Silence

Shadow- "First off, I'd like to say to Dragonrider04: Ha-ha! Missed! Oh, and to everyone else: Finally! Last part of the series! YAY!!!!"

Renamon- "I don't think that table is meant for jumping on..."

Shadow- "Why not?"

Renamon- "...it's made of glass..."

Shadow- "Oh. Well, that explains the blood. ...and the pain. No, wait, that's just from crew practice. Never mind.

Anyways...

Welcome to the start of part ten! The last part! To new readers, welcome! And to old readers, welcome back! If you haven't read part one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine of my story (The Coming Sunset, Nightfall, Through the Darkness, Road to Dawn, Mainframe, Dark Worlds, Hidden World, Reverse/Rebirth, and The Citadel), please go to my profile page, and read those first. Or else this part won't make any sense to you whatsoever.

And to long-time readers: Thank you for reading this far! The story contiues exactly where it left off, so long you'll feel right at home. (Or at least as at home as it's possible in this bundle of insanity I call a storyline) Enjoy this chapter!"

Renamon- "How many times did you insult your self during that?"

Shadow- "I dunn... blood loss... getting woozy..." (loud thunking sound)

Renamon- "Um... are you-"

Shadow- "Yes! ...sorta..."

Renamon- "Okay... Shadow does not own digimon."

Shadow- "Review when finished!" (passes out)

Renamon- "Okay, I'm getting help..."

real world, tamers

The house was quiet.

The faint, familiar hum of the fridge, the buzzing of a clock, which read 5:59, and the muffled sound of a television next door gave the room its only ambiance.

The sun was visible setting through the window, the shades partially open.

The front door opened, and a goggle-wearing boy walked in. He quickly shut the door.

The television snapped on. Repetitive music sounded for a few seconds, and an announcer broke in.

"Welcome... to the six o'clock news."

The announcer continued as the boy opened the fridge, and shut it again. He opened a soda, then the tv was the only sound again.

"This evening's top story... the war in the middle east has come to a surprising halt... With a live report from the battlefield is our main reporter, Elizabeth. Liz?"

"Thank you, Tom. A battle raging for the past several days has come to a strange end... at least for now. The combatants continued shooting at each other, but... even when hit, nothing happened. A few soldiers, once they realized this, turned their guns on themselves... with the same effect. Some have just sat down in bewilderment, but others are-"

A body whizzed down in front of the camera. The reporter screamed. After a moment, the person got up, laughed, and ran off. The reporter picked up her mike and continued.

"Others are... testing this out more thoroughly... as you just saw there..."

The main anchor cut in. "I'm afraid we're going to have to cut in there, Liz... there's a lot of other odd things we have to get to."

The camera cut back to the desk, and the anchor started speaking again. "Hospitals tonight are completely empty, as even the most critical patients have sudden been cured. The staff are baffled at this turn of events... and are wondering whether they'll still have a job."

"Of course, there are many other things going on... but they're all along the same lines. What seems more important now... is exactly what is causing this. Several organizations have claimed responsibility..."

A group of priests filled the screen. "This is one of the events described in the end times! Repent, sinners, for the judgement of our lord is at hand!"

Next, a scientist came on. "Now, what we believe is the key to all this, is the fact the astronomers have noticed that the earth seems to have teleported somehow to a point further along its orbit. Now, we theorize that the current disturbances people are experiencing may just be temporary effects of this 'quantum leap', as we're calling it. Now, this 'leap' appears to have occurred instantaneously, and was undetectable to all our instrument. What's really curious is that our moon, satellites, and even the other planets have also jumped. When correlated wi-"

The man was pushed off screen by a man wearing sunglasses. He held a lighter in his left hand. "Listen, you idiot! Time was affected! It has something to do with the disturbances we've been seeing in the digital world, I'm sure of it! Now ju-"

Two security officers pulled the man off screen. A fight could be heard. Something broke.

The tv snapped off. The boy took off his goggles, and sighed.

Takato... you've really done it this time...

real world

Izzy snapped on his computer. He scrolled through his programs, found the digiport, and booted it up.

The image of four digital worlds formed. Izzy shook his head. None of them had any large structure on it.

"Okay... so all four worlds are back..."

He frowned. "Which doesn't explain all that's happening..."

He sighed. "It has to be related to what happened to Koichi, Justin, Erika, and Carrie... and Kari and Kouji..."

He backed the program up, and searched the data it had recorded in the spire. "Battle... stairs... battle... stairs... battle... door..." he whispered, watching it play back. The battle with Sacrosamon played, finished, and then the video skipped, went to black for a fraction of a second, then continued.

He clicked a key, and squinted at the screen. "Hold on..."

He backed up, to the video fault. Black filled the screen, with red words in the center.

Izzy stared at it for a moment, then shook his head. He snapped a photo with his phone, and hurried off.

The computer screen stayed on, the words frozen on it.

Darkness and Shadows may be gone

But that is not eternal

Revive the four, regain the two

And the world is back to normal

A clue, the diviner of the way
