Sora just heard Lumi call out to ask if they were leaving when it was drowned out by the sound of Storm next to him and the sudden scream of pain. The two brothers started to back away in fear, eyes wide, as the form of their baby brother continued to grow. Sora didn't want to leave Cane, but he couldn't bring himself to move forward towards him. His paws felt like lead and he could feel his whole body trembling as the blood pounded in his ears. Storm still stood next to him, but the grayish Eevee looked even more terrified than before, yellow eyes wide as saucers as he stared in horror at what their brother had become. 

He stood stock still and couldn't even hear what Lumi was saying. It was muffled and distant as he stared up at the massive Vaporeon that was once Cane. This is what the adventuring team had been talking about. The stones turning the Pokemon that touched them into massive beasts that were nearly impossible to fight. The dripping fangs, massive claws, and swinging axe-like tail left no room for the imagination as to what would happen if they stuck around any longer, but he just couldn't move.

[b]"Don't go near him!"[/b] Storm called out to Lumi as their sister moved towards Cane. He flinched as the beast roared, but could see the fear now holding both Sora and Lumi rigid in place. He watched as the huge, clawed paw raised into the air and bolted towards where Lumi was. The movement pulled the attention away from his sister, just as he wanted, but his eyes went wide for just a brief moment before the claw slammed into him instead.

The roar snapped Sora out of whatever paralysis had taken his body and his head snapped over just in time to see his annoying, grouchy brother get thrown into the wall like he weighed nothing. The snap echoed around the cavern and in his ears and he rushed over just as quickly as Lumi did, breath hitched and heaving as he stared down at the limp form. Yellow eyes wide with fear in his last moments, and the sight burned itself into Sora's brain with a vengeance. 

He didn't even register the tears that were building in his eyes as he stared blankly down at Storm. [color=a0410d][i]Why? Why? Why?[/i][/color] The constant mantra played over and over in his head as everything that had just happened finally caught up to him and he let out a wail of grief. He wanted to throw himself on the ground, over the body of his brother, but he couldn't as the snarl reached his ears and he had to duck behind one of the stones as Lumi slipped through Canes paws.

The scream from his sister drove the fear forward enough as he peered out from behind the stone at the slavering jaws of the creature. It shook its head from the impact against the wall and turned yellow eyes onto him. There was no semblance of the sweet little brother there anymore, and he waited a moment, staring at it, before bolting towards the entrance. The howling roar put speed into his paws as he felt the ground shake as the beast lumbered towards him. He could very nearly feel the heat of its breath on his tail as he squeezed into the crevice just as the claws clashed into the stone where he once was. 

Nothing registered as he followed after Lumi at a breakneck pace until they burst out of the cave entrance. He could still hear the angry howls echoing inside though it was slightly muffled by the stone and sound of the river that ran through the ravine. Sides heaving he turned and stared back into the cave, [color=a0410d][b]"What...what was that?"[/b][/color]
