**Pewter City -- Outside**<br/><br/>Samuel noticed the strange form wandering aimlessly in the dark. It certainly appeared to be Gary, but in the darkness it was impossible to tell. The fact that the person--if that's what it really was--had a tail was also another sign that it was not his grandson. Gary, no matter how strange a mood he was in, would not don a tail. Especially not one so realistic. Samuel began having a strange hunch that the creature was actually a monster, and one with rather unique abilities at that. He tried to remember some of the new pokedex information he'd received from trainers he'd recently sent to Unova, including Charity.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, he was having a difficult time of it.<br/><br/>In the meantime, another shadow went unnoticed--by him at least. No doubt the sharp and well-trained eyes of Alphonse would catch sight of movement in the dark, paralleling the path of himself and the professor, albeit occasionally disappearing behind trees or buildings.<br/><br/>The group slowly came up on the hotel, where light from the glass doors poured onto the street. It was a temporary safety, if only for a moment. But skillful warriors like Al would surely know that it was not an absolute guarantee that they'd all be safe, even once inside.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>**Pewter City -- Hotel**<br/><br/>"I think I will."<br/><br/>The warm, seductive whisper flowed like warm honey into Gary's ears. In one smooth movement, Charity actually pushed away from him, and began gently sliding off the tightly form-fitting garment down past her hips. The elastic panties bunched at the peak of her hip bone, then snapped loose and slid smoothly all the way down her legs, where they fell around her ankles and she blithely kicked them away.<br/><br/>Now, completely bare, the sensuous curves of the woman's body and the smooth, light olive-tan of her skin spoke for themselves. She was slender, though hardly super model material. Certainly none of her ribs were showing, and she was not petite. She was, however, well-trim, and uniquely muscular in a manner that revealed just how much exercise she got from her field research and life as a pokemon trainer.<br/><br/>It was not an easy job.<br/><br/>Over most of her body was a delicate sheen, probably lotion that she wore to keep her skin young. It certainly didn't do her a disservice.<br/><br/>((Savant, I looked at your profile, but didn't see that you'd put in any Ons/Offs. So I'll just ask ahead of time, in case this ever comes up: Do you have any interest in watersports?))
