The Digidestined were all pacing around the campfire,
worrying about Kira and Gatomon, when they heard a shriek and a thud.
~~~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~@@@@@@@@@~~~~~######
"Ouch!" said Kira. Luckily, they had landed in a pile of leaves so that had broken their fall. "Are you all right Kira?" asked Gatomon, concerned. Kira nodded, "Good thing these leaves were here eh?" grinned Kira. They heard the sound of feet and turned around. Before Kira knew it, all the Digidestined came into the clearing. "Kira!" cried Brandon happily.
After a joyful reunion, Kira explained what happened to her in the Dark Ocean. "Wow! You saw Mommy?" asked Brandon in awe. Kira nodded. "It was strange thought..." Kira trailed off. Suddenly, her digivice started to talk. "D...Digidestined..." The voice was covered in static but they all automatically knew that voice. "Gennai!" they all gasped. Kira quickly took her digivice out and said "Gennai! Can you hear us?" All they heard was, "G...go...e...east. B...blackness arisen...going...help...people." "What is he talking about?" asked Nolee. Josh shrugged. "The only thing I could decipher was that he wanted us to go east.
"Well then, we're going east!" said Terry with unnatural cheerfulness.
~~~~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~@@@@@@~~~~~#######~~~~~~$$$$
"Come on Justin! You can't stay in that tree forever!" yelled Brandon. Justin ignored him and playing louder and louder on his harmonica. "He's hopeless!" sighed Matt. "Well you were also hopeless you know." said Mimi, obviously irritated. "It's his worse mood swing." Sighed Ari. Siena, obviously not known for her patience, climbed the tree without a word and went over to Justin. She stared at him for a minute and then slapped him.
Justin clutched his red cheek, with anger in his eyes. "Sitting in this tree all day WONT get us home and YOU'RE OBVIOUSLY NOT HELPING ARE YOU?" shouted Siena. The anger went out of his eyes and he climbed down the tree along with Siena. They were all silent for a minute then Ty cleared his through and said, with forced cheerfulness, "Well, I guess it's time to go, huh?"
They didn't know how many days they had traveled east until Brandon finally said, "I'm tired, can we take a break?" Nolee was also tired but she felt that where they were going wasn't far away. "I think we're almost there. Hold on a bit more okay?" Kira said. Brandon nodded and kept walking.
After another half day of walking, Brandon and Nolee fell on their knees. "Brandon! Nolee! Are you alright!" asked Kerry. "Y...yeah. We're alright." They both said but they could all tell that they couldn't walk much longer. "Here, one of you guys can come on my back and another can come on Terry's back okay?" said David. So Brandon went on David's back and Nolee went on Terry's. Kira smiled gratefully. "Thanks." "No prob." Grinned David.
"Hey! What's over there?" asked Cody. They had been traveling for about 5 days now, only stopping once in a while. Ty took out his mini telescope and looked around. "What?" "Over there!" pointed Tai. They were at the edge of a desert. Tai was pointed to a black cave about 200 meters away. "Let's check it out! That's probably where Gennai wanted us to go!" said Ari
When they got to the cave, what looked like a short, squat man bundled in rags was waiting for them. "Erm... hello?" said Tai. "I suppose you are the Digidestined Gennai was talking to me about?" asked the man? They nodded. Biyomon stared at the man closer and gasped. "You're no man! You're Wardenmon!" Wardenmon nodded slowly. "But you were destroyed a long time ago?" asked Gomamon. The other Gomamon (Josh's Gomamon) nodded.
"I have come back for one purpose and one purpose only. I am to guide you through the deep dark of Oblivion." "Oblivion?" asked Terry. "Usurper created Oblivion to prevent the Digidestined from crossing. Oblivion is where he poured his malice and rage. The only way to pass is if you cling to the good memories that you have. If your dark thoughts take over, they you will be trapped in them and the dark will feed off the memories." Wardenmon said.
"Well, we have to go in right? Or there is no other way?" asked Justin. Wardenmon shook his head. "Well then, we'll go through!" said Tai. Wardenmon silently lit a lantern and motioned for them to follow. They stepped into Oblivion and into the deep darkness.
~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~@@@@@@@@@@~~~~#
It seemed that everyone had an okay time going through, until...
Tai's Memories-
Him and Sora running around in a field...
Them playing soccer and when Tai scored the winning goal, Sora hugged him... Staring at the stars at midnight with Sora teaching him the constellations...
A dark memory slowly crept into his mind...
"Sorry Tai, I'm waiting for Matt..."
"Of course I'll go with you to the dance Grant!"
~~~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~@@@@@@@@@@@@~~~~~~~#
Siena was thinking of happy thoughts until she noticed that Tai had stopped walking. All of them noticed and turned around. Siena opened her mouth to speak until they heard a faint voice...
"Sorry Tai, I'm waiting for Matt..."
"Of course I'll go to the dance with you Grant!"
Images flickered on the cave's walls and they were faint pictures of Sora outside Matt's concert and Sora saying yes to Grant.
Sora gasped when she saw these. Guilt whirled in her mind. The truth was, she only liked Grant as a friend, and she didn't really want to go to the dance with him. She... she had so many feelings in her head those past few days that she didn't know how to sort them out. She didn't know who she loved.
Sora's mind filled with guilt and suddenly, the floor warped. Roaring and total confusion filled the cave and it seemed like everything was spinning. Then, total darkness.
