Sorry for the long wait, I don't get much time on the computer lately so I've had some trouble typing and writing. But here you go, chapter thirty four, a mostly clean, plot based chapter mainly focusing on our lucario buddy. And for those worried about the watersports tag, its not that big, just a short scene of non-sexual urinating

Chapter Thirty-four: Favors

The silver, half full orb hung in the sky above Tidal Island. Below, its twin shimmered and wavered with the ocean waves. The night was clear, not a cloud was in sight and the stars were shining through the light of the city. Standing at a window, gazing out at this was lucario

Somewhere beyond that vast sea was his home, the place he belonged, not with the humans and their captive pokémon. But he still couldn't go back; he'd only just begun his quest

"U-um, excuse m-me," came the small, nervous voice from behind him

Glancing behind him, he saw the large room he had taken as his camp. From what he understood, it was formerly an office building and was set for demolition sometime soon, but for now it was a secluded place near his target. He currently occupied one of the worker areas, the vast, open area that normally housed rows upon rows of cubicles and the humans who inhabited them now stood empty. The little light that filtered in from the rows of windows left nearly all of the inner space pitch black, meaning that lucario had to use his aura sense nearly constantly.

Near the side wall, where the office space turned into a hall leading to more offices, the quilava he'd just rescued stepped from the small bath he'd offered to her and closed the gap between them to afew feet. The little creature looked terrified, and he supposed she should be, given what she had gone through less than an hour ago. Just thinking about it made him shudder in disgust

"Yes little one?" he asked as softly as he could

"Why-why di-did you ta-take me?" she squeaked, almost as if doing so might make him take her back

"It is my duty to help a pokémon who is in danger or being abused by the humans," he said simply

"O-oh, um, wha-what are you go-going to do to-to me?"

Lucario looked at her strangely, why would she ask that? What did she expect? "I will take you to the forests on the mainland, where you can be free, once I finish my mission here"

"You-you're going to ta-take me away?"

"You will be free, yes"

"But, what ab-about Tyler and Shadow?"

"...who are they?"

"My friends, a boy and an umbreon"

Noting her loss of a stutter, he asked, "those ones I saw you with before, the ones that helped me. What would you have me do with them?"

"I wanna go back to them"

Lucario paused for a moment. She wanted to go back? Back to the human? But why? Wouldn't any pokémon wish to be free? Don't all enslaved pokémon wish to be free like he and his kin are? Is there something in those balls that changes them? She isn't lying, I can see it in her aura, she truly wishes to go back to the human. It's strange, but if it is her wish, he shall honor it

"As you wish, I shall return you to the human and umbreon come the morning, for now you must rest"

"Bu-but," she whined with a sudden urgency, "I, um, I...nnn"

He watched the fire-type squirm slightly, like she needed to say something but was too embarrassed to say it. "What is it? Would you like to be returned sooner?"

"No-well yes, but that's not it," she groaned and crossed her legs, rocking back and forth slightly, "I-Ineedtopee!" she said as fast as she could before her nervousness made her wet herself

The jackal was caught off guard for a moment by the sudden exclamation. As he realized what it was she wanted, he turned almost as red as she already was. "Oh, um, there is a lavatory down the hall," he turned away as if she was about to urinate right there, "last door on the left, though it may be uncomfortable for someone with your build." When he turned back, she was already bolting across the large room and down the hallway, a droplet of urine running down her leg

"Almost almost almost," she cried as if that would stop her bladder's incessant pleads to be emptied. She saw the door right ahead, she jumped up and grabbed the knob. Unfortunately, in order to get enough grip and leverage to turn it, she had to widen her stance and stand up on her back legs, making it even harder to hold in what had been building since the morning.

"Just have to get in."

The knob turned and the door swung open, she sprinted for the toilet and tried to jump. But the moment her front legs left the floor, her back right slid under the carpet and her left stepped down just beside it, atop the carpet. Her foot trapped beneath the mat, she slammed back to the floor, her momentum making her flip over, her foot, of course, no longer tangled

"Oh no! If I can just...nnnnnnnnng!!!"

She couldn't hold out any longer. With a cry of simultaneous anger and relief, a stream of hot piss flooded out. In a second her crotch, legs, and the tile was soaked with the acrid fluid as it drained out of her

Hearing the noise of Lava's fall and her loud cry, lucario quickly entered the bathroom to be sure she was ok. Seeing her rescuer at the door, watching her wet herself and his floor, Lava turned redder than she ever had in her life and in surprising quickness, flipped over to her feet. But now her unstoppable torrent of urine not only ran down her legs, but streamed out of her urethra and splattered to the floor with an echo that Lava was sure could be heard throughout the city

Mercifully, her bladder emptied soon, uncaring for what its relief had cost, and the stream trickled out, a pool wider than its owner seeping over the tile and soaking the dastardly carpet. The two pokémon now stood in deafening silence, each frozen in embarrassment

After what felt like an eternity, but was actually only a minute or two, lucario spoke first, "I apologize," he said, finally looking away from her, "had I known-"

Lava yelped like she'd been shot at and jumped from where she had been straight into the tub, the only place she could go to hope to hide from her punishment. The little ball of pee soaked fur curled up and trembled in the small basin, hoping lucario wouldn't hurt her or refuse to take her back to Tyler. Oh gods, she would never see her friends again she realized, all because she couldn't get to the toilet. Tears began streaming down her cheeks at the thought

Lucario stood at the doorway, perplexed as to why she had fled. When he heard sobbing from her place, he carefully, but quickly, stepped up to the side and looked down at her. When Lava looked up at him, she cried even more

In between tears and sobs, she managed to squeak out, "ple-please*sob*do-don't take*sniff*me-me away fro-from Ty-Tyler a-and Sha-Sha-Shadooooow..." she couldn't say anything else as she began sobbing even harder than she had before

The young and inexperienced lucario was at a loss for what to do. All he could think of was to kneel down beside the tub and gently place a paw on her cheek

"Why would I remove you from where you wish to belong?"

Getting her breathing back under control, she said, "be-because I ma-ma-made a mess, and now-now you-you'll pu-punish me"

Lucario gently wiped her cheek, a futile effort as even more tears stained it but the gesture was appreciated as the scared quilava looked up at him through water soaked eyes

"You could not have controlled the events," he told her, "it was an accident, nothing more. You shouldn't be punished for what you cannot stop"

The tears slowed slightly and she looked at his eyes. Something was different from what she remembered about him, after a moment she saw it. His eyes, they weren't the fierce crimson of a lucario. They were soft, gentle, and a deep golden amber. The longer she stared into them, the less tears she shed and more comfortable she felt. Soon she found herself placing her paw over his and uncurling from her ball alittle

"You-you won't pu-punish me?"

"No, I shall return you to your fellows in the morning, for now, I shall assist you in cleaning yourself and the lavatory"

Lava fully uncurled and lay in the tub, still blushing, but a much lighter shade of red now, "o-ok"

"Now just relax," he said, slowly reaching for the water knob

Turning it, he expected water to pour out of the bath facet, instead the shower head sputtered a moment before drenching them both in cold water

"GAH!" lucario cried, pulling his paw away to cover his face and then trying to blindly switch off the water. By the time he found the knob and twisted it, the water had warmed up slightly and he was soaked from head to tail

The quilava, meanwhile, giggled quietly to herself, recovering from the icy wakeup and watching lucario thrash about trying to turn it off. She giggled more when he shook his head from side to side, his four aura sensing, bang like growths whipping back and forth and sending water scattering everywhere

"I'm *ahem* sorry, I didn't realize..." he stopped when he notice her smiling softly at him, "um, I will fetch a towel, please, begin"

Getting up, he walked off to find a cloth. Lava watched him leave then turned the water back on, letting the shower warm up to something comfortable for her before stepping beneath the cascade.

The shower was enough to wash out most of the urine, but some bits remained stubborn as they stained her creamy fur. She tried to scrub the mess out of her fur with her paws, but that didn't work very well. Giving up on that, she laid on her back and tried her tongue, running the slightly rough surface over her right thigh

Giggling and blushing some more, Lava remembered back when Tyler and Shadow had first rescued her and the umbreon had walked in on her licking herself. Just recalling how Shadow had licked her, and later how Tyler had taken her in a bath tub very much like this one, made her get alittle warm. Pretty soon, her muscle strayed from her leg and brushed over her nether regions as alittle pink began to show.

The taste of piss was very strong on her swollen lips, but that just seemed to arouse her more as she continued licking. She ran her tongue just between her petals, barely parting them with the very tip of her tongue and letting some of her fluid dribble out. She softly mewed and spread her legs wider, digging just a bit deeper

"Here is my towel, I apologize that its somewhat worn..." lucario froze as he entered the bathroom carrying a cloth towel with afew holes and tears in it. He hadn't pulled the shower curtain closed when he left, so he could plainly see Lava slowly licking her crotch

It took a while for Lava to realize she was being watched and she meeped and pulled her head away, which now left her enflamed, bright pink pussy open for him to see, which he did. Meeping again, she tried to cover herself with her paws and closed her legs

"So-sorry," lucario stuttered, "I didn't re-realize you we-were, um, uh," turning beat red, he pulled his eyes free from her paws and placed the towel beside the tub before leaving again

"Oops..." she whined

___

Lucario paced back and forth in the office space

"What if she thinks I was peeping on her? What would she think? What if she hated me? What if she thinks I did it on purpose? What if I did!?"

He began pacing even faster

"Oh Arceus, Arceus, what am I going to do? Do I apologize? Do I act like it never happened? Gah! Oh Arceus, what about my love? Do I lie to her? What if she finds out? Oh Arceus!"

"U-um...Mr. lucario"

The jackal nearly jumped out of his skin at the soft mew. Once his heart settled alittle, he turned around, seeing the little stoat kneeling with her head low and her legs covering herself

"Yes?" he asked, not sure what else he could say

"I-I'm really sorry," she said softly, "I-I didn't realize that you were...um. You rescued me, and I haven't really...been very good"

"Do not fret," he told her even as his own worries sat calmly in his head, "you did not intend for it to happen. I Should apologize to you. I should have checked with my aura before entering"

"You-you could have done that?" she asked

"Um, well yes. Just a little glimps and, well I would have seen it. But you wouldn't have been intruded upon"

"I see," she said, "could-could you tell me how it works?"

"Perhaps, but you still require cleaning"

"Oh," she blushed, "would-would you like to help?"

"If you would wish it"

"I could use some help...I can't get everywhere"

Shadow yipped suddenly, waking up as a finger was shoved deeply into her pussy, which was still full of Slash's cum. Opening her eyes and looking around, she found that she had fallen asleep on her back with her hind legs spread wide open and her soaked groin on full display. It was actually Tyler fingering her while laying beside her and spooning Lava, the quilava still fast asleep. She purred and mewed, arching her back as her mate's finger began thrusting in and out of her quickly

"Ah...aaah...good morning to you too," Shadow greeted him, spreading her legs farther

"It's...ah... not even...two," Tyler informed her, his own gasps coming from his psychic link to her that caused them to share sensations and thoughts, including the felling of the digit repeatedly burying itself inside her snatch

"Aaah...well then we've...mmmm...got plenty of time for mmmmore fun, hm?"

The pleasuring finger was pulled free and wiped clean on her chest fur, "nope, we gotta get cleaned up"

"Awwww," Shadow whined

"We need to train, tomorrow's another gym battle"

"We didn't train for the other ones, why bother with this one?"

"Because, this one's gonna be in water, against someone who's team is stronger than the other two, and everone after her is gonna be even stronger"

Shadow groaned and rolled over. Tyler assumed she was going to go back to sleep, but a tickling pleasure emanating from her paw stroking over her engorged pussy proved him wrong. She mewed quietly and ground her soft paw pads into her vulva

"Really Shadow?"

"Hey, if you're not gonna do it, I will"

"Ok," Tyler said, getting up, laying Lava on the pillow, and grabbing a towel and soap from his pack, "guess you'd rather paw off on your own than take a nice hot shower with me. Have fun"

Going into the bathroom, he closed and locked the door before Shadow jumped from the bed and tried to follow him. Instead, she slammed into the door, the quick attack she'd used making her come to a humorous stop with her back legs leaving the ground for a moment

"Sorry Shade, but you wanted to stay in bed"

"Open this door or I rip it off its hinges," she growled

Knowing full well that she would gladly follow through with this threat, and that hed have to pay for the repairs, he threw open the door. Shadow pranced in, finding the shower already running

"Get in there you mess," Tyler commanded, holding the shower curtain open

"Hey, it's your fault"

"Not this time, you fucked Slash remember?"

"Oh yeah," she purred, "now I see why Lava likes him so much. Though it's still no comparison to you of course"

"Shower"

___________________

Lucario stood atop the flag pole, watching the pokémon storage area visible just across a stretch of beach. People filed in and out almost continuously to see the attractions there. He had to finish his quest here quickly and move on, but there was no way in without being seen except under dark, and he had missed his chance last night.

"I do not wish to put her through more," he said to himself, "but it is my only way"

With a sigh, he jumped over to a telephone pole and then onto a shopping mart and so on.

____________________

Lava yawned and stretched, having been put into half wakefulness by Tyler's movement, rolling off the pillow in the process and awakening fully. Getting to her feet, she shook herself and stretched her muscles. The tugs of her fur from the actions reminded her of the dried semen on her face, back, rear legs, and groin

Glancing around for Tyler, she only found Slash snoring at the foot of the bed, laying on his back with his limbs spread across the sheets, one leg even hanging over the edge. Her ears perked and swiveled her head over to the bathroom door where the telltale sounds of water splattering on tile, and some loud moans, told her that the other two were busy in the shower

Yawning again, wow she was tired, she walked over to Slash and curled up on his chest. Letting her eyes close, she purred and expected to return to sleep quickly. But as the minutes passed, and the sounds from the shower increased in volume, she just found herself groaning and the heat in her loins slowly rising

Eventually, she gave up and just laid on Slash, waiting for the others and, hopefully, her turn at bathing. One of her paws idly scratched the bony plates under her, the thick armor keeping Slash from being hurt. After a moment, he yelped suddenly and jerked, nearly throwing the stoat off

"What was that?" she wondered, watching Slash settle back down

Running her claws over his plates again, she tried to find what she'd hit. As she neared his pelvic plates, she noticed him twitch alittle, then he bucked suddenly when she touched a spot just an inch or two above the plate that covered his organ.

She managed to stay on and rubbed the spot gently. Slash whimpered and writhed, no longer quite as violent, like she was rubbing his cock. Speaking of which, the plate just below the spot split open, another spade-like structure rising. Behind that came the violet colored penis of his species, shoving the spade and his armor out of the way as it grew.

The two halves of armor pushed aside, the spade laid along the base of the length as it continued to grow to its usual five inches, slowly hardening and rising away. After only afew seconds of rubbing the spot, Lava had his cock half risen off his stomach. Licking her lips, she moved, still rubbing the spot, and let her tongue gently brush over his length.

Slash yipped and bucked repeatedly, but Lava kept running her tongue along his organ in a steady pattern, until it stood hard and twitching before her. Kneeling over the cock, she slowly ran her tongue over the pointed tip, flicking over and swirling around it. Slash yelped and bucked, his penis twitching and a little pre leaking onto her tongue as she worked him.

Slowly, her tongue travelled further down, until her lips touched the very tip. Parting her lips just slightly, she let the shaft slip into her maw. Slash mewed and thrust, pushing an inch or two in and out of her mouth. Pinning Slash down, she slowly worked her tongue and lips over him, descending down his length at a snail's pace. She swirled her tongue across the flesh, teasing the super sensitive ridges along the bottom and suckled tenderly on his tip

When she got around half way down, she eased her way back up, sucking and licking right back up to the tip then going back down, taking in an extra inch or so. She set a steady pace, slurping his cock while holding the writhing and moaning kabutops to the bed. Soon she was taking nearly the entire thing in and out, the tip just pressing against the opening to her throat. Taking a breath, she pushed down, deep throating his shaft, making him yowl and thrash. Lava smiled to herself and sucked hard on him, bobbing up and down faster, taking him all the way down each time.

By now, her pussy was not only wet, but pouring juices down her legs and twitching in the cold air, begging to be touched. While still sucking down Slash and his the plenty of pre he produced, her paw wound its way down her stomach, tweaking afew of her erected nipples on the way. Further down, the remains of Tyler's emissions tangled and caked her fur. But for now she didn't care, because her fingertips finally found her pussy and plunged in without a seconds delay

The stoat mewed loudly, speeding up on Slash and burying her paw inside her wet snatch. Slash cried out again, stiffening and pumping his hips in a poor rhythm witch Lava tried to match. Slash yelped and howled as her pleasured mews and purrs vibrated his cock and her tongue swirls across its surface.

*Squeek*

At first, Lava thought it came from Slash, but when she glanced up at him, she saw something blue in the corner of her eye, *eep*

Lucario stood frozen, half through the window, staring at Lava, whose mouth was still full of cock and whose fur was plastered in dried cum.

"Uh..."

Slash's dick popped out of her mouth and she pulled her paw away from her groin. She smiled nervously at lucario as he continued to be frozen in place.

"He-hey lu-lucar-cario," she mumbled

The jackal stared dumbfounded, unable to think of anything to say or do. He could just watch the stoat blush furiously and mumble with a bright blue cock beside her.

"Uhuh, I don't think so," Tyler said, exiting the bathroom and snapping the moment

"But it would be so much fun," his mate whined

"It's not fun, its vandalism"

"But it's just afew walls, she won't miss them"

"I said no-uh, hi"

Half way to the bed, the two noticed lucario standing on the window sill. He hastily grabbed his boxers and covered himself

"Please, make yourself at home, no need to sit there," Shadow told him

The action happened before anyone knew it had begun. In one leap, lucario propelled himself from the window to the bed, scooped up Lava, then kicked off the wall to land on the far side of the room, free arm up with a ball of swirling aura in his palm, his body between the others and Lava still in his grasp

"Luc (you)! Lucar luc lucar ario lucario lucar!" he roared at Tyler, who couldn't understand a word

The human, confused, tried to step closer and ask what was going on, but lucario cut him off with something that he was pretty sure meant 'stay the fuck away'.

"Luc lucario! Luc Lucario ario ar luca!"

"What did he say?" Shadow asked

'How would I know if you didn't?' Tyler asked sarcastically in his mind

"Just making-"

"Lucar! Lucario!!"

"Mr. Lucario," Lava meeped

"Lucar!! Lucario ario Luca!!"

"Lucario," she said louder

"Lucar!!"

"Quil!" she yelled

"Lu-lucario?" he asked, looking at her surprised

"Quil, quilava lava lava quil," she explained

"Luc?" he asked, looking back at him

"Quil, lava lava quil quilava," she told him

"Luc...cario ario luca lucario luc?"

"Quil lava quilava." she told him, then said shyly, " ava...quil...lava quil lava"

"Luc...cario lucario?" he quiried, utterly confused, "luc, cario luc lucario luc. Lucario luc ario luc luc?"

"Quil lava lava qquil," she explained, "quilava lava quil quil lava ava"

"Luc?"

"Quil"

"Lucario?" he asked quietly

"Quil"

"Luc," he said, lowering his hand, the aura sphere dissipating

"Quil," she purred, nuzzling his side

"What just happened?" Tyler asked

Shadow just shook her head

Lava looked over at them, "quil quil lava-ava, hehe. This is lucario, he's the one who saved me from Bradley"

"That, explains afew things," Tyler admitted

"He was just worried," she said, snuggling him, "cause he doesn't trust humans"

"If Bradley's all he's met than I don't blame him," Shadow retorted, jumping onto the bed and laying down

"He also met some trainers who tried to capture him"

"Still don't blame him," she commented, "so what's he want?"

"I don't know," she looked at lucario, "quil quil quil?"

"Luc, lucar luc"

"He wanted to ask something"

"Can I put some clothes on first?"

Lava blushed and nodded, speaking to lucario again while Tyler reentered the bathroom. He exited again with his boxers on. Grabbing his jeans, he put those on too and addressed lucario. The blue aura pokémon was now leaning on a wall with Lava at his feet, discussing something

"What did he want to ask?" Tyler queried

"He wanted to ask if you could get him into one of the buildings on the island," she explained

"And he needs our help because?" Shadow piped

"If he goes into the crowds, people might want to try and capture him"

"What place does he want to get into?" Tyler asked, putting a shirt on

"The pokémon storage building, where they keep the enslave-uh, captured pokémon for people to see"

"Don't like what you were going to say there," Tyler said, eying lucario, "he's not going to try and free everything is he?

"No, no," she said nervously, fearing she had screwed it up, "he just needs something from there, he's not here to free anyone. He says, that if we wanted to be free, we would rise up and break the control the humans have over us"

"Creepy," Shadow said, "and what control? I don't even have a pokéball"

"Not that you listened to me when you did"

The two stuck out their tongues at one another

"That's why he trusts you with it, because you're my friend and you don't seem to try and enslave us like other trainers do"

"He's got something else that keeps me around," Shadow teased

"Shade, not now. What is it that he wants?"

"He won't tell me, but he says that it isn't anything valuable to the humans there"

'Well?' Tyler started a mental conversation with Shadow, 'what do you think?'

'I think he's hot,' she restated

'Yeah, I've been hearing that since he showed up. Put your libido away for a moment'

'Fine, I think he might be trust worthy, but we should keep an eye on him. First mention of 'comrade' or 'proletariat', I shadow ball him'

'Sounds like a plan,' he added a sarcastic hint to his thought, "ok, we'll help him get in. I won't be able to stop some guy chucking a heavy ball at you"

"Luc. Luc lucar"

"He says 'fine. When do we go?'"

"Just let me clean up Lava and Slash and we can go"

Tyler walked towards Lava, but lucario placed his foot between them, glaring protectively.

"Its ok," she told him, "quil quil lava quil"

"Luc?"

"Lava"

He nodded and returned to his leaning pose, still watching Tyler as Lava joined him and Slash in the bathroom. A second later and the water could be heard splashing the bottom of the tub. The door closed, leaving lucario and Shadow alone

After a minute, Shadow spoke up, "so what's up?"

"Luc"

"Can you speak?"

"Lucario Luc ario car"

"Take that as a no"

"Luc"

"So then..."

The two remained silent, lucario shifting between watching the door, window, bathroom door, and Shadow. The umbreon laid on the bed, her gaze wondering, settling on lucario once in a while. His frame was sturdy but slender, built for endurance rather than brute strength like a machoke. His eyes had a rather piercing red stare, like he could see right through your body, down to your soul. His fur was cut short and clean, but was ruffled up somewhat. His face was handsome, not as good as Tyler's, but still pretty good. he smelled of aged wood and soil.

After afew minutes, the bathroom opened and Lava came out, her fur clean and brushed now. She immediately sat beside the bed and smile shyly.

After another couple minutes, Slash came out followed by Tyler.

"Ok, everyone's cleaned up," the trainer announced, getting dressed fully, "we can head out. Shadow, can you catch any balls thrown at lucario?"

She opened her mouth to say something

"Don't," he warned

She pouted, but nodded as well

"Let's go"

__________________

The new group of five managed the trip without many problems. Two pokéballs froze in mid air and a trainer challenged them, claiming they had stolen his capture. Shadow and Lava wiped out their team of five before even a sizable crowd formed.

The Pokémon Exhibit was only lightly occupied compared to the rest of the island, so they didn't have much hassle getting in. Tyler paid the small fee for him and the non-contained pokémon at the front desk before going in. the interior was arranged according to type, with many examples of native and exotic pokémon lounging around their habitats.

The single largest section was definitely the water, with large tanks and pools for the fishes to swim around in and mixed habitats for the semi aquatics. Lucario quickly led them through the habitats, giving dark glances at the captured pokémon

"Where are we going?" Shadow asked

"I don't know, Lava?" Tyler addressed their friend

"I-I don't know...he just said something a-about a scale"

"A scale?"

"As in a weight?" Shadow tried to clarify

"No, a fish scale, I-I think"

"Luc," lucario interjected

The group had stopped in front of a huge pool sunken into the floor and filled with clear water, a rail keeping people from falling in. Afew people were gathered around the exhibit, leaning over the rails and calling to the currently absent pokémon

"What's supposed to be in there?" Tyler queried

"GYAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

The question was answered in a huge splash of water as a gyarados reared up. There were cheers and yells as water rained down on the patrons. The gyarados continued to put on a show of swimming around the pool, lunging down threateningly at the people every so often, getting even more adulation.

"Gya gya gya!" the gyarados laughed, loving it

A second of the giant serpent popped up, joining the first in showing off for the crowds. Every so often, the two would clash and play fight for a moment before separating and returning to their routines. The entire performance was rather entertaining

"Luca, luc luca," lucario said, shaking his head slowly

"Quil...quil lava," Lava asked, concerned

"Luc," he agreed, then turned to her, "luc lucario car luc io lucar"

"Quil lava quil?" she asked, looking sad

"Luc," he said, then knelt down and scratched her ear, assuring her, "luc lucar cario, lucario luc cario luc luc cario"

"Quil"

"Luc luc"

"Quil"

Standing up, he looked at Tyler and Shadow, "Luc cario luc"

"What did he say?" the two asked

"H-he said 'you better take care of her,'" Lava answered

"Where's he going?"

The jackal leapt onto the rails and then onto one of the sea serpents.

"What the?" the gyarados exclaimed, twisting around to see what had grabbed onto him

"You have a lucario on you," the other said

"Well get it off!"

"I apologize but I require one of your-GAH!"

Lucario was hit by a hydro pump and tossed into the pool. He came up after a moment coughing

"As you wish"

He grabbed ahold of one of the two's tail and swung up onto the other's head

"Pest!" the gyarados growled and thrashed about

The other one fired off a hydro pump trying to hit him, but just ended up striking his partner instead, "oops, sorry"

"Idiot, GRAAAH!"

Lucario clung to the gyarados as tightly as he could with one arm around the spine on his forehead. His other hand was busy with a ball of aura spinning in his palm

He offered a "sorry," before slamming his aura sphere into the monster's head

"GAAAAH!" he roared, falling into the pool with lucario

After a moment, the little blue pokémon came up with a dark blue scale clutched in his fingers

"Jerk!" the remaining gyarados roared and tried to swat at him

Lucario tried to dodge, but was too slow in the water and was sent flying out of the pool and into one of the tanks, thankfully not damaging it. He slowly slid down the glass until he landed in a heap on the floor. Lava ran over to help him followed by the group, but were stopped by a group of guards and tamers that surrounded lucario

The woozy gyarados rose to the surface and examined the place his armor had been ripped out of. Nothing too bad, just stung and it would grow back. He was still pissed though

"Get out of my way," Tyler growled, pushing his way through the crowd

"Luc..." he groaned, rubbing his head

"Quil?" Lava asked, putting her paw on his arm

"Luc? Lucario cario luc"

"Quil," she chirped happily

"Hey, he ok?" Tyler asked

"Mhm," she told him

Lucario stood and glared at the humans around him, "luc cario"

"Quil quil, lava qui lava quil"

"Luc," he growled

"He wants th-them to get away from hi-him," Lava said, looking at Tyler

"Ok," he turned to the people, "get away from him, he won't do anything, I'll control him if he does"

"Luc," lucario scoffed

"Quil lava quilava lava ava lava quil," Lava assured him

"Luc"

Afew of the tamers and guards were dismissed, but a couple stayed, mostly to make sure Tyler paid for any damages. They managed to get out fairly easily, Tyler apologizing to the gyarados profusely

"Luc," lucario thanked Lava, still clutching the scale, which Tyler had to pay quite a bit for

"quil, quil lava quil uil"

He turned to the human, "luc luc cario"

"He says 'thank you'"

"No problem, we owed you for saving Lava"

"Luc," he turned back to the ferret, "lucario"

"Quil," she waved as he jumped away

"He said bye," Shadwo guessed

"Mhm, he needs to finish his quest"

"Well, good luck to him," Tyler said
