Song: "South Province (Riding)" [Pokémon: Scarlet & Violet] - Gamefreak  

Immediately at those words, Miraidon froze for a split second as he diverted his gaze from Arven and stared at Sara, almost like he was looking deeply into her soul through infrared eyes.

"Miraidon, please don't do this..." Sara begged, her voice sounding like two people were speaking to him from inside her body.

"You know she didn't ask you to hurt her own son..."

"Snap out of it! I know you don't have it in you to do this! It would leave a bad taste in your mouth forever!! You know this isn't you, Miraidon! Please return to your senses!"

In sync to those words, a scarlet aura started to visibly appear and outline Sara's body, making Celebi aware of what's going on with her.

"Sara - " Celebi began, but was suddenly interrupted by the sound of the elevator opening, before Nemona, Scarlet, and Penny were seen tumbling out of it a little, as Koraidon was there.

"I swear, Koraidon's too fat for this thing..." Penny began as she untangled herself from Nemona, after Scarlet had already freed herself.

As soon as Koraidon noticed what was happening, while waiting on Scarlet, he immediately ran and transformed into his battle form, knocking Miraidon away from Sara and Arven, as Scarlet was caught off guard and wondering for a moment why is he suddenly behaving like that until she and Penny noticed why.

"Ah, Arven! I knew it! I knew something was gonna happen!" Penny says as she quickly hurries over to him and checks him over for any signs of life.

"You hurt him!" Koraidon angrily cries out at Miraidon in his language.

"I-Is he - ?" Nemona shakily asked, as fear overtook hers and Scarlet's faces.

"No, thank goodness..." She answered as she looked at them.

Relieved, Scarlet glanced over at Sara, seeing she was okay too, and wasn't injured or knocked unconscious.

She was perfectly fine and just...standing there.

"Wait...Something's off with Sara." Scarlet mentions as she adjusted her glasses. "She's standing way too still. Almost like she's in a trance."

"What do you mean?" Nemona asks, while she and Penny share a bewildered look.

"It's not - " Scarlet began to speak, but was cut off by a draft from a charged attack Miraidon had launched at, striking and knocking Koraidon to his side from the blast, as he apparently got up from where he crashed into.

Looking over from his shoulder, as he got in front of his friends, Koraidon gestured at Scarlet, giving her and her friends the indication to hurry over to the elevator while he deals with Miraidon.

"Sara, we have to go! It's starting to get too dangerous!!" Scarlet shouts as she tries to snap her friend out of it, after nodding at Koraidon in return, while Nemona and Penny took Arven with them as they began sprinting for the elevator door.

Oddly, Sara still wasn't moving when Scarlet shook her slightly as her friends were making a run for it with Arven, which almost made her look like a huge idiot just by standing around.

Unfortunately one of Miraidon's attacks crashed into the elevator, right in front of them, when they were only steps away from reaching it.

"Aw, dang it! Abort! Abort!"

The only option for them now was to head to the time machine, but not with the state Miraidon's still in.

Without warning, Sara broke herself away from Scarlet's grasp and bolted towards the two legendaries, while the other two witnessed Sara's reaction as she and Celebi got in between Miraidon and Koraidon, yelling in front of him again to stop the fight.
