Chapter 42 The Telling

Jack nearly lost his balance, steadying himself. "Excuse me?" Jack asked, still trying to process who it was in front of him.

Black hair, intense red eyes, and an angular face appeared before him. His eyes moved to her body. She had a dark pink dress on, covering what appeared to be Lusamine-sized breasts. Thin black sleeves covered her arms, and black leggings jutted out from the bottom of her dress.

"I need to speak to you alone, Mr. Cobal, the matter is of great importance," Sabrina said intensely. It was then he noticed Sabrina had an Alolan Blue in her hand and she presented it to him.

"Okay..." Jack muttered, eyeing Sabrina suspiciously. This was the "Sabrina" Lillie was terrified of, who Lusamine had referenced on his first day in Alola, and who could allegedly see the future. Noticing the Alolan Blue in her hand, Jack smiled. "Well that's quite a coincidence."

"I got it for you, Mr. Cobal," Sabrina said, handing the glass to him. "If you'll follow me please."

Jack turned to his entourage and smiled. "Gimme a couple minutes."

Hilda had a grave look on her face, and she turned to Zinnia and whispered in her ear, to which Zinnia nodded.

"Okay, Sabrina was it? Where to?" Jack asked.

Sabrina pointed to the floor-to-ceiling windows, and Jack noticed there was an outside deck. Jack followed Sabrina through the ballroom, his eyes drifting down to her impressively curvy hips even under her dress. He turned around to see where Zinnia was, and she followed him about ten feet back, a no-nonsense look on her face. "Well that's good," he muttered as he turned back around.

Sabrina opened the door leading to the deck where a "reserved" sign was stuck to the see-through door. Jack felt blood rush to his loins as he eyed Sabrina's fertility goddess body-type. "Why do potential enemies have to be so hot?" he thought to himself as Sabrina held the door for him, closing it as he emerged onto the deck, the warm Alolan breeze hitting his face against the setting sun in the back ground.

"Hey!" Zinnia protested.

"It's okay, it will just be a few minutes. No harm will come to him," Sabrina said authoritatively.

Zinnia bared her teeth. "That better be the case."

Sabrina rolled her eyes. "It will."

Jack took a sip of his drink, noting it wasn't as strong as the ones Lusamine had been buying him earlier. "Or maybe I'm just really buzzed," Jack thought.

"Lusamine's Alolan Blues are too strong for this conversation," Sabrina said, a certain intensity in her tone that made him fear and respect her at the same time.

"This conversation... you seem deathly serious about it."

Sabrina nodded. "Correct."

"So what did you want to talk about?" Jack said.

"I take it Lusamine mentioned me to you?" Sabrina asked.

"Briefly."

"Did she mention my abilities?" Sabrina asked, her gaze narrowing on him.

"I think she implied something, that you somehow knew an event was going to happen in the future," he said, trying to delicately get it across he was mildly aware of her alleged psychic powers, but not wanting to mention he'd gotten the specific information from Lillie. He then realized if Sabrina was actually psychic, then she already knew where Lillie was and about the trap. The revelation happening in an instant as he tried to maintain his poker face.

"I don't want to beat around the bush, Mr. Cobal. I have psychic abilities."

"Psychic? Like telekinesis? Like an Alakazam?" Jack asked.

Sabrina scoffed and shook her head, a smirk escaping her steely facial expression. "Not quite. But I have visions of the future."

"That's a handy gift to have," Jack joked. "Wish I had something like that. It would make pokemon battles a lot easier."

"I did use my gift for pokemon battling, for a time," Sabrina explained. "I don't have a constant stream of future events going through my mind. I just occasionally have visions of varying importance."

"I take it you want to speak to me about a rather important one."

Sabrina nodded. "I was a renowned trainer in the Kanto region, but one day I foresaw the events that would lead to a world-altering cataclysm."

Jack grimaced. "So you think I can help?"

Sabrina paused, saying nothing as she glared at him, making him feel two feet tall.

"You are the only way to prevent the catastrophe."

Jack scoffed. "I highly doubt that."

Sabrina sighed. "I didn't know who you were when I first saw you in my visions, I just knew that you would end up in Alola, and so I left my trainer career behind and joined the Aether Foundation, as they would have a role to play. It is that important."

"You're seriously saying the planet is in jeopardy because I'm here in Alola?" Jack asked.

"The planet is in jeopardy, whether you are the catalyst for the event or just the last line of defense has not been made clear to me."

Jack smiled in disbelief, but decided to play along. "So how would this happen? What world-altering force can be found here in Alola?" he said dismissively.

"Are you familiar with the being known as 'Necrozma?'"

Jack shook his head. "Never heard of it."

"I had a vision of it re-awakening here in Alola and absorbing all light, leaving this planet in darkness. Most of the population would die in the ensuing cataclysm."

"And you seriously think I have a chance at stopping something like that?" Jack asked, his disbelief growing more apparent.

"Yes."

Jack's facade finally shattered as a deep, bellowing laugh erupted from him.

Sabrina's glare did not waver.

"Well, it's been nice talking to you, Sabrina," Jack lied. "But even in my wildest dreams do I think I'm that important." Jack then turned around and headed for the door.

"Are you curious as to why women in Alola have been growing large breasts and had their sex drives enhanced?"

Jack froze in his tracks. He turned back around, looking at her in sheer confusion.

"That's not even mentioning your own enhancement," Sabrina continued.

"That has something with all of this?" Jack asked.

Sabrina nodded, a smirk coming across her face, the sea-breeze picked up, causing her long, dark hair sway gently. "The Ultra Recon Squad, you're familiar with them?"

"Phyco and Soliera, right?" Jack asked, not sure if he got their names correct.

Sabrina nodded. "Yes. It may be hard to believe, but those two come from a dimension where Necrozma succeeded, where the being devoured all light. Their skin is pale since they'd never seen the sun, and the people there managed to create auras to help keep them as fertile as possible so the incredibly few survivors could re-populate their darkened planet."

"They somehow passed it on to me?" Jack said.

"Physical contact between a host of the special aura and another of the same biological sex is all it takes to pass on the abilities," Sabrina said, then grabbed her breasts.

"So you're preparing people for the possibility Necrozma appears?" Jack asked.

"It is a must if we want to guarantee the survival of people and pokemon alike."

"Okay... so you say you've seen me in your visions. What exactly am I doing?"

Sabrina sighed. "The first time I saw you in my visions, you were looking upon a great pillar of light in the distance, a Braviary flying above you. The next time I saw you, you were doing battle with the black terror itself, Necrozma."

"Was Braviary still there?" Jack asked, remembering the Rufflet he'd just caught earlier in the day.

"A Swampert stood between you and the beast, Solgaleo and Tapu Koko were by its side," Sabrina said.

Jack's eyebrows rose. Solgaleo being the "sun guardian" Hala mentioned, and Tapu Koko, the guardian of Melemele Island being apart of a cataclysmic battle made quite a bit of sense. "When did you see this?"

"Years ago," Sabrina answered. "It took me months to figure out what Necrozma was, and when I finally put it all together, I came to Alola. When your picture circulated in the media, I had no more doubts."

A multitude of thoughts circulated through his mind. How was it possible she knew of the Rufflet he'd just captured that morning? Finding out he had a Mudkip was one thing, but the Braviary knowledge threw him off. The "black terror," reverberated in his mind as he recalled Hala's words about the legend of the great battle atop Ten Carat Hill. "It all fits a little too well," he said aloud, fear creeping into his voice.

"I pray you heed my warning, Mr. Cobal, the fate of our planet may depend on it," Sabrina said gravely.

"So what do I do?" Jack asked. "I'm nowhere near strong enough to go against something that might've blown up Ten Carat Hill."

"Train your pokemon as best you can, Mr. Cobal."

"So I'll need another powerful pokemon with me-"

Sabrina shook her head. "I foresaw you with only five pokemon. The others being Breloom, Magnezone, and Mightyena."

Jack's jaw dropped, he stood, speechless.

"You should also work on your impregnating your brides. If you fail, humanity will need every child it can get," Sabrina said.

Jack shrugged. "Well, I think I'm already kinda working on that."

"Work harder then," Sabrina said, closing the gap between them. "One day you and I will also conceive a child, one of great potential. Until then, I must save my fertility," Sabrina said, giving him a kiss on the cheek. "Enjoy the party."

With that, Sabrina walked inside while Jack stared dumbly out to the water. Something in the back of his mind told him that everything Sabrina had said was true. He remained deep in thought until Zinnia's hand came across his shoulder.

"You okay Jack?" Zinnia said, concern in her voice.

"I think so. She had some really freaky stuff to say."

"Like what?" Zinnia asked.

Jack shook his head. "I'm still processing it all, honestly," Jack chuckled. "It's funny, the thing you and I noticed with Lillie? That was explained to me just now, and it's not even close to a big deal compared to everything else she said."

"Wow," Zinnia said, putting her hand on his cheek.

"Fuck, I gotta go back inside, right? I don't want to make a scene out here," Jack said.

Zinnia giggled. "No, Ursula got kicked out, so that's the only scene that really got made. Some boring guy is near the front of the room with a mic."

"Okay, I just need to think a bit, I guess." Jack said.

"So go back to the room?" Zinnia asked.

Jack shook his head. "We have to stay at this thing so Anabel and Selene can spring the-" Jack gasped and cursed. "They need to know. Fuck! There's a chance that psychic chick knows the trap's coming."

Zinnia gasped. "Oh shit."

"I'll go to the bathroom and inform Anabel. Hopefully things haven't started yet," Jack said, his hand going into his pocket. He grunted as he remembered he didn't want to show phone use or that he was acknowledging it.

He swung the door open, not caring to leave it open for Zinnia as he tried to hurry but not draw too much attention to himself. He heard the ramblings of a man testing out the microphone while the rest of the banquet hob-nobbed. He turned to the bar and noticed Ursula was not there and sighed with relief. "At least something's going well," he muttered under his breath.

"Hey Jack, we're over here!" May called out. Jack turned and saw his brides gathered around a table with a few more empty seats.

"Few more minutes," he called back hurriedly. He scanned the room for a sign of Lusamine, and he caught her outrageously long, eye-catching blonde-hair near the stage, her back to him. He found the hallway where the bathrooms were and walked there quickly, hoping people who noticed his hurry assumed he just needed to go to the bathroom, which he realized he actually did. He'd taken a few sips of his Alolan Blue so he lifted up the glass to chug it, and left it on a stand next to the bathroom entrance.

The left side of the hallway had entrances to the large public bathrooms, while the right side had private bathrooms. He looked toward the private bathrooms and saw a bewildering sight: Arezu's head poking out of one of the bathroom doors. "Jack, I need your help!" Arezu called to him.

Jack scoffed, rolling his eyes. What the hell was with her all of the sudden? He had way more important things to deal with.

"It's just me, no Ursula," Arezu insisted.

Jack grimaced. "I need to make a private phone call before I talk to you."

"I only have a few minutes left, please. Just a minute."

Jack sighed, turning to Zinnia who had lagged behind him due to her restricted movement in the dress, and invited him to join him and Arezu as he walked into the cracked open private bathroom. The urgent situation he needed to warn Anabel and Selene about took a back seat as he noticed Arezu had only a bar and panties on, showcasing her shapely legs, wide hips, and burgeoning EE breasts that had clearly grown in the week and a half since she'd come in contact with Lillie at the battle club. The boner that had died down from the serious conversation he'd had with Sabrina reared its head as his eyes were drawn more and more to Arezu's exposed body.

"Why are you in your underwear?" Jack asked as he held the door to the private bathroom for Zinnia.

Arezu crossed her arms, awaiting the door to be shut and locked. "Ursula might have bugged my clothes," Arezu said. "She's gotten really crazy recently."

"Just recently?" Jack asked jokingly.

Arezu sighed. "She's always been a lot, but she's really pushed it to another level after being in Alola."

"Probably doesn't help I'm sheltering Dawn now," Jack replied.

Arezu nodded. "She was furious when our lobby agent sent her the message. She shattered multiple wine glasses."

Jack nodded, then remembered she'd invited him in here for a reason. "So what's so important you need my help with and you're in your underwear to maximize security for?"

Arezu sighed. "I need to get away from Ursula, and you're the only person I know she can't bludgeon into submission with blackmail or money."

"So what are you offering?"

"Intel on Ursula. I can get damning video of some of the things she does with Irida that will enable me to leave her and get her out of your hair for good," Arezu said. "I just need a pledge from you that you'll take me in when I leave the Veilstones' service."

"This is way too easy," Jack replied, a jolt reminded him he didn't have time for whatever drama this was. "Fuck it, Arezu, I'll take you in. I really don't have time for this shit right now."

Arezu nodded, fire in her eyes and Jack was able to turn to his phone and type out the message to Anabel and Selene that had been burning in his mind.

Jack: Hard to explain, but the Sabrina chick who works at Aether is definitely someone who can see visions of the future. I met her and she said some spooky stuff to me. She didn't imply she knew anything about the ambush, but they may know it's coming. Be careful.

Jack sighed with relief as he hit the "send" button on his smart phone. "Okay, finally..." Jack said.

Arezu turned to Zinnia. "Does he always smell this good?"

Zinnia gave a knowing smile. "Yeah, hard to resist right?"

Arezu nodded. "Very..." Arezu's eyes dropped to his midsection, her cheeks reddening as she bit her lip. "I gotta confess, the thought of joining your side isn't just to get away from Ursula..."

Jack smirked. "And that's my cue to leave."

"Wh-wha?" Arezu said in shock, her mouth agape.

"I got way too much shit to do to boink you right now Arezu..." he paused as he took one last look at her exquisitely curvy body. "...no matter how much I'd like to."

Arezu smiled. "I see one thing that especially wants to."

Jack's erections had become second nature to him, so he'd hardly noticed himself chubbing up as he was treated to the delight that was a nearly-naked Arezu.

"I can't really blame you, boss," Zinnia said, admiring Arezu's figure as well.

"Let me prove my loyalty to you, Mr. Cobal. Let me give everything to you..." Arezu said with a sultry voice as she un-did her bra, letting the over-matched garment fall to the bathroom floor, exposing her EE breasts to the world. Their perkiness was only surpassed by their bountifulness, and he knew he wouldn't be able to resist.

"You're a hard one to refuse..." Jack said, undoing his belt.

Zinnia grunted. "Fuck this isn't fair, I can't get out of this dress or Serena will kill me."

"I promise I'll share next time," Arezu said, dropping her panties, revealing her soaked sweetness.

Jack re-entered the party not long after, having gotten off quite quickly thanks to Arezu. Arezu snuck out as best she could while Jack got a drink at the bar took a seat with Zinnia next to his staff and brides as a bald man named Faba spoke on the microphone. Jack had remembered Lillie mentioning Faba in connection to her situation with Nebby, so he tried to pay close attention to the words, but a lot of it was generic sounding praise and appreciation for the employees. After a few minutes of listening, Jack got the idea Faba was a bit self-obsessed. Finally Lusamine came on the mic and cheers'd everyone, hoping they'd have fun, and that dancing would be starting soon.

"Well at least something good will get going," Jack grumbled. He was tempted to check his phone to see if any new developments had gone down, but had to remind himself it could easily draw attention.

After finishing his drink, his nerves got the better of him and he pushed his seat out to get up, and noticed a familiar face walking his way, a second drink in their hands.

"You look empty, Mr. Cobal," Kahili called to him with a grin, making her way over to him.

Jack smiled and waved back. "That I am," he said as he took the Alolan Blue she offered. He noticed she had a different colored liquid in her cocktail glass. "What you sippin' on there?"

"Standard margarita," Kahili said, taking a sip. "Those Alolan Blues are too sweet."

"For you," Jack said, cheer'ing Kahili and taking a long swig.

Suddenly music began to play, just the standard pop fare, but the beat was easy. He noticed a number of people starting to head to the dance floor. Kahili noticed where his gaze had moved to. "You dance?" she asked with a hint of disbelief.

"Not sure you can call it that, but I can kind of move to a rhythm," he answered with am amused grin on his face. Jack then noticed Misty, Serena, May, and Bea finish their drinks and get up to go to the dance floor.

"Looks like they're gonna beat you there," Kahili observed.

"No they're going to beat you there, and you won't be able to dance with me the rest of the night," he teased, lifting the mixed drink above his head as he chugged it. During the chug he realized it was a bit stronger than the one Sabrina had given him, meaning Kahili had intended to get him drunk, he smiled.

He slammed the glass down on the table next to him and pumped his fist with excitement. "Okay, now I'm ready" he growled excitedly as he followed the group of his brides to the dance floor.

"Hey, wait for me!" Kahili called out to him. Jack turned his head gave her a naughty smile, then bolted to the dance floor. As he scampered over with a big grin, he knew this was going to be the best way to pass the time until Anabel and Selene had updated him.

And so things began, Misty, May, Serena, and Bea had taken up residence near the center of the dance floor, and some of the party-goers started to join them. Jack noticed a number of guys eyeing his beautiful brides, some with envy in their eyes and some with lust. He jumped in the middle of the group and started to "kind of move to a rhythm." May immediately got in front of him to challenge him, her enormous breasts swaying with every beat. May then turned around and started wiggling her ass, bending over, and Jack saw his cue to get behind her, but Bea darted in front, and May began grinding against Bea.

"Thwarted!" he said with a laugh. He then felt the touch of Serena, who began dancing against him, which quickly turned into grinding against his now throbbing midsection in her elegant, deep blue dress. Misty emerged into view, grooving with the music as well, and got on Jack's right side next to Serena. Serena moved aside a little to leave some room for Misty, who happily accepted, and the two elegantly dressed ladies were grinding their asses against his throbbing manhood in no time.

Part of his mind thought this was going a bit overboard considering it was supposed to be a work party for something he didn't work for, but the part of his mind that fixated on the busty, beautiful women grinding against him quickly told that other thought to disappear. He noticed May and Bea both eyeing the threesome with a bit of envy in their eyes.

About a minute later, the song ended, and the crowd on the dance floor that had grown significantly, cheered. Jack felt a lot of eyes on him and his ladies and he smiled sheepishly. He felt a tap on his shoulder and turned around, expecting a scolding, but instead was met with a smiling Kahili.

"Okay, I see you can move there, hot stuff," Kahili teased.

"I have my moments," Jack replied.

Kahili then stepped closer to him, her nose just a couple inches from his. "Now let me show you how it's really done."

The next song began, and Jack and Kahili caught the beat, and Kahili immediately moved to grind against his manhood with her very firm behind. Kahili leaned into him. "Good thing you ain't shy," she said.

She then turned around and closed in, basically dry-humping him. Kahili pushed her modest tits in his chest, then gave him a kiss on the lips, which he was too surprised by to reciprocate. "Not good enough for you, eh?" Kahili asked.

Jack chuckled, but didn't respond otherwise.

Kahili then leaned in again. "I took my lingerie off when you went outside."

Jack's eyebrows rose with surprise. "Is this how you are with most guys?"

Kahili gave him disgusted look as she dry-humped him even more fiercely. "Of course not."

Jack nodded. "My bad then."

Kahili smiled. "Your build, it's the perfect golfer body."

Jack smiled uneasily. "Really?"

Kahili nodded. "I want my children to be golfing prodigies," Kahili said, just loudly enough to be heard over the music.

"So I'm a sperm donor?" Jack joked.

"If you want to call it that," Kahili said as she squeezed her legs together causing an erotic pain for his shaft.

The two continued at this for the rest of the song, and when it ended, Kahili distanced herself from him with a lascivious grin. "There's a lot more where that came from, Mr. Cobal," she said with a wicked glare.

Jack smiled. "Looking forward to it then."

May and Bea then grabbed him. "Our turn! Team TNA is back!" Bea cheered.

Jack's grin widened. "How'd I ever ge3t so lucky?"

A few more songs played, with Mallow coming out to join them for a song she really liked, but it became the group of his brides competing with each other for who grinded on his manhood the best, a contest he was happy to serve. It helped get his mind off the situation potentially un-folding back at the property.

The revelry came to an end when he noticed Hilda standing on the edge of the dance floor.

"Fuck," Jack said, breaking the group of four girls all trying to grind on him. He made his way over to Hilda. "What's the word?"

Hilda rolled her eyes. "Good news and bad news."

Jack grimaced. "Out with it-"

Hilda shook her head then pointed to the deck where Sabrina had taken him earlier. "Out there."

Hilda led Jack out to the deck, which no longer had a "reserved" sign on it, but no one had taken advantage of the now available terrace. The warm Alolan breeze met him once again, this time against a darkened night sky.

"Okay, so what happened?" Jack demanded. "Are Lille and Nebby safe?"

Hilda nodded. "Yes."

"So-"

"Can you shut your mouth and let me explain what happened?" Hilda said irritatedly.

Jack nodded, putting his hands up to surrender.

Hilda sighed. "Anabel and Selene managed to sub-due the intruder, but during it, the intruder really hurt her leg badly."

"What's she gonna do, sue me?" Jack asked rhetorically.

"Well, essentially, this person is so high-profile that Anabel and Selene are afraid they can't put her in a conventional jail."

"What does that even mean?"

"I don't fucking know," Hilda barked. She took a deep breath. "Anabel and Selene have a lot of explaining to do, but in essence, they want the intruder to stay with us on the property."

"No. No chance in hell. We're helping them," Jack said.

Hilda nodded. "That's what I said when they told me, but Anabel mentioned the IP had suppressed the story of you and Lusamine banging it out."

"What does that have to do with anything?" Jack asked.

"We owe them, and for whatever reason they don't want to put this person in jail."

Jack threw his hands up in anger. "Who the hell is so dangerous that jail won't take them?"

Hilda shrugged. "Some woman named Janine."
