Raven allowed herself to be carried by the flow of commuters and tourists into North Station's waiting room. Her mind kept racing back to what had happened on the train. Why did she see him? What did he want?

"Hello, earth to Raven." Raven looked up at her "stuffed animal." "Are you sure you're okay? I mean first there was that thing on the train and now your zoning out."

"Uhh yeah I'm fine." Change the topic Raven, you can't let him know. McDonalds that's it. "Hey Terriermon, ya hungry?"

The digimon looked into her eyes one last time before answering. "Yeah I'm hungry, aren't all digimon? Can we stop at that McDonalds? Can we? Can we?"

"How bout we take the subway to Copely and you can have you favorite treat."

"Yeah, granola yogurt!"

The two exited the station and walked down the narrow walkway to the subway.

"Last one the's a rotten egg!" Terriermon screamed as her prepared to jump off Raven's shoulder. "You know, you're the most talkative stuffed animal I've ever seen." Raven said grabbing Terriermon by one of his ears and pulling him back on her shoulder.

"Momentai, funspoiler."

"Okay fine we can just turn around and take it easy at the beach."

"No thanks."

"What, you don't want little kids pawing all over you with their grimy fingers screaming A digimon! A digimon!."

"I'll pass."

"Okay you can be quiet now, stuffed animal." She took him down from her shoulder and carried him like a little kid would as she entered the subway.

Smiling, awkwardly she placed her tokens in the turnstile and slid through.

"What, have they never seen a 13 year old carrying a stuffed animal on a public transit system before?" She asked her digimon as they walked down to the inbound platform. "I wouldn't put it past them."


"Hawkmon, were should I deploy A23?" Veemon asked looking down at the digimon.

"Tracking.... and....... I'd say 14,300, or somewhere in that block."

"Okay then. Raven Tachina, in 10 minuets I'll finally get to see what you're made of." Veemon turned back to his computer cackling under his breath.


Raven looked across her at the old subway map singing the song on her headphones softly to herself.

"Takaku takaku tobe kaze o kirisai de

Tsuyoku tsuyoku nare kagayaku mirai e

Takaku takaku tobe kumo o norikoete

Tooku tooku yuke shiranai sekai e"

The song stopped just in time for her to hear the train grind to a halt. They sat for a few seconds, moved, sat again, moved again and so on until the train reached Copley Station.

Raven picked up her stuffed animal and exited the train along with several other pissed commuters. She walked up to the surface ignoring their strange looks.

"Huh." she dropped Terriermon at the ground beside the crosswalk. "You can walk for now cause I think that if I get another odd look about my stuffed animal I'm gonna hit somebody."

"Dude momentai." The two walked through the double crosswalks leading up to the mall/hotel.

Inside it was normal, the mini waterfall with a escalator heading straight behind it. Before getting on the escalator she took an old MBTA token out of her pocket and flipped it into the waterfall's base muttering "May Chelsea and her posse die on a cold, smelly, subway train somewhere."

"What?" Her digimon looked up at her.

"Oh nothing. Come on before they eat all the granola."


"Okay so that's two granola yogurt..... for you?" The sales lady looked at Raven questioningly.

"Oh yeah, one of them's for my mom and she's sick so I had to go down and get it for her."

"Why didn't she just use room service."

"That's because she's erm omish. Yeah that's right omish. I persuaded her to come into the city with me but she won't touch the phone. Says it's pure evil."

"Okay here's your receipt. Thanks for stopping in at City Gate Café and Deli, I think."

Raven walked over to the table back in a corner, where Terriermon was sitting.

"Finally, that took long enough."

"You can thank Miss I-don't-think-thirteen-year-olds-should-be-buying-two-yogurt for that."

The two ate in silence for a few minutes enjoying their long overdue breakfast. Raven relaxed and focused only on getting the granola on her plastic fork and listening to bits of other peoples conversations.

Somebodies mom was getting married, Old Man Smitty died last week, their bagel had mold on it, the fog was rolling in fast. All normal.

"Wait a sec." Raven looked up from her food. "Did that lady just say the fog was rolling in fast?"

"Yep." Terriermon responded without even looking up.

"Do you think?" Raven started but was cut off by a sharp beeping noise coming from her belt.

"Showtime!" Terriermon hopped onto Raven's shoulder as she took her D-Arc from her belt.

"What did I tell you about using those The Incredibles quotes?" Raven asked.

"Hey they were on those Pringles. You know, once you pop you can't stop."

"We can argue about that horrid movie later. Right now a wild one awaits us." Raven exited the building and looked around for the thickest fog.

"Great the subway." Terriermon complained.

"We can only hope it's on the surface this time."

"One way to find out." Raven pulled light blue tinted sunglasses over her eyes as they entered the digital field.

Sure enough a digimon was there terrorizing innocent citizens like always. Raven held out her D-Arc.

"He's Assaultmon. An ultimate level digimon. His attacks are Justice Massacre and Surprise Attack. This looks like a worthy opponent. Let's get him Terriermon!"

"Okay then." Terriermon jumped off Raven's shoulder onto the top of the subway covering.

Assaultmon focused his attention on the small digimon.

"Justice Massacre!" He reared his guns backward and opened fire on Terriermon. Terriermon jumped off the shelter just in time, as it disappeared behind him.

"Bunny Blaster!" The attack ricocheted off the digimon's armor.

"Something tells me that I'm gonna need some help to beat this guy." Terriermon screamed to his tamer as he dodged Assaultmon's random punches into the ground.

"One combo coming up!" Raven grabbed her deck from her bookbag. "Hmm, this should work."

"Card Slash! Power Activate! Card Slash! Hyper Wing Activate!

White wings blossomed from Terriermon's body as her gently floated up into the air.

"Now finally, Card Slash! Platinum Sword Activate!"

Terriermon used his newfound strength to wield the sword above his head. "You want a piece of me?" He asked the opposing digimon as he dodged blows from the air.

"Come on, get him!" Raven watched her little digimon fight. He was so brave . If you judged him by his size you would never realize that.

"Let's see how you like this." He drove the sword through Assaultmon's gun barrels, rendering them useless.

Assaultmon let out a cry of fury. "Surprise Attack!" He leapt into Terriermon sending him flying to the ground, upgrades gone.

"Raven, I need to digivolve!" Assaultmon hovered over him preparing to launch the final attack.

"Card Slash! Digivolution Activate!"

Digivolution

Terrirermon digivolve to....

Raven watched as a green light encircled her digimon.

Gargomon!

The green light disappeared leaving Gargomon floating in midair for a few seconds with green particles all around him. He dropped to the ground and immediately started running at Assaultmon using the shock of his digivolution to his advantage.

"Bunny Pummel!" Gargomon's gatling arm crashed into the side of Assaultmon's face with a thud. The digimon fell over sideways, paralyzed with pain.

"Now Gargomon finish him off! Card Slash! Power Activate!"

Gargomon jumped on top of Assaultmon and with a small click unloaded all of the bullets his gatling arm had.

Assaultmon glowed red for a moment before disintegrating into data. Gargomon loaded his data glowing a faint green.

With a tired sigh from Gargomon the green light engulfed him again. After a few seconds Terriermon's small body fell downward and Raven ran to catch him.

"Did I do good?" He asked Raven from her arms.

"Yes, you were perfect."

"But, ya know what?"

"What?"

"I never got to finish my breakfast."


"Not bad." Veemon watched the fight clip over and over again.

"That's only the start of what those two are capable of." Veemon turned around to see Agumon again.

"How do you intend we find out her true potential?"

"You'll see." Agumon turned and walked away again leaving Veemon to collect his thoughts.
