[Video // Second Transformation]

[For all you night owls out there, Vanguard decides that now (just five minutes past midnight in an abandoned house at the edge of HospiTown) is the perfect time to voice his displeasure.:]

As you are all my witness, there is nothing here, there's no such things as ghosts, and if this rickety old house comes crashing down on our heads, it's Bumblebee's fault.

[Bumblebee shines his flashlight back at Vanguard and the D-terminal with an amused smile, Vanguard gives an indignant scoff.]

I'm not scared. I'm annoyed


[Bumblebee laughs silently, patting Vanguard as he moves past. Vanguard murmurs irately and paws his impeccably groomed mane back into place. Ghosts may not exist, but Digimon ghost types certainly exist. Even the small ones are a pain to deal with, dispatched with a good fireball. But the higher level ones? Best to stay away from those altogether.]

Can we just go now?

[Bee sighs. Fine, they can head home, if that's what he wants. Of course, that's when the camera catches a glimpse of something: moonlight pouring in from a window flickers on the wall behind him, like a shadow dashing across the light. Floorboards in the distance give off a terrible groan, wood creaking under something's weight. The orb of light from Bumblebee's flashlight creeps down the long, dark corridor. The beam hardly penetrates the stifling darkness to reveal a room at the end of the hallway, its door half fallen off its hinges.]

[The D-terminal's camera starts to shake from unsteady hands. And as camera focuses, two slivers of light stare back at them. Soft mumbling carries down the hallway as the D-terminal's shaking intensifies.]

[Bumblebee, stricken more with curiosity and wariness than fear, takes a tentative step forward. Bewildered, Vanguard snatches Bumblebee's sleeve]


What're you doing-!?

[As if in response to the noise, the two slivers of eyes disappear into the dark. A voice that is neither Bumblebee's nor Vanguard's hisses vehemently right next to the D-terminal:]

-can't take it from me!

[The inhuman noise that comes from Vanguard is so panicked and high pitched, it's practically comical. His flailing knocks the flashlight from Bee's hand, and the D-Terminal goes sailing with it. Both hit the ground with a clatter.]

[The last thing the feed picks up is the sound of rapid footsteps in the dark. The feed cuts.]
darkened: (Rep was here. Riku's a loser.)

All talk? All talk?!

[Blue fire spews out of Gabumon's mouth, and he slams one of his feet down on the floor.]

That's it! We're going there now, Riku!

[Normally, he'd correct him, but darn it, this is just too tempting. So, rather than fuss, the Replica flings his shoulders back, tips his chin up, and grins.]

You heard him. Just tell us where to go, and we'll be there.
darkened: (Smile)

[When the Replica responds, he's well on his way towards the spooky house. With his D-Terminal firmly in his grip, only his upper body appears on screen, though Bee may overhear some mutterings from his two partners.]

And here I thought I was the only one. You should see what I've gotta put up with from Gabumon on a regular basis.

[He says this quietly, so not to draw attention from a certain loudmouth lizard.]

So, is the house really that spooky? Kind of hard to believe when the rest of this place is so calm. Almost too calm.

[In fact, once the house slips into his line of sight, he has to stop and give it a once over. Nothing sticks out just yet-- if anything, it seems tinier than Vanguard made it out to be. Odd...]
darkened: The one icon that's a Riku cap. (Are you nuts?)

video - excellent :) How far would you say Bee and Vanguard are?

[personal profile] darkened 2014-02-02 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait, you mean they've actually got movies here? This I've gotta see.

[He stops, having finally reached the start of that dirt path. His eyes scan the terrain, and he winces at the sight of the shriveled up trees. Way to create an eerie atmosphere... It's like one of those haunted houses they show in Halloween flicks. Tentatively, he reaches for the doorknob, and when the door creaks, he blurts out a short laugh.]

So, does this place have cobwebs? Creepy paintings with moving eyes?

[Whatever awaits, he'll slip into the dark, letting the door slam shut.]
darkened: (Contemplative)

[It takes a few moments for the Replica's eyes to adjust to the dark, during which he squints, places a hand just above his eyes, and creeps further into the foyer. His Digimon toddle close behind, Kotemon shivering at the sound of the creak.

The Replica freezes, gaze snapping towards the door. He clamps his jaw shut at the sight of the hands, and his hand grabs at the nearest doorknob. This is getting weird...

While he figures his way towards them, he'll stop just long enough to reply.]


Yeah, I'm here, and I think I've got company.

H-heh, no way! That was totally just my-- I mean your imagination, Riku. [Gabumon puffs out his chest and grins.] Ghosts, phantoms, all that stuff's fake. There's nothing to worry about.

You do realize that you probably jinxed us, right?

[Silly fuzzball... Well, it's not like they've got much else to lose.]
darkened: (surprised)

Hey, you still there?

[The Replica's breath hitches, and he shakes his terminal, as if somehow that'll fix the feed. Maybe it's just a glitch on his end.

Then the door slams, and both Gabumon and Kotemon promptly jump at each other, temporarily forgetting their bitter feelings. Now, the Replica's not the sort to admit to fear, but even he can't ignore the shiver trailing down his spine. Once the door slams, he picks up the pace, jogging towards the sound of the door.

He stops only once to gaze back at his partners.]


C'mon, guys! I think there's something back there.
darkened: (surprised)

action-- also, want me to tag our other thread back soon?

[It's a good thing Rep has fast reflexes. Once he spots the Bakemon, he tumbles to the side and out of Vanguard and Bee's path. Kotemon isn't so lucky, as the ghost makes her jump back several feet, roll back onto her rump, and then trip over her floppy sleeves once she tries running towards her partner.

And Gabumon? He's too busy laughing his ass off to notice the incoming traffic, leaving him as one fuzzy roadblock.

Better be careful!]
darkened: (yeah well you suck)

[Rep's eyes whizz after Bee, and he whistles as he flies over Gabumon and continues along unscathed.

...and then Vanguard comes crashing down, knocking Gabumon clear off his feet. Feeling the weight of a furry cannonball, Gabumon roars, flailing his arms in an attempt to push Vanguard off. Spotting the struggle, Kotemon scampers over to them, trying to reach for Vanguard's wrist so she can help him to his feet.

The whole time, Rep's gaze shifts from the Digimon to the hall...]


Okay, maybe we should hurry up. That thing can't be too far.
darkened: (Rep was here. Riku's a loser.)

action - A FRIENDSHIP BUILT ON FIRE AND STUPIDITY... because Gabumon's a butt.

[personal profile] darkened 2014-02-12 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
U-um, maybe we should--

[Kotemon looks back at her partner, covering the lower part of her mouth with a sleeve. Gabumon, to not be shown up by a fiery fuzzball, grits his teeth and charges as fast as his stubby legs can take him.]

Betcha I can catch 'em first!

And who's the one with the long legs around here?

[On cue, Rep brushes past his partner, sprinting straight towards the hallway. If anyone's got a chance of catching up, clearly it's the guy who's not a cute, cuddly critter.]
