"Dreams"
Please enjoy and review!
The sun shone down on the beautiful grassy landscape and the sky was a clear, bright color of blue as birds flew through the air, tweeting happily.
Walking through the grassy area was a 14 year old girl with shoulder length raspberry colored hair, tanned skin and chocolate brown eyes and she was wearing a knee length white sundress.
She was walking along the field with her bare feet, feeling the grass tickling her heels as she glanced around the area, in awe of the sight of the peaceful land.
Looking around the area around her curiously, the girl stopped by a tree when she saw movement coming from that direction.
Peering closer, she found a swarm of cherry blossoms dancing in the wind and tranform into the body of a woman who smiled at the girl and waved at her.
Startled, the girl raised her hand and gave a hesitant wave to the flower woman who then drifted away on the winds.
Staring after her curiously, the girl wanted to follow after the flower woman, but stopped when movement from the corner of her eye caught her attention one more.
Turning, she stared up at a rock formation and found a large lion with a golden mane staring down at her.
Unable to move, the girl continued to stare into the unwavering gaze of the mighty beast who had intelligent gold eyes.
Blinking to snap herself out of the staring match she was in with the beast, the girl then opened up her eyes and jumped in fright, yelping in shock.
Somehow, the lion had moved from on top of the mountain and was now standing in front of the girl, towering over her.
"Um, nice kitty?" She backed away.
A chuckle came from deep inside the lion's chest which stunned the girl as she stared at the beast and watched as his maw turned up into a smile.
Being caught staring into the lion's golden eyes once again, the girl was amazed with the kindness and warmth she saw inside of them.
Unable to stop herself, the raspberry haired girl lifted her arm and reached out with her hand, hesitantly moving closer to the lion, having a strange desire to pet the beast.
Giving the girl a look of amusement, the lion stepped forward and touched the girl's hand with his forehead, making her freeze in shock as she felt the silky soft fur under her touch.
Gasping, Davinia 'Davey' Motomiya was awoken by the feeling of weight being dropped onto her stomach.
Tilting her head, she glared down at the tiny blue and white dragon that was sitting on her belly.
Seeing that he now had her attention, DemiVeemon grinned at the girl with the most sweet and innocent expression he could muster.
"Good morning, Davey!" He chirped.
Groaning, Davey then sat up in bed and scooped DemiVeemon up into her arms, making him giggle as she stared down at him with a fake glare.
"DemiVeemon, why did you do that? You know I hate it when you jump on me to wake me up." She scolded.
"I had to do it. You were sleeping through your alarm." DemiVeemon informed.
Registering the annoying beeping noise, Davey turned to look at her blue digital alarm clock that was still ringing and glared at it.
Reaching over to her bedside table, she slapped her hand down on the button to turn the alarm off, happy when the loud noise was no longer disturbing the peace of her room.
Now that she was aware of being in her bedroom, the girl let her mind wander back to the strange dream she had of the beautiful land and the magnificent lion.
How had her mind conjured up something like that?
Shaking her head to clear it of the memory of the dream, Davey then turned her attention back onto her dragon and placed herself back into reality.
She was going to be late for school if she didn't get up and got ready.
"Come on you, let's go take a shower before Jun uses up all the hot water." Davey said as she climbed out of bed.
Cheering, DemiVeemon clung to his human's shoulder as she carried him with her out of their bedroom with her blue house coat tucked under her arm.
After the duo were showered and stepped out of the bathroom smelling of strawberries and pomegranates, Davey got dressed into her green school uniform and tied the back of her hair up into a ponytail.
Walking out into the kitchen, the girl found a fair skinned woman with bubble gum pink hair and chocolate brown eyes standing at the counter, brewing some coffee.
"Hey, Mom!" Davey greeted.
Head picking up, the woman smiled at her youngest daughter who made her way over to the fridge to look for something to eat.
"Morning, sweetheart. Running a little late, aren't you? Your sister and father have already left." Kaia Motomiya said.
Jumping off his human's shoulder, DemiVeemon then climbed up onto the table while Davey walked over with a crate of strawberries and carton of juice in her arms.
"They always leave early." Davey responded with.
Sitting down at the table, Davey then opened the crate and ate one of the strawberries inside while DemiVeemon dragged over a jar of chocolate spread, using it to coat his own berry before he gobbled it up.
Giving her daughter an amused look, Kaia then filled a cup with the coffee she brewed and moved to sit down at the table with her.
"Just a warning. If you're late, I'm not writing you a note." Kaia informed.
"I know. But I am not going to school on an empty stomache." Davey stated.
That made Kaia smirk since she knew that this stubborn attitude of hers was something Davey had inherited from her father.
Finishing up the berries, Davey then rushed off to her room to grab her school bag and slung it onto her back before she then grabbed her house key and slipped it into her pocket.
"Okay, I'm going now." Davey said as she ran over to the door and shoved her feet into her shoes.
"Davinia, aren't you forgetting something?" Kaia asked.
Stopping out in the hall, Davey back tracked to the door and poked her head into the apartment with a confused expression.
"What?" She asked.
Standing by the kitchen counter, Kaia was holding a bento box that had been covered with a blue and orange cloth.
"Your lunch. We don't want you to starve when lunch comes around. Or try to bum food off your friends." Kaia gave her daughter an amused look.
Laughing bashfully, Davey walked back into the kitchen and took her bento box from her mother and leaned up to kiss the woman on the cheek.
"Right. Thanks, Mom. Bye DemiVeemon!" Davey called as she raced out the front door.
"You're not taking me? What am I supposed to do all day?" DemiVeemon cried.
He then pouted when his partner continued running, making her way out of the apartment building so she could meet up with her friends to race off to school.
Walking over to the baby dragon, Kaia then scooped him up into her arms and smiled down at him.
"Come on, DemiVeemon. You and I are going shopping. I have this new recipe I want to try out and you can be the taste tester." She winked down at him.
Staring up at the beautiful woman, DemiVeemon felt awed.
It was like looking at an older version of Davey whenever he saw Kaia, especially when the woman was showing off her playful side.
Just from looking at Kaia, it was easy to tell that Davey would grow up to be a beautiful woman one day.
"Okay!" DemiVeemon chirped happily as he was carried off by the pink haired woman.
Meanwhile, Davey was running down the street outside, passing by the library along the way.
She rushed by the steps that had had statues of lions carved into them.
When she passed by them, she swore she heard the sound of a lion's roar, but shrugged it off as she continued running to meet up with her friends before they yelled at her for making them wait on her.
