[Okay explaining what is going on, you just tried to prove yourself through a fight and lost. Find another way to prove your awesomeness] Rebecca looked back to pandamon, then disappointedly to the boy whose face was resting under her boot. "It's not that I do not see any potential, you simply lack the presence to instill fear within my enemies," Rebecca took a breath before correcting herself,"Our enemies that is." The girl lifted her foot off the white-haired-prettyboy's face to take a step back and enjoy the scenery. Most secret meeting places were held in bars, or the middle of crowds while two secret agents awkwardly made out. In the digital world however, it was possible to pick such scenic locations as this without the worry of space lasers. Yes this all made sense in Rebecca's head. The attack on Network City had taken it's toll on her sanity. All those repressed emotions coming out at once, it would make any person a bit more eccentric. Evidenced by the giant panda that was now following behind Rebecca, in place of her normal partner Agumon. "Have you ever wondered why the beatles were such a sucess?" Rebecca questioned, approaching the boy who lay fallen on the ground. The forest around them was not as beautiful as Rebecca had once observed. Many of the trees had been uprooted, and the greenery burnt in their recent fight. Attacking the girl head on was not much of an option any more, she had gotten used to relying on ancientgreymon's power to vanquish her foes. In her hero days, Rebecca took pride in Omegamon, the lord of all knights. Now she rarely utilized Agumon's ability to take that form, preferring to summon a giant dragon to burn her foes into oblivion. The thought was rather disturbing. If Rebecca had time to think about it, instead her mind was wrapped up in her counterattack plans. She had definitely changed since Network city, and whether these were for the best only time would tell. "The beatles knew how to utilize there assets, they put the weakest link in the back. Will you end up in the back, like Ringo?" She asked, stepping on the boy's face once more. She was interested to see how the boy would react. Rebecca did not judge her peers on their fighting ability, rather their resolve.

Rebecca gave an exhausted sigh, so far nothing seperated this child from every other determined sap who wanted to make a hero of himself. Jumping straight into battle, making declarations of determination. Sure Rebecca partook in heroic activities from time to time, rambled on about dreams, but those were under fully aware of the irony. The girl who feared showing her true face to others was intrigued, what lay under the boy's determination. Fear, Strength, Darkness, Light, one could only know another's true face after they have smashed the mask covering. Rebecca had no choice, she would smash the mask. Rebecca flipped open her card case, drawing five cards in one elegant stroke. "We just started, you could at least come with better material," Rebecca exhaled, her boredom becoming more apparent. This was all to antagonize her opponent of course. Rebecca knew from past experience, those controlled by their anger were only weakened by it. "Something like, it's time to kick a** and chew bubble gum, or even a counter to my earlier ringo line, just 'Don't Count Me out,'" Rebecca was shaking her head, unconciously moving the five cards between her fingers as if about to pull off a trick. "How dull," Rebecca threw the cards at Toru, expecting him to catch them. "The terms are this, if you can defeat my Pandamon using only those five cards and your rookie form I will let you in. In the spirit of fair play, pandamon will only defend and counter," She explained the rules slowly, incase Toru was hard of hearing. In reality she was giving the boy time to analyze the cards. The first had a picture of a large hammer on it, the second a stone-skin effect, the third two guitars, the fourth an agumon using pepper breath and the final bore a hazard sign. This test would liven things up a bit, something Rebecca was desperately in need of. The magician had been in hiding since the Network City incident, if she were to ever build up forces for a counterattack it would start now. Pandamon took a step forward, an intense look on it's face. The digimon never said a word, but Rebecca understood him regardless. Even his odd taste for christmas hats.

"Trust. What an absurd concept. We're just rolling down the list of cliche's now are we not?" Rebecca was taunting, it was an actor's talent to provoke powerful emotions from their audience. The girl had become slightly enertained watching the boy, but there was still nothing to separate him from the others. The typical riff-raff that filled the digital world, all expecting to become the world's chosen hero. Instead they were all only tamers, those who held digimon without becoming digi-destined. There existed a wall which separated those who held digimon and those destined for greatness. A wall Rebecca had yet to cross. Rebecca could not help it, her mind tended to wander when it was not fully occupied. The strategy picked by her opponent was so basic. The girl would keep her word, Pandamon would only defend and counter. Still, she felt the urge to end this conflict before it could become duller. "There is one term I can afford thee Toru, thou art a villian," Rebecca recited, lacking her usual spark of intrigue. After uttering these words the girl decided it would be best to actual pay attention to her fight. The Toy digimon Freddy face was readying a fireball, if his engorged cheeks had any say of it. A rookie attack such as Pepper Breath would hardly scratch a digimon of Freddy's caliber. Then it was most likely Toru was attempting a combo. "Freddy, redirect a bamboo punch to the ground," Rebecca shouted, quick and concise. For the moment, she could not afford to taunt.
The panda digimon nodded, his expression deadpan. Freddy considered himself a man of few words. Some things were just too embarrassing to say. The bear would never admit he had joined Rebecca simply to be surrounded by other digimon which he could call friend, or his name was not actually Freddy. However fighting was something Freddy understood, it was in his nature. Since his birth he had been fighting to survive. Despite the human interference in the digital world, the overriding rule of survival of the fittest still lay in effect. Freddy could understand his trainer's intentions in this sort of exam. It was sink of swim. If Toyagumon could not perform, he had no other choice than erasing it. In the digital world those wishing to become heroes either stuck to their ideals and were erased, or chose to do evil and were glorified because of it. A lot of thoughts were racing through the normally silent bear's mind. In this time he had let the enemy execute his plan, and was now surrounded by an eerie smoke. Pandamon gathered a green aura around both of his claws. In one solid movement he raked his claws across the open soil, unleasing the bamboo fist. Underneath his feet a small grove of bamboo plants sprouted, launching him skyward. The smoke had yet to rise here, and Pandamon could make out his surroundings.
Rebecca smirked, hinting at some form of impressment. That is, encouragement for her Pandamon. Toru was still dull as ever. Yet to reach his potential as an old kung-fu master may say. Rebecca flexed her fingers, curling them around empty air. She had yet to reveal her digivice. It was too much of a risk, the colors of a digivice often revealed one's true nature. Rebecca did not trust this individual just yet. Now that she had a moment's reprieve she could not help but taunt yet again. "Toru, thou art a villian, but you lack the qualities of a true super villian. Tell me, if thou wishes to strike fear in the hearts of his enemies what is the key?"
Pandamon was wary of Toru's followup attack. There were only four cards left for the tamer to choose, and one of them would turn the tide quickly. Pandamon disliked losing, in the old digital world a loss meant total erasure. Digimon may reincarnate, but there old personality and memories would be lost forever. With the digivice, Pandamon was allowed a bit of room for error, but losing was still a dishonor. The digimon looked up to see Toyagumon falling down on him, carrying a rather large hammer. For once Freddy agreed with his tamer, what a dull choice. Quickly the pandamon broke off a peace of bamboo as a makeshift staff. In one stroke he slammed the staff onto the opposing hammer. His intentions was not to block the shot, but to redirect the energy causing enough friction for the hammer to fall out of Toyagumon's hands.

"Trust is nothing, it can be betrayed and shattered instantly. True partners do not rely on trust to fuel their relationships, they simply have faith in one another," Rebecca had crossed the line, she was no longer taunting. The girl did not appreciate being lectured on anything, especially trust. An issue she already has issues with. Rebecca had trust in her digimon, for sure, she just found the concept ridiculous. Absoloute trust in another was the furthest state from the truth, those who relied on others were only asking to be betrayed. Whether or not it was the mask, or Rebecca herself who thought this was yet to be seen. "Of course a child would have such naive concept of the world. It isn't until one feels true hardship that they begin to mature. This world is after all, sink or swim. . .' Rebecca stopped mid-rant to notice that the boy was now smiling, his digivice glowing. She smiled in turn, at least the boy had picked up something from her teachings.
Glee filled the girl as she watched the boy surround her Pandamon. This battle may have been a slow boil, but it was finally starting to heat up. That was a bit tortured. She thought, walking to where the boy had dropped the last unused card. Stone-skin, the battle was not completely lost yet. Though it was unorthodox for humans to fight alongside their digimon, utilizing the spirits of past one could harness the power to fuse human DNA and Data. It was a rather complex process. Rebecca had been experimenting with it quite a bit. The form Toru was in right now, it was a pure energy being on-par with agunimon. Unlike the flame spirit evolutions though, this form was highly unstable. Power fluctuated wildly, and it held a one use per card limit. Still Rebecca admired the boy somewhat, rashness and bravery were two seperate things. Rebecca scanned Stone-skin through her digivice,"DIGI-MODIFY!" Pandamon became unable to move, but his skin was as hard as rock. It would be interesting to see how her opponent responded to this.
