#1 of My New Best Friend: a riolu fanfiction


HI GUYS!!! So, i know its been like a year and a half but i decided to give this story another shot. I will try to continue it for the following month since i have a lot of time in my hands. The story will remain the same but with some minor changes. As i finished reading all 10 chapters i saw some FATAL mistakes with the traveling plan. Looks like Alexs just appears and disappears in different cities without actually traveling through the region properly. However, i will not address this issue for the already written chapters since that would mean i would have to re-write them all, i will, however fix and take into account the geography of the region for the new chapters to come. Also, i decided that all the attempted blowjobs and sex imagery was unnecessary so I deleted them off the chapters (you may have noticed I reedited some) so just so you guys know those never happened as of now! Anyway, I will try to upload each chapter as soon as possible as i will alternate between stories (check the new one in case you haven't!!!!)

************************************************************************************************************

The sun was shining bright in Pastoria and a sleepy Alex was laying on top of the bed wrapped in blankets. The room was quiet and the sun entered the room gracefully. Around 9:30 the human woke up and stood up. As he stretched, Manectric, who was laying in bed as well, opened his eyes. Alex head over to the bathroom to get ready, but before he got in he turned away and spoke:

"Manectric, thanks for fighting for me yesterday, you were awesome!" He said happily as the pokemon roared back at him. As he finished, he entered the bathroom and forcefully slammed the door behind him. The sound of the impact waked up the blue puppy sleeping on the couch. The dog slowly lifted his head up and looked around the room. He stared at Manectric for a while, then at the bed and finally at the window where the blue sky was.

"Its a beautiful day isn't it?" Said the lion with a deep voice. "Huh? Oh yeah..it is. I like sunny days!" Replied Riolu. "How's your paw feeling?" "A lot better! It doesn't hurt so bad anymore" "Well I'm glad to hear that!"

Riolu smile at the lion. He really liked Manectric. He was nice with him!

"You better get ready, as soon as Alex comes out we will part again to the next city" "Um..ok" Riolu obeyed and he carefully stood up to test his recently healed foot. He could walk on his own now! As soon as he was fully awake both Pokemon heard the door of the bathroom open. Alex came out wearing a new grey shirt some ripped jeans and a nice jacket. He proceeded to grab his bag to finish packing up.

"Alright guys! Ready for another traveling day?!" "RIO!" "Manectric!

The trainer and both creatures exited the room happily ready for a new day full of adventures to come!

************************************************************************************************************ But before they could start their way off to Hearthome City, Alex had to make another call to his sister. After his match with Crasher Wake, he had no further use for Manectric, and even though he enjoyed his company's, his sister needed him back. Alex got to the reception of the Pokemon center and he head straight to the communication booths. He dialed the number of his sister and waited for her to pick up:

"Hello?" "Hi! Zara its me Alex!" "Oh hi how are you? How did the gym match go? Did you win?" She seed very exited. "I'm fine thanks, and yes! It was awesome. Manectric did a fantastic job against Crasher Wake and he beat his Gyarados in no time! "Oh wow that's so cool! I'm glad he could help!" "Yes! Thanks for lending him! It was fun to have him around for a couple of days!" "It's no problem! Are you gonna sent him back now?" "Yeah...I figured you might want him as soon as possible." "Sure no problem, I can receive him now." "Alright, just a sec I'll have everyone else say goodbye to him!" "Go ahead!" She said happily.

As she finished Alex brought his other Pokemon out. Ponyta, Staraptor and Prinplup said their farewells without trouble, but Riolu...well you can imagine how that went. He was a bit down that the lion Pokemon had to go.

"Listen Riolu, to me it looks like you like Manectric can definitely become friends when we get back home, but right now he has to go to his owner, my sister. But don't worry, you'll see him again, I promise!" Said Alex as he explained to the pup why he was sending the electric type away.

"Rio...." Pouted the dog in as he understood what his trainer was saying. As soon as he finished talking, Riolu hugged Manectric and waved goodbye with his tiny paw.

"Alright Manectric, return". Alex pointed his poke all to the lion and he soon disintegrated in a Rey of light. The human deposited the pokeball into the transportation devise and sent it back to his sister.

"I just sent him back" "Yeah... I just checked and he arrived safely!" "Thanks again Zara, have a nice day!" "You too, bye!" "Bye"

Alex hung up and turned around to his team.

"Ok, now, let's get going! I ain't getting any younger here!" Joked the trainer as he pulled Riolu up his shoulder. The gang exited the Pokemon center ready to resume their journey.

************************************************************************************************************

It was around 11:00am when the group left Pastoria City and head over to route 212, a landmark known for its vast swamps and rainy weather. Fortunately, though, the day was still sunny and the wind blew softly. The gang kept walking for over an hour while gazing at the trees and flowers; Riolu was very exited as usual. He was running and jumping up and down the fields near the swamps, sniffing the flowers and howling like a real dog. This had the rest of the team quite annoyed. Ponyta and Staraptor just decided to ignore him, while Prinplup was just mumbling under his breath how irritating Riolu was. Alex was the only one paying close attention to him. He was walking right behind the pup making sure he didn't get in any trouble, but his concentration didn't last long. His mind started drifting away as he began to think about what he read last night before sleeping:

FLASHBACK: "How to leave your Pokemon in adoption". Alex read the tittle several times before actually reading what the pamphlet said. For some odd reason he just didn't have the strength to keep going further. It took him a while, but eventually he carefully started reading every point written on the paper. It went something like this:

"Sometimes raising a Pokemon can be hard, and you have to remember that you are reading this for the best interest of your Pokemon. Wether it is problems with the money, sustaining your Pokemon, not having time for them, or any other possible reason you could have, remember you did your best..." Well that's a great dose of bullshit...though Alex as he kept reading. "However, there is one thing that is crucial, be kind and do not end the relationship abruptly! The best thing that can be done is to introduce your Pokemon to our day cares slowly before leaving them in our hands. Bring him or her for a play date! Let them get used to meeting other people so it is not harsh on them.........blab bla bla." Alex kept reading the whole thing, but nothing there was worth mentioning to him. He closed the pamphlet and put it inside his bag before crawling back to bed and closing his eyes...

END OF FLASHBACK

Alex suddenly came back to his senses when he heard Riolu scream. He was a little late to the party, but what happened was that Riolu, in one of his high jumps over the meadow, accidentally hit Ponyta in her back, causing her to kick the dog as a reflex. The puppy was sent flying all the way to one of the swamps and he landed in the mud.

"RIOOOOOOOO RI RI RH WAUFF EIOO!!!!!!!!" the puppy screamed in pain as his face ached because of the hit the fire horse had just inflicted on him, and, on top of that, he was stuck in the mud and couldn't move. "The hell what happened!!!?!? Questioned Alex. "RIO DJEI RIOOOO" the puppy was struggling to get out of the mud but was soon pulled out by his trainer. "Ugghhh look at you Riolu!!!! You're all dirty and stinky GOSH!!!" Alex himself was struggling to not yell at him. "Damn, seriously....now I have to bathe you again and we are in the middle of a meadow with no tubs or clean rivers....how am I supposed to clean you now..." A tone of frustration and irritability were starting to show off.

" Rio...(Im sorry....)" Said the Aura Pokemon even if he knew that wouldn't calm things down. " you just...stay here, don't move!!!!! I'm gonna go check to see if Ponyta got hurt". Said the human with a tense tone as he approached the pony.

"Hey girl your alright, Riolu didn't hurt you did he?" The horse gave him the "no" signal, she was alright. "Well, at least no one got hurt this time..." As soon as Alex finished saying that, he turned around at the exact precise moment Riolu decided to shake his entire body like a wet animal. Every single crum of mud was sent flying towards Alex, staining his new shirt and pants. Everyone freezed immediately waiting for Alex to explode on Riolu for the 1000th time. Prinplup and Ponyta were quiet and event Staraptor with his unbothered personality was stone cold. Don't even ask about poor Riolu, that poor guy knew what he just gotten himself into. He shut his eyes and prepared internally to hear Alex curse at him, but to everyone's surprise, he didn't. He just stood there with a tight fist and a serious face. Riolu couldn't understand why wasn't he screaming at him. Next, Alex wiped off some of the mud that had landed on his face and quietly said:

"....this. Is. What. We. Are. Going. To. Do....we are going to keep walking silently. I DO NOT want to hear anyone or anything say a word or sound. We're just going to keep moving, nothing else. I don't wanna see anyone running or jumping neither. We will wait to get to the city to get clean and after that we're going to stay in the hotel....understand!!!!????" You could sense he was very very VERY angry but was making an effort to not scream. The whole team nodded, terrified as hell. They were all silent until Alex spoke again.

"Oh...and Riolu...." *the dog frightened looked up to his trainer* "Keep your fucking distance....I don't wanna the rest to get filthy...."

Riolu, filled with mud nodded in understanding and made his biggest effort to not let his tears escape...he knew that would only make Alex angrier. He managed to not explode this time, but the dog could still read his aura, which was raging with outrage.

The gang obeyed to what Alex had said and walked beside him silently. And about 10 meters away from them, a dirty dog followed sadly....

************************************************************************************************************

It was the middle of the afternoon when Alex and his Pokemon were almost through route 212. Still, no one had made a sound...well, except for Riolu who was cursing at himself while crying over 30 feet behind the rest.

"How could I be so stupid *cries*....I didn't mean it but I always wreck things *pants*....I'm such and idiot *breathes heavily*....he probably hates me now *cries*.....and he looked so nice today and I ruined it....."

Riolus rant was soon interrupted as he softly crashed into Ponytas body. She had stopped walking so Riolu could catch up with her. "*cries* um...sorry...I didn't mean to-- "It's ok. But seriously, we can hear you from all the way up there, it's bothering all of us and if master hears you He will get even angrier at you. Just breathe in, nothing was lost." For some reason her soft feminine voice was very reassuring to the puppy. He just listen closely and stopped whining. He soon caught up with the gang, who remained quiet still.

************************************************************************************************************ A handful of minutes went by when a droplet of water fell on top of the flying Pokemon. As soon as he felt his feathers get wet, he approached the human to make him aware. He flew straight up and landed on Alex's shoulders. "Oh hey! Big boy what you doing up there!!?" The weight of the bird unbalanced him a bit. "Starr Staraptor!" The bird chirped as he showed him his wet feathers. Shortly another drop of water fell, and another and another.

"Oh crap come on guys hustle we need to find shelter from the rain NOW!"

Prinplup began sliding around the land by using the water as a slide force, Staraptor flew way up high over the storm to avoid getting wet, and Alex and Riolu mounted Ponyta as se galloped into the forest. It took a while but they eventually reached an old looking manor in the middle of the woods that was good enough for shelter. Alex knocked several times without answer, but for some strange reason the door was unlocked and he decided to go in. After all, he preferred to go inside and be warm than to stay outside in the rain. Besides, ponyta's flames were fainting more and more with the water and she needed shelter fast.

"Come on everyone let's head inside before the storm gets any worse!!!!" Shouted Alex as all his Pokemon entered. Once inside Alex explored the property and found nothing but destroyed furniture and old rugs and paintings all over the place.

"This is probably the messiest place I've been to...and from what I can tell, it's abandoned, it's gonna be a great place for us to stay. Prinplup and Staraptor, why don't you guys start unpacking as much as possible while I look for a bathroom to bathe myself and that dirty pup. *he looks at Riolu* "Prinplup!" "Star star!!!" Both Pokemon opened up the bags while the fire pony rested on the floor.

"Riolu, come on let's get you cleaned up." This time Alex managed to say this without cringing at Riolu, who silently followed him. He was still scared and sorry for today.

************************************************************************************************************ After locating a bathroom Alex showered himself and was now warming up the tub for Riolu. He was a lot more calm now.

"I think the water is ready, you can get in" "......" "Hey, it's warm now, come on jump in" said again Alex. But Riolu wouldn't move. Alex hadn't noticed but ever since the two were alone Riolu had crawled into a corner without making any notice, just stood there. That's when Alex understood Riolu was still afraid he was angry... "Hey....sweetie....look, I know that I get angry at you for little stuff all the time...its just that I don't put up with infants, so it frustrates me easily, but 90% of the time I don't actually get angry angry, you understand? "Rio?" The pup faintly responded. "It's ok if you make a mess of things every now and then, but not every single day. You just have to be more careful, and know that I'm really not mad at you, I just loose it but I don't mean any of what I yell to you...now can you please get in the tub so I can clean you up?" The puppy showed a smile of relief and happily jumped into the tube where Alex gave him a thorough bath. "Jees you stick really bad sweetie!" He said mockingly. It took Alex about 30 minutes to finally get all the dirt off of Riolus fur. When he was done he picked up the dog and carried him to the counter where he started drying him off.

"Just wait till I'm done drying your hair with the towel, then you can shake the rest of the water, I don't wanna get this place all wet. "Rio rio" the puppy wasn't even gonna shake himself anyway. Not after today. Both kept exchanging words (more like words and growls) when a huge noice echoed in the bathroom. *BOOM*! It scared both Alex and Riolu.

"What was that?" *BOOM!* "There it is again!!! I thinks coming from...the bath tube?" *BOOM!* "Yes, that's definitely coming from behind the curtain...but how is that possible, we were just inside the tub!?!?!??"

Riolu soon grew incredibly scared. Something was in the room and it was not a nice feeling to him. Alex approached the shower curtain slowly and with a bit of fright inside him. He moved closer and closer until he reached the curtain. He slowly grabbed it and quickly pulled it straight open.

"OH MY GOSSSHHH!?!?!?? " "RIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Both screamed as loud as thunder. The dog started crying and ran for his life. He left the bathroom in shock and full of fear. His tears could barely let him see as he ran down the halls of the house.

"RIOLU ITS OK! they won't hurt you!!!" Yelled Alex. But it was too late, Riolu was already lost inside the house.
