The distortion had appeared without warning. Ameena hadn't been walking the city streets with a psychic by her time and, lacking the prowess and convenience of a pokemon knowing teleport, she was swallowed without recourse. [break][break]

Inside the portal, she saw a snowy, barren field. And a gigantic, two-story tall Avalugg. [break][break]

She had no time to look around at her surroundings, her teeth already threatening to chatter at the sudden drop in temperature with the snowflake-laden winds. Her closest pokeball launches from her belt with a flick, and Xurkitree takes form before her. Xurkitree raised its top appendages and created an electric terrain over the icy field. [break][break]

Avalugg responded by exacerbating the biting winds, creating a blizzard that threatened to freeze her out if she didn't stall the pokemon and find her way back through the distortion.

The space tear came out of no where. One second Liam was chilling around Mauville's outskirts "patrolling" via popsicle and doing donuts in the sky in his staraptor , and the next second his body was being torn into two. Spatial energy made little of his arms, eating away at him, cell by cell, until rebirth came at the price of a new environment.
[break][break]
An environment in which housed a giant ass Pokemon fighting between the ensuing blizzard.
[break][break]
"Shit, that thing is huge," He whistled, hand already cupping one of his balls. One click and his staraptor returned to him, just as bugged eyed as him. Between the washes of white, he could make out the small figure of a woman. And it was with that realization that his legs discovered a will to move.
[break][break]
"Ayo, need some help?"
[break][break]
It didn't matter. Charlie was already swooping in from the skies, hitting the ultra beast with several AERIAL ACES.

Ameena flinched at the sound behind her, turning to see some guy. There was strength in numbers. She felt relief, even though she worried as she saw he used a Staraptor, and she thought those didn't handle electricity well. "Be careful, Xurkitree." She didn't want him shooting the bird out of the sky with an electrical blast. She wanted the goodwill of the stranger to improve their chances of survival. [break][break]

"Zap Cannon," she ordered. The electric terrain powered up his blast of electrical energy as he launched it at the Avalugg, knocking it in the head. [break][break]

The Avalugg launched an ice beam at Liam's pokemon, angered at the presence of an aerial threat when he already had obnoxious antagonists on the ground floor. "Keep its attention divided!" Ameena shouted over the Blizzard.

"Aye aye," He shouted back.
[break][break]
The ice beam wasn't ideal, but neither was the blizzard. Both held its consequences, frost more foreboding than any grave. One misstaken shard of ice, and Staraptor would be another pebble tossed into the snow.
[break][break]
"Keep strong. Focus on avoiding the beam!"
[break][break]
His commands sounded more of a football coach than a trainer, loud, but not too informed. He'd hardly had opportunities to battle like this before. That was more for the elites. But this was Hoenn, so his luck was bound to run out eventually.
[break][break]
As he'd expected, the Avalugg continued directing attention onto the Staraptor, who evaded his attacks with avian flexibility. Left and right, the bird would swing its body, diving whenever the beam would raise, and soaring whenever it would dip.
[break][break]
"Hit it!"

Staraptor kept its eyes above, giving Xurkitree the opening it needed to assault the Avalugg from below. Xurktiree struck with power whip to knock at the beast and tie it up. However, Avalugg broke free of the restraining whip and stomped Xurkitree into the ground. [break][break]

"This thing is powerful," she said through gritted teeth, moving closer to the man that'd come into the distortion with her. "We need to-" Xurkitree used electrify to shock it from underneath its foot. The Avalugg cried out as it was paralyzed. [break][break]

Good: a window of opportunity. "While it's stuck, we need to look to see if the distortion is around." If they didn't get back through the rift, they'd be trapped in the past. The flurry of ice and snow around them made it hard to trace what direction they'd come from. "Can your Staraptor scout for it in this weather?"

Tightly wound, like a string nearing breakage, Liam gritted his teeth at the monster's stamina. There was no beating it - not without an ace team of pokemon, readied to reach their limits for the chance of survival. Which he certainly didn't have. Today was meant for simple scouting. Something that required two meager ingredients: his eyes and his staraptor. Yet, life held different expectations of him today, as noted by the giant roaring icicle trying to freeze their asses into the next ice age.
[Break][break]
"Yeah," He nodded, wanting to wink, but barely able to smile. "Hear that Rap? Try checkin' for that distortion. Should be this giant fucked up tear. Hard to miss."
[Break][break]
The staraptor, hearing his trainer's call, cawed in return. With one tucked wing, the avian careened leftward, then rose to a new vantage point. It took 30 seconds before another caw was heard, followed by the rapid flap of wings as staraptor returned.
[Break][break]
"Let's fucking go, rap." He glanced back at the woman, "now let's get the hell outta here."

His flying type was fast. She was glad they had a solid scouting pokemon, especially as she was losing feeling in her fingers from the stark cold. [break][break]

"No time to waste," she agreed as they followed the sound of his Staraptor. Xurkitree followed with tiredness, but he had far more energy than she did as the icy tundra sapped it from her bones. Thankfully, the rift appeared before them, yawning open. Even with the knowledge of her home being on the other side, she always felt a tinge of hesitation at the mouth of a rift. They were symbols of chaos, and the ones that appeared in nature felt more unpredictable than those she wanted to summon through the dreamscape. [break][break]

She gestured to it. "You first, for all your help." She did her best to not look nervous.

He eyed the rift, curiously. It's distorted stature was definitely something he hadn't seen before, but it kind of reminded him of some game he used to play with his brothers. Though, those portals were a bright shade of neon orange and blue, and they were used to solve puzzles, not escape death. But still - it was close enough.
[Break][break]
Glancing back, the ranger's expression washed itself of anxiety, choosing to don something lighter in its stead. Light traced his eyes as his lips quirked back up, lifting into a small smirk.
[Break][break]
"'kay."
[Break][break]
He looked as his staraptor.
[Break][break]
"I go, then you"
[Break][break]
The pokemon nodded in return. So he stepped forward, letting the ice crunched beneath his boot. He took a pause, letting himself dangle between the last inches of snow, as clouds breathed out from his lips.
[Break][break]
He could feel the tear pulling at his clothes. The sound of crushing matter. So he does what felt most natural.
[Break][break]
He grabbed the woman's arm, pulled her into himself, and threw them backwards, into the rift.

Truly, it was her fault for thinking anything could go her way today. [break][break]

But she really doesn't see it coming, when he reaches for her arm and drags her. She has no prepared defenses, nothing but a few choice expletives as the sparking distortion consumes them whole and spits them out back into the streets of Mauville. [break][break]

Her breath comes out heaving as she breaks from his grip mid-flight - though they're only about three yards from the ground - and lands roughly. In a moment, their pokemon descend from the rift too, far more controlled. Even her Xurkitree makes it look easy, hanging from the rift with one lengthy limb before plopping onto the ground beside her. [break][break]

With both pokemon free, the rift closes. [break][break]

Ameena has half a mind to tell the kid off for his behavior, but he did help with the troublesome Avalugg, and he'd followed along with her gameplan otherwise. Still. She felt more animosity than gratitude. "That could have ended badly for you," she says instead, brushing herself off.

Her animosity was palpable. It tasted of salt and survival, so sharp, it nearly made him burst into a fit of laughter. Instead, he fell into a shrug, smiling behind his sunglasses and twinkling mischief.
[Break][break]
"Hey, I was only tryin' to help. Imagine what could've happen if I left ya alone."
[Break][break]
The avalugg could've rampaged back at them. The tear could've slammed shut. The possibilities were endless. [Break][break]

Still, none of those reasons were responsible for his decision. And his face said it all.
[Break][break]
"You don't got to. Because we went together," a brief chuckle broke loose, followed by his head tilting right, "...I never caught your name?"

He seemed a little proud of himself. [break][break]

She was used to breaking people, breaking enemy combatants back in her service in Galar and breaking those that stood in the way of her current goals. She felt an urge to knock some sense into the brat, but the only manifestation of it was a twitch of her finger. She had to preserve her civilian ID, though it pleased her that her face as a CEO was not so widespread as to make her instantly recognizable. It gave her a little leeway. [break][break]

Not enough to bust the kid's nose or anything, though. [break][break]

"And you won't." She returns Xurkitree to his pokeball because the giant is a little too unusual and intimidating to be seen roaming Mauville's streets. She turned from the kid easily, dismissive of any threat he could've posed to her, though he seemed to be the brave and rambunctious breed of youth that was exclusive to Rangers.
