... Three Months Earlier...

300 AS: November 6th

"They weren't from Edo." She stated, standing up to continue scanning the area, her eyes glowing the familiar psychic blue. The two stood among commotion, debris and scattered remains of the mountain.

Excavation teams, ambulances, police and eager Pokégirls specializing in this type of thing were all abound… ~Sigh~ so much noise.

Corpses carried pass in either a bag or on a Pokégirl's back and the vast wreckage clearing out the longer time ticked by, fumbling both remains around the various Officer Jenny and wannabe experts looking things over and scribbling notes of their own.

He rolled an eye at the reporter that followed this noisy assortment of specialists to said location "You're sure about that." He asked.

"Yes, Traumas' corpses were dealt with in an unusual manner. The bisected member in particular harbored a lingering energy; not of the average Pokégirl nor the very rare. More human in nature, although I'm not entirely sure if it's human magic either."

Spotting the curl in his lip she continued "There is a signature I do recognize. An additional aura having crossed the area… one that only a legendary could be presumed to encompass." She described.

"So you're saying the legendary brought down the mountain?" He asked.

"No, something weaker. The Legendary followed after the devastation. Nonetheless, the energy produced is significant enough to warrant caution."

He nodded in understanding as he turned "Can you identify what energy it is in particular that's been used here?" He asked.

She was slow to respond "With a little more research I may be able to."

"What about the other Trauma corpse? Psychics' analysis reported he had a heart attack."

"My judgements conclude the cause was due to a concentration of intense aura that suppressed and overtook the member's basic functions. The only comparisons familiar are the auras: fear, hate, menace, danger and doom; the like of which Sanctuary are capable of using to their full potential."

There was a further narrow in his features "Sanctuary?"

She glanced before giving a soft shrug "Like I said: the only comparisons. The panic and loss of control; the aura oppressing his entire being resulted in the only logical path for his body to follow under such stress."

A fear and panic induced death. The Alaka-Wham found herself growing more intrigued alongside her master.

"This person can do such a thing then? Rival a Goth's prowess in aura?" He asked.

"There were two of them." She stated.

A strong twitch attacked his brow "… Two of them. Haah- right~ and only one did most of the damage here I'm guessing?" He asked gesturing to the destruction around them… fuck how stressful.

"That's correct. While it may not be plausible, it is to the best of my observations within the two hours we've been here."

So much to process only on his first day "Alright, there were two people. More human than Pokégirl; powerful enough to defeat three or more Trauma Members, their Pokégirls, and bring the whole mountain down on their heads. Exceptional enough to contend with a Sanctuary Goth and attract a Legendary to their trail. ~Sigh~ In addition to any lost or forbidden tech they've recovered." He reviewed.

His Pokégirl nodding in response resulted in his own to simply just blow air from his lips "Well won't this just be exciting."

Turning around he headed back to his harem, his Alaka-Wham following after him "Your sarcasm is not lost on me Dan."

"I didn't expect it to be." He muttered irritably "Underneath the debris of the mountain is one of Sukebe's bases hidden from back during the war. I can imagine what motivated the two parties to start fighting. We do not know what forbidden technology they've gathered here."

Two police officers and an Officer Jenny stood firm and nodded at his passing "Continue with the excavation, if you come across any new information I want to know about it. Gather anything deemed important and I don't think I need to specify for the search to be thorough, bring any forbidden tech, artifacts and files to Central." He ordered.

"Yes detective."

A little way over a doctor and a Nurse Joy over-looked the two Trauma corpses, the psychic Pokégirls having left a little earlier "I want an autopsy performed soon. Send a copy of the report to the address I've provided."

The man gave a lazy wave "Consider it done chief." he chuckled before the Nurse Joy elbowed him.

Continuing on he met up with his other Pokégirls.

"So what are you planning to do in the mean time?" his Supe-Bra Genius, Lexa asked.

"Hm… Check all records within a thirty-year time frame of the Humans who had ever come into contact with Vale academy, any other similar academy and each known educators. Collect documents from Edo Borders: Everyone who left Edo League in the months of October and November. We'll do individual background checks on each one."

"Also look into the documents of Kenzel's arrest, we'll need to go back to central and hear his story." He replied as each nodded with some more lazily and arduously.

The Alaka-Wham raised a brow "You think they are connected?"

"Two Trauma corpses were found here. Documents say this mountain collapsed October 10th and only seven days later Professor Kenzel is tied up with a confession tape in his pocket. Time gap is too suspicious don't you think?"

One of his Pokégirl crossed her arms "And when was this mountain event given to us?" she asked feeling a small headache begin to develop.

"October 23rd." he replied, that meant the police had been investigating this place for almost a week and a half. Funny how on the very day they uncovered enough to show more than just Pokégirl bodies and reveal the structure underneath resulted in all this responsiveness and clamor; enough to have him put on this delightful case.

Another Pokégirl hummed at the work this caused for the detective "And if the humans who did this have Longevity and is still within the border?" She asked, if so he'd need to go farther than a thirty-year time frame.

He didn't reply "Hypna, you said that there was a Legendary's energy and each Legendary's energy is unique in its own right, care to tell me who the lucky Pokégirl was that crossed this path?" He asked.

She merely nodded "I do recognize it, rather how could I not, the only one that causes disturbances on a daily basis." She replied.

He nodded "Tch- should've guessed she'd be interested in something like this." With the use of his Alaka-Wham they teleported away. ~Phwip~

"Are you sure this is the right one?" Naruto asked looking back yet again at the long dirt road they walked so far.

Hinata merely nodded, patient with his various badgering questions "Yes, this is the route most recommended, many tamers take it because it's the safest." Hinata replied calmly.

Seemed like that Hottie had shaken Naruto up more than she thought if he preferred public roads to privacy and secrecy. Whatever resulted in the less likely chance of being attacked or possibly raped by a feral Hinata supposed.

She paused her train of thought for a moment, feeling something wrong in her priorities for a moment before shrugging it off in the next.

Naruto looked around again "We've been walking for hours and we've yet to see one Tamer."

"They're probably all sleeping." Tashira suggested.

"It's in the middle of the day." Naruto replied.

"So?"

*Crack!*

Yue turned to the sound, spotting a falling tree in the distance followed by a small rumble from the crash.

"What was that?"

"A Pokégirl." Tashira shrugged off "We don't have time to waste by being concerned with every little sound we hear."

"Didn't feel little." Kiya shrugged her opinion, seeing Tashira's lips moving and mumbles in the back of her hearing, she surmised what she believed Tashira to be saying.

"And we don't actually have a schedule either, so what do you mean waste time?" Hinata asked as she turned her head back.

"We're fine." Tashira argued.

*BOom!*

Yue's eyes glanced back to the sound "Shouldn't we-"

"We're fine." Tashira growled.

Suddenly a light emitted from the area before trees began to fall, mainly tree's in a line heading right at them. A blur broke out of the crowd of forestry to crash into Kiya that sent both to the ground.

Hinata paid it no mind; instead she turned to where the object came from. With a brief show of veins near her eyes, her features turned into confusion as she tilted her head.

"Looks like a fight." She muttered.

"Between who?" Naruto asked turning to the small cloud of dust.

*Cough-cough* "Ow..." Kiya moaned, hadn't enough torture been bestowed upon her? It was bad enough that she couldn't fully hear.

Then she felt the vibrations from the creature that lay on her. Immediately the thing Kiya believed to be a Pokégirl picked herself up and jumped away from the area. The female itself was snarling, her eyes flaring. The group turned to the Pokégirl with Naruto pulling out his pokedex curiously while having the chance.

UMBREA, the Dark Eva Pokégirl
Lvl
: 15
Type: Animorph(fox-squirrel)
Element: Dark
Frequency: Rare
Diet: semi-vegetarian
Role: fighter/scout
Libido: Monthly
Strong Vs: Dark, Ghost, Psychic
Weak Vs: Bug, Fighting
Attacks: Tackle, Reflect, Dark Attack, Agility, Bite, Memory of the Dark, Dark Bomb, Ankoku
Enhancements: Enhanced Strength (x2), Enhanced Speed (x8), Elemental Affinity: Dark, night vision, psychic shields, Tool Use
Evolves: None
Evolved From: Eva (normal; triggered during the night or Moon Shard)

Umbrea is evolved when Eva has not been artificially evolved through a stone and it reaches an evolution threshold at night. If this occurs during the day, the Eva evolves to Espea. Umbrea is immune to psychic attacks. They do have another ability, Moonlight, but due to the late-night Tamer activities this is not often used. This ability gives the Umbrea an aura of fear that can't be overcome unless the victim is of a substantially higher level.

Umbreas have an affinity for the night, it is said that the rays from the moon are absorbed into her when evolving giving her 'mystic powers'. It has been proven that while an evolving Eva will absorb the moon's rays it has been shown that the only power it gives one is an ability to make the colored rings and designs on her body glow.

When an Umbrea evolves their hips tend to become a bit more pronounced while their bust will remain similar to their Eva state. Much like her Psychic cousin the Espea she has a fine coat of fur. Though it hasn't been known to be so fine it can predict and opponent's movements. Umbreas will have black fur and hair. Though some tamers and Umbreas may argue that their fur is a dark charcoal color, for all intent and-purposes it's a black. The rings/designs on an Umbrea are actually on their skin, and it's not know why it shows through on the fur (though it is said it has something to do with their absorption of Lunar Rays in evolution) When the fur is removed it will be just as black as the rest of her fur.

The Dark affinity of the Umbrea made her the perfect night patrol/scout during the war. Her attacks allow her to be very well suited in a back-up position. Using Reflect to allow an ally to regain her bearings, or using dark bomb to scatter enemies for a regrouping. Her immunity to psychic attacks along with her speed allows her to cover a fighting type in battle.

Naruto's eyebrows creased, 'What's an Umbrea doing all the way out here?' He wondered. From the way she was positioned, she wasn't concentrated on any of them at all; instead she was facing the forest, as if preparing herself.

"Reyna! Use Takedown now before she can recover!" A Male voice suddenly yelled out through the confusion.

A blur burst forth from the tree's heading straight at the Umbrea.

"Ruby dodge it!" A female yelled.

Immediately obeying, the Umbrea fled to the left, narrowly dodging the Hound's advances, then she jumped back to gather her bearings while the Hound was trying to redirect herself.

Naruto pulled Kiya to her feet, still looking at the proceeding battle in mild confusion, looking back to the forest a male with the looks of a seventeen year old ran out, a woman looking twenty-three following after him as they followed their assumed Pokégirls.

"A Pokébattle?" Yue questioned.

Tashira crossed her arms "And in the middle of the path too." She added.

Kiya dusted herself off, turning to look at Naruto she blanched. He didn't have an expression she expected, like shocked or surprised, instead bloomed in joy and excitement.

"Hey Hinata! Let's go check it out!" Naruto said suddenly, not even waiting for their reply, he rushed off.

All the time that they were here, he had never seen a Pokébattle before, hell he didn't even know that many of the rules. Only the basics just to get him started, but anyway now was as good a time as any to see how a Pokébattle was actually played.

On their left was the crowd of tree's, but on the right was a steep hill that went to a large slushy ice meadow for about three Wreck-ball fields side by side.

The Umbrea skidded down the hill and rolled over onto the flat but slushy field, the blurred Pokégirl still chasing after her. The two supposed tamers followed the Pokégirls down the hill as well.

Aiming his pokedex at the blur trying to rush at the Umbrea, he scanned her.

HOUND, the Hunting Dog Pokégirl
Lvl
: 17
Type: Animorph (canine)

Role: guard dog, faithful companion
Libido: Average (High monthly)
Strong Vs: Dark, Ghost, Psychic, cat Pokégirls

Hounds were among the first type of Pokégirls Sukebe created. They are a tough, sleek breed of Pokégirl, the shortest adult Hound being measured at 6'5" tall. They possess a strong, muscular build, C-cup breasts, and smooth, black fur, with a long stripe of dark brown going from their groin to the bottom of their jaw. Their faces are possessed of dark eyes and canine features, with sharp teeth and a larger than normal nose being their most prominent features. Their tails are medium-sized and very whip like (although younger Hounds sometimes have their ears and tails trimmed into shortness), and their nails are very strong, giving them an appearance similar to the pre-Sukebe dog known as the Doberman.

Hounds are very territorial, and are not good teammates for the average wandering Tamer, as they prefer to stay in one place at all times. However they make excellent guard dogs, as they defend their territories fiercely against intruders or anyone they may think may harm someone they care about or assigned to protect. They are among the most loyal, loving breeds of Pokégirl in existence, although they aren't overly affectionate and amorous like Growlies. They are an intelligent breed, even Ferals showing an ability to learn quickly, although their intelligence is more focused towards practical matters rather than the scientific, meaning that Pokégirls such as the Supe-Bra-Genius and the Alaka-Wham still rank far higher in all-around intelligence. They also have very strong senses of smell, which makes them extraordinarily vulnerable to scent-based attacks, but also allows them to appreciate delicious food when presented with it. As an odd quirk, several Hounds have been observed to have an extreme fondness for pizza topped with extra hot peppers.

During the Revenge War, they frequently were used as hunters for food and supplies that the various Pokégirl armies needed, or as bodyguards for the leaders of various attack squads. However they were also among the first breeds turned to the side of the humans once they realized how to get Pokégirls on their side. They have since become one of the more popular and well-liked Domestic breeds, alongside Kittens, Bunnygirls, Growlies and the like, especially after one particular incident became public knowledge.

A squadron Limbec Pirates invaded a house of a prominent family, killed the men and taking the Pokégirls they had prisoner. One of them, a Hound, was able to withstand the emotional shock of watching her Tamer brutally murdered in front of her and resisted the chemical, psychic, and physical torture the Limbecs inflicted on her in an attempt to get her to join them and turn against her family.

The Hound stayed loyal to her Master's memory and even spat in her torturer's face. The Hound was killed, and the Limbec Pirates involved in the crime were arrested, the recorded evidence of the Hound's torture being made public. While horrific, it has been used (in a heavily edited version) frequently in educational settings as an example of the loyalty some breeds of Pokégirl can show, however some feel that this endurance and refusal to be turned under any circumstances makes them loyal to a fault. Since then, even criminal groups such as Team Rocket and all its variants know better than to try and turn a Hound against its masters or even steal them.

Hounds are among the more common forms for a girl to Threshold into.

"What's it say Naruto-sama?" Yue asked as she walked up next to the blond Tamer.

Naruto glanced back to Yue before he answered "From the 'dex, the Hound's stronger by four levels. So my bet would be on her I guess." shrugging at the end of his answer, he pocketed his pokedex.

"I thought you'd be smart enough not to underestimate someone just because their opponent is stronger." Tashira broke in, walking up next to Naruto on his other side, arms crossed as she gave Naruto a look.

Naruto blinked as he looked over to the Dracass, then scratched his head with a grin "Well yeah, but it's obvious that the Hound's got the upper hand."

"What do you mean?" Yue asked.

Naruto pointed his thumb back at the downed path of tree's behind him "The Umbrea's injured," Naruto then pointed down at the Pokégirl dodging the Hound's advances "She injured her right leg, if you follow her movements closely you can see her favoring her left side." Naruto finished.

Yue looked back to the battle, and true to Naruto's words she could see that the Umbrea was leaning to her left more.

"Naruto-kun, an early injury doesn't decide the outcome; she still has her Tamer to help her decide what to do. I even remember a certain someone saying that a Pokégirl's Tamer is as much into the fight as the Pokegirl herself is." Hinata nudged herself between Tashira and Naruto, giving Yue a small smile.

Naruto blanched, then blushed "Oh yeah, I did say that huh?" He asked, scratching his whisker as he did.

Coughing into his hand Naruto looked over to Tashira, despite feeling Kiya's feet landing on his shoulders and her forearms resting on his head "Er- hey Tashira?" He muttered eyes wide and his bottom lip out "Care to please explain what's going on?" he asked.

She grunted with a small smirk before she shrugged carelessly "Who knows, whether it's a battle for salvage, or for the hell of it, we won't know unless we see what they do after the battle's over, which won't end until one of them admits defeat or can't go on." She replied.

"What about death?" He asked.

"Against battle rules, a Tamer could press charges against you, you'd probably have to deal with a few fines as well... or you could have your Pokégirl taken away from you and your Tamer license revoked. The only time you're really supposed to kill a Pokégirl is if she's feral and is a threat to you or another." Tashira replied.

"Jeez, quite a heavy punishment. Then again I'd be pissed if someone killed Kiya in a Pokébattle." Naruto thought to himself, Hinata shook her head.

"It all depends on the circumstances." Yue said.

Naruto slowly nodded his head, ignoring Kiya's tail brushing beside his face.

"Ne Tashira-chan what do these guys get out of a Pokébattle?" Hinata asked curiously. The female tamer down there, she seemed pretty confident for one that appeared to be losing, but she also seemed excited, almost resembling the glint in Naruto's eye when a challenge presented itself.

Just from watching the battle for two minutes Hinata could tell that these Tamer's had at least some experience, seeing as how they mainly had their chosen Pokégirl's performing Taijutsu based attacks, or Taijutsu itself.

The Tamer's weren't just flinging their Pokégirls techniques back and forth like a beginner would, instead they were waiting for the right moment to strike.

That Hound was a brawler.

The Umbrea was more of a tactical fighter Hinata surmised.

Tashira shrugged her shoulders "Depends on what the Tamers want, whether it's just a good battle, to attain one of the other tamer's Pokégirl, for money, an evolution stone or any other kind of monetary rewards. If you're battling a gym leader though it's usually a badge, a rare Pokégirl, or an rare evolution stone." She explained.

The Hound threw herself at the Umbrea, throwing punches, claws, and even trying to catch the Umbrea off with using a head-butt. The Umbrea would retaliate by looking around the terrain and seeing how she could use it to her advantage.

The Hound running at her while the Umbrea retreated, taking timed steps her eyes were scanning the ground, then just as the Hound came within two feet of her the Umbrea lunged forward, putting her left leg behind the Hounds, whilst grabbing the Hound's extended arm she sent the Hound tumbling to the ground.

Tashira continued "Of course there are boundaries to what a Tamer can decide to get, and they both have to agree to the terms before battling. An obvious example is that a Tamer can't challenge another tamer for their house." Tashira finished.

"What if you want a kidney to donate to a sick person?" Naruto asked with a grin.

Tashira frowned as she gave a small glare at the blond.

"What? Just want to know where the line is. So are there any limitations?" Naruto continued with a smile, Tashira 'humphed'.

As expected the Hound tried to use her claws of her hands and feet to come to a stop, that is until her leg fell two feet into the slushy ice, a small hole was there covered by the slush of the ice setting her off balance and again sent tumbling.

Hinata gave the Umbrea credit for managing to locate something like that, luring her in and knowing how the Hound would react. She couldn't hear the male tamer from here but she knew he was surprised if the widened eyes were any indication.

"It depends on what you agree to, you could battle one on one, have a tag-team battle, and have an all-out Harem vs. Harem battle or even a "Grand Melee" battle where even the Tamer is allowed to fight." Yue listed off with her fingers.

Naruto rubbed his chin before nodding "I think the last one's the one that I'd most likely choose, but that's just me." Naruto shrugged.

"The Harem battle." Hinata muttered her preference "So... the only thing you can challenge another Tamer to is a Pokébattle?" Hinata asked Tashira.

"There are different types of challenges; a Pokébattle is just one of many. You could challenge a Tamer to obstacle courses, races, flying challenges, even cooking challenges, whatever you can come up with to compete with another Tamer anyway, so you could probably use one of those to win an easy Pokégirl or evolution stone. Challenges go as far as your creativity I suppose." Tashira replied.

Hinata pondered on the thought of it, and then she raised a finger up above her head "Guess I should prep you girls up for sex battles!" She chirped.

Tashira smirked, as Yue's face heated up.

"Maybe some of that tag-team action." She mused.

Naruto began coughing causing Kiya to glance down at Naruto in confusion.

Now that an opening had been presented, the female Tamer immediately ordered "Now Ruby use Dark Bomb!" Immediately the Umbrea pushed forth her hands, and just like her Tamer ordered, a ball of blackness was created out of thin air. With no time to waste the Umbrea threw it at the Pokégirl.

Right there Naruto, and Hinata believed that the battle would end with the one attack, it seemed like Tashira and Hinata were right about not underestimating someone who was weaker than their opponent, even while their injured.

"Reyna use Howl at full!" The male yelled. The Hound opened its mouth, releasing a loud howl, so loud that it produced a small sound wave, slightly slowing down the Dark bomb slowly becoming slower and slower.

"Wha!" Naruto awed, the Hound continued to howl as it hurried to its feet, and The Dark Bomb exploded four feet near the Hound throwing up slush, grass, and mud.

Hinata raised her brows, from what she knew Howl was mainly used to stun, frighten or confuse their opponent; she'd never thought that if a Pokégirl used it with as much energy they could muster they could turn the technique into a miniature sound wave.

It was impressive, but it also used too much energy for little effect compared to an actual sound wave, not really worth her time teaching Tashira that, besides she had her Roar, but the execution was impressive nonetheless seeing as how if it wasn't for the combined thinking and actions of Tamer and Pokegirl they would of lost the battle right there.

Hinata turned to the Umbrea; she'd guess that took more energy than she would have liked judging by her hard breathing. Although it was worth it, the Hound was snarling and grunting as her left arm was bleeding, clothing ripped away.

"Now Reyna, before she can recover, use Tackle then follow up with Pummel!" The Tamer yelled.

"Ruby dodge it!" The woman yelled.

The Hound was slow to start off but she rushed the Umbrea at once, now either the Umbrea didn't hear her Tamer or she was taking longer to recover than expected, perhaps even dodging was too much effort right now, so without resisting the Umbrea was hit head on, the Hound tackling the exhausted Pokégirl to the ground, she quickly straddled the girl. Raising her fists she had a fierce look in her eye before she launched a flurry of unmerciful punches across the Umbrea's face.

Never relenting no matter how tired she was she seemed pretty determined to win and please her Tamer, not to mention that, depending on the Tamer's terms, she herself may very well be at stake.

Kiya re-adjusted herself, taking her feet off Naruto's shoulder she lowered herself, sliding her feet down Naruto's arms she rested her posterior on her Tamer's shoulder's, wrapping her arms under Naruto's chin she steadied herself, making herself comfortable.

Not hearing Naruto complain made it all the more better, and lessened the guilt of burdening her Tamer, not that she was that heavy to begin with, or at least she hoped not. Grinning, she wagged her tail, coming around and over Naruto's shoulder as it swiped back and forth across Naruto's chest. Kiya's eyes looked down at the two Pokégirls going at it for the sake of whatever they were fighting for.

She wondered why Naruto seemed so accepting right now, normally he would of tickled her thigh, nibble on her tail to get her off, not that it would work anyway, but still Naruto wasn't trying like he usually did.

"Kinda makes you wonder," Naruto whispered as he watched the battle, catching the attention of Hinata and the Pokégirls around him other than Kiya.

Yue tilted her head, her ears twitching once or twice when she did "What do you mean Naruto-sama?"

He had a weird look in his eyes, almost like he was saddened "While the Tamers just stand there grinning at cheering, gambling something so they can get some prize," He started.

Tashira raised a brow, wondering where he was going with this.

The Umbrea twisted the Hound and threw the Hound off to the side of her before she lunged at the canine with her fist pulled back.

"The Pokégirls... they attack each other, and hurt each other just cause their Tamer's tell them to. I don't know, it kind of makes the world seem a little barbaric ya know?" Naruto asked.

Catching the black-furred female's punch, she used Bite like commanded, snapping her teeth inches from the Umbrea's snout stunning the girl and using that advantage at the fullest she used that time to head-butt her sending the Umbrea to the ground.

Falling back to gather herself the Hound watched as the Umbrea slowly got up.

"How can Tamers stand by and watch their Pokégirls hurt each other?" Naruto asked over-looking the battle? Pitting their harems against another to better the Tamer, was that all ok?

Naruto, heck everyone in Konoha fought for a reason, a good one too. Protecting the people of Konoha, maybe even all of the land of Fire, protecting the innocent and the helpless, he constantly trained so that he may protect all the ones that he loved.

Hinata crossed her arms in thought; she understood where Naruto was coming from. She would have answered his question, if she knew.

Tashira rolled her eyes "Don't look too much into it Naruto." She spoke up, breaking Naruto and Hinata out of their misunderstanding about their species.

Tashira un-crossed her arms "Every Pokegirl loves a challenge no matter what they were created for. Pokegirls like a NurseJoy, were created to have an interest in the work of medicine, wanting to be the best they can be at it, so they constantly challenge themselves by studying, and helping heal those who need it. Others were created to love technology, constantly tinkering and challenging themselves to master some type of technological equipment. Another are those that are created for sex." Tashira explained.

She looked directly at Hinata and Naruto "Pokegirls like me, Yue, Kiya and those two down there; Pokégirls like us were created to fight, and we love everything about it despite the pain that comes with it, every fighting Pokégirl has a drive in them that wants to pit themselves against another, to see how strong they are."

The Hound smirked, the Umbrea herself wiping blood off her snout before rushing forward again with even more vigor, pushing herself even if she was tired. The Hound wasn't intimidated by the feat, neither of them were willing to let the other gain the upper hand, they had to do all that they could to win, both to satisfy themselves and their Tamers.

"The moment you take the challenge and excitement away. The thing that they love the most, what's left? What are they to do with themselves? Pokegirls will be empty, and unhappy. No matter how you feel or what you wish it were, some Pokégirls were created to fight, and we are perfectly content with that. Instead of feeling sorry, encourage them because even if you disprove, we'll still keep fighting."

Naruto's brows lifted, turning to Yue, she gave a very feline-like smile "It's like orgasms through adrenaline and pain." She added her two cents. Naruto looked up at his alpha up on his shoulders, a grinning Kitsune's face above him as she watched the fight ensue.

Hinata slowly nodded her head in understanding "I see."

Always wishing for a challenge.

Tashira smirked to herself "Although, the thing that comes first to any Pokégirls interest or love is of course having a good fuck." She mused.

"T-Tashira-chan!" Hinata scolded.

"Well it's true." Tashira shrugged.

"Nya." Yue agreed.

"Ruby use Ankoku!"

"Huh?" Hinata whispered, her eyes looking back to the fight in confusion. The Umbrea having the Hound pinned to the ground, her eyes suddenly began to glow blue, and soon a blue aura was surrounding her.

"Wha-What's she doing?" Naruto asked, Hinata pulling out her black dex, she flipped it open and directed it at the Pokégirl performing the technique.

She read the data description.

Ankoku - (ATK) The user sacrifices 1/4th of their HP to deal non-elemental damage to all opponents within fifteen feet. The damage is generally two to four times the HP expended.

Suddenly the Hound stopped struggling, her head lolling back in sudden exhaustion, now unable to continue. The Umbrea was soon to follow after expending so much of her energy, landing on top of the Hound both of them laid their panting, clothing torn showing even their most sensitive of flesh.

The Umbrea was the last one standing so to speak, so it was obvious who won, even Tamer's had some type of honor to live by, even they could admit when they are beaten. Well, except for the people who don't know what it means to be a tamer.

"The Battle's over." Tashira muttered.

Naruto blanched for the second time, not expecting the outcome "The Umbrea still won, even after taking so much damage from that Hound." Naruto relayed.

Picking up the sound of clapping Naruto glanced up at Kiya, before he too decided to applaud, Hinata following after him, effectively the three gained the two Tamer's attention after they had recalled their Pokégirls to their pokeball.

Kiya jumped off her Tamer's shoulder's landing right beside him, both Naruto and her slid down the side of the hill, grinning as they did when coming to the flat land "You guys are good I have to admit." Naruto said.

The guy merely blinked watching as two Tamer's seemingly came out of nowhere, he scratched the back of his head "Uh, thanks I guess?"

The woman raised her brows "Where did you guys come from?"

Naruto scratched the back of her head "Your Pokégirl sorta landed on mine during your battle." Naruto explained with a small smile.

Kiya looked away from Naruto, waiting to see what the two Tamers would say.

The woman appeared embarrassed "Oh, I'm very sorry about that." She apologized to the Kitsune.

Opening her mouth to reply, Naruto cut her off "Her hearing was temporarily deafened by an accident we had." He explained, Kiya nudged him, pouting.

"That doesn't mean I can't read lip Naruto."

Naruto chuckled nervously "Oh yeah heh heh."

"If you don't mind me asking, what were the conditions of your Pokébattle?" Tashira interrupted curiously, cutting off the need for useless greet talk.

The woman suddenly came into remembrance before turning to the 17 year old tamer "Oh yeah! Hey where's my stone!" She asked a little too quickly.

The male teen grimaced before reaching into his back pocket "Ah a deals a deal." He muttered, more to himself than anything else "Here catch." He warned before tossing something at her, from what Hinata could see it was a Dream stone.

Snatching the stone out of the air she held it up to the sun as she began to explain "I and Johnny-boy over there agreed that if I won I would get this lovely beauty, if he won he'd get Ruby." She explained before she pocketed the stone.

"A ruby?" Naruto asked.

"Wha- Oh no, Ruby's my Pokégirl, the Umbrea you just saw." She replied, Naruto replying with an "Oh."

The defeated teen sighed, so in the process of looking for a lighter subject he turned to the two other Tamers.

"Anyway my names John, and you?" He gestured to the blond.

"Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki." He replied with a grin.

"Hinata Hyuuga." Hinata replied with a smile and a wave.

"Always nice to get acquainted, names Fay, nice ta meet 'cha." The girl grinned as she shook Hinata and Naruto's hands with both of her's "Since you already know my Pokégirl Ruby, and you've seen his hound Reyna, mind telling us your bunch?" Fay asked.

Hinata nodded before turning to her two Pokégirls "This is my Alpha, a Dracass; her names Tashira. And this here's Yue, my Cheshire." She introduced, Tashira nodded and Yue waved.

"And this mischievous Kitsune is my alpha Kiya." Naruto said next.

"Hiya." Kiya gushed; her tail began to wave back and forth even faster.

Fay put her hands on her hips "So, you guys headed somewhere?" She asked.

"We were taking the path and hopefully find some camping grounds where we could rest." Naruto replied off-handedly.

She waved her hand "No problem, there's a camping ground about two miles farther, have my stuff set up there. I was out here looking for some feral ones when I met Johnny-boy over here, decided to challenge him to a Pokébattle for salvage. Mind if we walk with ya?" She asked.

Hinata shrugged "We don't mind." She replied, saying 'we' because she knew that everyone would agree anyway.

"I would have won if I wasn't feeling a little sick from this cold." John whispered to Naruto.

"Of course." He replied with a nod.

John opted not to follow as he couldn't, saying he had to meet his other Pokégirls by a river bank before he walked off into the woods, so with no other interruptions, Fay lead the way with everyone else following her.


"Waha Amazing!" Naruto and Hinata awed, a small picket sign was stuck in the grass reading 'Resting Grounds'.

There was a large cabin next to it, an Officer Jenny and a Nurse Joy were the over lookers of the place with their Tamer and law enforcer.

All over the area were Tamers and Pokégirls litteusing the grounds, eating, playing or swimming in the pond. Some Tamers were battling each other on the other side of the pond so as not to disturb the rest of the occupants. As activity bustled Fay turned back to the group with a grin, pointing a finger in a more tree planted area.

"My stuff's set up over there, come I'll show ya!"

Naruto, Hinata and the Pokégirls nodded.

"Alrighty then, this here's the resting grounds. I'm planning on leaving in the morning, but it'd be awesome if you guys bunked beside us!" Fay optioned.

Hinata smiled "Sounds good."

Naruto scratched his head "Uh Fay? Just throwing it out there, what if all of a Tamer's food was destroyed in a fire and explosion related accident, where exactly would someone be able to find food around here? Ya know, other than just fruits and vegetables in the wild?" Naruto questioned curiously, he was really starting to get hungry right about now.

"Eh? That's a weird scenario." Fay replied off-handedly.

Kiya eyes widened, from what she could pick up, Naruto's lips made out the word food!

"Here he goes." Tashira muttered.

"Tashira-chan that isn't nice." Hinata lightly scolded.

"He's a bottomless pit Hinata." Tashira replied not showing any mercy.

Fay paused her step, pushing a finger into her chin in thought "Over there by the cabin there's a Tamer I talked to this morning, his Pokégirl served me and Ruby heaven within her food. His names Ben, he has an Iron chef, although he isn't passing out any freebies or anything so it'll cost some of your hard earnings ya know? But damn you won't be disappointed." She finished patting her stomach, remembering the meal she had this morning well.

Kiya looked and tried to make out every word that the blond haired woman was saying, and if she could give her lip reading any credit, she could make out the word 'food' and so with that thought the Kitsune's mouth was starting to water.

Naruto's eyes widened, mouth nearly full of saliva, eyes nearly in tears as he remembered something "But all my money's in my bank account!" He whined.

She waved it off "No prob, the cop at the cabin, you can make your withdrawal there just make sure you have your pokedex or else you're out of luck." She replied calmly.

Naruto clapped his hands together and bowed his head "Thank you Fay so much! I'll meet you guys there okay, bring ya back something!" He yelled before he took off back to the cabin leaving behind only his after image for a few short seconds.

Kiya's head snapped into the direction he disappeared to, putting a hand on her stomach she swallowed her saliva at the thought of food, now that she thought about it, she could really eat something right now.

Fay stared at the spot where the blond use to be, then turned to Hinata "Quite a bouncy kid isn't he?" She asked.

Hinata smiled "He's a whirlwind of chaos." She replied.

~Groan~

"I just hope he brings me back some ramen, maybe some chicken." Kiya whimpered as she lowered her ears, her stomach moaning in agony, Yue and Hinata patting her back in understanding.

Kiya's stomach growled again, and she just couldn't take it so in that train of thought the Kitsune ceased walking. Eyes widening she turned up her snout and sniffed the air, the smell of Bacon reached her senses.

Bacon...

Yue turned back around realizing Naruto's alpha stopped walking, she blinked, flicking her tail her ears twitched "Kiya-dono are you alright?"

Kiya took her eyes away from the Cheshire and turned around, heading in the direction Naruto went "Mmnn I'm hungry!" She whined.

"Ara? Kiya-chan where you going?" Hinata asked, turning back to the suffering Kitsune.

Kiya didn't show any sign of stopping or replying. Hinata sweatdropped, 'Oh yeah, she can only read lip.' she thought, so far Kiya had replied to anything she said when she was talking to her, but she forgot that throughout that Kiya was reading her lips since she couldn't hear her.

Kiya continued to walk "... Something to eat." She replied in a faraway voice.

"Naruto just said he'd bring back something." Tashira vented to herself, with her arms crossed she tapped her forefinger on her bicep.

Suddenly Kiya stopped, her nose twitching as she picked up a new scent "STEAK!" Dropping to all fours, she was gone in the next moment, leaving behind a similar after image Naruto had. Tamers and Pokegirls heads all turned to the shout in surprise, curiosity and confusion, all of them watching as the Kitsune blurred past them as she hurried to where there was food.

Tashira palmed her face.

Hinata blanched at the eagerness, scratching her cheek Hinata mused to herself "Gosh, I guess Kiya-chan was really hungry."

Fay couldn't help but drop her jaw 'I've never seen a Kitsune move that fast before, at least, not with the amount of time these people have been Tamers. I thought they had to be over level 25 to reach that speed?' She thought, and yet from what Hinata and Naruto had told her, they had been Tamers for at least five months, while it was possible to get your Pokégirl's level well over 30, their training and experience was a different story, and right now that Kitsune had the speed of at least a level 27.

When she scanned her she saw that Kiya was only a level-

"She's always hungry." Tashira said.

"With good reason, Naruto-kun and Hinata-kun wear us out almost every day." Yue added.

'That's not the only funny thing I noticed of these girls. I haven't seen the Tamer's put them in their pokeballs in all the time I was talking to them, do they really just let their Pokégirls do what they want?' Realizing her mouth was hanging, she closed it with a click of her teeth.

And for just a moment, she stared at all that they let off.

'What strange people. But, who am I to judge their preferences?' Fay slowly smiled looking at the remaining girls "Um... -Well anyway, let's meet my cache of girls shall we?" She asked, showing them the way to her camping place.

"You only took Ruby with you?" Hinata asked.

Fay nodded "The rest were asleep, they looked exhausted and how could I be such a selfish Tamer to have just woken them. Ruby's usually the earliest to rise even before I do, she agreed to go Pokégirl hunting with, and well, the other just had to watch over our stuff." Fay replied.

"If only we were like that." Tashira muttered wishfully with a smile, an imaginary tear falling down her cheek.

"Hm, if only." Hinata taunted with a smile, breaking Tashira's hopes.

Walking up to her camp site, Hinata could see Fay's Pokégirls lazing about, mostly the green skinned female with large D-cup breast with a odd plant bulb on her back laying out in the open on the ground in the sun, her eyes closed and the calm feeling coming off her almost made it look like she was asleep, but that didn't seem to be the case cause as soon as a red-furred feline Pokégirl called out to Fay in joy, the Ivywhore sat up. An avian Pokégirl descended from the tree's above, landing a few feet from Fay, the feline running up next to her, and the grass colored Pokégirl making her way over.

If Hinata could rely on her pokedex with reading Pokégirls and power levels, then Fay had a very talented Ivywhore, Firecat, and Harpy. And from what she could gather appearance-wise, it seemed Fay was also an experienced Tamer, perhaps even a somewhat strict one with rules.

The Harpy before her was very well taken care of, her hair shined with health and her feathers looked as good as could be, from the pokedex Harpy's never liked bath's or caring about their appearance, but this one was positively stunning for a Harpy. The Firecat's behavior showed she loved Fay and her red fur was washed and brushed.

The Firecat glomped the blond haired Tamer and nuzzled her head in between Fay's breasts "Nila missed Fay." She purred as her tail wagged back and forth, Fay scratching behind the Firecat's ear.

"Missed you too hon, so how's my little kitty?" She asked.

"Horny, Nila waiting for you all day." She replied.

"Oh it hasn't been that long, sorry Nila taming's going to have to wait." She soothed the downed Pokégirl, saying that she would make it up to her tonight.

"Master, where did you and Ruby go?" the Ivywhore interrupted with a small bit of curiosity.

Fay's expression lit up "Ooh! That reminds me, Rave guess what I managed to get in a Pokébattle for salvage!" She burst, stepping back and retrieving the dream stone she won earlier, the Harpy's expression lit up.

"Another dream stone!" She exclaimed.

"Heh yep, just like you wanted, we can have you evolve when you're ready." Fay said, the Harpy set the time for tonight.

Pocketing the stone she turned to the Ivywhore "Me and Ruby didn't want to wake you girls, anyway we went out to go hunt for some girls ya know? We ran into a Tamer named John, so I managed to get the stone off a salvage battle. This beautiful girl here and another Tamer just happened to see it, they were looking for a place to set up camp, so I showed them the way, let me introduce ya!" She finished, turned to Hinata and smiled.

"You already know Ruby, this is my Firecat: Nila; my Harpy: Rave; and my Ivywhore: Ivy. Girls, this is Hinata and her Dracass: Tashira and Cheshire: Yue, there's another Tamer, names Naruto and he's got a Kitsune named Kiya." Fay introduced.

It didn't take long for Fay to release Ruby, intent on giving her a few P-medications to get her back to feeling better.

The Firecat immediately bounded over to the Cheshire, Yue felt her fur stand on end in reflex. Standing there oddly as the red-furred feline just stared at her and smiled.

"Nila likes Yue!" She said, arms suddenly wrapped around her Yue froze as the Firecat hugged her, a few seconds passed before she calmed down "Nice to meet you Nila." Yue greeted.


When Naruto and Kiya had come back, with lots of food as well, everyone got situated and it had seemed Naruto had planned ahead by getting food that was enough for everyone.

At least until Naruto and Kiya said that most of it belonged to them, but with the combined efforts of Hinata's cuteness, Tashira's threats, and Yue's pleads all put together Naruto and Kiya agreed to cut their share.

They talked about themselves, and about adventures they had gone through, Naruto and Hinata mostly making theirs up as they went in order to keep their secrecy in check, but sharing nonetheless, and soon the sun began to fall past the hills.

It was at this time Fay and Rave decided it was time, Fay took out the Dream stone she had in her pocket, and then retrieved another from her backpack "You guys can watch if you wanna, Rave here's been wanting to evolve for months now."

"Evolve into what?" Naruto asked in surprise.

"Just watch." She said, handing the two stones to Rave she held them close, and at first Naruto didn't think anything was going to happen. Suddenly she began to glow white, both Hinata and Naruto awed at the evolution as she soon evolved into a different avian pokegirl, and from what the dex said, it was a Harp Lady.

"Now isn't she lovely." Fay whispered, then she turned to Hinata and Naruto's group "Now shoo, we're gonna do stuff to her." She ordered with a grin.

Hinata and Naruto's faces heated up.

"Y-you mean all five of you?" He asked as he pointed at them all, Fay looked at them kind of funny "Well yeah, I mean I don't wanna neglect the others on this special occasion, and I'm sure they wanna screw with her as much as I do." She answered.

Naruto and Hinata nodded dumbly before they left Fay to her own devices in their medium-sized tent, Hinata, and their Pokégirls set up camp thirty yards away from Fay and her harem, and put on a fire to keep them warm.

After a long grueling two hours Fay had walked out of the tent, butt naked too, waving to Naruto and Hinata and telling them that they were going to bed because they had to wake up early in the morning.

Naruto and Hinata stammered a good night to her before Fay retreated into their tent.

Naruto looked over at the pond near the area, and across that pond Tamers still battled each other. Of course though they weren't all the same Tamer's and it wasn't all constant, they'd have a battle after every ten or so minutes of rest. Naruto couldn't help but feel the urge to go over there and watch the Pokébattles up close.

He asked if anyone wanted to join him, but Tashira was asleep, and Hinata and Yue wished to get in a few hours of meditation before the day ended. on the bright side his alpha Kiya didn't mind, Hinata told Naruto not to draw any attention to himself before they left. So with a form of a sixteen year old and an exuberant Kitsune sitting on the blonde's shoulders like a little Pokékit, they checked out what kind of competition there was.

"Is he carrying a Kitsune on his shoulders?" A Tamer asked another.

Sure he got a few odd stares from some Tamer's and even weirder ones from Pokégirls, but Naruto grinned and walked around the pond to where the battles were happening surrounded with the crowd of Pokégirls and Tamers, at least about seventeen Tamers but the Pokégirls made up the majority of the crowd.

Naruto raised his brow, seeing a Charmelon and some ground type Pokégirl fighting, despite the fact that Ground was stronger than fire and the Charmelon was losing throughout most of the battle, until the last moment the Tamer had the Charmelon pull her strongest flame technique out of her ass just when her opponent dropped her guard sending her careening into the pond.

"Wow, didn't suspect that."

"Meh, he's alright, I don't think he could beat my alpha though."

These comments continued to go around back and forth, and soon taunts turned to bets and bets turned to challenges before it soon lead to another poke match. Naruto proceeded watching the next two battles with Kiya, and at the end he couldn't help but tilt his head at these two beginning Tamers, some Tamers around here weren't impressed and he had to admit, neither was he, the matches between beginners was just having their Pokégirls blasting techniques after techniques sometimes destroying a little bit of the terrain, luckily everyone gave the battlers at least twenty yards distance.

Could there be a set time limit? From what Tashira said when she elaborated more on poke matches, there could be judges that could decide who the winner was if the time limit ran up and both Pokégirls were still standing.

Naruto felt himself grin in excitement, eagerly waiting to see the next battle, and with each one he observed then the more he stood a chance at winning Pokébattles while not appearing to be breaking any rules, he was finding loopholes.

The next match was with a psychic versus a plant type, wasn't really a match if it could be called that, the psychic manly stayed at a distance and used her psychic abilities, the plant appeared to be a close range combat type so the outcome was obvious, but still it was good to know that he made his prediction right. The small fight showed him another rule that could or could not be applied, at the beginning of the battle the two Tamer's both withdrew their Pokégirls, not knowing who their opponent was, it seemed that it depended on what the Tamer's agreed to before the battle, whether it was to choose their Pokégirls and let the other know before the fight or draw them at chance.

Naruto watched as battles gone and went, conditions, rules and prizes determined and won or lost, really the concept of this Pokébattling was quite interesting. The next Pokébattle to follow was pretty violent, an AmaChamp and an AmazonLee and they even managed to ruin the ground and knock down some tree's before the AmazonLee managed to land a spinning kick to the AmaChamp's face sending blood spraying and the Pokégirl into blissful unconsciousness, the crowd echoing an 'Ooooh!'.

~Whistle~ Naruto looked up to Kiya, patting her thigh she looked down to him "What do you think about the crowd?" He asked, looking back out to see an avian Pokégirl against a water type, Naruto looked up to Kiya. The Kitsune shrugged, mulling it over to herself she replied "I could probably beat most of them, but only if you wanted me to." She whispered alluringly, Kiya grinned wagging her tail across Naruto's back suggestively "And if there was a reward if I won." She finished.

Naruto looked back to the match just in time to see the Avian Pokégirl dive at her opponent and crashed into her, knocking her into a tree, the victor now decided. The male tamer grumbled before pulling out a pokeball and tossing it over to the victor's.

Naruto's grin faltered a little.

He'd forget how someone could gamble their Pokégirls. The Tamer had just given one his own Pokégirls away without a second thought, sure he looked pained, but it was at how quickly he recovered that bothered him.

Naruto stopped smiling, patting Kiya's thigh to get her attention he mouthed to her, 'I think I've seen enough, let's go.'

Kiya pouted, but didn't argue, and so Naruto slowly turned around.

"Hey kid!" A female's voice called over, Naruto was gracious enough to think it was him and turned around in surprise "Huh?"

A girl, probably the same age as him hopefully, but she was short, like Naruto's normal self, but he could make an exception since he himself was just fourteen. Well, even if she did look young the laws around here had to make some sense so she had to be at least sixteen to be able to be a Tamer, or maybe she was rich? Just really really-

"Hello!" She yelled seeing the blond stare at her, breaking Naruto out of his thoughts.

"I said that you've just been standing there watching battles for the past hour. You got a pretty healthy Kitsune there, I want to know if you want to battle for Salvage?" She asked.

Naruto blinked, and then glanced up at Kiya as she looked back at him, then they looked at the Tamer "A battle for salvage?" Naruto whispered, almost as if considering his options, Hinata said not to draw any attention to himself, but then again he could probably wager money; or get evolution stones for Yue; those toys Tashira's been asking for to use on Hinata; maybe clothes; or equipment for them... food.

Think of the benefits, training experience, getting a feel for what it was like to battle.

Naruto mused that over, Kiya seemed pretty ecstatic "Well Naruto?" She asked.

"Ehhh, could you give us a moment to think about it?" He asked, she responded with an 'Okay'.

Naruto let Kiya down off his shoulders and huddled with her.

"Kiya, Con's."

"We lose and have to give her something, Hinata and Tashira get mad at us, we get humiliated, Hinata trains us into the ground, Hinata will probably rape you as a girl again and Tashira might bite off my tail." She listed cautiously.

"You know about that?" Naruto jumped, Kiya looked insulted "Please, my ears were working back then, and honestly your kind of Hinata's bitch aren't ya?" She asked with a giggle.

"Why you-... Okay, so nothing majorly traumatizing, I can live with that. What are the Pro's?" He asked.

"We get something if we win, maybe my power level will go up, Hinata, Tashira and Yue will be proud of us, I get a Taming with five rounds-" She couldn't help but grin, Naruto staring at her incredulously "And also we get some training and experience in." She listed off.

Naruto nodded sagely "You sure you wanna do this?" He asked.

"Please?" She asked, she had been waiting to fight someone other than Naruto, Hinata, Tashira or Yue for a while now.

"Alright then, let's-"

"Ah ah ahh, on one condition." Kiya grinned, Naruto blanched "What?"

"A session first thing tomorrow morning." She negotiated, imaginary hearts appeared in her thoughts as she couldn't help but wiggle her tail.

Naruto sweatdropped "Really, that's what you're thinking about right now?" He asked deadpanned.

"I'm a Pokégirl, it's what I always think about." She replied with big brown eyes.

"Point," Naruto smiled "Alright, just make sure not to reveal anything to make us out to be suspicious or anything okay?" he asked.

"Kay'."

They turned around and out of their huddle "What are the terms?" Naruto asked suspiciously, the Cons were minor, but they were still there and while it seemed out of reach that they wouldn't win, there was always the possibility that they break an unknown rule and lose by default.

She tilted her head cutely "Nothing much, what do you want to wager?" She asked.

Naruto paused, he just spent pretty much the last of his credits on food, the evolution crystal they had belonged to Yue, couldn't really sell their clothes, and all their training equipment was needed.

"Uh..." He droned, damn it what the hell could they actually wager?... uh -uh... medicine, Medicine! Plenty of it.

"P-Medication?" He asked.

"Out of all the things." A Tamer whispered to another Tamer, he nodded in return.

She smiled "Sure why not, I'll wager... ehh about fifty thousand credits." She said, Naruto smiled.

"Alright then, a battle for salvage, my P-medication for your credits, alright?" Naruto asked.

She winked "Gotcha'!"

"We draw to chance." Naruto said she nodded already having her hand on one of her Pokéballs.

"GO!" She yelled, before throwing her pokeball out as it opened.

"Alright Kiya let's go!" Naruto yelled before pointing at the Pokegirl materializing from the red light. Kiya's eyes saw Naruto's signal and so she rushed off.

She jumped into the air, twirling a few times mainly just to show off before bringing her leg back unleashing it across the Pokégirl's head who had just finish materializing, not suspecting the attack at all she was sent to the ground tumbling, mid-roll Kiya turned, wrapping her tail around her opponent's leg she flung her to the opposite direction, crashing into a dead tree and bringing it down.

Naruto paused, looking at the crowds expressions around in slight nervousness.

'Little too much Kiya...' Naruto thought to himself, a sweatdrop on the side of his head.

Most of them, not all, but definitely all the beginner's had their mouths open; Tamer's and Pokégirl's alike staring in shock at how the battle hadn't exactly started and yet a Pokégirl was already crumpled against a broken tree cradling her muzzle.

"Master? Isn't that cheating?" A Pokégirl asked her Tamer, the Tamer himself merely shrugged his shoulders before replying "There's nothing saying that he couldn't do that."

'Maybe we showed off a little too much. I didn't say she had to hold back but I could've been a little more accurate, maybe I should have Hinata teach me about tact.'

Naruto scratched his cheek bashfully. Kiya was standing there confused, mainly at how her spinning kick had sent her tumbling, Tashira would never have let that happen to her, heck none of her group would, honestly the Kitsune was surprised that her attacks landed.

The Female tamer had her jaw slightly ajar struggling with herself on whether to determine that a cheap shot, or if they were just extremely experienced.

Naruto slowly took out his pokedex and aimed it at the Pokégirl rubbing her cheek and glaring at the fox.

What Catgirls are to cat types, Doggirls are to dog types.

Doggirls are not that much of an improvement over Puppies. Like Catgirls, it's very strongly suspected that Doggirls may have been among the very first evolutions ever designed into a Pokégirl. As such, it's not that really spectacular a change, though very few people would complain, given that Doggirls (called Inumimi in Edo and Opal areas) definitely are slightly more physically attractive than their pre-evolution form.

Doggirls gain roughly half an inch to an inch in height, as well as a quarter of a cup-size in their breasts. Their leg and arm muscles grow stronger, as does their sense of smell and hearing, and their tail size usually increases as well, unless they were a tailless breed of Puppy beforehand. Most Doggirls seem a bit more grown up in terms of maturity, but it's an irritatingly difficult quality to define and doesn't really change their overall persona. Some actually become more emotionally mature, and display a bit more calmness and self-control than when they were Puppies.

Because their arm and leg muscles are stronger, Doggirls are usually a third faster than when they were Puppies, although this can go as high as two times as fast. Their endurance is often quite a bit better and it's believed that their longer tail may help them maintain their balance better, although like many things about them, it's inconclusive. One of the only conclusive things about Doggirls and canine-types in general is the strong sense of loyalty they have. This helped canine-type breeds retain a lot of favor after Mao Shin Mao's attacks.

The average Doggirl will find that they can learn punch-based attacks much easier than most others. As such, a Doggirl can sometimes be a good training partner for an Amazonchan (though rarely a Herochan), and are often good friends with them. This, in turn, can make them feel slightly disdainful against Amazonkapoeera, but it's never that pronounced, as the friendly, amiable nature common to most Doggirls makes it hard for them to hold a grudge. The closest they come to this is the friendly rivalry Doggirls seem to have with Catgirls, but as good-natured as Doggirls are, they may forget about this rivalry in a moment of excitement.

Aside from their endurance and punching techniques, about the most impressive thing about Doggirls are their ability to use Dig naturally, their digging speed outmatched only by Digtits and a tiny handful of others. They can use this ability in battle, although they don't use it as the Digtit line does, mainly using it to dig up dirt and fling it at the opponent in a blinding attack. Stronger Doggirls can use Dig to dig up larger, heavier clumps of dirt for a more powerful projectile attack. They can even use this ability offensively, digging up large rocks for Rock Throw. They tend to prefer front line fighting and direct hand-to-hand. In sex battles they're about average, although there have been some recorded instances of Doggirls proving their mettle in a sex match. And as with all canine-type Pokégirls, they retain the ability to use Puppy Dog Eyes.

Feral Doggirls, like most canine-types, tend to run in packs in the wild. They frequently scavenge for food around cities, and will act to defend each other should they be attacked. They aren't as easily scattered as Puppies are, and are more vicious in a fight than their previous form. Ferals and Domestics tend to be protective of Pokékits and infant humans.

Doggirls often get very randy around the Full Moon for some reason. Researchers are still trying to find out the answer to this question, although until now, nothing conclusive has been found out. Doggirls are among the most common Thresholds out there, happening just as frequently as Kittens, Puppies, and Catgirls, and almost as frequently as Ingenue, Bunnygirls, Titmice, and Bimbos. It's a somewhat painful Threshold result due to the physical changes, especially if the subject in question turns into a tailed breed of Doggirl, but not unbearably so. The changes are usually quick, depending on how much fur they grow.

Naruto stared at the pokedex.

The Doggirl glared at Kiya "Y-you bitch, I wasn't ready!" She yelled.

Kiya's tail twitched "Ironic." she muttered to herself, a female dog calling her a bitch. With Naruto engrossed in his pokedex and Kiya not being able to hear nor was she paying attention missed the order her Tamer gave her opponent, next thing she knew a blur heading right at her crashed head on into her, her shoulder digging into the fox's gut leaving her breathless and sending her into the air.

'Kk! If Tashira saw that she'd never let me hear the end of it.' Re-adjusting herself she used her hip as her focal point, kicking her legs into the air she back-flipped and skidded across the ground on her feet. The attack didn't do much damage, it was just being surprised that made it sort of stunning.

"How'd you like it when you weren't ready!" She yelled baring her teeth, Kiya was only able to make out the words 'weren't ready' when she looked up. With her concentration all on this Doggirl she wouldn't be able to lip read her Tamer's commands, Kiya softly chuckled to herself, 'Almost like normal sparring with the group.' she thought, this would make things interesting, fighting an opponent who looked like she fought without orders like Tashira, Yue and herself were trained to.

'No matter.' Dropping to all fours she took off after the girl, her opponent looked to prepare herself until the very last moment, just before impact she disappeared and a hole in the ground was all that could be seen.

Kiya smirked, not breaking stride she slowly turned around as she pushed her energy out and used her own 'Hyper Sensitivity technique' as she liked to call it, and just like she predicted she could feel the vibrations in the ground.

So she came to a stop and went back to standing on two feet, waiting until the girl resurfaced. Just to pretend she didn't know where the Doggirl was she looked back and forth as if she was looking for her. Five seconds later she felt vibrations headed for her at her blind spot, from behind.

She burst from the ground with her claws poised, and at the last second Kiya ducked her claw and then evaded to the left to avoid the other, turning around while readying her fist for an uppercut she unleashed a Shoryuken into the girl's jaw.

She felt the girl's body shudder, tensing and unprepared as she was sent upward. Now was her chance, a ground-based Pokégirl up in the air was now left vulnerable, she prepared to pull off one of Naruto's friend's talents.

She jumped to her hands and pushed off the ground, bending her left leg she kept her right extended and buried it into the girl's stomach sending her higher into the air, Kiya didn't have this chakra that Naruto and Hinata explained to push herself off the ground, but she was prepared for that, she had an alternative.

Opening her hands and pointing them to the ground she unleashed a large amount of energy through her hands, her Ember technique doing its job as fire burst from her hands acting as a rocket, of course this was only a theory she came up just a few seconds ago, but damn it worked! Lifting her off the ground she used her other leg to catch her opponent in the gut, then again with her other foot, again and again Kiya kicked the Doggirl higher into the air with each thrust.

Naruto's sweatdrop increased twice its size, 'Kiya, you have more energy than most Kitsune's your level.' Naruto thought, daring himself to look at everyone's mouths open wide.

Kiya winced feeling her hands beginning to become hot, but that was okay they were already fifty feet off the ground, canceling the technique she spun around using her tail to maneuver her through the air and for just a moment, she caught a glimpse of all the shocked faces down below, even Naruto's.

Now she was getting excited.

She grabbed hold of the Doggirl's clothing and pulled her down and switched their positions where it was her below and Kiya above. Rearing her fists back she unleashed fury into where ever her attacks landed, Kiya couldn't help but grin 'This is too easy.' She thought.

She pulled back her fist one last time, intent on finishing all of this in one last blow and just before ground impact she released her pent up energy into the Doggirl's face. Pushing energy to reinforce her hands she pushed off the girls breasts to get herself up into the air. Doing a frontal flip she landed on the ground a little shaky from being dizzy. As for the Doggirl, she crashed into the ground creating a small crater in the ground, groaning in agony as she laid there a bruised mess.

Kiya's dizziness was partially from the spin, but most of it was from the energy she put into that attack, no wonder Naruto said it put a lot of strain on Lee.

Everyone was too stunned to move other than the challenger female Tamer, her arms were crossed and her eyes were closed.

"Woah, did you see that?"

"But I thought Kitsune's weren't good at fighting?"

"Such skill, who knew that she was so strong?"

Comments like these began to erupt around the crowd in awe at the show of sheer strength and speed.

Naruto grinned "Kiya that was awesome!" He congratulated, Kiya grinned at the attention "Yeah right, you've seen me pull off harder stuff in tr-" She stopped herself; Naruto had his finger to his lips motioning her to stop.

Oh yeah, she forgot, if she said anything about training Tamer's would clamor all over Naruto asking how he did it.

~Sigh~

Naruto looked up, Kiya seeing her owner looking behind her she looked back as well.

What pretty much everyone didn't know was that Recca here carried around a certain stone in the back of her pocket just in case at all times, since she already had it on her person it was perfectly legal in terms of Pokébattle rules, like how a Kunoichi used ninja tools.

"R-Recca, Are you sure you want to?" The Tamer asked.

"Yeah. Didn't think I'd use it here." She whispered, reaching into her back pocket she retrieved the stone, and let herself draw on its energy, it wasn't long before she began to glow. Slowly she felt rejuvenated and healthier, stronger, faster, and overall better than before as she stood back up, by the time the evolution had finished its course she was an entirely new Pokégirl without a hint of injury. Her small frame shot up, her breasts enlarged and her brown fur disappeared on the very near human Pokégirl..

Naruto and Kiya stared in shock at the newly transformed girl, Naruto getting a read on her before it was too late.

One of the original species to appear during the War of Revenge, in modern day, Lupinas are a considerably rare and very popular species of Pokégirls that, like Griffons and the like, has two modes. The passive (or normal) mode and the attack mode.

When in their Passive Mode, a Lupina looks like any normal Very Near Human type Pokégirl, usually slightly tanned and gently muscled, standing anywhere from 5'8" to a solid 6' in height and usually with breasts that are around a generous C-Cup with only a few exceptions of her looks hinting to what her true species is. While the only outward physical trait that points to what she truly is are the Lupina's slightly pointed ears, one should know that in her Very Near Human mode, a Lupina has a very good sense of smell, hearing and night vision. This is the form that is preferred by Domestic and Threshold Lupina.

When in her Attack Mode, a Lupina increases in both her size and muscle-mass, ranging anywhere from an impressive 6'10" anywhere up to 10'! As she becomes a perfect anthropomorphic wolf, a Lupina's whole body becomes covered in fur, normally the same color as her hair, (common colors being brown, black, gray, and white, with some being red or silver) and her hands and feet gain an impressive set of claws. It is understandable that in this mode, Lupinas are very strong and dangerous, becoming an excellent fighter in combat.

Appearing in the latter half of Sukebe's war on humanity, it was theorized that Lupinas were created as a secondary, if not replacement Dog-type for the Growlie. As found after the war had ended and Pokégirls started to become domesticated, Lupinas are an incredibly strong-willed Pokégirl and won't just bend to the will of another. The Lupina is not submissive type of Pokégirl, no matter how much they're sweet-talked, trained, or dominated, which makes for a Pokégirl that is not easily turned against her kindred. Truly, it was an aspect that Sukebe's forces would have benefited from.
However, it is not impossible to turn the Werewolf Pokégirl to one's own cause. It takes a considerable amount of hard work and effort on the part of a Tamer to get on a Lupina's good-side. Still, because they ARE a Dog-types, Lupinas do have that basic drive to show loyalty and concern for someone they care about like other canines.

That is why those that do become bonded are very loyal to a Tamer that they like and will often show submissive behavior to them, albeit only in private. It is this loyalty that has given the Lupina a startling level of popularity; a loyalty where they would literally give their life to keep their master safe. Interestingly, the Feral Lupinas have been the easiest to turn and make loyal to a Tamer, albeit not without other troubles.

Feral Lupinas travel in packs, normally ranging in numbers between eight to a full dozen. These packs are a more common sight over in the Blue Continent and regions of the World Champ League. It should be also warned that until taken from their pack sisters, a Feral Lupina gives all of her loyalty to them, and if one is attacked, all will defend one another with ferocity.
When it comes to battle, a Lupina is a very serious force to reckon with. While a Fighting-type, it is not their primary element, and so their battle style is a mix of modes. A Lupina's upper-body attacks seem to be more like an animal, biting and clawing with abandon, and using her voice to cause ill-effects to an opponent Pokégirl.

However, when it comes to her legs, a Lupina is almost as dependable as an Amazonlee, and can cause some serious damage, especially with her clawed feet. Top it off with the fact a Lupina also regains health over time, (15 HP every 3 minutes) and the Lupina as a Pokégirl for traveling Tamers that don't have the money for potions on hand or carry a PPHU.

However, one should be careful about pitting them against a Pokégirl of the Magic-type. Due to the nature of their transformative abilities, Lupinas have a clear weakness against magical attacks. It interferes with their healing abilities, and causes greater damage then most attacks, and that will add up over time.

Taming a Lupina is usually done while the Pokégirl is in her Passive Mode, as it is easier for a Tamer to take control of the Pokégirl, and allows for equal participation from the get-go. However, some Tamers prefer to Tame a Lupina while she is in her Attack Mode, which understandably, can be seen as a more exotic and tantalizing. To do this safely, a Tamer should start off with using higher-end restraints until they've trained their Lupina how to restrain themselves during Taming. It is also suggested a Tamer use toys for the larger Lupinas, as to better sexually please them. No matter the form they're in, Lupinas prefer Doggy-style the best.

The form of Lupina is not a common occurrence for a girl going through Threshold. However, it is certainly not unheard of, and is becoming more of a common occurrence to this date. It is speculated in the next decade, the frequency of a Lupina might be lowered to Uncommon in the Blue and World Champ Leagues as their numbers grow.

"Five levels..." Naruto whispered, in just one moment to another she went up five levels through an evolution "Kiya." He whispered, the longer this fight dragged on the more the Lupina would heal herself, and he didn't think Kiya knew about her attack mode.

"It doesn't matter Naruto, I'll take her down again." Kiya smirked before turning away from Naruto and to the Lupina she walked forward.

The Lupina gave a very wolf-like smirk, Kiya looked her in the eyes "Ya know I'm glad you evolved. I hope this time you're more of a challenge than earlier." She taunted with a very foxlike grin.

"I won't disappoint." She said.

"We'll see."

Kiya rushed forward, pulling her fist back she used a frontal assault, something Hinata told her never worked on a prepared opponent and should never try unless they were vulnerable, but then again with an opponent this weak what was the harm? She just got done pounding her into the ground, so with that thought in mind she extended her fist.

It closed in ever so slowly, and she actually believed it would it-

... She caught it?

Recca's hand gripped her fist as she didn't even seem to flinch, her smirk was still there.

Kiya looked at her fist in the larger Pokégirl's hand "Huh, Didn't expect that." She muttered nervously. The Lupina grinned before white fur began to grow all over her body, and her height grew to tower over the Kitsune, muscles were able to be seen more easily as she bulked up.

Kiya stared at the Lupina's breasts "Damn."

Her other large fist came down against the vulpine's face.

Kiya's legs buckled sending her to the ground as it cracked under the pressure of her landing. Stars filled her vision momentarily, and while she couldn't see that female Tamer, she was pretty sure she was the one giving this Lupina the orders.

The white-furred Pokégirl stomped her foot on her opponents head.

"Ggn...! So violent." Kiya grunted under the Lupina's foot and for a moment she thought her head was going to break like an egg under the pressure. She narrowed her eyes before she swiped the Lupina's other leg out from under her causing her to lose her balance.

In that short time Kiya immediately retreated to collect herself, the side of her face stung with the familiar feeling of Tashira's fist, Kiya rubbed her cheek 'Oww... she hits almost as hard as Tashira.' she thought. Okay think, find a way to change her transformation into a disadvantage for her, find ways to exploit it.

'At least she doesn't know the form switchy thing Tashira does.' She didn't want to know how this fight would go if she did. Seeing the Lupina slowly getting up, Kiya rushed forward not intending to lose her first match; she couldn't imagine the hellish training that would follow.

Ducking under the Lupina's swipe at her head she used that opening to bring her leg up and connect it into the Lupina's ribs, doing its effect she grabbed her ribs in pain.

Kiya readied her fist before Unleashing fury into her gut with each fist, after the sixth the red-furred alpha brought her leg up into the larger girl's jaw sending her staggering back growling in pain.

'Now while she's focused on the pain!' she brought her hands together. She could easily use this technique without the pose, but Naruto and Hinata were the ones to push her to use this technique to its absolute limit so she could use it to its maximum effect.

Gathering her energy, her eyes began to glow blue, waves of supernatural intent spreading out in waves all directed at the Lupina.

What she didn't suspect was for the Lupina to freeze completely as if trapped in a trance; maybe she put too much energy into it but now was no time to ponder it. Her Psychic Illusion technique seemed to prove more effective than she thought. Back then her technique was only active as long as she continued to concentrate on it, but now she managed to make it last for a few extra seconds after she stopped concentrating.

Kiya rushed forward at the frozen girl, and she didn't show any mercy, but she was pulling some punches so as she didn't seem overly powerful to the viewers watching this fight, after all she still had a secret to keep.

By the time the Lupina's mind came to she was sprawled out on the ground taking a few seconds to realize what happened.

Kiya noticed the Lupina's eyes now beginning to move, and soon she began to get up whilst glaring daggers at the Kitsune. Wiping her mouth of the blood that accumulated on her lips, she growled "That was a dirty trick."

"Maybe, but I'm curious, why was it stronger than I thought it'd be? Are you weak against Psychics?" Kiya asked interestedly.

Recca growled before charging at her, claws at the ready she swiped at the smaller Pokégirl, Kiya evaded to the right, left, duck and then drop back to avoid the two hand swipe.

"Rrgh hold still!" She roared before continuing her assault, clawing at her over and over as Kiya continued to draw back and dodge trying to think of a plan.

"Stop moving!" She growled.

"Heh, if I did that this really wouldn't be a battle," She replied, her feet positioned only a few feet from the lake behind her.

Upon Recca's charge Kiya jumped over her the Kitsune doing a twirl before landing on her opponent's opposite side, Kiya tilted her head "Ya know it'd probably just be, well, training." She finished sheepishly.

The Lupina's punches, while they were indeed strong they were too slow to hit the smaller girl, but Kiya's punches didn't go without risk, the Lupina could take the abuse and could catch her attacks if she got the chance.

'It's almost annoying, neither of us are really hurting each other.' She thought before Recca attacked again.

Kiya jumped away, back-flipping she landed twenty yards away. Kiya's eyes scanned the Lupina's condition, about twenty seconds of beating the crap out of her while she was frozen in her Illusion and she didn't even looked fazed, sure she had the blood, but she just spent three minutes trying to claw her and she could clearly see the Lupina was no longer hurt, damn these healing Pokégirls, she remembered fighting one for her captured rabbit back when she was feral and before she tried to molest Naruto, no matter the damage they always keep coming at her.

'Guess I'll just have to be quick enough to land a blow that knocks her unconscious, but with her height, muscles and weight, getting her into the air like last time isn't going to be easy.' She thought to herself. She looked back to the lupine.

Then the Lupina blurred.

Kiya's eyes widened, figuring that the Lupina was too slow to move like that, she couldn't help but step back when the large girl stood before her towering over her, she went in close and opened her Jaw wider than Kiya's head before snapping it shut with a loud clap, her Bite attack took effect, Kiya's body froze, her body stunned as she couldn't help but feel her body overcome with panic.

Recca used that time preciously; grabbing the Kitsune's arm she brought other her arm back before back-handing the smaller Pokégirl. Kiya didn't respond, blood flying from her mouth, Recca curled her hand into a fist "I've got you now." She growled at the frozen vulpine.

While holding the girl she began to release pent up anger, her large fist unleashing punches into her face, and gut and with every punch to her stomach Kiya felt like she lost the ability to breathe. Letting her go she let off one more punch across the face sending Kiya to the ground.

Falling to her knees and elbows Kiya spit out blood. she didn't have time to rest, it seemed Recca wasn't showing any mercy either, kicking her in her side. It was more effective then Kiya would've liked.

Recca watched as the Vulpine's body slowly spun in the air sideways before finally crashing to the ground a few feet to the left side of the battling area. Tamer's and Pokégirl's at the side stepped back to give her space.

Kiya laid there for a few moments trying to regain her surroundings.

"This isn't fun anymore; she's almost as bad as Naruto." She muttered to herself, slowly getting up onto her knees.

That is until she felt something land on her, an extreme weight over two hundred pounds landed on her back sending her back to the ground and this time screaming in ground caved in unexpectedly, tree's nearby began to fall in, Tamer's and Pokégirl's yelled in surprise as some fell in, a hole suddenly formed about five meters deep.

Recca was just standing on a pile of rocks, to anyone's best guess Kiya was buried under her.

Recca chuckled "Not so jumpy now are you?" She asked before she stepped off the vulpine girl, leaning down she grabbed a firm hold of Kiya's tail and lifted her up out of the rubble. Kiya howled feeling as if her tail was about to be pulled off.

Swinging her she threw her into the side of the rock wall.

Pokegirls helped their Tamer's out of the large hole.

Kiya moaned to herself, for a moment she thought she imagined Naruto calling her name, then again she was currently deaf so maybe she was just horny. Now that she thought about it, this was Naruto's fault, yep all his fault with all his secrecy and stuff, she swore to herself that as soon as this was over she was going to make his dick purple.


"Kiya! Kiya! Are you all right?" Naruto yelled in panic, frantic for Kiya's well-being, he was tempted to throw in the towel and give the Tamer her bottle of medication, then again would Kiya be happy about that?

Although if this fight drove on any longer and the way it was going. The Tamer's weren't allowed to step onto the battle area or else they lost.

"Now Recca, attack before she can recover!" She ordered, and like she was told Recca reached down and grabbed Kiya's tail, throwing her into the side of the wall, parts of the wall broke into debris burying the girl.

That's it he couldn't help it-

"Calm down Naruto." Tashira ordered.

"Huh?" Naruto turned around, then he froze "T-Tashira what are you doing here?" He asked.

Tashira dug a finger into her ear "It's hard to sleep when your screaming at the top of your lungs, besides did you forget Kiya's deaf you idiot?" She asked before crossing her arms.

Naruto was taken aback, it was then that he realized exactly how long he had been over here, the sun were almost gone by now, and fires were set up around the Tamer's campsite's, had he really spent about an hour and a half over here already? Although going back to the matter at hand he, admittedly, sort of forgot "Oh, yeah." He muttered.

His eyes then enlarged "B-but Kiya's losing! I-I didn't think that sh-" He stopped when Tashira raised her hand.

"Did you forget you added weight to our seals about three hours ago?" She said.

Naruto stared at her.

"You forgot didn't you?" She asked irritated.

Naruto opened and closed his mouth before mustering up the ability to say "Oh."

Tashira rolled her eyes "And did you tell Kiya to hold back before the fight?" She asked.

Naruto couldn't help but blush at how Tashira's belittling gaze bore down on him at how he could forget such a thing that happened, well, basically twenty minutes ago when the fight started "Yeah."

"Damn you're an idiot." She sighed.

"I'm sorry I forgot; please don't tell Hinata about this!" He pleaded, Tashira smirked "Why cause she'll rape you again?"

"How does everybody know about this? You were asleep! I saw you!" He said.

"You thought we were asleep, and maybe we were until you and Hinata were halfway through. Really the only person you can blame is yourself, your moans echoed all the way back to Edo." She teased, Naruto stammered for a moment, his cheeks beginning to turn pink.

~Yawn~ "Just tell her to put some effort into it, you should know that Kiya's stronger than that, she wouldn't lose to someone as week as that Lupina. Honestly, I'm surprised you were worried." She said, something about what she said struck a chord in Naruto, but Tashira didn't care, turning back to walk around the small lake to go to bed, or at least now that she was awake, wake up Hinata for a Taming.

She turned to look at Naruto "Just keep it down, and if you could, try to get something for me out of these battles if you're gonna do anymore." She said before taking her leave.

Naruto remained quiet.

- "You should know that Kiya's stronger than that, she wouldn't lose to someone as week as that Lupina. Honestly, I'm surprised you were worried." -

Did she just compliment Kiya? And did she have such high expectations of him that something like this surprised her?

Still, how he could've doubted Kiya after all her training, he really should be ashamed of himself.


Kiya grunted, being this lupine's ragdoll was getting tedious, she decided that she wasn't going to hold her punches. She was going to fight how she wanted, besides she had been waiting for an opportunity like this.

Recca had transformed back into her passive mode, that meant she was more vulnerable to Kiya's punches, and if she could disrupt Tashira in her mid-transformation and force her back into her human form then she could do it to this dog. She wouldn't provide Recca with the chance to transform.

So now was as good a time as any, many people thought that this fight was over, and truthfully it was, but she wasn't going to be the one to lose. Not-uh no sirree, she had too much riding on this, a taming wasn't something she was going to let slip by her furry hands.

'Hopefully, even with this new weight, I'll still be able to sustain this technique.' Kiya had been practicing this technique with Naruto and the others for a while now and she needed to see how it'd fare in combat.

Fire was a dangerous thing to play with, especially if you had fur covering your whole body. She had to keep the fire two inches from her fur but still have it coat her fists so it'd burn her opponent upon contact, in between her hands and the fire would be a protective layer of her regular energy to hold off the heat longer.

By manipulating her Ember technique she could coat her fists in gloves of fire, making sure to keep it far enough away from her fur not to completely set it on fire.

She waited until Recca's back was turned, and then with the opening set, Kiya burst out of the rubble with her fists pulled back.

Fire burst into existence and slowly it formed into a layer over Kiya's fist.

Recca turned around in surprise, and following her master's orders she opened her mouth wide and howled, sound waves powerful enough to send rocks flying was released slowing the Kitsune down, the attack was ineffective due to Kiya's inability of hearing.

Kiya smirked.

'Never actually thought I'd have an advantage by being deaf through a Pokébattle.' she thought as the waves passed by her, and it slowed her actions but she pressed on. As soon as she was in striking distance the first thing she did was shut her mouth with an uppercut, then a few anger induced punches to the gut sending the passive-formed Lupina bending over, the fire searing some of her skin. Kiya brought her knee to the Lupina's face which forced her to stagger backwards.

'She's a liar, she is allergic- er weak against Psychics!' She pouted... and she thought they were so close.

Striking her fist across the girls face, the heat seared her cheek. Recca screamed in pain and clutched the side of her face, but with her healing ability it was slowly repairing itself, 'No you don't.' Kiya thought before she ceased the fire technique and put her hands together, again trying her Psychic Illusion technique.

Kiya couldn't help but smirk at how she expectantly froze, and the odd thing was that her healing cheek stopped as well.

'Good night Lupina, put in a good fight, but in the end my need to fuck Naruto won.' She grinned very large, maybe even evil looking, whether it was at the Lupina or her future plans involving Naruto were known only to her.

TLTLTLT

"W-what happened?" The female Tamer asked as she sunk to her knees, her Pokégirl materializing back into her pokeball she watched as Kiya and Naruto turned out victorious, Kiya couldn't help but continue to grin, she won her first Pokébattle, and two weeks of taming sounded good.

But there relayed one problem with their victory...

"I wanna battle him!"

"Don't suppose he could beat one of my girls."

"I don't believe it, hey man wanna have a sparring match please?"

"Pokébattle for Salvage!"

Challenges sprung up like daisies, Naruto looked around in shock 'You'd think they'd be scared to battle someone who just won against a Lupina.' Naruto thought. Then another memory came into his thoughts.

- "If you could, try to get something for me out of these battles if you're gonna do anymore." -

Naruto raised his brow in thought before turning to Kiya "What'cha think Kiya, do you wanna battle some more?" He asked. Instead of a 'Yep' or even a joyous nod, all he saw was her clueless face slowly widen to almost horrific proportions as her sharp teeth showed a grin... it vaguely reminded him of someone else... but Naruto couldn't put his finger on it.

He crossed his arms with a smile "A battle for Salvage, what do you have to wager?" He asked, he had a sort of preppy look to him, sorta uptight, maybe even a little cocky like someone who got what he wanted, looked around the age of nineteen.

"We have a large supply of P-Medication from shots to creams to pills, burn salve, herbs, and regeneration pills." He listed off, crossing his arms he nodded to himself.

He looked disappointed "No."

Naruto's eyes shot open... damn.

He had a couple credits left so maybe he'd take the money "Credits?" he asked "I'm not interested." He replied.

They had too many clothes to begin with "Clothes?" He asked, he shook his head.

Then again they didn't need that all those elemental scrolls.

"We have scrolls of all the elemental attacks." He optioned, he raised his brow, and many Tamers and Pokégirls began whispering amongst themselves, some giggling at him and Kiya.

Well, they could cross out the humiliation in the con's section.

"What would I need them for?" He asked with a snort, mostly rhetorical, seeing as how Pokégirls couldn't really learn that many different Pokégirl attacks. Naruto bashed himself over mentally at forgetting how these Tamers weren't like him and Hinata.

Naruto glanced to Kiya; she looked back and shrugged before charading something long pretending to hold the object at the base.

"A dick?" he asked, that set off giggles in the crowd, and the female Tamer's around stumbled for a bit, his challenger's face heating up, but Naruto continued to look at Kiya in confusion. Kiya mentally palmed her face "Hinata's sword." She whispered.

Naruto froze.

This guy's wager had better be worth it "A katana, new not even used." Naruto said, the man looked interested.

"Alright, and I will wager one of my Pokégirls, a choice of chance." He said meaning if he won he'd have to choose one without knowing what it was.

Naruto narrowed his eyes, almost angered "You'd wager one of your Pokégirl's like she's some object?" He asked.

"This isn't a wager because I won't lose, besides losing one of them doesn't really matter, I can always get a replacement."

"Even still." Naruto growled.

He huffed "Don't push your philosophy on me, Pokégirls are pretty much tools and toys anyway." He replied offhandedly "Will you accept these terms or not."

Naruto had a bad taste in his mouth at this man's perception of Pokégirls, although it provided the perfect chance to take away the Pokégirl from this Tamer seeing as how he didn't seem to care, Naruto looked to Kiya and nodded before she nodded back.

"Yeah we accept, but before we begin, how about throwing in an evolution stone, or maybe wager some credits or training equipment?" Naruto asked.

The man narrowed his eyes "I can respect wanting to get everything out of a battle." He replied, holding up all five fingers in his right hand "Five thousand credits and that's it."

"Why not Ten?" Naruto asked.

"Don't push it." He replied.

Naruto smirked, it seemed this was as far as he could stretch it "Alright, I accept the terms to this battle for Salvage." He said.

"The wagers are your Katana. While I wage one of my Pokégirls and five thousand credits." He said.

"What is this guy's deal?" A Tamer whispered to another.

"He does seem a little out of it." Another said as she looked at the blond Tamer, his choice of clothing was especially strange.

"Maybe he's an offspring of a Bimbo." A Pokégirl shrugged to her Tamer before setting her other harem sisters giggling.

"Yet he defeated the Lupina." Another Tamer reminded.

"Now before we begin any last questions you wanna ask?" The challenger opted.

Naruto nodded his head, his brows creased "Yeah, I just want to ask one last thing." He asked seriously, the man looked at him expectantly "What is that?"

Tashira wouldn't stop bothering him.

Naruto put his hands together "Your Pokégirls wouldn't happen to have any dildos would they? I plan on giving them to someone." he asked.

The man sputtered, Tamer's all around looking at Naruto as if he was crazy.

TLTLTLT

"Another one?" Kiya wheezed as she held her stomach from the pain.

"What are the terms?" Naruto asked curiously at the Tamer about the same height as him.

"Ten thousand credits if I lose, but if I win I get a copy of those clothes your wearing, I don't mind. You do have copies right?" He wagered pointing as his attire of combat clothing.

"Well, yeah." Naruto replied reluctantly considering his options on whether he'd have to go back Naked or not.

TLTLTLT

"Kiya, how you holding up?" Naruto whispered.

"A little cold." Kiya muttered in irritation, fuck, now her fur was going to get frizzy when it dried!

"What do you want?" Naruto asked as he crossed his arms with a raised brow.

A bruised and soaking wet Kitsune by his side, having been blown into a lake did that, but still ready to go despite her appearance.

"Well earlier you said you had scrolls of every Pokégirl elemental attacks, I wager my Angel stone for the Psychic, Grass, and Water scrolls!" The teen male decided before looking to his Pokégirl "Is that right?" He asked, she nodded.

"Okay, why not?" A shot at an Evolution stone, Yue will be soo happy!

TLTLTLT

"Kiya, can you handle another one?" Naruto asked.

Kiya huffed and wheezed for a few seconds as she still cradled the singed tip of her tail, fire in her eyes from her last match and still not yet cooled down "I'm fine." Kiya growled.

"What's the bets Lady?" Naruto asked curious what she'd lay out on the table.

"You said you needed toys; on one condition, you wager about five bottles of regeneration P-Medication!" She called out with a grin, sticking her bust out as she did.

"Y-you sure you want to wager them?" Naruto stuttered, she waved her hand.

"Yeah, I've got plenty; you can choose them out if you win."


"Man this is too much too handle." Naruto muttered as they carried what they won back to their campsite, many unhappy Tamer's being left back at the battling grounds, Kiya beside him with a skip in her step and an extra wag to her tail.

"What are you expecting me to carry the stuff?" Kiya asked, the sun had disappeared and it was now night, but the night was still young, maybe ten o'clock at the most, there were still tamer's sitting around camp fire's with their Pokégirl's chatting.

"I wasn't talking about the stuff. Seriously Kiya, a month?" He asked.

"It'd be better if I was set for life." Kiya said dreamily as if she wanted a life's supply of daily dick for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

"You do realize that eventually more Pokégirls are going to join our Harem, right? You can't keep making deals like this." Naruto Stated.

Kiya snorted "Watch me" Kiya huffed, there was no way he was backing out of the deal, or an future deals "You need to get your shit together, cause most likely they're going to make similar deals, I mean seriously you expect us to lay off of this to only once a month?" Kiya asked as she rubbed her tail in between Naruto's legs causing him to jump.

"It just can't be done; it's like humans and their cocaine." She said, going into character she grabbed at Naruto's clothes "Please just another taste, I'll suck your dick." She mocked before erupting into a set of giggles, maybe she was just feeling a little high and mighty at the fact that she won so many times in a row, honestly it was almost as good as sex.

"Heh heh haaa." Naruto fake laughed sarcastically now reaching their camping spot.

"What's so funny?" Tashira interrupted, sitting on her sleeping bag bare-ass naked to the open air next to the fire, her paper weight seal clearly presented on her chest in between her breasts. A nude Hinata and Yue covered in the blankets asleep, Naruto didn't need to question what they did.

"Kiya's laughing at me." Naruto whined pointing at the Kitsune sticking her tongue out at him.

Tashira snorted "Idiots."

Naruto dropped all the stuff down on his sleeping bag before fanning the air "Don't you have any decency Tashira? We're in public." He said.

Tashira looked at him "Well they're doing it." She pond the attention off at a camping spot with a male Tamer and his five Pokégirls sleeping in the nude in their tent with the door open, fire still going.

Naruto chuckled "Whatever. Anyway I got something for you." This got Tashira's attention.

Naruto tossed her a plastic bag, confused but not surprised Tashira snatched it out of the air, using one of her long nails she cut a hole in it to save the trouble of untying it. Pulling out the first object she saw she retrieved a bottle filled with dust, or some kind of sand.

Curiously she opened it, a large collection of pink dust, sniffing it she turned her head and sneezed so as not to spread the dust everywhere. Closing the lid she wiped her nose "Smells like a fairycute's juices." She muttered.

"Lust dust." He muttered causing Tashira to freeze "Should've told me before hand." She growled.

"Well I didn't know you were gonna sniff it!" Naruto replied defensively before waving his hand "Anyway I got those personal things you've wanted."

Tashira head scrimmaged the bag, pulling out G-strings, lube, a 4 inch dildo, 5 inch, 6 inches, hell one for every size and even multiple others; many other toys were in the bag as well. She looked up to Naruto with a small smirk "Thanks."

"Don't mention it." He replied.

~Yawn~ "I think Imma gonna go to bed now, with all my energy spent kicking ass and all." Kiya gloated one last time before stripping all clothing and snuggled into Naruto's sleeping bag "I'll be waiting Naruto." She said.

"Tch, I could kick your little ass any day." She challenged.

"Says the girl who hasn't won a single Pokébattle." She taunted.

Tashira tightened her fists before unclenching them, a small smirk on her face, she earned the right to gloat for now, but tomorrow...

Naruto chuckled softly at the back and forth.

"So, what other prizes did you win?" She asked.

Naruto sat down beside the pile of stuff, pulling an empty sealing scroll out of the bag near Hinata's he sighed "I suppose I should be lucky most of those Tamer's were beginners, while others... were just too cocky." He began before picking up the stone.

"We managed to get an Angel stone."

"Glad to see your thinking of Yue." Tashira commented, he smiled "Don't I always?" He asked before continuing.

"About thirty thousand credits total. That bag of sex I gave you-"

"Thanks again." Tashira said looking back to the bag.

"Even a set of medical equipment. -Er... I think they said this here was a Great ball, and there's also an Ultra ball." Naruto said unsurely "Honestly I don't see what the difference from the regular is; I mean sure the colors cool and all." Naruto shrugged.

"Idiot, with those pokeballs your able to capture stronger Pokégirls with half the trouble." Tashira explained, her bare breasts bouncing a couple times, Naruto couldn't help himself but spare himself a glance.

"Hope you won a camera because pictures usually last longer." Tashira gave her advice with a smirk making Naruto blushed "What are you even doing?" He asked in his own defense, she shouldn't be naked to begin win.

Tashira looked affronted, before she caved "That girlfriend of yours, my Tamer, she works up quite a sweat, and me not wanting to wake up sticky in my sleeping bag in the morning, decided to cool off." She explained.

Naruto shook his head "Wish I hadn't heard that. She's not my girlfriend." Naruto muttered.

Tashira raised a brow "So humans can have casual mindless hot sex too?"

Naruto's body went rigid at the assumption, he turned around "We're just getting it out if our system," Naruto explained quickly before she got the wrong idea "She's... The only one I have that's from the same place I am... Konoha." Naruto explained softly.

Tashira raised a brow "The only one you have," She relayed, making sure Naruto heard himself "Sounds a lot stronger than friendship. And last I checked, humans don't have sex with other human friends." She replied.

"It isn't my fault," Naruto blurted, Tashira staring at him "I'm serious, I- I don't know why but every time I feel her Youki... I don't know what I'm doing." Naruto muttered.

For a moment Tashira looked as if she didn't believe him before she considered it.

Naruto continued "She feels the exact same way with my chakra and we can't function unless we take care of those conflicting emotions so... We're just getting it out of our system." Naruto explained quietly.

"Did that even make sense?" Naruto muttered, he didn't know what he and Hinata were doing anymore.

Tashira merely gave him the look "Well isn't that just a load of crap." Tashira muttered apprehensively.

"What do you mean?" Naruto asked honestly confused, it wasn't like they were going to confess their love for each other or anything.

Tashira pondered on whether to tell the blond, but ultimately "You're new to your emotions, I mean you are a teenager after all... I'll tell you when you're older." Tashira finished, hopefully by then he would've figured it out by then.

"I guess." Naruto muttered and shrugged as he let the topic go for now.

"You learn something new every day." Kiya mumbled sleepily "Naruto..." She moaned before dazing off back into her dreams, Naruto completely forgetting to remember that her body faced away from them and thus how did she know what was said.

Naruto smiled as he shook his head at the Kitsune's behavior, before sealing off the supplies into the sealing scroll.

"So did you win anything else? Maybe a companion Kiya can hump besides you?" She asked, Kiya's middle finger rising up behind Naruto.

Naruto paused his work, seemingly staring at nothing for a few seconds before he sighed.

"Hey, Naruto." Tashira pestered, somewhat concerned at the sudden change.

"A pokeball." He said, holding up a regular standard pokeball, he looked disappointed "A Tamer bet her, as if she was just a piece of furniture." He whispered, his eyes looked far away as he observed the small sphere in his hand.

The thoughts of enlarging the ball and releasing her came to mind so badly, to meet the Pokégirl that didn't seem to be worth that Tamer's attention as he said 'Whatever just take her and go.' without any remorse.

"That is the general idea, besides I'd figure you'd be thrilled to have a new Pokégirl?" Tashira asked.

"Maybe. I haven't let her out yet, I picked her pokeball by chance." Naruto replied. Tashira smirked "Should've awoken Hinata and had her use her Byakugan."

Naruto did a half smile "I'm going to let her out tomorrow when everyone's awake, also we won't be tired then." Naruto explained.

Tashira tilted her head with a frown, noticing the change in Naruto's attitude rather easily, after spending months with him you sorta just attained that ability "What did the Tamer shove up your ass?"

Naruto continued to stare at his new pokeball "I just want to know why he even did it? A living being sold off for the chance to win a Katana."

"You bet Hinata's Katana?" Tashira asked with a small hint of anger, she'd be mad if she found out.

Naruto paid her no mind "He didn't even seem to care ya know? I mean I've known that it's the norm for people to own Pokégirls as theirs... but-" he paused himself, they spent most of their time in the forests and when they were in cities they were hiding away to make sure no one found out their secret... This was the first time he's seen this... Sure he knew, but knowing something and experiencing it were two different things.

Tashira huffed "Naruto whether you like it or not, you will encounter more Tamer's like him, deal with it." Tashira stated, Naruto turned to her with a small bit of anger.

Naruto then continued to look at the pokeball, momentarily pondering if he should just release her now.

"You expect me to let it go? Scumbags like him walk around throwing their Pokégirls around the way they want? Are you really okay with that?" Naruto asked quietly... It sickened him and it wasn't right.

Tashira's expression darkened "Watch yourself Naruto. You should just be glad that you managed to get one Pokégirl away from a guy like him, but hell with the world as it is, the others probably consider their situation a blessing."

Naruto narrowed his eyes before looking at the pokeball "What do you mean? Why would they?"

Tashira raised her eyebrows at Naruto "Do you honestly think that that's the worst it could get?" she asked "They have a Tamer who probably doesn't beat them, and can fuck him when they want." She said.

Naruto couldn't help but clench his other fist "Is that all that matters to Pokégirls? Just someone to screw not caring who it is?" He asked.

"Tch, we Pokegirls don't have a choice on who we screw, regardless of whether we'd want to or not we'd still get fucked to keep from going insane. Most of the time a Pokégirl screws a Tamer who they have to, but sometimes, maybe if we're good Pokégirls, we'll get lucky and we'll actually get a Tamer who we'll want to fuck." She explained.

"You make it sound like Pokégirls are slaves... Why do those people even become Tamer's? They shouldn't be allowed to; I thought that Pokégirls were considered second class citizens!" He asked.

Tashira let out a bellowing laugh making Naruto recoil in his anger, confused at what Tashira found so funny, but it wasn't a happy laugh, it was a hollow, empty one.

She stopped whilst shaking her head "Second class citizens, that's just something the government slapped in the rule book to show to Pokégirl lovers so that they'd shut the fuck up. If we were actually second class citizens we'd have more rights than we currently have but that isn't true. I'm not sure you noticed Naruto, but we are pretty much slaves." She said, Naruto's anger dropped.

"... How can you deal with that?" He asked.

Tashira looked at him, all of whatever enjoyment she had was gone "Because that's what we have to do, deal with it, most Pokégirls accept it, others reject it, but regardless we can't change anything. Despite the equality you've seen so far around here with Tamer's and Pokégirls, Pokégirls are really seen as just parts, like trading cards, toys, we're nothing to the humans here. If one dies, they could always get another, if one acts up then they can beat her, or get rid of her." Tashira shrugged.

Naruto looked at her, then looked away because he was partly ashamed, had he really been that blind not to see that this whole time "Has it always been like this?" He asked.

Tashira snorted "That's why Mao Shin Mao rebelled, and that's why Sanctuary Goths look for parity when they contradict themselves by keeping males as their slaves. It's why so many Pokégirls die. If you're out in the wild your trying to survive every day, free to do what you want but at the cost of some bigger and stronger Pokégirl killing you and having you for breakfast; if your captured then your subjugated to slavery, a lot of freedom taken and sometimes forcefully raped while they have the right to call it taming to "Keep everyone safe"." Tashira explained.

She looked right at Naruto calming herself down she laid back a bit "Whether you like it or not that's how it works around here. Sure most of these Tamer's would never hurt their Pokégirls, but do you think that if their Pokégirl broke their leg and could no longer battle that their Tamer wouldn't sell them off to a ranch? Pokegirls learn to deal and appreciate what they've got because the reality is that it could be very much worse. Pokegirls die every day, and not all of it in the wild, their either beaten to death, executed, all this other 'this Pokégirl was feral' crap. Or it could be worse, tortured by sadistic freaks, abusers, or just for business."

Naruto looked weirded out "Businesses? How can this be legal?" He asked.

Tashira laughed shallowly "You ever heard of snake skin pelts?" She asked and suddenly Naruto paled "They skin Naga's, make purses. There's also plenty of furred clothing, I imagine Kiya's pelt would be worth quite a bit of credits." Tashira said.

Naruto looked at her "Why... why would people allow this?" He asked shaking his head "It's just so wrong." He whispered as he clenched his fists.

Tashira shook her head "It's the Pokégirls that are dangerous. People could skin a Catgirl if they wanted to, but the fact is that Catgirls aren't that violent, good as fuck toys, extremely cute, and loyal; they have no reason to hurt or sell them. But if they met a Naga that had been attacking an orphanage and eating children, with that one Naga's act everyone writes The entire Naga species down as 'Dangerous' and as 'Products'." Tashira explained.

"Have you ever tasted sushi? Not all of it is from pure fish you know." She stated, Naruto bared his teeth, shaking his head back and forth at the mere thought of it.

Then Naruto froze.

"Did... you ever go through any of this?" He asked.

Tashira was quiet for a moment as she sat back, looking into the fire and watching as it cackled "Did you forget that Team Trauma kept me in a cage for so many months of my life as a test subject? Constantly being forced steroids, raped by some ugly bastard who sounded like he was running a marathon? Malnourished and no sun? Most Pokégirls get that around the world, I just happened to luck out when you two came along."

She turned to Naruto "It's not just me either Naruto, I was caged. Kiya spent all her life trying to survive on her own in the wild, Yue's previous Tamer died right in her arms." She said, Naruto pausing when he heard it, then Tashira pointed to the pokeball he was holding now "And you can probably imagine what she was put through with her old Tamer." She finished.

Naruto stared at the pokeball that lay in his hand, he felt his throat beginning to clench "So... are you just dealing with us because you know it could be a lot worse?" Naruto asked in a shaky voice, almost too afraid to ask.

Tashira chuckled "At first? Yeah, I did. I was scared on the inside when I found out that I had a female as a Tamer because I was sure that I was straight."

"Yet you didn't take the chance to switch, why?" He asked.

"I thought it'd cause mistrust around the group, I thought that she desperately wanted me while you wanted nothing to do with me and if I decided to go to you, anger would've began to circle... at least that's what I thought at first."

"But why did you not do anything?" Naruto asked confused.

"Because I knew that eating pussy wasn't the worst thing that could happen, seeing as how I'd just come out of something much worse at the time, but later on I realized that I was really lucky to have Hinata as my Tamer, and instead of being forced to have sex, I began to initiate, want even more from Hinata herself, and soon, I was glad I had chosen to stay with her." She said, before smiling "And while you don't tame me, I also like to think of you as my Tamer because you've treated all of us so well."

Naruto didn't hold back his smile "Technically I'm not your Tamer cause-"

"Can it, we're having a moment." Tashira interrupted.

Naruto slowly nodded.

Tashira snorted "Honestly, despite the lab coat and resources, they were all idiots. Being malnourished, not getting any sun, and not exercising doesn't exactly raise your power level." She vented.

She turned and looked at Naruto with gratitude "I'm glad you two came along and I want you to know that I'm not just dealing with it. I... I enjoy every moment with you guys. I'm not okay with what's happening around here to those unfortunate ones, if you really care, then do something about it." Tashira voiced seriously "I'm glad that you care Naruto, I really am, and... and I think that's what makes you and Hinata so- so special. It's almost like you guys can do anything... Bulletproof." Tashira muttered with a small blush.

Naruto turned to look at her, his mouth open and eyes wide in shock "Wow... that must've been hard to stomach." Naruto whispered.

"You have no idea." Tashira muttered.

Naruto slowly nodded, the world wasn't going to change as long as there was no major influence, and if it came from the Pokégirls it would only end in another Mao Shin Mao disaster. Still, changing this world's views on Pokégirls? Kill all the horrible Tamer's he came across... it was a possibility.

He may not be able to change this world's views, but he could still help where he could when he came across an unfortunate Pokégirl, and as for the Pokégirls in his and Hinata's harem, he swore that he'd give them as much freedom as he possibly could... The law be damned.

Somehow he'd find a way to make some difference... And right now all the Tamer's and Pokégirls were asleep, without anyone to witness he'd gladly break a law or two right now.

And in the morning mister Soy, the one who gave him his prize, was going to wake up with no pokeballs, Pokégirls being given to a PokéCenter twenty miles away into Blood League and then his Pokeballs destroyed. Naruto put his hands together and muttered something before a clone appeared next to him, sneaking off into the night, now that all the Tamer's and Pokégirls seemed to be asleep.

It was illegal, but he already broke so many of this world's laws already... after all what was truly wrong with this world? Following the law, or mistreating Pokégirls?

"I'm sorry you went through that Tashira-chan." Naruto apologized.

Tashira smiled "I'm here now and that's all that matters. Naruto the main point is to appreciate what you have."

Naruto took that to heart, so many Pokégirls were suffering in the world, he looked to the pokeball laying in his hand before laying it inside his backpack, he'd never let any of that happen to his girls.

They both looked up at the sky for a moment, and Naruto couldn't help but sigh. Throughout all the time he and Hinata had been here, there were times, brief moments when he saw the darker side around here, but not enough for him to actually consider, now, to just lay it all out on the table at once was... hard to deal with; With the fact that Pokégirls were actually treated as such.

"I'm glad to have bonded with you Naruto." She said, suddenly out of the blue, confusion, misunderstanding, and panic all struck the blond.

Naruto suddenly blanched, looking over to the taller woman "Bond? You mean like as in friendship right?" He asked. Tashira huffed, turning up her nose she sat up, looking away from the stars she turned to the blond "No, as in Pokegirl to Human." She replied as she towered over the boy.

Naruto sat up as well in confusion "What? I- I thought Pokégirls could only bond with a human through sex?" He asked.

Tashira shook her head "That's not even the half of it. Although being bonded to a Pokégirl does requires a connection, like a spark between the two and the easiest way to meet that bond is to just screw them." She had her brows narrowed in seriousness as she leaned closer, but this time Naruto remained still.

"That's all you bothered to know, that bond, that spark doesn't have to be sexual, but only some Tamer hippie would tell you sex wasn't involved. Sex was just one facet, an expression of what really drove it." She chuckled for a moment before looking out to the sky again.

Naruto tilted his head "Then, what are the other factors?" He asked.

She turned to him, and then laid her hand on his shoulder "What reason Pokégirls need for taming... It's the need for contact, one with another sentient being." She explained, resting her other hand on his shoulder she continued, leaning closer to him "It only needed to be contact, to be accepted by the one they liked." Tashira whispered as red eyes looked into blue "That is our type of bond Naruto."

For a brief moment Tashira kissed him and Naruto didn't resist, instead he took in all that she told him tonight, and how much of a lesson this actually was for him.

She broke the kiss.

"You and Hinata are one of those Tamer's that are one in a million." She couldn't believe she was saying this, and it looked like Naruto couldn't either. Looking to the side he chuckled nervously "This is the third time you've said something like that without saying I was an idiot." He laughed softly.

Tashira pulled him close to her "Shut up." She muttered, hugging the blond as his head rested against her bare breasts, Naruto going silent as he thought about everything they talked about, before finally enjoying Tashira's warmth, it must've been really hard for her to open up like that.

Suddenly she pushed him off and narrowed her eyes "And if you tell Kiya I was being emotional I'll make you pay." She added.

Naruto stared at her nervously "Got it." After all Kiya wouldn't be able to stop teasing her, constantly using it as blackmail.

She gave a pat on his shoulder before she laid back down, intent on going to sleep "There, I've answered your question, now go to sleep."

- Curiously she opened it, a large collection of pink dust, sniffing it she turned her head and sneezed so as not to spread the dust everywhere. Closing the lid she wiped her nose "Smells like a FairyCute's juices." She muttered.

"Lust dust." He muttered causing Tashira to freeze "Should've told me before hand." She growled. -

Was it because of that, or was she actually going on her own feelings?

Naruto remained silent, looking at Tashira not knowing how to process the little stir of feelings inside him, what exactly was a bond? A bond through friendship could be defined, so as a bond through love, but what did a Pokégirl bond actually mean? Was it friendship? Love or was it sex.

Naruto looked to Hinata and Yue's sleeping forms, then to Kiya's before looking back to Tashira.

He smiled "Thanks Tashira."

Kiya's ears flicked, after all the battling she asked that Tamer's Lupina a favor, to see if she could heal her ears and see if it'd work.

Kiya smiled as she let Naruto crawl in next to her.


"You sure that's him?" She asked unsurely before looking back to her master, the teen himself kept a steady eye on the blond, trying to sort out who he was and questioning himself on whether he was right or not.

He grabbed at his chest, before narrowing his eyes "Yeah, that's him."

His Pokégirl became silent, turning to look at the blond as he slowly lay down and tried to go to sleep "He's the one you've been feeling the connection with?" She asked.

The teen nodded his head "I... don't know what to do." He whispered.

"Should we attack him?" She asked, although her expression was normal, as if she expected him answer.

"No. He doesn't seem like he would be someone who wishes to fight, I'll try talking to him when the sun rises." He replied, his Pokégirl nodded her head "But judging from the Pokébattles we saw, he obviously trained his Pokégirl uniquely... and also she's a fox type." She whispered, glancing at her own furred hand in the process.

The teen looked at her "Too much of a coincidence, or do you finally believe me?" He asked.

The girl looked positively frightened for a brief moment "I've always believed you! I... I just didn't know how this could even happen." She replied, she was confused, sure her and her other harem sisters were prepared to come across anything that might be a possibility, but now it seemed so odd.

"Well, we'll find out tomorrow." He said before lying down on his sleeping bag, his swords by his side, and his Pokégirl's all but his alpha asleep. Now that he had found that weird source he didn't actually know how to go about this.

'Not to mention he created that clone.' It reminded him too much of...

Now that he found him, it or whatever this was he didn't know what the hell he was supposed to do next, he really should have planned this ahead of time, but as usual like master said, he rushed into it head first.

He sighed 'Master was right, I'm still green behind the ears.' While he didn't know how to go about this, he doubted rushing in killing his Pokégirls and interrogating him would do any good, but from the fights he saw, maybe they'd actually be able to defend themselves. Regardless, he had to do this calmly, he decided in the morning so he had to wake up early enough so they wouldn't take off while he was still asleep.

With the mysterious blond teenage Tamer only a few yards away, the teen had a little trouble going to sleep.
