Riko stood, her legs shaking. Being a younger legendary, she wasn't
as strong as the original hero of Galar, but she wouldn't let a
dragon strike her down. "It ends now, we have your stupid
plate. Face it, you're never going to get your plates to Kyurem!"
Xaiver laughed. "You speak with such confidence..yet you do not
understand. Where I may fail, where Verity might fail, Kyrem always
sucseeds. He will create a perfect world, no matter what. And those
plates you have? Kyrem will take them as well."
A Pidgeot noticed and called out to Tidal with a warning. The Lugia
darted out of the way with a cry of horror, feeling her hair stand
on end as the bolt narrowly missed her. She nodded at the bird
pOkemon and quickly sent them away, afraid that the Zekrom would
hurt them. Turning, she concentrated and created a giant wave in
the mouth of the tunnel by using Surf from a distance and directing
it straight at Xavier.
She felt a twinge of satisfaction as she saw the Zekrom pummel by
the waves. She continued to spin about in the air, much more
comfortable now that she had the advantage of flight.
"Sacred sword!" She slashed her blade down on the Zekrom, hoping to
give him a wound to think about. The pain in her spine was fading.
She was all rage now, growling, baring her inhumanly sharp teeth
It worrieded the Lugia a bit, seeing Riko's rampage, but she
understood, and almost wished to join her. But she could control
her rage; it was just fear, and even that was nullified for the
most part when she was in the sky.
Tidal quickly used Psychic on a boulder, dropping it in the path of
Xavier's attack. On a sudden impulse, she began to repeat the
action, hurling four more rocks consecutively at him.
Riko jumped back, watching Xavier get pummeled by rocks. She
smirked, just a bit. It was then a wave of dragon breath crashed
into her. She fell to the ground, watching static course through
her body. Paralyzed.
