TAKERU;

[zerotohiro]

[continued from here]

[He's watching all right, and he sees what that vendor's doing.]

Dude come on, he's just a kid! [The vendor's not impressed with Hiro's response though and soon a baseball's thrown and hits him in the chest.] Ow, hey! [He looks back at Takeru again.] Throw it harder this time!

[cresthopes]

You shouldn't do that! I don't think you would like it if someone knew you a baseball too!

[Although, he knew that all his arguing wasn't going to work. As he knew the ball, this definitely threw it much harder! But he had to admit, with the vendor not treating Hiro the right way?

Well, hope said vendor likes big unhappy pouts from the smaller boy!]

[zerotohiro]

[The vendor's not really impressed with the pout. Sorry, Takeru. But that gives Hiro an idea and he looks down at Takeru, leaning as far as he can (which isn't too far...) At least the vendor's distracted with a new customer for a few moments.]

I know you're probably not gonna like this, but I have an idea. What if you threw the baseballs at him?

[cresthopes]

[Just as Takeru was about to use the last of his baseball to give it his all? He suddenly stopped himself midway through before giving Hiro a certain look]

You really think that's a good idea? What if he doesn't like it? Or what if he makes you stay there even longer?

[And get you into more trouble???]

[zerotohiro]

Then we'll come up with another plan. [Hopefully.] Don't you trust me?

[cresthopes]

Yeah, I do but...wouldn't it make things even more bad if I threw it at him?

[he's got a very very bad feeling about this!!]

[zerotohiro]

What's the worst that could happen?

[cresthopes]

I don't know, I think he could make you stay there for a even longer period of time! Or what if he decides that he'll never let you go?

[Even if he really did want to throw it at the vendor's face]

[zerotohiro]

...that's a good point. [He really doesn't feel like staying up here forever.] But we're not making progress playing by the rules either. You got a better idea?

[cresthopes]

Well, no, not really? But I don't know any other way to get you down!

[Although, now that he thought about it?]

Maybe you can just walk down? If he's not looking, then you can jump off! That should work right?

[zerotohiro]

No can do. I'm actually kinda tied to the stand. [Hooked, even.]

...hey Takeru. Quick question. [Idea! Absolutely brilliant idea!] How strong is Patamon?

[cresthopes]

Awww man, now that's just not fair! And maybe even meaner than before!

[Seriously, who ties a kid down anyway? But as the blond looked back at Patamon? The potato just gave Hiro a curious look]

Well, I never tried to pull someone off before when they're tied! But I could give it a try! There would be a place where I can unhook you or something!

[zerotohiro]

If you two could unhook me, I should be able to untie myself. [A beat.] If we can distract the vendor long enough, too. Luckily he seems pretty slow on the uptake. What do you think? One more plan and see if it works?

[cresthopes]

I think it might! But I think I might have to distract the vendor though...

[Takeru said before looking back at him and at the vendor.] It's not too badly hooked is it? Maybe Patamon might be able to unhook it by himself?

[zerotohiro]

If Patamon can lift, it should be okay. I can do the rest. You've just gotta keep the vendor busy for a few minutes. Think you can handle that?

[cresthopes]

Yeah I think I can!

[Without another moment to lose, Takeru immediately went to the vendor and started talking to him! At the same time though, Patamon was looking through to see where the hook was]

By the way...you're not really heavy are you...?

[What, it's real question! He wanted to know if he can lift him!]

[zerotohiro]

Dude, what kind of question is that? It should be fine, just lift! I'll do the rest. [He's keeping an eye on Takeru to make sure the boy keeps the vendor busy. They don't have too much time to buy.]

[cresthopes]

[As the boy just kept on asking random question after random question (and making the vendor really pissed off), Patamon didn't waste any time! Trying his best to look around and untie the hook, he just quickly looked back at Hiro.

While he didn’t say anything, the look on his face might as well wish him the best of luck with the rest!]
