    Summary

    Most tragedies don't spring out of thin air; they start quietly. A hiring mistake here. A greed-driven oversight there. Maybe a bit of prideful ignorance to really get it going. Danger creeps in on padded feet, and nobody notices until a statistic gets another notch on its belt. A man from modern-day Earth drenched in guilt wakes up in the forest near Sandgem Town with questions. Where is he? Who brought him here? Is he hallucinating these pokemon? A plot churns in the background, uncaring of who or what it might crush in its gears... the man and the allies he gathers along the way might be the only shot to stop it from becoming a tragedy.

    Summary

    From behind her back, arms reached around her. Pulled her close to a being she could not observe, for her body no longer obeyed her commands. Its body was warm and soft and it held her so close, so very close, as if it was afraid of letting her go.

    Something was burning inside of her. Tearing at her chest. Coursing through her arms.

    The being did not speak and it did not need to. It only had to hold on as the world was consumed by the darkness, whisking the two of them into nothingness, into a void filled with millions of blue stars born from scorpions.

    It accepted her anger as they fell away from the stars and the sun and the light that was gone in an instant.

    Summary

    After yet another harrowing brush with supernatural threats, it's determined that Soma Cruz will be put under the direct surveillance of Genya Arikado - and that means he'll have to live with mysterious and intimidating agent for the foreseeable future. It's not the easiest arrangement for either, but Arikado could benefit from some company and Soma is more than a little curious about his reclusive acquaintance.

    A frayed bond soaked in centuries of blood and tears is given a second chance.
    Its existence still unknown to one, and terrifyingly clear to the other.
