MPC Name:Wildcard/A Meeting with a Time Traveler
MPC Number:88X/28
Reward Requested:Bits
Sitting under a tree in an a tree in Mandrake's home village and attempting to meditate was LJ. In his head were thoughts of an event that happened to him a few months ago. Unfortunately the worst of the memories returned and LJ groaned in frustration as it seemed meditation was not going to be possible for the time so he pushed himself to his feet. Why his mind was on events that had past was unknown to him so he decided to try and focus on something else.
The sound of footsteps caught the Leomon X's attention as LJ turned his head seeing one of his grandfathers, a Jijimon named Theron, approach him as if making a direct beeline. 'Of course gramps' empathic sense would naturally lead him to a family member even if the distress was the slightest.' LJ thought not feeling the slightest bit annoyed as Theron was just being Theron after all.
"I hope I am not bothering you, LJ. I know you were trying to meditate but then I sensed you were feeling, how should I put it, uncomfortable. I can tell it's from when you had your legs stolen a couple months ago." Theron said causing LJ to sigh.
"Again your telepathy is right on the money but it isn't losing the limbs that bothers me that much anymore. The Digital World is known for unusual things to happen both good and bad. What hurt more was almost everyone was willing to abandon me to potentially die out there in my vulnerable state. Good thing you showed up when you did and took me to your place. I am still amazed that you were able to brew a potion that allowed my legs to grow back." LJ said as the two began walking to Theron's home.
"It was merely one of the many potions I've learned to brew over the years, LJ, and if you are interested in learning it one day I would wait until you've learned to be more focused and patient. Just so you know the potion wouldn't work on those who lost their limbs to normal means like battle or disease so it won't regrow Mandrake's arm for example." Theron explained as the two entered the home and sat down. Unknown to LJ, Theron was sensing something unusual but couldn't put his finger on what it was.
In the future....
A small yellow digimon with a ukulele on its back was moving through a forest. The one who caused the problem had sealed those in the Village of Magic in a barrier but, even though the being who cast the barrier was weakened, the ukulele sporting digimon was worried about being successful. Reaching its destination which was a fading portal which the enemy had passed through. Taking a deep breath to compose itself the little one leapt through the portal while praying for success.
Back in the present....
Theron felt it again only now it was even stronger as two minds that definitely didn't belong in the forest were nearby. One was stronger than the other but even the stronger one was a flea to Theron even as Jijimon so it seemed to be a champion level threat while there was no mistaking the strength of the other mind as no more than a rookie. "Gramps?" LJ asked sounding confused before he then asked "Gramps, what's wrong?"
LJ's words snapped Theron out of his distracted state and he answered "A magical energy has come from the forest nearby, LJ, bringing two unfamiliar minds with it but something is not right. I feel like I felt something like this before but I can't remember where from. While I try to figure it out I want you to investigate the nearby forest but be careful for we have no idea what has appeared out there."
Standing up LJ headed for the door before turning to Theron and said "I'll be careful, Gramps, I promise." With that said LJ left Theron's home and headed into the nearby forest. As he walked around he sniffed around for unfamiliar scents and listened for danger as well. It was when he sensed magic he came to a stop turned in the direction the energy was coming from and began walking again is when he picked up the scent of an unknown digimon that carried the scent of his parents in it's data. Something was wrong as Kshin was his only sibling and Kshin was adopted and possessed no magic of any kind. So him being confused was more than an understatement. Increasing his pace to a running speed, LJ dashed in the direction of the scent until he found a Pulsemon with a ukulele walking around as if looking for something or someone. The Pulsemon had some features that were different than the average. The places that were light green on a Pulsemon were pink instead and when the stranger turned toward each other they locked eyes and he saw that the stranger had heterochromia with the left eye being brown and the right eye being sapphire blue. Speaking up first LJ asked "Who are you? What are you doing out here and why?" he paused before he continued "Why does your data smell of my parents and how come I sense magic coming off you?"
The stranger kept a passive posture before speaking in a feminine voice as she said "Those are fair questions. Though I don't know if you'd believe me."
"Try me." LJ said sounding annoyed.
"My name is Melody and not only am I from the future but I am your younger sister." the stranger now known as Melody stated causing LJ to look totally confused.
LJ narrowed his eyes and growled "Sister? What kind of trick is this? I don't have a sister?"
Melody sighed as she knew she should of expected such a hostile reaction but, deciding to take a chance, said "Like I said, I am from the future from a time where I had reached rookie a short time ago."
LJ crossed his arms his gaze still narrowed at Melody and said "Prove it."
She was warned of LJ's stubbornness but it was worse than she thought it would be at this time. With a sigh she pinched the bridge of her nose before she gazed back into LJ's eyes and said "From your baby to rookie stage you had nightmares involving the SkullSatamon that almost killed you and our dads. I was the first sibling you revealed this to even though I have a feeling Theron knows it as well but has remained silent about it."
LJ went from suspicious to silently dumbfounded in one go so Melody then said "As for why I am here, I have come through a magical gate summoned by Grandpa before the Village of Magic was sealed in a barrier. Our family was injured by a mega level beast digimon but Grandpa and some of the villagers pulled back with all the injured before the beast sealed them in a barrier. In effort to free us since I was not in the village I was told to go to a magical portal which the beast was going to use to travel back in time. The beast fears you since your magic weakens his barrier so he tried to use Grandpa's portal to go back in time. Fortunately those efforts weakened his power causing him to degenerate to his champion form and since I was the only one who could reach the gate before it fell apart I took a chance that I could find you before the beast murdered you. I know I'm not strong but maybe there is another way I can help."
LJ began massaging his temple with one hand. Not only did he have a sister in the future but there was some beast from the future who feared his magic so he went back to eliminate him. Just how strong we his magic in the future if it was busting barriers anyway. "LJ, are you okay?" Melody asked interrupting his thoughts.
"Yeah, I guess so." LJ said waving his free hand while still messaging his temple before he said "Let's track this dude down before my headache gets worse. Then maybe Gramps can get both of you back to your proper time."
The sound of crunching leaves followed by cruel laughter was heard by the two of them before an unknown voice said "So you are the threat to my plan to eliminate your clan? It seems in this time you are little more than an inexperienced boy in an adults body. Which makes this all the easier. First you then my power will reign supreme with the magicians trapped in my barrier. As for the girl, she is merely a flee to me." Then the owner of the voice made himself known revealing himself as a MadLeomon.
"Hey!" Melody growled flexing her claws before she said "Not cool."
Before she could bring out her ukulele, LJ stopped her and said "No Melody. Head back to the village and find gramps then tell him of the situation. I'll hold our friend off here."
Though hesitant to leave her older brother alone against a far more experienced opponent, Melody backed up before she turned and fled the ground sparking with magical lightning as she ran. LJ then got into a fighting stance causing MadLeomon to laugh and condescendingly say "You must have a death wish boy. You're lucky I'm not at full strength or I would of vaporized you instead of giving you a chance to run."
"You came back to kill me so what difference does it make if I run from you? You shouldn't underestimate me just because I'm young. Your arrogance will one day become your downfall if you continue your ways." LJ said lacking fear which irritated MadLeomon. "Now. Now. Sounds like you're letting a kid like me get to you." LJ said with a smirk. His plan to keep MadLeomon busy was working according to plan.
MadLeomon leapt at LJ and the Leomon X grabbed hold of the dark lion digimon's wrist and flipped him over his shoulder the enemy from the future landing on his back with a satisfying thud. Surprised at the nerve of LJ, MadLeomon would hold back no longer as he flipped to his feet and threw a sphere of dark energy that coiled around LJ like tentacles causing the Leomon X to tumble backwards to the ground while trying to break free. "Forget it boy. Not even that Leomon father of yours can break free of that attack. A pity really since when I first faced you I faced a cunning warrior but alas.." MadLeomon said as his claws began glowing a sickly green causing LJ's brown eyes to widen in fear. "I would say my neurotoxin is fast but, happily for me, it is not. Your end will be a long and painful one for you but an amusing sight for me." MadLeomon drew his clawed hand back ready to cut into LJ before it was stopped by the cane of a very familiar Jijimon.
"Keep your claws away from my grandson, monster." Theron said then striking MadLeomon in the side of the head with his staff dropping the dark lion like a sack of potatoes effortlessly the tentacles binding LJ disappearing. LJ stood up seeing Melody not far from them.
"Thanks, Gramps." LJ said while breathing a sigh of relief.
"Think nothing of it, LJ." Theron said turning his gaze to Melody before he said "Now about the matter of getting my future granddaughter home along with this pest."
"Wait, you can do that?" LJ asked dumbfounded.
"Of course I can but first to deal with our dark enemy just in case he wakes up before he gets home." Theron said pointing to some curious vines nearby. "Those should do the trick." Then by using his telekinesis MadLeomon was bound by the strong vines. "Melody informed me of everything and I brought the potion we need."
Theron then brought out a vial and poured it on the ground before scampering back with LJ doing the same. "To get the time traveler home all I needed was a sample of either Melody's data or MadLeomon's."
Nothing more had to said regarding the potion as LJ chucked MadLeomon into the portal with Melody running in right behind. After that the portal closed and LJ said "I'll have a sister one day. Imagine that. Makes me wonder how strong I am by the time Melody will be born."
"Who knows, LJ. Time can be a funny thing. Let's head back and have dinner." Theron said as the two headed back to Theron's home. Theron smiled as he knew by reading Melody's mind that LJ would have at least several more siblings including her.
In the future....
Melody looked around before seeing LJ approach her. The Leomon X looked relieved. "Melody, there you are. I was worried when I brought the barrier down and couldn't find you. Then gramps let me in on everything." Melody ran up to her older brother hugging his legs before they returned to the Village of Magic. Upon reaching there one of the warriors were dispatched to take MadLeomon to another town he terrorized for imprisonment.
