Jun: Hi everyone, (´▽`)ﾉ hope you're doing well.
This chapter was one of my ideas inspired by there being no Pokemon crossover for this pairing (that I could find)
The request status is still in the summary box.
On with the chapter (^_^)／
Mikado jumped when he heard a screech behind him. Oh, why did he let himself be talked into this! It was called the 'Forbidden Forest: Trainers Beware' for a reason Mikado! Why didn't he just listen to the sign!
He had been dared by some girl named Anri that if he could catch five pokemon in the Forbidden Forest he would give Mikado a free Masterball. Arceus help him.
He caught three pokemon so far, but at this point Mikado didn't care about the Masterball, he just wanted to get out of here alive.
And he was lost. Painfully, painfully lost. Anyone on his team that could help had fainted and he was out of revives.
Hopefully if he kept walking he'd run into a low-level pokemon that could help him.
A deep, menacing hiss stopped him in his tracks. Oh, this can't be good. A scary arbok slithered out of the bushes circling Mikado like he was prey.
Mikado checked his pokedex for information and mentally screamed in horror. This arbok was too powerful for his team. They'll be down in seconds!
Mikado tried to run, but the arbok hissed and snapped at him, keeping the trainer in its circle. Mikado felt bad as he called out his pokemon. Hopefully his team would understand if they make it out alive.
It didn't take more than five minutes for the arbok to one hit K.O. what was left of his team. Mikado trembled as he tried to back away.
Tears stream down his face as he stared up at the arbok. He was dead! He was so, so dead!
Mikado's world narrowed to the arbok as he became transfixed by face on the arbok's hood. He couldn't move! He couldn't even blink! The arbok coiled around the teen, binding him in place. Mikado internally screamed as the arbok bared its fangs and lunged.
The arbok was tackled by something large and orange. It let go of Mikado and the teen tumbled to the ground. Mikado choked on a shriek as the largest arcanine and liepard Mikado had ever seen challenged the arbok.
The arbok hiss angrily, furious that someone got in the way of him and his prey. The liepard looked completely unimpressed and used Night Slash on it. The arbok gave a cry and fainted.
Mikado stared. Dear Arceus, what were these pokemon?
The arcanine looked like it could eat rapidashes for breakfast, it was as big as a truck!...And it had a black bow tie and human sunglasses?
The liepard wasn't as big as the arcanine, but it was big for it's kind. A normal sized liepard's shoulders would come just above a persons knee, but this liepard's almost came up to Mikado's hips...And had a black and tan fur-lined jacket on.
The teen curled into himself and cry harder when the two pokemon turned on him. Forget what he said earlier, now he was dead!
He clenched his eyes closed waiting for his imminent death. Nothing happened and Mikado carefully glanced up. His vision was a bit blurred from his crying, but he could still make out the arcanine and liepard sitting on their haunches staring down at him.
"U-Uh, n-nice pokemon?" Mikado whimpered when he felt two snouts sniff him. The arcanine was closest to him so he carefully held his hand toward the pokemon. Maybe if he showed how weak he was they wouldn't hurt him? The shades-wearing pokemon gave him a considering look before sniffing his hand.
Seeing the arcanine didn't growl or anything, Mikado cautiously and very lightly started to pet the dog like pokemon. Mikado saw the arcanine tense and thought it was going to rip his arm off, but after a while the pokemon slowly and hesitantly relaxed.
Mikado got a lap full of lax, orange pokemon -nearly crushing the teen- when Mikado scratched the place behind the pokemon's ear.
The teen panicked at the arcanine's sudden movement making the pokemon nudged Mikado's arm demanding the tiny human to pet it more.
Arcanine and Liepard were sparring with each other when they heard a human yelling. It was unusual for humans to make it this far into the forest.
When they got to the scene they saw a human child battling against an arbok. Liepard smirked at the now crying human. "Aw look at him. He looks like a crying little emolga." He said to Arcanine.
Arcanine looked at Liepard with a 'what the hell is wrong with you?' face. They watched as the arbok bound the human, ready to eat him. "Should we do something?"
"Meh, sure. I want to make him cry even more~"
Arcanine rolled his eyes and tackled the arbok. Arbok hissed at the two pokemon. "Hey! He's my pray! Get your own, fuckers!"
"Shut up." Liepard sighed like the pokemon was a waste of his time and used Night Slash.
The little trainer curled into himself with his eyes closed. Arcanine and Liepard sat down waiting for him. They expected the trainer to run screaming or cry harder.
Liepard flicked his tail in interest when the human did neither. Well, he was still crying. But he stared at them before offering his hand to Arcanine.
"U-uh, n-nice pokemon?" The little human stuttered.
Arcanine decided to humor the human but stay guarded. He was ready to tear him to shreds when the trainer dared to touch him, but the touch started to feel a bit...nice. And he just melted when the human scratched that spot he could never reach.
Arcanine plopped down on the human encouraging him to keep petting.
Mikado continued to pet the arcanine. Does this mean he wasn't food?
Eventually the liepard slinked over to them and wrapped itself around the teen's back, it's head next to the arcanine's on his lap.
The liepard stared up at Mikado expectantly like it was obvious it demanded attention to. It batted at Mikado's face with its paw telling him to hurry up.
Mikado tentatively started stroking down the liepard's spine. The liepard arched into the petting and threw an arm across Mikado's stomach, keeping him in place. Not that he could go anywhere with the arcanine on him. The liepard was letting out a light growling sound that Mikado really hoped was supposed to be purring.
The teen leaned back against the liepard and snuggled into the pokemon's warmth. So he wasn't going to die, hopefully. Mikado felt his heart rate calm down a bit and his tears stop. He wiped away the tears on his face. He was still pretty terrified of the gigantic, scary, what evil gave them permission to be this big, pokemon but at least things had calmed down.
Mikado grimaced at how fuzzy his head felt from crying. He was going to have to sleep that off. The teen let out a yawn and caught a glimpse of the sky. That was a pretty color of orange. Wait.
Mikado jumped startling the two pokemon cuddling him. He was lost! He was still trapped in a mysterious forest with no way out!
He shooed away the jacket covered paw batting at him again. "I don't suppose you know out of this forest." Mikado muttered rhetorically.
The arcanine actually nodded at Mikado who blinked. "Really?" Another nod. Mikado felt his hope rise.
"You know how to get to the town?"
A shrug and then a nod.
Mikado embraced the shades wearing pokemon the best he could. "Pleaseohpleaseohpleaseohplease help me! I got lost- and now I don't know how to get back to town- please! You can just point me in the right direction! I'll walk from there!"
The arcanine and liepard seemed to have a silent conversation before the arcanine grunted. He used his mouth to grab Mikado by the back of his shirt and lift the teen onto his back.
The liepard jump up behind Mikado, bracing his front two paws against Mikado's shoulders. Mikado nearly fell over from the weight but managed to hold on.
Careful of its load, the arcanine stood tall and proud before running off in the direction Mikado hoped was the exit.
With the arcanine's massive size, Mikado wasn't surprised at the alarming speed the pokemon ran. They rode peacefully as the sky turned from orange to purple. Though he could have gone without the liepard behind him grooming his hair with its tongue.
Mikado hesitantly patted the arcanine on the shoulder to get his attention. "Uhm, Mr. Arcanine? Maybe we can stop and make camp? I have some food we can eat if you want some."
The arcanine grunted again and stopped at a relatively small area of grass. Mikado gathered firewood with the liepard's help and asked the arcanine to light it.
With the arcanine laying down, Mikado dug his blanket out and carefully laid down against the pokemon's side. They were still heart attack scary. But they were warm and Mikado was too tired to pitch a tent.
The liepard draped itself over Mikado, stretched, used his front paws to hug Mikado closer, and started head bunting the teen. Mikado swatted at the pokemon when he tried grooming his hair again.
Once everyone was settled, Mikado dug out the poffins he brought and handed them out. His companions seemed to enjoy them. The teen observed them while eating his own snack.
"Maybe I should give you guys names. Just until this is over. Are you both male?"
The teen hummed when both nodded. Mikado played with the jacket wearing pokemon's hood. Mikado pulled the furry hood over the liepard's head. "Hmm. How about, Izaya?"
The liepard considered it for a moment before nodding. Newly dubbed Izaya went back to eating the tasty poffins.
The teen turned to the arcanine and messed with the its mane while he thought. "How about you be...Shizuo?" Newly dubbed Shizuo didn't seem to care and grunted.
Happy with his decision, Mikado slowly drifted off to sleep listening to the nocturnal pokemon with Shizuo and Izaya following.
Early the next morning Mikado woke up with a heart attack before remembering what happened yesterday.
Shizuo started sniffing the trainer confused as to what he was doing. Both stared at each other until the glasses wearing pokemon gave Mikado a giant lick across the face.
"AH! B-Bleh-oh that's so gross!" Sputtered Mikado making Shizuo and Izaya laugh.
After putting out the fire Shizuo had kept going all night they continued on their way. They rode for a few hours before the forest started to thin out and the route appeared.
Mikado smiled as he saw the town up ahead. They made it!
The teen slid off Shizuo with Izaya when they reached the edge of the forest and hugged them tightly. "Thank you guys soooooo much! I can't thank you enough. You guys are amazing!"
Izaya and Shizuo puffed up at Mikado's praise. Mikado buried his face in their fur. "I'll never forget you guys. I hope we can meet again one day."
The two pokemon looked confusedly at Mikado when he pulled away. What was the human child talking about? Did he think he was going to leave them? Stupid little human. If they let him leave they wouldn't have anyone to lavish them with attention.
Mikado let out a confused sound when the scary pokemon started nudging him. Shizuo nudged Mikado until the teen was sitting on the ground and Izaya rummaged through his backpack.
He was even more confused when Izaya pulled two pokeballs out of his bag. What would he want with those? Mikado watched wide eyed as Shizuo and Izaya forced their way into the pokeballs!
"No! No, no! Wait! Oh my Arceus- don't you want to go back to the forest- bad pokemon-get out of the pokeball!" Mikado panicked. Sure he liked them, but holy miltank they were scary! He didn't know what he would do with two incredibly scary pokemon!
Shizuo and Izaya, of course, didn't care what Mikado thought and forced their way into the devices. The pokeballs shook three times before pinging in success.
The trainer stared in horror at the innocent pokeballs. He. Was. Doomed.
Maybe he could transfer them to Prof. Oak?...Never mind. They'd eat the poor old man instantly.
Mikado grabbed his new pokemon and retraced his steps to the hotel he found the other day. Finally finding the building, he surprisingly ran into the very person that put his life in danger.
"Anri!" Mikado calls. Anri looked at him and froze.
"Hi...You're alive…"
"...Were you expecting me to be dead?"
"I actually didn't think you would go into the forest let alone stay the night… Here." Anri handed Mikado the Masterball. "Just...take it...Sorry."
Anri tried to touch his shoulder but a bright red light glowed behind her and she was swatted out of the way. She stared up at the angry arcanine and liepard in human accessories growling at her menacingly.
Bystanders gasped in shock at the sudden appearance of the pokemon and some even ran. Though one child in the background squealed, "Big Doggy!"
Anri quickly fled the scene. Mikado soothed his pokemons bristled fur. "Now why did you do that? That wasn't very nice."
Again Shizuo and Izaya ignored him and the arcanine scanned the crowd for any brave souls that dared to touch their trainer/attention giver.
Izaya patted at the shoulder that was about to be touched like he was trying to wipe dust off of it. Deeming their job finished they gave Mikado goodbye kisses and went back in their poke balls.
"Hey you over there! Get back here!"
Mikado yelped and ran away from the mass of pokemon trainers wanting to battle him.
