Chapter Three: A Chilling Revelation
I was shaken rudely from my sleep by a blood curdling scream. I rubbed my eyes and looked around, looking for the source...I saw my little brother standing in the doorway, eyes wide as saucers, mouth agape, and my mother standing to the side of him, calmly evaluating the situation. A few grocery bags we're off to the side.I felt Rena stirring, and looked up at her face as her eyes snapped open, instantly alert. My mother spoke up, whispering through her teeth
"....Look around slowly, and dont make a sound"
I spoke up myself "Mom, dont worry..This is Rena...Shes perfectly friendly"
She seemed very relieved "Oh...Son, next time you have a new...Friend, TELL me before he...She..."
"She" I said, before mom could use the dreaded "It"
"She comes over.."
"Well its not like I planned this...Your not gonna believe this, but a digital feild popped up in our backyard...This is half of what came out"
"And the other half?"
"Deleted by yours truly..." Rena eyed me, so I quickly added "Sorta..."
My mother didnt seem at all disturbed by the fact that a Digimon had once again come into our world...She smiled jovially "Well if shes going to stay for dinner, tell me so I know how much to make..." Yup, thats my mom...An army bursting through the front door woudnt faze her, she would just offer them tea...
"Im not sure how long shes going to stay..."
"Renamon? How long are you planning on staying?"
I looked up hopefully...Rena looked thoughtful, then looked down at me, and I gave her my best puppy eyes. She smiled warmly, then put one of her large paws on each of my shoulders
"Gradius saved me..He seems to want me to stay..."
~damn straight!~
"So I suppose I wouldnt mind..."
~Well, Id like it if she were a BIT more gung-ho about it, but not minding is fine...~
My mom laughed "Well be careful..He grows on you...Come on, Jordan, help me get the rest of these groceries..." She started to bustle about, putting things away, cooking things, various mom stuff...Rena walked to my bedroom with me in tow.
"You can have my bed. I dont mind sleeping on the floor" I said
She didnt say anything..She just nodded.
"I guess we just kick around here for a bit until suppers ready"
She simply nodded again...She seemed to be studying me.
"Whats wrong? Is there something on my face?"
She shaked her head quickly "N..No. You remind me of someone..."
"Oh...Er..Who would that be?"
She looked uncomfortable...I decided not to press the issue
"Dont worry about it....I dont wanna pry"
"Thank you...."
~~~~~~~~~~
Rena stayed with me for a year...I thought she was going to leave after a few days, but for some reason she stuck around. We seemed to be getting closer, and she seemed to enjoy the calm life. Not to mention my moms cooking. Maybe it was because she didnt know HOW to get home, or she didnt want to... But my sixth sense told me that there was something I didnt know...There was something deeper then this, keeping her around.....I guess it didnt really matter, if it was something I had any business knowing, she would tell me...It was the one year aniversery of her arrival. I had decided to do something special...Little did I know, something outside of my knowledge had something "Special" planned, too.............. ~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up early, and checked to see that Rena was asleep. She was. I immediatly began plotting. I snuck into my kitchen, where my mom was waiting. "Allright.." I said covertly "You know the plan, but Ill give it one more run through for good measure"
Mom gave me a look "yes, Commodore..."
"Quiet you" I said playfully "Ill distract Rena by making up some junk about a digital field and asking her to help me with it...While Im doing that, Id like you to bake a cake. A big angel food one, with strawberries! Mission clear?"
She had been patiantly waiting.." Yes, I get it. Its not that difficult really"
"Allright! Ill go get Rena.." I walked toward my room, to find that Rena was just waking up. I acted excited...
"Rena! I just heard on the news that a "Dense bank of fog" Has appeared in town!"
She looked urgent "Where? I cant sense it" She looked around with her eyes closed
"Uh...It must be...A...Atmospheric conditions. Lets hurry!"
I started to go out the door, only to feel a very strong claw pick mer up by the coller. I was placed on a furry, muscular back and seemed to be gong very quickly through my front yard. Rena jumped with me, and suddenly everything went dark...I couldnt hear anything, feel anything, see anything...I was floating in an endless void, Rena didnt seem to be there either. This feeling lasted for a split second, and suddenly everything snapped back into place. We were in town now, and Rena was there again. I hugged her a bit, shivering slightly. Considering everything was gone for a few seconds, I think I took it pretty well. Rena looked at me apologetically, still bounding through the town.
"Sorry, Gradius...I forgot to tell you about teleportation"
"D..Dont worry, Im ok..." I took a deep breath and calmed myself "Lets find that fog now...Ill search the north. "
She stopped, and I jumped off with a thud. I nodded and started to leave, but she stopped me. She smiled and offered me my sword.
"Allright! Thanks Rena" I took it and put it in its scabbard. I ran off to the north, looking back to see that she was allready gone. I ducked into the first shop I found and sat down. I took a deep breath, and waited a bit...Then, to make it realistic, I took my own sword and cut my arms up a bit. nothing big, just a few on the tops. I cleaned the blood off and put it away again. I was caughyt off guard with how fast Rena arrived. I quickly acted winded.
"Gradiius, are you allright? I...I felt your injury. What was it?" She seemed concerned...Wait..Did she say she felt it? ...I felt good and bad at the same time.
"Er..It was just a stupid Goburimon...It got a cheap shot in, but I wiped it out"
"Allright..Im just glad your ok" I smiled. Inside and outside. The cake should have been done by then, so I acted tired
"That should be it..How bout we head home?"
She nodded and scooped me up.and then we were ripping home again. The house was dark, as planned. I opened the door and went in, looking around. I smelled the cake. I assumed that Rena would, too..She did. She sniffed the hair, looking hungry
"Something smells good..." She looked around hungrily
"I dunno.." I acted lost...
"Gradius...You cant fool me, remember?"
*gulp* "Fool you? Why would I do that..." I laughed nervously
"Because you have been slowly falling in love with me since we met"
I was noticably shocked...
She leaned down a little and gave me a small lick "Thank you for caring..." She smiled softly "Ill act surprised"
I smiled and gave her a small hug "Thanks..."
We walked in together, and she was a good sport and acted surprised. We hung around and listened to music and ate cake. We had lots of fun, just being near each other...It got late, and we were the only ones awake...Rena looked like she was thinking as we retired to my room. I had something on my mind, too....I voiced it.
"Rena? ...Remember a year ago, when you said I reminded you of someone?...I keep thinking about that..."
"..I suppose it would do no harm to tell you..." I listened closely "You remind me of my mate.."
My eyes widened...I felt terrible! "Mate?? Why didnt you tell me?? I wouldnt have kept you here if Id known..."
She put a paw to my mouth "No...Rokoujomon died a long time ago..."
..."Wh..When..?" I had a strange feeling of dread...That I couldnt quite comprehend
"16 years ago...I believe the date was"
"August 23rd, 1988" We said at the same time...I was in some kind of trance...
Rena started "How did you know that?!"
"I..I dont know...But Rena" I looked down, as if searching for an explanation "August 23rd 1988...Is my birthdate" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Preview
Things have been peaceful so far, but in the next chapter, things heat up. I still dont know about this Rokoujomon. But I cant help but feel we have some osrt of connection...Maybe its just a coincidence. But I dont have time to worry about that now! The shit has hit the fan, and I have a big problem to solve.
