[Game] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure: Celadon City Vandel

[Lord Windos]

Giovanni was silent as you said you story, growing more and more interested in what you had to say, especially when you went into detail about her Memories of Creation; he leaned up out of his chair at that bit of info. He swiftly sat back down, though, and frowned thoughtfully when you declared that your mission, while technically being complete, ended in failing the spirit of its intension: acquiring the power for Team Rocket's use. Finally, as you gave a brief analysis of your own brand new powers and the complete loyalty of Mew to you, the Boss eyes widened almost imperceptively, and his hands clench together hard enough you could see the veins in them. That got their attention, loud and clear.

Silence. Dead Silence. It dragged and lingered between the two of you, and just as it seemed like Giovanni was just planning the most creative way to strangle you to death, he let out a sigh: disappointed, but not furious or diabolical like you expected. Re-adjusting themselves in their chair properly, they looked at you appraisingly for a moment, before they spoke at length about the information you told him. "....Ultimately, while Mew has been rendered functionally useless for what her intended purpose and design was in my organization, you still fulfilled the mission I sent you on. Since I never specified as to how to capture and treat the target, I suppose its my fault for this mess that has formed from this...let's call it their Primal Episode, just for simplicity's sake. I'm displeased by this turn of events, to say the least, but I will not punish you for doing what I poorly command you to do. "

"However, there is another benefit to this situation I never thought I would have access to, at least not for decades in the future: A Chosen One. I don't believe you are familiar with the concept, so let me enlighten you. A Chosen One is Pokémon, or sometimes more rarely a human, that has been singled out by any of the known Legendaries in existence for one reason or another. Be it their accomplishments, how devout they been to their creed, or and irresitable attractions between the two, a Legendary bestows upon them great power in exchange for their service. Often their powers mirror that of their 'Patron Diety' , and as they grow more experience and develop that special bond, those traits grow ever stronger, resulting in a being able to wield the full might of the Legendary. Some become Arbitors of theirs , meeking out judgement in there place or making decrees with the interest in mind. Other become their Head Priest, spreading its Legend's influence throughout the land to draw as many people to it as possible. Finally, other act as their Intermediaries, taking their place in conflicts of interest, and just being entrusted to carry out their will unto the world."

"What you described happened to you, and to your impromptu bond with Mew, sounds like a classic case of a Blessing to me. What is strange, though, is that rather than being given to you by her, you somehow managed to take it without implicit permission, terms, or even the knowledge that such a monumentous event was transpiring. If I were to make a simple guess, your  strength of will or some inner force within you somehow not only buffered the overflow of Mew's Primal Power to you, but actively facilitated the control of it. If this is true, then you quite literally forced a reversal of the Chosen One status: you choose Mew as your Pokémon, and rewarded them by stemming the outflow of power with your own, and offering them want they truly wanted. As a result of that and the prior bond of camraderance, it was all but inevitable that you would end up together as Partners, rather then unequals. In all the history of the world, this is utterly unprecedented! The fact that you were able to so easily wield the Power of Creation, even if it was but for a moment, while Mew was unable too...hehehe. Perhaps your bond with them will serve Team Rocket more good than harm in the long run. And this is on top of your powers to telepathically command an army of Pokémon! I was right about you...you have so much untapped potential, just waiting to be put to good use."

A deep, booming chuckle resonated between the connection, causing the Boss imagine to flicker wildly for a bit, before it restablized into a crisp picture once more. "As such, I believe you deserve several rewards for this fine accomplishment of yours. I'm sending you one of my personally trained Rhydon as additional support on your missions, and I'll entertain one request from you right now. I have all afternoon free, so please, take your time thinking what you truly desire..."
