he hesitates, then relents to the note of worry in THEO BECKETT 's voice. he doesn't need the help, but he finds himself flipping the tweezers over in his hand and holding them out for the underboss to take. [break][break]

marcus says nothing as jayden cross grasps for an answer, but his expression disquiets first at his inability to respond, then at the blood that begins to weep from his frostbitten skin. [break][break]his brows knit together and he reaches for his kirlia's pokeball, but the there-and-gone flash of pale blue in the admin's eyes makes his fingers still against the metal.
[break][break]
"no. i'm not."
[break][break]
he answers him flatly, swallowing down his contempt of the question. there's no purpose in killing him in his current state — though he supposes jayden has every right to be paranoid after his colleagues had tried to do just that. still, he probes:
[break][break]
"why do you think i'm here to kill you?"

"you're awake."
[break][break]
the words curl into themselves in front of his mouth, warm breath fogging up against the supernatural chill in the hospital room. jayden cross has more power than he has ever held in his life, yet he looks so frail now, confined to this bed.
[break][break]
jayden's reaction to seeing him and his half-uttered question are both brushed off. his gaze follows the trail of crystalized ice that still stubbornly clings to the admin's raw skin, regarding it with more curiosity than concern.
[break][break]
"how are you feeling?"

if they hadn't just willingly stepped inside the rift, marcus would have trouble believing that he and giada morgan are actually in a different universe. it feels like a perfect simulation; the ruined city looks too surreal to exist outside of some rocket scientist's imagination.
[break][break]
he looks up at the strange architecture looming overhead. dark, prismatic skyscrapers stare down at them. a light flickers in one of the rooms far above. they walk down a deserted street until they find an ornate building. like gargoyles, broken statues of unrecognizable beasts guard the façade from the rooftop.
[break][break]
unperturbed by their crystalline onlookers, marcus tries to open the door.
[break][break]
"hm. it's locked." [break][break]he turns to his partner. [break][break]"any ideas?"

gengar siphons swirling black dream mist into its mouth, but the gulf of its hunger widens as the armarouge gets weaker. the destiny bond tying the two pokemon together becomes a detriment as gengar feels its own strength slipping away the more it consumes, but the gnawing in its stomach commands it to continue gorging itself on dreams.
[break][break]
a lightning stiletto sails over marcus's head and strikes the psychic-type, waking it up. he looks over his shoulder and sees the rogue prince has teleported behind him.
[break][break]
"fairy lock!"
[break][break]
he can feel the fire of the armarouge's flame charge as the psychic-type crashes against the barrier imprisoning it. his burn stings painfully in the heat, but the ache is a kinder alternative to burning alive.
[break][break]
"gengar," he starts, rolling over to rest on his haunches. he puts his back to the fairy lock barrier, facing remiel. "end this."
[break][break]
disappointed and singed from the flame charge, the ghost-type gathers dark energy around its fist and plunges it into the original wound armarouge had carved out for it. gengar howls in agony, trembling with effort as it fights against its own burgeoning self-preservation, then faints.
[break][break]
from its still body, the shadowy vestiges of their destiny bond reaches out to claim the armarouge, too.

Genevieve Cromwell 's invitation hangs in the stale, cave air, untouched. marcus watches, arms folded, as she does his work for him. one by one, the work of her fellow rangers and officers is unmade. in a different universe, they could have worked side-by-side as field medics. [break][break]
but they're in this, unkind universe.
[break][break]
kirlia can feel the stirrings of her trainer's intentions, a low vibration beneath the clarity of her calm mind. as the ranger — genny — moves onto the next grunt, an invisible force reaches out for her midsection. silent, marcus keeps his eyes on her as his kirlia tries to toss her across the cave with psychic.

the unown's eye goes half-lidded, pleased, as Naomi Sato pats it on the head. it reacts to her questions by bouncing around energetically. the behavior becomes an answer only once marcus comes into her peripheral, bearing a box in his arms. scrawled across the top is a barely-legible, hastily-scrawled LAB EQUIPMENT label.
[break][break]
"ah."
[break][break]
he recognizes it as his own right away. it does another orbit around the two of them, then floats in close to kallistatus, drawn to the unown-k just as much as its trainer.
[break][break]
"it is. has it been causing issues?"[break][break]
he shifts the weight of the crate in his hands, then bends to set it down with the rest. while he's preoccupied, his unown looks at naomi with a big, pleading eye, as if to convince her to say it isn't being a problem.

the armarouge falls asleep, arms falling slack at its sides. the hypnotic glow in the gengar's eyes fade away, replaced by an unwieldly hunger. scrambling to its feet, it sets upon its vulnerable enemy, mouth open wide to try and eat its dreams. [break][break]
were it not for the electricity sparking off of Remiel Calcifet , marcus may have reached out for an ankle, a leg, something to drag him down to his level. instead, he reaches into his pocket and throws his klefki between them. [break][break]the fairy-type rights itself in mid-air, keys clattering together as it fires off a flash cannon at the prince.

drednaw remains afflicted by confusion, gnashing its teeth together around an invisible tormentor as pain lances through its mind. it thrashes in the water, oblivious to mudkip's attempts to fix the ship.
[break][break]
ollie morales 's question warrants no verbal response. a tide of rocket uniform-wearing grunts rolls onto the ship, breaking against fleeing league personnel with fists and pokemon. some startle at the familiar sight of pink mist, but others brush it off.
[break][break]
what is this? marcus wonders as the fog settles on the deck of the ship. most of it is blocked out by his helmet, but he gets the faintest waft of something sweet as he advances through the haze. his munna swims through it, zooming ahead of its trainer to pop out beside the head ranger.
[break][break]
its mind reaches out to his. to tether.
[break][break]
"you don't recognize me?" a feminine voice asks.

the hurricane dispels his dragon pulse in an instant. vicious winds tug at his clothes and yank his noivern sideways as it tries to stick a landing on top of the cave below PENELOPE LIVY .
it's rough and graceless but, by some miracle, he manages to remain on its back and not sprawled out among the stone outcroppings.
[break][break]
"porygon," he commands, voice gravelly and breathless from adrenaline. "discharge. above us."
[break][break]
the porygon materializes pixel by pixel, uploading itself from his phone and into reality. electricity crackles and snaps around its robotic body in the moments before arcs of lightning are shot up into the air.

the aerodactyl's loosened teeth embed themselves into reuniclus' skin like thorns. as the dinosaur staggers back, they pop out of the psychic-type's gel and clatter against the deck in a shower of serrated teeth. a wash of soothing light spreads through viscous jelly and visible organs as reuniclus recovers from the bite.[break][break]
it's short-lived.
[break][break]
the boat lurches with the aerodactyl's giga impact. steel crunches beneath the devastating force, splintering the deck. marcus stumbles sideways, reaching for the comfort of the railing. the vessel begins to right itself with a low groan.
[break][break]
and beneath the aerodactyl is his reuniclus. its wisdom-imbuing liquid follows the cracks in the damaged floor and drips from the sharpened edges of crumpled metal into the body of the ship. [break][break]
desperate, it tries to use psychic to blast the aerodactyl away.

"i'm no medical professional either," he echoes her sentiment, spreading an arm out to gesture towards the grunts. [break][break]
"be my guest, then. your hands look steadier than mine."
[break][break]
the grunts propped up against the wall watch the ranger. some stare reproachfully, others wince or groan with pain behind fully-masked features. kirlia takes a deep breath and uses calm mind to cleanse her head of intruding emotions and thoughts.

darkness surrounds them as they travel further into the cave. it feels like an impenetrable, all-consuming void. the nothingness is broken up by the reflection of interdream mist, by the sound of Lulu Flint 's voice and the water sloshing with each movement.
[break][break]
"you've dreamt of this before?"
[break][break]
aside from the pool at their feet, it feels like the oblivion of dreamless sleep.

marcus hears the scale shot whistle by, but chaos does not erupt — the beast missed. [break][break]his noivern hisses at the ugly sound and twists its body towards the challenge, wings snapping harshly against the air as it turns back toward the roaring moon. marcus feels his mouth go dry as the dragon-type resists his urgency to continue forward.
[break][break]
the invitation to rush them is written plainly in the way noivern hovers in place. rather than tooth and claw, a boomburst awaits them if they come close.

in his peripheral, he can see Remiel Calcifet closing in on him. his movements remain unhurried, burdened by searing pain around the edges of a startlingly numb wound. he rolls onto his stomach, presses his palms against the earth, and lets his uninjured arm shoulder most of his weight as he pushes himself onto his hands and knees.
[break][break]
gengar's fist strikes against the psychic embrace with a thump! [break][break]shadows hiss and meld greedily into the pink barrier, but the armarouge's flash fire casts the ghost-type away before it can capitalize on the weakened cracks forming. much like its trainer, it's slower to get up this time.
