Knight In Black Armor

Me: *looks down to the floor sadly*

Rash: What's wrong Nathan?

Me:Sorry everyone, but I'll be dissapearing for a couple of weeks on thursday, so I won't be able to update for a while.

Rash: Ohh...I see...

Rika: You have to go and you haven't even put me in yet?

Me:Uh-oh...quick, start chapter before she beats me up! Chapter 4: We finally meet...

*Gym*

Rash sat patiently as she looked towards the entrance. "You've gone quiet, are you ok?" Takato asked as he faced the green vulpine. However he got no reply other than a few muttered words. "Sorry, what was that?" Takato asked confused. Rash sighed a little and repeated her mutter, only louder.

"I said, you should know Takato, this is how you feel when you wait for Rika." Rash replied blankly.

"Wh, what!?" Takato yelled out in suprise.

"I've been around a few days, and it's already easy to tell that you like her child." The green kitsune repied, not minding that Henry at Terriermon were suddenly silent and listening carefully.

"I, I do not!" Takato yelled angrily.

"Could you tell her that truthfully?" Rash replied, finally turning to face him. Takato looked down and turned red in the face.

"I...I...look, just please don't tell her, ok?" Takato said, giving up on the arguement. She was right, he did like Rika, he always had done.

"It's ok, it isn't my job to play cupid...but..."Rash began. Takato looked to her worried.

"But...what?" Takato asked nervously.

"But if Nathan gets hold of that information, he tries to play cupid quite often."

"I already have the information..." A voice said from seemingly nowhere.

"Huh? Wh, who's there!?" Takato yelled out in fear. He didn't want Rika knowing his feelings for her, he'd only get rejected...

"Hello Takato, hi Henry" Nathan said lightly as he entered the room, not seeing Rash sitting on the other side of Takato. Rash phased out and reappeared behind Nathan.

"I've found you Nathan." Rash said with a light smile from behind him. He jumped at this sudden sound and turned to face her.

"R, Rash?" Nathan suttered as his eyes widened and a grin began to form on his face. Rash nodded as she looked down to him.

"I've been waiting a long time, my tamer."

"Rash!" He called out in glee as he embraced her in a hug. Rash began to blush a little before returning the hug. Takato looked over to the two and smiled snidely.

"So, who likes who, heh?"Takato stated.

"Well from what I've seen I'd say you like that red-headed girl you seem to hang about with so often." Nathan replied, not knowing this statement would annoy him.

"How come everyone knows I like Rika all of a sudden!?" Takato yelled angrily. Terriermon and Henry simply sat in the corner and snickered.

Renamon phased into the shadows carrying Guilmon, putting him back on his feet before the two walked up to everyone else. "It's probably because you keep yelling it out Takato." Renamon said, Guilmon standing beside her. Takato looked down and blushed even more.

"Just, don't tell her ok?" Takato said timidly as he gazed around at everyone. They all nodded in agreement. However, suprisingly Rika walked in only moments later, shocked at everyone else being there.

Hey, what're you lot doing here?" Rika asked confused. Everyone except Takato looked up to Rika and grinned slightly. "Uh...why're you all grinning at me like that?" She asked worriedly.

"Well, I'd best be off!" Nathan said as he stood up, hinting at the others to follow. "Hey Henry, why don't you come and train with me? I could use some practice." Nathan suggested.

"Sure thing." Henry said, picking up on Nathan's hint to leave Takato and Rika alone together.

"I wanna watch this, let's go Guilmon." Renamon decided. Guilmon nodded in agreement and they all left for the park, leaving Rika and Takato alone together...

*Chapter 4 end*

Rash: Stop ending it like that!

Me: I'm sorry Rash-chan *wraps arms around Rash tightly* but I have to get people to carry on reading.

Rash: *blushes* Oh...uhm...o,ok then.

Impmon: Ugh...I think I'm gonna be sick

Me:Turns and holds out a long samurai sword* Excuse me?

Impmon: Agh! Finish the chapter, finish the chapter!
