after long battling, devileomon was defeated! the seven kids got together and started walking around. it became dark and Jean decided to set up camp in a meadow. they were all getting ready to sleep. luckily, some had sleeping bags. the moon was full and somehow Inumi was glowing. Siren couldn't sleep, Dinmon was out like a light. Siren heard soft female singing. Siren followed the voice till he came to the lake. He saw a mermaid with a harp singing. She stared at him, then jumped in the water. A meteor shower was occuring, Siren sat alone watching it. The meteors then exploded and a star had fallen in the lake.
"Yay! Hahaha, evil will not triumph this day. Then again, who knows if that devil was evil? But more thought provoking, who cares?"
"Ah yes, walking when we were already close to a source of water. Why not build a safe shelter when you can explore and likely get yourself killed. Perfectly logical!"
"Uh, why a meadow? Do you prefer to massacre the environment and live in a fly zone? Why not just take a nice batch of forest?"
While Siren was off having fun in the water with the mermaids, Loki made a safe fire ring and a small fire to keep bears away. "Just don't want to get eaten in my sleep. So I suppose i'll take first watch?"
"Ok, i'm taking bets. Who wants to bet that this is a good thing. If you think a star falling in a lake in a place where crazy monsters attack, then please, place your money now. I am taking 2-1 odds that this is a bad thing."
Jean grinned. She had remained quiet (for once...) for the entire time, just watching. It was time for a small burst.
"'EY! I'm Jean Karo, and this is my annoying pet Digi thingamabobber," she said, indicating Koromon carelessly. "He's annoying, but anyway, I like sports and stuff like that. The USA is the land I call my home!" She quickly refrained from bursting out into song, as it might scare them. "And anyways, HULLO! Nice fight there, dude who's hair keeps changing." She bopped Koromon on the head happily and started to hum while surveying the scene.
It wasn't until then that she noticed that everyone was staring at her oddly.
"Hey, what'd I do?" she asks, confused. Koromon rolled his eyes (one of the few parts he has to his micro body..)
"They think you're a freak," he explained. Jean suddenly jumped up and punched the air.
"COOL!"
"Speak for yourself, small, talking animal. I don't think she's a freak. I would, except there's the small problem that this whole world doesn't make sence, so the average for 'freak' lowers. I think she is just odd."
"Anyway, my name is Loki Arexon. I am from America, but I came here from France where I was vacationing. I don't know what's going on, and I have the continuing feeling that none of this is real. Still, might as well play along for now," he says shrugging.
"So, uh, how do we leave?"
Koromon glared at Loki and opened his mouth to say something, but Jean had already started talking.
"Nice, very nice, nice nice to meetcha!" She grinned and stuck out her hand. "Sorry about him, he's just a little...well...yeah. I think this is real. Sort of. Maybe...kind of... Well, not really. It could be a dream. But then why are the trees real? I should know, I ran right into one."
Koromon looked up at her and blinked. "Sometimes I wonder about her," he said.
"Oh shut it, you." Once again, she bopped him on the head and picked him up by his ears. "So how'd you get here? Some little plastic-device-trinket thingy? Mine popped out of my math book."
"Oh? I was surfing the net, and then I noticed this palm pilot thing in my pocket. Next thing I know i'm falling into a small lake," he says, shrugging. "Oh well, not really surprised. I get to all sorts of odd places... I once went to Brazil by accident. I had been evading this group of evil flamingos, and walked into a brief case by mistake. Next thing I know, i'm flying out of a plane and land in the jungle. It wouldn't have been that bad, except the jungle monkeys wanted to have a jungle battle. Ends up they meant in some board game named Risk. Eventually I got back of course, but not without losing a small naval base in Tanzania, which is a whole nother story all together."
"Well, I was peacefully doing my project when some light came off my computer and... gragged me here," said Hikaru, "Oh, sorry. I forgot. I'm Hikaru, from Canada... Along the way here, I got this thingy."
"You keep changing the subject!" exclamed Seikimon. Hikaru showed a strange silver colored device.
Siren had no clue of what happened in space but he decided to go back to the clearing in the wooded area. Everyone was awake,talking around the fire. Siren sat in between jean and hikaru. Dinmon was awake too and he jumped on Siren and just went with the flow. Siren introduced himself.
"Hi, I'm Siren, I travel a lot around the world so much, I really dont know where I'm from. So, you got this plus sign shaped TV thingy too? Mine matches my hair! But this colour is getting annoying...pink. Hey did you guys see what happened during the battle? Nayrumon turned into a whole new digimon thing, I think that's what he called himself. Now he is Dinmon. I wonder if your partners can do that." Siren looked at the other Digimon, Seikimon was the largest of all three and Koromon was the same size as Dinmon. Siren took of his bag from his back and took out uncooked food. He had so much in there that it could feed three whole families. Siren was obviosly always prepared. He placed a wire frame over the fire and then put a pot ontop of that. He placed in small packed of instant meat and then poured in wine and poched the meat with garlic.
"Dinner Time!!!" He took out the seven steaks and placed then on plates. He made noodle soup for the digimon. Each steak was well done (thats how I like them!) and had an assortment of veggies on the side.
Loki shrugs, "Why does everything end in 'mon' around here. I swear we're in Jamaica. Which reminds me of this one time..."
(five minutes later)
"And that's why I have a small company in southeast Asia that makes cheese."
"Wow, someone knows the secret art of item hiding. I didn't know there was a fellow master here."
Jean stared at Loki for a second and burst out laughing.
"Cheese? You've got a cheese factory? Oy, how cool..." She looked over at Hikaru. "I've got one too!" She held up an orange device with blue buttons.
"I really don't know how it happened. First I went on my computer, then HotMail crashed, and then I hit it with my math book... Then it started glowing, and this thing popped out!" she explained, waving the device around. "Koromon says it's a DigiVice. It'd be helpful if he explained what it was, but as with everything, he doesn't know."
She grabbed for something in her pocket, took her hand out, and stared at it. "Hey..it's not there... Where'd that VigiDice thing go?!"
"NYAH!" Koromon yelled from behind her. She whipped around and saw him clutching the device between his ears. "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR PICKING ME UP BY MY EARS!!" He started to bounce off with the device, laughing his little head off.
"HEY! YOU LITTLE DIGI THINGAMABOBBER DUDE!!! COME BACK HERE WITH THAT!" She started chasing him frantically. "WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE A TEAM!! TEAM!"
Loki chuckles, and sits back putting on his headphones for a moment. Getting out a CD player, he sits back and watches the floor show.
Jean scrambled towards him, lunged, and fell face first in the mud.
"..."
Koromon kept bouncing away, laughing happily, not knowing what Jean was going to do to him when she got a hold of him...
"YOU LITTLE! C'MERE, YOU!" Finally, she grabbed him by the ears (they must be pretty long now), grabbed the DigiVice, and threw him into a small pond.
"He's a little bugger, that one. Arg..." She started to squeeze the water out of her hair and clean the mud off of her jeans as Koromon came bouncing back
"What was that for?!" he yelled as loud as he could.
"Um, WELL, you did take my little...trinket thing!"
"How many times do I have to tell you? (sigh) It's a DIGIVICE!"
"I DON'T CARE! Hiss!! Why'd you take it?!"
"Because I can!"
"You're stupid," she practically spat the words out.
"You're...TALL!"
"YOU'RE TINY!"
*squabble squabble, bicker bicker, argue argue, fight fight*
"I put 5 bucks on the monster. I think he can get away before the girl can catch him..."
"LOSER!" he yelled.
"DATA!" she yelled right back.
"MORON!"
"IDIOT!"
"DORK!"
"FREAK!"
Koromon opened his mouth for another insult, but Jean quickly put her foot on his head, pressing down slightly so that he couldn't talk.
"Hey..." he managed to get out.
"It's sad that you're so small, isn't it?" She picked him up and tossed him into the nearby lake. "WET T-SHIRT CONTEST!!" She saw the bewildered and sickened looks on some of their faces and quickly took him out.
"Just kidding, of course, I may be demented but I'm not THAT bad. Besides, Koromon doesn't even have a t-shirt! Oy!" She quickly set him down near a tree to dry off and walked over to Loki.
"Where'd you get that CD player thing from? Dude, was it possible to TAKE stuff? ARG! Man...my backpack...could've packed it... Gaaaar!"
"What, doesn't everyone have a CD player in their pocket?"
"Nope. Well...not me at least. All I have in my pocket is...er..." She started to yank stuff out of her pockets.
"Some string, my DigiVice, a pocket photo album, a candy wrapper, a bottle of pills, - don't mind those - lint, and my sunglasses. That's it, no CD player."
"What's this?" Koromon asks, picking up her sunglasses with his ears.
"PUT. THEM. DOWN."
"Why?"
"Er...because I said so, and I'm your partner!"
"But I'm YOUR partner!"
"...GIVE THEM BACK!"
"NEVER!" Koromon giggled evilly and started to bounce off.
"Here we go again..." She tiredly starts chasing him again, but he, as (ahem) "SMART" (cough) as he is, decided to run right up a tree.
"You really are stupid, aren't you?"
"No?" he guessed, not really sure what to say to that.
"Gar... I climb trees all the time." She jumped up and grabbed a limb, grabbed the tip of his ear, and let go. "I'll be taking those, thanks, and do NOT steal my stuff! God...what a little barbarian, eh?" She quickly put her sunglasses away and looks over at Loki again.
"Sorry about that, dude... Whatcha listenin' to?"
"Uhmm, did you get your, uh, 'digi-vice' before you threw him in the lake? Oh, and to answer your question, i'm listening to Cake."
"Sure did!" She waved it around and stuck it back in her pocket. "And if he takes it again, he'll be sleeping in that lake, if you know what I mean..."
She stopped and thought for a second.
"Who on earth - er, wherever we are - is Cake? Oy, either I'm behind or it's an English group." She started to set up camp (again? And don't ask me where the camp stuff came from, it just...appeared!!) while listening for his answer.
"You-" she started, indicating Koromon. "-are going to be tied down to your pillow thing with THIS!" She waved the string from her pocket around menacingly.
"At the end of the day... oh, what? What am I listening to? I just changed tracks. Now i'm listening to the main theme to Les Mis. You do know about les mis right?"
She blinked and shook her head.
"Not a clue in the world buddy, sorry. Sounds Frenchish to me though. Anyway, I'm bushed. G'night!"
She grabbed Koromon and tied him down to his pillow-sleepingbag thing with her string, crawled into her own bag, and made sure he was secure.
"Good night you devil, you'd better pray that I don't decide to toss you somewhere ELSE in the morning!"
"Huh?" Koromon asked.
"Nevermind, shut up, and good night."
"What? Bush? I have a track from them too..."
"Oh, we going to bed?" he slips his headphones into his pocket. He lays down on a small pillow. "Hmmm, maybe this isn't a dream. After all, when do you sleep while you're asleep. What would you dream? Maybe i'm entering a dream within a dream-or maybe this is when I return to the real world. Who knows? G'nigh," he mutters, and closes his eyes-but does not fall asleep. Instead, he lays awake, listening to the wind echo on the trees, the crickets in the night, and the calling of the night birds. All wind, all sound in the wind.
