Digital Powers Ch. 2-2: Arguments





Sora sat down on her suitcase, trying in vain to close it. She had packed everything she had needed already, but the stupid suitcase was just refusing to close. She seriously considered asking Mimi for her help, but the girl was having problems of her own. Mimi had shut her suitcase only to find that the latch was broken. At the moment, Mimi was tearing through her closet, trying to find another suitcase to put her stuff in. she gave up and looked at Sora.

"Do you need any help with that. Sora?"

"No I'm fine." Suddenly her suitcase flew open, scattering her clothes everywhere. Mimi tried to hold in the laughs as Sora scrambled to pick up her clothes.

"Still need the help?" Mimi stated in between giggles.

"Yeah, just a bit." Together Mimi and Sora tackled the impossible… closing Sora's suitcase.

Matt stared as Tai was rushing to put all of his stuff into his suitcase. "Tell me again why it seems that you have to pack everything at the last minute, Tai?"

"Just so I don't forget anything. Besides, I wanted to make sure that Kari had all of her stuff packed." Tai gave one last shove to the contents of his suitcase before glancing at Matt. "Ya never know what Kari could have left behind."

Matt rose an eyebrow. "Such as?"

"Umm, well, you never know. Besides, I wanted to talk to Kari about her finals. She said she had a rough time because all of the English the teacher used." Tai paused for a moment. "Heck, I had a rough time. They all use English."

Matt sighed. "At least it's over until next year."

Tai growled. "We both have at least two more years of this. I dinot think I can cope with it."

Matt looked at Tai's suitcase and stepped back. "Umm, Tai, I think you need to throw that pair of socks out."

"Why?" Tai asked, but before he could get an answer, the sock in his hand exploded. Tai winced. "Lemme guess, because of that."

Matt nodded. "Tai, you really need to control your temper. You never know when that could happen again."

Tai scowled at Matt. "I don't need to control it! I just need to learn how to control my power."

Matt looked at Tai. "You ever think that maybe your powers and your temper happened to be connected somehow?"

Tai slammed his suitcase down. "What do you mean?"

Matt shrugged. "Well, whenever you get mad or something, your powers flare up. I'm suprised that you didn't blow something up yesterday."

Tai glared at Matt. "I did not lose my temper because of that jerk!"

Matt glared back. "Yes you did! I saw the way you got mad because of that guy!"

Tai huffed. "Maybe you need your head examined. Your powers must be fucking up because I was not mad!"

Matt just shook his head. "Whatever you say, Tai."

Tai looked angry. "Just leave me alone, Matt."

"Fine by me." With that, Matt walked out of the room, leaving Tai to deal with his packing.

TK looked around the school, trying to find Izzy. He had stopped by the older boy's room to talk to him when he realized Izzy wasn't in there. He ran until he was out of breath, when he realized that somebody was inside Xavier's office. He pressed his ear against the door, trying to hear who it was.

"Are you sure about this? I mean, you have a lot of potential and we have been working on the problem..." Xavier's voice could be heard through the wood.

"Yes, I am very sure. I just don't know why, after all this time, everything still hasn't helped." TK blinked. Was that Izzy's voice he was hearing?

"This type of thing takes time."

"I'm sorry if I sound rude, but you've already took a lot of time with Scott, and it didn't help him." Was Izzy mad at Xavier?

"Koushiro, look, every mutant is different. If you tried harder and gave it more time..."

"I've been trying! Everything I've tried doesn't seem to work!" TK heard Izzy take a breath and in much quieter tones said, "Look, I just want to go back to my old school."

"Alright, if that is what you truly want." Xavier sounded exausted.

"Thank you. And also, I'm sorry it couldn't work out." TK jumped back with a start as he heard the door being opened. Izzy walked out, trying to hide the fact that he was crying. He looked at TK, and asked, "So, what did you hear?"

"Everything. Why do you want to leave the school?" TK asked.

"Nothing's helped me. If I am doomed to live out the rest of my life looking through these glasses, I want to live it where I belong."

"But you belong here!" TK stated, making Izzy smile slightly.

"Sometimes, I wish I had as much faith in myself as you do, TK." Izzy turned and walked away, leaving TK trying to decide what to say to his friend. He gave up and walked back to his room.

"You're certain you passed, Ken?" Ken looked up from the sandwich he was eating to look at Joe.

"Yes I am very sure I passed." He paused and looked at Joe. "Although I can't say the same about Davis. He failed his Algebra test."

"Well, you can't blame him. All of the teachers speak English, and only one or two speak any Japanese." Joe shrugged. "I bet the only one who did great was Mimi."

"That's because she speaks the language fluently. But she's not the only one that does."

"Don't tell me you're fluent too?" Joe sounded exasperated. Ken nodded. "Who else does?"

"Well, there's Izzy, Matt, TK, Davis, Yolei, Cody..." Ken started to tick names off on his fingers.

"Ok, so I guess I'm the only Digidestined who can't speak perfect English." Joe shook his head.

"I thought you learned it when we were with Creed." Ken gave him a sidelong glance.

Joe looked thoughtful for a second before answering. "No, I think I fell asleep duing those lessons."

"I think all of you wanted to fall asleep. I've been to one of Creed's classes and believe me, they were about as boring as a Bakemon telling me its life story." Ken looked to the side as Cody ran in the room. "Hi, Cody."

The young boy smiled at Ken and Joe. "Umm, Yolei wanted to know if you could help her open her trunk. She says the lock is jammed."

Ken nodded and stood. "Yeah, I'll help." Ken walked out of the room, waving to Joe as he left.

Joe then turned to Cody. "So, you can speak fluent English?"

The man stood near his car, knowing that his children were inside the grounds. He looked at his watch. They should be about to leave to catch their flight, he thought. He brushed a hand through his red hair. Well, he should be catching his flight too. Besides, there was only so much he could do while they were in the X-men's care.

He got into his car and started the engine. Besides, Koushiro and Sora should be happy when they find out their father was still alive. Koji Izumi drove away, thinking that they would be very happy.

To Be Continued...
