No More Dragons to Slay


"I don't beleive it" Tai said. It's been ages since he's seen his beloved. Why now? Actually, shouldn't this be a good idea? Tai shoke his head and took a glance at his clock. He turned back to Sora who now held out her hand to Tai.
"Why Sora.... it's a blasted 1:25 in the morning!" Tai said. Armadillomon and Agumon shoke themselves off. Sora looked at them and waved.
"Hi guys." The two digimon jumped in fear!
"H-h-h-h-h-i Sora!" stammered Agumon. She smiled.
"Looks like you two have seen a ghost"
"SEEN? WE ARE SEEING! RUN AGUMON!" Armadillomon shouted. The two digimon fled into the kitchen in a rustle and bustle. Sora turned back to Tai, whom was laying on his bed.
"I don't beleive it's really you...... I missed you Sora."
"I did too Tai. And don't ask about how I turned from a glorious leaf to a glamorious lady in your bedroom." Tai laughed.
"That's quite a silly question dear. Have a look around. Mind if I do, I'm going back to sleep.... oh wait! What about y-"
"I'm not that tired Tai... really."
"You sure? You can use my bed."
"What about you?" Tai shrugged, he had no idea.
"Um, I was planning on making a couch... eh heh... but uh. I'll stay up."
"Well, no, that's fine, get some rest, tell me in the morning." Tai laid back down into his bed and fell asleep. Sora smiled and quickly took the glass pieces and put them outside of his house in the back. After doing so, Sora calmed down the two scared-to-death digimon. She then went inside and fell asleep on the kitchen chairs.

BRING! BRING! Tai groaned as he slowly tried to reach for his alarm clock. His hands scurried about on the desk... metal plate, no... uh, candle, no....... aw, SLAM!!!! Tai sat up in bed and tried to scruff down his huge hair. He stood up and sighed. To HIS surprise, the glass from yesterday nights incedent was cleaned, but no window.
"Ba..... New window... and a bed too for Sora.... but I ain't got no cotton left... or maybe a bit... oh well. Scavange time I guess." Tai quickly yelled into the kitchen to prevent anything bad.....
"SORA! I'M CHANGING SO DONT BOTHER TO COME IN RIGHT NOW!" he quickly lifted off his shirt and his pants and tossed em onto the end of the bed. He took a t-shirt and pair of jeans from underneath his bed and started to put on the jeans.
"Well Mr.Kamiya?" Tai looked back to see Sora at the entrance of the room smiling. Tai gave her a oh-honey... look.
"You naughty dog you.."
"I know..... I cleaned up the glass for you form yesterday.... and I hope you repay me back with a nice new bed tonight." Tai shrugged.
"I'll try. If not, you can sleep in my bed. Or we could-"
"Don't go there."
"Hee... okay, I guess your too young to be in the same small cot with me." Tai quickly put on the rest of his clothing and followed Sora into the kitchen. Tai nearly fainted from what he saw. A fresh breakfast of waffles with apple slices on top. He could smell the brilliant fresh smell from where he was. YUMMY! He even noticed Sora tried to unbend the cutlery....
He quickly slid his arm around Sora's as he guided her to the kitchen table. Tai slid out a chair and seated her while he went to another chair.
"Oh yeah? Pepper Breath!...... Pwa!...... ha! See I beat ya easily!" Agumon said as he walked into the shack. Armadillomon turned his head the other way closing his eyes.
"Well Agumon, I can easily defeat that.... after a good old hearty meal of Sora's... UM! I bet it's gonna be better than Tai's!" Sora giggled as she ate. Tai grabbed a plate and put it on the floor for Armadillomn, who jumped over and started eating. Agumon grabbed his seat and ate away.
During breakfast. Tai told Sora of all the wonders of what he's seen, the horrible, the scavanges, what he did to build this place, and his boringness. He lived near a seaside, so he often sat there and listened to the calm waves. Sora stood up and grabbed the plates that were done and looked around for the sink. Tai tapped her shoulder gently.
"Sora dearest, the sink is actualy a river, about a 5 minute walk from here. I'll show you if you want." Sora shoke her head.
"No, that's fine, I'll send those two Digimon to do it.... I suspect they haven't done much housework." Tai blushed.
"Well, I am one of those people who do tend to spoil kids..... even if they aren't my kids, or the fact that they aren't even human. But Sora, I'm going to a town to the east,wanna come? It's about a 15 minute walk from here. There I can scavange up some stuff for us. I just have to grab my jacket and that knpasack I found." Sora hugged Tai and smiled.
"Sure, just hurry up, AGUMON! ARMADILLOMON!" the two digimon appeared before her. She handed them the plates and told them their orders. They saluted and run off to clean the plates for breakfast tomorrow. She stood outside on the beach waiting for Tai to come. Out, she at last saw him step out. Tai waved to her.
"Come on sweetie! We musn't waste time or your bed tonight won't exist!" Sora quickly got up and brushed the sand off her skin as she ran to catch up with Tai.


As they approached the city, Tai quickly went in front of her. Before them was a tall black fence, the gate to the city. Sora looked up and was shocked.
"How will we get by?" Stupid question. Tai was already climbing the fence with ease. Slowly, he got over to the other side and was talking to Sora. Before he spoke a word. Sora was climbing.
"Slowly Sora! Slow and partially steadiness wins the race!"
"What race?"
"How should I know?"

Inside the city, they spent a good 1 1/2 hours searching for items. Tai found some even better cotton than he had used for his bed, a long sleeved sweater, a bandaid box, another crate of wood, and a quilt. Sora found a seashell, a can of orange paint, a journal with half the pages burnt or ripped, a hammer, a box of nails(dented and rusted) and a red bandana. After their scavange, they hurried home.

There, Tai was outside, building a cot for Sora to sleep in. He used the wood and made a stable ottom. He found an old fishing net from inside a cabinet and put it on top. Then placed the cotton on top of the fishing net and secured the cot with half of the quilt. The rest of the quilt was Sora's blanket. The digimon helped Tai put the cot into the house. But they didn't know where to place it. Meanwhile, Sora used the crate of wood to make herself her own picture frame. She then placed it on the ground while Tai and the digimon moved the bed right beside Tai's door, in the kitchen. She placed her picture frame on the counter behind her bed. Tai wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Sora.
"Well, go ahead and try it. I didn't waste 2 hours of building I hope." Sora climbed into bed and snuggled in. Agumon crept over.
"Well?" asked Armadillomon. Sora sat up and accidently made Agumon fall over.
"Sorry Agumon... It's great Tai! I love it! Thanks." Tai blushed.
"Your welcome.. Well, you guys empty that knapsack, I gotta go take a shower or bath or whatever. I think I stink like crap don't I?" Armadillomon nodded. Tai headed into the bathroom and slammed the toilet seat. "Figures.... those Armadillo's never lie either."


Seems boring right now, but just wait, in the next few parts will be suspension! Oh, I can't wait,.... I think you guys can though. R&R Please. Thanks!
