My RenaKato story
Chapter 11
As the three of them arrived at Renamon's village, they all saw Viximon stare at the village in awe and horror. Takato walked up behind her, kneeled down and picked her up,
"Ok, c'mon guys, we gotta' search around, there still might be some Digimon in need of help" he said looking toward Renamon and LadyDevimon. The both nodded and followed behind Takato who was scanning every torn down house, cracks and ever hole that he could find with his eyes.
Eventually, he heard a snap, like a twig, but much louder, he turned around and looked all around him, he saw nothing different, but he felt more on edge than he did before, much more on edge.
They continued their search for Digimon in need of help, and as they did, they heard more and more of the snapping wood. As the got closer they began to hear voices.
"Where are the rest of the villagers? Tell me and I'll let you go with a little treat" a very feminine voice sounded.
"I shall never betray my villagers, or my village leader, so screw you" a male voice said.
"Humph, you go a lot of courage for your level, champion armour Digimon, humph, I've defeated hundreds of you, I could wipe you out right now, but I'm feeling generous today, so I'll go very easy on you" the feminine voice replied, "HIYA!" the female voice yelled.
There was a loud thump and a small cry of pain from the male voice.
Takato had slowly crept up to where the sound was coming from and saw three Digimon, two LadyDevimon and a Flamedramon, the Flamedramon had bruises, scratches and cuts all over, and the tow LadyDevimon had not a single scratch on them. He then put Viximon down and called Renamon and LadyDevimon over very quietly.
When the both arrived he showed them the three Digimon, LadyDevimon had a horror struck face.
"What's wrong LadyDevimon?" Takato asked looking a her.
"Those…those two are…they're my adopted sisters" she replied.
"How can you tell?" he asked confused
"The patches on their shoulders, it's the same as mine" she replied gripping her shoulder.
Takato then looked at them, the patches were indeed the exactly same,
"I'm guessing you want to spare them then?" Takato asked.
"No, you can turn them into data, thy may be my adopted sisters, but they were always so cruel to me, more cruel than the others, the others knew when enough was enough, but they, thy never stopped" she said in a sad tone.
"Ok then, we'll sneak up on them and take them out" Takato said to his two Digimon.
"Oh was that your plan then? Thanks for letting us know" said a feminine voice from behind him.
He then looked at Renamon and LadyDevimon,
"They're standing behind me aren't they?" he asked them.
They both nodded looking at them, "Ok then, well I'll just get up and be on my way" he said picking up viximon and began to walk away, he didn't get to far though as one of them blocked his path,
"Now where do you think you're going?" one of the LadyDevimons asked.
Takato froze up,
"Oh, just over there" he said pointing directly in front of him.
"And why is that?" the other one asked
"Well I heard this village was attacked and I came to help and right now I'm looking for survivors, or trying to" he replied.
"Trying to? Aw, no luck as of yet?" they teased him
"Nope, not one sole survivor, except him" he said as he turned around and pointed to the Flamedramon.
"Yes, that would seem so, so why did you think you could take us out? You're just a tiny human, your strength is nothing compared to ours" they said in unison.
"Oh really? I beg to differ" he said and whistled loudly, dropped Viximon, "go hide somewhere, when the battles over come find us" he said and she started to run off. And he stood up, he then looked at them with a serious face, and Renamon and his LadyDevimon walked out from behind rubble, "hey, there you are, been wondering where you two disappeared to" he said without even turning around, "now lets see who's strength is no match for who" he added on, activating the digi-blade on his glove.
After a few minutes, the two LadyDevimon were tied up and the flamedramon released.
"Thank you my friends, if you hadn't come along, I'd surely be data by now" the Flamedramon said to them,
"Its fine, really, after all, we're here for really the same reason that you are" Takato replied.
"Really?…if that's so then you must either know someone from this village or you've been here before, and I don't remember you ever being here, I would've remembered, I'm the guardian after all" Flamedramon replied
"Well, I may not have been here before but my one of my Digimon used to live here, c'mon out Renamon" Takato said looking behind him.
Renamon then appeared beside him and looked at the flamedramon,
"It's nice to see you again, dragon breath" Renamon giggled.
"Humph, shoulda known it would've been you pixie dust" the Flamedramon replied.
"Um, I know there's a back story, but nick-names, you were close, as in really close" Takato's LadyDevimon said.
"Oh yeah, pixie dust and I go way back, I mean about eighteen years back, we used to be a close as two peas in a pod" Flamedramon said, reaching for Renamons hand, he lightly grasped it, but Renamon pulled away once she felt his hand and walked over to Takato.
"That may have been us once Flamedramon, but that is no more, I'm with my tamer now" she said looking at Flamedramon.
"Wait what?" Takato said confused.
"You don't get it? Fine I'll spell it out for you. Renamon and Flamedramon used to be an item" LadyDevimon said holding up her hands and flexing her pinkies.
"Really?" he asked
"Well, how do you explain the nick-names?" she replied,
"Fair point, is this true Renamon?" he said turning towards her.
She blushed profusely,
"Its true, but that was before I came to the human world, and actually before you were born, we were both very young, I was still a viximon and he was a Demi-Vmon, we were always close friends, and when I turned into the Renamon you see before you he turned into Vmon, and soon found the digiegg of courage and armour digivolved to the Flamedramon you see here." she replied.
Flamedramon looked at him and to Renamon, and kept going back and forth between the two,
"Wait at minute? I thought your tamer was a girl?" Flamedramon exclaimed,
"My tamer was a girl, but I swapped out for this one, who actually treats me like I want to be treated, and whenever I'm with him and sitting in his house, I feel like I'm at home, I feel like I belong there, and people want me there, and ever since I first met Takato, I could never stop wondering what his true capabilities were" Renamon said looking at Takato, "but now, now I know that he is going to be the strongest tamer ever" she added on.
Flamedramon looked at Takato slyly, he then walked over to him,
"Well it seems that you've captured her heart better than I did" he said,
"Wait, if I'm correct it was you who fell for me Flamedramon, I'm sure of that" Renamon cut in, giggling,
He sighed "Yes, I fell for you, but that's besides the point, what I want to say is, I CHALLENGE YOU FOR THE MAIDENS HEART!" he exclaimed.
"Wait, WHAT!" Takato, Renamon and LadyDevimon shouted confused.
"Yup, I just challenged him for your heart soon to be my Renamon again" Flamedramon said smiling slyly. They all sighed and laughed, "What? I'm serious, I'm not letting you leave until the fight is over, village tribal rules, remember Renamon" he said. Takato looked at Renamon and she nodded back at him,
"Ok then, so is there somewhere safer we can do this, and also shouldn't we be looking for the villagers?" Takato asked.
"Yes I suppose so, and we would need high lady Sakuyamon to watch over the fight anyways, and she went into the shelter with everyone to protect them, lets go, this way" Flamedramon said leading the way to the shelter as the others followed behind.
Once they arrived Flamedramon knocked on the door, a small slat opened up, a pair of eyes peered out and saw him, the small slat closed over and multiple turning noises and locks clinked and clanked. Once the door was open, a single Digimon came out, it was a Taomon. It looked at Flamedramon and looked around, it then laid its eyes on Renamon and Viximon. It then started to walk closer, once it got close enough they realised who it was,
"FATHER!" the both jumped for him and hugged him,
"Oh my little girls, I'm so glad you're safe" he said holding them close.
While holding them he looked around and saw LadyDevimon sitting down on the ground bowing,
"Renamon, may I ask why is there a LadyDevimon bowing?" Taomon said
"Oh her, yeah, well she's one of our friends" Renamon replied.
"Hmm, I've never seen or heard of a LadyDevimon being nice" Taomon said calmly.
"Well, I'm not normally seen, I usually stick to hiding, because…well…I cant fight" she replied.
Just as she said that, Taomon brought out a few talismans, and readied to throw them. He flung one Takato saw this and stood in the way of its path, he was then struck by and shocked by the talisman.
"AGRHHHHHH!" he cried, cringing in pain,
"ARE YOU A FOOL BOY! GET OUT OF THE WAY!" Taomon yelled at him.
"N-no, I'm not a fool, I'm doing what a tamer has to do to protect one of his Digimon" he replied gritting his teeth. The talisman then stopped shocking him and glowed dimly, the small burns all over him began to heal at an alarming rate. Once all the burns were gone, the talisman disappeared.
"Because that's my duty as a tamer, to protect my Digimon, the people that have protected me for over a year, until my original got deleted, months passed by, I was in deep depression, only three people helped me in that time, two of which were one of my tamer friends and his Digimon, the third…the third was Renamon, she was the one that visited most frequent and I'm glad for that, cause if she didn't then I wouldn't have developed feelings for her and I wouldn't be here right now, and I wouldn't be with her, and lets face it, you wouldn't be alive, we took out the two LadyDevimon that were interrogating Flamedramon here, if we didn't arrive he would be either deleted, or he would've cracked" Takato continued after he caught his breath
Taomon readied another talisman,
"Get out of the way now boy, I need to delete that scum" he said,
"NO! I AM NOT MOVING FROM THIS SPOT!" Takato yelled
"Then so be it" Taomon replied calmly, he threw the talisman.
Takato readied his shield but the talisman curved around him, and headed towards him, not LadyDevimon, LadyDevimon saw this and at the last second pushed him out of the way, the talisman connected with her and she began to get shocked. Takato was now petrified and frozen in the spot.
Renamon then ran to her father and punched him in the face,
"TAKTO! Matrix digivolution, NOW!" Renamon yelled
Takato snapped out of his stupor got a random card from his deck, it turned into the blue card that any card normally does when a strong desire is needed, he then slid the card through the small slat on his W-D-ARK. Renamon was then enveloped in a blue egg shaped like light. It disappeared and dimmed once it did Renamon was now a Taomon. She went over to LadyDevimon, chanted a few words and removed the talisman.
Taomon looked disappointed,
"Hmm, even my own daughter betrays me" he said,
"No father, it is you who betrayed your people" Renamon replied shifting from Taomon to Renamon, "you were the one that always said do not attack those who don't attack you, and now you betray your own words" she added on.
Just then a Sakuyamon stepped out of the bunker and stood between the two.
"Stop it you two, I admit you are right daughter and Taomon, you have not followed your own teachings, and you have attacked an innocent LadyDevimon who has done nothing to harm us, the others yes they have, but this one in particular has a pure heart, this one knows emotions other than rage, lies, betrayal and hate, this one know compassion, love, kindness, laughter, generosity and loyalty" the Sakuyamon said looking towards LadyDevimon, she walked over to her, knelt down and held her hands over her body. Her hands glowed a dim white and LadyDevimon's wounds began to heal, Taomon then devolved back into Renamon.
"I'm terribly sorry for any inconvenience that my husband had caused, please accept my apology on his behalf" she said bowing slightly,
"O-of course, thank you for healing me, and well, thank you for saving me Renamon" LadyDevimon replied.
"Well what are friends for?" Renamon replied smiling slightly,
Taomon stood still with panic in his eyes, realising that Sakuyamon was right.
"Yeah, you're right, friends are always there for you, and if he's your husband then you're Renamon's mother?" LadyDevimon said.
"Yes, that would be correct, and how's the human world been treating you Renamon?" Sakuyamon said standing up, facing towards Renamon.
"Well it's not too bad, after all, I have my tamer here with me and he's very sweet" She replied.
"I can see that, he's very brave to stand against your father" Sakuyamon said looking at him,
"Believe me mother, you don't know the half of what he's been through and what he's had to face" Renamon said remembering everything that he had gone through.
"Then you wouldn't mind telling me over tea then?" Sakuyamon asked,
"I'd be delighted to, and it seems father has certainly calmed down now" Renamon replied.
"Well lets all get to work, we have to reconstruct the houses and that'll take a little while, so c'mon everyone we got a village to rebuild!" Sakuyamon announced, everyone that was in the shelter came out no longer afraid but glad that the LadyDevimon were gone,
"Thank the sovrens that no one was deleted or assimilated into data" Sakuyamon said to herself.
"MAMA!" Viximon squealed jumping onto Sakuyamon,
"Oh you made it Viximon, I'm so glad you're alright, well done in bringing your sister back, and it seems you brought along a strong ally as well" Sakuyamon said holding Viximon and petting her softly.
"Then, I did a good job?" Viximon said excitedly her tail waging rapidly
"Yes, you did a very good job, so much that you deserve a treat, how about a two cookies? And they're chocolate chipped" Sakuyamon said. Viximon's face lit up with joy.
Sakuyamon then reached behind her and pulled out two chocolate chip cookies and gave them to Viximon. Viximon then jumped out of Sakuyamon's arms and ran over to Takato, Renamon and LadyDevimon split each cookie in half and gave them a piece.
"Thanks Viximon" they all said and they all ate their halves of the cookies.
After about three hours all the houses in the village were fixed and rebuilt.
Takato was sitting against a wall, tired and sweating, Renamon came over to him with a glass of water with a few ice cubes in it, he chugged it down and began chewing on the ice, it cooled him down but didn't slow down his heavy breathing, it was like he just ran a marathon, a twelve mile marathon.
He took a few deep breaths and his breathing began to slow and stabilise. He looked around and saw that all the houses looked as good as new, he was happy to help the village in this time of need.
"Well, you certainly need more than a ten minute break Takato" Renamon said sitting down next to him and giggling lightly. Takato was still panting lightly, but his breathing was much less heavy that it was,
"Yeah, you're right about that, how about fifteen minutes?" Takato replied chuckling softly.
"Well, how about we rest over a cup of tea? After all, we still have to tell mother what you've been through, I did sort of promise her that" she said standing up in reply, Takato nodded and tried to stand up but stumbled and fell back down in the process.
"Um, little help?" Takato said laughing at himself, holding his hand out, Renamon grabbed his hand and pulled him up quickly, accidentally cracking some of his joints in his arm while doing so, and also bringing him into a light hug.
"Ok, that kinda hurt" Takato said rolling his shoulder,
"Sorry, I shouldn't have pulled you up that fast" Renamon said holding him a little tighter,
"No worries, there's no serious harm done, so it alright" he replied smiling up at her.
Renamon released him from her hold and nodded,
"Well, lets go and see my mother then" Renamon said and began to walk to the centre of the small village, Takato following closely behind. Once they arrived they saw Sakuyamon giving orders to different digimon, telling them where to put the rubble, broken doors, etc.
They walked over to her and tried to get her attention by coughing a few times, Takato then got fed up with having to wait,
"Um, excuse me? Sakuyamon?" he said in a polite manner, she then turned and saw the two of them,
"Oh, yes, I still have to talk with you two don't I, well Renamon, be a dear and show him to the house, I'll be there as soon as I'm done giving out orders to the other digimon" she replied in her own kind manner. Renamon nodded to her and began walking again, Takato following only a single step behind her, after a few moments they arrived at a very large hut with a decorative door, Renamon opened it and stepped inside, Takato walked in after her.
As he got in he looked around the room that he was in, he gave a slow whistle as he was very impressed, it wasn't anything fancy, but it looked good, there was multiple dream catchers hanging around but in the centre of them were different coloured gem stones that made them shine and stand out from the dull walls.
"Quite a place you have here" he said looking around,
"Yes, mother always was one for making these, and I see that she's got even better at it that when I was last here years ago" Renamon said admiring her mothers craftsmanship,
"Well thank you Renamon, I'm glad you think so, I've been working extra hard on these ones, it was especially hard to find and cut the gemstones down to size, so I appreciate the compliments" Sakuyamon said from behind Takato making him jump.
"Sorry for frightening you, so, how about that tea?" Sakuyamon said walking past Takato, and into a different room. Renamon and Takato sat together on one side of something that resembled a coffee table.
Five minutes later Sakuyamon came into the room they were in with a tray, and three cups of tea on it, she then placed the tray on the table and sat opposite them.
"So, I believe you have a very large story to tell Renamon" Sakuyamon said taking a small sip of her tea, Renamon nodded and picked up her own cup and took a sip.
"Well, I guess I'll start from the beginning…" Renamon said taking another sip and began telling her mother about all the adventures that they had all been through.
