Digimon Xros Hunters - Awakening Spirits

[Never Soldier B]

Blaze, finally snapped from his funk, could only reply "Huh?" at first.

Then in proper order of operation (and completely heedless of time passed); accepted the tea, "Thank you," gulped it down; snagged a bumpy, blue and orange striped something-fruit, "Oh I really shouldn't," *CHOMP CHOMP* and it was gone; he waved at the spot Crystal was, "Wait that's not right," waves at the spot she is, "Hello!"

And then, in a bit more of an annoyed tone, "That jerk, I was going to take the day off for a vacation. The short of it is, I wasn't even supposed to be in today!"
Blaze dusts himself off and cracks an obscene number of vertebra, "But since I'm here, I think I know how to travel in style. Reload Blimpmon! Hey, clear some space, he's gotta land somewhere!"

Local residents once again scatter from a nearby field because of a flying digimon. At least this one's not shooting.

"All aboard!" comes a voice that resonates throughout the entire airship as it touches down.

Shiro, of course, once Crystal was far enough away from what he judged that he wouldn't be bothered, he stood up straighter, frowning a bit, before looking to Tactimon, as he re-loaded everyone of his digimon, except the Baby II Digimon he had on hand "alright. Tactimon, you're the best taskmaster i know for training, so it's up to you to get them able to evolve at will through their various forms, and if you want me to use Digi-Xros, let me know and i'll oblige in learning new combinations." he then traced a few clones of himself, which was pathetically easy, given he views -himself- as a weapon, so he tossed the Xros Loader to one clone, which went off to follow Tactimon and Team Gen'ei Kitsune deep into the edges of his Reality Marble, where the farthest reaching explosions could be heard. Shiro then turned to his spiritual companions as the clone set up with them "this clone will be with you working on Soul Resonance, using the individual abilities of the Meisters, so on, to the point of mastering how to use you guys seamlessly. also, Soul, i can sense Black Blood in you and Crona, so i will leave it to you two to find out about my black blood, what i can do with it, so on. the clone will be transferring knowledge and memories back to my body, so i will have everything mentally capable, as well as Muscle Memory." he softly took a breath, and let them go on their way, before turning back to the wooden training dummies, completely blocking out everything else in his senses before letting the youki go back along his claws again as he focused, keeping himself in control "Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!" he shouted, proceeding to start clawing into the training dummies, once more working on his youki-related moves and all. his mind instinctively 'speeding up' the Reality Marble's perception of time, though it wouldn't honestly affect Shiro or those within, as their bodies were still connected directly to the true reality's perception of time, so their body ages slowly, yet training inside that kind of area would allow them to learn -lots-. either way, he was only working on it until he could sense Crystal, Airu, and Blaze are too far for his senses to feel, before he worked on the next step of his plan and training.

"Well then, now that you're all settled in... Buckle your seatbelts, Blimpmon, prepare for liftoff!" The titanic airship shuddered for a moment before it ponderously rose from the 'ground' on Ceresmon's back.

"Now let's see," mumbled Blaze as he pulled up a 3-D map on his Xros Loader. "Ah ha! Okay so if we're here, then that means the Castle is this way... Course set, prepare for upload!" Blaze fiddled with a few buttons on the console and a rectangular slot popped open.

"Here we go!" shouted Blaze as he slid his Xros Loader into the port with a *click*.

"Okay, but enough with the theatrics, who wants a drink?" Blaze pulled up a touch screen that was connected to the main console with a heavy-duty wire. "We have beer, sake, wine... who filled my Xros Loader with all this liquor!!!"


*#%*#%*#%*#%*

In an empty, crumbling castle, a lone digimon inspects the areas of the recent battle.

Shiro of course worked quite a while, going through quite a few dummies in the process, once the Blimpmon was far away enough to not be noticed, Shiro had naturally gotten off his training kicks for now, and ended the Reality marble, before recalling Garandoumon to rest and all, and reloaded Mail Birdramon, hopping up onto the wing lightly while sighing "time for us to go ourselves... too bad i never intrigued one of the slashmon's in the area..." he mumbled, lightly checkign his Loader and seeing he had a few Shouto's and even a Hackmon for himself, due to Guilmon, but given how Guilmon befriended a MarineAngemon and all. though he kept himself in the area a bit more discussing where to go with his flying partner and all given he honestly had no clue where a good place devoid of life was, though one addition to his apparel had oddly been a sheathed sword, one that'd be very familar to at least a few people, namely Tessaiga.

Shiro had blinked when he had heard Sanzomon's voice, lightly he looked over to the woman lightly, sweat-dropping "Well... apparently when we found out how to reveal my Origin, we found out it has mutated not to be a single Origin, but a Triplet or Trio Origin, the first two were 'Weapon' and 'Spirit, both workable and with the 'weapon' origin i can safely use my Reality Marble, i just will be cataloging more than just 'swords' in it. right as the third origin was barely revealed to Crystal, the Hourglass kind of unleashed with a huge amount of power, and knocked us flying, but she said she had seen the Origin of 'Grail' within the third and final bulb. hearing that made me freak out given I've heard rumors back where i came from, in various myths, that anytime a Grail appears, it's usually... a corrupt Grail, containing Angra Mainyu, the Root of All Evils in the World." he took a breath as he explained things, slipping off of MailBirdramon for now while sighing "so when i heard she saw that in the final bulb... i freaked out, and freaking out knocked off my balance in meditation and i screamed it physically." of course, he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly as he said that, a bit embarrassed at his own worries, given he had no clue that he would be confronted about his third Origin given he had hoped it wouldn't intrigue people.

Centralized Break... Scene Change, Hatsudo!

of course, back at the castle, Roveth and Jake were currently letting their digimon rest for now, though he did let out all of his others too to train along with Jake, they had been quick to work on various things: evolution, Digi-Xros'es, so on. of course, with Shiro gone it also left a bad taste in Roveth's mouth, mainly because he knew Shiro usually got himself into trouble when he was alone and all.

Gene of course was offering his help to the ones that were training at the castle, as a sparring partner or whatever they needed him for, though he was Crystal's main partner in the Tamers Universe, he was quite independent in how he did things, not to mention the training and sparring helped him get back in shape and not be as rusty against a digital adversary and all.

Shiro had also listened intently, given MailBirdramon for now returned back to the Xros Loader, as he sat on the grass thinking on the story, and the part where she thinks he has been chosen to aid this Graildramon in it's battles to fight the darkness. of course, the main thing he thought was that he would have done just that anyway, given his constant fighting against the like of the Demon Lords, and other digimon that were trying to either destroy it, take it over, so on, Shademon would not be any different, truth be told, as he nodded "i see.. then the Digital World's 'Grail' so to speak, has not been tainted... in this case, i definately feel honored to be chosen like that for a cause i've fought for ever since i became a Chosen Child." he said with a smile, while pondering a bit on things "hmm... maybe i should travel the world as well as train, when i land whoever wants to explore the area they can, and the others wanting to train can stay within the Reality Marble." he thought, tilting a fox-ear curiously and all while his tails sway lazily and all with his idle thinking.

Shiro had glanced to the Baby II form in his lap, chuckling a bit to himself while lightly bringing a hand down to softly pat on the Digimon's head a bit, after instinctively changing it away from the clawed monstrosity and all, while looking to Sanzomon "most of the time when there are myths and legends in the Digital World, they are more than likely true." he said, lightly bringing out his Xros Loader and lightly showing the Legendary Spirits, that the Legendary Warriors revived came from "i kind of know this more than anyone, given i have studied Digital History from various iterations of the Digital World, this is the first time I've heard mention a Graildramon." he began pondering a bit, thinking to himself ~though the fact about the Digi-Gnomes is a definite.. kernel that might might lead to finding Graildramon, keep an eye out for Digi-Gnomes.~ of course he then spoke up on the idea "doesn't that mean then that an easy way to find Graildramon would be to watch out for Digi-Gnomes in a larger amount than normal in that area?"

"Thank you for flying Parallax Air, we hope you enjoyed your flight. Please remember any luggage and carry on items. And as a special note to any stowaways, the big red button opens the rear hatch. Have a nice day!" Blaze set down the very in unnecessary intercom and grinned.
