Eight: The Incorrigible Cousin. The last dark general's appearance!

Dark Zone Lair…

Keito, Yoichi, and Hotaru were looking at the vial containing both digital and human energy. It wasn't that full yet, but it looked empty too. Hotaru frowned.

"It's like I never filled it up. I'm sure I gathered more energy than that the other day." She growled.

"Doesn't look like enough to bring back the master's form to me." Impmon sniggered earning a glare from Keito.

"Keep your tongue in your mouth unless you want me to shred it off." Laylamon advised, showing him her vicious long nails.

"Before you two claw each other's eyes out, allow me to make my ascendance to the human world. I believe that I can make better progress than you two girls." Yoichi turned to exit the room, leaving Keito and Hotaru to glare at his back.

"Even though he can be nice at times, when he gets serious he's a jerk." Keito said, Hoatru nodding in agreement.

Yoichi ignored them as he whistled for Dorumon, who happily wagged his tail and followed him. They reached the portal that could send them to the human world and stopped. He turned to see the legendary warrior of darkness, Loweemon behind him.

"Allow me to accompany you into the human world, general. I assure you my help is required." He told him.

"Loweemon my most faithful servant, I want you to help me out okay? The boy has allies with digicells now, I want them all destroyed." Yoichi instructed.

"It shall be done for the master." He replied.

"Life... dreams... hope... Where do they come from? And where do they go? Such meaningless things... I'll destroy them all!" Yoichi cackled as they entered the portal.


Unknown area…

Easmon opened her eyes and looked around her. It had been since yesterday since she saw the little girl and they had planned to start training that day. She smiled, seeing the humans around her go about their day, smiling and having fun.

It was hard to believe that she hadn't been here since birth.

I had no reason to come to this age. I'm not an ally to anyone. I'm not an enemy to anyone. But still, if an age is about to end right now... I might awaken once again. Easmon thought, her eyes closed at the fact of betraying someone.

"Easmon-sama?"

Easmon opened her eyes to see Yanmei and her new partner Lopmon standing next to her. Their innocent faces were glowing with happiness to see her.

"Are we going to start the training now?" Lopmon asked enthusiastically.

Easmon nodded. "Yes let's get the training started, but be warned. I will not go easy on you."

Yanmei and Lopmon smiled and got ready to start. Easmon smiled softly and looked towards the horizon.

A lesson without pain is meaningless. That's because no one can gain without sacrificing something. But by enduring that pain and overcoming it, he shall obtain a powerful, unmatched heart.


The streets of Okinawa…

Rita pulled her hoodie closer to her body. She didn't want to attract any attention to the world around her. She closed her eyes and sighed.

My cousin better know I'm coming tonight or I'll pound her lights out. She thought.

"Well what do we have here?"

Rita opened her eyes to see three burly men surround her. She gave them no smile and cracked her knuckles.

"Gentlemen let's not do something we might regret here." She mocked them.

"The little girl thinks she's cute." The first one said, he and his cronies circling her.

"Let's get her bag." The second one lunged for it and a sickening crack was heard. He keeled over to show the place where Rita put her fist.

"I told you not to mess with me." Rita simply put, wiping her hands.

"The little girl knows how to fight?!" The other two screamed.

Rita smirked and took off her hoodie, revealing her messy blue ponytail. "I take it back. You guys are gluttonous for some punishment aren't ya?"


Above the streets of Okinawa

"So this is the human world? Full of filthy people no less." Yoichi muttered, searching the surrounding area. Dorumon sniffed the rooftop of the building.

"This place smells different than the digital world." He said.

"Because the digital world is very different than here." Yoichi explained.

"Oh…so where's the boy with the red digicell?"

"I sent Loweemon ahead to find him and his friends. If all works well, you'll be seeing a full vial of dark energy back at the master's place."

Dorumon smiled. "You're so smart Yoichi!"

"I know, now let's get to work."


With Loweemon…

"To find on human in a world like this will be hard. But I must continue my search." Loweemon hopped from building to building. He stopped to take a breath and looked down.

"Humans are a strange species. They live their lives in the light while hiding the darkness in their hearts. Their true nature is savage and weaker than digimon. They were meant to be controlled."

He then heard a loud scuffling going on behind him. He turned to see the same thugs being beaten by Rita. She kicked the first one to the ground and back flipped, hitting the second one. The third one woke up and lunged to grab her, but she kicked him in the chest again. With them all knocked out, she flipped her ponytail back into her hood.

"These guys were amateurs, I need a real fighter to play with." She huffed and walked away. Loweemon saw this and a hint of fear danced in his dark heart.

What kind of human was that girl?


Orehime resident…

Kazumi flopped on her bed and closed her eyes. Lunamon followed suit.

"Is it just me or has this week been really crazy?" She asked Lunamon.

"Digivolving one day and saving your school? I'd say that's an improvement." She replied.

Kazumi laughed and rolled over to face her. "You know what; those evil guys won't stand a chance if you can do that again."

"At least now we have a full fighting team! Masanori and Veemon together and not to mention Saturo taking care of Pawnchessmon now."

"I'm starting to wonder what will happen next. We can still go to the digital world if we had the technology."

"I'm not sure, but I get the feeling something bad will happen soon."

Kazumi hugged Lunamon and put her face on her head. "How soon?"

"Just a hunch, don't worry about it." Lunamon assured her.

She was about to reply when she heard her parents calling her name. Kazumi quickly stuffed Lunamon under her pillow and ran outside her room. She ran towards the living room and was shocked to see another person on the couch. She smiled when that person turned around.

"Rita what are you doing here?!" She squealed, giving her cousin a big hug. Rita rolled her eyes and pried her off her shoulders.

"Kazumi, sweetie, I just came to check on the family. And seeing you here just shows me you're such a disappointment as usual." Rita said, rudely.

Kazumi's face fell and she took a sudden interest to her shoes.

"Kazumi we want you and Rita to get along this week. She's only staying that long so make the most of it." Her mother told her.

"She'll also be attending school with you. Isn't the great?" Her father smiled.

Kazumi gritted her teeth. "It'll be super. I mean, we'll be best friends like when we were young." She flashed Rita a grin who in turn growled at her. "Let me show her the guest room." She eyed her backpack in suspicion.

"Calm down Kazumi, I crossed here legally this time." Rita promised her, grabbing her bag.

Kazumi sighed and walked Rita to the guestroom. Lunamon peeked her head out of the doorway of her room.

Poor Kazumi, I hope this cousin of hers doesn't give her a hard time.


Later that night…

"Oh so Rita is back again?"

Kazumi nodded as she and Masanori sat outside their apartments. They were leaned over the balcony while Veemon and Lunamon sat next to them. "Yeah and I wouldn't say this to her face, but she's a witch! She treats me like I'm worthless and doesn't respect me! And it's been like that since we were kids!" She growled and crushed her digicell in her hand, scaring the others.

"Want me to rough her up a bit?" Veemon suggested, punching the air.

"I'd doubt it; she has taken all forms of martial arts and not to mention boxing. She was raised on the streets so she's pretty tough."

Lunamon frowned and looked at the moon. Suddenly, her antenna started to react. "I'm sensing a dark presence nearby!" She shouted.

"Let's get a move on you two!" Veemon commanded them. "Evil never sleeps and so do we!"

"Okay let's-"Kazumi stopped, seeing the door to her apartment opening up. "Quick get in the digicells!" She pressed the middle button and put Lunamon in hers while Masanori did the same with Veemon. The door fully opened to reveal Rita in a blue tank top and black sweatpants. Her blue hair sprawled across her back.

"Hey loser, who's the guy, he's pretty cute." She said, smirking at the horrified face of her cousin. Masanori blushed and looked away.

"Now's not the right time Rita! We have business to attend to elsewhere." Kazumi said through gritted teeth. Rita ignored her and walked up to Masanori, who gave her a serious look. "Geez my cousin can be so annoying. What's the name they call you boy?"

"Masanori and it's nice to meet you." He replied, keeping his cool.

"I've got to say, your eyes show leadership. I like a boy who lives on the wild side." She winked at him and walked back into the house. "I'll tell the folks you two were out on a date."

"WE AREN'T DATING!" They both exclaimed, clear blushes shown on their faces.

Rita pursed her lips and smiled, she closed the door leaving them both red in the face.

"You know what Hiroki-kun? I think I hate her more than Keito." Kazumi hissed, as she and Masanori entered the elevator.


Loweemon watched them run down the walkway into the street.

"So you two have escaped to stop the general? That won't happen while I'm around." He jumped from the roof and landed on the sidewalk.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you."

He turned to see Rita, back in her hoodie, facing him.

"You're the human girl who beat those other humans earlier!" He acknowledged.

Rita shrugged. "Maybe I am, maybe I'm not. But you said you're looking for my cousin and that guy so yeah that's me." She cracked her knuckles and got into a battle stance. "If you want them, you'll have to go through me."

"You dare challenge me? The legendary warrior of darkness?" Loweemon jeered.

"Warrior of Darkness? What a stupid nickname, did your mommy give it to you?" Rita taunted.

Loweemon yelled angrily and charged at her. Rita took a breath and jumped up to avoid his lance. Loweemon's eyes widen as her leg kicked him upside the head. He fell over to see her grin darkly at him.

"Already down for the count? What kind of warrior gets beaten by a girl?" Rita taunted him.

Loweemon got up and crossed his arms in front of him. The lion in the middle of his armor opened it's maw and a dark orb was forming.

"Take this, you brat! SHADOW METEOR!" Rita saw this and rolled to the ground, avoiding it completely.

"Well it seems that I've got my work cut out for me. And a new goal…" She pointed at him. "You're going to be my new fighting partner!"


Next time:

Yoichi: I am the last dark general!

Masanori: No way am I losing to you!

Yanmei: Time to show the extent of my training.

Rita: Meet my new partner guys.

Me: OMG! Rita has entered the playing field!

Rita: How you doin?

Kazumi: Stay away from Hiroki-kun!

Me: With that, please review and tell me who you ship Masanori with!
