Ch.1

"I'm home," Rika shut the door behind her and kicked off her shoes.

"Hello Rika!" her grandmother called from the kitchen.

Not bother to answer, Rika walked down the hallway to her room, unbuttoning her trench coat. I wish I could have stayed out there forever. Alone...

Rika shut her bedroom door and hung up her trench coat. Sitting cross-legged on her matress, she took out her ponytail and brushed her hair so it hung long and straight down to her shoulders.

After checking to make sure no one was looking, Rika padded over to her desk and reached underneath one of the drawers to get an inconspicous little book.

Brushing the dust off the front cover, she opened it, instinctivly turing to the right page. A page with a photo of Takato and a caption on it: 'Summer 2050'.

A wave of sadness rose up inside Rika and she pushed it back. God Rika, what wrong with you? she thought scornfully, You're becoming one of them...

"Renamon, come here," she commanded.

"Yes Rika?" Renamon appeared, crouched down, her svelte body tense, "What is it?"

"Slap me," Rika said coldly. Renamon opened her mouth to protest, but Rika insisted," Don't question, just do it."

"If you're sure..." Renamon lightly slapped her paw across Rika's cheek, "There."

Rika looked disappointed, "I know you can do better than that."

"Very well, if you insist..." Renamon smacked Rika hard across the face, leaving a red welt.

"Thanks. I needed that," Rika put on her coat and stalked outside, leaving Renamon standing alone, shocked.
