"Mmm.. Wha..What's going on. Agumon?" Taichi Yagami opened his eyes and stared at a cloudless blue sky. "Shit! I was supposed to stay awake!" He jumped up, expecting Yamato to come and let him have it. However, all Taichi saw was Agumon spread out on the ground a few meters away from him. Slowly, the memories of the previous night trickled back into his head. Then finally, the whole event seemingly slapped him in the face.
"Agumon!" Taichi ran over to where his friend lay still. "Wake up! Wake up!" Images of Sora and Hikari's faces as they fell to the ground flashed through his mind as he madly shook the digimon. "Wake up Agumon, wake up!" However, he didn't budge.
Taichi stumbled back. He dug his face into his hands and sat on the ground, waiting for something to happen. However, nothing would. He mustered up the courage to look around and saw nothing. His friends were gone. The place where they had slept was now empty and lifeless. Taichi could still see the imprints in the sand of where they all slept. He stopped at the place where his sister had been laying only a few hours ago. Or was it only a few hours ago? The boy had lost track of time. He didn't even know how long he'd been asleep for.
He reached behind his head to feel a rather large bump that had appeared. He rubbed it gently, but it swelled at the touch. He grimaced from the pain, both from his injuries and from his inability to comprehend why this new digimon would take his friends and not him. Sora.. Hikari.. Had Wargreymon gotten to them in time? And how come Wargreymon wasn't able to defeat this evil? He just hoped with all his heart that his friends were alright. Taichi smacked his clenched fist against the ground. If Anzamon layed one finger on Hikari, he wouldn't live to see another day. And poor Takeru.. The youngest one in the group could be all alone. Maybe Jyou or Yamato was with him. Taichi could only hope.
The boy heard someone mumbling behind him and turned around to find Agumon slowly standing up.
"Agumon!" Taichi jumped up and ran over to him. "You're alright!"
Agumon stared at the boy, confused. "Yeah I'm fine.. What happened?"
Taichi's heart sank. "You don't remember?" The hope he had of finding out what exactly happened to Sora and his sister disappeared with that question. He quickly focused his anger on Agumon. "How could you not remember?!"
The digimon was taken aback. "I'm sorry Taichi, I don't remember anything.. all I remember is fighting, then, nothing.. I'm sorry, I should have fought harder."
Taichi quickly censored himself. "It's alright Agumon, you did your best, but, you don't remember what happened to our friends?"
Agumon looked around. For the first time, he realized that everyone was gone. It was only him and Taichi. What were they going to do? He stood up and faced his friend. "Taichi, I'm sorry.. We'll find them!"
The lack of an answer saddened Taichi even more. "And where are we going to start looking? We don't even know who took them! Or if they were even taken at all.."
"They had to be, Taichi!" Agumon retaliated. "I don't remember much from last night, but I do remember that Digimon.."
"That digimon.." Taichi grasped his chin with his thumb and forefinger. "His name.. what was his name?"
"Anzamon?" Agumon said, not quite sure. "I think it was something like that.."
"Yeah, that sounds right." Taichi sat down on a log close to him, followed by his friend. "I can't remember though.. this bump on the head really did it for me.. Where's Jyou and his medical skills when you really need him?"
"We'll find him." Agumon put one of his rather large claws against Taichi's back. "Come on, we'll start looking now! It's no use just sitting here..
The boy thought for a moment. His digimon had a point. Sitting here, they were just sitting ducks. Anzamon could come back and attack them at any moment. Then again, they had no idea where they were going. Where were they even supposed to start? Taichi opened his mouth to question his digimon's motives, but then an image flashed into his mind. His face went white as he remembered the look on his sisters face as she'd shouted for Wargreymon to let her die. He then remembered the look on Sora's face as she was held up in the air. The look of worry engulfed her as she shouted that Hikari was wrong. He then thought of them both falling to the ground, after he was unable to pick one to live.
Taichi dug his fingers into the wet wood before turning to his digimon once again. "Agumon.. You'll do this with me?" His eyes were hidden as he looked down, his locks of hair blocking the sunlight from hitting the top half of his face.
"Of course.." Agumon said, uncertain of what Taichi would say next.
"Alright. We're in this together, it's us against whatever's out there. That bastard took our friends.. He took Hikari.. He took Yamato.. He could've killed them.." The last couple words sucked the air out of Taichi's lungs. That couldn't be true, no, of course not. They were the digidestined. They were the heroes. The heroes never died. "Agumon, do you think you got to them in time? Do you think they're at least.. alive?"
The digimon looked straight at the boy. "Taichi, I was Wargreymon, how couldn't I have?"
The confidence in Agumon's voice made the boy feel a bit better. Together, they stood up and left the campsite. Taichi looked behind him as they walked away, back at the spots left in the ground, back at the broken branches and the lightly burning embers. He felt uncertain as he left the last memories of his friends, but ahead, he would find them. He knew it.

"Taichi! Help me Taichi!"
"Ahh!" Taichi looked up from the ground. He'd been staring at his shuffling feet for awhile now, letting his mind wander. Admittedly, though, he couldn't stop thinking about his sister and how much she'd needed him. He also remembered how he couldn't move, how he couldn't get to her.. How Hikari's big brother couldn't do a thing.
"Taichi?" The boy saw that Agumon had stopped in front of him. His expression showed that he was clearly concerned.
"Sorry Agumon, I was just thinking."
"Well don't." Taichi looked surprised at what Agumon said, but the little digimon continued. "When you think about it, it'll just make you more upset. It wasn't your fault Taichi, no one could do anything."
"I know.." Taichi started, looking back down at the ground. "Hey, how long have we been walking for anyways?"
"A couple hours I suppose." Agumon simply stated. "We're a long distance away."
The two examined their surroundings. Where they were seemed somewhat familiar. They had just walked out of thick jungle-like brush, and were now looking at a desert. A stone well stood in between them and a long, hot walk. The boys looked at each other happily. "Water!"
They dashed over and looked down, to see if there was anything to quench their thirst.
"Ugh, no." Taichi grunted after he discovered that all he could see was darkness. "There's no way there's anything down there."
"We could check anyways. Look!" Agumon pointed to the bucket that was strung across a pulley. "Let's let it down!"
Taichi quickly untied the knot that held it there and let it fall to the bottom of the well. All they heard was a disappointing clunk as it hit dry ground. Taichi slid himself down against the stone. He sat, defeated, on the ground. "Agumon, this is ridiculous. Nothing's going our wa- What?"
Agumon looked to where Taichi was now pointing. "What are you looking at?"
The boy looked bewildered. "Agumon, the rope just moved!"
"Are you sure? I didn't see anything. I think you're dehydrated.."
"I'm sure I saw it! Look, Agumon, just wait!" Taichi jumped up off the ground and stared at the rope, waiting for it to move again. After about a minute of silence passed by, the look of hopefulness on the boys face disappeared.
"I'm sorry Taichi, nothing happened." Agumon was about to turn and walk away, when suddenly, he saw the rope twitch too.
Taichi nearly jumped with surprise. "See! Agumon I told you! Come on, help me pull the bucket up!"
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Agumon questioned. "It could be an evil digimon."
"Come on, just help me!" Taichi paid no attention to Agumon's concern as he began pulling on the rope. "Agumon, please, it's so heavy.." A grunt escaped his lips as the dinosaur like digimon grabbed a hold. Together, they slowly but surely made progress. What could possibly have made the bucket so heavy? It couldn't possibly be water..
When they neared the end of the rope, they tried to peer down to see what they were pulling up, just to make sure it was something they actually wanted to bring to the surface. What they saw took them both by surprise.
"Tsunomon?!" They increased the speed that they were pulling the bucket up and quickly took him out. The little digimon looked exhausted. His orange and tan fur was filled with dirt and his horn had scratches all over it. He could barely keep his eyes open.
"Taichi.. Agumon.. Thank goodness.." Tsunomon whispered through closely parted lips as he let his eyes close. "I thought I'd be lost forever."
"What are you talking about?" Agumon frantically asked, trying to keep his friend from passing out. "Can you tell us what happened?"
"It's a long story.." Tsunomon sounded like he was going to drift off.
"And where's Yamato?" Taichi quickly asked, trying to get all the information out of him before he fell unconscious.
"Yamato.. Taichi.. I tried, I'm sorry.." They could see the little digimon's eyes were beginning to tear up. "I don't know where.. anymore.."
"You don't know where he is?!" Taichi's heart started to pound against his chest. The color drained from his face as the realization that all the humans could be without their digital partners sank in. However, he needed to keep Tsunomon calm- and awake. "Can you tell us what happened to you?"
"To me?" Tsunomon said breathlessly. Taichi simply nodded. "Alright.. I-I don't remember much, but, all of us digimon tried to fight with Wargreymon.. But, then Anzamon performed this stunning attack.. It-it knocked us all away.. Wargreymon was gone.. and..and he turned to us –and.. oh Taichi, I'm sorry we couldn't defeat him!"
"Tsunomon, Tsunomon! It's fine! Don't you worry, you all did your best, but please, you need to finish!"
Tsunomon bit his tiny lip. "He.. he attacked us.. over and over again. We couldn't digivolve.. I felt like I was going to be destroyed.. I don't know if anyone actually was.. but after I couldn't take it anymore.. I-I gave up.. I couldn't move.. and then he took Yamato…"
"He took Yamato?! Did he take everyone else??" Taichi asked, his impatience kicking in.
"I-I don't know.. but everyone was screaming.. Yamato was in pain, and I couldn't move…"
Taichi's eyes grew wide. "Yamato was in pain? No.. This is all my fault.. I shouldn't have fallen asleep.. I shouldn't have frozen.. Tsunomon, I'm so sorry.."
"It's okay.." Tsunomon lightly smiled as his eyes flickered shut once again. "Now that you're here, we can find him.. Everything will be…"
Taichi waited for him to finish, but he never did. He had finally run out of energy. "Tsunomon! Tsunomon! Wake up! Please…" Taichi begged. "We need your help.." Tsunomon's words scared him though. Now that he was here, everything would be okay? In the past, it had always been the humans who relied on their digimon to stay safe. Now, the roles had seemingly reversed. Tsunomon had been helpless by himself. How did he even get down in that well anyway? And did he say that Wargreymon disappeared? The dreaded thought that Hikari and Sora had perished once again pushed its way out from the back of his mind. Tsunomon had to have seen whether or not Wargreymon was able to save them.. If only he would wake up.
Taichi held the fragile digimon in his arms as he walked with Agumon. They needed to let Tsunomon rest. Maybe then he'd be able to recall more of what had happened. Taichi needed anyone with him right now. Any of the chosen would have been fine. He didn't like the idea that he was the only human in the group. He had Agumon, sure, but Tsunomon wouldn't be able to do anything without Yamato. And the fact that Wargreymon couldn't destroy Anzamon left a pit in his stomach. What if Anzamon found him now? All three of them would be goners.
A few hours later, Taichi and Agumon decided they wouldn't make any more progress without some rest. Finding Tsunomon gave them hope, but at the same time, Taichi couldn't bear to think about what he had said. 'Yamato was in pain..' What had Anzamon done? What had happened to Mimi and Jyou and all the others? Where was Koushiro? If only Taichi could find Koushiro. Taichi knew if he could locate the redhead then all his questions would be answered. Being with Koushiro gave him a certain amount of confidence. He always knew what he was doing, and Taichi was sure that his computer would be able to locate any of the digidestined. When Koushiro was around, there was never any doubt, they always knew what they were doing. But here was Taichi, alone, thinking illogically. Agumon wasn't helping too much either. His light humor annoyed Taichi more than it helped. And Tsunomon, the poor thing, he really was useless without Yamato if they were to get themselves into trouble. Perhaps Yamato should be the first person they searched for. Or Koushiro.. or Hikari..
Taichi let out a frustrated grumble as he sat down against a tree. "Do you think we should stay here for awhile? It's getting kindof dark.."
"I think that'd be a good idea, Taichi." Agumon responded. "I think Tsunomon could use a good's night rest too. When do you think he'll wake up?"
"Soon I hope." Taichi rested his head in his hands as he looked at Tsunomon. He was still passed out.. He must have really been through a lot." As he spoke though, Tsunomon's eyes slowly opened.
"Taichi, Agumon?" The same smile appeared on his face as just before he passed out. "We're safe?"
"Yes, of course! Don't you worry." Taichi smiled back at him reassuringly. "I don't mean to be a burden, but are you feeling better now?"
"Yes, quite a lot. And I take it you want me to finish with my story don't you?" Tsunomon asked. Agumon and Taichi noticed he was speaking a lot easier now than he was before.
"That'd be great." A sigh of relief swept over Taichi's body.
"Alright." Tsunomon started. "I guess I told you most of the story, I'm sure it wasn't very detailed though. So since you don't remember anything, what do you want to know?"
"Well, first off, you said Wargreymon disappeared right? Do you know if he rescued Hikari and Sora before he did?" The anxiety in Taichi's voice was very noticeable. However, he was about to be let down.
"I'm sorry Taichi I don't.. There was dust everywhere from the attack.. I heard though.. I heard.."
"What, what'd you hear?" Taichi interrupted.
"I heard them both screaming.. and then the screaming stopped."
"Oh.." Taichi looked down at the ground. He wasn't sure what to make of that. "Well, thanks, Tsunomon.."
"I'm sorry, but I know they're okay. Especially Hikari, she's really strong. I'm sure she's with Takeru, and he's protecting her!" Tsunomon smiled, trying to make the boy feel better.
Taichi decided to let Tsunomon convince him. He smiled too, not really sure if it was fake or not. "I think so too."
"Oh, Taichi, I almost forgot!"
Taichi sat up straight again. "What is is Tsunomon?"
"Did you hear what Koushiro shouted?"
The boy was curious now. "No.. What did he shout? When?"
"Before he was taken.." Tsunomon looked thoughtful. "He shouted to you, or at least he tried to. He said 'Find me under the fire.'"
"Under the fire? What the hell did he mean?" Taichi asked no one inparticular.
"Think like Koushiro." Agumon suggested.
"Well.." Taichi thought aloud. "He wants us to find.. something.."
"Under a fire.." Agumon finished his thought for him. "Where did we see a fire?"
"The last fire I saw was at the campsite.." Tsunomon added in.
"If Koushiro is making us all go back to the campsite, the second I find him, I'm going to kill him." Taichi threw his head back.
"Is he hiding there?" Agumon asked.
"Why would he be hiding under the fire?" Taichi asked sarcastically. "I suppose we have to go though, maybe it'll help us find everyone else." The boy began cleaning up the area to try and hide their tracks.
"We're going now?" Agumon asked. "We haven't even slept yet!"
"I'm sorry Agumon but we have to. I need to find everyone. I need to find Hikari. Come on, are you with me?"
The orange digimon trudged alongside his partner with Tsunomon following closely behind. Taichi looked up at the stars as he walked. 'Izzy, please tell me something there will help us. Even though you're not here, I'm putting all my trust in you right now..'

"You're telling me we MISSED one of them?!" A voice roared through the dark forest night. "How could you idiots have MISSED one?!"
"We're sorry sir! We're sorry! We didn't see him! We thought he had already died!" Two Bakemon bowed down in front of a larger digimon. "Please forgive us Anzamon!"
"Because you two thought wrong, my plans could be RUINED! If you don't want your own lives to end I suggest you go out there and find the child we missed!"
"Yes! Yes, of course!" The Bakemon scampered off, scared to anger Anzamon more than he already was.
Anzamon leaned back in the giant stone chair he sat in. His surroundings were dark and hidden from the rest of the world. He'd managed to build up quite a fortress without anyone knowing. However, none of that mattered now. Nothing he had already accomplished had mattered. If the one chosen child he missed had managed to save everyone else, everything he'd built would be destroyed.
'Which one did we even miss?' He thought to himself as he stood up again. He glided over to a large glass orb, taking with him a small box. When he opened it, crests were revealed. An evil smile came to his face when he looked upon them. He had so easily taken many of them.. He began to pick them up and hold them towards the orb.
The first one he grabbed was green. It resembled a tear drop with a spot in the middle. 'Sincerity..' He thought to himself. 'You were so easy to acquire..' An image of an unconscious girl passed through his mind as he thought back. 'Your digimon put up quite a fight though.. well, as much of a fight as a Rookie level could..' He lightly touched it to the orb and an image of a cruise ship sailing the sea showed up. 'Excellent..'
He slid the rope around his opposite arm as he picked another crest at random. This one was silver and looked like a cross. 'Reliability.. From watching you, I always thought you'd be the first to fall.. You did surprise me though.' Again, he held the crest up. This time, an image of a restaurant appeared. '2 down..'
The next one was blue. It was made up of a circle with a squiggle line going down the middle and two horn-like shapes sticking out from either side. "Friendship.." Anzamon muttered aloud. "Disgusting.." He went back to his thoughts. 'So called crest of friendship, you didn't try to protect anyone else.. well, besides your brother.' The thought of the brother's bond send a tingling pain down his spine. It clouded his thoughts and caused him to ache with pain. 'But, once I got to him, you were a lost cause..' He held up the crest of friendship and saw a picture of a darkened cave. 'I have friendship.. Who's next..'Instead of holding onto Yamato's crest, he threw it harshly on the ground.
Next was his brother's, the crest of hope. Anzamon scowled at it. He knew that none of them were being very hopeful right now.. 'What good are you now, Hope?' He thought to himself. With this crest, he saw the image of a rundown amusement park. If the digimon recalled correctly, the boy had almost lost his life there once. Maybe this time it would actually work. In the orb he saw his minions everywhere, watching every entrance and exit of the park. Nothing was coming in, and certainly, nothing was leaving.
Anzamon picked from the two remaining crests in the box. The one he chose still shone a bit. It pierced the tips of his claws when he picked it up, causing him to falter backwards. 'Shit! Stupid girl, what are you doing?' "Show me light!" He screamed as he held it up to the glass ball. Surely enough, a picture of a large lake appeared. On the shores of that lake lay a tiny body. As the image zoomed in, Anzamon found that she was still unconscious. "Maybe I've killed her already.." He thought aloud as he watched her motionless body. She was laying across her stomach, but her head was to the side so that only half of it was buried in the sand. 'So innocent, it's almost a shame.. Now.."
Anzamon picked up the final crest. It didn't hurt him physically, as light had, but when he touched it, he clenched his fists with pain. He leaned backwards and let out a gigantic scream making the walls rumble around him. Rubble from the stone walls shook to the ground and the echo could be heard throughout the underground fortress. Several Bakemon came running in when they heard their master's cry.
"What is it, what is causing you to scream master?!" They called out.
He grabbed his head with both his hands as he fell to his knees. "LOVE!" He called out. "IT IS LOVE! Go to the pyramid! Make her feel the same torture that she is causing me! I don't care what you do, but make her BEG for death!"
"Yes, yes!" They obediently cried as they made their way to the front of the room. They quickly left. None of them looked back. They simply left their master to his pain.
Eventually, Anzamon stood up. He stumbled as he walked back over to his throne. When he collapsed upon it, his eyes begged for rest, but he would not allow himself to do so, not before the final chosen child had been found. 'Courage..' He thought to himself. He was missing courage, and courage was all anyone would need to attempt a rescue. But wait.. Wasn't there one more crest missing? Anzamon tried to remember if he had separated any of them, but he was in too much pain to think. He abandoned the thought as he let his mind go into nothingness.

"Have you found anything yet?" Taichi called to the two digimon as they searched around the campfire.
"No, nothing yet!" Was all they replied.
It took them quite awhile to get back to the campsite, and Taichi was going to lose it if they had trekked back all the way to where they started for nothing.
'Find me under the fire.. Find me under the fire.. God Dammit, Koushiro! What do you mean?! ..Wait!' Taichi crawled over closer to the fire pit. "Guys, come here!"
"What?!" Agumon and Tsunomon asked as they ran over.
"I've got an idea! Quick guys, help me move these logs!"
Together, the three of them successfully took apart the fire. If anything was under there, they were clueless as to how Koushiro had managed to get it there. Once the spot had been cleared, Taichi motioned for Agumon to dig. It didn't take long before he hit something hard.
"Look out, look out!" Taichi was more successful at bringing up whatever it was with his hands. "What the hell.."
Taichi saw something bright yellow. Once he brushed all the dirt off, he discovered that it was Koushiro's computer!
"Koushiro!" Taichi shouted to no one in particular. "I knew I could always count on you!" He opened it up, and something fell out and landed on the ground beside him. "Huh?"
"Look Taichi, it's a crest!" Tsunomon stated as he hopped over towards it. "It's Koushiro's! The crest of knowledge!"
A huge smile spread across the boy's face. "Koushiro, you're a genius! Now, at least whatever Anzamon's up to, he's down one crest." Taichi turned to Tsunomon. "I think we're finding everything one piece at a time."
"Then eventually, we'll find everyone!" The round digimon jumped up and down in the air. "We'll find Yamato soon!"
"Yeah.." A more serious look grew on Taichi's face as he turned on the computer. "Do you think there's anything on here that could help us?"
"Maybe, look." Agumon said as he scurried around so he could see the screen as well. "I can't even understand half of these documents.." He muttered as Taichi searched through all the files.
"Hold on, I'm going to check recent documents." With a few clicks of the mouse, Taichi opened the folder. There were a few files in there, but the dates between the last two were significant. The first file Taichi saw had the previous day's date on it, and the file before that had a date of before they came into the digital world. It made enough sense. The boy clicked on the most recent file and a sound player popped up. "Listen!" Taichi put his forefinger to his lips, signaling the others to be quiet. It was very hard to hear, and there was a lot of static, but if the boys listened closely, they could hear Koushiro's voice.
"To anyone who's watching this, it's the digidestined. I hope it's you Taichi, you can't be seen from where you were knocked unconscious.. Wargreymon's gone too, he disappeared right after he caught Sora and Hikari.."
A wave of relief ran through Taichi's body as he heard those words.
"I don't have much time, the Bakemon let us loose after Anzamon's attack, but he's taking everybody! I'm sure he'll find me soon, he's gotten Tentomon. Oh no, He's coming! I-I, for the first time ever, I don't know what to do! I hope by hiding this here it helps you somehow.. He's taken Takeru and Yamato on the way to me.. Time to go, time to try and fight back, I hope this doesn't go to waste… FIND ME UNDER THE FIRE!...."
The three sat there motionless as the message finished. They could hear the struggles of each digidestined in the background. Each useless attack of the rookie digimon echoed through the night. Worse yet, so did the calls for Taichi and Wargreymon. They were the only hope, and they didn't do anything.
"I heard Yamato.."
Agumon and Taichi turned towards Tsunomon. "What?"
"In the recording, I heard Yamato.. I heard my attack, then I heard Yamato.."
"When?" Taichi rewound the clip to the beginning. "Tell me when you hear it!"
They painfully sat there and listened to the recording again, reliving the scene in their heads.
"Blue blaster!" "Stop here!" Tsunomon said urgently.
Taichi clicked pause and turned up the volume as loud as it could go. They could barely hear Gabumon's attack, so they doubted they'd be able to hear Yamato. They leaned in as Taichi clicked play, trying to concentrate on the sound. Surely enough, behind the crackling and behind Koushiro's voice, they heard Yamato's cries. As Taichi took in what he said, his eyes swelled up with tears. Never before had he heard his friend beg like that.. Yamato was never reduced to begging..
"What did he say?" Agumon asked quietly. He saw Taichi's face, but he wasn't able to hear anything on the recording. He was almost too afraid to ask.
Taichi inhaled deeply as he looked at the digimon. "He said.. 'Don't send me back to that cave..' He was begging Anzamon to let him be with his brother.. Begging him.."
Agumon moved his gaze from Taichi's eyes to a spot just over his shoulder. "Oh.." He then looked at Tsunomon, who had a horrible look of guilt on his face.
"I couldn't protect him.. It's all my fault.."
"No." Taichi said. "If anything, it's my fault. Come on.. let's start going."
"What?" Agumon asked. "Going where?"
Taichi looked over his shoulder. "To the cave. Remember the cave Yamato told us about after we fought the dark masters? He said it was formed from the darkness of his heart. That sounds like the perfect spot for Anzamon to hold him in. I've got find him. Are you with me?"
Tsunomon and Agumon looked briefly at each other. "Of course."
Together, they started walking towards Spiral Mountain. They knew that's where the cave had previously taken Yamato captive. Or at least, it was around there..
'Hold on Yamato.' Taichi thought to himself. 'We're coming..'
But, just as they commenced their journey, a pain pierced the boy's chest. He grunted as he fell to his knees, not able to figure out what had just happened. All he knew was that his heart was screaming. It felt like it was being tortured. It pumped against his ribcage and manically squirmed inside him. Agumon ran over to him, but it was of no use. He felt cold, like all the warmth and joy inside of him had been suddenly ripped away.
