Episode 2
Authors note: I DO NOT OWN DIGIMON. Except for felymon, she is copyright of my imagination
"Tamer?"
"You're my Tamer?" The cat asked clearly confused. It stepped closer, scenting the air "That's not right, I don't want a stupid human." Alice's jaw dropped, again, she didn't care if it was a cat; nobody calls Alice stupid. Her lips pulled back into an animal like snarl. Her ice blue eyes scanned over the gray winged cat. It looked like it was pouting. Then curiosity got the better of her anger,
"Tamer?" She repeated, her eyes not moving from the gray and black form. The cat looked at Alice like she was mentally retarded.
"Ummm, duh, my partner, my Tamer…" It thought for a seconded then added disgustedly, "My equal." Alice looked at it, her face containing distinct traces of anger, annoyance and a shred of wonder.
"What do you have against me? And what are you?" She shifted her gaze from its blazing yellow eyes, to its wings, to its tail then back to its eyes.
"First: Humans kill each other, they created us mainly to kill, and they smell like rotten peanuts. Second: I'm a Digimon," It stated proudly. For around the fourth time Alice's jaw dropped, "Peanuts?" She began to say four different sentences at once then took a breath collected her thoughts then said:
"But Digimon is just a card game." The cat rolled its' eyes like Alice was some sort of idiot. "We're gonna go see Chris." Alice said determinately, ignoring the cat-digimon. "This is just too freaky, he'll know what I should do with you."
After getting the stubborn Digimon that called herself 'Felymon' into Alice's backpack she set out for Chris' apartment. Luckily her father was still at work. Alice's mother had died when she was eight and her father had to take two jobs just to support his only daughter. Alice didn't like to think about her mom, she'd rather suck it up than to grieve for the rest of her life. 'Life moves on, so should you' is what Alice's counselor her dad had set her up with always said. "Stupid counselor." She muttered under her breath "I already knew that.
"What was that?" Alice looked up; she was in front of the doors to Chris' apartment. He had just walked out those doors.
"Human," Felymon barked, "It's stuffy in here, let me out." Chris had an astonished look on his face when he realized the voice was coming from Alice's blue backpack.
"Okay, this might be a little freaky so don't scream or something." Alice said as she took off her pack and opened it, "Chris, meet Felymon." The cat poked its head out, then jumped out of the bag and landed with out a sound on the paved sidewalk. Surprisingly there was no one walking around in the streets of Tokyo. Now it was Chris' turn to drop his jaw.
"A…a digimon!" he exclaimed, he bent down and picked Felymon up. His goggles fell over his eyes so he held the digi-kitty with one hand as he adjusted his goggles.
"Goggle head, I really don't think you should…" Just then Felymon turned in his hands and raked her claws down the side of his face. Chris yelped in pain and dropped the Digimon.
"Told you so." Alice smiled. "C'mon." She led him into the building
Alice sat ona couch across from the chair Chris was sitting on,Felymon was sitting next to her but looking away like she didn't (and diddn't want to) know her 'Tamer'. Alice lifted the white and gray device for Chris to look at.
"What is it?" She asked looking down at Felymon then back up at Chris. He looked hard at her, probably trying to figure out if she was joking or not.
"It's a Digivice," he took it from her and inspected it, " It looks like a card reader." Alice knew he was referring to the little scanner he uses when in a Digimon TCG battle. It scans the card and modifies/enhances the digimon card that is in play.
"Which means…?" Alice glanced down as Felymon who was looking at Chris also.
"That means you should be able to use Modify Cards on your partner." Chris paused then asked: "You have Modify Cards right?" Alice shook her head 'no'. He sighed and handed her a card and her Digivice back. "Just swipe it through." He instructed. Alice fumbled with the two objects until they were inline.
"Okay, lets give this a try…"
