Chapter: Then Leave
Lemon about 1/2 of the down

I woke up in a much different position than I fell asleep in.
Staring at the bookcase past the end of the bed, I panicked. Where was I? What happened? To my right, an avalanche of clothes was spilling out of an open closet. The corner of a nightstand was mere inches from my face because the bed was so low and I was hanging off the side of it. My first priority was to shove that out of my face immediately. The carpet fought back and soon the entire stand was toppling over lamp first. Reacting in pure panic, I threw my hand over my body and swatted it back into place. I then toppled out of the sheets cracking my ass.
A book tapped me on the head. As I grimaced, the lamp teetered again. Fumbling, I grabbed it before it broke against the carpet. So there I sat in a strange room, lying on a pile of female clothes, tangled up in sheets I had pulled off the bed, clutching a cheap lamp and rubbing my head where a little novel had hit me. It was a new and embarrassing experience for me. I put the lamp back on the nightstand and chucked the book into the closet. After a quick scan of the room, my eyes landed on the bed.
A wonder of nature greeted my eyes. There was Savanna, in nothing but a pair of black panties, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes as her hair bun hung limply at her neck. I was completely silent as Savanna put her arms down and focused on me. "Did you seriously fall out of bed?"
Perfect monuments to the glory of nature: full, round, and high on her chest topped with small pink nipples erect in the cool morning air. They were just so perfect, I could've stared at them for hours.
My mind finally started asking the proper questions. Why was she naked? I couldn't actually manage to answer her question. So I settled with throwing my hand ups in an I-don't-know way, shaking my head and studying the little cocoon of blankets that tied my feet together. The only saving grace was that it constrained my morning wood that was egged on by Savanna's state of dress. She crossed her legs and studied me intently. Each breath drawing my eyes back to those perfect globes of flesh. I pulled several layers of covers off me and threw them onto the pile of clothes. She yawned again, being incredibly nonchalant about being half naked.
I was still processing events very slowly; had we? No. We had switched to the bed and then I fell asleep after some kind of blurry conversation. "Why are you naked?"
She looked down and smiled, pressing her arms closer and creating magic. "I thought it'd be a nice surprise in the morning. Isn't it?"
"Well I-" a smile edged onto my face. It would've been better to roll over and get an eyeful of that as opposed to a bed stand. It then occurred to me that I had that exact argument the night before. I rubbed the bridge of my nose and shook my head.
She sighed and groaned out. "What now?"
"Do you realize that I yelled at Ruri for this last night? Don't just fly off the handle and do random things. How did you get the idea I wanted you to sleep half naked anyway," I asked.
Was it a trick too? I had a feeling that I was Braddock and Savanna was pulling on her stockings back on. My mind screeched to halt: had I seriously complained about that? That was the stuff my dreams were made of a week before but more to the poiunt, her trying to impress me meant that she was willing to come along.
"Are you seriously complaining about me being naked?" She voiced my exact thoughts.
"It's just - I am tired of just random shit just happening. There is way too much shit here that just defaults to the max pervert setting and it's ruining my every expectation." I growled. "That irks the shit out of me!"
She pulled her legs to her chest and shivered. Apparently, wearing nothing but a pair of panties was chilly. It actually was a bit cool compared to yesterday.
"You act like you've never been around pokégirls before," she said in a suddenly depressed tone. Her eyes narrowed as memories ran over her face. Realization came to her abruptly and I was sure she would finally reverse her decision from last night and finally come to the correct deduction. "Whatever happened to you must have really hurt you for you to block out this much of your memory."
Good Lord in Heaven.I dug my fingernail into my nose and concentrated on the sting. Inhal 4, hol 4, exhal 4. There was no point in trying to convince her. It was like trying to say I wasn't crazy: it never worked. Finally, I rubbed my fingers lose and smiled at her. I did a poor job of hiding my resignation. "I guess so."
She shivered again. I decided to put it behind me and balled the sheets into a more transportable state. I layered it the best I could and draped them around her shoulders. My hand brushed her shin and the curve of her breasts ensnared me again. I stopped and stared as she looked up expectantly at me. Staring past the pink strands of hair into her red eyes, I debated with myself. We, I let out a breath I didn't know I had been holding and sat down next to her. She pulled the sheets closer to herself and stared at the pile of clothes with me. "I'm starting to hate my Dad."
"Yeah." A pregnant silence fell between us as we both deciphered out articles of clothing in the pile.
"You should fix things up with Ruri before we leave," she said.
I silently pulled the pokéball off my belt and held it up in front of me. A black groove cut around the single white button that would release her, I studied the pokeball not really thinking, only dreading what I would say, and what she would say. I had to convince her to obey me. What did I know and how could I use that information to get what I wanted? Ruri had been a human in a well to do family. She was trained as a professional tamer. However, now she was a pokégirl with no explanation as to why.
"What are you saying?" Savanna asked suddenly.
"Huh?"
"Your mouth is moving and you're nodding to yourself," she said.
I shut my mouth with an audible click. I had thought I had broken myself of that. I gave her a nervous smile and shrugged like a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar. "Just thinking."
"Maybe I can help," she offered with an over eager smile. She seemed like the understanding sort, why not?
"I'm trying to figure out how to approach the argument with Ruri. So I'm going over what I know. Like her name is Ruri, she used to be a human. She was trained as a professional tamer, apparently. However, now she is a pokégirl and she had literally no warning that she was going to be one either. She wants some kind of control. Maybe a little stability." I nodded to myself and kept talking. "To be in control she wants to be the alpha; which is like a second in command right?"
She took a second to respond. "Uh, that's a big simplification."
"Right, so, I can give her this but she's head strong and probably feels entitled from her upbringing. She thinks she deserves to be in charge. She'll be a little rough like an ornery old-" I trailed off. A sergeant, yes. I was the new officer and she had the experience of being around pokégirls. I glanced up at Savanna and smiled. Perfect. It was a wondrous solution. "Do you object to anything?"
"Object to what? Her being alpha? No, I don't really like being in charge." She actually held up her hands to wave me off.
"So it's perfect; but she has to accept my authority. A hard thing to do with an alpha personality type. Us versus them maybe?" If I approached it as her being underestimated and play to her pride? "That's a good strategy. Tell her the world is underestimating her."
"But what if she just tries to use you?" She asked.
I could simply point out her life is over, her family's abandoned her, her life is crumbling and I'm the only hand reaching out to save her. I'd have to be careful or I'd have to scrap my sergeant plan. Perhaps I was overestimating my ability to crush someone.
She tilted her head again. "And what if she wants to leave so she can find another tamer?"
Would she really think she still had a choice in the matter? I had to actually check my thoughts. I really was starting to think like a tamer myself. The memories of the psychic filtered through my thoughts. She didn't have choice because it wasn't logical not because of something a few books said. At least, that's what I told myself.
"Good point. What about the respect angle? Supposedly she had a top notch education. That means she's useful and she probably realizes this too," I asked. "My way is better, faster, and easier though. I'm offering her the chance to skip convincing someone else of this. But what if she just nodded her head and then tried to usurp control over the team by using my authority, a coup? What if I make you alpha then? Give her a taste of real servitude?"
Her hands came up through the blankets again. "Oh no, I don't want to be alpha, especially not over her."
It was just like the pokédex said then. "Do you think Ruri knows this?"
"If she is as educated as you say than most definitely," She said.
I straightened my posture. "I have a plan. She doesn't. I'm the only opportunity she has, it's known versus unknown."
"Why don't you just tell her you don't want her to leave and that you want her to want to stay?" She murmured incredulously. She had a faraway look in her eyes as if regretting her decision. Apparently, all my scheming didn't seem appropriate to her. But then again, I had never thought of that.

I threw the pokéball into the center of the room and leaned back on the night stand to portray a more relaxed and confident posture. Ruri emerged in the same kneeling position from the night before with her eyes closed. Still nude but she smelled suspiciously clean. Her tail was lazily swinging behind her only to stop when she opened her eyes, as if coming out a deep sleep. She was doing it for theatrics though and was soon glaring at me again, the fucking drama queen. She looked over to give Savanna a distasteful look.
"So you two had fun last night," she spat.
"Actually, no." It best to get it over with. "Ruri you are my alpha. So I handled yesterday wrong."
"About time."
I rolled my eyes at her petulant tone.
"But so did you." Another fight was literally a second from breaking out but I had a non-sequitur to stop her anger. "Ruri, you're like my sergeant."
I got the worst 'what-the-fuck' look ever.
"What," she asked.
Feeling less confident in my epiphany, I continued. "You see in the military you have a platoon leader and a platoon sergeant. The platoon leader is usually some fresh faced lieutenant and he has a worldlier sergeant. The lieutenant is in charge but he respects that his sergeant has more experience, a la an education at a top academy."
That's where the analogy broke down a bit but it still fit.
She nodded as my point started to make a little more sense but abruptly said. "I don't get it."
"Ruri, last night you were a complete emotional bitch," I said with a smile. She didn't smile but I held up a finger before she exploded. "But I think you had the right idea. You were right; you have more experience with pokégirls then I do. So I should consider your expertise and not dismiss it because of how you present it. I'm ambivalent about the presentation of your activities last night but your idea was definitely too cruel. I didn't, and don't, like it."
"You think a feral will be gentle?" she asked.
"You don't get to practice on the perfectly rational members of our team," I said.
"I needed to assert my control," she said.
"No, you didn't. My authority put you in charge. That's enough for someone who wanted to join. Especially a nurse joy," I said. Ruri barked out a cruel laugh. I continued. "Fine. You don't like it. You can leave. What's your plan anyway?"
"What? If I leave your ass behind?" she asked.
I nodded.
"I'll go back to Petalburg," she said resolutely.
I was genuinely surprised. Back implied that she had something there, so maybe her family? I tried to say the next part as gently as possible. "Ruri. They gave you to Brendan; do you really want to be his property? Because that's the only other option. He didn't seem to like you very much though."
She stopped moving, I had hit a nerve. She dipped her head and a lot of pain spread across her face. Her eyes looked a little panicked as well, "I'll, I'll find another Tamer then."
"And go through all this again?" I asked. "With no certainty. With some random guy who could be worse than Brendan? Who will destroy your entire existence with a level five? I want to give you a chance to be my second, to be an equal. You want to throw that away?"
The level-five comment hit her as hard as I thought it would. She mumbled something while studying the floor.
"Huh?" I asked.
"Second is not equal," she repeated.
"Savanna and I both agree that you should be alpha. You have the experience to be my most trusted adviser and you aren't a yes man. Something I value tremendously. But you need to just give me an inch without taking a mile. You want to be a taskmaster? Fine, you can. But I draw the line in the sand and you stop," I said.
She kept staring at the ground and her shoulders sagged. I couldn't see her face and I wasn't ready to abandon my height advantage. She wasn't crying though. I sighed; time to go all or nothing.
"Ruri, I want you around. I have a feeling about you. You're stubborn as hell and I can see clearly that you have a sadistic side in you. But I want you around. Not just because of the insights you can provide or the experience or how well we could work together but because I genuinely find you interesting as a human being." I studied the pile of clothes and the ceiling unable to meet her face. Expressing my emotions was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Plus, she was just being stupid and was too proud to admit that it was a good deal. I really wanted to tell her that but it wasn't the time.
"Stupid human," she sounded more teasing then actually insulting. "You aren't supposed to treat pokégirls like humans."
"Then," I pointed at Savanna. "Why did her dad raise her as a human?"
"My Dad didn't. He just treated me very well but there's a reason you're here. I've been trained by my aunts for years to prepare for this journey," Savanna said, still huddled under the blankets. She smiled at me. "It's time for me to leave."
I shook my head. That didn't exactly mean she hadn't been raised as a human, just a combat ready one. Hell, some of those SF guys' children could claim that. Hell, they watched Black Hawk Down religiously just so they could follow in daddy's footsteps. Once again, the romance novels in the bookcase drew my eyes. Ruri started talking as soon as I had finished facing Savanna.
"How have you stayed tame?" She asked with a more respectful tone, she was till demanding but it wasn't completely insulting. Almost like a real sergeant. The thought brought a smile to my face.
She blushed. "Olivia was my taming partner."
I furrowed my brow. The name sounded familiar but it didn't clicking for me at the time. "Who's Olivia?"
"Well, uh, she's a Mistress," she stumbled, obviously nervous and embarrassed.
Ruri suddenly laughed. "Wait, wait, wait. Your Aunt was taming you? That's, that's- ew, hahahaha."
"What should I've done? Just been tamed by some random villager?" Savanna demanded. It looked strange seeing her head snarl while she was still huddled in a blanket igloo. "It was the only way I'd keep from going feral!"
She kept laughing. "Did you like it? All those chains tying you up so you could lick your Aunt's cunt?"
"It wasn't like that!" Savanna yelled.
They traded a few more lines back and forth as I tried to digest that image. I smiled perversely as the faint echo of whips wafted through my mind. Savanna dangling from a ceiling, blindfolded and vulnerable. Metal chains biting into her creamy skin and framing her perfect chest as vibrators tortured her into insanity. Off to the side, Chains fondled herself as she watched. Savanna was a submissive. I stifled a perverted giggle and gave her a drowsy smile, imaging a shiny red ball gag in her mouth. Oh the fun we would have together; Ruri obviously wasn't in to bondage but Savanna.
"Sean?" Ruri interrupted me with a rude shake of my shoulders.
I came back to reality immediately and refocused on her. She looked concerned but apprehensive.
"Wha?" I asked dumbly.
"You spaced out and had this stroke look on your face." She said, leaning back and examining me carefully. Her lips curled into a smile and she stared at me trying not to laugh. "Oh. You're in to that kind of thing."
"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked.
She held up her hands and dismissed my criticism. Savanna got off the bed keeping the blankets clasped in front of her. Demurely, she pulled the covers open so that they just barely hid her modesty.
"Would you like to ravish me Master?" She purred. The way she kept her head down and bit her lip was a devastating combo. I looked down at her appreciatively. Suddenly, I was glomped by a very naked pink-haired girl. She pressed herself against me and did a very unsubtle grinding motion against my crotch. At a loss for what to do, I wrapped my arms around her as Ruri looked on aghast. She kept her coquettish tone. "I'm well versed in being tied up."
She buried her face in my chest. I was definitely being manipulated but I definitely didn't care. Ruri responded by narrowing her eyes. Despite the soft flesh pressed against me and my body's response to it, I tried to figure out what was behind those eyes.
She looked down plotting. Wearing only a smirk, she snuck a hand around Savanna's leg and started running her hand in rhythmic motions around my leg. Except, I wasn't the target of her machinations. Another hand was placed between me and Savanna as Ruri pressed herself against the taller girl and started playing with her breasts.
"I'm well versed in dominating," Ruri whispered in her ear. "Wow, these are nice."
A heavy dose of ecstasy set Savanna's face aflame as she stared up at me; the bulge started to grow in my pants. She moaned and purred even more as Ruri started to have a dastardly effect. Having the height advantage I stared forward as this sexy sandwich played out, trying desperately to not to look down. I hated that man. Adopting a bored expression, I watched with as neutral gaze as I could summon. Savanna's only response was a sexy moan as Ruri continued to work.
I raised one brow, refusing to actively respond to her little game. It wasn't worth much with the fire beneath my cheeks but it was something.
She snickered, snacking her arm around her victim's neck. Her tongue darted out to flick Savanna's ear. I kept an even gaze, even as I rose fully to the occasion. Ruri just kept staring me in the eyes. She huffed, unsatisfied at my response, and yanked Savanna away from me. She stuck two fingers into Savanna's mouth and started playing with her tongue. Savanna played along in a drunken haze of pleasure. Leaning back, I let out a long annoyed breath and continued to watch.
"So Savanna? You think I should be Sean's 'Sergeant,'" Ruri asked and stopped her lower ministrations cold. Savanna's fingers rushed to fill the void but Ruri's cupped hand stopped them from reaching their target. Ruri wagged her fingers, simpering at me. Savanna bucked her hips to reach her assaulter's hold but Ruri had already snatched her hands and held them firmly against her abs.
"Well?" she asked again.
"es! Ease! Eh e unis!" Savanna screamed out from behind her fingers.
I really hated that man. I narrowed my eyes, a meaningless show to preserve some dignity. Ruri's mouth curled into a twisted grin.
She let Savanna suffer some more. "What was that?"
"Es! I unna cuh Ease!" Savanna begged.
"Who's the alpha?" she asked.
I took a deep breath and put my hands in my pockets; trying to portraying a completely relaxed professional - who had a raging boner and a fire under his cheeks - I cursed biology.
"ew! Ew!" finally she gasped and screamed out.
Her legs gave out and she pooled at Ruri's feet. Ruri lorded over her with a smug expression. "I guess I have to accept, Lieutenant Sean."
The way she insinuated that sentence I couldn't help feel it was a bad idea. It had a real chance of blowing up in my face if - or when - Ruri decided to steam roll anything I said. I glanced down at Savanna's near comatose form and smiled at Ruri; it wasn't a fight that needed to be resolved in that house. Not with so many ears. It would have to wait for now.
"Well, first of all, Sergeant Ruri. We need to leave and The Doctor is going to be wondering why his daughter cannot articulate herself," my voice barely wavered but it was still a chore to measure my voice.
"She can speak just fine," the sapphire-eyed bitch purred.
"What about taming-," the last word escaped me, faltering my cool façade.
"Shock?" she asked mischievously and held up an innocent finger to act like a demure school girl. "Well, a pokégirl can't tame another pokégirl and form an alpha bond. So that was just for you Master. Did you like it?"
"Only if she can still speak." I asked with a serious concern that I was going to be bounced around a roof again. Not that it colored my voice, I had that much control. Even as Ruri continued with the flirtatious femme fatale act, I couldn't help but like her more. It was fun. Not the cuckold bit but there wasn't much I could do about that. Punishing Ruri would have to wait.
Savanna, on the floor, wheezed out a satisfied laugh. "Barely."
Well, at least that was a consolation. I mirrored Ruri's smirk. She had put on a nice show. I had an inkling that she had done it to show Savanna and me who was in charge. It worked to her advantage that Savanna had submitted easily but I wasn't ready to fully trust Ruri. Sauntering forward, she threw her arm around my neck and wrapped her leg around mine. "I still need a fuck though."
Damn her. She could feel it pressing against her bare sex too. I wanted a release and Ruri knew it. We stood there burning each other with our body heat and not blinking. She was a fucking manipulative wench and her smirk said it. That was a good thing. I grabbed her tiny thigh and wrapped my hand around her slim waist. She kept smirking until I took a step back and over extended her. A brief moment of panic hit her eyes and she would have fell if I didn't have hold of her. We looked poised to tango.
"Oops. I got you," I taunted in a caring tone. She pressed her body against mine, dragging her bare chest across mine and tightening her grip on my neck. Her heel touched the back of my leg, threatening to pop my leg out as she licked her lips. And she could ruin me. We reached an understanding and I let her get her balance back then stepped away. "We have other things to do though."
Ruri growled. That little move had been to mess with and mock me, especially if I accepted her offer. I shook my head and grabbed my bag from the corner of the room. She stayed silent as I pushed past her and threw it on the bed. Savanna's cheeks were burning as I scooped her up and she looked a little out of it. She was heavier then she looked I noted. I was still able to bounce her in my arms and earn a squeal out of her. Given that she looked so intimdating, it made me feel much better. I winked at her as she looped her arms around my neck. I glanced over my shoulder.
"Thanks for helping Savanna out though. You're already carrying out my will," I said. Pointedly ignoring the 'alpha,' I looked down at Savanna. "Quite talented with her fingers isn't she?"
I hadn't planned any of it but from my tone you would have never guessed. Ruri even clicked her tongue and scrunched up her nose signaling my victory. I sat Savanna on the bed and grabbed my pokédex. Ruri finally walked over and sat down next me so that she was on my left and Savanna was peeking over my right shoulder. I smiled when I noticed that, where Ruri was reclining, was the traditional spot of subordinates. That she hadn't muttered a smart comment also made me feel better, I had scored on her. I didn't voice either thought.
"How'd you get a poképack?" Savanna asked with awe in her voice.
"Wank gave it to me," I said absently. I scrolled down to 'items' and then scrolled some more until I found a listing called 'toiletries.' I clicked it and the bag rattled. Inside was a single bulky traveling case. A toothbrush in one of those traveling pods, a thing of toothpaste (complete with a picture of teeth and a corny logo) and floss were secured to the outside. A razor, shaving cream, some razor blades, a random comb, a nail clipper and some other stuff was inside the leather case. Every toiletry I could name off the top of my head in one convenient case. Well, except toilet paper but that was next on the list.
"Going to take a shower?" Savanna asked.
I hadn't thought about it but that really wasn't my shower to just use. "Can I?"
A cheshire grin spread across her face that turned sensuous. She leaned over my shoulder to kiss me passionately. I wasn't really prepared for the kiss and hesitantly wrapped my arms around her. After a blissful moment, she pulled back with an ecstatic grin on her face. She grabbed both of our hands. Before I could stop her, I was running through the hall with two naked women clad only in my shorts. My eyes darted between the only two possible places for The Doctor to appear: the double doors and the top of the stairs. By the time we were halfway through the hall, I was running for my life and pulling Savanna and Ruri along while they kept their private bits covered. The hall stretch for an eternity until Savanna grabbed a door knob and pulled me in.
She rested against the door as the three of us shared cocky smiles and I took deep breaths. The room was bathed in an orange light highlighting the pink tiles. A glass wall split the room right down the middle enclosing a walk in shower large enough for four people. What could that be used for? Savanna brushed past me and put her hand on her hip presenting the room. "I finally get to use this shower."
Awash the soft lighting, she looked amazing. Two wisps of hair framed her face while the rest was weaved into a messy bun that revealed the nape of her neck. She was solidly built with a tight toned body, her defined arms were resting on her hips and leading directly to the shadows of her abs. My eyes drifted down to the curves of her thighs, the woman was silk hiding steel. And her pink hair was natural.
I could feel Ruri behind me, and the heat of her body almost touching me. Things quickly became much steamier and a certain energy began to fill the room. The feeling stopped any movement on my part, I had no idea what to do. Should I move forward? I couldn't simply ignore Ruri and throw myself into Savanna. How did they do it pornos? Thinking about it, they just kind of happened but I had no idea how to replicate the process. Even when two very attractive women were standing in front of me, I was frozen in place.
Savanna's smile faded and she looked towards the small tiles on the wall. Her shoulders dropped. "Um."
I bit my lip and nodded my head. Ruri walked past me, brushing my shoulder with her finger. There was a swing to her step as her tail followed along with her motion.
"Fucking virgins," She said and laughed haughtily.
Still deciphering the individual light pink tiles from the grout, I growled in my throat at the insult. She giggled again in a husky voice that didn't fit her svelte form. Still modeling and swinging on the balls of her feet, she closed on Savanna. Watching her through the mirror that ran the length of the double counter, I studied the roguish grin on her face. Savanna's awkwardness vanished as Ruri closed the distance. Reluctantly, I was actually grateful to her; even when she flipped her hair out of the way and gloated at me over her shoulder.
Savanna began to turn, but before she could hardly move, Ruri's hand pinned hers to her side, interlocking their fingers. The other returned to Savanna's waist as she circled behind her like a predator. Ruri's hips were grinding in hard as the arm steadied Savanna's body, surprising the taller woman. Lips played at her shoulder, somehow making her breaths even shallower. She glanced at me then her eyes went to the ceiling, basking in the feeling. It was a beautiful sight but it was tainted by darker feelings in my chest: jealousy, resentment, helplessness.
The last grind against her hips had broken Savanna's immobility; she circled her hips, pushing backwards into Ruri's crotch with small but steady motion. Ruri released a small moan, thrusting her own hips forward at the same pace and letting her fingers drift a little lower on Savanna's front. The light kiss quickly turned into a gentle bite, Ruri's tongue teasing the skin between her teeth. Savanna's rocking hips suddenly found themselves lost and without resistance, her suckling mouth empty. However, she was in a trance.
She turned, pushing forward and crashed her lips against Ruri's in a heavy kiss.
Caught off guard, Ruri violently shoved her away. Whatever energy they had going, it had vanished. Savanna stumbled back as Ruri wiped off her lips. She tried to murder Savanna with her eyes.
"Don't do that," she said harshly. Savanna looked between Ruri and me trying to decipher what had happened. I hurriedly tried to do the same but before I could get a read on Ruri, she had put her seductive face back on. She slithered towards Savanna with a single minded focus. "Don't interrupt me when I'm taming you."
Her hand slid up, palm resting on Savanna's cheek, fingers curving around the brunette's neck, beginning another deep kiss. Breaking from her lips, the shorter woman nuzzled her way to the other's pulse point, latching on and teasing it with her tongue.
"I'm not really into girls," Ruri said, teasing her neck again.
"Then why." Savanna gasped as Ruri's mouth found her nipple. "Did you try to become a tamer?"
"Not for this," she whispered and pulled back. She looked over her shoulder at me seductively, running her hands down Savanna's toned body. Turning on her heels, she walked away from her without a care and turned on the shower as if nothing had happened. She looked over her shoulder, "You two can have fun now."
As the water began to fall, the dark want in Savanna's eyes turned to me. Ready to go, even after Ruri's little mind game, I wrapped her in my arms. She hummed appreciatively. What little part of my mind was not focused on the kiss couldn't help but admire how wonderful she felt in my arms. The feeling was frenzying, and as our lips crashed back in after a breath, I found myself demanding my way into her mouth. Wanting to please, my tongue explored, flicking and rolling against her. I cataloged every motion that warranted a reaction, honing in on the sensitive places. My hand at her neck felt her pulse quicken, bolstering my confidence. My right hand ghosted lower along her neck, pausing to admire her collar bones. But it was only a pause. It drifted downward, settling on a plush breast.
"Don't tame in my house, either." The Doctor's voice reverberated around my head.
I pulled back and my hands immediately stopped Savanna by resting on her hips. She pleaded with me, her face flushed.
"Please. I don't want to stop." She swallowed and closed her eyes. "Please, I can just say goodbye ov-"
That could work. She put her hands over mine and bit her lip glancing up at me seductively. A phantom pain suddenly struck my jaw and I could see the Doctor pulling back.
"No, no, that's a bad idea," I said and pulled my hands away from her.
I ran my hands through my hair and groaned. Were we fucking cursed? I had a beautiful girl in my arms but I couldn't do anything. I cursed that man who had to be somewhere close.
"Wow, getting clam jammed by your Dad," Ruri said from under the shower. She was washing off the last of the soap from her tight body. "That must suck."
Savanna clutched the top of her head and rubbed at her temples. She was just as frustrated as I was. Suddenly she screamed. "I just want to get laid!"
Ruri finally came out from under the shower. Her hair was slicked back over her head and the steam from the shower was rising off of her. She sauntered over to me and intersected herself between us.
"You seem to be in a bit of a predicament," she said to me and rubbed her thigh into my crotch making sure that the fabric of my underwear would rub against my fully attentive member. She unclasped the button of my pants. "How about we fuck?"
I looked down at her seductive smile and dove in. It wasn't fair to Savanna but there was just too much happening for my sympathy to get in the way of my baser drives. I ran my hands down her back, fingers spreading as they passed her slick waist. I finally cupped her firm ass. The motion earned me a groan fueled by a wave of pleasure. I pulled her up and she closed her legs around my waist. Backing her against the other wall and placing my hands against the cool surface on either side of her head, we pulled and pushed, giving and taking in a struggle for more.
The cold air on my back was interrupted by a warm body pressing against it. Savanna whispered in my ear, "Master, why are you forgetting me?"
Suddenly, Ruri didn't feel so all encompassing. Shit, I was kind of forgetting Savanna wasn't I? Ruri thrust forward, grinding it against me. The only thing separating us was a thin layer of cloth. She hummed into the kiss and moved her claws down my back. Before I could respond to Savanna, my back was burning as Ruri clawed me. She broke our kiss as I hissed in pain.
"Alpha privileges. Remember who's in charge," Ruri taunted. "Besides what would your Dad say if you couldn't tell him goodbye?"
Savanna didn't say anything and I was too focused on the pain in my back. She did have a point though.
"Savanna-" I was cut short when Ruri dug her claws in deeper. She planted a kiss on my collar as I grunted in pain. "I will pay you back for this. I just-"
Ruri bit me on the collarbone.
Savanna pulled away and the chill of the room washed over my shoulders again. I barely registered the sound of the showerhead's flow being interrupted.
"Now that the distraction is gone," Ruri said as she reached down and ripped my boxer's open. Without waiting, I plunged deep inside of her and bashed her hips against the wall. She groaned in pleasure and just enough pain that I felt even more excited. Encouraged by the sound, I doubled my efforts. She pressed her nails lower on my back and threatened to stab me again. Unable to do anything but keep pumping inside of her, I felt my muscles begin to tense up expectantly. Leaning her head back, she closed her eyes.
"Sean." The name flowed out, a reverent sigh tumbling from her lips. Her hands dragged up my back encouraging more contact. Stroking and rubbing, our lips desperately locked against each other as she ran her nails down my back. She moaned into my mouth, her mind completely lost to the pleasure and lust pounding through her body. God, those lips felt divine and now she was sucking on my neck. What man wouldn't feel like a god with this beautiful creature underneath him, moaning his name and running her hands down his back, begging for more?
"Sean," she groaned, hands clinging to my neck. She hissed in my ear. "Go faster!"
I acquiesced to her request, grabbing her arms and pinning them down, quickening my hips with a growl, furiously pounding into her all the emotions I was feeling for her. She started to scream, and I couldn't tell whether it was pain or pleasure on her face. I realized that the two really weren't all that different, and that either would satisfy me. Her eyes were rolling in her head, sweat pouring down her body as she whimpered and cried out, her body begging for more and more. I was nearing the edge my own stamina but then a devious thought hit me. I halted. She watched in dismay and her hands fell away. Our eyes met.
"Easy, breathe," I taunted softly, keeping tour gazes locked, and lightly pinning her to the wall.
"Sean, I'm really close," she threatened through her locked her jaw. Her heat still strong, Ruri struggled for words that would convince me to let her have her release. Slowly, her domineering attitude started to fade, her breast were rising and falling with uneven breaths. I stayed completely still only pinning her against the wall when she tried to rock both of us. She swallowed and closed her eyes.
"Say please." It was a soft request, but my voice was thick with sadistic pleasure.
"Oh come on, you bastard!" she yelled.
I didn't reply, only picked up speed again. Her nails dug into my back again as she fought for purchase to keep herself from totally losing it. The sweet pain only spurred me on. Her spine arched and she pushed her hips down and out, impaling herself further onto me, body begging to peak. We were both pouring sweat and my legs were beginning to ache.
"Sean!" The name came again from her lips in a completely feral cry. She clenched around me, clamping down with a force that wracked a wave through me. Another spasm of pleasure pulsated across the younger woman's frame, even more intense as she rose back onto the balls of her feet. My own legs were starting to get weak from holding both of us. I let Ruri down and rubbed at my thighs; that had been quite the work-out.
"Oh, fuck yes. That felt amazing!" she said. She then glanced up at Savanna who was busy washing herself and trying not to stare at either of us. "It's too bad, you can't get a turn."
I couldn't tell if she took more pleasure in the sex or taunting Savanna. Whatever the effect, Savanna kept scrubbing her arms with the wash cloth. She looked even more beautiful with her pink hair glowing in the light of the bathroom. It stretched over her shoulder in waves. I watched a few droplets of water flow down her shapely back and taut butt. She didn't say anything to us. All I felt was the ego trip at having such a beautiful woman incensed that she hadn't gotten her turn with me. Then a dark thought hit me, almost out of the blue.
What if she didn't care who it was? It was too easy. How easy for someone else to have been in that hospital. I shook my head and admonished myself. It was such a fucking chick thing to think.
Ruri stumbled over to the showering beauty. Savanna was interrupted as a warm body pressed against her own. Her muscles went rigid instantly, freezing in place. The light contact was soon joined by that of a mouth at her ear.
"I can help you though," Ruri said huskily. She had to lean heavily on the strongest girl but that just made their bodies fit together even more tightly. "Just don't ruin it again."
Well, Ruri was technically someone else. They bickered about something. I stood up. Wait, had Ruri just used me to establish some dominance over Savanna? Watching the smaller girl push herself on the taller girl, I cursed myself for falling for such a thing when I had managed to outsmart her just minutes before. I could never let my guard down around that girl form that point on. I glanced back at the door and the faint shadow of a foot suddenly backed away. A panic went up my spine. We were running out of time but then I thanked whoever had done it. I could then stop Ruri's little plan.
"No time," I said and walked under the crowded shower head. "Someone just walked in front of the door, I think we should leave now."
They looked over my shoulders as I got wet enough to put soap on. Both Ruri and Savanna looked slightly peeved at being interrupted yet again.
XXX
"You know what annoys me?" Ruri suddenly asked Savanna. The taller girl stopped short of pulling off a pair of jeans. Comparing the two was literally like lemons and oranges. Ruri acted dominating, demanding attention whenever she wanted it and Savanna simply followed her, only occasionally sneaking glances at me. Ruri was tiny in height and build but she was tyrannical even though Savanna looked like she could have crushed her any day of the week. The nurse joy was taller, she was more toned, and she definitely had lifted weights. Probably more than me, but instead she kowtowed to the smaller girl. Ruri was wearing only the grey sweats and a new purple bra that collided with her skin tone. Her pose made sure to emphasize the garment in question. "That your old bra fits me."
Savanna giggled. At least they were getting along.
I was sitting on the lime green bean bag chair, the same as the night before. Only that time, the girls were throwing clothes off the avalanche and then trying them on. Most of that involved stripping and then doing a little dance. It was like hanging out at your girlfriend's and her bringing her friends over to titillate you. I had never had that happen to me before that moment but it felt awesome. But awesome or no, we were still in hostile territory. While they were blithely wasting our time, I was examining the books in her bookshelf and occasionally shooting an angry look at the alarm clock. It read 8:45 and I was tempted to give them until 9 to finally say fuck it and make them leave.
The weird thing was I was definitely more physically attracted to Savanna but there was still something I couldn't put my finger on. Savanna still felt like she was hiding a greater purpose from me. Perhaps I was over thinking things, Hoenn was much different from my world. Perhaps, guys like me did suddenly have beautiful women chasing after them here? That didn't make me feel any better though, I couldn't shake the feeling that it was like the beginning to a gender-flipped Carrie. Like Savanna was somehow playing a trick on me. Though, if this ended with me covered in pig's blood, a lack of pyrokinesis wasn't going to stop me. Ruri was a bitch, no doubt, but I at least had good read on her. Savanna, for all of her submissiveness, still felt like she had ulterior motives.
I looked up to give Savanna a dark look only for her to kill that thought. She was trying to squeeze into a tight shirt that nearly ripped to constrain her chest. Her erect nipples were nearly poking through the fabric. I couldn't help but stare until finally she fondled herself dragging her hand up her body. Her brown eyes were staring at me playfully and then she gave me a wink. What made a woman like her suddenly want to leave home with a complete stranger? A stranger that had a mental condition and lacked a six-pack and chiseled-jaw? Hell, what made her do half the things we did in that shower?
A single tear went down his cheek and more were no doubt going to follow, but his red eyes only made it scarier. I tried not to stare too wide-eyed at him. "You'll stay the night and then leave tomorrow. Don't tame in my house, either."
Taming was such a dirty word, I didn't do that sort of thing. I glanced down at the crummy romance novel I was reading. I was only able to read a small line about 'Shu stripped off his shirt in one clean motion and pushed Alice into the shower roughly' before a moan interrupted my reading. I looked up, desperate not to miss another titillating glance. Ruri was simply standing there but in a mini-dress that looked like, no, was a sports jersey. It was hugging her body and barely covered her crotch. From my lowered seat I could see the bubble of her ass peeking at me. She pulled at the front of it and drew my attention; bowing over, she pulled the shirt lower showing off the curve of her breasts and literally fulfilling several dreams of my youth. With a wink, she licked her finger seductively.
CRACK!
I flinched and nearly threw the book to the ceiling. I whipped my eyes to the door and was caught in a basilisk gaze. Black eyes set against white pupils were glaring through me. I froze, clutching at my crummy romance novel like it was my first porno mag.
"Ok ladies!" Savanna's mother had the bark of a drill sergeant down even better than her husband, tamer, partner, or whatever. "Time to wrap this little fashion show up! Pick out your clothes now!"
Savanna went stock still clutching a piece of black fabric to futilely cover her modesty. Ruri straightened and nearly fell over the clothes avalanche behind her, not even she was immune to this level of fear. Silently, I breathed a sigh of relief, the scary woman had hurried my team along and I hadn't been subjected to the mad woman's stare of death for too long. Black hair twisted and suddenly my wish hadn't been fulfilled. "Jack would like to see you. He's downstairs. Go. Now."
I gave a terse 'yes ma'am,' and quickly fled the room with my already packed belongings in tow. As I left the upper floor, I heard the first explosion of punishment. "What the hell are you thinking? That is not suitable combat attire!"
I was glad I wasn't a part of that. I walked down the stairs appreciating my luck and throwing my bag over my shoulders. I kept my hands balanced as I walked and was fully expectant that The Doctor would ambush me again. The living room was empty so I immediately came off the stairs and went left into the dining room. He was seated at the end of the table in exactly the same spot as he was the night before. Chains was seated to his left and Jackie the Damsel, having put down a plate of sausage in front of him, was humming to herself. The way The Doctor was enjoying the newspaper and the coffee as she put the food down, and basically served him, was just so fifties.
I tried not to laugh at the thought. Hesitantly, I approached and stopped to his right. In fear that he might disapprove, I didn't sit down. God, I was such a fucking pussy.
"Mr. Iscariot." Was his simple greeting.
"Sir." I wasn't trying to be terse. And I wasn't a pussy, I was just being polite and respectful; I was in his house, he was the king here. He could kick my ass.
"Had a little lover's spat last night?" he asked.
"We were working out a few issues, sir," I said from a parade rest I had somehow fallen into.
"I'm not very impressed by your self-control, Mr. Iscariot," he said.
"I handled it to the best of my abilities, sir. It's not an easy thing dealing with a threshold case." I reported, parroting what Savanna had told me last night.
"I wonder why Jasmine said that I should let Savanna go with you?" he asked.
"Jasmine, sir?" I asked.
"A Megami-Sama. She assured me that we should bunk you with your current pokégirl and that Savanna should join you. I hope you don't disappoint." He flipped a page of his paper. What the hell was a Megami-sama? Was she some kind of seer? 'sama' was a Japanese term of respect and Megami sounded vaguely Japanese as well. A pokégirl? It must be powerful to be called 'sama' when Hoenn is apparently pokégirl hell. And if it was powerful, why was she concerned with me? At least that provided a reason for Savanna joining me. I pondered all of this silently until The Doctor spoke up.
"You can sit you know." He wasn't looking at me; he hadn't looked at me the entire time. He had been reading the newspaper and simultaneously hiding his face and body from my view. That it also made him look like a cartoon where the parents are never shown was just an added humorous bonus. He did, however, have a sort of exasperated sarcasm when he said I could sit down though. I lifted the bag I had just put on and then took the seat to his right. He growled from behind his paper. "Did you obey my orders?"
"I didn't have sex with Savanna," I answered firmly and mindful that he might be actually holding a knife behind the newspaper.
"But you did share the same bed with her?" he said, innocently framing it as question.
"Yes," I glanced at the amused expression on Chain's face as she chewed on a piece of bacon. Her eyes were dancing between me and The Doctor with the edges of a smile, like she was watching some kind of sadistic show. Wait. Was he fucking with me or was I about to get brutally beaten while the sadist, and she was a sadist if her chains were anything to go by, looked on?
"And then shared a shower with her and your other pokégirl?" He said.
"Yes," I said in an even more hesitant voice.
"Do you know why I picked you, Mr. Iscariot?" he asked suddenly.
"No, sir. Was it because of my liberal view towards pokégirls? My kindness? Ability?" I asked, listing off several things he might like.
"It's because you scare easily," he deflated my every expectation but it was hard to deny what he said. I conceded the point. Chains didn't even try to hide the fact that she was on the verge of laughing. I tried to glare but the chains didn't exactly cover her. He fluffed the paper. "You're beginning to annoy me, Mr. Iscariot."
"I will try to leave by nine, sir."
"As long as we get our goodbyes, but please start your journey sometime today." He still sounded exasperated even through his monotone and Chains was smiling mischievously between us. I glanced at her with a deflated expression and she mouthed something to me. 'Good Job' and then she winked.
"Move." A voice ordered.
I nearly jumped out of the seat then and there. The glint of a sharpened armor claw was at eye level and dangerously close to blinding me. Hastily pushing myself out of the chair, I slid away as Savanna's mother silently glided into place. Awkwardly, I tried to regain my dignity by falling into a parade rest. She adjusted her seat and completely ignored me as Chains silently laughed from behind her hand. She looked close to choking on her food.
"Are they ready yet?" The Doctor asked, completely not acknowledging I had just been evicted.
"Yeah," The woman said tersely and then turned to the kitchen door. "Jacklyn!"
"Coming Angie!" a dainty call came from behind the kitchen door.
Soon enough, the damsel came back carrying two plates of bacon and eggs. I took a step back as one of the plates was placed in front of Angie. She simply handed me the extra plate and danced back into the kitchen. I held the plate of scrambled eggs and strips of bacon as awkwardly as ever. It was simply too surreal for me to process.
Finally, she craned her neck and glared at me. "Are you going to sit?"
"Um, where should I sit" I asked; she kept glaring. "Ma'am."
A piece of bacon crunched behind the newspaper and she sneered at me. "Take the foot of the table, boy."
I scratched the back of my head and started the walk of shame. I felt absolutely whipped. "Yes, wicked mother in law."
Chains burst into laughter as I trudged. It looked different from the other end but at least there wasn't a towering flower arrangement blocking my view or anything. Angie was glaring at me for my earlier comment and Chains looked to be almost choking as she laughed. I liked her better, if only barely.
"Have they found suitable clothes?" he asked.
"Yes, even the Charamanda. Savanna still has some smaller bras that she can wear and her clothes too. She never threw any of it away," Angie scowled.
"Maybe she was trying to save it for a baby sister?" Chains asked, rubbing her stomach tenderly.
"Stuff it, bondage bitch."
It clicked.
"I've always loved my little girl."
I stopped searching his body language; that I didn't expect. He looked down at his lap and sighed. "Even when the tests confirmed she was a Nurse Joy and not human, I held her for the first time and I felt like more of a father then those men who had human girls."
He was clutching his head in his hands but his voice wasn't wavering, so I'm pretty sure he wasn't crying. "Maybe it was easier for me because I always knew what would happen. But even if Olivia's child is a human girl, I won't write her off when she goes through threshold. I can't have a funeral and forget about a little girl I've raised for seventeen years, just because she isn't human."
And then Angie called her Bondage bitch. And the chains…
"How have you stayed tame?" She asked with a more respectful tone, she was till demanding but it wasn't insulting. Almost like a real sergeant, the thought brought a smile to my face.
Savanna blushed slightly and didn't look at us. "Olivia was my taming partner."
I furrowed my eyebrow. "Who's Olivia?"
"Well, uh, she's a Mistress," she stumbled obviously nervous or embarrassed.
Ruri suddenly laughed. "Wait, wait, wait. Wait. Your Aunt was taming you? That's that's… ew."
Savanna puffed her cheeks out. "What should I've done? Just been tamed by random villagers?" She demanded. "It was the only way I'd keep from going feral!"
Ruri kept laughing. "Did you like it? All those chains tying you up and so you could lick your Aunt's cunt?"
"You're Olivia," I blurted out.
The two women looked at me. Chains – now Olivia - uncertainly answered, "Yes."
Shit. Why did I say that out loud? I covered my eyes and tried to cover my tracks. "Oh, I, I, congratulations on your child."
"Yes, I was Savanna's taming partner," Olivia teased. Heat was rushing to my face. Shit, I needed a twix. I dug into my eggs, fighting the blush down and buying some time. She chuckled menacingly. "Do you wanna know her favorite techniques? You know we weren't able to cover cocksu-"
She was interrupted by a long talon being held at her throat. "Not another word, bondage bitch."
"Oh yeah?" Olivia challenged. "They say a pregnant pokéwoman fights harder, I wouldn't want to hurt you old woman. Again."
A chain suddenly wrapped around Angie's arm. A standoff over breakfast looked poised to begin. I took an extra mouthful of eggs just to be sure I could continue to eat if I had to move. They were really good too with just the right amount of cheese stretched over them and the occasional piece of sausage cut into the mix.
"Enough." Came the resolution from behind the paper.
And like a switch, the two backed off each other and breakfast resumed. Damn. The Doctor was more powerful than I thought. Olivia winked at me and then winced as Angie kicked her under the table. The four of us sat in silence with the exception of when Jackie sat a pitcher of water on the table and poured me a glass while refilling everyone's drink order. It was a very stifling silence until Ruri and Savanna both came down stares toting a pile of clothes each.
Ruri, dressed in a purple dress that was a reasonable length, sat her clothes in the spot on my left immediately. They were a mix of greens and whites with a smaller majority of other colors thrown in. It was an impressive pile. I swallowed a piece of bacon and then swatted Ruri's grab for my last piece. I glared as she smirked and danced her hand away. I gulped down my rescued bacon.
"It's scary that you have that many clothes around that don't even." I trailed off when I noticed Savanna was stuck in the door. She was holding her clothes to her chest and cuddling them like a security blanket. She seemed to have tried and mirrored my own outfit with a white long sleeve shirt and pair of denim shorts. Granted, her shirt was a lot tighter and her shorts shorter. She was looking between the group at the head of the table and me. Angie hadn't even looked back and the paper was still up. Olivia's smile was gone and she was studying Savanna's face intently. Savanna, on her part, was glancing around desperately. Even Ruri stopped and looked at her expectantly as she was torn between where to sit. It was almost like watching a new kid at the cafeteria but a lot more tense.
However, blood was about six times thicker than water.
"Savanna," I started, to the subtle turn of Angie's head. "It's your last day here."
I nodded down at the impossible wall the morning paper formed. She smiled at me, sat her clothes down next to Ruri and took the seat between her and Angie, much to her subtle approval.
"Where's everyone?" She asked.
"They're patrolling the perimeter. They'll be back to see you off," The Doctor answered.
"So have you been getting along?" Savanna asked.
I chewed the last piece of bacon, just to make sure Ruri didn't get it, and swallowed. "Just talking about your clothes collection. Why do you have so much?"
Jackie threw open the kitchen door with magical precision and sat two plates down for Ruri and Savanna. Savanna's was noticeably absent of eggs or bacon and instead had a salad. I watched Jackie return to the kitchen, flabbergasted at her speedy service. Savanna cleared her throat to bring my attention back to the table.
"Well I wanted to save them for a baby sister but a harem sister works too," she finished with a smile.
Olivia took a cocky bite of her eggs and smirked in Angie's general direction.

Ruri and I stood in front of a rather large house. It was two stories and again it looked rather spacious. Doctors got paid a lot in my world and apparently it held true here as well. In the morning light, the deceptive single door and five windows that made up the front wall of the house made it look smaller than what actually stretched out behind it. The entire lawn that we currently stood on was ringed by thick evergreens that isolated this scene from the rest of the world.
She still looked agitated standing beside me while I stood in a loose parade rest. It was habit at this point but I think it portrayed a more mature air then Ruri, who looked like bored teenage girl. Honestly, all she needed was a cell and head phones and she'd be set. Savanna was currently making a round of hugs. The draconic girl had given the first one and they had a little talk and Jackie did the same. They were only ten yards away but it felt like a mile. The way they shared teary goodbyes kept gnawing at my memories. They looked like a long distance divorce situation, the kids get shuffled from one parent to the other and they share a goodbye knowing they won't see each other till the end of summer. Savanna's bun kept bouncing up and down as the more muscled twin nearly lifted her off the ground with a hug. They were a lot louder than the pair that came before and kept yelling at Savanna not to slack off and come back stronger. It honestly sounded like something out of Naruto. I closed my eyes and fought down a smile, they were Guy and Lee.
Olivia gave Savanna a hug. She winked at me and then gave Savanna's ass a rather un-aunt like squeeze. A small book was not so subtly put in the lip of her pants. When she finally let go, Savanna was blushing and gave me a covert glance. How the others were looking between me and Olivia, you'd think I'd have put the woman up to it. Finally, The Doctor and Angie. They were standing together with the black haired pokéwoman leaning into him. Savanna gave both of them a hug and then talked to them for a bit. I felt bad, even as Savanna turned from them and started walking away towards me. She was half smiling, half crying.
I smiled as reassuringly as I could. She stopped in front of me and then turned and waved them all goodbye. "I'll miss you!"
With that finished, I gave The Doctor a mock salute behind Savanna's back and then turned and walked off. She caught up and stopped me before I could leave. Twiddling her hands in front of her she channeled Hinata Hyuga for a moment. She stammered to finish the comparison. "Um, Sean. They, um, they want you to, uh, capture me."
"Huh?" Ruri and I both asked.
"I just, and they asked that you do it; here." She gave me a nervous pleading smile and I looked over the expectant septet. Fine, whatever, I honestly just want to leave at this point and be done with this house so I could fuck to my heart's content.
"Yeah, okay," I agreed.
She kissed my cheek and then stood back. I unclipped a free pokéball and then tossed it at her underhand. She disappeared in a red light and the pokéball swung back and forth three times before finally stopping. I walked over and picked it up like a golfer recovering from the 18th hole. I looked up in time to catch the black blur coming at me.
I hit the deck and Angie flew over me. I tracked her just long enough to get snared by a chain wrapping around my wrist. I tried to use my legs to pull the chain out of the ground to no avail. A blur of the two twins rushed past me. A sharp edge nicked my neck and I stood up a little straighter. Angie was already behind me and suddenly the chains started to snake up my arms until Olivia was trying to pull me to the ground.
I was on my hands and knees as they both towered over me with their respective weapons pointed.
"If you ever hurt her-," Olivia started.
"-Or get her hurt-," Angie continued.
"-We'll kill you." They both finished.
The chains receded and the two walked away. I glanced around to try and find Ruri first and foremost and spotted her being released by the Gai and Lee twins. She jogged over to me and we both watched the septet walk back towards the house. The Doctor was standing on the front porch letting his team walk past him nonchalantly. I caught my breath and massaged my wrist as Angie finally walked through and shot me an over-the-shoulder glare. Lazily, he mockingly saluted and shut the door.
