Chapter 74 is here! A.k.a. the final bit of leadup to the climax of the story, featuring a lot of callbacks to the early chapters. The Final Stretch – Chapter 74: Unraveling They’d been assigned the west side of the region, and despite everything that had happened since yesterday, no plans...

Everything was silent except for the clock ticking on the wall. Nothing had happened that day; rather than try to act as a watchdog Spirit just lay beside May on the bed, still awake but with her head laid flat on the mattress. "Jade said she was chosen for what she did," Spirit murmured...

May exhaled, unclenching her fists. "Yeah. Us too." Spirit bowed again. "Thank you for telling us of your world," she said. "I hope we will meet again." May raised a hand quickly. "See you around." She hastened her step back down the mountain, Spirit following absent-mindedly by her side...

Nine's reaction was immediate. May took an instinctive step back as sparks flew off him, her mouth dry. "Look, I don't know. We're a bit busy with the saving the world thing at the moment." "After they recover their full power, I'm sure the legendary Pokémon will do something," Spirit said...

"Your choice," Spirit murmured. Other experiments. May took a sharp breath. "Well, in our world Mewtwo was created, what, twenty-seven years ago? I think at first he was creating other clones or something, and then freed them, and since then he's just been wandering the world. But now...

Just casually friends with Mew's chosen. Jade's world's Mew was apparently more 'in-sync' with its chosen one. Hard to imagine their Mew being in sync with anyone, the way Chaletwo described it. "Well, when you catch legendaries unwillingly, you're not exactly going to ask them for a favor...

May raised her eyebrows. "I guess the legendaries in both our worlds kind of suck, huh." Spirit's head snapped around. "The legendary Pokémon protect the world!" she said firmly. "They're important for all of us. Lugia saved her life!" May took a deep breath. "I'm just saying they're...

"Well... Chaletwo doesn't really help much. He mostly sits in a ball and tries to tell everyone what to do. Insists he can't be seen and he needs to conserve his power for emergencies and whatnot. Wish we did have a legendary to help with the actual fighting." She paused. "He kept insisting for...

May grimaced. "Yeah, Mark's been trying the diplomacy thing but most of the legendaries aren't having it." So Lugia did work with her in battle. That was something. "We've caught several, yeah," she went on, sighing. "And there were several other trainers recruited before us who are still...

"So it's Team Rocket that's out there trying to capture legendaries? And Lugia's having you try to stop them?" Jeez. Wasn't Team Rocket some sort of actual criminal gang? And in Jade's world they had the resources to capture legendaries and experiment on them...? "So it's just you and your team...

Conflict between humans and... May shook her head. "Okay, no, we're talking about different things." Different war. Different chosen. Just... coincidentally both involved chosen ones. So Jade was chosen by a legendary... to stop a war. More like Mark than like Spirit. This was weird. She looked...

May blinked. "Wait, you have the War of the Legends too?" What. Another world, another Destroyer, another War? Only the beasts' Chosen were all humans? She pinched the bridge of her nose. "Hang on, how does that work? Do the humans get powers? Just, like psychics or something?" Spirit's eyes...

May blinked. What? "A... half-legend?" Well, she supposed with Rainteicune apparently being a thing, there was no reason they couldn't also fuse a legendary with a mundane Pokémon, but... why, though. Did explain the feathers, at least. "Your world's Team Rocket created hybrids of legendaries...

"Yeah, they tend not to." May sighed, rubbing her forehead. Xavian's casual partnership with Hoopa almost made it seem normal. No big deal. Just a legendary buddying up with a human, for some reason, no ulterior motive. "Sense anything?" Spirit said, ears perking. "You can sense legendaries?"...

They were looking for legendaries. How ironic. "Over in my universe you definitely wouldn't get legendaries just showing up for a party like this," May muttered. "I guess the ones here are just a whole lot friendlier." "Any place on the island might contain clues," Spirit said firmly. "We...

What did you do after a night of maybe dozing off a few times before waking with a start again? At some point Spirit had fallen asleep, at least, only to wake with a start when May shifted. They ate breakfast alone at the café and then headed out, bleary, somewhere away. Somewhere they hadn't...

Spirit had no plans to sleep. She'd sat herself at the foot of the bed, looking around, ears perked, insisting May didn't have to worry about anything and she'd deal with any danger. May wasn't sure how to feel about any of that. Xavian's evening announcement had said they couldn't return to...

Chapter 73 is here, finally. Chapters 75 and 76 ought to go up simultaneously, so although chapter 74 art is probably getting finished today I'll probably try to post that one when I finish the chapter 75 art? Something like that. The Final Stretch – Chapter 73: Recuperation Mark...

"I know Mean Look," Spirit said immediately, perking up - in Pokémon speech, though, thankfully. "I will be able to stop them from getting away." "Yeah, if we found them in the first place." May peered back at Officer Jenny. Something was still off about her. That spiky-haired trainer was...
