“They don’t understand.” Red’s voice was agitated, as he stroked Lance’s long hair. “They’re all fools. The think they’ve backed me into a corner, but they haven’t. I’ll never agree to their wishes!”

“Red…”

“I don’t care! The legendary pokemon are not meant to be contained!”

“I know.” Lance replied. He shook his head slowly. “I know now that coercing Lugia was a foolish thought… and that I should simply be content with my dragons…”

“But why must the League control the legendaries?”

“Perhaps they do not wish for Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres to fall into Team Rocket’s hands once more. That would be dangerous.”

“Then they’re fools!” Red exploded. “Life is dangerous!’

“Exactly.”

A few moments passed, and Red frowned as he heard footsteps. “So Yellow told them where I had gone.”

“You are spending an inordinate amount of time here, yes.”

“It’s okay.” Red demurred. “They can take my position. That doesn’t matter. I have my pokemon, and I have you. You’re the only person who matters to me now.”

“Red…”

“Kiss me?”

Lance obliged, his arms sliding around Red’s waist. His eyes glittered blue for a second, and then they both faded into the shadows.

There were several League policemen, and Yellow and Green, but no Blue, since she was probably off training with Silver in Johto.

His teeth bared in a silent snarl, but as they walked around, even Pika saw nothing out of the ordinary, and they moved on to the next cavern.

After they had gone, Lance released Red, a malicious smile on his face. “It is just as well that you have said farewell to them, love, for if they find Lugia, my Father will destroy them.”

Somewhere in the back of Red’s mind, a voice yelled that he shouldn’t kill his friends, but he didn’t care.

“Oh?”

“Yes.”

“Good.” Red smiled, and relaxed into Lance’s embrace once again.

End Fic

Completed 11/24/06

Takes place in the same universe as Theme #18.

Does anyone but me wonder why they show the ice, ghost, and fighting armies fainting after Lugia absorbs the energy, but not Lance’s dragon army?
