Digimon Adventure 02

If I had a Tail Hammer

~~~~Ken~~~~

It had been a few days since I woke up and Raya helped me find Wormmon, who came back as Leafmon. Since then, my parents had helped me adjust back into normal life Raya would visit to see jowni was doing.

I still played soccer, but since I didn't have that darkness inside me anymore, I somehow wasn't as good a player as I once was. Come to think of it, I wasn't as smart as before either.

I sat down with my parents to eat dinner, the sound of their chewing filled the room.

"Delicious, dear." Dad said as he put down his empty bowl of rice. Mom smiled and turned towards me.

"So tell us, how was soccer?" She asked.

"Um... I did okay, mom." I answered shyly. It's been a while since I spent an actual meal with my parents, so it was a little unusual for me.

"Some more rice?" She offered.

"It's important that you eat well, for you brain and body." Dad explained as he took another bite, "You may not see it, but you're growing all the time, son."

I looked down and then back up at my mom, holding my empty bowl of rice up towards her.

"I'll have another half a bowl, please." I said, mom happily taking the bowl from me.

"Oh, Ken, tomorrow's soccer practice has been postponed." Mom said.

"This beef stew is delicious! Can I have some more?" Dad asked.

"It's chicken parmesan."

"Oh, nevermind."

After dinner, I felt more full than ever, so when I went back to my room, I sighed at the heavy feeling in my stomach.

"What's the matter?" I heard a voice say from my bed, "What is it, Ken?"

The voice belonged to my partner, Minomon, the in-training form of Wormmon. He digivolved yesterday.

"Nothing really, I just ate too much at dinner." I answered.

"That doesn't sound like you."

"Normally I just eat one bowl, but my folks seemed concerned. So, I ate a little more than I usually do."

"You ate more for your parents?"

"Who would've ever thought that. Boy were they happy. I might have to start eating like this every night." I said smiling at my partner.

"Uh, oh. In that case there's only one thing to do." Suddenly, Minomon began jumping up and down on the bed.

"Jumping jacks! Woo hoo! C'mon, Ken! Feel the burn, crunch those abs!"

I laughed at his crazy antics before finally getting to settle down for bed. However, later that night, I woke up to something glowing in my room and the siund of something tapping and beeping.

I sat up in bed, my vision a bit hazy but I could clearly see someone in my room. A woman with long white hair and wearing some kind of red witch outfit.

"What is it, Ken?" Minomom asked as he woke up.

"Hey, who are you?" I shouted. The woman didn't look the least bit shocked at the sound of my voice.

"Emperor, are you having trouble sleeping? That's because you're through." She said. My eyes widened as i asked her again who she was.

She lifted her head and for the first time I could see her pale face and the large purple sunglasses that covered her eyes.
