"Ah, she has become stronger. But not strong enough. I wonder what she will do when Gray comes back. For that matter.. what will I do?" Sitting down Jacob couldn't really decide one way or the other. He felt comfortable in this form. More comfortable as the days went by. "Ah.. what to do Regice?"

'I don know. I say you do what you want for now. Deal with the consequences later.' The little Pokemon floated about. Turning to light it entered into Jacob and rested.

"Ah, what to do? Gues all work on my movement abilities more." Standing up Jacob used Agility. Reaching into the bag a sword was pulled out. "Sword Dance!" Jacob moved about as if dancing. As the sword cut into the ground Jacob momentum increased. Sword Dance has activated again and pushed to the limit. An hour later, Jacob feel exhausted. Looking down he saw his ankle was bruised. "Great I overdid it again. It is gonna suck getting back."

"Bwoom," a Gateway opened up and Gray walked out.

"Ah, the air is defintely different here." Stretching to the sky Gray was surprised to see a young woman rubbing there ankle. "Hey, you ok?"

'Uh yes, I am fine." Jacob looked over at felt his heart race. "I am doing just fine G.." She started to say but stop when Gray had pulled out a salve from his bag.

"That looks really bad. I can treat if you want?" Looking at her, Gray waited for her response. She shook her head yes and he went to work. After he spread the swelling went down quickly. He then put a wrap over it when he saw the skin showed a few cuts. "Putting away the gloves he looked at her. "You should be fine in a day or so. If it hurts anymore go to a doctor. Do you have a vehicle nearby?"

"No, my friends are just a bit that way." Jacob pointed to the distance. Gray turned and saw a rest stop not too far away. "I will be able to make it in no time."

"Nonsense. Let me help you." With that Gray picked her up and looked that way towards the rest stop. "Fwoosh" he and the woman were gone.

-Back with the others. A little time before Gray returned.-

Most of them spent the day in frustration and anxiety. The next day something finally changed. Sabrina spoke at the breakfast table.

"Gray will be back in half a day or so," Sabrina said with her eyes no longer glowing. "Future Sight drains me way too much. It doesn't help Gray is hard to predict." Leaning back she felt a calm come about herself.

"That is good to hear," Brock said as he set the table. "But what will the rest of you do now?"

"I will travel with Gray." Said Sabrina. "I like you guys and I believe I can call you friends but.." Sabrina twiddles her thumbs before she sighed. "Ahh if I have to choose Gray over you guys I will choose Gray. It is just more fun with him somehow. I am sorry."

"No need to apologize," Ash said as he threw a few berries in his mouth. "As long as we can part as friends I am happy."

June looked to Misty. "What about you?"

"I think.. I honestly dont know." Her Suicune looked at her.

'I have an idea to solve that problem. We should fight him. I want to fight him! You want to fight him. We can prove to him and everyone that we can take care of ourselves.' Suicune transmitted to her.

"Are you sure that is wise?" Misty asked a little afraid. "He already said we can take care of ourselves." She wanted to fight Gray especially since fighting near him had caused her to remember a little. But it was small amounts that she didn't notice till now. Now that he wasn't around again. "I think fighting will help."

"Fighting who?" Gray said appearing with Jacob in his hands. "Also can anyone tell me why this person smells like Jacob? Where did Jacob go by the way?"

"That is Jacob." Said June with a grin. "Where have you been these last few days anyway?"

"Traveling having fun?" Gray looked at the person called Jacob and leaned in. "Sniff, sniff, sniff." Gray shook his head feeling like a prank was being played on him. "This is a female. Jacob is a male. Oh, wait this must be his sister that would make sense."

"No, it's me, Jacob. My sister hair color is different than mine. I tried to say earlier before you offered to help me." Squirming in his hands the person call Jacob wanted to get free but also wanted to snuggle closer. Her head felt fuzzy. "I am kind of a female now. What do you want me to do to prove it to you? You can check my pants if you dont believe me!" Before she changed her mind Gray had unzipped her pants and peeked inside. His psychic power held her up.

"Huh, no d.i.c.k so... that's just... hmm oh wait." Gray then zip the fly back up and sent his aura all over the body. "You really are Jacob. And your a female. That is pretty neat." Staring at the completely red face Jacob, he realized she was really cute. "Your cute lips are chapped."

"I.. I .." Jacob managed to just stutter from embarra.s.sment.

A black blur shot pa.s.sed everyone and tackled Sabrina. It was Midnight. 'Where is she?'

"She who?" Sabrina asked puzzled. "Do you mean Espeon?" Midnight nodded his head rapidly. Sabrina just pushed the little Pokemon off her. "Ask nicely."

"Please, may I see her? I miss her very much. I have much to show her." Midnight talked at a rapid pace as he placed his head at Sabrina's feet. "If you let me see her I will tell you about the dream boss had about you for the past month."

"Oi you little brat!" Gray said. Sabrina smirked and released Espeon.

'h.e.l.lo Midnight.. you .. you... look nice.' Espeon transmitted. Her eyes went wide as she took him in. She was planning on just giving him a small compliment but that went out the window. Espeon circled around him and sniffed. "Sniff, sniff, sniff. What a powerful scent you have now. You dont look unsure of yourself anymore. More battle-hardened. What did you go through?' Her tail wrapped around him, as she walked away from everyone.

Gray then released Pyron who immediately flew off. He knew Gray was angry at him still. He wanted to take this time to report on what happened to a messenger Spearow.

Gale was released next. She immediately glared at Jacob who was in Gray's arms. "Who are you?"

"Its Jacob," Gray said before chuckling. "Hehe give her a sniff." Gale did just that. Shaking her head in wonderment the Scyther didnt know what to think. Perched on Gray's shoulder Clyde just took everything in.

"Gray how could you!" Said an angry Sabrina. It wasn't a question. More of a statement.

"I had permission. So chill out already." Gray then noticed her hair. "Hey, you got a hair cut. It looks different. I like the long hair look better. But that looks.. well different."

"She was just teasing you. I dont think she means it." June said. 'He definitely has not changed much. It should be easy to tell him some things then.'

"Eh, I dont believe that," Gray said grinning. "I think she did. It's not like he or she doesn't know my personality already. I am not good with jokes or sarcasm. You all know that." He gave Jacob a squeeze. "You are soft like snow. Is that because of your ice aura or something else?"

"My skin itself. My.. my.. ice aura helps me stay clean from sweat. You remember when we trained the other day?"

"Oh yeah, that's right. My bad it's been a few weeks cause of the dungeon. Ow a few months? I did not pay attention to much." Gray gave Jacob another squeeze. "Oh, I have a present for you."

"That is not an excuse Gray." Said Sabrina. "You just cant..."

"Of course I can," Gray said not paying her much attention. He was trying to remember where he left the gift. "If she doesn't like it, she will tell me. It's what the others did. Not everybody is a prude like you. Well no that's not the right word. Innocent or inflexible maybe."

'A present.' Jacob thought to himself. 'Wonder what it is?'

"You have to be mindful of your surroundings. Just acting how you want is.." Brock started to say.

"Exactly what I am about. I learned while in that dungeon," Gray squeezed his hands gripping Jacob a little too strongly "restraining myself could get me killed." Gray said staring at the man. "Besides, Elite Trainers deal with worse situations. I rather not act two face. s.h.i.+t can get confusing or I end up screwed over like some people."

"Gray could you at least try to see it from our point of view," Ash said.

Gray listened to them for a few minutes. When he felt that they didn't change at all in the last few days for them and the last month or so for himself, he realized there would always be a problem.

"I made a mistake coming back," Gray said. He forgot he was still holding Jacob. "Sorry about that. Your just so soft. Remind me of my favorite pillow."

"That isn't true!" Jacob said. "Eh a pillow?"

"You are overthinking things, Gray," June said. "Just listen to reason and.."

"Right, screw you guys I am out of here." Putting Jacob down he turned away. "Later!" Gray started to teleport but was forced to stop.

"Gray fight me first," Misty said. She was standing right behind him fused with Suicune. Her aura broke no argument about what she wanted to do. "Fight me with everything you have. Don't hold back as you did with Ash. Fight me with the intent to kill."

"Oh, you sure about that." Gray turned to her and put his hands in his pocket. He flexed his physic energy breaking free from her aura entirely. "You have gotten strong Misty. But I am not good at holding back. I just held back against him not to kill him in front of his wife and you."

"You talk like you would have won if I went all out!" Ash said.

"Gray you cant fight all out and kill people. It is against the law!" Brock said trying to calm the situation.

"Not between Elite Trainers. Not once they have there first badge." He looked at Ash and shook his head at him. "You didnt have yours at the time. Matter of fact, you still dont. I can tell." Gray had checked again with a quick look.

"I would have still won!" Ash said. "If I was serious!"

"Hmm, we will never know brat of Arceus," Gray said sinisterly towards Ash. He then looked to Misty. "I will not be able to hold back you understand this yes? The Suicune should have informed you as well."

"Wait Gray we are still talking. And why cant you hold back against her?" Ash asked.

"His blessing from Arcanine won't allow it." June smiled and looked at Gray. "I want to talk to you later. I figured some things I out that I want you to know."

"I bet you did." Gray just blinked at her and looked back at Misty. "You ready then I take it." Growlithe and he fused immediately afterward. "PokeFusion." He said calmly with a slight chill in the air.

There was no fire, just dark energy circling around Gray's fused state. He kept the fire in check and made himself more dark based.

"Shall we prove who is top dog? A fusion of a Pokmon that pushed its strength to the top or a Pokemon fusion born with power." Gray's voice came out with a dark edge to it. A smell travelled in the air that was unmistakeable to beast and now bird pokemon because of Gray.

It was bloodl.u.s.t. Misty felt her self s.h.i.+ver. Her desire to fight amplifying.

"This is what I want." Misty voice came out chillingly. Ash and Brock felt a s.h.i.+ver down their spines. This was a side a Misty they had never seen before. The confidence yes, but the coldness.. it was new and scary. 'I can feel my memories coming back even more so now. How strong did you get in the dungeon Gray?'
