Ruki
and Renamon walked, and walked, and walked. Only Renamon knew where
they were walking and as she would put it, "Toward death!"
It was a bit harsh, yes, but it was also true. They were only hoping
he would help. If not, they were in trouble.
"Renamon," Ruki said.
"If you tired I'll carry you," Renamon relied.
"No, I feel dizzy," Ruki
wobbled and fell sideways. Renamon leaped and caught her. Pulling her
up, Renamon walked on. They were almost to there destinated. The
Eastern Forest. They would stop in a town in front of the forest to
rest. The town was Golden Tree Village.
"Do you have a place
to stay?" Renamon asked the first digimon to pass by. It was
Agumon.
"Yes I do. Actually, you can stay in my Inn. It's Golden Inn," The Agumon offered.
"Thank you!" Renamon replied and followed the digimon to the Inn.
"Here we are. We have plenty of rooms! Will you be sharing a room or would you like to differant rooms?" Agumon asked.
"One, with two beds if you have it!" Renamon answered.
"Very well, room number 23 on the second floor. Here is your key and enjoy your stay!" Agumon smiled.
"Thank you, we will!" Renamon replied and walked away. She walked up the stairs and found room 23. Renamon opened the door and walked in. It was a pale blue color with a bed on ether side of the room. In the middle was a desk and at the end of each bed was a dresser. Renamon put Ruki on the closest bed. Renamon sat on the other bed and looked out the window. Digimon were running around and playing. Renamon sighed. She remembered when she was just a Reremon. Playing with the other little digimon. And she remembered her best friend, Tsunomon. He was the second in there class to digivole. Renamon was the first. Tsunomon digivoled to Gabumon, Renamon remember distintly. Would she ever see her friend again, be normal for once? Working with a human made her weird and a herion! Digimon everywhere knew who she was, she had helped save the human and digital world from the DReaper. Renamon just wanted things to be normal again. But, then again, their was Ruki. Did Renamon really want it all to go away? Renamon watched as one digimon fought another, just playfully. Renamon felt a tear come to her eye. They didn't know what they were doing! But Renamon knew, they were battling for no reason and Renamon hated it! Renamon used to do that, but she won't anymore. Not unless someone was in trouble.
"Renamon, are you ok?" Ruki asked, startling Renamon.
"Fine," Renamon said when she collected herself.
"Your crying," Ruki said. Renamon couldn't deny that fact.
"It's them," Renamon looked toward the window. Ruki got up and looked out. Little digimon were attacking each other.
"Are they playing?" Ruki asked. Renamon nodded.
"But that's not it. They don't realize that one day, doing that, it will distroy the life of another. Who knows who that will affect," Renamon couldn't help but have more tears fall.
"Renamon, it's okay. I-I don't know what to say," Ruki said. How could she comfort Renamon?
"It's alright Ruki, I'll be fine. Now, you get more sleep! that's an order," Renamon said.
"Alrighty then!" Ruki walked over to the bed and was out in an intent. Renamon smiled and got up. She was going to go for walk.
Renamon walked through Golden Tree
Village. It was very obivious to tell where they got it's name. In
the center of town was a golden tree. Renamon walked, trying to
escape the fighting. But everywhere she turned someone was fighting
about something. Little kids playing, parents arguing, and more. But
what disturbed Renamon the most was that she came across a real
battle. To digimon fighting, for a reason Renamon didn't know yet.
Renamon looked at the watchers. 'How can they just watch this? Is
this entertanment to them?'
"What are they fighting for?"
Renamon asked, hoping someone would here.
"Well, they are fighting about who is wrong and who is right. The Goblimon says that the human girl is the Dark Child and will get us our way to the human world to rule and Agumon says she's just staying at the Inn and then finding a way home. Who ever wins is right," A close digimon explained. And Agumon looked pretty beat up!
"Is that how you solve everything? Fighting for it?" Renamon asked.
"Yes, we have lost many but do not morn for long! There is work to do!" He replied. Renamon narrowed her eyes. "And the winner gets the others things. If Goblimon wins, he get Golden Tree Inn and if Agumon wins, he get Goblimon's Grub, a very nice market!"
"NO!" Renamon cried. "It's not right. Both of you stop it now!" Renamon walked forward. Goblimon and Agumon stopped and stared at her like she was crazy!
"Do not interfer! This is none of you business!" Goblimon said.
"I'm making it my business," Renamon said sternly. "Do any of you know what it's like? Why do you fight? Settle it a differant way!"
"Move, you are going to be brought into it!" Goblimon warned.
"Then bring it," Renamon narrowed her eyes. "Fighting will not tell you who is wrong and who is right, it will one prove who is the strongest."
"Oh, Puh-lease! Don't give me that stuff. I'm fighting for the right and the Inn. I want riches!" Goblimon laughed.
"Richs, huh? Well what about diamonds?" Renamon asked.
"Diamonds would be nice," Goblimon pondered.
"Then have some!" Renamon jumpped in the air. "Diamond Storm!"
Goblimon wasn't expecting this and stumbled backwards. The diamonds hit infront of him.
"Are you crazy! That could have got me!" Goblimon rambled.
"Exactly! You wanted a fight and you got one! Now, leave or I'll have to hurt you!" Renamon stood tall. Goblimon stood quickly and ran.
"Renamon?" A voice asked. Renamon turned and faced Takato and the rest of the Tamers.
"How did you get here?" Renamon jumped.
"We followed your trail! Ruki told me you were leaving and we guess to the Digital World and we were right! Now, where is she?" Takato asked.
"Right here," Ruki walked forward. "I know I'm suppose to be asleep but I woke up and couldn't get back to sleep. I heard a fight and came here, where you where arguing with a Goblimon. Then you fought him, so I was ready to help. Do you remember when we fought..."
"Yes Ruki, I remember," Renamon nodded. Ruki was talking about the first time they'd fought a Goblimon, in the human world and he digivoled. "I remember it very clearly."
"Ruki, you're coming home," Juri said. "It's to dangerous here, even for you!"
"I'm not leaving!" Ruki said.
"Wanna bet?" Ryo asked.
"Why yes, I would love a bet!" Ruki replied walking right up to Ryo.
"Okay!" Ryo walked away from the group and Ruki followed. Their bet was apparently going to be privet!
"If I win, you have to leave me alone and I get to stay!" Ruki said.
"I don't think you want to take my bet!" Ryo said lazily.
"What is it?" Ruki challanged.
"If I win, you have to go home," Ruki rolled her eyes at that. "And dump Takato!"
"Nani? Your joking right?" Ruki almost fainted.
"No joke. So you can fight and win, fight and lose, or not fight and be dragged back but still have Takato. So it's 2 out of 3 chance you get Takato still. We fight digimon," Ryo said.
"I guess I have to take the bet, if I want to stay..." Ruki was on the verge of tears.
"Cool!" Ryo held put his hand and Ruki shook it. Ryo walked away and Renamon appeared.
"Something's wrong, I can sense it," Renamon said quietly.
"Will you fight Cyberdramon for me?" Ruki asked. Renamon looked offended. "It's for my future with..."
"NO! I'm not going to fight Cyberdramon so you can go talk to a digimon who probable won't even help to begin with!" Renamon looked infuriated. "We had this dicustion already!"
"But Renamon! Not that..." Ruki started.
"No, you should have that of that sooner," Renamon phased away. Ruki turned and ran into the forest as Ryo went to talk to Takato.
Ruki ran and ran. Finnaly, she came to a gaint tree, where she collasped under it. She hugged her knees and cried.
"Why are you crying, my Daughter?" A voice asked.
"Mother?" Ruki asked, with no clue what she was talking about. "Mother, where are you?"
"I'm right here," A pink knight looking digimon came forward. "Daughter, what happened?"
"Why do I call you Mother?" Ruki asked. "Who are you?"
"I am Crusadermon, the last Royal Knight alive. I am one of the three rulers of the digital world. I am higher then the Harmonious Ones even! I am the second strongest. Minervamon is the strongest and she is the last remaining Olympian God! And below us is Lucemon," Crusadermon explained. "Lucemon is one of the two remaining Deman Lords. The other is Beezlemon, but no one knows were he went."
"I know Beezlemon! He evoles from Impmon! He's my friend!" Ruki exclaimed.
"If you see him before I, tell him he is needed to his duty!" Crusadermon said.
"I don't think he would come back. He has a new duty," Ruki whispered.
"What would that be?" Crusadermon asked, offended. "What is more important then taking his rightful place me I ask?"
"Friends! Protecting his friends is more important then taking his rightful place. He has Tamers now! Ai and Makato! He protects them, he almost died in the DReaper for them! He is my friend and the Tamers friends. That is more important then taking your place! We shouldn't have places!" Ruki was furious. "Friendship is the greatest thing to have! No amount of ranking could take that away!"
"Then why do you rank yourself better then everyone else? Why do you not take friendship seariously?" Crusadermon asked calmly.
"I, I, umm, I-I, well, you see, umm, I d-don't know..." Ruki admited. "Why do I?"
"That is a good question and only you can answer it. But remember what you said, friendship is the greatest this to have. Because someone will hurt you and you must understand what they are going through!"
"Yes, I understand. Do you mean, Ryo's bet?" Ruki asked.
"Yes, I know about that. Please take this. It will help you. Call me when I am needed. I will come when you need help, but to show it someone must want to help you or must call for it. I'm what you could call a second digimon," Crusadermon nodded to Ruki and disappeared.
"But I have more questions!" Ruki called to the empty woods.
"Ruki? What are you yelling for?" Renamon asked as she phased in.
"Renamon, you don't have to fight..."
"But I do! And you must go talk to Takato! I overheard Ryo mention to Cyberdramon the bet and who knows what Ryo said to Takato!" Renamon didn't wait for an answer, she picked up Ruki and they phased back to town.
---Town---
"Takato! Takato! I've got to talk to you!" Ruki yelled running up to him.
"Yea, I think we had better talk," Takato replied. "I heard about the bet."
"What did Ryo tell you?" Ruki asked right off.
"That you bet our relationship! I can't believe mphh," Takato was cut off as Ruki kissed him.
"I didn't bet that, Ryo did. My side of the bet was I go on and he leave me alone. His side was I dump you and we go home. I wouldn't have excepted if I didn't have to find out my future. I love you Takato! I know I'm only 16 and shouldn't really fall in love until 21 but I know and feel with all my heart that I love you" Ruki said softly in Takato's ear.
"Ruki, I shouldn't have believed Ryo in the first place. And I love you as well. I would do anything for you," Takato replied.
"Even die?" A new voice asked and an evil laugh was heard.
