[nospaces] [attr="class","calebtest8"] [attr="class","body"] One moment, he was running - running with a renewed vigor, every fibre of his being intent on reaching the Kyurem and giving it hell - the next, he was falling.[break][break] The ground heaved violently beneath his feet with an agonized groan, and Caleb tripped, pitching forward into a newly formed chasm. Hex bellowed in pain, and Caleb instinctively grabbed his Pokeball, returning him. The Ranger had already lost one companion to the blizzard, he would not lose another.[break][break] So he fell. Alone.[break][break] Wind rushed at him as he careened into the depths of the earth. Spikes of sharp crystal glittered in the grey-blue light of the never-ending winter, and Caleb realized that this was it - this was how he died. After all the torture, the wars in Galar, the fights with his brother, the sins he'd committed - this was how it happened. He supposed there was a certain expected irony to that: he'd tried to die so many times, the desire of a guilty conscience, but the moment he decided to actually give a shit - to live - the universe decided to end him.[break][break] Oddly, he felt at peace with that. He hadn't been afraid of death before and he wasn't now. There was something sweet in it, he realized. Something that tasted just a little bit like redemption.[break][break] Ollie will be sad, though.[break][break] He shut his eyes, gave into gravity, and waited for the pain with a sorrowful acceptance.[break][break] Thump.[break][break] [break] Caleb's body slammed into... something. The pain of being impaled on a Tera crystal did not come. Instead, he was met with a triumphant, throaty roar. Cracking one eye open, he saw that he'd been caught by a massive Pokemon. Grizzled, scarred, and trailing frost, the dragon leered back at him, eyes gleaming with an ageless wisdom.[break][break] "Lyune," he remembered, heart swelling.[break][break] Caleb fumbled to right himself, struggling with a strange - harness? stirrups? - mechanism attached to the beast. They hovered there, above the spikes that would surely have skewered Caleb, and all around them, bizarre mechanical creatures began to manifest. And they looked pissed.[break][break] "I've seen you in action, friend," he rumbled to the dragon that had saved his life. "I know you can take 'em." He paused, then bowed his head, touching his cheek to scales so cold they burned his skin. "Thank you. I am in your debt."[break][break] zGGUXgMl TO SOW DRAGON'S TEETH (RIGHT)[break] NOTES[break] – Caleb is dressed in standard League-issued combat gear[break] – Caleb runs at Kyurem full speed but the chasms open, and he falls to his death![break] - BUT WAIT!
