Day One: Part 1

[Karl Jak]

Face to Face
#10 Alain vs #25 Jak Mar

How long had it been?

Probably minutes, but for the mercenary, every step felt like it took an hour.

His vision blurred in an out of focus as he limped. In an attempt to steer safe, he’d abandoned the network of roads that ringed the exterior of the island. With any luck, he found find someone quiet and wait out some of the competition. He’d been lucky up until his run-in with the wizard and the bounty hunter… if he could just keep alive until the sunset, he could stealth under some rocks and sleep away some of the agony.

Unfortunately for Alain Velgr, his path intersected with that of Jak Mar. The big-eared man opened his mouth to say something, but the mercenary couldn’t hear quite so well. With a thunk, the Pokeball hit the ground and popped open, spilling out a mass of shining light that faded to reveal a large brown Pokémon with a giant mouth and a pair of pincers jutting out over his head. The angry-looking pocket monster rushed at Jak Mar, who was fumbling for something in his bag.

Pinsir’s pincers clamped around Jak’s arm, and with an audible crunch, the limp snapped backward at a forty-five degree angle. As horrifying as the monster’s attack had been, it had failed to reach the man before the bundle of explosives went airborne.

Alain Velgr watched, unsure whether he should feel angry or relieved, as the dynamite twirled and twisted through the air as it came toward him.

Before he could make up his mind, the dynamite erupted, and the mercenary didn’t have to think anymore.
