"Please?"
"For the thousandth time, no!"
It is a strange thing to watch a trainer and digimon argue, especially when you have never seen a digimon up close. Suffice it to say that the few people that had stayed in the passenger car were amazed to see one of the creatures from the events of four years ago tethered to a young girl with red hair.
In truth, the fact that they were arguing had long since lost its amusement. What had caught they're attention however was that every so often the creature would attempt to bolt but as hard as it tried to pull away the girl was able to hold her without so much as budging from her seat.
The girl sighed and whispered to her partner. "If you don't sit down I'm going to have to use the tranquilizer and you know I can't lift you."
"Stupid digizoid mesh." she said tugging at it.
"If you know what it is, then you know you can't break it so just sit down and relax." She sighed and remembered the words the Renamon had said to her when they were captured by a small batallion of corrupted knightmon. 'An impossible battle can only end in defeat or surrender. Surrender gives you time. Time is an advantage that outweighs all others.' "I need more time."
"It's time for us to be there. What's taking so long?"
"Ya know, I think I liked it better when 'I' was the one who was impatient and impulsive"
"Yeah, me too, but whacha gonna do?"
"Grab your muzzle and pay for obedience school."
By now all of the passengers had left the car with the exception of one old woman snoozing into a large bag of what looked like her groceries.
"I thought we had agreed to not joke about that." said Renamon indignantly.
" 'You' agreed and besides, who said I was joking?"
Renamon turned to the girl shocked and afraid with Rika shooting her a devilish grin. Rika proceeded to embrace the yellow vixen in a powerful hug and bury her face deep into Renamon's fur.
"I appreciate the sentiment but I can't breath."
The girl giggled and loosened her grip. "Sorry."
Renamon wrapped her slender arms around the girl, cradling her partner's head in her paw. Rika pulled back slightly and met her partner's cold blue eyes. They glowed with a warmth she had never seen before. Then they both realized what they were doing. They turned away from one another and a painful silence fell over them.
'The cabin. Ev'rything will be fine once we get to the cabin.' She sighed and got to her feet. The train was stopping now and she needed to grab they're baggage. "Where are your gloves?" she said looking about.
"Right here. I think I'll leave them off, they hurt my paws sometimes." She placed them in Rika's knapsack and stood to leave.
Strangely enough, the terminal was empty when they exited the train. There was a cab waiting and the two started off on the last leg of their trip.
Back on the train an old woman was chuckling softly to herself. "Ah, young love."
