Charon's smile melted into a thoughtful frown as the raichu's amber eyes studied the female pikachu's worried expression. After a moment longer, Charon smiled, putting his amber paws on his hips as he strolled over in front of Maria.
The male raichu then very gently, and very carefully, brought Maria in a close hug. "{I love you.}" He answered simply. "{Did you need words to know?}" He asked quietly. "{I just have trouble showing it sometimes... I try to make the signs more apparent... But I am a raichu... I'm just not as comfortable expressing my feelings for you... Even though I-... I truly love you.}" Charon stuttered slightly uncomfortable, nuzzling his face into the female pikachu's warm, yellow fur, amber eyes closed, taking in her scent.

The female pikachu noiced the male raichu's smile turn into a frown and for a moment, was afraid to hear what Charon would say. But seeing the raichu smile again, she couldn't help but smile as well.
Maria purred alittle, gently being hugged by Charon and lowered her ears to keep from poking the raichu in his eyes.{"No..I didn't need words...I...Just..."} She broke off for a moment, waving her heart shaped tail around and smiled again. {I love too, Charon. I know that raichus are diffrenet then pikachus, but you? You are the most loving, gentle and kindest raichu I have ever met. I will always love you."} Maria spoke softly, and soon started humming a tune that her mother had sung to her.

The male raichu nodded slowly as he hugged the female pikachu closer to him. Since he was hugging Maria, she couldn't see Charon's expression.
It was etched with worry... A furrowed orange brow... Amber eyes that were alight with worry... Gritted jaw.
He was worrying, because he wondered of what Maria said was true.
He wasn't living like a normal raichu... In fact, his electric pouches were more depleted than full... Charon discharged regularly to keep his energy reserves nearly empty, only using remaining electric power in emergencies.
If he didn't... The electric buildup would increase his muscle mass, make him stronger, and cloud his mind with aggression. Charon was terrified if Maria saw that side of him. It terrified him even more what he would do to her in such a state of mind...
Charon's lips turned to a small smile as he nuzzled the female pikachu's neck, giving a sort of rumbling purr, as if nothing had happened. "{I know you do.}" He said softly.

Maria purred once more, feeling the male raichu nuzzle her small neck lightly and her heart shaped tail slowly twitched. But yet....something did bug her, feeling as if Charon was, in some cases, out of energy or near it. But she wouldn't bring it up, not right now anyway and slowly pushed away from Charon, her smile still there.
{"Let's go get some oran berries, that will get your energy and mine back up."} Maria spoke cheerfully, turning around and started walking off the path again. She had to do something to get it off her mind, even though her worries did buzz around her head most of the time.

The male raichu smiled softly. "{Of course. That sounds like a good idea actually.}" Charon stated truthfully as he followed Maria, whip-like tail gently waving back and forth in the air, the thunderbolt blade gleaming in the sunlight.

Maria continued to walk, her eyes seemed clouded with worry and sadness, her tail moved less often as she thought more but her and Charon. She didn't know why, but the female pikachu was noicing some things about the raichu that was, indeed not himself. He spoke as if he was more tired and even though he could still defend them both, she saw that he was nearly out of energy and felt as if she herself, needed to protect him.
At first, Maria thought that he was just letting go for a little while, letting out a little more enegry then normal to keep from shocking anyone. But as the days lingered on, she began to worry about his well being and even started watching the raichu at night, as worry clung to her mind like a never ending storm. Maria was so much in thought, that she had forgotten all about the oren berries and even walked pass the tree that grew them. She contiuned to walk on, a heavy thought on her mind and sparks slowly seemed to shoot out of her red cheeks, feeling as if something was wrong.

The male raichu furrowed his orange brow in thought as he watched Maria simply walk past the Oran berry bush. Charon glanced at the tree with his amber eyes, blinked them once, and then turned to the female pikachu walking on.
Quickly picking a few, the male raichu ran after Maria. As he caught up to her, he merely matched her pace, offering an oran berry to her from his brown colored paw, amber eyes slightly worried, but smile warm.
"{Would you like an oran berry?>" He asked as he popped one in his mouth with the other paw.
"{You haven't been yourself. Is soemthing wrong?}"

Maria turned her head slightly, looking at Charon with a dim look in her dark black eyes and slowly stopped as her heart-shaped tail switched sides, laying against her back.
{"Why?} The female pikachu asked, her voice wavered alittle and her black-tipped ears dropped slightly behind her. {"Why is you enengy...lower then before?"} Maria added, feeling as if she needed to sit down but ignored it.

The male raichu's amber eyes widened for a second in shock... How did?... Well... He supposed Maria was very perceptive to energy readings... Electric types were good at that sort of thing...
The male raichu slowly closed his amber eyes with a dreaded sigh... The tiredness and even fear barely being controlled by a desperate, forced calm was palpable in that simple sound, that simple release of air.
"Well... Perhaps it's time I told you Maria..." Charon choked out, getting visibly upset... The male raichu took a deep breathe to try and calm himself, but it wasn;t working very well... He could feel a strange obstruction lodged in his throat... Or perhaps it was just his throat tightening, making it hard to speak.
"Here.... Lets sit down... You have a right to know about how I'm currently doing anyway."

Maria's black tipped ears lowered even more, a sudden feeling washed over her and for a moment, didn't even notice Charon's shocked experstion. It was an odd feeling, as if something wasn't right and needed to be worked out. But that feeling vaished as the male Raichu spoke, snapping her out of it and raised her ears just slightly to listen.
Charon voice however, made the female pikachu wonder even more about what he was doing and for the first time, felt anger surge through her. Her eyes slowly narrowed halfway and a spark escaped her red cheeks, as signeling Charon that she was indeed mad.
{"Yes..Why don't we sit down and talk. And please tell me the truth before I really find myself in a bad mood."} Maria sighed, still holding a bit of anger in her voice and sat down next to a tree.

The male raichu inwardly flinched at the harsh tone... He supposed that Maria took offense at Charon keeping secrets from her... He sometimes forgot that she could easily take care of herself. She didn't need protecting... She didn't need to be protected by the truth.
Charon gritted his teeth, amber eyes nervous as he fought an extremely hard, inward battle to get the words out. "Because it's Spring Maria... That means only one thing for adult chus... And as a raichu... I have trouble controlling my aggression..."
The raichu took a deep breathe as he choked out, "Your power is like a stream Maria... It flows with a swift, yet basic current. It never changes, and it's path can be manipulated and controlled at will. You have total control. Being a pikachu is different than a raichu and pichu controlling electricity."
"You know what it's like to be a pichu... You can't let loose anything without harming yourself because of underdevelopment. But a raichu... Completely different... It's a raging river, violent and impossible to control. There is so much power with no way to really release it... It builds up... And it alters my mind, making me more agressive and irritable. To extremes, it turns me to a violent thug if I don't discharge."
Charon sighed. "I have... Very strong feelings for you... Especially now. And if I let electricity build up too long, those feelings can amplified.... I... I don't want to do something to harm our relationship, and if I'm not careful... I'm afraid my frustration will..." Charon trailed off, putting his brown paws on his face, shivering slightly...
"I don't know if I'm ready to be a father Maria... I don't know if you would take such a dangerous person like me to be your mate... I'm worried we might not have a choice in the matter if I am not careful with myself..."
The male raichu gave a shuddering sigh of self loathing as he gazed at the beautiful pikachu. "But... It's better you know about this." He admitted. A pause. "I do love you... More than anything in the world... Thats why I don't want to even put myself in the path of such temptation... I... It disgusts me that I can't control my basic instincts. It's humiliating that I have to do this on a regular basis just to keep my head. I don't want to be a raichu... If I could have lived life as a pikachu, I would have."

Maria sat there for a while, listening to Charon talking and slowly, her anger had faded. She saw the fear in the male raichu's eyes, something she had never seen before in him and blicked, as if in wonder about what he was saying. Her ears twitched more often and her heart shaped tail was still, almost as if it was to frozen to move at all.
{"Charon.} The female pikachu whispered, watching as the male raichu's sadness poured out of him, like a river of never ending pain and even seemed more tried then ever. Maria's dark black eyes closed, listening to the worry that moved his voice and every he choked on his words, she couldn't help but flitch at that, as if feeling the same way. Even her bright yellow fur seemed to darken alittle, feeling Charon's pain and hurt in waves.
{"Charon."} She spoke again, but this time alittle louder, her eyes halfway opened and her ears lowered until they were behind her, holding out her paw and slowly grabbed his brown one with a small but visable smile.
{"Charon..Please. I don't want you to be a Pikachu like me. If fact, I don't really care how you act...maybe when your angry, but that's beside the point."} She spoke, shaking her head alittle before looking at Charon again with a bigger smile and a tear running down her red cheek.
{"Your still you, No matter what happens. I know that for a fact. Every other raichu or pikachu would be quick to leave me, just because I was too happy or too cheerful to be around. I love you because you're you, Kind and loving. I don't want you to be another pikachu....I love you....I always will."} Maria manged to say before more tears ran down her cheeks. She tighted her grip on his paw, proving her point and slowly lended agaisnt his orange fur, enjoying the warmth that gave off him.
{"Besides, I'm not really ready for kids yet either, since I tend to get into trouble alot.} She added, tears still running down her cheeks.

The raichu could only nod softly as he held the female pikachu closer to him, amber eyes tightly shut as he gently breathed in her scent, his body shivering slightly. Charon then brought his brown paws and gently stroked Maria's head, feelign the strands of golden fur between his finger-like paw digits... Soft and silky, and the steady breathing along with this action and her comforting words helped his ease his troubled mind ever so slowly.
He held her for a moment longer before he gently pulled away, and stared at her intently. {"Maria... I'm just worried about us. I'm not always in control of myself... I feel like I need to figure out my problems before I let them burden you."}
