I think I'm a Clone now

It had been 1 whole day since Ryan was omitted from the hospital. The doctors told him to take it easy for a while, but Ryan couldn't think about what they said as he tried his best to get ready for Rika's birthday party tommorrow. Ryan decided to stop wearing his trenchcoat now, he felt that since he no longer worried about Renamon's death as much as he used to, he doesn't need it anymore. He walked towards his closet and saw a yellow vest and put it on. It didn't have any sleeves on it so Ryan decided to keep wearing his black long sleeved shirt and his black pants. He put on his shoes and walked towards his door to get some fresh air before the party tommorrow. Ryan walked to the flower shop and saw some roses for sale.

Ryan: "Roses huh? They were Renamon's favorites. Maybe I should pay Renamon another visit." Said Ryan and he walked over to the shop, the clerk said she'd be with him in a minute. Ryan couldn't tell but he thought that the clerk's voice sounded familiar, then when the clerk stood up from under the counter Ryan found out why. It was Rena, she worked at the flower shop that Ryan was currently at. She smiled as soon as she saw Ryan.

Rena: "Hey there! It's good to see you again!" Said an excited Rena, Ryan smiled and nodded. Then Rena giggled.

Rena: "Ha! I knew you could smile, your not all frowns!" Shouted Rena triumphantly, Ryan just looked at the roses.

Ryan: "How much are the roses?" Asked Ryan, Rena stopped laughing and looked at the price tag on the back of the counter.

Rena: "Umm...let's see...that will be 5.00." Said Rena, Ryan nodded and digged his hand into his pocket and got all of the necessary money out and handed it to Rena. She nodded and wrapped the flowers in a bag to protect them, but the tops of the roses were still sticking out, making it look nice. Rena handed them to Ryan, he took them and waved goodbye and was about to walk away, but Rena shouted to him quick.

Rena: "Hey wait! What's your name?" Asked Rena, Ryan tilted his head questionially but then he just shrugged.

Ryan: "My name is Ryan, I'll see you around." Said Ryan and he walked away leaving Rena standing there. She smiled and shouted goodbye and she went back to work. Ryan nodded and he kept walking towards the building where Renamon had died.

Ryan had just gotten to the top of the building where Renamon had died when he decided to sit down and look at the stars for a while. He set the flowers down where he usually did and he sat down at the edge of the building and watched the stars for a while. Then he heard someone behind him and he nearly drew his sword, but then he saw who it was. It was Rika and Gatomon, they both had flowers in their hands and layed them down next to the roses that Ryan had layed down. Then they both sat down next to Ryan, Rika just looked at Ryan and then at the stars.

Rika: "It's been a while huh Ryan?" Said Rika, Ryan nodded and smiled.

Ryan: "Yea, too long. It's good to see you two again." Said Ryan, Rika smiled, Gatomon looked at the ground. She couldn't bear to look at Ryan for what she had done. Ryan saw this and looked at the ground as well. Then he put his hand on Gatomon's shoulder.

Ryan: "Gatomon...I understand why you did it, and I just want you to know...I forgive you." Said Ryan, Gatomon had tears in her eyes and hugged Ryan as hard as she could and was crying into his shirt. Ryan just hugged back and just let her cry there. He thought she should just let it out of her system. Rika looked towards the stars.

Rika: "I know Renamon probably forgives you too. After all, you two were friends." Said Rika and she patted Gatomon's head to calm her down. Gatomon stopped crying and apologized to Ryan. He just shook his head and told her not to worry about it. The three just sat there looking at the stars and thinking of the party tommorrow when a voice came out of nowhere. The three looked up to see a figure in the darkness.

??: "Digimon can't have friends, they are just mindless tools used to crush our enemies." Then the figure jumped down from where he was standing and landed next to Ryan. Ryan then saw who it was, it was Evan. Ryan jumped back and took out his sword. Evan did the same, Rika and Gatomon got up and stood next to Ryan.

Ryan: "If you've come here to talk, forget it! I've put my past behind me and now I'm looking forward to a brighter future. A future where Digimon aren't slaves for fighting!" Shouted Ryan, Evan smirked and ran at Ryan.

Evan: "Inspiring words, I WILL MAKE THEM YOUR LAST COPY!!" Shouted Evan as he slashed at Ryan, Ryan blocked it and the two kept trying to slash and kick at each other. Neither was gaining the upper hand, then Gatomon joined in when Rika used the Plasma Sword card. She slashed at Evan's legs while Ryan slashed at his stomach. Evan kept blocking them and trying to knock them back. He was having a bit of trouble fighting them both at the same time. It wouldn't be so much trouble if it were just Ryan. But the little annoying feline had to get in the way, Evan then slammed his sword down on Gatomon trying to crush her. It would have worked if Ryan hadn't blocked him off with his sword, Evan slammed his foot into Gatomon's stomach sending her back aways. Then Ryan slammed his sword towards Evan. Evan blocked it and the two just held their swords there together. The two just glaring at one another, Ryan vs Evan. Ryan's eyes suddenly changed, his eyes changed from their dark calm blue, to a sharp icy blue. And the area around his eyes changed from white to black. Ryan't teeth became longer and more canine-like. And finally his fingernails had grown even longer.

Rika: "Wha...What's going on Ryan?" Asked Rika, Ryan, Gatomon, and even Evan were shocked as to what was happening to Ryan, then Ryan was enveloped in a white light.

Back at Ryan's apartment...

Ryan's digivice which was still on the ground from when Ryan threw it, started floating and it was enveloped in a white light, then there were words on the digivice.

DIGIVOLUTION

Unkown...

It's eyes shot open and It struggled to get out of the tank, breaking several wires in the process, and nearly rupturing the tank. It knew what It had to do now. It HAD to see him, It couldn't wait, and It was enveloped in a white light. But then before It could break the tank, the computer had sprung to life and administered a sleeping toxin which slowly brought It to sleep. Then It closed It's eyes again, and It fell asleep again. Then the computer monitor beeped to life.

RESTORATION AT 69 percent.

With Ryan, Rika, Gatomon, and Evan...

Ryan was envoloped in a white light and it blinded everyone, Gatomon was star-eyed as Ryan kept glowing, Rika was sorta afraid, Evan just gritted his teeth.

Ryan digivolve too...RenamonEX!!

After the light had dissipated, everyone looked back to see that Ryan had been replaced by a male Renamon with a long purple glove on his left arm with spikes attached to it and purple pants. The Renamon also had strange earings on and it looked a bit taller than the regular Renamon. RenamonEX just looked at himself. Then he concentrated his energy into a long sword that had a purple blade. RenamonEX smirked and looked at Evan and growled. It charged at him and started slashing and hacking away. Evan barely had time to react and he just kept parrying attack after attack, he was nearly slashed in the neck but he ducked and kicked RenamonEX in the stomach, but to Evan's surprise, RenamonEX didn't even flinch, and it slammed Evan away with a strong punch to the face, then it charged at Evan and slammed it's foot towards his face, but Evan ducked and stabbed RenamonEX. Evan smirked but that quickly vanished when RenamonEX just waved his finger at Evan.

Renamon: "Ah-ah-ah that's not very NICE!!" And RenamonEX slammed his fist into Evan's face, sending him back a couple of yards. Evan was at the edge of the building on his back and he was in pretty bad shape. RenamonEX just stood there and took Evan's sword out of his stomach. Then RenamonEX de-digivolved into Ryan. Ryan just stood there and looked at Evan's sword, then he looked at his own. He saw the differences, and the similarities. But he mostly saw the differences, then he walked towards Evan and kneeled down next to him and offered Evan his sword back. Evan just looked at him as if he had grown a second head.

Evan: "What are you doing? How do you know I won't kill you or not?" Asked Evan, Ryan just shook his head and smiled.

Ryan: "Because you and I are the same, but at the same time we are different. We have different thoughts and different feelings, I am my own person, and so are you. You just need to find yourself." Said Ryan as he put the sword in Evan's hand. Evan just looked him and down at his sword. Then slowly Evan stood up and started limping away.

Evan: "Heh, whatever you say Co...I mean, Ryan. But just so we are clear, I won't show the same mercy that you did." Said Evan and he limped down the stairs of the building. Ryan, Rika, and Gatomon just watched him go. Ryan felt like he had lifted a great weight from his shoulders and he smiled. Then he walked over to Gatomon and helped her up.

Ryan: "Are you ok?" Asked Ryan, Gatomon nodded and her blade dissapeared. Rika walked over to Gatomon and patted her on the head. Then there was a small light and a card floated down towards Ryan, Ryan caught it and saw that the card was purple and yellow in color. Ryan thought about checking it out later. So Ryan, Rika, and Gatomon went down the steps as well and took a look back at the building that had just been the whitness of a battle to decide who Ryan really was, and in the end, Ryan was indeed himself. There was no real or fake, it was just him. Then he walked Rika and Gatomon home.

Unkown...

It's arms twitched and It tried to move again, It found that It could move a lot better than It used to and It could open It's eyes a bit. It saw that the tank It was still in was being repaired by many small robots. It then looked around to see a large computer with words on it.

RESTORATION AT 87 PERCENT...

It then felt It's eyelids become heavy and It fell asleep again, dreaming of the day that it would be with him again. The computer then saw the screen around the tank It was in turn green. Meaning that It was almost ready to come out.

COMPUTER: "RESTORATION PROGRESSING AT A ACCEPTIBLE SPEED, AS SOON AS RESTORATION IS OVER IT WILL BE ALLOWED OUT OF IT"S CONTAINMENT. IT SEEMS TO HAVE AN INTEREST IN HUMAN COPY #35. COPY NAME, RYAN FON FABRES. OBTAIN ALL DATA ON HUMAN COPY #35." Ordered the compurter, the little droids went to work at procuring the necessary items and kept fixing the tank that It was in.
