Chapter 5: Mountain Trails
It was yet another beautiful day in the Digital World when Jeff and the rest of our little group arrived at a mountain range. Needless to say, they were faced with another dilemma.
"This is getting out of hand," Matt said, "Why couldn't we have a nice road leading to the Eclipse Valley?"
"Cause that would be too easy," Kotemon told him.
"I guess we have to climb," Renamon said.
"Then let's do it," Trish said.
"Like you would," Lita muttered.
"Say what?"
"Nothing."
"Why don't we just fly on Birdramon?" Gabumon suggested.
"Because the only parts of Birdramon that aren't covered with flames are her claws and beak. There's no way we can all fit," Terriermon said.
"Not to mention that we need to save our energy in case we get in trouble." Edge added.
"Okay, so flying's out of the question. Any other ideas?" Matt said.
"Hark! My Hurri-sense detects we need to pick not only the quickest route, but the safest one," Hurricane shouted. "For you see, we don't know what kind of digimon live near the mountain or on for that matter."
"Wow. Helms is making sense. Never thought I'd see the day," Edge said with a light laugh.
"I'm hungry," Pyromon said out of nowhere.
"You're always hungry. Well, maybe food will help us think," Jeff said. "Let's eat."
Later, at lunch...
"Fruit again?!" Terriermon exclaimed.
"I know how you feel, "Gabumon said, "I'm sick of it too."
"We're all sick of it," Jeff assured them, "But it not that bad. I mean, you digimon have way cooler fruit than we've got."
"How so?" Pyromon asked.
"Well our fruit doesn't taste like meat."
"Or candy, unless we make it that way," Matt said.
"Does your meat grow on trees like ours?" Biyomon asked.
Edge decided to speak up, "No. You see what we do is raise different animals, mostly pigs and cows, on farms. When they reach a certain age, weight, and health requirement, the farmer to a slaughter house, gets a big knife, and..."
"Edge! Shut up!" the Hardyz scream in horror.
"What?"
"Okay. Now on to more pressing matters," Hurricane said, trying to steer everyone away from the subject of animal slaughter, "How are we gonna get past this mountain?"
"Well, I think the obvious choice is to go around," Jeff said confidently.
"Oh really. You do realize how big those mountains are. That would take at least two weeks." Matt told his brother.
"Let's go through it then. That shouldn't take too long." Edge suggested.
"Sorry to rain on your parade Edge," Renamon said, "but I've been here before and there's no tunnel to go through. There's a trail on the mountain we can take."
"See, like I said, we should climb." Trish said as a matter-of-factly.
"Walking up a mountain trail isn't the same as climbing the mountain." Lita said with a similar tone.
"Lita, do have some kind of problem with me today or something?" Trish questioned.
"Not really a problem. More of a complaint. You see, I just don't believe that your enthusiasm about climbing the mountain is genuine because you're, well...lazy."
"Care to explain that to me."
"Well, I'm just saying that," Lita said, "for as long as I've known you, you always get your way. At our photo shoots, we don't start until you're ready. At our shows, we have our matches whenever you wanna have 'em. You always get the best hotel rooms, food, and even the best wrestling gear. And you always get it from someone else."
"So what are you saying?"
"I'm saying that you've hardly ever have to work for anything. Other people do it for. Sure, you did win the Women's Title, but that doesn't mean a thing in this world. I'm sorry but I just think you can cut it here."
Trish was silent. She wanted to say something, but didn't know what. She also had the urge to punch Lita right there, however she decided against it. All the diva did was let out a "whatever" and walk away.
"Gee Lita," Matt said, "was that really necessary?"
"I just said what was on my mind. If she can't handle it, that's her problem." Lita said compassionless.
After a while, our group started up the mountain. The guys were enjoying the hike. The girls, however, seemed to have a lot on their minds. Lita was beginning to regret what she'd said. She didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings. Maybe I should apologize, she thought.
Trish seemed quite down. Was Lita right? Trish did tend to get her way a lot. That's just in my nature, she thought. But could it also be my downfall in this world. I guess I'm just gonna have to toughen up.
"Hey Trish," Renamon said, "is everything okay?"
Trish was somewhat surprised by her digimon's show of concern. "I'm fine."
"Are you sure?"
"I said I'm fine!" Trish snapped. "Sorry Renamon. I didn't mean to yell."
Later, after dinner and while everyone slept, Trish made up her mind. She was gonna walk the trail herself. She was gonna prove that she could survive in the Digital World. Not to Lita, but to herself. "I don't need anybody to baby me." the former Women's champ said to herself. "I'm a grown woman and I can take care of myself."
So Trish walked the trail with Renamon at her side. She'd wanted to go alone, but the digimon was very insistent.
Walking the trail proved to be quite the task for Trish. She had very poor night vision and tripping over and stepping in things. So Renamon acted like a guide, warning Trish of certain things.
"Watch out for that rock," Renamon said, "and that mud puddle. See, now aren't you glad I came along. We're partners remember. We gotta..." Renamon suddenly stopped and pulled Trish to the ground as a giant blue claw flew over them. Then, a ghost with big red eyes appeared.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Computer Voice: Bakemon, a ghost digimon who isn't very smart, but his Zombie Claw is powerful.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Ohhhhhh. Leaveeeee this placeeeee!" the ghost digimon wailed.
"Can it." Renamon said.
"Hey, you're supposed to be scared." Bakemon protested. "And anyway, this mountain belongs to my friends and me. So go away!"
"And if we don't....?" Renamon said.
"Zombie Claw!" Bakemon attacked and our heroes dodged.
Can't they ever just answer? Trish thought.
"Diamond Strom!" Renamon leapt into the air and attacked. Bakemon used a Zombie Claw to block and grab Renamon. "Evil Charm!" Bakemon shot red beams from his eyes.
"Horn Attack!" Gabumon suddenly appeared from the darkness and struck Bakemon with his horn, causing the ghost to lose grip and drop Renamon.
"Gabumon? Then that means...."
"Stand back! There's a Hurricane comin' through!" said the WWE's resident superhero as he swung in on a vine. But when tried to complete his heroic entrance, he fell flat on his face.
"Thanks." Renamon said. "Even though I didn't need your help."
"Didn't look that way from where I was standing." Gabumon said before launching an attack. "Blue Blaster!"
"Diamond Strom!"
Both attacks hit dead on. "Ow!" Bakemon said. "You guys don't fight fair. Don't worry, though. I'm gonna go get my friends and then you'll be sorry." The ghost digimon then floated away.
"And don't come back." Hurricane said. "Hey Citizen Trish. What are doing out here this time of night?"
"None of your business. Now go away!" Trish snapped.
"Wait a minute. You're gonna climb the mountain yourself, aren't you?"
"Wow Helms. Your perceptiveness is amazing." Renamon said.
"Watch it Renamon." Gabumon warned. He and Renamon exchanged dirty looks.
"Calm down Renamon. We've got work to do." Trish said before walking away with her partner. Gabumon and Helms followed. "What part of 'go away' are you not understanding?"
"I'm not leaving until you go with me." Hurricane answered.
"Fine. Suit yourself. Just don't talk to me and stay out of my way." Trish said.
So our little group continued on. As you could imagine, the further everyone walked, the colder it got. It also became a little harder to breathe. For the humans, anyway.
"Here." Hurricane said as he handed Trish his cape. "Use it to stay warm."
"You know, I don't need your help." Trish said.
"I never said you did. I just thought you were cold. But excuse me for trying to something nice for someone who I thought was my friend."
"Oh. Sorry." Trish said meekly as she wrapped herself in the green cloak. Maybe she was being too hard on Helms. He's just trying to the right thing. she thought.
As she watched this whole thing, Renamon was thrown into deep thought. She couldn't understand what was so important about friendship and helping one another. She, herself, had spent her entire life alone. Well sorta. Renamon, like all digimon, had been born in the "Village of Beginnings" and had attended school, but had never had much help in anything. In the Village, she'd always gotten her own food and toys, despite Swanmon telling her not to. And in school, she never played with the other kids. She just studied and trained until she was the first to graduate, or in other words, was the first to digivolve from In-Training to Rookie. She was a loner. She never needed help from anybody nor did she help anyone. And yet, the day Trish entered the Digital World, the digimon felt draw to her, like she needed this person. Sure, Renamon had had many a chance to run off on her own adventures, but she stayed. Why am I so drawn to this human? Renamon thought. I normally couldn't care less about anyone else. Why is Trish any different?
Everyone continued on higher and got colder and even more tired. After awhile, they came to a ledge. Unlike the last one, there was no mist and everyone could see the long fall to the bottom. "Looks like this is the end. I told you we should've gone right."
"I told you we should've gone back." Hurricane retorted.
"Look, I've got a headache. So can we not argue and just go to sleep." Trish said as she pulled out her sleeping bag and climbed in. "Good night."
Helms got into his own bag and found that he was still cold. So he wrapped up in his cape, which Trish had given back.
Gabumon and Renamon stood guard. Renamon looked over her shoulder and saw Trish shivering. "Gabumon, go sleep next to Trish. I'll stand guard."
"Why? Oh, I see. You want me to keep Trish warm."
"I never said that."
"You didn't have to." Gabumon chuckled as he laid down next to the female. Renamon just huffed.
The next day.....
Back at the original campsite, everyone was shocked to find that there was only 8 of them.
"They weren't by the river." Kotemon reported as he and Matt returned form scouting.
"Guys I'm worried." Biyomon said. "Who knows what could've happened to them."
"I'm sure they're fine." Terriermon said. "Unless, of course, the ran into a SkullMeramon or something."
"Thank you Terriermon. That makes us so feel so much better." Lita said. "That's it. I'm sure they're somewhere and Biyomon and me are gonna find em'."
__________________________________________________________________
Lita is in an all pink background when she grabs her digivice, spins around with it in her hand, and holds it to the screen. Birdramon's image is drawn and Lita shouts, "Initiate Digivolution!" The usual light comes from the small device. Biyomon flies into it to begin her transformation. She grows to over 50 ft. tall and her body becomes covered in flames. The new digimon eyes blue and her feet are claws with long white talons. She has a curved beak with vicious white teeth. "Biyomon digivolve to..." Lita yelled as she fell from the sky onto the digimon's beak. The digimon finished the line by saying, "Birdramon!"
__________________________________________________________________
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Computer Voice: Birdramon, Biyomon's digivolved from. Much like her Rookie counterpart, this digimon won't hesitate to protect those she cares for. She attacks with the powerful Meteor Wing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Great idea Lita." Matt said. "Kotemon and I will come with." The two of them hopped on Birdramon's claw as the digimon flew off.
Meanwhile......
Trish and the others were having some trouble. Remember Bakemon! Well it just so happens he did have friends. One was a big rock creature that wore a helmet and the other was a spider with a skull and crossbones on her back.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Computer Voice: Golemon. A rock hard digimon whose stone body makes him hard to attack. He blast his enemies with Sulfur Flume and Rock Fist.
Computer Voice: Dokugumon is a spider digimon whose as strong as she's hard to look at. This digimon enjoys tangling her enemies in her Poison Tread and Poison Cobweb.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"This is not how I planned to start my morning." Hurricane said.
"See." Bakemon said. "I told you I'd be back. Now you're gonna pay. Show 'em guys."
"Sulfur Flume!" Golemon shot hot gas from his mouth.
"Poison Tread!" Dokugumon shot webs from her mouth.
Our heroes were smart enough to run away. The three enemy digimon pursued, attacking relentlessly. Renamon eventually got tired of running and turned to attack. "Diamond Storm!" Golemon knocked the attack away.
"Oh no. Don't worry Renamon." Trish said. "Now how does that weapon thingy work? Here it is. Activate Renamon's Yin Yang Wand!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The cursor on the option screen moved down to the "weapon" and started beeping. Then a beautiful sliver wand appeared and Renamon grabbed it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Thanks Trish." Renamon said, somewhat surprised by this show of gratitude. "Now let's try this again. Diamond Strom!" The fox digimon waved her wand around and her ice crystal attack shot from it. She managed to hit Dokugumon, who was taken back the Renamon's sudden growth in strength.
"Sulfur Flume!" Golemon tried again. Gabumon attempted to block with Blue Blaster, but the gas torn right through, knocking the small wolf out. Hurricane instantly ran to his digimon's side.
Now's my chance. Bakemon thought. "Zombie Claw!"
"Look out!" Renamon shouted. She leapt and knocked both Helms and Gabumon out of the way. The three of them rolled off the side of the mountain. "Renamon!" Trish shouted.
__________________________________________________________________
Trish is in a yellow when she takes her digivice in her hand and looks at it. She then gives a confident smile before holding it to the screen. The Champion digimon is drawn and Trish gives the activation code. "Initiate Digivolution!" Renamon hurdled into the light and began digivolving. She was still a fox, only know she was on four legs, each with a yin-yang sign on it. Each of her nine tails had a burning tip and her eyes were still blue. The new digimon had a large white mane with red and white band around it. "Renamon digivolve to....." Trish said while she hopped on the digimon back. The Champion shouted, "Kyubimon!"
__________________________________________________________________
"Well this is new." Trish said. She, Gabumon, and Helms were riding on Kyubimon. "Huh, hi?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kyubimon: Hello to you too. My name is Kyubimon and I'm always ready for a fight. The combination of speed and power I mastered as Renamon makes me a powerful opponent. I destroy my enemies with my FoxTail Inferno and Dragon Wheel.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kyubimon ran down the mountain until she was back on the trail. "Are you all alright?"
"Just fine. That's is until Bakemon and his gang come back." Trish said.
"I'll protect you."
"And so will I." Gabumon said. Then, Hurricane digivice started to glow.
"Wow. I don't know why this is happening," Hurricane said, "but I'll go with it."
__________________________________________________________________
Helms is in a sky blue backdrop when he starts Gabumon's digivolution. "Initiate Digivolution!" Gabumon jumped into the light and digivolved into a wolf digimon. He was ice blue with black stripes on his body. His tail was thin, his nails were purple, and his eyes were red. The digimon had a feathery fur mane. "Gabumon digivolve to...." Hurricane said as he jumped on the digimon's back. "Garurumon!" the mon said.
__________________________________________________________________
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Garurumon: You heard the evolution, so you probably know my name. I'm Garurumon, wolf digimon extraordinaire. I overwhelm my enemies with my vicious Howling Blaster and Slamming Attacks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Here they come." Garurumon said as the enemies appeared. "Let's get em' Kyubimon."
"Let's."
"Sulfur Flume!"
"FoxTail Inferno!" Kyubimon's tails spread out and little fireballs shot from them. They connected with the gas and there was an explosion.
"Howling Blaster!" Garurumon shot blue flames from his mouth and hit Golemon, who was blinded by smoke.
"Poison Thread!"
"Zombie Claw!"
Before either attack could do anything, Birdramon appeared. "Meteor Wing!" (This attack pretty much explains itself.)
"3-on-2." Lita said, "That's not fair not all. Good thing Birdramon's here."
"It doesn't matter how many of you there are. We'll still win. Zombie Claw!" Bakemon attacked and his friends followed suit.
"Idiots. Dragon Wheel!" Kyubimon jumped into the sky, spun around until her body was covered in flames, and launched the fire in a dragon shape.
"Howling Blaster!"
"Meteor Wing!" Our heroes' attacks connected and all three evil digimon digidevolved back to digi-eggs.
"That was fun." Kyubimon said.
"No fair. I didn't get to fight." Kotemon whined.
"Next time." Matt said.
And so, our heroes were reunited after a short separation. Lita made sure to apologize after the fight. Trish said it didn't matter though. "If you hadn't have been such a jerk, Helms and I wouldn't have gotten our cool new digimon. Plus, I kinda enjoyed the fresh mountain air." With that, the wrestlers and their digimon friends continued on to the Eclipse Valley.
===========================================================
Man, I've really been neglecting this fic. It's just I'm starting high school and those bastards gave me a summer assignment to do. So I've pretty occupied with that. But from now on, I'm gonna try to have a new chapter up every Saturday, now that I once again have free use of my computer. So expect chapter 6, "Edge's Day Out", to be coming soon. Later!
