Disclaimer- I don't own the concept of Digimon Digital Monsters, nor do I own the characters, but I do claim rights to Rhona, my personal character!

Hey people! Yes, that's right! I'm back! I suppose I better tell you all my excuses, huh? Well here goes…

1. Kay, well, I have exams in like a wee while, and I'm having real trouble at school, (I've suddenly got really stupid,) so I've been studying a lot more and trying to keep in with the work and not lose control of it all.

2. I got an e-mail just before Christmas from saying someone complained about one of my stories, meaning the story got automatically deleted and I got a warning-which instantly angered me, slightly putting me off.

3. I'm currently in the middle of writing my own book, so most of my writing 'skills' (if ya wanna call them that,) have been channelled to my story, to make sure it is of best quality and nothing lower.

Okay, so originally with everything that had been going on, I had pretty much decided to give up on but then for the past month, several different people have pleaded for me to continue with my stories, and it's thanks to them which got me writing my Fanfiction again, so be proud o' yourselves guys!

Okay, um, it's a pretty basic Chapter this, but that's 'cause I've had to update like 13 stories in one so, obviously it ain't gonna be the best Chapter ever, lol, anyways please read and review, reviews are what keep me updating! (Not that I'm blackmailing all of you… eh-hem)


Brrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnnnnnggggggg

"This is just typical! How come I'm always late when I have an important subject first!" she groaned, as she ran up the long pathway that led up to her school, from the bus park.

Her bus had been late, once again, which she knew would get her into trouble.

Suddenly, she felt something bounce off her cheek; she raised a hand and lightly wiped it off, water? She thought to herself, she looked upwards to the sky, it was all dark and grey, "Rain…" she whimpered.

And at the moment she said that, the heaven's opened, bringing fourth heavy rain!

Why? Why do I live in this country? I could be living in L.A, with constant sunshine and heat; I could be living in Jamaica or even Japan! But no, I live in the country with one type of weather… Rain…

She sighed heavily, as she started to speed up her pace, her bag bouncing against her hip as she ran.

The rain slowly started to become heavier as each second passed, until it started to feel like someone was throwing bullets down at her, "It's supposed to be Summer, damn you!" she cried angrily, ignoring that fact she sounded like a complete idiot.

"Talking to yourself again?" a confident voice cut in.

She turned her head around to see a boy running beside her, she smiled, "Well, if you were listening, I guess not!" she joked slyly.

The boy broke into a wide grin, "Just think, we could be home, asleep in bed…"

The girl sighed heavily, "I know… All I wanna do is lie in bed and play Final Fantasy 9!" she moaned in annoyance.

(A/N: Sorry, but I just had to put that in… Final Fantasy 9… It's an addiction…)

The boy raised an eyebrow, amused, "How far are ya?"

"Still on Disc one…" she said quietly, avoiding eye contact with the boy, because she knew exactly what his reaction was going to be.

The boy sweat dropped and tried as hard as possible to not burst out laughing, "You've still on Disc one!"

"Oh… Shut up!" she pouted, "I've had a lot going on at the moment…"

The boy's expression rapidly changed, "Oh yeah, with the moving and all…"

She looked at the boy then nodded, remembering that should have been what she was so tied up with, but of course it wasn't…

When she didn't reply the boy got concerned, "Something wrong?" he queried, his eyes gleaming with worry.

"Huh?" she shook her head back into reality, "Oh no, it's nothing, just a little tired, ya ken?" she smiled softly.

"Aye," the boy nodded understandingly.

The pair continued to run onwards in complete silence, both not really wanting to speak, thinking that it might slow them down or something.

(Reader's raise eyebrows, Me: I dunno!)

She looked down at the ground as she ran, watching as the rain smashed against the path beneath her, the sound of the constant pattering echoing throughout her head, when suddenly a flashback filled her mind…

Flashback

Her eyes widened in fear, as her pupils grew small, "No! Stay away from me!"

Although she tried to escape, she suddenly felt the same pain and struggle as she did on that day long ago…

"NO! Not again!" she cried as the water level rose quickly, speedily surrounding her shivering body as she kicked and struggled weakly.

Suddenly she felt all her energy and power being sucked out of her, "No… Help me…" she whispered softly, just as her head fell underneath the water…

She looked around, her eyes filled with terror, she was surrounded by pitch-blackness, although she had always loved the dark, this wasn't something she was too thrilled about.

She waved her arms about frailly, but knew it was pointless, she could never escape, it would just keep coming after her, never giving up, until it had finally caught her and pulled her deep into the murky depths of hell…

Why had she come back here? She then realised the answer to her own question… Because it was like someone had told her too, when she was holding the strange device in her hands, it was like someone was right beside her, telling her what to do, whispering detailed instructions in her ear.

She didn't know to hold the device towards the computer, no, she was told to do it…

Then she remembered the device! It was the thing that brought me here! It could take me back!

Just at that moment, she burst out of the water and dug her fingers deep into the sand as she tried to pull herself out, although it seemed the water wouldn't let go of her, it was holding on to her, trying to pull her back under…

No, I won't give up, I'm so close… she thought to herself, as she reached out for the device, her eyes filled with determination.

She grabbed the device and held it infront of her face, "Take me back!" she screamed, "Take me away from this place!"

End Flashback

"YO!" the boy cried, "Ya in there?"

She gasped in surprise as she returned back to reality, her head jolted up, as she looked up, confused to what was happening, her friend was standing infront of her, holding her by the shoulders, "H-huh?"

"Are you okay?" the boy asked, she noticed that he was truly worried for her, she could tell by his eyes, she had always been able to read eyes so easily.

"What… What do you mean?" she questioned, as she felt her self slightly stumble to the side, she suddenly felt so dizzy and weak…

"While we were running, you just stopped, you were major zoned out! Your eyes went all funny, they, well, they looked really weird and…" he paused as he gazed at her eyes, "Now they're back to normal…"

She frowned in confusion, Weird eyes?

The boy noticed her confusion, She must be so tired and confused with everything that's going on at the moment, I bet she's got it pretty hard the now… He smiled kindly, his eyes softening as he shrugged casually, "It doesn't matter, now come on! We're late enough!" he pulled her forward playfully.

She continued to look at the boy, confused, but quickly shook it off as she followed after him, No big deal… I hope…
