"Waking up to a Surprise"

Here's the next instalment, hope you all enjoy it. Please review.

Daisuke's eyes blinked opened, adjusting to the lighting in the room she was resting in and saw that she wasn't in her room at home but in her boyfriend's room and had been sleeping in his bed.

She stretched out and then got out of bed, walking down to the kitchen to see if anyone was home and how long she had been out.

She walked into the kitchen and saw Tomoko was there cooking some curry for either lunch or dinner, the child of Strength wasn't sure what it was and saw that V-Mon and a black dino that looked like Agumon were both sitting down at the table talking.

The dino's snout twitched and he turned his head in Daisuke's direction and was happy to see the girl.

"Daisuke!" he said getting up.

V-Mon looked over and smiled brightly at her partner, Tomoko also turned to see the girl was up and she looked relieved as the two digimon ran over and hugged the girl around her knees since they couldn't reach any high than that.

"Whoa, easy there! What happened to KuroKoromon?" Daisuked as she bent down to hug the two.

"That would be me. I just digivolved today and started my training with V-Mon. I'm BlackAgumon now." Said the black dino as he looked at her with these pretty bright green eyes.

"Today? How long was I out for?" Daisuke asked curiously as she stood up with the two digimon in her arms.

"You were out for about three days now, dear." Tomoko said as she turned the stove off and came over to the girl.

"Three days?!" Daisuke yelped in shock.

"We were worried you weren't going to wake up." V-Mon said with a sad look.

"You really have been working for far too long. Your body was so drained out that it shut down do you could recuperate." Tomoko said.

"Oh, wow. So is the food done yet? I'm starved." Daisuke said with a smile, making the digimon and adult laugh.

Tomoko fixed up four plates and set them down on the table and set a glass of water down in front of the burgundy haired girl as she dug right into the food, happy to be able to eat properly after a while.

She was too concerned with the impending evil that was rising and training the others and making sure that they didn't kill each other had put a lot of stress on the girl and it made it hard for her to sleep and eat properly and her grades had slipped making her family and teachers worry over her, wondering what was wrong with her.

"Mom I'm home!" called out Koichi as he walked into the room.

He took his hat off and froze when he saw Daisuke sitting at the table eating.

"Hey, sweetie. How're things?" she asked with a smile as Tomoko laughed.

"Dai, you're up! Are you feeling any better?" Koichi asked running to his girlfriend's side, worry etched on his face as he knelt by her side and took her hands.

"I'm great. So how are the others doing? I know Yolei got her Crest. I felt it when it happened. The Crest of Humility is an interesting one." She said as she kissed his cheek.

Koichi smiled and stood up, then took his share of the meal and sat at the table.

"She did. In fact, she even made up with Zoe, everyone is getting along now. There are no more fights. Ken's been in charge of the training, but yesterday Tai and Takuya started helping him out with their own groups and it's all been running more smoothly after you yelled at everyone. Garurumon and Greymon reached their Ultimate forms today too." Koichi reported.

"Oh, thank God. I'm happy things are going better." Daisuke said.

"It is more relaxing. TK actually apologized to Ken and me for how he's been acting, but we both decided not to forgive him until you do." Koichi said as he ate him food.

Daisuke looked over to BlackAgumon and V-Mon and gave them a curious look when she saw how close they were sitting together and the sneaky glances the black dino threw her way, looking away with his cheeks turning red when the dragon looked at him.

She smirked at them, also remembering how BlackWarGreymon seemed to stare a lot at Lady V-Dramon.

Looks like those two would be the next pair to get together.

"So what are you going to do now, dear?" Tomoko asked Daisuke as she looked at her with those same sapphire eyes that her sons had gotten from her, as well as her navy hair.

"I guess I'll go back to the Digital World tomorrow-"

"No. You are not going to train. You still need to get some more rest." Koichi said sternly.

"I'm the leader of the Knights and I need to see how they're doing. I trust Ken's taking care of everything, but still." She said.

"She could go to just watch and see how everyone's doing." BlackAgumon said.

"Yeah and I'm sure everyone would be happy to see her feeling better. Tai, Matt and Kari were really worried. Well, everyone was, but those three more though." V-Mon said.

"It must be because of the kohai/sempai relationship that Taichi and Yamato feel that way." BlackAgumon said.

"Come on, Koichi. I'll just sit down and watch everyone else work and see how they do. And if they do start fighting again, then you and JP and take care of it. Use any force necessary." Daisuke said with a smile, her eyes begging him to comply with her wishes.

The Warrior of Darkness groaned and covered his eyes knowing that he totally lost this argument with his girlfriend.

"Fine." He sighed.

Daisuke clapped as she gave a joyful laugh before she hugged him and kissed his cheek, making his blush and smile at her.

Tomoko smiled at the cute scene and took a picture with her phone that she had in her pocket of them to use to tease her son later on.

"We'll go tomorrow if you really feel up to it. But only to the Digital World. You aren't going to the kendo studio. All right?" he asked.

"Sounds good to me." Daisuke said as she pulled away from her boyfriend.

"When are we going to the Digital World?" V-Mon asked.

"10:40 am, right after we finish kendo. I'll come back to get you three, OK?" Koichi asked.

"Now, no more talk of this. Let's just enjoy our meal, all right?" Tomoko said.

The digimon and Digidestinds agreed and went back to eating and just talked about random things.

The child of Strength couldn't wait to go back to the Digital World to surprise her friends and see how well they had been getting along since she was gone.

But also, deep down inside of her, she had a feeling that the trouble was going to start soon and just hoped that they were ready for it.
