it's a quiet evening, one that somehow remains unmarred despite all that forebodes. the only disturbance that pervades is the presence of the elite four; how he seems to loom and scour.[break][break]

all for what? a pokemon that wants nothing to do with him anymore?[break][break]

he freezes at the mere sight of a falling leave, and though he yearns for it to be coated with the familiar magic he has come to know, he is met with nothing but disappointment.[break][break]

it falls to the ground, abandoned.[break][break]

"tch."[break][break]

[attr="class","char-words"]their introspection are mirrors of one another, but where matias's could be classified as somber, greyson's is a maelstrom of hatred and anger. a leave crunches beneath his boot as greyso0n's silhouette appears a dozen or so feet away. absent is the comfortable steel of his aegislash. instead, his hands ball into fists at his side, violet hues shining beneath the shade of the canopies above.
[break][break]
newly minted into the elite four, his position rivaled matias's though it lacked the prestige of avatarship; nevertheless, he quells the doubt that lingers in his mind, the very same one had used to tear him down only days before.
[break][break]
his appearance is a concession; a chance for matias to gain a semblance of footing. while part of this might've been attributed to his generous nature, the primary motivation is far more primal: he wanted to make what happened next as fair as possible.
[break][break]
"where is she, matias?" his voice comes softer than one might've expected, the tone even despite the emotion's coursing through him right now.
[break][break]
he doesn't wait for a response.
[break][break]
greyson surges forward as the toes of his boots kick-up dirt and soil. by the time he's within' striking distance to matias, a slowly forming armor of obsidian coated flower petals (flower shield) has already started started to form, and the familiar sword & shield of his aeigislash move into striking, and defensive position
[break][break]
"WHERE IS SHE?"

it does not take much to see the intent behind the way the newly-minted elite four approaches—the anger and hostility he exudes that almost feel palpable.[break][break]

"you don't want to do this, connors."[break][break]

but the dirt and soil kicked his way make it difficult to tip away from the point of no return.[break][break]

he does not have the patience for this.[break][break]

a WALL OF EARTH erupts between them, blocking the aegislash from finding contact, and as he takes steps away, shapes in the woods around them begin to move.[break][break]

"you're in over your fucking head."[break][break]

his arsenal of trained pokemon move, reacting to the disturbance.[break][break]

"but i'll let you leave."[break][break]

[attr="class","char-words"]mentally he chastises himself for his outburst and he wraps that molten anger around an illusionary sword, tempering the edge into something sharper, more dangerous.
[break][break]
a flick of his wrist and the SACRED SWORD cleaves the wall in two. he approaches with deliberate, slow footfalls, before finally climbing atop the ruins of the wall. once there he plunges the blade into its soft surface, violet hues locking onto matias.
[break][break]
"no pokemon. no powers. no cheap tricks." he cracks his knuckles one-by-one. "just me and you."

"it may surprise you to hear but i don't actually want to hurt you."[break][break]

he says even in the face of imminent danger.[break][break]

[attr="class","char-words"]at 's name something stirs in his chest. he walks off the wall, barely displacing the dirt, and approaches the avatar.
[Break][break]
when he stops, greyson's mere inches away.
[Break][break]
"don't say her name." that feeling in his chest turns ice-cold and hollow. it warps, and twists, carving a chunk of him out to replace.
[Break][break]
what's left is a hungry, empty void.
[Break][break]
"why should it matter to me what you want? did you stop to consider 's wants? or 's? you're the reason she's missing, even if you didn't do the deed yourself."
[Break][break]
it consumes, and consumes, and consumes.
[Break][break]
anger, hatred, fear, and even the more primal instinct of violence, gets sucked into this void; they are fuel to the never-burning flame. each word of his is coated in ice and malice, until they're soaked so throughly they drip the emotions freely.
[Break][break]

why was it that those with relative strength or authority - , , , and so much more - think that their wants or needs trumped all others? was it corruption? intolerance? or did their positions twist their views so thoroughly that this was all that remained?
[Break][break]
his lips twist into a sneer at the thought, though having matias's face this close to him only makes the visceral reaction come all the more easier.
[Break][break]
"i'm getting sick and tired of people like you. you take and you take, with no consideration to those around you - to your actions. you're all diluted into thinking you're heroes, but we both know the truth, don't we matias?"
[Break][break]

he gets so close that his forehead is actively pushing against the avatar's.
[Break][break]
"so tell me again: why should I give a fuck what you want?"

[attr="class","char-words"]Was he delusional? Probably. Greyson Connors always strove to be the hero; always dreamed of it. Now, though, that idea was disillusioned. There was no glory, no honor, no heroes to be found here. Only hard choices.
[break][break]
"You have the gall to call me delusional? There's no audience here, Matias. No need to play the part."
[break][break]
He exhales a steady breathe, not letting the man phase him.
[break][break]
"I did some digging on you. Your background is impressive. More merits and medals than most. But, that's not all, is it Matias? People around you seem to drop like flies. Enemies, friends - it doesn't matter. Why is that? Why is it the man who believes himself to be Hoenn's Savior is so shrouded by death? By failure?"

enemies, friends, they matter little on the battlefield as long as they end up victorious. for matias, there is no such thing as a pyrrhic victory. there is only victory.[break][break]

he is unhinged but that's beside the point. what should matter is something else entirely.[break][break]

"i've been fighting team rocket for over half my life. i've sacrificed more than you ever have so don't question my integrity. i have my own agendas, you're right, but so does everyone else. what should matter is that i save lives."[break][break]

he takes a breath.[break][break]

He gives in to Matias's prodding; appeals to his sense of heroism.
[break][break]
"Does that make your actions right? I'm sure in your eyes they do. You've fought them for half your life? I'll spare you my sympathy. The fact-of-the-matter is, you've become the exact type of person you've been fighting all along."
[break][break]
Greyson turns, lifting the blade from the trunk of the tree with a grunt.
[break][break]
"I'm not going to play into your fantasy, Matias. Your need for validation, to be the hero? It's honestly pathetic. As much as it pains me to admit it — the League needs you. For now. And, should the day you ever overstep your position, you can rest assured I will be first in line to put you down like the rabid dog you are."

more would've died.[break][break]

yes, they would've, and that fact in itself is enough to vindicate him of any wrongdoings they might accuse him of even if the mere accusation is baffling to him.[break][break]

not just the league, "hoenn needs me."[break][break]

"i wouldn't get your hopes up. that day won't ever come, and do you know why?"[break][break]

he takes a step toward greyson.[break][break]

"Face it, Matias. You need them to think that, or what other use does the League have for you? There was a Groudon avatar before you, and we both know, there will be another long after you're gone."

the steps taken aren't meant to be provocative. his words aren't meant to goad either as his intentions, as he belives them to be, are genuine and whole.[break][break]

he stops just shy of the other man.[break][break]

"i'm still not sure what she sees in you."[break][break]

he speaks as though isn't currently rotting in a rocket prison.[break][break]

"i'll find and rescue her eventually, but after that, just know that if you ever hurt her, i'll kill you."[break][break]
