Lashana and Telca own only themselves, Tvashtar, Kadrith, the three dragons and Telca's cat. Every other character belongs to someone that isn't us.


The Elf and The Digimon

Chapter 11: Story's End (aka Romantics at Heart.... Or Not)



"So, I take it he went then, hmm?" Kadrith chuckled, shooting the blushing Digimon a knowing look.

"Oh yeah, he came." The Elf grinned and glanced at her Bonded. "And spent his first hour there out cold."

Wolverine smirked. "Lemme guess. Telca?"

"Bingo!"

"It wasn't my fault," Telca protested from her place in Remy's arms. "I thought he was gonna kill her! I mean really, here I am, just managing to find Elfy after three days of freaking out, and there's this huge armored-turtle-thing following her!"

"I. Am. Not. A. Turtle."

"Geez," Duncan muttered from where he was sitting on a chair. "I always wondered how you two got together, but that was.... well, unexpected."

There was a low chuckle from the quetzacoatl as he extended his tail to gently nudge the Elf in the ribs. "You have to find less tramatizing ways to meet people, mi amiga."

She shrugged. "Makes it memorable at least."

"Very," Blackwargreymon chuckled, tightening his hold on her and gently nuzzling her cheek. "Very memorable."

~I have to admit.... There were times where I didn't believe that you knew what it meant to be alone,~ Mewtwo whispered to the Digimon, meeting his gaze apologetically. ~I never knew that your past had been that hard. But to live like that.... You're lucky she found you when she did.~

"I know. Trust me, I know."

"So, is there any more to this?" Tvashtar asked, sending a curious glance at the Bonded pair. "I've seen your apartment my kelestra, it must have been cramped. How long did you two end up living together?"

"What was it?" Lashana murmured to Black. "Almost two months before Telca mastered the portals? And then another three until I mastered that Gods-awful teleportation spell?"

That caught Kang's attention. "Teleportation? You never told me about that?"

"You wouldn't want to try it," Black rumbled. "Everytime she used it, it knocked her cold. Took her an hour to recover every single time."

"Needless to say, it's not one of my favorites. Especially that time I used it and accidentally teleported us to Wolf Pack Island."

"Wolf Pack...." Zegadis trailed off in horror. "But that's where...."

"The Beastmaster and Xellos live. Yes. Imagine my absolute horror when I woke up and saw that waiting for me," Lashana said drily, leaning against Black as he cuddled her close. "Lucky for us, I had learned a few handy Astral Plane spells by then."

"Finish one story before you start another," Nightcrawler protested.

"Right." Blackwargreymon wrapped his arms around Lashana's waist and casually laced his fingers together. "So, like we said, Telca gave me a.... 'memorable greeting'..... and once I came to and made sure that I wasn't brain damaged..."

"How would we know the difference?"

"Shut. Up. Kang. Anyway, it took a little while for us to sort things out. Even longer for us to work out a safe routine so that we could spend time together while not running the risk of being discovered. It was hard at first, especially since 'Shana still had to juggle work and paying the bills and all that lovely horror, but somehow - and I still don't know how - we worked it out. A year later she and Telca started the Harem."

"You slept on the floor, didn't you?" Nightcrawler smirked.

Lashana chuckled and draped her arms around her Bonded's neck. "Actually we both did. I hauled the mattress off the bed and onto the floor. It was a double sized mattress, so it was just barely big enough for the two of us."

"S'true, I woke them up one morning when I let myself in. Damn near beat him senseless again," Telca smirked.

"'Let yourself in'?" Tvashtar repeated, looking at her curiously.

"Well I had a key to her apartment of course! We exchanged keys a while ago since we visited each other at least twice a week. Saved each of us from having to fight with the various security locks of the apartment buildings." She paused and let a grin spread over her lips. "Not that they were a problem to begin with of course, but the management get edgy when they keep finding the locks melted off the doors."

"Imagine that," Kadrith muttered drily, rolling his eyes as he looked away from his Avatar. "So that's the whole story, huh?"

"Yes," Black chuckled. "Have we satisfied your nosy and gossipy streak now, or would you like us to make something up for you?"

"Hmpft! I do not gossip!"

"Oh, yeah? What was Duncan doing last night?"

"He went out drinking with Wolvie in the hopes that they could pick up women.... oh crap."

"Thanks a lot ya overgrown gecko." Wolverine growled, avoiding the two sorceresses gazes when they looked at him in annoyance, figiting under their stares until they turned their attention to Duncan, who yelped and dove under the pool table. "Uh.... Hey! I fergot about tha game!"

Telca pursed her lips a little as she watched the feral bolt from the room, a grinning Duncan hot on his heels. "Remy, remind me to do something about them later, okay?"

"Sure thing, chere. In de meantime, thou'..." He smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist he stood, pulling her up against his chest as he did so. "Remy gonna give his chere a little treat."

"Oh?"

"Oui, petit. A dinner an a movie, an den a little..." He leaned closer and whispered into his sorceress' ear, grinning when she blushed.

~Bleh.~ Mewtwo mimed gagging himself as he gathered the three sleeping dragons off of Malcho. ~I'll be in the kitchen, assuming this sight hasn't completely destroyed my appetite.~

"Well, we know that most of the Harem aren't romantics at heart," Lashana muttered as she looked at the numerous clouds of dust left behind by the rapidly retreating Harem, pausing to lightly smack her chuckling Digimon before looking back over to the other couple nearby.

"Ungrateful bastards, the whole lot of them," Telca agreed, glaring after them for a moment before beaming at her Cajun. "But enough about them! I believe you said something about a date?"
