Chapter 9: The Unexpected Rule Changer

Ever since Cinder and Rose had worked out their differences, the mood around the house had gotten better. And even though they still bared the bruises from their fight; they were like best friends. Adam was still trying to figure out what they agreed to but when he inquired them about it; the two of them would only giggle and kept him in the dark. Ultimately, he was glad that they weren't trying to kill one another anymore. One week had passed with no hostility.

Over the next couple of days, the snow had finally melted away completely. Once things thawed out; Adam had made his way to lake that was just up the road. He had knocked holes in the ice and dropped down fishing hooks with bait on them. After tying them off, he left them and would check back in on them later. He was hoping to catch a good little haul since he had been craving fish lately.

A total off two weeks had passed since the big fight and it was just another calm day around the house. Adam walked into the living room. Cinder and Rose were sitting on the couch looking at a book. A few days ago, Rose had seen Cinder reading and admitted that she wanted to learn how to read also. So, Cinder agreed to teach her how to as long as Rose upheld her end of their agreement; which Adam still was clueless to the details about.

"Well, I am heading out to the lake." Adam said as he slipped on a light jacket.

"Alright, do you want some company?" Cinder asked.

"No thanks." He replied. "I just need some time to myself."

"Oh…okay. Well, be careful."

"I will. You two have fun."

"We will." Rose replied.

Adam made his way out to the barn where he loaded up the ATV with all the necessary gear he would need. Once everything was set, Adam started the quad up and made his way on down the road. The sun was up, the sky clear. It looked like today was going to be a beautiful day.

It didn't take him long to reach the lake. Once there, all he had to do was look for the sign he had left. He had tied a ribbon to the ends of the tree branches that he had tied his fishing lines to. He was surprised to find the majority of the water had thawed out. Seeing as it was still rather cold, he would have thought more of the water would have remained frozen.

He rode up to the tree her had tied his lines off to and carefully checked each one. Most of the lines held nothing; their hooks stripped of the bait left on them. Two of them held small fish; neither large enough to make a meal of, so he let them go. The last hook held the remains of a bigger fish, wish showed something larger had come across the hooked fish and found it to be a free and easy meal.

"Judging by this last line, it proves that there are larger fish out here." Adam said to himself. He decided to do a bit of modern fishing with a rod rather than to tie the lines off to an anchor like before. He knew that the lake was known for the large number of trout it held, so after choosing the right bait, Adam felt confident that he would hopefully have enough fish in no time. So, after casting his line out, he kicked back and waited.

Cinder sat on the couch and started off while her mind wandered. Rose sat nearby, her nose buried in a book. Cinder was surprised as to how fast Rose had picked up on the reading. She thought that it would have taken at least a week but she was proven wrong. It had only been about four hours and Rose was reading with little to no trouble at all.

An odd sensation suddenly caught Cinder's attention. It was deep down, near the pit of her stomach. Placing a paw on her belly, she began to notice the all too familiar signs. It was that time for her and once again she was going into heat.

I was wondering when this was gonna pop up. She thought to herself. Aside from the odd sensation or the increase of her internal body temperature, Cinder didn't normally mind it. She had never found Adam to be more passionate yet more ravenous with his love-making than when she was in heat. It was like something inside him had unlocked and his inner wild side boiled to the surface.

There was one thing she hated about this time and that was when she got her urges and Adam was not around. She would often find herself trembling and wet, just waiting for that moment when he returned and would calm the blaze inside her. Her stomach twinged just at the thought of his "bestial" side. She tried her best to keep her thoughts under control but her natural instincts were not going to let her off so easily. The more she tried to ignore it, the more her heat seemed to almost flare up. Soon, it became too much.

"I'll be right back." She said lightly to Rose before getting up and leaving the room.

"Oh, o…kay." The Lucario replied.

Cinder made her way through her and Adam's room and to their bathroom. She pushed the door up behind her as she did. It was another drawback from going into heat. With Adam around, it wasn't too bad. But when he was gone and her urges became too much for her to bear, she had no choice than to rely on self-pleasure to provide some sort of relief no matter how little.

She exhaled as she slowly slid her paw down her front towards her slightly swollen and moist sex. She shivered as her claw lightly brushed the sensitive flesh. With a sigh, she realized that there was no getting around it; she was going to have to get some relief. Slowly, she began to stroke and rub herself; gasping and moaning ever so lightly. Her knees began to quiver slightly and her gentle stroking drove her on. She couldn't help but let out a whimpered cry as a wayward digit found its way into her damp hole. She was oblivious as her mind was set on obtaining one goal.

Rose sat there reading. She began to wonder were Cinder had gone. She had been gone for a rather long time for what appeared to be just a simple bathroom trip. She set the book down and carefully made her way after Cinder. Upon entering the bedroom, she noticed that the bathroom door was ajar. She though that she heard Cinder crying out and whimpering and she rushed to the door assuming that something bad had happened.

"Cinder, are you alright!" she called out pushing the door opened. She immediately gave a shocked gasp and quickly closed the door. She hurried back to the den blushing heavily and began to read through the book once again. A few minutes later Cinder reentered the room, blushing just as much if not more as the Lucario. The two of them sat in an embarrassed silence for a good moment.

"I'm…so…sorry about that." Cinder spoke out first

"N-no…it is my fault." Rose replied. "I shouldn't have just barraged in like that."

They fell into another bout of silence before Cinder buried her face in her paws.

"Ahh…I'm so embarrassed." She mumbled.

"Don't…don't be." Rose replied. "That is a natural way to relief oneself of certain sudden urges. Hey, if it makes you feel any better; I've done the same thing before."

"I-I just don't know what came over me." She replied. "I normally have better control over myself. Normally, if Adam was here, it wouldn't be so bad. He would have done something to help and I wouldn't break down and get like that." Rose remained silent before choosing her next words.

"Well…I-I may not be Adam…but, umm…maybe I can help you." She looked down kind of embarrassed as soon as she had said that. Cinder looked up blushing heavily. Did she just hear her correctly?

"Wh-what?" she asked. "What do you mean?"

"I…uh, I might be able to…to help you out in your…situation."

"I still don't quite understand."

"You see…back before I left my horrible trainer… me and his other two female Pokémon often got urges and well, we sort of helped one another out in relieving ourselves of these urges. I guess we trusted each other more than we did with our own trainer."

"W-why would you do something like that for me?"

"Well, we're friends aren't we?" she asked curiously. "You've been so nice to me lately and if something is making you uncomfortable, I want to help if possible."

"I…I understand." Cinder replied. "I'm just not 100% sure about this. I-I…well…I never had any sort of actions with another female. It just seems…odd."

"I know what you mean. My first time was awkward, I won't lie. But after we realized that we could help one another…we kinda got use to the idea."

"I still don't know…"

"Well, just come here." She said taking Cinder by the paw and leading her off towards the bathroom. "I still might be able to provide some sort of relief."

Cinder had no clue as to what she could say as a rebuttal. She could do nothing else but be pulled along and ask herself if this was actually happening.

Adam reeled in his line and checked it. Something had taken his bait. With a curse and a sigh, he reset his hook and cast it back out. He had already caught three nicely sized trout. After a little while, he felt a tug on his line. He readied himself and kept a close eye on his bobber. After about ten minutes, it bobbed a little. And about a minute or two later…it bobbed once again. Adam stayed ready; waiting for that right moment. Suddenly, the bobber went down and it went down hard.

Adam jerked back on his rod and instantly he knew that the hook had set. The rod jerked violently as his quarry thrashed and struggled, trying its hardest to get free. Adam let the line go out a little before pulling back once again. Whatever he had hooked, it was big and it wasn't going down without putting up on hell of a fight.

At times, Adam found himself at the edge of the lake just barely holding on where at other times he found himself gaining ground. His rod bowed and creaked and at times seemed as if it were about to snap. He was not going to give up though. For well over a half an hour, Adam battled with an unknown beast of the deep. He wasn't sure as to what he hooked but he was beginning to think that it was a normal fish.

Suddenly, something breached the surface for a moment. Adam thought he saw a long slender body. It defiantly wasn't a fish. He began pulling on the line, ever slowly reeling it in. Adam let out a gasp when the hooked creature leapt out of the water. He had somehow managed to snag a nine foot Dratini.

Knowing what he had hooked changed the simple struggle into an all new game. Adam had to get the Dratini ashore and fast in order to remove the hook to keep the creature from hurting itself any more than it was already. He began to put all his strength into getting that Dratini in. The serpentine Pokémon thrashed as it got closer and closer to land. It wasn't going to go any farther than it was so Adam gave a sigh. He knew that ultimately, he was going to have to get into the water.

He kicked off his shoes and grabbed ahold of the line as he carefully stepped into the frigid water. Adam began to wade out towards the struggling dragon in order to unhook it. Luckily, it was only in about two feet of water and he was able to reach it relatively easy. As he approached it, the Dratini began to release a wailing cry and it continued to thrash even more. Adam was left with no choice.

Rushing forward, he threw himself onto the writhing Pokémon in order to keep it from thrashing. The Dratini's wails had begun to grow more frantic and fearful. Adam rubbed the side of its neck as he tried his best to soothe it.

"It's alright." He said quietly as he tried to shush the wailing creature. "I'm trying to help." He continued with his soothing hoping that it would actually work. It seemed to have some effect. Though it did not stop entirely; the Dratini stopped trashing and its wails became nothing more that light cries.

As he continued to rub its neck with one hand, Adam slid his hand along the edge of the Pokémon's mouth as he felt for the line. Once he did, he began to work his hand into its mouth. The creature was not happy however and started to struggle and wail again. This time, Adam heard a response call. Looking up, he saw the most beautiful yet terrifying thing.

A Dragonair had heard the Dratini's cry for help and was now moving swiftly towards the commotion to intervene. Now Adam really had to work fast. The last thing he wanted to deal with was a fifteen to twenty-foot long angry mother dragon. Adam blindly felt for the hook.

Following the line with his hand, he came to a stop when he hit something hard and jagged. It was the hook. It was embedded in the bottom of the Dratini's mouth. Moving as swiftly as he could, he began to work the hook around trying to loosen it from the flesh it had snagged.

The Dratini release and agonizing cry which only seemed to enrage the approaching mother. Suddenly, the hook popped free. Laughing, Adam quickly pulled it free of the Dratini's mouth and tossed it aside. There was still one problem. When he pulled the Pokémon in, he had unintentionally beached it on the shallow bottom.

He wrapped his arms around the wriggling mass and heaved with all his might as he began to haul the dragon back into deeper water. As the water began to rise, the Dratini began to squirm more. Finally, Adam was out far enough where he felt comfortable releasing it. When he did, the Dratini instantly took off in a hurry towards the rapidly approaching Dragonair.

As the two met, Adam quickly retreated to the shore to look on. The Dragonair ran its nose along the baby's back after nuzzling it gently. It then looked up at Adam before it began to guide the Dratini away. It wasn't long before the pair of them slipped away beneath the calm waters and disappeared as if they were merely apparitions.

Adam gave a great sigh of relief. That was too close for comfort for him. He thought about calling it quits but he didn't have enough fish for a large dinner so he threw out a few more anchored off lines. Once they were out; Adam flopped back onto the ground and stretched his sore arms and cold legs hoping to dry off some as he lie there. The warm sun seemed to lure him into slumber and his tired body was all too eager to comply.

Cinder was stunned as Rose dragged her along. The Lucario pulled her off to the bathroom and closed the door behind them. She was going to say it but Cinder was still a little nervous and unsure of how things were going. But Rose seemed so sure and confident with what she was doing.

"Umm, Rose." She managed to say. "I'm…I'm still not sure about this."

"Just relax." The Lucario replied with a smile. "Everything will be just fine."

"If…if you say so." Cinder replied timidly as she closed her eyes, feeling one of Rose's paws gently sliding its way down her front. She shivered slightly as it brushed lightly against her sensitive sex. Soon, Rose was softly stroking her and Cinder couldn't help but release light moans.

"See, it's not so bad." Rose said as she pressed a digit past Cinder's wet lips, making her whimper. "Just relax."

Cinder's moans became louder as Rose's finger began to work deeper into her. As Rose hit a particularly sensitive region; Cinder was unable to contain herself anymore and cried out. She was shocked when the Lucario silenced her by pressing her mouth against her own. Cinder was thrown off and tried to pull back but Rose had wrapped her free arm around her.

"Don't fight it." She said gently. "It is better if you don't."

Lost in the pleasure she was receiving, Cinder's instincts took over and drove her on into continuing with reaching what she desperately needed. She responded by wrapping her arms around Rose and returning the kiss with lustful vigor. She moaned into Rose's mouth as the Lucario continued to work her fingers deeper and at times, their tongues couldn't help but dance together.

"Don't…don't stop…" Cinder breathed as she grew closer to her limit.

"Don't hold back." She replied and she increased the speed at which she worked her paw. Cinder moaned even louder as she knew that at any moment, she would be pushed over the edge of release. With one final thrust, Rose's finger hit its mark. Cinder's walls clamped around it as she cried out loudly and released a burst of her juices in a quick spurt.

Adam woke with a gasp. He was breathing a bit harder than normal and he found himself blushing. He had just had the strangest dream. It involved Cinder and Rose and the bulge in his pants seemed to agree with his brain that the dream seemed like he was there and it was all too real. He made his way to the lake and splashed the cold water on his face hoping it would cool him down.

"Well…" he said with a sigh. "That was intense. I have no clue as to what brought that into my head." To try to calm himself and bring his arousal down, he busied himself by checking his lines. He was glad to find that he had caught more fish. They had more than enough fish for a big dinner

Eager to get home and in to warmer and drier clothes; Adam packed up his gear as well as the fresh fish he had just caught and strapped it all down onto the ATV. It wasn't long before he was heading home. He sighed in relief when the house came into view. He parked the four-wheeler in the barn and made his way inside.

"I'm back." He side as he entered the door. Rose was reading on the couch.

"Welcome back." She said looking over the top of the book.

"Hey…" he replied looking around. "Where is Cinder?" Just about as soon as the words left his mouth, Cinder entered the room from the kitchen.

"Hey, Adam." She said giving him a rather tight hug. "I'm glad you're back."

"I'm glad to be back." He replied with a chuckle. A familiar scent caught his attention. It was a sharp, musky smell that reminded him of spiced apples. It took a second for it to requester in his mind that the scent was coming from Cinder.

Hmm… he thought to himself. She must have gone into heat recently.

"Did you get any fish?" she asked pulling him to his senses.

"Huh, oh yea, I got a good haul." He responded with a nod. "They are out in the barn. I haven't cleaned them yet but I will tell you that we will be eating good tonight."

"Well, that's good." Cinder replied with a cheery smile. "I guess I better go finish tidying up in the kitchen then while you go prep the fish." She turned are returned to the kitchen leaving Adam there scratching his head. With a sigh, he turned and almost ran into Rose who was now standing behind him.

"Gah!" he exclaimed jumping back. "Don't sneak up on me like that, Rose."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to." She replied. She gave him a brief hug. "So, what all did you manage to catch?"

"I caught about eight nice sized trout." He said showing a rough length with his hands. "We should have enough fish for at least two good meals."

"Do you mind if I watch you while you clean them?"

"No…if you want to, feel free." He then turned and called out towards the kitchen. "Cinder, I'm going out to clean the fish!"

"Alright…be careful!" she replied.

Adam made his way out to the barn with Rose following in toe. He laid out the fish before digging through his gear for his fishing knife. He then proceeded to clean, skin, and fillet the fish while Rose sat and watched on.

"Hey, Rose…" Adam said after about the fourth fish. "Is something up with Cinder?"

"Not that I know of." The Lucario replied. "Why do you ask?"

"I don't know." He said with a shrug. "And maybe it's just me but she has been acting a little different lately."

"You would know her better than me."

"Yea, I know…but she hasn't talked to you about anything. Said that something was bothering her or something?"

"No, not really."

"Oh, okay."

While Adam kept cleaning the fish, he kept picking up on an odd smell, and it wasn't the fish. It was a strong musky smell like Cinder except this one had a rather sweet smell than a spicy one. He eventually pin pointed that the smell was coming from Rose.

Great…is she in heat also? He thought. Things are going to get crazy around here soon. Cinder can sometimes be a handful when she is in the mood but how am I going to deal with two horny females that are both trying to get at me?
