Tamers: Stuck in Paradise - Season 2
Part 14
by Christian "Sid" Lang
Gatomon gasps and takes a look around.
God, I've run across the whole city! she realizes.
Then she passes out.
"I can't believe it!" Veemon yells in frustration.
He has been humiliated before. Sure.
But it had always been Davis' fault so far.
Veemon curses and slams his fist against the table.
He curses again when he sees the hole his fist has created.
That has gone too far. Beating me up must have been too simple for her.
His brain starts to reverse-engineer Gatomon's diabolical plan.
"She must have waited for this moment. But how did she know?"
He paces through Davis' room.
"Renamon! Of course! She probably spied on me the whole time!"
He angrily punches the wall and curses when he realizes that he just hit ferro-concrete.
This has gone too far. They will pay for it.
"But how?"
When she opens her eyes again, Gatomon is greeted by the bright daylight.
"Awwwwww..." she groans.
"It's about time."
Gatomon blinks and sees Renamon leaning against a tree.
She blinks again when she realizes that she is in the park.
Then she remembers the events of last night and groans again.
"Besides, I told you it was a dumb idea." Renamon mutters.
"You... know?" Gatomon wails.
"Of course. I stayed with you, hidden in my little realm."
Gatomon covers her eyes with one paw.
The worst humiliation of my life and there are witnesses.
"I couldn't know-" she protests.
"They didn't know it either. Still we hunted them across town."
The cat sighs in defeat.
"Uh, Veemon?" Davis asks when he sees his room.
He blinks. His Mom always told him his room is a mess, but this time it looks like a ruin.
Then he notices something blue move in a corner.
"Veemon? What happened? Are you all right?"
The Digimon looks up at him.
Davis is relieved when he cannot see wounds or blood.
Then he notices Veemon's eyes. All Davis can see in them is rage and hatred.
"They're going to pay! PAY!" the little Digimon suddenly yells.
"Renamon? Could you do me a huge favor?" Gatomon finally asks.
"Kill you in combat so that you don't have to live in shame?"
The cat gives the fox a stare of death.
"Please go to Veemon. Tell him I'm sorry." she finally begs.
"Why me? You busted in and saw... him." Renamon answers.
"Please." Gatomon begs and sobs.
Renamon sighs and strokes the cat's fur.
"I will pay him a visit." she finally promises.
Davis has left his room after Veemon had rammed his fist into the bed.
The dragon shakes his head in disgust.
"Veemon?" a female voice whispers, startling him.
He turns around and sees Renamon kneeling next to the desk.
Veemon gasps and walks towards the fox.
"You!" he hisses.
Renamon avoids eye contact and just sighs.
"Veemon, I came to-"
"DID YOU COME TO GLOAT?" Veemon yells, his rage being fueled by the Renamon's presence.
The vulpine Digimon blinks.
It's the last thing she does before Veemon's fist strikes her down.
The Digimon's head slams through a large drawer in the desk.
Then there is silence.
Veemon rubs his fist, thrilled and shocked when he realizes that he feels better.
Man, I knocked her out! The great Renamon! With one hit!
Then he realizes that the fight has not exactly been fair.
Still, her presence confirmed that she has been part of Gatomon's plan.
Nodding, Veemon leaves Davis' room.
Finally. Davis thinks when he sees Veemon exit his room.
Since his date with Ruki, he hasn't been able to change his clothes.
Now he sneaks into his room-
-and sees Renamon partially lying in his desk.
"What the-" he mutters.
"Geez, what happened?" he hears the Digimon's muffled voice coming from the drawer.
Renamon struggles briefly, then stops.
"And why am I surrounded by pictures of naked women?"
"What's taking her so long?" Gatomon asks herself.
Finally the fox appears at her side again.
Gatomon smiles and looks up at her love. Then her smile fades.
"What happened to your face?" she asks in alarm.
The fox's left eye is swollen, and her fur looks ruffled.
"I guess Veemon wasn't in his forgiving mood." Renamon mutters.
Then the golden Digimon stands up and walks to the pond.
Frowning, Gatomon follows her.
"Did Veemon do that?" she finally asks although she knows the answer.
Renamon nods. Then she flinches when she lets the cold water hit her face.
"Wow, you really know how to dance." Ruki praises Kari.
"Thanks." Kari replies and blushes.
"What about me?" Tai groans.
"Hm? Oh yeah. You were great, too." Ruki mutters.
Tai smirks and leaves when he senses that he isn't needed anymore.
Kari sits down on the couch and stretches her limbs.
They have had a quick meal for lunch half an hour ago.
For Kari, lunch has been an eternity ago.
"What's next, coach?" The DigiDestined asks with a smile.
Ruki sits down next to her.
"How about shopping? You need a nice dress."
"I have a nice dress." Kari protests.
"I'm talking about drop-dead-gorgeous here." Ruki says and grins.
"It's hopeless. You'll have to wait until he cools down."
"But I feel so guilty!" Gatomon sighs.
Renamon shrugs and looks at her refelction in the pond.
The swelling is not as big as before. Tomorrow it would be barely visible.
"Just wait a day. And then maybe call him." Renamon suggests.
"You're insane." Kari mutters when she steps out of the dressing-room.
Ruki simply smiles. The dress she had picked looks just as expected.
Not too exposing, but definately hinting.
The design is similar to Ruki's first dress, but this one is black.
And it also has a cut at the right leg that reaches almost to her hip.
"T.K. will drop dead when he sees you in this." Ruki whispers.
Kari finally giggles.
"But black?" she asks.
"The contrast is perfect." Ruki tells her.
Kari looks down at herself and frowns.
"Not that contrast. But you told me that you're the DigiDestined of Light."
Both girls smile sheepishly.
"Ohhhh... I love it!" Kari whispers, her hands stroking the fabric of the dress.
"Hello?" Hawkmon mumbles, suppressing a yawn.
Hawk? Vee here. Could I meet you somewhere?
"I don't know. What for?"
Please. Not over the phoneline.
"Very well. Then let's meet in the forest in the park."
"Oh, I almpost forgot one important detail." Ruki says.
The two girls are sitting on a bench in the mall they have been shopping in.
"Which detail?" Kari asks, looking at her friend.
"One kiss when you meet him, one kiss when you depart. Not more."
Kari blinks.
"You mean, we shouldn't kiss the entire evening?" she asks.
"Maybe once during the dance." Ruki admits.
Kari begins to realize what Ruki is hinting at.
"He'll go crazy with desire." she observes.
Ruki nods wildly.
"Who taught you these tactics?" Kari asks.
She gulps when she sees that Ruki suddenly looks sad.
"My mother told me." Ruki whispers.
"Geez, I'm sorry. Really, I-"
"No. It's all right." ruki mutters and holds up her hand.
Kari bites her lower lip.
"Let's talk about toying with T.K.'s mind again." Ruki suddenly suggests and smiles.
The DigiDestined returns the smile and places a hand on Ruki's shoulder.
"Geez, she really did that?" Hawkmon asks in disgust.
"Yeah. And Renamon helped her." Veemon mutters.
"So what are you going to do now?"
Veemon grins, making Hawkmon gulp.
"I've thought of a plan. But I'm going to need you help."
"Uh, buddy? Maybe you should just forget this." Hawkmon urges his friend.
"Don't worry. You don't have to do much. Here."
Hawkmon catches the slim stick and looks at it.
"What am I doing with that hollow stick?" the bird asks in confusion.
"It's a blow gun. I've got some tranq darts at home, too."
"How did you get tranq darts? And what do you need them for?"
Veemon shrugs. "Davis had'em. Don't know what for. But here's the plan."
And Veemon starts to tell his plan, unaware of the extra-pair of ears above him.
"Hello, T.K...." Kari purrs into the receiver.
She is lying on the couch feeling very comfortable.
Ruki is sitting next to her, grinning like mad.
"Would you like going out tonight?" the DigiDestined continues to purr.
The Tamer can imagine T.K. sweating at the other end of the line.
"Your finest clothing. We're going to dance."
Geez, I'd kill to watch them together this evening! Ruki thinks.
But she knows that Kari would have to do this alone.
"Makino at Kamiya's." Ruki answers the call.
Hello there, sweetheart.
Ruki smiles when she hears Davis' voice.
"Already dying to see me again?" Ruki teases him.
Well, considering that I have the apartment all for myself this evening...
The young Tamer giggles.
"Casual clothes?"
As casual as you like.
Ruki blushes after hearing that comment.
As much as she controlled his desires, he always managed to catch her off-guard.
Maybe that's the thrill of love. Ruki decides.
Could you be here at seven?
"You bet on it."
"Patamon, what are you doing there?" T.K. asks when he enters his room.
"Just practicing my new hobby."
"Your new hobby is shooting darts with a blowgun?"
"Trust me, it'll be worth the effort." Patamon replies cryptically.
