Session 6
Key to Answers
Gennai sighed. Today hadn't been his day. He had been chased across the entire digital world by the Dark Blades, who hadn't even broke a sweat. He, on the other hand, was ready to die from exhaustion. This probably wasn't helped by the fact they were leading him to their base. The prophet took a deep breath. It was a fate he would have to live with. No. It was a fate the order brought down on themselves. It was their decision to experiment on them, their decision to push them to that point. In the end, they had to face the consequences. In his case, the rocket-propelled great white shark that was heading right towards him. He took a deep breath and only watched.
"Yes it worked!" A voice announced as a group of five figures dressed in cream colored cloaks ran up. A sixth uncloaked figure followed right behind, a red salamander digimon thing in it hands. The figure in question, a teenage girl, was dressed in a black t-shirt with red shorts along with matching flip-flops. Long black hair was tied into a ponytail. Two indigo eyes stared towards her teammates. She reluctantly walked over, putting the digimon down in front of her.
"Kage, what is the meaning of this?" She inquired as the boy referred to as "Kage" took a deep breath.
"We got him, Kiyu." Kage explained, walking over to the deceased Gennai. The boy dug into the man's robe, pulling a rusted key out. "This is our prize."
Kiyu only stared blankly towards them. That what she got, being the leader of a group of crazed savages known as the Dark Blades.
"I've been with you people for the past five years and yet, you're still mysterious as always." Kiyu remarked and the other dark blades laughed. "What's the story this time?"
Her teammates made a glance towards the ground, sighing. The youngest member of the group began to drag the shark back.
"Bang." The salamander digimon warned and the boy turned around. "Come back."
A small cartoon bomb rolled towards the digimon and promptly blew up, pissing the creature off even more.
"Why should they? They could still easily turn on you, Kiyu." A voice explained, only to seemingly disappear. Judging from her voice, she was probably be about Kiyu's age, which were pretty useless measurement around here. This mostly due to how complicated the time system was. But, that's a story for a different time. Even if it was the time to tell it, it wouldn't be that interesting of a story to begin with.
"Then why did he mention it?!" One of them announced, only for a piece of paper to appear. "Seriously?"
"What, Briar?" Kage inquired, only for the girl to display the piece of paper for all to see. It was some sort of IOU, suggesting the recipient to find something hard to bang their head once or multiple times in order to solve their problems.
"Let's just head back." Kiyu responded as she motioned for her friends to follow. It didn't take that long to get back to their base, a large plantation-like base that seemed to compliment the surrounding jungle. As they reached the outskirts of said base, Kage directed them to towards a small shack. It wasn't anything special, just a stone and thatch shed built by hand. By who's hand, none of them knew. Moss covered the stones and ivy was sneaking up the walls. The thatch looked moldy and ready to disintegrate at any moment. Kage pulled the rusted key back out, pushing the ivy off the door. He made a quick glance behind him, taking a deep breath.
"She's here." He whispered and snickering filled the air. "The black cat."
"That's seriously the name you're using for me?" A voice taunted as a girl walked up to them. For some reason, she had decided on a violet Lolita dress. To go with it, a pair of violet high heels and matching fishnet gloves. Long black hair trailed down to her neck, complimented by two bluish violet orbs and violet covered lips. "It's me, everyone's favorite private cutting blackgatomon slime human hybrid thing, Victoria Arcana!"
"What do you want?!" A boy shouted, forming a spike made of ice. The spike headed straight towards her, only for Victoria to switch to her slime form. Strangely, the spike exploded into a hundred tiny pieces of something after touching Victoria's slimy skin.
"You tried, Frost." She answered, switching back to her human form and walked away. For some reason, Kiyu gave chase.
"What do you want?" The hybrid inquired as Kiyu took a deep breath, pointing a throwing knife at her.
"You know, don't you?" Kiyu accused and Victoria laughed.
"Possibly." The black cat answered as the throwing knife inched closer. "You really are trying too hard. If I wanted too, I could just kill you right here. Even then, it would be rude to do it a family member."
Kiyu slammed the throwing knife into Victoria's chest, ignoring her opponent's latest comment. Even then, she was probably lying.
"See?" Kiyu only sighed, pulling the knife out. "You better go. It's best not to leave Warrioress waiting."
Reluctantly, Kiyu walked back over to the shed. For some reason, the dark blades were still standing there, waiting for her.
"It's time to head home." Kage whispered as he unlocked the lock and opened the door. Inside, it look like a grey room with nothing of much interest. The only thing that was interesting, was an old retro tv with the "bunny ears" just floating in mid-air.
"Digi-port open." A voice whispered as the dark blades cloaks disintegrated.
"Ember..." Kiyu answered as a girl with long fire red hair shook her head. She was dressed in a matching sundress along with a pair of black boots. For some reason, her oranges eyes had focused on Kiyu.
"It wasn't me, boss." Ember remarked as Kiyu focused her gaze on Bang. The young boy was dressed in a black t-shirt and jeans with a similar set of boots as Ember's. His black hair was spiky and short and his green eyes stared back. Kage and Frost were dressed similarly, just a blue t-shirt with grey shorts along with the same boots. The only differences, were Kage's smooth brown hair and grey eyes and Frost's white hair and matching eyes. Finally, Briar was dressed similarly to Ember, with dark green instead of red.
"Then who did this then?" Kage accused, only for the portal to open up. The sixsome headed through, ready for whatever awaited them on the other side...
"Are we there yet, slut?" Polly groaned. She had lost track of how many she had been asked that by her half goat-dragon man companion thing known as Aegiochusmon. She probably would have punched him at this point, if they weren't trapped in a bottle of water. It was probably not a good idea to have worn her black vest top and a pair of loose camo pants, held by a black belt. Black fingerless gloves covered her hands and a pair of athletic shoes covered her feet.
"So, how are we supposed to get out, stupid?" Polly announced, looking towards . Then an idea came to her. She grabbed onto her partner, throwing him into the plastic container. This then caused the two revert back to regular size, finding themselves on a bus filled with weirdos.
"You seriously had to take me here? Daiquiris at a bar would have been better." Ogio announced, clearing his throat. "Even if I have to deal with a whole bunch of weirdos, as my proud right as an american digimon."
Everyone's gazes turned to focus on him.
"Then you deal with us then." Astamon announced only for Ogio to laugh.
"We'll see about that, quartz puppet." Ogio taunted, proceeding to get a face full of lead from Astamon's tommy gun...
Notes:
I have no clue why I referred to Aegiochusmon as 'Ogio'.
