Nine: Plans

Sofi was back to the guild after a few weeks of waiting for her insides to feel less stressed and her groin to not be so ‘open’. She’d been practicing releasing little bits of pheromone at a time to control her brother, cousins and her father. It was the only way she could get them all to obey her and she was getting much better at it! However, she was finding herself frustrated upon returning to the guild, that no one was willing to sit down with her with their parties and talk about what she had in mind. Even though they were all aware she had gained quite a trove in that last matter, they were not looking at her as anything but a rookie still.

It was being irked on by that frustrating Furret female, who was quick to complain at Sofi for being absent without leave and for suggesting something very stupid towards some of the other guild members. It had taken Sofi by surprise to have the fluffy creature spin in frustrated circles in front of her before snapping and grumbling, but what could she do? Very quickly she was sent off to the main office to talk to Valerian and oddly, she was not looking forward to it.

As she reached his door, recalling what had happened the first time and how easily she had been influenced by this Zoroark since joining the guild, Sofi thought to be a little more careful with how she approached him and talked to him. With a soft sigh she’d let out a very soft amount of pheromones, wrapping her attract and charm about herself in a gentle perfume. Then, with a soft smile she knocked on the door and was beckoned inside as Valerian was lounging upon his chest, looking a little grim compared to usual.

“Good afternoon, Sofi… how are you? I heard you had a similar problem to myself…” Valerian chortled softly, but it was enough to make Sofi stare at him with a few blinks of confusion. She could not understand what he might be talking about until she noticed that thick mane upon his back that was just wriggling and writhing and her nose twitched in confusion. But then, she was surprised when the smallest little grey coloured fox poked its head from the mane with its own little red blaze. There was a second that popped up before a third, little Zorua and Sofi blinked in surprise.”

“Are these your babies?” Sofi was suddenly distracted, so it was obvious to Valerian what had happened with Sofi but unlike him she’d been safely producing a dud. However, as she looked at the three baby Zorua, she was more than thoughtful that maybe Valerian was far more naughty than he would like to admit and she narrowed her eyes at him thoughtfully as he grinned up at her in amusement. “Are they from your mate?”

“Yes… yes I did…” Valerian stated, only to blush firmly in anxiety as he then straightened upwards. The babies gave little yips of delight, snuggling into their father’s mane as he gave Sofi a suddenly dangerous expression. She knew to immediately sit down and coo about the babies, Zoroark could be deadly when they thought someone was being unkind to their offspring, even if he knew he was the one who’d done something stupid. However, Valerian then sighed and sat himself down with a soft grunt, rubbing his forehead. “My mate’s on a mission at the moment and I was a little worried about leaving our pups at the den… especially when there are lots of thieves popping up in our deeper regions of the dungeon.”

“Thieves?” Sofi questioned, her throat tightening and her anxiety building as she realised that there was a possibility that this was what she’d been called into for.

“Yes… but I’m cautious that we might have them infiltrating the guilds or getting guild information…” Valerian grunted, steering the conversation away from the subject of his babies, Sofi gulped heavily. She was now worried that she’d been found out, even though she’d only been behaving and doing what she was supposed to be doing to live a normal life to get more money in for her family… she was supposed to be doing a little more stealing. However, Valerian gave a grunt and shook his head. “It would be useful if we could determine who it was but… I had a concern about that rodent…”

“You mean Cricket? I thought you said he was a well-known thief anyway when I was sent on that mission with the intention of getting that antidote!” Sofi scoffed, hoping she could shift the idea that Cricket was the troubling one and she quickly began to wave her paws about and put in a panicking expression that would fool the rather curiously faced fox. “Wait… he escaped from me that time and then, when I was waiting for you all to come and see the Charizard I had taken down, I swear I spotted him in one of the sewer passages…”

“What! Well… that little… rat… no wonder someone’s been spreading information about our guild taking down that beast. You’d be surprised the amount of beasts that turn up and ask me for a piece of the claim for something they believe was stolen from them!” Valerian groaned in frustration, shaking his head about and Sofi released a quiet sigh. She had shifted the blame thankfully, but now she was worried about how she was going to get a chance to look at that dinosaur’s patch… until she suddenly came up with a plan.

“My father mentioned there were passages where the thieves used to go and store things, not to mention would seek out dangerous Pokémon they could manoeuvre around to hide their horde amongst its own. That’s what I reckon Cricket had done with that antidote. Maybe there’s another vicious beast out there that’s got a trove hidden there… maybe the thieves taken stuff from the guild already? Who can say…” Sofi began, trying to look both innocent and thoughtful, as if these thoughts were only just occurring to her! They were, but of course not in the same way… if she figured out a way to use this thievery to get a mission to check out the Tyrantrum’s lair, they could get a chance to scout the area and take it down!

“Good point… have a talk to everyone in the different dorms and see if anyone’s missing something, then we’ll have a look about and see if there’s been any sign of that rodent!” Valerian grunted and Sofi nodded her head, insisting she’d get to it tomorrow, but first she had to do and see someone! Valerian nodded his head, letting her go as Sofi then turned to leave, feeling ridiculous all the same because that Zoroark had cubs all along and a mate! How salacious and rude, she just wanted to upset him now for that kind of lie!

With a skip and a bound, she hurried off towards the odd passages that she had seen the members of the fighting guild use and pushed them open. She scuttled in, squeezing her body through it and then pulling herself up out through the passage. Once there, she cantered off towards the Fighting Guild and was pleased that when she turned up, there was only a pair of Marrowak on guard as Sofi waved at them in greeting. They stared at her in confusion for a little while, surprised that someone who was clearly from the Water Guild would turn up, before they guessed who she was as she waved at them.

“I was hoping to come in and talk to Seth about some work I’ve got for him… but just for him because I can trust him.” Sofi grinned, she was forming up a plan but it was going to take a little work. She would have to get Seth and some of his sneaky friends on her side as well as get her father to gather some of his thieves to help her out and help themselves out. She knew her brother, cousins and father could not be seen either, or it would be blown but as the bone-wearing fighters growled, they let her in with a few whacks onto the door to open the dungeon up and Sofi bounced in.

She bounded into the main hall, seeing a variety of fighting Pokémon from Machop, to Kangis-khan to even a Nine-tails who was practicing with a Jolteon of all things! Sofi was startled, she realised that she might actually be able to make this work if she forgot about talking to Seth first and went right to the Chesnaught boss… she was going to arrange a match between this guild and the water guild for some ‘bonding’ and provide a prize herself, then whilst everyone was distracted, have her father’s group steal items! It sounded like the perfect plan as she bumped into a Hit-mon-Lee, who very calmly guided her up to the boss’ little gym.

The Chesnaught, Crunch, was as big as he had been when she’d met him by the dead Charizard and certainly looking intimidating when she bounced into his room. His great fists were hammering into a hard stone pillar, chips flying off about the room as the big creature grunted and snorted. Crunch seemed totally absorbed in the matter as Sofi settled herself down patiently, waiting for him to notice as she waved her paw about for him. For a little while longer, he continued to keep thumping his fist for a while before then turning around and noticing her with a soft snort of amusement. He froze, spinning about to face her and then grinning as he leant forward to give her a gentle sniff.

“I thought it was you, the cute girl from the Charizard… heh, come to join our guild? We’d welcome it…” Crush snorted in amusement and straightened up, looking her up and down in fascination as Sofi just stared up at him for a while in anxiety. She had not expected him to suggest that, but she was also aware of the way he was sniffing the air, the way he was looking down at her and it was clear he wanted something from her. She was quite sure she knew what it was and very gently, she wheezed out a few pheromones that made his nose twitch desperately as she looked up at him thoughtfully.

“I was hoping you would be interested in having a challenge with my guild as a sort of movement towards alliance… just a friendly series of battles with your best guild members against ours. I’ll donate my earnings from the Charizard towards it, I wanted it to happen tomorrow possibly…” Sofi stated, trying to look as sweet as she could as he looked up at him with such a hopeful expression as Crush looked at her curiously. He brought his big paw to his chin, thinking it over but then giving a sudden growl.

“That’s too short a time…” He began, only for Sofi to produce as many pheromones as she could before she stretched forward and stroked at his belly gently.

“I know… but I’m asking a favour and offering a favour in return…” Sofi cooed sweetly, producing her pheromones as strongly as she could to make his eyes spin and his nose twitch in desperation. He looked down at her smaller form, her cuteness and he licked his lips as his nose wiggled. He could feel himself developing an erection and he stretched a paw out to stroke at her face before pulling her to his own, his tongue stuffing down into her mouth as she gave a slight gagging sensation of shock as he held her tightly and began to roll his tongue in her mouth, making her hot but embarrassed too!

“I want to feel your mouth on me but I also want to taste you…” Crush growled softly and Sofi’s eyes widened in surprise before she gave a heavy gulp.

“Just be gentle with me… I’ve never dealt with someone so… big.” Sofi blushed, looking adorable and sweet towards the big male as the creature gulped heavily. He was gaining more arousal as he looked down at her and Sofi was less nervous about dealing with this big guy, now she knew what he wanted from her. It was easy enough to wait for the big beast to roll onto his side and pull her into him, letting her kneel upwards out of his grip to get in the right position on her side, but it was going to be a strain for her.

Crush was a lot taller than her, he pulled her groin up to his muzzle, nuzzling beneath her two tails with that short snout of his as she gave a shudder of surprise. She produced a little more of her charming spell to keep him occupied as he kissed her thighs, nuzzling and licking at them as she stretched herself along his form. It had been a little while since someone different had touched her, let alone licked her and she was excited, but she was more concerned by whether she could reach him as she reached her paws down, only for something to tap her nose!

The big creature had swung his tail up and brought with him his groin, curling it up towards her with some surprising grace as if he knew she would have trouble. Sofi gulped in surprise, she had not expected this level of courtesy as she looked at the large piece of meat coming towards her. She stretched her paws forward, grasping him and stroking him as she felt her thighs quiver and then brought her muzzle to his form. She opened her mouth wide, stretching out her tongue and strolling it in circles around the firm head that was straining out to meet her. She gave a soft moan, pumping her paws around the shaft gently as she opened her mouth wide and continued to lick and suck at the form.

When Crush felt her muzzle about his form, he gave a shiver of delight and then spread her legs, crouching forward and bringing his face right into her pussy as she gave a sudden yelp of surprise. His nose pressed between her lips, taking in fervent sniffs at her groin as he then stretched out his tongue. His tongue then grazed her pussy open, stretching through to clean the juice within before then rolling his tongue around her entrance.

“Uuunnnh…” She groaned, loving the sensation as his tongue slid around in a circle about her opening as she shivered and moaned again. It made Crush grin as his tongue slipped back into his mouth and managed to flick her clit. He then stretched his tongue out to stroke around her clitoris for a moment, then pulled back. He then stretched his tongue back to the hole, strolling around it and pressing inwards as she shivered again.

“You like it?” Crush paused to question her, watching her pussy ooze in desperation as Sofi groaned in pleasure and the big beast grinned in amusement. He didn’t need anymore indication as he stuck his tongue back to her hole, lapping the twitching skin around it as he made her body twitch. It was obvious that he wanted to get Sofi excited enough that she’d let him in, so Sofi needed to do her best to prepare his cock.

She stretched her paws about it, pumping at him gently and opening her mouth wide, her tongue slowly tracing a circle around his own little slit at the top. She felt his form bulge within her paws as she licked and stroked the head gently, before then lifting him upwards. She began to stroke more firmly with her tongue beneath his frenulum, lapping and slurping loudly as he joined her in the squelching melody.

The pair began to pant and heave, their bodies getting hotter and wetter, their mouths soaked with drool and they were dribbling from their warmest spots, desperate for each other. The more Crush’s tongue grazed and teased, licking at her clitoris in response, her body would tighten up in desperation to squeeze out the bubble of pleasure trapped within. As she brought his head to her lips, dragging them against it in a slurping, hot kiss that made him dribble precum, the cock was throbbing obviously and it was clear, this couldn’t just end as a sixty-nine.

“Sofi… are you desperate too?” Crush groaned softly and Sofi gave a soft moan of desperation, unsure if she could really fit this guy’s form inside her, but it was obvious he was not going to be content with just licking. She had to agree, her body was feeling that desperate clenching twitch inside that said it needed to be filled up, that she needed something to open her out wide and make her happy. She groaned as she pulled her mouth from his form and looked at him sheepishly.

“If you’ll be gentle?” She beckoned sweetly and Crush’s cock thickened with her paws as he grinned.

“Yes ma’am…” The big being stated with a slow slurp of pleasure as he then pulled himself free from her and let Sofi lie back upon the ground. Her original confidence was flagging again, she was not quite sure she could fit that form inside her as easily as the male might think, but she’d made her bed now. With a groan, she rolled onto her front, lifting her two tails and lifting her hips, exposing herself as she shook her backside at him.

“You’re on the big side… it’ll be easier this way.” Sofi muttered, going onto her knees where it might be more comfortable and her paws down. She put her head between her paws, knowing she was going to need to gasp and hide the tears likely to pour out of her face. The little Buizel waited obediently for him as Crush then stood behind her, gently laying himself over her back to let her feel his weight before they got into it. His weight was great and she was more than a little worried about whether she was going to be able to bear it, but when he dropped to his knees behind her, she felt more relief.

That was… relief until she felt that hot form press to her groin!

“So soft…” He’d growled softly, rubbing his hot, hard form against her opening, stroking up and down so that her own juices flickered and coated him. He was trying to make sure he was wet enough to get inside her and Sofi took in a heavy gulp desperate for it to be comfortable and not as terrifying as she feared it truly would be. Crush rubbed himself against her some more, waiting for his head to glisten from her juices before he pushed himself into her opening, watching the bright pink open out wide to swallow him!

Sofi gave a sudden gasp, smothering her mouth and then just biting into her paw, growling to herself as she felt the sensation of her pelvis being pulled open and cracked! It was not really, but that sensation did not go away as she felt herself being pulled and tugged right open, not really ready for it but having to take in the wide round helmet. She groaned as he pushed himself inside, forcing her open and making her feel as if she might tear before the tightness eased and his form slid into the wider opening with a soft schlup.

“Good…” Crush growled softly to himself, pinching his lips together and then licking them with pleasure as he could still taste her on his tongue. He could feel her insides quivering and pinching around him, see her face scrunching up as she dared to try and cope with his width. The big male then gently rocked his hips back, making her take a sudden loud gasp of shock as he pulled himself back and then gently pushed back in. This time he went further, his cockhead thumping into a deeper part of her that rang like a gong up her spine to make her gasp.

“Gentle… gentle…” Sofi whispered through grit teeth, tears forming in her eyes to say she would not be opening them willingly. She was trying to take in breath, relax herself out and yet it seemed almost impossible as once more he pulled back and then pushed his cock forward with a gentle thump. He took a deep grunting breath, pulling back to make her insides sing and pour out their honey before he pushed deep in again and her feet strained out. “Please be gentle…”

Sofi released some more of her charm, trying to control him into being a little less rough but it seemed to take a minute. Crush continued his slow withdrawal and then his firm push forward would smack into the inner drum to make Sofi gasp. It took a while for her to ask for him to be slower and release enough pheromones for the big male to pant and then move with a better pace. He began to grind into her, feeling for the spot where her body squeezed him most before he then gave a soft groan and focused here.

As he focused all his desire in this one spot, his form thickened and it rubbed and teased every part that made Sofi groan and sigh. Her legs stretched out wider, her hips lifting up and pushing against his motions as her body squeezed around him. That wonderful sensation of him hitting the right spot was causing her to breathe in with a gasp and wheeze out with a moan, her hips quaking as desperation began to grow for the orgasm building up. Her mouth was getting wet and she could see the straining expression upon his face as she wrapped her feet around him, holding him in that spot.

Crush groaned in pleasure, thrusting faster but in shallower motions, making sure he was still hitting the same spot as her body clenched down on him. The sound between them was wetter and the smacking was more a squelch mingled by their desperate pants and moans. Crush looked down at Sofi with a desperate expression, almost looking as if he wanted to kiss, but Sofi was struggling to keep breathing as he continued to hurry into her and she felt her mind starting to go blank as her insides tensed, ready to blow!

“Oh… oh… Crush…” Sofi moaned, her body tightening up and her mind feeling more like it was going to take her sanity along with it. His firm form was reaching in deep, rubbing at parts no one had ever reached before and she whimpered desperately, her whole body screaming. She felt her mind melting away, her insides were on fire and yet Crush was still drilling in as she could not hold back her voice.

“That’s right… I like your moans…” He groaned in pleasure, his own voice tightened and strained as he held her tightly to him, hurrying his form in and out as desperately as he could. He looked very excited and yet his whole mind was spinning away too. The joy and ecstasy of filling someone with his form was taking away the part of him that was doubting what was happening. It was making that little niggling part that thought he’d agreed to something strange just now, get pushed to the back as the pleasure of what was about to happen gripped hold of his mind and made his balls clench!

He gave a guttural sound, groaning out as he then pushed forward once more and she tightened. Her body squeezed hold of him, holding him in place as it then seemed to pour honey around him and Sofi gave out a desperate groan of pleasure. Her hips jolted, lifting up against him, her thighs were twitching, and she knew she must have sounded like she was being strangled. Embarrassment though was wiped away by the pleasure she felt and then that hot flush as Crush reached his end.

As she continued to push into him, pushing his form in as far as he could, it squeezed about him and held him inside as her body quivered around him. Every massaging squeeze and extra pressure that came from her body was making his own body scream in utter delight as she gave out a groan of happiness beneath him. Hearing that, he hurried just a little more and gave one last push before he felt the pressure punched out of him and then that happiness slapped back into him. He groaned out loudly, opening his mouth with a wet sigh of relief as his body calmed down.

With this release, a pool of cum… thick cum to say that Crush was much more used to working out than breeding, flushed up into Sofi’s body. It rushed up towards her womb and she could swear she was feeling herself being filled again. For that brief moment, the fear of another dud egg slapped into her mind, but the soft hot cream seemed to soothe her raw insides, urge her to release more honey as she moaned and slumped downwards.

“Good huh?” Crush questioned as he remained inside her, panting into her ears and licking his lips. He then brought his head to her neck, nuzzling and nibbling at her as she shivered beneath him. Sofi was not sure of this, he was still pretty thick inside her, but she beckoned for him to pull free and so he obeyed, pulling back as she swamped him with the pheromones and her adorable charm again.

“Oh… Crush… it was so good… but you’ll do what I asked, won’t you?” Sofi looked up at him coyly, panting heavily still with her tongue probing out, her face covered in blush and her body with a little bit of cum on it but a lot starting to trickle from her groin. She looked adorable, even soiled by him and her little lips were so brightly pink, her nipples straining out as she panted that Crush bent forward to kiss her, only for her paw to hold him back. “You promised…”

“I… I did…” Crush stated, almost wanting to growl as he sat back and then gave a proud look. He grimaced for a second though, not sure he really wanted to bury the hatchet with the other guild like this, but he nodded his head obediently as he leant back down to her and Sofi smiled sweetly.

“And if it all goes well and you win your battle… I’ll let you have me again…” Sofi stated with a sweet expression that made Crush’s heart tremble in excitement and his groin pinch. “Deal?”

“Deal!” He stated and then brought their lips together in a firm kiss… but Sofi still had work to do.

“Daddy… daddy… I’ve got a really important plan and a great opportunity you and your friends need to know!” Sofi had hurried back to the hold after pulling up the old mission on the Tyrantrum that had eaten guild members before. The task had the information on where it was, and she was sure it was the same one her father had mentioned. If that was the truth, then if she was able to get the Vaporeon to see the similarity too and disturb everyone enough that they’d be thinking of going after the thieves… then Sofi would have everything she needed to get them to take on the Tyrantrum and get a new home!

Sofi whistled out to the household, expecting someone or something to listen to her as she stared about, expecting anyone to poke their head around the corner and say hello, but the household was strangely quiet. Sofi had a bad sensation that something bad was happening, but then she stepped into her father’s room and spotted something interesting… he’d left out his calendar. Sofi lifted it up, stared at it and then gave a grunt… perfect timing, but she’d have to be fast!

With speed, the Buizel lunged out of the sunken boat and leapt into the water, with her twin tails spinning like mad and her float deflating to give her a more streamline shape. She launched into the deepest channel that was normally dangerous to pass through, but she knew damn well that it was going to be difficult not to attract unwanted attention, but that’s why this place was chosen! Sofi swam down, holding her breath and going into the swarm of Magikarp that were seemingly spawning with Garydos swimming down at lower depths to safeguard the eggs that would be shed and mixed with their own. Sofi did her best to keep moving fast and not to hit or bump such a fish, making it obvious she was not hunting.

Her father had left out the instructions on where the thieves guild were meeting up and Sofi’s event would be just what they wanted to become involved in, but would they listen to her? She was not sure of it but as they had been the ones to impress upon her father to get her into the guild, Sofi had an idea they might at least be curious. Thoughts on how she’d dealt with the matter earlier with Crush came to mind and she was quite sure she could do the same again now if it was needed. But she was not looking forward to seeing the same guild that had not given a care when their requests had led to her death!

She managed to swim down past one very large, one-eyed and one-whiskered Garydos that was a golden shade, lifting its head up to look towards her with its mouth open wide. It looked obvious that the creature might attack her, but it sniffed once then ignored her as she reached down to an old half-broken culvert where she slipped in. Then she swam up the pipe to where there was a kink like a stink trap in a sink and here was the pocket of air and the meeting place. She popped her head up with a gasp of relief and then found herself being grasped around the head by a very familiar looking mankey who snorted his piggy nose at her.

“Hello Sparkle…” Sofi gulped heavily; she hadn’t expected to be picked up by someone who used to bully her when she was little. Sparkle the little monkey-pig creature snorted at her and then dragged her down the path. Sofi gave a squeak of shock, but she had to let herself be dragged by the foot over to the others as the guild had frozen in their discussions to turn around and look at what their companion had brought to them. Their eyes were wide as Sofi gave a grunt but was let down in the centre of the circle as the collection of various and sneaky beings sat there staring at her. But swiftly, Rudder was right to her side and looking anxious as he patted her shoulders.

“Sofi… what are you doing here? This is a dangerous place to be… has something happened with that adventurer’s guild?” Rudder sounded flustered and yet no one else looked concerned by her as Sparkle released her than clambered back up onto the ceiling. The group were watching her in irritation, the Meowth leader of the guild growling low in irritation as she sat on her seeming throne of high rocks and looked towards Skipper expectantly. He looked towards the figure with a grunt and then stepped over to his daughter, grabbing her by the ear and tugging her up.

“You’re interrupting the meeting… a very important meeting so your reason had better be damned good!” Skipper snarled and Sofi was startled, she’d never seen her father look so irritated before but as she looked about the room at curious beings that ranged in size from a Ratata to a Kangiskhan, she pulled herself up and swatted her father’s paw away. Boldly, she stepped right up to the tower of rocks and to the Meowth, known as Pincher, who was staring at her in irritation before she bobbed her head to her.

“I’ve arranged the Fighting Guild and my own Guild to battle in a big ceremony tomorrow morning. I will have opened secret passages to get into my guild in the chambers and it will be a great opportunity for you to steal whatever you require. My only request is that someone makes a false trail of escape towards the Tyrantrum so that they can’t even hope to reclaim what is taken. It’s a great opportunity as everyone will be distracted and those that aren’t, I’ll control with my own pheromones…” Sofi stated, but Pincher gave a sudden cackle of amusement as she sat up and licked her paw before then giving a snort.

“That’s a perfect thought… but I don’t know if your charm is as good as you say… if it is, I’ll accept your idea.” The cat purred loudly and immediately the guild was looking excited, rubbing their paws together before Sofi queried how she could prove her abilities to the guild. Pincher was sniggering gently at the reaction and then pointed out the Grunball that was her bodyguard… Snuff… someone that had intimidated everyone and all knew was not the friendliest of beings. “Get him to fuck you in front of us and we’ll accept your deal.”

“WHAT! No way! You can’t do that to my sister!” Rudder snarled, just as Snuff stepped forward with heavy footfalls. He was quick to step in front of Sofi, lowering his head and puffing up his throat, growling and sneering as if ready to battle, but Sofi sighed. She pulled herself upwards and patted her brother’s shoulder, urging him to think rationally about this and to calm down. He looked at her in disbelief, but then even Skipper gave a haughty sort of laugh.

“If she wants us to listen, she’s got to prove its worthwhile, hasn’t she?” Skipper retorted and Rudder found his cousins grabbing him by the shoulders and pulling him back. Clearly they were interested to see just what she might do and yet for Rudder, it was like his sister was sacrificing herself and it was all their fault! The other beasts looked on in anticipation as Sofi stepped in front of Snuff and the big grey-mauve beast gave a snort of frustration.

Without a word, Sofi then emitted a large cloud of pheromones with a loving sigh as they seemed to swarm over the great grunting canine. The dog’s ears lifted slightly, his eyes widened and his nose drank in the scent eagerly… Sofi thought it might as well be over with then and there, but then Snuff gave a sneeze. He shook his head and the charm was completely gone as Sofi paused and stared at him in confusion for a while. Snuff had no reaction to it, so once more Sofi produced an even more potent amount, spinning in a circle and giving a soft sigh of pleasure that should have caught him. Once more Snuff seemed pulled in, his tongue even wagged a little out of his tusked jaw, but then he sneezed and once more the charm was broken as Sofi grit her teeth and then squeezed inwardly.

Sofi then pulled in the pheromones, pulled in the power in her body for charm and then exuded it out almost like a sudden bomb! Even the Gloom that had been staring nearby and look rather bored at the display was slammed by the hormones and gave a groan of pleasure. Female and male Pokémon present were soon sighing and looking suddenly excited but embarrassed all at once and Sofi glowered. As Snuff drank it in and even became erect through his fur, his nostrils snuffed upwards and it was clear he was going to sneeze it away… but then Sofi launched forward.

The Meowth gave a purr of pleasure as Sofi seemed to be using her brain as she’d got the dog erect and then was on her knees in front of him. She’d grabbed the shaft, one paw within the fur cupping and squeezing the balls as Snuff’s eyes widened and he remained motionless, his erection becoming stiff in Sofi’s paw. She was rubbing beneath the head as she opened her mouth and dragged her lips over the sensitive head, moaning softly and sucking at him. Snuff’s eyes were wavering, he was looking down at her with his tail wagging madly as Sofi was soon taking in more of his length with wet popping slurps, tugging him inside as the others all watched… drooling with jealousy.

For a moment, it looked like Sofi might just jerk the Grunball off and this amused the Meowth greatly because it did show that Sofi was being thoughtfully, but Sofi knew what to do. She produced another heavy wafting of her pheromones right up into Snuff’s face again, pumping his cock as she continued to soak the head, before she then pushed her head downwards. She took his entire length deep into her throat, squeezed and let her nose brush into his groin as he gave a grunt of pleasure before Sofi pulled her head back!

Eyes widened and every groin pinched in desperation as they watched her take the cock in deep and her throat squeeze. She pulled it back, letting it push into her cheeks with a bulge to show it off as she moaned and then sucked it back in. She swallowed saliva with it, tugging the form even more tightly and then pulling back again, holding her head away with a brilliant grin of affection. Snuff gulped heavily, letting her take it in again, letting her head bob back and forth along the cock before he then gave a groan and grasped her shoulders.

“Stop!” Snuff grunted and Sofi froze, he sounded so desperate and fearful that Sofi was a little worried that she’d done something wrong! Snuff then turned to look towards Pincher with a desperately fearful expression upon his face. He looked very anxious and Sofi realised quickly that the pair were certainly a couple and that Snuff was desperate to fuck, but Pincher was anxious as she smirked across to them. “Boss…?”

“I said she’s gotta make you fuck her… go ahead… you’ll get a scratching for it later…” Pincher growled viciously and Snuff shivered. He was terrified, he was not that willing to continue if he was going to upset the cat, but Sofi was quick to grasp his cock again. She then opened her mouth wide and started to suck at him again as Snuff gave a groan, drooling from his big teeth before then pushing Sofi away again and then pressing her right down into the ground.

Sofi gave a grunt for a moment before giving out a low moan of pain and surprise as the beast’s thick cock rammed itself right into her pussy. She was not prepared but thankfully still slippery and wet from her swim over here that her body was not too tight to get hurt. Rudder almost launched forward, but Skipper held him back, looking almost proud of his daughter for doing this. Sofi groaned and gagged, shocked by how fast and hurried Snuff was as he pounded into her, their bodies clapping loudly in the air as he grunted and groaned. He seemed to be desperate to get it over with as Sofi’s pussy kept pinching and squeezing around him and all Sofi could do was continue to moan loudly.

For a little while, Pincher watched but then she seemed to be getting a little hot under the collar herself as she watched from behind. The way the thick balls of the Grunball were thumping heftily against the young female’s thighs was more than a little arousing to her. She had hoped to just let her favourite companion get off inside the cheeky little madam, but in watching her own snatch was getting wet and she could only blame the young Buizel’s pheromones for it as she gave a hiss and launched onto the floor beside them both.

Sofi continued to grunt and pant desperately in pleasure and pain as the fat cock of the Grunball was hitting every point inside that tingled. Her body squeezed around him hungrily as he grunted and groaned, his tongue poking between his big bottom teeth as Snuff was gurning towards his end. But as Sofi’s body squeezed and she felt that heat inside her belly and that ecstatic pleasurable wave hurrying into place, she spotted the claws of the Meowth being strained outwards and the flashing against the canine backside.

He gave out a bark of pain that came with cum that sputtered up inside Sofi but cut off her chance of an orgasm and any more. Snuff pulled back suddenly, his cum still sputtering onto Sofi’s young body as he pulled back, whimpering fearfully as he looked towards Pincher who was snarling at him in irritation. She then stepped over Sofi’s stunned and panting form, narrowing her eyes at the youngster whilst the pheromones in the room eased but it was clear everyone inside was quite horny. Pincher needed to take control, or everyone would be swayed by this little Buizel.

“So… what time tomorrow and where do we go to steal?” The Meowth scoffed, stirring up the lust for treasure and items that the other members of the thieves were intrigued by. Sofi panted gently, her head still in a spin as she looked up at the Meowth with a groan before sighing gently.

“Tomorrow morning, in the square, I’ll meet some of you and lead you in, act like you’ve got bags of supplies, then no one will give it a second look….”

The next morning, Sofi was looking a little flushed when she arrived at the Guild but there was already an excited atmosphere and she was practically jumping up and down in anticipation as she stepped into the main hall. To her surprise, there was a huge amount of food being shifted across to another hall that she had never been to before. She was curious about it, stepping over to that familiar Skunktank as Oswald looked at her for a moment with a blush before then waving a paw to her as she questioned what was happening to them.

“Oh, Crush from the Fighting Guild has insisted that we should be having a fun battle to make amends after everything we’ve been through. Valerian said to make a big festival of it so we’re gathering and cooking to make it into a real party. We’ve got an hour before it starts so, any chance you can go up top and help bring in the food down here?” Oswald questioned softly and Sofi could not believe it, she had a way to get the thieves in without an issue and so she’d nodded her head in agreement and then bounced down to the holes near the living areas. She could see it was really busy here and the Furret was trying to organise things as she shouted and snorted that Sofi was coming her way.

Sofi hurried up to the top, almost squeaking in surprise when her nose came right to the big nose of a Zigzagzoon that she knew from the thieves guild. It was waiting for her and she was quick to point to the huge amount of food coming in that water guild members were already bringing down. She mentioned to them to state that they were hired to help and just bring it down and she gave them instructions of where they would be and what would be happening around them. The badger-like creature grinned wickedly and nodded its head, hurrying over to where the other beings were waiting as Sofi hooked up some heavy bags of bread and then hopped down the tunnels with it.

“Sofi… there you are… you and I need to talk, Missy.” As soon as Sofi had gotten into the tunnel she’d been shocked when it was not the stuffy Furret that was upset with her, but it was Pristine! Seeing the canine-seal being slouching there with a scowl upon her face, Sofi grimaced and yet she had no choice but to hop over with an anxious expression as she lifted a paw to wave at her in greeting, when instead Pristine straightened up. “I heard that you suggested this to Seth and it took on a life of its own…”

“I did? I think I mentioned how fun it would be if we all got along and did some training together, I never said anything about a tournament.” Sofi stated, but for some reason the name upon the tongue of the being in front of her just made Sofi’s fur ripple in frustration. She’d like Seth and Pyro and both of them had been too good to hang around with a female like her that used them so poorly! It made Sofi almost a little confrontational as Pristine gave a soft giggle then gave a low sound almost like she was preparing her vocal cords for a song before swatting her flippers in the air.

“You did a marvellous job, now my beloved Seth will be able to come and visit me without having to sneak around. I should thank you for making it easier for me and him to enjoy ourselves without having to watch out for the Arcanine… but I’m still very upset over what happened last time!” Pristine stated, wagging her flippers and then bounding off down the hall to where she was hoping to meet with her boyfriend. The other beasts that had listened in just continued to move on without care, but Sofi was standing there looking rather upset with herself when suddenly, she felt a soft paw pat her shoulder.

“I think… in her own way… that’s the best sort of compliment you’d ever get from Pristine. I’m sorry though Sofi, it sounds like you’d stepped on a Voltorb in that one! But if it was your suggestion, I can only say you’ve impressed me once again!” Sofi turned about, noticing with relief that it was Marcien that was talking to her and not Valerius as she had feared. She hopped about to look at the Vaporeon, beaming in delight and thanking him for his kindness before there was an odd pink sheen on the beautiful blue cheeks of the canine-water being. “Well… uh… what have you got to do?”

“Oh… I’ve just been asked to help out here get the food down, what about you? Will you be performing?” Sofi questioned, but on the inside she started to get a little nervous. She needed the top Pokémon like Marcien here to be able to actually battle and be distracted enough that no one was going to get killed amongst the thieves… or caught! Cricket could be blamed for the thieves getting in during the battles and with him being in her father’s care still, Sofi had a solid alibi and then would have a solid lead towards the dinosaur’s pasture for stolen items… but it needed no one to know who was involved.

“Oh… well…” Marcien was blushing and looking rather awkward about the thought as various beings he’d never seen before were pouring down the passage with food. The Furret was ordering them around without a second look but Marcien had to admit he was more than a little concerned by these strangers in their guild. But he was distracted by the question and the fact that they might be from the fighting guild and yet, he looked to Sofi with a nervous twitching of his cheek frills. “Well… I suppose if you’d…”

“There you are Sofi! I was hoping to find you around, I just saw the Primamarina stomping about, such a diva, she mentioned something about you. Pyro’s distracting her thankfully but, you know I was looking forward to hanging out with you again.” The familiar form of Seth the Lucario filled the room and Marcien was silenced, staring at him in a little discomfort as Sofi waved her paw to the blue and black hound-like figure as he stepped over. He grasped hold of her shoulders and pulled her in for a hug, his paws stroking down her back and Seth eyed the way Marcien looked upset by his actions before he pulled back. “So… you’re going to sing my praises when I win, right?”

“Aaah… I will certainly be interested to see you fighting... but maybe Pristine won’t appreciate my enthusiasm...” Sofi began, feeling awkward to have this conversation with Marcien right beside her. But Seth pulled her against him and then whispered into her ears.

“She’s no longer my priority... but… you know Sofi…” Seth pressed in closer, his tongue probing out of the corner of his mouth as he continued to make a point of stroking her back. It made Sofi blush heavily as she felt it and then she noticed the way Marcien was looking oddly tense about it too. Sofi looked to Seth as he gave her a smirk and then kissed her nose, making her give a hiccup. “…maybe you wanna be my number one instead?”

“Uh… I… I…” Sofi began, feeling oddly weak and nervous with how Seth was acting around her in front of the one Pokémon she really wanted the attention of. To her great surprise, it was the Vaporeon who acted first, giving a firm cough and straightening up, pushing his chest forward and glowering at the figure. Seth had to let go of Sofi, stepping back a little in frustration as he curled his lips at the water beast as he glowered back.

“Actually…” Marcien then stepped forward, moving between Seth and Sofi as he seemed to eye up the fighter. The two canine beings wrinkled their lips and glowered at one another; she was more than a little scared as she felt the aggression sparking between them as Marcien then cleared his throat firmly. “Sofi’s already agreed to support my battle today.”

Sofi had not recalled doing that, but it certainly got a chuckle from Seth as he smirked and then stepped back to rub his chin. He seemed to eye the Vaporeon up for a moment before sensing the confusion on Sofi’s face. He guessed she probably liked this guy and this guy probably liked her, but was too stuck up perhaps to actually understand just how unbelievably dumb he was being in this moment. He then chuckled heartily as he brought his muzzle right up to the other’s with a growl.

“Alright then, how about we make a friendly wager then?” Seth smirked and Marcien pulled back with a slight grimace. He was not sure he liked where this was going but Seth was looking confident and towards Sofi too. In fact, he was looking to her almost as if he was showing off again as he chuckled and then prodded Marcien’s nose. “How about… you beat me in battle and I’ll back off, but I beat you and Sofi considers joining our guild? Crush would love it!”

“WHAT!” Both Sofi and Marcien stated it, but the Vaporeon said it with such aggression that it almost made the Buizel jump in surprise. Her head spun to stare at the blue figure that was soon curling his lip and then turned to look at her. His aggression was something she’d never expected, but it was a little exciting as Marcien then gave a snort.

“Fine… but there’s no way I will lose Sofi!” Marcien stated, which made Seth give a snigger as if the being had revealed a little too much in that. Sofi had to flush; she was not expecting that he would dare say such a thing and yet it made her heart flutter in delight. She looked more happily towards the Vaporeon, her eyes shining in delight and then Marcien gulped as he realised his words and then lowered his frills with an anxious thought. “Uh… well… we were hoping to do that big mission, it would be a shame to lose a valuable partner before we had a chance to work together…”

“Whatever… you try and hide your feelings, why not… but this should be fun.” Seth grinned in delight, stepping back to Sofi’s side before kissing her cheek and giving her two tails a playful tug as he began to stroll off with ease. Sofi was bright red and embarrassed, she had only had the reactions from Seth before because she’d used her pheromones, hadn’t she? She certainly had not expected that reaction from Marcien and yet she was very happy as he nudged her onwards, leaving the thieves to their business.

As they paced back towards the huge hall, Marcien explained that they had a lower hall that was in a dungeon beneath that was the perfect arena when practicing fighting skills. He’d explained how many had used it to try and train to take on the Charizard, hence they’d been amused by Sofi’s good luck. As they reached it, the seats around the arena had been built up and were being filled by both guilds. There was food being served at the end of each row and being passed along to whomever waved the vendor down and they were excited as they continued onwards. However, it was as Sofi settled down to watch that the real anxiety began to thump in her heart.

Through each battle, Sofi’s heart was trembling and squeezing with fear as they watched. Her entire body was fighting the urge to shake itself into a frenzy or to even faint at the pressure she felt in this moment. She bit it down and though she looked uncomfortable, the scenes below often helped to give her a voice for these treacherous sensations. She was embarrassed and frightened all at once… just one of the thieves slipping up could ruin everything and she knew damn well that they were at real risk of being discovered and she would feel the wrath of both these guilds!

As the battles went through and she began to nibble at her paw, the familiar form of the Arcanine Domin padded over to her side with a look of confusion and settled at her side. He nuzzled against her head, making her jump but drawing her out of her anxiety as she heaved a heavy sigh and found herself hugging him in thanks. The great beast blushed in surprise and though Sofi was relieved that the head of security was here and would know she had not done anything, she realised she’d have to give an excuse for this because several eyes were watching as she gave a beautiful smile.

“I was worried that you were going to miss out Domin, I would have thought that being the head of security for the guild, you’d want your chance to show off that impressive flamethrower ability of yours!” Sofi cooed, releasing just the tiniest dose of her Charm and Attract to tease his nose and make the big beast gulp heavily in surprise and excitement. His eyes widened as he looked down at the beautiful little Buizel before turning his head back to the arena where two beings were fighting and then noticing that Pyro was the next champion to step forward.

“How about you watch two top fire Pokémon battle it out?” He grinned and Sofi looked up at him in surprise for a moment, before nodding her head eagerly and clapping her hands. The big striped beast then puffed out his chest and trotted to the side, leaping down to the edge of the arena where Valerian was lounging opposite Crush on a seeming throne. They were watching a Sandshrew battling a Squirtle, it should have been a forgone conclusion, but the Sandshrew knew how to leap and avoid the water and it was obvious he’d worked hard to acclimatise himself to the water.

“You were looking cute up there with little Sofi, Domin… what’s on your mind?” The foxy figure bent his head down to face the Arcanine as Domin looked straight towards Pyro and Valerian gave a grin. He looked to who was lined up amongst his own guild members and quickly requested if they would permit Domin to face the other fire beast. It caused a little ripple of discomfort, but quickly they agreed as Valerian turned to Domin. “You’re the second person trying to impress Sofi with these battles… it’s rather cute.”

“Marcien finally trying to make a display of liking her?” The beast growled softly, though he was annoyed that anyone else would be trying to get such attention from Sofi. Valerian though was giving the sort of smirk to say that he knew much more than the other did and yet, he nodded his head and, as the Sandshrew just managed to knock the Squirtle down, Valerian waved a paw to Crush and the figure bobbed his head. The great beast pointed to his guild members as the winner and there was a great cry of delight from the crowd as they clapped their hands in delight.

The winner was taken aside to have food, water, treatment along with the loser but also given a little portion of treasure that Crush and Valerian had combined for the battle winners. Everyone was excited, it had been an exciting fight that they’d all been pleased to see and yet there was a sudden look of anxiety upon Sofi’s face as she watched Pyro step forward and then Domin. She was feeling very awkward to have caused such a situation, but she looked out towards Seth and the back and the excited expression upon his face.

Was this going to be a good battle?

“Here’s Domin, security head for the Water Guild and a fire Pokémon… he’s been looking for a decent chance to show off his worth and I hope you, Pyro of the Fighting Guild, will find him a great challenge.” Valerian had stood up and called out, making everyone gasp and hush down as they prepared for the battle. The great Arcanine stepped forward, his fur bristling as he looked towards his opponent and the Blaziken stepped forward with a smirk upon his face as he looked towards the other.

The two beings waited to hear Crush thump his fist into the rock to announce the beginning of the fight, before the pair began to snarl, growl and start to pace around the arena floor. Their fiery fur was seemingly ablaze, rigid with their excitement and eagerness to fight as they eyed each other up, showing off their vicious fangs as they circled in expectation. Each one was on tenterhooks, which would make the first move that would decide everything? Their bodies were excited and with Sofi’s eyes locked upon them, they were both eager to prove themselves.

As their eyes locked, the two beings exuded and aura of violent flames before they roared and then launched forward. Both males hurried at one another, eyes filled with the same fire that seemed to engulf their bodies. The onlookers flinched, heat pouring off the pair of beasts as they launched towards one another, ready to wound as Domin and Pyro slammed into one another. The pair reared up, fire pouring off them as they wrestled up onto their hindlegs, gripping each other tightly and swaying one another back and forth. Their lips were curled, their nostrils wrinkled and their vicious teeth on display as they snarled and growled in utter fury!

The two figures snapped their teeth at one another, Pyro’s neck was longer and he strained forward, snatching his teeth around Domin’s fluff! Pyro’s teeth snatched and ripped forward, snarling until Domin’s head dropped down and he chomped onto the top of Pyro’s head. They released one another from the bites and then punched back with their paws, leaning back enough to start flailing. The pair were soon kicking and slapping at each other, snarling and growling in fury at each other as they slapped and punched at each other.

The audience were giddy, they were getting to see an exciting battle with two heavy weight fire Pokémon that were clearly capable of a really bloody battle but were instead using their body weight and strength to fight each other. They could have cooked the entire audience with their flames, but it was clear that they were being careful because they knew this was a fight between them without the need for anyone else to get involved. It was exciting as the pair pushed each other apart, dropping down onto the arena floor and then spinning about one another, darting to the edges to get more strength into a jump! They rushed each other, jumping from the stone sides and slicing past each other, their claws cutting each other and their teeth raking against each other!

When they landed on the other side, blood was visible for the first time and it was clear to see the pair were rather well matched. Domin stood firmly, turning around and showing that there was now a red streak over one black stripe on his shoulder and a scratch to his cheek. He was smirking thoughtfully, turning and licking the top of his shoulder before turning around to look at Pyro expectantly. The other being was standing there and panting in frustration, his red shoulder oozing where a firm snap had caught him and a chunk of fur obviously taken from where the claws of the Arcanine had scratched him.

Pyro did not turn to look towards his enemy, instead he lifted his head upwards to look towards where Sofi was. He was eager to see her opinion and the obvious concern she was showing made him excited. He grinned happily and turned around, suddenly releasing a fireball towards the Arcanine, only for a flamethrower to hold it back! The two fire beasts then snarled and growled at one another again, Pyro squatting down with a paw out and his feet bent and ready to battle one another. Domin licked his lips, he was eager and so he rushed towards Pyro, knowing full well this being was going to jump over him! Pyro waited, took the charge and jump upwards, only to get blasted from behind by a headbutt that threw him into the ground.

The Arcanine stopped mid-gallop and launched upwards, throwing himself backwards and into Pyro’s back. He head-butted him hard, knocking him aside before spinning and landing neatly on his paws. Pyro landed with a grunt of pain into the dust of the arena, growling and sneering before he pulled himself up, his back aching but he was ready for another battle. He squatted, ready for more battle until Crush lifted a paw, causing them to freeze as he announced Domin the winner and Pyro gave a snarl.

“WHAT!” The Blaziken snarled, spinning around and turning to his guild master, immediately starting a protest as Domin sat down calmly. It was enough to make every eye stare and all ears strain forward, eager to know what would happen next. It was an exciting moment and one that made Sofi’s heart ease. She did not know what the pair of them had been fighting over or why they’d both seemed to stare at her throughout, but when Oswald had settled down next to her with a sigh, she’d been distracted and smiled at him.

“You look tired, just finished setting everything up?” She questioned the big purple Skunktank as he grinned at her thoughtfully. He sat his big form down beside her, looking her up and down with a little interest and yet, the Buizel lowered her head in anxiety. She was not too keen on Oswald looking at her like that, but he had still been useful and when he gave a soft chuckle, he was quick to beam down at her.

“Yeah… all sorted, had lots of helpers too. I couldn’t believe the fighting guild brought in so many useful beings to help out with this. They really were more prepared than I thought!” Oswald chuckled thoughtfully. But as he spoke, one of the beings from the Fighting Guild sitting near them twitched their ears. The big Houndoom turned around to look at the big cat-like creature in confusion and curled his lips, utterly astounded and Sofi and Oswald looked at her in confusion as she gave a grunt.

“We didn’t bring anyone extra, they said to use the guys you had hired…” The black and tan being growled, her great horns looking as dangerous as her demeanour as Sofi gulped and Oswald turned to look back and forth between them in anxiety. No one noticed Sofi’s anxiety, but the two beings were quick to realise that something must have gone wrong and they were looking down towards the field as Sofi grimaced.

“We have to tell Domin!” She bounded passed them, leaping down towards the stage with the Houndoom and Oswald bouncing after her to talk to the Furret that was arranging the beasts to hand out the refreshments. Sofi knew that this being was not going to listen to her and that she was the perfect being to talk to in front of the others and prove that Sofi had tried but what not be believed. In fact, she knew she had to be careful because the thieves would have only just started looting right now and she needed to buy them more time as she leapt to Mona’s side and tapped her shoulder. “Mona! Mona! We need to tell Domin, there’s a problem… there’s people moving around the guild that aren’t from the guild!”

“Yes Sofi… they’re called the fighting guild…” Mona turned to look at her, heaving a sigh of frustration and wagging her big long plush tail in the Buizel’s face. She was not interested in having a conversation with a youngster she thought was an idiot and yet Sofi tapped at her again. Mona gave a groan of frustration, turning around with a rippling hiss through her fur as she narrowed her eyes towards Sofi as she pulled back nervously. “Look, we’re about to have a fight between Marcien and Seth… it’ll be really interesting so sit down and watch.”

“But… but the fighting guild said they didn’t bring anyone…”

“SOFI!” Mona snapped, the crowd just about drowning out how loud and vicious it was as the Furret launched onto her, knocking Sofi onto her backside. The Furret’s banded tail was wagging about furiously, she was sneering down at the little female in fury and she snarled at her. “Go and sit down… now!”

“That’s alright Mona… I’ll just take her back to her seat.” Oswald stated, gently hooking Sofi up although the Houndoom next to them was staring in disbelief at this attitude. She turned towards Sofi, snuffling at her to ensure that the youngster was unharmed and Sofi apologised to the stranger. She insisted that Mona was just very busy and not normally like this, but Oswald gave a grimace of frustration over the matter. He knew damn well that Mona picked on Sofi for no reason at all. But before they could try and figure out another way to go about this situation, their eyes were drawn to the arena as the two big males stepped out.

“I overheard the boys saying something about this deciding if someone was joining our guild or not…” The Houndoom questioned in fascination but Oswald pointed a paw towards Sofi, behind her back of course. It actually made the female stare at the little Buizel in disbelief as she tilted her head to the side and then gave a grin. “Don’t tell me… you’re the one who not only pulled Pyro out of the dragon’s mouth with Seth but actually took down that Charizard? Heh… I hope Seth wins, you’ll be a great addition to the guild.”

“Yes but… what about the strangers walking around the guild?” Sofi whimpered, though their lack of interest in the situation was actually incredibly useful. With this she knew that the warning was made to everyone, she had witnesses to how Mona had reacted stupidly and the stubborn furret might actually get told off for being so rude and things would get stolen! It could not be more perfect than this, but Sofi was more than a little concerned about this battle. She did not want to move to the other guild, especially when she was sure that taking out the Tyrantrum would solve a lot of the supply problems and she needed Marcien for then!

“That can wait… it’s not like they can do anything up there.” Oswald grunted, clearly quite clueless about the level of danger the guild was in. But Sofi was patient as she was settled back into the seat and the three of them turned their head to watch the battle commence. Sofi had not wanted to be the cause of it, but she could not help but feel a tingling inside at the fact that Marcien was actually fighting for her sake… maybe he did like her?

The Vaporeon and the Lucario eyed each other up, when the signal was given they charged right at each other. As the Lucario went in to punch and kick, the canine dodged and set a watergun blast at him. The Lucario used his abilities to punch the water into steam in the air, his motions so fast the speed separated the great splash into something smaller. It was impressive to see but Marcien had expected it and used it as a shield to spin around and jump in the air. He’d tucked into himself, looking to land right beside the Lucario and Seth turned to face where he would land, only for that vicious tail to whip out and slap him in the face.

Seth stepped back, his eyes spinning a moment before another jet of water slammed into his chest, knocking him off balance for a moment before he jumped away from it. Marcien cut the spout off quickly, he knew he could not create any moment where he could be vulnerable and swiftly he darted about as the fists and feet were aimed at him again. He dodged as best he could, practically hopping from side to side until he made a mistake in thinking he could predict the next move. A firm kicked caught him in the shoulder and he could not recover for the next as he was kicked backwards and rolled in the sand.

But Marcien then rolled to the wall, slamming his feet against it and using it to launch upwards into the air, but quickly Seth threw out a water pulse to smack into the Vaporeon and knock him off balance. Marcien dodged it, but as soon as he was about to release hydro-pump, the Lucario was already up in the air and his chance to hit him was missed. Seth suddenly grasped something to use rock smash against him, crashing into the foxy creature’s back and slamming him down into the sand before landing beside him neatly with a smirk.

There were howls and yowls and yips of excitement from the crowd, pleased to see the pair fighting so well and yet Sofi’s eyes swelled in anxiety. She could not believe that Marcien was being defeated by this fool and yet, Oswald read her face and gave a smirk. He patted her shoulder gently and then gave an expression that said she needed to watch carefully. Sofi looked as Marcien stood up, licking his bloodied lips and then grinned in amusement as Seth lunged at him again and Marcien let him run at him as he lifted as paw as if to say he was injured but his eyes were glittering.

He'd just been testing the Lucario out the whole time, they had no idea how powerful hydro pump and water gun combined could be for a Vaporeon and Marcien could work them both together to create a torrent that would not only knock Seth out, but bring him close to being drowned. There was a reason the stands were elevated after-all and as the Lucario seemed to start building up as if he might do a hyper beam, something he’d learnt obviously, Marcien suddenly spurted with water gun right into Seth’s eyes and then hit him hard in the chest with another firmer hit!

As Seth was knocked off balance, the Vaporeon launched another water gun out, pinning the other against the wall to stun him for a moment. Seth’s eyes were spinning but he pulled himself upwards before then staring as Marcien was then pumping out as much water as possible. The creature was filling the floor with water and when Seth growled and then launched forward again to try and knock him out, Marcien turned to slamming him with the water gun!

Seth fell back into water that had started to fill up the arena, he began to splash and thrash for a moment to roll onto his feet and get up. More water was being pumped into the floor and he sneered as he straightened up and prepared himself to punch out again. He charged at Marcien and the Vaporeon looked to spray him again, but Seth crashed his fists together enough to create a momentary blast of energy to form a shield and knock the water jet to the side. Marcien did not stop pumping water thought and as Seth rushed to go and punch him, the foxy beast leapt upwards and then pumped more water down onto Seth.

As Seth slowed up, the torrent pushed him downwards, dipping him underwater and trying to hold him down as the weight of the water drummed down onto him. Seth found himself having to hold his breath as tightly as he could, the heavy water from the pump pushing him down onto his chest to try and make him faint. He growled but lost bubbles and hurried to try and roll away from the attack. He growled and pulled his head out of the water, gasping loud and then getting the surprise of his life as a firm head cracked into his own and he ended up floating on his back… stunned with a Vaporeon’s sneering face staring at him.

“WHOA! MARCIEN WON!”

Everyone hollered out in delight, utterly overwhelmed and delighted by the fact the top of the water guild had taken out such a promising male. In fact, they had not expected to see such a good fight and to see a true knock out, but it was enough for them all to then look about each other in excitement. It was obvious that the battles were over as Hilda the wartortle then waded in to hook Seth up and carry him over to a Chancey hired to help them out in this battle.

Everyone was beaming in delight, they had never thought to have such a wonderful match or such a wonderful idea and quickly, Oswald beckoned everyone over to enjoy the food. Hilda then pulled the grating open to let the water flush out from the arena as Crush had hollered out in delight that he’d never had such a wonderful day in ages. Everyone from the guilds were soon mingling and chatting away in delight, but Sofi’s eyes were locked upon Marcien as his forehead was bleeding and a few of the females were trying to help him out but he was begging them to leave him be.

Sofi took a deep breath and then bolted down to be by his side, grimacing in anxiety as she noticed the wound and then he beckoned everyone to back off. He was smiling as the Buizel stepped to his side and then gently used a handkerchief to wipe gently at his wounded head as he looked at her with shining, loving eyes. She was blushing heavily in surprise, the way he seemed to be leaning closer to her and Sofi was not sure how best to respond. Did he want something from her? She was blushing as she then thought to lean forward and press her lips to his, making them both blush in surprise before she beamed at him.

“Thank you… for making it so I don’t have to leave.” Sofi stated with a blush brighter than the blood on Marcien’s forehead as he hurried to press his paw to it and continued to grimace in surprise at the way others were watching them in interest. But as Sofi heard the Chancey bring Seth around, she blushed and knew she had to at least apologise to him too as she gave Marcien a departing hug and then bounded over to where the Lucario was looking utterly furious with himself. Sofi got to him and then grimaced. “Sorry you lost there… but you did a good job and… I don’t think Marcien’s had such a good fight in so long either…”

“I can’t believe I lost to a water type… it’s… how? I can’t believe it!” Seth was snarling in fury, how had this happened to him? He had never lost to someone like that before and worse, he’d been acting all cocky earlier too! The embarrassment mingled in with his rage as he sneered and hissed slightly before realising that Sofi was beside him and giving him a slightly anxious expression of concern. She wondered if he was really alright and yet, he had to suddenly gulp back the upset and try to stay cool. “It’s cool… just means I took him for granted, I’ve gotta be less cocky in future…”

“I’m glad to hear it… but you really cheered everyone up and got them together, Seth. You might not have won but… you certainly made it clear that we’re all better being friends and, I might come and visit more often.” Sofi stated, not releasing her pheromones because she could see quite easily that the incident with the Charizard had actually gotten her more of his attention than any of her pheromones. In fact, as he made a vain attempt to smile as if to get over it, she leant forward to kiss his nose with a smile. “Thank you, Seth.”

With that, Sofi then bounded over to where the food was being served and everyone was completely distracted. She’d done her best to raise the issue, she’d made a point to other that the Furret was the one telling them not to worry… so whatever happened she could easily escape the blame. She just hoped that they were done with quickly upstairs and that they’d stolen some good things, especially as she needed to make sure her father would feel proud enough of her he might just let her go and do her own thing with someone like Marcien.

As the party continued and Sofi was eating eagerly, she was interrupted by Crush slipping over to her side and praising her for the good idea. She’d whispered to him not to bring it up so that he could take the credit and the great Chesnaught had given her a sort of smirk as if he was utterly proud of her. It was more than a little embarrassing, but she was thankfully he understood it all the same. As he’d then sat to eat with her and talk about whether she might just join their guild anyway, Marcien had returned to her side with a curious look upon his face and she’d turned to him with a smile.

“Something on your mind?” Sofi had beamed, only for Marcien to blush and then beckon her to follow him off somewhere. She’d smiled at him, left Crush with a pat on the arm and a gentle wafting of her pheromones, before she’d then bounded after Marcien. The Vaporeon then led her up the passage, beckoning her to join him in his room so that they could talk about something that he felt was very important. It made Sofi’s body tremble as they climbed up the stairs and Marcien took in a deep breath.

“To explain it in brief… I thought about what you said about the Tyrantrum’s place… he really is a problem that needs to be dealt with and… if it leads to a valley outside of the dungeons that we can use to our advantage, then we’ve got nothing to lose… well, apart from our lives of course.” Marcien blushed at that, he had not meant to sound so straightforward and even potentially pessimistic with that statement, but Sofi had nodded her head wisely, she got it and she was excited by the opportunity he was presenting. But right on cue… as they entered they spotted one last Goodra galloping past them with a sac full of goodies and Sofi rushed after it as she barked to Marcien to fetch the others and he turned… everything was going to plan.
