With DemiVeemon sitting ontop of his head Leon held the digiegg he was given close to his chest. As they got out of the portal Leon's phone quickly buzzed. Taking it out and noticing it was a video chat be The Love Flame the digidestined quickly turned on the facetime. And it was, of course, EmperorGreymon. "Seriously?! Not two minutes?!" Leon partially yelled at the phone in annoyance. A small silence quickly followed. "... I was just checking to make sure your entire group made it through successfully. No need to get snippy." the Red Knight huffed at Leon. With an aggravated groan Leon gave the phone to DemiVeemon on his head. "Don't run my data up too much with the calls, alright? I know I said you could keep in touch through my phone but I'm not paying a huge bill just for one of your heterodigital life partners." With a few departing words from Lucas and giving a quick nod back Leon once again turned his attention back to the egg for a moment, wondering how he was going to keep it safe over the next day, or any time a mission would take them away. [i]Then again Veemon's egg hatched five seconds after seeing me. But this one is actually physical this time[/i], Leon thought to himself before Jordan came over to talk. "Hmm?" Leon said, not hearing him right for a moment. Then it clicked that Jordan may not have been around for the full update of what was in store for the next day. "Oh. Yeah. That fun picnic. Me and Lucas, along with Vee and Leomon are doing a quick stealth operation tomorrow on someone whose been genetically altering Digimon, making some type of fusion mega. Since we've been gone for a bit we don't want to lose any element of surprise and have to worry about the Mega, or Super Mega or whatever it is now, coming back and..." Leon rubbed the back of his neck out of worry. "Well, I guess the sum up is tomorrow might be a rough day. I'd be on guard in the afternoon. If you see explosions mid-city, come a-running. Oh!" Leon fished around what was left of his pack for one of the few things he always kept at the bottom: a business card. Handing one over to Jordan he laughed lightly. "God I remember making those when I was training kids in Tae Kwon Do. No real need for them anymore I guess. That's just in case you want to reach me." he said with a shrug. "We're gonna head home now. Need to get some rest. And food." Turning to see the rest, including Elle, he gave a general wave to them all. "See ya guys. I'm sure if tomorrow goes south I'll be seeing you all reaaaaal soon." he muttered the last part to himself. --- "Okay, you hang up first." "No, YOU hang up first!" "Nooo, yo-" the little back and forth was interrupted by Leon grabbing his phone just as they got to his apartment. "Twenty. Minutes. You two talked my ear off for twenty freakin' minutes." Leon said through gritted teeth as he picked up his key from under the mat, having placed it there before they left a week ago. "Hey, we would have been alright if you didn't go through that marketplace!" "You said you wanted fruit! Anything fruit related here would have been rotten by now." Leon countered, putting the bag of apples and plums on the table. Heading over to the pantry Leon began to take out all the different things he could find: pasta, sauces, jerky, a chocolate bar along with a six pack of warm water. He next went to the freezer and found his emergency frozen supplies he packed before they left: pork chops and bacon. Along with a few other ingredients from the fridge Leon began to do a bit of cooking while eating some jerky as he went. While that went on DemiVeemon turned on the TV to the local news and digivolved into Veemon as he dove onto the couch. Holding the Digiegg in his lap Veemon stroked a nail against the gold band that went around the center of it as he watched the TV. --- Forty minutes later Leon and Veemon laid on the floor surrounded by dirty plates. "Urgh..." Veemon said. "Agreed."
