Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN DIGIMON! I'm not making any money off this ether so don't sue me. (I'm broke anyway)

Mimi was walking in the London airport. It had been two months since she left the digidestined. The others didn't want her. Why else would they try to send her away for "special training"?

'I might play dumb sometimes so Tai doesn't feel challenged, but I'm not stupid! Sora and Joe, my best friends, didn't even say a word in my defense! If the digidestined don't want Mimi, then Mimi doesn't want the digidestined! Matt wasn't there so whatever Tai said went. Argh! Tai can be such an idiot!'

Mimi was so lost in thought that she bumped into nearly ten thousand different people.

'Okay. So I sometimes act like a space case too. But I don't need "special training"!'

While Mimi was busy thinking (and bumping into more people) A pair of deep sea blue eyes were watching her.

*******************************************************************

'So, Mimi really did leave the digidestined. I wonder why? Tai told me that she just departed one night. Hmmm, what could have made Mimi want to leave? I know it wasn't the shampoo, or the lack of glamour, heck she decorated the new "Digidestined Headquarters" herself! And she bought the shampoo!'

That's right folks. The digidestined have their own headquarters! It is like this hotel in the middle of the digital world. It's were the digidestined lived, ate, and got instructions from Gennai. It also had this big super computer (thanks to Izzy) in the basement so the digi kids, excuse me, the adults that used to be the digi kids, can keep tabs on the Digital world. Also they had access to all this different government files. Izzy, we love you!

Matt, since he is 23 and is an executive officer of this big computer company in London, Tokyo, and New York (again thanks to Izzy) he didn't really have time to be around. But, he was always there when needed!

'I better go say hi to her¼ and see why she left the digidestined, I mean she didn't even take her crest. Or Palmon, or her digivice! And she's the second in command¼ next to ME of course!'

(The digidestined signed leadership positions to the different members by the power of their crest. Mimi is second but the others are used to taking orders from Matt)

Matt walked up behind Mimi and placed his hand on her shoulder. Mimi, instinctively, grabbed Matt's hand, flung him over her shoulder, and threw him to the ground.

"Listen bud, I'm not in the mood to be touched so if you can just go away I'll be most grateful," Mimi said with her eyes more to space then the person she held to the floor.

"Geez Princess, I'm just trying to be friendly!"

Something in that voice made Mimi look up, and when she did she nearly dropped to the floor herself. There he was, the stubborn mule who some how got Izzy to give him a job, countered every one of Tai's suggestions, made it clear that he was "da man", and still is driving nearly everyone half mad by his boasting. Matt Ishida, or Cary Matty as she liked to call him.

"Sorry Crazy Matty, I didn't know it was you! What are you doing in London any how?"

"Well it could be because I work here or it could be because I live here. The food is pretty good in London too, as long as you, don't touch any red meat ya can live off it but, it taste like shi¼ "

"Okay, okay enough already! I get the picture."

"Well then, can you get off me. My stomach is empty and I can really go for some ice cream," as if one cue Mimi's stomach started to rumble, she hadn't eaten since she left Athens, " of course you are welcome to join me, that is after you let me go."

Mimi did as she was told and soon was inhaling an ice cream sundae with everything on it.

"Another ice cream please!" she called to the waiter who was staring at the big chocolate stain on her shirt. "And I want everything on it that is over 100 calories!" Matt was sitting on the other side of the table with is single scoop of Rocky Road.

"Mimi, take time to breathe when you eat ice cream. I'm not made of money!"

"Okay Crazy Matty, I'll eat slower, but it'll cost ya another sundae."

"I'll buy ya the third sundae¼ hey I told you not to call me Crazy Matty!"

"You don't like your nick name? I think it's cyute, that's a cute way to spell cute and you have no room to speak because you still call me princess, oh good my sundae's here."

"Listen Mimi," Matt said suddenly very serious, " I want to know why you left the digidestined, everyone is trying to find you."

Shoot, I was hoping no one would find me until a graduated college. "I just wanted to prove my independence from the digidestined. They think I can't do anything!"

'That's the biggest lie in the world. Mimi is looked on as a role model to everyone! She has changed a lot since our first adventures. She has become stronger mentally and physically. Everyone knows that she's independent.' Matt was thinking to himself. "Mimi, I buy that as much as I buy Tarot cards, but we'll talk about it later. So," Matt said, noting that Mimi was not comfortable talking about this with everyone in the airport's ice cream bar there, he changed the topic, "do have a place to stay?"

'Shoot! Here I am, two years from getting my degree in college and I still don't have a place to stay! Or a college to go to! Okay, so maybe I do need "special training", on how ton run away properly!!'

"I'm stay with a friend here in London," Mimi said sheepishly.

"Who's the friend?" Matt asked.

"You, If you'll take me."

Matt put on a one of those cute hurt puppy faces. You know, the one that makes you want to kill your boyfriend for looking at you with it.

"But I wanted to use the second bed room in my apartment as a bachelor pad!" Matt said in a voice that can make even a mother-in-law feel like scum! "But, you can use it."

The scream of delight Mimi gave scared the waiter (who happened to be carrying Mimi's third sundae) into spilling the ice cream all over this fat woman in a fur coat. The woman was furious and began beating the heck out of the poor boy with her purse, that is, until security pulled her away.

"Crap, there goes my sundae!" Mimi exclaimed as Matt yanked her away from the table as the crazed, beat up, waiter threw every thing put the sink at her¼ wait there goes the sink.

Matt and Mimi raced out of the airport, grabbed a taxi, and caught their breath.

"Hey," Mimi said as the cab pulled up at Matt's apartment and as she and Matt got out of the cab. " I forgot my pack at the airport!"

"Mimi, It's on your back."

"Not this pack, my big on. With all my clothes in it!"

"Don't worry about it. Tomorrow I'll take you shopping for a new wardrobe!" The scream of delight Mimi gave made the cabdriver drive away in total fear and shock. (Before Matt could pay)

"You know Mimi? You are saving me some serious money! Today I got three free sundaes, one free rocky rode, and free cab fair! To bad your screaming never came in handy during our first adventures! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH¼ OWIE!" 'How come all girls have those big sledge hammers behind their backs?' Matt thought as he walked into his apartment with a big bump on his head.

"Well," Mimi said suddenly, "I'm gonna go to bed. It's already 11:00pm. Good night, Crazy Matty."

"Your room is that one," said Matt, pointing to the door on the right. Mimi walked in and after about a minute poked her head out.

"HAHA! I called you Crazy Matty, and you didn't notice!"

"Curse you, Princess!"

Mimi stuck out her toung and slammed the door. Matt got into his bed. Only bothering to take off his pants and jacket.

'It's gonna different with Mimi around. Can't bring home women every other night, can't walk into the bathroom with out knocking on the door, can't walk around the house in the nude any more,(Author's Note: Mimi, I hate you for that!) and most important, I have to leave the toilet seat up!'

"It's a good thing she's cute."

'Opps. Did I just say that out loud? Oh well. I better get some sleep. Tomorrow I boldly go where no man has ever dared go, shopping with Mimi.'

WAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHA!!! I have finally learned how to work my stupid computer! So how didja like the story? Review, and I would like thank all of ya who reviewed my first attempt (you didn't burn to the ground) I'm gonna continue the story, but I want a cookie! So bye!!!
