Disclaimer: I do not own digimon. Ryu, Strikemon and all of Strikemon's
digivolutions are mine though.
Hmmm...I wonder...was that only a dream? It seemed far too real for just that...I looked down at my digimon/human body. I wonder...if I could shift my form from hybrid to digimon...maybe...I concentrated on my human body, and seconds later, the wings had disappeared, and I was back to normal.
Hey! It worked! I guess it wasn't a dream after all.
Great! Err...Ryu...do you think we could try to split and see if it works too?
"As two became one, now let one become two!"
"..."
So much for that...
I shifted uncomfortably, only one day with wings, and I already missed them. I wonder if I can use the morphing ability to partially transform...I focused on a hybrid form that was slightly different from before, and felt the changes begin.
My torso remained completely human, except for the wings, but from my waist down, my body had completely transformed. My legs were now completely covered in scales, and I was balanced on the three talons that had replaced my toes. (A/N: Or in plain English, he's dragon from the waist down. What can I say? I really like the myrrimidon from BoF3 ^_^;)
I flew into the air, then dove into the water, and when I heard them waking up, I shot out of the water, and judging by their yells, gave them a bit of a soaking.
It took a little while for me to explain what happened, at least as far as my new looks were concerned, but after eating breakfast, which consisted of some fruit from the nearby trees, we left.
About an hour later, they were back in the forest, and I was in the air just above the tops of the trees, and keeping an eye out for any other digimon. The others had just entered the "forest of pointless road signs" when I felt a chill.
"What the hell!?" I spun around in the air, and saw what looked like a black gear flying toward me, and I was sure that it was the source of the feeling. As it flew by, I dove under it, and... "Flare Strike!"
It wobbled a little, but stabilized and flew away before I could get another shot off.
I landed behind the others, and heard them discussing the gear. A few seconds later, Sora noticed that I was there, and started directing questions my way.
"Hey Ryu, you probably got a better look at it then we did, what was that thing?"
I sighed, "It looked like a black gear. Other than that, all I can say is that if it bodes well for us, then I'm a flaming Sovereign Digimon."
Err...Ryu....remember?
Huh? Oh, that's right...Azulongmon said we were, didn't he? Well...they don't know that, so the phrase works.
"I'm going back up. See ya." I launched myself into the air and resumed flying.
It's strange...I feel like something's drawing me toward the mountains.
I can feel it too. Maybe it's one of the Seals that Azulongmon was talking about.
About an hour later, I saw the forest ending, and a large desert ahead, and landed to let them know.
"Hey Tai, you're coming up to a desert in about half an hour. Mind if I borrow the telescope for a minute?"
"Why?" "Because I want to see if there's anything across the desert, and you are waaaaay too heavy to carry!" He handed the telescope over, and I flew back up, and scanned the desert. I thought I saw a village, but even with the telescope, it seemed tiny. I flew back down and returned the telescope. "So...what did you find?" Tai asked. "There's a village across the desert, and it seems to be our best option at the moment. I'll wait for you at the edge of the forest." I flew back into the air, and flew ahead of the group to the edge of the forest.
They caught up with me fifteen minutes later, and no sooner had they stepped into the open, when I felt a chill again. "Oh, crap...." I looked up, and saw the gear again. "Flare Strike!" I fired another burst at it, but apparently, it was too far away to hit, and my attack dissipated before reaching the gear. The gear turned away from us, and crashed into a hill in the distance. We started across the desert, toward the village that I saw earlier. I led them toward the village, but completely ignored most of their conversation due to the fact that I was talking with Strikemon most of the way. Strikemon...do you know anything about those black gears? I've seen them before, if that's what you're asking. Anything else? Leomon said something about them putting digimon under an evil spell. Leomon? Sure, he's a pretty cool digimon. Very serious and almost always fighting with Ogremon. Those two go beyond the normal Virus/Vaccine battles. It's like they were born only to fight with each other. Sounds like a guy I could get along with. He said that the gears turn good digimon into evil digimon. Then Ogremon showed up and they started fighting again. Then I guess we should be careful...Hey! There's the village! I turned around. "Hey, gu-err...." I turned forward again, and saw the others halfway to the village. "...would it have killed them to tell me they were going?" I muttered, before opening my wings and flying to catch up. I saw the others enter the village, and flew slowly around the perimeter of the village, just to be sure that everything was okay. Call me paranoid if you want, but anything's better than being dead. I didn't see anything odd, so I landed in the village, and saw a large pillar of fire erupt from a well. Okay....that's definitely not normal.... I walked over to them and heard them discussing the "guardian" of the volcano, some digimon called Meramon. Let's see...I'm definitely getting the feeling that I'm being pulled, and it's coming from the volcano! I gasped as a sudden chill ran down my spine. I spun to look at one of the tiny Yokomon. "You said that Meramon is the guardian of that volcano over there right?" "Yes, he's the guardian of Mount Mihirashi. Why?" "I've got a really bad feeling. You should be prepared to evacuate soon." I turned to face Tai and the others. "You guys should stay here in case something happens. I'm going to check out the area again." I snapped my wings open, and flew toward Mount Mihirashi. A little more than halfway there, I saw Meramon come sliding down the mountain. "Burning...burning...burning...BURNING!!!" "Huh?" Err...Strikemon? Meramon is a fire type right? Yeah... So, he shouldn't be burning himself, right? Right. Then what's up? I have no idea...Watch out! I pulled up sharply and just barely managed to dodge Meramon's fireball. "As two became one, now let one become two!" My wrist blades snapped forward, and I slashed at Meramon's arm as I passed, leaving a (relatively) small wound behind. "Flare Strike!" Strikemon's attack hit just as I passed, but when I came around to attack again, Meramon seemed even bigger than before, and I halted my attack. "Hey, Strikemon? Is it just me, or did he get bigger!?" "Let's not do that again." "Agreed. Huh?" The feeling of being pulled came back stronger than ever, and was coming from Mount Mihirashi. "Strikemon, do you feel that?" "Yeah. Should we check it out?" "Definitely. Greymon and Garurumon should be able to handle Meramon easily." With that, we both took off for Mount Mihirashi.
After a bit of searching, we managed to find a cave hidden behind a huge boulder. "Hey Ryu, how do we get in?" "Simple...three two one..." "Flare Strike!" "Flare Strike!" Our combined attacks managed to fracture the rock, but the pieces remained in place. "Dammit! Strikemon, lets give it another shot! Flare Strike!" The impact from our second attack was enough to crumble most of the boulder to dust, and we stepped into the cave. Lying on a small shelf cut out from the rock, were two glowing crystals. "Hey Strikemon take a look. There's two of them, one for each of us. How considerate." As we picked up the crystals, the glow gradually increased until it was so bright that I couldn't see anything. A few moments later, the glow faded, and I felt a rush of power running through me. "Hey Ryu, nice look." "Huh?" Looking down at myself, I saw that my body had changed. Growing from each knee was a single wicked looking blade, and my scales seemed even more armor-like than before. I also felt, rather than saw a line of spikes running down my spine. My digivice (A/N: I'm getting tired of saying gauntlet) had also changed. It was now completely black and resembled a dragon's head, with my hand coming out of the dragon's mouth, a small display on the top of the dragon's head, and added armor plating running all the way up my arm. Looking up, I saw that Strikemon had also changed. He had blades running from his knees and elbows, his scales looked more armored than before, and from what I could see of his tail, he had the row of spikes going down his back as well. "You too Strikemon." Stepping out to the mouth of the cave, I looked toward the village. "Well, we should probably head back. Just in case they need our help." "Right." Once again, we took to the air, and flew back to the village. What a pity...we go as fast as we can, and still manage to miss the fight. We landed on a hill just outside of the village. "Strikemon, back to one I think." "Yeah." He glowed for a moment and faded, and I felt his presence in my mind again. I opened my wings, and flew over to where the others were. "Ryu! Where were you?" "Heh...Sorry Tai." I held up my right arm, so the new armor could be clearly seen. "I just found something up in the mountains." "Hey guys! The Yokomon are inviting us to stay the night!" Sora said. "Thanks Sora! Well Tai, shall we be going?" I walked past him, and halted a few feet behind him. "Besides. I knew that you would manage to take Meramon down somehow. I have complete faith in your abilities."
A few hours later, after eating and hearing the details of the battle, I found a nice spot outside, and went to sleep.
