"What brings you to Diga Town any ways?" Mimi asked as she folded some cloth nearby. Shortly after Yamato and Taichi had yet another fight (Well, that's one way to show you care…) a girl named Miyako informed us that Ken was off somewhere with some boy named Daisuke. We couldn't get another guide because they either only knew the tour route, or they didn't work here. As any person can see now, we had to wait. You know what? We STILL haven't had any food! Look, a guy can only take so much in one day and currently I'm on my limit!
"Ah, well we haven't had anything to eat in a long time, and we really need a place to sleep and pull ourselves back together." Izumi explained. You forgot to mention the fact we also need a break from those evil Legendary Warriors, but of course if you say that we'd unnerve these people, and we don't want that, now do we? Actually, it's very tempting… seeing as we need NUTRITION! Wow, I'm really hung up on food right now that's pretty sad for my personality type.
"You must have come from Trader's Village." Mimi replied, and scrunched her nose up. "Horrible place… especially that man Jack. You should know, you came from there, ne?" She continued a scowl visible on her face speaking that name. Yes, Jack is horrible…
"Yeah, dodgy place." Junpei agreed. You know, if Mimi doesn't like that place then odds are everyone else who works here is against slavery… Abololitionists, yay!
"You guys slave traders?" Mimi pressed upon us, her eyes narrowed. No, never. First of all, I disapprove. Second of all, well you should already know. If you don't, too bad.
"So, you're just a group of wondering children who WENT into Trader's Village, and you aren't slave traders?" Mimi asked, standing up to her full height, hands placed harshly on her hips. Whoa, where is she going with this!?
"Uhm… yeah?" Tomoki replied weakly.
"With the Dark Lord on the loose, killing any wanderers he spots with his minions?" Mimi continued, eyes narrowed even more darkly. She slowly looked over all of us, taking in each expression and bit of body language to find her answer before we spoke. What is she getting at? Whoa, wait is she accusing us of working for Lord Cherubi!? Oh, hell no.
"Well, we're pretty stupid… and besides that we have to run an errand." Izumi explained, smiling with look as if she was getting unnerved. Mimi snorted, and began to walk around us and stopped next to Takuya.
"Oh, then I take it your running an errand for Jack, because I know this is his slave." Mimi said harshly, and Takuya turned a light pink color. Well, that explained why he was so quiet, he knew people in this town would most likely recognize him. "Yah, he's sent people with this boy before, and they came here for a guide to find the place where the Dark Lord's men hide, to get orders. I'm not stupid, you can't trick me." She spat.
"Actually…" Takuya whispered and Mimi jumped, probably having never heard him speak before. In fact, he wasn't permitted to, which only doubled her surprise. Hahah… "They aren't running an errand for Jack, and I don't belong to him anymore." Mimi was at a loss for words, and she held one very puzzled expression.
"Uh… huh?" Mimi asked dumbly. "Okay then, what's going on!" She asked, a look of pure loss on her.
"We're running an errand from Destiny Walls, and we needed a place to rest for a short time, and lucky us it was Trader's Village. While we were there, well we heard about fights against the leader Jack and you could get whatever you want from him. Wanting to ask him a few questions, because we weren't sure for how to take care of our errand we challenged him. Heheh, we didn't know what we were getting into, luckily Kouji won." Izumi explained a bit too quickly. Mimi raised a brow then shrugged.
"So, instead of telling the half truth, how about the whole? If you really are from Destiny Walls, then I know exactly who you are." Mimi said, and smirked. "You're the Legendary Warriors they sent out to stop the Dark Lord, are you not? You are the only people they will allow to step foot out of their homeland during these times. Besides, from what I've seen that boy do, only a fellow Warrior can beat him." Mimi added and had a satisfied smirk on her face when we stared at her in shock. "Oh, and Tomoki your father sent me a message to let him know if you got here safely, heheh." Here we all face-faulted, she knew all along!? Must not kill…
"Wh-what! How's everything going on there?" Tomoki asked automatically, when hearing the mention of someone receiving a message from his father. I don't blame him, as prince he was bound to be worried about his future kingdom.
"I'm not sure, I presumably got it shortly after you set out, so I'm not entirely sure. Though when I got it, everything was good." Mimi shrugged. She sat back down again and continued with folding the pieces of clothing. My limit, having been reached my eyebrow began to twitch as I held myself back from strangling the girl. Well, seeing as she knows who we are, can we PLEASE get some food now!? No, I will not ask because first off it'll hurt my pride, and second off because it's not like me to give into starvation so easily. It will not win I tell you!
"You have anything we can eat?" Junpei asked, as his stomach growled. "If I don't get something to much on soon I'm going to die!" He continued dramatically, and Mimi just sweat-dropped at his feeble attempts.
"No, when we're hungry we go on break and make a short miles walk to the nearest food place. Actually, I wouldn't even call it food…" Here she stuck her tongue out, then replaced it back into her mouth and sighed when reaching a rather complicated outfit to fold.
"No food?" Izumi asked, and began to give Mimi one powerful puppy-dog look. Now, very few people hold resistance to it, but if you do then by golly aren't you the lucky one? It took me years to build one up… of course losing my brother helped out to, but that's besides the point. Mimi smiled sweetly at Izumi's look, and just when we thought Mimi would give in…
"Nope." Mimi said, and scratched her head trying to figure out how to fold the clothes. Tomoki took a gentle sigh, seeing there was no other choice. Now, because of his innocence, he has yet to understand the full meaning of pride, and besides that he grew up around older children. His eyes rolled in the back on his head and he… 'fainted'. Mimi saw and yelped. "Is he okay!?" She asked worriedly, and checked over him. Takuya gave me a look that said 'He do this often' and I sweat-dropped. He saw through the act? Note to self; never pull a fake on Takuya…
"I'm not sure." Izumi said and bent down to check on him.
"Aww, poor kid. Must have gone too long without something to eat." Junpei put in. Mimi, being to worried about Tomoki didn't look too deeply on this, and ran off to get something for Tomoki. "Nice one Tomoki." He whispered, and the said boy gave a short smile before returning to the blank look. Takuya had a look of disapproval for our choice to get something to eat, and although I couldn't blame him right now I'm too busy enjoying the thought of food. Though no one knew this, as my face was neutral. Mwahahah, what you think I can think all this and not keep a straight face? Please, I've mastered this a long time ago.
"Ken's here." Taichi called from the front, before a loud yelping noise was heard. We hadn't expected this… if Tomoki gets up Mimi would be very mad she got tricked, but if he doesn't how would we catch our guide? Huh? No… no… NOO!
"Kouji… go see what's going on." Izumi said, and motioned for the front. I glared at her and walked to the front, but Takuya stayed behind. Aww, why is it when I want him to follow he doesn't? Oh well, I have a job to do.
"Daisuke, stop trying to jump onto the desk." Yamato said with a vein bulging in anger at one boy. The boy had spiky brown hair, was around that girl Hikari's age and his hair was shorter than Taichi's. He too had dark brown eyes, and there was so much resemblance I was unsure if they were brothers or not. Another boy shook his head at the boy, and he had blue eyes with straight indigo hair. He had the look of intelligence on him, but kindness also was shown.
"Awe, Yama-kun why not?" The boy whined. Yamato froze, and glared threateningly at the boy.
"Don't call me that Daisuke!!!" Yamato hissed, and the boy laughed nervously.
"Oh, be nice Yama-kun." Taichi said with a smirk as he helped up Daisuke. Yamato glared at him, but it wasn't quite as deathly.
"You're the luckiest person in the world, you know that?" Yamato growled, and started to fix a few fallen papers.
"Yes… it's because you love me don't you?" Taichi said in a baby voice, and hugged Yamato, who sighed and threw the papers in the air, seeing he would be getting nothing done any time soon.
"Well, you are all one very happy family." I say with a small smirk, and they all turn to look at me. Taichi then laughed and slid down Yamato's arms and got quickly back up.
"Glad to see you noticed." Daisuke said with a cheesy grin. Yamato glared at him, and he began to slowly back away. I never thought I'd meet another person alive who was as touchy as I was, if not more. I'd say more, I don't snap at people as much as he does, no matter how tempting.
"Oh yah! Ken, this is… you know I never got your name." Taichi said as he scratched his chin.
"It's Kouji." I say bluntly, not really caring. I just want something to eat and some time to relax… maybe some to even talk to Takuya… huh? Oh wow, my mind wasn't kidding, woohoo no more migraines!
"Okay then! Ken that's Kouji he's one of the five kids that came here for a guide! Now avoid Mimi because they tricked her…" Here Taichi winked at me, and although I shown no reaction I was surprised he knew. "…and be sure to take show them where they need to go, all right?" The elder explained. The boy nodded his head, and I guess that was Ken.
"Huh? Oh hey Taichi-san, can I come too? Please?" Daisuke asked and got on his knees in a begging manner. He looked up hopefully at Taichi who shook his head no. "Awe, why not?" Daisuke whined.
"Too many reasons to list." Yamato answered to Taichi, and they both sweat-dropped. Grinning Taichi shrugged and glomped Yamato, again. That blonde seemed so very tolerant with Taichi I noticed… then again he did seem to really care for the other, you could see it in his eyes.
"How about you get the others, and we can hurry it up." Ken said and smiled gently. Nodding my head, I went back to find Junpei, Izumi, Tomoki, and Takuya all staring out the window. I walked over frowning to see what was wrong and was deeply disturbed upon what I saw. This… this could not be…
A/N: Oh come on, you already know what they see, I don't really see the point of leaving it like this… but then again, you probably DON'T know. Because it is not what you don't think! That made no sense but ah well, I don't care the ant problem in my room seems to be gone. ^_^ My room smells funny… probably because it's clean. Yet again, another crappy chapter but oh well. v_v Hey, do you guys want me to update more, update less, or leave it as it is? You are all so nice to read and review, so I want to make this story as enjoyable as possible! Oh, and there's some Takouji fluff next chapter… unbelievable isn't it? XD
