Grey blinked and growled as Thor and I held him down. Storm growled and glared as Sophie and Marie, a Samurott morph, held him down as well. Kitty was egging them on to fight, and Cookie was waggling her fingers, trying to go into 'God Mode'. Thank god she didn't, or we could have been dead.

"Come on, battle it out. Show me what ya got," Kitty said, flying around. I rolled my eyes and kneed Grey in the ribs, knocking his breath out of him and forcing him to cough. He glowered at me.

"We are on the run, Grey, Storm. We can't just battle here with Team Anathema and that fucker, Eon behind us," I said. Kitty realized this well as well and nodded, stopping her cheering. Then, we stopped holding the two insane males down, when Cookie asked, "What's a fucker?" with wide, innocent eyes.

"Umm," I said, as everyone else looked at me. I blushed, and Cookie, being the kid, asked, "What is it?"

"It comes from a naughty word, kid," Kitty said, "So don't say it."

"Oh so it came from Malachi's favorite word… Fuck," she merrily said. We all groaned, and I realized I had corrupted her 'innocent' mind.

Just then, Grey raised his horn, which glowed, and slashed at Storm with it. Sophie ran up to the Tentacruel morph, but he gently pushed her aside and clutched his bloody arm. Thor got up to stop and hold down Grey, but a Poison Jab from Storm to his gut stopped him. Storm glowered at Grey and wrapped his tentacles around Grey's neck, essentially suffocating him. Grey choked, gasped, and spluttered, and then let a black ball loose from his mouth.

They both went to separate sides of the cave and stared each other down. Then, Storm raised his tentacles to a jabbing motion and brought it on Grey. Grey slashed the glowing purple tentacles and severed them, causing a toxic sludge to come out from them. Storm yelled in pain and retreated his tentacles back into his back, and both settles for fist fighting instead.

"We will settle this fist to fist," Storm said, rushing at Grey and punching his jaw. Grey retaliated by kicking his shin.

"Shouldn't we stop them?" Cookie asked, looking scared. I shook my head, realizing they needed to settle this between them.

Storm punched Grey in the gut, knocking the breath out of them, but Grey retaliated again, by punching his eye, Storm once again tried suffocating Grey by wrapping his hands around Grey's neck, but he punched Storm in the stomach. Storm jumped backwards and readied another Poison Jab, from his now healed tentacles. Grey readied a Night Slash from his horn. Then, I realized it… If they attacked each other, they might even kill each other.

I yelled, "STOP!" and ran in between the two attacks. The Night Slash cut my arm, causing excruciating pain to shoot up through my now broken hand. The jab hit my stomach, causing my breath to leave me. Grey screamed my name and Storm looked startled that I had jumped in the onslaught. My vision blurred and then, I felt myself falling backwards. I knew nothing more.

When I woke up, I still felt paroxysms of pain shooting through my body. Grey's face was over mine, and Storm was pressing my chest, which just sounded really awkward, I know. I gasped a little as Grey placed his mouth over mine, trying to… Kiss me. My healed arm reacted on its own, punching his stomach. He groaned and doubled over, as I got up and I glowered at him.

"What the hell, Grey?! You found me unconscious and you decided to take advantage of me! And the rest of you didn't stop him!"

"He was only giving you mouth to mouth. You weren't breathing," Sophie said, as Thor helped him up. Then, I realized why Storm was giving me chest compressions. He somehow knew CPR.

"Oh um sorry about the punch," I said, smiling sheepishly as I got up. My clothing was ripped from where the attacks hit and a bruise had formed over the area where my stomach should be. Thankfully, it was a small one. On my arm, a deep gash to the bone was visible, but was bound by Sammy's scarf to stop the bleeding.

"Oh shit," I said, looking at my injuries. I realized how light headed I was feeling from the loss of blood.

"Thank god you can regenerate faster than a human… Or we would have lost you thank to these idiots," Marie said, glaring at the two. Storm looked passive, but I could see the worry in his eyes, and Grey looked apologetically at me. I instantly forgave them, but I did not know why I did.

TIMESKIP One Month

I noticed that the injuries were already healing at a rapid pace. Thor was carrying me around, as we ventured further away from Team Anathema's base. We were lucky we were in the mountainous region and could find caves to live in, given that we were on the run. I would stay with Grey, Storm with Sophie, Thor with Kitty, and Cookie with Marie, in the larger manmade caves with multiple subdivisions. We had found Uriah on the run as well, and Uriah had taken to following Marie around everywhere. It was rather cute actually.

We had gotten some supplies from stealing from the small towns we passed through. A couple of blankets, some food, and new clothes. But, we mostly stayed in the outskirts of towns and only stole from those residents.

Currently, my injuries were almost healed and I was lying next to Grey. Grey was wrapping my arm with Sammy's scarf again so the bone stayed in place. I softly gave a groan as I felt pain shoot up my left arm.

"Thanks," I said. He lied down next to me and took his shirt off. I noticed the muscular physique he had and couldn't help but stare. While the light was dim from the fire Thor had set up for us, I could still see his features very clearly.

"Like what you see?" Grey said, with a smirk. I blushed and looked away, realizing I had been staring for too long.

"N-no," I stuttered. He walked up closer to me and took his shirt off.

"There is nothing wrong in it. You are a girl and I am a guy. It is natural," he said, "Plus our types are compatible."

"Grey…" I said, "You were the one who said that love was unnecessary. I don't want to mate for your convenience, if we can even do it."

"But it is not for my convenience. People can change Thea." This was the first time he had called me by my nickname. "And so can Pokemorphs… It is just that, I don't know what I feel anymore. I don't like it."

"Why don't you tell me?" I asked.

"Ever since you were taken by Eon to be his 'wife,' I felt so lost and alone. I thought you liked him more than me, given how you looked up to him. Then, after we escaped, I knew how I felt once Storm and my attacks met and you nearly died. I did not want to lose you, not ever. It was then that I realized that love for one another is what ties tis group together. And, I realized my love for you."

I blinked. And stared. And then started laughing. Sorry, I couldn't help it. That was the sappiest love line I have heard from the normally calm and elusive Grey. In fact, that was the only one I heard.

Grey glared at me as I began to choke. He gently thumped by back, and I looked at him.

"Sorry, that was the worst line I have heard yet…" I said.

"Should have known you wouldn't feel the same way… Stupid, stupid, stupid." I heard him mutter.

"What makes you think I don't feel the same way?" I asked. He grinned and wrapped his arms around me, taking me into a deep kiss. What happened after that was the result from two overenthusiastic adults and a romantic night…

The next morning, I heard footsteps around me. I looked up and was about to nudge Grey awake, when the blanket fell off. I noticed Thor, who bore a giant smirk, and rubbed my tired eyes. He then said, "Looks like you two had an eventful night…"

I looked down, noticing that the only um… "clothing" was my vest and a blanket… Then, I screamed at him to get out, firing a Shadow Ball at him. He ran out, still bearing that smirk on his face. (A/N: I will leave it to you to figure out what happened… I am NOT describing anything anymore!)
