[attr="class","cianmain"]ahead lays reddish yellow plains that seem to stretch on even beyond the horizon. the sun that hangs overhead shines brightly, drawing sweat from him that he wipes off his cheek with a shrug of his shoulder.

"fuck, it's hot. do you see anything up there?"

he calls up to his buzzwole. a sigh comes from him when he sees it shake its head.

"could be worse, i guess."

at the sound of sand displacing behind him, he turns and looks over his shoulder but does not make the recognition yet.

"oh, hey! you here to explore?"

he had postphoned it long enough. rocket required intel and it only made sense that one of their loyalist members would provide it.

[break][break] 'i'll be safe,' he promised fern delaney before departing.

[break][break] and he would do his best to keep that promise. but not even he could predict the elements of the future.

[break][break] in the middle of the border's aching desert was one jayden cross, and across from him stood someone he thought he'd never see again.

[break][break] "maher."

[break][break] behind him, his roaring moon's slanted eyes locks onto the blond. it's wings span wide behind jayden.

[break][break] "what are you doing here?"

[attr="class","cianmain"]"hm?"

the fact that he's recognized doesn't set off any alarms because of his status as rustboro's gym leader. it's the fact that he's referred to as maher that does it.

his defenses raise as he turns. his buzzwole has yet to pick up on his cue.

"hey, bestie. you look well. good, even."

he eyes the roaring moon briefly.

"how are you?"

heat laces behind his gaze, contorting into HATRED.

[break][break] but this is not a hatred sired in the border. this is not due to the emotions ressurected from beging between the boundary between life and death.

[break][break] it is a feeling that has long since spawned in his heart, coiling around him like barbed tendrils borne of shadow. it was there from the moment that CIAN MAHER betrayed not only rocket but betrayed him.

[break][break] he ignored the feeble attempt at small-talk.

[break][break] "how could you?" he said through gritted teeth, fists clenched at his side. "do you know what you did?"

[attr="class","cianmain"]his fingers snap as gently as they can behind his back in a feeble attempt to get his buzzwole's attention. still, it remains fixated on the clouds above.

"oh, bestie. you should've seen it coming honestly because why would i ever choose to stay in team rocket? why would anyone?"

he pauses.

"i wanted to tell you, you know. before i left. i felt like i owed it to you."

[attr="class","cianmain"]"stay?"

for you?

it almost makes him laugh at how absurd the suggestion is. why would he ever throw his life away let alone for someone he barely even knows?

they were merely roommates, after all, and nothing more.

"why did you want me to stay that badly? what difference would it have made? we were just friends, bestie."

betrayal flashes across his face in a storm, then pain, then rage. emotions cracks like lightning across a night sky, even though the plains of the ultra desert are nothing but hot and humid.

[break][break] "it's because we were friends."

[break][break] "did our friendship mean nothing to you?"

[break][break] with an ear-splitting crack, an EARTHQUAKE from his roaring moon fissures across the desolate land.

[attr="class","cianmain"]"it meant everything to me!"

his words carry across the splitting EARTHQUAKE that finally gets his buzzwole's attention. the ultra beast turns and LUNGES down to ram into the roaring moon.

"but i needed a life free from rocket! a life where i don't have to hide or pretend to be someone else!"

he struggles to stay on his feet.

"a life where i can do good. be good."

"everything?"

[break][break] jayden found it hard to believe that it was everything. if it was everything, then cian would still be with them. then cian would still be home.

[break][break] a vicious memory of illeana reyes surfaces, just as the two beasts engage in ferocious battle. the snarls of pokemon can be overhead above the otherwise quiet arid desert.

[break][break] "good?" jayden is not one for laughter, but the way he looks upon CIAN MAHER is mocking at best. his lips twist into a scowl. "you think the league is good?"

[break][break] "if they were so good, they would not be fighting a war they can't win."

[break][break] "you didn't leave rocket because you wanted to be good, cian. you left because you were weak."

[break][break] a FLAMETHROWER blasts across dry summer skies.

[attr="class","cianmain"]rocket was never home, not even during the darkest of days when he found himself with nowhere else to turn. rocket was a means to an end—a complication he found himself entangled in through no fault of his own.

shades of FLAMETHROWER paint across arid skies disrupted only by the erratic movement of buzzwole. it bobs and weaves, evading only to close the distance to throw a POWER-UP PUNCH.

"we fight a war started by you because we have to! look what kanto has become!"

he reaches for another pokeball on his belt, hestiating as he locks eyes with his friend.

"i don't want to fight you, jayden."

bones smash against knuckles as his roaring moon lets out a roar of pain.

[break][break] against the burning, summer sky and scorching-hot flames, jayden's gaze pins his ex-friend's across the room. HATRED burns fiery hot in his chest, more vicious than he'd ever been with him before.

[break][break] "what kanto has become?" he repeats, hollowly. "what do you know about kanto?"

[break][break] a BREAKING SWIPE aims to knock the buzzwole off it's feet, unrelenting in it's embrace.

[break][break] "what do you know about family?"

[break][break] his voice is cold when he speaks:

[break][break] "you abandoned yours."

[break][break] violet eyes crack like lightning in the arid earth.

[break][break] 'so perish.'

[attr="class","cianmain"]you abandoned yours.

his knuckles turn white against his pokeball as he seethes. it hurts to be judged by someone he would have considered a friend, but maybe it shouldn't have.

they aren't friends, after all.

"i didn't."

but he did.

"i didnt!"

a relic of his time in rocket emerges from its pokeball, gliscor's stinger sharpening with an immediate SWORDS DANCE as it flies toward the roaring moon.

jayden's eyes glint at the sight of an old friend, of an artifact that he knows only too well. the admin knows his ex-friend's companion all too well, having spotted him on many a mission before.

[break][break] as the gliscor juts forward with sword dance, the dragon seeks to scald him alive with FLAMETHROWER. flames blast in disarray, fiery blades that swing without forgiveness towards both the ultra beast and flying bat.

[break][break] "you did!"

[break][break] jayden sprints forward across the sand, daggers flying from his grip.

[break][break] "you abandoned them, you abandoned us. you abandoned me!"
