“Whoever that was, they didn’t call you Fox, though.”

The equally-cold stare met the shouted voice back with an equal amount of deadpan. But then, it’s at this point he noticed that the pink was bleeding into a darker shade of purple that—

“Move, move!” he yelled over the other man’s tantrum as the purple smoke began curling and more shapes formed from deep within its swirling mass.

“You thought the pink shit was normal? Well, the purple stuff’s worse! What are you waiting for, idiota, move!” he shouted as he ignored everything, and deliberately grabbed Fox’s arm to pull him along.

Because not too long after the purple came the black and that was decidedly the worst of them all!

“It doesn’t ma--,”

His words are cut off by Lars launching at him, and Fox, already on edge and used to defending himself, reacts instinctively, cracking Lars across the face with the back of his hand.

But then it was Lars grabbing him and dragging him, and Fox didn’t need much to get him moving; he spared one final, sad look for the figure in the labcoat as he was subsumed by the violet swells, breaking into a run to keep pace with Lars as they made their escape.

Not a moment too soon—

He heard a very familiar screaming coming from deep within the purple mist as it whipped out behind them, tendrils shifting into little curlicues that were mocking the two of them, fleeting from the damned thing that was intent on bringing their worst fears to fucking life.

“It’s not real, it’s not real, it’s not real…” he continued as he lapsed into Alto Marean as the screaming voice of cut through from the purple mist. A few seconds later, another familiar shouting came from deep within—

And it made his blood run cold.

“What—whatever you do, don’t listen to the voices, and d-don’t you fucking dare look back at the purple clouds!”

Lars seems to be talking mostly to hear himself and less for Fox’s benefit. The shouts and screams from the fog behind them warp and distort, sometimes far away, and sometimes right at the back of their necks. They range from ear-piercingly shriek to demonic and rasping.

Fox presses a hand in the center of Lars’ back, to let him know he’s still there. “Go, go!”

They’re running at full pelt, until--

Help me, Lachlann! A different voice, high, feminine, warped in pain and misery.

Fox stumbles, slows-- doesn’t want to stop, knows he shouldn’t, and Lars is still pulling him along--

--something big and green steps into their path, teal-colored lights flashing through the smoke.

“Who—who was that?!” he gasped as they continued running—where the fuck else could they escape to? They were eventually going to run out of cave to escape further into—and what a time for him to not have his go-to Teleporting Pokémon companions!

“If you don’t want to tell me now, then tell me another time! But wh—why are they calling you a different name?!”

His blood had run cold ever since the second voice started calling out to him—he’d already made his own peace with the owner of that voice, and had all the tattoos inked on him as part of coming to terms with—with—

Shit.

They had to make tracks, fast, because the black wisps from the Interdream Zone were the ones he did not want to encounter at all, ever again, because those were the absolute worst…

“No one!” Fox yelled, frustrated and fed up with Lars’ inherent focus on what everyone was calling him. “It doesn’t matter! LOOK OUT!”

He grabbed Lars at the waist and dragged him to the side as a huge, hulking green figure came shooting through the gloom at them, footsteps crushing into the ground and leaving massive three-toed footprints that would have certainly smashed them into goo.

The strange, metallic-looking Tyrannitar wild charged past them and into the depth of the dream smoke.

“What the fuck was that?” Fox asked, as the monster screamed in frustration in the distance.

He felt his center of gravity shift as he was suddenly dragged off to one side and something—evidently, something big came crashing through the mist, roaring and screaming like it was…

Wait, why did it sound distorted?

“What—in the fuck—was that?!” he gasped once the strange-looking Tyranitar… it looked like one, but there were some obvious differences—stomped off deeper into the thickening purpling, then blackening mist.

“Fuck… fuck, we have to get the hell out of here!” he exclaimed once the strange-looking—was it even a Pokémon—disappeared.

“You—you saw that, right?!”

Fox snapped his mouth shut, brows knitting together in a look of incredulous anger.

“Yes, I fucking saw it, Laurence,” he snapped, “I’m not blind--,”

He cut off abruptly as he felt something touching his ankle, slipping down the inside of his boot. With delayed horror, he looked down to see one of the little black tendrils of fog writhing over top the laces and curling against his lower calf.

“What…” he started, voice hoarse from shouting, “What do the… dark ones do…”

Thankfully the strange, robotic—it had to be robotic—Tyranitar-like… thing had been swallowed by the mist, and they were out of danger—mostly.

Mostly.

Unfortunately one of the darkest, black tendrils had managed to curl around Fox’s ankle—and his eyes went wide.

“Fuck…”

Today was just a day full of expletives…

“Whatever you do. Whatever you see. D-don’t. It’s. It’s not. R-real.”

Was he stammering? He had no idea.

“That doesn’t answer my question!” Fox snapped, kicking his leg to dispel the black mist slowly creeping up his shins. “What does it do?! What am I going to see?!”

He shooks his head, and shoved Lars hard in the chest, pushing him away. His voice became thick, in word and brogue, and it becomes apparent just how much of his accent he fights down on a regular basis.

“Cannae hap’ we're standing 'ere talking. We need tae shift b’fore that-- that thing comes back, or b’fore we're tae exposed tae this drow. Move y’arse, commander.”

He stumbles a few steps forward, his vision blurring.

"None o' it's real, none o' it matters "

Unfortunately for Fox, Lars had only encountered the mist up to the point when it turned deep purple—he’d only heard rumors and stories about what happened when the black tendrils came emerging, however…

“Whoa!” he yelped, suddenly losing his balance as he got roughly shoved away from the other man. “Fox, what the fuck is going on with—”

The accent that came out of the other man’s mouth made his eyebrows rise up so high, they threatened to disappear into his hairline the longer they stood there. He could only stare, transfixed, as Fox sank into something that…

Was that a Galarian accent? Or at least, Galarian-adjacent?

He knew that the longer they lingered, the worse the aftereffects became, but… just how bad they would get, remained to be seen.

“What? What doesn’t matter? What is it?!” he exclaimed, perplexed at whatever Fox was saying.

“You can tell me!”

Fox didn’t have time for this. For all he knew he had seconds until whatever this damn black mist was started having an effect on him. And, true to form, Lars wanted to stand around and talk about it, but not say anything helpful.

“Not ‘aff t’dae us good to tell you ‘n then we die,” he growled, stubbornly continuing on his set path, anywhere away from the mist, from the monster, and, yes, from Lars.

He was making good headway until a wall of flame burst up before him. It started as a low, snaking fire, like a trail of lighter fluid catching in the wind, and then exploded to life, shooting up past their heads to lick at the sky.

Fox squinted into the heat.

“That’s… not real,” he said, grinding his teeth.

Help us, Lachlann! The voices called again, but it was distorted, now-- demonic, echoing, warped like a scratched record spinning with a bent needle. Help us! Don’t let us die in heeeeeeere--

Fox reached a hand towards the flame.

“Do you want to go insane?!” he barked at the other man as the remnants of the dark purple mist seemingly reformed, and then gave way to something—something that made him recoil at the sight.

Even if he knew it wasn’t real, fact of the matter that there was fire in this made his skin crawl.

“Linger around the black mist’s effect long enough, and you’ll go fucking insane! Or worse, the madness might drive you to kill yourself to stop hearing those voices in your head!” he continued as he reached out to grab the other man away from the ‘flames’—

Despite it only being shapes that he could see, he was pretty certain that in Fox’s mind’s eye, everything was all too fucking real.

Lars’ touch was like ice and Fox recoiled from it, the dreaminess in his eyes shattering like glass.

“Get off! Let me go!” He drew his leg in and kicked out at the Head Ranger, trying to bring an elbow down to break free of Lars’ grip.

“I can save them this time!”

“For the last time, who the fuck is them?!” he gasped as he narrowly avoided getting an elbow to the midsection (however he got a hard stomp on his own foot instead, which caused him to recoil and let go of the other man).

“What are you doing?!” he continued as he lunged back out, another attempt to grab him and wrest him away from the black ‘flames’ that were slowly, ever so slowly licking towards Fox’s feet…

“Stop!”
