"That sounds about right. The fact that my body can still function even in this state..." Elaine moved her free arm around and watched as the disconnected wrist and hand still moved as if the joints they connected to existed was evidence enough that there was merit to Violet's hypothesis."Means that there is the potential for reversal. Though the question of how is another story."
It wasn't just that, however. The multitude of people with similar injuries. The methods of how they had been moving between terminals. The presence of their dead-eyes copies beneath them. Each of them was evidence that there was potentially some method for reversal of the damage they had all taken from the assaults and scans. However, Elaine had little time to ruminate over it all as the voice of the spectacled man from before had broken through, signaling that someone had solved the sequence.
In other words, it was at least time to listen to what he had said. And as she did, something became clear. The talk of the death of the multiverse. Multiversal contraction. Calamities. Dimensional Traversal.
All of them were grand concepts that alluded to an impending end.
THIRD SCAN COMPLETE. THREE OUT OF FOUR SCANS COMPLETE.
Yes, they were all grand concepts. Such was fitting for someone like Elaine who held grandiose dreams...for someone who had been chasing...what exactly?
Elaine pondered for a short moment as she realized something.
Multiversal Contraction?
The Origin Point of the End?
None of that really mattered to her in the end.
Elaine lightly squeezed at the hand of Violet Fairbanks as she came to think through it all.
"Yeah, none of those larger than life ideas really matter."
The people who had gone berserk and started attacking each other. Escaping from this godforsaken space with their lives intact. Escaping alive with the friend whose hand she was clutching.
She looked back to Violet and gave a smile that was so uncharacteristically gentle that one would think that she had lost a few years of time, enough to erase those days from her mind.
Elaine was not the type of person who cared for those grandiose realities. She was the type of person who could fight for something smaller and face the world for the sake of it. To prevent the tragedy before it could happen.
She faced back towards the one who had lost his restraint and attacked. Her smile had become a momentary grin before being replaced with a scowl.
"Astrape, set." She pointed two fingers towards the Gyarados. That was all it took. All she needed to steel her courage and walk forward into the fray without hesitation. All it took for her to just momentarily let go of Violet's hand. "Use Roar towards all of them."
She had walked forward and shouted out. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU GUYS ARE DOING?! ARE YOU ALL IDIOTS?! FOCUS ON FINDING YOUR WAY OUT OF HERE FIRST BEFORE PULLING EVERYONE INTO YOUR PETTY SQUABBLES LIKE IDIOTS!"
Jubilife's Juvenile Ace had returned in full force.
TL;DR:
- A visual reference for Elaine's missing body parts.
- Scan Result 1: Fear-Erased. Grandiosity-Erased. Courage-Restored.
- Scan Result 2: Elaine forgets the series of events that led to her trauma. Her Megalomania is erased as a result.
- Scan Result 3: Astrape (Luxray) forgets Ability Intimidate. Asteria (Absol) forgets ability Pressure. Ginga (Metagross) remains deleted.
- Elaine lets go of Violet's hand for a moment
- Elaine commands Astrape (Luxray) to use Roar in an attempt to forcefully send back FERNANDO SILPH 's Gyarados and intimidate all the people making threats
