[Digimon DA] Parallel Lines

"What?...Confession?"

"It should be said that he said the same thing as a confession."

Sakamoto Chinatsu smiled wryly, trying to make her expression look more natural, but obviously failed.

The summer vacation is over, and Chika Haneda is back to going to school every day.When Chika Sakamoto was having lunch with her friends, the topic of "I told Izumi-san that I like someone like him during the summer vacation" suddenly started, and Chika Haneda almost dropped her chopsticks in surprise.

Haneda Chika put down her chopsticks, put on a serious expression, put her elbows on the table, and made a gesture of serious meditation.

"You traitor, you agreed to be the other party's little angel for the rest of your life?"

"Wait! Qianhua, your avatar is going to be destroyed! You didn't make the promise, little angel!"

She returned to her usual expression, picked up her chopsticks again, and said with a calm smile, "I just want to talk about it. By the way, what is my character setting? Iceberg girl?"

Sakamoto Chinatsu looked a little more relaxed, and her smile brightened.

"Qianhua's setting is absolutely mouthless! Quickly return my cold and cute Qianhua!"

"The cute me is definitely your illusion." Haneda Chika was too lazy to discuss this kind of fruitless topic, so she shifted to the main point. "Qianxia, ​​didn't you also say that you will not confess for the time being?...Of course, I don't mean to blame, I'm just curious."

"It's all the fault of the atmosphere." Sakamoto Qianxia looked sad, glanced at a place where there was no one in the classroom, then looked at her friend and said, "I accidentally said it at the time... Anyway, the person involved didn't The self-consciousness of being confessed, it’s good to let it go like this..."

Sakamoto Chika always greeted people with a smile, such a depressed look didn't suit her at all.Haneda Chika thought for a while, touched her head, showed a gentle expression and said, "If Qianxia thinks it's okay, then do it, but don't make a decision that makes you feel bad inside."

The other party was completely healed by Chika Haneda, and she was very touched, but after thinking about Chika Haneda and Taichi Yagami, she suddenly felt that this friend did not have the position to say such things, so her face was full of helplessness.

"Don't just comfort me, you have to think about the matter between you and Yagami-senpai."

"Um……"

She really couldn't laugh when she thought that since she discovered her feelings, she could no longer be comfortable with Yagami Taichi anymore.She looked out the window and said something softly, the friend sitting opposite could barely make out those few syllables.

very scary?

After reorganizing the other party's words in her heart, Sakamoto Qianxia looked at her friend's indifferent and confused expression, tilted her head, and didn't go any further.

***

For Haneda Chika, "change" is a terrible thing, at least she once thought so.

It took her a long time to get out of the cage that trapped her, and she took a big step forward bravely, but there are some things, some things, she is still unwilling to change.

For example, she doesn't want to destroy the relationship of "Chika Haneda and Taichi Yagami are childhood sweethearts", and she doesn't want to do anything that will deteriorate the relationship.So, she decided not to confess yet.

"I'm back, black big-eared beast."

"Welcome back!"

After returning home, the black big-eared beast went to the entrance to meet his partner immediately, and was hugged by her.After Haneda Chika changed her clothes, she opened the drawer and took out the badge and evolution key that she had deliberately forgotten.Looking at the dimmed badge, she sat on the bed and sighed.

"Qian, is this your badge?" The black big-eared beast sitting in her arms watched her partner's badge carefully, and said with a smile, "It looks like a flower!"

"Indeed..."

She smiled wryly, stood up and opened the drawer, ready to put the evolution key and badge back.

"Unfortunately, this badge...isn't useful, at least for now."

After defeating the Apocalypse Beast, the distortion of the digital world has not been completely corrected, so the old man Xuannei summoned the selected children again, and used the power of their badges to release the power that guards the digital world, so as to restore the digital world. Distortion phenomenon.

At that time, Haneda Chika kept the secret about herself, and gradually moved away from Yagami Taichi and the others, hoping to become independent and never be hurt again.However, at that time, she deeply understood the truth that "every gain is bound to be lost".Although the desire to protect important people has not disappeared, she still can't find the will and mood that silently supported them back then.

If she was alone, her power would be too weak to contribute to the protection of the Digital World.But looking at it optimistically, she was powerless because she hadn't met her partner at that time, and with the strength of eight of them, she could protect the digital world, so there was no need for her to intervene in it.

The black big-eared beast looked at his partner's expression, maintained his innocent face, but said in a very serious tone:

"Thousand's heart is always wavering."

"……Eh?"

"When I was sleeping alone in the Digital World, I once saw a very beautiful light in the darkness. It was the dazzling light that Sen made the emblem shine after she and her companions were awakened."

The black big-eared beast's bright black eyes are exceptionally clear, and it is likely that it has seen clearly the troubles and confusion of its partner.

"But... is it impossible to emit light now?"

Haneda Chika looked at the badge in her hand, the gray color pierced deeply into her heart.As the black big-eared beast said, even if she came to her senses once, her heart would soon return to a wavering state, and she would no longer be able to see her way forward clearly.

She put it in the drawer and closed it gently.

"……sorry."

The black big-eared beast shook its head and climbed onto her lap without looking at her.

"I believe in Qian...Because Qian's heart is easier to shake than anyone else, so only Qian who has made up his mind will become very strong." She couldn't see its expression, and couldn't imagine its serious face at all. Appearance, but feel the heart it is trying to convey.

"If Chien loses that will, let me go find it with Chien."

Seeing the black big-eared beast stretch out its little finger, Haneda Chika naturally stretched out her little finger and hooked it up.

"Let's make an appointment."

"Hmm..." Chika Haneda was finally able to smile, and she said softly, "It's an appointment."

Haneda Chika originally planned to enter the digital world with Black Earmon, and destroy those dark towers that were unsightly and strangely restored.Because they still don't know the reason, Yagami Guang and the others originally wanted to observe for a while.However, as an activist, she felt that it was better to destroy simply and rudely.

However, Daisuke Motomiya suddenly met her to discuss something near the elementary school, so she had to postpone the plan.

***

"Let Kazujoji Ken be your companion... so you must have asked the others, right?"

Chika Haneda was leaning against the wall, holding the big bag that the black big-eared beast was hiding in.There weren't many people passing by here, so the black big-eared beast was able to poke around and move its hands and feet freely.

As a senior who often acted together, she defeated the Tyrannosaurus reformer together, and at the same time witnessed the previous incident where Ichijoji sage saved Hida Iori. Daisuke Motomiya would come to her to discuss the matter of Ichijo sage It's normal.Although before coming to her, he was already prepared to be ridiculed by her for being too naive.

She didn't express her position immediately, but seeing that she didn't teach him a lesson, he felt that there was still hope for her agreement.

"Um...they still can't believe that Kazujoji Ken has changed. But, didn't he save us before? There must be a reason why he killed the Digimon that attacked Iori!...So..."

"I understand what you want to say." Haneda Chika was as cold as ever, Daisuke Motomiya couldn't see what she was thinking. "To be honest, even if I agree with you, it won't affect everyone's thinking. If you want that child to be your partner, you must first get the child's consent, right? Whether everyone can accept it will be a matter of later."

"Ah!...Then I'll go find Kazujoji Ken now!"

"Wait." Haneda Chika saw his happy expression, but couldn't empathize with him.Her position on the matter of Ichijoji sage is quite complicated.She confirmed with her own eyes that he had been reformed, but to be honest, she didn't care too much about whether he would join them, after all, she was used to acting alone with the black big-eared beast.

However, if Kazujoji Ken is regarded as the younger brother of an old friend, she will think it is a good thing that he can join Daisuke Motomiya and the others to make up for everything he has done.

"I reserve my position first, and, in fact, you don't need to discuss it with me."

"However, Chika-san is our companion! It's only natural to consult with you!"

Chika Haneda was taken aback for a moment, then waved goodbye to him.She looked at her hand and muttered to herself, "Because it's a companion...?" It was not without reason that she felt strange, because she didn't think about what he said at all.

***

Mimi Tachikawa went to the digital world to play, and was taking care of a group of cute snowball beasts in a certain forest.Chika Haneda received an email on the digital terminal right after class, and learned about it.In the email, this Princess Taidaochuan ordered her to meet in the digital world as soon as possible, otherwise she would order people to kill the common people... No, it was to make her secret public.

Although she knew that Mimi Tachikawa was just joking, and she felt that she didn't have any secrets in her hands, but when she pulled down the email, she saw "PS I just exchanged emails with Chinatsu last night", and immediately rushed home to enter the digital world up.She wasn't worried about Princess Tachikawa's threat at all, but with Queen Sakamoto as a source of information, she couldn't take it lightly.

When she arrived, Mimi Tachikawa was roasting marshmallows for Snowball Beast.

"Hi! Long time no see Chika!"

"So... Meimei, what did you come here for?" Haneda Chika sat next to her, and fed the cotton candy she handed over to the black big-eared beast with glowing eyes.It is different from her who does not like sweets, it is a living sweet control.

When she saw a cake being swallowed by a black big-eared beast in an instant, she was very worried whether the Digimon would get a human disease from eating too many desserts.But when she thought of Daisuke Motosuke's foodie Bean Beast, she felt relieved a lot.

"You guys are hiding something from me recently, right? Qianxia didn't want to tell me, so I came to you." Tachikawa Mimi smiled, touched the head of Chika Haneda who was still shorter than her, and said, "Well , actually it’s not a big deal. It’s just that we haven’t seen each other for too long, and I just want to see if Qianhua has grown taller.”

"Meimei, let's go to the side to duel... We agreed not to mention height!"

"Okay, okay, I'm just kidding." Mimi Tachikawa looked around and said worriedly, "Barumon is real, where did it go..."

After Haneda Chika calmed down, she introspected a little, and thought that she would turn on her anger switch when she mentioned her height, which really needs to be changed.Mimi Tachikawa rarely has time to come to the digital world, so she decided to accept her invitation and chat leisurely as a friend.

"I'll go find it for you." Chika Haneda stood up, seeing that her partner was having a hard time choosing between "staying and eating marshmallows" and "following her partner", her face was full of helplessness.She said to Mimi Tachikawa: "In exchange, can you leave some cotton candy for the black big eared beast?"

"The black big-eared beast also likes to eat cotton candy..." Mimi Tachikawa couldn't help but smile, and nodded in agreement. "Okay, but if you don't come back soon, the marshmallows will be eaten up."

The trees in this forest are basically the same. For Haneda Chika, who is a little bit road-crazed, finding the way is not an easy task, so she left marks along the way.Finally, she found Balu Beast behind a tree, and when she was about to call it out, she saw it staring at a place in the distance. She followed its line of sight, and the first thing she saw was a tall courtyard. The Dark Tower.

She asked her black big-eared beast to keep quiet, quietly walked behind it, patted it on the shoulder, and made a silent movement.The two Digimon hid behind the tree with her, and then saw a very amazing scene.

There was a strangely dressed adult woman with long white hair who pulled out one of her own hair and put it in the Dark Tower, and then the Dark Tower glowed and turned into a Digimon that had never been seen before.The woman gave the Digimon an order to destroy the dam and flood the town downstream.

Seeing that the woman was about to leave, that unknown Digimon was heading towards the dam, there was no time for her to hesitate on either side.Barumon said that it would evolve to stop "Gaolimon", and let her and the evolved Wutumon track down the woman.

"Okay, you have to contact other people quickly, I don't know if you can stop it by yourself."

Wutumon picked up his partner and chased after the woman in the red dress.The other party seemed to have discovered her pursuit, and after a few contemptuous laughs, he quickly shuttled through the forest and disappeared in front of her eyes.She made Wutumon jump up and looked down at the entire forest from a high altitude, but she didn't notice the woman.

After the tracking mission failed, she decisively let Wutumon rush back to the dam.

***

After she rushed to the dam, she saw that the group of selected children from the primary school group had arrived, and asked the Digimon to prevent the water from rushing down, but the Digimon once called "Gao Limon" by Balumon But crawling towards the top of the dam, perhaps it will never stop before destroying the dam.

"what's the situation?"

She landed next to the children, and Kyo Inoue first told her about Golimon's actions.When she saw the seriously injured Balumon, she knelt down on one knee and said to Mimi Tachikawa, "Mimi, I'm sorry... I didn't bring Balumon back properly."

"Now is not the time to apologize, hurry up and stop Golimon from destroying the dam."

"I see." Chika Haneda asked Mutumon to assist other Digimon in their battles. It was never easy to act while guarding the dam.Wutumon is relatively small, so it is really difficult to stop Gaolimon's actions alone, but other Digimon have adopted a more passive combat mode, so it cannot exert its strength.

"Since the opponent is serious, we have to fight with all our strength."

"Fight with all your strength? Why do you go all out?"

"Just...defeat it seriously."

"You mean to kill it? That's absolutely impossible! Calm down first, and then think rationally!"

Haneda Chika interrupted their argument and said to them: "If you don't defeat it, maybe many Digimon will die because the town is flooded." Her values ​​​​are different from theirs, but she doesn't want to confront Digimon in front of them. Baby under the killer.However, she didn't know that other people didn't know the fact that "the Digimon was transformed from the Dark Tower" at all, and just thought they couldn't bear to do it.

"I don't want to! If we do that, what's the difference between us and that guy!"

Chika Haneda fell silent, thinking about whether it is necessary to let Wutumon fight against "Gaolimon" alone.The direction of their discussion gradually turned to Ichijo Temple Ken, but Daisuke Motomiya still believed in Ichijo Temple Ken, and pointed out that he must have a reason to defeat the Digimon if he killed the Digimon.

Tachikawa Mimi hugged the seriously injured Balumon, and after watching them start a conversation that didn't help the current situation, she finally couldn't help but interject.

"Which one of you has the email address of Ken Ichijoji?"

Chika Haneda remembered that she didn't bring a digital terminal, so she didn't reply, watching Kyo Inoue take out her own terminal.After Mimi Tachikawa took it, she quickly sent an email requesting assistance to Ken Kazujoji.

As the battle intensified, Chika Haneda turned her attention to the dam.The Ninja Beast was hit by Gaoli Beast's powerful punch and hit the ground straight. Wutumon escaped Gaoli Beast's next blow in a thrilling manner, jumped down quickly, and caught the degenerated Maying Beast.

"Enough." Chika Haneda couldn't bear it any longer. If this went on, neither the town nor their partners could hold on. "Wutumon, attack it directly!"

"Chika-san!"

"How kind do you really want to be? It's fine if you can't bear to ordinary Digimon, but you don't need such a heavy sense of morality when facing Digimon transformed from the Dark Tower? If this continues, the entire army will be wiped out!"

Seeing their stunned reactions, she didn't know that she had said something strange, and her previous anger gradually cooled down.

"What happen to you guys?"

"Wait, Qianhua, you just said that the Gaoli Beast was transformed from the Dark Tower?"

She looked at Mimi Tachikawa, and saw that she came back to her senses the fastest and grasped the point of her words.

"...Eh? You don't know?"

"...Of course I don't know!" They said to her in unison. After seeing her innocent expression, Mimi Tachikawa even pinched her face unceremoniously. "Say this kind of thing from the beginning!"

Balumon was awakened by their voices, and asked them to stop the Digimon quickly, and pointed out that it was not a real Gaolimon at all, but was transformed by a strange woman from the Dark Tower.Mimi Tachikawa comforted her partner, while looking helplessly at Chika Haneda who was stunned, she said, "...We already know, but it would be nice if you said it earlier."

Balumon, who had just woken up, let out an "Eh?", showing the same expression as Chika Haneda, but with a little more confusion.

When they were discussing eagerly, Wutumon fought alone after hearing what his partner said. The other Digimon were injured and fell under the dam when they tried to stop Gaolimon earlier, so they were unable to help.Wutumon hit Gaolimon on the abdomen with a "Ninxun Fist" and knocked it aside, but Gaolimon counterattacked and hit it hard, even if it blocked it, it would inevitably be knocked into the air.

"Wutumon!"

At this moment, Flying Insect Beast suddenly appeared to catch Wutu Beast, put it down, and then stepped forward to face Gao Li Beast.When they looked into the distance, Ichijoji Xianzhen came to help them.

Inoue Kyo had a lot of thoughts about Kazujoji's help, and the inner conflicts were gradually resolved after learning that the Gaoli beast was only the work of the Dark Tower.Chika Haneda, who was closest to her, heard her talking to herself:

"Now he...is a companion!"

Inoue Kyo frankly faced her heart of wanting to believe in him, and recognized him as a companion. This feeling turned into strength, allowing the originally fallen Mayingmon to evolve into a mature Agouramon, and was told by the partner that the After "Gaoli Beast" was just an incarnation of the Dark Tower rather than a real Digimon, he quickly died and went to help the battle.

"Are you willing to trust him?"

Haneda Chika stepped forward and stopped beside Inoue Kyo, and after confirming that Mutumon was fine, she saw her and Ichijoji Ken nodding beside her to indicate that they would fight together, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, seeing that the younger generation calmed down She was a little relieved that her struggles had grown.Of course, this comfort also comes from the fact that the younger brother of an old friend is trusted.

Inoue Kyo nodded, smiled and said to her, "Because he is no longer the reformer of the Tyrannosaurus rex, but... a member of the chosen children who will come to rescue."

The three Digimon who had exerted their full strength faced the Golimon transformed from the Dark Tower. Naturally, the results were not much to say, and the matter was finally resolved smoothly.

Later, Ichijoji Xian apologized to them.He said that he would not make excuses for the past, and said "sorry" to them frankly.He doesn't know much about the mysterious woman, only that she can turn the Dark Tower into a Digimon, and that the Dark Tower she approaches can restore its previous functions.He and Chongchongshou intend to clean up the mess by themselves and take all the responsibilities, so they neither told them about it nor could they become their companions.

"Insufficient information will cause us trouble. This is not something you can solve on your own." Haneda Chika put on that harsh look again, and her expression was colder than usual, but Yagami saw through her deliberately pretending indifference , then quietly smiled. "Next time if you find something new, please contact us as soon as possible, okay?"

"I see, I will try to contact you as much as possible."

Ichijoji Xian probably didn't know how to get along with her, and when he met her, he panicked for a moment.

After hearing what Haneda Chika said, Inoue Kyo sent him an email after he walked away.As for how she was ridiculed after Tachikawa Mimi and Haneda Chika discovered her behavior, that is another story.

***

Before going to bed, she discovered that she had received an email from Yagami Taichi in the afternoon, and was about to reply, but then realized that it was already night, so she turned off the digital terminal and went to find him in person tomorrow.

"Qian, go to sleep..." The black big-eared beast was fed a lot of roasted marshmallows by Mimi Tachikawa after the battle. It was very satisfied and very tired today, so when it lay on the bed at bedtime, it was already so tired that it kneaded Eyes are about to fall asleep.

"Well, good night, black big-eared beast."

What Haneda Chika didn't know was that Yagami Taichi from the house next door couldn't sleep because she didn't receive her reply for a long time.
