CHAPTER FIVE: RENAMON'S HISTORY
"Renomon," Renamon said again.
"Yes Renamon, it is me," answered Renomon with a smile bringing the cloak back over his head.
"But…but how? How did you…survive?" Renamon inquired.
"That doesn't matter right now, what really matters is you Renamon," Renomon said, "I've missed you."
"I've…missed you too Renomon," Renamon said.
"I want so much to kiss that precious face of yours," Renomon muttered as he leaned closer to Renamon.
But before he was even an inch closer to Renamon's face, Renomon all of a sudden dropped Renamon and flipped backwards as something fast slashed across him.
Renamon rubbed her bare buttocks which were throbbing from the hard fall. Renamon then scratched her head before glancing up infront of her, only to let out a loud gasp for there was a fight going on.
A fight between the mysterious Renomon and a furious looking Wolfemon.
"Why are you attacking me you ignoramus!" shouted Renomon angrily dodging another attack by Wolfemon.
"Leave Renamon alone you fiend or else," Wolfemon growled warningly.
"Or else what? What can a pathetic creature like you possibly do!" scowled Renomon, "besides who are you to tell me to stay away from my precious darling sweet Renamon."
"Your Renamon!" Wolfemon growled heatedly, his fists shaking with fury, "why you filthy beast!"
Wolfemon formed a fire ball in the palm of his hands and was about to attack Renomon with it when…..
"No Wolfemon! DON'T ATTACK!" shouted Renamon forcefully leaping infront of Wolfemon.
Wolfemon immediately stopped his attack and abruptly his eyes softened at the sight of Renamon.
"Renamon. You're alright! Thank goodness," Wolfemon said gladly as he embraced Renamon.
"Yes Wolfemon, I'm fine," Renamon said returning the hug, "but please don't hurt Renomon."
"Renomon? You mean that ignorant thing," Wolfemon snarled pointing a finger at the hooded Renomon.
"Yes. Please don't hurt him," Renamon begged.
"Why shouldn't I?" Wolfemon asked suspiciously.
"Because he's with me," Renamon replied.
"He's….what!" Wolfemon shouted taken aback.
"He's with me," Renamon repeated, "Renomon is not a threat Wolfemon. Trust me, I know he isn't."
"You know him?" Wolfemon said still appalled, "how?"
"I'll explain that later," Renamon answered quickly, "but for now…please don't hurt Renomon."
Wolfemon glanced over at the hooded Renomon and then at Renamon, whose cobalt eyes were filled with beseech. Wolfemon then sighed. "Alright," he answered, "I won't harm him."
"Thank you," Renamon said smiling at Wolfemon gratefully.
"Renamon? Renamon! Are you okay?" Rika asked concernedly as she jumped on her digimon partner.
"Yes…Rika," Renamon managed to choke out, "I'm fine."
"Thank god," Rika said in relief as she let go of her digimon.
"You had us all worried back there Renamon," Henry said to the vixen digimon.
"Please! I wasn't worried about Renamon at all," said Kenta boldly.
"Right," said Ai and Mako sarcastically.
"Hey!" Kenta said staring down at the two twins. Both Ai and Mako grinned innocently.
"Anyway," Takato said changing the subject, "how did you escape that last spike Renamon?"
"I didn't Takato," Renamon answered honestly, "to tell you the truth, I was rescued."
"Rescued?" said Terriermon all of sudden flying on top of Renamon's head, "by whom?"
"Let me guess….Wolfemon?" asked Monodramon perceptibly. The other digimon giggled.
"Actually…no," Renamon said, "I was truly saved by Renomon, Monodramon."
"Renomon? What da heck is a Renomon?" asked Impmon.
"I believe Renamon was referring to me," Renomon explained, "Hi I'm Renomon."
Renomon extended a cloaked hand to shake Impmon's. Impmon just stared at Renamon's hand but did not shake it. Renomon observed Impmon's hesitance.
"Is there something wrong my small friend?" Renomon inquired under his cloak.
"Yeah, there is," Impmon answered, "sorry for being rude but I don't usually shake other people's hands before I see their face first."
"I beg your pardon," said Renomon slightly taken aback by Impmon's words.
"What Impmon clearly meant Renomon was to take off the cloak," Renamon explained.
"Oh my cloak," said Renomon understandingly as he removed the hood of his cloak.
But as Renomon revealed his face to the others, to everyone's (except Renamon's) astonishment, Renomon was a Renamon. Well he was not exactly a Renamon, but he did have some similar features to a Renamon. He had a mane just like a Renamon and he also wore the same pair of purple-coloured gloves on his arms. However although Renomon had the same exact characteristics of a Renamon, he still bore differences in colour and appearance. While Renamon was white and yellow in colour, Renomon was not. He was light brown and black in colour. Renomon was also an inch taller than Renamon and his eyes were crimson red instead of sapphire blue. And last but not least, while Renamon bore the Ying-Yang symbol on her gloves, Renomon's gloves bore the Alpha-Omega symbol.
Everyone (except Renamon) goggled in disbelief at how alike Renomon was to their vixen comrade, Renamon; and this really made Renomon feel uncomfortable.
"Um? Why is everyone all of a sudden staring at me?" Renomon asked uneasily.
"Sorry to stare Mr. Renomon," Guilmon apologized, "but it's just that……..
"You look like Renamon!" Terriermon blurted out finishing Guilmon's statement.
Renomon chuckled. "I know," Renomon said.
"But how is that possible?" questioned Guardromon.
"Isn't it obvious?" Renomon said, "Renomon are the males and the Renamon are the female."
"We don't get it," said Kazu and Kenta dumbly.
Rika sighed. "Don't you knuckleheads understand anything," Rika said harshly, "what Renomon meant was that Renomon are the masculine kind of their species while Renamon are the feminine, am I right?"
"Correct," Renomon replied.
"Oooh," moaned Kazu and Kenta understandingly, "we get it now."
"Right," Takato said raising his eyebrow at Kenta and Kazu.
"Wow! I have never seen a digimon as cool as you are," said Alex staring at Renomon.
"Alex, Renomon is just like Renamon only that he different in colour," Mia said to her little brother, "and besides stop staring at Renomon, it's impolite."
"Sorry," Alex apologized.
"It's okay," Renomon said.
"Whoo! Alex was right, you are cool," said Mako.
"Yeah, you're jwust as cwool as Wolfemon," Susie said.
"What's a Wolfemon?" inquired Renomon.
"That would be me," Wolfemon answered frowning.
"So you are Wolfemon," Renomon said glancing at Wolfemon, "I remember you; you're the one who tried to attack me early."
"Only because I thought you were harming Renamon," Wolfemon said calmly.
"Well I guess we have something else in common my dear friend. We're both, as they say, cool digimon and we both also care deeply for Renamon," Renomon said a smirk cracking on his face.
Wolfemon looked fiercely at Renomon and took a giant step towards him, only to feel Renamon push him backwards. Wolfemon glimpsed at Renamon who gave him a "knock it off" kind of look. Wolfemon snarled at this but remained calm afterwards.
"So Renomon, do you know Renamon?" inquired Jeri.
"Yes I know Renamon. I've known her for a long time," Renomon said smiling at Renamon.
"That's funny, Renamon's never told us anything about you," Henry brought up, "how do you two know each other?"
Renomon opened his mouth to answer Henry's question but Renamon interrupted him.
"It's a very long story Henry," Renamon answered, "a very…very…very long story."
"Really! Well I wouldn't mind hearing it," Wolfemon said to Renamon. Renamon shot back an angry frown at Wolfemon. Wolfemon just smiled simply at the vixen digimon.
"I wouldn't mind hearing your story either Renamon," Guilmon said, "I love long stories."
"So do I," Terriermon jumped in.
"Us too!" shouted Calumon and Marineangemon keenly.
"Yes Renamon, tell us your story," Rika said, "I really want to know how you and Renomon met."
"Well I….I guess I wouldn't mind telling you the entire story," Renamon said finally, "but I'll tell it once we get back to the park."
"Since you put it that way," Takato said, "Let's head back to the park!"
The other tamers and digimon agreed and began walking back to the park.
"Come on Renomon, let's go to the park," Lopmon said to the male vixen digimon, who had not moved from where he was standing.
"Er? I don't know where this park of yours is," Renomon said.
"Don't worry Renomon, it's just around those tree buildings, you can't miss it." Mia said gesturing up at three tall city buildings behind her.
"Alright, if you say so," Renomon said as he pulled the hood of his cloak over his face again. Renomon then bowed to Mia and with a whip of his azure cloak, he disappeared.
"Whoa! Where did Renomon go?" Mia asked.
"After you've given him directions, I'm sure Renomon is already there in the park waiting for us," Renamon answered with an impressed smile, "it was always like Renomon to always be ahead of things."
"Hmmm, that's sounds cool," Mia said a bit impressed herself.
Wolfemon snorted aggressively. "Showoff," he grumbled softly.
Renamon was indeed right about Renomon. Once the tamers and the digimon had arrived in the park, Renomon was already there, waiting for them infront of a tall oak tree. He was tapping his foot impatiently on the grass but Renomon wore a smirk on his face as he saw everyone.
Once they had settled down in their original picnic spot, the tamers sat down in their picnic table while the digimon sat on the grass. Renomon leaned by another tree while scanning the grass absently with his red orbs.
"Would you like something to drink Renomon?" asked Ryo offering Renomon a glass of cold lemonade.
"No thank you. I'm not all that thirsty," Renamon answered.
"Really? I thought you would be famished after your travel to Shinjuku," Ryo said resting the glass of lemonade back on the table, "which reminds me, where exactly did you come from Renomon?"
"I came from where all digimon come from," Renomon replied, "I came from the digital world. I traveled to here in the Real world from the domicile of the Foxwood Village."
"The Foxwood Village," Terriermon said, "that's…….
"Impossible!" shouted Renamon suddenly.
"Huh?" said everyone staring at Renamon.
"Renomon, the Foxwood Village was destroyed," Renamon said.
"Yes Renamon, it was destroyed," Renomon said, "but during the years, us Renomon and Renamon have migrated to safer grounds where we have rebuilt our habitat and developed a newer community."
Renamon was shocked. "I can't believe it," Renamon said, "the Foxwood Village has been….rebuilt!"
"Renamon, what's wrong?" Rika asked her partner concernedly.
"And what's the Foxwood Village?" Henry asked.
"You mean, you never told them Renamon," Renomon said surprised.
"Told us what?" asked Kazu.
"Renamon, what is he talking about?" Wolfemon said inquisitively staring at the fox-digimon.
Renamon stared at her hands absentmindedly and lowered her head.
"I ask again," Wolfemon said harshly, "what is Renomon talking about Renamon?"
Renamon finally look Wolfemon in the eye. "What Renomon meant was," she said, "is if I have ever told you all…..the story."
"What story?" Monodramon asked.
"The story….of my life," Renamon answered.
"Oh we all know that story Renamon," Terriermon said, "you came to the digital world looking for a tamer…you found Rika….yada… yada… blah…blah…blah!"
"Not that story Terriermon!" Renamon snapped at Terriermon. Terriermon jumped back in fright.
Renamon cooled down and softened to her rabbit-digimon friend.
"Sorry I snapped at you Terriermon," Renamon said apologetically, "it's just that…what I referring to was the other story of my life….my life before I found Rika and became her digimon partner."
"Really! Could you tell us?" asked Alex finding Renamon's story interesting.
"I rather not," Renamon answered sadly, "besides…neither of you will understand."
"We'll never know that until you tell us," said Takato.
"He does have a valid point Renamon," said Renomon, "they must all know for either of them to understand."
"You're right," Renamon said truthfully, "fine…I shall tell you all everything."
Renamon got off the grass and began pacing as she told everyone the whole story of her life.
"Before I found Rika … before I became a digimon partner ……before I even stepped foot in the Real world…..I lived in the digital world," Renamon explained, "I was born in the peaceful domicile of the Foxwood Village. The Foxwood Village was a place in the digital world where all Reremon and Foxenmon were born and raised to become strong Renamon and Renomon.. The years I spent in the Foxwood Village were the best years of my life; frolicking in the fields, playing with the other little Reremon and Foxenmon. It was a true paradise! But the best day of my life in the Foxwood Village was when I had witnessed the birth of my baby sister, Reremon,"
"You had a baby sister?" Terriermon interrupted.
"Yes, her name was Reremon," Renamon continued, "she was the most adorable Reremon in the whole village…at least to me that is. Reremon always use to look up to me as her older sister. I loved her very much, with all my heart and soul. But they say all good things come to an end. That's what happened to Reremon."
"What…happened to Reremon?" inquired Jeri.
"What happened to Reremon…she died! That's what happened," Renamon answered sadly, "Reremon was killed in the fire that destroyed the Foxwood village and the worst thing about it is, Reremon died because of me."
"That's not true Renamon," Guilmon said.
"No it is true," Renomon said, "Reremon did die in the flames that killed our home but…it's not your fault that she died Renamon; we both know who to blame. It's Firestegosmon."
"Firestegosmon! You mean the same Firestegosmon that rampaged through our city a moment ago," Takato said.
"Yes it was him," Renamon said frowning, "Firestegosmon was the real digimon who destroyed the Foxwood Village and killed my sister."
"You see everyone, Firestegosmon had come to our village one day and had demanded for us to give him all the food in our village because he was hungry," Renomon explained, "but being us Renomon and Renamon, we could not possibly give Firestegosmon all of our precious food so we denied his demand. But after that, Firestegosmon was furious. He told us that he would get his revenge on our village and he did. In the middle of the night of that same day, Firestegosmon had returned to our village but that time he had brought some other digimon with him : Ankylomon and Skullgreymon. Together, the three of them pulverized and burnt our village to the ground. The Renamon and Renomon of our village tried their best to fight off our three enemies but… they were just too strong for us. We were easy defeated."
"That sounds terrible," Mia said.
"It is," Renomon said disappointed, "most of my friends and family were deleted in that disgusting battle. It was the beginning of the fall of the Renomon and Renamon species."
"Man, that's…brutal," Kazu uttered.
"But Renamon, you never told us how your sister really died. I mean, how did she get near fire?" inquired Gabumon.
"She was trapped," Renamon answered, "trapped in the flames of our own home."
FLASHBACK………
Renamon: Reremon and I were asleep in out little hut when we heard the desperate cries for help from our fellow Renomon and Renamon. Realizing that my kind needed assistance, I went off to help them, leaving Reremon alone in our hut. That was the biggest mistake I had ever made. Once I had left Reremon by herself that was when Firestegosmon seized his chance to strike. He attacked our hut with a fireball and the whole place busted into flames, with Reremon in it, screaming for her life.
The poor little thing; she was trapped!
END OF FLASHBACK………
"I heard my sister calling for me," Renamon continued, "but when I had gone to save her, Firestegosmon had blocked my path and immediately attacked me. I was blown off the edge of a cliff by the attack. I could have heard the desperate screams of my sister and the loud laughing of Firestegosmon as I fell down but I did not know what happened next because the next thing I knew, I was knocked unconscious,"
Renamon stopped pacing. "But when I had woken up the other day," Renamon went on, "I had eagerly climbed the mountain to my village. But do you know what I saw?"
"Hmmm…a jar of peanut butter?" Guilmon suggested.
Guardromon nudged Guilmon in the ribs and Guilmon rubbed his rib cage. Luckily for Guilmon, Renamon did not hear what he had said for she continued to speak.
"What I saw," Renamon carried on, "was the end of the Foxwood Village. Everything was in ruins! The huts were burnt to ashes….the fields were trampled! Everything was destroyed! But the worst thing about it all was…there were no more Renamon and Renomon in sight. I was the only one there. I had searched everywhere in the ruins. But there were no sign of any Renamon….or Renomon and most horrible of all…no sign of Reremon. I was left alone…by myself and from that day, I had been forced to live a life of loneliness."
A single tear drop ran down the side of Renamon's face, her entire body trembling. "I had lost everything that day. My home….my family….my friends…EVERYTHING," Renamon said, "and I dreaded to ever think about that day again."
"Poor Wenamon," Susie said sympathetically.
"Poor Wenamon, is right." Henry said agreeing with his younger sister.
"That was such a sad story Renamon," Guadromon said, "oh…I think I'm gonna cry."
"Please don't," Kazu said in an annoyed tone.
"Geez Renamon, I didn't know you had such a horrible past-life," Impmon said, "and I thought I was the only one with problems like that."
"Why didn't you ever tell us about any of this Renamon?" asked Rika to her digimon.
"Because I had made a promise to myself," Renamon answered, "I promised myself that I would never recap on that terrible day. I said I would put my past behind me but…you know what they say: your past will always come back to haunt you in the end."
"Awh Renamon," Wolfemon said comfortingly as he placed his hand on Renamon's left shoulder.
Renamon beamed at Wolfemon.
"Yes. You poor dear," said Renomon placing his hand on Renamon's other shoulder. Renamon looked over and smiled at Renomon as well. Wolfemon glowered with envy at this.
"You know, this reminds me of something," Wolfemon said, "you never got to tell us how you and Renomon know one another, Renamon. Care to explain?"
Renamon went pale. "Well…uh? You see Wolfemon," Renamon stammered but she was interrupted by Renomon. "Oh no Renamon sweetheart, let me tell them." Renomon said gaily.
"Sweetheart!" Wolfemon grumbled silently, glaring at Renomon.
"You see my dear friends," Renomon said, "back in our village of Foxwood, there was a traditional rule. It stated that any Renomon and Renamon who were born on the same day should become mates. Both Renamon and I were born on the first day of spring in the digital world."
"You were both born on the same day," said Mako.
"So…does that make you too…" Takato trailed.
"Mates? Yes," Renomon answered keenly.
"Wow Renamon and Renomon, what a cute couple," said Ai gleefully.
"You know, never in my years would I have ever thought that Renamon could have a social life, now I know the truth," Rika said with a big grin.
"Yes, Renamon wasn't always the Renamon who liked relationships but…after she spent a day with me, she easily softened and we both fell in love, isn't that right Renamon?" said Renomon charmingly looking dreamily at Renamon while holding her hand.
"R…Right," Renamon answered smiling uneasily.
"Uh oh! This does not sound right," Lopmon whispered to Terriermon who highly agreed with her. Terriermon then glanced at Wolfemon, who seemed to have frozen in time, for he was standing as still as a stink with her eyes opened widely in shock.
"So…you and Renamon are……mates, right Renomon?" Wolfemon managed to choke out.
"Yes we are," answered Renomon still staring dream-eyed at Renamon, who looked uncomfortable.
"I see," Wolfemon said, "um…Renamon, could I talk to you for a moment…in private?"
"Sure," Renamon answered pulling her hand out of Renomon's grasp before following Wolfemon.
Renomon stared at Renamon and Wolfemon as they walked away from the group and narrowed his eyes in an envious glance.
"Did you want to speak to me Wolfemon?" Renamon said to Wolfemon.
The two digimon had been walking as far away from the others for the past fifteen minutes and after a long while Wolfemon had stopped with his back turned to Renamon.
Wolfemon did not answer Renamon's statement. Renamon stared at the wolf-digimon.
"Did you want to speak to me Wolfemon?" Renamon repeated.
"Yes…I wanted to talk to you Renamon," Wolfemon said alas in a harsh tone, "but I only have one thing to ask you. What kind of ridiculous folly are you trying to play on me!"
"What! What are you talking about Wolfemon?" Renamon said stunned.
"You know very well what I am talking about," Wolfemon answered turning to face Renamon, "I may be colorblind Renamon but I am certainly not deaf. Why didn't you ever tell me that you had another male digimon in your life!"
"What! You mean Renomon!" Renamon said appallingly, "Wolfemon if you are referring to Renomon then you are definitely wrong. I don't like Renomon."
"Really Renamon. You don't like Renomon and I was created yesterday," Wolfemon said sarcastically.
"That was not funny Wolfemon," Renamon said with a frown.
"I was not trying to be," Wolfemon said, "Renamon, if you don't like Renomon then why did he say that the two of you are mates and how much the both of you loved one another."
"That's because we were mates and we were in love with each other Wolfemon," Renamon blurted, "but the key word there is 'were' Wolfemon. Renomon use to be my mate and I use to love him but I don't anyone more because I've moved on and met someone better and that someone is you."
"Hmmm…you sure about that?" Wolfemon said as he began circling around Renamon.
"Of course I am," Renamon answered looking at Wolfemon strangely, "why do you ask?"
"Because I couldn't help noticing that you only kept giving Renomon that lovingly look of yours which…I thought you only gave me."
"What? I never gave Renomon any lovingly look!" Renamon said taken aback.
"Yes you did when you had first met him today," Wolfemon said, "you looked at him…happily…joyfully…as if you were really glad to see his face."
"Well…you were right about one thing Wolfemon," Renamon said rubbing her elbows, "I was very glad to see Renomon's face again."
"You…were?" Wolfemon said with slight disappointment in his tone.
"Yes I was," Renamon said, "it has been over four years since I have seen another Renomon, Wolfemon. After the Foxwood Village was destroyed, I immediately thought I was the last of my kind but now… I know the truth,"
Renamon then stared up at the sky. "Thanks to Renomon, I know that my kind still exist and that makes me real happy," Renamon continued, "happy that I am no longer the only Renamon in the digital world and that my kind still lives."
A happy teardrop ran down Renamon cheek but she ignored it as she continued to stare at the clouds distantly. "Don't you see Wolfemon? I am really happy?" Renamon said with a smile.
Wolfemon stared at Renamon for a while and did not utter a word. He then looked up at the clouds himself. "Well I am glad for you Renamon," Wolfemon said, "glad to see how much you care for your kind and…….
"Renomon," Renamon said ending Wolfemon's sentence, "I know you were going to say that."
Wolfemon gave a soft "humph" as he folded his arms and leaned against a tree, now glaring at the grass absentmindedly. Renamon could not help but smirk at this.
"You know Wolfemon; I could not help but notice myself that you might seem a little jealous that Renomon and I used to be so close and in love. Am I right or wrong?" Renamon said with the same smirk on her face.
Wolfemon's head snapped up and he looked directly at Renamon. "Me? Jealous of Renomon! Now that is an insult," Wolfemon answered, "there is no possible way that I am jealous of that digimon."
"Really! Are you sure about that?" Renamon said continuing to smirk.
"Yes I am," Wolfemon answered, "I am just angry at the fact that…you use to be so close with Renomon, probably even closer than you are with me."
"Oh Wolfemon, you know that's not true, don't you?" Renamon asked.
"Of course I know that," Wolfemon said, "but…….
"But nothing," Renamon interrupted placing a finger to Wolfemon's lips, "Wolfemon, there is no other male digimon out there that I care more about than you."
"Really?" Wolfemon asked.
"Absolutely," Renamon answered.
"Then…prove it." Wolfemon said.
Renamon smiled at Wolfemon as she wrapped her arms around Wolfemon's neck and pulled his face closer to hers. Renamon rubbed her cheeks against Wolfemon's while purring passionately. Afterwards, Renamon pulled away from Wolfemon and look at his face expression. Wolfemon had a goofy grin on her face and his cheeks looked rather flushed.
"Okay…you have made your point," Wolfemon said with the same goofy grin. Renamon giggled at this.
Wolfemon then reached out and grabbed Renamon by her waist before pulling her in to a tight embrace. Renomon giggled a bit more at the wolf's sudden case of action. Wolfemon smiled at Renamon's giggling as he leaned in closer to her. Seeing this coming, Renamon stopped her giggling and did the same. Both digimon leaned their faces closer and closer to one another, either of them slowly closing their eyes. Closer…and closer they got to one another………….
Nothing could have stopped them from doing what they were just about to do….well except for one thing!
"Renamon! Are you there?" asked a sudden familiar voice.
Quickly springing apart from each other, Renamon and Wolfemon looked around at their intruder only to find Renomon.
"Oh Renamon! Thank goodness, I found you," Renomon said pushing past Wolfemon to smile at Renamon.
Wolfemon snarled. "Hi Renomon, what seems to be the problem?" Renamon inquired.
"Oh nothing's a problem," Renomon answered, "I just needed to get away from that dinosaur fellow, Guilmon. He keeps nagging at me about something called peanut butter. But the way, what is peanut butter anyway?"
"Er? It's something that the humans in this world use to put on their food to make it taste better," Renamon answered.
"Oh! Sounds fascinating!" Renomon said keenly. Renamon smiled at him.
Renomon then glimpsed at Wolfemon, who was seemingly staring back at him coldly.
"Is there something the matter Wolfemon?" Renomon asked coolly.
"Yes there is something the matter," Wolfemon answered as he tried to keep his cool, "didn't they ever teach you not to interrupt other digimon in their private moments back at the Foxwood Village."
"Oh! Did I interrupt you and Renamon? So sorry!" Renomon apologized though with hint of mockery.
"You don't sound so sorry," Wolfemon said.
"Well I am," Renomon answered, "and by the way Wolfemon, didn't they teach you to forgive others where you were born."
"I wasn't born anywhere in the digital world," Wolfemon said serenely.
"Oh. Then I guess you were born in the wild with the other filthy beasts," Renomon said.
"Renomon!" Renamon said staring at the brown vixen digimon, shocked at his statement.
Wolfemon growled angrily and folded his tightly. "Why you audacious incoherent b…," Wolfemon began but he trailed off when there was an unexpected rustling in the bushes.
Wolfemon quickly reverted his attention to the bushes. "Who goes there!" Wolfemon yelled, "Show yourself this instant!"
"Momentie Wolfemon. It's only me," came the voice of Terriermon as he came out of the bushes.
Wolfemon stared at the rabbit-like digimon. "Terriermon, what are you doing here?" Wolfemon inquired.
"Why else would I be here? I'm here with a message, duh!" Terriermon answered, "Henry and the other tamers are packing up their picnic. They said that it is time for us to go."
"Thanks for the message Terriermon," Renamon said.
"You're welcome," Terriermon answered with a toothy grin.
"So I guess this is goodbye for now, isn't it Renomon?" Renamon said turning to Renomon.
Renomon sighed. "Yes, I guess it is," Renomon said sadly, "unless…you and I could meet sometime Renamon, you know… to talk about old times."
"That will be splendid," Renamon said delightedly, "when and where do you suggest that we should meet?"
"Hmmm…I don't know," Renomon said thinking, "how bout around midnight tomorrow night in this very park?"
"Tomorrow night?" Renamon said unsurely.
"My dear Renamon, you sound uncertain. Do you have some sort of other plans tomorrow night?" Renomon asked.
Renamon opened her mouth to answer but it was Wolfemon who spoke.
"Yes she does have other plans," Wolfemon answered.
"Really! Other plans with whom?" Renomon asked a bit stern in his tone.
"With me," Wolfemon answered taking a step closer until he was face to face with Renomon.
Renomon narrowed his crimson eyes at Wolfemon in a glare. "I see," he said, his eyes locked on Wolfemon.
"Wolfemon! Renomon! Please, do not do this," Renamon said pushing the two males apart. Renamon then looked at Renomon. "Renomon, I do have plans with Wolfemon," Renamon said, "but since it is you, I would make an exception."
"Are you saying that you will meet me?" Renomon asked.
"Yes I will," Renamon replied.
A smile cracked on Renomon's face as he looked at Wolfemon, who was now staring at Renamon in shock.
"What! But Renamon," Wolfemon said, "what about…our plans together?"
Renamon sighed sadly. "I'm sorry Wolfemon," Renamon said, "but I am afraid that you and I will have to postpone our plans for another second night. You see, Renomon is right. We do need to catch up on things and I really want to ask him many questions about my old home, the Foxwood Village,"
Wolfemon snorted aggressively and turned his back to Renamon angrily. Renamon sighed and placed her hand on Wolfemon's shoulder.
"Oh Wolfemon, don't you see. Getting answers about my home village is really important to me and talking to Renomon is the only way I can get them," Renamon said, "do you understand that?"
"Yes I do understand," Wolfemon replied glancing back at Renamon. Wolfemon then lowered his voice so only Renamon could here him. "But are you sure that this little meeting of yours is only for one night?" Wolfemon inquired softly.
Renamon chuckled a bit and nodded. Wolfemon then sighed.
"Then if it's only for one night then by all means… go ahead," Wolfemon said.
"Thank you Wolfemon," Renamon said gratefully hugging Wolfemon.
"You're welcome," Wolfemon said smiling a bit to himself.
"So…is it official? Are you and I going to meet or not?" Renomon asked.
"Yes Renomon, we will meet," Renamon answered, "at midnight tomorrow night in the Shinjuku Park."
"Splendid," Renomon said, "so until then Renamon?"
"Until then," Renamon answered.
Renomon beamed at Renamon before he whipped his cloak around him again and disappeared into thin air. Renamon stared after Renomon with a smile on her face and Wolfemon just sulked at this.
"And…….speaking of leaving. Don't you guys think that we should leave too," said Terriermon.
Both Renomon and Wolfemon jumped at the sound of Terriermon's voice.
"Terriermon, how long have you been there?" Renamon asked staring at the rabbit digimon.
Terriermon placed his hands on his hips "Hello! I have been standing here listening to you guys the whole time," Terriermon said, " I just did not say anything."
"Really? Now that is a first," Wolfemon said.
"Ha! Ha! Very funny Wolfemon," Terriermon said mockingly.
Renamon laughed at both digimon. "Ha! Ha! Come on you too, let's go," Renamon laughed walking past Terriermon and Wolfemon and heading back to the others.
Both Wolfemon and Terriermon glanced at one another and then at Renamon before following her.
