Chapter six: Relationships
Early Morning, December 26th, 2002. Julia's house.
Julia, dressed in her white pajamas, walked slowly out of her bedroom towards the kitchen, Pyocomon in tow.
She really didn't want to do this, but she knew she had to sooner or later.
When she had finally gotten home, after her crying slowed down, her parents were worried sick about her and were just about to go out to go find her.
Julia knew that her father would have yelled at her all night if it weren't for her mother. Mrs. Martinez had noticed how downcast Julia had looked, and that she was worried and sad about something.
Julia's mother then suggested that they would talk about what happened in the morning, after everyone had rested up. It had been a very long day after all.
So now, the day after the attack of those Hanumon, Julia was working up the will to talk to her mother about her being a Digi-Destined.
It was a good thing that her father had left to work earlier that morning, Julia always felt more comfortable talking with her mother. Besides, Julia had other things that she wanted to talk with her mother besides Digimon.
Julia entered the kitchen and saw her mother eating breakfast. Mrs. Martinez usually listened to the morning news on the radio while she ate her breakfast, but not today. Julia knew that that was because she wanted to talk to her.
"Good morning, Mom," Said Julia from the kitchen door.
Mrs. Martinez turned her head and smiled, "Good morning Julia, could you sit down please?"
Julia nodded; she was a little surprised about her mother's reaction towards her. Slowly, she sat down on a chair across from her mother. Pyocomon walked over to where she sat down, Julia then picked up the baby Digimon and placed it on the table near her.
Mrs. Martinez looked at the little pink Digimon as it sat on the table. She was still amazed, and a little reluctant, about the Digimon being here. She had trouble just believing that they actually existed!
Looking back at Julia, Mrs. Martinez took a deep sigh and her expression turned to a more serious one. "Okay, Julia, are you feeling better today?"
Julia nodded slightly.
"Julia, if you don't feel like talking about this yet, I'll understand. I just want you to know that I'm really worried about you."
Julia looked up to her mother, "I understand. I want to talk about it. You were very worried about me, it would be very selfish of me not to explain things to you."
Julia's mother nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Julia," then she sighed, "I just wished you would have trusted me with this earlier."
"I'm sorry. I just didn't know how to approach the subject." responded Julia.
Mrs. Martinez looked at Pyocomon, then looked at Julia. "I see what you mean."
There was a minute of silence, and then Julia spoke again. "Hum... I don't know where to start."
"Start from the beginning." answered her mother.
Julia nodded, "Okay... Mom, do you remember those strange news that we saw on the international news channel about three years ago? You know, that strange things that happened in Japan about Digimon?"
Mrs. Martinez nodded. She actually hadn't though about that much until she saw the news yesterday.
"Well, almost two weeks ago I found out that I'm a Digi-Destined." said Julia.
"What exactly does that mean?" asked Mrs. Martinez.
"Hum... its kind of hard to explain, mostly because I'm not really sure myself. It's kind of like I'm sort of a 'guard'. I have to make sure that Digimon that are in the Digital World, the world where Digimon are from, don't cause any trouble. Pyocomon here is my partner, every Digi-Destined or Chosen as they are called in other parts of the world, has a Digimon as his or her partner." Julia explained.
Mrs. Martinez took a minute for all that to sink in. It didn't come too big a shock since she was expecting something of the sort after seeing Julia on TV yesterday. "Okay, I understand... I think. But why you?"
Julia shook her head, "I don't know. All I know is that I was meant to be one."
"Can't you just stop being a Digi-Destined?" inquired Julia's mother, worried about her daughter's safety.
"I don't know. But think about it, if you had the power to help people, even if it got you in danger, would you rather not use that power just because its dangerous?" asked Julia.
Mrs. Martinez nodded. She knew that her daughter had a big sense of responsibility.
"Besides, every time she gets in trouble, David is there to help her," added Pyocomon from the side.
"Pyocomon!" Julia frowned at her Digimon.
"Who's David?" asked Mrs. Martinez, her curiosity getting the best of her.
Julia looked down once again. Every time she even though about David, she had to fight down the urge to cry. "He... he is the other Digi-Destined from Argentina." she finally replied.
Somehow this gave Mrs. Martinez some relief by knowing that Julia wasn't alone in this.
Julia continued, doing her best not to sob, it was for the better since she really wanted to talk to her mother about David and her, "I first met David when I went into the Digital World for the first time, about a week and a half ago."
"A week and a half? Wasn't that when you didn't show up for that hockey match?" asked Mrs. Martinez.
Julia nodded. "David saved me from a hungry Digimon then. At first he seemed a very cold person, he wouldn't talk too much to me, and he kept telling me that I should just forget about being a Digi-Destined and stay home. I didn't know why he was the way he was till after I got back, after Pyocomon here talked with David's partner, Candmon."
"And what did they talk about?" asked Mrs. Martinez.
"David's past, mostly." Pyocomon replied Mrs. Martinez question.
Julia nodded, "David had it really rough being a Digi-Destined. His parents were still in high school when he was born, he always felt like they hated him. And when he was in the Digital World, he had to run away all the time from Digimon that wanted to kill him. After watching how an evil Digimon burned down and killed every Digimon at a village he was staying at, he just lost it and killed the Digimon."
Mrs. Martinez placed a hand over her mouth, "Oh my god... that poor kid. How old was he when that happened?"
"He was twelve." answered Julia.
Twelve!? Mrs. Martinez couldn't help but to feel sorry for this David kid. "Where... where is he now?"
"In the Digital World. He has lived there ever since. In fact, last night was the first time he came back to the real world after three years." explained Julia.
Again there was a moment of silence. Julia was a little afraid at how her mother would react after she told her the next thing. Building up the courage to tell her, she spoke. "Mom, I... I'm in... I mean I..."
"What is it dear? You can tell me, it's okay." said Mrs. Martinez with a smile.
"I'm in love with him." Julia finally blurted out
Mrs. Martinez was shocked when she heard Julia's words. "What was that?"
"I'm in love with him." Julia repeated, calmer this time.
"Are... are you sure about that? I mean, do you really know for sure that you love him?"
Julia nodded, "Yes, I am. I don't even know why I care about him so much... I can't explain how I feel, I just do."
Mrs. Martinez looked at Julia, then closed her eyes and sighed a little to calm herself. If what Julia said was true, then she knew that indeed her daughter was in love with this David person. She really hadn't expected to talk about this with her daughter, maybe in a year or two, but not now. She was only thirteen, she was too young.
"Well, have you told him how you feel?" asked Mrs. Martinez.
Julia looked down again, hiding her eyes from her mother so she wouldn't see the small tears starting to form. "Yes... I did."
Mrs. Martinez nodded, not sure if she should ask the next question because of the way Julia was talking, "And what did he say?" she asked anyway. She had to know.
"He..." Julia had o choke down a sob, "He said he was sorry, and then he left." She finally managed to answer.
Mrs. Martinez winced; Julia was just entering puberty and had her first rejection.
"What should I do, Mom?" asked Julia, looking up, her eyes were watery but she wasn't crying yet.
"I'm sorry, Julia, but I can't answer you that. Only you can. Do what you heart tells you to do." replied Mrs. Martinez.
Julia nodded slightly and gave her mother a ghost of a smile. "I'm going back to my room." she said, standing up and walking out of the kitchen. She hadn't eaten breakfast yet, but she really wasn't hungry.
Mrs. Martinez saw her leave, then she saw that Pyocomon was about to jump off the table to follow Julia. "Wait." Mrs. Martinez said to the pink Digimon.
Pyocomon stopped and turned to look at Julia's mother. "Yes?" she asked, a little worried at what she might say to her.
Mrs. Martinez took a second to speak, trying to find the exact words she wanted to say. "Please... take good care of Julia." she finally said.
Pyocomon was surprised at this, then she smiled and answered. "I always do." Pyocomon couldn't help but feel happy that Mrs. Martinez trusted her like that.
Mrs. Martinez smiled and nodded at the baby Digimon. After that, she saw Pyocomon jump off the table and towards the direction Julia had walked off to.
After she was left alone, Mrs. Martinez took another sip of her coffee. Thinking about what she should, and what she shouldn't tell her husband about the conversation she just had with Julia. She didn't understand everything going on with her daughter and planned to have more talks in the future. She had raised Julia to be responsible which was why she had been hard on the girl when she failed to go to the field hockey game.
Mrs. Martinez didn't know what to do about all of this except to be there for Julia when she needed help. There seemed to be no easy answer to any of this. One thing was for certain, she wanted to meet this David person, who stole her little girl's heart and then broke it.
================================
Pyocomon walked into Julia's room, and saw Julia sitting on her bed. She was staring at her D-3 in her hands.
The small pink Digimon walked over and sat next to Julia on the bed. "Are you thinking about him?" asked Pyocomon.
Julia nodded, but remained silent.
"What are you going to do?" asked the baby Digimon.
"I want to see him." replied Julia in a low voice, almost a whisper. "I want to see David one more time." She spoke louder this time.
Pyocomon could see Julia's face from where she was sitting, she could see her partner crying, no longer able to hold her tears in.
"The last time we talked," continued Julia, "it was just after the battle, just after David lost control, I... I don't want to remember him like that. I have to see him again, even if he doesn't feel the same way I feel about him."
"Then why don't you?" asked Pyocomon, "you have a D-3, so use it."
"I know, I just..." Julia couldn't continue.
"You're afraid at what might happen if you see him again?" asked Pyocomon.
Julia nodded silently.
"Well, like your mother said, I can't tell you what you should or should not do. But I can tell you this; if you don't go, you might end up regretting it for the rest of your life." said Pyocomon.
Julia stayed silent for a few seconds, then she clutched her D-3 tightly and, taking a deep breath, she stood up. A determined expression on her face. "You're right Pyocomon."
Julia didn't even bother to change out of her pajama when she walked over to her computer on her desk and held her D-3 close to the screen. "Digiport open!"
A bright light engulfed both Julia and Pyocomon, as they were absorbed into the Digital World.
===============================
Julia looked up as she saw David's log house just a few feet ahead. Piyomon had turned back to her child form once she was back in the Digital World. Digi-Destined and Digimon partner walked up to the door of David's house in the Digital World.
Julia was just about to open the door, when she heard David and Candmon talking inside. She didn't know exactly why, but instead of opening the door, she listened to the conversation.
When Candmon had woken up after the Christmas invasion he saw that he was back in the Digital World, and that David was already asleep. So he had decided to go back to sleep and wait for David to wake up to talk about what had happened back there in the real world.
David and Candmon woke up a couple of hours ago, and there's when Candmon learned what had happened. They were now to the point were David told his Digimon what had happened with Julia just after the fight.
"She said she loved you!?" asked a surprised Candmon.
David nodded, "Yeah."
Candmon was silent for a second, "And... what did you say?"
"I... I told her sorry and then I came back here before she could respond." answered David, his head downcast.
"What!? Why!?" Candmon was more surprised at hearing that. "David, I KNOW you have SOME feelings for Julia. I'm not stupid, you think I didn't notice the way you looked at her every time she came over to visit?"
David looked away, trying to hide from Candmon the fact that he was blushing. "Yeah, so?"
"So? You love Julia too, why don't you just admit it!" exclaimed Candmon.
"Maybe... I do care about her... a lot... I would gladly die for her. But..."
"But what?"
"But I don't know if what I'm feeling is love... I... I don't know what love is."
When she heard David's words, Julia started crying. She now understood. David had grown up alone, with no one to teach him the basic elementary facts of life and love. All he knew from life was pain and suffering. He felt love, but didn't know what it was, or how to express it.
Not able to stand out there any longer, Julia opened the door.
David and Candmon turned to look as the door opened, and they were surprised when they saw Julia and Piyomon standing there. Julia was still dressed in her pajamas and it seemed like she was crying.
"Ju... Julia... how... how long have you been there?" David stuttered out.
"For long enough to know how you feel about me." Julia answered flatly, and then she rushed over to David and hugged him as hard as she could.
David was surprised at this; he didn't return the hug right away. "Julia..."
Julia placed a finger on his lips to silence him, she was still crying, but they were tears of joy now. "I understand, David. I'll show you love. I'll teach you."
David was going to say something but Julia silenced him again, this time with a kiss. David was shocked at first. Being with no human contact for three years, and then having his first kiss... it was too overwhelming. But after the initial shock was over, instinct took over and he returned the kiss in earnest, as if he was trying to make up for the last years.
By now Candmon and Piyomon had left the house, leaving the two Digi-Destined alone.
With some reluctance, Julia broke the kiss. David has kissed her back, but he never forced the issue more than that.
David looked at Julia in her eyes, "Julia... I can't let you be with me."
Julia tilted her head, a little confused. "Why not?"
"I... I'm a murderer... you saw what happened back at the real world. Even after I promised you that I wouldn't kill anymore, I lost control and I almost killed innocents. I'm dangerous, you should stay away from me. I can't let you be with me..." he looked away, tears in his eyes, "I care about you too much."
Julia turned David's head gently with one hand, "If you really care about me, then let me help you. It hurts me even more to see you suffer."
Julia leaned in to kiss him again, the kiss is more passionate now. A minute later, they break the kiss.
The warm feeling that Julia felt all over her body when she was alone with David came again, a thousand times stronger. Her cheeks were flushing, she hugged David again and kissed him one more time.
This time, the kiss seemed to go on forever. Julia hugged David tightly, trying to feel every single inch of his lips pressed on hers. Soon she was rubbing her entire body over his. She wasn't wearing a bra under her pajama, so she was sure that David could feel how her nipples had gotten hard trough the fabrics of his shirt and her pajama. Julia's hands were running all over David now, and she could feel his hands doing the same. She almost moaned into the kiss as she felt a bugle at the crotch of David's pants.
Then, all of a sudden, David pushed Julia away as fast as he could.
"David?" Julia's cheeks were red, and she was panting from excitement now, why had he pushed her away? They were just getting into the best part.
"I'm sorry, Julia, but I just didn't like where this was heading," said David, he was also blushing and panting. "Don't get me wrong, I find you really attractive and everything. But we're too young. You might get pregnant, I don't want to do the same mistakes that my parents did."
Julia groaned inside, she wanted to continue, she really did, but she knew that if she really loved David, then she would respect his decision and leave it at that. She always though it was the girl who said she didn't want sex.
The young teenage girl couldn't believe how aroused she was right now. And she was sure that David was feeling almost the same. It must have taken the boy a lot of willpower to break them apart when he did. Then she noticed that both Piyomon and Candmon were gone, where could those two be?
=========================
Behind some bushes in the forest near David's house.
Piyomon could feel the afterglow of her most recent encounter with Candmon.
She hadn't been in the mood when she had come back here, she was more concerned about Julia's conversation with David.
But Candmon seemed to ALWAYS know what button to push, she turned to putty in his hands; Candmon was VERY good at this. He managed to get her off twice before he did.
Piyomon couldn't even believe how this whole thing started. She had made love with Candmon for the first time the day after he and David fought off that Dinohumon. One minute they were just talking, and the next thing the pink bird knew she was screaming her lungs out from a mind shattering orgasm. She hadn't planned on it to happen, it just did.
After that, they had intercourse every time she and Julia came to visit.
Piyomon slowly stood up, her legs still felt a little weak from what she just went trough.
"Let's go, we better see how our partners are doing." said Candmon, and started to walk away towards David's house.
Piyomon looked at him leave, then sighed and started to follow him a second after.
=========================
David was walking Julia back to the monitor where she would get back to the real world. Both their Digimon were following them close behind.
Piyomon and Candmon were both surprised when they saw that David and Julia were holding hands as they walked. It seemed that things had worked out well for the two Digi-Destined.
Soon, they reached the monitor. Julia took her D-3 from her pajama pocket, but before she opened the Digiport, she looked back at David.
"See you later, David."
"When will you come visit me again?" asked David.
"I don't know, maybe tomorrow. You know, you can also come visit me if you want." said Julia.
David looked down, "Thank you, but I rather not... I still don't feel comfortable going to the real world."
"Why are you so afraid of the real world?"
David looked away, "I don't know."
Julia sighed, "David, I need to ask you a favor. I will help you with everything I can, but you need help, help that I cannot give you."
"What do you mean?"
"My uncle is a therapist, I would like for you to talk to him."
"Julia..."
"You don't have to answer right away, just promise you'll think about it. Okay?" asked Julia, with almost pleading eyes.
David looked at Julia and nodded, "Okay, Julia, I'll think about it."
Julia smiled and nodded, then she looked down at her Digimon. "Piyomon, let's go."
Julia placed her D-3 in front of the monitor, "Digiport open!" Soon a flash of light engulfed her and her Digimon partner as they were transported back to the real world.
She and David had taken the first step, where did it take them only time will tell.

Author's notes:
This chapter was really hard to write, I had a lot of trouble at the beginning. I knew what I wanted to do, but I wasn't sure on how to write it down.
About Candmon being VERY good, as Piyomon stated: Yes, he had done it before, but you'll have to keep on reading to find out more.
*****************************
And now for a little extra... PERSONA'S FUN FACTS ABOUT ARGENTINA!
The composer of the main theme of the Mission Impossible original series (you know, the one that plays when that fuse goes off) was composed by an Argentinean. His name was Lalo Schifrin, you can see his name in the credits at the end of the original series.

Pyocomon could see Julia's face from where she was sitting, she could see her partner crying, no longer able to hold her tears in.
"The last time we talked," continued Julia, "it was just after the battle, just after David lost control, I... I don't want to remember him like that. I have to see him again, even if he doesn't feel the same way I feel about him."
"Then why don't you?" asked Pyocomon, "you have a D-3, so use it."
"I know, I just..." Julia couldn't continue.
"You're afraid at what might happen if you see him again?" asked Pyocomon.
Julia nodded silently.
"Well, like your mother said, I can't tell you what you should or should not do. But I can tell you this; if you don't go, you might end up regretting it for the rest of your life." said Pyocomon.
Julia stayed silent for a few seconds, then she clutched her D-3 tightly and, taking a deep breath, she stood up. A determined expression on her face. "You're right Pyocomon."
Julia didn't even bother to change out of her pajama when she walked over to her computer on her desk and held her D-3 close to the screen. "Digiport open!"
A bright light engulfed both Julia and Pyocomon, as they were absorbed into the Digital World.
===============================
Julia looked up as she saw David's log house just a few feet ahead. Piyomon had turned back to her child form once she was back in the Digital World. Digi-Destined and Digimon partner walked up to the door of David's house in the Digital World.
Julia was just about to open the door, when she heard David and Candmon talking inside. She didn't know exactly why, but instead of opening the door, she listened to the conversation.
When Candmon had woken up after the Christmas invasion he saw that he was back in the Digital World, and that David was already asleep. So he had decided to go back to sleep and wait for David to wake up to talk about what had happened back there in the real world.
David and Candmon woke up a couple of hours ago, and there's when Candmon learned what had happened. They were now to the point were David told his Digimon what had happened with Julia just after the fight.
"She said she loved you!?" asked a surprised Candmon.
David nodded, "Yeah."
Candmon was silent for a second, "And... what did you say?"
"I... I told her sorry and then I came back here before she could respond." answered David, his head downcast.
"What!? Why!?" Candmon was more surprised at hearing that. "David, I KNOW you have SOME feelings for Julia. I'm not stupid, you think I didn't notice the way you looked at her every time she came over to visit?"
David looked away, trying to hide from Candmon the fact that he was blushing. "Yeah, so?"
"So? You love Julia too, why don't you just admit it!" exclaimed Candmon.
"Maybe... I do care about her... a lot... I would gladly die for her. But..."
"But what?"
"But I don't know if what I'm feeling is love... I... I don't know what love is."
When she heard David's words, Julia started crying. She now understood. David had grown up alone, with no one to teach him the basic elementary facts of life and love. All he knew from life was pain and suffering. He felt love, but didn't know what it was, or how to express it.
Not able to stand out there any longer, Julia opened the door.
David and Candmon turned to look as the door opened, and they were surprised when they saw Julia and Piyomon standing there. Julia was still dressed in her pajamas and it seemed like she was crying.
"Ju... Julia... how... how long have you been there?" David stuttered out.
"For long enough to know how you feel about me." Julia answered flatly, and then she rushed over to David and hugged him as hard as she could.
David was surprised at this; he didn't return the hug right away. "Julia..."
Julia placed a finger on his lips to silence him, she was still crying, but they were tears of joy now. "I understand, David. I'll show you love. I'll teach you."
David was going to say something but Julia silenced him again, this time with a kiss. David was shocked at first. Being with no human contact for three years, and then having his first kiss... it was too overwhelming. But after the initial shock was over, instinct took over and he returned the kiss in earnest, as if he was trying to make up for the last years.
By now Candmon and Piyomon had left the house, leaving the two Digi-Destined alone.
With some reluctance, Julia broke the kiss. David has kissed her back, but he never forced the issue more than that.
David looked at Julia in her eyes, "Julia... I can't let you be with me."
Julia tilted her head, a little confused. "Why not?"
"I... I'm a murderer... you saw what happened back at the real world. Even after I promised you that I wouldn't kill anymore, I lost control and I almost killed innocents. I'm dangerous, you should stay away from me. I can't let you be with me..." he looked away, tears in his eyes, "I care about you too much."
Julia turned David's head gently with one hand, "If you really care about me, then let me help you. It hurts me even more to see you suffer."
Julia leaned in to kiss him again, the kiss is more passionate now. A minute later, they break the kiss.
The warm feeling that Julia felt all over her body when she was alone with David came again, a thousand times stronger. Her cheeks were flushing, she hugged David again and kissed him one more time.
This time, the kiss seemed to go on forever. Julia hugged David tightly, trying to feel every single inch of his lips pressed on hers. Soon she was rubbing her entire body over his. She wasn't wearing a bra under her pajama, so she was sure that David could feel how her nipples had gotten hard trough the fabrics of his shirt and her pajama. Julia's hands were running all over David now, and she could feel his hands doing the same. She almost moaned into the kiss as she felt a bugle at the crotch of David's pants.
Then, all of a sudden, David pushed Julia away as fast as he could.
"David?" Julia's cheeks were red, and she was panting from excitement now, why had he pushed her away? They were just getting into the best part.
"I'm sorry, Julia, but I just didn't like where this was heading," said David, he was also blushing and panting. "Don't get me wrong, I find you really attractive and everything. But we're too young. You might get pregnant, I don't want to do the same mistakes that my parents did."
Julia groaned inside, she wanted to continue, she really did, but she knew that if she really loved David, then she would respect his decision and leave it at that. She always though it was the girl who said she didn't want sex.
The young teenage girl couldn't believe how aroused she was right now. And she was sure that David was feeling almost the same. It must have taken the boy a lot of willpower to break them apart when he did. Then she noticed that both Piyomon and Candmon were gone, where could those two be?
=========================
Behind some bushes in the forest near David's house.
Piyomon could feel the afterglow of her most recent encounter with Candmon.
She hadn't been in the mood when she had come back here, she was more concerned about Julia's conversation with David.
But Candmon seemed to ALWAYS know what button to push, she turned to putty in his hands; Candmon was VERY good at this. He managed to get her off twice before he did.
Piyomon couldn't even believe how this whole thing started. She had made love with Candmon for the first time the day after he and David fought off that Dinohumon. One minute they were just talking, and the next thing the pink bird knew she was screaming her lungs out from a mind shattering orgasm. She hadn't planned on it to happen, it just did.
After that, they had intercourse every time she and Julia came to visit.
Piyomon slowly stood up, her legs still felt a little weak from what she just went trough.
"Let's go, we better see how our partners are doing." said Candmon, and started to walk away towards David's house.
Piyomon looked at him leave, then sighed and started to follow him a second after.
=========================
David was walking Julia back to the monitor where she would get back to the real world. Both their Digimon were following them close behind.
Piyomon and Candmon were both surprised when they saw that David and Julia were holding hands as they walked. It seemed that things had worked out well for the two Digi-Destined.
Soon, they reached the monitor. Julia took her D-3 from her pajama pocket, but before she opened the Digiport, she looked back at David.
"See you later, David."
"When will you come visit me again?" asked David.
"I don't know, maybe tomorrow. You know, you can also come visit me if you want." said Julia.
David looked down, "Thank you, but I rather not... I still don't feel comfortable going to the real world."
"Why are you so afraid of the real world?"
David looked away, "I don't know."
Julia sighed, "David, I need to ask you a favor. I will help you with everything I can, but you need help, help that I cannot give you."
"What do you mean?"
"My uncle is a therapist, I would like for you to talk to him."
"Julia..."
"You don't have to answer right away, just promise you'll think about it. Okay?" asked Julia, with almost pleading eyes.
David looked at Julia and nodded, "Okay, Julia, I'll think about it."
Julia smiled and nodded, then she looked down at her Digimon. "Piyomon, let's go."
Julia placed her D-3 in front of the monitor, "Digiport open!" Soon a flash of light engulfed her and her Digimon partner as they were transported back to the real world.
She and David had taken the first step, where did it take them only time will tell.

Author's notes:
This chapter was really hard to write, I had a lot of trouble at the beginning. I knew what I wanted to do, but I wasn't sure on how to write it down.
About Candmon being VERY good, as Piyomon stated: Yes, he had done it before, but you'll have to keep on reading to find out more.

And now for a little extra... PERSONA'S FUN FACTS ABOUT ARGENTINA!
The composer of the main theme of the Mission Impossible original series (you know, the one that plays when that fuse goes off) was composed by an Argentinean. His name was Lalo Schifrin, you can see his name in the credits at the end of the original series.
