Episode Three: Beneath the Deep

Taiyo goes to check the other two doors. One opens up to an empty closet while the other to a fairly normal looking bedroom complete with bed, end table, and a three drawer dresser. Apparently whoever lived in the house either didn't get around to decorating the room or just didn't as the walls are bare.

===================================

Azuma stands in a circle of statues carved from a black stone, each standing on a pedestal. Something appears to have been on the pedestal at one point, a plaque or something of the sort, but the breeze from the sea and time wore it away, but for whatever reason the statues themselves remain untouched.

He looks at each, taking note of the animal each resembles, horse, rooster, rat, rabbit, dog, tiger, and six more each one representing a Zodiac.

Outside of the ring, black vaguely aquatic creatures with large yellow eyes gawk at him. No one looks identical, their movements spastic and uncoordinated. They make no attempt at entering the ring, instead resolving to circle it, trapping him inside of it.

Creature: "God...awakens."

*Eve sits up*

<Are you alright?>

*No answer.*
========================
"Well at least there are no swimsuits to stare me down all night."

*She walks in as Aroma takes the Digimon downstairs to look in the fridge & cupboards.*

Taiyo takes a look inside the dresser. The first two drawers are empty then she opens the last one.

Taiyo: "Can't stare you down from inside a drawer. Some of these are cuter than mine."

===================================

The cupboards contain boxes of something labled DigiNoir while the fridge contains meat. Just a piece of meat with a bone in the center.

*Eve crawls over the bed to stare down at Roatha*

<Roatha?>

*She shakes his shoulder*

*Still no answer.*
=====================
*Guilmon sniffs it to see if it's any good.*
=====================
"That statement both arouses & horrifies me."

Taiyo: "This one with hearts is so much cuter than-"

She lifts up the front of her shirt showing her bikini top.

Taiyo: "White tiger print."

She looks to the drawer and back to Euryale, closing the distamce betweem the two.

Taiyo: "And I bet any one of those would look better on you than in any drawer."

===================================

It seems all right.

*Eve shakes his shoulder harder, looking worried*

*Euryale looks at her warily, biting her lip.*

"Well...if one of them is my size, then maybe...."
===========================
*Roatha jerks awake.*

"What! What! What!?"
===========================
*He nods, so Aroma goes over to see if she can turn the oven on.*

Taiyo takes Euryale's hands and leads her to the open drawer.

Taiyo: "A top might be difficult. Not that I've stared at your chest, except for when I have, but umm...I bet this heart one would look great on you."

===================================

She can hear the hissing of gas, but there's no flame. The pilot light must be out.

Renamon comes into the kitchen.

<You fell out of bed and didn't answer me. I got worried.>

*She crawls back over to her side of the bed*

*He climbs back up.*

"Yeah, that's 'cause I was sleeping."
========================
"Oh, Renamon, do you want something to eat? I just have to light the pilot light."

*She pulls out her lighter & then sets off to do that.*
========================
"I wouldn't worry about it too much. You're the kind of person that I want to get that kind of attention from."

*She holds it up.*

"Well, it's not really my style, but...for you...."

*She starts pulling off her sweatshirt.*

Taiyo: "Wow, you have terrific abs."

===================================

When she lights it, a big ol' flame erupts around her hand. Renamon who was about to grab a thing of DigiNoir stops to see if Aroma's all right.

*Eve bites her lip, then lays back down*

<Sorry.>

*Aroma yelps & falls on her ass, clutching her hand. She breathes several sighs of relief as Guilmon & Dorumon start sniffing her.*

"It's...I'm...okay...."
=========================
"Yeah, yeah."
=========================
"Thanks."

*In spite of saying that, she looks conflicted-to-disappointed. She reaches behind her to start taking off her bra.*

Taiyo: "Sorry. It's just...I really like abs."

Taiyo looks Euryale up and down, biting her lip.

Taiyo: "Although your body as a whole is great. Great abs, terrific breasts, you're...you're perfect."

She sits down on the bed, feeling fairly weak in the knees.

Taiyo: "That mark is pretty cool too."

===================================

She holds a hand out to Aroma to help her up.

*Eve stares up at the ceiling*

<(I was worried...)>

*Aroma takes her hand & pushes herself up, blushing a bit.*

"Thank you...so, what would you like to eat?"
=====================
*Euryale smiles more openly.*

"No one's perfect, but I'm glad to hear that. Except I don't really want to talk about this."

*She points to her mark.*

"It sickens me that I was just...branded like someone's property. It's not me. And it's not something I worked for, like these."

*She runs the fingers of her left hand along her abdominals.*
=====================
"You know, there are ways to check for breathing."

Taiyo rubs her legs together, sporting a raging girl boner.

Taiyo: "It's supposed to mean Courage, right? I think that suits you just fine."

===================================

Renamon: "DigiNoir."

<I...suppose.>

*Eve closes her eyes, but doesn't fall asleep*

"Oh, I saw that on the cans. What is it?"
==========================
"Yeah, but I still don't like it."

*She finally puts the new top on, feeling how tight it is & shaking her chest a bit to see if it will stay.*

It stays. Taiyo is possibly about to bite through her lip at this point.

===================================

Renamon: "It's difficult to explain. It grows on trees, the container it's in and all although only its contents are edible."

"That's really weird...do you need me to cook it?"

*She notices that she's still holding Renamon's hand & awkwardly disengages, preheats the oven, & then goes to find something to cook the meat in.*
=========================
*Meanwhile, Euryale drops her pants & underwear, all in one go.*

Realizing she's still somewhat dressed, Taiyo takes her backpack off and puts it on the floor and finishes removing her shirt, still fixated on Euryale.

===================================

Renamon: "That won't be nessecary."

*Assuming she finds a pan, she loads the meat in, sprinkling a bit of water on it so that it doesn't dry out.*

"Okay, well, feel free to have some of this when it's done. Sorry, guys, but there wasn't anything to marinade it with...oh, what am I going to eat?"
==========================
*So Euryale slides her bottoms on, & thus the transformation is complete.*
