Misty is on top of the world right now. She glances over at ash who is finishing rolling up his bedroll and gives him a great big goofy smile and upon catching her shoots one right back at her. Everything this morning went better than she could have imagined and she was so happy to not have to hide anything from him anymore, finally free to just be herself and know that he would accept her for exactly who she was, and that was quite an amazing feeling to have.

"are you ready to go misty?" ash asks her throwing his pack up on his shoulders.

Just as misty was going to respond, mouth already open and forming words, the door to their room slams open, a diminutive figure in a dark simple one piece dress that hung poorly on her malnourished body, their fingers and feet were black with grime, black hair flying everywhere framing a snow white face with incredibly wide purple eyes buried within sunken sockets. She had the distinct appearance of a corpse come to life and it was incredibly unnerving to them both.

"who ar-" ash can't finish his question before being shrilly interrupted by this new presence.

"you are in my house!" the girl yells in an impossibly high pitched voice

Misty recoils yelping slightly and moves to stand next to ash figuring there's definitely strength in numbers in situations like this, her fingers falling lightly atop the pokéballs hung from her waist, she knows ash is doing exactly the same thing.

Stepping forward and into the now well-lit room they can both see that her dress is open slightly, most of the buttons undone, her chest heaving visibly, skin tight enough to outline her bones beneath.

"you are in my house, naked in my house"

"we didn't mean any harm! We just needed a place to spend the night!" ash calls out trying to explain their presence

"in my house! committing lewd acts in my house!" her right hand glides up her side and into her dress where she forcefully gropes at herself, the left absentmindedly undoing the remaining buttons allowing the remainder of the dress to fly open. Light from the window shines over the newly exposed flesh more signs of malnutrition and more signs that she was apparently extremely aroused, shiny liquid visibly running down between her legs.

"ash she was watching us.."

"we didn't see anyone here.. There's no way we could have known!"

"in my house! Fucking each other like animals in! my! House!"

Her left hand now fondling her dripping cunt head tilted back moaning but gigantic eyes still focused heavily upon the two of them with an insane hunger.

"I really don't like this ash.. This poor girl needs help!"

"well I'm open to ideas.. We need to get out of here fast."

As if hearing them planning to run three dark shadows bubble and rise out of the floor before them forming into a sableye, banette, and a litwick. It's quite an odd scene being set before them, ghost types closing in towards them ash and misty each throw out a pokémon while the girl violently writhes around in the doorway continuing to masturbate vigorously.

Decidueye and golduck appear from their respective balls quickly taking up battle stances waiting for their trainers guidance. Misty is quick to have golduck strike sableye with a powerful aqua tail sending it flying towards a far corner of the room while litwick and banette attempt to both attempt to curse ash's pokémon but Decidueye manages to throw them both off throwing out a massive leaf storm nearly cutting all vision in this tiny space as green energy swirls around them.

Litwick weakly attempts to throw out a firespin in ash's direction but is stopped by a precisely aimed water pulse being emitted by golduck cleanly taking it out of the fight. Banette attempts a stealthy shadow sneak appearing menacingly behind misty ready to attack her with a terrifying sucker punch but ash's Decidueye counters the attempt perfectly with its own shadow ball causing banette to fall to the floor now out of the fight. The only attacker left being sableye which misty knocks out with another well placed aqua tail.

Panting from the rush of an unannounced battle misty and ash are left with their host, who was now fingering herself deeply while moaning low and gutturally clearly reaching her limit.

"ash I really don't want to leave her here.. I think that she might not actually belong here." she says hoping that ash agrees.

"we could take her to town, maybe the police will be able to help her? But we can't take her like this, and we should really hurry and leave before they or any other friends appear to stop us."

"I think I have an idea, golduck, hypnotize her now please."

As golduck complies, the girl crumples down onto the floor below in a bundle of arms and legs looking extremely delicate and sad.

Misty works on rebuttoning the dress while ash pulls out a blanket from his bedroll so they can wrap her in it.

Because she is incredibly light ash is able to carry her easily on her back while misty takes both of their packs as they head downstairs and through the front doors back into the waiting forest. It doesn't take long before they reach the edge of the forest and enter eterna city quickly flagging down a policeman and telling them about the girl they found in the old abandoned mansion.

they learn that her name is valerie and it appears that she had been missing for about 4 years and no matter what search teams had done, were never able to find her. Confirming quickly that she most definitely have any connection to that house they were sure that her family would be very happy to see her returned safe and sound though certainly in need of some food and rehabilitation.

Sitting on a park bench, they sit still shocked about the crazy events of the past few hours.

"that poor girl had been trapped there by those ghost pokémon.. That's so sad ash."

"they were most likely feeding off of her feelings and fear, I may have told you about this but while I was travelling in unova with cilan and iris, but we had come across a haunted mansion trying to get out of the rain and had been preyed upon by a group of litwick that were trying to drag us into the ghost world. It was awful.. We felt so drained and sad almost willing to let them take us till nothing was left. I really feel for the girl knowing she was being held captive by those ghosts for so long.."

Misty slides in close to ash and he wraps a warm arm around her knowing he can't make the unpleasant feeling go away.

"I really hope she'll be ok."

"it'll take time, but I'm sure she'll be able to find her place again. They still have family that will support them it sounds like, so I'm sure she'll get better with their help.

"thanks for helping her ash, it means a lot to me."

Ash holds her tightly next to him as they sit in silence watching people go by. They just need a moment to collect their thoughts before they attempt to move on with their day and explore the new city they've found themselves in.
