AN: Hey Everyone! I'm back with another post to 10 Minutes Chapter 16! Well guys, this chapter will be the big leap. You'll see what I mean sooner or later.

In Case You all haven't been aware, this story was originally under the account called "ReignZ" and that was me, due to the fact that I was unable to access this account and once I did, i moved the story over from that account to this one. So when you see "ReignZ (LegionZ)" at the end of every chapter, it's me just coming back in.

But last chapter had a very big lemon scene, even I didn't expect myself to type so much but what's done is done right lol. Anyway yeah so this chapter is going to be interesting (Like usual) but it's more of a filler chapter. You'll find out what the big leap is, enjoy!

ReignZ Presents… 10 Minutes Chapter 16

The Next Morning…

The soft morning sun peeked through cracks of the window. It happened to be hitting everyone square in the face, and yet nobody awoke from it. However, after another moment or so, John blinked and opened his eyes. He stared around the room, trying to comprehend what had happened, and then smiled as he remembered the previous night.

Unbeknownst to the girls, John and Ash had not impregnated them. They had a way to prevent it using, obviously, aura. Either way, they wouldn't get pregnant yet. John looked down at his muscular chest and saw Skyla's hand lying there. It did not take him long to recall that they were both very naked. So, he chose to carefully slip out of bed, very mindful of his surroundings. He slipped out of the room quietly and walked to his room, where he sat down on the bed and though about the previous nights' events. He remembered the moans and cries of his girlfriend, and although he wanted to do it with her as much as possible, he had to remember she was probably exhausted. He wasn't all that tired, but she didn't have any backup aura stamina.

He figured he could think about it another time, and grabbed a towel and walked off towards his private bathroom to shower off the smell. Meanwhile, Ash was currently waking up. To his surprise, when he opened his eyes, the gorgeous blonde beauty was still sleeping on his chest. Her eyes were closed and she looked very peaceful. Ash wasn't sure if he wanted to disturb her sleep, but he was very hot, and wanted to take a shower desperately. How else was he to get out of bed without disturbing the girl?

He saw little to no option except to wake her up. He carefully shook her, but she did not wake. He decided to try moving and see if it worked, and to his utter shock, he slipped out from under the girl and hopped out of bed, and neither girl woke up. He smiled happily at his good fortune, and then turned to walk out the door, only to trip on his discarded underwear he left so smartly placed on the floor. He slipped and fell directly on his face. He fully expected both girls to wake up and give him a piece of their minds, but to his utter shock, neither of them woke.

He slowly tiptoed out of the room and sighed in relief when he was in the doorway. Just as he turned to move, he slipped on Elesa's bra that had also been smartly left on the floor, and down he went again with a very loud THUD. This time something was heard.

"Hm… what was that?"

Ash groaned as he had woken both girls. Elesa was staring at him with slight amusement in her eyes, and Skyla was searching for her male. Just then, another voice sounded. "What the heck happened to you Ash?" Ash turned and saw John standing there with a towel around his waist. Skyla walked out of the bedroom and pouted playfully when she saw her boyfriend already showered.

"You should've woken me up too, we could've showered together." She whined. John smirked and said. "Too bad sleepyhead. You snooze, you lose. (AN: LMAO How bout that Pun?) She wrapped her arms around her boyfriend's neck and whispered. "I never lose." Then she kissed him firmly on lips. He kissed back.

They settled into their normal morning routine when all of the sudden a knock at the front door sounded. Ash paused and then walked to the front door. He opened it and smiled when it was his girlfriend.

"Hey Cynthia! You're back!" He exclaimed. He pecked her on the lips and John walked to the door to kiss Jasmine, who had also walked inside. Elesa and Skyla hugged the girls as well. They got along well with one another. None of them minded having to share the boys because their males always made sure to give a lot of time to each girl.

The girls dropped off their clothes and bags, unpacked, and then came to the breakfast table where John had just finished making his homemade chocolate chip pancakes. The six sat down at the table and Ash began.

"So what kind of help is he going to give us and what did you find out?" He began eagerly. The two looked at each other and Jasmine sighed.

"He won't help."

John, who currently had water in his mouth, spat it all out on the table. Ash had an incredulous look on his face. Elesa looked like she was about to explode, and Skyla looked like she was ready to go show Clemont a thing or two.

Cynthia sighed in anger. "He said he won't help because its private technology. He's worried that this technology will ruin him if he isn't the one to put it on the market, only he hasn't PERFECTED it. He said in three to four years we can find out."

John cut in. "We don't have that long."

"Yeah we know. We told him that." Jasmine told him.

"Anyway, he wouldn't let us view it or get anything that we needed. It's hopeless. We can't do anything now." Cynthia sighed miserably.

John suddenly gasped. "I have an idea... Jasmine. Hold still." Before she could ask why, she gasped as John was viewing the entire confrontation from her POV.

'This must be another one of his aura powers.' She paused to think.

John watched the entire thing start to end. He looked into the distance. "I need to think this over." He said before standing up to go outside. The group looked surprised. John rarely needed time to think about an aura vision. John opened the door to the chilly mountain. His aura kept his body warm.

The cool wind rushed through the mountaintops and John had to admit, he felt content. Just then, after about 20 minutes or so of replaying the same thing in his head over and over again…

"Eeeeev?" He looked down to see one of the four Eevee he and Ash had rescued sitting there. John smiled, Eevee were so cute.

"Hey buddy how you doing?" He picked up the Eevee from under its belly and it cooed happily. "Eeeev Eev!" He laughed. "Good to see you too!"

The four Eevee were theirs. They gave one to Cynthia, one to Jasmine, and they kept the other two, one for each of them. Cynthia's Gardevoir stayed at their house full time to watch over the four Eevee, who also stayed at the house. This Eevee who was on John's lap was his Eevee.

The Eevee noticed John's tense demeanor and questioned. "Eeeeevv Ev Eev?" John stroked its fur and it purred softly before cuddling in his muscular arms. "I'm fine little guy. Just thinking about what I saw."

And then it hit him. He suddenly gasped.

"That's my problem! I need to think about things that Jasmine DIDN'T See!" He flashed the whole thing back in his head.

FLASHBACK… NOTE… TOLD FROM JASMINE… THOUGHTS FROM JOHN…

Ilooked at Cynthia who sighed and said. "Well, on the cruise, our boyfriends were caught in the first explosion."

He nodded and turned around as if to wipe his eyes. "Many people were and many people died. It was a tragic day."

I spoke. "Well, they survived it."

Clemont whirled around, looking at me in shocked surprise. "W-what!? They lived!?"

John's eyes narrowed and paused the flashback. That wasn't right. He was sensing something… off… about Clemont. What was it? He couldn't pinpoint it. Suddenly, he found the matching emotion.

Fear. Fear? Why Fear? He shook it off and continued the flashback.

Cynthia shook her head. "No. The second explosion killed them."

Clemont's shoulders sagged, his anxiousness and excitement lost. "Oh… that's too bad…I'm sorry."

John stopped it again. Another emotion. Only this time, it wasn't fear.

It was relief. But again, relief from what?

She continued. "Yes, but in their final moments, they called us and told us that our friend has betrayed us. We need to know if it's true. They may have been lying and we don't want to yell at her if she didn't do something we were told she did."

Clemont paused before nodding. "Okay… So what can I do to help you with Serena?"

That made John stop dead in his tracks. He stopped and replayed the entire thing over once, then twice, then a third time. He couldn't believe it. There was no mistaking it. He recalled what Serena had told them and then began piecing things together, little by little.

After another twenty minutes or so, he had placed it all together. It all made sense. He knew what to do. He slowly stood up, and the Eevee, who had fallen asleep, perked it's ears up. "Eeeev?"

"Don't worry Eevee. You're safe." He stroked its fur. It cooed happily before cuddling into his arms once more. He walked into the house and called for everyone to sit at the table. The four girls and one boy all sat down at the table, and John began.

"I know why Clemont really won't help us." He said grinning.

The girls looked surprised, and Ash said. "Well? Get on with it!" John smiled and asked his friend. "Ash, what did Serena say to us before she betrayed us?" Ash looked beyond confused.

"Yes. They are a waste of my time – and so are you?" He tried.

John shook his head. "No."

"That's none of your business sweetie. Such as shame though, having to kill two very young, handsome men?" Ash recalled. Hearing those words made the girls blood boil.

"No."

"They're of no use to me. They're pests?" He guessed again.

John groaned. "Still no." The girls were giggling.

"Answer me you bitch?" He questioned. John slapped himself on the forehead. "YOU said that!" Ash looked thoughtful for a moment before chuckling and scratching his head from embarrassment. "Whoopsies. My bad."

Before John could groan again, Ash had said. "I'm part of the three pillars, a secret organization. The name is of no use to you, because you'll be dead anyway. I will say this; they've been watching your every move, just waiting with baited breath for their time to strike. Motivation, Technology, and Skill are all it takes to defeat one entirely, no matter the strength they possess?" He asked one final time.

John's eyes lit up. "YES! FUCKING FINALLY!" He said, completely exasperated.

John paused. "She claimed it was a secret organization called the three pillars. We can assume the three pillars are Motivation, Technology, and Skill."

"But… what I'm proposing is…" He looked around and grinned. "What if that organization was a load of bullshit?"

A loud group of "HUH" sounded. John smiled. "Let me explain. She claims that it's an organization but who in their right mind is stupid enough to kill us? Nobody knows of our aura powers, and we've done nothing to provoke any organization that's major enough to wage a war on us. No one is crazy enough to plant charges on a giant cruise ship unless they REALLY need someone gone, but even an organization wouldn't do that… correct?"

Everyone nodded. It made sense. John smiled once more. "What I'm proposing now is that the three pillars isn't an organization, but people, one person for each pillar."

John continued. "He created the FOLT cruise for one reason; to get rid of us for good. Serena and Clemont have been best friends for ages, it's reasonable enough to think she asked for his help. It seemed so crazy at first that I dismissed it, but then I did a little research and here's what I came up with."

"Clemont did NOT create the boat, nor pay for the boat. Rather, he endorsed it as his own. The materials came from the Lumiose City EE, the Electronic Elites. They're well known for being very nice people, and donate lots of money to the city." The group gasped.

"Clemont spoke of opposing competition and he feared that his life's work would be ruined by others. Can you guess who the number one competitor in technology other than Clemont Industries is? The Lumiose EE. He sabotaged the boat and thought nobody would consider him a suspect because everyone believed HE made the boat and endorsed it with Clemont Industries themselves, but in reality he just advertised it to make it SEEM like he created it. Everyone, including me for quite awhile, thought it was absurd to think that someone is crazy enough to sabotage their own multi-billion dollar boat… when in reality he put in some CP monitors and camera's in the engine room that HE could monitor while reverse engineering. He didn't blow up his own ship. He sabotaged his opponents greatest vessel and made it seem like it was his tragedy, while at the same time Serena tried to kill us. Ever heard the phrase, killing two pidgy's with one stone?"

"Was it coincidence that Clemont and Serena are best friends, and Clemont KNOWINGLY would set the explosives on board with a friend on board? At one point, Serena is killing us, while at another Clemont is eliminating the competition so he can be out in front of the technology market and get away with it."

John smirked. "Clemont IS The Technology Pillar. The group was skeptical. "Now hold on man, Is he crazy enough to do something as radical as that!?" Ash asked shocked.

The other girls nodded in agreement, but John held firm. "Yes, and I have proof." He turned to his girlfriend and asked her. "Do you remember when Clemont mentioned Serena?"

Jasmine paused and nodded. "Oh yes. Why?"

John looked straight at her. "You never told him the name of the girl who betrayed us."

There was a moment of silence before Jasmine gasped. She had realized Clemont's slip-up. He had said. "What can I do about Serena?" even though they had just described her as "A girl." There was no way he could've known that the girls were talking about Serena… unless…

She turned to the others. "Clemont is working with Serena."

AN: WOAH, SHOCKER! THERE'S THE TECHNOLOGY PILLAR! All that's left to do is find the other two! Who is the motivation, and who is the skill? Guess you're gonna have to come back and find out!

If you caught Clemont's slip up from last chapter, Good Job. That's what I was talking about at the end of last chapter.
