Chapter 37
Kirsty followed Sorcermon away from Ophanimon.
"Sorcermon can please tell me where are you taking me?"
"To an escape Trailmon." He replied. "You must get on that and find those kids."
"Is Seraphimon going to be alright?" Kirsty asked.
"I'm not sure." Sorcermon replied.
"It's my fault that he got hurt." Kirsty said. "If I just listened to him then he wouldn't have gotten hurt."
"It isn't your fault Kirsty." Sorcermon said. "After you left Seraphimon encased himself in crystal to wait for the Legendary Warriors to come back to free him."
Kirsty looked at the D – Tector in her hands and thought of her mother.
She put the D – Tector in the pocket of her pants and nodded.
She promised her Mother that she wouldn't look back and that is what she is going to do.
"I will. I will find those kids and help them." Kirsty replied. "You don't have to worry about a thing. I will not fail."
Sorcermon nodded. "I believe in you Kirsty. We all do. Remember that. We are all very proud of you. But I'm afraid that you can't come back here. It will be too dangerous for you to do that. I'm sorry Kirsty."
Kirsty nodded. "I understand Sorcermon."
Kirsty hugged Sorcermon one last time and jumped onto the Trailmon. "Thank you Sorcermon and goodbye. Take care of Ophanimon and Seraphimon if you can. I want you to do something for me."
"What?"
"Protect Seraphimon from evil." Kirsty replied. "Don't let anything evil inside the castle. Especially Cherubimon. Will you do this for me?"
Sorcermon nodded.
As Trailmon left Sorcermon yelled. "I will. Good luck Mistress."
Kirsty smiled sadly. "Don't call me Mistress." She whispered.
She saw Sorcermon smile.
Kirsty got off the Trailmon when it stopped.
She had arrived at the Forest Terminal.
She turned to the Trailmon and said. "Thank you Trailmon."
As trailmon left Kirsty looked around.
She spotted four kids sitting on some benches looking very confused.
Kirsty looked at them in wonder.
She had never seen other humans before up until now.
'These must be the kids that Ophanimon was talking about.' She thought. 'I've never seen another human up close before.'
She took a deep breathe and walked towards them. "Hello my name is Kirsty. May I know your names?"
"My name is Jessie and these are my friends Anna, Luke and Zach."
"Can you tell us where we are?" Luke asked as he looked around.
"You're in the digimon world." Kirsty replied.
"Digimon world?" Zach said.
Kirsty nodded.
"So how long have you been here?" Anna asked.
"I've been here all my life. I was born here." Kirsty replied.
"Really!" Jessie replied.
Kirsty nodded.
"So you know this place more then we do. What are we doing here?" Zach asked.
"You're here to restore the digital world by finding your Digi Spirits. Will you do that?"
Jessie nodded. "We will."
Kirsty beamed. "Thank you."
"Hello." Came a voice.
They turned to see a young girl just getting off a Trailmon.
"My name is Lucy. May I join you? I don't know anything about this world or why am even here. I'm scared of being alone in this strange place."
Kirsty gasped.
She knew who it was.
'Mother.' She thought. 'I know that's her.'
Lucy (Ophanimon) turned to Kirsty and quickly put a finger to her lips to stop her from saying anything.
"Yeah sure." Jessie said.
Lucy smiled. "Great."
Later on that night they made camp.
Lucy got up and started walking away from the camp.
Kirsty followed after her.
When they were well away from the others Kirsty said. "Mother what are you doing here?"
"I'm not really here. This body isnt real. I was captured by Cherubimon after you ran away but I manged to escape."
"Where are you now?"
"Inside your D – Tectors."
Kirsty brought out her D – Tector to look at it. "Can you get out?" she asked as she looked up at Lucy.
Ophanimon sighed and shook her head. "No I can't. I'm trapped. This body will soon disappear. I love you Kirsty never forget that. But before I go I must to tell you something."
Kirsty nodded. "What is it?"
"In the future if you ever see Seraphimon or I again act like you don't know us. Please. That will keep us a secrect. Act like I was your friend."
Kirsty nodded once more and hugged her. "I will. I understand. I love you mother."
"Goodbye my angel. Remember that I will always be with you." Ophanimon said as she disappered.
Kirsty walked slowly back to the camp.
"Hey where's Lucy?" Anna asked.
"She had to go."
"She shouldn't be going out on her own." Zach said. "It might be dangerous."
"Don't worry." Kirsty said. "She said that she can take care of herself."
