[attr="class","knoxpost"]lena yips and halts her steps. the sound of leaves crunching hits knox as he stills his own footsteps. he turns his head, reaches for a nearby bush and tugs down on some of the branches. lena wriggles under his feet and worms her way to the other side. 

she comes toe to toe with a dragon. and an unfriendly one at that. it takes a swipe at her with its claws and she cries as they rake across her side. 

knox swears and scrambles. "take advantage of proximity. give it an ice fang." she grimaces through the pain and follows orders, whipping around to sink icy teeth into the dragon's side. 

it snarls as icicles pierce its thick hide easily. frost puckers around the wound and it backpedals, giving lena enough time to summon a flurry of ice shards and blast them in its direction. the druddigon holds up its arms and attempts to brace the storm, eyes closing as it grimaces through the pain. 

but lena is relentless, shards twisting through a blast of icy wind. shards pierce every inch of its body and it falls to its knees, unconscious. 

knox finally manages to shove his way through the bush. he calls lena to him and she shows him her side. her hind leg is mangled pretty badly and he grimaces. "sorry, girl. rest up for me, okay?" he puts her back in her ball and looks up at the dragon. 

might fetch a nice price.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]a chill wind passes through him. he bundles himself tighter and looks down at the glaceon trotting happily in front of him. she yips cheerfully at the same stiff breeze that makes knox shudder. 

though he's a fan of ice-types, he still can't quite get used to the cold. something about his blood being thin. 

lena keeps her nose to the air and scents for any wild pokemon around. he's only interested in one, but he's curious to see what else the current safari selection has to offer.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]ayame is there to remind him that he's currently stuck in a very horrifying reality. either that or she's playing a nasty trick on him. but, given that he's a potential dealer for her, he decides that that's probably not the case. 

which brings him back to the fact that there is a horrifying flesh monster descending on his pikachu. 

"double kick it!" his plea is desperate and captain acts on reflex only, thankfully. she leans to the side and twists, raising her feet to send two swift roundhouse kicks to the thing's face. 

and while it blunders backwards, knox sees a...glitch? like a mirage fading at the corner of his vision. but he doesn't have time to think on it. because the monster careens back towards them. now that the spell has been broken, captain starts running.

the twineedle from ayame's beedrill puts some distance between the monster. knox fumbles through a doorway and realizes he's stumbled into the girl's bedroom. 

"this thing's gonna tear your house apart if we fight it in here," he says.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]curiosity killed the cat. he could be holding gold in his hands. or maybe it's fool's gold. he knows next to nothing about the woman. 

summer would know. summer would've investigated, would've ripped her apart and pieced her back together so that she knew exactly who she was dealing with.  but he's not summer.

and so he holds this baggie in his hands and he's thinking fuck, maybe i could try just a bit. never test the product. never test an untested product. but he's already put so much toxicity in his body, what's one more taste? 

memory loss. 

his eyes harden. he's not in the business of dealing with roofies. he tosses it on the table. 

"won't move product like that," he says, but she's already up, telling him about something else. 

and then there's a crash.

captain, who'd been exploring the woman's curious apartment, comes bounding up to knox. he stands and hurries over to the bottom of the stairs next to ayame, peers up the staircase. 

captain, ever the brave, leaps up the stairs two at a time, leaving knox to mutter a few choice words before following her up. his expression pales as he rounds around the corner. captain, at his feet, shivers, rooted to the spot in fear as the monstrosity wheels on them, gaping, fleshy mouth gnarled with teeth, smiling, leering, tottering towards them. 

"what the fuck," he screeches and stumbles backwards and wonders, briefly, if he had tried some of that mystery drug.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]he has something important he should be doing. but that's in the back of his head. it's in another lifetime. another lifeline. that's what he needs. a lifeline. 

the call can wait. the job can wait. can it? 

he laughs giddily and the world shrinks back down with a pop. heat on the side of his jaw, on his mouth, the tip of his finger. his eyes sparkle and he laps up the rest of the powder, gums tingling. 

he allows himself to be pulled. (it's not me. it's the universe. it's the universe telling me what to do, doing this to me, undoing me.)

he's jostled as they walk, but he doesn't feel the elbows, the stumbling feet. his other hand presses against the small of the boy's back and he nips at his neck, eyes half-narrowed. 

"but what's the rush?" he whispers harshly in his ear.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]that's right, blue. take the easy way out and let her do all the fighting for you.

"shut the fuck up," he mutters to summer's ghost. she's not here and he knows this, but still he swears he can hear her snicker. wherever she is. she always knows where he is, what he's up to. hell, she may have been the one to tip the league off on his whereabouts. 

it wouldn't be the first time she threw him under the bus for her own amusement. 

but he tosses that aside for the moment and actually thanks her silently, because without her, this next part would be more difficult. 

he breezes past the main doors, shoving the full weight of his lean body into the glass. and then he's stumbling outside, tripping his way up onto the bike. it revs under his touch. he twists and the tires squeal as he turns suddenly. 

his leg comes dangerously close to skidding across the ground, but he finds his balance and ducks down, blasting through the glass doors and  narrowly past the shelgon. he manages to clip the cadet on the foot as he comes to a stop and the man yowls as he goes down. 

captain leaps onto his back and knox yells, "get on now."

[attr="class","knoxpost"]it's a small operation, no doubt, but there are still guards. one of them must have heard the walkie because they come face to face with a shelgon and a liepard. knox stops, glances at eden. 

captain bounds in front of him, cheeks puffing. she cries out as she rockets towards the liepard and hits it, rough and tumble, with a strong slam

while she entertains one of the attackers, knox looks around for anything that might be useful to them. 

there's a motorcycle a few paces ahead and, luckily, it looks like its keys are in the ignition. probably this cadet's, he realizes. it's a good thing summer had a bike. 

"distract 'em. i'll get us a ride," he yells and sprints for the vehicle.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]he's still scraping himself off the floor while eden faces their adversaries. and he wants to help and captain is pulling him, begging him to pay attention, but he has his hands on his prize and he's folding it carefully into his back pocket because he's not going to use it. he's going to sell it, all of it, (most of it), some of it so that he can scrape by, even if it's for just a few months. 

captain doesn't even need to release a charge. the bodyguards fall and knox stands up straighter, wipes at his puffy face. they hadn't even had to resort to violence. 

he grabs his jacket off the ground, though, and yanks it back on. and then he gracelessly steps over the slumped bodies and totters into the adjacent room. 

a quick scan shows his belt on the table. he grabs for it and for anything else that might look useful and jogs back out, looking winded. 

"i dunno if his walkie went off. we gotta go. now."

[attr="class","knoxpost"]fuck, fuck, fuck. he struggles against his bonds and all they can do is laugh at him. he can't even touch the shit that's in front of him, but it has its claws in him. it has him--hook, line, and sinker. and he shakes his legs, screams as he curls in on himself, as his body involuntarily shudders. 

his captors take the information and leave him in the cell to rot, laughing at his desperation. 

he raises his head, bleary-eyed from tears, and grimaces. "f--it's not--a mirror." he looks past her, at the two-way glass spreading across the room. a switch flicks. two league officers are suddenly staring at them from the other side of the room. he struggles. 

"they knew there were two of us, saw you when i got off." he lies through his teeth. captain has clambered down at this point, is gnawing through his bonds. he scoops her up, grabs the baggie on the ground before his feet, stumbles. 

"they have lena and the others somewhere." the two officers block the door. 

"fuck."

[attr="class","knoxpost"]he doesn't break. 

'we're not going to hurt you. we just need to know where you got these from.' suitcase in hand. lights flash in his eyes--too bright. he winces. they rip his jacket off, expose his torso. one of them sucks in a breath. fuckin' junkie. 

they find out how to make him talk. 

x x x

captain is perched on eden's shoulder. she doesn't have as acute a nose as lena or blue, but she'll be damned if she lets them take her trainer away from her. 

she directs eden as best she can--through instinct, smell, sound, anything.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]the pikachu panics, understandably. she mewls as she watches their hands go over knox, as the growlithe spit embers at him in warning. lena had slipped past the doors and the glaceon dares put up a feeble fight before she's overwhelmed. 

her body hits the ground, unconscious, as the subway disappears into the tunnel. captain struggles, cheeks sparking, but she doesn't let the electricity out. instead, she slumps in eden's arms and grips her tightly, tail and ears quivering. 

she looks solemnly up at her and warbles a cry.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]"the past, yeah." he can't tell past, present, future apart. that's what happens when you've been in a haze for too long. he looks down at his hands, at the fingers entwined with eden's. and suddenly he's twelve again, holdings hands with a girl and wondering why it didn't feel right

and he stares and he blinks and his eyes gather tears, but that's a long, long time ago. now, now, knox is stoic, is cracking that bigass smile and pretending like everything's okay. 

he kisses her cheek and releases her hand, picks up the suitcase. there's only one other person in the car with them. the elderly woman is dozing off. 

"meet me at the next stop, 'kay? i just gotta set this down and then we can settle in for the night." 

and then the subway stops. he grins at her over his shoulder; captain comes to, tail twitching as she's roused by the screeching. and in her sleepy state, she's slow to notice the growlithe hiding in the shadows, trainers waiting for the suitcase to change hands.

the subway doors close right as league personnel descend on knox, dispatching him quickly, and cuffing him even quicker. 

he doesn't look back, for fear of giving eden away.

[attr="class","knoxpost"]"don't worry," he says. the subway systems are still open at this hour. he takes her hand again, shouldering the bag to his side. captain grumbles as he's jostled and he moves more delicately. 

he leads them down a set of stairs to the subway platform and they stand, waiting for the tram. "you ever wonder how things could have been different?" he says suddenly. "y'know, if we all stayed in touch? if we...did something different? ran off like we all said we would?" 

he looks...morose. far away. and then he snaps back as the rails screech. he jerks his chin. "c'mon."
