So let's just get this show on the road!
Disclaimer: I don't own this series, digimon is not mine
Chapter 4: The Enemy Revealed
As the kids were sucked through the portal, they suddenly ended up flying through a large metal door and landed with a thud! "Ow, I think we should track down every television set then put a pillow in front of it." Patamon sighed as he tried to push himself out of the dog pile that formed.
"Yeah, if you wanna do that, then make it fast." TK said as he pushed himself up.
"Is everyone alright?" Gennai then walked up to the group of kids who were slowly recovering from their trip. They all nodded and then looked up at the man.
"Gennai, you're well... old." Hawkmon said with a bit of hesitation.
"Yes, I have returned to this state for my energy still hasn't recovered from our work a few months ago." He said as he led them towards Davis and Veemon.
"Wow, does this place bring back memories." TK said as he looked around and found the place to be slightly different from when he had first set foot in the large chamber.
"Yeah, I like what you've done Gennai. It seems like you restored it to your original work station." Gatomon said to the half digimon man.
"Hey guys!" Davis then called out to the group and waved at them as they came into view.
"Hey nothing, why didn't you say anything earlier when you first came to the digital world?" Kari said to the goggle boy. "I would've done anything to get out of math."
"Alright, we're sorry but we should really listen to what Gennai has to tell us. It's really important." Veemon told the group.
"Yeah, you did mention that before in the message." Cody said. Then Gennai spoke up about what he and the other digimon leaders in the council had spoken of during their meeting, however, he left out the fact of other digimon leaders of the digital world since their gatherings were supposed to be kept secret.
"Yes, I have called you here because there is something happening here in the digital world. Many areas are getting attacked and we didn't know who was in charge of these attacks until recently. From what our sources have told us, the enemy is known as the Demon Lords and their leader is the fallen angel, Lucemon." At this time, the digimon of the group were all in shock to hear of the rise of the Demon Lords once again. "Their motives are what we assume is world domination but luckily they've been stopped in the past. Lucemon was sentenced to live in the center of the Digital World at the core where he lived in solitude for millions of years. Though, every century, he awakens from his slumber and roams the digital world trying to scour the world for his comrades who will stand alongside him during his domination."
"So according to what history says, there are about seven of them right?" Armadillomon asked.
"Indeed there are and each one represents a deadly sin," Gennai, at this time had brought down a screen from the ceiling and it displayed pictures as he spoke. "Lucemon is the symbol of Pride, Leviamon of Envy, Lilithmon of Lust, Belphemon represents Sloth, Beelzemon is the demon lord of Gluttony, Barbamon is greed and finally, the digimon whom you've all met before, Daemon, the Demon Lord of Wrath. Right now, we don't know what Lucemon is planning but we must... uh..." Gennai paused as he looked at the expressions of every digidestined's face, even Davis hadn't heard that part yet.
"Daemon is part of the Demon Lords? I thought Ken banished him to the Dark Ocean?" TK exclaimed which surprised the other digidestined around him.
"Please calm down TK." Patamon begged as he looked around and noticed everyone's anguish as well and tried to calm himself.
"But it doesn't make sense." TK sighed with his hands in fists.
"He did promise that he'd come back one day." Davis said. Yolei, Kari and their digimon didn't even say a word. At the mention of the Dark Ocean and Daemon, they all froze in shock.
"Continuing on, let's bring on some good news shall we?" Gennai said trying to lighten up the group of kids. "You won't have to be fighting them by yourselves, as you remember, there are more digidestined in the world than just yourselves, am I correct?"
"Sorry to burst your bubble there Gennai, but didn't the rest of the digidestined of the world get their minds erased from all of this?" Kari asked, being the first to snap out of their slump.
"Yes, however, isn't it odd that only you kids are the only ones that remember? Therefore, there are others located there in Japan." Everyone stared at him wide eyed this time as they looked at the man in disbelief. "I was talking with one of the three Celestial Digimon, Ophanimon and she told me of the Legendary Warriors. Almost a year ago, right before you kids were dubbed the second generation of digidestined, there were others who had saved this World from Lucemon before this time."
"They defeated Lucemon? Then why did he come back?" Yolei exclaimed.
"Why is Japan filled with digidestined all of a sudden?" Davis asked out of the blue.
"Davis, that's beside the point." TK sighed.
Gennai then cleared his throat as he continued on. "As I have said, Lucemon is the leader and is very difficult to defeat, which is why he was imprisoned in the very core of the digital world instead of deleted. The reason being because there hasn't been a force that was able to defeat him before, as far as they got, they were able to cut down his power. Even the original Legendary Warriors and the Three Celestial Digimon were no match for him and his minions alone, let alone the entire of the Demon Lords. This is why you must find these Warriors and join forces with them in order to stand a chance against these enemies." Gennai said.
"I think that's the best news that Gennai's ever given us." Kari said.
"Has he ever really given us good news?" Patamon pondered on the thought.
"So do you know who they are?" Gatomon ignored the pair and asked the man.
"Unfortunately, I wasn't able to receive the names of the kids involved but like you, they have their own version of digivices known as D-tectors. So you should be able to find them that way."
"This is just like the time when we asked you who the eighth digidestined was and you said somewhere in your hometown. Do you know how many kids live in Japan?" TK asked him.
"Let it go, it was almost four years ago." Patamon rested on TK head.
"Have you always been this negative?" the blond haired digidestined looked up at his orange partner.
"Though I don't know the owners of the Legendary Warrior Spirits, I do know the identity of each. May I refer you back to the screen. Now first of all, as I have told you there are three Celestial Digimon, first is Seraphimon, who was entrusted with two of the ten warriors of light and wind, Lobomon and Kazemon. The next is the female angel, Ophanimon, she was entrusted with the spirits of fire: Agunimon, ice: Kumamon and thunder: Beetlemon. The final Celestial Digimon is Cherubimon and in his possession was the spirits of water: Ranamon, earth: Grumblemon, steel: Mercurymon, wood: Arbormon and darkness: Lowemon."
"Darkness? There's a warrior of darkness?" Cody said surprised. "Can we really trust them?"
"Of course you can Cody. You just have to remember what you're fighting for." Armadillomon reassured the young boy. At least the kids all knew what they looked like so if they got a glimpse of one of these ten warriors, then they're bound to find the rest.
"So is that everything Gennai?" Kari asked the man.
"Yes I believe so. I bid you kids good luck in your search for them." Gennai then waved goodbye to them as they all then said their goodbyes and walked through the large doors. "If you need any help, just come by anytime and Oryxmon will be here to assist you." Right when Gennai had mentioned him, the goat digimon appeared from on top of the stairs. Davis and Veemon smiled and called out their goodbyes and thank yous to the digimon who just nodded and smiled. Then, they ran through the gate and were all suddenly flung back into the computer lab.
"Ah, it's good to be back." Davis sighed as he pushed everyone off from on top of him.
"Yeah," DemiVeemon agreed then suddenly started sniffing the air. He started to get a bit restless and was crawling all over everyone trying to find out what he was sniffing.
"DemiVeemon, buddy, what are you looking for?" Davis looked at the blue digimon as he continued his search.
"I can smell something Davis, I don't know what it is but it smells familiar." Yolei then remembered what she had saved for the digimon then got up. She picked up the plastic bag that she gave the other digimon earlier before heading out to the digital world. From the bag, she took out a chocolate bar and handed it to the blue In-Training digimon. "I knew I smelt it before, thank you Yolei." DemiVeemon thanked the purple haired girl before digging in. 'It's true that I smelt the chocolate but that wasn't really the smell that I was talking about...' DemiVeemon thought but then ignored it.
"So now what do we do?" Yolei asked as she looked back at the others. They all really had no idea now. All they could hope for was to get lucky and to stumble across some people that could possibly be connected to the digital world.
"What do we know so far?" asked Cody.
"Well, if they're digidestined like us then they should have memories on the events that had happened during that time a few months ago." Davis said. "But I didn't recognize any digimon from the pictures that we saw."
"They are ancient digimon Davis." Gatomon said to the googlehead leader. "They've haven't really been seen for a long time."
"That's true but if they were here before then there's bound to be some digimon that remember something." TK shared.
"But how do we know what digimon? We can't just go around asking questions randomly to every single digimon that we saw pass us by." Davis questioned.
"We should find some sort of connection first." Kari said the boy. "If they act a certain way then we might be able to find something out."
"I don't know, maybe we should sleep on this." Davis suggested this time and everyone exchanged glances before agreeing with the plan. "We don't know much about them but just keep an eye out for something out of the ordinary."
"But Davis, we don't even know if they're here in Odaiba." Poromon informed as he fluttered around the room.
"Poromon, what if someone sees you?" Yolei scolded as she grabbed the pink fluff ball.
"Whatever, just keep your eyes peeled. Judging from the size of those digimon, these kids' partners shouldn't be that hard to find."

As the bell rang, the Warriors all left their classrooms and thanked the heavens that school was over. They met up outside at the front of the school and waited for everyone to leave before they started their plan. "I'm just really happy that it's Friday today." Zoe sighed as she dropped her bag.
"Yup, that means three days of no school, considering the long weekend." Takuya said with a big smile plastered on his face.
"Of course you'd be happy about that." Tommy laughed.
"Yeah, yeah, it's a happy thing now does anyone know if everyone is gone or not?" Koji started to get impatient with their mindless chit chat.
"Calm down Koji, we're just being on the safe side. If it's safe, then we get going." Takuya said to the other.
"We'll it's been safe for a while now."
"Alright, if it makes you happy, then we'll start this search but did you tell Koichi what we're doing?"
"I told him that we might have a way of getting back to the Digital World and he sounded thrilled but he said that he had a committee meeting so he wouldn't be able to make it. Especially since he lives so far away." Koji explained.
"Alright, we'll just fill him in later, now Tommy, if you please?" Zoe looked at the younger boy as he understood and brought out his D-tector. He then pressed a few buttons then found the map again. "Is it still there?" Zoe asked as she looked over his shoulder. The boy nodded then entered the school building.
"Alright, so if we're here, then it must be around the corner over there." JP pointed to the right. They followed the hallway and looked around at the closed doors.
"The doors are all closed here." Tommy then looked back at the D-tector. "but it says that it has to be around here."
"Then it might not be on this floor. Let's try the next one." Takuya led the way up the stairs and towards the second floor. "Any changes?"
"Um... it's saying that the room is up ahead, about three doors to the left." The little boy pointed.
"Isn't that the computer lab?" JP wondered as they walked towards the door. They entered and found no one to be in the room. "Why in here?" JP asked as they walked in cautiously.
"Well, it is the digital world, why wouldn't the portal be in a place where there are a lot of electronic devices?" Zoe said logically.
"She does have a point there buddy." Takuya laughed. "So if we check around the room, it should be able to find it right?" The kids started to search everywhere around the room, inside every possible thing that they could think of. JP and Tommy were searching on the computers one by one and Zoe was examining the book shelves to see if there's any clue of a portal.
"Anything yet?" Zoe called from over her shoulder while the boys all turned towards her.
"Nope." Takuya and Koji said as they walked back over towards her.
"We still don't see anything." JP informed as Tommy then touched a computer and it suddenly lit up. They all shielded their eyes as they were blinded by the light.
"Tommy, what did you do buddy?" Takuya exclaimed.
"I don't really know, I just touched the keyboard and it lit up!" the young boy exclaimed.
"Well, how do we shut it off?" Koji exclaimed.
"Do you think we would know?" JP tried to get a glance at the screen to see what was causing the strange phenomenon but was unable to. At this time, the kids all suddenly felt a strange tug that was pulling them towards the computer. They tried to fight it as Takuya exclaimed that they grab onto something but it turned out to be useless as they were sucked in regardless. They felt the strange sensation of flying towards a familiar destination but couldn't really pinpoint when they had felt this way before. Suddenly, at the end of the seemingly never ending tunnel, a white light appeared and once again blinded them. When their eyes finally adjusted, they found the ground, a few inches from their faces before they fell.
"Ahh." They all groaned upon impact.
"What happened?" Zoe pushed herself up and looked around at the scenery. They were surround by trees and she guessed that they were in the middle of a forest.
"Can we quit it with the questions? If we didn't know where the light came from or what exactly happened in the computer room, then how do you expect us to know where we are?" Koji was getting really frustrated.
"Well..." Takuya was about to say something when a little red creature suddenly ran past them, following were a few smaller others. They all looked at the creatures dumbfounded as they scurried into the bushes. "Was that...?"
"A digimon?" They all looked at one another as they heard a loud roar behind them. They slowly turned around and found a large skeleton dinosaur behind them.
"Whaaaa!" They group exclaimed and made a run for it.
"What is that?" Zoe squealed.
"It's a dinosaur without the meat on its bones!" JP exclaimed.
"JP, the way you say it makes it sound like it went on a diet." Koji said slightly out of breath.
"So is that a real digimon?" Tommy wondered.
"If so, then that means that we're in the digital world right? Then how about we take care of this Warrior style?" Takuya said as he suddenly stopped and took out his D-tector. They all nodded then joined him.

"Alright buddy, you're asking for it!" the warriors then charged into battle.

In the distance, the rage of the battle could be heard and a small digimon turned to see sparks and flames coming out of the forest. Alarming herself, she called out to her friend who had been walking in front of her. "Hey look at that." Said one digimon to the other who now stood beside her.
"Wow, should we tell the others about what's going on?" the digimon asked.
"For sure, and we better hurry, otherwise the digimon in the forest will get hurt." With that said, the pair ran off in the opposite direction of the battle.
