5:18pm
As the Digital world becomes bit by bit under the
evil Digimon Emperor 's power the digidestined decided it that once and for all
the Digimon Emperor had to be defeated. The Digimon Emperor knowing that they
would come again created a plan that would ultimately destroy one of them.
As they entered the digital world they came into one of
the most desolate areas of the digital world. Surrounded by lush green forests
the, digidestined looked nervously around for a control spire. But so far there
was nothing but a forest of tall trees that covered the area created a canopy
that blocked nearly a third of the sunlight. " I don't see anything, Tai." Sora
yelled from the entrance of the forest. " Keep looking. It's got to be here
somewhere." "Well I for one think this
is a waste of time, its not as if the Digimon emperor is just going to show
himself to us," Davis muttered. Suddenly the group of kids heard an odd
stinging sound. As they each slowly turned around to look they discovered
Niraremon flying towards them. Unsuprisely it had a dark ring. " Run,"Tai
yelled as he ran deeper into the forest. " You don't have to tell me twice,"
Matt said as he hurried to catch up. "Actually Matt, he doesn't have to tell us
at all," Izzy breathlessly cried out. As the others ran through the forest the
roots and trees more than doubled, making their escape even harder. Quickly
glancing at Niraremon T.k did not notice the tree root that was that was before
him. In that instant Niraremon began to close the gap. As the digimon prepared
to attack with its dart wings t.k stood rooted to the ground still kneeling at
the root at where he had tripped. As t.k gave a terrified yell for help the
others could not or come fast enough being to deep in the forest. Add the dart
was fired somewhere very near him he heard sora cry,"noooooooooo. Using
herself as a shield she blocked the dart as it came narrowing closer. The other
kids ran back into the path and stood frightened unable to help. Bioyomon made
a spiral twister. Even the dart was diverged it still narrowed towards Sora
braising her skin by a small scratch barely visible as it hit he the tree
behind it. Suddenly communicating through the dark ring the emperor ordered
Niraremon to come back. "But why master, "asked wormon. "Because you
incompetent fool this is going to be a day they will never forget." Kent
cackled as he watched through the view screen.
"Hey that's strange Niraremon heading back off." Matt said. He's
probably got too afraid to face us," Davis said. As the others reached out help
Sora they asked if she was fine. "Yeah I'm okay. Barely a scratch." She said.
"How about you t.k." I'm fine except for thee fact that I was scared out of my
wits." t.k answered. "Nice to see you haven't lost your sense of humor." Kari
chuckled. As they headed off Sora collapsed to the grass. Sora," Tai yelled.
"What happened?"Matt inquired. "I
know," Izzy quietly called out. They all turned to him. Tai was kneeling on the
ground with Sora. " I was doing research on Niraremon and since his arrows are
covered with poison that aren't as poisonous to digimon as the are to us…"Izzy
drifted off. What izzy,"Tai asked,"I can take it." "That just the thing I don't
think you can." "Tell me." Tai said in a low voice knowing what was going to be
said. He needed to know for sure. What Izzy was about to say confirmed his
thoughts. "You see Tai, Sora doesn't
have much time left." No it can't be." Tai muttered. He picked up Sora and
seeing a small temple near by ran towards it. Inside laid a small tomb. He
gently laid Sora on the tomb and kneeled at her side. Tai grasped her palm in
both arms and whispered'" Don't leave. We need you Sora. We need you."
Tai continued to stay by her
side even as Matt entered the temple. Matt stood at the entrance pale as he
watched the scene. The other kids stood rooted to the crowd staring towards the
temple. The Digimon emperor .He must have the cure." T.k said. "We're Sora 's
only hope. And the Digimon emperor is the only one who's can save her. "There's
only one way to save her. From what my computer tells me the only cure is to
have a rare Enaramon's horn that only sheds after the digimon has fully
evolved," said Izzy. "Then let's go. We don't have any time to waste. Sora could
….."Davis trailed off. They all fell silent. T.k broke the silence.
"enough standing around we have to find the horn." they went off into the
deeper end of the forest. Hours passed by and still there was no sign of them.
Tai still kneeled at the tomb beside Sora even as the life began to
drain before him. Don't worry Sora they'll come. They'll come. Sora looked
straight ahead and slowly closed her eyes. "No Sora .no." Tai whispered. "You
can't." But even as he said this Sora 's hand went limp in his arms. Alone in
his pain he did not hear the noise behind him. Matt stood still staring at the
tomb. Tai. Tai. We found It We found it." Kari cried. "Enaramon let us have
it….." T.k slowed to a stop as he began to notice a change in the room. He glanced over at matt and for
the first time he saw tears. He had never seen his brother cry. Never. We can't
be too late. We just can't.
Then he looked over at Tai who still held on to Sora's hand. Not
believing that she had died. Everyone watched slowly as Sora was deleted.
quickly .So quickly. She couldn't be dead. She was apart of him. She was apart
of all of them. they stared at the empty tomb but nothing was there. Almost as
if Sora had never really left. Almost as if she had never died.
"You 're too late."Tai's voice
carried out through the silence. "If you had come sooner maybe she wouldn't be
dead." T.k bowed his head in silence
accepting the fact that if it wasn't for him…….. " Tai,"Matt said
quietly," we can't change anything. Stop blaming t.k. It wasn't his fault.
It was none of our faults. "Stop protecting him now. Maybe you should have
protected him sooner. Sora risked her life to save him. Which was exactly what
you should have been doing." "Tai calm down you can't change the fact that she
dead," he swallowed and continued," and there's nothing you can do to change
it." Tai stood with his clenched hands by his side. "That's what you think."
Tai rushed himself at matt and threw a heavy punch. Kari and T.k and the others
had seen Tai and Matt fight. But never like this. Each punch was truly meant to
hurt the other. "She's dead Tai. I know it hurts." "How do you know
the pain I'm feeling. How do any of you know." " We loved her too. You weren't
the only one." Tai looking at Matt through his tears got up and looked at the
other kids. "Its true Tai you aren't the only one."kari said as she wiped a
tear from her face. Tai bowed his head
as he sank to his knees knowing it was truth. Matt stood up and looked at Tai's
huddled figure. Tai had always been the leader of the digidestined and
now…….Suddenly he saw Tai stand up and
run into the temple. Everyone rushed after him. He began to pound his hand on
the tomb. His hand and his face were filled with small braises and bruised. But
even so Tai did not seem to notice. They all waited. Motionless. Tai fell down
to his knees. Tai '"Kari asked. "Are you okay? Tai wiped his face with his
sleeve. He stood and turned towards them. "There's only one thing left to do
and that get the Digimon emperor." Tai. No. Not revenge." Kari said. "No .not
for.revenge. For answers.

Read the next installment. "The Capture of the
Digimon Emperor"
How will they all react to the
Digimon Emperor .The same one who tried to capture their Digimon. And the one
who's responsible for Sora's death. . And who would appear and is Sora lost
forever or can the Digidestined find away to bring her back
Chapter Two
The Capture of the Digimon
Emperor
They all gathered around Davis
as he talked. "We launch a full attack. We can't afford for any one else to get
hurt." "We spit into groups. Tai, you and Matt lead the others into the Digimon
Emperor's Headquarters while I provide a diversion. We all meet at half way
through the forest near the lake. They headed off. Soon they were at the most
powerful Control spire, which is the same one that the Digimon Emperor
hides. " The Digimon Emperor unprepared
for the attack was taken by surprise or so the digidestined thought. As the
Davis Kari t.k and yolei came to lead a diversion, they found to their own
surprise that there was nothing. There were no digimon in sight not even
guards. And neither was the Digimon emperor. "Do you think he gave up?" Yolei
asked. "No. He wouldn't give up this easily. He's got something up his sleeve.
He wouldn't live the control spire unprotected unless……" "Unless what?"Kari
asked. Suddenly there was a sudden roar. "Unless that," T.k cried out as the sudden appearance of many digimon
trailed towards them. It is time for me to digivolve, Davis. "Go get them."
Davis yelled. T.k, Kari, and Yolei nodded at their digimon. They all armor digivolved
into framedramon, Pegeusmon, Nertirmon, and Halsemon. Together they all stood
facing the increasing amount of digimon.
Tai Matt Izzy and Cody all
wondered how they were going to go in without being seen. "According to my
calculations on my computer there's a door out there. But its being guarded by
Pagumon. " We can take them Tai. "I know but we might tip off the emperor."
"Tai's right we can't take that chance." Izzy said. "Now coming to real
question .How are we going to get in." Cody asked. "I can help you," a voice
said. "Wormon,"they all said in surprise. Wormon appeared from the shadows.
"You why would you want to help us?" Tai asked. This all too dangerous and
Ken might get hurt. At least with you I know he will be safe. "Alright," Matt
said. As soon as wormon was at the entrance matt whispered to them," Can
we trust him?" "We don't have any other choice." Cody said as they all
glanced towards wormon. Passing over the sleeping digimon, it became apparent
how wormon had accomplished his part of the bargain. Wormon had given the
digimon a food that was layered with sleeping mediation. Afterwards he broke
the dark rings. You head up that hall and Ken is in there." "Wait. Aren't you
coming with us," Cody asked curiously. "No,"wormon replied quietly," The
digimon emperor is very dangerous. And some things are better left
unknown." They watched as wormon
disappeared down a doorway. As they walked they finally came to a stop at a
door. "This is it," Tai said. He hesitantly put his hand on the door and opened
it. It wasn't locked. Obviously if you were an emperor with Ken's power there
wouldn't be a need for a lock. As quietly as they could they entered the small
room. The digimon emperor knowing they were there sent to defeat them. Tai knew
that if Agumon could digivolve he destroy them. Unfortunately the only digimon
that could digivolve was Amadilamon. Cody nodded at him and he armor digivolved
into Digmon. That isn't going to be enough,"Tai thought.
Suddenly out in the corner of his eyes he noticed the dark digivice. As long as
the Digimon emperor has the dark digivice he will control every things. That is
if he has it. Tai knew the emperor would not give it to him voluntarily. Matt
noticing the same nodded at Tai. Tai and Matt quietly crept up unnoticeably to
the emperor. As soon as as they were close enough in range they grabbed the
emperor. Ken being athlete himself was nothing short of being strong. He
roughly pushed Tai and Matt as they fought for control of the dark digivice. As
both boys knocked the control out of his hand. It slid across the floor into
the shadows. At last the digimon Emperor was defeated. Matt roughly held Ken's
hands back as they stood up. But now that they have finally Digimon Emperor
what were they going to do with him.
As the rest of the
digidestined met up they found to their amazement the Emperor who had once
controlled almost everything in the digital world, now helpless and tied to a
tree. Near him were Tai Matt Izzy and
Cody gathered around a small campfire. As they all neared the campfire.
Suddenly they noticed a metal beam slowly rise to the surface. In it was a face
they hadn't seen a along time. Gennai. Gennai stood exactly as they remembered.
Tai's fist clenched my his sides and he angrily yelled." Why come to us now
Gennai. You knew Sora was going to die didn't you. Why did you let her die."
Gennai said nothing and curiously Izzy wondered why. Doesn't he have anything
to say in his defense or is Tai actually right." Gennai calmly replied," I couldn't contact you because of the
Digimon Emperor 's control. There is only one way to bring your friend Sora
back and if you follow the stairs it will lead you to my home. As he bent down
to turn off the transmission he said "oh and don't forget to bring Ken with
you. The transmission turned off and slowly sank into its place in the ground.
As unusual the water broke apart to reveal a staircase. They untied Ken and
lead him down the stairs. As they entered the beatiful garden they looked
around in amazement. All except for Tai who clutched the rope that painfully
tied up the emperor. Quickly Tai took the remainder of the rope and tied the
emperor once again to a tree. Gennai appeared and welcomed them. Tai tried to remained calm and did so
through out the entire evening. Nearly. They mostly ate in silence but talked a
bit about what they did since four years ago. Tai said nothing. Just ate in
silence. During the dinner none noticed as Yolei left with an extra bowl of
food. Yolei walk through the door and head straight towards Ken. "What do you
want,"he crossly asked. "Here I just wanted to give you this," she
said as she held out the bowl and settled it into a place into the grass. "I
don't need it. Go away." He turned his head away. Yolei's eyes welled up with
tears. She tried not to cry .she wouldn't let him have the satisfaction of
knowing he made her cry. Even so a tear ran down her cheek as she hurriedly
wiped it with her sleeve. She walked off into the relatively large forest. Kari
being the closest towards the door noticed the scene. She stepped outside and
headed out towards the path where Yolei last was. Not far off she saw Yolei
sitting at a pond staring out at something. Yolei turned her head as Kari
walked towards her. Kari sat down next to her and asked," What's wrong?" I
don't know to what think anymore. Every thing's changed. She said she would
always said she'd be there. She said we'd be friends forever." She was trying
hard not to cry but still tears ran down her face. She didn't bother to wipe
them off but instead continued to look solemnly at the pond "We'll get her back
I promise." "Kari." What is it Yolei" "Don't make promises you can't keep." we
will get her back. I mean it. And to prove it. Here have this you can give it
back to me when we get Sora back. Until then you were it Kari took off the tag
that she wore around her neck and handed to Yolei. ."Kari."" what is it Yolei?"
"Thanks." " Anytime Yolei. We better be getting back. The others must
be worried." "Okay. Hope they don't send in the cavalry." Yolei gave a wry
smile as she wiped her face with her sleeve.
As soon as they entered
through Gennai's front house they noticed a sudden change in, at first light
mood, in the house. Tai stood up and said," How can we get her back. I sick of
waiting." Tai was standing up with his hand clenched at his side. "Tai calm
down, , " Gennai said exasperated. " I know your 're worried about her but
trying to beat it out of me won't help." " I'm sorry Gennai." Tai said as he
bowed." I'm a bit stressed out." Tai sat back down as Gennai raised a hand to
signal for he was about to say something important and for silence. It was
unnecessary to silence since they were already quiet by Tai's earlier
outburst. " There's only one way to bring
her back and that is to......" Throughtout the entire talk Gennai did not
mention Sora's name, as it would be too painful to even say it. Or maybe it was
just, maybe better off until they got her back. Later that night as they got ready for bed Izzy yelled to Tai,
"Do you think what Gennai said is true." "Yeah. We'll find out tomorrow at the
Digimon emperor's control spire." Then they both went to sleep. At about mid night t.k began to toss and
turn. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. "No I'm sorry. I never meant to
….." Suddenly t.k jumped up in bed. Breathly deeply he decided to get some air
outside near the lake. Kari awoke to see him get up and wondered what it was to
make him get up so late in the night. T.k settle by the lake. Kari got up and
walked towards him. He didn't seem to notice her even as she sat down. "T.k are
you okay?" " I keep on seeing it over and over. I see Sora's face and
everyone's else's and they're all there saying it." "What do they say T.k."
Kari asked." They say I'm responsible. That it's because of me, that Sora 's
dead because of me. In my dreams I see her and she just says its my fault. She
just kept repeating it. Then I remember her face the moment before she died.
How empty her face looked….." "That's not true."" Yes it is. Tai does." "Tai doesn't blame you. Tai. He
taking it the hardest of all of us. But you see you can't change the past any
more than I can." "T.k turned his head." "How can you be so sure." You heard what Gennai said. Please have hope
T.k. Without your hope where would we be." T.k still stared out at the lake.
Knowing he needed time to think she got up and headed back towards the house
she turned around and said. . You aren't responsible for what happened. don't
blame yourself t.k. If I don't, why should you."? Kari went back into the house
back to sleep. T.k stared at the lake so hard that he feel into a deep sleep
right beside the lake itself. At that very moment the Digimon emperor untied
the ropes and made his escape.
To be
continued …….. The Digimon Emperor has escaped. Where will he go? Will they get
Sora back? If so how. And if they fail will there be another way to save her.

Chapter
Three
Sora's
Return
The Digimon emperor being a
great athlete held his breath long enough to swim back to shore where hi
received help from the digimon Wormon. Now the digidestined prepare to go to
get their friend Sora back from permanent deletion.
Tai impatiently waited for the
others to finish their breakfast. He argued that they should hurry and get it
overwith Izzy said that it would be remotely impossible to achieve their goal
if they didn't prepare themselves for it. As soon as they were done Tai made a
long run to the spire. At last they were there. They went inside. If Gennai is
correct then Sora being computer data can be transformed back into herself
again. All they needed was the technology, which brings in the control spire.
Thanks to ken it had enough power to bring Sora back. After wards they would
destroy it hopefully ending the emperor's control. They easily walked into the
spire without any trouble as they headed to its main control room they did not
notice the Digimon emperor behind them. When they finally entered the room Izzy
set to work. The night before after Tai's last and most t recent outburst
Gennai told them that if they could enter the spire and have enough energy to
power it up she would be able to bring
her back. Sora's digital image began to appear. Suddenly out of the shadows the
Digimon emperor came at them. He headed for Izzy. there was something very
important on that system's memory banks and he knew that if allowed to go on
they destroy it, after Sora returned. He couldn't let that happen. He shoved a
surprised Izzy out of the way. Sora's
image disappeared as the emperor worked
to save the files. Without them noticing he took a disk and hid it up his
sleeve. Tai being shocked at the emperor's appearance. Quickly realizing the
Digimon emperor was trying to stop Sora from coming back launched himself at
the emperor while a second later
telling Izzy to go and get a move on it. Tai punched the emperor again and
again. The emperor didn't make a sound even as Tai's clenched fist connected
with his face. It was strange that he didn't retaliate. But the kids were
focused on the other side the room. Sora's image reappeared and in a split second she was there again. Every thing went silent almost like the
world stopped. A voice she called out,' Tai." As Tai stopped and stood he faced
the group. In unison they group of kids split into two. Each on one side of
Sora. Izzy off to her right breathed asigh of relief. It was finally over."
"Sora," Tai asked in shock as she got up and wearily walked towards
him. "I guess it's harder to be deleted and redownloaded than people say it is.
You up for a soccer game Tai." She asked. "I think so, but the last few days
are being to take their toll." He said. They all laughed not noticing as the
Digimon emperor head towards a secret room. As he silently closed the door he
took out the disk. " It a good thing this was still intact. It's the only thing
I have left that can defeat the
digidestined. Without it my control of the digital world will always be
questioned.

Dear readers,
I hope you enjoyed my story. Unfortunately it had changes to the
