Ayame's Chronicles- Training time
#4 of Ayame's Chronicles
The next morning, Takami awoke first. He glanced at his clock as it read 8:54 am. Then he sat up and took a deep breath while opening the window next to his bed. 'Ah, the first of many summer Saturdays. I love the smell of Saturday in the morning. But... not as much as the smell of a Saturday afternoon...' Takami took Viximon off his stomach and placed her gently on his pillow as he got up.
After Takami went through his little morning routine, he went downstairs and started making waffles and bacon. Back upstairs, Viximon was still asleep, but her nose picked up on the scent of something being made and started sniffing. The rest of her body slowly woke up after her nose. She jumped off the pillow, nearly stumbling off as her left back leg nearly sunk into it. 'Glad no one was here to see that...' she thought with a sweat drop before hopping downstairs to the kitchen.
Takami was taking the last waffle off the waffle iron and placing it on a plate before spotting Viximon staring at the plate of waffles. Takami smirked after taking the bacon out of the microwave and said, "Someone's hungry."
Viximon jumped up to his shoulder. "What's all this?!" She was staring down hungrily at the pancakes and bacon. 'This world is full of surprises!'
Takami set two plates down then poured syrup over the waffles and sat down at the table, followed by Viximon hopping on the table. She began eagerly sniffing and nibbling the waffles before eating eagerly.
Time skip to after waffle genocide-
Viximon lay happily on her back, contently full. Takami just put the last plate away into his cabinet after drying it. Then sat down and poked Viximon's stomach, which made her squeak in surprise and flail her legs, trying to get up. Takami laughed, "Glad you enjoyed breakfast. Now what shall we do for the rest of the day?" Viximon opened her mouth to say something. "And don't say eat." Viximon returned her mouth to the closed position.
Viximon then shrugged. "Then how bout we go and train then, o' fox of 1000 stomachs?"
Viximon giggled slightly. "Was that some attempt to be funny?"
"Apparently it worked. So I was thinking we could start training some of your battle abilities. I mean you are a Digimon after all."
Viximon sat down and started thinking. "Well I do have this one move I could use, but I have to warn you: I've had no practice."
Takami got an excited face. "Alright! First day of training!" He then slowly looks down. "Come to think of it... I should put on some clothes first..." After running upstairs and coming back down wearing a dark blue t-shirt and jeans. His shirt had the icon of a Digi-vice wrapped in a silver aura. Viximon stared at the shirt.
"Where'd you get that shirt from? It's very interesting."
"You remember Suri from yesterday right? She made it for me. Suri's quite the artist ya know!"
Viximon blinked at the comment. "Does this Suri like Digimon as well?
Takami looked up and thought, "Well she certainly doesn't hate it, probably still do. Suri, Rua and I used to love it. I just so happened to keep interest in it."
Viximon nodded then leapt off the table and wandered around until she found the door. "Well let's get to training!"
Takami nodded then got his bag and Viximon hopped in. Then he thought of possible secluded training locations.
After twenty minutes of walking through the cool summer morning, Takami arrived at the entrance of an old scrap yard. The city didn't bother fencing it up since it wasn't really noticeable to the public. He took Viximon out of his bag and placed her gently on the ground next to him.
Viximon looked around at the new surroundings and tilted her head. "How come you picked this place?" Takami then smiled.
"No one comes here anymore and this was a place meant for things to be broken even more. Now what exactly can you do in terms of combat?"
Viximon got a proud look on her face. "First of all I can use these fangs of mine to give you a pretty mean bite!" Takami sweat-dropped.
"Is that all?"
Viximon arched an eye. "Something wrong with biting? I could snap a human's leg in 2, provided I wanted to."
"Okay I take that statement back. Anything else?"
Viximon said nothing but rose to her feet and started walking towards Takami. "Uh, Viximon? What are you do-"
Viximon then yelled, "Poison Shard!" and opened her mouth wide. In a split second, Takami caught a glimpse of a sharp looking projectile forming in front of her mouth. But the crystal was cloaked in a purple-ish aura of unknown substance. Before Viximon fired, Takami moved out of the way. Viximon fired her attack at a car that was behind Takami, to the left of him. The purple-ish aura came in contact with the car first. Takami's eyes widened after watching the effect of the aura. 'The car... is melting?! Just from that purple stuff?' The shard itself then split the top of the car in half, causing sparks to fly out. When one of the sparks came in contact with the purple aura, it ignited and caused an explosion.
The only remains of the car after the explosion was the rusty (now torched) frame of which only held half a car along with four flat tires. Takami was speechless and stared at the car before Viximon spoke up. "Poison shard, a convenient little attack of mine. The purple stuff you saw around it was a highly corrosive chemical I can form in my mouth. And the shard came from the minerals around me and concentrated into a shard projectile covered with my poison. If the poison doesn't get you, the shard will, as it is formed with enough pressure to make what you humans call a diamond. The explosion is just a bonus; it turns out that my poison is highly flammable, so sparks or heat made it even more useful. Is that enough for you?" Viximon turned to Takami with a victorious smirk.
Takami sprang up and started flailing is arms in an anime-like fashion. "THAT WAS AWESOME!!! I'VE NEVER SEEN A DIGIMON'S ATTACK UP CLOSE BEFORE!!!!!"
Viximon sweat-dropped at his reaction. "Um, Takami?" Takami then stops and clears his throat to regain his composure.
"Sorry about that. But that was very impressive. You're still at an In-Training level, but already are quite strong!" Viximon giggled at his comment, enjoying the praise on her skills.
"Thank you, but I can get even stronger if I just practice it more. Didn't have a lot of space when I was in that garden place at your school."
Takami nodded. "That's why we came here! Now let's see it again, but this time work on your aim a little more... Don't want to be caught in the cross fire ya know?"
Viximon smirked, "You thought I was actually going to hit you? My marksmanship is top-notch, so you won't get hit... unless you're my target."
Takami felt a little uneasy at her mind games before speaking up. "Sorry I ever doubted you."
Viximon smiled at him, then jumped on his shoulder to lick his cheek. "It's okay. Remember to have faith in Digimon. That's how we surpass others in battle, from the faith of our human partners."
Takami nodded but then looked a little confused. "I thought you said that you made that poison stuff in your mouth. How come I'm not melting or something?"
Viximon giggled again before leaping off his shoulder onto the ground. "I only make it when I either bite an opponent or use that attack. Otherwise it's just a normal Viximon mouth." She opens her mouth for emphasis.
Takami smiled and then said, "Back to training for us then!"
