Episode 2: Return
Mya
I awake with a killer headache.
"Damn." I mutter, "What a headache." I see all the other kids sitting up around a campfire. It seems to be early morning, but I can't tell. For all I know it could be midnight with this headache. We're in some sort of deserted forest, a petrified one if you will. It seems all gray, but it's too dark to see much beyond the campfire. The grass under me, though, is mighty green. Matt sits to my right and Daggdramon lies to my left. Hey, where's my bag?
"You're up sleepyhead." Matt whispers to me. I yawn 'cause I feel really wiped out.
"Why don't you have a headache?" I ask 'cause he looks fine…in both ways. Hee hee.
"After doing that three times, you get used to it." He replies. Daggdramon roles over turning her sleeping head away from the light. Tai is talking about something, but I don't get it.
"Matt," I ask, "Do you know where my bag is and what the hell is Tai rambling about?"
"No, and I have no idea. I tried to not to pay attention." I chuckle drawing the attention of many to me.
"So, she's up." Tai says looking at me. I sit my head up onto my hands and kick my feet up into the air. I wave at him and smile then return to leaning.
"We've been talking about how to spend tomorrow." Sora informs me.
"Oh?" I say, "What have you decided on?"
"Well…" Sora starts.
"Absolutely nothing." Joe adds.
"Everyone's arguing too much." Kari says to me.
"If we all listen to me, then maybe something will happen." Tai says. Mimi sucks her teeth and Tai starts talking again. I drown him out and continue talking to Matt.
"Is he all ways like this?" I ask Matt.
"Unfortunately." He answers.
"I don't get how you made it."
"Neither do I. Maybe because I left once." I smile, he usually has something witty to say.
"I think that I won't make it." I groan. He smiles, I know Tai is his friend, though they do argue a lot from what I've heard, but he does talk a whole lot.
"Don't worry, he'll shut up soon."
"It's not that I'm worried, it's just that my headache is getting worse." I grab my head and lie down. He pats my head three times then slouches. Daggdramon stirs one more time, this time her eye's flinch then she rolls again. I yawn once again and close my eyes.
"Who long till we go to sleep?" I ask.
"Not much longer, Kari and T.K are all ready asleep." I open my eyes to look to the right of Matt. I see T.K. and Kari fast asleep, Kari leaning her head on T.K.'s arm while both of them lie on the floor.
"That is so cute." I coo quietly. I return to lying on the floor and close my eyes again. I fold my hands and lay my head on it. Matt lies down and turns toward me.
"Goodnight Mya." He says and closes his eyes.
"Goodnight Matt." I say and start to sleep. The faint sounds of arguing and talking fade out and darkness consumes my mind. Man, I have never been this tired before. I mean, I stay up past midnight all the time. Maybe it's jet lag. To bad, I really want to know what is going to happen tomorrow. Maybe I'll see Daggdramon digi-volve, she said she did it before, but I've never seen it. I've never been in enough danger for her to do it. Oh well. Matt says that he left the group before, I wonder what that is all about. I'll ask tomorrow. My mind goes into stasis and I have no idea what's happening now.
***
"Mya, Mya, come on get up." I hear a voice say. My eyes quiver and open to a pair of blue eyes surrounded by peach skin, yellow hair, and sunlight.
"Mommy?" I whisper and hear a laugh.
"No silly, It's me." The voice says. The person backs away and I see that it's Matt. I sit up and stretch. Matt is sitting next to me eating an apple from somewhere. I notice that we are the only ones still sitting around the dead fire.
"Where is everyone?" I ask.
"They're out looking for signs of where we are. I volunteered to watch you." He replies.
"Oh."
"So, how was your sleep?"
"Fine. I slept like a baby." We both smile and he keeps eating. "So, what is this about you leaving?"
"Oh that. Well, one day Tai and I had a fight and I felt that I needed some time alone, so I left."
"Interesting."
"Yeah, but I'm glad I came back." I smile, he's so sweet.
"Anyway, what did you all decide to do today?"
"Nothing really, find out where we are mostly. Personally, I think were back on Server, we might be on File Island."
"Keep in mind I have no idea what the places are."
"Oh, just places in the digi-world." By now Matt's done eating the apple.
"They are taking a long time." I say and turn to him. He looks strait ahead then at me.
"Yeah, they are."
"Wonder what's taking so long."
"Me, too." I rub my neck. I'm running out of things to say to keep my mind of thinking about doing something really stupid. A song comes to mind, so I start to sing in my mind. But oh no I can't let you get the best me. Even though deep inside, something's,
"Dyeing to see how you flow out them clothes when you put it on me(Put it on me) feelings coming on strong, I know that is wrong, no I can't let you get the best of me!" I sing.
"What?"
"Huh, what..oh me? That was aloud? Oh, nothing."
I swallow and look toward the ground. "Mya, " he says.
"Yes?"
"Do you feel awkward, I mean being in a strangle place, alone with a boy you haven't seen in a long time?"
"Slightly." I say. Man what a lie! Of course I feel awkward! I have all these feeling for the boy, now I'm alone with him in a strange place with no signs of people! It's obvious I like him a lot.
"It's OK." He says.
"Listen," I say, "I'm about to do something really dumb and your involved."
"What?"
"This." I lean over to him and kiss him square on his lips. I see his eyes open wide as mine close. There is a jump-start in my chest and a tingle runs through my body. I sit there for a little bit then hug him around the middle. I bet you he's saying I saw this coming in his mind because that is what I'm saying. I guess it wasn't that stupid after all! I'm having some fun. I hear the rustling of feet in the distance and a small gasp. Could they have picked a worse time?! Then we stop and I look up to see Sora with a startled face.
"Matt?! Mya?!" She says. I smile devilishly and turn to Matt. He seems very star struck and lost.
"Yes Sora." I say.
"That was…so…CUTE!" She says. She runs over to me and hugs me. "Do it again."
"Uh, Sora, can you let me go now?" I ask.
"OK." She says and releases me with a big smile on her face.
"Uh, sorry you had to see that." Matt says and returns his face to normal. So do I.
"Oh, it's OK. I'm happy for you two." She says.
"Don't tell anyone, people will get upset." I say and she nods in confirmation. Just then, who would appear out of the forest, but Tai and the others.
I hear a big yawn. "YAWN." I turn my head and see Daggdramon awakening slowly. Oo, I forgot she was there. Then Gabumon yawns too. I forgot he was here too.
"So, what have you all been up to?" Tai asks.
"Nothing!" We both blurt out at the same time.
"Oh, geeze, you'd think you all were kissing or something." He says with an odd look on his face.
"Yeah, he he he, non-of that…" Matt starts. WHAM! I pop him in the back of the head and smile a huge smile. He sits there massaging the back of his head as Sora starts talking to the others.
"So, where are we?"
"Back on Spiral Mountain." Izzy says disappointed.
"How unfortunate," I say shaking my head, "but just why are we so unhappy?"
"This is where Piedmon's layer is and if he finds us, were gonna have to fight." T.K. says.
"OH." I say and nod.
"I won't mind a good fight." Daggdramon says and raises her fist to the sky.
"Yeah, we need a fight!" Agumon says and all the other digimon chime in with cheers.
"Oh, isn't that so cute, the pip-squeaks want a battle." A mysterious crackled voice says up above us. We all gasp and turn our heads to the sky. There, above us, flies Ladydoomamon. She is a tall pale woman with long wild brown straw hair. She wares red lipstick to overdraw her blood red eyes. She has a long flowing, black gown, which is torn at the bottom. She has long gray nails tipped with the bloodstains of her past victims.
"I-I-I-Izzy, who's that?" Sora asks.
"Let me see," he says as he opens up his computer, "That's Ladydoomamon, a close personal friend of Piedmon. She thinks she's beautiful and will kill anyone who messes up her face."
"Eww! Look at those hideous nails! When did you last get them done!?" Mimi yells.
"You like my nails girls?" She howls the questions at us, "Boys, your blood is next, YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHGRRRRRRRRRRRR!" She charges from the sky spiraling down like a twisted bomb.
"PEPPER BREATH…PA." Agumon shot the attack at Ladydoomamon. She stops spinning and floats in the air.
"Is that the best you can do? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Death from above!!" She screeches like a banshee and makes one wave movement with her arms. Suddenly, thousands and thousands of meteorites rain from the sky and we all run for cover.
"Let's show this hag what we're made of!" Byiomon yells and out of nowhere bright lights rain down on 8 of the digimon. Daggdramon has no lights.
"Agumon warp digi-volve to…Wargraymon!"
"Gabumon warp digi-volve to…METALGARURUMON!"
"Patamon digi-volve to…ANGEMON!"
"Tentomon digi-volve to…KABUTERIMON!"
"Gomamon digi-volve to…IKKAKUMON!"
"Byiomon digi-volve to…BIRDRAMON!"
"Palmon digi-volve to…TOGEMON!"
"Gatomon digi-volve to…ANGEWOMON." Then the digimon start to really attack.
TERRAFORCE and so on. Lights flicker on and off in the sky as the digimon clash. Everyone gets so excited but me. I walk over to Daggdramon, who is lying on the floor, to see what is wrong.
"Why aren't you digi-volveing?" I ask.
"ZzZzZzZzZ…" She replies. I shake her vigorously till her eyes pop open.
"Why are you asleep while we are in battle!?"
"We're in battle? Oh! Tehe!" A bright rainbow of color shot down from the sky on to Daggdramon. I jump back from the light so I won't get hurt. She acts really dumb sometimes.
"Daggdramon digi-volve to…SWORDDRAMON!" A large cat like creature stands in front of me. It's at least 8 feet tall. It still has Daggdramon's friendly face, but wares an aqua genie headdress with its ears sticking out. She wares a transparent aqua cloth over her mouth so you can see her short, stubby, but sharp fangs hanging out its mouth. She has the body of a human with a traditional genie outfit with the transparent aqua cloth over her stomach. She wears no shoes, but he gray cat-like feet served the same propose. Her hands stay the same but hold gigantic swords.
"Ready to fight!" She says in a noble female voice and leaps into battle.
"Go Sworddramon!" I yell at the top of my lungs while leaping up and down. I join the rest of the kids cheering on the digimon. Out of the blue, Kabuterimon falls out of the sky followed by the all the rest, all the rest but Sworddramon.
"Your feeble attempts will be denied!" Ladydoomamon screeches at Sworddramon.
"Prepare to die, witch!" Sworddramon hollers back preparing her swords to strike. (Personally, I think she meant witch with a b, but that's just me.) She crouches preparing to leap.
"This will be too easy. Fine peasant, since you don't fly, I will lower my self to your standards." Ladydoomamon coaxes.
"I don't need pity from you." She says and leaps into the air, "Sword Tornado!" She spins herself violently on the air so that even we are lifting of our feet. I grab Kari, who is right next to me to hold onto her. Sworddramon sticks her arms out of what appears to be a large, black, well, tornado. She spins at Ladydoomamon with violent speed and power, and her dress starts to ripple.
"Ha! Child's play. Doom's Day!" Ladydoomamon says and trusts her arms toward the floor. A dark cloud forms over Sworddramon and a black thunderbolt bolt strikes the dust devil. It bounces off and strikes Ladydoomamon in the face.
"Ugh! Struck by my own attack!" A large welt appears on her face.
"Too bad!" The cloud says as the swords slice Ladydoomamon in the stomach. Sworddramon stops spinning and falls to the ground with a perfect landing. Her dark hair still waves from the spinning motion. Ladydoomamon is clutching her stomach as she looks at Sworddramon and falls to the ground.
"HARPOON TORPEDO!" Ikkakumon yells as he launches the attack and hits Ladydoomamon in the head.
"AHHHHHHHG!" She screams and clasps her hands to her head. In her stomach is a deep, pulsating laceration that has a slow river of blood coming out of it.
"Who's laughing now?" Metalgarurumon asks as he launches Ice wolf claw and Ladydoomamon. She freezes over, but it slowly starts to crack open. Short after, it bursts open, Ladydoomamon standing there, hands at her side. Her dress now stained with a thick blue liquid.
"What is that stuff!?" I ask terrified.
"I don't know." Izzy says shocked at the horrific monster. The blood from her stomach was now running down her dress as the spot on the head grew a bump that beat like a heart. The burnt spot on her check has crusted over and her eyes were blood shot and angry. Mimi nearly faints, but Joe caught her and fans her with his hands till her eyes open. I would faint but I'm too scared.
"Look…what…you did…to my pretty…face!" She screams at us. She turns to Sworddramon and starts to dart for her.
"You won't hurt her!" Metalgarurumon roars and runs in front of Sworddramon, "METAL WOLF CLAW!" He fires the attack at Ladydoomamon who stops in her tracks and falls, kneeling, to the ground. Then, she manages to tell us something before dying.
"Piedmon will kill you…for…killing…his…wife!" She falls to her face and disappears into the cloud of mist. I shiver as if a cold, brisk wind and just blown. Sworddramon turns back in to Daggdramon and falls, kneeling, to the floor. All the other digimon return to rookie stage and go to congratulate Daggdramon.
"Good job!" Gomamon says patting her on the back. She smiles a small smile and looks at Gabumon who is sitting a stone throw away. He smiles back and walks over to her to just help her stand up. She places her arm over his neck as support and walks over to Matt who happens to be standing next to me.
"Now," She whispers, "You've seen me digi-volve." I smile at her, what else can I do? Matt leaves to go talk to Gabumon. The rest of the group starts walking, Matt too, but I first pick up Daggdramon and throw her on my back like a backpack. I run to catch up with the group as she nods off on my shoulder.
***
For a while we were walking in the forest, like when the battle happened, but now we're in a cave. Only lord really knows how we got in here or why we followed Tai in here, but we're here. Oh, this is the order we're in, walking of course. Tai and Matt are walking up front, Sora and I walk next, not quite in a line. T.K was a few steps behind Kari, who was a few steps behind me. Joe, Izzy, and Mimi brought up the rear. It's really dark in here, but the high ceiling allows some light to shine in. (While we were walking, I grabbed a torch of the wall, only god knows where it came from.) The cave is really old, it seems that anyway. The stalactites are really long and slightly withered.
We walk and walk for a long time with no conversation, so I decide to talk.
"So, how is everyone?" I ask.
"My feet hurt," Mimi exclaims, "How long have we been walking?"
"One more minute since the last time you asked."
"Izzy, you keep track of these things?"
"Yeah, Tai, it's what I do."
"Well, that's nice to know." I utter.
"It's getting cold in here." Kari mumbles as she runs a little to catch up to me.
"Here, take this, you need it more then me." I hand her the torch.
"Thanks Mya! That's real nice of you," She says with a delightful, big smile on her face, "I'm feeling warmer already!" Not far behind, T.K. is walking up to Kari to share in the warmth. She slows down so he can hold on, too. Not only is she sweet, she shares! Up front, Tai and Matt stop walking and the rest of us stop eventually.
"What's the hold up?" Joe asks.
"It's looks like a bad guy lair if I ever saw one." Tai says with the slight quiver of fear in his voice.
"P-P-Piedmon's lair." T.K. stammers and I swallow hard. They've told we about this Piedmon fellow, not a happy camper, especially since we killed his wife.
"I'll go get him!" Tai starts to march forward.
"No, I'll go with you." Matt says calmly.
"Look, I'm the leader, so I go first." He gives a small wink to Sora who smiles but looks to the floor. There's something going on I don't know about. I wrinkle my nose and look at Sora, who still is looking at the floor. I un-wrinkle my nose and return to the argument.
"Look, if your trying to impress somebody, it ain't working." Matt argues.
"Oh yeah?! Look, it's my decision!"
"Who died and left you president!?"
"It was always this way!"
"You wanna take this elsewhere!?"
"Come on, let's do this, loser!" Matt raises his fist to Tai and takes a good swing and pops him in the side of his jaw. Tai cringes a little but rejuvenates quickly and knocks Matt to the ground. The boys start to wrestle till they hit the floor. I can't take it anymore!
"STOP!" They all turn and look at me, fists in mid swing. I walk over to them and place my hands on my hips. "You stop acting like little children."
"But Matt started it!"
"Nu uh!"
"Yes, you did!"
"Stop it right now!" I yell.
"Now what? You're the leader?" That's it, fighting words. I raise my hand and slap Tai right across his smart mouth.
"OW!" Tai says grabbing at his cheek.
"Don't you ever get smart with me!"
"Yeah Mya! You go gir…"
"As for you, you know better than that! You're not 7!"
"That's right!" Mimi yells in admiration. Tai and Matt stand up, look to the floor and dig their feet in the dirt.
"Now, you two, we've got a Piedmon to beat!" I march ahead of the group, eyes on Daggdramon and me, her at my side. Who's the leader now!? Oh, that would get Tai so pissed of! They follow me as I march up to the Piedmon's door and knock ferociously. I must be high.
"WHO DARE KNOCK ON MY DOOR!?" an evil, rotten, menacing voice says. Kari drops the torch on the floor, but Sora quickly picks it up so no one catches fire.
"I-I-I-Matt, help." I squeak and shiver. I run back to the group and speak up. "We're the D-D-Digi-destine, and we're here to take you out Piedmon!"
"Brave words for such a small voice!" The voice says shrilly. The black door opens with a large squeak and in the doorway stands Piedmon. He's not that scary.
"We're not afraid of you!" Matt yells, I guess trying to impress me after what he did.
"Speak for yourself!" T.K. wails.
"Ah, I have not seen you before! You shall go first!" He trusts an ugly finger in my face and I snap at it. Why am I being brave?
"Feisty, I like feisty. My wife was feisty, but she is dead, like you will be." I walk back into Matt, but Piedmon grabs my arm and raises me into the air! Matt grabs my leg, but Piedmon takes him up too!
"Now, my children, you will DIE!"

"Palmon digi-volve to…TOGEMON!"
"Gatomon digi-volve to…ANGEWOMON." Then the digimon start to really attack.
TERRAFORCE and so on. Lights flicker on and off in the sky as the digimon clash. Everyone gets so excited but me. I walk over to Daggdramon, who is lying on the floor, to see what is wrong.
"Why aren't you digi-volveing?" I ask.
"ZzZzZzZzZ…" She replies. I shake her vigorously till her eyes pop open.
"Why are you asleep while we are in battle!?"
"We're in battle? Oh! Tehe!" A bright rainbow of color shot down from the sky on to Daggdramon. I jump back from the light so I won't get hurt. She acts really dumb sometimes.
"Daggdramon digi-volve to…SWORDDRAMON!" A large cat like creature stands in front of me. It's at least 8 feet tall. It still has Daggdramon's friendly face, but wares an aqua genie headdress with its ears sticking out. She wares a transparent aqua cloth over her mouth so you can see her short, stubby, but sharp fangs hanging out its mouth. She has the body of a human with a traditional genie outfit with the transparent aqua cloth over her stomach. She wears no shoes, but he gray cat-like feet served the same propose. Her hands stay the same but hold gigantic swords.
"Ready to fight!" She says in a noble female voice and leaps into battle.
"Go Sworddramon!" I yell at the top of my lungs while leaping up and down. I join the rest of the kids cheering on the digimon. Out of the blue, Kabuterimon falls out of the sky followed by the all the rest, all the rest but Sworddramon.
"Your feeble attempts will be denied!" Ladydoomamon screeches at Sworddramon.
"Prepare to die, witch!" Sworddramon hollers back preparing her swords to strike. (Personally, I think she meant witch with a b, but that's just me.) She crouches preparing to leap.
"This will be too easy. Fine peasant, since you don't fly, I will lower my self to your standards." Ladydoomamon coaxes.
"I don't need pity from you." She says and leaps into the air, "Sword Tornado!" She spins herself violently on the air so that even we are lifting of our feet. I grab Kari, who is right next to me to hold onto her. Sworddramon sticks her arms out of what appears to be a large, black, well, tornado. She spins at Ladydoomamon with violent speed and power, and her dress starts to ripple.
"Ha! Child's play. Doom's Day!" Ladydoomamon says and trusts her arms toward the floor. A dark cloud forms over Sworddramon and a black thunderbolt bolt strikes the dust devil. It bounces off and strikes Ladydoomamon in the face.
"Ugh! Struck by my own attack!" A large welt appears on her face.
"Too bad!" The cloud says as the swords slice Ladydoomamon in the stomach. Sworddramon stops spinning and falls to the ground with a perfect landing. Her dark hair still waves from the spinning motion. Ladydoomamon is clutching her stomach as she looks at Sworddramon and falls to the ground.
"HARPOON TORPEDO!" Ikkakumon yells as he launches the attack and hits Ladydoomamon in the head.
"AHHHHHHHG!" She screams and clasps her hands to her head. In her stomach is a deep, pulsating laceration that has a slow river of blood coming out of it.
"Who's laughing now?" Metalgarurumon asks as he launches Ice wolf claw and Ladydoomamon. She freezes over, but it slowly starts to crack open. Short after, it bursts open, Ladydoomamon standing there, hands at her side. Her dress now stained with a thick blue liquid.
"What is that stuff!?" I ask terrified.
"I don't know." Izzy says shocked at the horrific monster. The blood from her stomach was now running down her dress as the spot on the head grew a bump that beat like a heart. The burnt spot on her check has crusted over and her eyes were blood shot and angry. Mimi nearly faints, but Joe caught her and fans her with his hands till her eyes open. I would faint but I'm too scared.
"Look…what…you did…to my pretty…face!" She screams at us. She turns to Sworddramon and starts to dart for her.
"You won't hurt her!" Metalgarurumon roars and runs in front of Sworddramon, "METAL WOLF CLAW!" He fires the attack at Ladydoomamon who stops in her tracks and falls, kneeling, to the ground. Then, she manages to tell us something before dying.
"Piedmon will kill you…for…killing…his…wife!" She falls to her face and disappears into the cloud of mist. I shiver as if a cold, brisk wind and just blown. Sworddramon turns back in to Daggdramon and falls, kneeling, to the floor. All the other digimon return to rookie stage and go to congratulate Daggdramon.
"Good job!" Gomamon says patting her on the back. She smiles a small smile and looks at Gabumon who is sitting a stone throw away. He smiles back and walks over to her to just help her stand up. She places her arm over his neck as support and walks over to Matt who happens to be standing next to me.
"Now," She whispers, "You've seen me digi-volve." I smile at her, what else can I do? Matt leaves to go talk to Gabumon. The rest of the group starts walking, Matt too, but I first pick up Daggdramon and throw her on my back like a backpack. I run to catch up with the group as she nods off on my shoulder.
***
For a while we were walking in the forest, like when the battle happened, but now we're in a cave. Only lord really knows how we got in here or why we followed Tai in here, but we're here. Oh, this is the order we're in, walking of course. Tai and Matt are walking up front, Sora and I walk next, not quite in a line. T.K was a few steps behind Kari, who was a few steps behind me. Joe, Izzy, and Mimi brought up the rear. It's really dark in here, but the high ceiling allows some light to shine in. (While we were walking, I grabbed a torch of the wall, only god knows where it came from.) The cave is really old, it seems that anyway. The stalactites are really long and slightly withered.
We walk and walk for a long time with no conversation, so I decide to talk.
"So, how is everyone?" I ask.
"My feet hurt," Mimi exclaims, "How long have we been walking?"
"One more minute since the last time you asked."
"Izzy, you keep track of these things?"
"Yeah, Tai, it's what I do."
"Well, that's nice to know." I utter.
"It's getting cold in here." Kari mumbles as she runs a little to catch up to me.
"Here, take this, you need it more then me." I hand her the torch.
"Thanks Mya! That's real nice of you," She says with a delightful, big smile on her face, "I'm feeling warmer already!" Not far behind, T.K. is walking up to Kari to share in the warmth. She slows down so he can hold on, too. Not only is she sweet, she shares! Up front, Tai and Matt stop walking and the rest of us stop eventually.
"What's the hold up?" Joe asks.
"It's looks like a bad guy lair if I ever saw one." Tai says with the slight quiver of fear in his voice.
"P-P-Piedmon's lair." T.K. stammers and I swallow hard. They've told we about this Piedmon fellow, not a happy camper, especially since we killed his wife.
"I'll go get him!" Tai starts to march forward.
"No, I'll go with you." Matt says calmly.
"Look, I'm the leader, so I go first." He gives a small wink to Sora who smiles but looks to the floor. There's something going on I don't know about. I wrinkle my nose and look at Sora, who still is looking at the floor. I un-wrinkle my nose and return to the argument.
"Look, if your trying to impress somebody, it ain't working." Matt argues.
"Oh yeah?! Look, it's my decision!"
"Who died and left you president!?"
"It was always this way!"
"You wanna take this elsewhere!?"
"Come on, let's do this, loser!" Matt raises his fist to Tai and takes a good swing and pops him in the side of his jaw. Tai cringes a little but rejuvenates quickly and knocks Matt to the ground. The boys start to wrestle till they hit the floor. I can't take it anymore!
"STOP!" They all turn and look at me, fists in mid swing. I walk over to them and place my hands on my hips. "You stop acting like little children."
"But Matt started it!"
"Nu uh!"
"Yes, you did!"
"Stop it right now!" I yell.
"Now what? You're the leader?" That's it, fighting words. I raise my hand and slap Tai right across his smart mouth.
"OW!" Tai says grabbing at his cheek.
"Don't you ever get smart with me!"
"Yeah Mya! You go gir…"
"As for you, you know better than that! You're not 7!"
"That's right!" Mimi yells in admiration. Tai and Matt stand up, look to the floor and dig their feet in the dirt.
"Now, you two, we've got a Piedmon to beat!" I march ahead of the group, eyes on Daggdramon and me, her at my side. Who's the leader now!? Oh, that would get Tai so pissed of! They follow me as I march up to the Piedmon's door and knock ferociously. I must be high.
"WHO DARE KNOCK ON MY DOOR!?" an evil, rotten, menacing voice says. Kari drops the torch on the floor, but Sora quickly picks it up so no one catches fire.
"I-I-I-Matt, help." I squeak and shiver. I run back to the group and speak up. "We're the D-D-Digi-destine, and we're here to take you out Piedmon!"
"Brave words for such a small voice!" The voice says shrilly. The black door opens with a large squeak and in the doorway stands Piedmon. He's not that scary.
"We're not afraid of you!" Matt yells, I guess trying to impress me after what he did.
"Speak for yourself!" T.K. wails.
"Ah, I have not seen you before! You shall go first!" He trusts an ugly finger in my face and I snap at it. Why am I being brave?
"Feisty, I like feisty. My wife was feisty, but she is dead, like you will be." I walk back into Matt, but Piedmon grabs my arm and raises me into the air! Matt grabs my leg, but Piedmon takes him up too!
"Now, my children, you will DIE!"
End Of Episode Two.
