#11 of The Last Renamon
Chapter 11: Moving Forward (part 2)
Salia looked up to the angry renomon, watching his fur slowly changing color as he swung the blade directly for her. She, closed her eyes, waiting for the blow to come, knowing that since her armor was gone, she had no chance of surviving it. She heard the CLANG!! of the blade connecting and winced, but found that the blade had not found a home within her flesh, but rather the dirt in front of her. As her eyes followed up the beautifully intricate blade and saw not a renomon, but a human, her meal, standing there with no signs of the previous battle. He simply watched her coldly.
"You lose. I don't have to kill you to see that. I refuse to kill anyone or anything without justification. And irregardless of whether I pass or fail this ridiculous test, I will never leave Auria," he said calmly with anger in his eyes. He turned on his heel and started walking away.
The Tao looked after the human and smiled. She snapped her fingers, recalling her clothes to her body and teleported in front of the human on one knee so as to be near eye-level with him.
"Please understand," she said, "I was forced to test you in that manner. It is the way that every ceremony must go."
"So what you eat every person?"
"Um...well...no that was just an urge that I felt like trying."
"WHAT?!?!"
"Oh calm down, it's not like I digested you."
"You came damn close!!"
"Oh do shut up or else I will eat you again and I won't let you teleport out!"
"Oh yeah right like you..."
"Yes I did. If I had wanted you to stay for longer I would have but that wasn't within the ceremonial allowances. Eating you alone was borderline rule breaking," she said, "Now let's get you back and find out if your friend passed as well."
With that she again snapped her fingers and suddenly they were back in the main room with the central Tao looking at both of them.
"Salia, if you ever perform ANY ceremony in that fashion again I will see to it that you die for risking another's life for your rediculous urges. HOWEVER," she said forcefully looking over to the right, "Since you did not do this by yourself, you will be forgiven only once."
Zack wondered what the hell she meant by that as she looked over to his left and saw that the other Tao was standing there....with a bulge in her stomach!
'No...' Zack thought, 'Surely...Luke didn't...'
"No, human your friend is fine. He apparently enjoyed it and after successfully passing, requested it. Rather odd human I might add," said Mi'liu (the other Tao).
"Well spit him out so we can get the hell out of here!.....No offense," he added hastily looking towards the head Taomon. To his surprise she just laughed.
"No no it's quite alright. Mi'liu release him! You two may go and be with your mates. Know that you are welcomed within this and all villages and we will look to you for support should the need arise."
"Yes ma'am," Zack said as he heard a loud *BLECH* and suddenly Luke was in a heap on the ground next to him.
"Congratulations! You have passed!" Said all three Taomon in unison.
Unknown to the Tao's or the humans, in a far corner of the room. A pair of red eyes opened and looked on at the humans with disgust. 'Hm so they passed...I know someone who might want to hear about this..."
*****Back at the home of Auria and Reya******
The two girls paced anxiously about the small hut. Tarius watched them from a nearby chair. Back and forth, back and forth, constantly muttering, "What's taking so long?" "Did they fail?" "No they couldn't have" "But what if...?" "Maybe something went wrong..."
"SHUT UP FOR THE LOVE OF THE GODS AND SIT DOWN!!" thundered Tarius. The girls, wide-eyed in fear, quickly sat down and hushed themselves. Tarius was sorry that he had shouted but he was losing his mind. Their constant babbling was never going to end! And truth be told he was wondering what was taking so long as well. He was positive that the humans wouldn't fail especially once he was sure that they were both truly devoted to his daughters. But then where the hell...
Before Tarius could even finish the thought, both Zack and Luke suddenly faded into the room, back-to-back, looking at their respective mates smiling, saying in unison, "We passed!"
Both girls, instantly, were in their mate's arms crying happily and rubbing against them. But then suddenly the girls both caught wind of a peculiar smell. They both backed away and looked at each other and murmured to each other in a small huddle.
The two humans looked at each other perplexedly and then overheard, "...Yeah he does too..." and wondered what they were talking about. Suddenly Auria teleported from the huddle behind Zack, bit his neck firmly saying, "MINE!" and teleported away with him, leaving only Luke, Reya and Tarius there alone. Tarius looked to his remaining daughter and saw a glint of...he smiled.
'Just like her mother, fetish and all' he thought and laughed as he too teleported away.
Luke was beyond confused now as he looked at Reya and saw her looking at him...hungrily.
"Love? Uhm why are you looking at me like that?"
"*Murr* Well that Tao had a taste and I want you for myself now that it's official. I wish you had told me sooner, honey. I've wanted you 'in' me for soo long," she moaned rubbing her furry belly as she stalked over to him, her eyes half-shut.
The human just looked at his mate, and upon grasping what she just said, nearly ran to her and began to kiss her everywhere at once, quickly getting her to moan more and more. He decided to try something new and licked her directly between her breasts, feeling her shiver in pleasure as she "Ooh...Ooohh that feels goooood..." as she grabbed the back of his head and pushed him firmly against her breasts. He enjoyed the incredible warmth and fur of his position but quickly found that he couldn't breathe. He tapped on her shoulder and muffled, "Reffa...I caff breaf..."
Reya, now panting, loosened her hold allowing him to breathe but pulled his head up to her muzzle as she licked his face happily groaning, "Ooooh....Luke honey you taste divine! Ooh I want you now!" and with that she pressed him into a forceful kiss.
'Ok not what I was expecting but still ni...' Luke started to think, his erection already burning, when suddenly Reya opened her mouth wider mid-kiss as she began more suckle more than kiss. He felt her powerful maw pull him deeper into her as her tongue slid out over his face, coating him in warm saliva as she sucked harder. Quickly, she managed to pull his entire head within her mouth as she sealed her lips around his neck and suckled happily on the flesh.
'How is this even possible...' Luke thought, 'She's nowhere near the right size for this to even be possible, much less happening!' but as his head was pushed into the back of her mouth, he looked down into her esophagus and realized it didn't matter how it was happening, because it was going to one way or another, so he decided to enjoy the sensations.
Reya felt some resistance at first, but then upon feeling Luke's surrender, she murred in deep pleasure as she swallowed for the first time, feeling the smooth, slimy muscles of her throat grab her mate and drag him deeper inside her. She loved the feeling. It was like mating, only deeper, and more intimate by the trust that they shared that no harm would come to either of them. She felt his toned body slip deeper into her gullet, filling her in a way that she had never felt. It was a wonderous experience; filling herself with her lover, almost to bursting, and yet still able to take more inside as she feels him struggle only for her pleasure. She made sure to run her tongue over every inch of his flesh as he passed into her gullet and down her throat. She couldn't get enough of the tasty treat.
Luke was now halfway down the warm throat. He could hear his mate's heart beating excitedly and he felt the flesh around him moving down to his final destination when he realized something, 'Where the hell did my clothes...oh forget it...' he sighed happily as he tried to push himself deeper into the soft, pulsing flesh.
Reya giggled at the movement within her as she swallowed again. She ran her tongue all along his warm flesh, tasting every inch before finally reaching his feet. With a finally smile and licking, she gulped happily feeling the bulge travel down her throat, and disappear into her chest. With a few muscle contractions he was forced entirely beyond her sphincter and he curled up in her warm belly. The soft flesh was warm and slimy but for some reason it didn't burn.
'Wait I know that this should be burning a little at least. I mean I haven't activated a skill or anything so... oh forget it I think....*yawn* I'll just enjoy this...'
Reya licked her lips happily as she laid down to enjoy her new weight. She had always wanted to try this and now that she finally had it was incredible! But unfortunately it also took up a tremendous amount of energy so she decided that a little sleep was in order when she felt her bulge quiet down and snore. Just as she laid down, Auria teleported beside her, her stomach also bulging with her smiling as she mumbled, "He was delicious..." she looked sleepily up to Reya, "How was Luke?"
"Everything I wanted," she sighed happily as the two renamon curled together feeling their sleeping mates snore almost in unison. After a final fit of giggling from that, they too succumbed to sleep.
From outside the room, Tarius leaned against a wall, laughing quietly to himself.
'Heh just like their mother...I didn't realize they knew the spells for it though. Well those two will be fine. I suppose I should go gather food for the celebration of their success,' he thought as he leaped towards the forest in search of food. While he could have simply gone into town to purchase what he needed, he thought that a traditional fresh kill meal would be more honorific of their achievement.
****Back once more to Ra'th's Lair****
Ra'th stood looking into the screen. He'd been staring for hours like this. Pyro simply looked on in slight fear as he could feel Ra'th borderlining his anger. The last thing that Pyro wanted to do right now was bother him....when suddenly a light began to blink beside him.
Pyro's eyes widened in the horrible luck as he realized it was an intruder alarm. More specifically a proximity alert pertaining to the lab they were in now.
'Damnit...He's going to kill me especially if I don't tell him....' Pyro thought as he began to speak.
"Silence Pyro. I already know about him," Ra'th said calmly as Pyro immediately shut his mouth in wonder and fear once more. Suddenly on his immediate right, a human faded into view.
He stood average height for a human, about 5'9" and had silver hair. His eyes also red like Ra'th's however with a more collected feeling about them. His clothes resembled that of a biker Pyro had seen, black jacket with a grey shirt and black gloves with (you guessed it) black pants and boots. All in all he didn't seem to be a threat until Pyro's eyes fell on the kitana at his waist... a full-sized blade made of what appeared to be altered metal and obviously sharp enough to cut anything.
'This human has a death wish....' Pyro thought, beginning to hope for a battle between the human and Ra'th just to help calm Ra'th down if nothing else.
"No you idiot he has information. Or rather he had better. Otherwise I have no use for whoever you are," Ra'th said coldly towards the intruder. In truth he had been debating whether or not to kill him when he first came in.
The human only looked at Ra'th and then to Pyro and said quietly, "They passed. And you will not have a better opportunity to destroy them then during the celebratory feast that they will likely have. You have one day."
Ra'th eyed the human quietly. 'Hmm a human whose energy feels like that other human...Zack...but slightly different...and now he offers information...I could use him for now...then I will see where his loyalty lies when he is ordered to deliver the final blow.'
"Hmm...One day then. Fine. Pyro, you know that we will need two more clones of you for this. Get to work you have twenty minutes."
Pyro, more than surprised that he was suddenly given an order, looked at Ra'th incredulously before realizing it and suddenly found himself suspended by a paw around his neck.
"Do you have a problem with my order? William?" he spat out the name, driving it as though a knife among insults.
With a flinch, Pyro responded, "No sir...*cough* I was merely going...to say I only need...*cough* ten,"
Ra'th smiled, "Good boy."
The human eyed them both as Ra'th dropped Pyro and he ran off to make the clones.
"So...with him out of the way, what do I call you?" Ra'th said turning his head to the human.
"Seph"
"Seph huh? Fine but know this, Seph, with this information you've given me you have sworn your allegiance as well. You will kill the human and then you shall rule at my right hand!" Ra'th said as he began to laugh maniacally, all the while, Seph stood there quietly...
*****Back to Tarius*****
Tarius flew through the forest. He had been searching for nearly an hour and had found nothing. From branch to branch he jumped and for a moment thought that he had noticed movement however upon better inspection he found nothing.
'This is odd. The forest is never this empty. Sure I might not be able to find some game but for it to be this bare...' suddenly his eye caught movement again this time behind him to his left.
'So something is following me. Well let's see just how capable a predator it is...worst case I have just found the game I've been looking for,' he thought as he quickly changed direction, moving ninety-degrees to his left; hoping to throw the figure into view.
It worked. The figure flew in front of him, having followed the constant path until then, and it was at this point that Tarius' eyes widened. The thing that had been following him suddenly disappeared. Tarius's eyes searched the darkness for any clue to the figure, however he found nothing.
'Impossible...It looked...like a human...' Tarius thought, 'Hmm the celebration can wait one day. I'll search again tomarrow but for now I need to get back to my family,' he thought as he teleported away.
In his place reappeared Seph. He looked around the area and laughed quietly.
"so even the creatures of the forest can feel my presence so easily," his eyes focused in the direction of the village, "I will fight the other human but if I will kill him...that I will determine later."
*****
Tarius appeared in the doorway to his home to find Zack and Luke talking together outside while his girls were inside. From the sound of it they were gathering a few things for what he couldn't be sure. He stepped towards the humans.
"So what are you two up to?" He asked.
Zack turned his head towards Tarius first, "Oh hey Tarius! Well you remember the guy I told you about? Kitane? Yeah well the girls told me that they knew of a transportation spell so we decided that we'll try to use it to get him here. The girls are inside gathering the stuff we need and then we're going to try it immediately."
Tarius walked to the guys as he replied, "Zack you can just call me...dad...I suppose anyway why are you going to teleport him so soon and without the permission of the elders? You will be in serious trouble if..." he began.
"Oh there's no worry there," Luke spoke up, "We already informed the elders and they approved of it. What's more, they actually helped us to verify that Trione is a true renamon. Turns out the elders had hidden the other renamon. Not to mention of course that there are other villages apparently."
"Well of course," Tarius replied looking at the human laughing a bit, "even young viximon know that."
"But," Zack said raising an eyebrow at that statement, "Auria told me that she was the last renamon."
"Well for this village maybe," Tarius explained, "But even so it wouldn't be a permanent state. After all Taomon are capable of producing offspring from mere data with or without a mate. So yes she is the last renamon...for now but no she isn't the LAST renamon," Tarius said as he began to laugh a bit more.
"HEEEEEY!! WE GOT IT ALL! YOU GUYS READY OUT THERE?" came shouts from inside the hut.
The boys all turned their heads towards the hut as they watched the two rena's carrying armfuls of some sort of rocks and the other carried a book.
"Um...Auria what is all that?" Zack asked.
"Yeah seriously," Luke said.
"For your information boys," said Auria as she set down the rocks, "These are digigrade stone. They harness magical energies and help those like us," she gestured to herself and Reya, "those who aren't very powerful with magic, to focus our energies so that we can perform spells that are normally beyond our capabilities."
"Uhh....oooook. And the book?" Zack asked.
"It holds the teleportation spell we need."
"Soo... you two have never done this before? Is it even safe?" Luke asked a little worried at what might happen.
"Oh of course it's safe hun," Reya said as she began to place the rocks in a circular formation while Auria flipped through the book, "We just don't have the natural capability to transport both a human and his renamon simultaneously from any distance. We're using the stones as a safety in case they are ouside of our range," she smiled as she bent over and flicked her tail to one side giving Luke a full view.
Luke had an immediate reaction and was about to run to his mate when Auria suddenly spoke, "Hey! Reya you know better! We are going to have to stay focused for a bit okay?" she laughed.
With a slight murr of disappointment knowing Auria was right, she covered herself with her tail again and Zack restrained Luke to make sure that he didn't keep going.
It took them about 2 minutes and upon finishing the circle, Auria and Reya stood directly across from each other. They looked at each other and connected their minds in preparation for the spell.
The girls began to chant as the circle began to glow, "Fo saru te nari cho..."
Zack looked at them and the circle, and then began to think about his friend and how cool it was going to be to finally introduce him. After all, Kitane was a halfbreed like himself. Then Zack suddenly phased out reliving a memory of the hall.
******
He walked down the great hall once more and saw a figure that he hadn't seen originally. He walked towards it and noticed that it was in the middle of the area designated for the greatest threats to the renamon. He looked at the carving and saw that the name of the creature...was DarkRenamon. A male renomon that was of black fur and incredible power. He was incredibly cruel and had disappeared a long time ago....
******
Zack phased back from this wondering why the hell that suddenly came back to him when he realized it. Kitane was a halfbreed like him. Except unlike him, Kitane had been fused with another renomon...that called himself Dark. Now he had spoken with both Dark and Kit and found them both to be great guys...but if the carving was true...then...
"WAIT GIRLS I NEED TO....!!!" he tried to shout just as the wind picked up as the girls completed the spell.
"TELEPORT ACTIVATE!"
A flash of light and everyone was knocked back from the force of the spell being unleashed.
Zack covered his eyes as he looked into the circle and saw two figures slowly fading in from the blinding light.
'Well...too late now I guess...'
/End Chapter 11: Alright so I am back in writing business!! ^^ Anyway what's to come...Kitane and Trione are finally here! And what is going on with this Seph guy.....hmm.....And maybe our heroes might try to find other renamon. Why you ask? Don't worry the next chapter will explain it...you hope >:3
Next Chapter 12: Friends and Enemies!
