Warm… soft… fuzzy… forest…

Daniel woke up in a stupor laying on his stomach; still feeling the pain from his recent beatings, confused about what has been happening recently, and not remembering grabbing a large yellow fuzzy blanket last night. Instead of freaking out he simply laid there, content with staring at his dorm room's door on the other side of the room. The sunlight passed through the windows showing what he assumed his shadow, except it seemed lumpy than usual across his back, legs and butt. He wasn't really sure how much time had passed while he lay there; he would normally use whatever was on TV. as a clock and his cell phone as an alarm clock, but both his remote and cell phone were on his desk out of reach and he didn't want to get up yet. At some point he felt something furry moving across his lower torso, but noticed that the black blanket he was under was a woven one and also not moving. When he heard a feminine groan behind him he panicked and rolled out of the bed onto the floor, his foot caught on to his nearby coat rack knocking it and its contents onto him.

"Oouuuwwwwch…" he groaned.

"Good morning to you too Daniel." Renamon responded in a similar manner

"Well, this is the second time that I've come to, and you are still here so I guess it means I'm not dreaming, you are real, and for some reason you don't know about personal space."

"Well you're right on two accounts," said in a sing-song manner

"Oh goodie…"

"Technically, I'm still data; I'm not flesh and blood."

"Yay…so if you rape me I don't have to worry about STDs. All is right in the world…"

"Oh you don't be such a fuddy-duddy," she said now really perky.

"And now you're acting like my mom."

"That's mean, I'm not that fat," she said smirking.

"Take that back!" He was off the ground and pinning Renamon in less than a second.

"Hey you started it, don't play hard ball with a plastic bat." She not only managed to escape, but she also managed to put Daniel in a school boy pin.

"I said take that back!" he struggled trying to escape her hold.

"Why would I listen to a wimpy son of a bitch like you, hmmm?" she asked switching to a head lock.

"She… is… not!" Daniel said frantically trying to escape, but Renamon put an end to his lower body's movements with her tail and legs while her free arm caught hold of Daniels other two and lifted them above his head.

"You're right, she's a fat bitch."

"I'm gonna' kill you, you ungrateful heat stricken pussy!" His hand began to glow again.

So it's controlled by his emotions, I doubt that he's got any control over it, so I better test it to see how dangerous it is; after all it's his room anything he breaks comes out of his pocket. She smiled to herself. "Aww sweetie you don't mean that, now do you?" She stated more than asking. She released his neck, but then began molesting his torso and chest beneath his t-shirt.

"What the hell do you think you're doing!" The light his hand contained intensified 5-fold.

"Playing with my toy."

"A… toy… a fucking toy… … … No." He stopped thrashing about and became still.

"Uh oh, did I break my new toy already?"

"… "

"Hey you don't be that way, say something." Does he know?

"…"

"…" Renamon stopped caressing him, she also loosened her vice-grip enough so that he had more space, but it would still take herculean strength to escape. He just lay there though. "Say something!"

"I'm not going to let you manipulate me like this. Although it is a really low and dirty shot, and in the past I might have killed for insults like that, I'm not giving you that power over me."

"Well damn, I'm sorry kid, I was just trying to assess your power, and you got to go all noble and goody goody and take control of your emotion…

"There you go again assessing me, you know it's starting to get annoying. The state assessment tests are just as stupid as yours but at least they're predictable and you know they're coming. Would you at least tell me next time before you do this stuff again?"

"Hmmm, sounds like a reasonable request, from now on I will tell you before I assess you. Kay?"

"Or one better and we skip that all together and you ask me about the stuff before and there not be an assessment."

"Not gonna' happen."

"Why not?"

"Because…"

"Because why?"

"I'm in charge and if I want to assess you I will."

"Now wait a second, you said we were partners, partners make equal decisions."

"Well considering the line of business that we're in, I'm providing most of the knowledge, and power, and skills, and…"

"No you don't we work evenly."

"…"

"No comment"

"Even so, I'm a girl and I'd win any argument we'd get in so there," she stuck her tongue out at him as she crossed her arm and turned her back. "Plus if we ever fought, I'd own your ass."

"…"

"…"

"You know we're getting ready to prove that right?"

"Well, how else will I assess your fighting skills? You may have the first move but you may want to wait…" Daniel charges at her screaming; she easily sidesteps him to flip him over and toss him out the window feet first. "…until we go down stairs." She walked to the window she tossed him out. Well at least he landed on a bush, we could have been set behind by a few weeks…wait is he moving? Hey you okay kid?"

"Yeah, the bush broke my fall." He groaned back to her fidgeting in the bush. She was instantly downstairs at his side extending a hand to him. "hmm, déjà vu."

"Yeah, but I don't think this happened last time," as he took her hand, she gripped his yanked him up and tossed him at a tree across the street. In the air, he managed to turn around so his legs would impact first. How did he…? Maybe he's more prepared than I thought.

"Auuugggh. Owie owie ow ow ouch! My leg."

Or maybe not.

Two hours later…

Daniel lays on the ground facedown spread-eagled with holes and tears through his clothes; his hair was a complete mess with red fluids matted in. What used to be his shoes were now shreds, one of which was barely holding together. Renamon had not moved from her location the entire time except to toss Daniel around like a ragdoll and the gentle swaying of her fur in the wind. After he had not attacked in a few minutes Renamon turned her head to see him lying there motionless; she walked over to him and nudged him with her foot.

"Hmm, maybe I was a little too rough on him. Hey kid you okay?"

"…"

"Hey runt, stop playing around and get up."

"…"

"Daniel playing around with me please, this isn't funny!" She dropped down to her knees and began to adamantly shake his body.

"…"

"No…D…D…Dan..Daniel, p-p-please, say somethin'," at this point she gently turns his body around placing his head in her lap. His face remained a blank slate with half lidded eyes and jaw slightly agape. She lowered her ear to his chest to listen for a pulse; some of her fur brushed across his chin and he let out a subtle chuckle. She jolted up quickly in time to see his attempt at keeping a straight face.

5 seconds later…

"Hey calm down it was a joke…"

"Diamond Storm!"

10 Minutes later…

"Oh come on… it's not that serious!..."

"Run Maggot! Diamond Storm!"

2 Hours Later…

"Don't… you… ever… get… tired?..."

"Come here sweetie, I just want to punch you!"

2 am the next morning…

"I… give up." He falls down face down on the ground as Renamon lands right next to him preparing a power paw.

"Last words?"

"myme mrrar…"

"What was that?" She grabbed him by the back of his severally torn shirt.

"I said I'm sorry."

"Oh that's okay, I'm kinda' surprised you lasted this long; I didn't think you'd last longer than five minutes running from me."

"Thanks for your vote of confidence; but, could you let go of my shirt; it's hard enough to breathe as it is." She drops him face first back on the ground. "Mmmmphs."

"What was that?" He turned his head to rest on the side.

"I said thanks."

"No problem."

"I don't suppose that I could get you to take me back to my room."

"Two of your human idioms come to mind: 'When hell freezes over' and 'hell hath no fury like a woman scorn'"

"Oh I figured as much."

"Don't worry, I'm not completely heartless, I'll zip back to your house and get some blankets and a pillow and we'll lie down for a while before getting started again at sunrise."

"Okay just don't get… the good ones… damn that was fast."

"Yeah, I could have caught you at any point of our little game of cat-and-mouse, but I wanted to see how much stamina you have." She put a pillow under his head and set one on the side he wasn't looking; she then lay down behind drawing the blankets over the both of them.

"Hey Renamon, where are we? I don't recognize this area of the park." Before she answered she wrapped one of her legs and arms around him and pulled him close to her body.

She cooed in his ear, "we aren't in the park," she licked his ear, "we're in a forest on the outskirts of the city," she nipped his ear, "and I was not lying earlier." The last part she breathed into his ear with him uncomfortably squeezed against her and her tail rubbing up and down his belly under his shirt.

"Damn it, must… escape… but… too tired…"

"Ohh poor baby, don't worry, you'll like my bite."

Author's turn:

So this one will probably seem 'disjuct', that would be because it took me several days to write it. This chapter was meant to make a few details about Renamon painfully obvious, no pun intended. In case you missed them no she's not a serial rapist, but she has fewer inhibitions; she isn't malicious but no wait she is malicious but not evil; and either her emotion snap very quickly or she is a very good actor.

By now I'm sure that you noticed that the timeline in the story is not entirely linear, I try to keep events in order as much as possible, but in terms of time gaps I reserve the right to have time pass as I see fit. I do this one as a ploy to stop writing when I get tiered (I'll admit I'm lazy but I'm a musician not a writer) but also as a way to let them develop a relationship. While other writers are able to get a strong relationship developed within a couple of week's time I believe it takes a little longer than that.

Well I think I'm done with notes for now; Daniel, Renamon do either of you two have anything you want to say?

Renamon: Hey a little busy do you mind?

Daniel: Help me please…mph mmmph… mmm…"

And Renamon just gagged him with her tail. So I guess there's not much else, oh wait next chapter there's a new…
