The Secret Admirer!!
Part 1: The Costume Party!
It was a nice, beautiful spring day in Odaiba and love was in the air. Okay, maybe there wasn't love in the air, but there were a lot of couples around. Speaking of couples, here's one now walking through the park; a couple of 15-year-olds...
"Isn't it beautiful out here," a cute, soon to be 16-year-old girl by the name of Mimi gleamed while hugging on to a tall, blonde-haired boy.
"It sure is," the boy agreed, not at all bothered by Mimi's holding on to his arm. "I've always liked Odaiba. I'm glad my father let me come here for a vacation."
"I'm glad too, Michael," the girl smiled. "That way, we can spend more time together alone."
"So, what do you want to do first since you're back home?"
"I dunno; a bite to eat would be nice."
The two decided to stop by a restaurant to get a bite to eat. While there, a certain someone got a glimpse of them…
"Mimi, Michael?!"
The two looked up and saw a girl with long lavender hair close to their age wearing glasses. It was their 14-year-old friend, Inoue Miyako.
"Miyako..."
"Hi guys, what are you doing here in Odaiba?"
"We're on vacation and Mimi wanted to come back to Odaiba, so I decided to come with her."
"My family is also having a big party," Mimi explained to her younger friend. "My birthday is coming up, you know, but since I won't be able to come during my real birthday because of school, I decided to come early."
"That's nice," Miyako sighed.
"What's wrong?" Mimi asked, a bit concerned. "Have a seat."
"No thanks," the girl shook her head. "I was just getting myself a drink and then heading off."
"But what's wrong?" Mimi asked again. "You seem a bit upset."
"No, I'm fine," Miyako insisted.
"You don't seem fine!!"
"Leave it up to Mimi to get down to the root of a problem," Michael laughed. He then stopped shortly, and asked, "But seriously, what's the matter Miyako?"
Miyako looked over at Michael, frowning slightly. "Well…um…"
"I can take a hint. It's obviously a girl thing," Michael concluded. "Do you want me to leave?"
"No, no, don't do that," Miyako told him. "I have to get going anyway."
"How about we talk later," Mimi offered.
"Um, okay. Where are you going to be?"
"The Suite at the Odaiba Inn...the entire top floor…"
"Wow!! Your folks must be rich!! That place is like a Penthouse Apartment!!"
"Actually, my folks are the ones renting it out," Michael responded timidly with a slight blush.
"Either way it's cool," Miyako complimented. "Well, I'll talk with you later Mimi; nice seeing you again, Michael."
The glasses-wearing girl ran off.
"Wonder what's up with her..."
"Who knows," Mimi shrugged. "Now how about we sightsee some more!"
"Sure..."
The two paid for their food and took off....

Meanwhile…
"Those two are so lucky," Miyako said in envy as she walked down the street away from the restaurant. "I bet all of the boys like Mimi. I bet she's never had trouble getting boys to ask her out…"
The young girl sighed.
"I'm going to be 15 this year and I've still never been out with a boy or even asked out..."
The young girl decided to get off of her thoughts and to hurry herself
along so that she could finish running errands for her mother...
****
"Hey Mimi, what do you think could've been bothering Miyako?"
"I don't know, but I have a feeling that it's boy related. I'm almost positive that it is."
"You sound so sure of yourself," Michael noted.
"Well, she does email me a lot you know."
"I guess that would explain it."
"Well, we have to finish gathering things for my party on Saturday."
"Two days...you only have two days to finish getting everything together."
"Everything already is, it's just getting the guests together that'll take some time," Mimi smiled. "So far, our other friends from America are getting here tomorrow, it's just getting my Chosen pals from here to go. I can't believe how absent-minded I can be!! I totally forgot to invite them; although, I thought I had."
"I'm sure they'll come." Michael then whistled. "Man, this is going to be one big party."
She nodded.
"You're only 16 once, well, in this case, twice since my official b-day hasn't come yet."
"Too bad we can't invite our Digimon pals."
"I bet they're having their own party," Mimi laughed.

Back in the Digital World at Tentomon's place...
"How low can you go…" Palmon and V-mon chanted.
"Gabu!!" Wormmon cheered.
"How low can you go…"
"Gabu!!"
Palmon and V-mon are holding a limbo stick and Gabumon is trying to do the limbo under it. The other Digimon are playing other games and partying and dancing, etc. Having a great time!
"Time for a game of poker!!" Tentomon announced. "Palmon's my partner and I want to play against Gomamon and Betamon!! "
"They can't," Agumon informed the bug-like Digi. "Palmon is helping out with Limbo and Gomamon and Betamon are on the karaoke and drums."
"I'll just go join the dancing contest with Tailmon (Gatomon). She could use a partner since Hawkmon's dancing with Piyomon."
"Forget the dances," Agumon said to Tentomon. "Give me the microphone!" Agumon walked up to Gomamon and took his microphone.
"Hey!!" Gomamon cried after Agumon had taken his microphone away.
"Fellow Digimon, we're going to do the ondo; the *Agumon Ondo!!" Agumon's voice echoed on the microphone. He then shouted, "Gabumon, stop breaking your back over there; Patamon, Armadimon, out of the food! Gomamon, Betamon, bring out the big drum! We're all going to do the Agumon Ondo!" He then snickered a bit and quietly said, "Well, all of us except for Patamon, he can do the Pokemon Ondo…"
"I AM NOT A PIKACHU; I AM NOT A POKEMON AND I AM NOT A PIG!!! I AM A PATAMON; A MAMMAL TYPE DIGIMON...A DATA TYPE, AND---"
No one listened to him...
"HEY!!!"
All of the Digimon cheered as Gomamon and Betamon started up the music,
ignoring Patamon pretty much, and Agumon started singing and doing the
ondo and pretty soon, all of the other Digimon joined in...

"I bet you're right," Michael agreed. "They're probably having
their own fun right now, but either way, your party is going to definitely
be something to remember!!"
"Yeah," she nodded, "and to make this party even cooler, we're going to make it a costume party and everyone has to wear some kind of a mask."
"A costume party?!?"
"Yeah, didn't I tell you?"
"No!!"
"Oops, I thought everyone knew," the girl sweat dropped, a nervous grin spread across her face. "Well, our friends flying in tomorrow do, but how in the world could I forget to mention it to you."
"That's okay, but I don't have a costume."
"After I invite my Digidestined friends and spend some time with Miyako, we'll go find you something to wear."
"Sounds like a plan to me."
"You know what else I'm going to do?"
"What?"
"I'm going to help out Miyako and find her the perfect costume to get my plan into action!!"
"Plan? What plan?"
"I already told you it was a boy thing with Miyako. I'm just going to need your help."
"Why do I have this strange feeling that you're going to play matchmaker," Michael muttered dreadfully.
"Because you guessed right," Mimi smiled proudly.
"I know you a bit too well," Michael laughed, "but what do you need me for?"
"Well, I need someone to write a letter for me, but it has to be in a boy's handwriting," Mimi explained. "I already have the boy hooked. I have for a good while now."
Michael could only scratch his head. He had no idea what the young tan-haired girl had in mind…
Anyway, the ondo is a marching dance pretty much and you use that big drum when doing it...forgot what it's called.
Oh, and for the record, I think Pokemon Ondo is cute too. I like that song, and Satoshi (Ash), Kasumi (Misty), and Takeshi (Brock) chibi-fied in their kimonos was cute too while doing the little dance. Nyaasu (Meowth), Pikachu, and Purin (Jigglypuff) were doing the dance too, and Jigglypuff looked kind of funny since its arms are so short. It's the fourth Pokemon ending, btw.
