A/N- OK, I just want to say, so that Toei Animation wont come after me with a large mallet, (if no1 figured this out) I don't own digimon! Big surprise. If I did I'd be some millionaire who is married to Izzy and not writing some little fic. But anywho. Unless....anyone think Toei Animation will swap the rights to digimon for my left shoe? (Inside joke!) Didn't think so. Anywho, on with it!

Izzy leaned against a tree and sighed. 'Why do I always get stuck with the guard duty? I think I know what Tai has up his sleeve. Well, its not gonna happen!' he thought to himself. All of the sudden, he saw a giant boulder come flying twords him. "Ahhhhh!" he screamed. "By the mystic power of the zodiac," a voice said from behind him in a low chant. "I call upon the power of the Ox! Grant me immortal strength!" With that someone jumped out in front of him and hurled the boulder back at the thrower. Izzy glanced at his rescuer. He saw a small figure with a short ponytail standing in front of him. Izzy gasped when he recognized who it was. It was Jaya.
She was holding a small white tag with lettering on it. An ox was imprinted at the top. It was in a different language, so it was impossible to read what was on it. "What happened?" he asked. "It's a long story," Jaya said. "And its sorta a secret but now that you know I guess I wont leave you hanging." With that she reached into her pocket and pulled out eleven more tags with different lettering at the top and an animal. "A rat, a dragon, a horse...it's the zodiac!" Izzy said, looking at them. He then remembered that he also had something to tell Jaya. She was now in the middle of a story. "I've been studying with Sensei Hida for a while now. He's Cody's grandpa. But he's been teaching me these mystic spells, one for each sign of the zodiac." She continued about the powers of the tags. After she was done, neither of them spoke for a while. Finally, Izzy said, "Jaya?" "Hmmm?" "I kinda have something to tell you too." Jaya raised an eyebrow. "What?" she asked. "Well..." Izzy couldn't find the right words to use. "Wait, did you hear something?" "No." "Well, I did. One sec while I go and check it out," Izzy said. Then, as he was walking away he said under his breath, "I wouldn't want you to get hurt Jaya. I like you too much."
Izzy walked through the trees twords the sound that he had heard. There, he saw Tai, Matt, and Davis sitting in a circle. They were talking. "Hey, so did it work?" Davis asked. "I dunno," said Tai. "I think I'll go check again." "This time I'm going with you Tai!" Matt said. "So we don't have to spend hours looking for you in the forest. Again." "Fine," Tai said, and they headed off. Izzy shook with cold. "Hey Davis," he asked as he approached the campsite. "Can I use a blanket?" "Hey man! Its like totally icy out here ya know?" Davis said. Izzy muttered a few...choice words. 'I know! I'll speak in Davish to get my point across!' he thought. "Yo, dude! You'll never guess what's happened, man! Jaya and I are gonna spend the night outside. Know what I'm sayin'? So could I cop a blanket? I don't want my baby to get all frosty when we get our fires BURNING! C'mon, help a fellah score here!" (A/N- No, nothing bad will happen ^_^;) "Woah! Izzy, way to go dude! Ya promise to fill me in on it in the AM?" Davis said, digging around for a blanket and tossing it to him. "You got it bro!" Izzy said, before disembarking. 'Wow, talk about tough! Glad I don't talk like that every day!' he thought as he walked away.
As he walked, he crashed into Tai and Matt. "Oh, hi Izzy," Tai said. "Hey," he said back. "Oh yeah, its your turn now Matt. Since Tai's sooooooooo sick," Izzy said, shooting Tai a dirty look. "Oh, and Tai? Take this," he said as he shoved the blanket at him. "You're gonna need this if you wanna shake that cold!" Without another word, he walked off leaving Tai and Matt to their own sources.
Seeing Jaya back at the tree, he took a deep breath and walked over to her.
