He woke up when the headache overpowered his unconsciousness. His sight was blurry, and his head felt heavy; he could immediately tell something was wrong from the way it throbbed. Not just from a headache, but from accumulated blood.

It didn't take him long to figure out he was upside down, stuck to the ceiling through ice around his feet. Luckily he had been wearing snow boots. Otherwise, he might have woken up to frostbitten feet.

His attention was drawn away from his feet to the icy stone beneath him as the sound of droplets of blood landing upon soil reached his ears, only then noticing that his headache was not coming from inside his head, but from crack someone had given him across the noggin.

Someone or something.

Slowly dragging his gaze around the area, the youth felt a stones fall in the pit of stomach as he noticed he wasn't the only one in this sorry situation. Several other bodies hung from the rocky ceiling, some of which he even recognized from when he was first assigned the search and rescue mission.

Well, he had found them. Now he just had to rescue them... from whatever was kidnapping them.

Where was his partner...? He remembered them being separated due to a hail-ful blizzard.

Reaching into his jacket, the youth produced his Poke-Nav, activating the SOS function upon it as he sent a message to his partner.

'Found the victims. Help.'

With his hands cusped around his mouth, Mason bellowed out his partner's name once more. "DOUG?!" The sound of his voice rippled through the air, scaring off a few duckletts from a nearby pine tree. Just hours ago the two were sent out, both laughing and hollering, exchanging their fair share of wild stories as they made their way through the snow. That is, until a blizzard broke out and separated the two of them from each other.
[break][break]
His eyes glanced over to the right of him. Next to him stood a ranger he found after hail storm had occurred. Thankfully, with her help, Mason had escaped an early frost bite related death. “By the way, thanks for saving me, I really appreciate it.”
[break][break]
“Don’t worry even about it! If anything, if it weren’t for Doomalida, I wouldn’t be here either” she chuckled. And it was true. During the hail storm, when conditions began to toughen up, it was the ranger’s houndoom that provided warmth for the duo through creating a makeshift campfire.
[break][break]
Ping. The abrupt sound of a notification snatched away his attention from the ranger. He roughly plucked his Poke Nav from his pocket, flipped it opened, and quickly scanned the message. SOS message: 'Found the victims. Help.'
[break][break]
He gulped.
[break][break]
After hurriedly showing the ranger the message, Mason was informed that he was going to go back to the nearby ranger base and retrieve some back up and supplies. While he was instructed to follow him back, the brunette promptly refused, as he couldn’t sit around and wait. He wasn’t much of the heroic type, but for whatever, he had decided to don a cape today.
[break][break]
Upon the Ranger’s departure, Mason reached into his pocket and released Polo from his ball. “Do you think you can track this?” He brought a glove up to his Pokémon nose. It was Doug’s. After the Hail storm had passed over, Mason had returned to the place he last remembered being with his partner and found his glove settled on top of the snow. Polo nodded at his trainers question, sniffed the glove for a minute, then began rummaging through the snow. Similar to what they were doing before (with the ranger’s houndoom), Polo would first sniff the area and determine if there was a trail. If there wasn’t any hint of Dougness in the area, they would move forward and attempt to search for clues elsewhere. Fuck fuck fuck. Where the hell did you go, man?

The SOS was sent. All that was left was for him to wait. Or make Mason's job easier and break himself and the kidnapees out.

"... Ugh. Hate bein' responsible." Said Doug in a grumble. His head felt like it was splitting, which given the blood on the floor might well have been a real possibility, and his feet were frozen to the ceiling.

Not only that...

His Net Balls were missing.

"The heck?" He said with a mutter, brows furrowed hard.

He was pretty sure a pokemon had been the one to knock him out and drag him here. Humans sure as hell couldn't freeze his feet the bloody floor, for one.

But would a pokemon know to take away his net balls?

Before he could consider this, a set of heavy foot falls echoed down the icy caverns.

Immediately, Doug went limp, closing eyes and swallowing hard. Damn it all.

The smell of Dougness was in the air, not in the least because little Polo almost immediately found a trail. A blood trail, that is.

Good thing he had sent a message earlier, or one might think he had bit it! That is, assuming it had been him who sent the message.

But such thoughts aside... The blizzard grows in strength as you trudge through the snow. It soon gets to the point that you cannot see anything. Where you are, or where you are going, is a question that cannot be answered.

Only Polo seems to have a clue, sticking stubbornly to the blood trail.

But.

Even with the deafening sound of blowing gales and snow, one can almost hear in the distance.

Stomp.

Stomp.

The trail was found. Mason gripped onto his beanie and buried his head into his scarf as the wind uttered an angry howl. Mason's arm struggled to shield his blinking eyes as he trudged through the the dense snow, his heart pounding wildly beneath his chest. The young Luxio, who was leading the duo directly towards the source of those stomps, would often glance back at his trainer just to assure his safety. Since the discovery of the leftover Doug juice splattered across the snow, Mason had gotten a bit quiet. The nerves of situation were festering deep inside him, like termites munching on a log of wood, and the side effects were beginning to show.
[break][break]
As the two trekked further up the mountain, the booming sounds of foot steps continued, making Mason question whether there was a large Pokémon lurking within one of the many caverns in the mountains. "Wrryyy!" Polo screeched before taking off in a slightly faster pace than before. The trail had grew stronger. They were close. Mason breathed out slowly as his body shuddered with anxiety. Given the echoing stomps, missing people, and message, he could only assume that some large hungry Pokémon was the criminal behind this whole mess.
[break][break]
Stomp.

[break][break]
The reoccurring sound brought Mason's weary eyes back up. There it was - Polo proudly gestured towards the entrance to a cavern. "Hang in there, buddy." As the two stealthily approached the mouth of the cave, Mason's eyes nervously swept the floor in search of any potential dangers.  When they were close enough, they began to conceal their prescience by hiding behind the many chunks of large ice scattered throughout the outside of the cave. Eventually Mason took the initiative to peer over one of these chunks of ice in hopes of getting a good view of whatever laid inside.

Several Minutes before Mason and his Luxio found the cavern...

Doug remained limp as a fish, his heart almost stopping when the lumbering steps suddenly came to an abrupt stop, as if the pokemon had heard, or seen something.

When the steps resumed, more abrupt than before, the youth's heart almost burst straight out of his chest- that is, until he realized the steps were getting not closer, but further away,

When he estimated it to be far enough to be out of sight, the youth breathed out a (very low) sigh of relief.

He didn't know what had drawn the pokemon away, but whatever it was, it had his thanks. Now...

"Let's get outta here." He said under his breath, before lifting up his torso to reach into his snow boots.

You look around one of the many stalagmites you chose as cover, and see... nothing. A path leading much deeper into the icy caverns is spread out before you, stalagmites and stalactites both covering several inches of floor and ceiling.

Yet, the stomping won't stop. But it is not echoing throughout the cave- it is not to be found deeper ahead.

It is outside of the cavern. For now.
