Izzy murmurs "Yeah... So... That means we need the cards because they go into the holes!" Gennai nods "That's right... However" I interject "There's ten cards meaning one of them is a fake..." Gennai grumbles "You stole the words right out of my mouth!"

Izzy groans "That means you've given us one too many cards!" Gennai nods "That's right! Like Dante said one of them is a fake..."

Tai smiles "No biggie! We'll just try them all until we get the right combination." Gennai head locks Tai so fast one would be quick to not judge his age "You will not you silly boy! That's the last thing you should do There are many, many other worlds! If you put the cards in the wrong order it will be a disaster! You could end up in a different world with no way to return!"

Gennai composure changes as he coughs "Let me explain... Putting the cards in the wrong order may take you to a world where people and Digimon switch scales..." Mimi freaks out "NO! Not happening I like my skin!"

I groan "I'm ok with that.. I'll just have to get use to not have opposable thumbs..." Gennai groans picking up the cards "Don't worry it won't happen to you... As long as you put them in the proper order."

Joe interjects "But we have no idea what to do..." Gennai yells "YOU MUST LEARN TO USE YOUR POWERS THE WAY-" Gennai grumbles "Myotismon is using his... Tomorrow I'll teach you the proper use of the cards."

Night

Izzy wakes me up so we can talk to Gennai together "I have a couple of questions for you..." Gennai nods "Go ahead..." Izzy speaks up "The Digital World is like ours but different, why is that?"

Gennai answers "The same material is use in all worlds..." Izzy interjects "Molecules and atoms..." Gennai nods "Exactly... Everything here in the Digital World Plants... Trees... Buildings... Even the Digimon themselves came from computer data in your world. So if there're strange things here they're the results of broken or missing data..."

Izzy interjects "What about you Gennai... Are you made up of computer data too?" Gennai nods "Of course... So in each of the worlds I world appear as somewhat... Different!" Izzy interjects "But Gennai... If you're not human... How are you different from the Digimon...?"

Gennai retorts calmly "I have no attributes..." I lift an eyebrow "Attributes... like what? Electrical glands or... poison stingers...?" Izzy gawks "You mean like the different attacks like Digimon's have?"

Gennai nods "Yes! And the way a Digimon Digivolves... But attributes determine much more than that... They explain why some Digimon are good and some are... Evil... All Digimon can be classified as Data, Virus or Vaccine..."

Izzy nods "We're definitely familiar with the virus kind..." I nod "Yeah... Alucarddik... A.K.A Impmon is a virus type... However his has a rather peculiar Digivolution pattern... He either Digivolves to a Virus or Vaccine type... Even his attacks change..."

Gennai nods "Hence the reason why Digimon have different Digivolution patterns... By the way have you used that Digimon analyser I gave you?" Izzy nods "Yes, but there is something I wanted to ask you about...?"

Gennai asks "What's that?" Izzy flips open his laptop "I'm only able to access on Digimon that I have seen... Not on the ones that the others have seen..." Gennai nods "Hmm... You're right... That is a problem..."

Izzy closes his laptop "Is it one you can solve?" Gennai hums "You just leave it to me my young friend... I should have it all taken care of by morning... But for now youse guys had better get some rest..."

Izzy nods smiling "Kay!" I stop Izzy from leaving "I have a question for you well two..." Gennai looks at me "Go ahead..." I speak up "First where is the Crest of Order located...?" Gennai thinks "Hmm... I say you already know the answer you've already been there..."

I groan "That leaves a couple of hundred places to search... Alright next question. Why do I have two Crests or more specifically, what if I chose to use the Crest of Chaos over the Crest of Order...?"

Gennai hums "I cannot answer a question like that... because there is no one single answer, but if you do in fact choose to use the Crest of Chaos one time more than that of Order... The outcome could be... Disastrous... Just like a weighted scale. If you put more weight on one side the scale will tip in the said favour..."

I nod "Thank you..." I turn to Izzy "We should get some sleep..." Izzy nods as we walk away.

While we are walking Izzy speaks up "What's with the second question..." I stop "Promise not to tell anyone..." Izzy pause for a second "As long as it doesn't endanger us all..." I pause for a moment "That's the thing I think it does..."

Izzy hums "Well speak your mind..." I murmur "Well recently.. You know how I broke down and became aggressive..." Izzy sighs "Yeah..." I calmly respond "That was a lie... I never had a migraine... I had a migraine from having heard it but it wasn't the migraine that made me like that... Chaos is somehow conversing with me... I don't know how or why it's doing this... All I know is this could go poorly if certain people find out. And I don't want everyone choosing sides..."

Izzy taps his foot "For how long...?" I murmur "Since the gate closed... He speaks here and there but it's always... wants control... He wants me to control the Crest of Chaos but I think he has a more hidden agenda... Gennai's information proves that..."

I look at Izzy in the eyes "Will you tell the others...?" Izzy shakes his head "While I think it's best to tell them... This could break us as a group... If we split... We could have a three way battle... Once Myotismon has been dealt with I think it's best you tell them..."

I murmur "What if it's too late by then..." Izzy hums "We just have to hope it's not too late..."

Morning

I yawn getting up somehow feeling refresh and ready to go for 5 rounds with Mike Tyson. We finish breakfast off as Gennai enters the room "Good morning All!" We smile in a cheery mood "Hi!"

Gennai smiles "Izzy I've completed the modifications for your computer." Gennai flips open Izzy's laptop pointing out the change "When you place someone's Digivice into this adapter. The analyser will show information on any Digimon that they have seen. I've also installed a new screen saver... You know the one with the coloured fishes swimming around... I really like that one!"

Izzy smiles "Great minds really do think alike..." I murmur "I don't know... I like the pipes..." Gennai speaks up "And now I have a request for all of you! I don't want you to forget that you alone are the Digidestined... I've done all I can do... I can no longer help you once you returned to Myotismon's castle. Good luck!"

Time Skip

We stand at the pedestal as I grumble "So after nearly dying we made it here in one piece I gotta hand it to you MegaKabuterimon certainly knows how to make an entrance..." Izzy smiles "And thanks to him we didn't need to traverse through a hundred floors of illusions..."

Tai nods pulling out the cards "We got to figure out the patterns in these cards!" Tai hums sorting out the cards into three groups "Hmm Good one..."

Tai points to five cards Gomamon, Unimon, Agumon, Impmon and Andromon "Bad one!" Tai points to two cards this time Drimogemon and Digitamamon. Tai points out two cards this time ShogunGekomon and Kuwagamon "Funky one..." Joe makes an attempt "Maybe..."

Joe sorts the cards as he points out Gomamon, Elecmon, Agumon and Impmon "In-training..." Joe points to the next three cards Digitamamon, Unimon and Andromon "Rookie..." Joe points to the last three cards Drimogemon, ShogunGekomon and Kuwagamon "Champion?"

Matt scratches his head "Could it just be small one... Big one? How can we be sure? And we still don't have a clue which one is the fake one..."

Sora speaks up "Maybe it's where they live? Like Water... Land..."

Mimi comments "Maybe the keys in their names like... Agumon starts with A that's letter number one! Then um... No it won't work... Uh... Izzy?" I interject "Actually..." I blink "Can I make a suggestion?" Tai smiles "Go for it!"

I point out "There's two common patterns if you look closely... Colour and type... I don't know the correct pattern but..."

I jumble the cards into separate groups "Joe was close but... The cards Go like this... First pattern is type..."

Rookie

Agumon

Impmon

Elecmon

Gomamon

Champion

Kuwagamon

Drimogemon

Unimon

Ultimate

Andromon

ShogunGekomon

Digitamamon

I point out the pairs "It's actually Rookie, Champion and Ultimate... I tap the cards "And then there's the colour combo or the type if you look closely at the type... When Izzy and I spoke to Gennai last night, while youse guys were asleep he mentioned Vaccine, Virus and Data types."

I move the cards into colour codes this time "Red, Blue and Green... Red is for Vaccine... Blue is for Virus and... Green is for Data!"

I tap out the three groups "Gomamon, Agumon, Andromon and Unimon are Vaccine. Impmon, Kuwagamon and ShogunGekomon are Virus. And... Elecmon, Digitamamon and Drimogemon is Data."

I tap the floor "As for order I have no clue... If it's a nine by nine combo from left to right or top to bottom is Rookie to Ultimate or that could be reversed. And then whichever side is used second you can have Data, Virus and Vaccine in at least 27 different orders..."

Joe whines "So many different combinations..." I nod "Which brings Izzy into play... He could figure out the combination... And I think he already has..." Izzy taps the pedestal "Myotismon used a spell to open the gate. And I think this picture has something to do with it. Some of this characters I know... Sagittarius and Leo are signs of the Zodiac... But there's nothing about a monkey in any horoscope... And what's the significance of the star pattern..."

The castle starts to shake as T.K. yells "Matt what's that sound?!" Matt responds "I don't know..." I interject "Well whatever it is... It's bad news for us!"

Mimi complains someone should go find out. Patamon raises his hand "I'll go..." Patamon leaves as Tai groans "Come on guys we have to figure out the cards!" Sora nods "Yeah let's go!"

Joe points out "What's the point! We'll never unlock the gate!" Sora objects "Don't even say that Joe!" Joe sighs "What I mean is... Even if we put the cards in the right hole so they look right... We have no way of knowing until it's too late!"

Matt yells "We have to try Joe!"

Something collapses as Tai yells "Something tells me that we have no time!" Patamon comes back "Hey everyone! The walls and ceiling have collapsed and the castle is caving in! The passages are all blocked!"

Matt groans in frustration "That means we can't go back the way we came in... We're trapped!" Izzy speaks up "Now we have to open the gate! One of us has to choose nine cards and put them in the holes and that will be that!"

Joe speaks up "It's up to you Tai it's your call!"

Tai freaks out "Me...? Why is it up to me?" Joe points out smiling "I'm not trying to put you on the spot or anything like that... I just think we all really believe in you... Tai!"

Tai stands there in total shock "Me...?" Matt nods "Joe's right! In times like these, decisions need to be made by the one in charge!" Tai retorts "Have you guys gone mad! Who made me leader?!"

Matt groans "Do you really want to know? Do you remember when you we're gone Tai? We fell apart without you around! And after all that weren't you the one who managed to bring us all back together again?"

I point out "His right about that..." Tai responds dumb folded "Um yeah... I guess..." Mimi yells "Just do it Tai! I just want to get back to my home! That's all...!" Mimi turns around attitude wise "Uh oh... I was being selfish again I gotta remember we are a team so go ahead Tai save the day!"

Sora nods "Yeah we have to believe in our friends! Remember what Gennai said...?" Matt nods "Yeah! He said to believe in our power... You believe don't ya... Tai?" Tai grumbles "Maybe..."

I click my fingers "Come on! We've been through the thick and thin together there no point to not believing in each other now..." I think "Even though that makes me a hypocrite right now..." Joe nods "Yeah... If we hadn't stuck together we would've never beat Seadramon!"

Matt yells "Or smashed Tyrannonmon!" Mimi comments "Or escaped from Toy Town!" Joe grumbles "And I would still be making French fries in Veggiemon's Diner if you hadn't saved me! You can do it Tai!"

The group yells together "You can do it Tai!" Tai smiles nodding "Alright!" He makes his way over "So you're leaving it up to me to get this gate open... Right? And whatever I decide is the best way you all willing to go along with it?"

We nod together "Uh huh..." Tai smiles turning to us "Well... I've decided I want Izzy to do it!" Izzy freaks out "What?!"

I point out "Of all of us you are the most logical... You have an intelligent mind that would be able to narrow the pattern down to a few numbers..." Matt nods "I have to agree! With Tai on this you're the best choice for this... Tai believes in you as so do the rest of us..."

Izzy freaks out "What happens if I'm wrong about this..." I murmur "We'll go down together then... And I don't mean that in a harsh way... I mean... Think about it this way. Your better at something like this then if you were to combined the rest of us together in one mind... I can spot patterns but when it comes to combos... I'm a last resort!"

Tai nods "You're the best one for the job Izzy..." Izzy grumbles looking over the pedestal "I still don't know how this fits together..." Motimon interjects "Maybe you can use your computer to help figure this out!"

Izzy sighs "I rather use it right now to log onto the internet and book us a flight out of here..."
