Chapter 14: Gary's future (This chapter is particularly rated M for mature, viewer discretion is advised)

Gary was in the dorm buildings hot springs relaxing in the warm water.

He let Popplio rest in his room after the long day of training and was there alone.

Moments later heard someone else enter and saw it was Mallow.

"I thought you'd be here babe." Mallow saw as Gary saw her in her usual skimpy bikini and her hair down.

"Well training was unusually hard today so the warm water is helping me unwind."

"Maybe I can help a little more." Mallow said as she rested herself on Gary's chest while putting horehounds on his back before kissing him.

As they kissed Mallow's eyes opened as she felt Gary's tongue enter her mouth.

"Tongue kissing, you sly rockruff." She said smiling and blushing.

"What can I say, you've gotten me to unwind and enjoy life." Gary said as he put his hand on her cheek and kissed Mallow again.

She blushed even more.

"I'm glad you think that way, because I've also been thinking. After we thought Ash was killed, it made me realize how short life can be." She said moving her hands from his back to underwater.

Mallow's face turned even redder as she gave a sly expression.

"And that we really should live it to the fullest." Gary felt a little strange in his lower body before he saw Mallow stand up holding his swim trunks.

His face shot red as he gave a crestfallen look.

"What are you doing!?"

Mallow gave a sly look as she stuck the trunk's inside against her face and smiled them.

"Living life to the fullest." She said before tossing them out of the spring.

Gary reached for them until he realized Mallow would see him naked.

He then shook as he saw Mallow untie the back of her bikini top and toss it next to his swim trunks.

"Mmmallow." Gary said as she covered her breasts with her arms crossed while smiling with her eyes shut.

Mallow turned around and backed up until her rump was right in front of Gary's face.

Mallow reached down to the sides of her bikini bottom and pulled it down slowly revealing her cheeks to Gary who was still shaking.

Mallow stepped out of her bottom and turned around with her naked body before him.

Gary's face was right in front of the area between her legs.

"I had it waxed just for you baby." Mallow said as she sat down and wrapped her arms around Gary's shoulders and her legs around his waist.

"Let's go all the way." She said in a passionate tone before coming forward and kissing him again.

Gary couldn't resist himself any longer he kissed Mallow back , putting his tongue into her mouth as he moved his hands onto her chest, grasping her there as she moaned a little in his mouth.

Gary moved his hands from Mallow's chest to her back and then lower until they were around her rump.

He squeezed her there tightly as she kissed him harder, thrusting her lower body onto his waist.

The following morning Gary slowly awoke and found himself in a bed that wasn't his own.

He saw he was in one of the empty dorm rooms that nobody was currently in and saw Mallow asleep beside him.

He realized they had had sex the night before and held his head.

"Oh shit, what have I done." He said before Mallow awoke.

She yawned before smiling and coming over to Gary.

"Morning baby." She said putting her hands on his cheeks and kissing him.

"Mallow, we had sex, we actually had sex in the spring and this room."

"I know, you were amazing. So passionate and exciting."

"Mallow this is huge what if I got you pregnant? What if I?"

"Easy there Gary, I took a pill last night in preparation, this room is on the other side of the dorm buildings, Moon sleeps in empty rooms too when she wants a change of pace. We're fine in here, it's only seven ten so we have some time to rest." Mallow said as she climbed on top of his body and laid down.

Gary was still a little freaked out by the fact that he had done it with Mallow, but tried to calm down as she kissed him and carefully felt up his chest.

Later that morning at breakfast, Gary was sitting down with his hands over his mouth.

He was still trying to wrap his head around what happened last night with Mallow.

"Gary you ok?" Ash asked.

"Me, yeah I'm fine, I'm more than fine."

"You seem a little dazed." Moon said.

Gary saw Mallow sitting beside him and turned back to Moon.

"I just had uh…..trouble sleeping last night."

"I hope not too much, Samson likes to make every day's training harder than the last." Red said.

Gary sweat dropped.

After finishing breakfast Mallow was in her room getting ready for class when she heard a knock on the door.

Mallow turned to see Gary standing there.

"Oh hey baby , is everything alright?"

"Yeah we need to talk about last night."

"Oh my god , I didn't steal your virginity did I? Oh geez I never even considered." Mallow said holding her mouth.

"No, you didn't, it's just you kind of surprised me is all."

"What you didn't want to have sex?"

"I, no , yes, ahg." Gary said holding his head.

"I don't know, I wasn't expecting us to have sex already. We've only been together a few weeks."

"Did you want to wait for marriage or something? There's nothing wrong with that."

"No I. God I don't know."

Mallow sighed.

"Maybe I did come on a little strong last night, if it seems like I pressured you into it I'm sorry."

"I just need time to think about this."

"Ok, well we better get to class then." Mallow said as to Gary's surprise when she walked out she still took his hand like she normally did.

In class Kukui was going over the fire pokemon in depth.

"So the idea of a Charmander's tail flame going out will kill them is not true, it does however cause them great pain, and severe drop in energy."

Charmeleon looked at his own tail flame and wasn't sure to be relieved or concerned.

"That's all for today in the classroom, outside the classroom I want you to go into the rainforest again and look for more pokemon."

"I wish we could go together Gary, maybe I could wait until you're done with training." Mallow said.

Gary looked nervous.

"Uh no you don't have to do that. Go ahead without me."

"Alright I'll see you tonight." Mallow said before giving him a short kiss on the lips.

Gary sweat dropped, still feeling a bit confused.

Training that day was difficult for him with everything going on in his head.

"Alright that's enough training for today everyone." Samson said as the Zyurangers felt more fatigued than usual.

"That's funny, it felt shorter than usual." Hau said.

"That's because it was." Moon said.

"Oh right."

"Half as long but twice as fast. Feel free to do Kukui's assignment" Samson said.

Gary wanted to talk with someone about this, but who. Hau was too immature, he didn't know Kiawe well enough, he wouldn't talk to a girl about it, not Red, that left one person.

"Oh boy." Gary said.

Ash was in his dorm room changing when he heard a knock on the door.

"Red you don't need to knock." Ash said before he saw it was Gary.

"Gary what are you doing here?"

"Ash, I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I need to ask you about something, personal."

Ash and Pikachu gave uncomfortable looks. sweat dropping.

"Umm, wouldn't you rather talk about this with Mallow?"

"That's the point, I can't. Look are you a virgin?"

Ash and Pikachu gave crestfallen expressions.

"Gary that's not really any of your business."

"I just need to know man!"

"Gary I can only sweat drop so much. Fine if you have to know, I haven't done it yet. I was saving myself for marriage. It's for a personal reason so don't ask more."

"You know I'm not a virgin right."

"Yes, I specifically remember you brining it up to me when we were sixteen and you told me you did it with the girl from Viridian city."

Gary sweat dropped.

"Ok the thing is, Mallow and I did it last night."

"Wait a minute, are you saying this whole time you just wanted to have sex with Mallow and now you don't know how to break up with her?"

"No! I'm not like that! I didn't just do it with Misty and break up with her."

"Oh yeah didn't she cheat on you with that guy from the Orange islands."

Gary gave an angry expression.

"Orange haired bitch."

"Sorry, what's the problem then?"

"I don't know, I mean I feel like I went too fast with Misty and did it when I shouldn't have. I've always tried to think about my future and work towards greatness. Am I being reckless doing this?"

Ash took a deep breath.

"Did you bring any of this up with Mallow?"

"Yes, sort off. She seemed strangely ok with it. I mean she didn't treat me any differently today."

"Gary, just because I want to wait for marriage, it's not my place to tell other people how to live their lives. I personally think you probably should have waited for marriage, but it's none of my business. Let me ask you something, why are you with Mallow?"

Gary thought for a moment.

"Well she's a really sweet and nice girl. She's always in a good mood and I won't lie It was really nice how she didn't seem upset I was freaked out by us doing it and didn't treat me any differently at the idea of us not doing it anymore, she's clearly not just some slut. There's some other stuff too."

"Ok well you clearly have a reason to be with her Gary. Why don't you take some time to think about it when you're in the rainforest, clear your head."

"That's a good idea, I'll do that." Gary said as he walked out.

Ash shook his head as he turned to Pikachu.

Gary went into the rainforest walking beside a stream with Popplio swimming beside him.

Gary looked at the happy and almost careless expression of Popplio and was a little envious of his pokemon.

As they kept moving through the rainforest Gary was trying to think about his situation with Mallow, his future as a trainer, not to mention as a Zyuranger. Plus complete his assignment.

As Gary continued with Popplio in the water he heard something over him and looked up as his eyes widened.

A large Salamence flew overheard and landed somewhere ahead of them.

"A , a Salamence! That's an extremely rare and powerful pokemon. Popplio we're going to find him!" Gary shouted in excitement as he quickly picked up Popplio in his arms.

"Let's go!" He shouted before he saw another pokemon in front of him.

A small Salandit stood in front of Gary and Popplio looking up at them.

Gary looked down at Salandit before walking around her , trying to find the Salamence.

Gary looked high and low but found no sign of the Salamence, eventually stopping for a breather, letting Popplio swim in the stream.

He took a deep breath.

"Ok I can do this, I can find that Salamence. If I could catch a pokemon like that and combine it's natural power with my training he'll be unstoppable." Gary said as he got up and picked up Popplio again.

"Come on Popplio." Gary said as Popplio tried to swim around some more.

"We need to find that Salamence." Gary said as he finally got Popplio in his arms and tried to move when he saw the same Salandit in front of him.

"You again? Uhhg I don't have time for this!" Gary shouted as he kept searching for the Salamence.

Gary kept searching the rainforest up and down but found no sign of the Salamence.

He sat down taking a deep breath before he heard something.

Gary looked up and saw the Salamence flying.

"There you are!" Gary shouted before he tried to run after him, but didn't see a pokemon in front of him as he tripped over the pokemon, face planting.

He got up and saw the Salamence was gone.

He held his head as he got up and screamed in frustration.

He looked down and saw it was the same Salandit as before.

"You!" He screamed as he went over and banged his head against a tree.

He went over to the water.

"I can't catch any good pokemon, I'll never get a good team, and I'll never rise to greatness."

"Popplio!" He heard as he turned to see Popplio swimming around happily in the water.

He watched him move through the water and get closer to a group of rocks.

Popplio just kept swimming towards them carelessly.

"Hey Popplio look out!"

Popplio stopped in front of the rocks and carefully swam through them, not looking careless as he did so but then swam back looking happy again.

Gary looked at how Popplio handled that. He didn't pay so much attention to what was ahead of him, he enjoyed where he was and made the most out of hid life at the time.

Gary realized this is what Mallow had been trying to tell him since they met and why he was afraid of their relationship. Because he had always been so focused on their future that when she did it with him last night , he was not sure what the future of their relationship would be.

That's not why he felt attracted to Mallow, he felt attracted to her because she had gotten him to relax and enjoy his life as live in the moment instead of thinking only of the future.

Gary smiled as he turned to the Salandit.

He gave a more confident expression as the Salandit gave a cocky expression.

"You're no Salamence, but you'll do. You're my next pokemon. Popplio use Water gun!"

Popplio leapt up out of the water and blasted at the Salandit who jumped back.

Salandit unleashed a thick cloud of poison gas towards Popplio.

"Go underwater."

Popplio quickly swam underwater as Salandit watched carefully.

"Disarming voice." Gary said as Popplio leapt up and unleashed a sweet sounding voice that made Salandit shake as she unleashed some embers.

"Pound."

With the embers weakened, Popplio was able to effortlessly knock them aside with his tail before knocking Salandit into the air.

"Water gun!"

"Popplio!" Popplio blasted Salandit's underside , hurling her a few feet away.

"Pokeball go!" Gary shouted as he hurled a pokeball forward.

The pokeball hit Salandit and sent her inside, the pokeball shaking and flashing before it stopped.

"Yes, I caught her." Gary said before he noticed Popplio glow and begin growing.

"No way."

When Popplio stopped , he was larger than before with white and pale blue ruffles around his waiste, bigger black eyes, and white tipped fins.

"Brionne."

"Brionne, I have a Brionne." Gary said sounding confident.

Later that night, Mallow walked into her room and shut the door behind her.

She noticed a note on her bed and opened it , seeing it was from Moon.

"Sleeping in another room."

Mallow heard the bathroom door open as she turned to see Gary standing there in just a towel on.

"Gary." She said blushing.

"I've done some thinking today. I'm tired of being so fixated on the future, I want to live here and now, with you." Gary said as he came over to Mallow and put his arms around her, giving her a big kiss.

"If you still want to Mallow." Gary said as Mallow quickly grabbed his towel and pulled it off.

She resumed kissing him as the two got onto Mallow's bed, Mallow undoing her overalls and pulling her shirt off.

Mallow sat up as Gary up close, undoing her bra before Mallow laid down on her stomach.

Gary saw for the first time Mallow had been wearing a thong.

"You naughty girl you." Gary said.

"I need some punishment." Mallow said as she rubbed her behind.

Gary pulled her thong down and off her legs before feeling her rump up for a minute.

Mallow came back around and wrapped her body around Gary's laying him down as she kissed him and he kissed her back.

Author's note

For those of you wondering, What I presented in this chapter is not what I'd consider a lemon, lemons are much more explicit and dirty than this, future love scenes will be similar in nature to this chapter
