(Silence Bridge, Route 12 | May 14th | 7:00 p.m.)
"Damn it. I can't believe I took a three-hour snooze!" Crimson said as they were running on the bridge. "Why didn't you stop me?"
"It was a nice day…and your yawn was infectious." Rusty said sheepishly. "That Rocket Grunt was an annoying wake up call."
Crimson rolled his eyes. He did not expect to see Carmine of all people, but he made sure it was the last time.
"Ugh, this bridge. If it wasn't so open, I'd break out Red Bullet." Crimson remarked.
"Why can't you just fly?" Dex Bulma suggested.
"While I am working on that. I rather not get shot out of the sky…" Crimson snarked as he came to a stop. "But I think riding on Kimiko is a better idea?"
Crimson returned Swish and sent out Kimiko getting on her back before they took the skies. Rusty followed suit with Alta Maria with Joe having Jian carry him and Sissi. The trainers just took in the quiet night sky.
"By flight, you should be getting to the end of this route in an hour. Shall I message Roulette for you?" Dex Bulma asked as Crimson replied yes. "On it."

(Crimson City | May 14th | 7:00 p.m.)
Ash in settling in for the night at the Pokémon Center having spent the day training and cruising around the city. He missed his Charizard, but it seemed Shiroi clearly adored him. It melted his heart to see that. The day had worked out pretty well having a new capture which led to a trade. A Primeape that he traded for a Hitmonlee. The person he traded it to was in of a punchier Pokémon, and Ash was willing to oblige. Sure, Hitmonlee had a nickname of 'Flexor', but Ash could live with it. He shopped around while Giselle went off to investigate the ruined Power Plant.
Brock? He was in the midst of being beaten up by Officer Jenny…and enjoying it way too much.
"Well everyone, training together was really productive. You all did great…and I'm happy to see Flexor be welcomed warmly." Ash said.
"So, you all sense this man has aura, right?" Flexor asked his compatriots.
"It's his most attractive feature, that deep well with innocent eyes." Shiroi said lustfully.
"For Arecus's sake, he's human and your trainer." Pikachu said disturbed.
"Pikachu, that's...might that make even more awkward." Pidgeot said as Shiroi had little hearts in his eyes.
"I miss Charizard." Blastoise said.
"I'm back." Giselle said entering the room.
"How was it?" Ash asked.
"Utter ruins. Whatever Joe and Zapdos did…tore up the place. I did capture a Mangeton. Remember that Thunder Stone I found?" Giselle asked as Ash nodded. "Well thing attracts it with magnetism and evolves. I didn't even know it could do that."
"At this point, I need a serious upgrade to my PokéDex." Ash said dryly.
"Well, at least I got some move tutors to teach it some moves. And then there's my mother…she called me today." Giselle said getting quiet.
"What'd she want?"
"She's leaving Kanto to join my father…" Giselle said sitting on the bed.
"What's he like?" Ash asked.
"He's only good in small doses. He's a bit more focused on his career than raising me." Giselle remarked. "He plays sports in Unova. He was from Kanto too, but always itched to get out to chase his dream."
"You think she's going to stay?" Ash asked innocently.
"I actually wouldn't really be surprised if she did." Giselle said thinking about what she would do if she really did leave. "I just don't really know what to do with myself. Going on this journey with Brock…with you has really made me realize I had my head stuck up my own ass. I've seen nearly half of Kanto…and it has me thinking of what am I going to do next after this is done."
"You're overthinking it." Ash said comforting her. "You've had a long day. Get some rest."

(Lazuli Town, Zero Island | May 14th | 8:22 p.m.)
[Cues: MAITRO – Kame House]
Crimson did not except to meet Mei Hatsume, or discover she was a rising star for the company he practically owned. Not that he minded, Mei was fun and eager to show him around Zero Island. However, she only had so much time on her hands.
"Tempting as it would be battle you or stay, I must return to the Sevii Islands. The board just wanted you to get another of your father's assets that are rightfully yours." Mei said giving him a key. "There's a condominium that your father used for coming here on business. The Triton Tower."
Mei made her leave rather dramatically as a jetpack tore out from under her suit jacket as she took off flying into the skies!
"Damn! We have jetpacks now?!" Joe said.
"Joe, we can ride our Pokémon. And we can just learn to fly on our own like Crimson…I'm pretty close to getting that down." Rusty remarked as Joe pouted.
"Jetpacks are still cool, though. Let's just find a center." Joe said.
"Hate to burst your bubble, but I really do want to. There's no Pokémon Center on the island, at least a public one. There is a Pokémon Clinic, privately owned. The Healing Haus." Dex Stocking said as Crimson spotted it.
The place was a posh place clearly saying to the customers that you better have money or get out. The receptionist took one at them and rolled her eyes.
"Welcome to the Healing Haus, where we treat your Pokémon. How can I help you?"
"Just the standard treatment and once over for our Pokémon, how much for quick session?" Crimson asked.
"One Pokémon is about 500 Pokédollars."
Crimson used his Dex to transmit 15k and they all got their Pokémon checked out. The doctor was nice enough even if he was a bit of an oddball. The group left with healed Pokémon and a bit of thought of what to do in the town.
"I'm going to check out the shops." Sissi said splitting off from the group. "I'll call if I need you."
"I'm going to check out the shops, but for herbal meds. I know most people and Pokémon don't like that too much…but if I can cook it up. I may be able to put something better tasting out of it." Rusty said before asking if anyone wanted anything from there.
"A half dozen Power Herbs and White Herbs. I'll call it even on the med bill." Crimson remarked as Rusty nodded.
"I'm going to see if there's a restaurant." Joe said walking off on his own.
Crimson was all alone and he sighed.
"I miss Misty." Crimson said to himself as he sent out his ever-faithful Gengar out to walk with him.
"It has literally only been a week since she split." Dex Bulma said.
"I know, but we had good banter." Crimson mused before sensing her. "And she's nearby…along with someone else I have the desire to deck."
He took off with Morticia flying behind him. Their destination they found themselves at was a bar, the Salty Spitoon. Crimson could not believe it either as Minori was there trying only for the guy in front to be in her way. A human version of the ever-memetic fish, Rick.
"Welcome to the Salty Spitoon, how tough are you?" Rick asked Minori.
"How tough? I beat the legendary Black Dr-"
"Bullshit." Crimson said surprising her.
She whirled around only to get grabbed by her collar.
"By the way, where's my money?" Crimson asked Minori as she looked like she wanted to piss herself.
"I don't hav…AAAAHHHHH!" Minori said before being hurled into a nearby trashcan.
He slammed the lid on her and kicked it down the street before walking up to Rick.
"How tough am I? Considering Team Rocket sees me as enemy number 1, you damn well bet I'm tough enough. Unless you want to take me on." Crimson said cracking his knuckles.
"No, sir. Welcome in." Rick said standing aside.
He went ahead in with the place full of sailors, military people, and roughnecks. Some had eyes on him already.
"Crimson?" Misty said finishing her drink.
"Yeah, it's me." Crimson said sheepish.
"You look like a sports yuppie." Misty joked as Crimson took the shades tucking him in his shirt.
"Yeah, and you look like you're down for clubbing." Crimson said eyeing her up.
If she was older and you reddened the hair, she looked like Frankie Foster in that tight black minidress and heels. She also wore a navy officer's coat draped off her shoulders, a navy blue Ruffled Shoulder Bag, and a hint of makeup.
"Hello Misty." Morticia said sweetly.
Misty ruffled Morticia's ghostly body affectionately.
"Ok, we're ready to go…oh…it's you." Violet said.
Misty's sisters came up all wearing similar club dresses in different colors.
"I hate to cut the reunion short, but I do want to get into that club. Let's go…" Daisy said as Crimson had an idea.
"I'd like to come. I've never been to a nightclub, and it'll be fun." Crimson said with a grin.
Misty's sisters would have said no, but they figured they could use him as their own personal bodyguard.
[Cues: Conker's Bad Fur Day OST – Rock Solid]
Of course, Crimson did change into clothes fitting for a club after a pit shop in a shop. He kept his sneakers, shades, and the gloves, but now a black silk shirt under an opened dark red pinstriped buttoned shirt, and a pair of black chinos. The club in question was called the Violet Spider and the vibe made it clear who was running it. Not that he complained. Lil' Miss Malachite was never someone on his radar neither were her daughters.
They got down on the dance floor as Morticia was left holding Crimson's backpack. Jett was sent out to hang onto Daimonji. Crimson never thought he'd be slumming it on a nightclub, but he figured he'd have fun dancing along. Misty was just glad to have a friend with her as club were not really her thing. He sashayed to the bar asking for a martini.
"You sure you a man because that's a pussy drink?"
Crimson's response was politely pass on getting a drink and turn to leave.
"Excuse me, but that patron was asking for a drink?"
Crimson turned to be the head honcho. Still pudgy, but in a flattering purple skirt suit with a few buttons undone exposing a beauty mark.
"It was just a joke, I swear."
"I ought to fi-"
"Not needed. I don't want to cost a guy a job because of a stupid joke." Crimson remarked.
"I figured for the man who Team Rocket's afraid of would be a little meaner. Muffet." She said sultry.
"Crimson." Crimson said. "I'm still a bit taken aback by the reputation I have already."
"You're a hot topic. No one can say that on their first journey, they've fought off criminals while collecting the badges." Muffet said. "Let alone become a major player in Sepia affairs. Roman speaks highly of you and…the rumors are that you heard Neo speak and live."
"To be fair, there are three others have. Then again, that was because of me." Crimson joked.
That poor bartender was sweating bullets.
"I'd be honored if you joined me in the VIP section." Muffet offered.
"Sure. Give me one second." Crimson said using his aura to call for Morticia and Jett.
The two promptly came over.
"Morticia, Jett, I'm heading off to the VIP section. I'll be taking my blade, just in case." Crimson said as Daimonji went back on his side. "Watch out for each other and Misty."
"And her sisters?" Jett asked.
"Don't watch too hard." Crimson said dryly as Morticia rolled her eyes before turning to Muffet. "Shall we?"
The VIP room was a lounge that was a bit soundproofs with comfy chairs and drinks. In came the Malachite sisters who sat next to him as Muffet poured drinks.
"Red wine makes for a good starter." Muffet said as Crimson took a sip.
"I have a feeling you want me for something. Considering you mentioned Roman, it's a given." Crimson said sharply.
"Namely, I got an issue that needs solving. You're the man for the job while your track record. I got a Rocket Grunt that's been hassling me to go under Team Rocket's protection. The asshole even hurt one of my managers. He's in the hospital." Muffet remarked.
"Say no more. I'll do it, but is that all?" Crimson asked as the twins went in close.
"Maybe a potential discussion of a partnership. Joining up with the Black Dragons would get us 'protection'." Muffet said with a smirk.
"Is that so? Well, let me ask a question. Your girls here for your protection or to convince me to help you?" Crimson asked calmly.
"That depends." Muffet said only for Crimson to pull out a pair of 100 Pokédollar notes.
"Ladies, I believe you both are lovely, but I have no desire to have you flatter me if you don't want to. That's your mother's job to do." Crimson said giving both girls a tip. "So, leave us to it, please."
The twins looked at him before taking the tip and leaving.
"Thank you." Melanie said before closing the door behind them.
"Now describe this place of shit." Crimson said.
When she did, he laughed.
"Well, I guess you can just give me the reward. I ran into her earlier…let's just say that we fought and an angry Gyarados mangled her leaving her a bloody mess before leaving her frozen on an islet right off the bridge." Crimson said darkly. "Carmine, was it?"
"You work fast. If she's still frozen and there, allow me to deal with her." Muffet said.
"Now as for siding with us. All I ask for is 25%, free drinks for me, and a personal private room here." Crimson said. "We got a deal?"
"Of course…" Muffet said.
A few calls were made, and both came out of the private room all smiles.
"And will I have company for the private room?" Crimson asked.
"Oh, I will certainly have my daughters entertain you." Muffet mused.
"And if I want your 'company' instead?" Crimson asked as Muffet blushed. "I don't mind your daughters, but I may want you around on occasion. Later, Miss Muffet."
Crimson returned to the dance floor wanting to dance with Misty a for a while which lead to the two leaving a half-hour later.
"Thanks you two." Crimson said hugging both Jett and Morticia before returning them.
He put on his backpack.
"By the way, Black Dragons got an ally in that club now. Turns out the owner had a Rocket grunt I solved for her before I got there." Crimson said with a laugh. "I'd stay with, but I have to deal with something. I got a place to claim."
"I better go back in…I need to keep my sisters out of trouble." Misty said hugging him. "Later."
He broke away waving goodbye as he put on his shades heading off. He checked his phone showing a text from Sissi...the three found a place to stay for the night. Crimson put his phone away before seeking out the Triton Tower. What he found was a place that mirror from a certain Disney sitcom…but he really did not mind it too much. He just went to the front desk and chatted with the guy there.
"So, you're Brandon's kid? Yeah, you're his all right. Condo's on the 20th floor with the roost for flying-Pokémon. Your maid will be coming shortly."
"I get a maid?" Crimson asked.
"Oh but of course, all condo residents get a maid or butler to manage affairs and be a source of comfort. Of course, your father had a butler. Served as his assistant in his studies. He happens to hold the key to one of the sub-basement levels that your father owned here. His name was Bartholomew Oobleck."
Crimson's eye nearly twitched.
"You can use the private elevator to go up to your condo. All those with the Emerald level condo do. And I'll see to contacting Mr. Oobleck."
The front desk worker gives him a bow. Crimson nodded and went for the private elevator as some older woman was waiting for it open.
"Excuse me, but this elevator is for residents only."
"M'am. I happen to be one. 20th Floor." Crimson remarked.
"Oh…then you must be…I'm sorry for your loss."
The elevator opened they went in.
"It's fine. I'm used to it." Crimson said.
Once the elevator came to the 8th floor, she entered her key to open the door to her home. Crimson arrived to the top floor and used the key. The place was rather nice, but homely. There was a grand family portrait of himself, Morticia, Jett, and his parents on the wall. Crimson recognized the day that photo was taken, it was before his first day of Kassai years ago.
[Cues: Teaching Feeling OST – Silver Glass]
"So, this is the place my father left for me…" Crimson said to himself. "Well, it's certainly not like the childhood home in Pallet."
Modern and certainly sleek, the place gave off a futuristic feel. He certainly liked it. He sensed another presence and had little footsteps. Out from another room appeared to be one from the Fairy Tale Girl trainer only in Maid's wear, but a closer look revealed she was another outlier like Roulette. The blonde hair and blue eyes were a giveaway. Mary Louise Dahl, the 'Baby Doll' was his maid.
"Haven't I seen you on television before?" Crimson asked dumbly.
"Kid, you're too young." She said with her voice offsetting her appearance. "And that's old news as I'm no longer an actress."
"Why not? You got a lovely voice and cuteness in spades." Crimson said kindly.
"Flatterer, but cute was only last so long. Kid, I'm old enough to be a mother, probably not yours though. Regardless, you must be Crimson, I am Mary Dahl." Mary said with a curtesy.
"Charmed. I guess we're supposed to do intros or something." Crimson said sheepishly taking up a Sitrus Berry from the bowl of fruit and eating it.
"Well…there's that. And there's another thing…I didn't exactly get much in the way of preparation. I literally only started a week prior. They expected you to help get me a Pokémon." Mary said with an eye roll.
"Are they…remind me never to tip." Crimson said dryly. "I'll arrange something. Just know working for me has put under the Black Dragons."
"What are you, a mobster?" Mary said with a raised eyebrow.
"The Black Dragons is basically the Justice League but with anti-heroes, Pokémon, and motorcycles. Besides, I'm the guy actively warring with the actual mafia, Team Rocket." Crimson explained.
"The Tower staff did not exactly mention much about you. Literally all I was able to get about you was from the news. They were all, you're cute, use your charm. He'll help you out." Mary drawled. "Now about what you want me to refer to you? I hope Daddy isn't your option."
"Yeah, no. I'm way too young for this nickname. I look more like an older brother." Crimson joked.
"Then it's Big Brother or Onii-chan." Mary said as Crimson rolled his eyes.
"Just call me Crimson, I don't do for titles. Now I'm supposed to be arranging pay for you?" Crimson said as Mary nodded.
"Bulma, call Roulette to deal with that. Tell her to set the pay to 40% higher than the average salary for live-in maids. Also get this place approved for me to offload my Pokémon here not in my active party…" Crimson said to his Dex.
"As you wish, Crimson." Dex Bulma said. "And before I go to deal with your request. There's a 'trophy garden' in the building's garden floor. Wild Pokémon are there. I also suggest you put me to charge."
"Most likely rich dumbasses and their breeding results." Crimson thought before asking Dahl to show him the Master Bedroom.
Mary led him up the stairs as Crimson was looking around.
"This penthouse is just like the one from Jessie. Go figure." Crimson thought before Mary opened the door.
The grand bedroom was clean and pristine even having a small workstation with a PC setup. However, Crimson walked up to the framed photo of his father. He was smiling with Oobleck and his mother. Another picture was near of a younger Crimson in his Kassai Academy Uniform with a young Morticia and Jett with him.
"It's times like this I realize what I had and what I lost. I was a quiet kid, very bright but very demure. After my parents vanished and I was in that year long funk, something in me snapped. Out came the Crimson everyone knows, confident and ready to take on the world. I can say it's the real me…but there's always an underlying layer of tragedy." Crimson said putting the photo of his parents on the bookshelf.
"Sorry for your loss." Mary said respectfully.
"I don't even know if they are dead. Never found a body, any traces of their Pokémon are gone…just poof like they were wiped out of existence." Crimson remarked. "Only those remember them are the reason they are proof they existed. But let's not dwell on that. I had to move on. No need to be sad sack."
Crimson got on the PC managing to access into it. There were a few files there about his father's research, but majority of the seemingly important were encrypted.
"And I doubt I'm getting in there." Crimson remarked.
"Why not?" Mary said.
"It's an Rivest-Shamir-Adleman encryption. Asymmetrical kind that needs two separate keys. A public key and a private one that most likely only my parents or Oobleck has." Crimson said looking around the rest of the PC. "And it seems there is another server…most likely my father has a computer in his sub-basement."
Crimson accessed the PC storage system and logged in his account before plugging in his Dex to wall to charge. The thought of getting a Porygon came up, and he made that a goal for later.
"Other than that, I secured the PC. I'm glad my father has a PC storage unit for transferring Pokémon in or out. I suppose I could bring one here." Crimson said keying away. "There we go."
Tessa's ball came as he let out the fearsome cat.
"Holy...he's huge!" Mary said stepping back.
"She." Crimson said putting the ball away in the PC. "This is my Luxray, Tessa. Tessa, this is Mary, my new maid for this place I just got from my father."
"Hmm…your father. That ghost of yours mentioned he was…"
"I know, but he did leave stuff behind." Crimson said. "I brought you here to stay here and keep Mary company. Mary doesn't have Pokémon yet, so I need someone here to look after the place. She'll take good place of you."
Tessa licked Mary's face.
"I'll have to get a PC unit out in the living room. If I do make a call, you can send me any Pokémon I need or at least my Pokémon can get to it to return to their balls easier. I'll handle that soon." Crimson remarked.
"They wouldn't happen to look similar to an arcade machine. I saw one of those in one of the other rooms…looked like a pet room…well I guess it's for Pokémon." Mary said leading the way.
The room was like a mini terrarium as Tessa walked in before plopping down the grass. The PC was in the right-hand corner secured which Crimson got up and running.
"Now, you can deal with that Mary." Crimson said. "Now let's get to that trophy garden."
[Cues: ]
The garden was on the ground floor and reminded him of the one from Sinnoh. He had no idea of the levels or the Pokémon in this garden given he left his Dex back in the mansion. He also left his backpack in his only taking a few things out of it. It made for a cute sight that Tessa offered to let the little maid a ride on her back.
"Tessa will help capture a Pokémon. Hopefully, we don't actually run into any surprises in the tall grass." Crimson said as Mary got off Tessa.
"Use this." Crimson said giving her a Dusk Ball. "Its power will be raised being it's nighttime. I already explained Tessa's moves. You'll do great."
Mary nodded and went on in with her. Crimson wanted to look around himself.
"Well, ain't you cute…" Mary said finding a Teddiursa.
Said Teddiursa bit threw a rock at her head just because only for her to catch it.
"Wha-" *CRACK!*
And that's how Teddiursa was knocked the hell out.
"Dumb bastard thought he could get one on m-Oh…" Mary said seeing a big Ursaring looking down at her. "Tessa, help!"
Tessa fired off a Thuderbolt zapping the big bear. It was damaged, but still able to stand and lunge at her to attack with Slash. The lunge sent both tumbling leaving the unconscious little bear alone and out cold. Crimson walked up seeing the bear and thought about it.
"Might as well." Crimson said getting out a Luxury Ball. "Besides, if I go to Hoenn, I got something to use."
Crimson got out a Friend Ball and used it to capture it.
"I'll find out your gender later." Crimson said as the ball clicked and vanished off to the PC. "Hm?"
An Ursaring was flying over his head onto the ground.
"How dare you stone my son!" Ursaring said getting up.
"She was defending herself, he threw it first." Tessa roared out.
"Son? So that Teddiursa I just caught was a boy." Crimson said Ursaring tried to attack Crimson.
He caught the bear's wrist much the Pokémon's utter shock before whirling around to slamming his heel into Ursaring's chest right in the ring on her belly.
"What the hell?" Ursaring said coughing in pain falling on her butt. "But you're just a human."
"Now I want to hear about this issue. Both sides." Crimson said before getting an explanation. "Ursaring, I clearly trust MY Luxray to tell me the truth."
"Doesn't excuse you catching my son while he was out cold." Ursaring said. "I…"
SMACK! Mary thought the ball capturing Ursaring within it. The Dusk Ball waggled before clicking.
"Now you got something of your own. You can give it a nickname if you want." Crimson remarked.
"Maybe later." Mary said feeling a chill. "Can we go back now?"
"Yeah, sure. I suggest you go hit up the shops for the needed supplies. Maybe get a water Pokémon for traveling and a bird Pokémon to fly yourself around." Crimson said as Mary took up the ball.
[Music Ends]
The two went back up where Tessa and Ursaring got healed, while Ursaring got some new moves from Crimson before they were put in the terrarium. Tessa got comfortable on the grass as Ursaring pouted.
"Now I'm some little girl's assistant…just great." She thought before seeing Tessa roll over. "At least, the room is comfy."
Crimson sat on the couch with the maid watching television.
"And in recent new..."
"Buy now."
Crimson flipped through the channels before finding a channel that aired the Simpsons. He decided to watch only to only spit out his drink to see that a parody of him was on the episode as the family was on watching tv.
"In recent news, Crimson, famed for fighting criminals while on his Pokémon journey is being honored because he apparently saved the world from being nearly destroyed. And he's barely a teenager…Good grief."
That got Crimson to laugh with him falling off the couch. He laughed hard at the irony of that statement given what he knew. Crimson wiped a tear away just enjoying the episode.
"What's so funny?" Mary asked.
"They can predict the future." Crimson said cryptically.
"You? Save the world? Kid, the day that happens, I'll get a growth spurt." Mary said as Crimson gave her a look. "What?"
"Oh nothing, just a thought. There happens to be a Pokémon who can grant wishes. It only awakens for seven years once every 1000 years or so." Crimson remarked.
"Don't bullshit me." Mary said only for Crimson to show her the Pokémon on his Dex.
"The mythical Pokémon, Jirachi." Crimson explained. "And before you considering going after it, this guy is called a mythical Pokémon for a reason. There's barely any information on his whereabouts…few of them exist and there are little records of them. If I do meet it, I think I know what I'll wish for."
"Don't hold your breath." Mary said before getting up. "Anything you need of me because I retire for the night?"
"Breakfast in the morning." Crimson said the house phone rang. "I'll get that."
He answered it and realized it was the front desk.
"About Oobleck. Apparently, the man was recently declared missing... Apparently, investigating a mystery concerning some faraway kingdom. I'm sorry, I don't have any more details."
Front desk hung up as Crimson slammed the phone shut.
"Bad news?" Mary asked.
"Yeah, the one guy who could have told me about more about my father's work is missing. And I don't know how dick or where he could be. So, another dead end…I…" Crimson said before cell phone rang.
He answered hearing Misty's voice.
"Hey, Mis. What's up?" Crimson said trying to sound cheery.
"Something wrong, you sound bitter…" Misty asked.
"Just some shitty news. In other words, water's wet. What's up with you?" Crimson asked.
"Oh, I was just passing through town and I found that the Triton Tower has this huge garden. I wandered in and found two Pokémon in the lake. A Swanna and a Quagsire. I managed to capture them both…I seriously owe you big time for specialty balls." Misty remarked.
"Triton? I'm actually there right now, apparently my father left me a penthouse here." Crimson said.
"No way. The Triton is…"
"Go to the front desk, ask them for Crimson. You'll be seeing me shortly." Crimson said before hanging up and calling front desk.
Did not take long for Crimson to open the elevator to Misty who whistled in appreciation.
"Fancy." Misty mused. "You got a PC?"
"And a terrarium." Crimson said as the doors closed.
"Did this place come with a maid or you literally banging a girl dressed up as one?" Misty said eyeing Mary.
"Actually, I'm his actual maid. Mary." Mary said.
"Misty Waterflower, Cerulean City Gym Leader." Misty said before looking at Crimson. "What? She clearly looks like a foreigner. No offense."
"None taken as you're right." Mary said.
"Wait, haven't I seen you on television before?" Misty asked.
"Nope." Mary lied as Misty shrugged.
Crimson took Misty up to the terrarium to make some swaps on PC. She was glad to have a Pokémon she could actually fly on, so she swapped Gyarados and Lapras out for the new captures. A few TMs and they were ready. Crimson had let out the rest of his Pokémon to relax in room alongside Misty's.
"It's a good thing I bought some TRs. You came in clutch for getting discounts." Misty said as the two sat on the couch. "Now please tell me what's wrong?"
Crimson had told her.
"Oh, Crimson. I'm so sorry." Misty said as Crimson sighed.
"It's okay. I'll find him someday. He's not dead, just missing." Crimson said pouring himself a glass. "How's your family drama?"
"Ugh, my mother still babies me. Sure, she's on my sisters' asses because of letting me do the work, but it's a bit embarrassing." Misty said with a sigh. "My father's fine. My sisters whine at me, but I'm like, 'What do you expect?'."
"To be fair, I smell parental favoring on your dad's side at least. I mean if I was told repeatedly that my sibling was better than me…I'd lash out." Crimson said. "But I'm an only child."
"Crimson…do you think I could rejoin…"
"Yes! Yes, please!" Crimson said relived. "The journey through Kanto isn't the same without the snarker partner. But what about the Gym?"
Misty simply got out her cell and called home.
"Yes, Obaasan. I want more sabbatical. Can I cash in free time to travel a bit more? Please." Misty said. "Where I'm going…just reunited with some friends that I want to keep traveling with."
"Ok, sweetheart. Just remember to make sure you call home once in a while and remember to buy your own birth control." Kishi said as Misty sputtered. "I saw you stealing some of your sisters'."
Misty was mortified, but partly relived that her mother was rather casual about it.
"Don't worry, while I do baby you, you're still grown and able to make good decisions. I trust that you will. I will take over the Gym for the time being. I can't trust your sisters to do it. Have a safe trip, sweetheart." Kishi said before hanging up.
"I mean, it could have been worse." Crimson remarked. "She can at least accept that. Now that I think about it, have you done it with anyone else since then?"
"Just two others. Don't worry, you don't know them. You?" Misty asked.
"Kiyomi, you met. A Picnicker and two channelers." Crimson remarked.
Mary had walked out.
"Shall I prepare a bedroom for your guest, Crimson?" Mary asked.
"That's ok, I'll just share Crimson's." Misty said.
"All right then, good night." Mary said leaving for her own bed.
Crimson and Misty went up to his room.
"Pretty sure this is a bit bigger than your room in the mansion, well at least the bed." Misty said coming up to look at the picture of a young Crimson. "You were so cute!"
Crimson rolled his eyes as Misty put her purse and coat on the desk. He sat on the bed kicking off his sneakers and socks as he put his sword on the rack. He quickly down to his boxers as he sat on the bed.
"Man, I'm practically halfway through the journey. Shit, Misty…I need to catch you up..." Crimson said before pausing in his words.
Misty peeled off that black dress.
"What?" Misty asked.
"I kinda expected sexier underwear given you were all dressed up." Crimson said as Misty rolled her eyes.
"I wanted to be comfortable." Misty said easing herself right next to him. "Besides, I don't a certain someone minds."
Mary was walking by the bedroom in the hall only to hear Misty's moaning. Misty had taken be to on top of Crimson riding his shaft. Crimson began pumping away at her.
"You know, it's funny. My sisters were hoping to get a one-night stand tonight. But you threw a wrench in that…and now I'm getting laid." Misty remarked saucily. "Crimson, you honestly really are my wingman."
He watched her body move in tune with his as he had his hands fondling her breasts. He graduated to licking and sucking them. All the while, Mary was listening in.
"Shit, they're going like rabbits." Mary said biting her lips.
Misty got off of him crawling on her bed on her all four waggling her rear.
"Crimson, there's something I want to try again. Could you hold my…OH FUCK!"
He knew what she wanted. He slammed it into her while grabbing her side ponytail riding her like his life depended on him.
"That's it, that's it!" Misty squealed having her first orgasm of the night.
Mary was sorely tempted to touch herself, but she did not want to do it in front of the door. Crimson would finish on Misty's back admiring his handiwork.
"Should have done it inside…" Misty panted. "You made a mess of the bed. Probably should done this in the shower."
"Yeah…no need for the maid to have to clean this" Crimson said as the two got off the bed moving towards the shower.
Mary returned to her room flustered. The idea of using her looks to get a younger trainer's sway had came up not that she was one. Considering trainers were seen as adults, she could go any potential trainer interested in her. Speaking of Pokémon, a thought came to mind. Maybe she'd visit the garden again.
(A/N: Mary Dahl and Oobleck everyone! As for where Oobleck is, I'll give you one hint. I already revealed the location, but it just was not visited only mentioned. As I write this tale, I make plans for the future of it. For one, yes, I do plan to tackle the Pokémon movies. Some of them that I can fit…)
