Suzie felt good tonight, walking home to her apartment. She had just finished her secret date with Mako, and couldn't help but revel in euphoria of seeing her boyfriend despite her older brother's disapproval of him. She didn't see why he was so overprotective! Mako was the sweetest, kindest, and most gentlemanly boy she had ever met. Far better than anyone else at her age she would be seeing. Besides, she wasn't the same naïve little girl when she was first partnered with lopmon, clinging to her brother's legs. She was 14 (nearly 15), for crying out loud, yet her brother Henry was still WAY to overprotective of her.
So she had resorted to sneaking out.
She had gotten help from lopmon herself, (the tamers had long since reunited with their digimon) not to mention Ai, Mako's sister and one of Suzie best friends (her age). 'Still' Suzie thought 'it's not fair that I have to sneak around to see Mako, after all, Henry goes and sees Alice all the time, so do Jerry and Ryo, heck, even Takato has the guts to go and date Rika. That has got to be, like one of the most dangerous things on the planet! So why can't I-'
Suzie's train of thought was interrupted by the sound of some heavy making-out in the apartment her family lived in. Quietly unlocking the door (then just as quietly, closing it) and creeping to the end of the hallway she was about to turn the corner into the living room, when she stopped to wonder who was making out so passionately that she could hear it outside in the hallway.
'Maybe it's Henry and Alice back from their date, but I don't see how. I've timed this just right, and I KNOW that Henry wasn't supposed to be back for at least another forty-five minutes.' Thought Suzie 'Maybe he and Alice just came back early from their date? Yeah, that's got to be it!' Smirking she realized that she could get back at him by teasing him (after scaring Mako off when they were having a perfectly normal conversation), so after taking a second to think of some retorts she turned the corner with the full intent of teasing Henry.
What she found instead shocked her to the core and left her speechless (which was out of character for her). She was SHOCKED to say the least. Yet she could still utter the word…
"…Lopmon?"
