Spear of obscurity (Dante)

Post by Dante on Mar 26, 2018 12:00:56 GMT
Everyone seems to be enjoying their meals. Shi mentions that the hospital food wasn't good. Wormmon is shocked that even the cake was bad.
"Even the cake? How did they mess that up? I love cake, and pie, ice cream... chicken... chocolate... sushi..."
Everything is going great, but what's this? It was all a set up! The chef takes off his moustache and reveals his hidden agenda.
"What the hell?! How dare you bring food into your sick games? I didn't know vengeance was on the menu."
While Omnimon reveals that he has poisoned the food, it doesn't seem to be working. Wormmon gets up on the table, and starts singing and dancing around.
"Shi be warned, Shi beware. By closing your eyes, you can see what isn't there. Shi be calm, open your eyes. Lies may be truth, and truth may be lies." "Dang it, Wormmon. What did I tell you about quoting old TV shows?" "Oh ya, not to do it. Sorry, I just feel kind of wonky."
Dante pushes his plate of fish away, and stands up. He takes out his Digivice and holds it in his hand.
"Looks like this chef bit off more than he can chew. Time for some just desserts." "Come on, Dante. Save some food jokes for the rest of us."

Well, it seems they weren't getting out of this without a fight, so be it then. With a short backup, the Omnimon quickly made his way through the opening on the top of the hut flying up a bit before landing outside with his arms crossed. "So it seems I must sully my hands, fine then you give me no choice. I hate to do this but I have to resort to." He said holding his hand back as Shi got ready to Biomerge, before revealing a ball. "I challenge you five to, beach combat to the death!" He shouted out holding a volleyball with a determined look on his face.
"WhAT??" Yuudai Yasuo and Shi said in unison. "The greatest challenge of all, of don't look at me like that I know I cannot possibly best you in COMBAT of all things, I mean look at you. Outnumber me five to one." He pointed out, true he did try and poison them. "So I challenge you to the beach combat, where we shall compete in five events, beach related. And whoever can win the most will get to live, and also a lifetime supply of food from that hut." He mentioned pointing at the hut.
"And what's to stop me from smearing your smug face in the sand." Shi asked with the same coldness in his voice, only intensified multiple times. "B-because I can see you and your friends are betting men, Plus you'll be a hit with the tourist watching us right now. Think I see some lady Digimon looking your way." He pointed out as Shi and the twins looked back at Digimon of all kinds were watching them right now, some already putting bets on who would win and stuff like that.

It was on now. This Omnimon had messed with the wrong guys and 'mons. The imposter chef flies out of the hole in the roof, landing on the beach. Dante is ready for a battle begin, when Omnimon challenges them to... volleyball?! Obviously, they are not foolish enough to take on three Digimon at once. He must know that they are capable fighters if they defeated his brother. Dante and Wormmon head outside.
"Oh no. You're not getting off that easily. I'd rather just crush your body into the sand." "I agree with Wormmon. Though this challenge does intrigue me. If all else fails, we gank this SoB and take his data."
It seems Dante is willing to agree to this unusual challenge. Though it is clear that he ultimately wants to battle Omnimon afterwards. It might be wise to wait for the poison to wear off, if it does have any lingering effects. Maybe Omnimon isn't quite the poison expert he thought he was.
"Alright. If that's your game. I'll impress the ladies with my skills, then blast you to kingdom come. So what events are you thinking of, you dirty non-chef?"
Hopefully the poison will not harm the group. They have only just reunited with Shi and the twins. It would be a pretty lame adventure if they get food poisoning at the start. Maybe Dante and Wormmon would be as good as whatever beach games they are going to compete in, as they were at basketball.
"Name your game, imposter. Shi, Yuudai, and Yasuo are much too strong for the likes of you. We are way out of your league. It's no wonder you are afraid of us." "Ya. He must be a big chicken underneath that tiny armor. And here I thought Omnimon was intimidating. I've eaten cheeseburgers bigger than this small fry. Whoah ya! Bring it!"

The Omnimon just floated back a bit when all of them mentioned smashing him into the sand, Thinking for a bit before coming up with an answer. Yet it seemed all of them ultimately were going to go along with his little game. "Seriously? I mean of course you would, and I'll have you know I am a top chef, that parts, not a lie. And I am very scared of all of you. Like. I will say I could probably definitely not win if I tried to fight you." He mentioned, if nothing he was very truthful about being scared of them, didn't even try and challenge them on it.
"I know, which is why I tried poison, I'm perfectly capable of admitting I am a coward, yet that is my choice and I'll ask you to respect it." he mentioned matter of factly before floating a bit in the air. "Very well, for the first game It shall be, A SWIMMING CONTEST!" He shouted before thinking for a second. "I er, don't know how to swim, So you pick your best swimmer and I'll go find someone on the island. Ok break!" He said before flying off somewhere dropping the ball on Yuudai's head before he left.
"Well, that happened." Shi said not dumbstruck at it but just curious as to what that was. "I suppose we should play along though, would be pretty bad if we just attacked him in front of these tourists." Shi mentioed as he saw the Omnimon looking though the crowds talking to some of the Digimon.
"So Dante wormmon, do you know how to swim?" Shi knew how to and he thinks Yuudai knows how to, Yasuo he wasn't sure though.

Not only is Omnimon an imposter, he's an admitted coward?
"How can I respect you when you've just admitted how gutless you are? Can't even cook fish right."
It appears the first event will be swimming. Only Omnimon won't be competing, but instead rope in other Digimon to compete on his behalf.
"Is he really asking other Digimon to compete? Spineless... spineless, I say!"
Shi asks Dante and Wormmon if they know how to swim.
"I know how to swim, but I'm not very good. Plus the last time I raced somebody while swimming, it didn't go very well. Wormmon can always Digivolve to Stingmon. He would be a good swimmer." "You're right, Dante. Though we don't want to use our most awesome athlete right out of the gate. No offense, you guys. I'll go first if you want me to. Ho ya! The King of Sting will outswim that stupid imposter's goons any day of the week."
This situations feels odd to Dante. What would a contest prove? Omnimon isn't even the one swimming. Is this really his way to avenge his brother? It's a shame for him the poison didn't work, as it was the only way this alleged chef would be able to defeat them. Not quite what Dante was expecting when he came to the spears, but he was willing to deal with the grieving brother. From his perspective, they were the villains. Though Omnimon didn't return the respect Dante is willing to give, honoring his wishes to avenge the fallen.
"I would feel bad for him, if he wasn't such a jerk." "What other choice did we have? His brother was a big meanie too, and we gave him what he had coming." "Vengeance may seem right, but in the end, it leads to more loss. Remember what Leomon went through. I only hope before this is over, Omnimon will realize this. That battle was so long ago. To hold on to that hatred, it must be eating him up inside." "Blah blah blah, Dante getting all mushy and philosock-a-mole." "You mean philosophical." "Nobody likes the grammar police. Feel free to tell Dante to shut up once in a while, you guys. Haha."

"I can't help it I can't swim, also I can't hear you, lalalalala." The Omnimon shouted from a distance, obviously, he heard everything but went right back to looking for people. Dante and Wormmon seemed to have something they could bring out that might help them with this contest, seemed god to Shi. "Probably for the best, I doubt I could swim faster than a Digimon, And Yuudai and Yasuo have tiny limbs in most of their evolved state." Though it would be very funny to watch Greymon try and swim it probably wouldn't be smart to let that happen.
"At least he's not endangering anyone else, this could be a whole lot worse." Yauso pointed out, an actual fight would disturb everyone here, at least with this no one would get hurt in the crossfire except for those who were participating. "Honestly I do feel bad but it's not like we really had a choice in the matter to fight his brother." Considering the pattern of brothers Yasuo had already thought of who the brother was in this scenario.
"All we can do is win and hope he keeps his word, either that or blow him up but even for a coward he's still an Omnimon, small one but all the same." Yuudai added as they waited for him to come back with his ally. It didn't take long as soon enough the Omnimon came back without a teammate. "I, I couldn't find someone who knows how to swim, apparently flying is In these days." He mentioned with quotations at in. "Nevertheless I shall face you, It's probably best this way, have at you." With that, he simply pointed out to the water where a small flagpole sat. "The first to touch that flag is the winner, if you fly for even a moment you lose. Same for me." He mentioned waiting for Wormmon to come up, then he'd start the race after a count of three.

There were some mixed feelings regarding Omnimon NX. Yasuo is glad they are settling their differences in a safer manner. He feels bad for what they did to his brother, but admits that they didn't really have a choice.
"It's not like we could have avoided it. His brother attacked us, put our lives in jeopardy. Had things have gone differently, it could be our friends and family seeking vengeance. Though I did get hit on the head that time, so my recall is a bit wonky."
Omnimon returns from scouting for talent. Only he is unaccompanied?
"So, you couldn't get anyone to do your dirty work for you. I thought you said you couldn't swim."
Wormmon forms a cocoon out of silk thread and Digivolves to Stingmon.
"Ho ya! Who's that gorgeous bipedal bug? It's Stingmon! The King of Sting, and the green swimming machine. Always winning. Woo woooo! But first, I must channel the energy of the great fish spirits of the ocean."
Stingmon does a few stretches, then bows down to the ocean. He strolls over to the water, bends down, and puts his antenna to the water.
"I can hear thee, great fishie spirits! Grant me the agility of a dolphin, the fury of Neptune, and the grace of Aqua Man."
Stingmon gets up and takes a starting position. Dante knows how competitive Stingmon is when it comes to battles. Swimming probably won't be different. Dante knows that Stingmon is going to be driven to win. Though he is still suspicious of these contests.

"Both of you are wrong, Yasuo you know this. Doesn't matter what they were doing, someone attacks your family you destroy them, end of story." Yuudai said sternly for once, Everyone except Shi would remember that look on Yuudai, the same one when he went to try and kill Shirou when they destroyed Shi's digivice, Yuudai wanted him dead and wanted to be the one to do it. "I understand so no matter what I'll meet his challenge headfirst regardless, It's the least we can do for taking them from him." Yuudai said seemingly alright with all this nonsense.
Shi however just shrugged. "So he can't swim, that just means we will win." He mentioned ignoring what Yuudai said, that was his business, not Shi's. "No, for while I am scared I am a man of my word, we shall see who the best swimmer shall be." He declared before going to his start line while Stingmon did some stretches. Doing some yet very weird ones where he spun around in the air for a bit holding his legs behind his head, kinda impressive in a way.
"You got this, I know you can win." Yasuo shouted out, though after he did the Omnimon turned around waving at the Digimon. "Oh thank you, I'm not so sure myself so that's so nice to hear." Mistaking Yasuo's words for his. "Alright on the count of four we will go. 1, 2, 3, ........................4" He said counting slowly waiting a while before four and then saying it jumping into the water before going forward, at a pretty fast pace.
Though what neither could know was one of the volcano's nearby had erupted, and some debris were heading right for the path in front of them.

Yuudai has a different opinion about avenging one's family. He understands that if someone attacks your family, you get involved. Dante disagrees with Yuudai's point of view.
"While it can be tempting to avenge the loss of our loved ones, it often only contributes to more pain and suffering. It would create an endless cycle of death, in the name of justice. Omnimon should have learned from his brother's mistakes, and not crossed us."
Dante's surprisingly jaded tone changes the mood. It is clear that when he wants to be serious, he can get philosophical. Maybe his time spent with the warrior priestess Kiyoko was influencing him. Nonetheless, they have a race to focus on. Omnimon mistakes Yasuo's words of encouragement to be directed at him, making Dante cringe a bit. Stingmon's Tamer would love to see the King of Sting crush this odd Super Mega in this contest.
On the count of four, Onmimn takes off, getting a head start. Stingmon is quick to respond, diving into the water and swimming at great speed. Even if Omnimon was lying when he stated that he is unable to swim, surely Stingmon's agility would outmatch them, even in the water. Though unbeknownst to the group, the real danger resides off the shore, as debris from an eruption poses an imminent threat.

uudYuudai shook his head, he seemed about to speak, though Shi cut him off before he could. "You have your views and Yuudai has his, disagree or not that's the fact that remains, personally if anyone attacked my sister I'd destroy them but that's just my view on it." Shi pointed out hoping to get them to not disagree with one another. "Yeah, while we are friends we'll end up having different views on a lot of things." Yasuo agreed shaking his head.
Omnimon was doing good for a few feet forward, then he started slowing down for a bit. Then stopping completely for a bit while in the water allowing Stingmon to get ahead of him while he seemed to panic in the water for a bit trying to get his barrings going the wrong way for a second before managing to find where he is again.
Though that didn't matter as the volcanic debris started falling down, right in the path of Stingmon making a massive splash in the water, yet one also seemed to hit the Omnimon bashing him on the head, this didn't seem to do much damage though as he was still a Mega level Digimon. Some of the rock also fell around the trio and Dante coming right for them, but Yuudai was quick to attack with a pepper breath destroying the rock before it impacted.
"The hell?" Yuudai asked scanning the sky making sure nothing else almost fell on them.

It seems those standing on the sidelines had their own opinions regarding the nature of revenge. That's alright, Dante didn't expect everyone to agree. One thing was certain, Omnimon is a jerk ass. As Omnimon slows down, Stingmon's lead continues to grow. However, debris from the volcano starts to fall from the sky towards the group. Stingmon's path is blocked by a large chunk of what used to be part of the mountain. Stingmon runs into it head, on stalling the Champion momentarily.
"Hey, what the..."
To Dante's surprise, a falling rock is heading right towards the group. Fortunately, Yuudai is able to take it out with a Pepper Breath. Dante turns to Yuudai and nods in thanks. Just because they didn't always agree didn't affect the group's friendship. Stingmon composes himself, and swims around the debris. With any luck, he'll be able to finish the rest of the race. Even with the falling debris, Stingmon refuses to fly, knowing that it would cost him the race.
"Come on, Stingmon! Don't get distracted, just keep up a good pace, and win this for us."
The group isn't the only one to notice the debris from the volcano, as other Digimon gather on the beach.
"These rocks are getting way too close for comfort. Are you still sure we should be focusing on the race right now? Not that Stingmon would give up at this point."

Yuudai gives a nod as the trio looks up at the rocks falling down. "Just focus on the race, we got this Dante." Shi said pulling out his digivice. "Biomerge activate." Shi shouted before all three of them were engulfed in Data, quickly the three of them fused to become what the tiny Digimon was, it was Omnimon of course. Quickly releasing the sword bit they held the Greymon head back before swinging with a massive amount of force seemingly lighting up the sky extending forward destroying the rest of the rocks and continuing forward a bit.
The other Omnimon didn't even seem to notice the debris crashing through each one like it was nothing slowly gaining on Stingmon, yet one final rock that the trio missed fell and landed on him, seemingly a bit harder then the others slowly made the Omnimon sink for a bit, sinking his chances at winning at the same time.
Overall the way seemed clear for Stingmon to get the goal

The spears were living up to their volcanic reputation, as earth and fire reigns from the sky. In an impressive display, Shi biomerges with Yasuo and Yuudai to form Omnimon. The knight looks a lot more impressive than his pint-sized counterpart. Omshimon swings his mighty blade and lights up the sky, destroying the falling rocks, save one that lands on Chef Omnimon.
Victory is within Stingmon's grasp. The waterways are clear. Swimming even faster than before, Stingmon returns to shore, effectively winning the race. Stingmon jumps up and down, celebrating by posing and waving his hands in the air.
"Ho yeah! Go Stingmon! Ra ra King of Sting! Sexy green swimming machine! How do you like me now, cream puff? Hoo, hoo, hoooooooo! Oh hey, when did his big brother get here? I thought you died or something."
Dante claps his hands, then does an awkward fist pump.
"Congrats, Stingmon. Cool kids, 1, Tiny Avenger, 0."
While they may have been some interference from the volcano, it was clear who the victor is. Dante is worried that the little Omnimon will complain about the falling rocks and try to say that he didn't really lose.
"If Chef Poison over there wants to complain to the nonexistent referees, I say you gank his sorry butt, and put him out of our misery."

Stingmon took the victory as if anyone didn't see that coming with what just happened to the Omnimon who hadn't surfaced yet, one more look in the sky and it seemed the worst of it had passed, the trio slowly flew down as Stingmon noticed them, after a few seconds the Biomerge was canceled as Shi and the twins fell the rest of the way to the ground all three landing seemingly cool like, even Yuudai did a pose.
With Stingmon ranting and raving it seemed some of the tourists did also, same with Shi and the twins landed like this event had gotten a bit of a crowd. Both for the event and preventing everyone from being crushed. "Just two more and he can forget this little revenge thing, hopefully." Yasuo didn't really want to destroy what seemed to be just an idiot, an idiot with power but still.
Speaking of chef poison it didn't seem like he surfaced yet, looking over he was lying facedown in the water, Yuudai was about to go check on him when he seemed to panic and start flying on his own. "WHa, oh ahh. Oh right ouch that did hurt. Are you quite alright, is no one harmed?" He asked with genuine concern before shaking his head. "Wait, I mean haha you bested me, but with four more events to go, can you handle it. Or two events if you win two more times but that won't happen I hope." He said before he ran off again, probably to go set up another event for them. "I think he's just stupid." Shi said bluntly once he left, did he even intend for them to die?

As Omnimon goes to land, the three of them defuse and land on the sandy beach like badasses. Dante expected nothing less, but didn't take Shi's swagger for granted. The crowd seemed to be growing larger, intrigued by what the group was up to. Omnimon NX lies face down in the water, and seems to be meeting a watery fate. Dante and Stingmon just stand around, not going to his rescue. The alleged chef finally rises out of the water, and to Dante's surprise, he doesn't protest the result. Even more surprising, he shows concern for others?! This coming from the Digimon that just tried to poison them.
"Woo! That's right, Stingmon in the house! Where my ladies at? Oh hey, that Omnimon was our buddies. Looking good, Yuudai!"
The next question is what event would the vengeful brother choose next. Dante didn't care much for these events. At best, it gave them something fun to do, but the fact that their opponent tried to poison them, and was somewhat of an oddball, kind of took the fun out of it for Dante. This Digimon was trying to avenge his brother, and playing games didn't seem like the right way to work this out. Though it was better than having an all out battle on the beach. Dante hopes the volcano settles down for the remainder of these games, but the spears can be unpredictable.
"Alright, I didn't come here to show up some chump. I came here to par-tay! Now that I have proven myself to be a master class swimmer, I'm going to hit the bar and get me something to drink."
Stingmon casually saunters through the crowd, high fiving Digimon as he walks by. He strolls over to a different beach shack, and orders a fruit smoothie. It's served with a cute mini umbrella that fit the area so well. Stingmon takes a sip, then looks over at his friends and waves.
"Well, Stingmon's got the right idea. Okay then, what do you have in mind next, Chef Omnimon?"
