Kaze had watched part of the destructive battle only moments before they disappeared into a portal. A few moments later, Tantalus came falling out of the portal, only, not in one piece. With a loud shout that likely neither of the two combatants heard, he began to rush over to Tantalus, only to be interrupted when Tantalus began coating his wounds with ice to stop the bleeding. The blood-swirled frost certainly could not have been comfortable. Stopping in his tracks, Kaze could only gaze at the maniacal thing before him.

Tantalus . . . was no longer Tantalus. He had been changed into some crazed creature. Rather than perhaps healing, he was set on destruction. Then, Kaze's mind returned to the previous night. [i]Xerneas[/i]. That was the only answer to this insanity. As the thing let loose an Aurora Beam that arced through the sky toward the massive monstrosity, Kaze felt the urge to stop the attack. He knew not why, but he figured Suicune was behind the impulse. Giving a ring of his Soothe Bell, he calmed his trembling nerves before doing what he felt he had to do.

Channeling what energy he could, Kaze fired a Bubble Beam into the rainbow light. The result was a crystalline light show. While some of the attack still made it through to the monster hanging through the portal, it was spared the brunt of the attack. Hoping to have distracted the two long enough for them to perhaps listen, Kaze called to the not-Tantalus. "Xerneas!" he cried. "What have you done to Tantalus?"

Inside, Kaze couldn't believe what he was doing. If he couldn't calm these two titans, he'd be dead. Yet somehow, the 13-year-old stood firm, determined to fix the wrongs of the situation in any way he could.
