A Little Less Conversation

Nidoqueen TG TF Request

A loud noise from somewhere on the lower level shook the entire house, causing a mass shudder. Although it was reduced a small amount for the upper level, it was more than enough to awaken Sam. He lifted himself from the bed he laid on and looked around in confusion and drowsiness. Yawning, Sam knew that he wouldn't be able to go back asleep, as he threw the thick blankets to the side of the bed.

"God dammit, Johnny! Look at what your Growlithe did!" Said the muffled voice of Sam's father.

"Sorry! He's been really hyper this morning and I have no idea why." Johnny (Sam's younger brother) said in a saddened voice.

Sam yawned once again as he slid his legs to the side of the bed and stood up on the ground. He shuffled towards the window to take a look outside. The skies of Kanto were clear of any clouds as the morning sun shined brightly in the horizon. Sam knew it was still rather early in the morning, but with all the activity going on downstairs, he knew that sleeping wasn't going to happen any time soon.

Closing the window curtains, Sam made his way over to his dresser. He kneeled down and opened the bottom drawer, pulling out a pair of blue jeans and boxers. He then quickly went to his closet and yanked a plain red shirt off a hanger. Sam snatched a towel hanging off a chair and proceeded to exit his room.

The moment he stepped into the hallway, Sam's nose was filled with the smell of breakfast itself. However, he planned on taking a shower first before eating. He quickly made his way down the hall and into the bathroom to get washed up and ready for his day. After about twenty minutes, Sam exited the bathroom; clean and dressed. His stomach seemed to moan to Sam that he was hungry.

"Hey Sam! Guess what?" Johnny said the moment Sam made his way down the staircase.

"What?" Sam said, still slightly tired.

"Nothing!" Johnny said, giggling.

"You and your random nature." Sam said, walking into the kitchen.

"Good morning, Sam. Sleep alright?" Sam's father said, holding a coffee mug in his right hand while sitting on a chair.

"Yeah. I was planning to get more sleep but it looks like Johnny prevented that from happening. What the hell did his Growlithe do this time?" Sam asked while he went to the counter to grab a plate.

"Ah, he just knocked over that big lamp in the living room. I would tell him to play with that thing outside, but then Kelly would bitch at me for not letting him have his fun."

"I don't understand why mom allows that Pokémon inside. Did she not realize the torn up couch from two days ago?"

"She did. But, for some reason, she's fine with it. I never understand her sometimes. And if I try to punish Johnny, I get bitched at."

"Yeah. I remember last week when James was over here, he left because mom was screaming at you for sending Johnny to his room. Good thing we trained before it happened. Things would have been awkward if it were the other way around."

"Indeed. Hey, before you sit down, turn the TV on. I wanna watch the news."

Sam had gotten food on his plate during the conversation with his father. He placed his plate on the table and reached over to the small TV sitting on the counter and pushed the power button. In a blink, the television set turned on to the news channel. Sam made his way back to the table and sat down on the chair. While enjoying his breakfast, he looked up at the TV to see the daily news.

"...Good morning, Kanto. I am Rebecca Zeinaman of KNN, here to give you the latest news going on in the Kanto region. In latest news, Ryan Anderson of Fuchsia City has vanished seemingly overnight. We now go to David, who is on the scene now." The camera swapped over to a man inside a home.

"Thank you, Rebecca. The parents of Ryan have told KNN that he was supposed to return last night at 11:00PM. However, when it was well past that time, the parents began to grow worried about their son. They decided to go out and search for him at around 4:30 this morning. They told KNN that he was exploring Route 15 for Pokémon to catch, but he never returned. When investigators arrived on the scene, they were disturbed at the sight of a pile of torn clothing. Oddly, a Nidoqueen was very close to the scene of where it happened. To make matters even stranger, a strange blue plant was found near the base of a tree. The Nidoqueen was quickly sent to the Safari Zone. Investigators are still looking into the whereabouts of Ryan, hoping to bring him back him to his parents. Back to you, Rebecca."

"Well, David. I sure hope they find the missing boy soon. In other news..."

"Holy fuck. I know Ryan Anderson. He was that one kid that came by here that one time asking for extra Poke Balls. Never got to know him very well though." Sam said, finishing up his food.

"You and James should go and check it out." Sam's father said.

"That's not a bad idea. Things have been pretty boring here in Lavender Town anyways. It sucks living in a town iconize as death."

"Well, when you're 18 you can move out."

"True. Well, I know what I'm doing today. I'll go and call up James." Sam said, getting up from the table.

He went over to the sink and placed his plate in it. Turning around, Sam quickly left the kitchen and darted up the staircase. Sam entered his room and went over to his bed and picked up his phone from a nearby table. His fingers quickly danced around on the touch screen and proceeded to enter Jame's number. Sam sat down at the foot of his bed as the buzzing tone of the phone rang out.

"Hello?" Came the voice of James from the other end.

"What's up, James?" Sam said.

"Oh hey man. Nothing much. Basically just woke up."

"Hey, I'm fucking bored right now. And I know something that we can both do."

"And what might that be?"

"I heard on the news about Ryan Anderson going missing. I wanna check it out."

"Doesn't he live in Fuchsia City?"

"Yeah. It's not that far away. Both of our bikes are in working condition. We can probably train as well."

"Sounds fine by me. My mom is being  a total bitch right now. I need to get out of the house for a while."

"Same here. Meet me by my house in a few minutes?"

"Sounds good. I'll be there."

"Alright. See ya in a bit." Sam ended the call, quickly shoving his phone into his pocket.

Sam went over to his dresser and grabbed a PokeBall containing his beloved Charizard in it. Darting out of his room, Sam made his way down the stairs and headed towards the front door. He looked out the side window and saw that James hadn't arrived yet. Sam quickly tied on his shoes and walked through the front door onto his front porch.

He was instantly greeted by a soft warm wind and bright sunlight. Sam always thought that a nice summer day such as this was a perfect day for him. Not too hot, calm breeze, and a good friend to hang out with. He grinned as he quickly made his way to his garage and got his bike out. Just as he move it outside, he saw that James was coming down the road on his bike. His rather long hair was flailing wildly as he rode. Sam got on his bike and quickly caught up to James as they began to make their way to Route 15.

"So, what's going on with you?" Sam asked as he rode.

"Nothing much. Jessica keeps boasting about how she got that stupid Ginger. I think that thing has something against me." James said back.

"What do you mean it has something against you?"

"It hates me! he's always pulling shit on me. Last week, he got this great idea of playing ghost in the graveyard. He was hiding in my closet, making noise. When I got up to check it out, he fucking jumped out at me and tackled me. Oddly, he hugged me and then ran off into my sister's room."

"Wow. I'm having the same problem as well. Johnny's stupid Growlithe is annoying. He never keeps it contained and it always breaks things. I was awakened by it this morning."

"Why is it always so hyper? That's something I want to know."

"It's a long story."

"Tell me. It'll eat up the time to get to where we're going."

"Fine. About a month ago, me and my brother were heading home from me helping him get his first Pokémon. We came over a hill, and we saw Lavender Town in sight. As we made our way down the road, we saw two trainers battling along the hillside. Interested, me and Johnny watched them battle.

"One of the trainers had a fierce looking Arbok and the other one had a confident looking Growlithe. The one with the Arbok looked a lot older than the other one. They were going at it pretty good, but the trainer with the Arbok seemed to have the upper hand in the battle. The trainer with the Growlithe looked really pissed off; like red faced pissed off. Johnny and I looked at each other both knew that something bad was about to happen.

"The moment we turned back to the battle, the Arbok lashed out at the Growlithe. It sunk its fangs into Growlithe and poisoned it. Suddenly, the trainer screamed out in rage and began yelling at the Growlithe, calling it useless and worthless. He took out a Poke Ball that I assumed to be Growlithe's and smashed it into the ground. It broke into a million pieces. By now, the trainer with the Arbok had returned his Pokémon and was just awkwardly staring at the furious trainer.

"Now this is where it gets deep. In his rage, he KICKED the Growlithe into a nearby tree as hard as he could and ran down the path, furious. Johnny, the Arbok trainer, and I were in total shock. We all rushed over to the badly injured Pokémon to help it. The poor fella was hardly breathing, and was on the verge of death. Trust me, when you're in a situation like this, shit gets really intense.

"I noticed that it had a deep cut in its left foreleg. A lot of blood was pouring out of it, not to mention that the marks where the Arbok bit it were bleeding as well. And on top it all, the poor guy was poisoned. We all knew that this guy wasn't going to make it unless he got some serious medical attention.

"Johnny got a blanket out from his backpack and handed it to the Arbok trainer. He wrapped the Growlithe in it carefully and picked him up off the ground. I was disturbed at the sight of a large puddle of blood on the ground where the Growlithe was. The three of us quickly made our way back into town and hauled ass to the Pokémon Center, making quite a scene in the process.

"I pushed everyone aside and scrambled to the counter. I told the nurse what happened and she quickly took the Growlithe from the Arbok trainer. She removed the blood covered blanket and placed the dying Pokémon on a stretcher. A Chansey pushed the stretcher down a hallway to another room.

"While they were fixing up Growlithe, I thanked the Arbok trainer for his help. And I also thanked Johnny for his quick thinking. Whoever knew a six year old kid could pull something like that? Anyways, we waited at the Pokémon Center for a painfully long time. All three of us wanted to know if that Growlithe would make it.

"After what seemed like forever, the nurse came back from the room to tell us the fate of the Pokémon. She smiled, and said that the Growlithe made a full recovery. I felt a huge wave a relief come through me when I heard her words. She told us that since its original Poke Ball was busted, they gave us a specially designed Poke Ball to keep it in. At that moment, it was time to decide who got it.

"I instantly insisted that the Arbok trainer had it, but he told me that he already had enough Pokémon to handle. I didn't need a Growlithe, so I looked at my brother. I was hesitant at first because I thought he should catch a Pokémon on his own, but with one being given to him, I don't see why not. The nurse gave the Poke ball containing the Growlithe to Johnny.

"When we got home, I told my parents what happened. They were really shocked on what went down. Johnny was happy with Growlithe, considering it turned out to be really hyper. They go together really well. But still, they can be really annoying sometimes."

"Wow, that's fucked up. Did you ever ask the Arbok trainer where he was from?" James asked.

"No. He was in a hurry from the looks of it. But yeah, that's my story. Hey, it looks like we're here." Sam said, pointing to a sign that said Route 15.

James and Sam slowed down and slowly made their way down the road. After a few minutes of looking out for strange signs, Sam pointed to the left and saw a group of people exiting the woods. They had semi-formal clothing on; appearing to be some of the investigators from the news. As the two boys approached the group of people, they were instantly greeted by mean looks from the group.

"What are you kids doing here?" A man in a trench coat asked, stepping to the front of the group.

"We heard what happened on the news. We just wanted to check it out." Sam said.

"There's nothing to see here. Go away!" The man said in a stern tone.

"Why? You're hiding something, aren't you?" James said in a cocky tone.

"No we're not. Now, you kids run along and whatever you do, don't go down that path." The man said as the group walked towards the direction of the city.

As they walked away, Sam looked down the path that they came from. He knew that there was something that they didn't want him to see. Sam wanted to know what they were trying to hide. A smirk formed on his face as he put his bike up against a tree; James doing the same thing.

"Dude, I don't think we should. They seemed pretty serious." James said, looking at Sam with a concerned face.

"Don't be such a wuss. This will be fun." Sam said.

James thought for a moment. "You know, I'm kinda hungry. I'm going to head into town and get something to eat. You want anything?"

"Just a cola." Sam said.

"Alright, I'll be back in a bit. Be careful, bro." James said as he got back onto his bike and road off towards town.

"What a wimp." Sam said out loud as he began to walk down the path.

As Sam walked down the path into the woods, he felt more curious on what the group of people were doing. Suddenly, something caught Sam's foot as he quickly face planted onto the dirt. Moaning, Sam looked behind himself and saw that he tripped on loose yellow tape labeled with the word "Do not cross". He smirked, as he stood back up on his feet and continued down on the path.

Within a few minutes of walking, Sam entered the area in which he saw on the news. He saw the footprints of people's shoes on the ground and wrappers from candy bars. The torn pile of clothing was gone, but the spot where it laid was still there. However, there was something else that caught Sam's eye, as he walked over to a nearby tree and kneeled down on the ground.

His eyes gazed upon a strange blue plant, the same plant spoken of in the news. It had a smooth appearance and a strange texture to it. The veins of the leaves seemed to glow in a bright blue color. Interested, Sam picked a leaf off the plant and inspected it further by holding it in the sunlight cutting through the trees.

Suddenly, a sharp stabbing feeling started up on his hands. Sam retaliated by quickly letting go of the leaf, which oddly stopped the pain as soon as it started. In confusion, Sam shook both of his hands in an attempt to stop the slight throbbing. However, it continued. He looked closer at his hands, holding them in the sunlight, and what he saw happening made him wide eyed.

The tone of his skin on his hands slowly began shifting from a human white to a pale blue scaly look. Sam simply held his hands out in shock as they fully turned blue. Suddenly, a series of loud pops and snaps began to emit from his hands as they began to deform and change shape. They both began to widen and grow in overall size, reducing his fingers to simple nubs.

While his hands began to bulge up, more snapping noises began coming from Sam's fingers as they began to change. He felt the bones in his thumbs and pinkies merge into the bones in his hands, leaving only three fingertips visible. The remaining tips turned white, loosing every bit of detail on them. They all hardened, and then grew out slightly into a point, as Sam's fingers became claws.

"What is going on?!" Sam said out loud as he looked at his new claws.

Sam watched in horror as the blue scales began to make their way up both of his arms. As they climbed up his arm, he felt the bones in his arms begin to widen. Sam's lower arms began to widen to the same width as his hands, leaving no visible separation between the two. Sam's upper arms quickly widened with his lower arms. Breathing heavily, Sam felt the muscles in both of his arms bulk up, giving him much more strength.

Before Sam could do anything, he heard the sound of his shirt sleeves tearing. Looking at his shoulders, he saw a thick patch of blue skin form on both of his shoulders. Sam felt the blue scales beginning to form on his chest and back. Using his claws, he tore his shirt off to be able to observe the changes. He saw and felt the blue scales growing on his front and back side. Cream colored scales grew on each side of his chest in a circular shape.

Gasping, Sam suddenly felt a certain something on his body vanish. Something that told him his gender. However, it was gone and was replaced that told him the other gender, making Sam become it. Blushing, Sam began to get an idea on she was becoming. She looked down as she felt the pains throbbing on inside of herself.

Suddenly, a sharp pain erupted out of her back and front side at the same time. Sam's entire torso was slowly becoming wider, changing her internal organs in the process. A series of shooting pains shot out of her back, as Sam looked behind herself to see what was forming on her back. Large spikes had formed in a single row going down her back. Sam now knew what she was becoming as she felt the poison fill up her new spikes.

As Sam's torso continued to widen, she felt the scales form on her groin area. Her jeans suddenly tore off as a result of her hips becoming much too wide for them, also making her legs more separated from each other. Sam looked down and saw that cream colored scales had formed in two bands across her groin area. She blushed again, still rather shocked on her gender swap. Suddenly, a pulling pain erupted in his lower spine as she looked behind herself to see what was happening.

In awe, Sam watched as a large tail grew out of herself. She also realized that it had pulled her lower back out enough to match her upper back as the spikes quickly formed on her lower back and tail. She flexed her tail, getting used to the feeling of it. However, she didn't have much time to do so, as she felt a stabbing pain erupt in both of her legs.

In no time, both of her legs and feet were covered in blue scales. It began with the upper legs as they began to widen a large amount. As they widened, the central bone in the legs shrank in length and sunk into her body much more, reducing her height quite a bit. Muscles quickly bulked in her legs, allowing Sam to be able to support herself. Sam's lower legs followed the same fate as the upper part of her legs, widening and shrinking in length.

Suddenly, Sam felt a loss of balance as her feet began to change. Her shoes quickly peeled off her expanding feet. Sam's toes merged into two sections while the nails turned into white claws. The bones were reinforced with muscles as they finished widening, as Sam finally became steady again.

Sam looked down at herself; knowing that her head was the only human part left of her. The rest of her body fully resembled a Nidoqueen in every way. She suddenly remember that James would return at any given time. Sam knew that she would have to somehow explain what happened to herself. However, as a pain began to form in her head, she didn't have time to do so as the final changes went underway.

Sam's neck quickly widened and grew blue scales on it, leaving only the head left to change. Sam closed her eyes as she felt the scales quickly grow on her head. All the hair on her head popped out and drifted to the ground below. Cream colored scales formed on Sam's lower lip area.

Without warning, a loud crack came from Sam's jawbone as it began to grow outwards. Most of Sam's teeth fell out to the ground, leaving only two, very sharp teeth on the top and bottom side of her mouth. Sam's tongue widened a large amount as her nose was quickly stretched across her upper jaw, leaving only two nostrils in its place.

Due to Sam's jaw growing, it changed the entire shape of her skull into a slightly more streamline shape. A stretching pain began straining in both of her ears. Although unable to witness it, Sam certainly felt both of her ears triple in size. As her ears stopped growing, Sam felt her eyes quickly stretch out and change, making her eye color black. Finally, she felt a spike form between her eyes and on the back of her head, both of them quickly filling with poison.

Sam, now a complete Nidoqueen, was in a large state of confusion and fear. She had no idea what to do at this point as she wagged her tail. Suddenly, she felt a presence of someone enter the area. Looking down the path, her black eyes widened in fear on the sight of James running down the path. When the human boy got to the area where Sam was, they both stared at each other in confusion.

"Umm, hi there." James said, taking a step back.

'Come on; please notice the pile of torn clothing.' Sam though, taking a step towards James and putting her arms up.

"Wait a minute." James said, now noticing the torn clothing. It took him a bit, but he finally got it, as he looked up at the Nidoqueen. "...Sam?"

Sam nodded.

"Holy fuck! How did you get like this?" James asked in shock.

Sam pointed to the blue plant by the base of the tree.

"The plant made you a... Nidoqueen?" James asked.

Sam nodded again.

"Well then, that's... interesting. Doesn't that mean you're also a..."

Sam nodded, blushing.

"Wow. That's gotta be odd. I have no idea what to do with you."

"Me neither." Sam said outloud, forgetting that her friend can't understand her.

"What the hell did you say?" James asked.

Sam shook her head.

"Oh... crap! I just remembered! Those guys that were here before are on their way back here. We gotta get you out of here!" James said, pulling out a PokeBall.

Sam backed away and shook her head.

"Okay, capturing you is kind of a dumb idea. I see now. We can cut through the woods to the path."

Sam nodded, agreeing with her friend's plan.

James quickly hopped over a bush and entered the wooded area. Sam simply ran through the bush, trying to keep up with her friend. They ran for a short while before stopping and kneeling behind a large boulder. The two peeked over the boulder and saw the area in which they were in, the group of people now arriving.

"They're gonna see the clothes, Sam. We can't stay here for long."

Sam thought for a moment, and then got an idea.

The Nidoqueen stood back up, and pointed to the ground while looking at her friend, jestering him to stay where he was. James nodded as he continued to peek over the boulder while Sam made his way back to the area where the people were at. As he arrived back at the area, the man in the trench coat stepped out of the group of people.

"Well, well, well. I guess you can't listen to what we say, can you? I don't think you're aware that you will be a Nidoqueen for the rest of your life, do you? Either way, you'll make a great addition to the Safari Zone though." The man began to pull out a Master Ball from his back pocket.

Before he could get it out in time, Sam swung her tail around in a blink of an eye, directly hitting the man's arm. He screamed as the bones in his arm were shattered like glass. In harmony, the group of people backed away as the man looked up at the Nidoqueen in anger and fear.

"Humph! Fine. Have your freedom." The man said as two people from the group helped him to his feet.

Sam flexed her tail as the group of people walked away, a sense of triumph entering her mind. She waved her arm up, giving the all clear to James. A few moments later, he came back over the bush, looking at the Nidoqueen in shock and amazement.

"Holy crap, that was amazing!" James said in excitement.

Sam smirked on James's words.

"Alright, for now, let's just get you home. I'm sure your parent's don't want you to be the new story on the KNN."

Sam nodded. "Sounds fine by me."

"Not sure what you said, but I'll agree with it." James said, snickering.

And with that, the human and the Nidoqueen made their way out of the dirt path and onto the main road. Sam knew that living her new life would be very awkward for her, but, she knew in her heart that she could pull through. She walked along side her friend James as they both made their way back home.
