One of the funniest chapter I had written. In fact I'm not good in humour. Like to thank Naomi for reading and Digimon is not mine.

Reviews are appreciated.

Chapter 9: Brewing Trouble

A group of Digimon in the Plant Zone was rushing to somewhere. They were leading their priestess of the Zone to somewhere.

"Over here, Mimi-sama." Floramon said pointed to a tree which grew in a huge tree hole. A huge flower was seen glowing inside it. It was pink in colour and it looked like a rose.

"That is?" Mimi gasped when she looked closely.

"But why? The war is over." Floramon asked the priestess.

"I don't know. There is definitely a reason why a Digimental appear at this point in time." Mimi replied deep in thought. Maybe she needed to ask Koushirou about it.

Someone in cloak was watching them gritting his teeth in fury. He had buried it with cement but it appeared to have melted. As expected from the power of the Digimental. You could never hide it. The fated human would find it eventually if it was needed in the era.

No, he would not let them find it. Not him, especially. He was reminded by the blue-haired boy he had been shadowing with a girl in spectacle with a caterpillar and a bee-like Digimon guarding them.

"I'm definitely coming along." Koushirou said excitedly packing his luggage much to Yamato's dismay. "Mimi said there is a Digimental growing in her place. I'll like to take a look."

"Me too." Iori raised his hand in agreement with Armadimon cheering.

"But the war is over." Sora wondered about the reason of its appearance like Mimi.

"Nevertheless, let's take a look." Hikari suggested. She was going there with Takeru for my honeymoon anyway.

"This way, I'll have more time with my brother." Takeru agreed with Hikari's idea. Plotmon and Patamon were dancing with joy on their partners' behalf when Yamato agreed to accompany them reluctantly doing a facepalm.

"Seems that our trip is extended." Sora said smiling to her husband. Yamato, on the other hand could not wait to go home. He was tired from all the escorting trips he and Sora had been making including those he could not remember.

"I must see my sister! Please take me to the Holy Zone." A young boy with huge brown hair bowed before Yamato and his wife.

"Thank you." The young boy, even younger than Iori was beaming in happiness when Yamato finally agreed. He did not even know who he was looking for but he agreed after some persuasion from Sora anyway.

"You're leaving." Miyako asked Ken who was packing up with Wormmon watching over him.

"Yeah…" Ken nodded hesitantly.

"Are you coming with us?" Wormmon asked in concern. Miyako was fidgeting. It was not easy for her to even get herself out from her base from the Wind Zone to the Insect Zone.

"Miyako-san." Hawkmon was worried for his partner. She seemed really depressed. Totally different from her energetic self back in their base.

"You don't have to come with us if you don't feel up to it." Terriermon said qwalking over with Wallace.

"I can stay with you if you don't mind." Wallace kneeled before her and held her hand. Miyako blushed while Ken had an annoyed look. His jealousy was acting up.

"Wallace, we have to move on if you want to get home quick. Our parents must have called the police by now." Ken reminded him. He was worried if he got Daisuke and the rest into trouble for his disappearance this time.

"I know." Wallace let go of her hands.

"Find the key and head back home." Wallace repeated his mission in a serious tone.

I'm sorry, Miyako. Even though I ask you out." Ken apologized.

"It's okay. Thanks to you, I get to see the bright blue sky." Miyako walked to the window. "This is what he would have wanted." Miyako said while thinking of the boy with the same face as Ken. With a sudden surge of confidence she smiled and turned to the boys.

"I'm joining you on the journey to the Plant Zone." Miyako said.

"Miyako-san." Hawkmon smiled feeling proud of her. So were Ken, Wallace and their Digimon who nodded.

"We're with you. There is nothing to fear." Ryo's voice was heard and he was seen leaning at the door.

"That's right, it's all about spirit." V-mon blurted out suddenly before retreating behind Ryo afraid that he would be shunned. Koushirou totally ignored his presence to the extent that Ryo had to bring him food in secret.

"Hey!" Monodramon was just jealous of Ryo's special treatment to V-mon. He wanted him to stay a distance away from Ryo.

"Speaking of spirit, I won't lose to anyone, not to V-mon especially!" Miyako cracked her knuckles. She was back to her usual self.

"Where is the spirit you used to have as the partner Digimon of the tyrant emperor?" Miyako demanded. V-mon smiled gratefully.

"Miyako-san, have you forgiven him?" Ken asked.

"Yeah, not that he had done anything bad to me." Miyako replied. That was of course. Those who hated the emperor was directly harmed or affected by him.

The group finally headed out. During their journey, they were chit-chatting among themselves. Ken was often seen glancing at the direction of Hikari who had been giggling while walking with Takeru. Even Miyako had noticed it. She would not admit that she was a little jealous even though her best friend was already married.

Ken frowned. He had been trying to find a chance to talk to Hikari but he could not bring himself to. He looked down in shame.

"Ken-chan, the weather is nice today." Wormmon tried to get Ken's attention.

"Yeah."

Ryo and Wallace were walking side-by-side and were practically ignoring each other, disliking each other. Even Monodramon, V-mon and Terriermon felt awkward.

"I'll speak to Wallace." Terriermon said forcing a smile.

The three of them frowned at the memories of the two boys fighting and arguing about their hypothesis of this dimension. It was so embarrassing to fight in front of people travelling with them debating on the theories of the world they were living in.

"I guess I'll help too." Monodramon said leaning his head on his arms.

"How is the dimension you're staying in like?" Terriermon decided to ask Monodramon. To be honest, Ryo and Monodramon were familiar but he could not remember if he had met them before.

"It's a world of Tamers where the Tamers boost their partners with power by doing a card slash in their D-Ark, Ryo has on hand." Monodramon described striking a pose.

"I see." Terriermon replied. He could definitely see another boy performing the same procedure in the back of his mind even though Terriermon could not see his face. Maybe if Terriermon could recall the feel of his stronger self, he could become stronger.

"Is Cyberdramon your highest form?"

"No, Justimon is. It's my ultimate form evolved via Matrix Evolution with Ryo. Something V-mon can never do with Ryo." Monodramon teased. V-mon sighed. He wished Daisuke was here with him so he would not have to be caught up with so much nonsense. He stopped walking when he saw Terriermon in a trance.

"Hey, are you okay?" Terriermon stopped suddenly. He saw some images in his mind. He saw a giant green robotic Digimon standing before him.

"You'll understand one day. Stay close to Wallace." The Digimon told him before Terriermon came back to his senses.

"Thank you for coming to pick us up. Mimi-san." Koushirou said to the priestess at the entrance of the Zone.

"You are most welcome. I'm the one who invited you in the first place." Mimi smiled and said in the most polite way. Her elegance was something Hikari was envious about.

"Don't worry, you are fine the way you are, Hikari." Plotmon said reading her partner's mind. Hikari smiled.

"Mimi-oneesama, can we be friends?" Miyako actually took the liberty to approach Mimi much to Hikari's surprise. She did not even dare to talk to the priestess who was one of the most important people in the zone. Miyako was too direct. That was also something Hikari admired her about. Miyako's true self.

"Of course." Said Mimi who smiled. Miyako jumped in joy.

"Looks like she's really back to herself." Ryo commented to Ken.

"Mimi and Miyako have a great relationship like sisters back in other world. This fact is not changed." Ken replied.

Mimi greeted the Prince and his consort. Hikari was blushing forgetting her current identity now. She was not used with the etiquette.

"Nice to meet you too." Hikari bowed frantically.

"Hikari-chan resembled a little to someone I know." Mimi suddenly said. "Come to think of it, I hope he can find his sister though." Mimi commented when she was interrupted by another voice.

"Wow, what a crowd!" A beast-man Ultimate Digimon wearing a fur with two morning stars arrived to greet the priestess.

"Vikemon-sama, what brings you here?" Mimi asked looking beyond the Digimon.

"I'm on my way to the Sea Zone and I need to pass through the Plant Zone." The huge white Digimon replied.

"Mimi-san is elegant as usual. Well, I need to go. See you and your friends around." With that the Digimon left. Mimi heaved a sigh of relief.

"Vikemon seems reliable. Is he Mimi-sama's friend? " Ryo asked Mimi.

"He is too powerful for his own good." Mimi merely replied.

"Did you miss me?" A female Digimon crept and hugged Mimi from the back to everyone's surprise.

"Let me go, Lilimon. You're always this mischievous." Mimi turned to her and was shocked. It was not Lilimon. She had changed her appearance. Now she was like a grown-up woman like red rose in contrast to Lilimon's "teenage" girl appearance. Lilimon was Mimi's best friend.

"I'm Rosemon now, Mimi, am I pretty? I trained hard and finally evolved." Mimi flinched upon hearing her voice. Digimon were encouraged to train and get stronger to help guard the Zone they came from but whenever there was a powerful Digimon around, chances was there would be more bloodshed.

Mimi got a bad feeling whenever she saw Digimon of that level. Human's fear would grow. It seemed to be how the world works. There was always a reason for everything. Human received Digimental and contracted with Digimon because they were needed to fight against the Digimon Emperor. Ultimate level Digimon were rare as they were rarely needed unless, their power were needed to control the balance between good and evil.

"Mimi-sama, are you alright?" Ryo asked. He felt weird talking to Mimi like that too considering the other Mimi in the other dimensions seemed much casual.

"Yes, thank you for your concern. This way please." She led the group into her place to settle them in.

"We'll head to the place where I found it tonight. It's glowing especially beautifully at night." Mimi suggested.

"Please feel free to make yourselves comfortable. Of course, please feel free to use our herb onsen. It'll help you to relax after your long journey." Mimi winked at them for a short moment before "returning to herself".

"This is so comfortable!" Miyako commented sitting in the onsen talking to Sora and Hikari.

"It had been a long time since you came here." Hikari said smiling, washing her hair.

"You hair is especially beautiful, Hikari-chan." Sora exclaimed looking at her smooth and silky long hair.

"Unlike ours, we can't maintain them in conditions like our Wind Zone. Of course I can't say for the same for Miyako-chan who is always cooped up in her base." Sora teased on purpose.

"Can't you say something nice for once, Sora-san." Miyako sulked.

"While we're here. We better be on our look-out." Sora reminded the girls. "You know there can be "monsters" out here bathing with us."

"Monsters, you mean the boys such as Onii-sama? Don't you trust your husband?" Hikari giggled. She trusted Takeru since they were already married.

"Real Digimon, I mean." Sora blushed madly.

Mimi warned Sora of a certain Digimon who would probably be using the onsen tonight as he loved to bath here. He had gone on the same training with Vikemon, Rosemon and three other Digimon from various zones with legendary Holy Beast Digimon. They better steer clear if they saw him in sight because...

"Because..." Miyako could not wait to break the suspense.

"He hates to be seen naked. He'll kill you." Sora whispered.

"Oh my god, I thought Digimon are all naked." Hikari covered her mouth.

"I wonder if Mimi had warned the boys."

"Ah choo." Mimi sneezed.

"Are you okay, Mimi-sama?" Floramon asked. She did a great job in waiting on the priestess when Lilimon was out training.

"I think I forgot to do something but I can't remember what." Mimi exclaimed as if it was not a problem.

"Oh Mimi..." Rosemon laughed. No one should see her mischievous side.

The ground trembled. Tremor could be felt. Mimi and the two Digimon quieted down.

"Guess the guests have got themselves into trouble." Rosemon tried to control her laughter. Mimi started to dress up.

"I have to show myself to clear the mess I had created."

Koushirou were seen running with Iori in the forest.

"Why the hell did you try to cut his wing?" Iori cried running.

"I have never seen a giant flower in gold." Koushirou explained as if it was not an issue but the Digimon was angered.

"That's not even a flower." Iori retorted. "How can you not differentiate between an insect Digimon and a flower!"

"Not when I'm so close to seeing a Digimental!" Koushirou raised his voice while running.

"We better run." Frogmon leaped. "I can't deal with an Ultimate Digimon."

They bumped into the pair of blonde brothers racing out from the bath riding on Pegasmon.

"Niisan saw what he shouldn't. The Digimon is going to kill us. " Takeru did not know whether to cry or laugh.

"He even stole his fur." Takeru added to a list of his complaint.

"No, I took by accident. He has a nice fur and I like it." Yamato tried to explain holding up what he had stolen.

With that the boys ran back to their temporary accommodation with golden Ultimate Insect Digimon, HerakleKabuterimon who was chasing after them. He was stopped by Mimi who ended up bowing and apologizing to him.

"Well well, since priestess-han is speaking up for you, I'll let this go. There's no next time, you hear me." The Digimon lowered himself to Koushirou who forced a smile and nodded. The next action he did catch Koushirou by surprise.

"Is my wing chipped?" He showed his back to Koushirou.

"As for Yamato-san, he won't come out without his fur pelt, return it to him." Mimi ordered like a master would.

"Yes." Yamato replied hesitantly. He could not believe that a Digimon needed to cover himself up despite most being naked.

"Good luck, Yamato-sama." Iori nudged Yamato who glared at him annoyingly.

Wallace who witnessed that was amused. He wished Ken was here to see these.

As for Ken, he went exploring on his own with Wormmon and V-mon who decided to follow him. His D3 reacted to a signal from the said Digimental Mimi was going to show them but he could not wait till then.

Holding on to the torchlight he found his way to the sacred tree where the Digimental was glowing.

"Who is it?" Ken turned his head around all the sudden as he sensed another presence. It felt like the person who had been stalking him. A boy in cloak approached Ken.

"I have been waiting for you, Yasashi-kun. I didn't think you're still alive all these time." The boy in cloak said.
