I woke up feeling amazing, Jolene's body cuddled into mine. The sun wasn't even up yet, and I wondered if I even got any sleep, but I felt refreshed. I lightly stroked Jolene's hair, and she stirred in my arms. After a mont she looked up at with tired eyes. It was clear that she hadn't gotten enough sleep yet.
"I am going to get up and start my rounds with everyone," I said, and kissed her forehead.
Jolene just moaned at , and then closed her eyes again. Last night must have been a lot for her, so there was a good chance she wouldn't get out of bed until much later. Still, I didn't get up right away, and enjoyed laying there for another ten minutes before squeezing out of bed and summoning clothing.
I closed my eyes, and scanned over each poke ball to see who was awake. It was about 5 am, so I didn't expect anyone to be awake, but to my surprise, both Nemona and Lusamine were awake in the center of Nemona's stadium. I opened my eyes in Nemona's habitat, and then jogged over and pushed the big doors open.
Inside, Nemona and Lusamine were both sparring, but it was like watching sothing out of a movie. I could move like them with my Hydro Shock Skin activated, but both of them were just using their normal bodies since Lusamine didn't have a core, or a skin yet.
I watched as Nemona sparred with Lusamine, their movents fluid and precise. Nemona's agility and strength were remarkable, her strikes controlled yet powerful. Lusamine, despite lacking a core or a special skin, held her ground with skillful dodges and counterattacks. It was clear they were both pushing each other to their limits.
I leaned against the doorway, observing quietly. Nemona noticed first, her eyes locking onto mine briefly before she continued her spar with Lusamine. The rhythmic sound of their movents filled the arena, a testant to their dedication and training.
After a few more minutes, they paused, both breathing heavily but with determined expressions. Nemona walked over to , her deanor focused yet relaxed.
"You're up early," she greeted, wiping sweat from her brow. "Couldn't sleep? Or did Jolene not yet you?"
I smiled, "She tried, but I ended up getting a few hours. I was thinking of doing so training with Cryo, and since both of you are up, I thought that you might want to join ?"
Lusamine ca over after she had caught her breath, and frowned at . "Is it going to be like before?"
In response, Cryo appeared. "Yes, but it will not be as intense for you this ti since your body has grown dramatically since your last session with Landon."
Nemona looked between Lusamine and I, and I explained how the training worked. "Oh? So you just spit in my mouth or any other place, right?"
I laughed. "A kiss is better, since it takes a few seconds to transfer the nanobots."
Nemona grinned at this, and then leaned in conspiratorially. "On which pair of lips do you want to kiss ?"
"Nemona!" Lusamine snapped, and Nemona backed up a step with her hands up, but she gave a knowing wink.
"Fine, fine,” She said, looking back at Lusamine. “But you are really going to have to lock things down with Landon here soon! I like training with you, but I am not going to walk on eggshells forever while you hold your virginity at ransom from him!" Nemona said with no remorse and then pulled into a passion kiss.
I returned it, but I also activated my skin to create a water barrier to block the view. It only took a few monts, but Nemona was getting pretty frisky the entire ti. I was glad I put up a barrier, but it was clear that Nemona would need so of my attention in the future. After we pulled apart, I pinched her bottom, giving her a aningful look.
Nemona rolled her eyes, and mouthed, "I know" back to with a grin, and I walked through the wall of water. Lusamine was on the other side with her arms crossed, but she didn't seem mad, which was a relief. I walked over to her, and then extended the wall of water around and over us, creating a do.
"What is this for? I already have the nanobots in , right?" Lusamine asked as I walked up to her, but I summoned her poke ball and one of the Super Rare Candies.
"This is called a Super Rare Candy, and it is designed for humans. It will help you form a core, and gain an ability," I explained, offering the candy to Lusamine. "I have no clue what kind of ability you will get, but the other thing that I want to give you is special skin for your poke ball, just like Nemona and I."
Lusamine could only stare at the candy in my hand before looking up at with an unsure look. "Are you sure? Won't I just form a core on my own if I just do it with you like everyone says?"
I shook my head. "Doesn't matter what anyone says. You deserve this, and I am in no hurry to do anything with you. Take your ti, but I can see that you are putting in a ton of work to get stronger. I have no idea how the future is going to go, but I would sooner be more prepared than not."
Lusamine hesitated for a mont, staring at the Super Rare Candy in her hand. Her expression softened as she realized the significance of the offer. She nodded slowly, a mix of determination and gratitude evident in her eyes.
"Thank you, Landon," she said softly, taking the candy from him. "I... I want this. I want to be stronger, like you and Nemona."
I smiled warmly, placing a hand on her shoulder. "You've already shown incredible strength, Lusamine. This will just help you unlock even more of your potential."
