The Dream
Chapter 2
In her life Shaymin has never seen a mansion let alone got this close to one. The only time she has ever seen something like this was in video games or on the internet. Upon closer inspection she noticed that it didn’t take after the whole rich person look, it was more of a normal up to date two story modern house that was stretched out. Ash got out of the car and went to what Shaymin could only assume was to prepare the staff. Shaymin wanted to get out and help, but that wasn’t what she did anymore; she was supposed to sit there and look cute. Dawn opened the door to the side of Shaymin, as comfy as the car seat was; Shaymin wanted to get out and explore a little. Shaymin expected Dawn to unstrap her first, but instead she dug into her purse and brought out what looked to be some boots and a pacifier clip. Dawn wasted no time getting the pacifier clipped attached to Shaymin’s onesie and getting the boots on her feet. Of course the boots matched the onesies design. Finally Dawn pulled the hoodie part of the onesie over Shaymin’s head to complete the look. Stepping out of the car the whole area seemed like a dream and may as well have been had it not been for Dawn who grabbed Shaymin’s hand; snapping her back to reality. Dawn walked Shaymin up to one of the people who was left standing. Ash must have sent the others away for some reason.
Dawn spoke up “Shaymin this is May. She will be one of your babysitters when we can’t care for you ourselves.”
Again another person who Shaymin met today that looked like a character out of Pokémon. The women before her took on the persona of May from the show.
May put on a bright smile “Nice to meet you! I know we are going to have lots of fun together!”
Shaymin looked up to Dawn with a puzzled face “What do you mean ‘one of my babysitters’?”
Dawn Explained “May here works for free as much as I wish she wouldn’t, so we abide by her schedule. I wanted her here to meet you. Unfortunately she has things to do so she’s only here for a short while.”
“I’m sorry. I wish I could stay and meet the new wittle cutie.” May reaches down and squeezes Shaymins cheeks. “But I have a paper due tonight sorry.”
Dawn giggles and fans her hand “Oh it’s fine! The other babysitter is someone we thought very carefully about. Either way little Shaymin will be delighted!” the two laughed a bit before May left and Dawn took shaymin inside.
Inside there was a large staircase that turned oddly a few 90 degree angles before leading upstairs. The entrance was very tame, it's what you would expect out of someone who was well off and just got a new baby. The two passed by the kitchen on the way to wherever they were going and Shaymin couldn't help, but notice the large highchair that was hiding behind one of the corners; Dawn had to practically drag her at that point past the doorway. Finally they arrived in a den with a large TV, a reading area, and lots of comfy seating as well as some other stuff Shaymin didn’t care to note. Ash was already sitting down with a seat next to him for Dawn and across a table was a seat for Shaymin. Shaymin and Dawn took their appropriate seats, there was a cup of what could only assume to be coffee or something for each of them at each placement.
“Shaymin this is where we lay down the rules and what will happen from this point on. You have chosen to be ours and this is your life now. I think you know this now, but I am sure you have many questions. I will allow you to go first.”
Shaymin wasted no time blurting out questions “First off I know for sure now I have seen you two somewhere before, but I can’t exactly place it. Secondly why me? I know you think you explained it back in that adoption office, but why go for someone who shot basically a kid and basically almost destroyed his own life. You could be adopting someone who is just twisted and wants to hurt people!”
Dawn goes to speak up, but Ash puts his up in front of her and leans forward. “You think you don’t deserve a life like this? What makes you think you are evil in a way? Did you enjoy attacking that kid?” Ash raised an eyebrow.
Shaymin clenched her fists. “Of course I didn’t enjoy it, but I certainly didn’t feel completely bad about it. Lucas has hurt many people. There were kids at that school who would become ‘friends’ with him and his posse that come in the next day with burns, cuts, and heck knows what else. Not to mention the bullying that already happened within the school itself. I won’t standby and let someone shoot me either! He always seemed to get away with it all for some reason, but not this time. At least maybe I got revenge for someone at that school… some poor soul.”
Ash relaxed and leaned back, but kept on a serious face “I think you just answered your own question. It was self defense against someone who you knew was not afraid to harm another person. Knowing this made you angry and if something happened to you, then at least you wanted to go down fighting for those who were hurt.” There was a slight pause before Ash continued “If it helps ease you in anyway. This kid Lucas who you say used to get away with everything. He certainly didn’t get away with it, not this time. He was expelled and as far as I know and has much more pressing problems now to deal with.”
Shaymin was taken aback by the response. Deep down Shaymin was afraid that maybe this tragedy that happened to her was because she deserved it. When she was kicked out of her old house she went to live with accepting relatives and took school online. She was so afraid of the outside world and of what she had done that she distanced herself from others; all the time these past few months were spent in a room with a computer and that's all she did. She felt like she didn’t deserve this sort of a chance at this perfect life because of that. Ash’s words seem to help calm her and make her realize that maybe all this time what she needed was someone to talk to about it.
Ash spoke up again breaking Shaymin out of her revelation “I'm sorry if any of that seemed harsh at all. I’m hoping that this will help you move on and try to enjoy the life we have planned for you. As for your first question, Dawn and I own Skylab Industries. We make and produce pretty much most of the medical equipment as well as cures to viruses around the world.”
Shaymin finally understood where she saw the couple finally. Way back during a gaming session at her relatives an advertisement popped up for Skylabs, but she dismissed it quickly in order to get back to the game.
“Now let’s get back to the rules of being our little pokebaby. You are to obey everything we say within reason. You can call us what you like, but mommy and daddy may win you some brownie points. Just act like the world is completely new to you; judging from how you act online it seems to be relatively easier for you than others. After this conversation you will be led up to the bathroom and given a special ointment that will remove all body hair except for your head of hair of course, then you will be diapered; we both prefer after that you sit and wait for your new babysitter to arrive.”
Shaymin nods having no problem with these conditions “Sounds fine to me!”
Shaymin felt as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders; Ash’s peptalk did wonders. She felt as if she could honestly start enjoying all of this.
May popped her head around the corner “You guys all done? Can I steal the little grassling away from you yet?”
Dawn finishes her coffee and sets the cup down “She’s all yours May.”
Shaymin leans down and takes a big gulp of her cup; to her surprise it was warm chocolate milk. Shaymin let out a small giggle at the discovery before getting up and walking over to May.
May extended her hand to Shaymin “Come on cutie we gotta get you ready!”
Shaymin took Mays hand and walked with her out into the entrance hall. Shaymin took more time than before to admire the entrance hall, course this time someone evilly put a giant stroller at the front door as a tease. May tugged Shaymin along up the stairs and down the right hallway before stopping before a pair of dark brown doors with water droplets cascading down it. Shaymin and May stood for a solid couple of minutes before May started laughing.
“You are a silly one! I can’t follow you on this one. Dawn thought it would be best for you to do this part yourself.”
Shaymin was ushered inside and left in the middle of the room. May called out from behind the door “Knock when you are ready to come out.”
Again the modern design comes into play. The floor was a pretty sleek tan or white looking tile that you could see your own reflection in and the walls were covered in a lovely navy or dark blue tile. There was a bathtub built into the wall on the far end and a shower on the wall next to it. As Shaymin scanned the room her eyes locked on it. There was a cute black metal shelf with lots of cute bath toys on it, but that wasn’t even the best part; next to it was the largest changing table she had ever seen. It was adorned with cute sea creatures to match the cute bathroom baby aesthetic, the changing table itself stood at just above her stomach in height and she was only 5.8. Shaymin already could tell it fit her dimensions perfectly, there were even diapers stocked in the little cubbies that are used to hold the changing supplies. She picked one up and examined it. It was adorned with cute pastel pink bunnies, she knew these pretty easily from memory; they were some of the most popular diapers on the market. These diapers were also not cheap. Shaymin squeezed and played with it in her hands for a bit before putting it back to get back to the task at hand. In the middle of the room was a table with a couple large bottles on it and notes to match. One said “Hair Remover” the other said “Neutralizer. Assuming one was supposed to use the hair remover then use the neutralizer. Shaymin stripped down to a naked state. There was a full body mirror on the wall behind her for convenience. Shaymin looked herself over, she had always had a very feminine like body and her brown hair had cute bangs that if styled in a proper way could make her seem more female or even pass for a female. Even Shaymins pale white skin wasn’t half bad for a guy, it gave her some pride in herself. Breaking from thought she took the body of the hair remover and began to lather herself in it; making sure not to get any in her hair at all. The bottle said wait 8 minutes then wash it off. After a couple minutes there was a slight burning sensation all over her body, but it wasn’t the worst pain in the world; if anything it was just annoying. When the time was up Shaymin ran to the shower and hosed herself down. All her hair fell off her body like magic.
“Wow that definitely not something you find in the supermarket!” She exclaimed.
Shaymin grabbed a towel from off the shelf and began drying herself off. She went over to the bottle of neutralizer after fully dry and began to apply it to her body. It had the consistency of lotion and just absorbed into her skin. Suddenly a much more intense burning sensation fell over her body, this was much worse than the hair remover was before.
“OW OW OW OW!” She jumped up and down to get cooler air to flow over her body to make the burning less intense.
Slowly the pain began to fade and Shaymin had her daily workout. She took another look over her body and it was smooth, not a single hair in sight. She could actually pass for a decent girl at this point. Shaymin put all of her clothes back on and went to knock on the door to the bathroom. May practically burst into the bathroom, she was very excited for something in particular.
“My my look at you! You are just the cutest girly Shaymin I have ever seen in my life!”
This caused Shaymin to blush greatly, so Shaymin decided to leave the bathroom for wherever she needed to go; but felt a tug pull her back. It was May, she had grabbed Shaymins onesie and wouldn’t let go.
“Where do you think you are going?”
Shaymin was confused, did she miss a step? “I was going to go wait for the babysitter.”
“Well first let's get you changed!” May walked over to the changing table from before and patted the top of it. “Hop up!”
Shaymins eyes widen; a flurry of excitement and nervousness blossomed inside her. She hesitantly approached the changing table and climbed up on the table and sat up with her legs over the changing table. May giggled.
“Now I know for a fact you understand how a changing table works.”
Shaymin blushed brightly. No one had ever seen her naked before, but nonetheless she laid on her back. May wasted no time getting to work, she had already gotten the necessary supplies as well as the pink diaper from before. She had unzipped Shaymins onesie and had her whole lower half exposed. May removed Shaymins undies which had caused Shaymin to put her hands over her face and blush a bright red.
“I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone blush so brightly before in my life.”
Shaymin let out a little eep, May practically had to hold back her giggles at this point. May was quick and efficient, but took great care. Lavender filled the air from the baby powder, if the next babysitter couldn’t tell by the smell of baby powder that was stuck to Shaymin then the loud crinkling the diaper was making from being unfolded would be the ultimate hint. Within a few minutes the diaper was secure and Shaymin was dressed back up. May helped Shaymin down and the blushing didn’t stop; the diaper was as thick as everyone online told Shaymin and then some. Shaymin walked forward and the crinkling certainly wasn’t any quieter under her onesie.
May patted Shaymins butt “I think that was one of my best changes yet.”
“You’ve done this before?” Shaymin asked sheepishly.
“Only as practice on dolls. I mean I also did a bit of babysitting when I was younger, but with actual babies. Anyway let's get you to the nursery.”
Shaymin was escorted down the hall slightly until they hit another pair of dark brown doors that had the words NURSERY in pink print on the front surrounded by a bunch of infantile pictures such as bottles, pacifiers, diapers etc.
May place both hands on the doors and push them open “Welcome to your new room!”
Shaymin felt like being shocked was going to be a trend for her for a while, but anyone would be shocked if you had seen a nursery like this. The nursery was big and it was bathed in a pink light from what was assumed to be pink tints on the windows. Toys were scattered across the ground strategically, as well as there were some in a large set of cubbies to the right. There was a crib that came up to Shaymins neck and adorned with gracidea flowers; complimented by a mobile of spinning sky form Shaymin Pokémon above it. The room had lots of adult sized, but super modern babyish furniture. This is included, but not limited to a walker, bouncer, changing table, and a sleeper swing. The walls were adorned with Shaymins playing in sky form with each other or them in ground form playing with other Pokémon. There also was this giant entertainment center with a nice TV, baby and adult game consoles, plus shelves full of age appropriate games and movies. It was a paradise like no other.
May put her hands on her hips “Well I gotta get going. You enjoy yourself till the other sitter is here!” May begins to close the store, but before she closes it completely she peeks in and says “Later!”
Shaymin barely has time to respond “Goodbye!” There was a short silence before Shaymin shouts out “Thank you!”
Shaymin was alone for the first time in the entire day. It was weird to be left to her own devices, on one hand she wanted to explore and play with everything; on the other hand she was so overwhelmed she wanted to take a minute. Shaymin sat down in front of some blocks and began to stack them until they fell down. The blocks were 3D printed with various Pokémon trying to teach you about letters and numbers. Shaymin stood back up and glanced over the copies of movies that she had at her disposal. She skimmed over them until she found her favorite movie of all time! Giratina and the Skywarrior, easily her favorite movie due to the fact that the main character was a Shaymin after all. She liked to watch it when she was stressed or overwhelmed. She popped the movie in and began to watch it for what seemed to be the millionth time. Suddenly Shaymin heard voices from outside the door to the nursery, without a second thought she turned off the TV and dived under the crib. It was a snug fit, but she could hide pretty far back in the darkness. Why was she scared Shaymin thought, it must have been from shyness? Hard to imagine anyone else seeing her like this today.
The door opened and a sweet voice rang through the silence “Hello?”
Shaymin knew that voice immediately, her eyes widened as the ‘new babysitter’ entered the room.
