Saturday, 8:45 p.m.
5 minutes earlier…
Glaceon
"C'mon, Luke, you can't be so stern on Ray. It wasn't exactly his fault."
He stopped and looked down to Glaceon, stopping also.
"…Well, when exactly was he supposed to tell you?"
"When he knew who it was."
"Well…uhm…" Glaceon kept on walking. "…Don't exactly think that would be the best idea in the world."
He stopped again. "Why not?"
Glaceon looked up. "You would've still beat him to death either way."
"Hmph…" Luke continued on walking.
"Well… How did Luxray get out of his bandages?"
"I don't care."
Glaceon stopped this time, glaring at Luke, who stopped right after. "Okay, seriously, calm the fuck down. He didn't fuck up the first time, it sure as hell won't be the last. It wasn't his fucking fault that someone killed her. I know it really sucks the love of your life died in a fight, but shit happens. Shit…happens!"
"Alright, alright…" Luke flatly responded, rubbing his forehead with his paw. He kept on walking. "…I'm sorry."
"I shouldn't be given the need to be apologized."
"…Next time you see Ray, tell him I said 'I'm sorry'."
"Alright… Though it would've been better if you physically could tell him that."
"Whatever."
The two walked on along the park, with nobody around but them two, or at least they thought. For a day like this, it was almost awkward to not see anybody around; or at least, to Glaceon's concern. The two walked on along the empty park, Glaceon looking around.
"The freakin' hell happened here?" Glaceon asked.
"What do you mean?" Luke asked, facing forward.
"Try looking around." Luke looked around, seeing the emptiness around the grass illuminated by its twilight sky.
"I…don't know…" Luke responded with a slight ease in mood. They both kept on walking with their guard up, expecting the worst to come.
Along the way, they both saw two silhouettes appear behind a few trees, side by side. They didn't know who it was, or who they were; only that they seemed to face them both. Glaceon and Luke kept on walking, only to see the silhouettes get in their path. Both stopped, barely seeing the image of the two, one being more than twice as tall than the other.
"…Can you, like…" Glaceon started, "…get out of the way?"
"No," the smaller figure responded, "But you can get out of ours."
"Completely that is," the larger figure responded.
"What the hell do you mean?" Glaceon asked.
"You've been in our way ever since your friend had gotten in our business," the smaller one responded. "Even if it had a small impact upon our future plans…"
"…We cannot allow this small disruption to get any bigger."
Glaceon did not respond back, nor did Luke. They both only glared at those who they now know are not their friends. The smaller shade walked up a bit, fading away what could not be shown. It was revealed to be a Houndour, and clearly saw that it had its eye on Glaceon. The larger figure only leaned in slightly, revealing itself to be a Charizard, its eyes on Lucario.
Neither of them moved, only glaring at each other. Who would pull the first move, no one knew.
Nothing else to do… Luke thought to Glaceon. Glaceon didn't respond back; he couldn't respond with his aura, if any.
Luke sniffed out, and the Charizard charged forward.
Luke only ducked down as the large dragon came about, barely missing him by an inch. The Houndour beside only opened his muzzle and breathed out fire against Glaceon; he simply jumped out of the way.
The Charizard jumped up and soared around, then quickly dashed at Luke. He wasn't prepared for the dash and tried to stop him with his paw; but the enemy dashed quicker than before, launching Luke up in the air. Charizard dove under Luke and launched him sky high, then soared up faster than Luke's launch. He looked down at Luke as he reached his final height, opened his large maw and blasted out the fire within him, more than what Luke knows he can withstand, blasting him down. The Charizard charged quickly down at Luke at a screw, hitting him with in the stomach.
Glaceon dashed at Houndour and tackled him, throwing the small enemy back. Houndour caught his fall, and used Double Team, having himself appear only 2 other clones of himself, circling around the Ice Pokémon. One of them Quick Attacked at Glaceon, flinching at the move until the body went through him, vanishing in the air. The second body facing Glaceon used Flamethrower, Glaceon attempting to guard and closing his eyes, only to be hit on his side, opening his eyes, no longer seeing the body there.
Luke kicked out of his trap against Charizard and quickly got back up to his feet, charging his Aura Sphere. Charizard opened up his maw and blasted out small embers at Luke. Luke dashed back, charging his Sphere again; the dragon charged at him, Luke dashing back, then grabbing his maw with one paw and blasting him away with the other. Luke brought back his Sphere and blasted it toward Charizard, making a clean blow against him.
The Houndour was still up in Glaceon; only thing Glaceon could do was freeze up a bit and stand up his fur. The Houndour yelled out against the sharpness of his prickled fur, moving back a bit. Glaceon looked at the Houndour and opened his maw and blasted him with his Ice Beam. The Houndour grunted a bit from the damage, but didn't exactly end up frozen. "Dammit…" Glaceon said to himself.
Luke didn't charge at the dragon, but only charged another Sphere again, stronger than before. Charizard land on the ground and quickly got up, slowly running up toward Luke and made another Fire Blast at Luke, smaller than the first he made. Luke used Extreme Speed to evade and move closer to the enemy and punched twice as his tail grew steel, and moved around, whacking the dragon in the face, launching his out again. The dragon looked back at Luke as he was launched out, and blasted again, again smaller than before, hitting Luke, but not enough to get launched back. The dragon landed on his feet and took something out from the belt he had, not known to Luke, opening the capsule and taking in what it had, and throwing out the empty container.
The Houndour charged at Glaceon as he himself thought to do the same. Both ran toward each other, the Houndour holding down his head, Glaceon looking at where he ran. Meeting up, Glaceon moved lightly to the right of him, prickling his fur again against the Houndour, him yelping out.
The Charizard dashed to Luke again as he tried to bring up his guard again. He Fire Blasted again at Luke, somehow stronger than what it was before, blowing him out of the way to the ground. The Charizard kept on charging, blasting again with an equal force, stumbling upon the fallen foe.
Glaceon looked over at Luke. "Luke!" He yelled out. "Get up!"
Luke struggled to get up as the Charizard flew around him, gazing at his weak state. Standing up completely, he looked up at the Charizard. "Why don't you get down here if you're man enough!?" Luke yelled out.
The Charizard dove down at the Lucario and soared skyward, tripping out Luke at his expense.
"Dammit, Luke!" Glaceon yelled out, looking at him. "Stop getting pissed and focus on that fucker!" He quickly turned to the Houndour and blasted him with the Ice Beam again. It hit the Houndour and froze him off, lifting up the enemy up from all fours barely. Finally… he thought. He ran toward the Houndour and Quick Attacked, breaking the Houndour free but launching him up. Glaceon quickly stepped down and looked back at the Houndour and beamed him again, freezing him by luck, leaping up and dashing again, cracking him open.
Luke stood up again. "…He's right…" He shook his head, trying to get this straight and looked at the Charizard, who was still up in the air.
The Charizard leaped down and sped up, Fire Blasting against him. Luke flashed off, and reappear behind Charizard, kicking the dragon down. He flashed off again, and reappeared above, kicking down the Charizard again. The Charizard roared out, grabbing Luke's legs and throwing him off, quickly getting up on his feet. He walked up to Luke and picked him up, shoving him to his feet.
The dragon then grabbed Luke quickly, from his back, picking him up to his back and ran on. He leaped up in the air and threw Luke down, head first. Luke yelped out from the pain as Charizard came back down, roaring out.
Glaceon looked at Luke, then back at the Houndour. "Motherfu-!" he barely noticed that the enemy bit him, not sure what to do next. The Houndour dash toward Luke and bit his body, throwing him up.
Charizard looked up and Fire Blasted up on Luke, launching up more.
Glaceon looked over at his friend being blasted up, then looked at the Houndour. He dashed up toward him and blasted him again, not freezing him this time. He Quick Attacked right after.
The Charizard sped up and caught Luke from behind and turned down, twisting in a screw. He came down faster and faster until landing the ground, a cloud of dust surrounding them.
Glaceon turned around at the scene, waiting until the dust faded away. All he saw was the large dragon, turning around and glaring at Glaceon.
"Luke!" Glaceon yelled out. He waited for a respond, but did not hear back. "Luke!"
The Charizard dashed quickly toward Glaceon. Oh, shit. Glaceon ran off, slightly slow compared to the Charizard. The large dragon reached to him and blasted out, large pits of fire coming out of his maw. Glaceon dashed sharply to his left, barely evading the large attack. He quickly looked at the dragon and leaped up, attempting to attack at the dragon, but only reached to his belly and bounced off from it.
"Motherfuck—Luke!" Glaceon yelled out again, looking over at the body lying down. No answer. The dragon roared out and charged at Glaceon. Glaceon barely noticed and leaped out of the way. "Shit!" He looked over to the Houndour and beamed him again, freezing him up. He looked back at the dragon, flying forward and around. He ran toward the icicle and stood firmly in front of it.
The dragon was still running in his direction, glaring his eyes into his. Luke… Glaceon thought …the fuck is wrong with you…? The dragon raced up faster and opened up his maw, blasting out his fire once again. Glaceon leaped out of the way, revealing the icicle he was in front of.
The icicle broke, freeing up Houndour, only to have him yelp out excessively from the attack. The dragon slowed down at came to a stop. He walked near to his partner, checking how he was. He looked over to the Ice Pokémon, glaring at him, wondering how a type inferior to his could ever go this far.
He picked up the Houndour and flew off. Glaceon looked over to Luke, still lying down. "Luke!"
Glaceon sprinted to the body, slowing down as he reached close to him. "Luke, can you hear me?" He poked the body. No reaction. "Luke!" He looked around, nobody still around. He rubbed his watering eye.
"Luke, wake up, man, c'mon! Luke!" Another poke and a shove. Rubbed more of his eyes.
"Luke!" Nothing.
"LUKE!"
