In a sudden burst of white and red, Kyuubey's head popped open like a pinata full of... marshmallows. Honestly, more shocking than the actual sudden headsplosion was the fact that the contents of said head were just more fluff. Ria sat, staring upon the remains in disbelief. The offer had been too good to be true, too entirely astonishing and utterly fun sounding to turn down. She'd already started thinking up all kinds of possibilities when she'd heard "magical girl". But now...
"It's too dangerous to do, I think, yes."
Avispa stepped out from the shadows, clearly already a magical girl herself. Her dress was green and black, accented with skulls as well as various puzzle-based bracelets, rings, and necklaces. Most notable, however, was the large skull she held in one hand with a gun barrel protruding from the end and wisps of smoke still trailing from it.
It wasn't just Ria, though, Avispa wasn't going to let anyone else suffer the same fate she'd been burdened with.
Ria blinked, surprised, amazed. As she opened her mouth to comment, to say it was "cool" or make any kind of excited remark... a rustling in the shadows and the approach of a very familiar entity gave her pause.
It was anyone's guess what a random invitation for tea was actually for when it came from a man like Aeolia Schenberg. The man had plans and plans for his plans. He planned for the future, planned for his plans for the future, and left plans upon plans to go with his plans and planned plans. Honestly, who really knew what "tea" meant.
But when Kanan stepped inside and saw nothing more than a tea set upon a table and Aeolia at the stovetop, perhaps it really was just tea? Before she could open her mouth to speak, he'd offered a warm welcome and an offering to sit which she gladly accepted.
Tea served alongside a traditional food staple of his, he sat down across from her with a soft smile and steepled fingers.
"No no no no wait no wait wait wait Nikkal, please, oh!"
It had been an astounding moment for both of them only a few hours earlier. Destroying imps, pointing at things they found funny (simple thrills, right?), and just having fun despite any dangers. But then they'd found it. A small box containing something they'd both never seen before. Something utterly foreign and shocking to them.
"Jenga."
With her fingers around the wooden piece, Nikkal was ever-so-slowly sliding it from the very center of the terrifying, precariously stacked structure. With a wide grin on her face and not a doubt in her mind, she pulled sharply and the piece slid free.
Wobble.
Wobble.
Wobble.
But the tower remained standing.
Slowly, Avispa reached for the tower. "No no no no" she was softly muttering, staring in awe at the puzzling reality that the tower hadn't toppled. Her fingers set upon one of the wooden pieces, carefully but...
Well it wasn't his fault. They'd been exploring the Witch's lair for hours and when they'd finally stumbled upon a room with things in it, it was food of all things. Even if they didn't need the food, the temptation was too great. And now they were running, from the Witch, following the path on the map that Phylus had so brillaintly prepared. The witch's lair was like a complex puzzle, but with their skills combined they weren't having any problems at all with it.
They were just having problems with running from the witch. Neither Avispa nor Phylus wanted to turn around and fight when death was so close on their heels. This was about surviving.
"Throw the food, yes!"
...and throw the food Phylus did, and lodged in the Witch's nose did it become. As tempting as it was to laugh, they both spun around and with a sudden branch-skull combo attack the Witch burst into thousands of itty bitty candies.
There was nothing better, honestly, than flying through the air just to pass the time, just to relax, just to have some fun. Admittedly, there had been no need for the two of them to be flying along after a simple grocery run but neither Esp nor Akiko could complain.
Several clouds met their end as Esp sailed through them, at least until Akiko gave him a little bonk on the head to get him back on track. With a proud flap of his wings, they both descended back to the earth, back home.
As they landed, and Esp shifted back to being human, Akiko rewarded him with a kiss on the lips and a small laugh. "I ll have to make something special tonight as thanks, hmm?"
Blipping into existence, Avispa grinned wide as she stepped upon new, unfamiliar ground. She'd made a number of little gadgets, a number of little creations that she'd wanted to use and this one had teleported her right to the world of an ally. Kalfour, specifically. His symbol had appeared on the surface of her teleporter and she hadn't hesitated in using it.
What she hadn't expected, however, was that she'd teleport and land right in front of him. Surely, he couldn't have been expecting a jadeblood to just appear out of nowhere, and his reaction proved it. It didn't matter, though, because Avispa didn't look at all threatening and instead of acknowledging the awkward silence that was threatening to fall, she just smiled wide and waved her hand at him happily. "Hello there Kalfour, yes?"
Gawking would be the correct term for what Kal was doing. He'd scrambled for a moment, mentally, on what to do; but she'd spoken first. Relaxing only slightly, though he remained mostly tense with a slight pounding in his head, he blinked his eye at her and asked a question that he was sure he already knew the answer to: "Avispa, right?"
"And this one-- Avispa." Zurahe sat, pointing at an image in a rather questionable book "'Vispa pay attention."
"But um, Zurahe look!" Avispa pleaded, trying to point at another place in the book, at another section that didn't even have any trolls in it. "Look look look, yes!"
With a light bop on the head, Avispa blinked multiple times before focusing again. Zurahe had been trying for the better part of an hour to get the girl to actually learn something. She'd managed to pick up moiraillegiance in a few moments, she'd even grasped the concept of auspicism after a few moments, but now that she was trying her hand at kismesissitude and matespritship? Avispa's head was so far in the clouds that it was utterly impossible to bring her back to this little teaching session.
"Look, study it yourself." Zurahe sighed, pushing the book towards Avispa. "I'll quiz you later."
"Oh, um, a quiz!" Avispa beamed, smiling. "Those have problems, puzzles!"
Even in light of recent events, specifically team Plasma simply being batshit out of their minds, it was easy to sit back, relax, and solve puzzles. Avispa had a peculiar preference for having picnics, regularly, with all of her Pokemon. While it wasn't uncommon for trainers to have their Pokemon out, it was uncommon for her to keep her Pokemon contained.
She leaned back, resting against her Metagross. Considering its size and sturdiness it had no issue with it. Sitting, heavily, upon the ground, her Metagross seemed all too pleased with sunbathing, of all things.
At either side of her, nestled against her legs, were her Beedrill and Vespiquen. Both Pokemon had seemingly tired of buzzing about and were resting quite pleasantly. Nearby, keeping a watchful eye, was her ever-working Absol. Never once was a detail overlooked, a risk unassesed, or a danger ignored; though that didn't mean that a head scratch or treat would go unaccepted.
The remaining two were an oddity, even to her. They honestly were different Pokemon every time she interacted with them, but they always possessed a strong loyalty and friendliness towards her. The first, a Porygon, and the second, an Unown, were both never near and never far. Oddly enough, like her Metagross, they never ate a thing.
Smiling, she sat while nibbling at toast with a few dabs of honey on it (her favorite) until a surprisingly familiar set of Pokemon settled nearby, earning a confused glance from her and a wary eye from her Absol. A Skarmory and a Braviary, both with wings outstretched before they settled, we're accompanied by a very familiar trainer.
"Hello Zurahe, you have really good timing, yes!"
"Let me guess, puzzles?" Zurahe couldn't help a little eye roll as Avispa's features lit up with momentary surprise, though it was replaced by a moment of confusion as a certain Unown accidentally nudged against her arm in pursuit of a certain Porygon. "Alright, what's the puzzle this time?"
"It's a battle puzzle, yes! In two parts!"
Battle. That was a new one for Avispa. Normally she'd be the one asking "let's see what you can do" before pummeling at least one of the puzzle girl's Pokemon into the dirt. But how on earth was a battle a puzzle? Something was up. Couldn't hurt to humor her, though, given the girl's enthusiasm. With a nod that showed only the slightest hesitation, she waited for the explanation.
"Well, um, you need two Pokemon first, yes" slowly, Avispa was rising to her feet, smiling wide. "and one for the second part, I think!"
"What for?"
"First, a double battle!" Avispa seemed all too happy with the proclamation before she continued on, explaining. "Then, a team battle! Me and you, Zurahe! Versus anyone, I think."
There were only a million ways this could go wrong, really. Avispa starting battles, leading them against others, actually willingly standing up to partake in battles... Maybe something was rubbing off on the girl. Zurahe had shown up to battle, sure, but now that Avispa had brought it up she was doing her best to not seem too overly pleased by it. The last thing she needed was the girl pleading for the two of them to go out on some grand adventure. In any event, she had to choose.
"Alright, Avispa. Tell you what. I'll pick my two first, and we'll do this." Oops, there was the smirk. She couldn't hide it, especially not when she threw forth two pokeballs and released her Meloetta and Escavalier upon the field. A dangerous combination, really. She knew how powerful the two were apart, and now she was going to show off how well they worked together. The awed expression that Avispa was making only bolstered her confidence in the choices.
Swiftly, Unown and Porygon floated around and took stances in front of Avispa. She hadn't said a word and instead of commenting, just beamed happily at her two Pokemon. "Oh, um, okay sure!"
"Avispa."
"That's me-- oh I mean, hello Zurahe, hi?"
"Actually choose your Pokemon, Avispa, don't let them choose for you." Zurahe corrected, mentally facepalming at the girl's inaction and reaction.
At that, Avispa blinked a few times before nodding and glancing around. Surprisingly swiftly, for Avispa, she turned back and smiled wide. "Metagross. Vespiquen!"
Bad. Very bad. The last time she'd seen the girl's Metagross it hadn't been one. She'd honestly been impressed initially that Avispa had taken on such a potentially powerful and massively complicated Pokemon, but in the end she had made it work. Now, here, she had to fight the thing... Plus the buzzing queen that Avispa had taken a liking to from the start. This wouldn't be an easy fight for either of them.
An easy fight it wasn't. Metagross could take a beating and give it right back, Vespiquen had a particular knack for hitting vitals, delivering debilitating ailments, and above all else dodging hits. Meanwhile, Escavalier performed much like Metagross, dealing out hits and taking them while Meloetta danced and sang, strengthening herself as well as Escavalier. Compared to earlier battles that the two had engaged in, this one was a first. Neither side was at a clear advantage and neither side could seem to turn the tides in their favor.
Eventually, Zurahe held up a hand and couldn't help but laugh. It wasn't a mocking laugh in any way, but instead it was a pleased, happy laugh. Of all the things she'd expected today, fighting Avispa to a stalemate wasn't one of them. "You did good, Avispa."
"Oh oh oh oh did I really, maybe?" the girl was hopping up and down, all too happy that she hadn't been defeated. "Yay, yes, yay yay yay; and good job!" and then she was hugging her Pokemon, seemingly imparting some of her happiness upon them as well. She was entirely, utterly, happy.
Zurahe allowed the girl her time to jump around and took the time to tend to her own Pokemon, a smile on her face. Everyone had done well, there was no disappointment. Only a bit of pride. Who'd have thought that a little girl with a Combee and unlimited optimism could get so far? Not without help, of course, but she'd never own up to having helped the girl at all. Never in a million years.
But then there was that one thing, that thing that Avispa had mentioned. The second part of the "puzzle", and considering the look on the girl's face, it was time for that. With a grin, she glanced to her Skarmory that had busied itself with tormenting pidgeys and readied herself. Avispa, still so very excited, had motioned her Absol closer. "Are you ready, maybe?"
"Waiting' on you, slowpoke. Let's go pummel somebody."
That afternoon, over seven dozen confused trainers rushed their Pokemon to the Pokemon center. Not a single one among them would forget the two responsible for the surprise.
WARNINGS: Uh, a lot of them? Seriously be aware that this covers a lot of nonconsensual material and very, very questionable... well, everything. Plus sexual themes and just generally not good stuff. I didn't revise any of it, so this is literally first-run brain-fic without any refining or adjusting.
If you accept that this could potentially be a very "D: what the fuck" nsfw fic, then read on.
"Mm, I suppose that is a bit more complicated than your earlier lessons... Here, allow me to demonstrate..."
Some time had passed, and since the first of the demonstrations there had been many more that followed. No other soul heard a word or learned of what they had been up to, as per Perrix's orders, and no one had any reason to suspect that the so-called "Dungeon Dives" involved going deep into a different kind of "dungeon" in search of treasure.
At first, Perrix had been utterly certain that he'd have his fun once and be done with it. A little, well, stress relief to take his mind off of things. There was no reason not to, after all, and it wasn't like he didn't enjoy himself doing so either. With a simple command under the guise of 'teaching', she'd done anything he asked of her. She was quick to learn, too, from anything he said. He'd made up several lies, of course, to help her differentiate between their activites and 'what matesprits did'. She was full of questions, and that was precisely what led to his mistake. He'd told her "Next time, Kusbir."
But it wasn't a mistake. Not after he'd given it some thought. He had a troll who he could do, quite literally, anything he wanted to. Though there were occasional uncertainties that arose, he had a golden opportunity that he realized he'd be a fool to pass on. He had two greenbloods, now; one wrapped around his finger and another one as the source of his black feelings. With a few moments of preparation, he had everything he would need to carry out his devious plan. No matter what, he'd end up on top; literally.
As she sat at her husktop, Avispa idly toyed with a puzzle. With everything she'd been learning away from her hive, it was nice to get back to puzzles and distract herself again. It was relatively easy to separate things in her mind, after all it was like having a pile of a million jigsaw puzzles and simply categorizing the pieces into their own little piles. If the piece didn't belong in the puzzle, it wasn't worth considering! Until a sudden pester appeared on her husktop, she hadn't even been considering what had gone on between Perrix and herself. But the moment she read the message, she couldn't think about anything else. She'd learned that hands-on experience was how she learned best and, well, what she enjoyed most. If anyone had said she'd be learning this, pailing, like she was? She would've been confused beyond words and, probably, scared. But it was reality, and she was quickly preparing for a trip through the gates.
The message had demanded her presence on Perrix's world for a new lesson, a unique lesson. This time, he'd said she didn't need anything in addition. No notes, no husktop, no puzzles, no skulls. He'd provide so long as she followed the rules; and she would learn. It took her no time at all to arrive, she'd travelled the gates multiple times before after all, but her arrival was more unusual than normal. As she landed, preparing to call out for Perrix, there was a sudden pinprick and her world went black.
"Sorry, Kusbir. Nothing personal... yet."
Perrix's preparations had been anything but good-natured. He'd gathered several different 'tools' that could have their uses in what he had in store, as well as various restraint implements, and most importantly he'd gathered two unconscious greenbloods. The first he'd simply blindfolded and dropped on the floor in the center of the room. He'd only need to give a simple command once she woke and there wouldn't be any resistance. The second, though, he'd been sure to dig his claws into before he'd restrained her. With ropes binding her tightly, even going so far as to wrap around and hold her head in place by her horns, he'd positioned his kismesis perfectly... to watch.
Of course, he didn't want his willing participant to realize she was being watched, so he'd silenced his kismesis with a device of his own creation. Far better than a gag, she wouldn't be able to make a sound... but she'd see every little thing. He'd show her exactly what he could do, and he wouldn't do it to her. She'd watch, and he wouldn't allow her any satisfaction. He'd deny her everything and savor the hate welling up in her eyes. Just imagining it was enough to stir up a fire within him. To his great pleasure, she was the first to wake.
Pherae's eyes snapped open, glancing from Perrix to the blindfolded, naked greenblood on the floor, and then back to him. Though she couldn't look down to see, she knew that she, too, had been robbed of her clothes. It didn't take long for her to realize exactly what was going on, and the smug grin plastered across Perrix's face made everything that much worse. That bastard. He'd succeeded, alright, and there wasn't a thing she could do to stop the pure hatred that welled up inside of her. If the ropes didn't hold, she'd tear him limb from limb... and make sure to show him exactly who called the shots, exactly where his place was.
But, upon the floor, Avispa was stirring back into consciousness. She'd tried to reach for the blindfold, first, but at Perrix's command she hesitated and, after a moment, lowered her hand away without touching it. "Is this the lesson?" she asked, slowly sitting up while instinctively covering herself. It wasn't easy to miss that she'd lost her clothes at some point or another, but what was confusing her most was trying to predict what the 'lesson' would be.
"Show me, Kusbir." Perrix spoke to Avispa, though he kept his eyes locked on Pherae. "Prove you've learned what I taught you in the last lesson. Show just how big you are."
Without taking his eyes off of Pherae, and an unmistakably triumphant grin over his features, Perrix took great pleasure in the greenblood following his exact orders. That, paired with the utter contempt he could see burning in Pherae's eyes, set about a stirring between his own legs. He'd be sure to paint the girl blue in plain view, showing off precisely how big and virile he was and exactly why anyone else was simply missing out.
That afternoon, Perrix carried out exactly what he'd planned to. Without question, Avispa followed every order she'd been given. By the time Perrix was finished with her, there was more blue on her body than there was the gray of her skin. Pherae, though, remained untouched; though that wasn't to say that she hadn't made a mess of her own. Perrix's plan had had its intended effect, and there was a considerably slick, green mess coating Pherae's thighs and below where she'd been bound. With a swift jab, he made good use of the equalist once more. He wasn't offering even the slightest satisfaction to her, and he'd be able to dangle over her the need he had made boil inside of her. She'd come for a fight, sure, but that wouldn't be the only way she'd take him.
Avispa was of no concern, though. He'd used her to the point that she'd passed out. Likely for quite some time, too. Perrix had no worry at all when he'd grabbed hold of Pherae's body and set off to deposit her back on her world. He did, however, have worry when he returned to a surprising lack of a blue-stained greenblood upon his floor.
His only clue that his plan had overlooked one major point, one dangerous player, one extreme risk, only struck him after the yellowblood's gauntlet did. His plan, though terrible, had left everyone involved alive. Her plan differed entirely.

Sig - Zurahe & Avispa - Pokemon AU Trainer Battle

But then there was that one thing, that thing that Avispa had mentioned. The second part of the "puzzle", and considering the look on the girl's face, it was time for that. With a grin, she glanced to her Skarmory that had busied itself with tormenting pidgeys and readied herself. Avispa, still so very excited, had motioned her Absol closer. "Are you ready, maybe?"
"Waiting' on you, slowpoke. Let's go pummel somebody."
That afternoon, over seven dozen confused trainers rushed their Pokemon to the Pokemon center. Not a single one among them would forget the two responsible for the surprise.

"Mm, I suppose that is a bit more complicated than your earlier lessons... Here, allow me to demonstrate..."
Some time had passed, and since the first of the demonstrations there had been many more that followed. No other soul heard a word or learned of what they had been up to, as per Perrix's orders, and no one had any reason to suspect that the so-called "Dungeon Dives" involved going deep into a different kind of "dungeon" in search of treasure.
At first, Perrix had been utterly certain that he'd have his fun once and be done with it. A little, well, stress relief to take his mind off of things. There was no reason not to, after all, and it wasn't like he didn't enjoy himself doing so either. With a simple command under the guise of 'teaching', she'd done anything he asked of her. She was quick to learn, too, from anything he said. He'd made up several lies, of course, to help her differentiate between their activites and 'what matesprits did'. She was full of questions, and that was precisely what led to his mistake. He'd told her "Next time, Kusbir."
But it wasn't a mistake. Not after he'd given it some thought. He had a troll who he could do, quite literally, anything he wanted to. Though there were occasional uncertainties that arose, he had a golden opportunity that he realized he'd be a fool to pass on. He had two greenbloods, now; one wrapped around his finger and another one as the source of his black feelings. With a few moments of preparation, he had everything he would need to carry out his devious plan. No matter what, he'd end up on top; literally.
As she sat at her husktop, Avispa idly toyed with a puzzle. With everything she'd been learning away from her hive, it was nice to get back to puzzles and distract herself again. It was relatively easy to separate things in her mind, after all it was like having a pile of a million jigsaw puzzles and simply categorizing the pieces into their own little piles. If the piece didn't belong in the puzzle, it wasn't worth considering! Until a sudden pester appeared on her husktop, she hadn't even been considering what had gone on between Perrix and herself. But the moment she read the message, she couldn't think about anything else. She'd learned that hands-on experience was how she learned best and, well, what she enjoyed most. If anyone had said she'd be learning this, pailing, like she was? She would've been confused beyond words and, probably, scared. But it was reality, and she was quickly preparing for a trip through the gates.
The message had demanded her presence on Perrix's world for a new lesson, a unique lesson. This time, he'd said she didn't need anything in addition. No notes, no husktop, no puzzles, no skulls. He'd provide so long as she followed the rules; and she would learn. It took her no time at all to arrive, she'd travelled the gates multiple times before after all, but her arrival was more unusual than normal. As she landed, preparing to call out for Perrix, there was a sudden pinprick and her world went black.
"Sorry, Kusbir. Nothing personal... yet."
Perrix's preparations had been anything but good-natured. He'd gathered several different 'tools' that could have their uses in what he had in store, as well as various restraint implements, and most importantly he'd gathered two unconscious greenbloods. The first he'd simply blindfolded and dropped on the floor in the center of the room. He'd only need to give a simple command once she woke and there wouldn't be any resistance. The second, though, he'd been sure to dig his claws into before he'd restrained her. With ropes binding her tightly, even going so far as to wrap around and hold her head in place by her horns, he'd positioned his kismesis perfectly... to watch.
Of course, he didn't want his willing participant to realize she was being watched, so he'd silenced his kismesis with a device of his own creation. Far better than a gag, she wouldn't be able to make a sound... but she'd see every little thing. He'd show her exactly what he could do, and he wouldn't do it to her. She'd watch, and he wouldn't allow her any satisfaction. He'd deny her everything and savor the hate welling up in her eyes. Just imagining it was enough to stir up a fire within him. To his great pleasure, she was the first to wake.
Pherae's eyes snapped open, glancing from Perrix to the blindfolded, naked greenblood on the floor, and then back to him. Though she couldn't look down to see, she knew that she, too, had been robbed of her clothes. It didn't take long for her to realize exactly what was going on, and the smug grin plastered across Perrix's face made everything that much worse. That bastard. He'd succeeded, alright, and there wasn't a thing she could do to stop the pure hatred that welled up inside of her. If the ropes didn't hold, she'd tear him limb from limb... and make sure to show him exactly who called the shots, exactly where his place was.
But, upon the floor, Avispa was stirring back into consciousness. She'd tried to reach for the blindfold, first, but at Perrix's command she hesitated and, after a moment, lowered her hand away without touching it. "Is this the lesson?" she asked, slowly sitting up while instinctively covering herself. It wasn't easy to miss that she'd lost her clothes at some point or another, but what was confusing her most was trying to predict what the 'lesson' would be.
"Show me, Kusbir." Perrix spoke to Avispa, though he kept his eyes locked on Pherae. "Prove you've learned what I taught you in the last lesson. Show just how big you are."
Without taking his eyes off of Pherae, and an unmistakably triumphant grin over his features, Perrix took great pleasure in the greenblood following his exact orders. That, paired with the utter contempt he could see burning in Pherae's eyes, set about a stirring between his own legs. He'd be sure to paint the girl blue in plain view, showing off precisely how big and virile he was and exactly why anyone else was simply missing out.
That afternoon, Perrix carried out exactly what he'd planned to. Without question, Avispa followed every order she'd been given. By the time Perrix was finished with her, there was more blue on her body than there was the gray of her skin. Pherae, though, remained untouched; though that wasn't to say that she hadn't made a mess of her own. Perrix's plan had had its intended effect, and there was a considerably slick, green mess coating Pherae's thighs and below where she'd been bound. With a swift jab, he made good use of the equalist once more. He wasn't offering even the slightest satisfaction to her, and he'd be able to dangle over her the need he had made boil inside of her. She'd come for a fight, sure, but that wouldn't be the only way she'd take him.
Avispa was of no concern, though. He'd used her to the point that she'd passed out. Likely for quite some time, too. Perrix had no worry at all when he'd grabbed hold of Pherae's body and set off to deposit her back on her world. He did, however, have worry when he returned to a surprising lack of a blue-stained greenblood upon his floor.
His only clue that his plan had overlooked one major point, one dangerous player, one extreme risk, only struck him after the yellowblood's gauntlet did. His plan, though terrible, had left everyone involved alive. Her plan differed entirely.
"Surprise, motherfucker."
