Devon P.O.V
"The wind of the Digital World smells pretty sweet." Koji said looking out into the beautiful forest.
I got a sudden rush of curiosity about the unknown human world. "Koji, what is the human world like?"
"What do you mean?" Koji turned to me confused.
"I've been here in the Digi-World longer than I can remember. I don't even think I've been to the human world before." I shrugged and looked at him in the eye.
Koji gave me an understanding nod and looked up at the sky. "Well, in the human world there's a lot of pollution, the air is not as clean and there's buildings everywhere, not to mention noisy cars and trains."
"There's noisy trains here as well." I added holding a finger up to my chin and tilted my head to the side thinking.
Koji looked at me and shook his head. "It's not the same."
I straightened my head and held my index finger up. "So in other words, the Digi-World is awesome, and the human world not so awesome!" I smiled brightly in a very childish way at the end of my sentence.
Koji shook his head once again and kept walking with me right on his tail. 'I have a feeling I'm actually gonna like this journey.'
Dakota P.O.V
Takuya, Zoe, Tommy, J.P., Bokomon, Neemon, and I have been walking a few hours since we had decided to stick together as a group. Though I'm not really used to hanging out with these type of people, I'm doing the best I can. We had been walking silently until Bokomon decided to break the silence.
"Uh, I hope you're planning on helping us Mr. Takuya. You carry with you the spirit of Agunimon, one of the 12 Legendary Warriors. You can defeat the evil digimon Cherubimon. Only you have the power to save us! You must help us-!"
"I think you should shut up!" I yelled at the annoying white digimon.
"No I will not shut up." Bokomon replied crossing his arms and looking away from me.
I sent Bokomon a death glare and he immediately hid behind Takuya who sighed at the scene. I turned away pouting and ignored Bokomon, who decided to begin speaking again, and got consumed in my daydream.
Our D-tectors suddenly spoke. "Attention, go to the Forest Terminal immediately."
"What's the Forest Terminal?" Takuya wondered out loud.
"What is the Forest Terminal?" The rest of us asked looking over to Bokomon.
"How am I supposed to find it?" We looked over to Takuya and noticed he was talking to his D-tector. "Hey, answer me!" Takuya began pressing random buttons on his device.
We looked back at Bokomon who began explaining us. "The Forest Terminal is the station deep within the rail of the Forest Kingdom. We just follow the tracks, they'll take us right to it."
"How far do we need to follow them?" Neemon asked.
Bokomon looked through his book. "Well, let's see... It says... It says... No way!" He whined, obviously not having any luck on findidng the information we needed.
"You're full of useless information, aren't you?" I said sighing loudly and dramatically. This sure is gonna be a long night.
Takuya P.O.V
"What made you change your mind about going back home?" I asked J.P casually.
He blushed. "Hm? Well, I realized I didn't have much going on back there anyway and I thought it might be kinda fun to hang out with you guys and get to know y'all a little better."
"Ha! Get to know Zoe you mean!" I smirked.
"Hey, that's not what I meant!" J.P blushed harder.
"Then why are you red, buddy?" I taunted, my smirk growing wider.
"It's hot out and I'm sunburned!" J.P crossed his arms and looked at me, a smirk creeping up his face. "At least I don't have my eyes glued to her the whole time like you with Dakota."
My body stiffened. I turned away blushing. "I hadn't even notice her." I tried sounding smooth, but failed.
"Notice who?" Dakota asked popping out of nowhere.
I turned to look at her and felt my face getting hotter than it was before. I turned away again attempting to hide my blush.
"Are you blushing?" Dakota giggled leaning in, her face closer than expected, as she tried to look at my face.
That caused me to get even redder (if that was even possible). "I-I'm not blushing!"
"Then why are you red, buddy?" J.P taunted me.
Dakota giggled while I sent a quick glare to J.P and picked up my pace staying in the lead for a while. I sure didn't want to make a fool out of myself right now.
Koji P.O.V (Later That Night)
"How do we get to the Forest Terminal?" I asked my childish traveling partner. She kept skipping around humming a tune and completely ignoring me. I sighed in annoyance. 'How in the world did I even get stuck with her?!' I was about to ask her again but I was interrupted by the sound of a train coming closer.
"Get ready." Devon's voice sounded a bit more serious but she still had a childish grin plastered on her face.
She leaned her body forward, looking a if she was about to run, right in front of the train tracks. I sighed again and stood by her side in the same position, knowing it was gonna be practically impossible to change her mind. 'Wait, what are we getting ready for?' As if on cue, I got pulled into a train that was going full speed. Devon lost her footing and was about to fall off the train but I grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her causing her to fall on top of me.
Devon's legs were on either side of my hips and she sustained her upper body with her hands, which were on either side of my head. She looked down at me and grinned. Her hair moved due to the train traveling at full speed and tickled my nose lightly. I blushed and turned away in attempt to hide my red face. Devon poked my cheek and I grabbed her wrist irritated. She chuckled, got up, and entered the train. I sat there dumbfounded for a second. 'What the heck is wrong with me?' I shook it off and walked in the train right behind Devon.
"Hey, who's there?!" The Trailmon asked/yelled.
"Hey Trailmon, it's me, Devon."
"Oooh, famous little Sora, I see. Why didn't you get a ticket, kid?"
"You know I like to sneak like this, it's fun!" Devon replied grinning.
I took a seat as Devon lied down in the seat across from mine.
"Night Wolf-Boy." Devon said, slowly drifting into sleep.
"Goodnight." I mumbled looking out the window.
I held my D-tector in my hand and observed it. "You must go to the Forest Terminal." It said.
"Forest Terminal? Sure, why not?" I said to myself.
Around an hour later we arrived a train station.
"Alright kids, this is your stop." The Trailmon said opening the doors.
"We're at the Forest Terminal?" I asked looking out the window
"No, but I'm not giving you kids a free ride all the way over there."
I got up, stretched a bit, and walked over to my sleeping partner. I stood in front of her and just watched her peacefully sleeping. Her thick, black hair fell to the right side of her face covering her eye. I watched as a smile appeared on her face, still unconscious. 'Even in her sleep she smiles.' I smirked a little at that... I don't know why though. I then realized what I was doing. 'Im a becoming a creep or something?!' I shook my head and focused on what I was here in the first place.
"Hey, Devon, wake up." I said shaking her lightly. She didn't budge. I shook her harder and practically yelled at her but that didn't work either.
"Just carry her out. I have to keep moving." Trailmon said getting impatient.
I carried Devon bridal style and blushed a little as I felt her head hit my chest lightly. I walked out of Trailmon and he left quickly. I was still blushing of the fact I had Devon in my arms. I felt a light poke on my cheek and I looked down to see Devon with her head tilted to the side in confusion and was staring at my face.
"Why are you red? The sun is not even out." She asked innocently. I felt the heat on my cheeks rise.
"It looks cute." Devon giggled.
I raised my eyebrow and looked at her but said nothing. I walked over to a bench and dropped her there, not bothering to try to make her land carefully. In fact, she landed on the bench with a THUD.
"Hey!" Devon whined rubbing her bum.
I sat on the end of the bench, leaned back, and closed my eyes relaxing. "Get some sleep, we need to continue our way to the Forest Terminal tomorrow morning."
I felt a light weight shift onto my thigh. I opened my eyes and saw Devon lying comfortably on the bench with her head on my leg. I looked at her smiling face as she snuggled onto my leg. I didn't even try to push her away or anything of the sort. I actually felt something inside of my chest that I couldn't explain. It was like... Like the urge of protecting her. I shook my head once as I tried to ignore it and closed my eyes, allowing sleep to take over me.
Devon P.O.V (Next Morning)
I opened my eyes and sat up drowsily. I rubbed my eyes adjusting them to my surroundings.
"Finally awake." I looked at the end of the bench and saw Koji looking at the huge tree that was several meters away from us.
"Why didn't you w'ke me up?" I asked yawning.
"I did, but you sleep like a log. I couldn't wake you up."
"Oh." Was all I could say. I sat there silently waiting for the sleepy sensation to ware off completely, and when it did, I heard a female voice getting close.
"That is one humongous tree!" She exclaimed.
"So then, this must be the Forest Terminal, right?" A voice I recognized as the chubby guy from the cave said.
"This is Breezy Village." The white digimon, Bokomon, explained.
"It's called the what now?" The annoying female voice asked.
"Breezy Village, it's not that hard to get." I said catching their attention. I was now standing with my hands on my hips looking over at the group of human kids with a smirk.
"Welcome, tourists. So this isn't it?" Everyone turned to Koji who was leaning against the giant tree; hands on his pockets looking cool.
"You're right, it's not." Bokomon said stating the obvious.
"Hey Koji, what's up?" The annoying blonde asked giggling.
Koji ignored her and pushed himself away from the tree and began walking.
"W-where are you going?" She asked.
"Where I go is my business, thanks for askin'." Koji replied coldly.
I giggled and Koji stopped walking. He turned his head to the side and looked at me from the corner of his eye.
"Are you coming or what, Devon?"
"Coming Wolf-Boy."
I ran to Koji but turned to the girl and stuck my tongue out at her.
"Ugh! So childish and immature!" A different female voice said.
I rolled my eyes and looked over to Koji who was just looking straight at the road. I began laughing quietly and Koji turned to me with a raised eyebrow, obviously confused.
"What's so funny?"
"Oh nothing." I sang and giggled.
Koji rolled his eyes and just kept his eyes on the road ahead. I couldn't help but smile. I know I'm always smiling, but this was different. There was a different feeling inside my chest but I just couldn't pinpoint what it was. I shrugged it off and just walked silently, the smile never leaving my face.
