It took hours to finally bring them down.
Now, VOID stood over them both.
“You two were never meant to exist,” he said coldly. “Just accept your fate, Arceus’s Failed Creations.”
In his hand, something began to form.
It barely even looked real.
It was like he was holding nonexistence itself.
“Die.”
He hurled it toward Red.
And suddenly, time seemed to slow.
Blue’s body moved before thought could catch up. They forced themselves upright, sprinted forward, grabbed Red by the scruff of their mouth, and threw them clear of the attack’s path.
For the first time in their life… Red couldn’t tell what Blue was thinking.
The last thing they ever saw of Blue was their tearful smile.
And one last thought.
“Live. Please.”
And then
They were gone.
