Back At It Again (Spirit Hunt/ Open)

Post by Feliciano vargas on Jul 24, 2019 1:54:16 GMT
Feliciano leaned on a tree next to him and decided to take a small break, he took out a water bottle from his backpack and chugged half of it down.
Here he was in a humid Jungle, with nothing but a few supplies and his wits. Not that he had anything against the jungle, but this area was dangerous, heck anywhere in the digital world was dangerous. There were two reasons he was here
1) After a long time of not being active or not detecting any spirits his D-Tector finally reacted and informed him that he had a spirit to hunt.
2) his best friend and Spirit partner, Renaissancemon need to come here, the spirit had amnesia and wished to recover his lost memories. Feliciano would do anything to help his spirit partner, he always helped Feli when ever the young man needed help
"ve, Renaissancemon are we close?" Feliciano asked after he caped his water bottle.
"Si, we are very close......Feli are you sure you want to keep going?, I can take over from here" a voice sounded from the device attached to Felicianos belt. The Italian put the water bottle away and put his backpack on again " no im sure, I need this exercise anyways " Feli said as he began to walk again. "I need to stay fit in order to survive out here Renaissancemon "
Feliciano could feel his spirit partners worry even after he fell silent, he could feel that the spirit still wanted to protest. "Besides were almost there!" Feli chirped
"yeah...." Though he didn't sound convinced the spirit decided to leave it at that, Feliciano was right after all. On the bright side his human counterpart was in much more shape then when they had first meet, heck he made it all the way out here with out needing to rest much. Plus if things got rough, his human partner had brought his skateboard as a means of quick escape.

Feliciano hummed as he made his way around fallen trees, vines or vine covered terrain. Dispite it being humid and hot Feli was enjoying the jungle smell and noises.
It was always nice to be out and about in nature, at lest once in a while to at least give your body a break from the busy and stress of city life. The italain stopped however when he took notice of the path he was taking splitting up into 5 different ones. "Hmmmmmmm, Renaissancemon what does the map say?" the human asked the spirit in the device. There was silence for a little while before the spirit answered "The far left one Feli"
Feliciano nodded and made his way down the left path, he wondered why his partner had taken so long to answer his question. Feliciano took note to ask later for now he needed to stay focused on this task, who knows what might jump out of the jungle around them and attack.

The jungle is no place for inexperienced Tamers. All sorts of dangers lay in wait beneath the dense plant life. It would seem that even seasoned travelers in the Digital World can have a hard time finding their way in the jungle. Clad in a tan outfit suited for exploring the wild is Dante and the not-so-humble one, Wormmon. Dante swings a machete around in frustration as he hacks his way through a large batch of thorn needles. He brushes his hair to the side as sweat drips down his brow.
"I hope this was worth the fruit, little buddy. I'm going to have cuts from these blasted bushes for weeks." "With great flavor comes great sacrifice, Dante. It wouldn't hurt to learn some more recipes." "Are you saying that you don't want fast food almost every night?" "Don't be foolish. Of course I want greasy burgers and fries every night, but on top of that, I want you to improve your cooking, noob!"
Dante comes across a knocked over tree and takes a seat. His breathing escalates rapidly as he struggles to clear his dry throat.
"We ran out of beverages two hours ago. I need some sugar water. We wouldn't be in this mess if you didn't lose the map." "That's what you get for putting me in charge of navigation."
The duo hears some noises off in the distance.
"What was that? I think there's someone else here." "It's getting closer. I'll save us!"
Wormmon snatches the machete from Dante.
"What are you doing? We don't know who it is yet." "I'm not taking any chances, Dante! Look out, Wormmon's coming at cha!"
Wormmon kicks Dante in the shin and waddles off towards the noise, machete in hand. Dante grabs his shin in pain before taking off after Wormmon. How will this fellow traveler react to seeing a bloodthirsty bug wielding a machete jump out?

Feliciano stopped and took out his water bottle again, the college student was just glad he thought ahead and brought more then enough of the life juice to keep him and Renaissancemon hydrated. Who went into a jungle unprepared. The young man leaned on a tree and sighed finding some relief in its nice slightly cool shade. Feliciano took out a napkin and began to wipe the sweat off his forehead, Feli didn't even flinch when his D-Tector began to glow and the warrior of hope slowly came out of the device. He pretended not to notice the look of worry his spirit partner was shooting him and instead focused on the tree line ahead of them.
Both stayed silent for a while, finally out of the corner of his eye Feli noticed that Renaissancemon opened his mouth, presumably to say something, but before he could a rustling of foliage interrupted the spirit. Both human and Digimon turned to the source of the noise in perfect sync, wasting no time the spirit quickly reentered the device and Feli stood at the ready, snapping his fingers easily calling out the band of data around his hand.
Feliciano wasn't as jumpy as he used to be when he was new to the whole digimon thing, at lest he had some experience now and knew how to deal with relentless enemy, that didn't mean he liked to destroy those that attacked him. In fact most of the time he tired talking it out, it usually worked most of the time. Feliciano expected something at lest Champion level to appear, what he didn't expect was to see a wormmon run out, wielding a machete that was obliviously much to big for the little bug. It caught Feliciano by surprise honestly. The Italian blinked owlishly at the bug digimon, not sure if he should take this situation seriously or not.
Feli....you still have a long way to go you twat

What sort of evil creature dares sneak up on the Worm King and his pet Human Dante? Wormmon is prepared to boldly face any adversary that awaits him. What he was not expecting is to run into an old friend. Wormmon's expression full of bloodlust changes in an instant to one of shock.
"YAAAAA-,huh?! Wait, do I know you?"
Dante catches up to Wormmon, his smoker's cough not far behind. Dante is surprised as well to see Feliciano and Renaissacemon again.
"Feli? Hey there! Long time, no see." "What was your name again? Does it start with an E?" "This is Feliciano and Renaissacemon, remember?"
Wormmon stares up at Dante with big confused eyes.
"We went to that magical kingdom and fought fanatical mages together?"
Wormmon's expression doesn't change.
"You seriously don't remember this? You fought as Archnemon, and actually kicked a lot of ass that time, if I recall." "Yes, well I have kicked ass in many battles. The horrors of those battles often cloud my memory, and sometimes it all kind of blends together." "Feli is Italian." "Oh, now I remember! Ya, you're the guy who cooks delicious food. Can you teach Dante how to cook?" "I don't think now is the time to improve my culinary skills. So Feli, what brings you to the jungle?" "Maybe he's looking for yummy fruits too. Quick, Dante, we need to get as much food as we can, fast!" "I don't think you should worry yourself with that."
Wormmon starts looking around and frantically collects some fruit growing nearby, including an inedible round blue fruit with spikes growing on the sides. Dante sighs and scratches the side of his head. He has been lost in the jungle with Wormmon for hours, and they still haven't found the fruit they are searching for. Maybe Feli and his royal spirit are on a more meaningful journey that would make this trip worthwhile. The Worm King's greed is overcome by his gluttony, and Wormy decides to ask Feli to cook. Wormmon crawls over to Feli and looks up, trying not to drop the fruit he is carrying.
"Can you please make me a tasty meal with this fresh produce?"
Dante is happy to be reunited with Feli, but it seems like trouble stirs whenever they cross paths. There's probably not apostates and knights roaming the jungle, aside from Wormy and Renaissacemon. The possibility of Italian food has perked up Dante's spirits.

Feliciano wasn't sure if this wormmon had been the same wormmon that was partnered with Dante and that he had fought along side during the Hacker problem. Not until he looked up at hearing a familiar voice of Dante, immediately the Italians face brightened. He had slipped out of his fighting stance and straightened up. He would have cheerily greeted them back if Wormmon didn't need a little friendly reminder about who he was.
The Italian watched with a sweat drop as Dante tried to get Wormmon to remember him, Feliciano laughed a little when Wormmon finally remembered him and his spirit partner only after Dante said he was Italian. Feliciano didn't mind teaching Dante how to cook, but just as his friend had said, now wasnt the time to give Dante a lesson in cooking
Instead the young italian laughed and smiled at wormmon, though he didnt see anything wrong in making something out here, in fact lucky for both Dante and Wormmon he always carried around tools for cooking out in the wilderness.
"Ve~, its nice to see you again too Wormmon, yeah I can make you guys something to eat, I dont mind" the Italian chirped with a happy bounce in his step. He then looked up at Dante "yeah! its great to see you both again!, glad you guys are ok!" Feli said as he took off his backpack and hummed as he took out things from her backpack. He took out to water bottles and offered them to both Digimon and Human, just as Dante asked him why he was all the way out here
"Ve~, well......." Feliciano started "We're out here because we're hunting our next spirit totem" Feliciano said with a smile, he took the fruits that Wormmon has picked and asked to be made into food. At that moment Felis device glowed and the spirit warrior slowly came out of the D-Tector and floated next to Feliciano, the spirit dipped his head in greeting "Dante, Wormmon" he greeted in his usually curt, polite way. Renaissancemon saw them both as friends, its just because of the era and the mannerisms he was thought he greeted friends in a more uniform way.

Running into Feliciano turned this trip from a disaster to a pleasant surprise. Feli is glad to see the duo as well, and when asked to cook, he happily obliged to the delight of the hungry pair. Dante is glad to receive some water. The Tamer graciously accepts the water and thanks Feli for the much needed thirst quencher. When asked about what they were doing in the jungle, Feli explains how they are on a hunt for their next spirit totem. Dante takes a big gulp of water and breathes out slowly as he relaxes.
"Ah, a spirit totem. That makes sense. We've never had to search for one before since I'm a Tamer. Thank you for offering us a meal, we're looking forward to your cooking again."
Wormmon is also happy to have some water. He gazes up at Feli with his big bug eyes and a funny smile with his sideways mouth.
"Thanks for the water, Feli! I never thought I would be so happy to have a bottle of water. Dante, why didn't you pack any?!" "I brought plenty of provisions, you just burned through them all about two feet into the jungle. I'll have to pack an extra bag next time, but you are carrying it."
Renaissacemon appears from Feli's D-Tector and greets the duo politely. Dante bows in respect.
"Greetings, Renaissacemon. It's nice to be around a Digimon that is so respectful, for a change."
Wormmon is too busy chugging water to pick up on the subtle dig. After drinking most of the water, Wormmon's antennae stick up and he raises his tiny little arms in the air.
"Alright! I've not thirsty anymore, Feli is here, he's going to cook us some delicious food later, and they are on a quest of great importance! I'm ready to kick some butt. Let's rage! Where did I put the machete?" "That's the spirit, little buddy. You should save that energy for later. You do make a good point. We would love to accompany you two on your hunt, Feliciano."
This jungle would be the perfect spot for a spirit totem to remain hidden. Maybe some extra eyes would help out, as long as Wormmon's loud personality doesn't cancel out any benefit. Dante notices the spiked blue fruit on the ground next to Wormmon.
"Uh, Wormmon, you might wanna leave that blue one out of the mix when Feli cooks." "What? It looks a little funky, but I'm sure with the right spices... We'll cut off the pointy parts."

"Ve!, im happy to help a friend in need, plus cooking is fun" the Italian chirped with a smile, it felt nice to know that your friends enjoyed your cooking, made him feel like he had accomplished something "Thank you, I try, its thanks to my brothers that I know so much about cooking" he said as he put the fruits on a cutting board and started to cut them up. "well let me just say that spirit hunting can either be a drag, or fun, depends where the totem is hidden" he joked.
He was thinking of making a fruit salad, though he didn't know what to substitute for a syrup.
"its uh no problem wormmon" feli said with a chuckle as he heard both his friends start to argue again, Renaissancemon gave Dante a small smile "Same here friend, you wouldn't believe how many times we've been attacked by both digimon or other partnered humans and digimon, it really is nice to be able to hold a conversation like this with someone" the spirit said as he floated a bit off the ground. This was truly nice
Feliciano stopped chopping up the fruits and in Sync both spirit and human partner looked at each other, as if having a silent conversation with each other before looking back at Dante. It was feliciano who spoke "Yeah that would be great, the more the merrier right" the young man said with a chuckle. Feli would have gone back to chopping up the fruits if he hadn't heard what Dante said, the young man looked at the blue fruit and tilted his head, how odd he's never seen that one before. The young cook took the fruit and inspected it.
finally he decided to see what it looked on the inside, so he placed it on the cutting board and attempted to cut it in half

Feli is happy to prepare a meal for his friends. The Italian mentions that brothers taught him about cooking.
"Ah, maybe that's why you're a lousy cook, Dante. You never listen to your sister. Look, Feli's chopping motion is better than yours too. Ooh, perfect slices. Chop, chop, chop..."
Dante would have to work with Wormmon on his manners some more later. Sure, Dante isn't that good of a cook, but lousy? It hurt Dante for Wormmon to embarrass him in front of friends like that, but the Worm King doesn't ever seem to notice or care when he tap dances on people's nerves. Feli mentions that a good spirit hunt depends on the location of the totem.
"That makes sense. From what I know, those totems are usually in remote areas protected by giant beasts, or there are encounters with others seeking the totem."
Renaissacemon agrees with Dante about finding some pleasant company while out in the Digital World for a change.
"You are right. We usually come across some angry monster or greedy Digimon. That and most of the people I've met are not known for pleasant conversations." "Like Sal, Cassius, the Handsome Boys. Eek! Just thinking about those smug bathturds makes me wanna punch their faces! Wait, what were we talking about?"
Dante looks at Renaissacemon and smiles.
"So this, hold a conversation thing, how does a bug learn to do that?"
When Feli suddenly stopped chopping the fruits, he and Renaissacemon look at each other without speaking. Dante realizes that something is up, but Wormmon continues rambling about cheesecake and what movies he saw recently. Then Feli accepts Dante's offer to join their hunt.
"Alright! Team badass is in town. The hunt is on! OWWWWWWWL!" "It's howl, not owl." "I'm pretty sure it's owl, Dante. You know, like the birdie."
Feli was almost finished chopping the fruit when Dante pointed out the blue fruit. Feli inspected it before deciding to cut it open. The hard outer layer proves to be too durable for the knife Feli is using.
"That is a weird fruit." "Can I try it? I can use the machete!" "You've already reached your waving around a machete quota for the day." "Please?! Feli, Dante's violating my second condiment rights."
Dante's face becomes noticeably frustrated at Wormmon's inaccuracies. It's a machete, not a firearm, it's amendment, and they are from Japan, currently in the Digital World. Dante tried to list his corrections, but he is too flustered.
"It's a machete, not, Japan, condiment, mustard! G'yeh! Let it go, Dante."
Dante calms down and decides not to press the issue with Wormmon.
"Fine, ask Feli if they are cool with you going all fruit ninja up in here." "Woo! Can I, please, Feli? I won't chop anyone's ear off like last time I chopped food." "Poor Misty. She can never wear sunglasses again."

Feliciano stopped trying to cut the fruit and looked at it closely, maybe it wasn't ripe yet?, some fruits had really tough skin to cut because they were still green. Whatever the case the Italian decided to stop trying to cut the fruit, least he injure himself. The young man placed the fruit beside the cutting board and chuckled when he heard Wormmon complement his skill in cutting fruits. It wasn't that hard to learn, plus having the index finger on the knife really helped with the control of the sharp tool.
"Sadly si, but usually its guarded by someone always one level stronger then us" the Italian said with a sad sigh, he was really getting tired of fighting all the time, he was being driven mad at this point.
"I'm sorry that you had run ins with terrible people amigo, but at lest not everyone's like that right" the spirit said with a small smile, he was at lest glad to see that even if they had a run in with not very kind people, they were ok
Renaissancemon blinked at Dante, he then looked down at Wormmon and then back at Dante, he smiled "well considering Wormmons level of conversation, a lot of practice" the spirit teased in a friendly way. Both spirit and human looked at Wormmon when he said Owls and laughed, it was an actual real laugh from both of them.
They really needed that
"Ve~, wormmon Dantes right, its Howl, not Owl" the soft spoken college student gently corrected. Feliciano however grew worried when he noticed Dantes frustration, then when he ranted, he wondered if something had happened between Wormmon and his friend, having problems between partners was not good nor healthy. Feli decided to ask about it later, for now he had pressing matters, like stopping wormmon from picking up and bigger then his body size blade and attempting to cut the fruit.
The Italian began to comically sweat, you see, Wormmon reminded feli to much of his American friend Alfred, the last time he let his friend cut something, he nearly caught the while kitchen on fire.
Dont ask feli how that nearly happened, because he didn't know either
He'd rather not have a whole jungle fire to deal with, thank you very much
"u-uh, n-no lets not, i-its probably not ripe a-anyways" feliciano stuttered as he held up his hands in a please stop motion, waving them from side to side as more sweat came down his face

It was a well received break indeed from the usual struggles endured while exploring the Digital World. Running into some pleasant colleagues gave Dante the chance to enjoy some good company. Dante's tolerance of Wormmon's antics has toughened over the years, but the bug is just as obnoxious as ever. Feli mentions how the totems are usually guarded by Digimon of a higher level.
"It is very difficult to battle higher level Digimon. Sure there's been some upsets, but I do not like the odds." "You don't gotta worry about that. If any big bullies try to mess with Ren and Feli, I'll use my dark magic to baptize them!" "Baptize? Don't you mean, brutalize, or something?" "I'll baptize them in the blood of my fallen enemies." "That's not exactly great pre-meal convo, little buddy."
It wasn't exactly a great comment for any time. It seems like the only time Wormmon isn't saying something inappropriate is when he is shoveling food in his face. Renaissacemon was right, it would take a lot of practice. Though if Wormmon's behavior hasn't improved as of yet, was there any hope? However, Wormmon's quirkiness brought a smile to his friends. Wormmon going crazy with a machete was making Feli start to sweat. Dante lets out a small sigh of relief when Feliciano denies Wormmon's request.
"You heard him. Put that thing away and settle down, Wormmon."
Wormmon sulks and droops his head. He stares down at the ground as his antennae go limp. He closes his eyes for a moment before calmly putting the machete in its sheath and placing it in Dante's bag.
"Alright, but first chance I get, I'm going to show you guys my sweet ninja skills."
Dante appears to be slightly confused. Maybe Wormmon was capable of growing manners.
"Sounds good. I'm sure we would like to see your skills later, from a generous, safe distance away. Was there anything else you needed for the meal, Feli?"
Knowing Wormmon, the jungle probably would catch on fire if Wormmon tried to cook. Dante tries to think of other activities Wormmon would be good at. Knitting? No, somebody would end up losing an eye. Maybe taking care of a houseplant would work.

Feliciano and even Renaissancemon where very relieved that Wormon had listened, yeah they didn't need another Alfred incident on their hands again. " Ve, and we'll be looking forward to you showing off those skills wormon" Feli said with a smile, hoping to cheer up the worm digimon a bit at lest. Renaissancemon had silently agreed with Dante, he didnt want to be anywhere near the digimon while he went crazy with any kind of weapon honestly.
They both smiled as they heard Dante and Wormons small argument. They could tell how much their friends had grown since the last time they had seen each other.
Feliciano shook his head when Dante had asked if he needed anything else from the jungle. He had all the ingredients already and in the end he had decided to make a slightly spicy curry for everyone.
"Ve, thank you for the offer Dante, but I already had all I needed " the italian said as he took out some plates and utensils from his back pack and started to serve his friends some food. "Its ready!" he chirped as he handed Wormon and Dante their plates
The curry was warm and smelled tiny bit spicy, but nothing to major, he didn't want to go ham with the spices, he understood that some people didn't like spicy food after all. He didn't know if Dante or wormon liked their food spicy.

The potential mishaps caused from Wormmon cutting or cooking had been averted for now. Feli cheers up Wormmon by telling him that they are looking forward to seeing his skills later. This perks Wormmon up, creating a joyful smile across his little bug face.
"Awesome! You're going to think my moves are so cool. See, Dante? Not everyone is boring like you." "Name calling, it never gets old."
Dante asks Feli if they need any more ingredients, but Feli confirms everything is ready. The Italian serves up the group a delightful curry meal. Dante accepts the plate and bows to thank Feli for the meal. Dante leans in and carefully blows on his curry to cool it off as steam rises from the curry. Wormmon lays down and relaxes with his head above the plate. He curiously examines the unfamiliar meal.
"Hmm, so this is curry, eh? It looks chunky and creamy all at the same time! I wonder if there's a curry pizza."
Wormmon dips his head down, sniffing the curry before slowly sipping some. His eyes widen in delight and his antennae shoot up straight.
'Wow! This curry is so good!"
Dante takes his first bite, and if he had antennae like Wormmon, they would be sticking up too. He quickly takes a couple more bites, savoring the flavor.
"This really is delicious. It's spicy, but not too spicy. Well done, Feli." "Why can't you cook like this, Dante?" "Because a majority of my cooking is just heating things up in the microwave." "Remember that time I got locked inside the microwave?" "That's because you were licking the plate." "It was so buttery. That's the best part about popcorn."
Running into old friends had never been so scrumptious. Feli and Renaissancemon clearly had it together. Dante takes a big bite of curry and relaxes as it warms his mouth.
"What do you think, Ren? Are you enjoying the curry as much as I am?" "I don't know if anyone enjoys food as much as you do. I'm getting pretty close this time." "Feli, have you ever thought about opening a food business?" "You mean a restaurant? Not a bad idea, little buddy."
If only they could enjoy a meal this good on all their adventures. Once their bellies are full, they would be that much better off searching for the spirit.

Feliciano smiled at the digimon, he was glad to see that his friend was back to his old self. Renaissancemon just kicked back and relaxed, he didn't feel like eating today, usually he would ask Feli if he could use his body to taste the food he made, but not today it seemed.
Feliciano beamed happy that they loved his cooking, to be honest his brothers were better at cooking then him, they taught him everything he needed to know after all. "Ve, im glad you liked it" the Italian said with a smile, it always felt nice to have his cooking complemented
Both spirit and human perked up however when they heard Dante and Wormons idea of opening up a restaurant. Feliciano had never really thought about that honestly. He had been planning on being a chief, but he didnt think about opening his own restaurant.
"Ve......thats a really good idea" he said, the more he thought about it the more he liked the idea. However a sudden thought had him frowning "It would be nice but........" he looked at his spirit partner. Renaissancemon nodded in understanding.
They couldn't do that right now, mostly because well.....they were constantly busy in the digital world. If feli worked 24/7 when would he be able to go out and deal with Digital world stuff.......

Dante and Wormmon are enjoying a nice meal with their old friends Feli and Renaissancemon. Hunger was replaced by delicious satisfaction, ending with them feeling nice and full. Wormmon rolls over on his back and lets his belly relax. "Ahh, that sure did hit the spot. I just wanna melt like cheese on lasagna." "Indeed. This sure beats the usual hustle and bustle."
When Wormy mentioned a "food business", Feli sounded excited and said it would be a good idea, but then he hesitated. Running a restaurant is difficult enough, even more so for a Digimon Tamer or Spirit User. Dante can attest to the struggle of juggling different parts of his life. He had missed quite a few classes off on wacky adventures. Dante nods and closes his eyes for a moment. "I get it, it's tough to commit to something so large when adventuring is such a big part about Digimon."
Dante finishes his curry, going so far as to lick the bowl a couple times, then returns the dish to Feliciano. "That sure hit the spot, thank you." "Ah huh, thanks! It was so tasty." Having enjoyed such a great meal, Wormmon forgot why they were even here. They had set out in search of fruit, and Dante probably learned a thing or two about cooking.
"What were you guys doing again? Searching for an egg?" "Wasn't it an egg hunt?" "Okay, I'll look out for eggs." "Um, I don't think it looks like the kind of egg you are thinking of." "Maybe. My kind of egg goes on a pan with lots of butter."
