Andrea Household

[Miyagi Kasumi]

Brittany's family live within one of the many apartment complexes through out Japan. While it appears small from the outside, it is quite large in the inside. It hold four bedrooms, a living room that is combined with the kitchen and one bathroom. It holds many decorations, though mostly holding to the theme of anicent japan.

[Miyagi Kasumi]

It has been two days since the events of that alley way, and Brittany has now started to understand the idea of what a tamer is and what it means for her to have a digimon. Though she isn't that thrilled with the idea of keeping something like this to herself, she is pretty sure that if she spoke of this to her mother, or to anyone, Veemon would be taken away and treated as an experiment, which is something even she couldn't wish upon the little guy.

So, for the time being, she has allowed him to stay within her bed room closet. Making it as much as a room for him as possible, due its rather large size. Veemon didn't complain about it, in fact, he rather likes the idea of having something to himself,instead of sharing it.

Also,during this time, the young girl has allowed herself to do research on the topic of digimon, mostly through watching the tv show and reading up on the rules of the popular card game. While the connection is somewhat similar, she was positive that they didn't expect anything like this to happen. But, with digimon like Ogremon appearing, it wasn't as if there were many options for the few that wished to try and defuse these appearances. Unless you were like Brittany, who didn't want anything to do with going out and fighting digimon, dispite the request of her partner.

"No Veemon! It hard enough keeping you locked up within my bedroom, but you want to go out there and fight other digimon!? Are you nuts?"

Brittany continued to read her textbook, not seeing the look of disappointment on the dragon's face as he crossed his arms over his chest. She understood that even he needed air, but the fact that he was the size of a human child made it somewhat difficult. Not only that, but how would she explain their actions if they were caught?

"Come on! I haven't seen daylight in days! Im dying in here!"

Veemon moaned as he then held his hands over his heart as he fell over and pretended to be dead. He had done this already, and she was still not amused by it. But then, this was her wish. She asked for more excitement in her life, what could be more exciting than a talking lizard that needed excerise and fresh air?

A sigh escaped her lips as she shook her head." Maybe later tonight we can go for a walk. But I have to finish reading this..."

The digimon quickly jumped to his feet and then walked over to the girl as he jumped onto her lap and looked over the book with a blank expression.

"Ehhhh What the heck is it about?"

"Its math"

"Oh! You mean like numbers and stuff"

Brittany nodded with a small smile as the Veemon then looked at two of the problems, scratched his head and then jumped off her lap and laid ontop of her bed.

"You poor girl..."

"Shut up.."

Brittany then tossed a pillow towards the Veemon's head, giggling as he threw one at her. Perhaps, this was worth all the trouble...

-Few days later-

As crickets could be heard from outside her window, Brittany sat infront of her mirror, smiling to herself as she untied the yellow ribbon that had been holding her hair, causing it to lose it's left and fall ontop of her shoulders. This day had to have been the best yet. Not only had she gone on a date with a really sweet guy, but she also managed to do so without her mother knowing about it.

While she felt bad about doing so, she knew that informing her mother about Chaos would be unwise. For one thing, she knew the middle aged woman would not only forbid it, she would do whatever she could to prevent her from doing anything without her consent. Not as though she wasn't already doing things without her knowledge. After all, she did have a dragon living inside her closet.

Which reminded her, she needed to take the digimon outside for the evening. She had promised him that as soon as she came back, she'd take him out to stretch out his legs. Letting her bare feet touch the ground, the pajama dressed teen slowly walked towards the large closet doors, opening them to see the Veemon was fast asleep. But then, she wasn't surprised by this, it did explain why everything had been so quiet.

"Hmm...Whats this?"

Brittany then knelt onto the wood floor as she reached into the blue digimon's lap to pick up the book on top. It was a manga, a digimon manga at that. How in the world did he come across her old anime collection? In any case, the digimon appeared to have been reading them, must have been what he would do while she was gone.

The girl smiled as she opened up the manga, grinning as she saw one picture of a Veemon standing next to one of the digi-destined. In a way, this digimon and her own were alittle similar, yet she was sure that the makers of these comics couldn't have predicted that a Veemon actually existed.

"I guess I am lucky...."

Gently stroking the dragon's head, she slowly closed the door, before walking back to her desk to sit down. As she continued to scan through the manga, she noticed a reminded of the annual Digimon Convention. It was pretty much a time when fans of the digimon show and manga would come down and meet the makers, artists and even the voices. It was usually a fan boy affair that many of the guys and even girls went to just to have fun. At least the ones that were still interested in digimon.

It was then that Brittany got an idea. An evil smirk came over her face as she knew this would be Veemon's best chance at getting a taste of human life outside of the closet.

"He will definatly love this...."

-A week later-

" Must I really?"

"Yes, Brittany we have already gone through this. A geisha must wear the traditional attire in order to make the appeal. You know this already..."

The middle aged female looked at her daughter and sighed as she was somewhat disappointed in having to repeat the basics. She just didn't understand what was going through the young girl's mind this week. So far, she had been late for her dress rehearsal, unprepared for her last performance, and for some odd reason, going out late and then returning late for her curfew.

"Just what is going on with you Brittany?"

Brittany, now dressed within a red kimono that was decorated in small pink cherry blossoms and a red ribbon tied around her waist, sighed as she lowered her eyes for a moment. Looking down at her wooden sandals and white socks, the girl looked up quickly and smiled brightly towards her mother.

"Nothing! I just been really busy as of late..."

"So I have noticed....As to what is really the issue.."

Lifting up her hand to the back of her head, the girl looked towards her sleeve as it slid down the length of her arm to her shoulder, gently rubbing the back of her head.


"Its nothing really..just school work and....stuff..."

"Genni?"

".........Hai?"

As Brittany responded, she held a nervous smile as her shoulder rose up as he head was lowered slightly.

"Body straight Brittany.."

Hearing this, the teen quickly straightened her posture and nodded quickly as she adjusted the yellow ribbon in her hair that held up the small bundle above it.


"Now...please put on your make up so we can practice the run of the performance..."

" Hahaoya hai.... "

Loud claps followed behind her as she quickly moved towards her bed room, leaving her mother with a blank expression on her face.

"That child...."

-----------------

" Wow...all this for a show?"

Veemon looked towards his tamer with a blank stare, keeping within his closet as he continued his reading of Digimon Adventure Manga. Brittany nodded as he continued to apply the white powder to her face, sighing as she really did hate doing so. It always made her look like a ghost, a ghost with read lips and pink eye liner.

"It supposed to be tradition, though I don't know how my ancestors could stand doing it. I don't even know how my mom can do it so much..."


"Well, at least you'll look nice right?"


"I guess....but its alot of trouble for just one show..."

"Speaking of which, did you ask your mom about singing in the performance...."

"Yea....she said that Im not blessed to sing. That I should stick to poems of playing the piano or serving tea..."

Blinking for a moment, the Veemon looked up from his book and stared towards the back of his tamer. He knew that it must have hurt her alot to hear something like that...especially from her mother. Though her tone of voice seemed to hide all emotional effect.

"That...sounds alittle harsh..."

"Thats my mother for you....But its ok..."

Looking back towards the digimon, Brittany grinned as she then began to apply the eye liner next.

-A week Later-

Brittany slowly opened the door to the apartment, looking around the living room and then towards the kitchen that was not too far from it. From the look of it, her mother had yet to arrive. If she was correct, she'd be at the theatre for at least another two hours. That would be all the time she needed to get Goblimon a few things from her dad's closet and then for them to get to the bowling alley within down.

"Ok...everything's clear..."

Taking off her shoes at the door, she walked into the living room and smiled as she waited for everyone to get inside.

"Welcome to the Andrea Residence..."

Veemon walked in next and smirked as he walked slowly towards the fridge, pulling out a can of juice and drinking it while the others walked inside. As he did so, he looked around the living room and almost felt that he was in ancient Japan. Brit's mom sure did believe in tradition, she had just about everything that you'd see in an old japanese home back then. Minus...a Katana, but Brittany had her wooden one hidden in her room.

[darkness]

Chaos walked around after taking his shoes off as well it was a nice place and he liked the theae as well. "It feels comfey." he said looking around the house to see what was there. Hopfuly they didn't get caught here, two teenagers alone in a house is still very suspicous that's for sure.

Goblimon smiled and walked around the place looking for somthing to eat like always. "Goblimon, No eating unless Brittany says you can and absolutly no breaking anything." Chaos said stirnly. Goblimon sighed. "He ruin's all my fun."

[Miyagi Kasumi]

"Oh its ok! We have some leftovers inside the fridge. Help yourself Goblimon. But yea, be careful around the living room, half this stuff is older than I am..."

Brittany then walked into her parents bed room and began to go through her father's side of the closet. While her father wasn't that big of a man, he did always get his clothes large. Plus, since her mother never really looked into his stuff, she wouldn't notice anything missing.

"Hey Chaos! Can you give me a hand? You know Goblimon's size better than I do!"

By now, Veemon was sitting at the kitchen counter, looking towards the large Goblimon as he continued to drink his soda.

"Aren't all humans like that?"

[darkness]

Chaos nodded and then went over to help his girlfriend find some good clothing for Goblmon. He looked trough all the clothing and found a red hoody that would fit Goblimon and then started looking for pants and shoes as well. "Here we are." He said after findng the other two articals of clothing. Goblimon nodded to his freand and began to devower the leftovers. "Tasty." he said and then began to drink a soda as well. "So your human won't let you have fun either?" he asked

[Miyagi Kasumi]

"I pretty much spend my day inside of a closet. So nope, not one bit of fun intill after dark. But by then, theres nothing really to do..."

Veemon then sighed as he watched his friend devour the content within the large container and then looked back towards the room in which both the humans had entered.

"Hmm, I don't know...thats alittle bright don't you think?"

Brittany then reached back into the closet herself, pulling out a large black hoody. It wouldn't draw too much attention, and maybe it might actually go better with the monster's green skin tone. But then, she wasn't completely sure if it even mattered.

[darkness]

"Yeah I know what that's like I'm usualy hidden in his closet or under the bed hidden by a bunch of toys and stuff. The only times we go out is to work on that Shrine or hang out at night."

He looked over at the humans and sighed. "How is it that they look like their already having so much fun? Can you have fun just being around someone even when there is nothing to do?" Goblimon asked

Chaos laugh a little when she told him it might be too bright. "Hey you know what would be really funny, if we made him wear pink, he waould just freak out about it." Chaos said with another small lusgh. When Brittany showed him the Black hoddy he nodded. "Yes that will work just great." he said
