Thunder And Flames (N x Reader)

Truth Route [13]

"I sense Zekrom's presence at Dragonspiral Tower," Reshiram tells you. "That must be where the King is,"

You're holding on tight to her fur, for fear of falling off, while N-Zoroark's resting his head on your back.

"Whatcha doing?" you ask him.

He responds with a sigh.

"Okay." You reach over your shoulder and pat his head.

"Worry not, little Zoroark," Reshiram says, looking back. "I'm sure your trainer is fine." She spreads her wings and parts the clouds to reveal Dragonspiral Tower on the horizon..

You land and jump off Reshiram's back to see a horrifying sight before you.

N is collapsed on the ground, scrapes and bruises covering his face and arms. Ghetsis is looming over him, yelling and kicking him, demanding some sort of information.

Zoroark transforms back into himself and runs up to them, scratching Ghetsis's arm practically to ribbons.

You follow after him, crouching down to N to make sure he's okay.

He certainly doesn't look okay. He's breathing heavily and tears are streaming down his face.

He notices you through his tears and weakly reaches up to rest a hand on your cheek. "Y/N...you...came."

"Of course I came, you think I'd leave you?" You help him to slowly sit up. "I brought Reshiram, let's get out of here."

His eyes widen. "No! Colress has him!"

You turn around and see Colress standing near the edge of the tower, the Dark Stone in his hands.

"It appears you're too late, Y/N," he says with a smirk. "We've already got exactly what we need."

Ghetsis pushes Zoroark away and shakes off his blood-covered arm. "That's right. We've won."

N clenches his fists and stands up. "No you haven't! I'll fight you as long as I can to get Zekrom back!"

Reshiram roars and spreads her wings.

Colress' glasses glint dangerously. "Is that how you feel, Reshiram?" He turns to you and N. "These dragons hold much more strength than you two are led to believe. Even the old legends don't do them justice."

N glares at him, and the look alone has the power to stab somebody.

Colress looks down at the Dark Stone in his hands. "What kind of power do you think Zekrom would have if it didn't have to hold back? If it could use its pure, raw strength?"

Reshiram snarls. "Stop whatever you're planning, foolish human. One should not tamper with the balance we have."

Colress shakes his head, not listening at all. "Lord Ghetsis, you wish to rule the world? You wish to take it in your hands and do as you please?" His eyes narrow through his glasses, and his grip on the Dark Stone tightens. "You'll be able to do just that, if you can get through this!"

He raises the Dark Stone into the air, and smashes it against the ground.

"No!" you and N scream in unison.

The Dark Stone shatters into a million uneven pieces, and begins to glow an unsettling blue.

Reshiram lets out a small howl, then blocks you, N and Zoroark with her wings just as a massive bolt of blue lightning strikes the tower.

"Zekrom..." Reshiram whispers. "There's no stopping him now..."

Zekrom has awakened, but his eyes are bright with rage as he lets out a roar that shakes the tower.
