Chapter 9: Night Visit

Ianumon

           I was awoken by a strange sound. I blinked and yawned and looked around. There was nothing there so I let myself drift off back to sleep.

           "HEY! COME BACK HERE YOU LITTLE THEIF!!" Came a voice waking me up from my slumber. I quickly realized the voice belonged to Kimamon. I picked myself up off the ground to see that Jessamon and Kimamon where running after a light green digimon with darker green spots. He had a pouch slung over his side and seemed to be faster then the other two.

           "Wait! We just want to talk! Please come back! We wont hurt you!" Jessamon called out.

           The green digimon kept running. I ran after them still a bit confused, "What's going on?" I asked when I caught up to my two friends.

 "That little rat stole our supplies." Kimamon growled.

 "HEY!!! GET BACK HERE!" I shouted.

           Suddenly the green digimon tripped over a large overturned tree while looking back at us. He fell to the ground with a heart wrenching "THUD!".

           We finally caught up with him and surrounded him.

           "Give us back our stuff!" I said with eyes narrowed.

           "It doesn't belong to you!" Kimamon added.

           "I… I… I'm sorry…" He replied shaking.

           "Well you should be!" Jessamon scolded.

           The green digimon slipped of the pack and we fished out our supplies from it.

           "Why did you steal our things?" I asked.

           "I… I needed some food." He replied.

           "Well why didn't you just ask?" Jessamon said with a giggle.

           "Because I didn't think you'd say yes. No one ever does." He said sadly.

           "Come on kid," Kimamon said helping him up, "Your coming to have breakfast with us."

           The green digimon smiled and we headed back to our camping spot.

           We got there and began to eat. Our new found friend looked as if he hadn't had a good meal in a while. I smiled at him and he smiled back between bites.

           "So what's your name anyway?" Jessamon asked.

           "I'm… *Munch, munch* Jayjmon. *Munch* I'm a data type digimon with the attack Stealth Claw." He said with mouth full of food.

           We all laughed and introduced ourselves and then continued eating.

Kimamon

After breakfast it was time for us to leave.

           "Sorry Jayjmon but we need to be on our way." Ianumon said.

           "But we where having so much fun. Why do you have to go so soon?" Jayjmon asked sulking.

           "We're on a journey! We're going to stop those nasty evil digimon!" Jessamon beamed.

           "Really?!" He asked.

           "Really, really." I said exasperated. This kid was going to be trouble. I could see it now.

           "Can I help? You did me a favor now I want to do you a favor." He begged.

           "That's ok Jayjmon. We like helping people. You don't have to repay us." Ianumon replied.

           "Yes I do. It's thieves code of honor." He said smiling like he was proud of himself.

           "Bein a thief is nothin to be proud of kid." I said to him.

           "It's the only way I have to survive." He says as his ears droop down.

           "Can we take him with us?!" Jessamon asked in her normal perky voice. The one I was getting to hate more then the virus digimon.

           "We can't take a thief on a quest like this. He'll get us into more trouble then we're already in." I said glaring at Jessamon.

           "We could use all the help we can get Kimamon." Ianumon said looking over to me.

           "I was right when we met. You are insane!" I said exasperated.

           Jayjmon looked upset and turned to walk away, "I know when I'm not wanted."

           "No! Don't go!" Ianumon shouted, "Kimamon. He wants to help. Lets give him a chance."

           "Why?! Why should we let this little thief leech us for all we've got?!" I growled.

           "How do you know that's what he'll do?!" Jessamon growled back.

           "He's a THIEF for god sake!" I yelled back.

           "SO…" Jessamon started but was interrupted by Ianumon.

           "STOP FIGHTING!" He shouted angrily.

           Jayjmon looked back from where he was stunned. Jessamon and me where speechless.

           "We are on a mission here, and we need all the help we can get. We do NOT need to be arguing amongst ourselves." He says sternly.

           We nod our heads in agreement including Jayjmon.

           "He stays." Ianumon says looking over at Jayjmon.

           Jayjmon just grinned like a little kid.

Jayjmon

           It looked as if I was finally going to do some real good. Like I'd always dreamed when I was little. I grinned at my new found friends. Kimamon didn't seem to like me much but I would change that. Soon I'd make her a friend. Jessamon and Ianumon seemed to like me though and I was glad of that. They where the only friends I'd ever had.

           I remembered why I'd become a thief. I'd been alone for such a long time and when I met up with Malo Davimon I thought I'd found a friend. Malo Davimon was a thief and taught me how to fend for myself. Then when Chaos Leighamon arrived Malo Davimon ditched me for her and her friends. I was still bitter about that. Ever since then I've been a thief. Taking what I needed to survive.

           I wondered to myself if maybe these new friends of mine might not do the same thing. Leave me when they where done with me. I guess Jessamon noticed my distress.

           "Hey Jayjmon. You ok?" She asked in concern.

 "Ya, I'm ok. Just thinking about something." I said smiling at her. These guys seemed different in some way. I brushed the thought away. These guys would never do that to me and I knew it.

           "Come on team. We got to go now." Ianumon said as he began to walk off.

           I followed behind him smiling.

3rd Person

The group walked on with Kimamon once again in the lead with the other three in behind talking.

           "I'm really grateful to all of you. It's nice to have friends." Jayjmon smiled.

           "Stick with us and you'll go places!" Jessamon cheered.

           The three of them laughed and Kimamon scowled from the front.

           "You one of us now, and that's how it gonna stay." Ianumon said kindly.

           He smiled to himself. The team was really starting to become a strong fighting force. Soon no one would be able to stop them. They where a team... a team of friends. They would look out for each other and help each other our in times of need.

           "Pummel Peck!" Came a voice suddenly. They group turned in time to see several small flying object coming at them at full speed. They dodged quickly and recovered themselves.

           They looked to their new opponent. It was Kiwimon. A nasty bird digimon who didn't even have wings.

           Jayjmon growled at the enemy, "Dagger Slash!" The shouted as the swiped at the air sending what looked like light beam slashes at Kiwimon. Kiwimon dodged and laughed.

           "Is that all you got?" He said with a yawn.

           "Blue Beam!" Ianumon shouted spitting out a beam of blue energy at the enemy.

           Kiwimon jumped aside and laughed again, "Oops... Too slow!"

           "Bright Beam!"

           "Kima Claw!" Jessamon and Kimamon shouted their attacked sending them at Kiwimon.

           He jumped but Kimamon came at him with her attack slashing at him. The two fell to the ground. Kimamon landed safely but Kiwimon landed on his side. He quickly got up.

           "Nice one but I'm still here!" He growled.

           "Stealth Claw!" Jayjmon shouted from his hidding place behind Kiwimon. He jumped out of the bushes clawing Kiwimon with his sharp claws.

           Kiwimon winced in pain as Jayjmon's claws swept his side.

           "Give up Kiwimon. Your no mach for us!" Jayjmon beamed.

           "Grrr! Not a chance! Pummel Peck!" He shouted as he spit out tiny birds from his beak. The birds hit Jayjmon and he fell to the ground.

           "Jayjmon!" Jessamon shouted.

           "Blue Claw!" Ianumon yelled in fury. He slashed at Kiwimon but Kiwimon jumped out of the way once again.

           "Kima Claw!" Kimamon shouted just as Kiwimon landed from jumping away from Ianu's attach. She slashed at him and he fell to the ground with a yelp.

Kimamon

I slashed at Kiwimon and he fell to the ground with yelp. I stood above his with my eyes narrowed.

           "Go back to your master and tell her tha we are comin for her." I growled.

           "Y...Y...Yes mam..." He stammered shaking in fear. He got up slowly and backed away before darting away.

"Good riddance!" Jessamon said.

           "You did great Jayjmon. Are you ok?" Ianumon asked.

           "Ya I'm ok," He said getting up off the ground, "Uh... Thanks Kimamon. You really saved me out there."

"I just got rid of the enemy. Saving you wasn't even a side thought." I said in a serious voice.

           "Well thank you anyway." He smiled to me.

"Come on lets get going. We can still go a ways before nightfall." Ianumon said.

           We all started to follow him as he walked the way we had been going before.

           As we walked on I smiled to him. I guess he isn't that bad after all. I thought to myself. He might be a thief but he's an ok Digimon.
