= Human (Nate) / Pokemon Lucario (Leala) Zoroark (Safia) =
*Narrator*
[After the fall of Team Plasma, and becoming Champion of the Unova Region, Nate Blanca reigned as the Champion of the Pokemon League in Unova for over years, before he reached the age of eighteen, when he retired and began competing in the world championship league, where only the best trainers allowed qualified.]
[Beside him every step of the way, were his three most treasured, most powerful, most reliable, and closest friends. His starter, a modest but proud Male Serperior, named William, that has been by his side from the beginning, and whom considered the human a brother, despite their obvious differences. His second Pokemon that remained with him, was his timid yet strong willed Female Lucario, Leala. Finally, the third Pokemon that followed him, was his adamant and highly confident Female Zoroark, Safia.]
[These three stayed with him when he retired, and were practically the only Pokemon he ever owned, besides one other Pokemon that followed him, and whom respected him.]
[Yet despite being known for having the powerful Reshiram behind him, hardly anyone ever saw the legendary Vast White Pokemon, as he refused to use his powerful legendary in any competition. Yet as the day of his twenty fifth birthday approached, a single burning question arose among the popular fans of the still 'single' hero of Unova.]
(Nate's PoV)
"Safia, use Sucker Punch, Leala, Aura Sphere, William Leaf Tornado!"
"Serperi… oooor!" Wiliam yelled as he flung several sharpened leaves in a spiral against their opponent's Politoad.
"Lucaaaaaar!" Leala shouted as she charged an Aura Sphere and sent it against the opposing Porygon Z.
"Zoroaaaark!" Safia cried as she ran forward and let loose her ferocious Sucker Punch against the Froslass she was fighting against, just before it could unleash its attack.
As the attacks connected and the dust settled, all three of their opponents had been defeated, ending the battle and claiming victory in the finals of the Group L bracket for the World Championship League.
[The battle is over, the battle is over, the winner is… Nate from Unova!]
Nate sighed as his Pokemon stood proud and tall while returning to him, and he in turn looked at them all proudly. "Well done guys, now we can rest for while we wait for the next bracket to complete and find out who we're facing against." He said with a smile.
"Serperior!" Wiliam said confidently, pretending as if the fight had taken no effort.
"Zoroark." Safia said confidently as well as she gave him a sly smirk.
(Of course… master.) Leala replied nervously as she blushed at him.
As they turned and began leaving, he pulled out their Pokeballs and recalled them all, so as to avoid the rush of cameras and news reporters, which followed his every victory and never gave him a break. "Alright… here we go again." He said whispered as he made for the exit, already seeing it flooded with cameras and microphones on sticks and the people carrying them. "I really hate days like this…"
Being the former Unova Champion had its perks, but one of the downsides was that he almost 'never' had any privacy anymore in public. Only a few places in the world provided him time to be alone, as journeying and competing in tournaments has made him too popular to enjoy everyday locations nowadays. He couldn't even go to the bathroom in a public restaurant without one person recognizing him.
"Mister Nate, what are your plans for the next month now that you've won your bracket?" A reporter asked as he began walking through the torrent of reporters.
"Mister Nate, are you planning on taking a vacation to prepare your team for the next stage of the competition?"
"Mister Nate, It's been asked by your many fans if you have anyone special in your life?" A third reporter asked.
He once again ignored them as they continued to ask question after question, before he was finally freed of them by walking into the Trainer's lounge. Once inside he sighed and pulled out Safia's Pokeball to release her.
In a flash of light his Zoroark appeared and smirked at him. "Let me guess, the Paparazzi?" She asked, speaking the same language as him.
His Zoroark, in fact every one of his Pokemon were all capable of talking human thanks to years of living together with him. The only reason they didn't show this 'skill' in public, was because he didn't want any more publicity. Being the hero of Unova, commanding a legendary Pokemon, and even being a famous and highly skilled Champion was enough.
"Yep, they're outside and waiting for me to leave." He said with a sigh. "You know the drill Safia."
"Oh yea, I love this part." She said as she backed up and took in his entire figure.
Moments later her appearance changed and she reappeared as a mirrored image of himself.
"Alright, you know the drill… lure them away and lose em." He said as he walked to the door and hid where it would block him.
"No problem, just leave it to me." She replied as she walked over to the door with his heavy jacket and opened it up.
Seconds later…
"Mister Nate, care to comment on one of your possible opponents from Group Q?"
"Mister Nate, can you describe how you won…"
The door closed and with it all the reporters' voices. He sighed again and waited two minutes before he pulled out Leala from her Pokeball and released her.
(Yes Master?) She asked telepathically. (I take it this is about the Paparazzi?)
"Yea Leala, I know this is a waste of your talents, but could you take a look to see if the coast is clear?" He asked his Lucario.
(Think not of it master…) She said sweetly, before looking at the door and wall, using her ability to sense and see auras to check for reporters. (The coast is clear, we can leave now without being spotted.)
"Thanks Leala." He said with a smile as he opened the door and walked out.
What he didn't notice was that Leala blushed as he smiled at her.
Ten minutes later they left the room and climbed up to the roof of the stadium, avoiding all the spectators who had left through the main exits. After they reached the roof he and Leala waited for Safia to return.
(Here she comes.) Leala said as she looked down.
He looked down and saw Safia, still disguised as him, jumping up the side of the stadium wall to where he and Leala were. "Sorry it took so long, but man those Paparazzi just don't know how to take the hint!" Safia said as she resumed her normal look. "They kept following me every step of the way, had to throw them off with the men's bathroom trick."
"You didn't see anything you weren't supposed to see were?" He asked her.
"Don't worry, I kept my eyes closed." She said with a chuckle. "So, shall we get going before things get crazier? Those cameras won't stay on the men's bathroom door forever."
"Yea, but I'll need to return you both before we go." He said, taking out their Pokeballs again.
"Got it!" She said.
(As you wish…) Leala said.
He smiled warmly at them before he recalled them safely into their Pokeballs. He was always grateful to those two especially for all they've done for him, and he always would be grateful as long as he lived with them. But as he eyed their Pokeballs, especially Leala's and Safia's, his thoughts once again began thinking differently. Before he could go any deeper though, he shook his head and replaced them on his belt.
"Well, it's as Safia said, time to get going before they figure it out." He said as he pulled out a Premier Ball from his belt and tossed it high into the air, releasing the ten foot tall Dragon Pokemon he had released from the Light Stone.
With an almighty roar, the Vast White, Dragon of Truth Reshiram let the whole of Iccarus City know who had been released this late at night.
(Reshiram's PoV)
After only a moment to safely land on the roof of the stadium, Reshiram turned to its Master and life partner. (You require my assistance again?) She asked telepathically in a very 'feminine' voice, yet in truth she was not female.
"Yes, I know I shouldn't ask you to perform something so menial Reshiram, but can you please take me and the others back to Dragonspiral Tower?" Nate asked respectfully.
(Of course…) She responded as she bent down to help him onto her back, before standing to her full height.
Once Nate was secured, she turned toward the night sky and leapt off the stadium and began soaring high into the sky. She soared higher and higher, before balancing out and stretching her arm-wings to glide toward their main destination, a single towering spiral that could barely be seen in the distance.
Dragonspiral Tower.
(How are you today Nate?) She asked as they continued to soar, only able to hear him over the wind because he was so close to her ears.
"I'm alright, just have to wait for the next part of the tournament to begin." He yelled. "Why do you ask?"
She turned her head just enough to stare at him with her blue eyes, and stared into his own blue eyes. She could tell that he was lying, that wasn't the whole truth he had just said. (Because tomorrow it will be your birthday… and you have yet to tell us what your plans are.)
"I just… I just want to be alone with you guys is all..." He answered.
Once again, she saw that he was lying, that wasn't the whole truth. (You know I don't like it when you hide the truth from me Nate…) She said warmly, but also with a hint of frustration. (We are partners in our eternal quest to fight for the truth in this world. Why do you lie to your own partner about what it is that haunts your thoughts?)
He remained silent as they continued to soar, and she decided it was best to drop the subject for now. Instead she returned her attention to the tower that had become their permanent home after he had matured.
Unlike many humans of the world, he had chosen to take Dragonspiral Tower as his home. If anyone had objected to this, they had been silenced by her, as anyone who dared tread on Dragonspiral's ground was quickly chased off by the many wild Pokemon surrounding it.
As they landed at the base of the tower she glanced at him as he climbed down. She could easily tell that he had much on his mind, yet she decided to let him think about it alone.
(I will be in my chamber if you wish to speak with me.) She said, not hiding the fact that she knew he was hiding something.
"Alright…" He said as she flew up, leaving her partner in truth at the base of the tower to decide what he wanted to do.
*Humans… so slow to think…* She thought as she landed in the highest chamber of the tower, and laid down next to the large pile of blankets that she found comfortable to sleep on.
(Nate's PoV)
He sighed as he released his Pokemon and they all made their way up the staircase to the upper floors.
As they walked William slithered next to him while Leala and Safia lagged behind, talking among themselves and letting the starter and Trainer be alone.
"You did well today master." He said with a proud look as they climbed.
"Yea, I suppose so." He responded, not feeling talkative.
Obviously his Serperior noticed the change in tone and looked at him with a curious eye. "I take it you saw something in the news?" He asked, to which he nodded. "In the paper, or on television?"
"Both." He said simply.
"Does it concern that law?" He asked quietly as they climbed to another floor, this one well- kept and clean, with various pillows and tables, as well as portable kitchen tools like an oven and even a refrigerator.
He nodded as they went up the next floor to where the girl's bedroom were, and above it the boy's.
Earlier that day, when his team were resting before their last fight, he had seen on the news of how a respectable Pokemon Trainer from the lower league had been caught 'raping' his Ninetales. While they were in the lounge just before their match as well, there had been a story about how another Trainer had also been arrested, allegedly having 'intercourse' with her Gallade.
Both trainers had been sent to jail, and all Pokemon confiscated and put up for adoption. The news reported that despite 'fierce resistance' from both Pokemon attempting to return to their former trainers, and both former trainers insisting that they weren't 'raping' their Pokemon, all parties involved were being separated and the trainers would be behind bars for five years. After they are released, they would be free to return to society, provided they wear special 'tracking collars' and as long as they stay away from any Pokemon Center or Pokemon themed location, as well as remain under twenty four hour surveillance from cameras.
"I see… I guess things aren't going to change very much at this rate." He said quietly as they walked further upstairs to their room, while they heard the girls sigh in content when they reached their beds.
"Reshiram and I battled so that Pokemon and People could be together, fighting against N and Zekrom who sought to separate them forever." He said as he remembered N's famous words.
'Think about you and your Pokemon, what are you striving for?'
He and his team had fought their hardest so that Pokemon and People could live together in harmony, seeing each other as equals. Yet over ten years after N and Plasma's downfall, his and Reshiram's dream of Pokemon and Humans being together has dissolved slowly over time.
Yes, both sides were together still, but when those who wanted to go further with their relationships were discovered, new laws were established. Laws that became very punishing to those caught in the act.
He didn't know how many 'couples' there were, but how could they treat those people as if they were criminals?
*And the Pokemon as well, the way they described them in the news those Pokemon didn't sound like they were 'victims' of rape.* He thought as he walked over to his bed to lie down.
"So Master… what are your plans tomorrow?" William asked as he slithered over to the bed as well.
"Why does everyone keep asking me what I'm doing on my birthday?" He asked nobody.
"Because, traditionally one spends time with the one they love on that special day." He said bluntly. "And you've already missed Safia's and Leala's birthdays, and you know they will want to spend it with you especially. This is their last chance since you missed yours…"
"Stow it William." He said quietly, getting into a sitting position. "I know what you're about to say, but… it just wouldn't be fair to them."
"For them… or you?" He asked, ignoring the order to 'stow it'.
It wasn't a secret, at least between him and his team, that he like so many other trainers have fallen into the same position of becoming too attached to his Pokemon. The problem was, that unlike those trainers on the news, he had developed a crush on both of his female Pokemon, Safia and Leala.
And unlike those other trainers, he wouldn't risk letting either of them get taken away from him, because he loved them both too much to risk losing them. Despite his reputation and what he's done for Unova, he would never be let off the hook for such an 'offense'.
He also didn't want to pursue any relationship with them because to do so, would harm one over the other. William had told him that Leala and Safia also had a crush on him, and they had often wanted to pursue a relationship with him, but like him restrained themselves as well.
If either of them wanted to be with him, the other would be hurt for not being picked.
The Serperior sighed and slithered over to his large cushion to sleep for the night. "Well before the sun rises, you should at least talk to Reshiram Master… if for no other reason than to make sure this is the right choice." He said softly. "After all, your birthday comes once a year… and it won't come for another year if you want to have another chance to make such… confessions… worthwhile and meaningful."
He only watched the Serperior curl up on the cushion and fall asleep, before he sighed and looked at the staircase leading up and down, to the girl's bedroom and to Reshiram's chamber.
"I hope she won't mind an intrusion in the middle of the night." He whispered as he got up and began walking upstairs.
(Leala and Safia's PoV's)
"For the last time you wimp, I'm going through with it!" Safia growled as she paced back and forth on their floor.
"You can't, if you do you'll only hurt him!" Leala said softly as she watched the Zoroark pacing. "You know what will happen, if it's discovered, he'll be arrested, we'll be separated… they'll lock him up and we'll never see him again!"
"I don't give a Rattata's tail about the League's rules!" Safia snarled as she glared at the Lucario, making her flinch slightly with how fierce she acted. "We've gone over this whole thing a dozen times Leala, your crazy about it, I'm crazy about him, we both want him but neither of us want to make the move on him! We also know he's crazy about 'us' as well, it's obvious!"
"I know… but…" Leala responded. "But… I don't try because I don't want to hurt your feelings if he chooses me, or risk getting him hurt because I tried something."
They both stared at each other before they sighed, then Safia walked over and sat next to her Lucario friend, knowing they were just saying everything that had already been said.
They had both been planning this day for weeks, with Safia trying to convince Leala to give their beloved trainer the greatest gift they could ever give him for everything he's done for them. Together they had saved the world of Pokemon and Humans, ensuring they had a future for both in the world. Yet every year, they withheld because their trainer didn't want to risk their livelihood, for something so 'risky' to them.
But of course, this had been going on for years, each year they tried and each time they stopped.
"We came here to be alone… but even when we are here, and it's only us… our trainer refuses to be himself." Leala whispered sadly. "For our sake…"
"Yea… and that's why I want to give him everything he deserves…" Safia whispered as well. "You know as well as I that I wouldn't dare take him from you Leala… you love him just as much. I don't want to take him away from you… but I want to give him something he wants as much as us…"
They've wanted to give their trainer the ultimate birthday gift for years, the only gift they can give him once on his birthday, as 'females'. Their hearts and purity.
The only thing stopping them, they both wanted him, but they didn't want to force a decision on him, choosing between the two of them.
"Look Leala, let's go through with it tomorrow…" Safia said as she looked at the female Lucario. "No matter what happens, we have to try!"
"But what if…" Leala said, but was silenced as Safia put a claw on her mouth to shut her up.
"You know what Reshiram told us that one day… I know it's the truth… we love him… and no stupid law is going to change what I'm doing tomorrow." She said fiercely. "Now… I'm going through with my plan… I promise you I won't be unhappy if he chooses you… but I will give him my 'gift' no matter what. Are you in… or out?"
Leala sighed as she glanced at a present Nate gave them on their last birthdays, a pair of stuffed dolls in their likeness that he himself had made. She remembered him paying for a year's worth of sewing lessons to make them, and even stuffing them himself.
They both treasured their respective dolls, priceless items to them.
"Alright… I'm in…" She said softly. "We'll do it tomorrow then… we'll give him a birthday worth remembering."
As they both nodded and went to their respective beds on the large floor of the tower, they both thought the same thing however. *I hope he picks me…*
(Nate's PoV)
"But it's still the Law Reshiram…" He said as he sat next to the legendary, looking at her head as laid on the ground, wings spread to keep him warm.
(Perhaps master… but if the law denies you what you believe in… then that law is unjust and a lie.) She said with a gentle reply. (You and I both believe in humans and Pokemon being together, so why should one law deny both the opportunity to 'be' together?)
He sighed as their conversation went around in a circle, again.
"If I even look at them wrongly Reshiram, or touch them inappropriately… I'll be arrested… they'll label me as a Pokephile, and the league will confiscate Leala, Safia, and William." He said, also yet again. "I know what you're saying but… I just can't risk hurting them."
She sighed once more and shifted around to look at him with both eyes. (We have been discussing this for over two hours Nate, and you still don't understand.) She said. (You are afraid of a law, a line of words that does not have any feelings or thoughts of its own or for those it prosecutes. Why do you give so much concern for something that is nothing more than a lie to everything you believe in?)
"Because I care for my Pokemon… they're my friends… family… they're my whole life!" He said calmly.
(And you would let a law created out of lies and misbeliefs guide your every being?) She said stubbornly. (Is that the 'truth' you believe in? The 'Truth' that you say is what you must follow?) She shook her head in disbelief. (I thought you were striving for the truth in this world? When did you let a 'lie' rule what you think in life?)
He sighed and looked out at the night sky of the open roof. "I don't know Reshiram…" He said simply. "It all seemed so easy when I was younger… but now… it's just so confusing. How can I stand up for those 'truths' that I believe in, when it's against the law to believe in such things? I just wish everything was as simple as it was back then."
(It is no more complicated now than it was before Nate.) Reshiram said warmly. (You only make it so by not standing up for what you believe in.)
"And how do I do that?" He said with a yawn.
She chuckled again but looked him straight in the eyes. (Tell me the truth… do you love your two females?) He sighed once more and nodded. (And they love you correct?) She asked to which he nodded as well. (Well there you have it… the truth you strive for, the answer to the truth you seek. No law can tell you otherwise that this isn't the truth that you should believe in. If they seek to separate such feelings that are truthful and honest, then those who uphold such laws are the ones at fault, and not you.)
"Believing in such truths is all well and good Reshriam… but if I can't protect my Pokemon and myself without breaking the law… what good is it?" He complained as he looked back at the sky. "It doesn't change the fact that if I do 'anything' that might hurt either of them… then I'm the one at fault. Besides… it's more than that Reshiram." He looked at her again. "Even if I 'could' safely love them… how can I, they both feel equally for me, and I feel equally for them, how could I pick one of them over the other?"
Reshiram sighed yet again before staring at him with yet another frustrated look. (Once more you confuse the truth of what you're striving to understand.) She replied. (You love them equally yes? And they love you just as equally yes? So why are you trying to choose one over the other as if this is your most important choice?)
"But Reshiram… I can't just choose both of them… can I?" He asked in confusion.
She sighed yet again before looking away from him. (That is what you need to decide on… are your feelings for both as true as theirs for you are?) She said tiredly. (I already know the truth Nate… that law is nothing but a lie, and I concern myself only with truths, as you very well know. I fight only for the truth, you are my partner in that endeavor. If you seek the truth of your heart, then I will help you seek it out as well… but if you yourself cannot see the truth… then there is nothing I can do to help you.)
With that he watched her put more weight on the ground as she began to sleep. And he looked up at the sky, wondering and debating about the law in his head. He tried to find some reason, some justification for his feelings, some loophole that could safely let him even say what he wanted to say to them.
Yet the more he tossed and turned the ideas around in his head, the more impossible it was.
"How can I just… pick one of them… and even if I could… would they be happy?" He whispered as he leaned against Reshiram's feathery side, twirling and debating the questions again and again in his head.
What he didn't know was that as he was contemplating the law and his feelings for his Pokemon, that Reshiram was listening as well, only feigning sleep.
(Safia's and Leala's PoV's)
"Are you nervous?" Safia asked as they slowly made their way upstairs after cleaning themselves both off to make sure they were ready.
"Yes…" Leala whispered back. "But… we're going through with this… right?"
"Yea… no turning back." Safia replied, glancing at her nervous Lucario friend. "No hard feelings no matter who he picks right?"
"A little…" Leala answered. "No hard feelings if he picks me?"
"A little… yea…" Safia replied back. "But we're doing this for him… no stupid law is going to stop us from being who we are."
"I just hope it's all worth it…" Leala said.
All morning they had been preparing for the big moment for Nate's birthday, when they would both finally confess to him and tell him how they feel about the so called 'law' of the Pokemon League. They had yet to see him, but they both knew he was most likely upstairs, either in his and William's room, or with Reshiram.
As they climbed up to the kitchen room, they saw the Serperior starter hard at work preparing the birthday cake they would be eating much later that day. "Alright… two cups of… sugar… and four teaspoons of… flower." He commented as he used his vine whips to handle the ingredients, while he looked at a cook book.
"William lowering himself to cooking, I never thought I'd see the day." Safia giggled as she watched the scene.
"That's so cute!" Leala giggled as well.
"Silence!" He snapped, looking at them with a half glare to make them shut up. "I refuse to let 'anyone' else cook besides me on our trainer's special day. Arceus knows you two can't be trusted with this task." He then smiled softly at them. "Besides… you two have a more important job… giving our trainer a good 'birthday gift', if he wants it that is."
They both blushed at him smirking. "Is he awake?" Leala asked nervously.
"He's upstairs with Reshiram." The Serperior said calmly as he returned to his cooking. "So get going, this cake is going to take a long while before it's finished, so you'll have all day with him."
They both nodded and began climbing the stairs, but just as they did they were once again called by William. "Oh, one more thing…" He yelled. "If you're going to give him his 'present', keep the noise down! I'd rather not have to hear such sounds while cooking, it's very distracting."
They nodded again and resumed climbing, both of them blushing slightly at how open William was about their plans, or how knowledgeable he was concerning what they wanted to do.
"Wonder what he's doing with Reshiram?" Leala asked quietly.
"Probably what he did every other year his birthday came around, talking." Safia said.
They climbed up the long staircases up two floors, before they finally reached the top floor, the chamber where Reshiram resided, and who only allowed Nate to enter with her permission. As they slowly climbed the last steps they saw the Vast White Pokemon lying on the ground with her wings splayed out, and staring up at the sky outside.
(Enter.) She said telepathically.
They both shuddered and obeyed the request, not even bothering to ask how she knew they were there without even seeing them.
(Speak softly… our trainer is sleeping.) She said as she looked down at her wing, and lifted it gently to reveal a peacefully sleeping Nate, lying on the blankets that made up Reshiram's vast bed.
"He's asleep at this time?" Safia asked. "But its past mid-day."
"Yea… but look at how cute he looks asleep…" Leala whispered as she blushed at seeing their trainer sleeping.
(He was up much of the night debating to the truth of the law that guides and haunts his will.) Reshiram said softly. (You know of his feelings for you, and he knows of your feelings for him… yet the law that forbids such feelings between us and humans binds him to its false will. He has been trying to find a way to legitimize his longing for you, but still cannot see the answer. But he has also been trying to convince himself between who to choose between his loves… yet that too proved impossible for him.)
"Pick one us…" Leala asked nervously. "So… he couldn't because…?"
(He loves you both equally, and it is as I told him, why deny the truth of his heart and force himself to pick only one?) She said with a chuckle. (He tries so hard to find an answer that he cannot see the true answer staring right in front of him.)
They were silent as they watched him sleeping before Safia spoke up next. "So… did he find a way around the law?" She asked.
(No, he still does not see the truth of that law, that it is a lie… and only should be followed if you believe in its 'false truth'…) She answered as she got up carefully. (Let him sleep for now, and let his dreams answer the questions… but what of you, why are you here? Do you have questions yourselves, or are you here just to be with him?)
They both nodded and looked at the dragon of truth.
Oh yes, they had some questions, especially concerning 'their' problem, since it was obvious Reshiram had the answers to Nate's problems, even if he didn't see them yet.
*Narrator*
[For the next hour, Reshiram, Safia, and Leala debated the law of the Pokemon League, and their thoughts about it and their relationship with their trainer. Both female Pokemon insisted that they wanted to be with their human, yet they had the difficulty of choosing who would be with him.]
[Yet Reshiram had discovered her own truths concerning both issues. Which she described to them in great detail. The only difficulty she had with those 'truths', was telling them to Nate and getting him to listen to them. But she had a plan that might work, and get him to finally embrace the truths that he believed in and had fought for, and show the lies of the law they all disapproved of.]
[After their conversation, Reshiram left to let Safia and Leala to take care of their trainer, until he woke up hours later.]
(Multi PoV)
Nate groaned as he began waking up, and once he blinked his eyes clear he saw that he was in his bedroom with Leala and Safia.
"Good evening master." He heard Safia say.
(Yes… good evening.) Leala said in his mind.
"Safia, Leala, why are you here, and where's Reshiram?" He asked as he sat up.
"She went to soar the skies, something about enjoying the fresh air." Safia said as she sat next to him and looked into his eyes. "It's almost night Nate, you've all but missed your birthday."
"Huh… oh, I see." He said, looking down at the floor. "Well that explains why 'I'm' here, but why are you two here?"
(We just wanted to talk to you…) Leala said nervously as she sat next to him, wearing a special strap on her chest to cover the spike on her chest. (Listen master… we know about… well… everything, as you know as well.)
"If this is about the law, I've told you time and time again, I will not break the law if it means I risk losing you two!" He said stubbornly, not looking up at either of them. "I also will not choose between either of you, I refuse to hurt either of you because I care about you both too much! I also won't betray my feelings for you both by simply dating a girl when it's obvious I have no attraction to a human girl anymore!"
"We know…" Safia said stubbornly as she placed a claw on his hand and held it tightly. "But just hear us out… please?"
(Yes… just listen to us alright?) Leala asked nervously, causing him to look at his Lucario companion and into her worried eyes. (We've also talked with Reshiram… and she told us some things that… you may like… I=if you'll listen.)
He could easily have ignored Safia because she was always so stubborn, but when Leala gave him those worried eyes, he couldn't wholeheartedly refuse her without being a jerk. "Alright, I'll listen…" He sighed. "What did she say?"
So for ten minutes they told him what Reshiram said, about how the law was a false truth based on the misconceptions of Pokemon as nothing more than lower intellectual animals, and how it forbade a practice that while some did abuse, others did consensually. They talked about how Reshiram described the truth that she and Nate, and the rest of them fought for, that Pokemon and Humans were 'meant' to be together, and that there was nothing wrong with having such feelings for one another, so long as they both saw each other as equals.
"So you see master… even if it says you can't be with us, you don't have to listen to that stupid law!" Safia said with a sly smile, but it slowly turned into a frown. "That is… unless you think we're nothing but… lower intelligence animals as well…"
(You don't do you?) Leala asked nervously.
He shook his head as they each held one of his hands. "You know as well as I that I see you as equal as me, if not better, because without you I'm nothing."
"Well there you go, you don't need to listen to that cruddy law if you believe we're equal!" Safia said with a sly smile again. "If you love us, which you do, and we love you, which we do, then there is nothing wrong with us expressing our feelings as intimately as we want."
"But how can I just… I can't do that still, not without hurting one of you…" He said as he looked at them. "Even if I wanted to go through with… that… how can I just pick one of you over the other? I care about you both too much to do that, and your both friends with each other, your practically sisters to one another."
They both looked at each other and nodded in unison. (Reshiram gave us advice on that as well… and she told us that… the truth about feelings of love, is that they will not be satisfied until they are fulfilled.) Leala said warmly. (We don't want to hurt one another, yes, but she gave us an idea… if you're willing to go along with it.)
"And that idea is?" He asked.
At that they both leaned in close to him, gave him a warm smile, and each planted a kiss on his cheek, causing him to blush now. "She said if you can't pick one of us, for fear of hurting the other when you love both of us and we both love you… then just take 'both' of us." Safia said slyly. "It's as you said, Leala and I are like sisters, and we both love you equally… so why should only one of us get to have you, and let the other suffer? I'm sure there's enough room in your heart for the two of us."
(There's also one other thing Reshiram said about that law, that you don't know about it… a secret loophole that she learned about that you have yet to learn.) Leala said with a very sly grin. (Care to hear what she told us it was?)
He nodded in response as they both leaned closer to him, slowly pushing him onto his back and lying down next to him on his bed.
"She said… that law has an 'unwritten' loophole attached to it… and that loophole is…" Safia said as she grinned mischievously at him.
(You can only break that law… if you 'do' have intercourse with your Pokemon… and get 'caught'.) Leala said quietly. (So all we have to do… is not get 'caught'… and it's not like there are any league officials watching us here who can stop us.)
"So what do you say 'master'… it's your birthday… is there 'anything' you want to say to us?" Safia asked slyly. "Or is there anything you 'want to do' with us?"
At long last, looking at his two Pokemon that he had feelings for, been denying his feelings and holding himself back for so many years, for fear of hurting them, he finally accepted the 'truths' that his Pokemon told him to accept.
So without any more hesitation, as well as years of suppressed emotional longing, he pulled Safia first closer to him and pressed their lips against one another.
"Mhmmm!" The Zoroark moaned as she instantly got into it.
(Uhm… c… can I… join in?) Leala asked timidly as she watched the pair making out in front of her.
Seconds later Nate separated from Safia and pulled Leala into her kiss as well, making her coo in delight as she pushed her muzzle harder into the kiss.
(Ahhh~) Leala moaned happily while Safia began licking at Nate's neck and massaging his shoulders.
"Took you long enough…" Safia whispered seductively as she continued to plant kisses on his neck while still massaging his chest, but her claws were slowly making their way lower. "But we've been waiting long enough as well… so how about Ahhh~!"
Safia stopped talking as she felt a hand massaging her lower region, and she looked down to see Nate massaging the area between her legs where her pussy's entrance was. At the same time he was massaging Leala's rear with his other hand, while still locking lips with the Lucario.
(Ooooh~!) Leala cooed in delight as she felt herself being felt and pleasured. (Please… don't stop!)
They separated from their kiss and Leala was panting from not breathing so much, just as Nate was. "Oh… believe me… I don't intend to." He said seductively, before he began making out with Safia this time.
The Zoroark smiled happily as she laid down on her back and pulled Nate on top of her, wrapping her arms around him so that she could keep him as close as she could. While they kissed she slipped her tongue inside her trainer's mouth and began dancing with his, enjoying the wetness of his own tongue against hers.
All the time while Nate was making out with Safia, Leala began removing his clothing one piece at a time with his help, giving his body her own tongue treatment.
As Leala removed first his shirt, and then began to help remove his pants, and after that his underwear, she marveled at how 'large' their trainer's dick was. After so many years of training, journeying, and restraining himself, and now she saw what she and Safia had been longing to see for all these years.
*That's got to be… six or… seven inches… at 'least'* She thought.
After a few minutes of Safia kissing him and grinding her pussy's entrance against his dick they separated and looked at each other. "So… Nate… since it's your birthday… who do you want first?" Safia asked with a sly grin. "We know it's your first time… and it's our first time as well."
"No regrets with whoever I pick?" He asked them both.
"Uh… none… but…" Leala whispered nervously as she began blushing heavily. "If possible… c…c… can I go first?"
Both Safia and Nate looked at each other and smiled, nodding in agreement.
"Alright, lie down on your back Leala…" Nate said softly, and Leala nodded as she laid down as instructed.
Once she was ready he climbed over her and lined himself up with her sex's entrance, which they just saw was wet and showing through her blue fur. (Uhm… please… be gentle master?)
"I will Leala… I promise." Nate said softly as he leaned forward and kissed her on the mouth to calm her down, while also beginning to press into her waiting entrance.
With how wet Leala was from the foreplay and excitement, as well as sexual lust all of them were feeling from resisting so hard, it was impossible to describe how wonderful it was for Nate. Her sex was absolutely warm, but he also felt how soft she was inside, despite being a steel type she felt like velvet.
Then just as he nearly finished pushing into her, he felt himself touch a fleshy barrier which stopped him from hilting. Tentatively he looked at Leala, who nodded in approval, before he pressed slightly against it, and finally pushed more heavily against it. In seconds, the barrier broke and Leala winced painfully.
(Ugh… it… hurts…) She moaned.
"Are you alright Leala?" He asked nervously.
(I'm fine… the pain is already over…) She answered soothingly. (I'm a steel type remember… I can resist the pain more easily. So please… continue…)
He nodded and began to thrust forward, slowly at first, before he picked up his pace and began to go at a faster rate. "Leala… it feels so good inside of you!" He moaned as he thrusted in and out.
(Oh… you like it~?) She moaned loudly as her legs clamped around him tightly. (I'm so Ah~… right there… yes~)
While he continued to fuck Leala, Safia wrapped her arm around him and leaned her head in to kiss him. She smiled slyly as she watched Leala moaning loudly, ignoring the lines of red coming from where her pussy was.
Leala was the most timid and shy Pokemon of their team, and yet here she was being so bold as to ask if she could be their trainer's first time. Yet as she watched him fucking her Lucario 'sister', she herself couldn't wait until it was her turn, and her pussy couldn't wait to feel it.
(Ah!) Leala moaned louder as Nate rubbed against a certain spot on her walls. (Right there… it feels so good right there!)
Nate however couldn't respond because Safia was still holding his mouth to herself, unwilling to let it go.
Then he began to pick up the pace of his thrusts, pushing harder and harder into her sex. (Master… I can't… it feels so good!) Leala yelled out as she forcefully pulled him closer to her. (Please… I'm so close… it feels like something's coming!)
"Me too Leala… I'm about to come…" He moaned softly as they looked into each other's eyes. "Is it alright… if I release… inside of you?"
(Yes… go ahead~!) She moaned happily. (Give me your seed… I'm all yours~!)
They locked lips as he began to thrust harder than ever into Leala's pussy, then after a few hard thrusts, he hilted himself once again as he felt a huge pressure build up.
(Mmhmmm~!) Leala moaned as she felt her release hit, spraying Nate's dick inside of her and mixing her juices with Nate's as he came inside as well.
"Mhmhmm!" He moaned just as loudly in her mouth, feeling years of restrained pressure release at long last.
For a full minute they held their pose, with Leala gripping Nate tightly and Nate hugging her just as tightly, while he continued to release streams of his seed into her waiting womb, which seemed to absorb every string he had.
Yet after their sexual high ended, they both calmed down and panted for breath while still staring lovingly into each other's faces. "Thank you Leala… for being my first." He whispered soothingly.
(Thank you… for make me you're first, and for being my first… my love…) She said just as warmly.
They shared one more kiss before Safia tapped Nate's shoulder.
"Alright love… one down… one virgin to go." She said with a grin.
He nodded and pulled out of Leala, who sighed in sadness as she felt him leave, while her pussy leaked a little of his seed onto the bed.
After he pulled out he watched her turn around on the bed and knelt on her hands and knees, exposing her large firm butt to him, as well as her dripping sex. "Alright stud, now take me like the male I 'know' you are… you 'command' us well on the battlefield, but how 'good' are you in bed?" She asked slyly. "If what you did to Leala was good, I expect you to be just as good with me!"
"Alright then Safia." He said as he leaned over her back and lined up his still hard member with her sex.
He began to press into his Zoroark, but just as he did she smirked and shoved her rear at him, slamming both their hips together and forcing him to hilt. "Hnnng!" She moaned painfully as her face squinted in pain.
"Safia!" He asked as he saw her pained expression, ignoring how tight her walls were around his member as they wrapped around him.
Safia squinted through the pain as she looked back at him with a weary smile. "I know… it hurts… but I've wanted to do this with you Nate for so long…" She said. "I've wanted to give you my virginity because I love you… I just got a little impatient."
"Impatient is one thing…" He said with a small chuckle. "So shall I continue Safia?"
"I'm all yours 'stud'…" She said before she began moaning in pain as Nate began to thrust in and out.
Nate couldn't believe how much tighter Safia was compared to Leala, he thought that because she was taller and her hips were wider, her Zoroark body wouldn't be as tight as Leala's Lucario body. Yet she was just as tight, if not even tighter.
"Oh… come on… you can go harder… than this!" Safia moaned as he continued to push in and out of her sex.
"You want it harder?" He muttered, before he grabbed her waist with both hands and pulled her hard toward him.
"Ah~!" Safia cried loudly as she was handled roughly. "Now~… that's~… more~… like~… it~!"
He continued to pull her roughly against him, making their hips slap against one another and her moan louder with each time he hilted, feeling the tip of his dick press into her womb.
Meanwhile, Leala was busy watching as her Zoroark friend was fucked hard, wondering how she could enjoy being treated so roughly. Heck, she couldn't even imagine herself being nearly as brave as her, what with forcing her virginity to be taken as she did. She could even see the deep lines of red trailing down her legs mixed with her juices that dripped from her sex.
"Fuck… fuck me harder~!" Safia moaned as she pulled her head back, pushing her waist harder and harder and feeling his dick slamming into her pussy each time.
"Tell me how hard you want me to~!" He whispered seductively as he obliged her request, thrusting harder and harder as he neared his second orgasm with her.
"Fuck me… fuck me like a wild animal~! Fuck me as I'll only let you master!" She screamed blissfully, feeling a pressure growing inside of her. "Yes… right there, just like that… harder… harder… HARDER!"
They began pushing themselves so hard that the bed was creaking loudly with each movement. Then just as with Leala, he couldn't take anymore and hilted as far as he could into Safia's cunt, pulling her close to him and moaning loudly as he released more of his seed into her womb now.
"I'm comiiiiing~!" She moaned, her tongue hanging out of her mouth. "I've just lost my virginity… and I'm coming~!"
They both began to pant as he continued to release into her, before he and she came down from their sexual highs, collapsing onto the bed with him still inside of her. "I'm… so sorry Safia… I came inside… without warning you…" He whispered apologetically.
"Oh… shut up… master…" She whispered just as quietly. "I wanted you to come inside me as much as Leala. Just think of it as your birthday present…"
Leala crawled over to them and laid down on Nate's other side, nuzzling his cheek with her own cheek as she cooed in content. (Thank you Master Nate… for finally choosing us…) She said to him.
"You know… what I've just done… we can never let anyone find out…" He said softly.
"Well, that's easy then…" Safia chuckled. "Just keep it to ourselves."
"And while you're at it, you can put some clothes on Nate and you two can clean yourselves up!" A distracted voice called out from across the room.
They all looked up to see William slithering up the staircase, ignoring them as he balanced an oversized and elaborately decorated cake with his vines.
"William… I…"
"You heard me… this cake won't eat itself on your birthday!" He called out again as he continued to slither up the staircase.
They all just sat there and watched him leave, before looking at each other and bursting out in laughter.
Five minutes later they all climbed the staircase to Reshiram's chamber, and saw her with William and the cake. She smiled at the three of them as she saw them walking forward, hand in hand. (I see you have finally embraced your truths master?) She asked them with a smile.
He glanced at Safia and Leala and smiled at them, before nodding. "Yea Reshiram… I have…" He said. "I can't let the league find out about this, but I don't care what anyone or whatever law says I can't do with them. I care about Leala and Safia, as I would any 'human' girl, and I know they care about me."
(Good… and don't worry my master… we won't tell anyone.) Reshiram said with a smile. (But such thoughts should not be thought right now… we have a cake to eat… and it is your birthday!)
"Yes, so blow out the candles so we can eat!" William said.
He smiled as well and walked over to the enormous cake, enormous because Reshiram wanted to eat cake as well. Then with Leala and Safia smiling beside him, he took a deep breath, and blew out the candles.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" They all shouted.
=Exactly One Year Later=
*Narrator*
[Several months after Nate's birthday, he told the media that he had formed a new tag team with the Champion of the Sinnoh Region, Cynthia. They became an almost unstoppable force in the world challenge league, dominating all opponents set against them. Two months after this partnership, they both took a trip to Kalos to train in the harsh snowstorms of Route 17.]
[However, this training 'trip' was merely a cover story for one of the teams…]
(Safia's PoV)
"Alright, here's the blankets you requested." Jingle the Glaceon said as her human partner Evan handed her the blankets. "Will there be anything else?"
She smiled at the Glaceon as Evan went into the backroom to check on their supplies. "Actually there is something else you could get for me… if possible." She whispered. "Do you have any… male 'performance' pills…?"
The Glaceon smiled and nodded, then she jumped off the counter before going into the backroom as well.
She and the other members of their 'tag team' were all staying here on Route 17 in the famous, lonely lodge that was known as the 'Route 17 Lodge'. It was the only sign of civilization that could be seen or found on the snowstorm ridden route in Kalos. Yet they were here for another reason entirely as she glanced around the room.
The windows were all drawn shut, and even if they weren't nobody could see inside because the glass of the windows were all fogged up from snow. There was a warm fire off to the side, and all along the various tables were Pokemon and Humans, either milling about, playing games to pass the time.
Or in the case of quite a few, sharing private moments with each other to kiss and make out, without fear of anyone disturbing them out of respect and understanding.
Nearly every couple here, were couples of Pokemon and Humans, all staying at this lodge because out of everywhere in the world, at least that she knew, it was the sole place that was known among 'their kind', as a refuge for Pokemon and Human couples to be themselves.
They had learned about it from Cynthia, who had learned about it from her secretary, who had learned about it from a friend, and so on. And everyone there kept the 'true' place's intention a secret, out of respect for the previous owners, Darek and Snowflake, a Froslass and her Human companion as well as lover.
But the real reason they were spending time 'here' was because…
"Here you go!" Jingle said as she came back, dropping a little see through bag with a pill inside of it. "This will give any male who takes it enough stamina to last just over an hour. I hope this will suffice."
"Oh believe me, it will." She replied with a chuckle as she smiled at the little pill. "I'll just slip this into his drink before we get to it."
"Speaking of 'getting to it', I guess the guy getting this little pill also gave you the little 'bundle of joy'?" Jingle asked as she nodded at her.
Safia glanced down and rubbed at her enlarged stomach, smiling fondly as she felt the joyous bubbling sensation at getting pregnant from her crush.
They had been lucky a few times in the past year, however five months ago, a visit to Nurse Joy at the Pokemon Center revealed that she was pregnant. And not just her, Leala as well, they had both gotten pregnant around their individual birthdays.
When Cynthia learned of it, she and her Pokemon offered to cover for them, should the media learn of the two girl's pregnancies. They had even told them of this lodge so that they could 'cover up' the birth of Nate's children.
"Oh yea…" She said. "He gave me this little one alright."
"So exactly why do you want a pill? What's the occasion, his birthday or something?" Jingle asked.
"Actually yea, why'd you ask?"
"Because there's a Serperior that's making cake in our kitchen and won't let my hubby help him!" She said with a smile.
"Typical… that Serperior would make a cake for Nate." She said. "So one last question before I go upstairs… how exactly do you know how long this pill will help Nate go in bed?"
Jingle smirked as she nodded at the back room again. "Simple… because I like to give Evan a good time every once in a while." She said slyly. "And let me tell you… when he takes that pill, man does that human know how to fuck! My rear gets so sore just thinking about it, and it's even sorer when we go at it! I have to take a special 'female' pill just to last as long as him now!"
Safia smiled back as she took the pill, a couple glasses of water, and finally the blankets before she began heading upstairs again.
"More like I need to give him this pill just so he lasts with Leala." She whispered. "That Lucario may be timid off the battlefield, but after her first time in bed, she can be more fierce then me when having sex!"
As she entered their room, she saw Leala on the double king's size bed, rubbing her enlarged stomach as she smiled at it. (Did you get the pill?) She asked warmly.
"Right here!" She said as she held up the pill. "Oh I can't wait till he gets back from his flight with Reshiram."
"Speaking of our trainer, did you hear Cynthia last night with her Garchomp and Lucario?" Leala asked as they both sat next to each other. "How in the name of Arceus can a female human, even one as strong as Cynthia, go three whole hours with a Garchomp, and a Lucario, without 'ANY' performance enhancement pills?"
"Who knows…?" Safia said with a smirk as she pictured them going three whole hours with Nate.
They sat in silence before they looked at each other's stomachs. "How many are you expecting?" She asked Leala.
"Twins… you?"
"Twins as well…" Safia sighed in satisfaction. "What a trainer we have… getting us both pregnant… with twins each."
"Yea… what a master…" Leala said with a sigh of content.
