“Well uh.. glad you enjoy it,” he would then laugh as he sat beside the curled up Renamon, softly petting her while he finished his own portion

Long, drawn out sighs escaped Ike and Gazimon as they finished, the two leaning against each other as they held their stomachs, smiling. All that was missing was a disproportionately-sized belch.

According to the clock on his digivice, it was fifteen minutes later when Renamon began moving again. In a slow, fluid motion, she went from laying on her side to sitting on her knees, facing the group.

"Did I oversleep?" she asked, rubbing her eyes.

Alemana would give her a look as he then glanced at the clock.

“No, actually. You’ve barely been asleep half an hour. Aren’t you still tired?”

"It can wait," she said, taking her meal. "Right now, I need to see how the food turned out."

Her posture perfect, the vulpine sank her teeth into the fish, smiling as she chewed.

"Well done, Alemana," she mused. "You did a good job with the fish."

Alemana beamed at her, though he rubbed his arm bashfully

“I didn’t really do much.. it was mostly you!”

Renamon chuckled, setting down her kebab for a moment to try the chestnuts. Soft murmurings followed with every bite. And after she supped the coconut water, she gave her of approval.

Ike took the moment to chime in. "So where exactly are we going from here?" he asked. "Is it far away?"

Turning his attention to Ike, he would nod. “A little. We’re gonna be heading south-west from here. Hopefully though, this person got my message and we will meet them halfway. After that.. we’ll head to Kuku- Menehunemon’s place and plan out next moves there.”

"That's it? How'll we know if we pass 'em or not?"

"How did you find us in the tunnels?" asked Renamon. "The digivices seems able to communicate with each other in real-time. If we follow the signal, we should find whoever's holding the third digivice."

"Assumin' they ain't dropped it or got mugged," reasoned Gazimon.

Renamon's eyes narrowed on the chimera, scaring off further word from him.

“If they dropped it, they either didn’t know what they had.. or they got caught. Either way, we’ll never find them if that’s the case.

“But hopefully,” he then consulted the map to see if they had moved any.

*Rollz*

According to the digivice, the other tamer was roughly just under one and a half miles due south-west.

“They would make their way to us.” Alemana said with a big smile. “They’re only a mile and a half away! I say we should pack up and try to meet them.” He then looked at Renamon

“You feeling good enough to travel?”

And wonderingly, he would tap on their icon, hoping his digivice would be able to connect with the third kids device.

Tapping the screen, Alemana managed to bring up a window with video-feed. Unfortunately, it was the same blizzard of static white noise that had plagued him when trying to contact Ike.

"Always," mused the vulpine. "Just as soon as I've finished, we can go."

Gazimon's ears drooped. "Hey, uh, we're not walkin' the whole way... are we?"

He would stroke one of Rena’s ears in response. “Gotcha !” And he would look at Gazimon

“I dunno, can you fly?”

"Oh yeah, REAL funny," said the chimera. "Boss, can you believe this guy?"

"I dunno, Gaz," said Ike, the tamer leaning back with his arms behind his head. "Maybe if you digivolved, you could."

Gazimon gawped. "What's THAT supposed to mean?!" he said.

Ike slammed his hands down on his knees as he sat forward. "You heard me!" he said. "Digivolve! Show these losers what we're made of!"

"Bu-"

"How hard can it be?! You got in a good nap, right?"

"Well yeah, bu-"

"And you're stomach's full to burst, right?!"

"I mean I guess b-!"

"Then quit screwin' around and DIGIVOLVE!!"

Ike was already on his feet when he pumped his fists and settled into a rallying pose, the human looming over the now squirming Gazimon.

"C'mon, Gaz! Grow some wings and KICK SOME ASS!!"

Alemana would look at Renamon, a little concerned

“Hey.. I don’t think it works like that. You can’t force it I don’t think! It just has to happen naturally!”
