Chapter 6: The escape

The Wizard struggled to keep his eyelids open. He was still sitting on the chair inside the cage and some of the side-effects of being stuck in the Ebay cage were severe sleepiness but he was unable to sleep, because he knew he was in a bad position to laze around.

There was James there as well; he had fallen asleep, in a heap on the floor next to the cage. When Satoshi looked carefully enough, he could see the electric burns on his arms. He went out of his chair and headed over to the edge of the cage.

He started to call up a healing spell. But he stuffed up and he remembered what Jessie had said. It was a full magic-proof cage.

But when the Wizard had even tried to help James, a pokeball rolled out of James' pocket and a pokemon came out.

"Chime chime!" Chimeccho cried.

"I'm not hurting your master," said Satoshi calmly. "I want to help him."

Chimeccho said, "Chime Chime Chime Chime… chime echo chime chime!"

"I'm in this cage because they kidnapped me not because I'm a baddy!" the Wizard cried, "anyway, I'm stuck here and I can't get out."

Izzy was looking through stuff in his laptop. Thanks to the latest updates he had installed he could easily communicate with Tai and the others through their digivices. He had been leisurely surfing the web, playing some RPGs and then he happened across the first clue.

"Hey Matt! Look at this!" He shouted, waving for Matt to come over.

Matt had been lazing around, thinking about lyrics for his songs and May had been snuggling up with him, extremely close. Drew was nowhere to be seen.

"What is it?" Matt opened one eye.

"I think I've got something!" Izzy said.

"Really?" Matt jumped up, leaving May lying uncomfortably on the couch.

They crowded around the laptop.

"See that? Right there." Izzy pointed at the screen.

Matt frowned. "What? But that's just a sale on Ebay."

"No, look closer!"

Matt looked and gasped. "Wish-granting Wizard. Genuine. Starts at $1000. 42 bids have been placed. Current selling price $20850… $20850? That's heaps! What are Tai and them gonna do? Earn money and buy him off this Jessie girl?"

"Wait! Did you say Jessie?" May cried from her place on the couch.

"Yeah, what about it?" Matt said. Then he paused. "Oh yeah! Jessie is that Team Rocket chick!"

Izzy nodded. "That's right! We have to tell them that Team Rocket has him!"

Tai's digivice beeped.

"Eh?" he wondered.

"That must be Izzy!" Sora exclaimed. "He must have found something!"

"Yeah, that's right!"

Everyone crowded around Tai's digivice.

It was kinda fuzzy but they could hear Izzy's voice. "Tai! Tai!"

"Whoa, chill dude. What is it?" Tai asked.

"It's the wizard! We know where he is!" Izzy's voice yelled.

"Where is he?" They all yelled.

"He's with Team Rocket!"

Just then the connection was terminated and they couldn't hear anymore.

Tai frowned. "I wonder what happened. How are we supposed to know where Team Rocket took him?"

"Remember the Team Rocket hide-out?" Sora cried in a flash of brilliance. "We went there last time!"

"Oh yeah!" T.K remembered.

Kari shrugged. "Okay, so all we do is go to the hide-out and grab that wizard guy and then run for it. It's a total cinch!"

"No…it's not," Tai said. "Not only is the inside a huge maze with traps all over the place, there are Team Rocket officers all over the place, ready to battle you with their pokemon…"

"You guys don't have any pokemon so… what did you do last time?" Ash wondered.

"We had our digimon with us, so we managed to beat them. But what are we meant to do now?" Sora frowned.

"But we have Digimon!" Kari, T.K, Davis and Yolie screamed.

"Yeah, what about us? We're Digimon, we count!" Hawkmon screeched.

Veemon, Gatomon and Patamon stared up at Sora with shiny puppy-dog eyes.

Sora smiled. "Okay, I guess you guys will be fine."

"Yeah," Ash said, "besides you guys forgot about my Pokemon."

"And mine," said Misty.

Brock had pokemon to but he was too busy fussing over Mimi.

"I guess that's what we'll do, then." Tai said. He grinned at everyone, but it seemed more directed to Sora. Sora blushed.

"Let's go to the hide-out!" Ash cheered.

To Mimi, it looked like everyone had someone, more or else.

Well, there was Tai, who had an enormous crush on Sora since ages. And Sora being her best friend, she knew that Sora had always dreamt that she would one day end up with him.

Ash and Misty seemed like really good friends but perhaps there was more beneath the surface. After all, all of the people from the Pokemon world seemed mysterious, like they could hide anything. Especially Ash, who had been hiding all his feelings for Misty extremely well.

And T.K and Davis were always fighting over Kari, who would push both of them away. There was Tai; overprotective of his sister who would keep an eye on all of them.

Yolie seemed to have a big crush of Max, who seemed more gentlemanly than last time she met him.

Well, Brock- maybe he seemed to be totally smittened by her, but Mimi just couldn't truly love him. After all, Brock was attracted to all pretty ladies.

There was really only one person she loved and that was someone who was so popular that you practically had to book time with him. And he was so hot and all that crap, all the girls would scream whenever he passed.

Mimi sighed. Oh, she was so pathetic. Why she would be in love with that guy… well, he had this beautiful smile even though it was so rare because he had always been a lonely kid. But when they had all become the Digidestined, they became friends, so his friendly side was revealed. That was who she had fallen in love with.

While everyone else was discussing rescue methods, Mimi was wondering what he was doing right now.

Matt didn't want to be mean or anything but May was seriously getting on his nerves. I mean, he should be used to it, he was a musician, and all his fans were so crazy about him but that was one aspect of his career he didn't really appreciate that much.

And May, she seemed to sincerely care about him, but he just didn't feel the same. And speaking of sincere, the girl with the crest of sincerity… Mimi…

He remembered when she had turned away and joined the others who were going into the Pokemon World. There was this look in her eyes.

This wistfulness, this look in her eyes, just broke his heart. And she was all he could think about since then.

"Huh." he laughed at himself for this mess he had gotten himself into. It was all so confusing. They were all here, the Digidestined and Pokemon guys- they had been brought together so that they could complete this mission but it seemed that this was making everyone's feelings more intense.

He sighed. It was making him so confused.

"Chime… Chime Chime!" Chimeccho had just put everyone in the building to sleep. It flew back to the Wizard.

"Thankyou," Satoshi said. "Now, could you just bring me that key hanging on the wall?"

Chimeccho floated over to the key and then back to the cage, where the Wizard used to key to unlock himself.

"Thankyou very much," he said to Chimeccho and then teleported to who-knows-where.
