I don't own digimon or precure.
Date 11
Freefallin'
Sleep came quite quickly for the two girls.
While there wasn't much in the way of dreams, they actually managed to make Airu's bed work. And by that, I mean Cho held Airu close to her
"Good morning, Cho." Airu greeted and tipped her head up, watching her girlfriend slowly open her eyes. "How did you sleep?"
"Pretty good." the baker answered as she pulled herself up. "Anything that you want to do today, Sugar?"
Airu let out a chuckle.
"Not really." the trapper explained and turned her attention to the closet, where Jesmon had repaired the wall. At the very least, it meant the two could change without fear of someone watching. Which was a pretty big win when you got down to it. "I guess we should get dressed then?"
Cho gave a nod as they made their way over. While the options hadn't changed at all, it was still a good idea for the trapper to show it to Cho. That way, she would get familiarized with it and wouldn't have to worry about not having anything to adorn. Why she would even have such a worry is beyond me. But you know, better safe than sorry.
Cho stared towards her options, eventually focusing in on a black pair of jeans with a purple t-shirt with a star decal. Airu on the other hand, just went for a sparkly pink top with a matching skirt. Which won't be hard on the eyes at all.
"What do you think?" she remarked and struck a pose, possibly imitating one of her many favorite precure characters.
"It looks nice, Sugar." Cho answered, deciding to copy her girlfriend. Unlike her sadly, she wasn't as successful. Not that I could really see much of a difference.
But this little show of poses was promptly interrupted by the arrival of Lilithmon. Who for some reason, decided that onesies were somehow in for adults. Not that I'm certain if they are or not. That sort of thing I was never that into.
"Good morning." Lilithmon remarked, deciding that she was going to do her nails while drinking coffee. Truly a maverick. "Mommy saved you two some desert. It was a dreamy chocolate cake. You would have loved it."
Good to know. Especially since I'll have to compare to all the other chocolate cakes I've ever eaten.
"Thank you." Airu remarked and focused on Lilithmon. "Anything else we need to know?"
The mega shook her head and skedaddled out of the room. Cho took this opportunity to look over to her girlfriend.
"Sugar, do you think we can another episode of Maho Girls?" she inquired, the trapper perking up. "Do you want to bring any of the cure dolls with us then?"
"I guess." Airu responded, picking up her dirty clothes and making her way over to her hamper. Cho was right behind, making sure that she didn't accidently dump her armor in there as well. That would suck. For both her and the armor itself. That out of the way, the duo grabbed their respective cure dolls - Cure Heart for Airu and Regina for Cho, "Ready to head on down?"
Cho nodded and the two finally made their way out of the room. While the house was still mostly quiet, some flickers of activity could still be seen. Hiroshi was at least up, but not quite dressed. Or was just trying to decide between two outfits. He'll probably be down in a couple minutes. Their parents on the other hand seemed to be late risers with an eye for an open door. Give them another hour, maybe two.
Thankfully, the walk down the steps passed without incident. Even if Cho really wanted to carry Airu down, bridal-style. At the bottom of the stairs, she set the trapper down. Carefully, of course.
A short walk to through the hall and into the living room follows. Like what was predicted, Lilithmon was the only one down here at the moment.
Cho gave a nod and joined Airu, who currently was getting her laptop set back up. Once that was all done, the third episode began.
Compared to the first two episodes, this one showed Mirai and Riko shopping for school supplies. Witch school supplies. This sounded cool on paper, but was far less different than buying regular school supplies. Of course, a spider girl thing shows up and attempts to ruin the peace. But after a hard fought battle and a fiery power-up, the two managed to save the town and get the Linkle Stone Ruby. Then, Mirai gets the rest of her school supplies from what is possibly a man attempting to pass themselves off as a woman. A very creepy one, at that.
"So just how many of these grunts are there?" Cho inquired as the end theme and it's associated credit sequence started up.
"Five or six, then three." Airu answered, getting a confused look from Cho in return.
"Did they lose half of their group or something?"
A head shake.
"No, three new people show up out of nowhere with a proper plan." Airu explained, Cho's look still unchanged. "I don't really get it either."
Cho gave a nod as they started the next episode up.
Back at magic school, the first actual magic lesson had finally begun. With them trying to find magical paper butterflies. And before you ask, the only other thing they teach is how to ride a broom. Yeah, some weird priorities they have in this realm. After a quick info dump with a remark made about hands holding, Mirai and Riko go about searching for the butterfly. Only for Mirai to get attacked by a turtle dressed like a roman centurion of all things. His whole big deal is that he's honorable and stuff and wants a true fight with our heroes. He drives Mirai into the library, with Riko on her tail. Thanks to the discovery of the Linkle Smartbook. Which sounds cool, but isn't really. You would think it would at least have some level of smartphone capabilities, but that's two seasons away. Thankfully, they beat their opponent and catch their butterfly, only for a tiny fairy baby to be born for them, which Toei would rather you not think about at all. Make of that what you will.
By that point, Jesmon and Airu's parents were making their way down with Hiroshi taking up the rear. I guess my guesses were sort of off. Oh well.
"Good morning." Jesmon greeted and waved what was possibly an invisible cowboy hat. Or maybe just an imaginary one. Who could really know with him.
"You too." Airu remarked and closed the laptop, her and Cho getting up in the process. "Anything that I can do for you guys?"
As the trapper said that, her mother perked up. She made her way over to the pantry. A quick look later, she turned her attention back to the pair.
"Yes, actually." Mrs Suzaki answered. "Could you two get some groceries for breakfast?"
Airu gave a nod, grabbing a bag off a nearby chair. Then she turned to Cho. While they had planned to mostly relax, the plan had changed. Now, the trapper wasn't quite sure how her girlfriend would react.
"Are you fine with that?" she inquired and got a bit nod in return from the baker. "Okay. Let's put away the cure dolls and grab our stuff."
They made their way upstairs, taking the stairs up two at a time. Once at the top, a mad dash back to their room followed. Where things were still the same as they had been as they had left them. So they put their dolls in a hugging position and turned their attention to the pile of Cho's armor.
"I have a question." Airu asked, giving the armor a poke.
"Shoot, Sugar."
"Is your armor decorative or does it serve a purpose?"
Cho made a glance towards the armor, following it up with a bit of a chuckle.
"A little bit of both, Sugar." the baker continued, holding up the helmet to Airu's head. "Hmm… I guess it could fit you. May I'll get you a set for your birthday or Christmas. Which one is closer for you, Sugar?"
Her remark caught Airu by surprise. So she closed her eyes and imagined what she would look like. Against her own better judgement, she would've gone for a purple, maybe violet color scheme. She probably have it be cat-themed though with a cat paw staff. Yeah. That would be nice.
"Sugar?"
Thankfully, her girlfriend was able to break her from her daydream and get her back to reality.
"Sorry about that." Airu answered, picking up her jacks and stuffing them into the secret skirt pocket. "So, armor or regular clothes?"
Cho shot the armor a quick glance, shrugging right after. While the protection would be nice, it was bulky and a pain in the butt to move in unless you were going fast.
"I'll be fine without it, Sugar." she answered, grabbing her rake. Then it was back down the stairs. There, Airu made sure to grab her other bag along with some snacks. Then it was just a matter of making their way outside and over to the shed. While Candlemon was warming up to his new roommate, it was still a learning process.
"Can I have some wax please?" Airu announced as she knocked on the door.
"I guess." Candlemon muttered, getting a good look at the trapper as she entered. Carefully, he handed over a jar and watched Parasimon spill out. "Best of luck out there."
Cho gave a nod, her attention to her girlfriend. Airu was currently in the process of getting onto her mount, making sure she was in snug. Then it was her turn to get on. She jumped and carefully positioned herself to hold on.
"Ready to go?" Airu remarked, getting a nod from Cho and a bark from Parasimon. "Forward."
Parasimon complied, heading forward without much thought. This time, the transition from grass to pavement went far smoother. If anything, the spider seemed even more intent on adapting to this strange new environment he was forced to call home.
"Arf!" he announced, his eye stalk focusing up towards the sky. Just barely visible was a girl on what looked to be a purple wyvern. I wonder… Yeah, it's probably them. No doubt about it.
"Okay…" Airu remarked and gave Parasimon a slight tap. The spider changed direction, deciding that meant a turn to the left. "I'm guessing they're some big shot hunter here to compete with us for some reason?"
Offscreen, the narrator tried to hold back their laughter. They failed miserably. Not that she was really trying in that regard.
"I doubt it, Sugar." Cho answered back and made one more glance towards the sky. "I've heard a couple of rumors. Some girl with weird shape-shifting powers managed to talk down a literal demon, earning it's trust and eventually, it's heart. Then they got married or something."
Airu's gaze shifted slightly, making sense of her girlfriend's words as best she could. It seemed so far-fetched. At the same time, so very possible. So she took a deep breath, her focusing return to Cho.
"Where did you find out about all this?" she inquired, catching Cho by surprise. Well, kinda I guess. It was entirely possibly she hadn't put much thought into the rumor until now. Or she was just surprised by her girlfriend being so interested in something like this. Either answer is completely valid here.
"Some girls in school claimed to have heard it from some of their friends." Cho explained, getting a nod from Airu. "Though, the last part is just speculation more than anything."
Airu let her attention focus back on the street ahead. The stores were quickly coming into view, with their next obstacle coming quite quickly.
"Do you have some rope on you?" Cho inquired and watched her girlfriend dig into her bag. "I'll take that as a no then, Sugar?"
The two began gazing about the nearby area, searching for anywhere or possibly anything that could hide such a large spider. Before they had a chance to really check any potential area out, a small bomb was flung their way.
"Crap."
Airu gave Parasimon a slightly harder kick, which made him speed up for some reason.
"Cho, how well do you know this area?" the trapper remarked, making a quick glance towards her partner.
"Kind of?" Cho answered, looking around as best she could. While she had just gotten to this world, she hadn't really gotten to be a tourist. "I'm guessing you want me to run around to try and get whoever throwing explosives at us off our tails?"
Airu gave a nod, sighing. She wasn't sure who she had pissed off, let alone what sort of beef they may have with her. Right now, she just needed to evade them.
"Got it."
But just as Cho was about to dismount, her gaze focused back on the trapper.
"Wait. Where do we want to meet back up?"
"Hm…" Airu mumbled, batting another bomb away with her hand. She made a quick glance towards the surrounding area, only to focus in on a skyscraper. "Meet me at the base of there."
Cho gave a nod and attempted to dismount. But just as she did, screaming filled the air.
"Get out of the way!"
Parasimon stepped to the side, just in time for what appeared to be a boy to slam into the asphalt. For this special occasion, this person had gone with brown hoodie and yellow pants. Sadly, this did little in the way of pushing attention away from himself, especially when compared to his brown eyes and dark blue hair.
A white humanoid followed right along and landed sort of gracefully on the sidewalk. Unlike his human, he had gone with a pair of long grey jeans held up with a pair of belts. His top on the other hand, was just a bunch of hose wrapped in such a way to look like an 'X' for some reason. A pair of wood bracers covered his hands, with a pair of matching practice swords in hand. Finishing off this unique look, was a pair of yellow eyes set within a mask-like head and long locks of reddish orange hair.
"Hi?" Airu remarked and watched the boy pull himself out. After, he pulled an explosive out and pointed it towards the trapper.
"Airu Suzaki, any last words?"
.
.From atop a nearby building, a purple wyvern casually lands. Once on the ground, a woman dismounts and turns her attention to the beast. It's body shifted, taking on the form of a woman with pink hair. A dark blue sundress straddles her body, contrasting greatly with the red dress on her rider's body.
"What do you think?" the woman remarked as her companion joined her. They had gotten quite used too jumping between worlds, hoping to god this would would be the final stop. This was no different.
"It's nice." the other woman answered, letting her arms wrapped around the first. "While I was hoping for something tropical, it's a perfect place to properly start our honeymoon."
They both let out a low chuckle, taking a cautious step forward to the edge. Before either girl had a real chance to observe the situation below any better, the first woman's phone rang.
"Yes?" she remarked. "Oh hi, Suiko! It's been a while. How are you holding up?"
Notes:
Been a while. Good to see they're still around.
