Journey to Another World 4 Ch. 18 (From the author) Well everybody, I hope that you all had another great holiday. (If you believe in such that is.) If you remember a while back, I said that I would do a double posting for any holiday, but this time I'm going to do something a little different. This time I'm going to make this chapter twice as long, plus there is going to something special that's going to happen/said, later on in the chapter. I wont say what it is so you'll have to just bear with it and read through the chapter. Hope you enjoy and Happy Holidays. Not much else was talked about after the girls made their declaration of love to/about me. As I didn't know how much of that declaration Steven actually understood. 'Would he realize what the true meaning behind the girls words?' I thought but saw him laugh a few moments later. "Oh I get it. I've heard that a Gardevoir has such a strong bond with it's trainer that it will give up it's life to protect it's trainer." He then looked at the girls huddled around me, and gave them each a long glance. "And I guess that means the same thing for the rest of your Pokemon." He closed his eyes then nodded his head. "Well, actually..." Jenavee was saying until I reached up with my arm and gave her a big hug. "YOU GOT IT! I share a very deep bond with all my family." I answered for her, then looked up at Jenavee. 'I'm sorry Jenavee. I'd rather not talk to somebody that I don't truly trust with such a deep secret.' I said to her over the link. 'A deep secret?' She looked up from me to look over at Steven. 'He must be pretty dense if he does not understand what we truly meant when we said that we love you. Especially when both Rena and I kissed you on the cheek.' Then I looked up at her and could see an even deeper smile, almost mischievous, spread across her face as she looked down to me. 'Maybe we should give him a full view of what we mean. Would you not agree Rena.' Just then I turned and saw that Rena was giving me the same mischievous smile as Jenavee. ' Oh I was hoping that you would say something like that Jenavee.' And before I could say otherwise, both girls placed a hand under my chin, lifted my head to look strait up at them, then each kissed me full on the mouth. First it was Rena, who drew it out quite a bit, then not to be outdone it was Jenavee who slowly worked her tongue into my mouth to play with mine. Eventually she slowly pulled away from me then Rena and her caressed my cheek with a hand/paw. My head seemed to be up on cloud nine as I slowly looked back down to a very wide eyed Steven. 'It would seem that somebody enjoyed the show.' Jenavee said as she and Rena giggled at his expression. It was quite a few moment before Steven even blinked or anything. Finally he turned and recalled his Pokemon that were all looking at us as if we were insane, stood, and quickly walked over to his tent, and disappeared inside. It took my brain a few minutes to finally come back to reality with what had just transpired when those two minxes decided to mess with my life. I slowly turned up to tell them about the consequences of what they'd just done, but a surprising look of cuteness and innocence on their faces made all notion of that impossible. 'Damn it. Now how am I supposed to be angry at a person/s when they make that kind of a face?' (Author: Imagine a pouting puppy dog face and large anime eyes) Then for some unknown reason, I let out a long drawn out yawn. "Alright you little minx's. It's time for us to get some sleep." I told them, but couldn't get up as Kit was still laying in my lap and had been soundly asleep for quite a while. Though she'd been asleep for the show, she was quick to wake as I tried to ease her off my numb legs. She must have known what had happened and wanted to get in on the action as she quickly knocked me to the ground, gave me a full on tongue bath, then nuzzled the side of my face. After she was done with that, I half expected Undine to do something similar, but when I turned and looked at her she just laughed. "Do you really expect me to be fawning over you like all the others?" She asked rhetorically. Though, when she saw that I was about to answer her she quickly slapped her tail on the ground. "That was a rhetorical question. A goddess such as I..." At that point I couldn't help but laugh as I slowly pushed Kit off me. "It's going to be a while before I'm able to use these dead things." I said as I tried to rub the blood back into circulation and get the tingling to stop in my legs. Then as if knowing my handicap, Jenavee enveloped me with her psychic abilities and lifted/carried me back to our tent. All the while I couldn't stop thinking this as a reversed way for a husband to carry his new wife into their new home. 'Well, it certainly is not a home, but it will have to do. For now.' Jenavee said as I slowly passed through the fabric of the zipper door then gently placed down on my overly large sleeping bag. (Before we left the last town, I knew that I'd probably be sleeping with the girls out in the bush. So had decided on a bigger sleeping bag so that we could sleep together. After all, it would be nearly impossible to fit three people into one person sleeping bag. Let alone do anything else.) A moment later, all four girls came into the tent and I start cursing to myself. Though I'd bought a larger sleeping bag, I'd not given thought to buy a bigger tent. Three medium sized Pokemon and myself would have been fine within this tent, but with Undine's overly large body... You get the picture. No? Alright. Though I'd been the first to actually get into the tent. Both Rena and Jenavee were quick to follow. As they both were helping me to get ready for bed (Helping me with my shoes you pervert) I quickly ditched my shirt and belt. Once the three of us were snug within the sleeping bag, Kit made her grand entrance as she curled up at the foot of the sleeping bag (Not needing to get inside the sleeping bag as she was her own heater). Then finally Undine who proved to be to big, as the side of the tent went bulging outward. Amongst having the two girls snuggling up to either of my sides, Kit weighing down my legs again, and Undine on top of us all, I was beginning to suffocate. To rectify this, Rena pulled Undine's ball off my belt and quickly recalled her. I was about to say something to her when she placed a paw over my mouth. " I know what you are going to say, and quite frankly, I do not really care if Undine will be mad at me for recalling her." She waved her other paw around the interior of the tent. " After all. None of us would have slept very well with her massive body pressing down on all of us." Then said something under her breath that sounded like 'big tub of lard'. To which the other girls couldn't help but laugh at. Shortly after that, the four of us quickly fell asleep. It was about the middle of the night when I was suddenly awoken by a strange noise, though that wasn't the only reason I was fully awake. 'Man. It's boiling in here.' I thought as I started looking around the inside of the tent. All the girls were still asleep, Jenavee and Rena snuggled up tightly against either side of my body, while Kit was laying down on her back with her legs periodically kicking in the air with her tongue hanging out of her mouth. I was about to laugh at her strange sleeping position when I saw a few flames shoot out of her mouth when she exhaled. 'Well, I guess that explains why it's so warm in here.' 'Though it never fails.' I thought as I felt the familiar morning restroom call. Though this time, it was three times as hard to get untangled from the girls as they slept. "_ Donovin ?" I turned around and could see Rena rubbing at an eye sleepily. " What is going on? Mor...ning already ?" She asked as she yawned. 'I guess I failed.' I thought as I walked/crawled back over and gave her a small kiss in the middle of her forehead. "No it's not. I've just got to do something really quick." I said as quietly as I could. "I'll be back in a minute. So why don't you just go back to sleep." She gave me a sleepy grin then her head flopped back down onto the pillow. " **_Gladly." She said, then was back out light a light being turned back off. I stayed there for a few moments before I finally turned back to the door to the tent and was about to go out when I remembered the last time I went out camping how I'd gotten a thorn in my bare foot, so quickly slipped my shoes on. Once that was done, I quietly slipped out of the tent and looked outside. I was quite surprised to see that it was still dark outside and there was no sign of the sun rising any time soon. I looked down at my watch and hit the illuminate button due to the moonless night and just laughed. 'I'm probably going to have to recall Kit, if she keeps waking me up in the middle of the night.' My watch showed that a few hours had passed since we'd gone to sleep. 'Though she'd be great sleeping partner if we ever decide to go camping out in the winter time.' I thought as a few chuckles escaped my lips. Wondering a little further away from the camp, I stepped behind some trees and relieved myself. It was about this time that I noticed a few strange noises coming from back at camp. So zipping up I slowly made my way back, making sure not to trip over any rocks or protruding roots. When I arrived back at our camping site, I noticed that there were noises coming from both our tents. Since I was still in a sleepy daze, I couldn't exactly distinguish what was causing or what those sounds were exactly. So giving myself a firm pinch, I was fully awake. Now that I was fully awake I was able to recognize the sounds of moaning, which was coming from both our tents. Now, don't get me wrong. I would have loved to see what was making the girls moan like that in my tent, but my curiosity was drawing me over to Steven's tent to find out what was going on in there. 'I don't get it. When the girls were all fawning over me and giving me kisses, he seemed to be a little shocked. Could it be that he's in the same situation as I and got a little envious and wanted to get it on with one of his Pokemon as well?' Half smiling to myself in thinking that I'd blackmail the guy into leaving before he caught onto much more of my situation without battling him, I crept my way over to his tent. His tent was pretty much the same as mine. A white colored canvas made up the body with it's four posts that spread it out, red trim around every edge with a red rain guard that covered the top of the tent, and a circle for the door. 'I guess they try and make all the campers equipment like the colors of a Pokeball.' I thought as I crept closer. Once I was close enough to the tent, I began to circle it in hopes of finding a flap that wasn't fully closed or a window that wasn't zipped up all the way. Luck didn't seem to be on my side that night as all of the windows and door were zipped up tight. Getting a little frustrated now, I finally decided to sneak a peak through the mesh sky light. Moving my feet as close to the bottom of the tent as possible, I wiggled my head under the rain tarp and made my way up to the mesh top. 'God. I hope he doesn't see me.' I thought as I finally got to the upper portion of the tent. After a few more wiggles I was finally able to peek through the top of the tent, and what I saw definitely gave me a shock. 'It is true. Steven is a Pokephile.' I laughed to myself as I saw him lying naked on his back in a 69 position with his Buizel. While his Buizel was slowly bobbing it's head up and down on him, Steven was busy... Actually, I couldn't see what Steven was doing as the Buizel's twin tails were covering up his face. Though by the look of how furrowed his forehead was, he was definitely enjoying the attention as well as giving it to his Buizel. When I saw this I took a long sigh of relief. 'I guess all those girls around me must have opened him up to the idea of being with a Pokemon as well.' Though I didn't know if this was a first time thing for him or not. With that confirmation over with, I was about to sneak out from under the rain guard when I heard them start to speed up. "Oh god, Buzeli. That's it boy, keep it up. I'm almost there." He said as he went back to work on his Buizel. 'Boy?' I thought in confusion. 'Did I just hear him say that right?' Then laughed it off as a slip of the tongue due to pre orgasmic bliss. 'Steven is so going to get it when his Buizel 'Buzeli' realizes that it was just called a male.' "Bui Bui." It said as it let up for only a minute then went back to work on Steven's shaft. 'I guess there both...Oh god. I feel like such a peeping tom right now.' I thought as I quickly started to wiggle my way out from under the rain guard. Unfortunately, I must have wedged my head into it's current position in such a way that it was difficult to get out of without alerting the two to my presence. 'Just great. If I don't get out from under here, I'll probably be stuck for the whole show.' I wiggled for a bit longer until I could feel myself freed from my position, then stopped when I saw both Steven and his Buizel freeze up. I knew that I shouldn't be watching this, but for some reason I couldn't turn away, so I did the next best thing and closed my eyes. Though when I opened my eyes again, I could feel my dinner give a strong lurch in my stomach and I was hard pressed to keep it down. Now what Steven had said had made sense. His Buizel is a 'BOY', as the water weasel's tail had moved out of Steven face and it's member was sticking in Steven's mouth. I could see several strings of the weasel's seed sprayed over his face. Seeing that white stuff was the last straw for me, as I quickly jerked my head out from under the rain guard, quickly ran to the trees while holding my hands over my mouth, and proceeded to empty all it's contents from last nights dinner behind a tree. After my stomach was empty of everything (including the rest of the acid that lays at the bottom of your stomach) I heard the sound of a zipper being pulled and knew that I needed to hide. Quickly running deeper into the woods, I dived behind a bush and peaked out from under it. About 20 feet away stood Steven dressed only in a pair of sweat pants and his 'partner' Buzeli. Both were scanning the trees for sight of anything out here. "Damn peeping toms." Steven said. "Are you sure that that person ran this way Buzeli?" He asked as he looked down at his Pokemon. The Buizel looked up at him and nodded. "Alright. See if you can sniff him..." Just then the Buizel shook it's head, pinched it's nose then started backing away. "What's the matter Buzeli? Is something...oh god, what's that stench." He said as he quickly pinched his own nose and then started backing away while waving his other hand in front of his face. "Bui Bui." I looked from Steven to see that that Buzeli was pointing at the pile of vomit that I left near the trees where they stood. Just then the smell hit me too and I had to follow their example. When I looked back to the Buizel, my heart nearly stopped as he poked Steven in the leg then started pointing at my tent. Steven looked down at Buzeli then over to my tent, only to shake his head. "No Buzeli. I don't think that it could have been Donovin." He said as he took a few steps towards my tent. "As you can hear, their still going at it thanks to the attract potion that I slipped into their food last night. If they weren't, then we wouldn't have been able to have some 'us' time together." He laughed as he walked back over to the vomit and kicked some dirt over it. "Damn. Now that Buzeli's nose is all stuffed up with the smell of vomit. I doubt that he'll be able to track down whoever was spying on us." He said as he finished kicking dirt onto the pile. "Though, by the look of things. I'd bet that person got a pretty good shock from what we're doing and wont tell anyone about us." Then walked over and gave Buzeli a pat on the head. "Come on Buzeli. Lets get back to bed." And with a nod from Buzeli, the two went back to their tent and disappeared within. I don't know how long I waited there sitting behind that bush, but by the time that I'd decided to head back to camp, both our tents were quiet. Images of what Steven had done in his tent and what I'd missed out on in mine, kept flashing through my mind (though, more-so in his). 'I guess the attract potion that he fed us has finally worn off by now. Though I do have to wonder why it didn't affect me as it did the girls.' Then I remembered the vomit, and it all fell into place. The reason why Undine had wanted to sleep with me/us, the temperature coming off both Rena and Jenavee when I snuck out of the sleeping bag, and my erection. 'When I woke Rena up when I was trying to go to the bathroom, the Attract Potion must have kicked in.' I knelt down and grabbed the zipper to the door, but stopped. 'If that's true, then...' Images of Kit, Rena, and Jenavee all together in the throws of ecstasy started passing in front of my eyes. I couldn't hold it back anymore and was thrown back onto my back by my bloods nose rocket that launched me off my feet. Once the blood stopped flowing, my libido kicked in and I practically tore open the zipper door. The stench of sex was so strong right then that my erection was throbbing with need, though all was for not, as both Jenavee and Rena were lying within the sleeping bag, totally passed out. I had to see this for myself and quickly pulled down the zipper of the bag. Both were laying in a large pool of sexual fluids and had very content looks on their faces. 'Damn, and here I was thinking that I'd get lucky tonight with both my hot girls.' I though as I slowly shook my head. I really didn't have the heart to wake them up from such a pleasant slumber and slowly closed the bag back up. ' I'll probably have to go to the nearest Pokemon center to have that thing cleaned out. Otherwise I'll be smelling both their scents every night.' (Which probably wouldn't be to bad of thing unless I got tired of sporting a hard-on every night from the smell) That's when I started wondering where Kit was hiding. 'She couldn't have gotten far. I was practically watching the tent the whole time I was out there.' I thought as I turned and closed the tent's door flap. When I turned back to the girls I felt my foot come into contact with something and saw that my foot had come into contact with a stray Pokeball that was laying on the tents floor. I didn't really need to think about what a stray ball was doing out here, but thought about it anyways. 'When Rena awoke in her sexual state, she was probably afraid of sharing an intimate moment with her due to her fire like nature. So she recalled her and then proceeded to enjoy a good 'romp in the sleeping bag', with Jenavee.' 'God, blessed.' I cursed under my breath. I would have so much wanted to be with my two most favorite girls when something like that would have happened. Now, I didn't have the heart to wake them. So taking out my cloak that I used for my Renaissance cloths, I curled up underneath it and fell asleep. ----(Oh, you think I'd be that mean as to not tell you about what happened in the tent)---- (Switch perspectives to Rena's) After Donovin had given me that good night kiss, he left the tent to go do something. Once he was out of the tent I snuggled a little deeper into the sleeping bag and tried to go back to sleep. Unfortunately, for some reason I was starting to feel a little too warm. At first I thought that it was just my imagination, but when I opened my eyes I could see that Kit was actually spitting out small amounts of flame from her belly upped, sleeping position. 'Aw. Now isn't that just the cutest thing. She's even kicking her feet in the air.' Fearing for the safety of the tent, I quickly reached over to Donovin's belt, pulled off her ball, and recalled her to it. 'I will apologize for recalling her the next time Donovin releases her.' Once that was done, I snuggled back into the sleeping bag and closed my eyes, but I still couldn't fall back to sleep. Even though I'd recalled Kit, I was still feeling overly warm within the large bag. No matter what I tried I couldn't seem to get myself cooled off. That's when I started to notice that the heat was starting to become more concentrated between my legs. 'This is not possible. I should not be having another Heat for quite some time.' She thought. Though no matter what she tried, the feeling couldn't be ignored as the uncomfortable feeling began to grow warmer and warmer. Then just to check, she reached down between her legs and came felt her swollen lips and a little fluid that was leaking from there. 'Oh no.' She was about out of options when she finally turned to Jenavee and shrugged. 'Well, she is my sister. Maybe she has an idea on how to alleviate this.' Reaching on over she gently began to gently shake Jenavee's shoulder. 'She must be in a deep sleep. Sorry for this sis.' She though as she began to really shake her. She was awake in a second from the shaking. "What? Is something wrong Rena?" Just then Jenavee's nose started to twitch as she looked around the room. "I think Kit's heat is starting to flare up again. This tent practically reeks from her..." Just then she stopped and looked over at Rena as she had a guilty look on her face. "What is wrong Rena. Are you not feeling well?" I just didn't know how to bring this up with her. Every time my condition flared up like it is right now, there has been trouble. 'At least this way, she wont be angry with me trying to seek out Donovin to help me alleviate this.' " **Sis. I think I'm going into heat again." Jenavee just stared at her sister for quite a while, but couldn't believe what she had just told her, then started to giggle. "Oh come now Rena. You must be joking. There is no way that you could be heat, not in your condition. After all, were are in the same boat with how we are right now." "_ That is just it sis. I know what it feels like to be in heat, and I have the symptoms for being in heat as well ." I reached over and grabbed her hand and brought it in-between her legs. " See. It was like this the last time I went into heat ." I said as Jenavee took back her hand which was now coated in a small amount of my...stuff. "_Not to sound mean or anything, but why do you not take care of this yourself." Jenavee said which made me blush and look down in guilt. It was a moment later that I heard Jenavee take a long sigh then a quick giggle. "Oh I get it. You do not know how to...do you?" I just shook my head and could feel my cheeks on my face start to get warm out of embarrassment. ' I can not believe that I am asking Jenavee to help me with this. She is my sister a...and...' I could not think for that much longer as the heat was starting to get worse just thinking about it. "_ Please Jenavee. Do not tease me about this. I feel uncomfortable as it is, and if you do not know of a way to help me with this, I can always go and ask Donovin to help me ." I told her as a blush actually started to show on my muzzle. "_Now hold it right there, sister. I never said that I would not help you with this. It is just strange that you would actually think of asking help from me with this." Jenavee said as she looked at the door then back at her. "Though I am glad that you did not just jump on Donovin and have him help you." I took a long sigh but my eyes went wide when Jenavee's smile turned into a wicked grin. "Actually, I have a great idea." She paused for a moment. "With my psychic abilities, I just dug into Donovin's mind and have found some things that might help." She said as she scooted a little closer to me, then surprised me when she actually kissed me on the lips. To say the least, I was quite shocked when she did this, as Donovin had been the only person who had ever kissed me. Though do not get me wrong, Jenavee was a great kisser, but I preferred it when Donovin kisses me. I was shocked again when Jenavee placed her hand on my chest and started to rub and squeeze it. "I know that this is a first for you, Rena. Just try and bare with me, as this is my first time being with another female as well." Jenavee said to me as she continued to kiss me and massage my...of forget it, my breast. When Jenavee started to do this to me, it felt awkward, but as she went on I was starting to moan into our now shared kiss. 'Now I want you to do the same to me.' Jenavee said to me with her psychic powers. So taking a shaky paw, I reached over and started to mimic the same things to her that she was doing to me. Like her, I was a little clumsy at first, but was steadily gaining experience and began to make her moan as well after a short time. 'Donovin. You pervert. I can not believe you had such an idea in the back of your mind.' Jenavee said, but what she said she probably meant for it to be kept secret. I could feel myself quickly approaching my peak, but just as I was about to hit it, she stopped and helped me to sit up. I looked over my shoulder as she scooted around behind me and reached around to start massage my breast with her left hand and started reaching down with the other. I was even more shocked when her hand that was reaching down finally stopped between my legs, then started to rub there. I reached up and clamped my muzzle shut to keep myself from moaning out to loud. '_ Jenavee got this idea from within Donovin's mind .' I knew that if I was not moaning right at that moment that I would have been smirking. ' I wonder what other sort of things that Donovin's got stashed away in his dirty little mind of his. Oh Mew, that feels... ' I could not hold it in any longer and let out a long moan and shook all over as I came from her...I do not know what she did to me but it felt so wonderful. After I came back down from my orgasm, I looked over my shoulder and gave Jenavee a smirk. " Now it is time to return the favor ." This caught her off guard as I quickly turned her around and then proceeded to do the same. Jenavee must have been even more sensitive than I was, as even though she bit down on her hand to keep from moaning, she was twice as loud as I had been. Plus she hit her peak quite a bit quicker than I had as well, and was quite vocal about it. I had to silence her with a deep kiss just to stop her from waking the other human that was sleeping not six feet from us. The only thing I felt was a little jealous of Jenavee as she seemed more satisfied and stayed that way longer than I had. "_My god Rena. Who knew that you were such a great lover. Though I do have to know...mmm that tingles, I have to know if you are satisfied." Jenavee asked as I could see her still shivering a bit. "If not, then there are other things that we can do still." I could feel my cheeks start to warm up a bit more at what she said. "_ Actually... " I took a long sigh then a deep breath. " **_Actually...no. Though I am not feeling the overbearing intensity of it anymore, I am not fully relieved yet." This seemed to make Jenavee really happy as she slowly turned to face me and gave me another wicked smile. "I was hoping that you would say something like that. As there is another position that caught my attention in his mind." Jenavee said as she slowly pushed me down by my shoulders and then turned around and placed herself over my muzzle. "In his mind, this is called the 69 position. In this form, we both can pleasure each other at the same time, and both receive at the same time. Just follow my example as last time." Then gave me a wicked smile then lowered her head between my legs. What came next, sent shivers all up and down my spine. I could feel her tongue slowly lick up and down my entrance, almost pushing it in but refraining from it. '_ **She got this out of Donovin's mind? And here I was thinking that he is such a... _' I stopped thinking when Jenavee stopped licking and looked back at me. Getting the message, I slowly leaned up and started on her. Whereas Jenavee's tongue was short but wide, mine was very long and new that if I put it to her lower lips it would probably send her off the deep end. So mimicking.... 'God she knows how to...mmm' I shivered as Jenavee went over a very pleasurable spot. 'Does she think that I am going to let her one up me on this?' I thought as I brought my full tongue to bare and gave her a long lick and a little inside as well. This got Jenavee to arch her back and moan out as she shook from the micro orgasm that she had. After that, it became a good natured fight between the two of us as we fought to see how many times they could bring the other to orgasm, though it was Jenavee who lost to my overly large tongue. Finally, totally exhausted and relieved, we lay back in the sleeping bag and fell asleep. * * *

(Switch Perspective back)

• * * The next morning met with several different emotions. Both Rena and Jenavee were still in a state of fogged bliss as they looked over me at each other, I was not a morning person but worried about the situation between my girls and the aphrodisiac then the realization of what sexual preference Steven had, then Steven waking next to his partner with the worry of who'd spied on them during the night. So breakfast that morning between the five of us was spent mostly in silence, as we all had things on our minds. I couldn't stand for the whole silence any longer and set my bowl of oatmeal down and looked around. Both Jenavee and Rena had blushes on their cheeks and Steven and Buzeli ate with quiet concentration. "Alright. Enough of this silent stuff." I threw my bowl down, stood up, then pointed a finger down at Steven. "You've been waiting for this battle for a few days now, and I say, 'Why put something off when you can get it done today." I could see Steven had a look of shock on his face at my declaration, but he simply just set his bowl down and shook his head. "I don't think so." He said as he took a long sigh and looked over to his Buizel 'Buzeli'. He turned and gave me a smirk, "As it turns out, I can't wait to battle you anymore. As I've got pressing matters elsewhere that need my immediate attention." This came as such a shock to me that I lost my balance and fell onto my backside. (Which really hurt if you fall from such a height) Once I got my backside to stop hurting I finally looked up and saw that he was packing up his tent with the help from his Pokemon. 'What in the world? When did he call out his Pokemon and get started on breaking down his tent?' I watched for a little while longer, but when he'd finally finished, I stood back up and grabbed him by the shoulder. "For the last few days, you've been following me, hoping for a battle." I said as he just stood there and let me rant. "And now, just when I'm ready to go, you tell me that you've got something that's more important." Steven nodded to me. "Just like when you were recovering, I've got some recovering too." I gave him a questioning look. "Did something happen last night? Were you attacked?" His face instantly lit up in a bright blush and he smirked. "I guess you could say something like that, though I guess if you want to get down to the nit and gritty about it. I was attacking and being attacked by one of my Pokemon." He then placed a hand on my shoulder and patted it. "Just like you were attacked last night by those two Pokemon there." He nodded over my shoulder and I looked over at Jenavee and Rena who had their heads lowered and a blush could be seen on both their faces. 'Well, he really isn't shy on what he did with his Pokemon/lover/partner last night.' I thought, but then it hit. 'He doesn't know who had interrupted his time with Buzeli. Maybe that's the reason he's not going to battle me, he wants to find who spied on him.' "So where are you off to next?" I thought then asked him, as I wasn't going to admit that it was me who saw the relationship between him and his lover. "Not really sure. I know that after some training with my Pokemon, I'm going back to have another shot at Maylene and get that badge from her." He said as he hefted his backpack onto his back then gave me a thumbs up. "After that, I'll probably start looking for you again, and get that battle from you." He said as he turned with his Buizel by his side and started walking away. Deep down somewhere I knew that I couldn't leave our friendship off like this and ran up and stood before him. "What?" "Before you go, I've got an idea on how you can beat Maylene." I told him as I gave his Buizel a smile then looked up to see him smile. "She knows that you only have water type Pokemon and probably took advantage of that." "Thanks for pointing out the obvious reason that I lost that battle." He said as Buzeli growled at me. "Now hold on a minute. I'm trying to help." Buzeli stopped growling and Steven stopped scowling at me. "If she knows your weakness and you know what type of Pokemon she has, then use that against her." Steven's eyebrows slowly rose. "Use your Pokemon's natural abilities and freeze the floor." Steven's eyes shot open as he understood. "Have my Marill soak the field in water and have him use an Ice Beam to turn the floor into ice. That way her fighting types can't stand and will be slipping and sliding. While their doing that, I'll have my Pokemon attack." A smirk appeared on his face. "A very interesting tactic and one that I'm going to take full advantage of. Thanks." He said as he patted me on the shoulder once more then turned and walked away with Buzeli. 'Well, at least he's got an edge now. I just hope that he doesn't start off with that. Otherwise Maylene could use one of her Pokemon to break up the ice and use pieces of it as a throwing weapon.' I thought as I walked back to camp and saw that the girls were just now cleaning up things there. "Well girls, I think we've spent enough time here. So once we've packed up we need to head off towards the next town." I said as I looked down at my watch for the time and realized the date. December 24. "Holy crud. I can't believe that it's December the 24th." "What is it Donovin. Is their something special about that date?" Jenavee asked as I knelt down and collected the now clean bowls. "Not December the 24, but December the 25 is." I said as I placed the bowls into my pack and headed over to the tent to collect our things from within. "Where I come from, that day is very special. It's called Christmas." " What is this, Christmas, Donovin?" Rena asked, to which I just laughed. "Christmas is a very special time of the year when everyone gathers around the Christmas tree and gives each other presents. But it has a couple more deeper meanings than that." I said as both Rena and Jenavee looked at each other in confusion. "I guess...both you girls don't celebrate it here." To which they both slowly shook their heads. "That is alright Donovin. If you wish to celebrate a holiday from where you come from...which I have no idea where that is." She gave me a wink to say that she really did. "Then I am sure that we could participate in it." She turned and looked over at Rena to which she was nodding as well. "After all, we already have a gift from the both of us to give you." I was a little taken-aback by this but nodded to them. 'Maybe their going to...then we would...' I thought of what they'd probably done in the tent but quickly shook the idea out of my head before Jenavee could sneak in there and read what I was thinking as a warm shiver ran up my spine. 'No. I don't think things like that about those two.' I shook my head again to get those dirty thought out of there. 'Got to think of what to get my girls for Christmas.' So keeping my thought private, we finished packing, then continued down the road until we finally passed into a new part of the Sinnoh region. "Welcome to Pastoria City, gateway to Pastoria Great Marsh." I read as we passed through another checkpoint. "_ Donovin ." Rena said trying to get my attention as we exited the checkpoint. I turned to her and nodded. " On that sign it said, 'Great Marsh'. What is a marsh ?" I slowly turned to her and thought for a moment. 'Don't remember any marshes around where I live, but if I remember...' "A marsh is like a really big dried up lake. Though most of the water is gone, it still has water underneath the surface. The big problem with a marsh, is that it's very hard to get anything 'real' to grow or build there as most plants don't like that much water and buildings usually start to sink after a while." I told Rena who nodded at my definition as we all turned and headed into the small city. My first thought as we entered the small town (which it truly was), was the overwhelming stench of a dead plants and how muggy it was. 'From what my teacher said, it seems that there is indeed a marsh nearby. Though I am wondering if there are any mosquitoes, or Beedrill's that hang around this area.' I shuddered as I thought of a Beedrill that would swoop down and try and suck my blood. 'Something that size would definitely rake in a lot of money if it were put into a film.' I thought as I shuddered at the mental image again. "_I can not believe on how uncomfortable it feels around here." Jenavee said as she looked around fanning herself with her hand to try and cool herself off. "How long do you think we are going to stay here Donovin?" She asked as I stopped in front of the Pokemon center. "Probably not that long, as their really isn't that much to do here other than visit the marsh which has a lot of grass and water type Pokemon." I said as I turned and looked up to where the smell of the marsh was coming from. Thoughts of battles in the mud brought images of girls mud wrestling to mind, which got me to smirk. "Though we could try our hand at battling the local gym leader too." I turned back to the girls who shrugged. "_ You know, he is right. We have never actually taken on a gym leader before ." Rena said as she brought her paw up and tapped her muzzle with it, in thought. " It would be a good chance to see how our skills compare to those of a person who does it for a living ." Rena finished as she looked over to Jenavee. As if to ask her thoughts on the matter. "_Hmm. Maybe you are right Rena. Where it is true that we have never taken on a true challenge with the league itself. I would like to see how we stand up against someone like that." Jenavee said to Rena while turning to me and they both looked pleadingly at me. I couldn't help but laugh at that. "Alright, alright you two. I guess we could check out the gym while we're here." "_ So it is true...we are going to stay here for a while ." Rena said to which I nodded to her. "Maybe for a day or two." I told her as we started walking again, only to stop at the entrance to the Pokemon center. "After all." I said as we walked in only to stop again at the nurses desk to get a key from Joy. "I don't think that I'll be able to get you two anything for Christmas if we skip this town. That is until we reach Hearthome city again." With the key in hand I led the way up the stairs to the room that we'd spend the night in. Opening the door for the girls, I couldn't help but laugh as they both rushed in and quickly made a flying backwards leap onto the bed. "_Though, I do like camping out like we do sometimes. Nothing beats a nice comfy bed to sleep in at night." Jenavee said as she pulled a pillow over and hugged it to her. "_ A nice comfy bed at night, with the ones that you most care about ." Rena leaned up for a moment then gave me a wink. " Is definitely preferable over the cold, hard, unforgiving dirt ." Which was reiterated by the popping sound that I heard coming from her back. To which I couldn't help but laugh as I too had some pops left in my back that needed to let out. I reached out and pulled off Undine's and Kit's balls and looked at them. "I bet the others would probably like to come out as well." But when I said that I saw both the girls eyes quickly flash open in shock and both quickly rush on over and grab a ball away from me. "What?" Both the girls took a long look at each other then slowly turned to me. There was a long pause for quite a while as we just looked at each other. " I just thought of something ." Rena said as she looked over and nodded to Jenavee. " If we are going to celebrate this, 'Christmas' together. Then I think that we should let the other girls in on our gift that we are going to get you ." She turned to Jenavee. " Right, Jenavee ." Jenavee gave her a weird look but nodded anyways, then Rena turned back to me. "Plus there is something, 'private' that I want to talk to Kit and Undine about." She then turned me towards the door and started pushing my shoulders. " So why not go out and get the gifts that you said that you wanted to get _." She said as I was finally pushed out the door and into the hallway with the door quickly closing behind me. 'What was all that about?' I thought as I looked over my shoulder at the door but shrugged it off as I headed off to the local Pokemart. * * *

• * * "Now that was close. He almost released these two." Jenavee said as she took the other ball from Rena and set them down on the nightstand next to the bed. "_ No kidding ." Rena said as she sighed in relief. " With us...it was ok ." She motioned to Jenavee then back to herself. " I would hate to see what would happen if those two got together. Though I do have to wonder what brought on my heat when I should not have been going into it for a while ." Jenavee tapped her chin while looking at the ceiling with her eyes closed. She stayed like this for a little while until she looked down at Rena. "_Donovin is to far away for me to read his mind and find out if he knows what effected us. Though we do have to think about what we are going to do about Undine and Kit. We just can not leave them in their balls for an extended stay. Who knows how their going to react to that too." "_ You are definitely right. By the way Kit had scented Donovin, I would hate to think of what she would do in her current state ." Rena said as she paced the room, then stopped and shivered. " Just thinking about this is starting to make me afraid for Donovin. Lets talk about something else for a while. Do you think Donovin will like our combined 'gifts' to him? _" * * *

• * * I lifted the plastic bag up, opened it, and looked into the bag. There was four different colored packages, each color coordinated to the recipient of the gift. I looked at each of the four girls gifts that I'd bought for them and smiled. "Well, it would seem that they had some decent gifts in there. I just hope that the girls are going to like them, but that money was a little hard to give up. I guess we are going to have to go and battle against some trainers or go to the gym so that I can get some more money." I said to myself as I continued to walk towards the center. 'Though I do wonder what Rena and Jenavee were talking about when they said that they already had gifts for me, even when they really didn't know about Christmas before I told them about it?' My mind started drifting back to the night in the tent and crazy thoughts of what they did in their started flashing through my mind, but I stopped in my tracks and started to shake my head. 'Man, what's wrong with me. For the last few days, I can't seem to get my mind out of the gutter. I've got to think of more pleasant things.' So, I started thinking about how the girls faces would look when they opened their gifts. I arrived back at the center as the lights from the far off sun slowly started to fade behind Mt. Cornet. Before I headed to the stairs, I decided that it would be a good idea that I'd get something for everyone to eat. Taking a quick detour I headed into the dinner and grabbed a few different bags of Pokemon chow that were specific to different types and then headed up the stairs. The walk up the stairs was a long and seemingly endless one as thoughts of previous Christmas's with my family ran through my head. As I got to the middle of the stairs, thoughts of spending this Christmas with my family started to come into my mind. Each of them opening their gifts with the morning sun shinning in through the opened windows, their faces light up as each of the gifts were specifically designed to each of them, then a hug/or such for the gift, then the return gift for the gift that I gave them. 'I wonder what Jenavee and Rena's gifts will be. After all, they said that they both pretty much had the same gift to give me.' I stopped right as my hand wrapped around the door knob when I heard voices coming from the inside of the room. * * *

(Sorry about this next part. It's going to be kind of jumpy)

• * * "_ How do you think he will react to our gifts Jenavee ?" I heard Rena say. "_I can probably say that, without a doubt he will be surprised. Most males are, when they get the news. My mother said that my father was quite surprised when he was told the same thing." Jenavee said back. "My mother said that timing is everything, and with this 'Christmas' thing that Donovin has told us about. I think that it would be a perfect time to tell him." 'Something that would surprise a father? I wonder what that could...' I stopped in mid sentence as the girls started to speak again. "_ Though, when you really think about it. This gift is not just for Donovin, but us as well. I wonder what ours will look like ?" Rena asked "_That is a good question. Since Donovin is so tall, I would have to imagine that our would be pretty tall as well. Though I do hope that mine will be a strapping young male with his eyes. What about you?" "_ I hope that mine will be a female like me. Though I wish that she could have some of his features or maybe just his regular blue eyes ." A smile slowly spread across my face as I listened to them talking about what their kids would look like. 'Isn't that nice. Their planning on having children in the future. Well, I hope that...' The two large bags fell out of my right hand as I suddenly realized what they were truly talking about. " So how long do you think that it is going to take Donovin to realize that we are carrying his children ?" Rena said with a giggle. "_Not that much longer, I suspect." Jenavee said as she rubbed her hands over her lower stomach. "After all. I can already feel like I am starting to grow wider as we speak." Just then their was a loud banging sound that came for the outside of the door. Both girls quickly rushed to the door and quickly pulled it open. Donovin lay there, on the floor amongst several smaller bags that were strewn all around him. "I'm going to be a Daddy." He said, before passing out.
