"I can't believe it's finally here!!" Yolie laughed as she jumped out of bed. "Ken said that I have a great chance of being in the final 7, I hope so, my parents will be so proud!" Yolie spun around the room for a bit and stopped, realising that she hadn't told Mimi about her date because she came home so late last night.
"Mimi, hey Mimi, wake up training's soon and I wanna tell you all about Ken!" Yolie smiled as she nudged Mimi with her foot gently, as she tied her hair up. There was no reply. "Mimi, Mimi are you ok?" Yolie asked concernedly.
Mimi then sniffled slightly and rolled over to face Yolie.
"MIMI, what's happened?" Yolie asked as she saw Mimi's tear stained face. "Did something happen at the wedding?"
"No" Mimi said wiping her face
"Then what is it?"
"It's nothing, Yolie, really I'm just worrying about…the…results, that's all" Mimi lied
"Mimi, it's nothing to worry about, there just gonna announce who's in that's all. And I know that you'll get in for sure" Yolie smiled warmly and sat on Mimi's bed. "Now come on, we've gotta get to training, this is our last chance to prove ourselves"
"Yeah" Mimi answered sadly, she knew that Jyou had something in store for her, yet she was mostly afraid of what he would do to Tanemon if she didn't do whatever he asked.
~*~
Matt, Jyou, Izzy and Michael sat round the large table in the glass room. Matt knew that today was the day that the final 7 would be picked, and he prayed that Jyou would keep his word and not let Mimi into the final 7.
"I have decided." Jyou said breaking Matt out of his thought. "I believe that everyone should have a chance, and not only the word of Ishida sensei. So I propose that we play a little game, if you will"
"What do you mean game?" Michael asked curiously.
"Well we break the trainees into groups, each of them will have to find a crest, and on the way tackle some minor evil digimon" Jyou replied with a smile.
"What! But some can't even punch let alone fight" Matt cried as he stood.
"Yet some have brains, its not all about brawn Yamato" Jyou said
"It's a fair idea, I believe that the candidates would be easier to pick out, if they are put into a situation" Izzy said
"But what about the evil emerging, are you sure it's safe?" Michael asked.
"It's a controlled and peaceful part of the digi-world, the evil hasn't gained his strength yet, but to be sure, the task will be put into the eastern dome, the largest we have. So no interruptions will occur." Jyou replied.
"But isn't that where we contain digimon?" Michael asked
"Yes, but it will test the candidates to be in the same environment where digimon usually inhabit" Jyou answered quickly.
"It seems that you have thought about this" Matt said
"I just want everyone to have a fair chance" Jyou grinned at Matt smugly. "And to show that it is fair, Michael and Izzy will judge and choose the final 7" Jyou said and Michael smiled.
"What!" Matt cried
"It's only fair Yamato, I know you had already chosen your final 7, yet I think that your judgment is a little off at the moment" Jyou said
"Matt calm down, c'mon your lesson will begin soon" Izzy said
"Yes, warm them up before I announce the groups and their tasks" Jyou smiled and Matt clenched his fists.
"You planned this, bastard" Matt scowled before storming out of the room.
"What's up with him?" Izzy asked.
"Sour I guess" Michael replied.

Mimi and Yolie walked slowly and silently towards the gardens, where their lesson was about to begin. Mimi held her head down so Yolie wouldn't see that she was quietly crying to herself.
"Mimi, if you're not up to it then I'll ask Kido sensei if you can…" Yolie began
"NO" Mimi cried bolting her head up.
"Gee I was only looking out for you" Yolie said
"Gomen, I'm just tired. I'll see you over there I need some water ok?" Mimi said
"Ok sure, be careful yeah?" Yolie asked as she turned to walk away.
"Yeah" Mimi smiled half-heartedly as Yolie ran off toward the gardens. "I need to get her back" Mimi sighed tears glazing her eyes again.
"Get who back?" a voice asked from behind her.
"Tai!?" Mimi said as she spun to face the brown-eyed guy.
"Yep, Mimi are you ok?" Tai asked as he saw Mimi's tears.
"Y..ye…no" Mimi cried and fell into his robed covered body.
"Listen you can tell me" Tai said comfortingly.
"That's the problem, I can't, no one can know" Mimi sighed and Tai placed an arm around her shoulder.
"Mimi, come on what's happened?" Tai asked sternly
"It's…"
"Tai where are you? Come on Training starting!" a voice called interrupting Mimi.
"Mimi?" Tai looked at her questioningly.
"Go, I'm ok" Mimi smiled and wiped her tears from her face.
"Are you sure?" Tai asked
"Yes, go" Mimi said and Tai nodded before leaving to find Sora.
"Y'know there are better ways of getting her back, instead of crying" a voice said behind her.
"What is up with the behind me thing?" Mimi thought before turning around.
"Kido sensei, please give her back" Mimi asked
"In time, but there is a way you can get her back." Jyou smirked
"What?" Mimi asked though hesitating not wanting to know the answer.
"Only digital warriors are allowed a digimon, so become a digital warrior" Jyou said
"But…but… how?" Mimi asked
"You were all ready a candidate, yet there is a task for everyone to fulfil. Pass the test and you will become a warrior, and get your digimon back as well" Jyou answered.
"Can you promise that?" Mimi asked with anger.
"I can, just prove yourself."
"Is that all I need to do?" Mimi asked
"Yes." Jyou smiled as he turned and walked away "For now" he whispered to himself, leaving Mimi on her own to think about his words.

Yolie ran towards the gardens, still worried about Mimi, yet anxious to see Ken. She turned quickly around the corner to enter the gardens, yet something stood in her path and threw her to the ground.
"Hey watch where you're going, four eyes" a crude voice cried down to her.
"Hey you were in the way" Yolie cried back looking at the guy who made her fall, a tallish lad with spiked hair and goggles on his head who strangely looked a little like Mimi's ex, Tai.
"You're the one running, probably from here, knowing that you couldn't possibly get into the digital warriors" the guy laughed.
"Leave her alone, Davis" a small boy said as he approached the pair.
"And what are you gonna do about it Cody?" Davis sneered again.
"Hey leave him alone" Yolie cried
"Are you still here? I thought you would have gone home by now" Davis laughed
"Davis why don't you just go to your training before I'll do something that I might enjoy" a voice said
"Who said that?" Davis asked
"I did" Ken said as he came up to Yolie and helped her up.
"Ken?" Davis said a little stunned.
"Davis just go" Ken said "Are you ok?" he then asked Yolie who blushed.
"Erm…yeah of course" Yolie smiled as she dusted herself down.
"I think class is starting" Cody said turning to the three.
"Where's Mimi?" Yolie asked looking around.
"I'm here" Mimi smiled trying to be her old self.
"Good, class is starting" Yolie smiled and pushed Mimi with Ken to the gardens.
"Isn't that…" Davis said
"Mimi Tachikawa" Cody filled in
"Wow, she's really hot" Davis gawped as he watched Mimi walk off with Yolie and Ken.

"He made this thing up to get back at me. He always wants to hurt me. Bastard. Why does he have to take the one thing that will make me happy? That is if I ever get the nerve to ask her. Baka Yamato, (stupid) your making him win!" Matt thought angrily as he marched his way towards the gardens and to the class. Mimi felt her heart leap when she caught a glimpse of the blonde haired god, that had suddenly drawn her attention, away from the pain and fear that she was feeling, and towards a feeling of warmth and happiness that seemed to have been missing for a long time in her life. Mimi sighed slightly, she wanted to beat Kido sensei so badly yet she knew that he was capable of a lot of damage through his hierarchy, and that no matter how much she tried there would still be him on her back.
"Why me?" Mimi thought. "Why can't I live a simple life like other girls my age. Instead I'm risking my life to save Tanemon from a horrible creepy guy, and I'm falling for my stupid sensei who would never touch me any way! Mimi you love to do this to yourself" Mimi shouted at herself.
"Hey Mimi, did you hear that?" Yolie nudged Mimi, snapping her out of her argument.
"Hmm? Nani?" Mimi asked
"Sensei just announced that Kido sensei will be giving us an important announcement, though for some reason he looked ticked off" Yolie said pondering to herself.
"It's probably because Izumi sensei and Tagami sensei (sorry don't know Michael's last name) have been chosen to pick the final 7" Ken said.
"Why?" Mimi asked
"Don't know, but we'll find out soon." Ken said.
As if on cue, Jyou walked into the gardens, followed by Michael and Izzy towards Matt. The place fell silent as Jyou took his place in front of the trainees, though gazing at Mimi.
"He's making me nervous" Mimi thought.
"Is he looking at you?" Yolie asked softly.
"As you know, I am here to announce that no longer you shall be judged inside this glass dome. You will now be set into teams of 7 and with that, you will under go a test to bring back a crest, one for each of your group. During this test you will encounter digimon, yet this is a controlled test so you do not need to worry. Izumi sensei shall read out your group. Listen carefully, and good luck." Jyou smiled and looked at Mimi before stepping down and letting Izzy take over.
"What is he planning?" Matt thought as Jyou grinned at him.
"Group 1, Yamagmi Taichi. Takenouchi Sora. Ichijoji Ken. Motimyo Daisuke. (can't spell his name!) Inoue Miyako, Iori Cody (don't know last name)" Izzy began and Matt's face dropped.
"There the names on my list! He's putting them all into a group so Izzy and Michael will pick them. Hold on there's one more person, he wouldn't" Matt thought angrily as he turned to Jyou who grinned to him as the last name was read:
"and Tachikawa Mimi" Izzy finished off and Yolie hugged her friend as Sora groaned and Davis smiled.
"You did this on purpose, you knew!" Matt whispered angrily to Jyou.
"Now now Yamato, I wouldn't dream of doing something like this. It just came out this way. Just hope that she doesn't do as well as everyone hopes" Jyou grinned and Matt gritted his teeth.
The rest of the groups were split up and Mimi joined her group.
"Don't cross me Tachikawa" Sora snarled and Mimi sighed.
"Remember do your best, we'll be watching" Jyou smiled and looked towards Mimi before giving the nod to Izzy who opened the doors for the large eastern dome, where digimon roamed free in a wild habitat. This was Mimi only chance to get Tanemon back, so she had to do well, un be known to Matt.
