An Eventful Night
"I'm really glad you could come over." Henry said to Alice as they snuggled together on the couch in front of the t.v. while they watched the actor just barely escape being run through by the handsome but evil villain. It wasn't his type of movie but he figured he had a lot to make up for so he'd chosen a more girl oriented movie though thank God Alice wasn't the mushy type when choosing movies. His parents had taken his grandparents out for the night and so he had at least two more hours with Alice before they'd have to leave if they wanted to avoid his grandmother. Luckily he'd only had to cough up fifteen bucks to get Suzi and Ice to hang out in Suzi's room so that he and Alice could be alone. Thank God for that otherwise the chances of reconciling would have gone down hill at an amazing rate. So now they were cuddled up on his couch, in the dark with snacks and a reasonably good movie. He definitely wasn't complaining at the moment.
"So am I." Alice said as she leaned over and laid her head on his shoulder, glad that they were back together. She'd missed him even when she was mad at him. "And thanks for getting your grandmother out of the house first, I don't know if I could take one more question about my family tree or my stars."
"Well my mom promised to call when they're heading home, plenty of time for us to head out and get you home." Henry said as he leaned his head against hers, wrapping his arms around her waist. They sat there like that for a while as they watched the screen, both comfortable with the silence as they enjoyed simply being with each other.
"Hey Henry." Alice said after a few minutes and when they were facing face to face she leaned forward with a smile and kissed him gently on his lips. "This is much better then fighting." Alice said when she pulled away moments later, a grin on her face that grew as she laughed delightedly at the slightly dazed look in his beautiful eyes.
"On that we will always agree." Henry said with a smile as he leaned in and returned the kiss, pulling her tightly against him as they held each other close, eyes closed as they showed there love for each other in non verbal terms. And for a usually completely and perfect example of a gentleman Henry had very nice moves when he put them into play. Very nice moves.
"Figures." Ice said with a smirk, not really surprised to see her cousin making out with his girlfriend on the couch. Then again it was Henry so a part of her had figured that he was too much of a gentleman to put the moves on her with her and Suzi in the house. Guess he really had it bad if he was willing to risk her or Suzi walking in on them with such primo blackmail material. "Ah mine unlocking lips and keeping your hands to yourselves for a second here?" When that didn't go through she turned the lights on and repeated the order, finally getting their attention.
"This had better be important, Ice." Alice said with a slightly annoyed look as they drew apart while Henry's face went an interesting shade of pink. Thanks to his grandmother she and Henry had a lot of kissing to make up for and Ice's presence wasn't exactly appreciated at the moment. She liked the kid and all but this was not a time she particularly wanted to see her.
"Well it involves you but I suppose it could wait though it would give you more time to start coming up with ideas to make them pay if you saw it now." Ice said with a smirk as she shrugged at them, rather amused at the colour on her cousin's face. He was such a-well he was just Henry.
"Who is them and why do I want to make them pay?" Alice asked as she raised an eyebrow. Last time she checked no one had done anything to her lately besides those psycho digimon and Henry's grandmother and Alice really doubted that that was who Ice was referring to.
"The who's are Kazu and Kent and the why is in Suzi's room if you care to come view it." Ice said with a grin and Henry felt a twitch develope right under his eye. Oh God, she looked very close to actually smiling, whatever was up it was big and the consequences were going to be painful. "So are you two coming or are you going to go back to making out on the couch?"
"We were not making out." Henry said with a red flush spreading to his neck. "And lets see what it is your talking about." A minute later three things that had never occurred in anyone's memories. One Henry used just about every four letter word that had ever been spoken, Alice began to plot murder and Ice smiled happily as she watched the three of them become as blood thirsty as she was on a regular basis.
**Meanwhile in the Digital World**
You know I just got the strangest feeling that someone walked over my grave, man." Kazu said as he looked over at Kenta as the two walked through the grass, the night sky beautiful above them. They were having a camp out in the digital world and it was going great or at least it had until he'd had the strangest premonition of doom. He wished that their digimon were here but they'd gone off with Guilmon who'd wanted to show them something.
"Nope but maybe its foreshadowing of our deaths." Kenta said as he poked their fire with a stick, watching the flames dance and hiss at the shifting. "You know its only a matter of time before Rika finds out and kills us. You know I'm right."
"Quit worrying about it, Kenta. Even if she does find out there's absolutely no proof that we sold it to that guy. He did promise to never reveal who sold the pictures to him and even if he is crazy enough to think Rika is the Queen of the cards he won't give us away." Kazu said with more confidence then he was really feeling at the moment. He was beginning to think that maybe selling those pictures to that guy hadn't been one of his smarter ideas. Just the thought of what she and the other girls would do to him if they ever found out was damn near heart stopping. Especially if they dragged their boyfriends into the mix, then he was most definitely dead.
"Do you suppose that it will be a quick death or a really long and drawn out one?" Kenta asked as though he hadn't heard a word that Kazu had said. "I figure that if its Rika and Alice then it will be a slow and painful one but if they let the guys in on it then maybe it will be nice and quick. Maybe we should just confess, they might stop at serious maiming."
"Stop talking like that." Kazu said giving Kenta an exaggerated look of annoyance. "Everything will be fine, you'll see."
"You just keep believing that." Kenta said with a shake of his head then scrunched his face as something reached his ears that didn't sit right with him. Something was wrong here, he could feel it in his bones and it had nothing to do with the thought of what Rika would have in store for them when she got a hold of what they'd done. "Did you hear that?"
"Hear what?" Kazu said as he rolled his eyes. Kenta was such a baby about some things, probably thought the Boogeyman or something was here to get them.
"I'm telling you....that direction." Kenta said as he got to his feet then quickly walked towards the direction he'd pointed at. Something wasn't right and he knew it with a certainty that would surprise him later that they were about to be in a lot more trouble then he'd previous thought. "Oh damn." Kenta said as he made out three very large shapes coming towards them out of the darkness.
"Oh shit, run!" Kazu said as he saw what Kenta was pointing at. Maybe he wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed but ever instinct in his body was telling him to run and run fast. "Ii don't think they're here to roast marshmallows with us!" Agreeing with him completely Kenta joined Kazu in running like the demons of hell were after them. Unfortunately they could only run so fast and neither of them could be called athletes on their best days, much less when they were nearly frozen in terror.
They only managed to keep ahead of them for two minutes before the digimon kept up with them and Kazu gave a scream of pain as a fire ball hit him square in the back, sending him flying forward with his jacket on fire. Yelling Kenta rushed to his friend's side and practically tore the jacket from Kazu's back, hurling it in the digimon's direction before wrapping his arms around Kazu's waist, trying to help him to his feet. Lurching with his wait Kenta spun around with Kazu to stare at the three digimon who stood there, staring at them in the little light the moon provided. Here they were data and they could be deleted as easily as anything in the world.
"Run Kenta, leave me here." Kazu gasped out as he leaned heavily against Kenta, spots appearing in front of his eyes as he struggled to remain conscious. If figured that he'd die here after surviving the D-Reaper and Rika. Oh well this was going to probably be quicker then the death Rika would lay out for him. if they lived through this.
"I'm not leaving you here." Kenta said as he kept a firm grip on Kazu. "MarineAngemon, I need you!" Kenta yelled into the darkness, his voice the only sound except for the heavy breathing of the digimon who were simply watching them, waiting for them to make a move to run or to fight. "Guilmon, Guardromon, Renamon any mon! Help us!"
"You will be deleted." One of the digimon hissed and Kenta's eyes widened as the digimon beside the one that had spoken shot another fireball at them, causing him to push Kazu to one side while he leapt to the other to avoid the flaming ball of heat. God help them, they were going to die here.
"Leave us alone you jerks." Kazu said as he shakily got to his feet, weaving where he stood. Maybe they were going down but he wasn't some lame ass kid to go down without a fight. "Maybe I don't have my digimon here but you aren't deleting me and my best friend without a fight first. You hear me you oversized Rika wannabes!"
"Your statement is acceptable." A digimon that rather resembled a giant bat said as it flew into the air then dived at them, its fangs glistening as it prepared to attack.
"Oh boy!" Kenta yelled and felt his very short life pass before his eyes.
**At the University**
After leaning a nice little note in the guy's guest book about how she was going to sue his ass off for posting pictures of her without her express permission Rika got off the computer and went to find the others. Standing up Rika took several calming breaths as she mentally counted back from a hundred as she tried to forget that she wanted to massacre Kenta and Kazu. She was here to spend time with Ryo and that was precisely what she was going to do.
"Hey guys, sorry I took so long." Rika said with as nice a smile as she could manage then suddenly felt a sheering pain in her chest, doubling over in pain as her arms wrapped around her stomach, the room spinning as she stumbled forward.
"Rika." John yelled and Ryo repeated as the two rushed over, Ryo taking Rika's face between his hands as he stared into her face, stunned by the agony in it. "Oh God baby what's wrong. Rika what's wrong, what hurts?"
"Don't know." Rika gasped out as she tried to bring their faces into focus, aware of their voices and the sounds of the other coming into focus. Slowly the pain faded and Rika stared at Ryo in shock as she continued to feel slightly dizzy though she had no idea why. "I felt fine and then it was as if something burst into flames inside my chest. But now it only aches a little now. I can't explain-Renamon." Rika said, not knowing how she knew but she did. "It's Renamon's pain, I'm feeling what she's feeling."
"But how?" Ryo said as he stared at her then seeing how sure she was didn't even question it. Since they'd biomerged for that first time he and Cyberdramon could often anticipate each other's moves and feelings. Becoming one had given all the tamers and their digimon a connection that couldn't be described but was there none the less. "Let's go then." Ryo said firmly as he wrapped his arms around her waist, ignoring everyone else. "I'm sorry guys but I'm going to-to take Rika to the hospital, just to be on the safe side." Without waiting for them to agree or argue Ryo and Rika took off to the door and were out without even grabbing their jackets. Racing for the stairs the two went down a flight before Ryo stopped her. "Ready to go to the Digital World?"
"Ready when you are Pretty Boy." Rika said with a weak smile as she wrapped her arms around his neck as he took his D-Arc out of his pant pocket. Lifting the arc into the air Ryo called out for his digital portal. Engulfed in a pale blue light the two glowed for a moment then in a blink they were gone, on their way to the Digital World.
