Everyone went home to pack the necessities that they would need in the digital world. They all knew what they would need and what they wouldn't. They all met Perromon back at the bridge an hour later. They weren't worried about being missed because Perromon had assured them that time mover much slower in the real world.
Everyone was silent when they arrived back at the bridge. Perromon didn't blame them she was scared too. But, that wouldn't stop her, and it wouldn't stop them.
Koji was the first to speak. "So how do we get there? Do we need to go to the train station again?"
Perromon let out a small chuckle. "No. I have the ability to open portals. It was an unforeseen side effect of the spell the Great Angels used on me. It makes it easy to escape the Shadows. If I put more energy into my portals I can travel between different plains of existence. Your world and my world are merely on different plains. You guys should know that I will be physically drained when we arrive at the digital world so I won't be much use in a fight. Creating two portals in one day isn't easy, so lets try to stay out of trouble. But, I can still put up a fight if push comes to shove. Now lets go I have to take you to a special part of the digital world."
Takuya and Zoe exchanged a glance. "Where?" he asked.
Perromon turned her gaze toward Zoe. "I'm going to open a portal near Kazemon's sanctuary. You are a part of her so only you can get us inside where we'll be safe while I recover."
"But why Kazemon? Don't you think it'll be hard for me to go to her home!" Zoe shouted close to tears.
Perromon was close to tears too. "Because Kazemon is the only one that I didn't see get destroyed. She might have survived, and if she did that's where she'll be. Now stand back so I can open the portal."
Zoe just stared at Perromon for a moment. She felt a little angry that Perromon hadn't told her before. But, she felt more hope than anger. She took a step back as requested.
Perromon lifted her head up and let out a heartbreaking how. Suddenly a blue portal opened in front of her. Takuya looked at her and blinked in surprise. Perromon was panting hard and her eyes were the same shade of blue as the portal. One thing was clear: she couldn't hold the portal open for long.
Takuya took a deep breath and held onto his backpack tight. After taking one last look at his hometown he jumped in followed by Koji, Koichi, Zoe, Tommy, JP and Perromon who closed the portal behind her. A breeze blew underneath the bridge, blowing up a few papers. The cars drove by, the birds still sang and the kids still played. It was as if no one cared that six children might never return.
(Takuya's P.O.V.)
I couldn't remember the last time my feet were on solid ground. I opened one eye to see how everyone else was doing: they were all holding onto their backpacks for dear life. Perromon suddenly shot past me and opened her mouth, forming a blue ball of energy.
"Bark Blast!" she cried and fired the energy ball.
'So that's her attack' I thought.
As soon as her attack hit the wall of the portal a hole opened up and sucked all of us in. We all let out a scream as the scenery of blue was replaced by a wave of green and brown.
We all landed with a painful thud on a barely cushioned pile of leaves. I got up and rubbed my neck. That fall hurt! I looked around to check on everyone else. They all looked okay only a few scraped, but wait!
"Where's Zoe!" I cried.
JP pointed behind me. I turned around to see Zoe walking beside a very shaky Perromon. She turned around to look at me her eyes were blank. I gulped and got up.
'She must sense Kazemon's sanctuary!' I realized.
We all ran to catch up. But, I had this feeling that Zoe knew something we didn't.
