"You are not allowed to go and that's final, Rika!"
"I don't care, I'M GOING!"
"No, YOU ARE NOT!"
The argument between Mrs. Makino and Rika raged on.
"Why can't I go to Henry's birthday party?!" Rika yelled.
"Because you either just sit in your room all day, or are at the park! You don't do anything around this house, so you don't deserve rewards! You have to earn those kinds of things!" Her mom screamed.
"Yes I do! I take care of the chores around here! I do errands for you! And I even put on stupid, idiotic dresses!" She shot back. Her mom acted like she didn't do anything around there!
"First off, your grandmother is usually doing to chores! Two, when was the last time i asked you for an errand? And three! I ask you to do it! I don't force those dresses on you! Besides, they look beautiful on you, and all you do is treat them as if they were a fungus of some sort! Just go to your party, but don't plan on coming back!"
"FINE! I WON'T!" Rika screamed before slamming the door behind her.
Renamon was waiting outside for her. She could sense Rika's tension, other than the fact that she just heard the whole argument. They were both silent, apart from Rika's growling, the whole way to Henry's house. They got onto her doorstep, and Rika did what she was best at. Hiding her emotions. She rang the doorbell. Renamon also put on her normally emotionless look. Henry and Terriermon met them at the door.
"Come on in guys. The party's outback." Henry said as Rika and Renamon walked in.
"And Henry means in the backyard, not the Australian outback." Terriermon commented.
"Not right now Terriermon." Renamon quietly whispered as they walked past.
*****
Everything during the party went great. Rika even forgot about her argument with her mom. It was too common an event to remember. The argument anyways. The party continued until after nightfall. Everyone had a great time, especially Rika. Finally people started leaving. Kenta and Kazu were the first to depart. Around ten o'clock Rika began saying her goodbyes. Renamon and the rest of the digimon were sleeping over at Henry's house, so that meant she had to walk home alone. Takato was leaving at about the same time also. Henry saw them both to the door.
"Bye Henry!" Takato said, smiling as he started walking down the block.
"Bye Takato!" Henry said as he smiled and waved.
He saw that Rika was just standing there, looking in the direction of her house. She looked troubled in a way. Even though it was an emotionless stare, Henry knew her long enough to know that something was wrong. He watched as Rika's hand twitched slightly.
"Do you need a ride home Rika? I can ask my mom, I'm sure she wouldn't mind..."
"I'm fine Wong. I'm a big girl, I can make it home." Rika said sharply.
With that she began to walk down the street. Ryo started out about ten minutes after she did. He wanted to make sure she got home safe. His house was only a little farther than Rika's. He was quick with his feet that night. She took her time though. Her mother had probably already forgiven her, like always, but she still took her time. She'd rather face 20 mega level digimon than go home now. As she was walking past an alleyway, she heard a deep, sluggish voice.
"Hey little girrrrl. Whacha doin' out this late?"
"None of your business freak."
Out of the shadows appeared five guys, each of them being about twice her size, the leader easily being the biggest, strongest, and dumbest in Rika's opinion. They began to circle her, like a pack of wolves or sharks would their next victim. The leader stopped right in front of her. He smirked and brought up his hand to her chin.
"Tell me gorgeous, what are you doin' out this time of ni..."
He never got to finish his sentence, because a fist connected with the side of his jaw, making him fall backwards. One of the other thugs sprang at her, and she kicked them in the stomach before dashing into the alleyway. It was a dead end though. Him and his four thugs caught up to her easily. She backed into the brick wall that formed the end of the line. The leader stepped in front of them all, wiping the trickle of blood that ran from his lips to his chin away. Before she could react, his minions pinned her body against the wall. He walked up to her and snarled.
"Nobody punches me and gets away with it. Especially no little firecracker. Got it?"
"You are gonna regret those w..."
She couldn't get the rest out as he slammed a fist into her stomach. She would have lurched forward in pain, but she pinned to the wall. Just then Ryo walked past. She tried to scream out, but a hand clamped over her mouth and she was dragged into the shadows by the front of her shirt, getting the broken heart on the front torn off in the process. Ryo stopped, thinking he heard something, and he thought he saw a movement out of the corner of his eye. He squinted his eyes, but he didn't see anything. He continued walking. After a good minute or two, they uncovered her mouth. She was completely scared. She couldn't break their grip on her. Being fought against, and not being able to fight back was one of the things she loathed and feared. They continued taking turns beating her up, so as they didn't get tired. She screamed into the night as she continuously took blows to every part of her body. By how they continued hitting her, it was obvious they enjoyed her screaming. When the fun of it finally left, they abandoned her in the shadows, unconscious.
Ryo, who was walking stopped dead in his tracks. He had definitely heard a scream somewhere behind him, maybe about a couple of blocks back. He shook his head and continued walking. It had to have been his imagination, because he thought it sounded like Rika. But that was impossible; she had to be somewhere up ahead of him. She was probably at home right now, going through her digimon cards, making up new strategies for upcoming battles. He was overreacting. As he passed her house, he noticed that there were voices coming from inside. On closer inspection, he noticed that the window was open slightly. After fighting over whether he should go and eavesdrop or not, he ran over and sat under the window. The voices inside were definitely those of her mom and grandmother, but there was panic and anger hinted in them.
"Mom, I'm getting worried. I just called the Wong residence, and they said she left almost an hour ago! It only takes her about a half an hour to get home!"
"It's alright honey. The girl is probably fine, and I bet she'll be home soon."
Ryo sat there, horrified. Where could Rika be? She left ten minutes before he did, meaning she must be home by now. He got up quickly and hurried back in the direction of Henry's house. Taking the road that she always takes home was slightly difficult. There were so many streetlights, and stop signs, and roads to cross. He wasn't the patient type, making him irritated that he had to go this way. He dashed across were the alleyway met the street and skid to a stop. He cautiously looked into the alley. Something there had caught his eye earlier, and it had caught his eye once again. There, on the ground, was a piece of cloth. He picked it up carefully, as though it were a diamond, and studied it while it rested in his palm. He knew it well. How many times had he seen it being worn proudly on her shirt? It was Rika's. A rat ran past, making him switch his gaze to a small river of red liquid. He followed the stream of blood's path with his eyes, and saw a lifeless heap in the shadows.
"RIKA!"
