The two electric-types arrive at the ridge, with the winner being Rayne of course and she couldn't help but flash a grin at the Larger Pokémon as she'd triumphantly beating him once again.

"Man Luster you're slower than a slowbro," Rayne spoke in a sarcastic tone, before snickering softly as teasing her friend was one of her favorite activities.

"Your jokes get worse with each passing day" He retorted to the Manectric, even though the point of it was to be bad, yet he lowered his head and walked through some shrubbery only to see a few Pokemon standing in a clearing, at first glance it seemed as if it was just two Pokemon, but after a few moments of observing it became clear that it was a far more tense situation.

The Manectric poked her head out of the shrubbery to see the commotion and it was an interesting sight to say the least "Think we're gonna see a fight?" She said with a grin as she glanced over to the Luxray, who was quite interested in what was to happen, yet the Houndoom suddenly stepped back which caused three other figured to emerge from the forest.

The three figures, surrounded the Pokémon in the center which after closer inspection was revealed to be a Shiny Midnight Lycanroc this Lycanroc seemed to be younger than Hush maybe around the age of both Rayne and Luster. The three Pokémon which had emerged then moved forward, surrounding the Lycanroc from all four sides, including the Houndoom and they suddenly began to attack.

Bonn's POV

"It's weird, ever since I started my own journey into the world I've always wanted to be a part of something not for the perks or anything like that just to have a greater sense of being alive but being beaten to a pulp and not being able to fight back as an initiation isn't exactly what I had in mind," I thought to myself, as each blow was dealt to me, but with each hit, I stood back up shrugging them off.

The Houndoom finally spoke a word after the silence "Heh up again huh? Don't worry we'll fix that soon enough..." The three other pokemon consisted of a Zoroark who stood behind me, along with Lucario which stood at my right, and a Greninja at my left.

"S-Shit..." I said weakly before I was hit on each side with a combination of attacks and this finally did it, as I lost all feeling in my body before I face planted into the ground and everything went black.

"Heh, guess that's all she wrote, nice work boys move out!" The Houndoom spoke in a tone of pride, before he turned away from me and began to walk away, his goons following behind him.

3rd person POV

The two electric-types had watched the entire event and though they both contemplated rushing down to help, there was nothing they could have done as those four would have easily overpowered them, yet it seemed to be over as the three Pokemon followed the Houndoom he was more than likely in a position of power.

"Fuck... Do you think they killed him?.." Rayne spoke glancing over to her friend, yet she got no reply as he looked petrified by the event, as sure he'd seen Pokémon Injured by others hell they injured each other all the time but this was different.

The Luxray snapped out of his trance as the Manectric bumped his side, but he focused for a moment as he looked closely at the Lycanroc and luckily his fluffy chest rose and fell showing he was breathing. "He's breathing..." He said softly which was filled with relief.

The two then began to crawl through the shrubbery and quickly move down the mountain as they were hidden. The Luxray was the first to reach the clearing which surprised the Manectric, as she was moving quickly, but then again Luster was quite the caring Pokemon so she couldn't blame him.

Rayne walked up behind Luster and now she was able to get a better look at the Lycanroc, he didn't look the best to say the least and it was motivation for them to move. "let's take him back to the village and Hush can patch him up" She said glancing up to the Mon, not liking the fact that they actually needed the help of the Doctor.

Luster nodded, as he leaned down wrapping his tail around the waist of the Lycanroc pulling him up onto his back before standing back up to his full height. "Let's move.." he said having a time of worry in his voice, as he hopped they couldn't make it back to the village in time.

=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=

As the two electric types made it back to the village the residents gave them mixed looks of confusion and disappointment, as most of them assume they'd fought the Lycanroc, yet the two were only trying to help the male, but due to their history together it was safe to assume this would never be thought.

Hush had already gotten ready to close up so when he saw the two Electric types approaching him with what seemed like another injured Pokemon on Luster's back normally he would he upset, yet he grew a face of worry as he opened the door. "You two can just have a normal day can you?" He asked since he didn't even recognize this Mon.

"Shut it Hush, just help the poor bastard!" Rayne said in a tone of aggravation, she already had been having a good day, so for it to be ruined by the male wasn't the best thought in her mind.

Hush glared at the manectric, yet his gaze softened as he looked up to the Lycanroc and saw the burns it and cuts, clearly the two didn't hurt him or at least hadn't in any way he could see. "Set him on the stretcher" He spoke before walking back into the building clearing some space for the new patient. "What exactly happened to him?"

Luster walked in before placing the battered  Pokemon on the bed, it nearly gave him déjà vu as he felt like he'd done this a hundred times with Ajax "Me and Rayne were out exploring and we saw him getting attacked by a group..."

Hush kneeled down to the shiny midnight Lycanroc and seeing the singed fur on his body along with a few cuts, along with a bruise which looked bad his left leg seemed the worst, than any other he had, "Hmm he may have fractured his arm if not then very badly sprain..." He said softly to himself.

"Can't you just whip up some cure for that? You always do it with us" Rayne said looking at Hush, yet he shook his head at this and turned back to the two after placing the Lycanroc's leg down gently on the bed.

"The difference there is that you and Luster are never this badly beaten... Hmm I'll wrap up his leg and anything else I see fit, he's more than likely going to be out for a while so come back tomorrow you two" Hush stated plainly to the two as he turned back to his current patient, Hush leaned down slipping off a bandana which was wrapped on his thigh and placed it on the table.

The two electric types nodded at his words and walked out of the structure, yet Luster glanced back to the injured Mon one last time before they walked away.

"The day flew by! suns already going down" Rayne said with a grin before looking back to Luster as she figured he'd be over his previous slump, yet he still had a glum look.

"Oh yeah, guess so heh..." he said putting a small smile on his face which seemed a bit forced and the Manectric knew it, but he couldn't help it as he got the same feeling he had with Ajax only a few hours prior.

"Luster come on you know there was nothing we could have done to help him we would have ended up like him or worse dead," she said to him as it was the truth and it earned a small sigh from luster as he knew it. "listen tomorrow we can go check on the guy I'm sure he'll be fine okay?"

The Luxray peered up to the Manectric before nodding as now all they could do was try to help the injured Pokémon "Yeah you're right Rayne!" he spoke as the negative tone he had before seemed to slowly be fading.

Rayne chuckled softly as Luster said this "Well it's already getting late I'm gonna head home catch ya tomorrow Lust" she said before, flashing him a grin and walking off towards the home she and her family lived in.

Luster smiled a bit before he glanced back to the direction of the house, he and his family lived in. He took a deep breath, before he began to walk slowly as he knew he'd probably get an ear full from his mother about the event with Ajax earlier.

The Luxray peered through the door not seeing anyone in sight, once he figured he was clear he walked in, using his tail to shut the door. "Whew..." He froze as he saw the figured of his mother, she was a Shiny Absol who's name was Elise.

"Oh...hey ma" Luster spoke with a nervous smile as he knew deep in his mind he was screwed and that he'd get Ajax for telling his mom was what happened, Ajax never meant to get his brother in trouble he just told Elise everything when she asked what had gone on and unfortunately it got the Luxray in a bad position.

"Lusterious I've told you, to not hurt your brother?" The Shiny spoke as her eyes glowed a deep Emerald to anyone else; it would have been beautiful, yet to Luster, he knew she was beyond furious with him, and the soft tone she had only made it all the more terrifying.

"It was an accident..! I know I shouldn't have hit him that hard but it was just training..." He spoke quickly as he kept his head bowed to the Absol yet she shook her head sighing softly.

"You and your father are one and the same when he was your age he'd always come back with some injury to show off...its funny and worrying at the same time" Elise spoke softly, her glare has seemed to dull as she recounted memories with her mate.

Luster smiled slightly, as he found the moments where his mother recounted her past even though they seemed a bit random it was always nice, yet he kept his mouth shut as he was already in trouble as is and he didn't want to upset his mother in any further way.

It took the Absol a few moments to snap out of her daydream, but when she did she looked up to her soon seeming to have a dark tint to her already red cheeks. "Just be careful with your brother please that's all I ask of you."

"Yes ma'am," The Luxray said as he'd gotten off easy this time compared to some of the other times. "Is dad gonna be home soon?" He asked with a curious tilt of his head.

"Yeah he should be any minute now, then we can eat dinner I made vegetable stew," Elise said as the guy door opened revealing a Luxray who was not as big as luster yet still quite large for one.

"Oh hello you two" The Luxray known as Lyndon said to his mate and son smiling all the while, yet he paused as he saw the way the two were positioned and chuckled softly as he handled these situations better than Elise. "What did he do this time?"

Luster couldn't help but laugh at how his father knew he'd done something, yet it was funny as his father wouldn't scream at him or punish him as at heart he was a big softy and never found the courage to hurt his family in any way, "It was nothing pops, me and Ajax were training earlier and I kinda hit him a bit too hard heh..."

Lyndon chuckled softly as he'd already heard this spill from luster, in fact, it was the third time this month, "As long as you didn't break any of his bones or kill him don't worry about it. Gotta keep training hi—" his words were cut off by his lovely wife.

Elise stomped her left front paw on the floor getting the both of the Luxray's attention. "I already told you Luster do not hurt your brother again or else" she said as her emerald eyes gleamed with her warning.

Lyndon had moved over to the Absol and nuzzled the side of her maw before licking her nose, "Calm down Hunny, they're just having fun out there let them be boys" He said throwing on the charm that was sure to sway her mood.

The Absol couldn't hold back the smile, "Luster go get your brother for dinner" She said with a soft giggle before licking the Lyndon's cheek, which turned into a kiss.

Luster walked away going to the back of the home where Ajax was fast asleep and it made him chuckle. "Wake up Jaxs!" He said loudly before sending a shock to the Luxio but it wouldn't hurt him just wake him up.

Ajax jolted awake looking around with a mixture of fear and confusion. "W-What!?" He shouted before looking up at his older brother sighing softly. "C...Can't you just wake me up normally..?"

"Nope, now come on mom had dinner ready," He said with a small smile as the part about dinner seemed to get the Luxio a bit excited.

"Then let's go!" He said his tail swaying back and forth before he hopped up and ran past the Luxray to the kitchen.

"Hey wait for me!" Luster exclaimed after his brother with a small grin before he followed him to the kitchen so they could eat dinner and end the night.
