[nospaces] [attr="class","skullhover"] [attr="class","skullimg"] [attr="class","skulltitle"]導通抵抗 [attr="class","skulloverlap"]BUT HOLD YOUR BREATH, GUESS WHO'S RUNNING THE SHOW? [attr="class","skullbody"] "We will." Because nothing would take this moment away from Isaac. All the hostility, all the threats, all the tension gnawing at the back of his brainstem . . . he'd fend it all off until they made it out of here. They'd make it home. Everyone Isaac loved would make it home. And then he'd cherish his time with them as much as humanly possible while he tried to figure his shit out.[break][break] Maybe this time, he'd finally succeed.[break][break] The movie sounded as intense as it did disconcertingly relatable. The pressure of the ocean. The pressure of Cillian Quinn. The pressure of the blood on his hands and the lives on his conscience. The pressure of the chains of command, the tentacles of the Nihilego, jerking him from side to side on puppet strings.[break][break] Like a pair of caged tigers in a bathysphere, the pressure made both Isaac and Cygne yearn to break free. However, the freedom Isaac sought was escape. The escape leaking through Cygne, suppressed giggles bubbling out from her thick, heavy voice, was something far different, far more primal.[break][break] "Cygne. It's going to be okay. This place plays tricks on us," he said, his words practically tripping over each other as he rushed to get them out. Her voice was building towards Something, and it terrified him. "Please. Stay on the line. Talk to me. We can work through this. I can find you. I can be there. Please, just, don't . . . don't . . . "[break][break] She said she loved him. No desperate blurt of "I love you!" could outrun the quick little twist of two fingers.[break][break] Isaac's voice broke at the same time his heart did.[break][break] He still remembered the codes that Eris Halla had shown him. He still remembered all of those frequencies. He tore his communicator from his ear, tossing down Pokeballs so hard that the cave floor started to bleed on impact. "I need to fix this. Help me fix this," he pleaded, thrusting his Pokeball towards Ex Machina and Kilobyte. The Rotom and Porygon looked towards each other, nodded, and flooded into the device.[break][break] Signal by signal, channel by channel, Isaac begged into the communicator. "Blackjack to Swan, this is Blacljack to Swan," he said, his voice a mosaic of every emotion known to man and some that were complete enigmas. "Please stay safe. Please come back to me. I need you to be okay. I love you." Kilobyte amplified the signal as far as he could. Ex Machina adjusted the frequency from channel to channel. All the while, Isaac repeated his mantra, desperation bleeding into his voice as he sunk to his knees.[break][break] Soon, all of the Ultra Deep Sea would know the plea in Isaac's heart. All except the one who mattered most.
