Team Rocket's objective, the trio joins forces

"You're... the little girl?!"

The Team Rocket Trio stared at her in sudden shock. Akari blinked, looking just as confused. "Uh... do we know each other?"

But those words seemed to trigger a routine. They tossed aside the honey they were holding, struck poses, and took turns speaking!

"We heard the sound of 'Uh... do we know each other?'!"

"So we appeared at the speed of light!"

"O wind!"

"O earth!"

"O sky, meow!"

"Cut! Cut! Cut! Author, cut this part!"

Mingyou hurriedly interrupted the Team Rocket Trio's chant. If it wasn't the classic "Prepare for trouble" opening, he didn't want to hear it.

Clearly, his interruption failed. The Team Rocket Trio ignored everyone else's embarrassment and finished their introduction.

"Jessie!"

"James!"

"Meowth, that's meow!"

"Soras!"

The Team Rocket Trio finished their routine with a Wobbuffet, and Jessie pointed at Akari. "How did we run into you here, too? Where are that twerp and Pikachu?"

"What are you talking about? And did I just hear that Meowth speak?"

Akari still looked adorably lost. She had no idea what was going on. The talking Meowth paused, then finally noticed the problem.

"Wait, meow..."

"What's wrong?"

"She looks a lot taller than the little girl. They really do look alike, but she's obviously a bit more mature, meow."

"Now that you mention it... she does look more like a woman."

Jessie gave Akari another look, then waved a hand. "Her figure can't compare to mine, but it's much better than the little girl's. And even in this heat, she dresses pretty conservatively. That little girl wears a miniskirt and bares her thighs even in winter."

James snapped his fingers, as if he had solved the mystery. "I get it! They must be sisters. We should call her the big girl!"

"???"

Akari
