"Let's go!" As if he needed to yell it, Kyu was ready and hopefully Hinata's Cheshire was too. They were hot on their trail, the Bunshin decoy had only lasted so long. Along with Tashira's Hyper Beam, it gave them the necessary window. Tough maybe they could've kept the damage rate a little lower, oh well, no use pondering the what-ifs.
"Yue, you ready?" Naruto asked, sounds of approaching hound Pokégirls barked in the distance followed by OfficerJennys. Too weak for a Bunshin Naruto opted to wear his red hoodie, Kurenai Yuuhi's body replaced the one Yue was used to seeing of her Tamer.
It was the five of them, three Tamers, and Kyu and Yue, Kitsuto held for their silence, "Alright, you two have to perform a synchronized jump, can you manage that?"
"It shouldn't be a problem. Yue, push your teleportation to your limit, let me worry about synchronizing our energy levels, are you ready?" Kyu looked over.
Yue held back a bite, only nodding with a certain satisfaction within her, everyone grabbed hold.
"This is so cool!" Kitsuto yelled, making the rest sweat-drop.
"There up ahead!" Flashlights blazed in the distant night.
Altogether they disappeared; the combined teleportation technique landed them upon the nearest mountaintop... Twenty miles ahead of the border, and if that didn't lose them, then the fact that they knew nothing of their appearances ought to help.

"Still can't believe that worked." Tashira muttered. A new day, but yesterday's mindset.
Myrel glanced at Tashira out of the corner of her eye, having heard her just mumble about logistics for the past ten minutes, rolled her eyes.
"I mean that was a stupid plan, the odds of it working were... low." Tashira finished with a confused frown, in all retrospect the plan shouldn't have worked, and yet here they were the next day walking the path along the grass for miles.
Ignoring her denial, Kiya moved the topic forward, "Hey, Kitstuo- How long 'til we get there!" Her feet were long past sore; she didn't particularly like walking for days at a time.
Kitsuto glanced and grinned, "Just beyond the hill, give or take a mile away."
Kiya's fur bushed up in urgency, turning to Naruto her ears were attentive, "We should run!"
"I don't wanna." He replied with a taunting smile, Kiya's tail twitched, and then she asked again. Naruto refused, then she asked again, then again... then again, "Can we run- can we run- can we run- can we run-" Hoping to just annoy him enough that he'd give in.
"Kiya!" Tashira snapped.
Myrel tilted her head, slightly amused, yet confused as she watched a Kitsune provoke and jest with a Dragon-type. Honestly she never witnessed such a thing before.
Hinata covered her mouth and laughed at the childish back and forth as Kiya proceeded to bring Tashira into the banter, toying with the Dracass.
"Check it out!" Kitsuto bolstered energetically.
Tashira was holding Kiya up in the air by the cloth of her shirt, and Kiya having her tongue stuck out dauntingly, both paused and turned to Kitsuto. They were on top of the hill, setting the Kitsune down they turned, and Kiya's mouth promptly dropped.
"So beautiful." Kiya cried, her eyes bulging and watery.
Naruto sweatdropped, "Oi Kiya, the village is over here."
"But the river's going that way." Kiya droned as if hypnotized by how it'd feel to soak in that river, regardless of temperature.
Shaking his head Naruto turned to look at Kitsuto's "Home" down four miles along the path, the village itself wasn't of grand size, one-third of what Konoha was. However there was something that stuck out about the village... it looked more like a miniature city rather than a village.
Myrel crossed her arms, brows rising, pleasantly surprised at the size Kitsuto's 'Village' was, "This is where you live?" She asked to which Kitsuto nodded.
Hinata looked at the traffic the pathway was currently hauling in and out the village gates: Farmers, tamers, Pokégirls, miners, cargo, wagons, shipments of many varieties, and was that a bounty-hunter?
Hinata narrowed her eyes; even without her Byakugan she could see a PokéCenter, a hospital, a travel station, Pokégirl stables, a PokéGym? There were many more large buildings that Hinata couldn't identify to the human eye, but she assumed, stores, restaurants, police stations, and bounty-check ins were also present.
There was one thing that anyone could spot though, within the village/town, on top of the hill rested a rather sizable mansion and a few neighboring buildings beside it, a black gate surrounded the buildings, was that someone's home?
Naruto appeared to be thinking the same thing she was, "Kitsuto what the heck is all this? What's with all the people?" Naruto asked, amazed, yet confused.
"I thought you said you and Jiroshi lived here out in the wild. You didn't mention anything about living in a town." Hinata brought up, now suspicious.
Kitsuto turned away from the busy attraction, now surprised, "Well... you never specified. I said we lived in Crescent Moon league away from the large towns... Come, I'll explain on the way."
"What the- That's a big village!" Kiya interrupted, taking her eyes away from the river she now focused on the town down the pathway.
Tashira rolled her eyes, looking back to Kitsuto for an explanation, Yue wagged her tail curiously.
"As I said, Jiroshi is a very famous and rich Pokégirl-master," Kitsuto began, resting his arms behind his head, "He said he was planning on building a home for him, me and our Pokégirls out here. But then one of Jiroshi's Pokégirls discovered caverns within some those mountains over there filled with evolution stones and other resources, which was perfect for mining.
"His Pokégirls talked him into starting a mining station over there, there had to be a place to bring the materials in and shipped out; our home was the closest so he built a factory meant to process the materials and then ship them out to where towns and cities in the league requested them.
"With all the evolution stones, and Pokégirls; Tourists and Tamers were attracted to the area. They needed places to rest, to eat, and eventually supplies to buy, so there came the creation of stores, restaurants, and apartments for rent.
"Due to the large amount of ferals that roamed the mountains, precautions had to be considered, the protection of the people and our home. Tamers volunteered to defend the village, and we built homes, soon a police department was established, bounty-stations for the dangerous high-leveled ferals; Bounty-hunters came over, police officers were hired... and it just kept on building and building and so Jiroshi's home basically just became a small town." Kitsuto finished, then laughed awkwardly, "Now he couldn't go poor even if he wanted to."
Myrel's mouth twitched, whenever she thought of a rich man, it was usually her previous tamer's face, acting stuck-up and above everyone... but Kitsuto didn't.
Myrel looked over to Naruto... and they were related?
Naruto and Hinata blanched, Jiroshi built his own town, maybe not intentionally, but nonetheless it was here.
Kitsuto turned to them, "I know what you're thinking, and no he isn't 'Hokage' of the town. He's just like... their role model I guess. Still this is a pretty small town compared to other towns, and even holds less people than villages; at least a few thousand people live here, three at least."
"How many Pokégirls live here?" Yue asked.
"Five thousand at the least." Kitsuto replied, "And here we are."
Standing on the side of the road in front of the town entrance Naruto and Hinata watched as wagons, Tamers, and Pokégirls all passed in and out of town, tourists, police patrols, and a bounty-hunter heading out.
The blond counterpart finally picked his jaw off the ground, and grinned, "That is so awesome, -tebayo!" Naruto yelled.
Kitsuto laughed, waving them in, "Come on, I'll give you the tour. I'll even show you one of the best ramen restaurants we have."
Naruto's eyes couldn't have gotten any bigger, "RAMEN! Now that's some serious motivation! Come on Hinata, Kiya, girls let's go!"
"So I'm just 'girl' now huh?" Tashira huffed, watching as Naruto proceeded to metaphorically prematurely ejaculate into his pants, his behavior going beyond obsessive to near addictive at the thought of Ramen.
"What the hell's wrong with him?" Myrel muttered, her eyes watching as he acted even more idiotic than his normal self, so much so it kind of crept her out.
"That's just Naruto's way of saying he's hungry." Kiya giggled, Myrel looked at her incredulously, "Like that?" she felt the need to point at him just to point out how crazy he was acting, but Kiya only giggled even more.
Tashira felt Yue tug at her shirt, "What's the matter with Naruto?" She asked worriedly, never seeing Naruto bounce around so energetically before that it seemed like he would begin streaking in a euphoric high any minute now.
The Alpha raised a brow at the question, and then looked back to Naruto who had his arms around Hinata, and humped her from the side, at least from what she could make out, as he rocked her back and forth and laughed... Hinata's eyes were closed and she had a very strange... smile on her face as she let Naruto hug her.
Tashira shook her head at his hopelessness, "Everything..." The Dracass sweatdropped as she slowly tried to come to terms that this was one of her role models.
TLTLTLT
Naruto, Hinata, and their Pokégirls eyes all took in their surroundings as they walked the main road of the city, so much activity going on and the streets were almost filled.
"The main road leads up to my master's house, up on top of the summit of the village." Kitsuto explained, pointing up to the road leading up a grass hill to a large mansion in the distance.
"Seriously, stop calling it a village." Naruto repeated every time Kitsuto did so, the teen shrugged.
Hinata chimed in curiously, "Isn't Konoha three times bigger Naruto? But we still call it a village."
Naruto paused, "Oh yeah, hey! When we get back we could tell Tsunade to call it a city!" Hinata laughed.
"Konoha?" Myrel asked, only for Kiya to wave her off.
Kitsuto proceeded to tell the group the types of things you could do in the village, "Right there's our library, oh- Over there's the Cathedral."
"Cathedral?" Yue asked.
Nodding he continued, "Yeah, that's where all the Shrine Maiden's go for prayer, and any Shrine Maiden anyone here possess pretty much goes there."
"Well that was thoughtful." Hinata said.
Kitsuto scratched his cheek and grinned, "Jiroshi thinks of all the needs the people may want." He replied.
"Is that why he built that?" Tashira muttered, pointing a thumb to another building, one titled "PokeXXX Entertainment" Tashira raised a brow when Kitsuto looked embarrassed, "I'm guessing that's where you can also buy many of his homemade videos huh?" Tashira joked, Yue grinned and Kiya giggled.
Lowering his head he just nodded, "Uh, anyway-" He continued, Naruto, and Hinata's faces red as they looked away from the store, Kitsuto continued with the tour.
Traveling through the city, Kitsuto proceeded to introduce them to his home, and even brought them to his favorite Ramen restaurant, which was where they spent most of their time.
By the time they had finally walked the road up the hill to his home the sun was about to rest, the sky colored a multitude of vast sun settling colors.
They stopped at a black gate, at the side of the gate was a set of precautionary security, quickly Kitsuto put in his thumb print on the scanner, typed in the pass-code, a quick scan of his eye, and a voice identifier Naruto, Hinata and the four Pokégirls behind them sweatdropped.
Once the gate slid to the sides, Kitsuto looked back, "... What? Jiroshi gets paranoid sometimes."
"Sometimes?" Naruto blinked.
Kitsuto released a happy sigh, "Good to be home, well let's go."
Naruto, Hinata and their gather of Pokégirls walked behind Kitsuto in silent awe, Jiroshi's home was a grand collection: A large mansion sat in the middle of five or six acres, four or five other similar sized buildings surrounded the mansion from what Hinata could see.
The long main walkway from the entrance of the town to the entrance of the mansion arched up towards the house and curved around a small pond, cutting through yards of perfectly mowed grass.
Naruto turned to look around the place; the main and largest building stood the Mansion, four stories high and had a shocking width to the building.
To the left, what Naruto believed to be a temple, to the right held a dojo, and the building beside it Naruto was unsure of what the building contained, but from looking in the glass doors Naruto could only guess it was a miniature PokéCenter, and beyond the unseen acres Naruto could only assume were training courtyards, gardens and the unknown.
As they walked on the cobblestone path to the mansion, Naruto's eyes wandered and couldn't help but notice Pokégirls either lazing around, entering the temple or exiting the dojo, a lot of them were either common or uncommon types, and by Naruto's count there were ten, nowhere near Jiroshi's age...
"Damn." Kiya and Naruto whispered in unison.
"Nice isn't it?" the silver-haired Tamer asked, a large grin on his whiskered face.
"What's with these Pokégirls?" Tashira muttered under her breath uncomfortably, feeling amused eyes watching her figure as she walked; Tashira was beginning to think that training wasn't the only thing these Pokégirls learned from their Harem Master.
"Don't make eye contact; they're liable to jump you if you lead them on." Kitsuto joked, earning a raised brow from the Dracass.
Hinata turned to the green-eyed teen, "This is quite a place your master has."
"It's big I know." Kitsuto glanced to Hinata before shrugging, "We all got our own rooms," He gestured to the mansion, then turned his attention to the whole home completely "A dojo, the gardens, the courtyard, a temple, a swimming pool... you get the idea. The old man wanted to make sure there was enough room for his Pokégirls, and any future ones to come instead of just sticking them in their pokeballs- Dammit, where is the pervert anyway." He grumbled.
Asking for Jiroshi would be faster than just looking for him. Spying one of his teachers sitting on the concrete lining around the pond, Kitsuto made his way toward his teacher, a Wet Elf Hinata identified.
"Isn't it risky to keep aquatic Pokégirls away from a large body of water for a long period of time?" Yue asked skeptically, wanting to know if she lived in that small pond.
Kitsuto chuckled, "There's a huge lake not too far off from here, Jiroshi takes them there once a week or so. Hey Ukoya, where's master Jiroshi at?" He asked as he walked up to her, the Pokégirl in question stared at the boy as he approached her, "Kitsuto, I see you and the girls returned, and with company. I trust your journey was successful, you've found your lingering connection yes?"
Kitsuto smiled and scratched the back of his head, forgetting his manners, "Oh right- uh, this is Naruto and his Kitsune: Kiya; Hinata, her Dracass: Tashira, and Cheshire: Yue. The Dracona is tagging along with them." He explained, each of them either bowed or waved.
Ukoya bowed her head in return, "It is nice to meet you all."
Kitsuto nodded, "Anyway about the connection, that's the main reason I want to know where Jiroshi is." He quickly cut to the chase.
Ukoya blinked, then put a finger to her chin, "That man... hm, I believe he's out back in the garden's." She replied.
Kitsuto grinned, "Thanks a lot Ukoya."
Quickly going around the mansion on concrete tiles, they came to the sight of a large magnificent garden decorated with beds of flowers, a rather large swimming pool, and flowerbeds with an occasional tree, all together taking up a whole acre, and this was just behind the mansion, Naruto was growing increasingly curious what landscape defined the back of the Temple and Dojo.
A long hedge of flowers acted as a fencing to separate the Dojo and Temple backyards; and there sat Jiroshi with two or three Pokégirls on a bed of grass with a picnic laid out, Naruto recognized one of the Pokégirls type: A Hottie, looking similar to the one he summoned if not taller, older and a different shade of color; the second was an Atelesona, and the third being a... green bunny, Kitsuto said it was a Bra-Er Rabbit.
"Oi Naruto, you might wanna ball up Myrel." Kitsuto suggested.
Myrel's brows rose before she narrowed her eyes, "Now hold on, I deserve to hear about this as much as you guys." the thought of being left out as things were being discussed among the group really pissed her off.
"Hmm? Don't wanna be alone~?" Kiya hummed.
Myrel glared, and then huffed.
"Myrel return." Naruto ordered, not really liking how Myrel glared at him, as if expecting him to back her up only to be disappointed by his decision.
He sighed, "Alright let's go."
Kitsuto nodded, "Fine with me." he turned to his master many yards away and waved, "Hey master!" Kitsuto yelled and greeted with a wave, Jiroshi and Pokégirls looked to him in surprise.
Sitting up Jiroshi observed his student in surprise, "Wha? Kitsuto you're back already? I figured you'd be gone for a while." He mumbled, scratching the back of his head as he and his Pokégirls looked at him.
Naruto tilted his head, eyebrows rising, Jiroshi didn't look a day over thirty-five, his hair wasn't as long as Jiraiya's but it was just as spiky, only instead of white hair it was replaced with a deep black, he had golden colored eyes and wearing a dark red kimono with black lining, 'The resemblance is uncanny though, their voice could be just the same, if this one's not a little deeper.'
"He looks really good for his age." Kiya muttered, supposing that the man was over fifty.
While Naruto, Hinata and their Pokégirls looked Jiroshi up and down, Jiroshi seemed to be scanning them over as well, "So... I'm guessing, by the look on your face that your mission went well?" Jiroshi asked.
Kitsuto grinned, "Master, I'd like you meet Naruto Uzumaki."
"This is his friend Hinata, and their Pokégirls Tashira, Yue and Kiya." He introduced, the master turning his eyes to the blond, squinting and then rubbing his jaw before he whispered, "Well I'll be... Kawaki was right, look it Kawana: Whisker marks." Anya and Kawana's brows rising up.
Jiroshi grinned looking between his student and the blond, "They have similarities too."
Naruto blushed under the scrutinizing eye of Jiraiya's counterpart, "It's good to meet you Jiroshi."
Jiroshi nodded, "Ahh, much the same to you boy. So Kitsuto did have a strange spiritual connection I assume... with you Naruto?" He asked, tilting his head he crossed his arms over his chest curiously.
Naruto glanced to Kitsuto, he didn't expect for anyone here other than Kitsuto to know anything about the 'spiritual connection'. Their kin secret was immediately out the window.
"He told you?" Naruto asked nervously.
Jiroshi nodded, "I'm his teacher after all, besides spiritual links aren't uncommon... except usually Pokégirls." He muttered, "Weird." now that he thought about it, he awaited Naruto's answer, "Well?"
Lying wouldn't help at all. Reluctantly, Naruto nodded, "I'm..." A glance to Hinata and she looked at him in a way that encouraged his answer, now smiling he turned to Jiroshi, "I'm Kitsuto's Universal counterpart!"
Simultaneously Jiroshi and the three Pokégirls at his side stared at him with a bemused expression, Jiroshi slowly nodding his head in a disbelieving way, "Right." He agreed.
TLTLTLT
"W-wait, hold on. So he's you from a different Universe?" Jiroshi asked, pointing a finger to the blond and looking to Kitsuto for confirmation, surprise and shock all over his face, having just been given a quick run over of who Naruto and Hinata really were.
"That's right." Kitsuto nodded affirmatively, now serious he observed his master's reaction, and then looked over to his present Pokégirls.
"I'm not his copy." Naruto cut in.
"I was born first." Kitsuto bit back before refocusing on his master.
Naruto and Hinata waited on baited breath; their next few months could go one of two ways depending on how Kitsuto's master responded to the information. Without the teleporter they'd be forced to waste a month traveling, no shelter, or readily fixed food.
Hinata considered trying to bias Jiroshi's decision, an offering, proof, money; all options were being considered as she prepared to open her mouth. Naruto rested his hand on her shoulder, whilst still keeping attention solely on Jiroshi; Hinata paused, and then closed her mouth with a click.
His frog Pokégirl slowly shifted eyes from her Tamer's student, to the counterpart of discussion, him and his female friend and Pokégirls accompanying him.
They didn't look all that impressive, but then neither did Jiroshi at first glance, almost doubtfully she reiterated to the silver-haired teen, "They produced a large clash of energies that was powerful enough to rip a hole within the fabric of reality?" Kawana asked skeptically.
Kitsuto grunted affirmatively, nodding his head to encourage his confirmation, "Kawana, I know they don't look all that tough... but when they're all healed they can show you their power." He negotiated.
Jiroshi, Kawana, Anya and the rest looked interested for a moment, Kitsuto turned to Naruto and shared eye contact, the counterparts' emotions were the same just then, "So please let them stay."
Jiroshi stroked his chin decisively, "Are your Pokégirls trained?" Directly at the two, he said it in a way that didn't ask if they were house-broken.
The two were quiet, shared a look, then Naruto nodded, "Yes sir." Naruto answered calmly. The three then became silent to let all of the new information sink in, coming to terms with it all.
Jiroshi looked to Kawana, Kawana glanced to Anya, and Anya was the first to speak, chuckling as she did, "... Magnificent." So their world was familiar with Chakra, interesting.
Kitsuto smiled at Anya's laugh and continued on to coerce, "Master, he's like Ranma Saotome, the dimensional traveler we saw on the news last year before being sent back to his own world."
Naruto and Hinata perked up, "Wait, what do you mean?" Naruto interrupted, not meaning to sound rude but confused and interested.
Kitsuto waved him off still focused on his master's persuasion, "Don't worry about it, anyway master-" Kitsuto continued as Jiroshi nodded and scratched his head.
"What happened to him?" Hinata cut in as well, there were more universal travelers? But how?
"I'll tell you later." Kitsuto replied, concentrating more on telling Jiroshi the terms of the agreement Naruto and Kitsuto worked out, but still Jiroshi seemed skeptical.
"Hey, hey, hold it there kid. You just met him and you expect me to just nod and agree? I don't even know them officially. I'm gonna have to get to know these guys first, then we can talk about these... terms." He interrupted, massaging the bridge of his nose to prevent a headache from thinking too much, now his brain was overloading.
He pointed a finger to Hinata, "And who's she again?"
Hinata bowed her head, "My name is Hinata Hyuuga, and I'm... one of Naruto's closest friends back where we are from."
Jiroshi made an understandable nod, then his finger went to the blond, "And you? How is it you have those whisker marks on your cheeks anyway. If I understand correctly then your people should be pure-blood humans."
Hinata, and the Pokégirls looked to Naruto; each of them thinking one thing or another, watching as Naruto kind of shrunk back from Kitsuto, Jiroshi and their Pokégirls. Despite the fact that they wouldn't care or know about what exactly the Kyuubi was, it still left him uneasy when on the subject.
Kiya raised a brow; her tail tingled at the thought of Kyuubi. She nudged Naruto to respond.
Instead, "Sir, I'm sorry, but my friend and our Pokégirls are desperately wanting to rest. If you will let us, then during our stay we'll have plenty of time to get to know each other, I mean you're not exactly comfortable around us, despite me being Kitsuto's counterpart. We also kinda don't know you guys personally either. Could we take time to get to know each other first?"
Jiroshi raised a brow, then tilted his head and struggled to hide a grin, a nostalgic expression passed over his features Hinata noticed. Jiroshi looked up, "Heh, alright kid. Although, there is one thing I wanna know?"
Naruto, Hinata, and their three Pokégirls glanced up.
"The look in your eyes before admitting to being Kitsuto's counterpart. From the look I saw in your eyes, you seemed to be trying to hide the fact that you two were from a different world, so why admit it without more hesitation?"
Hinata, Tashira, Yue and Kiya all looked at Naruto; he was Jiraiya's counterpart after all.
Naruto felt a smile tug at his lips, "Pervy sage... I don't know you personally. But I also have a teacher, just like you actually, he is a toad sage. I'd bet anything, that even if I tried my best to conceal our secret, you'd find out before we left, or wouldn't let us leave until we told you. Because pervy sage is exactly the same way, if he wants something, he won't stop pursuing it. And maybe... because I could also see that you are pervy sage's counterpart."
Hinata hoped that Jiroshi's grin meant that Naruto had said something right, "Then it's decided! You can stay. After you guys heal I want to see a demonstration of this 'power' Kitsuto's talking about." He finished with a chuckle.
Jiroshi stuck out his hand, and slowly Hinata took it, "I am Jiroshi, the famous and feared Horned Frog Sage. It's good to meet you kids." Naruto took his hand next and shook it, nodding his head.
Then the two stared at each other longer than was necessary. Naruto continued to stare at him, Kiya blinked as she and Yue shared a confused look, Tashira's brow twitched and everyone else watched.
Jiroshi's eyes shifted strangely, "What?"
Naruto stared oddly, and then looked abashed "Don't you have like a introductory dance or something?"
Jiroshi blinked, wondering if he was serious.
- "Why can't you just introduce yourself like a normal person?" Naruto grumbled.
Jiraiya blinked, then the pervert stared at him, "That's stupid, I'm one of the most notorious Shinobi in all the five nations, a simple handshake can't cut it brat." -
Jiroshi stared at him long enough to determine that Naruto was serious, "No, that's stupid who would dance for an introduction that would make me look crazy."
Naruto held back a smile at the irony, 'This is Jiraiya's counterpart.'
One of Jiroshi's Pokégirls cleared her throat, "So, how long are you guys planning on staying?" Kawana cut in curiously, arms crossed.
"Two weeks at the most." Naruto replied.
Hinata bowed, "Arigatou Gosaimasu~" Hinata paused, it slipped out.
"You're welcome." Jiroshi replied evenly.
Hinata rose up in surprise, "You speak Japanese?" She asked, here in this world, that's what Kitsuto said their language was called.
Jiroshi grinned, "Hai." The black-haired Harem Master scratched his chin ponderously, "I suppose you kids want to make it to Blue League in time for the Poké Saden's Festival huh? I can show you the teleporter after you settle in and shower if you like?" Jiroshi inquired.
"Poké Saden's festival?" Naruto and Hinata chorused.
If Jiroshi heard them, he didn't show it, "It's not a problem. Oi, Anya."
"Yes Jiroshi?"
"Show'em to the guest rooms. We'll talk later Naruto, I wanna know more about this Toad Sage, and I'd also like to know more about you as well Hinata." He grinned, this toad sage sounded like his kind of friend, "In the meantime, I'll relay this information to my Pokégirls so they know what's going on."
Naruto halted the questions in his head for now, so instead he smiled and let Anya lead the way.
Crossing his arms in thought, he watched the group walk away. Turning around Jiroshi brushed by Kitsuto and continued his way around the mansion in consideration; the silver-haired teen released his uneasy breath. Standing there for a minute to let the feeling pass, he then relished in the feeling of accomplishment. Reaching into his case he tossed all his Pokéballs into the air and released them.
"Gah!... Damn it." Naruto winced, struggling more than he would've liked to ease himself into the tub of hot water, his muscles still slightly sore from his fight with Kitsuto.
An image of his body moving a mile in half a minute flashed through his head, 'Less about the fight... it's because of me that I didn't train my body to handle the effects of that kind of speed.' Naruto berated, if it was taking the Furball's chakra this long to repair his torn muscles, it must've damaged his body more than he thought, it ached his body whenever he moved, but thankfully Naruto was well adept at acting like nothing was wrong.
Finally, from the abdomen on down was fully submerged in the tub, Naruto reached over and turned off the faucet then laid back to let his muscles unwind.
In truth, while Kitsuto had hurt him in their fight. A majority of Naruto's pain and injuries were of his own doing, because of his carelessness he ended up helping Kitsuto more than anything else.
Naruto laid his head back, closed his eyes and sighed, 'My muscles were shredded because it couldn't withstand the strain, using my chakra to force my body to keep going was hell on my coils.' That was the fastest Naruto had ever gone, he had neither expected nor prepared his body.
The hot water was slowly starting to feel pleasant, at least the stinging had stopped, and he could feel his muscles growing less tense.
Tapping his finger on the side of the tub he thought about his friend Lee, 'How does he not completely destroy his body?' Despite the fact that Lee had trained in weights for a year, maybe longer, the answer had remained simple: Might Gai.
That's where the difference laid, Hinata and him didn't have an elite Jounin to train them in how to handle the effects of enhanced speed, while extra-large Bushy Brow-sensei did act extremely weird, he was called a Taijutsu Specialist for a reason, years of experience rested on Gai's fit physique.
Naruto and Hinata were on their own, they didn't know what they were doing. Naruto had only seen the surface of Lee's weight training, which was the weight itself. Where Lee and Gai knew exactly what steps to take; they were just walking around in the dark, just adding weight and more weight once they got use to the pressure, but being able to lift a few hundred pounds did not mean that his body could become a blur and be perfectly okay afterwards, his muscles and tendons had felt like it was being pulled apart.
Naruto realized shortly after he had awoken after that fight: Speed meant nothing if he could only use it for ten minutes, 'Jeez. Ten minutes going super speed, a week of constant pain.' In fact... this was the longest he had ever been injured, it was that bad.
He rubbed the bridge of his nose, already feeling a headache begin to form from all this extra thinking. Now he had endangered their Pokégirls, they didn't have demonic chakra that could regenerate their broken bones and muscles within a matter of hours to a few days.
If their Pokégirls released those seals and went all out... they wouldn't last two minutes before their body was useless, and he doubted they'd be moving around by the end of the week like he was now.
'Granted that the medicine we have could speed up the healing process... it'd still take a long while.'
Kiya was too careless, Yue was too protective, and Tashira was temperamental; if any of their triggers were pulled...
He sighed, "Idiot... how could I not see that?" he asked himself, the whole dilemma was staring him in the face this whole time.
Compared to the Bushy-Brow duo, they were just adding more and more weight and not thinking about how their body would react. He needed to figure out a way to climb out of the hole he put his friends in, and the only way he could think of correcting this was to train without weight for a few weeks to get use to the feel of their bodies, control it, then when they were ready, try to slowly control the limits of their speed.
Their Pokégirls now had to hold back... They were going to be devastated.
And on top of those internal problems laid the problems surrounding them, 'Tamers, police, hunter's, and wizards... thugs and criminals, Team Trauma, Sanctuary, Limbec Pirates... Ferals, extremely strong Pokégirls, and even Legendaries...'Naruto's head sunk into the tub until a remaining tuff of blond hair stayed afloat, like a small island in the middle of an ocean.
"..." He occupied himself by blowing bubbles. *pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-*
Click!
*Blurp?* A large confused bubble popped before Naruto raised his head, hearing the sound of a door shutting he looked over, then his cheeks heated up at the sight.
Hinata blinked, standing bare as the day she was born and stared at Naruto who she hadn't seen upon entering, "Oh, Naruto, I didn't see you." she greeted with a nice smile.
"W-what are you doing?" Naruto stuttered, feeling the need to cover his eyes... but didn't.
She looked confused, "Well Yue doesn't like it when me or Tashira go to bed sweaty and stinky. She does have a sensitive nose, she doesn't complain but I know she doesn't like the odor." Hinata explained, "It's the least I can do for all she's done for everyone." She rambled sensitively.
Naruto thought about clarifying his question, but it caught up in his throat and died the moment she turned away, her back was milky smooth with an almost invisible glow going from her shoulders down to her nicely rounded butt and down to her defined athletic legs.
With his eyes so concentrated he couldn't do anything else, so instead he lay there, watching as Hinata giggled, turned away and began to turn the knobs.
Naruto flinched, feeling hot water rain down on him.
His heart sped up for the few minutes he watched Hinata's milky skin and messy hair become drenched in water. Steam danced around her body in a way that reminded him of his nude sexy technique, covering her bare parts before it cleared and his male hormones became aroused at the sight of pink nubs on top of her mounds, and a slit disappearing between her thighs.
Naruto leaned on the lining of the tub and mentally danced with thoughts about Hinata, seeing Hinata put her hands on her neck, throw her head back, and sigh in relaxation, her shiny skin glistened in the light.
So fragile, Naruto was afraid that even if his thoughts got out of hand that she would simply dissolve into a mirage. Innocent Hinata, the girl who use to stutter hello and blush whenever he so much as looked in her direction, now stood before him in a untamed beauty, glistening, angelic but yet so sexy.
Then she paused, turned to Naruto and blinked, "What?"
Naruto refocused and shifted his vision, "Er- Nothing, don't mind me." Right then he realized... he had completely forgotten about the important topic he was previously concentrated on, he berated himself.
"Naruto, it's kind of weird, why are you just staring at me?" She asked quietly, it even brought pleasure to his ears. Now she felt exposed, feeling the need to cover her most important of flesh under Naruto's carnivorous eyes, she averted his gaze and blushed a pink hue, "Perv." she muttered accusingly.
Naruto rubbed the back of his neck and laughed awkwardly, "Sorry, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable."
Hinata tilted her head before giggling, "See something you like?" She hinted, she raised her arms and reached for the ceiling, leaning back as she pretended to stretch, leaving Naruto a blundering mess as he tripped over the retorts in his head.
He grew silent, a shameful blush on his cheeks, "How come you didn't wait until I was done?" Naruto asked curiously.
Hinata lowered her arms and shrugged, "Maybe I wanted someone to talk to, why, do you want me to leave Naruto-kun?" She asked, innocently looking at him knowing what he would say.
Naruto blushed, "You know what I mean!" He grumbled.
A small smile appeared on Hinata's face at the childish banter, "Am I... making things too hot in here?" She asked in a sultry voice, a coy smile on her features, her short hair fell about her face and glistened in a way only she may have been able to pull off beautifully.
Naruto couldn't hold back a small laugh, "N-no, I'm okay." He replied, now he was the one avoiding eye contact.
Hinata tilted her head, and raised her brows, "Naruto what's wrong? It's not like this is the first time you've seen me like this." She pondered as she grabbed a bar of soap and began to cleanse herself, genuine curiosity in her eyes.
"I know that. It's just-... never mind, it's nothing." He looked away and scratched his cheek as he leaned back into his tub.
Hinata raised her brows in worry, what was bothering him? His constant staring at her, and the Pokégirl's bodies this past month, maybe it was his teen hormones finally kicking in, 'He has been acting even weirder this past month and a half...' She dare say that his libido seemed to be increasing as time rolled by, or maybe she just had a dirty mind, maybe his troubled mind wasn't dealing with anything sexual.
Deciding to leave it alone she focused on her own devices. Running a bar of soap over her left shoulder her eyes roamed the bathroom.
It was the most amazing bathroom she had seen since her arrival on this world. Upon entering the bathroom door she had come to a white rugged floor, a sink, cabinets and a toilet. Up further was a sliding door coming to a room-sized shower, the whole floor was porcelain with drains here and there and the porcelain ceiling had holes in it, two knobs were in the wall by the door for the water that would come out of the ceiling, in the left corner of the room was a bathtub with two more knobs and a faucet.
Hinata glanced to Naruto soaking in the bathtub, letting the ceiling shower slowly fill up the tub, nearly falling asleep, "Ne, Naruto-kun?"
"Mm?" He mumbled, eyes still closed.
"Can you teach me the Kage Bunshin?" Hinata asked laced with cute as she kept her body turned from him to expose her naked butt, her head turned looking innocently at Naruto.
Naruto's eyes opened at the request and turned to see the sight of perfect exposure, "Where did that come from?" he mumbled, still staying on topic.
"I want to test something." Hinata answered honestly as she turned to him, still washing herself with the bar of soap.
Naruto looked at her worriedly, "Hinata Kage Bunshin takes up half of the original's chakra, Kakashi-sensei said that it could even kill someone if they used the technique too much. I don't want to be mean, but it's too dangerous for you Hinata." Naruto explained.
Hinata didn't seem at all offended as she looked away and nodded, "That'd be true if I was the same as I was back in Konoha. Naruto-kun haven't you noticed the difference yet." Hinata huffed as she pouted.
Naruto blanched, "Difference?"
Hinata put her hands on her hips in shock and slightly fumed, "Ever since I got my Youki I've been feeling better than ever, hell I couldn't keep up with you in endurance if I didn't have this other chakra." Hinata began, Naruto's eyes widening.
"I... never realized that, sorry Hinata-chan." He admitted apologetically, coming to a realization as he quickly compared the old Hinata with the new one.
"My chakra's increased at least three times as much as before, so I want to see if I can maybe even match you in chakra and the best way to find out is the Kage Bunshin." Hinata finished pleadingly as she put her hands together.
Naruto looked reluctant for a moment before coming to a decision, if only for Hinata's sake, "Okay, if you put it that way, I'll do it for you Hinata-chan."
Hinata smiled triumphantly, already thinking of the benefits the jutsu would bring, "So. What did Kitsuto say about that dimensional traveler?" Hinata asked.
Naruto looked up for a moment as he mumbled something as if trying to think about what he said "Let me see... After I gave him his Katanas back he told me that scientists were meddling with technology that activated a dimensional portal and accidentally brought a man named Ranma Saotome into this world, they used the machine to send him back."
Hinata blanched, doing a double take, "They have technology for a dimensional portal?" She asked, did that mean that their search was over, that when they were ready they could just tell the governments that they were dimensional travelers as well?
Naruto nodded as he turned to look at the surprised Hyuuga, "He told me it was found forbidden tech from one of Sukebe's bases or something, but they hardly have an inkling on how to work it, bringing Ranma here was an accident he told me."
Hinata tilted her head in confusion, "Then how did they send Ranma Saotome back?" She asked, something about that didn't add up, were the scientists lying, had they kept him? Kitsuto really didn't have a reason to lie, but how could they send him back if they didn't know how to work the machine yet?
"That's what I said; Kitsuto said they didn't release that information. Something about that story is suspicious, and I've been thinking about that since he told me. After we check out the lead in the blue continent, I want to look into this some more. I dunno, something just didn't seem right." Naruto shrugged; maybe he was just being paranoid.
Hinata gave a nod, but would breaking into the facility they had the machine at and looking through their files make them wanted criminals? Best to leave it on hold for now.
Naruto laid back, "In the meantime Jiroshi says he wants to show us the teleporter after we shower." He relayed the information.
Hinata's interest was piqued, "Where is this 'teleporter'?" She asked.
Naruto shrugged a little unknowingly, "He said at the travel station, in a different building in town. He told me that before we could use them, he first had to get permission from Blue league to teleport there." He replied, looking up he let the raining water hit his face.
Unsure, Hinata asked, "And, what did Kitsuto say about this Poké Saden's festival?" She asked, there had to be some good news.
Naruto gave a comical smile, "Well he said it was a festival specifically for Pokégirls." he replied.
Hinata scrubbed her hair, confusion overriding her, "So how does that work?"
Naruto scratched his chin, "Tamers who join up for the festival let out their Pokégirls and the Pokégirls can decide if they want to stay with their Tamer or choose a new Tamer out of all the ones who joined, they have all day and there's also food and other festival stuff."
Hinata's brows went up in surprise, "That sounds interesting. Can we join the Poké Saden's festival when we get to Blue league Naruto-kun?"
Naruto hummed to himself for a moment in consideration, "... Sure, we could see if Kiya, Tashira and Yue really want to be with us and not just because they have to." Naruto muttered jokingly.
Hinata tilted her head; she couldn't imagine any of them leaving them for a new Tamer after all they went through.
"What about Myrel?" Hinata asked.
"She's not my Pokégirl remember." Naruto reminded.
"What are you going to do about her?" Hinata pestered. Myrel still hadn't come around, and they couldn't let her tag along any longer. Like during training, it'd definitely lead to demands on who they actually were, not to mention she could get killed when things started to get dicey.
Naruto's eyes creaked open, "I don't want to talk about that."
"If she doesn't join a harem, we'll have to let her go. We can't train or talk about our plans if she's tagging along." Hinata pressured.
"She can go into her pokéball."
"I think they can hear out of those things." Hinata replied.
"Probably. Myrel just has me confused, I really don't know what I'm gonna do with her." he muttered in frustration, now that he thought about it.
Hinata raised a brow; purposefully she brought the bar of soap down in between her chest. Naruto's creaked eyes opened to their length at the action, watching Hinata tend to her breasts.
He stared for a long while before he quickly came to a decision, "... Fine. I'll ask if she wants to join the Poké Saden's festival, if she stays then I get all the time I need." Naruto finished his eyes watching Hinata's chest as she ran over her mounds with the soap.
Naruto smirked, "You missed a spot." now playing the same game she was.
She challenged his smirk with her own, one that Naruto knew the old Hinata wouldn't dream of doing, "I doubt that perv-kun." She teased, the soap pushed between her supple breasts, and soon down her abdomen, traveling where many soaps loved to go.
With a sudden change of course, Naruto's jaw dropped at the tease, the bar of soap now trailing down her left thigh. Hinata giggled, "Perv-kun you're so gullible." she teased as she put her hands on her thighs and pushed her breasts together between her arms.
Naruto grinned, the lovely valley she displayed, glistened, so gentle, so erotic. Naruto thought about climbing out of the tub at that moment, "I'd be even more gullible if you turned around." He grinned.
Hinata's smile widened as she turned her body around exposing her butt to the pervy teen, "You mean... like this perv-kun?" she teased as her butt tossed left to right, Naruto's eyes waved back and forth-
*Bang, bang!* Naruto and Hinata looked up curiously.
"Naruto~! You in there?" Kiya whined through the door, "Just go in and check Kiya-chan." Yue's voice suggested.
Hinata and Naruto stopped themselves as Yue and Kiya opened the door, "Hinata!" Yue mewed, seeing Hinata's figure through the glass.
Shedding her clothes immediately she teleported through the glass wall and next to Hinata, the next second Yue was hugging her and rubbing her face into the teen's bust.
"Yue-chan~..." Hinata sighed as she patted the top of the Cheshire's head.
Kiya opened the sliding door, a pout on her vulpine face as she spotted Naruto's surprised face, "Naruto! I've been looking everywhere for you! Can you wash my fur, it's all frizzy!" Kiya whined, her fur in a bush, upon stepping into the shower, her fur began to go down.
Naruto stared for a moment to sort out what just happened, then he gave a weary smile, sitting up he made room for her within the tub, "Alright Kiya."
She yipped as she ran across the floor, almost slipped, and then ran some more before she jumped into the tub with him.
Hinata and Naruto shared a look.
Another time...
"Ahh... Damn that's better." Tashira sighed, a large towel wrapped around her bust, having been worked up for the past few weeks it was refreshing to just lay back and soak her tension away every now and then.
Using a second towel she was working on drying her mid-back length black hair as she traveled to the room Jiroshi was gracious enough to let Hinata and her Pokégirls stay in, Naruto, Kiya and Myrel's room was only down the hall a few rooms down, high on the top fourth floor.
Tashira raised a brow, "Naruto... and Hinata." She muttered, a strange thought coming to mind, but as soon as it came it had left and she found herself reaching out for the door to their room-
"-But I don't want Naruto and Hinata to leave." Kiya's voice was faint but Tashira heard it and her hand stopped on the handle.
"That's still a long way ahead Kiya-chan." Yue's voice replied.
Tashira's eyes widened slightly before her mind drifted to the two Tamers for a short moment.
"I know, but the thought of them leaving back to their..." Kiya left off, Tashira's ears picking up the sound of Yue mewing in agreement, "What are you gonna do when that time does come?" Kiya asked.
Tashira opened the door, not wanting to hear Yue's answer, and upon entrance she paused, her brows rising at the sight of Kiya laying on their queen bed on her stomach whilst laying her head on her folded arms completely naked while doing so.
Yue was on her hands and knees with her tongue running up the back of Kiya's left thigh, Tashira also noted that the Cheshire was also nude.
They didn't seem to mind her sudden intrusion much, but they did acknowledge her, "Did you have a nice bath Tashira-chan?" Yue asked, Kiya's eyes opening, both Yue and Kiya glanced to the Dracona before Yue proceeded grooming her friend.
Tashira spied two damp towels cast to the floor. Wrinkling her nose at the sight of Yue's tongue running along Kiya's upper back thigh the thought of Kiya smelling like Yue's morning breath came into her head.
Blowing the thought away she shook her head, she still needed to get dressed.
Throwing her towel to the couch she walked to the wardrobe full of clothing ranging from bathing suits to Pj's.
"Refreshing." Tashira replied as she opened the wardrobe, "Where's Naruto and Hinata?" She hadn't seen them since they left for a shower, it wasn't surprising but she was curious where they went.
Kiya smiled, "They're checking out the teleporter with Kitsuto and Jiroshi, Jiroshi said he's going to request clearance for teleportation with the travel station somewhere in the Blue continent." The Kitsune answered blissfully.
A moment later her tail spasmed, "Oh, right there Yue."
Tashira's brow twitched, unable to hold in her disgust at the sight of Yue's saliva dripping tongue, "Yue, did you brush your teeth?"
"Yes? Do you want another bath?" Yue asked, turning to look at her superior with a sly smile, she was beginning to pick up Kiya's habits.
Tashira snorted at the thought, "Keep it in your mouth. You lick me enough in your sleep." Tashira muttered before pulling out a gray tank top and cotton panties for her choice of sleepwear, her hand reaching for a pair of baggy sweatpants, Tashira found that she liked the tank-tops more as they didn't rip when she transformed, more comforting as well.
Kiya giggled, "Yue sleep licks."
Yue smiled in return with a small blush, "One time, when me and Tashira-chan were sleeping I had suckled her nipple throughout the whole night, next morning her whole left breast at the center was purple, Nya." she mewed as they both started to giggle.
Grumbling Tashira pulled her tank top down and changed topic, "If Kiya stinks for the rest of the night I'll-"
"Tashira-chan you know I brushed my teeth." Yue answered with a smile.
"Yeah whatever."
Kiya shivered as she wiggled her butt, her tail rising up to lay against her back to give Yue room to begin on her tush, yipping at the feel of Yue's tongue run along her right butt cheek, occasionally the Cheshire nipped her fur.
Sliding into a pair of panties and pulling up the sweat pants Tashira shrugged, "Don't know why you're bathing her when you both just took a shower." Tashira said as she closed the wardrobe.
The Cheshire wagged her tail, her tongue running along the cleft of the Kitsune's butt cheeks before moving to begin on Kiya's left side, "It's a feline thing to want to clean her sisters." Yue replied as Kiya moaned.
Tashira stared for a bit, watching Yue lap up Kiya's damp furred ass, "How's the fur taste?" The red-eyed Alpha asked to try and amuse herself, somewhat curious.
"Like Pokégirl shampoo." Yue replied without complaint on the taste, "Strawberry flavored." Yue added.
"Mm, Jiroshi's got a collection of shampoo in the cabinets." Kiya moaned.
"Just don't be coughing up a furball tonight." Tashira stated before heading for the door.
"Ne, Tashira-chan where you going?" Kiya asked in sudden interest Yue looking as well.
"I'm gonna have a talk with the Dracona." She replied humorously.
"Dressed like that? Good luck." Kiya muttered, although she did have more maneuverability in those sweats. But that tank top, thin fabric and perky nipples didn't go together in a serious atmosphere, it would cause for an exchange of dignity, no doubt Jiroshi's Pokégirls would run into her out there.
Then again Tashira had a good thing going about not caring about people... well anyone who wasn't with Naruto and Hinata.
Still what if she got jumped, Kitsuto said Jiroshi's Pokégirls were easily aroused and Yue didn't want to find Tashira being dominated by Jiroshi's Pokégirls in the hallway.
Yue paused her work and narrowed her eyes, "Tashira-chan you know Naruto and Hinata wouldn't like it if you got into a fight with her."
Tashira rolled her eyes, "I'm not going to fight her... Just a little spar, who knows what might happen? After all sparring can have nasty outcomes, everyone knows that." All Tashira needed to do was attack the girl's pride then she'd fall into her hands.
"Clear it with the masters first." Yue warned.
"Like they'll agree, someone needs to put her in her place; Naruto and Hinata aren't going to do that if Myrel doesn't want to be a part of either of their harems." Tashira argued.
"She's got a point." Kiya mumbled.
"You'll be going against Naruto and Hinata's wishes and I don't like that." Yue said, sitting up the Cheshire meowed loudly for an extra protest.
Tashira was silent for a chilling second, "Don't tell them Yue." Tashira stated simply.
The Cheshire's tail perked up at the indirect threat, "Or what, you'll kick my ass?" Yue asked teleporting in front of the taller Pokégirl.
Hard eyes went to the figure blocking her exit and for a moment, Tashira and Yue locked gazes for an eternity, "... Yue, I'm the Alpha. I order you to move." Tashira commanded.
"An Alpha disobeying her master, I'm the Beta and I'm supposed to keep you in line when you're out of it." Yue countered.
"Hinata hasn't declared a need for a Beta." Tashira growled.
"We both know she'd approve if I asked for the position, Nya?" Yue replied innocently.
Tashira stared down at her with piercing red-eyed fury as she went over her options in her head and quickly struck Yue's weak points, "... I'll cuddle with you." she negotiated; Kami knew Yue's been wanting that ever since Yue laid eyes on her nude body.
Yue's eyes widened as she stood there, a chance to finally cuddle with the serious Dracass while she was conscious, "Ah- You're... serious about this." Yue concluded.
"..." Was her reply.
Yue stood frozen for a long agonizing minute with Tashira and Kiya staring at her. Deciding it wasn't worth it for just one cuddling session Yue's resolve hardened, "Not good enough Tashira." Yue answered without the -chan suffix causing Kiya to gasp.
Tashira scowled, "Tch fine, any time you want."
Yue's tail spasmed and her ears stood straight up as she released a surprise and high-pitched meow at Tashira's perseverance to get to Myrel.
Calming herself Yue raised a brow, "Why do you care anyway? She's none of our concern if she's not going to be in our Tamer's harems."
Kiya smiled, "I kinda want to be the first to kick her ass, but it's probably a draconic thing, me and Yue will go to watch."
"Kiya-chan!" Yue gasped.
The Kitsune pointed to her back, "Now get back here and finish my bath." Kiya ordered, then paused before adding, "Says the other Alpha."
Looking back at Tashira for a few short moments Yue was quiet for another minute to consider the terms. Yue's eyes got real big and sparkly then, "You'll cuddle with me anytime I want? -Nyyya?" She mewed in question.
Tashira's left eyelash twitched, "... Yes." Tashira answered hesitantly.
Yue's eyes got just a little bigger, staring into Tashira's soul as she tried to milk the deal dry, "And you'll make an effort to cuddle back?" Yue asked through teary soul-piercing orbs.
Tashira stared for a few long seconds, "I... Promise... Yue." Tashira slowly ground out through closed teeth.
Satisfied, Yue's tail gave a few excited wags, "The Beta accepts your terms Tashira the Alpha." the Cheshire agreed formally, if only to clear the atmosphere.
"You're not the Beta until Hinata officially says you are, if she needs one." Tashira growled in annoyance, rolling her eyes.
Yue crossed her arms and pouted, "I'm letting you do this without Hinata-chan's knowing, you could at least smile," Yue teleported back to the bed, "Just... please don't leave any scars or seriously-"
"Don't worry." Tashira cut off, turning to the door.
Kiya huffed, "Man, if anyone was gonna rip her a new one, I wanted to be the one to do it. You know, as a fellow harem sister." Kiya finished with a nod, while Myrel technically was at a higher level than them, they each had no doubt they could all kick her ass. She didn't have any experience with real combat like they had been trained in; Myrel would just take longer to take down was all.
"Kiya-chan, Myrel has not yet agreed to be a part of Naruto-kun's harem. So you aren't Harem sisters just yet." Yue reminded.
The Kitsune smiled lecherously, "Give it time, you'll see." Kiya replied before she snickered, "Seriously Yue, cuddling?"
Without a word Tashira left after she was sure the seriousness had evaporated.
*Creak*
Myrel's eyes widened and her jaw slackened, "Damn I'm impressed." She muttered, reaching into the fridge she picked out the many different types of meat her eyes found, not everything, but she grabbed a lot.
Myrel shrugged, what did it matter, the whole fridge was the size of a damn queen-sized bed anyway, besides Jiroshi's Pokégirl Kawana said she could help herself. Turning around she laid the meat on the porcelain counter.
The past week all she had were fruit, vegetables and other canned food Hinata had prepared during camp. Her stomach was aching for some meat, her hands moved fast: Steak in a skillet on the stove, and turkey in the microwave.
Now all she had to do was wait; ten, and twenty minutes... still too damn long. Leaning against the counter, Myrel crossed her arms and stared at the microwave, the turkey would be done first.
Her mouth watered inside, as each second ticked by the aroma of meat continuously grew stronger. Her stomach grumbled, she hadn't eaten anything at the Ramen restaurant because she had completely gotten fed up with non-meaty foods, so she hadn't eaten all day.
Silence layered the kitchen as she waited, for a minute her eyes marveled at the designs and the noticeably large sizes of the kitchen and dining room before she shrugged, "Nice place." She muttered.
There was four stoves, three sinks, multiple cabinets, large counters and in the dining room laid an oval table enough for forty people. A sweat drop developed on the Dracona's head, 'Cooking must be a bitch every morning, not to mention washing dishes.'
Turning back to the microwave Myrel waited... tapped her finger on her bicep and played a small beat... Nine minutes and thirty seconds left.
A visible tick-mark showed on the Dracona's face, why did time have to move so damn slow?
One of Jiroshi's Pokégirls walked in, grabbed a bag of jerky from the cabinet, stared at her for a few seconds, shrugged and left.
Closing her eyes she calmed herself, look at the positives... she was alone; Naruto and Hinata were off at the Teleporter with Jiroshi. Violet eyes traveled to the window, 'And now it's night.' she thought.
It was nighttime and yet Naruto and Hinata thought it so important to set the transporters as soon as possible. Myrel hummed to herself, occupying herself with the topic. What was so urgent about getting to Blue league? What did they have to do that was so important?
Myrel tapped the side of her head, "Let's see, what goes on in Blue League." Farming, PokéGym battles... There was also the Poké-Saden's festival wasn't there? At least two weeks from now if she remembered correctly.
"That must be why, more Pokégirls." She assumed, but then again Naruto wasn't like normal Tamer's, what would be the point of going to the Poké-Saden's festival so urgently then? Unless... it was for her maybe?
Violently she shook her head, 'No, Not this again, Naruto's most likely doing it for some other gain. They were heading to Blue League before my pokéball ever fell into his hands.' She thought, refusing to put Naruto in that light like she had when she was bordering ferality, on and on about how he was so thoughtful and caring- Bullshit!
She blushed, Naruto... as a matter of fact no one knew that she had found out it was Naruto... the one who tamed her. She had let her guard down, vulnerable and nearing a breakdown of tears Naruto had taken advantage of her.
An image of Naruto's back, bandaged and bloody, flowed through her mind just then, while herself remained unscathed, hell she felt better than the night before even, so who really took advantage of who?
She could only remember parts of it and none of it about Naruto's condition during it.
"What if it was me who..." She mumbled, staring at the tiled counter she was at a loss for words. She was on top wasn't she? Naruto was the physically weak one, crippled, and clueless of her ferality from what she had seen. What if he had just been checking up on her, and she...
'That's crazy, I wouldn't have.' She thought, but if she did, then why would Naruto keep quiet? Maybe he had been thoughtful all along, sparing her of the humiliation.
She groaned, her outside expression was that of blatant boredom, but on the inside her emotions were quite different, she hated thinking about how she or Naruto felt about the other, mostly because she didn't want to be a part of his harem, fuck! It was like he was a whirlpool, or a hurricane, sucking her in no matter how hard she tried to resist.
"Hmm." She hummed, she frowned and stared ahead expressionlessly in thought.
- "Oh! Harder!" -
Myrel stared at the tiled counter in boredom, her finger tapping her bicep as patiently as possible.
- "Rraah, aah-aah-ah-ah More!" -
Slowly Myrel's cheeks reddened, her frown twitched. She actually felt strong.
- "Nng... We should slow dow-" "You need to speed up!" -
The memory, the memory of feeling dominant. Never had her previous tamers given her that satisfaction, she hated being submissive, and that night was the first time ever in her whole life she had felt... in control.
- "You need to speed up!" -
She reveled in the memory, 'What the hell's wrong with me.'
Myrel blinked, her cheeks were hot, and she frowned at the thoughts and memories in her head. That was it; there couldn't have been any other answer, all the evidence pointed towards her.
Could it possibly be true, "I was the one... I raped Naruto." She whispered, it didn't even sound right coming from her lips. Suddenly she felt very... dirty. How could she have done such a thing! Her, an elegant walking beauty, where any man wanted to jump her, could have anyone she wanted, was so desperate enough as to rape a teenager, still a beginning Tamer!
*Ting!*
Or maybe...
Myrel tilted her head: His cerulean blue eyes, blond hair, unique whisker marks among him and his 'brother', muscular; caring, seemingly rich family, powerful, he probably had blood gifts as well, there was also that Jutsu technique.
He had all of these things, but as his personality would allow it, Myrel could dominate him, a human. For years she was the one on the receiving end of all the commands in the bedroom...
Raising her brows her eyes scanned the kitchen and the dining room, ensuring no one was near. She didn't refuse the proceeding memories that began to flood her mind.
The thoughts of a male writhing under her, submissive to her beauty, the way it was meant to be in the bedroom, whatever she wanted she could have there... Naruto filled that role perfectly, her sex bitch in light terms.
Myrel chuckled, "Cute." She muttered. Despite how she acted, she found him kind of amusing, funny in personality.
- Grabbing onto his shoulders red nail marks were engraved into his skin, he didn't seem to care, or if he did, then she didn't. And he continued. He deep-ended the voluptuous woman until she couldn't decide to have her orgasm now or later. Her mind a helplessly jumbled mess, she blindly met his thrusts in a desperate attempt to feel as much of his pleasure as humanly possible. Myrel created abrasions on his back that would have been mistaken for being attacked by a group of ferals, her nails nearly drawing blood as she raked them hard up his hot, dampened skin. "RRAhhh! YES, Yes! Just like that!" -
Maybe she was looking at this all the wrong way. She was an elegant work of beauty, she could have any man she wanted, but how many of them would allow her to be in control in bed?
Myrel paused her sexual thoughts; to join Naruto... she had to know his story first.
- He looked at the Dracona before him, "Myrel, I can't exactly tell you everything about me because you don't accept me as your Tamer, so I can't really tell a Pokégirl that doesn't really trust me, about me." He explained carefully.
She growled at him.
He hurried to explain further, "But, also even if I did tell you, you probably wouldn't believe anything I said. And I am not exactly in the condition to prove what I'm telling you is true."
She seemed to consider it, "How so?" She asked.
"Like if I told you I was very good at holding my own against Pokégirls. I couldn't exactly show you physically ya know?" He used as an 'Example'. As predicted she snorted at the idea, but still knew what he was trying to say, he was a bandaged bleeding mess.
"Alright, so where are you getting at?" She muttered quizzically.
"What I'm saying is how about we just postpone this whole "Introductions" speech for the time being. At least until I'm healed!" Naruto proposed. -
Naruto had said that he would show her what he could do when he was healed.
Silently Myrel crossed her arms and thought about it seriously, 'We're going to be here for two weeks, he should be healed by then... I'll confront him about this then.' she planned.
Naruto being a bitch in bed was one thing, but being a bitch all around wouldn't do. If he turned out to be strong, if he was all that she wanted him to be she could do it, she could allow him their bond.
It was just his damn age that bothered her, she couldn't remember, on the night of her taming did he use his shape-changing technique to change the size of his 'appendage', regardless if he could satisfy her like that did it matter how he did it?
That would be a plus then: powerful, protective, abilities, and yet caring, thoughtful, romantic; In the bedroom she could turn her fantasies into a reality, the Tamer who could take the form of anyone he wanted and do as she wanted, be as rough or as gentle as she wanted.
She felt strange, she couldn't help but smile.
Naruto, he was debatable. But he wasn't going to be her slave she knew that, he was strong willed and too stubborn for that, and the current relationship she had with Kiya wouldn't do her any good in his eyes. She supposed he also liked Hinata and her harem, and the relationship Myrel had with those three didn't score her any points either.
Great, so even if he was all she wanted, he probably wouldn't take her if everyone with him said no. Which meant... she had to play nice with the girls.
She visibly showed disgust at the idea. Yue and Hinata she could tolerate, but that un-mannered Draconic. She admitted that their dislike for each other wasn't established until she made the first show of disgust toward Tashira when she had first saw her.
She had seen Tashira arrive with Hinata, Yue and Kiya; the way she carried herself and her mannerisms absolutely disgusted her, perhaps the way Tashira acted affected her more than the others because she was also Draconic, that Dracass was giving her a bad reputation.
Myrel was a Draconic and while strong, was also very beautiful and no one denied her that, Kiya, Naruto and Hinata have even admitted to her beauty in the past. The way she walked, superior, strong and stunning; Tashira was her opposite, obedient, but a ticking time bomb, and she acted like a feral. It gave all Draconics' a bad images.
It was a shame, Tashira had a pretty face and her figure did well to compliment it; but everything else, her behavior and attitude rendered her potential stale.
That was why she looked down on her, but Tashira was stubborn and was easily angered, it made her look childish. So she challenged the Dracass, to who was superior, Tashira wouldn't attack her without Naruto and Hinata's permission, she even smugly stated that to her when alone with her before.
She didn't insult Yue or Hinata unless Tashira was there to hear it, she could see it made her angry, on some occasions Tashira bit back; Such as when she was bordering ferality that night.
To any Tamer they should've expected such intense dislike between them; it happened to any Pokégirl meeting another of their species that didn't have the same morals as them.
An obedient cat-type hated disrespectful cat-types and so on and so on with Pokégirls of the same kind, there was bound to be friction. Myrel had no doubt that Tashira was disgusted with the way she acted as well.
It was then she realized her turkey had been done for the past three minutes.
Myrel blinked, and then grinned, "Haha-damn!" She laughed, time was faster when you didn't care she noted, quickly she pulled the plate of turkey out of the microwave, still warm.
Grinning she picked up a large piece of turkey, and chowed down, using her hands, the mountain of turkey quickly began to disappear. Inwardly Myrel savored the taste of it, grabbing handfuls at a time.
"I see you have no problem gorging yourself in other people's stuff." A rude voice interrupted.
The Dracona glanced out the side of her vision, already knowing who it was, Myrel couldn't hold back a smirk, speak of the devil. Myrel sported a noticeable mouthful; she raised a brow, and then swallowed, "You just couldn't let me eat?" Myrel asked, then again, looking down at it she realized hardly any was left.
"I was just thinking about you." Myrel stated, looking up to get a good look at Tashira.
Leaning against the wall with her arms crossed Tashira grunted, wearing only a tank top and sweatpants Myrel noted.
"Is there a problem Dracass?" Myrel continued with a teasing smile, a stubborn resolve floated about her, one that clashed with Tashira's, the two dragon-types stared at the other, Violet bore into Blood Red.
"I was wondering if you'd like to have a spar." Tashira replied, an innocent smirk on her face, her voice held no malicious intent, instead it was casual.
Myrel nodded in thought, what was this all of sudden, going against Naruto and Hinata's orders, was she trying to provoke her?
"You seem... tense Tashira." Myrel pointed out as she continued to eat.
"I am tired," Tashira admitted calmly, she walked over to the counter and sat on a stool near Myrel, "We spent days traveling through blood country." she reminded, the static continued to grow thicker, blood red eyes looked her up and down, violet eyes calmly observed in return.
Myrel put down the food on the counter, unease began to build by the mere presence of the Dracass, then she paused, the next moment she merely grunted and focused back on the turkey.
Tashira observed her actions carefully.
Myrel looked up and smirked, picking up a wad of turkey meat and held it up, "Want some... Tashira?" She asked, that was harder to say than she thought, a playing smirk on her lips. She was supposed to try getting along with her, but fuck, the mere presence of the Dracass pissed her off that she couldn't help but think about taunting her.
Tashira just chuckled, and tapped the counter, "No thanks." Silence ensued, Myrel and Tashira kept an eye on the other. Myrel commended Tashira, despite the obvious dislike between the two, she could still remain civil, and there may be hope for her yet.
Myrel looked down to her plate, only a few more pieces left; she shrugged and helped herself to the rest of it. With the last of it gone she leaned back and sighed.
... Fuck it, "You know Tashira, I think I'll take you up on that offer, let's have a spar." Kicking Tashira's ass would be a great way to top off her night, besides; she always wanted to see what Tashira could do.
"Oh Kami you can just feel the tension in here." Kiya muttered, both the Kitsune and Cheshire stepping into the kitchen. Kiya fanned her face, "Damn you can barely breathe in here." She exaggerated, hanging onto Yue, the Cheshire raised a brow at her elder sister's play.
"Kiya." Myrel muttered, deciding to ignore Naruto's alpha she turned to Tashira, "Shall we?"
Tashira nodded as she stood up, "The training courtyard in back of the dojo." She replied, turning to lead the way, Myrel followed.
"You're already going to spar?" Yue inquired.
Tashira nodded with a smirk, "Yeah, don't worry it'll be fun, right Myrel?"
The violet-eyed dragon raised a brow inquisitively, "Dressed like that, you can't be serious?" She laughed at it, "You know it's pretty cool outside right?" She questioned, teasingly she circled the middle of her breasts, gesturing to her nipples.
Tashira chuckled, "Does it matter?"
"I guess not." She shrugged, both of them leaving the kitchen, Yue following as well.
Kiya blinked, the Kitsune looked around, a scent in the air, "What's that-...*Sniff* *Sniff*... Ooh steak!" Kiya grinned.
"Hey, do I smell-"
Kiya turned to see Mika look into the kitchen, "Yeah?" Kiya asked as she picked the large slab of steak off the skillet with her nails.
The Kunimitsu looked to the meat in Kiya's hand.
Kiya looked at Mika, then to the steak, then back, "... Wanna share?" Kiya yipped.
"Heh! You know I always wanted to see what you could do."
"I'll be sure to let you see the full extent of it!" Tashira challenged with a dark smirk.
Myrel raised her brow, she was stronger than Tashira she knew, but still the Dracass didn't seem at all wary, maybe even cocky. The two walked over to the courtyard, an empty platform, the area large enough for a Pokébattle, each corner of the platform had a torch lit.
Tashira walked to one end as Myrel stopped at the other, Yue observed the two cautiously, if Naruto and Hinata saw what was happening...
Two Pokégirls, muscular human females dressed in work out spandex's stood to the side with a water bottle, still sweating before seeing the two dragon-types walk in, interested they glanced to each other before observing the proceedings.
"Whenever you're ready." Tashira muttered.
Myrel snorted, tossed her long-sleeved shirt: Only Jeans and a black t-shirt.
She prepared herself, it had been a while since she had been in a battle, and she watched Tashira at the ready.
She would have to start the first move then? Hmph, Myrel went forward into a jog, Tashira came at her in return, their speeds increasing to a rushing sprint.
Bringing her left shoulder to the front Myrel performed Takedown, Tashira grinned dashing to the left Myrel rushed past her, Tashira grabbed hold of her tail in a vice grip eliciting a yelp. Lifting Myrel off the ground and over her head Tashira slammed her on her back onto the concrete platform.
With a bitter grunt Myrel glared up at Tashira whom looked down at her challengingly.
Tashira morphed into her draconic form, grinning as she lifted her large draconic foot above the Pokégirl's chest.
Myrel's eyes widened, raising her forearms to protect herself.
*... Rumble!*
Mika stopped gnawing at her share of steak, feeling the ground vibrate; her ears flickered before her head snapped up, "What was that?" Looking to Kiya for an answer.
Kiya continued chomping on her meat, "Myrel and Tashira are sparing." She replied with a mouthful.
*... Rumble!*
Fur standing on end Mika narrowed her eyes seriously, "It doesn't sound like a spar among Pokésisters." She commented uneasily.
Kiya's ears perked up, "Wha? Oh no they hate each other." She replied.
"What?" Mika was standing up, "That can't happen without Tamer supervision!" She stated alarmed, a fight between dragon-types, an unfriendly one could destroy this entire complex.
Kiya stared cluelessly, "... Why?"
'She's being serious- rrgh!' Myrel grunted, her figure indented in the concrete as Tashira pushed her draconic foot down on her arms.
Myrel frowned, what was she talking about, this was what she asked for, still the girl was surprisingly strong, 'so this is what she was planning- Rrgh! This is her objective.' Grunting she opened her mouth.
Tashira's eyes widened, quickly she shielded herself with her wings just as a strong blast of fire was shot at her by Myrel's Dragon Breath enveloping Tashira in a blazing flame.
She retreated, with a large flap of her wings and using her legs she jumped back and out of the flame skidding across the tiled floor with smoke emanating from her, parts of her clothing were singed.
Looking up Tashira watched as Myrel picked herself up with a vengeful face, knowing her true objective.
"Okay..." Tashira muttered to herself, watching cautiously as she slowly reverted back to her human form.
Shaking her hands of the tension she rushed forth, and without words Myrel waited for the Dracass to close the distance. Tashira brought her human fist back and launched it as a dragon's.
Myrel brushed it off angrily, bringing her knee up into Tashira's gut, hand around the throat she lifted the taller Draconic up and jumped, chokeslaming Tashira.
"TchKk!" Tashira grunted, shutting one eye in shock quickly realizing she had underestimated Myrel, one who was still a Dragon-type, a Dragon type with a temper like any others, at a power level higher than her.
Tashira chuckled to provoke her further as she grabbed Myrel's wrist, with a smaller frame she raised her legs up. Her left kicked Myrel off her, her other leg came past her head, Tashira pushed off the ground and rolled backwards onto her feet rushing at the surprised Dracona.
A shot across the face, another deep into her stomach before bringing her elbow down on the smaller Draconic's back.
She hit the ground gasping, but just as she hit the floor she found herself being picked up by the back of her shirt and thrown backward causing her to stumble on her feet.
Snarling Myrel tried to retaliate, swinging her fist, Tashira grinned and caught it within the palm of her hand. Pulling her forward Tashira smashed her head into Myrel's face, her legs buckled forcing her onto her knees and without hesitance Tashira brought her knee into Myrel's jaw forcing her onto her back.
"GA-ah!" Kicking her in the stomach she skidded across the platform, Myrel used her claws to bring her to a stop and as she snarled she hurried to her feet.
"Bitch!" Myrel growled.
Tashira's eyes lit up, her dark grin widened in interest, she ran at her recovering opponent. She had done it! There in her eyes she was finally serious!
Myrel swung at Tashira and it landed into the left side of her face, Tashira came back with her own fist across Myrel's face. Growling she came back with fury and punched Tashira across the face, another-another-another- Now while she was leaning forward! Hands gripped Tashira's hair, she brought her knee up into her chest, and satisfaction overwhelmed her at the sound of Tashira breathless gasps and grunts.
Tashira pushed her off, 'She's faster than me in this form-ack!' Slightly blurry an object closed in, growing larger-Tashira's head snapped to the left from the impact, small specks of blood touched concrete.
Tashira stumbled, '... She's actually mad.' and made note of it.
Back to human, she dodged Myrel's next attack.
Myrel came back, claws were glowing this time and she didn't have enough time to drawback. Furiously Myrel swiped at the Dracass as she turned to the left- four gashes cut into Tashira's left arm.
Bringing the back of her right forearm around she knocked Myrel away, sending her flying she quickly used her wings to give her time to land back onto her feet.
Everything grew quiet, Tashira and Myrel both staring at the damage done to her arm and for a moment Myrel actually began to panic that she had injured a Tamer's Pokégirl, an alpha no less.
She became aware of the audience their fight had gathered, five were Jiroshi's, and two of Kitsuto's Pokégirls stood by Tashira's sisters; Kiya and Yue actually looked worried... but it wasn't directed toward their Pokésister.
She didn't understand at first. But then she noticed something, 'S-she's smirking...' Myrel continued to stare in shock, not knowing why Tashira actually seemed pleased by the pain her injury brought her, "The hell?" She whispered.
Tashira stood up normally, paying no mind to her bleeding arm, "It looks like you've gotten serious now." She smirked in a very unsettling way.
Myrel had no words for the comment; did Tashira mean to do that? She didn't understand.
"It's not my fault what happens next... after all you drew blood first..." Myrel narrowed her eyes, watching as Tashira slowly morphed into her draconic form.
She had her excuse.
"You're aware of the cost of human transportation I assume Jiroshi?" She asked, her face planted on a large monitor she stared at the famed Harem master, she appeared to be an Ingénue.
Naruto and Hinata awed at the size of the miniature lab Jiroshi brought them to, advanced tech layered and decorated the room, computers, a large transportation chamber for humans, a smaller one for Pokéballs, and there was a self-sustaining electric generator as Jiroshi called it at the corner of the lab which powered the entire Travel station.
Hinata tilted her head as she looked at the large generator; supposedly all you needed was an electric Pokégirl to give it a good charge once a week, fascinating.
Both Naruto and Hinata explored the room while Jiroshi and the Blue League travel station person continued to converse about the total amount of credits it'd cost to transport two humans and four Pokégirls.
Anya and three other pokégirls sat at the desk in the middle of their room with advanced tech and many computers at the front. Jiroshi's Pokégirls managed to patch through a connection with the travel station in Dublin, Ireland.
"Oi Hinata," Naruto waved her over, "What do you think this does?" He asked the moment she was close enough to see the tech he was staring at. Yes they were familiar with computers, monitors, and even a generator.
What they weren't familiar with was teleporting tech; these many varieties of pokéballs Jiroshi had displayed; Pokégirl collars; and even that large strange T2 machine Jiroshi had set up, the one Naruto was pointing at.
Hinata blinked, staring at the machine and even thought about poking it out of curiosity. Both Naruto and Hinata raised their hands and slowly-
"What are you doing?" Anya interrupted, a sweat-drop on her face. Naruto and Hinata jumped, standing at attention and blushing in embarrassment, "Nothing!" They blurted simultaneously.
"That's right; we'll worry about the specifics later, have an examination ready for two Tamers. On the exact date at precisely eight-thirty at night." Jiroshi finished with a definite nod.
"Understood, clearance confirmed. Scheduled for transportation on the fourteenth in Dublin, Ireland, they'll be prepped upon arrival." The Pokégirl on the monitor nodded, typing over on a computer.
Jiroshi nodded, and with that she signed out, and the monitor turned black. Spinning around in her chair away from the keyboards and computers Anya and the other Pokégirls looked over to Naruto and Hinata awing at the tech around the room.
Myrel snarled swiping at the woman bull-rushing her, but she wasn't fast enough, her head snapped to the right from the attack, then across the other side, Tashira grinned darkly. Myrel jumped back in a stumble, Tashira rushed, and as Myrel brought her knee into Tashira's gut, she countered with an uppercut lifting her off the ground her head snapped back.
Tashira charged forward, directed her right shoulder into Myrel's chest knocking her back. Jumping with a flap of her wings Tashira ascended above Myrel as she hit the tiled floor and skidded to a stop, looking up in time to see Tashira land on her indenting the concrete leaving Myrel roaring in pain.
Tashira licked her lips, 'I'm not done.' stepping off the pain-twitching Dracona she lifted her foot and drove it viciously and powerfully deep into Myrel's abdomen, making the dent in concrete increase, the platform rumbled as Myrel roared again slightly panicking and snarling she glared up at Tashira adding more and more pressure, the platform shook under the weight and the concrete seemed to be pushing to the side out of the way of Myrel's figure.
There was a glint in Tashira's eyes, Myrel gripped Tashira's ankle in pain, grunting as she dug her nails into Tashira's scales she threw her foot off, finally able to breathe.
"This fights getting out of hand." Mika muttered, tension building up in her, the courtyard can be fixed, but by the way things were going-
"Don't worry," Ariel cut in, resting her hand on Mika's shoulder, "If any of the miss's thought they were risking collateral damage, they'd step in." The Avariel assured, Mika looked around, seeing the laid-back faces of Jiroshi's Pokégirls as they commented on their observations of the fight.
"Don't worry Mika, Ariel's right." Yue replied, arms crossed as she watched Tashira's match closely with narrowed eyes, but not at all worried, just observing how much more Tashira had progressed from training.
The Kunimitsu stepped forward, "Well even so," She muttered, not finishing she felt the Kitsune nudge her, she had a face Mika didn't think Kiya was capable of giving.
She had a serious face, but like Yue, wasn't concerned about the situation, but she knew the severity of the fight, "Mika this fight needed to happen, if not by Tashira, then one of us would be in her place right now. It's a harem thing, you understand yeah?"
Mika raised a brow, she had her fair share of moments when her harem-sisters didn't see eye to eye, especially when Leslia joined the Harem, so she could understand, and for some reason their words were somewhat reassuring.
Silently they looked on to watch, one of the miss's must've found the fight amusing because the arena lights turned on lighting up the platform. Not only was this a training platform, but it was also a poke arena, Jiroshi's own doing.
Myrel attacked, and Tashira seemed to take them head on without much consequence, a punch across her face and she smirked in return before knocking Myrel across the platform leaving her stumbling to gather her bearings.
'What the hell's going on? I know my attacks are strong, almost identical to Tashira's, so why is she just shrugging them off? How's that possible!' Myrel's eyes widened, was that... blood.
She was bleeding, dripping from her lips to the floor; Myrel stared at the liquid in disbelief.
Yue eyes lit up, what Myrel didn't know was that Tashira was good with handling pain, so much so that she could act like it didn't affect her; it always left her and Kiya in frustration on whether they were actually hurting her whenever they sparred. The only problem was, the damage was very real, and while Tashira may not have been reacting to it, her body certainly was.
She was certain Tashira could use her unique fighting style to evade all her attacks, so why didn't she? Was Tashira simultaneously testing her durability while fighting Myrel? Leave it to an Alpha to train while... fighting.
Tashira rushed head on into Myrel's punch directly into her face, raising her knee into Myrel's gut she gasped desperately as she was lifted into the air, she felt Tashira grab her ankle.
Myrel's eyes widened, 'No you don't!' Furiously she flapped her wings as Tashira held on; grinning up at the Dracona she pulled.
"RAaH! Damn it!" Myrel roared, eyes firing up she channeled her dragon energy to her wings and braced herself, 'Empty Daggers' with a swing of her wings winds erupted, the air itself turned into chaos and enveloped the Dracass, sharp winds developed and hit Tashira head on, Tashira's eyes widened.
"Aah! Fuck that hurts!" sharp blades invisible to the eye cut into her scaled skin, blood spattered the tiles as all over her body, clothing showed the cuts of the wind and deep gashes developed causing her to release Myrel who used Gust to ascend to the air.
The ferocious wind pushed Tashira back as she skidded stubbornly, raising her arms to shield herself until she could no longer hold her footing she was blasted backwards tumbling across the floor to a stop, a bleeding mess.
Myrel descended with a vengeance her left leg extended for Tashira's broken frame. Tashira rolled to the left as a human just before Myrel impacted the arena creating a small crater within the floor, Tashira quickly did a scissor kick, tripping Myrel face first onto the concrete.
Tashira brought her legs back and unleashed it into Myrel's face, sending Tashira skidding on her back to the right side of the arena and Myrel rolling to left side snarling and screaming with blood spurting from her nose.
Mid-skid Tashira rolled back onto her shoulders, now back onto her feet as a Draconic, she took to the air and watched as Myrel punched the floor angrily glaring up at her, the bottom of her face covered in blood she hesitated for a moment seeing Tashira fly.
Growling her wings flapped as she jumped whilst using Gust to go high into the air before extending them to glide,
They circled each other, "DRACASS! That fucking hurt!" She roared.
"What's wrong, did I mess up your pretty little face!" Tashira mocked, Myrel came at her, her wings performing the Gust technique again which increased her speed to where Tashira hardly had time to comprehend as Myrel's foot met the front of her face snapping her head back, Myrel continued her assault attacking her face with punches from left and right.
Tashira brought her wings to the front and blocked Myrel's next punch; quickly Tashira's left wing struck out swatting Myrel and sent her off at the speed of a bullet.
The audience looked up, Pokégirls on the roof of Jiroshi's mansion that had been lounging and staring at the stars turned their attention to the fight, all of the Pokégirls on the ground looked up to see two Dragon types, Tashira and Myrel, bursting forth at each other with strikes of fury, roaring and snarling.
"Amazing... I've never seen an aerial battle." Yue whispered, "But, I thought Dracona's wings were too small for them to be able to fly?" She muttered.
"They can't," Kiya replied, "Myrel's using Gust to keep her in the air, she's losing energy quickly. Tashira has the advantage but she's an amateur fighting in the air, this is her first one after all." Kiya replied interestingly.
Mika perked up, staring at the Kitsune in front of her oddly, 'Her attitude completely changed... I've never heard of a Kitsune reading that much into a battle before...'Kiya's playful behavior had evaporated; replaced by some persona she wasn't familiar with.
'Empty Daggers' The gust of wind with invisible blades shot through the air toward Tashira; in return she opened her mouth, inhaled, and released a Roar enhanced with draconic energy.
Waves of strong concentrated sound clashed with the wind forcing it to the halt, the clash elicited a loud screeching noise and to the surprise of many it slowly began to push the fierce winds back at Myrel.
"No way!" Myrel hissed, flapping her wings she created a Gust powerful winds went forth and brought the clash of attacks to halt yet again, Myrel continued to produce the strong gust of wind forcing the clash to come back toward Tashira.
The entire complex below them felt the pressure of the intense winds, the leaves of trees were blowing away from the clash, and Pokégirl's hair whirled about as they put their arms in front of their face.
"Incredible." Yue grunted, she could feel all the energy they were both putting out, if they had both been at the opposite sides of the mansion, the mansion would push in and collapse.
"Grgh!" Tashira growled, the wind blades were coming back at her. Her eyes flared stubbornly before she braced herself and forced as much energy and pressure into her roar as possible, the waves on sound pushed forth and halted the clash between the two Dragon-types, the ferocious wind blades began to push in on itself before it couldn't be pressurized any further, the clash burst, Tashira and Myrel were sent flying back, spinning and twirling out of control.
"Hinata... you should come see this." He muttered suspiciously, Hinata talking to Kitsuto and Jiroshi's Pokégirls as Jiroshi spoke with the man at the counter.
Hinata raised a brow, "What do you mean-... what is that?" She muttered in disbelief. There on the hill where Jiroshi's complex was, the small light and the circling of what looked to be like wind.
They turned to each other, "You don't think..." Naruto mumbled.
They burst out of the building, "Jiroshi-Kitsuto we gotta hurry!" heading straight for Jiroshi's complex at least three miles away in this large town.
Myrel was the first to recover as she snarled and blasted toward the descending Dracass. Tashira opened her wings to their extent to act as a parachute, it leveled her and she slowed down before being tackled by Myrel who was a blur.
Both her claws were glowing white 'Dragon Claw', as she attacked Tashira, blood rained down over the arena and some of the Pokégirls as they both twirled in a collided mess, Tashira's tail began to glow 'Tail slap' as she bared her fangs and snarled.
Twisting to the left roughly her tail came around and met the side of Myrel's mid-section sending her speeding downward into arena, the impact caused the concrete around her to explode, a deep crater had formed breaking through concrete and into the earth.
Tashira fell, crashing on the left side of the Arena upper-body first, covered in blood, gashes and claw marks, her clothes were a ragged mess, her tank-top was shredded to nothing, and her sweatpants were ragged shorts.
The Wigglymuff standing next to her harem-sisters sighed, "It's over." The fight was starting to worry her, not as laid-back as the rest of Jiroshi's Pokégirls, she had been beginning to panic, her and four others watching from the roof of the mansion.
"Don't be so sure." Her Neo-Iczel sister smirked. The rest of the Pokégirls raised a brow, some slightly surprised.
Tashira was moving, slowly getting up onto her hands and knees she panted, staring at the tiles as she watched blood drip from her frame, "Tch... Fuck!" She choked out from the pain.
'If only I could remove this weight seal.' The Dracona wouldn't stand a chance, using hyper beam would destroy most of this complex that was ruled out, and now her twenty minute draconic limit was almost up.
Myrel was crawling out of the crater, snarling and breathing hard, "I'm going to kill you." She forced out.
Tashira glanced over, then looked back to the floor, then she chuckled, "Don't kid yourself." She got to her knees before standing up, "Now shut up... and do something about it." She growled, a glint within her eyes as her body began to release Draconic energy small wisps of blue fire surrounded her before it began to grow to look as if small bits of blue fire were exploding around her, surrounded by a small layer of red energy 'Dragon Rage'.
Tashira's physical attributes increased, entering an adrenaline enhanced rage.
Myrel narrowed her eyes, channeling her draconic energy 'Armor Draconis' her scales being infused with draconic energy she was surrounded by a small thin layer of yellow, her scales becoming harder, her senses and her defense heightened.
The two charged forward, Tashira roared as she sped toward Myrel with rage, adrenaline pumped through her veins, in return Myrel did a Takedown.
Upon contact the ground around them cracked, bits of the debris lying around flying back.
Tashira roared and hissed as she attacked, glaring and gritting her teeth she used Slash swiping at Tashira the two both got in their fair share of hits before Tashira kicked Myrel in the abdomen sending her flying back.
Tashira rushed forward and brought her knee up into Myrel's back lifting her body into the air before crashing back to the floor.
Charging at her Tashira punted her off the ground, reached up and grabbed her throat and throwing her into the side of the crater Myrel created.
Myrel hacked a mouthful of blood, vision blurry as she tried to concentrate, her eyes widened as she lay on her stomach face in the dirt Tashira stepped on the back on her head, pushing her head deeper into the ground.
Reaching down she grabbed a handful Myrel's hair and lifted the smaller draconic up into the air off her feet. Myrel's eyes were shut from the pain, Tashira grinned darkly into Myrel's face before bringing her other fist back and unleashing it deep into Myrel's stomach.
Her eyes shot open, mouth wide as she cried out, Tashira hit again-again-again, bringing her forward into a Head-butt.
"What's Wrong Myrel?" Tashira taunted.
Grunting, she looked at the large adrenaline fueled dragon-type, bringing her knee up into Tashira's jaw it sent her staggering back. Myrel punched Tashira across the face, then with her other hand.
Tashira caught it, frowning with an angered look as she unleashed a series of ferocious attacks, Myrel's scales took off most of the damage, but not enough to leave her unscathed, she snarled in return as she tackled the Dracass.
Straddling the Dracass, Myrel brought her fist back as a flare lit up in her eyes; blood hit the tiled floor, pounding the red-eyed bitch's face in. Snarling Tashira reached up and gripped Myrel's throat and brought her down to the arena floor beside her with a roar indenting the concrete.
Tashira reverted back to her human form, her time limit was up. Smirking Tashira rolled over and straddled Myrel, then punched, punched and punched.
When she was sure Myrel was too weak to fight she stood up, panting, and her knuckles bloodied.
Coughing up blood Myrel struggled to get up, a stubborn resolve within her, her body shook tiredly.
Tashira watched as she tried to get back up and backhanded Myrel and sent her staggering back, bringing her leg up she kicked her in the center of her chest making her lean forward and gasp.
Tashira gripped the back of her hair and raised her head, smirking at her victory, "You've lost." She brought her fist back; Myrel closed her eyes and winced.
"Nn?" Tashira grunted... afraid.
Slowly Myrel opened her eyes in confusion, then widened.
Hinata was between her and Tashira, the Dracass's fist in the palm of her hand. Myrel looked over seeing Naruto beside Kiya and Yue holding his injured side panting, Jiroshi and Kitsuto were there as well.
Her tensed body relaxed, feeling herself materialize back into her pokéball in Naruto's hand.
Tashira's breath hitched, and her body froze once she realized what happened, "H-Hina-... Master." She whispered in shock, speechless, and so terribly frightened.
Hinata looked up at her, "... Tashira, what are you doing?" She asked.
"Kk!" It was fast, five quick consecutive strikes to her weak areas and she found her legs buckling and falling to the side unable to move.
The Horned frog sage leaned down to his pupil, "Damn." Jiroshi whispered to Kitsuto.
"I know right?" He muttered.
Jiroshi and Kitsuto had said that it was no problem to clean up and that the damage could easily be fixed by Jiroshi's rock-type.
"Naruto...? I know that looked bad..." Kiya nervously rubbed her other arm, "But it was for a reasonably good reason that was carefully deemed necessary between two alphas', you're most trusted and your starters might I add-"
"We're sorry that we directly disobeyed your orders, we'll accept any punishment you decide." Yue surrendered as she bowed.
Kiya gawked, "Yue you make it sound like we set the whole thing up!" She whimpered.
"Did you set it up?" he asked lifting his head, both Hinata and himself sitting in the living room; the PPHU was out holding Tashira and Myrel's pokéballs.
Kiya and Yue's fur stood on end as they glanced to the other; Kiya waved her hand, "Ah! N-no of course not!" The way Naruto was acting was what scared her the most.
"We were aware of it before the fight began Hinata-sama, Naruto-sama." Yue confessed.
"Kk! Yue!" Kiya hissed.
Ever since they came back they hadn't said a word to Kiya or Yue, they hadn't even looked at them. Kiya stepped forward, "Naruto you can't blame us for what happened, I mean even if we could've stopped it we-"
Hinata grabbed Tashira's pokéball and held it out, "Give Tashira a bath and make sure she's cleaned up, and after she gets dressed you three wait in the guest room."
Yue received the pokéball and bowed, "Yes Hinata-sama." Kiya and Yue retreated back upstairs.
With an icy gaze Hinata watched Yue and Kiya hurry upstairs to start the bath, the moment they were out of sight Hinata's expression turned to sympathy as she looked over to Naruto, he was silent and continued to stare at nothing but Myrel's pokéball.
Tashira sat against the wall of the shower room, letting Kiya and Yue wash away the blood, dirt and sweat from her, her injuries were gone but not the mess it left behind.
She sat there staring at nothing, thinking about what she had truly done, the look in Myrel's eyes just before she was returned to her pokéball, Hinata's act of disabling her... she thought about it all.
"You know you're in trouble right?" Kiya asked, raising Tashira's right arm to scrub her armpit.
At first she didn't say anything, staring at the wall on the other side, then she sighed, "I know." she mumbled.
Kiya gave a friendly smile, "Ya know... we all know who caused this conflict. So if that person just confessed that to the masters she'd be looking out for her harem sisters, and I'm sure they'd thank her. Heh I mean there's no sense in dragging all three of us down is there?" Kiya laughed awkwardly.
Tashira stopped dazing, and slowly turned to Kiya and stared at her.
Kiya paused, "Or not." the look in Tashira's eyes, she was sorry and just by the look of her eyes Kiya could see her begging her not to leave her alone, but she'd never say that.
Kiya's expression faded, who was she kidding, she had encouraged them; Yue was the only one who even attempted to have Tashira reconsider.
Yue looked at the two and continued washing Tashira's midsection, "I warned you." She stated.
Tashira nodded solemnly, "You did." she muttered.
The three stayed quiet for a few moments, reflecting on what they had done, and thinking about what was to come.
"I'm sorry."
They looked up in surprise.
Tashira had her eyes closed, biting her bottom lip in frustration as she trembled, they froze in shock seeing tears begin to spill over, "I don't know what I was thinking."
Kiya and Yue looked concerned, shocked, and in disbelief. This was the first time they had seen Tashira cry, the first time they had seen Tashira be so vulnerable. Kiya rested her hand on her sisters shoulder, "It wasn't just you, we both wanted to get at Myrel ever since she showed up."
"But I acted on that impulse!" Tashira blurted, opening her eyes she grit her teeth, "Hinata and Naruto trusted me, I'm the senior Pokégirl, I should've known better!" She sniffled, "That's my biggest fuck-up and now they're both mad at me!"
She whimpered, more tears began to spill forth, "They confided in me their feelings, trained me to keep my emotions in check, they thought that if anyone were to maintain control *Sniff* It'd be me! I just threw that back in their face and now they hate me!" Tashira cried out.
Her throat was hurting; she tried to find the words, "I never wanted them to look at me in disappointment... I wanted to be like them, I wanted them to be proud of me-Tch... But I let my instincts get the best of me." She whimpered, looking down shutting her eyes tight.
Yue struggled to keep her composure; neither she nor Kiya said a word, the bathroom filled with the atmosphere of Tashira's silently crying.
Feeling began to return to Tashira's limbs after the shower and after Tashira reassured Yue and Kiya that she could walk they hesitantly headed for Hinata's room.
On the way over Myrel had been let out, she was walking the corridor a bleeding, grimy, ragged mess, but sported no injuries. She walked quietly and said nothing, as she passed the three, she didn't say a word or even glance, heading for the shower and then to wait in Naruto's room as Naruto had told her to.
Tashira sighed, rubbing her head at a sudden small ache, dressed in a new pair of pajamas she tried to keep herself collected.
Turning around she came face to face with Yue, the red-eyed dragon-type stared down at her as she stared back at her, slowly Yue stepped closer and wrapped her arms around her in a hug to comfort her and Tashira paused for a moment not knowing what to do.
Slowly Tashira wrapped her arms around Yue, quickly her grip tightened as Tashira's throat began to swell up again from the feeling welling within her. She held her tightly as if Yue would disappear if she let go.
"Thanks." Tashira sighed, realizing something at that moment... Yue was her harem-sister, the first time she ever saw her in such a way. The hug alone made her feel many times better; Tashira released a sigh, composing herself.
She turned to Kiya sitting on the side of the bed, "Ready to get our asses whooped?" Kiya asked.
Tashira didn't reply, there was no reason to, silently the three Pokégirls waited for Naruto and Hinata to come up.
TLTLTLT
Tashira, Kiya and Yue all sat at the edge of the bed, back straight, legs closed, head bowed.
Hinata stood with her arms crossed, expressionless as they all watched Naruto slowly pace back in forth for the past three minutes upon entering.
Beads of sweat built up on the three Pokegirls, their back ached by how arched they kept it, their body numb from staying motionless. Tashira couldn't take this torture; right now she'd accept a beating rather than this silence.
He stopped pacing, "Were you going to kill her?" His voice held no definite emotion.
"No!" Tashira cried, then she retracted, lowering her head she shut her mouth.
"You were trying to hurt her." Naruto continued, Tashira kept silent, "And you and Yue let her." He stated, standing just before Kiya who was trembling, keeping her head low enough to hide her face.
"M-master," Kiya attempted, slowly looking up into Naruto's eyes, his face showed how disappointed he was, he exuded the very feeling.
He continued to stare and wait to hear her explanation, Kiya's ears lowered, "We just-... it's because of how she acts," She continued, her fur standing on end at the mention of her name, "We couldn't take it anymore!" Kiya finished.
A flare lit up in Naruto's eyes, "Why do you care? She's not even a part of our harem, why would you attack her!" He demanded making all three wince at his tone.
Kiya looked up, arguing their point, "B-but the way she treats you-"
"That doesn't excuse your actions!" Naruto interrupted, flinching Kiya shut her eyes, "I thought you guys would have enough sense not to do something so stupid! We trained each of you to know better, you knew better!" They each continued to shrink the more the scolding went on.
"You're right Naruto-sama," Yue apologized, "It was reckless, it was wrong, and we disobeyed your wishes." She admitted, she should have known better, she should've tried harder to convince Tashira to abandon her need for action.
Kiya looked at Yue, "Even so it needed to be done!" She replied.
"What does that mean?" Naruto asked.
"Myrel got what was coming to her." Kiya stated.
"You didn't need to do anything! Right now she has nothing to do with us!"
Kiya raised her head stubbornly, "Because you're my Tamer!" She interrupted gaining his attention.
She looked at him evenly, "You're my Tamer. The best I'll ever have, and you've given me so much!" She argued before shaking her head, "How can you expect me to lay back and watch her taunt and insult you! Not you, you and I don't need to take that because she doesn't know what we went through! Call me wrong, call me stupid and punish me if you want, but I'm going to protect you, I'm going to stand up for you even if you don't think so because... because you're my Tamer..." She growled, keeping her head up she stared at Naruto strongly, her body visibly trembling.
Naruto stared at her, as well as everyone else.
"You had to do it like that?" Hinata interrupted looking at the three girls, "Now of all times you chose to beat Myrel in Jiroshi and Kitsuto's home. Our Pokegirls wrecked their training courtyard, and even worse you could've drawn the citizen's suspicion to us with your battle."
"Myrel drew first blood." Tashira muttered, the face Hinata gave her made her know that was no excuse.
Hinata sighed, "Why did you do it Tashira? You couldn't have come to us?"
Tashira narrowed her eyes, "You two wouldn't have done anything. She insulted you too Hinata!" the Dracass raised her head, "You two couldn't punish her, you can't even talk to her because you're trying to hide your secret, so I tried to help!" She explained, "I knew you didn't want me to do anything rash, but if not for your orders I would have killed her already!"
Yue nodded her head, "You and Naruto are our saviors. I never wanted to disappoint you two, but you also should've known that we didn't like her."
Naruto narrowed his eyes, "Then you should've left it to us! I've already tamed her, if you had just waited a few weeks-"
"Why!" Tashira growled, her hands were balled into fists, clenched so hard that her knuckles turned white, "You have the power! You could force her to join you in a minute! She'd already be in our harem and this wouldn't have happened if you had just forced her."
Hinata and Naruto went quiet.
Naruto lowered his head, tightened his fist, "We're not those kinds of Tamers."
"We know that, but if you want to be a Tamer you'll have to do things you don't like!" Kiya interrupted, "Just training us to control our behavior and telling us not to do something isn't going to work for everything!"
"And why not!" Naruto argued.
Kiya glared, "We're animals! Created with human, and animal DNA and whatever the hell else!" Kiya fiercely waved her tail to gain its attention "Just because you think of us like humans, doesn't mean we think of ourselves that way all the time! We have animal instincts and impulses and we can't control ourselves all the time!" Kiya yelled.
Naruto and Hinata froze, their breath catching in their throat from the outburst. Naruto's shocked expression slowly formed into a pained expression finally giving him emotion.
Hinata and Naruto shared a look. Hinata looked over to Tashira, "What else made you attack Myrel Tashira."
Being put on the spot Tashira's eyes widened, her cheeks reddening as she lowered her head in slight embarrassment, inhaling she answered, "Mostly because of the way she treats you two. The rest isn't my fault; I can't control my dragon instincts any more than Naruto can control his craving for ramen. I feel enraged by any dragon-type that I see, and whenever I see a Dronza that rage comes full force. This is how Pokégirls act!" Tashira defended,
Kiya lowered her head, "I-I... think it'd be cool if you took me on walks every now and then... Just-ya know, thought it'd be cool." She admitted, Yue raised a brow.
Tashira continued, "The point is that while we may look and act human, we still have animal instincts, throw a ball of yarn at Yue and just see what she does. Dragon types are instinctively confrontational with their own kind, it's just how we are, and we'll search for any excuse to go at each other." She finished, she let out a large exhale.
Naruto and Hinata froze at the realization. They looked similar to humans, Naruto and Hinata had a hard time thinking of them in any other way, purposefully ignoring that they didn't act human.
Naruto looked at Hinata and Hinata looked concerned, they should've known this as a Pokégirl Tamer, but they purposefully neglected it.
Slowly Naruto sighed, "I see," he whispered, "I guess we've wanted to deny it until now."
Tashira, Kiya and Yue's heads snapped up as they gasped, "Wha?"
Hinata raised her head, "Don't think your off the leash," She cut in, "Naruto and I will figure out a way to handle this, but so far your actions were still very out of line."
The three Pokégirls looked to each other before looking at their Tamers, "What's going to happen?"
Naruto rubbed the back of his neck in thought.
He groaned loudly as he looked over to Hinata and left the air silent for a few agonizing moments as Naruto tried to come to a decision on what he should do.
Finally he sighed, "... Mnn... I'm going to overlook what you've done tonight Tashira."
The red-eyed Pokégirl's head snapped up, left speechless in tremendous disbelief and gratitude.
Naruto narrowed his eyes, "But... from now on you three are going to train mentally and emotionally just as much as you do physically." he declared leaving no room for argument.
"Meaning?" Kiya asked hesitantly.
"Reading books and anger management. Your animal instincts and impulses may have had an influence on your behaviors, but your emotions decided your actions." Naruto replied, Kiya and Tashira's jaw dropped.
"You guys can't get along with Myrel, but you don't spend much time with her. From now on I want each of you to spend time with Myrel, and I expect for you to treat her like how you treat each other." Hinata ordered seriously.
"W-wait a minute," Kiya, "You want us to get along with her?"
Hinata pointed to Tashira, "Everyday you're going to spend half an hour at her side to make up your relationship with her."
Naruto's face darkened as he looked at them with a serious face, "But, if either one of you lay a hand on Myrel, you will be punished." He threatened, "Hurting those who don't deserve it is something I won't tolerate, you got that!"
A cold chill ran up their spine at the look he gave them.
"Y-yes." Tashira nodded, Kiya and Yue doing so as well.
Tashira stared, and then turned to Kiya and Yue who looked at one or another. They were being given another chance; so many emotions began to well up inside their chest at what happened, that they were being forgiven.
Kiya and Yue's eyes began to water, "*Sniffle* M-master!"
Simultaneously the three bowed their heads, "T-thank you master!" Tears spilled from Yue and Kiya as Tashira rubbed at the edges of her eyes.
"From now on don't go attacking Pokégirls without our permission."
They bowed, "Y-yeah! We're sorry."
Myrel raised a brow as she stared at the window; a crescent moon was out tonight.
Waiting silently in Naruto's room she could feel the small vibrations of Naruto and the Pokégirls yelling, 'They must be in serious trouble.'
The Dracona shrugged her shoulders; quiet fury was broiling within her toward Tashira, small remnants of loathing finding their way to Yue and Kiya.
- "You always lose! What good are you if you can't fight?" -
She stared at the moon; its light shone through the window and provided the only light in the room, finding its way to the bed.
Myrel herself was sprawled out, no clothing sporting her and her draconic skin still moist from her shower. She simply fell back on the bed and stared at the moon out of the corner of her eye.
Her heart thumped in her chest.
- "You couldn't win against a Pokégirl like that?! Until you can beat a Pokégirl that strong! Then you can have a name! Until then you're just a Pokéslut!" -
Myrel cupped the sides of her head as she closed her eyes. A deep growl resounded within her at the memory, Tashira flashed through her mind just then.
- She smirked at her victory, "You've lost..." -
"It wasn't my fault..." Myrel argued as if to convince herself.
She stared at the moonlight to get her mind off the memory, the light highlighting her figure. She gritted her teeth, before she gave up, sighing in exhaustion. She decided to not think until Naruto returned
Her ears flickered, her tail waved side to side on the bed in slight anxiety.-
*Click*
Myrel's eyes snapped to the door knob, the handle was beginning to turn, she waited on baited breath.
"Myrel..."
Walking in the lightly closed the door, his cerulean blue eyes seemed to glow much like a feline's in the night, the rest of his body was only a black figure.
'Just like that night.' She remembered. She turned away to look out the window, not showing much care for her exposed body.
- "What good is your beauty if-"- Myrel shut her eyes for a moment.
"I'm sorry for what happened."
She glanced over, his eyes were concerned, solemn, sincere... caring.
"Hmph..." She grunted, observing him carefully as he walked into the moonlight.
His blue eyes were so vivid in that light.
"That's quite a 'family' you have." She muttered, his eyes were focused... impressive, so even a teen going through puberty could ignore a Pokégirl's naked body at certain times.
He stood at the bedside, "I got after them and they're sorry as well."
"What training method did you use?" She cut off, not focusing on him.
He lifted his head, "What?"
"Both you and that girl, what kind of training did you put the Dracass through." She repeated.
He raised a brow, "Is that important? I figured you'd be trying to kill me and the girls by now?" He inquired, sitting on the edge of the bed.
-"You think you're worth training?"-
The Dracona looked elsewhere, "Just curious."
"... Listen Myrel; Tashira, Yue and Kiya didn't mean to do what they did," He started.
"It felt like she meant it." Myrel quipped, "Either way I don't care about that, or your girlfriend's Dracass right now." She finished.
Naruto glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, "Are you really shrugging them off after what they did to you?" He asked, genuinely curious and slightly surprised.
Myrel averted his gaze, "Hm, minor injuries like that can heal. In a Pokégirls case within minutes due to our genetics, p-medicine, and PokéCenters," She replied, then frowned, "Not that I don't want to tear her head off because of what she did, my blood is boiling for revenge..."
She could see him nod slowly, "Are your instincts telling you that?" He asked.
Myrel snorted, "Partly. My Draconic instincts clashed with hers ever since we saw each other, but now that I loss... My emotions are also added," She growled, then paused. Tilting her head she smirked, "I'm surprised, most beginning Tamer's don't take Pokégirl's instincts into account so quickly." She commented.
He lowered his head, "That isn't right. I should've realized sooner." he muttered.
She turned to look at Naruto's back, "I just want to know how you two got them to that level even if their experience level reads below mine." Her tail wagged, "I want to know how you got that license, and how you can change your form."
He turned to her and stared, not saying a word he turned away, "Myrel," he began seriously, looking at the moon, "Is there any chance of you joining my harem?" It held no tone, only a casual question that sounded like he didn't care either way.
Myrel's claw gripped the bed, "Fuck you." She muttered, turning her head away in anger.
Naruto hummed.
"It's not like you're giving me much of a choice." She mumbled, she turned away from him, lying on her side she rested her fists beside her head and stared at the darkness away from the window.
Naruto glanced at her in confusion, "What do you mean? I never forced you to-"
"I know you're the one who tamed me." She growled lowly.
Everything went silent and she knew that Naruto's body had frozen over. For a full minute neither said a word, she could hear the shuffling of the bed, Naruto shifting uncomfortably to try and come up with the right response.
"When?"
"Your back was bleeding that morning. I recognized it immediately." She replied, perhaps she expected him to plead forgiveness, or to deny it, either was a teenagers reaction.
"I'm sorry if it wasn't the way you wanted." He apologized.
She sat up and growled, "That's what you have to say!"
He raised a brow, "So you did like it?"
"Fuck you!" She cursed, she brought her legs in and hugged them, her tail wrapping around her, "I... don't really remember." She ground out frustrated.
Naruto blinked, "So you didn't like-"
"It's not about that you idiot!" Her face was red, "I mean I don't know whose fault it is!"
Naruto turned to her completely, now confused, he had prepared for an earful from her about how she hated Tashira and their harems and she wanted out as soon as possible, not about the Taming, it had caught him off guard, "What are you talking about whose fault it is? It's no one's fault, you were going feral."
She stayed quiet for a moment, and stared at the bed, "If it went the way I think it did. Then I didn't mean to force you." She confessed.
Naruto stared at her; eventually Myrel looked up, "What?"
Blinking in disbelief, Naruto pointed at her, "You think you... raped me?" He asked slowly.
She narrowed her eyes, "So you weren't just checking up on me." She replied, Naruto's breath caught in his throat, "Which means you knew I was going feral." She continued, her voice getting deeper when coming to the real conclusion, her fangs began to show.
"If you think you've claimed me you can just forget it, I'm not joining your harem!" She refused, "And I'm glad I fucked up your back and your ribs!" Turning away in anger and stubbornness.
Naruto paused, and then calmly shook his head as he smiled gently, "Myrel... I didn't expect anything in return. I mean I know how much a Pokégirl hates going to a PokéCenter at the wrong times; I just... wanted to help." He explained himself honestly, "Myrel, I'm not ashamed of what I did. If breaking a rib and getting my back clawed is a small price to pay to keep you from agony then I'll gladly accept having to limp around for another two weeks." He replied calmly, sincerely.
She froze at his words, then slowly turned to stare at him as her body refused to move, not understanding what Naruto was after then, "Wait-... so letting me go feral wasn't a trap?" She asked, now confused.
Naruto looked at her in actual surprise, his expression doing a one-eighty at her assumption, as if she was the crazy one, "What are you talking about Myrel? I wouldn't force you to do anything you don't want to. You don't owe me anything, you can still travel with us and when the right Tamer comes you can go with him."
The Dracona's tail waved curiously, digging to find some type of method within Naruto's actions, "So... you just wanted to help me? No compensation at all? I could've killed you that night for all you know!" She stated, if she had truly gone completely feral she would've fucked him into a boneless pile of blood, did Naruto really not understand the harm he put himself in? Any other Tamer would be screaming retribution while in a wheelchair if they actually managed to live.
Naruto's smile slowly turned into a grin, "Well, if anything, that night was a gift in itself." The suggestive statement, his imposing smile, and his attitude displayed itself proudly; he had a small blush sporting his face.
Myrel stared at him, her jaw dropped slightly in astonished silence, "Why you-you... Grahh! Perverted brat!" she pushed a hand to her forehead in frustration, how was she supposed to respond!
"Too soon?" He joked, "Loud roaring to the heavens about killing me if I dared to stop?" He reiterated her frame of mind last night, an innocent joking smile on his face.
Her cheeks began to redden, "Shut up you idiot."
Naruto laughed kindheartedly, resting his hands behind his head, eyes closed and laughed even more.
Opening his eyes he gave her a caring gaze, "I'm glad you aren't as angry as I thought you'd be. Believe me Myrel that I really did try to find you a Tamer."
She looked at him suspiciously.
The violet-eyed Pokégirl quirked the side of her lips, raising a brow, "I suppose you did it for my own sake then?" Myrel asked somewhat sarcastic, thinking back to that night.
"Exactly. I only did it because I knew that the last thing you'd want is to be placed on a shelf in a PokéCenter," Naruto finished gently, his hand moved to massage his sore muscles, "Believe me Myrel. It hurt me more than it hurt you." Gesturing to his back.
Myrel's frown struggled to remain, her lip twitching at the joke. She thought back to the feeling of that night in their time of passion, and then she sighed, rubbing the bridge of her nose and groaned loudly.
Her boiling hatred for Naruto, Tashira and pretty much his whole family had seemingly dissolved.
Myrel glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, she mumbled something to herself and Naruto in response raised a brow in interest, watching as she struggled to say something.
She sighed, "You're such an idiot... Naruto... I... t-tha-... thank... ggrr- I'm not angry at you or her anymore. You killed my mood brat." She growled, unable to say what she started with, crossing her arms she avoided his gaze.
Naruto nodded in understanding, "You and Kiya will share the bed, I won't mind sleeping on the couch tonight." He replied.
Raising a brow Myrel watched him get up and turn around, her attention turned to his back, "Naruto."
"Yeah?" Naruto looked back curiously.
"I-... Sorry about your back and your rib... I didn't mean what I said." Myrel apologized; a deep blush attacked her as she avoided his look of shock.
Naruto's surprised expression melted into sympathy, he spared her any more shame, "Don't worry about it."
He glanced to the door, "The girls are apologizing and helping Jiroshi and Kitsuto, I'm gonna go downstairs with Hinata to tell Kitsuto what type of Pokédexes he should order."
Sitting on the bed hugging her knees in embarrassment she slowly nodded.
He walked out, "Goodnight Myrel."
She watched him close the door, "Yeah."
TLTLTLT
"Rrgh! Kiya move it!" She hissed, pushing the annoying Kitsune away from her, "You're taking up all the goddamn room!"
"Make me dragon breath!" She growled, pulling more of the blanket to her side, taking up most of the bed as well.
"Why you little-"
"Go to Sleep~!" Naruto groaned from the couch, it was nearing midnight and the two have been arguing ever since Kiya came into the room.
*... Crunch!*
"Ouch!" Kiya yelped before covering her mouth to keep from angering Naruto, she snapped her head to look over her shoulder; her fur spiked seeing her tail in Myrel's mouth.
"Grrr!" She drove an elbow into Myrel's stomach, Myrel shoving her away as they fought over the blanket.
"Damn it Kiya!" She hissed.

*Snoring* Tashira's figure sprawled out on the bed she continued to snore loudly, the blankets having been kicked off in her sleep now only covering her left leg. Yue laid on top of her, nuzzling and groping her chest, purring and dreaming in comfort.
*Snore...*
*Mew...*
*Snore...*
*Mew...*
*Sno- "Tashira! Yue!"
Tashira's eyes snapped open, her body tensing as Yue jumped three feet off the bed in fright, hearing Hinata calling her name she had reacted immediately, fur spiked in panic that she'd done something wrong, they both quickly sat up and turned to the door.
"Y-yeah Hinata?" Tashira answered hesitantly, the door was closed, and Hinata was on the other side.
"Shower and dress now, meet me and Naruto in the training courtyard!"
Tashira winced at the order, Yue leaping onto Tashira, her ears lying flat on her head in fear, "O-okay! We'll hurry!" Yue called out quickly.
They stayed quiet until they heard the last of Hinata's footsteps disappear downstairs.
Tashira looked over to the window and groaned, "Damn, it's already morning?" She grumbled, yawning halfway through.
*Loud Snoring* Kiya laid sideways on the large bed, limbs stretched to their length with her mouth wide open, snoring loudly with her tongue handing from the side of her mouth her leg twitched every occasional moment.
Her legs rested on Myrel's shoulders, the Dracona herself was turned facing the window at the edge of the bed, Kiya taking up most of the room.
"Kiya!"
The Kitsune's ear twitched, but she ignored it.
*Knock knock* "Kiya wake up!"
Kiya whined, creaking open her left eye for a few seconds, then closed it again.
Naruto continued to call her name, "Kiya I know you're awake, don't ignore me!
"Mmmn-... Hey... Naruto's calling you." Myrel ground out.
"Too early," Kiya refused; turning to her side she covered her ears.
Suddenly she was flung from the bed, hitting the wooden floor with a thud Kiya yelped, Myrel kicking her off the bed. Immediately the Kitsune was up, grinding her teeth, "Ggrrr- Dragon breath-"
"Kiya!"
She winced, turning to the door she answered reluctantly, "Yeah?"
"Tashira and Yue are already in the shower, take a shower, get dressed and meet us in the courtyard. It's important!"
Kiya stared at the door, then glared at Myrel, her fur standing on end as she stomped her foot in grogginess, "Fine!" She whined, still wanting to sleep she trudged to the bathroom.
Myrel smiled, lying on her back she took the blanket back and snuggled within it, "Mmnn~" She groaned.
"Hey, what are those guys doing up so early?" Sei asked curiously pointing to the three Pokégirls walking down the stairs heading outside, the Foxx and four more of Jiroshi's Pokégirls sat at the dining room table.
Across from them stood four of Jiroshi's finest in the Kitchen preparing Dinner for tonight with the Ironchef, even a great cook like her needed help preparing food for the size of Jiroshi and Kitsuto's harem on this day.
Leeli and Jackie were sitting with Sei, seeing her point, the HeroLee and HeroChan looked over noticing Tashira as the one who occupied and destroyed the arena last night right after they had gotten done sparring.
Leeli raised a brow, "Hey, they're in the harem of that blond kid and the little girl Jiroshi told us about."
"Kitsuto-chan's counterpart?" Jackie asked, seeing the HeroLee nod she looked over to the three Pokégirls heading outside, "Yeah I bet they're in trouble."
The Air Maiden looked over, observing the Dracass, Kitsune and Cheshire, "So they're in the Universal travelers' harem." She noted, shrugging she returned to her cereal.
"I wonder why the Dracass and Dracona were fighting." Jackie pondered.
Leeli shrugged, "Well you know how difficult dragon-types can get, Riza use to act the same way back when Jiroshi was still traveling."
Iza tilted her chair back along with her head, "Who cares about that, the arena is fixed and the brats are getting punished. Hey Yuuga! When's Dinner gonna be ready?" The Neo-Iczel wasn't a patient Pokégirl.
A tick mark appeared on the Iron Chef's head as the Pokégirl turned, "You ask me that every Friday! It'll be ready at eight, it's always ready at eight! Now shut up and let me work!" She ordered, waving her spatula warningly, she hated to be interrupted when in the development of her masterpiece, "Go fix yourself some cereal if you're hungry!"
Iza sweat-dropped baring her teeth nervously as she laughed, "Right, thank you sis!" Quickly tilting her head to dodge the knife as it flew by where her head use to be.
"Oyuaa!... did you smell that food?" Kiya whined, her stomach now grumbling after her nose had smelt the wonderful scent of food.
"We hadn't had dinner last night, I'm getting a little hungry to." Yue admitted.
Tashira's stomach rumbled, but the Dracass didn't seem fazed or at least acted not to be, "If Naruto and Hinata want us to meet them at the training courtyard, then we won't be having breakfast anytime soon." She muttered.
The three walked on the cobblestones over to the Dojo, around the back and they spied Naruto and Hinata sitting in the middle of fixed and perhaps sturdier arena, all damage to the surroundings looked to have never had existed.
The three didn't comment, but by the shifting of their eyes anyone could tell they were surprised and relieved. Tashira looked over to see two of Jiroshi's Pokégirls sitting on the steps at the entrance of the back of the Dojo building, an AmaChamp and a Ronin. They looked to be talking, passing each other a water bottle before they turned their attention to the three Pokégirls stepping onto the arena.
There was another Pokégirl in the opposite direction, a ways away from the platform, an Acrobabe performing morning Yoga it seemed, inwardly Tashira marveled, 'Even on a casual day, Jiroshi's Pokégirls wake up early to train, and judging from the sweat and hard breathing, they've been training for hours.' It was about eight in the morning, so they probably all got up at six.
Not one of Kitsuto's Pokégirls or Kitsuto himself was in sight, nowhere within the complex, perhaps they were out doing errands.
Naruto and Hinata looked up.
Kiya yawned, "What's up?" She asked, Tashira, Yue and herself dressed in spandex prepared for training, any punishment really as they had expected as such.
They slowly stood up, stretching, "Guess I should tell them now." Naruto muttered, having already explained it to Hinata early this morning.
"Just saying beforehand that Naruto and I are sorry for not figuring it out sooner." Hinata apologized with an embarrassed smile, eyes closed as she blushed.
The three blanched, Kiya looking to her sisters before looking back, "Y-you mean you're not punishing us?" She asked.
Naruto waved it off, "That was yesterday and I expect you guys to just move forward in your relationship with Myrel from now on," he started lightly, then his face darkened, "... Or have you not learned your lesson?" He questioned seriously.
Each of their breath's hitched in fright.
"No we learned our mistake!" Yue blurted, bowing deeply.
"Good!" Hinata chirped with a clap, before becoming serious, "What we have to tell you is an entirely different matter. Although in a way it could be considered a punishment." Hinata muttered, putting a finger to her bottom lip in thought.
TLTLTLT
"EEEHHH!"
"Wanna run that by us again?" Tashira asked dubiously, staring as Naruto proceeded to tear off Kiya and Yue's weight seals, the two gawked in shock and amazement at the sudden loss of weight that their legs trembled from the alien experience of what it was like to feel like a feather blowing in the wind.
Naruto sighed, "We've made a mistake."
"I don't understand." Tashira mumbled.
"W-whoa! I can't even feel my body!" Kiya marveled.
Yue looked into the palms of her hands in shock, "This feels... amazing." She whispered.
Once Naruto released the seal Tashira grunted, her eyes widened immediately in shock, 'This feeling...' Her entire body felt fuzzy, like she was a blur itself, weightless for a few moments, and as light as a feather once she got use to the feeling.
"Wh-what is this?" Tashira muttered.
"The weight seals have been undone; you no longer have any weight on you. Your sense of weight changed dramatically within such little time that your body doesn't feel anything because of how light you actually are... in short, your nerves are numb." Hinata explained.
Kiya took a step with each leg... her legs reacted to the amount of muscle she used to take a regular step while wearing weights, Kiya looked back and found that she had taken eight without realizing it.
Their heads snapped to her, Kiya slowly grinned, "This is awesome! I wonder how fast I can go?"
Naruto raised his hand, "Kiya wait! Your body's too light that your muscles-"
*Crash!*
Naruto looked behind him, finding Kiya face first in the side of the metal shack full of supplies, her tail spiked and extended as her whole body dented the metal. Slowly she fell back onto the grass, her eyes twirling in dizziness as not even she could see where she was going.
Slowly the pain finally came; Kiya grabbed her muzzle, "OOWW!"
Everyone who saw what happened sweat-dropped.
Tashira, Yue and Kiya kneeled before Naruto and Hinata on the platform, Kiya cradling her muzzle with a hand towel brought to her, now covered in blood. They kept silent as they listened to Naruto explain the differences between strength and speed. As it stood, their strength had doubled, but their muscles couldn't keep up with their speed and if they fought without being able to control their muscles they'd end up shredding them beyond repair.
Tashira narrowed her eyes, "And how exactly do we go about trying to fix this disadvantage?"
Naruto crossed his arms, "First things first, you need to get use to the feel of your actual weight, and learn how to control your muscle strength to a smaller degree now. After you get use to the feeling we'll slowly begin training at a faster rate, slowly upping your speed until you reach your max and you're able to handle it. If you go full speed now, your senses won't even comprehend what's going on." he explained.
"Like so," He gestured to Kiya who grunted, averting her eyes, "You can't see, smell, or feel anything when going that fast until long after its happened, you could lose your arm and finally notice ten minutes after you've stopped running, you'll only be hurting yourself and your senses."
Kiya looked up, "Exactly how dangerous can this be?" She muffled.
Naruto looked at her, "If you went all out... going as fast as you could in a fight. Your blood is running at speeds your nerves, much less your brain can't understand, your heart will be trying to keep up to pump the blood in and out, but eventually it will build up and block your veins, your heart will explode," He put a hand on his chest, closed his eyes before raising and pointing to his temple, "Or, by some chance your heart and veins can handle the extreme pressure, your nerves and brain will be trying to give your body commands to understand and do, but it will become overloaded, and eventually your body will either give out altogether or you might even go brain dead."
Silence fell over them, a cold shiver ran up all but Naruto's spine at the severity of the situation, "We'll need to train you in each of the determining factors in order to sharpen your senses to be able to handle it understand?" Naruto continued.
Simultaneously the three Pokégirls lowered their heads.
He raised his head, "Until we get this all taken care of, using weight seals is out of the question." He finished.
Hinata nodded, "As of right now, you are forbidden to go beyond walking speed, for you guys even that's just as fast as a normal person's run." She stated, "Yue you can't teleport, your nerves are shocked and what feels like a regular teleportation could send you five miles over, understand?"
Yue's fur stood up, her mouth dropping, "I... can't teleport?" She asked, then looked up, "B-but isn't covering more distance a good thing?" she asked desperately.
Hinata looked sadly at her, "We can't take that risk. Your body could force your energy to cooperate because you don't know your body's limits, if you teleported that far without meaning to and used up all your energy you could die of energy exhaustion without realizing it."
Yue froze, trying to wrap her mind around accidentally killing herself, her demeanor deflated, "I... understand."
Hinata nodded, lowering her head she sighed sadly, "How Lee-kun could do this I'll never know." With her Byakugan and chakra control she could grasp a little more of the situation, and would adapt faster, but even for her this was unbelievably hard to control.
Naruto apologized, patting her back.
"So that's it? You're lowering our training?" Tashira asked in disbelief, if anything she was now weaker than with weight seals, this wasn't fair!
Naruto turned to her, "Trust me; you've got enough on your plate as it is. We'll need more meditation, and sensory training got it! And when it's over, you'll be much stronger!" He replied, "Unlike you guys, you don't have a chakra demon that can heal almost every injury. This is serious, I heal fast and even this is taking longer than any injury I've had, my muscles were shredded and my heart was ready to burst just before I passed out in my fight with Kitsuto."
Hinata, as well as the Pokégirls gasped in shock.
"I don't want this happening to you because you won't be as lucky." He finished.
Quietly the three sighed, "Did we get any advantages from this?" Tashira asked.
"Yeah," Naruto answered favorably, "You use much less energy to do something, Tashira how many Hyper Beams could you use before becoming exhausted?"
"At the most, about three." Tashira answered hesitantly.
Naruto smiled, "Now you can probably fire six Hyper Beams and still be ready for a fight." He replied.
Slowly Tashira raised her head, her eyebrows going up, "R-... really?"
He shrugged, "Or if your unlucky, you'd use the same amount of energy for one Hyper Beam that you're usually use to, meaning you'd fire a hyper beam with the strength of three. If that's the case then you'd only have enough energy to fire two or three," He looked away with a hand on his chin, "Just one might have enough power to wipe out half the town." pondering the calculations.
Tashira seemed to be trembling, at least she heard some good news, where she couldn't do much physically, her techniques were increased by either quality or quantity, either didn't matter it was just damn good to hear!
"Big whoop, Tashira gets an upgrade. What about me and Yue, we don't have many energy attacks." Kiya interrupted, really all she could use was her ember technique, psychic illusion, and Hyper-sensitivity. The last one could help her with her speed training much faster... but she still had to learn how to control her energy again to even use it without frying her senses more.
Naruto smiled, "Then we'll have to fix that." He replied, "But for now, I just want you guys to get use to moving around, that oughta keep you guys busy."
Hinata nodded, "I'll get some books for mental training, and we'll also work on our meditation."
Tashira tried walking back to the mansion; she walked face first into the side of the dojo, then clipped her foot on one of the cobblestones face-planting into the grass. It went much the same way for Kiya and Yue, to the human eye they were in one place then blurred ahead four feet, left-right-back-forward, they couldn't curve which resulted in Tashira doing zig-zags trying to calculate her muscle strength and by just how much she needed to cut back only to walk face first into one of the pillars supporting the mansion at the entrance.
Ukoya watched from the fountain in the front yard as Kiya, Yue and Tashira grunted and blurred around, hitting each other and objects in their path, cursing as their noses began to bleed, hitting their feet against the steps.
"What in the world?" Ukoya mumbled then winced when Kiya shut the door on her tail.
"AaaaaaAAAAHHH!"
*Glass-breaking*
Kawana looked over seeing Tashira face down beside a broken vase, "Tashira? What are you doing?" Jiroshi's Alpha flinched when Yue ran into the corner, Kiya was stuck in the door yipping and crying as she tried to get her tail free.
Kawana raised a brow, "What's wrong with you-" *Crash!* "... Guys?"
Yue cradled her face, mewing in agony, "Naruto and Hinata had us undergoing special weight training, it backfired and now our nerves and senses are fried."
"Kya!" Her tail came free, bushy and pulsing, "Our speed increased to where we can't control how fast we go and we can't see where we're going either."
Kawana narrowed her brows, "I've never heard such a thing, I take it your trying to control it?"
"More or less." Tashira muffled from the floor, deciding to just crawl her way to the kitchen for some food.
Kawana watched the three Pokégirls trudge passed her, "Well... dinner will be ready at eight tonight."
"AAH! Damn it!"
"Make it stop!" Yue cried.
"What are we gonna do?" Hinata asked as Naruto walked down the hill toward the town, herself standing a few feet behind legs trembling before she blurred next to him.
She had her Byakugan activated.
"Well we could get sleeping pills to slow them down." Naruto suggested.
"Their energy didn't go up, making them groggy isn't gonna slow them down. It's just their control that's errati- Aah!" Hinata tripped hitting the ground face first before tumbling down the hill, "Help me Naruto!"
"Ah! I'm coming Hinata!" Running after her.
Carrying her downhill the rest of the way Naruto looked at her worriedly, "You okay?"
Her hair was mussed and dirtied, as well as herself, having rolled halfway down the hill before Naruto got to her, "Yeah... I'm fine Naruto." She muttered, patting herself down.
Setting her down carefully he asked, "Do you want me to carry you to the library?" He asked.
"That isn't gonna help me gain control any faster," She mumbled sadly, instead she hooked her arm around his to keep her by his side, as she blurred he helped her keep her balance.
Villagers stared in shock as they watched two teenage Tamers walk arm in arm, then the girl would blur in place every other moment.
Naruto raised a brow, "What? Haven't you ever seen someone blur before?" He asked jokingly, they sweat dropped, but indeed they have seen weirder things, they ignored them.
"That re-minds me Naruto-kun? How c-ome you're not having trouble con-trolling your sp-eed." She asked, blurring every other moment.
Naruto looked surprised for a moment before he pondered it, then shrugged, "I guess it's because my body literally can't, my chakra's as low as I can suppress it, and I can't do anything other than walk." He replied.
He looked at her in question, "Which reminds me, why do you have your Byakugan activated Hinata?" No one could see it, ever since five in the morning after he explained what happened, he helped Hinata train, keeping her Byakugan activated to help regulate how much chakra she was using, luckily using small amounts of chakra was a Hyuuga's specialty, it only took her three hours to finally figure out how much chakra she needed for a Henge.
If they kept at this then they should be able to control their body in a couple of days.
"Like you said, we need to work on increasing our senses to comprehend our body's muscles control, with Byakugan it's a little easier to do." She muttered, "The sooner we get this fixed the sooner we can get back to training."
Naruto nodded, he had a week of traveling to get use to his lightness, by the time he was completely healed, and he too should be able to control himself regularly.
She had never felt such a bed as comfortable as this one in her life, she moaned in comfort. It reminded her of the wonderful night's rest she had just after Naruto tamed her-
*Thud!*
Something hit the door, or rather someone judging from the whimpering. Myrel rolled over onto her back and glanced to the alarm clock, it was around two, she was still naked, not having dressed since she had showered last night, and she peered at the door.
'What the...' Wondering who was on the other side of the door as the handle jiggled furiously. Suddenly it flung open, a high-pitched yelp elicited from the Pokégirl as she flew across the room and onto the bed onto top of Myrel.
Myrel blinked then looked down to find that it was Kiya buried in her chest.
Kiya looked up.
Myrel raised a brow, "What are you doing?"
Kiya eyes shifted, "... Walking." She muffled horribly, she had spent the last six hours doing so outside in the courtyard with Tashira and Yue after eating breakfast. Then they went back to their rooms... She had gotten a little better; she was no longer a blur.
"You walked right into my breasts, you mind." Myrel growled.
"I don't wanna hurt myself," Kiya whimpered, averting her gaze as she appeared to be remembering something horrible.
"I'll gladly help you hurt yourself." Myrel hissed, "You're bleeding on me." She stated, just in case Kiya hadn't realized it.
"I'll clean that up later." Kiya muttered tiredly.
"Well aren't you girls getting frisky." A voice commented from the doorway, quickly Myrel and Kiya's heads snapped to the door, seeing Jiroshi's Boobcat standing at the doorway.
"This isn't what it looks like!" Myrel yelled.
"I'll just close the door to leave you two lovebirds alone." The Pokégirl teased as she closed the door.
Myrel released a frustrated sigh as her head hit the pillow, "Great."
"That's what you get when you don't put pajamas on." Kiya said quietly.
"Shut up." Myrel growled, the mere mention of sex brought a memory back to her. Looking up into Myrel's eyes her ears suddenly perked up as Kiya hummed in interest.
Myrel raised a brow, "What?"
Kiya narrowed her eyes lifting her muzzle up to talk, "Hey, I know that look." Kiya's face slowly turned into a large grin, her nose still bleeding.
"Now you just look like a pervert." Myrel muttered annoyed, at the moment she could humor Kiya, she didn't feel like moving at all, her body was still use to the warmth of the bed and besides she was supposed to be trying to build a better relationship with Kiya.
Myrel groaned, "At least clean up the blood first," She ordered, "There's a box of tissue on the dresser over there."
"Can you get it for me please?" Kiya pleaded.
Ready to reject she looked down into the largest chocolate brown eyes she had ever seen, Myrel looked away in irritation, "Whatever." pushing Kiya off she got up and walked to the dresser.
~Giggle~
"I swear if I catch you looking at my ass," Myrel threatened as she grabbed a few squares of tissue, cleaning her chest she tossed it in the small waste bin beside the dresser.
Turning around she saw Kiya sprawled on her back with her eyes closed, Myrel stared for a few seconds before sighing loudly as she walked over to the bed, leaning over the Kitsune and proceeded to clean her muzzle with the tissue.
Kiya opened her eyes, seeing how close Myrel's face was to her own, "Thanks Dragon Breath."
Myrel breathed on her muzzle mostly to annoy her, instead she only giggled.
The door opened, "Hey Kiya where did your Tamer g-" Kawana stopped talking once she realized what she walked in on, seeing a naked Dracona leaning over a panting Kitsune, the Hottie paused, "Oh, I'll come back later." Closing the door.
Myrel stood up, "Wait! Damn it!" Myrel yelled, palming her forehead in frustration.
~Giggle~
"You shut up." Myrel ground out, throwing the tissue away before sitting on the bed.
Quietly Kiya propped herself up on her elbow, a fox grin spread over her muzzle, "You're just too cute." she giggled.
"Let's see how cute you think I am while I strangle you." Myrel growled.
"Ooh Kinky." Kiya teased.
Myrel growled, "Shut up Kitsune!" turning away they sat in silence for a few short moments, rage building up in the Draconic Pokégirl, "Stop looking at me like that." She didn't need to feel embarrassed for being tamed, but Kiya only giggled.
"What?" Myrel asked irritated.
Kiya leaned over interestedly, "I saw that look in your eyes earlier."
Myrel glanced over in annoyance, she inwardly jumped, seeing Kiya's large grin, and big brown eyes stare into her very soul, "Look?" She inquired Kiya to continue.
Kiya snickered, "I know that look," She giggled even more pervaciously, "It's alright, there's no need to be embarrassed. The look in your eyes... that's the look I get after a good fucking." She compared, now she had a reason to thank Hinata's facial reading training.
Myrel turned her head stonily, "What did you say?" she threatened.
Kiya allowed silence to pass through them, and oddly the Dracona thanked her for that. Kiya smiled at her, a certain glow in her eyes now, "If you want... maybe all three of us could have a session together in the future?" She proposed a cheeky smile upon her muzzle as she looked up at Myrel, there was no better relationship than that of sex, and Naruto wanted her to build her relationship with Myrel.
The Dracona in question did a double take, her head snapped at attention as she looked down at the Kitsune.
"You know," She whispered suggestively, she scooted closer to Myrel, "Just you... me... and master." She sensually hinted, Myrel was quiet in surprise, her cheeks reddening as she scooted away, and Kiya scooted closer, she sat up and leaned over the Dracona's shoulder as she whispered, "It would last all night~" leaning over she kissed Myrel on the cheek, Kiya noticed Myrel's body shiver.
Suddenly feeling more annoyed than anything else Myrel strengthened her resolve, stood up and backed away from the obviously aroused Kitsune, "I'm not interested."
The Kitsune shrugged tracing a circle on the bed where she sat, "Well, you never know." She left her proposal out for her to take.
Myrel's body trembled, disgust? Most likely. She shook her head, that would not happen, there were many things she'd rather go through before having a session with them.
Myrel blinked, then blinked again as her eyes noticed the certain look in Kiya's eyes, "You know." she realized
The Kitsune pouted and fell back onto the bed, "I wanted to join, but Naruto said you'd realize it was him right then." Kiya sighed.
"How did you know that I knew?" Myrel asked.
"I didn't, just my libido instincts," Kiya joked, "And knowing you, I'm guessing you've already confronted Naruto." She rolled onto her stomach and looked at Myrel, "But even more interesting, it looks like you enjoyed it."
Myrel growled, "You couldn't be more wrong, I ought to kill that brat, and you for even knowing about it!"
Kiya rolled onto her back, tilting her head back to look at her upside down, "Did you like the way his cock slid in and out? You fucked him over raw didn't you if your screaming is anything to go by," She enticed.
Myrel stared angrily, her cheeks slowly reddening at the description, "Shut up Kitsune." Myrel growled, she would not be toyed with.
Kiya curled into the soft bed, opening her mouth in a silent scream she put her finger on her bottom lip, "Rahhh~ Yes, just like that~" Kiya repeated what she heard in a sensual moan. - RRraahh! Yes! Yes! Just like that!"-
"I said enough Kitsune!" Myrel growled, putting her hands on the bed beside Kiya's head she hovered above the Kitsune staring into her eyes, "I won't be laughed at!" She snarled.
Kiya snickered, "You think I'm laughing at you?" Slowly she reached up and put her hand behind Myrel's head, pushing her fingers into Myrel's hair, "I'm laughing at the fact that you can't admit how good it felt." She answered.
The door opened, "I might've left it in-" Arimi paused seeing Myrel leaning over Kiya, Kiya's hand around Myrel's head as if they were about to kiss.
The Acrobabe backtracked, "Whoa, taming right? I'll just leave, sorry." She apologized as she closed the door.
Anger boiled to the surface, "Fuck! I can't believe it happened again!" Myrel cried out.
Myrel stood shirtless with just a pair of sweatpants, she grumbled to herself as she looked through the drawers, finally pulling out a chosen tank-top, "I didn't enjoy it by the way." Myrel stated, feeling the need to deny what she truly thought.
"You're lying." Kiya replied in boredom, staring at the ceiling.
"He fucked me when I was vulnerable!" She snapped as she pulled the clothing down.
Kiya glanced to her in slight confusion, "Vulnerable? Is that what you really think? That Naruto was the bad man the raped you against your will?" She asked genuinely curious if Myrel actually believed that.
Myrel didn't answer right away, "He knew the risks and still did it." She muttered.
"Only to make you feel better." She replied, and then tilted her head, "Can you at least answer this honestly? How did it feel?" Her teasing perverted behavior had evaporated from her.
The Dracona stopped, thinking back to that night and what she'd done and what she said, she couldn't help but look away and blush, "It wasn't... the worst." She admitted reluctantly, at least better than all her previous tamers.
"How do you think he felt?"
Myrel blinked, thinking about what Naruto talked about last night. Having a four hundred fifty pound dragon bounce on top of him, whilst clawing up his back, and ending up breaking a rib?
She didn't answer.
Kiya sighed, "I don't know why you lie to yourself. It was a good fuck, through and through." She stated, closing her eyes and laying the subject to rest.
Myrel narrowed her eyes and opened her mouth, then slowly closed it a few seconds later.
Books on meditation; the basics of understanding energy; A book containing data on Legendary Pokégirls; a book containing information about each league; learning to master your olfactory senses; a book on yoga and stretching... so far this is what they had grabbed off the shelves.
"Man this library's big," Naruto muttered.
"That makes it all the more useful; all of this information is vital Naruto-kun." Hinata replied.
"Yeah I know, I know," he waved off, walking by something that caught his eye he stopped and took a few steps back.
'Pokégirl Animalistic Behavior & Instincts' Reaching up he grabbed the book off the shelf and flipped the book halfway, reading the first thing that popped, up, "It is common for Avian type Pokégirls to want to take their Tamers up for a flight, they believe that the experience of the scenery and the wind brings them closer to their Tamer spiritually and that their bond will grow stronger."
Naruto raised a brow, flipping the pages in interest he turned to Hinata, "Hey Hinata check this out. Cat Types: Neglecting to give your Pokégirl attention will result in either bitterness toward the Tamer. This will cause her to act out in public, or procrastination on her part, resulting in the Harem being unable to get anything done for the Tamer's benefit until giving the Pokégirl the attention she craves. This can also imply materialistic things she wants such as buying her a scratching post or getting a squeaky toy, anything she can play with to pass time. Note: Her wanting attention is NOT the same as wanting to be Tamed."
Hinata glanced up, "Is it like that for all Cat-types? Yue never acted out."
"Maybe because you're treating her right." He muttered, Hinata smiled. - "Throw a ball of yarn at Yue and just see what she does." -
Naruto raised a brow as he stopped on a page that probably held some relevance to them, "Hey Hinata. Dragon-types: It has been proven that massaging your dragon-type's back and shoulders (That which has wings) will not only please them, but it has shown to relieve stress, calm them down, and increase trust between Pokégirl and Tamer. As a result of your effort to comfort and show care for her she will be more willing to indulge in your commands." Naruto and Hinata glanced at each other.
"Let me see that book." Hinata asked, looking at it, "... Huh." She murmured, raising her brows she tilted her head in thought, "I'll be sure to give it a try some time."
"Grab it?"
"Grab it." Hinata agreed returning to scaling the bookshelf.
Naruto turned away, each chapter was about a different Pokégirl type, he paused to read a line that stuck out.
"Any Pokégirl that has a prehensile, furred or otherwise soft and sensitive tail (In other words, no rock tails, metallic, or the like) has been known to be a great bonding point. By either petting, playing, and/or pleasuring your Pokégirls tail, it will please them greatly and you will notice their loyalty toward you will increase in time."
Closing the book Naruto stared at it in interest.
"Let's see, show me something Dragon scroll," Tashira muttered, unfurling the Dragon Pokégirl scroll filled with techniques, "Now, what attack would be worth learning." She mumbled in thought, Tashira sitting on the bed, Yue was standing a ways off having been at it for the past three hours, it was almost four.
Yue took a slow trembling step, staring intently at her feet to make sure she didn't take any more than two steps, the amount of concentration she was giving this was high, sweat had built up on her fur, she tried hard to keep her energy suppressed as low as possible with each step.
"That's three," Yue blinked, "No, that's not right," She couldn't even feel or see herself take the third step until after she'd already done it, in slight frustration she tried again, walking back and forth across the room for the past three hours over and over intent on getting use to the feel of her normal body.
"Okay... five-wait no, darn it!" She panted, "Hiss~! This is hard; it's taking way longer than I thought it'd take!" She hissed agitatedly.
Tashira shrugged, "No one said it'd be easy forcing your brain to pay attention to the smallest bit of movement that it's not use to." She replied, "You suck at something at first, then in time with more training, you get better." She finished calmly.
"Tashira you're not helping," Yue cried, "And shouldn't you be trying to get a feel for movement as well?"
Tashira raised a brow, "Getting back to normal isn't gonna take a day ya know? It'll take time, a month max to get back to the way we were, and another to fully use our advanced speed and strength to our advantage- And Found it!" Tashira burst in victory, "Mini-Hyper Beam. If Naruto's right then each beam will be half a strong as my old Hyper Beam, I could obliterate that mountain like Pokékits play if I can master this- Ha!" She thought.
"That won't do much if you can't move. You'll be a sitting duck firing beams from just one spot." Yue commented.
"I'm getting to that don't rush me!" Tashira snapped.
Yue bit her bottom lip in concentration, and finally she took a step with each leg, "Okay... two... two?" She'd done it! The Cheshire's tailed wagged dramatically, "Tashira, I'm starting to get the hang of this!"
"Congratulations, it took you eight hours to learn how to take a single step." Tashira replied.
Yue whined, "Why do you have to ruin my accomplishment nya!"
Tashira glanced up, "I agreed to cuddle whenever you want, what else you want from me?"
Yue paused, "... Yeah I guess that makes up for it." she murmured.
After gathering all the books they believed they needed they left the Library and hurried to make the journey back to Jiroshi's home. The Sun was beginning to hide away as it was nearing seven o'clock.
"Huh? Naruto, Hinata?" the two looked up to see Kitsuto and his harem being led by a Whorizard and Sayjin, they stood at the entrance of the gate looking to just have been returning.
"Wha? Kitsuto, where have you guys been all day?" Naruto asked curiously, he noticed the sweat build up, and dirt on them as if they just got done training.
Kitsuto grinned, "We've been training with Sensei Suya and Riza in the outskirts of town. We always do this every Friday." He replied gesturing to Jiroshi's Pokégirls who waved when mentioned waiting for Naruto and Hinata to catch up, immediately they noticed Hinata tremble with every other step.
"What's wrong with her?" Suya muttered with a raised brow.
"It's hard to explain," Naruto muttered.
"I just can't control my body." Hinata muttered blurring again, "It's only temporary."
"Sounds like every Pokégirls problem." Riza snarked humorously, the Whorizard nodded before she opened the gate.
The two senior Pokégirls headed in to prepare for Dinner.
Kyu stared at Hinata in concern, "What's wrong?"
Hinata smiled as she quickly gave the group a quick overview.
"Well that sucks." Kitsuto muttered.
"Yeah." Naruto and Hinata agreed.
"If you need any help with training, I and my Pokégirls are at your disposal." Kitsuto proposed, all his Pokégirls besides his Kyubi heading inside for a shower, having been training for hours, they were all beyond hungry.
"Thanks for the offer; we might need it later." Naruto muttered.
Kitsuto grinned, "Well for now let's just go in and eat! Dinner should be ready in an hour."
TLTLTLT
"Everyone get in here, food's ready!" The Iron Chef's microphone rang through the building, immediately Kitsuto's Pokégirls clamored down the stairs to get a seat, showered and cleaned now ready to eat.
From all corners of the house Pokégirls came to their seats, the table was filled with food at the ready ranging from meat for the carnivores to salad for the omnivores it filled the dining room table, even more in the Kitchen on the counter and where ever there was space.
Jiroshi bellowed loudly from his end of the table, "A great masterpiece as always Yuuga my dear!" Kissing his Iron Chef on the cheek as she blushed and thanked him greatly.
Naruto, Hinata, and Kitsuto stood up from the living room couch, Pokégirls lazing about did so as well as they went to the dining room.
Looking up the stairs they watched Myrel slowly descend down the stairs with a glint in her eyes at the wonderful smell of food.
"Oi, Myrel where's Kiya, Tashira and Yue?" Naruto asked.
Myrel glanced over, then raised a brow in remembrance, "Your Kitsune's broken, she's been buzzing around for hours trying to walk back and forth in the room," Just as she said that they picked up the sound of Kiya's focused grunts.
Looking up they spied Kiya latched onto the railing on the side of the stairs. They watched as Kiya slowly... slowly she took a trembling step down the first step, her muscles couldn't take this, they felt like she'd been holding them in the air for hours... Heh.
Naruto blinked, and then he smiled in amazement, "Wow Kiya! You're already getting the hang of it!"
"Shut up!" She growled, having gotten two cramps since her weights were taken off and spending twelve full hours in concentration, calculation and frustration, not to mention she was hungry, she was in no mood for Naruto's cheery behavior.
Kitsuto and Myrel sweat-dropped as they watched Kiya go another two steps, "Imma go get a seat," He mumbled as he left.
Behind Kiya, Yue slowly turned the corner stumbled and knelt down for a moment before slowly standing up and continuing to walk, following Kiya's lead down the stairs.
Kiya breathed hard, "Al~most there." She whispered biting her bottom lip.
Hinata blinked, "Huh, wonder what's taking Tashira so-"
*Crash!* "Fuck!"
Yue turned around, her fur spiked, "Reow!" Tashira crashed into her sending them tumbling.
Kiya looked behind her, "Kya! No, no- Gah!" The three fell down the stairs before hitting the bottom with a thud, Yue landing on Kiya and Tashira on Yue.
Myrel smirked, "Nice."
"Wwhhyy~!" Kiya cried out, "What the hell Tashira!"
"Shut it! This is harder for me!"
"Get your ass out of my face!" Kiya barked, Tashira rolled over, rubbing her head as the three slowly sat up rubbing their aching spots.
Hinata raised a thumbs up, "Good job!"
"THERE'S NOTHING GOOD ABOUT IT!" Tashira and Kiya yelled, then stopped as their stomachs growled loudly.
"Heh."
Kiya snapped to Myrel, "What the hell you smirking at Dragon Breath!"
"Nothing,"
TLTLTLT
"Bout time, come grab a seat!" Jiroshi ordered, gesturing to the seats beside him, Kitsuto sitting at his left, two other empty seats beside him.
Helping Tashira, Yue and Kiya take a seat, and then Hinata, Naruto took his beside Kitsuto.
"Hey it's the blurs." The Neo-Iczel commented as Tashira sat next to her.
They marveled at the food prepared for them, "You guys eat like this every day?"
Jiroshi chuckled, "I wish, Yuuga here prepares Dinner every Friday, only dinner because its her favorite. Other than that every other meal time the girls just go downtown and eat what they want."
"You must have a lot of credits in reserve then." Hinata stated in awe.
Jiroshi grinned, "Thanks Hinata,"
"If you command it, I'll prepare dinner every day, Breakfast and Lunch as well if you wish."
"My dear I couldn't ask more of you, Dinner once a week from you is good enough and all the girls love you for it." he replied then turned to the group, "Alright everyone dig in!"
Yuku put her hands together in a small prayer of thanks before digging in, chattering about the table of Pokegirls and Tamers ate what they found most appetizing.
Fixing himself Ramen, Naruto looked over to Jiroshi joking with Kitsuto, picking on him by trying to steal his food, "Gah! Get away ya pervert! That's my food!"
"I don't see your name on it! Who do ya think bought the food brat?"
Naruto stared watching as they acted like siblings, maybe even like father and son in a way, and for just a brief moment Naruto wondered, 'I wonder if that's what it's like to have a father.' Then again he remembered various moments where he and Iruka acted like that in a way, and there were also those moments when Jiraiya would challenge him and he'd buy into like always.
Naruto laid his fork down, realizing just how much he missed them.
Hinata noticed him lay his fork down, looking over she saw him watching Kitsuto and Jiroshi joke with each other, and she had an inkling to what was going through his mind, 'Naruto-kun.'
"Hey Naruto, tell us what it's like in your world." Kitsuto cut in leaning close to Naruto and wrapping an arm around his shoulder, the blond in response jumped at the sudden call of his name and contact.
The table quieted down at the request, Naruto looked around, "Huh?"
Myrel raised her head in suspicious interest.
Jiroshi nodded, "Oi come on boy, tell me what my counterpart is like!" He asked.
Naruto paused, his eyes spying Myrel at the other end of the table, "Sure thing, just hold on." He took out his pokéball.
Myrel looked affronted, "Hey! Don't you dare!- Damn you brat!" She cursed before she materialized back into her pokéball.
...
"Oh yeah she doesn't know huh?" Shiya mumbled in remembrance from what Jiroshi relayed to the Catgirl, the others nodded in understanding, "Oh- yeah I get it - makes sense."
Naruto grinned, "I guess I should start from the beginning." He muttered scratching his cheek on where to begin, "You see back in my world every person is born with what we call Chakra-"
They all listened in fascination as Naruto told them what kind of powers people had back in their world and also what customs they had-
"Whoa, whoa! Seriously you guys don't have sex every other day?" Sei asked in shock, the Foxx couldn't imagine a world where she'd go on living only having sex with that one person every other month or so... it sounded sad.
"That's what I said!" Kiya encouraged, Kyu smiled foxily in thought and Mika hid a smirk.
Hinata blushed, "Well there's only regular men and women there, Lesbians are rare and also the life we live doesn't give us much time for personal relationships." fidgeting as she explained.
"All the more reason to fuck out your frustration!" Riza called out, crossing her arms she spit out a small flame, "You go to school until your twelve and then get shoved out to do missions and kill, not even any fucking to release the tension and frustration, I mean damn that's just torture." She complained.
The pervy Frog Sage leaned closer, "So in your world the women can easily get pregnant at any time? Man what a bummer."
Kawana developed a tick-mark.
"In my opinion they're lucky, I didn't get to fight any serious battles until I turned fourteen." Kitsuto thought.
"Man all of you are just big perverts," Naruto grumbled crossing his arms.
"Hey boy come on what's life without a little fun?"
He glanced at him, "Jiraiya said the exact same thing." Naruto mumbled in memory, "Anyway like I was saying; There was this thing called the Chuunin Exams, it determined whether a Ninja got to be promoted to the next level-" He continued.
It was interesting to hear how another world lived, how they did things completely foreign to the Pokégirls, Ninja and villages to nations and daimyo's, it sounded very fascinating... except without the fucking.
"And that's when Hinata went up against Neji, she'd explain it better because I don't know much about the Hyuuga family, Hinata?" He left off.
Hinata blinked, suddenly the spotlight was on her, an audience of at least forty, "Well," She started, swallowing saliva in nervousness, "Neji-kun is a cousin of mine, he lived in the branch family of the Hyuuga clan, I was next to be heir... or at least that's what my father told me unless I lost the Chuunin Exams. The Hyuuga family was broken up in two branches-"
She explained the workings of her family, their techniques and bloodline abilities she went on to explain what the Byakugan was as she showed it to them. The Pokégirls marveled at how a regular human without blood gifts could do such a thing.
"That's a very precious ability; you're able to see through objects and a two hundred ninety-eight radius?" The Air Maiden replied.
Hinata nodded, explaining how they incorporated their bloodline with their fighting style. She went on to explain the marriages of her family.
Most of the Pokégirls shrugged, while incest was frowned upon in the Pokégirl society, many Tamers took on sisters or mothers as Pokégirls every day. Hinata explained that if she succeeded to become heir she might have had to marry Neji or some other branch member to keep the family line pure.
Naruto grinned, "Don't worry Hinata I wouldn't have let that happen, and as soon we get back home and I become Hokage I'm gonna change the Hyuuga way and get rid of that nasty caged bird seal! Just you wait!" He assured.
Hinata smiled as she blushed, "N-Naruto-kun." She then went onto the workings of all the clans that she knew within Konoha and their bloodline abilities.
"Judging by the way Naruto was telling things, he considers that Uchiha kid as a brother. And that kid's elder brother killed his entire family?" Jiroshi asked, Kitsuto had not yet heard this story, he turned to look at Naruto.
Naruto nodded reluctantly, "Yeah, Sasuke was an Uchiha with some Sharingan ability that let him copy other people's techniques by just watching them."
"Amazing," Anya muttered.
"Wish I could do that." Suya muttered.
"I feel bad for him though, to lose his whole family to the person he trusted most." Kyu stated sadly.
"I wonder if he is still sane." Ariel pondered.
"I hope so; no one deserves such a fate." Yuku replied.
They told the events that followed the Chuunin Exams and then onto Bijuu, one of who Naruto had to face in the forests, "I also hold one, a nine-tailed demon fox Bijuu called the Kyuubi No Kitsune." He muttered, shutting his eyes to await some negative response.
Mika, Kyu and Sei perked up at the words, "So that's why you smell like a Kitsune." Kyu muttered.
"I always thought it was the aftersex smell." Sei replied making Naruto blush and Kiya grin.
"That is extraordinary, the way Bijuu and your world's sealing techniques are created and used." Mika replied.
Naruto raised his head seeing Jiroshi grin at him, "That explains the whisker marks boy, I like them they make you look badass."
"Huh? Really?" Naruto stuttered, he was being complimented for his curse? Although he should've expected as much, they had never seen its terror, but still the fact that they just didn't care was comforting in a way, except for the Fox-types who were attracted by it.
"Trust me he's no friend, he's actually a jerk and real cocky and has the 'I'm better than you' attitude." he replied.
"Like Sasuke?" Kitsuto reminded, "Sounds like you'd be best friends then."
Naruto raised a brow, "Idiot."
Tashira smirked, "That's ironic."
He continued to how Jiraiya and him met and him taking him on his journey to get the fifth Hokage Tsunade, Jiroshi and Kitsuto paid especially close attention to this as well as Jiroshi's harem as it vaguely reminded them of mission a few years back when they were still on the road.
"Tsunade eh? Sounds like a real babe." Jiroshi grinned.
"She actually used a Jutsu to disguise her age, she's fifty." Hinata answered.
Everyone but Naruto, Hinata and their harems gawked. Naruto and Hinata laughed at their faces, finishing their worlds story of how Sasuke tried to run away and how they ended up in their world.
"I'm surprised you didn't kill any Tamers." Leia made note as a slight compliment.
"Why's that?" Hinata asked.
"I mean considering your ideals in your world compared with ours. Any Tamer should've pissed you off." The Elf Queen explained.
Hinata and Naruto scratched the back of his head, "Well we spent two weeks in the mountains of Edo trying to find a village, and when we first saw a Pokégirl, I think a Bunnygirl, we freaked out." She replied.
The Bra-er Rabbit raised her head in interest, smiling, "You came across Bunnygirls?"
Naruto blushed, "It was the first time we've seen a naked girl," Hinata and him blushing as they lowered their heads.
Most of the Pokégirls giggled, including Naruto and Hinata's own harem, Jiroshi and Kitsuto snickered.
"Anyway after two weeks in the forests, a Tamer had come across us and mistook Hinata as a Pokégirl because of her eyes, and later her powers when fighting his Charmanda. I almost killed him because I thought he was calling Hinata a prostitute and wanted her, but he explained where we really ended up... I couldn't believe it at first, it was as if it was all just a dream and we'd hopefully just wake up."
They quieted down, "So how long have you been roaming our world under the radar?" Jiroshi asked.
"About half a year now." Hinata replied.
"How did you get your Tamer licenses?" Kawana asked curiously.
"We used a Henge to change our age three years older, after that we asked where we could get a rare Pokégirl, entered a contest and I ended up passing," Naruto laughed, puffing out his chest.
"We got the prize Pokégirl from Professor Kenzel." Hinata added.
Everyone paused, Jiroshi putting down his drink in realization, "The Professor Kenzel? The famed professor and captured recently exposed Trauma scientist? Him?"
"The very same." Hinata replied, "We hadn't known that though, we got the pokeball and left town and immediately let out the rare Pokégirl which is my alpha Tashira," Gesturing to the Dracass whom everyone looked at.
"She was a test subject for Team Trauma and she attacked us in panic, we had to calm her down and later she explained everything and we automatically knew they'd be after us so we set off to the border of Edo and Opal."
Jiroshi leaned forward in interest as the story progressed, hearing of Hinata's dream that told her to go somewhere, it reminded him of something... he just couldn't remember.
"It happened to be one of Sukebe's bases, Team Trauma's hunter squad caught up to us and we ended up taking the whole mountain down due to the battle and just barely escaped with our lives, Kiya was still a new member back then," Naruto continued, "We quickly went to have Kenzel confess and tied him up for the police, after that we took our time heading to Ruby league to stay under detection, and when camping in the mountains of Opal we ran across Yue and her Tamer being attacked."
Yue lowered her head, Hinata rubbed her shoulder in comfort, and Naruto explained that Trauma's trail had gone cold so they decided to head out.
"So that's when some huge boulder comes flying at us and destroys the balloon, we lose half our supplies and me and Kiya are injured. I later tried to do my Toad summoning to get some kind of contact to our world, but for some reason I just ended up summoning a Hottie, she freaked out and attacked us before dispersing."
Kawana jumped at that, "Hold on, you managed to summon one of Jiroshi's Hotties?" She asked in shock, everyone paused in confusion and surprise.
Naruto nodded, "I don't even know why, suddenly there was an influx of chakra before she appeared."
Jiroshi crossed his arms in thought at that, "That must've been Kawaki, so that's how you two met and why she thought to tell me." He muttered, "That's interesting, just like you and Jiraiya's summoning contract no one should be able to summon a Hottie without first signing my Hottie Pokegirl Pact."
"So what does that mean?" Kitsuto asked, "I thought the only ones who could summon Hotties were you, me and our Pokégirls?"
Jiroshi shrugged, "Well you and Naruto do share some strange spiritual link. When summoning your spiritual energy is sent through the pact you signed to where the Hotties are, they sense your spiritual link and it drags the Pokégirl out determining how much energy is being used to how strong the Pokégirl is... maybe the Pokégirls confused Naruto's spiritual link with Kitsuto's?"
Naruto sat back, finally he got an explanation, "Either way, it hurt too much to summon a Hottie, and I don't think I want to anyway. In fact we want to try and summon Espers."
Jiroshi, Kitsuto and the Pokégirls turned their attention back to him, "Espers? You know there are requirements for that right? Why do you wanna try to summon an Esper?"
Hinata narrowed her brows in seriousness, "We know it's a long shot, but Espers are able to travel between dimensions... so I thought..."
"You think the Espers are the only ones who can contact your world." Kitsuto realized, "But those are different dimensions, you guys live in a different Universe." He brought up.
Naruto grit his teeth in hope, "It's worth a shot." he muttered, "If that doesn't work, then we could at least use the Espers as back up."
"So is that why you're going through all this trouble? You're trying to find a way home." Jiroshi said.
"What else? We don't belong here, and it's been a long time since we've last seen our friends." Naruto replied."
Tashira tightened her fist, Kiya and Yue kept silent.
Jackie and Leeli glanced to each other; Jiroshi's Neo-Iczel spoke up, "Why would you want to leave? Our world's got all the sex, power and adventure you could want-"
"Iza!" Jiroshi cut off sharply, The Pokégirl drew back, the frog sage turned back to the two, "So what are your leads so far?"
Hinata sighed, "Right now we're heading to Scafell Pike in Blue League, and a Sukebe base might just be hiding there somewhere. With Sukebe's data we may find a way to get home. The Espers are another option, we're not really sure if it'll work but we'll keep trying."
"Now I understand." Jiroshi sat back, rubbing his chin in thought, after a moment he nodded his head with a thought in mind, "Would you mind wanting to visit the home of my Hotties tomorrow morning?" He asked, "Saturday's are when me and Kitsuto go to supervise their progress, every two weeks we go to tame them and it's about that time."
"Ehh! Kitsuto helps you tame the Hotties?" Naruto blurted.
Hinata blushed at the way Naruto phrased it.
Kitsuto groaned, "Trust me, it's more torture than anything else, half the day we talk, Jiroshi supervises how their training's been going so far, then the rest of the day is just non-stop taming, running me on stamina pills and healing shots." He muttered.
Jiroshi hit Kitsuto over the head, "Who are you to act like it's a punishment! Be glad I let you tame Pokégirls that aren't yours brat!"
Kitsuto held his head, coming at him in anger, "I never asked to tame your Pokégirls! You're just such a huge pervert that dug your own grave and you're trying to drag me down with you!" He yelled, the two getting in each other's face baring their teeth.
The more the argument went on about taming other Pokégirls the more Jiroshi's Pokégirls began to develop tick-marks, Tashira noticed that even Kyu was getting a tick-mark, arms crossed and eyes closed with a frown.
Tashira hypothesized that none of Kitsuto's Pokégirls liked the fact that he tamed Pokégirls that weren't in their harem.
Kawana wacked Jiroshi and Kitsuto over the head, "Stop bickering over who you're having sex with!" She yelled.
Jiroshi turned away crossing his arms, Kitsuto doing the same, "Kitsuto tames the ones who've just become Pokégirls and the Horny Toads, and I tame the more experienced Hotties and Horny Toads."
Naruto blinked, "You have Horny Toads with you?" He asked.
Jiroshi nodded, "Yeah, they're the only breed that can calm a Hottie down when she's riled up, other than me of course, but Hotties are my specialty." He replied.
Hinata had a deep red face, "Jiroshi-san, how can you possibly tame all of these pokégirls plus your summoning's before the end of the month, any other Tamer would be long past dead!'" Hinata asked in shock, disbelief, and slight embarrassment.
Jiroshi grinned, "It's because I'm the famed Horned F-" *Wack!*
"Give it a rest already you pervert!" Kawana yelled many of the Pokégirls there nodding their head.
"Ahh~ Sorry, sorry my dear, I'll stop." he surrendered nursing his head.
Naruto and Hinata raised a brow in surprise, "When you say it like that, I don't think I'd want to go." Naruto muttered.
"Yeah me neither." Hinata blushed.
Sayjin, Suya spat a bad taste in her mouth as she crossed her arms, "Honestly, he couldn't just have one, three or even ten, instead he's gotta have over fifty." She muttered angrily, the rest agreeing with her.
"You girls are supposed to be supporting me." Jiroshi sniffed sadly.
Kitsuto humphed, "You did this yourself you pervert."
Jiroshi rubbed his head turning over to Naruto and Hinata, "Besides, there's plenty more things to do there."
"So where exactly are these Pokégirl summons and how come they belong to you?" Hinata asked curiously.
Most of Jiroshi's Pokégirls raised their head in memory.
Jiroshi blinked, then sat back, "I keep them within a large spring tropic forest deep within the mountains of the Tropic league that is very hard to find, no one can get there without secret passage ways, nature made mind you, the entrance is hidden behind a waterfall. With the Governments permission I bought that spring. After that I set out to capture and tame the strongest Hotties I could find and form a summoning pact with them, that spring is their home, and with the help of parthenogenesis those strong Hotties create at least three a year, every Saturday I keep them tamed." He finished.
He looked at them, "So what do ya say? Wanna check it out?" He asked.
Naruto and Hinata stared at him incredulously, "Uh-... sure, but how?" Naruto asked confused.
Jiroshi hit a hand into his palm, "Just let me take care of that, anyway what happened after Kawaki left?" he asked, grinning at the future.
Hinata blinked, "We decided to head to the Blood - Crescent Moon border, we came across a resting ground and decided to take a rest. The next morning that's when Kitsuto ambushed us."
"Did not ambush! Kami, I just wanted to talk!"
A fist pounded the top of Kitsuto's head sending him under the table, "Kitsuto!" Kawana ground out, waving a fist threatening, "What have I told you about being confrontational!" She yelled.
Kitsuto sat up cradling his head, "I'm sorry! I didn't intend to fight, but I couldn't let him go and I knew he wouldn't want to tell me!" He exclaimed.
Kawana sat back with her arms crossed, a tick mark on her forehead as Kitsuto cradled his head with tears in his eyes in fright.
'Is that what I look like with Sakura?' Naruto wondered, it was strange seeing it happen before his eyes, he continued, "Anyway after we fought me and Hinata left with our harems, that night I let Myrel out for the first time since winning her... it didn't go well."
"Well whaddya expect, she's a Dracona. Don't you read your Pokédex?" Riza asked, the Whorizard awaiting an answer.
"Kitsuto broke mine in the fight." Naruto muttered.
"Mine too." Hinata chided.
All of Jiroshi's Pokégirls developed a tick-mark, even Jiroshi himself, "KITSUTO!"
"I'm Sorry~! Forgive me~!" He yelled, ducking under a plate being thrown at him.
"Jeez, after all we've done training him, the first time going away from the village and he does this." Rin complained, the Ronin not pleased with her student.
"Shame on you Kitsuto-chan!" Jiroshi's Flarea chastised.
Jiroshi sighed, "I'm sorry Naruto, Hinata. No matter how many times I tell the brat, he doesn't always listen." He apologized.
Naruto laughed and waved it off as he continued, "Anyway after talking with us the next morning we agreed to a deal, I took his two Katanas as assurance that he wouldn't attack us. He later told us that we were in fact wanted criminals on a world-wide scale." He continued.
"Ah yes I was gonna tell you about that in case you didn't know, that Team Trauma fiasco left a big impact in Edo's League. Rumors have it that even a Legendary's after you." Jiroshi replied.
"Unfortunately." Hinata mumbled sadly.
"What are we gonna do if she finds us?" Kiya muttered.
"Fighting I'd assume... or for some Legendaries they may even want to claim the two for themselves and just kill us." Yue replied.
"Either way we're in over our heads, we have Trauma, Legendaries, criminals, and the Government all after us." Tashira continued to make rain pour over them, the three lowered their heads and sulked.
Jiroshi narrowed his eyes, "If a Legendary is after you, then I can try to help you anyway I can."
*Glass Breaking*
"J-Jiroshi..." His Warcat stuttered.
Jiroshi turned a stern eye, immediately all his Pokégirls backs arched, "Understood?"
"Yes master!"
Jiroshi turned to him, "In any case you can't beat a Legendary, just run, or if she finds you amusing, try to tame her."
"You think we could actually capture her?" Naruto asked in shock.
"Hell no," Jiroshi shot down making Naruto and Hinata deflate, "But it's much harder for a Pokégirl to kill someone they like, from what you've told me of your world, you have a way of changing people. I think I can see it for myself as well... just maybe." He muttered in thought.
Shaking his head he looked at him, "I'll give you half a million credits ($5,000) to start you off,"
"Nice use of pocket change master." Kitsuto muttered sarcastically.
Naruto, Hinata, and their Pokégirl's eyes widened, jaw dropping, "W-what! You'd really do that!" Naruto croaked.
He shrugged, "Why not? I can give you a small allowance of a hundred thousand credits ($1,000) a month, that should also help you in your journey." He finished.
Hinata gawked like a regular fish, "Y-you... I don't know what to say!"
Jiroshi grinned and laughed, "What can I say, you've grown on me!" He replied.
"It's only been a day." Kitsuto sweat-dropped.
"Even still, I feel like I've known them as long as I've known you." Jiroshi replied, all the Pokégirls were left speechless, Kiya and Yue's fur were bushed out in shock, and Tashira still hadn't moved an inch since Jiroshi said the amount of money he'd give them.
"Anyway continue with your story." Jiroshi egged on.
Naruto struggled to find his voice, "After traveling for the week to reach the border I had managed to tame Myrel to keep her from going feral before another's days travel we reached the border. And so here we are," Naruto finally finished.
"Damn you kids have been through a lot in just a little amount of time." Suya commented.
"Imagine their reputation in a few years." Amelia replied, the Amachamp awing at the story, Jiroshi's Archmage couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Jiroshi sat back and sighed, "Jeez you kids sound like you've got a lot ahead of you. You don't need to worry about anybody coming after you, your secrets safe with us and our Pokégirls."
"Thank you Jiroshi-san." Hinata bowed her head.
Naruto leaned on the table closer to his counterpart, "I've been meaning to ask, how does Kitsuto perform psychic abilities, use Chakra, Chi, Kido and Magic? I've never seen that before! Not even in our time in this world."
Jiroshi smirked, "I'm not surprised. Each of these Pokégirls is Kitsuto's sensei, even the Iron Chef. I had come across Kitsuto fourteen years ago in the deepest caves of the Crescent Moon league Mountains." He began.
Naruto and Hinata paid close attention in interest and awe.
"When I was traveling I spent the night in a cave in one of the Crescent Moon League Mountains, I heard the sound of a crying child. Looking deeper into the cave I had come across a Kyubi, laying in care of a silver-haired child her offspring that she had recently given birth to, the Kyubi passed on her strong Psychic abilities to Kitsuto and he was blessed with quite a few blood gifts. As for myself I am born from a Hottie, the strongest in fact."
"The Kyubi was weak and didn't have long to live, with the Kyubi's psychic powers she gave me a vision: Me raising her child, just before she died. With no other choice, I took the child to my old master Saru the Monkey-type Monk Master or "Triple Master Saru", who lived in a small shrine long before this town was built; Anya over there is the Pokékit of Saru's Alpha Anma."
"I continued to travel and came back to visit every now and then. I always left a Pokégirl to train him, but after a Pokégirl swarm attacked Saru's shrine and he was killed, I decided to settle down and build a home for Kitsuto who was about eight then. I figured it was about time I settled down." He finished Kitsuto's story.
Jiroshi grinned, "In my travels I trained in many different energy natures that I found interesting and with me and my Pokégirls taught it to Kitsuto. As you know he still has a long way to go."
Resting his arms on the table Jiroshi leaned closer, "The reason I was able to teach Kitsuto those energy types is because everyone has the potential of those energies all suppressed deep within them to near nonexistence, the first one they find is usually the one they stick with. Like how you only use chakra." He explained, "But in order to bring those natures out you need to know the feeling of them, the atmosphere it represents."
"You're use to chakra and it gives you a certain feeling; while in order to perform Kido you have to have faith that your soul can physically protect you; Magic has a somewhat gloomy atmosphere; Chi involves affirmative action, aggressive and forceful, perhaps even a little rage. You need to know everything about an energy type, how it looks, how it feels, ways to draw it out and what it represents, only then can you actually put the energy type to use."
"Believe it or not, Pokégirls generate their own energy, dubbed 'Poke energy' because most don't know what to call it, but if you can master that you can also master Pokégirl attacks, some will also tie into elemental control, but that's for another time."
Hinata raised her brows in interest, "So you're saying even we could learn how to do it?" She asked.
Jiroshi nodded, "There's a good chance, but it takes extreme concentration and patience to separate those different energies once you get to using them. You see you can't use magic and chakra at the same time, neither will work, nor can you mix them together. You have to pick the energy out of the group to use it, separate it from the others in order for it to work, and it takes time to switch between those energies," He warned them.
"There are risks to mastering energies, switching between them back and forth is going to put strain on the body, your coils can't handle the different energies being funneled through other than what's its use to, it could destroy your body and render you disabled for a few weeks."
Kitsuto lowered his head.
"Is that what happened?" Naruto questioned the silver-haired counterpart.
Kitsuto grinned nervously, "I figured I could handle it."
"Idiot." Three Pokégirls muttered simultaneously.
Jiroshi sighed, palming his forehead, "After I specifically explained it to you." he muttered, "I don't know you."
"Master don't blame it on me! You're just a bad teacher!" He argued.
"To think you gathered all those skills and techniques in fifty years." Naruto commented.
"Eh?"
Jiroshi blanched, all of his Pokégirls, including Kitsuto and his harem all went silent as they stared at Naruto and Hinata, "Who told you I was fifty?"
"You thought Jiroshi was fifty?" Riza asked incredulously, Kami the man would be the best fifty-year old 'fucker' ever.
Hinata and Naruto shrunk under all the attention, "Well, Kitsuto said you had as many Pokégirls as your age.
Jiroshi blinked then developed a tick-mark turning to the silver-haired teen looking at him in fright, "Kitsuto told you I was fifty!"
"Hey don't pin that on me! I never said he was that old!" Kitsuto defended in annoyance.
"Well, not really." Hinata came to his defense.
The pervy Pokégirl master paused in confusion, "Then what made you think I was that old?" Jiroshi wondered in disbelief.
"Really, the dude looks thirty," His Neo-Iczel cut in.
"And fucks like a twenty year old." Jiroshi's Foxx added, giggling at the mere thought of Jiroshi being that old.
"We kind of assumed," Naruto muttered, "Pervy Sage is fifty and he's a master pervert to."
All the Pokégirls were silent, Kawana's eyes shifted back and forth before she burst out laughing, almost all of the Pokégirls followed suit, "Bwahhahahaahahahah!"
Jiroshi sweat-dropped feeling as if the laughs were directed toward him, "My counterparts a fifty-year old geezer? Aww man that's not fair." He whined.
"It actually fits in a way." Kitsuto laughed in amusement.
Under the laughs Hinata raised her brows, "Well how old are you Jiroshi-san?"
"Thirty-five." He replied sadly at the laughs that his counterpart was an old pervert.
Jiroshi shrunk into his chair.

They woke up early in the morning around seven, standing in the gardens Jiroshi looked at Naruto, Hinata and Kitsuto, "Everything's set, ready to go?"
"You bet!" Naruto grinned excitedly, both Naruto and Hinata dressed in T-shirts and jeans, there would be no need to bring any weapons or equipment with them as this was purely a visit, their Pokégirls were still sound asleep in bed.
"Is it safe to leave the Pokégirls unsupervised?" Hinata asked in concern.
Kitsuto grinned, "Trust me; Jiroshi's harem can take care of it."
Jiroshi nodded, "Alright, everybody grab hold. I'm going to perform a reverse summoning." He warned.
"You can do that?" Naruto asked.
Jiroshi smirked, quickly he put his hands together to concentrate energy, and almost like a blink of an eye they were gone.
*Yawn* Tashira rubbed at her eyes as she slowly sat up, looking around for a moment she remembered, "Oh yeah, Hinata and Naruto left for the Hotties summoning place." She muttered.
Tashira's eyes widened, 'Is that Hinata's equipment? She never leaves those.' She thought, spying Hinata's weapon holster, medical kit, and even the box with Tashira, Yue's pokéballs laying on the dresser, her combat clothing was neatly folded and placed beside her pack beside the dresser.
Glancing over to Yue who was curled into a ball and suckled on the tip of her tail, Tashira thought about what she was gonna do. Technically she was the Pokégirl in charge when Naruto and Hinata weren't here.
The first thing that popped up was training, but unfortunately they couldn't do the training that she liked. Tashira's brows lifted once she noticed something different, looking down she identified the foreign feeling, she felt heavier, 'My body doesn't feel as light as it did yesterday...' She realized, pulling down her tank-top she found no seal lodged between her breasts.
Tashira narrowed her eyes, 'Does that mean my body is more familiar with my actual weight?' Tashira swung her legs to the edge of the bed and stood up, 'Guess that can only be a good thing.' Her body was slowly adjusting, just needed time.
She took a step... and kicked the corner of the dresser two feet away.
"Tch-" She hissed holding her stinging foot, her back hit the ceiling knocking the wind out of her, 'Kk! When did I jump?' "Crap!" She hit the floor with an audible thud, Tashira laid there for a few seconds cursing her enhanced strength and loss of reality.
"Right... tch- A hop is a leap for a normal person..." She grunted, while she did feel heavier than yesterday and could move better than yesterday that didn't mean she had complete control.
"Ehh~?" Yue was looking over the bed rubbing at one of her eyes sleepily, "Tashira-sama, what are you doing down there? Come to bed~" She mewed as she hit the bed again curled up.
Breathing in and out Tashira slowly stood up, the strain on her muscles from 'Training' yesterday was worse than yesterday, her muscles incredibly sore. Carefully she took a step... then a second, Tashira's eyes widened, 'It's easier than yesterday. Just have to be careful.'
With great focus she walked without making a sound without meaning to.
Carefully Tashira walked down the hallway, intending to take a nice warm shower, she had gotten better, and to the normal eye she was walking half as fast as a regular person.
"Hey Dracass, where is Naruto."
Tashira frowned, focusing on making it to the bathroom, "Why." she muttered continuing to walk.
Myrel walked next to her, anger on her face, but it was slowly fading as she watched Tashira struggle to walk, "He balled me up in the middle of dinner!" she growled, tightening her fist.
"Naruto and Hinata aren't here. Go bitch to someone else." Tashira stated bluntly heading downstairs to the third floor, Tashira grit her teeth as her muscles were tensed in concentration as she began descending the stairs.
Myrel raised a brow, "They're not here? Where did they go?" She half demanded.
Tashira turned, "I dunno, why don't you go ask them?" She blew off, half smirking at the remark.
Myrel's left brow twitched, "Why the hell are you guys walking like that." It was beginning to annoy her.
Tashira panted slightly as she turned on the third floor, "A training accident, none of your business it doesn't concern you."
Myrel smirked seeing how much trouble Tashira was having, a small need for revenge riled up within her, "At least you're faster than yesterday." She stated.
"Tch, is that supposed to be a compliment?" Tashira scoffed.
"Not really." *Smack!*
Tashira froze, pain reverberated from her thighs up to her shoulders. Myrel smacked the back of her thigh in experimentation.
"Kk! What the hell!" Tashira roared, her tense muscles began to cramp, furiously Tashira swiped at Myrel but she simply took a step back.
Myrel smirked, laughing at her theory proven right, "What are you gonna do?" She taunted, quickly she smacked Tashira's other leg causing pain to travel up her body, Tashira grunted, shutting an eye in pain.
"I'm gonna kill you if you don't quit it!" She snarled.
Myrel snickered tapping her thigh with her tail Tashira let out a small whimper in pain, "Why you!" She swiped at Myrel but she was out of her reach.
*Tap-Tap-Tap* her tail tapping her thighs over and over as she chuckled, Tashira whimpered clinging to the wall, "Stop it!" She roared, a flare in her eyes as she lunged at Myrel surprising the Dracona.
Myrel blinked, staring at Tashira who straddled her with her hands wrapped around the Dracona's throat, Tashira glared at Myrel, Myrel smirked in return, "Something wrong?" noticing her reluctance.
- "But, if either one of you lay a hand on Myrel, you will be punished." He threatened. -
Tashira's glare slowly lessened, and for a moment Myrel was confused, the frustrated Dracass looked deep into her violet eyes.
"... I'm sorry... I attacked you that night." She reluctantly murmured, her voice sounding defeated as she released Myrel.
Myrel's brows rose, before narrowing them at her in question, she bared her teeth at the unexpected pacifistic behavior all of a sudden, "Well... damn, it's no fun if you don't fight back." She grumbled irritated.
"I'm not gonna fight you." Tashira looked at her seriously. - I expect for you to treat her like how you treat each other." Hinata ordered seriously. -
"Hn, so what you're giving up? Your masters aren't here, I was kind of hoping for round two." Myrel looked at her with a quirk, the two stayed silent for a few moments.
The thought passed quickly and Tashira sat up and crossed her arms in indifference, "Tch... No."
Myrel frowned.
Awkwardly she reached up and flicked Tashira's forehead, "... Ha." She sniped in victory.
"You're being childish." Tashira growled.
The Dracona sighed angrily, "It's boring if you don't retaliate..." Myrel muttered with a frown.
Staring into each other's eyes Myrel averted hers with a blush, "Are you gonna get off?" she didn't want a Pokégirl mistaking the scene like what happened with Kiya and her.
Tashira was noticeably holding back a whimper, "... My legs hurt too much." averting her own eyes in slight embarrassment, realizing that she was straddling Myrel in a strange way.
TTLTLTLT
Myrel groaned, "Unbelievable."
"Just shut up and carry me to the shower." Tashira ground out, being carried on the Dracona's back, they walked down the corridor.
Myrel glanced back to Tashira who had a shamed blush, "What's wrong with you guys anyway?" Myrel questioned.
Tashira sighed, "We were doing special training, but it didn't go as planned. Now we don't have control over our bodies." she ground out.
Myrel was silent for a few seconds, "Special training?" She repeated, looking ahead, "Does it have to do with Jutsu?" She asked, not that she knew what that was exactly.
Tashira's eyes widened slightly, "I'm not telling you anything more." The red-eyed Pokégirl shot down.
"Why are you guys so damn secretive!" Myrel growled.
"Just focus on dropping me off at the bathroom." Tashira replied.
"Can you at least tell me where Naruto went?" Myrel asked.
Tashira raised a brow, "I figured the last person you'd want to see is Naruto."
Myrel snorted, "Actually that would be you." Tashira grunted at that stubbornly.
"I could just drop you and beat the hell out of you." Myrel growled.
"Then why don't you?" Tashira challenged.
She didn't respond for a minute, and then she changed back to her original subject of interest, "Just tell me." Myrel demanded.
Tashira looked elsewhere for a second before finally answering, "Jiroshi took Naruto, Hinata and Kitsuto to where his summons live." She replied. After the shower she could have Myrel retrieve the PPHU and have Yue heals her, then she can heal Yue and Kiya's sore muscles as well.
Slowly Tashira's eyes widened as an idea bloomed in her mind.
TLTLTLT
~Yawn~ "Okay what's the big idea Tashira, why'd you wake us up?" Kiya moaned, glancing to Myrel, "And why is Dragon Breath here?" She asked.
Myrel developed a tick mark, "Stop calling me that!" She growled.
"Shut up, and I'll tell you." Tashira ordered, looking to Myrel the Dracona shrugged and took the PPHU off the dresser and gave it to the Dracass.
Yue's eyes shifted between the two Pokégirls.
"I just got an idea," Tashira started gesturing to the healing unit, "What does the Pokégirls healing unit do?"
Kiya blinked, "Heals you?" She replied absently, not knowing where she was getting at.
Tashira smirked, "Exactly, the healing unit heals any minor injury a Pokégirl has and restores them to full health as long as their pokéball is connected to it. Now, what all can a Pokégirl do within their pokeball?"
Yue's tail wagged in slight interest, "Anything that doesn't involve trying to break out, and your energy doesn't deplete at all even if you don't sleep; the pokéball is designed for conservation, storage and an educational device to get newly captured Pokégirls familiar with the human languages and customs as a basic. A Pokégirl could spend hours running in their pokéball, but their energy, endurance, and stamina remain at full. Although the pokéball doesn't heal any physical injuries a Pokégirl already has or receives while in the pokéball." Yue replied.
The side of Kiya's mouth twitched, "Show off."
Tashira grinned, "Exactly, there is no limitation that says that we can't train inside a pokéball, why do you think no Pokégirl does so on a daily basis?" She asked.
"No Pokégirl ever wants to, so far it's only been used as a place to sleep and wait." Myrel muttered.
Tashira nodded, "If we went into our Pokéballs and tried to train, due to our unique circumstances we'd end up destroying our muscles and perhaps worse, but, if our pokéball was attached to the healing unit it'd heal the damages as soon as they sprouted keeping anything beyond soreness from developing into a major injury." Tashira explained.
Kiya's eyes widened as she smiled wide, "Which means."
The Cheshire's tailed wagged in interest, "We can train endlessly in there and still be at full health once released. We'd achieve normality sooner than any outside training ever could." Yue finished, her eyes widened.
"That's my theory." Tashira agreed.
Myrel grew an amused expression, watching how the three Pokégirls developed a training method that no one had ever thought of before, "That's interesting."
Kiya's eyes sparkled, "You know this training method reminds me of that new Pokégirl show that's been on for the past year," She scratched her left ear in thought, "Uh what was it called? It's from Ultimate Legendary Ball, ya know with the Sayjin as the main character?"
Yue raised a brow, "… You talking about that thing in the show? What was it? The Amplified Longevity Chamber?" remembering watching that cartoon in the hotel back in Ruby League.
Kiya smashed a fist into her palm in remembrance, "That's right, that's what it reminds me of!"
"You watch too much television." Tashira sighed, before she looked over to the dresser, "Anyway, Hinata and Naruto left their equipment here, including..."
Yue smiled, "Our pokéballs."
Kiya grinned, now excited, "Okay, so how do we do this?"
Tashira turned back to the two, "Only two pokéballs can be connected to the healing unit at a time. Yue and I will go first while you watch over us, in an hour let us out to see if it worked."
- "Hmph, some dragon-type you are! Can't even trust you to watch our backs against ferals!" -
Myrel frowned, "You don't trust me."
"Well just a few nights ago you were at each other's throats." Yue reminded, Myrel snorted crossing her arms and turned her head away.
Kiya's tail spiked, "Wait! Why am I the first to stay out, it should be the Alpha's first." She fumed.
"Myrel's your Harem contestant." Tashira replied evenly as she got up, slowly walking over to retrieve their pokéballs.
Tossing Yue her pokéball she snatched it out of the air without missing a beat.
"Wish us luck." Tashira muttered, slowly walking over to the PPHU she placed the pokéball in one of the slots before pressing the button Tashira materialized into red light and into her pokéball.
Yue turned a careful eye to Myrel, and then to Kiya, "Remember, one hour." She repeated.
"I got it, I got it." Kiya assured.
Yue materialized into red light and returned to her pokéball.
...
Kiya stared at the machine as she crossed her arms, huffing impatiently.
Myrel glanced at the Kitsune; in turn Kiya turned a wary eye at her.
"Don't think about trying anything dragon breath," Kiya warned as she stretched, "~Yawn~ I'm not letting my guard down for one second."
Myrel's fingers twitched, "Stop calling me that... I have a name."

Yue looked around her storage home, "It feels like forever since I've been in my pokéball." she muttered. Looking down into her palms she could already feel the healing unit do its work in easing her sore muscles and rejuvenate her.
Yue sighed, standing there she closed her eyes and waited for her sore muscles to completely fade, within five minutes the soreness and aches ceased to exist and back to full health.
The purple-furred feline tightened her fist, "Better see if it works."
The Cheshire observed her surroundings, a bed, slight exercise equipment, and food. Other than that there was white as far as the eye could see, she could go as far as she wanted, but no matter what she knew the way back to this little setup.
Closing her eyes she braced for pain before she sprinted, it was as if everything around her turned black with little wisps of stars going by at first. Yue cried out, she couldn't sense anything, sight lost on her and she literally felt her muscles begin to tear; her chest began to hurt, her heart struggling to keep up.
On impulse and panic Yue slowed down, trying hard to come to a complete stop, she gasped resting a hand on her chest, panting painfully for a few seconds before Yue froze, 'I'm... already healing!'
The healing unit couldn't heal anything beyond minor injuries, a shattered leg, lost arm, they were gone, muscles ripped to shreds? Kiss her Pokégirl career goodbye; but the healing unit wouldn't let minor injuries develop into major ones, they continued to repair and repair until it was all healed.
Yue stared at her hands in shock, 'The pain's gone...'
Looking behind her she could no longer see her resting center, but she knew where it was located, every Pokégirl could wander and if released from their pokéball and then returned they would appear back at the resting center.
Yue slowly smiled, softly giggling, "Tashira was right."
She attempted to walk normally, it was as if she was teleporting spot to spot, but she didn't stop like she did when trying to walk outside, she continued in stride, her straining muscles continued to heal but the pain was all too real, it hurt for a moment and then healed, over and over again.
"This seems so surreal." Yue muttered as she walked like she was used to, but to anyone else she would appear to be running.
Yue looked down, it was strange, she felt like she was walking, but in reality she was going at a sprint. She paused for a second to let the soreness heal before continuing to walk.
"Naruto said that our muscles, nerves, heart and brain can't keep up with the strain because our senses didn't know what was happening. So in response the heart and brain didn't know how fast or how slow to react," Yue slowly went into a slow jog.
The body responded to what it saw, felt, tasted and the like, "So if I train to try and catch the movement of my body, my body will respond to what I see and feel."
She stared intently at her legs, trying to catch each individual leg taking a step instead of seeing blurs, it was confusing and made her slightly dizzy, it was as hard as trying to keep her eye on one of the disks in a spinning fan.
Yue smirked, 'But at this rate, it shouldn't take longer than a couple weeks to get back to normal.' Although unlike that show with the chamber, time didn't go slower than it did outside.
At first going this speed was foreign to her, but she was slowly getting used to it and in turn getting a better understanding of it, this would help her determine how much energy to use when using techniques, what was excessive or not.
Perhaps she could try teleportation to test how far she could go without having to worry about dying, her ears perked up in thought, 'I could use my blood to place markings where I end up.' That way she could regulate how much energy she needed to use for the teleportative distance that she had been used to.

~Poof~
Kawaki raised her head in excitement, much like many of her Hottie sisters.
"Oh? Jiroshi's here!" Her sisters exclaimed excitedly as they clamored around the smoke that signified Jiroshi's reverse summoning.
"And so is Kitsuto-chan~" Some gushed.
Kawaki sat up, smiling in excitement; it was time for their taming. The young amphibious Pokégirl blushed with a perverted smile, rushing to the smoke as it began to clear, "Jiroshi-sama! Kitsuto-chan!" She called out.
Until she spied two others, she wasn't the only Hottie that was surprised to see two other Tamers, Kawaki's eyes widened in recognition. Seeing the blond boy and dark blue haired girl's eyes looking around in amazement, Naruto's eyes fell onto her.
Kawaki pointed at him in anger, "Hey! You're that blond kid that looks like Kitsuto-chan!"
Naruto's jaw dropped pointing at her, "You're that Hottie who attacked us!" he yelled.
Kawaki glared at him, "I didn't know who you guys were! You could've been trying to Pokénap me!"
"We didn't do anything! Just because you didn't know us didn't mean you had to attack us!" He argued, the two baring their teeth and growling at each other.
"Naruto-kun calm down!" Hinata ordered putting a hand on his shoulder.
Kawaki and Naruto paused, "Eh?"
Kitsuto rested his arms behind his head and laughed, "Kawaki-chan there's no need to worry, he's family."
Kawasuna one of Kawaki's elder sisters walked up, "Even so, why did you bring them here Jiroshi?" She demanded, covering her chest with a glare, many other Hotties covering up their most private of flesh from the two teens they weren't familiar with as they glared.
Naruto and Hinata stopped moving, Naruto blushed hard, Hinata's face also turned red, "I should've known they'd be naked." Naruto muttered.
There were at least Thirty Hotties mostly green in color with a few different colored stripes, but there were also others but they didn't match the description of a Hottie, but instead Naruto realized that they were Horny Toads not as many as there were Hotties, at least fifteen of them.
All together some lounged about in the pond, the grass, at the spring waters that had steam coming from it, or by the waterfall that dropped off into a river a hundred feet below. Looking out Naruto saw steep mountains forming a ring around the paradise, as far as ten acres he could see were beautiful springs, and tropical forests.
Hinata awed at the sheer beauty and size of this place, "Waah! Sugoi this place is really beautiful!" She whispered in astonishment Naruto could only nod.
Their attention turned to countless colored frog-type and toad-type Pokégirls, ranging in height, and going from muscular to slender. A majority of them covered themselves and blushed angrily, others blushed and looked away or smiled and giggled... the horny toads in fact.
Naruto felt a shiver run up his spine, feeling most of the killer intent directed toward him as well as Jiroshi.
"They're not gonna tame us as well!" Kawamiyu declared, her decision made just daring Jiroshi to disapprove, many others echoing her decision.
Jiroshi waved them off, "Don't worry they're not gonna tame anyone here."
"Good because we wouldn't let them anyway!" Kawamiyu retorted.
Jiroshi bared his teeth, a bulging vein showed at the side of his temple, "I already said they weren't so shut it!" He yelled.
"You shouldn't have brought them to begin with you pervert!" She yelled.
"You can't tell me who I can't bring!" Jiroshi argued.
"Then you aren't going to tame me!" She boiled; steam literally rising off her as her body heat rose.
Jiroshi crossed his arms turning away, "Hmph, fine by me."
Kawamiyu paused, and then her face turned red, lunging at Jiroshi, "You're so cruel you jerk!"
Hinata sweat-dropped, 'These Hotties attitude remind me of someone... but I can't remember who.' Watching as Hotties roared her on as she tried to undress Jiroshi then and there.
Naruto's eye twitched as he and Hinata shared a glance.
Kitsuto sighed, "See what I mean, nothing but trouble." He muttered to the two.
"What was that Kitsuto-CHAN! You have something to say!" A Hottie turned to him raising a fist warningly.
Sweat dripped down his neck as he perked up, "Not at all Miss Kawata." waving his hands as he laughed awkwardly.
The horny toads either sighed or played peacemaker it was like this almost every Saturday. Half an hour later Jiroshi and the three teen tamers were standing beside each other, the Hotties and Horny Toads laying around to hear him introduce who Naruto and Hinata were.
Rubbing his throat where the Hottie was strangling him he turned to Naruto and Hinata, "Ahem- Naruto, Hinata I'd like you to meet *Clear throat* my summonings, Kawakasu there's the strongest and the oldest here second to my alpha Kawana who's the leader. Kawakasu here's in charge of everything that goes on here,"
A dark green colored Hottie waved, standing proudly whilst naked, Hinata could clearly see that she was the most muscular here aside from Kawana, and from what Hinata could remember on their data, the larger their breasts were then the more mellow they were and again she clearly had the largest bust here.
Jiroshi raised a brow, "Which reminds me where are the Pokékits?" He asked Kawakasu.
She pointed her thumb down the waterfall, "Out training with Kawakanu. After you're done introducing those two you can hurry with checking our progress, the quicker we are to the Taming the better." She replied, glancing to a certain Hottie, "Kawamiyu could certainly use it."
Said Pokégirl crossed her arms and turned her head away, "Hmph!"
Jiroshi nodded, "Everyone listen, these two here are dimensional travelers, the blond here is Kitsuto's counterpart that comes from another world, his name is Naruto Uzumaki, he is fourteen. The girl, is his girlfriend Hinata Hyuuga who is the same age-" Hinata blushed, "Which is why Kitsuto and him look alike, I brought them here to see you guys because Naruto's told me that he too has a master, my counterpart who is a Toad Sage." He explained.
Many awed and ooh'd, all turning their eyes to the two who blushed at the attention.
"That explains it!" Kawaki exclaimed in understanding.
"That makes things more interesting." Gamashia a Horny toad replied amused.
Kawasuna walked up behind Naruto and Kitsuto and rested her webbed hands on their head as she grinned, "Jeez you two really do look alike Kitsuto-chan." the elder Pokégirl teased.
Kitsuto grinned, "He's like a spiritual brother!" He laughed.
Naruto scratched his cheek as he grinned as well, laughing with Kitsuto.
Kawaki leaned forward staring at Hinata's breasts; Hinata blushed realizing Kawaki was so close, "Kami, for a fourteen year old you're pretty hot." Kawaki complimented grabbing the Tamer's breasts Hinata whimpered, they were almost as big as hers and she was fifteen.
"K-Kawaki was it?" She stuttered nervously at the nude Hottie feeling her chest.
"Yeah that's me, sorry for attacking you guys." She apologized, letting go as she stood up rubbing her neck with an embarrassed blush.
Hinata shook her head, "No, its fine you don't need to apologize, I would've done the same thing if that happened to me."
Walking up to the four Kawata interrupted, "Don't mean to break in on the introductions but can we get to the supervising already?"
Jiroshi blinked, "Ah right, Naruto, Hinata let's go then."
"You're just gonna leave me out!" Kitsuto asked irritated as the three began to head down to the tropic forest to see the Pokékits training. Kitsuto hurried to their side as the Hotties and Horny Toads followed and lead.
"Well Jiroshi's not the most responsible person." A Hottie comforted, patting Kitsuto's back.
"What's that supposed to mean Kawasayu? I'm plenty responsible!" He replied quickly to defend his pride.
"That makes me curious, aren't some of these Hotties Pokéwoman?" Naruto asked.
"A few of us yeah."
"So how come you guys... ya know, don't settle down and have children of your own? With Jiroshi?" Naruto asked slowly.
Everyone stopped moving as they all turned to stare at Naruto, then they looked at each other before bursting out laughing, "I'd rather die than let Jiroshi be a father of my child, he'd be horrible at it!" Kawahaya laughed.
Jiroshi's eye twitched, "I wouldn't be that bad as a parent." He stated heart-broken.
Kawata snorted, "Please just look how Kitsuto turned out." She gestured, "He only spent half of his life with him."
"Hey I turned out just fine!" Kitsuto cut in, "Don't drag me into Jiroshi being a bad adult role model." He finished, crossing his arms.
Jiroshi sulked.
"We should just take Kitsuto off Jiroshi's hands and raise him with us." Kawaru teased as she grabbed Kitsuto's cheek, other Pokégirls giggling and teasing encouragingly.
Kitsuto blushed, "Yeah right, just so I can be your little sex toy for all eternity! Besides I like fox-types!"
"Oi, oi being a sex toy isn't so bad." Kawako replied sensually blowing into his ear.
"You girls are mean!" Kitsuto cried as they continued to giggle and laugh at his expense, "Master help me!"
Jiroshi grinned, "Girls, girls... Kitsuto is just a teenager," Kitsuto sighed, "His dick is entirely too small to satisfy all of you, he doesn't have endurance, stamina, and gusto!" Jiroshi exclaimed as he laughed.
Naruto and Hinata covered their mouth, "Ooh~"
"Gee, I feel so loved." Kawako muttered.
Kitsuto turned red in the face, "Damn you, you pervert! You're supposed to be defending me not insulting me you jerk!"
Kawakasu turned to Naruto, "The truth is that we can't allow Jiroshi to father all of our children, so we will instead remain independent."
Hinata blinked, "Why's that?"
Kawahaya answered, "Because Jiroshi will get old and lose his ability to summon us, and Kitsuto doesn't want to take us on as his summonings, nor would we want him to with his scent, he's cute... just not master material, in short, When Jiroshi dies it will be the end for the summoning pact."
"This place will be a Hottie and Horny Toad hot spot for future Tamers after I die is what they mean." Jiroshi explained.
Hinata lowered her head, "That sounds kind of sad, don't you want a family of your own?" She asked the current Pokéwomen who'd die without raising their own family.
"Ehh not really, I'm content with being summoned and fighting till I die." One replied, the rest of the Pokéwomen agreeing as well.
Kawaki rested a hand on Hinata's back, "It's just what they've all agreed upon and they don't really care."
Reluctantly Hinata nodded.
"Oi Hinata? Are you alright, your muscles aren't being overworked are they?" Naruto asked in concern, she had progressed faster than he thought, at the moment she just appeared to be limping but she didn't seem at all hurt.
Hinata blinked, a small red hue coloring her cheeks, "Actually I feel fine Naruto-kun." She replied calmly.
She wasn't sore, her Youki wouldn't allow her to be, much like Naruto her Youki reacted to injuries on its own. Did her Youki develop into a defense mechanism like Gaara? It was possible, either way she didn't question it, rather she thanked it because it allowed her to recover control of herself much faster. Her muscles and soreness would only last at least half an hour before her Youki healed it.
With her Youki healing her injuries, her Byakugan and good chakra control, getting back to normal wouldn't take too long, she just had to remember to not go overboard like Naruto, because not even she was able to heal from everything.

"Hm." Myrel hummed, Kiya's pokéball in her hand as she stared at it, the Kitsune had dozed off on the watch fifteen minutes in, the Dracona looked over to Tashira and Yue's pokéballs in the healing unit.
Myrel pondered a thought for a while before shaking her head, "I'll let her out when the hour's up, she should still be asleep." dropping her pokéball on the bed she left the room and headed for the guest room given to Naruto.
The violet-eyed draconic narrowed her eyes, now was the only chance she'd get to do this, 'Naruto won't tell me, and neither will their Pokégirls...' She thought, entering the room her eyes traveled every corner, then spied the dresser and like she expected, lay Naruto's equipment.
Closing the door she observed the room, the curtains closed left the room dim and only added to her suspense.
Slowly she walked toward the dresser, "What are you hiding Naruto."
First she grabbed the weapon holster, the supply pouch, then the medical kit, his clothes and the bag filled with supplies and laid them across the bed. She turned up her head, then left only to come back with Hinata's supplies as well.
She had to be careful to cover her prints, if anything was out of place then either the Pokégirls or Naruto and Hinata would realize that someone had gone through their stuff.
"Why would beginning Tamers carry these kinds of weapons." Myrel muttered as she looked through their weapon holsters, kunai, shuriken, senbon, and paper rectangles with markings on them.
She had heard of Tamers wanting to fight with their Pokégirls, but it didn't usually involve such strategic weapons, "This is something a Kunoichi would have, are they trying to be ninja?" She asked, she thought about all that she knew of the two mystery Tamers.
'All I know is that Naruto can change his appearance...' They hadn't demonstrated any exceptional fighting skills, but still these were fourteen year old teenagers, how could they possibly put any of these weapons to use?
Narrowing her eyes she moved onto the supply pouch, some medical salve, healing and regenerative shots.
Looking over their clothing she noticed the durability of the fabric. Looking over to the two bags filled with supplies she dumped Naruto's bag out, nothing but scrolls came out.
Curiously she opened the first one, then her eyes widened, "It's all written in Japanese." She muttered, okay so English wasn't their first language, she couldn't read any of this.
She gritted her teeth and almost desperately she opened up the scrolls one by one to find Japanese writing on them. Dumping out Hinata's bag she found much of the same thing.
"Great." She fumed as she sat down next to the pile of scrolls, their secrets could all be written on those scrolls and she couldn't read it. Glancing over to the opened scrolls she stared at the markings.
Then she raised a brow, "What the-" Myrel muttered, on every one of them there was a box marking, a few words above it with an arrow pointed to the square. Picking up the scroll she unfurled it and looked over the Japanese markings, there were hand-sized squares after every few sentences and small arrows pointed toward them.
She stared at it for a while; raising her hand she went to touch it, nothing. Myrel sighed as she laid her palm on the square, giving up.
*Poof* Myrel's heart skipped a beat, a sudden very small portion of her energy was sucked away and in place of lost energy, another scroll came into existence from nowhere.
Myrel narrowed her eyes, "Jutsu..." She mumbled, was this it, was this some sort of magic spell book or something? Could Naruto use magic and that's how he could change his appearance? She had only heard of such things.
Unfurling the new scroll, she expected it to be in Japanese, instead it was in English, but it wasn't what she hoped for 'Pokégirl Psychic Techniques' the scroll was labeled, and that's all that was in it, anyone could find these at their local library and buy at the PokéMart.
Myrel frowned, going back to the scroll with Japanese markings she looked at the back of it, 'Yue's Scroll' was labeled on it.
Glancing between the two scrolls she snorted, "Is she trying to learn new psychic techniques?" She questioned, either way it didn't matter, this scroll didn't belong to Naruto and Hinata's. Turning the scroll over she looked back to the square she put her hand on, 'How do I put it back?'
If it took energy to release it, then did all she need to do was push energy into it? Placing the scroll of Pokégirl techniques on the square she pushed her energy into it, and like expected: it poofed out of existence.
"Interesting." Myrel muttered, rolling the scroll back up she looked over the scrolls and separated them. Putting the scrolls labeled, Tashira, Yue and Kiya to the right, she went over the rest.
She couldn't find any of them labeled Naruto and Hinata so she assumed the rest belonged to them. Medical; Weapons; Training equipment; Pokégirl data; Clothing; Camping equipment; Data, these were the rest, the only one that had any significance to her that might reveal what Naruto and Hinata were hiding was the 'Data' one.
Although just to be thorough she decided to check them all. The Medical merely contained medicine and books about medicine, what it did, how to make it, the side effects. Weapons contained more shuriken, senbon, kunai, paper with marking on them, steel ninja wire, and two swords. Training equipment had Gi's, papers with markings, and books that had to do with training like meditation, exercises, Pokégirl training methods, how to heighten your senses and yoga. Pokégirl data contained books on every Pokégirl's dex' entries, and another book containing public information on Legendary Pokégirls, more Pokégirl element techniques, and finally 'Pokégirl Animalistic Behavior & Instincts'
Myrel stared at the book.
- She could see him nod slowly, "Are your instincts telling you that?" He asked. -
She snorted, "Should've figured."
The clothing scroll was in two basic parts: combat and casual. Camping equipment held sleeping bags, lanterns, cooking equipment and canned foods. And finally the Data scroll.
The first was a book containing all Primer information of each league. Growing restless Myrel unsealed another, and out came a scroll listed with different types of food, it had Naruto's name on it.
Myrel blinked, "The idiot made an entire scroll listing his favorite foods?" first she thought it was nothing, but then the title caught her attention, 'Favorite foods in this world' Myrel stared at it, what did he mean by this world?
"Strange title." She muttered, still, it didn't convince her of anything, the next held slightly more significance.
'Naruto's Jutsu List' that word, Myrel looked at the contents and didn't know what to make of it, "What's a Rasengan?" She murmured, strange names with letters beside them, apparently a ranking system.
Was this a list of magic? Was Naruto able to use magic? It'd explain his ability to shape shift, her suspicion grew as she tried to figure something out, so she put it aside for later.
There were only two more squares on the scroll, so she opened them both.
It left her speechless, "Kenzel's notes... and Artemis's journal entries?" She whispered. Did it mean the Professor Kenzel? The recently exposed Trauma member? Was Naruto a fan of his work, it was natural for a young Tamer to have an idle, but these notes contained the Dracass's evolutionary path and blueprints to some strange machine!
Her hands shook, not understanding what she was looking at, 'Artemis's entries... it has Hinata's name on it... does she mean the General Artemis? Is that possible?' Everyone knew Artemis yes, but these files, they contained the thought process of almost every Pokégirl, it had the sketches and information on cloning and splicing methods of Sukebe's original work!
They were written quickly in Hinata's handwriting, it seemed she had wrote it down so as not to forget, but where did she get the source of this information! Artemis's entries skipped around from subject to subject so Hinata must've been writing off memory.
Her eyes widened, Scafell Pike... was in Blue league.
- What was so urgent about getting to Blue league? What did they have to do that was so important?
Myrel tapped the side of her head, "Let's see, what goes on in Blue League." -
Myrel fell onto the bed in exhaustion, staring at nothing for a moment, and staying silent for several as she tried to make some kind of sense out of this.
"Who the fuck are you guys?"
