Chapter 8

Chapter 8- Round two

Jolt had crashed instantly upon returning to his bed in the cave, and slept late into the next morning. Snow checked on him several times, wondering what he could have been doing to make him so tired. At last, close to noon, she got tired of waiting for him to wake up. She silently walked over to him and woke him up with a gentle nuzzle. Jolt stirred, then yawned and looked up at her. "Oh hey. Morning Snow." He said through his sleepiness. "It's almost the afternoon, silly." She said happily, glad he was finally awake. Today she was going to spend the whole day with him, no matter what anyone else said. "Let's get you some breakfast." Jolt nodded and rose, stretching, then followed Snow to the middle chamber. Again, everyone was out doing their own things, leaving the two alone. "Where is everyone else?" Jolt asked as he picked up a Pecha berry and took a bite. "Off doing their own things. I waited here until you got up." Jolt smiled at her warmly, glad she would do that for him. "Also, I was wondering if maybe you and I could go down to the city and hang out there today?" she asked, hoping he didn't already have plans. She silently sighed in relief when he answered, "Sure, I'd love to." Jolt ate a few more berries, then they both left the cave and headed for the city below.

Snow had a great time with Jolt down in Snowpoint. They walked together around the park, then sat together, just talking for about an hour. She didn't know how much Jolt had enjoyed that, but she was having a good time just being around him. After that they scored some cooked sausage off a cook by giving him sad eyes. The cook just smiled and gave them what he was cooking, and they walked off with it gratefully. It was a nice break from eating nothing but berries, despite their "Feast" the previous night. The one negative were some of the other people and Pokémon. As they walked together, some Pokémon they passed made jokes or vulgar comments about Snow. She admitted to herself she liked it when Jolt silenced them by extending an iron claw, or shooting them with a single, electrified pin missile. A trainer even saw the two and attempted to catch them both. It wouldn't have worked anyway, as they were both still technically caught Pokémon, but Jolt gave him more than a few pin missiles in response. The scene turned into fight, however, when the trainers Pokémon, a Pikachu, jumped down with one of his companions Pokémon, an Axew, angered. "Don't touch my trainer," he warned, angrily. The sight of the two tiny Pokémon so angry was too much for Jolt and Snow, however, and they both fell down laughing. The trainers female companion with odd purple hair soon joined them laughing at the trainer trying to pull out, Jolt's pin missiles. This set the Pikachu off, and the trainer didn't need much encouragement before he shouted, "Pikachu, iron tail!" Jolt immediately sprang up, his own iron claw engaged, and blocked the blow. He then slashed the Pikachu across the face, sending it rolling backwards. "Watch it, kid," Jolt warned in a threatening way. All six of them, Pokémon and human alike were immediately stunned by what just happened. Wanting to avoid a full scale battle, Jolt extended a paw to Snow and helped her up. "Let's go," he said, and they both started walking away. They hadn't gone more than 5 yards when Jolt heard the Pikachu mutter "I knew he wouldn't fight. Pussy." Jolt stopped in his tracks. There was no way in hell he wasn't going to beat that Pikachu now. "You want a fight? Well you just got one," Jolt said sharply. He whipped around to face him, and they both took positions opposite from each other in a nearby playground. "Pikachu?" his trainer called questioningly. "Let it happen, Ash" said the female. "Ready?" Pikachu sneered. "Go!" shouted Jolt, immediately charging at him. He saw Snow out of the corner of his eye watching him, and he didn't want to miss an opportunity to impress her. Pikachu shot a thunderbolt at him, which Jolt overpowered with ease using thunder, which he had learned a few days prior. The thunder struck Pikachu directly, and even though it was type ineffective, it made him cry out in pain. Jolt grinned and jumped back. Sending this little runt to the Pokémon center would be easier than he thought. Pikachu then created an energy ball and shot it at him, which Jolt again easily overpowered with a shadow ball. Jolt won again with his iron claws against Pikachu's iron tail. By now Pikachu was losing hope, and he was injured. He desperately tried to use a volt tackle on Jolt, but he was gunned down by pin missile before he could get going too fast. Finally, right after it started, Pikachu laid in the snow, out cold. Jolt said nothing, but immediately turned and walked away with Snow.

"Nice one," Snow said when they had gone so far. "He made me put more power into my attacks than usual, but it wasn't too hard." Jolt replied. "Even so, it was impressive," Snow said, hoping more praise would keep the conversation going how she wanted it. She wanted to let him know she liked him, and was even on the verge of developing feelings for him, but she didn't dare say it directly. Jolt just smiled and brushed up against her, His fur returning to normal, soft state after the battle. Jolt had meant it in a friendly way, maybe a little flirtingly, but Snow took it as a sign. She leaned up and licked his cheek quickly, the looked away blushing. Jolt said nothing, blushing hard himself. He wasn't sure if he should say anything about what he had done with Midnight, or what he was going to do that night with Rubi. He decided against it, at least for the time being, and nuzzled her cheek once before continuing walking. Their entire exchange had gone on without a word.

They spent the rest of the day together, and managed to beg cooked pork chops off another chef. Their conversations had been a lot different since Snow kissed him. She was a lot more flirty now, adding veiled messages and flirts into their conversation. She was convinced Jolt liked her, too, and this wasn't entirely untrue. Jolt was attracted to her, as he had been since they met, but now there were other girls in his life, too. He knew he wanted to be with Snow, but he also felt attached to Midnight, and Rubi, Sparky, and the others too. He'd even caught Frost looking at him from afar, but she always ran away blushing when he looked back. Jolt was genuinely unsure who he wanted to be with, so he decided he'd ride it out and see. After their dinner, they headed back up the mountain. By then the others were back from the day's activities, and he nodded at Rubi and Midnight as they sat in a corner, talking. "I'm going to sleep. Night Jolt, thanks for the fun day." "Thank you for inviting me along. I had a blast," Jolt replied. Snow made sure no one was looking, then shyly leaned up and kissed his cheek again before heading to bed. Jolt wondered how Rubi and Midnight would have reacted if they had seen that, but he figured they probably wouldn't care much. As far as he knew, they only wanted him for sex, which he was happy to give. His first time mating had been amazing, and he knew it wouldn't be his last.

They waited until everyone had gone to sleep, like last time, before Jolt, Midnight and Rubi met up and left the cave, and made their way down to the clearing they had been in the night before. Jolt and Midnight were excited because they knew how amazing mating felt. Rubi was excited because of how amazing Midnight had made it sound. They almost ran to the clearing when it came into view, not wanting to wait any long
