Silver Notes: I got inspired by a talk in the discord server so here's a short scene of an AU where Niss is evil and fucked up. Obviously advanced spoilers for the real fic.


Evil Niss/Good Shadi AU

"N-Niss, please, I don't... I don't want to do this to you."

Shadi took a sudden step back, the hand holding onto Midir's Pokeball shaking violently, yet she kept it raised forward, pointing straight at the young girl as though she could shield herself against her with it. Inyssa stood before her, surrounded by almost a dozen beat up and unconscious bodies. That of their Pokemon. Only one was still standing, her whole body mirroring that of Inyssa herself, covered in cuts and scratches and a multitude of wounds.

Kricketune. Her sister's ace Pokemon.

"Hesitating? At a time like this? I expected more."

A chilling, blood-curling smile spread across the young girl's face, and Shadi felt as though the temperature of the room had dropped a few degrees. Blood ran down the girl's nose, sticking to her teeth and gums and dripping down her chin. She, however, didn't seem to notice, or mind for that matter.

"I don't want to hurt you!" hissed Shadi, her voice shaking. "P-please, if I use Midir you'll... you'll both..."

"We'll what?" asked Inyssa, smile dropping, eyes going wide. "We'll die?"

Shadi couldn't bring herself to reply. She didn't want to.

"You don't have to worry about us. After all... we are not afraid of pain, are we?" She voiced the question as though expecting her Kricketune to answer, although she didn't. The same cold smile had formed yet again on her lips. "Because I finally, finally figured it out, sis! It was so easy, I can't believe it took me so long to get it."

She placed her palms against her chest, as though pointing at her own wounded, barely held-together body. And yet, said body looked a lot more put-together than whatever gleamed behind those eyes of hers.

"If you want to know what you're really made of, there's one easy way to find out," she smiled. "You just need to break yourself"
