In the last chapter:
Using the ability to freeze time whilst the DigiDestined were fighting Ogremon, Devimon uses a mystic powder on Angewomon, one which has side effects causing her to uncontrollably release a fit of anger with bitter hatred onto Angemon. A big argument starts between them, eventually coming through to T.K. and Kari, and Tai, Davis and Matt. Although T.K. didn't remember it, he had previously been thinking about what would happen if one day something happened between Angemon and Angewomon; without realizing, his premonition had become for real.
"I still wonder what set off Angewomon like that," Sora said worriedly as she put her arm around Tai's waist.
"Who cares," Tai replied in a sour tone, but also putting his arm around her under the thick and soft sleeping bag.
Sora wriggled closer to him as he snorted into the sleeping bag, hoping Kari wouldn't hear what she was about to say. "Yeah I know… but wasn't Angewomon acting a little-"
"I heard that!" Kari yelled violently from the other side of the tent, snorting furiously as she cuddled Gatomon close to her chest.
Sora looked at her for a moment, almost sympathetically. Kari saw her and went red, turning away. It was obvious that Kari was angry because whilst she had the power to defend herself, someone like Sora came along and dared to feel sorry for her.
"Sorry," she mumbled into Tai, almost letting Kari not hear the apology.
In the second tent, Mimi wanted to ask someone the same question: 'Why was Angewomon acting so strangely?' but she didn't dare. Matt was sitting on the sleeping bag next to her, with one hand clenching a fold of the tent, already tearing a hole in it. He was so angry with Tai, Davis and Kari that he almost tore the tent completely but he had the self-control not to because he wanted to show everyone that he was 'superior' to the three. Mimi cringed and looked at T.K. on the other side of the tent. He was halfway in his sleeping bag, grumbling about how Kari, his absolute best friend besides Patamon, who had betrayed him.
"You can stay away from that sissy T.K.," Matt said angrily to him. "She's not worth complaining about. Her and her Angewomon."
"Yes," Mimi began hesitantly, trying to pull his hand away from the tent whilst hoping he wouldn't yell at her at the same time, "But what happened to Angewomon today? She's usually so sweet and sacred. Today she was practically blowing her brains out yelling at Angemon, telling him it was his fault. She's never done that. What do you think happened to her? And where did Ogremon mysteriously disappear to?"
"Who cares?" Matt said as gruffly as Tai had, but also showing a soft spot for Mimi as he held her close in the sleeping bag. "I hope you and T.K. don't go anywhere near those traitors."
Mimi looked at him only for a moment and ended up sighing in despair. She wriggled down lower as she eased into his arms and tried to get some well-deserved sleep. T.K. looked at her and his brother, then tried to sleep as well.
In the third tent lay Joe looking up, as Izzy and Ken were sitting on their sleeping bags beside him.
"Isn't the moon so beautiful?" he asked with a completely fake relaxed tone.
Ken looked at him like he was some kind of nut. "…Joe, that's the ceiling."
"…I knew that. What are you doing Izzy?"
"Logging on to the Net."
"In the middle of the night? WHY?"
"I dunno, it's fun, I'm bored, checking emails can be a way to get out of boredom."
"How are you able to log on to the Internet without a cord?"
"…Oh yeah, no wonder it's not working! I guess my train of thought is kinda lost. You're awake too, why are you asking me why I'm doing things in the middle of the night?"
"I'm just thinking, y'know… I don't understand how everyone got into that big fight today. I'm so confused… but I have the crest of reliability. I'm like the father of the group… I have to be responsible for what everyone does around here."
"I think Angewomon was the key. I expected her to be a really nice Digimon. Why did she act like that today? I mean, it isn't Angemon's fault. She turned completely against him."
Joe heard what Ken said, but he wasn't really taking it in. Izzy and Ken looked at him watch the ceiling, looked at each other doubtfully, then sighed in despair as they turned their heads to the sky themselves.
In the final tent Yolei and Cody were very worried about Davis as they saw him trying to smash the goggles which had been handed down from Tai with a large piece of jagged stone.
"who does Matt think he is, calling Tai a dork and my girl a sissy? He doesn't match the crest of friendship at all!"
"Neither do you," Yolei mumbled under her breath.
"WHAT WAS THAT?!"
"Uh… nothing. Nothing at all…"
"And T.A., T.E., whatever his name is! How dare he make fun of Angewomon? She's the perfect Digimon, and he thinks he has every right to-"
"Talking about Angewomon," Cody began, "Why was she acting so… in a way…"
"So in a way WHAT?!"
Cody and Yolei cringed back into their sleeping bags. "Nothing…!"
* * * * *
"Shut up you stupid JERK!! I don't want to hear your voice!"
Mimi and all the others were awakened by Matt screaming like a girl to Tai. They had obviously both woken up early because of the bitter conflict that caused them not to sleep, and engaged in another vicious argument.
"I should never have invited you to this DigiDestined reunion you stupid FREAK!"
"Well I'm a DigiDestined! And if you think not inviting me will be the end of it, think again! I've got many people who won't come if I don't, mainly Mimi and T.K. who are always by my side! What gives you all the right, oh almighty king, to-"
"People, stay calm! Please just stop fighting!" Sora said desperately.
"Yeah, calm for YOU!" Matt shouted impatiently and insultingly at her.
Rage began to bubble up inside the usually peace-loving Sora. "You NERD! How dare you insult me like that! I was trying to help calm you guys down, and what do you do? You're useless! You're a pathetic little brat with no right to do anything! Tai's right, you shouldn't have been invited. If only we had known that you would cause so much hatred I wouldn't have to lose my voice shouting at a useless pathetic twerp like YOU!"
Mimi's eyes were already forming tears at the sight of everyone fighting, but she didn't notice it because this time she was prepared to do something about it. Whilst she was calming everyone down, Tai thought she was Joe or one of the others who tried to interfere in the fight, and agitatedly pushed her away really hard.
"AARGH!" Mimi screamed as she fell.
Note: Okay… an over-dramatized ending, but it's better than a non over-dramatized ending… right? Anyway, the rest of the conflict (which isn't much more, I swear to all of you who are asleep out there) will continue next chapter. And I don't even need to tell you this, but… please review! J
Luv, Fëaruin
