BATTLE OF SNOWPOINT CITY

CURRENT TALLY

Lux: 8198
Nox: 5890

Nox thought they were safe holed away in Snowpoint City. They were wrong.

An attack in the planning for a long time now, Lux has gathered their crack troops as well as their normal retinue of soldiers. They marched in stealth to Lake Acuity, their approach masked by the worst blizzard the region's seen in years. It's a white-out, but their troops are equipped with thermal goggles and top-of-the-line gear to keep them warm.

But Nox is not so easily defeated on their home turf, and neither is Father Winter. Gear and gadget malfunctions are the least of Lux's concerns as the bitter cold eats away at their resolve. Nox reacted fast to Lux's approach, responding with lethal strikes aided by their own familiarity with the land.

Outside of the city, both sides try to ambush the other, dark silhouettes and murder in the snow. Inside the city, electrodes and golems explode, catapulted into the city by Lux war technicians at a safe distance, but Nox responds with absols and froslasses, perish songs and curses.

The city is in chaos. The surroundings are a death trap. Everyone is slowly freezing to death.

Lux, eradicate the city of insurgents.

Nox, put the tyrannical invasion to rout.

The Battle of Snowpoint City has begun!

They made their patrol across the snow, trying to wary for invaders, but mostly they just grumbled about the cold.

The ace trainer's feet were cold and wet despite fur-lined boots, but the skier was more accustomed to the snow. "C'mon," the skier said. "There's no Lux out here. There's never any Lux out here. We should go back."

"How can you tell there's no one? I can't see three feet in front of my face."

"Neither can I. Do we need to? Think about it. Who's crazy enough to be out there during a blizzard like this?"

The ace trainer didn't see it, but he heard the skier's scream fade into the soft exhale of a last breath. Famous last words, he thought.

The ace trainer's shaped a shrill whistle--a poor imitation of a golbat's screech, but it'd let the other scouts around know that the enemy was about. His wasn't the only whistle he heard, and the ace trainer would've cursed except he didn't want to be heard.

Hands fumbling through thick mittens, he sent a signal flare up into the sky, a warning of invasion.

It was cold. No, serious, it was fucking cold. Also, it was snowing. Like a lot.

"I can't feel," a beauty said through chattering teeth. She could barely see either, and that was only because they'd equipped her with heat-sensing goggles. "Not just my toes, I can't feel. It's s-s-s-s-so--"

"Cold," the swimmer interrupted irritably. They were from Cerulean City, where the temperature never dropped this low. "Yes, I know. I heard you the first time."

"I think my nose is frozen."

The swimmer thought his metapod was frozen, so he wasn't inclined towards sympathy. Still, he tried to look on the upside. "Maybe your tongue will freeze too."

She shuddered at the thought. "At least we'll take them by surprise."

Those were famous last words too.

The snowdrifts had hid them, and their goggles didn't pick up the heat because they had none. From out of the blizzard, a dozen froslasses appeared, an ominous wind carrying them to the start of a battle.

EGG HATCH, the swimmer thought.

ROUND 1 BEGINS.
