The Trip to Mt. Fuji

        It was a cold winter day as seventeen year-old Takato was walking home from school.  On his way he made a stop at Guilmon's hideout to give Guilmon his daily meal.

        "Hello Takato!" greeted his friend.  Takato smiled and handed some bread to Guilmon. 

        "Wuh wama wah wowah, " said Guilmon with his mouth full. 

        "Okay Guilmon.  Now, say that again, but without food in your mouth."  Guilmon took a big swallow and gave a satisfying sigh.

        "I said that Girl Tamer came over and asked for you."  Takato put his arm around Guilmon.

        "Now Guilmon, you should call her Jeri."  Guilmon fell anime style.

        "No…not Jeri, Rika!"  As soon as he said that Takato ran out of there heading towards Rika's house.

        Takato made it to Rika's house and rang her doorbell while gasping for breath.  Rika answered the door surprised to see Takato.

         "Rika…what…did…you…want…to…talk…about…" Takato began still gasping for air.

        "Okay Gogglehead.  Now, say that again only when you stop gasping…" Takato took a big breath and started over.

        "What did you want to talk to me about?"

        "Well come in and I'll show you."  (A/N:  Stop thinking what you're thinking pervert because that's not what she meant.)

        Rika showed Takato to her room where he saw Henry and Jeri already there.  They were looking at Rika's computer as though in a trance.

        "Someone from Mt. Fuji claims that he's a Tamer and that there's a Digimon on the loose.  I don't believe it, but it's obvious that your friends here do."  Takato put a hand on Rika's shoulder.

        "You know, for someone who's been with us for four years, you still refuse to say you're one of us.  It's sad, since we've always considered ourselves to be your friends."  Takato took his hand off Rika and went to the computer screen, leaving Rika in the midst of her own thoughts (A/N:  That was such a cool line!).

        "So what's the problem?"  Takato said.  Henry looked at Takato as if he was asking for some kind of answer to what ever he was doing.

        "I've been trying to trace the message that Rika got.  Here, listen to this."  A person's face appeared with a saddened look.

I've been searching for you guys.  You are the only Tamers closest to Mt. Fuji.  See, I've been fighting off a Mega Digimon, Ransunomon.  He started out as the Champion Digimon, Peromon.  I thought he was just another Digimon from the Digital field.  I was wrong.  I found out that after some time, the same Digimon that I defeated came back.  I have a theory that Digimon are reborn after they're defeated.  So anyways, Peromon came back.  My partner Bonemon, and I defeated him again.  After awhile, he came back as the ultimate Digimon, MegaPeromon.  It took some time, but we defeated him.  Yet again he came back, as Ransunomon.  Now, I need help.  Please, you have to help me.           

        "Well, the message is definitely in Mt. Fuji, but the only way we can ever find out if the message is real or a trap is to go there," said Henry, "But we all have to agree on going."

        "So what's stopping you, huh?" said Rika, "You guys can all go."

        "We're a team, Rika," Jeri said, "We all have to go."

        "Fine," Rika said.

        "Then it's settled.  We leave tomorrow morning."
