RE: The Great Cookie Capers! - Dragonstrike - 06-24-2017
That explained a lot, actually. All those vague preliminary reports on the Cookie Thief that he'd read...they'd made very little sense by themselves, but everything slot into place neatly after that explanation. From the sound of things, though...it was more than just cookies. And Tandor, of all places, had apparently been experiencing a spike in crime? 'Guess Kellyn wasn't able to focus on his job as much once that nuclear crisis kicked off...but this guy? Helping clean up what was left? And exactly what is in those cookies?'
It's rather quiet as the motley group 'enjoys' their meal.
There's little else to say.
When it's all said and done, the agent stands. "Well, since you saved me the trouble of introducing myself, I have little reason to stay here except to enjoy the company. Now then, if you'll excuse me, I really must be going. Ta ta."
He activates a Smoke Ball hidden on his person, and disappears (along with absol) by the time the smoke clears. No need for prying eyes to see where he went and how he escaped.
It was time to get to work.
This thief wasn't the only one with eyes everywhere...

She's been there for relaxing and enjoying some time off after having a serious battle against a few Poison-Types, but I guess it's enough by now and she'd be rejoiced to be home again." ... "So if you'd be up to, we can meet sometime then. Or you just join me if you decide to sleep over at my place anyway... What do you think?"*Give Phantom a simply smile, bringing his hands together*
"And... it'll also give me the chance to ask you a thing about that new rival of yours. I never saw him before, after all, but I picked up he really knows his business."
"Oh, by the way, these Rame are plain awesome. We need to come back here once, alright? Next up, I guess I'll take that Four-Season-Soba-Menu for one person... "
Its nothing, I assure you. Being the Cookie Thief that I am, swiping Pokeball and saving my love is but a trite task!
*Tilts their head at them, giving them lidded smile*
Though, its so sastfying that it hardly matters. As for the data disk, I can get one of my ghosts to retrieve it for me, so we can just make the journey straight to your domain. My associates already have your place under watch, though; I'm not letting that bastard traitor get his hands on you ever again...
*Looks furious for a moment, before their expression smoothed out*
As for our upcoming marriage, if you are concerned about what your friends and co-workers think, we can alway hold the wedding in private ceremony. They know we work together, and might have a somewhat illicit relationship, but they don't have to have to have a piece of the cake if we don't invite them, correct?
*Enjoys their noodles for a bit, before continuing on with the conversation*
My acolyates...they will either our holy matrimony, or they will have to find another master to serve. My business associates don't care about my relationship, as long as I deliver the goods they desire, so no need to fret on that front.
*Leans over to cup Phantom's face with his hand, and plants a kiss on their lips*
I love you so much, Phantom. I would steal the stars and make a necklace out them for you to wear, if you would accept it. Heaven or Earth, Life or Death...nothing will stand between us, my sweetest desire.
*Seperates from them, and takes a sip of their drink*
I believe that, as my future wife, I should get comfortable in your own home. My own place is a bit...dreary for you sensibilities, so I'll just move in with you upon saying our vows. As for my new rival....
*Windos chuckles for a bit*
They has a certain flair to them that I like. I believe that we will have a wonderful time together, yes. I'm meeting up with them later on, so I'll inform you what I find out then, honeybunny. Now, let's finish our meal, and head on back home. I am eager to share a bed with you once more, you know~

*Nodds their head at them, waving to off as they prepared to leave*
A man of you prowess and dedication can not be kept from their job for any length of time, I see! Well, I did enjoy our lunch together, and I learned so much about you as well, so I would say it was a productive for the both of us, overall! I look forward to what you'll shake up here in Tandor! The region doesn't need any drama right now- heaven forbid we have another Nuclear Crisis on our hands- but a little more spice would certainly be nice!
*Watches them activate the Smoke Ball, seeing how he escaped, but choosing not to follow*
*Pours them some more wine, and take a long drink of it* Such a melodramatic escape...I love it! Until we meet again, Agent Dragonstrike....
*Chuckles to themselves, before ordering more food for himself, and finishing off the bottle of wine*
RE: The Great Cookie Capers! - Dragonstrike - 06-24-2017
That meeting might be sooner than expected.
From his years on the streets, the agent had amassed quite a collection of pokemon that could aid him in his more secretive missions. They were all experts at blending into the background, virtually untraceable.
And they were now all surveiling Bealbeach.
The thief had given the agent some valuable info. Phantom had the next day off, and the main base of operations for both the chief and the thief was in the coastal city. And Dragonstrike was going to have his pokemon keep an eye out for both her and her date.
One of his pokemon would see something. And when he found out where they were headed to, it'd be time to send in his eyes and ears...
RE: The Great Cookie Capers! - Dragonstrike - 06-25-2017
(Got around to reading about the prior chaos. Dang, that's some crazy stuff...)
Quick Flashback to before the stakeout!
Well, he had time to kill before the next day arrived and he needed to start staking out the city. So while the Chief was away from HQ, Agent Dragonstrike had, shall we say, let himself in (with the help of a Klefki) to view their records on the Cookie Thief. Interpol hadn't been able to give him squat on the guy aside from the basic information. Something seemed off here...and he didn't entirely trust Chief Phantom to let him read the records in full considering her involvement with the Cookie Thief...
As he read the records of the most recent event involving the thief, he couldn't believe his eyes. Pirates? A traitor? Something about the HQ getting completely destroyed in a matter of hours? 'How the heck did this not get noticed by Interpol? Must be something to do with the Cookie Thief...if he can wipe their records clean given enough time, he can probably keep information from leaking, too...I need to assume I'm completely compromised, it seems. No hope of contacting Interpol, no backup...just me, my wits, and my pokemon...'
He smiles.
'Just the way I like it. It's not the first time Interpol would have lost contact with me, and I always preferred those solo missions in the field, anyways. Now then, guess I better get out of here...still have no idea what the heck might be in these cookies, though...I'll have to find some time to analyze them, somehow...'
As he leaves the ranger HQ, it's as if he was never there...the ranger at the front desk was snoozing thanks to a Hypnosis from Gardevoir. His Luxray was ensuring nobody was following.
This is why Interpol had sent him.
Because they knew he'd get the job done, even if he had to go completely Off the Grid to manage it.
His seemingly endless resources, his huge number of useful pokemon, his quick wits and access to both Mega Evolution and Z-Moves...and his willingness to do whatever it took to complete the mission, no matter the cost.
He was sometimes called the 'Rogue Agent' by his superiors and coworkers, and with good reason. And what better way to capture a rogue than with another rogue?
RE: The Great Cookie Capers! - Lord Windos - 06-25-2017
Hmm, I wouldn't make a habit of breaking into Ranger Union for information, Agent Dragonstrike. If you needed any intel, I would have been more than happy to give it to you!
*The Cookie Thief was walking along side them, as if he had always been there*
Still, now that you are caught up with that total farce of a sting operation, perhaps I can count on your assistance in bringing in that bastard Xenoic, so I can wring his scrawny neck for dare hurting my lover.
*The Thief voice distorts into a nightmarous drone that would unnerve almost anyone listening in*
Hmm...if you are game for some jolly cooperation, meet me at the Rosmarinous for diner one night. I'll be bringing Phantom along this time, so that everyone important can get aquanted with the task at hand. How about Friday night? Good, see you then, my rival!
*The Cookie Thief is gone, leaving Dragonstirke alone with his Pokémon once more*
RE: The Great Cookie Capers! - Dragonstrike - 06-25-2017
'Arceus damn it. How the heck does he know these things?! *insert strong language here* That's going to make it really difficult to get the jump on him...well, guess I have a dinner appointment regardless of the results of that game, then...hmmm...Friday...what's today again? This...Xenoic is...concerning...anyone with the guts to try and kidnap the Chief Ranger right under the RU, the League, and Interpols' noses must be seriously confident in their abilities...'
It wasn't his original mission, but Interpol didn't know the full extent of the situation with the Cookie Thief. He still couldn't help but wonder what was in those damn cookies, though...what made them so important?
(so, the day of this stakeout/date. What day of the week are we going to call it?)

(Let call it Wednesday, so that your and Phantom's chara has a day to prepare for this! While the Cookie Thief can be anywhere, anytime due to his sheer skill, others don't share this blessing!)
Also, no need to get incensed with my behavior, my heroic rival. I'm just that good at my profession.
*Poof! Gone again!*

Day of first enounter with Agent Dragonstrike: Monday.
Ranger Chief's being out with the Cookie Thief on the same evening.
Day of Agent Dragonstrike and the Cookie Thief meeting at the restaurant to inform about the matters: Wednesday, 'breaking in' into my HQ *how dare yooouuuu* at the same day, just way later..
Ranger Chief's free day: Tuesday.
Appointment of Ranger Chief, Cookie Chief and Agent Dragonstrike at the same(!) Restsurant I've been kidnapped from: Friday.
Given me time to enjoy the free day and do what I wished to do as well as some time for our new Agent to mull things over.
RE: The Great Cookie Capers! - Dragonstrike - 06-25-2017
"A little TOO good if you ask me...what, can he read minds now?" It's all but a mumble to himself, though...well, it was time to play a little game of cat and mouse, then. Stakeout time. A boring time, but his favorite part was when he finally tracked down the culprit. Windos wouldn't be able to hide from him forever. And he knew exactly where he was going to position himself and Gardevoir, as well...
