Pokemon: BigRai’s Story by BigRai

Chapter 3: Inferno’s Plight part 2

<>:Pokemon speech

Kate: Rai come in here. I've got something for you.

Rai’s ears perked up and he got up off the living room couch and walked into the kitchen.

Rai: Yea?

Kate: I’ve got you a present for your birthday.

Rai: Really? Thanks a lot. What is it?

 

Kate reached into her pocket and drew out a pokeball, she handed it to Rai with a big smile. Jeramy started to giggle from his wheelchair and Kate gave him a nudge to the shoulder.

Kate: Well, Jeramy and me are going in to town. We’ll be back tonight okay? Have fun.

Rai looked at her strangely as she wheeled Jeramy out and into their car. Puzzled he watched them pull off. He looked down at the miniature red and white ball in his hands, what was in it? He pushed the button and the ball grew. A second later a red light shot out of the button and materialized into a raichu. Rai’s heart quickened, he hadn’t seen another chu in years.

Rai: Hello.

Raichu: Hello you mist be Rai.

Rai: Yea.

The raichu smiled and walked up to him. In an instant Rai caught a very strong sent, the raichu was female. And a very healthy looking one at that.

Raichu: My name is Jennifer. Kate told me all about you and how you lost your mate.

Rai was speechless, he hadn’t mated in four years and his body was takeing over his mind. Jennifer looked up at the bigger raichu and put a paw on his chest. She could tell she was having an effect on him. She walked around the trembling male looking his whole body over. He was perfect. Rai was squirming, he couldn’t think or move, he just looked as she circled him. She got to his front and looked down, yep she was defiantly having an effect on him. She chucked, looked him in his terrified face, and drew closer to kiss him. Rai’s mind flashed a picture of Inferno across his eyes just in time. He turned away from her.

Rai: N…n…no.

Jennifer: What’s wrong?

Rai: I'm sorry…I…I cant.

Rai ran out of the living room and upstairs. Jennifer was dumbfounded, how could he have rejected her?

*******************

Rebecca: Inferno why wouln’t you mate?

Inferno just shook her head no and laid down on the floor. Rebecca sighed and walked out of the lab room. She couldn’t understand what was wrong. Inferno was a perfectly healthy female, why would she not want to mate? She looked at the small char through the window; Inferno had rejected all the males she was brought. She only pointed to the piece of paper with "Rai" scribbled on it. Who or what was this "Rai?" What did it do to her?

Rebecca: [What can I do? Why wouln’t you accept your new life now?]

Then an idea popped in her head.

Wildfire picked up the phone in the house angry that he had been woken up from his afternoon nap.

Wildfire: What?

Rebecca: Oh, is some one grumpy?

Wildfire: Aren’t you supposed to be working? What is it?

Rebecca: I’ve got a job for you.

When Wildfire walked into the lab she explained every thing to him.

Wildfire: So now I get to finally see this mystery monster you’ve been hiding from me.

Rebecca: Look I’m sorry for keeping her a secret but I wanted to see if she would be a good match for you. I don’t know though, she seems to be a stubborn one.

Wildfire: Only because your trying to force things too fast on her. Here let me try.

Wildfire opened the door and walked into the room, but as soon as he stepped in a sweet smell hit his nose. His mind raced as he forgot all he was going to say. There was nothing now, not the lab, not Rebecca, just her. She was the most beautiful char he had ever seen. He slowly walked toward her, but stopped when she started to growl at him.

Inferno: <What?>

Wildfire: <Uh…hi.>

Inferno: <Hi, now go away.>

Wildfire was speechless. He tried to think of words but none came to him. He stood there just looking at her. Inferno looked back up at him now extremely annoyed.

Inferno: <Look, if you are here to mate with me your out of luck.>

Wildfire: <Why?>

Inferno: <Just leave me alone!>

But he couldn’t go; his body wouldn’t let him. He took a step towards her causing her to growl even louder at him. But something was different; he could smell fear coming from her. He took another step causing her to get up on her hind legs and back up. Each time he took a step she backed up until she was cornered. Wildfire was about three steps away from her.

Inferno: <Stop, please!>

Wildfire: <What’s wrong?>

Inferno tucked her tail between her legs and started to shake. Wildfire walked up to her and put a claw on her shoulder. Inferno gasped and looked up at him with terror filled eyes. Wildfire looked down at the smaller char and listened to her staggered breathing. He felt sorry for her, why did she feel this way? He mustered up the calmest voice he could find and spoke.

Wildfire: <Calm down. If you don’t want to I’m not going to force you.>

Inferno stopped shaking and looked down in despair. She wondered why she held on.

Wildfire: <Now what’s wrong? Why woulnt you mate with anyone?>

Inferno: <I already have a mate.>

Wildfire: <Then why didn’t you say something? What is his name?>

Inferno: <Rai.>

Wildfire: <That’s a wired name for a char.>

Inferno: <He’s a raichu.>

Inferno looked up to what she knew would be a puzzled look form the male.

Inferno: <He’s a guardian.>

Wildfire: <Oh, well that explains it, I understand. Where is he?>

Inferno: <I haven’t seen him in four years.>

Wildfire: <What happened?>

Inferno: <Humans attacked us, and I was captured. I don’t know if I’ll ever see him again. I’m sorry if you had your hopes up, but I want to wait a little while longer till I can escape and find him.>

Wildfire looked into her purple eyes, he hated what he was about to do, but it was for the best.

Wildfire: <(Sigh) I can help you find him.>

Inferno instantly perked up

Inferno: <You can! Oh thank you!>

Inferno hugged him tight, an action he wished she had not taken. Inferno jumped back and stared at a now very red Wildfire. She giggled for the first time in years. Wildfire couldn’t help but laugh at himself too. Then a thought crossed his mind.

Wildfire: [Rebecca isn’t going to like this. She really wanted us to mate.] <Inferno we have to make it look like we did it.>

Inferno: <Why?>

Wildfire: <If we don’t she’ll just artificially impregnate you.>

Inferno: <She wouldn’t?>

Wildfire: <She is a good human but our species is dwindling. She really wants us to reproduce. So if I don’t do the job she will.>

Inferno: <So what do we do?>

Wildfire: <Lay down and look satisfied, I’ll take it from there.>

Inferno curled up in a ball and thought of Rai then a thought crossed her mind. She looked back up at him.

Inferno: <How is she going to know if you…oh.>

Wildfire had his back turned to her with his legs spread and both claws to his front.

Wildfire: <Hay this isn’t a show, close your eyes!>

Inferno chuckled and laid her head down. She did however manage to slightly open one eye and watch him.

Inferno: [Wildfire, if I only didn’t have a mate.]
