Renamon chuckled, and as the group finished their luxury dinner, they began making their way towards the cabins. As it turned out, teach cabin had two doors: one opening up to the outside, and the other opening onto a hallway at the center of the second deck that led to the dining hall. Each cabin was virtually identical to the last, with a small round window, two beds with lockers at the foot of them, a security safe and a landscape painting. For reasons of privacy, Malie chose to sleep alone with Kukuimon, and from there, the others decided pairing tamer with their digimon for cabinmates being the best way forward.
But as the group said their goodnights and took their keys from respective Kamemon, a king brooded with a witch. Deep within the domain of the Mo'omon, he sat cross-legged before a large, wall-mounted monitor. The light of the green sigil emblazoned across the screen glinted against the scales of its powerful, scarred body, alongside a bandolier made from digivices.
"++My sources tell me not one but three humans have managed to escape you, Varamon++" said a masked voice.
"++Since when did the Dragon of Waihona become so easily thwarted?++""Since when does the Green Lady question my methods," mused the digimon.
"Keiki kanaka make for poor sport, and my tribe has grown bored hunting them, even with the challenge of restraining their lust for blood.""++Are you unsatisfied with our bargain? Last we spoke, you seemed more than happy to take what was offered++""Indeed I was, and indeed I still am. But, now I hear that there are others within my territory also in search of humans. It makes one wonder if you intend to cheat me of my prize.""++Varamon, I am hurt. You believe I would go behind your back? And I thought you better than that++""Then you don't mind if I slay any such competition? I have your permission to execute would-be poachers?""++As long as you bring me the humans alive and unspoiled, you may do as you please++"The figure grinned, wicked gray fangs glistening in the dark.
"No ka 'oi," he breathed.
"Then it's time I made contact with some friends along the river..."CHAPTER COMPLETED
