Story Notes:
For any confusion, these pokemon are feral in a seemingly natural/civil environment. A cross between. And more detail becomes evident as the story goes on.Also, as a big fan of DBZ and power-based things, this will have some minor swaying effect. Nothing like over 9000 references and kamehamehas, it still keeps the pokemon basis.
Coincedences
My nap lasted much longer than I expected. I didn't want to sleep right through the night, and I didnt.
The dream I had tonight was worse than the last. I was with my ex-girlfriend, just as I would have been a few months ago.
We were at her house, in her room, in her bed. She was laying against me, and i had my arms around her.
"I have a surprise for you." she said. She got up and went go leave the room. "I'll be right back." she said, with a playful tone. I laid there, waiting anxiously.
Suddenly her step-father came in, who was a sandslash. He had his spikes armed and he looked threatening. I covered myself up frantically, and cowered in fear.
She came up behind him and said, "That's him daddy! That's the boy who tried to rape me!"
He had an extremely angry look on his face now. "You're going to wish you hadn't done that, boy!" he practically screamed at me.
"No! There must be some mistake!" But my efforts were wasted. He turned around and shot hundreds of spikes that pierced almost every inch of my body, and i could feel myself fading away as my vision slowly disappeared into nothingness.

Once again I awoke from a horrific nightmare. Luckily there is no school today, so i'm not going to miss anything.
This time I was in a cold sweat, still on the couch. I found that had tears in my eyes. I started to cry a little.
I've been trying to forget about her for some time, and all the progress I've made on getting over it has been lost.
"*sniff*...I can't keep living like this...there has to be something I can do." My mom must've heard me crying, because she came down the stairs. The light flicked on and I looked up at her.
"Roy, honey are you alright?"
"N-no I guess I'm not alright." She ran over sat on the couch next to me.
I collapsed into her arms, my tears leaking likes waterfalls now.
"What's wrong honey?"
"*sniff*....I-I-I...just....miss her.....so much..." My words were harsh to understand. But she was my mother, she could always tell what i'm saying.
"It's okay, honey. I know what it's like. I still miss your father very much. We'll get through this ok?"
"I....sure hope so..."
"It's 3 in the morning, you'd better head on up to your room now, try and get some proper sleep ok?" I didn't say anything, but I stood up and slumped up to my room.
I lay awake for what must've been at least an hour, trying to think of a way to solve this. The only way i could think of, was to try and get another girlfriend. It seemed to be my only hope. I turned over, and slowly but surely fell back into slumber.
-
I didn't have a dream for the rest of the night, so it must've been one of the most normal mornings I've had in a while. I got up, out of bed.
I immediately went downstairs to find out what time it was. I'd like to know how long I actually slept. It turned out to be around 11 in the morning.
Mom was in the kitchen, as she usually is, always cleaning, or cooking, or something. She looked tired, though.
"Hey, mom...Sorry for waking you up last night." She looked over at me, and smiled a bit.
"It's ok honey, how was the rest of your sleep?" I went and sat down at the table.
"It was ok, no more bad dreams."
"Well, that's good to hear." She started to go back to doing whatever she was doing.
I got up, and walked over to the couch, and sat down. I picked up a small red ball off of the floor. I examined it a bit, cocking my head to one side a bit, without noticing. Then, I laid down on my back and started tossing it up and catching it.
While I was doing this I was trying to think about something other than that dream, or my girlfriend. The only other thing on my mind was what Bolt had tried pulling last night. It boggled my mind as to why he did it.
Perhaps he didn't know it's something you're only supposed to do with who you're in love with. Or maybe he does know, and thought since I was his brother and we were family, it would be ok too. He probably doesn't know the intimate, or sexual aspect of it.
Speaking of which, he came running down the stairs, and towards the door.
He yelled, "I'm going to my friend's house again today, mom!"
"Ok dear, be careful."
I almost panicked a bit, and forgot to catch the ball as it hit me right in the nose. Paying no mind to it, I jumped up.
"Whoa, hang on there Bolt." He was half way out the door when I stopped him.
"What's wrong, bro?" he asked.
"Is this the same friend as yesterday?"
"Yea, why?"
Mom peeked her around the corner. "What does it matter, dear?"
I paused. I wanted to stop him, and talk to him about it now, but I couldn't risk mom finding out.
"Umm, nothing. Just don't have to much fun, ok?" I said, trying not to reveal anything.
"I'm not sure what you mean by that, Roy. But ok." and he fled out the door. I went to go close it behind him, but mom stopped me and said she liked the cool air coming in.
I just went back to the couch, and continued what I was doing.
"If you're that bored Roy, why don't you go hang out with Tybalt?" Mom suggested.
"Actually, yea. That's not a bad idea." I said as I sat up.
His parents never minded me coming over, so I just left without notice.
"Bye, mom."
-
During the walk to Tybalt's house, I thought about how I'd try to get another girlfriend. I talked to myself as I walked, saying things like, "There has to be somebody" or, "I have to get over this."
Many other pokemon passing by were confused, and gave me weird looks. I paid no attention and kept going. Maybe if I asked Lilina at school, she might say yes.
Lilina was also a pikachu, she was nice to everybody, and everyone got along with her well. Her eyes were a beautiful shade of azure, I guess Tybalt isn't the only observant one. Everything about her was beautiful. Her fur, her ears, her face. I never bothered to ask her because I figured someone like her had already been taken.
I usually stare at my feet when I walk, but when I looked up, it was then that a vast string of coincedences happened.
Who do I see coming out of the corner store, but Lilina herself. I got excited and ran over to her.
"Hey Lilina, how's it going?"
She had an ice cream cone, I don't know why she would, it was nearing winter.
"Oh hi, Roy!" her voice was so alluring. "I was just getting some ice cream before they shut it down for the winter. How have you been?"
"Well, as ok as it gets, I've been having some bad dreams lately, and I can't seem to get to sleep at night."
"Oh no! That's terrible! Is there anything I can do?" she reminded me of myself, always quick to jump the gun, trying to help anyone as much as she can.
"Well...maybe." I felt myself blushing a bit. "I just...wanted to know....do you have a boyfriend?" and as a matter of fact, she does.
It just happened to be Hector, who just happened to be a Sandslash, well known for being the strongest, and meanest of the school. He came out of the store, following Lilina.
"Well, what do we have here? Are you hitting on my girl?" I shuddered in fright. He looked just like my murderer in my dream. Why would she be dating someone like him?
"I....uh....." He turned around and arms his spikes, it was that moment again. This couldn't get any worse than it was right now. I knew right then and there I was done for. And by yet another lucky chance, Tybalt's family happened to be at the store next door.
Tybalt spotted me in trouble and came flying at Hector with a vicsious mega punch. His aim was perfect, hitting him clean arcoss the side of his face. He stuck the landing perfect too, hitting the ground with a paw and on his feet.
Hector had fallen over, and didn't look like he was getting back up. I just stared, astonished. Lilina too, she had no idea what was happening. Tybalt grabbed my arm.
"C'mon, we gotta go! Later, Lilina!" he pulled me along and we ran back to meet up with his family, who were on their way walking home. I was speechless the whole way back, I couldn't believe it, he had never stood up for me like that before, and he's NEVER hit someone like that before either.
-
When we arrived at their home, I finally decided to talk, but he cut me off.
"What the hell were you thinking messing around with Hector?"
I just froze up. "W-well, I didn't mean to."
"What were you trying to do?"
"Well..." I looked around at the rest of his family, who were off doing their own things. "Come outside with me, I'll explain."
We went out into the backyard, where we usually play. I started explaining.
"Well, as you know, I've recently lost my girlfriend. I've been really depressed lately, and I just want someone to be around. You know, like someone that loves me? Family just doesn't seem to do it."
"Oh...but, you were trying with Lilina? Didn't you know she was with Hector?"
"Well, no..." I looked away.
I didn't really like to talk about my problems. It made me feel inferior. I'm so much more used to being above everyone else. I am good at almost everything I do, and I saw myself as a superior. I didn't brag, or gloat about it. It was just another thing I kept to myself.
"Thank you...." I said quietly.
"Pardon?" he didn't hear me.
"I said thank you, Tybalt....you know, for like....saving my life. Not that it has much of a purpose anyways..." I kept looking away, I almost started crying again.
Damn, I'm a weird 'chu. Mainly superior over all my peers, and confident in my own power, but sensitive, emotional, and kind to all others? Where does this all come from?
"Don't talk like that..." he said. He was trying to look at me, but I wouldn't let him. "C'mon Roy....don't be like that. You know I'm still your friend, right? I'm still here, and you know I will be."
Having him say that meant alot, I mean you'd think it isn't that big of a deal, but it really was, and it did help.
"I may have to come over a bit more often, I don't see you guys much." I wiped up my tears that were staring to form, and looked at him. My face was probably turning red from my sadness, but I didn't care right now.
"Being at home, It just has a feeling of sadness, depression, things are horrible. But, when i'm here, I don't think about all that, My mind is free, and I feel better. I hope you don't mind...I'm not trying to sound obsessive, or needy, or anything..."
"Of course I don't mind, my parents don't either. We all enjoy your company here."
I stood up. I tried to at least 'act' like I'm feeling better. I masked my feelings with a smile. "That's good. I'm glad. Now then, you're it!"
The dream I had tonight was worse than the last. I was with my ex-girlfriend, just as I would have been a few months ago.
We were at her house, in her room, in her bed. She was laying against me, and i had my arms around her.
