Chapter 15
(----Koichi----)
He looks at Hige as the TerCa sits down on the comfortable couch in Hinata's house. It's been a good year since Hinata informed him of her dream and he was all for searching for the little monkey, but Hinata had him promise not to. He reluctantly promised not to or to inform anyone else about the dream.
He leans against the wall, too energized to sit around. "So, why didn't you inform us about what's going on with the JenFe!?" he demands after a good eight minutes of silences. "It didn't concern either Light village or any humans. They have their own lives other then making war with Light village you know." Hige answers. He frowns and Hinata asks, "Who's Raigi? Hunho hinted that his powerful." Hige smiles at hearing Raigi's name. "He's something beyond anything I've ever meet. He's only fourteen years old and he has tremendous power, a match between him and the gods I think." Hige says. He narrows his eyes. "He just uses chakra." He says. "He doesn't, Koichi. He uses magic and he has plenty of it. I've seen some amazing light shows that he puts on and all Soaring Wings know what Chakra is and how to detect it, and Raigi doesn't do chakra."
He glares at Hige, but doesn't say anything. He doesn't like the way this is going. He truly believes that he should have done that truth jutsu on Hige to make certain that the monkey speaks the truth. Hinata asks, "Is Raigi a threat?" Hige chuckles and answers, "Not at all! He's too young to care about relations between JenFe! and other races. He's usually busy improving on his abilities and teaching Hunho. It also seems that he's going home this year and Hunho is going with him. I admit that I wouldn't mind exploring the books and scrolls his one father gathered together." He sighs and looks toward Hinata.
"What is Hunho learning?" Hinata asks. "He's learning magic from Raigi. It seems that Hunho is a natural." Hige says. He narrows his eyes and says, "So now we have a magic using JenFe! to deal with!" "You really have changed, Koichi. What's wrong?" Hige asks. "He's baby sister is dating." Hinata says. He sends Hinate a glare and she just grins even more.
Hige just shakes his head and says, "So it's misplaced anger." "Yip." Hinata says. He then says, "And the fact that you know next to nothing about this Raigi has nothing to do with my reaction." "I do know a great deal of Raigi's fathers. He also has three of them and one was a human by the name of Takato." Hige says. He was stunned at this bit of information and it seems that Hinata was too. "How can someone have three fathers?" Hinata asks. "All three of them merged together and Raigi was born." Hige replies. "You kidding." He says. "I'm not. His father's names are Takato, Guilmon, and Calumon. I don't know much about Calumon, but it seems that Raigi got his eyes and light purple tattoo from him. From Guilmon he got most of his colouring from Guilmon and I think his smarts come from Takato." Hige says.
The silences then descends over them remained for a good thirty minutes. Then someone says, "I guess that's it then." He looks around for the speaker and found both Hinata and Hige were looking at him. It's then did he realized that it was him that spoke. "I'll not go raging off trying to confront Raigi, happy?" He says. Hinata gets up and hugs him. "Thanks." She whispers. He just sighs and Hige just smiles at them.
(----Hunho----)
He looks at his reflection and wishes that the spell could have waited until evening to dispel. For it picked a really bad time to reveal the full changes that many of members of the JenFe! race have undergone. Especially with council going on and many members were revealed to look like a totally different race.
He now has a pair of slender copper horns and at his tail with a tuff of red fur at the last few inches at the end. He stares hard at his short muzzle and at his movable ears. He notes the goldish brown skin and then at his fingertips. He now has claws at the end of his finger. He turns away from looking at his hands to look at his legs. He now is what Raigi says Digigrade; he therefore stands on his toes like Raigi does.
He turns away and looks to where the door is. He's waiting for Raigi to appear. He watches as the door opens and in walks Raigi. "And?" He asks. "The reason the spell cancelled is simple, your not JenFe! any more. Also I'm going to speed up the portal making too. I believe it's time to get all the new members out of the city before the new leaders choice to sacrifice the lot of you. I guess this means that you're all coming with me and are going to have to get comfortable with the fact that you'll be exiled from your home." Raigi says as he walks into the room and onto the couch.
He feels numb at this and asks, "What about Hige?" "You contact him, I'm going to need all my energy for the gate spell. Besides, you need the practice." Raigi says. He sighs and sits down on the floor and relaxes as best as he can in this unfamiliar body.
He finishes shaping the spell and he hears Hige's voice asks, "What?" "It's me, Hunho. The illusion spell cancelled out. Now Raigi plans to take everyone that has been transformed to his home dimension. I guess the question is simple, do you want to come?" "When?" Hige asks. "Tonight from the look of things." He answers. "I'm in." Hige says and the connection breaks and he says, "He's in." Raigi nods and he sighs.
He then does a spell to inform Soaring Blood and the other leaders who have been transformed about what's happening. They agreed that Raigi's is right about them being killed in the name of the gods and that they'll try to help calm down the others once the spell is casted.
He then didn't have much to do, but decides to pack up as many books as he can. He soon finishes packing the more important books and hides the pack with an illusion spell. He then decides to rest, for he might not have a very peaceful sleep once they all appear in Raigi's home.
(----Raigi----)
He finishes informing LoreApemon about what's happening and she promised to have rooms ready on all of the floors. He can make the changes to the Gate Way of Life after he recharges. He now just has to begin the framework, for usually the first time of casting this spell, the caster uses wards and diagrams to help with the spell, but he lacks the items and the paint.
He soon have most of what's needed created and he only needs to do the final part to bring it all together. It's also nightfall and he wakes Hunho up. He asks, "You know that sleeping spell I had you go over? You need to cast it over the JenFe!." His friend sighs but does caste the spell. He then opens the door and finds the guards fast asleep.
He then heads out of the building with many more joining him. They head for the centre of the city, were there is a large space for most of them to gather. He summons his wings and launches himself into the air. He makes it and begins to finish the spell.
He chants out the words in an ancient tongue as well as hold both arms straight out with the palms open. He has his eyes close and pictures the gate from what he remembers the first one felt like. It takes him a good three hours and he then tags Hige and the others around the city for the gate to grab. He falls forward and is caught by Soaring Blood. He says, "Don't worry about those not here, they're on their way through the gate. Just trust LoreApemon, she the one that is covered in purple fur with orange markings." He drifts off into a world of blackness.
(----LoreApemon----)
She watches as a being carrying Night, or now Raigi, walks into the hallway. She's kind of glad that Takato changed this hallway to accommodate more people. "Are you LoreApemon?" The being asks. "I am." She answers. "I'm Soaring Blood." Soaring Blood says. "It's nice to meet you." She answers.
She moves and takes Raigi off of Soaring Blood's arms. Soon more begin to arrive and she moves towards the elevator and pushes a button. She motions for some of the new residences to come over. "Push a number and it'll take you to that floor. I posted signs to let you to some rooms." She explains to the group. "Ok then. Thanks." One of them says and they move into the elevator. The doors close and she then waits for it to return. She makes note of which floor they choose and then informed the next group of which floor is taken.
As this continues to go on, she finds a red headed being looking worried at Raigi. "He's fine." She says. "I know. I'm Hunho." Hunho says. "Nice to meet you, Hunho. I heard about you from Raigi." She says to the kid. "I heard some stuff about you, but nothing about what you look like." Hunho informs her. She smiles and nods in agreement with that.
They then just relax and she continues to inform each group which levels were occupied. After a good ten hours, there only remains a group of twenty, excluding herself and Raigi. She then is surprise to notice an odd being by Soaring Blood. "The last level that's free is 23." She says. "Where do you plan on staying?" The odd creature asks. "There's this on level where all the food is, its call Mithril. It's has trees and other eatable things growing on this level." She says. "I wouldn't mind seeing this place, if you don't mind." "Not at all." She informs the being. "I'm Hige by the way." Hige informs her.
"I'll go with them." Hunho says and pushes the button. They watch as the last of the new occupies disappear behind the doors of the elevator. She then turns towards the stairs. "Aren't we taking that odd thing?" Hige asks as he follows. "Mithril can only be access by the stairs. Just think about food and when we reach the bottom, we'll be there." She explains. Hige looks surprise at this and asks, "Any animals living there?" "Nope. Only fruit and vegetables." She says.
They walk out of the wall and Hige gasps as he looks around. She moves towards a grove of trees. She then lays Raigi onto the ground and turns to see Hige examining a berry. "It's not poisonous." She informs him. "It's just so different the what's growing in our dimension." Hige admits.
"I'm interested in hearing more about your world. I don't get out much." She says. Hige chuckles at this and nods in agreement. "Only if you tell me about this place." Hige says. "It's a trade. But I warn you, you can very well be here for over a day just listening to what I know about this place." She warns. "Ok. First off, what's this place called?" Hige asks. She grins and says, "Takato gave this place the name, Gate Way of Life. I really don't know why he named it that, but it's the only name for this dimension." "Gate Way of Life? Sounds hopeful." Hige says. They continue on exchanging bits of info and she was happy to find someone to speak with and to listen too.
To Readers:
This is the last you'll see of Raigi and the others. I might in time do a story with them, but that'll be at a later date. For now, it's only Koichi being the star and for the JenFe! side of things, it'll be Forest Blade. Thanks for being patient with me with this story line. Hope it didn't ruin your expectations of how things would have worked out.
