Journey to Another World 3 Ch. 13 "Here's to Kit's first successful battle." I said as I raised my glass of juice towards her which was met by a happy bark by Kit. We were now back in the Pokemon center, sitting back in the cafeteria section for trainers. I'd decided that I might spoil my girls a bit today and order a bit of a fancy feast for my two ladies that sat opposite me in the booth. Before we knew it, the sun had quickly crossed the sky and was now kissing the horizon as I looked at it through the window of our booth. Jenavee had taken the window seat on the opposite side of me, while Kit had taken the outside seat. Once we'd finished with our outdoor fun, we'd gone back to the center and checked in on Rena to find that she still needed at least another hour or two until she would be fully recovered. So in order to pass the time, I decided to treat Kit and Jenavee to a nice dinner. "Ya I guess so." Jenavee looked over at Kit and gave her an unimpressed look. "She did ok for her first battle." Then whispered the next bit. "Even though it was against a lowly bug." I guess she was still a little upset that she had freaked out over a bug Pokemon, whereas Kit had taken it on without batting an eyelash. She slowly raised her glass and took a small sip of her lemonade. Kit gave off a happy bark again, then proceeded to attack her food. I'd made sure that she'd receive a special treat in her food, (a little bit of steak that had been marinated in a secret sauce) and by the look in her eyes when she had taken the first bite, she was greatly surprised. She slowly looked up to me, then turned to Jenavee who was still not paying her any attention, because she was eating her food, and looked back at me. She gave me a pleading look then looked down at her food. "What's the matter Kit? Don't you like your food?" She quickly shook her head and started to say something to Jenavee in her native tongue. "Can you not see that I am eating." She said in an obvious annoyed voice, but Kit continued to pester her. "Alright already, I will ask him." She finished off what she was eating, took a long sigh, then looked up to me. "Kit wants to know if this food is really for her." I turned to Kit. "Well of course it is Kit. Who else would it be for?" I said to her, as she just looked down at her food. "I had the kitchen specially prepare that just for you. But if you don't want it..." I didn't need to say more as she dived right into her food and began to eat it faster than before. "Wow." I looked over to see that Jenavee had the same expression as I had on her face. "What has gotten into her. It is like she has not eaten in days." She looked over at me. "Your telling me. It's almost like..." "Like what?" She asked as she cocked her head to the side. I didn't answer her as I was transfixed by how fast she was eating without choking on her food. She didn't even stop for a breath as she continued to devour her food. After a little while I could see that Kit had finished her meal and was staring at the bottom of her food dish. Almost like she was looking to see if she could find any sauce or something else to lick up. Then to add to the mystery of Kit, she began to cry. I couldn't help but get up from my seat, go over to her, and began to rub her back. "Now what's brought this on all of a sudden?" I looked over to Jenavee, only to see her shrug her shoulders. Just then Kit's head fell into my lap where she began to bawl. ‘Was the food that good?' Jenavee asked me privately. As she looked down at her empty bowl. ‘For some reason. I think it was something deeper than that.' I didn't know what had caused this, so I let her cry for a while. "It's going to be alright Kit. I promise that whatever happened back then, that it's over now. Your with us now and I promise to take great care of you." * * *

(Later that afternoon)

• * * "She just broke down and cried?" Rena asked Jenavee. After we'd finished our dinner the nurse came into the café and gave me Rena's ball, and the four of us got a room. I had decided to wash up my cloths so I let Rena out of her ball in the room and took Kit down with to the wash. So it was just the two girls in the room at the moment since I didn't want to let Kit out of my sight. "It was the strangest thing. She asked if it was alright that she had something this delicious, or was it her last meal." "And what do you think that means?" "Well I think it is quite easy to understand." "I guess your right. She must have been just like me. Do you think it was the breeder that did something to her, or her last trainer?" "You know that there is only one way to know for sure. And quite frankly, I do not want to press the issue right now. Though, something is still bugging me." "Oh, and what might that be?" Jenavee paced around the room for a bit, then sat down in one of the chairs. "You told me that when Donovin took you down there to the breeder, and when you saw Kit for the first time, she was someone that looked very strong willed. Do you really see someone that is that strong willed just break down and cry at just some good food?" "You know what, I think you are right. But then again that might have been the key thing." "You are going to have to explain that one to me." This time it was Rena that paced around the room for a little while then stopped right in front of Jenavee. "Let us say that her last trainer was someone who never gave her any kind of kindness. That she was given nothing but bad food, never a compliment when she fought hard for that person, and when she was defeated in a battle she was probably beaten, then finally sold off to that breeder. Thinking that that was the only thing that she was good for. When she first arrived at the breeders place, she was given such good food that she never knew the like. But then realized what or who she was sold to and her role from then on." "You know, that is pretty deep Rena. I wonder if that might just be the case. Or something close to that." Just then laughter was heard coming from the other side of the door. "Shh. I think that they are coming up the stairs right now." "You silly fox. Now come on now, stop dancing around me for a minute before..." Donovin couldn't stop laughing as Kit would bounce around him and tickle him under his arms with her tails as she would leap away once she did, then assault him again. Donovin couldn't hold it back any longer as she had gotten him in one of his most ticklish spots, and let out a big laugh. Effectively making him drop to the floor on his back and get covered in all his clean cloths. He abruptly stopped laughing and just lay under his cloths. When Kit came sniffing under the cloths He quickly leapt out from under the cloths and assaulted her in her ticklish spots. The two of them didn't hear the door open as both girls come out of the room to watch them tickling each other. "Now is that not just a wonderful sight." Both Donovin and Kit stopped and looked up at the two girls standing over them. Donovin flipped over to his stomach and was just about to push himself up when Rena jumped onto his back but was flattened to the down to the floor. When he looked up at Rena, she had a large smile on her face, grabbed his shirt, and started riding him like a child gets a horsie back ride. (Authors explanation of a horsie back ride: When a child rides around on his fathers back like the child was riding a horse and the father would walk around the room like that.) "Oh come on Donovin. Do not let us out of the fun as well." To which Donovin couldn't help but smile as he pushed himself up and walked around for a minute before he heard someone messing around with his cloths. When he turned around he could see that Jenavee was picking up the cloths along with Kit's help. Though Kit used her tails to pick up the shirts or such and hand them up to Jenavee. ‘Donovin. Jenavee needs to talk to Kit for a minute, so why not just take me into the room and let them talk for a minute in private.' He gave her a neigh and then pranced into the room, with Rena laughing the whole way in. * * *

• * * With a quick nod, he trotted into the room and Jenavee closed the door after them. "Good, now that we are alone I need to talk to you...Kit." Jenavee said as she turned from the door to Kit, only to see that Kit had turned her nose up at Jenavee. "And what do we have to talk about that was so important that you had to interrupt my fun with him?" Kit said to her in her native tongue. "Well first of all little lady, do not get fresh with me. I have been with him much longer than you and can see right through your little antics. So if you think for a second that I am going to let you manipulate our trainer and master...." "That is right, our master and trainer. Key word...Our. Meaning not just yours or that two legged dog girl in there. All of ours." Kit walked around Jenavee as if sizing her up for a minute before she stopped and sat on her haunches in front of her. "I guess the idea that I had of you was right." She raised a paw at Jenavee and pointed it at her. "You really are protective of our trainer. So much so that you will not let any other girl get anywhere near him." "And why would I not be? After all I am his first Pokemon, companion, and..." Just then Jenavee paused and banged a fist against the door of the room that we were all staying. The sound of something hitting the floor was heard from the other side, as well as something scurrying away. Just like you'd hear mice running over a roof. "Seriously. Listening in on other peoples conversations..." * * *

(Switch perspectives again)

• * * "I can't believe that she caught us listening in on their conversation." I said as I crab walked away from the door, as Rena was on all fours quickly moving away from the door as well. Giggle, "Well I did warn you that she would probably notice sooner or later." She giggled again at the sight of me walking like a crab. Eventually we ended up sitting on the bed facing one another. "So what did you hear?" I asked her as I couldn't hear them talking through the door as well as understanding Pokemon speech. "Well if you must know, it is none of your business." Which caught me by surprise, but she leaned in closer. "So you will have to keep this between us." I gave her a quick nod. ‘Jenavee is still a little suspicious of Kit and does not trust her fully yet.' ‘Well I guess that's understandable. Trust can't be given, it has to be earned.' ‘But I do not think that that is all of it.' She looked towards the door then back at me. ‘I think that she is a little jealous of Kit.' ‘And that is because?' Rena just rolled her eyes. ‘Oh come now Donovin. Is it not obvious? You have been spending so much time with me and Kit that you have almost totally forgotten about her.' She said as she emphasized her point by poking me in the chest. ‘I think it is time that you spent some quality time with her, before you spend any more with Kit.' This time it was me that looked towards the door. ‘You know what? Your right. It has been a while since I pampered her a little.' ‘And by the look of her Aura, I think it is high time that you did do something with her.' ‘Maybe spend a little alone time with her, if you get my drift..." Wink wink, nudge nudge. "AND WHERE ARE YOU GOING WITH...TH...THIS?" Just then the door to the room slowly opened. "I do not really care about what happened in your past. The past is in the past. All I care about is that your trying to move in on my...mast...oops." Jenavee stopped what she was saying as she saw that both Rena and I staring at her. Both of us had what could only be described as those big googly eyes, staring right at her. She had that look of a child caught with their hand in the cookie jar, or someone that had been severally shocked by something that they weren't expecting. I turned to Rena and asked the biggest rhetorical question of the week. "Was she about to say what I think she was about to say?" Rena slowly turned to look at Jenavee out of the corner of her eye, but still faced me. "You know what, I think she was just about to say..." She wasn't able to finish the last part of her sentence as Jenavee quickly rushed across the room and clamped her hand over Rena's muzzle, then began to laugh in an embarrassing kind of way. "Do not pay her any mind Donovin. Rena is just...just..." "Is just what." I asked in total innocence. "Oh you know. Just trying to say anything to get out of my punishment for listening in on my conversation with Kit here." And to emphasize her point, Kit jumped up on the bed with us and started to nuzzle against my shoulder. "Is that not...right...Rena!" She told her as she gave her muzzle a quick squeeze, and a look of, ‘I'll kill you if you say anything'. To which Rena just nodded with wide watery eyes. (Authors note: There is a reason why dogs whimper when you grab them there. It's very sensitive.) ‘Definitely to much tension in this room. I think I will take Kit out with me so that the two of us can chat. There are a few things that I have been meaning to talk to her about.' Rena shook off Jenavee's hand and said something to her in Pokemon speech then took Kit by the scruff of the back of her neck and practically dragged her out of the room. "You two have a fun time...alone...together."
