Life with Lugia 2: Legendary Lover

By shadowlugia249

Author's Note: A rather interesting picture on Fur Affinity sparked this well-deserved sequel. 'Nuff said. Enjoy!

My name is Alex Schaefer and I'm a major Pokémon fan... wait... technically, that's not entirely true. I like Pokémon, but there's actually only one that has caught my attention more than anything else. Out of the near 500 Pokémon in the "world", there was only one that was, is and always would be my all-time favorite. And it just so happened that that Pokémon was a "Legendary", of all things, which were some of the most powerful of them all.

What am I going on about? I guess you deserve to know. My all-time favorite Pokémon is Number 249 and is a Psychic-and-Flying Type by the name of Lugia. My idol, my deity and (basically) my god was the Beast of the Sea itself, who made its debut in "Pokémon the Movie 2000" and was made official in the second generation of Pokémon in the Gold, Silver and Crystal Versions. Ever since I saw him for the first time in the movie, I was automatically hooked. Lugia would go on to become my very way of life in a way.

The god-like "bird" that is Lugia is truly the most beautiful Pokémon I had seen to date. And while most other people say that Milotic, who appeared in the third generation, was the most beautiful, for some reason, it just couldn't compare to Lugia. For one thing, Lugia was the only "bird" that could swim as well as it could fly, much less breathe underwater. Another thing was that it was the only bird that didn't have any "feathers" so to speak but was just as capable in the air with its flipper-like wings without them. And judging from how powerful its control over the weather as well as its almighty Aeroblast were, Lugia was truly a creature that you didn't want to get angry. It was truly a powerhouse Pokémon that I admired with every ounce of my being.

But just because Lugia was powerful, that didn't mean that it was cruel. If anything, Lugia was one of the kindest and most intelligent Pokémon in existence. In the movie, it was capable of telepathic speech and in the few episodes of "Pokémon Master Quest" that it appeared in, it was one of the kindest and gentlest creatures in the world. Its offspring, which was named Silver (ain't that a co-inky-dink?), was smart and kind enough to play with a young boy like he was his best friend. Naturally, this made me extremely jealous that he got to be friends with a baby Lugia whereas I was craving that kind of friend for myself. I would have given absolutely anything to have a Lugia as a friend and it drove me nuts every time I watched those episodes and the movie at how capable, intelligent and friendly Lugia could be when it was in a good mood. I mentioned that last part because on more than one occasion, I've seen an adult Lugia get so furious that powerful thunderstorms threatened to destroy the world. It was no wonder that it had to hide itself underwater to keep its powers in check.

Still, even though I couldn't have a Lugia as a friend in the real world, I still did my best to make sure that I had its presence all around me. I had collected a number of Lugia-based items such as toys, music and even a large number of pictures that I got off of the Internet. You'd be surprised at how popular Lugia is in the world. There have even been a number of Lugia PT Cruisers in circulation for crying out loud! Now that's something that only the truly famous Pokémon could ever do! But since I didn't have the money nor the know-how to handle a full-sized car, I had to settle with what few Lugia paraphernalia I could find and afford.

But even my own material possessions could not compare to what was in store for me on my 21st birthday...

I had just gotten home from my parent's house after a rather profitable birthday party. I had gotten a number of items such as a couple of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards that I wanted, a pair of Pokémon movies, a fresh ink cartridge for my printer and various other items that I had wanted at the last moment. My parents always tended to come through for me on such special holidays as long as I gave a little back on other ones as well.

I had just walked in the door at a little past 7:00 PM and was in the process of putting my new things away when I heard the doorbell ring. I was both amazed at the timing and curious at the situation since I wasn't expecting anyone else for the rest of the day. The mail had come and gone and there wasn't anyone else in the immediate area that would know me enough to walk up to my door. Curious, I abandoned what I was doing and walked over to check the door.

Amazingly, there was no one there, but for some reason, someone had left me a large present on my doorstep, which was wrapped in shining silver wrapping paper and garnished with a navy-blue ribbon tied around all the sides and topped with a neat bow. In a way, it reminded me a lot of a Lugia's natural coloring, which might have been nothing more than a coincidence. Regardless, I looked around to see if anyone had left it here, but finding no one, I picked it up and flipped over the parchment-colored tag to look at it

It read: "Happy 21st Birthday, Alex Schaefer! From S.I. and P.I."

"S.I. and P.I."? The initials were completely alien to me since I did not know of initials with those kinds of initials. Apparently, they knew me rather well but were unwilling to give me the benefit of their full names. All I could assume was that they were both close relatives but little else. Whoever they were, they had obviously sent me a present for my birthday and had left it at that.

I shook the present lightly close to my ear so as to get an idea of what was inside, but apart from a small muffled rattling, I couldn't picture what was inside. So with that out of the way, I took the present inside and shut the door to go open it.

It seemed like someone had gone to a lot of trouble to get me a present. The wrapping paper was truly top-quality and seemed to have a kind of "elastic" feel to it. The cushiony material was soft and slightly flesh-like to the touch and always seemed to bounce back whenever I lifted my fingers from it. It was like it was crafted from actual skin instead of paper, which reminded me a lot of... nah. The ribbon wasn't too special apart from the fact that it seemed very smooth and expensive. It seemed a shame to desecrate such a beautiful present, so I decided to carefully pick it apart so that everything came out in close to one piece.

There didn't appear to be any tape, but the material was still holding together somehow. Still, I took extreme care to disassemble the folded material after carefully unwrapping the ribbon. The material parted way easily and soon, I had a perfect six-square-foot square of the soft, silvery, fleshy material laid out on my living room floor. Amazingly, the material practically like how I imagined a Lugia's skin would feel - soft, smooth, taut, spongy and rubbery with a slight give to it. It was the exact same color and was just over a quarter inch thick. It was almost like it was Lugia skin. This thought kind of scared me since not only was it an impossible thought, but it was kind of sick to think that someone had possibly killed a Lugia to produce this material. But then again, it could have been a kind of synthetic material - a really good one as well - and my concerns may have been nothing more than speculation.

Now that I had gotten that out of my system, I turned my attention to the box that had been wrapped with the material. It was a simple white cardboard box that was unusually thick and durable and seemed rather ordinary. I saw that the top flaps were folded in a way that one side of each one was under/over the next one. This kind of fold was rather difficult to pull off without making permanent creases in the material, but somehow, someone had done the difficult. Careful so as not to rip it, I dismantled the fold and looked inside. There was a large amount of white cotton inside that seemed to be covering a large object in the center. And after digging into the mass of fluff, I unearthed my true present.

At first, I thought I was seeing things. This couldn't possibly be real; not by a long shot. It was one thing to dream of something like this, but seeing it in real life was truly an impossible feat. This had to be a dream.

But it wasn't. A foot-long silver-white egg - which was lashed with navy-blue stripes - was underneath all of the cotton and now laid in my hands. And since I knew that no mortal creature on earth could produce such an amazing egg, I had a sneaking suspicion that I knew what this was, but I didn't dare think it in case I was wrong (and I doubted I was this time).

Setting the egg down, I looked back into the box for some kind of explanation as to what I was dealing with. There had to be a note or some instructions or something that could explain this anomaly. Incredibly, there was. A folded piece of yellowed parchment was on the bottom of the box under all of the remaining cotton. I was worried about what I was dealing with here and was unsure if I should have opened it in case I got in over my head. But I had come too far to stop now, so I figured that I might as well go all the way.

As I unfolded the parchment, a second piece of paper dropped out of it and fluttered to the floor face-down. It appeared to be a simple piece of paper with some kind of picture on the other side. Curious, I picked it up and flipped it over.

I had to blink and shake my head hard to make sure that I wasn't seeing things. But when I looked at it again, the image was unchanged. It was a custom-drawn picture of a Lugia, but there was a large amount of what appeared to be pinkish-purple slime covering a majority of it. Even stranger, the "slime" had a small, simple face on it in the bottom-right corner of the picture that looked a lot like a Ditto, which was a shape-shifting Pokémon from the first generation that most people used in the current versions to breed Pokémon when they couldn't produce a suitable mate. This was odd since the games were very strict that you could not breed a Lugia or virtually any Legendary Pokémon (and some normal ones) to produce a Lugia egg, even with a Ditto. This was a rather disappointing fact since I knew of a lot of Pokémon that I would be willing to use to produce eggs and get a copy of them.

If the presence and positions of the Lugia and Ditto were curious, then it was what the misshapen Ditto was doing to the Lugia that was truly bizarre. For one thing, there was a short, thick, reddish-purple growth coming from the Lugia's groin that told me that this was a very dirty picture. The "length" was partially covered in the Ditto's slime, but further examination showed me that it wasn't done there. A screw-shaped rod was shoved up the Lugia's concealed tail hole that seemed to be some bizarre form of rape. The Lugia also had a frightened look on its face with its tongue hanging out to the side as it looked down towards the perverted Ditto.

I wasn't sure what to make of this bizarre and pornographic picture, but when I flipped it back over, some of the questions that I had were answered. There was a note written in blue ink on the back that seemed to be a reference as to the picture's origin. The note read: "Legendary Breeding is Futile" by FELLARTS 2008 - FurAffinity.net"

Immediately, this all made sense. I had heard of the artist known as "FELLARTS" from my dabbling in Fur Affinity, which wasn't exactly a 100% "clean" site on the Internet. FELLARTS had been known to compose rather detailed and graphic pornographic images of various Pokémon as well as the occasional dolphin and rare "clean" picture. It was disturbing that someone had included THIS picture in with my package and I had to wonder just what was going on here.

Curious, I decided to read the note on the parchment to see what this was all about. Hopefully it contained some answers as to what the purposes of the picture and the egg were really about. The letter had been written in the same blue ink as the note on the back of the picture except that it was in a more stylish and spidery handwriting.

"Dear Mr. Alex Schaefer,

First, let us congratulate you on your 21st birthday! Now that you have officially come of age, a whole new world of possibilities has opened to you, including the ability to understand what you probably already know.

With that being said, let us get down to business. You've probably already discovered the rather graphic and pornographic picture that we have enclosed with your package. Do not be afraid; we included it for a reason. We also believe that since you are clearly of age to understand it, this will not be as disturbing as you may believe.

First off, the egg that has been enclosed with it is of a unique origin. We have been experimenting with genetic abnormalities in rare and powerful legendary creatures in the world and we have produced the first-ever "Modified Anthropomorphic Lugia". Yes, the egg that you now possess contains a young and dormant Lugia that had been "spiritually modified" when it was created. We have heard of your special connection with Lugia from our own private sources and we believe that you would be the ideal person to test our experiment for us. You might think of this as a kind of dream come true for you.

Second, we need to tell you that this is a very serious case. The successful raising of this Lugia will decide whether "Modified Anthropomorphic Legendaries" will be able to survive in this world. We need you to care for this young chick until it is old enough and strong enough to survive on its own. We also hope that you are physically, mentally and spiritually strong enough to care for and endure the Lugia's "special needs". If you are successful, you will be rewarded with a prize beyond your wildest dreams.

But despite the Lugia's "conditions", we want to tell you that it is not as bad as you may believe as well as tell you a few of its "traits" so you will be able to adjust to your new responsibility. While similar to the Lugia in the enclosed picture, this Lugia contains female characteristics, which include both physical and mental "bonuses". She is a very loyal and capable creature and we know that she will do her best to become your best friend. Her name will be left in your hands, but we can tell you that if this experiment is to be a success, you must be willing to engage in some possibly unnatural events to ensure her survival. We can also tell you that as a "natural" Lugia, she does not require any special diets or supplements. Even at an infantile age, she will be able to inform you of what her desires are and rely on you to supply them for her until she is old enough to function on her own. Finally, as the Lugia matures, we suggest that you make a note of how she grows and compare it to a picture that we believe is still on your computer at this very moment. As a "Modified" Lugia, we are trying to adjust how her body grows and create an entirely new breed of anthropomorphic creatures.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, Alex Schaefer. You might never have this opportunity again, so we would suggest that you take advantage of this rare event and learn to roll with the punches. And in the event that you are successful, you will know powers and happiness unlike anything you have ever witnessed before.

Good Luck!

Strato and Plexadonn Incendus

Father and Son Dragon Gods"

This all seemed too good to be true. Not only was I going to be able to raise a "Modified Anthro Lugia", but I was going to be rewarded in the end in the event that I was successful. It really didn't matter that the Lugia was going to be "handicapped" in some way anymore. As long as I had the opportunity to raise a creature that was not supposed to exist in this world, it was just fine with me.

I guessed that I should have been worried that the picture and the Lugia were going to be eerily similar in terms of "abilities", but for some reason, I didn't seem to care about that right now. The very fact that I was going to raise a Lugia at all meant the world to me. I just hoped that it/she liked me when "she" hatched and that I made a legendary friend out of the deal.

Now the only question was: how on earth was I supposed to hatch it? I had never raised a Lugia before, modified or otherwise, so I was kind of at a loss for what to do. Was I supposed to keep it warm or possibly cool? Was I supposed to submerge it in water or keep it under a heat lamp? The note hadn't exactly been specific on how to hatch it, so my information was somewhat limited at the moment.

Regardless, I picked up the egg -- which was surprisingly light and cool to the touch -- and sat down on a chair to look at it with longing. It was hard to believe that such a gentle yet powerful creature had basically landed in my lap and was sleeping in the vessel before me. Everything that I had ever wanted was literally sitting in my lap and was on the verge of revealing itself; I just wished that I knew how. I had always wanted to have a friend as kind and as legendary as Lugia, but the very rules of reality and the lack of magic in the world had always prevented me from even coming close. But now, I had the very means to have the friend that I had always wanted. And as I stared long and hard at the egg that laid on my lap, my own personal desires to obtain that friend seemed to radiate from me and be absorbed by the egg. I could almost see it hatching right before my very eyes...

...

...

...wait a minute... it was hatching! A thin spider-webbed crack had appeared on the egg's surface and had spread over most of the outer shell. There was a faint crunching noise coming from the egg that was accompanied by a faint squeak or possibly a purr.

I knew better than to help a young animal try and get out of its egg in the event that it got over stimulated when it got out. All I could do was watch as the egg rocked slightly in my lap. Soon, I was rewarded with a small, pointed, falcon-like head punched its way out of the egg with its eyes currently closed and the rest of its body inside it. Sure enough, it was a bona fide-y Lugian head and the mere sight of this impossible creature made me feel that there really was magic in the world.

As the Lugia turned its head blindly around, I saw it look in my direction with its eyes still closed. I had a feeling that if it was anything like the common goose that the first living thing it saw when it hatched would automatically be labeled as its "parent". But since it still had its eyes closed, it was still up in the air.

Eventually, the Lugia began to work its way out of the egg, pushing out with its various body parts before it finally tumbled out onto my lap in a dry mess of eggshells. It fumbled a little in my lab before it finally rolled around so that it could get another "look" at me with its eyes still closed. I had a feeling that even though it couldn't see me, it could still "see" me with its mental/psychic powers. It looked me up and down for a moment before it finally started to open its eyes. It took a moment, but soon, I was able to make out its soft, semi-narrow navy-blue eyes that were a little more "chibi-like" than a normal Lugia as it looked at me.

Now that it could see me for the first time, the Lugia looked me up and down with a curious expression on its face. It seemed to bond with me immediately and even nuzzled its head up against my arm, making small, cooing noises as it admired its new "parent". I even took a moment to look at it for myself so that I could remind myself about everything that I loved about Lugia.

The Lugia was barely more than a foot tall and weighed only a few pounds, which was a lot more than how big and heavy its egg had been. Its smooth, rubbery, silver-white skin was rather soft to the touch and had a little bit of give to it as I stroked it in my lap. The navy-blue parts of it were in the same places as they had always been, which included the ten flat, rectangular "plates" on its back, the twin spikes on the end of its tail and the twin pointed "masks" over its similarly-colored eyes. There was also a round, sky-blue "crest" over its belly with the usual V-shaped indentation on the top.

Almost immediately, I noticed the first part that made it a "Modified Anthro Lugia". A normal Lugia's posture was usually similar to a bird with a majority of its body leaning forward and balancing itself on its digitigrade footpaws with its wings folded against its side. This one, however, was a bit more "humanoid" than a normal Lugia. Its posture was a bit straighter than normal while its legs were longer but still digitigrade and its wings being slightly slimmer than normal. Its belly was still rounded, but in this case, its wasn't nearly as "portly" as it should have been. In fact, its torso was a bit "longer" than normal while still maintaining its smooth and round posture.

Its tail was a bit longer in scale and extended about an inch above its head when it was standing upright while its tail spikes were a bit "flatter" than normal. Its neck was about the same length when scaled down and curved forward at about the halfway point to show its pointed, falcon-like head. And getting back to its wings, they weren't really "hands", but they weren't nearly as "broad" or as "flipper-like" as they would normally be. They were just thick enough for them to be classified as both "flippers" and "hands" without being either. Basically, if you could imagine a Lugia's flipper-like wings and then thin/stretch them out without changing the layout so that they looked more like human arms and hands in a sense.

In all, the tiny Lugia's posture looked a lot like a small human child if the child had had a tail, a long, bent neck and digitigrade legs and feet. It was currently sitting on my lap in a way that it was kind of on its side with its legs stretching off to the side as it looked at me with its head and pawed at me with its "wings".

But as I was about to finish my examination of it, I spotted two features that seemed to corroborate the picture that had come with it. I spotted a small, nearly invisible fold of skin in-between its legs and on the bottom of its sky-blue crest that probably held the same reddish-purple male length that I had seen in the picture. And as the Lugia rolled over in my lap, I made a note of the tiny hole that was just below its tail that the Ditto in the picture had been shoving the screw-shaped rod up into.

However, I spotted something under the fold that held its cock that I hadn't seen in the picture. A small, quarter-inch, blue split was cut into its crotch directly in-between its legs, which told me that when combined with the male length, the Lugia could literally be classified as a "hermaphrodite". That meant that it contained both male and female reproductive organs that the picture had neglected to show. I literally had a "she-male" Lugia in my midst, but according to the note, its "true" gender was that of a female; I just had to give "her" a name.

I finished my examination of the baby Lugia and decided to try and pick it up so that I could look her directly in the eyes. Amazingly, she was willing to let me scoop her up and merely cooed at me when I brought her up to my eye level.

"Well, my little Lugian friend," I said with a smile. "What should I call you?"

The Lugia looked curiously at me and let out a small, shrill, "Maaa!!!" that didn't exactly register with me. Unsure of what to make of this, I racked my brain for a name that would supposedly suit this cute little creature.

"Let's see... how about "Sirius"?"

The Lugia looked at me for a moment and then pulled a face and let out an obnoxious "Waaa!!!" -- an obvious rejection.

"Oh... kay, then. How about... "Bubbie"?"

This didn't fly with her, either. She merely stuck out her small, pointed tongue and blew a small yet rude raspberry.

"No go, huh? What about... "Seryn"?"

At this, she didn't respond physically, but I felt an annoyed stab of red color hit my mind, which told me that that wasn't going to work, either.

"Ow... okay... I've only got one name left, so if that doesn't work, you're on your own." The Lugia listened closely. "What about "Si-ann"? It's spelled "S-I-(dash)-A-N-N, but it's pronounced like C-Y-A-N."

At this, the little Lugia chirped curiously. It wasn't a rejection, but I couldn't be sure if it was a confirmation, either.

"Si-ann? Is that who you are?"

The Lugia smiled and let out a small, satisfied squeal. I didn't have to be psychic to tell that it was a definite confirmation.

"Okay, then. "Si-ann"... my name is Alex. Do you understand me?"

It took a moment, but she eventually nodded, which told me that she was as intelligent as I had come to expect from Lugia. With a smile, I brought "Si-ann" close to me and she met me halfway to nuzzle her head up against my face, which was as soft and as smooth as silk with a definite rubbery feel to it. She seemed to be able to read my mind and was just as satisfied as I was that she now had a name.

Pulling Si-ann away from me, I stood up, which caused the eggshells that I had nearly forgotten about to clatter to the floor. Blushing slightly, I stepped around the mess and set Si-ann down on the floor to see how she would be able to move around. The 16-inch Lugia sat on the carpeted floor for a moment before pushing herself into a kind of wobbly standing position. If anything, she looked like a kind of realistic action figure with her wings at her sides at a near-identical scale. I chuckled at the little Legendary and stepped back a few paces to see what she would do. At first, Si-ann hesitated, but then she took a couple shaky steps forward on her digitigrade footpaws like a toddler taking its first official steps before stopping right in front of me.

Smiling, I knelt down and looked at her to ask her something simple. "Are you sure you can move around without me? I know that regular Lugia aren't as capable with a posture like yours."

Si-ann looked up at me and nodded with a small "mmm". I then stood back up and walked from the living room to the kitchen and waited for her to follow me. She did, even though it took her a moment to get her footing. She padded across the carpet and made a successful transfer to the linoleum floor without even faltering. She kept her wings balanced at her sides so that she was able to keep from falling over. She even cheated a little by trailing her tail on the floor to keep her from falling over backwards. But once she reached the area in front of the fridge where I was standing, she seemed to balance herself on her toes rather well without tipping over or using her tail.

I couldn't help but chuckle at the little Lugia. She really seemed to have the heart to get her through life no matter what life threw at her. "You're really something else, you know that, Si?" I said, kneeling down to pet her. "I think you and I are going to be very good friends."

Si-ann made a sound between a coo and a purr as I tickled her under her chin. She even had her mouth open slightly like a dog with a smile on her face. I suddenly remembered that the Lugia in the picture had had its mouth open with its tongue out as it was "bred", but there was nothing at the moment that suggested that she was in that kind of mood, so I let her be.

I paused in my tickling to ask Si-ann a rather innocent question. "How about we get you something to eat? I'm pretty sure that even "modified" Lugia get hungry at some point."

Si-ann pulled her tongue back in her mouth and looked up at me with a pleasant smile before nodding with a confident purr. And as though it had been waiting for me to ask her, Si-ann's stomach suddenly started making small but distinctive gurgling noises. I chuckled at her and poked her in the belly, which made her trill sheepishly and cover the area with her wings.

"I guess I timed it just right, huh? C'mon, up you go."

I scooped up the young Lugia and held her in one arm as I stood up and opened the refrigerator with the other. Si-ann was very loyal and obedient in a way that she barely moved or made any noise as the two of us scanned the fridge for something for her to eat.

I had a couple jugs of milk, a pitcher of juice, a half-package of cheese slices, some lunch meat, some fruit and juice boxes in various parts of the fridge, to name a few things. I was confident that Si-ann didn't eat a majority of this stuff, so I decided to see if I had any greens or possibly some fish fillets in the freezer. I had only watched a couple of instances where an animated Lugia had fed its child, so I was kind of making this up as I went.

On a hunch, I decided to see what Si-ann thought of a bag of "Just Lettuce" that I had bought a few days back and pulled out the unopened bag to get her opinion. "What do you think, girl? Does that look good?"

Even though the bag was unopened, Si-ann's sense of smell seemed to be powerful enough to detect the smell of the food. She let out a purring trill and squirmed restlessly in my grip, which told me that she wanted the delectable food.

"Okay! Okay, I get it! Let's get you some food! Just hold still!"

However, Si-ann was so excited to get food that she managed to worm her way out of my grip enough that she was able to flutter down to the floor by spreading her wings in the way that they were designed to. I looked down at the Lugia for a moment in surprise. Either I had been seeing things, or...

"Si... you flew!" I said in complete awe.

Si-ann turned around and looked up at me with an indecisive look. Either she was too young to understand what she had just done or she didn't seem to think of this as an accomplishment. After all, she had merely fluttered down about four feet before touching down without a single glitch. Even though the height was easily three times as high as she was, she didn't seem to have damaged anything. I guess I was overreacting, but seeing Si-ann "float" for the first time seemed to show me that even though she was "modified", parts of her Lugian blood still flowed in her veins.

Deciding not to overdo it, I took the bag of lettuce out of the fridge and hesitated for a moment before deciding to get the milk as well. Even though she was technically a "bird", I still felt that she was of mammalian decent and somehow needed milk if she was to survive.

Once the fridge was closed, I brought the items over to the counter with Si-ann following me and took out a bowl to put the lettuce into. After shaking out a fair amount of greens, I poured a small amount of milk into the bowl to give her a decent drink and lowered the bowl to the floor. Si-ann looked at the food for a moment before pulling a frown and looking up at me with an obnoxious whine.

"What's wrong, girl?" I said in confusion. "Isn't that what you wanted?"

At this, Si-ann both nodded and then shook her head, which told me that I was right about the choice of food, but I hadn't prepared it properly enough for her to eat. Now completely stumped, I squatted down and looked the little Lugia squarely in the eyes.

"Okay, girl... I know you're smart, so can you tell me how to do it right?"

Si-ann returned my staring gaze and I saw her narrow pupils adjusting slightly as a picture began to appear in my mind. She seemed to be mentally showing me how to correctly prepare her food so that she could eat it properly. I "saw" the bowl of milky lettuce appear in my mind for a moment and then it spun around at a high rate of speed before it stopped and all that was left was a kind of green, chunky soup. It seemed that she wanted her food to be mulched up at a better consistency than it currently was. But as I was about to break the connection, I saw a picture of a fish appear above the bowl before it was slowly lowered into the soup.

Once Si-ann broke the connection first, it all made sense to me. Si-ann was just a baby and was far too young to eat such big leaves of lettuce, so I figured that she wanted it blended up with a touch of fish in it to make a kind of "puree" for her consumption.

Now that I knew what to do, I took the bowl of milky lettuce and set it back up on the counter before rummaging around in the lower cupboards for a blender. After tipping the mixture into the pitcher, I went to the freezer and dug out a small frozen fish fillet and put it into the mix before commencing blending. Si-ann seemed to think that that the blender was "talking" to her and made a lot of yipping, trilling and wailing noises like a parrot normally does when there is a lot of noise around it (Author's Note: I know this from experience.). I chuckled at her antics but let her express herself the way she felt like it.

Soon, the "nutritious" mixture had been completely blended and I tipped the chunky and smelly mixture back into the bowl before bringing it back down to her level. Si-ann hesitated for a moment before looking up at me and bowing nobly before sitting down on the floor and plunging her head into the mixture to drink her nutrition. It was curious to see a Lugia with an anthro-based posture to be eating out of a bowl in this fashion, but I figured that her long and flexible neck enabled her head to reach into positions that a normal Anthro Lugia would not be able to.

I thought this because the idea of an Anthro Lugia that I was used to was distinctly different than the modified one that was sitting on the floor. In the early days of my affection for Lugia in general, I had always tried to create in my mind a smaller and more capable Lugia that would be able to walk and function like a human in general but still maintain its Lugian capabilities. Sadly, since I am not very gifted in the art of... art (go figure), I could not put my ideas onto paper in a way that I could still admire it.

But about two years after Lugia debuted, I was scanning the Internet for similar pictures when I discovered a kind of Anthro Lugia that was rather ingenious for its type. It was a picture of a rather voluptuous female Lugia complete with a thin, trim belly, hand-like wings and even a pair of impressive breasts that were ingeniously covered by part of its crest in a kind of modified bra. This female version soon became my basis of how I pictured an Anthro Lugia from then on, but after a while, I began to wonder if I couldn't do better. After all, even though Lugia was classified as "genderless" in the games, I still pictured it as having male characteristics, so I began to search for a picture of an Anthro Lugia that came close to it.

It wasn't for another two years that I found a match. While searching the infamous site "deviantART", I discovered a practically flawless picture of an Anthro Lugia drawn by one of the best Lugia artists on the Internet by the name of "Articuno" (Ironic, don't you think?). Unlike the previous attempts, that picture was practically perfect and included everything that I pictured an Anthro Lugia would have and more. It had a lean, trim and well-toned torso (with a faint but noticeable and impressive six-pack, I might add), tall, lean, digitigrade feet that kept the style of Lugia alive and well and a head that matched the original perfectly so that I could see the original reflected in them. And as a bonus, the wings/arms that I had always envisioned were actually two different but still-plausible parts. The arms were lean, slim and functional with human-like hands that had five slim, slender and (surprisingly) fingernail-less fingers on them. And Articuno had even gone a step further and had included the wings that were one of Lugia's trademarks. They had actually shifted their position from being the primary appendages up to its shoulders like a dragon or an angel. The five "fingers" that lined Lugia's wings were positioned in a way that they appeared like four "bones" on a dragon's wings and the fifth "thumb" up in the center in a way that they still seemed plausible. Sadly, Articuno had drawn this Anthro Lugia with its wings mostly furled so the true splendor of its wings was mostly concealed and attempts to get a "remake" of the picture proved fruitless.

And sure enough, this picture proved to be my main basis of how an Anthro Lugia would appear for another two years until today when I received the graphic but informative picture of how a regular Lugia could have anthropomorphic properties yet still retain its original form. True, it wasn't a picture that most people would want to see, but it was informative nonetheless. Ironically, my Lugia happened to be a nearly-identical version of that picture, which meant that there was a whole new range of possibilities that could be exploited in entirely new ways.

I was so busy thinking about this that I wasn't immediately aware that Si-ann had finished her food until I felt a soft, smooth, rubbery wing touch my right shin, which sent chills throughout my body. Shivering slightly, I looked down at her and found that she had finished every last drop of her blended food and was now seeking attention from her parent.

"Are you all done, girl?" I said with a simple smile. At this, Si-ann nodded and continued to reach up my leg with her wings. Chuckling to myself, I bent down and picked up both her and the bowl before bringing the latter over to the sink and washing it out before putting it in the dishwasher.

"I'm surprised that you ate all of that," I said to her as she purred and cuddled in my arm. "That was probably half of your body mass alone and you drank every drop. You're not gonna eat me out of house and home, are you?"

Si-ann continued to purr and I felt a positive denial "flicker" in my mind, which seemed to confirm that she was going to try not to overindulge herself. I smiled and hooked my other arm around her and rocked her gently in my arms. The stuffed Lugia was soon lulled into a soft and sweet state of sleep. She then yawned widely, which was contagious enough to make me yawn as well. Looking over at the clock on the stove, I saw that it was already 9:19, which was well past my usual bedtime. And since tomorrow was Saturday, I had pretty much the whole day to myself. So for tonight, I decided to call it a night and turn in. This had been a birthday to remember and tomorrow, I began my first year of official adulthood.

I carried Si-ann into my bedroom and set her on the bed while I striped down into little more than a shirt and boxers before proceeding to climb into bed. But since I tended to toss and turn in bed at night, I didn't want to put the young Lugia at risk, so I made a detour to the closet and picked out the softest and most comfortable blanket that I could and set it down on the floor. Si-ann was out like a light and didn't object to me transferring her to the makeshift bed. In fact, she seemed to warm up to the feel of the blanket - which made me wonder if she couldn't pick up my scent from - and curled up into a fetal position to continue her dreaming. With a smile, I slid into bed and picked up my Video MP3 Player to watch a couple episodes of Monster Rancher while I waited until 10:36 PM like I always did on my birthday. That was the exact time that I had been born, which was far later than either of my sisters (who had both been born between 7:00 and 9:00 AM, I forget exactly when), but since I could still stay up to that time, I had made it a tradition to do so every year and then announce the next year of my life as the minute rolled over.

It was a long time to wait, but I soon made it to 10:36 and spoke in a soft whisper, "Happy Drinking Day (even though I don't intend to)!" and then finally went to sleep for the night. Today had been one of the best birthdays I had ever had, which was due to the little bundle of wonder that was asleep on the floor next to my bed, and I hoped that when I woke up in the morning, it would all be as real as I believed it was.

I slept like a log that night and woke up the following morning with a smile. I was now officially 21 and I was determined to spend every waking minute of it with the being that forever changed my life - the lovely Lugia, Si-ann.

However, when I rolled over to check on her, I saw that she was gone! The blanket was still there, but the Lugia chick was not. This scared me slightly and made me wonder if last night had all been a rather vivid dream. I had been duped into thinking that my dream state was reality before, but I was sure that this time was no dream. I was sure that Si-ann was real and could even remember putting her to bed last night. This had to be real, but if it wasn't I had to wonder if my sanity was as stable as I believed it was.

"Si?" I whispered as I rolled out of bed. "Si-ann? Are you in here, girl?" No answer. Either she couldn't hear me or she just wasn't here. I looked under the bed and behind everything that I believed a 16-inch Lugia could fit into but to no avail. I began to wonder if yesterday really was a dream.

But then I noticed that the door was open just a crack. This was curious since I was sure that I had closed it last night like I always did when I went to bed. This made me wonder if Si-ann had somehow managed to get the door open and escape. Worried that she could be lost inside the house, I opened the door and carefully entered the hallway to begin looking for her.

But almost immediately, I not only heard something that seemed to confirm that I wasn't crazy, but I could also smell something that hadn't been there last night. I heard a deep, laborious panting and purring that was coming from the living room. The smell was rather deep, spicy and distinctly musky. It was so pungent that I could feel myself becoming aroused just by the odor alone. And judging from the strength of it, it was coming from the same area as the deep, throaty noises that met my ears.

Trying to fight back an erection, I rounded the corner of the hallway and saw a rather unusual sight. Si-ann was alive and well and was sitting on her back on the floor with her legs spread and her tail in-between them. The source of the noise seemed to be coming from her, but there was a table in the way that prevented me from getting a good look at her. But before I got around it, I noticed that the glass chess set that my grandmother had given me a while back looked a little out of sorts from its normally perfect position. I also noticed that the king was missing from the black side, but I didn't have to look far for it. On the floor on the other side of the table, Si-ann had the missing piece clutched in her left wing and was in the process of shoving and extracting the piece from the blue slit in her crotch, which seemed to be sending her into a sex-drived fury. Her head was all the way back and her tongue was sticking out to the side and she was drooling slightly as she used one of her wings to drive the chess piece into what I now realized was her female sex. Thick, clear and pungent fluids were flowing freely from her sex every time she pulled the makeshift "dildo" from her, which collected in a puddle on the carpet in front of her. She was obviously getting a great deal of pleasure out of this, even though it kind of shocked me instead of enraged me.

At first, I had assumed that the piece by itself would have been slightly too big even for her, but that question was soon answered when I saw that Si-ann had nearly doubled in size, height and weight since last night. From the end of her long, slightly-serpentine neck to the end of her long, thick, flexible tail, Si-ann was easily over four feet and maybe five, but if she was standing on her own two feet at the moment with her head and tail in the "correct" positions, she would have barely made it to three feet tall. I had known that even young Lugia tended to be as big as large ponies, but I never expected that they grew so big so fast in the first few days of their lives.

Meanwhile, Si-ann seemed to be completely oblivious to me and seemed determined to (pardon my French) "fuck" herself until she finally caved in to the pleasure. Her thrusts and pants were becoming more and more erratic, the puddle of clear "honey" that had accumulated was growing steadily bigger and if she wasn't already holding onto her reddish-purple cock with her wing -- which I now saw for the first official time -- she would have been pounding away at the floor with such force that she might have cracked the floorboards. Yet somehow, I couldn't muster the courage to stop her. Not only was I scared of the graphic display that was playing out before me, but I feared that bad things would happen to both Si-ann and me if I tried to intervene. All I could do was watch as the violent scene played out before me until it finally boiled over.

All of a sudden, Si-ann let out a sharp shrill!!! that was so loud that it made my ears hurt as a jet of clear-white liquid gushed from both her male and female parts, which splattered both her and the carpet and objects around her. Since I had never seen this done before, I was worried that Si-ann had overdone it from the sudden crash of energy that I now saw her displaying. She was panting and gasping for breath, her left wing now on her forehead and her right one on her belly. It seemed that she was finally and officially spent and seemed to have gotten all the strength sucked from her body.

Finally, I managed to muster the courage to approach Si-ann and see what was going on. It was an unpleasant feeling to step barefooted into the mess of sex fluids, but I figured that if she was going to be doing this on a regular basis, I was going to have to get used to the feelings, sensations and (more importantly) the smells. I could hardly believe that Si-ann was barely 12 hours old and yet she was more sexually-driven than the original Lugia in the picture.

"Si...?" I said carefully as I stepped around to her left side and crouched down. "Are you okay...?"

Si-ann's wing was still covering a majority of her face, but I figured that she already knew that I was here from my mental patterns. She took a moment to catch her breath and then uncovered her face so that she could look at me with a soft, round, chibi-like eye. She then seemed to muster the strength to make a weak but confident coo.

Now that I was certain that she was healthy enough to respond to me, I had a few questions to ask her. "Si-ann... why are you doing this to yourself? I understand that you have male and female sex organs, but I never thought that you would be doing this so early in your life. You're barely 12 hours old and yet you seem determined to push yourself to the limit. I don't understand why you need to do this to yourself. I thought you and I were supposed to be friends, and friends don't let each other torture themselves like this. What's going on, Si? I love you, but yet you seem to want to punish yourself for some reason. Do you understand me?"

Si-ann's breathing was becoming slower and more regular and her organs had stopped leaking fluids of both kinds. Her male cock had even begun to slip back into the folds of blue skin that it had emerged from and her female sex was starting to shrink back into its original shape and size. Her tongue even went back in her mouth and she seemed to muster the strength to roll over onto her front before pushing herself into a standing position. Sure enough, she wasn't quite three feet tall, but she was able to look me in the eyes while I was squatting down.

For some reason, she tried to make amends by stepping forward to either hug me or nuzzle her head up against me, but I was still scared of what Si-ann had become and backed up a couple of paces, which caused Si-ann to look at me with a look of loss.

"I'm sorry, Si-ann, but until you can find some way to explain what you are doing to yourself, I don't want you to touch me or come close to me. I'm scared of what you are or what you are becoming and I don't want to be around you if you continue to do this to the both of us. I... I just need some time alone. I'll be in my room, so when you're ready to explain all of this, you can come and talk to me."

Si-ann looked heartbroken as I stood up and walked through the liquid mess and returned to my room to lie down on my bed and think this over.

Questions about what Si-ann was and possibly what she could do were flying around my head. Why was she doing this to herself so early in her life? Was it natural or was her intended target actually me? Was I supposed to be the one to satisfy this creature's powerful sex lust or was I supposed to be the guinea pig for an even more powerful lust? And why had I received such a bizarre Lugia in the first place. If she had been more "normal", I probably wouldn't be feeling this way. But why on earth had I been chosen to test this very horny and sex-driven creature by someone that I had never even seen or met? Was I supposed to be her intended target or was I supposed to be just another statistic? Every Lugia that I had ever known would never do this to themselves in their wildest dreams, so what was so special about Si-ann's case? Why was she the one who had to endure this "abomination" and why was I the one who was supposed to endure her at all? It just didn't make any sense at all.

As I lied in bed trying to figure this out, I heard a faint tapping on the door, which could only be Si-ann and no one else. I was reluctant to let her in after seeing her abuse herself like that and let her knock for a little while to test how determined she was to gain access to my room. I gave her about two minutes before I finally gave in to her demands.

"It's open, Si," I said almost depressively.

The knob to the door rattled slightly and rolled to the side, which allowed the door to open and revealed the three-foot Lugia standing in the doorway. She was loosely holding onto one wing with the other and had her head down in a way that was normal for human children to be in when they knew they were in trouble. She wasn't even looking at me and had a sad expression on her face, which told me that she was genuinely ashamed of what I had caught her doing. She walked up to the side of my bed and stood there without looking at me in expectation of a royal chewing of some kind.

I should have chewed her out for what I had witnessed. It was sick and perverted to think that such a gentle giant such as a Lugia could abuse itself as graphically as it did. The fact that it could even do it at all was even more unbearable. But in most cases, Lugia didn't usually have the ability or the "plumbing" to even attempt something like that. That was probably why my outlook on Lugia and their sexual behaviors was probably a bit different that what I was supposed to be dealing with. I realized that Si-ann had been bred differently and probably couldn't help herself being so horny. It must have been agony to live with her natural hormone levels being as high as they were as well as having the physical ability to engage in violent sexual behavior. She probably couldn't help herself and I had been stupid enough to scold her for it. And judging from the expression she was giving me and the tears that were now leaking from her eyes, Si-ann was genuinely ashamed of what she was and what she did.

My heart went out to the little Lugia and I realized that I should have expected this from the moment that I laid eyes on the picture of the Lugia and the Ditto in the first place. This was not Si-ann's fault and I should have known better than to scold her for something that she couldn't help.

Rolling over so that I could look at her properly, I reached out with my hand and tipped her head up so that I could look her in her tear-stricken eyes. "Si-ann... I know I should have accepted what you are and that you can't help doing what you did. You're a very special and rare breed of Lugia and I accept that. You are naturally horny and sexually driven all your life, so I should have faced facts instead of scolding you and making you feel worse than you probably did. I accept that now and realize that nothing will ever change who and what you are. In fact, I'm actually looking forward to learning all I can about you and possibly helping you learn about yourself as well. So what do you say we try this again? Friends?"

The look of amazement on Si-ann's face was practically priceless. I was sure that she never expected in her wildest dreams that I would actually encourage her sexual cravings or even accept what she really was. She looked awe-struck at me for a moment before tears started to flow from her eyes again. However, these tears were that of relief and happiness, which told me that she was glad that I was going to accept and face her "abnormalities" as I physically could.

With a relieved purr, Si-ann nodded and held up her wings for me to pick her up again. I gladly did so, but I hadn't counted on her being as heavy as she now was. She had gone from just over five pounds at birth to almost five times that literally overnight. I sagged a little under her weight, but I was able to get her onto the bed where she could lie down next to me.

"Jeez, Si," I said with a groan. "You've kinda been packing on the pounds lately. You barely weighed a thing last night, but you probably weight five times as much today. Pretty soon, I won't be able to pick you up again."

Si-ann answered this with a reassuring coo and even stuck out her tongue to lick me on the cheek. I wasn't used to having wet items touch my face like that and flinched slightly when she did, but I soon realized that she was only trying to be nice and forced myself to deal with it. She was really just a baby gentle giant and deserved to be loved and cared for by someone with a loving heart.

The two of us laid in bed for a while in silence before Si-ann made a curious gesture. She moved her tail in a way that the tip of it slipped a little into the waistband of my boxers. The touch of her soft, rubbery flesh in that area caused me to squirm slightly and pull her tail out of it, but she continued to try and get into my pants, which told me that she wanted at my goods. This was a little disturbing since she was barely half my size and already she wanted a piece of me. I doubted that even her male cock would have enough mass to even attempt something like that. However, she seemed to want to take our relationship to the next step and was determined to do it somehow.

"Si..." I said as I tried to keep the Lugia's tail from getting too far in. "Are you sure about this? I've never exactly had sex before."

Si-ann looked at me for a moment with a blank look and then shook her head. Either she was answering my question and this was just foreplay or she was really up to something else in that brilliant mind of hers. And when she actually reached down with her wing to try and pull my boxers down, I had a sneaking suspicion that I knew what she was really up to. She was drooling slightly and her mouth was partially open, which told me only one thing.

"Are you trying to tell me... you want to do this... orally???"

Si-ann looked at me and amazingly nodded before trying to get in my pants again. This was a little bizarre since she just wanted to literally suck on me for my "first" session with her. But as I thought about it, I figured it only made sense. Her body was still far too small to engage in any "real" sexual activity, so I guess she was choosing the next best option. It scared me slightly that I would be sacrificing my virginity to this... creature... but I had made a commitment to endure everything that Si-ann threw at me, so I guess this was just that first difficult step into our true relationship.

After trying to find a way out of this and failing to keep the hungry Lugia at bay, I finally gave in and offered to slide my boxers down my legs by myself. Si-ann took a moment to look at me with a satisfied smile and then crawled into a position where she was kneeling over me, my soft maleness staring her in the face.

At first, Si-ann seemed rather unimpressed at the short, soft length that laid before her, but she seemed to have an ace up her sleeve and began to work her magic. She leaned down and began to gently caress my cock with her warm, slimy, saliva-coated tongue. The drool coated the tip, but there didn't seem to be a reaction coming out of it. I just didn't seem as aroused as I should have been, but Si-ann didn't seem to be finished. With her thin, pointed tongue, she slipped the tip of it directly into my urethra, which stung painfully and tested my self-control as it slid into me.

"Ahh!" I yelped, trying not to hit her out of reflex. "Si, be careful! That hurts!"

Si-ann ignored me and continued to slip her tongue farther and farther down my cock until the width of her tongue prevented her from continuing. By now, my maleness was becoming stimulated by the intruding organ and was soon hardening and lengthening to its fullest erect position. The Lugia didn't remove her tongue until she felt satisfied that it was at the premium length and stiffness.

Now that I had a full-blown erection staring her in the face, Si-ann took thing to the next step. Shifting her weight a little, I felt the "fingers" on her wing close around my balls, which felt like they were being given the "rubber glove treatment" I could feel myself being stimulated internally and knew that my first "official" ejaculation was not far away. Si-ann seized this opportunity to wrap her tongue around my cock tip and pull as much of it as she could into her beak before sucking lightly on it. She would pull lightly on it in expectation of having some kind of liquid burst from it, but when nothing came forth, she would resume massaging my balls with her wing. The sensation was far more erotic than I had ever expected it to be. The feeling of Si-ann sucking on me and the sensation of her rubbery fingers coaxing my testicles to burst forth seemed to be causing me to twitch involuntarily. I was in one of the most unusual yet pleasurable positions in my entire life and for some reason, I didn't want it to stop until Si-ann said so. Even stranger, as Si-ann continued to come up dry, my mind seemed to be tuning itself to a frequency where new and unusual thoughts began to come to light. I began to feel physical and emotional traits that did not belong to me and I vaguely realized that my brain frequency was slowly being tuned to that of Si-ann's I was starting to feel what she felt both physically and mentally and I was aware that she was feeling the same feelings. As she continued to suck on my still-dry cock, some of the chemicals from her drool were seeping into my body and were making their way to my brain. Soon, we had reached a mental unity that was so perfect that it was spiritually impossible to tell where my mind ended and Si-ann's began.

Finally, as our minds reached perfect harmony, I felt a rusty floodgate in my balls get wrenched open and spew forth a stream of seed that had been locked up for so long right into Si-ann's mouth. The Lugia let out a triumphant trill!!! and began to gulp down the delicious slime, lapping up every single drop that spewed forth so none of it went to waste. I continued to burst forth and Si-ann continued to swallow until neither of us had the strength to continue on and we both collapsed into each other, completely winded and worn out.

The feeling of finally releasing myself to Si-ann had been one of the most amazing feelings that I had ever experienced and I knew that Si-ann felt the same thing towards me. She had gotten what she had wanted all along and now that she was satisfied, she allowed the both of us to rest and regroup for the time being.

We both laid in bed for an unknown length of time before we felt our strength start to return to us. Si-ann was able to get enough physical strength to roll off of me and onto the bed next to me. She was breathing lightly and even reached her wing up to lick away at the dried cum that had accumulated between her fingers. My erection had passed and I was soon able to muster the strength to pull my boxers back up to their proper height. Our session had taken a lot out of us, but it had felt so good that we hadn't moved for a long time in case that we overshot our physical limitations. Soon, we were breathing normally and our strength had returned to its original levels.

With a groan, I pushed myself into a sitting position and looked over at Si-ann, who seemed to have fallen asleep for some reason. I guess she was more tuckered out than I had first thought and needed to sleep it off. After all, she had just had two sessions of sex within an hour of each other, so I understood why she needed to rest. Smiling pleasantly at her, I slowly pulled the covers up over her and then climbed out of bed to go get ready for my day. Checking the clock, I saw that it was 10:35 and I hadn't even had breakfast or a shower yet.

Deciding to let the sleeping dragon lie, I grabbed a set of clean clothes and snuck out of the room and made a stop at the bathroom. I was about to get ready to take a shower when I had a sudden idea to wait until Si-ann woke up. After all, she was a creature of the water, so I figured that a shower together would help the both of us. Dropping off my clothes, I relieved myself and then went out into the kitchen to make myself some breakfast.

I was finishing up my fried eggs when I felt an odd trickle of color touch my mind. Unsure of what it was, I put my dishes in the dishwasher and was about to go start cleaning up Si-ann's earlier mess when I felt another ripple of color in my mind. This time, the color was a bit more "alert" and "awake", which seemed to tell me that whoever owned them was just waking up. I reached the living room with a bottle of cleaner and a tub of water when I heard the door open and a familiar face walked out. With a smile, I turned in the direction of the room and was about to welcome Si-ann when I saw a rather alarming sight.

Si-ann had grown like a weed again during the short time that she had been asleep. She was now about four-foot-six and probably weighed double what she did before. She was now large enough to be classified as an adolescent child, which bothered me since she seemed to grow like crazy whenever she went to sleep for any length of time.

"Ay-yi-yi, Si! How much bigger are you gonna get?! Pretty soon, you'll be big enough to flatten me if we ever tried to sleep together again!"

Si-ann not only seemed to take this as a "compliment", but she also did something that she seemed to have acquired with her size increase -- she spoke.

"Thanks. We Lugia try to take care of ourselves."

This was an impossibility in itself. Not only had she spoken in perfect English (which was strange with someone her age), but she had also spoken vocally, which wasn't normal by any Lugian standards! I saw her beaked mouth enunciate every syllable without her beak losing its original shape. And if it was any bonus, her voice was soft, sultry and distinctly feminine with a smooth, loving and liquid-like ripple to it that one would expect with a very sexy woman. However, there was something about the way that it was just... her that gave it a unique vibrato and slight dominance to it. I had never heard such a soft yet powerful voice in any woman before and I doubted I ever would again.

"Si... did you just... talk?"

Si-ann blinked and looked around before turning back to me with a sly grin on her face. "I don't see anyone else around here that can talk like me, so I guess I did. Does that bother you?"

I took this the wrong was and suddenly became defensive. "No! No, not at all! I'm just not used to Lugia... you know... talking vocally is all."

Si-ann then laughed in a way that made my legs feel like jelly for a moment. There was a kind of musical ripple that she seemed to produce whenever she laughed that made me feel safe yet unusually weak the first time that she did it.

"Normally, it would take a regular Lugia a bit longer than me to speak at the level that I can, but since I was bred in a special and specific way, I can do things that regular Lugia could never accomplish in their entire lives, as I'm sure you've already seen."

I wasn't sure what to say even though I knew exactly what she was talking about. "I can see that."

Now that she had made her presence known, Si-ann walked over to me and knelt down by me while I was trying to clean up her previous mess. "I don't think that cleaning up would really help since I've got some abilities that will just make this place a mess again."

I gulped as she placed her wing on my hand, which was holding a wet rag on the floor. I was sure that she could sense me visibly shaking while in such close proximity to her.

"Oh... yeah? W... what would those... be?"

Si-ann smiled smugly and gently worked her fingers through my grip to take the rag out of it before standing up and walking a little ways into the living room.

"It's like this. I can assimilate myself with virtually any material in the world, thus enhancing my physical and spiritual abilities." (I was so glad that she didn't use the word "sexual" for some reason.) "If you want me to be a cute, adorable and fuzzy plushie, then I will grant you that wish. If you want me to become nothing more than an air-filled balloon, I can make that happen. Any material you want me to be and I will become that for you. It's all up to you."

I wasn't sure how to answer this unusual proposition. She had already defied everything I had ever known about Lugia, so why should she stop there?

"I... uh... you..." I was at a complete loss for words. There was something about her lean demi-anthro form that seemed to render me speechless in her presence. Everything I had ever known about anything seemed to have been knocked loose and was spinning around in my mind in a chaotic whirlwind.

Si-ann seemed to detect that she had stumped me and came up with an alternative solution. "Why don't I give you a demonstration and start with something simple?" She looked around for something before she spotted the glass chess set that was on the table directly behind me. Walking over to it, she stood next to it and then looked down at me. "Why don't you stand up? I'm sure you'll learn to love my cock in due time, but right now, I need you where you won't get your eye poked out. Here..." She offered me her wing, which I carefully took and used as leverage to stand up again so that I was looking down at her again. "That's better. Now watch this."

She lightly placed the tips of the fingers on her left wing on top of the glass chess board and I watched as a miracle unto magic began to unfold before me. The texture of her body seemed to shift from solid, silver-white flesh to clear, white crystal starting at her fingertips and working its way up her wing and then spreading out over her body, soon turning her into a living glass statue that was sculpted in a way that not even the best glass blowers in the world could ever reproduce. Every particle of her being was now comprised of the finest glass crystal and was colored accordingly, including her belly and navy-blue parts, which were now partially see-through in the morning sun.

I was completely taken off-guard by the glass goddess' transformation. She had literally become a living chameleon from the floor up. Si-ann's powers and abilities continued to make their mark on me.

"Si... you... how...?" I was literally breathless with shock.

Si-ann smiled and looked up at me while taking my hand in her wing. "Do you like it? And this is just the start. Just think of all the materials that are just in this house alone; I can become every single one of them if you'll let me. And who knows? If you like what you see, maybe I can enhance your being as well."

That did it. The pure shock of what Si-ann was revealing to me finally reached the point that I stopped breathing and passed out. Unfortunately, as I fell over, the side of my head clocked the table that was to my immediate right and I passed out in a rather painful heap.

I wasn't sure how long I was out, but the next thing that I knew, a sharp pain in my head brought me back into consciousness. I clapped a hand to my head in agony as I tried to figure out what had happened. However, the room was a lot darker than I remembered it. There was hardly any light getting inside and the lights in the house appeared to be off. With a groan, I rolled my head to the side and found that I was laying on the couch in my living room without any memory as to how I had gotten there. The lights were all out except for a faint trickle of what I assumed to be moonlight that was seeping through the blinds covering the windows.

At first, I was confused as to what was going on, but then I remembered how shocked I was at Si-ann's capabilities and then a painful fainting experience before I blacked out. I reached up with my hand and felt an ice pack wrapped in a washcloth placed over the rather painful bump on the side of my head. This must all have been Si-ann's doing, which seemed to touch my heart to the degree of her loyalty. She had been alive for just over 24 hours and already she had cared for me better than any one had ever done before for me. Add that to the fact that she had attempted to remove my virginity and I was truly dealing with a miracle of magic and nature here.

Groaning, I tried to get up, but I suddenly felt a firm, cushiony pressure being applied to my chest followed by a familiar voice. "Easy there, Alex. You kind of wanged your head when you passed out, so I don't want you to overdo yourself."

It was Si-ann, and when I managed to focus on her face, I noticed that her eyes were glowing a deep yet radiant navy-blue like the Lugia in the second Pokémon movie had done while underwater. The mere fact that she was here for me made me feel somewhat better about losing it in front of her.

However, there was something different about her yet again. "Si... did you grow again?"

Si-ann nodded as she adjusted the position of the ice pack on my head. "Yes, my love, but this time, I'm as big as I'm gonna get. You were out for so long that I kind of fell asleep while watching you."

I was impressed at her loyalty. "How long was I out?"

Si-ann shrugged. "About a day-and-a-half. You were really out of it."

I was amazed at the extent of that blow to the head mixed with my own faintness-of-heart. "Jeez, man. I guess the impact of your abilities finally got to me."

Si-ann nodded. "I guess I'm partially to blame, too. I over-stimulated you and your human mind must have just given out. The bump on your head, though, was probably collateral damage. Don't worry; I've never left your side since you went out."

I smiled with relief. "That's good, but... what about your... urges?"

"You know, I haven't had any since before you got knocked out. I guess they only act up when you're awake to witness them." She paused for a moment. "Are you going to be okay? I know I'm super-capable and all, but I don't want you to hurt yourself again."

I chuckled lightly. "I'll be fine. This just takes some getting used to is all. I've never had a Lugia for a girlfriend before, so I'm kind of winging it here."

Si-ann nodded and then adjusted the blanked that she had thrown over me. "Can I get you anything? Food? Water? TV, maybe?"

I was about to decline her offer when I suddenly had a strange craving that material possessions could not satisfy. "Yeah, but I'm wondering if it'll work."

Si-ann paused for a moment and then smiled. "You don't need to say a word. I can read your mind like a book. You just stay where you are and I'll be right back." She then stood up and walked towards my room before disappearing around the corner for a moment. I had to wonder if she was really going to do what I was actually thinking. I guessed I could only wait until she returned to be sure.

Soon, Si-ann returned, but there was something distinguishingly different about her this time. Her footsteps were softened and muffled on the carpeted floor, which made me wonder if she was doing what I thought she was doing. She then stood next to me and looked down at me with her glowing eyes.

"I'm back, but I think that we need a bit more room for you to feel this correctly."

I nodded. "Go for it."

Si-ann then reached up with her wings and I felt myself get "grabbed" by an invisible but powerful psychic force. She was using her powers to levitate me off of the couch before she lowered me gently onto the floor where she had set up another blanket so that the rough carpet didn't cause me discomfort. Once I was on the floor, Si-ann carefully brought herself down to my level and then wrapped a wing around me like a loving mother.

Immediately, I noticed that the texture of her body had changed significantly. She was no longer rubbery but was instead covered by a soft, fuzzy, plush-like skin that was indicative of just that - a plushie. She had read my mind like a book and had used one of the plushies in my room to become one herself so that she could cuddle up to me for tonight. Her body was now airy and more breathable than before, which allowed me to wrap my arms around her and hug her tight. She sighed as she felt her body compress for a moment but then ran a wingtip over my face in a loving manner. I could literally feel that she was stuffed not with flesh, blood and bone but actually actual cotton stuffing that was found in practically all plushies. She had not only changed her outsides but her insides as well. I guess she had really meant it when she said she could become any material that she wanted.

As I began to fall asleep again, Si-ann's body heat began to increase to a point that it was comfortable but not enough that it made me sweat. There would be no sex of any kind tonight. Tonight, Si-ann was showing her love for me in a very simple and basic way that I would always remember.

And just before I fell asleep, I heard Si-ann's voice whispering in my ear, "Good-night... my love... my soul mate... sweet dreams."

That was the last thing I heard before I passed once again into unconsciousness, the pain in my head all but forgotten.

When I woke up the following morning after enjoying one of the best night's sleep I had had in a long while, I found that Si-ann was gone again, which disappointed me since I had learned to like having her cushiony body cradling mine. Even stranger, she had somehow gotten me back up onto the couch and had covered me with the same blanket that we had been laying on last night. I noticed for the first time that the "blanket" was actually the strange silvery and fleshy "wrapping paper" that had arrived on Si-ann's egg's box when it had arrived. The "skin" (as that was what it really was) was soft and insulated and seemed to mold around every nook and cranny of my body, lending me warmth and comfort unlike anything I had ever felt before. In fact, it was so tight that for a moment, I could have sworn that it was my skin. But when I managed to peel it off of me with virtually no resistance, I was able to breathe a little easier. It was far too early for me to take that route in my relationship with Si-ann. I wanted a bit more time as a human with her before I made any long-term commitments.

"Good-morning, Alex," I heard the all-too-familiar feminine voice call out to me from the kitchen. "Did you sleep well?"

I rolled my legs into a sitting position and looked in the direction of the kitchen, which was basically in the same general area as the living room. True to her word, Si-ann had grown yet again into her "full" size, which wasn't a single inch under seven feet with her head in its usual crouched position. Her head now virtually touched the ceiling and I didn't doubt that her digitigrade feet contributed largely to her height.

If it was any consolation, Si-ann's shape and posture looked practically identical to the picture of the Lugia that had arrived with her egg, which I now noticed had been framed and set on the counter to the immediate right of the fridge. There was even a fresh signature written in loose, blue-inked, free-styled handwriting that read: "Si-ann the Lugia", which was an oddity in itself. Si-ann looked a lot like a regular Lugia would look if it could stand in a human-like posture without becoming completely anthropomorphic. Her legs were thick and muscular with narrow ankles that gave way to her tall, three-toed, digitigrade feet. Her torso was fairly rounded and oddly tear-shaped with her male and female sexes cleverly concealed away in-between her legs. Her wings/arms were thin enough to be classified as arms but broad enough and flat enough to still maintain their original functions, including the five-fingered "palms" on the end, whose wrists blended flawlessly with the rest of them. Her neck was still long and faintly serpentine and ended with the usual Lugia-shaped head, but like always, some of that length was given up with a slight bend so that Si-ann didn't appear too tall or intimidating. Finally, her tail was just as thick yet flexible as ever with the oddly-flatter tail spikes near the tip.

Always glad to see her, I nodded and replied, "Sleeping next to a big, plushie you, who wouldn't? Last night was short but incredible! How many other materials can you become?"

Si-ann had a spatula in her right wing and was tending to a griddle covered with pancake batter while looking at me with the flexibility of her head and neck. "Oh... that's up to you. I guess I can be whatever material you want me to be."

Amazed at both her lack of details and the fact that she was cooking me breakfast, I stood up and walked into the kitchen to stand next to her. "That many, huh? Well, then... I guess I'll have to get creative."

Si-ann giggled lightly and wrapped her tail around my waist like a belt so that I couldn't go anywhere. Taken aback by her gesture, I tried my best to get used to it while keeping an eye on the tip in the even that she decided to get frisky again.

"Easy there, girl," I said cautiously. "I'm all for fun like you, but I haven't been up for ten minutes yet and already you're starting to get horny."

Si-ann smiled and (thankfully) uncoiled her tail from around me, allowing me to shuffle off. "Oh, Alex," she said with a pleasant sigh. "You always jump the gun whenever someone wants to show you some affection and love."

I chuckled hollowly and came up with a decent reply. "Maybe, but then again, your love and affection has been a bit more "personal" than others."

I half-expected her to become offended by this, but to my relief, she merely shrugged and said, "That's true. I have been overstepping my boundaries lately without giving you much choice in the matter, so let's start this day completely fresh, starting with breakfast. Are these pancakes brown enough for you?"

She lifted the side of a pancake that was cooking. I noticed that it was just about the right darkness that I liked it. "It's pretty close. Just a tad darker and it'll be good. Just don't darken them too much."

Si-ann nodded and let the pancake cook a few seconds longer before flipping it and letting the other side cook. "I won't. You forget: I know your mind as though it was my own and I know you do, too. I just wanted to be sure is all."

I nodded and shimmied over to the counter while Si-ann cooked away. In the meantime, I noticed that there was a glass of what appeared to be golden honey sitting on the table as though she had set it there for me. However, living with Si-ann had kind of given me a natural suspicion as to what anything contained that I didn't produce. And when I picked up the glass and sniffed the mixture while swirling it around, the unmistakable smell of Si-ann in general mixed with something I couldn't identify met my nostrils.

"Si... what's this?"

Si-ann was currently tending to the pancakes and couldn't turn around, so she improvised by tilting her head and neck way back so that she was looking at me at an upside-down angle. "Oh, that? That's my special honey that I made this morning when I noticed that you were out of syrup."

I looked disgustingly at the seemingly innocent glass of "honey". "You mean... you made this yourself???"

Now that the first pancake was done, Si-ann was able to turn around and look at me properly. "Of course. Is there something wrong with it?"

I didn't want to offend her, but given the circumstances, I really didn't have a choice. "Si... this is sex honey! You want me to eat something that came from your slit?! Gross!"

Si-ann didn't seem insulted, but she pulled an annoyed lip anyway. "You're judging things based on where they come from like you've done all your life." And before I could ask how she knew that, she continued on. "It may seem gross, but you don't even know what it tastes like. I can assure you, though, that when I made it, sex was the last thing on my mind. I'm a one-of-a-kind creature that was bred from a series of artificial creatures known as "Synthetics" and like most Synthetics, everything that I produce myself is perfectly fine for human consumption."

I wasn't sure what to make of this. I seemed to have set her off by discriminating her based on the fluids she produced. And since she seemed to be a living fountain of "natural" and "synthetic" fluids, she seemed to take offense that I wasn't trying something that she had made just for me with the best intentions.

"Si... I..."

Si-ann seemed to realize that she was getting angry and immediately did her best to calm down. "I'm sorry you feel that way, but before you judge something that I made for your benefit, could you at least try it first? Then you can tell me what you think and I'll listen to whatever you have to say."

I gulped as I looked down at the golden syrup in the glass. This seemed so wrong and perverted in every sense of the words, but if it meant putting my relationship with Si-ann on the line to try this strange sludge, then I had to be willing to take risks to help the both of us out. With a sigh, I looked at Si-ann as though begging for some way out of this. But since she wasn't the type to be easily swayed when she made up her mind, I realized that I had no choice.

I took a deep breath and put the glass to my lips before tipping the golden honey back and letting it ooze down to my lips. It was rather warm despite the fact that Si-ann had made it before I had woken up, but I knew that there was no backing out now. I opened my mouth and let a small amount of the golden goo to trickle in before I removed the glass from my lips and tested the taste of the liquid...

...

...

...I expected it to be bitter and musky, but on the contrary, it was something completely different. It was rich, fruity and sweet as though I had taken a swig of rich, dark wine. I could not compare the taste to anything I had ever consumed before, but I knew right away that it didn't taste like any honey that I had ever tried. Its flavor was full, succulent and fruity, which contradicted everything I had ever put into my mouth up until now.

Finally swallowing the amazing liquid, I turned to Si-ann with a shocked expression. Amazingly, she had her wings crossed with a confident grin on her face. "See? What did I tell you? Don't knock it until you've tried it."

Words failed me. Instead, I set the glass back down on the table and walked towards Si-ann, who anticipated it and held her wings out to take me in a loving hug. And as she closed them around me and I rested my head against her soft, cushiony chest (not breast, mind you!), tears flowing from my eyes as I sobbed lightly into her.

"There, there..." she said, trilling lightly in her throat. "See? It wasn't so bad now, was it? I would never try to poison you or harm you in any way."

The unbelievable taste of the honey combined with the warm, soft, rubbery touch of Si-ann's skin had nearly broken my spirit in a good way. I still couldn't believe that such an amazing, capable and powerful creature was treating me like I was her own flesh and blood. The fact that she was merely here in my life at all was an impossibility in itself, but right now, the impossible was definitely possible no matter anyone in the world thought.

I cried into Si-ann's chest for a long time, while all the while she stroked me lightly with her wing like a loving mother. She was just so incredible and was so much like an angel that all of the sorrow I had ever felt in my life was being released here and now, which purified my mind and body as I sobbed into her. And amazingly, she didn't try to stop me. She knew that she had made a permanent imprint on me and was determined to let me get everything off my chest, no matter how long it took.

Finally, I had cried myself out and Si-ann released me so that we were looking at each other as best as we could with our obvious height differences. "Do you feel better?" she said politely.

Wiping the tears out of my eyes, I nodded. "Uh-huh. It's just that I've never felt like this ever in my life until you came into it. It must be really annoying to see a grown man like me crying over you like a little kid, right?"

At this, Si-ann tilted my head up lightly with a light touch of her wingtip so that I could see her soft, kind, chibi-like eyes. "Not at all. My birthright was to make and keep you happy, and as far as I can tell, I'm living up to every one of your expectations, so I feel more complete than ever."

It was strange that she used the words "more complete" instead of just "complete", but right now, I didn't really care what she said as long as she was happy with me.

Si-ann nodded and turned back to the griddle. "Now how about those pancakes? Is two good enough for you right now? I can always make more."

I nodded. "That's fine. I can handle about six that size, so you just keep on cooking."

Chuckling at the cute reference, Si-ann tapped me lightly on the cheek with her tail as she passed the plate to me. "You're out of syrup, but if you want, you can drizzle that honey over it as a substitute. That's why I made it in the first place."

With a shrug, I took the plate from her and went to go sit down at the table. I then took the glass of honey and slowly poured it over the two pancakes, wondering how its unique taste would affect them. But sure enough, I found out when I cut out a piece and tried it. The pancakes didn't taste like the pancakes that I remembered tasting but instead gave them a kind of sweet, shortcake-like taste with a hint of something sweet and fruity mixed in. It was like I wasn't even eating plain pancakes at all but instead those fruit-filled crepes that I saw iHOP advertise all the time on TV. I didn't tell Si-ann how good they were, but I was more than convinced that she could hear the party in my mind loud and clear. All she did to show that she could hear me was turn her head slightly and wink at me out of the corner of her eye before returning to the griddle.

After three waves of that pure flavor festival on two pancakes each, I was finally satisfied and decided to drink the rest of the honey from the glass for myself before putting my dishes in the dishwasher and finally starting it up when Si-ann added the dishes that she had used for cooking. And once we had both cleaned up substantially, I soon found myself standing in the middle of the kitchen less than a foot from Si-ann's limber figure.

"Well, then..." she said with a smile. "That should hold you over until lunch. Now what would you like to do?"

I blinked as I pointed blankly to myself. "You're leaving it all up to me? Are you sure?"

Si-ann nodded. "Absolutely. If you want to do something, I'm willing to do it with you. Whether it be TV, sex, sleep or anything in-between, it's your call."

I had never been put in this kind of position where someone wanted to do whatever I wanted with no questions asked, so I was a little unsure about how to do this. However, an idea soon came to my mind that I was sure was not from Si-ann's influence over it.

"How about you show me a few more of your "camouflage" abilities and then we "try them out"?" I asked, using air quotes for the last three words.

Si-ann smiled and nodded. "Very well. Name a material and I'll do my best."

I thought about this for a moment. As many possibilities that there were, almost everything seemed... too ordinary. There was cloth, wood, metal, plastic, rubber and glass from what I could see, but I was feeling adventurous, so they didn't seem to meet my own requirements.

But then I looked over towards the sink and an idea came to my mind that could either be very interesting or could possibly kill the both of us. "How about water?"

Si-ann cooed curiously. "Just water? Nothing else in it?"

I nodded. "Nope. Just plain, ordinary, run-of-the-mill H2O. You can do that, right?"

Si-ann followed my gaze to the sink and thought about it for a moment before she smiled confidently. "Very well. Watch as I take the term "Water's Great Guardian" to a whole new level!"

Unsure of what kind of "beast" I had just unleashed, I followed Si-ann over to the sink and watched as she turned on the faucet and stuck her fingers under the flowing water like someone testing the temperature.

However, this didn't seem to be what the Lugia had in mind because she suddenly pulled a face and shut off the water. "This won't do."

I was confused. "Why not? It's normal, everyday tap water."

Si-ann sighed. "That's the problem. I am a natural creature of water and I believe that both you and I should get quality over our water instead of just convenience. Do you have any distilled drinking water on hand?"

I thought about this for a second. "Just a little in the fridge. I don't know if it's enough, though."

Si-ann smiled. "That's all I need. Come hither." She beckoned me to follow her over to the fridge and opened it. There was a half-gallon jug of drinking water that I had nearly cleaned out on the side shelf with just enough left in it to give myself a small drink. I was unsure about how she was going to be able to make contact with the water without spilling it everywhere.

However, she had a simple yet ingenious solution. "Bring me a bowl, love."

The gears in my head were moving as I fetched a simple soup bowl from the cupboard and set it on the table. Si-ann unscrewed the cap from the jug and poured what was left of the water into it before setting it aside. She then waved me off with her wing as though telling me to leave her be.

"Give me some space, love. I've never done water before and I don't want you to get wet just yet." I took one giant step backwards and braced for the worst as Si-ann dipped her right fingertips into the bowl of distilled drinking water and closed her eyes.

It took a moment, but soon, Si-ann seemed to lock onto whatever she used to become a material. I watched as an effect similar to what had happened when she had used glass began to happen to her body. Her silvery-white skin soon turned a deep, watery blue as the water "traveled" from the bowl up her wing and to her shoulder before it spread out over her entire body. It was like her entire body was "liquefying" so that she was becoming a being of pure, clean water. The light in the kitchen and everything around it was reflected in her transparent-blue body, which rippled and flowed as though the surface of the ocean was embedded within her. I noticed that the sky-and-navy-blue parts of her were still there, but they were a bit less "noticeable" this time. They were colored only a shade darker or lighter than the rest of her body was, which retained her Lugian coloring pretty well. Pretty soon, Si-ann seemed to consider herself finished and opened her eyes to look at me and herself. Unlike her other colored body parts, her eyes still remained the soft yet fierce navy-blue color that she had always had, but this time, there was a slight transparency to them that was considered "normal" for her current status.

Si-ann held up a wing to her head and turned it slightly as she examined every detail about it that she could. And when she spoke, her voice had a kind of "watery" and space-like distortion to it that sounded like she was speaking to me from another dimension.

"That's interesting. It looks like I'm retaining water rather well, don't you think?"

I couldn't help but choke on my laughter when she said that because the situation and statement were so close to the truth. "Ha ha! I guess so." I immediately blushed and felt rather embarrassed at laughing at her joke. "Sorry. It was just so funny."

Si-ann, however, didn't take it the wrong way. "No, it's fine. You can say anything to me or about me if you think it's funny; I won't mind."

She was obviously taking this really well. After all, how would you feel if you were an aquatic Pokémon that became the very essence of water?

Now that that was out of the way, Si-ann and I decided to test out her new body's abilities based on what we could see and feel right off the bat. It was strange to see a creature made up of nothing but water, but it was even stranger to see that that creature didn't shed so much as a drop of its body onto the floor around it. Si-ann was somehow keeping the water inside her into a solid shape without even dripping onto the floor like one would expect with something that was "wet".

Si-ann seemed to still be able to fell what I was doing because she giggled as I poked her in different parts, which caused rippling effects to course through her body every time I touched her.

"OOH!!!" she squealed as I poked her all over her body. "Alex, quit it! That tickles!"

Realizing that I had something going on her, I continued to poke her and "annoy" her just because I could. "Quit what? This?" I said, poking her on the inside of her thigh. "Or this?" Another prod underneath her wing joint. "Or maybe... this?" Another ticklish poke on her neck.

Si-ann knew that I had gotten her right where I had wanted her as she continued to squeal and shrill wildly at the tickling sensations. However, I seemed to overdo it to the point that Si-ann wrapped both of her wings around me and literally pulled me into her watery body. I was soon submerged inside her and I doubted that she even knew what she was doing.

"Si! Stop!" I said, trying my best to conserve my air supply. "I'll stop! Just let me out!"

Si-ann, however, hadn't yet recovered from my insistent tickling and it seemed that the feeling of a human inside her made her quiver all over. I tried to hold what little breath I had left and tried to break out by pushing out on her, but I seemed to be trapped inside a living bubble of water with no escape.

Just before I was about to pass out, Si-ann realized what she had done, but on the contrary, she didn't seem all that concerned. "It's okay, love. I can keep my body oxygenated around the clock. Breathe all you want."

Unsure if what she was saying was feasible, I chanced my entire life on one quick breath...

...

...

...but I didn't drown. Instead, I felt nothing short of pure oxygen-rich water entering my system without flooding me or drowning me in the slightest. In fact, the water seemed to stay within me while only the air that it contained was allowed to affect my body. I had technically "drowned" from the amount of extra water within me, but amazingly, I felt just fine. It was literally like Si-ann now had part of her within me in an extreme sense of the word while still keeping me alive.

"Si-ann...?" I said while speaking perfectly fine from within the aquatic Lugia. "What did you do to me?"

Si-ann blinked and poked herself in the belly, which affected me as well somehow since I could feel it as though she had touched me.

"What do you mean, "What did I do to you?" There really wasn't a lot I could do. I just enabled myself to supply you with all the oxygenated water you could breathe without technically "drowning" you."

I blinked and moved my arms around as though I was swimming inside a giant gel of some kind. I realized that I was literally standing inside Si-ann's body as though she was a living water-based suit. I could feel the inside of her legs wrapped around mine and my arms inside hers like the sleeves on a coat of some kind. But since my neck wasn't as long as hers, I had to settle for the top of her chest for now. But what was a bit more disturbing was that I could literally feel my male length gently sheathed in hers, even though it wasn't visible from the outside. I could even feel an extension on my tailbone through my underwear as though her tail had connected with me. Finally, even though my head only went up as high as her chest, I could somehow see out of her own eyes as though my neck had grown to the proper length. In fact, as I stood here, I could feel my senses merging more and more with hers while my original body seemed to be fading away into her watery insides.

"Si..." I said as the "merging" seemed to finalize itself. "What... happened to me? What are you doing to me?"

Si-ann and I seemed to move as one "we" held up "our" wing to look at it. Amazingly, the two of us saw the same watery-blue appendage held out in front of us without any aquatic distortion at all.

"I made you... me... and me... you. We're one and the same for now for as long as you want it. There are many things that we can do together as one if you feel like it."

This was a bit more to take in than I expected and I could feel myself being overwhelmed by sensations and emotions that I didn't doubt originated from Si-ann. But as much as I wanted to do what she wanted me to do with this connection, I felt that she had rushed to judgment too soon and I wanted out.

"I'm sorry, Si, but this is way too much for me to take in all at once. This all sounds like a lot of fun, but you're over-stimulating me far too much and I want out... please?"

Si-ann's confidence seemed to take a hit and knock her into a state of confusion. "I don't... understand."

I realized that if I didn't do this right that Si-ann's respect for me would take a major blow and things could possibly spiral out of control for the both of us. "Well... let me put it this way... Humans aren't used to having their bodies made up of anything but flesh, blood and bone, so water is a bit "much" for us to take in. We're not used to having tails or having powers even close to as powerful as you. It's one thing to be sexually intimate with us, but most humans don't want to push it beyond that. Don't get me wrong; I want to make you happy since you've already done so much for me, but like most humans, you need to do things much slower so that I can get used to them bit by bit. If you overdo things right off the bat, I might lose my sanity or something like that. That's why I was okay with you and I having sex in little bits earlier; it was because we did things slower than this so that I could get used to you. Do you understand now?"

I expected Si-ann's confidence in herself to have been all but shot after this little speech. In countless stories that I had read, when the dominant creature didn't get what they wanted, they would either go crazy to become obsessed with their submissive until things worked out in their favor. I could only hope that Si-ann understood my words and remained calm and sane enough for us to still maintain a steady relationship.

Incredibly, all Si-ann needed to regain her composure was to close her eyes, take a deep breath and let it out before opening them with a small smile. "I understand, my love. I should have asked for your permission before I rushed to my judgment. You humans need time to adjust to anything new and I respect that trait now." She closed her eyes again and let out a slow sigh before opening them again. "Very well. I will let you out and we'll take things slower than this. And since you are my owner, you know better than even I do about what you need and when you needed. Take a deep breath because I need to pull my water out of you."

I did so and I felt exactly that. Si-ann extracted the oxygen-rich water that she had infused me with and before I knew it, I was once again in my own body within Si-ann's water-based one. She then stuck her wings through her torso and grabbed me before pulling me out and setting me on my own two feet without even a single drop of moisture from her body left on me.

Now that I was able to breathe again, I turned around and looked at the aquatic Lugia as the freshly-made hole in her flowed shut without even a seam. "So... what are you going to do now, Si?"

The Lugia merely shrugged. "I'm not sure. That didn't exactly work out the way I had originally planned, so I guess I should be asking you that."

I felt bad for getting Si-ann all excited before having everything fall apart before her. As an alternative to what we had originally planned, I quickly looked around the immediate area for something for her to assimilate herself with that we could both enjoy without putting my nerves and well-being to their limit. However, I seemed to be coming up short because I couldn't find any material that would be both special and enjoyable.

But as I continued to come up short, Si-ann offered her opinion about what to become for now. "Alex... may I make a suggestion?"

I blinked. "You may."

Si-ann walked around me and headed into the spare bedroom to rummage around for a moment. I waited patiently for her to return, bracing for the worst and the unknown for what she had planned.

A few minutes later, a newly-restored flesh-and-blood Lugia came back into the kitchen with a small, half-full bag of what appeared to be party balloons. I had completely forgotten about them from a party I had had long ago. She then stopped in front of me and took my hand in her wing before setting the bag of balloons in it with her opinion.

"How about if I become a balloon? It was the simplest yet most effective form that I could think of. Besides..." she added with a smile. "Even the most mundane things can be enjoyable if you approach them with an open mind. What do you say?"

It was so simple that I couldn't believe that I hadn't thought of it. I had never before seen a Balloon Lugia in any picture on the Internet that wasn't "over-inflated" to a pudgy, fat-riddled form for those who enjoyed that kind of fetish.

"It sounds pretty good. Let's get one out and see what you can do."

Si-ann cooed lightly as I extracted a blue balloon from the bag and held it out to her. "Very well. But I must warn you that I might get a little... "excited" with balloon hormones running through me."

Normally, this would have freaked me out, but given what I had already gone through with Si-ann, this seemed like small potatoes compared to what Si-ann had already done to me. I simply placed the deflated balloon in her wing and stepped back as she looked at the tiny item.

She looked from the balloon to me for a moment as though trying to make a last-second decision, but she looked past it and clenched the balloon in her palm and closed her eyes. I stood back and watched as her smooth, rubbery flesh started to become more reflective and partially transparent as she assimilated herself with the balloon. Physically, it was hard to tell what was happening to her apart from a small ripple of color washing over her, turning her normally color-blended silver-white skin into a more "flat" color that was roughly still the same. The navy-and-sky-blue parts of her remained the same, but her body gained a kind of natural "bounciness" to it as her flesh, blood and bones were converted into what I assumed was nothing more than empty space and air. Soon, her conversion was complete and she opened her eyes to look at me again with an uncertain look.

"Did it work?" she said innocently.

I shrugged. "I can't tell. Do you mind if I...?" I trailed off.

Si-ann smiled and nodded, which caused some slight stretching noises in her neck. "Go ahead. I'll try not to laugh this time."

I stepped forward and placed my hand on her chest. It felt like rubber, but given what I was used to, I had to make absolutely sure. I dug my fingers firmly into her skin and pinched it to make a kind of "flab fold", which I pulled out about an inch or so before letting it snap back and made Si-ann chitter playfully.

"Ooh... that feels weird! I feel so... bouncy." At this, she bounced herself on her toes, which made her bounce (literally) an inch off the floor before settling back down on the floor.

I was liking this new form already. It was both more flexible and rubbery than her previous form had been and if I wanted to, I could give her a big cushiony hug and use her as an air cushion whenever I pleased.

For some reason, Si-ann giggled. "Slow down there, Jethro. I still need to break this body in."

I was about to ask her how she had known what I was thinking when Common Sense told me that she was psychic, so that question was rather pointless. "Okay, Si-ann. So... what do you want to do with this body first?"

At this, Si-ann suddenly got a big, mischievous grin on her face as she chuckled menacingly. "Well... I think we should level the playing field first." And before I could ask her, she leaned her head forward and whispered lightly in my ear, "Drop 'em, love... or else."

I felt a chill run up my spine as she said this. She was obviously already horny and I knew better than to argue with her by now. Gulping hard, I nodded and said back. "Oh... okay... just give me a second."

I then stepped back a few paces while Si-ann continued to grin mischievously at me. I then stripped down my boxers and revealed my manliness to the grinning Balloonie. However, she didn't seem to be finished with me there.

"Not good enough. I want them all off."

Jeez, man! There was no satisfying this creature! Deciding not to argue, I quickly pulled my shirt off and tossed it aside. Now that Si-ann had gotten what she had wanted, her smile became a bit let creepy, but she wasn't finished with me yet.

"Come with me, my love," she said, turning and beckoning for me to follow her into the living room. I carefully followed her as she lied down in the middle of the floor and patted her belly invitingly. I could see her reddish-purple maleness starting to poke out of her crotch as she waited for me to come to her.

I was about to lie down on top of her when she suddenly blocked me from coming any further. "Uh-unh. Flip over. I've got something planned for you that will cement our relationship with each other forever."

I realized that the hormones that were running through her system had caused her mind to jump right to the final stage in our bonding. This was far earlier than I had expected and I knew that once I obeyed her, my life was going to take one more steep step into my relationship with her.

"Si... no... it's too early. You promised... you wouldn't... rush this... you promised."

Si-ann chuckled menacingly. "I know I promised, but Fate has decided otherwise. I am going to mate with you and you are going to take it in full or else..." She bared her fangs and licked her rubbery chops hungrily. "I'll have to improvise."

I did not want to allow her to do what she was thinking, so I rolled over with a sigh and decided to accept my fate with whatever she had planned for me. A tear came to my eye as I slowly lowered down onto her and allowed her cock to slip in-between my buttocks and penetrate my previously virgin body.

"That's a good human. Now, lie on me and allow me to begin the final procedure."

I slowly lied down on her rubbery belly as she wrapped a wing around me and pulled me close, her cock burying itself even further in my ass. Once I was completely laid out on top of her, my nerves started to fail. I was starting to shake visibly and whimper lightly as I felt the cock push itself even farther into me.

"Si... why?" That was all I could say out of shock.

Si-ann brought her wing up and placed it lightly on my forehead with the other one wrapped lovingly around my torso. "Because, my love... this is your destiny... and mine. We were destined to become mates long before we were born. You cannot escape your fate and neither can I. Your human life existed only to become my mate at this point in your existence, whether you were expecting it or not. Besides, look at it this way: your dream come true has been taken to the next level. Not only do you have a Lugia for a friend, but you have the honor of becoming one as well. You and I are becoming one entity and spirit, and all you need to do is endure the final stage of your initiation as a human before you begin your new life as my mate."

I had never known that Si-ann had been so serious about this, but that barely made it any more bearable. I was about to give up my humanity for a creature that I had admired all my life. But for some reason, that seemed... just fine. I couldn't explain it, but I figured that life as Si-ann's mate was probably going to be far more enjoyable than life as a meaningless human.

So with a deep sigh that partially masked a shudder as Si-ann's cock reached a tender and vulnerable area within me, I finally gave up and allowed her to do whatever she wanted to me. "All right, love. Let me have it. I don't care what you do to me anymore as long as you're happy."

Si-ann smiled and purred lightly as she kissed me lightly on the cheek. "Very well, my mate. Just close your eyes and I will try to make this as painless as possible."

I did so and immediately froze up as I felt Si-ann erupt inside me, flooding my body with hot and powerful male seed. Somehow, her cock had made its way to my heart and had penetrated it to pump warm, creamy seed directly into my bloodstream. I felt incredibly hot all over my body and then... I felt nothing at all. My senses had failed and numbed up so that I became nothing more than an empty shell with a mind and soul still inside it.

After what seemed like an eternity, I sensed that Si-ann was removing her cock from within me, her task complete. And once it was all the way out, I was vaguely aware of her rolling me over so that we were belly-to-belly. I was barely able to see her in the white mist that had covered my vision.

"Si... ann..." I gasped, trying hard to speak. "Don't... leave... me..."

Si-ann knew that I could barely hear her anymore, so she settled with a different way of her getting her message to me. I'll never leave you, my mate. I will be here for every second that you are out. I will watch over you as you become like me and I will be here when you wake up into your new existence. Now... sleep and dream sweet dreams as you become my true mate.

I had heard every single word in my mind, which was still intact, but for how much longer remained to be seen. The last thing that I felt before I fell into a deep, seduced sleep was a slight pressure on my mouth that could only have been made my Si-ann kissing me as I passed out.

I don't know how long I was out, but the next thing I knew, I was slowly waking up to see a familiar face looking at me from above. It took me a moment for my mind to catch up with my vision, but once it had, I was greeted with a welcome sight.

Smiling weakly as my vision finally came into focus, I spoke to the figure with a weak voice. "Hello... my love... is it over...?"

Si-ann smiled and ran a wing lightly over my face. "It's over, but our lives have only just begun. Why don't you sit up and look at what you've become."

It took me a moment to muster the strength to do so, but once I did, I was able to open an entirely new chapter in my life and relationship with Si-ann. I had become a Lugia. And not just any Lugia, but the Lugia. In a sense, I had become a "Modified Anthro Lugia" just like the picture that had been included with Si-ann's egg. I wasn't a True Anthro Lugia or even a normal True Lugia. In fact, I was somewhere in the middle. I had traits of both types mixed into this highly-capable form. I had a human-like posture with a tear-shaped rounded torso, long yet broad Lugian-Human wing/arms, thick-to-thin legs with digitigrade feet and the same lean and curved neck that ended with the traditional Lugian head. In all, I was an exact copy of Si-ann, down to the... oh...

"I see you spared no expense, love," I said, looking down at my concealed male and female organs.

Si-ann chuckled. "Of course not. Why should I be the only one to have fun with them when I can do it with someone? Do they offend you?"

I should have said something about them, but for some reason, I really didn't care any more. In a way, we were the same being down to our own physical and sexual traits. In fact, the only key difference between either of us was that I was a male hermaphrodite while Si-ann was an obvious female one. Apart from that, we were both practically fraternal twins, down to the ability to assimilate ourselves with any material that we wanted.

"I don't think they do. Besides, this way, we won't be alone in the world."

Si-ann smiled proudly. "I'm glad you feel that way, love. That was what I was shooting for ever since we first met and I'm glad that we're both on the same page."

Now that that was out of the way, the conversation turned to what we were going to do next.

"I don't know how we're going to survive in the world," I told her. "Neither of us can fly and we can't haven't gotten any hunting or swimming practice that we could benefit off of."

Si-ann sighed and licked me gently on the cheek. "Oh... I'm sure someone will come along and tell us what we can do. After all, Strato and Plexadonn Incendus are gods, so I'm sure they'll figure out what we can do before too long."

Strato and Plexadonn Incendus. So they were the ones who had given me the wonderful gift that lied before me. I had almost forgotten about the note that had been included with Si-ann's egg. I had never met either of them, but I felt that that meeting was not that far away anymore. If Si-ann was sure that they could help us, then that was just fine with me. We weren't going anywhere fast and it wasn't like anyone was going to miss us anymore. I had time to spend, and judging from the smell that was starting to rise up in the room, Si-ann had nothing better to do, either.

And with that, the two of us engaged in our first official mating ritual right there on the floor of the living room. Our fluids soon coated everything within range of us and the sounds of hot sex were soon evident in the air. I had a feeling that I was going to like this new life with Si-ann and somehow, I knew she would, too.
