Luke physically flinched at Jazz’s words. Just wonderful yeah… Teeth grit, and lips pulled into a grimace. As Jazz went on to blame the League again, however, Luke clasped his shirt in one hand. “Please stop,” he stated flatly, sternly. “I already heard you the first couple of times, but swearing at the league right now isn’t doing any good. I like working for them.” Luke bit his lip. The hairs on the back of his neck were standing on end again before he turned and muttered something under his breath. “C’mon Spidey,” he spoke a little louder before starting on again.
The next couple of streets were clear, and Luke found himself moving a bit faster than before. Hi schest was tight, but the butterflies in his stomach gave him a viable reason for it. Whatever they were coming up against was probably stronger than any of the ones they’d faced and—
….
…. What was…. what was that sound? Luke stopped short of passing up another street, his head turning and his eyes flashing around. Oh my GOD… One golden eye widened, and a sound inhuman in nature broke from Luke’s lips as a giant mess of Nincada, Ninjask, and Shedinja seemed to be buzzing right towards them.
“S-Spidey!” Luke gasped. The Swadloon had already moved, however, whipping up a huge Protect barrier that all the Bugs seemed to hit at once. Luke gulped even as the Swadloon hopped down from his shoulder and prepared for battle yet again. There are so many of them… Maybe like two more than the last two hordes, but this … this was the substance of nightmares. “J-Jazz… get ready…” he called fishing out another Pokeball again. The Salandit from earlier burst forth as well as the Bounsweet, each becoming aware of what they were now forced to deal with.
Right after that, the Swadloon removed the barrier, and the Bugs came flying forward again. Fire spewed forth form the Salandit right in time with a well placed Rapid Spin from the Bounsweet. The Ninjask that was proverbially and literally kicked into the flames was singed to a crisp and fainted immediately. Two more Ninjask roared in frustration coming forward. Spidey the Swadloon rather quickly whipped up a Protect again to shield whatever incoming attacks sthere were while Widow the Salandit and Wonder the Bounsweet went with more rapid hitting moves followed by Fire. The third would not be so easily toyed with, however, and used his speed to avoid the Flail of the Bounsweet and the fire of the Salandit. Going after the thing that looked easiest to hit, he swiped a Slash at the Swadloon who took it hard and cried out.
A sharp noise broke from Luke. “Get it, you guys!” he called before running over to fish up Spidey. The Swadloon whined softly, and Luke found himself gripping to the Pokemon a bit tighter than he normally would have. The Salandit and Bounsweet, meanwhile, were still trying to fend off this Ninjask in particular, and it would take some well placed timing in order to final fell that one in particular.
It wasn’t over, though. Three Ninjask had been felled, but two Shedinja were still very much conscious and ready to go. Unfortunately for them, however, the Salandit was more than effective against such enemies. Opening her maw and spewing flames at one of them, she caused it to ignite and burst fire right on the other. With such unique properties as these, the two Shedinja fainted immediately from that hit. "Ugh you guys ok?" Luke called to both the Bounsweet and the Salandit. They seemed ... worn but strong still at least.

Though Jazz didn't see the flinch initially, he certainly stopped when his shirt was grabbed. As amped up on adrenaline as he was, instinct told him to punch whoever or whatever had grabbed him. Fists clenched, but he forced himself to stop when he heard Luke's voice. Breathing out a shaky breath, Jazz closed his eyes briefly before looking over at Luke again. The tone of Luke's voice didn't leave room for protest of any sort and Jazz found himself raising his hands in surrender. "Alright, fine. I won't say anything," Jazz replied, knowing better than to say anything else... even if he was still pissed at the League for getting them into this mess in the first place. Leia was once again coming around and healing everyone, just to be on the safe side. No friends of hers were going to hurt! Jazz was very grateful to the Comfey, she was certainly sweet and made the day just a little better. Of course, there was the fact that Jazz was spending the day with Luke but that was mostly overshadowed by the psycho Pokemon they kept coming across. Speaking of psycho...it seemed there was another horde coming their way. This time with bugs. Fuck it. Fuck the League and their non-existent backup. "Leia, Helping Hand! Titan, Heavy Slam those Nincada!"Jazz called out, not taking any chances this time. The Comfey cheered on Titan who surged forward with renewed vigor. The Nincada was taken off guard and instantly fainted while his friend shot a mud slap at the Lairon. That...hurt a little more than Titan let on but charged at the other Nincada with another Heavy Slam and fainted that one as well. With so many things happening at once, Jazz didn't notice the Shedinja use Phantom Force until he was suddenly on the ground after being hit from behind. Arceus, fucking HELL. What the fuck was with these Pokemon attacking him. He'd even made sure to stay the fuck away this time. A pokeball burst open as a result of the fall, revealing a Litwick that all at once looked very concerned to see his trainer in so much pain. It didn't take long to find the culprit and unleash a torrent of flames with Flame Burst followed immediately by Inferno to make damn sure the foul creature was dead. The Shedinja stood little chance against the super effective flames and burned to a crisp, fainting thereafter. "Shit, thanks Luca,"Jazz groaned, trying to get up after that last hit. Titan was furious that one of the bugs had managed to get past him and summoned up a Rock Slide, trapping the last Ninjask underneath it. Hmph that should show it to mess with his trainer. Leia too was concerned and showered Jazz and the other Pokemon with Floral Healing. It...had to help, right? She hoped it would help. Jazz grinned (which looked like more of a grimace) at Leia, trying to reassure her that he was alright after all. He was sore all over and felt like he'd been hit by a truck, but hey, he was standing at least. The Comfey didn't look the slightest bit convinced and instead settled around Jazz's neck. She would stay here, just in case. Jazz had been about to curse the League out again when he looked over at Luke. Right. Returning the Litwick, Jazz looked around to make sure nothing else had fallen out. "C'mon, let's get this over with,"Jazz said wearily, gesturing towards where the bug swarm had come from. This had to be the end of the road, right? Arceus, it better be. With Kovu's help, he was at least walking towards the chaos. Heh, maybe this wasn't such a good idea... but like hell he was gonna leave Luke by himself. Words: 648 | Notes: Titan gains 3 points; Luca gains 1 point Tags: Luke Indigo

Rounding the next corner would bring a wide view of an empty street, eerily quiet for Sinclair this time of day. Distant city noises would resound from around and behind, but straight ahead, there was only stillness. A single alleyway showed signs of distress, bits of building dented in and a dumpster overturned. The best bet for certain.
Upon nearing it, faint noises would be heard. A metallic din-- ting..... ting, ting.... tingt-t-tingting.. ting... -- rang with no sense of time, and strange unindentifiable noises like some mix of sloshing and gurgling and chirping thrown in a blender oscillated occasionally, faintly.
Nothing immediately visible in the alley, but it was quite dark, aside from one dimly flickering light on the far end.
A brief flash of movement, like something sliding, then nothing. More strange noises followed.
Another shift, this time a more discernible movement, like the contents of a bag shifting just enough to cause its contents to fall, but they fell straight into another obscured area.
A moment passed.
Another.
An unholy screech broke the air, and some monstrous hybrid of flesh and molten glass came zooming straight toward Luke, tentacles out stretched and clawing at the air before it, reaching, trying to grab.

Luke was getting tired. Even with his Pokemon doing the brunt of the work, this was all becoming too nerve wracking to deal with. Between that and Jazz constantly getting full on attack and just ugggghhhh. Some vague part of him wished that he’d just stayed behind. They couldn’t go back now, though, not yet. At least now, though, the Pokemon were becoming sparse. Sure, a couple ran passed, but they weren’t in an angry, terrified horde with mob mentality ruling them all. As they came to an empty street, however, Luke stopped.
The eerie quiet was bone chilling, and Luke involuntarily shivered in response. A golden eye flicked to Jazz before looking forward again. The dumpster was the best bet they had, but he was still… shaky on approaching it. The noise had his heart climbing up in his ears, but he proceeded. The flash of movement would have his head jerking slightly, and he blinked several times about to ask if he’d seen that when another round of movement caught his gaze. Luke gulped. How could whatever this thing be afford to be so scary?
OH SHIT IT GOT SCARIER. A shriek broke from Luke as the glassy, gushing, goober came right at him. Spidey, on his shoulder, let out an ear splitting scream right back and spit a Sticky Web at the monster trying desperately to catch or slow it before it got to Luke. Already, however, his trainer had gone tripping back and collapsed on the ground of his own accord. The back of his head hit something sharp, and for a moment the world spun around Luke.

As they rounded the corner, Jazz was glad to see that there weren't anymore rampaging Pokemon. That was the good news. The bad news was that...well, it was creepy how quiet it was. This isn't good... It was the perfect setting for an ambush and Jazz didn't like it one bit. He'd since given up on the backup that the League had "promised" them. If they could get out of this alive, then that would be good. "Stay sharp, Kovu," Jazz cautioned, knowing that the Luxray's eyes would be the only way they would be able to stand a chance in the dim light. What happened next set Jazz's nerves on edge as he stood fully, ready to fight if need be. Whatever this thing was, it sounded a heck of a lot worse than what they'd faced before. Kovu meanwhile scanned the area, growling when he saw... something. Before Jazz could see what had set the Luxray off, suddenly there was an ear-splitting screech and something was heading towards Luke. Without wasting a second, Jazz lunged towards the thing. This thing wasn't about to get Luke, not on his watch. Arceus, this was bad. What the hell was this monster? Well, the sticky web might've trapped it but he wasn't about to take any chances. Jazz could hear Luke fall but at least he wasn't in the clutches of the monster. "Leia, go to Luke, I'll be fine," Jazz said, standing his ground even when the Comfey made a cry of protest. She would get no answer from Jazz however, and would slowly uncurl from around her trainer's neck to hover around Luke. Were they alright? Well, Floral Healing would help, right? Maybe? In the face of this monster, Titan started to glow, evolving into Aggron right before Jazz's eyes. A wicked smirk appeared on Jazz's features at that. Hell yeah. Maybe they would stand a chance against this thing now. "Titan, Rock Slide. Build a wall,"Jazz commanded, gritting his teeth as he watched the thing. It looked like a creepy jellyfish, but one thing was for sure, he was going to make that thing stay as far away from Luke as possible. Titan seemed reluctant to listen but used Rock Slide regardless, building a wall between the Nihilego and them. Who knew how long that would last. They couldn't just leave this thing here though. Fuck. What the hell were the going to do?

The web entangled itself in the creature, and the thick, sticky texture so alarmed and disoriented the beast that it began wailing and crying out as if pained. It flailed erratically in an effort to dislodge the gunk from between its tentacles, but with every effort the web only seemed to entangle itself and spread, distressing the creature all the more.
It did not seem to notice or react to the wall at first, but as the wall grew higher, the standing Jazz would have just enough time to see the creature finally stop and emit a thick acidic substance that began melting away the webbing little by little.
Once it was free, its attention turned back to the entry way of the alley, or more specifically, toward the beacon of energy before it. It rammed straight into the wall before realizing it was there, then slapping its tentacles across the wall several times, each ringing out with a hard clinging sound. At last, it grew tired, reared back, and plowed in with a Head Smash, sending a lot of the rocks flying Jazz and Luke's direction and collapsing what remained of the wall... but also making the creature recoil and briefly disorienting it from the effort.

The weird burst of Flowery scents would slowly do…something for Luke. The world was starting to recenter itself, and instead of being dizzy, he became aware of the sharp pain in the back of his head— “O-ow-“ He winced as the beast started to— … Wait was that the… Luke’s eye flicked open, and he sat up a little too fast. Ow, oh ow— wow wait that was the Nihilego? Luke blinked a little too hard as he stared at the creature in the webbing— at least up until its image was buried behind a series of rocks.
“That’s a— that’s a Nihilego,” Luke exhailed. He’d… he’d never seen one in person, but… but he’d seen some pictures before in Alola but…. and… ?? “What is it… doing here…” Luke winced again reaching back now to feel the gash to the back of his skull. The Healing had congealed it, but it was tender and painful to the touch. Ok fingers you could stop touching now, thanks. Before Luke could say much more, however, the sound of knocking on the rocks had him fidgeting.
“F—“ Luke wouldn’t finish the sound as the rocks shattered and went flying towards him and Jazz. “S-Spidey!” Luke stuttered. The Swadloon whipped up a Razor Leaf and effectively smacked the rocks sideways and away from Luke and Jazz. “Ngyh… Jazz….” Luke mumbled reaching up to rub his eye that was now stinging whether from the breaks and debris in rock or from the head impact he couldn’t tell. “We need to .. contain it.”

As soon as the wall started to form, Jazz saw what looked like acid coming from the creature's mouth. What the hell is this thing. This wasn't good, not one bit.. "Shit..." Jazz swore, looking back at Luke only after it seemed the wall was holding for now, "Ya alright there?"he asked, backing up from the wall a little to try and help Luke up. That's a Nihilego. "I' could say the same thing, 't kin use acid e'en..."Jazz murmured, swearing under his breath as it slammed into the wall. Before he knew it, rocks were coming his way as the Nihilego broke apart the wall. If it wasn't for the Razor Leaf, Jazz didn't know what might have happened. "Fuck," Jazz swore, pulling out a pokeball and sending out his Steelix, "Obsidian! Curl around us and use Stone Edge, form a barrier! Titan, use Rock Slide to make walls again. Ya think Spidey could try and use the web as cement?"he called out, looking over at Luke after the fact. If nothing else, it would slow down the Nihilego more but this was the only thing Jazz could think of in order to contain the Nihilego...or rather, keep that thing as far away from Luke as possible. Obsidian roared upon being released and immediately curled his tail protectively around his trainer and Luke. The order was curious, but the Steelix wasn't going to protest when it was pretty clear that his trainer was in danger. Forming a Stone Edge, the Steelix aimed the spikey rocks around the Nihilego. It was clumsy at best, and some of them got pretty close but hopefully it would keep them from moving. Titan too started to build walls again, using Rock Slide several times to fence it in. It hadn't worked that great the first time but... If it needed to be contained, it would have to do for now. "What the hell are we gonna do, Luke?"Jazz asked, making sure to stay behind the Steelix's tail. If more rocks came flying their way again, it would be safer that way.

As the rocks began coming down once more, Nihilego wasted no time in smashing through them regardless of the pain garnered from doing so. Nothing was worse than never getting home, and there-- there! That light had to be home.
It did not understand the rocks would still be falling, however, and soon found itself pinned under them. A Reflect was reflexively thrown up above it, but this only dampened the damage from the rest of the rocks, doing nothing to free it from its current state of being crushed. A Power Gem was errantly fired off, breaking parts of the Stone Edge barrier and continuing through to graze Obsidian's tail, but did little else.
Nihilego pulled and struggled, wailing, crying, reaching desperately toward Luke. Another Power Gem dented a building wall and blew some rocks off the top of the pile, but it could not seem to maneuver to get the ones holding it. More pained and desperate cries almost akin to sobs would follow. Never, even when it tried attacking its 'captor' the rock wall, did it entirely stop reaching for Luke.
It was 'contained', in a sense, or at least mostly immobilized, and most the defensive measures were holding for the moment. Obsidian would not be able to fit more than his tail into the narrow alley very easily, at least without damaging the buildings on each side more than Nihilego already had, so his usefulness may be limited. But even with that, the trainers seemed to have gained the upper hand.
Nihilego cried out more and more. Closer... Closer... It willed the light closer. Demanded it, begged for it, to a point Luke may well feel a faint pull...

Luke startled briefly as Jazz ordered a Stone Edge, but the word barrier had him exhaling again. Ya think Spidey could try and use the web as cement? Luke opened his mouth, but no words came out as the shrill cries of the Nihilego hit his ears. It sounded so hurt so scared much like the hordes they’d already encountered in fact. Luke… suddenly wanted to cry, but whether it was from the pain in his head or the heartbreak of the noises he didn’t know. What the hell are we gonna do, Luke? Luke stared, not at Jazz but passed the Steelix tail barrier towards where the Nihilego reached and stretched out towards him.
It’s a person too… Luke took in a sharp breath on remembering this key fact. Pokemon were not monsters. They were sentient creatures with feelings much the same as humans. And… and even if Ultra Beasts (was that what they were called? Something like that? Ugh his head hurt) weren’t Pokemon exactly they… they uh… They deserve respect. Right, right. This… this Pokemon deserved respect. Its intents deserved respect, whatever it may be..
It was only after this that Luke truly felt the pull of the Nihilego. It wanted him specifically— and … Well… Luke gulped, reaching up to rub his face slowly. Shakily, he managed to stand. The Swadloon at his side now jerked upwards and called out. “I- I’m ok, Spidey…” Ok was a subjective term, and the Swadloon did not like it one bit. A small noise of warning was given, and Luke offered a weak smile in response.
“Jazz I… I wanna get closer … maybe talk to it… can you have Obsidian move?” If Jazz refused, Luke would try his damndest to climb over the tail of his own accord and start over towards the Nihilego. A sharp sound of distress escaped from Spidey, as he quickly followed after Luke. Closing distance with the creature, however, Luke slowed. His pulse was up in his ears again, screaming that this was not a good idea. He stared for a moment watching the Nihilego struggle under the rocks reaching out towards him.
Another gulp was taken, and a hand reached out to clasp one of the outstretched tentacles.

Jazz breathed a sigh of relief when it seemed the barriers were working. The Nihilego wasn't getting any closer but... those cries made him flinch. Aside from that, the Nihilego seemed very intent on reaching towards them. Was it after Luke? Why was it still trying to fight? Didn't it know that would just hurt more? Dammit, stop it. Though Jazz might have wanted to keep the Nihilego from getting to them, he wasn't heartless and this constant crying just... hurt. At Luke's question, Jazz looked at him incredulously, "Are you fucking crazy?" he all but hissed before Luke started to climb the Steelix's tail regardless. Swearing under his breath, Jazz gestured for Obsidian to move. Even the Steelix seemed reluctant to let his trainer get closer to the pinned Nihilego but slowly uncurled from around them, waiting for his next orders. "Titan, Kovu, stay close," Jazz murmured as he followed Luke closer to the Nihilego. If the Nihilego's cries were painful, seeing it trapped under the rocks hurt worse. It... looked like it was in pain but, it had tried to attack them. Obsidian's tail had kept the attacks from reaching them but if they hadn't. Alarms rang in Jazz's head as Luke walked closer to the beast. It didn't seem as terrifying now but...but. Everything in Jazz screamed at him to pull Luke back now, to keep him safe. Fists clenched and it was very clear that Jazz was ready to fight if the Nihilego did anything but for now... for now he would trust Luke. Even after Luke grabbed one of those fucking tentacles, he....he would trust Luke.

As Nihilego made contact, Jazz would see the creature's entire composition change, practically melting. This new liquid-- thicker than liquid, plasma?-- form easily slipped out from where it had been trapped, and it wrapped around and engulfed Luke. Involuntarily, his body would convulse and outstretch, arms spread to his sides, standing on his toes, leaning back, head back. A position he shouldn't have been able to maintain on his own. The thick plasma barely resembled the creature it had once been, a hint of a star pattern occasionally forming before fading again and a tentacle occasionally lapping out before melting back into the writhing mass.
As Nihilego made contact, Luke would see everything go dark, and then everything become clear. He was seeing, yet not with his eye; suddenly, his field of vision was 360 degrees, and he saw every detail around him, yet not as he saw it in waking. Everything was math and light and color, and he could see the ways everything interconnected. A small fraction of the information that bombarded his being should have been overwhelming, yet in the moment everything would make sense.
A voice? No, a thought. His own thought, yet not his own. What do you want? it asked. What shall we become together?

Oh…. It was the thought that resounded in Luke’s mind all at once. Oh wow… The sight, the feelings, the … everything… Oh… So much detail, so much information, so much everything and nothing and—
W-… what? Wh-what did he want? What did— together?… Luke gulped (not that his body moved so much as his mind right then).
"W-what do you mean? I… I don’t know? W-what do you want? Why are you doing this? I don’t— I don’t understand?"
Somewhere in the back of his mind, Luke scrambled, desperately for some sort of prior thought, yet his mind was oddly blank.

As soon as the Nihilego started to change, Jazz knew that this had been a mistake. This beast was not to be trusted, not to be pitied. You will NOT take him from me! A sound that sounded like a cross from a feral growl and a scream left Jazz's lips as he lunged for Luke. What the hell did it matter if he was hurt in the process, what mattered now was Luke. An arm reached for Luke, aiming to seize his wrist, heedless of the goo surrounding him. What was clear was that this beast was smart. It had been waiting for Luke, biding its time. The rocks hadn't stopped it, Jazz had underestimated it once, that wouldn't happen again. It couldn't. "LET HIM GO!"Jazz shouted, trying to pull Luke out of this monster's grasp, "I'LL DO ANYTHING YOU WANT, JUST LET HIM GO!" he continued, his voice cracking a bit, raising to a higher pitch. Tears filled his eyes, blurring his vision but there was no way he was going to let this monster have Luke. Not if he had anything to say about it.

Nihilego waited, not by choice but by instinct. Its parasitic nature activated when touched, and now it needed a sense of direction. A form to take. A desire to enhance. But no desire came, only confusion and questions, so Nihilego's form remained questionable as well.
Until a new person grabbed hold of the goo it had become. There was a brief delay as actual choice did factor in briefly. Nihilego's aim was to reach the light, wasn't it? It recalled now. But it touched the light, and here it was, and whatever creature held that light was not giving it anything to work with.
I'LL DO ANYTHING YOU WANT!
Nihilego did not understand these words, but it understood their meaning. It understood desperation, passion, drive. Desire. Perhaps if it could not obtain the light directly, this being would give it a form that could.
It flowed off of Luke and on to Jazz. Luke's vision and autonomy would return, leaving him a bit weak and shaken but otherwise fine. It melded with Jazz now, and it was his vision that faded to be replaced by new sight of the world as energy and equations.
Jazz was powerless to struggle, physically immobilized and mind forced to consider the same question: What do you want? What are your deepest desires?
