[attr="class","ihead"]THE DEAD
[break][break]
DRAMATIC FLASHES OF FIRE & LIGHTNING strobe across the misty-terrained and electric-terrained graveyard. each fiendish reveals a corpus of gore. twitching limbs. bodily pyres. the gnashing of splintered teeth. as
AYAME FUJIWARA's powders erupt into walls of flame, the coarse stink of burning flesh strangles the senses.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
as the zombie horde rushes forth, the pokemon who release their galvanic energies find their attacks being funneled to
kyle lopez's
LIGHTNING ROD MANECTRIC, sparing those in the sky. a frankenstein-lightning plunges into the heart of the horde like a spear. for a moment, the entire courtyard is illuminated bone-white. the ensuing explosions of electricity and fire toss the mass of corpses all over.[break][break][break]
fortunately, the zombies have weathered the violence of death before. fortunately for
them. an ethereal resilience resides in some of their bones. explosions from the fire and lightning
toss clusters of zombies back and
closer.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
Emma Wolfe's galvantula pauses, witnessing its
DISCHARGE be siphoned into
kyle lopez's manectric. the zombies immediately before it toss themselves onto the arachnid, popping its beady eyes with their teeth. likewise,
Blaine Jones's raichu discovers that its
THUNDER is drawn away. the last things it sees are the unhinging maws of the dead.[break][break][break]
although @bryony's altaria is able to flee with its empowered
MOONBLAST, the ensuing detonations cause one of the undead to be flung onto her whimsicott. those nearby will be able to hear the poor fairy's cries as its cotton is ripped to shreds, its agile body now torn asunder. several zombies are tossed upwards. despite their missing legs or bodies, their amputated bodies catch
persephone amavi's chandelure and dig into its spirit and black frame.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
Blake Wright's aegislash is bitten into, but the teeth scrape off its metal blade. however, his golisopod is not so lucky. as it attempts to
EMERGENCY EXIT, the expeditious zombies are able to latch onto its limbs, tearing them off in damning bursts of blood and pus.
Bailey Cooper's meowstic faces the same fate. zombies surround the psychic cat and deafen its mews under a mass of undead.[break][break][break]
everyone's efforts are enough to provide enough time for those at the gate; however,
kyle lopez witnesses disaster. the remaining zombies are drawn to the manectric's resounding attack, the noise, energy and light attracting their grasping hands and mouths. despite @n0ble's mega-evolved garchomp, the undead target the dog. those closest swarm the manectric, biting into its spiked body. oddly, the zombies stop attacking and peel away. from the heap of canine-corpse,
kyle lopez's mega manectric...[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
rises once again.[break][break][break]
ripping sinew and tendon, its head peels into two.[break]its exposed vocal cords whistle with spittle and ichor.

[attr="class","ihead"]INSIDE THE CASTLE
[break][break]
[break][break][break]
with
illeana reyes's encouragement,
cadis von klaussner and
CHANCELOR MCQUEEN test the locks. with their pokemon, they strike the colored locks with an elemental assault. empoleon, decidueye, and infernape watch as their attacks connect... and are rewarded with screaming. each lock breaks with a wail, and the gate heaves its last breath. its iron lungs exhale to swing the doors open.[break][break][break]
kyle lopez's corrupted manectric (
wearing a t-shirt) bolts toward the party. each stride causes the flesh from its limbs to slough off. as the last trainer and their pokemon pass through the gate, it slams close to the sound of clawing.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
inside, the party is greeted to a grand foyer. chandelure float above, but lack any expressiveness. instead, they hover in benign, hypnotic orbits. beside the floating ghosts, portraits of the black creature (darkrai) they have seen before dominate the walls. however, they are vandalized with six sets of claw-like markings.[break][break][break]
before them, there are three large cast-iron elevators. no other exits exist. there are plaques above each elevator. they read:[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
lightning flashes. within the windows, the silhouettes of the undead cut harshly against the glass.[break][break][break]
WHAT WILL YOU DO?
[break][break][break][break]
