Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon. Damn it, I've been repeating this all chapters!

Notes: I've noticed that you've been wondering why this fanfic is lacking of characters. It is because I haven't fully watched Digimon Tamers yet! This fanfic represents 2 main characters that have the major role. Others have minimum roles such as Takato and his friends. By the way, Jeri and the two boys won't be participating much in this fanfic, okay?

Chapter 4

"Passion and Lust"

Love moves through the breeze that touches in each of people's hearts. It is soft, cool and warm at the same time. If there's no love, there's no breeze. You are not comfortable without the wind, are you? However, when there's zephyr, there is gust. Gust pushes you away, a strong wind, like that of a typhoon carrying heavy deluge with it. It destroys everything in its path. That, my friend, is lust. Will lust conquer ahead of affection?

"Alright, everybody ready to leave?" Takato asked as he opens the cabin door of Rika.

"Wait, I'm still packing my things. Why don't you go check on the others?" Rika replied.

"They are still having the last look in the beach—the beach! Darn! They should pack their things already!"

"Takato, why are you such in a hurry to get back home?"

"Something is wrong towards my presence, that's all."

Takato closed the door and hurries to the beach.

Rika has that weird look on her face thinking that something really IS going on. Despite from that, she has that bizarre presence as well.

When Takato arrived gasping for breathe at the shore, he glimpsed at his four friends stretching and running around the sandy beaches.

"Looks like they're not in a hurry to go home yet." Takato sighed to himself.

Henry was gathering seashells while Jeffrey and Matthew are still playing around like a pair of children. Jeri was sitting on the sand staring at the hermit crab going in and out of its hole. Ryo was just standing there looking at the bright sun shining above them.

Takato gave a yell to them far away but they can't seem to hear him.

"You guys! Pack up your things!" Takato shouted, "It's time to go!"

Henry turned his head and saw his friend shouting like a drunken person.

"What? It's still early in the morning." Henry whined.

Takato walked closer at them and said, "That's the point, the sooner we leave, the sooner we arrive!"

"Takato, you are such a kill-joy person." Jeri teased.

"Could we have five more minutes?" Jeffrey asked as Matthew splashed him with salt water. "Hey, you!"

Takato sighed and voiced, "You must hurry."

"We'll be there, buddy." Ryo agreed.

Takato left them behind and went back to his cabin.

"Hm…" Ryo suspected with his hand touching his chin.

Takato's House

"Not again!" Guilmon whined as he took a Guilmon Bread from his basket.

"We might as well do some warm-ups in the digital world in order to improve our skills." Renamon uttered as she stole Guilmon's food from his claw and threw it back in the basket. "If we're going to lay around like this, we might get weaker."

"Momentai, Guilmon!" encouraged Terriermon. "We're just going to have some exercise, you see!"

"But I don't want to!" bleated the hard-headed reptile, "I want to stay here!"

Renamon wrapped her arms around Guilmon's shoulder and whispered, "Come on, you silly dinosaur, you don't want a burden like me suffer in times of danger, do you? Don't you want to protect me?"

Guilmon smiled and said, "Of course I will protect you because I love you so much, Renamon!"

Guilmon pushed Renamon and kissed her in the lips tightly.

Terriermon was shocked and speechless as the two digimons held each other firmly and kissed as affectionate as rose.

"Wh-what are you two doing!" Terriermon asked in a faint voice.

Guilmon let go of Renamon and turned to the young terrier and said, "You still haven't noticed it, have you? We're in a sturdy relationship!"

Terriermon gasped and fainted down on the floor with his mouth opened wide.

"Are you sure about this, Guilmon?" asked Renamon. "Terriermon is not quite ready yet to know about this."

"He'll be fine. What else is there to hide anyway? Besides, aren't you proud to show the world about our affection?"

"Of course I am, you silly reptile!"

Renamon smooched Guilmon again on the lips and the two fell down on the floor squashing Terriermon compactly. Ouch.

The trio arrived at the park. It's awfully quiet and peaceful, they thought.

The ignored such environment and concentrated on the portal. They sensed it over to the east, so they motioned there and waited for the portal to appear.

A large wormhole suddenly popped out guessing the three digimons that the hole connecting to the digiworld is open.

They hold hands and were sucked right in to it arriving in the digiworld badlands.

"This is not what I am expecting to land on." Renamon complained.

"It's still digiworld, though, so let's start pumping some strength" persuaded Terriermon.

They heard a loud cry from behind and glanced over it.

"Ogremon…" Guilmon deduced.

"He looks pretty sarcastic to me." Terriermon doubted as if he's just teasing the Ogremon.

"No, I think he's serious about it." Renamon said as she leaped up aiming for Ogremon.

When the wild digimon raised its head, he could see Renamon's feet getting closer at his face.

With Ogremon only staring above him, Renamon let out a piercing bash with her feet on the ogre's forehead causing him to collapse on the ground pretty badly.

The vixen just uncurled herself and let out a sheer grin mumbling, "too easy to take."

The ogre quickly got up and charged on Terriermon.

The terrier jumped and yelled, "Bunny Blast!" letting out a large green ball rushing to hit Ogremon.

It was successful and critical. Although Ogremon might turn out to be a weak one, Guilmon looks anxious.

"Um, that's the spirit, you guys!" the dinosaur acted like he's fine.

Ogremon got up once more staring in an evil look at Guilmon.

The reptile didn't hesitate but let out a burning ball of fire shooting against Ogremon.

However, it's disappointing to say it missed, and Guilmon did not turn out so well as the wild digimon keeps on battling him. He seems weak for such an easy-to-kill creature.

Renamon was worried when Guilmon started to feel unconscious, so she leaped out, stretching her arms wide yelling, "Diamond Storm!" and summoning millions of tiny shining dust from her body.

It stroke Ogremon and he finally retreated away.

Guilmon was lying on the surface holding his thigh with a poor look on his face.

Renamon approached him and asked, "Are you ok, Guilmon?"

The reptile just felt embarrassed of himself and replied, "I'm just fine."

"Wow, I don't know you got injured pretty badly." Wondered Terriermon as he stares at the scratches on Guilmon's arms and legs.

"Well, it's not something to worry about." Guilmon lied as he pulled himself up. "I'm perfectly fine."

"Looks like we need more training." Renamon suggested. "It's been weeks since we last fought."

Guilmon just realized that he's been concentrating too much on his love affair with Renamon that he intended to ignore his strength and capabilities.

"I-I need to look for a place where we can rest." Guilmon excused himself.

The two nodded as Guilmon disappeared on the horizon. Renamon has that weird feeling that something might happen.

Henry's parents with the van they got fetched Takato and his friends. As they made their way home, Rika was still bothered by Takato's feeling. She thinks that she feels the same way Takato did.

Finally, she whispered to him, "Takato, are you having that weird presence just now?"

"Yeah…that's why I'm worried about Guilmon." He replied fretfully.

"The same thing goes with me."

Takato was startled. He didn't expect Rika would feel the same as well.

She continued, "I also fear that something bad might happen to Renamon."

Takato did not answer, but he thought about it.

Meanwhile, in the Digiworld, Guilmon is trying hard to find a nice place where they can rest. He didn't tell Renamon or Terriermon to come with him, otherwise if danger comes, it will be another disgrace if he just lay around cowardly while two of his friends are fighting. He should do this alone, and will not let any love affair ruin his capabilities.

After a while, he sensed something near to him. He needs to be cautious this time, or else the same thing will happen before.

There is no other sound but the wind whispering through his ears. The presence is getting stronger, the danger gets deeper, and the pain was about to be revealed.

He turned on his back, and saw a large silhouette coming nearby. He took hold in his position, and started yelling, "Who are you and what do you want?"

The dark figure did not reply, but the image is fading in, as it gets closer.

As the creature reveals his own image, it was covered by thick, yet ripped blankets, all over his body, even his head. Guilmon could not identify its appearance since the blanket conceals everything. He's guessing one of the virus type digimons that are avoiding their identities.

"You're here to kill me, right?" Guilmon asked ironically, "Then let's finish this one on one!"

The unknown creature charged at him without warning and gave him a strong uppercut that Guilmon started shivering while he's on the air. Then the figure kicked him on air so hard that Guilmon was crushed painfully on the ground. The surface started to crack, which means it was a deadly attack.

The poor reptile slowly got up shaking and struggling avoiding the pain inflicted and started mumbling, "I…I won't let you beat me…"

He started remembering Renamon's words—"You don't want a burden like me getting hurt, do you?"

"No, I won't…" Guilmon whispered to himself, "I won't leave Renamon harmed!"

The injured dinosaur released a strong fireball this time, and it was heading straight towards the foe.

However, with extreme unfortunate moment, the enemy just moved to his side avoiding the fireball that Guilmon launched.

"No…no way!" He yelled, "I gave everything…"

"You're useless." Voiced the unmerciful figure.

Guilmon just heard something familiar from his voice, but he could not point it out. As his consciousness started to die away, the creature walked slowly in front of him and laid his palm on Guilmon's face. With an evil grin deep down inside the cloth covering his face, he crushed Guilmon's head as if it's just a shell of an egg. Guilmon started yelling in pain, but the worthless enemy did not stop there. He continued to crush it even deeper, that Guilmon's head started to bleed, still remembering about Renamon.

Another weird feeling struck Takato. This time, even stronger. Takato started yelling, "Guilmon! No!"

Rika and the others startled, wondering why he yelled something like that.

Renamon has that feeling as well. She could not stand it, but she felt that Guilmon is in great danger.

"Guilmon!" She yelled, "I have to look for him!"

The vixen started to run shivering from anxiety leaving Terriermon behind yelling, "Hey! Where are you going?"

The poor reptile could not move any longer, but just suffering from the enormous pain given to him by the mysterious opponent.

After a while, the creature let go of Guilmon on the ground, leaving him unconscious. Guilmon is still not moving, his head still bleeding, numerous scratches on his shoulders and chest. His bones are broken, especially his spine. He could not breath.

"I think I'm going to die" Thought the injured reptile, "I am so disappointed with myself. I could not afford to protect Renamon. I am so weak that I just lost. I am sorry, Renamon, that I cannot protect you further.

Can Renamon make it in time to find Guilmon lying helplessly on the ground? Can Guilmon keep himself alive before Renamon finds him? Can I find time to make the next chapter soon? Find out!

To be Continued…
