Chapter 12: The Good, the Bad and the Digi
After the training session that happened a few days ago, Tai and the others have accepted their elemental powers, while Kari, Davis, and TK accepted their duties as Keybalde Wielders, but it made Davinia worry that they'll be in more dangerous situations unsure of whether they were going to survive or not.
Now, Davinia, Davis, V-mon, Veemon and Gaomon were walking around the Digital World in a part of the forest area near a lake where they came to train or just relax.
"Are you still thinking about training them?" Gaomon asked.
"Yeah and I don't know what to do. I know that it's my duty to teach the new Keyblade Wielders. Do you think I'm a good teacher?" Davinia asked as she drew legs up to her chest.
"It all depends on you, Davey." V-mon said.
"Yeah, Sis don't be so glum about it." Davis smiled comforting his twin.
The female Hybrid nodded at this as she thinks back to when she received both of her DigiEggs, how both seemed to call out to her and Davis and felt warm as she and her brother touched them.
Sighing, Davinia looks into the water as it ripples and turned gray slowly.
Interested, she focused her sky-blue eyes on it as the form of some sort of strange creature with snake-like eyes appeared.
Her sky-blue eyes stared over, her pupils fading away as she continued to stare into those snake eyes as her body felt cold.
Gaomon, V-mon, Veemon, and Davis noticed that something seemed off with Davinia and this worried them.
"Davey/Lady Davey?" Gaomon and V-mon called.
The voice of the two Digimom made Davinia snapped out of trance she was under and shook her head as her eyes went back to normal and looked back at the lake only to see it was crystal blue as before.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Veemon asked
"Yeah, you look like you've seen a ghost." Davis said as Davinia forced a smile as she gave a sheepish smile.
"I must've been thinking too hard." Davinia said.
It didn't settle the three down at all, but they let it slide as they decided to keep a closer eye on Davinia.
Suddenly, Davinia and Davis' D-3 started to beep like it was giving off a distress signal so the twins pulled it out to see a yellow dot blinking rapidly.
"Cody." Davinia whispered.
Davinia and Davis stood up and started running in the direction the distress signal was coming from, with Gaomon, Veemon, and V-mon following them.
With Cody and Armadillomon…
Biyomon sent out a distress signal to Sora. So, she went to the Digital World with Yolei and Cody however Kari and TK were unable to be found.
The group arrived in a town in the desert and met a Starmon who attacked them and tied them up to place in a western jail cell where Biyomon was found.
Deputymon arrived and took the girls and their Digimon away since he stated that he didn't want boys' playing cards with them because they also cheated.
"I'm starving." Armadillomon groaned as his stomach whined for food.
"We'll get out of here soon." Cody assured.
Just then, they heard footsteps outside of the door making them look over to see if Starmon or Deputymon arrived.
Starmon: Hey, who're-
Starmon was there, but then was silenced as something that sounded like shattering glass was heard.
The jingling of keys was heard next as the door was unlocked and then opened by the Digimon who had the dark ring missing.
Starmon: I've sorry for the trouble, once again.
"Forget it." Gaomon said as he, V-mon and Veemon walk in.
Davinia and Davis then run in next. Her sky blue worried eyes settled on the Duo of Knowledge which she sighed in relief to see they were safe.
"Cody!" Davinia and Davis called running over to the cage.
"Armadillomon." The twin dragons, and dog said as they rushed over.
"Davey, Davis, you came." Cody smiled.
"Great timing. I was getting close to eating these ropes." Armadillomon joked.
Starmon: Just hold on a jiffy.
He unlocked the cage and the Twin DigiDestineds untied the ropes around the two younger members of the DigiDestineds.
"What happened?" Davinia asked as Davis pulled Cody up.
"Sora came with us to help save Biyomon, but Starmon tricked us and locked us." Cody explained.
Starmon: I'm sorry Your Highness, I'd blame the dark ring, but that wouldn't be fair.
"Where are the others?" Gaomon asked.
"Deputymon came and took the girls to play a poker game." Armadillomon said.
Starmon: That no good varmint! Always has to flirt with the ladies instead of doin' his job. That knuckle head.
Gaomon, V-mon, and Veemon sighed at this as they smell some food and walk over to the drawer to find a bento and grabbed it before the others ran out.
Starmon was too busy ranting to notice them thankfully.
Once the group was far enough from the town, Gaomon set it down and handed the bento box over to Armadillomon.
"You'll need your energy to Digivolve." Gaomon said.
Armadillomon then had stars in his eyes as drool trickled from his mouth as he took the bento box being offered from the cat.
"Thanks!" Armadillomon nearly shouted as he ripped the plastic top and started gobbling the food up.
Cody, Davis, Veemon, V-mon, and Davinia chuckled as the armadillo eagerly ate the food as Gaomon shook her head in amusement.
The boy grew serious as he turned to Davinia as he thought back to what happened last time he seen her.
"Davey, why didn't you tell us about your past in the first place or tell us that you're a DigiDestined?" Cody asked.
She gasped lightly as she looked down at him, then took in a deep breath before she let it out.
"I didn't want anyone else to get hurt because of me. I've already lost so many friends who died protecting me." Davinia said, "I don't know how to tell the rest of my past to you guys when it's still painful. You guys barely know my past."
"But Davinia, you don't know about us either." Cody pointed out.
"He has a point sis." Davis agreed as Davinia just groaned at that knowing he had a point.
"I just don't feel comfortable. I'm used to fighting with Gaomon and V-mon. It'll just take some time for me to get used to fighting with you guys." Davinia explained.
"But you've molded into our team just fine before. And you, Gaomon, and V-mon were always watching over us and coming to save us when we need it. You and Davis are perfect as our leaders and you're a great teacher." Cody said as his dark green eyes were watering a bit as he gave her a pleading look and she just shook her head.
This wasn't going to go anywhere.
"Let's focus on saving the girls." Veemon said.
"I'm ready to go." Armadillomon said.
The three DigiDestineds nodded as they pulled out their D-3s.
DigiArmor Energize! V-mon Armor Digivolve to… Lighdramon, the Tempest of Friendship!
DigiArmor Energize! Gaomon Armor Digivolve to… Flamemon, the Blaze of Bravery!
DigiArmor Energize! Veemon Armor Digivolve to… Raidramon, the Storm of Friendship!
DigiArmor Energize! Armadillomon Armor Digivolve to… Digmon, the Drill of Power!
Davinia and Davis mounted Raidramon and Lightdramon as Davinia pulls out her D-3 and picked up two red dots that were in the distance together.
"OK, the girls are 3 miles in that direction. There also might be Control Spire here too if Starmon had a dark ring on him. Find that Spire and destroy it, Flamemon go with Cody and Digmon and help them." Davinia said unknowingly going into the role as the second leader.
Cody and Davis nodded with a small smile at the fact that she didn't even notice how much of a second great leader she would make.
"You got it." Digmon said.
He picked up Cody and took off to find the Spire with Flamemon, while Lighdramon and Raidramon took off in the other direction, following the signals of the Keepers of Love.
Meanwhile…
Deputymon did a trick with the cards, praising himself while Sora and Yolei clapped with forced eagerness.
"This guy is full of himself." Yolei whispered.
"It must've fill his hat also." Sora whispered back.
Laughing, Deputymon turned the cards in his hand over.
Deputymon: Straight flush. I win again.
"That's great." The lavender haired girl said weakly.
"Yeah." Sora sighed.
Biyomon and Hawkmon were both groaning in despair of how long this game was taking and with Deputymon stopped playing to talk about how wonderful he was, it made it much worst.
"When do you think, we could get some food?" Hawkmon asked.
"You promised snacks but never got them." Biyomon said.
"Yeah, what's up with that?" Yolei asked reminded of her own hunger.
Deputymon: You'll get them after I win this hand.
Just as the country Digimon was going to reach another card, two energy balls sailed through the air and hit him, knocking the country Digimon back out of his seat.
Sora, Yolei, Hawkmon and Biyomon stood up in confusion from the sudden attack.
"Where did those come from?" the pink bird asked.
"Hey, guys!" two voices called.
Turning, Sora smiled brightly as she saw Davinia and Davis riding their partners over to them.
"You guys made it!" Sora said as the twin dragons and lion stopped in front of them.
Davinia and Davis chuckled as they jumped down off of Raidramon and Lighdramon and spotted the Control Spire ten yards away from them and tremble down meaning Digmon, Flamemon, and Cody had taken care of it.
"Yep…" Davis started
"And we're getting out of here." Davinia finished.
Biyomon Digivolve to… Birdramon!
Sora, Yolei and Hawkmon got up on the bird Digimon as they flew to find Cody and Digmon, picking them both up before they rejoined Lighdramon, Raidramon, Flamemon, Davis, and Ashlyn as they ran off to get to the TV that would bring them back home.
Deputymon grumbled as he stood up and gasped in horror as he saw the group making a quick getaway.
Deputymon: Come back! We still had a game to play!
Later…
After getting back to the Human World, everyone went over to Sora's house where Davinia helped her with cooking a meal of ramen with fresh vegetables and chicken while there were strawberry filled onigiri for dessert.
"Eat up." Sora said.
"Hope you enjoy." Davinia said with a small blush.
She wasn't used to cooking for people other than herself, Davis, and family so she was a little nervous to how the others would feel.
Gaomon started to eat with his chop sticks and hummed her approval, so the others started to eat too.
"Yummy!" Poromon said.
"Delicious!" Upamon cheered.
"This is very good." Cody said.
"Not bad." Yolei said.
Sora smiled as she saw Davinia blushing at the small amount of praise she received since she wasn't used to it.
Coughing to clear his throat, Davis then thought of something.
"Where are Kari and TK? I didn't see them with you guys." The male Hybrid said.
"We weren't able to find them or call them." Yolei explained.
"If they went somewhere, they would leave a note or something so we know how to reach them in times of danger." Cody said.
"That doesn't seem like them. Davey, Davis how did you two find us?" Sora asked.
"We were already in the Digital World." Davis explained.
"Why?" Upamon asked as Gaomon whipped at his mouth with his napkin.
"Training, because we got our flexibility from Mum so it doesn't affect you as much." The older twin stated.
"You mean those freaky rubber stretches were because of your mother?" Yolei asked.
"They did look a bit painful." Poromon winced.
"Oh, they were. When Davinia got better she taught me those stenches. I couldn't move at all the next day. It was worst that they forced me to keep it up so it wouldn't hurt as much." Davis sighed.
Sora shook her head in laughter before she pulled some strands of the wolf-girl's blonde hair out of her face to reveal those large sky blue eyes of hers.
Those sky-blue eyes always spoke her true feelings and the innocence she had in them that the Kamiya siblings tried hard to protect.
"That was the day Kari ran off to visit you." Cody blinked thinking back to it.
"How did you get sick so fast anyway?" Upamon asked.
"Why am I answering these questions? Shouldn't I be asking some stuff too?" Davinia asked.
"Why do you ask?" Yolei asked.
"It makes sense with all of the times I've rescued you guys and fought with you." Davinia stated.
The three seemed to pick up that this was her way of trying to get to know others to make her more comfortable so she would get into the idea of joining. Davis smiled at that, knowing his sister was trying to out of her shell. Harry would be very proud of her.
With that, the two second generations spoke nonstop as they told their future leaders about themselves, Yolei was doing most of the talking that the others and were sure that they could recite her life story.
Later, the twins walked back up to their apartment while Cody and Yolei walked back to their building.
Gaomon: Did you enjoy your time?
Davinia: Yeah, it was nice.
The twins made it to their apartment and opened the door to reveal their mom talking to some boy. Davinia and Davis' eyes widen at the boy, knowing them.
"Harry!" Davinia and Davis exclaimed, pouncing on their cousin.
The British Wizard, hugged them, greatly worry about what's been happening.
After that, the hung out together for the remainder of the day.
