"And the winner is Noru and Rex, another incredible victory for the Duo! Will anyone end the infamous duo's winning streak-"
Noru turned of the video of last week's match and smiled he had of of his friends record it to see how he looked from from a spectator's point of view and he's got to say he looked damn cool.
"So, what do you think?"
Noru turned to his partner, who could be best described as a yellow cyborg Bakugan dragon, his round metal body looking odd with his large metal wings and arrow shaped head which turned to face the young man and asked.
"Why do you even need to watch this in the first place? You obviously been there."
Rex rolled his eyes as best as a giant cyborg dragon could, then turned to the edge of the virtual cliff side that they were both resting on. The Cyborg lizard then asked another question.
"Besides, Isn't that a more amusing view?"
What the cyborg was pointing out was several players bouncing up and down from the simulated forest from bellow some were amused by their current predicament, most was annoyed by it, and a few were absolutely terrified, which made the hacker feel kinda bad.
"Well, it was, but it's kinda getting old."
The hacker had spent a few days finding the codes to get access past server security while he probably could have just brute forced it with Rex, he didn't want to leave a trace, besides this server was a bit outdated and didn't have Digimon security. Either way he proceeded to create mass chaos with his new found power and changed every thing to hot pink and gave knock back to every object that was collidable, leaving only himself exempt and had Rex fly him up the the cliff to survey his handiwork.
"Yeah, I'm going to call it a day."
Noru decided before pulling up a screen on his digivice and undid the changes letting the people involved finally reach the ground and seeing green once again, he could almost hear someone praising whatever god they believe in that it was finally over. Though before he was going to log off and go do his homework or something, he spotted that he had new mail.
"What is this fanmail?"
The cyborg lizard scoffed, before snarking to his partner.
"As if you would get fanmail, it's probably someone you pissed off, giving a poorly written note basically telling you to end yourself.
The hacker retorted back to his partner.
"Well it's not like you helped much with that, tubbymon."
Rex gave a glare to his partner, but Noru gave no notice and opened the mail. It was always a good sign when the letter started off sketchy. He was more weirded out by the fact that it was trying to confirm that the sender was his friend then the fact that they got his line address hackers did that all the time, so he was kinda desensitized by that, though he should probably create new security protocols.
Well he was sorta right when he said about it being fan mail since it was a bit of an ego booster praising his hacking skills. Though that wasn't really what stood out.
"Jormungundr?"
Rex raised his neck a little at the name. Noru was actually active while they were as well, but he didn't expect them to be back. If it even was the same group. Nobody really knew why they disappeared, being one of the seven mysteries of EDEN, but it flared up Noru's curiosity, while he never was part of a group, this peaked enough interest from him to at least hear them out.
He looked down at the encoded URL and security question of course all suspicious invitations have to have something like this and a threat. The security question wasn't really that big of a problem like the letter said he'd be able to get it and he did, Noru said to his partner.
"Let's get out of here we got a meeting to prepare for."
And with that Hacker and Digimon left the server, Nature's Garden.
Thursday, 4PM: Snake's Throne.
Noru entered the room, with Rex at his heel. He only had one Digimon, but Rex was stronger than the average Digimon as all of his time with training Digimon was given to him, so he was sure they could handle it and it would seem that the others also could put up a fight.
The Woman at the throne was the one who arranged for the meeting and she definitely looked shady enough, though it would also appear that she was a narcissist as well though he did have to say that she had a bit of charm, though the other girl beat her in that department.
Speaking of Fumi, instead of answering any of Manaka's questions, called her an old lady to her face. Which caused Noru to hold back a laugh as Fumi effectively killed the mood in on sentence. Though Rex added to that statement as he made a correction.
"She doesn't seem very old, though creepy is a good word to describe her."
Noru held back another laugh. Even funnier once he realized how much effort she put into all the theatrics and then have one of her guest and a lizard insult her.
