Itami: But she wishes she does!

Ee! Where'd you come from? -stuffs in box- bis;

Chapter 3

"You!" The small girl shouted, pointing to Kai.

Kaida looked surprised. "W-what?"

The girl sighed. "Let him digivolve! You know I can't.. you have to!" Kaida struggled. She was worried. Only a week ago, Kaida had made her entrance to the Digital World. The first thing she saw was… Kotemon. It was her only friend in the lonely place; would she even take a risk of losing him? The decision was hers. Her arms dropped, letting the struggling Kotemon fall onto his feet. You couldn't see his face, but it was as if you could tell he was smirking. This was his moment to shine.

Kaida whimpered. "Kotemon digivolve to!" He was taken up into a light green light, swirled around. He had pointy armor around his shoulders, long chain mail running down his arm. Red gloves covered his entire hand, with his legs and part of his head. His eyes were deep red, surrounded by a dark black. Strapped to his back was a long sword (at least for his height) seethed into a purple case. "Ninjamon!" The would-be Kotemon called out, feeling a bit proud of himself. It was all up to him.

She bit her lip, wanting to race up to him and hug him, whisper to him, tell him to stay back. The girl hated fighting. She felt an arm slung around her shoulders, pulling her down a little. First reaction was to jump back, but she looked down, and there was the girl. "I know this is hard, but you're going to have to face it sometime. I just can't believe it's so early..." Kaida noticed a laptop hung around her neck. She smiled, and slung her arm around the small girl.

Ninjamon was their last hope, and he knew it too. Luckily, Apemon was already weakened. Another bone swung at him, he quickly dodged it and looked up. "Ninja Hopping!" He shouted, and jumped up. He bounced off the trees, rebounding each time. It was slightly like an agility attack, but the digimon swung him off one of the trees, and kicked Apemon square in the chest. He fell backwards, even angrier then before. "You haven't had enough?" He said, with a sharp, confident voice.

"Haha!" It laughed wildly. "You treat me as if I'm a rookie." He scoffed and quickly thought up an attack. "Metallic Fur!" He cried, and the feather looking fur became sharp and gold. They shot off him, replaced by new feathers. Ninjamon dodged one, and was struck by the other one.

"No worries," The digimon brushed himself off, his voice dripping with boldness. Kai's face brightened. There wasn't even a sign of Ninjamon being weak. Good. "Ninja Knife Throwing!" He shouted, letting a blue light slide into his hands, to reveal two sharp knives. With a kick into the air, he tossed them at Apemon, who only dodged one of them. The large ape began to de-digivolve into Tanemon. He had a soft, round face with green leaves lowering over his head. His eyes were large and red, his feet small and sharp. The adorable little smile faded, and it bounced away, looking as if nothing had happened.

DoruGamon twitched a little, and opened his eyes slowly. He de-digivolved back to Dorumon, slowly. He felt sore, and his whole body ached. Grumbling, Doru slid off Bish, who was still unconscious. The loyal Digimon dug his head under his partner, sliding him onto his back. "Uh..." Bish grumbled, picking his head up a little. "Dorumon?" He inquired, flatly. His head fell back down, and his eyes closed again.

"Well that's just great!" Kaida said, crossing her arms tightly. "Our first battle! Oh yeah, we won. But now what? Our leader isn't conscious, and Ninjamon had to risk his life to save them. Things are hopeless! I wish I could just go back home and never think of this again. I hate this. Why me?"

The small girl grunted, feeling like she should slap Kai and get her back into reality. Or whatever this was. Instead, she used her words. "Shut up! Don't you get it? We can't leave. We're supposed to be here and beat the evil in the Digital World, we can't let it sit here and rot. I don't know who chose you, but I know that it was for a reason. Now snap back into it! We cannot lose."

Kaida hung her head and sat down on the grass, and leaned over. She couldn't hold them back, the tears slowly rolled down her cheeks, making her eyes red and puffy. Everything the girl had said, she knew. It was all true; Kai just didn't want to admit it. Shut up, she thought angrily, I hate this! Stop crying, Kai! Stoppit.. Ninjamon de-digivovled to Kotemon. The small samurai with long sleeves walked over to Kaida and fell into her lap.

"Kaida, I need you here. Please do not leave!" The girl's hair got into her face, not the perfect straightness it used to be. "Please?" Kotemon asked slowly, looking up into her face. The small girl stood behind the two, with a cross look on her face.

"Fine. Let's go." The small girl rolled her eyes and let out an exasperated sigh. "Though.. first… Let me introduce myself." Kai rubbed her eyes and ran a hand through her hair. "I'm Kaida or Kai, and this is Kotemon." She sniffed and pointed to the horned Digimon. Kai pushed her glasses up, they were falling over the edge of her nose.

"Genevieve. Just call me Gen, though." The small girl chirped, Koemon clung to her leg. Her purple hair was short and smooth, until the back where it spiked out. She had a small heart on her left cheek, bright pink. Gen's skin was very pale, eyes a striking gray. A small, purple tube top with darker stripes. The Destined's pants were white and long, flaring at the ends. They folded over black shoes, sometimes catching the heels. Two wristbands rounded the top of her left arm, only one on her right, down at her wrist. On her right hip was a silver pocket watch. And, like she mentioned before, a small laptop hung over her neck.

Kai sucked in her breath, and pointed a wobbly finger. "What?" Gen giggled. "I'm not that scary." The tall girl shook her head and motioned that she was pointing behind her. Gen cautiously turned around, biting her lip. "Get off of him!" She yelled, furiously, ready to attack the older boy looming over Dorumon and Bish.

"Why?" The boy screamed, standing upright. Genevieve and Kaida stood straight. He seemed a bit angry. "So you can carry him off to get him hurt more!"

Gen took a step towards him, slamming it down onto the ground. "Genny, don't! Look.." Came Koemon's sweet voice from below. She tugged on her partner's leg.

Dorumon had let the boy take Bish into his arms. "Don't worry!" He smiled. "He's Bishop's older brother, Itami. Do not be alarmed." Itami now had Bish into his hands, cradling the unconscious sibling.

"Who are these people, Dorumon?" He asked, frowning.

Doru looked up, his chipper smile still there. "The other Destined."

Itami took a step back, his brown eyes widening. He did look a lot like Bish… "Well that's too bad! I'm taking him, he is in danger. Look what you've done to him!" Itami wailed, still backing up. Kaida snapped.

"What do you know, huh! You weren't here, were you? No, you were gone. You didn't help! You did not see your brother's courage, his bravery. You don't know a thing!" Kai shouted, her fist in the air. Itami laid Bish down against Dorumon and walked up to Kaida. He didn't say a thing, his face was angry. No, it wasn't angry. He was just trying to protect his brother… Kaida softened. How sweet. She felt like hugging him, until his next action. Itami slapped her, not hard, but it was a slap. Right in the cheek.

"How do you know about Bish's bravery? You don't know him… You don't! I have to protect him, it's my duty as his older brother. Now, if you don't mind"

Gen bit her lip. "Please… we can help. We're all Destined here, we came from the same world. Itami, give us a chance?" The boy sighed and hung his head. Everything that had happened before. Running through the forest, the slamming of Bish's Bokken on his shoulder. He glanced at his younger brother. The wooden sword was still in his hand. Itami shivered and nodded.

"You're… right."

Oos; End! Hehe. Itami is sooo cute, is he not? Ohoh. I know, the slapping reminds you of Miyako and Hikari, does it not? Oh, well. I think so. Since it took so long to update, and you've been such awesome reviewers (Flaring Star-Saber, midnight breezy o) I've decided to put some character profiles out there. Some of it is still being worked on, so sorry if it's sloppy. xD Enjoy!

Gen is strong-willed and maybe a bit stubborn, but her other qualities make up for it.
