Chapter 8: Sapphires' Wish

After realizing that she just let her lover mate with someone else before her, Sapphire decided to go and find them in the forest. After two hours of walking Sapphire caught the scent of two Pokémon that just recently mated, but then realized that the two 'Pokémon' were actually a human and a Pokémon, and instantly knew that it was Bill and Lucy. So, being curious, she followed the scent until she found her two friends asleep in each others' embrace.

After a few hours, Lucy and Bill woke up, kissed briefly, and bill got dressed before going back to camp. Once they got back to camp they saw Sapphire cooking dinner. Sapphire looked up, smiled, and said "Mornin you two, sleep well?" She asked. "Why yes we did, thank you for asking" Lucy said slyly. Sapphire then asked "Bill, could you please tell me if this tastes OK?" Bill nodded and tasted the food Sapphire made. "Sapphire this is delicious, what's in it?" "Oh, just some berries I found" She said. "Well, it's really good." As the three friends ate, Sapphire was looking at Bill longingly. After a moment she stopped looking at Bill and looked at Lucy, who was looking at Bill with a loving tenderness in her eyes. After they ate and the dishes where clean, Sapphire took Bill aside and said "Bill, when I go into heat, will you mate with me?" This shocked Bill, but he said "Sure, but when will you go into heat?" "I don't know." After a moment of silence, Sapphire said "Bill, you said you loved me right?" Bill simply nodded. "Well, if you ever feel that way about Lucy, promise me you'll tell her. OK" "Sapphire, I promise I'll tell her." The couple then kissed briefly and rejoined Lucy.

The next morning Bill saw his enemy Phillip, and was surprised to find that Lucy and Sapphire proceeded to hide behind him, clearly scared. "Lucy, Sapphire, is he the guy that beat you up?" The two said nothing but slowly nodded in union.
