(Next chap! Oh, and Actually John Cottrell is NOT from America... That was a typo. He is from Canada actually. ; Sorry about that John... I still don't own Digimon, Toei does. I don't own Commander Cottrell, Viewtiful John does.)

At precisely 5:00 pm Earth Time in Japan, Ryo Akiyama's BLIMPMON vessel was reaching the Docking area of Odaiba Industries HQ. Digital Knights and landing crew were lined up as the BLIMPMON was getting into a position to land. All where awaiting the reports from Ryo's team, to see what the so called "Evil Virus Hackers" were up to.

As the BLIMPMON landed, everyone began to stand up. John made an excuse how he was going to stay behind to do something important. Ryo took it upon himself to usher everyone out of the BLIMPMON.

The Doors opened as Digital Knights were lined up in salute. They watched as General Ryo Akiyama, and Major Koushiro Izumi stepped out, along with some of the more popular Digital Knights. They noticed that there appeared to be some new, female, faces. But Ryo and Koushiro had already told them that they were new recruits, so they did not take any hostility.

Ryo led the other soldiers back inside of the base, after leaving the port. Koushiro gave him a disk, containing the supposed information of the Virus Hackers. Ryo was satisfied with what he was given in terms of data, and he dismissed everyone, saying they could go back to their quarters.

Ryo, with the disc in hand, went to Oikawa's office, with winged feet. When he got there, he began to knock on the door.

"Enter..."

Ryo slowly opened the door, and walked into a large, black, ebony office. At the far end, was a large wood work desk, and seated in the black leather chair, happened to be Yukio Oikawa. He was a medium faced man, who looked slightly gaunt, with long blue hair. His eyes looked as though he had not slept for weeks, and he was dressed in a dark blue suit. "Ah, General Akiyama... Have you got the information?"

"Yes..." Ryo produced the CD in front of Oikawa. "So, is it true, about our commander?"

"Yes... He knows... But he has escaped from us..."

"Apparently, he was supposed to be passing your group. Perhaps he never escped into space... He could be hiding in somewhere around the base still. He may in fact be confiding in the Major."

"Yes... They are family... Should we be suspecting the Major?"

"Not yet. We don't have the evidence anyway.... We shall just have to watch... Our plans must go through..."

At Taichi's quarters, Taichi was showing his dorm room to Sora, volunteering to share his dorm with him. "Well..." He said, waving his hand all over the room. "This is my den..."

Sora looked all around, seeing posters of soccer players, trophies and other sports substance. "Sugoi..."

"Hai... In my younger days, I was a champion soccer player. I could have been in the big leagues of soccer, but everything changed, ever since the bombing...of my town, which almost cost me Hikari..." Taichi hung his head slightly. "All this time, I never knew she was alive, and with other people..." He turned to Sora. "Did they treat her right?"

Sora rubbed the back of her neck. "Not exactly... In fact, my so called "brother" was often rude towards her, saying she wasn't capable of being an officer or warrior."

Tachii's eyes flashed. "Nani?! That creep! Hikari's not like that. In fact, she could whip someone's ass if they provoked her."

Sora sighed. "He's never thought highly of women. Not even me."

"Some Brother he is..."

"Tell me about it. He doesn't think I'm capable of battling. The truth is I'm a far better DIGIMON battler, and he thinks my skills will make his look pathetic. He's actually quite insensitive. I remember...at the funeral of our parents." She let a few tears run down her face. "I was so upset about their deaths that I was crying. But Hibiki... He kept a poker face throughout the ceremony. By the time the funeral was over, I confronted him. 'Our parents have just been taken from us. Don't you feel any sorrow or regret?' He looked at me coldly and said, 'Why should I... Those idiots got what they deserved for being in the middle of a war, and abandoning us when we needed them the most. Forget them, and don't ever speak of them again.' He then rudely pushed me away and stormed off to who knows where."

Taichi felt a pang at his heart. 'So that's it... The death of their parents... That's what has made him this way...' "Sora-chan... Ano... That's terrible. He's the only family you have left, and he won't even acknowledge you?"

Sora shook her head, sniffling slightly.

Without thinking, Tai wrapped his arms around Sora's small frame and embraced her lovingly, letting her cry onto his shoulder. 'She's lost her family to war, just like me. We're so much alike... How can such a sweet girl, be exposed to this kind of harshness?' Still holding Sora, he slowly whispered. "Sora-chan... I may not exactly be family, but you can confide in me. I'd never turn my back on you, and I'll be here for you, always..."

Sora blushed and shivered slightly as Taichi spoke near her ear.

Taichi cocked an eyebrow at Sora reaction. Smiling mischievously, he spoke again. "IS there something wrong with me doing this?"

Sora shivered again. "Do-do you have to speak like that, near my ear?" She said hurriedly in what came out as a squeak.

Taichi suddenly couldn't help himself. He neared his face down to Sora's neck and began to kiss it.

Sora suddenly was overcome with pleasure. 'N-Nani?! Doesn't he realize what he's making me feel...ooh...this feels so good...'

Taichi could her Sora let out a soft sigh, as he lifted up his head. "You liked that? Well, you're going to love this..." He neared his face over and pressed his lips against Sora's.

Fireworks flew in her head as Sora felt herself being kissed by Taichi. For her this was unexpected, and she was enjoying it.

KNOCK! KNOCK!

"Hey Taichi-kun! The Major wants to see you for a moment!" It was Yamato.

'KSUO!' Taichi and Sora thought in unison as they pulled away.

Taichi turned for the door, but before he left, he turned to Sora. "Whatever thoughts you had just now...could you hold them, and keep them until I get back?" He asked goofily.

Sora nodded with a wistful smile.

Taichi quickly bolted over and kissed Sora again on the lips, before he darted out the door.

After Taichi left, Sora sat down upon the bed letting out a sigh. "How did this happen... I only know him for a day, and already I love..." She blushed at the thought, but in her heart, she knew it was true. "Kami... I'm in love..." She got up, suddenly feeling a little bit hot. She walked over to the window in Tai's Dorm and looked out at the city below. "Suddenly... I feel like I've got something more to live for..." She kept seeing Tai's smile in her thoughts as she stepped away from the window, which made her blush even deeper. She reached down and popped the buttons of her pants, and pulled them apart, exposing her red, silk panties. She let her pants drop to her ankles before kicking them off to the side. She then took the hem of her shirt, and pulled it over her head, removing it and exposing her red bra-clad chest. Tossing the shirt to the side, she head into the bathroom and closed the door.

Taichi and Yamato walked through the halls in search of Major Izumi's office. As they walked down, Yamato turned to his friend and noticed some marks on his face. "Taichi-Kun... What are those marks on your face..."

"What?" Taichi acted clueless.

"Marks on your face... They look like Kiss marks..." He added with a grin. "You sly dog... You and Sora kissed already..."

"YAMA-KUN!" He then lowered his voice. "Don't spread it around. The walls have ears you know. Ok... Sora and I kissed and got a little hot... There's just something about her..."

"You both went through similar experiences? OR maybe because she's the ultimate sweetheart to you?" Yamato laughed.

Taichi rolled his eyes at his blond friend. "Mattaku... Yama-kun... Is women all you ever think about?"

"That and music, and that's all I need to be happy." Yamato smirked, and made a cool gesture.

Taichi rolled his eyes. "Figures... Here we are..."

The two boys reached the Major's office, and Taichi knocked on the door.

"Come in..." Koushiro's voice uttered.

Tai and Matt pushed the door open, into Koushiro's office.
