1Hello to everyone!! Sorry for not updating last week. It was due to school work. And exams are coming in. Anyway, this is the longest chapter I've written yet. And it's basically filler. There will be action next chapter.
ENJOY!!XD
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN DIGIMON. I WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THE ENDING, THAT'S WHY I'M WRITING THIS FIC
After the battle everyone ran towards an alley carrying their injured digmons.
"No one should notice us here", Tai said.
"My, you kids made such a mess out there", a female voice said from deep in the alley.
"Who's there?!", Davis picked up a pipe lying around and raised it.
The woman revealed herself to the children. It was Ms. Nonaka and beside her was Renamon.
"Ms. Nonaka?!", TK and Davis said in unison.
"Is she one of your teacher?", Sora asked Kari and the girl nodded.
"Let's go, people will soon come. I already called a friend to take care of this", the teacher said and went deeper into the alley.
Kari was the only one to walk on ahead of the others.
"Kari wait!", Tai said, "Should we trust her?"
"Tai, she saved my life and TK's as well. Maybe that's more than enough to trust her", she said.
"Fine then. It looks we don't have any other choice, let's go everyone", Tai announced to the rest of the group and everyone nodded in agreement. They all went deeper into the alley until they reached a street and there they saw Ms. Nonaka standing in front of a van and Renamon was nowhere in sight.
"Took you kids long enough", she said then she opened one of the passenger doors, "get in, before someone sees those digimons." she went to the back and opened the rear door, "put your digimons here.", everyone agreed and let their digimons in the rear.
Every sat uncomfortably inside the van. The first row was the girls; they couldn't fit at the sits so someone had to go to the back with the boys but it wouldn't be a good idea. The boys on the other hand had it much worse. Joe was pushed to the corner and Davis went scrambling in and then TK who was pushed further in by Matt. Izzy and Ken wouldn't get on the back because it was already crowded. Joe's face was sticking on the window because of his younger friends. The two geniuses went in with the girls at the first row sitting on the floor but the two couldn't fit very well so the girls scrambled around. Tai was the only one sitting at the front seat with Ms. Nonaka.
"Everyone ready?", she asked as she sat down at the driver's seat.
"Yeah..", everyone said weakly.
"Okay then", she started the car and started driving.
"Where are you taking us?", Tai asked.
"To school", she said while keeping her eyes on the road, "it's the only place where we can all talk safely."
"TAI!! THAT'S UNFAIR!!", everyone was shouting at the back.
"What!?", he asked looking puzzled.
Then Sora locked her arm around Tai's neck and made the boy gasp for air.
"We wish for the leader to suffer along with the whole troop", Sora said with an evil tone on her voice and everyone agreed.
They arrived at Odaiba high school several minutes later. Ms. Nonaka led them to the empty teacher's lounge.
"What are we doing here? What if someone comes in?", asked Matt.
"It's Sunday. Tell me, who goes to school in Sundays?", she eyed the blonde.
"Apparently us", Matt thought but he just kept silent as the teacher stared coldly at him.
"Anyway", she looked away from Matt and looked at the digimons," help yourselves with the fridge I'm sure you're all hungry".
"Wow!! Really?!", Veemon said and the teacher just nodded.
"YEY!!", and all the digimon charged towards the fridge and ate almost anything they could find inside. The digidestineds felt jealous because it was lunchtime and they hadn't eaten anything yet.
"Don't worry kids, I'm sure you're hungry too. I already called for some pizza", Ms. Nonaka said as she sat down on her chair."
"So", everyone turned to Izzy,"who are you exactly? I don't believe an average teacher could have a digimon partner like us."
"Hmmm", she drew out a folder out from one of her drawers," Koushiro Izumi or Izzy for short age 17, third year high school. They say you're a lot smarter for your age. A genius most people would put it. Your first digimon adventure was back when you were in fourth grade", Izzy felt violated as Ms. Nonaka read through his file, "a straight A student but never an athlete. Your class is looking forward for you to become the valedictorian next school year", Ms. Nonaka smiled as Izzy glared at her.
"Hey! Isn't that illegal?", Tai said.
"Taichi Yagami or Tai for short. Age 18, fourth year high school. Not the brightest but not the dumbest either. Highly skilled soccer player and the leader of the group known as the digidestineds"
"Answer my question?", Izzy said with an anger filled tone in his voice, "who are you? And why are you at our school?"
Ms. Nonaka slammed the folder shut and looked at Izzy," I was asked by the sovereigns to watch over you kids."
"You knew the sovereigns!?", Izzy asked in disbelief.
"They asked me 4 months ago", she replied.
"Then where did you get those information about us", Tai asked.
"School records and some aggressive research", she replied as she looked at the digimons munching away the faculty's food supply.
Suddenly someone knocked on the door.
"Renamon!", Ms. Nonaka called as she stood up. Renamon instantly appeared above the digimons and covered them with a huge blanket. Ms. Nonaka opened the door to find a pizza delivery boy carrying 6 large boxes of pizza.
"Hi there", the teacher smiled politely at the delivery boy it's as if she was different person.
"Ummm, delivery for Rika Nonaka?", the boy asked.
"That's me", she replied.
"Whoa! Can we eat all those?", TK asked Kari.
Kari giggled, "of course we can, if we try."
Ms. Nonaka pulled the amount the boy said and some tip then handed it to the delivery boy. She took the pizzas and closed the door behind her.
The teenagers took slices of pizza and started to eat lunch.
"So uh..", Davis began after swallowing his piece," who's your friend cleaning our mess down by the beach?"
"You'll meet him someday. He likes to do those kinds of jobs", Ms. Nonaka replied.
Ken and Yolie were talking beside Davis when they noticed Kari and TK closer than usual.
TK was talking to Kari when Kari suddenly picked something off of TK's cheeks.
"Uhh Davis", Ken whispered to his friend," aren't you going to..", he pointed towards Kari and TK.
"What's the matter with them?", he asked then looked at where he was pointing then just shrugged.
"What!?", Yolie said spitting some pizza on Ken, "do you have a fever or something?"
"Ugh!", Ken said as he picked out the pizza out of his face.
"What? They've always been like that", the goggled boy simply said as he picked up another slice of pizza. The goggle boy had witnessed that scene dozens of times during their lunch break on schooldays in junior high and recently in high school. It bothered him at first but it died out..
"So you're not going to lash out at him", the curious boy genius asked.
"No.. Why should I??", Davis took a bite then swallowed it.
Ken and Yolie's jaws drop when they heard what their friend said.
After eating lunch, everyone got settled and started to ask questions and all the digimons were asleep.
"What do you know about the sovereigns?", Izzy asked.
"Nothing much. They just told me something about the four points", she replied.
"The four points? What's that?", Davis asked.
"The four points", Ken began to explain to the group," are the four main locations in the digital world or I may put it as the four corners of the digital world. But that's all I know about it. You should asked Gennai for more details."
"You could ask him now", Ms. Nonaka revealed her desktop computer. It seems she was logging in to the digital world while everyone was eating lunch.
"Hello Digidestineds," an image of Gennai appeared on the screen, "I believe you have met an agent of the sovereigns"
"Gennai they were asking about the four points, I don't know much about it either", Ms. Nonaka said.
"Allow me to explain", the old man cleared his throat and began with the explanation," the four points are where the sovereigns used to dwell. Right now, remnants of the sovereigns are being kept by the Devas. If these remnants fall to the wrong hands, the last sovereign has no choice but to awaken. Only when all crests are at full power you can stop the dark digidestineds from doing so "
"But Tai's the only one who has transformed", Sora said.
"I'm sure all of your crests will reach its full power in time, just don't lose hope. After all, it is hope that allowed you to have these powers", Gennai said and everyone turned to TK.
"So once we could use all our crest we should go to those four points and battle whoever the dark digidestineds are", Izzy said.
Joe's watch suddenly beeped and everyone turned their heads to him. He looked at his watch an said, "I'm sorry guys but I have to go", then he grabbed his bag and Gomamon.
"Uhh, what's going on", the marine digimon said as he rubbed his eyes.
"We're leaving Gomamon", the college digidestined said and his digimon jumped in to his bag, "I'll see you guys"
"bye Joe!", everyone said in unison.
"E-mail me the details later", and with that he left.
"Actually, there's nothing more I could say", Gennai said.
"Well, there's nothing much we could do for now", Kari said.
"We have to wait for everyone to gain their powers. Until then, we continue with high school", Izzy said and everyone nod in agreement, "anyway, thanks Gennai you've helped us once again"
"No problem", the old man replied.
"Oh, and do you have any idea who would have opened the gate to dark ocean?", Ken asked.
"No why? Did someone opened it", Gennai said.
"Yeah, the strange thing is Daemon would've come out of it once it opened but what came out are strange beings from the Dark Ocean", Ken said.
"Hmmm, I'll look into it", Gennai said as he stroke his beard, "I'll let you know if something comes up. Until next time digidestineds." the old man waved at the children and they all said goodbye to him as well, then monitor turned off.
Ms. Nonaka turned to them and said," So I'll see you kids tomorrow then"
"Except for us. We don't go here", Yolie said
"Right, well then I'll take all of you back to your houses", Ms. Nonaka said. Then everyone grabbed their things and their digimons then went to Ms. Nonaka's van. Everyone got off to their apartments. Yamato insisted on staying with TK for the rest of the day. He's still worried about the incident yesterday.
The last place was TK's apartment. Yamato and Gabumon already got off and went on ahead of TK and Patamon.
"TK", Ms. Nonaka called out as TK passed the driver's seat window.
"Yes?", he replied.
"Don't get involved anymore", she stated in a firm tone.
"What? But why?",the blonde said as he cradled a sleeping Patamon in his arms.
"I saw your digimon not being able to do anything", she said," I know how much you want to help your friends but you can't fight these battles. If you keep on insisting to fight you might end up hurt or worse."
TK looked down on the ground trying to digest what his teacher had told him.
"Don't forget your homework tomorrow", she said and then drove away.
TK stared sadly at the direction where Ms. Nonaka drove off.
"TK what's wrong", a sleepy voice in his arms said.
TK forced a painful smile and looked at his digimon partner and said,"oh nothing. Let's go Matt's cooking something upstairs."
Patamon noticed the fake smile his partner is putting up for him, "I'm sorry TK"
"For what?", the blonde boy tried to act cheerful as they entered the elevator. He pushed their floor and the elevator closed with only the two of them inside.
"For not being able to digivolve", Patamon said sadly and buried his face.
TK felt the shame his partner was experiencing. Just like that time in their first adventure, he was last one to reach his champion form. But now, it seems he won't be able to do it, even with the digiegg of hope.
Four days had passed since the incident at the beach. Just like what Ms. Nonaka said, someone did cover up the whole incident. The streets were fully repaired people were already passing by the location as if nothing happened. On schooldays, the digidestined had all agreed to gather at the roof during lunchtime. It was the only time they all can get together and discuss their future plans. Although Davis didn't have a crest goes to the meeting very often more often than TK.
TK only attended once and since he felt he didn't have a part in it anymore he just didn't go. Friday came, Davis saw TK lying under a tree by the school yard while walking with his soccer buddies. He wanted to talk to him about the meeting but he saw someone else came over to TK. A girl with black hair, it seems like she was a member of the cheering squad.
"Is she flirting with him?", Davis thought.
"Hey dude! come on!", a boy yelled at him.
"Come on Davis, they're waiting for us", a girl from behind him grabbed his arm. Davis blushed a little.
"Yeah, sure", he replied and decided to ask TK about this issue later in class.
Kari was at the roof with the rest of the digidestineds except for TK, Davis and Joe. She was looking down at the school yard. Somehow she knew someone was lying underneath a particular tree. Someone she knew. A girl ran towards that tree she was oddly familiar.
"Is she in our class?", she thought. Just like a sixth sense, she knew she doesn't like that girl.
"What are you looking at?", Mimi asked playfully.
"Oh nothing.", she replied and smiled back.
"You're looking for him, aren't you?", Mimi said but Kari was too distracted by the girl talking to someone under the tree, "so, where is he?"
Without even knowing she answered, "He's under that tree"
"Kari! Izzy wants to talk to you about something!", Tai called out. She turned her head and weakly smiled at Mimi then she went towards her brother and the boy genius.
Mimi looked at the tree Kari was talking about and saw a girl dragging someone under the tree. The pulled out a blonde boy and the girl locked her arms on his arms.
"Hmm, good guess?", Mimi thought, "and who's that girl?", she turned around and skipped towards the rest of her friends.
During PE class, they were all doing long jumps and it was the girl's turn. The boys were sitting on the bench watching the girls.
"Sakura Takemura!", the PE teacher called out then a girl emerged from the rest of the girls.
"GO!", the teacher yelled and the girl started to dash.
"So where have you been all week?", Davis sat beside TK he was trying to start a conversation with him but TK keeps on zoning out.
"Around", he simply said.
"Lily Kanzaki!", the teacher called out. Lily sprang to her feet and waved at TK. The boy just stared.
"Around? I haven't talked to you all week. And Matt's been bugging me and Kari on what you've been up to lately", Davis blurted out, "plus, Kari's not in the best mood lately. maybe you should stop flirting with that girl"
"Who's flirting?", TK turned his head surprised with what Davis had said.
"You are. With Lily. Everyone knows she had flirted with all the guys in school. Even with me twice!", TK was surprised by the news his friend was giving to him, "and I bet she knows you're an easy target".
"Why would I be an easy target?", TK said.
"TK, TK, TK... sweet, innocent TK", Davis said," an athlete walking around without a girlfriend is like a sitting duck for a girl who can't control her hormones"
"What? Is that even true?", TK asked.
"GO!", the teacher yelled and Lily dashed.
"Well, mostly no", Davis watched Lily made a long jump, "but seriously, you know she's not serious about anyone. What if someone gets jealous?"
"Yeah? Like who?", TK asked.
"Kari Yagami!", the teacher called out. Kari stood up and made her way towards the starting point.
"Hmmm", Davis whispered to himself, "these two are clueless."
"GO!!", the teacher yelled and Kari dashed to make her long jump.
"How about you? You don't have a girlfriend", TK said.
"Ha-ha!", Davis said, "and that's proof that you have been missing a lot this week!"
"What!?", TK said looking surprised.
After PE they got to their usual uniforms and went to their last period. While the class waited for the teacher, Kari walked up to TK.
-Flash back-
Lunchtime at the roof.
"Kari. you, TK and Davis should head to the digital world tomorrow. The rest of us has schoolwork, I have to attend some stupid seminar while Mimi dragged the rest of us unto school counseling this weekend", Izzy said.
She nodded and said, "I'll ask them later today. Where exactly in the digital world?"
"The southern hemisphere", he replied.
-end of flashback-
"TK", she said.
"Yes?", whatever TK was thinking Kari snapped him out of it.
"Umm, Izzy wants us to go to the digital world to check something out", Kari asked.
"Sure", TK smiled at her and said," when do we leave?"
"Tomorrow morning", she smiled at him and sat down in front of her best friend, "where have you been all week?", she suddenly changed her expression from cheerful now looking worried.
"Nowhere I'm just around. Why?", he simply said.
"We haven't seen you all week", she said, "we're getting worried especially Matt."
"Hehehe, so I've heard", TK's smile became a little wider, "he said he is going to stay at the house tonight. and he's going to make something special for mom when she arrives"
"Really? Like what?", Kari asked.
"When he says special, he really means punishment", TK said now looking a bit scared for his mom, "so I really don't know what he's going to do, I think he's upset about her leaving me alone for two weeks."
Kari giggled, "he's just worried about you".
Lily suddenly appeared separating the two.
"Hey Tee-kee!", she said.
"Tee-kee!?", Kari thought and somehow she felt her blood pressure rise all of a sudden but she didn't want to show it.
"Oh, hey Lily", TK said, "I believe you've met Kari right?"
Lily turned her head towards Kari and changed her look from being polite to a menacing one for one quick second and changed it back to being polite. She then held out her hand, "I!"
Kari noticed it and she was surprised at first but she brushed it off and shook hands with her, "right, hi"
Lily then turned back to TK and asked a question,"hey Tee-kee, do you have any plans for tomorrow? We could go to the mall tomorrow just the TWO of us"
"ACTUALLY, he already has plans for the whole day, right?", Kari blurted out, she tried her hardest to be polite.
"Aww, how about next week?", Lily insisted.
"I'm not sure Lily, the team has practice next week.", TK said, this calmed Kari a little.
"Okay then, tell me when you'll be free, okay? See ya Tee-kee!", she winked at him and then just left.
"The nerve!", Kari said.
"What?", TK asked.
"Oh! Nothing! Hehehe", Kari said shaking her head.
Ms. Nonaka entered their class and everyone went to their proper seats and greeted the teacher.
"Don't forget to read the chapters I mentioned I will quiz all of you next week, that is all. Stand!", Ms. Nonaka announced and everyone stood up at the same time, "bow!", she said and everyone lowered their heads then stood up straight, "have good weekend everyone".
After class, Lily ran out and went behind the building. And there she met up with Ichiro and Tom.
"So, how much longer?", Ichiro asked.
"I couldn't convince him, that girl Kari is in the way.", Lily said crossing her arms.
"I thought you were an expert at these kind of things, so why haven't you convinced him yet", Tom said.
"I am! But it'll take more time", Lily said, "they have plans tomorrow. Maybe they're going there, then we can be sure to capture his angel"
"humph, I could send one right now", Ichiro said while taking out his digivice.
Haru came with a girl beside him.
"So, are these your friends? Hi I'm Yu— what are you doing?", just before the girl could finish her sentence Haru grabbed her arms then Ichiro pointed his digivice towards the girl and started to send data to her.
"What the? What is this?! Let go of me!", the girl demanded, just when Haru released her dark energy started to engulf the girl. She transformed into a digimon wearing a pink whole body armor with a pile bunker on her right hand.
"Your orders?", the digimon bow down to Ichiro.
"Crusadermon, come with us to digital world and there you will eliminate the holder of light", the boy said.
"As you wish", with that the digimon stood up and followed the dark digidestineds.
Evening came and Matt did stay at TK's apartment when v their mom arrived.
"Welcome home!!", Matt, TK and their digimons greeted Ms. Takaishi with a feast thanks to Matt.
"Wow! So much food, what's the occasion? I've only been gone for two weeks.", Ms. Takaishi said.
"That's too long mom, what if something happened to TK while your away", Matt said as he serve 3 bowls of rice at the table.
"Oh? So something happened then. What is it?", She asked.
"No... nothing happened!! Right Matt!", TK said nervously while serving food the digimons.
"You didn't have to say it like that, she'll suspect it!", Patamon whispered to him. TK sighed at what Patamon said. It's a good thing Ms. Takaishi didn't push the subject any further.
They all sat down at the table and prepared to eat.
"THANKS FOR THE FOOD", everyone said and they all took a spoonful of curry and ate it. Ms. Takaishi's face suddenly went red and so did TK's.
"Did Matt cook?", Ms. Takaishi asked TK. The younger boy just nodded trying to endure the extra spices Matt added to the food.
"What's the matter mom? Is it good?", Matt asked.
"Yes dear., it's so good", she said those words while tears ran down her cheeks.
"I made it extra special just for tonight", Matt exclaimed and sounded he was enjoying it.
TK stood up and went to the fridge. He grabbed 3 pitchers of water.
"Good idea son! Good idea!", Ms. Takashi thought, "I think I'm going to try the pork steak", she used her chopsticks to grab one piece of pork steak and ate it. Her face turned redder and more tears poured from her eyes, "how could someone make pork steak this spicy?", she thought.
The digimons on the other hand threw away the curry TK gave them. They'd rather eat dog food that Ms. Takaishi bought them which they did.
After 2 refills of all pitchers, dinner was over. Ms. Takaishi immediately drank a full glass of milk and took a shower. The two brothers were cleaning up the kitchen.
"TK, if something happens make sure you e mail us right away", Matt said while washing the dishes.
"Sure", the younger boy said.
"I'm going to try to ditch the others and follow you as soon as possible", Matt said.
"Mimi is going to get mad, you know", TK said as his towel dry the washed dishes.
"Nah, she won't even know I'm gone", Matt said with an evil grin on his face.
"And how are you going to do that", TK asked.
"You'll see", Matt said and I seems he's pretty confident of his plan.
To be continued!!
