"That one?"

"No."

"What about that one? Look at the muscles on him."

"No," she sighed. "Not one of them looks even remotely interesting. I think this was a waste of time, again."

"You're so picky, Gale. You'll never find a decent one like this. Oh well. There are still a few on their way. Maybe one will catch your eye."

"Doubtful."

The two of them watched from a one-way window high above the entrance of the mansion's foyer. Dozens of men and women alike all gathered inside of the spacious room. While some of them mingled and explored, the majority of them kept to themselves as they eyed their future competition.

Even as the room began to fill with more and more people, the volume stayed at a low murmur. There was an anxious tension in the air. No one was to be trusted. As on edge as everyone was, no one expected the voice to come over the intercom and break the relative silence.

"Good afternoon." The voice was clearly feminine, but it rang deep. "I'm glad you all could make it our first annual Martial Arts Tournament. Now I'm sure you know the rules by now so I'll make this brief. There are no divisions. The last man standing among you wins. You are to only use your own two hands for battle. No weapons. And there will be no killing...in the ring. Fight until your opponent is either unconscious or unable to fight back. Last and most important, have fun. You'll all be spending the next few days here so please enjoy yourselves."

As if on cue, doors at the far ends of the foyer burst opened and a number people flooded into the room. Men, women, human, and pokemon, casually dressed in various types of exotic clothing. Silken sashes, revealing dresses, and sleek suits.

"We start in two hours ladies and gentlemen. Until then, let our escorts take you to your rooms. They might be able to ease some tension before the festivities begin. One hundred-thousand dollars is on the line, and only one of you will have it. Good luck."

The foyer quickly emptied as the escorts lead everyone to their rooms. Some left on their own, content to explore by themselves. Those who went ahead found keys in every door. They removed their key, went inside, and locked the doors behind them. Some went directly to "easing their tension," others sat and waited, staring at their clock in anticipation.

As the last of the fighters left the foyer, the two figures left their perch and made for the exit.

"Look at them scurry away like insects. Lock the doors, Camille."

With the wave of her hand, the second figure locked every exterior exit. The tall doors at the foyer's entrance slowly began to shut, and as the two figures exited, one last entrant slipped through the cracks.

Aside from the errant bump or moan, the mansion was quiet. Those who were confident wandered the halls without worry, while most others stayed in their rooms. A number of people had already disappeared, chances were that no one would ever miss them among the many shady-looking individuals.

"Jeez, it's so tense around here." Being a latecomer, the young man was having trouble finding an empty room. Being blind wasn't particularly helping.

Though he couldn't see, he could still feel many sets of eyes watching him as he passed. He was certain they weren't very friendly either, but it didn't worry him. Readjusting his sunglasses, he showed no fear as he walked the long halls.

The two-hour wait seemed to fly by. Without warning, a different voice came over the intercom. "Evening, everyone. It's six o' clock. Time to begin. Follow the signs to the arena. We'll be starting shortly."

Before long, the hallways were flooded with combatants, all of them following wall-mounted signs labeled "Arena." Many had already found it and waited inside for the crowd to appear. It looked nothing like expected. There was no stage, no designated fighting area, just an empty room perhaps the size of a football field with polished wooden floors, tall windows in both sides, and ample amounts of lighting.

"Comfy." Somehow, the young man had found himself in the middle of the crowd. He was thankful that he wasn't claustrophobic but he couldn't help but constantly bump into people. He felt like a pinball being shoved around by those who were taller and much more muscular than he was, which it turned out was just about everyone. He knew it wouldn't be long before he bumped into the wrong person.

"Hey, watch it!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, sir." He pulled back quickly, having been pushed into one particularly large man. The man looked down, almost unsure of what he was seeing.

"I think you're in the wrong place, kid."

"Really? So this isn't the Martial Arts Tournament?"

The large man froze for a second before bursting into laughter. "So you're not lost, you're just stupid then. Do yourself a favor and get out of here before you get hurt."

"You should probably worry more about yourself. There are a lot of tough guys around here. Do you think you can beat them all?"

"Kid, I-"

At the last moment the intercom echoed through the room. The voice cleared its throat. "Once again, thank you all for coming. I'm glad to see you're all so eager. After all, there were two-hundred fifty six of you to begin with. Now there appear to be only two-hundred thirty. That's still just a few too many. Your first task: whittle the numbers down to around thirty two. I hope you haven't gotten too attached to your neighbor. Begin."

Everyone stood shocked and confused for a moment. But from the second the first punch was thrown, a riot began. Violence traveled like a wave across the crowd. Immediately people began falling to the ground as they were punched, kicked, or bitten.

"Oh I just love that part, don't you?" Camille looked over to find her friend not paying an ounce of attention to the chaos in the room below. "Oh come on, Gale. You used to love watching that. When did you get so down in the dumps?"

Gale sighed. "I don't think I'll ever find a replacement."

"That's what we're here for. Maybe if you'd actually take a look down there, you'd find one."

"Worthless trash. Every last one of them."

Camille groaned. "You know what? Fine. You mope, Ms. Picky. I'm gonna find a date tonight."

"Have fun with your insects."

The brawl went on for a time. In only a half an hour, the majority of the fighters had been beaten or left unconscious. The few who remained struggled to fight over numerous bodies covering the floor, but they adapted well. Those who could fought as long as they were able.

Gale had only taken the occasional glance at the action, just to see how things were progressing. If she weren't obligated to congratulate the survivors, she would have left long ago.

"Camille, quit swinging your tail in my face." She could feel the breeze from her friend's tail. It continued even after she was told to stop. "Camille." As she turned to look, Camille's face was glued to the glass, her tail swinging to and fro like an excited puppy. "Cammy!"

"Gale..." Her voice was full of awe. "Look."

Curious, she looked over Camille's shoulder, and instantly found what was so interesting. Among the small number of remaining combatants two young men stood out. Back to back they protected each other, repelling numerous attackers with single blows.

"Gale, look at the white-haired one. He's so...pretty! And the one with the sunglasses, look at how he moves. But that other guy, I just have to touch his hair! Mmmm," she shuddered. "I want that one. I want him. I want him. I want him! What do you think, Gale?"

Gale's eyes were fixated on the two young men. The situation seemed too good to be true. She wasn't ready to admit she was wrong just yet. "He almost looks like...how many are left?"

"Whoops um...sixteen, eighteen? It's hard to keep track. Those two down there knocked out half themselves."

"Stop the fight."

Immediately an air horn sounded from the intercom and all fighters froze. High above them a large glass window began to rise, revealing two figures. The first was easy to identify. A mewtwo, tall, curvy, and clothed in a form-fitting, yet revealing black dress. Her stomach and cleavage remained very much exposed.

The other figure was different. Few could point out what kind of pokemon she was, but the rest could tell just from her features. Her, grey and black coloring, the strange, golden bone-like protrusions reaching around her chest and waist, her two sets of arms. Few could guess what she was, but few had ever actually seen a giratina. Like the mewtwo, she had a thick figure and wore a similar dress. Though her large, golden protrusions were on top. It almost seemed like an outer ribcage, wrapping around her body and holding her large breasts in place.

"I'd like to congratulate you all." The giratina's powerful voice carried across the massive room with no trouble. "You've made it past the first round. I can see you're still raring to go, but please, take a rest. You've earned it. Food will be delivered to your rooms shortly. It should be enough to satisfy even the most...picky of eaters. We'll start here again at noon tomorrow. Don't be late."

Their adrenaline still pumping, some of the men found it difficult to stop, but surprisingly no sucker punches were thrown as the crowd moved toward the exit.

As they waited for things to clear, the two young men looked to one another. The blind man smiled. "Thank you for the help. It was getting crowded."

"No problem. You looked like you needed the help anyway. I didn't catch your name by the way, what with all the fighting and such."

"Kai, you?"

"Lee."

They shook hands, and with a smile they began to follow the end of the crowd toward the door. Only when an arm extended in front of them did they stop. It was the giratina and her partner. Shocked, Lee glanced up at the room they were occupying just moments ago. It was empty.

The giratina spoke with the utmost grace. "Good evening, you two, and congratulations" She extended her hand toward Lee, but as he went to take it, he flinched, almost wanting to pull away. Shaking it off, he grabbed her hand and shook.

"Thanks..." Lee pulled his hand back faster than he realized.

The giratina offered the same hand to Kai, but he was completely unwilling to grab it. Seeing his reluctance, the giratina chuckled and retracted her hand. "You're shy. It's alright then. You may call me Gale, and this is my partner Camille." The mewtwo waved briefly. "We've been watching you two closely."

"That's nice..." Lee said sarcastically under his breath.

"My partner and I believe one of you may win, and we find it tradition to introduce ourselves to the potential winners. We would just like to let you know that you have our support. Good luck. I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do."

Without another word, Gale turned and walked away. Once she was out of earshot, Kai let out the breath he had been holding the entire time.

Lee's hand was shaking. "I don't like her. I don't like her at all. Are you alright?"

"I've never felt something so evil in my life. That wasn't a pokemon. I don't know what it was..."

The two of them sat and stared at the two creatures as they disappeared through the doorway.

"So Gale? Was I right? He totally touched your hand. No one's been able to do that in ages without curling into a ball." Camille teased.

"Maybe this wasn't a waste of time after all." For the first time in a while, the night seemed long for Gale. She didn't sleep. She only waited.

The contestants were surprised to find nothing in the massive room later that night. Where the unconscious bodies of two-hundred men used to be, were pristine wooden floors, devoid of scratches, scuffs, or any of the blood from the day before. Instead, there was a large white circled painted in the middle of the floor. The circle nearly went to the edges of the room, but left ample space for people who wanted to stand around its edges. It was a simple setup, but effective.

Sitting at the far edge of the room in a fancy red chair that just didn't belong, Gale sat and waited for contestants to enter. One leg crossed over the other, she smiled as she spotted her two favorite entrants.

Intuitively, everyone seem to know to stand in front of her. Once she had confirmed that everyone was present, she chuckled under her breath. "Good morning, gentleman," she said noting that no women were left. "You may call me Gale. My partner Camille will be joining us shortly. The rules today are simple. Battles will be one-on-one, same knockout rules as before. You'll fight until four of you are left, and those four will finish later tonight. The ring is more a formality than anything, but please try to stay inside. Camille, if you'd please."

Right on cue, the floor began to rumble. Many of the men jumped out of the way as the ground beneath their feet began to shift. Around the ring, the floor cracked and fell into a deep-looking abyss. A circular pit now surrounded the ring.

"Formality or not, it's probably not in your best interest fall down. Camille, the board."

"Keep your skirt on."

Everyone turned to find the mewtwo standing in the same elevated room as the day before. She snapped her finger and a massive sheet of paper rolled down the wall, revealing a tournament bracket. Along its bottom were the names of everyone in the room along with crudely drawn representations of their faces. Lee was amused at the high amount of detail that went into his.

"I spent a good hour drawing all this up. Be grateful. Now, will the first two contestants..Luther and...Zhe...Zhan...you know your name. Just get in the ring."

They could see their names quite clearly from across the room. The two men - one musclar blonde, one Asian-looking - hopped into the ring.

"Begin whenever." Gale seemed very disinterested. Even as the two men rushed each other and clashed fists, she stared into space. The other men watched the fight closely, sizing up their competition, but Kai sat cross-legged blocking out all unwanted sounds. Lee, apathetic toward the two current contestants, looked to the board. While he was on one end, Kai was on the other. Assuming they won all their battles, they would only get to fight at the end. He had the feeling that was intentional.

It had been only a minute or so when Lee heard a scream. He turned at the last second, to see the blonde man falling down the hole. "Damn, that was fast..."

"Winner...Ze...the Asian guy. Seriously, how do you pronounce that?" Camille announced from across the room. Everyone gave a courtesy clap, but it didn't last long as they quickly looked back to the board. With a wave of her hand, Camille wiped the man's name and face from the bracket.

"Jeez, I hope this whole tournament isn't this quick," Lee commented as he turned to Kai. He found the blind boy in the same position as before. "What are you doing anyway?"

"Shh, I'm trying to...that woman, that...thing. Her presence, it's overwhelming. It's like she's everywhere at once."

Looking over, Lee could see Gale's red and black eyes staring at the two of them. He liked her less every time he saw her.

"Let's keep it moving," Camille announced. "Next up is Gunther and, ooh Lee!"

Scoffing, Lee jumped into the ring where his opponent was already waiting. The man was practically a giant, and had muscles to match. Both Gale and Camille suddenly became interested in the fighting. No matter what happened, it was sure to be an interesting fight. Lee stood with his hands in his pockets, half paying attention to the snarling man in front of him.

Camille was so distracted, she almost forgot to start the fight. "Oh right, Begin!"

Immediately the man charged, his gigantic feet causing the ground to rumble at each step. Lee sighed. He rolled his eyes, and the moment the man grabbed on to Lee's head, a loud crash echoed through the room. Everyone's eyes went wide as the ring went silent. The giant man had seemingly froze in his tracks. Slowly he fell to ground, gripping his stomach and gasping for air. Lee walked away without another word. Gunther reached forward one last time, but within seconds he fell to the ground, completely unconscious.

"We have a winner!" Camille could barely contain her excitement. Once again her tail wildly swung back and forth as she stared at Lee. "Soon, hotness. Soon." The man's face disappeared from the bracket soon afterwards. "Next two fighters, you know who you are!" The next two men hesitated to step into the ring, noticing the man still lying in the center.

"Must I do everything," Gale sighed. With the wave of her hand, the man's body flew forward into the pit. "Get on with it."

Shrugging, the two men hopped into the ring, neither hesitating to attack. Lee watched only for a second before looking the other way. Kai hadn't moved an inch. He sat cross-legged, his brows furrowed, and a serious look on his face. "I can't focus with her staring at me like that."

"Who?"

"Behind you."

Lee took a quick glance backwards, finding Gale staring at the two of them. He couldn't look long. Her black and red eyes made him shake. "Ugh," he shivered. "I see what you mean,"

"The other one is staring at us too."

Lee took another look toward the room above the arena. As he expected, the mewtwo was looking his way. "I'm not even gonna ask how you know that."

"Are you kidding? I can feel it. It's like their standing right behind me, breathing down my neck. I'm beginning to think this tournament isn't worth it."

"I think you're right..."

The two of them stayed close as the rest of the matches progressed. They could barely pay attention to the fights as they tried to stave off the looming sense of dread in the air.

"Winner, Samuel!"

The man hopped across the pit and once again, everyone's attention turned to the bracket. There was only one match left in the first round.

"Kai and Kent! Will the last two contestants step into the ring!"

For the first time since they entered the room, Kai rose to his feet. Still looking as serious as ever, he made a short hop into the ring to face his opponent. The man didn't look much older than Kai, but he looked twice as serious.

Gale's smile grew even wider than before. Though he couldn't see, it made Kai's hairs stand on end.

"Begin!"

The man dashed forward at lightning speed. He surprised everyone with just how fast he could move, but Kai remained motionless. The man extended his fist, sending it directly toward Kai's face. It was only an inch away when Kai seemingly disappeared. With nothing slowing him down, the man found himself flying forward into the pit. He tried desperately to stop himself, but there was nothing he could do. He stared wide-eyed into the pit as he waited for the inevitable drop. He was baffled when it took much longer than expected. Only after a few seconds of staring did he realize he wasn't falling. He looked back to see Kai's hand holding on to his shirt. The man was suddenly thrown back into the ring.

He panted hard, his heart beating out of control. Kai sighed, just barely having saved the man. "Phew, that could have been dangerous. I've seen a few too many people fall down that pit today. I'm not really in the mood to fight anymore, so I think I'll just forfeit."

The man was more baffled than before. But he wasn't complaining. He went to stand but an invisible force hit him in the side, causing him to fly into the pit. Everyone with a keen eye immediately found the source of the attack, Gale, her hand outstretched. "Kai is the winner, by technical ring out. There are no forfeits, gentlemen. Now, the first round is over. All of you take a rest. We begin again in an hour."

Kai gritted his teeth at the heartless display. Now he was certain he no longer wanted to stick around. He hopped across the pit, landing directly in front of Lee. "I'm leaving. Are you coming?"

"Right behind you. This place creeps me right the hell out." Not a moment after Lee stepped toward the door, did Camille appear in front of him. Almost immediately she forced him against the wall.

Kai, hearing the thud, stopped to help, but Lee shooed him away. "I'll catch up." Somewhat hesitant, Kai turned and left, leaving Lee alone with the excitable mewtwo. "Can I help you, Miss?"

Camille giggled. "You sure can. I just wanted to let you know something first. Gale thinks your friend's gonna win, but me, I'm rooting for you."

"Thanks..."

"We've got a whole hour to spare. I was thinking that I'd take you upstairs and show you around my room a bit."

"Yyyeah, thanks but no thanks." He went to push her away, but in a split second, Camille's hand was around his neck.

"I'm sorry. I guess I wasn't clear enough. What I meant was, I'm going to fuck you." She smiled wide, and for the first time, Lee got a unhindered view of her teeth. All of them looked as sharp as knives. "And there's not a damn thing you can do about it." Her grip around his neck tightened as she leaned in and laid her head on his shoulder. She grabbed a handful of his hair and gave it a long, loud sniff, shuddering as she exhaled. "You smell wonderful, but I wonder how you taste," she whispered in his ear.

As she pulled back, Lee could her eyes glowing a bright red, and as she opened her mouth and unnaturally large tongue emerged. It was long and slender, like a thin, pink snake. Lee could only turn his head as Camille dragged it up and down the side of his face. She licked her lips before sliding her abnormal tongue back into her mouth. "Mmm, I'm love the young ones. You're like a designer cake, almost too beautiful to eat, almost."

"Camille, what did I tell you?" Camille froze. That was the last voice she wanted to hear. Before she knew it, Gale was right beside her, the giratina's black and red eyes glowing brighter than usual.

"I...was just-"

"Letting him go? Yes you were." Camille retracted her tongue, and with great reluctance, released Lee's neck. He jumped away as quick as he could, not wanting to be so close to either of the two pokemon. "Pardon my partner. I screwed up when initiating her. She hasn't hurt you, has she?" As Gale took a step closer, Lee instinctively took a step back. Scoffing, he walked away, making a wide arc around the two women. Try as he might, he couldn't help but make a dash for the door.

"Look at him, Gale. He's so cute when he tries not to act scared." Without warning Gale smacked Camille, nearly causing the mewtwo to fall over. "Ow, jeez."

"If you ever disobey my orders again, I'll rip your tail off and throw it to the demons. The ritual is tonight, and you will wait like everyone else. Understood?"

"Yeah, yeah..."

"I didn't quite catch that."

"Yes, Gale."

Lee rushed to catch up with Kai. He found the blind boy in the foyer, examining the front door. Before Lee had even stopped Kai could feel how on-edge he was. "Are you alright?"

"No. I finally see what you mean about those two...things though. You can feel it at a distance, can't you?"

"Unfortunately."

"How are you not scared out of your mind? Just being close to either of them makes my stomach sink."

"I AM scared. That's why I'm getting out of here. Who wouldn't be scared of those things. They're not human, pokemon, or ghosts. Whatever they are, I'm not sticking around to a part of whatever they have planned."

"Damn right.."

Kai huffed. "I can't see. Is there something I'm missing about this door?"

"Nothing. You're missing nothing." There was nothing on the door to be seen. No handles, keyholes, small windows, or imperfections. A quick tap showed that it was also solid as well. There was no getting through it. "We're gonna have to find another way."

"Gentlemen, are you trying to go somewhere?" Lee was only slightly relieved to hear that it wasn't Gale or Camille. Looking back, he found it was one of the mansion's many pokemon whores: a gardevoir dressed in a short skirt instead of a dress, and a blaziken in a fairly revealing silken robe.

"Oh, no, we're just..." Lee struggled to find what to say. "Admiring your...door."

The blaziken tilted her head. "Oh, how very silly. Perhaps we should escort you to your rooms. There we can better ease the tension of battle." Lee would have known what she meant even if she hadn't accentuated her words with a hint of lust.

"...Nah, I'm good. Are you good, Kai? Yeah we're good. You can uh, go away now."

"You misunderstand. Go back to your rooms. Now."

A chill ran down Kai's spine, and Lee's hair stood on end. The two pokemon's eyes glowed red, just like Gale and Camille's. Somewhat reluctantly, Kai and Lee stepped around the two women and made their way to their upstairs.

The both of them found their way into Kai's room and slammed the door.

"Yep, I'm done." Lee grabbed a chair and immediately headed for the window. He tossed the chair with all his might, but it bounced off of the window without leaving a scratch. Determined, he began kicking the glass with all his might. It didn't crack, or even budge in the slightest. "What the hell is this made out of?" He kicked harder and harder every second, but his persistence earned him nothing. He wound up for one last kick, but before he could unleash it, he stopped in his tracks. Looking in through the window was a familiar mewtwo. She smiled as she floated just inches from the glass.

"Going somewhere?"

Gritting his teeth, Lee closed the blinds in hurry and rushed to the door. Upon opening it, he was greeted by the very same mewtwo. "I'm sorry, but Gale doesn't want you two walking around the mansion anymore. You'll have to stay here until the next round."

Lee growled as he tried to slam the door in Camille's face. But her eyes shined red once again and the door refused to shut. "Good luck, Lee. I'll be waiting for you," she said with a sinister smile. Lee finally managed to close the door. He could still hear Camille laughing her way down the hall.

"Calm down, Lee. We're stuck." Kai had long since been calm. He sat cross-legged on the bed, without moving a muscle.

"What do you suppose we do then, huh?"

"What can we do? We play their little game and we wait for an opportunity to escape. There's no other way we're getting out of here now."

Sighing, Lee plopped down in front of the door. He mumbled and complained to himself for the next hour.

When the time came, there was a knock at the door, causing Lee to jump every so slightly. He was hesitant, but he gathered his strength and opened it. Outside were several pokemon women, lopunny, gardevoir, rapidash, and more, all of them more formally dressed than before. Their dresses were similar to those that Gale and Camillie wore, but much tighter. "Gentlemen, we're here to escort you to the ring."

Lee scoffed. "We get escorts this time...fancy."

Both Gale and Camille smiled as they saw their two favorite contestants enter. The rest of the men were already there, though all of them were surprised to the see the circular pit from before had disappeared. Even more off putting was the presence of a crowd. The numerous escorts were lining the walls and filling nearly half the room. They all whispered and giggled among one another as they eyed the few remaining fighters in the tournament.

"Congratulations. Out of two-hundred fifty-six, you eight have survived. That in itself deserves praise. But enough of that. We're getting close now. In this round, we'll narrow it down to two, and those two will finish later tonight."

Both Kai and Lee were becoming suspicious. "Kai," Lee whispered. "Does this tournament seem kind of...unprofessional to you?"

"What was your first clue, the giant pit in the floor, the half-naked pokemon everywhere, or the two-hundred fifty-six man battle royale?"

"Well yeah, I know it's shady, but I've been to shadier tournaments than this and they at least seem professional. This is just...I don't know, it just feels like it was thrown together at the last minute. Like what point is there to so many breaks in between rounds? It's like they're trying to waste time or something."

"That might be it. They're waiting for something. Plus, all the pokemon and amenities. I think they're trying to keep us here. Well, more accurately, it looks like they're trying to keep us from wanting to escape."

"Knew I should have stayed home today..."

Camille cleared her throat before making the announcement. "The first two fighters this round are Lee and...the asian guy."

"My name is Zhang!"

"Shut up and get in the ring!" Growling, Zhang took his place in the white circle. Lee was already waiting. "Give him hell, Lee. Begin!"

"Fuck off..." Lee said under his breath.

Having sees Lee fight before, Zhang was hesitant to charge. He inched his way forward, keeping his hands up, and his feet flat on the ground. Lee paid little attention. He found himself looking around the room for some sort of exit, but soon found there was nothing of the sort.

Suddenly Zhang lunged forward, thrusting his fist toward Lee's face. Still turned the other way, Lee narrowly dodged, spinning around Zhang's side and kicking his feet from beneath him. Zhang hung in the air momentarily before falling to his back.

"Do me a favor." Zhang opened his eyes to see Lee bending over him. "Stay down. You're going down in the next hit anyway. Just save yourself some pain and give up."

"Never!" Zhang rolled to the edge of the ring and hopped to his feet once again. He dashed forward and jumped into a flying kick.

"Why do they always charge?" Lee sighed. Out the corner of his eye, he spotted Gale and Camille and hatched an idea. He cranked his foot back, and the moment Zhang was in range, he was kicked out of the air. His limp body flew directly toward Gale, but she didn't flinch. Like a magnet of equal attraction, Zhang's body was repelled. It flew up and over Gale's seat, landing somewhere in the crowd of escorts.

"Whoops. Sorry about that. Guess I need to work on my aim." He huffed as he left the ring.

"Winner, Lee!" The crowd applauded and Camille chuckled. "I think he just he tried to kill us, Gale. I didn't think it was possible, but I think I want him even more now."

"Don't take that one too lightly. He acts very quickly. If you aren't careful..."

"Quit worrying. He's not gonna get away from me."

"I'm not so sure."

The next two rounds felt inconsequential. While Kai spent them meditating, Lee stared at the two head pokemon. They spent a great deal of time staring back. It made Lee anxious, but he kept his cool as best he could.

"Winner, Denton!" A pair of pokemon carried the unconscious loser's body out of the arena. "Round four. Kai and Red."

Kai didn't hesitate to stand and take his place in the ring. Across from him was an average-looking man, average height, dull brown hair, fairly muscular. Lee was shocked someone so 'normal' could make it so far. Only then did he realize he should have been paying attention to the fights. There was no telling what this man could do.

The man bounced in place until Camille gave the command. "Go!" In a split second, the man disappeared and reappeared in front of Kai. Everyone seemed shocked at his speed, except for Kai himself. As the man threw threw a flurry of punches, Kai dodged them all more trouble than expected. The man pushed forward, forcing Kai backwards fast. With little space to move, Kai ducked under the assault of punches and drove his fist into the man's stomach. He reeled back, clenching his gut with both hands, but before he could recover, Kai delivered a powerful uppercut to the man's jaw. He flew backwards, landing just inside the ring with a loud thud.

Kai sighed. "Well that was different..."

There was a long silence. The crowd watched Red intently, wondering if he would stand again. But Lee could already tell. "Just two punches. Damn he hits hard."

After a minute of silence, it was apparent that Red wouldn't be moving. "Welp," Camille started. "Looks like we have winn-"

"Wait!" Gale interrupted. "Who's his next opponent?"

"Uuuh, Denton."

"Bring him out now."

"But...the tournament-"

"I said now." There was a wide grin on Gale's face. She couldn't help but feel excited as she stared at Kai.

"Oh...kay. Next fight, Kai and Denton..."

There were murmurs among the crowd as Denton stepped back into the ring. While not a giant, he was most certainly big. His big, black overcoat made him seem even larger.

"Begin!"

Unlike most others, the man didn't charge. He walked forward seemingly fearless. Even when the man was a foot in front of him, Kai didn't move an inch.

"I'm sorry." As big as Denton was, his deep voice seemed very fitting. "I can't take it easy on you just because you're young."

"Wouldn't have it any other way."

Denton smiled. He raised his fist in the air, and with a loud grunt, thrust it at Kai. In a flash, he was flying backwards, a loud crack echoing through the room as Kai's fist connected with his jaw. He hit the ground and lay there motionless, much to Gale's delight.

"Ow..." Kai whispered as she shook his hand. "Hard face." As he went to turn, he froze as heard chuckling. A quick glance showed that his opponent was still out cold. He turned to Gale to find her grinning wide. It was off putting to say the least. Kai felt even more uncomfortable as her chuckle turned into a laugh. It sent chills down his spine.

"Wonderful," she managed to say through her laughs. "Absolutely wonderful. You were right Camille, I love this one. He's so...unique." As she stood, her chair seemed to disintegrate into black dust and disappear. "I've found what I was looking for. This 'tournament' is over." The remaining contestants shouted and complained, but Gale ignored them. "Take them away, girls, but don't don't touch them until tonight."

Before the men could react, the many pokemon surrounded them, all of them with hungry looks in their glowing red eyes. They stood no chance. They were grabbed and hauled out of the room, leaving only Kai and Lee.

"Congratulations. I can't believe it. After six-hundred years and no luck, two decent men find their way to me. What a wonderful day."

"You just love hearing yourself talk, don't you?" Lee retorted.

"Well, one and a half decent men."

"That's cold."

"Thank the depths we can finally stop this farce. Cammy, hold them until tonight. I'm going to prepare. And DON'T do anything yet. Don't even touch them. You know how you get." With the snap of her fingers, Gale disappeared in a black flash.

"Alright, you two," Cammy announced with a smile. "Get over here. It's time for a group hug! We're all gonna be family now." She opened her arms as if expecting a hug, but neither Kai nor Lee moved an inch. They looked at each, wondering if the mewtwo was as insane as they thought.

When a minute passed and nothing happened, Camille growled. With a wave of her finger, she pulled Kai and Lee into her arms. In a split second, all of them were teleported to an unfamiliar room. It was jarring to say the least. As far as they could see, it looked fancy, but dated. Hardwood floors and furniture, old Victorian-style windows, and candles in shiny, golden wall mounts. Kai was only able to look for a moment before being shoved to the floor. Camille then wrapped her arms around Lee, pulling him closer than he liked.

"You know, I'm sorry about that whole 'fucking you' thing. I have this condition, you know? I just get kind of crazy sometimes. I promise I'll treat you better from now on." Lee wasn't entirely convinced. He struggled to pull away, but Camille's grip was strong.

"What the hell do you want with us?"

"Companionship, of course. Well I don't know about Gale, but I do. Someone to love and share my time with, someone who's got some stamina, if you know what I mean. Also I love your hair, by the way."

"Ever heard of something called the internet? Bet you could of found a date in ten seconds there, instead wasting all this time and effort putting together a bullshit tournament."

The interwhat now? Oh whatever. It's alright if you don't understand. You don't really have to yet." Camille smiled as she ran her hands up and down Lee's back. "Gale is so uptight, but you and I, we're going to be close friends...really close friends."

"Speaking of Gale, back the hell up. You're not supposed to be touching me, remember?"

Camille frowned. "Always resistant at first." She sighed. "Waited a few centuries already. I can wait until midnight." She patted Lee on the back as she walked around him. Folding her arms, she sat on the edge of the large, circular bed.

Kai dusted himself off as he stood up. "Well this is a mess."

"So what now?"

Noticing how close Camille was listening, Kai waved Lee over. They kept their voices low as they talked in the corner. "I don't know. I didn't anticipate...this."

"I doubt they'd be stupid enough to leave the door unlocked, and I don't know about you, but I have problems taking on psychics hand-to-hand."

"Quite the conundrum, isn't it?" Kai folded his arms as he leaned against the wall. "Maybe...maybe they are that stupid."

"Hmm?"

"I may have a plan. I don't know if you're going to like it though."

"If it gets us both out of here in one piece then it's fine by me."

"Then here's what we do..."

Camille watched for minutes as Kai and Lee whispered in the corner. Whatever plan they were potentially hatching, she was confident that she could stop it. But she was intrigued as to what they would try. She had seen some weird ones over the centuries.

"...alright, Kai. But I'm telling you, I'm no good at this sort of thing."

"You don't have to be. If I'm right, it'll work great."

"If you're right..."

So as not to raise anymore suspicion, the two of them went to opposite sides of the room. Kai sat cross-legged as always, and Lee found himself a chair. The two of them remained silent as time went by. While Kai didn't move an inch, Lee found his vision darting between Camille and the the grandfather clock on the adjacent wall. He sighed and groaned out loud, his foot bouncing with anticipation. It was amazing how slow time seemed to be going. Only an hour had passed before Lee succumbed to the boredom.

"Yep, bored," he announced out loud. "You, whatsyerface, tell me more." Camille simply raised an eyebrow. "You know, about all this companionship crap, and what are you planning anyway? I think we have a right to know if we're gonna be part of it."

"That's funny. You don't strike me as the type of person who would care. Why do you want to know so suddenly?"

"Because I'm bored and I swear if I have to spend another minute staring at that fucking clock, I'm gonna break it. How long do we have to wait here, anyway?" He groaned. "I think I might break that clock just for the fun of it."

"Hmm. I get the distinct impression that your lying through your teeth." She was smarter than anticipated, but it didn't change things much. "...but I suppose there's no harm is sharing this with you. It might sound just a little crazy, but we're going to perform an ancient ritual that invokes the power of millennia-old demons."

"Sounds idiotic."

"You wanted to hear it. I'm only telling it how it is. Is it so hard to believe after what you've seen?" Her eye's glowed bright as she spoke. "Gale and I performed this ritual long ago back when we were still...well as normal as it gets. Now, we don't age, we don't die. Be grateful, we're giving you two the same privilege, sort of."

"And what does that mean?"

"Well, it gets weaker the more it's done. Gale is pretty strong, but weaker than the person who initiated her. And I'm weaker than Gale, seeing as she initiated me. You two will be even weaker, which works perfectly. If for some reason you try to escape, you wont be nearly strong enough overpower either of us. But you shouldn't; nothing really changes. You're still you after the ritual is done, just kind of immortal, oh and sunlight kinda hurts too. Oh and there's this strange need to obey your new master's every command. It's kinda weird at first, but you get used to it."

"Gee, when you put it that way, you make it sound like slavery."

"Oh no. Well I don't know about Gale, but I wasn't lying what I said we'd be best friends. We're gonna have a lot of fun together. And it looks to me like already looking forward to it." Camille smiled as she noticed the way Lee was looking at her partially exposed chest.

"Darn, and I was hoping you wouldn't notice," he said sarcastically as he continued to stare into her cleavage. She really did have quite a large pair of breasts, and her hips were shapely to say the least. The way her dressed hugged her curves made her seem that much more appealing.

"There's a lot more we can do than give immortality, you know. It's a small feat to enhance a few assets." Camille licked her lips as she watched Lee's gaze travel up and down her body. She spared Kai only a glance to make sure he hadn't moved before turning back to Lee. Her eye's glowed bright. "We've got plenty of time, you know. We could..."

"...I dunno. Wouldn't want to piss off your friend."

"Don't worry about Gale. She doesn't have to know, just...come over here."

"Tempting, but it's kind of dangerous. She could come back at any moment. You've seen the way she just pops in and out."

"DON'T...don't worry about it. I promise it'll be fine. Just come over here, please..."

Lee smiled inwardly at almost desperate tone of her voice. Glancing over his shoulder, he made sure things were safe before standing and walking toward the bed. Camille's smile grew wide. It took all she had not to wrap her arms around him as he sat next to her. "I'm not supposed to touch you but that doesn't mean you can't touch me."

"I guess Gale should have been more specific." Lee wrapped his arm around Camille's side. He could feel her heart beating faster as he rubbed his hands across her hips. He kept his face mere inches away from hers, deliberately teasing her as he knew she couldn't go against Gale's orders. Her muscles clenched as Lee rubbed his hand along her thigh. Camille's mouth hung open, her hot breath permeating Lee's face as she panted. She was even easier than Lee thought she would be.

Without warning, he straddled her hips and pinned her to the bed. His face was even closer than before. "Please," she panted.

Lee smirked. He ran his hand along her face before pressing his lips hers. Camille struggled to hold herself back, but despite her best efforts, she couldn't help but wrap her arms and legs around Lee's body.

Smiling to himself, Kai made his way to the door. It was unlocked. Just as he suspected, they weren't stupid, just overconfident. Silently, he slipped into the hallway, leaving Lee to his work.

The halls were quiet and empty, just the way he liked it. His footsteps silent, Kai dashed in a random direction. He couldn't remain lost forever. He had only turned a few corners when a familiar scent hit his nose. It smelled of outside air, a blessing compared to the stuffy musk that seemed to be everywhere in the mansion. It was faint, but he had to take a chance.

Kai moved as fast as he could, the smell of the outside world growing more and more powerful as he approached its source. He skidded to a stop right in front of a long set of stairs just as he heard a giant thud. A wave of fresh air hit his face before the dull smell of the mansion returned. "Crap," he whispered to himself. Quickly he covered his mouth, but as he felt numerous sets of eyes upon him, he knew it was too late. "Double crap."

"Who's that?"

"It's him. He's not supposed to be out here."

"Gale will have our heads if she finds him."

"Get him."

With inhuman movements, a small group of them jumped into the air, landing directly Kai. The others dashed up the stairs at lightning speeds. Kai acted quickly before he was pinned. He jumped over the stair's railing and found his way to the nearest door. With a powerful kick, he ripped it off the hinges and ran down the hallway. Now in unfamiliar territory, he was at a disadvantage. With no way of knowing the mansion's layout, his only hope was to listen closely to the sound of his footsteps bouncing off the walls, and adjust himself accordingly. He was lucky the carpet gave way to stone.

The farther he went, the more dank the air became, but there was no turning back now. He turned a sharp corner and tripped, plummeting down a flight of hard, stone stairs. Knowing he couldn't stay down for long, he hopped to his feet, still holding his back in pain. The air around him had become even more dank than before. But even worse, there the faintest hint of rotting flesh.

"H-hey, it's that guy! Over here, man!" Behind him, Kai suddenly heard the excited murmurs of numerous men and women. "They got us trapped in here. I know you can't see but get the key, quick. It's right behind you. And I'm right in front of the lock, right next to you."

Kai felt around. Right next to his head were thick, steel bars. It looked like the men were caged. That certainly explained some things.

As he heard the footsteps of his pursuers draw near, he knew there was no time to find the key. "Stand back a little." As Kai commanded, they stepped away from the doors, and just as the pokemon appeared, he grunted as he brought his foot down on the lock. It broke into pieces, and the men flooded from the cage. They all yelled and cheered as they ran for the exit. They mowed the pokemon down as they charged through the hallway.

Kai stepped to the side so as not to be trampled as they all exited the cage. He wondered just how big that cage was when it could fit two-hundred or more men. It didn't matter much.

He followed the last of the men down the hallway. Before he had even arrived, they were working together to bash the front door down. Things were going better than expected. Kai was prepared to enlist help to rescue Lee when he was hit by a sudden wave of dread. He couldn't see, but he knew something was wrong when all of the men went silent.

Atop the stairs and in every doorway, the escorts appeared. They appeared from nowhere, some seemingly melting through the ceiling and phasing through the walls and floors. All of their eyes glowed red, and their wide smiles displayed their many sharp teeth.

There was a long moment of silence as the men all stared at the army of pokemon. In a last ditch effort, the men at the door pulled themselves together and tried to push their way out, the others desperately trying to help. When the door finally began to budge the pokemon attacked. The emitted bestial roars as they jumped into the crowd, each of them tackling their victims to the ground.

Hearing the commotion halfway across the mansion, Gale was forced to investigate. She snapped her finger and in an instant she was hovering above the foyer. Her jaw dropped when she saw all of her subjects attacking, raping, and killing all of the men. It was a scene of pure chaos. Stray men running for their lives and rabid pokemon chasing them. Men with large chunks and limbs ripped from their bodies, others pinned down and stripped as they were mercilessly violated by pokemon too horny to eat.

"Dammit," Gale growled. It was far too late to stop them now. Once her minions started, it was impossible to stop them. The least she could do was find who was responsible, and she knew just who it was.

"Cammy!" Gale's booming voice rumbled the walls.

All the way in her room, Camille sat up from under her covers. "Oh crap."

Gale teleported to her room in an instant. She wasn't surprised at what she found.

Camille did her best to conceal her naked body with her covers. "G-Gale, I-I was just making sure he wouldn't escape." Lee peeked from beneath the covers but quickly hid himself again. "S-see?" Camille laughed nervously but it was obvious that Gale wasn't amused.

"I should have known you would mess this up! I asked one thing, one simple thing: watch them, and you can't even do that right! Now Kai's missing, the prisoners are free, and there's a feeding frenzy in the foyer! If we weren't already so close to the ritual I'd snap your neck, fix it, and snap it again! If you don't clean up this mess I'll do just that and...where's the other one?"

Camille felt the blanket where Lee used to be only to find air and a warm spot. She threw the covers away to find that he was long gone, as were his clothes.

"Catch them, now."

Without hesitation, Camille materialized her dress and flew out the door.

Lee sprinted down the hall, just barely having slipped his shirt back on. "Not part of the plan, but good enough!" He dashed down the hallway, passing by many men running the opposite way. It took a moment to put two and two together, but Lee soon realized he probably shouldn't have been heading that way. He went to turn around but he spotted a familiar face among the small stampede of men. "Kai!"

Kai leaned against the wall, holding his bleeding arm. "Looks like you didn't need my help after all."

"Yeah, but it looks like you needed mine. You gonna be alright?"

"I'll live."

"What about an exit?"

"Haven't gotten to that part of the plan yet. But now seems like the perfect time to search. Let's go."

They turned to leave, but they stopped as they found a familiar mewtwo standing directly in their path. "You two have had your fun, now you're coming back with me. You should know you have no chance of escape, so just make it easier on yourselves and give up."

"Okay," Lee said almost immediately.

"'O-okay?'" Camille stared at him with an incredulous look. Without hesitation, he raised his hands into the air and turned his back to her. Needless to say, she was skeptical. "And you," she asked as she turned to Kai. Just as quickly as Lee, Kai turned and raised his hands in the air.

"I hope you have plan, Lee..."

"I never plan."

Cautiously, Camille approached them. "March, you two. Back to the room."

Without complaint, they walked forward with Camille a safe distance behind them. Though they appeared to cooperate, she made sure to watch them closely. They were beginning to be more trouble than they were worth.

"I think I may have just lied," Lee whispered to Kai. "I don't know if this counts as a plan but, I'm going to distract her again. You've gotta get out of here."

"You make it sound like you're not coming back."

"This ain't an action movie. I'm not that selfless, but if nobody stops her, at least for a little bit, she'll keep catching us."

"Then I'll do it."

"You know that wont work. She wants me, not you. We don't have time to argue. When I give the signal, you go. And don't worry about me, I've gotten out of worse situations than this. Just don't go and get yourself caught, 'cause I'm really lazy, and I'll be pissed if I have to come save you again."

Kai chuckled. "Alright then. Same to you."

"Last one out's a rotten egg."

"No talking, you two," Camille yelled. The timing couldn't have been any more perfect. Both Kai and Lee turned into the room that was their former prison. The moment Camille reached the doorway, Lee's foot collided with her face. She was sent careening into the wall. Winded, she had no time to react as Lee followed up with another kick, sending her flying down the hall.

"Well, it's been nice meeting you, Kai. We'll have to get together after this is over."

"Likewise. Good luck, and I'll see you on the outside." Kai sprinted down the hallway, leaving Lee to face Camille.

"That's one cool dude. Heh, alrighty. Up and at 'em. I know that wasn't enough to knock you out."

Camille sighed as she went to stand. "I'm hurt, Lee. To think you would do such a thing."

"Well you may not believe me, but I am sorry about that. I don't normally like to hit women."

"It's alright. I can't stay mad at you. After all," Camille vanished. In a split second, her arm was wrapped around Lee's neck. "You and I are going to be best friends, forever." Lee struggled to escape, but he could barely budge Camille's arm. "Can you hear them, Lee, the screaming souls of all those dead men out there? They're nothing but bait to call the demons we need. They're already here, this place is ready. Look."

Lee's eyes went wide as a black fog began to shroud his feet. The light bulbs above is head exploded, and the air grew cold.

"Dark Ones, we ask that you grant us your blessings, and your power." As Camille chanted, the dark fog crawled up Lee's legs. "We've already completed one part of the ritual beforehand. We're almost done." Without warning, she sank her teeth into Lee's neck. He gasped, but despite his best effort to shake Camille free, there was nothing he could do. She lapped up his blood, chuckling as she licked her lips. The darkness had come up to Lee's chest. "Just one more thing." Quickly Camille bit into her own wrist, causing black blood to flow. She held it up to Lee's face. "Complete the ritual, drink it!"

"No thanks." Lee raised his leg high and brought it down on to Camille's foot. She cried out, only to have Lee throw his head back and hit her in the face. Before she could recover, he escaped her grip and drove his knee into her stomach. "Sorry." He ran down the hall as she doubled over in pain.

Lee raced forward as fast as his feet would allow. He ran for minutes through the winding corridors, without making any sort of progress. Every turn looked the same, and every minute that passed made finding an exit all the more unlikely. At the very least, Camille would be chasing him instead of Kai, but running in circles just increased his chances of encountering her again.

He entered the nearest door and quietly closed it behind him. He headed straight for his only chance of escape: the window, but like before, he could do little to open it. "Feels like regular glass," he mumbled as he tapped it. "So what the hell makes it so strong?"

"I do."

Lee turned faster than he thought possible, just in time to see Camille slam the door behind her. She waved her finger and all the room's furniture piled behind her, sealing the door indefinitely. "No more games."

"What? I said I was sorry."

It was clear that she wasn't amused by his joking tone. Her eyes glowed even brighter than usual. As she stepped toward Lee, he dropped into a fighting stance, causing her halt her progression.

Lee chuckled. "Scared of little old me?"

Camille growled as she gritted her teeth. She raised her hand to him."Just give up before I have to hurt you!"

"'Fraid not, bro."

"Fine!" Her hand recoiled as an invisible force flew from her hand. Lee jumped into the air, the invisible blast flying through his legs and blowing a large hole into the wall.

"Thanks," Lee said as he jumped backwards through the gaping exit. He kicked off the wall and propelled himself into the trees and running as fast as he could. "I hope you make it out, Kai..."

"No!" Camille rushed after him, but as she hovered outside of the hole, she could see nothing but trees. "No, no, no, no!" Using her power, she ripped up every nearby tree as quickly as she could, desperate to catch Lee before he escaped. After destroying yards of plant life in every direction, there was no sign of him. She stood for a moment, shocked. "No...No!" She let out an inhuman roar that shook the mansion.

As it reached Kai's ears, his body almost began to tremble. "Wow, what was that?"

"My oh my." Kai turned to find Gale seemingly melting in from the wall. "I haven't heard her scream like that in ages. It sounds like she's lost her prey. Unfortunately for you, I wont be so easy to escape."

The ground beneath Kai's feet suddenly began to shift. It rocked back and forth, rising and falling like it was made of water. The hallway creaked as it twisted and turned. It was making Kai seasick. Quickly he dashed backwards, tripping over his own legs as the ground rose and fell beneath him. It was strange, it felt as if he were going nowhere.

"You can't escape me, Kai."

Kai continued to run, but as he stepped forward, the ground swallowed his feet. He struggled, but like quicksand, it pulled him down, head and all.

He gasped as he awoke. His arms and legs were bound, but by what, he couldn't see. His shirt was missing as well.

"Awake so soon? It's only been a few minutes." Kai froze as he heard the voice. It could have only been Gale. No other voice made him shake. "I must commend you on so quickly finding out about Camille's problem. I know it was you that had the plan to exploit it, because your friend doesn't think."

There was an almost noxious smell in the air as Gale poured various liquids into a cup and gently stirred them.

"Really it's my fault she's like that to begin with. It was centuries ago, my first time performing the ritual. Mess up one little thing and well, results vary. She's normally so intelligent too, but whenever she gets angry or thinks about sex, it almost seems like she turns into a child. But look at me rambling on. Guess I'm just excited."

As she approached Kai a familiar feeling of dread began to fill him. He fought against his restraints, but to no avail. "Shhh," Gale whispered to him. She raised her hand to his face. Against his will, Kai found himself growing calm, his body almost going limp. "Hold still, now."

Gale poured the bubbly green liquid over the large gash in his arm. It hurt for only a second before the pain was overtaken by warmth. In seconds, the gash was closed, and his arm felt good as new.

"Better, Kai?"

"...y-yeah..."

"Good, now is there anywhere else you're hurt? This is important, because if there is, it'll never go away after the ritual."

"Why...what are you?"

Gale sighed. "Demons, monsters, witches, beasts, succubus, we've been called many things. I don't particularly care for any of those titles. The answer is: I really don't know myself."

"...Why me then? Out of all those people?"

Gale hesitated. "...you ...remind me of-" Just then, the wall clock rang out with the sound of a small bell. It was eleven. "Oh we'll have plenty of time to talk later. We must do this before the Dark Ones leave at midnight. It won't take long, now bare with me."

Gale sat on the edge of the bed as began rubbing her hand up and down Kai's chest. Her hand was strangely soft and gentle. Kai found himself relaxing even more than before. Whatever she had done, he didn't like it, but there was nothing he could do.

Gale took her time massaging Kai's bare chest, squeezing on his muscles and feeling on his abs. It wasn't long before her hands traveled even farther down. As hard as Kai tried to resist, his body wouldn't move, even as Gale's hand slid down his pants.

"The Dark Ones are very carnal creatures. They're much more inclined to grant you their power if you...well, put on a show." Kai's breathing sped up as he felt Gale's gentle hand massage him through his underwear. She was thorough as she grabbed and squeezed him every which way she could. Inevitably, Kai began to grow hard in her hands.

She smiled as she lay down next to Kai. She wrapped her arm around his neck and pulled him close. Her hand never left his pants. As she continued to massage him to hardness, she brought her nose to his neck and inhaled his scent. Kai feebly tried to push her away, but it only made her hug him even tighter. "You even smell like him..."

Slowly Gale pushed both Kai's pants and underwear down. His member stood tall, the slightest amount of pre bubbling at its tip. There seemed to be no end to Gale's teasing. Lightly she caressed the skin around his member, making his legs twitch at her touch. She reached far in between his legs, grabbing hold of his balls and massaging them in hand. Gale hadn't been so excited in centuries.

"Are you enjoying yourself, Kai," she whispered into his ear. She chuckled when she received only silence as a response. "The silent treatment. That's fine. You will, in time." She dragged her tongue along his neck, causing him to inhale sharply. "I've done this many times before. Resist if you like, but I will win."

She finally wrapped her soft hand around Kai's member as she continued to breathe down his neck. As she stroked him up and down, she whispered something in his ear. He couldn't understand it, but it made his body feel warm. He shuddered. Whatever was happening, he didn't want it to stop. "Wh-what are doing?"

"You will be mine, forever."

"I...no..."

Kai quickly felt his resistance fading as Gale continued to whisper unintelligible words into his ears. His member throbbed in her hand. He fought the urge to thrust forward.

"Kiss me, Kai." Without hesitation, he turned his head to her. As gentle as ever, she pressed her lips to his. Kai couldn't stop himself from blushing. He moaned into her mouth as he felt her run her thumb in circles over his tip. He told himself again and again that he wasn't enjoying it, but he couldn't believe his own words.

He felt powerless as he forced his tongue into Gale's mouth, and disgusted as she mirrored his actions. Wantonly he panted into her mouth, unable to fight his own carnal urge for pleasure. He wasn't sure when it had happened, but his body began to move again, just not in the way he wanted. He squirmed in Gale's grip, his hips thrusting up into her hands.

Gale pulled away before he could get too rowdy. "Don't get too excited now, Kai. We haven't even gotten to the good part yet."

Kai felt a hint of disappointment as Gale moved away, but she didn't stay away for long. She climbed atop his body, straddling his hips with her own. She smiled wide as she rubbed her hands up and down his chest and ground her soft rump into his lap. "Go ahead, tell me you love me."

Kai bit his lip as he tried to hold his tongue. It took everything he had not to say a word as Gale rubbed her body against his member.

"You're a resilient one, aren't you? No matter." She lifted her dress high and lowered herself once more, pressing her bare skin to Kai's crotch. "They all resist in the beginning." She leaned down, wrapping her arms around Kai's neck and head. He squirmed as she planted kisses up and down his neck. Once more, he could feel his resistance fading as Gale rubbed her entire body against his.

"We're almost done with the ritual, Kai. Just two more things." Being as gentle as she could, Gale sunk her teeth into Kai's neck. He was far too distracted to feel the pain. Gale sucked a great deal of blood from him, and let the rest run down his neck. "It will heal before the ritual is done. Don't worry." She bit her own tongue causing black liquid to fill her mouth. She pressed her lips to Kai's forcing him to swallow her dark blood.

Kai had no way of noticing the abundance of black mist crawling from underneath the bed. Slowly but surely it crept up the bed posts and began to shroud his body. "Just one part left. Share your seed with me."

Gale lifted her butt high and slowly lowered it on to Kai's member. The both of them shuddered at the feeling. "It's been so long," Gale sighed as she felt Kai spread her walls apart. She hugged him close, squeezing him almost painfully tight as a wave of euphoria overwhelmed her body. She gyrated her hips as she slid down Kai's shaft. Her mouth hung wide open, the intense feeling sending her into bliss.

"Oh, you will enjoy this, Kai. I'll make sure of it." Again, Kai said nothing. He turned his head and held his mouth shut as Gale began to bounce on top of him. His mind was blurry. He could barely think. The pleasure and need to resist were his only focuses.

Gale propped herself on her arms, her breasts dangling in front of Kai's face. She grunted loudly as she thrust forward again and again. The bed began to shake, its old. metal springs creaking as they were forced downwards.

Gale felt immense joy as she stared down at Kai's face. It amused her how hard he tried to resist when she could tell that his body was aching for release. His cheeks burned a bright red, and his mouth hung wide open. Gale could hear faint moans emanating from his throat. Whether he liked it or not, he was enjoying himself.

Gale waved her finger and the restraints on Kai's arms were released. Almost immediately, his arms lunged forward and wrapped around Gale's neck. In a remarkable display of strength, he pulled Gale down and hugged her close. The ritual's effects were already becoming apparent. Gale couldn't pull herself back up, not that she wanted to. Kai was stronger and more resilient than she had planned, but that only made her more excited.

"Yes, Kai, let loose. I know you want to."

Gale quickly built up speed as she bounced on Kai's member. Her smile grew wider and wider as she watched him submit. As hard as he tried to fight, he couldn't fight forever. Kai could do nothing as his body satisfied its urges. His hips thrust upwards, meeting Gale's halfway at every push. It was tiring to endure. While he lasted long, he soon ran out of willpower, much to Gale's delight.

Her once small grin and grown into an evil smile. She flashed every one of her sharp teeth as she felt the last of Kai's resistance disappear. His thrusts had gone from weak and apprehensive, to wild and strong. She laughed loudly. The feeling of triumph filled her with unimaginable joy. She had won, like always.

Kai groaned out, his body quivering as he loosed his seed into Gale's tunnel. His shouts were soon muffled by the shroud of darkness as it enveloped his body and filled the room.

Camille sighed. She berated herself as she stared at the moon through the gaping hole in her wall. Though there was no use crying over it, she would most likely be thinking about it for weeks. She groaned over and over. She was even beginning to annoy herself.

"What did I tell you about that man?" The voice came from behind. Camille didn't need to turn to know it was Gale.

"Don't rub it in." Tilting her head back, she found Gale with Kai hanging in her arms. "At least you got something you wanted."

"He'll be hard to tame, but it'll be worth it in the end."

"Lucky you." Camille sighed again.

"You know, there's still plenty of time before dawn. I'm sure if we venture to the nearest town, we could find you some temporary relief..

"It wouldn't be the same."

"You never know until you try. Who knows? You might even find a better one."

"Doubtful, but I guess I have nothing better to do."

"Wonderful. The night is still young, and...I think our minions are still hungry."
