Shame, only two people have voted on my poll. And both on different things making a tie. Please visit my profile and click on the link at the top, it's important to me knowing what would be best to continue with!

Hope you like this chapter, and sorry it's a bit later than normal.

'Way to go Ken!' I cheered happily as he ran up with a grin. They'd done it! Ken's team had won the finals. He laughed and pulled me into a hug spinning me round. He was just as happy as me, probably more. Wormmon and Lalamon were hidden in my bag, much to Wormmon's relief because he said Ken's sports bag stunk.

'Championship game, 8:0.' He exclaimed as he set me down gently. I nodded riding both my thrill and his excitement. I rested my head on his shoulder content for us to be together in this happy moment, such a rare thing for us it seemed.

'Ken that was so cool! That tackle you did in the second half, it was magic!' Davis said running up. Obviously he was the best person to relate and provide feedback on a football match with the possible exception of Tai. The boys exchanged high fives with the air of really old close friends, which they were of course.

'That was a good game Ken. You earned that trophy.' Tai agreed staying a bit further back with Matt, TK and Kari. Yolei and Cody walked forwards as soon as Davis let them, eager to add their own cheers to the mix.

'Keeping trophy for your school cabinet, again. Nice work.' Yolei added her congratulations before sliding up to talk to Davis; she seemed to be doing that a lot lately. Cody just gave Ken a nodded standing next to me.

'Ichijouji are you going to join us for the party?' One of Ken's teammates asked coming up. Ken frowned thinking about it.

'Ah, I'm not sure. I've got an interview with Tamachi TV and I don't know how long that will take. I've also been invited to a lecture at Tamachi Technical Development at 4 so I might have to rush straight there.' Ken admitted after considering.

'You've got a meeting with Odaiba Radio at three as well.' I reminded him.

'Last minute cancellation, the person they were going to send is sick.' Ken told me. I nodded frowning, that meeting had been important to spreading Ken's reputation among the adults of Odaiba, and the interviewer worked with Matt's dad. Ken's teammate looked at me in surprise. I realised that Ken had never actually introduced me to the team yet, though he said he'd planned to at the next team party he could attend.

'I don't believe we've met. Max Candle, I'm captain when Ken's busy.' He introduced himself politely. He looked like TK but had Davis boyish grin. If the personality was a mix as well then that could be scary.

'Sakura Tenshi, I'm a old friend of Ken's.' I replied smiling. I didn't know whether Ken would want to play down our relationship rather than let the press get wind of it so I left it open for him.

'Sakura's my girlfriend actually. So stop looking guys!' Ken noted calling warning to the rest of the team. A couple of them blushed but I just chuckled and held Ken's hand. I jumped startled as Cody's phone rang and gave him a look as he picked it up. It wasn't often someone used cell phones in this group; we tended to stick with email for obvious reasons.

'Mum… Ken won…no, he's busy…really…yeah that's be great…sure I'll them…thanks.' Cody hung up a slightly stunned look on his face.

'What was that about?' I asked curious. Cody rarely showed his surprised having learned early on with his training and dad that you needed to at least look in control of the situation to have any chance of improving your position.

'Mum said we can stay at Ken's overnight, she's arranged it with Mrs Ichijouji.' Cody explained. Ken and me exchanged a look. A lot was said with it but still we decided to speak out loud for the others benefit.

'Sounds like fun, but I guess you'll be stuck with me at the interview and lecture.' Ken apologised laughing slightly.

'I think we can handle it.' I noted dryly. Ken had a smile I recognised all to well.

'Is that a challenge I hear angel?' He asked still holding that smirk. The spark in his eyes reassured me that this was the good Ken, just in a playful mood.

'More like I promise I believe.' I countered instantly. The banter was familiar, comfortable and easy to slip into. Cody hid a laugh as he pointed out our cab was here. After a quick round of goodbyes and promising to tell the others if anything happened we headed off to Tamachi TV. They were going to plan with Izzy and the others as to which areas needed the most repairs, so we could begin rebuilding the digital world.

'So Ken, you will be focusing on that camera there during the program. The light will turn yellow to warn you it's going to switch and then green when it's on. The other camera that will be used is that one, which focuses on John. Listen to the cameraman behind this one for your cues and everything will go smoothly.' The lady who was in charge of organising the camera set up explained as she showed us, well Ken really, round the set. It was a simple set with a sofa and armchair round a coffee table. Ken said that the interview was for a news story on his latest invention of a dry food storage container, which could dehydrate the food itself. He called it the Hydration Lunch box but admitted that the name was more for the invention rather than the retail product.

'Right, is there any particular way you want me to sit or is it just natural?' Ken asked taking it all in. He was a genius; this kind of thing was everyday work to him.

'Natural would be ideal. Here's the list of questions that John will try to ask. I'll call you when it's ten minutes to air for a final run through.' She said handing a piece of paper over. Ken nodded and scanned the paper.

'Okay, we'll be in the waiting room then.' Ken noted finally.

'Right. By the way, your friends will get to watch from that room there with the overseer. They will be able to see and hear perfectly including the camera footage.' She added pointing to a doorway hidden among the wall. It had a mirror next to it but I figured it was actually a window. I was glad we would be able to watch, Mrs Ichijouji had told me that some of the smaller or more strict studios said only the manager could go in leaving her and her husband in the entrance lobby to wait.

'That would be perfect, thank you.' Ken replied smiling. Then he turned to Cody and me. 'The waiting room is this way, Sakura would you help me go over these?' He asked moving the paper.

'Sure, I don't know how much help I'll be though.' I admitted laughing as we followed him. He gave me a smile that said, always tonnes.

'You'll be a big help. It so much better when you have someone to read the questions out to you.' He noted knocking on a door. When there was no response he opened it.

The waiting room was a nice spacious room with cream sofa's and a glass coffee table in the centre. Along one wall was a kitchen area for people to make tea or coffee. Ken said it was free for guests to use but none of us were thirsty. Ken passed me the sheet of questions and sat across from me. Cody took his usual place next to me and read them over my shoulder. 'Okay. Now you just read them in a logical order. The first one is the opening and the last is how the show is supposed to end. That's just a guide line of what they want to address in the interview so it won't be exactly the same.' Ken instructed. I nodded and looked at the first line.

'Hello and welcome to Today's Tamachi with your host, Sakura.' That got a chuckle out of Cody and Ken had to hold back one. 'Today we have a very famous guest. He's renowned across many fields particularly science and sports. He just led his team to victory in the junior football finals and has released his latest work on Computer Robotics. Ladies and Gentlemen, the boy wonder, Ken Ichijouji.' I said how I thought a presenter would say it. Ken smiled and took a breath.

'Hey Sakura, it's good to be on the show. Though I think your singing my praises a bit much.' He said clearly in his professional mode. To my surprise it was easy to forget that I was only helping Ken out. Being a presenter, even if it was pretend, it was fun and natural.

'I highly doubt that Ken. You've got several achievements to your name including winning the national computer contest, balancing the world's biggest checkbook, being a champion in jujitsu as well as your formidable football skills. Of course we're here to talk about your current achievement, your latest invention.'

'Ah yes, the Hydration Lunchbox.'

'That's right. Now the Hydration Lunchbox is a rather special piece of equipment. Would you care to explain why?'

'Well basically the unit is the same size as your normal lunchbox that's used by hundreds of children just in the city. The beauty of the device is that you can fit more food inside because it stores dry food, which is a lot smaller than fully hydrated food.'

'Surely dry food isn't that appetising, and wouldn't your normal lunchbox's be able to carry it as well?'

'Your right, but that's where the Hydration Lunchbox differs. You see inside the box is a small water tank. You fill it with water, carry it to school or work, and then you can clip the dry food packets onto the tank using the connectors along side. Then you press a button on the tank and in about a minute you have normal food ready to eat.'

'I see, but dry food isn't something I've noticed on the shelves when I go shopping.'

'No, it's typically sold at camping equipment retailers but many supermarkets sell camping gear including dry food. Also if this catches on they will stock more and more of the dry food.'

'Of course, so in a away your creating business for other industries as well with this invention.'

'That's true. Manufacturers of dry food currently sell to a rather narrow market. The Hydration Lunchbox has the potential to widen the market to nearly every family that has a need to carry a meal with them.'

'So the manufactures will gain new business, but what of dry food itself? Why don't we all have it now if it's so sensible on a storage front? Does it have less nutritional value or some chemicals involved in making it?'

'No, the nutritional value stays the same and in fact dry food stays fresh longer as the lack of water slows down the rate of decay. As for chemicals, well you can imagine some are needed to dry out the food but none are actually added to the food in the process. It's a bit like using drying salts on a sheet, easy to remove afterwards and no adverse effects.'

'Right, so what kind of food will you be able to buy using dry food?'

'Well you can get your basic fruits, crisps, pre made sandwiches or bread slices, most vegetables, cakes and other sweets. However if you use hot water you can get warm fish, chips, sausages, other meats and various other common foods. As more people start to buy it more options would be come available.'

'You mentioned hot water, now I doubt you use that for your apple so how does that work?'

'Well currently the Hydration Lunchbox will only do cold items over a journey, like that apple you mentioned however you can fill it with hot water if you have access at work and development is going into adding the ability to carry warm water in the box along with the cold.'

'Interesting, now we've all heard about the chemicals in our tap water, will they pose a problem?'

'Absolutely not, as along as the water's drinkable it's fine.'

'Well, that seems to be us finished. Now coming up is Alice's report on our water, in particularly the chemicals that we just mentioned. I'm Sakura Tenshi and from me and the studio, good day.' I finished with a grin. Ken nodded before giving me a high five.

'Wow, that was brilliant.' Cody noted shocked. Ken nodded in agreement.

'Eh, really?' I asked blushing at the praise and feeling really glad I'd done a good job.

'Yes, how did you learn to do that?' Ken demanded. He was obviously stunned, but in a good "wow, my girl's amazing" way. I shrugged honestly having no idea. Judging from what they were saying it was fairly good though.

'So you don't have experience then?' We jumped and turned to see a guy in his late thirties entering the room with a curious expression. I shook my head as Ken stood up and stepped so he was next to me.

'Ah, guys this is John Laws. He's the host of Tamachi Today and the guy who's going to be interviewing me.' Ken introduced us nodding to John.

'Hey, I'm Sakura Tenshi and this is Cody Hida.' I said standing up beside Ken as Cody hopped up and moved so he was in front of us.

'A pleasure to meet you, so Sakura, do you plan to go into journalism at all?' John asked inquisitively. I shook my head frowning. Plans for the future, I was in a better position than most people who'd gone through what I had were. Ken grasped my hand and gave it a comforting squeeze.

'No, I don't really have any plans for the future.' I admitted. I just want to get into school I added in my head with a sigh. Yet I found myself wishing I were in a position to be considering a load of different jobs and find what I wanted to do. As it was I would probably be relying on the others for the rest of my life. I didn't mind relying on them but I knew I'd want some measure of independence and a way to give something back.

'Well I think you should consider it, you've got potential. Actually, you could apply for the Youth's News Report. Every Saturday there's a special news program aimed at young people and the host is supposed to be about your age. The current host is leaving soon to go to high school so we need a new presenter. I think you could have a shot.' John told me smiling. I gulped and looked at Ken wanting his thoughts. He had more experience with the field and could easily tell me whether or not this was legit.

'You should ask Mrs Hida first but it could be a good opportunity.' Ken noted knowing what I wanted. I frowned as I thought about it. Given my past it was unlikely for me to get into good schools and get a good job. This could be one of the few chances I got, and it had been fun to interview Ken. I could see myself being a presenter; actually it was the closest thing to an option I had that I liked.

'I guess so, I'd like to try.' I admitted. Ken grinned and nodded as Cody passed me his phone.

'Call her and ask, it doesn't make sense to leave and come back.' He noted reasonably.

'You stay at mine on weekends anyway so it's no hassle for Mum to drop you of here when she goes into town if you get the job.' Ken agreed. Well that was all the finer details of whether it was possible ironed out. I nodded and dialled Mira's number.

'Hello?' She asked when she picked up.

'Mira, it's Sakura. I want to ask you something.' I told her before explaining about the offer. There was silence as she thought about it.

'Hm, if you want to do it I don't see why not. Actually I think it's a good opportunity for you. Tell me how it goes okay.' She said finally.

'Sure. Thanks, Mira. I'll call you when we get back to Ken's.' I promised smiling.

'Okay, love you and Cody.' She told me kindly.

'You too.' I hung up and gave the phone back to Cody still smiling. 'She said yes.' I added encase they hadn't realised. John had a huge grin like he'd won the lottery.

'Okay, well we can go fill out the form while we wait for to be called up.' John suggested pointing at the door.

'Should one of us stay here encase that lady comes looking for Ken?' Cody asked curiously. That was Cody, always looking out for ways to help.

'No, an announcement gets sent down to reception because that's were most people go if they're not looking over lines.' John explained leading the way. It didn't take long to fill out the form. It was rather basic info but there was a slight concern about my address. When I'd explained the situation to John he said to just us my primary guardian's address and put the other in the addition details section. John set they'd have the test set up by the time Ken was finished so I would just go down and do it then.

'Okay you should be informed if you got the job in a few weeks.' John said as we exited the station. I nodded and smiled.

'I hope I do, that was fun.' I admitted. It had been fun. The test was seeing how the person would look and act in front of the camera. I'd sat behind a desk and read a script that they had appearing on a teleprompter as they called it. I'd stumbled a bit because the words were going really fast and it was hard to keep up but John said everyone did their first time. Of course right after that Ken dropped a bombshell. If I got the job it wouldn't belong before people realised we were going out so I'd have to be prepared for that. I didn't mind, but it was something to think about. A part of me wanted everyone to know that he was mine, but the more sensible part was thinking about the trouble it could cause if reporters started looking into my past. It could bring out unwelcome details both personally and with the Digimon.

'I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yours was the best I've seen so I think you've got a chance. Plus you look great on camera, not something everyone can say.' John noted laughing. I blushed as Ken made a comment about that being everywhere, which Cody agreed with. There was a honk and we looked up to see a limo pulling up.

'Important event?' I noted surprised as looked at Ken. The lecture didn't seem like the normal limo event.

'Not so much, but a lot of important people are going so it's best to take the limo.' He explained calmly as the driver stepped out. That made sense I reasoned waiting. I'd been with Ken in a Limo once before so I knew what to expect as Ken always used the same company and driver when possible.

'Mr Ichijouji, Miss Tenshi, Mr Hida.' He greeted tipping his hat. Ken nodded in confirmation gesturing us forward though it was hardly necessary. I went and sat next to Ken while Cody sat opposite us.

'Nice, Yolei would flip.' Cody noted looking at the plush seats. I held back a laugh as Ken nodded, biting his lip to refrain from laughing himself. Ken had explained it was better to get into the mindset of being at a posh event from the second you entered the limo and I strived to do my best not to embarrass him if I could. The limo pulled away and I waved back at John though he probably couldn't see it with the tinted windows. I think he knew though cause he smiled as well.

Will Sakura get the job? How will the Digidestined help the Digital World? Find out, on the next, The Possibility of Kindness.

Oh, please review! Thank you!
