#3 of Canine Pokemon Tamer Series

Yeah, this is the end of the CPT series for the most part. My mate provided the demonic Zoroark, and of course my muses went to the dark side on this one. I hope you enjoy your nightmares, and I don't own Pokemon, though I do use them to fuel the nightmares of others.


Seeing her pups running across the field was something Luna Kyrian never thought she would see. When they were born, the twin Entei females were so sickly that even Wisdom, the Xatu and healer of the Rei-Kai Mansion believed they would die. Luna had been fine during her pregnancy, but intense stress at losing yet another member of her family, her grandfather, Anova, had nearly cost the lives of her litter. Even now, the thought of his body mangled and bleeding so similarly to that of her mother's leaves her feeling faint. As her mate, Judge walks up beside her, she sighs deeply, caught up in the moment of watching her young daughters rolling and tumbling over each other in the yard behind their house. Rising to her feet, the Suicune hybrid sighs. She runs one paw like hand through her fur, her white fur similar to that of other "shiny" Suicune, but where they are icy blue, with blue manes; her body is pale white with blue markings and a flowing black mane. Her mother had given her the name Luna, because she was often seen howling at the moon as a pup, her siblings, Blitz and Mariko had been given away when they were all just pups.

Luna smiles, a rare occurrence these days after her mother and grandfather were murdered, as her daughters run up to her, both still looking like miniature versions of their dad. Luna picks up Sabelle, the larger of the two pups and tickles her belly, earning a cry of laughter from the little pup. Mirage, the smaller of the two paws at her mother's legs trying to capture her tails as the Suicune hybrid plays with them. Judge nuzzles Mirage, the pup rolling onto her back and laughing as her father licks her fur.

"They're getting to be quite a handful aren't they, Luna?" He casually states, earning insulted gasps from his young daughters as they turn their noses up at him jokingly. Luna holds Sabelle close, defensively glaring at Judge with a smile plastered on her face.

"Not at all, Judge, I wanted pups, and I'm lucky to have such cute twins, besides, Mama would be proud of how strong these two have gotten." Luna whispers, tears threatening to fall from her eyes. Sabelle notices the look in her mother's eye and gently licks her cheek with a soft pink tongue. Luna smiles at her daughter and hugs her tightly. Judge picks Mirage up in his jaws and carries her towards the mansion for her lesson in human languages. Faero, the elderly Mewtwo is in charge of training the pups to speak as humans and understand both human and Pokémon language. Luna cuddles her daughter close for a few more minutes before deciding to head inside. During the display of affection, she is aware of the feeling plaguing her for the last few months ever since her mother was killed; she's being watched by something or someone.

Ducking into the bushes a Buneary scurries out of sight, only the malicious glare on its face a clue as to the true nature of this Pokémon. As it runs, a shimmering passes over its body and reveals it to be a Zoroark hybrid, dressed in bloodstained, ragged looking jeans. This creature is Nameless, the destructive force responsible for thousands of hybrid deaths over the course of his existence and the murderer that eliminated both Anova and Alyria. Running a clawed hand through his red hair, Nameless smirks, his fangs visible as he thinks about the twin Entei girls. Nameless wasn't originally known for his cruelty, in fact, it wasn't until he reached

breeding age that he became malicious. He had fallen in love with a Vulpix, but upon her evolution into a Ninetails, he found she had mated her trainer and bred with him. Nameless snapped in that moment and vowed death to all hybrids. He killed her trainer, and her litter, when she lay before him, broken, bleeding, and begging for death, he decided he'd rather have her live with guilt, and took off to begin hunting. The words he threw in her face that day haunting his dreams.

"A human loving a Pokémon? Disgusting, the very idea is absolutely absurd. They should be wiped out, all of them. Filthy half-breeds, a stain upon civilization. I won't rest until all of you are dead." Nameless spat as he tore through everything she loved. His hatred drives his every move, including his current hunt. Every day and each night, Nameless creeps to the Rei-Kai Mansion and watches the occupants, taking note of their every move, their every action, and just watches for the moment of weakness when he will slice them into ribbons.

Luna and Judge tuck their pups into bed and retire to their rooms, sighing deeply as they cuddle into each other's arms. The pair seems sedated by parenthood, but Luna still feels uneasy at night. Judge licks her cheek, softly and slowly calming her until she drifts off to sleep. He never sleeps at night anymore, instead spending hours walking through the halls of the mansion, usually finding sleep in the greenhouse room, lying next to the shrine containing his son's body. The Suicune male had died shortly after birth, and while his sickly sisters had survived, he had breathed his last and been buried by his father and grandfather. His name was etched into the glass case his remains were contained in, the glass created by the males melting rock with their power. Judge's son, Orion, would lie within this glass forever, peacefully waiting to see his family again.

Nameless had watched as Orion was encased in the glass shrine, he had imagined how the funeral would look if he had killed the boy, and his body betrayed him. He grew hard thinking of death, especially causing it, and in doing so; he searched for a living being to destroy in order to satisfy his urges. He never allowed a being he mated to breathe after he raped it, unless the creature bear a litter and make him a traitor to his cause, but he enjoyed killing it more than he enjoyed the mating act itself. He would tear out organs, eat hearts, and bleed dry the Pokémon he took to bed and their only crime was existing and being in his path at a bad time.

This time, his victim was an Eevee pup. He caught her and quickly slashed her throat, not deep enough to kill, but certainly deep enough to prevent screams. He unzipped his jeans and thrust his cock into her depths, not caring if she was far too small to take somebody his size. She bled more than usual, because she was so young, not only a virgin, but barely old enough to leave the den, and Nameless released himself within her. His claws ripped fur, and his teeth tore flesh, but still he wanted more. He licked her wounds as she died, the warm blood pouring into his mouth until her heart ceased to beat, then he bit into that too. His eyes turned red with lust as he bit into her warm flesh, the pup so very tiny compared to him as he ripped her apart. He

behaved as though it was his birthday, and she his favorite present, and his cake, all wrapped in one.

Luna would drive him mad, with how many crimes against his cause she had committed.

"Then again," he thought to himself, grinning wickedly as he tossed the pup's corpse aside like a broken doll, "Perhaps that is why it is called Lunacy." Nameless screeches in laughter as he runs back to his den, gleefully singing about killing those around his favorite toy.

Luna wakes as the sun rises, to the sound of her daughters howling with hunger. She gets out of bed, noting the continued absence of her beloved mate and walks into the nursery to feed them. As her pups nibble on the Pecha berries she hands them, Luna is dragged into thought about how the sweet berries were her mother's favorite and whether or not they should alert Officer Jenny to the spree of murders in the area. Luna decides to remain silent for now. As she begins her usual routine, she remembers that the orchard should be ready for harvesting by now and heads out with a basket to collect the numerous berries from the trees.

Judge wakes from his sleep, realizing too late that he slept well into the morning and that Luna would notice his absence from their bed. He sees her in the yard through the green tinted windows and remembers the trees are ripe with berries. He elects to join her and exits the greenhouse with his own basket, sighing and ready to face his mate's wrath.

Luna notices her mate walking into the berry orchard and ignores him, still upset that he continually sneaks out of the room at night to go mope at their son's grave. She first noticed it weeks after his death, when she would wake alone and afraid after nightmares of her son dying in various ways. Recently, after Anova's murder, she's dreamed Orion dying in the same way, and woke up sweating and wanting to scream before remembering she was safe in the house. Judge doesn't know about the dreams since she didn't want to burden him with guilt.

Judge knows he's being ignored, and tail hanging low, accepts it. The pair picks berries for several minutes in silence, Luna and Judge picking trees on opposite sides for fear of having to speak, tension thick enough that it's almost visible, before Luna gets the feeling of being watched. She and her mate both fail to notice the Fearow flying overhead, the malicious look in its eyes once more betraying it as Nameless. He observes the pair from the sky, imagining himself swooping down and mauling them viciously, saliva pooling in his beak as he imagines the act before landing in the woods. His body morphs back and he can hear Pokémon, now well aware of him, running for cover for fear of them being turned into his sadistic fantasy. Nameless notes the absence of life as he lands and sighs, his voice coming out raspy with thirst for blood.

"Come on, Pokémon, surely I'm not all THAT bad. Wait, I guess I am. Heh heh. Oh well, looks like I'll have to hunt to fill my needs now. Fine by me." Nameless snarls as he lunges at a slow-moving Bellsprout, the Pokémon gasping its name before a snarl from Nameless silences it.

"If you bite me, I will take your life without any mercy and you will die screaming." Nameless snaps as he unzips his jeans and pulls out his rapidly hardening cock. The Bellsprout struggles in his grasp, a tear falling from its eye as Nameless shoves his cock into the Pokémon's mouth. The Bellsprout sucks the invading organ, knowing if it bites that Nameless will carry out its death until the final blow seems to be a blessing, and knowing either way it will die. Nameless thrusts into the Pokémon's mouth mercilessly, enjoying the treatment he's given by the dual grass/poison type. Bellsprout sucks off the murderous hybrid, the entire time commenting with its mind that it hopes the toxic saliva mutilates Nameless' dick with horrible pain.

Nameless finally releases, digging his claws through the Bellsprout's head. Nameless smiles and licks his claws, enjoying the fruity taste of the green Bellsprout blood. Tucking his limp cock back into his jeans, Nameless kicks the shredded plant Pokémon back into the bushes and walks away to take up his nightly task of stalking Luna.

As Nameless runs across the grass he recalls several memories of his past.

"Mother, why are you leaving me?" A tiny Zorua kit whimpers from his den as a large female prepares to abandon the nest.

"Because all Zorua kits are left to fend for themselves, you must be strong if you wish to survive. You are part human, Little One. You are more than capable of taking care of yourself." The female speaks softly as she leaves the den. The Zorua kit thinks she's joking and so he remains in the den for two weeks, drinking nothing but plant dew and eating nothing at all. He hears footsteps as he walks by and sees a flash of fur through the den opening, racing out he clings to the being and cries out.

"Mother! You're back!" The furry shape growls at him, showing she is not his mother, but a young Espeon female.

"Get your filthy hands off me, hybrid. I am clearly not your whore mother, and am appalled that you dared to approach me and confuse me with her." She hisses, promptly firing a psybeam at the young kit. He dodges, but the waves still hurt him and he limps back into his den.

For the next ten years, the Zorua kit lives life as an outcast, begging passing trainers to capture him, each and every one either kicking at him to leave, throwing food and running away, or flinging stones at him. He's rejected by Pokémon too, the wild females laughing at him during breeding season, tempting him only to deny his advances, the males treating him as a threat and chasing him away. Even trainer Pokémon attack him for fun.

Running away from yet another attack, the Zorua hybrid falls down a steep hill, rolling towards the bottom before hitting something soft. He can smell blood and so he quickly gets to his feet, growling at the intruder. A young Vulpix female is standing there on an injured leg.

"Please don't hurt me!" She whimpers, trying to move away, but only falling when she puts weight on her wounded limb.

"You think I'll hurt you? I should be saying that to you. After all, I'm just a disgusting hybrid." The Zorua hisses as he walks away. The Vulpix follows him, not knowing what else to do.

"I don't think you're disgusting. My name's Jeovi, I used to be owned by a trainer, but I was released when he decided I wasn't worth keeping. Do you have a name?" She asks softly earning a smile from the young hybrid.

"No. My mother abandoned me years ago. I'm unworthy of a name." He sighs softly as he continues back to his den. The Vulpix follows him, stopping to look at the crudely formed den at the base of a tree.

"So this is where you live?" Jeovi asks, wondering if the hybrid will allow her inside.

"Pretty much. Why don't you come in, your leg will get infected if you remain out there. Of course, that's only if you can bear to be close to filth like me long enough for me to fix your leg." The hybrid asks, wanting to be with somebody for the first time since his mother abandoned him.

Nameless races towards Luna's window, his fangs reflecting moonlight in a nightmarish gleam. He watches as she puts her twin pups into their beds and as Judge systematically wakes once she's asleep, he imagines the similarities between the days he spent as a kit with Jeovi, and Luna living with Judge. He remembers how she betrayed him and seethes with rage.

"Jeovi, what's wrong?" the Zoroark hybrid, now known as Nameless and fully evolved thanks to his Vulpix companion, asks worriedly.

"There's a trainer coming, hurry and hide!" Jeovi cries out as a Lucario and Weavile come racing through the trees. Nameless yelps and runs quickly, not looking back as he enters the den. He looks towards Jeovi in terror as she's captured in a Pokéball and carried away.

Nameless spends months tracking her down, finally finding a trainer with a Lucario and Weavile, training his Ninetails in the backyard. Nameless spent nearly six years trying to find her, hoping that his act would finally win her heart. What he finds is enough to break him. Jeovi is lying in the grass under a tree, with six Vulpix pups nursing from her. Nameless walks into the yard, his eyes wide.

"Oh, Nameless, I've missed you. I wanted to show you my pups, three girls, and three boys. Conan is their father. They're hybrids just like you." Jeovi bubbles to the Zoroark hybrid, failing to notice the hurt expression on his face. His eyes flash maliciously as he grips the Ninetails by her throat and tosses her against the tree.

"Don't you DARE compare me to those abominations you've birthed." Nameless snaps as his eyes glow red. Using his speed, he quickly dashes toward Conan and his two Pokémon, slitting the throats of the Weavile and Lucario like warm butter. Conan screams in terror as his beloved starter and companion are cut down in front of him. Jeovi stares in shock and horror as the blood of her teammates is spilt in front of her eyes.

"I wanted to mate you, Jeovi, I loved you, but if you want to fuck a human so damn much, I'll let you watch as everything you care about is destroyed in front of your eyes." Nameless snaps, picking up two of the pups and impaling them on his claws. The screams of the Vulpix hybrids fill the air as their blood and entrails coat the Zoroark hybrid's claws and fur. Within minutes, Jeovi's litter lays dead at her feet. Nameless smiles wickedly as he stalks over to the trainer and begins slashing away at him, not stopping until all that remains is a mass of mangled tissue and broken bone. Then Nameless turns to Jeovi.

"Nameless, I thought you loved me. Why are you doing this?" The Ninetails cries as she nuzzles one of her dead children.

"You misunderstand, Jeovi. It is because I love you that I'm allowing you to live. I won't rest until every last hybrid is dead. The mere thought of a human loving a Pokémon and a Pokémon bearing the offspring of their trainer is a truly sickening notion." Nameless hisses, before attacking his intended mate. He beats her and kicks her until she coughs blood, then he walks away, breaking into the trainer's house to grab a pair of pants and a pack of cigarettes, then leaving for another region, ready to destroy the Pokémon and trainer who gave him life.

Luna feels the hair standing up on the back of her neck as she lies in her bed and tries to sleep. She knows she's being watched and can feel an aura outside her window, but every time she looks, it vanishes. Believing it to be a ghost type, she falls deeper into sleep, unknowingly ignoring the danger she's in.

Nameless knows Luna can sense him, but decides to further his plans of tormenting the hybrid. He destroyed his own parents with his malicious claws, and now his gaze settles upon Luna's mate. He's watched the Entei male for nearly a year, learning his behavior and routine, and now he puts his plan into action. The Zoroark hybrid disguises himself as the Suicune pup Orion, and creeps into the mansion through the open greenhouse window. The sleeping Judge can smell something in the room with him, and looks up from his nap. The massive legendary Dog almost shrieks as he sees the ghostly form of his dead pup standing on the top of the glass case where the body is held. Nameless smirks internally when he smells that the legendary has pissed himself in fear, but doesn't break from his plan. Judge stares, eyes wide open at the hovering body of the pup, gasping for breath.

"Orion? I thought you were dead, son. Why are you here before me now? Have you not moved on to Lavender town yet?" Judge asks, his voice shaking in fear. Nameless smiles

wickedly, the Suicune's mouth opening in a frightening demonic smirk. He lunges at Judge, snarling viciously.

"YOU DARE TO CALL ME SON? I DIED AND INSTEAD OF BURYING MY BODY YOU LEFT IT LAYING HERE IN A GLASS CASE. YOU'RE SUCH A SELFISH BASTARD. YOU KNOW YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIE, AND YET YOU DON'T EVEN COMPREHEND HOW UTTERLY MEANINGLESS YOUR LIFE HAS BEEN!" Nameless shrieks as he makes the Suicune form's head spin completely. Cackling in joy at the fear radiating from the Entei's body he makes the form's body decay in a pseudo corpse fashion, before grabbing onto the Entei's throat and ripping it. Judge tries to scream, but his vocal cords are severed, Nameless has managed to hit only the vocal cords of his prey, the blood not near lethal levels. Judge twists and shrieks, believing he's being attacked by a ghost of his dead pup, not realizing the Zoroark hybrid is very real and very willing to kill him. Trying to twist the Suicune "ghost" off his back, Judge falls through the window of the greenhouse and rips his belly open with the glass window.

Luna hears glass breaking and wakes, but with the pills Rei has given her to help her sleep, she cannot keep her eyes open and falls back into slumber, not realizing that her mate is being attacked by her stalker.

Judge coughs, his saliva flying red from his mouth as his lungs begin to collapse and his chest cavity fills with blood. Nameless smiles from ear to ear, giving even ghost types a cuddly appearance in comparison as he floats over to his prey. The Entei knows his life is ending, but in the instinct to survive, he fights against losing consciousness. Nameless allows his eyes to glow red, walking over to the heavily bleeding Entei and snarls over him, disgusted that the Legendary's carelessness caused his demise. The scent of death clings to the large dog, and Nameless nearly gags from the smell of urine as the large male loses control of himself in his fear a second time.

"WHY SO EAGER TO ESCAPE ME, DAD? YOU'VE SPENT SO LONG KEEPING ME IN YOUR SIGHTS LIKE A SELFISH BASTARD AND YET HERE YOU ARE PISSING ALL OVER YOURSELF AS YOUR STUPIDITY CAUSES YOU TO BLEED TO DEATH!" Nameless shouts, his voice returning to its normal form as he leans down to the dying dog.

"I'll let you in on a little secret, Judge. My name is Nameless, and while I'm not your son, I am happy to be your executioner. I'm going to make it so no trace of you exists after you die, then I'll take your place, and your pretty mate, too. Good bye half-breed fucker." Nameless snarls as he drops the illusion and runs his claws through the Entei's side, slashing over and over until there's nothing left but a mass of ribbon-like meat and fur. Nameless shifts his form into that of Judge, taking up his residence in front of the blood covered casket of his victim's dead son. He uses a fire attack to burn away the traces of death and blood, and then happily falls into a deep sleep, waiting for his quarry to discover him.

Luna bolts awake to a feeling of pain in her heart; her body feels cold and wet, despite her canine inability to sweat. She pants softly before rising from her bed and walking into the hall, greeted by Faero, the ancient Mewtwo asking where Judge is and what the noise was last night. Luna just shakes her head, her panic growing as she walks into the greenhouse where Judge normally sleeps. She sees the massive Entei sleeping in front of Orion's casket, but her nose detects trace amounts of burnt flesh and blood. Luna nudges Judge awake and upon his waking immediately notices something is off.

As Luna gazes into her mate's eyes, she notices the color, normally a molten ruby now a deep malignant red. She doesn't let on her fear, until she notices the scar across his jaw from when Alyria turned, the force of the window exploding as she fled sliced deeply into his jaw and left a bald scar, the mark now gone. Luna whimpers softly and goes to nuzzle her mate, but his body seems to edge away from her touch.

"Judge? Are you alright?" Luna asks as she tries to press against his body for comfort. Nameless cringes as he feels her soft white fur against him, but he steels himself and allows her contact for now. Mustering his best voice, he turns to the Suicune hybrid.

"I'm fine Luna, why do you ask?" He whispers, his voice coming out a tired growl, as planned.

"I heard noises last night, and the room smells of burned blood and flesh, I was worried that thing came back and killed you." She whispers softly, earning a cough from the Entei beside her.

"There was an intruder last night, we fought and I killed him, I did not wish to wake you." Nameless replies, internally gagging from the effort not to torment and kill Luna right here and now. The two head out of the room and down the hall, being greeted by all of the occupants of the mansion, Nameless smirking at heir stupidity as he calculates exactly how long it will take him to kill them all.

Nameless endures playing with the Entei twins, Mirage noticing through her aura senses that Judge isn't Judge, but Nameless, and commenting to Luna that "Daddy doesn't look like Daddy" which serves to make the Suicune hybrid even more nervous around the large male. Nameless just smiles, trying to keep from disemboweling the little pup right there, but knowing she won't survive the night. The two go to bed at night, Luna pretends to sleep for hours, watching as her mate rises from the bed and walks toward the greenhouse. Luna falls into a deep and restless sleep filled with nightmares.

Luna runs through the mansion, to the nursery, sitting on the floor and watching her daughters sleep. A dark shadow slowly filters through the window and materializes into the true form of Nameless. The Zoroark hybrid stands in front of Luna and smiles. In the background,

Luna can hear music playing, and can make out words, the sound sending child rushing down her spine.

Behind those eyes lies the truth and grief

Behind those beautiful smiles I've seen tragedy

The flawless skin hides the secrets within

Silent forces that secretly ignite your sins

"Who are you?" Luna asks, her eyes frightened. Nameless smiles at her and the two walk together towards the crib where her daughters sleep.

"I am not important. You are here to learn." Nameless replies, his voice its normal rasping snarl. His eyes glow red and his body is still shadowy, his extrasensory ability being used to enter the hybrid's dream so he can torment her. Nameless conjures images of her dead family and begins showing Luna how it's her fault they died, and telling her that she killed them, even making her smell the blood.

Fly away, Fly away

From the torch of Blame

They hunt you, Lucifer's Angel

Never lived, Never died,

Your Life has been denied

They call you, Lucifer's Angel

"Why are you doing this? I'm not a killer." Luna snaps, before the scent of blood and entrails makes her gag. She looks at her claws to see the blood and guts clinging to her body and fur.

"Where did all this blood come from?" Luna asks before her vision flashes images of her dead family and Mirage impaled upon her claws. In flashes she sees herself hunting down her mother and killing her, her muzzle stained in blood as she eats her own mother's heart. She sees herself running after and raping her grandfather before biting into his throat and eating his entrails. Screaming, Luna feels herself falling, only repeated screaming chants of Killer echo in her mind.

Luna ends up in another room, hovering over the mansion. She can see down that it's the main living room, and all of the Pokémon and hybrids are gathered around her.

"What am I doing there? I can't be dead." Luna gasps, Nameless appearing next to her.

"You are not dead yet, little One. I just thought it necessary to show you what will happen later. You know they hate you, you know they understand that someday you'll go insane and kill everything you love just like your mother almost did. It's just a matter of time before you snap." Nameless whispers as he places a comforting hand on her shoulder. Luna pulls away and screams at him.

"THAT IS NOT TRUE! Who the hell are you to say such things?" Luna shrieks before Nameless just laughs.

"I'm trying to protect you from them, but if you really want to find out, just listen to them. They're commenting right now how you killed your pups and tried to off your mate, they're telling you you're going to be put down like a rabid dog. They fear you, they never know when you'll snap and kill them too." Nameless hisses at her before running off.

"If you won't believe me, then you'll just have to wake up and find out." He calls back as Luna begins waking up.

Beyond these clouds you can hide all your tears

Beyond this world you'll be safe from their wicked fears

And in their hearts they fear your demands

They'll never understand

Bolting upright in bed, Luna shrieks, before realizing she's awake. She wipes her eyes before noticing her hand is covered in a sticky red liquid. Immediately she is assaulted by the scent of death and blood, thickening the air to near suffocating levels. She looks at her hands and realizes the blood covering them is very real, and very fresh. Luna gasps before noticing a weight in her bed, looking down, she screams before fainting, the body of Mirage is lying mutilated at her feet; the blood is that of her own pup.

Luna is wrapped up in her panic, and doesn't realize, the Zoroark hybrid taking up her mate's body is watching through the window, and laughing.

"Sweet dreams, Lucifer's Angel. You'll never sleep again." Nameless smirks as he walks off to go find Pokémon to destroy.

Nameless snarls as he runs off to go hunting, remembering that at about this time, the Mewtwo is out on his daily rounds. Nameless slips into the bushes to watch Faero going about his daily task of watering the massive orchard, adding in a special mineral mix to the water so the berries don't wither before picking. Nameless finds the Entei form to be difficult to hide, but

intent on executing his prey, manages to fit within a single hedge. Faero can feel he's being watched, but dismisses it as one of the hundred or so Pokémon in residence at Rei-Kai Estate.

Faero hears a noise and turns, Nameless ducking out of the way mere seconds before he's spotted. A silver shape blocks out the sun and descends upon the orchard, landing in a small clearing and shouting a greeting.

"Hello Faero, I take it you were not expecting us? Seka and Rei wished to see if Luna was alright. They understand some things have happened lately and wanted to make sure she's feeling alright." Sevira tells the Mewtwo, her mouth open, but no sound actually emerging. Faero nods and directs them to the mansion, Sevira recalled into her Pokéball while they go into the building.

Nameless is off hunting the Mewtwo for now, his sights set upon the forms of Rei and his mate, the two kissing as they enter the house, and Seka carrying her offspring, a tiny Celebi hybrid, babbling and squirming in its mother's arms. His eyes turn red as his rage overflows. He enters the mansion, keeping a watchful eye on the Kyrian family elders. Luna comes running out, pausing as she sees him, but running to Rei and hugging him tightly, gently kissing Seka's cheek and patting the head of her baby. Luna seems happy, and it only serves to infuriate Nameless more. Sabelle rushes into the room crying, and Nameless walks over to the hybrid pup and calmly asks what's wrong, knowing full well she has most likely stumbled across the corpse of her sister.

"I can't find Mirage, I heard her cry last night, but she's gone. I can smell her blood, I can't find my sister." Sabelle cries as she clings to "Judge", Nameless once again forcing himself not to react to being gripped by the young hybrid. Luna tenses, her body feeling as though ice is flowing through her veins, knowing she hid the body of her daughter in the orchard, under their favorite Pecha tree. Her long mane blowing in the invisible breeze of her powers, Luna squirms uncomfortably at the thought of her daughter clinging to Judge, but she still isn't sure why, other than Judge doesn't seem to be himself. The Entei whispers softly to the pup, and she laughs, running off to play.

Earthshaker walks into the room, his eyes softening at the sight of his son, before he picks up the scent of blood coming from Luna. The elder Entei walks up to his son's mate, gently nuzzling her; before realizing who the blood belongs to.

"Luna, why do you smell of blood? I can smell the stench of death all over you." Earthshaker snarls, his voice thick with fury. Luna drops to the floor, her hands gripping her ears hard enough to draw blood as she curls up, rocking back and forth and crying.

"Luna? What's going on?" Rei asks as he runs over to the hybrid, holding her for a second before a piercing shriek erupts from her rocking form.

"What's happening to me? Am I that horrible? Am I such a freak that my dreams and nightmares are haunting me now? Mirage is dead; her body is under the Pecha tree. I buried it after I had a dream I killed her, and when I woke her body was impaled on my claws. I must have killed her, there's no other way she could have died. I wish I knew why." Luna mutters, tears flowing down her face only to mix with the crimson blood from the wounds on her ears. Rei grabs the Suicune hybrid's hands and restrains her gently, trying not to allow her to cause more harm to herself while Earthshaker and Snow Blynk run to the tree, and dig up their granddaughter.

The sight that greets them is a horrific one, so terrible that Snow Blynk, the most sadistic North Wind, is immediately sick on her own paws. Earthshaker nearly faints from the stench of the corpse once belonging to his grandchild. She is almost unrecognizable, her bones and flesh torn into a twisted, bloody mass of decomposing tissue that not even Luna could have recognized. Earthshaker notices that the only intact part of her face bears a claw mark that Luna could not possibly have made, but he keeps it to himself. After making sure that Sabelle is far away, they bring the corpse inside and show the other occupants of the house, the second shriek rising from Luna's restrained form making the entire mansion shake. Rei is unable to believe that his adopted grandchild could do something so horrible to her own pup, but at Earthshaker's advice they decide to lock her in the basement of the Mansion. The basement door is made of metal from a meteor that hit long ago, making it nearly impossible to break even if Arceus himself tried. They bring Luna to the room containing a mattress and pillows, allowing her simple comforts while restricting her from contact with others. Unless she is being fed, not a single Pokémon or human is allowed to be in the room with her, and even then they must be in pairs with at least one type advantage. Luna cries as she resigns herself to her fate. She faces the wall as her family walks away, cringing as she hears the door slam behind them, and the bolts locking the heavy metal door in place. She looks at the wall before slamming her head against it, a flash of fresh pain bursting in her vision as blood fills her eyes. As she slips into unconsciousness, she thinks of her family, before all of this began.

As Luna sleeps, a blue and black shape watches over her, entering her dream and calling to her.

"Luna, please, get up." A voice calls through a shadowy void as Luna rises from her bed, leaving her body and the world behind. She looks into the shadowy red eyes of the Lucario sanding before her, but cannot figure out who he is. Luna looks frightened and that translates over to her grandfather, his form changed into the young Lucario he was when he first mated Kaitlin.

"Luna, it's me, your grandfather Anova. I was killed by the same creature that killed your mother, the same one that's after you now. I cannot say more, only that you must be careful. You have seen what he's done, and he will strike again. Do not trust Judge. He is not himself and in saying so, your daughter paid with her life." Anova tells her, unsure of how he entered her

dream. He prays to Arceus that his message reaches her and stays with her as she wakes, his spirit feeling foggy as he's pulled from the dream and sent back to Mt. Pyre.

As Luna wakes, she shudders, not really awake as food is quickly shoved at her from the door. As she eats, she realizes that nobody in the family trusts her anymore. The door opens, and a shadowy figure walks through, blood red eyes glaring at her from the shadows. Luna whimpers, unsure whether this being is another dream or a far more sinister being.

"You know, child, you can escape your fate. There is always an option to escape." The figure states, his voice raspy and familiar to her. Nameless of course is the figure, deciding he's spent too long playing with the little hybrid brats and in need of a torture session with his favorite plaything. He has decided Luna's had enough of him and he wants to show a rare side of sadistic mercy and allow her to end her own life. The hybrid looks at him, her eyes unfocused from blood loss.

"What do you mean escape?" She asks, her mind swimming with the attempt at figuring out his words. Nameless smiles, his gleaming white fangs shining in the dimly lit cell.

"I mean death, sweetheart. You could end your own life and be free of this cage once and for all. Your family wouldn't hate you anymore, your pups would see you again, and you wouldn't be hunted anymore." Nameless speaks slowly; almost gagging on the words of near kindness he offers the hybrid mess. Luna's eyes widen as the meaning is finally clear to her.

"I can't do that. Not until I prove that I'm innocent." Luna hisses, immediately falling to the ground and convulsing from lack of sleep and injury.

Nameless hisses in rage as the scent of urine overpowers him as Luna pisses on herself, no longer in control of her own body. Nameless flees, the Zoroark hybrid thoroughly bored of tormenting the girl. He changes back into the form of Judge and exits the room, setting off an alarm to alert the house of trouble in the cell. Putting on his best worried mask, he greets Faero and Shadow, informing them of Luna's condition with a falsified hint of sadness in his voice. As they run into the cell, Nameless glares at the hybrid's now still body and wishes her death to come swiftly.

As Nameless runs towards the room of the still sleeping Sabelle, he shifts back into his true form, deciding to torment the little pup. Sabelle wakes from her slumber as Nameless enters the room, whimpering softly in fear as she sees the strange Pokémon standing over her. Nameless softly talks to the girl, trying to ease her fear.

"Don't worry little Sabelle, I'm not here to harm you. I'm your imaginary friend, Raven." Nameless smirks at giving himself such a great lie. The pup looks up at him with questioning eyes.

"Then why do you smell like my sister's blood?" She hisses, earning a cold glare from Nameless.

"She asked me to watch over you until your mother is well again." Nameless growls, his patience with the little pup already waning. Sabelle stays in her bed, cringing in fear at Nameless for most of the night. As Sabelle wakes and tries to leave the room, Nameless leaps upon her, slashing her body to ribbons in a fit of rage. As he realizes what he's done, the hybrid almost kicks himself. As he picks up the pup's severed head, her spinal cord dangling like a ribbon from the base of her skull, he looks into the bleeding, lifeless eyes of the dead pup.

"It's your fault you know, Sabelle; I wouldn't have had to kill you if you had just gone along with this. Granted you would have been killed eventually, but I would have had more fun, maybe even taken your little puppy virginity before ripping out your guts. But now I've made a mess of things, you see. Your mother was supposed to be locked in that cell until she was mad, and then when she was finally ready to end her own life I would have come to save her and then killed her. Thanks to you my little nuisance, I had to bloody this room and my paws too early. Another little whore will die tonight, and it will be all. Your. Fault." Nameless growls into the pup's ear as he bites down on the soft furred flesh of the earlobe and rips it, cackling gleefully as he tears through her facial muscles and eats them before running out into the yard through the window to go hunting again, not bothering to hide the body.

As the sun rises, a gruesome sight greets Snow Blynk and Earthshaker, the two elderly dogs once again seeing the remains of yet another grandchild, this time scattered across the floor in pieces with blood splattered at odd angles. As Earthshaker manages to compose himself enough to look at the blood markings closer, he can see written words on the floor.

"Having Fun Yet?" Earthshaker reads before roaring in rage. As he races to the cellar, he finds the door unlocked, and Luna passed out on the floor, her mouth crusted with the blood of her daughter. Nameless had gone back after killing yet another Pokémon and staged the room to look like Luna had escaped and killed her child. He used the blood from his meal to smear across Luna's lips and with a small piece of flesh, had coated her teeth with Sabelle's scent. It appears that Luna really is a murderer.

As Luna wakes from her sleep, she's instantly aware that half the mansion is standing over her, most of them with some form of energy attack leveled at her and ready to end her life. She's also distinctly aware that her mouth tastes like blood, and the scent fills her with instant dread.

"What happened?" Luna asks, her eyes wide in fear and shock. As several of the mansion's occupants simply snarl back at her, Earthshaker and Snow Blynk step forward.

"Sabelle was killed last night. The blood you no doubt taste in your mouth is hers. I'll spare you the details since you either know them as the murderer, or don't need those images in your mind if you're innocent." Snow Blynk replies, her voice hoarse from coughing up bile at the sight of her remaining granddaughter splayed out artfully across the entire room, her blood painting the walls like splatter art. As Nameless walks into the room, his body looking like Judge, he can't help but smile at the fate of his quarry.

"Why? Why would you do this Luna? Our pups are gone now. Are you happy? Our children are all dead." He shrieks, doing his best to act like a grieving father while inside he's gleefully trying to break the tortured Suicune.

"Judge, how could you think I've hurt our pups? I loved them, I was broken when Orion died, I nearly went mad when my mother was killed, Anova too. How could you think I'd be capable of such cruelty?" Luna asks, suddenly given a rush of courage from remembering the dream during the night. As Luna sniffs the air, she can smell the blood of her daughter coming from not just her, but Judge as well.

"Earthshaker, Snow Blynk, was Judge with you when you discovered the body?" Luna suddenly asks, her vision clearing for a moment as her mate suddenly pales.

"No, we haven't seen him all night or morning until now." Snow Blynk comments before picking up the scent of blood from the Entei. As she growls deep and low, her own mate turns to his son.

"Judge, you aren't Judge at all are you? I can smell blood on you." Earthshaker snarls, his fur bristling to make the already enormous Entei appear gigantic. The sudden turn makes Nameless growl in frustration before leaping into the air and firing a Hyper Beam at the ground, scattering the group.

As Nameless lands, he's in his true form, the hybrid Zoroark with filthy blue jeans and a malicious grin.

"You caught me, what can I say? I'm just doing the job nobody else seems to want to do. You creatures are disgusting, protecting hybrids and even creating them. You especially Luna. You're my favorite haunt you know that? I executed your mother, your mate, your children, and I was going to execute you, too. Did you know your mother was fucked before she died? I watched her running toward the town, crazy and willing to kill, so I intercepted her. I made her beg for her life, even as her throat was slit, she kept asking me why, so I took out her guts with my claws and painted the ground with them. You may think I'm cruel, but I'm only doing the world a favor. Hybrids are disgusting abominations, and before you say it, I know I am too. Nobody has been willing to end me yet, so I'll go on killing until somebody grows a pair of balls and takes me out. Want to try? Be my guest, filthy whore. I'll die fighting or you'll die trying to kill me." Nameless spits at his words, his saliva tinted pink with the blood of his kills. Luna bristles, her body rising from the ground as her eyes glow a deep blue.

"So you're Nameless. You're a hybrid that executes other hybrids after raping them. How does that make any sense? I have no idea why you chose me you pathetic freak, but I will make you pay for destroying my family." Luna hisses as her body begins glowing. As she prepares a Dragon Pulse, Nameless dodges and quickly races up the stairs and out the window with a maniacal laugh. Luna growls at her captors and pauses for merely a moment.

"If you'll excuse me, I have a psychopath to murder." She hisses, glaring into their eyes before taking off at top speed in pursuit of Nameless.

As Nameless runs he can almost feel his blood pumping through his veins. He feels alive at last, relishing the hunt as he runs towards his domain, the forest where he was born, where it all began. Through his hatred, Nameless can feel his blood stirring something within him, a deep loathing for everything he is. As he stops, mere feet from the den where he was given life, Luna catches up to him.

"This is where it happened you know. Where I began my existence. This was also where I met the one who began this cycle of murder. During the years I wasn't bothering with you I managed to find her, but when I came back to play with you I lost her again. You cost me my greatest prey. So, dear Princess, tell me. Before you die, would you like me to fuck you as I did your mother? Or should I carve my name into your pretty hide? Or maybe I should gut you and wear your bowels as jewelry." Nameless snarls, not even bothering to turn to face the Suicune hybrid.

"Enough. You keep talking tough, like you're some sort of cold killer, but you're as much a slave to instinct as the next hybrid. You're pathetic. So, if you're done talking come at me. Let's see if you can really stand up to another hybrid or if you're as weak and pathetic as you seem." Luna snarls, baring her fangs as her body glows a pale blue. Nameless smirks and nods, extending his claws to reveal an interesting feature of his hybridization.

"You didn't notice, did you? Instead of a normal Zoroark's three claws, I have five. The other two only appear when I extend them, but it gives me a nice advantage over my species." Nameless grins, revealing his sharp fangs as Luna glares harder at him.

The Suicune hybrid races at Nameless, fully intent on striking him with an Ice Punch to his throat. As Nameless uses his illusions to create several copies of himself, Luna appears confused and slows her attack. The Zoroark hybrid snorts at the thought of her trying to end his life, moving a split second before Luna can land the blow and with a kick to her back, sends her flying into a tree.

"Nice try sweetheart, but I'm leagues ahead of your pathetic fighting skills. I can't let you kill me, I still have work to do." Nameless laughs, rising to his feet and straightening out his pants. Luna opens her eyes as she hits the tree, a roar emerging from her mouth as she gets the wind knocked out of her and slides to the ground

in a heap. As the wound on her head is reopened, Luna begins to feel dizzy, but she shakes it off, knowing if she loses consciousness her life will end at the hands of this insane monster.

Nameless leaps into the air, his claws aimed at Luna's heart, the hybrid trying desperately to remain on her feet. Luna manages to look up just in time to see Nameless coming at her and dives to the ground, causing the enraged serial killer to embed his claws deep into the tree. As Nameless struggles to free himself, Luna wraps her long ribbon-like tails around the tree, securing Nameless against the massive trunk with no way out except to destroy the tree, wasting valuable time he could use to kill her. As Luna glares maliciously at the Zoroark hybrid, her body begins to glow pale blue again, signaling her intent to end his life with an ice punch to the heart. Nameless manages to free his hand from the tree by using a small Dark Pulse, just as Luna pierces his chest with her claws. The Zoroark hybrid begins laughing as he feels his body losing heat rapidly as Luna unloads an icy charge near his beating heart.

"So, you've done it. You've finally killed me." Nameless comments, his breathing turning to coughing fits as the frozen energy begins turning the very air in his lungs to ice. Luna gasps as with the small amount of room Nameless created for himself proves enough for him to dart his hand out and pierce her belly with his razor sharp claws.

"I'll take joy in the fact that your end will come with mine though, sweetheart. Your filthy hybrid life will end here, at my claws, just like the lives of your beloved family members." Nameless manages to gasp out as Luna pours more energy into her attack, aiming to pierce the hybrid's very heart with an icicle made of his own blood. Nameless only smiles and laughs, though less gleeful than before as he feels his own blood turning to ice in his veins. As his eyes darken, he feels the final beats of his heart within his chest before it too freezes with Luna's attack.

With a feral shriek, Luna pulls her hand from within Nameless' chest cavity, blood pouring from her side and her head, severely weakening her. Luna's shriek brings the attention of Nurse Joy, out in the forest tending to a young Eevee kit, and as the woman comes running, she is frozen herself in fear at the sight of what certainly appears to be a fierce battle.

With only a momentary hesitation, Nurse Joy rushes Luna to the Pokémon Center, intent on treating the Suicune hybrid as if she were family, but at the look of emptiness in Luna's eyes, Nurse Joy pauses again.

"Don't bother saving me. Everything I ever was died in that forest, everyone I loved died at the hands of the monster you found me with, just let me go." Luna comments, her voice flat and devoid of any hint of emotion. As she struggles to get up, Nurse Joy rushes to her side to restrain her, but is stilled by a look of resolution in the hybrid's eyes. As Luna walks out of the center, blood dripping from her massive wounds, she looks up at the sky and smiles.

"I told you I'd be fine Mama. I did it. I survived." Luna whispers as she walks into the forest, blood loss weakening her further until she collapses near a large tree. As the light fades from Luna's eyes, she wonders if she'll see her mate and pups again, visions of the five of them playing in a field dancing in her mind as it, too fades and grows dark. As Luna draws her final breath, a sense of peace washes over her, and she leaves this existence with a smile on her face.

The End.
