Ch.10 "SNOW STORMED 3."
"Ange. Ange. Can you hear me? It's Mariana. I need to ask you a big favour," with her eyes closed, Kamari uttered and transmitted the message to Ange who was in her apartment in Colorado.
For the past months, Ange was trying to absorb her research on herbal medicines. First she set out to New York City with Jim abroad the same plane, then after when Jim left to visit Japan during the Christmas holidays, she moved to Colorado so she could erase Willis' and his partner's memories of their encounters with other Digidestines and their Digimon before the battle of Malomyotismon. Now, she's working the night shifts at a fine restaurant as a professional pianist so she can pay the monthly rent. Ironic, isn't it? The richest girl in the world has to work just to earn enough money to pay rent and other bills. Any ordinary, spoiled rich girl would never be seen doing this unless she's gone bankrupted. Then again, she's no ordinary rich girl, she's been brought up differently. Plus, she's not from their world although she was reborn there.
"Mariana? What's the matter? You sound kinda desperate to talk to me. Is something wrong in Japan? It isn't Matt or Aurora, is it?" Ange replied as she closed her eyes to send what she was saying to Kamari.
"No, Ange. It's not that."
"No! It isn't Wishmon, is it?!"
"No. It's not that either. She's right here with me."
"Thank goodness."
"Hey, Ange, it's me, Wishmon. You doing okay in Colorado?" Wishmon interrupted when she closed her eyes and connected hands with Kamari so she could be able to transmit her words to Ange internationally.
"You could say that, Wishmon. So, what's the problem?"
"Well, the problem is that the gate to the Digital World cannot be opened due to the terrible and endless blizzard we're having in Japan."
"That's it, Mariana? What's so bad about that? You don't need to go through the portal to get to the Digi-world. Besides, I'm sure that the blizzard will stop soon, and then, there'll be some sunshine unless it is night already in Japan."
"I agree that I'll be able but the other Digidestines in Japan wouldn't be able to open the gate so they could send their Digimon for recharging. In addition, Davis' and Tai's united team wouldn't be able to help in the Digi-world if they can't destroy some dark pyramids. And if they don't, I'll be off-schedule with the construction."
"Well, that is a problem. So, what can I do for you?" Ange asked Kamari and Wishmon.
"Because your powers enable you to control the cold weather, we want you to get rid of the blizzard in Japan," Wishmon answered.
"What?! You want me to stop the blizzard!"
Knock. Knock. "Who is it?" Ange called out to whoever just knocked on her door. "Sorry, guys, but hold on, okay? There's someone at the door."
"Okay, Ange," they both answered.
"It's room service," a male voice called out in reply to Ange's question. She opened the door and allowed the worker at the hotel to enter, rolling a table of some sort. It must be dinner for Ange in Colorado.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome, Ma'am. If you need anything else, be sure to call us in the hotel."
"Of course, Sir. Thanks for bringing the dinner I ordered. You may go now, Sir."
"All right, then. Enjoy your dinner, Ma'am," he replied as she walked him to the door. As he walked out through the door, she waved goodbye, eagerly to get rid of him, then, someone unexpected bummed into her, of course not literally.
"Ange?" the person asked in disbelief. "What are you doing in Colorado? You're supposed to be in New York."
"Sorry, Mister, but I'm not Ange. You need to get a new pair of reliable glasses when you get your eyes checked. Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Mind your own business! Whatever I'm doing here in Colorado is none of your concern! Good night!" Ange boldly denied his assumption and slammed the down shut at him before he could say anything else.
"Wait! Lady, let me explain," Jim said as he knocked on her door.
She opened the door and hung a do-not-disturb sign on the door knob and said, "I've got a lot of work ahead of me, so go away, Mister! And for the last time, my name isn't Ange!"
"Then, what's your name?" Jim insisted on asking.
"Well, it's not Ange at least! So, good night, Sir, and don't disturb me again," she replied and closed the door.
Thank goodness that's not Ange. She's much more polite than this lady for sure. But she looks so much like her, Jim thought as he took his last glance at the sign. As he returned to his room on the end of the hall, he pondered about the situation again. Because Jim had never seen Ange with her hair tied up before, he couldn't make sure that the rude lady is really Ange since she had most of her hair roughly tied in a ponytail.
"Okay, Mariana, I'll do it."
"Who was that, Ange?"
"It was Jim, Wishmon."
"Jim? In Colorado?"
"Let's just get on with it, Mariana. You know that something could go wrong if there's a mistake especially when it's against nature."
"Right!"
Ange chanted out loud:
By magic,
Let the blizzard be stopped,
As begged and pleaded by the Japanese!
With the storm in its slumber,
Every difficulty caused,
Shall be back to sleep!
After chanting it thrice, she flickered her fingers and said, "Done." Instantly the snow storm in Japan vanished.
"You're right, Ange. It is done," Wishmon said as she looked out the window in Kamari's room with amazement.
"You did it, Ange. I never doubted you for a second!" Kamari explained.
"Okay, guys, I've got to go now. I still haven't eaten dinner yet and my performance is in an hour."
"All right, Ange. Thanks for everything. Bye."
"Bye, guys. Talk to both of you later."
