“More strength! I want to hear your opponent's bones crack!" Hiroaki shouted.

Huan, Hiroaki's greninja, was training brutally under his trainer. He held the title of Super Elite, and as such, standards for him were set very high. He was fighting three of Hiroaki's other pokemon at once, a sylveon, named Sunset, the absol Kier, and finally his lucario Anna. Each were vicious and skilled, though Huan still was a force to be reckoned with. Kier lunged in, biting down hard on Huan's arm. Anna took this opportunity to use a power up punch in Huan's back, knocking him off balance.

“Move faster!" Hiroaki continued to shout.

Huan used a water shuriken to free himself from Kier, then retreated up into the trees, where he was quickly intercepted and taken down, bruising his entire front badly.

“I am ashamed to call myself your trainer!" Hiroaki finally shouted.

Huan hastily wrestled Kier to get back to his feet, but little did he know that Sunset was preparing for him. As he got back to his feet, he was struck savagely hard by a moonblast in the chest. Huan could hear a crack, and felt deep pain in his ribs, feeling them break and splinter under the devastating blow. He was flat on his back, unable to move and tearing up from the sheer pain.

Hiroaki approached to check on his pokemon, disappointment on his face.

“This is how one of my greatest battlers performs?" he asked, the frown on his face heavy, “Disgraceful. Death itself did not, and could not stop Pinwheel. That is something you must strive for,"

Hiroaki signaled for his audino, who, along with other pokemon, helped carry Huan away to heal him. He needed a full day to recover, being given potions and tasteless mashed potatoes in small rations throughout it.

“How is he?" Hiroaki asked Excalibur.

“He's hurt, but he'll be back in action soon," she replied.

“Good, he's been getting rusty recently and I need to fix that," Hiroaki said, “can I trust you to watch the camp while I head out to town?"

“Do you always have to ask that, Hiroaki?" she said, “I should be asking if you'll be all right on your own,"

“Fair enough," Hiroaki checked his watch as it neared the afternoon, “I should be on my way, take care of everyone,"

They shared a quick kiss before he left, and waved as each went their own way. Excalibur turned to face the camp, watching all the pokemon play and socialize in the haven of the mountains. She smiled, and gathered a few up to help her with the evening meal for when Hiroaki returns.

“Might as well surprise him when he gets back,"

Huan was humiliated, struck hard both by Hiroaki's pokemon and his words. He had been over indulging recently and that had cost him greatly. The new diet was in many ways destructive to his highly demanding lifestyle. Pokepuffs, candies, and oily poke food all combined with some recent laziness had made Huan slow and weak. It was clear with the potatoes every hour that he was being cut off, and switched back to high protein food and supplements packed with vitamins and nutrition.

The potions had started taking effect now, and his once ravaged ribs were restored with only minor cracks in them. He had even heard news of Sunset wanting to bake him a cake to apologize. A cake that he, obviously, couldn't eat. He rose slightly from the ground, looking around Hiroaki's cottage.

“How are you feeling?" Excalibur asked as she walked in to check on Huan, “I hear you got quite a beating,"

Huan groaned in response, still feeling a light ache in his chest from his battle.

“Listen, Huan," Excalibur began, “Hiroaki has been gone for a while now, it's already dark and I'm starting to get worried,"

Huan made a light greninja without looking over.

“No it's not because I wanted to mate with him tonight!" Excalibur shouted, “It's almost midnight and he said he'd be back before sundown. He said something about cutting through the woods to get there, know anything about that?"

Huan was suddenly wide eyed in fear, as he sprung up, bounded out the door and down the slope.

Excalibur watched him with surprise, “Now I'm really worried,"

Hiroaki opened his eyes slowly, being greeted to a dark and moist forest whose leaves were closing around him.

“What the hell…?" Hiroaki breathed, taking in his surroundings.

He slowly leaned forward, lifting his body. He felt a sharp pain shoot through his body, forcing him to look to its source. Deep cuts across his chest and limbs, all of them pouring blood with each movement.

“O-Okay, that's… that's my blood… that's a lot of my blood…" he said, laying back down to rest.

He looked over to his left, seeing his backpack leaning by a tree, partially open. He could see his medicine pocket open, with bandages poking out. Hiroaki inched over to his bag, wincing at each motion that shot pain through his body. With difficulty, he reached his bag, pulling the bandages and binding his wounds.

“I have to find the camp," he said, pulling his phone out.

There was a growl in the distance, along with blue eyes watching him in the distance.

“Fuck, that can't be…" fear settled deep within Hiroaki's bones, “Hunter?"

It pounced.
