I'm going to take over the world and no one can stop me not even y- okay well if you ask nicely I guess [EternatusPossessed!Leon?]
Everything had happened so fucking fast, Raihan is sure for a second he must still be processing, blinking dust from his eyes, ears ringing from the shockwave of the pokeball blasting back open. He must have heard wrong, must be seeing things.
He'd ran after Leon, of course he had, the others could handle evacuation and all the chaos, but no fucking way in hell was he leaving his best friend to handle some clearly powerful, rampaging beast of a pokemon on his own.
He'd been about to make some snarky comment about trying to catch the thing in plain old pokeballs, a weak attempt to elavate some of the choking tension of the battle they were facing, when the most recent attempt at containing the weakened monster had literally shattered on them, blowing Raihan back with the force and blinding him for a moment like a flashbang.
"What the 'ell are you doin'!?" He'd snapped as his vision started to clear, but he hadn't been expecting the answer he'd gotten, one that gave him pause and sent shivers down his spine, awakening something primal that screamed wrongwrongdangerthreat.
It...sounded like Leon. Looked like him, mostly.
Except the tone echoed, almost staticy, like there were two people talking at once.
Except there was something like an afterglow clinging to his skin, something not quite the same about the colour of his eyes.
Everything familar felt like it was suddenly slightly to the left, it made Raihan feel dizzy and sick from the sheer feeling of somethings not right.
The words sink in, the implications soon follow, and Raihan is swallowing back bile as he's struck with the awful thought of 'Which one of them said that?'
Because he realises with nasuating clarity that Eternatus is gone.
Something is standing infront of him that's both, yet feels like neither at once.
