SHK 11: Friends and Foes
SHK 11: A Tale of Two Battles
Sandshrew: Hello again. I am Sandshrew the freshman in for the duties of Celia the Clefable who has ditched me *ow, okay sorry Celia* in this press box. We saw such a weird display of power and darkness just now as Yin and Pikachu fought each other. Who knows what crazy battles will take place here in this stadium. For those history buffs here and for a lum berry, what was the former name of the Pokemon Skills Center before it was acquired by the PRISM Institute?
Soon, a Spinda rushed into the room shouting the answer in its natural slurred cute tongue. "SO....AFAT" he said so that it sounded like "SO FAT". Unfortunately, he was staring at Celia who was right in front of him. "What did you call me?" she shouted, enraged at the hapless Spinda. But the panda pokemon smiled at her and began to dance. "Why I oughta... dance." The Spinda used the opportunity to take the berry from Sandshrew who just tossed it to him.
Sandshrew: That's right. The SOAFAT was the training center that used to be on this island before it was bought and added to the new sets of complexes being built on the island. That's all for now. Allie and Menkaure will fight at 9pm tonight, followed by Reika and Connie at Midnight.
Sandshrew turned off the mic and went into an uproar watching Celia dance in confusion. "Serves you right for jumping to conclusions, Ms. Celia." Even though it seemed funny, he wondered how that Spinda did it so effectively and why she was still in the confusion. So what's your name, little guy? At this, the spinda got irate and talked in a high-pitched kid's voice. "Damn you, I am older than you. Got that buddy!" suddenly talking without the slur. However, he wasn't the bit threatening. "My name is Nisix jackass and I assure you I'll crush you in battle. You are such a puss for not participating in this contest."
The shrew rolled his eyes and pointed out that it's only for people in those groups. "Whatever puny shrew, I'll destroy you," shouted the spinda as he stomped out. Sandshrew couldn't stop cracking up after that.
Rebirth of a Friendship
Allie sat down in her room trying to transform into her anthro form. Even though she wasn't one of the evil experiments and bore no heart of darkness symbol on her body, it was still difficult for her. Her mind was still a cloud even for Chan's many attempts to help her relax. Malachi's abuse of her body was still fresh in her mind. She had told Chan immediately after Malachi began his rampage. Unlike his normal behavior, he felt it was more important to tend to his hurting wife instead of seeking revenge. A tear fell from her eyes as she looked in the mirror, cursing the day where she was captured by those scientists. Today was her birthday, but she was depressed.
Chan took care of all of her duties while she recuperated upstairs. "I really wish the kids didn't have to see her like this. We will have to tell them sooner or later before Abra cultivates his mind reading ability or Tyrogue becomes nosy. Yes, nip it in the bud now by..." His thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of the front doorbell. His kids came dashing in with Pikachu, who had bandages wrapped around her chest and a bow in her hands, all of them in their natural forms. "Are you doing better, Pikachu?" She sighed and sat down in the nearest chair. "I will be fine. The only thing that stings in the nasty three hit defeat I got... and after I seemed ahead of the game." Chan chuckled. "There is a wise saying... pay attention to what your enemy does in other fights. Now you guys give your presents to Mom. She needs a cheering up."
Pikachu looked at the box she carried in. "I wish I knew what was going on with the rockets at that point. I would have given her a heads up. I recall seeing Cacnea mope about the battle tourney the day it was announced. However, he loves to fight. That Menkaure character also intrigues me as weird, too. Luckily, I gathered all my data from Sandshrew and Eevee and figured that those two rockets were experiments. It is too bad I found that out after the fact." She looked at the bandages across her chest again. "You know Chan, I never thought I get that far with Yin." Chan chuckled at that. "You haven't seen the full normal Yin in action. But he isn't normal as he is. I am not sure why he hasn't burnt out from that...I know you have been collecting intel on that rage mode that all the experiments have. It can cause a pokemon to burn out as it did with the experiments 2-4. Pikachu, this whole cure the dark pokemon thing requires a partnership with some of the others. As of right now... we can't find the eggs. Can you find help, Pikachu?" The yellow mouse agrees and sat back in her chair.
Allie saw the door fly open and her kids rush in to hug her. "I have to snap out of it for these smiling angels; come on be happy." Abra was the first to dive into his mom's lap. "Mommy, Mommy, look what Tyrogue made, look what Tyrogue made!" The Tyrogue handed Allie a necklace of colorful shards and crystals. Abra then pulled out a large painting of her and Chan walking along the beach at sunset. In the background of the picture were wingulls flying about, chasing Tyrogue about as he had a few shards in his hand. "I hope that you like it mom," said the Abra in his most cute tone he could manage. She grew very quiet and just tightly hugged her kids, a tear streaking from her cheek "I love you guys so much. Thank you for the gifts.
Pikachu went up next with the box she carried in. It was very difficult to carry with its sheer width. "Hey Dr. Allie... happy birthday. I really hope you are doing better." Alakazam psychically lifted the box and placed it on her bed. "Thank you for the gift Pikachu. I am sorry that you couldn't prevail over Yin." Pikachu smiled weakly. "I'm glad I'm still around." Pikachu took the kids and left, headed to the hospital for a visit with Reika.
Chan came up once the others left. He kissed her softly and took a seat next to her on the bed. "My love, I am so sorry I couldn't protect you," he said in a deeply caring tone, tears running down his cheek. He quickly hid his face, suddenly feeling embarrassed. Allie stroked his head, crying a little. "There was nothing you could have done to stop it. You couldn't see it happening. I know you were anxious because I could feel your heart racing." The hitmonchan lifted his eyes and looked into his lover's eyes. "It wasn't that I couldn't see you... it was that I could feel your pain. We have a bond that can't be broken by some sandstorm. For my gift I give you three things: my loyalty forever until the end of time, a pendant of Tao from Goldenrod, and a friend. Allie looked at him wondering what he was talking about. He got off his knees and opened the door revealing a female anthro Zangoose figure, blushing and carrying an open box of stuff. With that, Chan left the two in the room to catch up.
Allie stuttered in amazement. It was Menkaure, but she seemed normal again. She was smiling and actually coming to visit. "Men... kaure? You are visiting? You haven't visited in a long time. We haven't even had a one-on-one conversation in ages, ever since we were freed from the facility by the police. It wasn't a good day for Menkaure from what she could remember. The one who saved her... her love...she rejected him...too many demons for both of them to deal with. Allie at least found her mate in the whole chaos. Menkaure sat down and tried to lighten the situation. "Before the experiments, we were the best of friend. Those people took that and many other things from me. I am sorry for what happened afterwards. I am sorry for fighting you in that cramped cell and listening to the scientists in my dark haze. It was hard to control because I couldn't show emotions. I am sorry for forcing you into your rage mode. You killed one of those scientists when you went into that mode..." Menkaure stopped talking as Allie began to sniffle.
"I am sorry for all of that. I brought a tape and memories of happier days before the return trip from the Lake of Rage. We can look over them later after the battle. I really want to be your friend once again...I am really..." Allie cuts her off with a hug. "It's okay, but you do realize that by technicality, we are enemies." Menkaure nosed Allie while in the embrace. "It's ok, I never said I was going to go easy." Allie laughed for the first time today. They sat down and looked through one of the albums from that day. There were pictures of them wrestling, swimming, eating, playing games, playing tricks on Yin and a Ninetales from the past... so many friends that are no longer around for that day was the last day for may of them. "We should probably look earlier for more happy times..." said Allie in a solemn state. "I am glad at least one of my friends is back in my life." Menkaure smiled at her and left. "See ya on the battlefield. Winner buys the food at dinner."
"Sure," said Allie. "I know I will be ordering tonight and don't you doubt it." Menkaure waved as she left. "Eh, I have the money to pay; after all, I know you will mess up in the battle giving the edge I need."
Prodigy
Menkaure walked back to base feeling very happy that she had recovered a friend.
May the result of the battle never change our relationship. She began to think of a strategy to fight Allie as hard as possible without sending her to the hospital. Up ahead was the great Team Rocket House. The outside of the house looked untouched as if a certain cactus boy hadn't done his job. "God, Cacnea, are you willing to ruin your chance for the naming ceremony like that. If the inside of that house isn't clean, you can't be nominated" "Damn, I will have to put a foot down." She opened the door to the house and saw that it was... spotless. Not a single speck of dust anywhere. She looked through the rooms, seeing nothing there. Then she came upon a dark room with no lights and apparently a figure standing, facing away from the door.
It was an avian female, younger than Cacnea. She appeared to be looking around the room, scanning her head with her rigid beak. Murkrow morph had a feathery crown of hair that made Menkaure think of witch tales. There was so much information about this morphic Murkrow and so little about her method. Like the boss said, she was a prodigy. She is the youngest pokemon to ever get a naming ceremony. However, instructors can't stand her because she mindfucks. It isn't a psychic mindfucking, but just the creepy nature of her actions and her brooding. Her birth name is Sunshine, but she prefers to be called Matilda. Menkaure was considering all the rumors as the avian turned around to face her, her dark purple eyes seemingly glaring into her soul. Menkaure couldn't look away from those big dark purple eyes. Finally, the Murkrow closed them, smiling to herself. "I see that you are a bit different from the other instructors and trainers I have been with. I see you are good in heart."
Menkaure took a second to digest this idea and gather her thoughts. "Hello, I am Menkaure and welcome to the Team Rocket Training Facility of PRISM. Glad to meet you, Sunshine." The Murkrow winced at that and looked at Menkaure, her eyes now fluctuating into different shades of purple. "I am Matilda, not Sunshine, not ever Sunshine!" Menkaure sighed. "You are Sunshine until you lighten up. This is not very serious business here... I just got upgraded to leader here and need to figure out my team before I decide to make a full regimen. So until then Sunny, that is your name." The zangoose's playful tone flew right over Matilda's head as she seethed with anger.
Soon, Cacnea ran into the room. "Okay Matilda, your room is read... oh hi Menk!" Menkaure hugged Cacnea. "Hi there, and guess what, I will nominate you for your naming ceremony. You did a good job here." Cacnea bowed in appreciation then turned to the angered Murkrow. "What's up with Matilda?" Menkaure laughed. "We are going to have so much fun. Oh and one more thing... don't mindfuck with me when I sleep tonight. I already know that is what you do. Practice will be high for tomorrow, phase two of my plan will launch during the finals whether or not I win tonight." Matilda bowed to Cacnea in appreciation for the room and scowled at Menkaure before heading to her room.
"Have you seen her room? It's all goth," said Cacnea. "Whatever, you got a battle to go to and I have a new trainee to show the campus nightlife to." Menkaure gestured him over and took his fake ID. "Heh, go ahead and take it. I'll make more."
Vengeance is Mine
Reika sat in the room staring at her ailing love's eyes, wishing to restore his soul somehow. Recently, he has been having recurring nightmares as his time wore thin. "I got an appointment for you, TK, after the finals." The Croconaw didn't respond, still buried in self-disdain because of his lying. Reika looked over at her love wondering what was wrong. "Is something the matter, TK?" He shrugged.
"I will seek vengeance on Connie for doing this to you," said Reika under her breath. She didn't notice that someone walked into the room. "Hello Reika. Hello TK. How are you feeling today?" Reika looked up and saw the Altaria Doctor checking TK's vitals and reducing the amount of painkillers by a lot after checking the vitals. "Sheesh... he doesn't need the vitals and he will need to be checked out of here soon because he doesn't have any serious physical problems." Takeru looked up at the doctor in horror. "Why would you do that to me?" The Altaria pointed out the window to another building. "He needs to go there for specialist help. We need this bed for incoming patients."
Reika nodded and helped the nurses move her love over to the new building. This building looked similar to the hospital that they were just in, except the workers weren't Altaria this time. All of them were various fairy-type pokemon except for a silver colored large pokemon going through medical files. "Is that Bawek?" Reika asked one of the Altaria helping her move Takeru to his new room. "It sure is. He is the greatest asset in our hospital complex. A true master of medicine and technology, he offered his services to TK, whose problem is perplexing to most other doctors." Reika smiled for once. "You may be finally getting healed. But that still won't save Connie from what is coming to her." Singular in thought, Reika kissed TK goodbye for now, ready to fight.
TK just stared at his love wondering what was going on in her head. The medical metagross simply sighed as he administered several tests. "Ah, I figured out your problem. You are suffering from Ditto's Soulytis, or DS." TK looked perplexed as he tried to figure out what the doctor meant. "I see you are confused. I am sorry to say, but pretending to be a Croconaw instead of the Ditto you happen to be is bound to lyse your soul. If you don't manage to change back or get to a shaman although strictly advised against, you will certainly die." TK shuddered and knew he had to figure it out soon or else perish. Dr. Bawek thought quietly to himself as he left the room. "I think I found one of the eggs... I could feel the bitterness flowing through..."
En route to the stadium, Reika came across Pikachu sitting quietly in the field in her natural form, stargazing with Allie's two kids. "How are things Reika?" asked Pikachu in a caring tone. "I know that you are in a rage right now. I really need you to be careful when you fight, not just for yourself, but realize that killing is discouraged. More importantly, I have questions on TK. Why is just his soul withering away? Where is the physical damage he should have sustained? One more thing I noticed is that you seem darker recently, only meditating on revenge and behaving like the nutcase leaders of every single team." Reika looked down at the pikachu, flashing her eyes bright red at the reclined Pikachu. "What? I told you what I thought. Go on and flare your rage somewhere else." The anthro Ninetales made the around her very hot, making Pikachu and the two kids sweat. "Ma'am, that is very hot... please be forgiving Ms. Pikachu of her obnoxious thoughts." Reika smiled at the kids and left Pikachu drenched in sweat. "What the hell was that? It didn't feel like a normal fire."
Good Friends through It All
Sandshrew: We are rearing to go in the stadium. We had seen a great battle here just yesterday with Yin edging out over Pikachu in a hot battle. Tonight, we will draw a close to the Semi-Finals with a double header. First up is Allie of the KBI and Menkaure of Team Rocket.
Allie was out and ready to fight. She bore somewhat big hips that managed to fit her shapely body. She had C cup breasts but no muscle tone because it really is impossible with alakazams because of muscle decay. The whiskers that would be on her face were gone now, as were her spoons that fused into her body and appeared as symbols in her palms. She stood at 6' even. Upon seeing Menkaure enter in her anthro form, she blushed a bit at the stronger, younger looking body of her opponent.
Elliot the referee went to the two battlers. "How are you lovely ladies doing? Remember, no items and no cheating." Menkaure and Allie giggle at the referee who quickly examined his predicament and rushed off field to hide it. "Wow, he was looking very hot and embarrassed." Soon, the ref came back, bearing a loin cloth and launched the flamethrower to start the battle.
Allie dashed at blinding speed at her zangoose opponent. "Ice Punch, Thunderpunch Double Strike!" She formed an ice punch in her right hand and a fire punch in her left hand. Her fists flowed with great energy as she tried to strike Menkaure with them; but to no avail as the zangoose maneuvered her slender body around the attacks. Frustrated with the punching, Allie launched a simple Psychic attack to blast her backwards. "Man, you have been practicing," said Allie, complimenting Menkaure's dodging ability.
Menkaure smiled and started up her volley of slash attacks, her arms looking blurry as she tried to strike the alakazam morph. Magically, Menkaure seem to be missing even though Allie was bigger than her. "It's those psychic powers of yours, of course. I hope you are ready for this. Shadow Ball!" Allie couldn't dodge it fully at took a bit of damage from it.
"This won't do," said Allie panting a bit.
"I know what you mean," replied Menkaure, also notably tired.
"Wanna go it just like old times?"
"Eh, sure, can't hurt can it?"
Sandshrew: Are they conversing? This is something unheard of in the history of the Salac Tournament in its two years. Please go back to fighting...
Allie returned to her starting position and began focusing all her energy, calming her mind and increasing her special powers. "Ah, so that's the way you wanna do it!" beamed Menkaure as she began her Swords Dance.
Sandshrew: O, I see, they want to finish this at their full strengths!
Allie finished her Calm mind technique and rushed at Menkaure with her special technique, Triple Element Punch. The volley of fire, ice, and thunder punches all missed as Menkaure continued her swords dance through it all. "You missed Allie, now it is time up for you in this battle." Menkaure began her volley of rapid slash attacks which managed not to even land. "Menk, you forgot that my mind is entirely focused. I can't lose!" Allie launched a psychic ball at Menkaure, but she countered with shadow ball that dissipated the attack. "Well, when all else fails, we try something new," said Allie as she jumped back into her starting position. "Heh, then this is it then, see you in the winner's circle," retorted Menkaure.
The two began to run at each other, Allie bearing an Ice punch and Menkaure bearing a slash attack. The entire crowd could see were two blurs approaching each other at an incredible velocity. Soon the two blurs passed through each other and the two anthro pokemon materialized. Both of them were panting, but Menkaure was on one of her knees. "That smarted," she said. "I can still feel the frigid nature of that ice punch. I still got a piece of you though. It was a good fight."
"I didn't get the proper angle on that hit," said Allie, still standing on her two feet. "Tonight we will eat, your treat of course." Menkaure nodded then heard a thump behind her as Allie fell on the floor, out cold. Menkaure picked up Allie and carried her to the medics. "It's ok, I just knocked the wind out of her. I bet she didn't expect it."
Sandshrew: What an interesting finish, friends through it all. Now here comes the next battle in five minutes. And guess what, we will have a guest announcer today: Kudzco the Shiftry and leader of the HIA, which is in the process of moving to a new facility.
Kudzco: Let's get it on!
Vengeance is Mine!
Reika paced back and forth, just as she had been prone to doing as of recent. Who knew that the sleepy-eyed apparently empty-headed Vulpix they met on the first day could express such bitter anger. The time had come for revenge. Something about the soul thing still bothered her but it didn't matter. She would do all she could to help make TK better. "Connie will rest on this battle field for the last time."
Pikachu once again came upon Reika, this time not bearing the nasty attitude that she had exhibited to Reika last time. "Reika... please realize that vengeance doesn't solve a thing... how can I make you understand?" Reika seemed to ignore every single word Pikachu said, stuck in her dark funk of her one-track vengeance plot. Slowly, a symbol began emerging from Reika's forehead of her large 6'4" kitsune body. Pikachu noted this. "Reika, go to the bathroom and use this to cover up that symbol on your head. But first, read it." Finally, Reika responded and grabbed the dye. She looked into the mirror and to her shock, that evil symbol she heard about in rumors concerning Yin, Menkaure and Nido, was on her now. "Oh, shit... I can't let people see this." She applied the dye so that it was hidden and went back to the stadium huffing and puffing and ready to take down Connie.
Connie meanwhile had had a glorious day, taking care of Yin who was in the hospital, recovering from exhaustion. Eevee and she didn't quite see eye to eye, but what mattered at this point was Yin's health. Of course, Eevee was still in a sort of mental confusion of the nature of the relationships on this team. "So, Connie, how was it?" Eevee asked solemnly during one of their breaks from taking care of Yin. Connie was taken aback by the suddenly probing question. "Eevee... I'm sorry, but I have fallen in love with him."
Eevee trembled when she heard this from Connie's mouth. "But you are Connie the thief who was the very same Sneasel who sole my former master's money and made life hell for me. You are that same creature that went from camp to camp of pokemon societies taking what she needed and abandoning them in their times of need." Connie was shaken by that outburst of information. "Why were you looking me up?" shouted Connie. Eevee trembled with anger as they stood at the same height in their anthro forms looking into each other's eyes with anger. "I don't trust you and I expect you to disappear sooner or later. I love Yin, too."
Connie shook her head. "Eevee, what is wrong with you?" asked Connie, sighing inwardly. In her heart, she knew that until recently, she was going to do the same thing to Yin until she found herself getting attached to the dark sarcastic pokemon. She even gave him the rare privilege of making love to her. "I love him and that won't change ever. I plan on being his mate. I don't know why, but I just enjoyed being with him, enjoying his charm. In a way, you were right, but this time, I have found someone to love and to be attached too. I won't be leaving." Eevee's eyes welled up in tears as she hid her face and left the hospital. "Wait, Eevee... god why did she have to cry about it... couldn't she tell?" The manyula ran to get to the stadium on time. "Sigh... now to face the girl who wants revenge on me. Pathetic person she is, seemingly always a one-track person."
In the audience were two pokemon, looking through filtered binoculars to find a special symbol. They appeared to many others spectators as a strange duo: a large metagross morph and a small Spinda morph. "Hey Bawek, still looking? I found Yin bearing that symbol," said the high pitched Nisix the Spinda. "We aren't going to hurt them are we? I cannot do that according to my Hippocratic Oath. Come on, Nisix, you couldn't even do anything anyway." Nisix scowled at the metagross and turned back to the field. "By the way, I checked out that Ninetales girl and I think she is the one our boss is looking for. She has the symbol and all of his looks, just effeminate." The spinda stopped looking as he saw a vendor come by. "Get me a Berry Juice." The vendor handed Nisix the drink. "Here you go, little guy. Where is your mum so that she can pay for that?" asked the vendor asking in earnest. Nisix flipped out and threw the guy down the many steps. "I will destroy anyone who insults me that way. Now good day." The spinda jumped down on the hurt vendor and thrashed him senseless.
On the field, Elliot launched his flamethrower and the battle began. Connie came into that battle confident that type wouldn't matter with experience. Reika's eyes glowed in the dark of the stadium before they switched on the lights. Connie quietly went into action starting off with a slash attack. Reika avoided it and tried to strike the moving target with Hypnosis. But with Connie all over the place, she couldn't focus on her. "Screw the hypnosis. Overheat attack!" An explosion of heat emanated from her body, griddling the ground and giving her a bright blue aura of fire. She expanded the dome of energy to also hit Connie dealing massive damage at the cost of energy. Reika cackled as she looked over the steaming dark type.
Connie got up and decided against the speed strategy. The Manyula flipped back and began to close her eyes, whispering things that for some reason Reika could hear. "You think you can whisper me to death? I'll make sure you have a painful end!" shouted Reika. Suddenly, the voices got louder in her head. "Aaahhh! Turn them off!" shouted the suddenly dazed ninetales, not even being able to hear herself think. "Heh, you can't think now, not that you really did any before." This insult began to echo in her head.
Kudzco: It appears that Connie has used her special technique called Torture Alpha. It is a combination of Taunt and Torment that leaves the enemy helpless. This attack requires good concentration and because of a certain battler's cloudy mind, she cannot win in this case.
Sandshrew: Very... insightful there... (off the mic) "No dropping hints, ok?"
Kudzco didn't take the slighting very well as the skybox blew up. Sandshrew slumped on the floor knocked out cold by Kudzco's Nuke special. "Now, I will be hosting the rest of this battle."
Bawek looked up at the skybox. "Another experiment spotted, though not one of the evil ones." Nisix grumbled as he continued to look, sitting on top of the guy he knocked out.
The onslaught of quick attacks plus the mind confusion was getting to be too much for Reika. Soon, she had enough and wanted to risk another overheat, but didn't have enough energy to do it. Kudzco was siphoning advice here and there in his description of the field, trying to get Reika to open her eyes. As soon as she does, she sees Connie rushing at her about to pull off her beat down technique, but that is when the tables turned as the ninetales tackled the manyula, breaking the Torture technique. Connie looked at the Ninetales as the blue aura surrounded her form, but this time, blue balls with demon faces formed on her outstretched tails. "What is that?" whimpered Connie.
"Oh this, this is the beginning of your end," replied Reika in an unearthly tone and the dye starting to burn up. Luckily, the heat of her aura prevented the sign from being seen except from the very front... something that Connie saw. "Wait, you are an experiment! Please spare me." Connie turned and ran for the boundary of the field but Reika still hit her with the Demon Will-o-Wisp. Connie screeched in pain as the fireballs didn't burn her but enter her body, burning intensely on the inside before she ran out of the field. Yin watched in horror as he saw her get attacked like that. "Christ, it's one of the eggs..."
Kudzco: Reika is the winner!
TK watched this battle from a television monitor in his room. "She is becoming her dark form...It is my fault too." He sighed and looked at his blotched pink and blue body. He grew tired of forcing the form and but had problems changing into his real form, a ditto.
Memories of a Lifetime
The two ladies strolled into the house laughing about the sights they had seen at the Drunken Clamperl. "That was a great evening, I wish we could have done this earlier..." said Allie. Menkaure reached into the box and pulled out a tape of stuff they did at night at the camp. "Now it is time for the videotape of memories." The two friends smiled at each other and put the tape in.
"Aah, adjust the camera right, Menkaure!" said a younger kadabra Allie.
"Why don't you fix up the camera? I can't handle human technology as well as you," whined the young Menkaure. Immediately afterwards, both of them started arguing behind the scenes. "Why am I the camera lady? You should be back there." Allie's laughter could be heard in between Menkaure's complaints. Soon, a young absol morph agreed to take the position of cameraman. "Thanks, Yin!" shouted both the ladies. "He he, no problem Menkaure!"
"What was that, Yin?" said Allie in a playfully angry tone. "Didn't I say thank you?"
"Roll tape, Yin," said Menkaure.
"Menkaure, you left it on..." said Yin, grumbling.
"Come on, Menk,"
"I'm sorry, sheesh, now where is Miku? He needs to come over here and bring Luna and Chan over."
"Ok, now it is time for Karaoke!"
With that, Menkaure and Allie quickly shut it off. "I am not so sure if I want to hear bad singing tonight." Menkaure laughed at this comment and plopped in a second video label "Swimming contest!" Allie began to sweat... this was not the best video she made.
"Ok, here is our lineup of swimmers in the girls' competition. All they have to do is be the first to cross this lake and they win." The person behind the camera this time sounded like Miku on the other side. "Alright, here are our competitors. In lane one is the beautiful and perhaps athletic Luna the Umbreon. In lane two is the brainiac of the competitors, Allie the Kadabra. In lane three is the exquisitely hot Menkaure the Zangoose. And finally, in lane four is the adorable who is swimming against most others' advice is Jo the Mawile. And with Elliot, our Ref-in-training, let's start this race!"
The ladies all dove into the water and started their advance across the lake. Elliot was watching closely to make sure no one crossed their lanes and that no one was drowning. At the halfway point, none of the positions had changed with all of them in a slowing first place. Pretty soon, Allie's weak muscles gave up and she flailed about in the water. Elliot tossed her a life preserver and laughed a bit as he had Chan pull her to shore. Soon, Jo burst forth with great speed despite her dragging body and went ahead of Luna and Menkaure by 100 meters before sinking into the water. In a minute she emerged from the water pouting as she grinded a magikarp in her large mouth. Finally the remaining two swimmers cramped up but luckily were in shallow waters. "Uh, Jo...isn't that painful for the magikarp." She swallowed the magikarp whole and stomped away in a fury. Elliot declared the swim a fail as no one reached the other side.
"Damn, I did worse than a Mawile..." muttered Allie.
"I didn't even finish..." said Menkaure.
"One more tape in this box..."
"Are you sure you want to watch that one Allie?"
"I'm sure...no one is in the house so if it is something objectionable, it doesn't matter."
Menkaure got up and inserted the tape. "Remember camp when we tried out for that club and they asked us to masturbate together in front of them?" asked Allie.
Menkaure smiled a bit as the scene began rolling. "He he. Yes I never thought I could actually think I could go through with it. But... when they watched us... it turned me on more...I was a flirtatious pokemon then." Allie laughed a bit at the initial scene where she and Menkaure sat down on the bed in their anthro forms too nervous to touch each other. "I was frightened personally, until I felt the caress of your paw on me, Menk, as if you were telling me that there is nothing to worry about..." Menkaure brushes against Allie gently with her claws, oddly turned on by watching them in the past. "In the end it felt great, did it not? I mean..." Allie blushed as this comment as her friend looked totally embarrassed. "Yes it did. I didn't even care that we didn't get into the sorority."
"Personally I was more interested in how many boners we gave the guys that heard about it," said the zangoose, chuckling at the absurdity of the comment. "Well... that was the last tape... once again, thanks for walking me home, Allie. Do you wanna come to my room and hang out for a bit and see the Team Rocket stuff?" Allie thought about it for a moment. "Sure. I don't see any sign of your rookies anywhere. Guess they are out on the town." Menkaure sighed. "Yeah, you know them well. Ever since Matilda showed up, Cacnea has been taking her to different clubs and even to the Drunken Clamperl like tonight. He probably didn't see me as he even got the little a bit tipsy because she wasn't brooding as she sang a bad tune into the karaoke machine. They never seem to invite me anymore on their little night outs. But forget them for now." The two pokemon migrate upstairs to Menkaure's room, passing by a cream-colored room and a very dark room, obviously Cacnea's and Matilda's rooms, respectively. Finally they came upon the Lilac colored room that Menkaure called her haven. In her room was a computer and a few windows, a bed that was very big for a Zangoose, and a picture of the group at the camping trip. Upon entering the room, they held their paws together
"That camp was so full of fond memories. Oh I wish we could go back. All those things we did together there. How much we hung out. And look at us wrestling in the water on top of those two hunks..." said the Alakazam as she began blushing, noticing that she was holding paws with her friend and enemy all at once. It was a bit confusing for her, but all she could remember right then was that they were friends still. "Times have changed but I'm glad to find this friendship again. We have to remember that regardless of our paths, we must remain friends... and close rivals too," said Allie, smiling and drawing closer to Menkaure.
"I already know we can stay friends... but that doesn't mean I'm going easy on you either..." said Menkaure as she looked at Allie, just inches from her face. Allie, in a fury of blushing leans in for a kiss. She startled herself and began apologizing but Menkaure took her back and started kissing her softly. Allie, shocked and relieved, started to stroke through her head fur. After for what seemed an eternity of bliss, Menkaure broke the kiss and fell back on the bed. Playfully, the sexy zangoose beckoned her friend to come to the bed. "I can't let our rivalry get in the way of our friendship. I wanna do this before our rivalry gets too great..." whined Menkaure.
Allie joined Menkaure on the bed and began to play with her friend's furry tits, rubbing them in a circular motion, tweaking the nipple every once in a while. Eventually, Allie started suckling on the right breast while still playing with the other. Menkaure moaned in the pleasure she was receiving from her friend and smiled. "I'm so happy about this. I want to forget all about this tournament and about what's been going on for now... Do you want too as well?" Menkaure reached for Allie's snatch and noticed it was wet. "I guess that is a yes." Allie shuddered as Menkaure began to stroke her pussy, playing with the pink lips and scratching the nub softly. The psychic type felt this sensation and responded by picking up speed, licking and sucking both tits in succession, tweaking them and causing gasps to come from Menkaure's mouth. "You enjoying it?" said Allie, pushing against Menkaure's claw while worshipping her breasts. Menkaure slipped her claw back into Allie's watering pussy sticking two digits in, rubbing the sides of her canal. Allie writhed in pleasure as she stopped sucking her friend's breast to moan. Her muscles reacted on their on dragging the zangoose's claws deeper. "I see you have been working out lately," said Menkaure is a lustful voice. Allie nodded and resumed her ministrations on the furry breasts in front of her.
After what seemed like an eternity of bliss, Allie stops, panting heavily. "You are getting wet; let me help you with that..." Before Menkaure gets a chance to respond, Allie psychically moves her lover flat on the bad and straddles her body in the 69 position. The psychic pokemon gave the swollen lips of her friend quick licks. Menkaure squeals in delight at the sensation, it being pleasant unlike her recently ended sessions with Malachi. This was tender and loving...something she didn't want to end, but obviously knowing something like this will probably never happen again. Allie read her mind and smiled. "Who knows... maybe we won't be enemies in the end? But, I think Chan would not be up for this happening too often." Menkaure blushed then set her lips to Allie's snatch inhaling the scent before plunging her muzzle in. Allie, who seems more skilled in this art grinds into Menkaure's maw as she methodically finger her tunnels and nibble on her clit. Allie pulled her paw to her mouth and tasted her rival's juices.
Menkaure groaned in pleasure, pulling her muzzle away from Allie's pussy. "Oh yeah... Mmmm... Like that." She laid back letting her beautiful friend do the work. Allie tickled her clit eliciting a wail of pleasure from Menkaure. "You taste good, Menkaure...not foul. I see you eat good foods." It seemed that she didn't hear that because she was too much in ecstasy to feel embarrassed. All Menkaure could say was "Oh...oh... oooooohhhh..." She grabbed Allie's waist and licked her cunt furiously, trying to get in sync with the pleasure she felt. "I'm going ... to ... oooohh...enjoy this... Now don't go... oh that's good...oh... easy on me just because we're ...oh...friends," said Allie as Menkaure attended to her pussy once again. "We're suppose to be rivals," said Menkaure in a half-joking manner.
Allie laughed as she rubbed Menkaure's clit. "I am going to make you cum first." With that, she stuck her tongue in the zangoose's hot canal licking the G-spot quite easily. Wanting to not be outdone and out of pure lust, put her tongue inside the alakazam's cavern and moved her tongue all around inside and sucking up all her juices. But for her attempts, Allie was certainly more talented. "AGH! Not... If I... Oh.... Make you first..." said Menkaure panting.
In pleasure, Allie moaned inside her pussy in pure pleasure and continued to lick her, going faster to keep up in pace with Menkaure. "Mmmm... Oh yeah..." she moaned as she kept up her quick pace feeling her own orgasm approaching. Allie sensed this and moved two of her fingers into Menkaure's tunnel to join her tongue in stimulating her canal and licking her fingers to get any of her honey when she could. Menkaure threw in the white flag and wanted to come. Her fluids coat Allie's face and hands and leak onto the bed as it sprays out of her pussy, Menkaure writhing in ecstasy
.
Allie smiled to herself, allowing the cum to spill all over her face. "(pant) Oh ... its feels so good and warm on my body..." Menkaure went to work on Allie's pussy, sticking three claws in at once, pumping in and out, and waiting for the psychic type to give her the gift of delicious vaginal fluids. Luckily, she didn't have to wait long. Allie's body trembled as a rush of pleasure filled her body and she sprayed her cum all over Menkaure's body. The horny pokemon licked what she could off her body leaving her face covered. "That was indescribable."
Allie sat up and cleaned herself off. "I don't think anyone else can know about this besides my mate, of course. I tell him everything." Menkaure looked at her wondering why she wasn't worried about telling Chan. "Just if you are wondering, Chan predicted this." Menkaure couldn't help but blush a bit from. "How do we keep it a secret from everyone else? No one saw us, anyway" Allie smiled softly and hugged her friend. "You need to get your muzzle cleaned off; I think your rookies are back. I will teleport from here. Friends for ever?"
"Friends for ever, Allie." Menkaure rushed into the bathroom to clean off her face as Alakazam focused her mind and teleported out of the compound. Menkaure smiled as she watched Allie scurry around looking for a Xatu transport. Best friends...best rivals...
Sandshrew: Hello again. I am Sandshrew the freshman in for the duties of Celia the Clefable who has ditched me *ow, okay sorry Celia* in this press box. We saw such a weird display of power and darkness just now as Yin and Pikachu fought each other. Who knows what crazy battles will take place here in this stadium. For those history buffs here and for a lum berry, what was the former name of the Pokemon Skills Center before it was acquired by the PRISM Institute?
Soon, a Spinda rushed into the room shouting the answer in its natural slurred cute tongue. "SO....AFAT" he said so that it sounded like "SO FAT". Unfortunately, he was staring at Celia who was right in front of him. "What did you call me?" she shouted, enraged at the hapless Spinda. But the panda pokemon smiled at her and began to dance. "Why I oughta... dance." The Spinda used the opportunity to take the berry from Sandshrew who just tossed it to him.
Sandshrew: That's right. The SOAFAT was the training center that used to be on this island before it was bought and added to the new sets of complexes being built on the island. That's all for now. Allie and Menkaure will fight at 9pm tonight, followed by Reika and Connie at Midnight.
Sandshrew turned off the mic and went into an uproar watching Celia dance in confusion. "Serves you right for jumping to conclusions, Ms. Celia." Even though it seemed funny, he wondered how that Spinda did it so effectively and why she was still in the confusion. So what's your name, little guy? At this, the spinda got irate and talked in a high-pitched kid's voice. "Damn you, I am older than you. Got that buddy!" suddenly talking without the slur. However, he wasn't the bit threatening. "My name is Nisix jackass and I assure you I'll crush you in battle. You are such a puss for not participating in this contest."
The shrew rolled his eyes and pointed out that it's only for people in those groups. "Whatever puny shrew, I'll destroy you," shouted the spinda as he stomped out. Sandshrew couldn't stop cracking up after that.
Rebirth of a Friendship
Allie sat down in her room trying to transform into her anthro form. Even though she wasn't one of the evil experiments and bore no heart of darkness symbol on her body, it was still difficult for her. Her mind was still a cloud even for Chan's many attempts to help her relax. Malachi's abuse of her body was still fresh in her mind. She had told Chan immediately after Malachi began his rampage. Unlike his normal behavior, he felt it was more important to tend to his hurting wife instead of seeking revenge. A tear fell from her eyes as she looked in the mirror, cursing the day where she was captured by those scientists. Today was her birthday, but she was depressed.
Chan took care of all of her duties while she recuperated upstairs. "I really wish the kids didn't have to see her like this. We will have to tell them sooner or later before Abra cultivates his mind reading ability or Tyrogue becomes nosy. Yes, nip it in the bud now by..." His thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of the front doorbell. His kids came dashing in with Pikachu, who had bandages wrapped around her chest and a bow in her hands, all of them in their natural forms. "Are you doing better, Pikachu?" She sighed and sat down in the nearest chair. "I will be fine. The only thing that stings in the nasty three hit defeat I got... and after I seemed ahead of the game." Chan chuckled. "There is a wise saying... pay attention to what your enemy does in other fights. Now you guys give your presents to Mom. She needs a cheering up."
Pikachu looked at the box she carried in. "I wish I knew what was going on with the rockets at that point. I would have given her a heads up. I recall seeing Cacnea mope about the battle tourney the day it was announced. However, he loves to fight. That Menkaure character also intrigues me as weird, too. Luckily, I gathered all my data from Sandshrew and Eevee and figured that those two rockets were experiments. It is too bad I found that out after the fact." She looked at the bandages across her chest again. "You know Chan, I never thought I get that far with Yin." Chan chuckled at that. "You haven't seen the full normal Yin in action. But he isn't normal as he is. I am not sure why he hasn't burnt out from that...I know you have been collecting intel on that rage mode that all the experiments have. It can cause a pokemon to burn out as it did with the experiments 2-4. Pikachu, this whole cure the dark pokemon thing requires a partnership with some of the others. As of right now... we can't find the eggs. Can you find help, Pikachu?" The yellow mouse agrees and sat back in her chair.
Allie saw the door fly open and her kids rush in to hug her. "I have to snap out of it for these smiling angels; come on be happy." Abra was the first to dive into his mom's lap. "Mommy, Mommy, look what Tyrogue made, look what Tyrogue made!" The Tyrogue handed Allie a necklace of colorful shards and crystals. Abra then pulled out a large painting of her and Chan walking along the beach at sunset. In the background of the picture were wingulls flying about, chasing Tyrogue about as he had a few shards in his hand. "I hope that you like it mom," said the Abra in his most cute tone he could manage. She grew very quiet and just tightly hugged her kids, a tear streaking from her cheek "I love you guys so much. Thank you for the gifts.
Pikachu went up next with the box she carried in. It was very difficult to carry with its sheer width. "Hey Dr. Allie... happy birthday. I really hope you are doing better." Alakazam psychically lifted the box and placed it on her bed. "Thank you for the gift Pikachu. I am sorry that you couldn't prevail over Yin." Pikachu smiled weakly. "I'm glad I'm still around." Pikachu took the kids and left, headed to the hospital for a visit with Reika.
Chan came up once the others left. He kissed her softly and took a seat next to her on the bed. "My love, I am so sorry I couldn't protect you," he said in a deeply caring tone, tears running down his cheek. He quickly hid his face, suddenly feeling embarrassed. Allie stroked his head, crying a little. "There was nothing you could have done to stop it. You couldn't see it happening. I know you were anxious because I could feel your heart racing." The hitmonchan lifted his eyes and looked into his lover's eyes. "It wasn't that I couldn't see you... it was that I could feel your pain. We have a bond that can't be broken by some sandstorm. For my gift I give you three things: my loyalty forever until the end of time, a pendant of Tao from Goldenrod, and a friend. Allie looked at him wondering what he was talking about. He got off his knees and opened the door revealing a female anthro Zangoose figure, blushing and carrying an open box of stuff. With that, Chan left the two in the room to catch up.
Allie stuttered in amazement. It was Menkaure, but she seemed normal again. She was smiling and actually coming to visit. "Men... kaure? You are visiting? You haven't visited in a long time. We haven't even had a one-on-one conversation in ages, ever since we were freed from the facility by the police. It wasn't a good day for Menkaure from what she could remember. The one who saved her... her love...she rejected him...too many demons for both of them to deal with. Allie at least found her mate in the whole chaos. Menkaure sat down and tried to lighten the situation. "Before the experiments, we were the best of friend. Those people took that and many other things from me. I am sorry for what happened afterwards. I am sorry for fighting you in that cramped cell and listening to the scientists in my dark haze. It was hard to control because I couldn't show emotions. I am sorry for forcing you into your rage mode. You killed one of those scientists when you went into that mode..." Menkaure stopped talking as Allie began to sniffle.
"I am sorry for all of that. I brought a tape and memories of happier days before the return trip from the Lake of Rage. We can look over them later after the battle. I really want to be your friend once again...I am really..." Allie cuts her off with a hug. "It's okay, but you do realize that by technicality, we are enemies." Menkaure nosed Allie while in the embrace. "It's ok, I never said I was going to go easy." Allie laughed for the first time today. They sat down and looked through one of the albums from that day. There were pictures of them wrestling, swimming, eating, playing games, playing tricks on Yin and a Ninetales from the past... so many friends that are no longer around for that day was the last day for may of them. "We should probably look earlier for more happy times..." said Allie in a solemn state. "I am glad at least one of my friends is back in my life." Menkaure smiled at her and left. "See ya on the battlefield. Winner buys the food at dinner."
"Sure," said Allie. "I know I will be ordering tonight and don't you doubt it." Menkaure waved as she left. "Eh, I have the money to pay; after all, I know you will mess up in the battle giving the edge I need."
Prodigy
Menkaure walked back to base feeling very happy that she had recovered a friend.
May the result of the battle never change our relationship. She began to think of a strategy to fight Allie as hard as possible without sending her to the hospital. Up ahead was the great Team Rocket House. The outside of the house looked untouched as if a certain cactus boy hadn't done his job. "God, Cacnea, are you willing to ruin your chance for the naming ceremony like that. If the inside of that house isn't clean, you can't be nominated" "Damn, I will have to put a foot down." She opened the door to the house and saw that it was... spotless. Not a single speck of dust anywhere. She looked through the rooms, seeing nothing there. Then she came upon a dark room with no lights and apparently a figure standing, facing away from the door.
It was an avian female, younger than Cacnea. She appeared to be looking around the room, scanning her head with her rigid beak. Murkrow morph had a feathery crown of hair that made Menkaure think of witch tales. There was so much information about this morphic Murkrow and so little about her method. Like the boss said, she was a prodigy. She is the youngest pokemon to ever get a naming ceremony. However, instructors can't stand her because she mindfucks. It isn't a psychic mindfucking, but just the creepy nature of her actions and her brooding. Her birth name is Sunshine, but she prefers to be called Matilda. Menkaure was considering all the rumors as the avian turned around to face her, her dark purple eyes seemingly glaring into her soul. Menkaure couldn't look away from those big dark purple eyes. Finally, the Murkrow closed them, smiling to herself. "I see that you are a bit different from the other instructors and trainers I have been with. I see you are good in heart."
Menkaure took a second to digest this idea and gather her thoughts. "Hello, I am Menkaure and welcome to the Team Rocket Training Facility of PRISM. Glad to meet you, Sunshine." The Murkrow winced at that and looked at Menkaure, her eyes now fluctuating into different shades of purple. "I am Matilda, not Sunshine, not ever Sunshine!" Menkaure sighed. "You are Sunshine until you lighten up. This is not very serious business here... I just got upgraded to leader here and need to figure out my team before I decide to make a full regimen. So until then Sunny, that is your name." The zangoose's playful tone flew right over Matilda's head as she seethed with anger.
Soon, Cacnea ran into the room. "Okay Matilda, your room is read... oh hi Menk!" Menkaure hugged Cacnea. "Hi there, and guess what, I will nominate you for your naming ceremony. You did a good job here." Cacnea bowed in appreciation then turned to the angered Murkrow. "What's up with Matilda?" Menkaure laughed. "We are going to have so much fun. Oh and one more thing... don't mindfuck with me when I sleep tonight. I already know that is what you do. Practice will be high for tomorrow, phase two of my plan will launch during the finals whether or not I win tonight." Matilda bowed to Cacnea in appreciation for the room and scowled at Menkaure before heading to her room.
"Have you seen her room? It's all goth," said Cacnea. "Whatever, you got a battle to go to and I have a new trainee to show the campus nightlife to." Menkaure gestured him over and took his fake ID. "Heh, go ahead and take it. I'll make more."
Vengeance is Mine
Reika sat in the room staring at her ailing love's eyes, wishing to restore his soul somehow. Recently, he has been having recurring nightmares as his time wore thin. "I got an appointment for you, TK, after the finals." The Croconaw didn't respond, still buried in self-disdain because of his lying. Reika looked over at her love wondering what was wrong. "Is something the matter, TK?" He shrugged.
"I will seek vengeance on Connie for doing this to you," said Reika under her breath. She didn't notice that someone walked into the room. "Hello Reika. Hello TK. How are you feeling today?" Reika looked up and saw the Altaria Doctor checking TK's vitals and reducing the amount of painkillers by a lot after checking the vitals. "Sheesh... he doesn't need the vitals and he will need to be checked out of here soon because he doesn't have any serious physical problems." Takeru looked up at the doctor in horror. "Why would you do that to me?" The Altaria pointed out the window to another building. "He needs to go there for specialist help. We need this bed for incoming patients."
Reika nodded and helped the nurses move her love over to the new building. This building looked similar to the hospital that they were just in, except the workers weren't Altaria this time. All of them were various fairy-type pokemon except for a silver colored large pokemon going through medical files. "Is that Bawek?" Reika asked one of the Altaria helping her move Takeru to his new room. "It sure is. He is the greatest asset in our hospital complex. A true master of medicine and technology, he offered his services to TK, whose problem is perplexing to most other doctors." Reika smiled for once. "You may be finally getting healed. But that still won't save Connie from what is coming to her." Singular in thought, Reika kissed TK goodbye for now, ready to fight.
TK just stared at his love wondering what was going on in her head. The medical metagross simply sighed as he administered several tests. "Ah, I figured out your problem. You are suffering from Ditto's Soulytis, or DS." TK looked perplexed as he tried to figure out what the doctor meant. "I see you are confused. I am sorry to say, but pretending to be a Croconaw instead of the Ditto you happen to be is bound to lyse your soul. If you don't manage to change back or get to a shaman although strictly advised against, you will certainly die." TK shuddered and knew he had to figure it out soon or else perish. Dr. Bawek thought quietly to himself as he left the room. "I think I found one of the eggs... I could feel the bitterness flowing through..."
En route to the stadium, Reika came across Pikachu sitting quietly in the field in her natural form, stargazing with Allie's two kids. "How are things Reika?" asked Pikachu in a caring tone. "I know that you are in a rage right now. I really need you to be careful when you fight, not just for yourself, but realize that killing is discouraged. More importantly, I have questions on TK. Why is just his soul withering away? Where is the physical damage he should have sustained? One more thing I noticed is that you seem darker recently, only meditating on revenge and behaving like the nutcase leaders of every single team." Reika looked down at the pikachu, flashing her eyes bright red at the reclined Pikachu. "What? I told you what I thought. Go on and flare your rage somewhere else." The anthro Ninetales made the around her very hot, making Pikachu and the two kids sweat. "Ma'am, that is very hot... please be forgiving Ms. Pikachu of her obnoxious thoughts." Reika smiled at the kids and left Pikachu drenched in sweat. "What the hell was that? It didn't feel like a normal fire."
Good Friends through It All
Sandshrew: We are rearing to go in the stadium. We had seen a great battle here just yesterday with Yin edging out over Pikachu in a hot battle. Tonight, we will draw a close to the Semi-Finals with a double header. First up is Allie of the KBI and Menkaure of Team Rocket.
Allie was out and ready to fight. She bore somewhat big hips that managed to fit her shapely body. She had C cup breasts but no muscle tone because it really is impossible with alakazams because of muscle decay. The whiskers that would be on her face were gone now, as were her spoons that fused into her body and appeared as symbols in her palms. She stood at 6' even. Upon seeing Menkaure enter in her anthro form, she blushed a bit at the stronger, younger looking body of her opponent.
Elliot the referee went to the two battlers. "How are you lovely ladies doing? Remember, no items and no cheating." Menkaure and Allie giggle at the referee who quickly examined his predicament and rushed off field to hide it. "Wow, he was looking very hot and embarrassed." Soon, the ref came back, bearing a loin cloth and launched the flamethrower to start the battle.
Allie dashed at blinding speed at her zangoose opponent. "Ice Punch, Thunderpunch Double Strike!" She formed an ice punch in her right hand and a fire punch in her left hand. Her fists flowed with great energy as she tried to strike Menkaure with them; but to no avail as the zangoose maneuvered her slender body around the attacks. Frustrated with the punching, Allie launched a simple Psychic attack to blast her backwards. "Man, you have been practicing," said Allie, complimenting Menkaure's dodging ability.
Menkaure smiled and started up her volley of slash attacks, her arms looking blurry as she tried to strike the alakazam morph. Magically, Menkaure seem to be missing even though Allie was bigger than her. "It's those psychic powers of yours, of course. I hope you are ready for this. Shadow Ball!" Allie couldn't dodge it fully at took a bit of damage from it.
"This won't do," said Allie panting a bit.
"I know what you mean," replied Menkaure, also notably tired.
"Wanna go it just like old times?"
"Eh, sure, can't hurt can it?"
Sandshrew: Are they conversing? This is something unheard of in the history of the Salac Tournament in its two years. Please go back to fighting...
Allie returned to her starting position and began focusing all her energy, calming her mind and increasing her special powers. "Ah, so that's the way you wanna do it!" beamed Menkaure as she began her Swords Dance.
Sandshrew: O, I see, they want to finish this at their full strengths!
Allie finished her Calm mind technique and rushed at Menkaure with her special technique, Triple Element Punch. The volley of fire, ice, and thunder punches all missed as Menkaure continued her swords dance through it all. "You missed Allie, now it is time up for you in this battle." Menkaure began her volley of rapid slash attacks which managed not to even land. "Menk, you forgot that my mind is entirely focused. I can't lose!" Allie launched a psychic ball at Menkaure, but she countered with shadow ball that dissipated the attack. "Well, when all else fails, we try something new," said Allie as she jumped back into her starting position. "Heh, then this is it then, see you in the winner's circle," retorted Menkaure.
The two began to run at each other, Allie bearing an Ice punch and Menkaure bearing a slash attack. The entire crowd could see were two blurs approaching each other at an incredible velocity. Soon the two blurs passed through each other and the two anthro pokemon materialized. Both of them were panting, but Menkaure was on one of her knees. "That smarted," she said. "I can still feel the frigid nature of that ice punch. I still got a piece of you though. It was a good fight."
"I didn't get the proper angle on that hit," said Allie, still standing on her two feet. "Tonight we will eat, your treat of course." Menkaure nodded then heard a thump behind her as Allie fell on the floor, out cold. Menkaure picked up Allie and carried her to the medics. "It's ok, I just knocked the wind out of her. I bet she didn't expect it."
Sandshrew: What an interesting finish, friends through it all. Now here comes the next battle in five minutes. And guess what, we will have a guest announcer today: Kudzco the Shiftry and leader of the HIA, which is in the process of moving to a new facility.
Kudzco: Let's get it on!
Vengeance is Mine!
Reika paced back and forth, just as she had been prone to doing as of recent. Who knew that the sleepy-eyed apparently empty-headed Vulpix they met on the first day could express such bitter anger. The time had come for revenge. Something about the soul thing still bothered her but it didn't matter. She would do all she could to help make TK better. "Connie will rest on this battle field for the last time."
Pikachu once again came upon Reika, this time not bearing the nasty attitude that she had exhibited to Reika last time. "Reika... please realize that vengeance doesn't solve a thing... how can I make you understand?" Reika seemed to ignore every single word Pikachu said, stuck in her dark funk of her one-track vengeance plot. Slowly, a symbol began emerging from Reika's forehead of her large 6'4" kitsune body. Pikachu noted this. "Reika, go to the bathroom and use this to cover up that symbol on your head. But first, read it." Finally, Reika responded and grabbed the dye. She looked into the mirror and to her shock, that evil symbol she heard about in rumors concerning Yin, Menkaure and Nido, was on her now. "Oh, shit... I can't let people see this." She applied the dye so that it was hidden and went back to the stadium huffing and puffing and ready to take down Connie.
Connie meanwhile had had a glorious day, taking care of Yin who was in the hospital, recovering from exhaustion. Eevee and she didn't quite see eye to eye, but what mattered at this point was Yin's health. Of course, Eevee was still in a sort of mental confusion of the nature of the relationships on this team. "So, Connie, how was it?" Eevee asked solemnly during one of their breaks from taking care of Yin. Connie was taken aback by the suddenly probing question. "Eevee... I'm sorry, but I have fallen in love with him."
Eevee trembled when she heard this from Connie's mouth. "But you are Connie the thief who was the very same Sneasel who sole my former master's money and made life hell for me. You are that same creature that went from camp to camp of pokemon societies taking what she needed and abandoning them in their times of need." Connie was shaken by that outburst of information. "Why were you looking me up?" shouted Connie. Eevee trembled with anger as they stood at the same height in their anthro forms looking into each other's eyes with anger. "I don't trust you and I expect you to disappear sooner or later. I love Yin, too."
Connie shook her head. "Eevee, what is wrong with you?" asked Connie, sighing inwardly. In her heart, she knew that until recently, she was going to do the same thing to Yin until she found herself getting attached to the dark sarcastic pokemon. She even gave him the rare privilege of making love to her. "I love him and that won't change ever. I plan on being his mate. I don't know why, but I just enjoyed being with him, enjoying his charm. In a way, you were right, but this time, I have found someone to love and to be attached too. I won't be leaving." Eevee's eyes welled up in tears as she hid her face and left the hospital. "Wait, Eevee... god why did she have to cry about it... couldn't she tell?" The manyula ran to get to the stadium on time. "Sigh... now to face the girl who wants revenge on me. Pathetic person she is, seemingly always a one-track person."
In the audience were two pokemon, looking through filtered binoculars to find a special symbol. They appeared to many others spectators as a strange duo: a large metagross morph and a small Spinda morph. "Hey Bawek, still looking? I found Yin bearing that symbol," said the high pitched Nisix the Spinda. "We aren't going to hurt them are we? I cannot do that according to my Hippocratic Oath. Come on, Nisix, you couldn't even do anything anyway." Nisix scowled at the metagross and turned back to the field. "By the way, I checked out that Ninetales girl and I think she is the one our boss is looking for. She has the symbol and all of his looks, just effeminate." The spinda stopped looking as he saw a vendor come by. "Get me a Berry Juice." The vendor handed Nisix the drink. "Here you go, little guy. Where is your mum so that she can pay for that?" asked the vendor asking in earnest. Nisix flipped out and threw the guy down the many steps. "I will destroy anyone who insults me that way. Now good day." The spinda jumped down on the hurt vendor and thrashed him senseless.
On the field, Elliot launched his flamethrower and the battle began. Connie came into that battle confident that type wouldn't matter with experience. Reika's eyes glowed in the dark of the stadium before they switched on the lights. Connie quietly went into action starting off with a slash attack. Reika avoided it and tried to strike the moving target with Hypnosis. But with Connie all over the place, she couldn't focus on her. "Screw the hypnosis. Overheat attack!" An explosion of heat emanated from her body, griddling the ground and giving her a bright blue aura of fire. She expanded the dome of energy to also hit Connie dealing massive damage at the cost of energy. Reika cackled as she looked over the steaming dark type.
Connie got up and decided against the speed strategy. The Manyula flipped back and began to close her eyes, whispering things that for some reason Reika could hear. "You think you can whisper me to death? I'll make sure you have a painful end!" shouted Reika. Suddenly, the voices got louder in her head. "Aaahhh! Turn them off!" shouted the suddenly dazed ninetales, not even being able to hear herself think. "Heh, you can't think now, not that you really did any before." This insult began to echo in her head.
Kudzco: It appears that Connie has used her special technique called Torture Alpha. It is a combination of Taunt and Torment that leaves the enemy helpless. This attack requires good concentration and because of a certain battler's cloudy mind, she cannot win in this case.
Sandshrew: Very... insightful there... (off the mic) "No dropping hints, ok?"
Kudzco didn't take the slighting very well as the skybox blew up. Sandshrew slumped on the floor knocked out cold by Kudzco's Nuke special. "Now, I will be hosting the rest of this battle."
Bawek looked up at the skybox. "Another experiment spotted, though not one of the evil ones." Nisix grumbled as he continued to look, sitting on top of the guy he knocked out.
The onslaught of quick attacks plus the mind confusion was getting to be too much for Reika. Soon, she had enough and wanted to risk another overheat, but didn't have enough energy to do it. Kudzco was siphoning advice here and there in his description of the field, trying to get Reika to open her eyes. As soon as she does, she sees Connie rushing at her about to pull off her beat down technique, but that is when the tables turned as the ninetales tackled the manyula, breaking the Torture technique. Connie looked at the Ninetales as the blue aura surrounded her form, but this time, blue balls with demon faces formed on her outstretched tails. "What is that?" whimpered Connie.
"Oh this, this is the beginning of your end," replied Reika in an unearthly tone and the dye starting to burn up. Luckily, the heat of her aura prevented the sign from being seen except from the very front... something that Connie saw. "Wait, you are an experiment! Please spare me." Connie turned and ran for the boundary of the field but Reika still hit her with the Demon Will-o-Wisp. Connie screeched in pain as the fireballs didn't burn her but enter her body, burning intensely on the inside before she ran out of the field. Yin watched in horror as he saw her get attacked like that. "Christ, it's one of the eggs..."
Kudzco: Reika is the winner!
TK watched this battle from a television monitor in his room. "She is becoming her dark form...It is my fault too." He sighed and looked at his blotched pink and blue body. He grew tired of forcing the form and but had problems changing into his real form, a ditto.
Memories of a Lifetime
The two ladies strolled into the house laughing about the sights they had seen at the Drunken Clamperl. "That was a great evening, I wish we could have done this earlier..." said Allie. Menkaure reached into the box and pulled out a tape of stuff they did at night at the camp. "Now it is time for the videotape of memories." The two friends smiled at each other and put the tape in.
"Aah, adjust the camera right, Menkaure!" said a younger kadabra Allie.
"Why don't you fix up the camera? I can't handle human technology as well as you," whined the young Menkaure. Immediately afterwards, both of them started arguing behind the scenes. "Why am I the camera lady? You should be back there." Allie's laughter could be heard in between Menkaure's complaints. Soon, a young absol morph agreed to take the position of cameraman. "Thanks, Yin!" shouted both the ladies. "He he, no problem Menkaure!"
"What was that, Yin?" said Allie in a playfully angry tone. "Didn't I say thank you?"
"Roll tape, Yin," said Menkaure.
"Menkaure, you left it on..." said Yin, grumbling.
"Come on, Menk,"
"I'm sorry, sheesh, now where is Miku? He needs to come over here and bring Luna and Chan over."
"Ok, now it is time for Karaoke!"
With that, Menkaure and Allie quickly shut it off. "I am not so sure if I want to hear bad singing tonight." Menkaure laughed at this comment and plopped in a second video label "Swimming contest!" Allie began to sweat... this was not the best video she made.
"Ok, here is our lineup of swimmers in the girls' competition. All they have to do is be the first to cross this lake and they win." The person behind the camera this time sounded like Miku on the other side. "Alright, here are our competitors. In lane one is the beautiful and perhaps athletic Luna the Umbreon. In lane two is the brainiac of the competitors, Allie the Kadabra. In lane three is the exquisitely hot Menkaure the Zangoose. And finally, in lane four is the adorable who is swimming against most others' advice is Jo the Mawile. And with Elliot, our Ref-in-training, let's start this race!"
The ladies all dove into the water and started their advance across the lake. Elliot was watching closely to make sure no one crossed their lanes and that no one was drowning. At the halfway point, none of the positions had changed with all of them in a slowing first place. Pretty soon, Allie's weak muscles gave up and she flailed about in the water. Elliot tossed her a life preserver and laughed a bit as he had Chan pull her to shore. Soon, Jo burst forth with great speed despite her dragging body and went ahead of Luna and Menkaure by 100 meters before sinking into the water. In a minute she emerged from the water pouting as she grinded a magikarp in her large mouth. Finally the remaining two swimmers cramped up but luckily were in shallow waters. "Uh, Jo...isn't that painful for the magikarp." She swallowed the magikarp whole and stomped away in a fury. Elliot declared the swim a fail as no one reached the other side.
"Damn, I did worse than a Mawile..." muttered Allie.
"I didn't even finish..." said Menkaure.
"One more tape in this box..."
"Are you sure you want to watch that one Allie?"
"I'm sure...no one is in the house so if it is something objectionable, it doesn't matter."
Menkaure got up and inserted the tape. "Remember camp when we tried out for that club and they asked us to masturbate together in front of them?" asked Allie.
Menkaure smiled a bit as the scene began rolling. "He he. Yes I never thought I could actually think I could go through with it. But... when they watched us... it turned me on more...I was a flirtatious pokemon then." Allie laughed a bit at the initial scene where she and Menkaure sat down on the bed in their anthro forms too nervous to touch each other. "I was frightened personally, until I felt the caress of your paw on me, Menk, as if you were telling me that there is nothing to worry about..." Menkaure brushes against Allie gently with her claws, oddly turned on by watching them in the past. "In the end it felt great, did it not? I mean..." Allie blushed as this comment as her friend looked totally embarrassed. "Yes it did. I didn't even care that we didn't get into the sorority."
"Personally I was more interested in how many boners we gave the guys that heard about it," said the zangoose, chuckling at the absurdity of the comment. "Well... that was the last tape... once again, thanks for walking me home, Allie. Do you wanna come to my room and hang out for a bit and see the Team Rocket stuff?" Allie thought about it for a moment. "Sure. I don't see any sign of your rookies anywhere. Guess they are out on the town." Menkaure sighed. "Yeah, you know them well. Ever since Matilda showed up, Cacnea has been taking her to different clubs and even to the Drunken Clamperl like tonight. He probably didn't see me as he even got the little a bit tipsy because she wasn't brooding as she sang a bad tune into the karaoke machine. They never seem to invite me anymore on their little night outs. But forget them for now." The two pokemon migrate upstairs to Menkaure's room, passing by a cream-colored room and a very dark room, obviously Cacnea's and Matilda's rooms, respectively. Finally they came upon the Lilac colored room that Menkaure called her haven. In her room was a computer and a few windows, a bed that was very big for a Zangoose, and a picture of the group at the camping trip. Upon entering the room, they held their paws together
"That camp was so full of fond memories. Oh I wish we could go back. All those things we did together there. How much we hung out. And look at us wrestling in the water on top of those two hunks..." said the Alakazam as she began blushing, noticing that she was holding paws with her friend and enemy all at once. It was a bit confusing for her, but all she could remember right then was that they were friends still. "Times have changed but I'm glad to find this friendship again. We have to remember that regardless of our paths, we must remain friends... and close rivals too," said Allie, smiling and drawing closer to Menkaure.
"I already know we can stay friends... but that doesn't mean I'm going easy on you either..." said Menkaure as she looked at Allie, just inches from her face. Allie, in a fury of blushing leans in for a kiss. She startled herself and began apologizing but Menkaure took her back and started kissing her softly. Allie, shocked and relieved, started to stroke through her head fur. After for what seemed an eternity of bliss, Menkaure broke the kiss and fell back on the bed. Playfully, the sexy zangoose beckoned her friend to come to the bed. "I can't let our rivalry get in the way of our friendship. I wanna do this before our rivalry gets too great..." whined Menkaure.
Allie joined Menkaure on the bed and began to play with her friend's furry tits, rubbing them in a circular motion, tweaking the nipple every once in a while. Eventually, Allie started suckling on the right breast while still playing with the other. Menkaure moaned in the pleasure she was receiving from her friend and smiled. "I'm so happy about this. I want to forget all about this tournament and about what's been going on for now... Do you want too as well?" Menkaure reached for Allie's snatch and noticed it was wet. "I guess that is a yes." Allie shuddered as Menkaure began to stroke her pussy, playing with the pink lips and scratching the nub softly. The psychic type felt this sensation and responded by picking up speed, licking and sucking both tits in succession, tweaking them and causing gasps to come from Menkaure's mouth. "You enjoying it?" said Allie, pushing against Menkaure's claw while worshipping her breasts. Menkaure slipped her claw back into Allie's watering pussy sticking two digits in, rubbing the sides of her canal. Allie writhed in pleasure as she stopped sucking her friend's breast to moan. Her muscles reacted on their on dragging the zangoose's claws deeper. "I see you have been working out lately," said Menkaure is a lustful voice. Allie nodded and resumed her ministrations on the furry breasts in front of her.
After what seemed like an eternity of bliss, Allie stops, panting heavily. "You are getting wet; let me help you with that..." Before Menkaure gets a chance to respond, Allie psychically moves her lover flat on the bad and straddles her body in the 69 position. The psychic pokemon gave the swollen lips of her friend quick licks. Menkaure squeals in delight at the sensation, it being pleasant unlike her recently ended sessions with Malachi. This was tender and loving...something she didn't want to end, but obviously knowing something like this will probably never happen again. Allie read her mind and smiled. "Who knows... maybe we won't be enemies in the end? But, I think Chan would not be up for this happening too often." Menkaure blushed then set her lips to Allie's snatch inhaling the scent before plunging her muzzle in. Allie, who seems more skilled in this art grinds into Menkaure's maw as she methodically finger her tunnels and nibble on her clit. Allie pulled her paw to her mouth and tasted her rival's juices.
Menkaure groaned in pleasure, pulling her muzzle away from Allie's pussy. "Oh yeah... Mmmm... Like that." She laid back letting her beautiful friend do the work. Allie tickled her clit eliciting a wail of pleasure from Menkaure. "You taste good, Menkaure...not foul. I see you eat good foods." It seemed that she didn't hear that because she was too much in ecstasy to feel embarrassed. All Menkaure could say was "Oh...oh... oooooohhhh..." She grabbed Allie's waist and licked her cunt furiously, trying to get in sync with the pleasure she felt. "I'm going ... to ... oooohh...enjoy this... Now don't go... oh that's good...oh... easy on me just because we're ...oh...friends," said Allie as Menkaure attended to her pussy once again. "We're suppose to be rivals," said Menkaure in a half-joking manner.
Allie laughed as she rubbed Menkaure's clit. "I am going to make you cum first." With that, she stuck her tongue in the zangoose's hot canal licking the G-spot quite easily. Wanting to not be outdone and out of pure lust, put her tongue inside the alakazam's cavern and moved her tongue all around inside and sucking up all her juices. But for her attempts, Allie was certainly more talented. "AGH! Not... If I... Oh.... Make you first..." said Menkaure panting.
In pleasure, Allie moaned inside her pussy in pure pleasure and continued to lick her, going faster to keep up in pace with Menkaure. "Mmmm... Oh yeah..." she moaned as she kept up her quick pace feeling her own orgasm approaching. Allie sensed this and moved two of her fingers into Menkaure's tunnel to join her tongue in stimulating her canal and licking her fingers to get any of her honey when she could. Menkaure threw in the white flag and wanted to come. Her fluids coat Allie's face and hands and leak onto the bed as it sprays out of her pussy, Menkaure writhing in ecstasy
.
Allie smiled to herself, allowing the cum to spill all over her face. "(pant) Oh ... its feels so good and warm on my body..." Menkaure went to work on Allie's pussy, sticking three claws in at once, pumping in and out, and waiting for the psychic type to give her the gift of delicious vaginal fluids. Luckily, she didn't have to wait long. Allie's body trembled as a rush of pleasure filled her body and she sprayed her cum all over Menkaure's body. The horny pokemon licked what she could off her body leaving her face covered. "That was indescribable."
Allie sat up and cleaned herself off. "I don't think anyone else can know about this besides my mate, of course. I tell him everything." Menkaure looked at her wondering why she wasn't worried about telling Chan. "Just if you are wondering, Chan predicted this." Menkaure couldn't help but blush a bit from. "How do we keep it a secret from everyone else? No one saw us, anyway" Allie smiled softly and hugged her friend. "You need to get your muzzle cleaned off; I think your rookies are back. I will teleport from here. Friends for ever?"
"Friends for ever, Allie." Menkaure rushed into the bathroom to clean off her face as Alakazam focused her mind and teleported out of the compound. Menkaure smiled as she watched Allie scurry around looking for a Xatu transport. Best friends...best rivals...
