The player known as GrimPhantasm trudged through the dark, cold mine, looking for any digimon unfortunate enough to cross his path. As he walked, he constantly ignored his new partner's constant shivering, except to give him an occasional tongue lashing for being so weak. While on the outside, he was distant and as cold to his partner as the freezing mine itself, he really was happy that Gaossmon was his partner. If he could strengthen his partner, he could certainly strengthen himself, and that's what this adventure was all about.

"Well, this little excursion is going nowhere fast" sighed the young tamer, who was more than ready for some excitement.

Deciding to hopefully draw somebody or something's attention, he called out, "Hey! What are you losers doing hiding in this cave!? Come get some!"

His digimon simply snorted in surprise, then seemed to smirk in anticipation. 'He does seem eager to please, although I wonder if he'll ever talk' thought the tamer, letting his mind wonder before preparing himself for any reply.

the only sound was the patter of feet against the stone, and sometimes the sound of feet against the steel tracks littered through the mines interior. the dark and bleakness of the mines matched her mood, ruki was absolutely livid. she shouldn't have been surprised that others vyed for the top position, but to put that on the message boards.

ruki wasn't impressed.

only few options presented itself to deal with the wannbes: keep talking or action. action such as beating them in a match. renamon should be far stronger then their puny digimon. opening her mouth to speak this to renamon, a voice hit the air and caused ruki to scowl. following the voices sound, she found her target and narrowed her eyes.

"it's a mine not a cave, genius."

a roll of her eyes was next as she waited for him to speak. she wasn't afraid of him, nor his digimon.

GrimP looked behind him as he heard the females voice. Glaring at her with disinterest, he simply scoffed, "Tch, whatever"

In all honesty, he was surprised to find another tamer in this place, especially one as pretty as her (although he quickly scolded himself mentally for thinking that last part). However, as arogant as she seemed, he really wasn't in the mood to put her in her place today.

"Listen, I didn't come here to fight another wannabe, we're here for some intensive training, so stay out of my way and we'll be fine" he stated as he began to walk away from the girl.

[lupo]

ruki arched an eye as he spoke, resisting the urge to put him in his place. now wasn't the time to tell him she had been playing longer, that she was also staff and that she doubted he had an evolution yet. "bronze tamer, game moderator." ruki pointed at herself. "suffice to say i am not the wannabe."

let's see how he handled that one!

as much as she was tempted now, to have renamon armor digivolve, she figured to leave that for if this so called tamer still thought of her as a wannabe. "you'll need all the training you can get." needless to say, ruki hadn't quite lost her scathing nature. but being called a wannabe, and being walked away from, rankled her.

renamon simply stayed by her tamers side, ready to do whatever ruki asked her to do.

Hiro mentally scoffed at the girl's declaration of status.

"Sure, you have the experience, but I have destiny on my side, now leave me alone before I send you back to the nearest town"

As he continued to walk down the mine however, he saw something shine in the distance. Soon the sound of metal shifting and gears grinding could be heard as the object came closer, and soon it was obvious that something else had heard the tamers. The Mechanorimon came into full view, clearly not happy with there being intruders in its mine. It looked at the two, as if deciding which one to attack first, before holding an arm up at Hiro and shouting, "Twinkle Beam!"

Hiro and Gaossmon barely had time to jump out of the way of the wild digimon's attack, which struck the side of the mine, taking a huge chunk out of it. Hiro, despite his cruel exterior, wasn't a bad guy, and felt a tinge of concern for the other tamer. Standing up and dusting himself off, he barked at the girl, "Get out of here, Gaossmon and I have got this handled".

[lupo]

"that destiny is mine." ruki held back from sneering though it was difficult. "renamon and i can easily destroy you." she wasn't about to leave. the mine wasn't his alone, and she had a right to be in there just like he had.

sounds of another digimon reverberted in the mine, and as renamon glared at the oncoming digimon, the creature came into view allowing ruki to scan her red colored digivice to see what they were dealing with. "mechanorimon, adult level digimon. virus attribute. well well," ruki glanced back up towards the metal digimon as it aimed an attack towards the male tamer.

the beam attack missed the pair and hit the wall instead. throwing up an arm over her face, keeping the dust and stone clear from her eyes, ruki clicked her tongue. "it's an adult. and i'm guessing you have no techs or evos. you'll be digi-food. renamon!" the yellow vulpine darted forth, lights spinning across hands and feet before they erupted into pearly blue flames. "power paw!" a flurry of punches and kicks were aimed towards the metal monster.

soon ruki would get the fox to digivolve. but not yet. now wasn't the time.

[hermeskun]

"Gaossmon doesn't need techs or evolutions to handle this fool, or you either, for that matter", was all Hiro could say as he got back up, dusting himself off.

Mechanorimon looked at his foes, seemingly dissapointed that they weren't vapor, and was about to unleash another attack on them when Renamon launched her assault. The slow, clunky machine digimon had no way to avoid the fox digimon's flurry of attacks, and was knocked back by the assault, but showing minor damage. Mechanorimon then replied by raising its arm to the fox digimon, again shouting "Twinkle Beam!" before launching a blast at her.

[lupo]

as much as she would love to back off and let the adult level digimon slaughter the male tamer's digimon, ruki did not back down, or back away, from a fight. "keep saying it and maybe it'll come true!" ruki's words were delivered sarcastically but she admired his spirit. she had been the same back when she first began. and while one could beat another without techs or evos, sometime's that was all that stood in the way of victory or defeat.

"some digimon you can get away without using techs or evos." she granted him. but not all digimon were like that. he could learn the hard way for all she cared. renamon had slightly damaged the beast, scorching black marks upon the shiny metal was evident. it wasn't enough, both ruki and renamon knew that. "you're too slow." renamon winked at the digimon and darted around the mechanorimon, standing with her arms crossed. the mechanorimon followed renamon as she darted around it, but the attack had ended by the time it was facing the fox.

"diamond storm!" renamon called, leaping into the air as the shards were sent spinning towards the mechanical creature. mechanorimon sent its own attack a few seconds later. "gyro break!" it called out as renamon's eyes widened. the attack was like a corkscrew punch, power equivalent to that of a mechanical explosion. at full power! in the small space of the mine that was deadly. renamon could only hope to dart back but the force of the punch sent her careening into the rock wall with a resounding thud. "renamon get up!" ruki hissed. while she was worried for her partner, she was not about to lose to this adult digimon and look weak in front of another tamer.

[hermeskun]

Hiro was frustrated and scared. Not scared of dying, he and his partner would be destroyed in game as many times as necessary to become kings. However, he was terrified of not being able to do anything to impress the other tamer. As he watched the fox digimon get suffer a pretty hard punch, he tried to think of ways to help. He quickly began to analyse the digimon, trying to see any visible weakpoints. Then he noticed something, they weren't on vital areas, but they would do.

"Gaossmon, go for the unarmored part of his arm!"

At his master's command, Gaossmon leapt at the machine digimon, chomping down hard on the exposed wires of its right arm. Letting out a mechanical squeal of pain, the digimon began to frantically wave its arm around to get the tiny dino off.

Hiro scoffed at the sight, glancing over to the girl and her currently fallen partner.

"Tch, as much as I hate to admit it, you may be right on this one. Your fox had better get up quickly, I'm not sure how long this will keep him distracted, and she seems to be this fights V.I.P".

[lupo]

renamon felt dizzy, having hit her furry head upon the rocky surface, yet she still pushed herself up and away from the wall so she wouldn't let her tamer down. the force of that punch was brutal, knowing never to get in close range for that attack to be even more effective.

"diamond storm!" renamon sent another wave of the pearly diamonds towards the metal monster, careful to aim the attack where the shards wouldn't catch their ally digimon, who was gnawing at the wires connecting the mechanorimon's hand to its arm.

"of course i'm right. i've been doing this for a long time." ruki clicked her tongue, expression hard before it softened somewhat. "you can always prove me wrong." it was meant to be encouraging, but the lone wolf was awkward in that department. "if we can't get him down soon, renamon will need to armor digivolve. that should give us more power on our side."

renamon had landed after the diamond storm, light upon her feet she darted close to him, ducking underneath his right arm whenever it swung overhead, and sent another power paw attack. blue flames skimmed across the metal, leaving another round of scorch marks in its wake.

mechanorimon howled at both the bite and the flurry of attacks, using its left arm to swing, hoping to either catch renamon or the gaossmon. either one would do for that was one less attacker for the time being.
