(A/N: So I got to see the 12th movie on Friday, and I have to say it was amazing, definitely one of the best out of the whole collection. However, I won't spoil anything for those who haven't seen it. Anyway, let's continue this story!)

Chapter 8: Everyone Has A Dark Side...

It was starting to dark by the hour as Chris and Emily continued into the city, trying to finish the job that was given to them. Chris, meanwhile, was feeling worried. Because of his lack of self-awareness, two of the closest friends he had were dead and gone, meaning he blamed himself. He was of course worried about the others once the mission began. But, when it came to Emily, he became even more worried, afraid for her life. Why? Was it because he was starting to have feelings for Emily? Was he really falling for her? Or maybe it was something else.

"Chris," Emily said quietly. "It's starting to get dark. Maybe we should find somewhere to reside for the night."

"Yeah, that's a good idea," Chris said. He then looked around and spotted what appeared to be a non-damaged apartment complex. "Hey, that looks like a good place."

They then headed for the bottom apartment and once getting to the door, opened it and went inside. Seeing as it was quiet, there were safe inside. "The place looks abandoned," Emily noted.

"Whoever was here before didn't exactly have much to get all their stuff," Chris said, noticing there was still furniture and carpet in most of the rooms. He then went to the bedroom. "Well, at least there's a bed to sleep in."

Emily joined him in the room and both of them sat on top of the bed. "It's been a long day," she sighed.

"Yeah it has," Chris said.

"I had known Dex and Rick for so long, and just like that, they're both gone," Emily said. She then looked to Chris and he saw that she again had tears in her eyes. "Chris, we both know we're next. They're sending people out to kill us. What will we do?"

"Emily," Chris said, taking ahold of her shoulders. "Nothing's going to happen to us, I promise. I wish I could've done something more, and maybe they may still be alive."

"No!" Emily said quickly. "It's not your fault. There was nothing you could've done. Things just... happen for a reason."

"Yeah," Chris said. As much as he hated the phrase, he still believed it.

Emily then rested her head on Chris' shoulder. "It hasn't been long but already I miss them so much."

Chris looked at her and then put his arm around her, pulling her closer. "So do I," he then said. "So do I." It was then quiet for a couple of minutes. With Emily as close to him as she was now, he was feeling hesitant but now was the time to tell her. "Emily?" he then said.

"What is it?" Emily asked, looking at him.

(A/N: Okay, I don't want to interrupt this, so I'm doing this now. Anyway, I used this song last story and decided to use it again. The name of it is "Unforgotten" from the Halo 2 soundtrack.)

"I remember what you said, the other day," Chris said, looking to her. "And the truth is, even though I couldn't say it that day, I feel the same way."

"You do?" Emily asked, who actually didn't seem that surprised.

"Yes," Chris said. "I don't know how to explain it, but seeing you, my heart just races and my thoughts go elsewhere. And then... all I can really think about is you."

Emily just laughed. "Aw, Chris," she said, giving him a hug. "You could've told me the first time instead of waiting so long."

Once breaking the hug, Chris then said, "But thinking back to what you just said, who knows what might happen to us. Emily, if this is going to be our final moment, then it's best if we make it worth our while."

*"Huh?" Emily said. But before she could continue, Chris went up to her and placed his lips against hers, catching her by surprise. However, she quickly kissed him back while placing her arms around his neck. He then moved forward, causing her to lay on the bed with him on top of her, while still kissing her.

While caressing her thigh, Emily then started unbuttoning Chris' uniform and Chris then realized what she wanted to do, even though he knew he wanted to do the same. After sliding off his uniform, Chris then started doing the same to Emily's, soon exposing the sports bra she was wearing. Smiling slightly, she then took it off and started kissing him again.

After doing the same thing again and again, they both found themselves under the covers, exposed. If Chris thought Emily was beautiful before, she seemed to radiate even more now. Holding each other close, Emily then said, "Chris, I have to be honest. I'm a little nervous, since this is my first time and all."

Chris was a bit surprised by the comment, but quickly smiled. "Don't worry, you have nothing to worry about. But if you don't feel ready yet, then-"

"No, I'm ready," Emily said, interrupting him. "Just... be gentle at first, okay?"

"Of course," Chris said. Emily then got on top of him and started kissing him again while he felt himself go inside her, causing Emily to grit her teeth a bit in pain. Out of nowhere, Chris started feeling these intense feelings, feelings he had never experienced before. He couldn't explain it fully, but it felt like his true instincts were coming out, and it seemed that Emily was feeling the same. Well, most of their DNA was Pokemon, so it made sense they were feeling these bestial feelings.

Almost immediately, Chris grabbed ahold of Emily, kissing her even more passionately. The intensity increased, as their motions increased in speed, and despite what Emily said, she was enjoying every moment of it. They then rolled over on the bed, with Chris on top, touching her soft skin. Emily then looked to Chris and he saw in her eyes a combination of surprise and fear. "Chris," she practically moaned. "I love you." Chris then knew she was close, just like he was.

He then kissed her again, trying to calm her down. "I love you too." Their breathing increased more and more until finally Emily felt herself come, which for her could've been the most intense sensation she could've ever felt. Chris then followed soon after, coming right inside her, neither of them even bothered by it, and then laid his head right on top of her chest, breathing heavily.

"Chris, what just happened?" Emily then asked.

"I have no idea," Chris said, knowing what she was talking about. "I've never experienced anything like that before. I didn't even feel like myself anymore."

"Well, whatever it was," Emily said. She then smiled. "It was still enjoyable. We should try doing this more often."

"Um," Chris said, who was starting to blush once again.

Emily just giggled. "I was just kidding," she said, giving him a quick peck on the cheek. "But really though, I want to thank you."

"For what?" Chris asked.

"For trying to make me feel better," Emily replied. "I've gone through so much lately, but right now, I for once feel at peace."

Chris smiled as he stroked her arm. "I feel the same," he said. "But, come tomorrow, we know what we have to do."

"Yes," Emily said, nodding. "Still," she added, resting her head on Chris' chest. "I wish this night would last forever."

"I wish the same," Chris thought. "Wait, did I really say in that mind? Well, you can't deny what you truly feel." "Well, we do have a couple hours to spare. Emily?"

Emily, however, had fallen asleep. Chris smiled, and even he himself felt rather tired. It definitely had been a long day, experiencing what they did, among other things. He then gave Emily a quick peck on the forehead. "Sweet dreams," he said. Little did he know that after doing that and closing his eyes, Emily smiled a bit while opening one of her eyes.

(A/N: Okay, now it's the time for another weird and strange scene, and a song to accompany it. The name of the song is "Children (Dream Version)" by Robert Miles. Yeah, it's kind of a weird name for a song but it's still awesome. If you happen to find either the six or seven minute version, use that one because it helps with the scene.)

*It was a cold, damp, rainy night. The city was nothing more than smoke and rubble, due to the battle that had taken place. The entire place reeked of death, due to the many men and women who had sacrificed their lives to either take or protect the city.

Chris woke up to find himself in an abandoned alleyway. He instantly felt the rain on his skin, or fur he should say, since he once again found himself as a Pikachu. "What? Where am I?" he asked out loud. It seemed like Sunyshore, but something seemed wrong.

He then heard laughter, and a voice. "So, we finally meet."

Chris turned around and saw another Pikachu staring at him with a smirk on it's face. It was like he was staring into a mirror. "Who are you?" he asked.

"Ha, you don't recognize me?" the Pikachu said. "I am you, at least somewhat. I represent the dark feelings inside of you, the darkness inside of your heart."

"I don't know what you're talking about," Chris said.

"Oh, but you do," the Pikachu said, going to him. "At one point, you couldn't even hurt a person without thinking twice. Now, you just kill without any hesitation, and that is all you have done and may always do."

"I don't need to listen to you!" Chris said angrily. "You're just a figment of my imagination."

The Pikachu chuckled. "Maybe so, but I can feel the anger swelling inside of you. And why is that? Because of the loss of your friends and family? Or maybe it's because you're worried about another, someone else? Could she be next?"

"Shut up!" Chris yelled, charging at him, trying to go for a punch, but the Pikachu dodged it with ease.

"Well, it appears I was correct," the Pikachu then said. "You focus all your power on your anger, and look what it gets you. Nothing. There's nothing to live by with anger."

"Are you trying to confuse me?" Chris asked. "Because I'm not listening."

"Very well, I didn't want to resort to this, but I guess I don't have a choice," the Pikachu said. "If you're so intent on wanting to get rid of me, then you'll have to do it the hard way."

"I'll gladly accept it," Chris said. He then closed his eyes and all of a sudden, out of the clouds a giant bolt of lightning struck the ground, hitting the Pikachu full-force. However, the Pikachu didn't seem too phased by it.

"Not bad," he said. "I see you've come a long way since your transformation, but get a load of this!" He then fired a Charge Beam attack right at Chris, hitting him.

Chris felt the full force of the attack and he stumbled slightly in pain. "He's strong, I'll give him that," Chris thought. "But I won't let him win this one." He then charged forward and then, struck the Pikachu in the face using Mach Punch.

"What!?" the Pikachu said, shocked. "How did you learn such a an attack."

"I thought you already knew, since you're apparently me," Chris said.

"You insolent little... ingrate!" the Pikachu said angrily, baring his fangs. "You're stronger than I thought, but I can't let you live." All of a sudden, his appearance changed and instead of a Pikachu, there now stood a Ninetales.

"What... what are you?" Chris asked.

"I've already told you," the Ninetales said. It then used Psychic and sent Chris flying back, hitting the wall hard. Chris tried to get up, but couldn't due to the pain he was feeling in his body. He then realized it was the Ninetales doing this because Ninetales had the ability to control their opponents, even cause them pain. "Sorry Chris, but this appears to be the end for you." The Ninetales then used Dark Pulse, and it was the last thing Chris saw before blacking out into darkness.

(A/N: Okay, so pretty much this chapter involved intense sex, fighting, "death," and a Pokemon that keeps popping up in Chris' dream. Sounds like my kind of story. Anyway, I was gonna plan on continuing with more for this chapter but decided to stop it here. Next chapter will be the interesting one, with all sorts of things happening. By the way, I would have no idea what Pokemon sex is like. You'd have to ask either Pikachu or Pikette.

Pikachu and Pikette – WHAT!?

Anyway, hope you enjoyed the chapter and more will be revealed along the way.)
