ZZT KYUREM JUST UH. ZZT

The camera clears as Valtr steadies himself midair, and lays the scene out. Ebrietas holding herself tall, prepared to face the full force of whatever ice based power kyurem would level against her, a budding hyperbeam held in her mouth, Draka flung back and leaning against the colis of Ebrietas's body, Ghetsis standing in front of Kyurem, arms spread, an unhinged smile painted across his face, looking completely unraveled, Cari standing between Draka and Ghetsis, prepared to lunge for his throat, Kyurem reared up and mouth open, ice crackling over the floor of the cavern and over Kyurem's face and up Ghetsis's legs.

Everything progresses quickly, chaos reigning. Ebrietas fires her hyperbeam at Ghetsis, Cari narrowly avoids it by dodge rolling to the side, Kyurem hurls some kind of hyper-charged Ice Beam at Draka, Ebrietas wraps herself around Draka and faints almost immediately. Ghetsis is flung away by the hyperbeam, slamming into the wall with an unpleasant sort of crack, and Kyurem rumbles threateningly and drags one foot from the ice to step toward the crumpled form of Ebrietas while Draka struggles to extricate herself from the fainted pokemon.

Cari lunges back into place, between Kyurem and the indisposed pokemon and trainer, her lips peeling back off her teeth- too far off her teeth, opening disturbingly back across her cheeks like her mouth has been stretched all the way around her face- and she snarls at the ice dragon like she's a rabid houndoom with houndour to care for, and it... brings Kyurem up short.

The dragon stoops down to be face-to-face with her, turning its head to the side to stare at her directly with one eye.
