Jewels upon jewels form the links of the chain, blood-toned rubies that appear impossible to break. They surround Necrozma, capture it,
bind it, and for a moment, an intense feeling of victory seems to overtake all of Sootopolis…
[break][break]
That’s when
it shatters.[break][break]
”Bloodwit?” It’s in quiet confusion that Mars watches his shadow-blooded Persian leap away instead of returning to the confines of the Luxury Ball as he had commanded, and when he sees where the pokémon is headed, it’s behind a mask that unseen horror overtakes his expression.
”No–…”[break][break]
The Persian lunges at Azelf, biting the Willpower Pokémon and clinging by the sheer force of her maw. Blood drips, marking both the Guardian’s small body and the seal-point fur of the shadow feline. Azelf’s jewel cracks, and Mars is almost sure he can hear the devastating sound even from where he stands.
[break][break]
”Fuck–” This time, when he
TELEPORTS, he gives no warning, appearing closer to where Azelf is and reaching for the few Luxury Balls he has left the moment he does. His Blastoise, ever swift, shoots a gelid
ICE BEAM that forces the Persian to let go, giving Mars enough time to go catch the small injured deity as it falls, holding it in his arms.
”AZELF! Are you alright?”[break][break]
His other pokémon, a Reuniclus and a Musharna, follow the Blastoise’s lead.
[break][break]
Rose-tinted mist swirls; a
HYPNOSIS on part of the Musharna, intended to incapacitate the cantankerous feline. Wrinkling her nose, Bloodwit growls – hackles up and fangs in full display, ready to strike. The mist doesn’t seem to do much, but it does in fact distract her for long enough for the Reuniclus to attack…
[break][break]
A huge green fist hits the Persian’s jaw with a
HAMMER ARM, bearing all the force the psychic type can muster. It sends ripples through the cat’s body, but before the Reuniclus can move away,
she turns, biting down on the same fist that just hit her. Fangs dig deep into the gelatinous body of her assailant, spilling goo onto the ground. Translucent green becomes marked by deep red, and the Reuniclus screams in pain, attempting to break free from the hold of the Persian’s maw to no avail.
[break][break]
Bloodwit does not let go. Not until she
flings the psychic type away, ripping all that ties its small body together and splattering gel. Only its arm remains hanging from the Persian’s jaws; motionless and barely holdings its shape. She spits it out, and coated in both blood and goo alike, she looks at the Musharna with wild crimson eyes.
[break][break]
She leaps, jumping onto the much slower pokémon, and even though the Blastoise shoots her with a
FLASH CANNON, it does not stop her from digging her sharp claws into the Musharna’s body and downing it from the skies where it had been safely levitating. The Drowsing Pokémon attempts to use its
PSYCHIC power to hold the Persian back, and although it appears to have some degree of success, it's soon enough that fangs pierce through purple flesh.
[break][break]
A blood-curdling shriek cuts through the air. The last sound emitted by the Musharna before the Persian tears its heart out.
[break][break]
All that happens in a matter of seconds, and although the sight of the bloody and lifeless Musharna the feline feasts on brings more than one painful thought to Mars’ mind, all he can do is take a deep breath and
act.[break][break]
”Calli. Life Dew. Z-Move. NOW.”[break][break]
Azelf’s safety has to be his priority. He needs to make sure the Guardian is safe and sound. In the rains brought upon by Kyogre’s presence, the healing
ANGELIC SHOWERS join the downpour, restoring the health of all upon which they fall.
Hopefully, they’ll help Azelf, and although it has not been Mars’ intention, the downpour restores enough of the injured Reuniclus’ will for it to use the last of its power to strike the Persian with a confusion-inducing
PSYBEAM.
[break][break]
Bloodwit retaliates immediately, tearing the Multiplying Pokémon apart with a
FRENZY PLANT. However, this and all of the injuries she has sustained leave her incapacitated, and it’s only then that Mars attempts to call her back to her Luxury Ball one more time…
[break][break]
”That’s enough, Bloodwit.”[break][break]
In the background, both Necrozma battle against everyone else, and Mars can only hope they’re able to hold the Darkest Day back.
Both of them. The Guardians had been right.
