So, this is the first and last time that my ranger story and current story are on the same chapter! I'm positive this will never happen again! Please review!
Sonikah: Yeah! No.
Some guy named Blaze: Never know! ; )
The Black Okami: Okay, I'll do that.
Ajwf: Sorry.
Guardian54: I agree with you on all points. Especially with the whole kicking in the balls thing. That is definitely not good.
Mobiusfan: Yeah, maybe.
Moemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia
Chapter 19
I ran through a dark hallway, followed by… something. The only thing it was that told me I was being followed was the sound of footsteps echoing behind me. I turned around a dark corner and found myself face to face with an enormous wall.
The footsteps continued to echo closer and closer to me, and I spun around to face the shadowy figure standing before me.
"It's time, Kellyn…" The figure's voice boomed, stepping closer. "It's time…"
I awoke, sitting up, sweat falling down my face.
"Kellyn…" Petal whispered, standing in my doorway.
"Petal…" I panted. "You almost gave me a heart attack…"
"Sorry…" Petal whispered, sitting down on the bed next to me. "Nightmare?"
"Yeah…" I said, nodding.
"Tell me about it." Petal said, staring at me with a concerned expression- a rarity for her.
"No…" I said, trying to bring images from my foggy brain. "No, it's gone…"
"Oh…" Petal said, looking down.
"So why are you here?" I asked.
"I thought, well, maybe…" Petal said, frowning. "We should talk about this problem we've been having, and have sex…"
"No." I said immediately. "Well, no to the sex part at least."
"Why?" Petal asked, surprised.
"I don't want you to have sex with me because it might fix our relationship." I explained. "We can't have a relationship based solely on sex. So we'll talk."
"Alright." Petal said, staring at me. "Let's talk."
"How are we going to move past this?" I asked.
"Alright…" Petal said, thinking. "Do you still have feelings for that girl you met five years ago?"
"No." I said, shaking my head. "What about you?"
"You're the only person I have feelings for." Petal said, wrapping her arms around me. "I love you, Kelly."
"Me too." I said, hugging her back.
"Can I stay in here?" Petal asked.
"Okay, but no sex." I answered.
"Cuddling?" Petal begged.
"…Alright, cuddling." I gave in, pulling the sheets of the bed over us.
"Oh, big strong Kelly!" A figure standing in a tree, staring down at the two, said in an obviously faked high voice to mock what Petal was whispering to her boyfriend. "Can we please have sex?"
"Sorry, Petal!" The figure said in a deeper voice to mimic Kellyn. "But I don't think sex will help us!"
"Oh, I see." The figure said in the high voice. "My sister used to be gay."
"Ah!" The figure said in the deep voice. "I understand! Let's just lie here like two girls should!"
"Well, Kelly," the figure said in a voice that was neither ridiculously high or deep, "you've got more problems on your hands then just your relationship. For example, your old pal Aurore, my getting the Shadow Crystal, and oh yeah, the small matter of me killing you and taking over the world with the powers of darkness."
I awoke that morning to the nice feeling of Petal in my arms, snuggled up against me. And we were both in our pajamas, which was a good sign.
We left my room after changing into our uniforms, and were surprised to see that Barlow wasn't there.
"Where's Barlow?" Petal asked, frowning.
"Well, he had urgent business in Boyleland, so he went there." Crawford said, smiling. "Today's the one day intern at the ranger school. Barlow was scheduled to do it, but because he's gone, he told you two to do it."
"Yay, we get to go back to our old school!" Petal said, smiling. "This ought to be fun!"
"Yeah, real fun…" I sighed. The two of us reluctantly headed out down the path to the ranger school. I considered taking Doduo, but decided that it would be extra work for her, and we barely had any distance to go.
"Wait, master!" A voice shouted. I turned around to see Nyu and Kurou standing behind me, frowning.
"Um, hey, guys…" I said, frowning.
"Sorry, but I'm Kelly's partner moemon this time." Petal said, wrapping her arms around mine. This caused images of Petal calling me master and wearing cat ears, meowing erotically. I think I lost consciousness at that point.
"Hey, Kelly!" Petal called, shaking me awake. "Are you okay? You blacked out there!"
"Yeah…" I said, wiping the warm liquid off from under my nose. "I think just the mental image of you being my partner moemon was kind of… stimulating."
"Oh, I just figured something out…" Petal said, smiling sultrily. "Now I know exactly what'll get you all hot and bothered, master…"
"Um…" I said, blushing, turning away from her.
"You still haven't told us which one of us will come with you!" Nyu said.
"Well, I haven't exactly made my decision yet, with the whole blacking out thing…" I said, sitting up, rubbing my head. "Alright, in all fairness, I think Kurou should come with me, since Nyu got to last time.
"Aw…" Nyu said, looking down dejectedly, Kurou happy.
"Thank you, master!" Kurou said, hugging me.
"But master, you've got me, don't you?" Petal asked, smirking.
I blacked out once more, blood spurting from my nose.
"Can we please just go?" I asked, frowning.
The three of us headed out towards the ranger school, reaching the bridge. However, there was a woman standing on the bridge in front of us, blocking the way. She wore leather pants and a black cleavage revealing top, with a leather trench coat and black hair down to her shoulders and violet eyes.
"Who are you?" Petal asked, frowning.
"You don't remember me?" The woman asked, frowning. "I see…"
"What do you want?" I asked, frowning. Something about this woman seemed… off.
"Here." The woman said, handing me a blue and black moemon egg. "Raise the child that hatches from that egg."
"Wait, who are you?" Petal asked, frowning.
"Who I am isn't important." The woman said, frowning, walking away.
I may just be an innocent bystander… She thought, walking down the bridge. But I won't let you have your way, Aurore.
So, who is Aurore? Well, let's find out!
