Chapter 6: Shinya's Bigger Role

Zoe's POV

The two girls left DATS headquarters after dealing with telling Thomas that Relena had to meet more people her age. Thomas finally agreed after much persuasion.

The two sat into the and they had not turned into the street when Zoe was bombarded with questions;

"Are there any cute guys?"

"What do they teach there?"

"Are they nice?"

"Is there anyone you don't like?"

Zoe didn't know what to say so told her best friend to let Gatomon out.

"Oh, yeah, Gatoman Realize, sorry gatomon I know you don't like it in there"

"Don't like is a weak word for it, but hate too much of a strong word. Anyway where we going?"

"Zoe's friends house…"

"Just a friend?" Gatomon cut in looking at Zoe

"Yes he's just a friend; you're just like Relz, that's the first think she asked me too."

"I can't help it, I'm her digimon, were similar"

"So it's a boy?" Relena just had to say that

"Yes it's a boy," Zoe said getting annoyed, 'never bring up boys with both of them there, and as there always together, therefore never talk about boys', she thought to herself.

"Don't you think it's a bit suspicious that she met the boy today, and is already going to his house, what would her parents say, Gatomon?"

"I don't know what her parents would say, and it is a bit suspicious, what do you say Zoe?"

"My parents wouldn't mind, and I didn't meet them today, I met then even before I met you guys."

"Them?"

"Yes them, the legendary warriors"

The digimon and her partners went from joking to very serious…

"You've got to be careful Z, don't let them know that digimon are here, they might find out about DATS"

"Someone's got to deal with the my kind that come here to cause trouble, they might not work out that it's DATS but they'll think off something similar"

"Don't worry, they won't find out, it's not as if there a digimon living in there homes, is it?"

"I guess not, but it might happen," Relena said uneasily

"Zoe, the house is here, you don't have to go do you?"

"Yes I have to, I told them I would, not worry nothing will happen."

She stepped out of the car I opened the gate heading toward the front door. Her arm still hurt from the Snimon attack, even though it didn't hurt then. She rang the doorbell and could hear the limo driving away. She waited until the door opened which wasn't long.

"Hey Zoe, come in everyone's in the living room."

They walked into the room, where Zoe could see everyone watching TV. JP was sitting on the chair closest to the popcorn, which looked almost full.

Tommy was sitting on the floor, with Shinya, and both were staring at the TV while eating from their won bowl which was between the two.

Kouichi was sitting in the corner chair, which Zoe felt was the darkest corner in the room. He turned to look at her, and gave a small smile before turning back to the TV.

Next to him sat Kouji, even though where Kouichi sat was full of darkness, where Kouji sat there was nothing but light. Or that's what she thought; apparently no one else noticed this.

"Zoe aren't you going to sit down." Takuya called from the floor next to next to where the twins where sitting.

"Yeah, I am, I'm just thinking about how much it's changed since I last came here, So what you watching" she ended on a happier note taking the seat near the door, which was left for her.

"Oh, just watching the Simpsons movie." Tommy replied not taking his eyes of the screen.

"Didn't that come out a long time ago?"

"Yeah, but we wanted to watch it" JP continued.

"Oh. OK"

They all sat there for about 20 minutes, before Shinya said he had to go do his geography homework.

"I swear that teacher hates us!" he said waling into his room.

"She hates everyone," Takuya called out "Especially you!"

Zoe didn't know why but she felt the need that check on the boy.

"I'm going to the Bathroom"

"Too much information." JP called as she left.

As she walked to Shinya's room she saw a strange white light shining under the door, she opened the door to see Shinya sitting by his desk, holding a digiegg and a DATS digivice.

"I just had to say it, didn't I?"

*****DATS Headquarters******

"Beep… Beep…Beep…"

Marcus looked up to see the control screen showing a red dot.

"Great, another digiegg" he said to himself.

"Can I go?" he turned around on his swivel chair to see Keenan standing in the door frame.

"Yeah, I guess." He said he didn't even know who lived there so was about to tell Keenan to wait, but he was already out of the room, although he was never really in it.

*****Shinya's Room*****

"Zoe what is this?" Shinya asked pointing to the digiegg. He could see was I shock so guessed she knew what it was, as he didn't even scream, which would have been his reaction had she not barged into his room.

"It's a digiegg, but how did you get one?" she said recovering

"I don't know, it just fell from this white light, near the ceiling."

"It's OK Shinya."

"No, it's not ok, I have to look after this egg, I don't' know how."

"Why do you have to look after it?"

"I don't know, it's just a feeling I have."

"OK. Why are you telling me and not your brother?"

"I feel you know more then he does, and you can help me."

"I'm flattered that you told me, and yes I can help you."

"How?"

"There this is government organisation, which deals with digimon, that's what it will hatch into, they the egg back to where they came from."

"But I don't want to have the digiegg sent back. Isn't there another way?"

"There is, no have to join, and if you do you can't tell anyone."

"Not even Takuya?"

"Especially not Takuya, or the other LW's" she said longing out the especially.

"OK, I'll join I want to keep my digimon." He said smiling, nodded and told him to finish his homework.

She left the room and sat down on the chair she previously sat on.

"You took long" Kouichi said

"Went to get some water." She said without even thinking.

No one said anything as the doorbell rang.

*****Keenan POV*****

He walked up the similar pat Zoe had taken just earlier that day. He rang I doorbell just like she did and waited just like she did, but the greeting was different.

"Hello, may I help you?" the boy asked 'Shit' Keenan thought 'I'm at the legendary warrior's house, didn't Zoe say she was coming here today, maybe she knows'

"Yes, I'm looking for Zoe, is she here?"

"Yeah, come downstairs" with that he followed the brunette into the living room

"Zoe you have a visitor." Takuya said sitting back onto the floor. Zoe looked round and got up fast.

"Keenan what are you doing here? You know don't you?"

"I know, where is it"

"I can't tell you, you'll take it."

"Can we talk about this somewhere else?"

"Come." With that she led him out of the room into the hallway.

"Where is it Zoe, I have to take it back, it doesn't belong here!"

"Why doesn't it belong here? The other stay here why that this one?"

"The other have partners, this one doesn't. If it had a partner we might let it stay here."

"What if I told you it did have a partner?"

"It's got partner?"

"Of course, I wouldn't lie about that"

"Ok, well take it to HQ, and then you can prove it."

"Fine" with that she walked off to one of the bedrooms. While he walked off to the living room

"Thank-you for letting he in, I'll be leaving now."

"Hey no problem."

He left the room which Zoe then came into. "Sorry bout that, I just forgot to give him something, so I've got to go get it."

*****Kouichi POV*****

"OK" Kouichi said still suspicious, but nothing on Zoe face showed she was lying.

Takuya and Zoe walked to the door, and the other watched from the window.

"See you." She said waling towards the car. He door opened for her by a boy with a wristband that had a gold 'S' on it.

'Oh my gosh, that Shinya's' Kouichi thought

The door then closed and the car drove speedily away.

"Hey, where's Shinya?" the older twin asked

"Maybe he's gone to the park," Kouji replied not where the topic was heading.

"By himself?"

"Maybe." He said shrugging his shoulders.

"So a random guy, called Keenan comes asking for Zoe. They then start a weird conversation, and then finish it in the hallway. Keenan comes in says his has to go, then Zoe also says he got to leave. Then the car leaves and Shinya's missing, that can't be a coincidence."

"Maybe he just wanted to leave the house that was the easiest time?"

"Maybe."

*****Limo*****

"Now will you please explain the warrior of fire's brother if coming to DATS?" Keenan asked still not wanting to accept that the 13 year old received a digivice. (Soz if make Keenan sound a bit out of character, I know he nice, but it can't just be 'you have a digivice welcome to DATS')

"For the last time, he's got a digiegg and a digivice, why don't we let Marcus and Thomas pick if he can join" Zoe answered

"Let's say that you do join, wanna see what a digimon looks like?"

"OK, I don't mind." Shinya replied to the older boy. Secretly he wanted to see one badly but didn't want to show it.

"You should, DATS is full of them, they just walk about so….Falcomon Realize"

"Cool" the boy said looking at the black falcon in a purple coat.

"You're not scared?"

"No, course not, that stupid. Can't say I wasn't surprised though."

"That's great, DATS full of them."

"Zoe, we don't know if he's gonna join or not."

"So, he's still going there isn't he?"

"Yeah, Ok, you win."

"Knew I would, Shinya I'm impressed the first time Takuya saw a Digimon he got scared of a team intraining, although he didn't show it."

"Takuya's seen digimon?"

"Yeah, I told you that."

"No, you didn't you said not to tell him that I know about digimon. How does he know about them, coz I doubt he's part of DATS?"

"Why do you think that?" Keenan asked

"Well, I suppose if he was a part of DATS then Keenan wouldn't need to come and Zoe would've told him."

"Clever"

"Thanks"

"Boys, if you're finished were here."

"Ok Zoe, you don't need to make us look bad"

"Yeah, you tell her Keenan!" Shinya said smiling

Keenan smiled back while stepping out of the car. Shinya stepped out to see the DATS HQ. It was a triangle looking building that with lamps on either side of the road they just rode up on. As Shinya walked through the glass doors on the control room he had not seen any digimon, but Zoe said there were loads there.

We walked into the control room to see four people. One was a tall boy could not be older then nineteen, he had brunette hair that he had put into a ponytail. Next to him was a blonde boy, what looked a little younger but still looked the same age as the boy before. They were both sitting by a control panel but turned when the doors opened. Two girls were sitting at a table close by, they looked sixteen. Shinya thought they must be the sisters of the earlier two as one girl had blonde hair, but it was a shade lighter, and had purple eyes instead of blue ones. The other girl had shiny brunette hair and green eyes (don't know what colour they are so I guessed). They also turned around but said nothing.

"So, who are you?" The brunette boy asked.

"Shinya." 'Simple'

"Why is he here?" He asked the two that brought him in

"I'm right here you know, you can ask me."

"Ok, why are you here?"

"Zoe said I should come in." 'No way am I telling him more then he asked'

"And why would Zoe bring you in?" he said leaning back in his chair, only to suddenly fall off.

"ZOE!!!"

"Sorry, to good to let go."

"Shinya carry on."

"Because I have a digiegg and vice." He said seriously, trying hard not to laugh. The other people in the room just stared at him.

"Well, I think you should join, who agrees?" The blonde spoke. 'Maybe he was thinking about what was happening while everyone was laughing.'

"You can't be serious Thomas? It's too dangerous." The boy retaliated to blonde who was now called Thomas.

"I am serious Marcus, if Shinya's got a digiegg; it's probably for a good reason."

"I remember a time when people had digiegg but they were still sent back."

"They never had digivice, Again who agrees?" That shut Marcus up.

"I do"

"I'm with Zoe" Keenan said from his seat next to the brunette girl. 'When did he get there?'

"Me too" the blonde girl said

"That's four. Kristy?" Thomas counted

"I think he should join, I'm sorry Marcus but he's too young, me and Keenan started at 10 and Relz started at 12. Shinya's older he's us. He's 13."

"How do you know that?"

"Simple I read your file, well not your file your brother's"

"What file, does it say how he knows about digimon?"

"Yeah it does, he's part of the Legendary Warriors, and they turn into digimon, instead of having partners" the blonde said. Shinya thought she's the only persons who name he didn't know.

"The LW are real, I just thought they were a name, and they become digimon, how do you know all this anyway?"

"Yes there real and we know coz Zoe told us."

"Zoe told you?" she looked at the girl in question and she seemed to be looking anywhere expect at him.

"How do you know Zoe?"

"Know what?"

"Don't act innocent."

"Fine" she turned to look at him "But what I tell you now you, I did not tell you?"

"OK"

"The legendary warriors turn into digimon, as we have the spirits that helped set up the digital world, they weren't needed before but five years ago we were called for to save that world. At first it was just me, Takuya, JP, Tommy and Kouji, we got all are spirits, human and beast. Then we met Kouichi, and Kouji found his twin. He defeated Cherubimon, Lucemon, and Royal Knights, the other four spirits and…" She mumbled something that Shinya couldn't hear. From the corner of his eye he saw Keenan leave the room.

"Zoe what did you say?"

"I said and Duskmon." But even that he barely made out. He thought she said it quietly for a reason so didn't plan on pushing her.

"So what spirits do you have?"

"I have wind, Takuya has fire, Tommy has ice, JP has lightening, Kouji has light and Kouichi has darkness. The other ones were Water, Earth, Wood and Steel."

"This is great, now I can tell Takuya I know all about him!"

"No you can't"

"Relena's right, Takuya knows all about digimon, if he finds out you have one he'll go mental, no one can know about us." Zoe explained

"Ok, I better go, I won't tell anyone" he promised.

"Wait!!" All eyes turned to Kristy "We still don't know if he's a part of DATS yet?"

"Oh, I think he is," Marcus confirmed.

"Thx"

"You'll need this, no good being part of DATS if you don't know the basic" Shinya took the file named 'Basics' from Keenan, and left the building. He sat in the limo with his egg in his lap.

'This is great!!!' He thought to himself

*****Back Home*****

"And where did you go?" Mrs Kanbara asked he second he got out of his bedroom door 'Lucky I put the egg into my room.'

"Just to the park, I finished my homework and I didn't want to see Takuya making eyes at Zoe." He saw his brother leave the living room when he heard his name, only to start blushing. Shinya smirked but it went unnoticed.

"Zoe's back! Why didn't you tell me, how is she now?"

"She great, I just found out she got back, she came after school but only stayed for a little while." Takuya answered after he stopped.

"Well, Ok, Shinya you really should tell someone when you were leaving, come on dinners ready." With that she walked into the kitchen leaving only the two brothers.

"Were you worried big bro?"

"No, course not, just wondering were you were that's all."

"If you say so."

"Please stop saying that I hate it. I shouldn't have said that."

"If you say so, If you say so, If you say so, If you say so, If you say so."

"SHINYA STOP." Takuya screamed.

'He really is like fire. Interesting'.

***** Shinya's bedroom~12:00pm*****

That night while Shinya was sleeping his digiegg started to shake and a crack appeared in its shell.

*****Preview ~ Next Chapter~ The Morning After*****

Tommy put his had up. "Ms may I use the bathroom?"

"Yes Tommy, you may go."

Tommy walked into the bathroom, he didn't need to go, nut he didn't want to her the teacher going on about Van Gogh.

"Calm down Petitmon, I'm happy to see you to, but you need to do it." A boy's voice said. Tommy thought he had heard it before but he couldn't remember

'What, what is Petitmon doing? .What did his boy want him to do?'

"Petitmon Capture, do boy, let's go."

Tommy heard the click of the door lock and ran out of the room. He stopped by the door to his class and calmed himself down.

"Hey, Tommy." Tommy turned to see the Shinya, he said hi back, and Shinya walked off.

Tommy grabbed the door handle and sat into his seat. The class was still going on when it hit him.

'Hold on, he boy said Petitmon, as in a digimon? What are Digimon doing here?'

Hope you liked it!!!

Please Review:

The preview might not be the way I actually write it but Tommy will hear someone in the bathroom, Shinya will say hi to him and he will realise that there are digimon.
