TRAIL #14 [action/video] 4TH WALL

[trailweblaze]

[video]

<sub>[The video starts with 'Gear bouncing over the ground, as if it was dropped which it probably was if you consider what comes into view.]

[Perched on top of one of the high buildings typical of Saffron City is something large. Something enormous with big, black claws and small, green-glowing eyes, and it's leering right down at you.]

[There's a horrible sounds as the strange abomination leaps, the views is jumbled as the 'gear is hastily picked up and then abruptly turned off.]</sub>


[action]

A WILD STONE JAGUAR APPEARED

>Fight >Poké
>Item >Run

Can't escape!

Tulio and Miguel are running for their lives anyway because there's no stopping this thing. It seems to have it's lock-on targeted on them, and it's relentlessly crashing everything that gets in its way to get to them.

_{(Or, ignore the immense jaguar made of stone and ungodly magic and just have nonsensical 4th wall fun with us anyway /o/)}

<sub>[And he accepts the pull without protest or stuggle, instead follows blindly as Miguel leads, trusting him completely.]

[The alley isn't bad, even if it's too wide; up ahead there's a fence, and if they can climb it, they might be safe on the other side of it.]

[Breathlessly pointing at the container and trash cans further down, Tulio nudges at Miguel to just keep going, even as he runs himself, feet heavy on the ground now. Getting tired.]</sub>

<sub>[They gotta find a get away, and soon. This could be great time to be thankful for the endurance they've built up, except they're busy being chased by 23 feet of death.]

[Miguel leaps/climbs up on one of the containers, without hesitation turning to grab Tulio's arm and help him up.]</sub>

[greatbigrock]

<sub>[Oh, very thankful. Very, VERY thankful, in fact, for all the practise the guards have given them in running from things that could kill you. .. of course, this feels ENTIRELY different, but in the end they're still used to the things they're doing.]

[The climbing, the reaching out, accepting help, giving it, and leaping from one place to the other and swinging a foot over the face (steel-wire-something, and not a wooden plank, but familiar enough by now) and then hopping down on the other side, scraping knees and hands a bit, but ultimately? Being okay.]

[He rolls out of the way, looks up and down the area while he waits for Miguel.]</sub>

_{[Miguel joins him very shortly, staying put for a few moments to catch his breath.]}

Do we hide or keep running?

_{[The stone jaguar can still be heard crashing through the alleyway behind them but it doesn't seem like it have seen them yet.]}

I think there's a narrow alley over there. _{[He points out towards a huge street - the size of a freeway - and on the other side of that, squeezed between two buildings, is a dark, thin stretch of street.]}

[greatbigrock]

_{[Tulio debates it for a moment. It could spot them any time and they'd be too close. But if they run, it'll spot them for sure. On the other hand, the sooner they run, they could squeeze into that thin darkness, and as powerful as the jaguar is, he doesn't think it could wreck the two buildings all the way through. Especially not without someone or something stopping them.]}

Run, _{[He thus says after a moment, shoots Miguel a grim look and grabs his arm briefly as he gets to his feet, remaining crouched for a moment. Reaches to help Miguel up, as well.]}

On three.

[trailweblaze]

<sub>[He trusts Tulio. He trusts he knows what he is doing and that this will go well. It does go well usually, now doesn't it? Doesn't it?]

[He grabs Tulio's hand and gets up to his feet, brushing the other's arm as they let go. With a quick glance at Tulio, and then at their destination, the alley, Miguel braces himself, gets ready to run. Initiate countdown.]</sub>

One...
