Chapter 10

As they were walking, they stumbled across the center of Etemon's dark network, and Izzy hacked in, and got an e-mail. It was from an unknown person, asking for help. Yumi said, "We should go help them." Everyone agreed, though they still worried it was a trap. They started walking through some rock formations, Yumi, Sora, and T.K holding their tags, in case they started glowing. T.K.'s started glowing, and everyone started running after him. The crest soon came in sight, and it went into T.K.'s tag. Miharumon smiled, saying, "That's the Crest of Hope." Everyone congratulated him before noticing the room his crest revealed.

Izzy started explaining how closely the two worlds were linked, and how they were going to get to this mystery person. He pressed the enter button, and a wall disappeared, showing an exit. Miharumon went out, and snarled, bristling. Yumi came up next to her, and saw Etemon racing towards an upside-down pyramid. They decided to stay where they had found T.K.'s crest, and went to sleep. The next day, they went back, and Tai said, "T.K., Mimi, Matt, Yumi, you guys stay here. If we need you, we'll call." Miharumon nodded, and sulked as she watched them go. Yumi sat down beside her, and said, "I wonder what my crest will be…" "Maybe the Crest of Kindness."

Miharumon said, and Yumi said, "Don't you know all the crests?" "Most of them." "Then which ones are there?" "There's Tai's Crest of Courage, Matt's Crest of Friendship, Izzy's Crest of Knowledge, Joe's Crest of Reliability, T.K.'s Crest of Hope, Mimi's Crest of Sincerity… I don't remember any more. I'll probably remember when I see them." Yumi sighed, and said, "Sometimes, I wonder why you're the strongest." Miharumon could tell she was kidding, and nuzzled her arm. Yumi smiled, petting her head, when Miharumon shot up, saying, "They need us!" Gabumon Digivolved to Garurumon, Palmon Digivolved to Togemon, and Miharumon Digivolved to Haramon.

They raced to the pyramid, and blasted their way in. Tai was frozen, and their Digimon were beaten and exhausted.

Haramon jumped at Etemon, shooting a Howling Tornado, hitting him away, and Togemon used Needle Spray. Etemon jumped back, and Garurumon used Howling Blaster. They left immediately, and they found themselves back where T.K. had found his crest, and Yumi trying to console Tai. He felt it was his fault that Sora was taken. She sighed, saying, "Tai, we're going to get her back. I promise." "Really?" "She's my friend. I'm not going to abandon her!" Yumi said stubbornly.
That night, they tried to think of what to do. Miharumon sulked, and said, "It was my fault. I should have insisted on coming! If I had, then Biyomon would be with us, as well as Sora!"

T.K., who was sitting with the Digimon, consoled Miharumon, and slept with the Digimon. Izzy ran from the room, saying, "I know where Datamon took Sora!" Everyone jumped up, and ran into the room. He showed them there was a lower level there, and a secret room. They all agreed to go get her, and went the next morning. Joe and Matt distracted the Digimon outside, and Izzy, Tai, and Yumi went inside. They were running, and Yumi was frantic to find Sora, hoping that nothing had happened to her. Izzy said they just had to go down a flight of stairs and they'd be there. Right before they started, Etemon appeared.

Tentomon Digivolved to Kabuterimon, and urged Tai and Agumon to go find Sora. Miharumon snarled, and Digivolved to Haramon, and said, "This is for hurting my friends!" She snapped, shooting a Howling Tornado at him. It hit him dead on, and Haramon jumped at him, using Slashing Fangs, and almost cutting him to ribbons. He jumped out of the way, and grabbed her by the neck. She snarled, biting down on him. He squirmed away, and shot a Dark Network at Kabuterimon, knocking him down the steps.

Before Haramon could react, Etemon jumped on her back, making her fall down the stairs as well, and Yumi yelled, "HARAMON!!!" As she ran down. She saw Tai's crest glow as he went through the barrier after helping Agumon Digivolve to Greymon. Yumi ran up to Haramon, and asked, "Are you okay?" Haramon nodded, getting up, snarling. Etemon aimed a Dark Network at Yumi, but Haramon shot a Howling Tornado at it, making both disintegrate in midair. "Don't you ever try to hurt Yumi!" Haramon snarled, jumping at Etemon. Etemon jumped back, and was right next to the barrier, his back to it, when it fell down because of Birdramon.

Yumi smiled when she saw Sora, and they soon blasted their way outside and rejoined the others. Soon, it seemed that all of the other Digimon were being sucked into the pyramid as Haramon, carrying Yumi, and the others walked away easily. They all turned around to see the pyramid disappear, and Etemon appear, attached to a huge mass of tubes and wires. Haramon shot a Howling Tornado at him, and Birdramon shot a Meteor Wing. The attacks were absorbed, and Yumi felt helpless. She noticed that there was no way they could win, and she hated the feeling. She noticed Tai's crest glowing, and he ran forward with Greymon.

Right before everyone's eyes, Greymon Digivolved to Metalgreymon, and cut Etemon's Dark Network with his claws. He started glowing, and shot two missiles from his chest. They sucked Etemon into a strange vortex, and Tai and Metalgreymon were sucked in as well. Everything was quiet, and Yumi asked, "Wh-What happened?" "AGUMON!!!" Miharumon yelled, worried.
