Asher pulled up his hood while the breeze blew by, unconsciously fiddling with one of the hood ears. Quietly observing the instructor explaining instructions on how to digivolve. Vulcan brightened up from the word battle, eyes twinkling in awe from the digivolution.

[i][color=6ecff6]“...Can I really do that?”[/color][/i] Asher thought, rubbing his cheek and looking at Anemone digivolving her partner. Pulling the digivice from his pant’s pocket. Catching Vulcan’s attention, flames started waving erratically. Charging straight at Asher, stopping inches away from his face. Seeing Vulcan’s wide smile, feeling like he dipped his nose into a campfire.

[color=#ff6b00]“Me next! You can do it!”[/color] Vulcan exclaimed bouncing in the air, his enthusiasm was contagious. Asher smiled slightly. Giving his partner a nod and stood up from the table. Taking a deep breath and attempting to focus, he gulped and held the digivice up. Feeling some force flowing through his fingertips, feeling a sense of static shock. Vulcan focused on the glowing screen, beginning to match in intensity. Asher’s eyes closed, clenching his teeth like he was suffering a tactile hallucination. The atmosphere became a layer of darkness blanketed over him. Similar to a lucid dream, despite knowing it wasn’t tangible, it felt very real. Witnessing a dragon towering above him, its infinite wingspan outstretched. Obscured in darkness and bathed in fire. Blood red flames dripping from the creatures jaws. 

Asher didn’t feel in danger, clenching the digivice tighter. What felt longer, had only been a couple of seconds to the others. When Asher’s eyes opened, he saw Vulcan had changed into a black dragon, albeit quite smaller. Asher’s jaw dropped, seeing Vorvomon for the first time. Vulcan’s wings fluttered higher in the sky, head held high. Vulcan let out a heavy exhale, spitting out fire. Vulcan suddenly let out an uproar of laughter. Asher could tell his voice had gotten deeper.

[color=#ff6b00]“Yes! I feel stronger. I feel powerful!”[/color] Vorvomon said, not shouted but seemed equally intense. Suddenly shifting his prideful posture, starting to hyperventilate. Vulcan began to plummet like a stone, diving into Asher’s arms. [color=#ff6b00]“Now, I’m tired.”[/color] Vulcan sighed being held, appearing content, sharp teeth grinning.

[i][color=6ecff6]“He certainly got heavier,”[/color][/i] Asher thought.[i] [color=6ecff6]“Maybe he’ll be calmer now too-”[/color][/i]

[color=#ff6b00]“Now when do we get to fight?”[/color] Vulcan asked head turned to Lilac then at the other tamers with their in-training digimon. [color=#ff6b00]“Come on! What’s taking you so long?!”[/color] Vulcan jeered at Dante and Max, while acting restless. Clutching Asher’s arm with his claws, starting to feel a burning sensation.

[color=6ecff6]“Try to chill a little.”[/color] Asher reminded maintaining in a calm voice, despite the growing discomfort.
