Disclaimer: I do not own the charecters in Tenchi Muyo and Digimon. I am only using them for this fanfic. Please do not sue me.
This story takes place after Digimon 02 (before all of them are grown up). The main charecters in this story are Taichi, Mimi, Tk, and Yolei. This is also a Taiora and Mimato's fanfic. I would also be using their given English name because that was how I was introduced to them. I hope you would enjoy it (this is also my first fanfic...hehehe). Oh yeah, here is the charecter's ages before I start:
Tai, Matt, Sora:19 TK, Kari, Davis, Ken:16 Cody:14 Joe:20 Izzy, Mimi:18 Yolie:17:
Chapter 1
Odaiba
"I should have expected this. What is Tai doing?"
The teenage boy is waiting impatiently in front of his house. He ran his hand through his short blond hair and look at his watch again. He was about to give the other boy another call when he hear his car coming. The teenage quickly put on his hat and wave at Tai. Tai slowed his car (a blue sports car) to a stop in front of the boy and open the passenger door for him.
"Sorry TK, said Tai. I got wrap up with something while I was getting ready to pick you up."
"It's alright Tai, said Tk. I kind of expected it. I don't want to sound ungreatful, but you got to break this bad habit. It seems like you are always late."
Tai gave TK a sorry grin as TK got into the car. He waited until TK was safely strapped before he started the engine. TK sigh as the wind blows softly on his face, cooling him off from the heat. Tai looks at TK and smile as the young boy started to relax.
"So...where was the place that you wanted to go to, ask Tai as he turns left to the next street."
"Oh, you know, reply TK softly, the house up on the cliff looking over the ocean. Its got the best view for sunset. I want to get a good picture of it and give it to Kari for her birthday. I remember walking with her in the mall, and she went crazy over a puzzle that have a picture of a sunset. I wanted to personally make this gift for her."
Tai laughs as he sees TK blushing. It have been two years when TK had finally won Kari's heart and to tell you the truth, it was not an easy battle. Davis wasn't about to give up so easily. However, many of the kids were quite surprise (even to the present day) of Davis reaction when TK and Kari told him about their relationship.
*Flashback*
"Davis," said Kari nervously. "I need to tell you something."
"What is it Kari," Davis ask. He look at TK and Kari as they stood there stumbling over what to say. He smiles at them.
"It's about you guys, right? You guys are dating each other, am I right, ask Davis." Kari and TK look shocked and ashamed as they nodded their head.
"Davis, said TK softly . I am sorry that we have not been truthful to you. We have been dating for a month now. It's just that...."
"I know TK, Davis interupted. I know that you guys don't wanted me to get hurt. That is why you didn't tell me."
"Actually, I was kind of scared you are going to make a big racket out of this and attack TK, Kari said smiling."
"Hey what is that suppose to mean, yelled Davis. I wasn't going...Hey, what are you guys laughing about?"
"Davis, giggled Kari. I was just joking. However, I am surprise you are taking this so well. I guess you have grown up a lot.
"Well,things change. Eventhough you did not choose me, Kari, I just want you to be happy. And if being with TK makes you happy, then I am happy for you.
"Davis, whisper Kari. Thank you."
"No problem, said Davis. Oh yeah, TC...I mean...TG...or whatever your name is, you better take care of Kari or else I will beat you up if you don't."
"Davis, yelled TK. You even said my name right two time already!
"Well, said Davis...something just don't change."
*End of Flashback*
"Yep, Tai thinks...something just don't change."
*Odaiba Airport*
"Yolie, promise me you will take care of yourself and write to me once you get there okay?"
"Alright mom, said Yolie. I am just going to United State for one semester. I will write to you. I promise. Beside, Mimi is going to be there to look after me."
"But still...."
"Come on, mom, Yolie's older sister said. She is old enough. It is time she learn to take care of herself."
"Yeah, it is about time for me to learn to take care of myself, Yolie said smiling." She looks at her watch and gasp. "It is time for me to aboard." She turn to each one of them and give them each a hug. "Take care, she said. You guys will always be in my heart. I will think of you everyday."
As she turns to pick up her luggage, she hear someone calling out her name. She looks around her and saw Kari, Cody, Izzy, Davis, and Ken running up to her. She wave to them and smile.
"Sorry, Kari gasped as she stopped in front of Yolie. Weee...got stuck in traffic."
"It's alright, says Yolie. I am glad that you guys have come to say good-bye. I will write to you once I get there. I promise.
"Hey Yolie, said Cody. Take care and have a safe trip. I will be waiting for your letters." Yolie gave him a hug and turn to Davis as he pulls out a card.
"Here Yolie, said Davis as he hand her a card. I hope you will come back soon, not that I am going to miss you at all." Yolie smiles and gave him a hug causing him to blush."
"I have some flowers for you, said Kari. However, I put them in this little bottle." Yolie took the little bottle from Kari and looked at it. There was nothing but liquid in it. She gave Kari a questioning look and saw Kari sniffing the air. Yolie smile and hug Kari for her gift.
"Thank you for the perfume."
"You're welcome."
"I got you a lab top," said Izzy as he hands her the package. "I have already inputted all the programs that you need and I also added some games into it."
"Perfecto! Thanks Izzy." She gave him a hug and put the gift in her bag.
"Yolie, said Ken." Yolie turns to look at him as he took out a small box and give it to her. "A small gift, Ken stammer. I hope you would wear it everyday."
She opens the box and took the necklace out. On it were two charms that resemble the crest of sincerity and the crest of love. She smiles and gave Ken a hug. "I love it Ken, and I will wear it everyday." Ken blushes as he returns her hug.
She looks at her watch and frown. "I am sorry you guys, said Yolie. I have to go. You guys take care once that I am gone. Bye!" Yolie picks up her suitcase and run to her gate. She waved goodbye to them as she turns to go.
"Bye," they scream as they watch her disappear from the walkway and into the airplane. They all left when they saw the plane safely left the ground."
*In the Airplane*
"AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!"
The people in the airplane turn around just in time to see Yolie jumped on top of her chair. She turned to look at the people and gave them a sheepish grin.
"Sorry everyone. I thought there was a rat on the floor so I reacted that way. It was only a stuff animal."
Yolie picked up the toy and show it to her audience. In a moment later, everything was back to normal. Yolie sigh and plop down on her chair. She picks up her bag and open it.
"Hey, Poromon. Are you alright? You scare the living daylight out of me...well...along with all the people on this plane."
"I'm sorry Yolie, groan Poromon. My stomache hurt so much."
"Well, I hope you learn your lesson. Don't eat any of the food that Davis have cooked. I think he got all of the Digimon sick. Come on out and I will rub your stomache for you."
Poromon flap out of the bag and land on Yolie's lap. He sigh happily as Yolie softly rub his stomache.
"Thanks, Yolie. Did you have fun at the party last night?"
"Yeah, I did. It was nice of Davis to throw a goodbye party for me. It was fun until all of you guys tried Davis's Digimon Special." She giggle as she remember the incident. "Hehehe...Veemon was so mad at Davis that he headbunt him and threw up on his goggles."
Poromon started to laugh but he quickly cringed as the pain from his stomache hits him again. Yolie gave him a sympathetic smile and took out the necklace that Ken have given her.
"Hey, Poromon look what Ken got for me. Isn't it pretty?"
"You don't have to show it to me because Wormon have already shown it to me yesterday. He said that it took Ken a long time to find a perfect gift for you. He also said that he thinks Ken really like you a lot. Do you feel the same way for Ken too?
Poromon waited for Yolie's answer but when he didn't hear anything coming out of her, he turns to look up at her and saw her staring out the window. Her expression was unreadable.
"Yolie?"
"Huh?"
"What are you looking at?"
"Nothing"
"Is something bothering you?" Poromon is starting to get a little bit worry. Yolie hardly acted like this way.
"Poromon. Do you really think Ken like me?" She asked that question in a soft voice with her eyes glued to the view outside the window.
"I don't know. How do you feel?"
"Ken is a very special guy. Not many people can go through all the pain that he have went through and to be able to pick himself back up. He is smart, kind, athletic, and very cute. I should be flatter that he actually pay some attention to me. But..."
"But what?"
"But how come I have to fall in love with someone who doesn't even loves me, said Yolie softly."
*Somewhere near the Masaki Shrine*
"So, how are the pictures coming?"
"Perfect. Kari is going to like these."
Tai offers TK a drink and sat down besides him. The sun was shining it's last gleam as it disappear under the horizon. Agumon and Patamon have just barely woke up from their afternoon nap and are playing inside the car. The two boys laughed when Patamon tricked Agumon into standing in front of the air bag and releasing it on him. However, their laughter stoped when Agumon accidentally fired a "pepper breath" at TK's and Tai's direction, while trying to get free, and almost toasting TK with it if Tai haven't pushed him away.
"Hey, Agumon. Watch where you're aiming," Tai said as he helped TK up his feet. He than ran up to Agumon and told him to hold still. TK was scolding Patamon and it took thirty more seconds until Agumon was finally free. He went chasing after Patamon and firing fire balls right after him, however, Tai stoped him because he was about to cause a fire in the forest. After the uproar was over, Tai sat down from exaustion. Agumon by this time was too tierd to fire any more "pepper breath" and made truce with Patamon (not without burning one of his ear first). They all sat down in silent as they observe the moonlight dancing in the wave.
"Tai?"
"Yeah?"
"What did you mean when you said that: Somethings just don't change?"
TK looks at Tai when he asked that question. He (Tai) didn't shift his glace away from the ocean as he ponders TK's question."
"It's Matt isn't it," asked TK softly. He looks down at his hand. "You're still in love with Sora, aren't you?"
"You're right, TK.
"But, they just..."
"I know. I also know that Matt and Sora are my best friends." Tai looks at TK and smile. "I also know that I will always love Sora no matter what happen. However, I value my friendship with Matt as much as I value my feelings for Sora. I won't do anything to hurt anyone of them." He stood up and looks to the ocean. A serene look passes through his face. "If Sora is happy, then so am I."
"Tai."
"Beside, I already bought them a wedding gift already and the manager over there said it is not refundable and there is no return. I am not going to waste it," joked Tai.
"Their wedding is not coming until a year later!"
"Well, better earlier than late. Come on let's go home, before Agumon and Patamon start the ruckus again."
*New York Airport*
"Hey, Poromon, do you see Mimi?"
Poromon is flying up in the air looking for the other digidestine girl. However, there are so many people rushing back and forth in this airport, that it's practically impossible to locate one person. Poromon flys back down to Yolie and shakes his head. Yolie sigh and quickly jumped when someone tapped her on her shoulder. She turned around to find Mimi smiling at her.
"Mimi!!!" Yolie gave Mimi a hug. Mimi laughed and returns back her hug.
"Who did you thought it was, Yolie?"
"Well, uhmm...nobody."
"Yeah, sure," said Mimi as she continues to smile. "By the height you jumped, I would have guessed you thought I was Myotismon."
"Aww, that is not funny. Let's get serious. Where do I go now?
Mimi help Yolie carry off some of her bags as she leads her to her car. When they settled in they drove away to Mimi's appartment. It seems like she is going to college next year and she have already rented an apartment near her school. Yolie is going to stay in the same apartment with her and attend the same school for some of her classes for the up coming semester.
*Odaiba*
"I'm home," said Kari. Did you...what's going on here?"
Her parents were frantically grabing their jackets and keys as they prepare to go out. Gatomon walks up to Kari and starts to cry. Her mother wraps her arms around her and starts to sob out of control.
"What happen," Kari whisper as she hold on to her mother. She could feel something bad was going to happen. Something that she don't want to know, however, she knows that she cannot run away from it. Her dad gently pulls away his wife and took Kari's hand. They all run out of the apartment and into the drive way. They speeded off in the direction to the Masaki Shrine.
*****
"This is a nightmare. A total nightmare."
However, Kari knows that this is real. Matt is there with Gabumon and his parents as they look down the cliff. They all dread the outcome and hope for the best, however, it have been four hours and they have not found the bodies of Tai and TK.
"Am I, am I going to lose the two people I love," said Kari as she starts to cry. She crumbles to the floor as Gatomon hugs her on the waist. Matt walks up to her and holds her. His tears fall down freely as he cried for his missing brother.
Tai and TK was driving down the path from the cliff when a drunk driver hits their car from behind. The drunk driver was okay because Tai's car help serve as a cushion for his reckless speed, but Tai's car was spinned out of control and had ran off the path, throwing them down the jagged rock into the ocean. A witness saw this and immediately called the police. The drunk driver was knock out of consiouse and was taken to the hospital. Divers were sent to recover the bodies of the missing boys but so far nothing have appear.
Matt continues to hold on to Kari as they both wait for the results. Four hours later, the divers pull up their discovery. Tai was holding on to Agumon and TK's hand as Patamon clings on to TK as they hit the water. Cuts were shown on Tai's back as he protected TK from the windshield and took the full impact of the fall. Their bodies were found lying in that position and were quickly pronouced dead. Agumon and Patamon's bodies disappear right after the discovery and were changed to data to be reconfigured.
"TK!!!! TAI!!!!"
Two Days Later
Ken have just bought the flowers for Tai and TK's funeral and is walking home from the flower shop. He frozed in front of a electronic store window and shakes his head in disbelief.
"No...not her too," whispers Ken.
He collapse down in front of the electronic stores and started to cry uncontrollable. In the window, a new television was shown as a display. The television was brocasting some news in regarding to an explosion of a university apartment in New York. A gas leakage have cause that explosion and caused the whole building to collapse. There were ten people that have died from that accident and among these dead people, Yolie and Mimi's name are listed.
*Planet Jurai*
"General, sir."
"What is it," asked General Neo.
"Lord Azusa awaits your audience, sir."
"Ah..." General Neo dismissed his soldier and open up a screen. On the screen appears the the face of the ruler of the Jurian empire, King Azusa.
"Your majesty." General Neo bow to his lord as he addresses him. "What can I do for you."
"Do you have any more news about the enemy, General?"
"Nothing. We can't seem to find their base. Even with Washu's help we can't even do it. It must be located at another dimension."
"Ten year." Azusa rub his head in fustration. "Ten whole years we have been playing hide and seek with the enemy. We are in the light, whereas, they are in the dark. When is this going to end?"
"Soon, your majesty. That's all I can hope for."
*Odaiba*
"OWWWWWW!!!!"
"Hold still, Davis. How can you expect me to bandage you while you are jumping around.
"I am not jumping around. How can you expect me to jump around with a broken leg and arm. Let's see you do that!
Davis and Veemon are sitting inside his noodle car as Veemon tried to bandage up Davis's wound. Davis was crazy enough to fight four guys that were twice his size without Veemon there to protect him. The result: Davis got beat up so badly that he got send to the hospital with a broken right led and a left arm. Well...he didn't get the crest of courage for nothing.
"There all done," said Veemon.
"Hey, thanks Veemon. Next time those four jerks come here again, I will beat them up for sure.
"Uh...Davis. Haven't you learn your lesson yet?"
"Nope," said Davis as he flip his hair away from his eyes with his usable hand. His looks haven't changed much (along with his personality) and he is still wearing that goggles. He still wears it because it reminds him of Tai and this was the only gift that Tai have given him.
Ten years have past and all of the digidestine have all grown up. Matt is an astronaut working in one of the top aerospace in Japan. Sora is a top designer in kimono and owns a store in Tokyo. She and Matt have a son (4 years old) and a daughter (6 years old) named Toji and Naomi. However, after seven years of marriage, they divorced each other and now the children are living with Sora. They still remain good friends and that what's important.
Kari is a kindergarden teacher and was married to Davis for a year and a half. Although their marriage have ended, they still remain good friends. Ken has become a detective with Stingmon. His wife had passes away one year ago. His daughter Yuriko (one years old) have brought many joy to his and Stingmon's life.

Izzy has become one of the greatest scientist in modern time. He is still single and is waiting for the right girl to appear.
As for Davis, he is driving around in his noodle car trying to make a name for his noodles. So far he is going really well, until this accident.
"Now how am I going to drive my car with this leg!"
"Don't worry Davis. I got it all cover. I put an ad in the newpaper this morning for hiring a driver. I'm sure we can find one person to drive for us."
"Ughh!! What is the possibility that they are going to show up today?" Davis throw his head backward in fustration. What he didn't hear was a person calling out to him.
"Excuse me, yelled someone."
"Wahhh!!!" Davis and Veemon pounced upward at the sound of that person's voice. However, Davis quickly sat back down as to not to put anymore pressure on his injured leg. He look outside his cart and saw a beautiful woman standing there with a newspaper in her hand.
"Excuse me," asked the woman. "Are you by any chance the person who printed out this ad?" She holds out the newpaper to Davis and he took if from her hand. He nodded his head and look at her.
"Good. I was wondering have you hired anyone yet. I was hoping you could hired me.
"You! You want this job??"
"Yes, I do, said the woman. Why do you sound so shocked?"
"It's just that..." said Davis nervously. "You're beautiful and there are better jobs for you than this." Davis mentally kicked himself for saying that.
"Thanks for the compliment, said the woman. However, I do like this job. I guess you hired someone already didn't you?"
"No we didn't," said Davis quickly. "I would like to hire you for the job if you want to. However, I need to test out your driving skills before I can actually hire you."
"Okay, said the woman. Do I start now?"
"Yeah, you can start right now." Davis opens the door for her. She walks up to the door as her long purple hair sways gently along with the wind. She smiles at Davis as he tries to help her in. When she got in there, she was introduced to Veemon.
"Oh yeah, I never got your name. What is your name?"
"Joyce," said the woman as she extend one of her hand to Davis and to Veemon. "Masaki Joyce." Davis took her hand and smile at her.
"I'm Davis. Nice to meet you.
*Odaiba Elementary School*
"Miss Kamiya? Can I talk to you for a moment?"
Kari have just let out her kids for recess when the principal walks into her classroom. She brush her long brown hair from her face and nodded her head.
"What can I do for you, Principal Hiroshi?"
"Actually, I wanted to introduce to you your new partner. He will be working with you on the upcoming math field day. He is also the new teacher we hired to replace our second grade teacher that is going away next week. As for now, I want you to work with him and let him attend your class until the other teacher leaves. Is that alright with you, Miss. Kamiya.?"
"Sure," said Kari. "Gatomon and I would be delighted to meet him and have him stay with us until his position is avalible, right Gatomon?" Gatomon have just come into the room from the window but she heard the whole conversation. She nodded her head to answer Kari's question.
"Good, I will bring him in." The pricipal went out of the room and return shortly with a handsome young man behind him. "Allow me to introduce you two. This is Masaki Ero and this young lady is Kamiya Hikari. She is your partner in the upcoming math field day, and you will be staying with her until your position is cleared."
Ero extended his hand to Kari and smiles at her. She took his hand and shook it. She suddenly have this overwheming feeling of security. She looks at him and smile.
"It's my pleasure to meet you, Miss Kamiya."
"Kari would do, Mr. Masaki. This is Gatomon." Kari lift up Gatomon and Ero shook her paws.
"And Ero would do for me." His blue eyes sparkled as he said that. He turn around to look at his enviornment and pushes his shoulder-length blond hair away from his eyes.
"Kari. Gatomon. I got a feeling we are going to get along just fine."
"Me, too," said Kari. "Me too."
*An Aerospace Building in Japan*
"Hey Matt! Come over here!"
Matt turned to see one of his friend calling for him. He sigh and quickly walk up to his friend's desk.
"What's up Patrick? I got to go to a meeting right now."
"I know that but do you know that you got assigned with a new partner?" Matt frowned at his words.
"A new partner? Who is it?"
"I don't know who it is because I never saw him before. However, I do know that his name is called Masaki Micky. He is very smart and graduated as the top in his class. Our company went through a lot to hired him because there was so many other company that is competing for him.
"Does he have any experience?"
"No...I don't think so. But his knowledge makes up for it, I guess."
"Ugh," Matt groaned. "Just my luck. A bookworm and an amateur. I don't have time to train him."
"Well, for your information, Mr. Ishida. This little amateur and bookworm don't need any training because I learn from the best."
Matt and Patrick was startled when they heard that person's voice. They turned around to see a beautiful looking women with long brown hair glaring at them. Her hair was tied back with a blue ribbon and her brown eyes were flashing with anger through her glasses. Patrick stood there staring at her but Matt was furious.
"Who are you and do you have any manner," Matt said in anger.
"I am the bookworm and the amateur that you guys are talking about!"
"You're Micky," asked Patrick astonished.
"I don't care who you are," said Matt. "You have no right to eavesdrops on anyone's conversation."
"And if you have any name calling that you want to do, you should do it in front of me," said Micky. "Not behind my back."
"Errr...what is going on?"
Gabumon has just arrive to see Matt and Micky arguing with each other. When he asked that question, they both turned to look at him. Micky looked at him and then at Matt. She gave Matt a glare and turned to walk away. Matt was still glaring after her even when she was gone and have went into the meeting room.
"Uhh...Matt, said Gabumon, who was she?"
"An amateur, bookworm, and an eavesdropper." Matt stormed into the meeting room with Gabumon right behind him.
*Tokyo*
"Hey, Sora! Biyomon! Guess what?"
Sora and Biyomon turn to look at Yuki when she runs up to them.
"What's up, Yuki?"
"I just hired us a new sales manager," said Yuki triumphly.
"You did what?!!!!"
Sora and Biyomon were extremely shock at Yuki's revealation. Yuki on the other hand, looks annoyed.
"What," asked Yuki. "We have been searching for a sales manager for half a year already and nobody have fill that space yet. I thought you would be glad that we finally find one."
"I know," said Sora as she puts her purse down. "But how did you hired him?"
"Well...I kind of hired him at the bar last night. I was kind of drunked and I ran up to him. He said he was looking for a job and I said I would hired him if he wants the position for sales manager and accountant. He said yes and then he showed up today."
Sora groan from fustration as Biyomon gave Yuki an annoying look. "I can't believe you," Sora exclaimed. "I will just have to tell him that we got this all wrong and apologize to him. Where is he now?"
"He is in the room next to your office," said Yuki. "I gave him something to work on this morning."
Sora turns away from Yuki and walk to the room next to her office. When she opens the door, she was shock to see the stranger hard at work. His head was bent over the accounting books and was writing furiously with one hand and scanning the accounting books with the other. His face was hidden by the book and by the cap that he wears. Sora knock on the door to get his attention but he did not raise his head and continues to work. She then clears her throat to catch his attention and still he did not reply. She was about to speak when he finally answers her.
"I am sorry but can you please wait for a minute. I will be with you shortly," said the man without lifting his head from the book. Sora stood there silently as he continues to write. Finally, after thirty seconds, he stops writing and life up his head to her. He smiles to her and stood up and walk to her.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting," said the man politely, as his brown eyes twinkle. "What can I do for you?"
"Hi, I am Sora. I am the owner of this store and you are?" The man looks surprise for a while but he quickly recover from his shock.
"My name is Masaki Theo," said the man. He stick out his hand to her and they both shook hands.
"I'm sorry," said Sora. "I think there have been a misunderstanding. You see..." Sora never did finished her sentence because Biyomon has just flew in and is hovering over Theo's work. She gave a surprising cried, and Sora was rushed to her side. She notices what have caused Biyomon to cried out loud immediately. She picked up Theo's writing and was shocked at all his calculation. It usally takes her accountant one whole day to get her account calculated out, but Theo only took one hour (at max). She looks at Theo and pointed at the paper.
"You did all this in one hour?!!!!"
"Yes, I did," said Theo frowning. "Did I do something wrong?"
"Well...no," said Sora uncertainly. "Actually, I am very impress. How did you learn to calculate so fast?"
"I learned it from my math professor when I was majoring in accounting." Theo stood there looking at Sora as she stood there pondering about her decision. A minute have past when she finally made her decision. Sora smiles and sticks out her hand.
"Welcome to our team."
*An Apartment in Odaiba*
"What a rough day!"
Joyce yawned as she step out from the elevator and walks infront of her apartment door. She opens the door to the apartment and went inside. It is dark inside the apartment and she can hardly see anything. She didn't even bother to turn on the light due to her weariness and headed straight to her bedroom. However, while she was walking to her bedroom, she accidentally dropped her keys.
"Oh great," Joyce groans. She went down on her fours (knees and hands) and start to look for her keys.
*******
Theo never want to see another accounting book again. He have spent the whole day calculating the store's income and managing the whole store.
"Washu didn't told me that this is going to be so much work," said Theo as he walks into his apartment.
It was dark inside his apartment but he was too sleepy to notice. He threw his keys to the direction of the living's room table and started to walk blindly to his room.
"What the...!"
Instead of ploping on top of his soft bed, he accidentally tripped over something, or rather, someone. The other person gave a cried of surprise as Theo went flying over the person and landed flat on his face.
"It's an intruder," thought Theo as he quickly tries to turn around to face that person. However, before he can do anything the intruder have already pounced on him.
******
Joyce was too distracted to notice that someone have came into her apartment until that person litterally walk over her. She gaved a cried of surprise but was quickly alert to what was going on.
"An intruder," thought Joyce as she pounced on the person's back. She twisted his arms behind him helding it with one of her knees and with the other, she kneed him on his back. She then press one of her palm on his head, pushing it agaist the floor.
"Who are you," Joyce asked coldly.
******
"Damn," thinks Theo as the intruder quickly disenable him from moving. He was about to yell when the intruder slam his face on the carpet. Needless to say, Theo was extremely furious and was about to attack the person when he suddenly froze. It suddenly dawned on him that it was Joyce's voice and that she is the one that is attacking him. He tried to call out her name, unfortunately, his mouth was agaist the carpet enabling him from speaking.
"This is the last time I am going to ask you," said Joyce as she press her palm harder on his head. "Who are you?!"
When Theo did not speak, she lift up her other hand to knock him out. Before she can put her plan to action, the whole room lights up as someone turns on the lights. Joyce squint to the direction of the light switch just in time to see Micky and Ero standing at the door with their mouth wide open. After a few seconds have past, Ero begin to laugh, whereas, Micky, on the other hand, is frowning at Joyce as she calmly spoke to Joyce.
"Yolie, what are you doing?"
Yolie looked at Micky and quickly turn to look at the face of the intruder. She gave a short cry of recognition.
"TAI!!!" She quickly jump to her feet to set Tai free and crouched down beside him to help him up.
"I'm sorry, Tai. I didn't know it was you."
"How can you not know," said Micky. "We have been training with each other for ten years. Don't you recognize his chi?"
"Mimi is right," said a voice out of no where.
They all jumped up in surprise and quickly turn to the source of the voice. On the top of their kitchen table, there laid a ring. It projected a holographic image of a women with long pink hair. Her emerald eyes shine with intellegent and amusement as she watched the four people staring at her and calling out her name at once.
"WASHU!"
"That's me," said the women with pink hair.
"How long have you been standing there," asked Yolie.
"Actually, I saw the whole thing."
"WHAT!!!" Tai, Yolie, and Mimi are glaring at Washu as she smiles at them.
"Damn it Washu," said Tai. "Why didn't you stop Yolie?"
"Oh you know. It was such a good show that I didn't want to stop it," Washu said as she smiles cutely at them.
"Come to think of it," said Ero. "I wouldn't mind watching that myself."
"Thank you, TK. At least someone agrees with me," said Washu. "But enough of this. I came here to check up on you guys. How was the first day on your jobs?"
"Well, Mimi, over here, have already started a war with my brother already."
Washu, Yolie, and Tai raised their eyebrows as they look at Mimi. Mimi hardly get angry (unless she is in a battle) and it usually takes something big to cause her to lose her temper. Somehow, her actions today with Matt, does not seems natural at all.
"I was trying to keep my distant," Mimi softly said.
"I understand," Tai said.
"Come to think of it," said Yolie. "How did I got my job? I mean, Sora have been looking for a sales manager for ages and TK got his job by answering the school advertisement. Mimi got it through you but somehow, the way I got my job certainly does not make sense at all. How come Davis got his leg and arm broken all of a suddenly? How did you know that he will be needing a driver, Washu?" Yolie gasped. "You didn't send someone to beat Davis up just so I can get the job, did you Washu?"
Yolie quickly regreted her last question as Washu's eyes flared up in anger. They all know that if there was one person in this planet that you do not want to offend, that person would be Washu (explanation of Washu would be given in Author's Note). They all waited for Washu to explode as Yolie dreaded her fate. When she finally did, they all sigh in relief.
"That idiot! How did he got beat up?! Ugh!! I wasted my money putting up that false advertisement." They waited until Washu has calm down before they continue on with their conversation.
"Washu," said TK. "Why are we doing this again? Why are we going back into their lives after avoiding them for ten years?"
"Because I need you guys to bait our enemy. For ten years, we tried to find the location of their base but nothing have worked. Since you four are some of the best that we've got, I need you to act as a bait for the enemy so that if they do send people to attack you, I can trace where they come from. The powers from the Masaki Shrine are strong enough to deal with whatever our enemies throw at us, but we can't keep that up forever. With you four out there (away from the Masaki Shrine), vunerable and easy to prey, they will, no doubt, sent someone of eliminate you. Till then, you will just have to work for your living."
"But why do we have to work with them? Can't we work at some place else?"
"I want to test your ability to withstand temptation."
"But we avoided them for ten years," Tai said in fustration. "It's that a good enough proof? By putting us near them, we are putting them in danger again."
"Avoiding them and being in their lives is very different from each other. They won't be in danger as long as you keep your distance. The enemy won't attack them if they have no meaning to you."
"Why didn't you trace the enemy before," asked Mimi. "How can you be sure this will work?"
"I did try to trace them but none of my inventions have ever been able to bypass the security that they have. Beside, most of their aircrafts and warships are located at many different locations. I have eliminated all of the locations that I can trace but none of them are the enemies central base. I believe that I would just need one more data and with this new invention, I will be able to trace where it is locate."
Washu looks at them seriously before she continue. "I know what I am asking you to do is hard. I also know that this mission is also high at risk. I am asking you, right now, to speak up if you believe you cannot handle it." She waited for their answer for five minutes and nodded her head at them.
"Good. Let's get everything settle down first. TK, this will be your apartment from now on. I have already arrange living quarters for the rest of you guys."
"Just cancel mines," said Yolie. "I will be traveling with Davis all the time. I won't be using it."
"Then where will you sleep," ask Mimi.
"I will be sleeping with Davis in his car or in different rooms at a hotel. Don't worry, I will keep my distance from him. I don't want him to die because of me."
"Keep your distance, but don't isolate yourself," said Washu. "Just act natural so that they won't get suspicious."
"Alright," said TK. "Since everything is settle, let's start this mission."
"I will send you each a watch," said Washu. "In that watch, I have a tracer, a transmitter, and it is able to protect you by forming a shield around you. Use that shield only when it is necessary."
"We will, Washu," said Tai. "I will watch over them."
"Good luck you guys. I will look over Agumon, Patamon, Palmon, and Hawkmon for you guys. Until then, try to stay alive."
"We will," said Tai as Washu's image disappear from the ring and officially starting their mission. "We will."
Author's Note: I hope you like this first chapter. It might start out boring for the first chapter and 3/4 of chapter two (which is coming soon). After that, we are going to get some more action. If you have any comment, please send it to Digi_03@yahoo.com. That way I can improve. Here is the data on Washu:
Washu: There are actually two different stories about Washu. However, one thing that they all have in common are that, Washu is indeed the most intelligent scientist in the whole universe. This talent is shown throughout both the OAV series and the TV series. In this story, I will be using both information from both series but it would be focus more on the OAV.
OAV: Washu is one of the three goddess that created this universe. She later gave up her goddess ability due to her interest in human. In the OAV, she maintain her child like form because her child was once taken from her and she did not want to feel the pain of a women. In the 20,000 years+ of her life time, she took in a student name Kagato and created a daughter named Ryoko. She also created an ultimate space ship (it is also a cabbit) called Ryo-oh-ki. She was held captive by Kagato but was later free by Mihoshi. She presently reside in Tenchi's home along with her daughter and other members of the household.
TV: Washu was locked in a cave, near the Masaki shrine when she was accidentally released by Ryoko during her fight with Ayeka. She is smart and likes Tenchi alot. She resides in Tenchi's house and is constantly experimenting new thing. However, Mihoshi always basically blows up all her invention by accidentally pushing the self destruction button. Washu also kept a child like form (approximately 13 years old) in this series.
