Not the best time (Dante)

Post by Dante on Feb 16, 2020 9:03:42 GMT
When Wormmon insulted his Tamer, Clayton came to Dante's defense. "Oh thanks, glad I could help." Dante had hoped that the fishy smell had faded by now, but it was clear that people could still smell it when Clayton backed away and wiped his hand off. "You smell like the store with all that funny smelling food, the one with the fish and crabs in tanks in the back."
It was hard to sum up just how powerful a Digimon could be. Even a Champion could go rampaging around the city, and nothing short of the military or another Digimon could stop them. It didn't sound like Dante need worry about Clayton charging head in to a fight for no reason.
Clayton examines his D-tector, mentioning he is in this for the long run. Dante recalls when he first discovered the truth about Digimon, and how his whole life was about to change. "I think that you are doing this for the right reasons. Generally, it is assumed that we must protect both worlds from evil Digimon, but there isn't a manual." "Yep. The fate of all existence rests in the hands of everyday teens and dorky young adults like Dante who can't make it to class on time."
It must be nice to be a Spirit User, and actually be able to transform into a powerful Digimon. Dante could do little but cheer from the sidelines and try to save his skin. "Since you are a Spirit User, in order to unlock higher stages, you will have to find your spirits either in the Digital World or possibly even the city." "Yep, you'll have to go on egg hunts. I think there is a giant bunny involved." "You are thinking of armor eggs. Spirit Users go on spirit hunts." "Sounds like a trip to the liquor store." "Great, now Willow is stealing my jokes."

Yeah Dante didn't smell that good yet, definitely not as bad as before but fish smell is still fish smell regardless of strength. Maybe they could hang an air freshener on his jacket. Clayton stiffled a life imagining Dante walking around with those clipped onto him.
But what Dante said about the right reasons made Clay pause for a moment. "The right reason huh." he did want to make sure no one got hurt, but his main focus felt like it'd be on finding out if his sister went to the digital world or not, maybe that was selfish he didn't know but part of him needed closure. "Jeez no pressure or anything Wormmon." the fate of all existence! That felt like a bit of a stretch.
But the little comedy duo between Wormmon and Dante made Clayton chuckle a bit. "Eh, kinda sad I'll be by myself, you two make a pretty good comedy duo. Ever think of trying stand up?" Clay joked. "Suppose I should look for those spirits, better to have them and not need em then visa versa" Clay pointed out, seemed easy but the hunt part might make it more difficult. "How do regular digimon gain strength though? Just by training or is there some super secret thing they gotta find also." best to know how they get more power, after all if he's fighting them might give him an advantage.

Things had turned around for them after they got to the buffet. Dante was having a good time talking with his new friend Clayton. Maybe Wormmon did make the stakes sound high. The fate of the world? No, certainly some experienced Tamers would come along and stop an evil monster rampaging through Toky- I mean Shibuya, right?
Clayton mentions that Dante and Wormmon would make a good comedy duo. Wormmon smiles, loving the praise and another chance to make fun of Dante. "A comedy duo? Ya, I can see that. Though I'm not a rezbian like Piedmon." "He means 'thespian'." "That's what I said." "See, we're doing it again. You are a little stand up machine, little buddy." "Just another thing I'm awesome at. I can give you my autograph, Clayton, if you want." Dante facepalms. "I don't think that is necessary."
The new Spirit User decides that he should find these spirits in case he needs them. Sounds like he will be searching the Digital World for his missing sister. Clay asks how regular Digimon gain strength? "Battle, eating a lot, and absorbing data from defeated Digimon. It's a lot like dog fighting." Wormmon feels bad that Clayton won't have a Digimon following him around. "Maybe we should get you a virtual pet so you won't feel lonely!" "Wormmon keeps overfeeding his."

Well it seems the stand up thing was going pretty well for the duo, they seemed to be natural at it. "While an autograph from the Worm King sounds good I think I'm gonna pass on that one thanks." Clay would have no idea how to respond to someone seeing anything with Wormmon written on it, 1 day into his digimon career and he'd of blown the whole secret out for everyone.
It also appeared that Digimon got stronger pretty easily, if just by battling and absorbing Data? That last one was pretty self explanatory. After all, digimon, just made sense. "Overfeeding huh, trying to get it to evolve?" doubtful that'd ever happen but still could be interesting. "I'll be fine though, I usually work better alone after a-" Clayton stopped mid sentence as he saw something out of the restaurant's back window, black and pointy ears. "wait ain't that?" Clayton said pointing over to the window.
Sure enough through the window leading into the alley appeared to be the same BlackGuilmon, but he quickly rushed out of sight of the window further into the alley. "I think that was the same digimon as before, should we follow it?" Clayton didn't know how to handle something like this, after all they were eating but something felt off to him about what he saw.

An autograph for the Worm King? That would probably only matter to Wormmon, feeding his ego. Though he would probably sign it something really elaborate with a lot of self imposed titles, and his penmanship is, lacking. Clayton asks if Wormmon keeps feeding his virtual pet to get it to evolve. "No, I just think it's funny making him fat." "You're looking a bit round there, yourself, Willow. I mean, when you are not wearing the holosuit. Though you didn't show it when you were zooming around in that battle."
While the three are eating, Clayton notices something out the window. Black and pointy ears? Dante notices Clayton sees something odd. The Spirit User says he thinks he recognizes the Digimon, and asks if they should follow it. Dante goes from 0 to 80, getting ready to pursue the Digimon. "A Digimon outside?! Yes, let's go follow it."
Clayton said he thinks he saw the Digimon before. Could they have had something to do with his D-tector? Willow's eyes widen at the prospect of a chase. "Another Digimon? Ya, let's catch it!" Dante frantically scarfs down some more food and gets ready to go. "We're not going to catch it." "But, this guy sold me some balls that will catch wild Digimon if we weaken them in battle." "That's so cruel! Sounds like animal abuse." "No, but then we make them fighter each other, and-" "We don't have time for this right now!"

Clayton should have figured that it would be their job to pursue, while Dante and Wormmon got on their comedy routine he stood up and ran off towards the back. "I'll go on ahead, I got this." maybe it was his overconfidence talking but he felt great after that meal, this was just the chance to show he could defend himself, if it was against a rookie he should be fine.
Quickly running out the back door he managed to catch the digimon before they turned around. "Alright no cheap shots now, bring it on." the digimon was the black Guilmon again looking back, still pretty beat up but also a bit mad noticing who it was. "Oh, it's you again." Getting ready to fight Clayton took his digivice out and swiped his hand on it like he did before, only for nothing to happen at all. "Er, hold on." Clayton looked at the digivice and his hand not knowing how this was supposed to work at all.
The opponent didn't want to wait though and built up another fireball and fired it right at Clayton, acting on instinct Clay held his hand with the device up to block his face, this time his hand and device lit up and before the fireball hit him he turned into Kotemon again blocking the fireball with the blade. "Ok, randomly deciding when to work and when not to, whatever." holding his sword out he stood facing the Guilmon

As Dante was shoveling some more food into his face, Clayton decides that he's got this and takes off towards the back door. Dante looks around in a panic, not wanting to cause a scene. When the coast is clear, Dante gets up and starts shuffling towards the door before getting steadily faster until bolting out the back door. Willow follows behind Dante, carrying two plates of food with.
When Dante reaches the exit, it appears he was too late. A BlackGuilmon had launched a fireball at the human. He tries to Spirit evolve, but his D-Tector does not respond. The flames from the attack caused Clayton to cast a shadow across Dante. The blast hits the D-Tector, but when the smoke clears, Kotemon has appeared. Willow gasps in awe at the timely transformation. "Whoah! That was so badass, you guys!"
After scarfing down the rest of the food, Willow throws the plates at the Guilmon. The Worm King deactivates the sexy holosuit, and Wormy appears in all his little green glory. "Be careful! This isn't the best place to be fighting." "You're just worried another box of fish is going to hit you. Well, go back inside with the other ladies and let the mons handle this."

Dante and Wormmon had shown up, calling Clay a badass filled his Ego a bit more, though he was more focused on the task at hand. "Luckily i managed to make the thing work, alright let's finish this Wormmon." this wasn't the best place to fight but if they finished the fight quickly it should be no problem.
The black Guilmon seemed really mad now after the plates hit him, a dark aura surrounded him as he outstretched his arms letting out a low growl. "First I lose to that loser, now you guys. Alright I'll take you both out." That loser? Clayton was about to ask what he was talking about but before he could blink the Guilmon was on top of them slashing wildly at both Clay and Wormmon with darkness enhanced claws.
Clay did his best to deflect the blows with his sword but was quickly overwhelmed getting knocked back a bit by the sheer force of the blows. "What's with that Aura?" he seemed stronger then before, maybe a last gasp? Clayton couldn't find an opening to attack, deciding to take the blunt of the hits so hopefully Wormmon could get behind him or something.

Clayton's timing had been fortunate. A blast of fire that big was bad enough for a fellow Rookie Digimon, but could take a human down in one hit. It was clear Kotemon was gun ho about taking care of business again. However, this time it wasn't so easy. The BlackGuilmon mentioned losing another battle to someone else. "Who are you calling a loser?! Sounds like the coffee calling the pot kettle." "You were so close."
They had defeated the lizard before easily enough, sending him packing with his tail between his legs. This time was different. BlackGuilmon goes into a frenzy, unleashing melee strikes with his razor sharp claws. It was all Kotemon and Wormmon could do to dodge and block his attacks. Clayton mentions an aura around BlackGuilmon. Something was definitely up.
Dante makes a startled expression. What had happened over the course of their meal that turned them into this? Suddenly a rarely lit light bulb goes off in Dante's mind. BlackGuilmon had mistaken Clayton for the wrong guy before. "Did you find who you were looking for, fiend?! You're not getting away this time!"
Wormmon continues to dodge, looking for an opening, but is noticeably slower after the meal. Even with Kotemon taking the brunt, BlackGuilmon was too fearsome. Wormmon dodges to the side and springs forward with a headbutt. Would his attack land, or did it just leave him open for a counterattack?

Clayton held his ground planting his feet and blocking whatever he could, Wormmon took the hint and backed off to get a better angle of attack while the Guilmon heard Dante. "Yeah I did, and thanks to you guys I lost against that jerk." So that explained why he was so mad, they did wound him quite a bit in their last fight so he must be blaming them for his loss.
Thanks to Dante distracting him with words Wormmon managed to hit his mark knocking the digimon off balance and giving Clayton a bit of breathing room. "Sorry but that doesn't give you an excuse for attacking us." Clay held his sword in front of him closing his eyes for a few moments before dashing forward striking the Guilmon with his blade at a blinding speed knocking him back further claws grinding against the ground.
Still he held his ground standing though clearly wounded he wasn't giving up, if it wasn't for the fact this was their enemy Clayton would applaud their willpower. "No way, I ain't losing three times in a row." Building up another fireball he launched it right at Clayton again, blocking with his sword this one proved too much and sent the Kotemon flying back sliding against the ground.

It turns out that Dante was correct. BlackGuilmon had apparently gone on to find and lose to this guy, and then after that loss attacked Clayton outside the buffet. Fortunately, the Digimon was distracted by Dante. Thrown off his game, Wormmon's attack lands, knocking the lizard back. Dante continues taunting BlackGuilmon. "Cowards like you attack from the shadows. And yet, you still lose." "Learn to trash talk, Dante. Hey! You big dummy! You're so stupid, you don't know whether to wind your ass or scratch your watch!" "Four out of ten."This must be quite the disturbed Digimon. He was clearly mad about something, and back to back losses spurred his fiery rage. Clayton capitalized on the opening and knocks Guilmon back with his sword. The BlackGuilmon mentions he won't lose three times in a row. Another fireball knocks Kotemon to the ground. Stuffed full of food, Wormmon does not want to deal with this pest again. "I fought you as a Rookie last time, but let's see how you like the King'ah, of the Sting'ah!" "No Champion. Not unless the enemy Digivolves." "What about a computer mice? I mean compromise?" "What are you talking about?"
Wormmon flaps his front legs rapidly like wings. "It's M-M-M-Moth Time!" Dante's Digivice begins to glow yellow. "Wormmon, Armor Digivolve to-" With the Digimental of Determination, Wormmon forms a cocoon out of thread and bursts out as Mothmon. "Mothhhhhmoooon!" "Wormmon with wings and a Gatling gun. This will end well." Mothmon takes aim at BlackGuilmon and uses Gatling Blaster, unloading a barrage of gunfire at the lizard, all while cackling like a maniac. ________________ Gatling Blaster: Fires a spray of gunfire from the gun on its tail.

The Guilmon seemed very bothered by what Dante said, stopping his fighting stance looked at him. "Hey, that 'attack' from the shadows was a mistake pal, I always fight fair Mr three on one." He kinda had a point, it was Wormmon and Clayton plus Dante kinda against him but Clay was new to this and the Guilmon did technically start it. "Still doesn't give you an excuse to ATTACK US AGAIN!" Clayton yelled from on the ground slowly getting up.
The Guilmon did seem effected a bit by what they said but the now firing maniac was his top priority, holding his arms out blocking what he could but the spray overtook him knocking him to the ground. He'd stay there for a moment before throwing his arms up swearing at nothing in the sky.
Eventually he'd sit up smashing his claws against the ground mad. "Ughh, gosh freggin. Today is not my effin day. First I get mugged, then challenged to a duel now THIS!" He seemed very frustrated but calmed himself down. "Look I'm sorry about attacking you, I'm just so god dang mad right now, beat up. In a place I dunno." Seemed everyone today was having a bad day, but the pissed off digimon seemed calm enough for now.

Dante chirping from the sidelines seemed to work. More importantly, it got BlackGuilmon to stop fighting, which is what Dante wanted initially when the Digimon jumped Clayton. Dante wasn't the only one upset that this Digimon had attacked them again. Clayton shouts at the Digimon while rising from the ground. The lizard claims that they are the ones who are fighting three on one. Well, sort of. It was Kotemon's first battle, and Dante was just running his mouth.
Just when it seemed like a battle could be averted, Wormmon had pulled out the big guns. The frantic yellowjacket unloads lead at the Guilmon, guarding with his forearms. "Whu hu ha ha haa! You can't handle the fury!" Between calling his tactics into question and the assault from Mothmon, the BlackGuilmon had enough.
It seems Dante wasn't the only one having a bad day. The Digimon explains a series of problems faced today. Mothmon holds his fire when he notices Guilmon not fighting back. "Hey! It's no fun if you start crying." "Ceasefire, good buddy. You have a gun so big, you don't need to fire it."
Dante takes a few steps closer towards the BlackGuilmon. "You better not attack us again! I'd rather talk to you and find out what's wrong, but you attacked first and asked questions later, then ran off. So you're having a bad day, eh? Why didn't you just ask us for help?" "Come on, I need some target practice! Less talking, more violence." "Can you calm yourself for 5 minutes?" "No can do, Dante. SUGAR RUUUUUUUSH!"

The Guilmon seemed to get angry once more when Wormmon taunted him, but he took a quick breath and calmed down again as Dante started talking to him, getting closer the Guilmon made no motion to attack or anything and just sat there. "Look, like I said I'm sorry about that, I thought the guy I was supposed to be fighting brought someone to jump me two on one, I got mad so decided to try and make it even. How was I supposed to know that was the wrong Kotemon?" Clay got up the digimon form disappearing as he rose.
"So you were supposed to fight a Kotemon around here?" Clay asked casually putting his hands in his pockets, the battle mood was gone it seemed. "Yeah, aside from that most humans I know try to delete me if they find me here, I mean I get it yeah protect your world and junk but he wouldn't meet anywhere but here for some reason." That part did seem odd, was the Kotemon planning on the Guilmon getting hurt before their match?
Both Clay and the Guilmon seemed very concerned at Wormmon and his so called sugar rush, then Clayton got an idea. "Hey is this Kotemon the same one that mugged you?" Clay asked to which the Guilmon nodded. "That's right, said it was his and I had to win it fair and square, which is why I got so dang mad when I saw a two on one coming my way."
"Hey Wormmon, how about this, wanna use that sugar rush? How about we find that Kotemon and teach them what for? I'm not really happy about this mistaken identity thing." Clayton asked looking at Dante, part of him felt bad for the Guilmon, even if he did take a fireball or two ta the head.

The formally hostile BlackGuilmon goes on to explain his situation. When he saw a Kotemon that was not alone, he thought he would get jumped, so he did the jumping instead. He also mentioned most humans would delete him if they saw a Digimon in the human world. "What are you doing in this city in the first place? You're not allowed to roam freely here, no matter who challenges you." "I say we delete humans who show up in the Digital World! Tis only fair, ya?"
The battle was over, but Wormy is still riding high on a sugar rush after all that ice cream. Clayton suggests using that energy to track down and attack the Digimon who mugged BGmon. "Another battle? Ya, let's go gank him!" "After this is all over, I am making sure that all rogue Digimon involved are going back to the Digital World." "Ooh, wee, look at me! I'm Dante, super bossy pants!"
Mothmon begins zooming about side to side, eyes spazzing out. Dante agrees to go apprehend the Kotemon who mugged BGmon. "Alright, let's go. I just want to check something." Dante takes out his phone and scrolls around for a few seconds. "20 days, and they still can't get to my profile edit?!"
