Chapter Thirteen: We'll grow together

"Yes?" said Miss Makino. "I'm here for the party" Jenn said smiling and swaying slightly because of a little wolf in her backpack. "Oh, yes. Come in please" Miss Makino said and escorted Jenn into the cellar which had a table with uncountable chairs and a corner couch around it. "I'll go fetch Ruki" Miss Makino said and left. When she had gone, Jenn let Kolamon out of her backpack. "Punch a few holes in there, will you" she said and looked around the room. "I don't think that this is gonna be a hell of a party" "Got a problem with that, dog" Ruki said and stepped in the room. She was followed by an upright fox. She was yellow and had white feet, hands and the tip of her tail and the tips of her ears were white too. She was wearing purple gloves. "Not really, I was just noticing" Kolamon said and sat down on her hind legs. Ruki pulled a strange device out of her pocket and held it in Kolamon's direction. "Kolamon, Level Rookie, Attack Blizzard, second Attack Cold bullet." "I can do that too" Jenn said and placed her right hand in front of her heart. "D-Glove" she said and a white fingerless glove with several twigs binding a blue tiger on her back hand appeared. She held her palm upwards in the fox's direction. "Renamon, Level Rookie, Attack Diamond Storm, second Attack Wisteria Punch. Cool, it worked" Jenn said and jumped into the air. "You mean, you didn't know if it would work?" "Not really. Oh, by the way. I'm Jennifer Kamya Tsui" Jenn introduced herself and held her hand out to Ruki. "Ruki Makino" came the answer. Ruki though didn't take Jenn's hand. "So, what's this party for and who's coming?" "Trip is in the house" came a yell. "Whose that?" Jenn asked and her question was answered by a boy with green spiky hair that jumped into the cellar and nearly fell but quickly gathered himself. "Hi, I'm Trip." "I noticed" Ruki said. "Wow, cool. This is gonna be some party" he said and eyed the girls. Suddenly something fell down the stairs. It looked like a light red-brown ferret on two legs with the same fur as Renamon except that it was a red-orange. He had long claws and large ears. After it had hit the ground, it got up quickly. When it had gotten and tried to look like nothing had happened, Trip burst out laughing and Jenn and Kolamon were caught by his laughter and they too started laughing. Ruki and Renamon looked at the boy and the digimon with dislike in their eyes. "He-hello" came a quiet voice from the door. In the doorway there was a girl with shoulder-length black hair that was cut in layers and had baby blue streaks in it. She had unnoticeable turquoise coloured eyes. She was wearing a yellow shirt with Angel written on it in baby blue, jean shorts and blue strapless sandals with a circular hole in the middle and holes around it making it look like a flower. She was also wearing a watch with a turquoise face, a mood ring on her right thumb, a ruby ring on her right ring finger, a necklace saying Leo and hoop earrings saying Cutie. "Hi Lita" Trip said. "I'm looking for Ruki" Lita said shyly. "So look no longer" Trip said and pointed towards where Ruki and Jenn were standing. "There she is. At least I think so" he added. "I. I'm Lita Hashimoto. I'm here for the meeting" the girl said. "Right, Kolamon Tamer." "Keeper, please" Jenn said. "And my name's Jenn, thank you" she added. "Whatever, you, whacko and Lita, just sit here and wait till the others come." "Ruki" came several voices. "Cellar" she yelled back and shortly after her response ten familiar children followed by ten familiar digimon entered and sat down. "I'm." "Shut up, Gogglehead, I'll introduce everyone when everyone's here" she said. "Haha, funny. Everyone when everyone" Trip repeated and he and the ferret burst out laughing. When everyone was sitting, they heard the front door crash open. "And no, I don't have any feelings for Ree" they heard a boy yell. "Right, Kerry, and I'm Julia Roberts. It's obvious, you knucklehead, even freaking Tuinimon knows." "I don't care about Ree" Kerry yelled. "Would you two just shut up" another girl yelled over their heads and kicked the cellar door open. She had shoulder-length messy cut blue hair with blue streaks and purple eyes. She was wearing a red top with black seems, black jeans and black and white Nikes. She also had a black fingerless glove on her right hand with a blood red fox kanji on it, two black earrings and a necklace with a fox kanji on it. Kerry had golden blonde hair in the same messy style as 'Gogglehead's' and ice blue eyes with a distant look to them. He was wearing a grey t-shirt, blue jean pants, black sneakers, black finger cut gloves and a yin-yang necklace. The other girl had long wavy, dark black hair that was shadowing her face. One could see one of her eyes from out behind her hair. It was a deep green that was almost black. "Ouch" Trip said as he felt as if he had slammed into a metal door. She wore a black, long sleeved shirt, baggy black jacket, black sweatpants and black runners. One could see the corner of a small notebook and pen in her right pocket, two throwing knives strapped to her waist, and a pair of dark sunglasses hanging from her left pocket. They were followed by three strange looking animals. Two looked similar to Renamon but had different colours. One was baby blue with shamrock green colourings where Renamon was white and black gloves. It also had a scar over it's right eye. The other was silver with white and wearing red gloves. In front of the two Renamon-look-alikes there was a cat. But it wasn't an everyday cat. Sure, it was coloured black, everyday. It had green eyes, everyday. Green and silver collar, not that everyday but thinkable. What made her look abstract was that she was standing on two legs and had a small knife strapped to her waist. "Semimon, Level Rookie. Cashmon, Level Rookie. Tuinimon, Level Rookie" a blue haired boy at the table read from his D-Power. "Thank you, Lee. And to you: Who are you? And why can't you open the door like normal people?" Ruki said, her second question aiming to the blue haired girl. "I'm Reelyn Raika Ichiro and this is my. partner, Senara Isabella Smith. And I think opening a door the way I do it, let's you enter with much more a bang. Oh, and this is Kerry Kakera. He is known to be my and Seni's enemy cause he fights for the good side, hey, Kerry" she said with a sly smile on her face. "So? Being on the good side has it's advantages and." "Oh, shut up, will you, loser" Ree interrupted. "I'd like to know what the hell we're doing here" Seni interrupted. "I opened up a meeting" Ruki said and the three new Keepers sat down. "But I'm only gonna start when we're all here." "Who's missing?" a rabbit-like digimon said. "Terriermon! What are you doing here?" Lita said loudly (which isn't very loud, at that) and hugged it. "Uh, Lee, save me" Terriermon said and wiggled it's ears. "Um, girl, could you maybe leave my Terriermon alone" said Lee and carefully pulled Terriermon away from Lita. "Your. Terriermon?" she asked. "Yes." "I have a Terriermon too" she said and looked at the table since everyone was looking at her. "Sheesh, she can't even see the difference between her fighting machine and someone else's" Seni said laughing. "Terriermon's not a machine" Lita said quietly but was out shouted by Lee. "Right" Ree said and grinned at Seni. "Hey, everyone. Jenn, I thought we wanted to go together?" said a boy with shaggy brown hair in the doorway interrupted Ree and Seni's grinning. He had soft brown eyes and was wearing a red T-Shirt with an orange Confucius symbol on it and tan brown cargo khakis. He had sunglasses resting on his forehead and was wearing an orange fingerless glove on his right hand and a black fingerless glove on his left. The orange one was decorated with a red diamond split with a jagged line. "Hello" said a massive, thick green snake with black diamond markings and two red mohawks that was slithering in front of him. "Serpenmon, Level Rookie, Attack Constrictor beam, second Attack Snake eyes" Gogglehead read off his D-Power. "Look at his cool hair, Taka" said a dinosaur that had followed Gogglehead inside. "Shh, Guilmon" Taka whispered. "Only four more" Ruki said and looked at the four empty chairs. Three were next to Ree and one was next to Trip since only Jenn had dared to sit next to him. "Edkata Kerinada, Age 15" Lita's D-Glove said. "Damn it, stupid F-Vision" a female voice yelled. "No freaking Angewomon anywhere." Then a quiet male voice came: "Calm down, Starr. It's not that bad. God, it's not like it's Judgment Day, you know. And." Suddenly the boy's voice trailed off. Then a boy with brown dreadlocks and a girl with long silky-smooth jet black hair cut in layers with icy blue highlights stepped in though the door that had a dent in it from Ree's kick. "Massive" the boy gave to comment and was hit over the head by a white cat with silver claws. "Be quiet" it said. "So, who are you losers?" Ree asked. "I'm Trinity Starr Tomoko and I'm not a loser. Deo here may be one, though" the girl said. Deo smirked. "I'm not a loser either." "Right, said Snow White" came another female voice. "Name and digimon please" Seni said and laughed. "Mai Katherine Thomson and Reimon. And you?" Seni wanted to answer but Ruki interrupted. "Later. Now we're only missing one more." The purple haired girl sat down and purple and black flame-like ghost floated behind her. "Hey, aren't you that mean girl from the train station?" Jenn asked and stood up. "Maybe, maybe not" Mai said. "You are. You're the one who said digimon aren't our friends." "Where she's got a point, she's got a point" Ree said. Seni nodded. So did Deo and Starr wh0 had sat down next to Ree. "I don't think so" said a girl behind Mai. "Haru-chan" said Deo and grinned. The girl in the door looked at Deo who jumped back as he always did when they looked eye to eye. Her red eyes gave her lonely look an underlining. "I think digimon are meant to be our friends. Taka, Ruki, Lee and their friends will probably think so too" Haru said and put her hands into her baggies. "How does she know who we are?" asked a digimon similar to Terriermon, except that it was a bit more brown and had three horns on it's head (Terriermon has only one). "Hush, Lopmon" said an upright lion next to Taka. His Tamer, a brown haired girl who looked a bit scared of all the hate in the room, nodded. "We'll grow together" said a two legged blue Doberman with black stripes, it had big claws but a gentle look and dark blue eyes. "I hope so, Seimon, I hope so" Haru said and stroked him. She then sat down. "Let's get down to business" Ruki said and closed the door.
