[attr="class","char-words"]inside a triage tent, greyson went to work.
[break][break]
this war wasn't as bloody as the 3-day war years back, but it still had cost them. the lives of men, women, and pokemon — senseless loss.
[break][break]
greyson made his way through the growing crowd, and past the rows of the beds filled with the injured. a number of his comfey were already at work; wrist sized bracelets of flowers glowing a faint green as the FLORAL HEALING seals wounds, and soothes pain. his own arm — his left, luckily — was encased in a sling made entirely out of the healing flora. it'd be days still, at the very minimum, before he could use it again.
[break][break]
his thoughts inevitably go to bryan delarosa, then to jayden cross, and finally MATIAS SILPH. his teeth gnash like a territorial pyroar, before finally, the fire in his belly extinguishes at the thought of annalise henderson.
[break][break]
behind him, falling in-step so close as to be mistaken for military cadence, his rapidash neighs softly. the runes on her cream white fur glow a faint silver, like starlight, and he reaches up to caress her muzzle, and place his forehead onto hers.
[break][break]
"thanks," he says, feeling her HEAL PULSE spreading outwards, warming his spirit, and encompassing the dozens of injured. he suppresses a sigh, and then a sob, as he swallows thickly.
[break][break]
there was still work to be done.

ollie hadn't been in the three day war. he hadn't been in kanto either, not when the region had been taken over. in more ways than one, this was the ranger captain's first war.

[break][break] but that didn't make it any less devestating.

[break][break] ollie hobbles through the rows of the injured and weak, looking out for any of his friends. one of his arms is in a sling from the battle with that terrifying rocket (Cillian Quinn.)

[break][break] he's relieved to spot that most of his friends are alright. he spots PENELOPE LIVY and MATIAS SILPH talking at the edges of the crowd with a few other league professionals, probably talking about important league things. he sees illeana reyes healing the injured, and nods at her as he passes through.

[break][break] but it's the absence of one of his best friends, annalise henderson, that gnaws at his heart — relief blossoms in his chest when he sees Greyson Connors.

[break][break] "oh man, i'm glad to see you."

[break][break] ollie grins as he approaches the former gym leader.

[break][break] "this day was crazy. i'm glad that we're all safe."

[break][break] hesitation bubbles in his chest.

[break][break] they were all safe, weren't they?

"nothing too bad," he said, with a shake of his head. "at least not more than anyone else."

[break][break] but looking at him, it was easy to see it was a blatant lie. there were cuts and bruises along his face from where Asriel Pryde had hit him, and then there were bandages around his waist from where he'd suffered against lugia's avatar.

[break][break] "but i gotta say - i was surprised to see shadow lugia here."

[break][break] and fighting it had been no means an easy task.

[break][break] there's a glimmer of concern in his eye as he looked at the other man.

"i guess you're right."

[break][break] but that was the first time that ollie had faced a legendary pokemon so close and personal, except for what had happened on my.pyre. it was still crazy to him that someone could be chosen for avatarsship, even crazier than the fact that a person so evil would be chosen.

[break][break] his thoughts however halt at Greyson Connors's words.

[break][break] "no, i saw her with you last." he swallows, a feeling of trepedition crawling up his spine. he tries his best to shove it down, far, far down.

[break][break] "I'm sure she's here somewhere."

"an argument?"

[break][break] he blinks, brow furrowing.

[break][break] "it can't be that bad," he says with a laugh, face clearing up after a moment. "she loves you."

[break][break] annalise henderson had never said as much, but it was something that ollie could just instinctively feel. the reverent way that she'd talked about him back in the ultra deep sea, how she'd affectionately told them the story of their first date. how lucky she was to have him.

[break][break] "matias, huh?" he whirls his head around, trying to look for that familiar tussle of red hair. but it mingled in with the rest of the crowd, and he could no longer see their elite four standing side-by-side their councilwoman. "we just gotta find him then. c'mon."

[break][break] ollie hobbles along, careful to keep his arm sling out of the reach of some children who race by.

[break][break] "what was your argument about?"

[break][break] some casual conversation.

[attr="class","char-words"]reminding him of her love only causes the wound his soul felt to widen and fester. his lips twitch into the visage of a snarl, for but an instant, before he hisses out an exhale.
[break][break]
"matias. he kissed her against her will." the latter portion of annalise henderson's words bring doubt to hang over greyson like stormclouds, but her anger had been genuine only moments before the shift.
[break][break]
he still didn't know what to believe.
[break][break]
"said she was going to go talk to him." he keeps the battle between himself and MATIAS SILPH a secret, though the thought of her alone with the man nearly has his one good arm reaching for the hilt of his blade. "no one you've talked to has seen her?"

"he kissed her?"

[break][break] immediately, whatever ollie is thinking about blanks out. all he feels is disbelief and confusion.

[break][break] "there's no way. he's with eva - well, was - but still, he would never - "

[break][break] then he remembers what Eva Morales had said to him back in kanto, when he was consoling her.

[break][break] 'he said there's someone else.'

[break][break] 'he said he didn't even want to try.'

[break][break] he stops his search for annalise henderson, this time his gaze is focused on Greyson Connors.

[break][break] "are you... sure? are you sure it was against her will?"

[break][break] his throat was dry.

[break][break] "he cheated on eva, you know."

Greyson Connors was a good man. a good boyfriend. he makes good on annalise henderson's words, and that's something that ollie is endlessly grateful for.

[break][break] his best friend is good too, and she deserves someone equally as much.

[break][break] "you're right," he says with a sigh. "she does."

[break][break] relief pools in his chest as he thinks of greyson's words, trying to find the good in things. he's grateful for the other man to drag him away from the darkness of his thoughts, of the inevitable awfulness that he'd nearly tried to imply.

[break][break] "i'm just... shocked. i never thought — i didn't think matias would do something like that." he means cheat. "i thought he was a good guy. he promised to protect eva, promised to love her."

[break][break] he swallows thick, before leading them through the crowd again, shaking his head.

[break][break] "c'mon. let's go find anna. i'm sure she's here somewhere."
