The next day Selena is walking through the woods with the rest of the kids that she had been introduced to, the little blonde being TK, the other young kid of the group. Davis and Veemon stuck close to her as she made sure to pass them any flavor cabbages to snack on. Of course, she had found another patch and stocked up on even more, loving the storage capacity of her mom's old backpack. She pointed the patch out to the others and they ate their fill, " Selena, how do you know all this? " Izzy asks her.
" My dad's human spirit partner watches over me all the time and he tells me stories, only I can see Agunimon. " Selena says, though Davis was beginning to be able to hear him.
" Where are your parents anyhow? " Matt asks.
Selena pales as his innocent question takes her back there, back to when the first generation nearly sacrificed themselves for the Digital World. Only her mom's quick thinking had kept them alive but comatose. She hadn't seen Taiki, her twin since that day. Her big brother had been supposed to come but he had broken his leg at Karate practice two days prior. " Not cool, Matt. She and her older brother have been raised by their paternal grandmother. Something tells me we don't want to know. " Tai says. He had promised her brother to look after her and he would.
" They nearly died protecting Digiworld. If not for mama they would have all died, instead they're all in comas. " Selena whimpers.
Matt pales, she had seen what had happened. Davis was quick to go to his best friend. Selena didn't get along well with other girls because she played soccer and refused to wear dresses. Selena was a tom boy through and through, that made it hard for her to make friends with girls their age. Veemon goes over to her as well, the whole Digital World had wondered what had happened to the Legendary Warriors, now they knew, they nearly died to save them all.
" Selena, I don't mean to push, but where are they and whom did they save Digiworld from? " Agumon asks.
" Lady Ophanimon's castle, only D-Tector holders can get to them, cutoff from rest of Digiworld, and they saved Digiworld from the Sailor Scouts, they view Digiworld as threat and they grabbed my twin. Taiki is being raised by our maternal grandparents, the very ones whom abused mama. Scouts want to get into Digiworld and will use Taiki to do it. Well, they'll try, Lady Ophanimon had to cut off his access. Seal him out of Digiworld until we can get him back where he belongs. " Selena answers softly.
Sora felt her heart go out to the little girl, " Selena, how old were you? "
" Been six years since. " Selena murmurs before forging on ahead.
Oh, Selena, he loves you very much. Agunimon murmurs. Davis cocks his head to the side before going after Selena with Veemon. That made the rest of them stop and think, " That's harsh, she saw it all, at two. " Matt murmurs.
" Still, out of everyone here, she's the best equipped to protect herself. " Izzy points out.
" Maybe, but from what her older brother has told me Selena was a real daddy's girl. " Tai says.
Selena can't stop her shivering, she hated going back there, " Sel, answer honestly, you okay? "
" No, but I will be, Dai. " Selena murmurs.
Agunimon sighs Davis was starting to hear him, Takuya was beside himself with worry over his baby girl. He wanted nothing more than to be there for her, but he couldn't, which was why he had demanded his human spirit watch over her. Ranamon was watching over Taiki while Lowëmon was watching the oldest Kanbara sibling. The oldest Kanbara sibling had inherited the Spirits of darkness, though new spirits had been created for the new generation, although they had never had Earth or Metal.
Tai races ahead to catch up with the two younger children, " Taichi, they'll be fine, they have me watching over them after all. "
Tai blinks and his gaze zeroes in on Agunimon, " I thought only Selena could see and hear you? "
" You're a chosen child of fire, just not a warrior. This is why you can see and hear me. Leave them for now. Davis and Veemon can help her better than you can, though her nii-chan would be even better suited for the job. " Agunimon says firmly.
Tai stays the distance he is away from them, he at least wanted to keep them in sight as he didn't want Jaden to kill him. The spirit rolls his blue eyes, Jaden was way too overprotective of his sister. Up ahead the small blue dragon stays near his two humans, yes, Veemon had decided that they were both his partners, as Davis viewed Selena as his closest friend. Selena and Davis stare at the road signs around them even as Matt imitates a tour guide talking about that very fact.
Selena rolls her shoulders and continues on, " Up ahead we can see that there is a Yokomon Village where we can maybe get some water. "
Selena and Davis run ahead with Veemon and the girl pulls out several canteens rushing to fill them. Davis caught on and helps her do this, they needed enough for seventeen individuals, plus, these were special and automatically refilled, when the last was full Selena sighs in relief and tosses one to everyone before pulling Davis away from the well, " It's heating up here. My spirits are reacting. I think the volcano is about to erupt. "
" Well, a black gear crashed somewhere in that vicinity. " Izzy states.
Joe Kido, a kid wearing glasses looks at Selena, " Thank you for the water, Selena. "
" Keep the canteens, they automatically refill. " Selena says and she heads out to find more food that she could stuff into her backpack. Agunimon groans at this, the girl was turning out to be like her mother when it came to socialization. She needed this trip to Digiworld if only so she could make new friends. Selena returns to the village in time to see Meramon coming down the mountain. She curses under her breath.
" Tai, evacuate the Yokomon. " Selena shouts and then her D-Tector is in her left hand, a strand of fractal code around the right, mirroring her father she scans the fractal code around her hand, " Execute… Spirit Evolution! "
Fire surrounds her as her body makes the change from Selena Kanbara to her human spirit of flames, " Pelemon, the Princess of Flames. " Like the other female legendary warriors her armor was similar to that of a bikini, orange in color, her hair being red, and her eyes were still blue.
Izzy's eyes widen, even as he helps to evacuate the Yokomon, " Prodigious, she turned into a digimon. "
" Hence her being a Legendary Warrior, Izzy. " Tentomon says to his partner.
Pelemon makes sure to not use any of her attacks on Meramon whom was complaining about being too hot, she'd only make him stronger, when he knocks her aside she sees Sora in his way and just then her digivice glows, " Biyomon digivolve to… Birdramon. "
Pelemon quickly gets Sora out of the way while Birdramon deals with Meramon. Sora blinks as she looks at the eight year old turned digimon, this was Selena's heritage as a digidestined? Once the fight was over Selena ends her evolution and tears into some any flavor cabbages, she was ravenous. Davis smiles at this, " I guess Spirit Evolution makes her hungry. "
" I'll say. Selena, can I have a cabbage? " Veemon asks her.
She tosses him one and tosses one to Davis as well. Her best friend smiles at her, " Thanks, Selena. "
" Ah, no prob, Davis. " Selena says as she downs some water from her canteen.
Agunimon shakes his head at this, she only acted like her father around Davis. Then again he couldn't really blame her either. Davis was the first kid to ever be nice to her that wasn't Jaden. She'd had to switch schools because the bullying was so bad, which meant Jaden had to switch too just so he could make sure his little sister got to school alright in Odaiba. Of course, Takuya had made damn sure his little girl would be able to defend herself with the use of a lawyer to oversee all of the funds he and Serena had accumulated over the years. Oh, Yuriko had not been thrilled with that. She wanted a gentle granddaughter but Selena was too much her father's daughter.
Selena had taken to soccer like fish to water, one reason why she and Davis got along so well, also why she liked Tai too.
