Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon or any of the songs I may mention L The characters will most likely end up being out of character. This is a Rika/Ryo (my favorite couple) fic Jeri/Takato and Henry/Alice parings will be in as well.. Everyone is 18 minus Ryo he is 20.…

This is taking place while the tamers are on vacation during the summer before going into college

She was suffocating, there was darkness closing in all around her. She could hear the screams of Digimon and of people. "What is going on," She cried as she came to a dead end. Slowly she feels a hand wrap around her throat and she struggles to get free. Than she feels the grip tighten on her throat as she hears "You will not be able to stop us this time child."

Rika jolts awake for the third night in a row and slowly looks around the hotel room. "I had that stupid dream again!" Rika thought. Rika looked over at her two best friends to make sure they were still fast asleep. Rika could see that Jeri was clenching a pillow and mumbling Takato's name and Alice had her headphones in with the music just barely auditable to the outside world. With seeing her friends fast asleep, Rika slowly got out of bed and walked over to the door and put her shoes on. Rika decided she needed to go on a walk to clear her mind from the dreaded dream.

Rika slowly walked down to the beach and began to watch as the waves crashed up against the shore as the sun was starting to rise. Rika decided she was going to sit and watch as the sun began to rise. She slowly walked over to a rock formation and sat on top of the rock looking over at the deep sea below her feet. "It doesn't make any sense, there is no threats going on in this world or the digital world. I don't understand why I am having these nightmares." Rika thought as she watched the starfish one the edge of the rock. "Those dreams are giving me the creeps and I can't explain this to Jeri and Alice…I wish Henry was here, he is the easiest to talk to," Rika thought as she saw the sun rise to hit the ocean to make it look like it was glowing. Rika continued to watch the ocean as her thoughts became clouded with the fear from the dream. Soon Rika realized that it was about the time when Alice and Jeri would be getting up. Rika decided to head back to the beach house where they were staying for the summer.

Rika was walking back to the beach house when she felt like she was being followed, but she decided to ignore the feeling. She arrived at the beach hose just in time to hear Jeri freaking out about her missing for the third morning in a row. Rika slowly walked to the door when she saw a reflection in the glass of the door. Her heart skipped a beat when she realized it was Ryo. "Wait a minute…Ryo? What is he doing here?" Rika thought as she turned around to face the other tamer. "Hey Wildcat," Ryo said with a grin on his face. Rika just looked at him and turned and walked inside the beach house. "Rika there you are!" Jeri cried while she ran and hugged Rika. "You had her worried," Alice said with a small frown. "Sorry about that Jer, I wanted to watch the sun rise this morning," Rika said with a smile. Suddenly the door to the beach house opened. There stood the guys. "What are you guys doing here?" Alice asked with a surprised look on her face. Rika and Jeri both turned to see the other five tamers. "We have this beach house reserved," Takato said with a small blush on his face. Rika and Alice exchanged looks of annoyance. "You have to be kidding me," Rika said with annoyance in her voice. "No, he's not we reserved this beach house a month ago…" Henry said as he looked at Alice and Rika. "Oh I forgot about the double booking!" Jeri exclaimed with a small blush on her face. Rika and Alice both turned and looked at Jeri with flames in their eyes. "You knew?" Rika asked. "Ummm….yeah…" Jeri said with a small smile. Alice sighed and decided to clear the tension in the room, "Okay well since we already claimed our rooms, you guys can have the other ones…." Alice said while looking a Henry. Henry caught Alice looking at him and gave her a warm smile. "It's good to see you Alice," Henry said as he put his stuff down in the living room area.

Ryo looked over at Rika and noticed she wasn't trying to beat the living daylight s out of anyone and that worried him a little. "Hey, pumpkin what's wrong?" Ryo asked as Rika slowly walked out of the room everyone was in. "Nothing Akiyama," Rika said as she walked out side. Ryo left her alone to her thoughts and joined the other tamers in figuring out where everyone would sleep and how the summer was going to be now that all of them were there together.

That evening the tamers were having dinner and watching as the sun was setting across the horizon. Rika was looking at the sea and didn't notice when Ryo came and sat behind her. "Rika are you alright?" Ryo asked. Rika didn't reply and continued to watch the sea. After about ten minutes Jeri called out that everyone was heading back to the beach house. Rika slowly stood and walked back to the beach house ignoring the looks of concern from the other tamers.

The tamers had all fallen asleep a little over an hour ago and Rika was still awake looking up at the ceiling. Every time Rika would close her eyes she would see the same dark place that has been haunting her for the past three days. Rika slowly drifted into sleep that night only to be trapped in the same nightmare as the night before.

Rika was running down a dark corridor and she could see the blood splatter along the walls. She could hear the screams coming from every direction. Rika had slowly turned down a pathway that lead to a dead end. This is where the hand reached out and grabbed her throat once again. Only this time it did not speak, it just held her throat in it's hands hoping that everything would be over soon. Rika was struggling but her efforts were not getting her any where. She was able to break free for a moment, which allowed her to scream….
