Angel of Light: I GOT A NEW IDEA FOR A FIC YAY!!!!!!!!

Cody: I think they can see that.

Angel of Light: I'm just stating the obvious. Anyways, on with the fic!

Cody: Hold on a minute!

Angel of Light: What? Sorry, I stole your line. Okay, you can say it.

Cody: I don't care about that, and stop acting innocent! You know you didn't say it, so I will!

Angel of Light: NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Cody: She doesn't own Digimon. She doesn't own you either, contrary to what she may think in her twisted little mind. Now, on with the fic.

Angel of Light: *pouts in a corner*

Note: The story starts with the characters slightly OOC, but It's my fic, and I'm the author.

Couples: Takari (duh!) and small Taiora, Joumi (I think that's how you spell it…) and maybe more.

Tai, Sora, Matt =27

Mimi, Joe =28

Takeru, Hikari, Davis = 23

Yolie, Ken = 24

Hikari walked through the halls of the rebel base. Usually, she would walk through here with no destination in particular, but today was different. She was headed to the main office, where her brother, the rebel leader, wanted to see her. She knew it was a business matter, as he would have told her somewhere else if it was a different matter.

Her heels clicked on the floors as she walked. People knew that she was on her way to the boss, as she only walked that fast and with that much determination when she was. Today, no one stopped her to talk.

She reached the door, and pressed the buzzer. A female voice came over the intercom. To no one's surprise, it was Sora.

Sora was her brother's wife and secretary. You weren't allowed to see him if you didn't see her first.

"Hello?"

"Hi Sora, it's Hikari."

"Oh, one sec, I'll open the door. Taichi has been waiting for you."

A buzzer sounded, and Hikari opened the door. She was greeted by Sora's smiling face.

"Good morning. I don't think he's doing anything, so you can go in. If he is doing something, I'm sure you'll be fine. He'd never shoot you."

Hikari smiled at the remark, and went through the door behind Sora.

Newcomers would think this a joke, but it wasn't. If you weren't invited and you walked into the office, you risked getting killed. There were few people that he wouldn't shoot, Sora and Hikari being two of them. It also depended on his mood.

"Taichi?"

"Oh, Hikari, hi. I was just doing some paperwork. It's so boring, but somebody's got to do it. Please, have a seat."

Hikari sat down on a chair on the other side of his desk, across from him.

"So, how's my little sister been doing?" He said with a smirk.

"I'm not little anymore, Tai."

"I know, just like to bother you. That's what siblings are for, right?"

"I'll remember that. Anyways, what do you want me to do?" she asked.

"What? Am I not allowed to talk with family? Why do you assume that I want you to do something for me?"

"Because that's the only reason you call me here. We can talk any other time, but we talk business in the office."

He threw his hands up in defeat. "Alright, alright. You got me. You're right. I do have something that I need you to do.

"As you know, the enemy knows very well where our base is, and we still have no clue where theirs is. My guess is that it's underground somewhere. In order to in this war, we need to find the base. The only reason they're hiding, is because they're weak, insolent fools. They know very well that if we were to find them, it would be over for them.

"Anyways, I've thought this through for a while, and I think that it would be a good idea to send someone in undercover."

"And that's why I'm here, isn't it." she stated.

"Precisely. I need you to find the base, and report back to us, without being discovered. It will be dangerous, but I know you'll do it well."

"But, why me?"

"Because you fit the job description. I needed a young, beautiful maiden." he smirked, she rolled her eyes.

"You're going to pull a D.I.D."

"What?!"

"A Damsel in Distress."

"Yes, yes I know that, but why?"

"Because. I hear that they have some patrols around here, and I hear from my sources that they are getting closer. I know these people quite well, and if they were to stumble upon someone who needed help, they would bring them back to get it."

"But I'm a rebel, Taichi. Reformists hate rebels. They'd never take me in."

"That's why they won't find out that you are one. You'll fake that you've been attacked by the rebels, and they'll see you as an ally."

"Okay, so I'm supposed to run out screaming 'help help, the rebels are chasing me! Help!' come on Tai, they're not stupid. They'll realize it's a trap. And if we pull out the red dye, they'll realize that too."

"That's why the injuries are going to be real."

"What?!"

Tai sighed. "It's hard on me, and it will be even harder on you, but I've made the decision, and it's unanimous."

Kari leaned in closer.

"What, exactly, are you going to do to me?"

"Well……."

~*~

Sora was sitting outside, filing some papers. She didn't have to wonder what was going on, as her husband had already told her. She looked at her watch, and decided that it was about time. She put everything down, and waited for it.

The waiting really wasn't all that long.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Yep, right on time.

Sora listened through the door.

"I CAN'T BELIVE THAT YOU'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO DO THIS TO ME! ARE YOU CRAZY?! WHAT IF I DIE, TAI, WHAT IF SOMEHTING HAPPENS TO ME?" Hikari screeched.

"Don't worry; it'll be Davis who does it." Tai tried to calm her.

"Oh great! That makes everything SO much better!!!" she yelled sarcastically.

"Come one, Hikari, you know he's the best."

She was silent for a moment, but her breathing was hard.

"Kari, it's the only way that they'll believe that you're not with us, and when they look at you, you'll be genuinely hurt. It's a foolproof plan. Nothing can go wrong. Then, when you're better, you'll come back here and report what you saw. Then, we wipe them off the face of the planet, and we win."

She sighed, then said angrily. "I'll think about it." Hikari turned, and stormed out of the room.

"You'll be paid well!" Taichi shouted after her just as she slammed the door.

When she left, Sora got up, and went in.

"That went well."

"Yes, it did, didn't it." he said with a smile. "You know what I think?"

"What?" she asked.

"I think that you need a break." He walked out, and locked the front door. There were a few people who had a key, but only to the first lock. It was the second that he used. He tossed the keys in the air, then caught them again and placed them on Sora's desk.

"I think that I need a break too." He smiled and walked closer to her.

She smiled back, and placed her arms around his neck, as he kissed her lightly. As time went on, it grew heavier, and more passionate.

~*~

Hikari stormed out of the main building, and out into the streets. People still stayed out of her way, as she was on a rampage. Those who knew what was going on realized that she had been told, and those who didn't, didn't dare to ask.

She stormed through the streets, and went towards her house. But instead of going to hers, she went to Davis's.

"DAVIS!" She yelled as she entered the door.

"Geez! Haven't you ever heard of knocking? You don't just-" He stopped as he saw the look on her face.

"Oh, so I guess Tai told you, huh."

"You better bet he told me!"

"Hey, personally, I voted against it, but hey, what can I say, you're brother thinks I'm the best, and I have to admit, I am."

She walked closer to him. "I swear, if anything happens to me, you'll be deader tan those reformists will be when we're through with them!" she threatened.

"Hey, take it easy. I never miss. That's why the boss chose me for the job."

"If you miss even in the slightest bit, I swear-"

"I know, I'll be deader than the reformists. Don't worry, it'll be fine. It's gonna be a close call though, I have to make it look like I was trying to kill you."

"Yes, I know." she replied through gritted teeth.

"It'll be fine, don't worry."

"You already said that."

"Because I'm trying to make a point."

Hikari sighed. "Show me what you'll be using."

Davis nodded. "This way."

He led her down a flight of stairs that led into the basement. Then, he pulled a secret lever that opened a section of the wall. Inside, was a small weaponry.

"I'll be using this." He pulled out a small hand gun. "It's small, but it'll to the job. It's mostly just loud, and it shouldn't do too much damage. It won't go all the way through, and I'll be standing a ways back. I'll hit you right about here." He pointed to a spot, just on her shoulder. It was away from any vital elements, and, if everything went well, would only leave a scar. It was on the right side of her chest, as not to hit the heart.

"Are you sure that you're up to this?"

"No, I'm not up to it," she sighed, "but I'll do it."

Davis nodded, and put the gun back.

"I guess I should go tell my brother. He'll need to know."

Hikari turned, and left. She went back the way she came, only a little slower. She stopped to get something to eat, as she realised that she was really hungry. After, she proceeded back to the main building.

She went back through the halls of the building, and went to the uppermost floor. Her shoulder length chestnut hair streamed along behind her as she walked. Frustrated, she pulled it back into a sloppy ponytail. She pressed the buzzer.

"Hello?"

"Let me in, I need to talk to my brother."

Sora was silent, as she didn't want to get in her way. She opened the door, and Hikari entered. She flew passed Sora, and stormed into his office. Tai was on the phone with someone, and looked up angrily. His expression changed when he realized who it was. He smiled and held up his finger, telling her to wait a moment.

Annoyed, Hikari tapped her foot rather loudly.

Five minutes later, Tai was off the phone. He folded his hands, and leaned forward.

"So, you've made you're decision?"

"Fine, I'll do it. But, if I get hurt-"

"Davis will pay with his life, and I will never ask you to do anything ever again." He finished for her. "Sound good?"

"Fine."

He smiled, "Good."

"So, when are you going to brutally murder me?"

"Tomorrow night."

She stared at him, wide-eyed. "Well thanks for the week's notice." she said sarcastically.

"I'm sorry, but I didn't know that they would be here a week ago. I was informed late yesterday, and I came up with the plan. You were out on your duties, and I couldn't get a hold of you. I wasn't about to tell you on a message, so I left one to tell you to meet me. They're going to be here tomorrow night, and that's when we have to act."

She just looked at him. "Fine, I'm still in."

"Excellent. Now, You can't look like a rebel. You'll need to turn in your weapons, and your badge. You can't look all neat and tidy, your hair would be perfect like that. Find a pair of old jeans and an old t-shirt. Rip them up a bit, and stain them with dirt and stiff. The blood will do the rest."

"Sounds comforting."

"You'll be just on the outskirts, and Davis will be the only one with you. He'll return promptly after. He's been instructed to make a big commotion about it as well. There will be two more stationed as watchers to let you know when to begin. I think that's about all."

She nodded her head.

"Come here tomorrow at six thirty all ready. Davis will be here, as will Todd and Cael, who will be the other two."

Hikari nodded once more, and left.

~*~

That night wasn't very good for her. She wasn't looking forward to being shot, but then again, who would. At least they would finally get those annoying pests out of their hair, and they could live like the nice little rebels that they were. She didn't see a problem with the way that they were living, it seemed to work. They were fine until the reformists came. Something about living in harmony and peace.

'Harmony and peace my butt. They don't know what it's like to live like this, and they never will.'

She tossed and turned, until the wee hours of the morning, she finally found some rest.

~*~

When she woke up, Hikari looked at the clock. She had slept in, a lot. It was now almost noon. She rolled out of bed, and looked at herself. There would be no use in putting any make-up on, and didn't brush her hair. She put it once again into a sloppy ponytail, then headed to her wardrobe closet.

After a half hour of searching, she found a fair of faded jeans, quite tight, and a white t-shirt. It was loose, but short. It would do for the mission. She also found some old running shoes.

Since she had time, Hikari took to work with the scissors. She cut tiny holes, then ripped them, to make her clothes look even older.

When she was finished, Hikari made herself some breakfast, or rather, lunch. She sat in front of the television for a few hours.

After frying her brain, she looked over at the clock. It was quarter to four. She still had some time. Hikari went over and filled Meeko's food and water dishes. She didn't want her cat to starve. She figured that she'd leave the flap unlocked, so the cat could get in and out of the house. She make her brother check on him every once and a while as payment. He'd also have to water the plants, and feed the fish.

She tidied up a little, as she didn't know how long she'd be gone. Also, to waste some more time. Not that she wanted this to happen, but she hated waiting and dreading for it to happen. She might as well get it over with quickly.

After eating some dinner, she glanced over at the clock. It was six. Fed up and tired of waiting, Kari left. She didn't bother with a jacket, and just left. At quarter after, she reached her brother's office.

Once again, she pressed the buzzer. Sora's voice didn't come over the intercom, but the door was still opened for her. Hikari went right in, and went strait to the back.

"Hikari, hi! You're early." Taichi commented.

"Got fed up with waiting."

"Anxious to get shot?" he asked.

"Definitely." she answered with sarcasm evident in her voice.

"Well, I guess it's not that bad of a thing." Tai turned to Davis, who was standing just beside him. "Take my sister to the designated spot now. Wait there until you hear the signal from Todd and Cael, whom you know are already there. You know what the signal is. Wait for the right moment, until they're only a few metres away, then act. Hikari will do the rest. The reformists won't be here for another few hours, but I want you to get in place, just in case. As for the time being, I'm sure the two of you can find something to do to amuse yourselves." Tai turned back to his sister.

"Davis has been instructed to make a commotion about this whole thing. Don't let them follow him, for he will be coming strait back here. I'll give you this. It's a hearing device. I don't care what you do with it, just don't get found out. There's no telling what they'll do."

"Oh, and one more thing." Tai tossed Kari a red packet. "This is for extra effect. The wound really isn't going to be as big as you think. This'll make it worse."

Hikari nodded. She could feel her heart thumping against her chest. She felt as if it would explode through her rib cage any second now.

"What are you waiting for? Go!" Tai urged.

Davis took Kari, and they went out.

"So, you excited?"

"Thrilled." she said through gritted teeth.

"Great."

"I swear, when I get back, I'm going to have to shoot you."

"Haha, that's a funny one." he replied, thinking that she was still being sarcastic.

"I'm dead serious."

"Oh…"

The two kept walking until they reached the spot. It was in a dense forest, just outside the base. You could see in, but only make out shadows. They stopped right at the roadside, hidden behind the line of trees. Davis spotted Cael and Todd who were up further, on either side of the path. They were standing, as they didn't need to hide at the moment.

"I'm just going to mark where I'm going to stand. You should stand somewhere near the road." Davis told her.

Hikari went and stood just inside the boundaries. She turned and looked back at him, annoyed.

Davis stopped a ways away, and marked it. He shouted back, "Mark the spot with something, nothing can go wrong here."

Hikari looked down, and started kicking a spot in the dirt.

~*~

Time passed very slowly, for all of them. The two of them chatted, well, Davis chatted, Hikari zoned out. Finally, the signal was heard. Davis shot up to attention.

"That's the signal", he whispered, "get into place."

Hikari nodded, frightened and nervous. She thought about bolting at that moment.

'No, I can't. It won't do any damage, and it's only going to pierce the skin a little. This could be the breakthrough that everyone's been counting on, and I'm not going to back out now.' she told herself.

She opened the packet that her brother had given her, and she smeared a little on her shirt. She got it on her hands, and a few other places as well, for effect. Voices were coming down the path. These people really didn't care for secrecy.

~*~

"So, what are we supposed to do, exactly?" One of them asked.

"We're supposed to gather any information that we can that will help us. Things have been quiet around here lately, too quiet." Another answered.

"They have to be planning something." Said yet another.

~*~

Davis held up the gun, Hikari closed her eyes. She waited for it. They were close, he pulled the trigger.

~*~

BANG!!

"What was that?"

"There's someone on there!"

Hikari fell through the trees, faking unconsciousness. She dared not move.

She could hear them run over, and one of them was close.

"She's been shot!" the one that was closest shouted.

"Those darn rebels, they'll do anything for fun." said another.

Davis ran, cracking branches and thumping his feet loudly as he ran.

"He's getting away!" yelled the last.

"Leave him. She's more important now." It was the one who was examining her. "We have to get her back to base. She needs medical attention."

"We can't do that!" one protested.

"We have to! Besides, it's not like she's a rebel or anything. They wouldn't go so low as to shoot one of their own." The third said.

"Alright, we'll come back later. I'm not carrying her though."

"Fine, I will." She heard as she was picked up. She would have opened her eyes, but she couldn't risk it. She was in pain, but it wasn't as bad as she had initially thought. It turned out that the bullet wasn't even real metal. It was more like rubber. Still, it hurt.

Todd and Cael watched as they took Hikari away. When they were out of hearing range, Cael picked up his walkie-talkie.

"Hello?"

*"Yeah?"*

"She's in."

*"Good."*

"What do we do now?"

*"Come back to the base. Then, we wait."*

Angel of Light: How was that idea? Is it a little far fetched? I really need to know…so please tell me! I want to know if I should keep going with it. If you don't like it, tell me and I'll scrap it. If you do, tell me and I'll bring out more chapters! TtFn!
