"You're twisting my words, child." Bahamut's core and eyes turned a deep purple. "My thoughts on Darkwhite pertained to the battle, which is done, for better or worse. And I'm simply stating that we should keep an eye on all you shades. Darkwhite was active long before we found other ultra...

"In this world... I can hardly be considered a danger. I tuned my aura to defenses." Bahamut's eyes and core flickered pink. "My attacks are worthless. But those of you who deal devastating blows... you lack a certain killer intent." His tail flicked to his right. "A few lives or an entire...

The absol spoke the truth. Bahamut had even thought as much at first. Now there really was bad news to pass along. "So, in the end, it's now all but certain another eternatus larva will spawn from her. Or, perhaps, she will be made something even more dangerous. And on top of that, innocent...

Bahamut shook out his metal frame and checked to make sure Esper was still okay inside his satchel. The poipole had, at some point, shrunk back inside his ultra stone. "... well now, wasn't this fun?" He turned to Maple. "So, who gets to break the bad news to Palkia and Shield?"

Bahamut's large strides made it fairly easy for him to reach the guild. "Well? What's the story?"

Bahamut's immediate thought was that this was one of those textbook tricks. Which meant Owen or Maple had Sword. But he was still thinking about what happened before they left the mountain. The team was acting like Sword was saved, but that was not the case from his perspective. All that effort...

Bahamut glowered at Soda. "And do you think it's a good idea to bring her in close proximity of that other mewtwo?" He gestured at Sword. "Just because I think she's better off dead doesn't mean the rest of this lot are going to just walk her right back into danger."

Chapter 9: Dude, What a Trip! Vortex stood between two of the many cracks and splinters running through the ruined center of the courtyard. Broken fragments of the fountain lay scattered around the area which, thanks to the hasty work of some Polaris laborers, had a metal dome placed around it...

Bahamut was trying to figure out how to address this with some tact when a flurry of activity erupted around him. Sword and Shield's Cibus counterparts, then a call that got interrupted by, if he heard correctly, the other mewtwo on the planet. "It would seem... that Arceus' house arrest did not...

"Well, if it's causing all these issues for her, then remove it," Bahamut said. "None of the shades displayed any of... this nonsense. They can't even really attack."

This wasn't what Bahamut wanted. "Was there really a disruption... or is this an intentional pit stop?"

That was it? There was no attack. Just seeds of doubt being planted. But with how peppy and chipper the loudest of his teammates were, he strongly doubted Giovanni's warning would be heeded. He couldn't see any of them growing to suspect the people who had shown them hospitality. Perhaps Maple...

"Leave now!" Bahamut looked at Maple.

"And it would be far worse if he tailed us back to Destiny Village," Bahamut growled. "Just go."

"He could lob as many of those capture devices at me as he wants. It won't make a difference." Bahamut's eyes and core reddened. "If the devices work how I remember... you cannot capture someone if they've already been caught by one of those balls."

"It's certainly possible," Bahamut replied. "We got shadows and radiance by being exposed to Diyem and Maple. Eternatus' corruption could work similarly."

"You shouldn't be holding her." Bahamut managed to bite back the urge to say something more forceful. "There could be lingering corruption. It's not safe to handle her directly. Leave her to someone with levitation." He pointed to Maple, then looked at her. "Is the disruptive aura gone? If so...

“She’s still corrupted.” Bahamut’s frown deepened. “Another larva could manifest.”

"... fine." It was not fine.

Turn I don't know what number turn it is: Shadow Persuasion at Brisa, Morning Sun at Dave, Icetales, and Owen, and another Morning Sun at Dave, Nip, and Saltriv.
