Included: Xio, Kiki, and Rikku and mentions of Lupe, Lux, and Rosie
-Xio-
"Hmm..." I hummed as I stared at myself in a mirror in the hallway holding onto my jacket. If the plan was to meet the leader, it would be best not to appear in front of her covered in blood from Roselyn. That was best since I know that bitch of a woman is short tempered and that is something I don't wish to deal with unless she wants to have her voice box torn out. Then again, I'd be doing her a favor possibly.
"Ha, that would be interesting to say the least." I smirked as I put the jacket over my shoulder and walked away. What I needed to do now was fine somewhere to wash off and clean myself of all the blood on myself.
It appeared there was two different quarters to this building, a male and a female quarters which was new to me, and as of yet, I hadn’t been given a room which didn’t bother me to much. Nevertheless, the thought of going to Lux’s room crossed my mind but then again a shower wasn’t what I desired more like a whirlpool. My muscles were a bit sore from my battle with the Houndooms and from dancing, probably should have not over done it with the battle though, no it was worth it for the fun I had.
Exploring the mansion was an option to see what was around this place, and to my surprise this place was bigger then I thought. Nevertheless, as I walked and found new rooms like the kitchen, dinning room, blah blah blah…I felt pretty relaxed after what Rosie did for me. It still bothered me how she was able to use her power to subside that curse I have. That trash of a women, tch, it pisses me off what bothered me more is that she was a grass type who to me were some of the weakest type of Pokémon of them all due to their nature loving personalities. Pathetic dipshits that wasted their talent as tree huggers.
My nose then smelt the warm chlorine coming down from another part of the building so I followed it, and yes this place did have a huge pool with a whirlpool, which looked so inviting. The environment was a wonderful change of pace, like the hot springs near Cinnar Bar Island where all those women….yes, annoying women who wouldn’t leave me alone. Sad that I had tainted the springs with their blood, should have listened when I said the first two times I wished to be left alone.
Tossing my jacket on a near by chair and sitting across it, I flung my boots onto it as well. I can say I was really looking forward to this as I took my pants off and dropped them on the chair.
"Ahhh!” I yawned as I stretched out standing up in my boxers. Pulling my hands behind my head I undid my bandana and took my hair out of the braid and walked over to the edge of the pool and dove in.
Instantly everything seemed to clear off my skin, just like that but it wasn’t that easy. I knew that much as I swam to the bottom and enjoying the weightless environment.
Again, that woman began to pop into my head and her powers, I hated thinking about her. What if she didn’t keep her mouth shut? I guess I could kill her, but she may be needed in the future. So I guess, I could leave it alone, or erase her memory but that could do more harm then possible. Possibly I could get the Electkids involved if needed. But her body and the way she looked at me with those eyes was annoying me even more then her power and her statement about caring. Such wasteful thoughts about caring. Humph, all you need is power and the will to survive that is how I have prevailed all these years. Whatever, I particularly don’t care. I need these people here for my motives in the future so I best get along and keep this act up.
My hair floated past my face as I came back up for air and flung it back as I exited the water. I began to fix my hair as I noticed how long it had been since I last cut it, which had been awhile and normally I don’t care to let it out of its braid. I walked through the water and exited towards the whirlpool and sat down and relaxed.
“Now what should I do around here?” As I sat in the water enjoying the bubbles and the jets against my back easing the soreness. There were windows above on the ceiling as I glanced out them. “Smells like a storm is coming, a thunderstorm….how nice..”
I dunked down once again just to get everything wet. I think I could at least a half an hours on here to just relax and have some time to myself for peace and quiet. Coming out once again, I adjusted my long hair from my face and noticed a shadow over the hot tub, as I turned to it, there was Kiki staring at me in surprise with a purse in hand.
Giving her a smile I spoke to her. "Hello my dear. What brings you here?"
"Um..." It appeared she was flushed in the face around me, honestly, I enjoyed seeing her stumble as she looked at me or was it her first time seeing a half naked man? Haha, entertaining to say the least. "I was going out...heehee I didn't know there was a pool here." Kiki nervously rubbed the back of her head. Yup, she had never seen this before, time to play with her a bit.
I moved to the edge of the pool to greet her as I propped my elbow on the edge and rested my chin on my palm. "The water feels great you should join me some other time.” I smiled at her. I was tempted to pull her in since I wouldn’t mind her company since she was to tease.
"Ah sure....maybe later. Right now I'm going shopping. So see you later." She said a bit red in the face she was actually was cute at this moment, have to admit it too.
"Have fun, my dear," I winked at her as I gave her wave as she turned and exited the pool area to the outside.
Shopping sounded interesting, I could use some things from town as well. The sun was already going down and letting her go in the forest, well maybe that wasn’t safe for her. I would always accompanied Lydia when she went outside our village for her safety since their were trash Pokémon in the forest that would take advantage of a woman, like that Muk I killed when I found Roselyn.
“Maybe…I should have gone with her.” I mumbled to myself as I sat down in the hot tub and took in the relaxing waves hitting my body. She had enough sunlight to get to town I suppose, but a storm was coming and I did not see an umbrella in her hand, dumb girl doesn’t know what was coming. I guess I could go with Kiki to get some fresh air, then again I could careless. It’s none of my business, I wanted to relax.
-15 Minutes Later-
“AH YEAH THAT HITS THE SPOT!” Stretching and giving a yawn splashing a bit of water. I guess I dozed off a bit then thunder struck in the sky above. “I guess the storm is here a bit earlier then expected. I bet Kiki is probably is lost too…”
Laying back and closing my eyes, Lydia’s voice rang in my head.
“Xio...Xio….sniff sniff…I’m scared...” Lydia cried as she hugged a tree as the winds picked up in the forest.
“It’s alright Lydia, and you call yourself a Shinx. You’re just being a big chicken. Geez, you are such a scarety cat sometimes.” I grabbed her hand and pulled her through the mountain valley. “I’ll lead the way so we can get home okay? That way you can’t say I didn’t help you….and I won’t tell everyone how big of a baby you are.”
I laughed at her and she hit me, we were both children at that time. “Sniff…sniff…thanks Xio…you’re the best”
I sighed, “I know already…at least you are safe…”
Opening my eyes and not ever leaving Lydia alone and since Kiki reminded me so much of her. “I guess I could go with her…tch, oh well, sorry Lydia…I guess you got to me. Fine…I’m going…”
The door opened as I sat there and turned to see another women again, a Pikachu it looked like but it was odd, she hadn’t noticed me yet but something was wrong. Lifting an eyebrow I observed her and knew she wasn’t normal.
Interesting….as I rubbed my chin and watched.
-END-
