Chapter Nineteen: The Cooking Competition

We walk down the road of the destroyed village. "This is nothing like you said it would be." I coughed the sand out of my mouth. We walked along, I using Takuya as and shield to block all the sand. We saw a digimon surrounded by many other digimon crying. "Are you alright?" I asked when the sand disappeared.

"Oh no, our village has been raided by a giant digimon. He said something about the three moons making him hunger, so my husband made him a dish of our finest hamburger." The Burgermon explained.

"Now I'm hungry." Said Takuya.

"He liked them so much he took my husband to his mansion to cook for him." Explained the mama Burgermon.

"Wow." Said Tommy.

"That's really messed up." Koji said.

"Yeah, now how are we suppose to get our burgers." Complained J.P

"I think you don't understand the situation." I said to J.P.

"Daddy is coming back isn't he, Mama?" The flying chicken asked.

"Please young man can't you and you're young friends be able to help find my husband?" asked the Burgermon.

"Uhh…I suppose but I won't even know where to begin looking." Admitted Takuya.

"The monster will bring daddy back if we make a badder burger." Said a flying guy.

"He means a better burger, but I'm afraid that's impossible. He makes the best burger ever." The Burgermon said.

"The monster said we have to have the better burger ready before he moves three times." Said a flying chick.

"No silly he said before the three moons align." Said another.

"That's soon."

"Then it's up to us." Zoe said. "Come on we all scruff enough burger, we can at least make something that looks right." Said Zoe. "When the Chamelemon take it to the mansion we'll follow them." Zoe said.

"Nice plan except I've never cooked before." Said Koji.

"Me too" said Takuya.

"I've seen my mother cook before." Tommy said.

"I cooked before." I stated and Koji looked sick.

"Hey I was five. I had years to make up for that." I shouted at Koji.

"I think this is going to be a good experience for us" Said Zoe.

"Anything you say." Said J.P

We went to the kitchen and started cooking. Takuya went around looking for all kinds of meat and chanting meat. I sweat drop and went to look for some chicken meat I don't get how Takuya is skinny. I fried the chicken and until it was crunchy then I added some black pepper on the chicken. I took some onion and peel the skin off then started chopping it. I wipe my tears off. I took some pickles and cut two small slices. I put some mayonnaises into a container and added the onion, I added some garlic and celery salt and mixed it together. I took some cheddar cheese and place it on the chicken. I took a knife and wipe the sauce on the inside of each bun. I place some lettuce on the bottom bun then the chicken then the cheese and the top bun. I added some more salt and pepper for taste and a secret sauce. I made a tray more. "Done" I said.

We waited to see which one Bokomon would choose. Bokomon tasted J.P and was surprise it was edible. Neemon stuffed down some of Zoe. Bokomon ate mine and Neemon came to eat it too. "This is a chicken burger with pickles, cheese, lettuce and my special sauce. They started stuffing down my burgers. "Enough I need these as bait." I said.

Koji and Takuya started describing their burgers.

"Koji, Takuya that isn't h-"Bokomon and Neemon went sick,

"Disgusting." they said.

"Told you." I sighed.

Koji and Takuya each took a bite of their burger then fed it to each other. They too went sick. Bokomon and Neemon went to try Tommy's burger. "Is something wrong?" Tommy asked as Neemon flip through the burger.

"No it just we need something edible after that one and Sakura isn't letting us eat hers' anymore." Bokomon informed.

"Would you like some fresh tea?" asked Burgermon. Tommy nodded and we took a break.

I watch Koji and Takuya run around making another batch of burgers trying to see whose better. I sweat drop as Takuya came back with another all meat burger, octopus legs, salmon meat, squid juice and meat. Koji came back with an all fruit burger, apple, pears, oranges, mango, etc.

"Wait, don't." I said as they for Bokomon and Neemon to eat it. They grew sick. The two went back to cook. I tend to Bokomon and Neemon.

I waved a towel at the two when Takuya and Koji came back. Koji present his all chocolate burger and Takuya showed his all bird burger. I sighed and shook my head, not allowing them to feed it to Bokomon or Neemon. They had enough.

"Then who are we going to feed this to?" Koji asked.

"How about you?" Takuya asked shoving the burger in my face. "No" I scream backing away. "I don't think that's even edible." I said.

"How would you know?" Takuya asked offended.

"Try it yourself." I said. They ate their burgers and ran to the toilet and puked.

"Okay, if you want to be good at cooking then you are going to need a lot of help." I said rolling my sleeves up. "Since when do you know how to cook?" Koji asked.

"Since my mother taught me before she….she…" I felt my face go warm and my vision blurred. I touched my face and felt tears. I didn't know why I was crying.

"Hey are you alright?" Takuya asked. I collapsed on the floor and wipe my tears away but they kept coming back.

"Hey don't cry." Koji said acting like his old self when we were kids. I stood and ran out of the kitchen.

I ran past a forest and saw a mansion. I looked around and found Kazemon, Beetlemon and Kumamon slide evolve into their beast and was facing Petaldramon. I beast spirit evolved and join the battle.

"Let's clean up the yard. Hurricane Gale." Zephrymon said.

"Leaf Cyclone" Petaldramon said hitting me and MetalKabuterinmon.

"Frozen arrowhead." Korikakumon said and grabbed the neck of Petaldramon.

"Roses Rapier" I said and slashed and X of the forehead of Petaldramon.

"Sakura!" They yelled.

"Hi" I greeted.

MetalKabuterinmon was helping Korkakumon pull Petaldramon down. "Where my burger?" Petaldramon asked. "Right here." The little birds said and throwing one into the mouth of Petaldramon. "There is more in the kitchen." Burgermon said throwing one into the mouth of Petaldramon. Petaldramon went to eat in the kitchen. "Electron Cannon" said MetalKabuterimon firing at the cave on top of mansion. "Rosen Blood." I said and left a rose bud that bloom open then flew away.

"Thank you for saving us." Said the chick and the Burgermon. The wife fainted again.

"No problem."

"For you're bravery we are going to name the new burger, Little Tommy" said Burgermon. We laughed.

"Come to think of it where the boys?" Zoe asked.

"In the kitchen" I said. We walked in to see the boys puzzled.

"Some heroes you are. You didn't even notice us missing." Zoe said.

"Only Sakura did." J.P said placing his arm around me. Koji and Takuya fumed and I quickly jumped out of J.P's hold.

"Sakura… are you—" Koji started but I cut him off.

"What are you talking about?" I asked pretending nothing ever happened.
