With his legs spread wide he sat up breathing deep of the passing wind. The sun was still up for now but there were indigos and oranges beginning to splotch the skies.

At this point Sénon's reasoning was wavering from 'protect them at all costs' to 'getting a little hurt is good for them'.

They were a particularly unruly lot and today, they had company.

The nine out-numbered the three that were tasked to guard and herd them.

That wasn't to mention the ones the Mrs. had brought herself.

With this many babies about even a backyard picnic felt like a high stakes venture in the wild.

the situation was teetering on the edge of being chaotic, with an overabundance of infants and children running or hovering - in gastly's case - about. she had given their respective parents or guardians a moment's reprieve, deciding to arrange the picnic and ensure the little ones interacted with pokemon outside their immediate groups.

the word 'behave' had been uttered for what felt like the umpteenth time, cait's sharp-eyed gaze remaining trained upon the multiple little bodies scurrying and slithering about. she couldn't help but imagine their own little ones eventually joining the fray; her future children fated to be surrounded by pokemon of varying sizes and types.

"pearl."

pearl was growing everyday, both intellectually and physically. her mind had quickly sharpened, the pokemon still a child but more easily comprehending the world around her. cait signed a simple 'are you hungry' with her hands, the psychic-type giving a nod before responding with a 'yes' - her movements with her paws clumsy but impressively accurate.

until she could develop a proper mental link, the woman had decided to rely upon simple sign language so that communication could become a two-way street. pearl picked it up fairly quickly and had even taken to learning her letters and words, the psychic-type proving capable of making use of such knowledge.

cait retrieved a warm berry tart from a woven basket, pearl happily accepting and consuming the treat as she watched her playmates indulge in a tussle.

"they're going to grow up fast," she said. "drowzee only take two or three years to become fully-matured adults, if memory serves."

"Then you should enjoy your time with her while you have it." He watched Cait abuzz with focus and affection for what was clearly her favorite pokémon.

As a Ranger he encountered shiny pokémon more often than the average trainer. 'Pinkie' stuck out like a sore thumb struggling along the Jagged Pass all alone, the strong gusts made sand grains as pin pointed as micro-sized darts. Sénon was protected by layers of clothing and an established tolerance to pain.

The drowzee was just a baby.

She moved slow towards the wind because she didn't know any better, only that she was in pain in needed to find refuge. Game had merely been on his way to the Fiery Path for his weekly run when he heard her cries.

No matter how she wailed, no Drowzee nor Hypno came for her.

Her mother had either died or more likely, cast her aside because of her flesh-like shiny coloring, thinking her to be sickly and ill-fated.

It wasn't all bad though; she had a new mother and a new name and seemed to have taken to new her life quite well. For as long as he lived Sénon would never forget the look on Cait's face when he gave her the babe.

"By the time she's matured, you'll be doing this for human babies."

Tired of having to wrangle to his younger 'brothers and sisters' Terawr wandered over to the redhead and began to screech for attention and to be relieved of duty.

"we'll definitely have our hands full."

she envisioned what would come within the span of five years. if arceus was kind - her life would be idealistic. the pokemon babes who frolicked about would be in their adult forms; pearl likely evolving into a hypno that rivaled cait in height. her fiancee would be her husband, she'd have her career path fully forged and have a family of her very own.

"i scheduled an appointment with my doctor," she said. "i'm half-afraid that something may be wrong with me physically."

the woman adjusted herself to lean against him, finding comfort in how solid he felt.

"fernando sent me a message informing me that there were anomalies present within his system. and with bailey cooper dead because of the power she inherited, i'm worried i may be the next one... or that my body's been changed or adversely effected because of my gifts."

cait settles a hand over her stomach, her gaze lingering upon the children at play.

"if something happens to me i want to make sure you're all safe and happy, at the very least."

It was a strange thing in a relationship to encounter a concept or thought so repulsive you couldn't help but react to it with the intent to surgically remove it from your existence.

Who would've thought the thrill-seeker couldn't stomach the idea of being left alone to pick up the pieces. If Cait died, from his point of view, she'd be taking the best parts of him with her. There wouldn't be enough left of him to be counted on.

Losing her to life was fine and what they both cautiously expected in the beginning. Losing her to death was a reality he rejected entirely.

Terawr shook his head with vigor to remove the ranger's hand acting as a make-shift Tyrunt muzzle.

Scurry about as they might the babies didn't seem to move too far from base. It was all 'home' they were safe regardless but seemingly they remembered innately to stay close to those that protected them.

Not to mention Happiny seemed to be CHARMING the lot of them so they stayed gathered around her more or less.

"Are you worried because you have actual symptoms or did you just let Fernando get in your head?"

Wherever the loose threaded thought of her own immediate demise came from, he intended to cut it short.

his wording - while understandable - irked her somewhat. the man was becoming increasingly talented at placing fernando in a suspicious or negative light, delicately twisting his words so that he wasn't outright insulting the man.

"he just wanted to warn me that i may or may not have complications in the near or distant future."

she remained patient and sympathetic, aware that sénon didn't want to entertain the idea of her life potentially being cut short. cait didn't fancy it either - craving the future she could potentially share with her lover. even if they were to split apart in the years to come, it's likely they'd always be bound by their children.

"but it isn't just that. i'm afraid they'll find out about what rocket did to me. i want to tell fernando.... but i'm afraid he won't trust me anymore. i've worked for years to gain his respect and the possibility of losing it is terrifying."

she shut her eyes and released a shaky breath. pearl, sensing her adoptive mother's emotional downturn, poked at her arm. once she gained the woman's attention, the drowzee would break off a chunk of her tart and offer up the oozing piece.

"thank you, baby."

cait accepted it and pressed a warm kiss to the pokemon's forehead. she slipped it into her mouth, chewing slowly and swallowing it down as her gaze drifted skywards.

He took in her reasoning, staring at her back as she sat in front of him. His hands slipped under her shirt as he checked for her heartbeat, savoring the intimacy that allowed for that touch. "My hands are cold."

"If you think you might be risking your life under Cerebi's gifts." Back from under her shirt his hands found her shoulders and went about about a sensual grounding to knead out her stress and attune her focus on him. "I'll take that bet."

It was all evident in her own history and power, the pieces were all there.

"As a deity of time its my guess that Celebi knows your future, if your future is knowable. I'm of the opinion that if your life was on the line, if your destiny is to die for having this power Celebi would have told you. Why? Because knowing, you would still serve probably with more focus and dedication. It wouldn't have a reason not to tell you."

He took the concept of losing her quite seriously but this wasn't how it would happen. He had to stay vigilant against the real threats to what the two of them were building.

"What good would it do to reveal the details of the invasion?"

it was so easy to forget everything when he was by her side. she allowed herself a laugh, his hand pressed against her breast; fingers brushing against lace. he soon moved to massage her shoulders, seeking to soothe her. it only reminded her of how much she adored this man, the woman relishing in this moment of peace.

but a strange darkness that coiled within her depths throbbed, reminding her of the visions she had been stricken with in recent memory.

'chaos, betrayal and death.'

"there's a reason why celebi doesn't intervene or warn us of future events. intervention would result in deaths that were never meant to happen - in children that would never be born - in lives that... should not be saved."

cait lifts her hands and stares down at them, reminded of an image of herself stabbing someone in the back in a brutally efficient fashion.

she shut her eyes and turned to look upon pearl, who had already settled into a comfortable position at her side. it was obvious she intended to nap, the pokemon curled into a plump ball.

"looks like she's all tuckered out."

seeking to ease her way into a restful state, the woman sung softly - though her song was a mournful one. the lyrics held a deeper meeting than she intended, her clean hand rubbing gentle circles upon the the pokemon's flank.

It seemed those who dabbled in time had understandings of the boundaries of time travel and its paradoxes better than he did. "Well then I guess I take back what I said." Go figure.

"Still, I'm not willing to just throw my eggs in the basket that has you dying of some side effect of being a chosen one."

If mind truly was over matter he willed himself to will her to good health. "I reject that reality." The affirming confidence in his voice made it sound like he actually had a choice.

He kneaded life back into her as he broke down the stress in her shoulders and brushed his lips over the back of her neck.

The babies all were too young to understand the subtle undertones of their proximity but they were impressionable enough to watch the human couple and learn socializing and affection.

They were rubbing off good on the babies in terms of development. Good for the babies, better for them.

More practice before their inevitable little monster came into the world. Which, going off of how nice Cait smelled, could very well be this year.
