Okay, now we'll switch off to the other children. Well… in the next
chapter anyway…
Chapters 8 – Phone calls from the Twilight Zone… If only that were true.
"What a day! Hey dad, can I go spend the night with Michael? If not for fun, then maybe to help him get over today."
"I'll see Alex."
The other parents were there at the school picking up their children. They thought it could be a good idea.
"Maybe the kids could spend the night together. When was the last time they were together and had any fun?" Ryo asked.
"Oh… I don't know… Maybe that one day in the park." Tony quipped.
Tony could be cold at times, and this wasn't an exception.
"Hold it. First we need to tell Takato about our plan." Rika pointed out.
"Well, the school's busy planning a play and ordering for materials. We'll have to call from elsewhere." Alex told them.
"Since when has the school done plays?" Henry asked him.
Henry never knew of plays when he attended the school.
"Well, since someone donated the money to build an auditorium. What's his name? Oh yeah… Yamaki."
The Tamers recognized the name.
"HE donated it? Wow!"
"I'm sorry Henry, but today isn't a good time. Maybe some other time?"
Even though it was over the phone, Henry could tell Takato was nervous about something. He had the habit of making it clear when he spoke.
"What's wrong?"
"Wha… There's…um… kind of a problem… How'd you guess?"
Henry figured it'd be best if he kept it secret how he could tell. Just in case…
"I just had a feeling."
"Well… It's a big problem that… Well, I doubt Michael wants visitors now."
Henry immediately knew something was seriously wrong if Michael didn't want visitors.
"What could be THAT serious?"
"You don't want to know…"
"Try me."
"Well… I think we have proof that at least Michael has been affected somehow by something. You could say that… He… well… digivolved."
Henry paled when he heard that.
"HE WHAT??????????"
"Well not exactly anyway. It's just that he was his usual self before taking a nap, and he kind of had a growth spurt when he was asleep."
Henry paled even more. If this happened to Michael…
"Um… Are you sure he's sick?" Henry said out loud.
"Henry, what are you talking about?"
"I'm not alone, and I don't want to worry the others." He whispered into the receiver.
"Oh. Huh?"
Takato began talking to someone at his house.
"YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!!!!" Takato yelped.
"Why not?" Answered a voice that was vaguely familiar.
"It's just that… Aren't you… Never mind."
Takato then began to talk to Henry again.
"Uh… This might sound odd, but Michael's still in a mood for visitors…"
Henry arched an eyebrow.
"You're kidding."
"Nope. I don't like the idea either. He might terrify the kids."
"Okay…. I hope."
"So you are coming then?"
"I guess… After all, this calls for a meeting, one way or another…"
The Tamers were a little worried when he said that.
"By the way… Jeri's here."
"JERI'S THERE???????? In that case, I'm definitely coming."
The other Tamers nodded in agreement.
"Okay then… bye."
"Bye."
Henry hung up the phone.
"Well?" Alex asked.
"I'm not sure if you can spend the night, but we can visit."
"What were you talking about other than that?" Ryo asked.
"You'll see…"
"Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" Rika wondered…
Beelzemon: HEY SKULLSATAMON!!!!!! HAS DAEMON SOBERED UP YET?????????
Skullsatamon: (Looks into another room.) No, but at least he looks normal now. Also, you didn't need to shout.
Beelzemon: (Looks into other room.) Thank our creators for our metabolism.
(Daemon, although still drunk, is normal otherwise.)
Beelzemon: I know how to sober him up!
Skullsatamon: DON'T DO IT!!!!!
Beelzemon: Hey Daemon, have you ever thought of hundreds and thousands of gallons of water splashing and sloshing and slishing?
(Daemon runs for a bathroom.)
Beelzemon: Huh? I thought he was too drunk to tell…
