Ash and his friends had just returned from the tree of beginning an emotional wreck. Lucario had sacrificed himself to save the tree from sure destruction and saved Ash from suffering the same fate. Ash was currently sobbing in the room he was given for the night by the queen. "Why did you do it Lucario. If we both added our aura together then you would still be here" whispered Ash.
Pikachu approached his partner looking sad as well and tried to comfort his friend. "I just don't understand Pikachu." he added, rubbing his partner's head "He missed so much in his life and I wanted to bring him on or journey and show him the world." Ash cried. Pikachu nodded along, as he was just as sad as his trainer at what had occurred.
It was at this point someone knocked on his door. "Ash" a voice called out to reveal it was May, "Lady Ilene says that dinner is ready if you want to come down".
When no answer was heard May sighed and left Ash to his own devices. Nearly an hour later Ash's stomach grumbled and he was forced to go down to the dining area to get something to eat. "Ah nice of you to join us" Lady Ilene called, waving Ash over to the table.
The small tables from the festival were removed and instead a long rectangular table was placed in the middle of the room for everyone to sit at. All sorts of food was served on the table for the queen and her guests to partake in. Lady Ilene sat at the head of the table, her long pink gown nearly touching the floor. Ash had just taken notice of how beautiful the queen truly was. The siblings, May and Max sat on her left and were currently digging into the pasta and salad that was in front of them. On the queen's right were Kidd and Brock socializing and eating some soup and corn.
"How are you feeling Ash?" Ilene asked the trainer as he took a seat at the far end of the table.
"I'm getting a little better" Ash responded with a smile. However Brock and the Queen could tell that his smile was fake and that he was still depressed over what had happened.
"Well just dig in." whispered Ilene, as Ash nodded and followed the queen's advice. He began eating several of the delicious options on the table, slowly enjoying each dish instead on scarfing it down like his friends. The group was served water or juice as their choice of drink and Ash chose water. The boy took a large swig of the water and tasted something off about it.
"Hey guys does your water taste kind of funny?" he asked his friends who had taken both water and juice.
"Not at all Ash, why do you ask?" responded Max a little more sluggish than usual.
"It tastes kind of funny." he answered back, wondering if his water was the only one affected.
"Mine tastes fine too." said May as she slurred her speech and looked clearly out of it.
"May are you ok…" Ash was interrupted as the girl fell off her chair and dropped to the ground clearly unconscious.
"Oh my…" began Kidd, as she too fell off her chair into a slumber.
Max and Brock followed suit, leaving a now panicking Ash alone with Lady Ilene and her servant Jenny. "What have you done to my friends" he yelled at the queen.
The young lady held up her hand "They are merely asleep for their safety".
Ash stopped his rage and adopted a look of confusion on his face. "What do you mean?" he asked, curious about how this would keep his friends safe.
"Here follow me" Ilene called him over, standing up and motioning over towards the bookshelves.
"I can't just leave my friends here." protested Ash staying put in his chair.
"Don't worry Ash, I'm here to watch them." Jenny spoke up, assuring the trainer that his friends would be ok. With Ash calmed down and knowing his friends were safe he got out of his seat and with Pikachu by his side headed over to the bookcase with Ilene.
"Now I have something to show you." she comforted him, pulling a book on the shelf, which revealed a secret passage. "Follow me." she whispered, taking two flashlights off the shelf and giving one to Ash. The trainer gulped taking the flashlight and followed the queen into the cavern as the shelf closed behind them. "Now you might be wondering what we are doing here." Ilene talked softly.
"Yeah, I would love to know why my friends are drugged and unconscious in the dining hall." Ash snorted.
"It starts at the beginning of time with the birth of the tree of beginning." Illene began, shining her light on the wall, which was covered in paintings with ancient symbols. Ash did the same with his flashlight and could make out the drawings of the tree of beginning on the wall as well as several Lucario. "No one knows how the tree of beginning came to be, but what they do know is that it is a place to be treasured." the Queen continued. "Since the dawn of civilization Aura Guardians have risen up to defend the tree from those who wish to harm it and the people and Pokemon who live in this kingdom". "These guardians found the tree to be a source of peace and prosperity led by Mew. They would study how the tree functioned and eventually found it's secret." Ilene ended, as Ash seemed puzzled by this.
"What was the secret?" the trainer asked. Ilene stopped and gave Ash a ferocious glare.
"Do you think the kingdom of Rota would trust a secret like this to a trainer" she snorted.
"Oh I'm sorry I was just curious." Ash backtracked.
"There is only one way to tell you this information" Ilene sighed and dragged Ash towards a small altar with a symbol on it (the one on Sir Aaron's cape). "Place your right hand on the symbol an channel your aura into it before swearing an oath" the Queen explained.
"And what would this oath entail?" asked Ash.
"Just say; I Ash Ketchum swear to never reveal the secrets of the Aura Guardians to anyone as long as I live." came the reply.
Ash nodded and did just that resulting in the entire altar glowing blue for several seconds before going back to normal. "So what is the secret to the tree of beginning" he prodded the Queen.
"The Tree of Beginning is a rare plant whose true name has been forgotten over the course of history and as far as we know there are none left besides this one" Ilene began. "The seed of this tree was found and planted by those who were the precursors to the Aura Guardians. After several years, the seed grew exponentially and became the tree we know today." she finished the tale.
"They must have used a whole ocean to water it." joked Ash, who began to chuckle. He stopped when he noticed a dark look on the queen's face.
"That's the secret Ash. No tree could grow to that size without living off of water." she started. "The first Aura Guardians noticed that something was off about the tree as they sensed a disturbance with their aura. It was one fateful day several millennia ago that a group of guardians found out the horrifying truth" Ilene whispered.
"What is the truth?" asked Ash with baited breath.
"The truth is that the Tree of Beginning is more like the Tree of Death. It sucks the aura out of those with bad intentions and kills them to sustain itself".
"That can't be true." yelled a horrified Ash.
"It is, your friends told me about those things that attacked you in the tree and didn't hurt the Pokemon, well that is what they use to drain aura." she revealed. "The guardians wanted to destroy the tree when they found this out but they couldn't bring themselves to do it as it would have ruined the lives of countless Pokemon".
"So what did they end up doing?" the trainer asked, now on pins and needles.
"They decided to donate some aura to the tree once a week so that it wouldn't go after the civilians." came the explanation.
"Ok but what is problem" Ash continued to push for answers.
"Aura Guardians and the Kingdom of Rota were feared across the region and fed criminals and enemies alike to the Tree of Beginning. Other kingdoms started hunting Aura Guardians with no mercy and Rota's territory and the guardian population began shrinking. Because of this, the tree began to need more and more aura from non-guardians to sustain itself. Eventually it got down to just Sir Aaron and his Lucario". Ash was not saying a word, taking in what was being revealed quietly. "You already know how the story goes with armies returning home right" Ilene asked Ash who nodded in response as he had seen the scene in a time flower. "Well all our time flowers were altered and the truth is that the armies were sacrificed to power the tree" the queen finished.
Ash was horrified at this revelation, "How is the tree still alive if there are no more guardians to give aura?" he prodded.
"Since there are rarely any prisoners some civilians have sacrificed themselves to keep the tree going. My parents were the last ones to do so and that is why I took the throne at such a young age" Ilene revealed with tears streaming down her face.
Ash had one more question to ask "Is that what you plan on doing to my friends and Kidd".
"Only if they planned to harm the tree" came the teary response from the blonde.
"Why drug them though" he asked.
"They need to go under the purification ceremony to determine if they are innocent. We can't let anyone else from the outside world, they would come and destroy it and Rota no questions asked" she responded.
"I can see your point but why leave me out of it" questioned the trainer.
"Lucario showed us that you poses very similar aura to Sir Aaron and thus you physically are forced to not hurt the tree." she explained.
Ash nodded, "Can we at least head back to meet with my friends?" he asked.
"Of course, the ceremony should be over if your friends survived" Ilene took his hand and led him farther down the passage to a large chasm where a giant version of the altar from before was at the top of a step pyramid. The duo walked to the top where Jenny awaited them. "Do we have any guilty verdicts?" the queen asked her maid.
"Ash's friends are innocent and are currently resting in their rooms with their minds wiped" Jenny revealed.
"Wait what do you mean their minds are wiped" Ash growled, hoping they didn't screw with his friends.
"It's nothing serious, Mew just made it so they wouldn't remember what they saw in the Tree of Beginning." the maid explained.
"So they won't remember Lucario?" Ash asked, a bit upset at this.
"They will still remember what happened but the background knowledge will be replaced." Ilene explained walking over to the altar where there appeared to be a lever.
"If they are innocent then who is guilty?" Ash wondered aloud as Ilene pulled on the lever.
A grinding sound could be heard as part of the altar receded into the ground and a giant stone tablet rose. Ash gasped as Kidd was revealed to be covered in of the strange creatures that attacked them in the tree. Her entire body barring her nose and eyes was covered and bound to the stone and Ash could tell she was quaking in fear.
"Why is Kidd guilty." he roared out in protest but was silenced as Ilene put her hand up.
"Kidd was never on your side to begin with." Jenny began, "I'm sure you know that she is a famous explorer. Well she wanted to expose Mew and the Tree to the World" she ended pulling out several trackers and robots that Kidd had used during her stay in Rota.
"As I said before, if the rest of the world found out about what the tree really is then they would destroy it and capture all of the Pokemon it holds." added Ilene as she cupped Kidd's covered chin and stared directly into her eyes as the young lady shivered in fear. "Now you shall become one with the tree." she laughed.
Kidd began to scream and writhe in pain as her aura began to be absorbed by the creature. The explorer felt like her insides were on fire as the red body slowly moved upwards upon her eyes. Her screams were silenced by the red being, as the tablet's runes and drawings began to glow the light blue color of aura. Ash merely watched in contempt as he knew that Kidd had tried to sneak around while they were in the tree and felt she deserved this fate.
Five minutes later the creature disappeared along with Kidd as the tablet receded back into the ground. "Now then, what do you say we get back to dinner" Ilene smiled, walking back to Ash and taking his hand.
"Do you really expect me to go back and eat after seeing all of this?" he asked rather sarcastically.
"Of course silly, how else will I get to know you better." she laughed pulling him back to the tunnel where they eventually ended up back at the dining hall.
Once they were there, the two of them resumed their dinner in peace, laughing and telling each other more about themselves. It was during this time where Ash started to become very attracted to Ilene and her looks. The duo eventually finished their meal and Ilene once again took Ash by the hand. "Will you walk me back to my room?" she asked.
"Of course, anything for my queen." he responded, leading her down the hall and up the stairs. "We are here my lady." bowed Ash, as the two of them arrived outside of the queen's room.
"Ash please come inside, I have to show you one more thing tonight" Ilene whispered and pulled him inside.
"What do you have to show me" Ash murmured, nearly gasping at how beautiful the queen looked in the moonlight.
"This." She responded and placed a small kiss upon Ash's lips. Ash was stunned at this action and could only ask why. "Because your really cute and the kingdom needs more people to donate their aura to the tree." She explained.
"Is that all I am to you, a battery." he yelled.
"No you are much more than that. You are a man that would sacrifice his life to save other Pokemon in need and one that is handsome, kind and worthy of being king of Rota." she tried calming him down as his aura spiked, surrounding the trainer in a blue light.
"Will I still be able to compete in the battle frontier?" he asked Ilene, his aura starting to recede.
"Of course, but you will return here afterwards so that I may teach you how to act like a noble ruler." she laughed.
Ash now calm approached the Ilene and grabbed her face "If that is what you wish my lady" he answered and engaged the queen in a passionate kiss.
The two of them moan out loud as their tongues battle for dominance as Ash pushed her against the wall. Ash eventually overwhelmed the queen and pushed their tongues into her mouth before intertwining once more. With a loud gasp, the two of them broke apart to catch their breath. "I'm glad my new husband seems to be experienced in the ways of romance" Ilene said as she began to remove Ash's jacket and shirt.
"I had a girlfriend when I traveled through Kanto and Johto (referring to Misty) but we never got serious" he revealed, kissing down his lady's jawline and neck as he began removing her dress.
Illene moaned at this action and removed the rest of his garments leaving him nude. Looking down as Ash got rid of her dress she saw his semi-hard cock that was at least six inches at the moment. She had read texts about how much stamina Aura Guardians had and was looking forward to see if Ash possessed it. "Your title is not just for show, you truly are the most beautiful in all the land." Ash complimented the queen, cupping her chin with his hand.
"You flatter me too much." She laughed, attacking Ash and resuming their make-out session. She leapt into his arms and the two of them plopped onto the king's sized mattress with Ilene straddling Ash.
"What do you say we turn things up a notch." she asked, flipping herself around so that her glistening snatch was in her lover's face.
She received an answer as Ash began to poke her folds with his tongue. The young lady responded by taking hold of the young man's penis and running her hands along the shaft to stimulate growth. Ash moaned as his cock grew to a size the queen found to be desirable and lowered her head to his tip. With a quick movement, she engulfed the entire phallus into her mouth and down the length of her throat.
"Ileeeenee," Ash cried out into his lover's vagina from pleasure, as his member was coated by her saliva.
The young man let his tongue out of his mouth and began to lick the folds of the women who held him. The queen quivered from this and began to bob up and down at a slow pace in the hope of stimulating her lover to have an orgasm before she did. The two battled for a few minutes but Ash fought harder and drove his fleshy tongue deep into the woman's core. With a loud squeal, the women squirted some nectar into Ash's mouth. The trainer enjoyed the exquisite flavor of his lover's liquid but it drove him over the edge and began firing his white essence down Ilene's throat. The queen began to gag slightly as her mouth filled up with Ash's delicious cum. It eventually became too much and excess amount came out of her mouth and onto her breasts.
The duo broke apart from each other to catch their breath, with Ilene letting go over her lover's member with a loud pop. After a minute of ragged breaths, Ash finally had the strength to speak up. "Should we move on to the main event my queen?" he asked the blonde who had spun around to face him.
"Yes my dear, I want you to fuck me so bad that you give us heirs to help with the tree" she pleaded, straddling the young man and lowering herself down to the point where his hardened member reached her barrier.
"With pleasure." came the simple response, as Ash thrust upwards and tore right through the young maiden's hymen.
Ilene let out a hiss in pain as a small amount of blood trickled onto the sheets of the bed. After several minutes the pain dissipated and she signaled that it was ok for Ash to move around. As the trainer beneath this began to comply, Ilene started grinding her hips into the man's pelvis. This action allowed his dick to penetrate deeper and deeper into her snatch giving the queen much needed sexual relief. Ilene lowered her face to Ash's and began to kiss him on the lips both slowly and passionately. Ash was in no position to deny this and wrapped his hands around his lover's ass as she did the same to his neck. The trainer moaned in pleasure as the blonde woman placed kisses along his neck and jawline until she reached his ear. It was at the this point the trainer raise one of his hands and took hold of one of Ilene's breasts, giving it a few soft squeezes and causing the woman to let out a soundless scream. The young maiden responded with a few small nibbles to the man's ear and followed it up by doing the same to the other side with only the sounds of moans and flesh smacking could be heard in the room. These actions continued on for nearly a half hour before the queen broke the pattern.
"Ash my love, I'm at my limit." she wheezed out, tired from their current romp.
"Ok dear just bare with me, I'm almost there." he replied as his queen nearly went limp on top of him.
Ilene's walls used the last of their strength to clamp down on Ash's member to get any essence it could. With a loud roar the aura user fired his seed into the Rota native's womb. The sensation of the white substance stinging her sacred place was too much for the queen and she began to fall forward. Ash reached up to support her and found that she was already out cold, driven over the edge from sexual pleasure. Ash continued firing his semen into Ilene and eventually filled her up completely.
"That was wonderful" he whispered to the blonde, whose head was now on his chest. "I look forward to doing this more in the future", with that he too drifted into the blissful state of sleep.
5 Years Later
After that fateful night Ash and Ilene became synced together. She allowed the trainer to finish the Battle Frontier and afterwards he returned just in time to prevent a catastrophe. Kidd's manager had wondered what had happened to his client and put a team together to try and find her. In doing so they came to Rota and tried to force the queen to give them answers. In turn they almost discovered the secret of the tree but Ash got back just in time. Before he parted Ilene had given Ash a Riolu egg to raise during his travels. She had hoped the two could learn about their aura together and become partners like the aura guardians of legend. Ash had returned with a full-grown Lucario and the two of them mercilessly executed the trespassers save for Kidd's manager, who they fed to the tree. Ilene was frantic as Jenny checked for the health of her baby who was revealed to be Ash's. The child, a boy was born a few weeks later and named Aaron after the legendary guardian.
Five years later Aaron was currently playing with a Riolu of his own at the Tree of Beginnings while his parents watched. The kingdom of Rota had spread its influence and now encompassed a wider range of territory than before, slowly returning to its past glory. This was all thanks to Ash, who had become the Battle Frontier champion.
"Ilene my love, should we head back to the castle" Ash asked his wife.
"Yes, we need to start preparing the little one's room" she responded rubbing her belly, which revealed that she was once again pregnant.
Ash called his son over and the family started their walk back. It would only be a few months before a new aura guardian would enter this world and things were only going to get better for the Kingdom of Rota.
