Renamon: The Doctormon of Love
King Weregarurumon
Author Notes: Don't be alarmed. I'm just revising these so that I can get back into the groove of writing fan fics. It has been a while and it is amazingly weird to start over from scratch. I can't promise a new chapter anytime soon, but one will come out.
A cool breeze rustled the leaves of a tree, the same tree that Ruki and
Renamon was resting in. A lone leaf dropped into Renamon's hands, seeming quite
small in her gigantic hands. Renamon studied it for a while, and then let it
continue its path to the ground. Ruki, who was a branch then Renamon, saw the
same leaf come her way. She snorted at it and blew it away, only to have the
leaf come back and land in her hair. Ruki angrily plucked the leaf from her
hair and tossed it in the air, only to have the leaf smack her full in the
cheek. Extremely aggravated, Ruki pulled the leaf from her cheek, rolled it
into a ball, then flinging it into the air. The leaf unfurled in the air, and
planted itself onto Ruki's forehead. Sighing defeat, Ruki turned her attention
toward Renamon.
"Renamon, let's go," Ruki commanded. Renamon moved from her spot in the tree and leaped gracefully onto the sidewalk. She walked on, until she heard Ruki's voice again. "Renamon?" Ruki asked.
"Yes Ruki?" Renamon in turn asked Ruki.
"Help me down."
Renamon looked at her partner and saw that she was still in the tree. Renamon helped Ruki down to the ground, making sure that she didn't baby Ruki at the same time. Once on the floor, Ruki adjusted her jacket collar, and put on her blue shades- with the leaf still on her forehead. Renamon noticed this and carefully peeled it off, saying nothing at all. Ruki said nothing in return, and the two left.
Several minutes later, the duo still didn't encounter any Digimon. They covered the nearby mall, restaurant, and school, but nothing. The two walked by the beach, still searching for an opponent.
"Unbelievable. No one challenged us at all today," Ruki said sadly. "Maybe they realized that we are unbeatable."
"Maybe, maybe not," Renamon responded.
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"It means what it means, nothing more."
"Don't get high and mighty with me!"
"Whose high and mighty?"
Ruki went to continue the debate when she saw a gray mist lingering around the beach. She smiled triumphantly and cocked her head toward Renamon. "Get ready, Renamon."
Renamon changed into a fighting stance, waiting for the opponent and the next command from Ruki, waiting for the battle to begin.
A small gremlin stepped out of the mist. An unruly stock of graying black hair adorned its head, obscuring its eyes. A large, bulbous brown nose stuck out unceremoniously above a salt-and-pepper handlebar mustache, which seemed too large for its small face. Clad in a pristine lab coat, black shoes and pants, the digimon was something to behold. Ruki held out here D – Arc to scan for its profile, but nothing turned up.
"No profile? I've never seen this digimon before, so it's a strong possibility that it's a new digimon," Ruki said to herself. She shrugged nonchalantly and then smiled confidently. "Whatever, this battle is still mine. Renamon!" Ruki commanded.
Renamon ran toward the mysterious digimon, covering the distance between them quickly. The gremlin Digimon did nothing to defend itself, except keep its hand inside the pockets of its lab coat. Renamon pulled back her fist to deliver a blow to the skull, when the digimon suddenly reacted. In one smooth movement, the digimon pulled a test tube out of its pocket and pulled off the stopper. The momentum of the action caused the liquid inside the tube to spill out. The concoction turned gaseous and clouded around Renamon, stopping her in her assault. She began to cough sporadically, the clouds still surrounding her. Seeming satisfied with the results, the digimon ran off.
"Hey! Come back here! This battle isn't finished yet!" Ruki yelled at the digimon. She started to chase, but stopped when she saw the plumes of sand being kicked up in his direction. She turned to Renamon, who was still coughing. "Renamon, are you injured?" Ruki asked, with no emotion in her voice.
The cloud surrounding Renamon slowly dispersed, allowing Renamon to breathe properly again. She coughed once to clear her throat, and then replied, "I am well as I can be, Ruki."
"Good, we should go after that digimon. Who knows what he might have done," Ruki said, and started to run in the direction of the unknown digimon. Renamon started to follow, but stopped when she noticed something weird about her appearance.
"What are these dots doing here?" she asked herself. Ruki overheard her question and ran back to her digimon partner.
"What dots?"
"These dots," Renamon answered, pointing toward the fur on her chest. True to her word, several small, red dots covered most of her fur. "This is great. My lovely fur has been ruined, and it takes so long to get it just right…"
Ruki said nothing, taking the time to readjust her shades. "Come on, maybe that digimon knows what happened to you." Renamon reluctantly nodded and the two ran off in the direction off the anonymous digimon.
Leaving the beach area, the two continued to run, searching for the digimon. In the middle of their search, the gray mist surrounded them again.
"Stop Renamon. Might as well get something out of this," Ruki said. Renamon followed the command and slowed down. An Apemon leapt out of the mist, wielding his large bone. Dashing toward Renamon, the Apemon swung the bone club wildly. Renamon sidestepped the wild swing and slammed a roundhouse kick into Apemon's stomach, sending him into the air. She then leapt above Apemon and kicked him back to the earth, creating a small crater from the impact. She landed gracefully onto the floor, barely causing any dust to rise. The dazed Apemon slowly rose from the crater and tried to stop making the yellow birdies from flying around his head.
Suddenly, a random voice shouted, "Finish Him!" from out of nowhere. Renamon sauntered over to Apemon, and the scene suddenly darkened. A scary, gothic piano intro played, while Renamon stood in front of Apemon. She then took a straw out, causing Apemon to give a bloodcurdling scream and attempt to run away. It was too late for him, however. As Renamon began to suck in the air through the straw, Apemon slowly turned into data pixels, to be sucked up be Renamon. Renamon made a fighting stance, and above her "Renamon Wins" flashed in white. Underneath that, the word FATALITY was written in blood.
Ruki slowly massaged the bridge of her nose. "Must you always do that?" she asked.
"Do what?" Renamon questioned, completely unaware of what she just did.
"Forget it," Ruki said. "Let's go."
*********************
"It's simple. Takato. Takato. Get it," Takato told his digimon, Gillmon.
"Yeah, Takatomon!" Gillmon shouted.
Emitting a long sigh, Takato grabbed his digimon by his shoulders. "It's Takato, T-A-K-A-T-O."
"Takatomon, T-A-K-A-T-O-M-O-N," Gillmon said.
Takato face vaulted into the soft grass of the park. Takato decided that since Gillmon was a digimon, he needed plenty of exercise and fresh air, and the park had plenty of both. Takato noticed his partner's long face, and gave him a reassuring hug. "Hey, don't worry about it. Even if you can't remember my name, you're still my partner."
"Thanks Takato."
"Hey, you just said it!"
"Said what, Takatomon?"
"Forget it," Takato sighed. He rubbed his partner's head, and Gillmon smiled.
"What a touching scene, I just might cry… not!" Ruki yelled. Renamon and Ruki entered the park area, still in the search for the unknown digimon, when they stumbled unto both Takato and Gillmon. "Are you ready for a battle Tamer?"
"Will you quit it with this battle stuff? I mean, who are you to decide that we can use Digimon as fighting tools?" Takato yelled. Gillmon stood in front of Takato in a protective way.
"I am a Tamer, that is all I need. Now, will you battle me, or will you run like the coward you are?" Ruki asked
"I am not a coward! Man, someone watches way too much Pokémon!" Takato angrily responded.
"Pokémon? Listen, that has nothing to do with this!" Ruki answered irately.
"Let's see… I bet you like Gary, don't you?" Takato taunted.
"He does have nice hair…" Ruki mumbled absentmindedly. She then noticed who was around her, and blushed violently. "That's enough babble. Renamon, get ready!" Ruki yelled. Taking out her D-Arc and Speed Plug in card, Ruki took a deep breath. "Speed Plug in, Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd Slllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"
Renamon dashed forward, her speed increased by the card slash performed by Ruki.
"Gillmon, even though Ruki wants to fight, I don't. So when Renamon comes, try to stop her as softly as possible, okay?" Takato said to Gillmon. Gillmon nodded his consent, and braced for the blur of fur. "I'll help you out," Takato said, taking out a Defense Plug in card and his D-Arc. "Defense Plug in, Card Slash!"
Renamon continued to sprint toward Gillmon, staying right in path to run him over. Gillmon tensed his body for the impact, but stopped when a bizarre odor wafted by his nostrils. He took a deeper sniff, and felt his heart beat increase slightly, his body temperature rising along with it. He glanced at the vulpine digimon running toward him, and felt his tail sway from side to side. He tackled Renamon to the floor suddenly, catching her off-guard.
"All right Gillmon!" Takato shouted. He then turned toward Ruki. "You know, we really have no reason to do this."
Ruki simply snorted at him, and started to yell commands to Renamon. "Renamon, he set himself up! Destroy him!"
Renamon tried to punch Gillmon in the solar plexus, but Gillmon's hug prevented her from taking any actions. He then gave her a long lick on the side of her face and purred happily.
"Gillmon, what are you doing? Come on, we proved our point, let's go," Takato said. Gillmon didn't listen or respond. He just nuzzled Renamon in the neck, and shouted, "I'm so happy!"
Renamon was the complete opposite of happy. Using her legs, she was able to break Gillmon's hold and flip him high in the air. She wiped the spittle off her face, and looked at it in disgust. Gillmon landed on his legs, and tackled Renamon again. "Renamon, I know you didn't mean that!" He gave Renamon another lick, this time right in the middle of her face. Renamon was extremely angry, looking at the world through a saliva screen. She head butted Gillmon, sending him scrawling into the ground. Ruki motioned toward her direction, and Renamon nodded. She side somersaulted over his body, vaulted off Takato's shoulders, landed on the ground, and sped off with Ruki.
"This is not over Tamer," she spat at Takato, then resumed running with her digimon.
"Whatever. Gillmon, that was one great tactic!" Takato congratulated his partner. Gillmon, on the other hand, was not happy.
"Renamon? Where are you?" Gillmon yelled. His nose picked up her scent, and Gillmon bounded after her. "Renamon, we shall soon be reunited!"
Takato sighed, and chased his digimon partner. "I just hope this doesn't end up with me having to get him neutered…"
********************
Terriermon and Lee lazily stared at the clouds, eating marshmallows and sipping on soda. They already had the best spot for lazy cloud watching, the audience stands of the track and field section of a high school.
"Hey Lee, can I have another marshmallow?" Terriermon asked.
Lee looked at his partner through his green shades, and smiled. "I don't know. I think you had enough. Besides, you look like a marshmallow with green stripes all ready!"
"Hey, that wasn't nice Lee! You know I'm concerned about my size as it is!" Terriermon said huffily, crossing his little arms across his chest.
"Buddy, it was a joke. Here, catch!" Lee shouted, pulling a marshmallow out of a bag and tossing it high in the air. Terriermon flew into the air and gobbled the marshmallow in midair. "Hey, you cheated," Lee said coolly.
"I did not! You said catch, and I did!"
"No, I meant catch like this," Lee explained. He tossed another marshmallow into the air, and let it fall into his mouth.
"I see… can I try it?" Terriermon asked eagerly.
"You know," Lee said, pulling another marshmallow out of the bag, "I think this is a ploy to get more marshmallows."
"Is not!" Terriermon debated.
"Tamer!" Ruki shouted, interrupting the conversation quite rudely. Renamon and Ruki placed themselves before the stands where Lee and Terriermon were resting.
"Terriermon, please tell me that who just spoke was not who I thought it was," Lee asked his partner already knowing it was her.
"Sorry Lee, but it is her," Terriermon said apologetically.
Lee sighed, and turned his head toward the female fighting duo. He lowered his glasses, and said, "What do you want?"
"That's a stupid question."
"Really? Some people are finicky you know."
" Tamer, stop the talk and begin the battle!"
"Listen, I still don't know why you are obsessed with battling, but I am not."
"What you like to do has nothing with this! Get off your butt Tamer, bring your partner, and battle me!"
"Listen you! You're a Tamer, and I'm a Tamer. Does that register something in your brain?"
"Yes, that we must battle!"
"Yeah, you go do that. Me, I'm going to stay here and drink my soda peacefully," Lee calmly countered, taking a sip of his soda. "See?"
"It seems that you need some prodding. Renamon, attack!" Ruki commanded.
Renamon nodded, and used her Fox Leaf Arrowhead attack to shot three razor sharp leaves at Lee. Terriermon saw the incoming projectiles, and nudged his partner. Lee also saw the projectiles speeding toward him, and jumped from his spot on the bench. Lee rolled several times on the floor from the impact, ending up with a mouthful of grass.
"Well, will you fight now, or do I have to show you what happens when she aims properly?" Ruki taunted.
Lee glared at the two, and then looked at his shades. Since they were safe, he placed them in his pocket. "Terriermon, we don't have a choice this time. Try not to go insane this time, okay?" Lee said to Terriermon. Taking his D-Arc from his belt clip, and a Digivice card, Lee shouted, "Digivice Card, Card Slash!"
Terriermon
digivolve to… Galgomon!
Ruki
seemed a little shaken at the sight of Galgomon again, but quickly regained her
posture. Renamon was already battling Galgomon, and neither off them seemed to
have an edge. While Renamon was quicker and was a better fighter, Galgomon was
stronger, was naturally equipped with two machine guns, and quite agile for his
size.
"Renamon, forget attacking him! Use your speed to kick his butt!" Ruki
shouted over the noise of battle.
Renamon nodded her understanding. She let Galgomon charge toward her, and then Renamon flipped over his back and kicked him squarely in the butt. Galgomon stumbled from all the excess speed and landed in the grass, ending up doing what his partner was doing a few minutes ago- eating grass.
"It seems that you're a poor Tamer. You have a champion, and I still beat you!" Ruki taunted. Lee said nothing, he only keep his eyes on the battle.
Galgomon slowly rose to a kneeling position, coughing up the grass he just ate. He wiped his mouth, and turned to face Renamon. His eyes grew distant and hazy as he stared at Renamon. Then, his eyes grew into oversized pink hearts, and his normal heart made loud pitter – patter noises.
"Oh no… not again," Renamon said. She nervously backed away as Galgomon slowly started to advance.
"Renamon! My sweet! Come to me!" Galgomon shouted, scurrying toward Renamon. Renamon leapt over his back, and kick his back. This time, Galgomon was prepared for the technique. He twisted around and grabbed Renamon by her tail. Renamon crashed into the grassy floor, doing what everyone else was doing- ending up with a mouthful of grass.
"I don't believe this! This is the second time today!" Ruki yelled, her shades hanging askew on her face.
"That what happened?" Lee asked, still in shock from what he was seeing.
"That your idiot partners get some abnormal affection for mine!" Ruki screamed.
"What are you talking about?"
"That other loser… Takato. His Gillmon did the same thing."
"Oh."
Renamon was somehow able to escape Galgomon's grip, and ran for her life around the track, followed by a bounding Galgomon, a la Pepe Le Pew. After watching the two chase each other around for a few minutes, Lee decided to try to intervene. He ran of the sidelines, only to fall flat on his face.
"Stupid oversized sneakers…" he muttered to himself, talking about his shoes. He wrenched them off, and started to run after his love crazed Galgomon. Ruki watched the whole scene with some amusement. She had to admit, the whole thing was ludicrous and humorous, but it was taking up her time, time she could be using battling other digimon and Tamers.
Suddenly, a black and red blur jetted past Ruki, breaking the sound wave at the same time. Seconds later, a panting Takato finally showed up on the scene.
"Gillmon! Wait, don't do anything stupid!" he shouted exhaustedly. He placed his hands on his knees and tried to get his breath back.
"Why did you bring him here? Do you really have to go and insult my partner anymore?" Ruki shouted, clearly unhappy at the appearance of Gillmon.
"I… didn't! He came here by himself! He ran too fast for me to even catch up to him!" Takato shouted back, still panting deeply.
"Hey you! The crazed bunny! Stop chasing my girl!" Gillmon shouted. Renamon and Galgomon stopped at hearing the voice, but Lee didn't. He crashed right into Galgomon and crashed to the floor.
"Did someone get the license plate of that truck?" Lee asked, wobbly from the crash.
"What do you mean, YOUR girl?! She's mine!" Galgomon shouted at Gillmon.
"Are you crazy! She's nuts about me! She can't get enough of me!"
"I should be asking if you're the one who's crazy! Why would she want a runt like you when she could have me?"
"Maybe because she has taste!"
"Well, if I'm correct, she ran away from you, and came to me!"
"She was just running away from you!"
"No, we were having a race, and she was winning!"
"That's a lie! Besides, I already kissed her! Twice! With the tongue!"
Galgomon paled at the comment, then got angry. "That's it! I tried to explain it to you, but you had to say that!" He aimed his machine gun toward Gillmon.
"Oh great," Lee muttered. He produced a mega phone and shouted into it. "Attention all of Tokyo! There is a ballistic bunny with oversized machine guns attached to his arms. I suggest that you head for cover. I know it sounds crazy, but it's true! Don't come crying to me when there's a hole in your ramen bowl and in your car window!"
"Gatling Gun!" Galgomon yelled, having no sense of aim, and not caring either. Everyone near the track hit the dirt as soon as Galgomon started to attack. The shells flew everywhere and hit pretty much everything. Luckily, Gillmon found a chance to tackle Galgomon and stop the shooting. Renamon knew the two would be preoccupied with fighting, and so she took the opportunity to escape. She picked up Ruki, placed her on her shoulder, and ran off.
"What now?" Takato asked, scratching his head in confusion.
"Maybe we can use something to attract their attention, you know something they really like," Lee suggested.
Takato gave a victorious smile. "I know exactly what to say." He turned toward the two fighting digimon and shouted, "Gillmon! I just saw this ugly, gray cat striding around here; acting like it owns the place! It said that there was nothing that you could about it because you're a coward! Are you going to take that?" Gillmon and Galgomon continued fighting, completely oblivious to what Takato said.
"I guess he is," Lee joked, making Takato blush. "I think I have a way to stop Galgomon at least." He turned toward the two fighting digimon and shouted, "Galgomon! I have your favorite marshmallows right here! The chocolate sprinkles covered, fudge dipped, strawberry filled ones! If you dedigivolve, I'll give you some!" Galgomon lifted his head for a second, but then went on to fight Gillmon.
"At least he acknowledged you," Takato said. Lee shook his head.
"So what? It was just as big a failure as your plan was," Lee said decisively. "With both of those plans out, what can we do now?"
"Whatever it is, it has to be something they really like."
"Something that they can't ignore."
"Something that completely holds their attention."
"Something that could be in the title."
"Hey, you're right!" Takato yelled. The two of them looked all the way up to the top of the story, where the title was.
"It's too high up, I can't read it," Lee said dejectedly.
"Man! Lee, have you been paying attention to the plot of the story?"
"There was a PLOT?!?!"
Suddenly, a giant sign fell out of the sky and landed in front of the two Tamers.
"Look! A giant sign suddenly fell out of the sky and landed in front of the two of us!" Lee astutely noticed. "What does it say?"
"It says, 'Renamon is the thing that you need to get Galgomon's and Gillmon's attention!'" Takato read. "Renamon! Ruki's digimon?"
"I guess so. Do you think it will work?"
"Nope! Let's try something else!"
Another larger sign drops out of the sky and almost squishes Takato for his previous comment, except that he moved backwards just in time.
"Hey, a larger sign dropped out of the sky and almost squished me, but I moved backwards just in time!" Takato ever so intelligently observe.
"It says, 'If Lee and Takato do not hurry up, this author will be forced to place them and Ruki in a NC – 17 fic where they will be doing the following actions-'" Lee started, but stopped when he saw the actions they would be forced to do if they did not hurry up with this story.
"Is that even legal?!" Takato asked, reading the list of actions with wide eyes.
"Forget if it's legal, is it even possible?!" Lee asked, his eyes growing larger and larger as he continued to read the list.
An even larger sign popped out of the ground, and it read, "Yes to both questions!"
Lee and Takato looked at each other, then shouted at the same time, "Hey guys, Renamon left already!"
Galgomon and Gillmon stopped fighting immediately, Galgomon's machine gun hands wrapped around Gillmon's neck, and Gillmon biting on Galgomon's ear and a claw ready to slash him in the face. They both jumped off the floor and started to search for Renamon, letting their strong sense of smell lead them. Finally, Galgomon picked up her scent and ran after her, with Gillmon close behind.
"Now what?" Takato asked, amazed at how fast their digimon stopped fighting and ran to find Renamon.
"I guess we follow them, and see where this ends up," Lee said. Takato nodded, and the both of them ran after their digimon.
*******************
Renamon leapt on top of a parked car. She then leapt into a tree, where she rested in the cooling foliage that was her friends. She peeked out the leaves, looking out for any loved crazed digimon. She saw none, but still leapt out of the tree and continued to run. Ruki was still on her shoulder, and was not enjoying the ride at all.
"Renamon, why are you still running? Those idiots are miles away!" Ruki shouted.
"I can hear them, and they are closer then they seem. They're hiding well, so I refuse to take any chances," Renamon responded.
Ruki scowled, and looked all around her. No one was out, and those digimon were probably still fighting each other. She's getting paranoid, though I don't blame her. Love is something I have no use for. It makes you weak and blundering. Ruki stole a quick look at Renamon, who looked slightly fearful from the whole situation. "Renamon, stop running."
Renamon ignored Ruki and continued to run. She leapt over a garbage can and turned a corner.
"Renamon, do not ignore me. Stop running and put me down," Ruki commanded.
Renamon ignored her again, swerving to dodge a gang of kids on bikes.
"Digimon! As your Tamer, I demand that you cease your running and put me down!" Ruki shouted.
At first, Renamon kept on running, but then slowed down and eventually stopped. She hoisted Ruki off her shoulder, placing her gently on her feet.
"Renamon, it's obvious that those two bumbling fools aren't anywhere near us, but if it helps to calm down your paranoia, keep on going. I, unfortunately, have to get back home before my mother starts worrying. Just make sure you get home on time." Ruki then left Renamon to her own devices.
*******************
Renamon finally stopped her running. One, because she was tired, and two, she was ashamed of herself. Imagine it, running away from digimon that were too incapacitated by their emotions to put up a worthy fight! Although, she mused, they were acting weird, even for themselves. I wonder what set off their sudden interest in me. So deep in her musing, she did not notice a gray fog settling around her. When she felt its cold touch on her heels, she yelped in surprise, and ran off in the opposite direction. Not now! She couldn't confront any rogue digimon without Ruki's help! She then noticed the fog was surrounding her, cutting off any way for her to escape. As the gray fog crept slowly toward her, Renamon slowly accepted her fate. She cracked her knuckles and stretched her neck muscles.
Today was a good damn day to go out fighting.
That is it for this chapter. I am cleaning up the chapters previously written chapters so that they make more sense, and look cleaner for the enjoyment of the readers. In addition, as an added bonus, they give me the practice I need for writing fan fiction all over again. Review please.
