Chapter 2 The Search for Guilmon

Renamon knew that time was of importance while she was jumping to tree to tree, but soon from building to building. While jumping to building to building, she started thinking if she didn't make it back in time. The thought of Guilmon turning in to data particles hurt to much to bare. She grabbed her chest to try to make the pain go away.

'No, stop thinking like that,' Renamon thought,' There's no way Guilmon would lose. He's way to strong, stronger than even me.' That thought ran through her head countless times and it made her feel better.'Was that the reason why I was so mean to him?' She asked herself while landing on a building with a good view of the city clock.

"I'll think about this later," Renamon said, "Right now I need to get the others and help Guilmon. OK, think, Rika said she gets out of school at 2:30." Renamon looked at the city clock. "It's 2:00 now, but Rika's school is on the other side of town. Takato and Henry's school is only a few blocks away. I'll get Takato and Henry first then Rika." She continued jumping from building to building until she got to the school where Takato and Henry was. "Where is he?" She said looking at a window. Renamon focused on the kids and saw a spiky brown haired boy wearing cloths similar to what he wore 5 years ago. He still wore his yellow goggles, his trademark, he still wore a blue pulli just in a bigger size as he is 17 now , he wore beige khaki pants, and still wearing green sneakers. "There he is, "Renamon said with a sigh of relief. She jumped on a building just as high as the window was. Takato was daydreaming and drawing as he had done 5 years prior. Renamon stood on top of the building waiting and hoping he would notice her. Takato turned his head and saw Renamon and his eyes widened with worry and concern. He knew that Renamon only showed up at school if there was an emergency and Renamon and the others need help. Takato shot up and shouted at the teacher. Renamon didn't know what he said because of the window. She saw Takato run out of the room. Renamon knew Takato would be at the entrance soon, so she jumped down to the front of the school. A few seconds later, Takato shot out of the door tripping on the bottom of it landing straight on his face.

"Ow, ow, "Takato moaned.

"Takato, are you alright?" Renamon asked helping him up.

"I'm fine Renamon. Now what's the emergency?" Renamon suddenly remembered Guilmon fighting that digimon that came out of the ground.

"Hurry Takato, call Henry and Rika and tell them to meet us at the park! We have got to save Guilmon!" Renamon shouted with tears now running down her cheeks.

"OK, OK. I don't know what's going on, but don't worry about Guilmon. He can take care of himself. I'm sure he's fine." Takato said trying to reassure Renamon.

"You're right. He's probably fine, but I have to be sure!" She screamed as she took off running back to Shinjuku Park.

"Renamon must really care for Guilmon." Takato said softly, "Just like I do for someone." Takato started to run after Renamon while trying to call Henry on his cell. "C'mon Henry, pick up." After a second or two Henry answered.

"Hello."

"Henry, this is Takato," Takato said in between breaths trying to catch up to Renamon.

"Takato, you sound like your in a hurry. Is everything alright?" Henry asked starting to get worried.

"I don't know what's going on. All I know is that Renamon came to me and asked me to call you and Rika and she sounded worried about Guilmon. Then she took off running toward the park." Takato said out breath, "Man, Renamon can run. I have to stop and rest my legs." Takato moaned.

"Is that everything you know Takato?" Henry asked.

"Yeah, that's pretty much it." Takato said trying to catch his breath.

"Alright Takato, I'll call Rika and let her know what's going on. You go after Renamon and make sure she's OK. Oh, and see if Terriermon is there too. Knowing him he'll be there."

"Gotcha Henry. I'll leave you to it." Takato said hanging up. "Now, I just have to get to the park and find Renamon and Terriermon." Takato said standing up, "Well, better get going." Takato took off running toward Shinjuku park unaware that a purple little digimon was watching him,'Hmmm, wonder what's wrong with fox face.' Impmon thought, 'I better go see what's troubling her.' Impmon then started to the park to see what was ailing her. Renamon by now was almost at the park with tears still running down her cheeks with Takato not far behind.

"RENAMON!Please stop!" Takato shouted as loud as he could. Renamon kept on running not looking behind or anything. "Renamon!Please stop!" Takato shouted once again. This time to his surprise Renamon stopped. Takato caught up to Renamon and noticed that she's still crying.'Oh man, I'm not good at this.' Takato thought, 'What am I supposed to say?'

"Um...Renamon, are you alright?" Takato asked kindly. At this time Renamon turned and hugged Takato with her head buried into his shoulder. "It's OK Renamon, I know I'm Rika, but you can tell me anything and I will do everything in my power to make it right." Takato said trying to reassure her. Renamon lifted her head and wiped away her tears with her paw and said, "I love him."

"You love who...Guilmon." Takato said in shock.

"Yes, I love Guilmon."

"Well, at least its somebody we all know." he said with a cheerful grin. "Now, do you feel better or is there anything else?"

"There is."

"OK, tell me about it."

"This digimon bio-emerged and attacked us, but it was to strong to defeat on our own. Guilmon told me to get you and the others and I'm worried about him."

"It's OK, don't worry about Guilmon. If your worried about him we'll go together to see him, OK?"

"OK." agreed Renamon.

"Alright then, let's go to the park." Takato and Renamon started running toward the park to see Guilmon. They finally reached the entrance and stopped in shock to see the park in ruins. Renamon jumped in the trees while Takato ran on the path towards Guilmon's house. Renamon had to jump back down on the path since the trees have been uprooted. The landscape had uprooted trees, holes everywhere and looked like there was a huge battle. Takato and Renamon made their way to Guilmon's home, but he wasn't there. Renamon's eyes closed and started to tear up. Takato saw this and tried to find Guilmon.

"Guilmon, where are you boy?" Takato yelled. There was no answer.

"Guilmon!" This time Renamon shouted. Yet again there was no answer.

"What, you call for his name and not mine?" asked a familiar voice. Takato and Renamon turned toward a bush and saw a little light green bunny step out.

"Terriermon!" Takato and Renamon both exclaimed.

"What, no need to yell, geez." Terriermon said holding his ears.

"Terriermon," Takato started, "how long have you been here?"

"Not long," Terriermon hesitated, "I...just...got...here." Renamon saw that he was choking on his words.'He knows something.' Renamon thought. Suddenly Renamon jumped and grabbed Terriermon.

"You're lieing!" Renamon shouted holding Terriermon by the throat.

"What...no...I'm...not!" Terriermon shouted between breaths.

"You better start telling the truth or I'm going to make you wish you didn't bio-emerge," threated Renamon.

"Now calm down Renamon," Takato started, "I'm sure..." He was interrupted by Renamon's icy glare. "OK, I'll shut up. Uh Terriermon...you're on your own," Takato said backing away. Renamon looked back at Terriermon with her icy glare.

"OK...OK," Terriermon choked out. Renamon loosened her iron grip making Terriermon fall to the ground gasping for air.

"Huh...huh...I was...here earlier," Terriermon said finally catching his breath.

"How early?" Renamon asked still glaring with her fists clinched.

"Early enough to know that you love Guilmon."

"Oh, you heard that," Renamon said looking down unclinching her fists.

"Is it true?" Terriermon asked.

"Yes it's true."

"Is what true fox face?" Impmon asked walking up the ravaged path.

"Oh Impmon, I didn't notice you," said Renamon looking at him.

"What's dis I hear bout somethin' being true?" Impmon asked stopping a few feet away from her.

"Oh, It's...it's..." Renamon hesitated.

"She loves Guilmon," Terriermon piped in. Renamon looked at Terriermon and then at Impmon who was slightly laughing then started laughing harder and harder with Renamon looking down upset.

"Ahahahahahahaha, you and pineapple head. You can't be serious. How could you love somethin like him? I mean don't get me wrong, he is a good friend, but I just figured you'd find someone as smart as yourself," Impmon pointed out.

"It doesn't matter if he's smart or not," Renamon stated, "It's because of his naivety that I love him. Guilmon's actions are not based on his intellect, but based on his heart. He would gladly risk his life for anyone even if he didn't know them. Would you?" Terriermon didn't say anything, he just kept looking back at Renamon and then at Impmon who was thinking of a answer.

"Mmmmmmm," Impmon thought aloud, "Eeeh, maybe."

"Maybe," Renamon repeated, "Why maybe?"

"Look, I have my reasons and two of those reasons are at home."

"Oh, you mean Ai and Mako. I understand. I'm sorry." Renamon apologized.

"Aaaa, that's OK, I know where ya come from."

While the digimon were having their discussion, Takato was wondering where Henry and Rika was.'They should have been here by now,' Takato thought,'Why aren't they here?' Takato started to look around the ruined park for any sign of the tamers, but to his dismay, he didn't see neither the blue haired boy nor the red haired girl.'Aww man, I didn't see them,' Takato thought once more, 'Oh I know, I'll call Henry. Takato reached for his cell and dialed Henry's number.

"C'mon, C'mon, pick up Henry."

"Hello."

"Aw, Henry, I was calling to see where you and Rika was at."

"Oh, we're not far from the park."

"Wow Henry, I got to say, you're coming in loud and clear, it's almost like you're standing behind me or something."

"That's because we are behind you." Henry said with a light chuckle. Takato turned around and saw the blue haired boy with a brown colored shirt with a brownish-orange vest and light green pants with brownish-grey sneakers and the red haired girl with a white shirt with a heart on it with blue jeans with red sneakers standing next to an uprooted tree.

"Guys you made it," Takato said in an excited tone.

"Yeah, sorry we're late," Henry started, "I called Rika and let her know what's going on, she had to rush home and change, but I couldn't tell her everything."

"Humph, I don't see why not," Rika said in a half-angry tone. At the sound of Rika's and Henry's voice, Renamon and Terriermon turned and saw their tamers.

"Henry!" Terriermon yelled running toward his tamer.

"Hey Terriermon," Henry said kneeling down to pet his partner on the head. "I knew you'd be here. Though I'm wondering how exactly you got away from Suzie and Lopmon?"

"Oh that was easy," Terriermon said with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Oh no, what did you do?" Henry asked.

"Oh relax, I didn't to anything serious, I got Calumon to take my place, heh, heh," Terriermon giggled.

"Huh," Henry sighed, "Terriermon, you're impossible."

"While you two were catching up, someone could be explaining to why Brainiac here called me in the middle of school!" Rika exclaimed, "Gogglehead, you best start explaining or else." Rika held up her fist and started moving it back and forth.

"Um...well...," Takato said scratching the back of his head, "Ya see..." the vein on Rika's forehead started getting bigger. Renamon saw this and decided to intervene before someone got hurt.

"Rika," Renamon said in her usual tone. Rika turned her death look to her.

"What is it Renamon? Can't you see I'm about to hurt Gogglehead?"

"I can see that, but would you like for me to explain what happed and why you are here?" Renamon asked.

Yes we would Renamon," Henry said stepping in between Takato and Rika.

"Ye...yeah Renamon, please start explaining," Takato said with a hint of worry in his voice, thinking of what Rika was going to do to him.

"OK," Renamon started, "I was walking in the park to visitGuilmonandwegotattackedbyadigimon." Renamon started talking faster at the end in order to keep Rika unknowing about Guilmon and her, but it didn't work.

"Wait, what was that?" Rika asked.

"What was what?"

"The part at the end."

"Guilmon and I got attacked by a digimon."

"And the part before that."

"I went for a walk in the park."

"No, not that, the part after that, but before the digimon attacked you."

"To visit Guilmon," Renamon murmured.

"What was that Renamon?" Rika asked once more becoming agitated.

"You wouldn't understand."

"Try me Renamon."

"I was in the park to visit Guilmon?" Renamon finally said.

"Why were you visiting Guilmon?" Rika asked raising an eyebrow in suspicion.

"I was there to talk to him."

"About what?" Rika inquired.

"Um, guys," Takato butted in, "Can we discuss this later. We need to be looking for Guilmon."
