Greymon Raids Again!.

- - - Sunday
She said I snore!
I huff a smoke ring in the sunlight outside 'our' nest. A nest that looks suspiciously like her old nest, with very few of the normal Agumon nuances. Gone are my bed rock, scratch-n-stick, and sun rock. And don't think of leaving the nest without replacing the leaves on our bed. You'd think as her, someday-soon-but-not-quite-ready-yet-Life-mate that I'd be used to her by now, right?
But she said I snore!
Okay, maybe I do. Tai's often mentioned how much easier it was to stand guard once I went to sleep. And I'll admit it, I've slept through one of Etemon's attacks. But is that any reason to lower my already dented self esteem?
Biyomon's in there right now, humming along to some song Sora taught her, while I watch the sun set on this Sunday evening, sweeping the den with a few twigs from her normal sector. I huff and try to reflect on the boredom that is the life of an Agumon.
Our new nest is situated in between our sectors, at the edge of Gabumon's area. That way, Biyomon's close enough to guard her area, I'm close enough to mine, and both of us can go to Gabumon for help. A clever arrangement.
Except, apparently, I keep her up at night. With my snoring. The nerve! All the work I put into 'our' hut, that looks exactly like her old one, and this is the thanks I get?
And yet, I'd probably go through it all again. Biyomon's one of a kind. Tai said it best once. "What males will do for females…"
Speak of the Lady Devimon…
Biyomon's done singing. She sticks her head out of the rock hut that is our nest and sighs.
"Are you coming in? Or are you going to sulk all day?"
I want to fuss at her, but she cocks her head sideways and looks at me. Her blue eyes have a way of making me feel stupid and proud at the same time. Sora calls it love. I call it indigestion. I shake my head. I wish she'd make up her mind.
I sigh. Just another week for an Agumon.
Biyomon and I head for the sack. Before we crawl in together, she tells me how Palmon's been ousted from her area, and that it took Davis, Ken, Cody, and all of the American Digidestined to secure it. I grumble. These 'Royal Knights' are getting on my nerves.
We curl together, bird and reptile, long lost blood. I let my arm grace slowly over her feathers. She shivers under my touch. Soon she's asleep, chirping silently. I on the other hand am trying desperately to keep myself from snoring. That in turn, is keeping me awake.
My thoughts turn to the Royal Knights. They've been an nuisance since their appearance. Never a full threat, but always under our skin. They're going to be tough to deal with to be sure, but I finally decide not to loose sleep in the morning. I'll call Tai in to morning to see what can be done.
I turn over, and everything gets tight. I stop moving. This isn't right. My head feels heavy, as if there were a large bony helmet…
Oh no…
Not again…
I'm Greymon. Again.
This sucks.
The last time this happened, I got into all sorts of trouble. Psycho Gazimon, a fake Etemon. An unnecessarily rude yet flirtations Koromon turned Kotemon.
I wonder how Short Rump is doing…
And to top it all off, I didn't even remain in my champion form! I regressed, for no reason at all. It was the worst week of my life.
I hope this time it's for real. I hope this time I'm a natural. I hope my involvement with the sovereigns is no more…
…
I hope I haven't crushed Biyomon…
Authors Note: It's back! Though not exactly by popular demand. Still I had a lot of fun writing the last Greymon Arc. And I plan to do the same here.
For those of you who haven't read "Greymon: King of the Monsters"… well, I'd like you to read it. But the only thing you really need to know is that this ties into my Anniversary series. And that the purpose of this mini-novelization is to flesh out Agumon (and subsequentlyall Digimon in general) as a character(s). However, I've tried to set a special goal with this one. The chapters will not go under 500 words, nor go over 1000 words. That will bring the whole tale anywhere between 3500 - 7000 words. Call it a personal goal.
At any rate, catch Greymon out next time as he tries to keep Biyomon from being crushed by his own weight on Monday. Enjoy
