The First Prince :: Frozen Beauty

Din could be so overprotective at times. I mean I understand that she was opposed to me associating with this person and her digimon that were single handedly further provoking my digimon, however part of me questioned whether or not this was necessary. Was I going to stop her? No way. I understood Din well enough to know how she felt. It was one thing to be protective and it was another to be insulting, talking shit and all. I simply hope that she did not go overboard in-

The loud yell caused my eyes to shift. That girl is screaming and crying now and I think she was telling at Nayru. I am not sure what she is saying but was she calling Nayru selfish? That is the last thing she was. I knew that Nayru did what she does to help me and I believe Nayru took it the same way. “What I wished for was not to start a fight but to receive a full hearted apology and to use reason to help clean your acts. It appears however that it is beyond you.” The girl is still crying. I almost felt sorry for her however I had to ask myself how old she was. Was it not hypocritical of her to complain of Nayru’s selfishness when she herself is crying when she does not get what she wants? The thoughts swirled in my mind however I simply knew that if this was what my Digimon wanted then I trusted them. They knew more of these things than I. Nevertheless the girl followed up with some make-believe fantasy story about fighting with a real rivalry which I did not understand. No matter I suppose. I could tell that Din did not care for the tamer’s words and Nayru was the only one that acknowledged it. “Are you daft or something?”

“Do not waste your breath.” The war monger stated to show that she was getting along with Nayru. I could hardly believe it and this was further reason I chose not to interfere. I believe some other words were said but I could not make them out, however for one reason or another I doubted that it was helpful to the situation. Perhaps it was due to the current trend of events. “Looks as if they are making a run for it.” I looked down to Farore and I would have questioned her if not for the fact that she likely sniffed out what was happening. Doubt this would bode well for my record in the team thing. “Understandable.” As for my digimon I could not tell what course of action they would likely take. For the most part as long as the others kept hushed and left then I doubt Din would not find it worth chasing them down. Same with Nayru, she was more likely to simply hold a grudge against that one pup. Within moments a piercing howl echoed into the air and my hands immediately shot up to my ears. Nayru was doing things. This is the first time I seen her regard anything with disdain to even use that move in such a manner.

Somehow through the howls I heard another voice telling me to learn to control my digimon. I felt my muscles tense at that moment, my fingers cringing into my palms for form a fist. Now that I took as an insult. Because I let my digimon do what they want and not control them like common slaves I am in the wrong? This is a game and as such this is supposed to be fun not a chore. Above all however my digimon did what they do because that is what they see best for me. I am not going to tell them they are wrong. I bit my lip to stop myself from responding verbally. I could easily guess what was going to happen next. It was almost all too easy. “I have had enough of your bullshit.” Din’s voice roared into the nothingness that was the smog. Instantaneously I saw a bright light shine through the middle of the dark cloud around me. The sight caused me to blink several times to overcome the brightness however as instantaneous as it came it vanished into the shadows. I tried to narrow my line of sight to distinguish what happened when the light subsided; the smoke had subsequently parted at one point as well from a sudden rush of spiraling wind. The touch of my hair brushed on the bare skin of my shoulders from the wind that had spontaneously erupted. I kept my footing mind you however the strength of this gust was powerful, however brief it was. As the cloth of my body settled I glanced upwards and before me was a dark colored fox. My lips parted. That was unexpected.

The look in her eyes were cold and dark, however I felt an enormous passion radiating from them. Not unlike Din. “I will teach your place,” the fox roared, her tails uncurling and flourishing behind it. For one reason or another however her threat did not frighten me. In actuality now that I think of it, this one was standing where Din had stood. Was this her? I pursed my lips. She did not look like how she usually was however her voice… Her fur looked similar but she is suddenly bigger and more fox-like. My eyes glanced downwards to Farore and she did not appear fazed but when was she ever? That was her most common look. Perhaps Nayru will have insight? I searched for Nayru and eventually I found her turning her head as if looking for a trail. I would have said something if not for the large dark blur moving from the corner of my eye that had stricken my voice. I was drawn to the beast and entranced as the tails waved apart in a fan-like appearance. Spheres of pitch black formed at the tips of each tail and had a flickering flame appearance that launched outwards. My heart raced. If anything I was sure that these would cause major burns and I felt my muscles flinch at the sight of it. The fact that none of them were flying to my direction was either due to pure luck or this truly is Din. All or nothing, right? “Din?”

The fox turned. I was caught in her gaze yet as I stared into its eyes I took that as a confirmation that this was in fact Din in her new form. This world of Digimon could be confusing. Nevertheless it was a large weight lifted from my shoulders and a relief to recognize even if I did not completely comprehend. “What are you-” “Get back with Farore. I do not know the extent of my new abilities.” Okay. I felt Farore push against me after that was said and I could hardly believe that Farore was listening to Din’s orders. I will not lie and say that I was not curious but is this necessary? Wait, what was I saying? Why did I care? It helps me and to be frank the girl’s digimon brought it among themselves for insulting and threatening us. Almost serves as a lesson. Regardless I was not going to stop Din now. Farore, I was sure, merely did not wish to be involved in the fight over protecting me and Nayru was being somewhat snippy so would likely be involved with Din. I knew that she did not take well to threats and she could hold a grudge. It made me wonder. Never mind that though. I see that the fireballs were swirling about in some sort of synchronized formation as they diverged to attack all four of the running individuals of that team separately. Two fireballs had attack each opposing digimon each, the sight of which made me more confident in Din’s abilities.

That said the last three remaining fire balls had chased after the crybaby herself. While I hardly believed it was necessary I was in no position to stop Din. Despite this the flames appeared to be attempting to trap the girl in a deadly blast instead of outright chasing her about which was a rather strange sight. In that instant I felt the familiar touch of Nayru pawing at my ankle to lift her up to my arms, my attention momentarily averted due to this. “Not going to join in? You appeared rather upset” Nayru shook her head as I lifted her up. “No need if Din has reached champion before I. I would not be able to teach them more effectively than she could.” Champion? And was she pouting? I poked Nayru’s cheek to affirm my suspicions however she shook her head defiantly at the act. With that a gust rushed passed me and the blurred form of the grey fox faded in her movements. I blinked at the suddenness yet somehow I had known that Din would have acted as fast as she could. I could see her form approaching the girl in top speeds, but I suppose that is to be expected of a four legged fox.

The silence aside from the flickering flames Din produced, the atmosphere was quite ominous. Din had not even produced a growl as she normally would. “I gave you a chance pissant.” The flames on her paws were flaring as well as her tails. I could see it from where I stood. “Now I am going to go over there and very carefully extend my claws” her tail flames are growing “reach into your tamer's chest, and rip out her fucking heart.” The flames mounted into a large force of flames that was shaped as a dragon and flew forward to finish the job, the sight of which would have left me quite unsettled if I was on the other end. With this I would not be shocked if Din burned this whole area to the ground, not that the programmers could not rebuild it anyway. Regardless my grip around Nayru tightened yet Nayru was complacent with this surprisingly considering everything that has happened. “I would not take this to heart Avalyn, she gets what she deserves. The other Leormon we met was not as uncouth as this hussy. I am almost glad that Din got to it first.” Nayru stated as she moved about it my grasp. In this heat along with Din’s attacks I was not surprised.

At the least I could consider this a bonding moment between my digimon if this rendezvous was a failure. Pretty sure that it is aside from Din’s evolution thing. “Din is aiming to end this as she stated, with a finishing blow to kill.” Farore announced her eyes still on Din for the most part. There held a hint of sadness in her voice. Being a passivist I grasped why it was. I am sure that Farore understood Din’s actions as well. Din’s overprotective and volatile personality would have made it quite stunning if she did not react to the other girl and her digimon. “No doubt she would chase them down to accomplish it. We should decide what course of action you will take.” Huh. That. I should follow Din should I not? Nayru nodded in agreement to what Farore stated and I suppose I should make a decision at this point. Or perhaps I shall see how this plays out.
