Nuvema Town/Morning (19)
Buck was so busy emptying every drawer he found that he failed to notice the ruckus behind him until a huge cobra flew into a pile of furniture next to him with a loud crash. He jumped straight upwards in surprise and clung onto the light fixtures on the ceiling. Swinging there for a few moments to give his heart chance to calm down, he noticed that there were two undead Pokemon: another Absol and a cobra that he did not recognise. The others were fighting the two monsters to the best of their ability. What the hell are you doing? Buck thought, disgusted at himself. Get down there and help them already!
As much as he didn't want to, he let go of the light and landed just as the undead Absol noticed him and charged, its bloody fangs bared. Buck was trembling from head to toe with terror, but he was ready. It was about time he got over his stupid fear and actually tried to live in this new world without being afraid all the damn time. After all, by the way that the world looked, it seemed as though survivors like himself would have to deal with the undead for a long time. He'd have to get used to it sooner or later.
Timing his attack with precision, Buck leaped upwards just as the Absol was gaining on him and slashed its right eye out. The creature reared and howled in agony, purple blood spurting from the hole in its head. While it was distracted, Buck became a blur as he zoomed forward at an incredible speed. His Quick Attack hit the Absol dead on and it crashed through one of the windows.
Damn, since when was I as good as this? Feeling slightly smug after his victory, Buck then turned towards the cobra and aimed an Ice Beam at the serpent, restricting its movement. This is for you, Norma Jean, Zack...
