An adult in Pokemon - Chapter 55 Neo Cerulean Part 3 Bill's folly Empress declaration Not Edited

“I rather not. But feel free to get yours done there. I found another place to get mine done. I can also take a ball crafting course while I wait.” Gray looked at June and smiled a little. “Gives you time to spend with your buddy. His research.. I rather you learn it.”

“Bah, come on Gray. Wait why me to learn it?”

“Because then I get to have more reasons to spend time with you.” Gray wrapped her in hug and looked at her. “You think I am not thinking of more was to get closer to you?”

“Umm.. I am not a teenage girl. Those sweet words won’t work on me.” June said embarrassed. She, however, did not move free. “You like research. I always see you reading. Think of what you can learn while listening to him talk, instead of learning from me after.” She was trying her best to make Gray social in her mind.

“Haaa, I will show up after my errands ok?”

“Ok.”

“No.” Gray leaned down and kissed her. It started to get heavy until June’s pokegear went off. “Of all the times.”

“Its Bill. He has something to show me. Can you teleport me to his place before you start your errands?”

“No problem.” Focus his psychic energy, Gray brought right to the field by the house. With a quick peck on the cheek he left. “Smooch, bye June.” Just as fast as he arrived he disappeared.

“Haaa, life is good.” June walked into Bill’s place. She was not ready for what was inside. ‘Chroma what do you think?’

“It is good when Gray is around yes.’ Chroma’s voice was a little strained.

Gray appeared back in the first town that he sold everything at before. Walking to the casino in his disguise was still easy. After talking with the shopkeeper and getting the fissile restored he walked out and went to a cafe on foot.

‘Hmm a Tyruny how weird.’ Gray held the little dino and walked around till he found a ball specialty shop. “Excuse me in Pokeballs that help with gaining experience?”

“Well.. not really for the nowadays Trainer. Have the Walk Ball but no one buys those anymore.” The old shop keep said. “Everyone wants the fancy stuff nowadays. Love Ball and Fast Balls. Back in my day, the old wind up ball was the best we had till the apricorn balls became more easier to craft. Then the blasted mass produce balls. Blasted Silph Company.”

The old man went it deep detail about the history of Pokeballs. Gray listened intently with the baby Tyrunt just biting at his fingers. Every now and then Gray had to give a hard knock on the head to keep from eating his clothes. It learned fast enough. Settling for his fingertips instead. The shop keep talked another two hours before finishing.

“You listened to my whole story. With no complaints.”

“Hohoho nice. Let me see.” The old man grabbed one after putting gloves on. After a 10 minute cursory inspection he sighed heavily. “Five years to late. A little more and the Pokemon could have been saved.”

“Well that bites. Can we fix enough to give it a proper burial?”

“Yes. It will cost you though.” Seeing give his approval the old man went to work. A fast 30 minutes and the ball was welded back togethor. A weird pokemetal according to the shopkeeper. “All done. Would you like me to do the others?”

“Yes. I will wait here.” Gray grabbed the ball and was weirded out by the power inside. Once restored he felt a strong Dark aura emitting from inside. ‘What in blazes is inside here I wonder?’

(Pokemon Darkrai has perished. Would you like to revive? -15 Aura.)

‘Yeah hell no. That is way to much of a loss for me currently. Sorry Drakrai but better luck next time.’ Gray felt bad but nothing could come out weaking himself like that. As if the Pokemon understood the aura left the ball and entered him. ‘That was a little chilly.’

(Darkrai blessing obtained. The soul of Darkrai has found peace inside your soul. It looks forward to the day of revival. Aura increased by 1.)

‘Hmmm very well.’ Gray put the ball in his key pocket and watched the old shopkeeper work when the man took a break he sent messages to his friends and June last. Her response was only a little angry but she understood that he would be back for the second half of the lecture. At least she is having fun with Bill.’

“Here you go. that will be 675 all togethor.”

“Here you go.” Gray gave him 800. “Addituonal for the history lesson as well discretion.” Pocketing the items in his pocket he felt the aura before hand. All dark type with one fairy mixed in. Which was odd to say the least. “Oh, 1200 for the Walk Ball.” Buying it, he tapped Tyrunt which fell asleep. The ball shook once before locking. A bubble appeared.

(Walk Ball: The more steps the Trainer takes the more experience the Pokemon gains when returning to the ball to rest.)

“Thank you for the patronage.” The old knew there was something off about Gray. But since he was polite and caused no trouble he bit the bullet and had to ask. “Would you care to learn my trade?”

“I would like that a lot. I would have to come another time however. My friend is expecting me to attend something.” Gray smiled under the hoodie. “Here is a way to contact me. Till then I have to go.” Walking out he took a left and dipped into an alley then a sewer.

“Fwoosh,” with a teleport he was gone to a mountain range then a few more back to Bill’s place after first running straight there.

“Haa let’s get this over with.” Gray walked inside and joined the other two. The lecture was only a little interesting. Bill had started to mostly repeat the beginning from June let him know. After another hour he spoke about the health benefits before finally finishing.

(Pokemon Doctor has increased by 1)

‘Something out of all this.’ Gray felt the walk ball shake and realised Tyrunt wanted out.

“Rawwr,” the little Pokemon growled. “Sniff sniff,” he started sniffing the air and waddled to the door.

“Hahaha what a energized little thing.” June said from the side of Gray. “Dinner will be ready in a bit. Oh, I found out about some berries that help Pokemon around in the area. It is close to an Electic plant. You can catch an electric Pokemon when we get out there.”

“Hmm nice.” Gray smiled and nodded at her. “I am tempted to go right now. But it had been a long day. I will take Tyrunt for a walk then come back.” June nodded and waved him off.

Bill watched and thought it meant Gray was leaving. ‘Nows my chance! Cant let this go by!’ Feeling his confidence build up he went to get some wine for the meal. “I think she will love the meal!”

Chroma watched from a windowsill. Her eyes glowed briefly as she saw a glimpse of the future. Smirking to her self she phased through the house and sat on the roof. She sent June a message that she would be out for awhile.

-20 minutes later-

‘Gray is taking quite a bit of time getting back.’ June looked out and wondered before Bill sat back down with another bottle of wine. ‘Well cutting loose is not that bad every now and then. Gray is going to miss all the wine at this rate.’

“As I was saying June.” Bill said as he reached over and grabbed June’s hands. She thought nothing of it since they were old friends and he was always the touchy type when he drank and became merry. “I think you stay in help me with my research. With what happened to you.. you could provide a great boost to my credibility.”

“I don’t mind giving my own insights. It would be my pleasure.” June smiled happy to help a colleague. She noticed Bill’s feverish gaze along with his flushed cheeks. “Bill I think you may have had enough. We are not college kids anymore.”

“June I want you to stay here. Not just as an assistant.” Bill stepped forward towering a little over June I’m her seat. “We can pick up were we left off all those years ago.”

“Flattered but no. We dated only a little bit. I am traveling now. Better opportunities have opened up.” June shook her head at the idea. It was a safe peaceful choice to be a regular researcher. However the last few weeks have been exciting. Also her heart was somewhere else. “I have new dreams and staying will not allow me to achieve them.” She tried to pull her hands away. Bill’s grip was pretty strong. She felt afraid till Gale spoke inside her.

‘This man.. is dangerous. Get away June.’ Gales voice was cold as she roused her aura into June. ‘June that man is stronger than you. He has a powerful aura from his research most likely.’

‘Nonsense.’ June said back. “Bill let my hands go. You are hurting me.” She added in to help get her point across. Bill let go causing her to relax. “Bill no drink for you.” Getting up she grabbed the bottle and walked away to put it up. When she returned Bill looked even more determined than ever. ‘What has gotten into him?’

“June! I love you! Be with me.” Bill stepped forward causing June to step back.

“What the hell is that aura?” Gray asked walking back by the house. Tyrunt had smelt some weird berries. Gray picked them and stored them away for later. Not before the Pokemon ate half the bushel though. “Well shit. Didnt know the two were that close.”

Inside Gray watched as Bill poured his heart out to June. He was getting ready to turn away till he saw Bill grabbed June with a little to much strength. He pulled her close and tried to kiss her next.

“I am gonna murder that son of a..” Gray ramped his aura and was about ti step forward till Chroma stopped him.

‘Wait!’ She appeared right by his feet placing him within her aura. Gray was immediately sealed in time as she spoke to him. ‘Let her handle this. She is not that fragile Gray.’

‘You are kidding me!?’ Pushing his own aura even higher Empress woke up inside him. She was ready for a battle till she scan outward and noticed nothing was wrong. Chroma was not a threat as she was currently. She went back to sleep. ‘That is your partner in there!’

‘She will be fine Gray. She however wont be if you go in and kill her friend. You know I speak the truth.’ Chroma gave Gray hard state before licking her paws. ‘Go of you must, but I warned you.’ Relesasing Gray she watched as he stared inside. ‘Are you influenced by yourself or your memories currently. Only time will tell.’

“Smack,” inside June had smacked Bill so hard he hit the table. Her hand in the form of a Scythers talon. Bits of ice decorated his face as it spread outward keeping him down. Bill fainted from the inebartion afterward.

“Ha..ha.. that idiot!” June huffed as she calmed herself. Her hand turned back to normal from the partial transformation. “I need to warn Gray not to come back. He would lose it.” Looking to the side June smelt something odd from the wine that knocked over. “What is mixed in these drinks?”

‘It is a very used in mating. It makes Pokemon very intrested in mating. In humans I have no idea. It is odd that you do not act any different.’ Gale said before calming herself once more. ‘The power I received from Gray allows me to keep my wits. I guess it is affecting you as well.’

“It is illegal to use the berries. Bill what nonsense were you thinking.” June went to work cleaning up. She sent Gray a message to not come back instead to use this chance to get some night training in. He responded instantly. “Haa dodged that bullet.”

“Tch, this cannot end well for anyone.” Gray walked into the forest. H e kept gus aura trained on the house. Bill woke up and tried something worse this time. Chroma kept watch over Gray to make sure he stood put. June handled herself well usuing a little more force. The police came due to an anonymous tip from Gray saying he was a hiker and heard some women screaming for help nearby.

-The next day mid afternoon-

The group had stopped for a break from training. Resting as the Pokenon played around. Tyrunt stood next to Gray. He kept nibbling on Gray’s fingers happily. Empress was hanging from a tree messing with several rubix cubes. Her training had shot through the roof lately. Bugging Gray for all types of regiments. His Weedle took this time to start spinning its thread to become a Kakuna. The others just lazed about.

“So.. You were right about Bill. He started to get a little handsy when you left. Nothing a good chop to neck didn’t fix. Also reported him to the league. They can’t ignore what he did since I had proof. Security in the room caught everything.” June said to Gray once she noticed he was a little more quiet than usual.

“Glad you are ok.” Gray gave her a warm smile as he leaned back against the tree. His Pokemon played in the water a good bit away. Tyrunt was basking In the sun after nibbling at his fingers long enough. “We can go-to a hospital or something, to have you talk to someone if you like?”

“No I am fine. I had a talk with Chroma. Also gave my mom a call and talked to her about it. She was really heartbroken that Bill turned out that way. She also said he loved me for a long time and it was probably the drinking that did it.”

“Hmm I see.” Gray popped an eye open and watched her intently. “What do you think?”

“Well… I don’t really know.. Maybe he just lost control…”

“Hmm, if that is what you believe then so be it.” He closed his eyes after that.

“You sound like you know different?”

“As another man perhaps. I know loss of control from inebriation. As well as when someone sees what they really want and goes for it. He wanted you that badly. Consequences be damned. Love can turn to obsession over time. Add in a little power and well, cocktail for someone who wants to control others.”

“I hope that’s not the case.”

“Another way to look at it, or it could be he really wants that ass.” Gray gave her a grin. When he didn’t hear anything else, he figured she walked away. “Ahhh guess I will take a nap.”

“Thump,” something landed on Grays lap. It was Chroma staring up at him.

‘Why say the last part?’ Her wide eyes staring into him as he opened his own. ‘You could have left that part out.’

‘Perhaps. But I wanted her to know. She wanted my view on it after all. Thinking he was really good natured was very stupid. She believed it was the drink as well. If so, it does not matter what I say in the end. The report will come in, and she will know if it was really from the alcohol or whatever he had her ingest.’ Gray was a little off put about the situation. He could have just told her all she wanted to hear and gain some brownie points that way. Bit that felt a little disgusting to him. Better to stick her off and let her think about it more.

“Grr,” Chroma growled at him. Her tail smacked his leg. ‘I would have prefered you did something else. But fine whatever.’ She moved around on his stomach enjoying the warmth. His aura leaked out making him the perfect pillow. As well as a good Scratching post.

‘Hmm, can’t help it all the time. Had friends like her once who had that problem. It ended badly for them. Better she think on it with the full information. Even if its while angered.’

“I should have let you kill Bill instead of holding you back.”

“Why did you say that out loud?” Gray sat up and looked to the side and saw why. “Hi.. June. Fancy seeing you..”

“You held him back. Spill Chroma.” June was upset.

‘Very well. When everything happened, Gray was outside by the side. He felt your aura spike and turned to the house. Sending out his psychic energy he saw what was going on.’ Chroma hopped off Gray and walked up to June. ‘He saw Bill put his hand on you and grabbed you. I made Gray stop from going in there.’

“So you knew what was going on!” June felt her body go numb.

‘Yes.’

“Why didnt you help me? Why did you stop Gray?!”

“Because you would have hated me for it. I was going to kill Bill. I needed no explanation after feeling your aura and seeing him grab you like that.”

‘You would have been sad about that. I rather prevent that from happening. Besides, you needed to learn to fight back. I will not allow you to become weak. You wanted to prevent that future we saw. There will be blood shed June. You cannot stand by his side if you cannot defend yourself. You cannot always be shielded!’

“I am trying!”

‘I know June. I am not saying you havent been. You were in that situation do to your own actions. Anyone could see that man wanted you. I bet even Gale warned you but you didnt listen most likely.’ Chroma saw June grin. ‘I knew it. That is even more reason I think you should become an Elite Trainer. Get your instincts up for survival.’

“Ralts!” Yeah! She cheered her Trainer on. The little Pokemon wanted to battle to. One of the reason Hray chose her for June.

“Alright already. I will try.” June said with a lopsided grin. “Should I do the regular challenge to?”

“No. You do not need to be bogged down by that. The Elite trainer would defintely be enough for you to gain your instincts.” Gray added. “I think you will do fine. Come on, I secured some tickets for the pre-show for us. Then I get to have my battle at the Gym.”

“So a date?” June looked at him in the corner of her eyes.

“I guess. I rather think our first date was the one in the cave.”

“Ehh but that was work more than anything.”

“Ehh work yes. But I was able to see first hand what you were willing to do moving forward. Knowing that I can invite you to do field research with me is nice.” Gray smiled. “It may not be a typical date. But we are anything but typical. Besides if you were really that kind of woman I guess I should plan the whole nine yards. You want a Rapadash carriage while we are at it?”

“Pft no way.” June waved her hand at the nonsense.

“Thought so.” Gray gave her a pamphlet about the show. “Suppose to be pretty awesome. Think you would like something like this anyway.”

“Hmmm alright. But I am calling this a date.”

“Well guess I have to switch to a more dateable attire. So dinner before or after?” Gray looked on puzzled. June’s expression was a little unreadable. “What is it?”

“You are willing to do that with a old woman like me?”

“You do realize we are both really young in appearance. I am older than you June. A good bit.” Gray stood in front of her before grabbing her hands. “If you start thinking like this, I will take advantage of you to prove you very desirable. Not in the way Bill did obviously.”

“You dont have the balls!” June teased. Gray grabbed her by the base of her back and kissed her. With his psychic energy wrapping them. other she felt everything he felt watching Bill grab her. The desire to rip the man apart. She also felt the joy he felt from her smacking the man. “Mm you are something else.”

“Thanks. I think. Oh do you want to fight the Gym Leader after me?” Hray asked before he forgot.

“Maybe.” June held him back. “Dont ruin the moment talking about that.” She pulled him into a deeper kiss as she started to French kiss him. In the corner of June eyes she saw Empress give them the thumbs up. “Hehehe,” she couldnt help chuckling seeing the goofy Pokemon.

“Huh?” Turning around Gray watched Empress smile before returning to solving the puzzle. “Such a hard worker.” He watched for a few seconds before June pulled him back into a kiss.
