I'd just like to take a moment to say that this has nothing to do with a href the Tamer /a 's story. It's a fanfiction of a fanfiction. Haha, that's fun to say.
NOTE: I do not own Digimon. Nor do I own Meg, Cody, or Lance. However Lucas is my creation, and I am Kali.
Chapter I
Lucas
Eragon…Harry Potter…Artemis Fowl…
The 16 year old girl tucked a strand of her brown hair behind one ear. Her blue eyes scanned the shelves filled to bursting with books in front of her disappointedly. She had read all of them! All the time, there were never any new books. She sighed and spun the sapphire stud in her ear-lobe around between her thumb and forefinger. Why did life suck so much?
She snatched a wild-life magazine off of the shelf and plopped herself down into one of the cushy arm chairs in the reading section of the library she stood in, looking up at the clock as she did so. Kali had promised she would be here at 2:00. It was now 2:25. It wasn't that she lacked patience. (Which was wearing thin.) Or understanding to why her friend was so late. It was because she was bored out of her mind.
"Excuse me, may I sit here?" A deep and definitely male voice asked. She looked up into a pair of chocolate brown eyes, and had to clamp her jaw shut to stop from gaping. "I-It's a free country." She said, shrugging as she regained control of her brain again. The boy sat down beside her, and she got a good look at him. From her view-point he was about 6 feet tall. His dark brown hair fell lazily into his warm, brown eyes that smiled as he did, and even when he wasn't. He was wearing a white t-shirt with a blue button-up shirt over top of it with faded blue jeans.
"What's your name?" He asked, smiling over the book in his hands. The Outriders. It was thin, but it was one she hadn't read yet…
"Meg." She replied, smiling back. "You?"
"I'm Lucas." He looked at her magazine. "Couldn't find anything good to read?" He gave her a sympathetic smile as she shook her head. "Ah, I have that problem a lot. However, they did get this new series in today." He held up the book. "I'm on number four already. They're actually pretty cool." She looked at the book. "Can I read the summary?" She asked, and he handed it over readily. "Sure, here." Her eyes flew over the text on the back cover and she grinned. "Sweet! Can you show me where they are?" She asked, setting her magazine down on the table. "Sure, just follow me." He smiled and stood up, walking over to the young adults' fiction section. "They're up there." He pointed to the top shelf, then looked down at Meg with an amused smile. "I'll take the first one down for you."
Now Meg knew why Kali was always muttering about 'damn tall people'. "Thanks." She said. "No problem." Lucas replied, his eyes twinkling at her. 'Kind of like Impmon's eyes…' she thought with a small smile. "So, shall we sit down again?" Lucas asked, and Meg nodded, walking with him back to the chairs and striking up a conversation.
20 minutes later the large oak doors of the library were pushed open and Kali rushed through, her face red and her breathing shallow. "Oh my gosh Meg I am so sorry I'm late. Taylor was freaking out and she fell down the stairs so we had to take her to the hospital. I brought the…" She trailed off, staring at her friend's companion. "Oh. Uhh…am I interrupting anything?"
"Actually, I was just saying how I had to leave." Lucas smiled at Meg. "Nice meeting you, Meg." He said, waving as he walked off. Kali raised her eyebrows at him, then looked to Meg with a suggestive expression.
"Kalissa St.Onge you wipe that smirk off of your
face before I beat it off!"
"He's hot." Kali grinned.
"R-really?
I hadn't noticed." She lied, a pinkish tinge rising to her
cheeks.
"Did you arrange a date?" The red-head asked, her
black eyes sparkling with mischief.
"What?!
Kali, I just met him, I'm not going to ask him out on a da-"
"Oh
poo, you're no fun. But oh well, I brought the papers you asked
for." Kali let the subject drop off and pulled out a small folder
full of neatly typed sheets. Meg sighed in relief and took them, and
together the two girls set to work on their History assignment.
Two days later Meg stood on a stool in the fiction aisle, reaching for an Outrider's book. She pulled it off the shelf and hopped down from her perch, walking happily over to her chair.
"Did you have trouble?" A familiar voice teased from behind her. She jumped up and whirled around, eyes wide. "Oh! Lucas! I wasn't expecting to see you…I mean not that I'm upset, but…hey! Was that a crack at my height?!" She asked, placing her hands on her hips.
"You're kinda slow." He joked as he sat down with a laugh. "Kidding, Kidding. But yes, yes it was." She gave him the evil-eye. "Hey, I'm taller than most of the kids in my class." She defended. "Ah, yes, but you're shorter than me." He countered. "Well you're freakishly tall." She said. "Touché…" He laughed, admitting defeat. "So what are you doing here? Waiting for your friend?" Meg sighed. "Unfortunately, yes. She has no sense of time what so ever." She rolled her eyes, crossing her legs in the arm-chair as she sat down. "We're supposed to be working on our history project, but she's late, again. And I can't start without her because she has the research." She told him, and he chuckled. "That's got to be annoying." Meg sighed. "Yeah. But as scatter-brained as she is, Kali does have brains in her head, as much as she forgets to use them." She laughed and Lucas joined in. "So you're just going to read until she gets here?" He asked her, a small smile on his face. "Well there's really not much else I can do." Meg said, holding up the book. "Thanks for telling me about these, by the way." Lucas smiled again. "My pleasure, Meg."
Little did Meg know, Kali was there. She was crouched behind the shelf and peering through the books, spying on her friend. Sure, she should have been doing the history project. But this was more fun. And besides, Meg needed a date. It wasn't her fault she wanted to make sure nothing bad happened to her friend. Although it was her fault she was using that as an excuse to spy. But oh well, life was just mean that way. She smirked as she sat there, watching as Meg chatted with Lucas, a smile that Kali knew well on her face. She could hear the wedding bells already!
…She just had to enlist the help of a few other people…and, of course, digimon.
