Okeydokey everyone, it's my first fic! I don't think it'll be bad, since I've been practicing writing for years, this is just my first time publishing it to people I don't know. It's Yaoi, it's M rated and it's not gonna suck! (hopefully). I have to warn you, there will be violence, cursing and high sexual content. If you don't like yaoi or pokemon/pokemon than please don't read this and complain to me about how sick it is, I don't have time for the likes of you!
I don't own Pokemon, cause if I did there be lots of Yaoi goodness. ;)
An Espeon dipped a single, dainty paw into the water, shuddering from its icey sting. Though the water sent sharp needles through his body, he continued into the freezing lake, stepping over the sharp, frozen grasses. He turned his nose to the gray sky, taking a few seconds to get used to the icey water before continuing in. The lavender canine Pokemon waded until the water reached his belly, gasping at the sharp feelings in his legs and paws. Though it was somewhat difficult, it would help numb the pain of the various bruises and wounds he had on his body.
The Espeon's name was Sirius, named after the brightest star in the night sky. However, despite his name he did not shine and sparkle the way any healthy, happy Espeon did. No, Sirius had a very dull glow. While most young Espeon had an air to rival that of a powerful Lucario, Sirius's aura was weakened and still dwindling. Ever since the day he was stripped of his happiness, his life's energy seemed to become fainter by the day until it was deemed as nearly non-existent.
"It's time to go Sirius. The hunt's going to start in a few minutes." A soft, soothing voice called from behind him. It was that of his best friend, Angel.
"Hello, Angel." Sirius said running onto the muddy bank of the lake to meet the young female, his paws sunk slightly with each step. Angel was worse off than he was. Her golden coat was dull in coloration, her glowing red eyes had grown dim a long time ago. She was missing one of her elegant nine tails, the signature of her species the Ninetails. She'd lost it some time ago defending herself against an Arcanine. Angel had been able to fight the powerful male off, but he'd managed to take her tail with him.
"Hurry up, you know how Demon gets when where late." She said jerking her head as a signal to leave. Sirius sighed and fallowed his friend into the dark, charred forest. Their clan, The Constellation was at war with another clan, the Liondogs. Fire was a common and lethal weapon used in the war, thus causing the land to always be burnt and charred. As the two youngsters walked over the burnt debris, many haunting memories found there way into Sirius's mind. It was here where the Houndoom clan had invaded his pack nearly twelve years ago. He cringed as he remembered that dark, fateful day.
"Sirius, come here please!" A frustrated ice type Pokemon known as Glaceon growled. Sirius responded by giggling and bounding down the hill, his tiny un-evolved paws stumbling on the way down.
"This isn't funny, it's time for bed!" She called to the small Eevee.
"Catch me mother!" He called dashing joyfully through the thick grasses. His mother sighed in frustration, glancing over at her other six pups whom where already yawning and stumbling over, obviously ready for bed.
"Come on, Sirius! Your brothers and sisters are tired, please come back up here!"
"Catch me first!" He squealed in delight. The Glaceon opened her mouth to shout to the young pup when someone placed a paw on her shoulder.
"I'll get him, Winter." A calm masculine voice said. It was her mate Flash. Flash was an good father and an excellent leader to the pack. His species, Manetric, was very good at defending territory with there amazing speed and the ability to manipulate electricity.
"Thank you." She said gratefully. Winter guided her other drowsy pups underground to their den as her mate worked with the hyperactive Sirius.
"Come on, Sirius. It's time for bed now." Flash said in a stern voice. Sirius wagged his bushy tail and darted father down the hill. Flash sighed.
"Ok then, I'll just have to catch you." He called darting down the hill with amazing speed. Flash used his excellent speed and agility to plow through the thick grass. Flash seemed to be traveling at the speed of light, as he was only a faint blur in the grass. He used his advanced hunting skills to corner the young pup.
"I've got you now, my little prey." He growled snatching the Eevee up with his jaws and slinging him onto the ground. He then proceeded to cover the giggling pup with an onslaught of playful, loving licks.
"Come on now, that's enough play. I caught you, now run up to the den. Your mother's getting worried." He said nudging the pup towards the den. The pup procceded to run towards the den site as he was told. Sirius giggled, only glancing behind him to see if his father was close behind. However, when he looked his father was nowhere to be seen.
"Father, I thought you said no more play? Ok, maybe one round of hide and seek wouldn't hurt!" He said bounding back down the hill. Sirius crept close to the ground as his father had taught him to do on a hunt. He snuck behind a tall, dark rock before leaping out.
"Gotcha!" He cried, however no one was there. The tiny brown pup looked around, puzzled. They where at the end of the Constalation's den site. It wasn't like his father to leave it at such a late hour. Sirius continued down the hill, ducked down in the thick grasses. His tiny body remained completely concealed. Under the cover of the grass, however, there was no way of telling where he was going. His best bet was to fallow the light, as if he where in an actual tunnel.
"I'm gonna get you good, father." He snickered creeping toward the parting in the grass. Sirius charged out with a tiny battle cry. He was expecting to catch his father crouching in the grasses, but what he saw shocked and horrified him.
"F-father?" He squeaked trembling as his eyes fell on the pitiful figure. Flash's limbs where just barley attached to his torn, bloody body and they dangled wildly like the tentacles of a badly injured tentacruel.
"Sirius… Sirius get out of here." The dying electric type managed gasp. The tiny Eevee trembled.
"Father." Was all he managed to say. Tears formed in his large eyes as he watched the blood flow from his father's broken body. His powerful alpha had never looked so pathetic and fearful. The tiny Pokemon gasped as ominous shadows surrounded him. A growl erupted from behind him as an enormous Houndoom leapt out and seized Flash by the throat, sending blood spewing every which way. The electric Pokemon let out a strangled cry as another Houndoom sank it's fangs into his side.
"Go back to the den!" He cried with a gurgling scream, coughing up quite alot of blood. The frightened pup darted through the grasses away from the bloody scene. He could still here the flesh being torn from his father's bones. The sickening sound sent chills up his tiny spine. He made his way up to the den stumbling inside.
"Mother, they're going to kill father!" He screamed in a panic. His siblings jumped up from there resting place in shock. The dainty ice type tried to calm her son, but there was fear in her own voice.
"Who? Who's going to kill him?"
"The devil dogs. They're tearing him up like a kill mother! They're hunting him!" He said cried, tears streaming from his large eyes. The pup struggled to catch his breath, but he was to frgihtened to do so. Winter wasted no time. She darted to the den entrance.
"Stay here, children." She called before speeding outside. Winter summoned the rest of her pack for the fight, leaving her pups underground. They huddled together, praying to Arceus that things would go ok.
The ominous howls echoed through the air along with the dying cries of the pack. There'd be a blast of fire, fallowed by the cries of Pokemon being burned alive. The scent of burning flesh was unberably strong. The pups wondered what was happening to their fellow pups, their friends. They imagined them left underground, afraid and cowering just as they where now. It was very possbile that some of their freinds could have become so frightened that they dash into the battle to be with their parents. This was a dangerous and often suicidal act that many pups often fell prey to, however Sirius and his siblings where to smart for this.
When the fighting stopped, the frightened pups lifted their heads in an attempt to view the battlegrounds, but there was someone blocking their way. It was their pack elder Alexia and she was carrying a frightened Vulpix in her mouth. Alexia was badly wounded, her leg had been torn directly from the socket and blood still leaked from the wound.
"Mother Alexia. Are you alright?" He asked with fear. The nine tailed fox licked the pup to comfort him, but there was sorrow in her eyes.
"We… we where forced to surrender young pup. Many of the pack where lost… I'm afraid this is only the beginning." She said sadly licking the Vulpix she had brought with her. Sirius recognized her as Angel.
"Angel, I can't believe it! You're okay!" The Vulpix gave the Eevee a sad glance.
"My brother… we couldn't find him among the other bodies or at the den. Is he dead, Sirius?" She asked.
"I…" He began. He didn't know the anwser to her question for sure, but he had a good guess. It was painful to answr the young vixen, but she needed to know the truth.
"I'm sorry to say, Angel, but I think he's gone…"
"What about our mother!? Did you find her alive?" One of the other Eevee pups asked, dreading the answer. Alexia looked painfully at the youth's frightened face, she didn't want to be the one to tell her the bad news, but she was the only one who could.
"I'm sorry, children, but I'm afraid that your mother, our beloved alpha… is among the many that have died today…"
Sirius felt his eyes well up with tears. His mother, his father and one of his best friends, Angel's brother had been lost in the fight. Life now was so difficult without his parents in charge of the pack. The new pack leader was notorious for starting wars with other clans, throwing away the lives of many every day. The burnt forest was where most came to mourn, and he and Angel did that often.
"Sirius… you know they never did recover his body. I wish I had the chance to put him to rest. If only I could find his bones at least, then I'd at least be able to say good-bye properly." His female companion said softly. Sirius had sympathy for the vixen, but he could never feel the same pain she did. Sirius was left with his siblings while Angel only had her grandmother who was standing on her final legs.
"I know, Angel. I can't say I know how you feel, but I can say I pity you." Sirius said looking up at the taller female.
"I know you do… I almost pity myself, but that would be sort of whiney so I don't." She said walking towards the clan's den site. Even here was cold and unwelcoming, and this had once been there warm, happy home. Blood remained stained on rocks from the fight many years ago. Only the weather's wear could remove it from site.
"Where were you!?" An obnoxious voice growled from above. A Houndoom leapt in front of the two canine Pokemon, giving an irritated snort. The dominant circled the two in an attempt to intimidate them, but after all he's seen, there wasn't many things that could frighten Sirius.
"I was out at the lake, Demon. Angel came and got me. I take full responsibility for this."
"I'll bet you do." Sirius glanced up at the Houndoom. Though he wasn't afraid, he was much to weak to fight the Houndoom, and on top of that he had a weakness against his dark type. It'd be over before it even started.
Demon scoffed, the dark type Pokemon was extreamly arrogant and bossy. More than anything, he was a selfless Pokemon, commiting acts of cruelty to everyone, large and small. The angry Houndoom stormed through the rest of the pack, bumping into Alexia, the clans elder.
"Out of my way, you old wretch!" He growled knocking the older female to the ground. Angel was at her grandmothers side to help her, for she couldn't list herself easily with the loss of her leg.
The other six Eevee siblings, who had now evolved gathered around Sirius in concern. They hadn't seen what he'd done wrong, but they where concerned about his saftey anyway.
"You shouldn't get into any more trouble with Demon, Sirius. It could be the final straw." Tina, Sirius's older sister scolded. The young Vaporeon had taken over her mother position after the bloody surrender of the clan. Though she was the most optimistic of the group, she was a bit clingy and protective of her younger siblings.
"Whatever," Sirius said turning his back on his older sister. He wasn't in the mood for talking at this very moment. Tina gave a warm smile.
"I know you don't feel well, Sirius, but we all have to cope with the situation for now. Things will get better though. I can feel it in my tailfin!"
"You've been saying that since the day you evolved! Nothing has gotten any better!"
"You may not think so, but the war between our clan and the clan of Arcanine is coming to a close. We'll never see a war as harsh as that ever again, since that's the only group of Arcanine around these parts, and best of all the food shortage is ending as well. We have to take this one step at a time?" She said wandering off to join the rest of the pack. The hunt was starting soon, and Sirius thought it was best if he just joined the hunt in without any further ado.
"Hey, Sirius!?" A younger, yet equally obnoxious voice growled from behind. Sirius turned around to see another dark type, Fang the Mighteyana behind him. The dark furred male strutted over towards the younger male, his cocky air could be felt even at a distance.
"So, I see you and Angel came back together."
"Yeah, we do that a lot." Sirius said in irritation. He didn't like Fang, actually he despised the obnoxious wolf Pokemon, but he insisted on talking to him anyway.
"So, how'd it go?"
"How'd what go?" He hissed, his voice dripping with hatred.
"Well, did you mount the bitch or not?" He said with ease. He was so used to discussing the subject that it was not taboo to him in any way, however to the younger male this conversation was simply unacceptable.
"Did I what!?" The purple canine yelled. His outburst turned many heads, but they averted their gazes when Fang gave them an angry scowl. The black wolf turned back to Sirius.
"You heard me, did you mount her?"
"I most certainly did not! I don't like Angel like that, she's a friend!" The older canine shook his head.
"What is the matter with you, boy! When are girls going to be more than just friends to you!" Sirius pondered this for a second. It was true that he had never had feelings for a girl. He did love Angel but their love was more of a sibling's love than anything intimate. The tiny canine lifted a paw from the ground, his eyes narrowed.
"I'll choose my timing, but for now it's none of your business!" He said trotting towards the rest of the pack. He noticed Demon eyeing him suspiciously, but did not think much of it. Demon had never been very found of him for many reasons. Ever since the day he had captured the clan he'd been aggressive and ruthless with Sirius. It wasn't like the tiny, cat like canine would be of any threat to him. He was much to weak to rival the dominant, but Demon continued his display of dominance anyway.
"Sirius, before the hunt, can I have a word with you?" Demon said in a low voice, summoning the pink canine to fallow him back to his den. Sirius flicked his forked tail in curiosity; it wasn't like his alpha to want to talk to him in private. He walked quickly behind his dominant. It was an odd situation; Demon had never stopped a hunt for something before, it had to be extremely urgent. When Sirius had finally made it back to the den, Demon turned to face him. The look on his face was screaming in hatred.
"Sirius, are you attracted to… male Pokemon?"
