"Kazimir, what the fuck are you doing!?", Thomas berated the Emerald Knight.
"If you're going to support Necrozma, at least attack the other one!", Thomas continued.
Alas, Necrozma was allowed to win the bout between them. It seemed that avenging this world's Andraste was not in the cards. As it absorbed the Eternatus' energy, and began to charge up for one grand attack, Thomas got ready to face it. Defiant, even in the face of imminent death. If he was going to die, he would die roaring and fighting.
That was, until Zaican, in all of its glory, emerged to cut down the prismatic beast with a Behemoth Blade. It was not only a satisfying sight to the Kalosian, but a breathtaking one. It didn't stop the injured 'black knight' from escaping with the weakened Eternatus into an Ultra Wormhole. Thomas would attempt to fly after the creature, Kalameet firing Dark Pulses at it.
It was all for nothing, as the Necrozma escaped with its prey in tow. Exhaustion brought the duo back to the lands below. The cheers of the saved people caused the aged man to smile faintly, slumping over on the back of his dragon. Thomas stared up at the sky, watching as the stars told the story of the aftermath.
The giant Celesteela and Guzzlord were all too familiar to the Kalosian. Though he was protecting Verdanturf from Silas' final offensive at the time, he had read up on the events that transpired at Mossdeep.
As the world began to fade, Thomas shut his eyes, giving into what would happen next.
Memories of the years he spent training with
paxton concordas, the conversations with
Alexei Ivanov, and the confrontation with
Selena Desmarais all began to fade, like a dream.
Thomas stirred awake in front of the Ancient Tomb. He was back in the tactical gear he donned for the battle. There were no signs of Chien-Pao or Ting-Lu. He would spot Zaican and Zamazenta, in their 'weakened' forms in the distance, before they scattered into the Region.
Thomas hardly reacted to the rain as it poured down on him and Kalameet. He would feel something in his hand. Opening his clenched hand, he would spot a familiar necklace. One that
Andraste Breathnach owned.
Thomas flew off on his Hydreigon quietly, heading back home to Verdanturf Town.
