He stumbled to his feet, painfully aware of his broken surroundings. The once beautiful Mystri Stage, now shredded and torn into uneven chunks. Bodies everywhere…. Bodies-
"Oh Arceus, Silver and Crys!"
Rocks, rocks, rocks, where were they?
A flash of red grabbed his attention, and his voice caught in his throat when he saw Silver caught between two rocks, Crys unconscious in a pool of, of blood. He gingerly moved from platform to platform until he reached themv
"No…." By now, a sob rose from his throat and he shuddered as he brushed a few spare strands of red hair away from his friend's face.
They didn't deserve to die… Crys was just collecting Pokemon and having fun, and Silver finally had his father…
Tears kept coursing down his face and he reached for Togetaro and Pich. He would end this here. He had to.
Facing Arceus, he screamed "GO, TOGETARO AND PICH!"
For his friends…
"Use the technique we've been perfecting, THUNDER WING!"
As the explosion occurred, Gold closed his eyes.
'Thank you, my dear friends.'
He shot all the Pokeballs through the energy field, ensuring the Pokemon's safety, as he was blasted backwards.
He landed near Crys and Silver, and as the platform began to crumble, Gold linked their hands.
'Friends until the end',was his last thought as he fell, fell, fell.
