Author's Notes:

All of a sudden the reviews and PM's stopped. What happened? Did you all, all of a sudden get annoyed with the turn in the last chapter?

Anyway, this one was longer. The next few chapters might not come this fast. I'm not sure. My PTSD has been triggered... So, at the moment, I'm not sleeping because of the nightmares.

I'll try to get the next one out, though, as soon as I can. I promise! So, please review.

Previously:

"Ash..."

Rudy froze. She froze. What had she-?
His lips were resting at her collarbone. His knee on the bed, between her denim-clad thighs...

"Rudy..."

She said as he finally pulled away.

"I can't do this..."

He said and got up, leaving.
She covered her face with her hands and started sobbing.

Chapter #10 - Truth Unraveling and Traveling

.

Rudy walked down to the pool and watched the water play light and shadows in the dark room, on the walls and ceiling.

He was mad at himself! He was pissed at Misty for being a confused teenager, which he knew wasn't her fault, really.

He was REALLY pissed off at Ash for being who she needed and WANTED and not being here!

He looked around, and saw a bucket that the sisters used to feed their Pokémon. It was on the side of the pool. Without thinking, he let his temper rule him and with all of his might, he kicked the damn bucket!

It was sent flying across the other side of the pool, and into a wall. Things were quiet after that, as he tried to calm himself down. He had to get a friggen grip! What the hell was he even-

A quiet whistle was suddenly heard, from the diving board.

"I, like, didn't know buckets could be used like that."

He sighed and looked up and over. Lily sat on the board about 30 feet above him.

"Sorry..."

He muttered halfheartedly, she smiled down at him. And, in the next instant, she was diving into the pool below. He got splashed. Great.

He sighed again, and started wringing out his clothes, and pushing is wet hair back. Lily swam over to the edge, looking up at him.

"Come in, and swim, Rudy... It might, like, help some stress..."

He looked down at her. As turned on from Misty, as he was. As sexually frustrated, as he was. And as much as Lily looked like her little sister, he wasn't too sure he trusted himself in the water with nothing but a bikini and swim trunks on their bodies. Be blushed, he could see right down her front.

He looked away.

"No thanks,"

He said, he turned to leave, but, she grabbed his pant's leg and before he could react, she had tugged him backwards with all her might, he yelped and flailed, thrown off balance, finally, he landed back first into the water beside her.

She winced as she realized the way he hit was water, likely hurt.

"Ow! Damn it, Lily, I-"

He found himself treading water, his back against the edge of the pool, as the second youngest of the sensational sisters pressed her body flushed against his, her lips sealed over his.

Be blinked, then swore mentally as her knee brushed his groin, under the water. In the next instant, he had her sitting on the side of the pool and he was kissing her back hungrily. She knew he put her up there to save himself from doing the wrong thing, she had felt what her knee had hit, through the clothing of his pants. She was going to be stubborn though. She leaned so far into him, that she slid back into the Water, he wrapped his arms around her as he groaned, she had wrapped her legs around his waist.

'Too much contact!'

He thought with a groan of need vocalizing itself from his throat. He finally broke the kiss, gasping for air, he was now partially on his back in the water, she was pressed to close, all he wanted to do was lose himself in her...

"Lily,"

He breathed, and she blinked at him.

"Are you-?"

"Trying to, like, seduce you?"

She rolled her hips against him and they both sank below the surface, as he groaned and stopped trending water a moment. A second later, both surfaced again, gasping for air and sputtering out water.

He started to swim for the side if the pool, but, she pinned him against it again, this time from behind, her hands snaking down around his waist, and he slammed his head against the pool as she gripped him through his pants.

She leaned against his back, and nibbled his ear as he panted.

"Lily, I..."

"I want you, Rudy."

His breath caught in his throat.

"But..."

She undid his belt and the fastenings on his pants, her hand slipping inside.

'Ah~ damnit!'

He hoisted himself out of the water, soaking wet clothes and all, then turned on her.

He grabbed her under the arms and pulled her on top of himself. Both lay there, gasping. She was being more forward than she might. But, she felt strongly for him. She had, since she met him, but he and Misty seemed to have a thing...

However, his responses to her just now, made her think that maybe he wasn't as into Misty, as she had thought. All of her sisters. They all had people they were in love with. But, she did not... However, she had only felt sure of herself in the water, while perusing her...

Now, she curled in on herself, burying her face in his shirt, in embarrassment. He probably though she was horrible. He probably-

"Lily,"

He breathed softly, looking at the ripples of light on the ceiling again. She didn't respond at first. Then she sighed.

"Y... Yes...?"

She swallowed nervously. Then froze, he brought a hand up and was touching her butt, where the bikini bottom did not cover. Her breath caught as his hand gently caressed the skin there.

"I can't promise that it will be more than a fling, but... You got my attention... Are you still willing, even if I can't promise that I'll love you the way you should be?"

He felt her hands clench in his shirt, then she shifted, so that she was straddling his waist, his hand was still on her backside. She looked down at him, he blinked up at her.

"Yes. I am, even if you still love Misty,"

He looked away. He was wondering if he really loved Misty at all, any more. That whimper of Ash's name had sort if made him feel a bit numb.

"I want to be with you. Even if it, like, doesn't last, even uf-"

He had pulled her down and captured her lips in a heated kiss, that was all he needed by way of consent.

She whimpered into the kiss, as he shifted his hand, and moments later he had her shivering on top of him, panting for breath. He rolled them both over and propped himself up with both hands, looking down at the quivering girl below him.

"No regrets or hurt feelings if things don't work out?"

He asked as he licked a trail up her neck to her ear.

"None..."

She gasped as he claimed her lips again and started sliding her bikini off completely.

Misty sat in her room, she felt... She didn't know what she felt. She looked at the freaky Pikachu at her feet. She looked at the note in her hand from her father, wish she had read once already. She remembered Rudy's tongue in her mouth and... Sighing heavily, she got to her feet.

She paced a bit, and then sat back down. She opened her father's note again and then she started reading it again.

'Misty-

I'm sorry. That's the first thing I should, and can, say to you. I am truly sorry. Sorry for far too many reasons that I don't have any time to list. I have to track down and... Take care of... Th... That creature from the water...'

She snorted at the way he had put that.

"Yeah dad, go kill that thing! Never mind it was once my mother!"

She said sarcastically, to the empty room. When this was all over, she would do something medically, to be sure she could NEVER have children. It was bad enough, that Daisy's kids would...
She shuddered. She had once wanted a family, but, she'd be lucky if she ever properly dated, let alone... She sighed again, and went back to her father's note:

'-I... We, your mother and I never wanted to tell you about this. We thought that we could protect you girls... We thought that if the crystal wasn't in our posession...

Anyway, we were wrong, and I am sorry.

The day of the car crash... We were headed to see Professor Oak and his son. The plans were, to leave you with Oak's daughter-in-law, their kids: Daisy and Gary Oak, and a friend of theirs, Delia Ketchum and her son, Satoshi, who everyone calls Ash...'

Misty read that line several times. Delia had never let on that she knew Misty's family... Were they meeting for the first time? She didn't know what to think...

'- Speaking of: your... Friend...? Rudy... He said you were involved with a boy named Ash, Is that Delia's son?

Regardless... You should go to Pallet town and ask the professor, about the Water Pokémon Alpha Omegas... He knows more than he lets on. That old man KNOWS A LOT MORE THAN HE LETS ON!'

She sighed, feeling disappointment. If Oak hadn't said anything yet, would he? And, anyway, Oak was only 17 years older than Delia, as far as Misty knew, her father was 4 years older than Delia... So, he shouldn't be referring to him as if he were that old! She thought.

'I left my friend, the Mizukachu, with you.'

Misty looked at the thing that was watching her, she was sure it had to be some genetic splicing of some sort of evil craziness. It looked like a Pikachu. But, it was blue, and actually, strangely pretty, a flower behind one ear, that seemed to be part of its body, its back-end was similar to that of a vaporeon, though the fins were different...
Glancing back at the note, Misty finished reading.

'- She's a fairy, electric and water type. She can swim and walk on land- I left some special treats for her, with Rudy. He said he would leave them on your dresser. Only use those treats if you need her special abilities.
{Again, not helpful info, dad, what? Does she suddenly turn 10'tall? She thought, very annoyed. Why the damn hell couldn't people just SPIT IT OUT!}
Anyway- she can help you find the rest of your answers... Again, my sweet little girl, I am sorry...

Love,

Your father.

Daniel Marcous (Mark) Waterflower...'

Snorting derisively, she folded the note and put it in her backpack, then she threw some other things in as well. Making a choice, finally.

She found the Pokémon treats and a lureball that she did not own, it had a lightening mark carved into it, curiously, she pointed it at the Pokémon, and it returned. Well... At least it wasn't claustrophobic, like Ash's Pikachu was.

She glanced at her room, once more, having changed into a pair of blue shorts and sneakers, as well as a blue and white blouse, tied up, revealing her midriff.
Then, she headed out of her room. She looked around for her sisters, Lily or Violet should be here... Finally, she was passing the pool area when she heard a female whimper. She blinked and cracked the door, her eyes widened, and she slapped a hand over her mouth.
She couldn't see much (there was a lounge chair and some pool equipment between her and Rudy, which was keeping her from seeing what exactly was going on).

But, she could see Rudy's back, and a an arm around his neck, fingers gripping his hair. He was naked from every angle she tried to look, and he moved in an erratic way, groaning with each movement.

She saw something in the water and on the side of the pool, as she strained her eyes, she finally noticed a bikini bottom in the pool, floating lazily away. And a pair of men's shirts (underwear she assumed), on top of them was the top of the bikini. Elsewhere, she could see more of Rudy's clothes scattered. Having been flung about.

Finally she heard him chanting Lily's name.
Misty heard Lily call out his name, and that damn Pikachu-thing let itself out of the ball, it made a strange sound and started to wander into the room!
She grabbed the mouse by a long blue and black fuzzy ear, and closed the door as quietly as she could. Her heart pounding as she heard the cries and grunts from her sister and friend.
She was afraid to move, finally, the sounds from the two got louder, she heard each calling the others name... then, Misty heard nothing.

She sighed as she walked out to the gym's lobby a while later- after stopping to raid the kitchen of food for her trip.
She didn't feel jealous, she had far too many other things to worry about... Violet was there when she walked into the lobby. The second oldest of the 4 sisters was washing the windows.

"Like, hi, Misty... Wow! Your face is red! Are you still not feeling better!?"

She asked as she rushed over to Misty, who swatted her hand away.

"Yeah... I'm fine!... I just..."

"Just...?"

Misty's blush grew.

"Make Lily clean the pool area today..."

She said and ran out, Violet blinked, confused. She followed Misty out.

"Ok. But... Like, where are YOU going?"

She asked, as her baby sister sat the strange pikachu-thing in her bike's basket, then Misty got on the bike.

"I'm going to look in on Daisy, then heading out to see Professor Oak..."

Was all the girl had said, before she took off...

Later, Violet was in the dining room, drinking some tea, when Lily walked in. Violet blinked at her. Lily had a sundress on, she LOOKED normal, but, she was walking a bit stiffly. She noticed a bite mark low on Lily's throat. Now Misty's red face made sense.

Violet smiled, glancing back down, she had been reading a fashion magazine, when Lily came in, currently the younger of the twins was in the fridge.

"So, like... How was he?"

She asked in a normal conversational tone, flipping a page, not looking up from her magazine.

She heard a gasp, and something dropped. Violet looked up at the red faced Lily.

"I... I... Uh...?"

Violet rested her head in her hands, waiting for her sister to stop sputtering.

"I'm waiting..."

She prompted.

"Ah... How d... Like, how did you k... Know...?"

"It's like, REALLY obvious that you aren't a virgin anymore, your, like, walking a bit like a psyduck..."

Lily looked uncomfortable, she bit her lip. Still, her twin persisted.

"Must have been good... But, like, not done in the most comfortable place... What, did you two do it by the pool?"

Lily, who had nervously taken a sip of water from the glass in her hands, started choking.

"Wha-...?"

She asked, her eyes huge, Violet started laughing at her expression.

"Like... What's so funny...!?"

Lily demanded, red faced, as she sat across from her sister, wincing a bit as she sat too hard and quickly.

"I was, like, just thinking that all but, one, of the Waterflowers had now been deflowered!"

"Violet!"

"Now, if Misty could, like, just nail that Ash kid..."

Lily's eyes widened.

"Don't tell Misty!"

Violet shrugged.

"She, like, already knows."

"What...?"

Now Lily was going pale.

"H... How...?"

Violet shrugged again, looking far too amused.

"My guess is that you two were, like, very vocal, or, that she, like, saw you at it..."

Lily put her head in her hands.

"W... Was she, like... Upset...?"

"No, when I saw her, she was, like, really red faced. She, then, like, told me to, like, make YOU clean the pool area, (which, knowing what you did there, I, like, totally agree with her, your cleaning it later)... Then she, like, got on her bike with that freaky Pikachu in the basket, and left."

"She ran away!"

Lily asked, panicked. Violet made her sit, when she started to get up.

"No, I, like, wouldn't have let her go, if I, like, thought she wouldn't come back, or if she was, like, too upset."

Lily relaxed a bit.

"She wasn't, like,... Hurt or mad?"

Violet shook her head.

" I don't think she was..."

The redhead sighed and rested her head on the table.

"Oh! Like, Hi Rudy! Want some tea?"

Violet said a second later. Lily looked over her shoulder and saw Rudy. He was naked from the waist up.

"Yes... Thanks..."

He had come to see if Lily was ok. Lily eyed her lover, wondering if he would follow Misty. She knew that he had to have heard what Violet said.

"Thanks,"

He said to Violet, as he sat beside Lily, and a mug was placed in front of him.

"..."

"Well... This, like, isn't awkward at all!"

Violet said sarcastically, after 10 minutes of silence followed. Lily sighed.

"Do you, like, want to go after Misty?"

She asked Rudy. He shook his head.

"She will never see me as more than a friend. As long as she stays clear of large bodies of water she should be ok..."

He said and slid his hand onto Lily's, threading his fingers with hers.

"Misty needs some space, and I don't need to be chasing a girl who is not interested, when I have an interested one right here, who needs to know that I didn't just..."

He paused, both blushing a bit, before he went on.

"- with her, because I needed to get laid..."

He looked at Lily out of the corner of his eye and she smiled.

"Thank you..."

She said, squeezing his hand. He returned the gesture. He did have feelings for her, but, he wasn't sure what or how strong they were.

"I like, have shopping to do!"

Violet said suddenly. They looked at her.

"Like, when you're not so sore, Lily, clean the pool area!"

"Ok..."

"Oh, and if you, like,... YOU KNOW, again... Just, like, not in the kitchen... A bed or bathroom is the best place for that activity!"

She said and giggled at the expressions on their faces. And then, with that said, Violet gathered her money and left, if she had to watch that any longer, she might gag. She thought that Daisy and Tracey were bad... But those two were already getting there. And she didn't know if they were even in love or friends with benefits!

Misty went to visit Daisy and Tracey, she saw Tracey and the twins that Daisy had had prematurely. But Daisy was sleeping and resting. She didn't want to bother her sister, considering everything she was going through. Before heading out, Misty asked Tracey if he needed her to pass on anything to the professor. He shook his head, but then thought of something. He handed her his small travel sized sketch book.

"The Professor said he wanted to see the babies, but, he can't come just yet, and they don't want a camera in the unit with the babies, so..."

He trailed off... Then sighed, and added:

"On top of that, they are so weak, still, that they might not..."

Looking pained, He swallowed thickly and let out a shuddering breath... He trailed off, but left it that way
Misty looked in the book and found some sketches he had made, of his children, and some had Daisy holding them. She closed it and nodded.

"I'll give it to Professor Oak. He'll be happy. He will likely set this in the book shelf with your other sketch books. Do you want me to bring back any art supplies or anything, for you?"

He smiled and suddenly hugged her.

"Thanks, Misty."

"Thanks...? For what?"

"Just because... And, no, I have what art supplies I need with me..."

She nodded and they separated, but she leaned up and kissed him on the cheek.

"Things will work out, Trace."

She whispered as she pulled back, and then left, after putting his book in her bag.

She wanted to try and stay clear of Vermilion city- which she usually took the ferry from, to a stop close to Pallet town. She never thought she would be going out of her way to stay AWAY from the water... But, she knew, even though she hated bug types, the safest place for her to go, would be to circumvent roads and waterways. And that was through the bug-infested Viridian forest.

'Yay! This will be fun.'

She thought dryly, shuddering at the memory of how many bug types were there. But, she couldn't go the way she normally would... So, she passed through Saffron city, and just before she left the city (headed for the forest): a red convertible stopped at a red light near her.

The man in the car, looked to his left and did a double take. He lowered his red rimmed sunglasses, and blinked at her. She was older, her hair longer, but, he was sure of it.

Just as she was about to cross at the crosswalk, pushing her bike as she walked along side it, he maneuvered his car to block her path. She had been lost in her thoughts. Blinking at the car, she looked at the driver. About to give him an earful. Then she closed her mouth and her face softened with realization.

"Scott!?"

He smiled and saluted her.

"Hiya there Misty. Been a while. What are you doing in Saffron city? Are Ash, Brock, May and Max around here too? On another journey?"

She shook her head, smiling at the owner of the battle frontier.

"I'm on my own, I-"

He noticed her hands tighten around her handlebars.

"I... I'm going through Viridian Forest... I need to see Ash's mom and Professor Oak..."

He thought a moment, then pulled out of the way of other cars. She blinked as he parked his car close and then got out, heading over to her.

"Let's get your bike in my car..."

She blinked.

"Why?"

"Your bug-type phobic, right?"

Slowly, she nodded. She was surprised that he remembered. But Ash had talked his ear off about that, with great incredulity, years ago.

"Y-Yeah. But, I couldn't, no, shouldn't impose..."

"I'm going that way anyway. Are you in a hurry?"

She nodded.

"Then we'll get you there faster, this way."

He smiled and she gulped, remembering how he drove, but... it was still better than bug types!

"Thank you..."

She said finally and let him put her bike in his trunk, they had to tie the trunk shut, but finally, they were on their way. She wanted to sit in the back seat, though, which he took no offense at.

Daisy woke up, looking around her room, she saw Tracey.

"Hey..."

She said, he had been reading, he startled a bit.

"Hey yourself. Are you ok?"

She groaned and started to push herself into a sitting position. He hurried to help her.

"I suppose... H-How are the twins?"

She asked, looking into his eyes.

He smiled.

"Actually, a few hours ago, they suddenly started doing better. Right after Misty came to see them."

"She's, like, awake?"

He nodded and she sighed softly.

"She still mad?"

"I don't think so."

"So, like... When will she be back?"

"That, I'm not sure of..."

He scratched his head and she frowned.

"What?"

She asked, knowing he wasn't saying something he should have

"She went to Pallet town..."

Daisy sighed and closed her eyes.

"That girl, like, needs to learn to sit still..."

He laughed softly... Then he sighed out of the laugh. Looking serious.

"Could her visit have helped the babies?"

She sighed, rubbing her temples.

"Honestly, I, like, have no idea."

She said, and shrugged.

Along the way to Ash's home town, Misty was talking to Scott, when suddenly there were the sounds of Pokéballs opening, she found herself sitting with her Psyduck and the pika- no, Mizukachu. Scott blinked in the mirror.

"Is that a BLUE Pikachu?

"I'm not really sure... M- my father left her for me..."

Scott hmmed, curious. The drive was fairly quiet after that, except, she kept hearing things. To her, they sounded like the whisper of waves against the shore. But, she also knew that she could hear voices in it. Faint, very faint.
After a while, she noticed the 'Kachu (as she had taken to referring to it) was staring at her. As they eyed each other, Misty noticed the voices get stronger in her head. That's when she remembered something about understanding Pokémon. But, with everything going on...
Annoyed with herself, she grabbed her cell phone and dialed Dawn's number.

"Hey Misty! Are you ok? Rudy called me a few days ago, told me something had happened to you and that you were in a coma... Or something. Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm Ok- hey, Dawn, still got that book out?"

"No, I had to return it, I'm sorry Misty, but I wasn't sure how long you would be out of it."

Misty closed her eyes and let out a little sigh.

"It's cool. Thanks for staying there, why don't you get back to your own traveling?"

"What if you need help? I could just-"

"No, Dawn, I really appreciate the help. I do. But, things have gotten dangerous and VERY strange... And I'd rather be around people who could take care of themselves better. Not that I'm saying you can't, I just think... Wow, I'm sounding really mean!? Aren't I!?"

In the front seat, Scott chuckled a bit.
Dawn laughed on the other side of the phone.

"Misty, calm down. It's ok. I get it: whatever you've uncovered, it's too big for me, and you're worried that my Pokémon or I, myself, will get hurt?"

"Yeah,"

"I understand, then. Just please text me, every now and then, and let me know your alive?"

Misty smiled.

"That's a deal!"

"Cool. Talk to you later!"

"Same here."

The call was ended after that, Misty sighed. Then she dialed Rudy's number.

"Misty!"

Was his relieved answer.

"Hey Rudy,"

'How are you? After jumping from trying to seduce me, to banging my sister in the pool area?'

She bit back that thought, though. She did not say it out loud. But, she had a feeling that he could hear something like it in her voice.

"Look, Misty, I'm sor-"

"I don't want to hear it, Rudy."

"Ok..."

He said, as Scott looked at the girl through his mirror. He had never heard her sound so cold.

"Anyway,"

Misty said, not even sure why she was annoyed. Maybe it was because she had been about to... With Rudy...
She sighed heavily, and continued, softening her voice.

"Can you please give me Trinity's number?"

"Uh... Sure."

He said, then he gave it to her, she said a short thank you and bye, then called her former friend.
When Trinity answered, Misty didn't say hi, she just said:

"Is Maya there? Can I please speak to my cousin?"

Trinity sputtered a moment, then sighed and handed the phone to Maya.

"Can you tell me the legend of the sea heroes again?"

Maya nodded, then told Misty what she wanted to know:

"It was said, that long ago the Sea Heroes, also called the Water Pokémon Alpha Omega, were expert Water-type Trainers. They lived under the sea and understood the hearts of aquatic Pokémon.
The rituals associated with our people, are considered vital and kept alive to this day, in the form of the whirl cup competition.
They are taught by me, the Sea Priestess, who wields the Great Sea Spirit Sapphire, which enables communication between Water-type Pokémon and humans."

Misty sighed.

"Know anything about a Mizukachu?"

"They are a very rare and very unique type of Pikachu."

"So, my dad showed up, with one..."

"It was your mother's."

"- Ok, I'm feeling strange about this now."

"Didn't your dad explain about the mizuka-?"

"No. Not enough."

Maya sighed.

"So,"

Said Misty, glancing at that the thing beside her.

"Where do they come from?"

"Whirl Islands"

"How come no one knows about them?"

"There's only a handful and they are afraid of people, generally."

"I see..."

"Misty-?"

"What is it?"

"I heard from... Daisy and Tracey, they contacted us about your... A- about what happened, when your dad showed up..."

"That's nice,"

Was all Misty could think to say... It was said a bit coldly.

"I... I'm sorry that we all kept the truth from you... I-"

"What? That I could turn into an inhuman monster like my mother, if they fiddled with my powers and DNA?"

"I... Well... I-"

"That's what I thought."

Misty said, then ended the call.
She saw Scott glance at her over his shoulder, and she sighed.

"For now,"

He said, she glanced back at him.

"I won't ask, for now."

She nodded and blinked as the Mizukachu climbed into her lap and curled up.
Sighing, she started running her fingers through its fur. The day was getting late now, so Scott started looking for a Pokémon center for them. They would be in pallet town tomorrow...
