"Nnngh... nightmare..." "Oh, he's responding," Zinc said. "Silver...? Can you hear us?" "Not... a nightmare... not scared of... going to make you have a..." "Aw, he's fighting back." Zinc giggled. "That's kind of cute." Silver was pressed against the window, though actually pushing him out...

Maple, meanwhile, looked less receptive. "I don't exactly think my caution about allowing Dark Matter to approach the Tree of Life are unfounded. I don't need my past with Telum to tell me that." She looked them over. "That was what the talk was about? How you're going to approach the Tree?"...

Cola's red circles for eyes were shaped into a furrowed brow, irritably looking through a book. "This is boring," he said. "Why do I have to keep reading if Pop isn't even dead?" "Well, he's still incapacitated, and we aren't really sure if it's safe to do anything yet, you see..." Giratina...

Owen nodded, though he didn't talk back. He knew very well, and he also knew that the Shadow was only trying to help. It was relatable, in a way, since he, too, had a Shadow that was more benevolent than not. But he was familiar with this kind of corrosive darkness. "Good luck," Owen said, then...

"Um, right!" She quickly went to the opposite end of the room and pressed a button. The wall slid open, revealing what seemed to be a tunnel of mirrors that brought in the light from the outside into the underground floor--either that or it was simulated light somehow. "We could also, well...

"I see..." Maple regarded the incoming trio, cautious. It was clear that she already suspected that Diyem was asking something odd of them all if he had to pull them aside, though she'd intended to interrogate a few of them later anyway. Perhaps one of the easier of Team Spectrum to get...

"We did," replied Zinc, nodding. "We followed a lot of Bahamut's instructions, actually. It seemed to improve his condition tremendously, or at least accelerated his growth. We--" "Mmmnn..." Silver, perhaps for the first time, made a sound in his sleep. Even during the fight with Joule, he...

Maple turned her head first, nodding. "Oh, hello. Yes, I was told that we'd be seeing you... But the others aren't here yet. Maybe later. I think Truffle and Millijoule were off shopping for more materials for Leg." "It's good to see you," Joule added, and his tone suggested he was trying to...

"His energy levels had actually gone up by the time he was back," someone said from the entryway. Zinc stepped into the room and nodded at Nate as a greeting. "Though, I was really worried about the plan. I have no idea what Silver is supposed to be, but..." The Goodra frowned. "It feels like...

"I will," Owen said, nodding. "You aren't the only one who has to deal with creeping madness!" He laughed again, the wraith-like shape of his mouth expanding a little too much. "Er, I mean..." He settled down. "Well. I had an episode, but now I know what it feels like. I wasn't expecting it...

"If you're ever feeling afraid, how about having a big, strong dragon by your side?" Owen asked, drifting a little closer to Cynthian with a smile. "Don't push your luck," Cal said. "Nobody thinks you're a true Dragon." "Egg group," Owen replied automatically. "Yeah, just like Arbok." Cal...

As it turned out, Maple and Joule had relocated to the Isle of Light with Groudon accompanying them. And while the Legend of land and droughts was only off to the side, lounging in what might have been a deep afternoon nap, Maple and Joule were sitting at the top of one of the sandy hills...

"...Then it's settled," Diyem said with a sigh. "You will have to approach Maple and break the news to her. I'm sure you can contact her to get an idea of where she is... Likely with Joule." He then looked at the others and, rolling his eyes, said, "My power is weak. Do not show too much of an...

"You will not be doing it alone," Diyem said. "There are some that are with me now that I feel could be appropriate, but because they are currently... within my realm, that is not as possible. Their Shadowy presence may set Maple off, combined with the other news we would be giving her. I know...

Diyem sighed. "It sounds like the current plan is to... ngh... tell Maple with someone who has a good relationship with her, possibly with Joule in their presence, and likely also Arceus and Truffle. It will be an extremely delicate operation. We should only have our most stable members doing...

"What is more likely to save Cibus--hello, a world is in danger and it needs your help, or hello, please go to this world where my lover is currently ransacking the place?! Do you have any idea how much baggage and gossip they'd get distracted by?!" "I do kinda want to know what she was like...

"That's my concern," said Diyem. "It's entirely possible. And perhaps seeing Xerneas will help confirm that, one way or another..." "The Worldcore's power is not one that I can make use of in the same way that I can of the Tree. It can bend the rules of the world for the border between humans...

Diyem looked like he was going to say something, but then paused. He went over what he'd said in his head. Then, he sighed, looking down. "I misspoke."

Of course. I am sure the others will be happy to see you in bodily form again, rather than as a statue. But before Icetales could question just what Diyem meant, a bolt of black lightning struck him where he stood, followed by a brief outpouring of light. And then, he was gone. <><><>

Diyem grumbled to himself, figuring that the team would eventually get thrown off by the slow and steady arrivals of the dead. Honestly, he thought they were going to be mature about it. He told them they were fine. This was far better than the usual finality of death. Yes, the Voidlands wasn't...
