Disclaimer: To all those annoying reps of Toei animation, I do not own Digimon. I am only using the characters to give my own story and share my ideas with others. I'd buy Digimon off you if I had the money. but I don't so I just have to settle for this.
Author's note: This chapter is for you Lar_Lar. a gift for my appreciation for the idea behind the story title. Thanks a lot darling, please keep posting. Luv gomababe
Izzy woke to bright sunshine streaming through the windows of the hut he was in. He got up and stretched, yawning widely and grinning. It was a beautiful day, but as his hand brushed against the cool metal of his tag, his smile faltered.
"I wonder if Kari's told the others about the shield?" he wondered aloud, Tentomon came into the hut at that moment rubbing his eyes sleepily.
"Good morning Tentomon." Izzy greeted, trying his best to smile again, and failing badly. Tentomon noticed this,
"Morning Izzy. Are you feeling all right? You're not getting ill again are you?" he asked anxiously as he seen Izzy finger his tag. Izzy looked up,
"No Tento. I'm fine. Has Kari told you what happened in the 'Dark Ocean' then?" He asked quizzically, his eyes shining with curiosity as usual, but this time they were tinged with sadness. Tentomon nodded,
"Yeah she did," he hung his head, "We should have realised there was something up when Gatomon and Patamon said they could sense the negative energy the 'Dark Ocean' produces so clearly." Izzy bent down to his partner's eye level,
"Well, that wasn't anybody's fault. Even I thought I was just coming down with a bug of some sort at first." He assured the bright red insectoid Digimon. Tentomon looked up,
"Really?" he asked, "Well I suppose it wasn't that obvious to the rest of us." Izzy smiled.
"I guess not. Where is Kari anyway? I need to talk to her and Ken about something." He asked, wondering where the others were. Tentomon blinked,
"Well Ken is in the hut just across from here with most of the others. Kari ran off after Davis and T.K had a. disagreement over her mental health and whether she was being controlled by the Scubamon." Izzy snorted,
"If, by disagreement, you mean an all out war between those two, it's no wonder she ran off. I could never stand Matt and Tai's arguments, let alone arguments between those two." Tentomon looked at his human partner with confusion,
"But you never ran off when Tai and Matt started arguing. you just opened your laptop and started working on those hieroglyphs we found on File Island." Izzy grinned,
"My point exactly." He stated as comprehension dawned on Tentomon. "Anyway, enough about that. I'll go and get Ken, then I'll go looking for Kari." Tentomon nodded as he led Izzy towards the hut he'd been sleeping in the night before.
In Marineangemon's hut, meanwhile, Kari was sitting eating breakfast with the little pink angel guardian of the Bukamon Village.
"Thank you so much for letting me sleep in here last night Marineangemon, I was sick fed up of those two arguing over me all the time." Kari sighed as she finished her bowl of smoked fish and local seeds and fruit. Marineangemon nodded in understanding,
"It's quite all right Kari, I welcome visitors, especially ones like your friends and yourself." He said gently, his sea green eyes meeting Kari's chocolate brown ones. Gatomon sighed with content as she put her now empty bowl to the side,
"Marineangemon, your food is delicious." She complimented, "Send my compliments to the chef." Marineangemon chuckled lightly as Gatomon lay back in Kari's lap.
"Don't worry, I will." He turned to Kari again; "So Davis doesn't believe that we should trust the Scubamon?" he asked innocently, "Why?"
"He thinks they're evil just because they happen to live in the Dark Ocean." Kari sighed, "I appreciate his concern, but it's a little too much for me to handle when he gets defensive."
"I see, carry on."
"Well, Davis and T.K have never really seen eye to eye. I think it's because of Davis' jealousy of my close friendship with T.K. but that's all it is between us, friendship. I don't want to ruin it by getting romantically involved with either of them, but their intentions seem to clash with mine." Gatomon looked up at Kari, understanding gleaming in her bright blue eyes.
"I know how you feel there." She sighed,
"Oh?"
"Veemon and Patamon seem to show the same sort of 'friendly' rivalry that T.K and Davis do. but not to the same extreme." She explained, "I sorted it out by telling them both that I just wasn't interested in their advances and they left me alone. They're the best of friends now."
"So how did they take it at first?" Kari asked, managing to stifle a giggle at the thought of a love struck Patamon and Veemon arguing with each other over Gatomon's love for either of them." Gatomon giggled as she remembered,
"Ok so this really isn't that funny, but it is kinda cute. Patamon left and bawled his eyes out for a full two hours, while Veemon just gave me those huge puppy eyes, begging me to reconsider. I. discreetly told him that I just wasn't ready for a relationship with and had to go and comfort Patamon and explain the same thing to him." Kari snorted with laughter,
"Just what do you mean by 'discreetly' Gatomon, 'cause I'm getting the distinct impression that you weren't all that gentle with Veemon." Gatomon grinned,
"You're right, I just gave him a good kick up his tail end and told him to get lost for a few years." She giggled. Marineangemon shook his head as the two females before him doubled up with laughter. He looked out of the window,
"If you ladies will excuse me." He said, "I need to go and check the village perimeter and see how the Child of knowledge is." Kari and Gatomon acknowledged that they'd heard him; before talking about how they would deal with Davis and T.K and any secret crushes the two of them might have had before.
Izzy entered the hut with Tentomon, to discover most of the other digidestined present eating and talking pleasantly amongst themselves. He looked down at Tentomon quizzically,
"Oh hang on a minute, I'll see if I can find us some spare bowls, and find out if Tai's finished everything off before we got here." Tentomon replied to his friend's silent request.
"Right thanks Tentomon. I'm going to talk to Ken while you get that then." Tentomon flew off to the table situated on the opposite wall, while Izzy walked around the others looking for Ken.
"HEY! Izzy! You're up!" Tai yelled unnecessarily, causing those sitting next to him to jump and lose half their breakfast in the process. He received some very annoyed glares,
"Hey, Tai! You didn't need to yell." Matt commented angrily looking down at his empty bowl. Agumon just blinked in surprise and confusion. The others looked up to see Izzy shaking his head to get rid of the ringing sound in his ears.
"Like Matt said, Tai. You didn't have to yell, I think the entire Village heard you, not to mention some community several miles away." He muttered. As everyone else greeted Izzy warmly, and considerably more quietly than Tai had, Izzy took a seat next to Ken. Tentomon arrived shortly after with a bowl of fruit and seeds intermixed with some sort of fish.
"Thanks Tentomon." He said to his partner, taking the bowl from his claws. "Hi Ken, how are you this morning?" he asked the younger boy genially.
"I'm fine thank you. you?" he asked nervously,
"I'm all right. but I do need to talk to you about something. But first thing's first. where's Kari?" Ken blinked with surprise. Izzy wanted to talk to him and Kari about something? He shook his head,
"We don't know where Kari is. she ran off last night." Izzy interrupted,
"Yeah Tentomon told me about it." He sighed, "I was kinda hoping she'd tell someone where she went. but I guess not."
"Well, she was kinda mad t the two of them."
"I suppose so." Izzy sighed again as he began eating.
"So what do you want to talk to us about anyway?" Ken asked tentatively, half-knowing what the answer was going to be.
"Mostly the 'Dark Ocean'. I mean I know that you and Kari are the most closely connected with the place, but I just need some questions answered. It'll be better if Kari's there as well." He assured the dark haired boy. Ken nodded.
"Don't worry Ken, I doubt that either Daemon or this other guy he's teamed up with will actually try to attack you and Kari." Wormmon assured his partner. Ken looked down at the caterpillar like Digimon gratefully,
"Thanks Wormmon, but it's not just that," He sighed, "it's the fact that they could escape, you heard Kari last night talking about that shield thing right?"
"Yes, but I didn't really understand it."
"We'll ask Kari and Izzy about it later then." Ken continued eating, an uneasy feeling lurking in the back of his mind.
In the 'Dark Ocean' Daemon clasped his hands together with glee,
"Yes, it's working. The shield will fall and together, Dragomon, you and I can rule the worlds with darkness." He laughed almost insanely. Dragomon nodded,
"Yesss, and there's nothing the digidestined can do about it." He hissed. The two evil Digimon laughed in unison, their voices blending together perfectly; causing the Scubamon to cower in fear as a dark mist blocked Daemon and Dragomon from view.
