Akuma's POV

As I hang up the call with Serin, I had been walking for the short time we had been talking which allowed me to find a lake. Thank fucking god. Water. Now all I gotta do is find food. I thought before kneeling down at the lake. I cupped my hands together as tight as I could and dunked them into the water. I pulled my hands up to my mouth as fast as I could and drank the small amount of water I had. I continued this for 30 more seconds till I felt fully hydrated.

I stood up and looked around to see if there was anything I could recognize, that's if I was hopefully in the same region. I wandered around the lake before deciding I definitely wasn't in the same region. It was late August and where I was deployed, it was hot year round. Here, it feels like around 40 degrees. "God damn it's cold for this time of the year. Normally it's in the 70s back at Orre. " I said while shivering. "Wish I hadn't been in the Orre Region for the past 8 months."

I walked towards the west towards where I saw a mountain range, hoping there would be people that lived near it nice enough to let an almost morph stay with them. As I made my way towards the mountains, I heard a hushed chatting voice behind a bush. Thanks to me being 6'4, I was able to look over it to see two Rattatas chatting. "I'm going off. It's getting pretty late." The first Rattata spoke.

"Later man." The other one replied. The first Rattata ran off while the other just laid down to drift off into a slumber. My lucky day. I've always wondered how Rattata tastes. I thought before sneaking away to find a sharp stick. With thirty seconds, I found a broken stick lying at the bottom of a willow tree and picked it up. Making my way back to the Pokemon, I had started making my plans for the night seeing how I had awoken up around my normal dinner time. I had approached the sleeping form of the Rattata, the stick in my mechanical arm/hand, ready to stab down.

"Three... Two... One..." I whispered before jabbing the stick through the Rattata's head, the surprising strength allowed me to hear the stick go through the Pokemon's skull and through it's brain. "Damn. This arm isn't so bad." I joked. I looked back down towards the dead pokemon and lifted my stick to have the it hang off. I walked with the stick in my hand towards a large rock with smaller ones near by. I set the stick and Rattata down and picked up some of the mini rocks before dropping them. I put the rocks in a circle and went scavenging for small sticks or logs. Once I found a few, I went over to my rock circle and set them up to where I could have a decent fire. I picked up a rock and small piece of iron and started to scrape them together. After about 3 minutes of doing this, sparks finally started appearing before the fire finally started.

I walked towards where the Rattata was and picked up the stick it was on before sliding it out of the skull. "Huh. I wonder if any of these limbs have supplies." I grumbled. I yanked my sleeve up and started observing the arm before seeing a little black button. I pressed the button which opened a tiny slot showing me a hunting knife. "I guess I didn't need the stick. Oh well."

I started to skin the dead rat, throwing it's pelt towards the bush I had killed it at. After about five minutes, I had all the fur off and had cut a whole in the stomach allowing me to remove the organs which had caused me to gag slightly. Damn. Farmers must have tough stomachs. Same with butchers. I thought. I Put the meat that was left back on my stick and placed it over the fire, rotating it occasionally to have it perfectly cooked.

After around ten minutes, I had just finished cooking it and pulled it off the fire. Holding the cooked meat in my hand, I went to grab more sticks and threw them into the fire. I sat back down on the grass and grabbed my knife off the ground to cut up the Rattata into separate pieces and set the two halves on my thighs. I touched one of the pieces with my left arm and recoiled instantly. Seeing how even with my gloves on, the meat was still too hot to pick up with my normal arm. Deciding that I didn't want to use my robotic arm for now, I just leaned back a little and stared up into the sky. For the first time, I could see the whole Milky Way Galaxy and started noting all the constellations I had learned about during middle school.

While noting the seventh star constellation, I heard a bush shake and I was instantly alerted. I set my still hot food down on the rock before cautiously walking towards a Rawst Berry bush, my knife in hand. I slowly pushed the shrubbery out of the way and saw a seriously injured Flareon morph. As I looked at her, I noticed the beauty she presented. Even with her being covered in dry and fresh blood, she was stunning. Her hips were perfectly curved, from what I could see, a flat stomach with slight muscles showing, and a pair of D-Cup breast.

I mentally slapped myself for checking her out in this state before picking her up and holding her as if we were a married newly-wed couple. I walked back to my mini campsite and laid her six inches away from the fire to keep and warm and the sparks away from her. I went back to the rock and picked up my now cooled off Rattata and ate a single piece.

With my mind going wild, I had threw more sticks into the fire and went to work on the small amount of medical skills I have on her. I took her DragonForce jacket off and started cutting it in strips to cover up the several wounds. I had covered up the small wound on her neck and the multiple cuts on her arms, some pretty deep with two on her right arm being bone deep. I had found some abandoned Spinarak webs to help the healing process and wrapped them around her arm, following up with the strips of her jacket.

I instantly started blushing when I thought about if she had wounds on her stomach and the fact I had to lift up her shirt. Getting the thoughts out of my head, I lifted up her shirt to see many wounds. Some bite marks, some scratches, all being pretty deep but luckily not bone deep. I lifted her body up to look at her back which only had some burn marks. Not knowing what to do, I decided to put what was left of her jacket around her waist with the top going over her breast. I flipped her body over and gently tied the jacket up, careful not to touch the burn marks.

Once I knew she was patched up, I sat the now cold Rattata meat on a rock that surrounded the fire. I left the area to collect more sticks to keep the fire up till atleast the morning. Once I returned, I saw that the Flareon's troubled face had disappeared and returned to a neutral expression. I smiled knowing I had helped save her life and threw the sticks into the pit. After I saw the fire flare up a bit, I went up to the sleeping/unconscious and whispered "See you in the morning." before walking a yard away and lied down, falling asleep instantly.

Kandi's POV

I awoke to feel my pain dimmed down and huddled into a ball. I looked downwards to see that my stomach and arms had strips of cloth on them. I had just stared at the cloth before realizing that it was my jacket. Questions started wondering through my mind before I saw a fire pit with a dim light showing itself, a side of meat on one of the stones. When I picked it up, I felt it has little warmth in it so I used a light Flamethrower, cooking it instantly. I started chowing down on the meat before sitting back down, a little dizzy from the numbing pain in my stomach. I started to observe the area I was in before seeing somebody wearing all black laying down, their back facing me.

I let my dizziness die down before crawling towards the body. I tapped on its shoulder a few times, attempting to wake the sleeping form up. With no success, I rolled them off their side and onto their back. I closed my eyes and took a breath before reopening them to see what the figure was.

It has a ring on it's forehead and black fur covering it's masculine face. An Umbreon morph? I thought my sister and I were the only Eeveelution morphs. I thought before taking off his hood, freeing his ears, yellow rings around the middle part just like his head.

I just sat there on my knees for a few minutes taking in how he looked from what I could see. His face was absolutely handsome, he seems skinny and his stomach felt rougher than most showing he has some muscle. As I was taking in his looks, I noticed he had started to stir causing me to back up some to give him personal space. He lifted his upper body up with a yawn before looking my way.

Akuma's POV

I looked over to where I laid the Flareon down to see her looking my way, with a curious face. I opened my mouth to speak but she got their before me, asking "Were you the one that cut up my jacket to cover up my wounds?"

I nodded my head and replied "I was about to eat when I heard a bush move. I went to investigate the sound and found you unconscious, covered in blood. My first instincts were to fix you up seeing how injured you were. Also, sorry for cutting up your jacket. You can have mine if you want even though I was told not to take it off."

"First, I'd like to thank you for helping me with my wounds and thanks. It was freezing last night and even with me being a fire type, I'm not the best in the cold." She said before walking closer to me. I took my gloves off and put them in my pockets before taking off my jacket, the Flareon not noticing my right arm. I handed her the jacket which she quickly put on before wrapping me into a quick hug, her hand hitting my mechanical one. I returned the hug and we stood there for a few seconds before pulling apart.

She backed up a few steps before looking towards my arm. "Ummmm... May I ask why you have a robotic arm?" She said tilting her head slightly.

I picked my knife off the ground and pressed the button in my arm to reveal the small area for my knife. I put the knife in the slot before closing it and mumbling "That's a story I don't want to say right now."

"Oh... Sorry if that's a touchy subject. I almost forgot, name's Kandi." She replied shyly.

"Akuma. Also, it's not a touchy subject. It's just why I'm a part morph right now." I said while rolling up my right pants leg revealing the mechanical leg. "Also lost my leg from it too."

Her eyes went back and forth between my arm and leg before asking "What do you mean part morph? You like a full morph to me"

I tilted my head before responding "Really? I was told that after a week of me waking up from unconsciousness, I'd have a week to be more human than Pokemon. I only just woke up yesterday at around six."

"That's odd. How'd you get infected anyways?" She continued asking.

"I won't tell you what happened to me before I was a morph since I don't exactly want people recognizing me even though I'm pretty sure I'm in a different region." I replied. "Anyways, I got a shot of the Virus put into me most likely. It was a part of an agreement I had made for my job at the time."

()()()()()()()()()()()()()()

We had been talking for about an hour now, which had felt nice since I haven't talked to anybody in a month since I'm not counting the phone call.

"I would love to chat more with you Akuma but I must be going. My sister and our friends must be worried sick since I haven't returned to our little complex that we live in." She sadly said. "Wait, you said you woke up from unconsciousness yesterday meaning you don't exactly have a place to stay, right?"

I nodded and said "Last place I remember being in was the Orre Region but I highly doubt we're they're due to the weather here."

"Yeah. Orre is atleast a nineteen hour trip by boat from the edge of this region. Thing is, this place is considered new and doesn't have an official name yet. Anyways, you can come with me, my sister, and our friends though I'll have to convince Trip to build a new dorm for you."

"No need. I can build it on my own. Don't want to be a hassle since I'd love to live with you guys since I'm assuming they're also morphs. I don't exactly want to deal with the racism from normal Pokemon and other humans since I'm now a morph." I said, my smile growing.

"We'll let's get going. We're only about 5 minutes away if we walk. Just have to go straight North." She replied.

I started sprinting towards where she said and yelled back to her "Race you there!"

She stood dumbfounded at first before sprinting behind me. Within three minutes, I was at an area that contained a total of five mini houses. I decided to walk up to a decent sized well and leaned against it waiting for Kandi. Within another 30 seconds, Kandi appeared in my sight so I waved to her with a slight smirk on my face. Once she approached me, she lightly punched my shoulder and said "You could of... huff... warned me... that we... were racing." in between breaths.

"Sorry. Anyways show me around than I'll probably find a spot for my dorm." I said.

Kandi nodded and motioned for me to follow. We stopped in the middle of the five dorms and she pointed to all the houses. "That house is mine, the one to the left is Cerulean's, my sister. She's a Vaporeon. The one in the middle is Trip's, he's an Alakazam. The two houses to the left are Maze's, a Pikachu, and Randy, a Honchkrow. You'll meet them all eventually. Here are the spare keys to my humble abode if you need anything."

I nodded and replied "Thanks. Since you most likely have to talk to Trip, I'll get to building. Should I use the bricks you guys have or am I aloud to make a small, 2 room log cabin. The second room for a bathroom."

"You can make a small cabin and are able to use the bricks for a fireplace if you like. Well, I'll see you soon." She said before jogging towards Trip's house. I waved and went to work on cutting some trees in the way of paths. I managed to cut down five trees and roll them toward the area I was going to build my house on, next to Kandi's. I started cutting the trees up before taking a break, two trees done. While resting, Kandi ran up to me and said "Trip says it's okay if you live here. He just has to meet you tomorrow."

I nodded and replied "I should be able to finish it once I get two more trees down and some metal piping for running water and power."

"Okay. If you ever need help, just ask me. Also, since you helped me with my injuries, you can stay in my dorm tonight. I'll sleep out here." She said.

I shook my head before saying "You can sleep in your dorm. I only did what was right and I need to prove that I can do stuff my own here since I'm new. We should be getting to bed soon anyways. It's already 10:30 at night. Been working for about eleven and a half hours and I need to rest longer than I've been."

"If you say so. But remember. My dorm is free for you to use." She replied before standing up and walking to her dorm, taking once last glance at me before walking in. I sighed and collected stones and sticks to light a fire for the night. Once I had the fire started, I laid down on the grass, watching the stars. My mind focused on only Kandi.
