Digimon V-Tamer 02

Chapter 16: Frozen Heart Part 2

Rika was shocked, staring up at the figure of the being known as IceDevimon,a powerful Champion level Digimon. He had kidnapped her, taken her to... wherever this cold place was. She instinctively reached for her D-Arc... And found nothing 'Where? Where is it?' Rika panicked before her eyes shrunk. She had left it at home

"I've been looking for a strong Tamer. And YOU are the Digimon Queen." IceDevimon smiled

"What are you talking about?" she frowned

"Come with me." he bowed and left through the door. Rika slowly got up, following him as there was nothing in the room for her "I arrived from the Digital World several months ago, where I discovered you Tamers. I remember old tales of how Digimon with a partner grow much stronger than those without." IceDevimon began

"Y-You spent MONTHS here?" Rika asked with a shiver in her voice

"Yes. And then I found you." he said simply. Rika looked at him, standing there proud and almost pompous "And then.. I found you dear Rika." he smiled

"Found... Me?" she shivered

*with Sigma*

"We're getting close, Pied." Sigma spoke, running with DemiDevimon

"Right!" Pied nodded, flying next to him. They hurried, arriving at... A convince store? "...Um. Is this right?" Pied asked

"Yes, the location is right. But maybe we're being tricked." Sigma pondered

*with Rika*

Rika was shivering, feeling the biting cold gnaw into her "What do you mean you found me?" she frowned

"I saw you, the Digimon Queen! The strongest Tamer! And someone with the same cold, frozen heart I have!" IceDevimon called with an insane laugh

"Cold. Frozen. Heart?" Rika whispered as she heard that, clutching over her heart with her hand 'I'm not like that... Am I?'

*with Mari*

"Are we getting close?" Rose asked as she and Mari drove to the location.

"Should be...wait. What the heck?" Mari asked in confusion as she looked at a high class restaurant

"Is this right?" Rose asked.

"Seems to be. I'm calling it in." Mari answered while making note of said restaurant's name 'Might make a good date spot with Henry.'

*With Hideto*

"This doesn't seem right." Hideto frowned as he looked at a map

"Yeah, I don't think this is where someone would keep someone." Melga spoke, pointing to a theater.

"I think a Digimon's messing with us." Warg added

*with Rika*

"What do you say, Rika?" IceDevimon asked

"My heart... Is not cold." she frowned

"What was that?" IceDevimon flinched

"My hearts... Not cold!" she snapped, clearly doubting herself. As if trying to convince herself

"Really? Don't you have ANYONE close? You keep pushing others away." IceDevimon answered "Your mother is an airhead. She doesn't understand you. Your friends? You know they will leave you. Everyone leaves eventually. You don't care about anyone, only POWER."

"Stop. Stop it." Rika covered her ears

"What? Don't tell me you think they'll stay around." he laughed "Stop trying to delude yourself. You know they don't actually care about you. That Henry boy sees you as a fighting obsessed lunatic."

"Shut up." Rika whispered, she didn't want to hear this, they couldn't think that of her.

"Those older kids? You know they don't care about. You know that Takata hates you, just like how you hate her." IceDevimon kept talking, kept taunting her

"Shut up, shut up, SHUTUP!" Rika cried

"And Taichi... He'll leave you. He doesn't care. Just like your father." IceDevimon grinned, making her gasp

*with Neo *

"A dead end." Neo frowned, calling Sigma.

"It's got to be a powerful Digimon. Misdirection techniques." BlackAgumon commented

"I doubt it." Neo commented

*with Rika*

Rika was kneeling on the floor, shaking in fear from IceDevimon's words and the chill of the air. Her eyes almost looked fogged over "Shut up... shut up..."

"Rika. You are the Digimon Queen." he urged, kneeling so they where near eye level "You are the strongest Tamer! You deserve the strongest Digimon!"

"I. Deserve. Strongest." She whispered to herself, believing his words but holding her chest "I have. Renamon."

"What was that?" IceDevimon twitched

"I. Have. Renamon." She answered, repeating herself

He was silent... And started laughing like a madman "That weakling?! She has lost you fight after fight! And she has yet to even Digivolve!"

"She. She's my." Rika whispered, trying to get the words out.

"Come now Rika, remember." IceDevimon hissed "All that matters is POWER, right?" He spat her words right back at her. That was who she was. Who she's always been. The Digimon Queen, dominating everyone before her. Mercilessly ending all opponents

'I was such a bitch!' She thought

*With Taichi*

Taichi frowned as he stood in the middle of the streets. He was looking up at the top of a building, surrounded by fog and missed. It was a radio station "Digital Fog." Taichi frowned

"Meaning she's in there somewhere." Zero agreed

"The Digital Fog must be messing with the radio station, hence the messed up phone tracker." Renamon frowned

"It'll have to be here then. Somewhere close that the Digimon could mess with us." Taichi thought

"Taichi!" Takata waves as she ran towards him

"What's she doing here?" Rena asked

"I asked her here, to help." Taichi answered "Taichi texted me. Told me that Rika was in trouble."

"I...Thank you." Rena answered

"We find Rika?" Gail asked

"Yeah." Takata nodded

"Not without me." Henry smiled as he arrived

"Henry? You're here too?" Rena asked

"Yeah. I checked out all the locations on the Internet. Came to the same conclusion you did, Renamon." he nodded

"Rena." she corrected

"... Pardon?" he blinked

"I do not call you 'human', do I? Rena is a name Rika, my partner, gave to me and I ask that you use it." she said simply but with a tone that said the conversation was final while still being polite

"Oh, sorry, 'Rena'." Takata apologised

"Yeah." Henry nodded

"It does not matter. We must hurry." Rena frowned, hugging Rika's D-Arc tight

*with Rika*

Rika's eyes were fading, she was falling for IceDevimon's words...the words she didn't WANT to hear 'I'm a monster.' she thought 'A cold hearted devil.'

"All you need is a strong Digimon, I can be that Digimon." He answered

"Strongest... Digimon...?" she asked, her voice cold. Almost lifeless

"That's right. Become my tamer and we'll be the STRONGEST together!" IceDevimon answered

"... No... Don't want... To be a devil..." she whispered, tears falling from her hollow eyes

"Oh?" he asked as he knelt down and wrapped his arms and wings around her, a mocking gesture pretending to show offection. A mockery of love. He stretched his long creepy tongue out, lapping tears from her eyes and he laughed "So you need proof of my power?"

"N-No." She winced as she looked on.

He stood tall and spread his arms wide, the lights turning on... Revealing a horrifying sight

Digimon.

Dozens, maybe up to a hundred Digimon.
All frozen in ice turned into icicles by his power.

"You see? I've spent months fighting, absorbing their data." IceDevimon pointed. "They are all mine! I am the strongest Digimon! The ONLY one worthy of being YOUR partner!"

"Yeah, I doubt that." A voice grabbed their attention.

"Huh? WHAT?!" IceDevimons snapped and saw them

Standing there... Was Rena, Taichi, Zero, Takata, Gali, Henry and Terriermon. None of them noticing, behind Taichi's leg was the small Calumon

"Rika!" Rena called out in shock, seeing her partner in the clutches of this vile Digimon but Rika didn't look at anyone, just at all the frozen Digimon with a look that was a mix of horror and hollow nothingness

"Let her go!" Taichi called out, readying his Digivice.

IceDevimon laughed, forming a D-Arc made out of ice and placed it in Rika's hands before he walked forward "Let me prove my strength!"

"Rika, DON'T!" Henry called out.

"TERRIER TORNADO!" Terriermon spun around and tried to hit IceDevimon. The attack didn't do anything to the Champion, who stood to his full ten feet tall and grinned evilly

"Didn't work." Henry frowned "Damn it."

"Got his attention though." Terriermon answered

"PYRO SPHERE!" Gali roared

IceDevimon easily dodged the blast and glared at them. "FROZEN CLAW!" He lashed out, shooting icicles at them

"Rika!" Taichi yelled, flinching as the cold washed over him

Zero growled and cracked his knuckles "Looks like a good challenge." he commented

"Your two little friends couldn't hit me. What makes you think YOU can?" IceDevimon asked

"The names Zero. I kicked Arkadiamon's ass. So let's go." he commented

"Z-Zero?" IceDevimon gasped as he heard that. But then he realised 'Zero? If I kill him, I WILL be the strongest!' He grinned and laughed madly "Look, Rika! I shall prove to you I am the strongest! That I am your true partner! By deleting and absorbing the data of the legendary Zeromaru, the Super Ultimate!"

"Digi. Modify." Rika whispered, gesturing a swiping motion with the ice Digivice. While it did nothing, being made of ice and all, IceDevimon laughed and charged forward

"FROZEN-!" IceDevimon flew forward

"JUMP!" Taichi called out having swiped a card.

"V-HEADBUTT!" Zero leapt up, dodging the attack. He basically turned into a blue blur, using his attack to shoot high into the air

"You guys! Try and talk some sense into Rika!" Taichi snapped "I'll keep him distracted!"

"Got it!" Takata nodded, as she and Henry ran to her.

"Get away from-ARGH!" IceDevimon snapped but was kicked in the face.

"Eyes on me asshole!" Zero snarled. He grabbed IceDevimon's arms from behind, forcing them behind his back and twisting them in midair before slamming IceDevimon into the ground face first

"Rika, it's us. It's your friends." Henry spoke, trying to help.

Takata grabbed Rika's hand and tried to wrench the ice-Digivice from it but her grip refused to weaken, Rika pushing Takata away "Rika, we're trying to help." Takata frowned

"RARGH!" IceDevimon snarled and lashed at Zero, but barely missed. A small cut appeared on his cheek, some blood dripping from the wound

"Alone." Rika whispered "Hated. They all leave."

"What?" Terriermon asked

"Mama, what she mean?" Gail asked

"I don't know." Takata frowned

Zero kept his hands up in a boxers stance, boning and weaving to dodge IceDevimon's claw slashes
Taichi got into Zero's eyesight and nodded, giving an instruction.
Zero gave a flinched wink.

"FROZEN CLAW!" IceDevimon slashed at him, only for Zero to leap up and run up the Champion's arm and back flip kicked in his chin. He held both of IceDevimon's arms and pulled him in, preforming a second kick to the chin as an extra measure

"Rika. Its me, Takata." The goggle girl urged softly, making the red head look at her

She was silent, vacantly looking at her love rival...and began to feel rage in her frozen heart
Rage and despair

"Rena's here, we're trying to-" Takata tried to speak to her, only to be shoved/punched

"Stay away!" Rika shirked before she hugged herself

"Rika!" Rena reached down and tried to touch her.

"You hate me Takata!" Rika said, her eyes still almost glass like

"What?" Takata asked in confusion

"You HATE me!" Rika yelled, snapping at her.

"Where's this coming from? No, I don't." Takata defended "Yeah you and I don't get along the best but we are rivals, friends. You piss me off sometimes, yeah, but you're my friend." Takata urged

Rika flinched as she heard that. Backing into herself more, ice forming around her heart 'She hates me.' she thought

"Come on Rika, your a badass!" Takata urged "You always speak your mind, your smart and you can kick anyone's ass!"

"Mama." Gail gasped as she heard that.

Rika was silent, the ice around her heart cracking

"It's Henry, Rika." the blue haired boy said next

"I'm nothing to you." she whispered as if on instinct

"ENOUGH!" IceDevimon roared as he shattered a large section of his collection and absorbing their data, his arms growing larger and bulkier

"Oh crap!" Zero gasped as he saw that.

"Don't worry, Zero!" Taichi reassured him. "We can do this! Shield Activate!"

Around Zero was a glowing blue shield that covered his body which protected him from IceDevimon's fist to his torso. He was still sent flying, but it hurt much less than it should have

"That's not true, Rika." Henry frowned

Rika glared at Henry, wondering WHY he was talking to her. Why he kept trying to lie to her, the ice around her heart growing thicker

"Rika." he frowned

"What?" She glared

"Don't listen to them! You're like me!" IceDevimon called out

SMASH!

"Shut up!" Zero snapped

"I admire you for your skill and confidence. While I admit that your brashness annoys me at time, and you are a bit battle mad, you are someone I'm happy to think of as a friend." Henry smiled

"F-Friend?" Rika's eyes began to water, hearing those words. The second layer of ice cracking

"Rika. It's me." Rena knelt down as she saw her

"Rena?" Rika asked, hope filling her eyes

"Yes, yes it's Rena." Rena nodded, cupping her cheek. "Your partner."

"LIES!" IceDevimon roared as he slammed Zero to the floor and pinned him there "DO YOU KNOW WHAT SHE WAS DOING WHEN I CAPTURED YOU?!"

"Fighting YOU?" Zero grunted, the shield holding up for now.

"SHE WAS MATING WITH THIS WORTHLESS DRAGON!" IceDevimon revealed

...

"HUH?!" The group except for Zero, he gulped in worry.

"You? You were SPYING on us?!" Rena snapped... And Rika suddenly pushed her away "R-Rika." Rena gasped

"You. You traitor. Get out. GET OUT!" Rika roared as tears fell from her eyes like rivers, another layer of ice growing around her heart

"Rena. Help Zero." Taichi frowned. Rena looked at Rika and then nodded. Leaping into the fight and attacked. She held the D-Arc tightly... And charged "... How long you gonna mope for?" Taichi asked as he squatted in front of her so they where eye level

"Huh?" Rika asked, looking up at him as she recognized those words

"He told you every doubt you refused to think about, didn't he?" he asked, gently copping her cheek "I'll be simple. He's wrong."

"I am NOT-ARGH!" IceDevimon snapped, only for his back to be riddled with razor sharp leaves

"We care about you. We are your friends." Taichi whispered softly as he pressed his forehead agaisnt hers softly "Yes, you use to be cold hearted. You use to see Digimon as just data. That only the strong deserve to survive... But not anymore." Rika looked up at Taichi, tearing up as she looked at him. But this time she was crying of joys "You are an amazing young woman. Smart, tactical. You care about Renamon like a sister, you are trying to be thoughtful of others feelings." Taichi said softly

'T-Taichi.' She thought as her lip shuddered as more cracks formed in the ice

"Baka." he joked, referencing once again to back when she helped him get out of a similar state as he kissed her forehead "I'll see you later. Please get over whatever... This is. I've still have a lot to teach you." he said as he stood up and walked away back to the battle "I'm not like him, Rika! As long as you want me to be, I'm here for you!" he called back to her

'Whoa.' Takata thought in awe.

"Taichi..." Rika whispered. And that was when she felt a... Warmth around her. Looking down she gasped, realising Taichi had wrapped his yellow cloak around her like a blanket to stop her shivering from the cold

"You think you two can stop ME?!" IceDevimon growled, holding Renamon and Zero

"Your an insect. A scavenger... So yeah." Taichi nodded, grinning "Zero! Time for an Override!"

"Thanks. I've been holding back." Zero grinned before his eyes narrowed and growled in anger. He gained a visible aura of energy as he grabbed IceDevimon's wrist and squeezed, crushing it

IceDevimon's eyes shrunk back in shock and screamed as his wrist was crushed.

"An Over-what?" Henry blinked

"Digimon are data. Changing their data, like how a large burst of emotion changes your brain chemistry slightly, can increase their power." Taichi explained "Zero is an Ancient Type Digimon so his Override's are especially power. He gets mad? He's nearly twice as strong."

"This-this strength! Let it go! Let it go!" IceDevimon shouted

"Okay." Zero shrugged and ripped his hand off.

"AAAHHH!" IceDevimon screamed as his arm was gone, throwing Renamon away... Into the ice spiked wall, her body pierced in several places

"RENA!" The Tamers and their Digimon shouted in fear.

Zero's rage began to spike again, his power overflowing and erupting. "BASTARD!"

IceDevimon destroyed more of his collection, absorbing the data and regaining his arm

"R... Rena?" Rika whispered in fear as she started to slip out of her depressed spell

"Ri-Rika." Rena wheezed, her body penetrated by the icicles. Zero leapt up and punched IceDevimon in the face, fighting him in a growing rage.

"Rena... Rena no..." Rika whimpered, crawling over as the ice around her heart cracked more and more "No!"

"N-not possible!" IceDevimon gasped as Rika destroyed the ice Digivice and ran over to Rena.

"Rena!" she yelled "Rena! Rena, I'm sorry!" Rika cried as horror filled her heart, the ice that was encasing her soul shattering in an instant "Please. Please don't leave me."

Renamon slowly reached up and held her hand that was on her fur. "Never." She looked up at her with a weak smile. Rika blinked, seeing her D-Arc in Rena's paw... And she cried harder

Zero was continuing to pummel IceDevimon, only to be slapped away by the Champion. But the demon-like Digimon had sustained damage.

"Rena. Don't die, I need you." Rika cried "You're. You're like my sister. My best friend."

"Rika." Rena smiled weakly before she coughed up blood

"RENA!" Rika cried and her Digivice blew out an amazing white light

'You can do it!' the small white puffball thought, the red triangle on his head glowing

DIGIVOLUTION!

A cocoon of blue Digital energy surrounded Rena, and she levitated upwards

"Rena?" Rika whispered, hope filling her voice

"RENAMON DIGIVOLVE TOO-!" Rena's voice proclaimed as she was transforming
Her skin was ripping off, leaving the digital net, her posture became more like an actual fox, a mane appeared around her neck and a large bow of some sort, her feet were aflame as he singular tail split into many.
"KYUBIMON!" Rena proclaimed and landed on the ice, fully healed and now in her own Champion form. Blue flames licked at the ice, the large fox standing there proudly

"How? You were ready to DIE!" IceDevimon snapped, catching Zero in his hands

"Because... I won't let my partner die to a creep like you." Rika stated, turning behind her and giving IceDevimon a glare filled with blazing passion

"Get him, Rena." Zero grunted

"Rika." Rena smiled as she heard that

"Rena." she said simply, a smile on her face. She stood up tall, turning to IceDevimon and said four classic words "Walk all over him."

"With pleasure, Rika." Rena answered and leapt at the Champion Digimon. The flames began to lick around her and she charged

"Get here, fox!" IceDevimon snarled as he lunged a her.

Kyubimon was like a blur, jumping and twisting out of his grasp like water. Kyubimon spun around, her feet delicately touching the icicles before bouncing at him "DRAGON WHEEL!" She spun and created a wheel of flame, cutting into IceDevimon like a buzzsaw.

IceDevimon slashed his wings, creating a massive cold wave as he tried to back up. Kyubimon landed on her paws, Zero having gotten out of IceDevimon's grip after he was carved up. He landed on Kyubimon's back, blinking

"How did I get here?" Zero blinked in confusion

"He dropped you." Kyubimon commented as she landed and lowered herself "Can you get off please?" she smiled lovingly at him "It's my turn to impress."

"Kick his ass." Zero slid off and smiled and parted her backside like she was a horse

Rena blushed and leapt at IceDevimon, determined to destroy this Digimon who stole her partner. Her body rolled and twisted, dodging his claw

"Get back here!" IceDevimon snarled, crushing another icicle of Digimon and absorbed the data

"Tails, right." Rika said confidently

Rena didn't hesitate and did as she was told, blowing away the data before IceDevimon could absorb it while also throwing blazing ember all over him "ARGH!"

"Thanks." Zero leapt up and kill-stealed the data.

"Hey!" Terriermon snapped

"Sorry, next time though." Zero chuckled awkwardly

"Those are MINE!" IceDevimon broke off two icicles and threw them at Rena

"FOX TAIL INFERNO!" Kyubimon called with a loud and dramatic roar of power

IceDevimon's eyes widened as he saw his icicles melt away into nothing and data flew into the air.

"MINE!" Terriermon leapt into the air and absorbed the data.

"STOP STEALING MY STOLEN DATA!" IceDevimon roared. "FROZEN CLAW!"

Kyubimon quickly fired another fire blast, damaging his arm "Nice try." she mocked with a grin

"ARGH! FUCK!" He roared as his arm was slowly digitizing.

"End it." Rika stated

"DRAGON WHEEL!" Rena spun in place and transformed into her flaming circle form and created a dragon of flames

"NO!" IceDevimon howled on fear

SHATTER!

Rena had attacked him, crushing him and some of the icicles in her Dragon Wheel, steam and smoke covered the destruction of the field. IceDevimon was no where to be seen... But they knew he wasn't gone

Zero looked on at Rena and gave a thumbs up. "Nice."

"He got away." Terriermon nodded

"Oh, nasty Ice-Mon fled." Gail frowned

Rika walked up to Rena and looked into her eyes; before giving her a big hug. "You're okay." she muttered

"Because of you." Rena whispered back, nuzzling gently into her arms, giving her a loving reassurance, like a sister "Your love gave me strength."

Coming into the cave were Neo, Hideto, Mari and Sigma. Seeing the frozen cave and captured Digimon. The end of a battle and a newly Digivolved Rena "Wow, good job." Hideto commented

"Nice!" Maro clapped

"This is devastating, all these Digimon." Sigma whispered in shock, seeing the large amount of Digimon frozen.

"Disgusting." Hideto nodded

"What're we gonna do with them?" Takata asked, debating what to do. The group pondered this for a minute in silence, the ice slowly melting from the slowly rising temperature.

"Free them." Neo answered simply.

"Huh?" Taichi asked

"We destroy the ice. And we free their data." Neo explained simply. "Let them rest in piece."

"...That's big of you to say." Taichi smiled, seeing how far Neo came since his time as a dangerous Digimon Tamer. He smiled, proud of his friend

PUNCH!

"OW! What the heck?" Taichi snapped, a huge welt on his head

"Be quiet, Yagami." Neo commented lightly

"Didn't have to hit me though." Taichi grabbed a piece of broken ice and pressed it against his welt.

"Aww. What's wrong you big baby?" Rika snickered, holding Taichi's cape close to her body to conserve her body heat

"Very funny. Let's free these pour souls." Taichi answered

"Right." everyone nodded

The Digimon shot out their attacks and destroyed the data, each of them holding back the urge to absorb the data. They watched the data flout into space, everyone silent

*time skip *

The group were back at home, except for Rika, Takata, Taichi and their respective Digimon. Taichi was with Rika, the two outside the red heads front door as the brunette knocked in the door. Takata was waiting around the corner

"Yes? RIKA!" Mrs Nonaka asked, red eyes from crying and immediately hugged her daughter "You're okay!"

Rika was silent, quietly crying as she was reunited with her mother 'Oh mum!' she thought

"She's okay." Taichi assured "She's strong."

"Thank you." Mrs Nonaka whispered, looking at him.

"Mum, can we have a moment?" Rika asked

Mrs Nonaka sniffed and nodded. "Of course." She kissed her daughters forehead before she walked into the house

"What did you want to ask?" Taichi asked

"Thank you. For everything." Rika said as she carefully placed his cape back into his hands, returning it... And then she kissed him
Right on the lips
"Later Goggle-Head." she smiled softly with a blush as she pulled back, the kiss a small lip on lip touch,before she ran off into her house and closed the door

Takata gasped as she saw that, pulling back and was blushing. Taichi stood there and blinked in shock "I... Wow..." he blinked. He slowly sauntered off to the wall where Takata was waiting "Hey."

"Hi." She responded.

"Um, did you see anything?" Taichi asked her.

"No." she said quickly

Taichi nodded at that. "Okay, want to walk back?" He offered

"Sure." Takata smiled

*elsewhere*

Gail, Rena and Zero were on their own in the park, Zero having been given the quiet treatment as he looked down in shame

"You and Zero...Are mates?" Gail asked Rena as they got home.

"Yes." Rena smirked "He was so forceful, manly. He made me his."

"...But. WE mated too." Gail thought a little confused

"Well, you see Gali, he wanted a woman who was a bit... More." Rena smirked as she crossed her arms under her breasts and raised them slightly to emphasize them

"Huh?" Gail wondered and looked down, noting that she lacked breasts. She shook her breasts lightly and pouted 'No fair.' Gail thought.

"Um, can I say something?" Zero asked

"Or maybe he prefers a woman with more in back?" Rena added as she turned her back to them, lifting her tail up high to show her ass. Meanwhile she brought a leg up and rested it agaisnt an air conditioning unit on the roof, showing off her thick thighs

'Oh, sweet thighs.' Zero drooled lightly.

"Well Gali thinks your butt is too big." Gali pouted

SNAP!

"What? Did you say?" Renamon asked, her eyebrow twitching as she lowered her leg

"Gali thinks Rena's butt is too big!" Gali said, now narrowing her eyes with a frown. The two's eyes glared as their teeth were shown and electricity sparking between them

'I gotta fix this!' Zero thought, snapping out of his stupor. "Ladies, ladies. Wait a second; okay?" He stood between them and held his hands out, in the way so they wouldn't hurt each other. The two girls growled and huffed, turning their backs on each other but listened to what he'd say
"Okay, I know I mated with both of you. But don't think I don't care about both of you; in fact, I DO." Zero began to answer. "I know this sounds like something an undetermined guy would say in a crappy romance manga, but it's true. Gail, you're: sweet, adorable and innocent. Rena, you're: hot, sexy and driven. I like BOTH of those traits. And can we get some compromise before one of us gets deleted by a rogue battle?"

"I have no problem with you having another mate." Rena commented

"Yeah." Gali nodded

"Good. Fantastic." Zero sighed in relief, finding that both of them were willing to do this. "... Wait, what? Then why are you two mad?" he blinked

"No." both said, glaring at each other. Showing it was pure womanly pride between them

'I don't understand women.' He thought with a frown.

*with Taichi*

"Here we are." Takata smiled as she finally spoke after they finished walking back.

"Yes." Taichi nodded, the two outside their homes

"Goodnight." She answered, kissing his cheek quickly. So quickly Taichi didn't have a chance to react. The blushing and smiling Takata ran inside, giggling to herself and muttering something under her breath. Something like 'You haven't won yet Rika' but he wants sure

"What... What is my life?" he blinked in complete shock and confusion
