The Beans are Spilling (1/2)

"Don't ever enter my office!"

"Your father is the co-founder of Team Rocket…"

"We must know the secret of Battle Bond."

"What is it that makes the Katsuragis special?"

These faint voices echoed through the trainer's head. These quotes circulated in his thoughts as the revolution continued to shock him. Not only the dirty lies of his father are finally spilled but the many beans that also leaked the truth. He is trying to find a last bastion of coping mechanism in him, not even Leaf is his last tree. He tried to find it until there was one thing that stayed with him throughout the years, never leaving his side and always being truthful.

The scarf. It was a gift from a girl that he made a promise to. He'll be a Pokemon Master while she becomes a famous star. He wanted to be ready on the day that they'll meet, he was optimistic for the future but this grim present is anchoring him from the future above. He refuses to believe that one day, she might forget him, she might see him as a stranger wearing a scarf that she sees so familiar all the while having a gift from nobody.

"Gah!" Yoake quickly jerked off from his nap. He noticed that he was on top of a comfortable bed, still wearing his same clothes earlier. He was in a room, he couldn't tell where he was as this room looks like a typical room from a Kantonese apartment. White painted walls, wooden floors and casual wooden furniture. Beside him is a nightstand with a small flower on top of it.

"Where am I?" Yoake asked himself as he looked around with confusion. He scratched his head as he remembered what happened to him earlier.

"Sabrina!" Yoake stuttered as he remembered Alakazam putting him and Claudine asleep. He clenched his fist as he now had frustration brewing in his guts as he wanted to know where Sabrina is.

"Claudine… WHere are you?!" Yoake shouted. His voice echoed throughout the room, trying to find an escape but to no avail. HIs sense of hopelessness slowly dropped in his thoughts as he feared the worst might come.

The silence of the room was cut short as a knock from a nearby door bursted and made the trainer's snucked in as he wanted to be prepared for any possible hand-to-hand combat.

The door opened and instead of Sabrina appearing, it was a tall shadowy woman. She has long blonde hair with a C-cup bust size as if she appears to be an icon of some sort. She has a black beret hat with the familiar Big Red R on its side. She's wearing a black sleeveless vest with an Iron Cross and an R on her left chest, she's wearing black long sleeves to compliment the vest alongside wearing a black pencil skirt and high heels.

Behind her was a team of grunts, they were wearing assault vests with full black clothing with the addition of a black neck gaiter. They have guns in their arms, as if they are keeping sure that Yoake is not leaving this facility.

"Mister Yoake Katsuragi. It seems that you're finally awake." The woman greeted the trainer.

"What happened? How long have I passed out? Where am I?" Yoake began to barrage her with questions as he was paranoid about the current situation. She was silent for a moment as she allowed him to breathe from his sudden panic.

"All questions will be entertained later. For now, you must follow my orders. Don't even bother about escaping as our facility is highly secured so resisting my orders is futile." She told the trainer as she revealed a pair of hand-cuffs.

Realizing that he can't do anything about it, he sighed as he stood up from his bed and headed to the woman. She hand-cuffed him and escorted him out of the room, the door closed shut as the trainer, for the first time, saw the Team Rocket HQ.

"Follow me, the commander is waiting for us." She said while escorting the trainer through the HQ.

As much as Yoake wanted to talk, he decided to shut his mouth and observe the HQ as they walked through the long hallways. Behind them were the guards, watching and keeping an eye on Yoake to ensure that he doesn't pull anything sneaky.

The hallway is filled with scientists, guads, plants and some Magnemites floating through the ceiling. He was impressed and initially thought that this place is a laboratory of some sort.

It didn't take long as they reached an elevator, the woman pressed the Up button for the elevator and waited for it to open. Yoake looked at the woman but she didn't stare back. She looked at the elevator door as it opened, she stepped on to the elevator, which Yoake and the guards followed.

The door slowly closes and the elevator rises from the current floor to the executive floor, the floow where the admin, executive and high ranking members of Team Rocket's offices are placed. He was nervous as his mind was having a perpetual storm of emotion. The thought of his father being a founder of an evil organization is nightmarish for his future plans, life and goals as he thought that he could just be a pawn of his father's grand scheme.

"Nervous?" She asked the trainer. She was staring blank at the elevator door while asking the question.

"Yeah…" He answered to the woman.

"Don't be. Everything will be clear to you even if the truth might shatter your last remaining grasp on everything you know about your family." She assured the trainer. Her calm deep voice was smoothing to the trainer's ears, he couldn't tell why but her voice is very angelic to him.

"Natsume exaggerated too much about the truth. She really likes to put fear on kids." She sighed.

The elevator door opened and the first thing they were greeted by was a Noibat. Flapping its wings as it greets the group, the group walked in and headed to the commander's office.

As the door opened, they were greeted by an office. With a black long desk at the center, a Yin-Yang carpet on the floor, cabinets filled with files and a window that gazes upon the city at the back. There was also a chair near the desk, it was turned around as if the person that is sitting on it is staring at the public above or he/she is waiting for their arrival.

"Father?" The first thing that Yoake said. He assumed that the person sitting on the chair is his father, afterall, the revelations earlier would just make sense that he is still running the scheme behind his back, away from the truth and avoiding him as a whole.

"Ahh yes, Yoake Katsuragi. It's been a long time since the last time we met." A familiar voice echoed through the office. The chair slowly faced towards them and revealed the man that he fought when Claudine nearly died. That White hair and Blue devilish eyes, it was him.

"Guards. Leave us alone. Rie, uncuff the boy and take your leave as well." He said. The guards nodded and headed to the elevator while Rie, the blonde woman, uncuffed Yoake and also headed to the elevator. It closed and descended as the two were alone in the man's office.

"I'm guessing you want to know the full truth huh? Why is Team Rocket still operating after so many disbands? What's the connection between Us and the Katsuragis? What is Battle Bond? And your most important question, ``Who is your father?" He began to bombard the trainer with the question in his thoughts as if he was reading his mind.

"I ughhh. Yeah. But first, where is Claudine?!" Yoake demanded the man as he wants to know where his Pokemon is, and to ensure that she is safe.

"No need to worry, She'll be with us in a few minutes. For the meantime, I recommend you take a seat." He assured the trainer that his Pokemon is safe. Yoake looked at a chair that was standing adjacent to the desk. He sat on the chair and continued the discussion with the commander.

"How can I be sure that you're telling the truth?" Yoake asked as he felt suspicious on how Team Rocket, a wicked organization that is known to be secretive and malicious, easily opens classified info to some random trainer.

"You still doubt your family's history huh? Here, how about you take a look at this then." The commander sighed as he leaned backward for a moment, opened a drawer in the desk, revealed a folder from it, and placed it on top of the desk so that the trainer could browse it.

It was a big and old folder. Its brownish appearance gives the feeling that this folder has been rotting in the deep storage of the HQ. It was thick, it had a width of 2 to 3 cm. Yoake's eyes were locked tight on the folder as he realized this folder is key to everything he needs to know about Battle Bond, His family and its history.

"Come on. Open it." He told the trainer.

Yoake took a deep breath and slowly opened the folder and it revealed a complete bio of his father with his picture, a younger picture of him, like he was in his 20s. He looked at the name and was shocked.

"Takeshi Katsuragi?" Yoake read the real name of his father.

Yoake was confused after reading his father's true name. He was in disbelief, throughout his entire life, all he knows is Trevor is his father but Takeshi? Was he the man before Trevor? Why didn't he tell him about this? He continued to browse his father's bio and notice his nationality.

"UN/KN?" Both are the acronyms of Unovan and Kantonese respectively. His father is a Unovan, just like his Grandfather. Yet he isn't Unovan and his father hid it from him and his sister. By the rule of blood, he should have Unovan citizenship as well yet it didn't happen.

He felt somewhat of a discomfort after reading his father's biography, he places the folder on top of the desk and slowly backs away from the shocking revelation.

"The truth hurts, doesn't it? Your father is two different people, one has a life of crime while the other has a family. However, he killed Takeshi with regret." The commander said. Yoake looked at him with confusion as the boy slowly learned about his father's true self.

"Killed?" He gave an emphasis on the word 'killed' as if it was symbolic of something.

"Regret? Tell me now. What's my father's life before I was born? Or even him meeting my Mother. I want to know everything!"

A/N: Hello everyone, author here. Sorry for the late update. I'm so busy at the moment and I couldn't find time to write a chapter properly but luckily, I managed to snitch 3 days to write this and the next chapter (which will be released next week).

For the meantime, I'm currently pushing this fanfic to be also published in Wattpad to widen the audience and possibly, get better connection to you guys since I noticed that most of the comments are from the first chapters which made me think, is there something limiting or a problem in the fanfic? So I decided that I will also publish the fanfic in wattpad since connection between the reader and the author is easier than here.

The chapters will be published on a daily basis so the fanfic can keep up the algorithm until it reaches the same chapter as this in Webnovel.

I will post an update about it in the next chapter.

Thanks for reading, see ya in the next chapter!

Update 2: I just extended the chapter since the next chapter's theme is gonna be different from this but it will still follow the revelation. I will publish the next chapter next week so don't worry!
