Chapter 2 Darious The Hyper Puppy Darious, Ribbon and Halvon had been invited to Chip’s home to play video games as none of them had anything to do during the final days of the Winter Festival. The group had wanted to attend certain events during the two week long festival but ended up not wanting to do much of anything following the events of Ruby’s party. Ribbon had been gravely wounded during the party leaving her in a weakened state. Darious had lost any desire to fight in the tournament and instead wished to take care of his friends and rethink some of his life choices, mainly his love interest in Sai the Eevee and Halvon the Oshawott. Darious liked Halvon a lot but over time he came to find that he was starting to fall hard for the oddly magical Eevee that had an extremely nice butt. Meadow and Chip’s home had a large observation orb that allowed for the Pokemon to project interesting images on it, in this case a video game. Meadow told them that she wanted their home to be a place where the children could come to get out of the cold and hang out with one another in a safe place. She encouraged them to use their things and to have fun, though to keep it sound as she didn’t like cleaning up after others. Darious, Chip, Ribbon and Halvon had been using the orb to play Pokemon Royal Rumble a video game where about 50 to 100 Pokemon were thrown into a large arena and had to fight to be the last one standing. It was a fun game that at first all 4 of them would only get so far and were playing at about a equal level, but over the past few weeks some of them were getting better than others and it was starting to get on one Pokémon’s nerves… “Damnit Darious! Stop cheat!” Ribbon yelled the Snowpix growled as her avatar character an ice Vulpix much like herself was knocked out of the competition by Darious who was using a Rockruff avatar that looked like him. Darious‘ s character was dancing over top of Ribbon’s knocked out body as he was one of the last ones standing. Ribbon threw her controller down. “I should punch you for pulling off such a bullshit tactic!” “What? I camped you out, get over it.” Darious snickered. He ducks a ice shard and sticks his tongue out at Ribbon. “Hey be careful you two, what if we make a mess, I do not want Meadow getting so upset that she kicks us out into the cold.” Halvon said while putting his own controller down, the Oshawott was one of the last ones standing along with about another 10 other participants. He looked worried which made both Ribbon and Darious calm down. Darious turned back to the screen where his character was just standing still. “We should team up next game.” “I’m better than you, you’ll only hold me back?” Ribbon asked as she sat there glaring at the screen. “You just got lucky…I let you win.” “I haven’t won yet, I still have a few others to take out.” Darious puts his paws on the Pokemon styled controller and began moving his character around as he picked up any berries or supplies that he found useful that Ribbon had been carrying and began searching for his next opponent. The strategy of this game was to outlast the others while slowly picking them off when you could. Most of the battles took place up close but all characters had long-range attacks that could be upgraded by finding the enhancement orbs around the map. His character was good at close range combat and if he managed to get in close could take out frail characters easily while holding his own against more bulky opponents like his. Darious was a brawler at heart and loved how this game incorporated that into it. The game had online features allowing for them to play with others around the island and possibly away even from it, though when they played with anyone off island it was laggy. It was amazing what could be achieved with psychic and electric Pokemon inventions. “You still have to find me Darious.” Halvon said confidently as they were able to play in the same room but were not able to see where the other was. Darious smirked as he had a good idea where Halvon was as he moved himself to the cliffs of the island map, they were on and took a defensive position. The map grew smaller each round, chunks of the island literally broke apart during the match and floated away. By the point the map was centered around a forest and cliff with the final eight Pokemon having to figure out where the other was. Between Darious taking Ribbon out and him moving to the safe zone two more were picked off. “Be careful Halvon, I am not the only one here.” Darious spoke as he used Dig to burrow underground. The ability only lasted for a few seconds and had a long cool down afterwards, but it was useful if you believed someone was nearby and you wanted to get the jump on them. Just as he did this a Quilava walked around his area and took up the camping area that Darious was just using. Once the Rockruff was confident of his sneak attack he lunged out of the dirt and tackled his opponent to the ground using several strong swipes to knock off the remaining HP and take his opponent out. Darious snickered and danced over his opponents grave like the troll he loved to be. “You are such an idiot!” Ribbon growled. “I fucking hate you Darious, Arceus I can’t wait to watch you lose.” “And what do I get if I win.” Darious giggled as he was having a lot of fun. It was sometimes fun to be a troll as he collected what he wanted and began moving on. One of the things he took off his opponent was the “Full Restore” which would refresh all of his cool downs at once and restore his Hp and Armor to full. It was a useful item that carried with it a long start up. Darious didn’t use it right away instead looking for a much more safe spot to restore himself as he was sure his spot would be discovered sooner rather than later. He still had Halvon to deal with as the Oshawott was better at camping and hiding than him. Darious noticed that the next safe zone was being shown and moved himself to it keeping out of view of others. “I’ll blow you if you win.” Ribbon spoke, the Vulpix puts her paws around his shoulders. “I’ll make you cum harder than your boyfriend can…” “Hey!” Halvon protested. “I meant Sai.” Ribbon said. “Now is not the time for that—“Darious stopped speaking as he saw a Rattata appear on the screen near him, the rodent Pokemon seemed to have noticed him in the distance and was moving to an vantage point. Darious didn’t know if he wanted to try to cut his new opponent off or keep moving towards the safe zone. With only 20 seconds left before he would have to deal with the breaking of the arena, he was sure it would be a foolish engagement. But maybe…he could knock her out quickly since it was a Rattata. Becoming convinced he could do everything at once the Rockruff moved in to engage the Rattata. “Pro strategy.” Darious spoke as he jumped into the air to strike. He missed the Rattata instead fall into to a pit trap that it had set for him. Gasping in fear he tried to get out of the pit only to see the ground under his character break away and he fell into the ocean below instantly losing… “Oh ya…pro strategy.” Ribbon snickered. “Oh Darious…” Halvon sighed. “That same Rattata knocked me out only moments ago, she never engaged me just set up traps and poked me with long range shit.” “My blow job…” “You always have your paws.” Ribbon snickered. “Give me five before starting again. I’m going to beat your butt this time.” “I don’t get it, I was in position to win. I got robbed…” Darious stared at the screen as the Rattata from before was dancing, it had won the entire battle royal. How did he get outsmarted by the easiest character in the game? Rattata were literally the starting character of the royal game, super fast, but no attack or defensive powers that could match anyone else. It was a character you went to learn the game or just to troll someone. And he lost to one. “You didn’t get robbed you got outplayed. Anyway, who was that?” Halvon asked as he got up to stretch. “The last few games I think that same player has been winning nearly every time. If you ask me who ever that is might be the best at Bangam.” “I call Tauros, there is no way a Rattata player is the best at Bangam. That honor goes to me, myself and I.” Darious had to take a breath, he hated losing like that, falling into a pit fall designed to trap him just long enough for the stage to kill him. It was an embarrassing way to go. “Well might be a new contender. What ever, good games but I think I’ll sit the next few out.” Halvon puts his paws behind his head and lays down. “You think Chip is going to come back in any time soon, if so we could form a pack and see if we can win.” “He’s getting his tailhole plowed into by Meadow.” Darious said casually. “I’m getting hungry.” “Oh?” Halvon questioned. “How would you know that?” “Meadow has been after that tailhole for a while. Plus, I know Chip, I was his first, I busted that tailhole cherry pretty hard.” Darious sips some water, he couldn’t help but snicker. “Busted on that tailhole. Anyway…Meadow has her limits on how much patience she has, and I’m sure when she really wants something, she presses hard for it. But you know what, no matter what this pup was the first to lay claims to that wonderful Zorua. Name’s Darious, kind of a big deal.” “Oh that she does.” Darious saw a cute Sylveon standing near the door into the room. “Few things get in between her and having a good time, I should know from experience.” The Sylveon walks over to them and lays down on a large beanbag. Behind him was Sai… “As for you being a “big deal.” Zephyr smacks his chops. “Hmm I want to see how big it is.” If Darious was the lewdest Pokemon in the room, then Zephyr was the most lewd on the entire island. That comment alone made the Rockruff shiver. How serious was the eon, did he really want to see it…how mon what if he was too small…wait…why was he worried about Zephyr, it was his brother he was interested in. Ya…focus on him…um…fairyeon…cocks…. tailhole…Eevee…. ok got it…Eevee…. “Sai…when did you wake up from your nap?” Darious felt his heart skip a beat from just looking at the handsome fox. From the corner of his eye Darious noticed Halvon pouting, the cat eared Oshawott’s ear twitched and his tail flicked a few few times. “A few minutes ago, I was getting some water and using the bathroom. I see you guys are still playing Pokemon Royal Rumble. Hopefully you are not upsetting my sister too much?” “Ribbon will be fine, she needs to learn to take a L better.” Darious snickered. “Maybe take a D better as well.” “Be nice to my little sister, last thing anyone wants to hear is her complaining about every little thing in the game.” The Sylveon lays on the opposite beanbag. “You want to take my spot Zephyr?” Halvon asked, the Oshawott walked by Darious and Sia on the way out. “I feel like going back to my room.” “Now? We were trying to start our little pack.” Darious had a feeling he knew why Halvon was looking to jet off. “I wanted to stop anyway you know that.” Halvon walks back and kisses Darious between the ears. “Besides you should spend some time with Sai…” Halvon walks out of the room without another word. Darious felt a ping of guilt as he wondered if he should run after Halvon but doesn’t. Instead he feels a brush up against his side as Sai was comforting him. “Hey fluffy butt doesn’t worry about him; you guys have been playing all day. Give him some time and he’ll come around.” “I hope…” Darious wondered if he should worry about Halvon but…Sai was right, maybe he was just tired and needed sometime to himself. They used to be very close but since the holiday party Darious has been spending a lot of his time with Sai. It wasn’t because he didn’t like Halvon, but he also didn’t think of Halvon in a romantic light. Best to try to consult him when they could be alone and figure things out. For now, he had some more trolling to do as he gets the next game ready. The best medicine he could think of right now was beating up on Ribbon, that was always fun. Oh, he can try out his new dance he earned too, “String.” Ribbon Ribbon looked at herself in the mirror, the Vulpix was taking her time before returning outside to deal with Darious. Her fur was extremely beautiful today, she had put extra effort into making sure that she was looking her best, not for Darious…no he was too stupid to understand what looking your best was. No she was doing this for herself, she needed to feel beautiful once more and the only way to ensure that she stayed looking at the top of her game was to constantly groom and take care of her fur. Looking along her left side she noticed the still healing scar that had downed her for the past two weeks. It was still painful to touch and even worst to look at if she didn’t do anything to cover it up. A horrific reminder of her past mistakes. Ribbon was the resurrected soul of a Suicune from long ago named Windy and served in Arceus’s army as one of his lieutenants. From what Ribbon had been told she had been friends with Dynamo even was told that she had been his mentor at one point and their friendship had been deep. But while on a mission to explore the insides of a tunnel connecting Arceus’s army to Giratini’s legion Dynamo turned on Windy attacking and stabbing her in the heart shattering her soul into two separate pieces. It was only through the use of her mother Ruby and their family friend Neoral were they able to save Windy’s fractured soul and merge it with Ruby. It took a long time but after nearly two hundred years of waiting for Windy reborn as a new soul inside of the body of a ice type Vulpix and renamed Ribbon. Though Ribbon was reborn with only half of her soul, as the other half “Windy” was asleep. Once Windy awoke she changed who Ribbon was turning her into something she hated. Ribbon fought against Dynamo when he reappeared two weeks ago at her mother’s holiday party. She merged her half of her soul with Windy transforming her into a Suipix, the combination of her Suicune and Vulpix self. Ribbon gained a lot of power, but it was still not enough to defeat Dynamo who had little trouble defeating her and her mothers. Ribbon felt like she shouldn’t even had fought that fight while Windy was determined to press the attack believing that if they continued to try, they would surely hit home sooner or later. ‘Don’t stop…just keep swinging, he will surely get tired sooner or later.’ ‘Are you sure…because I feel like he’s only getting faster.’ Swing after swing, attack after attack, Ribbon and Windy had combined their strength to Burst transform into a hybrid of their former form a Suicune, mixed it with their current form and they became a Suipix. Ribbon remembered how pointless the fight had become, Dynamo was literally toying with them by the end of it, leading them on an endless assault that had no hope of ending in their favor. He ended the fight by striking them in their side and leaving them for dead in the snow. It was a move by him to both stop their assault and to keep her mothers Ruby and Radiance from trying to chase him down and yes she had two mothers now…joy. Since then Ribbon had tried to block Windy out of her mind, easier said than done, but at the same time Windy hasn’t wanted to talk to Ribbon and has over the past two weeks been mostly silent. Ribbon was thankful for their new arrangement, she went on living a normal life and Windy just didn’t show up. Ribbon found her stupid comments to be annoying…evening if it was amusing sometimes. Windy brought the worst out of her, turning her into some kind of sex fiend that was willing to not once but twice have sex with that mutt. No one should ever lay with their rival, that is unheard of. Even if he was cute sometimes. “You know you can speak up Windy.” Ribbon spoke out loud hoping that her other half would say something. She really didn’t want to talk to her, she was annoying but…she also wanted to make sure that she was ok, maybe she’s can take over for a little bit and let her think of what to do going forward. But there was no response. “Where is she…its not like her to be so quiet.” Ribbon tossed away the thought of Windy abandoning her and instead decided to go back downstairs and hand Darious the big fat “L” he needed in his life. Once she took care of her stupid rival, she’ll take care of Windy, that foolish Vulpix…Suicune whatever needed to be talked to. There was no way she was going to let that free loader sit around and get a pass. Once satisfied of looking at her scar Ribbon headed downstairs to see what everyone was up to, what she found was not very surprising. “Hey little sis.” Sai greeted her as she entered the room. The Eevee was playing Pokemon Battle Royal with Darious while their brother Zephyr payed on a large pillow watching them. Chip and Meadow returned from being outside, Ribbon was able to feel just how cold it was from just being near them. A seemly icy cold aura radiated from them. Chip laid on the ground, the Zorua seemed to favor not sitting on his bottom. “Still feels odd to hear that Sai.” Ribbon spoke. She was used to be the big sister to her brother Fenzura. He was a firepix and was her little brother and oddly at times sister to her, though if you told him that he was a girl he’ll get upset and want to roast your nuts or what ever else he could find. He was such good company though. “You’ll get use to it Ribbon.” Zephyr was holding a crossword puzzle in his ribbons while laying upside down on the pillow. “Sai got use to me calling him “little brother.” “I’m older than you by a few minutes…” Sai mumbled. “We’re twins…with me technically the big brother.” “Maybe, but still doesn’t mean I can’t call you “little brother.” Zephyr teased. “Play your silly little game so I can see you guys rage again, its so cute.” “I don’t rage.” Darious boosted. ‘You will when I get done with you.’ Ribbon thought while sitting down to play. “Oh Chip why don’t you play with them, I’ll root you on.” Meadow nuzzled the Zorua. “Don’t you want to cuddle?” Chip asked while laying down to play, the Zorua didn’t look that concerned for doing much cuddling now. Like the rest of them he wanted to get into the game. “The heat from when you get upset is more than enough to keep me warm…” Meadow giggles. “In more than one way if you know what I mean.” “Sadly I think I know what you mean.” Chip groans. “Lets do this thing. Solos or teams?” “If we see that Rattata again I’m going to body them!” Darious barked. “Not if I get to you first Darious!” Ribbon sat ready to rumble. “I’ll show you who will be giggling after this is over.” Sai spoke while looking at their brother who giggled anyway. “We’ll see…”little brother.” Zephyr winked. The game began and the four Pokémon’s characters were transported to the battle arena with the four of them appearing in random parts of the map. Ribbon looked at the player count to see that it was a full house with about 100 different Pokemon on the map. It was more than large enough to host that many with plenty of space for most to hide or to prepare themselves before finding others. Ribbon smirked as she couldn’t wait to start finding scrubs to knock out once allowed to start fighting. 3…. 2…. 1…… RUMBLE Ribbon was good at surviving the first wave of “scrubs” as she easily takes out the first two opponents, she finds in the forest clearing she had been spawned into. The rules were simple survive and take out those who would try to do you harm. Ribbon easily defeated anyone who got in her way using her experience of the map along with her experience of the game to take out a Bidoof and Sunflora that got in her way. Once done with her first two fights Ribbon directed her attention to gathering berries and orbs to help power herself up. All the while in reality trying to sneak a peak at everyone else but once she tried to do so both Meadow and Zephyr got on her case as they eyeballed her. ‘Really…they are actually trying to moderate us? I bet if I was Chip, they would be all over making sure I can see what everyone else is doing. What ever, I have always been on my own and that will not stop now. The only win Chip is getting today is getting his dick played with by Meadow…which I bet was boring.’ Ribbon rolled her eyes and returned to playing the match as she easily found a large powerup orb allowing for her to survive longer as she gained super armor. Next fight she got into she was sure she would win without needing to use much effort. As the number of opponents shrunk down to about 30 Ribbon saw that her friends were still in the match. Anyone who was in the same “room” together could see one another’s status. It wasn’t meant to give anyone an advantage just to know if your friends were still alive. Sai, Darious and Chip were still alive, but that was all she knew. Looking at the arena and the safe zone she saw that about 50% of it has gone off limits and everyone was being pushed to a waterfall area of the map. Ribbon couldn’t help but smile as that was right by where she was stationed meaning she had a tactical advantage since the fight would be coming to her. Deciding to build her camp around some of the trees near the area Ribbon took to the trees to see over the horizon if anyone was coming. She set up a few traps near the edge of the area and decided to remain hidden until someone came. And come they did… A fireball was thrown at Ribbon’s hiding spot, making her realize her mistake in not making sure that the area she had just come from was empty. Ribbon fell out of her tree taking damage from the fall and she soon quickly realized that she was already down to half of her remaining HP with some of her armor being eaten up from the blast. Ribbon had to quickly escape the fight with a Smoke Ball that she used to reposition herself a bit away from where she just was. The Vulpix looked through her inventory…it was nearly empty. She had spent so much time mocking her position that she failed to remember to gather more supplies to restock herself. “This is not happening…” Ribbon growled. “Oh, shit is that Cyndaquil that likes to play this game into the late hours.” Darious said. Ribbon saw that the Rockruff had entered the area. “You want some help?” “Against the rules.” Chip spoke, the Zorua was pressing a lot of different buttons in the meantime. Ribbon noticed that Chip’s HP was down a little bit but the Zorua seemed to be calm about what ever situation he was in. Sai was nowhere to be seen but Ribbon was guessing he was camping some place. Ribbon had little time to figure much else out as she decided to engage the Cyndaquil who was attacking her with Flamethrower. Ribbon used her shield to block the attack, one of the few items she had left as it absorbed long range attacks and redirected them back at the opponent who took damage equal to what it would have been. Ribbon saw that his HP was almost gone, and he had no shield, easy pickings. “Outplayed.” Ribbon used Ice Beam to try to take the opponent out but missed as he dodged the attack and used Quick Attack to counter her. Ribbon had no choice but to take the hit. “No…NO!” Ribbon growled as she was nearly taken out. She used Quick Attack back to hurt the Cyndaquil knocking him out and just winning the 1v1. She was in bad shape, though lucky for her, her opponent had been worst off after that redirect. “15 left…I can do it…” Ribbon panted as she was becoming emotional. “I just want to win.” “You have to earn your wins, sis.” Sai spoke as the Eevee appeared in the area. The circle had shrunk down to just the waterfall and a nearby clearing. Another 7 Pokemon were knocked out in a short amount of time. Ribbon saw the number of knock outs that Sai had were around 10…but how? “Are you cheating?” “No, I’m just laying traps and leading my opponents into situations that favor me.” Sai smiled at his sister from where he saw in the reality. Ribbon noticed Darious taking out yet another Pokemon leaving only him, Ribbon, Sai, Chip, a Bulbasaur, a Riolu and that a Rattata…. that same little rodent that took them out last time they played. “I’d heal if I was you.” Chip spoke up. The Zorua was in the clearing area, he was about to face off with the Bulbasaur that had appeared. Darious was already fighting Sai, the two little gay boys didn’t seem to have much love for one another in the video game. Ribbon noticed the Riolu staying out of the way, playing it safe but the Rattata seemed to be forcing him into a fight leaving Ribbon a chance to heal up. Which she did as she took a few berries from the loot drop the Cyndaquil had left behind. Ribbon was glad she had done so as just as she finished healing up the Rattata attacked her, the rodent had already finished her fight with her opponent. “This bitch!” Ribbon roared as she took a hard hit on the head knocking off more HP than normal. Ribbon attacked back with Ice Shard hurting her opponent, only to see that she had armored up. Ribbon’s own armor was depleted and counting. “This is the best player in the league.” Sai spoke. “Impossible.” Ribbon tried to counter attack only to be hit by a Super Fang knocking more of her HP down and worst-off leaving Ribbon in a bad state as she was being forced into a corner. Ribbon began so upset that she sets her controller down and walks away leaving her character just standing there. She noticed the Rattata not doing anything more than just staring at her, waiting for the next attack. She wasn’t going to give her the satisfaction of besting her and walks away. Before Ribbon did so she wrote a note to the Rattata player: “Get a fucking life you cum stain. You will not get the satisfaction of beating me now or ever. If we ever fought in reality, I would fucking rape you. Go fuck yourself you damn cheater.” No one will get the satisfaction of beating her ever again, no one, not even some dirty Rattata. She was Ribbon, daughter of Ruby and she wasn’t going to take any more L’s ever again.
