"What do I do to get them out of there?" Knightmon asked himself. "I need to get most of the gatomon and humans away. I know I'll have some digimon do work on the bridge. They'll slip something to Ice and I'll contact her that way."
Meanwhile back at the area where Tai is, "Hey what's going on," he asked.
"We're going to do some repairs on the bridge in a few minutes," one of the digimon said.
"I thought it was repaired awhile ago and fine," Takato said.
"Actually the last crew that did repair work on the bridge didn't do it properly," a Meramon said, "You're lucky the thing hasn't collapsed on you with how bad a repair job they did."
"Huh what do you mean," Kari asked, "It looks fine to me."
"We're also going to expand the bridge so it will be wider," a digimon said.
"That would be helpful," Kari said.
"Please take all the healthy digimon with you," the digimon said.
"Fine," Rika said.
"I'll make sure the hurt gatomons are inside," Kari said.
"I'll gather the other gatomons," Tai said.
Behind their backs one of the workers drops a small black bag on her. Ice hides it just before Kari picks her up. She frowns knowing she could endanger the two being nice to her.
"Ice I want you to make sure none of the gatomons that are staying here go outside while they are still working on the bridge ok," Kari said.
"Alright I can do that," Ice said.
"Come on lets go Renamon," Guilmon said.
"I'm not leaving unless I know my eggs are safe," Renamon said.
Ice seeing this as one of the ways to easily contact Knightmon, "I'll stay in Takato's room and keep an eye on them for you Renamon," she said.
"Also don't forget Kara is in the room and will be staying here since she's also hurt," Guilmon said.
"Are you sure you want to help watch Renamon's eggs," Kari asked, "I was hoping you would help keep the other gatomons in mine and Tai's room from going outside."
"We can always just lock the door Kari to make sure they can't get out," Tai said, "It would probably be easier that way anyways."
A little later Ice watches from the window in Takato's room as Tai and the others leave with the gatomons that aren't hurt, 'I hate doing this,' she thinks as her eyes start to fill with tears, 'I never wanted to do anything like this in the first place, I was forced into doing it.'
"Hey Ice are you feeling ok," Kara asked, "It looks like your about to cry."
"I'm fine," Ice said, "It's just some of my own fur got in my eyes is all."
"Ok," Kara said, "Want to talk about anything or do something fun?"
"Not at the moment," Ice said, "I just want to relax right now."
"Alright I'll be in the room with Renamon's eggs if you decide other wise," Kara said as she goes into Rika and Renamon's bedroom.
Ice turns around and watches Kara go into Rika's room and hears a few sounds from the door as it closes making her realize when it shut it locked and made it so no sound can get in or out of the room, "Huh what's going on," Ice asked.
"That was a smart thing you did making it so you would be in the room with almost no one else in it," Knightmon said as his figure appears on the screen behind Ice, "You have any new information for me?"
"Yes I have some things I should tell you," Ice said, "But give me one good reason as to why?"
"Because if you don't tell me then Lord Holy Angemon and I will make it to where you'll never be able to walk again Ice, understand," Knightmon said.
"I understand," Ice said and starts telling Knightmon what Tai and the others are planning on doing in complete detail of what she heard and also what Crystal Agumon said about he thinks some of the digi-mon he put on a list is part of the rebels, "That's all I heard from the meeting they had," she said after taking about half an hour or so to tell him all the stuff.
"Were you able to see the list at all," Knightmon asked, "We need to know who's on it to stop Tai and the others from talking to them."
"No I didn't see the list," Ice said, "Because their friend Matt didn't feel comfortable with all the gatomons being outside Tai had most of us either go back into the room or taken back to the room by the others."
"Hmm that's not going to help us if we don't know who they are going to try to talk to out of the digimon who work for Lord Holy Angemon," Knightmon said, "Keep up the good work on your spying."
"Why, why do I have to be the spy," Ice said as she can't take it any more and starts to break down and cry, "Why is it I have to be the one to tell you what they are doing, can't it be someone else instead I hate doing stuff like this."
"You're the one we chose to be the spy," Knightmon said, "So that is how it's going to be and life isn't always what you want it to be."
"Shut up," Ice muttered under her breath, "Just shut the hell up!"
"It's a good thing we still need you or you would suffer for the way you are currently acting," Knightmon said, "Is there anything else from the past few days you neglected to mention?"
"Only thing I can think of is that Gatomon and Patamon are mostly back to normal and Kari is starting to return to normal I think while I haven't noticed anything about TK as of yet," Ice spat.
"I see anything else?" Knightmon said.
"Well," Ice said, "Kari has some gatomons searching around Lord Holy Angemon's center base. They are trying to find a way in."
Kightmon turns from Ice and started to talk, "I see lets hope they don't find the small vent that leads from the large group of bushes. There is no sensors there. If they found that place then they could easily hide. Even the humans could hide. Luckily they can not fit in the vent." He looks at Ice. "You better not tell anyone. Keep that in mind."
"I will," Ice said.
"You better," Knightmon said. 'That should keep you thinking about it. That mind reader could pick it up,' he thinks.
Meanwhile with Takato, Tai and the others, "Tai where do we go?" Kari asked.
"I'm not exactly sure," Tai said, "Maybe we could go to Izzy's place for a little bit if he doesn't mind."
"Why can't we go to the theme park and have some fun," Bubbles asked, "The only time any of us have gone there was to work or repair some of the stuff."
"You think that is a good idea," Tai asked.
"Actually Tai when TK and I ran into Gatomon and Patamon there," Kari said, "There were only agumons working at the theme park at the time."
"And a few of them did seem a little worried about the gatomons," Gatomon said.
"Lets go see the agumons," some gatomons cheered.
They come to the theme park to find it almost empty. "I guess we're in luck," Tai said.
"Alright lets have some fun and talk to some of the agumons here as well," Jewel yelled.
"Hey wait a minute," Tai said.
Kari looks at Tai confused as one of the gatomons asked, "What is it lord Tai?"
"I just wanted to tell all of you to have as much fun as you can," Tai said and then whispered, "Because with the stuff we are going to be doing you probably won't for awhile after this."
"Alright thanks lord Tai," most of the gatomons said while some nodded their heads.
Rika rolls her eyes because to her it seems like a pointless thing to say, "You know Tai at times you say things that seem totally pointless and redundant," she said.
"Some things need to be said just so they keep it in their mind," Tai said.
The agumon stood waiting for the ride to come again. He watch as a group of gatomons run into line. "There you are," he said, "We were worried about you."
"Lord Knightmon made us stay with two humans," the first gatomon said, "We been having a good time. We get to eat well. Lord Tai and Lady Kari lets us spend more time playing than working. We must sleep inside and we get to choose where."
"That's great," the agumon said, "I wish we could have it that good. We're still trying to sleep where we can hide. Where are the others?"
"Some are on other rides," the gatomon said, "Most had to stay at Lord Tai and Lady Kari's place. They are hurt and can not leave their place."
"Hmm that doesn't sound good," the agumon said, "So how badly are the others hurt?"
"Well Ice and Clawz both have a broken leg," another gatomon said, "And as usual Clawz is being stubborn and most of the time is refusing to rest so she can get better."
"Also one of the others right as the nurse started looking at her burst into data and one of the machines sucked her data in," the first gatomon said, "Though unlike other times it spit her digi-egg out of a slot almost right after it sucked her data in, also I think I heard that Lord Knightmon gave some of his digimon to the host to trade for us."
"Well that sounds nice," the agumon said, "At least all of you are mostly ok from what I see and hear from you."
"Yeah we are," a third gatomon said, "Though I had to tell them how Kara got injured because she didn't know exactly because I witnessed it, while she was asleep another one of the workers who I think was in a bad mood at the time kicked her around."
"She is ok right," the agumon asked.
"Yeah she's doing fine," the same gatomon said.
"That's good," the agumon said, 'Hmm my Wizardmon contact is probably going to want to know about some of this and maybe it can help the rebels in a way,' he thinks.
He watch the gatomon climb onto the ride. "Have a fun time," the agumon said, "I wish I could join you."
"We hope you stay safe," a gatomon said as she also climbs onto the ride.
Meanwhile, Clawz smiles as there is a big pile of random items pressing on the door. The others were hurt but they are still able to move enough to protect themselves. She sits on the windowsill and watches as a digimon place more supplies in the court yard. She look over to see the bridge is stripped to only a platform.
"So how long do you think it's going to be Clawz," another gatomon asked.
"How should I really know," Clawz said, "It's not like I'm one of the ones working on the bridge myself and it looks like they really haven't started just yet anyways."
"I thought you might know because you have been staring out the window since Lord Tai and the others left," the same gatomon said.
"Well I don't ok," Clawz said.
"Then why are you up there?" a gatomon asked.
"So I can watch them," Clawz said, "I don't trust them."
"At least tell us what they are doing?" another asked.
"They just ripped off a railing from the courtyard and now they are working next to the bridge," Clawz said, "I think that they are starting to widen the bridge."
"Are they doing anything else besides that," a gatomon named Lora asked.
"No not really except one is staring right at me it seems," Clawz said, "Now leave me alone I'm going to try to take a nap here."
Meanwhile back at the theme park, "Hey Tai what are you and all of these gatomons doing here," Henry asked seeing him and already had a lot of gatomons run by him.
"Some of the workers showed up and said we had to leave the area for the time being because they are doing some things in the area," Tai said, "So what are you doing here?"
"Jeri and I decided to come here to have a little fun," Henry said, "Also even though Lopmon doesn't want to admit it her and Terriermon are a couple it seems."
"Yeah I figured they were from that trip to the one island they went on with Kari, Sora, the other digimon and I," Tai said.
"Come on Henry lets go see what else we'll be able to do here," Jeri said.
"Alright give me a moment Jeri," Henry said and turns back to Tai.
"Hey don't let me bother you," Tai said, "Go with her if you want."
Meanwhile one of the gatomons is looking around Lord Holy Angemon's area, "What do you think you're doing wondering around here," a Grizzmon asked, "You know you aren't supposed to be in this area."
"I'm just here because I decided to wonder around the entire place for awhile because I was feeling cooped up in that one area," she said as the Grizzmon is staring at her, "I'll be going now I guess."
Grizzmon watches the gatomon as she runs off to somewhere else, "Some of those gatomons act weird," he said shaking his head.
"They are," a Wizardmon said appearing. "What do you have to report?"
"Not much," Grizzmon said, "Lord Holy Angemon has been focusing on the fights."
"I see," Wizardmon said, "Keep your eye out but don't stand out."
"Alright I understand," Grizzmon said and turns to where Wizardmon is standing only to see he's already gone, "That is annoying when he pops in like that and leaves with out saying anything to let me know that he won't be there when I look." Grizzmon is about to walk away when he notices something on the floor around the spot he knows Wizardmon was standing in, 'I wonder what this is,' he thinks as he picks it up.
Meanwhile with Matt, "Alright that's enough training for the moment," he said, "Let's head back to Tai's place and then my room after we drop the digimon off that are Takato's at the moment."
"What do you mean that's enough," Andrew said, "We barely started training and Gabumon, Crystal Agumon, Palmon and Dorumon have been the only ones doing it so far and Gomamon is still helping Joe I think."
"Fine whatever," Matt said, "We'll stay for awhile longer, Gabumon take a break so Adam here can train with Dorumon."
"How many times do I have to tell you my name is Andrew and not Adam," Andrew said, "It gets annoying when you call me by the wrong name."
"Just start training," Matt said, "Also Palmon I want you to train with Mimi for awhile."
"Alright got it," Palmon said, "Come on Mimi lets get to it."
Meanwhile a gatomon walks up to the bridge. "I'm sorry," a digimon said, "Due to the increase number of beings living on the other side of the bridge This bridge is closed for now you can find them in the theme park I think."
"Alright," the gatomon said.
Elsewhere, Suzy climbs from the bath. She looks into the mirror. All her details are lost in long fur. She raises her arm. She watches as a tangle of long tan fur raises up.
"What the," Suzy yelled, "What happened to me?" She looks around the room trying to find something to use to cut her fur but really can't grab anything do to her fur being so long and covering her gloves.
A few hours after she had given up on finding anything and deciding to take a nap Henry, Lopmon and Terriermon walk into the room, "Hey Suzy we're back," Henry said not getting a response.
"What the heck is that thing," Lopmon yelled staring at the mass of fur that is Suzy and waking her up.
Terriermon and Henry turn to look at what Lopmon is looking at, "Whatever it is I have no clue," Terriermon said.
"Oh hey Lopmon," Suzy yawned.
'I think Suzy used the fur growth shampoo,' Terriermon thinks.
"What happened to you Suzy," Henry asked realizing that is her.
"I don't know," Suzy said, "I decided to take a bubble bath and when I got out of the tub I was like this."
'Yeah she had to,' Terriermon thinks as he starts to hum the theme song for the Addams Family.
"TERRIERMON," Henry yelled getting really annoyed with him.
"Momentai, I didn't say anything," Terriermon said acting all innocent.
"All I heard was Terriermon humming something," Lopmon said.
"That's why I yelled at him," Henry said, "Suzy when you were taking a bath what exactly did you do?"
"I grabbed one of the bottles of shampoo and poured some of it into the bath tub as I was filling it with water," Suzy said.
"Yeah she did use some of the fur growth shampoo that I got at the store," Terriermon thought out loud with out realizing it.
"This is your fault Terriermon," Lopmon yelled.
"How is it my fault," Terriermon asked and realizes what he just said out loud a moment ago, "I didn't mean for this to happen, it was supposed to be a small joke on Henry because I switched his shampoo with it and no one got hurt anyways."
"So you switched my shampoo with that stuff," Henry said.
"I just made things worse didn't I," Terriermon said to no one in particular and as more of a statement then anything.
Henry looks into the bath seeing it still filled. "Lopmon help Suzy," he said, "I'll take care of Terriermon." He bit onto his partner's ear and carry him to the bath. He tosses Terriermon into the bath and pulls the curtain closed.
He watches as Lopmon slowly clip a little fur from Suzy. "This may talk awhile," Lopmon said, "I don't want to hurt Suzy."
"Take your time," Henry said, "Terriermon can come out of the bubble bath when your done."
After some time, Suzy looks at herself and finds that she has three inch longer fur then before. "I wonder what the other gatomons would think," Suzy said.
"Does that really matter what they think," Lopmon asked.
"No not really," Suzy said, "But I'm just wondering is all."
"Well since your done with Suzy I'll let Terriermon out now," Henry said as he opens the curtain to the bathtub.
"Good I need to give him a peace of my mind," Lopmon said getting ready to attack him and then can't help burst out laughing at the way he looks.
"Shut up," Terriermon said, "This isn't funny."
"Yes it is," Suzy said as she's also laughing.
Lopmon walks over to Terriermon, "Henry may think this is good enough of a punishment for what you did to Suzy but I don't," Lopmon said as she starts beating up Terriermon.
"Ahhh help me Henry," Terriermon yelled trying to get away from Lopmon's pounding.
"You got yourself into this mess so you can get yourself out of it," Henry said turning away from them and to Suzy, "I bet you're feeling better now that most of that fur is gone."
"Yeah I felt like I was starting to get really dehydrated from all of it," Suzy said, "Though I'm fine now other then being really thirsty."
"Lets get some water," Henry said, "At least it will be easy to tell you apart from the other gatomons."
Suzy nods her head and hops onto Henry's back and onto the counter. She pulled out two bowls and filled them with water. Henry bit on bowl and place it on the ground and did the same with the other bowl. Suzy land on the ground. They starts to lick from the bowls of water.
"Sorry, we need t drink like this but I don't have hands to hold things very well," Henry said.
"I thought you were able to hold your d-arc with your front bird-like claws," Suzy asked.
"I can with that but most other things I have trouble holding since I can't really get a good grip on them and with them being more scalelike it makes it even harder," Henry said, "And plus you saw what happened last time I grabbed a cup since I was turned into a gryphon."
"Yeah I remember," Suzy said, "About a minute or so after you picked it up, you accidentally shattered it in your claw."
"Also I wasn't really sure how I would be able to drink out of it with a beak instead of a mouth," Henry said, "So it also felt kind of awkward having it."
"I'm glad I have thumbs," Suzy said as she starts to lick her arm.
"You're taking this cat thing too far," Henry said.
"It can be hard but also fun," Suzy said, "You like to fly."
"I guess its good and bad," Henry said.
"Also I started doing it with out really thinking about it," Suzy said.
"You shouldn't be one to talk because I see you preening the feathers on your wings when you wake up every morning for the last week," Lopmon said.
"I haven't been doing stuff like that," Henry said.
"Actually I have seen you doing it as well Henry," Suzy said, "Though you usually seem to be half asleep when doing it."
"So I guess I have been doing it with out even realizing it," Henry said, "Because I really don't remember doing that at all."
"Looks like both of us have to try to keep an eye on some of the things we do," Suzy said.
"Wouldn't it be easier if you two try to watch for something the other usually never did before being changed to how you currently are," Lopmon asked as she's searching around for something, "I think it would be the smart thing to do."
"Uh what are you looking for Lopmon," Suzy asked.
"I'm looking for the electric razor I saw in here the other day," Lopmon said, "I'm not done with my punishment for Terriermon just yet and plus other people and digimon will be staring and laughing at him because he looks the way he does at the moment."
"What are you planning to do to him," Suzy asked.
"Yes do tell us what you plan to do to Terriermon," Henry said.
"You'll have to wait till morning to find out because I'm not saying what I'm going to do," Lopmon said with a smirk.
"Yeah I am still tired," Suzy yawned, "And it is getting late."
"It's only about ten in the evening," Henry said.
"Well if we were at home I would have been asleep awhile ago," Suzy said, "Actually I was but you and the others woke me up when you came in."
"Oh right," Henry said, "Yeah we should get to sleep even though I'm used to staying up later then this, I have had a long day."
Meanwhile at the courtyard where Takato, Tai, Kari, Rika and their digimon stay, "Looks like they finished I think," Takato said as they are walking back to their rooms with the gatomons behind them.
"Actually we still have a little work to do," one of the digimon working on the bridge said, "Though it should be safe to walk across it now."
They walk over the bridge. They look at the wider bridge. There they see some places are missing railing. "It's still nice to not walk in a single file line," Kari said.
Tai walks up to his door and pushes on is. He stands there trying to figure out why it would not open. "Hold on," Clawz said from the window.
Nearby Takato walks into his room and drops onto the couch. Just then warm fur landed on him. "Rika you're on my lap," Takato said.
"I'm too tired," Rika said, "Those gatomons can drain you."
"I know," Takato said, "One group under control another runs off," Takato stops when he notices Rika's asleep.
"Isn't that cute," Renamon said.
"Yeah it is," Guilmon said.
"That's nice and all that you think that about the two of us like this," Takato said as he's yawning, "But Renamon can you get Rika off me so," he started to say and stops in mid sentence.
"Uh Takato are you feeling ok," Guilmon asked only for Takato to start snoring as his response.
"Looks like they both fell asleep," Renamon said, "I think we should get to sleep ourselves Guilmon."
"Ok," Guilmon said, "But shouldn't we put Takato and Rika in their own beds?"
"Nah just leave them like that for tonight," Renamon said, "Besides they look really comfortable being together like that." Renamon starts walking towards her room and stops as she notices that the broken heart on Rika's glove she noticed earlier is now a complete one, 'That's strange the heart on Rika's glove was broken in two down the middle earlier,' she thinks.
"Renamon is something wrong," Guilmon asked.
"I was just thinking about something is all," Renamon said.
"Well ok I'm going to go to sleep now myself anyways," Guilmon said as he walks over to the door to his and Takato's bedroom and Renamon walks over to hers and Rika's, "Talk to you in the morning."
A few minutes later Monodramon walks in holding Ryo's arm over his shoulder as he's bringing her unconscious form into the room, "You know some one could," he said and trails off as he notices Takato and Rika are already asleep and no one else is currently in the room and sighs, "Great I had to practically carry Ryo all the way back here because she fell asleep a little after the training and when we met back up with Takato, oh well I guess I just have to get her into our bedroom by myself."
Monodramon continues carrying Ryo and a couple minutes later lays her down in one of the two beds in their room, "There that should do it," he said as he pulls the covers over Ryo to make sure she stays warm.
Meanwhile at Matt's place, "Can't you just go back to Takato's room," he said getting annoyed with Andrew.
"I want to stay here with you for the night," Andrew said, "And I haven't done or said anything for you to get really annoyed with me."
"Not done anything to annoy me," Matt literally yelled, "You have been asking stupid questions since we got here."
Early the next morning, "I can't believe it," Ryo yelled as she starts wrecking the room, "Those stupid fools ruined all of my plans that I had been working on for the last few months." Ryo continues wrecking the room and grabs the bed that Monodramon is on and flips it and sends him hurtling across the room and causing him to hit his head hard enough to wake him up.
"Huh what's going on," Monodramon asked as he's rubbing his aching head.
Ryo turns towards Monodramon as she hears his voice, "You, this is partially your fault," Ryo yelled with anger and hate in her voice, "You are nothing more then a poor excuse for a digimon, I should kill you with the rest of them because you are pathetic and weak."
"Ryo what's wrong with you," Monodramon asked in concern for her, "You seemed to be back to your normal self yesterday and you told all of our friends that you wouldn't hurt any of them."
"I never said such a thing," Ryo said as she's glaring at Monodramon with a malicious smile, "And none of them are my friends because I don't need any friends."
"Ryo snap out of it and calm down," Monodramon said and sees the look in her eyes, 'No it can't be,' he thinks.
"What is something wrong Monodramon," Ryo asked as Monodramon is backing away from her and she picks up something heavy and throws it at him.
"W-who are you," Monodramon asked as he dodges out of the way.
"Who do you think I am you stupid arrogant fool," Ryo said.
"You're Millenniumon but how," Monodramon said.
"Took you long enough to figure it out," Millenniumon said as Ryo's voice is replaced with that of Millenniumon's.
Meanwhile in the living room Rika and Takato are startled awake as they hear a loud crashing sound and Rika teleports to a standing position about ten feet from Takato with out thinking, "What was that," she asked.
"I have no clue," Takato said as he's blushing as he realizes he's only wearing his boxers, "Um Rika you think I can have my uh clothes back?"
"What are you talking about goggle head," Rika said as she turns to him and sees him in only his boxers and realizes that the rest of his clothes are hanging over her right arm, "Oh sorry about that," she said tossing them back to him.
"Though I think it came from Ryo and Monodramon's room," Takato said as he's putting his clothes back on, "I think we should go see what is going on."
"What gave you that idea," Rika said sarcastically.
Takato walks over to Ryo and Monodramon's door and opens it with Ryo's back to him as Monodramon is looking serious at Ryo, "What is going on in here you two," Takato asked.
Millenniumon's grin becomes more malicious as he's staring at Monodramon, "Monodramon attacked me and was trying to rape me just now," Millenniumon cried in Ryo's voice and runs over to Takato.
"With the way you have been acting Ryo," Rika said, "In my opinion that would serve you right if he did that."
"WHAT!?" Monodramon yelled in shock at what he just heard as Millenniumon is grinning evilly, "That isn't true."
"Calm down both of you," Takato said as he bends down to talk to Ryo but stops as he sees the look in her eyes, "One I know Monodramon would never try to do anything like that and two who the hell are you and what has happened to Ryo?" he asked looking straight into her eyes.
"What are you talking about Takato, I am Ryo," Millenniumon said still using Ryo's voice and after a few minutes of awkward silence he realizes he's not fooling Takato at all, "You should recognize who I am just from my real voice."
"I never heard that voice before," Takato said, "So how would I know who you are?"
"Hmm are you sure," Millenniumon said, "Maybe if I remind you about the way I truly look then you'll remember." After a moment he grabs a dresser that Ryo normally wouldn't be able to lift under other circumstances and throws it at Takato.
Takato barely jumps out of the way of the dresser in time," Why the hell did you do that," he yelled.
Meanwhile Tai is just walking into the courtyard from his room when he hears a loud crash coming from Takato's room, "What the hell was that," he asked himself as he goes over to Takato's room and knocks on the door.
"Because I can," Millenniumon said, "Also the way I look in my true form is that I have two heads and have strips of data floating around me all the time, four to be exact."
"I guess I'll get that," Rika said hearing Tai knocking at the door.
"I never met any digimon like that," Takato said, "If I had I would remember it."
"Actually I'm already over hear," Renamon said standing by the door, "All the noise being made woke me up."
"So if you never met me that means," Millenniumon said, "No wonder you knew more about me then I did you when I first met you because you had already met me by then, this is just rich with irony," he said and starts laughing evilly.
Renamon opens the door and finds Tai standing on the other side, "I thought I heard something break in here," Tai said as he's standing in the door way.
"It's nothing except Ryo seems to be having some problems at the moment," Renamon said.
"Ah why if it isn't Taichi Kamiya or are you still going by that other name of Taichi Yagami," Millenniumon said after he stops laughing.
"It can't be Millenniumon," Tai said after hearing the voice as a chill goes down his spine.
"What was that Tai," Takato asked.
"I recognize that voice," Tai said, "It sounds like Millenniumon."
"That's right," Millenniumon said, "I am Millenniumon, well Xeed Millenniumon to be exact."
"That could explain why Ryo has been acting the way he has been," Tai said, "But I don't know if he's been controlling him the entire time that he's been acting strange."
"Actually when I got woken up by Ryo or Millenniumon, I think was yelling about all his plans being ruined," Monodramon said, "Though I'm sure it was Millenniumon because I know Ryo would never say some of the things that were said to me."
"What was said to you Monodramon," Takato asked.
"Oh I just called him a poor excuse for a digimon. pathetic and weak like he is," Millenniumon said.
"I can't take listening to that voice any longer," Monodramon said and picks up a piece of wood with a very sharp end on it, "This should do."
"This should be interesting to watch," Rika said.
"Wait don't do anything you'll regret Monodramon," Takato yelled trying to stop him but isn't fast enough.
Monodramon uses all of his strength and hits Ryo's current form on the back of the head hard enough to knock her out with the dull end of the piece of wood while holding the pointed end, "I just wanted to shut Millenniumon up for awhile at least," he said as he throws the piece of wood on the ground away from him and Ryo, "I would never do anything like kill Ryo since he's my tamer and the best friend I have."
"What I don't get is why Millenniumon said that he knows me," Takato said, "I have never met him before now, though I did play a few games that had a character named Ryo and he did look a lot like the Ryo we know, but I never would have thought that he could be the same Ryo from the games."
"Which games have you played Takato," Rika asked.
"All except the last one," Takato said, "Why are you asking me these question?"
"Because in the last game Ryo lost most of his memories and finally got a real partner which is Monodramon here and his own digi-vice as well," Rika said, "The last game had to be created after the world found out about us being tamers because they put a character in it that had your name and looked a lot like you Takato and Tai and Davis were in it as well and in the end it turned out that Millenniumon is Ryo's true partner, but because of Monodramon it messing something up and some how Monodramon fused with Millenniumon which is what created Cyberdramon. Though before that when Monodramon caused the fusion between the two of them they became a digi-egg."
"So now we need to find a way to keep Ryo in charge," Tai said, "I'm guessing that since Ryo became a digimon Millenniumon can pull Ryo's strings. Now that we know about him, he can't hide from us."
"You need to practice your teleporting," Takato said looking at Rika.
"I'll tie up Ryo until we know who is in charge," Monodramon said.
"Just don't go to far," Rika said swinging her tail, "We don't need more eggs." In the living room, she turns to see and Renamon and Guilmon sitting around their eggs. "Ryo has an evil, crazy digimon in him...her."
"She's not coming near my eggs," Renamon said.
Kari left their place and runs over to Tai. "What's up?" Kari asked, "I spent some time trying to calm some of the girls down."
"Another problem," Tai said, "A digimon piggy backed in Ryo. Too bad he's evil."
"That is bad," Kari said.
"You can say that," Takato said.
"I would never do anything like that with Ryo even if he has been turned to a female digimon," Monodramon said, "That just sounds sick Rika."
"That's a good thing I guess," Kari said, "So which digimon is it that's in Ryo?"
"It's none other then Millenniumon," Tai said.
"Oh great now we have to deal with that digimon again let alone with what's already going on," Kari groaned.
"So Ryo and his true partner are now one," Rika said smirking, "Sucks to be him."
"What was that Rika," Tai asked confused.
"Well at the end of the last game with Millenniumon and Ryo in it he revealed that he's Ryo's true partner," Rika said.
"That doesn't make any sense," Tai said.
"Think about it," Rika said, "Ryo is the only one to beat Millenniumon when it seemed no one could and he had Agumon's help though the first time and the other digimon as well."
"So most of Ryo's adventures had been made into games in your real world," Kari asked.
"Yeah they have," Takato said.
Meanwhile Matt walks into the courtyard carrying two unconscious Dorimon under his arms and walks up to Takato's room, "Here take these two back," he said, "They have been getting on my nerves all night and I couldn't stand it any more and I guess neither could the others because they ganged up on Andrew and Dorumon tried to stop them I think and got caught in the middle and the others started attacking them till they reverted and passed out."
"You have that effect," Tai said, "Normally you ban your fan girls but I guess a cartoon fan boy won't hurt."
"Whatever," Matt said.
"Tai look," Kari said, "I'm taller than the other gatomons." She smiles as she stands next to a group of feline digimons. "I'm going to be human again soon."
"You're still changing slowly," Tai said.
A worker digimon comes up to them, "I need to ask you to leave again so we can finish the bridge."
"You worked on it for a long time yesterday though," Kari said, "How much longer is it going to take?"
"With what we still have to do it will take four hours at most," the digimon said, "But we should be done in about two if the others with me don't screw around again."
"Where should we go this time," Takato asked.
"Well it is breakfast time so I say we go to the café and get something to eat first," Tai said.
"I'll go tell the gatomons that aren't hurt that we have to leave again today for a few hours," Kari said and turns around to leave the room and sees TK standing outside, "Oh hey TK," she said, "What's with the wig you're wearing?"
"Um it's not a wig Kari," TK said, "I woke up this morning like this, it looks like my hair was the first sign of me changing back to human I guess."
"Now that just looks really weird," Veemon said coming out of Kari's room and seeing TK with blond hair while other then that she still looks like a Lady Veemon in every other way.
"I'm not bad," TK said.
"No, your just not as cute," Veemon said, "But I'm a Veemon. Davis lets go see the others."
"I'm going to Sora's," Tai said, "I'll take some gatomons with me."
"I'm going to Matt's," Kari said.
"Andrew made him mad," TK said, "You're going to bother him even more. I'll lead you there."
"Come on Rika," Takato said, "You need to practice your teleporting. Get Ryo and Monodramon we're going to practice or something."
"Why do you say that Rika needs to practice her teleporting," Renamon asked.
"Takato's either embarrassed or upset about what happened when we first woke up," Rika said.
"And that would be," Renamon said.
"I was startled to the point where I teleported when we woke up and accidentally took most of Takato's clothes with me," Rika said.
"That doesn't sound like a problem to me," Renamon said as she walks over to Takato, "You were just startled Rika, so I don't think you need to practice at all except to keep yourself from being startled like that."
"Then I guess you would need to train or practice yourself Renamon because you were startled as well by that," Ice said sitting in front of Rika and Renamon's bedroom door.
Meanwhile in Henry's room, "Ahhh what the hell did you do to me," Terriermon yelled loud enough to wake every one there up.
"Huh what's the matter Terriermon," Henry asked.
"Yeah what is your problem," Suzy said as she stretches like an actual cat and yawns, "I was having a good dream till you woke me up."
"Who the hell did this to me," Terriermon yelled as he runs into the bedroom causing sweat drops to form by the sides of every one else heads and to stare for a few moments before cracking up laughing, "This isn't funny!"
"Actually it's hilarious," Henry said.
"I'm guessing this is the repayment for the fur growth shampoo and what happened to me last night," Suzy said between laughter.
"Come on," Terriermon said.
"Lopmon you should have made it look like he had a gut," Suzy said.
"I can't make something that he doesn't have," Lopmon said rubbing Terriermon's belly, "Beside too much fur would block me from rubbing his belly."
"You're not bad either," Lopmon said.
"Cute," Suzy said, "The boyfriend and girlfriend are cuddling."
"We're not a couple," Lopmon said.
"Alright then," Suzy said, "Teirrermon would you like to go on a date."
"No," Lopmon yelled as she grabs Terriermon and wraps him in her ears.
"If you're not a couple then Terriermon can date anyone," Suzy said.
"No," Lopmon said, "Mine."
"Mine what?" Suzy asked.
"You know Lopmon," Henry said, "For some one who says you aren't a couple you seem very over possessive of him."
"Fine whatever you say," Suzy said.
"I'm not letting any one else touching my mate," Lopmon yelled and then covers her mouth after blurting it out.
"So you finally admitted it Lopmon," Terriermon said, "Well to someone else besides me that is since we got here." Lopmon glares at him as she tightens her ear around him even more, "Uh Lopmon I can't breath."
"Hey Lopmon there's nothing wrong if other people know," Suzy said, "Anyways why didn't you want us to know?"
"Because whenever we do tell someone else Terriermon starts bragging about it and it gets really annoying," Lopmon said, "So I decided to start denying it after awhile."
"Lopmon I think you should stop squeezing Terriermon before he dies," Henry said.
Lopmon lets go of Terriermon, "Fine," Terriermon said, "I won't brag...as much." He rubs Lopmon's back.
"I'm going to find the gatomons," Suzy said and turns to Henry, "Didn't you promise Jeri about going to breakfast with her." Henry's eyes widen. Then he runs from the place. Suzy walks to the door. "Keep an eyes on the place," she said as she leaves.
"I'm hungry," Terriermon said, "Care to join me?"
"I would love to," Lopmon said.
"Then shall we go MILADY, "Terriermon asked.
"Hmm you're actually being serious and sweet at that," Lopmon said, "That is very rare for you."
"I can be serious anytime I want," Terriermon said.
"Then prove it," Lopmon said, "I want you to go an entire week with out making a wise crack or being sarcastic in any way."
"What will happen if I were to agree to that," Terriermon asked.
"Let's just say if you can do it I'll let you brag all you want about us being together," Lopmon said, "But if you can't you stop bragging all together and have to do whatever I tell you for a week as well."
"So you're telling me that I get to brag all I want about us being together if I agree to this little bet," Terriermon said, "But if I lose then I have to stop bragging and do whatever you want, that seems a little unfair to me."
"What do you want?" Lopmon asked.
"Food," Terriermon said.
"I knew you would lose," Lopmon said.
Meanwhile Tai walks up and rubs his face. "This is going to be tough," he said looking at the large group of gatomons sunning on a patch of grass.
"Hey Tai," Sora said, "Watching the gatomons again?"
"They need to do some work still," Tai said.
"Well the fights are on hold for a few hours I think," Sora said, "They're cleaning it. One of the fights made the place stink. I'm going to look into it. I want to know if it's a planned delay."
"I can go look around the arena if you want," one of the gatomons said, "I won't take that long and can tell you if they are cleaning it or what they are actually doing."
"Are you sure you want to do that," Tai asked, "You really don't have to."
"I want to because I don't like just lounging around all the time," the gatomon said, "I like to be able to do things that are actually useful that can help others. Also I know a few good hiding places there so they won't see me."
"You could always just tell us where the hiding places you're talking about are," Tai said.
"There is a slight problem with that," the gatomon said, "Even if I told you exactly where they are it wouldn't help you because they're only big enough to fit a gatomon on all fours."
"Hmm that wouldn't help us at all," Tai said.
"Tai how about we just let her go and take a look for us," Sora said as she walks up to Tai and kisses him on the lips and after a few minutes they end the kiss, "We haven't spent all that much time together since we got here except when we were working on making the plans with the others, but that doesn't really count."
"Alright we'll let the gatomon go see what's going on," Tai said and then turns to the gatomon, "But you will be careful and don't do anything that will cause you to get hurt."
"I won't," the gatomon said, "I'll be back in an hour from now at most."
Meanwhile with Henry, "Sorry...I'm...late...Jeri," he said out of breath as he goes up to her, "I...kind...of...overslept...and then...got distracted when I...saw what...Lopmon decided to do...to Terriermon."
"Don't worry it's ok Henry," Jeri said.
"Really," Henry said.
"I forgive you," Jeri said, "The food is at my place. Leomon took all the others to train."
"I don't mind," Henry said as he follow Jeri into the apartment.
Meanwhile Tai watch as a gatomon with long fur skips over to them. "So this is where you are," the gatomon said, "I know I look different. Terriermon try to prank Henry but got me instead. I came to show the felines my new look."
"Not bad," a gatomon said, "It may take some time to care for it."
"I agree," Suzy said, "So what are we going to do now?"
"We aren't sure," another gatomon said, "Do you have any ideas of what we should do?"
Meanwhile with the gatomon that went to check out the arena, "Jeeze it really stinks here," she said as she looks at the arena from her hiding spot, "And it looks like a war between Sukamons broke out."
"Why did Lord Holy Angemon have to have the last fight with two humans that both had Sukamon's for there partners champion forms," a Cyclonemon complained.
"Just get back to work on the unscheduled maintenance Lord Holy Angemon told us to do while the others are cleaning the arena up and stop your complaining," the same Grizzmon from before said, "I know it stinks but complaining about it isn't going to do anything."
"So it wasn't scheduled," the gatomon said, "I'll let Tai know that but I'm going to listen to see if I can find out anything else important."
"Maelstrom," a few Megaseadramon in the arena yelled as they use their attacks to clean it up some what causing the gatomon to turn her head towards them.
"That's one way to get it clean," she said and a few minutes later her eyes go wide as the water drops down and starts heading towards the place she's currently hiding in, 'Uh oh this isn't going to be any fun,' she thinks right before the nasty water pushes her out of her hiding spot and she ends up swallowing some of it, "Ewe this is really nasty and I think I'm going to be sick."
"Who's in there," one the megaseadramon said as he looks around, "Must be a wondering partner digimon. They seem to get almost anywhere."
"Yea there are so many," another megaseadramon said, "If they shut down the security network we could be over run."
"If Lord Holy Angemon was defeated I'm leaving here," a third megaseadramon said, "No since getting hurt over a lost man."
"I need to tell Lord Tai about this," the gatomon whispered.
"Be careful," Datamon said, "It may be water proof with the panel. You could easily soak this." He points at a gap in the panel. "It could cause problems."
"Alright mister pushy," a random megaseadramon said. He turns to the other megaseadramon. "I guess its better than having to clean it twice."
"Just stop arguing and all of you do what you're supposed to do," Grizzmon yelled, "The more you argue the longer it's going to take."
"I don't see you doing anything," the Cyclonemon muttered under his breath.
"That's because I was just told to supervise and make sure everything got done," Grizzmon said turning to look at Cyclonemon, "Now get back to work."
"Fine whatever you say," the Cyclonemon said.
'I can't wait to get out of here at the moment,' Grizzmon thinks, 'Though the megaseadramons are smart about getting out of here when Lord Holy Angemon is defeated. I also still need to look at that one thing I found when I get the chance.'
'Wait isn't that the same Grizzmon I ran into yesterday,' the gatomon thinks, 'I'm going back to where Tai and the others are, I can't stand being here anymore and I think I have enough information for the moment.'
Grizzmon turns towards the area that the gatomon is in and spots her, 'What is that gatomon doing here at the moment,' he thinks and mouths the words get out of here when she turns and sees him looking at her.
'Uh oh Grizzmon sees me,' she thinks, 'Wait is he telling me to get out of here, why isn't he trying to stop me,' she thinks as she moves faster to get out of the part of the arena she's in.
A little later the gatomon runs up to Tai and the others, "What happened to you," Sora asked seeing her soaked.
"I'll tell you in a minute Sora," the gatomon said out of breath, "This wasn't a planned maintenance, they are actually cleaning the arena because I heard that the last fight that happened the two humans both had Sukamon's for partners, but the host decided to have them do an unscheduled one on the arena while there are some Megaseadramons using one of their attacks to clean the arena."
"Are you feeling ok," Kari asked as she walks over to the gatomon, "You don't look so well."
"No I'm not," the gatomon said, "But would you if you swallowed some of the water that was used to get rid of some of the Sukamon's feces?"
"Sora do you mind if I use the shower?" Tai asked.
"Sure go ahead," the red head said, "I'll watch the others."
"Thanks," Tai said picking up the gatomon.
Meanwhile with TK, "What are all of you doing in my place?" Matt yelled at the gatomons in his place.
"I invited them," TK said, "They need a place to stay until they can go back to their place."
"What are you doing?" Matt yelled and runs over to a group of gatomons climbing on the screen.
"Matt just calm down," TK said, "They aren't doing anything wrong."
"Oh Matt sorry about the other day," some of the gatomons said, "We didn't mean to act the way we did, it turns out that the digimon who make the food slipped catnip into all of our food including Kari, Black Gatomon and Gatomon's as well."
"Uh thanks for the apology I think," Matt said, "But I still didn't like that you wouldn't let the others untie me after Gabumon had you tie me up the way you did."
"So can they stay," TK asked.
"Yea they can stay as long as they get down off the screen and don't make a big mess," Matt said, "And as long as they can behave as well."
"Thanks Matt," TK said.
"Your welcome," Matt said and can't help feel uncomfortable looking at TK with hair as a Lady Veemon.
"So what should we do," TK asked.
"How about we play," some of the gatomons yelled as they start tearing the room apart while playing.
"Hey I said not to make a mess," Matt yelled.
"Don't worry we'll clean up the mess we make before we leave," one of the gatomons said.
"What's with all the noise," Patamon asked and yawns as he comes out of his and TK's bedroom, "I didn't get much sleep because Ken was either snoring or every time I started to fall asleep finally I would get kicked and woken up again."
"How many times do I have to tell you that I don't snore," Ken yelled.
"Sure you don't," TK said
"I don't snore," Ken yelled.
"The problem is that you asleep at the same time," Patamon said, "All those that know he Snore raise you hands." They watch as the gatomon raise their paws. "See," Patamon said with a smile, "They agree with us."
"They don't count," Ken yelled.
"I'll get food," Matt said, "TK you're in charge. Everyone do what TK tells you to do or else."
With a wide smile TK turns to the others. "What should I order first."
"Ken let me tell you something," Wormmon said.
"What is it," Ken asked.
"You may not snore as a human Ken," Wormmon said causing Ken to become a little happy, "But as a digimon when you're sleeping you make more noise then a motor boat."
"Great even Wormmon is saying that I snore," Ken muttered to himself.
"Every Gabumon and Black Gabumon I have met and have had to sleep nearby them seems to snore most of the time," a gatomon that is near Ken said loud enough for Ken to hear.
'Why do I suddenly have the feeling that I'm not going to like what is about to happen,' Patamon thinks.
"No more talking about Ken snoring so says the one in charge." TK said as she smiles.
"Fine," Wormmon said, "Who made you in charge?"
"Matt did," TK said.
"Before you say anything else Wormmon, Matt did put TK in charge," Patamon said.
"How about we all play a game," a gatomon said.
"What kind of game did you have in mind," TK asked.
"I don't know," the same gatomon said, "Any kind of game is fine with me."
"Hmm Matt told all of you not to make a big mess so I don't think attack tag is an option," TK said, "Anyone else have an idea for a game?"
"Angewomon says," a gatomon said.
"Angewomon says paw on you head," a gatomon said.
A little later Tai walks back to Sora's place. "Here is the food," Tai said. He lifts the plate from the cart and hands it to Sora. After grabbing his, he turns to the others, "Please grab one."
"So Tai what's the plan?" Sora asked.
"I going to look for insiders," Tai said and watches a gabumon walk by. "I think I found one," he said standing up.
"Do you think that's a good idea Tai," Sora asked, "Just to ask random digimon you see?"
"What else can I do," Tai asked, "Besides that is one of the digimon Crystal Agumon put on the list."
"Well just be careful ok," Sora said.
Tai walks up to the gabumon, "Can I speak to you for a moment," Tai asked.
"What is it you want human," the gabumon asked.
"Well I was wondering what you would think about helping me and my friends try to stop Lord Holy Angemon," Tai asked.
"I'll have to think about it," the gabumon said, "Actually Tai I'm currently one of Jeri's partners, though my real Tamer is Julie and you should find a better way to ask things like that with out giving the majority of the information away."
"That Gabumon does have a good point Tai," Sora said as she's behind Tai, "You're just going to make things bad for all of us if you ask it like that."
"Uh Lord Tai I need to tell you some more stuff," the gatomon that Tai gave a bath to earlier said, "Yesterday and today while I was wondering around I ran into a Grizzmon both times and the first time he was alone but today he was with others and was the only one to see me but didn't do anything, I think he might be able to help maybe."
"Yeah I guess the two of you are right about how I should ask," Tai said.
"Start off slowly," Sora said, "That's about it."
"Don't make it look like you want him to help you," the gabumon said, "I need to get going."
"Alright," Tai said, "I'll try."
Meanwhile Izzy looks up from the screen. "Whoever made this system is smart," he said.
"Thank you," Crystal Agumon said, "But think that does not mean I will not fight my best if we must. Me and Gabumon will make sure Matt does not lose."
"Alright," Gomamon said, "That's the spirit. I want to see Tai and Matt have a rematch."
"I think you're getting a little too much into these fights," Tentomon said.
"You got to want to see Gabumon and Agumon go at it once more," Gomamon said, "The last time they fought it ended in a draw."
"Good point," Tentomon said.
"Either one of them could win because as far as I could tell from the show Gabumon and Agumon are evenly matched in strength and skill," Crystal Agumon said.
"I didn't think you would be one to watch cartoons or TV shows Crystal Agumon," Gomamon said.
"Well truth is I do not watch any kind of TV all that much but I watch that show for a different reason since I can usually estimate a potential enemies power by watching them fight or sparing with them," Crystal Agumon said.
"I thought all digimon could do that to some extent," Izzy said.
"Yes all digimon can to some extent," Crystal Agumon said, "Moat of the time I can actually tell who's going to win a fight before it's even close to being over, like I knew Tentomon here was going to win."
"Why do you say that," Gomamon asked.
"Well in your case it is clear to most people with a brain," Crystal Agumon said.
"What do you mean by that," Gomamon yelled.
"Calm down," Crystal Agumon said, "I am not insulting you or anything if that is what you think, what I mean is that you get overconfident and let your guard down half the time while fighting, especially against your friends."
"Crystal Agumon does make a good point," Izzy said.
"There is always the unknown," Gomamon said.
"There is only the unknown to those that don't think," Crystal Agumon said.
"We'll see," Gomamon said.
"Gomamon, Crystal Agumon is right," Izzy said as he's watching the screen.
"I'm leaving," Gomamon said, "Joe may need me."
Gomamon walks up to see Joe with a nurse rubbing his head. "I want to go out," he said, "They're making fun of me."
"Alright," Joe said. He turns to the nurse digimon and asked, "Do you mind carrying us to some of our friends?"
"Sure," the nurse digimon said.
"Thanks," Joe said, "I owe you a kiss," he said causing the nurse digimon to blush.
"So where do the two of you want to go to," the nurse asked.
"Anywhere but here at the moment," Gomamon said.
Meanwhile with Takato in the training area, "So why is it you said Rika needs to train again," Renamon asked looking at him.
"Rika already told you," Takato said, "But I guess I'll tell you again, when she was woken up by that noise she ended up teleporting about ten feet away from me with all my clothes except my boxers," he said and whispered the last part.
"I see," Renamon said and gets closer to Takato.
"Uh Renamon you're making me feel a little uncomfortable with how close you are," Takato said.
"So you're saying Rika did something like this," Renamon asked with an evil grin as she touches Takato's pants and they vanish.
"Hey what did you do with my shorts,." Takato whispered.
"Don't worry they are close by," Renamon said.
Some of the other people and digimon in the area point at Takato and start laughing at him, "Renamon this isn't funny give me back my shorts now," Takato said.
"Huh where did these come from," Rika asked looking at Takato's pants that she happens to be wearing backwards.
"I just did this as an example to show you that most of my kind of digimon if they have taken enough time to train can teleport anything to anywhere with out much thought," Renamon said, "And last night while you were chatting with the others after that meeting I decided to start showing Rika how to do that."
"Ok I get your point," Takato said, "Now can I just have my shorts back."
"Sure," Renamon said, "Hey Rika those pants you're currently wearing are Takato's and he would like them back now."
"What these are Takato's," Rika said and next thing Takato knows his shorts are over his head and his head is stuck in one of the legs part.
After a few minutes of watching Takato trying to pull them off Renamon decides to help him, "Thanks Renamon," he said.
"Your welcome," Renamon said, "I guess you're right about Rika still needing a little bit of training with that."
"Actually I did that on purpose," Rika said with a smirk, "Though I'm not sure why I decided to do that."
"Renamon does things like that to me," Guilmon said, "I think it something like they like to cuddle."
"You like to lick me on the back of my neck at times," Renamon said, "But Guilmon is right. You're acting as Takato's mate."
Takato face turns red as Rika yelled, "What?!"
"I'm just telling you how you're body is acting like," Renamon said as she steps into a training stance.
"It's not bad," Takato said. Rika turns to Takato.
"Lets practice," Renamon said, "You two need to train together. So I'll play the enemy digimon and Guilmon will play my tamer. Shall we make it interesting, Losers does what the winners tells them to do for the rest of the day."
"That sounds fine with me," Rika said with a smirk, "I hope you like having to do what we tell the two of you to do Renamon."
"Oh Takato one more thing before we start," Renamon said, "Give Guilmon the D-arc that belongs to Rika when she's human and a few of your cards just for show."
"Hmm ok," Takato said as he pulls out Rika's D-arc and grabs a few random cards out of his deck and gives them to Guilmon.
"What's the point of that Renamon," Rika said, "You know it's not going to be any help at all."
"As I said it's just for show," Renamon said, "No harm in just letting Guilmon pretend to modify me with some cards as part of the training now is there?"
"Yeah I guess there is no harm in letting dino boy pretend," Rika said as she gets into a training stance of her own.
"Why did you call Guilmon that," Takato asked.
"Because I can," Rika said, "Now lets just worry about training and stop yapping."
'Hmm these are some pretty good cards,' Guilmon thinks, 'Too bad they won't work for me.'
"So let's get on with this," Rika said.
"Already ahead of you," Renamon said as she tries to punch Rika but misses as she does a back flip and nearly hits Renamon in the chin with her foot.
"You didn't even tell us you were starting," Takato said.
"Do you actually think the enemy is going to let you know," Renamon said.
"Renamon does have a point Takato," Rika said as she tries to use a sweep kick on Renamon, "Since when did the digimon we have fought warn us that they were going to attack us before they did?"
"Guilmon use some of the cards now," Renamon said before she yelled, "Power Paw!"
Rika watch Renamon come toward her. Renamon raise her head up and yelled, "Nova blast," Renamon yelled. Rika jumps back from the attack. They stop to look at Guilmon. He just smiles and waves a greymon card.
"This seems to change the fight a little," Renamon said kicking at Rika. Rika skids across the ground to next to Takato.
"I don't know how but we need to be careful," Takato told Rika as he helps her up. "Renamon is more experienced at fighting than you but Guilmon never used the cards before."
"We're practicing like this because Rika can use her attacks very well but she never fought before," Renamon said as she charges at her.
Ryo watch from the side line. She turns from the fight to watch Monodramon chase a group of male digimon with a broom. 'I need to thank him for keeping those boys away from me,' she thinks. She turns back to the fight and watches Renamon stop Rika while trying to use her diamond storm.
"Not bad for a beginner Rika," Renamon said, "But knowing when to use certain attacks is what will make you the winner or the loser of the fight."
"Whatever you say," Rika said with a smirk, "Power paw!"
Renamon is thrown back and regains herself and lands on her feet, "You were planning on doing something like that the entire time," she said as she's turning around as Rika lands in a crouch before standing and facing Renamon again.
"As you said yourself this is a training fight and some attacks you won't know are coming till it's too late," Rika said, "Also Takato when are you going to swipe one of your cards?"
"I'm not sure which one to use," Takato said, "For a couple reasons, one you have been a human all of your life till now and two I'm not sure how it would affect you exactly."
"Well I'm telling you to use one," Rika said.
"Alright just give me a moment," Takato said as he looks for one that has a rookies attack on it, "Found one, Digi-modify Elecmon's Lightning Knife activate!"
"That's it," Rika said.
"As I said I'm not sure how it will affect you exactly," Takato said, "So till we know that will just have to do ok."
"Fine whatever," Rika said as she starts to feel the affect from the card and forms a knife like dagger out of electricity in her hand, 'Takato you're such a coward at times,' she thinks as she throws it Renamon.
"Like that is going to do any good," Renamon said as she uses her arm to swat away the electric dagger and is caught by surprise as it explodes causing electricity to course through her body and sends her flying back past Guilmon.
"Renamon are you ok," Guilmon asked.
"Don't worry I'm fine," Renamon said, "Though I would swear that attack came from a medium to high powered champion level digimon if I didn't know better."
"Rika are you feeling ok," Takato asked.
"I'm fine," Rika said, 'Dang that took a lot out of me, how does Renamon do it with out feeling a little exhausted after it?'
"Not bad," Renamon said, "But you're still new." She runs at her as Rika gets ready to block the attack and she watches as Renamon fades away and then she is kicked in the back. "You may have control over the attacks," Renamon said, "but you just don't know how to use them."
Rika kicks at Renamon and rolls to her feet. "I'll show you," Rika said as she jumps at Renamon and she easily dodges Rika's punch.
"You know Rika you're being sloppy with your attacks at the moment," Renamon said.
"Renamon I trained you better then this," Rika said as she lands a kick in Renamon's gut.
"What are you talking about," Renamon asked both a little curious and confused as Rika runs at her and she grabs her and throws her over her and Rika lands on her back.
"I can tell that you are holding back at the moment," Rika said as she jumps to her feet, "I told you multiple times never to hold back at all."
"I'm only holding back because we are only training," Renamon said as she grabs Rika's leg as she tries to kick her only to get kicked in the chin with Rika's other foot as she sends her to the ground on her back again and shakes the blow off, "And I don't want to seriously hurt you and you wouldn't be able to keep up with me either."
'Hmm which card to use,' Guilmon thinks as he looks at the cards Takato gave him for this training fight and sees the hyper wing card, 'Ah one of Takato's favorite cards to use.' Guilmon grabs the card and swipes it through the d-arc, "Digi-modify Hyper Wing activate," he yelled.
"Two can play at that," Takato said as he grabs the same card out of the cards he still has, "Digi-modify Hyper Wing activate," he yelled swiping the card through his d-arc.
"Looks like we are taking this fight to the sky for awhile," Renamon said with a grin as she flies up into the air easily.
'Maybe that wasn't a good idea,' Takato thinks seeing Rika having a lot of trouble controlling her movements with the wings.
"You know Rika with how slow and out of control you are moving I could probably take a nap before you even reach me," Renamon taunted.
"That does it Renamon," Rika yelled as here movements become less erratic and more controlled, "Stop playing around and actually show me your real strength or are you too much of a coward too."
Renamon becomes more seriously do to the fact that Rika hit a nerve by saying that, "So you really want me to show you how strong and fast I am," Renamon said, "Then I will."
"I will take your best shot," Rika said only to find herself laying on her back on the ground as she finished the sentence, 'Huh what just happened,' she thinks as she gets up feeling sore all over from the impact into the ground.
"You know Rika if you realize I'm too much for you," Renamon said standing about ten feet away from Rika with her arms crossed, "You could always decide that we end this fight right now."
"I'm not giving up," Rika said as she runs at Renamon and teleports behind her to try to kick her only to receive a sweep kick from Renamon and land on her back again as she appears behind her.
