islandshore | 24th - video/action for Olivine;

[When the feed starts up, it's upside-down, but there's a clear shot of a very angry Riku standing next to a large pile of exhausted Pokémon including a very large Charizard, Feraligatr, Nidoking, Scizor, Lucario, and a Rotom, which manages to float over to the Gear and slowly lift it up.

Riku, however, looks less than impressed.]

Get back up! You can't just sit there.

[The Pokémon groan and shift a little, but alas, they're just too exhausted to keep going.]

C'mon. You're going to keep fighting, you got that? I don't care how tired you are.

[There's a sad sounding vrrrrrm from Surge, who hovers over to Riku.]

See? If Surge can do it, so can--

[Aaaand then the Gear falls. Looks like even Surge didn't have the energy to keep going.]

Can't believe this...

[After a moment, he scoops up the Gear and shuts it off. Those in Olivine are free to see this unpleasant display. A little while after his defeat, Riku's going to be working his team incredibly hard, putting them up against each other.

Someone's a sore loser, to say the least.]

Recall your pokemon and get any weapon that you have. Meet me somewhere down the beach.

[You in for it boy. That's all he's saying, snapping the feed off.]

[That... doesn't sound good.

It might take a while for Riku to get there; he went to the center with Leon to heal his team, but, sure enough, he'll be out in no time with the makeshift Soul Eater Sora made for him. Oh, and Flare's with him, looking a bit grouchier than normal. Someone doesn't shove his team members into their balls.]

[Terra's out on the shore, looking contemplative with his own wooden Keyblade, though once he sees Riku and Flare, he turns towards Riku sternly.]

I said recall your pokemon. All of them.

I usually don't put them in their Pokéballs.

[But Flare grunts and steps back. He's here to keep an eye on Riku, not to fight.]

By their own choice?

[If it was their choice, he can accept that.]

[Another grunt, and a nod from Flare. Eeeyup.]

Either they like being out, or they don't care either way.

Alright.

[He raises his wooden Keyblade then.]

Come at me with everything you've got.

You're on.

[Hope you're ready, Terra! Riku might not be large and bulky, but he's still a good fighter.

He'll start by rushing at him, but he's ready to block at any time.]

[Boy, I was end game where I was taken from. He dodges easily, and any hits will be parried just as easily. However, he won't hit back.]

[Riku's stubborn. He'll keep at it, and it helps that he's pretty agile.

Not that he wants to hurt Terra; Riku looks up to the guy, but he doesn't wanna seem weak, either.]

Come on, Riku, you haven't even landed a hit!

[He's agile, but still inexperienced. Riku is still self taught. And Ven is probably faster than Riku. And Terra can still anticipate all of Riku's attacks, blocking some with his arm guard if needed.]

[Dang it! He's good. Still, there has to be something he can do...

What if he tries to get him from behind?]

[Like Terra hasn't thought of that. Come on, just try. Riku's next block is getting something added to it as Terra pushes him back forcefully.]

[Guh!

Then he'll have to get trickier. Riku rushes forward, as if he's going to hit from the front, only to dodge roll to the side in an attempt at a quick side-jab.]

[Almost got him there, and Terra catches the swing with his arm guard again. Good, but still not enough.]

Is that the best you got?

[Why does he keep missing?

Riku grinds his teeth and tightens his grip on the weapon. What if he jumps up and tries to strike down from above? There has to be something he can do!]

Well?

[Come on, Riku.]

[Jumping up, slamming down! If that doesn't work, he's gonna immediately try to combo him. Oh, Riku.]
