*Digimon:Digital Sensations!(Starts,2 LSU's!)*

[Thargor]

Am I the only one creeped out by a 15 year old boy making out with a 10 year old girl? O.o;;

Kenichi Tanaka
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As we re-entered the crowds of digimon, Rigiamon settled in walking by my side. Between us there was a silence, despite the sounds of the city. The creatures around us seemed to be dulled somewhat as thoughts were turned over in our minds. It was far from an uncomfortable silence, actually a very comfortable one. Rigiamon's personality seemed to almost mirror my own, and I felt closer to him than I had during my years of being handed from foster family to foster family. I wondered how the Celestials had known which digimon to give me...

"Kenichi," Rigiamon said to me in a side whisper, his eyes still going ahead of us. We were making a leisurely pace down the street.

"Yeah?" I said, keeping my eyes forward as well, hands in my pockets with one gripped around the Black Rapidmon card, the other on my D-Sense.

"I don't trust that girl, she stinks of the Lunar involvment," Rigiamon said. "And I know about how they operate..."

"How could they have gotten humans to side with them?" I asked, my interest peeked at this.

Rigiamon shrugged. "They were talking about getting humans involved before the... incident... They hadn't gotten the technical details down when I was still with them. Back then, they were only aiming on converting other digimon to their cause. And having me create new ones."

I nodded slowly. "Yes... I doubt that incident will be the last trouble she causes. But we will be as bad as these Lunars if we act prematurely against her... Like it or not, it seems we've been scripted as the good guys in this. We have to be the ones to react. At least in this case."

Rigiamon nodded. "Yes, that is the right course... Though I doubt it will make it easier on any of us..." He paused for a moment, and sniffed the air.

"Three humans coming in this direction," he said.

I looked ahead, and as the crowd parted infront of us I could see Morrigan, Laura, and Jun heading towards us. I gave a wave towards them, and Morrigan gave me a shocked look. She ran up to me, and looked me over.

"What happened back at the hotel, where did you go?" She asked me.

"I got a free ride to the Earth Temple I suppose... Though it was unwanted at the time. Aunayailia somehow managed to follow me there. That's where I met my partner Rigiamon."

I pointed a thumb at Rigiamon, and Morrigan looked up at Rigiamon for the first time. Laura and Jun caught up, and saw in time Morrigan involuntarily moving away from my new digimon. The two others gave my partner a look of surprise, and perhaps a little fear? This was more the reaction I had been expecting from people at Rigiamon, unlike the odd one Aunie had displayed. Rigiamon took it in stride, however, and gave the assembled group a big bow.

"Morrigan McCloud, Laura Rider, and Jun Wakami. A pleasure to meet you all. I am Rigiamon, Kenichi's partner. There is no need to fear me, for I am a friend."

Morrigan seemed to recover first. "I'm not afraid of you, just got surprised a bit that's all." All of them had to look up to Rigiamon, his height something that nobody could ignore.

"Nice to meet you as well," she said, taking one of Rigiamon's hands. Jun and Laura followed suit, as Rigiamon simultaneously shook all of their hands.

"I'm sorry, but I must go for a little while... I can sense Hawkmon nearby, and I must speak with him. I will be back soon."

With that, Rigiamon leapt into the air, bounded off the side of a building, and turned into a blur in the bright lights of the city. He dissapeared moments after, leaving the group with a dazed look. I simply looked at the rest of the group assembled.

"So, have I missed anything?"

Rigiamon [A chat with an old friend...]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I fell to the ground once more, infront of a beauty parlor. Many female digimon were milling around the front of the buisness which was garishly decorated with pink colored feathers. Just the place Hawkmon would go to "pick up chicks". I just shook my head at this thought. It was too much to hope that my fellow chosen digimon would be serious... I knew that Hawkmon had connections within the Digital world, but his attitude was that of a flirt. Besides, he had been the biggest critic of my becoming a chosen digimon for Kenichi.

Going inside, I spotted him immiediatly talking to a Hawkmon painted in pink, the owner of the beauty parlor. I walked up silently behind him.

"We need to talk Hawkmon," I looked down at him, then at the female one. "Take a hike for awhile."

The pink hawkmon paled visibly, as Hawkmon jumped several feet in the air. He turned around, then his eyes grew wide. It was only for a moment though, as they narrowed quickly.

"So, I see you're here now... I guess the Celestials didn't go by my suggestion of leaving you to your misbegotten fate, huh?"

I shook my head briefly. "It is in everybody's best interest now if you drop that as quickly as possible. My past means little now, though it does mean I know more about our enemy than you do."

"Are you sure they are your enemy?"

"As long as they are Kenichi's enemy, they will be my enemy." I gave him a sharp look, daring him to say I was lying.

He was quiet for a moment. "I see... So, what do you want?"

"Information about what's happening. You were out first, as Kenichi had told me, and I want another perspective on what's been going on so far. There was only so much I was able to hear inside that egg," I said. "And, I also want to know if Satoshi or Kenichi knows yet."

"To answer your second question, neither of them know their relationship to each other yet. There hasn't been an opportunity to tell them-"

"And there won't be," I ended for him. Hawkmon gave me an odd look.

"Don't you think they have the right to know? Kenichi does at the very least..." Hawkmon said.

"No, it could hurt the group, and what it sounds like, the group isn't very tight at the moment, save little relationships cropping up. The knowledge could make Kenichi... Resentful towards Satoshi. Before I'm with him longer, I can't be sure of his reaction.

"I see..." Hawkmon said.

"Now, start talking about what's been going on, so we can get back to the group."

Hawkmon nodded slowly, and began to recall the recent events that had occurred...

[Kioshi Wakami]

Hah it is sorta wrong. But then again Jun is 17 and he kissed Laura who is 14. However, I didn't know that until I looked back at her stats XD oh well.

[Haruko]

Personally, it is a little weird, but the thing is...It isn't entirely wrong. Love shouldn't have any borderlines on age, or genders..Matter of factly(which is another topic all together). Though, Satoshi was just playing in the moment.

I'll be editing this post in a little later. My sister's doing a Essay on the computer, and she's going to the...x.x

Anyway, you guy's wouldn't mind if I brought Aoi in a little later in the DW part?Too much character isolation.^^;I mean, like 2 cities from now.

[Thargor]

I think age doesn't really matter... But that really comes into play when you are older, and know what you are getting yourself into. A twenty year old dating a twenty five year old for an example. But a ten year old girl and a 15 year old boy... That is having a 4th grader in elementary school having a boyfriend who is a freshman in highschool. Now having a relationship like that is uncommon, at least in my experiance.

[Kioshi Wakami]

Ne ne, I dated a 29 year old when I was 16. Oh well~ XD;;;;

[Haruko]

The next town is coming soon!!

Primary Village -This village is the place where every digimon, and to be said to date, 1 human, has been reborn here. The center of this village is a huge tree which leave's glow in a rainbow color at dusk and dawn.

Temple's Include:

Light temple -This temple, only reachable by Dawn, the entrance is located at the base of the Center Tree.The inside is of a Pure, White Gold. This is Kouji's Temple.The Guard of the Temple is Akina Morimoto.

Dark Temple -This temple is like Light's temple, and for this, is Located at the same place at the base of the tree. But it's only reachable by Dusk.This is Morrigan's temple.The Guard of this temple is Gali Virgo. When both orbs are gotten, the 2 Gaurdian's will join each temple to be one in the same, and the fight with the digimon will comense. (Gali and Akina liked each other, so this make's sense.)

New Characters:
Aoi- Simply done, Orphanimon brings her here to protect her from Yami Seraphimon.Like Haruka, Aoi is mortal in this world, and can die, and can turn into a digiegg. ut she only stays in this world untill before the last city.

"Hephaestusmon..Yeah!!Kick that Salamandemon's butt!"I said loudly, cheering on my partner. Salamandemon was almost out for the count, Hephaestusmon would need a one-two finish!!

"Fire Wisp!!"Hephaestusmon belowed. Her tail wagged, and created strong embers. They flew to the opponent, and his Data scattered everywhere..

"Now..scan!!"She yelled. I wondered how, but I decided to just think, somewhere...I had to know it. I pressed the button, and made a Venn-Diagram shape. His data collected once more into a card, and it fell to the ground..

"Ohh.."I said. I suddenly got a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach, like I was moving. Hephaestusmon got back to being Labramon, and she picked up the card with her mouth, and tried not to drool on it. My bag fell off my back, and my Cell phone came out....It sent out a loud BUURRRR noise, and then the light on the top of the flip top went off..

"Please..I moved you here for your own safety. Please, do not be harmed, as you will be relocated back into your world shortly."A Strong, soft womans voice echoed in the room..

I got my backpack, my D-Sense, and the card I got from Salamandemon, and got up on my feet. Labramon ran for the door, and started to nudge on it..

"My hometown.."She said as I went over to open for it..

"Primarry village."

I carried Laura out of the Brightly Lighten Casino into the brightly lighten steet's of Las Mesa.She just wept and wept..Holding onto my T-shirt like a little kid and her dolly.

Alpha Magnetmon just kept on looking at Laura and shrugging. i just looked at her, and kept on looking for the group. Or some people that were in the group. Besides Haruka. Besides Aunyailya.

So, I looked around some more. I also had that bag of money that Hawkmon gave me from his account, which I had made Laura hold tightly...

I wasn't in the mood to talk to Hawkmon right now...



1400th posty for me..Whooppeee..

It was a while before I finally stopped crying, I had to be a big girl, and I couldn't keep letting Satoshi see me like this he may think I'm some crying baby or something.

"Satoshi, can you put me down, I think I can walk for now" I told him, he slowly let me down and I tried to clean my face up and un frazzle my hair, I looked aweful, Satoshi had just kissed me and now I looked aweful.

"Are you okay?" My digimon asked me. I nodded and mumbled a reply, the Digimon wasn't as cute as Hawkmon, but it was very nice and seemed to care about me.

"Hey there's everyone" Satoshi pointed out, ahead of us seemed to be a small part of the group who had began to mass together near a building.

"Are you going to be okay?" He asked getting down on a knee and straightening my hair. I smiled a little as he cleaned my face off which had been dirty and red from everything that happened earlier. After cleaning me up alittle he stood back up again and we began our trek to the group again.

"Satoshi?" I asked him running up to catch up to him. " Can I hold your hand?"

He seemed to smile at this and grasped my hand, we walked over to the group together holding hands, and for a moment I had forgotten that I had just lost daddy again. I interlocked my fingers around Satoshi's and began to take my final steps into hearing range of the group.

"So, have I missed anything?" Kenichi asked as Satoshi and I walked up to them.

"I got my orb and Digimon" I chipped up, causing everyone to turn and look at me, there were so many faces, so many people I didnt know or had seen only briefly.

"Oh and Satoshi, kis..." I tried to say but Satoshi placed a hand over my mouth causing me to mumble out the rest, I tried again but got even less out. Was Satoshi emberased at what happened? or did he just want to keep it private.

OoC: Oooh, Arnen's the guardian of the Fire Temple, right? *pokies* *is annoying*

I watched Laura and the others, detached and almost dreamilly. The water from the fountain left shimmering droplets on my hair and face, but I didn't mind; it was really quite soothing. Blinking, I realised for the first time that in my pocket I still carried the small CD-player that I'd had with me at the convention. I popped it open and saw that my favorite CD, which I had burned all the best songs onto, so I closed it and pushed play.

As I sat there listening, slowly whispering the words, I gazed at the key card Laura had given me. It had to have been the nicest thing anyone (aside from my family... maybe...) had ever done for me, just for maybe wanting to be my friend. Blinking a drop of water out of my eye (it wasn't a tear, really!) I tucked it away into my pocket.

"How are the others?" Jason's voice rang into my head. Normally, I wouldn't want this to be happening, but this meant I could not be seen. Which was good, considering a few moments ago I was staring down the missile launchers of an Andromon.

...It's a long story. I'll explain later.

I turned back to see the mess that was made during that whole brawl. Chances were, I'd be banned from the casino, but I didn't plan on returning.

"None are handling this well," Ark commented, "It concerns me as well. Notice a slight pattern?"

I shivered slightly, I really didn't want to discover any deeper meaning than what I already know. Whatever pattern, however, would have to be discovered later as the background noise and everything with it disappeared. I was visible again.

"THERE HE IS!" A deep throaty voice rang out.

"Crap!" I said, running toward the nearest window, not daring to look back.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's funny, you know, how wierd life can be. Despite my skill in Poker, there seems to be some Karmic Law that prevents me from exceeding a ten-game winning streak, though I suppose it doesn't help that I bring some of it on to myself. So I've taken the time to learn about everything I can in my situation.

...Like the fact that there is a long rod that juts from the building beneath that window.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Ouch," I grunted out, hands in considerable pain again. It also didn't help that A) I had to vomit and B) There was now a gash in my cheek due to some berserker Agumon, but from there I was able to get my way to the second floor, enter the building, and run down the flight of stairs.

Inconveniently, a good majority of the gang were outside. Morrigan took one look at my battered appearance.

"You belittled their Poker strategies, haven't you?" she said, coldly. I struggled a bit to speak.

"Just the dealer's. It turns out the whole Poker group are dumber than rocks."

She wasn't impressed, "What did you say?" I got a bit indignant as I wasn't quite in the mood for this.

"Look, I won a fair deal of money," I said, "and I can cash it in at other casinos, alright? I checked the policy. So why don't we just forget about it and blow off my winnings. How does that sound?"

Aunyailia Vergere
-=-=-=-

"Aunyailia!" A voice called to me, gathering my attention. The voice was very muffled. Surprised, I looked around, but could see no one. Then, there was a scratch at my heels, and I looked down, seeing Hoshimon. In her mouth were cards, and then there were more wrapped in her tail. There was nearly enough to build a second deck, if I so chose. She seemed very happy with herself.

I grinned, bending down and relieving Hoshimon of her burden. "You escaped right out from under them, didn't you?" I cooed. She nodded. "Such a clever Digimon!" I patted her head, having stacked the cards in a neat pile. She bent down low, ready to pounce and take her place on my shoulder. I scooped her up into my arms.

"Je regrette," I whispered into her cat ears. "I can't have you with me for a while. Things are about to get interesting, and I can't risk getting caught. So I need you to stay out of sight. And, besides, this way I can have extra eyes out there, have someone be in the places I can't, and I can stop playing 'Act and React' all the time." I half-grinned, then it faded as soon as it came. "Do you understand?"

Hoshimon nodded affirmatively. "I'll be the... Digimon who was never destined to you, and ran away." She didn't sound too happy with the cover story. "How will I know when you'll need me?"

"I'll let you know." I murmured. "Go. Train, make me proud." I giggled. "And when you get back, those kids will get a surprise." I winked, and she just stared back at me. I hesitated, then hugged her close. She gave me a lick on the cheek, then jumped out of my arms.

Hoshimon stepped away, then paused and looked at me. "Sayou nara." She whispered, before running off. I watched until her feathery tail faded from sight, then looked down at the card pile. Standing up, I examined them. They weren't exactly invincible, but they could come in useful someday. After all, they were from Hoshimon. I pocketed them, and turned to continue my way.

A little bit ahead of me, passing through some streets, twists, and turns all by myself, I saw the group. Satoshi and Laura were a bit farther away, making their way to the group themselves. I snuck into the back end of the crown, unnoticed, and watched. Standing on the tips of my toes, I saw Laura run up to Satoshi, and their hands intertwine. Laura, sad to say, looked horrible. Satoshi had looked better, himself. Near them, was a Digimon. Had I missed Laura's orb-getting?

A little disappointed with myself on missing such an event, my mind started taking account of the finger-holding. Only then did I start calculating the age difference. It was what... 3, 4 years? Inwardly, I winced, disgusted. A bit much, especially at Laura's age. And a slight oversight on my behalf, as I nearly put into play this thing. Then again, it might work out. Which, of course, would be wonderful... Still, it left me with a strange feeling. And it takes a lot to disturb me.

However, keeping my thoughts to myself, I placed a smile on my face. A smile in relief that Laura was safe and seemingly happy. My eyes gleamed - hiding my loneliness without Hoshimon - with pride on Laura getting her Digimon and orb.

"So, have I missed anything?" A voice that I had somewhat grown to know as familiar asked. The group was now giving their full attention as Laura and Satoshi joined it. I left my thoughts, and drifted back, allowing emotions and character reinforce the display on my face.


OOC: For the record, Aunyailia does not disapprove of the L/S 'ship, but she's not exactly sure how she feels about it.

I looked over at Laura, who was wanting to willing say that..We kissed. I blushed when she tried to blurt out the words, and placed my hand over her mouth to muffle it. She tried again to say it, but I found my hand going to her mouth..

I looked her, and make a please-don't-tell face, my eye's gave a dead lock.She shut up, and I continued to look at the group as they chatted. I looked at my Bag in my right hand, and I thought as to what I would use it for. Maybe some supplies..A thing for Haruka to make up.But most likely, some supplies.And some food.

I looked over for a second, my mind wasn't really onto the conversation. I looked around for Hawkmon, Haruka or Lopmon.
I found none of them, and continued to blur the voices in the group.I was just...so tired...

"Laura,"I sighed, giving in to my tiredness,"I'm going back to the hotel.If you want to come along..then ok. I'll leave the door unlocked just incase you want to stay out a little bit more."

"I'll come!"She said, somewhat happy. Below the little nicks and stuff from that fight, nothing made her look unhappy at all. Alpha Magnetmon agreed also.

"Well, I'm going to bed. I'll..see you all in the mourning then."I said, trying to add some wakey-ness and cheerfullness to my voice, to no prevail. My voice made me sound like I was on my last bit of caffiene..

So, I dragged my tired butt, and Laura..with her digimon, to the hotel.Hawkmon could just some in the window or something, since he could fly. And Haruka had a spare key, so she could get Hawkmon in if anything.

"Sorry for leaving the group so soon..If you still want to talk to them, then go ahead. I need sleep."I told her. My body ached, my eye's seemed to have a mind of it's own..I actually didn't really feel tired before we came to the group..It was if someone wanted me asleep.

But the feeling wasn't like before. This presence was like that of a mothers.A warm feeling..you know? I looked at Laura, and tried ot put on a happy smile,"Well, there are 2 laz-y-boy's and a couch. I'll take.."

"The couch."Laura said,"It's ok if I get a Laz-y-boy."I somewhat wanted to fight with her, but I just felt my body searching the closet for some blankets. I pulled out a bunch, 5 or 6. I threw one to Alpha Magnetmon, who was sleeping besides Laura's Laz-y-boy.I threw one over to the other Lazy-boy...Actually,2. And I gave one to Laura. I locked the door before I gathered a Throw pillow and my blanket, and took off my shoes. I placed them and the Velvet bag of Digiyen besides the couch, and found myself tucking myself in.

And my eyelids, fell.

[Haruka Haruda][Going to search for Aoi]
------------------
After I finished the Raumen, the Datamon came back with 3 milk shakes. He looked sorta depressed that there was only 2 of us now, but he smiled when I offered him the extra milkshake.

"I like your new playmate, Lopmon!Good choice!"Datamon said, gulping the milkshake like it was the only thing he drank all day..
I looked at hiim while he finished when I just started. He giggled a little, and ran off to run some more customers.

"Haruka..Can I use your D-sense for a second?"Lopmon asked,"Pleasie?"

"Fine."I said blankly, sliding it over the table as I sipped my shake.
I looked at her with curiousity as she shook it around, looking for the button..."The button's on the side, you know."

"Oh!!"She said, like she knew it the whole time.She pressed it, and made a straight line. A Holographic map popped up, and Dots started to go around, different colors..

"Hmm..This color wasn't here before.."Lopmon said,"Right near Primary Village." I got up, and went around to her side of the booth.
"You're right, Lopmon.."I told her.'A new kid!'I basically squeled in my mind. But somewhat..I was afraid too..Was she evil?

"The only way to check out if she's evil or not is to go."Lopmon said,"Before the others do."

Lopmon pressed the button once more, and the map closed out,"Primary Village is just a 4 hour walk, 3 hour ride there...And with your scooter.."

"Fine..I just gotta make sure Satoshi is alright. I'll leave him a note.."I said.I got my D-Sense back, clipping it around my belt. I finished my milkshake, and grabbed my Scooter. I got Lopmon back on my head, and started to walk out, untill I felt a cold presence next to me..

"Oh..hey.."It was a Snow Agumon. Phew..no one evil. I looked into him as he examined me.."I was going to go over to talk to you 2, but you got up before I could!"

"Anyway, you really look like someone I knew."The Snow Agumon looked over my again, and snapped his little claws,"You look like Akina Minamoto!"

Wha...That was my mom's maiden name. And Akina was her first...My mom was here??!??Somewhat, it didn't suprise me. I remember..

<
I guess it was like a January of Last year. It was cold out, so my mom would make Kimono's and make Hot Chocolate a lot. She would also work on some script's for the VA's, and some basic storyplots when she drank the hot choco..

"Aiymee..Come on...it's my GBC!!"I had yelled, chasing Aiymee through the house as she taunted me, hanging my Pink GBC in the air as she ran. Our house was super big. My dad found kicks in it, and would hide Aiymee in the Master Bedroom's Closet.

"Aiymee..come on..It's soo not funny now."I said, peeping through the Crack's in each door..

Then I stood upon mom's Office. It was also a little workout area where she would do thinks like work out or stuff.It was forbidden to peek in..But I felt my self wanting to..

"Of Star's and Sky!!"I heard a shout, and the door from that room to the outside. I opened the door completely..and there was the most beautiful thing I ever saw. A Angelic LadyWolfmon, full armour..works..

I felt it's eyes creep upon me, and I slammed the door, running to the kitchen..

"Digimon...are reall.."


>

"Well..Thanks."I told him,"But I'm sure I have no clue on who you speak."
"But Haruu"Lopmon said before I placed my hand over her small mouth..

"Well..I'll get to you later.."The Snow Agumon said, and I walked off out of the Diner, with Lopmon on my head..
"She's your mom. I know"Lopmon said. I was almost in full tears..I missed my mom. I wanted out of this horrid world..the world that seperated me from my normal life.

So, we walked to the hotel. At the desk, I wrote a little note with the hotel's pen, and it said,'Went somewhere..I'll meet up with you guys later..Perhaps."

So, I went up to the room, and unlocked the door. I saw Laura and Satoshi asleep, Laura was wayy calmer that Satoshi. He seemed to restless...Hawkmon mustove came in, he was sleeping besides the couch where Satoshi slept..

"Sorry for leaving you.."I whispered, and placed the note on the entable besides the couch..

And without a word, I left for Primary Village.With Lopmon, ofcourse.



Don't follow her..^^k?

^~^~^~^~^~^
Satoshi seemed to just plop down on the couch with out much complants about the sleeping arangements. Myself I found a semi-comfortable position on the Laz-e-boy thingie and pulled the blanked up to my neck, finally drifting off to sleep.

What seemed like just mere seconds later I awoke to some one closing the door, did that person that I gave the card to come in, I hope she was okay and all, she seemed so lonely, and in this place you need friends. I began to fall back asleep again when I heard some moaning, followed by a jumble of words, and the sound of someone moving around alot.

I decided to get up to investigate the noise, once my feet touched the floor I immediatly regreat it. It was so cold in the room, I could even see my breath, and my legs were allready getting heavy from the fridged tempertures with every step I took. Finally I made it over to the source of the sound and found Satoshi tossing and turning in his sleep.

"Satoshi" I wispered nudging him once.

No responce

"Satoshi" I wispered again this time nudging him a couple of times.

No Responce.

I bit my bottem lip worried about what I could do, how I could help him. He could be getting sick I mean this room was getting really cold, and he could of caught something. I looked around the room to try and find something to help warm him up. Then I remembered the blanket that was still on the Laz-e-boy, he needed it more than I did. I quickly scampered back across the room grabed the blanket and hurried back, to drape it over Satoshi and the blanket he allready had on him. With two blankets he had to keep warm.

Slowly the moaning began to stop, and his tossing and turning slowed. Confident that I did the right thing I walked back to bed and layed back down on the Laz-e-boy. It was so cold in here, I grabed my pillow and curled up around it in the middle of the bed to try and keep myself warm. I continued to shiver from the cold and maybe sneezed once or twice as I drifted back to sleep.

"Daddy dance with me" I giggled running back from the CD player after putting another song on from my new CD.

"Okay" Daddy coughed, struggling to rise back up to his feet while mommy glared at me.

"You better stop doing that Laura, or you might kill him" Mommy snapped at me, while Daddy let me stand on his feet and we danced to the music.

"Oh, C'mon the doctor said that if my condition didn't worcen I would be fine" Daddy replied raising me into the air and twirling me around a couple of times before landing me back on the ground.

Mommy just glared back at him and left the room, the song finally ended and daddy sat back down. He looked exausted and he was sweating badly. He reached down deep into the chair, into a secret pouch and pulled out a toy, it looked kindof old and the colors were faded but it looked like a toy from one of those new cartoons.

"Show me Ashieyu and Kioshi" He told the toy, the screen flickered a few times and finally displayed two small people, one was about as old as mommy, the other a little bit younger than daddy, they were both like the size of small toys.

"Who are they daddy?" I turned and asked him. He didnt respond, he just remained in a trance, slowly he reached out and touched the image of the girl, gently. All of the sudden a hand came down and scooped up the toy.

"WHAT IS THIS?" Mommy screamed in a rage. "Is that your girlfriend?" She asked throwing the toy against the wall, breaking it into a million pieces. Daddy just looked shocked and saddened.

"Get to bed Laura" Mommy yelled grabing me by the hair and throwing me on to the ground. I crawled back to my room, turned off the lights and watched from my door as mommy screamed at daddy, she screamed for so long.

Later that night I opened my door slowly so that I wouldn't wake mommy, I tip toed past her room, into daddy's room where I could hear ragged breathing coming from the other side of the door.

I opened the door and stepped into the white hospital room, Satoshi layed on the bed with tubes going in and out of him while a pretty woman nealed by hisside. Atleast I thought it was Satoshi, the person looked like him, and in my heart I knew it was him. I walked slowly over and touched him on the forehead, he was freezing cold.

"He's cold why is he cold? I just put a blanket on him" I asked the woman who rose to her feet and looked at me strangely.

"I need to find that blanket, Satoshi's cold, Satoshi's cold" I said over and over again as I began to search the room, the woman came over to try and stop me but I just shook him off and continued to look.

"No, I need to help him, he's cold, he's cold" I screamed again pushing myself off of her and into two very powerful arms. I felt a small prick and my eyelids started to fall.

"He's cold" I wimpered as I feel asleep again, this time to wake back up in the hotel room.

[Satoshi Takinowa][I love meh gobble gobble.]
----------------------
<Satoshi's dream>

The sun, bright..Digimon was everywhere.It was like Tama Market all over again.You saw a digimon buying something, another digimon selling something. Same old, same old.

But the setting of my dream was that of a hill, one close to a abandoned hotel and the markets. The wind blew on the grass, and the sun was near the time to set.It created a beautiful scenery..

I looked around for anyone, and I saw Laura, Haruka, Kenichi, Morigan and David wasn't so far away...I looked around to see if I could see anyone else, and I found myself. Fighting stance, looking to the ground. I had my Sword in both hands..I want over to Haruka, and said..

"Hey.Sorry for before and all."I told her. But she seemed not to even see me at all, or hear me.I walked over to Laura and said the same thing, no answer....

"I...love..you.."The other version of me said, finally looking up at Haruka.He smirked, and made a mad dash at her, his sword looked like it was ready to strike.

Haruka placed her scooter up infront of her to block his blow.His blank eyes looked at her as she read them, and somewhat let a gasp out. He took that moment to put for force in his sword,and made the scooter fall. He then continued to slash At Haruka, making her bleed. Her clothing seemingly got blood on certain spots..

"Stop this!!"I heard a small girls cry. It was Laura. Haruka fell onto the grass. The boy stopped in his track's, and then, looked to the groud, his smirk fell to a plain frown.It looked like he was waiting for something. Time seemed to stop, as he just stood there..

Then, his head jerked up. He looked at Laura with the Biggest Smirk I've ever seen. He then got into another fighting stance, and ran for Laura.

So, I ran. I ran to go infront of Laura and take the blow. He looked like he was enjoying this, and he yelled.."I LOVE YOU!"

"Please...stop saying that.."Laura said, a tear rolling off her cheek. And then, he hit. Everything besides me and him disappered. The sword went through my entire midsection. I gasped for air as I coughed up blood. He then looked at me..His eye's were blank. No pupils, just a field of Red.

"I'm much stronger than you,"He said,"But we are one in the same..."

I looked at him..he was me?I then saw Laura and Haruka on the floor. The wound I had vanished,and I was looking at the other me.He looked up, and Kenichi punched him hard..

And I felt a stinging sensation...That's were I got the bruise from. The other me Fell onto the grass, his sword retreated. I closed my eyes, trying to get out of this dream...

The other me muttered something before I left..

"Your a monster."

[Kioshi Wakami]

Jun Wakami [Parent Already?]
----------

I sighed softly, ignoring the whole conversation between the two youngsters and the rest of the group. It felt like I was the oldest one here, perhaps I was. At the age of 17, almost 18 and a highschool senior, I felt like I was sent to a Middle School as a student/teacher aid. I just felt.. you know.. out of place.

A wind blew by, making it a little chilly. The others continued to talk to eachother before both the little girl and other boy walked off towards a hotel. I quirked a brow. How much of life do they know? How much trouble have they had to go through in the real world? It angered me slightly, at how young and naive the kids were. I felt tainted by age, by thoughts and by past experiences. Watching the two kids intangle their fingers together confused me. Did they really know what love was? How could they? Have they ever had their heart truly broken?

I blinked a little, snapping myself out of the daze I was falling in. I kept my hands burried in my pockets and turned around on the heel of my shoes, walking to the hotel myself. I never got a room since I just arrived not too long ago, so it would be good to get one now.

My feet clacked softly against the dusty road as I wandered to the hotel. I couldn't seem to snap out of my daze of thought. It tended to happen when I was left alone without my friends, my classmates. It reminded me of my father, well... one of my fathers. Kioshi. He was always so silent, he was there when I needed him but other than that he mainly kept to himself. My other father, Sorata said that he never got over the things in his childhood. The stuff his own father used to do to him because of what he was, however I never thought that was just it. You could look into his golden eyes and see the shattered fragments that they were created out of. He was withdrawn and lost in himself.. kind of like I am now. No, I don't get depressed that easily, more like angry. I was angry at people's close-minded thoughts about anything that wasn't "normal", like me having two fathers without a mother. However, I'm not shunned for it anymore. In Shinto Ryu Highschool I'm the "popular" kid. Most likely it's because my father is the big voice actor for Digimon.

Hn.. Digimon.. I thought while handing the money over to the hotel clerk, getting my own room. I grabbed the keycard, a bit puzzled as to how I got here without really realizing it. Slowly I walked up the stairs and entered my designated room. There wasn't much, just a single bed, a tv and a bathroom.

With a little huff, I flopped down on the bed and took out my egg.

"Digimon..." I muttered.

"What kind of Digimon are you? I hope you're something cool, maybe a dragon or even some cool reptile!" I smiled at the possiblilities. Being me, I was SURE to get an awesome digimon. I stood up off the bed and grabbed one of the pillows, setting it upon the tv, making a soft area for me to lay the egg down. It seemed like ever since I got her I never really had time to look over the things I had. Kind of like my digivice. It looked more like a keychain to me, but I noticed the small button to the side and the colors. It was black, but the rim around the vid screen was a bright yellow. I wondered why I got these colors and I wondered if they meant anything. According to the youngsters with their digimon, it seemed to represent their element or whatever. Black and Yellow... it first reminded me of a bee. Could I be insect? Nah.. that didn't seem much like an element to me.

Water is blue.. Fire is red... Air is white.. Earth is green. What's yellow? Electricity? ...Perhaps.

"I don't have time to think about what element I am." I grummbled. It was time to get serious. I was the adult of the group so it was my responsibility to take care of these little twerps. I had to make sure everyone was okay. But first things are first. I'm sure most of them have shelter for tonight, but what about food? What about first aid?

"Being little brats I'm sure they'll wind up tripping and scraping their knees." I laughed. The only problem was, was how we were going to get all of this stuff. I didn't have money, and their money, if they had any, wasn't going to last long. Quickly I grabbed the key to my room and rushed back outside and started to walk along the streets. There were pubs, casinos, bars, and clubs all around. There was also what seemed to be a mall.

"Perfect!" I cheered as I rushed towards it. Not only were malls the traditional gathering place for hot chicks, it was also the place to buy a lot of cool and hip things. First of all, I needed a job. Something short time, because I doubt we'll be here long, that also pays well, and just my luck there was a little boutique hiring.

"Hello." I said, looking at a Palmon wearing hip clothes and jewelry.

"Hello!" She chirped. "How may I help you?"

"I'm looking for a job. A short term one, just to make a little money and I saw that you were hiring." My face became stern and serious, though I doubted it really changed from that in public.

"Do you have an application?" The Palmon stated while hanging a pair of jeans onto a rack.

"No. I don't think I'll need one for working a few days. How much will I make?" the digimon nodded and pointed to the register.

"Do you know how to work those?" I gave her a monotonous 'yeah'. "Great. Then you can help out by ringing up customers. You'll make 600* digiyen an hour. You're a human aren't you, a cute one at that." she giggled, still organizing the jeans.

"I heard that the humans were coming again to save the Digital World. Those three Celestrials never let up." I looked at her silently while taking in this information. Again? Humans were here before? I shook my head, getting back on track.

"When should I start?" I asked too softly.

"Right now will be great. Just take one of those pins and write your name on it so people can address you." I simply nodded and headed behind the counter. The pins were pushed back within a bag. Pulling one out I scribbled my name on it in kanji (Japanese Characters) and romanji (using the alphabet) stating 'Jun', with a near by marker.

Quietly I worked with the customers, ringing up their items and telling them the price. That is pretty much how it went through the night. I suppose Las Mesa didn't sleep either.

=============
*It is roughly 100 yen to every 1 american dollar. So 600 yen is pretty much 6 bucks an hour, minimum wage.

Is Jun really the oldest?

[Gladiator]

Morrigan
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Morrigan looked at David with some embarrassment. This always happened when he gambled his earnings with others. Something bad just had to happen.

"Nevermind that," she said, slightly cross, "Just cash in your winnings and we'll buy some food that will last us awhile. We'll be stuck here for some time."

David arched an eyebrow, Morrigan did the same.

"Well, alright," he said in partial defest. He walked toward a passing Agumon for directions before heading off toward another casino. Morrigan followed David in close pursuit, making sure that he didn't try it again. Neither said anything to the other for some time.

"Well," David said, "Let's hear it."

For a moment, Morgan was wondering what her cousin was talking about.

"Hear what?" she asked.

"What's on your mind," David turned his head toward her, "Something's on your mind, and I want to know what it is."

Morrigan sighed, "I'm concerned." Both of them paused to listen to the background of Las Mesa. It was David's turn to be confused.

"Bout what?" Morgan gave David a look of deep depression.

"About all of this. We're being stupid," Silence. No rebuttal from her cousin.

"No doubts there, we all keep splitting up when we should be sticking together. No telling what will happen to us when we're alone and exposed," David finally said. Morrigan turned her head to look at some passing Digimon. She rubbed her right arm in extreme worry.

"I'm also concerned about you," she said, causing David to choke, "It's only been one-two days and you seem to be getting into worse and worse shape."

Silence...

"David?" she turned back to see that David had dissappeared. He didn't leave, nor was anyone blocking her view. He simply vanished. Morrigan started to get frightened, something she wasn't use to. A slight chill went up her spine.

"Aw, dammit!" she shrieked as she heard David's voice come from the other side of her. Not thinking, she pulled out the rod from her bag and slammed it into David's head. A loud banging sound could be heard.

"DONT DO THAT!" she yelled at her younger cousin. David simply rubbed the top of his head in pain.

"I can't help it," he responded, hurt, "It's not my fault."

Morrigan lost her self, "You mean...you actually do vanish." David shook his head.

"Not quite," he explained, frustrated, "You see, we're not actually here..."

Morrigan raised an eyebrow, "What do you..."

David cut her off, "No interruptions. Let me rephrase, we have a physical presence here. The thing is, we're only here mentally, or spiritually if you believe that. In our home world, we're at the hospital in some kind of coma. I am one of the few, if not only, people who have not yet fully crossed over into this plane of existence. Occasionally, I slip back into the real world. Not far enough to see anything, but far enough to know what I know. Most, if not all, of us are here spiritually."

Morgan was silent. She didn't know whether to believe this or not. On one hand, the whole thing sounded whacked out. On the other hand, wasn't everything else? He did know about this whole Digital Realm thing.

Morrigan remembered something, "So, what do you know now?"

David frowned, "Well, it wasn't as clear as before, but Ark and Jason mentioned a missing girl, Haruka. She's related to about two other people in a coma. Any idea who she is?"

Morrigan nodded, "It might be the pink-haired girl. I've just about figured out the names of everyone but her."

It was a quick trip to the casino, and through the nearest supermarket. With all things gathered, David turned to Morrigan.

"Do you want to find everyone else, now," David asked, "fearless leader?"

FWANG! Morrigan hit him on the head for the sarcastic comment, but otherwise agreed. She pulled out the Digivice that she carried.

"Let's find one of the Digimon in our group. I want to know how to work this."

[Arnen]

Um, can't post right now; busy fixing my site (stupid thing went down last week)... But, um, I'm working on a pic of Kari... It's not very good, but I'll probably have it up as soon as I can finish & scan it. *will post later*

[Haruko]

Satoshi Takinowa[Depression starts...now.]

I immediatly shot up, waking up in a cold sweat. I had 2 blankets on me two. I found my hair was very wild, I probably tossed and turned a lot last night. I got my blankets off, and looked over to where Laura was.She wasn't there though, so either she already woke up, or something.

So, I went over to the Bathroom. I took a shower, and got myself dry. I then got changed into my clothing, which seemed to feel like new. I looked around in the bathroom to find a comb and a toothbrush.I finished off, and opened the door...

I looked over to whre Laura was supposed to be, and their she layed again. I quickly got my shoes on, and looked over at her..

"I'm a monster."I muttered, finish tieing my shoelaces. I woke up Hawkmon quietly, and took the velvet bag. I wrote a quick note, saying "Went out for supplies. Don't try to find me, k?"

I signed it, and opened the door. Hawkmon quickly walked out, and I did the same, making sure I had everything.I looked at Laura a few times, noting her eyelashes moving up and down. She was waking up, so I had to leave fast. I closed the door quietly, and made it down the elevator, out of the hotel..

"What's with the 'I'm a Monster" crud?"Hawkmon said, looking at me. I was looking down at the ground as I walked.It was bout mourning time.

"Come on!!Answer meee.."Hawkmon begged. I looked at him softly, moving my head slowly. He looked at me strangely..I felt soo weird. That dream seemed like reality, and something told me that it did happen.

"It's just..I hurt Laura and Haruka in Tama Market. Really bad."I told him, in a low voice,"And I basically...went beserk. I was like a monster."

"And in sense, I had no control over what I did. But I should've fought for control."I told him,"So I am a Monster."

Hawkmon looked at me, and then looked at the ground. He sighed a lite sigh as we came to a Supply shop.I looked around quietly, seeing if they had what I needed.

Nothing that I needed or wanted was in their. The Floramon that was inside just looked at me strangely, like if I was a alien.

So, Me and Hawkmon continued to walk untill we got to a small fountain. I fixed my glasses around, and sat down around the edge, looking and listening to the water that flew from the Digimon's mouth into the Main fountain part. Hawkmon continued to look at me with concern..

"There you are!!"I heard a shout. Laura. I looked at she began to come over to where I was. Did she know how much of a monster I was? Shouldn't she want to be away from me?

"Oh..you."I said, lowly. She sat down next to me, and Alpha Magnetmon ran after her, catching up as she sat down..



Haruka Haruda[On the way to Primary Village we go.]

We walked out from the east side of Las Mesa, since that was the closest way to Primary Village. I then got my goggle's when Las Mesa was borderline with the horizon. I got my Scooter unfolded. Lopmon, who was on my head, looked and pointed straight..

"That way. I know the way there, so It should be a easy trip,"Lopmon said,"Anyway..."

"Thanks."I smiled at her. She smiled back, making a thumbs off sign.
"The wind is week, the sky, a everblue!It's time to leave..Yes yes yes!!"Lopmon said, making a bigger smile. I pushed off on my scooter, and we were fastly off.

Time flew by. I guess 30 minutes past by before we saw our first sign. By then, my legs were burning from being on the scooter so long, but it was the quickest way there..

"Primary Village, 1 and a half hour's way. Straight."The sigh read. I sighed, and told Lopmon,"After 10 more minutes, no more scooter."

She sighed, but reluctantly agreed. I pushed off once more, and My scooter went off, the wind blowing in my hair. Lopmon was hmming a song, one that I didn't really know. She just really seemed to enjoy it..

"Every single digimon life has started in Primary Village. A Swanmon and a Angewomon take care of all the eggs and hatched baby digimon."Lopmon said,"I came from there myself!"

[Thargor]

Meh, fell asleep yesterday and didn't post... =P

Kenichi Tanaka
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The group had seemed to disband of its own accord, leaving Laura (older), Aunie, and myself were left standing in another suite of rooms. There was a bit of chit-chat going on, but I felt a bit detached, as if we were missing something. My attention was drawn to my D-Sense, my fingers idly touching its surface. The black base with the red rim gleamed like new in the light of the hotel. It had felt somewhat heavier since I had gotten the Earth orb, filled with more purpose. I just needed to know what kind...

"Where is everyone Kenichi?"

I looked up idly from the green chair I was sitting on. Laura had jerked up wildly from her chair, and Aunie gave him a speculative look. He seemed to have just materialized from the shadows of the room, the sound of a window or a door opening wasn't present.

"Everyone seems to have gone on their own direction Rigiamon... How was your talk with Hawkmon?"

Rigiamon narrowed his eyes at the news. "Very enlighting to hear another perspective on what has gone on so far... But this is disturbing. The group is not cohesive so far for you all just to leave each other at the drop of a hat. It could make us all very vunerable, and leave us weakened. The Lunars can and will take advantage of that..."

I nodded slowly, "Sounds like a good idea. I'm also feeling weird about staying here like this... It's like I want to get out of this place as quickly as possible."

Rigiamon nodded at this, "Yes, the sooner we move on the better. We cannot afford to remain here, just you guys being humans are drawing a lot of attention."

He looked over to Laura, then eyed Aunie. "I know that we have a few digimon on our side including me... Hawkmon mentioned you had a digimon Auniyailia. But he couldn't recall what it's name was. Where is it?"

At Rigiamon's question, I furrowed my eyebrows as well. I couldn't recall her digimon's name... Had I heard it before? I kept my eyes locked on Aunie's, curious to see what Rigiamon's plans were...

[Roy Karrde]

Laura Lutz
^~^~^~^~^~^
"Oh...you" Satoshi replied as I ploped down on the bench next to him and began to swing my legs back and forth, while Alpha went off to go do something.

"So were you able to sleep okay? I gave you my blanket becuase I was worried about you" I chipped in wiping my nose, I didn't feel too good since last night and probley had a cold from sleeping in the cold.

"Laura..I...thank you" He replied trying to find the right words.

"Are you okay?" I asked looking over and studied him, he looked so sad, like he was about to cry. He didnt even look at me, and when he noticed that I was looking at him, he turned away.

"Did I ever hurt you? Physically, with a sword?" He asked. I bit my lip and looked away I didnt want to answer, and I found myself rubbing my neck where the cut had happened.

"That's what I thought" He said coldly.

"No, it wasn't you it really wasn't it was my fault really, it was, and it's over now, it wont happen again" I told him, trying to convince him that it was my mistake that had caused all of this.

"Laura" He said softly, putting a hand on my leg to help him stand up, he kept his back to me once he got up, I just watched him with curiocity of what he was going to say next.

"I dont want to see you again, ever, I want you to stay away from me, I dont even want you to come near me" He told me slowly. I felt like the whole city had come up and slapped me in the face, I almost tumbled off the bench in disbelief, what about the kiss, the holding hands, did it mean nothing? He was allready walking away when I began to recover, I quickly ran to catch up with him.

"I'm sorry, it was all my fault, it really was, just dont do this please" I begged him, touching his arm. He shook me off and began to walk a little quicker. We were the only ones on the street since it was this early so there was no traffic.

"Please, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" I said over and over again this time I tried the back of the arm, I had to stay near him, if I let him go I may never see him again.

"STAY AWAY FROM ME" Satoshi yelled spinning his arm around with egnough force that when it caught me in the jaw, it felt just like he had punched me in the face. I fell to the ground, skidding a few steps. I had to put my hands out to stop myself from sliding any further down the pavment.

My face was allready stinging and I could feel the cold sting of blood drop down my cheek where he had punched me. I looked at him, with teary eyes and held my hands up so that I could show him, my hands were torn up, the skin in my palm was hanging in pieces and blood was allready starting to ooze out of it.

"I-I'm sorry" Satoshi quickly appologised and ran off at full speed. I tried to scramble to my feet but my leg hurt and I knew I had skinned my knees just like I had skinned my arms and cheek.

"Satoshi" I wimpered laying my head back down on the hard pavement, and just hoped the pain would stop soon.

[Haruko]

Satoshi Takinowa[Isn't great how thing's turn out?]

I ran. I didn't know where exactly I was running to, but I ran. Hawkmon held onto my back very lightly, it felt like he would fall off at any second.So I slowed down a little bit, but I still ran..

I didn't know what exactly I was running away from...Laura or my fear's?I mean..that dream gave me cold chill's when ever I thought of it. I feared I would do such a thing once again. And Laura...she didn't understand..I was trying to protect her for telling her we could never meet once again.

I stoped for a second, Panting. I looked around, I ran into a alleyway of probably downtown Las Mesa. I saw some weird Graffitti, some garbage can's. Hawkmon got off my Back, looking around..

"Go back to Laura. You hurt her, and although.."
"I'm a monster.."I said. Those words echoed in my head. It was in a monotonous voice.Over and over..

I looked foward, and my pupils swelled. I fell down to my knee's, and gabbed near my ear's. Hawkmon looked at me like I was going insane. All I could think of was those word's that were so..poisonous..

'I'm a monster-I'm a monster-I'm a monster-I'm a monster-I'm a monster-I'm a monster-I'm a monster-I'm a monster-I'm a monster' Was all I heard.Like a record that only knew 1 song.

"Satoshi..I'm worried."Hawkmon said.I looked at him, wondering what he was worried about..

I wanted to curl up inside. I wanted to go in fetus positon and stay like that. I also wanted to be in the warmth of a group. Beside's Laura. And Haruka, who seemingly left. I wanted happyness. All I felt was depression..

I got up, and dusted my clothing off. I looked at Hawkmon, and quietly muttered,"As far as I know it, I'm not fighting. Anymore."

"Atleast I should say thanks to Kenichi."


Magna Wiccamon-Venom Lucemon-Yami Seraphimon[w3h a11 1ik3 p13.]


I went back into my corridor after watching that boy's horrid dream. One part wanted me to stop it, but another part of me loved the torture he was going through. I looked around for something...well..something..

"Oh yeah!"I said, my big, green nose catching wind. I was going to create another digimon. Although my last creation wasn't a success, I knew this one will be..

So, I grabbed my trunk. I rummaged through it, and found the things I needed. A Chip of Greymon's skull, a feather off a Biyomon and Hawkmon. A Little Watch...like the one on a chain. The one I used as a Ultimate Digimon to Hypnotise other digimon..

I grabbed my caludron. It was boiling already with a digimon basis.I placed them in, and it started to boil madly..


<Yami Seraphimon and Venom Lucemon>


"Venom Lucemon"I clled over. He looked at me weirdly, but came over anyway. I waved my hand over the large, Purple glass orb. A Picture of one of the biggest city on this planet was shown..Las Mesa..

"We need to keep focus and not let those annoying brat's distract us."I told him. He nodded as he studied the town. His smile grew from ear to ear.

"I get what your saying. Send 3 ultimates to Las Mesa to capture and destroy it?"Venom Lucemon said..
"Exactly"I said,"We could gain new ally's. And from what I know, we would have the chance to capture some of those twerps."

"What would we need with them?"
"Trust me, friend...Trust me.Get Mummymon,Phantomon and Phelesmon out to Las Mesa as soon as possible."

[Yami Annika]

Aunyailia Vergere
-=-=-=-

I felt everyone staring at me, and my face and ears grew hot. The embarassed hot, not the blush-y kind. I felt Kenichi especially staring at me, and for the first time, I didn't look back. I didn't look at anyone. I kept my eyes down, as if my shoes had suddenly become interesting.

"I don't have a Digimon," I muttered quietly, using everything in my body language vocabulary to show that I didn't want to talk about it.

"You don't." Rigiamon replied, obviously not believing it.

"Not anymore..." I rested my chin on my fist, and gazed out the window, wondering when the inquiry would stop. There was silence. :Laura, the other one, the one I didn't know too well, looked somewhat interested in this conversation. However, there was no doubt that her thoughts were elsewhere.

There was silence, everyone who seemed to be interested was waiting for me to explain how one minute I could have a Digimon, and the next moment, not. I gave a pitiful shrug. "She wasn't mine, I guess." I continued. "Wasn't 'destined' to me, or something. So, yeah. Went to go find the one to whom she did belong." My eyes began to water, from the sun blazing in my vision, no doubt, so I closed them momentarily. I felt my head nod. "No Digimon." I confirmed and sighed, opening my eyes again and looking back at the group. Uncomfortably, I plastered a smile on my face.

"What was her name?" Rigiamon asked, its curiosity having no end. Kenichi looked highly suspicious still.

I blinked a few times, dazed. "Hoshimon. What does it matter?"

To Rigiamon, it obviosly did. Rigiamon's questions came to a standstill. Kenichi suspicions raised with his curiousity, and even Laura began to look mildly interested. I looked from person to person, a bit miffed. "Right then," I half-laughed, uncomfortable again. "Obviously it matters somehow." My voice got unnaturally quiet. "So am I a traitor again? Or all are these suspicions, again, just part of my imagination?" I smiled again, and got up.

"Where are you going?" Laura (older) asked. Curiosity again?

"Outisde." I answered brightly. "Need some fresh air. I guess I'm getting a little claustrophobic." I laughed airily, and waved goodbye. Before leaving, I paused near Kenichi.

"I trust you." I whispered, hoping only he would hear. "I don't have any suspicions toward you. I thought I had the same respect." Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Rigiamon. Without a second thought, I left, not looking back.

Once outside, I took a long, deep breath. Fresh air did feel nice, as opposed to questions and suspicions. Rigiamon was right about one thing, we did seperate too easily.

Down the street, I saw Laura (the young one). She was bleeding, and looked worse than she did when I last saw her. Concerned, I went over to her. "Laura?" I asked softly. "You alright?" She looked at me, and, close up, she looked even worse.

[Roy Karrde]

Laura Lutz
^~^~^~^~^~^
"Laura?" Laura?" Auny repeated over and over trying to get my attention. I wanted to reply, I really did, but my mouth felt like cotten, and her voice seemed so far away. I felt myself being scooped up, and my body was limp, I couldnt move, I couldnt do anything. I just lay there, being carried back to Kenichi's hotel room.

"Is she allright?" A tall girl asked when Auny walked into the door with me in her arms, I wanted to tell them everything. But I didnt want to hurt Satoshi, so I just kept quite, I didnt even know what to say. All I wanted to do was find Satoshi, if I could find him, maybe everything would be allright.

"I dunno, she's not speaking, and it looks like she hit her head pretty hard" Auny replied, showing Kenichi the marks on my face, the brused area where Satoshi had hit me, I could feel that area, it throbed with pain.

"Look at this bruse, it looks like some one hit her" Kenichi said touching the very tender area around the mark on my face, I winced from the pain, but I didnt say anything.

"Where's Satoshi, he never leaves Laura unattended not like this" Auny said. I wanted to jump up right there and say that he didnt do this, that it was my fault, I made him do this but I couldnt, my legs were numb and I just couldnt move. Auny looked around the group which non of them held any answers, so she just walked into the other room. Tucket me into the bed and placed a warm cloth onto my forehead. As a almost automatic responce I slowly closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep as Auny turned out the lights and shut the door.

Jun Wakami [Exhausted and back from Work]
--------

Six 'o' clock in the morning I left with 6,600 digiyen in my pocket. I would work there some more during the next time, getting some more money to bring with us, but for right now I had to buy some supplies. I entered a Supply Store and looked around. They had very little but I bought a few things anyways. First off was a back pack. They also had a mini first aid kit, some jerkey for the road, a canteen, flash light and quite a few batteries. It'd have to do for now. I jumbled all of the stuff to the front desk and paid the total price for it all, stuffing the equipment into the bag and putting the left over digiyen in one of the bag's pockets.

I tracked up the hotel's stairs and headed towards my room, getting passed by one of the other girls in our group who left one of the rooms. I quirked a brow and walked over to the room she left and poked my head in.

"Daijoubu desu ka?" I asked, wondering if everything was alright. The girl seemed a little upset. The others just looked at me and I quirked a brow. They were a silent bunch of kids weren't they? Or.. perhaps they didn't know what I said..

"Eh.. Are you guys alright? I've got some snacks for you all for the trip." Why was I getting so 'parenty' all of a sudden? My eyes fell upon Laura and my expression became serious once again.

"Anyways. If you guys get hungry, just knock on my door, room 235. I have enough digiyen for breakfast." and with that, I turned out of the room and headed to my own.

======
I'm having conflicts with acting out Jun properly again. Perhaps he'll get more cheery later on through the story. Oh yeah, 6600 yen is 66 bucks.

[Thargor]

Kenichi Tanaka
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I watched as Aunie closed the door to the bedroom, then came back in. Her behavior had been worrying... And I somehow couldn't get a fix on what she was getting at. I've had people angry at me, sad, lonely, irritated, but this didn't match. From foster home to foster home I had experianced all sorts of people, and from the low-lifes that usually hung out in the areas I was forced to live in. Her old behavior was much more familiar to me... This new personality baffled me.

"She's sleeping now," Aunie said, shaking me away from my thoughts. "I don't know how she got in that situation... Where could Satoshi be?"

I shrugged. "Our group really isn't acting much like a group at this point... Like Rigiamon said we are divided. What we need is something to pull us together. At least whatever hit Laura wasn't that bad, just really a scrape."

Looking to Aunie, I let out a little breath and spoke in a voice only she could hear. "Look, I am glad you think you can trust me, but you have to understand that I am a very careful person with those I consider friends. I don't know why you acted as you did before, and I... Well, my life has taught me to be suspicious. Don't let it bother you. Just remember, as long as you trust me, you have a reason to know that I trust you."

Aunie's eyes widened a bit, and she smiled. Her look towards me was very unfamiliar, but it made me feel quite odd indeed... Sort of warmer...

There was a knock on the door and Rigiamon reached out with one of his hands to open it. In from the shadowy recesses of the hallway, stepped Satoshi. His hair was plastered to his forehead, and his breathing was harsh. Hawkmon was on one shoulder, looking very much the worried digimon. I got up and looked him over, and he looked at me for a second, then turned his eyes down the floor.

"Uhh..Kenichi..Can I talk to you for a sec?" He said to me, his eyes still turned downward.

I looked at him for a second, then nodded. I followed him out into the hallway, and pushed the door partially closed. The bit of light from inside the room served to create a sheen on his glasses, and cover the rest of his face in a shadow.

"Kenichi, I'd like to thank you for stopping me back there..." He began, rubbing at the side of his head where I had knocked him out. "If you hadn't had stopped me, I might have killed somebody back there..."

"You don't need to thank me for that Satoshi. I did what I had to do in the situation, and it wasn't your fault anyway."

Satoshi shook his head. "No, it is my fault! I didn't fight it when it happened! I'm a monster!" His voice abruptly lowered and became sullen.

"That's why I've decided I'm not going to fight anymore."

I quickly took off my right glove. With my left hand, I quickly snatched Satoshi's glasses right off his face. He looked at me, startled. Then I punched him in the face. Satoshi flew back onto the ground, more through shock than the force of the hit, which I had pulled. He covered one of his cheeks, and looked at me with wide eyes. Hawkmon from the sidelines gave me a truly odd look.

"Why?" Satoshi said.

"Get up," I ordered. Satoshi numbly came back to his feet, and I pulled on his shirt, partially getting him off the floor for a moment.

"Now tell me, that hurt, right?" I said.

"Yes, it did," he said, a bit of annoyance coming into his voice.

"Now, when did it hurt more? Now, or when my fist first hit you?"

He paused for a second. "When it first hit..."

"Things hurt when they first happen. As long as you let time go by, the pain gets less and less. If you give up, then you don't give yourself time enough to heal! If you give up now, do you think you can ever recover from that? Do you think our group can recover from this?!"

He looked down at his feet. "But I didn't fight it..."

I pushed him back from me, and pointed a finger at him. "Well then, answer me this: How can you fight against something you don't know is happening?"

He was silent again. "I guess you can't fight it..." Hawkmon nodded next to him, and flew back onto his shoulder.

"That's right Satoshi, you can't blame yourself in this matter, we all have to continue on and defeat the-" Hawkmon was interrupted by the shattering of glass in the next room over, and the scream of the girls.

Wasting no time, I rushed back into the room, feeling Satoshi running behind me. My eyes widened considerably when I saw the large windows of the room were completely shattered, both Laura and Aunie backed into opposite directions from a digimon that was chuckling in the middle of the room. Rigiamon was by the door, a low growl emanating from deep within.

The digimon had a pair of dark wings lined in crimson red. Its face was a mask of more light red, two horns protruding like a devil's. In one hand it held a long pitchfork, and a spiked tail protruded from its dark armored surface. Its high pitched chuckling continued.

"Ha! Seems I have found the little brats first! I, Phelesmon will be the one to get the reward!" The digimon seemed to look all of us over, then looked strongly at Aunie. A light seemed to erupt from its hole eyes.

"First one to go will be the competition!" It screamed, as it turned both hands towards her. "Demon's Shout!"

"Get away from her!" I shouted back at the digimon. In my dash to get infront of Aunie, I caught a truly startled look from her, before the waves of violet energy ripped from the evil digimon's mouth. My D-Sense shrieked wildly, as stone covered my arms that were crossed before me, Aunie shielded behind me.

With a sound akin to fingernails on a blackboard, the waves of energy slashed and pushed against the stony surface that covered my arms. In what seemed no time, the stone began to get stripped away with the violent energy, and my whole body seemed to jerk wildly. Bits of the stone were completely stripped away, in which my arms started to bleed profusely. Then, with a slam, Rigiamon punched Phelesmon out of the way. The attack stopped, and panting I put down my arms.

Here and there, bits of stone were still visible on my arms, but the skin had been stripped off on many places. Blood was dripping out, making my forearms look like something that had come out of the barbeque.

I looked back at Aunie. "Are you alright?" She nodded back at me, then I looked back at the recovering Phelesmon.

"Get him Rigiamon!" I shouted, bringing up my D-Sense with one hand, ignoring the throbbing pain...

Arkana
--------------------------------
I stood on a small hill, overlooking a small village.
"What a quaint little place," I said as a sadistic smile crept on my face, "the perfect place for another attack! Wouldn't you say Jammon?" I looked over at my slimy little partner.
"Yes sir," he replied.
"Excellent." I looked back over to the village. I began to laugh softley.
"This is going to be so much fun!" I laughed, "Jammon! It's show time!"
"Jammon digivolve to...Slimemon!"
"Now go!!"

Note: the vilage Arkana's attacking is not far from where the heroes are. Just to let you know.

[Haruko]

Satoshi Takinowa[Another ouchie.]

"Get him Rigiamon!"Kenichi shouted. He brought his D-Sense up with his arm, obviously trying to ignore the pain. It looked like someone barbaqued his arm..

I looked at him as Rigiamon and Phelesmon started to attack each other. I wanted to know why he punched me again...

"Why did he.."I said, looking down and rubbing where he punched me. Hawkmon looked at me like I was dumb, but then looked like he remembered something, and smiled a little bit.

"Because..It's his job----"Hawkmon said, then shut his little bird beak,"Nothing..nothing.."

"Why is it 'his job'?"I asked Him. I paided no attention to the fight whatsoever..I felt something more evil coming close, anyhow.I could feel my left eye stinging like mad.

"I-uh-I mean't..Satoshi!You should go lay down..that punch must of been so hard that it's making you hear things."Hawkmon quickly gathered, shifting his eye's around franticly.

"You said, 'It's his job.'.I know you did. Tell me now."I told him,"Or I'll make sure no girl digimon come's within a 10 yard radius around you."

His eye's grew narrower, and said lowly,"I'll tell you later..Just please..don't do that."

My eye's then grew wider. I noticed Laura still asleep, a facerag on her forehead...Her scrape's stopped bleeding, but all the same..Her eyelashes moved up and down as the noise from Rigiamon and Phelesmon continued..
'Come fighttt Mummymon..'I heard a chilling voice in the back of my head. I looked around for the source..'I only want to fighttt you..Rooftop.'

I looked at Kenichi, and decided he was better off without my help. I ran out of the room, with Hawkmon holding my hand. I didn't want to fight..but I didn't want anyone to get hurt from this digimon..

I used the elevator and quickly made it to the rooftop.I looked around, the wind made my hair flow in it's breeze..

"So good to fight you..I shall fight you first..and capture you and the other's for my master."Mummymon said, coming out of a corner. I looked at him, my eye's flew with hatred...I knew of no other feeling now. I needed to make sure this "Mummy" wouldn't get his rotten hands on my..Friends.

So, I got my D-Sense out. I quickly made the 5 pointed star, and Hawkmon glew with a goldish color.He grew magnificantly, and became Aquilamon...

"So you can't interupt my fightt.."Mummymon hissed,"Snake Bandage!!"

A Bandage from his arm came outt, and flew towards me. Aquilamon wasn't fully evolved yet, he could only watch in fear..
My body was soon wrapped up on bandages, only a small space for me to breath. I couldn't get my sword out, or anything...

"We don't need a audience."Mummymon said, looking at me. Aquilamon was fully evolved now, and flew straight for Mummymon..

"Dark Fear!"Mummymon whispered. A Black Bandage came off his arm, and it wrapped around my head..With each time it wrapped around...I felt myself going asleep..

"Aquila..."I said, and I went asleep..Laying on the cold, metal floor of the rooftop..Leaving Aquilamon and Mummymon to fight..



Satoshi's one bigg mummy...^^;Don't worry...He'll be fine.

And Mystic...Don't attack Primary Village.

How come I'm never aware when this stuff happens? Oh, right, no AIM.

"So what did you get?" I asked, walking back to the hotel. Morrigan quickly looked through her pack.

"Mostly canned goods," she responded, "I also have some smoked meats, a portable cooker, some extra gas cans, that sort of stuff."

I frowned a bit, "Eh, how did you get all that stuff on my winnings?"

"I'm better at calculating the worth of yen than you are. Plus, I used your battered appearance to garner some sympathy from the cashier."

My frown deepened, "I don't appreciate it, but fine. What are you going to do about the cooker? I mean that stuff is highly dangerous, it's not like you can just leave that stuff in your pack."

Morrigan smiled at me, "That's why I packed them in the smaller pockets. That way they don't get jostled around too much."

"Temporary solution at best," I said, rounding the corner to the hotel.

It was about midway up to our destination that we heard a loud shrieking noise. Surprisingly, I didn't clutch my ears in pain. This could only mean one thing to me.

"Oh, god, that sounded like my sisters," I said, panicky. Hey, I'm the only boy in a family of four. One of my sisters is still a baby, I'm used to the noise.

"The others are in trouble," Morrigan nodded in agreement.

We were fortunate enough to have made it in the near the start of the battle to see the huge demonic Digimon. Aunie and Kenichi were in one side of the room, the older Laura in the other. I panicked slightly, I turned to see Jun had also noticed the commotion.

A deathly burning noise, those of us who could afford it turned to see Morrigan.

I was breathless, she was covered entirely in a purplish aura as two giant black fireballs were formed in her hands. I had never seen anything like this before. My chest throbbed painfully at the sight. A look in her eyes and I knew what would happen.

"Oh crap!" I said, "This is going to be bad!"

Jun turned to me, not impressed.

"You said that before, she didn't do squatt against that door."
"Yeah, WELL NOW SHE'S GOT FIRE POWER!" I yelled, this was no time to be doubting me.

Sadly, I also got the attention of the demon.

"More victims?" he said, menacingly.

Somehow, I doubt that matched the full menace of one maxed-out angry Morgan with powers a pyromaniac could only dream about.

"No, just your nightmare!" she screamed, hurling the fireballs at the monster. Inside, I wondered if we could pay for the damages inflicted on this room.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No I'm not implying she's that powerful. David's slightly exaggerating.

"Satoshi?" I asked groggily as I sat up in bed while the door closed shut. The hot pad slipped off my head, and came to a rest next to me on the bed. Slowly I got up and peeked out into the next room.

There was a massive battle going on, Kenichi looked hurt and the place was wreaked. Satoshi was no where to be seen, and I had to get out of there, it was too dangerous. So I quickly slipped out the back door and ran down the hallway, not looking back.

Down on the street below I found things much quiter, and it was still mostly empty allthough the all night partiers began to stumble home as the sun rose. "SATOSHI" I yelled at the top of my lungs as I retraced the path that we took, if I could find him, maybe, just maybe, he would forgive me for being so stupid.

"Satoshi" I yelled again, I was just about to yell a third time when something caught my eye, in the window of a glass shop hung a little crystal dove that looked just like the animals back home. I quickly hurried in and asked the Digimon how much it was. He took it down and placed it on the counter where I reached over and touched the smooth surface. It was perfect just perfect.

"How much is it?" I asked showing him all the money I had. The digimon quickly scooped all of it up and said that it was egnough. With a smile he handed it over and began to count the money I gave him.

"What are you waiting around for, do you want it engraved?" He asked when he noticed that I was just standing there. I looked up at him with hope in my eyes and nodded, he took the dove back and I told him what I wanted on it. A few minutes later he finished and I walked out of the shop with the dove in my hands.

Satoshi will love it, he just will and maybe if I say I'm sorry egnough he might forgive me, I told myself as I ran my fingers over the engraving which read: " Satoshi & Laura "

Mind if I take Forest?

Jun Wakami [Can't get any sleep..]

It seemed that just when I went into my room and got comfortable on my bed that screeching and explosions were heard from the other room. I groaned a bit and jumped out of bed, snatching my key card and hurried over only to be surprised at the demonic digimon shooting waves out of his mouth.

"Oh crap!" David said, "This is going to be bad!"

I turned towards him, finally noticing he was in the room and gave a little grunt, unimpressed with his comment.

"You said that before, she didn't do squatt against that door."
"Yeah, WELL NOW SHE'S GOT FIRE POWER!" He yelled, also grabbing the attention of the digimon. What a thinker.

"More victims?" he said, in a menacing tone.

"No, just your nightmare!" Morrigan screamed, hurling those purple fireballs at the monster. I too thought about how we were going to pay for the damage costs. I was sure that the Digimon owners were not going to be too pleased with our wreckage.

"Arrggh!!" Phelesmon growled as he recieved a few burns from Morrigan's fire balls of doom. I stood there, feeling rather hopeless and not knowing what I could do. I didn't have a digimon, yet Morrigan didn't either and she somehow got fire powers. Does that mean I could have some tricks of my own? If so, how do I activate them?

I fixated my vision at my hands, trying to let myself do whatever was natural to me. My brows furrowed and I invisioned static sparks flying between my hands, getting larger and larger. Soon I actually felt the electrical current flow between my hands and I glanced up to the digimon and followed suit after Morrigan.

"Raikiri~!!" I growled and charged forward. The electricity bolted out to the burns upon Phelesmon's body like lightning strikes, zapping him and making him screech out in pain again. Quickly I stumbled back and stared at my hands in awe as the bluish lines of electricity jumped around between them... How am I doing this? And why did I say 'raikiri'? My moment of thought was my doom as Phelesmon sent one of his attacks at me, slamming me up against a wall and shouting out 'Demon Shout!' in my face, letting those violent waves slice through the side of my face. I growled and gripped tightly onto Phelesmon's arms, letting the chi build up stronger and stronger into my hands, causing them to glow a bright light of electrical energy.

"Rai..kiri.." I snarled, the electrical current surging through Phelesmon's entire body, short circuiting his digital data and dropping me to the ground. He stumbled back in pain and blindly tried to attack another fellow chosen child.

"Nn..."

Hmm...Well..I never update the first page, so actually..There are no LSU's..I'm just Uber-Lazy. Forest if taken by Gladiator-David..^^Sorry

He... saved me? I kept blinking, surprised, unsure if it was real. Was this the same person whom I had met through him eavesdropping? The one who had thought I was a traitor? Yet, now, bloody-armed, and badly injured, he stood infront of me.

I jerked out of my thoughts, to see Rigiamon, Morrigan and Jun fight it out with the Digimon, now blinded. [OOC: At least... right?] In front of me, Kenichi was reaching for... what? A card? Instead, he froze. Puddles of his own blood soaked him, now, and the pain was obviously overcoming him.

"What is it?" I asked hoarsely, in a voice that was not my own, trying to get my voice above the sounds of the battle. He didn't answer, and he was shaking a little. And from all the pain, who wouldn't? I cautiously got up, and went to him, careful to stay behind him. "Do you need help?"

"The card..." He barely spoke through gritted teeth. "This has to end soon, and Rigiamon can't..."

"Digivolve?" I supplied. Kenichi half-nodded, as the chaos continued around us. He was right. Had Rigiamon digivolved, there would most likely be no room left. Examining him, I saw the pain was too great for him to move his arms, and therefore he could not use his card. Without quite thinking, I wrapped my arms around him from behind. One of my hands helped him steady the D-Sense, the other wrapped around his other, the hand holding the card.

"Quickly," I said under my breath. As forcefully as I could, I moved his arms in place so he could get ready to scan the card.

"Black Rapidmon!" He called, and with one jerk, the card went through the D-Sense. I'm not too sure what happened next. Maybe something exploded, I'm not too sure. I shut my eyes tight just in case something did explode. But when I opened my eyes, there was not much left. At all. The room... well, it didn't look too much like a room anymore. Or anything habitable.

I let go, and let myself fall back a few steps. "Things... went boom-y." I surveyed the room, allowing myself an inward smile at the thought of the bill. Everyone seemed to be steadying themself, or catching their breath, or tending to the many cuts and bruises. I bit my bottom lip, and realized that I, too, had blood on my hands, although not mine.

Few words were exchanged. "I'll go look for some bandages, or something," I offered, heading into the room where I had put Laura. After all, I doubt we could have found anything helpful in the room we were in, no matter how long we searched. I rummaged through the cabinets, but couldn't find a thing. Once I found nothing useful, I didn't bother to put anything back up, so, soon, the rooms looked somewhat identical. Finally, I just grabbed some bedsheets. Perhaps we could do something, anything with those.

Sheets in my arms, I went over to see if Laura was alright. Hopefully the sounds didn't wake her up... But what I found nearly made me drop everything. Laura was gone.

I came back in the room, feeling strange. My face showed emotions of being lost. "Laura's gone," I announced, as I absentmindedly, not really noticing, started wrapping a sheet around one of Kenichi's arms, to catch the blood, if anything.

"What?" Someone asked. I'm not sure who, but it brought me back into the present.

"I should go look for her." I realized outloud, normal-voiced again. "What if something attacked her? Kidnapped her? C'mon." Within a few seconds, I grabbed Kenichi's arm and started walking out. I hardly noticed who or what followed us.

Once we were outside, I let go of him. "We should split up," he suggested. "It would be faster."

"No!" I said, faster than I had intended. "Please. I've lost Hoshimon, and now Laura, and I don't want you to be next." He paused, then nodded. "Laura!" I yelled, starting off at a brisk walk. "Laura!" He half-echoed me.

After a few minutes, I started to become more normal again. My other conciousnesses seeped calmness into my system. I looked back at him, in his arms, and visibly winced.

"Does it still hurt?" I asked timidly, and he stopped calling Laura's name.

"A little," he shrugged. I realized it probably hurt more than he was letting on.

"May I see?" I reached out anyway, and took his wrists. "Hoshimon taught me this... It works on Digimon, at least." I smiled weakly. Inside, I wasn't very happy with my decision. "Sweet Dreams" I whispered inaudibly. Let him forget the pain, for now.... He watched me, carefully.

"I..." I looked up at him. "I want to thank you, for protecting me." Kenichi tried to respond, but I ended up cutting him short. "So, thanks." I smiled, and raised up. My lips were nearly to his cheek, as if to kiss him.

"Aunyailia!" I heard Laura yell, happily. I stopped short, and smiled. I turned around to see the ten year old girl rush at me out of a store.

"Laura!" I exclaimed, taking a deep breath, as my heart rate turned normal. "Oh, thank goodness. Where have you been?"

"In the store," Laura motioned back to the store, where she had just exited. "Look what I got!" She pulled out her gift, and I took it. It was, I must admit, pretty. A crystal dove, with something written on it. "Laura & Satoshi", I read silently to myself.

"What do you think?"

"Oh," I replied softly, smiling distractedly. "It's... It's lovely."



OOC: *rubs her own typing wrists* Owchies. Well, that only took me, like, an hour...

[Kioshi Wakami]

Jun Wakami
------

I don't know what exactly happened. A few minutes ago I was surging and electrical current through the digimon and in the next, everything was gone after a loud explosion. I had tackled Laura and Morrigan down instinctively at the 'boom', shielding them both from anything that could've flown around and hit them. Luckily, there wasn't. After the noise settled I sat up and looked around through one of my eyes, for the other had been forced shut due to slash marks near by along with other cuts slcing through the right side of my face. From the looks of it, everyone was pretty battered up except for a select few. Aunie had already ran off into the other room trying to find bandages, but came out with blankets instead.

"I have a first aid kit in my room..." I muttered, but she didn't hear me. She was soon gone with Kenichi to find the other little girl who's name apparently was also Laura.

"I'll be back in a few." I stated, a bit weary from the battle. I had stumbled out of the unlivable room and went into my own, only to grab my new backpack and rush back in the other one.

"If you've been hit come here. Perhaps there is something in this med-kit that'll help you." I sat down upon the floor and pushed rubble away for a clearing. Opening up the bag, I pulled out the white box and opened it up. Inside was medical creme, needles, thread, bandages and ect. for the basic med care.

Yes, Jun is currently blind in one eye. Whether or not it stays like that will be determined in the next post. I still have yet to see if I want it to. We'll just see how well it heals ^^;;

[Haruko]

Satoshi Takinowa[Your not my mummy.]

Everything was black and white. Like an old TV screen with static. I was standing in the middle of the street. It wasn't a busy day, I could not that because kids were playing in their front yards, Playing Soccer or tag. Maybe even a little bit of Freeze tag. I smiled..I was home again. These were the kids that lived on my block.

"Hey, Satoru...can I play freeze tag with you?"I asked. I went to the house 2 houses away from mine. It wasn't as big as our house, but it was still nice. I babysat him on the weekends, So we normally played freeze tag..

"Why would I want to play with a monster?"Satoru said, looking at me. He glared at me with eyes that spelt pure hatred..

This wasn't reality. It was a dream. A Nightmare...to be exact..I felt a tear roll on my cheek. I was the only on in color as all the other kids where in Black and white. My tear wasn't clear..only black...

"Oh?!?!"I said, looking up. Satoru vanished back inside his house. I looked back near my house, and spotted Aoi's. Our houses were the only houses in color. She stepped out, smiling. The sun gleamed in her hair..

"Oh,Satoshi!"She said. She didn't know I was a monster at all.That was a good thing, I didn't need her to know that. She ran towards me, her hair caught the sunlight, well..the white sunlight..to be exactly...

"Oh..Aoi."I said. I smiled a full smile. I wasn't in the digital world anymore, it was all a dream.Just a horrible dream. I didn't even have my glasses on!My cheek didn't hurt from Kenichi's punch.

Hey!Maybe there never was a Kenichi! Part of me said Kenichi existed..though...hurt.

She hugged me, and I hugged back, with a full smile. Her hair smelled like cotton candy, which is ok. She worked at the Convention as a cotton candy booth person...right..

"Aoi.."I smiled. She stopped the hug, and smiled back..

"Satoshi...I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!!MONSTERRR!!!"She yelled. What did I do? She didn't know what I did..none of these people did..

Suddenly, Aoi started to shreik. All the children did. They changed..and changed more..The whole scenery changed,It was like a black scene..

There stood in color, Kenichi-Laura(older)-Laura(younger)-Jun-Haruka-Aoi-David-Morrigan-Some kid with Black/Navy blue hair-Kari. All of them had evil look's on their faces, their eyes glew a red..

"Your a monster.A monster..Your a monster.."They all said, smirking.They repeated the phrase over and over. I fell onto my knee's and covered my ears. I then saw Laura(younger). She smiled a sweet..innocent smile.

She turned her back onto me, and said,"I never, ever want to see you again."She then came around, and swung a big one onto my cheek. I fell, and scrapped my cheek. I looked at her...

I deserved this.



Aquilamon[Fighting all alone.]

My eye's grew wider as I felt Satoshi drifting to sleep. He looked like a mummy, wrapped tightly in bandages that looked age's old.A Black bandage wrapped around his head, barely giving him any oxygen to breathe...

"What did you do to him?"I yelled, looking at Mummymon. He smiled, and looked at me..

"Only getting rid of our annoyance for a while. He might help me in destroying this city aswell."Mummymon told me,"If my master got him, I would get a huge raise,And it would help them. One less goodie goodie to be annoyed at."

"And they have no time to be annoyed at your so called "Partners""Mummymon continued,"I won't wrap you like a mummy like your friend here. I want a fair fight."

"Fine. If I win, Satoshi get's freed and..."I said. I looked where Mummymon was, and he disappered..

"Don't look behind you."I heard a voice from behind me. I flew up instantly as the last word, and he shouted:"Long Machine Gun!"

The gun he had on his right hand started to shoot of Multiple bullets. I dodged most of them, 2 of them hit my claw's. I glared at him slightly. He disappered again, this time over Satoshi..

"I don't play fair. I want my prize now."Mummymon said, picking up Satoshi..

"BLAST RING!!"I shouted. I aimed at Mummymon alone, but as the pink rings just hit the rooftop, becaue Mummymon jumped off the side, with my Partner at hand..

"I must..get...himmmm!!!"I growled, and flew down, gliding fast.



Don't worry..Satoshi-kun will get this under control...Hopefully..

"It's...It's lovely" Auny replied not even looking at the dove, she just kept her eyes on Kenichi who keped his eyes on her. If she didnt like it would Satoshi? Did I make a big mistake in buying this, would Satoshi hate me even more if I gave him a gift that he didnt like?

"Kari, c'mon we have a room here, and we could have a big party, in...what's left of the room" I yelled at her, waving my hand I guess Kari had never been to the hotel room last night, either one of them. I felt kindof bad for her since we all seemed to have friends here, and I had never gotten to know Kari, or tried to be her friend.

"Hey, what's that?" I pointed out causing everyone to turn, at that moment Mummymon jumped from the roof and began to free fall down towards the ground with something in it's grasp.

"That's Satoshi" I screamed pointing at the mummyfied body it was carrying. Everyone turned to look at me with crazy looks on there face.

"How do you know" Kenichi asked, I kept my eyes on the falling bodies, Satoshi couldn't die not like this.

"I..I just can feel it inside that, that is Satoshi, I just cant explain it, it's just a feeling" I explained. I tried to gasp, to find my breath, but I just couldnt I just held my breath and hoped that he wouldnt die.

"Auny we have to do something" I turned to her, we couldnt just let him fall with that Digimon, and if that Digimon was some how able to cussion that fall, then we would be unable to stop him from leaving with Satoshi.

"If you've been hit come here. Perhaps there is something in this med-kit that'll help you." Jun remarked, making way for the med-kit amongst the load of junk. I sat down.

"Eh, no thanks," I said, "All of my cuts and scrapes have already turned into scars. If you've got anything to help with that though, I'd appreciate it."

Absent-mindedly, Jun threw some creme at me. I thanked him and set to work. Morrigan walked up, holding her bleeding arm. She was in the middle of the fray, unlike me, so she did receive some damage.

I looked absent-mindedly through the window, this would be a long adventure. I took a quick look at the mess and grimaced.

"I think we should get out of here. If we're lucky, we'll avoid getting sued," I said, but so far it seemed that none of the other residents had noticed the whole ordeal.

My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of gurgling. I turned to see Morrigan was red in the face.

"Um, do you, perhaps, have anything to eat. I bought some food earlier, but I'm saving that for the long term."

Jun's face was unreadable, again, but otherwise agreed. I, myself, decided to join them. As much as I thought that Jun resented me, I could not pass up an opportunity for free food.

We were eating in his room, I was making the most of my eggs.

"So, what did you pack?" Jun asked, curious. As Morrigan opened up her backpack, part of me wondered how the gas cans didn't blow up when she was on fire.

"Mostly canned and smoked foods," she admitted, "A cooker, and gas cans. Obviously, we didn't think that far in advance, but you managed to cover some of the missing stuff. Now all we need is some water."

"Hm," he nodded. None of us were really feeling that talkative, so it didn't take too long to finish breakfast. This time, I decided to make the plan.

"Alright, so once again, we're split up. I suppose we'll just have to find them again," I suggested, no one said anything. They were all half-tired.

"Damn," I exclaimed, half-flippantly, "Am I the only morning person in this room?"

I'd gotten injured... Rigiamon had defeated Phelesmon and turned him into a card... Laura had gone missing... Then Aunie had tried to kiss me... Now this?! I could not possibly call this day boring, not in any sense of the word.

As the form of a Mummymon laughed and shot up into the air, I spotted Aquilamon diving down at him, but too late to catch the bound up Satoshi. There wasn't anything that I could-

Then I saw him. Rigiamon had leapt out of the lower window that once used to be our suite. Two of his hands still resembled the cylinder-like Black Rapidmon missile hands, but he seemed to be ok. The pain gone for the moment, I was free to jerk my arms in position. Pressing the button on my D-Sense, Rigiamon began to glow, and grew beneath the falling pair of digimon.

"Rigimon, get Satoshi from him!" I shouted at the D-Sense, hoping that somehow he would hear me in time.

The gargantuan Rigimon roared loudly beneath the falling sack of bones. His height grew to the street below before he even had time to fall. With one quick snatch of a hand, the wrapped form of Satoshi was in his grasp. Another hand moved to smack Mummymon in the most ungentle manner possible into the building across the street. In an explosion of glass and metal, an imprint was left there as Mummymon looked dazed.

"Finish him Aquilamon!" Rigiamon shouted, as he shielded Satoshi with his hands. With a screech, Aquilamon raced at Mummymon, his hostage gone...

I'll let you finish this Poli.

OoC: Could I maybe have the Light LSU? Like, maybe they got to the convention late or something?

"<Damn...>" I thought as I watched as the three Digimon battle. "<This sucks... I can't even do anything to help!>" At least it looked like the good guys were winning. I sighed, staring at the ground. I took the egg out of the pocket on myft calf, where I had put it for safekeepng, and just stared at it for a few moments. I saw my face reflected off the surface, and I frowned, brushing a dark lock of hair off my face. "When will you finally hatch?" I murmered, thiking aloud.

"Eh, no thanks," David responded to my request. "All of my cuts and scrapes have already turned into scars. If you've got anything to help with that though, I'd appreciate it."

Without thinking much, I tossed him a tube of scar healing creme. He thanked me and started to apply the creme to his scars. Morrigan walked up, holding out her bleeding arm. She too was in the battle so it was obvious she would've recieved damages as well.

Quickly I set to work, pulling out the gauze and medical creme, applying it to her cuts after cleaning it out with alcohol and wrapping the gauze around it, sealing it off with a thing of tape.

I had finished treating everyone else before I took some of the gauze and creme and applied it to my damaged face, the cottony gauze wrapping around at an angle, covering up my right eye that I couldn't see out of anyways.

"Shimatta..." I cursed softly in Japanese. The wounds to my face were somewhat severe and blood continued to seep through the cloth. Within myself I wondered if I would be able to see out of that eye again.

"I think we should get out of here. If we're lucky, we'll avoid getting sued," David spoke out. I didn't pay too much to the mess since I was still busy doctoring myself up.

A gurgling sound was heard and I looked up at Morrigan, the source of the food call.

"Um, do you, perhaps, have anything to eat. I bought some food earlier, but I'm saving that for the long term."

I kept my face stern and then faintly nodded. I shoveled everything back into the first aid-kit and stuffed it in my bag. We all headed back to my room without much complaints at all. We were all hungry, and I was exhausted, not having a blink of sleep yet. It showed too with the sluggish way I walked into my room and jiggled the door open.

I walked over to the TV and took my egg off of the pillow and placed it into my pack as well, glancing over to Morrigan's.

"So, what did you pack?" I asked a bit curious. Morrigan opened up her pack and started to go through it, showing me the different items.

"Mostly canned and smoked foods," she admitted, "A cooker, and gas cans. Obviously, we didn't think that far in advance, but you managed to cover some of the missing stuff. Now all we need is some water."

"Hm," I nodded. The room was silent as we quickly finished up breakfast and after I downed my eggs and whatever else there was to eat, I flopped down on my bed and groaned. Soon after I did, David started to voice out his plan.

"Alright, so once again, we're split up. I suppose we'll just have to find them again," he suggested. I was about to say something but sleep lulled me to a daze.

"Damn," David exclaimed, half-flippantly, "Am I the only morning person in this room?"

"You're not the one who stayed up all night working their *** off to get some money for all of us." I stated simply, yet harshly. I was obviously getting a bit cranky and little kids were not on my list to deal with at the moment.

"Like you said, we're split up so we need to wait for everyone to get back... before we head off to the next town.. We need to travel in a...." I spoke sternly and then slowly began to mumble. "...group." A soft sigh left my lips and I curled up on my bed a little more, just wishing everything would stop for a moment so I could get atleast a two hour nap before moving.
