Back in business, another chapter coming up. Quick sex scene but whatever you are used to it. Important things for Kyce to get done this chapter before he can move on with the journey. Enjoy!

Chapter 25: Crossroads.

"Oh yeah Kyce, that is so good!"

I don't even feel like I am doing anything special to be honest, but she seems to like it. I am guessing being a good Pokémon trainer is as good of a stimulus as anything.

Yes, it is Christina screaming out my name in pleasure as I penetrate her.

My first time, doing that.

Truly a big moment for me, so why am I not describing it in more detail?

Because it feels more like a getaway from reality than a benchmark in my life? Maybe.

It feels fantastic to be inside of a woman, I wont lie. And the visuals of this very fit blonde girl squirming under me as I pump in her tight pussy, is incredible.

I get the hype of the act, I really do.

I just cant shake the feeling that it seems wrong somehow. The kissing beforehand felt wrong. The touching. Even when she sucked me off, it was a familiar act, that fell far short of the last time i experienced it.

I was about to get nervous about potentially returning the favor by going down on her, something I have never done before, because a certain person wouldn't let me. But she was quick to grab a condom, put it in my hand, and lay down on her back while telling me to fuck her.

So I did as I was told.

She sounds satisfied, and I certainly like it as well. But she tells me harder, and as I did so I felt myself edging closer.

So I did the smart thing, which was to slow down and ask her if she wanted to turn around. She was more than happy to show me her perfect fitness butt, and wiggled in the air for me, before I went right back in.

I had intentions of taking it easy, but the urge to get out my frustrations. Over Dawn. Over Sebb. All of it. Has me going hard while she screams my name.

It does result in me coming rather quickly from the doggy position, and while Christina continues thrusting back into me, wanting more, the show is clearly over.

Im done for.

Sense of regret instantly hit me.

Emotions coming to the forefront, and making me really sad, even as this beautiful girl turns around on her back and pants as she smiles at me.

My first time. And it was all wrong. It felt good because of course it did, but it was not supposed to be. At least not with Christina.

This was supposed to be and entirely different girl.

One who I tried to fuck out of my system this evening, that along with my anger and regret towards that whole altercation I had with Sebb. But maybe this was the wrong way to go about it for me.

However, perhaps in time it will turn out to be the right decision and help me forget the girl who haunts my every dream, and most of my thoughts.

"That was so good honey", Christina tells me exasperated, with her sizeable breasts heaving up and down.

Im sure she means it, but she is probably exaggerating a bit. Afterall this was my first time ever, and I have doubt that she had an orgasm, or even got anywhere close. I appreciate the acting. It does boost my ego a bit in an area where im not all that confident.

"You too", I tell her with much less flair and playfulness than intended.

Guessing it came out more confused than anything else, because she even looks a bit weirded out by my reply.

"Come here baby", she regains her composure enough to invite me down to her, and I hesitantly lay down next to her, as she curls up to me and lay her head on my chest.

Man, this is uncomfortable. She is lucky that I need the sleep, or I would have bailed instantly. Would be awkward to go back to Sebb, and a small girl is inhabiting my bed, so this is my only option really.

I have no idea what Christina wants out of this relationship, given that she never found me to be particularly interesting before I took off on my journey, but I certainly don't want anything out of this. What I did want, I have just gotten now, way too easily.

Luckily, before I know it, I fall asleep.

The morning went surprisingly smooth, as I just smiled and nodded while she couldn't stop talking about a bunch of nonsense. Very little of substance. Until she invited me into the shower with her, and I got to fuck her once more.

Way more difficult in the shower than in the bed, I discover.

Still felt incredibly while I was doing it, but afterwards I was hit with unmistakable feeling of guilt, and constant images of Dawn flashing before my eyes. This sickness she inflicted upon me, better not be permanent. I hope that I am one day capable of enjoying sex, without her nagging my conscience.

That day is not today it seems.

Once we got done, I left her house instantly, and went to apologize to Sebb. He did not open the door, and this had me deciding on giving him some space. I was a first-class asshole last night. I basically took his biggest weaknesses and bad habits and used them against him. Not to mention the punch. I punched my best friend in the whole world, right in the face.

Who the fuck does that?

He is a naïve idiot, but he is my naïve idiot, and he has a 100 good traits for every bad. None of which I have ever pointed out to him, cause I am a selfish arrogant bastard and I always have been, but right now in this terrible time in my life, I cant contain it anymore. Besides he was the one who had the nerves to psychoanalyze me, while I was clearly hurt and felt betrayed by Dawn.

Nah, it's no excuse….

I ate breakfast with my mom, and that young girl. Rosella. Who acted very skittish throughout, and I didn't have much to say, as I was stuck in my own mind. Glameow remained glued to the wall, looking scared. My mom told me that he had been this way ever since Rosella appeared with her Ralts. Interesting. A pity i am way too far up my own ass, to even bother finding out why he acts this way.

I am fighting my own demons.

Though, I couldn't help but notice my mothers attention and nurture towards the young girl.

She always was a good and loving mother. This poor girl is feeling that firsthand, and she is welcome to it. I even try to talk to her briefly, but she does not respond. Just pulls back and clutches her Ralts, who somehow seems to mirror both her emotions and demeanor.

Whenever she is looking around, he is doing it too. When she is skittish and unsure, he looks just the same. Either they have been together their entire life, or something out of the ordinary is going on.

Actually, I know it is, because everything about this girl screams special. Also, when I laid out my new plan to mom, about me taking the big nearby ship to Jubilife City, where I will fight for another badge, Rosella looked at me with a…. Mischievous gaze? Is that what it was? Or a curious one? I don't know, but she looked like an idea popped into her head.

Afterwards I went to Rowan, where I showed off all my Pokémon, and he was impressed each time- Even Teddy had him very interested. Not in the least due to the goofy home knit blouse my mother forced on him. Making the bear scowl in dissatisfaction but light up in joy when he heard the praise.

Rowans observations had him rip apart his shirt Hulk Hogan style, while sharpening his claws and looking menacing. Or at least trying to look so. He is gonna need the confident when I tell my mom that he ripped apart the shirt, because that woman can be damned scary when she wants to.

Fearow was the only one of my Pokémon that got nothing but a huff. He was impressed by me catching it as my first Pokémon, but aside from that i guess he is not the biggest fan of the big bird Pokémon.

Noibat got noted as the first of its species in the Sinnoh Region, so that had the old man all excited as well.

The development of Buzz came as no surprise, as he already knew the potential when it was a little lightning plug fresh off abuse from team galactic. He had seen his impressive performance at the gym too, through a television screen, so he already knew all he needed.

However, Houndoom had the man perform all kinds of tests, and estimated this one to be very old and battle hardened. Everything about this horned fire-dog screamed top level, and Rowan who is always content at holding back his true feelings, couldn't help but highlight the power this fire-dog devil contains. He even went as far as to say that if it was given the right matchups, even the most elite of Pokémon would have a hard time with the power. That is without considering the power it could attain in the future, if I kept up our training.

The fucking Grim Reaper, ladies and gentlemen.

Now, once I showed him my Feebas, his jaw fucking hit the floor. Took him a minute to pick it up and rub his eyes in disbelief. Absolutely lost himself in analyzing my special gift from Fiona and understand how it ever came to be.

"Kyce…. This is unbelievable. A shiny Feebas. According to chances this should never ever be possible. I beg of you, please don't ever tell anyone, that this Pokémon exist. It is priceless. The most precious Pokémon in the world, and it is in your hands, so treat it with the caution it deserves. Work towards evolving it, but don't ever summon it infront of people. The importance of this, cannot be overestimated", was his stern advice, as he looked deep in my eyes and handed Bass back to me.

I understood every word.

I already knew that I had one of the most amazing creatures in existence, at my command, but Rowan really hit home the point to me. And though Sebb and even…. Dawn knows that it exists, there is no reason for anyone else to know. Not even my mother. The chances of her letting the information slip to the wrong people, is too dangerous, so best I keep it to myself.

Rowan finished up by letting me know what an amazing team I had created this far, even if Buzz and Houndoom were my only real strong Pokémon, he made it known that my teams potential this far, seems to be unlimited. No small praise from an old dried-up Professor who have seen most of everything, in his long life.

With the day coming to an end, I tried Sebbs house once more, but still no answer, so I went back to mom. I gave her the time of day, to share stories, and basically just being there for her, even if most of her attention was on the redhaired girl, who I noticed looking curiously at me everytime she thought I wasn't looking.

Peculiar.

As it became dark, I got a surprise message from Christina with a half naked picture, and went over to her for repeat business.

It went pretty much like last time, and while the first time wasn't passionate in the slightest, at least not according to me, then this time it was even less so. Everytime, I fuck her, I feel number, and thoughts of Dawn haunt me even more.

I wonder what she is doing right now. If she is thinking of me too, or if she is cursing me all the way to hell due to what I told her when we departed.

Not like it matters.

We will never see each other again, and I need to shake her out my mind.

Even Christina is a lot less loud than she was the first and second time.

Slightly bored?

I should be trying to do better, but I honestly don't care. So we finish up and just lay next to each other, no cuddling or anything. Somehow, I sense her being over me aswell.

She gave it a shot because she realized that I was a great fucking trainer and seeing as I am one of the few boys her age, that lives in Twinleaf, she might as well try me. Now she realized that I am a dull one, who has his mind somewhere entirely different.

Good, then I don't have to let her down or anything. Seems more like a silent agreement, that we are done.

Next day, I plan on taking off with the big cruise ship, so I get dressed quickly, and say my goodbyes to her.

More awkward than anything else, and she seems relieved even, that I am taking off now.

Shortest love story in the history of the world. The first girl I ever had sex with. What a tragedy.

I try Sebbs door again, to make sure that he is ready to go, but once again he doesn't answer, so I ring him up on the PokéDex.

Still no luck.

Is he freezing me out? Well, doesn't matter, he knows about the ship plan, as we talked about it the first day we were here, and I am sure he will be there.

So, I go to Rowans lab instead, where I say goodbye to the old man, and go to his garden, to pick up Noibat, who was enjoying its time there, as it got to relax and calm down, after the harsh encounter he had with me. I summoned him back to the Pokéball when I heard a bark that I have heard a million times before.

Its Havoc.

That had me go to the place in the garden, where I determined the sound to come from, and I saw Sebb train with his Growlithe.

So this is where he is, doing some intense training. That is good.

"Hey bro, finally found you. Ship is coming in a couple of hours, get ready man", I nonchalantly tell my curly haired friend.

My voice has Havoc running over to me and rubbing his fur on me, getting me to scratch behind his ear.

"See ya", he simply states, and claps for Havoc to come back to him, which he does.

"What?", I ask him a bit harsh. Seems like the only tone I know of, when it comes to him lately.

He walks closer, to reveal the black eye he got from my punch. Ouch. He then eyes me down coldly.

"You heard me, I am not going", he tells me with a much more serious tone than I had ever heard from him.

He is usually giddy and happy, but everything about him is so different right now.

"Okay, I am sorry bro, I should not have punched you, or said all that stuff, im sorry now get going", I concede as I throw my hands defeated in the air.

Probably sounded a bit insincere, but I cant help it. Apologizing is not in my nature. I am truly sorry, but I don't feel like I need to explain my action.

He was getting on my nerves, in my most vulnerable moment after Dawn left me, and he knows this, so he should just suck it up and get ready to continue our journey.

"I don't care. You were probably right in what you told me. I am a clueless airhead, and I know I get carried away sometimes. I am not the best. I am not you, but my heart is in the right place, and I have always stood by you. Even now I would rather die than have anyone hurt you, but I cant follow you anymore. First step on the way to change, is to stop letting you boss me around Kyce. You always treat me like shit. You are truly talented, and knowledgeable to boot, but you have also grown increasingly more arrogant and selfish. You don't give a fuck about anyone else.

I know you just went through tough times, but all I did was trying to break through to you, and you responded by punching me in the face. I think some alone time would do you good too Kyce, reflect on who you have become, and who you wanna be. Either way our partnership ends here, I wish you good luck on your journey, but im not coming", he tells me passionately, without breaking eye contact.

Okay.

What a turn of events. Sebb have had enough of me.

I thought this would never happen but seems like I went too far this time.

Is he truly thinking that i would fall to my knees and beg him to come with me? No chance, the greatest don't grovel.

"Okay, be a bitch about it then, im going", I tell him angrily, feeling those emotions of mine flooding my body once more.

"Go then", he replies easily.

"I hope you regret this choice when you look at me on your TV screen. Champion of Sinnoh!", is what I settle at.

Sounding very desperate and not as cool as I imagine it would, so I quickly turn around and walk away, as I hear Havoc whimper behind me.

Almost crying at the prospect of his two favourite people splitting up for good.

Well you best believe it little buddy. We are over with. And I am all alone.

No true love with Dawn, and no best friend with Sebb. Just me.

The way it was always intended.

Written in the stars since my father was murdered. Kyce against the world, and nothing can stop me. Fuck all those meaningless distractions, I am off to greatness.

Even now I have the calmness to count to ten, and then go say my goodbyes to my mother.

She hugs me and cries a silent tear, like I expected her to. While Rosella and that creepy Ralts looks at me. Even though I can´t see it´s eyes.

"Oh baby, please take care of yourself out there. Be smart, and avoid those damn gangsters, please", she tells me, while no doubt reminding herself of some of the stories, I was foolish enough to tell her about those guys.

"Mom, don't worry, if anything I am gonna fuck those cunts up", I then grit out determined, having her shake her head.

But more interesting is the reaction from Rosella, who actually gasped, earning attention from me. She is almost smiling, yet still with nervousness in her big blue eyes. Hard to explain, but Ralts is smiling too, and tilting it´s head as he looks at me. Creepy.

Something is definetely wrong with that Pokémon.

"Kyce! Language!", Mom reprimands me, before giving me one last squeeze and sending me on my way. I halfheartedly wave bye to Rosella and welcome her in using my room as long as she wants. I doubt I am ever going back to it anyway.

Next stop for me is a new badge, and indescribable amounts of fame and money.

So, Teddy on my back I walk towards the ship, and feel him constantly looking for Sebb. I don't even bother explaining it, because everything in this world is about me.

Even while I am waiting for the ship, all I keep thinking about is my choices and decisions. How everyone have left me, and the reasons for it.

What the fuck is happening to me? Consumed by my own destiny?

The ship appears in the horizon, and now is the time to make my decision.

Continue my journey alone, without distractions. Just one goal in mind.

Or…. Well what even is my other option? Sebb is done with me. Dawn is god knows where, and….

Oh, fuck, I don't have time for this shit, the ship is here.

Full fallout between Kyce and Sebb. Ship is coming and Kyce needs to get going. What will he do? And what is the deal with Rosella and her Ralts?
