Digimon Academy

(Today's lucky language was Chinese! I did use Google translate for it so... yeah... sorry. Also read to when they got onto the boat to make sense of today's chapter)

Crescent stepped off the boat and said his goodbyes.

"So... It's just you and me?" Night said.

"Yep..." Crescent replied dryly.

a little while later Night got done with all his shopping.

"So. What are you going to get?" Night asked, dryly.

"I know you hate me, but jeez... If we're stuck together for the next... 3 hours or so, you could atleast act like you enjoy it." Crescent said.

"Fine..." Night sighed.

"What's your problem with me anyways??" Crescent asked.

"It's.... Essence. I just want to make sure she doesn't get hurt, even if it means I need to be critical about everything she does. I honestly don't know what I'd do without her. She means the world to me. If she wasn't there... I'd honestly see nothing of worth in this world anymore... And you make her so happy, I just want to make sure you don't hurt her, emotionally or physically. She's never had any friends like you since we moved from Cloudsdale." Night said.

Crescent didn't know what to say. There was a long and awkward silence between them as they walked to the next shop.

Crescent cleared his throat and said "Well, I should get ditzy something... I've already finished my shopping last week... And maybe something for the digimon to share, y'know like a game or something... I know nightfury doesn't care."

"Yeah..." Night said, chuckling a bit.

"I bet if you put that problem behind you, we could be pretty good friends."

"I guess... But... I'll think on it... When Essence is safe, then I can relax."

The two were found later at a pastery shop, getting something to eat before they left to get ditzy a present.

"What do you Ditzy would like?" Crescent asked.

"Bubbles? It's her cutie mark... But at breakfast the other day, I saw her devouring all the muffins. Maybe we should get her some muffin mix so she can make her own?" Night suggested.

"I think they sold some here. I'll go check." Crescent said.

He got up and walked into the store. Turns out that they did sell some of their homemade muffin mix. He picked it up and tossed a few bits on the counter and left.

"Got it. We better get back, otherwise the other's might see the presents." Crescent said.

Night nodded.

When they got back to the academy they made sure they weren't being followed by anypony.

"Clear." Night said, opening the door to their dorm.

The two ran in and quickly closed the door. Crescent pulled out some wrapping paper and tape from his saddle bags and put down some presents.

"Ok, I'll start with this and you can do this, ok?" Crescent said to Nightfury, gesturing to each item.

"Got it." Nightfury said, and started to wrap a box of cookies.

Night looked at him.

"What? It's for Draco. He loves those cookies and they only sell them around this time." Crescent explained.

"Ok... I guess..." Night said, wrapping a present.

"So have you put that thing behind you?" Crescent asked.

"More or less." Night replied.

"Ok, now what did I miss? I swear Crescent, You need to fill me in more often..." Nightfury said, shaking his head.

The group shared a laugh after that as they ended a delightful day.
