Devi's Log */**/****
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually feel...Happy! O.o Like something good is gonna come out of today. I mean at the same time, I can't help but shake off that something bad is going to happen before the good... I dunno, maybe its the vacation?
Devi couldn't shake off this weird feeling. She felt like something amazing is going to happen that day and she just didn't know why or what it was. At the same time, she also felt like something bad was going to happen before hand. She wondered if she was just going nuts and was in between good and bad feelings.
Maybe it was a bad idea to take a vacation... Devi thought in her head and sighed. It was sunny that day, therefore, they decided to go out in town that day.
"Finally the rain cleared!" Tenna shouted as she jumped out into the outside.
"I kinda liked it." Eric replied as he rode on Devi's right shoulder in his bat form.
Devi smiled at him and said "Yeah, me too. I enjoy rainy days more then sunny ones."
"I like splashing puddles!" Tenna said and then she sneezed as she said "But that doesn't mean I want it rain all the time."
"Did you get a cold Tenna?" Eric asked
"Aww, I warned ya about jumping around in the rain like that!" Devi told her in a nagging sort of sense.
"It's just a sniffle!" Tenna assured them.
Devi laughed a little bit and shook her head. Eric looked at Devi as he noticed her better attitude.
Maybe this vacation helped her come around a bit more. Eric thought happily in his mind. Least she's feeling a bit better and more like the way she was when I first met her.
"So, what do you wanna do today?" Tenna asked "I got a map with a list of all the interesting places we can go and things to do!" She said as she held the map up in her hands.
"Um..." Devi replied trying to think.
"Why don't we all look at the map and see what to decide together." Eric suggest
"Spooky!" Mr.Spooky replied in agreement.
Before Demi could agree her senses caught something for a quick moment. "Huh?" As she turned to see if she could see anything.
"What is it Demi?" Devi asked her familiar on her head.
"Oh, nothing." Demi replied Maybe it was just my imagination...Besides Devi is in a good mood, so today is gonna be a happy day! With that she perked up with her pigtails arching up and down.
They decided to go to a shopping area near an aquarium the also planned on going to. Through out the time, Demi couldn't help but feel a faint distinction. She couldn't put her little arm on it. It was a faint energy that would appear and disappear the moment she started to feel it, so couldn't decide whether it was something to be weary of. Especially since Devi didn't seem to feel it either. Demi wished the feeling would go away.
I wonder if Mr. Spooky feels it too? She thought to herself.
"Demi, what's wrong?" Eric asked as he flew over to her on Devi's left shoulder.
"Oh, its nothing really." Demi replied
"Hmm, what's up?" Devi looked on her shoulder.
"I noticed you keep looking around like you're searching for something." Eric explained and asked "Is there something going on?"
Demi shook her head and said "No, just doing some sight seeing."
"Well, we can do some sight seeing in the aquarium." Demi replied "I really want to go in there and check out what kind of creatures they have in there."
"Well, they have fish that's for sure." Demi replied
Devi giggled and said "Yeah but thing about fish is that they come in different shapes and forms. I find the ocean and the underwater world pretty interesting, cause of all the weird creatures that come from there."
"You mean they have sea monsters or things like that there?" Demi asked curiously.
"No, they're fish but they look weird." Devi explained "Some fish like from the dark ocean depths, look like something from outer space or straight out of hell. That's kinda one of the reasons why I like going to places like aquariums, cause they give me inspiration for some of the stuff I work on."
"Sounds creepy..." Demi replied "But cool at the same time!" then she perked up and said "Lets go!"
"That's the spirit." Eric replied though not sure of her over enthusiasm about the creepy fish part.
They looked at all different exhibits. Demi got up close a tank with a pufferfish in it. She turned her head curiously at it and as she did the pufferfish blown up which scared her. Demi flew behind Devi who just chuckled at her.
Eric also chuckled and said "It's alright. That fish is more scared of you then you are of it."
"That fish just became a spiky balloon!" Demi exclaimed.
"It's called a 'pufferfish' " Devi explained
"Huh?" Demi replied
"It's a pufferfish." Eric explained and said "It's a fish that puffs up when it feels threaten."
"So it thought I was gonna hurt it?" Demi asked
"Yeah, that or it wanted to impress you!" Devi teased "It might have a little crush on you thought it do the macho act to impress you."
"Ew, yuck!" Demi replied "I don't want to date him, he's got fishy breath!"
They laughed good heartedly as they walked away to look at something else.
"Oh, yikes!" Devi replied as she notice some people looking at them strangle. "We really should be quiet...Damn it!"
"We should really find Tenna." Eric replied
"Oh yeah!" Devi replied
"Hey!" Tenna said as she came over to them.
"Hey Ten." Devi replied "Where were you?"
"Oh, I was at the park outside and saw you two come in here." Tenna replied "Having fun?"
"Yeah..." Devi answered then noticed Eric flew onto Tenna's shoulder.
"Thought it was time to switch rides?" Tenna asked
"Well I thought Devi could use a break from carrying me." Eric replied
"I could use a break from you kissing me to transform..." Tenna added.
"Sorry..." Eric replied a little shamefully
Tenna looked at him for a moment and smiled warmly and said "Just kidding!"
"Yeah, we don't take it personally anymore." Devi explained "Especially since you just do it in an emergency."
"Yeah..." Eric replied a little shyly. It wasn't something he was proud of but at times he had no choice. His bat form was useless at least when it came to fighting. He wished there was some other way to transform without doing that. He felt so wrong doing that. Not kissing any of them but just doing it without much of their content. It felt wrong kissing someone he wasn't dating.
"Hey why don't we go to this great walking trail I found on the map?" Tenna suggested. "There's like a wildlife park and camp site area that seems like a lot of fun!"
"You want to go camping?" Eric asked curiously
"No!" Tenna replied "Just visit. There's supposedly a lake and water fall near by too. It would be a change of scenery if we visit a little mother nature."
"Yeah, you're right." Devi replied.
"Okay, that sounds like fun." Eric replied.
"Okay, lets go!" Tenna replied
****
They took a bus up to the park and arrived about less than half an hour. The entry of the park is where a lot of people camped and picnicked being it was a bit more safer, along with beautiful. It was situated in a valley of trees and in the far left hand side of the entry gate, there was a lake on the side of a small cliff where a waterfall spouted from the cliff.
"I told you this place was cool!" Tenna said "Let's go exploring!"
They walked among one of the hiking trails and just chatted away. Being they were in a more secluded area, their familiars got to float around more freely around them, but had to return to their partner's side when they sensed or saw other people. Devi was actually really enjoying herself. She enjoyed a bit of the fresher air and shade among the trees.
Eric enjoyed it as well, especially since he could fly around and stretched his wings. The cool air felt good on him, he was getting hot while they were in the shopping area. However, it was starting to get dark and a forest did get kinda creepy at night. As they were walking out, they all felt a strong presence and then Wam! Devi was slammed to the ground and Tenna was kicked out of the way, while Eric was swat to the ground to be separated from both girls.
When Devi looked up, she saw Johnny in front of her. Tenna and Eric both looked in shock.
"Oh no...He's awake..." Eric whispered to himself.
"Oh, what's he doing here!?" Tenna snapped annoyedly
"Spooky!" Spooky reminded her it was time.
"Right!" Tenna replied as she handed her hand out to Mr. Spooky who turned into his staff form.
"Devi!" Demi shouted as she flew to her master, but Nny jumped in and ended up swatting her away, so she couldn't help Devi.
"Johnny, what are you doing?!" Devi asked
"I have to destroy you..." Johnny said this time he was completely dazed and by the looks of it, the darkness was controlling his mind completely. He had no control this time.
"He's completely out of it!" Devi said "I have to find away to get through to him!"
Tenna jumped in and try attacking him from behind, but Johnny managed to turn quickly and attack her in mid air.
"Tenna!" Devi shouted
Eric quickly flew over to Devi but again he was struck to the ground by Nny.
"You're not Nny..." Devi said "Are you?..."
"What do you mean?" Tenna asked
"I mean, something is actually controlling Johnny's body!" Devi said "I feel like another presence in Johnny!"
"Smart for a young knight..." Said Johnny or more so the presence in Nny.
"Why are you controlling him?" Devi asked it.
"Because he is not yet fully awaken yet..." The presence within Nny said. "I have enough energy to get him to do something right and eliminate you..."
"Oh wonderful..." Tenna replied as she coughed, She was still recovering from the attack she just endured.
"Are you the darkness that we must fight?" Devi asked it. "Are you the one that's doing this?"
The presence said nothing as is made Nny summon his energy blade. "Give up..." It said "Just give up...There's no hope for this world...The darkness within your heart will consume you eventually...So just give up and let us end your life right now..."
"That's not true!" Demi cried out as she flew over to Devi again, but before she could make Nny swung at her. Devi jumped in and took the hit, shielding Demi with her body and clutching Demi protectively in her hand. Both tumbled to the ground.
"Devi?" Demi said worriedly as she looked over to her friend who was getting up and quickly picked her up.
"What you said is not true!" Devi sneered at the presence. "As long as I'm a live and breathing, there is still hope in this world!"
"What?..." It made Nny say.
"You're too late for that doubt talk to work on me!" Devi said "I went through a whole lot of hell and over came it. Anyone can over come their doubts and insecurities. My friends did and I did, we all fought the darkness within our hearts and over came it! And I know deep inside, Johnny can too! "
"Wow..." Tenna replied
Eric managed to lift his head to look at what was going on.
"Devi..." Demi replied a bit surprised as she started to feel a glow in her. An odd power they had never felt before was starting to build up inside.
"You think you can do that?" The presence said
"Just watch me!" Devi told him.
"Devi, can you feel it?!" Demi exclaimed.
Devi noticed the odd feeling of a new power. "Wait, what's going on?"
"I dunno but when you stood up like that this new feeling became stronger!" Demi exclaimed cheerfully
"This is the power of the true knight." Said a voice
Devi recognized the voice "Mina?" She said as she looked around. Tenna looked around too
"I'm no where near you but I'm watching the whole event from my crystal ball." Mina said "You guys can hear my voice through a spell upon my crystal ball. Devi listen carefully...The power welding up in you is the power to merge with your familiar!"
"Merge with my familiar?" Devi asked
"From what I learned from the legend of the knights," Mina continued "the knights were able to merge with their familiars to gain their armor. You need to transform with your familiar to dress into your armor."
"How do I do that?" Devi asked
"You focus your mind and what your goal is here." Mina said.
Devi closed her eyes and began to focus. I want to protect my friends. I started to feel better about myself and the world around me. I want to keep this feeling, cause for so long I had felt distant and distrustful and now, I had been feeling positive and close to people that care about me. I don't want that to be taken away!
With that Demi began to glow and floated into her Devi's chest. With this Devi also began to glow. Her body felt warm as something appeared on her body. It was like she wasn't wearing the same clothes anymore. The power she felt was sensational. She felt she could never get hurt again. It was almost the same feeling as when she first called on Demi to turn into her brush form.
Speaking of which, Devi's fude brush appeared in front of her. As soon as she looked at it, she took it and then the glow illuminating from her body, burst and vanished. Her clothing was different now. She wore a magenta color top with armor shoulder pads, with armor chest plates. The armor pads had a white swirl in the middle of them, as well as white lining around the outfit. She wore skirt and shorts that almost touched her knee. Her magenta armor knee high boots, had white rings that went from the top to the ankle. Upon the toe area of the boots had the same swirl as her shoulder pads. She also had armored gloves that went up half way up her arms.
"Woah!" Tenna replied
"Very nice..." Eric replied
"Devi, we did it!" Devi heard Demi said. "We merged inside you and you gained your armor! You're an official knight now!"
"So you're in me?" Devi asked Demi
"Yeah!" Demi replied "In your heart and mind. It's kinda hard to explain..."
"Who are you?" the presence asked through Johnny.
Devi looked at him and felt the words to say. "I represent creativity and love! Armor of a rose color! Knight of Magenta Heart!" Then she pointed at him and said "My passionate heart won’t stop beating! So just shut up and listen!"
"Then be destroyed..." The presence said as he charged at Devi with all his might.
"Devi, now!" Demi told her. Devi nodded as waved her fude brush effortless and out came the liquid ink like substance, but this time it illuminated a bit and when it struck Johnny, he fell back.
"Now that's power!" Tenna replied
"Spooky!" Mr. Spooky agreed.
Devi then drew her kanji, this time in the air and called forth "Hikari Heartbeat Wave!" With that she forced her hand out front and the attack sent out a shocking force of energy at Johnny, who was rendered helpless.
"Devi!" Her friends called out as they went over to her.
"Okay?" Eric asked
"Yeah..." Devi replied Devi then walked over to the unconscious Johnny.
"Um, Devi..." Eric replied as he flew up.
"I don't think you should go near him!" Tenna replied
Johnny then opened his eyes and looked towards Devi who knelt beside him. This time, this was Johnny. The presence was gone for now. He noticed her armor and felt her new power.
"Nny?" Devi replied "Are you okay?"
Johnny just looked at her for a moment. She then handed her hand out to help him. After a moment he finally began to reach it but then felt a twinge of pain, which seemed to becoming from his heart.
"Johnny!" She called out as she tried to help him, but he quickly jumped out of the way from being touched and disappeared up into midair. Devi looked down sadly upon this as she felt to her knees.
"Devi!" Tenna and Eric went over to her again as she transformed back. Tenna caught her before she fell back.
"You okay?" Tenna asked her friend.
"Yeah I think so..." Devi replied "I'm just worn out....I guess I gotta get use to transforming"
"Me too..." Demi said as she managed to float up to Devi and then sat on her head.
"Well, you did great today!" Eric said "You gained your armor and fought Johnny or whoever that was in him by yourself."
"Yeah, you should be proud of yourself today!" Tenna replied "You know we are!"
"Thanks..." Devi said with a warm smile.
"So what got you going anyway?" Tenna asked "I mean to just suddenly stand up like that?"
"I think it was the fact that lately, I've been feeling really good about everything." Devi said "Something that I haven't felt in a long time...I guess I just didn't want anyone taking that away from me."
Her friend's expressions brightened a bit more upon hearing this.
“That...and I really want to help him....” She thought to herself. Demi looked down at her master and nodded with a warm expression on her face, sensing her thoughts.
They all went back to the hotel to relax for the night and two days later, they finally went back home.
