Title: A silver stream of light

“Pikachu, use Thunder!” Ash commanded. His opponent’s Gyrados crashed into the ground, beaten.

“Aw, man.” Patrick moaned as he recalled his fallen pokemon. “I was so close!” He sadly turned and left.

Ash sighed as Pikachu clambered onto his shoulder. * I hate this. The winners of those petty semifinals are never any good. And why do they always challenge me? The Elite Four are getting really bored… *

“Tired?” A voice asked. Ash turned around and saw Lance, cape billowing slightly, holding a glass of fruit juice.

“Thanks.” Ash said gratefully accepting the drink. He sighed and leaned against the Dragon Master tiredly. Lance stroked the younger trainer’s hair and pressed a soft kiss to his lips.

“Shh…”

Ash smiled tiredly as he felt chi flowing through him, soothing waves of it. * Lance is so nice… always taking care of me, ever since I came here as a thirteen-year old and beat the Elite Four… so nice… *

Ash remembered the first night at the Plateau. He had been gripped by a terrifying nightmare, stemming from his fear of being alone in the Master’s Mansion that lay next to the Elite Four Palace. Lance had been at his side in an instant, had held him through the night as he sobbed and slept fitfully. He had trusted the Dragon Master implicitly, and he still did.

This was one secret he had managed to keep from the Media. The Elite Four and Champion all had trouble trying to keep their private lives secret, but having pokemon that could wipe memories and destroy equipment on your side was really useful.

“Do you need me to-?” Lance asked as he led Ash back to his room.

Ash nodded. “Could you? I don’t like being alone…”

Lance nodded and gave the younger trainer a hug. “Don’t tire yourself out, okay? I want you to take a nice, long nap.”

“Yes, mom.” Ash said obediently, earning him a dirty look.

After a refreshing nap, Ash woke to the setting sun. He yawned and climbed out of bed.

Pikachu hopped off his desk. Did you have a nice nap?

< Yes, Pikachu. > Ash said telepathically. It was a lot handier than talking when he was tired. < I slept pretty well. Do you want to go for a walk? >

Wait. Pikachu said. You have to remember to disguise yourself. Otherwise, fans’ll overrun you.

Ash nodded and walked into the bathroom. He shrugged and splashed himself with cold water. As the water hit, he lost a few inches in height and developed feminine curves. His hair lengthened and un-spiked itself, so he, actually she, now had silvery-white hair down to mid-back, as well as clear blue eyes. She went outside and changed into a dark blue tank top and black jeans.

< Okay, I’m ready. > Ashline said.

Ashline walked out and smacked into Bruno.

Bruno blinked. * Woohoo, Ash finally got some! * He thought. * She’s pretty, too! But not as pretty as Lorelei… *

Ashline gulped and bolted.

Bruno blinked. * Darn, I was going to ask if she would go out with me… why does Ash have all the luck? *

Lance watched in amusement as Ashline dashed by. “Have fun, Ash.” He called. Ash nodded and dashed off. * Note to self. Remember to thank Lance for taking me to that training ground; the curse actually comes in handy quite often. *

Lance smirked a little bit. Dragonite yawned and nuzzled her master.

< You did tell him about your curse too, right? >

< Actually… no. He still thinks I’m a guy. >

< Technically, you are…most of the time. But you were born a girl. >

< I know. > Lance said. < But it’s a lot more convenient to stay as a boy. The only times I change back are when I take hot showers. >
< Figures. > Dragonite said as she curled up to take a nap. Then, she thought of something. < Not even when you two are together? >

< No, why? >

< Just curious. >

Ash splashed himself with some hot water after he returned from his walk. Then, he saw the clock.

“Shoot! I’m going to be late for dinner if I don’t hurry!” He jumped into a suit in two seconds, dashed down the hall, and arrived inside the dining room with a minute to spare.

Lance looked up. “You’re not last. President Godwin still hasn’t arrived.”

Ash breathed a sigh of relief as he took his seat between Lance and Will. Lorelei, Karen, Agatha, and Bruno sat on the other side. Koga didn’t look up from where he sat next to Bruno. An empty seat indicated the absence of a member.

At precisely seven oh six Godwin walked in.

“Six minutes late.” Lance said, putting down his timer. “What did you call us here for, President?”
The president looked uncomfortable. “We’ll discuss this later.” The food arrived, and the Elites busied themselves with it.

“The gym leader, Mistara Waterflower, has finally returned from her training trip, and will be running the Cerulean City gym from now on.” Godwin finally said.

“So?” Lorelei asked as she adjusted her glasses. “What’s so important?”
“Trainers are beginning to complain that the pokemon she uses are too high level for them to defeat, so…”
“Let me guess. You’re going to have us battle her to prove that it’s not impossible.” Lance said sarcastically.

“Yes.”
“It was a joke!”

Agatha looked angered. “Mr. President, we realize that this is probably for the good of the League, however, using us as test subjects is not particularly to our liking. I know you must understand this.”
Godwin looked uncomfortable. “I must do this…”
“I’ll go.” Bruno said. The other elites looked surprised, but shrugged.

< So if Bruno represents us, than the rest of us aren’t required to do anything, right? > Will asked.

“Um…” Godwin looked slightly nervous. He hated telepaths!

< I’ll volunteer too. > Karen said with a smirk. * That’ll show the public the power of dark pokemon! *

“Are two reps enough?” Ash asked.

“Three would be better…” Godwin said.

“Fine. I’ll fight her. Tomorrow.” Ash said with a smirk. * I am Grand Champion, after all! *

After a while, the meeting adjourned. Ash headed back to his room.

When Ash arrived, he wasn’t very surprised to see Lance already there, dressed in white sweatpants and a dark blue top.

Lance smiled at Ash and floated him over to the bed.

Ash smiled, a bit nervous, but leaned against the Dragon Master.

“Nervous?” Lance asked as he kissed the younger trainer. Ash nodded.

“I know you’ll never hurt me, though.”
Lance smiled and began stripping off Ash’s clothes. Ash sighed. He really loved the Dragon Master so much…

“Ash?” Lance asked as his fingers began to stroke his hardness slowly. Ash gasped and bit his lip as the pleasure built within him, heat pooling in his loins. When Lance placed a kiss on the tip of his cock, Ash nearly fainted right then and there.

“Y-yes?” Ash managed to get out as Lance continued his ministrations. * Sigh… I love him… * Lance let an impish grin slip past his defenses as he suddenly French kissed the younger trainer. Ash screamed as he creamed all over the sheets, as well as Lance’s clothes.

Lance smiled and continued to trace lines over Ash’s torso. Ash groaned. < Lance, you’re killing me! >

< At least it’s a pleasant death. > The dragon master rejoined as he continued placing feathery touches over Ash’s body.

Ash sighed as he felt the energy building up again. * I know I shouldn’t do this, but it feels so good! Besides, Lance-chan is wonderful, and it replenishes my energy as well… * (Think Soi’s bouchu technique from Fushigi Yuugi)

Lance smiled as he licked the seed from Ash’s body. Ash’s eyes widened as he felt the fire build again as Lance’s eyes turned silver.

“Mine.” Lance whispered as he finished. Ash’s cry of pleasure was cut off when the Dragon Master lip-locked him.

Ash’s eyes clouded over with ecstasy. < That was… incredible. >
Lance smiled and stroked Ash’s hair. < Wonderful. Sleep now. > His eyes turned silver again and Ash smiled as he drifted into dreamland. Ash yawned. * Sigh… *

< You love him. >

Lance nodded. < You’re very perceptive, Dragonair. And he loves me as well. >

< It seems almost too good to be true. >

< But you still haven’t told him. Doesn’t he mind? >
< No. >

Dragonair yawned. < Well, it’s not my business to pry. Have fun. >

Lance smirked. < Well, I’m taking it slowly with him. It wouldn’t do to frighten him off too soon, ne? >

Dragonair nodded.

Ash was pleasantly awakened the next morning by the feeling of someone kissing him. When his eyes fluttered open, he saw Lance tenderly brushing his hair. Ash grinned and kissed the Dragon Master deeply.

< Want to play with me before you go and battle Misty? > Lance asked.

Ash’s eyes lit up. < Sure! > Lance shrugged and pulled out some scarves and chains. < Don’t worry; I won’t hurt you. >
< I know. > Ash replied as Lance chained him to his bed and placed a blindfold over his eyes.

< Good. > Lance said as he began stroking lines down Ash’s body ever so slowly…

Ash whimpered piteously. < Lance, you’re killing me! >

< That’s the point, isn’t it? > Lance asked as he fastened his teeth on one of Ash’s nipples. Ash froze and arched his back as electric currents ran through his body.

< Lance! I think I’m going to-! >

< Not yet. > Lance said, with a voice like steel. Ash froze, but nodded and tried to suppress his shudders. Lance worked his way down Ash’s chest, nipping here and there. Then, he slowly began toying with Ash’s cock and balls, stroking them, and placing a kiss on them occasionally. Tears trickled out of Ash’s eyes, but he didn’t move, true to his word.

That was, until Lance took his entire length into his mouth. Ash bucked and cried out in a shrill voice, before he felt Lance clamp down on him. Lance smirked as he began to slowly play with the poor champion. After a few agonizing moments, he said. < All right, Ash. Now you can scream as loud as you want. >

Ash shrieked and thrust forward, spilling his seed into the Dragon Master’s throat. Lance smirked and licked his lips carnally. < Mmm… >

Ash turned bright red. <L-lance… >

< Yes? >

< I-I want you to… >
Lance caught what Ash was trying to say and freed the Champion from his restraints. Then, he casually began to stroke his own hardness through his black silk pants. Ash watched, fascinated. Lance was so beautiful! Like a sculpture carved out of gold and ivory. And he loved Ash. That was the most important thing.

< Enjoying the show, Ash? >

Ash blushed again. < Lance, you’re teasing me. >
< So? >

Ash bent down and nuzzled the Dragon Master. < I want you to take me. >

< Oh. > Lance said. * Well, I guess he’s not the naïve child he was anymore. * He grinned and pulled off his outfit.

Ash stared, fascinated. < Lance-chan, you’re so bishonen! >

Lance smiled. < Really. > He produced a bottle of mineral oil from somewhere and slicked his fingers with it. < Are you sure about this, Ash? >

Ash nodded. Lance checked to make sure he was okay, before sliding his fingers into Ash’s entrance one by one.

Ash winced a bit, but slowly relaxed as the pain was replaced by silvery waves of sweetness. < Lance… I think I’m going to… >

Lance nodded and slipped his fingers out, before positioning himself at Ash’s entrance. Ash gasped as he felt the head enter, but Lance’s hands were moving all over his chest and working their magic again, and Ash found that he didn’t really care anymore. His eyes clouded over in pleasure and soon, he felt Lance moving inside, sending stars through his head.

< LANCE! > Ash shrieked as he crashed into orgasm. A few seconds later, the Dragon Master followed. Ash blinked blearily and snuggled up against Lance’s body.

< That was nice. >

Lance kissed the top of Ash’s head. < I know. But you have to get ready soon. >

Ash nodded and after a quick shower and clothes change, was flying to Cerulean along with Karen and Bruno.

“So, Ash, did you finally get some?” Bruno asked. “About time too!”

Ash choked and nearly toppled off Pidgeot’s head. Karen laughed.

“Quit teasing him, Bruno!”
“Just a question. Hey, Misty’s pretty hot. Do you think she’d go out with me?”

“Maybe. But I doubt it.” Karen said.

Bruno sighed. “Ash gets all the girls…”

“But he doesn’t want them.” Karen muttered. < Do you, Ash? After all, they’re probably nothing compared to Lance. >

Ash did fall off Pidgeot at this, but Pidgeot swooped down to catch him. < Karen!? How did you-! >

< Oh that’s easy. Next time, put on psychic dampeners or something. If we hear you shouting Lance’s name telepathically, there’s probably only a few reasons for it... And you didn’t sound like you were in danger… >

Ash turned bright red. < I see… >

< Never knew you were interested in guys. But as long as you don’t take Will, I have no complaints. > Karen said.

< Would I want to? > Ash asked incredulously.

Karen shrugged.

Bruno felt a bit left out. “Hey guys, what are you talking about?”

“Oh, just people we like.” Ash said.

“I see.” Bruno said. “Well, we’re almost to Cerulean City.”

“Cool! Let’s get this over with.” Ash said as he jumped off. The three of them landed on the doorstep of Misty’s gym and went in.

End part 1!

“Yes?” Misty asked. Ash gulped. She looked really sexy now! She was dressed in a tiny black bikini and sitting by the side of the pool.

“I challenge you for a Cascade Badge!” Ash said.

Misty shrugged. “Sure. Misty chooses Starmie!”

Ash smiled as he reached for a poke ball. * So her Staryu finally evolved. Well, it’s a pity really… *

“Jolteon, I choose you!”

Misty winced, but didn’t back down. “Starmie, Bubblebeam!”

“Match Thunder!” Ash said, not even bothering to waste time. The attack slammed into Starmie easily. One hit K-O.

Misty scowled. “Quagsire, go!”

Ash smiled. “Ah, I see why now.” * everyone brings electric types to fight misty, but she wipes them out with her dual water types. *

“Jolteon, come back! Bulbasaur, I choose you! Razor Leaf!” Quagsire didn’t really stand a chance. Ash winked at the other two Elites and gave them a peace sign. “Next!”

Karen and Bruno easily creamed Misty. Bruno’s Hitmontop even managed to beat Misty’s Golduck, while Karen’s Vileplume easily toasted her Lapras, much to Misty’s shock and anger.

“Well, I’m heading back to the Plateau now.” Karen said, as she hopped on her Murkrow. “See ya, Ash!”
“Me too.” Bruno said. “You two can catch up on old times and stuff like that.”
Ash protested, but Bruno took off as well.

“So, how have you been, Ash?” Misty asked as she healed her pokemon.

“Fine.” Ash said.

“Well, as you see, I’ve dedicated my life to becoming a pokemon master. You’re a pokemon master now, so you must have achieved your dream.”
“Yeah…” Ash said, but he looked down.

Misty noticed and smirked. * I knew it! Now he’s going to admit that he’s in love with me! *

Misty stretched so that her cleavage was in Ash’s field of vision. “Yes, Ash? What were you going to say?”
Ash gulped and looked away, trying to quench the fiery blush that was blossoming on his cheeks.

Misty smiled. “Aw, Ash, you don’t have to be shy!”

“B-but…” Ash was cut off from saying anything when Misty kissed him firmly. Ash quickly tried to scramble away, but misty wasn’t going to stand for this.

“Oh no you don’t Ash, I’ve wanted this for a long time and now I’m going to get it!” Misty said, as she reached for his belt.

“No, Misty, I don’t want this!” Ash protested.

Misty ignored him and fastened her teeth into his ear. Ash shrieked in pain and tried to pull away, but misty had really strong teeth.

“We’re going to do this and you’re going to enjoy it.” Misty said in a no-nonsense tone as she stripped off her bikini.

Ash tried to get away, but Misty shoved her pussy into his face. “Lick me.” She commanded, not giving him much of a choice. Bands of ice rose from the floor and kept him there, tightening so hard that the blood flow to his arms was cut off. More bands chained his les together, to the floor. “Or else I’ll slice off your hands and feet.”

Tears ran down Ash’s face but he complied. Misty grunted, satisfied, as Ash timidly massaged her womanhood with his tongue. “Oh yes! I’m cumming!” She shouted after a few minutes. She finally hit orgasm and spilled her juices all over his face and body.

Ash took advantage of her state to wrench him free from the bonds, and he winced as he felt a few bones snap. Then, he quickly dashed out of the gym, ignoring Misty’s shocked look. She tried to pursue him, but was still feeling the aftereffects of bliss and therefore moved too slowly.

“Teleport!” Ash said, before he landed in Indigo Plateau. * Oh Lugia! Why? She raped me! I can’t believe it! Why?*

Lugia shrugged.

Lance looked up from his paperwork to see a thoroughly drenched Ash dash into his room, bleeding profusely. < What’s wrong, koibito? Here, let me heal you. > He gently ran healing chi over Ash’s broken arms and legs.

Ash sobbed as he leaned against Lance. < M-misty, she raped me! She chained me down and forced me to- to… > Ash stopped as he felt Lance comfortingly wrapping his arms around him. < S-she enjoyed it too! >

< That slut! > Lance roared. < Don’t worry, I’ll protect you, love. > He added in a gentler tone. Ash cuddled against Lance’s body, enjoying the warmth.

< I should never have left you go alone. > Lance said.

< Not your fault. > Ash replied. Lance nodded, but resolved to have a talk with Karen and Bruno later. After a while, Ash drifted off to sleep.

“Karen, may I have a word with you?

< Certainly. > Karen said as she looked up from feeding her pokemon. < What is it? >

< Are you aware that because you left Ash alone at the Cerulean City gym the gym leader wound up raping him? >

< What?! > Karen demanded. * I can’t believe it! I thought he’d be safe there, that’s why I left him there! *

< I think we need to have a talk with Ms. Waterflower about this. > Lance said as he transmitted the images he had received from Ash into Karen’s mind.

< Of course! It’s totally against League policy, plus it’s a crime. > Karen agreed. * If it had been me, I would have torn her throat out for hurting Will! * < You have my full support, Lance. >

Lance nodded. “Could you inform Will of this? I’ll tell the others. I’m not sure if we can keep this out of the news though…”

Karen sighed. < Yes, I know. > Lance nodded and left.

“Oh yes! Do it to me, Ash!” Misty screamed as she fisted herself. “Keep it up, you whore! Lick me!”

She was so preoccupied that she didn’t notice a shadowy figure appear in her room until they whispered a command.

“Onix, Slam!”

Misty barely had time to look startled before a massive Onix slammed into her, knocking her out. Bruno tsked as he looked at her, before a grin flitted across his rocky figures. * Well, well, maybe it won’t be so bad after all… besides, Lance didn’t give me any instructions with what to do with her, except keeping her at League HQ until further notice… *

When Misty awoke, she was tightly bound and couldn’t move, with a gag in her mouth and a blindfold that covered her eyes. She tried to move, but couldn’t. Suddenly, without any warning, someone shoved a prick into her tight and still amazingly virgin cunt, erecting a scream. Misty began to bleed as the man hammered into her mercilessly. “No… stop…” She wailed.

“Why should I?” Was the only answer. After what seemed like an eternity, the man came, semen sloshing against her inner walls.

Some time later, Misty was dimly aware of water being forced down her throat. She drank that, and some nutritional broth that was provided as well. The blindfold was not removed, and when she tried to scream, a reeling slap made her reconsider.

The man continued his administrations. Misty was too sore and tired to do anything but cry.

This pattern continued for many days. Misty completely lost track of time. At intervals she was fed, sent to the bathroom, and bathed by an unknown person. However, one day, the blindfold and gag were removed. Misty winced as she looked at her captors. Before her stood the Elite Four, and the man who had been torturing her was Bruno.

“Why?!” Misty demanded. “What did I ever do to you?”

Lance stepped forwards. “You dare demand an explanation of us?! After what you did to our Grand Champion?”

Misty’s thoughts whirled back to what she had done with Ash. “But he didn’t mind!” She said defensively.

“Really? Well, for your information, he’s been trying to kill himself for the past few weeks.” Lance said scathingly. He opened his black and red cape, revealing Ash huddled against his chest.

When Ash saw Misty, he screamed and buried his head in Lance’s chest, shrieking incoherently in both telepathy and normal speech. Agatha, Will, and Karen all winced as they felt the shrieks resounding inside their skulls.

< Snap out of it, Ash. Shh… I’ll protect you. > Lance whispered soothingly as he tenderly brushed Ash’s hair of his eyes. Then, he leaned down and kissed the younger trainer. Ash’s eyes fluttered closed as he fell asleep.

“Do you see now?”

< This punishment is only fair. > Will said. < We have also revoked your gym leader status. One such as you should not be there to prey on innocent young trainers. >

< It’s already official. > Agatha added.

< So you’d better get used to this. > Karen added as she cast a sideways glance at Misty.

Tears streamed down her face at the shame she felt. “It’s not fair!”

< Life isn’t fair. Get used to it. > Lance’s voice was as cold as steel or ice. He swirled his cape around himself and vanished, Ash along with him.

Agatha, Will, and Karen all vanished as well, the blue glow of teleport surrounding them.

Koga and Agatha left, leaving Misty alone with Bruno and Lorelei.

“I never thought a gym leader would sink so long as to rape a trainer in order to traumatize him so that he wouldn’t demand a badge.” Lorelei said as she glared at Misty. “Seems I was wrong.” She turned and walked off, heels clacking against the tiled floor. The expression of utter disgust on her face was too great to be described in words.

Misty began to cry with renewed vigor. Having her heroine, her idol, refer to her as some disgusting beast totally crushed her spirit.

Bruno approached her. “No! Stay away from me!”

Bruno didn’t answer. He simply handed her a glass of water and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, unchaining her from the wall. Misty considered running, but even if she got away, she was still pokemon-less and penniless, so she really had no choice. She sighed and ate the food provided. Then, Bruno led her to a set of shower stalls, handed her soap, shampoo, and a towel, and sat outside to wait.

Misty scrubbed herself furiously, luxuriating in the feel of the hot water. After an hour, she finally emerged, wrapped in the blue towel. This time, Bruno was ready with clean underwear, a pair of gray sweatpants, a green long-sleeved shirt, a light gray sweatshirt, white socks, and white sneakers.

“Thank you.” Misty said in a whisper. * I wonder who thought of providing clean clothes… doesn’t seem like something Bruno would do. *

As if he was reading her mind, Bruno grunted a response. “Lance.”
Misty blinked. * Lance?! No way! But he was so angry towards me… I wonder why, though… *

“Why is Lance mad at me?”

Bruno shrugged. * Oh well, don’t think he’ll mind if I tell her… * “Lance and Ash are, well, together.”

“No way!” Misty said in amazement. * No wonder he was so angry! *

“I know. I didn’t know either until-.” Bruno broke off his sentence. Misty caught what he had been going to say and looked ashamed.

“So I’m a prisoner here now?”
“Yes.” Bruno said. “You are confined to the Elite Four Palace. You won’t be hurt anymore, but you can’t leave.”
Misty sighed. * It could be worse, I guess… * She dressed and Bruno led her to small room. It could have been a standard hotel room, clean, done in colors of cream and beige. In it were a bed, a closet, a chest of drawers, and a desk with a computer, several lamps, and two bookshelves. On the bed sat a Staryu poke doll. Bruno left. Misty waited until he was gone before she lay down on the bed and finally slept well, for the first time in weeks.

Four days later…

“Ash?” Lance asked as he soothingly ran healing chi over his love. “Please talk to me. I want to help you.”

Ash didn’t say anything, except to clutch Lance tighter. Lance sighed and led Ash over to the bathtub. Running the water, he filled it with hot water. Then, he undressed Ash slowly and set him down in the warm water. Ash seemed to relax a little bit. Lance handed him soap and a washcloth, and sat by the tub, keeping watch over Ash in case he tried anything drastic. Fortunately, Ash didn’t. After he was done, Lance dried him with a big white fluffy towel and dressed Ash in clean underwear and light blue pajamas. Then, he tucked Ash into bed.

Ash clutched the Dragon Master tighter. Lance kissed his koibito on the lips lightly, while massaging his shoulders to relieve tension. “Don’t worry, Ash. I will never hurt you.”

Ash nodded and soon fell asleep.

The next morning…

“Wake up!” Lance said, shaking Ash out of a nightmare (again). * I have to do something to stop this… *

< Even if it means revealing your true identity? > Dragonair asked.

< Yes. >

“Ash, look at me.” Lance said as he fed Ash some very nutritious soup. Ash blinked and looked up. His eyes were still kind of blank.

Lance sighed and pick up a glass of hot water. “Watch.” He said, as he poured it over himself. His red hair lightened to blonde, he lost several inches in height, and basically turned into a girl. A few seconds later, Ash found himself staring at a beautiful blonde girl who was undoubtedly Lance.

“L-lance? You’re cursed too?” Ash asked, finally talking. He had finally been shocked out of silence.

“Yes.” Lance said.

“Wait. That was hot water! So you’re really a girl?!”

“Yes. You’re the only one I’ve told, aside from my dragons.” Lance said.

Ash’s mind whirled in a series of conflicting directions. * But if Lance is a girl, won’t it be like Misty, No, Lance said he’d never hurt me, but he’s different now, no, he’s still the same person he was, I mean she, oh, I don’t know what to do… *

Lance calmly stared at him with those familiar blue eyes that had remained the same in both forms. In an instant, Ash felt all his confusion melting away and he threw himself into the Dragon Master’s arms.

“Lance-chan! I missed you so much!”
Lance kissed the Champion on the lips fiercely. “Don’t do that again, Ash! Locking yourself up inside your own mind will only hurt you.”

Ash nodded and cried freely as he buried his face in Lance’s chest, never mind that Lance was a girl.

“Shh…” Lance said soothingly as she placed a kiss on top of Ash’s head. < You’ll be all right now, because I’ll always protect you. >

Ash nodded, feeling Lance’s chi re-meshing with his where it had broken during his comatose state.

< Forever, we’ll always be together? > Ash asked.

< Forever. > Lance said, wrapping her arms around him tightly. < For eternity. >

Ash snuggled tightly up against Lance’s soft body.

Lance smirked a little bit as she felt him getting hard. < So, don’t tell me you’re actually interested in girls, Ash. >

< Not just any girl. You. I love you no matter what form you’re in. >

< Oh? > Lance asked as she freed his erection from its confines. < I see… > Her clothes vanished in a flash of silver light.

Ash gulped. * Oh Lugia! Forget what I said about Lance being bishonen! He’s insanely cute in both forms! *

From his underwater cave, lugia nodded and wrote that down.

Lance began running soft caresses over Ash’s body. < Don’t worry, Ash. It will be fine. I’ll never hurt you. >
Ash nodded, he knew, but being reassured always felt nice.

After a few minutes, Ash tentatively reached up to stroke Lance’s chest. Lance shuddered.

< Did I hurt you, Lance-chan? > Ash asked, tears welling up in his eyes.

< No… that was nice. > Lance replied.

After a few minutes, Ash looked nervous as he slid into Lance’s body. Lance smiled at him. < It’s fine, Ash. >

< I’m just scared. >

< Oh. You’re afraid you’ll hurt me? >

< Nods. >

< Don’t worry, Ash. > Lance said. She began moving on him. Ash gulped. * Oh Lugia! *

Lugia looked slightly annoyed. * Why does he keep saying that? *

< LANCE-CHAN! > Ash shrieked as he came. Lance’s eyes were glazed over with pleasure as her juices flowed down her legs. However, she had enough presence of mind to make sure that the psychic dampeners were in place.

Ash snuggled tightly against Lance’s body as he felt sleep threatening to overtake him. < I love you. >
< I love you too. > Lance reminded him. A pale silver light filled the room as the two lovers fell asleep, doubts and fears now forgotten.

End fic! Well, what do you think? *Smirks* didn’t think Shadow could actually write a lemon did you? Oh well. *Snickers*
