First of all, I know this is short. It's like a prologue thingy, the next chapter'll be longer.
Second of all, WHY DO THEY ALL HAVE TO HAVE TWO NAMES?? I never know which one to use, the Japanese or the English. I like both. Any suggestions?
Third: MiyaYoli is Yolie, TK101 is TK. Complicated, I know. But I have faith in you.
Disclaimer: The cretins cloning and feeding, and I don't even own a TV. How could I own Digimon?
Disclaimer #2: I don't even own half the first disclaimer. Jesus. It's from a song. Of course I have a TV.
Takeru sighed as he plopped down in front of his computer after a long day at school. He was exhausted, and all he wanted to do was go to sleep. But like any normal teenager, he just had to go on aim first. Duh. It was practically tradition.
A few minutes after he sighed on, right when Takeru had started his math homework, a few beeps came from his computer. He clicked the mouse eagerly, deactivating the screensaver to see the flashing green and pink he'd come to associate with Yolie.
MiyaYoli: hey
Takeru was a little surprised; Yolie hardly ever went on AIM.
TK101: evenin
MiyaYoli: hey did you do the history hw?
MiyaYoli: assignment 7?
TK101: no
TK101: wait yes
MiyaYoli: could I see what you got as the answers? I wasn't there
TK101: yeah, gimme a sec
Takeru pushed away from his desk, rolling his chair over to his backpack, which had been thrown carelessly on his bed when he'd gotten home, right next to his hat and a sleeping Patamon. He reached in his bag, pulling out his planner. He checked the history secion...Assignment 7...the essay?! Takeru slid back over to the computer.
TK101: um...i cant type that much, yolie.
MiyaYoli:...isn't it on your computer?
TK101: no
MiyaYoli: you handwrote it?
TK101: god no
TK101: i used my moms, not mine
MiyaYoli: are your parents divorced? huh? if not, you must have your mom's comp. could you just send me the thing via email or something?
Takeru frowned. He didn't like Yolie's tone. But then again, maybe it was just cause right now he was just looking at words on a screen. That's all. Right?
Takeru stared a moment longer before typing.
TK101: yes. they are divorced.
He paused.
TK101: sorry i cant help.
MiyaYoli: oh
MiyaYoli: sorry about that
Takeru highly doubted she was, knowing her. But he had a reputation to keep up, so he let it slide.
TK101: no problem
TK101: i might still have the notes, i could bring them in tomorrow
TK101: but
TK101: nevermind, theyre all written in shorthand
Any other time Takeru might've felt a little bad about this, might've even have offered to translate for them, but right now he found he felt just fine. He couldn't care less if Yolie failed on the assignment -- no. That was mean.
MiyaYoli: can you like remember something about what you wrote?
Yolie, just drop it!!
TK101: umm
MiyaYoli: ok just tell me why people lived in the silk route
How about NO.
TK101: marco polo traveled the taklaman desert because it had gems in the rivers and all this rare stuff, and they got a lotta profit selling it to people
Goddamn Takeru. What happened to say no?
MiyaYoli: ok
That's the thanks he gets?
MiyaYoli: Despite the dangers, what made the journey possible and even bearable?
Oh. That's the thanks he gets.
She was really starting to get on his nerves.
TK101: i have hw!!
He glared at the screen for a moment, then sighed. He's such a pushover.
TK101: gems, and other stuff the cities had like exotic women
MiyaYoli: SO DO I AND I WAS NOT AT HOME FRIDAY SATURDAY OR SUNDAY UNTIL NOW! I have to do all of my homework starting now, YOU'VE had all weekend!
Takeru's fist curled unintentionally.
'Say no to drugs 'kay?'
Despite his annoyance he grinned as his school's principal's slogan popped up into his head. He'd said no to drugs before. It's a lot easier than saying no to Yolie.
MiyaYoli: God TK. just tell me! how hard can that be?!
Then again, this might be easier than he thought.
TK101: Yolie. No. Sorry, but that's not my problem.
MiyaYolie: TK!!
TK101 has signed off.
Takeru sighed, turning back to his math homework. Glad that's over, he thought.
Five minutes later a terrified Takeru came running into his brother's room, screaming bloody murder with Yolie hot on his trail.
Thanks for reading, R&R!! (and if you think I should use the Japanese or English names, please say so) .
