I awoke to the sounds of voices outside my cell.
"Master GranDracmon won't be happy about this," a feminine voice like black silk said. The voice belonged to LadyDevimon. "Not at all."
How I hate that voice!
The second one was gruff and unfamiliar. "Will ya just shut up? That's the only thing you've said since I asked you to show me to her."
"He won'tbe at all."
"Just open the door."
There was a click and the door opened. A tall figure stepped in and closed the door behind him. He was tall, at least 6'4 with a pale completion, spiky black hair, crimson eyes with slitted pupils, long claws the color of darkened steel, and a metallic tail similar to mine. He wore black and silver combat boots, black khakis that ended at the top of his boots, a black belt around his waist with a gun strapped to it, and a black bomber jacket that was unzipped, showing off his muscular build.
I bet he had every female in the castle after him. Probably the only reason that LadyDevimon agreed to let him see me. Typical of her; always flirting with the cute males, along with Rosemon. Makes me sick.
I tried to stand but the pain in my chest made me fall back down. "What the hell do you want?" I growled. "I've already went through my torture for today, leave me alone."
"What a nice way to greet someone who wanted to meet you." he said with a grin, showing off a set of fangs.
"Well you've met me, now go away."
"Don't you want to know why I wanted to meet ya?"
"I don't really care."
"Well, I'm your new guard, since you killed the other one. I'm Kagemon."
"And what makes you think I care?" I said icily, glaring at him. I was starting to get quite annoyed by him.
"I didn't, just thought you'd want to know. Everyone here tells me that you're a strong Digimon; I wanted to see for myself. By what they say, I thought you'd look different, not as pretty."
"GET OUT!" I hurled a piece of stone at him, missing his head by an inch, and embedding itself in the wall behind him, causing a large hole to form.
He looked at the hole and whistled. "That's pretty good," He turned to me. "I see why the others are afraid of you."
"Unless you want the next rock embedded in your skull; I suggest you leave." I picked up another stone and pulled my arm back to throw it.
He opened the door and left, closing it behind him. I curled up to resume my nap, tucking my head in the crook of my arm and wrapping my tail around my knees.
When I woke up, I found a plate of food and a pitcher of water sitting next to me. Who got me this?Probably Kagemon, I wonder why; all I did was yell at him and, not to mention, threaten him. I sat up and pulled the plate towards me. Just as I was beginning to eat, Kagemon walked in.
"Hello, Chikaramon. I see you're up."
"What do you want?" I asked, swallowing a mouthful of food.
"Just to see what you're doing."
"Why?"
He shrugged. "Just because."
"Hmm, the only time my old guard came in here was to take me to GranDracmon; that bastard."
"Well, I'll probably come in here a lot. I'm also tryin' to get away from that darn LadyDevimon and her pal, Rosemon. They're driving me crazy!"
"I'm not surprised." I muttered.
"Huh?"
"I said; I'm not surprised. Those two would go after any male that was…more like you."
"Hmm, you're right. Chikaramon, why is it that you're here anyway?"
"Because GranDracmon wanted me as his slave after he found out how strong I was."
"That shouldn't be a reason to lock you up."
"I don't mind; it is fun messing with him. He must hate the fact that an Ultimate is beating him. Besides it's not like I have anything better to do."
"Don't you have any friends that miss you?"
I hung my head sadly, tears burned my eyes and I blinked. "No. Nobody cares about me, and the only one that did is dead, thanks to Rosemon. How I would LOVE to get my hands on her. I'm gonna-!" I demonstrated ripping off her head with my hands. Then my hands dropped to my lap and I shook my head. "But I can't."
Kagemon walked over, knelt beside me, and put a hand on my shoulder. "I know what it's like to have someone you care about be killed. I lost my g-my friend to a MarineDevimon. A MarineDevimon! That's the reason why I'm here."
"Didn't you try to kill the MarineDevimon?"
"Of course I did! Got him too. But it didn't matter, she's still dead. And nothings gonna bring her back." He bit his lip, trying to hold back the tears that threatened to spill.
Feeling sorry for him, I threw my arms around his shoulders and patted him on the back.
He buried his face in my shoulder and silently cried. After he was done, he pulled away and dried his eyes. "Sorry."
"Don't worry about it."
He stood up. "Well, I need to go now. But I'll be back tomorrow." He turned to leave.
"Wait!" I said, standing up. I decided it wouldn't be too bad to ask him to be my friend. It wouldn't hurt would it?
He turned to me. "What?"
"I was wondering if you um…uh-" I stopped, unable to finish. What if he didn't want to?
"Wanted to be your friend? Sure."
"Really?" I asked, almost too stunned to speak.
"Really."
I smiled slightly for the first time since the death of my friend. He grinned in return and left me to stand there to try to convince myself about what had happened.
