May let out a smirk as they both ate breakfast. May could see the dream that Houndour changed with Nightmare had really had an effect on Alex as she had spent the entire morning blushing while taking sneak peeks at Absol.
May was split on if she wanted Alex to be nicer to her today or if she wanted her to continue to be a snob to her. One on hand, if Alex was friendly and polite to her, May wouldn't mind making friends with her and letting bygones be bygones.
But if she was a bitch then she could have Houndour use Nightmare on her again to cause her more embarrassment and discomfort.
"Hurry up and eat. I want to get a move on," Alex said unkindly as she stood up and started to pack the rest of her camp away.
May decided that Alex needed punishing again tonight as she didn't believe for a moment that Alex would be kind and polite for the rest of the day if this were how she was starting the morning.
May bit her tongue as she packed her camp away and ignored Alex while she hugged Houndour and gave him another treat for all of the good work that he had done last night.
After packing her camp away, May looked at the sky and was sure they would be able to get to Oldale Town before noon and get to the first significant city Petalburg where her dad was the gym leader of the 4th Gym of the region.
May smirked as she saw Alex give her Absol a nervous look, something that Absol seemed to pick up and tried to comfort its trainer. A part of May felt bad for Absol, given she had made it sad by getting her revenge, but Alex quickly pushed what was in her mind and gave Absol a large hug.
May was jealous that Alex had such a cool pokemon like Absol, but she wouldn't trade Houndour for anything in the world. The rest of the morning went by silently.
While May would prefer to talk, she knew Alex wouldn't be any good to talk to and would just brush her off. Though if there was a rare pokemon on the Route, they were walking, then she would tell Alex about them.
Though who would get to try and catch the rare Pokemon first was another matter. After all, it would be good for her to be able to study rare or uncommon Pokemon, unlike Alex, who would use it to battle. Not that it wouldn't be good for her to study a pokemon in that environment either.
It was only a few hours later that they arrived at Oldale Town, which was a small town with only a total of 25 people in total living in the town. Still, thankfully they had a Pokemart and Pokemon centre, both of which were major lifelines to all trainers and travellers.
May had heard that large towns or cities had Pokemon marts that had so much more for trainers to pick from. An example of this was that the Pokemon mart in this small town only sold Pokeballs and didn't have Great balls or Ultra balls, let alone the speciality Poke balls.
But they did have the bare necessities that trainers would need, like potions, antidotes, and burn spray, and for the trainers that could afford it could buy a full heal that would heal most injuries.
Though the price was far too expensive for most people to think about buying when two towns over the full heal were far cheaper, and the chance of needing it was very slim.
"I want to buy some more Pokeballs and potions before we carry on to the next town," Alex said, walking off to the Pokemart without waiting for May to reply.
May wasn't sure how she would ask Houndour to punish her when they made camp tonight, but she would make sure that it was as humiliating as possible for her.
May walked off to the exit of the town that led to the next town with the 5th Gym and sat down, waiting for Alex to finish buying what she needed. Soon minutes had turned into an hour, and May was getting really annoyed with Alex taking so long.
Eventually, May saw Alex walking toward her with her bag full of items that May was sure they wouldn't need, with the most strange being the X speed, attack and defend.
They were all used when training a set stat of your Pokemon, but there was no way they had time to do that while travelling to the next city. May decided not to say anything that the last thing she wanted to do for the next two hours was argue with Alex over something stupid.
Honestly, she would love to talk all about Pokemon and what type of team she would like to build etc. As the assistant to the Pokemon professor of the region, she had a far more profound knowledge of Pokemon than most trainers did.
May stood up silently and walked out of town and onto Route 102.
"Not sure if you care, but the new Pokemon on this Route are Seedot, which is a grass type that will become Grass and dark type after evolving. Lotad, which is a grass and water type.
There is also Ralts, a psychic/fairy type that can evolve into Gardevoir, the same type or Gallade, a psychic and fighting, and Surskit, a water and bug Pokemon." May explained.
May was a little surprised that Alex hadn't interrupted her during her explanation and even seemed to be listening and taking on what she was saying about each of the new Pokemon on the Route.
"Hmm, I will think about it im not sure what I want my team to be," Alex said before falling back into silence. The next few hours passed quickly as they made their way into the next city, with Alex turning down the two trainers they came across as they wanted to make it as far as they could today.
Entering Petalburg, May noticed Alex looking at her.
"Do you need to stop to see your dad?" Alex asked.
"Nope, not right at this moment. I often travel to Rustboro with the professor, so it's not a big deal when we leave for Dewford Town. I shall wish him goodbye then as it could be months since I next see him," May said as they walked past the Gym.
A part of May wanted to see her dad as they passed by, but she knew that she had to get used to the idea of not seeing her parents for long amounts of time after all, other than at the Pokemon centre or using someone's house she wouldn't be able to video call her parents.
It could be weeks or even months in between when she would be able to talk to her parents on a video call, so she might as well get used to it now. They quickly left Petalburg City, stepping onto Route 104.
"Is there anything new on this Route?" Alex asked.
"Taillow, the flying type is sometimes seen on this Route. While they can appear on the routes before this one, it isn't common for them to do so," May said.
"Oh hey, look, a trainer," Alex said, looking over to a boy on the beach.
"I thought we were in a rush to get to Rustboro?" May asked.
"No, we were in a rush to get to Petalburg woods which is a 30ish minute walk from here, so we have time for a battle," Alex said, walking off towards the boy on the beach with Absol.
May couldn't help but think that Alex was bullying the boy. After all, her brother was the Pokemon league champion, and she has had Absol for years and no doubt spent the last year training and doing mock battles.
The boy on the beach was very young, maybe only around 14 years old, and May was sure that he wouldn't react well to losing. She let out a sigh as she followed behind Alex.
"Hey, you want to battle," Alex asked as she walked up to him.
May watched excitedly at the train wreck that was going to happen. A part of her hoped that Alex would lose, but she doubted that would happen and was just hoping that the kid would kick up a fuss.
"Hmm, I guess I can show you a thing or tow the boy said, cocky.
"Let's see who teacher who," Alex said, grabbing a Pokeball from her belt and throwing it out as the boy did the same.
"Treecko, go!" Alex shouted.
"Seedot, I pick you!" The boy said.
May looked at the two Pokemon as she planned out the battles and the best way to deal with the battle. They were both Grass typed, so there was no type advantage for them to either side to gain.
So it would come down to who could plan the best strategy.
"Treecko use sand attack," Alex called out, starting the battle. Treecko rushed forward, kicking up sand into the air before blowing it towards Seedot.
May had to agree that a sand attack was a good move to use on the beach as there was lots of fine sand.
"Seedot dodge," the young boy said in a panic. The Seedot tried to evade by jumping away, but with all the extra sand from the beach, the poor Seedot was engulfed in the sand.
"Excellent work Treecko, Now use detect and body slam," Alex said next. Treecko stared into the sand cloud that was starting to get thinner before jumping high in the sky and coming crashing down, sending the sand cloud everywhere.
Once the dust had cleared, it was easy to see that Treecko had won by far as Seedot was passed out on the ground from the detect and body slam combo.
"Noo Seedot," the boy called out, running over to his Seedot and falling down next to it.
"Yes, amazing job Treecko," Alex shouted, pulling the happy Treecko into a big hug.
May looked at the boy again and could see that he looked quite angry at Alex celebrating that she had won the first battle, even if it was a fair battle.
"Return Seedot," the boy said quietly as Alex copied him a second later.
"You ready for the next battle?" Alex asked, either not noticing the boy's mood or not caring about it.
"Hmm, fine, my next pokemon is my strongest," The boy said proudly, grabbing a Pokeball from his belt.
Alex made no move to grab her Pokeball with Treecko inside it.
"Absol, let's do this," Alex called out with Absol jumping forward majestically and with an aura of confidence.
"Fine, Taillow, let's blow them away!" the boy shouted, throwing his Pokeball out, revealing his Taillow. May didn't bother getting her Pokedex out as she had already added it to her dex years ago, the same with almost all the Pokemon from here home to Rustboro city.
"Taillow, use quick attack," the boy shouted the moment Taillow was out of its Pokeball.
May saw Alex's eye twitch at the move. While Pokemon battles had lots of written rules down for how battle must happen, there were also lots of unwritten rules in Pokemon battles.
For example, making sure your opponent is ready to start the duel, May was sure that Alex had not only heard these rules many times but was strictly brought up to follow them.
She knew that the Pokemon champion Steven was widely known as a kind and honest Pokemon trainer that wouldn't use underhand tricks like the young boy just did.
Steven was even known to give the people he had won battles against items like super or hyper potions to make sure their Pokemon were okay in the time it took to get to a Pokemon centre.
"Absol, use Arial ace to dodge and then follow up with Dark pulse," Alex said. Absol vanished from view a second before Taillow could strike and appeared behind Taillow before firing a beam of dark energy out of his mouth. The dark pulse hit the poor Taillow, that was still confused that it hadn't hit Absol and was sent crashing into the sand.
"Absol quick use bite," Alex followed up, showing the young boy no mercy.
Not that May could feel bad for the boy. He knew that it wasn't the done thing to attack the moment after you released your Pokemon onto the field and did it anyway in the hope of getting a cheap shot in.
Absol appeared next to the Taillow and bit down on the wing, causing the Taillow to pass out and ending the battle.
"Taillow!" the boy shouted, running over to his Pokemon as Absol let go of Taillow and walked over to Alex, who was walking up to the boy as she searched through her bag. If May had to guess, she was going to get a potion for him.
May walked over, and the boy returned his Taillow to its Pokeball as Alex and May arrived next to him.
"Hey, good battle, but better look next time, here use..." Alex said as the boy spun around and looked at Alex in anger.
"You cheated," the boy shouted as he grabbed Alex's shirt and skirt and pulled, trying to throw her to the floor.
There was a loud ripping sound, and Alex came crashing to the ground as the boy jumped to his feet, running off.
Both May and Absol were treated to an amazing view. The tear in Alex's shit didn't show anything exciting but her skirt and be ripped clean off, revealing her underwear.
May wasn't really sure what she expected Alex to wear in terms of underwear, maybe something expensive but comfy she wasn't expecting her to be wearing something of sheer lace that was transparent.
Absol walked over and nudged Alex, who seeing her situation, turned bright red and let out a scream grabbing her ripped shirt and covering up her waist as she turned bright red.
"Stop looking," Alex screamed at May and pushed Absol away.
"Relax, we are both girls," May said, rolling her eyes as she walked over to Absol and patted his head softly.
Alex rushed to cover herself up before pulling a jacket out of her backpack as well as another skirt that she quickly pulled on while glaring at everything in sight.
"If I ever see that boy again," Alex muttered as she pulled on a jacket and zipped it up, covering the torn-up shirt.
"Right, well, the forest isn't very far, so let's go and get a camp set up before it gets too dark," May said, knowing how much of a pain it would be to set up camp in the night.
Alex just glared at May, still angry at what happened with the boy, before storming off.
"Come on, Absol, let's catch up," May said as she gave Absol one last pat as it hurried off to catch up with Alex.
The next hour of walking till they got to the entrance of Petalburg Woods was tense and full of awkward silence. Even the wild Pokemon seemed to be avoiding them.
"Any new pokemon in here?" Alex asked as they sat down to eat some food before entering the woods.
"A few there is the bug Pokemon Wurmple and its evolutions Silcoon and Cascoon which can evolve into Beautifly and Dustox respectively. We are not likely to come across Silcoon and Cascoon, but during the day, Beautifly is possible and Dustox at night.
Other than Shroomish is quite common, and if we are fortunate, then Breloom could show up, but there have only been a few sightings per year of them.
There is also the tiny chance of a Pincer or Scyther," May added at the end.
"Pincer or Scyther, aren't they from Kanto? What is the chance of them showing up all the way over here?" Alex asked.
"A trainer must have either let one go, or they let an egg in the daycare, and it was released after hatching and made its way over here," May said, having long thought about it.
"Well, let's hope we are super lucky and Pincer or Scyther show up. They would be an amazing addition to my team," Alex said, looking excited.
"Okay, but we only have four, maybe five hours of daylight left, so we can hike for three hours, but then we need to set up camp," May said.
"Fine, let's go," Alex said, full of excitement. May wondered if this was where the rush of her journey would start given how rich her family was as she had most likely been to different cities before but going through a forest was something she wouldn't have ever done.
May just smiled and walked behind her as they entered the forest. As they walked through the woods, they came across many bug-type Pokemon, which all ran away after seeing or feeling Absol walking with them.
May wasn't very surprised about this. It was well known that strong Pokemon could frighten weaker or timid Pokemon away, and Absol was no doubt a good six years old with training. He was no doubt a powerful Pokemon.
Add on to the fact that bug Pokemon, for the most part, are not predators and don't typically hunt for food, and it made sense they would try and avoid Absol.
"Hey, look," Alex said, whispering as she grabbed May and pointed to a tree with an extra thing attached to the side of the tree that was moving.
"It's a Pinsir," May said, looking shocked. She had never seen one in person before, let alone in the wild.
"Awesome," Alex said before looking at Absol.
"Absol use Dark Pulse," Alex ordered.
Absol jumped forward and a ball of black and purple energy formed in front of Absol's mouth before shooting at the still unaware Pinsir, who was hit by the Dark Pulse and sent flying from the tree.
Pinsir quickly jumped up after crashing into the ground, and yellow and orange energy surrounded the Pinsir as it let out a growl seeing the Absol that had attacked it as it was eating its dinner.
"Hmm, a focus energy," Alex said, seeing what the Pinsir did.
"Absol, use quick attack," Alex said, not waiting for Pinsir to attack.
Quickly Absol leapt forward as a white blur and crashed into the Pinsir that slid back from the blow but otherwise seemed fine even after the attack.
The Pinsir buried its horns into the ground and tore a large section of the ground out of the ground, and lunched it at Absol.
"Absol, use quick attack to dodge," Alex said quickly, seeing the large section of the earth coming at Absol.
Absol quickly turned into a white blur and dodged the large section of earth. "Absol, use slash and follow it up with a headbutt," Alex said.
May watched as Absol quickly used its claws the slash the Pinsir on the top of its head before following it up with a vicious-looking headbutt that made the Pinsir stumble back and look dizzy.
"Now Absol finish it with an Iron Tail," Alex said, seeing that Pinsir was almost knocked out.
Absol tail glowed a bright white as it spun around, slamming its tail into the body of the Pinsir, sending it flying into the sky and crashing to the ground and not getting back up.
"Awesome job, Absol," Alex said before pulling out a white-coloured Pokeball and throwing it at the out cold Pinsir, which was surrounded by red energy and pulled into the Pokeball.
The button of the Pokeball flashed red once before turning a solid red and fading leaving the Pokeball where the Pinsir was, signifying that the capture was successful.
"YES!" Alex shouted, seeing that the Pinsir was captured, and ran over to Absol before jumping on the Absol and pulling him into a hug, falling onto the ground.
"Well done, Pinsir is a really rare Pokemon in this region. It will no doubt catch many people by surprise in battles," May said, walking up to Alex, who was still celebrating.
May and Alex hiked for another hour before reaching the spot where they would be camping at.
"I will go get some firewood," May said, placing her tent down and pulling out a Pokeball and letting Houndour out to follow her just in case she was attacked.
"I will set up the tents," Alex said as she grabbed May's tent and started to set the tents up next to each other.
May put it out of her mind and guessed that Alex was just being nice for once. It didn't take May very long to gather all of the required wood for the fire, and left her arms full as she walked back.
Getting back to camp, May was surprised that her tent was also set up for her, which was far more than she expected. It threw her off a little bit with Alex doing something nice to her, given the last two days she had been less than nice.
"Thank you," May said as she walked back into the camp and started to build the fire pit not far away from the tents to keep them warm before going to sleep.
"Houndour use ember," May said after piling the wood in the firepit.
Houndour shot out small balls of fire into the fire pit, which soon turned into a large warm, inviting fire. Houndour walked over close to the pit before laying down and basking in the warmth.
"I hadn't thought about how to start a fire. It's a good job you had a fire type," Alex said as she walked over with Absol.
"I have a lighter and a fire stick, but Houndour is much easier," May said as she started to pet Absol.
"Who's a gorgeous Absol? You are, aren't you," May said playfully to Absol as she brushed down his body.
May looked over at Alex, who was giving her a strange look. "What?" May asked.
"I thought you hated Absol?" Alex asked.
"No, I don't hate any Pokemon," May said honestly she really loved all Pokemon.
"Why did you give Absol a strange look when we first met then," Alex asked, narrowing her eyes.
"It's the first time that I had ever seen a real Absol before most people avoid them due to stupid stigma," May said, only being half truthful. There was no way she was going to tell Alex she had fantasised about being at the mercy of Absol as it railed her.
"I see... I am sorry about how I treated you the last two days. I thought you hated Absol," Alex apologised.
"No problem, I get it. I would act the same if someone hated my partners as well," May said.
"Well, let's head off to bed. If we get up early, then we can get to Rustboro City just after midday." Alex said, grabbing her sleeping bag.
Watching her go, May looked down at Houndour before picking him up and whispering, "Make sure she has a really nice dream tonight," she said, no longer angry at Alex.
Houndour nodded as he watched Alex crawling into her sleeping bag and waiting for her to fall asleep before using Nightmare on her.
Dream realm
"I can't believe how large these woods are? This is our second day walking through," Alex complained.
"Well, technically, it is a forest, but I think they thought woods sounded better," May said back to her.
"Well, it doesn't make the walk any better," Alex said again as a Wurmple jumped out of a bush.
Wurr Wurrple! the Pokemon said, looking at them both.
"What you going to do string shot us?" Alex said, annoyed and went to continue walking.
Wurr Wur Wurmple, the Wurmple said before shooting tick stick silk-like strings at Alex that was soon tangled in the stings and fell over.
A moment later, Absol came charging out of now where and crashed into the Wurmple, sending it flying into the forest with a cry.
"Hey, get me out of this," Alex shouted as she squirmed on the floor.
May walked over to her with a smile on her face before pulling the top of her shirt down and cupping her breasts.
Alex stuttered in her shock at what her new friend was doing and struggled to form any words. May reached down and pulled up Alex's skirt, reviling her underwear.
"What are you doing," Alex shouted as she was still trying to get to grips with what was actually happening.
May wasted no time in massaging and fondling Alex's large breasts, slowly coaxing her nipples till they became hard with excitement. Reaching down, May pulled Alex's panties off in one swift move as Alex was too distracted with her playing with her breasts to stop her.
"Absol, why don't you use lick on Alex," May said as she went back to using one hand to play with Alex's breasts and the other to hold Alex's tied-up ankles above her head.
"Nooo, Absol, don't," Alex said a moment too late as she caught up with what May said.
Absol let out a long lick of his tongue, scraping all of Alex's slightly wet sex and making her moan in pleasure before turning bright red at the noise that she just made.
"Feels good, right," May said before looking back at Absol, who had stopped after Alex had shouted, but her moan had settled any doubt Absol had, and he went back to licking his trainer.
Alex squirmed as Absol licked her, and May caressed her breasts, leading down. May quickly pulled her into a deep and passionate kiss before breaking it as Alex's moans got deeper and more often.
"Fuck, please stop," Alex said as she tried to wriggle out of May's grasp and away from the tongue that was ravishing her.
"Is someone going to cum," May said teasingly as she watched Alex getting closer and closer to her climax.
"May please," Alex said desperately as she was at the edge of her climax.
"Ya ya, I know what you need," May said, smilling before she pinched and pulled on Alex's nipples tipping her over the edge and erupting in a powerful orgasm.
Real-world
Alex woke up with a large gasp and panting, looking around before noticing that her hand was buried in between her legs. Pulling her hand out, she could feel it slick with her fluids and looked at her hand with guilty passion.
Listening for a few moments, she laid back down and rubbed her needy sex a few times as her mind went back to the pleasure she felt in the dream of Absol licking her.
Her eyes flicked over to where Absol was sleeping just outside the tent. The urge to call him into her tent was on the tip of her tongue before she had a small orgasm at thinking about doing the act in real life, and she sighed in contentment.
Alex wasn't sure why the dreams had started as she hadn't ever thought about Pokemon in such a way before, but she couldn't help but feel excited to fall back to sleep and into another dream.
