Post by Callie and Layer on Nov 12, 2014 3:21:27 GMT
"As long as I don't get sick I'll be fine."
"Eggplants? Huh... I never actually had Eggplant before."
"They're alright. Better than some dinky mushrooms, I'll tell you that."
"Huh? I think mushrooms are alright."
"Yech, I can't stand them. That's why I always get the pizza without mushrooms. Anyway, where are the Eggplants? I'm sure I could cook up something with them and whatever else we find here. We can work together and I can make dinner."
"Oh, um, Layer... one thing before we do that...?"
"Yeah?"
"I wanna see your spirit! Please! Hey, we could even train together! Sisters stopping evil together!!!"
The woman sighed, looking at her digivice before looking back at Callie. "Later, okay? I honestly have no idea..."
Believeeeve in your heeaaarrrt
"...seriously, Callie, do you hear voices from your spirit?"
"Um... Y-yeah, but only until I got my spirit."

"Around the same place with the mushrooms. If anything purple sprouts from the tree, you found the Eggplant. DigiMushrooms usually black. But a golden one with greatest flavor exist. And there's also red one that fills your stomach for two days just by eating one."
Enzan said as he walks to the direction he pointed. Should they follow, Enzan would sometimes look at them while smiling, then focuses back on the road, trying to find if there's any mushrooms or eggplants nearby. Enzan also secretly hear the conversation between two sisters.
To think about it again, must be fun if human can turn into Digimon and do wonders. The Ryudamon thinks otherwise. What if Digimons have to blend with human society? How it will be? An amusing subject, but Enzan wouldn't bring that topic soon. Focus on the food, focus on the food...
"Sounds interesting. Too bad it can't work otherwise..."
Enzan throws a comment calmly as he walks, before the two would notice and make a respond of those words, Enzan added another sentence.
"Being a Spirit User, i mean."
"Sorry, my mind drifted too far. Must be the hunger, haha. I didn't mean anything, just giving my thoughts."
And he continues walking while hoping they would find the mushroom or eggplant tree soon, though he'll be less grateful if he bumped to those eggplants.

"A red one that fills me up for two days? I think I'll pass. I'm not quite sure how your digestive system works but it might not be safe for any humans to eat anything like that. Or humans who are digimon..."
As the sisters followed Enzan, they looked around. Mostly Layer, as Callie's perephial vision, even in her digimon form, wasn't the best. She still only had one good eye and one not so bad but still bad eye to look at people with. In this case, also to look for food.
Enzan eventually mentioned wishing there was some sort of reverse spirit user; a digimon who could turn human. But he tried to push the comment aside, blaming hunger.
"Well... hey, I guess you can get a holosuit. I guess it's the closest thing you can get."
"Hey, Callie, look up there." Layer interjected, pointed up to a tree with a few fruits. The tree itself was fairly large, and while the remaining fruits weren't too high up, they were still out of arm's reach for the group. Of only one could fly up there, and get food for Callie.
Suddenly, a black light eminated from Layer's digivice. Was it working?
You can't be what you don't want to be. But you can be someone... to aid your sister.

"Umm... holo-what?"
Enzan looked at Callie as she mentioned something about this "holo" thing. So this holo device would turn a Digimon into a human? That would be great but Enzan has no real interest about that thing. That could be a fun subject, though. Thinking how a Digimon like Numemon would disguise as a human. Enzan grinned inside his mind. This day sure is amusing.
Suddenly Layer stopped and pointed out at the tree with fruits. Enzan was not really sure about that fruit. He never seen one kind of that before. And things aren't going easy. The tree is quite tall and the fruits are on the tall branches of the tree. One doesn't simply jump and take pick the fruits.
Hope it's not the eggplants.
"That's one tall tree..."
Enzan commented as he looks from the highest branch of the tree to the root that stuck on the ground. He's thinking of something, but Layer's Digivice interrupted this and distracted Enzan instead. The black light is suspicious.
"What's happening?"

You've considered using this power. Wanting it. But it was to aid your sister. Really, only the desire to use it is what is activating it. Too bad you can't appreciate good theatrics.
Layer looked at the glowing digivice, as well as Callie and Enzan. Perhaps this wouldn't be so bad. And if all goes well her and Callie could protect each other.
"Well... that's that, then. Might as well give it a shot."
Layer was surrounded by dark red light, hiding her physical form. Once it died down, however, it revealed a Biyomon. A fairly large one at that, and colored red and green.
"I guess I did turn into a bird. I admit... I expected something more..."
Well I was going to help you identify those fruits but I guess I'm not cool enough for your superior human tastes.
"And that voice is still there."
The Biyomon looked back at the tree and began to fly up. Quite well, at that, considering many Biyomon had at best moderate flight ability. She zipped in and out of the branches, each time cutting off a fruit and letting it fall. It was a green and yellow sort of color, and larger than an apple. Whatever it was, Layer hoped it would be edible.
"She seemed to be taking it in stride..." Callie uttered to Enzan.

As the Biyomon emerged from the dark aura, the Ryudamon's mouth gaped open. Seeing the Spirit Evolution personally gives much better experience rather than hearing it from the others. A rather odd color combination, but Enzan doesn't really care about that. What gets his attention now is Layer's quick adaptation of her spirit. She flies so fast and precisely cut them down so they would fall to the ground. The Ryudamon does the catching and gathering.
"Looks like she's already get her grip on it. She's incredible for a first-timer."
Enzan said as he gathers the raining fruits.
Actually Enzan was thinking about climbing the tree and shake the branches so the tree would shake off the fruits and let them have it. If that does not work, Enzan is ready to shake the tree by force. But the latter sounds not really good. Besides, that would cause inconvenient mark and environmental damage.
"Actualy i already have a plan for getting the fruits off from the tree, but your sister already make her first move."
He keeps gathering the fruit and tries to remind Layer to not taking too many fruits. There're other Digimons that would need them.
"We shouldn't take too much! Just few more of them and we're done!"

Despite being her first time, Layer felt like this was far from it. It was like she had years and years of experience. Able to so accurately swoop in and Cuttah fruits out the trees. It was that spirit, most likely.
Yes. As holder of my power I shall grant onto thee...
Was the spirit really getting dramatic again? But her attention was drawn towards the Ryudamon, who told her not to take too many, after a few more, she stopped, landing on the ground gracefully.
"Woooow, Layer, that was so cool! We can't believe how fast you got used to your new spirit. I mean, it took me a few days to get used to this form."
Well, Layer did have to admit... it was kinda fun. Being light and speedy in their air had its perks. And she felt a bit more powerful with this new form.
"The spirit is helping me out. But can we not draw too much attention to myself? Cripes it's embarrassing enough as it is. Let's just go find those eggplants!"
"And those golden mushrooms!"
"Right... you look for the mushrooms."
I was more of a nut girl myself.

Layer's reflexes are fast. She immediately cuts few more before dropping down to the ground with grace and elegance. The fruits are more than enough to fill his own stomach and those two. Great.
"You're great, Layer. Just have more faith in your spirit and i'm sure you can be a strong spirit user."
Enzan smiled. And just after he smiles, the stomach grumbles once again. This time is the loudest rumbling stomach that Enzan ever had. He grins sheepishly, trying to hide his embarrassment away from those two. The only option left is to take the fruit and eat it, no buts. IT's not guaranteed that this fruit is safe. Enzan never had this kind of fruit before.
"Pardon me, but i'll dig in first. My stomach can't hold any longer"
Enzan then takes one of the stacked fruits and puts it on his mouth. Thanks to his experience of living in wilderness, eating many kinds of plants and meats, Enzan could make a rough estimation whether something is edible or not. Gladly, this one is edible. It's sweetness and the smell isn't that special, but this fruit is decent enough for a nourishment.
"You guys should try these fruits first! They're surprisingly good!"
Enzan exclaimed with an excited tone.
One isn't really enough for a desperately hungry stomach. He needs more, so he takes another two fruits. Then it comes to another three. But the fruits aren't that many. So Enzan decided to control his hunger and stops eating after he got about six fruits inside his stomach.
"Eggplants and mushrooms shouldn't be far from here. We'll walk that way."
Enzan said, pointing a direction near the tree that has the sweet fruit.

The Biyomon looked away upon Enzan's complement over her skill. She just said not to draw too much attention to it. But, whatever, she'll just have to deal. Callie remained excited, but she had a look of pride as well for her sister. It gave the bird a nice, warm, fuzzy feeling... or feathery.
You know me now. He knows not how much faith you did put in me.
Indeed. The two shared the same body now, and even know some of each other's memories. Layer was... admittedly sorry for doubting the dark spirit like she did. She didn't know...
Oh, Enzan was still super hungry. He took the first portion of fruits. 6 fruits to be exact. Meanwhile the sisters just took one race. Neither were too hungry at the moment, but wanted to try out the taste of this fruit, it was fairly good and delicious. Not the best thing to have been eaten but good enough to consume again at a later date,
Callie ate hers like an apple, while Layer peck-bit at it while holding it with both her wings. This caused Callie to giggle.
"Oh be quiet. I'd like to see you try eating this without hands or teeth."
Their snack now done, they went to look for the Eggplants and mushrooms, once more led by Enzan. After a short distance, Callie saw what looked like a black mass near the bottom of the tree,,, no, no they were mushrooms!
"Hey, I think I see some black mushrooms!"
"Still looking for eggplants."

The sisters are having fun with the snack. Enzan have to admit he was also tried to laugh when looking at how Layer ate her fruits.Quarreling like that looks fun. But when a quarrel is being taken seriously, that wouldn't be that fun. Oh well, focus on the foods. After all of them ready, they set off to the direction Enzan pointed.
Enzan struggles to find a group of black sprouts that could spawn at any tree that they're passing now. He's a bit in hurry, so he didn't notice that there was a lump of mushrooms on a tree near him. Gladly, the orange Spadamon noticed it. Enzan quickly beamed at Callie and the direction of her eyes.
Oh YES! Indeed! That's what Enzan was looking for since long ago! A black, ripe, crunchy and juicy DigiMushroom!
"Ah! Yes! That would be the one i'm talking about. Let me check on that."
Enzan approaches the black mass quickly. After he's near enough, Enzan looks at every single detail of the mushroom from every angle. He matches up the thing that he knew about the DigiMushrooms that he saw and the one he's inspecting, cross-cheking it several times, and finally nods in agreement that this is indeed the mushroom that he's been lookng for.
"Not too many... but it would be enough for three of us."
Enzan said, picking the mushrooms and bringing them to the sisters.
"I promise this is delicious, even for someone who doesn't like mushrooms."
Then he puts the mushrooms on the ground. He would take them, but he afraid he can't control himself since he's hungry and he could end up eating all of the 'shrooms. So he give the sisters a chance to taste the most delightful DigiMushrooms in this place.

Finding the mushrooms seemed to make Enzan quite pleased. He rushed over, examined to see if they were truly the ones he searched for, and eagerly picked them, giving them to the sisters. Callie grabbed some, but Layer was still leery at the edible fungus. Callie ate a few and smiled.
"Wow, these *are* delicious! Layer you have to try some!"
"I don't even like cooked mushrooms. Why would I eat a couple raw ones?"
"Oh come on, Layer, try them! Enzan picked them out for us to eat! He's a fun-gi!"
The two sisters burst out laughing at Callie's pun. Layer had to admit it was quite unexpected. After a few moments of laughter, it died down. "Okay, I admit, that was pretty funny. Nice timing."
"Hee hee, thanks!"
"Still not eating them, though."
"Awww, alright."

(thanks for letting me join, guys)
Ashtar had been traveling for some time now. He knew that his journey of getting stronger and digivolving was going to be tough, but he would just have to endure it. During his travels, he stumbled onto Server Woods, looking over all the different trees and plants. He was disappointed that he didn’t run into a single digimon out here, good or bad. He had been itching to do some training and engage in a fight, especially with a strong opponent. Suddenly, a low growling sound was coming from purple belly. It’s been a while since he had a proper meal to eat. He had eaten some berries that he found, but he was hoping that he could find something better and more filling.
Unknowinging, he was climbing up a hill and when he got to the top, The Armadillomon could see something in the distance. A tree with what looks like black mushrooms growing on them. Asthar mouth drooled a bit, it’s been a long time since he had any mushroom. His mother, Valerie, let him try some mushrooms once and it was really delicious to him. Then he looked over and saw some digimon eating them, a Spadamon, a Biyomon, and a Ryudamon. They all look like really strong digimon. Yummy Mushrooms and tough opponents, the young Armadillomon just had to get down there. Ashtar stepped forward and suddenly tripped, rolling down the hill. He quickly curled into a ball and rolled faster and faster. Soon he moved passed the digimon and hit the tree. He uncurled himself and looking at the digimon upside down.
“Hehe…Sorry about that guys. I guess I lost my footing. I rolled down that hill really fast, huh?” Ashtar said to them, smiling.

Looks like convincing Layer to eat mushrooms would be ended up in vain. Maybe he should look for those yucky eggplants for her. She must be hungry, too. And Callie came up with a good joke, although Enzan doesn't understand what kind of joke is that. He just follow the laughing sisters with a small giggle.
"The eggplants also supposed to be here too. Maybe we should look further."
The Ryudamon looks at Callie, then Layer, then Mushroom. Then back to Callie, Layer, and Mushroom. Looks like there's still some left for him. Taking one or two won't be that inconvenient. It's a letdown that Layer is not convinced enough to eat the mushrooms. But alas, sometimes we can't just force our ideals to the others. Maybe others don't like them and have a different view about things. Yeah, just like LAyer and her dislike of Mushrooms.
Enzan was about to pick one Digimushroom...
before something really fast is about to coming at them, perhaps crashing to Ryudamon.
His trained reflexes acted before Enzan could think of anything regarding the incoming object. He instinctively jumps aside and let the rolling... boulder(?) hit the tree.
To only realize that the rolling thing is not a boulder. It's an Armadillomon.
"Now that's an Armadillomon, Callie."
The Armadillomon looks friendly and not threatening, regardless of the mishap he caused earlier. Maybe he's just rolling too fast that he can't afford to control it.
"That was surprising. But it's okay... just be careful next time. Hills are steep."
The Ryudamon rubbed his helmet, sighing.

Well, Layer would not be convinced to eat mushrooms. After Enzan took a couple more, so did Callie. Oh well, hopefully the eggplants were good here, and there was no real loss that Layer wanted no mushrooms. In a side note, Callie was glad Enzan liked her joke. She was afraid the joke would just go over his head. But he seemed to like it so...
Before long, though, another person came, rolling down the hill at a fairly high speed. Callie wasn't in the way, but Layer quickly took to the air. Once the rolling roller stopped rolling, he revealed himself to be... a Ryudamon without armor?
"An actual Armadillomon this time! Cool! You guys almost look related!"
Ashtar seemed friendly enough, but Layer was not immediently trusting. She landed back on the ground, positioning herself to be able to see all the others. She wanted to be sure Ashtar was in the level. The digiworld was, indeed, a dangerous place.
"An accident, huh?" she asked in an incredulous tone. "You sure it wasn't on purpose?"
"Come on, are you going to distrust every digimon we meet out here?"
Layer sighed, rubbing her head a bit. "I'm cautious. He nearly hit us. Just... let me worry."

Ashtar moved himself back to his four paws and gotten a better look at the other three digimon. It seems that they were a bit shaken up about him almost running them over earlier, especially the Biyomon, who thought that he rolling at them on purpose. The armadillomon gave out a slight chuckle and stroke the back of his head.
“Heehee. Sorry if I scared you guys. I really did tripped myself over by accident , honest.” Ashtar said still giggling. “But I'm alright. I’ve been much steeper hills than that one. Crashed into harder objects too.” He said, pointing at the large obvious scar on his head.
Suddenly, his belly started to rumble again, much louder than before. He has been reminded why he came down here. “Heehee…scuse me a second, guys” He said them and turned around to see the digimushroom on the tree. He went over and started munching them down rather loudly. “Mmm…These mushrooms are so good.” After he ate quite a few, he gave off a satisfying belch, finally becoming full after such a long time. Then he return to the three, smiling at them widely.
“Sorry about that. Haven’t really eaten much for days, you know. My name is Ashtar. Who are you guys?” asked Ashtar curiously.
