Data Fragment 10: Cliffhanger

Willis was about to take a bite out of his long-awaited sushi roll when an explosion rocked the Shinjuku District. It wasn't like any explosion Willis had ever seen: a clear shimmering beam shot up from a mass of fog, almost like a blast of raw heat. It reminded him, strangely, of digivolution.

Immediately Willis digivolved his Terriermon to Gargomon, and then to Rapidmon, and rode the sleek Ultimate to the scene of apparent catastrophe. He expected more of a reaction from people seeing his Rapidmon, but no one seemed to worry about it too much. Then again, this was the city where the main D-Reaper attack took place: the news still skirted around the mention of Digimon, but the home of the Tamers probably was aware of Digimon than the average city.

On the way there, Willis spotted a kid riding a large red-and-black dinosaur Digimon heading in the same direction as him. He noticed the goggles the child wore, and was reminded of Davis.

The goggle-wearing kid soon noticed him, and came over. "Hey, do you know what happened…Er, not-Henry. Who are you?"

So that was why no one blinked at Rapidmon: this Henry person had one too. "I'm Willis, Digidestined of Destiny. And I don't know what's going on either."

"Oh. Well, I'm Takato," answered the brown-haired boy. "I'm a Tamer."

Willis had suspected as much, but didn't press the matter further.

It seemed to take forever to reach the site of the explosion, but they saw the effects long before that. All electronics and power systems in a twenty-mile radius had been completely drained and broken. There were several crashed cars. Except for the frightened murmurings of the people on the street, it was bizarrely quiet.

Then they noticed a auburn-haired girl riding a Kyuubimon. The golden fox Digimon was stepping languorously, like she was sleepwalking, and her rider had a similarly vacant look.

"Rika!" Takato called out, as he rode his Digimon over to her. "Are you alright? What happened?"

The girl named Rika glanced to Takato, before instantly averting her gaze. She gripped Kyuubimon's fur tightly, as tears pricked the corners of her eyes.

"Henry…Henry, he's…"
