Christmas Statues
A King Weregarurumon Fic
Author's note: Okay, this is a nice wintry fic. It is a
Dakari. Why I wrote this is beyond me. I guess the Christmas spirit is making
nice toward everyone, even Davis. Enjoy.
C'mon, just one more minute, Davis thought to himself, pouring his attention on the clock. He
watched his math teacher drone about fractions. How can this guy stand
himself? He is so boring, Davis continued thinking. Then, the bell rang,
signaling the end of school and the start of Christmas vacation. Without
waiting for anyone, Davis leapt out pf his seat, put on his coat and bag, and
ran out the room. "Finally! I thought class would never end!" Davis
said to Ramon, one of his friends.
"You said it! I swear that the clock was moving
backward for a while!" he responded. "Hey, Davis, I am having a small
party at my house. Do you want to come?" he said.
However, Davis was not listening. His attention was
focused on something, or someone else. Kari Kamiya was the center of his
attention. She walked through the crowds and smiled at familiar faces. Davis
cleared his throat, and took in a deep breath. He knew he had to gather his
courage. Even with a simple glance, she could melt his knees and make him
stutter. She turned toward him and gave him a warm smile.
"Hi, Davis," Kari said.
"H-h-h-hi Kari," Davis barely stuttered. Kari
didn't seem to notice, because she continued to smile.
"I'm glad that we finally started our winter
vacation. I don't think I could have lasted another minute in English,"
she continued. "We were talking about winter poems, and I wasn't sure if
the one I wrote was good."
"Kari, stop doubting yourself. I am completely sure
that your poem was the best in the whole class!" Davis said.
"Really? You think so? I mean, you never even read
it," she replied.
"I don't have to hear it. Just knowing that you
wrote it makes me sure of it!" Davis encouraged.
"Thanks Davis, you are so sweet," Kari replied.
"Uh, Davis? My party? Are you coming, or you going
to talk with Kari for the rest of your life?" Ramon interjected, growing
weary of being ignored.
"Oh, sorry Ramon. It is Ramon, right?" Kari
asked. "I wouldn't want to insult you by calling you by the wrong
name."
"It is Ramon, so don't worry. You still bringing
your brother?" Ramon in turn asked.
"Yeah, and he's bringing friends, so be sure you
have a lot of food. Tai and his friends are pigs sometimes!" Kari giggled.
"And you, Davis? Are you coming?" Ramon asked,
turning toward Davis.
Davis seemed to think for a few seconds. After several
minutes of thinking, he finally said, "Sorry man. I have something to
do."
" That's all right. I'll see you later," Ramon
said while walking down the hall.
"Bye Davis," Kari said with a compassionate
smile. Davis nodded his head in agreement, and began walking home.
As soon as Davis entered his apartment, a Jun shaped blur
ran past him. "Hey Davis, do you know where my red dress that I brought
yesterday is?" she asked.
"Mom hanged it up in her room," Davis absent -
mindedly answered. He dropped his bag into the couch nearest to him and took of
his heavy jacket.
"Thanks little bro," Jun said. She dashed into
her mother's room and slammed the door. After at least 20 minutes of grunts and
muffled curses, Jun stepped out of her mother's room. Davis looked at his
sister in complete bewilderment. Jun was wearing a very small red dress,
covered with tiny red rubies. It was sleeveless, and showed lots of cleavage.
The skirt of the dress was extremely short, and showed off Jun's legs.
"Hey, where are you going in that?" Davis
inquired, still in half - shock.
" *I* am going to Ramon's party. I found out that
Matt was going, and when he sees this dress, he will flip," Jun said, her
voice rich with smugness. She opened a mini - makeup kit and applied some blush
on her cheeks.
"He'll flip all right, but not because of that
dress. As soon as he sees you, he is going to fly out of that house in 3
seconds flat!" Davis laughed, falling on the floor in tears.
"Poor, young, foolish, baby brother. You are too
immature cannot fully appreciate the full power of the female anatomy. Matt's
eyes will be glued onto me and me only for the whole night," Jun stated,
pointing towards herself every time she said me.
"I guess Mom and Dad can't appreciate the full power
of the female anatomy either, because they are not going to let you out of here
in that," Davis smirked.
"You wouldn't..." Jun started, her voice
gradually filling with anger.
"Yes, I would." Davis said. "But for a
certain price, I think I can forget this little predicament."
"This is full - blown blackmail!" Jun shrieked,
her face turning into a petite, crimson tomato.
"Yeah, but you'll get at least a two months
grounding," Davis countered.
Jun started to shiver with anger. Then, she relaxed her
muscles and hanged her head. She knew she was defeated. "All right twerp,
what do you want?" she asked, her head still hung downward.
"The painting and chisel set that Mom bought for you
last year," Davis answered.
"You mean the one I used to create a life - sized
wooden Matt replica?" Jun questioned, perplexed by Davis's peculiar
request.
"Yep, that's the one I'm talking about," Davis
responded.
"Great! So, I get to go the party, and you get the
set! It's in Dad's closet! See you Davis!" Jun hollered, put on her coat
and running out the door. Davis waved goodbye and headed toward his father's
closet. What he forgot was that his father's closet was extremely full of junk
and objects no one used anymore.
"Huh? NO!" Davis shouted as several tons of
objects landed on him. "That hurt," Davis lamented, rubbing his head.
He looked toward his left and saw the painting and chisels set. "There it
is!" he shouted. He pulled it out from under a bulky mound of toys. He
then realized that he was in of a clutter of junk. "Great," Davis
whined, and started to clean up everything. After shoving everything into the
closet again, he walked towards his room.
As soon as he walked inside of his room, he realized that
something was amiss. He carefully surveyed the room. It was very messy, with
clothes strewn everywhere. No, that is normal, he thought to himself. Then he
realized it. Demiveemon had not greeted him when he entered. "Okay
Demiveemon, you can stop hiding. You know I hate hide - and - go - seek,"
Davis said, starting to look under the clothes scattered all over the room.
"Banzai!" Demiveemon shouted. He gracefully
leapt from the fan on the ceiling and landed on Davis' head. "How is it
going Davis?" he asked, bearing a large grin on his face.
"Geez!
Don't do that Demiveemon! You scared the heck out of me!" Davis yelled,
surprised by his digimon's sudden entrance.
"Sorry Davis," Demiveemon said. He jumped off
Davis' head and landed in a pile of clothes. When he landed, his acute sense of
smell picked up the stench of Davis' clothes. "Yuck! Davis, why don't you
put these clothes in the laundry? They stink!" Demiveemon complained.
"I will, but I something to talk to you about,"
Davis replied. He knelt in front of Demiveemon, and asked, "Do you know
what Christmas is about?"
"Nope," Demiveemon truthfully answered.
"What is it about?"
"It's a holiday," Davis said, picking him up.
"When Christmas comes, you try to act nice toward everyone, and you give
them presents to show you care," Davis explained. "And you and I,
Demiveemon, are creating gifts for Kari and Gatomon."
"A gift for Gatomon? She would love that!"
Demiveemon exclaimed.
"Yep, and I know Kari would love it too," Davis
continued.
"So what are we going to do?" Demiveemon asked.
"We are going to create statues of them out of snow!
And we are going to do it with this!" Davis told Demiveemon, taking out
Jun's painting and chisels set. So, both Demiveemon and Davis went downstairs
to go outside. They walked through the door and stopped on the field in front
of their apartment.
"This is where we are going make the statues,"
Davis said. "There's plenty of snow and it's just perfect for creating
statues."
"Okay, Davis!" Demiveemon readily agreed.
Davis placed the set on the floor. "First, we're
going to create the bodies. It's going to be the outline, thickness, shape, and
size of the person you're making," Davis explained.
"Huh?" Demiveemon replied, completely
perplexed.
"Don't worry about it, just make the shape of
Gatomon. I'll help you along the way," Davis said.
The two started working, Davis making a replica of Kari,
and Demiveemon Gatomon. They worked diligently, making sure that nothing was
wrong. Davis finished first, proud with his work so far. He turned to
Demiveemon, and helped him. Within 5 minutes, both of them were finished
"Great! Now we fix it up! All we have to do is put
in the features, like eyes and arms," Davis explained. He took his wallet
out of his pocket and obtained two pictures. He gave one to Demiveemon and
said, "These are pictures of Kari and Gatomon. These will help us create
the features."
"This is a great picture of Gatomon! But, then any
picture with Gatomon in it is great!" Demiveemon asserted.
"I know, Kari gave them to me earlier this year.
It's a good thing they're up close, so that we can see the best of their
features," was Davis' response. "We're going to use these chisels to
help making the features.
Having done said that, they went back to work. Davis
started on Kari's face, and Demiveemon started on Gatomon's legs. They spent a
lot of time on this part, each wanting to create the most realistic person.
After an exhausting hour of work, the two finally finished. The each evaluated
each other's work and was pleased.
"Finally, we get to paint. We got to spray this
stuff on the snow before we start painting," Davis said, pulling a can out
of the set. "This stuff makes it easier to paint and to clean up."
"What about me?" Demiveemon asked.
"What about you?" Davis in return asked.
"What if paint gets on me? How am I going to clean
myself?" Demiveemon questioned.
"Oh, thanks for reminding me," Davis said. He
went back into the set and pulled out a painting smock. He then took a small
bandanna and wrapped it around Demiveemon. "There. Now, you do not have to
worry about getting dirty," Davis said.
After spraying both
replicas, they got to work. Davis had to help Demiveemon with his because
Demiveemon had no hands. After two hours of painting and colored snowball
fighting, they finally finished their masterpieces. Even though Demiveemon had
a smock, his face was an explosion of colors, ranging from brown to blue. His
friend, Davis, was just as colorful.
"That was fun!" Demiveemon shouted, jumping up
and down in the snow.
"Yeah..." Davis started. He looked skyward.
When they started, the sky was blue with a misty haze around the sun. Now, the
sky was pitch dark, with a few twinkling stars. "Let's go back inside,
Demiveemon. We're done here. We'll check on it tomorrow," he said.
Davis stepped with Demiveemon sleeping on his head. Little
guy must have been bushed, he thought to himself. He looked at the large
clock in the living room. 9:30. I hope Kari's home now, Davis reasoned.
He picked up the phone and dialed in Kari's number.
"Kamiya residence. Mrs. Kamiya speaking," Mrs.
Kamiya answered.
"Hello? This is Davis Motimya. Can I please speak to
Kari Kamiya?" was Davis' respectful answer.
"Davis? You are in luck. She just came home from
Ramon's party. She said she did not see you there. What happened?" Mrs.
Kamiya asked, making no effort to hide her concern.
"I'm okay. Can I please speak with Kari?" Davis
requested.
"Oh sure, just hold on a minute." Mrs. Kamiya
replied. She placed the phone down and called Kari. Davis heard the shuffling
of feet and finally someone the phone.
"Hello Davis? What did you want to speak
about?" Kari said sounding slightly aggravated.
Davis was taken aback by Kari's voice. Usually, it was
full of charm and amiable goodness. Now, it sounded as if it was dragged
through red - hot gravel. "Hi Kari. Sorry if I woke you up, but I have
something significant to ask you." Davis said.
"You didn't wake me up, it's just that
GATOMON," Kari replied, stressing Gatomon, "ripped up my favorite
pillow. Anyway, what did you want to ask me?"
"Demiveemon and I have something important to show
you. Can you and Gatomon come over tomorrow?" was Davis' question.
"I don't know. Gatomon doesn't like being in the
cold. Moreover, it's Christmas Eve. I want to spend it with my family,"
She replied.
"Please come over! It won't take more than a couple
of minutes. In addition, I will make some hot chocolate!" Davis shouted.
He waited for an answer and heard nothing. He started shouting. However, still
no answer. Then, he heard the phone being picked up.
"Sorry. I was asking Gatomon if she was up to coming
over. She said she would if she gets her hot chocolate with some whipped
cream." Kari replied.
A cat drinking hot chocolate with whipped cream? Davis thought to himself. Then he spoke. "She can get
anything as long as you both come!" Davis asserted.
"Great! We'll come over around 11:00. See you later
Davis!" Kari said. She then hanged up.
Davis noisily slammed the phone down on the receiver. He
started jumping up and down. He then punched the air in a crazed flurry of
jabs, rights, and uppercuts. Unfortunately, one of those crazed punches landed
right on Davis' nose. "Ah man!!" he moaned. He stumbled onto the
floor and started vigorously rubbing his nose.
"What's wrong Davis? Why are you on the floor?"
Jun asked. She closed the door, placed her pocketbook and jacket on the couch,
and crouched near him. "Did little Davis get a boo - boo? Let Jun fix
it," she mocked.
"Shut up!" Davis yelled. He got up and still
rubbed his nose. "How was the party?" he asked, after calming down a
bit.
At this moment, Jun turned a dark crimson - red. She
looked as if she was going to explode. "Matt kissed me!" she shouted,
a wide grin bursting on her face.
"Did he voluntarily do it, or did you put him in a
wrestling hold?" Davis teased.
"I'll ignore that. Anyway, a bunch of us girls were
trying to find him. Then, in a disguise, he tried to sneak past us. Luckily for
us, we noticed his hair. He ran right into our trap room full of mistletoe. I
had to fight to kiss my precious Matt, but it was completely worth it!"
Jun then, smile in complete bliss.
"Well, come on, what else happened?" Davis
impatiently asked.
"Okay! Anyway, I walked right up to him. He blushed
a little and then kissed me. On. The. Lips!!!" she then shrieked.
"Whoa! Lower down the decibel rate, okay?"
Davis replied. "Why would he kiss you on the lips? Doesn't he know what
danger he placed himself?" Davis taunted.
"Do not be jealous that *I* was kissed. Now, I have
the write this down in my dairy, so that this moment in time will always be
committed to memory!" She then skipped contentedly into her room.
Davis scratched his head and looked at the clock. It was
10:00. I guess I better get to sleep, he thought and went inside his
room. Demiveemon was still sleeping, curled into a small blue ball. Davis
rubbed the digimon's stomach and smiled when he saw Demiveemon stretch in
content. Davis then changed and went to sleep.
"Hey
Davis, hurry up!" Jun shouted. She was in a lilac robe and was angry.
"That is not *your* bathroom, you know!"
"It is not my fault you didn't bath last
night," Davis retorted. He continued to wash his hair. "Hey
Demiveemon, are you done?" he asked.
"Nope! I want to be my cleanest for Gatomon!"
Demiveemon responded. He took a washcloth and started to clean his ears.
"If you stay in the water any longer, you'll become
a prune!" Davis said. He picked up Demiveemon and dried him off. "Jun
is on the warpath and she means trouble," Davis said. He then dried
himself off and change. He then wrapped Demiveemon into his towel, so that no
one would notice him, and left.
"Finally! By the amount of time you took, someone
would think you're a girl!" Jun shouted. She then closed with a deafening
crash.
"At least I don't try as hard as you do!" Davis
retorted. He then took Demiveemon into his room. He looked at his watch. 10:50
was the time that he saw. Just in time, he thought. This gift would put Kari
into his arms. He wouldn't have to worry about TD competing with him.
"Hey Davis?" Demiveemon asked. He was under
Davis' towel and his large ears were clearly visible under the cloth. Davis
picked him up and asked,
"What?"
"Lets check on the statues. I think something bad
happen to them."
"Why would you think so?"
"I don't know. The little voice inside of me tells
something's wrong."
" Well, lets prove that voice wrong," said
Davis. He put on his coat and placed Demiveemon inside of his pocket, letting
Demiveemon's head peek out. He then went outside of his apartment, sure that
the statues were perfectly all right.
However, that did not happen. Instead of the two
beautiful statues that were just standing there yesterday, two little pitiful
mounds laid in their place. Not only the statues destroyed, but also the all of
the snow nearby had been either melted or transported away. "What? Who?
Why?" Davis mumbled absently - minded. He fell to his knees and hanged his
head. Demiveemon climbed out of his pocket and stood by him. He looked up to
Davis for an answer, but saw a strange picture. Davis had large tears in his
eyes. Many of them had already fallen on the ground, staining it with their
sadness.
"Why?" Davis shouted. He lifted his head,
causing several tears to spill. He didn't even try to wipe them away.
"This was the gift. It was for Kari. She was supposed to love it. She was
going to thank me. We were going to laugh and have a good time. Now," he
said, picking up the grass, "that's all gone. Why? Of all the things, why
did this go wrong? Kari will probably see this piece of garbage and spit on me.
KARI!!" Davis shouted.
"Yes Davis?" Kari asked. Davis abruptly turned
around and saw Kari with Gatomon. Kari was wearing leggings under a skirt and a
black sweater. Gatomon had her head wrapped with a scarf.
"Uh, nothing Kari," Davis lied. He moved in
front of the two mounds and blocked it with his body. Demiveemon mimicked him.
"What are you talking about Davis? You did ask me to
come here. What are you hiding?" Kari inquired. She stood on her tiptoes
to try to see over Davis.
"Kari, really it's nothing," Davis again lied.
He moved again in order to block Kari view path but fell. Demiveemon jumped out
of the way in order to not become crushed.
Kari saw the two mounds of snow, and raised her eyebrow
in confusion. "Davis, what are these?"
"Well, you see..." Davis started. He knew that
Kari was going to hate him forever for making come out in the cold to see
nothing. He looked Demiveemon and continued thinking. Gatomon was really
going to hate him. It's going to crush his little heart. He gulped and took
a deep breath. It had to be done.
"The thing that happened was that Demiveemon and I
created these statues of you and Gatomon. We worked hard on them and did a good
job. But, this morning, we found them like this. I'm sorry Kari. I'll
understand if you hate me," Davis said mournfully. He turned around and
walked toward his house.
"Davis, what did you make the statues with?"
Kari asked.
"With Jun's chisel and painting set," Davis
answered.
"The one she used to create that life - sized
Matt?"
"Yeah."
"The one TK thought was actually his brother for a
while?"
"Yes."
"You made a statue of me with that set?" Kari
asked. Her eyes started to sparkle. She ran toward Davis and hugged him. Davis
was completely thrown off by this sudden surge of emotion. He slowly hugged her
back.
"Well, not only me. Demiveemon made a statue of
Gatomon," Davis said. "Why does it matter?"
"What do you mean 'what does it matter?' Professional
artists use that same exact set to create their pieces of work! Only someone
who really cared would use that set to create a replica of me." Her eyes
started to water. She wiped away the tears and looked into Davis' eyes.
"Davis, even though those statues are gone, I know you put a lot of work
into it. You would never lie to me." She then kissed him on the cheek.
Davis blushed and touched his cheek. "Thanks Kari.
Thanks a lot." He then kissed her on her cheek. She in turn blushed.
"Demiveemon, did you make a statue of me?"
Gatomon asked. She slowly unfurled the scarf from around her head.
"Yeah, but..." Demiveemon started, but Gatomon
cut him off.
"That's all I need to know," Gatomon said. She
placed the scarf behind Demiveemon's head and pulled him toward her. When they
were as close as possible, Gatomon kissed Demiveemon on the forehead. At first,
Demiveemon just blinked. Then he realized what happened. A large grin broke out
on his face as he gave Gatomon a small peck on her cheek. Gatomon turned a deep
crimson red.
"Well, how about that hot chocolate?" Kari
said. She wrapped her arm around Davis' waist.
"Lets," was Davis response. Davis and the group
walked inside his apartment, to enjoy a cup of hot chocolate.
That was nice. Matt fans don't attack me. The thing with
Matt kissing Jun on the lips can be explained. First, it wasn't a love kiss.
Second, Matt was bonded by the moral Christmas code to kiss the person under
the mistletoe, regardless of who the person may be. Finally, Matt kissed Jun on
the lips because he was a kind person. That was Jun's Christmas present. ^_^.
Next thing, TK fans do not hurt me. I could not fit TK in
the story. In addition, making the story Takari would not have fit in with the
theme. I mean I bashed Davis a little bit, and his sister. You would not have
like me to bash TK and Matt, now would you? Please review.
