A/N yeah since the summer is here I am able to write more so your wait time is way low. I got nothing better to do so I have chances to write. ON WITH THE STORY! Also I don't own digimon so thought I would clear that up.
Victor was first to wake up. Somehow he was lying down and had his arms around Renamon. She also had her arms around him but she also had her tail wrapped around them. Victor smiled but needed a way to get up without waking her.
"This could be a problem. Without me being able to move without her waking up I won't be able to move. Damn my luck. But she seems so peaceful just sleeping on my arm. Thankfully it is metal so it can't go numb since I can't feel anything from it anyway." Victor thought.
Renamon stirred a little but relaxed again and held Victor tighter to her.
"Why does the oddest of things have to happen to me? What did I do to deserve such things? I am unworthy to be the friend of someone who seems so at peace with everything. I am a soldier of Chaos not someone who is supposed to be friendly. The most I can do on emotional levels is anger and sorrow not happiness and peace. That was everyone else's ability not mine. But I have to admit seeing Renamon like this is sort of cute. Maybe changing myself will be beneficial. That does it I am going to protect her. I may not have been able to help my family when they needed it but I swear on my new life I will defend her and fight without mercy against anything that dares threaten her." Victor concluded in his mind.
Renamon finally woke up and saw how they were tangled up on the ground. She was blushing a small bit but her fur hid it from Victor.
"Why are you blushing Renamon? You think I can't notice it but my robotic eye can't let anything go by me without notice." Victor said.
Renamon's blush deepened. This guy was just too good. Does anything ever avoid his knowledge?
"No reason just at how we are really close to each other." Renamon said.
Victor chuckled a little bit.
"Yeah I have to admit this is a bit odd. One minute I am asleep on the cave wall and now I find I am tangled up with you a bit strange and I have no recollection as too how I ended up in this predicament. So if you have any guesses as too how we ended up in this position I would love to hear it now." Victor said.
"Maybe we did it sub-consciously while we were still asleep and needed to find a more comfortable position." Renamon suggested.
"Can't argue with you there it is possible but the problem now is I have to find my hidden stash of MREs they may have shelf life of ten years but if I don't find the rest they may be useless to me. I only have the one now. You take it I can survive a long time without food. Longer than any normal person anyway. I think the longest I could go is about three weeks if it gets that bad on food shortage." Victor said as he gave the foiled package to Renamon.
She opened it and ate some of it and she was greeted with no taste.
"Sorry it may be nutritious but not very tasty but if emergencies call for it you use what you got." Victor said.
Renamon ate the rest of the package and she felt like she ate Gulimon's weight in food. They left the cave and began searching all the spots Victor thought he would leave his stash. After about an hour of searching it was around noon and still no luck. Victor kicked a large boulder out of boredom and it flew a few feet away revealing a trunk.
"I knew it was somewhere I guess fake rocks work really well even against me." Victor chuckled as he lifted the trunk out of the hole and opened it. "On three run and don't return for three minutes. If my trap is still working then a poisonous gas will be released and will stay around for three minutes."
Victor opened the trunk and shouted three and he and Renamon ran far away to see a green mist surround the trunk and a few yards of area. A bird went down to investigate and immediately died before it hit the ground.
"I say it works still." Victor said.
"No doubt about that." Renamon said.
Sudden pain shot through her body. Most likely from the damage from last night's fight. Victor felt a little pain but he wasn't hit as much as Renamon.
"Hold completely still Renamon while I run a diagnostic of your vitals and bones to ensure nothing is seriously damaged." Victor said.
His red eye began glowing and he looked all over Renamon while his blue eye was closed. When his eye stopped glowing he sighed.
"Your vitals are normal while your ribs are slightly sprained. I have an idea but again you need to hold still. Chaos Transfer." Victor said.
His hands started glowing green as he touched Renamon on her ribs and him on his own. After the glowing stopped Renamon felt no pain at all.
"Chaos Transfer trades my condition with yours. So if you are in pain or anything while I am not I trade my non pained body status with yours so you are ok while I am not. A useful but dangerous technique." Victor said as he clutched his ribs a little because of the pain.
"You did not have to do that you know." Renamon said to him.
"Yeah but I deserve this pain since I held too little back and damaged you more than intended." Victor said.
His sudden change in attitude was both surprising and scary to Renamon. From suicidal to protective in a few hours time is a bit odd but he was not normal so it made some sense.
"So what is with the new attitude?" Renamon asked.
"If you don't like it I could go back to the other one." Victor said.
"No thanks I prefer this one." Renamon said.
"Then don't question it just go with it." Victor said.
Three minutes passed and the gas was gone so Renamon and Victor went to the trunk. The bird was still there but it was just bones. Renamon was starting to wonder what was in the trunk that could do such a thing. Victor looked at each package to see if anything was wrong with it. When he saw nothing wrong he closed up the trunk and picked it up.
"I do believe we have to find the others before they get suspicious. Be tough explaining to them we did nothing but sleep and search for my MREs." Victor said.
"If Goggle head hears about us having to spend the night together no doubt something will happen." Renamon said.
"He is that bad I take it?" Victor asked.
"Oh big time and his partner is about as dense if that worse." Renamon said.
Victor chuckled at this comment. They walked back to Rika's house with Victor still having a bit of side pain but not much anymore and he refused to let Renamon carry the trunk saying it would self-destruct if anyone but himself should touch it. Renamon never asked to carry it after the comment and just continued walking. Once they arrived they saw everyone there as if expecting them. Victor and Renamon were both surprised.
"Takato said you two fought each other. Is this true." Rika asked.
"Yeah so what? Renamon is fine and so am I but I am guessing you don't care much about that do you?" Victor said, his red eye glowing again.
"Calm down will ya. What is with that trunk you are carrying?" Rika asked.
She was walking to Victor until she was close enough to try and touch it but Victor moved it out of her reach.
"Touch it and the self-destruct sequence will begin. I don't think you would like to have to find a new home or body." Victor said.
Rika backed away quickly.
"Renamon helped me find the blasted thing. Had it hidden for emergencies which I say is about right for my problem. It was so well hidden it took us hours to find its hiding place." Victor said.
"Well that explains what took you guys so long. Enjoy the time you had in the cave?" Rika asked.
"Well I can't complain about it." Renamon said.
"Nor can I really." Victor stated.
Victor was about to open the before he gave them the same warning he gave Renamon. As soon as he opened the chest he ran. He was closely followed by everyone else and they stay a good ways away. The same green mist appeared and covered everything in a few yard radius in a green mist. Victor just had his arms crossed as he looked into the mist. A thought occurred to him. If he just ran into that mist he would finally die but that would contradict his vow to protect Renamon. So he just stayed where he was. After the mist vanished Victor emptied the contents into a backpack hidden inside the trunk. He then placed a few bombs timed to explode in ten seconds. He started the timer, closed the trunk, and threw it high into the air where it detonated and the explosion was huge. Victor laughed as parts of the trunk fell to the ground burned to a crisp. Everyone just looked at him strangely until a large part of the trunk fell down and hit him over head. Victor stopped laughing and turned to everyone.
"First off I would like to say OW! And secondly make sure to remind me never to stay in one spot when I blow up a trunk." Victor said before collapsing and losing consciousness.
Everyone had to help pick him up since his metallic parts made him heavy. They carried him into Rika's house and laid him on the couch. Renamon stayed next to him the whole time as if making sure he would be safe.
In Victor's Dream
Blood was splattered as a man in a lab coat ran away from a monster that was walking menacingly towards him its red eye glowing brightly and its metal claws scrapping against the metal walls. A few guards came out to protect the man but were killed easily with a machine gun that quickly replaced the claws. The man continued running but went into a dead end. The creature walked slowly up to him. The man quickly pressed a number sequence and a metal lift appeared and lifted the man high above the creature. The creature however had other plans as it activated its hidden turbines. It flew to the man and landed onto the metal lift. It smiled evilly as it neared the man.
"This is where you life ends professor. Once this lift reaches the surface I will be free and you will be dead along with all the others. Hope your project was worth your life." It said.
"You don't know what you are doing you are still not complete there is still some human left in you. Let us finish our work and I promise you will be the strongest warrior the world has ever known." The man said.
"Sorry professor but I saw some of your little projects and let me tell you that they were pathetic. And no doubt that when you finish I won't have free will or anything else for that matter now say good bye. Chaos Spear." It said before killing the man with a headshot.
Once the lift reached the surface the creature was blinded by sunlight. It was now seen clearly and it was Victor? Victor flew off to his home but once he arrived the place was burned to the ground. Nothing survived. He was tapped on the shoulder and a group of mercenaries looked at him.
"You one of the people who live here?" a man asked.
"Yes well I guess not anymore." Victor said pointing to the burnt house.
The man chuckled a little.
"Well we could use a guy like you. How would you feel about a job working as a mercenary? We get good money, nice clothes, nice houses, and awesome weapons." The guy asked.
"Sounds interesting." Victor said.
"I will take that as a yes. Follow us comrade." The man said.
Victor followed before everything was surrounded in blinding light.
End dream.
Victor stirred before trying to move. He looked around and noticed Renamon asleep leaning against a nearby wall. Victor stood up still a bit disoriented but he was able to get steady.
"And here I thought I would have another dreamless sleep like I have had. I never thought my past would come to haunt me after so long." Victor whispered to himself.
"Can you tell me about your dream?" Renamon asked.
"How long have you been standing there?" Victor asked the vixen.
"Long enough to hear you talking in your sleep." Renamon replied.
"So you need to know nothing about my dream if I already spoke it." Victor said.
"No I only heard bits and pieces like 'good bye professor.' And 'chaos spear.' That was all you said the rest is unknown to me." Renamon said looking at Victor with her blue eyes.
So Victor told her the whole dream from when he chased the professor down the halls to when he joined the mercenaries. Renamon listened to the whole story with intrigue and amazement.
"And that was all I saw before I woke up. Funny all my life I never had a dream until I joined them. But even then this is actually my first dream." Victor said.
"Well maybe it was because you never wanted to dream. Some people can control their dreams and if they choose they can have dreamless sleep. I know I have no dreams when I sleep." Renamon said.
"It seems we are not very different then. How long was I out anyway?" Victor asked.
"Couple hours. It is around five I think." Renamon replied.
"Drat I need to begin training. I need to be the strongest I can and nothing not even sleep will prevent me from reaching the goal I set." Victor said.
He ran out of the house and into the forest before Renamon could stop him. She did the only thing she could at the moment and tried to follow him. He was just too damn good he was able to get away. Renamon spent the rest of the day searching for him until she heard a few explosions. She knew it had to be Victor since he was the only one with explosives. When she arrived she just saw a digimon be vaporized and its data absorbed by Victor.
"Just my luck as soon as I find a good spot a digimon comes out of nowhere and attacks I need to be more vigilant next time this happens. Renamon why did you follow me by the way?" Victor asked.
Renamon was just amazed he noticed she was there but he was good at pretty much anything thrown his way except maybe compassion or love but other than those things he was the ultimate.
"Just had to make sure you stayed safe." Renamon replied.
"I at least found a place to train. Now thanks to all the trees and rocks I can practice my speed, agility, and power. Perfect area until I run out of rocks and trees. Then I have to relocate to another area." Victor said.
"Can I join you?" Renamon asked.
"Negative you know what I am capable of if I miss a shot or something else it may seriously injure you. That I can't allow." Victor replied. "That digimon I killed was actually a fun one to fight. It actually nicked my finger but had no chance. Its data just gave me a rush of power and energy to boot so my attacks may be stronger. I am still unclear about what changes it could do but it works for now."
"What level was it?" Renamon asked.
"Unknown I have no data on them but the way it fought it couldn't have been any higher than a rookie or so." Victor replied.
"Well that is according to you. Since you are really strong and good at fighting no doubt it could have been an ultimate and you would still be toying with it." Renamon said.
"Probably true the way you say it and thanks for the compliment." Victor said.
"No problem but I meant what I said about the strength and fighting well." Renamon said.
"Since I never saw you fight I have no idea of what you are capable of. No doubt those two hits you got on me were not full power or even half of what you are truly capable of. Drat it is too dark to train today. I will have to do it tomorrow." Victor said.
He punched a nearby tree in frustration and it collapsed since its trunk was shattered.
"On the bright side I managed to get fire wood." Victor said as he looked at the fallen tree.
Renamon chuckled a little at his meaning. Victor grabbed it and drug it to the cave. Once he was close he chopped it up with a built in saw his arms held and cut the tree into wheels. Once it was only wheels Victor moved them into the cave and chopped them up further and started a fire using his flamethrower. It took a few minutes but the fire started and Victor stayed next to it to warm up. He did not know why but he got cold easily and warming up took forever. He began shivering and Renamon saw this. She moved closer to him and embraced him to share her body heat. She was greeted by a blast of cold and a returned embrace from Victor. He noticed it and immediately blushed a small bit as did Renamon. They quickly let go of each other but Renamon stayed next to him.
"Sorry was not paying attention I need to be better aware of what I do." Victor apologized.
"I actually enjoyed it a small bit to tell you the truth." Renamon said.
"You know I have gotten all of your names but not once have I told you mine. How rude but I was very busy it must have slipped my mind." Victor said.
"I was gonna ask you about that but I also was busy." Renamon said.
"Might as well tell you since we are on the topic. My name is Victor Chaos." Victor said.
"Surprising name considering all the destruction and death you deal to anyone you set your sights on to kill or harm." Renamon said.
"Well what did you think my name was 'Metal Arm Reaper'?" Victor asked.
Renamon chuckled a small bit.
"Actually yes." Renamon said.
Victor couldn't help but chuckle at this. They both began talking about past experiences and everything they did before they met up.
"Sounds like Rika could use an attitude adjustment the way you summed her up." Victor said.
Renamon laughed a small bit at his comment.
"You are right about that but still I have to deal with her." Renamon said.
"Yeah but so does everyone else." Victor said.
He took out two MREs from his backpack and gave one to Renamon while he held onto the other. They both opened them and began eating. Renamon was still not used to the tasteless stuff but she still ate it.
"They work at filling you up. It is surprising considering their small size but it works." Victor said.
The fire was getting low so Victor added a few more pieces to it. It would not light so he used his flamethrower again to make it light. It worked really well.
"May not have much use to me as a long range weapon but makes great toast and fires." Victor joked.
Renamon chuckled a little at his joke.
"There is only one slight problem with the toast. It always turns to ash or catches fire. I can't seem to find out how long to have a flame on them without burning them completely." Victor said.
Renamon just shook her head. How in the world did she get stuck with a deadly goof-ball she will never know. Victor's radar started up again so there was either a digimon showing up or a hostile person.
"Figures I get no data on who or what should attack. I really need to get an upgrade for this thing." Victor said.
Renamon felt the presence of a digimon and Rika was heading towards it.
"It is a digimon and Rika is going after it." Renamon said.
"I hope it isn't a spider. I hate spiders and if it is I may go insane and most likely be squishing it with my hammer." Victor said.
He showed Renamon a huge sledge hammer extend off his arm to show what he meant. She couldn't help but laugh at his antics.
"Come on you goof-ball we have to go stop it." Renamon said.
"Fine. Chaos…Control." Victor said.
They both were teleported in a web covered area. Victor started bouncing on the web like it was a trampoline.
"This is actually quite fun." Victor said laughing.
He bounced off it and did a front flip before landing. He took a bow.
"Than you thank you hold your applause." Victor joked.
He was greeted with a slap upside the head by Renamon.
"Sorry couldn't resist doing that." Victor said.
A giant spider then appeared.
"Dokugumon champion level nasty attacks be careful you two." Rika said.
"Aw you do have a heart underneath all that anger and hatred." Victor said.
Again he was slapped upside the head by Renamon.
"Will you cut that out?" Victor asked.
"Only when you get serious." Renamon replied "By the way it is a giant spider."
"Spider? SPIDER! I HATE SPIDERS AAAAAHHHH!" Victor shouted.
He got his giant sledgehammers out and turned to Dokugumon.
"DIE SPIDER DIE AHAHAHAHAHA!" Victor shouted.
Dokugumon just sat there watching everything take place.
"If you are through I would like to eat my dinner." She said.
"And what is on the menu?" Victor asked.
"You." She replied.
"Oh I don't think so." Victor said before he disappeared.
He reappeared in front of Dokugumon and slammed her down to the ground with his sledgehammer. Renamon also began to attack while Rika watched.
"Venom blast." Dokugumon said before a purple blast hit Renamon. (Sorry trying my best here.)
Renamon landed hard and Victor immediately teleported to her side and prepared to defend her until she got up. When Renamon did Victor was tangled up in some webbing Dokugumon hit him with.
"This is why I hate spiders." Victor said before trying to cut through the web.
His sledgehammers were of no more use so he made his hands reappear. He then began cutting through the web with great effect. Renamon however also got captured and so did Rika. Dokugumon was blasted away from Rika by Victor's Chaos Torrent. She was then freed by Renamon's Diamond Storm. Renamon got herself free by two scythes that Rika gave her with an upgrade card. Renamon charged at Dokugumon but was captured by Dokugumon's jaws. She was in terrible pain and Victor couldn't stand anymore. He needed to protect her.
"Hey spider freak come at me and show me what you got." Victor said.
Dokugumon dropped Renamon and rushed at Victor. He captured her in a military head-lock. He then drug her over to Renamon. He placed one hand on Renamon and the other on Dokugumon's head while she was still restrained.
"Chaos Transfer." Victor said.
His hands grew green and soon Renamon was back in perfect health while Dokugumon was extremely weak and injured. He then threw her a few feet away from them.
"What did you do to me?" Dokugumon asked.
"Simple I made your perfect healthy state transfer over to Renamon while her injured and imperfect health was transferred to you. So you're the one severely injured while Renamon isn't. Now then I do believe it is time to kill you before you cause any more problems for us." Victor said.
"Please have mercy." She begged.
"Mercy? Did you show Renamon mercy? Because the way I see it you did not and she was badly injured so I think you don't deserve mercy. Say good night. Chaos Torrent." Victor said.
Dokugumon was destroyed by the blast and her data was absorbed by Victor.
"This power feels good. I should think about doing this from now on." Victor said.
Victor rushed to Renamon's side and sat down next to her. She was exhausted even if she was back to full health. He just stayed there guarding her even though the digital field was gone and no harm was within a few hundred miles. Renamon finally started moving and Victor immediately looked at her to make sure she was ok. Rika was amazed at how he was very protective of her. To Rika Renamon was a strong digimon only bred for battle. But to Victor she was his friend. Renamon tried to move a bit but was stopped by Victor. She looked at him.
"You may be at full health but that battle drained you of energy. If you want to go back to Rika's so you can rest I won't stop you." Victor said.
"Yes that would be best." She replied.
Victor picked up Renamon bridal style and walked over to Rika.
"We should go now. If there is one thing I know for sure it is never stay in one place for too long." Victor said. "I also just realized something. Since my house is in another country and I have Chaos powers that has teleportation in its arsenal I may be able to teleport it here. I can't believe I had not thought of this sooner. I just need a place out of the way of peering eyes. Somewhere though that is easy to get to. The cave seems like a logical place to place the house nearby. Renamon knows the location so she can show you plus I will be close by to aid you in battle."
"Um glad you figured that out I guess but we should get to my house. Renamon needs to rest and I need to get home to make sure my grandmother doesn't worry about me. Keep Renamon out of her sight she doesn't know I am a tamer and I don't want her too." Rika said.
"Very well but I stay until she is better and that isn't up for argument." Victor said.
The trio left Renamon still carried by Victor getting some odd looks by passer-by but when Victor looked at them with his red eye glowing they ran as fast as they could. Victor was like that the whole way to Rika's house. When they arrived Rika gave him instructions as to where Renamon was to be placed. Victor followed those instructions with precision and when Renamon was comfortable Victor stood guard as if tempting fate to throw something dangerous at him. When the door slid open Victor immediately drew two miniguns and was ready to open fire. The person jumped a good yard away from the door. Victor noticed it was Rika so he made his miniguns go away and replaced with his claws.
"Sorry but when I protect something I ensure that if whatever enters is hostile it will look like Swiss cheese before it even knew what hit it." Victor said returning to defense mode.
"I guess I should knock then." Rika said.
"Yeah especially with me around. Surprises were never a good idea to use on me unless you are able to survive a few bullets to the chest or head." Victor said.
"I got a question for you." Rika said.
"Well you can ask but my responses will be short or you just won't get one." Victor said crossing his arms.
"How did you get those metal arms?" Rika asked.
"No response will be given." Victor stated flatly.
"Victor please tell her." Renamon asked him.
"Very well I will tell you the same I told Renamon but this is strictly between the three of us if I find out you told Takato or Henry I will personally make your life a living hell." Victor said.
He then told Rika about how he came to get the metal arms and what became of the professor that operated on him.
"I hacked into his computer systems and learned what he planned on doing to me so I killed him. No one makes me a robotic slave." Victor said.
"So that is why you escaped." Rika said.
"Yes and now I have a question for you. May I see you digivice I have an idea." Victor asked.
Rika handed him the digivice and he placed it on his arm where wires attached themselves to it. A projection of what was going on appeared on the wall. Victor's eye glowed brightly as he made the objects move around. A bar then popped up saying 'upgrade in progress' once the number reached one hundred the bar and projection disappeared. The wires disappeared and the digivice was given back to Rika.
"With this new upgrade to my radar I can tell what digimon is what and anything else I need about them. I can't believe it worked." Victor said.
"So Victor why are you here? You don't look like you are from anywhere here." Rika asked.
"Remember when I said my home was in another country? Well originally I am American though I am a huge fan of Germany. And I am also a former mercenary so I had a good life. My mission was to kill any and all Hypnos personnel and their main building since they planned on killing all digimon. If they succeeded then the ones in America and Germany would also be killed. So me and my team were sent to kill them. We were walking through the forest before we got ambushed by commandos. My entire team was killed. They were my family of war. So when you saw me kill everyone in the building I was following mission protocol and I was bent on revenge as well so it was a bonus. That is all I can say." Victor said.
"Ouch your entire family like squad killed and you were getting revenge and completing a mission. I heard mercenaries make tons of money since they are soldiers for hire." Rika said.
"Yeah I am and I need to send back the dossier back to my customer so I can get the money she promised me to transfer the money to my account. However I just realized that my customer is also in this city. I always do background checks so I know who I work for. She goes by the name Shieko or something like that." Victor said.
"That's my grandmother's name." Rika said.
"Well looks like my customer is closer than I expected take me to her will you please." Victor asked.
Rika led Victor to an aging that had a look of surprise when she saw Victor.
"Chaos 1. What are you doing here?" She asked.
"Come now the Hypnos building is in this city or more correctly was. Since I completed my mission I do believe you owe me for my services. That is one of the reasons why I did it. I am a mercenary after all." Victor said.
"Fine but don't tell the rest of your squad that you saw me ok?" She said.
"That won't be a problem considering they are dead due to some commando sneak attack." Victor said.
"I thought you were the best of the best?" Shieko said.
"A sneak attack with better trained people was not what we prepared for. We prepared for Hypnos personnel not commandos." Victor said.
"Regardless you did your job and I will transfer the money in the morning." Shieko said
"Thank you and this conversation never happened." Victor said before returning to the room Renamon was in.
Once he entered he saw Renamon stretching.
"I see your strength has returned. I shall leave now." Victor said before turning around to leave.
Renamon stopped him yet again.
"I heard every word you said." Renamon said to Victor.
"So you know why I am leaving right?" Victor asked.
"You are not leaving tonight. It is too late to be walking around." Renamon said.
"I am prepared for any emergency so I should be fine." Victor said not moving at all.
"Yes but I would like it if you stayed for tonight." Renamon said.
"Very well but just for tonight." Victor said.
He walked over to the bed Renamon was laying in and laid down next to it.
"If it wasn't for the fact that this place was made of wood I would have slept near the fire like last night." Victor said randomly.
"Yeah but at least it is warmer." Renamon said covering up and laying her head on a pillow.
"True." Victor said before going to sleep.
Renamon quickly followed suit.
A/N Well not to bad and sorry if names are wrong like I said I haven't seen the show in a long time.
Victor: Maybe you should go and try to find the episodes and watch them.
Me: You seriously want to cause a fight don't you?
Victor: maybe maybe not but it will end up me the winner and you as dead as that spider digimon.
Me: Last I checked you got hit by some of its webbing.
Victor: Big deal.
Renamon: Do I have to separate you guys again?
Me: You can try but we would win hands down.
Slap.
Me: What was that for?
Renamon: For being as idiotic as Victor.
Victor: I resent that.
Me: R&R please while we continue arguing.
Victor: We are not arguing.
Renamon yes we are stop being childish you are as bad as guilmon.
Victor: No one could be as bad as him.
