Dinner came around and Beelzemon found himself sitting alone with the exception of Ken, who, shockingly (maybe not so) was turned into…a Digimon, Sorcerermon to be exact. He sat in the shadows, calmly watching his master.
"Is she the One?" Beelzemon asked, examining his wine glass.
"She is".
"Dang it all!" the Demon Lord stood.
"Why worry? If anything, you should be happy".
"Because she now has a right to know, but I don't…want her knowing".
"Don't tell her then. Let us do it".
"No, it's not your, Yolei's, nor anyone's place to do so. If anyone, it'll be me saying anything to her".
"I see…you're tempted to tell her the truth".
"Where is she?".
"I know not".
"Find her! She probably got lost or something! Make sure she isn't hurt!".
"You care about her?".
"Look, just do as I say!".
"I'll search everywhere and make sure she comes to you unharmed".
"You better, you pathetic excuse for a Digimon!".
It was easy getting lost, so Renamon learned. She found herself in an eerie dark corridor. Something, instinct, told her she shouldn't be there, but something stronger, curiosity perhaps, drew her onward.
Renamon continued down the hall until she came to a very old room that hadn't been cleaned for years. In the center of the room was a table, circular and small. On it were two items. One was a beautiful black rose in a glass case. Some of its petals had fallen, but not withered away for some weird reason. The other item was a mirror.
She examined the room and the items thoroughly without actually touching anything. The fox Digimon was hoping to learn more about Beelzemon through this place, but someone interrupted her.
"I see you found it" it was Ken.
"Geez, you scared me!" Renamon turned and faced him suddenly.
"Didn't mean to" he took a graceful bow to the waist and removed his strange hat, "Pardon me".
"It's alright. I take it he's looking for me?".
Ken stood and nodded. "To think Yolei and I doubted you one moment. I should've known you'd be clever enough to find the secret of the West Wing".
"Who? What?".
"Not important. Now tell me, why are you really here?".
A/N: Renamon's got herself a new friend guys. Yes, I'm pairing Ken and Yolei because they deserve it. I made both of them Digimon because they weren't human to begin with. They were, as Ken's new form implies, sorcerers, and the best in the whole Digital World. Just thought I'd fill you in on that. Next Chapter: Renamon's got questions, Ken's got answers. The truth is revealed in the next chapter.
