"Help from the Dragon"
Here is the next chapter. I wanna try and get this done by Christmas. I hope you guys like this and please review.
As soon as Veemon came back, Matt picked him up by the scruff of his neck and carried him into Daisuke's room, the girl watching in confusion as the canine kicked the door shut.
"Well…that was…uh…weird." She said.
She shook her head and walked off to the kitchen to get something to drink, deciding to not even bother with Yama's strange behaviour until later.
"Uh, what cha doing, Yama?" Veemon asked as the dog set him down then trotted over to the lap top that was turned on and had the word pad up on it.
Veemon watched as he picked up a pen in his mouth and started typing out words with it.
After a few minutes he was done and jerked his head to motion Veemon over to come see what he wrote.
The dragon walked over and read what was written, his eyes shooting open to a comical width.
"Veemon, it's me, Matt Ishida.
Gabumon and I were in a temple where the Wolfmon turned me into a dog and now I have to make Daisuke fall in love with me or else I'll suffer being alone for the rest of my life and watch as she gets married to some other guy and has a happy family with them.
I don't want that to happen because I'm in love with her.
I really need you to help me out here, please."
Veemon stepped back with wide red eyes feeling completely shocked from what he had just read.
He slowly turned to the dog, seeing the same look he usually saw in the child of Friendship's eyes.
"Holy Azulongmon! Matt? Why didn't cha tell the others? We coulda helped ya with this before." Veemon said as he placed a hand on the canine's head.
Matt shook the hand off and picked the pen back up and typed in his next response.
"I didn't know how to.
I thought you guys would think I was crazy and Daisuke would freak out about this.
Strabimon, Wolfmon's son, has been visiting me in my dreams telling me that I had to hurry up with getting her to admit she loves me.
I only have until Christmas.
This is why I really need your help.
So…can you help me?"
Veemon narrowed his eyes in thought as the canine gave him the kicked puppy look, whining a bit in a begging tone.
He was really desperate if he was asking for his help, this the dragon knew.
He crossed his arms as he thought deeper on this situation.
Matt was their friend and he needed help; he couldn't just be left to deal with such a terrible fate.
Plus, Daisuke deserved to have someone love her and take care of her, which Matt was happy to do.
He looked into those azure eyes and saw that he meant every word that had said…typed.
"All right, I'll help ya." Veemon said making Matt perk up and wag his tail.
"But be warned, if ya hurt her, I'll kill ya." The dragon said being completely serious about it.
Anyone who dared to hurt her mentally or physically, he would make sure they paid the price for it.
Matt yipped in understanding.
A few days later, Veemon kept asking he child of Miracles questions about Matt and what she thought about him while the canine hung around to listen eagerly to what she had to say.
He was thrilled to hear that what she said were all positive things.
When Veemon asked if she thought of him as more than a friend, her cheeks burned in a blush causing the dragon to tease her about it and she would put him in a headlock as he laughed and Matt's tail wagged rapidly when he saw that he had a chance of being with her after all if she had feelings for him.
Daisuke was strumming away on her guitar while Veemon asked her more questions about predecessor of Friendship, the canine resting on the floor as he listened to them.
"OK, so what about Matt do ya like da most?" the dragon asked as he wrote the notes down in digi code.
Daisuke paused in her strumming as she thought that question over.
She didn't know why he wanted to know, but decided to go along with it.
"I guess it would be how protective he is over TK." She said as he wrote this down.
"What do you think about cologne?" Veemon asked.
"Ugh, no. I don't like it. The smells usually make me nauseous." She said wrinkling her nose as he snickered as Matt tucked this information away in his mind.
"Places you'd go for a date?" the dragon asked.
"Maybe the movies or a restaurant. Or just stay at home and rent a movie. Baking also sounds kinda fun." She said thoughtfully resting her hands and head on the body of her guitar.
Matt mentally smiled in relief at this, knowing that she would be easy to please and he wouldn't have to go out of his way to make her happy.
As long as he didn't say anything that she took he wrong way and pissed her off.
"OK, I have to ask. Why do you want to know this stuff?" Daisuke asked standing up and walking over to her guitar stand, setting it down.
"Well, I was just wonderin' why you never had a boyfriend before. I mean, you're pretty and I know boys think that too since Willis kissed you and even those two boys from the different dimensions liked you too. Those boys, um, Takuya and Masaru kissed you on the cheek." Veemon said making the canine's tail flick in agitation that someone had dared to kiss his she wolf.
"Great, now I'm starting to talk like Strabimon. But she is mine though. If anyone touches her, I'll tear them apart." Matt snarled at the thought.
The girl gasped when she heard the sound and turned to her dog.
"Hey, what's wrong with you, Yama?" she asked walking over to him and sitting down in front of him.
Matt looked up at her and gave a happy dog look as he wagged his tail and lapped at her jaw, making her laugh.
"I love you too, Yamato." She said kissing his snout.
He froze up when he heard what she said, the words still going over in his head as she got up and left the room when she heard her father call her name.
The blue dragon hopped off of the bed and walked over to the dog as he stared into space.
"Well, looks like you're half way there. She loves the dog you. Now we just need her to love the human you." He said.
Matt growled at him with a glare, making the dragon smile as he backed off.
"Yeah, yeah. I know. Shut up." He said.
That night, Matt was visited again by Strabimon, the wolf smirking at the child of Friendship.
The blonde male frowned at him as he crossed his arms, unsure of what he wanted.
"What now?" Matt asked.
"Come with me. I have a surprise for you." Strabimon said leading him through the misty area and they soon entered the temple that started all of the trouble.
Matt watched as they walked pass all of the carvings on the walls and stopped dead in his tracks when he saw that Wolfmon was standing there in front of him alive and was smirking.
"Yamato Ishida, child of Friendship. Meet Wolfmon the father of the Gururumon tribes and the children who inherit Friendship." Strabimon said.
"You? You're Wolfmon?" the blonde asked as the blonde haired, red eyed warrior walked towards him, light reflecting off of his armour.
"That I am." Wolfmon said.
"I have to say, it's a pleasure to meet one of my children. I am so proud of you." He said placing a comforting hand on Matt's should, this aura of security radiating off of him.
"For what?" Matt asked.
"For your courage and selflessness when you and your friends fought the Dark Masters, MalMyotismon and Diaboramon. You never gave up and stood by them no matter what. I could never be more proud of a child." Wolfmon said.
"What about Daisuke?" Strabimon asked.
Wolfmon looked over at him and smiled softly at the mention of his daughter and all of the hardships she had overcame throughout the years, growing into a strong, beautiful girl.
But she wasn't just his daughter, she was also the daughter of Agnimon and he was just as proud as he was over her since she was his only child who hadn't turned her partner evil by accident.
Wolfmon shook those thoughts from his mind and pulled his son over to his pedestal, allowing him to sit.
"I figured it was time for us to meet face to face since the time is up." Wolfmon said.
"Time's up? What do you mean?" Matt asked as fear consumed him.
"I have four days left until I make Daisuke fall in love with me." He said.
Strabimon laughed as he ran his clawed hand through the silvery tuff of fur on his head.
"You'll see what we mean soon enough." He said.
Matt looked at them curiously, then faded back into his sleep hazed mind.
