Sora's Little Sister
Chapter 4: Life with the New Sister
Last time, Annemarie (Sora's little sister) just caught up with an 'Old Friend'.
"Annemarie, I'm here to take you back onto my side! No more questions!" Devimon shouted and threw a Black Gear at Annemarie.
"Sora!" Annemarie screamed.
Of course, Sora was behind the tree, she ran in front of Annemarie and punched the Black Gear out of its miseries.
"Argh! The bearer of Love is here!" Devimon barked because he was so close at getting Annemarie back.
"Sora! I thought you walked into the forest!" Annemarie shouted in shock.
"Let's say I always keep an eye out for you," Sora said.
"Hah! You don't know who is she is!" Devimon yelled assuming that Sora never met Annemarie.
"Yes I do! She is my little sister and I have the responsibility to protect her!" Sora shouted, confirming her relationship with Annemarie.
"…Hah haha ha ha! You have the responsibility to protect this brat! Strong words for a powerless human!" Devimon bellowed.
"Oh, so you call me a weakling. Never underestimate your opponent Devimon," Sora inquired.
"Try me," Devimon said.
"EXECUTE, SPIRIT EVOLVETION! THUNDERLIONMON!" ThunderLionmon shouted, preparing her spear for action.
"Maybe I did underestimate you Sora, but that new form won't stop me," Devimon said devilishly.
"Want to bet on that?" ThunderLionmon asked and jumped into the air. Annemarie glared at Devimon and was pretty furious at him.
"THUNDER STOMP!" ThunderLionmon shouted and her right foot had small sparks around it. Devimon flew backwards and the attack missed.
"Argh! You fiend!" ThunderLionmon barked. Devimon just whistled with glee.
"Sor…ThunderLionmon, Devimon is trying to get you angry, calm down!" Annemarie commanded. ThunderLionmon didn't listen to Annemarie's orders.
"THUNDER SPEAR!" ThunderLionmon shouted and threw her spear. Devimon did the predictable dodging technique and ThunderLionmon missed again! The spear hit the tree behind Devimon.
"Grrr, that's it! You're going to get Fractal Coded for all I care!" ThunderLionmon barked with frustration. She couldn't stand much more of Devimon's game so she skidded towards her spear.
While that was happening Devimon was flying behind ThunderLionmon. ThunderLionmon has no idea Devimon was hot on her trail.
"ThunderLionmon! Behind you!" Annemarie warned.
"What? ARGH!" ThunderLionmon screamed as Devimon dug her claws into her skin (No blood was gashing out).
"TOUCH OF EVIL!" Devimon shouted and dark energy was going into ThunderLionmon. ThunderLionmon wasn't turning evil; she was getting her energy drained.
Suddenly she was flying towards Annemarie and ThunderLionmon went back to her human form. ThunderLionmon's spear disappeared straight after the retransformation. Sora was rolling towards Annemarie when she came to a sudden stop.
"Sorry…Annemarie, I…couldn't save you," Sora said weakly.
"No! BIG SISTER!" Annemarie yelled. There was a glow coming from Annemarie.
"What! How can you make yourself glow when you have the Crest of Hate?" Devimon asked in shock. Annemarie received a D-Tector and realised what to do to save her sister.
"EXECUTE, SPIRIT EVOLVETION! LANAMON!" Lanamon shouted.
"Another boring warrior. Can't you two do better than that?" Devimon asked rudely.
"Oh yes we can!" Lanamon answered and ran to the right of Devimon. Sora got up slowly and saw Lanamon running to her left.
"Huh? Annemarie? Are you a legendary warrior?" Sora asked herself.
"WATER BLASTER!" Lanamon yelled. The attack soaked Devimon.
"Grrr, take this! EVIL WING!" Devimon shouted.
"Argh!" Lanamon screamed and was knocked back.
"Now take that for soaking me!" Devimon barked.
"THUNDER BOLT!" An unexpected person shouted.
"What? Sora is… AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Devimon screamed. Since Devimon was soaked Sora could do heaps of damage to her enemy. Devimon broke out of the attack and flew in the air.
"I'll get you next time Takenouchi Sisters!" Devimon shouted and flew away. Lanamon turned back into Annemarie.
"Thanks for saving me Sora," Annemarie said, running up to her older sister.
"That's what older sisters do," Sora said.
"How do we get back to Earth big sister?" Annemarie asked.
"If that damn…Hey! Nice timing talking computer!" Sora shouted, just noticing the portal back to Earth. The Takenouchi sisters jumped into the portal.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Back at ScienceTech, the Digidestined were with Sora's family and Biyomon to see the how the blood test experiment went. The group just arrived back at the Takenouchi's lab when Kciker was searching for Sora.
"Hey Dad! Have you seen Sora?" Kciker asked.
"No, I haven't son," Machette said.
"She must be around here somewhere," Tai suspected.
"Sora might be abducted by monsters, or even worse, ALIENS!" Joe yelled in his worried tone.
"Joe, aliens don't exist. Izzy just thinks they're real. But there're not real," Mimi said.
"Hey! I heard that!" Izzy shouted.
"Well, you kids can talk to each other while I get Biyomon's blood test example," Lindsey (Sora's dad) said and walked to the place of where he kept Biyomon's blood.
"Sora could be playing hide and seek with us," T.K. suggested.
"If I know Sora well she might be having an adventure," Matt guessed.
"Well, she is pretty adventurous," Kciker agreed.
"Wherever Sora is I hope that she's…" Biyomon said.
"Whoa!" A voice shouted from the talking computer.
"I think we know where our friend is," Kari said and followed the voice.
"Ow, thanks for the landing, jerk," Sora said, repeating what she said in Chapter 3. Annemarie was no where to be seen!
"Sora, what have you been doing?" Machette asked.
"I've been to the Digital World," Sora answered honestly.
"I knew you went on those adventures of yours!" Matt shouted, realising his suggestion was correct. Sora got up and there was Sora's little sister, hiding behind her big sister like she was shy.
"C'mon, I'll help you up," Sora said and grabbed Annemarie's hand and pulled her up.
"Thanks," Annemarie said.
"Can you explain who that girl is?" Izzy asked.
"Uh…Sure, she's my…" Sora said nervously.
Lindsey just was walking over with Biyomon's blood only to see there was someone familiar to him.
"Wait a minute," Lindsey interrupted.
"What is it Uncle Lindsey?" Kciker asked.
"You look familiar to me. Are you that girl?" Lindsey asked Annemarie and put Biyomon's blood on the test tube rack.
"Yes. I'm back," Annemarie said.
"It's really you! I missed you so much!" Lindsey shouted and came up to his youngest daughter and hugged her.
After a minute they father and daughter stopped hugging each other. Lindsey sat back on his chair near Biyomon.
"Who's that Lindsey?" Biyomon asked Lindsey, who had tears of joy on his face.
"Sora will tell you," Lindsey cried.
"This girl…She's my…my…" Sora said nervously.
"It must be hard for her to say this father," Kciker whispered to his Dad.
"Yes, it will be hard," Machette whispered.
"My little sister," Sora said and finally spat out the truth.
"YOUR WHAT? YOU HAVE A LITTLE SISTER! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US BEFORE?" Joe asked really loudly.
"I never knew I had a little sister in my life Joe," Sora said.
"Tell me my second daughter, do you have a name?" Lindsey asked.
"Wait! You didn't give her a name! But why?" Machette asked his younger brother.
"I let someone special name her," Lindsey answered.
"Yes. My name is Annemarie," Annemarie introduced, answering her dad's question.
"Did anyone name you or did you name yourself?" Lindsey asked. Annemarie pointed to Sora.
"Sora! You actually named her! I'm so proud of you!" Lindsey shouted and hugged his oldest daughter.
"Dad! You're embarrassing me!" Sora yelped. Lindsey stopped hugging her after that moment.
"But Sora, I'm really proud of you. I never thought you'll accept Annemarie when you were two years old! Why did you name her?" Lindsey asked, still having a very big smile on his face.
"I named her as she was kidnapped by those masked men, I managed to shout her name to little sister and she has treasured the name that I gave her," Sora explained.
"Well, you have done the Takenouchi family proud," Lindsey said and put his hand on Sora's shoulder.
"Thanks dad," Sora said. Lindsey walked back to his chair.
The Digidestined could not believe it! They realised a new member has joined their group.
"It's very hard to believe Sora. But I do believe you," T.K. said.
"Thanks little dude," Sora said.
"By the way Annemarie, how old are you?" Kari asked.
"I'm nine years old," Annemarie said.
"Well guys, we better accept Annemarie, after all, she's like us," Tai said.
"But are you sure she has powers?" Izzy asked a very interesting question.
"She has, she helped me beat Devimon with the Powers of Water," Sora said.
"Hey! But I have those powers too!" Joe barked.
"Let's just say me and Sora are a force not to be reckoned with," Annemarie said. Sora laughed.
"Annemarie! That was really funny!" Sora shouted and was giggling away.
"Mmm, there's something missing in this relationship of yours Sora," Lindsey said.
"What is it Dad?" Sora asked.
"You two haven't hugged each other yet, haven't you?" Lindsey asked.
"Never hugged each other!" The Takenouchi Sister shouted in unison.
"Well, I guess that's true. You better hug each other right now," Lindsey suggested.
"You're right Dad; we haven't hugged each other in our lives, as sisters," Sora admitted.
"C'mon, you can do it!" Biyomon shouted.
The Digidestined and Sora's family was looking at the sisters. The sisters turned to each other and breathed hard.
"Well, we have to hug each other at least once in our life. We're sisters, after all," Sora said, trying to raise Annemarie's confidence.
"I haven't said anything yet, of course I'll hug you!" Annemarie shouted and jumped into Sora's arms. The sisters finally had their first hug together (Aw…). The hug lasted ten minutes which has defiantly made up for lost time. The sisters separated from each other.
"Whew, that made me feel good about myself. Thanks sis," Sora said.
"No problem," Annemarie said.
"Well, we should find out about Biyomon's blood test. Shall we?" Lindsey asked.
"Yeah! So what is Biyomon's blood type?" Izzy asked and took out his laptop.
"Biyomon's blood type is a rare AB1," Lindsey announced.
"What's AB1 type like?" Biyomon asked.
"It's a blood type my grandfather had. Very rare blood type Biyomon, only a few people in the world have it. But we did find out that Digimon have blood," Lindsey replied.
"Yeah, that's the main thing Uncle Lindsey," Kciker said.
----------------------------------------------------------------
At dinnertime, Lindsey, Biyomon, Sora and Annemarie came home after a long day at ScienceTech. Sally (Sora' mum) was cooking dinner in the kitchen when she heard the door creaking open.
"Is that you Lindsey? You can come in!" Sally shouted and she put the plates on the bench.
They foursome walked into the house. Sally noticed Annemarie immediately.
"Sora, who's that?" Sally asked.
"It's Annemarie, she's your youngest daughter mum," Sora said.
"OH MY GOD! MY BABY!" Sally screamed and hugged Annemarie.
"Mum, you're embarrassing me!" Annemarie shouted. Sally let go of Annemarie.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't expect you to come. Did Sora save you with her new powers?" Sally asked.
"Yes, she did," Annemarie said.
"Let's have dinner! I'm starving!" Sora shouted.
"Oh, one more thing Sally. Here's my anniversary gift to you," Lindsey said and showed Sally a diamond ring.
"Lindsey, thank you!" Sally shouted and hugged her husband. Lindsey gave Sally the ring and she was happy.
"It's Mum and Dad's wedding anniversary, that's why Dad's giving Mum a diamond ring," Sora whispered to her confused sister.
"Thanks Sora," Annemarie whispered back to her older sister.
----------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning Sora was wide awake and was ready for a huge event.
"Hey sister," Annemarie called and was half asleep.
"Yes Annemarie," Sora replied.
"Why are you in that uniform?" Annemarie asked.
"I'm part of a soccer team. It's the Grand Final, Tigers vs. Grasshoppers," Sora said, putting on her boot (I know the Grasshoppers is a lame name but it was the only one I could think of).
"What team are you on?" Annemarie asked.
"I'm on the Tigers!" Sora shouted.
"How do you play soccer?" Annemarie asked.
"Well, you have two teams and they have to shoot goals to win the game. They have to shoot to the opponent's goalkeeper. You're not allowed to use your hands, but you can use many parts of your body to pass the ball to your teammate. The goalkeepers are the only players that can use their hands. That's all the basic rules," Sora explained.
"Are you really good?" Annemarie asked.
"We reached the Grand Final. It's the last game of the year. Of course I am good Annemarie," Sora answered.
"Why do you have a number at the back of your jumper?" Annemarie asked, pointing to the Number 3 on the back of Sora's jumper.
"Oh, that's to tell whenever I have broken the rules or not. Also the Captain of the team wears Number 1 jumper. The umpires also wear jumpers, normally they have Number 2 jumpers on them," Sora explained.
"Sora! It's nearly 9 o'clock! Hurry up!" Lindsey commanded from the front door of his apartment.
"Coming!" Sora shouted, grabbed her bag and ran to her Dad. Annemarie decided to follow Sora.
At the front door, Lindsey was checking if Sora got everything she needed.
"Awesome, you did a great job preparing for this," Lindsey said.
"Dad, can I watch?" Annemarie asked.
"But Annemarie, you should stay with Mum," Lindsey recommended.
"Let her come Dad, she has asked me a few questions about soccer. Please Dad, please let her come," Sora pleaded.
"Alright, be good Annemarie," Lindsey warned. Annemarie nodded.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Lindsey drove the sisters to the Soccer Stadium, where the Grand Final is held.
"This is it girls," Lindsey said, turning the car engine off.
"Wow, it's huge," Annemarie said in awe.
"What do you expect Annemarie, it's the Grand Final," Sora said and rushed into the stadium. She saw her coach and her team.
"Sora! Come here!" Sora's coach commanded. Sora ran towards her coach and the team.
"Hey Sora, I thought you weren't going to make it," A familiar voice said.
"Tai, be quiet, I have a good strategy, listen up kids," The coach said and his team (Tigers) went into a huddle.
Meanwhile, Annemarie and Lindsey were sitting in their seats.
"You think Sora would win Annemarie?" Lindsey asked.
"I bet it would be a close match Dad, I mean, look at those Grasshoppers. They look like they want to bash my sister's team up," Annemarie said.
"Annemarie! You have eyes like an eagle! The Grasshoppers and Tigers had a long history of rivalry and this is the first time they had to go up against a girl. So they don't know Sora that much," Lindsey replied.
"I thought Sora had participated in more Grand Finals," Annemarie said.
"This is her first one. Last year Sora had a broken leg after a rough Semi-Final," Lindsey explained.
"Ouch, that must hurt," Annemarie said.
"I know, I'm worried about her because these Grasshoppers play rough and get away with it," Lindsey said.
"Like when those masked guys kidnapped me when I was a baby," Annemarie said.
"Yeah, like that time. Only you're much safer," Lindsey reassured.
----------------------------------------------------------------
About ten minutes later the soccer Grand Final was about to begin. Sora and Tai was on the field in attack.
"Listen, I'll go midfield, you stay here," Tai whispered and ran closer to the centre of the field.
"Tai! Oh why do I bother," Sora sighed. The umpire blew the whistle and the ball was kicked to Tai. He ran down the field and kicked a goal right after three seconds.
"Yeah! I rule!" Tai shouted and was running around the field.
40 minutes later, it was half time. Sora was in one of the rooms when Tai came up to her.
"Hey Sora," Tai called.
"Yes Tai, what do you want?" Sora asked.
"Is your sister here?" Tai asked.
"Yes she is. I hoped she likes the sport I play," Sora said.
"This is your sister's first time in the public eye Sora. You better keep an eye out for her," Tai recommended.
"Don't worry, my Dad is keeping an eye out for her today," Sora said.
"Kids, it's time to go back on the field! Tai! Sora! I want you two to be in the midfield!" The coach shouted.
"Yes coach!" Tai and Sora shouted in unison. They Tigers and the Grasshoppers went onto the field. The score was 3-3 and the stage was set.
"Hey Sora, you're doing the kick off at the centre," Tai whispered.
"Thanks," Sora said and took her position. The umpire blew the whistle and Sora kicked it to her teammate straight away.
About 49 minutes and 50 seconds later Sora looked at the clock on the board. The score was Tigers 6- Grasshoppers 6.
Ten seconds to score a goal to make it a victory, let's hope we know what we're doing, Sora thought nervously.
The umpire blew the whistle and Tai kept the ball at his feet. He was running downfield with an opponent gaining on him. Sora was running about three meters away from Tai.
"Tai! Kick the ball to me!" Sora commanded.
"No! I won't, not while I can score!" Tai shouted and kept on running. Sora kept on giving pursuit on Tai and the Grasshopper player.
The Grasshopper player was right next to Tai when they were fifteen meters in front of goal. There were five seconds left.
"Hey Tiger geek!" The Grasshopper player shouted and tackled Tai. Tai accidentally kicked the ball in Sora's direction.
This is my chance to shine! Sora thought as the ball was heading straight to her head. Sora head butted the ball to the goal.
Unfortunely for the Grasshoppers there goalkeeper missed out of blocking the ball. Sora shot the goal. The umpire blew his whistle two times to signify Full Time.
"It's over!" Tai shouted getting his head off the ground. The score was Tigers 7 and Grasshoppers 6. The Tigers won the Grand Final.
"You won us the game Sora!" One of the Tigers players shouted.
"Thanks John," Sora said. The Tigers carried Sora off the field because she head butted the winning goal.
"Go Sora!" Annemarie cheered from the crowd. Sora gave the thumbs up to her sister. The Tigers dropped Sora to the ground when they presented themselves to the coach.
"Great job Sora, the team's proud of you," The Tigers coach said.
"Thanks," Sora said.
"There will be a presentation for us winners so I bet you guys can't wait for that," The Tigers coach said.
----------------------------------------------------------------
After the presentation Sora was in the locker room, having two medals in her name. One for winning the Championship and the other for being the player of the match. She was getting her bags when her dad and sister came.
"Sora, you won the match for the Tigers! You are really good!" Annemarie shouted and ran up to her sister.
"Thanks sister," Sora said, putting the bag over her shoulder.
"Let's go home," Lindsey said and walked out of the rooms.
----------------------------------------------------------------
At Sora's apartment, Sally had got box that was familiar to Annemarie's eyes.
"Hey Mum, did you get the GameCube that I wanted?" Annemarie asked.
"I did Annemarie and I got a second controller for Sora, if you two want to team up together on those games," Sally replied.
Oh great. I never knew that Annemarie likes video games. Oh well, I just have to get used to it, Sora thought.
"Hey Sora, you want to watch me?" Annemarie asked, inserting the memory card into the gaming console.
"Sure, I like to see how good you are," Sora said and sat on the couch in front of the T.V.
Annemarie turned the power on and she was ready to show her sister how good she is at video games. The game she was playing was Super Smash Bros. Melee.
"Have you ever played video games before?" Sora asked.
"Yes, I've played this one before. It's a very funny fighting game," Annemarie said while giggling. She was playing tornament mode and she chose the character 'Ness'.
"This is my favorite character. He's called Ness. He can recover from elemental attacks when using a special attack. I might unlock a character you like," Annemarie replied.
After the first area of tornament mode Sora was laughing.
"This is a fun game after all!" Sora shouted while laughing.
"Mmm, looks like Annemarie and Sora are having fun," Sally said, watching her two daughters laughing together.
After an hour Annemarie unlocked some new characters. She went into multiplayer mode and chose 'Ness' as her character.
"Hey Sora, have a try," Annemarie said, giving the controller to Sora.
"Oh no way. I have never played a video game in my life," Sora denied.
"I'll teach you, it'll be fun. I promise. Plus, we can be a team," Annemarie mentioned.
"Awesome! Count me in!" Sora shouted and grabbed the controller. She chose 'Roy' (He's my favorite too) as her character.
"I'll choose the computer players we battle," Annemarie said and chose the characters. Annemarie chose 'Peach' and 'Captain Falcon' as their opponents.
"Are they tough?" Sora asked.
"Peach isn't but Captain Falcon is the fastest character in the game, so be careful," Annemarie warned.
"Ok," Sora agreed.
After the video game battle the girls were laughing as they annihilated the computer opponents.
"Why did we win so easily?" Sora asked while giggling.
"The computer players were only set to Level 1 difficulty. Plus, 'Roy' has a One-Hit-KO move up his sleeve. So you actually chose a good character," Annemarie explained.
"Thanks Annemarie," Sora said.
"No problem, it's what little sisters do," Annemarie said.
"Are you two having fun?" Biyomon asked, who just soared into the room.
"We are, it's fun spending time together, as sisters," Sora said.
"Well, I'll watch you both!" Biyomon shouted and sat between the Takenouchi sisters. The girls and Biyomon laughed while playing the game. In mist all that laugher, Sora stopped and thought about Annemarie.
The one thing that I learnt from Annemarie is Video Games can be fun, if you like them or not. She has also taught me about sisterhood and how responsible I am for her. Thanks Annemarie, you have a huge heart, Sora thought happily.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in the Digital World, Devimon, Etemon and the Dark Masters were spying on the Takenouchi sisters.
"Both of them are getting to know each other so well. But too bad we have to break into their relationship," Piedmon said with anticipation.
"Yes, they know each other well, but Sora doesn't know Annemarie as well as us," Machinedramon said.
"I have a plan. We'll kidnap Sora or Annemarie, which one will be the best to kidnap?" Puppetmon asked.
"I think Annemarie, she's supposed to destroy her older sister," Devimon suggested. The other evil Digimons agreed.
"So it's agreed we'll kidnap Annemarie and it'll be a lot of fun for us, considering when Sora finds out the truth about Annemarie! Gwah haha hah ha ha!" Puppetmon laughed evilly.
To Be Continued…
This chapter was mostly about spending time together, it's what sisters do isn't it. And yes, blood AB1 is an actual blood type. Well, please review and I can't wait for the next chapter!
