[S0urdough > Pop]: Everyone is safe except Eternatus, which is why I need to see you in person. Only you. He was still keeping his ESP peeled, along with looking for any subtle changes in the room's light to suggest he had a stalker.

At least this time Bahamut was upright when he got yoinked across the world. So, there was no faceplanting to be had when he showed up in Destiny Tower's hall. Though the colors still oscillated in his eyes like static waves on an electronic screen. Maybe Maple had hit him harder than he...

Bahamut frowned. The longer he stayed with everyone, the worse the chances were of someone sensing the energy Eien had given him. And that wasn't going to work. Not now. Besides, no one in the group would care if he went off on his own. He just had to concent— why was a goopy tendril producing...

Bahamut had crashed down beside Diyem after going through the portal. “Do I have to carry Ms. Stupor?” He pointed a dim wing at Maple.

Bahamut threw both sets of wings up. Reaching toward that energy, he immediately threw a portal open, thinking of Diyem and Maple "Restrain Mewtwo, now!" he roared. "Or get a portal to Destiny Village's jail... or the Reverse World," the shade added, poking its goopy head out of the bag and...

"Owen." Bahamut looked to the charizard. "What if you trapped me inside Protect shields with Mewtwo? Or both of us? I still have my shields from the Beacon. I can create more." He was concentrating on the energy Eien had passed him. Maybe if he grasped it...

"Very well." Bahamut looked at Owen. "Eternatus' soul is blighted by Mewtwo. I think she has a more... advanced version of the block we found on you. One that's already active. If we're going to free her, we have to convince this thing to let her go." He didn't gesture to Mewtwo, because it...

"Well, that's the thing," Bahamut said. "If this mewtwo was under Giovanni's command until recently, it could be one from a world where he succeeded in his ambitions. So, it's never gotten a chance to experience things for itself. It might not have any happy memories or other things to cling to...

"I'm aware of what Kanto is." Bahamut's head tendrils drooped. "I leveled my Viridian City when I disposed of my mewtwo and Giovanni. Eternatus dealt with the rest of Earth not long after. I don't remember the exact details. There was some sort of laser weapon that fired a beam into space...

"Her soul has been hexed by Mewtwo. Much like Owen's mental block. Only hers is activated." Bahamut glanced at his wings. "The best chance to do anything beyond leaving her here lies with getting to Mewtwo. There's... a soul inside there. It's deep. But perhaps if I drain some of Mewtwo's...

"What the hell is going on in there? I sensed an energy spike out in the tree and I know it wasn't me or Owen. If things aren't going well, you all need to bail and leave Maple to Dark Matter."

The snap back to his own body was fast. Eerily fast. And Bahamut didn't need any time to collect himself. Strange. He looked down at Eien again. "A different promise, then. In exchange for delivering these... if the others can somehow rescue you, you will retire from your current 'occupation.' I...

Bahamut looked at the silhouettes. His expression somehow seemed to grow even emptier. Two canines. One wielding a blade. One shrouded in a crest. A man with white hair, decked in white armor, yelling. The canines lunging toward a ball of fire. "... pew?" "Chiron! Io!" Flames erupting in a...

Of course this was what he was looking at. Forget rubbing salt in his wounds. This planet was trying to pump Bahamut full of ocean water and see if he'd pop like some ethereal balloon. Bahamut stared at her. Or was he looking past her? Either way, his affect was as flat as Brisa's crush on...

The ball was practically absorbed into Bahamut's body. In reality his light concealed it. It may as well have been floating in a miasma. Bahamut looked between Eternatus and Mewtwo, then Mewtwo and Owen. It looked so... empty. Perhaps he understood that emptiness, but he couldn't divide his...

Bahamut froze upon seeing her. She looked so weak. Helpless. I could kill her. Even if his aura was tuned to defenses. If he battered her with Shining Blades until the radiance was overwhelming... the explosion could take them both out. Finally. He'd finally be free. He-- That's not like you...

"Then I guess... I will go investigate. The only question is whether you're coming with me or not, Owen." This was stupid. After all the (ignored) statements to the team, Bahamut was going to drop everything and for what? For a chance at saving an analogue to the thing that had taken everything...

"If we're going to engage her directly, we need to draw her closer to the back of the tree with us." Bahamut looked toward where Diyem had moved. "If you want to make your presence known from where you are, that might be safer than moving deeper." He knew that Diyem was focused more on Maple...
