Disclaimer: I own nothing from the Pokémon games or the anime, or even the Pokémon Adventures Manga. I do however own Sherry, one of the girls who would end up with Ash alongside Misty, May, Dawn and Serena maybe even Pikachu having Glaceon and Bunneary. Again, I should mention that when I first made this story, X and Y was still new and many of the events from canonical series, including the Sun and Moon series and the 20th movie (the movie itself of course being a rehash of season 1 but without Brock and Misty as they were replaced entirely by two new characters named Sorrel and Verity, the latter being Cynthia's daughter) hadn't happened yet.
Yes, I am aware that Hybrids in both this story and Anthro Forest are different from ones in the Pokémon: Rise of Heroes saga and the May and Ash's Unova Journey saga due to the latter two not involving any form of infection required to becoming a hybrid but hey, I am pretty impressed with how EmperorDraco7, Lily Nadesico and NEBSparky86 are handling that concept.
Chapter 7 Losing control
Delia Ketchum looked out the window, a frown forming on her face as she heard the news about a virus that's been spreading throughout the entire Pokémon World and she couldn't even go out to see how her son or Pikachu were doing given that she'd be infected like everyone else. "I just wish I knew what's happening out there," she muttered to herself, all while Mimey was cleaning the house. "Ash, please be careful."
Surely enough, the phone began ringing nearby and went to see who was calling while at the same time hoped there was good news. "Hello?" she asked the moment she picked up the phone in order to find out who was on the other end and an image of Professor Oak appeared on the screen. "Professor Oak…"
"Hello, Delia," he said to the brown-haired woman with a frown on his face and next to him was his assistant Tracey Sketchit, whom traveled with Ash and Misty throughout the Orange Islands until choosing to stay in Pallet Town while his friends went with Brock to Johto, although he was doing all he could to help the Professor with finding a way to undo the damage the virus was causing and at the same time looking after the Pokémon that resided at the lab, including the professor's Rotom from the Decolore Islands, part of him hoped Misty wouldn't get herself involved given how she knew Ash the longest out of his friends. "How are you holding up?"
"So far, so good all things considering right now," answered Delia with a frown of her own and was hoping that there's something good the Professor wished to tell her. "Were you able to find a cure for everyone infected yet?"
Hearing this, Oak slowly shook his head. "I'm afraid not but Professor Ivy, Professor Elm, Professor Birch, Professor Rowan, Professor Juniper, her father and even Professor Sycamore, Spencer, my grandson Gary and Dr. Fennel are doing their best to help with finding a way to stop this thing" he said sadly, however that wasn't the only reason for he wanted to call his friend as there's actually something else which needed to be addressed. "That's the only thing we need to tell you."
"Huh?"
"We recently found out that not only were people being infected but it's evolving at a rapid pace the longer it is out" explained Tracey, trying to give her the news as carefully as possible without leaving out a detail that he and the Professor learned regarding the infection. "It's causing many who had fallen victim to undergo primal urges and won't be able to control themselves."
"W-what?!" exclaimed Delia in shock, becoming more fearful than ever before upon discovering the terrible information and prayed to god that there would be a way to stop this as her son and his Pokémon were out there. "Is this true?!"
"Yes, plus we managed to get in touch with the Cerulean City Gym and inform Misty and her sisters not to go out there for their own safety," added Oak, feeling it needed to be done and hope that Spencer would be able to keep his wife and his daughter Molly safe indoors because of the evolution of the virus and how there might be a chance for it to become so strong, the damage would become permanent unless something was done about it. "I just hope that Brock's family, May's family and Dawn's mother Johanna are safe and sound but with May and Dawn themselves, I'm not sure."
"And there's also Brock, Iris and Cilan to also take into consideration," commented Tracey while frowning, given that Brock, Iris and Cilan too were traveling in an effort to achieve their dreams much like how May and Dawn were both doing so yet he wished he could've met Dawn, Iris or Cilan though from what Brock told Oak, the Pokémon Connoisseur was with the future Pokémon Doctor along with Clemont and Bonnie at a Pokémon Center doing their best to stay safe. "We learned that only Pokémon were immune to it, the reasons are so far unknown but we are doing what we can to find out more on the virus in order to make a proper cure."
Delia gave a frown at this as the phone soon went off making all three wonder who was calling them right now, Delia was hoping against all hope that it was her son who was calling her to let her know that he was at least alright and not infected. "Hello," she said waiting to see who it was.
Until a face appeared on the screen and saw it was Daisy, Misty's older sister and Delia could notice the worry that was not on the young woman's face. Tracey noticed this as well and wondered what was going on as he moved forward. "Daisy what's going on?" He asked seeing that is was something and that she wanted to tell them as well.
"Tracey, Mrs. Ketchum, its Misty, she went to where Ash and the rest of her friends are, she said she wants to save them, I tried to tell her it's too dangerous but. Well you know Misty." Daisy said with a frown on her face as she looked at the two.
"Oh no what if…"Delia said with a look of horror on her face knowing that Misty might get infected if she was not careful, but she also knew why she wanted to do this as well. "Does she have a PokéGear on her at least?"
Daisy nodded at this as she told her the number that she could at least get Misty on. "Come on please pick up Misty." she said with a frown on her face as she heard the ringing, as soon it stopped and Delia could hear Misty's voice on the other side.
"Hello." Misty said from her end as she was wondering who it was calling her as she knew that only her sisters knew what she was doing, unless.
Delia simply gave a sigh hearing Misty's voice on the other ending. "Oh thank goodness Misty you picked up." Delia said giving a deep sigh once more, but knew she needed to tell Misty to stop what she was going to do right now. "Misty, look you need to stop and head back home."
Hearing this Misty shook her head, even if she knew Delia could not see her. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Ketchum but I can't not while the rest of my friends are in danger," Misty said with a hint of fear in her voice at the current situation that was going on with everyone she knew. "Besides I need to go and do whatever I can to help them."
Delia and the others back in Pallet Town still didn't like the sound of this and Delia and Tracey both knew that they needed to do something anything really to try and stop Misty from heading over to where the infection was right now. "Misty look I know that you want to help but right now we have the whole City blocked off." Professor Oak told Misty hoping she would not head there.
Misty hearing this knew that deep down Professor Oak was right, but still she knew if this was her and she was trapped in her home down Ash and the others would come and save her, so she was going to do the same for them as well no matter the danger. "I can't Professor, I'm sorry but I just can't go back to Cerulean and sit this all out," Misty began as she was holding back her tears right now knowing that her friends could be already infected. "If it was me then I know Ash and the others would be doing the same."
Delia just gave a smile at this as she took the PokéGear from Professor Oak all the while having a smile on her face having a good feeling that Misty cared a lot for her son, then again she did always see Misty as a daughter and hoped that one day she and Ash would be married. "Okay Misty, I understand but please you need to be careful, you know what the infected are like after all."
"Yeah I know been hearing it," Misty said as she now had a frown on her face hearing how many un-infected had been bitten and then changed themselves something she hoped wouldn't happen to her, but knew full well the danger she was heading into. "But I have my Pokémon with me so I'll be fine." She said as she soon hung up after saying goodbye since she had no time to waste after all.
Ash was still shocked at what he was seeing with his own eyes, as even Sherry looked at him seeing that something was not right with the girl that Ash knew and noticed that Ash was now moving forward most likely to try and save her. "Ash wait we can't." Sherry said with a whisper in her voice holding Ash back from doing anything stupid or even reckless right now.
Ash just looked at Sherry he was still worried for Dawn right now and saw the look of pain that she was in right now. "I know but Sherry we need to do something to help save Dawn." Ash told her still with a frown as he was not really sure what they were doing with her.
Sherry just continued to look at Ash and then over to where Dawn was and soon knew what was wrong with her and looked to Ash knowing full well he was not going to like hearing this, but she also knew it needed to be said. "Ash, I'm sorry she's infected like me you and everyone else."
Ash looked at Sherry when she said this and then he looked to where Dawn was and saw the look the blue hair girl hand on her face right now as he saw brown fur starting to grow on Dawn. "What should we do then we can't just watch."
Sherry nodded at this but she knew that right now they had to play the part of others that they liked their new bodies and new life. "Yeah I understand Ash but if we are found out we could be killed or just held until we have lost our human minds," Sherry added, all the while thinking of the best course of action right now that could help Dawn out. "So let's just wait Ash okay."
"Damn…" he muttered, silently cursing at the fact that now Dawn was a victim of the infection much like himself, Sherry, May and Serena which meant the only remaining friends he had which remained uninfected were Misty, Iris, Cilan, Brock, Tracey, Clemont and Bonnie not to mention that he had no idea if it would have any effect on Pokémon. "Can things get any worse?"
"I wouldn't say that if I were you…"
Ash frowned once again the moment Sherry mentioned that, then again she made a valid point as for all he knew, the Team Rocket trio might show their faces to cause them more unnecessary trouble and he prayed they wouldn't show up at a time like this. "Sorry, I'm really worried as now Dawn's a victim like the rest of us." he mentioned still worried about what May and Serena were doing and there might be a chance of Dawn joining them soon enough now that she was like them.
"I'm worried too, however at this point there's nothing more we can do," answered Sherry, showing her own share of concern for her new friends and part of her was curious on what the Team Rocket trio would do should they ever show up to their location but given what she learned of them from Ash, nothing good would come out of it. "Plus there is a chance that some infected by the virus might actually go on a killing spree."
"Wait what?!" asked Ash in complete shock at hearing there was a third side effect to being infected by the virus that they weren't aware of until now. "What do you mean go on a killing spree?"
"I'm not sure, but it depends on the person infected by the virus or what kind of hybrid they end up turning into" Sherry answered Ash's question, even she didn't have a clue on the full extent of the damned virus spreading around the entire Pokémon World or what other effects there were as a result of being a victim of it. "We're just lucky to have become hybrids that don't have a killing intent and from what I can see, Dawn is becoming one that doesn't have that intent either."
"That's a relief at least…" muttered the former male trainer from Pallet Town, remembering that there were vicious Pokémon he and his friends encountered during the course of their travels and it was no picnic having to deal with some of them either. "I just hope Iris and Misty don't get themselves involved in any of this, even more so Misty given that I knew her longer than the others."
Hearing what Ash mentioned about the other two girls, Sherry gave another frown as she understood how her friend was feeling. "I'm sure they'll be fine, they know better than to go out while there is still a virus spreading like wildfire," she tried her best to reassure him, even though she did miss her Pokémon and being human as well, there was a part of her that wished to see what it was like through the eyes of a Pokémon for a while regardless of whether it was a hybrid or not. "You did say that Iris was currently in Johto with Blackthorn City Gym Leader Clair to try and continue her goal of becoming a Dragon Master."
"Yes, I did," said Ash as he thought about the conversation he had with Sherry earlier regarding his previous travels through Kanto, the Orange Islands, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova and the Decolore Islands as well as his second time traveling through Kanto for the Battle Frontier. "Misty's an entirely different story since she lives in Kanto much like me and Brock."
"Oh?"
"I mean, sure she has her duties running the Cerulean City Gym but she isn't going to stand by and watch as the infection spreads throughout the world," continued Ash with a frown, still fearful to Misty and how she might become the next victim if she wasn't careful even if she was to bring her best Water-Type Pokémon with her for the mission. "Unfortunately, I'm not sure how she would feel if she sees me and May as hybrids."
"Well, I'm sure she'd want to help the two of you and even me and Dawn given we are your friends as well," Sherry began reassuring Ash again, especially since if Misty was willing to risk her own life to help a friend then that's all going to be worth it in the long run. "Besides, you told me that she saw you turn into a Pikachu and she didn't care even though you were able to return to normal."
"Yeah but that was from magic by our friend Lily and I'm glad it was temporary," Ash replied back, knowing there was a difference between what happened in Johto and the situation taking place right now. "I'm not even sure if this is the same case due to it being the result of a virus, not from magic."
"Point taken." said Sherry, giving another frown once Ash reminded her of them being two completely difference problems in general and suspected that the orange-haired Tomboyish Mermaid would have a means of protecting herself aside from just her Pokémon.
Looking away, Ash gave a sigh about the possibilities of if Misty did find them and what it could possibly lead to. "Part of me hopes that Misty wouldn't be looking for me or for May." he said sadly, catching Sherry's attention the moment she heard the tone of his voice.
"Huh?" wondered the former female turned hybrid as she started showing even more concern than ever before when Ash said that as if there was something he's actually fearing could happen if it was the case. "What do you mean?"
"Think about it, with the way May and Serena succumbed to their urges, what makes you think it wouldn't eventually happen to us next?" reminded Ash as he reflected on how May didn't act like herself at all when he saw her again and became worried for the Hoenn-born girl, especially as hell would break loose if he ended up doing something to Misty that he might live to regret for the rest of his life. "I'm also worried there's a chance I may end up infecting Misty if she finds me like this."
Before the two can discuss anything further, a voice erupted catching the attention of everyone present.
"Welcome my fellow hybrids and how glad I am to see you all come." The Hybrid on stage said as he made a quick bow before continuing to the other Hybrids. "As you know, we are now entering a brand new world, a world where we will need to continue our new species, which brings me to the point of this gathering. Behind me is a cage where we have collected some fresh, new comrades. Many of these young ladies are in need of mates, those to help them adapt to this new society and care for the next generation. They will lose their human minds soon enough, but we want to make sure they have good homes, so offer up things of use like food or medicine and the one who offers the best item will claim a new mate. If there are any disputes, then perhaps you can show through means of battle that you can protect and provide for the mate in question."
Hearing this Ash and Sherry looked at each other knowing this was bad news for Dawn and the others that had been captured right now as Ash looked over to where others not just women but a few men as well were locked up.
They two soon watched on seeing a girl with short blonde hair being taking out, looking on Ash could see she was about half way through her own changes as Ash soon noticed the girl grow a tail with a flame on the end. "She's becoming a Charmander, or something along its line of evolution." Sherry told Ash with a frown looking at the poor girl.
Seeing she was changing even more Ash looked to where Dawn was and saw the brown fur slowly covering her body as the hybrid on stage just kept talking as Ash watched as other girls were taken to be as mates.
Seeing more getting paired off Ash just knew it was going to be a matter of time before Dawn was picked and Ash knew that he needed to do something, anything really to help Dawn and save her from whatever would happen to her.
Sherry could also see the look that he had on his face and knew that he was going to do something, all she could hope for that it was nothing that would catch them out to still having their human minds. "No that it matters in time we shall be like everyone here." Sherry thought with a frown on her face as she looked over to Ash who was next to her.
Before long Dawn was taking out of her own cage, as the other Hybrids all looked at her seeing her body changing. "Now we move onto the last girl Dawn," he began with a smile bring the girl out who was simply terrified at what was going on right now. "Her changes are a lot slower than most, but as you can all tell she is becoming a Bunneary, now then…" He said with a smile on his face but before he could even go on with what he was about to say Ash stopped him.
Dawn for her part also heard Ash's voice as she looked up and then over to where she knew his voice was coming from and saw that like everyone here and including herself Ash too had become infected as well. "No please not you too Ash." Dawn thought as she looked over to Ash seeing he was a Lucario, while standing next to him was a blonde hair Pachirisu girl Hybrid. "Who is that girl next to him?"
She was soon snapped out from the thought as she looked to the Hybrid that was holding her captive began to speak as he turned to look at Ash. "And who are you then?" he asked with a frown on his face looking at Ash and Sherry.
"My name is Ash Ketchum." Ash said as he looked at the hybrid leader while also looking at Dawn hoping she was okay but knew that for both her own safety and both his and Sherry's own. "I know who this girl is and I have been looking for her." Ash said as he looked to where Dawn was and could see the fear in her eyes.
Sherry saw this as well but she too knew this part needed to be played out. "I really hope you know what you're doing Ash, this could very well blow up in our faces after all." Sherry thought frowning inside at this and looked over to Dawn seeing her ear growing and change to suite her new body she was getting.
All the male Hybrid could do was look at Ash and huff at this. "Sorry but like I said with have an order to thing right now, you need to earn her, if you want her to be your mate." He said still looking at Ash before looking over to where Sherry was. "Beside from the looks of things you already have a mate already."
Soon a male Zangoose hybrid came over looking at the two his gaze was fixed on Sherry something she didn't like at all as she moved closer to Ash. "Unless they haven't mated yet," he said with a grin now forming on his face looking at Sherry more intensely. "If that is the case then how about you come with me, and I can show you a real good time sweet-heart."
Ash just looked at Sherry and knew what he was talking about, but he had to act just like Sherry told him to so he pulled Sherry close to him with his hand by her waist while also giving a primal like growl seeing how he and some others were looking at Sherry. "And yes Sherry is my mate also so back off all of you!" Ash growled at them all mainly the male Zangoose hybrid that had come over and started hitting on Sherry.
The male Zangoose hybrid only looked at Ash when he said this and snorted at this and walked away from the three, not wanting to waste his time. "Fine have her sure there are many other mates to be had after all."
Ash just watched on as he saw the male Zangoose hybrid leave and looked to the Raichu hybrid that was still was looking at both Ash and Sherry. "Well be that as it may, you will still need to either offer something or battle for the right to have her." He said knowing that the others present right now wouldn't like this.
"Damm it now what am I going to do?" Ash thoughtlooking over to Sherry hoping that when they were alone she would have an idea that may help them out, but Ash knew that he was running out of time to help Dawn.
Sighing Ash just looked at the Raichu Hybrid with a deep frown as he saw that Dawn was now looking at him and saw her nose change as well. "Alright then I'll fight for her then, like I said I knew her when I was a human and we were close as well." Ash told him looking at many other Hybrids around him, already knowing that he was going to have to fight in order to save Dawn from this fate she was in right now.
The Raichu hybrid once again looked at Ash and soon closed his eyes at this thinking of this proposal that Ash had just made. "I will admit it would make things a lot more interesting for ones who want to show off their new skill," He said as looked over to a frightened Dawn who wanted to just runaway right now. "Okay then, I'll allow this you'll get to fight for the right to have her as your mate."
"What did you just say?!"
Cilan borrowed Brock's PokéGear in order to contact his friend Iris, whom he suspected was still in Blackthorn City training under its Gym Leader Clair in order to continue her dream of becoming a Dragon Master and from the tone of her voice, she didn't sound happy about what happened to Ash although the former Gym Leader of the Striaton City Gym couldn't blame her since Ash was their friend. "I'm afraid it's true, Iris," he explained to the dark-skinned Dragon-Type user with a frown on his face and had actually hoped to speak with her on better terms. "Sadly we don't know where he is let alone his Pikachu and another friend of his."
"I see…" muttered Iris with another frown, still new to using a PokéGear to speak with anyone and was grateful to Cilan for letting her know this along with getting her up to date on everything up till now then realized something. "Wait a minute, do your brothers Cress and Chili know about this?"
"Yes, I spoke with them on the situation while we were at the Pokémon Center," answered Cilan with a small nod of his head and concern forming in his own voice due to there so far being no clues to where Ash, Pikachu and Serena had gone to. "Brock, Clemont, Bonnie and I are doing everything we can to find Ash and his friend Serena."
"Well that's good at least," said Iris with some relief in her voice, although she frowned again because there was a chance she had a feeling on who was responsible for the virus spreading throughout the entire Pokémon World. "You think that Team Rocket is the cause of this?"
All Cilan did was shake his head sadly. "Unfortunately no," he answered, wishing it was the case but it clearly wasn't or at least, not that he knew of. "Now that I think about it, we haven't even seen them lately which makes me further suspect they're not behind this."
"Is that so?" asked Iris, starting to become even more suspicious than ever and knew that something had to be done before it got worse. "I think Axew and I should head to where you guys are, maybe we'll be able to help with whatever was responsible for the virus and even find Ash."
"What, are you crazy?!" exclaimed Cilan as he knew that this was a situation that was too dangerous even for Iris. "Who knows what could happen if you leave, besides what if you got infected too?!"
"Well, you and your friends are doing all the work in trying to find Ash and trying stop this mess are you not?" reminded Iris, not wanting to be left out of this one bit and felt Axew wanted to do his part in putting an end to the virus one way or another. "Don't forget, I battled against Drayden twice and even been through similar situations like this in both Unova and the Decolore Islands so you better watch what you say, mister."
"Still, I am worried about you…" Cilan replied with a frown forming on his face, knowing that the situations she mentioned and the virus or a hybrid infecting her were an entirely different story after all plus he, Brock, Clemont and Bonnie all wanted to make sure they don't become the next victims while searching for Ash and Serena. "Plus we have no idea if the virus had already gotten to Johto yet."
"I understand how you feel but trust me, I have Axew, Excadrill, Emolga, Dragonite and Gible with me so I should be able to handle it," reassured Iris and she actually hoped she'd get a chance to show her friends the new male Dragon-Type that she was able to catch following her loss against Clair and her shiny Druddigon back at the Blackthorn City Gym. "In any case, I'll be sure to let Shanon, Drayden and the Dragon Elder know about the virus while I'm on my way to meet up with you guys so no need to worry."
Cilan remained silent at this, still not liking the idea of Iris wanting to come meet with him and the others but before he could answer, he heard the PokéGear's phone feature going off which made the two wonder who was calling at a time like this. "Hello?" he asked upon answering the call.
"Cilan, it's me Professor Oak."
"Professor Oak, it's been a while since we last talked with one another," said Cilan as he reflected on the last time he and Iris met the Pokémon professor from Kanto way back during their travels with Ash at the Decolore Islands, more specifically the one where Oak caught his Rotom. "Is something the matter?"
"As a matter of fact, Cilan, there is a problem," said Oak's voice from the other end and it made the Pokémon Connoisseur frown the moment he heard that answer which made him pray that nothing bad happened to Ash or Serena. "By the way, is Brock there? I'm actually kinda surprised you answered his PokéGear. Now that I think about it, how did you get it anyway?"
"Oh hold on," Cilan informed Oak before approaching the former Pewter City Gym Leader and handing the PokéGear back to him. "It's Professor Oak; he wants to talk to you."
"Okay," Brock replied, glad to hear that Professor Oak was doing okay as was Tracey then went onto the PokéGear in order to speak with the older man in hopes of hearing what he had to say. "Hello, Professor Oak."
"Brock, thank heaven's you're okay," Oak sounded relieved to hear the future Pokémon Doctor's voice as he was beginning to think he might have gotten infected when he previously heard Cilan at the other end although there was something that he had to say, yet they weren't going to be happy about it one bit. "I'm afraid I have bad news."
"Huh? Is it about Ash or Serena?"
"Well, yes and no…" answered Oak as the news he was going to reveal would prove to be one hell of a huge shock to Brock and the others, however they had the right to know given the virus slowly evolving the longer it was out there despite him having aid from the other Professors of the Pokémon World in trying to make a working cure. "Misty has just left the Cerulean City Gym to search for Ash."
Brock was shocked at this as he wondered what and why Misty would do this knowing full well that she could be infected. "Why would she do this?" Brock asked knowing it was not safe to head back.
Oak and Delia however knew the answer and they were sure that Brock also knew the answer to this as well. "Brock," Delia began as she decided to speak up to Ash's friend. "I think that you know why she is doing this Brock, she loves him." Delia said with a frown on her own face as she hoped that Misty was still safe.
Brock nodded at this as well as he gave a sigh of his own. "Yeah they were both always close to each other." he said knowing both had some kind of hidden feeling for each other, but sadly both were so damn stubborn that neither wanted to admit it to the other.
"Brock if you by chance find her you need to get her out of there, I fear that Ash may very well be infected but I can't be all that sure myself, but we are making sure we are counting all possible outcomes right now." Professor Oak told Brock to which the older teen nodded.
"I will Professor, I just hope that Ash isn't infected and he's out here in the woods with the others as well, but if I do see Misty I'll stop her." He said as Delia gave a sigh and a small thank you too.
However at this very moment Ash was looking at Dawn as a male decided that he would fight Ash for the girl that he wanted to be his mate. "I'll do it!" he cried with fury while both Sherry and Ash looked at the one at the hybrid which from what the two could tell was an Ursaring Hybrid and he had a smirk on his face. "I'll fight and kill him and then you shall both be my mates!"
Ash hearing this grunted knowing he would fight he just hoped that he could end it but Sherry pulled him closer to whisper to him. "Ash please you need be careful." She said with some fear in her voice as she knew that neither of them have had time to learn how to use their new powers.
"I'll be fine." Ash said, since he knew it was all that really needed to be said right now as he looked back to the Ursaring Hybrid noticing the smile that he now had on his face and could fell the intent that was coming off from the male Hybrid too.
The leader who had organized this and now looked at the two hybrids wishing that they didn't fight, as this wouldn't help the new order that they were trying to build after all. "But it can't be helped after all." He thought as her walked over towards the two. "Okay then but no killing each other we are building a new world after all, one better from the ones we had as humans."
The Ursaring hybrid nodded at this looking at Ash with a darkened glare in his eyes. That's fine by me, I'll just hurt this punk trying to think he is all that."
Yet for Ash he just ignored this knowing that this needed to end fast as he had to get Dawn out of this place, once he knew that Dawn was safe and back at the house that he and Sherry along with May and Serena were staying at then, and only then could they all make a plan. "Still they are not thinking straight right now," he thought knowing full well from what Sherry had told him the same fate will be waiting for all of them. "It's just a matter of time after all."
"Shall well proceed?"
Remaining silent for a bit, Ash slowly nodded his head as he was hoping to at least handle himself against the Ursaring Hybrid. "You better believe it" he said, getting ready for the fight of his life as this was going to be a new experience for him fighting as a hybrid without Pikachu or any of his other Pokémon to help him. "But be warned, I'm not going to hold back against you!"
Hearing this, the Ursaring hybrid started to laugh. "Is that so, well I look forward to seeing what you can do… now take this!" he roared, preparing to slash at Ash with his claws and he saw the former male trainer from Pallet Town barely evading the attack much to his annoyance. "Not bad, but that's going to take more than that to defeat me…"
He soon began to swipe at Ash with his claws again and each time, Ash only barely managed to avoid each one though he himself was surprised by how agile he was then again, it was mainly due to the fact he was a hybrid that could handle himself in terms of speed compared to the Ursaring hybrid that he was pitted against. "Whoa!" he yelled, finding himself using his tail to unexpectedly the opposing hybrid in the face.
"Wow" began Sherry, a bit impressed by what she was seeing although her attention soon turned around the cage that Dawn was in, believing it could be a chance for her to save the poor girl from Sinnoh should Ash be unable to take his opponent down on his own. "Okay, here goes nothing…"
As she made her way towards the cage, the Ursaring Hybrid shook his head and had somewhat never expected to be struck by a surprise hit like that. "You had me off guard with that tail, however don't think that with your speed and lucky shot would win this one…" he said while frowning, knowing her had other tricks up his sleeves. "Watch and see what I can do when I'm serious!"
He jumped into the air and soon slammed his feet onto the ground, causing a tremor which made Ash almost fall to the ground. Unfortunately, this left him wide open to another attack as he found himself struck by a powerful slash from the Ursaring Hybrid's claws. "Hah, you didn't expect my combination of Earthquake and Slash did you?" he mocked with a grin as he saw Ash on the ground from the two hits dealt to him. "You're way over your head if you think you can defeat me."
"Dammit…" muttered Ash, managing to get back onto his feet although it wasn't easy given the amount of pain he felt from being hit by two powerful attacks like that… starting to understand how Pikachu and the rest of his Pokémon felt whenever they were in battles they were close to losing or couldn't win against at all.
"What's the matter? Was my combination too much for you?" he heard the Ursaring hybrid mocking him once again as he felt that this would be an easy victory at this point. "Why don't you admit defeat and stay down to avoid further humiliation?"
"No…"
This enemy hybrid didn't like the answer he was being given. "No?" he asked, hoping that Ash was not being serious by not backing down while he had the chance.
"What, are you brain-dead? I said no!" snapped Ash, although panting, he still had the look of determination which he had whenever he was facing another trainer in battle, regardless of if they were a regular trainer, a gym leader, a member of the Elite 4 or even a champion or a member of a crime syndicate like Team Rocket. He wasn't going to give up nor was he going to allow Dawn or Sherry to become mates to a monster like him. "There's absolutely no way in hell I'm going to back down against someone like you!"
The Ursaring hybrid could only laugh at what Ash was saying knowing that he was being foolish and knew he simply wanted to end this fight right now, so he could clam the girl known by Dawn as his mate maybe even the girl called Sherry too.
For Ash he knew that he needed to do the same as well for both Dawn and Sherry or who knows what this monster would do to them if he should lose. "I can't let that happen to them or May and Serena either." Ash thought with a deep frown on his face as he felt an unknown need to keep them safe too.
Sherry was looking at Ash too as the Pachirisu looked on with fear seeing that the Ursaring hybrid charging forward to Ash, with Sherry soon crying out in fear along with Dawn seeing Ash was knocked down to the ground.
All Ash could do at this was grunt in pain once he had fallen to the ground as the Ursaring hybrid began to repeatedly punch Ash in the face, all the while laughing at this knowing he was not going to lose now since in his mind he had won this battle.
Blood was soon coming out from Ash's mouth as he was continued to get punch in the head by the Ursaring hybrid who didn't want to let up. "No Ash!" Both Dawn and Sherry cried out in fear both seeing what was happening.
This however didn't long for Dawn as she felt another jolt of pain making Dawn fail down to her knees making Sherry look over the blue hair girl seeing that she was changing even more now. "She had to been infected by one of her own Pokémon or a male hybrid that had bitten her." Sherry thought with a frown as she moved to comfort the poor girl knowing the pain of the transformation that she was going through right now.
Dawn just continued to cry in pain as all Sherry could do right now was simply watch on as her transformation was coming to it end or at least Sherry was hoping it would be over for her soon. "Please make it stop it hurts!" Dawn cried out as her bones soon changed.
Sherry watched on seeing Dawn's legs change since she was becoming a Bunneary then she needed her legs to be right for her new form that she was getting after all. Sherry just placed a hand on Dawn should as she was now painting trying to catch her breath. "Don't worry it will be over soon," Was all Sherry could really say to Dawn, at this very moment. "Just don't fight it or it will only hurt you even more."
Dawn on the other hand was now looking up to sherry as she held her arms around her side knowing that this was a pain like she had never felt before and right now all she wanted was for it to end. "But it hurts so much!" She cried out as her tail soon grew out from just above her butt.
Ash was looking over to see the pain that Dawn was in knowing that he needed to act fast so he and Sherry could take Dawn out of here and then back to the home that they were all currently staying at right now. "I'm not going to let you win!" Ash yelled with new fury in his voice as he kicked the Ursaring hybrid in the stomach.
The Ursaring stumbled backwards at this holding onto his stomach as he looked up and over to Ash with a fury of his own. "You got a lucky shot kid, but it's not going to happen again!" he said as he gave off a mighty roar and had his sharp claws at the ready to end this fight. "As I'm done playing games with you she and the blonde girl shall be my mates!"
"Not gonna happen!" Ash yelled as well ready to keep fighting too but he also knew that deep down he needed to end this but is more primal form was slowly taking hold of him and he didn't even know it. "He is trying to take away my mates I can't let him."
Sherry was now looking over at Ash and she soon saw the look that he was now getting in his eyes and it was concerning her as she knew that Ash was starting to lose himself to the virus, and she needed to stop it and fast. "Ash, you need to end this already."
When he heard Sherry voice yelling at him he snapped out for the trance that he had been in and shook his head as he looked at Sherry and nodded at her. "Okay Sherry I got this." He said and gave her a smile, but gave a deep sigh knowing what had just almost happened to him. "That was too close I'm starting to lose my mind as well." Ash thought knowing he may soon end up like May and Serena before long.
All the Ursaring hybrid did was laugh at Ash. "She seems to care for you, not that it matters as she is going to be with someone that can give her strong young after all."
Meanwhile, a certain trio of Pokémon thieves were hanging on the branch of a tree ever since they were previously sent blasting off by the hybrids earlier. "Why do these things always happen to us?" asked Jessie with a scowl, having lost count of all the times she and her fellow partners of crime were sent blasting off whether it be by Ash, his friends or by something else.
"Well you can say it's just our luck," answered James, although he was grateful that the protective suits that he and Jessie wore were doing their job in keeping them from being infected so far provided that there wouldn't be any holes or tears that could possibly allow the virus to get through to their respective bodies. "Look at the bright side, Jess. At least we didn't become victims of the virus."
"Yeah, what's your point?"
Although hanging by a branch, it didn't take long before Meowth realized something… "Guys, we'd best be careful while on here…" he said getting the attention of his human partners in crime since they never had any form of good luck whenever they were hanging on something. "One slip up and we might fall flat on our faces like all those other times beforehand."
"Great…" muttered both Jessie and James as they didn't need to relieve that painful experience again at a time like this although part of them wished they hade a Pokémon that could carefully get them back onto the ground much like how Ash and his friends usually had such in these situations.
Sadly, it didn't take long before something indeed went wrong for them again as a familiar blue Psychic-Type popped out of his Pokéball. "Wobbuffet!" he said, causing the branch the trio were on to break and they started feeling déjà-vu from when Jessie managed to catch her female Wurmple way back in Hoenn.
"Oh no, not again!" the three screamed as the branch broke and they all fell to the ground, with a loud crash being heard from the area that they ended up in…. luckily, nothing caught wind of this nor the fact they fell flat on faces or at least they thought.
As the Team Rocket trio lay on the ground, Wobbuffet was right on top of them and needless to say, Jessie was again not too pleased that the male Psychic-Type for doing the thing she didn't want him to do though she started to understand how Misty felt whenever Psyduck did that with her. "How many times do I have to tell you stop doing that?!" she exclaimed although she was just about ready to call him back into his Pokéball when they heard something rustling within the bushes. "What was that?"
"I don't know but I have a bad feeling about it," commented James, hoping it wasn't another group of hybrids because they were already having a bad enough day as it is trying to find Ash and his friends as well as wanting to avoid becoming hybrids themselves so he turned his attention towards the male Normal-Type. "Meowth, you and Wobbuffet go see what it is?"
"What?! Why?!"
"So far you and Wobbuffet are completely immune to the virus" James replied to Meowth, glad to know that both Meowth and Wobbuffet were not affected by the virus that was spreading throughout the Pokémon World by far so hopefully it would be enough to give them an advantage over whoever it was causing the whole mess to begin with. "Besides, if it makes you feel better we can send Inkay and Pumpkaboo to help you out."
Making good on their promise, the two humans sent out Inkay and Pumpkaboo to accompany Meowth and Wobbuffet to deal with what kind of creature was waiting within the bushes. "Okay guys, we strike on three…" began the male Scratch Cat, hoping that Inkay, Wobbuffet and Pumpkaboo would help him in taking out whatever it was in the bushes once he gave the signal. "One, two, three!"
Jus as they jumped at the bushes, a familiar puppy Pokémon came out in order to evade the four Pokémon that came out at it which made Jessie and James shocked to see a Growlithe in a region like Kalos. "A Growlithe!" began James; however the moment the Fire-Type heard his voice, the expression it had lessoned as it slowly approached him and began sniffing him. "Wait a minute… Growlie?"
'Thank god I was about to find you!' began Growlie, the moment he recognized not only James' voice but also his scent as it was clear the puppy Pokémon from the purple-haired young man's mansion was worried that his master would have fallen victim to the virus that had been spreading. 'What exactly is going on here?'
"It's a long story, now that I think about it… how did you manage to find your way to Kalos?" he asked his faithful companion, especially as normally Growlie would be present should Jessiebelle be involved whether it be in Kanto or Sinnoh although the expression on his face changed the moment he thought about his former fiancé. "Is Jessiebelle here too? I really hope she isn't as we already have enough problems without her adding to it!"
'You need to sit down, because what I'm about to tell you could take a majority of your time.'
Ash continued to battle the hybrid that was in front of him knowing that he needed to end this battle as fast as he could, he knew he couldn't waste anymore time dealing with the crazed hybrid before him. "I need to end this and now." Ash thought with a frown and knew that his appoint was thinking the very same as well.
Seeing the Ursaring hybrid charging towards him Ash knew this had to end here and now, as he could already feel that he was losing himself to the fight that was going on with the fellow hybrid. Looking forward and seeing the Ursaring closing in Ash remembered just what his new form could do and just how good he was with Aura, so he closed his eyes.
The Ursaring Hybrid never saw the Aura that was forming in Ash's hands and waited for just the right moment to strike, knowing full well that this could be his one and only chance to end this fight. "Come on just a little closer." He thought as he looked at Dawn and the pain that she was in right now knowing full well she was doing all she could to fight off her transformation.
Once the male Ursaring Hybrid was in close range for Ash to attack him with his Aura Sphere and strike the hybrid directly in the stomach as Ash watch the Ursaring's eyes shot open in both shock and pain before falling to the ground.
Sherry just simple gave a sigh knowing that Ash had won and it was over at least she hoped that it was over knowing it was best to leave with Dawn and quickly giving how she was changing right now and looked at Ash who was sighing too at this very moment. "Okay my mate won can we leave." Sherry said as she wanted to leave. "I kind of like the sound of that damn the virus is starting to take hold got to fight it off for as long as I can." Sherry thought to herself with a frown knowing she was running out of time.
"Okay, okay I did say that." The announcer said looking over to Ash who was now coming over as Dawn was almost done with her transformation and looked up at Ash with some fear in her eyes at the whole situation.
Ash however just nodded as Dawn let out another cry of pain which caused Ash to rush over to her seeing the pain she was in and he could understand in full the pain Dawn was in, since he had gone through it after all. "Dawn!" Ash cried out running over to where she was.
Dawn hearing Ash's voice looked up to Ash and was still scared but she just looked into Ash's eyes and saw something in them , she had no idea what it was but she just had a feeling that Ash was still the Ash she knew and loved.
Picking Dawn up Ash just looked at the many hybrids that was around them and then looked to Sherry and knew it was time to leave now. "Thank you I would like to take my mate to our home." Ash said as he acted the part that was needed to be played as well.
Sherry helped Dawn to her feet which for Dawn were still in pain from the change that had just happened to them, Dawn couldn't help but wonder just who this Pachirisu girl was, right now so many thoughts were running through her mind right now.
Sherry just looked at Dawn and knew that the girl next to her was scared shitless and to be honest she couldn't at all blame the poor girl for feeling this way, after all Sherry and felt the same as well when she had first changed so she needed to help the poor girl and knew Ash would be around to help as well.
"Dawn look it's okay trust me." Ash said, looking at her as they knew now was the time to go as he gave a quick glance to where Sherry was who simply nodded at Ash as the three soon left the city knowing full well that place was not safe for them to be in.
After an hour of walking they soon stopped knowing that they were now at least in a safe location so they could talk to Dawn who was feeling hot and knew she was still keeping her clothes on, "Well I guess that means she still has her human mind then." Sherry said as she gave a thankful sigh at this and looked to Ash and then Dawn.
Dawn simply looked at the two hybrids in front of her she knew that something was up. "Ash, are you still you?" She asked trying to not sound frightened right now which Ash or Sherry couldn't blame her for really.
"Yeah I'm still me Dawn so no need to worry right?" He said with a smile looking at Dawn using her catchphrase that she had used so much which only caused her to laugh at this, now knowing that it was really Ash.
Looking at her some more all Ash did was node his head at her knowing she needed to know that everything was alright, and he was okay as well. Knowing that everything for the most part at least was okay Dawn soon let out a cry and hugged Ash crying tears of joy that she was at least safe. "Ash, I was so scared, I mean you've seen what's been going on as well right?"
When Dawn Ash this both Ash and Sherry nodded their heads at this as they looked at each other with Ash knowing it would be best that Sherry told Dawn and so that she could earn Dawn's trust as well. "Sherry you tell her I'll keep a look out." He said with a smile as Dawn just looked at Ash not really wanting him to go.
Hearing this Dawn began to panic not wanting Ash to leave her in fear of what might happen. "No please stay Ash I don't want you to go not after all that's happened please." Dawn said with a frown of worried that crossed her new muzzle like face.
Sherry could tell why Dawn was feeling like this she was now in a sense a rabbit type Pokémon and they did always have this fear in them to simple run away from danger, which Sherry knew that Dawn wanted to do right now was flee. "Her Pokémon mind is telling her to run but that other part wants Ash to be close to her as well as she feels safe with him around her." Sherry thought all the while looking at Dawn with worry.
Ash just looked at Dawn and couldn't help but simply frown with worry for her and knew that he couldn't leave her with the state that she was in right now.
Pikachu for the most part was just as worried, especially as he and Glaceon were on the move to look for their respective trainers yet at the same time they also hoped that they wouldn't come across any hybrids or even the Team Rocket trio due to not having any means of healing themselves. 'Mama!' she cried out, hoping her human mother May would hear her but to now avail. 'Mama, where are you?!'
The male Mouse Pokémon frowned since there was no sign of Ash, May or Serena anywhere, not even Brock, Clemont or Bonnie let alone Dedenne as while the latter three were hopefully somewhere safe from the infection. 'If only we could find a clue on where any of them were, I'm not a Growlithe as it would've made things a lot easier' he muttered to himself, the good thing was he didn't need to worry about a possibility of Glaceon double crossing him unlike Meowth.
It didn't take long however before he noticed that Glaceon stopped moving entirely and he saw the upset expression on her face because of not having any luck with finding either their humans or their fellow Pokémon in the area. 'You okay?' he asked with concern before approaching the female Ice-Type Eeveelution.
'No, I'm not fine… I should have been able to protect her, she looked after me all that time and yet I couldn't do a thing and…'
'Glaceon!' Pikachu interrupted, understanding how Glaceon was feeling right now but there really wasn't much the female Ice-Type could've done to prevent May from becoming a victim of the infection, then again he himself knew what it felt like due to failing to keep Ash and/or Serena safe. 'You were doing your best, I mean I failed in several battles and I'm still going.'
Remaining silent, Glaceon took in what Pikachu was telling her and then frowned again. 'That's easy for you to say, you at least managed to redeem yourself for your failures' she spoke once more, as if believing the Mouse Pokémon that she had been friends with since the Battle Frontier was just saying it to make her feel better. 'I on the other hand, believe that I just let my human mother down all over again… just like at the Wallace Cup.'
'Is bringing the Wallace Cup up that necessary?' asked Pikachu as he remembered how Glaceon did her best against Dawn's Piplup but ultimately it ended in Dawn's victory during the final round of the competition in Sinnoh and he saw how down Glaceon was though May cheered her up despite their loss to Dawn and her Starter in the end. 'I mean, there are a lot of things worse than that.'
'Oh? How so…'
'Where do I begin?' he started, especially as there were four huge examples he could think of that he didn't wish to bring up but at the very least should tell her in order to cheer her up a little over what happened at the Wallace Cup and how May became a Hybrid following that. 'Well you could have either fought a trainer who used a team of Legendary Pokémon to defeat you and your trainer in the Semi-Finals of a Pokémon League tournament, lost the ability to use your strongest attacks due to a powerful Legendary and cost you a battle against a new trainer who picked their starter in a region, or you could have faced an overpowered Dragonite that tanked every Ice-Type move you use against him and then be defeated in one hit, or even face off against a complete moron who thought their match was gonna be a five on five one and that seven badges were needed to enter a Pokémon League and you lose to said opponent in the Quarter-Finals of said league due to their Riolu evolving into a Lucario.'
As much as he hated to bring up Ash's defeats at the hands of Tobias in the Sinnoh League Semi-Finals, Trip in their first battle at Unova and Cameron in their match at the Unova League Quarter-Finals as well as Dawn's defeat at the hands of Iris and her Dragonite at the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup, he had no choice because he didn't want to see Glaceon so upset and dishearten. 'What?' she started to speak again, shocked at hearing what Pikachu had told her just now. 'Is any of that true?'
'All of it, for you see Ash lost the Sinnoh League Semi-Finals against Tobias who used a team of Legendary Pokémon against him and that same team is what ultimately won him the Sinnoh League tournament, sure we only saw two of his Legendaries which happened to be a Darkrai and a Latios, that should have been considered cheating and gotten him disqualified for it plus while we never saw what his other four Pokémon were, what's to say that they also weren't Legendaries?' he replied, still shivering at the fact that a trainer like Tobias got a free pass for using Legendary Pokémon in the Sinnoh League as he, Ash and the others never saw any other trainer do so there or in the Indigo League, the Johto League, the Hoenn League or the Unova League plus Drake never used any when Ash and Pikachu took him on at Pummelo Island in order to win the Orange League. 'As for the other examples, when Ash and I first arrived in Unova, a Legendary Pokémon caused Zekrom caused me to temporarily be able to use electricity let alone my Electric attacks which proved to be a problem when we took on Ash's rival Trip there. While Trip isn't as bad as Paul, he was still a jerk and his Snivy somehow managed to easily defeat me with one Leaf Tornado attack.'
Glaceon couldn't believe what she was hearing and approached Pikachu, showing concern for him the moment he began opening up to her about things far worse than simply letting May down at the Wallace Cup. 'I… I had no idea…' she began, placing a paw onto Pikachu's right cheek in a caring gesture all while the Electric-Type gave a small sigh.
'It's okay, really… besides, I'm fine now and that's all what matters' he reassured her almost immediately and took a deep breath before continuing on from where he left off. 'This brings me to the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup at Driiftveil City, Dawn and her newly caught and evolved Mamoswine were pitted against a Dragon-Type user named Iris and her recently caught Dragonite though they tried their best… sadly their best wasn't' good enough as Iris managed to defeat her despite Dragonite not obeying a single command whenever he was used in the tournament.'
'Did you really have to bring that up?!'
Pikachu and Glaceon were caught off-guard by an annoyed voice although they realized it sounded rather familiar to them. 'That voice, could it be…' he muttered before the two turned to see that the voice belonged to none other than Piplup as the male Water-Type from Sinnoh and a familiar female Normal-Type from said region had managed to find them. 'Piplup? And Bunneary as well?'
'Hello Pikachu and Glaceon, long time no see!' began Bunneary, happily pouncing onto Pikachu much to Glaceon's slight dismay especially when she saw how close the female Normal-Type was towards the Mouse Pokémon, that and pouncing on him was supposed to be her thing not that she had anything against Bunneary as she's glad her friends from Sinnoh were okay. 'Did you miss me?'
'Yeah, I did…' answered a completely flustered Pikachu as he was hoping he'd tell Glaceon about how he and Ash were ultimately defeated by Cameron and his Lucario at the Unova League Quarter-Finals though it would have to wait since not only did the two have some catching up to do with Piplup and Bunneary but a thought came to mind since they wouldn't be here without their trainer unless something happened to her like it did to Ash, May and Serena which he prayed wasn't the case at all because he and Glaceon already had enough problems. 'Wait a minute, is Dawn with you?'
Unfortunately his answer was the two Pokémon who found them shaking their heads, a bad sign that something did indeed happen that they weren't aware of. 'No and we've been looking for her ever since…' Piplup spoke though couldn't finish his sentence as it was too painful to bring up, even Bunneary didn't want to do so.
'Oh no, don't tell me…' said Glaceon as she started putting two and two together, because the same thing happened to May which led to her being separated from the brown-haired girl from Hoenn prior to her own reunion with Pikachu and it caused her to become worried again. 'Dawn got infected and had been transformed into a hybrid too?'
'I don't know it was all crazy and she told me to run.' Piplup said is a worried tone, and soon looked up at both Pikachu and Glaceon with more worry and fear than before.
Pikachu knew things were not going to get any easy, not to mention that their trainers were still missing as well and none of them had any idea where they were or if they were still them knowing full well that they could or are infected with this virus.
Meanwhile Ash and Sherry had told Dawn all that they knew and what would eventually happen to everyone that still had their human minds, this just caused Dawn more fear knowing what would happen to them all eventually.
Ash knew what Dawn feared and didn't blame her really, but right now they couldn't stay here for fear of being found out and then captured thanks to them still thinking like humans still. "Okay Dawn we need to go now the house should not be too far now."
Sherry looked at Ash and Dawn knowing that they needed to start moving now. "Okay let's just hope that things back home are going fine." She said with a frown on her face.
After walking some more the three soon arrived to the home and saw that no other hybrid had arrived, which they were thankful for at least. The three walked into the home as the three highly sense of smell could smell something had gone on and.
For Sherry she knew what this meant and knew right then and there that Serena had lost her human mind and was now like many others. "This is great and trouble for us as well." She thought thinking as fast as she could as the smell from both girls having sex was getting to her.
Dawn was shocked by his as well soon looking over to both Ash and Sherry on what they should do all the while fighting of the desire and voice in her head to mate with Ash. "Sherry what are we going to do?" Was all dawn could ask right now, and Sherry knew that Dawn had a very good point.
Ash on the other hand was too attracted the sent that he was now smelling and he couldn't help but go towards it he could already hear the giggles from both May and Serena. As this happened both Dawn and Sherry could only watch on knowing full well that this was not a good sign at all.
"Ash what's the matter?" Dawn cried out to him seeing that he was heading towards where May and Serena most likely was right now, Dawn just saw this as she started to move forward to stop Ash or find out what was going on.
Sherry soon placed her hand on Dawn shoulder stopping her from going after Ash. "Look I know that you want to help but its best that you don't." Sherry said with a frown as she looked at Ash, knowing what was going since she witnessed this first hand with some males that had been turned.
Ash on the other hand continued to march forward before reaching the door which lead to the room which he could smell both May and Serena in and he could hear their voices from inside the room both laughing and talking.
"Is this true?"
"You bet, the Pokémon Contests are a blast and I really enjoyed participating in them," answered May, especially as Ash, Dawn and Sherry listened in on the conversation that the brown-haired girl from Hoenn was having with Serena and from what they could tell, the two girls inside were really starting to get along well with one another. "It's not just Hoenn, Kanto and Johto either because Sinnoh has its own share of Pokémon Contests as Dawn told me she was participating in them."
"Wow, that's pretty cool to hear," responded Serena as she was becoming rather interested in giving that a try had she learned about it sooner though regardless, it's exciting to be able to talk to another girl, even more so one who happened to have traveled with Ash before she herself came into the picture. "If I had learned about that while I was at Professor Oak's Pokémon Summer Camp then maybe I would have been more interested in coming to Kanto."
"Is that so?" May asked of the Kalos born blonde-haired girl with curiosity in her voice, starting to wonder how Serena would have done in a Pokémon Contest if she decided to participate in one regardless of which region she went to out of the four mentioned. "I'm sure you would have done a great job as a Pokémon Coordinator and maybe even would have gotten to take part in a Grand Festival too."
"Yeah, that's true," Serena replied back, neither of the girls, are aware that Ash, Dawn and Sherry were listening in on their conversation though a thought came to her mind since they're on the topic. "Here in Kalos, we have something kinda similar to a Pokémon Contest called a Pokémon Showcase and we Pokémon Performers are to create dance routines and movement sequences for our Pokémon and ourselves, as we have to show the audience how well coordinated we are together through our performances."
"Wow, that's pretty cool…" began May as she was becoming even more interested in learning about the Pokémon Showcases that Serena was talking about and maybe even tell Dawn about it as well as Solidad, not realizing that the bluenette-turned Hybrid was overhearing the whole conversation and was actually becoming interested at learning more about Pokémon Showcases and how different they were to Pokémon Contests.
"You bet, we also have to be able to use our Pokémon's capabilities and skills to our advantage, displaying our moves and characteristics in an entertaining way," Serena continued with her explanation on how Pokémon Showcases worked compared to the Pokémon contests from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh. "While it is similar to how you mentioned that Pokémon Coordinators show off their Pokémon in a Performance Stage of a Pokémon Contest, there is a twist that differs between Coordinators and Performers as we have to involve ourselves in the performance."
"Is that right?" May asked of the blonde with even more interest in her voice, part of her wished she hadn't become a sexy hybrid as otherwise had she learned about this it would've made her want to participate in the Pokémon Showcase and thought Dawn would've wanted to do so too. "If only we had that in Pokémon Contests."
"Trust me, it's no picnic as I learned that the hard way when I first started," Serena told her, not sounding happy over the fact she didn't do too well the first time around but as things progressed she started to get a little better. "I'm still new to the whole thing but I'm starting to show improvement from the first time at least."
"That's a relief then."
"Yeah, plus there are different themes used during the first round of a Pokémon Showcase, which means Performers have to excel in other activities as well, such as baking PokéPuffs and dressing up like their Pokémon with accessories. Of course they can also use Pokévision videos as a way to promote themselves for Pokémon Showcases," Serena continued once more, wanting to tell May about the best part of the whole Pokémon Showcase in general. "Pokémon Performers who win a Rookie Class tournament are awarded with a Princess Key and once they have collected at least three Princess Keys they can enter the Master Class tournament, where they can compete for the title of Kalos Queen."
"You know, had we not become hybrids then it would be something I could give a try since it could help me with future contests and I'm sure Dawn would love to do the same," said May with a light laugh, then a thought occurred to her almost immediately after bringing Dawn up. "Maybe even Ash as well, provided he dresses as a girl and doesn't get exposed as being a boy since it's a shame only females can participate in Pokémon Showcases although it would be good to see how he does dress as a girl." May added with a smirk now forming but that no longer mattered to her. "Doesn't matter really I like what I have become."
Serena had to agree with May as she was looking at her own body with glee in her eyes right now. "I know, but damn it all where is Ash I thought that he would have been back by now." Serena said with a huff.
May couldn't help but agree with what Serena was saying as she now gave a deep sigh at this. "I know I wish Ash would just let go so he can be free like us that he can mate with us." May said with a frown knowing Ash's human side was stopping this.
Serena nodded at this but knew other girls would want to be with Ash as well and could smell an new girl in the house as could May, for Serena it was unknown but to May she knew that it was her good friend Dawn.
Just then they two noticed Ash walk into the room his gaze was looking at the two hybrid girls while both May and Serena looked at Ash both smiling at this, as they thought that he had at last gave up and let his human mind go.
Seeing this May simple got out from the bed that she had been on as she rushed over to Ash pulling her soon to be mate into her arms, as however just returned the hug while stroking May's soft brown fur that she had, Ash could still smell the scent of the love making that May and Serena had just had not too long ago.
May knew what Ash could smell she could still smell it as well, so May just looked at Ash with a sexy smile on her muzzle. "Well since you're here Ash plus Serena and I are now fully rested how about you join us?" She said in a seductive tone of voice pushing her breasts into his chest as she continued to smile at her soon to be mate.
Without giving it a second thought Ash soon started to kiss May with a lot of passion which was something May enjoyed a lot and all May could do at this very moment was moan as she felt them failing down onto the bed behind them.
Ash just continued to kiss May both hybrids battling with their tongues before they both pulled away from each other now breathing deeply from the heavy kissing session that both Ash and May had just done and now they looked at each other with lust and desire. "Ash please, I want you to keep going I've waited for this since I became a hybrid." May said with a smile knowing what was to come if all went well.
"May..." Ash said as he looked at her seeing the smile that May had on her, which Ash couldn't resist the looks that May was giving him right now. Soon Ash's hands moved to May's breasts as he began to play with them causing her to moan with pleasure at what her lover/mate was doing.
"Yes more Ash!" Hearing this from May, Ash continued bringing his mouth to her right breasts and Ash began to suck on it, causing May to cry out even more than she did before.
Ash however soon blinked at what was going on knowing that this was not right, that this shouldn't happen nor should he be doing this right now. "No I need to fight this I have to..." Ash said as he pulled away and closed his eyes until he felt being hugged from behind and knew it was not May. "Ahhh! S-Serena you need to stop and fight it..."
"Why should I do that Ash?" The blonde giggled as she wrapped her arms around him as Serena continued to giggle at this knowing he was still fighting what was going on.
"But you two please listen it isn't right…we all shouldn't be like this!" Ash said looking at May who still had that same smile on her face which simple continued to look at Ash with a pleading look in her eyes. 2Come on May you must know that this is not right?"
"Why would I ever want to go back, Ash? This feels so good! I'm so much better than I was before! It feels so much better than a human after all right Serena!" May cried out with a smile and a giggle as she looked at Ash and then over to Serena who simply nodded at what the Eevee girl asked her.
"May's right Ash, this is a far better life that we now have," Serena said with a grin on her face as she felt the heat of desire burning inside her just like it was burning in side May. Neither hybrid girls wanted Ash to talk they just wanted him to fuck them both for Ash to make them his mate.
Saying this Serena moved forward as did May both seeing that he was erect right now and it made them both hungry and horny as well for Ash to make love to them both. Serena just moved over to May and grabbed hold of her breasts from behind and began to play with them as she used one free hand to move down her stomach and before stopping just above her pussy.
May just let out another moan as Serena moved her head to suck on May's breasts which caused the Eevee girl to moan more and more and what Serena was now doing to her and May just looked at Ash with glee in her eyes. "Ash, just let go and have fun with us." She said with a giddy voice her gaze not once leaving Ash.
"Ahhh…f-fuck…" Ash managed, the young man now too horny to resist the wet, dripping hole that both May and Serena offered him with the lewdest of expressions on their faces.
Ash just moved closer to the two with Serena now moving aside knowing she would have her turn for Now it would be Ash and May's turn to go first, the two soon fell down onto the bed and it only took a few seconds before his hard cock was pounding inside of May, both Ash and May letting out a series of loud moans as they began to mate. Ash grunted as he slammed within.
"Ahhh! Y-Yes!" May screamed she felt like she was in heaven as the boy she had loved for years hammered inside of her. His hands felt amazing as they started to play with her large breasts, the beauty orgasming rather quickly as Ash worked to please her.
"Cum inside me Ash! I-I want to have your child I want us to be mates!" May cried out, her love for the boy being perverted into something much more. And given how good Ash felt, the young man was in no position to refuse her. Within seconds he was shooting his load inside of her, both lovers moaning in pure delight.
Within seconds he was shooting his load inside of her, both lovers moaning in pure delight as both lightly bite each other's shoulder marking the other as their mate. "Ahhh…Ahh…" Ash moaned as he pulled out, a silly smile on his face. All thoughts of this being wrong had fled his mind, the young man happily aware that he had just ensured the continuation of a glorious new race.
May just smiled at this hoping that she had been impregnated by Ash as she knew that it was now Serena's turn to have some fun with Ash. She just watched as Ash moved off the bed and over to Serena and before the Fennekin girl knew it Ash was kissing her and grabbing her breasts, while May watched with a smile with one hand on her stomach hoping for the new life that would grow inside her.
Dawn meanwhile was down with Sherry in the kitchen both cooking some food to both get rid of the scent of sex that they could smell right now that was currently going on upstairs right now and Dawn was getting worried with fear that they could have lost Ash now.
Sherry however saw this as she placed her hand on Dawn shoulder doing all that she could to comfort her right now knowing that she was frightened. "Don't worry Ash will be okay it's just the smell that May and Serena are giving off and well it was bound to happen sooner or later really." Sherry said as she heard the moans coming from upstairs.
Nodding her head Dawn just looked at Sherry trying to get the thoughts of fear out of her head, after all she knew that it would do her no good at all right now and would just cause her more worry than she needed right now. "Yeah I just wish that this never happened is all." Dawn said with a frown on her face and looked over to Sherry.
Sherry nodded at this but knew that the one who had done this would have done this anyway Sherry just wished that that her new friends hadn't been infected by this. "I know I wish that this didn't happen either."
Dawn hearing this gave a sigh as she looked at her transformed hands and let out a sigh. "I guess this is just something that we need to get used to until a cure is hopefully found." Dawn added as she soon did her best to smile at Sherry.
Sherry however didn't return the smile as she looked at Dawn knowing that she needed to know. "Dawn even if a cure is found by the time its most likely made, we will have all lost our human minds and will not want to be changed back to being human." Sherry told Dawn as she still had a frown on her face.
"What…" Dawn said with shock as she looked to Sherry seeing her node her head at this and noticing the look that Sherry had. "Oh no, now what should we do?" Dawn asked hoping that Sherry would have some answers for her.
"I wish that I did Dawn I really do." Sherry said as she and Dawn heard more cries coming upstairs and even giggles as well. "Ash and the others are already mating." Sherry thought frowning more at this and then looked over at Dawn but remained silent.
Dawn had this same thought as well she just hopped that Ash would fight of this virus and come back as they didn't want to lose him as well.
Back upstairs Ash was still moaning as he pushed in and out of Serena one last time with both hybrids knowing endless delight, Serena however soon cried out as she felt her mate soon release his seed inside her causing Serena to cry out at this as she quickly collapsed with him on the bed, both panting as May smile at this.
"That was good Ash, soon Dawn and in time Misty shall join us I know I want her to join our family that we have now." May said with a smile hoping that Dawn would let go of being Human for their new lives, she just looked to Ash and saw that he was now sleeping which only caused her to smile at her mate.
Still having a smile on her face and seeing that Serena was sleeping as well May also decided that it was best to rest as she soon moved to Ash as she cuddled up to her mate and sister mate, all the while having a smile with thought on getting Misty to join them.
A/N well another chapter is done and Ash has made Serena and May his mates with more girls to join later on that I can tell you, but I know what you all want to know right now is does Ash still have his human mind and thinking straight and not like many other hybrids you ask?
Well that is something that many of you shall really need to wait until the next chapter since I don't want to give it away and I like to keep my readers guessing if Ash has lost his human mind or not so let me know in the reviews if you think Ash has joined the Hybrids or does he still have his human mind.
But yeah remember guys and girls this will not last mind you sooner or later the ones with human minds will fail just like Serena had done in the last chapter, but hey Dawn is now joined Ash and the gang which I hope you all like. Anyway I hope you all review, and sorry if no Sun or Moon girls show up they can show up in the sequel of this story guys if you want.
