"Secret Helpers"

OK, I should really start keeping track of the votes. There are about 3 who want a Taisuke, 7 who want Takesuke, 2 Yamasukes and 4 who want Kensuke. I hope that's right. Please enjoy and review!

TK was walking to school quickly as he tried to keep out of sight from Kari and Yolei so he could look for a certain mahogany haired girl to talk to her.

It was nice to have a friend that didn't cling to him or have nothing to talk about but the Digital World, so he was thrilled to find the girl and speak with her.

He spotted her sitting down on a bench as she ate some orange slices that she had with her in a small Tupperware dish.

Smiling brightly, he was about to call out her name, but was stopped when someone else called his name.

"TK!"

It was Kari and right behind her were Yolei and Cody who were carrying their own digimon with them.

"Where were you running off to?" Kari asked.

"Well, I was going to talk to Daisuke. Sora and Matt didn't find her waiting for them to walk home yesterday, so they got worried." He explained.

"Daisuke? As in Motomiya?" Yolei asked with a scoff.

"You know her?" Cody asked.

"She's such a brat and really dumb too." The lavender haired girl said.

Unknown to them, Viximon was spying and was sharing her mental link with Dai so the girl was hearing everything Yolei was saying about her.

"What are you talking about? She's a really nice girl." TK said with a frown.

He couldn't get his brother to shut up about how much of a sweetheart she was.

"Uh huh. Whatever." Yolei said.

Kari's hands were clenched into fists and as tried to calm herself so she wouldn't smack the older girl across the face for the things she was saying.

"Why would you say those things about her anyway?" Upamon asked.

"Because she always acts out, she never does her work. Her parents tell my parents all about her." Yolei said.

"Did they tell your parents that Dai has two mental disabilities?!" Kari yelled as she let her anger get the best of her.

TK, Cody and Yolei gasped at that while Dai grew stiff as she heard what Kari had just yelled.

The child of Light was glaring heatedly at the taller girl as she tried to hold herself back from cursing at her or even getting violent.

"This is why Tai and I kept her away from you people. We didn't want her to get hurt. Her parents are monsters even though she's one of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet. Do you even think about why she has trouble in class? No! You just insult her without knowing a thing about her." Kari raged out.

Gatomon and Patamon were watching from a tree as they listened to the things Kari was saying.

Dai stood up as she sent a message to Viximon to get into her bag and the vixen did as she was told.

She then walked over to the group, Cody noticing her and soon enough the others all did as well.

Kari looked over at her friend to see that the tanned girl was giving her a kind smile.

"Dai." She said.

"Just drop it, Kari. I don't need you to fight all of my battles. I can do that myself, but thanks anyway." Dai said.

TK and Kari both smiled at this.

"My whiskers are twitching. Something's about to go down." Gatomon said.

"Like what?" Patamon asked.

They watched as Dai looked over to Yolei and walked over to the taller girl.

"So you think I'm a freak. I never told anyone about my dyslexia and ADHD because I didn't want to be treated badly. What amazes me is that you had no idea about this and still felt like you had a right to insult me. What, are you Miss Perfect or something? Are you the freaking Queen of the World?" she asked.

She still had a smile on her face, but her voice was filled with anger.

"I-"Yolei chocked out.

"How dare you? You think you know everything, but you know nothing. Leave me alone and I'll leave you alone. I don't want your pity. That'd just be an insult that you be nice to me because you know I'm a mental case."

With that being said, Dai turned on her heel and stalked off with her head held high as she felt a great weight had risen off of her shoulders.

Viximon was smiling proudly at her partner as she settled down into the bag.

After that day, Dai and Renamon were in the Digital World as they silently followed Matt, Gabumon, TK, Patamon, Kari, Gatomon, Cody, Aramdillomon, Yolei and Hawkmon.

When the group were captured by the Vegiemon that were being led by RedVegiemon, Dai signaled for Renamon to destroy the tower.

Firamon then flew over and kicked RedVegiemon down as he rammed into the control spire which stunned the group.

"Who is that digimon?" Matt asked.

"I don't know, but look! She has the Crest of Courage on her." Gabumon said making everyone gasp.

The angel/fox hybrid looked over at the spire as she sent out her Flare Storm on it, taking out a chunk of it as the spire crackled with electricity and Matt's digivice beeped and glowed.

"Gabumon digivolve to…GARURUMON!"

Garurumon then chased the Vegiemon off as he blasted them with his blue Blaster, destroying the dark rings around them.

"That worked." Gatomon said.

"Hey, where's the Blue Digidestind?" Armadillomon asked he looked around.

The others all looked around the area too, but saw no one else there.

"Excuse me, but where is your partner?" Hawkmon asked Firamon.

"That is not your concern. She has decided we will join when we are ready." She said.

"Huh? But we need her now." Yolei said.

Icy eyes stared her down making the girl back off from the harshness that were in them before Firamon turned and flew off.

"Well, that went great." Patamon said.

"Hey, guys!" someone called.

It was Tai, Agumon, Izzy and the Gotsumon who all rushed over to them.

"What happened here?" Tai asked.

"Garurumon, how did you digivolve?" Agumon asked his friend.

"I'm not sure." The wolf said.

"Izzy, the Blue Digidestind's digimon came to help us but she wasn't here." Cody announced.

"She? The Blue Digidestind is a girl?" Tai asked.

"Why aren't they here with you?" Izzy asked.

"Oh, you mean that nice human girl who saved Unimon from the Emperor?" a Gotsumon asked

The group all looked at the Gotsumon as they seemed to be speaking fondly of this new girl.

"When did she save a Unimon?" TK asked.

"It was just yesterday." Gotsumon2 said.

"How do we keep missing them?" Patamon asked.

"They must be hiding as they help us without being seen." Gatomon said with a thoughtful look.

(Back in the Motmiya apartment…)

Viximon was sitting on the couch since the Motomiya parents were gone for a two week long business trip and Jun was off at her friend's house for the night leaving Dai alone with her vixen.

They were just watching an anime show called Naruto and as the vixen watched, she became very interested in the story line of the poor boy with a fox demon sealed inside of his body and was treated cruelly because everyone saw him as the demon itself.

"How dare they. Not all foxes are hideous creatures. We are stunning beings and are peaceful as long as no one is threatening us." Viximon huffed.

Dai chuckled at this as she ran a comb through the sunny fur making the fox purr a bit at the pleasant feeling.

She then thought back to the black tower and how it seemed to control the dark rings and stopped digimon's digivolutions.

"What if the Emperor puts up more of those towers? There can be a lot more dangers out there." She said.

"We will stop him as long as we never give up." Viximon said.

Dai nodded at this and then checked the time, then stood up as she placed her fox down to head for the kitchen.

Viximon watched her curiously as she saw her partner working on cooking some ramen and seemed to be doing it without reading any instructions as she worked.

It was like she made worked on preparing her meals based on instinct and didn't need to read to know what she was doing and this made the fox admire her partner even more.

Dai looked over at Viximon and flashed her a true smile.

"Hope you're hungry." She said.

"Of course I am. It would be pleasant to try something you cook." Viximon said as she swiftly hopped over to her.

She watched as the food was prepared, the vegetables being cut and the broth being mixed with the noodles and vegetables.

Her nose twitched as she took in the scent with a happy grin as her fluffy tail swayed back and forth as her stomach rumbled for the food.

If she were an ordinary digimon she would be jumping around begging for food, but she was a prideful and respectful digimon who had great self-control over her emotions and wouldn't humiliate herself.

It seemed that Dai was able to tell this and gave a small giggle.

The duo then enjoyed the rest of their evening eating the ramen and then took a nice long bath before they got ready for bed and crawled under the covers to have a nice night of sleep.

(Somewhere in Tamachi…)

In his darkened room, a 13 year old boy was typing on his laptop as he placed a few strands of mahogany hair on a scanner that was connected to his computer.

"Let's see who you truly are." He said.

As the scanner worked, images started popping up on the computer screen along with some school records, a birth certificate, test results and some medical records.

His bright blue eyes scanned the screen as he read all of the information he was given and felt stunned at learning the girl had two disabilities, but felt more intrigued by her.

"Ken, I've brought you a snack." A woman said as she walked into the room.

"I thought I said to not come into my room while I'm working." He said trying to keep the coldness out of his tone.

His mother walked over to his desk and set the tray with celery and carrot sticks down by his side and then gave him a small smile as she looked at the computer screen to see the picture of a girl with tanned skin, mahogany hair and warm chocolate colored eyes.

"Is this a friend of yours?" she asked.

"You can say that." Ken said.

The woman smiled at this since he never spoke of any friends or even brought someone over to the apartment.

"Well, I hope to meet her. She seems like a nice girl and pretty too." The woman said before she walked out.

Once he was sure she was gone, Ken Ichijouji sighed in annoyance as he looked over the picture of the girl and read about her interests.

"I'm going to need to lock that door." He said.

His lips curved into a smirk when he saw that this girl he was after was the captain of the Odaiba Middle School male soccer team.

This was perfect.

He would get to meet her face to face when his Tamachi team went to the big game against Odaiba next week and he was looking forward to it greatly.

Leaning back in his seat, Ken smirked as he stared at the picture of the girl.

"I hope to meet you on the battle field and then soon have you at my side as my Queen…Daisuke Motomiya." He said.
