Chapter Three

"Yamato…do you think Hikari is acting strange around Daisuke and I?" asked Takeru sitting on the chair peacefully drinking tea. Today was when Takeru visited his big brother, Yamato, for a sibling reunion they always had on Saturdays. The blond boy glanced at his blond brother cooking something that smelled really delicious.

"I'm not sure Takeru," was the big brothers answer. "Maybe she's just sick."

Takeru gave him a glare, but he knew that he didn't see it. The young blond boy sighed tipping his chair, but not falling any moment. Hikari and Takeru had a special bond that nobody can break, except for them, but that was different. All the other digidestined always think that Hikari and him would be girlfriend and boyfriend. He didn't even know how he felt for her at all. Sometimes his feelings change to overprotected brother to a lover getting jealous of men she hangs out with. The boy sighed and began to eat the food that Yamato had put in front of him. He stole a glance to his brother and then back to his food. If only someone would talk to him about his confusing feelings…

"I can't wait till you marry Sora," muttered Takeru without any emotion in his eyes. Yamato dropped his chopsticks and looked at his brother. Yamato's strawberry face was priceless.

"Alright we should get a ride from someone to go to the ranch," said Koushiro mostly to himself rather than Hikari. He was holding a piece of paper on his right hand and a small map on his left. It was a good thing that he had printed out a map before he left his house. He surely didn't want to get lost. Both digidestined were on the dark road, waiting for anything to appear. What they mostly wanted was a car or truck to pass by and give them a ride to Wallace's house.

Hikari sighed starring at the moon, which shone brightly. She glanced at a poor confused Koushiro who was trying to think how long it would take for them to go to the farm that Wallace lives in. The young girl smiled at him, without him they would probably still be inside that café. Both had snuck out by opening the window carefully and getting out of there. Of course it was all her idea on getting out from the window, but Koushiro made the calculations, both of them were a pretty good team.

Almost falling asleep Hikari noticed that two lights were coming towards them, it belonged to a blue truck. She yelled for Koushiro to come and take a look, which he obediently did so. Both their faces had a happy smile of delight and excitement. Koushiro waved his arms trying to get the attention of the driver early so that he or she wouldn't pass them, not to mention he was trying to say 'Stop' in his best English.

To both of their delight the truck did stop and a man took a glance outside his window to see two Japanese kids on the middle of the road. The man was hiding his brown hair by his red hat on top of him, he had a white t-shirt under a sleeveless jean jacket, and also his shaved beard that went to his cheeks down to his cheeks could be seen. The man raised an eyebrow at the two of them.

"My, now tell me why two Asian kids here are in the middle of nowhere?" the man asked peering down at them. The truck was a bit big and was wide too.

Koushiro stepped forward and cleared his throat. "Do you know where Colorado is?"

The man grinned and with his booming voice he said. "Yeah, it's almost a few miles from here, I just came from Sacramento to Utah and I'm going to a near by town in Colorado, I can give you and your pretty girlfriend a lift."

Koushiro blushed at the girlfriend comment and told Hikari that the nice man will give them a ride to Colorado where Wallace lives, of course he didn't tell her about the girlfriend comment. Hikari beamed at bend down to give a formal thank you.

"Arigatou!" he heard her say. While the two of them went to grab their suitcase and their other things the man scratched his head.

"Did she just spoke to me in Chinese or Japanese?" he questioned himself. When the two teens put their bags on the back of the big wide truck. Koushiro opened the car door and sat next to the man then Hikari sat next to Koushiro.

"Thanks you," said Koushiro being very grateful to the stranger.

"No problem kid! Ah, call me Billy, and you two are?"

"Izumi Koushiro and Yagami Hikari," said Koushiro putting his seatbelt, Hikari followed his movements also putting her seatbelt on.

"Sounds Japanese," Billy said now starting to drive. Koushiro nodded to him looking at the road. Hikari looked at her older friend and did the same actions as he did.

"So why are you and your girlfriend here?" asked Billy trying to start a conversation. Koushiro turned red and waved his hands.

"She no girlfriend! J-Just friend, best friend's sister!" he tried to explain. Hikari raised an eyebrow and questioned herself what was going on to make Koushiro feel uncomfortable. She ignored it and looked at the road, passing by trees and dirt.

Billy laughed and then stopped and said this to himself. "My never knew Japanese people hits on their best friends sister."

Koushiro turned pale and took a peek at a tiered Hikari, who was fighting a battle into sleep or not to sleep. In the end she fell asleep on his shoulders. He gave a groan. 'Why, why did I come here…'

--

"Whaat?!" cried Daisuke on top of his lungs, he was on the other line. Taichi had just told him that Hikari and Koushiro went on a hiking trip alone. Taichi gave a small satisfied grin and began to wonder how to play with Daisuke's little heart. Then something clicked. He could have advantages of the poor boy, of course he couldn't do that to Takeru since he would figure that he was messing around, but Daisuke on the other hand…

"Yes, Koushiro asked Hikari to accompany him to the woods," said Taichi grinning like a maniac. "They'll be gone for a whole week, alone."

Taichi heard the other line hanging up. The brunette stared at the phone that he was holding and gave a cat grin that Tailmon had taught him to do in mischievous times. "He he he he he…."

Once he got back to himself her noticed that it was almost dark in Odaiba. He also imaged Daisuke trying to find more information about Hikari and Koushiro's hiking trip.

"We're here!" boomed Billy stopping the truck in a gas station. Koushiro opened his eyes and looked around where he was. He noticed that Billy got off of the truck and then looked down at the extra weight that was on his shoulders, there leaned Hikari sleeping peacefully probably dreaming of her Wallace. Koushiro smiled, she did look peaceful probably having a good dream. He began to shake her trying to wake the girl up, he successfully eventually did wake her up.

"Hikari-san, we're here now. In Colorado," he whispered trying to get her full attention. Which matter of fact it did get her full attention. Koushiro chuckled at her disappointed face.

"Where's the farm?" she questioned.

"Well Billy-san said that we'll be there at least thirty more minutes," he said grabbing his backpack, which held his computer and some other things.

"Oh…" mumbled the girl next to him. Koushiro noticed that Billy was coming towards them and then opened the door. He gave a kind smile to a now awake Hikari and asked both of them if they wanted to eat something. Of course the two of them shook their heads to say a no. Billy shrugged and sat on the drivers' seat. He glanced at the paper that Koushiro had given him, before the kid fell asleep last night.

"This address does look familiar, I'll just drop you off a few yards away from your friends' house."

"Thank you very much," said Koushiro smiling at the older man. Hikari tried to mimic Koushiro but failed miserably. The redhead smirked and chuckled at her determination. In Japanese he began to talk to her. "You know once we get to Wallace's house, I'll try to teach you the English that I know. Sounds good?"

Hikari nodded excited for now trying to master the language called English. Finally the thirty minutes passed by pretty fast. Both Hikari and Koushiro waved at Billy when he left them at the field. Once the truck was gone, Hikari took a deep breath and smiled. Already wanting to see Wallace.

"He was nice," she said now walking in a road that would lead to a house. Koushiro on the other hand, found the man annoying because of the girlfriend comments. Of course he wouldn't tell Hikari that at all. Finally the two of them were now in front of the house, Hikari ran to the house and softly knocked on the door. Waiting only a few seconds Wallace had opened the door.

He was a blond hair boy with blue eyes. Right now he wore brown shorts and a pale red shirt. He grinned when he saw Hikari's smiling face. Then he glanced back at Koushiro holing his two suitcases. Wallace gave a chuckle then spoke Japanese to Hikari. "You're brother got you a chaperone?"

Hikari nodded blushing a bit. "S-Sort of."

He smiled at Hikari and went over to Koushiro taking one suitcase that he was having trouble carrying. Koushiro thanked him and followed him inside the house. It wasn't big nor was it small, but it was a house where everything was kept clean. The three of them entered the living room and sat down, putting the luggage's on the left side of the room. Koushiro sat one the left side of the room leaving the other two sit on the lovers' chair.

"I'm sorry I couldn't pick you up at all…" he mumbled scratching his head.

Hikari shook her head. "No it's okay! It was fun anyway, wasn't it Koushiro?"

Koushiro not really paying attention, since he was looking around the place, still nodded.
"Yeah…fun."

Wallace took a glance at Koushiro then tilted his head. The boy looked extremely familiar, yet he didn't know who exactly he was (besides his name). Hikari noticed this and chuckled a bit. "That's Koushiro Izumi, he's a dig destined like us. He bares the crest of Knowledge. "

Wallace eyes popped open. "I-Izumi-san?"

Koushiro slowly turning his head to face Wallace and Hikari, tilted his head. "What?"

"I'm Wallace…or Willis it's my online pen name," said Wallace putting his hands forward to the redhead. Koushiro smiled and shook his hand.

"I know perfectly well who you are, a couple of years back with Diablomon."

Hikari cocked her head, not fully understanding what was going on. "Diablomon?"

"I'll tell you later Hikari-chan," said Wallace heading for the kitchen. "Anybody thirsty or hungry?"

"I am!" Hikari said raising her hand up. Hikari then ran over to help Wallace with the drinks and food they would get to eat later on. Both of them entered the kitchen laughing along the way.

Koushiro nodded and looked outside the window. All he saw was a road leading to a field full of yellow daisies. He gave a small smirk and then sighed. He couldn't believe he was in America at all. Then something occurred to him.

'What will Daisuke and Takeru think once they noticed that Hikari and I aren't in Japan?' he thought. Koushiro shrugged his shoulders and began to look outside.

Houjun Ri: Finally this is done. Right now I'm starting on chapter four which we will meet Mimi! Haha, I can't believe I used to not like her. I guess it's because the American version screwed her character up. Oh well, yeah some hints of Sorato here and there. Hope you guys enjoyed this even though it seems a bit boring. XD;; Review. ;D
