Patience, Gijinka Renamon. What do you think I saved for this
chapter?
Chapter 9 – More than expected…
Takato hangs up the phone. He then turns to face Michael, who aside from Jeri, Henry, and Takato, no one knows that he changed. Michael wasn't the full height or size of a Growlmon, but he still had a little trouble getting through doors…
"Ouch! I'm stuck."
Michael tries harder, and frees himself. He stumbles a little, and smacks his head into a chair.
"Ouch!"
Michael then stood up. He then walked over to Takato.
"Are you all right, Michael?"
"Yeah. Um… Are they coming?"
"Yeah."
Takato soon regretted saying that.
"WHEEEE!!!!!"
Whenever Michael or Guilmon were happy enough, they danced around a bit. This was one of those times. Normally, this didn't cause a problem, but with Michael's increased size…
"WHOA! MICHAEL!!"
"Huh?"
Then Michael remembered that his tail grew as well. He stopped his dance, and picked Takato up off the floor.
"Sorry."
"Are we there yet?" Alex asked for the umpteenth time.
"Yes."
Alex never expected to be there when he asked. He just wanted to annoy his father. The cars parked, and the Tamers and kids got out, and went into a nice little home outside of town. Inside, Guilmon and Takato greeted them.
"HI!" Guilmon said.
"Hey Guilmon!" Alex shouted.
The kids followed Guilmon to where Guilmon thought Michael would be.
"HEY WAIT!!!!!"
Too late…
Guilmon and kids were out of earshot by the time Takato shouted for them. Guilmon led the way outside to the backyard, where Michael was watching a cricket hop around.
"ECK!!!!"
"Guilmon buddy, w-w-w-w-why is Michael so… big?"
"WHOA!!!! I thought him going to school was bad, but this…"
They all noticed changes other then size. Alex remembered that Michael had two claw-like toes from when the two were cooling off in the little pond in the backyard. Now Michael had three, and there wasn't a claw on the back of his foot. Tony noticed the horny projections above his eyes, and Nicole noticed the black patterns on his skin. At first, she thought they were bruises, but then she saw a purple spot on his arm that actually looked like a bruise. This new Michael startled all the kids and Guilmon. Michael then sniffed the air a couple times, and turned around.
"Hi!"
That's when the parents arrived. Takato wasn't able to explain this to them yet, so it didn't go anywhere near well.
"Nicole, what's… OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!" Rika shouted.
"I thought Michael would grow up fast, but this is NOT what I had in mind…"
"When Takato told me over the phone, I never knew it was THIS serious."
Michael seemed to get where this was going, because his ears were pointing downward, which was one sign of him being sad.
"Awww… Does this mean we can't play?"
At dinner, Takato finally got a chance to explain. Jeri also was invited to stay for dinner, and had cooked the meal out of generosity.
"So you mean to tell me that Michael…digivolved?"
"I didn't say that. I just said that it could be compared to it."
Upstairs, meanwhile, the kids were trying to get used to Michael.
"Um… Does that… hurt?" Alex asked.
"Nah."
"This is something new in my book." Tony told them.
"Huh?"
Michael began to sniff around Nicole.
"What ARE you doing?????"
"You smell different."
"Perfume? Aren't you a little young for it?" Alex joked.
"She smells like… kind of like Nicole and Renamon at the same time. HEY! You too do as well, only with Terriermon and…Um… Cyberdramon."
"You smell them on us?"
"No, I smell them AS you…"
"Nice gag Michael." Alex told him.
"I'm not kidding…"
Before Alex could deny his credibility again, he felt sick, and ran to the bathroom. Michael went to get his dad.
"So that's where you've been all this time." Takato said.
"Yeah."
"Um… Alex's dad, sir?"
Henry turned to see Michael in the doorway.
"What's wrong?"
"Um… Alex might be sick…"
"What??????? Take me to him."
Henry followed Michael to the bathroom door. Henry knocked on the door.
"GO AWAY!!!!!!"
"Alex, what's wrong?"
"SOMETHING THAT AIN'T NORMAL!!!!"
Everyone knew this could only be bad.
"Uh-oh."
"Alex, if you're sick, I need to know what's wrong before I can help!"
"I'm not sick exactly…I think I'm hallucinating from a fever though…"
"ALEX!!!! PLEASE OPEN THE DOOR!!!"
"All right."
The door is unlocked, and Alex walks out. His ears are now much like Terriermon's, only proportionate to Alex's body. A small horn has formed on hi forehead, and short, greenish fur has sprouted a bit on his body. The looks Alex receives tell him that this isn't a fever-induced hallucination…
Well, this might as well be an episode of Twilight Zone.
