Chapter 22: Feverish Puyos

The Puyos directed an attack toward us, everyone gathered around in a circle and protected me. Each of my friends, and Accord, knocked them back continuously. "Damn, I've never seen Puyos this strong before!" Raffina struggled. "Rrrr... Gravity's Strength!" Klug held the persistent Puyos in place. "There, that should keep them busy for a while." He brushed his hands. "Yes, but it's nothing more than a temporary solution, Klug. We should warn the rest of the school and take our leave." Accord announced. We agreed, mostly because we didn't have much of a choice. I was probably the only one fit to fight these tough blobs, but alas, I was weakened at the time. "I'll go. Kiddies, hide somewhere in the forest. I'll find you, so don't worry about me." She said. "Right!" We replied. "Let's get away from here before things become worse!" Amitie dashed off. Tarutaru picked me up and we followed her. "*pant pant* Those Puyos… something was wrong with them. Did anyone else see their eyes? They looked unnaturally red." Lidelle mentioned. "Actually, I noticed that too…" Klug said. "Wait, you mean to tell me that those Puyos were not normal?" I questioned. "Apparently not." Raffina joined in. "Well, whatever the reason is for these Puyos being so agitated, it made them irregular in behavior and strength. Puyos are usually never this aggressive." Tarutaru described. "Hold on, I see somebody up ahead with Amitie." I alerted. "Isn't that the dark mage?" Klug squinted. "Yeah, that's him." I confirmed. "Schezo!" I called out to him. "Dave? What is going on here?" "There are a bunch of Puyos acting out the ordinary. These ones are DANGEROUS, and we were unable to defeat them. I would've attacked them with everybody else, but an earlier fight put a number on me." He raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Puyos? I can't say that I fully understand… but I concede, it looks like you need help." "Y-you'll help us, Schezo?" "Only because these are Puyos we're talking about, Dave." I thought that he really did want to help, but no.

It looked like he was only in this for the Puyos. I didn't know why that was exactly. Maybe Puyos are used to make useful stuff. "Where are the Puyos right now?" Schezo asked me. "Well, they're tracking our movements, so they're probably coming close to us soon enough." I responded. "Ha! This just perfect, I wanted them to come!" He grinned. "Here come the Puyos!" I pointed. "Come at me, you stupid blobs of absolute nuisance!" The dark mage yelled. The Puyos swarmed Schezo, even he was not fit to deal with them for too long. "Damn! Wh-what are these Puyos on?!" "I told you, these ones are dangerous to try and pick a fight with." "Tch, looks like we'll need outside help…" "Then book it! We can't afford to have anyone going down from them!" "Fine, Dave!" We continued to run, with Schezo by our side. All he could do was to slow the Puyos just enough to where we could gain some distance. "Do you know anyone up ahead that could help us?" I asked him. "*pant* Yes, Arle's house should be close to us. We'll need to be quick th- God, those Puyos are relentless!" "Puyo puyo!" A trio of Puyos tried to attack Schezo from above. "Schezo, watch out!" I warned him "Ah-!" I had to do something to protect him. "C-Cryogenic Bomb!" My icy attack launched the three Puyos away from us. "Well, normally I don't thank anyone for saving me… but just this once, I am somewhat grateful." He admitted to me.

We came at last to Arle's house. Amitie knocked on the door, and Arle came out. "A-Amitie, what's wrong? Why aren't you at Primp Magic?" She asked with concern. "Arle, it's terrible! A bunch of Puyos came into our classroom and they looked pissed!" Amitie replied. "P-Puyos?!" She reacted. "Arle, they keep chasing us, and we need all the help we can get. Not even Schezo was able to handle them... I would've done something about it, but I'm currently not in the best condition to be fighting." I told her. "Okay, you guys need help? I'll see if I can get Draco and some others to help." She promised. I saw Carbuncle come into the picture. "Gu?" "Carby, can you assist Schezo until I come back?" "Gu gugu!" The little yellow guy immediately jumped into action. "C-Carbuncle! Wait for me!" Schezo hollered and ran off. "Dave, we'll hold them off, just wait here." Klug said, dashing away to fight. "Sure." I approved. Tarutaru put me down inside Arle's house, and caught up with the others. "Tch. I can't believe that I'm useless to my friends for the meantime…" I scoffed to myself. I looked around the living room as I remained sitting down. "I guess Arle prefers to live a simple life…" Quite a bit of time passes, how much though? I didn't know. I heard several screams at one point, then reacted. "! My friends…! I have no choice, they're in trouble. I have to tough out my weakness and fight. Hiiiiiraaaah!" I applied my weaker dragon armor, since the latter was far too risky at this moment. I opened the door and went outside, joining in the fight.

Schezo's POV

Me and Dave's friends held off the Puyos for a while, but we couldn't drive them back to whence they came. "Shit, I'm losing too much stamina.. " I was wiped out. My muscles were practically sore from all of this fighting. But then, I heard a voice I knew. "Cryogenic Bomb!" Puyos surrounding us went flying around. "D-Dave, what are you doing here, you idiot?! You'll get yourself killed!" I yelled at him. "Look Schezo, it seemed like… you guys were backed into a corner. Had I not helped you just now, we would ALL be dead. There was just no way that I would accept that, even while not being in good shape." He replied to me. "Tch. Whatever… You can help, but back off once more help arrives. I don't want to be blamed for your death." I advised him. "Point taken, I will." He finished. I went in to attack another of the blobs. "Hrr! Slice and Dice!" I proceed to go through more of my attacks, beating around all of them. "Thunderstorm! Shadow Edge! Star Strike! *pant pant* I can't… remember the last time… where I had to fight this long and hard. ... Where the hell is Arle?!" I complained. "I don't know Schezo, she hasn't returned to us." Dave said. "Damn, that bitch…!" I gritted my teeth. "I'm sure that it isn't her fault, get over it… just keep fighting. Also, Arle's going to he really mad when she finds out that you called her that." He responded to my anger. "F-fuck you, Dave! Just focus on the enemy in front of us." "I was going to say the same thing to you, Schezo. And don't think I'm going to forget that comment of yours, either!" We fought them head-on, but they just kept coming at us without a break.

I fell to the ground for that moment, needing to catch my breath."*pant pant* Argh… I can't keep going like this…" I started to give up, but then help FINALLY arrived. "Kiddies! Don't worry, I have returned." Accord spoke. "And so have I, with a couple of extra pairs of hands to boot!" Arle continued. "M-Ms. Accord, Arle, Draco, and Rulue!" Dave sounded like he was in relief. "D-Dave! Go back to… Arle's house, where it is safe!" I commanded him. "Yes, I will." He nodded. Dave began to run back to the house but that's when trouble brewed. "...?! Dave, above you!" I alerted. He looked up in sheer terror, and screamed. What he had his sight on was a massive amount of Nuisance Puyos, falling to his location. "Gyaaaah!" He couldn't move out of the way in time and got crushed beneath it all. "Dammit, no!" Draco began to tear up, seeing Dave meet his demise so unexpectedly. "These Puyos will pay for this!" Arle yelled, with a stern look on her face. Everyone was fueled with sadness and anger, besides me. Draco released a ton of fire from her own breath. Rulue kicked and uppercutted the Puyos into near-oblivion. Arle called upon her Judgment attack to give them utter hell.

I didn't care so much for Dave, but I knew that I had to do something as well. We all held our ground for a while... but the Puyos came at us, even still. This was when I wanted to devise a plan to eviscerate them all. "Arle, cast your elemental spells on my sword!" I told her. "Huh? Why though?" She asked me. "Just do it, don't ask why!" "Okay Schezo, I hope that you know what you're doing… Fireball! Ice Storm! Thunder!" The three spells permeated my sword and the result was better than I expected. "Alright… Everyone, get away from the Puyos! I'll get rid of all of them in one shot..." I only had one chance to make this work, I needed it to count. Once Dave's friends got the hell out of dodge, I prepared. "Haaaaaaah… … …" I charged my attack as one final assault. Combining Arle's elementals with my darkness power, I gave it my all. "Here I go! ELEMENTAL SHOCKWAVE!" I fired it from my blade, any Puyo that it touched… was torched, frozen, and zapped simultaneously. This caused a phenomenon that I now dub as "vaporization". As the term would imply, the Puyos vanished from existence, one by one until they were all through. "*pant pant pant* Ough… " I used every bit of strength in that attack, and I passed out.

I woke up in Arle's house with blurry vision obstructing my view. "Ugh… A-Arle… ! What happened?!" My mind comes to speed with the current time. "Relax, Schezo… the Puyos are all gone. It's thanks to you that we are safe now." She told me. "What about Dave though...? He was squished by hundreds of Nuisance Puyos." "Yeah… that's the issue now, just look at him. He hasn't been doing well since then. We got rid of those Nuisance Puyos, but he has been out like a light. None of us know what it is… it looks like he has some sort of fever." "A-a fever? Show me, Arle." Arle nods and shows me Dave in his current state. I felt his forehead and immediately took my hand off of it. "No doubt, this IS a fever, alright…" "*pant pant pant* Puyo… puyo." I was actually worried for Dave. It felt off as a dark mage, but even I'm not completely cold and heartless. "He's burning up and breathing in an irregular pattern. I'm no medical expert, we need to take him to proper attention as soon as we can." I spoke. "Gu gu…?" Carbuncle jumped to Dave's side. "This doesn't seem to be just any fever either… I've heard stories about it… could it be true?" Accord looked at Dave's body as she spoke. "Huh? You know what fever this could be?" I asked her. "Yes… Dark Mage, this is... what I believe to be, Puyo Fever." "Puyo… Fever?" I had never heard of something like this. I fought against countless Puyos and did not ever encounter it.

Naturally, I was quite skeptical about this fever existing… at first. "I heard about one case of a normal human being diagnosed with it… but there was never any evidence that I saw, would prove it to be real. So really, I thought of it nothing more than a tale. However, I remember the supposed symptoms of it, and Dave's condition matches the description." "What kind of symptoms?" "Body temperature rising above the norm, irregular breathing pattern, and he randomly said "Puyo puyo", like how Puyos go." "What does this thing do then? Is it contagious?" "First off, thank goodness that it isn't, from what I've heard… Secondly, the fever is supposed to invade the immune system and take out the white blood cells. They are replaced by Puyo cells, which are essentially a poison to our bodies. These new cells then slowly shut down vital organs, one at a time." "So the lungs, heart, and brain…" "Yes… and that's nothing short of a slow, painful, and scary death." She ended our lengthy exchange of words. "Ms. Accord, isn't there a cure for this?!" Amitie prayed for her to say yes. "Well… yes. But, it supposedly comes from a flower that can only be pollinated by a rare insect. If that flower isn't pollinated, then we cannot extract the cure." She told her. "What's the name of the flower and bug, respectively?" Arle asked. "The turquoise hydrangea and the hydra bee." Accord answered her question. "How are we ever going to fulfill those conditions? I've never seen either of those before…" Rulue came in, slightly frustrated. We all began to think, when an idea popped before me. "Wait, I think I may know someone that can help us." I said. "Who?" Arle asked me. "That boy… Sig, that's his name, right?" I questioned for confirmation. "Oh yeah, that's it! Sig knows a lot about bugs, maybe he knows where we can find a hydra bee!" Amitie lights up. "My, Dark Mage… you may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but that was a brilliant idea." The teacher smiled at me. "Eh, it's just a spark in my brain that triggered from memory. Pay it no mind; we must find Sig!" I got us back into worrying about Dave.

As we went to leave, we met three people at the door. "C-Comet Warlock?! Why are you here?" I reacted. "I was about to ask the same thing… we came lookin' for Dave, because he didn't meet back with us. Ms. Accord, I'm sure that you must've noticed too…" He said. "Yes, school's over for the day, has been for about an hour. So I assume that you heard about the problem that Primp Magic School had, then?" Accord joined in. "Yeah, me and Feli heard the announcement. Once we realized that Dave was missin', we got Ringo, then decided to try and find him." He continued. "I can't believe that he never bothered to call me." Ringo complained. "Well uh, how should I say this… Dave is here, but he's not in good health right now. That's probably why…" I told her. "What?! Show me, please!" She requested. "Dave's not well…?" Feli questioned. "This can't be good..." Comet Warlock looked quite concerned. "There he is…" I presented them. We explained to them what happened, involving the powerful Puyos, and Dave. "Hey, I think I know where Sig might be, Dark Mage." Comet Warlock told me. "What? Where?" I scrambled to a stance. "Follow me, I know the way. Piece of cake, with cream cheese frostin'." "That sounds revolting, Comet Warlock." "Wh-why does it sound gross to you, Dark Mage?" "The way that it's squirted out from the-" *smack* I get hit from behind before I could finish my reason. "You can kindly shut the hell up, Schezo. Seriously, will you EVER fix that problem of yours?" Arle scolded me. "Argh...! Forget about it, Arle! We're losing time!" I yelled, growing more irritated. Ringo, Feli, and Draco opted to stay behind to watch over.

We ran back inside the forest near Primp and there, we saw him. "Sig!" Amitie yelled to get his attention. "Amitie?" Sig gave a blank stare at her. "So what do you need me for?" He asked us. "Sig, this is urgent. Do you know where we can find a hydra bee? We need one to pollinate a turquoise hydrangea." The teacher pleaded. "Uhh hold on… let's see, hydra bee… Well, hydra bees have a hive that is colored like no other. If it isn't beige, then you've found it. I know that there's at least one of those here, but I don't remember where." He said. "Please Sig, this is important… we don't have much time." Arle spoke. "Why are you all so impatient right now?" Sig questioned. "It's about Dave, he's got something called Puyo Fever. If we take too long to get the cure, he'll die." Amitie elaborated. "Ah… I think I know where one hydra beehive is." He reminded himself. "Th-then take us there so that we may do deep penetration for a hydra bee!" I demanded. "Schezo, you never cease it with your accidental choice of words… fucking pervert." He went ahead and punched me with his red hand. "Ow!" I felt the sting of that impact. "Again, that's what ya get for sayin' shit like that… *chuckle*" Comet Warlock reminded me. "S-silence, Comet Warlock! Let us not get ourselves indulged in stupidity like that, and instead, get a move on!" I angrily made my case. "Sure. Whatever you say, man." He grinned. I sighed from the very attitude he embraced.

We followed Sig for some time before encountering what we wanted to find. "Yeah, here comes one of them…" He prepared to bottle the incoming hydra bee, to which he was successful. "Good, now we just need a turquoise hydrangea." I said while taking the bottled up bee. "We'll be on our way now, Sig." Amitie waved to him. We left to find that flower, wherever it could be. We searched for about an hour with no luck. Just when we were, or should I say "I", was about to give up, we found it. "Everyone, I see one here." Accord relayed to us. I released the bee from its glass prison. It latched onto the hydrangea and pollinated it. Soon, the bee stopped, buzzed, then began flying back to the direction of its hive. "Let's get back to Dave, his condition grows worse with each passing second." I spoke in haste. I placed the pollinated hydrangea in the bottle, sealed it, then we went back. "You're back! Did you get the thing?" Draco asked us. "Yes, we did. So anyway, how do we extract the cure from this?" I wondered. "Dark Mage, hand me the bottle." Accord put her hand out to me. I gave her it and the rest of us waited for results. "Here, I was able to turn the stuff in a liquid. Now, we just need to inject it into the boy." She said. "Do we have a needle for that?" Feli questioned. "No, we don't, and that's unfortunate…" We all sigh in frustration, having done all of this, for seemingly nothing. "Wait, I think there's someone that I can bring in that has one… from Suzuran." Ringo told us. "Bring that person in already, we don't have much time!" I yelled at her. "*pant pant* Puyo puyo… Puyo puyo…!" "*gasp* It's getting worse!" Draco panicked. "Go, Ringo!" I hurried her. "Okay!" She ran off, but not before Arle went after her. "Ringo, wait for me! You'll need someone to send you there and back!" We stare into the outside world before deciding to close the door. "All we can do is wait… and pray." Tarutaru concluded our constant talking for the meantime. We stayed silent until the two girls came back. "You guys needed a syringe, I take it?" A new voice enters. "Hey, it's that bear guy!" Draco recognized him. "It's Risukuma, Draco. And for the record, I am not just a bear… I'm a squirrel bear." He responded to her comment. We hand him the stuff to place inside of the needle. "Okay… Oh Dave, I feel so sorry for you… Anyway, this will sting…" Risukuma injected the cure into Dave. "*whimper*" "There, now we wait for him to fully wake up." He finished.

Dave's POV

I woke up, feeling a pain in my arm. "Oooh... What happened to me?" I wondered. "Gu gugu!" I heard Carbuncle go on. "Don't you remember? You were under a mountain of Nuisance Puyos, then became unconscious. The others dragged you in here after dealing with them. Oh, and I took out the colored Puyos before that, with the assistance of Arle's magical power. But then, I collapsed to the ground, losing all of my energy." Schezo approached me. "What are... Nuisance Puyos?" I asked. "Those are the greyish Puyos that really hurt you, Dave." Arle answered. "Anything else I should know?" I continued asking. "Dave, my student… You caught a nasty fever from the Nuisance Puyos. Thankfully, we cured you in time before you could die." Accord told me. "Oh, well thanks a bunch… all of you." I smiled. Ringo, Feli, and Draco then came in to see me, they were elated and dashed over. "You're okay!" All three hugged me. "G-girls…!" I reacted positively. "I was incredibly scared when I saw you lying there, saying "Puyo, puyo" unconsciously." Ringo described. "Me too…" Draco agreed. "Dave, don't die on us after everything we've been through. There's a reason why you have three girls who love you..." Feli placed her hand on my cheek. I didn't say anything for about half a minute before coming up with proper words for this. "Don't worry, I'm not planning on being killed by anything, or anyone for that matter." I stood up and continued to speak to them. "Ringo, Feli, Draco… our love is so strong, that nothing can stand in our way. Oh yeah…" My smiled disappeared. "Ringo and Feli, I'm sorry about all of this... the Puyos were acting strangely, and they attacked us from out of nowhere. The battle wasted so much of today's time." I apologized to them. "It's fine, there shouldn't be much to worry about." Ringo told me. "What? But how, Ringo?" I was confused. "We can afford to skip out on what we missed for right now, only until midterms come up." She explained. "Which is when?" I asked her. "About a month from now… roughly." She finished. "I see… then what about you two?" I pointed to Lemres and Feli. "We shouldn't have much to worry about either." Feli told me. "Yeah, we'll be fine, Dave." Lemres assured me. "Well, if you say so… Should we go home?" I scratched my head. "Yeah, it's getting late… Mom might be worried about me." Ringo said. "Okay." I replied. Me and Ringo waved goodbye to all our friends and Accord, then left for home.

Ms. Ando grabbed hold of me upon seeing us come back this late. "Where have you been, Ringo and Dave? I was worried sick about about you children, coming back later than expected..." She held me like as though she was my mother. I could tell that she did care for me. "Well, Ms. Ando… I got hurt from something and had to recover." I lied. Ringo nodded to make my statement seem trustworthy. "I appreciate you trying to cheer me up… but you're lying to me." She used one of her hands to grab my chin gently, and lifted it up. Making me look at her, face-to-face. "You looked away from me slightly while saying that… I just want to know, why did you lie to me? I'm sure that you two have a good reason, but I want the honest truth." She requested us. "*sigh* Alright, but I must ask this to you, Ms. Ando. Are you ready to hear this truth? It's a heavy one, and it'll require understanding. Also, remember when me and Ringo were telling you about our time in the Puyo Isles? I wasn't telling you the full truth with that either. Yes, I was doing a court case on the fly over there… but there was more to that trip than that. I'll ask this once again, Ms Ando... are you ready to learn of what transpired with me, ever since I started living here?" I waited for her final answer.

She thought it over for quite some time, leaving me and Ringo to be silent. "I think I'm ready…" She held her words, firmly. "Very well…" I went ahead and told her everything. The stuff about how I helped Klug, the sex in the Puyo Isles... and what happened to me, involving my most recent problem. I could tell that she was overwhelmed by all of it, finding it to be difficult to think of things to say. "I-I find this to be a little hard to believe… Magic? Sex? And… a fever that I had never even heard of…?" She questioned me. "I know, there's so much doubt to be had in what I say. I must say this though, it's all true. Here, I'll show you…" I stood up. I materialized my weaker dragon armor to present as proof. "Wh-what is this?" "Ms. Ando, I am no longer a pure human. I'm partially a demon now, but fear not. This is still the same person that you knew before." "You have scary eyes…" I raised an eyebrow from that comment. "What?" "Your eyes, Dave. They're not green anymore, they are… a dark red? And the shape of the iris in them is different too." I decided to look at a mirror to see this for myself. Sure enough, my eyes had a dark red hue, and the iris in both had a shape similar to cold-blooded animals. "Huh, so my eyes DO appear differently… I never noticed that. Anyway, I use this to protect people like your daughter. I may be a demon, but I still have the heart and mind of a human." I finished. "Mom, Dave protects me so much… that's why I fell in love with him." Ringo finally spoke again. "A-are you sure that this is what you think is best for yourself, my child?" Her mother asked. "Mom, this is Dave we're talking about here. I care for him as much as he cares for me." Ringo wrapped her arms around me, and I did the same. "You shouldn't have anything to worry about, Ms. Ando. I'll even protect you if things get that bad. After all, you seem to be just as frail as you daughter. … What do you say?" I waited for another answer. "I-I'm not sure, Dave." "Ms. Ando, look at me. I started out as a bashful guy, with no strength to speak of. I was as frail as any average human would be. I got as strong as I am now because Ringo and my other friends believed in me, counting on me to get the job done. I need you to believe too, after all, you're the closest to being a mother of sorts to me now." "... … … Y-you're right. What kind of parent would I be if I didn't believe in a child that I'm looking over? Even if you are not mine… I treated you like a son. Dave, promise me that you can play your part, as you say. Oh, and I'm okay with the fact that you two are in love." She smiled. "I will, and thank you." I replied. We enjoyed the rest of the night, smiling and laughing away. Since Ms. Ando now knew of my relationship with Ringo, we did not need to be so evasive of it anymore. We could enter the bathroom together as a couple anytime we pleased, and love the time that we shared.

I talked with her in the shower, happy and carefree. Washing each other backs, we began doing just that. "Ringo, I'm so glad that your mother understands everything. When she makes up her mind, she knows what's best." I said. "Yeah, Mom always cared for me, like I was one of a kind… And she thought it was best to keep the fresh produce business going. This was after my grandma taught her the benefit of giving the public organic fruits and stuff." She agreed. "So wait, was it your grandmother who started this family business?" I assumed. "No, Mom was the one who did, but Grandma reinvigorated her passion for it." She explained. "I see, also… did you just use a purple word, Ringo?" I was surprised at her acknowledgement of the word. "Yeah… *giggle* I decided to learn a few new words in my English class." She revealed. "Well then, I'm sure you'll be glad to have learned them." I encouraged her. She smiled, then went in to kiss me. "You're always too kind… Wanna touch my breasts?" She tempted me. "Seducing me now, are we? Hehehe… Sure." I complied. I groped softly at them, they felt firm, but also soft. Not too big, and not too small. The more that I did it, Ringo breathed in and out slightly harder. After a bit of teasing, she directed me to stop. Having her back toward me, she spoke softly. "Stick it inside me." I knew what she was referring to. I didn't need her to tell me twice, I inserted my penis into her vagina. "Ah…!" Her body reacted to the action, even if it was slow and steady. And then, it was in. Maybe it was fully erect yet, but it was getting there. I could tell that she felt the erection, as she continued to moan. "Yeeees… thrust it harder… *pant* and faster, please." I breathed in and did so. Ringo found a lot of pleasure, being banged by me. I became completely hard from the friction of it. "Take it... out for a sec, Dave." I removed it, then she turned around to face me again. "Shut off the water and dry off, we are continuing this out here." "Why?" "It's so we can do this next thing without the risk of you slipping on water." We dried off, then Ringo proceeded to suck on my dick. This was the only thing that she wanted wet.

Making sure that it'll slip back inside her and keep it hard... she wrapped her tongue all around it, covering it in a thick layer of saliva. "It should be ready now…" she assumed. I felt great from the sucking, it turned me on more than I anticipated. "'Kay… Pick me up, and I'll hold on tight." I nodded. She clings on to me like a baby. I grabbed my wet and throbbing cock, then shoved it back in that pussy. I slid it back and forth at a decent speed for a while. This caused Ringo to go into that critical mode. "Shit…! I'm gonna come! Fuck me as hard as you can without you, yourself coming! I don't wanna have your seed planted in yet!" As she commands I pound her as much as I could, without giving in, and handing her the best climax she can have. "OH…! I'm coming…" She twitched. I felt her come flow through, to where it leaked out of her. I took out my stick, it throbbed violently. "Look at how big its gotten… Ejaculate in my mouth, Dave." She told me, still panting from her climax. I jerked off as she waited in anticipation for my semen. Just when I was on the brink of ejaculating, I stopped. "Suck on it, it's going to explode, Ringo…!" She did so after getting on her knees, quickly. "Ah…! I'm coming!" The semen entered her mouth in large increments, to which she swallowed each until the last bit came out. She held that smaller load in her mouth, then leaned in for a kiss.

Ringo must have wanted me to taste me own semen. "So how was the taste, Dave?" She smiled. "I don't know honestly, but-" "Oh look at that, your dick is still hard…" She looked at it in surprise. I was shocked from its current state as well. "Looks like it still has the will to pump out more of that delicious semen… Shoot it at my face, don't worry, I can still clean my face after this." She perked with excitement. "Alright, I'm in the mood for another climax." I agreed. I jacked off and Ringo sucked on my testicles for further pleasure. This went on for a few minutes or so, then I felt it. "Fuck, I'm coming again!" She prepared her face to be splashed with my goo. For a second, consecutive climax... I released quite a bit. "Wow, those testicles really do put in work. It makes me want to feel what it's like. Although, they'll need to be resting for a few days…" She said. "Yeah." I replied. "Anyway, thank you for making my life better with this, Dave. Maybe I'll take you out on a date sometime." "Sure, I'll be looking forward to it when you find the time, Ringo." I finished. We cleaned ourselves up by turning the water back on, then put clothes on afterwards. We exited the bathroom, and a thought popped into our heads. "Hey, you wanna sleep in the same bed for tonight?" Ringo asked me. "Yes, I would love that, Ringo. Let's tuck into my bed, it's bigger than yours." I told her. She nodded, and we covered up together. Wrapping each other with our arms and legs, we fell asleep in deep love.

Author's Notes: Dave survived the deadly Puyo Fever after fighting in a weakened state. He fought valiantly for his friends, in spite of that. Dave now is back to his old self again, thanks to Schezo and others getting the cure. But one does have to ask this obvious question... Why and how did those Puyos get so strong? Only time can reveal the answer to that. As to when, no one knew for sure. Next chapter, Chapter 23: A Scholar's Focus.
