Digi-Texans
"So, we had Jokermon on our asses," Molly was telling the Japanese digidestined about one of the adventures she had had with a few of her digidestined friends back in America. "To our left we had the ocean, but no way to safely travel over it and to our right was this huge fucking volcano ready to blow. Straight ahead was the trap Jokermon had in store for us. So we had nowhere safe to go. So it was risk our asses no matter, so we figured it was better to do so taking a stand against Jokermon.
"So, Babs, who was the only one of us who had managed to get her digimon to digivole past champion instructed Parrotmon to digivolve to Macawmon while the rest of us stood back, but Jokermon wasn't fazed at all by Macawmon's Feather Slice, and moments later, Babs was scooping an injured Parakeetmon into her arms. She looked up," at this point, Molly was imitating the actions of the day, kneeling and staring up at the blue sky as if an evil Bozo like digimon stood before her, "to see that Jokermon was not more than two feet from her, pulling out his stack of blank cards. This was when we learned his true power. He removed two cards from the deck, and with a sweep of his arm, he hit each with one of the blank cards and each was pulled into it becoming joker cards themselves. We could see their panicked faces under their clownish outfits."
"Sounds like a power of another clown digimon we've faced," Tai said, leaning against a rock, enjoying Molly's story, not to mention how she took little notice that she was in a mini skirt as she gave her little show.
"Piedmon," Molly said. "I've done my research. Anyway, Jokermon then turned to the rest of us, now that we had lost Babs and Macawmon, not to mention Richard and Greemon were still MIA. I was shocked and horrified. My best friend had just turned into a playing card. My eyes were all watery and I basically closed my eyes and screamed her name. Then, I felt this power kind of flow through me, and my crest began to glow. Faemon, well, she was Tinkmon at the time, finally digivolved to Ultimate and became Hadamon. For a moment, I thought she had plum disappeared, and so did Jokermon as he came at us, evil in his eyes. Suddenly, he was floating in the air against his will and flying out toward the ocean and dropped quite a ways out. Then, Hadamon grew to her natural size, which is about the size of my head, not the size of a gnat, and returned to us with Babs' and Parakeetmon's cards, not that we knew how to cure them at the time. But, as long as Jokermon was out at sea, we backtracked the way we had come and returned to the real world to contemplate how to fix the two cards and find Richard."
"Oh, please, go on," Davis urged as she sat back down next to TK, seemingly finished. Kari sat on the opposite end of the blanket with her arms crossed, though she insisted to everyone who asked that she was fine.
"Ehhh… okay," Molly was soaking up the attention. She couldn't help but practically burst at the idea that Tai, Matt, and Sora all had their eyes glued to her, not to mention TK. "So I called Richard's house, but his mom hadn't seen him in a whole day, and she was worried about him. Rodrico jumped onto his computer and was doing all in his power to locate Richard's digivice, because we knew that would be where we would find Richard. At the same time, Alex and I were researching how to cure Jokerman's attack, only to find that there were only two ways to cure them. One would have been to find TK and Magnaamgemon and have Magnaangemon fix them. The other was to defeat Jokermon, which we knew we couldn't do without Richard.
"Three days later, and we still had nothing. Tried everything to locate the Crest of Hope, and were completely unsuccessful. So, Saturday night comes around and we're all at our home, trying to get some rest, which we hadn't gotten any of, when I hear my window open. I sit up to see Richard and Greemon attempting to climb into my window. I'm furious at him at the time, and I basically pull him down so that he landed on the floor fairly hard. I yell at him for a few minutes, questioning where he had been, until he held up his crest necklace to show that he had somehow received a second crest. He now had Purity and Righteousness. I questioned him what it meant, but he didn't know, so the four of us decided to test it out in the digiworld. We were there for less than a second when Jokermon attacked. Immediately, Faemon digivolved to Hadamon. But, when Greemon stepped up to digivolve, he didn't seem to know which crest to feed off of and somehow, it allowed him to warp digivolve into Oramon. Jokermon put up a fairly good battle, but Oramon's black snow attack was too much for him to handle. Moments after Jokermon dissolved, the two cards in my pocket began to get hot and, luckily I pulled them out when I did or they would have destroyed my jeans.
"And that's the story of how Jokermon was defeated."
"Cool," Yolei said. She tried to not become an obsessed admirer of Molly, but it was hard. She was beautiful and had awesome stories from the digiworld. Molly bent forward and grabbed a brownie that Cody's mom had made for them all. "So, when do we get to meet your friends?"
"As soon as I e-mail them to get them here," Molly said. She pulled out her phone and began typing quickly. "You'll luuurve them."
A few minutes later, there was a little ruckus by the television they had come into the digiworld through. The digidestined all turned to see four people clad in what looked like hastily thrown on clothing and four very tired looking digimon.
"Do you know what time it is?" the older boy asked. A ferret-like digimon was resting across his shoulders. He was about a year older than Molly with shaggy red hair, light blue eyes, and freckles dotting his nose. He wore a loose pair of jeans and red tee shirt showing off his slightly muscular chest. It had to be Richard and Greemon.
"Probably about two," Molly said standing and approaching them with open arms. Faemon followed suit.
"Exactly," a girl with long blonde hair, light brown eyes, and rather large breasts said. "So why did you call us here?" Being the only girl, she had to be Babs. She was clad in tight designer jeans and an absurdly tight baby blue tank top. Parakeetmon was perched on her shoulder.
"You know I need mucho sleep, Molly," a slightly younger boy with darker skin, black hair, and dark brown eyes said. He wore camouflage pants and an oversized black shirt. They figured he was Rodrico. There was a lizard digimon at his feet that came up to his knees.
Finally, the youngest, who was still in his green pajamas and looked like a male Babs only with slightly darker hair, just yawned and his digimon, a fat looking bunny with extra long ears stood next to him. It was Terriermon.
"Yeah, I know," Molly said after she finished hugging them all. "But, I'd like you to meet the Japanese digidestined, the ones all the digimon talk about."
"Ay Chihuahua," Babs said, setting eyes on them. "Please tell me you're not joking."
"Nope," Molly said, latching onto TK's arm again. "This here is TK, Crest of Hope."
"Will you marry me?" Babs asked staring wide-eyed at him.
"Molly just finished telling us about Jokermon," Tai said, approaching the new digidestined to meet them.
Babs began blushing. "That's so embarrassing."
"Hey," Matt said. "Most of us were turned into key chains, so don't complain."
"So, introductions?" Richard said turning to Molly. Molly nodded and began introducing everyone, up until she forgot Gomomon's name, at which point Tentomon took over introductions.
"So you eight really defeated the Dark Masters?" Alex asked. He was ten-years-old. Rodrico was twelve. Babs was the same age as TK, Kari, Molly, Davis, Ken, and Yolei. Richard was a year older.
"So, how long have you all been involved with the digiworld?" Mimi asked.
"About a year and a half now," Rodrico said. The lizard at his feet suddenly stood on its hind legs and flicked its tongue, then scrambled up Rodrico's back, standing on his shoulder.
"I smell food," the digimon said in a hiss.
"Oh, please, eat," Yolei said, gesturing to the food. The four recently arrived digimon rushed to the picnic blanket and began eating.
"Sorry about him," Rodrico said. "Glickymon has an appetite that can never be satisfied."
"Hey, my mom won't let Agumon stay with us for just that reason," Tai said. Everyone began laughing heartily.
"Oh, Molly, we miss you a lot," Alex said pulling her into a second hug of the day.
"Me too, Alex," Molly said kneeling in front of him. "But it's only been five weeks since I left. And, hey, we can meet up in the digiworld if you ever really need to see me."
"Five weeks?" TK asked. "But you've only been in school for three."
"Oh, well, I didn't attend my first two weeks due to personal reasons," Molly said.
"And what were those?" Kari asked.
Molly looked away and the four Texans gave her a look saying that personal meant personal. "She'd rather not say," Faemon said. "Some things just don't need to be broadcasted to the world."
"That's cool," Ken said. "We respect your wishes, in that case."
"Wow, I feel like we've been such poor hosts," Sora said. She gestured to the food and picnic blanket. "Please, sit down and eat. There's plenty of food for all, even after your digimon's devourment of what we had earlier."
"Thanks," Richard said, following the rest of his team to join the Japanese digidestined. However, as he lowered himself to the ground, he winced.
"Are you okay?" Cody asked.
"Yeah," Richard replied. "Just a little sore from a fight."
"You've been fighting?" Molly snapped. "With who?"
"Who do you think, Mols?" Babs asked.
