didn't get the chance to dump his body...
Black: ...Yet.
Regless: Man you got issues.
Black: ... And into the closet you go. **Grabs Regless and shoves him in
the closet**
Regless: C'mon lemme out. I'm tired, I've been working all day.
Black: No you haven't. You just scream randomly, at the people at Wall-
Mart.
Regless: I said I work, I never said it was a job.
Black: Anyway, do you have any idea what your going to do for this chapter.
Regless: I thought up of something for Guilmon. I think I figured out a
way to give him levels. I just need to figure out which levels I'm going to
give him.
Black: Whatever, have fun typing in there.
Regless: I will. And can you get me a real muse before I finish?
Black: Sure. I wonder what Veemon is doing.

Perfect Hazard - Chapter 5 - Rejuvenate
***
Jeri walked through the trees with Calumon in her arms. Suzie was mimicking her with Lopmon. Henry was a few meters behind them with Terriermon on his head, making sure Guilmon was alright. The large red dinosaur/dragon hadn't said anything even with Calumon's arrival. He seemed so tired it was depressing. Calumon had asked Guilmon how he was doing before, but when he got no answer he simply gave up and went to Jeri, where he was now. Suzie looked a little jealous but Jeri just reminded her she had Lopmon and it passed quickly.
Jeri "Hey Calumon, What do you think of Henry?" Calumon "He's really nice. He helped me when Rika wanted to delete me and load my data!" Jeri "Huh? That's odd, I didn't realize you two had met before." Calumon "Well I kinda ran off. I thought he wanted to load my data too soo........" Jeri Giggled a bit "Well anyway, I'm glad he was there to save you." Calumon "Uh, hey Jeri. Why are you asking me about Henry?"
{Jeri Blushes and tries to change the topic}
Jeri "Um, er, Oh yeah Guilmon! How do you know him?" Calumon "Him and his friend were in my dreams. They're both really nice if you get to know them." Jeri "In your dreams? Couldn't it just be coincidence? I mean have you ever met him before this?" Calumon "Well, No......... But I'm sure it's real! You were in my dreams too Jeri. Takatomon and Guilmon did their best to protect all of you......... Well protect you and run away from Rika." Jeri giggled again hearing that comment about Rika "Takatomon? Hmmm, Takatomon and Guilmon......... I bet they make almost as good a team as Henry and Terriermon."
Jeri Looked back the three boys. She basically assumed Guilmon was a guy since it would be really weird and creepy if something like that was a girl. Her eyes rested on Henry. She blushed again when she realized she was staring and turned back looking ahead in time to dodge a low branch. Henry and Suzie didn't seem notice her almost face plant herself into the ground.
Terriermon "Alright Henry, don't tell me you didn't see that" Henry "See what? Sorry I was looking at Guilmon. He seems really tired." Terriermon "Guilmon's Always tired. You missed Jeri staring at you." Henry "Really? Maybe she likes me?" {Terriermon slapped his forehead} "Ya think? Go up and talk to her." Henry "No, I think I should keep an eye on Guilmon." Terriermon "Guilmon's fine. You need to take some initiative." Henry "But, I wouldn't know what to say anyway." Terriermon "Just give her compliments. Even if you can't think of something smart to say there nothing wrong with a compliment or two." Henry "......... Alright! Thanks Terriermon I'd be lost without you." Terriermon "Recognition at last." {Terriermon stands up and does a bow on Henry's head almost falling over}
Henry began to walk faster so that he could catch up with Jeri. She had begun laughing at something Calumon said. Suzie seemed to think it was pretty funny too. He even heard Lopmon let out a chuckle.
Calumon "Yeah! And one time Guilmon digivolved so big he couldn't fit in his shed. Takatomon was trying to shove him in there for hours. They even tried painting him to keep him out of sight but it ran off in the rain." {Jeri was laughing so hard she was gasping for breathe} Jeri "Ha ha ha. What was he doing last night?" Calumon: Last night? I don't know. I haven't had any dreams about him in the last two days." {Henry had finally caught up to them} Henry "Uh, hi Jeri. Ummm, What were you laughing about?" Jeri "Oh hi. We were talking about Guilmon and his friend, Takatomon" Henry "Takatomon? What kinda of digimon is that?"
Calumon was about to say something in response to that but Terriermon cut him off. He was looking backwards with an questionable look on his face.
Terriermon "Uh guys, speaking of Guilmon, where is he?"
Everyone looked back only to realize Guilmon was no longer following them. They ran back and noticed some broken brush off to the side. They figured he must have strayed off the path for some reason and raced after him. However after a few minutes of running top speed and finding nothing made it obvious Guilmon wasn't dragging on slowly anymore.
***Meanwhile***
Rika, Renamon, Kazu, Kenta, and Gardromon were walking through the woods. They were heading towards the Sovereign's Tower. Kazu had no idea Calumon had escaped so they still thought they needed to rescue him, while Rika was looking for another shot at the Sovereign's Data. Takato was in front of the pack and he wasn't exactly looking forward to his destination. Things were about to go from bad to worse when they a rustling in the trees. Of course, Kazu was the first one over there eager to find out what had made the sound. Gardromon was holding his arm out ready to attack from behind Kazu. Kazu moved behind some trees but found nothing. Takato was next to him but he wasn't able to see anything either. Kazu turned back and shrugged to his comrades. Gardromon eased up a bit while Renamon did the opposite.
Rika: "Renamon? What is it?" Renamon "Were surrounded!" Kenta began looking around nervously "Surrounded?"
Everyone looked around but didn't see anything. The only sound was that of their own breathing.
Takato "I don't see it. There's nothing here but trees... Hmm this sounds kinda familiar. Wait, didn't I see this in a digimon episode. Yeah there were a bunch and Woodmon chasing an Ogremon and they... KAZU!!! JUMP!!!"
Kazu bolted forward. He didn't know why but he suddenly got the urge to move......... fast. One of the trees he was standing next to had lashed at him and would've taken his head off if he didn't move just at that moment. Suddenly nearly all trees began to move and twist around and turn into Woodmon. The group suddenly realized they were in a very dire situation. Without Calumon, they had only a rookie and a champion to defend themselves. Takato was thinking rapidly of what he could do in this situation, sadly, he didn't see how he could do anything.
Kazu "I'm not going to go down easy!!!"
***DIGIMODIFY*** Power Activate
Rika "Renamon. Take them down!"
***DIGIMODIFY*** Speed Activate
Takato looked down at his D-Arc. He knew he wouldn't be able to do anything without Guilmon. The thought of his bread-inhaling friend was already beginning to sadden him. The red Digital Hazard sign almost taunted him. He looked up briefly and saw Gardromon get knocked back by an attack. Clenching his fist and glaring at his D-Arc he suddenly went from sad to angry. The Hazard signs on his hand began to glow accordingly.
Takato "Come on you stupid piece of junk!!! Do something!"
Takato levels were displayed the Hazard Level highlighted itself. Takato did his best to calm himself knowing full well what would happen if that level reached maximum, but he couldn't just sit back and do nothing. He looked and saw Renamon take an attack directly in chest. Rika seemed slightly concerned but she still just stood there. Takato ran up to her and passed his hand through her. The effect was instantaneous as she ran up in front of Renamon to defend her. She picked up a branch on the ground and clubbed a Woodmon who had obviously underestimated her because she was a human. It shrugged off the attack and returned one of it's own
Woodmon "WOODY SMASHER"
The attack sent Rika to the ground. Renamon looked at Rika then back at the Woodmon confused, Should she help her Tamer or continue the fight? Takato passed his hand through her and the choice became clear. She moved Rika out of the way just in time to dodge another "Woody Smasher" Gardromon wasn't fairing much better. After another few seconds the children and their digimon were cornered. Rika had finally gotten a card that could help them but it was too late to use it. One of the Woodmon spoke while getting ready to finish his opponents off.
Woodmon "This is what you get for allying yourselves with humans..."
Another voice full of malice and without mercy got the Woodmon's attention
??? "NO ONE HURTS TAKATOMON!!! "PYRO SPHERE!!!"
A fireball broke though the brush and collided with a Woodmon deleting him instantly. A large Red dinosaur followed behind and rammed into the next target with his head sending him flying. With the rest of the Woodmon turned towards the new arrival, Rika swiped two cards. As soon as Takato recognized his old friend he swiped a card.
Takato: ***DIGIMODIFY*** Power Activate
Takato stared at his digivice. It had a Hazard sign flashing on it and the words [Invalid Action].
Takato "What? No! Damn I guess I can't swipe cards while I'm like this. Guilmon, please be alright."
Rika: ***DIGIMODIFY*** Recharge Activate
Renamon felt her strength Returning to her
***DIGIMODIFY*** Change Tactics: Meramon
Renamon took no time in breaking in her new attacks.
Renamon "Fireball"
Gardromon, Renamon, and Guilmon now had their opponents outflanked and outmatched with long-range attacks that were strong against the, relatively slow, Woodmon. Guess who won. After all the smoke had cleared from the fight, Renamon and Gardromon were loading data. Guilmon sat and watched them under a cherry tree. Rika was looking at Renamon impressed with her performance.
Rika **Not only did she stand up to so many Woodmon, but she was able to watch out for me too. I never thought she would do that......... I wonder if I should scold her for ignoring the fight or thank her for saving me......... I'll have to figure it out later, Right now it's enough that she won**
Renamon **Rika clubbed a Woodmon in order to help me, it's not that surprising. She's always so stubborn. I just hope she's not angry at me for running away from the fight. I had to in order to help her. I never thought she would do that for me, It's only fair that I repay her the same way. I just hope she sees it that way**
Guilmon **Renamon looks shiny when she loads data. I'm hungry. Is Gardromon fat or just big boned? I'll ask Takatomon later**
Takato had dived through Guilmon when he saw him. It calmed Guilmon down but didn't really do much else. Takato was now sitting next to Guilmon aggravated that he could so close and so far from his Dino/Dragon-like friend. Guilmon turned his head and for a moment Takato thought Guilmon could actually see him. But Guilmon turned back when he noticed Kazu addressing him.
Kazu asked Gardromon to stop loading data and proceeded towards Guilmon leaving the confused Gardromon behind him.
Kazu "Hey, whoever you are! Thanks for the help. You can load some of the data if you want" Guilmon "Me Guilmon. I don't like loading data" {After hearing this Renamon stopped as well and walked over. Soon she was joined be the rest of the group} Renamon "Why? It is the natural way of things. You fight, you win, you take what you've earned" Guilmon "Fighting is bad. I don't like fighting and loading data." Takato "Way to go Guilmon! I'm glad I can count on you to be yourself......... Glad someone finally remembers me too" Rika "Fighting's bad? You told you that?" Guilmon "Takatomon." Takato "I'm not a mon" Kenta "Takatomon? What kinda of a digimon is that?" Takato "I'M NOT A MON!!!" Guilmon "Takatomon's not a........." {Guilmon's eyes narrowed into slits and he began growling lightly at full alert} "There's another digimon, a big one" ??? mafia gangster-like voice "How perceptive of you! PIT PELTER!!!"
Cherry's rained down from the tree the group was standing/sitting under. It was a close range surprise attack from an Ultimate Level Digimon, Cherrymon. The group had taken the blunt of the attack and were now hurting badly.. The only one untouched was, of course, Takato. He looked around trying to find something to help but he entire group was unconscious including Guilmon. Suddenly he caught something out of the corner of his eye. It was Henry and Jeri and Suzie and everyone else including Calumon. He had found hope but it became more grim as he realized they were just standing there. Takato ran up to them and started screaming as if they could hear.
Takato "WHAT ARE YOU DOING, THEY NEED YOUR HELP" Henry "..." Terriermon "C'mon Henry I can take him"
Terriermon had reminded Takato why Henry was unwilling to fight and the Goggled-Headed ghost quickly passed his hand through Henry. Terriermon had been expecting another "NO" for an answer but was quite surprised, and excited, at what he got instead.
Henry "Alright Terriermon. Get Ready!" Lopmon "Me too" Suzie "No Lopmon, you stay back"
Jeri and Calumon looked at Henry in shock. This was not at all what Henry was usually like. He didn't even seem worried anymore. He was thinking ahead to his next move. Just like the Henry Takato had known and relied on for so long.
Henry "Calumon, I may need you help in getting Terriermon to the champion form. Terriermon, do you think you can control yourself this time?" Terriermon "Of course Henry. Momentai" Takato "Gee Henry, I wish I could let you know about wishing for the blue cards. {Calumon looked directly at Takato for a moment then back at Henry}
***
Guilmon had gotten back to his feet and was ready to resume the fight. He couldn't see his tamer but he could feel his strength coursing through him. And as such, he would not lie down until he either won, or was deleted.
Guilmon "PYRO SPHERE"
The attack did nothing to Cherrymon who remained grinning widely. This however, quickly changed when Cherrymon realized his forest was rapidly catching fire.
Gargomon "Illusion Mist!"
Cherrymon was surprised again as he quickly recognized his own attack being used against him. Guilmon was approached by Henry and the rest of their group from behind. Henry had a tactics change card in his hand. It was a Cherrymon. Henry's group quickly gathered everyone before retreating. Cherrymon had enough to deal with as he tried not to catch on fire. Everyone retreated leaving Cherrymon in the flames.
***Hours Later***
Rika had woken up along with everyone else. Gargomon had gone back to his rookie form only a few minute ago. Henry was in slight disbelief at what he had done. Noone had said anything. They were still unsure because of the argument that happened the other day. A layer of tension hung in the air and everyone was to nervous to fix that. Terriermon thought about saying something but even he was slightly worried about Renamon deleting him. Jeri and Suzie stayed close to Henry holding their respective digimon. The silence wasn't going to last, not if Takato had anything to do with it.
Takato walked up to Jeri and passed his hand through her then walked off to the side. She was the only one who might speak under these circumstances. He was not disappointed.
Jeri "Um, everyone? Sorry about earlier."
The tension seemed to disappear in those few words. Henry joined in backing up Jeri. He spoke to Kazu.
Henry "Me too. Some of the stuff I said was just..." {Searching for the right word} Kazu "Stupid?" Henry "Yeah..." Kazu Smiled "Me too. I though you were just a pansy, but seeing you and Gargomon go at Cherrymon was awesome!" Takato "Note to self: Kazu still needs to learn tact"
Takato looked over to Rika who was keeping out of the conversation. While everyone was talking, Takato moved over to Rika and passed his hand through her. Rika felt the effects immediately
Rika "uh, er..." Renamon "Rika? You look troubled." Rika "It's nothing"
Renamon turned back. Guilmon was standing up as tall as he could looking at Renamon face to face. Renamon was surprised and fell back, Rika laughed instead of scolding her. Takato's effect hadn't worn off yet.
Renamon "What was that for?" Guilmon "Don't worry Rika and Renamon, you don't need to say anything for the others to understand you. Me and Takatomon understand you. You should go talk with the others" Rika pretended to give that some serious thought when she already knew what she was going to say. "... Oh alright"
Takato sat down and swiped his hand through Renamon. Who snickered at herself having fallen over, then got up and joined Rika, leaving Takato and Guilmon off to the side. The entire group was now laughing and talking energetically. Guilmon sat down. He was tired again and felt like he could hardly sit up. Suddenly he turned to his side.
Guilmon "Takatomon, why can you go through things. You said people couldn't do that before" Takato "YOU CAN SEE ME?" Guilmon "Yes... But I'm tired and hungry and is Gardromon fat or just big boned" {Takato tries to hug Guilmon and goes through him again} Takato "Uh, right you still can't feel me. Guilmon I want you to listen to me. First off Gardromon is neither since he doesn't have fat or bones, he's just... big. And second off I can't use my cards on you anymore, I can't help you at all." Guilmon "So?" Takato "Well, this is really hard for me but... I want you to have another tamer." Guilmon "WHAT? No!" {Guilmon pouted}
Renamon looked over and saw Guilmon arguing with an imaginary friend. **Cute... and weird**
Takato "As unfair as it is, this isn't a choice Guilmon! You need a tamer and right now I don't qualify... Look we'll still be friend of course, but I don't want to see anything happen to you cause I'm stuck in limbo"
Guilmon reluctantly agreed after a bit more arguing and Takato looked at his D-Arc. **Now I just have to figure out how that can be done** He tried shaking and banging the thing, but it did no good. Takato was about to give up when he heard a beeping from a few meters away. Jeri looked at her D-Arc, then at Guilmon, then at her D-Arc again as everyone huddled around her.
Henry "Hey Jeri, what's going on?" Jeri "I, I think I got a new partner"
Jeri looked on as her digivice morphed from it's usual light color to a dark Red and Black. A red Digital Hazard sign as well as some words displayed proudly on the screen.
***GUILMON*** ***^*** Level Gained ***^*** Rejuvination: 2 Digivolve: 1 Tamer: 0/1 Hazard: 0
Jeri "...This should be interesting"

Regless: Done finally Kazu: Bout damn time Regless: What the hell? Open the closet so I can see you {Kazu opens the closet} Regless: Meh, I was hoping for a digimon muse. Kazu: First Black went through about five of them while you dragged on. Regless: That guy has got issues. Kazu: Second off your no prize yourself. Regless: ...Shut up! Kazu: Momentai
Regless: Sorry this took so long all, I had work soccer a headache I had recently been neglecting my artwork so I did some of that to. Oh yeah, think I should add a Renamon Guilmon couple, that's be...interesting. Anyway R&R.

Terriermon had reminded Takato why Henry was unwilling to fight and the Goggled-Headed ghost quickly passed his hand through Henry. Terriermon had been expecting another "NO" for an answer but was quite surprised, and excited, at what he got instead.
Henry "Alright Terriermon. Get Ready!" Lopmon "Me too" Suzie "No Lopmon, you stay back"
Jeri and Calumon looked at Henry in shock. This was not at all what Henry was usually like. He didn't even seem worried anymore. He was thinking ahead to his next move. Just like the Henry Takato had known and relied on for so long.
Henry "Calumon, I may need you help in getting Terriermon to the champion form. Terriermon, do you think you can control yourself this time?" Terriermon "Of course Henry. Momentai" Takato "Gee Henry, I wish I could let you know about wishing for the blue cards. {Calumon looked directly at Takato for a moment then back at Henry}
***
Guilmon had gotten back to his feet and was ready to resume the fight. He couldn't see his tamer but he could feel his strength coursing through him. And as such, he would not lie down until he either won, or was deleted.
Guilmon "PYRO SPHERE"
The attack did nothing to Cherrymon who remained grinning widely. This however, quickly changed when Cherrymon realized his forest was rapidly catching fire.
Gargomon "Illusion Mist!"
Cherrymon was surprised again as he quickly recognized his own attack being used against him. Guilmon was approached by Henry and the rest of their group from behind. Henry had a tactics change card in his hand. It was a Cherrymon. Henry's group quickly gathered everyone before retreating. Cherrymon had enough to deal with as he tried not to catch on fire. Everyone retreated leaving Cherrymon in the flames.
***Hours Later***
Rika had woken up along with everyone else. Gargomon had gone back to his rookie form only a few minute ago. Henry was in slight disbelief at what he had done. Noone had said anything. They were still unsure because of the argument that happened the other day. A layer of tension hung in the air and everyone was to nervous to fix that. Terriermon thought about saying something but even he was slightly worried about Renamon deleting him. Jeri and Suzie stayed close to Henry holding their respective digimon. The silence wasn't going to last, not if Takato had anything to do with it.
Takato walked up to Jeri and passed his hand through her then walked off to the side. She was the only one who might speak under these circumstances. He was not disappointed.
Jeri "Um, everyone? Sorry about earlier."
The tension seemed to disappear in those few words. Henry joined in backing up Jeri. He spoke to Kazu.
Henry "Me too. Some of the stuff I said was just..." {Searching for the right word} Kazu "Stupid?" Henry "Yeah..." Kazu Smiled "Me too. I though you were just a pansy, but seeing you and Gargomon go at Cherrymon was awesome!" Takato "Note to self: Kazu still needs to learn tact"
Takato looked over to Rika who was keeping out of the conversation. While everyone was talking, Takato moved over to Rika and passed his hand through her. Rika felt the effects immediately
Rika "uh, er..." Renamon "Rika? You look troubled." Rika "It's nothing"
Renamon turned back. Guilmon was standing up as tall as he could looking at Renamon face to face. Renamon was surprised and fell back, Rika laughed instead of scolding her. Takato's effect hadn't worn off yet.
Renamon "What was that for?" Guilmon "Don't worry Rika and Renamon, you don't need to say anything for the others to understand you. Me and Takatomon understand you. You should go talk with the others" Rika pretended to give that some serious thought when she already knew what she was going to say. "... Oh alright"
Takato sat down and swiped his hand through Renamon. Who snickered at herself having fallen over, then got up and joined Rika, leaving Takato and Guilmon off to the side. The entire group was now laughing and talking energetically. Guilmon sat down. He was tired again and felt like he could hardly sit up. Suddenly he turned to his side.
Guilmon "Takatomon, why can you go through things. You said people couldn't do that before" Takato "YOU CAN SEE ME?" Guilmon "Yes... But I'm tired and hungry and is Gardromon fat or just big boned" {Takato tries to hug Guilmon and goes through him again} Takato "Uh, right you still can't feel me. Guilmon I want you to listen to me. First off Gardromon is neither since he doesn't have fat or bones, he's just... big. And second off I can't use my cards on you anymore, I can't help you at all." Guilmon "So?" Takato "Well, this is really hard for me but... I want you to have another tamer." Guilmon "WHAT? No!" {Guilmon pouted}
Renamon looked over and saw Guilmon arguing with an imaginary friend. **Cute... and weird**
Takato "As unfair as it is, this isn't a choice Guilmon! You need a tamer and right now I don't qualify... Look we'll still be friend of course, but I don't want to see anything happen to you cause I'm stuck in limbo"
Guilmon reluctantly agreed after a bit more arguing and Takato looked at his D-Arc. **Now I just have to figure out how that can be done** He tried shaking and banging the thing, but it did no good. Takato was about to give up when he heard a beeping from a few meters away. Jeri looked at her D-Arc, then at Guilmon, then at her D-Arc again as everyone huddled around her.
Henry "Hey Jeri, what's going on?" Jeri "I, I think I got a new partner"
Jeri looked on as her digivice morphed from it's usual light color to a dark Red and Black. A red Digital Hazard sign as well as some words displayed proudly on the screen.
***GUILMON*** ***^*** Level Gained ***^*** Rejuvination: 2 Digivolve: 1 Tamer: 0/1 Hazard: 0
Jeri "...This should be interesting"
******^******
Regless: Done finally Kazu: Bout damn time Regless: What the hell? Open the closet so I can see you {Kazu opens the closet} Regless: Meh, I was hoping for a digimon muse. Kazu: First Black went through about five of them while you dragged on. Regless: That guy has got issues. Kazu: Second off your no prize yourself. Regless: ...Shut up! Kazu: Momentai
Regless: Sorry this took so long all, I had work soccer a headache I had recently been neglecting my artwork so I did some of that to. Oh yeah, think I should add a Renamon Guilmon couple, that's be...interesting. Anyway R&R.
