Digital Mayhem

*The sirens can be heard behind them. Leaving would probably be their best bet. Hitomi walks up beside Taiyo*

"C... Can I help you carry him?"

Taiyo:<You really don't have to...>

"Please? You he... helped me. I want to return the favor."

*Taiyo looks at her strangely for a moment then her eyes widen like she just remembered something then leans close to Hitomi who swings BlackGabumon's arm over her neck and the two carry the now crucified-looking Digimon.*

Taiyo:<Of course I'm going to show you how thankful I am by hugging you, right?>

"That's... all right?"

=====================================================

*Instead the two wander around like a couple of orphans.*

Hawkmon: <That's so sweet.>

Tae: <More lesbian love!>

Hawkmon: <You're probably going to regret having said that.>

Tae: <Damn.>

*He stares at Taiyo and Hitomi with a slightly frightened look on his face.*

Taiyo:<What is he talking about?>

"...I don't know."

*Outside the park, they can still hear the sirens off in the distance, but they don't seem to be moving any closer.*

Taiyo:<Where should we go now?>

BlackGabumon:<I'm... hungry.>

Tae: <Are you two really sure you don't need help with BlackGabumon?>

Hawkmon: <...It's not like I loved either of them, but aren't you kind of worried about Allina and weird guy?>

Tae: <...Well, weird guy stayed at LadyDevimon's castle. Allina... she said she was going to stay back where we--back where Taiyo and Euryale battled Diaboromon. They're probably okay. Right guys?>

*Euryale & co. continue on with the others.*

Taiyo:<I don't know who you're talking about.>

*Since no one bothered to answer Taiyo's question, they end up outside Euryale's house.*

Medusa<Why do you insist on using our house as some kind of criminal fortification?>

*She was still leading the Tsukaimon on a leash, who seemed to have quite a few welts along his back.*

Medusa<He had to be taught some manners, but in the end, we got that window fixed.>

Tae: <You're a horrible person.>

Hawkmon: <I don't like it here.>

Taiyo:<We don't have anywhere else to go?>

Tsukaimon:<Can I go home now? I would really like to go home now.>

Tae: <If we're staying here in London, I need to call my parents.>

Hawkmon: <Doesn't anyone else think Allina and weird guy died?>

E"Hopefully not."

<I haven't decided yet.>

E"Medusa."

<Oh, alright! I guess the window's paid for, anyway.>

*She undoes the collar.*

*Tsukaimon flies off.*

Taiyo:<Can we come in?>

Medusa<You're still not allowed to touch anything.>

Tae: <Can we come in?>

Hawkmon: <(Do we want to go in?)>

Taiyo:<That's nice.>

BlackGabumon:<I'm sure I can walk...>

*The two put BlackGabumon down who's a little wobbly. Putting his arms out he manages to keep his balance.*

*Tae and Hawkmon shrug and walk in.*

Tae: <Okay, we need a plan.>

*Euryale grabs Tae, holding him back, & walks in, Tsune & the Digimon behind her.*

E"You aren't allowed in my house anymore."

Tae: <...Okay.>

*He walks out and sits outside with Hawkmon.*

*Taiyo hugs Hitomi.*

Taiyo:<(Thank you.)>

"You're welcome?"

*Taiyo lets go of her and smiles before following Euryale inside, BlackGabumon not far behind. Hitomi looks at the house then at Tae sitting beside him. A big gap between the two. Taiyo looks back like she has no idea what's going on before closing the door*

Taiyo:<I'm sure she'll come in eventually.>

[Maybe.]

E"Huh. Didn't think she'd like being touched."

*Tae glances at Hitomi before proceeding to stare at the ground.*

Tae: <Hey. Not going in?>

*Hawkmon stares at him blankly.*

"She just kind of stood there. Like hugging a tree. A nice tree."

=====================================================

"Maybe later."

Tae: <...Okay. (Okay.)>

*He sighs, closing his eyes.*

T"I'M amazed that Salamon wasn't bitching."

"You think Sallymon wanted a hug?"

=====================================================

*Hitomi glances at Tae and quickly looks away.*

[Should I say something? If so, what should I say? Why am I out here? There has to be a reason, otherwise I may have went inside. May have...]
