Chapter 3
*Authors Note: I'm sorry I didn't get the chapter up sooner. Most of it can be blamed on my shear laziness; the other half can be blamed on a few things we ordered from Amazon.com last week. One of these two things arrived on the 21 of June that I spent until that Wednesday finishing chough *Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix* cough. The other was three dvd's, one of which has voice actors that have appeared once in a show that most of the people reading Digimon Fan Fics watch. How may guesses would you need to figure this out? There are at least thirteen *most likely more* voice actors that have done stuff on Digimon The series (and movie) is called Cowboy Bebop (after their ship. Check it out sometime if you ever get the chance.

The night had come to a close. It was probably time to get some sleep. Yet I couldn't, Edward was still awake. I was going to do anything I could willingly do to make him stay and fight with us.
"We took a bongo from the scene. And we went to Theed to see the Queen. We all wound up on Tatooine. That's where we found this boy..." Edward sang. I recognized the song. It was one of my favorites by Weird Al. It sounded really good, even with out the interments. I sat their silently and listen, he never noticed I was there.
"They interview the kid. Oh, training they forbid. Because Yoda sensed in him much fear. And Qui-Gon said 'Now listen here. Just stick it in your pointy ear. I still will teach this boy'." It seemed hard for me to believe that under that tabby cat style he was a pussy cat.
"And I was singin' ... My my this here Anakin guy. May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry. And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye. Sayin' 'Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi. Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi'
"We were singin' ..." I knew the lyrics and decided to jump in with him. "My my this here Anakin guy. May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry. And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye. Sayin' 'Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi'"
"You know you're a very good singer." I told him after we finished out the song.
"Thanks, you're not half that bad yourself."
"Nah, I suck, that's why I play an interment instead, haha."
"This world is beautiful isn't it? Once you overlook the buildings." He said looking out into the darkness on the back porch.
"I guess; if that will make you stay?"
"No Joan, you'll need to do more then that to get me to stay."
"Fine! Then where were we. Oh yeah, if Lokimon gets through the portal he will destroy your family, your friends, and most likely even that certain girl in your life!" I said to him fiercely.
"My family life sucks, I have no friends, and the girls don't even notice me." I suddenly felt sorry for him. He didn't have anything worth defending at home. This would be tougher then I thought.
"It's that bad huh?"
"Yes Joan, I don't have any reason to stop him. Well I might try to save my family. I'd be saddened if they died, but I don't know if I care any more. The whole damn world is nuts. Humans want to kill each other for oil. People in your country want to nuke mine. We destroy the environment without a second thought. Do humans deserve to live anymore? Maybe we should just let him destroy us."
"Edward, I think in some ways I agree. But his destroying us is beside the point. If we can stop him then we can show the world that if two completely different species can live together then so can the same specie. Help us Edward, help us and maybe we can all change the world."
"And when I get back, what will happen to me then. My home life will still go down the drain. The girls will pass me by with out a second glance. And friends, I won't have any..."
"We'll be your friends."
"I don't know Joan; that sounds like a bribe to me." He turned and walked back into the house. I watched and felt a nagging feeling. I don't know what it was. But I think my heart was trying to tell me something.

A great feast lay before them. Yet the two could not eat. Could not drink or feel anything. All they were, all they had become was a chilling cold, that couldn't communicate with anyone except the other ghosts around them. Many times the two felt like heaving if they could.
They stared, mouths gaping at the feast. It was full of platters with fish. Fruits, vegetables, soups, and many other things littered other platters sitting on the table. Yet they knew none of their friends would be eating these things. For at the head of that table sat, none other then Lokimon.
Kenta cursed under his breath. With all that had happened in his life it was the first time he had ever wanted to kill someone. To him, the Sovereign and Deva's looked tame to Lokimon.
He was fearless. Earlier today he had fought off at least ten Digimon without a scratch. This skirmish lasted minutes. But the damage would take days to clean up.
"My friends and loyal warriors. Sit down and eat your hearts out. Do not fear, we will have enough food to last us. We will have even more once we enter the city. Their walls seem to be of soft wood, not hard stone." Cheers erupted from many in the room.
A warrior raised his flagon in the air. "I propose a toast!" He yelled as others began to raise their flagons too. "To Lokimon, with him in the lead we will soon crush the Sovereign. What they have done to the world will soon be undone by us."
"To Lokimon!" They acclaimed, various juices, wines, and water flowed from the top of their glasses.
"Right now our spies have penetrated the inner circle of the Sovereigntys and Krupkeras. By the end of the seventh human month we will be dinning in their Great Hall! Enjoy your selves tonight! For in three weeks our feast will be even bigger!" The warriors cheered even louder at Lokimons announcement. Kenta moved behind Lokimon and looked over his shoulder.
"You will not win so easily. Our friends are stronger then you think," he whispered. A shiver went up Lokimons spine as if he heard. "In three weeks, you will be stopped. In four weeks the only people dinning in the Great Hall will be the Sovereign." Kenta turned to his friend. "We must find a way to warn the others!"
Kazu nodded as his friend walked up to him. And in words unspoken they both turned to run. Neither of the two ever grew winded in the long five mile run back to the city.
