Blast From The Past To Adventure

Ikkakumon's Harpoon Torpedo

APOV

"I know this is no day at the beach, Joe, but that's no reason to be a worrywart about it and make all your friends unhappy. Pardon the pun, but chill out. Only you have a problem with the cold. Right, guys? Everyone, think warm." I giggle a little when Gomamon tell Joe all that.

"I'm allergic to fur." Joe said while I'm hearing everyone shivering, seeing Mimi and TK are the ones who are really cold. So am I since my sweater isn't helping.

"Aw, come on, you guys, the weather isn't that terrible." TK and Mimi gasped while I glare at my neighbor for saying that.

"Either your brain is frozen or you're just being an idiot." I told him, seeing him with a grin on his face and wink at us.

"Yeah, think about it, Akane, if it snows, we'll throw some snowballs." I laughed at that.

"And make snowmen." Mimi said with a smile.

"What do you think a Snowmon is?" I heard Gomamon asked.

"A Digimon from their planet." I heard Gabumon, making me giggle while Izzy explained to them what it is, even though Tentomon thought it sounded delicious.

"We could even build a snow fort." I heard Matt.

"You'll need one." Tai challenge him.

"I bet I could beat you both blindfolded." Sora said.

"I'll help, Sora." I pump my fist into my right hand, chuckling evilly since the boys knew I'm gonna get my revenge one day for what they did back at camp. Not until I notice that Joe is by his lonesome, watching everyone chatting about the snow, which it made me feel bad, so I thought an idea.

I went ahead take off my sweater, then made my way over to him and place my sweater on his shoulders, seeing him jumped when he look over and I put on a smile on my face.

"You can wear it, Joe." I told him.

"No, Akane, you need it." He said, but I shook my head.

"It's fine, I'll be okay, you need it more than I do." He was about to fight back again, but I push my sweater back to him. "I'm serious, Joe, I'm fine. Wear it."

We hear the boys chatting about the snow falling from the sky, then I heard Matt about snow landing on Joe's head and TK said it'll be funny. Which, that made me giggle a bit since I knew they were joking.

"If the temperature drops any lower than it is," I look back up at Joe, seeing him wearing my sweater. "we won't be able to camp out anymore. We'll be frozen digi-treats." Not until we heard the boys began to laugh since they ignore him. "That's right, go ahead and laugh, but when your tootsies freeze, don't go crying to me, I'll say I told you so and-huh, hey!"

"Yeah, yeah, we get it, Joe." I pull him away from the team when we took the lead. "Better safe than sorry, we get it. They're just looking the positive side, that's all." I told him since I wrap my arm around his, but he continue to pout and mad that no one listen to him.

"Hey, what's that white stuff?" We heard Gomamon when we gasped at the sight.

"It's a field of snow." Mimi said. "There's bound to be a ski resort nearby."

"Oh, man, this is much worse than even I though it was." Joe said when I saw Mimi and TK began to play, so did Patamon and Palmon, not until I felt something wet on my butt.

"Yipes!" I jumped so high, I look over and saw it was Gaomon who threw a snowball. He laughed and ran away from me while I start chasing him. "Come back here, you overgrown dog!" I laughed and the two of us joined in with Mimi and TK, having a great time, not until I didn't see where I'm going when Gaomon decided to come into a stop.

"Whoa, oof!" I fell over him and landed on my back. "Ow, what gives, Gaomon?"

"You smell that?" He sniffed in the air. "Smell something very warm." I stood up and did the same.

"It smell very familiar." I said when Mimi and TK came in, then all of the sudden...

"A big geyser!" We heard Joe as we look over at him and the team, seeing them running as we join with them after Mimi said that she wanted to take a warm bath.

Once we got there, there were geysers, all right, but they were bubbling and too thick that can burn us alive. I was already sweating with the heat in the air.

"We'd be cooked if we went in this." Tentomon said.

"Yeah, boiled." Izzy agreed.

"Well, there goes my big dream of a nice warm bath." Mimi was disappointed.

"It look so inviting." I rolled my eyes at that.

"If you wanna be a vegetable, Palmon." I joked as I walk away, not realizing I bump into Tai. "Oof!"

"Whoops, careful now." I met his gaze that match the grin on his face. "You okay?"

"Yeah, sorry, neighbor." I told him as I grin back. Not until we heard Joe about dirt, then TK said there is something out there when we look down at him. "What are you talking about, TK?" I asked him curiously when he points at the right.

"Look-it!" The three of us look and I gasped in surprise.

"Tell me I'm not imagining this." Joe said in disbelief while Tai leans over him.

"Yeah! It's for real!"

"Aw, come on, that's ridiculous," Joe said. "What would a refrigerator be doing way out here?" He bought up a good question. I look down at Gaomon and he thought the same thing.

"Hey, where there's a fridge, there's grub." Matt said.

"No way, that's impossible." All of us walked over to the green fridge.

"We won't know till we open it." Sora said.

"I don't really think-"

"I want hot cocoa!" I place my hand on the handle with Gaomon by my side, the two of us standing our guard for anything suspicious might come out.

"Come on, Akane," I heard Tai. "Open it already." I notice he stood close to me as I push him away.

"Girl needs her space here!" Geez. I went ahead open the door and I gasped. "Holy chicken, there's eggs inside!"

"Lots of them, too." Gaomon said when Tai and Agumon came in.

"Yeah, grub on, these will keep us all fat for a month." Tai said.

"Wait a minute!" Joe jumps in. "You shouldn't even touch them, we don't know if they're fit to human consumption."

"Then, I'll be guinea pig," My neighbor joked. "if I turn purple, you'll know they're not edible."

"If you start puking, be sure you turn your face over that way." I joked as I turn my neighbor's head to the right. But, I got serious. "Joe's right, though, even they're edible, they don't belong to us."

"Thank you, Akane." Joe felt relief. "See, Tai, you've gotta think about stuff like that."

"Unless you're into eating rocks, we don't have much choice." Matt bought up a good point. Even my stomach agreed with him since it growled.

"I'm sure they say yes if they knew we're in trouble." Sora said.

"Exactly," Izzy cuts in. "we'd tell 'em it's an emergency situation." With that being said, everyone went to work. I look up at Joe, but he look away with a sadden look on his face. I went ahead place my hand on his shoulder.

"You're not alone, Joe." I tell him when he look over at me. "I got your back, buddy." I wink at him, seeing him smile a little, which it made me smile, too. "Come on, let's get settle for dinner, yeah?" And we did.

-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-

Everyone are doing their thing for dinner, Sora and Mimi are cracking eggs on a thin rock that could be use like a big frying pan with Biyomon flapping her wings to turn up the fire.

"Sunny side up are my specialty." I heard her say while I'm helping Joe making chopsticks for us to use while Gaomon is with TK and Patamon, doing boiled eggs in the hot spring.

"They're done." I heard Patamon as I look up and saw TK and the two Digimon were carrying two baskets of boiled eggs.

"Good work, you guys." I complimented them as I continue carving my chopsticks. I did three of them so far as I look over at Joe, seeing him leaning against a boulder and slowly carving the first stick he hasn't complete yet.

"Come on, you guys, how are the chopsticks coming?" I heard Tai.

"Hurry, we wanna eat." I heard Mimi since my eyes are still on my reliable friend. Seeing him look sad and upset.

"We'd be big trouble if someone get sick," He said to himself. "no doctors, you know? Why do I always have to be the one who thinks about these things?" I frown at that. "Not only me, but Akane, too?" I still frown at that.

Few minutes later, everyone have gather and we used a big slant rock as a table top and the rest for the legs. I feel like we're eating in a dining room.

"Tres gourmet." Mimi comment.

"It's your turn next time." Sora said.

"Go on, dig in." Biyomon told the girls while we did.

"Yeah, I hadn't have a meal like this in a long time," I hear Tai since he's sitting next to me. "My stomach's chiming."

"If we had some ketchup to go with this, it would be perfect." Matt said, making me almost giggle as I took a bite of my eggs. I even heard TK said he loved it, which it made me giggle a bit.

"That sounds pretty gross to me." Sora comment.

"What's the matter, Joe?" I heard Gomamon when I look over and saw Joe look sadden again. "You haven't eaten anything."

"Oh, I was just thinking if we were able to go home, ketchup wouldn't be a problem." He said, making the air depressed. "Oh, well." He sighed while everyone took in what he had said.

"Oh, now I'm homesick." Mimi said as she lowered her head. "How depressing."

"You're right, now I wanna go home." I heard TK, making my heart sulk of how sad he sounded, which it made me sad when I thought about my baby cousin.

"It's been four days since we've been here," I hear Izzy. "I wonder if anyone tried to find out where we are." I shook my head and went to go join with Sora.

"Hey, Sora, I can take it from here." I tell her. "You go ahead and finish eating." The two of us smile at each other and I go ahead try to flip the egg she was cooking.

"I prefer my eggs to be cover with salt and pepper," Joe started. "But, it doesn't matter." I roll my eyes at that.

"I like soy sauce." Tai said.

"How 'bout salsa?" Matt said.

"How 'bout reality check?" Sora joked, made me giggle at her expression.

"I'll have mine with mustard and jellybeans, please." That was from Izzy when me and the boys look at him with weird, yet nervous look on our faces.

"Jellybeans sounds good." TK said.

"How gross." I threw a small stick at Matt's head. "Ow, what? I was joking."

"You're both weird," Mimi said. "My favorite is egg topped with maple syrup, yummy! Sometimes, I like them with cherry on top. She said with a bright smile.

"That's weird."

"Actually, it was really good." Everyone look at me with wide eyed expression and Mimi giggled. "I even tried with ceviche that my mom left over from our family's gathering one time." I can feel my mouth is watering when I think about my mom's cooking.

"You're completely making me lose my appetite," That was from Joe when we all look up at him. "I just like plain eggs! I wish we could talk about something other than egg recipes." He place his hands on his head, letting out a frustrated sigh.

"Don't be so hard on yourself," Gomamon tell him. "they're just trying to have fun."

"C'mon, enjoy the party." Matt said.

"I think it's too late for him," Tai started as he joked. "I think Joe thinks we've all gone a little crazy over these eggs."

"Well, really," Joe glare up at us. "Jellybeans and cherries on eggs, that's just crazy talk!" He huffed. "Salt and pepper's all they need, that's my motto."

"He completely lost his mind." Gaomon sighed while I bonk him on his head. "Ow." He scowled at me when the two of us heard him and Gomamon bickering.

"Just what do you mean?"

"Face it, Joe, you're kind of stick in the mud, if you get my drift."

"I'm just being practical!" Joe retorted.

"You're stuffy." The seal joked.

"Someone has to have a head on their shoulders!"

"You wanna fight?" Matt and I quickly jumped in before it gets ugly. I grab the seal and held him in my arms.

"Hey, hey, hey," Matt stated. "You gotta calm down." He said while he's holding Joe's arm.

"I AM CALM!" The three of us flinched. "And why you squeezed my arm?" Joe broke Matt's hold as I stood in front of him after I put Gomamon on Gaomon's head.

"Just relax, Joe," I tell him. "We're just goofing around, you don't have to be hectic about littlest things." All of the sudden, he tossed my sweater over at me and began to storm away from us. "Joe."

"Let him go, Akane." I look over at Matt since he has his hand on my shoulder. I look back at the direction where my friend went.

-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-

"Why are you making such a big deal about out of this?"

"Because, it's too dangerous." About ten minutes later, you're not gonna believe who's fighting.

"There's no place to go," Tai argued. "we have no choice!"

"Before we do something foolish," Matt argued back. "we should think it over a little more!"

"You're just a big ol' chicken!"

"Am not!"

"Are too!"

"Am not!"

"Are too!" I sighed heavily when Joe came in.

"Hey, everybody, what's with all the ruckus?" He asked when he stood by me. "Why're Matt and Tai fighting?"

"They're debating about whether or not we go up to Infinity Mountain," Izzy said as he pointed at the mountain in front of us. "Which is way up over there."

"That's practically up in the sky." Joe said, still sighing and I fold my arms.

"Infinity Mountain's a doozy." Tentomon said.

"It's a perfect spot," Tai shouted. "we gotta climb up there, it's the best view of the island!"

"You got to admit, he has a point there."

"That's not how Matt see it." Sora interjects.

"Nobody would make it up that peak," Matt shouts back. "it's too much of a gamble!"

"He might be right, Joe," Gaomon look up at him. "There could be a lot of evil Digimon we've might encounter."

"Hm, that's not good, then it wouldn't be worth a risk." The older boy agrees.

"C'mon, Matt," We heard Tai. "don't be a wimp. We won't get anywhere if we just stand around, talking." I saw the glare look on the blond's face.

"Put your fists down when you talk to me," He scolded. "And stop acting like you can bully your way into being the leader." He turns away and folded his arms.

"Stop, you guys," Joe jumped in. "Chill out."

"Um, Joe, I don't think-" I got cut off by Matt's voice.

"So, what's your opinion about this, Joe?" Here we go.

"Huh?"

"Yeah, Joe," Tai cuts in. "tell us who's right, me or Matt?" I facepalmed, I've felt bad for Joe, he walked right into that one.

"Um, well, I think Tai's right about going up the peak," Joe said. "if we went up there, we would be able to see the landscape of the island a lot better."

"See, Matt?" I rolled my eyes at Tai's smirk.

"Now, hold on, Matt bought up a real good point about the danger," He said. "It's kinda dumb to lead everybody up to a place we don't know about." And that's when they start arguing when Joe went into his thinking mode.

I sighed as I made my way over, then stood right next to Joe with both of my fists up in the air and then...

POW! POW! POW!

"OW!"

"What the-" The three idiots look up at me and I'm getting mad.

"Shut up and listen to me!" I snapped. "You two bought up good points, but don't bring Joe into it, just because you both can't agree on anything, doesn't mean you have to argue like you're bunch of morons who are standing around and do nothing about it!" The three boys backed away from me from my shouting.

"So, if I were you two," I'm not saying it towards Joe since he has nothing to do with Tai and Matt's stupidity. "Start acting mature and do us a favor, march over to the cave and sleep it off, if not, I'll drag you two out and have Gaogamon use his attack and blast you two into space!"

With that being said, Sora and TK manage to push the two idiots into the cave with Izzy and the rest following them while I stay outside and look up at Joe. He look a little bit scared from my tantrum.

"Sorry," I exhale and put a grin on my face. "I just hate idiots, that's all." I giggle a bit and saw a small smile on his face.

"Thanks, Akane." He said, making me smile some more as I went ahead took off my sweater and gave it to him.

"You can use it, I have Gaomon with me, so I'll be okay." I wink at my older friend, seeing him take my sweater and the two of us walk over to the cave to join with the others.

About ten minutes later while everyone and I slept, I've felt a familiar warmth over me as I pull my sweater over to my shoulder. Wait, my sweater? I sat up and I notice Gaomon is by the entrance of the cave.

"Gao?"

"Akane, come on," He tell me as he pulls me up. "Joe and Gomamon are heading to Infinity Mountain." I gasped and the two of us ran out of the cave to find them.

"That idiot," I said as the two of us follow the obstacles to the mountain. "Can't he tell that this place is dangerous to go on by themselves?"

"It'll be okay, Akane." I hear Gaomon huffed when the two of us climbed over the hill. "Oof, Joe and Gomamon would be all right, I'm pretty sure Joe has a good reason why he wants to climb on the mountain." I thought about it and my canine friend is right.

"I guess you're right, Gao-" I got cut off when the mountain began to shake when the two of us saw couple of black gears came out from a wall. I almost lost my balance, if weren't Gaomon saving me. "Thanks."

The shaking stopped when the two of us heard a weird sound when the sun came out, then all of the sudden, we heard Joe and Gomamon screaming. They're being attacked by a flying horse.

"That's Unimon," Gaomon called out. "There's a black gear on his back!"

"Gao, you gotta digivolve!" And he did.

"Gaomon, digivolve to...Gaogamon!" I mounted on Gaogamon and the two of us went to go join with Birdramon and Greymon, who came in in time to save our friends.

"Hey, leave some for us!" I shouted when Greymon blasted his Nova Blast attack at the horse.

"Akane!" I jumped off Gaogamon while he joins in with Greymon.

"Dash Double Claw!" Then, again, the stupid horse also attacked my canine. "Ahh!"

"Gaogamon!" He fell off the cliff where Birdramon fell. I was about to go to him, but Tai protected me from getting hit since Greymon protected us both. Then, I heard Unimon is about to go after Birdramon, which he attack her and Sora, then I heard Joe is gonna try to take out the black gear off the horse's back.

"Joe, don't!" Too late, he jumped and landed on the flying horse. "Joe!" I ran over to Gomamon as the two of us watched. "Are you insane?!"

"Insane, yes!" He called out.

"Joe, stop!" Gomamon cried out. "Don't try to be a hero!"

"I know, but I have to do this one thing!" Joe shouted. "I'm not gonna stop until it's done." The two of us watch Unimon trying to get our friend off of him. "I have to think positive, I'm responsible, I've got to do it!" Unimon manage to get Joe off of his back. "Ahhh!"

"No!" I shouted.

"Joe!" That's when Gomamon starts to digivolve. "Gomamon, digivolve to...Ikkakumon!" I gasped that Gomamon became a giant seal with a horn on his head.

He manage to save Joe and fought Unimon by using his Harpoon Torpedo attack. It didn't do anything, at first. The horn change into those little missiles and fired directly at Unimon, not only that, the black gear manage to come off and Gaogamon jumped in and tackle the gear down to the ground until it disappeared.

"Whoo-hoo! Way a go!" I cheered, not realizing that I fell off the cliff. "Ah! Oof!" I landed beside Joe on Ikkakumon's back. "Thanks, Ikkakumon, you were awesome."

"Aw, shucks, thanks, Akane." He said, making the two of us to laugh and I gave Joe a bear hug. I notice he was blushing, but he too, return the hug.

-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-

"Wow, you were jammin' out there, Joe," Tai said since all four of us with our Digimon came together. "You're a pretty cool dude, after all." I giggle at that.

"You were so awesome, it made possible for Gomamon to digivolve." Sora complimented, seeing Joe blush with a shy smile on his face.

"That's not why I did it," All four of us look down at the seal. "It's because I'm just a nice guy and besides, Joe would've fallen on his head, that's why." I roll my eyes while he continue rambling, seeing my partner shaking his head of amusement.

"Just chill, Gomamon," I heard Joe, seeing him kneel down to his partner. "You're the best, heroes don't have to fight."

"Um," Gomamon got embarrassed, which it made me and Gaomon laugh a little. "Heroes?" Not until Biyomon goes ahead and ruin it, making the two of us laugh at the scene.

"Let's go, guys," I said as I ran ahead. "We're almost at the top of the mountain, last one there is a rotten Digi-egg!" And we did, hearing my fellow teammates laughing and cheering as we've made it to the top.

We've made it, all right, but I gasped in surprise for what we're seeing.

"There's not much out there." Tai said.

"No, there's not." I murmured. Then, I thought, how do we get home?
