Chapter 2: Wings of Fury

After we played soccer we got to talking. The conversation started with the game and made a turn to the digital world.

"Are you digidestend?" Zoeie asked.

"Err.yeah. Are you guys?"

We all nodded.

"Cool"

"Kouji, why didn't you ask her?" Takuya asked.

I shrugged.

"So Kim tell us about yourself," Kouichi said kindly.

"There's not much to tell."

"There has to be something," J.P. said.

"Err.I'm here. That's really all I can think of. So what have you guys been through? I mean you know we are digidestend."

The others seemed to like her perfectly fine and told her about all our adventures in the digital world. She listened intently as the talked and the conversation once again changed courses.

"I think world peace would be the greatest thing to happen," Zoeie commented.

"But all the things we've done were to create world peace in the digital world. What more can we really do?" Takuya asked.

"Peace is good," J.P. said shortly.

"I fight, I don't fight, I really don't see the difference," Kim said shrugging. After her comment there was silence.

"Well I don't think it's ever going to happen," I said.

"You've gotta admit he has a point," Takuya said.

"Well we can always dream can't we?" Zoeie said.

As Kim and I walked home we were both silent. It was kind of irritating. When we got home Kim turned on the TV and was watching Friends.

"You watch that?" I asked with a mocking tone in my voice.

"Yeah, you got a problem with that?"

"Yeah"

"Well that's too bad"

I took the remote control and changed the channel.

She gave me a quick look, went over to the TV and changed the channel. She placed a tape over the receiver so the remote was useless.

As I went over to turn back the channel her hand shot out to block me path. I pushed her hand away lightly. She slapped me and decided to try and beat me up. And so we fought. So neither of us got to watch any TV.

An hour or so later we were both beaten up pretty badly. My shins were killing me because she kept kicking them, and I got socked in the stomach a few times too. Kim was rubbing her left arm which was pretty bruised up. Actually it wasn't my fault her arm was bruised. She kept crashing into things.

I really regret wishing her to be anything nut prissy. If this is what it's like to have a sibling live with you I don't know how people live with it.

We went to our rooms to change soo we'd cover up the injuries. I mean if my mom got a good look at what happened she'd probably faint.

~Kim's POV~

I went on the internet using my laptop. Yeah the Minamotos have internet. But I didn't want to get into another fight. My left arm was still bothering me. It like the time I got sunburned. If you touch it, it hurts really badly.

The only person on today was Asia. Okay right now it's about six here so in America it's about 1 in the afternoon.

Our conversation went like this:

Freein03: Sup grl

Asiandragongrl03: Sup, How's Japan?

Freein03: Sucks. Why did you suggest me to live here? I hate it, there's this boy, Kouji, and ugh. I can't stand him.

Asiandragongrl03: What's wrong with him?

Freein03: He is such a freakin jerk!!!!!!!!!

Asiandragongrl03: Well guess what

Freein03: What?

Asiandragongrl03: That freakin jerk's my boyfriend

Freein03: What?! My God! How can you stand him?

Asiandragongrl03: How can you hate him?

Freein03: Today when I was watching friends he totally beat me up

Asiandragongrl03: You're not telling me the whole story

Freein03: K. I was watching friends. I placed a box over the receiver so he couldn't change the channel. I placed my hand out to stop him when he started walking over to the TV. He pushed my hand away. I hit him and we started fighting. Is that descriptive enough for you

Asiandragongrl03: Why are you snapping at me?! Well in my opinion, you brought it on to yourself

Freein03: S'cuse me?!

Asiandragongrl03: What it says above

Freein03: How can you stand that jerk?

Asiandragongrl03: Know what?

Freein03: What?

Asiandragongrl03: If you keep dissin my man before you get to know the boy, I'm running over to Japan and I'm gonna beat the fuck out of you

Freein03: What makes you think you can?

Asiandragongrl03: I know I can. Now stop being soo bitchie

Freein03: I'm not being a bitch and I can take you on any time

Asiandragongrl03: Records are beyond against you

Freein03: I got a new martial arts teacher and I'm a black belt. What are you a no belt? 'I don't work by belts I work through strength' Pathetic

Asiandragongrl03: Dam it!!!!!!! You don't get it!!!!!!!! Even Bruce lee couldn't teach you even if he were still alive!!!!!!!!!! You don't have the patience and the heart to be a warrior. You will NEVER beat me!!!!!!!!!!

Freein03: Yes I will

Asiandragongrl03: You fight from anger. I fight from my heart and soul. You will never defeat me Freein03: I think this conversation is over Asiandragongrl03: I KNOW it's NOT. Can't you face the facts? You're acting like my cousin's daughter. She's 2 years old! And you're probably going to cry on your bed like a baby now too. You have no reason to hate him!!!!!!!!!!!!! Freein03: Yes I do!!!!!!!!!!!!! Asiandragongrl03: Yeah!!!!!! Well it's the dam crappiest reason in the freakin world!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And if you leave me hanging I'm coming over there and I'm going to beat the crap out of you!!!!!!!!! Freein03: Bye!!!!!!!!!!!! Asiandragongrl03: No

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I logged off the internet fuming. My only friend cares more about a guy than she does about me. She betrayed me.

I heard something like a fire cracker come from Kouji's room minutes later.

~Kouji's POV~

I was talking to all my friends in a chat room including Asia. Out of the blue she types, "Kouji I'm coming over to settle a score with that bitch at your house. Please excuse my language. But.grrr!!!!!!!!"

Takuya typed back, "She's not that bad. We all met her today"

She typed, "Read this"

What I'm guessing is that that was the conversation she had with her. I didn't get a chance to read it because just then there was a loud popping sound and Asia appeared at my side.

"Kouji, its soo great to see you again," Asia whispered into my ear.

I fell into her embrace as we hugged.

"I missed you soo much," she whispered.

"Me too"

We drew closer and closer until we kissed. It was all interrupted when someone at the doorway cleared their throat.

~Asia's POV~

My eyes narrowed to have a glimpse at our intruder. Kim stood there a smirk plastered on her pointed face. I gave her a death look and her smirk changed quickly into a deep frown.

"I'll be right back Kouji. You don't mind me borrowing your guest do you?" I asked him still in his arms.

"Of course not"

So I left him my eyes never leaving his. Kim didn't move she just stood there arms crossed.

"I'm not leaving this room and you can't make me," Kim snapped.

My head slowly turned forward to face her. My eyes were livid. I felt my happiness drain from my body and it was replaced by anger.

"Wanna bet?" I hissed.

She opened her mouth to reply. I grabbed her by the ear and pulled her into what I'm sure was her room. I pushed her down on the bed trying to calm myself down a bit but wasn't that successful.

"Let's try to talk about this like civilized people," I said as calmly as I could manage. There was a hint of or else in my voice.

"No"

"And why-"

"I want to fight. I want to prove I'm better than you because I truly am."

"You will never be a match for me. There's only one place you can ever defeat me. and that's in your dreams."

She attacked me as I sat on the bed. With a single hand I defended myself and pushed her against a shelf.

"Is that the best you can do?" I asked sarcastically.

"I'm just getting warmed up!"

"Yeah, alright"

This time when she attacked I knocked her over and held her down on her bed. I twisted her arm softly.

"Let's talk about this."

"NO!"

"Look I'm trying to help you."

"I don't want your help! I'm calling my parents tonight and I'm going back home!" she roared.

"Fine! Go home and cry to your mommy! Maybe she'll give you a hanky to cry on too! Heck she's probably spoil you!"

~Kouji's POV~ I heard them yelling, fighting, everything. I wanted to go in and see what was going on, but that would have been a bad idea.

Finally they both can out. Kim was rubbing her arm. Asia was mumbling to herself angrily and her eyes were still livid.

"Well Kouji I better go. I can't wait to see you again. Oh yeah my family's flying tomorrow back here so visit me okay?" I said kindly.

"Sure"

I hugged him. His arms wound themselves around me as always. He kissed my forehead softly.

"I can't wait to see you again"

"Nor can I"

His eyes were shining down at me like the star in a cloudless, dark sky.

I turned to the computer planning to leave through the digital world when Kim blurted out, "Our Friendship Is Officially Over!"

If her words were meant to hurt me, they didn't. Yeah I'm still sensitive to words, but her words were blocked out from my heart.

"Fine, you go your way and I'll go my way," I said roughly. And with that I left her stunned.
