Training, although she and Kuro had always trained by means of real battles in the past, the tournament had been the first time she started practicing with exercises, and this time she went a step further, undergoing the training program of a legend like a member of the Seven was quite a honor, and also it was placing quite some pressure upon her shoulders. It told Reikiko that her new master had expectations of her, and she certainly wasn't planning to disappoint him in any way. Standing within the combat simulation room Reikiko idly looked around the landscape the room had transformed into: a war-zone. Taking a step forwards Reikiko suddenly felt her foot bump against something, the lowering of her gaze revealing a lifeless body that was holding a rifle had been laying before her.
A gulp followed as she steeled her resolve, she knew what this scenario was, in the end according to what she had been told this simulation would manifest her own thoughts into a solid hologram, perfect for training. Still to think that her imagination had led to a battlefield, it idly made her wonder about the macaber thoughts that she was starting to have lately.
"I guess we should search for our enemies, shouldn't we Aneki?"
Kuro's voice was as soft as ever, and soon the Blackagumon wandered forwards, ignoring the sea of corpses that spread out before him. It was slightly unsettling how used Kuro was to scenery like this, but equally unsettling was how quickly she had recovered from it, her steps light as she walked amidst the corpses to search for the source of this disaster. She could see various outfits on the fallen soldiers, some of them carried the emblem of the Shin Sekai, others were wearing the DATS uniform and two unfamiliar garbs were among them.
Still, when finally a silhouette appeared in the distance, accompanied by two Renamon Reikiko knew how late it was, hand grasping into the shadows for her digivice, and while Kuro nodded his head firmly the familiar metamorphosis unfolded before her eyes. Although the figure was cloaked, she knew all too well who it was, and her Metal Greymon seemed mildly agitated by the sight. The two Renamon evolved before their eyes, a Weregarurumon and a Taomon emerging, and soon they darted forwards to engage into the battle.
Of course she had expected this confrontation, and with them still on a long distance Kuro made the opening move by launching a volley of missiles at them, the Taomon sweeping a hand to conjure a barrier to block the missiles before the barrier scattered, making the Weregarurumon dart forwards and leap into the air, swinging his leg downwards for a violent kick that Kuro narrowly deflected with his clawed arm, forcing his opponent to flip backwards as they prepared for the next clash.
It wouldn't take much longer before Adam himself reached the battlefield, but unlike before he was not unarmed, a sword of some sorts being unsheathed and with a swift sweep at Reikiko forced the girl to leap backwards, growling in annoyance. If that sword had hit her tentacles she might had been in more troubles than last time.
Still, Kuro seemed to had his fair share of troubles, less because of a lack of power, but more because Adam's twins were finally cooperating, a tactic that seemed to be working well so far. Still, the Taomon had launched some sort of talisman into the air, one that exploded into a sea of projectiles that rained down upon Kuro, making him growl in anger and pain while at the same time slowly opening the metal plate on his chest, the missile that was launched heading straight toward the Were Garurumon that was lunging at him.
The detonation that followed had come with such a violent gust of wind that Reikiko was briefly set off balance, causing Adam to have the opportunity he needed to lash forwards, sword sweeping through the air, an attempt to deflect it with one of her tendrils leading to a dire consequence as the girl felt the blade slice through the tendril, soon following up with a forceful grapple as she was pinned down, sword clearly raised up into the air in an attempt to pierce the Shademon's main body.
"STOP IT!"
A scream followed, one that made Reikiko suddenly wake up within the bed of the medical ward, gasping for air as she tried to recall what had happened. Was it merely a dream? When she tried to recall the event, she did remember that she had been training with her new master earlier, perhaps she had fainted from exhaustion after all the training? Then what she had experienced might had all just been a dream? A long sigh followed as she shook her head, but for some reason she noticed there was something different about Kuro.
The black raptor was quietly seated at the edge of the bed beside her, eyes cast outside the window as she heard him muse softly.
"Are you happy Aneki?"
The question came unexpected, to the point Reikiko remained silent for a moment when finally she raised a hand to gently rub the raptor's head.
"I am Kuro~ Because I have you by my side, and the power to make my dreams become a reality, why would I not be happy?"
Kuro seemed to pause for a moment, when finally he replied in a slightly worried tone.
"Because that brat and his twins keep on plaguing your mind."
Yes, the boy known as Adam Jackson would need to be dealt with, at least if she wanted to become freed from the constant plague that his 'attempts' to save her had become. Closing her eyes briefly the girl shook her head before replying in a curt tone.
"Nothing to worry about Kuro, we will deal with him soon. There is a limit to my patience, and the fact he seems to believe that killing me stands equal to saving me... it's time we 'save' him instead..."
