Chapter Nine: The Date and the Dare: Part II

Takato was trying not to wolf down his share of the pizza, that is, the VERY large pizza. Takato it seemed had a healthy appetite, for this pizza covered most of the table. Rika, after blanching at how much there was, had let him have most of it. Of course, Takato had remembered to keep his table manners at all times, knowing that Rika would probably let him have it if he ate like a pig. Takato kept looking out the windows, wondering if his friends knew how oblivious they were out there.

Rika decided that this time would be as good as any to start the plan and scooted closer to Takato, trying to look like they were going out. Takato knew that this was the signal to start the plan and grinned. This was gonna be fun. Torturing their friends was something both of them agreed on. It was something they enjoyed as well.

"Oh no, not you again," muttered a voice. Takato looked up and saw the manager of the pizza place, the same guy that had thrown him and the others out the previous day.

"Oh. Don't worry." Takato beamed up at the guy, "I won't cause any trouble!" The manager looked kinda doubtful but let it slide. Rika rose a eyebrow at Takato as the pizza dude walked away.

"You don't want to know, believe me." Takato muttered to her, taking a sip of his drink. Then ever so carefully he put his arm around her shoulders, knowing full well that if he messed up, he would be the next mop. Rika turned a bit red at the close contact and skooted a bit closer, still embarrassed at her plan. Of course, she had to ask herself, was this plan to get back at her friends or get herself a boyfriend?

-----------------Outside the pizza place-------------------------

"Did he just put his arm around her!" Kauz squeaked, shocked beyond shocked.

"Did she just scoot closer to him!" Kenta squeaked back, shocked as well. Ryo just sat propped up against a tree, his eyes dark and moody.

"Hey, where's Davis?" Murmured Henry, binoculars pressed up against his eyes, watching two of his best friends.

"Maybe he ditched us?" Ryo muttered, "Man, this really gets my goat." He muttered, trying to be quite and not succeeding as the other three, Jeri had refused to help them, turned and looked at him.

"Does someone have a crushie wussie how the I.Q.?" Kazu teased, ready to duck a flying fist or kick at anytime. When you hang out with Rika, you have to learn how to duck.

"What in the worlds does I.Q. mean?" Ryo grumbled at him, avoiding the question.

"It means Ice Queen, and stop avoiding the question!" Kazu muttered as he watched Takato help Rika up and they left the pizza place, "Let's follow them!"

"Well, where are they headed?" Kenta muttered, trying to steal Henry's binoculars, quite unsuccessfully by the way.

"Looks like the park." Henry Murmured, shaking Kenta off. The four boys started to follow their two friends, knowing that if they were caught by either one of them, they would be Mushu Pork. Literally, the Gogglehead and the Ice Queen working together... Who knew what they could do, and the boys did not want to find out first-handed.

The two daters, or revenge seekers, arrived at the park, sitting down on one of the city benches. Takato glanced over at Rika, she was looking up at the sky. Takato also looked, expecting to find her looking at a constellation. Imagine his surprise would he saw a digital portal in the sky. The two's date and plan was gonna be ruined. The two didn't even have their D-Arks on them.

The digi-portal started to lower to the ground, stabilizing and expanding. Very soon a little black cat sat on the ground in front of them. It was a BlackGatomon, the darker form of Gatomon. Whereas Gatomon was white, BlackGatomon was naturally black. Her tail-ring, instead of being gold, was made of a material that resembled obsidian and was studded with red rubies. Her eyes were a dark red and so were her gloves, her claws seemly painted with a finger-nail polish colored a dark red.

The most shocking thing of all was a D-Ark that appeared in the air next to her. The D-Ark beeped for a second before zooming off into the city, with BlackGatomon following it close behind. Takato glanced over at Rika and both of them sighed, knowing full well that both the date and plan was ruined, naturally by a digital source.

The others in the shadows had all gasped at the new digimon, and soon realized what they had done. They were running a high risk of detection. The four boys all made tracks after the new feline and left the two daters alone in the park. Takato got up, hearing the other four leave, and held out his hand to help Rika up. Rika blushed at how polite he was be and accepted his hand. The two went off, following the others, hand in hand.

-------------------------------Mie's bakery---------------------------------------

Jun was asleep. If she had been awake, she would have heard the window to the room she was in being opened. In came a tiny dark figure. The little thing's eyes shone in the dark, and it crawled over to Jun's bed. Climbing up the side, it looked at the little dark device floating in the air next to Jun. This was it's Tamer. Jun's eyes started to flutter, feeling movement close to her.

Jun groaned, thinking that either her aunt or brother had come to bother her. Oh, how wrong was she. She sat up and rubbed her eyes, trying to get the sleep out of them. When she did bother to look up, the whole neighborhood heard it.

"What the fricking hell!" Was heard from the bakery to the school to the bay and back again. The little feline sat there, little stars floating around it's sound-blasted head as Jun peered at the little device that had basically attacked her. She easily recognized it. It was similar to the device that Takato was always carrying around. She was now a Tamer.

A cry of no was heard all around the block. The Tamers that had been following BlackGatomon recognized the voice as Jun's and became very afraid. Jun in the southern quadrant was one thing, Jun as a Tamer was entirely different. When they bursted into the room, they saw Jun staring down at the little black ball of fur that was clinging to her pajama top.

"Why me?" Jun asked them, her eyes showing her worry.

Sora: Bwahaha! Bet you weren't expecting that, were you! Also people, I'm planing on revising the earlier chapters of this.

CR: Oh no, more work. Never ever have a bored Sora.

Sora: I got stung by some stupid bug today people! It's still hurting. sob
