Chapter 1\ Winter.

Well I thought it was appropriate, as we now entered the next chapter of our lives together, to start another book, since the fighting was over, and the main theme of the previous book is now gone. Well I said I was going to start this book a few years after the events of the last, but this first chapter details events that happened during the weeks after we arrived at home. Life went by as normally as it could possibly be, of course, everyone now had to learn to live with pokemon and deal with them if neccesary. The economy was almost non existent, money had very little value, most people just traded to get what they want. The world was in a state of anarchy, as there was little left of the infrastructure to support a government with enough power to enforce the laws it had layed out. In other words, it was paradise, we kept to ourselves, nobody bothered with us, we were fairly well known as heros, and several people wanted to interview us, or my parents, or even my younger long after we arrived at home, I moved all my stuff from my parents house, into the once vacant house Phoebe and me decided to make our permanent home. We had our "real" wedding a few weeks later. Needless to say, we were the first human-pokemon couple to be married in history and that garnered alot of unwanted attention, to the point where some nat guard troops actually volunteered to be our body guards, it was a nice gesture, but we both thoughtfully declined, I guess, inside we were both sick of fighting, I now kept my guns in a vault inside our new house, with the m16 in the very back, occasionally we went hunting with them, and that was it. Most of our pokemon were kept in their balls unless needed, except for Mouser and HellBlade who were now allowed to wonder around outside, atleast during the day, we ended up getting collars for both of them so no one would mistake them for wild pokemon. We usually ended up returning HellBlade at night though, because he had a tendency to yell at the moon, and she insisted on returning mouser as well for fear that wild pokemon might try to eat him. I got another truck to replace the one I lost in Japan, and we kept it as a second car, mostly for winter, and for some rough roads nobody would dare to take the skyline on. Winter came a few weeks after our wedding, and with that, came snow, and hot chocolate, and long nights huddled together in a warm house on the couch in front of the tv. There still wasn't much on Tv, but I had a box of old vhs tapes and a few dvds as well. It was great fun to watch the tapes with her, I had a couple old episodes of pokemon, a few of the movies, and just lots of other cartoons and stuff. On dvd we had transformers, terminator, lots of random movies. Ya know, it feels so strange watching old episodes of pokemon, when a pokemon is snuggling you, I mean, back when I first got those tapes, I never once thought they could be real, but now they were real. Anyway, most of our nights that winter went like this, except for a few.

One night we heard a knock on the door.

Me: "You want to get it or should I?"

Phoebe: "I'll get it Cj."

Me: "Ok then."

She got up and walked over to the door it was snowing pretty hard outside. When she opened the door, Ciona was there .

Phoebe: "Ciona?"

Ciona: "Hi."

I couldn't believe it either.

Me: "Really?"

Ciona: "Can I come in? I know I was originally an ice type but I'm not anymore and now I'm freezing."

Phoebe: "Yeah cmon."

She looked pregnant? Diana's baby?

Phoebe: "When did you get pregnant?"

Ciona: "Diana lied, I was pregnant after all."

Phoebe: "How did you find us?"

Ciona: "Wasn't that hard, you guys being heros and all."

Me: "I told you not to talk to those reporters."

Phoebe: "Well cmon Cj, its not like they were going to go away on their own."

Me: "Yeah."

Me: "So anyway, Ciona what do you want?"

Phoebe: "Cj calm down."

Phoebe: "Can't you see she's almost ready?"

Me: "Are you serious?"

Phoebe: "Cmon Ciona, you can lie down on the couch."

Yep, she was serious.

Phoebe: "Cj? Can we talk for a sec?"

Me: "Yeah."

Phoebe: "Look honey, we're the only ones she knows, so its obvious she's going to come to us when she needs help."

Me: "I know, but, me, you , that one time, what if?"

Phoebe: "Its not your child Cj, I can tell already, besides she wasn't in heat when we did that."

Me:" Oh right, I forgot."

Phoebe: "Look Cj, that child could come in just a matter of hours."

Me: "It just seems so weird."

Phoebe: "I know, but we need to be there for her."

Me: "We need to take her to a hospital."

Me: "Because none of us have any idea what we're doing."

Phoebe: "Do you know any doctors?"

Me: "No, none that I could just call up."

Me: "Get her in the truck."

Phoebe Ok.

The nearest town with a hospital was about 10 miles away, about 15 minutes of driving in the current weather conditions, the roads were slick and I was doing all I could to avoid sliding off into the ditch, Ciona was in the back doing fine. We arrived at the hospital 15 minutes later and rushed her inside.

Without a system of government, the hospital was run by generous volunteers who offered to use their expertise in medicine to keep people alive, often at no payment. In my area, which was virtually unscathed by rogue pokemon attacks, a tight nit community was formed between a few small towns in the area that were just a few minutes apart. Food was plentiful as there were lots of farmers around who raised cattle and other livestock. Not long after we got home, my mom tried to show her how to cook, somewhat impressed by how much I already taught her. My parents had a few chickens and they gave us a few of them after we got married. Chickens are interesting birds which can fend for themselves, spar the occasional owl, racoon, coyote, or badger that may choose to feed on them, but we had HellBlade arround to protect them from that. The chickens provided us with eggs, that we could either use as a food source, or trade for some meat. We could also butcher the chickens as well, but, we only had six chickens, so yeah. There were 5 hens and a rooster. Anyway back to the story.

She had her child the next day, a tiny little ralts, the thing was completely adorable. Ciona, being a Glaceon trapped in a gardevoir's body, was completely clueless on how to raise it, so Phoebe stayed at the hospital with her for a few days to show her how, even though we didn't have any children ourselves. It was weird how she knew all those things, that she personally never experienced herself. Apparently every pokemon has memory implants so it knows about its own species, these memory implants are copied from the originals, which were the 400 something pokemon that originally voluteered to be part of the experiment in their world, that took form as the main videogame series in this world. I was one of the first humans who ever experienced the game world first hand. But this ralts, Ciona's child was not created in the game, in was created in this world. In other words, it did not get those implants, and for awhile, Me and Phoebe were wondering if it even had a soul. Ciona was scared, which was understandable, hell, it wasn't even her child, but both of the child's real parents were dead. It was an orphan. Phoebe, bless her, she actually offered to take care of the child herself. I held her back.

Phoebe: "Cj, she can't take care of it, she's still a glaceon on the inside."

Phoebe: "She didn't even know how to nurse the poor thing."

Phoebe: "Please?"

What the hell was I supposed to say, this was the hardest question she ever asked.

Me: "Honey,..."

Ciona: "No, I'll take care of it, I've put you two through enough already."

Phoebe: "But your not able to."

Ciona: "I can learn."

Ciona: "Phoebe you're a gardevoir, can't you show me how?"

Phoebe: "Ok, fine."

Ciona stayed with us for a few more days, while Phoebe showed her how to raise the child. It was a rough week as Phoebe was pretty much preoccupied with the child, even though it wasn't even our child. Finally the day came when Ciona was finally able to handle the child on her own, so she left us, bound for who knows where. Ciona and Phoebe hugged before saying their goodbyes. It wasn't snowing but it was still fairly cold out, so Phoebe generously gave Ciona her ninetails to keep her and the child warm. We watched them walk away, Ciona carrying the baby in her arms. Then we went back inside, and sat down on the couch. We barely had time to say a word to eachother all week, but now, we were alone.

Phoebe: "Cj?"

Me: "Yeah?"

Phoebe: "Why couldn't you answer my question?"

Me: "What?"

Phoebe: "Back at the hospital?"

Phoebe: "When I asked you if we could raise the child?"

Phoebe: "I know you don't want children but why couldn't you just say no?"

Me: "Because, part of me wanted to say yes."

Phoebe: "Then why didn't you say yes?"

Me: "Because another part of me still doesn't want children."

Me: "My mind was gridlocked and thats why I couldn't answer your question."

Me: "And honey, I just want to be honest, I don't think I could of ever accepted that thing as my child."

Phoebe: "What?"

Me: "I don't know."

Me: "Honey its been a long week."

Phoebe: "You have a hard time without me don't you?"

Me: "After we've been together for so long."

Me: "Honey, this child thing is really bothering you isn't it?"

Phoebe: "Yes it is."

Me: "It like what 100 or so days until your're in heat again?"

-saddened- Phoebe: "I don't know."

-saddened- Phoebe: "I don't even know if I want children Cj."

Me: "Look if you want children just say the word."

Phoebe: "What? No, Cj I couldn't do that to you."

Me: "Honey? Am I not enough for you?"

Phoebe: "Cj don't go there."

Phoebe: "You know I love you."

Me: "Why do we need kids when we have eachother?"

Phoebe:" I'm sorry."

Me: "You wanted that child honey, stop trying to hide it."

Phoebe: "Cj it was an impulse thing ok?"

Phoebe: "It just seemed nice for the moment, besides at the time it seemed to be better if the child was in my care then hers."

Phoebe: "I was just trying to do what was best for it Cj."

Me: "I'm sorry baby."

Phoebe: "Do you ever think what's best for me?"

Me: "What the hell are you talking about honey? You are my life, you mean everything to me, and if you need children to be happy then, I guess in a hundred days or so..."

Phoebe: "No Cj, its fine, I just never realized."

Me: "I like what we have, just you and me."

Me: "Husband and wife."

Phoebe: "Sex?"

Me: "Well, yeah, but not just sex, just being with you, seeing you everyday, holding you in my arms, watching tapes with you that I've probably seen over a hundred times when I was a kid. Thinking to myself, that I just can't believe your're mine."

Me: "I've said before, but everyday with you, is better than a year without."

Me: "And I want to spend everyday I have left with you honey."

Me: "I guess I'm just afraid that kids may keep us apart."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj."

Me: "But if you don't feel the same..."

Phoebe: "No, Cj your're right."

Phoebe: "Love as strong as ours shouldn't be wasted on kids."

I hugged her.

Me: "Baby girl I love you so much."

Phoebe: "I love you too Cj."

Phoebe: "I wanted you all week but that kid kept getting in the way."

Me: "I told you."

Phoebe: "You want to take me upstairs? For a little voir voir?"

Earlier on she told me voir voir is gardevoir code for sex.

Me: "Sure baby."

So I carried her upstairs to the bedroom and then we had passionate sex, we spent most of the afternoon lying naked in bed, in eachother's arms. Phoebe could be a little bit of a nympho at times, but she knew when it was appropriate for us to have sex, so it wasn't much of a problem. I didn't mind it because I knew she would never betray me. We loved eachother, and we were very happy together. We never had a single fight, and we spent as much time together as we possibly could.

I kissed her.

Me: "I'll always love you baby."

Phoebe: "I'll always love you too Cj."

Me: "Together forever."

Phoebe: "Mhm."

We kissed.

A few days after that, another snowstorm came. We were trapped in the house for the day. So we were on the couch in blankets, watching some dvds we recently got through trade. The dvds had movies that neither of us had seen before, so it was exciting for both of us. One of them was some nameless low budget r rated horror movie, featuring some crazy monster that kills\rapes teenage girls at night. Phoebe was actually getting scared of it, even though the monster wasn't real.

Phoebe: "Is that thing real?"

Me: "No."

Phoebe: "Are you sure?"

Me: "Honey relax, even if it was, it only goes after human girls."

Me: "Your the one that wanted to watch this movie anyway."

Phoebe: "It just ripped that girl's arm off."

Phoebe: "How can you be so sure it won't want to do the same to me?"

Me: "Um honey, I have a question."

Phoebe: "What?"

Me: "After what we went through, like lycomming, and that one town with the scyther invasion that killed off our team."

Me:" How are you still affraid of stuff like this?"

Phoebe: "Cj, you said one of those scythers almost killed me."

Me: "True."

-scared- Phoebe: "And this thing is like invincible."

-scared- Phoebe: "See that guy just shot it and it didn't even flinch and now he got cut in half and its raping his girlfriend."

Me: "But its not real!"

Phoebe: "You used to think pokemon weren't real, now look at me."

Me: "Honey, just because pokemon are real doesn't mean this monster is."

Me: "Its a prop, its fake, its a made up story, hell it barely even looks real."

Phoebe: "But Cj."

Me: "Its not real just relax."

The power went out a few seconds later. Phoebe jumped.

Phoebe: "Cj I'm scared."

Me: "No kidding."

Me: "The generator probably just ran out of fuel."

Do to the inclement weather neither of us wanted to go outside to refuel the generator.

Me: "Just do that glowy thing with your arms."

Her arms emitted a dim purplish light, illuminating the pitch black house.

Me: "Lets just go to bed ok?"

Phoebe: "Ok."

So we went to bed for the night. She clung to me, scared out of her mind.

Me: "Honey, you mind not holding me so tight? Your psyhorn is going to leave a mark on my stomach."

Phoebe: "Sorry Cj, I'm just so scared."

I rubbed my stomach, making sure I wasn't bleeding.

Me:" Turn around baby, I'll hold you."

She turned around, I could holder closer from the back then I could from the front anyway, cause of her psyhorn. I held her as close as I could. Tempted to touch her breast, but, I controlled myself.

Phoebe: "Oh Cj, I love you so much."

Me: "I love you too."

Me: "Just close your eyes."

Me: "Nothings going to happen."

Me: "Just fall asleep."

Me: "We can have sex in the morning."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj."

Me: "Yeah, I know you like sex baby girl."

Phoebe: "Then why can't we just have it right now?"

I would've said yes, but before I could do so, I heard a window break from downstairs. Phoebe jumped out of fright once again, I was a little surprised as well.

Phoebe: "Oh god what was that?"

Me: "I don't know."

I got up, put my shirt and pants on since I was just in my underwear.

Me: "I'll go check it out."

Phoebe: "No wait, stay with me."

Me: " Why don't you just come with me?"

Phoebe: "Because I'm scared, what if the monster is downstairs?"

Me: "Honey for the last time, that monster does not exist, and besides aren't you technically a monster yourself?"

Phoebe: "Um yeah I guess."

Me: "So you're a monster that's affraid of other monsters?"

Phoebe: "Monsters that are gigantic , immune to gunfire, and want to rape me."

Me: "Monsters like that don't exist."

Me: "Cmon, I'll hold your hand."

Phoebe: "Ok."

Reluctantly she got up, wearing just her underwear and a beautiful night gown.

Me: "Cmon baby."

Me: "I need you to do that glowing arm thing you do again so I can see anyway."

So with her by my side, we slowly went down the stairs. We began to hear strange noises. We went to my gunvault, where I picked up my pistol just incase something had gotten into our house. With her arms providing the light, we headed into the living enough one of the windows was broken, and there was some fresh snow on the floor, that had blown in through it, there was broken glass everywhere, and both of us were barefoot, so that didn't help matters any. The storm alone couldn't have broken the window though.

Me: "Come on, lets go get some shoes."

Phoebe: "Ok."

So we went backupstairs just to get our shoes on, and then we came back down. We moved a bookcase infront of the window to keep more snow from blowing in. We would have to wait till tomarrow to get it repaired. We heard some strange noises again, a deep, moaning, almost sorrowful noise. So we headed into the kitchen, the fridge was open, some food was gone but whatever took it wasn't here. The strange sound had mysteriously dissapeared as we entered the kitchen.

Me: "There nothing here."

Phoebe: "But something took the food."

Me: "Yes."

I shut the refridgerator door.

Me: "You don't sense anything do you?"

Phoebe: "No."

Me: "I guess we could look through the basement."

-scaired- Phoebe: "No."

Me: "Are you scared?"

Phoebe: "Yes, can we just go back to bed, please?"

Me: "Phoebe, calm down."

-scaired- Phoebe: "I'm affraid the monster is going to come and kill you and then rape me and then kill me as well."

Me: "Honey, for the 1000th time, that monster is not real."

Me: "But there is obviously something in here with us."

Me: "So we must get rid of it."

Phoebe: "What do you think it could be?"

Me: "I don't know honey, but we have to find out."

We both heard that weird moaning sound again, and then the sound of some severely spooked chickens.

Me: "Oh dammit."

Me: "It got the chickens."

Phoebe: " Cj?"

The chickens finally shut up, and then we heard the sound of an even more scared chicken in the basement.

Me: "Dammit it's down there come on!"

I pulled her over to the stairs, she wanted to cry out of fear. I needed her to stay quiet, as too not alert the mysterious intruder of our presence.

Me: "Stay quiet."

-scaired- Phoebe: "But Cj."

-slightly annoyed- Me: "Stay quiet or I sware I will find a flashlight, drag you back upstairs and leave you there until I deal with this thing."

-scaired- Phoebe: "But Cj..."

Me: "No buts."

Me: "I know your scaired, but we need to do this so just calm down."

-sighs- Phoebe: "Ok."

Phoebe: "I'm sorry."

Me: "It's not your fault honey, you're just not used to this."

I kissed her.

The chicken was still squawking in fear in the basement.

Me: "Now cmon I need you to lead the way."

Phoebe: "Ok."

We slowly went down the stairs, into the pitch black of the basement. The chicken stopped squawking. We were met with a scene of feathers and blood, indicating something had killed and eaten the poor thing. It was pitch black except for the small amount of purplish-light she projected from her hands.

Me: "Dammit we're too late."

Phoebe: "Cj."

We heard the chickens squawking from outside again, and then we heard that strange moaning noise, louder than ever, and a single chicken squawking in fear.

Me: "Shine your light over there."

What we saw, was a frosslass, preparing to eat another one of our chickens, just as it had eaten the other one.

Frosslass: "Frosssssssssss"

Upon us discovering it, it dropped the chicken on the ground, the chicken, still very much alive, scurried away in fear to some other part of the basement. The frosslass vanished, only to throw me against the wall, I shot at it, but the bullets went straight through it and ended up disintegrating into the concrete wall behind it.

Frosslass: "Lasssssss."

It gazed at me, menacingly. It had me pinned to wall, and was moving in for the kill.

-scaired- Phoebe: "Oh god, Cj."

- a bit scaired- Me: "Dammit woman use shadowball."

Phoebe: "I'm scaired."

-a little more scaired- Me: "Just do it."

What she said next was kinda scary. And extremely unexpected.

-somewhat scaired, somewhat angry- Phoebe: "Get away from him you bitch."

Frosslass:"Fross?"

She ended up using shadowball on the thing like I said, knocking it out in one hit. I fell to the ground. Seeing as the threat was dead, her anger disappeared.

Me: "What the hell was that?"

Phoebe: "I got mad."

Phoebe: "I didn't want to watch you die again."

Me: "I thought you were scaired?"

Phoebe: " I was, but I love you more."

Me: "Come on honey, lets go back to bed."

Phoebe: "What do we do with the body?"

Me: "We'll deal with that in the morning."

I put my gun back into the vault and we headed back to the upstairs bedroom.

Me: "Why don't you just take all your clothes off?"

Phoebe: "Why you want me?"

Me: "You know it."

-smiling- Phoebe: "Your right... I do."

So she slipped off her gown, and we had sex once again, untill we ended up tied. I held her close, her breast pressed up against me, since her psyhorn was now retracted. I kissed her over and over, I told her I loved her.

Me: "See honey, there's nothing to be affraid of."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj."

Me: "Honey, your're very powerful, very smart, very beautiful, and very, very sexy."

Phoebe: "Stop it Cj, just stop it."

Me: "What have you got to be affraid of?"

Phoebe: "Losing you."

Me: "I will never leave you honey."

Phoebe: "But what if you get killed again? And there's no max revives around to bring you back?"

Me: "There'll always be max revives baby."

Me: "Now cmon, just go to sleep, we can have sex again in the morning if you want."

Phoebe: "Cj you're always there for me."

Me: "I know."

Me: "Thats because I love you baby."

Phoebe: "ohhhhhhhhh"

Me: "Now kiss me."

We kissed.

A few weeks later it was getting near christmas time. Christmas was going to be kind of strange this year. Pretty much every world religion was challenged by the events that were even more confused, as apparently there were two gods, she was created by one, and I, as well as all other things on this world, was created by the other. Ever since we got back, I never went to the local church I used to go to, except for our wedding, the church still had services, but I never went there anymore, because I was affraid of how the people there would react to my new pokemon wife. She asked me about christmas one day , after it was mentioned on the local news. So I told her about it, about Jesus and what not. She liked the story.

Me: "You know honey its kind of confusing, since apparently there is two different gods after all."

Phoebe: "Yeah."

Me: "Does arceus even ask anything of a pokemon?"

Phoebe: "No, he basically just created us and then kept to himself."

Phoebe: "He just keeps the pokemon universe in balance."

Me: "Ok."

Me: "How do you want to do this?"

Phoebe: "What do you mean?"

Me: "Do you even want to celebrate christmas or?"

Phoebe: "Well of course Cj, your god is real too isn't he?"

Me: "I guess so."

Phoebe: "So what should I get you?"

Me: "What?"

Phoebe: "For your present?"

Me: "Oh honey, you don't have to get me anything your love is enough."

Phoebe: "Awwwwwe Cj."

Me: "Do you want anything?"

Phoebe:" Not really."

Me: "Well if you think of anything just say the word ok?"

Phoebe: "Ok honey."

We kissed.

Well, I wanted to get her something, I didn't have much, the 10,000 dollars we had got in victorville long ago was practically worthless. I layed awake, in bed that night, while she slept beside me. I love her so much, I wanted to give her something she would never forget. But what? She snuggled up to me, all of sudden, aparently she wasn't asleep like I thought she was. She opened her eyes about halfway, so obviously she was tired.

-tired- Phoebe: "Oh Cj, whats wrong?"

Me: "Have you been up this whole time?"

Phoebe: "No, I just woke up from a dream and noticed you were wide awake."

-curious- Me: "What were you dreaming about?"

Phoebe: "Oh it's nothing."

Me: "What?"

Phoebe: "I was just dreaming about having parents like you."

Me: "Really?"

Me: "Were they human?"

Phoebe: "No, they were gardevoirs, silly."

Me:"Oh yeah, of course."

Phoebe:"Cj just go to sleep, I already told you I don't want anything."

Me: "But, honey."

Phoebe:"Because if your going to get me something that means I have to get you something."

Me: "No it doesn't."

Me: "Anyway hypothetically, if you wanted something, what would you want?"

Phoebe: "That's pretty much the same question Cj, and I already gave you the answer."

Me: "Ok hypothetically, if it wasn't the same question, if you wanted something..."

Phoebe:" Cj, just stop."

Me: "But I want to get you something."

Me: "But I don't know what your interested in."

Phoebe: "After all this time we've been together?"

Me: "Well you never really shown interest in anything besides sex."

Phoebe: "Yeah, I guess your right baby."

Phoebe: "Well, I like guns."

Me: "Really?"

Phoebe: "Yeah."

Phoebe: "And I always wanted to know what its like to drive a car."

Me: "Um, ok."

Phoebe: "And I guess I like clothes, dancing, and makeup and other girly things."

Me: "Ummm, ok."

Me: "So you like guns huh?"

Phoebe: "Mhm."

Phoebe: "And metal music."

Me: "Are you just saying that because you know I like cars, guns, and metal, or..."

Phoebe: "No Cj, you led me into being interested in those things."

Phoebe: "And clothes, and makeup, for that matter, hehe."

Me: "So before we "officially" met what were you interested in?"

Phoebe: " There wasn't much for a pokemon to be interested in in the game world Cj."

Phoebe: "But all gardevoirs are generally in to dancing."

Me: "Oh ok then."

Phoebe: "Now that you know can I go back to sleep?"

Me: "Yeah I guess so."

Phoebe: "You should get some sleep too honey."

Me: "Yeah I guess your right."

We kissed eachother goodnight.

Me: "Can I hold you?"

Phoebe: "Oh Cj, I was just going to ask the same thing."

Me:"Come here baby."

I put my arms around her.

Me: "I love you."

Phoebe: "I love you too."

We kissed again.

We both fell asleep a few minutes later.

Morning came.

I went into the timber, looking for that gun she dropped in the creek several months ago. The one she was going to kill herself with if you don't remember, she dropped it off the cliff and it fell into the shallow creak below. After looking for it for about half an hour, I found it half burried in the mud on the bank. It was in rough shape and not exactly in working order. It was slightly below freezing, so the creak wasn't frozen at this time. There wasn't much snow on the ground either, just a few patches here and there. I went back to our house, trying to clean the gun in the sink. Phoebe was nowhere to be seen, ever since we came home, she's had the strangest tendency to wander off into the timberland whenever the weather was good, I guess she just loved the outdoors, which makes sense. Usually I went with her, and we had great fun in those hills together, playing around, making out, talking about stuff. Getting lost wasn't a problem for her, she could just teleport back to the house at any given moment, and she had her own pokemon with her to protect her. Also sometimes we went back to my parents place, since ironically, my parents got along really well with her. And sometimes we just went to town. Although she couldn't drive, the nearest town was close enough for her to teleport too. The people there were really nice, and she could fit in with alot of the young local women. She was alot more social than I ever was.

So that being said, I didn't think her absence at this moment was in the least bit suspicious, and actually somewhat of a convenience. This way, I could go to town without her knowing, in order to get her a truly surprising gift. So I grabbed the M16 and the broken pistol and headed to a local gunshop. Our family knew the clerk fairly well.

Clerk: "So what are you looking for today Cj?"

Me: "I was wondering if I could get this fixed."

I put the busted pistol on the counter.

Clerk: "Isn't this that same one I sold your parents awhile back?"

Me: "Yeah."

Clerk: "What the heck happened to it?"

Me: "Wife accidently dropped it in the creek."

Me: "I was also wondering if I could get it custom engraved."

Clerk: "Well first off, this thing is totaled, I could sell you a new one though."

Me: "Um ok."

Clerk: "What do you have to trade?"

I put the m16 on the counter."

Clerk: " Is this what I think it is?"

Me: "Yeah, m16 full military spec."

Me: "I have no use for it anymore, I was wondering if I could just trade it off for a present for my wife."

Clerk: "And you want to trade it for a new one of these, and to have the new one custom engraved?"

Me: "mhm."

Clerk: "Ok."

Clerk: "What do you want the engraving to say?"

So I went over the details and he made some sketches, and when the design was finally worked out to perfection. We made the deal.

Clerk: "It'll will be done by tomarrow."

Me: "Ok."

So I returned home after stopping in town to get a few groceries to use as a cover to find Phoebe waiting for me.

Phoebe: "Where were you?"

Me: "I just left to get some groceries, where were you?"

Phoebe: "I was playing with my pokemon in the timber."

Me:" Ok."

We sat down on the couch to watch tv, we watched a few more videos from my childhood, and then we had lunch, and the day continued on as normal for us. Night came, we went to bed. The next day came. As I woke up beside her in bed I noticed she was still asleep. I nudged her, gently until she woke up. I was hoping she wasn't reading my mind right now. It was the day before christmas.

-tired- Phoebe: "What is it Cj?"

Me: "I'm going to go to the gunstore to get some ammo ok?"

Phoebe: "Ok, why so early in the morning?"

Me: "So I can spend the rest of the day with you."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj..."

Me: "I love you baby."

We kissed.

Me: "Goodmorning."

Phoebe: "Goodmorning Cj."

So I got up, and got some clothes on, and then left for the gun store, leaving Phoebe on her own, in the house. I knew she would be safe. Wild Pokemon were a very rare sight in this part of the country, that frosslass we met was surely just a freak incident. The weather today was pretty much the same as it was yesterday, not snowing, fairly cold, with small patches of snow on the ground in some places, and dead brown grass everywhere else. I arrived at the gun shop shortly after it had just opened for the day, to pick up the present for my beloved. I also briefly stopped at another store to pick up some wrapping paper and some tape to rap up the gun, inside its plastic case. I wrapped it up on the side of the road, because I wasn't sure if I would be able to do it at home without her noticing. When I got back, she was just getting out of the shower. It wasn't christmas yet, so I left the gun in the back of the truck. The skyline was parked in the garage, and probably would be for the rest of the winter. She walked out of the shower with her breast uncovered as usual, so I looked away out of respect while she got dressed.

Phoebe: "Oh Cj your back."

Me: "Yeah."

Phoebe: "Did you get the ammo?"

How the frick did I forget that?

Me: "Um they ran out."

Phoebe: "Your lying."

Phoebe :"Did you even go to the gun shop?"

Me: "Yeah."

Phoebe: "But why would you go there if it wasn't for ammo?"

-nervous- Me: "Hehehe."
Phoebe: "Cj you might as well tell me what your hiding."

Me: "No its a surprise."

Phoebe: "Oh you got me something?"

Me: "Its a surprise."

Phoebe: "Oh ok then, we'll just wait till tomarrow."

Phoebe:" You could of just said you were getting me a present Cj."

Phoebe: "You didn't have to lie."

Me: "But I wanted it to be a surprise."

We hugged.

Phoebe: "I still don't know what it is."

Me: "Isn't it obvious by now?"

Phoebe: "I guess."

Me: "Ahh thats okay."

Phoebe: "Now I have to get you something."

Me: "No you don't."

-cutely- Phoebe: "Oh but Cj..."

Me: "Ok fine."

Phoebe: "Ok then."

Me: "You and that voice of yours."

Phoebe: "Kiss me Cj."

We kissed.

Phoebe: "Ok I'm going to go now ok?"

Me: "Um ok?"

Phoebe: "I'll see you later honey.

Me: "Ok"

She kissed me and then she teleported off, to who knows where.

And teleported back a few minutes later.

Me: "That was quick."

Phoebe: "Well I don't have anything to trade."

Me: "Oh yeah."

Phoebe: "I guess I could trade a few of my dresses."

Me: "Oh honey, don't do that."

Me: "You don't have to get me anything."

Phoebe: "But I want to."

Me: "Oh honey, I love you, but seriously, you don't have to do that."

Phoebe: "Ohhh ok."

Me: "Come on, lets just spend the rest of the day together."

Phoebe:" Oh Cj, I love you so much."

Me: "I love you too sweetie."

We hugged. It was pretty close to noon now, so I made some hamburgers for lunch.

After lunch we spent the rest of the day in the house, it was getting pretty cold outside so we just watched some movies while sipping some hot chocolate.

At around 8:00 we both went to bed.

Phoebe: "Its the night before christmas Cj."

Me: "Yeah"

She crawled up on top of me.

Phoebe: "Maybe its not to late for me to get you something."

She slipped her head under the covers.

Me: "Honey, where are you going with...oh."

I felt her hands and then her lips around my cock.

Me: "Oh honey."

Me: "Come back up here."

She came back up, we kissed.

Phoebe: "You like?"

Me: "If you wanted to have sex you could've just asked."

Phoebe: "It had to be a surprise."

Me:"I love you."

Phoebe: "I love you too Cj."

Me: "Let me see that pussy baby."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj."

I slipped her underwear off. Gently rubbing her pussy with my fingers.

Me: "Yeah, your all nice and warm."

Phoebe: "Oh god Cj."

Me: "You like?"

Phoebe: " Oh Cj, naughty boy."

Me: "How is it I'm naughty when your the horny one?"

Phoebe: "I don't know."

I rolled over, placing her on her back.

Me: "Lets see what we got here."

Me: "Yeah, just open your legs."

Me: "Yeah."

I stuck my toungue into her hot little slit. I was doing whatever I could to please her. I loved her so much. Before long, our antics led to sex, and that led to us getting tied, once again. After the bond wore off, I was lying on my back, with her lying on her back on top of me, both of us completely naked.

Me: "You know honey, you have really nice breast, nice shape, very firm, -whilst tugging on her nipples-..."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj."

Me: "And you have the nicest little pussy."

I rubbed her pussy while she moaned a little.

Phoebe: "Cj your so naughty."

Me: "I don't really see how, as you appear to be enjoying it."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj, you never fail to satisfy me."

Me: "Same here baby."

She got off of me and we kissed, and, whilst locked in an embrace, we fell asleep, still madly in love with eachother. Tommorow was going to be our first christmas together.

Tommorrow came at last.

I woke up beside her, she was still in my arms, fast asleep, her psyhorn now poking me in the chest.

Me: "Um honey, its morning now."

She groaned rather cutely for a moment, then opened her eyes.

I kissed her.

Me: "Good morning baby."

Phoebe: "Goodmorning."

-somewhat hysterically- Me: "We're still naked aren't we?"

-cutely- Phoebe: "Mhm."

We both chuckled at this. Glancing out the bedroom window, I noticed it was snowing outside.

Me: "Are you going to take a shower or anything?"

-cutely- Phoebe: "Mhm."

Me: "Ok um, I probably should to so, I'll just wait for you to get finished and then I'll go ok?"

Phoebe: "Um...ok?"

Phoebe: "When do I get my present?"

Me: "Sometime today."

Phoebe: "That doesn't help much."

Me: "What does rare candy taste like?"

Phoebe: "Um...rare candy."

Me: "That doesn't help much either."

Phoebe: "Well it really doesn't taste like anything else."

Me: "Ok."

I kissed her.

Me: "You'll get your present, you just have to wait a little bit ok?"

Me: "I know how you feel honey, I always felt the same way every christmas I had with my parents before this."

Me: "Best way around it was to sleep in and make everyone else wait for you."

-cutely- Phoebe: " Oh really Cj?"

Me: "Yep."

She kissed me.

Phoebe: "I guess I'll just go take a shower then."

Phoebe: "Ok?"

Me: "Yeah."

She got out of bed, still naked. Took one of her dresses from the closet, and walked out of the room, presumably downstairs where the shower was. I got up, got dressed, and just went downstairs, I played around on pokemon black 2 while she was in the shower, I was waiting for her to get out so I could take a shower as well. A few minutes later, I heard the shower shut off, and a few more minutes after that she walked out wearing the same dress I saw her take from the closet earlier. I put my Ds down while she sat down beside me.

Me: "Um I'm going to go take a shower, so um if you want, why don't you just get something to eat, or wait here or something until I'm done ok?"

Phoebe: "Um you want me to make breakfast for you? Cause I know how to now."

Me: "Um...ok."

Phoebe: "I love you."

Me: "I love you to honey."

Me: "And then after breakfast, you can have your present."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj."

Me: "I love you baby."

We kissed.

About 10 minutes later.

I got out of the shower, got dressed, yatta yatta yatta. We had breakfast, and then I put my coat on and went outside to get her present from the truck. It was still snowing out, and it was pretty cold outside. I got the package, and ran back inside, closing the door behind me.

Me:" Now, honey, I want you to know, I put alot of thought into this, and, it wasn't exactly cheap and, I just, I hope you like it."

Phoebe: "Oh Cj, why are you so nervous?"

Me: "I don't know."

Phoebe: "Why is it covered in paper?"

Me: "I don't really know, its just tradition I guess."

Using her powers, she unfolded the paper perfectly from the package.

Me: "Um you know you are allowed to rip the paper right?"

Phoebe: "I thought it would be more fun to use my powers."

Me: "Well it looked cool."

Phoebe: "Oh thanks Cj."

Me: "Well? Are you going to open the case?"

Phoebe: "Yeah."

She slowly unhinged both the latches of the plastic case containing the pistol.

Phoebe: "Cj, isn't this your old one?

Me: "No, that one was totalled, this one's brand new."

Me: "And its not exactly ordinary either."

Phoebe: "I noticed."

Before I could say anything else, she hugged me.

Phoebe: "I love it Cj."

Phoebe: "I love you."

Me: "I love you too baby."

Phoebe: "When can I fire it?"

Me: "Its a little too cold right now."

Me: "It will warm up soon enough."

Me: "We'll just keep it in the vault till then ok?"

Phoebe: "I love you Cj."

Me: "I love you too Phoebe, never forget that."

We kissed.

After that, we spent part of the day at my parent's, we had lunch there as well, and she watched as my siblings opened presents my parents had gotten for them. Then, after returning home, we spent the rest of the day watching old vhs tapes on tv, some of the older pokemon movies, Mewtwo returns, Pokemon the Movie 2000, Pokemon The Movie 3 Spell of the Unknown, and Pokemon 4Ever. Yeah I was a pokemon fan since I was a kid, and had original vhs tapes of some of the first movies, and a few recordings of some others, such as Destiny deoxys, and Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. And those were just my pokemon tapes. By the time we got to the 3rd movie, it was getting late, so we went to bed. We pretty much just skipped dinner, as we were both pretty full from lunch. And that was how our first christmas went.
