Okay, this is going to be the second to last story that I will be posting for the next while, seeing as I have at least 5. 4 of which I update and one I haven't updated in some time. I will still be posting new chapters but I won't be posting any new stories for the time being. anyway, this is a story that I have adopted from sedsone, some of you may know it if you don't then you can check out his original work for it on his profile. Now then I will only state this once since I don't see the point in putting it in every chapter as it is glaringly obvious that I do not own Digimon.
*start*
It was currently night out in Shinjuku, though it was pure darkness out due to the storm that had come out of nowhere. The big dark clouds covered the entire sky, the only time light could be seen at this time was when lightning appeared. Like now when a bolt of lightning almost struck a tree near a building. Though the light from it revealed a two-story building with a small patio outside of some glass sliding doors. The loud bang of thunder seemed to block out the loud scream from one of the occupants of the building. inside the building's 2nd floor a teenager was currently sitting upright, his body drenched in a cold sweat and his eyes full of tears. This boy was Takato Matsuki, the supposed 'leader' of the tamer's group. He has one of his hands clenching the front of his pajama shirt and was breathing deeply trying to calm his accelerated heartbeat. Takato had quickly taken the blanket off of himself, letting the somewhat cool air hit his hot and sweaty body. He had moved his left arm over his eyes, just as the tears started to roll down his cheek.
'Why do I keep having the same dream over and over again, haven't I been through it enough' takato says to himself mentally.
You see about 2-3 weeks ago, there had been a bio-emergence. One of a Digimon that had never been heard of before, his name was Grimmon (yes, this is a reference to the Digimon world dawn & dusk video game) there was no information on him except that it was a champion level Digimon. The tamers then Bio-merged with their partners, wanting to overpower the Digimon in front of them and be finished with this quickly, though that plan went straight out the window. Grimmon was swift, he had the ability to change his own strengths and weaknesses, along with paralyzing his opponents with different attacks. He had literally wiped the floor with them all except for Gallantmon. Though he was only able to get the upper hand by using a fusion move of his dark crusher and power cutter known as power dark crusher, which he performed when he was behind him. The attack caused takato and guilmon's bio-mergence to cancel out, causing them both to fall on the ground. He was about to finish off takato with a black blast, but a few moments before the attack hit Guilmon had jumped in front of the attack, causing takato to go wide-eyed and shout out his partner's name as he had witnessed his body's fading before it burst into data. Grimmon was about to absorb the energy when he was suddenly pulled back into the digital world by a bunch of chains, though he had threatened the tamers he would be back, and he would be stronger than before. Rika, Henry, Ryou, Kazu, Kenta, and their respective Digimon partners had witnessed the entire thing, though they did not notice guilmon's data going inside of Takato's body, even he was unaware of it. Out of everyone there, only Renamon had seemed generally concerned for takato though was currently unable to move due to her body being in so much pain. They watched as takato stood up and ran back home, though only Renamon noticed the tears flowing down the boys face, as everyone else seemed to be either oblivious or just didn't care at all.
Takato had run back to his home and locked himself in his room for about 5-6 days, no-one checked on him except for his parents and Renamon. though he found out why a week after that day, he was heading towards guilmon's cement hut, planning on turning it into a memorial site for guilmon. When he heard the voices of his 'friends' nearby.
"You know since Guilmons deletion, Takato has become the weakest link within the group," Rika had said causing him to gasp lightly, though his heart began to break at the betrayal as everyone including Henry agreed.
"Yea, he has become a liability to all of us," he stated. Again everyone agreed with his statement. Takato was about to run home when he heard Rika's last comment.
"He's a disgrace, Guilmon probably jumped in front of the attack so he would no longer be partnered with a weak tamer like takato,"
Upon arriving back at his home, takato had once again locked himself back into his bedroom. He was truly all alone now, besides his parents and probably Renamon. Tears started to roll down his cheek as the words his friends said still fresh in his mind.
Renamon though saw and heard the entire conversation she even saw takato listening into the conversation. She snarled at their treatment towards takato, not only was it thanks to takato that Shinjuku was still around from the D-reaper incident a year ago. Without his help or leadership, who knows what would've become of Shinjuku. She cared deeply for takato and admired how he could care for Digimon as if he were one in the same. When he felt him run back home, she followed him, she then sensed him in his bedroom. Entering through the unlocked sliding doors she called out takatos name softly, though he only reply was a slight sniffle that came from underneath Takato's bed. She moved the flaps to the side to see takato curled up, the smell of salt still fresh. She moved closer to him and pulled him into a hug and began whispering soft heartfelt words into the crying tamer's ears. Takato had uncurled himself and was now crying against Renamon's chest.
"Your strong takato, so much stronger than the rest of the tamer's combined. You wanna know why you actually care about your Digimon well being. You're the epitome of a perfect tamer, you always have been and always will be the strongest tamer out there." she had stated as she began petting Takato's soft chestnut brown hair. He would be forever thankful to Renamon for being the one true friend next to guilmon, she had earned his full trust and nothing could change that.
Back to the present, takato was currently in the same position as he was before when suddenly the back of his neck tingle slightly. Sitting up he moved his arm from his eyes to stare at the figure that had just entered his room. It was Renamon, though she looked different, and not in a good way. Her once brilliantly sleek bright fur had darkened and had become all frazzled, her purple gloves had multiple tears in it. She was currently standing on rather shaky legs, quickly takato had gotten out of his bed and pulled out his desk chair signaling for Renamon to sit down. She thanked him for doing so. He then opened up his newly added mini-fridge (he had gotten it to hold drinks for he and Renamon for when she visited) and pulled out one of the many bottles of green tea and handed it to Renamon, after he opened it for her. She thanked him again with a nod before downing the drink, about halfway through the bottle Renamon had stopped and removed it from her muzzle and wiped it using her glove. She took in some much-needed air after her impressive chug of a 2-liter bottle.
"Are you alright rena," takato ask's worried, Renamon had told him that he could call her that halfway through the second week of her visits to him.
"Y-yea, I-I'm fine rika has been a bit more b-brutal in her training idea's," she had stated. She then signals for takato to come closer, and when he was close enough she pulled him into a hug which he gladly returned.
"I heard you screaming again, was it the same nightmare?" she asked, her only reply was the tightening of takatos grip. She had begun to pet his hair, which seemed to have become darker through the past few weeks. After a few minutes of her petting his head, takato had fallen asleep tiny snores could be heard coming out of his mouth. Slowly and less shakily she stood up, takato still in her arms. She then lifted him into his bed and slowly covered him with his blanket. Gently she continued to rub the young teen's hair.
"Renamon!" she then sighed when she heard Rika shout out her name, but before she left she gave takato a small kiss on the cheek and wished him to have a better sleep before exiting through his sliding doors, closing it behind her before jumping off of the patio and continued her journey towards Rika by jumping from rooftop to rooftop. Unaware of the 3 pairs of eyes that had been watching her and takatos interactions.
"It seems that, that Renamon has become close with the boy, closer to him than her own tamer." a rather monotone voice states, getting some nods from the other two in agreement.
"Should I follow her sir, we might be able to gather more information on him as well as the other tamers." a gruff voice states.
"yea, though go quickly. Make sure that none of them notice you, I also want you to follow each of the other tamers as well see what you can find out." the voice states, the leader of the group. One of the pairs of eyes ducks a bit, in a nodding motion before vanishing.
"How much longer do we have to wait for sir," the first voice ask's the leader.
"From what I can gather at the moment, not much longer. As after watching each tamer briefly I believe that this tamer is the strongest out of the others." the leader states.
"The others don't seem right for this job either, only takato seems strong enough. He was also the one who beat the original enemy of our race and his." the leader continued though was now silently staring back at the Matsuki bakery.
To be continued….
What do you guys think, and this story is going to be a fusion of the tamer series and the video game Digimon world: dusk, which I have to say is one of the best classic Digimon games you can play in my opinion. If you have any suggestions on how I can make this story better then please let me know in the reviews. Also, I do apologize for my grammar, as I have stated many times before, that is not my strong suit. Ja Ne.
