Chapter Thirty-four: Where we lived
Mai sighed and looked into the alley. "Ri?" she asked. A dustbin moved. "It's me, Mai." A girl's head moved out from behind a bin. She had black hair that went down to her lower back and big light purple eyes. She was wearing a long sleeved white shirt under a sleeveless blue shirt, blue beach shorts and flip-flops. Around her neck she had a locket. "Mai?" she asked tilting her head. When she noticed it was really her sister, she jumped at her with tears in her eyes. "Yesterday, Jake and his guys were here because of the money and when I told them you wasn't here, they wanted to beat me up. But then this boy came and saved me and said, I don have to worry, cause you coming home tomorrow which is today. I'm so happy you're back" she said. Mai smiled. Few people liked her as much as her sister. And one had left her only a day ago. She sighed. "I have to go visit a few friends tomorrow, wanna come?" Ri nodded and led Mai to the back of the alley. "I found another blanket two or three days ago" she said smiling and pointed to a big woollen blanket in the corner. Mai smiled. "Great."
Lita knocked. After a while the door opened and she was staring into her mothers eyes. "Lita" Hiromi managed to whisper. Lita looked to the ground. "You're back." With that Hiromi fell to her knees, grabbed her daughter and hugged her. Lita responded to the hug. "Where were you?" she asked. Lita stayed silent. After a while the two had come into the living room and Lita's father and younger sister had joined. "Where were you?" Hiromi asked again. "I. I can't tell you" Lita said looking to the ground. "You shouldn't have run away" her father said and stoked her hair. "Why not?" he asked and eyed Terriermon who had been sitting on her shoulder motionlessly. "Has it got something to do with that absurd plush animal?" Lita swallowed, got up, nodded and ran to her room. Minoru ran to the table, grabbed her guitar and began playing the song she had only just learned. With that her parents sat down next to her and listened to the music. Silently looking to Lita's room.
"Hey, mom, dad" Eddie greeted his parents and walked to his room. "Where have you been?" his mother asked and stopped him. "I was over at a friends." Sandra let her son go and sighed. "Next time please either tell us on before hand or phone us. We were crazy with fear for you" she said. "Did you feed my fish?" Eddie asked. "What? Oh. No. We didn't. Well I didn't. Time you know" she said and looked at her watch. "Oh, my god. I gotta go." She grabbed a bag and ran off. Eddie sighed and walked over to his room. After giving his fish, Nat and Trev, some food, he picked up the phone, pushed Serpenmon of the sofa and called Jenn.
Jenn unlocked the door to her apartment and closed the door. Finding herself in front of her older brother. She fell back. "Max? What are you doing here?" she asked shocked. Max smiled and shrugged. "I felt like visiting my sister and when I get there she's gone. So I stay two days and when she arrives, he falls to her feet seeing me." "It's not that. It's just. I was well shocked." Max held out a hand and helped Jenn up. "So, how's it going and where were you?" "I was. I'm fine" Jenn said trying to avoid the last question. "And you were where?" Max repeated his question. "I." Jenn was stopped by the phone. She sighed and picked it up after placing Kolamon on the sofa. Max slumped down next to her and stroked the wolf. "Cool. The fur feels really real." "Jenn" Jenn answered the phone. Her eyes widened. "I'm sorry, I can't talk now. Bye. Yeah.. me too" she said and put the phone down. "Who was it?" Jenn's eyes widened again. "A friend of mine" she stated plainly. Max grinned. "A friend?" he asked slyly. Jenn nodded. "Okay.. Can we visit this friend tomorrow?" Max asked smiling. Jenn winced. "Yeah, okay." Later when Max had decided to hit the sack, Jenn got up and grabbed the phone.
"Hino! Starr's back" the woman yelled. Starr walked straight past her and into her room. "Starr, where. did she go?" Hino asked his wife. "She went straight to her room." Hino sighed. "What a terrible child." Starr opened her window and helped Starrmon up. "Why'd I have to come thought the window?" Starr glared at her digimon. "Yeah, yeah, okay" Starrmon said and curled into a. something in a corner and went to sleep.
"We haven't been to this part of town before, have we, Deo?" Whiskermon asked. Deo shook his head. "But Haru and Kerry left in this direction, so, we'll just go look for them?" "Won't she dump you?" Whiskermon asked. "You have no idea what you're talking about, right?" Whiskermon shook his head. "It's such a nice word though. Erm, but Lita left in this direction also" Whiskermon added. "She lives around here" Deo said waving around himself. Whiskermon nodded. "Hey, look there" Whiskermon said looking towards the sky. "Is that a dragon?" Deo said pulling his eyes to slits. "I. It's a digimon" Whiskermon yelled. The dragon stopped in midair and looked down to the two. "It's gonna attack us" Whiskermon yelled and went into a fighting pose. The dragon zoomed to the ground and landed in front of Deo and Whiskermon. A girl, a boy and a huge black rabbit got off. "Who are you?" Deo asked losing tension. "I am Kaori Leira, follower of Kae and that's my digimon, HellBunnymon" said the girl sand pointed to the rabbit. "And I'm Hiroji Etsuko, follower of Kae. And this is my digimon, Androiddramon Dragon Mode" said the boy pointing to the dragon who roared. "And you are?" the girl asked. "Deon Wade and this is my digimon, Whiskermon." "How. nice. He's Rookie. HellBunnymon, he should be easy." The rabbit laughed. "I'll de-digivolve to Ultimate, so I can have some fun" it said and glowed to Antylamon. An even bigger rabbit with long ears wearing pants and a kind of plate under it's neck. It had piercing red eyes that glowed meanly. "Come and fight, kitty" it said and laughed once again. Whiskermon hissed.
I like HellBunnymon, don't you? Okay, I just finished before the fight, dunno why, just did!
Mai sighed and looked into the alley. "Ri?" she asked. A dustbin moved. "It's me, Mai." A girl's head moved out from behind a bin.

"I found another blanket two or three days ago" she said smiling and pointed to a big woollen blanket in the corner. Mai smiled. "Great."
Lita knocked. After a while the door opened and she was staring into her mothers eyes. "Lita" Hiromi managed to whisper. Lita looked to the ground. "You're back." With that Hiromi fell to her knees, grabbed her daughter and hugged her. Lita responded to the hug. "Where were you?" she asked. Lita stayed silent.
