10:46 PM... Crimson Suchiru, an everyday nerdy, average 17 year old Honedge stumbled onto his dorm room couch. He had become fatigued with every inch of energy drained from his sword body from working at Pokettomonsuta College in Seikatsu: a region that resided far from Kalos. Crimson had been taking visual studies including studies of Mega Evolution and Primal Reversion. Pokettomonsuta College was a rather large college that was rather peculiar as it's many students were Pokemon themselves. Crimson looked up at the ceiling to procrastinate since he had nothing better to do and was about to drift off to sleep. "Hey Crimson, are you in there?" A feminine voice accompanied by knocking was heard behind the door. Crimson used up the last bit of energy he had to get up and opened the door. He met face to face with a 18 year old female Glaceon wearing a short sleeve shirt and short denim shorts that reached halfway among her thighs. The Glaceon was called Alyssa and was more or less the only friend that Crimson had, they had met and became friends ever since Crimson first signed in to the college. "Alyssa?! What are you doing here?! This is the men's dorm! If anyone sees you here, you'll be answering to the principal!" Crimson exclaimed in a panicked tone. A common rule in college was what there were two dorms that were assigned only to students of the specific gender. Entering a dorm of the opposite gender was against college ground rules and was punishable by the principal himself. Alyssa would sometimes break several college rules, but she was in no means a bad girl. She had never actually gone into the boys dorm before so there must've been a good reason for her unexpected entry. "I know Crimson, I know! Just... hear me out, okay?" Alyssa responded double quick time. "I just really need to your restroom, please! The ones in our dorm are in maintenance!" Alyssa quickly explained, she was starting to sound desperate. Crimson suddenly remembered that it was that 'time of year' for most of the females and stood aside as he watched Alyssa speed in to his bathroom and did what most girls do in their 'time'. With that, Crimson placed his one tassel hand on where his hip would be and waited for the Glaceon to finish up. *The Next Day...* Crimson trudged along the dirt path to the main college building, only taking notice of several other students. Since Alyssa was his only friend, Crimson wasn't very popular. In truth he was still somewhat a freshman as he had started college only 6 months ago, that was when he first met Alyssa. Crimson soon found himself at his locker to prepare for class when he heard a faint shout several metres away from where he standing. He turned to see a Nincada lying on his back on the college floor, he was staring at a group of Pokemon in paralysed fear. The group were several Pokemon which consisted of a Zangoose, Zoroark, Meowstic, Braixen and their leader; A Houndoom (All female). The group was very infamous in college for being the biggest bullies in the entire campus. Their aggresive abuse was never noticed by any staff member, mainly because every other student was too afraid to report them of their behaviour, should they recieve a brutal beating from them. The Houndoom was called Eliza and was the toughest and most fearsome of the bullies. She grappled the Nincada by his coat and threatened him in a rancid deathly tone. "And if you ever decide to scratch my arm again, I'll rip your god damn wings off and starve you in the storage room!" The Nincada grew the courage to finally speak. "I-It was an accident! I only brushed you on the arm! I swear!" "DON'T FUCKING TALK UNTIL I'M FINISHED!!" Eliza retorted angrily, causing the Nincada's face to be covered in spit. "Shit! Eliza!" The Meowstic, Mandy retracted Eliza's attention and pointed to the approaching Marine Biology teacher, a Suicune addressed as Mrs. Aurora who looked like she was in her 20's. The Houndoom quickly retracted her grip of the Nincada and stood in an innocent formal position with her posse following along. "Is there a problem Eliza? I heard shouting." Mrs. Aurora asked the group. "Umm... Well--" The Nincada was about to blurt out what happened when the Zangoose named Rose suddenly cut him off and pretended to help him up. "He-he well... You see, this poor little guy here slipped on a rotten persism berry that some heartless soul discarded on the floor! So the shouting you were hearing was his panicked screams." Lied the Zangoose with a sheepish grin on her face. "Umm... Well... Carry on then." Mrs. Aurora continued as she slowly walked off in confusion until she saw the Ghost/Steel type. "Oh hello Crimson! You have Primal Reversion studies today, right?" Mrs. Aurora greeted the Sword Pokemon politely. "Yes, Miss. How are things with principal Zygarde?" Crimson continued the conversation. "Oh he's doing okay, I'm glad you asked." "Alright Mrs. Aurora, I'll see you later." Crimson finished his talk with the Suicune and watched as she gave him a friendly smile and headed to her classroom. Crimson's point of view turned to reveal that the Nincada had more or less fled the situation, the group of bullies were glaring at him in disgust. "Took you long enough to show your ghastly mug here." The Braixen, Flare said in a stuck up bratty voice. "I could say the same thing to you, Flare." Crimson responded smugly, he was strangely the only one who was not afraid of the group standing before him. "Don't get funny with us, smart ass." The Zoroark, Zara butted in. "Just remember that this is our turf, and a stupid little carving knife like you isn't going to step us down from it. You get off our backs, and we'll get off your back." Eliza blurted out at the ghostly sword and signalled at her posse to make haste for their class. Crimson returned his focus on his locker and prepared for his sessions. *3 Hours Later, Lunch Hour* ... Crimson took a bite of his Heatran-grilled sausage biscuit when he heard a familiar voice and looked up to see his Glaceon friend walk up to him. "Hey Crimson! I just want to thank you again for letting me use your bathroom, I don't know what I would've done if you weren't here." "It's no problem Alyssa, that's what friends are for." Crimson responded, a conversation began between the two. Alyssa: "So... Did she do it to someone again?" Crimson: "Who, Eliza?" Alyssa: "Yeah, that Houndoom." Crimson: "Yeah, she was at it again. It was a Nincada this time, I think he said that he accidentally brushed her on the arm. Mrs. Aurora appeared and they pretended to help him. Mrs. Aurora didn't bat an eyelid at all." Alyssa: "Hmph... That's just like her, always getting pissy at someone for a little mistake and then trying to cover it up when things start to go awry for her." Crimson: "No kidding. You can't help but feel bad for the unlucky ones. So did you want me for anything else?" Alyssa: "Oh! Thank you for reminding me. I'll be running a few laps outside in the college trackfield on gymnastics before the end of today and I was wondering if you could come over and root for me there. I would love some motivation." Crimson: "Well luckily, I don't really have to do anything during then so I'll be there." Alyssa: "Aw thanks, buddy!" Alyssa wrapped the Honedge into a sweet, warm hug which in turn made him blush a deep red. Alyssa retracted her arms and ran off, waving goodbye to Crimson. Crimson usually thought of Alyssa as a little too carefree, but she was a nice Glaceon to hang out with. The steel ghost sat back down and focused back on his food. *2 Hours and 30 Minutes Pass, PokettoMonsuta College Trackfield* The class of girl students were warming up on the grass for the laps with a little bit of enthusiasm from their mentor, a female Blaziken named Ms. Blaze who donned tight navy blue shorts and a short sleeve white shirt that revealed her abdomen. Crimson arrived at the trackfield crowd seats and sat down, he looked around until he recognised the body of light blue fur and turquoise tassels. That was when Ms. Blaze caught the girls' attention. "Alright girls, I think you all are prepared to take your laps. One girl at a time will speed through the track in 3 laps and will recieve their record time. Does everyone understand?" Ms. Blaze spoke out. The group of females nodded in unison and were prepared to run. The first was a Zorua who prepared her stance and ran so fast at the sound of the bullet, even Deoxys himself would be stunned. Several minutes passed before Alyssa entered the scene, she turned to see Crimson cheering her on, making her more eager. Alyssa prepared her stance and waited the shot. ... ... ... The gun went with a bang and Alyssa made a quick headstart. After one lap, several beads of sweat trailed down her face as the combination of her high adrenalin and Crimson continuing to cheer her on pushed her forward and forward through the track. The Glaceon was now one lap away from setting her record as her eyes locked straight forward and her legs pulsated with speed. In a matter of seconds, Alyssa reached the finish line and heard the faint beep of a stopwatch. She put her hands on her knees and panted harder than an Mightyena in heat. Just then, Ms. Blaze walked up to her with an impressed smile. "Well Alyssa, You really pushed through this time, It's like you were never going to stop running! Please don't cease to amaze me!" Alyssa looked up the Blaziken and gave her a proud smile with the rest of the female class applauding her great efforts. *1 Hour Later, End of College day* "You really outdid yourself there Alyssa, I've never seen Ms. Blaze so impressed like that!" Crimson praised Alyssa who was still a little fatigued and was waiting for her pulse to reset to normal. They were both sitting on a beach in a secluded area outside the college building, Alyssa curled a gleaming smile at her friend and took a few more breathing excercises when she felt a little sharp pain. "Ow..." Crimson quickly turned to see the Glaceon holding her leg and clenching her teeth. "Alyssa, are you alright?" Crimson asked with a little bit of worry in his voice. "Yeah, I'm okay. I just need to take these off for a bit. My feet are tired and a little sore." The ice type reassured Crimson who watched as she placed her legs on the bench and untied the laces. She removed the shoes and set them aside, her socks were rather damp and ragged almost as if they hadn't been washed for days, but she didn't care about that and pulled them off. Her feet were a navy blue and ended past her ankles in a diamond shape much like her hands, they were visibly a sore red and several beads of sweat trailed down them. A scent invaded the atmosphere and was strong enough to even make Arceus himself pass out. "Umm... Crimson?" Alyssa started, turning her head at the sword who looked back in response. "Yes?" "You wouldn't mind helping out a friend?" Alyssa asked sweetly, Crimson catched on with what she needed. She was asking him to give her a footrub to ease the pain, but the one time in his life... Crimson couldn't. For whatever reason, he couldn't say yes. "S-Sorry Alyssa, but- I... I can't... I simply can't..." Crimson nervously responded, he didn't want anyone let alone his only friend to know... "Pleeeeeeeeease?" Alyssa started to beg as she tilted her head and gave Crimson the 'Sad Puppy Eyes'. Unfortunately this was her best weapon that always worked in convincing Crimson to agree with whatever she was thinking. The Honedge tried to ignore the look that the Glaceon was giving him, but was close to giving up when he started to hear her pleading whimpers. After trying not to take any notice of the Glaceon's begging for as long as possible, he reluctantly sighed and sat up on the beach. Alyssa smiled mischieveously as she noticed that she had won again. 'How the hell does that even work?!' was the only thing that ran through Crimson's mind as he wrapped his fingers onto Alyssa soles and started massaging. He felt the trails of sweat in between his fingers as he worked them around and under Alyssa's toes. He hear a slight sigh of relief from the Glaceon who was loving the nice tender rubs the sword was giving her. Crimson continued his massage work for several minutes and started to feel rather embarassed even though they were in a secluded area where nobody would see them for miles. Crimson still felt the soft, silky soles of his friend when his hand started to turn damp and moist with it being a cloth tassel and all. However, Crimson soon started to feel a little uneasy as if something was circulating in his body like he felt something stiffen at the waist. His massaging speed started to decrease when he slowly looked down and hoped it wasn't what he think it was. It was real, Crimson nearly panicked as he saw a dent at the waist of his sheath. It was clear as day of what the thought it was. "Crimson... What is that?" Alyssa had a confused look on her face and was pointing at the dent. Crimson was terrified for real this time, how was he able to stop something like this from happening? He suddenly let go of the Glaceon's foot and backed away, deep fear and shame could be seen on his face. What the hell was he thinking?! "Alyssa... I'm... I'm so sorry!" The Honedge exclamied in a disheartened tone and ran away. Alyssa was confused even more and tried to call for her friend to come back. "Crimson wait! What's wrong?!" Crimson did not respond to that question and continued to run. ... ... ... It was several minutes into sunset when Crimson barged through his dorm room door and slammed it shut in panic. He started to insult himself for the mistake. 'Grrr Crimson, you fucking idiot! Why the hell did you do that?! She's your friend, why would you think of her like that?!' Crimson soon calmed down and collapsed onto the floor. For as long as he can remember, he had always been keeping it a secret from everyone and Alyssa. If she were to find out... then what would she think of him? Crimson dreaded for the worse and hoped to Arceus that noone would ever know... Noone would ever know... ...of his 'Foot Fetish'... End of Chapter 1...
