[ The feed turns on to see a little, small room. There's a candle lit, and a girl's face complexly looking into the feed. A Sunkern in her hand chirps. It's obvious whoever is operating this thing doesn't really have much of an idea on good angles, or how to actually use the video camera. She turns the PCD to the ceiling, where a Woobat and a Shiny Zubat are both sleeping. It then turns again to see an Ekans wrapping itself tight around a sleeping Torchic before it turns back to Momo.

Once she has the feed pointing back at her, Momo blinks twice before beginning. ]

Is this... Is this on? Hello guys! Hmm, let's see! I'm Momo Hinamori! I've been mostly just trying to adjust and learn how to get settled in so I wouldn't ask any questions you guys probably heard a hundred times before! So, now, that I'm settled in, I kinda have a question. It's about Team Rocket...

[ She pauses. ]

They're charitable freelance dentists, right? [ ...Yeah. Leave it to Momo to be so off subject... ]

And, uh, have any of you ever got people from home come here but they're like younger than what they used to be? One of my close friends arrived here, except he was from a time where we were both in school. And then one of my friends showed up here as a little kid and then they both went home really quickly. Why do people show up here and just leave anyways?!

Also! If someone sees Princess Gorgeous - I think that's her name - please let me know I'm looking for her! She looks a lot like Hayate, except she's an impostor. [ She's very timid with this whole network thing. How many things does she talk about? When is it appropriate to end? ]

Ahh! Sorry for all of the questions, I guess I just have a lot on my mind! I'll talk to you guys all later! Thank you for listening! [ She kinda lingers on the feed for half a minute before realizing she needs to turn it off. So she'll fumble around with her pokegear until it actually turns off. ]

This so humiliating! I can't believe I was actually working for these guys! I thought they were dentists! Not harsh, evil people who like to inflict pain! [ ~~but really what's the difference~~. ]

[Maybe Tenten should be more upset, but then, she hasn't encountered Rocket personally herself. This could actually be a little useful!]

Hey, it's okay. I mean, if they never outright told you they were doing bad stuff, it was probably hard to tell.

[Though dentists, Momo, really?]

Do you know a lot about the people who are Rockets, though?

Yeah... I mean, they did tell me to pickpocket and stuff but I just brought them back clothes with really large pockets. They never said anything.... [ Besides heavy sarcastic praise. ]

I know some people who are rockets, and I've heard somethings about the higher ups.

[Tenten almost facepalmed. Almost. Were all shinigami like this?!]

Momo, pickpocketing means stealing. Like, grabbing stuff out of people's pockets without them noticing.

Do you think you could tell me about some of that? I know there's this one guy at least, who's been threatening one of my friends. Bowser, he's called. Do you know anything about him?

I know that! I just thought they meant it in a nicer way! After all, they gave me some pokemon and gave me my own room and some food and everything. I thought they'd be nice because of that. [ ....Yeah. Not all Shinigami are this naive. ]

Bowser! He stole some pokémon. I heard he just appeared a couple of months ago, but is very outwardly diabolic with his schemes. He's not high ranking, but people are taking notice of him. I know he's not one of the strongest rockets, but he is one of the stronger ones.

Right... okay, that's a little misleading. They just hired you without explaining more than that, though?

[She actually takes out a notebook to start writing that all down about Bowser, so she'd have actual physical evidence for Sasuke -- not quite Lee-style, but hey, this was actually useful!]

Taking notice of, like they might promote him or something? I'm sorry to keep asking, but I'm really worried about my friend.

[Tenten, don't even try emotional manipulation, it doesn't suit you. If this Bowser guy ever comes up against Sasuke directly, she's more worried about what the Uchiha rookie will do to him...]

They just had a note that I still have. Hold on, I'll try to get it out!

[ She fumbles out a note and holds it to the screen. ] I found it attached to the pokégear.

Don't worry about it! I'd be very concerned and willing to do whatever it takes to help my friend back. Was this the one whose pokémon was stolen? Sasuke? [ She does know this incident... primarily because she called him out and threatened to attack him. ] And yes, he has been getting hype of being promoted up a rank.

Wait, hold on, who's this 'Rocket Boss' guy?

[Alright, as weird as it would be, Tenten could see that being seen as not-suspicious. The other stuff was a definite tip-off, though!

She frowns and leans in closer at the mention of Pokémon being stolen, though.]

And Sasuke-kun didn't say that his Pokémon had been stolen! Only that Bowser sent him poisoned cookies that got his Pokémon and one of his friends really sick. I'll let him know, though... thanks a lot, Momo, you're a great help.

I'm not quite sure. I know a woman named Arianna is one of the leaders, she frequently gives out orders but she also implied that the organization is shared amongst four admins.

[ She quickly attaches an earlier post. ]

I'm not sure if he did or not. I thought it was implied, but Bowser definitely mentioned him in the post. He is a pokétheif and a criminal. I'm determined to stop him at all costs!

Arianna, and three other administrators...

[She writes that down, too, then holds up a finger for a wait a second gesture as she pulls up the video. Finally she's got a visual image of Bowser instead of just hearsay. She doesn't watch the reactions just yet, just Bowser's gloating speech, and her lip curls. What a moronic excuse for a villain. When it's finished, she makes sure to save it to look over more carefully later.]

But Momo... if you're on the same team as this guy, can you? I mean, it's not like you wanted to be there, but... are you going to be okay? It might be a better idea for you to try to get out of there.

[Using her as a mole had seemed like a good idea at the time, but she had a bad feeling that Momo would just get caught for it...]

I'm not sure. I guess I can sabotage them in secret! I know how to conceal my presence when it counts and my pokémon are skilled when it comes to making smog screens and the like... [ She kinda considers what she's doing. ] I'm a lieutenant of squad five, and one of the best disciples of Captain Aizen who is a prodigy! He'd be so proud of me if I stuck to my swords and fight evil! A Shinigami's duty is to fight evil!

If you think you're up to it, I'm definitely not going to discourage something like that. And any information you can get me, that'll be a huge help.

Just... be careful, Momo.

I will! I'm not reckless or anything! [ As long as Aizen isn't involved. ] We'll work together! I'll relay the information to you and others and then you guys can attack!

Yeah, that's a great idea. And you know Sasuke-kun, right? If for whatever reason you can't reach me, you can give any information to him, too.

[She's still not completely sure about Sora and Riku and Kairi for something like this... or Obito, Chuunin or not.]

But don't do anything to put yourself at risk. I'll make sure you always know my location, so you can get to me if you ever need to leave where you are, okay? I'm in Celadon right now.

I actually don't know Sasuke. I only heard of him, mostly because Bowser taunted him. We never met.

[ Even though Riku helps run the anti-rocket organization, only Momo should be trusted!!!!!! ]

Okay! I'll tell you my location too in case you ever want to meet up! I have a second uniform and we look like we're the same size so if you ever want to tour the base or something, just let me know! [ Yes, Tenten. She's suggesting you dress up with her in amazing, possibly pointless, espionage. ]

Short, black hair like feathers, [she held up her hands behind her head in a somewhat reasonable approximation of his duckbutt hair], is around my age and generally doesn't talk a lot. He'll have a headband like mine.

[If only someone had seen fit to tell Tenten about Riku doing that... All she's got is this idea of a guy who let his friend put ribbons in his hair while he slept.]

Got it! You never know, that might be useful someday.

[Sounds like a future mission!]

He looks like a duck....? [ That's just weird. ] I'll be sure to look out for a headband.

It might! Sometimes the least useful things turn out to be really really useful!

Only his hair looks like a duck. The headband's probably the easiest way to spot someone you can trust, if it's got this mark on it.

You never know! Infiltration was never something I did too much of, but how hard can it be?

Does he ever change the style? Or does it perpetually look like a duck? [ She notes the mark and draws a very similar copy of it. ]

I don't think it can be too hard. No one has said anything to me about how out of place I am here. [ And she is kinda sticking out like a sore thumb with her kind temperament. ]

I think it always looks like a duck, [she confirmed. Picturing Sasuke with any other style just seemed weird.]

Yeah... you definitely don't seem like a bad guy. I don't know how you could have ended up there in the first place.

Well, if it does look like a duck to me when I meet him, I'll be sure to tell you. [ Tenten: you will be vindicated! ]

Yeah... I wonder how rockets are selected in the first place. One of my best friends ended up as a Rocket too and he's not really a bad guy. He's a little too confident but that doesn't make him bad. [ In fact, they're both very vulnerable to emotional manipulation! ]

Great! [Yes! Assemble: Team Prove-the-Existence-of-Duckbutt!]

Who's that? Your friend? Do you think he could work with us?

My friend's name is Izuru Kira, and I'd like to think he'd help us, but he went home. [ Beat. ] So he can't. [ Sorry, Tenten ): ] We were briefly partners here! And now I have his pokémon so I guess I work as a one woman team!

Oh... I'm sorry I didn't get to meet him. But if you're able to train with his team, that's kind of like having him here, right?

It's okay, but I think you would get along. Or at least, you'd get along with how he used to be. He's a little different now. [ Like, he's majorly depressed now and she thinks Tenten doesn't have time for that. ] And yeah! Having his pokémon here kinda gives me a strong spirit! I can't ever let himself or myself down, because his team is now a part of mine!
