Chapter 4: Digital Tale
(Regular Narration)
"Pass me the ball, Demiveemon!"
"Shure thing, Davish!" the little blue Digimon shouted. He waddled as quickly as possible to the black and white soccer ball.
"I got it!" Poromon shouted as he fluttered over to the soccer ball.
Just as Demiveemon jumped onto the soccer ball, Poromon landing on top of him and they both went rolling along with the ball. Along the way, they managed to bowl over a couple of the other In-training Digimon.
"Look out!" Yolei shouted as she, Ken, Davis, and Cody ran after the run away ball that was either kidnapping the little Digital monsters or was squishing them in its path.
As this was happening in the background, most of the others were hanging out on the playground equipment.
Jen and Tera grabbed some swings and Jen coaxed Izzy into grabbing one next to her. Sora and Yamato were sitting on the edge of the marry-go-round with Kari. As they slowly spun around, Kari let her bare feet drag in the cool dry sand. TK took a couple of laps on the monkey bars before he joined Kari, Sora, and his brother.
Joe was not fond of marry-go-rounds since he got queasy easily. He then took a seat at the bottom of a slide until a small kid of about five years old slid down and rammed him into the sand chin first. Joe then decided to sit on a nearby, and safe, bench.
Tai stood leaning against the pole of the swing set that was nearest to Tera. Most everyone was watching him watching her as she watched the others that were playing with the soccer ball.
For a moment, Tera didn't feel the eyes on her as she watched her old friend, her new friends, and her little cousin play together. She watched as Konekomon chased the ball right along side the others. Her face reflected her smiling heart. She was happy seeing Konekomon play with the other Digimon. For as long as she can remember, Konekomon didn't have any other Digimon to interact with until they met Cody's Digimon.
"So, Tera, how did you and Konekomon find each other?" Jen asked.
Tera blinked out of her thoughts when she heard Jen speaking to her. "Konekomon? Oh, it was a long time ago. I actually found her here in Japan."
The others seemed interested. It wasn't until then that Tera noticed all eyes on her. She shifted in her swing slightly in discomfort. She can only stand to be in the spotlight for so long before her shy personality takes over.
"So tell us!" Kari smiled. "We'd love to hear the story!"
Tera laughed lightly, feeling her uneasiness lift away. "Well, I guess it is kind of an interesting story."
"Story time!" TK joked as everyone listened.
"Well, let me think. It was about eight years ago, I think. I was around eight at the time and it was when my parents were still together. They took my little brother and me and we flew to Japan to attend Cody's dad's funeral."
"Oh, we're sorry." Sora apologized since they didn't realize that Cody's father's death was involved with the story.
"It's alright. I was young and didn't know him well. This was also the first time I got to meet Cody. He was two at the time, as was my little brother, Adam."
"You have a little brother?" said Kari.
Tera nodded. "Yeah. He's really annoying. I wanted to have Cody be my brother when I was younger!" She smiled.
"Little brothers can be a pain." Matt said while looking over to TK.
"Hah, hah." TK replied sarcastically while rolling his eyes.
"Well, sometime after the funeral, my mom took me and Adam to a park near the hotel we were staying at."
*Flashback*
A little girl of eight years old with brown hair pulled back in braided pig tales was playing in the sand with a younger boy with light brown hair. They seemed to be having fun when suddenly-
"Ow!" the little girl shouted as her arms swung up and covered her head.
The little boy with her laughed and clapped his hands.
"It's not funny!" she snapped at her brother. She then saw the black and white sphere to her left that had previously collided with her head. "A soccer ball?"
"Are you ok? Sorry 'bout that!"
The little girl turned around and looked up. She saw a boy about her age with messy brown hair and goggles on his head.
"Can I have my ball back?" he asked nicely.
She blinked, but nodded and handed him the soccer ball.
"Thanks!" he smiled. "Do you want to play with me and my sister?"
The girl looked hopeful. "Sure, but I have to play with my brother."
"He can come play too." The boy smiled.
She then smiled up at him. In all her eight years, he was the nicest boy she had ever met.
"Come on!" the boy's bright eyes shone as he grabbed the girl's hand to take her over to where a little girl stood waiting for her big brother to bring back their ball. "Oh, by the way, I'm-"
*End Flashback*
"I was really sad when I had to leave my new friends." Tera said before she started to giggle. "It was ever since then that I started to like boys."
Jen looked surprised and thoughtful at the same time. "Do you remember the boy's name, by chance?"
"No, it was so long ago."
"Why do you ask, Jen?" Izzy questioned.
"Well, how many boys with goggles did you know from eight years ago?" Jen shrugged.
Izzy blinked. Jen then called over to Davis. "Hey Davis!"
He stopped playing for a moment to answer. "What?"
"Toss me your goggles!"
"What for?!"
"Just do it!"
"Fine!" he pulled them off his head and threw them over to her.
TK intercepted the throw and then handed them to Jen. "Here."
"Thanks, TK."
Jen then got up out of her swing. "Come here." She ordered Tai.
Tai blinked and took a couple of steps to her. Jen then reached up and tugged the goggles over Tai's messy brown hair and snapped the goggles onto the top of his head.
"Ow!" Tai shouted.
Jen then stood back and made Tai face Tera.
"Vola! Instant goggle boy from eight years ago!"
Tera had stood up out of her swing and clasped her hands over her mouth. "Oh my gosh!" she exclaimed. She then accidentally took a step back, tripping backwards over the swing and landing on her back. "Ow!"
"Are you ok?" Tai asked as he bent down and reached out for Tera to take his hand.
Tera groaned. She took his hand as he helped her to stand up. She then pulled her hand out of his as she blushed furiously. "I remember now that he told me his name was Tai! This is like the twilight zone!"
Tai blinked. "Am I missing something?"
"Weren't you listening?" Izzy sighed.
"What? Oh! You think the boy was me? Well, I'm afraid I don't remember that day." Tai said as he scratched his head.
Jen rolled her eyes at Tai and turned to Kari. "Do you remember ever playing on the play ground with Tai and another girl?"
Kari shook her head. "No, I don't."
Jen sighed.
"Well, in either case, Tera seems to remember Tai." Said Joe. "What a strange coincidence."
"In deed." Izzy nodded.
"Wait, isn't Tera supposed to be telling us how she met up with Konekomon?" Matt spoke.
"I was getting to that!" Tera said nervously. "Well, it was on our way back to the hotel that I had found a Digiegg. Of course, I didn't find that out until later."
"So the egg hatched into Konekomon?" Tai asked.
"Konekomon is an In-training stage Digimon." Izzy informed.
Tera nodded. "Konekomon started out as a little cotton ball with eyes until I fed her enough food that she became Konekomon. But that didn't happen until after I left Japan which was sooner than planned."
"How come?" TK asked.
"Because of the so called 'terrorist attack' at Highton View Terrace."
Tai and the others seemed surprised. "You were there too?!"
"I was there because that's were our hotel was at, but what do you mean 'too'?"
"We all used to live there so we saw what happened that night too." Izzy said.
"So you guys saw the giant Digimon?"
Everyone nodded.
"Well, we were supposed to stay for another week, but after the incident my parents wanted to leave as soon as possible. So I smuggled Konekomon along with me and the rest is history!"
"This is just all too incredible!" Jen had to admit. "You MUST be a Digidestined!"
Tera didn't say anything.
"HEADS UP!" Davis shouted as the soccer ball came flying in the group's direction, hitting Tera on the head.
"OW!" She exclaimed as she held her head. "WHY ME!" she hollered out to no one in particular.
The others tried to stifle their laughter at all the irony that they had witnessed this afternoon.
"It must be fate!" Jen snickered.
Tera sighed. "Yeah, and I think fate is against me!"
"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?!" Tai said.
"I wasn't necessarily talking about you, Taichi." Tera replied with a smirk.
"What do you mean 'necessarily'?"
The others laughed and went to join in on the soccer game that had still been going on.
"Don't worry Tai." Tera sighed good-naturedly. "Apparently we've been friends for the past eight years and didn't know it!"
Tai looked at her for a moment and then smiled. "You're right." He agreed.
"You were one of the nicest boys I ever met, Tai. Don't stop being that boy." She smiled. "Or I'll have to hurt you!"
He laughed. "Yeah, I know! So, want to go play soccer with the rest of the gang?"
Tera groaned and rubbed her head. "I'm beginning to not like soccer all that much."
"Come on! It'll be fun!"
Tera sighed and let Tai grab her hand and drag her over to the rest of the group. After that day, Tai and Tera became fast friends once more like they had eight years ago.

YAY! Tera and Tai are friends now! I hope this chapter wasn't too bad! This chapter was mainly to fill you in on the main stuff. Questions? Comments? Concerns? E-mail me! More to come! Keep reading and please review!
