Hey guys! Lunamon810 here! Sorry this chapter is kind of 'short', I didn't no exactly how to make it longer. I'm sorry if this seems 'sudden', but you know, it could happen, unlikely, but could. Right? And really, it's digimon, anything can happen. Don't worry, digimon do come in later.

Matt: Hey guys! Just wanting to say this is one awesome chapter. Really show's how my 'crest of friendship' affected me years ago and stuff.

Amber: Well my crest proves itself...no more information for now there!

Me: Thanks Amb, thanks Mat..

Claimer:

I do own Amber (well not litterly, but you know what I mean). Also, please don't steal my plot! And please don't steal my version of The Crest of Trust, the crest of Trust is used by other people, but I have certain things about this one. It doesn't matter right now, it hasn't came in yet though. There was a bit of confusion about it though.

Shy Amber, irritated Matt, and their hopeful dad emerged into the kitchen. Matt sat down at his usual seat, and their dad got to cooking. Amber just stood, leaning against the wall, not knowing where to sit. After a moment, their dad realized so.

"You can sit in the seat left to Matt, Amber."He said smiling.

"But dad that's-was T.K.'s seat."Matt said.

"Matt, do you not think that T.K. wouldn't want us to let someone else sit in his chair?"Their dad said.

Matt stood up and walked next to his dad where Amber wouldn't here.

"Your just trying to replace T.K. With Amber."He said.

"I am not."He replied."I am trying to give someone to you that you can be with your own age and feel family love."

"I don't need that."Matt said.

"I didn't say you needed it."

Matt sighed in defeat and sat down. "Go ahead, sit down Amber."

"I-I can sit over there if you'd-"

"It's ok, just sit down."Matt said.

Amber quitely sat down. She stared at the table, avoiding Matt's gaze. Soon diner was ready.

"Thank you."Amber said quitely.

For long minutes the family ate in silence. Amber didn't mind the fact the meal was partically burnt, it was more than she could get at the orphanage. She jumped when they heard what sounded like a gun shot. She could see a red glow on the walls. She slowly turned to look at the window behind her over her shoulder. The apartment building across the street was on fire. She began to seem what was hyperventlating, although she wasn't actually. She fully turned around and backed up to the table, fear in her eyes. She gripped the table. Matt stood up and rushed beside her.

"It's ok Amber, we're safe over here, it's happened before."He confirmed, a big ergent-sounding.

Their dad started calling the police as Amber's face got paler and paler. She remembered once her parents passed, she moved to her aunts...her aunts house burnt down. Her aunt died with it, with a lot of Amber's belongings. Her stomach hurt like crazy as she closed her eyes and took deep breaths, trying to calm herself. She felt Matt's gloved hand grab her wrist and he started leading her to the living room. The two both sat on the couch, Matt still holding her hand.

"Amber, it's ok."Matt repeated.

"A-aunt Al-Allison."Amber managed."I-I moved in w-with A-Aunt Allison after mom and dad got...shot. Her house...b-burnt down, killing her with it."

Matt realized what was going on, why she was so tramatized.

"It's ok, it's across the street, and we can get out of hear easily if need-be."Matt said.

"W-what if whoever sat it on fire comes here and sets the bottom of the building on fire? We can't get out that way!"Amber said.

"We don't know someone sat it on fire, a candle could have got knocked over, someone could have dropped their lighter or something..."Matt said searching for more possibilities to replace someone setting it on fire.

"This keeps happening. I can't have any one around me. Mom and dad, Aunt Allison..."

"Amber its going to be ok, I promise."Matt said.

Amber dryly swallowed and nodded. Matt rushed to the kitchen and got her some water. He returned and handed it to her. She weakly smiled at him as thanks and slowly took a sip, still taking deep breaths and occasionaly closing her eyes if the flame got big. She stared at the edge of the window she could see from the kitchen. Matt bit his lip, trying to think of a reasonable distraction.

"Um...wanna watch tv?"Matt asked.

Amber shook her head.

"Wanna...um..."Matt said, his eyes hurridly exaiming the room.

There was a loud cracking sound across the street as bricks gave and fell off the building next door. Matt felt Amber tense and tightened his grasp around her wrist.

"It's ok."He repeated."Your going to be ok."

In the distance fire truck, ambulence, and police sirens were heard. Matt nervously grinned.

"See? Their about to be here to put out the fire."Matt said.

Their dad rushed into the living room.

"You ok Amber?"He asked the very pale Amber.

"Mmm Hmm."Amber said, mouth closed.

"I think she's gonna be ok."Matt said.

Soon the sirens were so close they had to be across the street. Amber heard the spray of water hoses, so she simily stood up and carefully walked to the kitchen and watched the water douse the fire consuming the building. Soon a quarter of it was out. The bad news was it had taken almost the entire bulding captive. The good news was it was coming out semi-easy.

Amber nervously nodded watching the fire go out little bit by little bit. The red fire was so bright, and so was the blue at the very bottom of all the flame. She'd never loved the clear color of water more though. Clear was the best color in the world at that very moment. Matt and his dad, along with about a hundred other people would agree. Matt and 'their' dad watched over Amber's shoulders.

"Well it's going out easy."His dad said.

He saw his camera crew truck drive up.

"Uh...I'll be right back!"He said and dashed out the door.

"Where's he-"

"His camera crew is down there."He said.

Amber recalled their dad mentioning his job."Oh...so wait...he's gonna be down there!"

"Don't worry...he's a professional! Uh...kinda."Matt said, trying to be comperting and truthful at the same time.

"Er...sure."Amber said with a nervous and worried half smile.

This was not the first day she had expected...at all. Quite tramatizing...and scary...and adrenelene rushing. She tried to focus on lyrics of her favorite songs.

"You don't know what we can find...why don't you come with me a little while, on a magic carpet ride."She sang softly.

Matt remembered that being one of Mimi's favorite songs, so he smiled. Amber finally peeled her eyes away from the window.

"Well this was...quite a intresting first day with my 'new family'."She said.

Matt nodded. "Not quite expected, was it?"

"Nope."Amber said with a short, nervous laugh.

The two returned to the living room, and turned on the news. The fire was already on.

"Fast."

"Dad's camera crew is live."

"They do news?"

"Started recently."

"Nice."
