~ Duty Calls ~

Arukenimon banged her fist down in frustration, making the customers stare. She ignored them, and they resumed eating while Digitamamon took more orders.

Mummymon glanced at the bowl before him. No longer able to resist temptation, he brought the soup to his lips and began slurping nosily.

She couldn't stop a smirk from appearing on her face. Mummymon, the pathetic love-struck servant. Still, more pressing issues were at hand. Those meddling Digi-brats were going to demolish her spires if she didn't stop them. Arukenimon could not risk creating anymore Spire Digimon. She was on down to handfuls of obelisks scattered around in the Digital World. Sighing, she grabbed Mummymon and dragged him with her to the exit.

Mummymon licked the remains of his soup from his face. "But my sweet, we haven't tipped the waiter!"

"No time for that," she growled in impatience. "Time to a pay a visit to you-know-who." They jumped into their old yellow jeep.

"I love visits!" he exclaimed. "Who's it this time?"

A gloved hand went over a pair of shades as Arukenimon groaned.

"Is it Ogremon? Andromon? Ken?"

"Mummymon," she said wearily.

"Yes darling?"

"Shut up and drive."

"Okay guys," began Tai. "I called this meet-"

Someone clearing his throat interrupted him. "Yes Tai?" said Izzy innocently.

The leader of the Digidestined rolled his eyes. "Izzy and I called you guys cuz we wanna announce that-"

"Ooh! Tai knows how to use big words!" grinned Kari. Tai glared at his sister.

"Just get to the point man!" yawned Matt.

Tai crossed his arms, staring solemnly at his audience. Ending a dramatic pause, he smiled. "Mimi's gonna come back!" At that, total pandemonium broke loose in Izzy's bedroom. The boys exchanged bemused glances, watching the girls' responses. Sora and Kari cheered.

Yolei, who had been in the desk chair, fell off in shock. "Argh!" Jumping up, she instantly began to wring Izzy's neck. "Why didn't you tell me this before?! We have to get a party going on! Mimi's coming back!"

Everyone sweatdropped. Izzy winced. "I'd appreciate it if you'd stop damaging my brain cells, Yolei."

Yolei let go of his shirt collar, and he stumbled back. Smoothing his hair down with a hand, the boy complained, "Why didn't Tai get choked by you?"

Tai quickly pushed Ken in front of him, but his wild brown hair was still in view.

Yolei saw an excuse. "Cuz then I'd have to hurt Ken! The Digidestined can't go without both geniuses!" This comment made Izzy and Ken twitch.

There was a muffled ringing sound that made everyone stop. Matt brought out his cell phone from his pocket. "Hello?"

The instrument emitted crackles of static accompanying Mimi's voice. "He-p! The -lane -- be-n- attacked!"

GD~ Hi! It's me, the author. I just wanted to say that although this fic is being rewritten from scraps of the original, the ending will be very different.

Verumon~ You should never begin an ending if the beginning hasn't ended.

GD~ Verumon, you realize that your job as a muse is to aid, not confuse?

Verumon~ *yawns* Then I'll restate it for your small mind, GD. Never count your Digieggs before they hatch.

GD~ … I hate you Verumon.
