The Makuhita and Golett nod silently. And shove Lucca forward. The scientist doesn't resist.

"I...don't really want to but I don't think I get much choice," she manages to quip as the two Pokemon push open the door. Noise floods the halls of the Ashtear house, the mechanical clatter, a slamming of hammers against anvils, and a scream for help

Inside, clearly visible through the doorway, is Lucca's own mother. Her leg is caught against some sort of conveyor belt, and industrial hammers are pounding away. One of her dad's inventions, steadily moving Lara Ashtear towards her fate. Estelle might remember her from home, a crippled woman bound to a wheelchair.

Lucca stands there numbly at first, watching as the seconds creep by.

"I...couldn't save her, then. I couldn't...I couldn't reach the controls..."
