Episode 1 Reunion

Rika was busy in the kitchen getting ready to prepare some snacks for the big tamer's reunion. She got out a mixing bowl, wooden spoon, cookie sheet, and all the necessary ingredients for chocolate chip cookies. Just then Meko and Neko walked in with Renamon, Yinmon, and Yangmon. They had just finished training in the backyard. Then Renamon caught a whiff of something good.

"Mmm. That smells good." she said sniffing the air. "What is that?"

Ruki smiled. "I'm baking cookies for the party."

The twins started jumping up and down. "We wanna help! We wanna help!" they said simultaneously. Ruki giggled in response to the five-year-olds' enthusiasm.

"All right then," she said. "Go wash up and get started." With shouts of excitement the children went to go wash up. About an hour later, Takato came in looking tired from a long day at work. Guillmon was following beside him. They both stopped to sniff the air as delicious aromas filled the air.

"What's that smell Takato? It smells yummy."

"Smells like cookies." said Takato. They walked into the kitchen to see that it was covered in flour as if a flour bomb had gone off. "What in the world happened here?" He gaped at the sight, feeling completely taken off guard by the mess.

"Daddy!" shouted the kids in unison as they tackled their dad to the ground. Taken by surprise, Takato tumbled to the ground and was covered in flour by his now ghostly white children. "We helped Mommy bake cookies Daddy!" said Meko with excitement. Takato laughed at this. He started to get back up as Ruki walked over.

"I can see that. What happened here? It looks like World War Flour in here?"

Ruki giggled. "The kids got a little carried away with the flour." she said kissing him on the cheek and leaving a little white spot.

"The kids?" he said, noticing how she too was covered. She blushed in response to this.

"They started it." she said embarrassed. Takato laughed at his wife's childish antics. He shook his head before answering.

"That's okay," he said looking at his flour covered family. "You guys just go get ready to take a bath for the party. Mommy and I will clean up the kitchen." The kids laughed before running back to their rooms. Takato let out a sigh. "Those crazy kids." he thought. He turned to Ruki. "I didn't know you baked."

She smiled. "You never asked." she said. "It's my grandma's recipe. I used to make them with her all the time when I was little." Takato looked surprised.

"I didn't know you were the baking type." He said shrugging. He then smiled and they started to clean the kitchen together. "What time is the party starting?" he asked.

"6:30," she stated. "That's what the plan was."

"Oh yeah. I tried getting a hold of Ryo and Alice but no luck. I guess they're still exploring the digital world."

Ruki shuddered with anger at the mention of Ryo's name. "Why invite that prick anyway?" she asked.

Takato was surprised by the amount of venom in her voice. "Ruki, come on. You're not still mad at him are you? That break up was years ago. I broke up with Jerri but we stayed friends." She lightened her mood and smiled a bit.

"I'm sorry Takato, but he really hurt me." she said looking down. He kissed her and held her reassuringly.

"I know honey. I know."

A few hours later the doorbell rang and the tamer crew and their digimon all shuffled into the house. Just as Henry was helping a very pregnant Jerri into the house Takato walked up to him.

"Henry!" Takato said before grabbing his long-time friend in a bro hug.

"Hey Takato. It's good to see you!" There were happy greetings and laughter all around as the guests surveyed the party area. They all looked up to see a recreating of their old flag from their adventures in the digital world only this one said "tamer family reunion" on it.

"But we aren't family." said Kenta.

"After everything we've all been through together we might as well be." Takato argued with a laugh.

"Four years of Art College and you still can't draw." Kazu joked. Takato gave him a playful punch in the shoulder.

"Very funny Kazu. I only drew it like this, because it looked nostalgic like the old days."

They soon headed out side for a barbecue. Henry and Takato started grilling while the others talked or played Frisbee. Mako threw the Frisbee while Guillmon caught it in his mouth like a dog. Impmon was stuffing himself with chips, while Ruki and Jerri talked. They laughed and smiled remembering old times.

"Meko and Neko have really grown." Jerri said with her usual warm smile.

"Yeah, they grow so fast don't they? Speaking of which what have you decided to name your baby?" she asked curiously?

Jerri thought for a moment while she rubbed her swollen belly affectionately. "Well we've been thinking Colbe, since we found out it's going to be a boy."

"Colbe, that's a nice name." she said with a smile.

"Get while they're- huh?" Takato was then cut off by the beeping of his D-arc. "A digimon signal? But it's been years."

"Weird." said Henry studying his own D-Arc.

"All take care of it Henry. You just keep grilling."

The twins then chimed in with "Can we come to daddy please!" Their dad proceeded to give them a look that meant no way.

"No. You guys are too young. You're not ready."

They proceeded to give him the puppy dog eyes. "PLEASE!"

Takato's expression began to falter. He couldn't resist the puppy dog eyes. It was his one ultimate weakness, and the twins knew that. He finally sighed in defeat then looked over to Ruki For confirmation that it was okay. She nodded her approval.

"Okay you can come, but be careful and stay behind Guillmon, Yinmon, and Yangmon."

"Okay!" they said in their twin unison. Then they ran off following closely behind Takato with their digimon.

"Reminds me of us when we were that age. Right Mako?" said Ai with a giggle.

"Except back then we were the only set of twins."
