HIT THE DECK!!!
...
*Gliscor lifts up from beneath a fallen lab table He winces from several freely bleeding cuts due to exploding glass*
Gliscor: Ow... My ears...
*Gliscor pushes the table all the way off and slowly manages to stand up.
The lab lies in ruins.
All the lab tables lie on their sides along with a fine film of broken glass, covering the floor like glitter.
All objects of the room are black, and the air hangs thick with smoke.
Gliscor slowly tries to make his way around the blackened equipment, making sure not to inhale too deeply. The smoke burns his eyes and they fill with tears.
Still, he tries to search the lab for sign of his partner*
Gliscor: Charizard! Where the blazes are you?
*Gliscor stops as he feels something soft underfoot. He looks down to see a red hand twitching from beneath a fallen bookshelf.
Gliscor: Charizard!
Hold on!
*Gliscor's claws glow bright yellow*
X-Scissor!
*The bookcase splifs into four sections, revealing charizard's moaning form underneath.
Gliscor sighs with relief.*
Gliscor: Thank heavens.
-he reaches down and starts digging charizard out.
Eventually charizard picks himself out and stands.
Charizard: {Rubbing his head} Good, you were able to take cover in time.
-he takes a look around at the charred laboratory-
Charizard: Looks like the outside of a military bomb shelter in here.
...or Scrappy's house. Ow.
Gliscor: -looking around- All that research...
-charizard meerly dusts himself off
Gliscor turns angrily toward his friend-
Gliscor: You see! I told you mixing Sulfur was a bad idea! Just look at this!
-Charizard cracks his neck experimentally-
Gliscor: All that work...
We were so close!!!
Charizard: ... And successful.
-Gliscor stops with mouth hanging open-
Gliscor: Come again?
Charizard: Our hypothesis... Was correct.
Gliscor: You mean...?
*Charizard blows blue torrent of fire out from his nostrils*
Charizard: I mean we were correct.
*Charizard holds his paws out to Gliscor.
Then opens them to reveal a terrified rat.
Terrified but perfectly healthy.*
Gliscor: You mean...
*Charizard nods*
Charizard: Gliscor, I present to yoi, the universal cure!
