Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ The Little Mermaid, er -Cat ❯ Enter the Witch ( Chapter 2 )

[ A - All Readers ]
Well, there seemed to be some enthusiasm for this. Hope I haven’t overworked the ‘hentai’ angle, but Joe’s natural personality made him so vulnerable to it! Who else could be like that? Anyhoo, in our last scene, The young mermaid was chastised by her sisters for wanting to feel love, when a stranger falls(literally) into her life. One stolen kiss, and can she ever be the same?

Pata: “No fair! Why am I in a dress?! I’m a *boy*!
Neffie: “Because Toei simply didn’t create enough female characters.”
Pata: “So make up a character!”
Neffie: “Wouldn’t be sporting. No one would know what she’d look like besides me.”
Pata: “So What?!”
Neffie: “Listen, ‘Ears’- all it takes is the addition of *one* measly letter to change your whole perspective on this!”
Pata: “Eeep!”

Sea-Witch: Gomamon
Prince Elvis: Veemon
Princess Ingred: Patamon


~~Backstage~~

*Gatomon is busy pounding the hell out of poor Veemon*

<Gatomon: “What the hell did you think you were trying to pull out there?!”>

<Veemon: “OW! I wasn’t-Ouch!- trying anything! Ow, Ow! All I remember was -Ooof!- hitting the floor-Yeow!-and dreaming-That *hurts*!!”>

<Gatomon: “You were *dreaming* you were kissing me like that?! That’s just sick! I’m nobody’s sex kitten!”>

<Veemon*as the pounding continues*: “I’msorry!I’msorry!I’msorry!!!”>

*Tai groans and sweatdrops as the feline continues her tirade*

<Matt*smugly* : “*Still* think this is the fun part?”>

<Tai: “MATT!” *desparately clings to him* “Please, please, please reconsider! Between Gatomon’s temper and Joe’s nosebleeds, I don’t know how much more I can take!”>

<Matt: “You couldn’t *pay* me enough to take this job! Besides, I’ve got my hands full enough keeping Gabumon out of Mimi’s hair.”>

<Tai: “Where is Gabumon, anyway?”>

<Matt: “Ah, I’ve got him tied up back at the apartment.”>

<Tai*pointing*: “Are you *sure* about that?”>

*Matt follows Tai’s finger to a length of pipe dragging from a steel chain. The other end lies behind a door. Giggling is faintly audibly.*

<Matt: “CRIPES! Dad’s gonna have a cow! GABUMON!!”>

<Tai: “Gatomon! Knock it off and get onstage! Curtain’s going up in 5...4...3...2...


~~Act 1, Scene 2~~

*The underwater scenery is back, but this time all the sisters save Gatomon are cloistered on a large rock cropping at different levels. Palmon seems to be having trouble keeping a serious face...

Gatomon is on the original rock, apart from the others, her eyes focused on the ‘surface’*

Sora: “Little sister, you have been moping for a full waxing and waning of the moon! Please, tell us what ails you?”

Gato: “If but I could!”

Mimi: “Then tell us! We are bound by blood, what ails one of us ails us all!”

Gato*looks hesitantly, opens her mouth, then quickly looks away*: “I will not say. It is nothing important anyway.”

Sora: “Let us decide that, sister.”

Miyako*disapprovingly*: “ *I* know what she hides! She *kissed* a man. A land-using, sea-raping man!”

<Joe: “Isn’t that a little harsh?”>

<Gomamon: “Shouldn’t you be in the bathroom?”>

*The sisters gasp and make varied hushed exclamations. Gatomon hangs her head in shame.*

Sora*warningly*: Little sister. Is this tale true?”

Gato: “<sigh>. It is true. A man floated from the dry world to me. I, wishing to know the emotion of love, did not drag his corpse to the bottoms. Nay, instead, I kissed his lips and brought him back to the world above.”

Sora: “This is indeed a grave sin, little sister. But, you are still so very young, I’m sur you will be forgiven.”

Gato*warily*: “Forgiven? How?”

Mimi: “You must go above and sing a song of seduction, one so sweet, it will enchant the very souls of the humans. Enthralled, they will seek you where you hide and allow their vessel to break apart among the reefs and rocks.”

Biyo: “Take the fairest man among them and seduce him. You already know the spell to cast. Bring him alive to our Father’s shrine.”

Pal: “Offer a prayer in his honor and break the spell. If the Master is pleased by the man’s death dance, you will be forgiven.”

Gato: “And if I am not?”

*By this point, Sora has come down off the mountain and stands by the cat. She puts a reassuring hand on her shoulder*

Sora: “You *will*.”

Gato*haughtily*: “What if I decline this cleansing?”

Sora*warningly*: “Do not make such presumptions. This is our way. We survive at his mercy, and it is best we do not forsake it.”

*Gatomon nods meekly and Sora walks back up the mountain, which begins to twist away off stage. Miyako returns and looks back at Gatomon with a sneer*

Miyako: “And dear little sister. I suggest you forget all about this notion of love and desire. Do you know what happens to the mermaid who makes love to a man?”

*A dull thud is heard as Ken faints dead away offstage.*

Gato: “No, elder sister. I don’t.”

Miyako*blushing slightly*: “She wastes away and becomes the formless foam that clings neither to sea nor land.”

*She runs off, cackling, leaving a horrified Gatomon behind and alone*

Gato: “Then...I guess I must do what’s to be done.”

*Shakily, she walks off

<Gomamon*singsong*: “I get to be e-vil, I get to be e-vil!”>

*He continues singing as Tai finally notices him

<Tai*angrily*: “You’re gonna be a plushie if you don’t get onstage right *NOW*!!”> *tries to kick him, but Gomamon dances out of the way and continues humming as he bounds onstage

<Joe: “Hoo boy. We’re all gonna die.”>*

Goma: “And what is that, maiden of the sea?”

Gato: “Why-w-who are you?”

Goma: “All depends on what you see, little enchantress. Some say I’m a sainted fool, others a clever devil. Some say I am up, others down. Perhaps I am your imagination, perhaps I am your sins? Your savior, or-’

*While he speaks, he improvises a dance around Gatomon until the last line. At this point, he tackles the shocked cat and stares directly into her eyes.*

Goma: “-your downfall?”

*Gatomon is clearly flustered by the sea lion’s antics, and she roughly shoves him off*

Gato: “Your speech is confusing. If you’ll excuse me, I must make alms to the sea god.”

Goma*still clearly enjoying this* : “But is that what you *really* want?”

Gato: “What do you think.”

Goma*hamming it up by strutting across the stage in a burlesque manner, causing Tai to bury his head in his hands* : “*I* think you are a smarter sea maiden than most. *I* think you are in love with a human, and *I* think I can help you.”

Gato: “You can? How?! A mermaid can’t love a human!”

Goma*stretching out on his back across Gatomon’s rock*: “Oh, so true, so true. But what if you were not?”

Gato*catching on to his drift, walks conspiratorially over to him*: “You...you can do this thing you speak of?”

Goma*rolling over*: “Of course-a guppy could do it. But it *will* cost, sea-child.”

Gato: “Whatever you desire, if you will give me mine!”

Goma*lazily*: “I’m something of a connoisseur. I like pretty things. You’re pretty, but it wouldn’t be sporting to ask you, so instead I ask for...your voice!”

Gato*stunned*: “My...voice?”

Goma: “Mm-hmm. It is pretty too, and will make a fine substitute. But no need to rush into such a deal, hm? Take it home, think it over, yada yada yada, and decide it’s a fair trade. When you do, come find me in the largest vessel of the forbidden drifts.”

Gato*eyes widening in realization*: “The forbidden drifts?! You’re the sea-witch!”

Goma*clucking disapprovingly*: “Such a nasty title. I prefer the term ‘ocean-enabler’, or maybe ‘water-boy’. Ha!”

*He leaps off the rock and cavorts offstage*

Goma: “And don’t think this deal lasts forever! You only have till sunrise before your sisters find out!”

*Gatomon is alone again. Stage is bare and dulled*

Gato: “To love a human as a human, and not fear becoming cursed foam...is such a miracle possible? I would never see my sisters again. Is it worth it?

I’ve only known that man but moments, my sisters since birth. But all I can see, and feel is his face, his lips, his beauty. Do I trust the sea-witch? Or do I go above to repent my wrongful lusts and live a life of ‘what-ifs’?”

*She hugs herself and sinks to the floor, skirt billowing. As she ponders deeply, the curtain draws closes, ending Scene 2*




Gee, I should really get Gomi his own story! He keeps stealing everybody else’s scenes! He’s just too darn cute for his own good!

Ah well, here we go into Scene 3!
