Cursory Encounter
#7 of Cursed discovery
Saywa awoke first. The rasping and clawing of the vines was still waning. He stood guard until the sun rose. He was angry when he had learned that Julie had failed to bar the door during her previous stay. However since they were there anyway he decided to add a new lock as he sat guard. Hearing a groan he glanced to the shinx and pikachu that were cuddled together. Watching them as the sun began to rise. With a sigh he ground the torch into the dirt of the floor and stood. Unbarring the door he took a tool from a satchel that hung on his hip, and began to remove the damaged locks from the door. He sneered as he looked at the mangled locks. "How careless... though, it isn't the first time it has happened..." he mumbled as he fished through his satchel. He pulled out a thick latch and a matching hook. Mumbling about how it was lucky he had a set on him.
Julie mumbled as she tried to sit up. A lightly shaking weight pinning her down. Opening her eyes she saw Turbo draped over her belly. His legs shaking about in small motions. Julie stared at them in disbelief. It seemed he was literally incapable of remaining still. Not once had she yet seen him not moving in some way. Though an idea occurred to her to test it... then an image of him exploding shot through her mind. She then began to have second thoughts about making him stop moving. Her tail idly wagged between her legs as she watched the pink shinx sleep. Smiling to herself at how cute he looked. He sneezed and she giggled... his legs suddenly flew straight and she smiled... he began to hump her side and she panicked. Throwing him from her and scooting away shouting "No! ... NO!!" Shaking her head as she tried to ignore the tempting thoughts. Meanwhile Turbo was groggily getting to his paws. His tail whipping around as his head hung for a moment. Then as though a switch had been flipped he began sprinting around the house asking "Breakfast!? Breakfast??" His sprint slowing as he looked around the mostly empty hut. Bouncing in place as he began sniffing around. Julie was staring at him incredulously. Then she mumbled "What are you..." Turbo twitched his ears and turned to Julie and sprinted straight at her shouting "BREAKFAST!!!" His sudden sprint and shout startling the pikachu and she screamed at him to stop. Saywa had at that moment entered the hut. His arms filled with several kinds of strange berries and vines. A couple odd flowers poking out of the bundle. The bundle slipped lower in his grip as he stared at the sight before him. Turbo was trying to suckle milk from Julie yet not getting anywhere. Saywa gulped uncomfortably before saying "Um... I'm going to be preparing breakfast... whatever this is... don't tell me about it... I, don't want to know..." He then turned and stepped outside while Julie screamed "Help me!!"
Julie stumbled outside nearly a half hour later. Tenderly rubbing at her nipples as she grumpily stated "Thanks for the help." Saywa looked up from the cooking fire and said "Hey, I did NOT, want to get involved with... whatever that was." Julie huffed and sat nearby asking "What do you need to cook? Isn't that all veggies?" Saywa then handed her a slice of vine and said "Take a bite of that." Julie just stared at it for a moment. It was a deep green and felt like old celery. The slices in the sides happened to resemble a more cylindrical version of celery and was the same green. She glanced to Saywa questioningly and without even looking up from the cooking vine segments he answered "Just take a bite." Sighing, Julie bit into the vine. Expecting it to taste like some kind of veggie. However it felt and tasted like biting into meat. A squirt of some kind of grease sprayed onto her face and she tore the section free. Blinking in surprise as she chewed. Pleasantly surprised that there was a kind of meat available. Even more pleased that the pointed end of the vine led to the possibility that it might not have even been a pokemon. Once she swallowed she asked "What is it?" Saywa smiled and answered "Grasper vine. No, they aren't dangerous. A grasper simply tries to get a hold of you, but there are things that resemble graspers that are dangerous. Just then something slammed into the inside of the door. Moments later Turbo pulled the door open and staggered outside. Mumbling "Hungry..." and after shaking himself he spotted the pile of grasper vines. "Ooh!! Grasper!!!" he shouted before sprinting to the pile of cooked vine slices. Snatching one in his jaws before continuing his sprint to a spot off by himself. The three of them ate their fill. Turbo was still eating even after he had matched what Saywa and Julie had eaten together. Julie stared at the shinx in awe and said "He just, keeps eating..." Saywa chuckled and said "The energetic ones do that." Placing small packets of the ground flowers into his satchel. He then looked to Julie and said "So you really don't know anything about what happened?" Julie shook her head as she said "No. I just woke up. I met a mew, and after I panicked... she and a Victini kept me hidden as they tried to find a way to get me out. Then... this thing came... and... was angry." Saywa sighed and said "Florona..." Julie nodded as she added "Yeah... a Jirachi came and helped me get out. She told me to go north. So... that's what I'm doing. Going north."
The rest of the morning passed as Saywa told Julie about himself. He told her about how his parents were among those that had been the first to flee to the north. Florona's hold seeming weaker there. That they raised him with the early resistance. Of his parents deaths when the resistance was first attacked. That he was soon raised by the head of defense in the northern resistance. Arashi Chugi. That she raised him for a couple weeks before he began to care for the trail of seemingly abandoned safe houses and underground hideaways. Saying that nothing else of note had happened after then before meeting Julie.
They spent the rest of the day preparing the supplies they would need for a couple days travel. Since the safe spots were each about a days travel away from each other and Saywa was adamant in the fact that he wanted to have full days of travel whether they needed it or not. Saying that he'd rather be at their destination with plenty of time to spare then cut it too close and get someone hurt or killed. Julie hesitantly agreed. Not wanting to have to spend any longer than absolutely necessary in this hut. Turbo didn't weigh in whatsoever. Spending his time sprinting around and eating the food they had gathered. Saywa made a note of teaching the kid what in the forest was edible so he could deforest their surroundings. Instead of devouring their entire food supply in a single meal.
By the time the sun had set Julie sat guard over their food. "For the last time Turbo! NO!! You can't have a snack!" The shinx blinked and vibrated across the ground as he asked "Why not miss Julie?" Julie stepped to the side to remain in front of him as she said "Because you'll, EAT IT ALL!!" He pouted and leaned to the side. Falling over soon after and staring up at the pikachu. "Can I just have one vine?" he asked as he climbed back to his paws. Julie grumbled and asked "Saywa? Is there any rope in here?!" The sandshrew smirked as he laid out a pile of inanimate plant pieces. Forming a rather cozy mattress from them. He then looks over to Julie as he finishes his adjustments and says "If by rope you mean woven thread vines then yes." He reaches into his satchel, the nightly sounds of vines beginning. The more active of the carnivorous plants waking up to feed. The shrew walked across the largely empty hut as he pulled out some green ropes.
Florona stood at a window at the top of her tower. A well dressed human stood on the far side of the room. He appeared to be someone important. Florona suddenly grinned and said "So, my sisters have decided to show themselves. At least two of them have." She chuckled and turned around to face the human who winced as he was now the focus of her attentions. Florona's fangs were visible as she grinned and stated "You don't have much to be concerned about. I want the other regions to fear me. So you will survive to deliver this message." She floated up to the human and snugly wrapped her tail around his neck. Not tight enough to impede his breathing but enough to cause discomfort. "You will tell them that the shores may impede my influence today, but soon I will have the ability to reach other lands. Now go." She released the man and placed a tiny seed in his shirt collar. Waving towards the door she said "Go on. Shoo. Before I decide to keep you and make a new toy." Her grin widened as the man couldn't help but flee from the room. The rest of the world was getting desperate. They tried to destroy her. They threw everything they had and it failed horribly. It was only through intervention from her sisters that she didn't have a foothold in the other regions. Primarily Aquari. She had dominion over water and was the first to step up. Halting Florona's influence near the coast.
Florona wrapped her twin vines around her waist as she drifted over to a coffee machine. Preparing her special blend. The contents including powdered bones and pieces of meat. It was a mix that only she seemed to enjoy. Once the machine was set and brewing she left it and drifted across her personal quarters. Gazing towards her large window again as she came to rest on a large cushy bed that had the third closest to the wall angled towards the window. She enjoyed spending the nights watching the activities of her servants and pets. Though if she hadn't been so bloodthirsty when she began her takeover, and spared some of the more useful humans she might have some gizmos to use. Though as it is she can't figure out how they work and she just doesn't have the patience to give the more tech savvy pokemon long enough to figure them out.
After a good while of watching her city and having some of her special coffee there was a very quiet knock on her door. She sipped from her cup and opened the door. Grinning widely as she saw who it was. "Oh, Micunta. Why aren't you with Viscer?" She asked rhetorically. Micun stood with her eyes half lidded and her ears hanging down. The tips were a bright red and so where Micun's cheeks as she panted. She gave Florona a plaintive look as she ignored Florona's question and pleaded "Please... I... I need relief... it... I... need it... so... soo baaaaaaad." Her voice cracking as tremors ran through her limbs from the torturously intense need in her. A need far worse than anyone else in this corrupted region. A need caused by Victor's new form. Florona clicked her tongue before saying "Aw, too bad. I gave you away." Micun's eyes widened as Florona closed the door. The mew teared up and turned around. She couldn't get anyone else in the tower to even touch her. Her agony growing every second and Viscer was out hunting Julie. Micun brokenly began to stagger back to her new room. All thoughts of helping the resistance gone as her agony forced her to cling to the only thing that can make it better. Viscer's return.
Within the hour following sunrise Julie, Saywa and Turbo were on the move. Traveling the route north and with Saywa's guidance avoided many of the dangers. Turbo had more then once irritated something that after the encounter left him with souvenirs. Though Saywa had been noticing abnormalities recently. He didn't voice his concerns so he would scare Julie. Turbo didn't really seem to be scared of anything. The shinx being curious and investigating everything new. Leaving Saywa to need to keep an especially close eye on him.
Turbo bounded around the path. Zigzagging and doubling back due to his much faster pace. He could run out of sight behind them and then run past them to vanish out of sight that way. The kid had limitless energy as he could do that all day and not be tired out. Julie's nerves were rather frayed from the frequently chattering shinx. He could be silent for an hour and then out of nowhere have a billion things to talk about. None of them having anything in common. The pikachu kept to the cliff face on the left side of the path. Running her paw along its surface as they continued along. The endless forest that only opened into fields near occupied cities stretched out to the right. They had just recently reached high enough to look out over the canopy. Looking over her shoulder to Saywa, Julie asked "How much further?" The Shrew glanced to the evening sun and said "A bit further yet." He smiled and added "Though once we near the top of the range I can pass you off to the resistance. From there on you'll be more comfortable. Those shelters are more comfortably maintained." He was nearly bowled over as Turbo bolted up to him asking "Is there snow?!" Saywa nodded and said "Yes. There is snow." Turbo stood trembling for a moment before leaving a cloud of dust behind as he dashed off ahead. Julie watched him vanish from sight before murmuring "I hope he doesn't come back..." "Julie. You know he will." Saywa said as he stepped up to Julie's side. She sighed and looked at the ground as her ears hung down and replied "I know..." Minutes later Turbo returned yelling "It's gonna get me!!" Kicking up a trail of dust as he shot past Julie and Saywa. The two of them stopped and Julie asked "What did he piss off this time?" A screech sounded before Saywa could reply. The sound sending chills through them as something was heading towards them from where Turbo had been. Saywa put an arm in front of Julie and sternly told her "Get Turbo and try to get past it." Julie looked to him and fearfully asked "What are you gonna do?" He dropped his pack and pulled a sizeable chunk of stone from the cliff face as he simply said "Get it's attention." Holding the stone over his head and glancing to Julie. "GET TURBO NOW!!" Julie stumbled against the cliff wall before nodding and running to get Turbo. Saywa widened his stance as he held the stone. Waiting for the creature to get closer. Narrowing his eyes as he prepared to throw the rock. Then with a shout he hurled the rock with both paws. Sending it flying for the creature as Saywa curled into a tight ball and kicked up plenty of dust as he spun in place for a brief moment. Shooting off towards the creature just as it dodged the rock. He came at the creature hoping to push it towards the edge. Only it opened its four petal jaw and screeched as it tried to grasp the spinning sandshrew with its jaws. Needled vines jabbing at his hide from the beasts crest. It held firmly until all of Saywa's rotation had been spent. The beast held Saywa in place as it pounded his thick hide with its vines. Trying to gnaw through with its jaws all the while.
Julie ran as quickly as she could trying to catch up to Turbo. Though she soon stopped after realizing that she wouldn't be able to catch up to Turbo. That shinx could outrun her even when he wasn't spooked. His being scared meant she would not catch up with him if he had kept running. She rubbed her face as she turned around. She half screamed as she came eye to eye with a pair of large green eyes. She had clasped her paws over her mouth as she had realized it was Turbo in mid scream. Panting for a moment to get over her shock before she said "Turbo... we... we need to go that way," as she pointed down the path. Turbo jumped a couple feet into the air before saying "NONONONONONONONO!!! IT'LL EAT ME!!!" Running straight into the cliff face. Julie got to her feet before saying "If we run this way it'll get us anyway. We can't get anywhere safe!!" She gestured frantically and added "Saywa is distracting it! Our only chance is to get past the thing and run for the safety of the resistance!" Turbo scratched at the cliff seemingly trying to dig into the rock as Julie tried to persuade him. "Turbo! If we stay here or go down the mountain we die! We need to go past that thing to live!" She yelled at the panicking shinx. Turbo scratched at the rock for a few seconds before looking to Julie and sniffling a little and asked "Will it eat us?" Julie sighed and said "Not if we run fast enough." Turbo gulped and trembled a bit before saying "Kay!" and dashing off ahead. Julie sighed and said "I'm gonna die," before she ran off after Turbo.
The creature was wearing down Saywa's endurance. Persistently gnawing away at him as it smacked and stabbed at his back with its vines. Saywa was nearing his limit of how much he could endure. He was beginning to lose his ability to stay balled up when Turbo shot past. The beast spat him out and turned its head. Saywa bounced and landed on his feet before staggering backwards. Fighting to keep his eyes open. He stared at the beast as he tipped forward and fell to his handpaws. Panting as he grabbed fistfuls of sand from the path. The beasts head turned back towards him as Saywa heard Julie coming. Gritting his teeth he pushed himself up and threw one fistful of sand at the beasts four portioned face. Getting a snarl from the beast and it lunged forward. Sinking its teeth into Saywa's tender belly. He coughed and said "Run... Julie... Run..." As he dropped the sand he was still holding onto. His flesh being torn as the beast began to thrash around. Jabbing some of its needles into Saywa's neck as the sandshrew's eyes drifted shut.
Julie closed her eyes as she ran past Saywa as the beast sank its teeth into him. She ran on all fours as fast as she could. Turbo would get there first. His boundless energy guaranteed that. Though a shriek behind her sent shivers down her spine and a glance over her shoulder confirmed that the beast was following her. She turned her eyes ahead of her and shook tears from her eyes as she continued to sprint. Her already tired legs were getting heavy. Along with the rest of her. She choked back a sob as she realized she might not make it. The thing was closing in on her and it was getting harder to keep running. She screamed out as one of her paws caught on a rock and she stumbled several steps before a solid heavy weight pressed her chest into the rocky path. Scratching her up and even cutting into her flesh. The pain burned as the beast's weight shifted on her back. It sniffed at her head for a moment before licking her cheek. Julie grasped at the path in front of her as the thick slime dripped to her nose. Carrying the scent of male and her reaction was near instant. Her folds were soaked in only a couple seconds and she flushed. Her dormant needs all coming to the forefront and quickly overwhelming her. The beasts cock pressed to her sopping folds and began to press inside when its weight vanished from her back. A thump beside her and with a half lidded gaze Julie looked to see a battle scarred pikachu kneeling beside her. The chu was missing the tip of her left ear and as the chu looked to her Julie could see the right side of her face. It had a large jagged scar that began just over her right eye and traveled around the eye before dropping through most of her cheek pouch and along her neck. She reached to the eel skin grip of a sheathed blade that hung from her left hip. It seemed specifically forged for her and her alone. Her gaze became intense as she turned her gaze back to the beast that had leapt off of Julie. This new chu took a couple steps towards it. Her right handpaw rested loosely on the grip of her blade as she walked. Her robe was tied off at her waist with a sash. Her approach towards the creature was leisurely. With a powerful voice she said "Leave monstrosity. You are out of your league." Her eyes narrowing as the beast screeched and leapt at her. She swayed to the left and drew her blade. It flashed in the air and she spun around as a spray of green blood left the beasts severed shoulder. One of its forelegs lay on the ground as it thrashed its mane of vines. It spun around and shrieked at this chu. Beginning to pace towards the ledge before it leapt of the side. Vanishing into the canopy. The chu ran the back of her blade along the end of the scabbard before smoothly transitioning to sheathing it as the point reached the opening. She stepped up to Julies side before lifting the unconscious pikachu and carrying her along the path as the sun began to set.
Julie slowly opened her eyes. Her chest was bandaged up and a blanket wrapped around her. She felt hot. Not the normal discomfort of being too warm, but a feeling as though she were burning yet comfortable. She shifted in the bed a little as she looked around. Her folds ached and her mouth and throat were dry and sore. Trying to sit up before a hand suddenly pressed her back down. A human woman shushing her and saying "It's okay. You're safe." The woman lifted a bottle that had a nipple on it. She placed it to Julie's lips and said "Here. This should help you feel a little better." Julie grabbed hold with her lips and began to suckle from it. Her sore mouth and throat being soothed by the pure chilled water. She suckled for a few minutes before the woman pulled the bottle away and said "There. Now rest. You need to recover from that poison." The woman then left the room and as she closed the door a firm voice asked "How is she?" The human looked down and saw the battle worn pikachu. "She's recovering. After two days she's finally awake." The woman answered as the pikachu nodded. Her wakizashi wasn't on the chu's hip. She nodded and said "Tell me as soon as she's healthy enough for travel. I want to escort her when I return to HQ." The woman nodded and answered "Will do Miss Chugi." The woman then went about her duty as the pikachu took a step back. A pink blur rushing by where she had been standing and slamming into the wall. "Evening Turbo." She stated as Turbo staggered back from the solid wood wall. Wriggling his nose as a little blood leaked from his nostril. He shook off the pain before asking "Missus Arashi! Is she okay?!" Arashi nodded and said "Yes. As a matter of fact she just woke up." The scarred pikachu grasped Turbo's tail before he could barge into the room and added "Though you can't speak to her just yet. That things poison did a number on her. Give her until morning before you tackle her." Turbo's ears twitched and he blinked his green eyes before saying "I don't want to wait that long..." Arashi held onto his tail and dragged him away from the door saying "You will."
Florona stared at the pokemon Viscer returned with. She smirked and said "Now I'll be able to get some information on how this resistance that keeps being spoken of hides." Pressing the sandshrew onto his back with her tail to view his erect shaft. A green leafy pichu climbing up onto the healing shrew's belly as Florona grinned. "You have all day to get what you need Jenny. Take your time. Once your done you can plant a seed and make yourself a new pet." The pichu grinned wickedly as she slid her folds down the shrew's shaft. Tiny tendrils snaking out of her folds and into the sandshrew's sheath. Bending forward she licked across the drugged pokemon's chest. He gasped and half opened his eyes as he looked around. Jenny placed a finger on his lips and with a fang filled grin said "Relax. Panicking won't help you." The sandshrew gasped again as something pressed against the opening of his shaft. It began to worm its way inside and tiny hairy barbs grabbed onto his flesh inside his shaft as the tendril traveled ever deeper. The hairs lighting up his pleasure nerves as they dug into his flesh. The outside of his shaft getting the same treatment by the countless tendrils rubbing around his shaft. He wriggled in pleasure induced agony as every nerve in his shaft was activated. The pichu ran a razor sharp claw along the shrew's neck as she asked "What's your name?" Her tone deceptively innocent. "S-Saywa!" He shouted out as the pichu rotated her hips. She grinned widely as she began to nibble at his neck. Her razor sharp teeth having a shockingly delicate touch. She then lifted her head and in a sultry tone asked "Where did Florona's newest creation find you hmm?" Her unique cunt's tiny vines began to coil around Saywa's shaft and massage it. Sending stronger waves of pleasure through him. "I... I was... was escorting... someone..." Jenny narrowed her eyes a little and kissed Saywa's chin as she said in a mildly irritated tone "It's no use fighting the sensations. It feels good so why not give in?" Saywa panted and answered "Because... it's evil..." Jenny giggled a bit before she said "Oh, is that why? Well why is it evil hmm?" Saywa blinked his glassy and remained silent for a few moments. Then said "I... I don't know..." Smiling Jenny rubbed her paws along his chest as she said "Oh, if that's so why continue to fight it? You don't know why it's evil and yet you fight. You should stop fighting it. It feels great doesn't it?" She emphasized her point by lifting her hips and dropping down. The sudden blast of pleasure drawing an orgasm from him. Jenny moaned as she fed on the fluids being injected within her. Her toxins keeping Saywa erect and boosting his cum production. He would be ready to give her another dose soon, though she also had to milk answers from him. "It's wrong..." Saywa answered as his afterglow lingered longer then it should have. Weakening his resistance as he relaxed. Jenny continued to coax him in this manner for several hours. Eventually getting the answers Florona desired. "-at the top... of the range... are series of... buildings... they... they belong to the resistance... help heal and restore those fleeing..." Saywa gasped out before Jenny bounced her hips and rewarded him with another orgasm. She smiled with an open mouth as the large load her toxins had him deposit caused her green fur and leaves to become even more vibrant. She then kissed Saywa before whispering "Now I have all I need from you. You can rest your mind. You won't be needing it ever again." Her tendril that had been inside Saywa's urethra withdrew. As did all her other tendrils as she began to pant. Her lumpy belly shifting as one of the lumps began to travel down her tunnel. "You will have a better life. A life without petty concerns or even those pesky thoughts or worries of survival," Jenny stated as the lump continued along her tunnel. Pausing as it pressed against the tip of Saywa's shaft. The objects semi-pointed end easily slipped inside the shrew's urethra. His shaft easily swallowing up the seed as it was pushed along. It began to grow little tendrils as its entry triggered yet another orgasm. Saywa's cum fertilizing the egg and making it grow. Taking root in the base of his shaft and giving him a knot. Jenny stood up and ran a finger along her folds. Collecting her sap that had gathered there and licking it off her finger. Grinning as she said "I'll be back to break you in after I give Florona that information you gave me." The sandshrew writhed around as his shaft swelled in size. Taking on a dark green shade as the seed shrank down. The plant merging with Saywa. His eyes wide in terror as he could feel the tendrils under his skin. It didn't hurt but he could feel them, changing him. It reached towards his head and with a gasp Saywa was no longer afraid. His expression of terror turning into a dopey grin as his hide turned green. A layer of moss sprouting across his back. His belly becoming smooth and soft. His eyes turning blank as he curled up. Deepthroating his own shaft as he became little more than a decoration piece until Jenny needed him. His coat of moss able to turn light into enough energy to sustain him.
