The Small Reunion

[Trulydestined]

Brian looked out through the airplane window staring out at darkening sky. Watching the sun slowly fade away. "Brian, you ok?" A female asked.

Brian turned to his mother, "Yeah, just really excited about seeing my friends in Japan." A small smile appeared on the Digidestined face.

Brian waited till his mom went to use the restroom. He put his backpack onto his lap and unzipped it quickly. "Patamon you ok in there?"

Patamon popped his head out of the backpack gasping for fresh cool air. "Wow is it hot in there! Brian ow much longer till we get to Japan?"

"Actually we're stopping in New York first.. Then after that then we're headed for Japan."

"So how long with this trip be?" Patamon asked in concern. Wondering how much long he'll have to wait in the bag.

"We should be landing in New York shortly. After that it could be a while before we hit Japan. But if ya want you could sit on my lap. But you have to act like a doll."

Patamon gave a nod then became very stiff, "Wow, you're good at this." Brian commented with a smile on his face.

"Brian? Who you talking to?" Brian's mom asked.

Brian jumped in his seat in surprise. Accidentally dropping Patamon on his head. A few tears began to slip from Patamon's eyes. The little Digimon trying not to scream.

Brian quickly picked up his partner and laid him onto his lap, "No one mom, just keeping myself busy."

"You still have that doll? Aren't you a bit old for it?"

"No, I love him, I could never give him up." He said with a child like chuckle.

His mom gave him a weird look, then sat down back in her seat. Brian leaned down to Patamon whispering something in his ear, "I'm so sorry.. I'll make it up to you. Promise."

[Attention passengers. We will be landing in New York shortly.]

[Mimi Tachikawa]

[Attention Travelers, We Are Now Boarding.]

Mimi heard the announcement, and her heart practically jumped. She finally got to head back to Japan, and be reunited with all of her old friends again, and hopefully meet some new ones as well. Wondering if her friends would be the same or would have changed, Mimi picked up her carry-on bag, and checked with the attendant to make sure her luggage was accounted for under the plane. Smiling, the attendant assured her that her luggage would be safe and is down below.

Walking onto the plane, Mimi had to wait, considering some older man ate to many noodles, and threw up all over the thresh hold of the enterance of the plane. Constantly checking her cell phone for the time, Mimi began feeling nervous that she might miss the flight. Sooner than later, the attendant guided the passengers on the plane. It was finally time!

Looking at her ticket, Mimi whispered, "Seat D5..." Finding her seat, Mimi carefully placed her carry-on above in the cabinet, making sure not to spill it's contents, as she had on many occasions before. Taking her seat and fixing her hair, Mimi looked at the passenger next to her, and recognized him almost immediately. Staring at the boy for a moment, then looking in his lap, seeing a Patamon, it all came together. Mimi said with happiness, "Brian?"[/size]

[Trulydestined]

Brian heard a familiar voice and quickly turned his head to a familiar face. "Mimi? Mimi!" Brian quickly jumped out his seat. He gave a small peck on Mimi's check along with a small hug after wards.

"Wow, you look aw some! How have you been? And what are ya doing here?" Brian heard a small mumble and looked over to Patamon who laid on his side. Motionless in the seat.

"Oh Mimi are you sitting next to me? If so wow, that is really cool, but strange. Right now my mom went to grab something to drink. Please have a seat."

Brian gently picked Patamon on and sat back down into his seat. "Patamon, you can talk now.." Patamon gave a loud sigh.

"Good, my jaw was starting to rust. Hey Mimi! It's great to see you again! How have you been? And where's Palmon? Also you going to Japan too?"

[Mimi Tachikawa]

Mimi, still a little flushed over Brian's cute greeting toward her, sat down and patted the innocent looking Patamon on his head. Smilling sweetly, Mimi replied, "Well, I am headed to Japan, but I guess I haven't told you yet!" Excitement was rising in Mimi, this was really happening! "I have received an invitation from Odaiba High for a year long, including summer, stay in Japan as a Foreign Exchange student. Isn't that wonderful?!" Her face radiant with the happiness in her heart, Mimi gave Brian a longer hug, part out of her excitedness, and part because she wanted to. Releasing Brian, Mimi tucked some of her hair behind her ears and smiled again, saying, "You do not look too bad youself Brian..."[/size]

[Trulydestined]

Brian gave a warm smile to his old friend, "Thanks. I've been trying to work out." He said with pride.

"Yeah, with donuts.. Up! Chew! Down!" Patamon began to burst out laughing. Brian glared at Patamon with fire in his eyes. "Are you calling me fat?" Brian screamed showing some fangs.

Patamon began to panic, "No! I didn't mean to make it sound like that! I.. I.." Patamon then broke down and began crying. "Waaahhh! Please don't hit me on the head!"

Brian looked at Patamon confused, "Hit you on the head? I've never hit you before."

"Oh, it's a quote from a TV show I was watching last night." Patamon chuckled.

Brian formed his hand into a first and slammed it against Patamon's head. A tear hung from the little digimon's eyes. "That hurt.."

Brian gave a grin, "Now I did hit you.." Brian turned his attention to Mimi, "So did you enjoy New York? Was it nice? I wouldn't know since I'm from Miami, Florida."

[Lucario]

OOC: May I join?

[Trulydestined]

((ooc: We're on a plane. But we haven't left New York yet.))

[Mimi Tachikawa]

Mimi laughed as Brian and his partner joked with one another, their friendly banter was quite cute. Not wanting Brian to think she didn't notice his efforts to improve his strength, Mimi reached over and stroked his upper arm, as to get a sense of how strong he was. Exclaiming quite cheerfully, Mimi said, "Patamon, you do not give Brian half the credit he deserves, he obviously has been doing his best to try to improve his muscularity!" Smilling at Brian, Mimi patted Patamon on the head, so that he realized she was not trying to repremand his behavior toward Brian, but simply trying to boost Brian's self esteem, which in her mind Mimi would think that a boy as well off in personality and looks, he wouldn't have any trouble. Replying to his question about New York, Mimi said, "Well, it was somewhat a nice change of scenery, but a day didn't go by without me thinking of my old friends, and if they have forgotten me or not, I am a little nervous to come back though, what if their feelings toward me have changed?" She gave Brian a worried look, and looked away, not wanting to show that she was scared.[/size]

[Trulydestined]

Brian laid his hand onto Mimi's shoulder, "I'm sure they haven't forgotten you.. Friends don't forget friends so easily. And I'm sure they'll be super excited to see you again."

Brian gave a warm smile to his fellow Digidestined. Patamon looked up at Mimi, "Yeah, there is no way they could have forgotten you or your aw some taste for fashion."

Brian rolled his eyes, "He's got a point. You're the only true one with fashion."He complimented trying to cheer Mimi up. "C'mon Mimi, ya gotta cheer up."

[Mimi Tachikawa]

Listening to Brian and Patamon compliment her and tell her everything would work out, Mimi couldn't help but hug the two. As she embraced them, she said, "Oh, thank you so much, I mean although I am quite nervous, you two surely know how to cheer me up!" After holding the hug a little longer, Mimi thought to herself, Brian is so nice, he is going to make somebody really happy one day... Lost in her thoughts, Mimi began to realize that maybe she, herself, had been starting to develop feelings for Brian. No, this is the first time I have seen him in a long time, could I really fall for someone that easily? Mimi, again, thought to herself.[/size]

[Trulydestined]

Brian's face turned red from embarressment. "No problem Mimi, what are friends for?" A grim look came on the young Digidestined's face.

"I hope she knows I'm not looking for a relationship.." Brian continued hugging Mimi, feeling guilty. Feeling he maybe leading her on.

"Ewww, hugging! That's so gross!" Patamon screamed disgusted.

[Mimi Tachikawa]

Mimi giggled at Patamon, as he acted somewhat like a child. Picking Patamon up off of Brian's lap and giving him another hug, Mimi said, "I loovvvvve you, Patamon! I just want to hug you all day!" She knew she was tormenting the Digimon, seeing as he, for some reason, had a problem with physical contact. Placing Patamon back on Brian's lap, Mimi explained, "Sorry Patamon, I couldn't resist..." Still laughing a little bit at herself, Mimi flipped out her cell phone, to check the time. "It seems as though the plane should be taking off soon."

[Attention Passengers: We Will Now Begin Our Departure to Odaiba]

[/size]

[Trulydestined]

The two Digidestineds were on the flight to Odaiba, Japan. Brian looked around the plane looking for his mother, "Huh? I wonder where my mom could be. Maybe she is sitting somewhere else."

Patamon looked up at Brian with his big blue shimmering eyes, he then laid his head back into Brian's lap. Brian looked out the plane window with many things on his mind. "I wonder if we'll have adventures again.. Like old times."

Brian reached down into his pockets and pulled out his digivice and crest. He held onto his crest and digivice tightly. He leaned his head against the window and began to doze off, thinking about the old days. Before long he heard the announcement.

[We're now arriving at Odaiba Airport. Thank you for flying with us. We hope you had a pleasant flight.]

Brian opened his eyes as he heard the announcement. "We're almost there already?" He gave a loud yawn as he stretched his stiff arms. "We finally made it! I can't wait to see the others."

Patamon smiled as a thought of Gatomon came into his mind. "I can't wait to see the one I love.." Patamon sighed with love in his eyes and a stupid grin on his face. Brian looked at Patamon creep-ed out and disturbed.

[Mimi Tachikawa]

Mimi watched as Brian had slowly dozed off, and her eyelids had become quite heavy as well. Her thoughts flashed with images of her old friends over and over again, repeating past adventures that they had endured, even some obscure events. One of the main events she dreamed about was when the time herself, Mimi, crowned herself princess and took over a small village of Digimon.Dreaming about it now, Mimi subconsciously realized this as a major turning point in her life, she had finally realized that she should recognize the feelings of others, other than her own. Just as Mimi was reliving the part of the story when Palmon had told her she was a spoiled brat, Mimi's eyes quickly open as she heard an announcement and felt the movement of Brian next to her. Hearing what he said, Mimi asked, "Really, that is what they said? Wow! Time really does fly!" Mimi gave Brian a tired smile, it was finally time for her reunion with her old friends. Well, almost[/size]

[Trulydestined]

Brian watched the people on the plane form lines in the aisles. "This could take a while.." Before long a cell phone began to ring. Brian looked around expecting someone to pick their cell phone up. He then realized it was his cell phone ringing.

"Hello? Mom? Where you at? On your way to a meeting? Where were you the entire flight? In first class, chatting with a business partner.. I see. OK, leave the luggage. Someone is gonna pick them up and take it to our house.

Don't worry, I'll be taking my pack back with me. Yeah, I'll be fine. I'm not alone, I'm with an old friend. Mimi Tachikawa. Yeah, my friend from New York. OK mom, I'll talk to you later. Have fun at your meeting.. Buh bye." Brian closed his phone a bit disappointed.

Patamon looked up at his partner from his seat confused, "So we're on our own?" Brian shook his head, "No we're with Mimi, also this is great. We can probably go see our friends today! By the way Patamon, time to go back into the backpack."

Patamon's eyes filled with tears. The small digimon began to cry out loud. Brian began to panic hoping no one would look. "OK, OK. I'll hold you like if you were a teddy bear or hat." Patamon stopped crying instantly. "Yay!" the small digimon cheered.

Brian watches the lines grow smaller and smaller till there was enough room for Mimi and himself to grab their carry ons. "Ok Mimi, you're first. ;D
