celebratory drinks aren't on the menu tonight but he makes an exception because he needs a little assistance from a familiar source to help deal with these idiots. with the aforementioned bottle of beer, he pops the cap open with his fingers and downs about half while he listens to his trusted head scientist and to some extent adviser.

he almost laughs at the mention of the power plant. "fairly sure it's down." he gestures back towards the docks because he was there when it happened. darkness is not a foe but it is also not an ally; to try and tilt the scales would be considered foolish. and dangerous.

"don't get your hopes up." 

his gut never lies.

the ringing of their phones only confirm it. he reads the text twice perhaps out of disbelief that his grunts, his underboss would be so. fucking. stupid. rage boils to the surface and he doesn't control it. he can't.

"fuck!" 

the bottle shatters beneath him, scattering into tiny pieces as shards of glass look to crawl away. he won't let it. his boot crunches what remains as he takes a step away from desmond -- he respects gramps too much to lay a finger on him. at least for now.

but words are off limits.

"you should have been there, kelley! stupid fucking shits!"

the old bloodworth home is nothing more than a base because of the safety it brings. no one knows of its importance, not even desmond, and he intends to keep it that way because weaknesses can be exploited, and in this day and age, death usually comes from it.

there's too much work to be done to be lounging around. which is why he's on his phone outside, speaking to various people about various matters that take up far too much of his time. by the time he hangs up, desmond has already made his presence known to the child.

but silas doesn't make his presence known yet. he stands waiting behind a corner, listening as his fingers tap away at his phone, too preoccupied to entertain desmond or nyx at the moment. but he listens.

it's not a face he recognizes so his defenses remain up, guarding him from the possibility of an ambush. "you should," is his first response because that's the default he turns to: isolation. but something about the kid intrigues him because he stands there not frightened, but guarded, just like silas is.

"it's fine." 

he takes a single step to the side, allowing the kid to join him if he so wishes. his eyes never once leave the kid because doing so would be a mistake. his guards remain up; defenses at the ready to retaliate at any given moment.

"your name." 

to put to a face.

for the most part, slateport is nothing but an abandoned city left to rot and disappear. with buildings destroyed and history erased, there looks to be not much hope left for the city. but some monuments still remain, unwilling to be made into nothing but dust and memories.

the lighthouse is one of them. it stands strong, firm, untouched by the violence and the thralls that he enacted upon the city. perhaps, for a reason.

he stands at the top of the lighthouse peering out at the vast sea as he watches the waves roll, the buoys bounce, wondering, pondering on his next plan of action because while slateport is theirs, it's not enough. it'll never be enough.

but, he hears a creak behind him from the wooden stairs that lead up to him. he turns without an ounce of fear in him because no one poses a threat to him. no one.

"who's there?"

none of them are able to skip past this routine. this regime. all of them suffer but they come out of a weapon.

"if i see you, i'll hurt you." 

kecleon is no exception: it has to go through the same thing if it wants to remain alive because silas has no use for trash on his team. if they can't even survive this then he cannot put his trust into them to protect him when it matters the most.

metang floats in wait, ready with a BULLET PUNCH should it come to it. but the steel-type is hoping it doesn't. kecleon's scared, as it should be, but its CAMOUFLAGE soon takes its effect.

it's passable but it's not good enough.

a sigh brings forth a BULLET PUNCH.

it's not nyx who handles the battle with grace and power but her absol because that's what's expected of it. absol is his to own just like how hoenn is his to own. anything and anyone that lives and breathes in it will answer to him. nyx is no different and perhaps that's why he feels so strongly about her.

the scyther runs but he doesn't let it escape. it belongs to him.

whistle.

metang closes the distance within seconds and downs the bug-type with a BULLET PUNCH. the single attack isn't enough to please him and metang knows it -- it senses it. more BULLET PUNCHES are delivered until nothing remains of scyther but a splat in the earth.

"never let your opponents escape unless you plan to use them. you should learn that." he says to nyx as he approaches her. "but, you handled it well enough."

i love you.

three words evoke a shade of darkness within him that he's spent so long caging up. vexation overcomes him as he bursts forward with malicious intent, squeezing her jaw only to dig out the pill before she can swallow.

"stupid. stupid. stupid. so fucking stupid." 

nothing can clear the red he sees.

"why did you say that? why did you fucking say that?" 

his hand never leaves her throat though the pressure he applies is ample, almost calculated. she can't move under his touch. he won't allow for it.

each breath he exhales is a desperate cry for help to calm him down, to snap him out of his rage but he can't feel it. he can't feel anything other than a burning sensation: a white, hot, searing bubble that won't explode. so he bursts it the only way he know how.

he doesn't have to claim her: she has always been his.

stupid. absolutely fucking stupid. incompetence can only be excused once, twice maybe under the right circumstances, but this time, this particular time, incompetence cannot be excused because incompetence is what led to failure.

and silas never fails. never.

but he's tired of it: of failing, of finding someone to assign blame to because this time it isn't just a singular person. surprisingly, it's not just who fails. her punishment, like all the others, will come later, but for now he has his eyes set on a peculiar boat lingering out in the near distance.

silence fills the air once he nears.

"shame you weren't there to babysit them because fuck they needed it." he vents out his frustrations as he kicks a random cooler that probably contains a few beers for desmond's little celebratory party. "they're so fucking useless. you understand, don't you?" 

he breathes, taking a single step towards gramps.

"no, it isn't." 

he hits her in her jaw, looking to crack and dislocate because it's what she fucking deserves. it comes out of nowhere: he lashes out in an instance and he knows for a fact that she'll be caught off guard. her confidence is admirable but like nikolai, it blinds her from the truth.

his knuckles tense under the impact but it's a feeling he's used to. he's also used to how ezra should feel: not betrayal, but perhaps something as venomous.

"you had to listen to your ego. you just had to." he spits as he closes the distance, not yet drawing his hand back for another punch but the threat is there. "what did i say? what did i order you to do?" he reaches down to grab her by her collar. he knows she'll allow it because she's his lapdog.

she listens and obeys.

he doesn't give her a chance to respond before throwing another blow, this time to her gut. he releases her afterwards and allows her to react to it.

"don't call me that."

silas, boss, brother—esser doesn't deserve the luxury nor the right to call him anything. he will not be acknowledged by sub-tier disappointments, especially not by garbage. but, he reminds himself that she's his sister, and that by some unforgiving curse the universe gave him, he shares the same blood as her.

mediocrity runs in his blood and that only serves to infuriate him.

"you should've."

he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a single, plain, white pill and tosses it at her. they  both know what it is: it's something that'll end both their pains.

"take it."

but esser doesn't want to die. not yet. he knows it and she knows it: she also knows an alternative to dying; a compromise, if one could call it that.

it's a compromise silas is willing to accept if esser is willing to give.

before much else can be done, he's forced to react to the sudden appearance of two more pokemon, though this time they're far more hostile and he sees it instantly.

"careful, nyx." 

his hand immediately finds his pokeball. he's focused on the scyther and is about to order his metang to pummel it into oblivion but his eyes catches a disturbance; a little outline that's barely visible but he sees it.

whistle.

metang flies forward with a METEOR MASH but not towards the scyther, but towards the CAMOUFLAGED kecleon. it's not nearly subtle enough to avoid the wary eyes of the rocket boss. it doesn't survive long after that. he captures it regardless.

scyther is left for nyx to handle. if she wants to stay in rocket she needs to know how to survive.



capturing kecleon!

he reaches their pier where he's supposed to start his new life; his assigned life, but it's not like he hasn't fought it before. it always leads to nowhere. maybe in a different life but not this one: this is not his life to live.

"i don't want to go." 

he says it again for deux, for himself, as he steps onto the wooden docks. a boat awaits him, but he stops before it, scared to take another step forward.

the third and final sign is what ushers him forward. it's the final push he needs to accept his new life. deux takes care of the sharpedo and he catches it as a memory, as a reminder of what his life once was.

what it could have been.

slateport is theirs and ezra thinks she's the one who claimed it; but things aren't ever as simple as they seem because behind his silence is hidden rage that has long festered over the past few days; a rage that's ready to lash out at one of the many who caused it.

ezra might have been successful in her mission in one regard but in another, she failed.

she failed him.

and he'll make her pay for it.

darkness engulfs the entire city of slateport; even the building isn't spared as he's forced to climb a spiral of stairs that lead up to the top.

twenty fucking floors, but he climbs. it allows him ample time to let that very rage boil, rising to the surface as his footsteps carry him upwards. each step echoes off the small confines of the stairwell, growing louder and louder with every passing moment and soon enough, he finds himself at the very top.

they aren't alone in the darkness.

"congratulations, ezra."

his body tells him to flee, to run as fast as he can but his heart stops him. he can't bare to leave this place; he has to, but he'll drag it out for as long as possible and enjoy what little of it he has left.

the night sky and how it's littered with bright stars; the low hue of lights illuminating from within buildings; it kills him that he has to leave but he isn't brave enough to fight back.

he's scared of dying.

scrafty is another sign, another pokemon that appears to rush him out of the city. its FOCUS PUNCH is interrupted before it even has a chance to start its attack.

once again, deux ends the battle before it even begins.
