Pokemon Adventures: Where Legends Cross

Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon Adventures/Special.

Grr, now I'm goin' through my favorite part of the story I've written so far, and my progress is impaired by the absense of a certain springed notebook... :(


Chapter 29. Vs. Cofagrigus: Door of Death

SLAM!

"What the - " gasped Blue as she looked back from Umbry taking down a Royal Gurad's small group of Gothorita, toward where Platina was fighting... or rather, was supposed to be fighting.

Instead Blue saw the younger girl fallen backwards on her bottom with stark terror on her expression. Yellow was on her knees at the front, both Dex Holders looking up at the abnormally large Cofagrigus hovering in front of them. Strangely, the Coffin Pokemon's crimson eyes were wide open in dismay, looking down on its slightly-ajar door as if -

As if something was stuck inside.

For a single moment Blue wondered why Yellow looked so horrified in particular - as if she didn't know how soft she was - , as if someone she loved was dying inside that door.

Then she saw the Cofagrigus's door come slightly ajar, revealing a pair of red-gloved hands as they held it open.

"Red!" Blue almost screamed in shock as the tiny gap became wide enough for her friend's face to erupt out of it, gasping for breath as he struggled to keep the Cofagrigus from sealing him in. To his credit the Coffin Pokemon looked seriously flabbergasted by his efforts, hissing in anger as it tried in vain to shut the sarcophagus door on his face.

"Red-san!" Yellow cried as she finally got to her feet, rushing at the Cofagrigus with Ratty and Chuchu before Blue could even shout at her to look out. Sure enough, occupied with the rampaging Royal Guards nearby, Blue could only watch in horror as the Cofagrigus readily reached out to her with those four thin, black hands, ready to drag the little girl in as well...

"Yellow, no! Get back!" Red shouted as the lanky arms passed by his face, taking the chance to chomp down on one with his free mouth. Shrieking in fury the Cofagrigus began to strike him from all direction with its remaining three hands, trying to beat the Dex Holder inside as Blue rushed forth to pull Yellow back while Blasty and Nidory covered for her.

As she hit the ground with a struggling Yellow and scrambled back, Blue quickly handed the younger girl over to Grawy and Kirly, letting them deal with her as she called Umbry to her side. To his credit Red was enduring well as the Cofagrigus tried to beat him inside, but for how long?

"Master! What - Sharp, use Night Slash!"

Snapping her head up Blue saw that Black had noticed his master's danger, immediately springing forward with his Bisharp without hesitation. Knowing his skills as a Trainer Blue would've been relived, if it weren't for an evil glint that flashed in the Coffin Pokemon's eyes as Sharp leaped at it from behind.

"Black, wait!" Blue cried, a dark premonition suddenly shooting up her spine. Just as Sharp's blade came a single foot from the Cofagrigus's back, without warning the Ghost-type Pokemon whirled back to face the Bisharp, holding Red's struggling form out inches in front of the Night Slash attack.

"NO!"

"Sharp, pull back!"

Yellow and Black cried out simultaneously, but Sharp had already withdrawn before his blade impaled Red's throat. The Cofagrigus seized the chance to fling a Shadow Ball into the Bisharp's face, cackling madly as the Sharp Sword Pokemon shook off the cowardly attack angrily.

Looking away from Black cursing under his breath as he rushed over, Blue looked back at the Cofagrigus to see something even worse: Red's struggles were weakening ever so slightly. Upon a closer inspection she noticed that his teeth were gritted in pain, and a blue, sickly glow could be seen on his face.

He's been poisoned! She realized in horror, too aware of the devastating effects of Toxic. (#1)

"Don't worry, Master, we'll get you out - " growled Black in determination as he tried to circle around the Cofagrigus - who was still shielding itself with an intoxiciated Red - , but before he could take seven steps a heavy shape came crashing down next to him with a surprised grunt.

"Oh my, Cobalion!" White's shocked yelp slapped Blue's ears, and she hurriedly backed away with Yellow as the youngest girl rushed over with Terrakion to help the Iron Will Pokemon to his feet. To his credit Cobalion looked only slightly worn, but from the Guardians' expression it didn't look as if the work of subduing Kyurem was going very well.

"Black, you're supposed to be helping the Guardians with Kyurem!" Green's shout came out of nowhere as he appeared between Blue and Black. "We'll help out Red here. Go back to the others and do what you must!"

"He's my mentor!" Black protested, not taking his eyes off Red.

"And he's my friend!" Green suddenly snapped, his usually ice-cold eyes blazing. Blue almost flinched along with Black as Yellow's eyes rounded beside her. Green, openly angry? This was a part of him she had rarely seen before. Annoyed, plenty of times. Hardly angry.

"Look around you, no single person here doesn't want to help him!" Green continued harshly as he swept his hand around the chaotic chamber, even now keeping his words short. "And they would, if our mission doesn't come first. Leave Red to me and Yellow, and go do what you must!"

Black still looked as if he'd hesitate, but Green's burning look and Cobalion waiting silently for him from behind had him bend his will.

"...Okay," he croaked out at last, sharing one last look at Red - who nodded encouragingly at him - before turning back toward Cobalion. The Iron Will Pokemon waited patiently for the young Trainer to pass by him before leaping toward Kyurem again with the other three Guardians.

"Alright, hang in there, Red! We'll pull you out!" Green called out at his friend as he and Yellow surrounded the Cofagrigus with their Pokemon, cautiously trying to approach the trapped (and intoxicated) Red without harming him. Blue would've joined in, but circumstances required her to join Platina in keeping the grunts away from them.

"Clefy, Cosmic Power!" Blue cried as she noticed a Royal Guard unleashing his Frillish upon Platina's Rapidash. However, she didn't have time to see the Fairy Pokemon carry out her orders, for at the moment an enormous bellow suddenly rang out from her side.

"Blue-san, watch out!" Platina's cry proved itself unnessesary, as Blue had already whirled around to see Ghetsis's Bouffalant rushing toward her, its afro hairdo (...) lowered to deliver a devastating Head Charge at the Evolver.

"Umbry! Use Cur - "

"Sandbo, get the mad cow over here!"

Just as the Bouffalant came three feet from Blue and the Umbreon a pair of sturdy claws suddenly shot out of the ground, grabbing the startled Bash Buffalo Pokemon by the hind legs and holding on firmly.

"'kay, throw'em back over here!" Gold's shout rang out as a stalwart Sandslash shot out of the ground with a great spray of earth. Blue blinked in surprise as the Mouse Pokemon let out a huge heave, flinging the large Bouffalant over its shoulders, causing it to land in front of Silver with a loud crash.

"My bad, Blue-nee! Crobat, use Cross Poison!" Silver chose to apologize to Blue first before having his Crobat land an envenomed slash attack on the Bouffalant's critical spot, knocking it out instantly.

Smiling a little at her brother's embarassment, Blue turned back to help Platina against another group of Team Plasma, only to hear a familiar sharp cry of a Pikachu from behind.

"Pika!" Blue cried, spinning round to see Red's partner recklessly launch himself toward the Cofagrigus. However the Coffin Pokemon was ready for him, at once holding the wedged Red out toward Pika while swiping out at him with all four arms. To his credit the Mouse Pokemon managed to dodge them all, but was in turn effectively barred access to Red before Chuchu pulled her mate back in time.

"Staro, use Brave Bird! Lili, Weather Ball!" "Mienshao, use Jump Kick!"

Oops, distracted again. Guiltily looking away from the rescue scene, Blue quickly returned her attention to the front and found that Ruby and Emerald had taken over in her absence, with Ruby temporarily teaming up with Sapphire's Roserade while the wild girl helped Virizion against Kyurem. With a curious blink she realized that all the Dex Holders - including herself - had gained a new member since they last met.

"Don't mind us, Green-senpai!" Ruby shouted at Green as he and Yellow still tried to get to Red. "We can keep the grunts at bay. Just focus on getting Red-senpai outta there!"

"We'll help too!" The fierce voice belonged to Pearl as he stepped in front of Blue and Platina, leading both his and some of Diamond's Pokemon by his side. "Rookies we may be, but even we know something about loyalty. We won't let anyone harm our comrades, not for the world!"

Blue felt her heart warm as she looked into all those that willingly stood in front of her for someone whom they had met less than ten minutes ago. It was more than just Red's amiable nature that drew them here, made them face an insane deity or a madder villian, trapped within a storm of chaos and disaster. Almost for the first time since coming to this region - second, really - Blue was reminded of the dream that led them here, and almost for the first time she came to believe in destiny.

"Cofagrigus, you imbecile!" The infuriated cry of Ghetsis destroyed her short moment of awe and gratefulness. "Have you no brains - Hydreigon, use Focus Blast! - ? Open the Vortex. Consume them all! Show them whose spirit you once bore within!" (#2)

Blue only had a moment to glare at the High Sage, now again busy keeping Giovanni's extremely-angry Rhyperior away, before her thought reached to what the 'Vortex' might be.

"Red - " she spoke as she turned around, only to stop short and feel her eyes tear their sockets in utmost shock and horror.

There was Green, Yellow and their Pokemon mixed together with Red's, all their expressions equally distorted in dismay. There was Red, no longer wedged between the great coffin doors but hovering midair, his own face blank with surprise. There was the Cofagrigus, its doors widely open and its grin wide and hideous.

There was the great void within the Coffin Pokemon, with something black and ominous swirling inside as it beckoned to its would-be prisoner.

All this Blue perceived for a single moment, an instant before the void began to pull Red inside.

After that moment, her sense of perceiving ceased.

"NO!" Several voices shouted at once, hers not the least. So many that Blue had no idea who had and who hadn't, though she was sure that everyone cried. But she could tell who had exclaimed the loudest (besides, of course, Red's Pokemon): the two that actively lounged toward Red's falling form.

"Red-san!" Yellow cried as she sprang forth and held onto one of Red's limp arms, holding him in place long enough for Green to grab the other and stop the Vortex from claiming him. Thrown off by the sudden halt of momentum Red choked as he coughed out blood, and a chill ran down Blue spine as she observed the liquid's dark-red hue of venom.

"Machamp, grab its arms!" Green yelled at the Superpower Pokemon as the Cofagrigus let out a frustrated hiss, outstretching its four hands at Red hovering just inches in front of the half-open door and trying to pull him back in. With a hasty leap Green's Machamp landed directly behind the Coffin Pokemon, snatching the thin arms back behind itself and effectively binding it in place. (#3)

"Hang in there, Red-san. I'll heal you!" Panted Yellow as she held onto Red's right arm with failing strength, obviously struggling to muster enough strength to pull him back and undo his poisoning at the same time. It worked to an extent; as she busily held back the Royal Guards with the others Blue kept glancing back at her friends, and each time she looked back Red's face became less pale.

"Thanks, Yellow!" Panted Red as he turned his gaze to Green. "Now's the chance, both of you. We gotta knock this Cofagrigus out before it causes more mayhem! Use my Pokemon with yours to bring it down!"

"Leave it to us," assured Green, but to Blue's surprise Yellow shook her head in dismay.

"But you might get hurt, Red-san!" The Healer protested as she silently stopped Grawy and Dody from advancing. "We'll get you out of there first. Attacking can come later!"

"Yellow, look at yourself!" Red exclaimed, a bit more forcefully now that the poison was removed from his system. "You can't hold onto me anymore, not after using up all your energy. You can barely stand as it is!"

"No!" Yellow wailed, but it seemed to Blue that already her voice was getting feebler. Turning behind one last time, her eyes widened in alarm that her hands looked as if they would slip from Red's at any moment - how glad she was that Green's grip was firm!

But to her credit Yellow's grip was just as stuborn - which caused disaster to approach in a different form. Even as Blue watched in horror Yellow slipped; not her hands, but her feet. With a yelp of surprise Yellow's whole body lifted, swinging dangerously toward the large Vortex while still clutching Red's arms.

"Yellow, no!" Red cried, desperately pulling her back from her doom. Green quickly reached out to grab his former apprentice's free arm, but Blue was faster. Before her thought made progress her feet shot out first, and the Evolver swiftly dived toward the falling Yellow and wrapped her arm around the younger girl's waist before the Cofagrigus claimed her. At the same time she grabbed Green's free arm reaching out for Yellow, heaving her entire body back and pulling all three of her friends against the Coffin Pokemon's might.

At once the pressure struck Blue like a battering ram, the sheer pull of the black hole threatening to tear her arms out of her sockets. She'd damn herself if she let them go, though; these were her friends, her saviors that granted new life to her and her brother. She would never abandon them, not for the world.

Apparantly, she wasn't the only one who thought so.

A strong arm wrapped itself around her elbow before Green could so much as exclaim "Blue!", hauling her back further from the Vortex. With a blink of surprise at the familiar touch of black fabric, Blue looked away from her friends' amazed expressions to look into her brother's light gray eyes as he raked his free hand across the stone floor for support.

"Silver, you - " gasped Blue as she looked at him in shock, momentarily forgetting the crushing pull of the Cofagrigus and the Vortex.

"... sorry, Blue-nee," The whirling noises of the Vortex and the pain of its pull on her arms that held onto Green and Yellow made it difficult for Blue to hear Silver's murmur. "I know what danger we're facing here. I ... I just can't bear to be away when you're facing something like this."

"Eh, but neither could we!"

Blue looked up to see a hand shoot down to Silver, who was desperately scraping on the floor to gain headway. Without hesitation the Exchanger took the hand for dear life, allowing the newcomer to join the deadly tug-of-war.

"Heads-up, pal! Crys, help me hold the stick steady!" Gold shouted, slamming his billiard cue deep into the cracked floor. Crystal was beside him at once, grabbing the tough wood with both hands and plunging it deeper into the ground. Immediately Gold threw his entire weight toward the cue and pulled, managing to drag Red away from the clutches of the Cofagrigus by a single inch.

Blue looked at them all, from those who strove to pull Red away from the Vortex at the risk of their own lives, to the younger ones standing in front of them to protect them from Team Plasma without the slightest hint if hesitation. These were her friends, the Dex Holders. Blue blinked away tears from her eyes, reminding herself that there was still a job to be done.

Despite five people pulling away on the airborne Red and Yellow with all their strength, they were hardly making any headway against the Coffin Pokemon's ridiculously strong pull. Ghetsis's string of curses seemed to have inspired it to strengthen the Vortex even further; now the black hole was almost too big for the coffin to contain, beginning to spill out of the wide-open door until its event horizon almost touched Red's feet.

"NO!" Crystal exclaimed from behind as she gripped on the cue even tighter, one arm stretched forward to pull on Gold as well.

"Yes!" Laughed Ghetsis, somehow finding time to mock her desperation as he continued to spar with Giovanni. "You see the might of my effort for perfection before your eyes. Behold the jewel of my collection, the Coffin that once held the body of a hero! What hope have you against its might?"

"Shut the hell up!" Gold snapped angrily, gritting his teeth as Silver's hand slipped half an inch from his grasp. "If ya think just your strength can convince us to give up and let our friends die, your DEAD wrong!"

"That's right, guys!" Blue looked back to see Red shouting from in front of the annoyed-looking Cofagrigus. "We're not alone in this fight, we've just proven that! Come on, Saur, Poli, Snor! Help us out!"

"Of course!" Blue cried in delight as Red's three Pokemon hurried over to join them, a surge of joy grasping her as they added their strength against the aghast Cofagrigus. Of course, they have always been with their Pokemon, braving every danger and sorrow together. How could they forget them even for a moment, believe that they had to struggle through this hardship alone? "Blasty, Nidory, Bully! Come help!"

"Grawy, Dody, Kirly! Please help!"

"Golduck, Charizard, come over! Machamp, keep holding the Cofagrigus!"

"Exbo, Aibo, Sunbo, Sudobo, come give us a boost!"

"Feraligatr, Rhyperior!"

"Megaree, Monlee, Bonee! Let's do this together!"

All around Blue looked around in wonder as Pokemon after Pokemon rushed over to hold on to their Trainers and pull, their united might threatening to rip her shoulders apart but also filling her heart with happiness and hope. It's working!

And it was working. Blue could feel her body slowly moving forward, and Silver's grip on her arm was slightly relaxing as their distance shortened. Looking around at her friends Blue could see that their expressions were equally alight in joy. It was working. They could save Red from the pull of the Cofagrugus!

"What?" She could hear Ghetsis roar in disbelief some distance away, but a great bellow from Giovanni's Rhyperior and the returning shriek of his own Hydreigon quickly drowned his voice.

"Just a little more, guys!" Gold shouted enthusiastically as he pulled himself toward the imbedded cue with all his might. "As soon as we get Red-senpai outta there we can bust this creepy fellow's ass into a bloody pulp!"

That seemed to give a boost to the Pokemons' morale, and and with a final cry of triumph they as one gave a mighty heave. Feeling their strength increase Blue also threw her entire weight away from the Cofagrigus, and was satisfied by the greatest jerk ever. Looking ahead at the Vortex her heart soared to see that Red was well over a foot away from the event horizon. Unable to retain its hold over Red due to the increase of distance, the Coffin Pokemon howled in fury as it struggled in vain to free its hands. But Green's Machamp's grip was tight, and the four black hands remained where they were.

"One last try!" Green bellowed, taking a final step back with a groan. Feeling the blood rush to his arms Blue followed his steps backward, putting all her strength in that last heave. In that single instant, in front of what could have been doom for a couple of brave but perished Dex Holders, seven humans and twenty Pokemon united their hearts and cried as one, taking one last step back as they put their everything in that one final pull. And then -

"Oof!" Blue cried as she hit the ground, Yellow falling on top of her and Green and Silver by her side. Quickly scrambling to her feet, Blue looked around in confusion for a moment as people and Pokemon were strewn all over the place. Then she turned forward to see that Yellow and Green was looking at the same place together with joy and relief apparant on their faces. Following their gaze all the way to the front of the still-bound Cofagrigus, Blue also saw to her ultimate delight -

"Alright, I'm out! Now let's kick this dude's ass!" Red cried as he stood tall on his feet, immediately calling his Pokemon by his side. "Pika, do the honors! Attack from the side where the Vortex can't reach you!"

The little Pikachu shot forward with an enthusiastic cry, but to Blue's surprise two more shapes joined his side, looking at their Trainers with pleading eyes.

"Yes, Chuchu, you may," said Yellow softly, smiling at the sight of the two mates standing side by side.

"Hell yeah, Pichu! Give 'em the hell for everyone!" Gold shouted, pumping his fists in the air as he looked proudly at the son of the little family.

"Cofagrigus, you fool! Use Protect!"

"VOLT TACKLE!" Red, Yellow and Gold's shout drowned out Ghetsis's hasty command, sending the three Mouse Pokemon (#4) hurtling forward with their bodies crackling with golden electricity. Not having seen the move for four years, Blue could just barely remember the huge impact it had made the last time she had seen it, with enough power to completely electrocute the sea-energy monster in the form of Kyogre.

"Get down, everyone!" was the best warning she could give to the Sinnoh Dex Holders, who probably had no idea of the move's destructiveness.

"Machamp, return!" Green yelled, recalling the Cofagrigus's jailor just in time for his role to become unnessessary; just before she hit the ground herself Blue heard the unmistakable sound of impact from ahead, and -

PZ - ZAP!

A great explosion of electricity ripped across the air, sweeping the entire ground above the Dex Holders' heads and slightly singing the top of Blue's hat.

"Woo yeah!" Shouted Gold and Pearl simultaneously as a round orb of electrified energy blasted into existence around the Cofagrigus, filling the throne room with blinding white light; neither of them, being them, had taken cover.

"Amazing..." whispered Platina, crouched down beside Blue as they both stared in wonder at the energy orb, which was already fading by this time. As suddenly as it had appeared it dissipated, leaving the breathless Pika, Chuchu and Pichu panting in front of a charred and defeated Cofagrigus, its coffin doors finally shut and lying on its face defeated.

"ALL RIGHT!" Several voices shouted all at once- Blue's not the least - as Red stood up straight, only to get mobbed by scores of Dex Holders and Pokemon as they rushed forward to embrace their rescued captain. Truth be told, the only ones that got his embrace were his Pokemon and Yellow; Green, being him, only knocked fists with him, and Silver only shared a friendly nod with him as well.

"Thanks, all of you," said the Fighter as Blue walked up to him, smiling sheepishly as he looked all around at his friends and comrades in gratitude. "That was one heck of a welcome-back party, guys. I guess I'll just stick with this lot in the future."

"Even better, why don't we just ALL live together?" Blue suggested cheekily, giggling slightly as she remembered her own joke six years ago. (#5) Red and Yellow didn't laugh, though they did look at each other meaningfully; they remembered. Surrounded by her friends, her Pokemon, their Pokemon, with Green and Silver smiling (a rare experience) beside her, Blue couldn't help but wish that this moment of happiness would last just a little longer.

She should have known that fate couldn't be trusted to let that happen.

An inhuman shriek snapped her attention back to the present, only for her to duck down with the others as an enormous explosion of cold energy rippled through the ravaged chamber. Daring to raise her head, Blue's eyes widened in shock to see the Four Guardians and the Dex Holders who had been helping them fly away from a screaming Kyurem into the walls, sliding down to the floor with exhausted groans.

"No, Sapphire!" Ruby cried as he rushed over at once to Sapphire and Virizion, who looked the most injured (and frozen) of the eight. Diamond, Black and White seemed to be in little better shape, and Cobalion, Terrakion and Keldeo were all staggering. On the other hand, Kyurem looked far better than it had been during its first appearance, now standing in full height, eyes gleaming brighter still, and its entire body radiating power.

"That's right, Kyurem! Crush them all!" Ghetsis yelled gleefully form somewhere behind the Dex Holders, somehow still managing to shout stuff like that while locked head-to-head with Giovanni; from what Blue could gather neither men were afraid of going below the belt and aiming for the Trainer rather than the Pokemon.

A sudden dread washed over Blue as she sensed an ominous ring in the High Sage's voice, and almost instictively her gaze whirled toward Silver.

How she hated it when her hunches - which were usually dark ones - came true.

The Boundary Pokemon's yellow eyes suddenly swerved to lock on Silver, saliva dripping from its jaws as it leered at the Exchanger.

No, not him.

Ever since her unforgettable youth within the clutches of the Mask of Ice, she was always together with Silver. Brother and sister they were, not blood-related though they were, their bonds formed and hardened within that place of grief and darkness couldn't be compared to any siblingship. They were the strength for each other, the reason that they willed themselves to keep on living and not give up. Even as they escaped that dreadful place together they promised to survive...

She wasn't about to break that promise, and she would certainly not live to see Silver break it first.

"NO! SILVER!" Blue screamed at the top of her lungs, running toward her surprised brother as fast as her wobbling legs could carry her. She wasn't sure doing this could save Silver as Red had saved Yellow, but she definitely knew she would have to try...

No, I can't save him like this. Someone... anyone... if you can help him, please... SAVE HIM!


Yes, someone! Please save Silver! And while you're at it, please save me from my slump too! :( Since I lost that godamn note my updating speed has slowed to a quarter...

#1. I dunno how Toxic exactly works, though. How do you inject the venom into the opponent? I'm just assuming that the Cofagrigus used some kinda curse...

#2. Although I didn't have space to elaborate on it within the story, Ghetsis's Cofagrigus is actually the ghost of one of the brothers that appears in the legend of Unova. According to the PokeDex entry Yamask is said to bear the mask of its own face when it was still alive as a human...

#3. How did Machamp grab a Ghost-type Pokemon? Foresight, Foresight. Battle requires creativity.

#4. Well, Pichu is the Tiny Mouse Pokemon...

#5. LegendaryPokemonMew, that's a request fulfilled from your former review. Trust me, I didn't have this planned from the start.

G.F.T.W, have I been spelling your pen name wrong all this time? And you've been reviewing this fic since chapter 1... OMG, world of apologies! Oh and I forgot to mention this on the last chapter... right, Deoxys. Should've known. Well, he's not here, but who knows? Perhaps the deities are not through with the Dex Holders yet... XDDD

Franticfannatic, I explained in Chapter 12 that Ruby and Sapphire sorta traded... so Lili used to be Ruby's, and Staro Sapphire's. Kind of a birthday gift swap for the lovely couple XD And traded Pokemon keep their nicknames, so... I stuck at that. Maybe I should've made that plainer in Chapter 12...

lpride21, when I first began writing this fic Pearl's Pokemon didn't have English names, so I had to use their Japanese names instead. Back then on Bulbapedia Rayhiko was Torahiko, and Tauhiko Tarohiko (now Taurohiko) and so on. And for consistency's sake I didn't change that. Hope you understand :)

And OH CRAP, Black's done it again! Recently in the manga Poka evolved from Tepig into Pignite, and Black subsequently changed his name into Chao! Grr... so that means by the time he hits Emboar stage his name will have changed again... ah well, I'll just stuck with Poka until that time comes, then I might go along with it. Seriously, no one has changed nicknames before in the manga... kinda threw me.

In the next chapter, Ghetsis finally unleashes his fullest against the Dex Holders... who will stop him? Though I think you already know the answer ;) Well, until then, R&R! And I seriously hope I can write this one more quickly...
