AN: WELL THAT DIDN'T TAKE FOREVER BY ANY MEANS *flop* I blame Pokemon X.
Urrrghhhhhhhhh. Ahem. Anyways.
Lots of thanks to my good friend Sandy for reminding me about this - it almost got lost in the back of my Projects You Will Never Get Around To Finishing mental folder~
Anyways. On with the show!
"HEY! OVER HERE!"
A rock sailed through the air and clanked off of the leader's helmet. He turned to see Temerson scrabbling in the dust for another pebble, futilely trying to distract the murderous Pokemon from his surrogate brothers.
Baelin, getting the idea, found a pebble of his own to throw at the Bisharp in hopes of distracting it for another moment, but with much less practice than Temerson the projectile flew wide of its mark.
At the same time, Damian noticed the rock behind him pulsing warmer - or was it colder? - with a strange energy. But before he could voice his observation, the meteor exploded with a loud bang. The resulting shockwave knocked Damian and Baelin onto their stomachs as fragments of crystalline space rock flew everywhere. One form, nearly indistinguishable from the surrounding crystals, skyrocketed towards their aggressor.
The dragon, as Temerson realized it was, tackled the Bisharp to the ground, unaffected by its protruding blades. The creature only had to growl menacingly once before the Pokemon blanched, wriggled out from under it, and raced off into the undergrowth. Its band of Pawniard followed, with a bit of encouragement in the form of a jet of fire from the dragon's mouth.
The twins, now alone in the crater with the dragon, looked up in fear and awe. Temerson, more frightened than he'd ever been in his life, turned and ran back to the village to get help. He didn't know if his brothers would survive for long against that... thing, but he still felt he had to do something, so he continued running through the nighttime forest.
AN: a bit short but
by my estimates the next chapter should hopefully be longer than usual
...My estimates are quite frequently horribly off.
