1. Something's wrong.
Something was wrong, and Kazu had known it for a while. He was the only digidestined who had their digimon back all the time. Sure, Takato had Guilmon for small amounts of time, and Ruki had renamon, but she wasn't exactly the 'stay at home' type. But he had Kapu (because Guardromon isn't exactly inconspicuous) with him always. They were practically joined at the hip (if Kapu had a hip, that is) just like Jen and Terriermon were back in the early days.
But something weird had happened recently. Gennai had contacted the digidestined, and had said something had changed in the digital world. He wasn't sure what it was, but now kazu knew for sure something was up. And Kapu was being affected.
Recently, Kazu had been wanting to re-digivolve Kapu into his Champion form; Gaurdromon, but try as he might, nothing was happening.
"Digimodify! Digivolution! Activate!" He swiped the card, and they waited. Kapu was straining, and Kazu's cousin ran over.
"Kaz? Kapu? Stop straining you guys, or you might mess yourselves!"
Kapu couldn't help but burst out laughing, however Kazu was not so impressed.
"Ammy! Can't you see we're busy?" the frustration he was feeling bleeding through into his speech. "Go away, just this once please?"
"No, I won't!" The young girl was stubborn, and ameratsu had become his only friend when he and his mother had lived with them. In short, she knew he needed her right now. She ran up and wrapped her arms around his waist, the fingers barely reaching. "I'm not letting go! You need to stop! Can't you see that it's not going to work?" She released her grip and looked up; "C'mon! I know you're not exactly smart, but really? I'm only 11, and even I can see there's something wrong here!"
He shot her look of mock disdain, then relented. "Okay, I guess you're right. I'm sorry, both of you. I just want... I don't know. Let's go grab some food, yeah?"
Later that night, Kazu was still disturbed. Ammy was busy bothering her mum about something, and he was still sat at the counter in the kitchen, with his D-Arc and digimon cards out in front of him. What was wrong? A familiar buzzing told him his cell phone was receiving something. He rummaged in his bag, pulling the buzzing phone out and checking what was up. It was from Gennai. Strange, as it was a text, and Gennai had no phone (He's just data himself, afterall) and definitely didn't have Kazu's number.
The Text simply read: "You need to send Kapu back to the digital world. It sounds like he needs to heal." It reminded Kazu of something Wallace said that he had to say to his digimon on a regular basis; "You have to give it time to heal", but eitherway, he knew Gennai was most likely right. He had sent Gen a message ove the internet a few days ago, but this was kinda unexpected. But it was prompting Kazu. He wanted to go back to the Digital world with Kapu. and if the by-product of sorting his evolution problems was a little while out from the real world, who was he to pass it up? Off to the digital world then, Kazu resolved. But in the morning, most definitely.
