Chapter 8- One of Them
Selene
I went into my room silently, Malakaimon was still fast asleep. Had Ken and I almost kissed? No he wouldn't have tried that, he seemed kind of shy around me. 'Oh well' I thought to myself. I put my pajamas on and lay down in bed with Malakaimon. I was used to sleeping at night now that I was on earth, I had to sleep at night or else I could miss something. I fell asleep thinking about my time on earth.
I woke up the next morning to a loud meowing sound. I sat up and saw Malakaimon staring at me, making the sound. "Good Morning!" she meowed. I laughed "Fine I'll get up, your just lucky I don't need much sleep." I jokingly said to her. She smiled and hopped off the bed. I followed her into the bathroom and started to get ready for the day. I spelled my hair to make it reach my waist, then I put it in a ponytail leaving one strand out. Then I put on an outfit that seemed like it would fit in Japan, they had some crazy styles here. I put my digivice and email device in the pocket of my jeans; I picked up Malakaimon and walked out into the kitchen. Mrs. Ichijouji was standing by the counter making coffee. There was a man at the table, I guessed. He was reading the paper, but no Ken. "Good morning Misses and Mister Ichijouji." I said. "Oh good morning Selene, how did you sleep?" Mrs. Ichijouji asked me. "Good thank you. Good morning Mr. Ichijouji." I said. He looked up from his paper and said "You must be the Selene girl I have heard so much about." I smiled and nodded; He stood up and came over to shake my hand. He looked at Malakaimon and I said "My partner digimon, I have Malakaimon and Ken has Wormmon." He nodded and went back to his paper. " do you know where is Ken is?" "He left already but he did leave you this note." She reached into her apron and pulled out a piece of paper. She came over and handed it to me. "Thank you." I put Malakaimon on my shoulders and read the note. 'Selene, we went to the digital world through a port at our school. We will probably be here all day, don't worry I will do what you asked and not mention you unless they ask. If they ask I will just say that I don't know anything more than they do. If you want to come find us go to my computer and say 'digiport open' then when it appears (You will be able to tell) then put your digivice up to the port. You know the rest. Find us using the tracker on your digivice. Maybe see you soon, Ken (and Wormmon)' I sighed and said "I guess I'm going to the digital world." "Oh would you like some breakfast first Selene?" Ken's mother asked me. "Um no thank you." Malakaimon looked at me and cleared her throat. I rolled my eyes and said "Okay I guess maybe a little bit." Malakaimon jumped onto the table and I said "Malakaimon get off the table, sit in a chair." She hopped into a chair and put her front paws on the table. I sat down next to her as Mrs. Ichijouji put a plate of eggs and toast in front of me. Malakaimon grabbed a piece of toast with her mouth and began munching on it. I took the other piece and quickly finished it. I thanked her and went into Ken's room followed by my partner. "Okay Malakaimon, Ken said all we do is say Digiport open." The computer made a beeping sound and a futuristic looking shape appeared on the screen. "You ready?" I said looking at her. She nodded and I put my digivice to the screen. The bright light appeared and again I felt the weird pulling feeling. I opened my eyes and said "Malakaimon, I mean Panthermon your back to normal!" "Yep I am now what's the plan?" I told her my plan and we began tracking the others. After walking for a while I said "Okay this is taking way to long, Panthermon we are going to fly and then start the plan." She nodded and I quickly transformed. "New Moon." There now even if they did see me they wouldn't know. "Come on Panthermon." I picked her up and she turned invisible with me, huh I had never tried making someone or something else invisible. We flew to the digidestined; they were helping some digimon build a few houses. I flew down near them and looked closer. Stingmon and a few other digimon turned around and faced me. I panicked before I remembered I was invisible. "I swear I felt something there." One of the digimon said. "I felt it too." Another said. Ken turned and looked me right in the eyes like he could see me. I flew back into the woods and said "Full moon." Then I powered down and said "Ready Panthermon?" she nodded and we walked out in the open headed for the others. Davis was the first to notice me "Huh?" he said. Everyone turned and a shocked expression crossed Ken's face. I barely shook my head as if to say 'pretend you don't know what happened.' He nodded and turned to Stingmon, he whispered something to him and Stingmon nodded too. We stopped a few feet from them and one of the girls; Kari I think was her name said "Hi, are you a digidestined too?" I nodded and a blonde boy said "How did you get here?" I gestured to the way we had come, still not speaking. Davis said "Can't you talk?" I smiled and nodded. He sighed loudly and said "Then talk!" I shook my head and smiled. I heard Panthermon chuckle very softly. The little boy said "What's your name?" I shook my head again and I saw Ken open his mouth but quickly close it. Kari's digimon walked over to us and looked at Panthermon. "What is your name?" she asked her. Panthermon looked up to me and I put my arm down for her to climb up onto my shoulders. She looked at me again and I nodded once. "Panthermon." She said loudly wrapping her tail around my neck like a scarf. "Who is your partner?" The other digimon asked her. Panthermon looked at me and I said "My name isn't important right now." The other girl, Yolei came over to me and said "Why are you here?" "Simple, I'm digidestined and I need to help the digital world. From what I know the job of the digidestined is to protect the real world and the digital world, isn't it?" "Well yes, it is but…" Yolei said. "Then let me help you, Panthermon and I can help you build the houses." "Rebuild." Yolei said. I saw Ken look at the ground out of the corner of my eye. "Oh okay, well rebuild then." She sighed but turned back to her work.
We spent the day helping them with the houses; I didn't have to ask why we were rebuilding instead of building. I got to know each of them, even Davis. I also learned more about being digidestined, it was more than just protecting the worlds, we have to take care of the digimon in the digital world as well. That's why they were here; these houses had been destroyed by the digimon emperor and his minions. When we finally finished Yolei said "Meet us in the digital world again tomorrow, I'll email you where." "Thank you and I will. By the way what are all your names?" Kari said "I'm Kari and this is Nefertimon." The blonde boy said "I'm TK and my partner is Pegasusmon." Yolei said "I'm Yolei and Aquilamon is my digimon." The little boy said "My name is Cody and this is Digmon." Ken looked at me and smiled "I'm Ken." I nodded and said "Who is your digimon?" "That's Stingmon." I smiled and turned to Davis. His face was almost a frown but not quite. "I'm not telling you my name until I know yours." I smiled and said "Oh I know your name already; I was just trying to be nice. But who is your digimon?" Davis turned away from me but his digimon said "I'm Exveemon; don't mind Davis he takes some getting used to." "HEY!" Davis yelled. Everyone but him laughed. "Well I guess I'll see you all tomorrow." We said our goodbyes and I walked to the edge of the forest. I turned to face them and said "By the way my name is Selene." They all got shocked looks on their faces except Ken and Stingmon; oops they could be in trouble. "C'mon Panthermon." I said to her and we went back to our digiport.
Ken
Selene had been helping us for a while; it seemed like no one suspected who she was. When we finished Yolei said "Meet us in the digital world again tomorrow, I'll email you where." Selene smiled and said "Thank you and I will. By the way what are all your names?" Kari said "I'm Kari and this is Nefertimon." TK went next, "I'm TK and my partner is Pegasusmon." Yolei said "I'm Yolei and Aquilamon is my digimon." Cody was more accepting of her than he was of me originally "My name is Cody and this is Digmon." I looked at her and smiled "I'm Ken." I barely held back laughing. She nodded and said "Who is your digimon?" she was very thorough in keeping an act. "That's Stingmon." She smiled; she looked beautiful as a human. The way she had styled her hair made it look even longer than it was, and the outfit she wore made her look like someone from Japan not someone from wherever she was from. She turned to Davis last. "I'm not telling you my name until I know yours." He said to her. She slyly smiled and said "Oh I know your name already; I was just trying to be nice. But who is your digimon?" Davis turned away from her but Exveemon said "I'm Exveemon; don't mind Davis he takes some getting used to." "HEY!" Davis yelled. Everyone but him laughed. "Well I guess I'll see you all tomorrow." She said, we said our goodbyes and then she and Panthermon walked to the edge of the forest from which they had come. She had never told them her name, when did she plan on doing it? Or did she plan on never telling them? She turned around to face us before disappearing into the forest, and she said "By the way my name is Selene." Everyone else looked shocked but me and Stingmon, we were going to get some grief from the others. She said something to Panthermon and they walked away. Davis was the first to speak "Wait wasn't that fairy chick's name Selene?" Wow Davis. "Duh Davis! That's why we are all confused!" Yolei yelled at him. Cody looked at me and said "Ken, do you know anything else that we don't?" They all looked at me and I said nervously "No, um I don't know anything. Uh I'm just trying to figure out how she could have found out she was digidestined." Yolei looked at me, she wasn't buying it. "You knew all along didn't you! Tell us the truth!" She screamed. I backed away slowly. Yolei was scary when she was mad. "Okay fine I knew the whole time, but I didn't know she was going to do what she just did. And I didn't know anything until after she originally left; I called her and told her the truth about the digital world and digimon." "YOU WHAT!" Davis yelled he could be just as frightening as Yolei. I felt a light tap on my shoulder and turned around, no one. Then while everyone else was talking to each other I heard a soft whisper in my ear. "It's me, sorry for leaving you to them. I didn't know they were so temperamental." Selene was here? But she just left. "Tell them everything, except that I'm here and what happened on the roof." I barely nodded and said normally "Guys, you want to know what exactly happened?" Kari, TK, and Cody nodded. Davis and Yolei said "Duh!" Selene was right, they were temperamental. "Okay so I called Selene and she came to my house. I told her all about the digital world and digimon, then I planned on going through the digiport and showing her the digital world, but somehow she came with me. I got the signal of a digi-egg so we followed it, I hoped it would be amour digivolution for Wormmon but it turned out to be Panthermon. I tried to pick it up and when I touched it a d3 went into Selene's hand, like what happened to you three. She was able to pick up the egg so Panthermon appeared. Then when we were headed back to the digiport, Arukenimon appeared and attacked us." "That's what you emailed us asking for help." TK said. I nodded and continued "So Selene and Panthermon took care of her." "What do you mean?" Yolei asked. "Well Arukenimon won't bother us or any one every again." I said carefully. "SHE KILLED ARUKENIMON!" Yolei yelled. "She decided that it was more important to save all the lives of the other digimon than to spare Arukenimon life." Stingmon said. "Yeah so, after that we went back to my house and I told her she could stay with me and my parents until she could find a place for herself. My parents know that she is new to being digidestined but they don't know she is a fairy. And my mom really seems to like her." "That's the whole story?" Davis asked. I nodded and I heard a very soft voice say "Full moon." Everyone looked surprised and Yolei looked like she was going to murder Selene. I turned and Selene and Panthermon were right behind me, sitting on Stingmon's shoulders. She wasn't transformed. "Yes, that is the whole story. I was hoping that if you got to know the real me before you found out who I really was then you would be more willing to let me stay and help you. I'm not evil." "Then why did you kill Arukenimon?" Yolei yelled. Selene leaped down off Stingmon landing gracefully next to me. "From my understanding, she was the cause of the digimon emperor, the enslavement of thousands of digimon, the almost destruction of earth, the almost destruction of you and your digimon. Shall I continue?" Selene said confidently counting off each thing on her fingers. Yolei looked down and said "No, I guess you're right. Arukenimon wasn't a real digimon anyway. But it just sounds so evil, killing a digimon." "You said yourself that she wasn't a true digimon, so you shouldn't feel upset." "Okay, I'm sorry. Friends?" she came forward. Selene nodded and said "Friends." They shook hands and Selene said "So do you still want me to go home?" "No of course not." Kari said. Kari was so nice to everyone, even me when I was first freed. All of them except Kari and Davis thought I was actually killing real digimon, they didn't know about the control spire digimon until Palimon had told them. I smiled at Kari, she winked. We had a connection; she had gone to the dark ocean just as I had when I first came to the digital world. She knew how it felt there. "I guess I'll see you all tomorrow then?" "Yes you will, I will email you." Yolei said.
