Just another day, that's what it seemed like for the two as they walked the back streets of the city. Not wanting to deal with anyone lately, Ikuto was avoiding everyone, only his partner beside him, a worried look plastered to his face.
Falcomon spoke to the boy, his wing catching an arm before it could flinch away. "Ikuto, come on. You have to go and see Chika and the others sometime. They miss you."
Pulling his arm away from the feathery hold, the male frowned, turning his back from his Digimon, rigid. "No!! Me not want to see them!!" His frustration was apparent as the air around them suddenly grew cold.
Turning around several times, the Falcon Digimon felt something was wrong in the air. Something was coming, a dark feeling crept up his back. Wheeling toward his Human, the bird tugged on his arm.
"Ikuto, we have to go..."
"Falcomon!! Me stay." He refused outright to be moved, still upset. His demeanor grew prickly, and his arms crossed at the elbows.
Darkness washed over the sky, and shadows fell on the two there in the alley. Beak upturned, Falcomon's eyes went wide as the cold feeling surrounding them grew immensely.
A whisper took hold of their ears, something malicious, and deceitful.
'I need you in the Digital World...'
It echoed in their ears, and Ikuto fell unconscious, as his body slipped into Falcomon's winged grip. "Ikuto!! Wake up!!" Shaking his partner, the darkness grew and encompassed the area around the pair.
Black tendrils whipped around, snagging their legs, and entrapping them. Struggling was useless, and the force pulled the two down. Soon vision was void, and the sensation of falling was all the Digimon felt.
They were smack dab on the ground, in an open area. Falcomon's eyes opened and his head whirled around. They were home...back in the Digital World!!
His wing took a hold of the boy's shoulder and shook Ikuto. "Ikuto, wake up!!! Come on!" His beak chattered and the boy soon shifted around, lifting his head.
"Falcomon...where are we..."
"We're home...Ikuto, we're home!!"
Both parties were looking around, and then it looked too good to be true. The boy realized, that it wasn't quite the Digital World he was used to.
"This...not home..." Falcomon looked at Ikuto after he had spoken, shaking his head.
"What do you mean?"
"It not home!!" It was then that the young Warrior began walking, and Falcomon followed silently behind, taking to the sky.
If they had been dragged there, maybe Masaru and the others were there as well! He had to look for them. Ikuto began to yell out. "Chika!!! Piyomon, you here?!!"
"Masaru!!! Agumon where you at!??"
Falcomon looked worried at the landscape ahead, they were both worried. If it was indeed a different Digital World, there was bound to be problems ahead.
It was easy for her to say that to someone, but not Ikuto. His Digimon partner was out there somewhere, and he had to go and find him!! Tears pricked at his eyes as she held him down gently, whispering to him it'd be alright.
It wouldn't be though -- Falcomon was...He was missing.Ikuto wouldn't sit by and let his partner suffer where ever he was.
"Chika...let go...."
It was all he could do not to completely knock her away and sprint out the door, covered in bandages and bruises.
(undress meme) Chika walked into the bathroom, thinking no one was in there but surely there stood Ikuto undressing. "....." Now that they were no longer children things were more different. "......." Her face went completely red and she threw her towel she had in her arms at him. "Ah! Ikuto! Lock the door next time!" She said turning around quickly (after the fact that she got an eye full) and left the bathroom.
Tossing his cloak, and shirt upon the back of the toilet, he was getting ready to take a bath.When the doorknob turned and the door opened with a creak, and Chika headed inside.Ikuto’s eyes went wide as he turned around, his shorts and boxers already at that level where she was able to see it all, weather or not she wanted to. His face was red as he stuttered and got a towel thrown at him.
"Chika!! Me sorry!!"
Sighing, he covered himself, and fell against the edge of the sink, running a hand through his hair.Though, Chika was going to have to show him how to lock the door….for next time.
Sitting on the couch at Chika’s place, they were nestled together, their Digimon enjoying a T.V. show on the floor, sitting together, leaning forward, completely absorbed.
Yawning with a stretch, the young brunette rolled her neck around, as Ikuto glanced over, seeing she was having some issues.
"Me help?" He asked, reaching to place his hands on her back. She nodded, turning, and shifting her legs so that they were curled against her body.
Beginning to rub around her back, he used his hands in circular motions, pressing lightly as he rubbed around her back. Moving up, his fingers pressed into her shoulders, massaging her muscles there.
His hands moved along her shoulders and also to her neck, rubbing and making sure she wasn’t sore anywhere. As he was finishing, his hands again were at her shoulders, rubbing between the arm and shoulder blades.
Breathing a soft sigh, Chika leaned back against him, turning her head slightly. “Thank you.” She said, and leaned to kiss him lightly, before settling comfortably against the male to watch T.V.
♝: Reading a book together
Called into Chika’s bedroom, the boy shuffled in to see her on the floor with Piyomon. They had a few books they were reading. “Hey Ikuto, you wanna read with me?”
Now he hadn’t done that much in the way of reading while in the Human world, but he was willing to try it. “Yeah!” He grinned and sat down cross legged next to her.
The book she held was titled: "Birds and their habitats"
Smiling over at him, she showed the book. “I thought this would be cool since we both have bird Digimon!” Ikuto nodded and she opened the book.
She read aloud.
"Birds live in any different places. High up in trees, on the ground, in buildings, in bushes, and even inside houses to name a few. The all have many similarities though, like the fact that every bird has feathers and wings."
Shifting her eyes from the book to Ikuto, she handed it to him. "Read from there, I know you can do it!!"
Taking the book in his hands, he swallowed and tried to read.
"Feathers on a...b-bird are soft l-like cl-louds. Many of the water b-birds have water-proof f-feathers which h-help then stay dry when s-swimming."
Smiling, she took the book back, and ave Ikuto a pat on the back. "Good job!"
Ducking his head a blush was noticed on his painted face. "Thanks..."
Crawling out of the tub, he rubbed his hair with a towel, and wrapped it around his body. When all dry, he had to fold it and hang it on his waist. Wrapping part of his hair back into the red ribbon like it was normally, Ikuto then headed out into the hallway.
Hearing sounds from the room Chika slept in, he went to investigate, after all. His clothes were missing.
The door was open, so he stepped inside, a towel wrapped around his waist. His first reaction was to smile, and stop where he was.
Chika was prancing around the room, wearing his shirt and cape, feathers bouncing around as she spun happily. Her face was the most pleased he had ever seen it, and Ikuto didn't want to stop her having fun.
So he just quietly closed the door, and headed back to the bathroom to wait.
♞: Caring for each other while ill (specify which party is which)// <-- Doesn't matter//
The moment he woke up, Ikuto was disoriented. He didn’t know where he was and got up from laying down. Turning his head around, he saw he was in a bedroom….and lying in whoever’s bed was occupying the room.
The door opened to his right, and Ikuto turned sharply, about hopping from the bed. Chika entered with a tray full of good things. There were riceballs, soup, and even a cold glass of Juice. Eyes going wide, the boy cried out at the sight of his friend.
"Chika!! Why me here!" Rubbing his eyes, his face felt flushed. He was obviously working himself up, as Chika walked forward, depositing the tray on a table beside the bed and pressed on his shoulders.
"Hey, stay in bed!!" She scolded, and fought to get him lying down.
The Warrior struggled and fought her, a sad look coming to his features. “But me not sick…”
"Oh yes you are mister!" She was puffing out her cheeks as she finally got him situated. "Now, stop talking and eat." Placing the tray on her lap, she broke off a piece of Riceball and put it near his mouth.
Reluctantly, he obeyed and got comfy, opening his lips and eating. After chewing, he again expressed his feeling of not being sick. “But it okay, Chika…”
He felt fine, but then again, he was stubborn just like her brother.
"You’ll stay here till you’re better and that’s it!" She pursed her lips and stared at him before helping him sit up and handing him the Juice.
Sipping at the cup, he turned his eyes to the bed and mumbled. “Thanks…”
