Digimon Tamers Digital Short: Nami Needs A Date!
[Matsuki Bakery]
The girls arrived at the bakery just during afternoon rush hour. They had to wait twenty minutes before things died down before managing to whisk the Matsuki bros and their digimon partners away to the back of the shop. Hiromi explained the situation to Takato and Isamu who stood there dressed in their aprons and hairnets listening quietly; meanwhile Guilmon and Ghidomon ate pastries and chatted with the others. When Hiromi finished, the young leader of the Tamers looked at her dumbfounded along with Isamu before he replied.
"So you're saying this card will make a digimon human?" Takato asked looking at the card in his hand, "And you want to use it on either Guilmon or Ghidomon…so they can pretend to be Nami's boyfriend…so she can prove she has one… seems reasonable enough I guess." The brown haired teen said in a tone the implied he wasn't truly sure.
"Only on digimon who have biomerged with their partners. Shibumi said it's because the card uses the residual DNA that's inside our digimon as a template. That narrows it down to just Guilmon, Ghidomon, Terriermon, and Cyberdramon. Terriermon and Cyberdramon, for obvious reasons wouldn't work. Besides, Nami likes them. She'd would be more comfortable if it was one of them accompanying her. Please? Will you help out?" Hiromi pleaded looking to him and Isamu.
"Well…doesn't that really depend on those two?" Isamu asked, "You said Nami wanted to ask them which one is willing to go on this date right?" The long, blue haired teen said, looking over at the two brothers who had been listening in.
Guilmon and Ghidomon sat next to Nami, all three munching on fresh baked bread, when Guilmon looked over to reply.
"Well I don't mind helping out, and neither does Ghidomon. Nami's our friend of course. We'll gladly help out." The crimson digimon cheerily replied.
Ghidomon, who still had a mouth full of bread nodded his head eagerly as well, "Ouf, coorse! Nhamies ouf phrend!", he said before swallowing with a massive gulp and belch, "Oops, sorry…"
"Real smooth there Ghidomon." Rika said teasing, scratching the back of the blue winged version of Guilmon's ear.
Nami just finished her loaf of sweet bread with her own loud belch, and a meow of happiness, grabbed both digital brothers by the neck, bringing them into a tight embrace.
"OOOHHH! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You don't know what this means to me! I promise I'll defiantly make it up to you guys for helping me out!" she purred, squeezing the two tighter, before releasing her grasp on them, "So, who is going to be my handsome date hmmm?" She asked looking to the two who were busy inhaling much needed oxygen after being deprived of it.
"Hmmph, how do you even know they will be handsome?" Rika said in a somewhat sarcastic tone.
"What?" Isamu said, taking offense to the statement.
"Rika!" Renamon called out chiding her.
"What? I'm just saying, did Shibumi factor that into this algorithm? What if the card turns them into someone ugly looking? Do you really want to bring someone like that on date?" The redhead asked.
"Rika come on! How can you even ask something like that? Remember the card uses the DNA of the Tamers." Hiromi said, walking up behind Rika placing her hands upon the teen's shoulders, "They'll be basically older versions of Takato and Isamu, are you saying these two are ugly?"
Rika looked over at the Matsuki brothers without saying a word, the slight flush upon her cheeks said it all. Takato and Isamu's own cheeks reddened as they both looked away with fake coughs. Hiromi just giggled shaking Rika playfully.
"I thought so. Ok! So who is it going to be? I want to see this card in action!" Hiromi said excitedly, running over taking the card from Takato.
"Y-yeah, enough stalling." Rika said, "Which one of you digimon is going to be the lucky man?"
The digital brothers looked to the others then at one another for a moment. The two mimicked each other's movements, almost like they were both looking at a mirror deep in thought. Rika let out a short laugh, Wonder Twins indeed. Finally after a moment they mumbled between one another. Ghidomon pointed to himself, which Guilmon happily nodded back in agreement.
"Well…"Ghidomon started, "It's too bad we both can't help Nami, but if it's going to be one of us, then I'll do it." The blue dragon said with a smile.
"Are you sure about this Ghidomon?" Isamu asked feeling a bit worried.
"Yeah, don't worry Isamu, it will be perfectly fine." Ghidomon answered, reassuring his partner.
Nami hugged Ghidomon tightly in appreciation while Isamu reached in his back pocket producing his blue and gray D-Arc. Hiromi handed him the orange card, which he palmed for a second, then he looked over to Ghidomon.
"Are you ready boy?" The young teen asked Ghidomon who nodded back letting him know he was, "Ok then…here goes…"
Isamu swiped the card through his D-Arc, the screen glowing bright orange. An amber beam shot forth into the sky, at which at the same time another shot downward, striking Ghidomon. Nami, thankfully with her quick reflexes, leapt away just in time as Ghidomon's body became awash with orange light. She and the others had to cover their eyes as the light intensified. When it died away they looked on in complete awe.
There standing before them stood Ghidomon, but no longer in his dragon form, but instead that of a young man who appeared to be in his mid twenties. Ghidomon's human form had a strong muscular build with a light tan complexion. His eyes remained the same emerald green; and his hair was blue as his original scaly form, reaching the middle of his back.
Everyone was at a loss for words, not just at the fact that the card worked, but indeed how much Ghidomon now resembled Isamu, though older. Also Ghidomon stood there stark naked, which had the Tamers looking away save for Hiromi who kept gawking with a slight smile upon her face.
"Wow…I mean just wow Ghidomon…look at you." Hiromi said still smiling, "Nami, I know you're getting more than you wanted, but what do you think?" the teen in glasses asked, looking over to her partner.
"He's perfect! Such a hunk!" Nami said, looking over at Ghidomon slightly fawning over him, "Now Shigeo will defiantly leave me alone now once he sees this beefcake on my arm!" Nami meowed out, locking her arm with Ghidomon, who still hadn't let what happen to him fully sink in.
"Yeah, well before you show him off, perhaps you should put some clothes on him." Rika said, her cheeks red while still trying not to look in Ghidomon's direction.
Isamu removed his apron and handed it to his partner.
"Rika's right. Here put this on for now. Maybe we can find something of dad's that you can wear upstairs." The teen said.
Ghidomon politely took the apron and placed it on, after he did everyone else in relief felt a little comftable to look his way.
"That's much better. You look silly Ghidomon, but that's better than running around in your birthday suit." Takato said jokenly.
"But I'm always naked." Ghidomon replied back, getting a few sighs and groans his direction.
"That's when you were a digimon, now you're a human. There's a lot we are going to have to teach you before you go out with Nami tomorrow." Isamu anwered.
"Being a human doesn't seem like it's too hard. It's just like being a digimon, but more fun right?" The young man asked.
"Well sorta, but there are things you'll need to say and do. And NOT say and do boy. But don't worry it shouldn't be too hard. You're just going to go hang out, eat and talk." Isamu answered back.
"Yeah something like that, and also act all lovely-dovey with Nami." Rika added.
"Lovely-dovey?" Ghidomon said, feeling more confused now.
"Oh man, this is going to be tough." Takato said.
"Yeah, maybe it's not too late for Nami to back out…" Rika said in agreement.
Just then at that moment, Yoshie, Taktao and Isamu's mother came out back looking for the brothers.
"Takato, Isamu! Hurry up, we need you, it's starting to get…." Mrs. Matsuki said, only to stop in her sentence as she looked over at the young man before her; who clearly had only an apron on.
"Now mom, wait, before you freak out…" Takato tried say while slowly taking a few steps to his mother.
"AAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEE! PERVERT!" Yoshie yelled out, reaching for the nearest object trying to strike at Ghidomon.
Takehiro rushed to the back of the shop after hearing his wife scream, when he arrived, he didn't know exactly what to make of the sight before him. Takato and Isamu were busy hold Yoshie at bay who had a broom trying to swat at a man he never seen before. Who also appeared to be naked, save for the apron he recognized as one of his own.
"Uh…Am I missing something here?" Takehiro said.
