May 2000.
The Chosen Children give up the power of their Crests in order to free the Four Holy Beasts.
It was over. The digi-children walked with their digimons side by side, making up for the time apart. Taichi talked on and on, and so did Agumon. All the others spoke cheerfully, interrupted by Mimi's loud giggles, and walked towards the place where they had to say goodbye, once again. Byomon hold Sora tight and kept babbling her feelings for Sora, as always, who was fallowed by close by Matt and Takeru, who laughed at their uncontrollable happiness. Suddenly, the moment came, and Jennai appeared. The kids were all in a meadow, seated in a circle.
'Children' he said in his grave, tired voice 'I'm afraid you can't leave just yet.'
The regretful tone in his voice couldn't have been more innapropriate, since all the kids looked at each other with quick looks only to know they all agreed:
'It's fine! We'll stay a little longer!'
'That's not all, I'm afraid. There is still one thing left to do. You see...' The old man looked up like to see if an idea of how to break the news to them fell from the sky. 'Hmm... Well. There is one creature that has something we need... I mean... Kids.' He open his eyes like he never opened before. The kids all stepped back in amazement. 'There is something I am going to tell you that is very secret. Very secret indeed|'
'What is it?' Was Izzy quick question, naturally succeeding.
'That thing...we need... is not here.'
'Then where the hell is it?!' Taichi was short of patience, as always.
'It's in another world.'
The answer made them all opened their mouths in surprise except for Taichi.
'Alright, it's in our world. We'll get and it will be fine.'
Matt rolled his eyes. 'No, you dumbass...'
'It's in a world where we never beem before', was Hikari quick answer to her brother.
'What? That's...' Taichi looked at Izzy. 'That's impossible right?
Sora, seated next to Matt, intervened. 'Well, if there's the digi world, why shouldn't be another one? It's not that weird.'
They all looked at her. She seemed calm, but the worried look on her face wasn't fading. 'But do we have to go there?'
Jennai looked straight to them. 'Yes and no.'
Mimi broke suddenly: ' I don't want to! I want to go home! Two worlds are quite enough for me!' And looked around for more followers.
'I mean' said Jennai 'that I can't take all of you. Two will be enough... but I am note shure if it's safe.'
The expected sentence came.
' I will go' said Taichi. They all started to speak at same time. Agumon agreed with Taichi, Yamato said he would go to, Hikari and Takeru started to plee them not to, Izzy looked introspectively at the ground still digesting the information, and Joa and Mimi looked at each other in early panic, until Joe said that since he was the oldest he should go, but waited that someone stopped him.
'Stop all of you!' cried Sora. 'Nobody's going until Jennai finishes what he's saying. If it's really not safe, and I mean... it's worse then here, then what can we do?'
'Nonsense, Sora, nothing can be worse that a world full of monsters!' was Taichi's mocking answer.
'Oh, shut up!' said Matt. 'She's right. Let him finish.'
'Yes..hmm. I will...think this up more deeply. You see digimons can't go in there.' Jennai looked down. Takeru hold Patamon closer.
'Not even me... only you.'
Silence followed, until Hikari soft voice broke it:
'We're the chosen ones...in another world?'
'Well, they don't really need you... but they have something I need to retreve...'
'What's that?' Taichi asked.
'An egg.'
