Chapter 3: Knotwood Forest, Legend of Zonga Zonga the lizard of resurrection.
A new day risen over Vivosaur Island. Neo defeated Joe, who happened to be a medal dealer to obtain medals from low class fighters to higher ones to save them from the suffering some of his own endured, with his victory, he even obtained a Gorgo, Neo's favorite vivosaur.
Neo also defeated his opponents and leveled up, now able for him and Trixie to visit the next dig site, Knotwood Forest. But first…
"And...done." Neo breathed before blowing the dust off the Gorgo fossil legs Travers gave him on his first day.
"I will now integrate these into your vivosaur." KL beeped. Neo placed his medal on the machine before KL placed his fossil in the machine. The machine hummed before it dinged. Door opens with smoke pouring out as Neo marveled at his Gorgo's new form and majesty.
She was now black and her red skeleton markings were now gold and looked like armor, her fangs were also gold, and she had a gold omega symbol in the middle of her chest.
Neo smiled at his new vivo and approached her. "Well hello beautiful, you look twice as gorgeous then before."
She purred and nuzzled him. 'Thank you master.' she said.
Trixie giggled as she stood next to Neo's new vivosaur. "If you think he's charming now, wait till you sleep with him in bed."
The dino blushed, but nodded. 'I look forward to it, mistress.'
Neo blushed a bit as well before Gorgo returned to her medal as he placed it in his Dino glove. "Alright, you ready to get going to Knotwood forest dear?"
"I am when you are." trixie smiled, wrapping her arm around his waist.
The two left the lab and got a ride from Travers as they were on their way to the forest. 'You think Zonga zonga will respond to me bud?' He asked his dark side.
'Hard to say but it's possible.' Nokor said back.
'Well, if he won't listen to me, I guess I'll have to let you take possession of me so he knows who you are.' Neo mentioned.
'If push comes to shove…' the dark presence sighed.
The duo couple made it to the site and gave Travers their thanks. Entering, the site was like Greenhorn plains, but was very dense with thick trees that shadowed most of the sunlight.
"This place gives me the creeps…" Trixie said, clinging to him, shivering in fear.
Neo held her close. "Look at it this way, you got this handsome guy protecting you."
"That's true…." she cooed, nuzzling close to him, then a bunch of birds burst out of nowhere, crowing loudly. Trixie screamed in surprise and panic as she clung to Neo tightly, face buried in his chest.
"It's okay Trixie, it was only a flock of crows." Neo chuckled while rubbing her back.
'Not just any crows, look.' Nokor said, neo looked and saw one of them landed, it was much larger than the average crow, and had a white face and four red eyes. 'Those are Nevermore, my personal centuries.'
"Centuries huh…" Neo whispered. The crow gazed at Neo, eyes meeting. That was until before the large nevermore gave a loud caw in the air, flapping its wings.
"I'm scared Neo…." Trixie whimpered, she was shaking like a leaf.
"Easy Trixie." He cooed, stroking her back while the crow kept cawing. That was until more nevermore came from the trees and soon surrounded the couple in a circle. "Okay, now i'm getting the willies…."
The first Nevermore hopped a few times close to Neo, giving chirping caws. Nokor, knowing they want to know if Neo was truly him, poured a bit of dark magic into Neo's eyes and spoke. 'I have returned, my loyal centuries.'
Sensing the presence of his dark magic, the nevermores all exchanged caws, before they bowed their heads. 'Evermore, evermore, welcome back master.' they said in unison.
Trixie blinked, finding this supernatural and unusual. "Uh….Neo, what are they doing?"
"You know how i said i was a reincarnation of a fossil god?" he whispered. "Well these things are loyal to him-er, me."
"What?" The girl blinked.
'Hear me, while I live, I am apart of this boy you see before you all. You will obey him and respect him as you respect me.' Nokor spoke out to the large crow birds.
'Yes master, we obey your every order, evermore.' they said.
'Neo, they belong to you now, they will help you track Zonga Zonga faster.' The darkness spoke.
Neo blinked a bit. "Okay uh...nevermore, track down Zonga Zonga and lead us to him."
The crows bowed their heads, then flew away into the forest. As the two continued to walk, they saw two familiar faces. "I'm telling you Holt, We're lost!" Rosie snapped.
"Don't blame me, You wanted to follow another path than the one I chose." Holt argued back.
"Oh so this is my fault?" the girl yelled, hands on her hips.
"I never said that." The blonde yelled back.
Neo and Trixie chuckled to each other before they approached them. "Looks like what my mom said is true, those in love fight a lot."
"You said it." Neo smiled. "Hey holt! Rosie!"
The two froze in their argument before they turned their gazes to them.
"Neo!" They spoke in relief.
"You two lost or something?" he asked them.
"A bit yeah…" Holt blushed in embarrassment.
"We're trying to find a rare vivosaur that's rumored to be here." Neo said. "In a place called the Digadig Village."
"The digadig Village?" Rosie asked.
"Oh I know them." Holt smiled. "I visited them a few times when I first came to this site."
"What vivosaur are we looking for?" rosie asked.
"Zonga Zonga, a Dark vivosaur." Neo told them.
Holt blinked before opening a book he carried and scanned through it. "That vivosur isn't in the list of dinosaurs…"
"That's because it's not, it's a Vivosaur created out of the souls of the original dinosaurs that were incinerated when they went extinct. And is infused with an energy called Dark energy, it can turn vivosaurs into dark vivosaurs and grant them great power, but they become wild and uncontrollable, and too much will destroy them. But Zonga Zonga is practically made of it." Neo explained.
The duo were shocked that a vivosaur can be that powerful to exist, if anyone were to tame such a beast, they would be unstoppable to beat.
"That's why we have to find it. If he fell into the wrong hands…" Neo said.
"It could be the end of all mankind." holt finished.
One of the nevermores flew to Neo's shoulder and bowed. 'Master, we found Zonga Zonga!'
"Take me to him." he told it. The crow nodded and flew, crowing. "Come on guys!" He spoke as he followed the bird.
"Hey! Wait up!" Rosie called as she, Holt and Trixie followed him.
As the nevermore stopped flying in front of a fence, they saw a Fossil Center faculty member there. The group approached before the man spotted them and held a hand out. "Hold it. You all cannot go beyond this area till further notice."
"We need to get in, there's a Vivosaur in there with unimaginable power, and we need to get to it first." the redhead explained.
"I am sorry, but this section of the dig site is closed till Dr. Diggins gives word." The staff member said.
"Why must this island torture me?!" Neo groaned.
"Calm down hubby." Trixie cooed, pecking his cheek.
"Let's go talk to my grandpa, he'll know what to do." Rosie told them.
(Later…)
"I see…." Richmond spoke as he took in what the four told him. "So Diggins closed off the area from the digadig village."
"Yes and we need to get in, there's a very powerful vivosaur in the digadig village named Zonga Zonga." Neo told him.
The man rubbed his chin. "I see...this is a serious matter...though Diggins told me no one should enter that area till further notice…" He grinned a bit. "But I do know a way to persuade him."
"And that is?" trixie asked, leaning over his desk.
"Dino cakes." he answered. "They're the hottest and most popular treats on the island. They're so popular, when they go in stock, they're gone in just an hour."
"Sounds like your mom's cookies back home." Trixie said to Neo.
"I heard there's a stock in the shop right now." Richmond spoke. "You all better head there quickly before they're out."
"Will do." they nodded.
The four left the richmond building and went to the shop to get some of the cakes. Like Richmond said, the shop was packed while fighters and customers were trying to buy as many cakes as they can.
"Ok so anyone have any ideas?" Holt asked.
"We could charm them out of it." Trixie and rosie suggested, unbuttoning their blouses.
Neo blushed a bit and chuckled. "Trixie, you are so dirty."
"So are you Rosie." Holt said, blushing as well.
"We'll get their attention and you buy some of those treats, and some for us too." Trixie winked.
As they walked up to the counter they started sweet talking the people behind the desk, letting them see a little of their cleavage. "Oh boys." Trixie purred, giving her breasts a shake as they jiggled. "Why waste your time buying those things when you can get a load of these sweet cakes?"
The people looked at her jugs and drooled, they looked really good. They dropped their sweets and crowded the two girls. "No need to push, plenty of us to go around." Trixie giggled and opened her dress more to show her breasts, no bra underneath. "You all can also take pictures if you desire."
They did while the boys picked up some of the boxes, the girls squeezing and fondling their breasts and pinching their nipples, moaning in pleasure. Trixie grinned at Rosie who nodded before they opened their dresses fully to show their naked tits to the world.
The people took more pictures, loving what their tits looked like, so big and soft, and so squishy.
"Who thought they were this bold." Holt blushed. "You really okay with thi Neo?"
The boy chuckled. "As long as Trixie is my number one and no one takes her away from me, she can have all the fun she wants."
'And there's a little addition I gave her when she was revived. Only you can get her pregnant, and no one else can, unless you allow it.' His dark side spoke.
'That's great, that means if i'm busy and she needs attention, she can just relieve herself with the people on the island.' he grinned.
Trixie licked her lips. "Mmmm, you all wanna touch my tits?~"
They nodded, looking at the succulent, ripe fruit hanging from her chest. They gathered closer as two men latched to her nipples and sucked them eagerly while others groped and fondled her jugs.
"Oh that feels really good…" trixie moaned. "I love having my nipples sucked."
While Neo enjoyed the show as much as Holt did, they had to go. He approached her. "Trixie, time to get going."
"Yes master." she nodded, obeying him and pulling away, closing her blouse. Hearing grumbles, she turned to the crowd. "If you all want more, just drop by my room, and be sure to pay up, having me is not for free." She purred, blowing the crowd a kiss.
Neo grinned. "Thinking of being a prostitute are you?"
Trixie giggled while clinging to his arm. "If you allow it, but it's a good way to make tons of cash."
"That's true." he nodded, as they went to the fossil center he looked at holt. "Hey holt, what are the benefits of moving up in the ranks here?"
"Well, there's a bunch of perks to it. What do you want to know?" he asked.
"Everything." he told them.
"Well, low fighters at 1 get access to spas with any treatment you desire. Level 2 can access the casinos underground, and there are a few clubs to go in. 3, you get a new sweet crib to lay back in with a bigger bed and treats. As a level 4, you get to access the private restaurants that are very expensive with the best food you can't get anywhere else. As a level 5, you can bet cash and win more cash, jewels, or fossil rocks, and I mean very rare ones. Level 6, you get your own private Island with your own servants. A master Fighter, well, that's the best one, you get access not only to the master sites, but you get all the treasure in the special secret dig sites, a ton of maidens and butlers to serve you on your island and access to all the vivosaurs on the list." holt explained.
"That sounds interesting." the boy said as they entered the center. "Hello miss Wendy, can you tell us where Dr. Diggins is?"
"He's in his office." She replied, smiling sadly. "Though he's a bit busy right now and wishes not to be disturbed."
"Don't worry we'll only be in there for a second or two." Trixie told her, winking.
"Uh...I'm afraid I…" Wendy spoke with a small blush.
The four walked into his office, to see it was completely in shambles.
"Okay...this is not what I expected." Neo spoke before they saw the man fiddling with papers. "Dr. Diggins!"
The man looked at them. "Uh...oh hello Neo." he said, frantically trying to find something. "Oh where are those Advils...oh my head…"
"Are you okay doc?" Holt asked in concern.
"I've been swamped lately...my head's been killing me and to top it all off i haven't had breakfast today." the doctor groaned.
"You should take it easy doc, you're overworking yourself." Rosie spoke up.
"I could really use something to eat...and maybe an aspirin.." he said, sitting down.
Trixie and Rosie grinned at each other before Trixie took a box and opened it, revealing the armona of the sweets. "Dino cakes?"
"Wait...you have dino cakes?!" Diggins asked. Seeing the sweets, his stomach growled loudly and tried to snatch then before Trixie pulled them away.
"Uh uh uh, you need to do something for us first." She grinned.
"Trixie, that's a little cruel." Neo whispered. "You heard the guy, he's stressed enough as it is."
"It's alright hubby, I got this." Trixie whispered before turning to the doc. "Diggins, all we ask is passes to get further into Knotwood forest."
"Knotwood...Uh.." The doc gulped.
"It's kinda important Doc." Neo spoke up. "We're planning to obtain that vivosaur that's causing the radiating energy that was spoke of."
"Oh yeah that...i totally forgot about it…" Diggins said. "I dunno, it's still pretty dangerous, the fighter we sent there hasn't checked in…"
"We can go look for the fighter while we're at it." Holt mentioned when he spoke up.
The doctor thought for a second. "Aw what the heck, sure. Now can i please have those dino cakes? I'm starving...oh there goes that headache again."
Trixie giggled before holding the box to him. "All yours."
The man took it, as well as a advil from holt and took it, eating one as he wrote out a few passes for them. After getting them, the four left the center and returned to the dig site a moment later.
"I feel really sorry for Dr. Diggins." Rosie sighed sadly.
"He works too hard." Holt spoke in agreement.
"Maybe we should find a way to relax him at some point." Neo suggested.
"Or maybe convince his wife to give him some nookie." Trixie giggled.
"You and your horny mind." Neo grinned, giving her ass a good slap.
"What? Sex is good for the heart, it's science." the girl said.
"I never said it was a bad thing." the boy cooed before slipping his hand into her pants.
The girl purred as he fingered her for a few seconds. "Mmmm, thank you master." she told him as he pulled out.
"Anytime." he cooed, pecking her cheek.
"Wow…" Rosie blushed with a giggle. "You two are the kinkiest people I know, and I thought I was kinky."
"We enjoy the finer things in life." Neo grinned as the boat arrived, kissing his girlfriend's neck.
"And we have no problem sharing each other." Trixie winked.
"Now that's really kinky." holt said in surprise.
As they exited the boat, they approached the staff leader again. "Hello again." neo spoke.
"Look kids, I said you can't go further into the-" the four held up their cards signed by Diggins. "-Site."
"I think these will cover it." Neo told him as they walked past him into the forest. He gave a whistle as one of the nevermore perched on his shoulder. "Sorry for the wait, lead on."
The crow nodded and flew off. They walked until they reached a grove of gray stumps. "Shit, it's those gray objects." He growled in annoyance.
'Allow me.' His darkness spoke before Neo saw his picaxe glow black. 'Now you can hack through those things easily.'
The boy rose his pick and swung, blasting them apart. They crumbled like splinters and flew everywhere.
"Huh, impressive." Neo grinned.
Trixie gasped when she dug in a pile. "Guys, look at this!" She pulled her hands up and in her hands were a few emeralds, pearls, rubies, sapphires and Diamonds.
"Whoa…" the group gasped. "This is insane."
"No wonder they're so hard to break." Trixie giggled. "They're full of jewels!"
"This is amazing!" Rosie said as she pulled out a gold ring. "Hmmm…" she then opened Trixie's blouse and pinned it on her left nipple. "Perfect."
The girl shuddered with a grin. "Oooo, dirty are we?" She opened her bag and grabbed a chain. "How about this?" She yanked Rosies skirt and panties down before pinning the chain to her clit up to her belly button.
"Mmm, nice." she grinned, but undid it. "Think i'll save this for later, thanks trixie."
"You know things cost for me." The girl purred, licking her lips.
The girl grinned, kissing her lips. "Oh i'll repay you, don't worry."
The boys blushed before pulling them along. "Come on, we're wasting time."
The nevermores finally guided them to a deep section of the woods before they gawked in awe. In the clearing, was a massive Rex vivosaur with purple scales sleeping. It had a skull with red horns and skeletal arms on its back.
'I thought you said he was sealed in stone?' Neo thought.
'He must have broken out of his seal, but it took a bunch of his energy and needs his rest.' his half side answered.
"He looks kinda cool." Holt said. "Scary, but cool."
Neo gave a breath. "Okay, stand back guys." He began approaching the demonic vivosaur. "Hey, Zonga Zonga, wake up."
The beast opened its eyes, spotting Neo before he growled and stood. "How dare you bathe in my godly presence mortal human!"
"It can talk?!" Rosie gasped, jumping in holt's arms.
"Yes, I talk fools! I am no ordinary vivosaur!" Zonga growled as his horns glowed purple. "But now..you all DIE!"
Neo rose his hand and held it in a choke motion. Zonga gasped and clawed at its neck. "Be careful not to choke on your aspirations, my pet." he said.
"How dare you!" The beast roared as his eyes started glowing.
'ZONGA! Stand down!' nokor yelled as the dark aura flowed around Neo.
"...master?" the dino gasped.
'Yes, your master has returned. I have been reborn in this boys body, we are one now. You will obey him as you have for me. If you refuse, I will destroy you myself!' Neo's darkness spoke dangerously.
Zonga shivered. "I understand master…"
Neo breathed in relief before speaking. "Zonga, I may not be like your master, but I wish for us to be partners and friends."
The beast looked at him. "...fine."
Neo gave a small smile before reaching out and gently touching his snout. "Thanks, partner."
The dinosaur simply glowed and became a medal. It had a white and purple striped ling with a gold background.
"Whew, thank goodness." neo breathed in relief as he put the medal away.
"Let's go, the digadig village is this way." holt said as he led them through the trees.
They passed by a few of the trees before they came to a village gate. There. Two masked people were standing at the entrance. "Huh? Who's there digadig?" One asked.
"It's me, Holt Mcjunker!" Holt called.
"Holt? It's good to see you, Digadig." The sone spoke in relief. "We are glad you are here."
"You too, is the chief around?" the blonde asked.
"Yes. Please follow us digadig." They replied before guiding the group into their village.
Once they got up to a large tent, a man wearing a t-rex skull walked out. "Hullo, who's there, digadig?"
"Hello chief." Holt greeted the elder chief of the village.
"Holt! Very good to see you, digadig." the man said.
Neo looked around and saw the temple. He sensed a large amount of paracausal and dark energy coming from it.
'Hey Nokor, you feel that energy?' He asked his dark counterpart.
'Yes, and it's a lot. If Zonga isn't the source, what is?' he replied.
Neo thought before giving a whistle, a nevermore flew to him and perched on his shoulder. "Go in the temple and find out what's going on, if you find anything supernatural, come back here immediately and inform us."
It nodded with a crow. 'Evermore!' it then flew off and into the temple.
"So a bunch of thugs in purple spandex invaded your home and went into the temple?" Holt spoke up, getting Neo's attention.
"Yes." the Chief nodded. "They came to steal our golden vault key."
"Should have figured." Holt shook his head. "If anything, we can help you get rid of them."
"I'll go, the temple is radiating some pretty intense energy, i wouldn't be surprised if the thieves inside are dead already, paracausal energy is like nuclear radiation. It's deadly, but it can also alter reality and rip the fabric of space." Neo said. "So only a Paracausal being should enter."
The chief gave a nod. "That would be for the best digadig. As soon as those thugs entered the temple, a dark presence has invaded our beloved temple. Proceed with caution."
"I will." the boy said as he started walking towards it. Once inside he saw that the floor was cracked, pulsing with purple energy and several galaxy-like rifts lined the walls and ceiling, and several fragments floated around and orbs of darkness floated around as well, it's as if physics was wonky here, certain spaces had little to no gravity, or sever times more gravity than usual.
"Whoa….this is really not normal.." Neo blinked in shock at the supernatural causes occuring at the mere entrance of the temple. But as soon as he activated his power, he seemed to alter the very reality of the place to better suit him. "Huh, it's Psychomutible, i can alter it with just my thoughts or presence."
As he began walking through the entrance, everything moved with him, the tablets below his feet merged to let him cross or to let him go up a step to avoid any obstacles nearby.
As he walked he saw that there was some sort of dog standing in the hall, he was sniffing a dark energy orb, which rippled like water.
"Hey!" Neo snapped.
The dog turned to him and growled, dino medals in it's paws.
Neo gave a neutral look before pulling Zonga's medal out. "Zonga...take care of him." He spoke neutrally and summoned the dark rex boned vivosaur. The large demonic rex gazed at the dog in spandex before growling, licking his lips.
"I always wanted to try dog meat." He cackled, drooling.
"Then go ahead, attack." he said.
The dog whimpered in fear, but quickly threw out its medals and summoned a sloth like vivosaur with a goyal.
The dark vivosaur gazed at his opponents before roaring in laughter. "Seriously!? Even a fucking Nevermore would give me a decent challenge than this shit!" He made his point when the skeletal arms moved forward and flicked the two vivos to the wall, resulting in a massive explosion. The two medals fell to the ground, bent.
The dog howled and turned tail, running like some kind of cartoon character. Neo chuckled, then the Nevermore he sent ahead of him flew on his shoulder. 'Master, i have found several things that may be of interest to you.' it told him.
"What is it?" he asked.
'There are three to two people in here, and one is about to stumble upon your glorious tablets of ruin, the very slates you inscribed the secret of your power on. And there is an odd statue here, it is not the cause of the energy, the tablets are, but it looks very suspicious.' said the crow.
"Good work." Neo nodded. "Zonga, ready to frighten more cheeky bastards for invading the temple?"
"With pleasure." he nodded.
The boy lead ahead in the temple while Zonga hid in the shadows, wanting to scare the hell out of the next victim. Upon reaching the second floor, Neo saw a man with a large saber like noze, a bowl cut hair that was blonde while talking to the dog Zonga humiliated.
"Huh? You can't be serious." the man said.
Neo smirked. "I know just what to do for this." he pulled out his favorite portable speaker, and strapped it to his belt, then selected 'when you're evil' by voltaire, it started to play as the two saw him inching out of the shadows while the intro of violin music played. His scythe-like pickax across his shoulder.
"When the devil's abit too busy. And death's is a bit too much, they call me by name you see. For my special touch! To the gentlemen, i'm Miss Fortune, to the ladies, I'm Sir Prize. But call me by any name, any way it's all the saaame!" he sang as the room changed shape slightly.
The man faced Neo and shivered a bit, but still held his confident look. "So you're the kid my pal said you beat in one move, hehe, you don't look so tough to me."
The dog whimpered. Then neo continued. "I'm the fly in your soup, i'm the pebble in your shoe, i'm the demon in your bed, i'm the bump on every head, i'm peel on which you slip, i'm pin in every hip, i'm thorn in your side that makes you wiggle and writhe." he then spun causing a dark energy tornado. "And it's so easy when you're evil, this is the life you see, the devil tips his hat to me! I do it all because i'm evil!" he stopped, slamming his ax in the ground, causing it to crack. "And i do it all for free, your tears are all the pay i'll ever need!"
The dog was backing up by the boy while the man scoffed. "If you're done singing, toss out your vivosaurs and lets get this over little bug!" he demanded as he summoned a charchar predator vivosaur with a goyo.
Neo tossed out Zonga. "Zonga Zonga."
Upon summoned, the dark vivosaur towered above the two dinosaurs and snarled. "What do we have here? Two little bite sized snacks."
The hook nosed man's eyes widened in horror. "W-wh-what the hell is that thing?!"
"Your worst nightmare." neo grinned before snapping his fingers.
Zonga released a shilling roar before lunging and snagging charchar into his mouth before shaking it like dog with a chew toy. He then hurled the creatures aside, doing critical damage.
The man went pale as his best vivosaurs were defeated so easily to this gigantic dark vivosaur.
Zonga turned to him and the dog with a malicious grin, jaw dripping with saliva and his vivos red blood. "Your next."
"Uh, rex old buddy, we should probably skedaddle, yeah?" the man asked the dog.
"Bark bark!" The dog yipped as the two high tailed to the next level of the temple.
"Well that went we-" then the ground he previously shattered started to crumble beneath him. "Aw shiiit." The ground gave way as Neo started falling down a pit yelling as Darkness swallowed him whole.
