Beep! Beep!

Tk woke up to his buzzing phone. He yawned and sat up on the edge of the bed. It was only then that he realised. For the first time since he had gotten home he didn't have a headache. Tk smiled to himself and leaned over and picked up his phone. The text was from Kari, it read:

"Hey, plan for today. Yolei and I will keep tabs on Miko, while Davis and Ken watch over Kayla. As for Tk and Cody you guys look out for Mikey. The older kids have their own plans so text them if you need them. Good luck everyone! We'll meet back at Izzy's house as 7pm! =) xx"

Just as Tk had finished reading the text he got a message on his D-Terminal from Cody. "Is it okay if Armadilomon and I call over at about 10:30am?" Tk looked at his clock. It was only 9:45am. He quickly messaged "okay" back to Cody before heading for a shower.

After cleaning himself up and putting on warm clothes Tk woke up Patamon and the two ate a quick breakfast while they waited for Cody. Although Tk wasn't feeling sick anymore he still wasn't happy. He was a bit annoyed he wasn't spending the day with Kari and the thoughts of having to put up with a whole day of Cody made his blood boil. Tk gasped and shook his head.

Patamon looked up from his cereal. "You okay?"

Tk nodded slowly. "Yeah I'm fine" he lied. Truth was Tk's own anger surprised him. He never felt so mad about having to spend a few hours with Cody and not with Kari. "Hmmmm weird," he thought.

Before Tk could think this through further there was a knock on the door. "That'll be Cody," said Tk picking up his D-Terminal, D3 and a jacket. "C'mon Pata."

Tk opened the door to a smiling Cody and Armadilomon. The anger flared up in Tk again and he could just about bring himself to smile back. "Hey Tk," said Cody, "how are you today?"

Tk put on a false smile. "I'm fine," he said. Trying to avoid the small talk Tk closed the front door and began to walk briskly towards the apartment block's stair well.

Cody and Armadilomon gave each other a confused look. "What's eating him? Asked Armadilomon. Cody simply shrugged. "Who knows?" he said before chasing after Tk.

There was an awkward silence between Tk and Cody as the walked down the stairs. Tk looked back up at Cody who was chasing after him. "Why am I so mad at him?" he thought. Tk tried to think back, he couldn't remember Cody annoying him or anything in ages, yet he felt like punching the kid repeatedly. Tk couldn't understand it. So in typical Tk fashion he ignored his feelings and attempted to talk to Cody.

"So where does the Black Spore kid live?" he asked Cody.

"Oh, the Oak Lane apartment block three streets over," answered Cody.

Tk nodded. "Okay then, come on Patamon."

Armadilomon jumped from Cody's arms and ran forward. "Yeah guys!" he said enthusiastically, "lets go!"

The digidestined and their digimon headed towards the Oak Lane apartment block. It was a short walk and they were there in no time. On arrival they awkwardly stood outside the building and simply stared at it. "Eh, so what do we do now?" asked Tk.

"We wait," said Cody matter-of-factly.

"Wait," said Tk. "Are you telling me that we are to stand outside this building in the cold all day just for the slight possibility that Mikey might decide to go for a walk?"

"Eh," said Armadilomon and Cody nervously.

"Are you kidding me?" asked Tk crossly. "That's absolutely ridicu-

"Shhhhhhh!" commanded Cody elbowing Tk in the ribs, "that's him," he said pointing up at a small dark haired boy who had just appeared from one of the apartments.

Tk, Cody and the digimon quickly but subtly ran behind a wall and waited for Mikey to get down the stairs and out of the apartment block. The boys waited until Mikey was quite a bit of the way ahead of them down the pavement before they began to follow him.

Tk and Cody remained quiet while following Mikey. Cody looked up at Tk. He was worried. Tk was walking with his hands in his pockets and Cody could see the anger and frustration in Tk's usually bright and optimistic eyes. Cody looked away and remembered back to when Tk had nearly lost it when Blackwargreymon was destroying one of the destiny stones. He didn't like Tk when he was angry as the gentle boy could become quite vicious. Cody just hoped nothing would happen that would provoke Tk's anger further.

Two hours had past since the digidestined had started following the child with the Dark Spore and nothing significant seemed to have happened. Cody, Tk and their digimon partners were beginning to get bored. "What exactly are we supposed to be watching out for?" asked Patamon.

"I'm not too sure," answered Tk honestly. "Something out of normal behaviour I guess but like we don't know what this kid is like normally so I dunno."

Tk stopped and watched Mikey who was now slowly walking through the park. The boy looked deep in thought and kept his head down. Tk sighed and looked around the park. He saw as a playful looking black Labrador ran over towards Mikey. The dog stood in front of the boy and cheerfully wagged his tail. Mikey looked up at the dog and suddenly kicked it hard in the chest.

"Woah!" yelled Tk "now that is certainly out of character behaviour, I don't know this kid but nobody goes and kicks a dog for no reason!" Cody, Tk and the digimon ran towards Mikey. The reached the child just as the poor dog sulked off with its tail between its legs.

Mikey went to continue walking but Tk grabbed him by the shoulder and forced him to turn around. "Hey, kid you can't just go kicking animals for no reason!" he shouted.

Mikey scrunched his face up in anger. "Who are you to tell me what I can and can't do?" he yelled.

Tk grabbed Mikey by the collar of his shirt and lifted him up from the ground slightly. "I'm Takeru Takaishi," said Tk viciously, "and if you dare speak to me like that again I'll treat you with as about as much respect as you just treated that dog."


Bam! :) Hope you liked it! until the next chapter! ttfn x
