Hello everyone! Yes, another update for you guys. I know shocking since I'm being pelted by papers and such, but this is for you all who stucked with me~!

Anyways, once again we go to New York in this chapter. Yes, I know there the New York kids seem to have more chapters, but don't worry the kids in Tokyo are going to get their turn soon (actually they're back next chapter so XD)

So let's get started shall we~?

Disclaimer: I own my characters and the plot. Nothing more.

Agumon and Impmon blinked twice before staring at their respective partners. Will and Chris both were leaning against the wall of Reina's room as they awkwardly looked around.

"Not what I expected from a girl's room…" Chris mumbled as Will nodded his in agreement, eyeing the plain white colored walls and the clean white not frilly bed sheets. Chris eyed the piles of dirty clothes near the flat screen television that he wished he had, not that he was going to admit it out loud.

Overall the room was just plain with simple furniture with nothing that screamed femininity in their faces. To tell the truth they were slightly disappointed since they expected the pink and overly feminine room. It would have been funny to see Reina get embarrassed were the lines they both thought together.

When Reina walked out of her bathroom (which was connect to her room), she paused at the look on Will and Chris' face. She shared a look with Agumon and Impmon who shrugged her shoulders at her questioning look.

"Umm..Guys?" Tearing there eyes away from where their eyes were trained on Reina's room, the two males looked up and almost busted out laughing when they spotted the huge nude color bandage placed on Reina's forehead.

"Got that from the pole, I see." Will teased as he remembered the incident that happened only a day ago. After running away from Jack, Reina had crashed her head into a pole. A humorous sight it was.

The girl flushed a light pink as her eyebrow twitched.

"Don't even talk about it." Reina hissed as she narrowed her eyes threateningly. The two males stiffened at the promised death that flashed through her eyes and nodded quickly.

"So, why are we here anyway?" Chris asked, changing the subject quickly as he eyed the clock mounted on the wall. There was still twenty minutes before school started.

"Well, I wanted to remind you guys to find Zane today." Will blinked at this.

"Is that all? You could have just called us." Will pointed out. Reina shook her head.

"That's not the only reason either. I wanted Agumon and Impmon here cause I wanted them to meet someone." She said before going towards her bathroom again.

Impmon and Agumon looked a bit confused.

"Is it something edible?" Agumon asked, earning a smack on the back of the head by Impmon.

"Idiot! Is food all you think about!" Impmon yelled and Agumon rubbed the back of his head. Agumon would have retorted, but stopped when Reina come out of her bathroom with a red digimon in tow.

"Coronamon…Seriously, stop being shy!" Reina said, tugging on Coronamon's arm. Coronamon grumbled something under his breath before letting Reina pull him towards Will, Agumon, Chris and Impmon. The group of males blinked.

"Guys, this is Coronamon. He's my Digimon partner." Reina said proudly and Will gaped at her.

"Is this the same Digimon that was accused of attacking Daniel?" Reina nodded to this.

"Yeah. But he didn't do it for sure." Reina said confidently and Chris rose a brow.

"What. Did you break him out jail or something. Why is he your partner all of a sudden?" Chris questioned as Reina pushed Coronamon towards Agumon and Impmon. Impmon frowned at the new Digimon as Agumon furiously greeted him with happiness.

"Sort of…" Reina said a small smile that made Chris blink. Chris was going to ask more about this, but the door busted opened as Reina's older brother came skipping in.

"Reina~~! I heard from Andrea that there's boys here. I didn't know you could be such a fox~." Twitching furiously, Reina marched her way towards her bed before grabbing one of her pillows as her older brother turned to Will and Chris.

"Oh~. This one," Her older brother said pointing at Chris, "is soo Andrea's typ-"

Chris and Will sweat dropped as pillow came flying from the other side of the room, hitting Reina's older brother with so much force that he fell flat onto his back.

"I give her a 10." Coronamon commented as Agumon agreed. Impmon scoffed.

"No way. That sucked. I give her a fou-" Nobody was surprised as another pillow suddenly hit Impmon square in the face and he landed on the floor on his back.

"-r hundred." was his muffled response.

Chapter Ten:

New York City

Seth leaned back in his seat as he took a glance at the school clock. It was ten minutes before class started and no sight of Reina anywhere.

He was beyond curious as to what was going on. He couldn't stop thinking about the meeting between Reina and the stalker guy around the middle school around his neighborhood. How did the two of them know each other and why was his name mentioned in their conversation.

"Shit, why isn't she here." Seth mumbled to himself with a small sigh. It was only a minute later when the said girl walked into the classroom with a couple of books in her arms. She looked a little peeved off as she went over to her seat and dumped all her things onto it.

Taking a seat, she mumbled something under her breath before touching the giant bandage on her forehead. Well that was certainty interesting, she didn't have that before. Getting up from his seat, Seth gingerly walked over to Reina's desk. Thankfully, his actions didn't seem to draw any attention.

Reina paused from flipping her notebook open when a large shadow fell over it. Looking up, she was genuinely surprised at the person standing there.

"I need to talk to you." he said and Reina blinked.

"I do too, but it has to wait. Class is about to start and I'm not going to skip class or school just to talk to you." Reina said point blank and Seth was surprised this, but didn't show it on his face. Instead he frowned.

"Fine, we'll talk after school…By the way, nice bandage." He said with a small smirk before going back to his seat. Reina twitched furiously, feeling the urge to hit him with the book in her hands.

"It wasn't my fault!" She cried and accidentally drew attention to herself. Reina blushed a light pink in embarrassment before burying her head into the book in front of her.

It was around three o'clock pm as Zane strolled casually down the street. Deciding the casual root by the middle school looked nice, the male walked through with his cape fluttering behind him. He swore he heard whispering as he was about to pass a tree, but merely shrugged it off.

As he took a step directly parallel to said tree, he heard a yell that went like this:

"ONETWOTHREEGO!" Zane's eyes widened only a centimeter as two males jumped out from behind the tree. Gracefully, the male sidestepped Will and Chris before eyeing them curiously.

Will had managed to not flat on his face, thanks for his reflexes and quickly stood up. Unfortunately, Chris did just that and jumped to his feet, rubbing at his forehead with kissed the ground just that second ago.

"Damn he's fast." Chris mumbled and Will nodded his head in agreement. Zane looked on with confusion before Chris faced him with a frown.

"We need you to come with us." Chris stated and Zane smirked a bit at this.

"Am I sensing a battle?" Will blinked before stepping in.

"No no. We just need to discuss something with you. Please, it's really important." Zane frowned before speaking.

"It might be important to you, but I have better things to do." Will frowned at this as Zane turned on his heel and attempted to walk away. Chris stopped him by grabbing his arm firming.

"Not so fast. This is really important. You're going to need our help as much as we need yours." Zane rose a brow at the last sentence.

"…How so?" As Chris explained what had happened to him, Reina and Will the past week, Will reached for phone and dialed Reina's number.

"So…the murders happening around here…They're because of me?" Seth asked again to get clarification and Reina nodded.

"Yes. Basically the murders around this city and the world is because of us. Eight of us. You're part of it." Reina said and Seth paused in his steps as the information sunk in. Reina adjusted her backpack on her shoulders as she waited for Seth.

"So…The eight of us…What makes us so special?" Seth asked before walking again. Reina fell in step next to him and she shrugged her shoulders.

"I have no idea, honestly. To be blunt, I don't think we have anything special about us." Reina said. Seth seemed to agree with her for the most, so he nodded his head.

"I mean other the fact we can stop a rise of a World War III, we're pretty normal." Seth added. Reina was going to say something, but her phone started going off. She quickly burrowed her hands into her uniform skirt pocket and flipped the phone open.

"Hello?" Seth watched as Reina exchanged words with the other person on the phone before she smiled a bit. Flipping the phone closed and stuffing it once more into her pocket, she turned to Seth.

"I don't know how you feel like running, but we need to get somewhere fast."

"You're joking." Chris said with a frown as Zane just shook his head. Will flipped his phone closed before joining the two males conversation.

"What's going on?" Will asked curiously and Chris turned to him with a frown.

"This guy refuses to join us." Chris stated and Will looked shocked.

"What! Why?" Will demanded at Zane who was standing there with his arms to his chest.

"I'm not fond of crowds." Zane said simply and Chris' eye twitched.

" That has nothing to do with it! There is a crazy guy with a Renamon going around trying to kill us. The more of us there are, the less likely he's going to attack us." Chris cried and Will nodded his head in agreement.

"Zane, this is really serious." Zane frowned at Will.

"I can take care of myself. It also draws a lot of attention of we all group together." Chris looked frustrated and Will's once happy smile, looked strained.

The three males were arguing by the time, Reina and Seth jogged up. Blinking, the two were confused at the scene before them.

"What's going on?" She asked and the males turned to her. Zane seemed to recognize her because he gave her a simple nod as a greeting.

"Zane rather solo than be part of us." Will explained and Reina's eyebrows shot up.

"What! Why?"

"I said the same thing." Will said with a small sigh as he crossed his arms to his chest. Placing her hands on her hips, Reina turned to Zane with narrowed eyes.

"Don't even think about it. We're stronger as a team than by ourselves. This is no time to be playing lone wolf!" Zane tilted his head to the side as he stared at her.

"I rather not. It's more difficult that way in my opinion. What's with the bandage, by the way." Reina's eye started to twitch violently.

"You know I was wondering the same thing." Seth added in and Will placed a hand on the male's shoulder.

"It was a funny story really. You see-"

"Will, I don't think is the time for that." Chris said and Will pouted and opened his mouth to retort, but Reina's yell cut him off.

"You know what! I know you're type. Fine, I challenge you to battle." Everyone's eyes, even the calm Zane, widened in surprise as Reina thrust her index finger in his direction.

"What." Was the only thing Zane could come up to say.

"Battle. Right here in six days. You have a Digimon, right?" Zane nodded his head.

"Yeah, bu-"

"No buts! Six days from now at this time, I'll meet you here. We'll battle. If I win, you have to join us. If you win, we'll leave you alone for the most part."

" If I refuse?" Zane inquired.

"Then you'll have to join us. If you don't show up, I'll personally find you. I have connects like no other thanks to my parents." Zane remained quiet as he thought about the challenge the girl has given him.

Chris and Will seemed to have paled in horror at what the girl has proposed as Seth watched the interaction with big interest.

Chris was the one who spoke, "Stupid, what do you think you're doing! This is too reckles-"

"Fine." Zane cut him off. Reina smirked lightly before sticking her hand out.

"See you here in six days then." Zane smirked before shaking Reina's hand. At the same time, the two turned on their heels and walked away from each other.

Will gaped at the interaction that had just took place. Seth looked confusingly excited as Chris looked a bit angry.

"Idiot! What the hell did you just do!"

Jack paced around the room furiously as Renamon watched in boredom. She felt an headache coming on as the male kept going back and forth.

"That guy. Who the hell does he think he is? I'll kill him." He hissed out and Renamon sighed.

"Would you shut up already. You're being annoying." Renamon stated and Jack shot her a glare.

"I blame you. How the hell did you lose? I made sure to train you so you can easily beat trash like him!" Renamon was going to reply when the door of the apartment was roughly pushed open. LadyDevimon walked in and planted herself down onto the couch.

She completely ignored Jack as she turned to Renamon.

"There's been a sighting of a crest yesterday." Renamon's eyes widened at this and Jack stopped ranting.

"With one?" Jack inquired.

"Light." LadyDevimon cringed as she said this and Jack let out a small laugh.

"How fitting~. Seems like Ava, Sis and the newbie are having all the fun." Jack pouted at the end of the sentence and Renamon rolled her eyes at her partner.

"Also, about the guy that you two lost to. He has made contact with the other three and there's a new person with them as well." LadyDevimon reported. Jack eyes narrowed at this before a big smile started to erupt on his face.

"Now this is more like it~."

End of Episode Ten

I don't know why but I love writing about Jack and LadyDevimon. Jack is a fun character to write in my opinion. Anyways, hope you liked this. Not sure when I'm going to update again, but hopefully soon. I do have other stories and I'm currently planning a Kingdom Hearts Oc story (Thank you, Chaos in the Sky for nudging me into Kingdom Hearts for my next fic) which I am happy with and really excited for~.

Yes, I will be accepting Ocs for that story as well. I can't wait to start that, but I promised myself I will focus on this more before getting into depth with it.

Anyways, leave a review like always and see you guys next time ^^~
