Samantha Part 3

Samantha sat curled up in a ball on her bed. Her brothers kept on bothering her and her mother wasn't home from work yet.

The little girl of four got tears in her eyes. "I-I want to go home," she sobbed.

This wasn't Samantha's home and this wasn't her real family. Samantha didn't even know how she got transported here in the first place.

"Tweet?" Samantha looked at her bird, Peril. It was short for Peril was blue. "Oh, Peril," Samantha sniffled, "I don't want to stay here."

Peril began to sing a soft, familier song. Peril was her real bird.

Samantha grasped a heart locket on a gold chain around her neck. She opened it. A melody began playing. It was the same tune of a song her mother used to sing to her. Peril's singing and the melody combined made a beutiful sound.

In the middle was a smaller golden heart. Samantha pressed it. Her mother's voice started to sing the words to the song. Samantha fell asleep, listening to her mother's song.

At the Inoue residense, Yolei was having trouble concentrating on her homework.

She finally put it away and stared up at the gray couds in the sky. "Rain today," Poromon said.

Yolei sighed. She was thinking about Samantha. Samantha had been to the Digital World twice now, and both times she did the same thing.

It was her one and only favourite thing to do whenever she was there: drive the Digimon Emperor out of his mind.

But that wasn't the thing that worried her. The last time they were there, something very wierd had happened.

Her hair colour changed to purple and her eyes to dark violet. She looked much like Ken.

Samantha woke up at her house. Her hair and eyes were back to normal.

Her brothers were making so much noise. It was obvious that her mother wasn't home yet.

Samantha sighed and walked out of her room. "Hey, you little bimbo!" Eddy said. "Can I ask you something?!" Dudley asked, "why don't you just get lost?!?"

Samantha would have given them her usual glare but today, she was already in a sad mood. She sniffled and ran out of the house, slamming the door behind her.

Eddy and Dudley looked at eachother. "Uh oh," they said.

Samantha ran along the street. She didn't seem to notice that it was raining hard.

She ran into an alley. She took out her locket and pressed the golden heart. Nothing happened. "The power must not be back," she guessed.

She started to cry. "I don't want to stay here anymore!" she cried. She ran out again.

She kept on running until she reached the computer store. She stared into the window.

A computer was giving off a strange light. "What?" she asked.

Her locket began to glow and she got sucked right into the computer.

* * *

Samantha opened her eyes. It was still raining. The last thing she remembered was getting sucked into the computer.

A green blob ran by. "Hey, I know what that is!" Samantha exclaimed, "it's a Digimon. I must be in the Digi-world. What should I do? I wish Yolei were here. She'd know exactly what to do to get out of here! Why did it have to be raining here, too?"

The wind picked up as more tears rolled down the four-year-old's face.

* * *

"Someone's here," the Digimon Emperor said. "Who?" Wormmon asked.

"He or she is not a Digi-destined," Ken replied, "damn! It's the little spore!!!" "Samantha?" Wormmon asked.

"Yes, Samantha," Ken replied.

He got a picture of the little girl on the screen and gasped. "She's in trouble. It looks like she collapsed. Get Airdramon! We have to go get her." "Yes, sir."

* * *

Samantha opened her eyes and got greeted by really bright lights. She was in a king-sized bed with a blanket over her.

"Are you okay?" a famillier voice asked. It was Wormmon. "I think so," Samantha answered, "hey, am I in the big, brown building again?"

"Yes, you are." Ken appeared beside Wormmon. "I wanna go home," Samantha said. Ken sat down on a chair next to the bed. "Get comfortable, 'cause you aren't leaving this place anytime soon. The storm has let out and you have got to answer some very important questions," he said.

Samantha frowned. "Fine!" she snapped. "Yolei told me that she's only known you for eleven months and that you appeared out of no where," Ken said, "what's the deal?" "That's a secret," Samantha said flatly.

"Well, you better let me in on your little secret or else," Ken snapped. Samantha looked at him throught the corner of her eye and smiled.

"What?!" Ken asked. Wormmon thought it was time to get the hell out of there so he crawled out as quickly and quietly as possible.

"I'll tell, but you owe me!" Samantha grinned. Why did I have to be the one to get stuck with this?! Aren't there any other villians out there in the world?! Ken thought.

"Fine," he grumbled, "what?" "You have to get me ice-cream!" Samantha said, "with sprinkles and chocolate and a strawberry on top." "Fine, but if you don't answer the question soon, I'll turn you into ice-cream!" Ken snapped.

"I don't belong here," Samantha said as she looked away, "I'm from the future. I got transported here when my Dad's computer blew up. It's fixed, but they want me to stay here because evil Digimon are capturing the future Digi-destined."

Ken pretended not to be surprised. "What about your hair?" Ken asked, "I wasn't dreaming when I saw it flash purple the last time you were here and your eyes, too! They're my colour! Mine, mine, MINE!! Who gave you permission to copy?!" Samantha stuck out her tongue for a second. "They're my Dad's eye colour!" she said, "and he gave me permission to copy- I think."

Ken frowned. "What's your last name?" he asked, "it's obvious you're not going to tell me who your parents are, so at least tell me your last name!" "Why?" Samantha asked. "Just tell!" Ken ordered.

"Ichijouji, but I don't see what you're going to do about it," Samantha said. Ken was in complete horror. He was related to the little brat!! But, wait! Wasn't she from the future?

He hid the surprised expression and said, "you're wearing some kind of disquise!" "I am," Samantha answered. "Well, take it off!" Ken ordered.

Samantha's hair turned purple and her eyes turned dark violet. "Happy?!" she grumbled. "Oh, yes, very happy," Ken replied, "tell me more about your dad."

He was getting suspicious. "He's a genius, he loves to play soccer, he's good at it, too. He does all this stuff with the computer that I don't about and that's it," Samantha replied.

"What's his name?" Ken asked. Samantha looked at him, suspiciously. "I do not remember," she answered.

"What's his hair colour?" Ken asked. "Navy blue or violet," Marlene replied. Ken slumped into the chair. "I'm convinced," he muttered.

She's my daughter and there is absoulutley nothing I can do about it! I can't believe that the little spore got transported here from the future! Ken thought, oh, well, look on the bright side. I get to send to her room, whenever I want. Mind as well have fun with this.

"Your mother?" Ken asked with a slight smile. "My mother is not athletic, she also does all the confusing stuff with the computer. She met my Dad when they were kids. She's really smart, but not as smart as my Dad. She has reddish, brown eyes and lavender coloured hair and that's all I remember."

"Okay, get some rest," Ken said. "I don't want to," Samantha argued. The little girl got teary eyed.

"What's wrong?" Ken asked. "I don't like the past!" Samantha sobbed, "I really want to go home!"

"Why?" Ken asked. "The people I'm staying with don't like me," the little girl said, "the boys are always picking on me because they are older. Yolei and you are the only people I like around here."

Huh?! Ken asked. Samantha started to cry. Not the loud annoying one, but one that could reach the good side of anybody. One that showed she was lost and the last thing she needed was trouble.

Ken's expression softened. He put an arm around her. "Are you okay?" he whispered. Samantha was soon crying into his lap. "Go ahead and cry," Ken said, as he stroked her purple hair, "you'll feel better."

* * *

"WHAT?!?!?" Yolei shrieked into the telephone, "you told her to get lost?!?! Dudley, how could you?! She's your sister!! Is your mother home?!"

"No. We don't know what to do," Dudley replied on the other end of the line.

"I'll tell you exactly what you are going to do!" Yolei shouted, "you are going to tell your mother exactly what happened!!" She slammed down the phone and grabbed her coat.

Poromon hopped onto her shoulder. "I'm coming, too!" it said.

Yolei rushed out of the house and ran down the street. "Where could she be?" she asked herself.

After half an hour, Yolei decided to go to the Digi-world and try to figure out where she might've gone.

She rushed to school and managed to get into the computer lab. She took out her digi-vice and opened the portal. "DIGI-PORT, OPEN!" she commanded. She got sucked in.

* * *

Ken walked out of the room. "Is she alright?" Wormmon asked. Ken nodded. "She's asleep," he answered, "she's not happy here. Trust me to do something like get the computer to blow up and send kids through time portals."

"It's not your fault," Wormmon answered, "you couldn't help it if she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. I knew there was something familier about her, but I didn't think that she'd turn out to be who she really is. Do you know who her mother is?"

"Do you anybody with lavender hair and reddish, brown eyes?" Ken asked. "Well, master, you may not like what you are about to hear," the worm said, "but the only person that comes into my mind is Yolei. The description fits and you might've noticed, but she acts very much like her."

Ken stared at him for a second. "Could be," he finally said. "Why do you want to know anyway?" Wormmon asked.

"What makes you think I'm interested about that?" Ken snapped. Wormmon shrugged.

Ken grumbled. He turned around and walked away. Ken walked into the control room and sat down in his chair. A picture suddenly appeared on the middle monitor.

"Who the damn are you?!" Ken asked.

It was a woman in her early twenties. She had green hair, dark green eyes and was wearing a lab coat over a pink dress which came up to her knees. She was smiling and had tons of make on. "My name is Fima," she said, "I'm a scientist- from the future."

"How often are people travelling here from the future these days?" Ken asked. "Oh, me and some other scientists are just here to get something and go back, emperor," Fima replied, "you see, that little something we want is inside your base. So, why don't I just send someone over to pick it up. You can just hand the little spore over and we'll be on our way."

"What are you talking about?" Ken asked. "Samantha," Fima answered.

"Er, let me think," Ken said, sarcastically, "no." "Excuse me?" Fima asked, slightly annoyed. "I have a few rules to follow," Ken said, "and handing my future daughter over to someone I don't know anything about, just because she gets on my nerves? I just don't do that."

"Hey, this is the only easy way to get this done!" Fima said, "if you want to do it the hard way, we're more than happy to oblige. I'll give you one last chance!"

"I'd raise her allowance first," Ken mumbled. Fima snarled as the picture went away.

* * *

Yolei walked on. "We should find some kind of shelter first!" Hawkmon said, "this storm is too harsh." "That's my point!" Yolei answered, "what if Samantha is still out here somewhere?" "What if she isn't?" Hawkmon whispered as they kept going.

Just then, an image of Ken appeared. Yolei gasped. "What're you doing here?!" he asked. "Samantha's missing!" Yolei told him.

"If you want to see her, then just come to the base," Ken told her. The image faded.

"What do you want to do, Yolei?" Hawkmon asked. "Let's go," Yolei answered, "I've grown too attached to her to let her be in any kind of danger. I'd give up my life if I have to!"

Yolei found the base and ran in. She was greeted by Ken. "Hello, there," he said. "Where's Samantha?!" Yolei asked.

"Temper, temper," Ken said, shaking his head, "follow me. I found her unconcious around here. She woke up and I got her to tell me a few things."

"What did you do?" Yolei asked. She was worried that Ken might've hurt her. "I promised her ice-cream," he replied.

Hawkmon and Yolei face-faulted. Yolei entered the room. Samantha was still sleeping. She sat down on the chair.

"I'm glad she's okay," Yolei said. She felt tears coming to her eyes. "I was so worried," she said as they streamed down her cheeks.

She felt a gentle hand on her shoulder and turn around to face the emperor. She flew into his arms and started crying on his shoulder. "Sshh," he said, "it's alright."
