Prologue On a cold February day in Snowpoint City, a Shiny Luxray by the name of Allen pulled his 2015 Toyota Highlander into the parking lot of Building Blocks Childcare Center, the place that he worked, and turned off the car, then getting out after unbuckling and heading towards the entrance. The right passenger door would open as he got out, and a Shiny Shinx would step out - Allen's eight-year-old daughter, Autumn, who began following her dad inside. This wasn't some sort of unorthodox punishment that Allen had come up with, if you're curious. Autumn was currently on her winter break, and today, Allen had come up with the idea to have her come to the daycare with him and help out. She was rather reluctant to do so at first, but after he promised that there wouldn't be much for her to do, the shiny lynx decided to give it a try for a day. What she would have to help with wasn't much - just keep the little ones happy and entertained, and help feed them at lunch. On occasion, Autumn would have to get a student or two to the potty in time, but she wouldn't have to wipe or anything, so no big deal to her. After getting checked in for the day, and using the public bathroom in the main hall as the orange juice from breakfast wanted out quicker than expected, Autumn followed her father to the classroom he taught in. There were a few little mons there, and most of them had yet to arrive, so the Shinx would find someplace to sit and wait for the other mons to get there, thinking about how her day at Building Blocks will go. After waiting around for ten minutes... Part 1 The other little mons ran straight into the classroom, Autumn quickly getting up so one of them wouldn't trip over her by accident. She would stand out of the way for a minute before her dad was able to calm them down, and get everyone together. Today was going to be mostly play-based, and the students chose a variety of activities. Autumn would even join in, hanging out at the sensory table with a few others and playing with many of the water beads, enjoying the feeling as they ran down her paws. Allen smiled at seeing them enjoy theirselves, and gave lots of praise to a Bulbasaur on an Omastar that he made out of clay. Every now and then, Autumn would try making something out of clay, but for the most part, the water beads were what was keeping her and a few others entertained the most. After a little while, however, the inevitable would come, as an Oshawott that the shiny lynx had been playing with suddenly announced that he needed to go potty... Part 2 Autumn tells the Oshawott that she has to go potty as well, and she starts leading him to the bathrooms, Allen telling her the way there just before they leave. They follow the Luxray's directions, and soon arrive at the bathrooms, Autumn and the Oshawott student (named Jacob) able to do their business with no issues. After they finish peeing, they flush the toilet, and wash their paws, Autumn assisting Jacob with that. Once their paws are dry, they leave the bathroom, and when they turn back to Autumn's father's classroom, they are shocked to see that of all things, a brawl had broken out between some of the students, none of which Autumn recognized to be in her dad's class, and a few of the teachers were trying to break it up. Not wanting to get herself involved or caught in the line of fire, Autumn takes Jacob by the paw and turns around, deciding to find an alternate route back to the classroom. With neither one of them having a map of the daycare, getting back may not be easy. Along the walk, the first thing they encounter is... Part 3 ...one of the caretakers, a Zangoose, looking at them with a bit of concern. "Oh, dear...seems as though you're lost." she told them, leaning down to pet Autumn and Jacob's heads. "You weren't involved in that big fight in the hall, were you?" Autumn and Jacob both shook their heads. "We weren't...in fact, that's kinda why we're lost. We didn't want to get ourselves involved in that mess." the Shiny Shinx explained. "Y-yeah." Jacob nodded. "Can you help us get back to Mr. Starbend's class, please, ma'am?" the Oshawott asked. The Zangoose nodded. "Sure. Follow me...i know of another way to get there." she told them, before turning and beginning to walk down one of the corridors. "Okay!" Autumn and Jacob replied, both of them following the Zangoose, and passing the infant classroom along the way. Before long, they come across a door at the end of the corridor, Zangoose opening it up and heading inside. Autumn and Jacob are somewhat hopeful that this is Allen's classroom, but as soon as they head in, they find that it's a much different area... Part 4 "Uh...ma'am, are you sure this is the way to my dad's class?" Autumn asked, her and Jacob both noticing that the room was stocked with various daycare supplies, the Shiny Shinx noticing a few cribs, some crayons, and construction paper right off the bat. "Of course, sweeties." The Zangoose assured them. "Just keep following me, alright?" she says. "Um...okay." Autumn nods, doing as she is told. While Jacob isn't really interested in anything other than getting back to class, Autumn's curiosity is getting the better of her, looking around at the various items that were kept in the storage room. Strollers, reusable plates, high chairs, safety gates, and a lot of other things...the shiny lynx was amazed at the amount of stuff the daycare owners managed to keep in here. But her curiosity really peaked, when they began passing by the area where all the diapers and pull-ups were kept, and she almost wanted to stop and look. So many different colorful packages...even though Autumn was eight, those garments did look like they'd be nice and comfortable to be in, and she found herself wanting to wear one. However...how could she convince the Zangoose, or anyone else, to let her wear one of the garments, without Jacob finding out? Part 5 Autumn quickly thought of something...instead of convincing Zangoose to let her wear them, why not distract her and Jacob both? And coming up with one wouldn't be difficult, as the Shinx saw some red and blue colored plastic bins with various baby toys inside of them. "Perfect..." she whispered. "Hey, Jacob!" she called, the Oshawott turning his head to face her. "Yeah?" he wondered. "There's some t-toys over there that i think you might like." Autumn told him, pointing to the plastic bins. "Why don't you go and pick out one you might like?" "Oh? Okay then!" Jacob responds with a smile, dashing off to the bins while Zangoose went off with him. Not wasting a second, Autumn went over to the pull-up packages and swiped one out of an open pack, quickly stuffing it down her shirt before heading back over to Jacob and Zangoose. "Well?" Autumn asked, making sure her forepaws didn't go anywhere near his shirt. "See anything you like?" Jacob sighed. "It's mostly baby stuff." he replied. "I mean, the xylophones look kinda neat...but i'll wait and play with them later." "It's alright, Jacob. However, i think we've been in here long enough." Zangoose told them. "You don't want Mr. Starbend getting worried about where you'rea t, do you?" she asked. Autumn quickly shook her head. "N-no, Miss Zangoose...certainly not. He's my dad." "Thought so." Zangoose said, before walking towards the exit with Autumn and Jacob following her. While the Shinx was ready to be back in her dad's class, she was also wondering how she'd be able to get pull-up on without him noticing. Distracting Zangoose and Jacob worked, but distracting her dad might pose a bigger challenge. Maybe his class was on the other side of that door, and maybe it wasn't...but until she saw, there was no way of knowing. Part 6 As soon as Zangoose opened the door, Autumn took a good look at what was on the other side...and sure enough, it was her dad's class! "Finally!" Jacob exclaimed, dashing inside. "Jacob! There you are." Allen greeted with a smile, before turning to see his daughter walk in. "Autumn! What on earth took you so long?" Autumn gulped. "We...decided to find an alternate route because of the earlier fight." she explained. "And we might have hit a dead end or two..." "Oh...well, that's okay." Allen says, patting her head as Zangoose turns around and heads back to deal with other children. "I'm glad you came back when you did." "Really?" Autumn wondered. "These two over there need to go potty." Allen answered, pointing to a Shiny Helioptile and a Sentret, both of whom were squirming in place a bit. "You think you can take 'em?" "Hmm...sure!" Autumn answered, going over to them and grabbing their paws, before starting to lead them to the bathrooms. "Don't worry...i'll be back much sooner!" "You better!" Allen called out as she headed off. The Helioptile and Sentret both leaked a little along the way, but Autumn got them to the bathrooms just in time. "Phew..." she sighed with relief once they were there, going ahead and opening the stall doors for them. "Take as much time as you need, okay?" Neither one of them responded, immediately dashing to the toilets and sliding down their pants to relieve themselves. "Okay...while they're doing that..." Autumn whispered, quickly walking over to a wall that would block her off from the door leading in and out, and taking out the pull-up she had swiped earlier from underneath her shirt, looking at it for a second. It was a blue in color, with a print of a Furret walking on all fours, multiple paw prints dotting the front, and a star serving as a wetness indicator. The Shiny Shinx already liked how it looked, and after taking a quick look to make sure no one had come in, she quickly slid her pants and shorts down, before taking one step at a time into the pull-up, her shoes not getting in the way, and sliding it on. After getting the tailhole dealt with, she quickly walked up to the mirror to look at herself, a faint rustle heard with each step. When she looked back at herself, Autumn couldn't help but giggle at how silly she looked. She was going to be in third grade soon, and here she stood, wearing a pull-up...something meant more for a toddler or a bedwetter. Her dad would certainly tease her if he knew. The sound of a toilet flushing made her quickly scurry to get her underwear and pants back on, and the waistband of the pull-up would be covered up just in time! "We're done, Autumn!" the Shiny Helioptile announced. "Ready to come back?" "Heh...y-yep!" Autumn replied, before running back to class with them, now feeling thirsty. Eh...her dad's classroom had some small water bottles. She'd just get one to drink once they were back... Part 7 Once back, Autumn took one of the small water bottles, and began to take big sips of it, elicting a chuckle from both her father and the Shiny Helioptile she had just assisted. After a few minutes, the Shiny Shinx was finished, and after throwing the empty bottle away, she went back to tending to the children when need be. Ten minutes would pass before Autumn would feel a bit of pressure in her bladder start to build...and she was confused. Surely, she didn't have to pee so soon, given that those water bottles didn't have that many ounces? Well, usually, that would be true...except, those small water bottles had hydration crystals in them to help the little students with going to the potty, and Autumn's dad had neglected to tell her, likely forgetting that fact. She tries not to think about it too much, but the pressure grows quite rapidly, and a few minutes later, she's almost about to burst. But just as she rushes over to leave... "Autumn, wait!" Allen called out. Autumn freezes in place and gulps. "Y-yes, d-dad?" "I assume that you need the bathroom, sweetie...but before you go off, there's a few tasks i need you to do first." Allen told her. Autumn sighs. "L-like what?" "Nothing too complicated...at least, i would think." Allen replied. "Go help Jacob and Casper with stabilizing an airplane they're making out of Legos, and show Ryan how the Play-Doh works real quick." the Shiny Luxray told her. "You think you can manage?" Autumn takes a deep breath. "Y-yes, i can." the lynx nods, before slowly walking over to do as she was asked, trying as hard as she could not to break out into a potty dance...or at least, not look like she was about to. Part 8 Even with the amount of pressure in her bladder, that didn't stop Autumn from getting Jacob and Casper (the Shiny Helioptile from earlier) situated with their airplane. She also successfully taught Ryan (a Shiny Snivy) how the Play-Doh works...although she barely made it through the whole thing. Once done, she slowly walked back to her father. "D-dad?" she called out. "Yes, Autumn?" Allen replied, looking down at her. "I, uh...i...did what you...asked me to do." Autumn tells her. "You did, huh?" Allen asked, still unaware of just how badly his daughter needed to pee. "Y-yeah." Autumn nods, and right after saying that, she freezes when she feels her bladder give way and start emptying itself into the pull-up, an audible splattering noise accompanying it. The Shiny Shinx was quite mortified...even though he couldn't tell or see, she was still wetting herself right in front of her own dad, for Kyurem's sake! "Autumn? What's wrong?" Allen asks, before picking up on the splattering sound. "Wait...what the hell is that?" he wonders, the Shiny Luxray now starting to look around the room as to where the noise could be coming from, as Autumn tries her best to either not start crying, or keep her face from going red...however, with the latter, that's a losing battle, as she continues having her accident... Part 9 After a couple seconds, Allen's eyes center on Autumn once again, and he notices that she's red in the face. That's when something begins to click. "Oh, Kyurem...Autumn, i-i'm sorry." he says with a frown, giving her a few quick head pats. "If you had to go that badly, why didn't you tell me?" Autumn did not respond, but she was beginning to whisper as she finished wetting himself. Allen lets out a sigh, and grabs her by a forepaw. "It's alright...come on, princess. Daddy'll get you cleaned up." he tells her, before beginning to lead the shiny lynx out of the nursery. However, as he did, the Luxray decided to inspect the damage with his free paw, and when he put it to a leg, that's when confusion set in. "H-hold on." he utters. "I don't feel any pee, yet i swore you had an accident just now." he says to Autumn, her mouth beginning to open wide. Allen puts his free paw to the front of her pants... "But sure enough, it feels warm." Allen points out. "So...that must mean..." "DON'T SAY IT HERE!" Autumn suddenly screams out loud, startling her father, and catching the attention of everyone else in the classroom. "Autumn...what'd you scream like that for?" Casper asks. "What's wrong, small thunder cat?" a Starly adds. "N-n-nothing!" Autumn stammers, not wanting to be embarrassed in front of a bunch of other kids half her age. Fortunately, Allen seemed to understand. "It's something being me and Autumn, okay, kids?" he tells them. "I need to have a few minutes with her. Please stay in here while i'm gone, and don't cause any trouble, alright?" Allen asks, before heading off with Autumn. "Uh...o-okay, then." Casper shrugs, still wondering what the heck was going on...and so did Jacob, the two of them looking at each other for a moment. Maybe it was nothing, they thought, and Autumn was over-reacting over something small. So with that, they went back to playing with their Lego plane. Meanwhile, Allen would take Autumn to the nearest bathroom, and once there, he took her into a stall, and slid down her pants...just as he suspected from experience with students having accidents near him in the past, his daughter was wearing an absorbent undergarment. In this case, a pull-up. If there was ever a moment that Autumn wanted to sink down into the floor, this was it. "Autumn..." Allen spoke, confused at what he was seeing. "Do you...mind explaining why you are wearing a pull-up?" the Shiny Luxray asked, unsure as to whether he should get mad and scold her, burst out laughing and tease her, or comfort her and ask if she likes them. "U-u-um..." Autumn starts to try and come up with an excuse to give, fighting back tears as she does. There was no more hiding this from dad, but maybe a good enough lie would save her from likely getting a serious punishment? That was no guarantee, but she had a feeling that either way, her dad was going to tease her about this for a while. Part 10 After a few seconds, something came to mind...it likely wouldn't work, but she might as well try. "U-um...well, when i was with Jacob..." Autumn began. "He was w-whining about how he was in Pull-Ups too. So i wanted to cheer him up, and make him feel better...so when Zangoose led us through the nursery, i...took one and put it on." she says. Silence from Allen for a few seconds, before... "Nope...not true, Autumn." Allen rolls his eyes, before giving a quick shake of his head. "First off, your eyes were moving around a lot, and the tone of your voice was higher than normal just now." he points out. "Second...Jacob has been out of Pull-Ups for eight months now, and hasn't had an accident in four months. Did he not tell you this?" Autumn gulps again, still fighting back tears. "N-n-no..." she stammers. "Well, now you know..." Allen utters. "Now, tell me the truth...don't even think about telling me another lie." The Shiny Shinx groans. "Do i have to?" "Unless you want to get eight swats to your furry butt with the furbrush when we get home..." Allen warns. "Then you have to." Autumn shudders. "O-okay..." she utters, before taking a deep breath. "I...sorta became c-curious about wearing pull-ups, a-after seeing a few of the students w-wearing them." she half-lies. This catches Allen by surprise. "W-what?" "I-it's true..." Autumn nods, wiping away a tear that had formed in her left eye. "N-none of the kids i took to the potty, for that matter...but like, a Rockruff, and a Cubone, and a Piplup." she explains. "And i p-probably wouldn't have swiped one if it was just them i saw...it was only their waistbands i saw, it didn't h-hypnotize me for anything." "Then...what did?" Allen wonders. "While me and Jacob...w-went through the storage room, i saw the various colorful pull-up packages theirselves. And they looked nice and comfortable to be in." Autumn continues to explain, still red in the face. Strangely, she found herself feeling a bit better as she spoke, even though she was bracing herself for the teasing from dad that was likely going to ensue soon. "The temptation was easy to give in to...so i distracted Jacob and Zangoose with something, and swiped one while they weren't looking and hid it under my shirt. The next time i took kids to the potty, i put it on while no one was looking." "Uh...huh." Allen nods, still trying to completely process what his daughter was telling him, and trying to determine how to react next. "A-and...i'm guessing you...wet that deliberately?" Autumn jumps a bit. "N-not really." she shakes her head. "I had to pee quickly after drinking one of those little water bottles, and the need grew worse faster than i thought it would. So by the time i was done with the tasks you gave me, i could no longer hold back..." "Oh." the Shiny Luxray utters. "Well, Autumn...i'm glad you told the truth." he says. Autumn's ears perk up. "O-oh? You are, dad?" "Yes. Another lie...and admittedly, i...probably would've diapered you for a little while." Allen tells her. "But...since you didn't lie, i'll give you a lesser punishment." "A...l-lesser punishment?" Autumn wonders, Allen nodding in response. "For lying to me, you're going to sit in the time-out corner for eight minutes." Allen tells her, quickly pulling her pants back up. "Eight minutes?!" Autumn exclaims. "Autumn...you know how your minor punishments go." Allen says. "Spankings, you get no more than eight swats...and time-outs is one minute per age. Remember that the closer you get to your birthday in a few months, because it's going to go up another number." The shiny lynx sighs. "A-alright...i'll do my time, dad." she says. "Good, good. Now, are we ready to head back?" Allen asks. "Mm-hmm." Autumn nods, and with the that, the father and daughter duo leave the bathroom, and head back to Allen's classroom, Autumn getting sent straight to the time-out corner once they returned. A few of his students asked about it, including Jacob, but Allen was quick to come up with a lie in that regard, wanting to spare Autumn some embarrassment, and he told them that he had caught Autumn drawing with chalk on the walls of the bathroom, when she thought no one was looking. Sounds completely ludicrous, but it worked, none of his students thinking to ask further. Once Autumn's eight minutes were up, Allen got her out from the corner, and went off with her again for a minute, this time to change her into a fresh pull-up. And it would be the same Furret and paw prints design she swiped earlier. With that done, class could resume as normal, and this time, no more sudden absences after five to ten minutes...
