their not I changed the fic from my original plan, but I promise that

Chapter 41: Making the Stops
Kris
"How long is this going to take?" Dan whined.
"We only took off five minutes ago," Armyleomon said.
"I'm just wondering."
"It'll take an extra minute for each time you ask that question," Armyleomon said.
"So where are we going first?" Jenn asked.
"Our first stop is going to be Brazil since it's the closest, I thought that we should split up for this mission a team of two each take a country."
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Will asked. "I mean we fight best as a team it might not be a good idea to split up."
"Don't worry, this isn't as serious a mission as all the others, we're not out to defeat some virtually unstoppable evil this time. All we're doing is helping a few lost Digimon find their way home, so we won't need the full force, and it would be much faster if we split up, and we need to do this fast the more time we give these Digimon in our world the more time we give them to get more confused and scared, and therefore more time for them to do damage."
"So basically you and Armyleomon will drop all of us off at three countries and you'll take the one we stop at?" Rob said.
"That's the basic idea," I said. "Who wants to take the first stop in the Brazilian rainforest?"
"The rainforest!" Sean yelled. "Me definitely! I've been interested in the rainforest since I was a little kid! I'd love to actually see it."
"I'm not sure about that," I said. "The rainforest can be a dangerous place especially -"
"Especially for what?" Sean yelled. "Just because I'm a little younger than the rest of you?"
"Six years younger," I said. "That's a pretty big difference."
"Kris, I'm Digidestined, you've never cared about my age before, besides aside from you and maybe Jenn I'm one of the strongest of the group, don't forget Tapirmon can Digivolve to Mega."
"I'll make sure he's okay," Tapirmon said. "I have so far, don't worry about it."
"Plus, he won't be alone," Rob said. "You need to send a team of four down there and Gotsumon and I can go with them."
"Okay," I said. "You've convinced me, and it's settled, for the first stop at Brazil Sean, Tapirmon, Rob and Gotsumon will go and take care of the Digimon down there."
There weren't any objections to my plan so we decided that's the way we were going to go about it, and we just sat comfortably as Armyleomon flew toward our first stop, Brazil. It was amazing how fast Armyleomon was moving, the ground was literately invisible, not because we were so high up but because we were so high up the ground was so blurred it was impossible to see. It looked like we were flying through space but still felt like we were zooming along on an airplane.
"Hey Kris?" Jenn said snapping me out of my train of thought. "Do you have anything to eat? As you know I skipped breakfast."
"Yeah," I answered. "I always keep an extra candy bar or Too in my backpack, it's not exactly healthy but it's food."
I pulled my backpack onto my lap and opened it out, pulling out my laptop, to search for the spare candy bars I always kept in it, but after I moved my laptop I noticed there were a few extra items in there. I pulled them out to discover that I had three extra laptops.
"Where'd you get those?" Jenn asked upon seeing the laptops.
"They just kind of appeared there," I said. "But I think I have an idea of who put them there."
I piled the three extra computers on my lap and placed my own laptop on top of them and popped it open, checking my e-mail immediately. I wasn't surprised to find out that I had new mail, three new pieces of mail to be exact.
The first two were just Spam I deleted them immediately; I really needed to upgrade my Junk mail filter. Next I clicked on the third message, which was from an unknown sender. Of course it was only unknown to the computer, I knew exactly who it was from.
The second the e-mail was opened a tiny animated Baihumon jumped across the screen.
"Since you're reading this I'm sure you noticed the extra items you've recently acquired, you'll probably all find yourselves in situations where you'll need a computer to send the Digimon back to the Digital World, and of course you only have one, so I've given you a small present, three new laptop AOL ready with satellite modem, three hundred free hours too. Just make sure you use them to open a Digiport and not play solitaire. Use them well Digidestined farewell." After that the animated tiger Digimon finished speaking it disappeared off the screen and the e-mail closed.
"Nice," Dan said lending over my seat from his own behind me. "Nice of the old kitty to give us these, so each team is going to get one right?"
"I guess," I said. "It's a good thing Baihumon gave them to us, I hadn't thought that the rest of you wouldn't have a computer to open a Digiport with."
"What I'm curious about is why he didn't just give them to us when he was here," Gizamon said.
"He's a mystical being," Emily said coldly from her seat as far away from the rest of us as possible, not even bothering to look in our direction. "They don't like to just do things simply. They prefer to creep you out by making them magically appear, like Evamon always did. Light or Dark mystical beings are all the same."
"What was that I heard?" Dan said. "Did the Digimon Empress just make a joke?"
"It wasn't a joke!" Emily yelled. "I was complaining."
"Sounded like a joke to me," Dan said.
"Shut up!" Emily yelled, she looked like she was about ready to get up and make Dan shut up.
"Will you two stop it!" Dan yelled. "Dan you know better than to annoy Emily like that, the rest of us can tolerate it but she's -" Rob froze as he noticed Emily staring daggers at him.
"Go ahead!" she yelled. "I'm what? Why do I deserve special treatment?"
Rob only stared for a moment as he tried to think of something to say. "I just better shut up before I dig myself in even deeper than I already am."
"Good answer." Emily said turning her head back to the window.
"Now not I've been reminded that she's here, what exactly are we going to do with her?" Dan asked.
"What do you mean what are we going to do with her?" I said. "She's part of the team she's going to join us."
"You are aware I can hear you!" Emily yelled.
"I didn't mean it like that," Dan said. "I mean we're going to four different locations, well originally with the eight Digimon and eight Digidestined we would send two Digidestined and two Digimon to each location, but with Emily and Blackgatomon here we've got an extra Digimon and Digidestined, which means there's going to be at one team of six. My question is who gets stuck with her?"
Emily shot Dan a death stare, which Dan being Dan easily ignored.
I don't think any of us expected anyone except Andrew to actually volunteer, which is why everyone was shocked as Rob stood up immediately after Dan stopped volunteered.
"She can come with us to Brazil."
"What?!" Sean Tapirmon and Gotsumon all yelled while everyone else stared at him in shock.
"Why would you want her to come with us?" Sean asked.
"Why not?" Rob asked. "Am I the only one aside from Kris who thinks she might actually have changed?"
There wasn't a word spoken not that anyone aside from myself wouldn't have instantly said 'yes' but they all saw the angry look on Emily's face and didn't want to say anything.
"Just give her a chance okay," Rob said. "Like Kris said no one liked the idea of Andrew joining originally and look how good that turned out, I think it's only fair that we give her the same chance. I know what she did was a lot worse than what Andrew did but she still deserves that second chance, and I don't know about you guys but I'm going to give her that second chance, and Emily, if you want to come to Brazil with us feel free."
"I don't see why not," she said not changing her cold bitter tone of voice. "It's not like anyone else is going to at least tolerate me aside from my brother, and it would be a nice change of pace to team up with someone besides him."
"Great," Rob said. "It's settled then, unless Gotsumon, Tapirmon or Sean have any objections."
They didn't, none that they said out loud anyway, I could tell by the looks on their faces that they weren't too happy about Emily coming with them, but even Sean the holder of the crest of Persistence was to afraid of Emily to say anything.
"We've come to stop number one," Armyleomon said as he began to descend towards the ground.
Armyleomon had found a small clearing within the rainforest, and landed in the center of it, luckily aside from a few animals it was deserted so no one saw a giant half lion half commercial airplane landing in the middle of the rainforest.
"Good luck guys," Armyleomon said as his dome slid open, and he extended his ramp.
"Make sure you're careful," I said. "It's dangerous in that rainforest, a lot of animals that want to make you lunch."
"Nothing we haven't dealt with before," Gotsumon said. "We'll be fine."
Everyone except Emily and Blackgatomon gave a wave goodbye as they walked down the ramp and walked into the rainforest.
As soon as they were out of sight Armyleomon retracted his ramp and closed his dome and began to fly again.
"Next stop Egypt." My Digimon said as his engines activated and we shot forward full speed.
There wasn't very much conversation between Brazil and Egypt, we flew for about the same amount of time we had on our way to Brazil.
"We're approaching Egypt," Armyleomon said. Out of curiosity who's getting off here?"
"Who wants to deal with the harsh hot Egyptian weather?" I said.
"I'll do it," Andrew said. "You live with my father for fourteen years and nothing seems harsh."
"I'll go with you," Will volunteered. "It would be more interesting to see the pyramids and the Sphinx than the Leaning Tower of Pisa or Big Ben."
"Alright," I said. "So Will, Dokunemon, Andrew and Demidevimon will take Egypt."
"And we're here," Armyleomon said beginning to descend.
The second his metallic paws hit the sand his dome slid open and he extended his ramp. We'd landed a couple miles away from a very large city and next to a highway leading into that city, I found out later that it was actually Cairo. We waved goodbye as Will, Andrew and their Digimon left like the others did, I was pretty surprised how Will was able to handle himself in the sand with his wheelchair like it was as smooth as pavement, I guess he was used to it.
Soon Armyleomon's ramp retracted and his dome closed.
"So where to next," Armyleomon asked.
"England," I answered.
"What?!" Dan yelled. "If we're going to England next, that means you and Jenn get Italy. Why do you get Italy?
""What's the difference?" I asked.
"I just want to go to Italy that's all."
"Well I'm the leader and I say that Jenn and I are going to Italy."
Both Jenn and Janine rolled their eyes. "Will you two grow up!" Janine said. "Dan and I will take England. Now will you stop fighting so we can go?"
"But-" I started.
"You heard her!" Jenn yelled. "Stop fighting and let's go."
"Armyleomon," I sighed. "You know what to do."
Armyleomon gave a quick nod hovered a bit into the air, right before boosting to full speed. We dropped Janine and Dan off in England, with some slight incident, we had to land within London, just at the foot of Big Ben, needless to say we weren't exactly inconspicuous, we scared a lot of people, fortunately aside from scaring a few people we'd managed to drop them off without incident, and took off back to Italy.
It was minutes after leaving England that we reached Italy.
Armyleomon hovered down landing in what looked like the town square, and like what had happened in England we scared a few people.
"Last stop Italy," Armyleomon said. "Everybody out."
Following my Digimon's instructions we climbed down his ramp, just as he became Elecmon again, no longer needing to be Armyleomon Commercial mode again.
"Here we are," I said. "Italy, it's time to get to work."
--------------------
Yeah I know I'm willing ot admit this isn't my best work, this was originally going to be a section of the next Chapter, but I decided to make it bigger and make it a plot development Chapter, I promise the World Tour Digidestined will show up in the next one, Crystal, Labramon, Angela, and Bluenamon, to be exact. Watch for it.
Stay tuned for Chapter 42: Mission One Italy
