Angel's Second Chance

DigiFreak103

DF103: It's my first actual Ryuki…yay…anyways…the title sorta gives it away so I won't say anything…except this fic takes place a few months (but before 6 months) after the D-Reaper incident…and the Tamers are at Rika's celebrating the anniversary of the few month, day—day the digimon left something. o.o;;…So without further ado…here's 'Angel's Second Chance'

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It has been months after the D-Reaper destroyed half of Japan, but since then, many people have gotten back the city to a working order. The tamers were celebrating their 4-month anniversary since the digimon left, at Rika's house.

"I wish the Renamon were still here." Rika said, taking a sip of her tea, solemnly staring into space.

"We miss all our digimon, Rika," Ryo said, putting his hand on her shoulder. Ryo was right, everyone did miss their digimon, but everyone still enjoyed each other's company.

"Akiyama, I'm warning you, get your hand off me," Rika said, scaring Takato, Kazu, and Kenta.

"C'mon Rika, we're supposed to have fun, not mope around. Friends stick together and that's why we're here. We can't lose touch with each other," Jeri explained, taking a seat next to Rika.

Rika shrugged. "Okay, if you say so," Rika said, standing up, "then who wants to go to the park? It's a nice autumn day, and I don't think you'd want to waste it before we go back to school, now would you?" The rest of the tamers got up and followed Rika to the door.

Just as Rika reached the door, the doorbell rang. Rika opened the door and saw her father with flowers.

Aghast, Rika yelled, "Mom!!"

"What, dear? Who is…?" Rumiko asked walking towards the door before noticing a very familiar man—her husband.

"Rumiko, you look beautiful," Rika's dad complimented, handing her the flowers.

"Beautiful my butt. Why are you here? You don't belong here!" yelled Rumiko. "We made an agreement that you would take care of Rika part-time, but you just up and left without saying anything—" Rumiko continued.

Rika's face blanched in anger. "You guys, can you go to my room? I'll be there in a minute." Rika whispered to her friends. They nodded and headed for Rika's room.

"Who do you think that is?" Kazu asked.

"I think that's Rika's dad. Why else would her mom yell at guy when she goes out with a lot of them," answered Jeri.

Her dad, huh? I better go check on Rika, thought Ryo, tiptoeing back into the living room to spy on the family.

"Where do you think he's going?" asked Henry.

"Probably to check on his, 'dream girl,'" Takato said, laughing.

When Ryo got to the corner, he saw Rika's dad, Rumiko, Seiko, and Rika sitting around the coffee table. Rumiko crossed her arms with a disgusted expression on her face. Rika scowled as the family sat in silence, exchanging varied glances at each other.

"Who do you think you are? You left us and now you come back!!" Rika yelled inadvertently. "I might've been little, but I still remember everything."

"Rika, let's hear what he has to say," Rika's grandmother said.

"Thank you, Seiko," Rika's dad said, setting the flowers down on the table, "I want to re-marry you, Rumiko. I want to start over with you and our daughter. I was wrong to leave without saying anything, but let's just put this all behind us and be a family again."

Rika was devastated when she heard those words fly gracefully out of his mouth. He looked at Rika and said, "I saw you on TV. You were fighting those red blobs. You saved the world from destruction." Rika's eyes widened and then glared at him.

"That's it, isn't it? You came back because my friends and I saved the world. If it happens again, you think you'll be safe with me around. Well, you know what? If you were the only person in the world other than my friends, their family, and my REAL family, then I would just let the world be destroyed, because I don't want to see the likes of you! You have ruined my life. Go ruin someone else's!" Rika yelled, as she ran out of the room and out the front door.

Ryo blinked and emerged from the corner, running after Rika. Before making out the front door, he stopped in front of Rika's dad and said, "She's got a point, you know," then left to go find Rika.

Out of the neighborhood and into the city, Rika walked along the streets without a care in the world of what went on around her. Why did he have to come back? thought Rika. She was about to cross the street when she heard her name being called from a distance.

"Huh?" Rika said, looking around.

"Rika! Watch out!" yelled the voice.

Rika turned around and saw a big moving truck, coming towards her. Rika was paralyzed; she couldn't move. I guess this is it. Bye mom. Bye grandma, thought Rika.
