Chapter 7: Calumon, Where Are You?

------

Digimon Tamers World, Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan.

Rika's head was resting on Ryo's chest, she was asleep, and had been for some time. Ryo watched her, as her chest moved slowly up and down, in the rhythm of her breathing. He stroked her hair, and then started releasing it from its usual spiky ponytail. The hair fell down to her shoulders, making her look more beautiful than ever, in Ryo's eyes, she was truly a queen. No more than that, she was a goddess. He kissed her cheek, making her stir, then after a few seconds, she woke up. "Ryo?" She looked up at him, seeing the look in his eyes. "What?" She demanded. "You're beautiful." Ryo said softly. A blush crept over Rika's cheeks. "Shut up Akiyama." She said in a small voice. "I mean it Rika." He said softly. Rika opened her mouth to say something, but he caught it with his own, making her silent, as they both enjoyed the kiss.

10 minutes later the phone rang, Mr Akiyama answered it. "Hello? Takato? Yes they're here. Wait a second I'll get them.

There was a knock at the door to Ryo's room, this caused the couple to stop making out, just in time as Mr Akiyama came in. "Takato's on the phone for you two." He said, as he handed them the cordless phone. "This better be important." Rika grumbled. Ryo put the phone on speakers, and said. "Hey Takato, what's up?" "Ryo, is Rika there too?" Takato asked. "Yeah she's here." "Guys you need to come to Hypnos quick, Calumon's missing!" Rika and Ryo's eyes widened. "Alright Goggle-Head, we'll be there as soon as possible." Rika said, hanging up the phone, as she and Ryo stormed out, heading for Hypnos.

"Woahhhh." Calumon screamed as the data stream carried him away. Then suddenly, it stopped, and he found himself in the middle of a park. "Huh, a park, yay, I'm back, Jeri, Guilmon, Takato, where are you?!" He yelled. There was no answer. "Huh, that's strange, oh well I guess I'll just have to find them then." He flew off, searching for his friends.

After a while of flying he suddenly came across what looked like. "Takato, hey I'm back." He flew down towards the boy, then as he got closer, he stopped. "Hey, you're not Takato, but then why are you wearing goggles?"

Digimon Tamers World. Hypnos, Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan.

The Tamers were all gathered in Hypnos' main office, waiting for any information the staff could give them on Calumon's whereabouts. Reilly turned to face them. (As she did, they could see that her stomach was fairly large now, she was after all 6 months pregnant with Yamaki's child.) She looked at them seriously. "We've detected Calumon's data, but the thing is, it's not in the digital world or here on earth. We can't get an exact reading, but it looks as if he's in another world all together." Takato stared at her, In another world? But how, wait…´ "Maybe the sovereign know." He said out loud. "Hey you might be right." Henry said. "Then lets go to the Digital World, and ask." Jeri stated. "Open the portal Tally." Rika demanded. "Ok here it goes." Tally said, activating the portal to the Digital world. All the Tamers including Alice stepped in and soon entered the Digital World.

"Hey you're not Takato, but you're wearing goggles, I thought it was only Takato who had goggles." Calumon looked at the boy before him, clearly confused.

"Hey who are you? And who's Takato is he your partner?" Davis asked the small Digimon before him. "Me? I'm Calumon, and Takato's Guilmon's Tamer not mine." Calumon answered cheerfully. "Excuse me, did you say Tamer?" Kari asked. "Yes, I did say Tamer. Why, aren't you a Tamer to, those are your digimon aren't they?" Calumon asked. "Uhm, yes they are, but we're Digidestined." Kari said. Calumon's ears retracted into his head, as he considered this new word. "Digi….. Destined? " He asked. "Hmm doesn't ring any bells."

The Digidestined all looked at Calumon, who looked back, wondering who exactly this odd digimon was. Then suddenly Calumon said. "Well I've gotta go find Jeri and Takato, see you." He flew off heading away from the Digidestined. "Wait." Yolei called. "Did you say Jeri?"

The Tamers were walking through a forest, heading towards Azulongmon's palace. Jeri wasn't taking Calumon's disappearance very well, and although she tried to act like nothing was wrong, it was clear that she was sad. "Don't worry Jeri, you'll see we'll find him, and bring him home in no time." Suzy said comfortingly. Jeri sniffed, and nodded. "Thanks Suzy, I… I know we will." She said in a small voice. Takato gave her hand a reassuring squeeze, and she held on to his hand tightly. Ai and Mako walked behind Takato and Jeri, with Impmon. Henry and Alice were walking in front of Takato and Jeri, and in front of them were Rika and Ryo. Suzy, Terriermon and Lopmon were next to Jeri, and Renamon and Cyberdramon were walking slowly behind the group. Guilmon was on Takato's other side.

They had been walking for another half an hour, when a large green data stream. As they were about to head around it, it sped up, and soon sucked up the Tamers, and digimon, before any of them even had a chance to escape. "Great, not again." Rika groaned.
