December 6th, 2005 Saturday
Mimi:
"Attention all passengers of flight 893, this is your pilot speaking. I would like to inform you that we will be landing in Odaiba in the next hour and a half. Please buckle in your seats and enjoy the landing", the intercom announced. I can't help but squirm in my seat in anticipation.
This is it, I'm finally gonna be able to see everyone again...especially him. "I can't wait to show them all the cool souvenirs that I've brought from America", I exclaim as I stare out the window.
In the middle of the Digital World:
In the temple of the Digimon Sovereigns which floated high above the clouds, a meeting was going between the remaining members on what to do about the spreading darkness. "We need to do something about this damn darkness and fast!", Baihumon shouted. All the Sovereigns were present except for Zhuqiaomon, who territory was shrouded in darkness.
"Baihumon is correct! We need a plan of attack to stop whatever's doing this", Azulongmon exclaimed.
"I second that ladde, otherwise we could find ourselves in some deep trouble", Ebonwumon said. A gigantic portal then appeared in the center of the temple, revealing Huanglongmon face. The three Sovereigns all backed away in fear as the enormous dragon's voice echoed throughout the temple.
"All we can do now is wait for Gennai to assemble the DigiDestined once more!"
Each of the four Sovereigns govern parts of the Digital World. Ebonwumon of the North, Zhuqiaomon of the South, Azulongmon of the East and Baihumon of the West. Their leader Huanglongmon oversees the entire Digital World and is the most revered digimon in all of history.
Ebonwumon takes the form of a giant turtle with a tree for its shell and two heads. Zhuqiaomon is a giant, red bird with a flaming design and a cannon on his back. Azulongmon appearance is a long, light clear blue dragon with chains all over it's body and small wings. He also has a yellow and blue mask along with a long grey beard. Baihumon is a giant white tiger with purple stripes all over it's body, a purple mask with long horns coming out of it's mouth and silver bracelets. Huanglongmon is a giant golden dragon with scales covering it's entire body and six long horns on it's sides which shoot upwards. While Huanglongmon have eight shining red eyes, the rest of the Sovereigns have four.
Before the conversation could go on any longer, the doors of the temple suddenly blew open, covering it in smoke and debris. "Look at what we have here. Four Sovereigns neglecting their duty of keeping the Digital World in check!", A voice hissed. When the smoke cleared, the Sovereigns were surprised to see a human and digimon standing in the doorway.
"YOU!", all the Sovereigns shouted.
"I bet you didn't expect this? I mean your expressions were the same as Zhuqiaomon when we raided his castle. Too bad your completely helpless before our power", the man smirked as he pointed to his partner. The man had tan skin, short dark hair and a black robe on. The digimon next him had bat wings with three blood red claws on each wing and white curved horns on each side of it's head. It was wrapped up in a red cloaked with a silver medallion, the only thing you could see beyond the cloak was it's glowing blue eyes.
"GENNAI, WHAT IS THE MEANING OF ALL THIS!", Baihumon shouted.
"It's simply really, the Digital World doesn't need the supervision of gods anymore. Your services are no longer needed", the digimon announced before Gennai had a chance to speak.
"I would've thought those kids sealed you away three years ago", Azulongmon exclaimed as he stared at the digimon.
"DON'T REMIND ME OF THE TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE I ENDURED THANKS TO THOSE BRATS! Once we're done here, I plan on making them pay dearly", The digimon voice bounces throughout the walls of the temple.
"Your the two ladde's responsible for this conundrum!?", Ebonwumon asked angry.
"BINGO! Too bad you won't be around long enough to stop us", Gennai snarled as a golden energy ball started forming in his hands.
"I've felt this energy somewhere before. Could it be?", Baihumon looked in shock as he stared at Gennai.
"So, it looks like that ancient prison those ten sealed you in wasn't strong enough to hold you forever!", Huanglongmon announced.
"Not entirely! Although my body is still sealed in the sarcophagus, I honed my mind to its utmost limit. In only a matter of days, I shall walk among the Digital World once more!", Gennai started laughing maniacally.
"You've think you won. The DigiDestined will defeat you in our place!", Azulongmon shouted.
"Oh I wouldn't worry about them too much where you four are going. As for the DigiDestined, I've got some people who would love to see them again", Gennai grinned. The golden ball of energy began to grow bigger with each passing second.
"If only she could see you now, she would be so disappointed in what you've become", Huanglongmon exclaims sadly.
"Your time is up gods. Sink into the abyss". Gennai then fired the energy ball, which started heading straight in Huanglongmon's direction. Before the ball collided with him, eight shining colorful lights sprouted forth through the top of the temple and headed to the Continent of server.
After the explosion occurred, Gennai and the digimon were the only one's standing in the rubble of the temple. "What do we do now? The gods are no longer a threat to us", the digimon exclaimed.
"That should be obvious, since phase one is complete we move on to phase two. Soon enough, we'll have this whole world eating out the palm of our hands", Gennai smiled.
"What about the DigiDestined? You can be sure they'll try to stop us!"
"What about them? That's what our recruits are for". A dark aura then began to envelop Gennai, who then shot it through the roof of the temple. The aura then began to spread throughout the entire sky.
"It won't be long now DigiDestined", a sinister smile found it's way upon Gennai's face.
Sora:
I haven't had a goodnight's sleep like that in ages. Maybe it's because I slept over at Tai's house, or because...I slept on his shoulder. When I open my eyes to take in the warm rays of the sun, I wasn't expecting to find myself in Tai's bed with him half naked and my hands around his waist.
I immediately lean back and end up falling on the floor with a loud thud. "Looks like your finally up sleepyhead", Kari voice scares me. I jump all the up to see Kari and T.K by Tai's computer laughing.
"Just what's funny you two!?", I ask irritated.
"Oh nothing. Just watching you and my brother so close together is kinda cute", Kari says trying to suppress her laughter.
"Hope you don't mind Sora, but we also took pictures for posterity", T.K grins as he holds up a digital camera. I can't help but get really upset, then again it is my fault for falling into their trap. I then see them laughing and I can't help but start to laugh with them.
God, I don't know what it is about the Kamiya household, but it's just so lively being around Kari and Tai. Speaking of Tai, I can't help but be shocked at how clean his room is, almost spotless.
"(Yawn) man can't a guy try to get a nice peaceful rest around here", Tai says putting a pillow over his face.
"No can do Taichi. Remember we still have to pick up Mimi. Plus you and Sora slept way too late", Kari chuckles at the last part. When Tai finally decides to stand up, I can't help but totally stare at him in complete awe, like a little child who parent's said they'll get them anything they want.
He has the most incredible body that I've ever seen. He has a light four pack and his skin is perfectly tan all around. He has well developed muscles and even a...well developed jaw.
"One of you guys need to go ahead in the shower. T.K and I already had our showers, so we're waiting for you two". I don't even realize that Kari is talking, because I'm to engrossed on Tai right now.
Luckily, he doesn't even know that I'm looking at him, because he's too busy listening to what Kari is saying.
"SORA DID YOU HEAR ME!", Kari yells in my ear.
"Huh, Kari you don't have to yell. I'm right next to you", I rub my eardrums.
"Oh really, well since your next to me, what was the last thing I said?". How'd I know she was gonna say that. Man, now I don't have anything to say and when I look over I see Tai chuckling.
"Um, you was saying how much you love me", I say rather nervously.
"Wrong, you said Mimi should be arriving at the airport at 12:30 right?". I slowly nod my head, "Exactly so we need to get a move on, so hurry", Kari threatens both of us. Wow, I never knew Kari had a temper. She's even scarier than Myotismon.
"Wow Kari, maybe you should be the leader instead of Tai. You certainly have the attitude for it", T.K nudges her ribs. This cause a burst of laughter to erupt through the room as Kari's face begins to turn bright red.
"You should hop in the shower first Sora, It's gonna take me a little while because of all this hair", Tai jokes. Before I can say anything, I'm immediately getting dragged to the bathroom by an impatient Kari.
Davis:
Life can be so great sometimes. Not having a care in the world, while just being yourself. Well, a handsome devil such as myself is used to this daily lifestyle. Although I'm mostly picked on because of my dullness, I'm actually pretty smart when the time calls for it.
I'm not gonna lie and say these past two years were the greatest, but they was somewhat average. I just hope the end of this year will be finally be my time to ask the famous Kari Kamiya to become my girlfriend. She truly is a rare jewel worthy of her greatness. Her porcelain skin, light brown hair that reaches to her shoulders and playful ruby eyes that could bring so much joy to somebody, or make somebody wish you was staring at the devil himself.
But unfortunately for every pretty girl, there's a rival that always competing with you for said person's affection. Mine comes in the form of a young blonde boy that goes by the name of Takeru Takaishi or T.K for short. Sure all the girls think he's cute, athletic and has a nice personality, but he couldn't be anymore cockier. Those two have history that I'll never be able to compete with, being best friends and all that saved the Digital World not once but twice.
Hell even their digimon are basically the same once they transform, from a cat and a guinea pig with wings to mighty angels. That won't stop me though, I'll win her fair and square or my name isn't Daisuke Motomiya.
Before I'm able to continue ranting about the love of my life, I suddenly find myself snapped out of my thoughts by the impact of a soccer ball directly to the back of my skull.
When I turn around, all I see is my best friend smirking as he picks up the ball. "Ken, what the hell was that for!?", I hiss towards the dark blue-haired boy standing right behind me.
"Because you wasn't paying any attention to what I was saying. At least this got your attention", he smirks. You know at one point of another, I would've wanted to strangle the life out of this kid, to bring his inflated ego down a notch.
But that was before I realized that underneath that dark, exterior shell was just a depressed teen who just wanted some friends. Naturally when I welcomed him into our "little family", I was greeted with skeptical looks and stubbornness. Over time though, the wounds slowly healed and now I would place my life in this guy's hand.
"So, what do you think so could be important that Izzy called a DigiDesined meeting?", Ken's voice snaps me out of my thoughts.
"Hm, well if I had to guess, I would say it has something to do with the Digital World. Knowing how crazy that place can get, I wouldn't be surprised if some evil digimon is threatening the place. Anymore question...your Highness?", I chuckle at that last part.
It also comes to my attention how Ken's playful demeanor turns into an serious expression. Having some fun at his leverage wouldn't hurt.
"Davis how many times do I have to tell you not to call me that", Ken gives me an icy glare.
"Whatever do you mean your Majesty?", I smile inwardly as we continue walking to our destination.
Matt:
I thought I had everything you could ever need in your life. A wonderful job where crazed fan girls are always at your heels, a somewhat semi-loving family, terrific friends and most importantly, a loving girlfriend. Too bad one of those turned out to be a false reality.
As I'm walking through Odaiba, on my way to Izzy house, my mind can't help but drift off towards two certain people. Letting the cool, winter air tug along my face isn't exactly helping either, because it's just making me think back to that faithful day: The day Sora and I asked each other out.
Even though we broke up ten months ago, the scars are still there. The scars of a broken heart that was led on for three years before she admitted that she didn't love me. I knew what was the cause for this sudden change in attitude: Taichi. Tai is my best friend, heck he's like my brother.
Although we tend to disagree on most subjects, the bond we share is one that can never be broken. Even when he wanted to be discreet with his emotions, there was one thing he couldn't hide that the rest of our group could see: his love for Sora.
I for one, payed closely attention to those two, so I was kinda surprised when I received a box of cookies with a letter written inside. I can still remember the letter clear as day, especially the emotions I was feeling when I finished reading it.
To Yamato,
Hope you like the cookies I made
Their filled with love
Just like my heart for you
Your number one fan
From Sora
I never though I would hear those words come for Sora. So the only rational thing I did was confront Sora before the concert, guest starring yours truly. I had to admit, I had a crush on her during the reign of the Digimon Emperor, but I didn't have the courage to tell her, apparently neither than Tai.
Can you imagine Tai, Bearer of the Crest of Courage, too scared to tell a girl how he feels. That's pretty ironic, considering that I hold the Crest of Friendship, even when I wasn't being a good friend. I kinda knew that those two liked each other, but I butted in because of my own feelings.
All this makes me wonder why we were even given the Crests in the first place. Sure their were some who lived up to their Crests name.
Like Izzy for example, having the Crest of Knowledge and he's the smartest, plus the wisest person I know, aside from Gennai. He could possibly make a mega triple trigonometry equation look like a simple 1+1=2 problem. Then there's Joe, being the older and most mature of the group, he was blessed with the Crest of Reliability. I'm still trying to figure out a way to repay the debt I owe him. He's the reason why T.K is still alive. If it wasn't for him, T.K would've been MegaSeadramon's morning snack.
Then there's the spoiled pink princess herself: Mimi. She's one of the only people that can get on my nerves with her incessant whining. But her holding the Crest of Sincerity isn't a joke, she can say whatever's on her mind to anybody and not care. Now we move on to my little brother T.K, who holds one of the most powerful Crest: the Crest of Hope. That title really does belong to him, because he's one of the only people who can give all of us hope. So optimistic about life, when he's feeling hopeless, it spreads to all of us like a contagious disease.
Last but not least is Tai's little sister, Kari. She's so bubbly and innocent, so pure of heart and compassionate. Always willing to help those in need without thinking about the consequences that can befall her. It's no wonder she holds the Crest of Light, the strongest Crest of all.
Now it just comes down to me, Tai and Sora. Bearers of Friendship, Courage and Love. Maybe we were meant to have these Crest for a specific reason. Maybe more so on a emotional level, where only the true wielder can understand the effects.
That still leaves me to answer the question that's been troubling ever since I met that twisted, wicked overgrown tree bark Cherrymon, six years ago: Am I the true wielder of the Crest of Friendship?
Before I'm able to come up with an explanation, I suddenly come across a familiar tall, dark blue-haired boy right across the street from me, looking completely clueless as always.
Joe:
Why does this always have to happen to me y'know? Why couldn't I just live my life like a normal human being? Just when I thought things were getting back on track, I get a call from Izzy blabbering in my ear about the Digital World.
"Hello, Kido's residence", Mrs. Kido chirped.
"Um hi Mrs. Kido. My name is Izzy, I'm a really good friend of Joe's. Sorry to intrude but I was hoping to speak to Joe for just one moment", Izzy said embarrassed.
"Just one second dear", Mrs Kido said as she covered the mouth piece. "JOE, SOME BOY NAMED IZZY IS ON LINE FOR YOU", Mrs. Kido yelled.
After a few shuffling noises from Joe's side of the line, the two began to catch up on old times before getting into business.
"That sounds horrible and all Izzy, but I'm afraid I can't make it. I still have mountain loads of studying to do before my tests that are coming up in a few months", Joe said as he shuffled through his notes.
"Aww c'mon Joe. Everybody's going to be there. Besides the Digital World really needs all of us and your test aren't till a few more months as you said. Remember as DigiDestined, we have a sworn duty to uphold the peace in both worlds", Izzy exclaimed half serious half playfully.
"Man, I hate it when he's right, which is almost always", Joe thinks.
"So what's it going to be?"
"All right, all right you've made your point. I'll see if I can swing by for a while", Joe sighed as he gived in to Izzy's pleading.
"Finally, I thought I would be waiting all night. I must inform you that the meeting is going to be at my house around 1:30-2:00."
"Fine, I'll be there!"
I should've just said no. Then again seeing everybody again would be a treat. If we play our cards just right, I might get to see Gomamon again. I don't know why, but I kinda miss his jokes about my glasses and how we used to be at each others necks.
Before I'm able to ponder on my thoughts longer, I suddenly fell a hand wrap around my mouth. Just my luck, the day I stop studying is the day somebody would try to rob me.
Remembering some classes I took last year, I immediately jab my elbow into the man's ribs. Feeling his grip on me loosen a little bit, I grab his arm and twist it behind his back before thrusting him forward into a brick wall. "All right pal, what's t-", I'm interrupted by the man.
"All right Joe you got me. Geez I'll never do it again", a familiar voice says. I'm baffled when I see none other than Matt in the position I got him.
"Matt, what the hell are you doing sneaking up on me like that?!"
"Just wanted to prank you. Remind me to never scare you again", Matt winces.
"You got that right! Anyway's what are you doing here?", I ask intrigued.
"Um, before I answer that question, would you mind releasing me from your death lock", he winces again.
"Oh sorry about that", I say as I release him.
"Geez, when did you learn how to do that!?", Matt ask rubbing his arm.
"I might've took one or two classes last year. You really shouldn't sneak up on people like that. If I added a little bit more pressure, I could've broken your arm and three of your ribs", I start scolding him.
"Good to know, actually I saw you across the street. I guess you didn't see me or hear my footsteps. Anyways back to your last question, I'm on my way to Izzy's house for the meeting. I take it you are too?"
"You are correct my friend", I laugh.
Cody:
"C'mon Cody, hurry it up or we're gonna be late for the meeting!", a girl with lavender hair yells at me.
"You should really try to calm down Yolei. We still have half an hour before the meeting starts and we're five blocks away from Izzy's house", I say crossing my arms.
"Sorry, it's just that I'm so excited to see Ken again. I haven't seen him in ages", she says emotional. Sometimes I wonder how me and her are even friends. Her personality is the total opposite of mine. Yolei is outspoken, sometimes annoying, smart, compassionate and short-tempered.
I on the other hand am shy, smart (not as smart as Yolie though), quiet, determined and collected with my thoughts. Most people say I'm too wise and mature for my age, but I don't see the harm in it. I guess it's a coincidence, considering that I hold the Digi-eggs of the two most wisest and maturest DigiDestined.
"Yolie, you saw Ken like three weeks ago. Your acting like it's been years since you last saw him", I sigh to myself.
"That's the thing though, It feels like I haven't seen him in years", she squeals. I also forgot that she can be very dramatic. "Don't worry Cody, you'll understand when you get older", she says ruffling my hair. Ugh, why do everybody assume that even though I'm young, that I don't understand the problems of adolescent.
"Anyway's, where do you think T.K was at? Considering that he wasn't home today?", Yolie asks.
"Remember what his mom told us. She say T.K spent the night over at Tai and Kari's house. I wouldn't be surprised if those three came together", I exclaim fixing my hair.
"Oh yeah, anyway's let's get a move on!", Yolie yells.
"Yolie, I thought I told yo-AAH!", I'm interrupted when Yolie grabs my arm and makes a mad dash towards Izzy's house, basically dragging me.
Tai:
"Tai, don't you think your going a little bit to fast?", Sora asks gripping onto the car seat in fear.
"Trust me Sora, my brother drives like this all the time. You'll get used to it", Kari says in the backseat.
"Thank you Kari, at least somebody appreciates my driving", I give Sora a playful smile. She just glares at me, before gripping back onto the seat.
"I'm just surprised we caught all the lights before they turned red", T.K exclaims excited in the backseat next to Kari. I really don't understand what's so serious about my driving.
I'm only driving fast so we can make it in time for Mimi's homecoming. I actually can't wait to see the pink princess again. I almost miss her constant whining and her tendency to ask a lot of ridiculous questions.
"All right we're here. Mimi should've landed by now", I say parking the car.
"I'll stay in the car with T.K. We can listen to music together", Kari smiles at me.
"All right then, Tai and I will go in and bring Mimi back", Sora says as she gets out the car.
"You two better not try anything while we're gone!", I say menacingly. They both instantly go stiff when I say that. I guess it doesn't help also that I'm giving them a glare that makes the hair's on the back of their necks stand up.
"Aw, finally off that stuffy plane. Now where is that bag", Mimi says stretching her arms. After finding her bag, Mimi sat down on the chair and waiting for her best friend.
"Oh where is she? Don't she know it's rude to keep a girl waiting", Mimi thinks as she taps her foot impatiently. Suddenly, her ears perk up when she hears the sound of a familiar voice call her name.
"Mimi?", Sora asks walking up the the girl.
"Sora", Mimi says grappling her bag and walking towards her.
Soon the whole airport was filled with squeals as the two best friends hugged each other. Typical, they don't even know I'm here.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! Oh my god how are you?", Sora asks.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! It's been so long since I've seen you", Mimi exclaims.
"Okay you go first!", they both say at the same time. The two girls began to laugh, before Mimi decides to speak first.
"Sora you look so beautiful! Your hair grew longer since the last time I saw you", Mimi says admiring my figure.
"You think so? I feel like I've stayed the same. Anyway's speaking of beauty, you look terrific Mimi. Life has been good to you", Sora smiles.
"What did you expect? When your as gorgeous as I am, age will never take a toll on you", Mimi laughs. Alright, I'm getting a little tired of these two thinking I'm made out of thin air.
"Why, has the pink princess come to grace us with her presence", I happily remark.
"Oh my god Taichi is that you?!", she asks me. I can't help but wince once she calls my full name. Usually when someone calls me by my full name, that usually means I did something stupid and their mad at me, or their just really happy.
"At you service m'lady", I say taking a mock bow. I'm surprised how she practically jumps in my arms and gives me a small peck on the cheek. I gotta say, she looks way different since when I last saw her.
Her hair is the same chestnut brown and she has small cross bangs blocking her forehead, but what she's wearing would have any man after her. She's wearing a pink skirt, with a white shirt that says "LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST" and pink jacket, with a pair of white shoes.
Staring at her with awe, I look through the corner of my to see Sora giving me and her a glare before going back to her normal face.
"Wow, you look terrific Meems!", I smile.
"Thank you Tai. You look pretty handsome yourself", Mimi says as she bats her eyelashes playfully.
"ALRIGHT! We should really get a move on if we're gonna make it to the meeting on time", Sora says interrupting our playful flirting.
"Oh yeah, let's get a move on. You really don't want to see Izzy when he's mad", I laugh nervously.
"Meeting? What meeting?", Mimi asks confused.
"Believe me, I said the same thing. One of the others will fill you in on the way there."
"Others?"
Just as Mimi said that, I see T.K and Kari on the hood of the car listening to music. "What do you think this is, Make-out Point. Get off my car!", I say a little irritated.
"Oops, sorry bro. Anyway's Mimi it's so good to see you!", Kari says walking up to the girl. After exchanging greetings with T.K and Kari, the five now stood outside of the car.
"Alright, how are we gonna do this. Fit five people into a four-seater car?", I put my hands on my temples.
"Well, T.K and I was talking and we think we have a s...solution", Kari stutters.
"Go on", I motion her.
"W...w...well you s...s...see", she continues to stutter. What's up with her. I've never seen her act like this.
"What she was saying was, that she can sit...on my lap while Mimi takes her seat", T.K finishes for her. By now my face is completely red and it's not hard to tell that I'm a little pissed off.
"WWWWHHHHHAAAATTTT!"
Izzy:
"Okay, let's see what's going on with you", I type a few words on my trusty laptop and an entire map of the entire Digital World pops up. I can't help but notice a slight anomaly on the map.
"Hmm, wait a minute, that wasn't there before", my eyes can't help but scan over the entire Digital World, which is almost entirely black.
The only part that is still normal is a little continent that I felt like I've seen before and a small island. Before I'm able to research further into this, I hear a knock on the door and my mom's voice.
"Izzy, some of your friends are here", my mom opens the door.
"Thanks mom. You can just let them in", I smile at her.
"Hey Izzy!Long time no see", Yolie chirps with an out of breath Cody on her arm.
"Oh...um hey guys. Don't you think your a bit early? The meeting doesn't start for like another...uh twenty minutes", I say glancing at my digital clock.
"Sorry Izzy, this would've never had happen if a certain someone wasn't rushing here to see someone else. I tried to warn her, but you know Yolie", Cody says glaring at her and dusting himself off. I can't help but chuckle at how different they are, yet they get along perfectly.
"There's no need to apologize. In fact...maybe you...uh...can help me with something". They nod before I continue, "Y'see...my uh mom...needs help in the kitchen", but before I can even continue, Yolie makes a mad dash for the kitchen.
Cody just shrugs as he watched the girl leave. "Guess that just leaves me and you. I was kinda hoping she would go. Not that I don't find Yolie nice, it's just her tendency to overreact. Besides, you'll be able to help me in this field of work", I motion him to my laptop.
Ten minutes later, Matt and Joe walk through the door. After greeting both of them, I motion Joe to the laptop so he can give us his views on the situation, with Matt just hanging on my bed.
"This is very interesting Izzy. What's going on here?", Joe says putting his hand under his chin.
"Izzy, what are we looking at?", Cody asks me.
"Truth be told Cody, I'll have to save my thoughts on the topic until the rest of the gang gets here. But if it's what I think it is, it won't be pretty for both the worlds", I lean back in my chair with my eyes glued on the screen.
"What are you guys talking about? What exactly is wrong with the Digital World", Matt says coming up from his laying position.
Before I'm able to say anything, the door swings open and a out of breath Davis and Ken enter the house, all covered in sweat. When I asked them why they was drenched in sweat, they simply replied at the same time: "Race! He...asked for...it."
As soon as Yolie heard the "Angelic" voice of Ken, she immediately rushed out the kitchen and gave him a big hug, not caring if he was all sweaty. Ken was a little taken back by this gesture, until Joe and I made a hugging gesture with our arms. "Oh look what we have here. When did the zoo let the animals go free ?", Davis smirks widely. Unfortunately, I wished he would've whispered it. The next thing I know, Matt and I are holding Yolie by her arms so she won't attack him.
"Oh hello boys, don't worry the chocolate cookies are almost done. Yolie I...uh...need your help back in the kitchen". Mrs. Izumi smiles, completely oblivious to the little scene. Before Yolie goes back to the kitchen, I can't help but laugh when Davis face instantly pales when Yolie walks past him.
I then hear her mutter something along the lines of "This isn't over Motomiya. Watch your back!"
"Must you always antagonize her Davis", Joe scolds him.
"Who cares about her. Did you hear your mom Izzy, she's making cookies!", Davis replies enthusiastically as he rubs his stomach.
"Of course I did Davis. I'm the one who told her to make them!", I slap my forehead.
"Let's head back into the room and wait for the others", Matt exclaims as he heads back to my room.
After fifteen minutes, there still no sign of them. "ARRGGH! Where are they? The fate of both worlds are on the line and they can't even get here on time", I run my hands through my spiky hair in frustration.
"Whoa Izzy, don't bust a gut. I just finished texting T.K and everything's fine. He said him, Kari, Tai and Sora are a block away. He also says they has a surprise that he wouldn't tell me", Matt says.
"What happened to the good old days where we was all a team?", Joe asks.
"We just got all wrapped up in our own personal lives and can't make time for each other", Cody explains somewhat sadly.
"All of us were able to get here on time though. Heck even Davis was able to get here!", Ken smirks.
"HEY! Since when have I ever been late before", Davis argues.
Before I can open my mouth to retort a sentence that his tiny brain can't even comprehend, there's a knock on the door which Ken goes to answer. He soon comes in with four people. "You do realize that the meeting started twenty minutes ago", I say tapping my finger on my desk.
"Sorry Izzy for being late, but I swear it was for an important reason", Tai scratches his head nervously.
With lightning fast reflexes, Davis gently grabs Kari's hand and kisses the back of Kari's hand. "Why Hikari, your looking as ravishingly as always", Davis smirks at her. Some of the others, including myself can't help but laugh at these two when Kari's face turns ten shades redder like a tomato and Davis for playing Romeo.
T.K just rolls his eyes and steps in between the two. He then playfully kisses Davis on the cheek. "Urk T.S, what the hell's your problem!?", Davis groans as he wipes his cheek.
"Why Davis, how could you cheat on me with Kari?! I loved you so much", T.K says with a fake frown on his face. This causes the rest of us to burst out into laughter at this little scene.
"Sora, it's nice too see you again", Matt says approaching his ex.
"Oh...uh...M...Matt! It's uh...great to see you too", Sora says bashfully.
"C'mon Sora, just cause we broke up doesn't mean things have to be awkward for us. We can still be great friends", Matt chuckles. Sora just briefly nods and the two firmly shakes hands.
That's when it happens. Tai and Matt lock eyes with each others. Suddenly it feels like the room just got twenty degrees colder as the two begin walking towards each other without breaking their icy though, the two are just mere inches away from each other and at this point even I don't know what's going to happen. It feels like eternity though since the staring contest begun even though it's only been a few minutes. Soon though, time seems to freeze as the two fists races towards each others face. I can't help but get a little scared at how what's gonna happen when these two start fighting. One look at the other and I can tell that their thinking the same thing. But then the unexpected happens, their fists stop in front of their face and they smile at each other.
"It's great to see you man", Tai says as he grabs hold of Matt's hand.
"Same to you pal", Matt says doing the same thing. We're all completely dumbfounded as the two begin to laugh at our expressions.
"Oh, I almost forgot our little surprise. I'll be right back", Tai says leaving the room.
"Hey bro, mind filling me in on the surprise you guys have", Matt whispers to T.K.
T.K just shakes his head slowly. "Na uh uh! That'll spoil the surprise. You'll just have to wait like everyone else!"
"In any case, we need to get back the problem a-", a high pitched voice interrupts me.
"Tai, you have a lot of nerve leaving me on the doorstep!", Mimi says entering the room.
"MIMI!", we all exclaim in complete shock.
"Guess who's back in town", Mimi spins around and playfully smiles. Everybody starts bombarding her with hugs and questions, while I calmly sit back and watch the show. I just can't work up the nerve to say anything to her. I mean she is my friend and all, but she's somehow different from the rest of the DigiDestined.
"Knock knock, is anyone home in there?", Mimi says directly in my face.
"AAAH! Mimi don't do that", I jump back in terror.
"Ha ha sorry Izzy. You just seemed kinda out of it. Anyways, how have you been?"
"Um...fine I guess", I shyly scratch the back of my head.
Before I can say anything else, Yolei and my mom comes through the door with two batches of fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and eleven glasses of nice cold milk. Soon enough, everybody else is eating to their heart's content, while I'm in my chair trying to figure out a solution to this damn problem. "So Tai, are you ready for that upcoming championship? I know I am!", Davis exclaim excitedly.
"You bet Davis, we're gonna destroy that team", Tai chirps as he takes a bite of his cookie.
"Davis, your on my brother's team? Your not in his school! Heck you don't even attend high school yet", Kari asks confused.
"I know, but Tai put in a good word for me with his coach. I showed them what I was made of, so they gladly accepted me."
"Wow so Ken, does that mean your on the team as well?", Yolei asked while staring in his eyes.
"Uh...no can do Yolei. Championships aren't really my thing anymore", Ken says backing up a little.
"Hey, we all should come to the game and cheer you two on. It'll be so much fun", Sora squeals.
"That sounds like a good idea. What say you Matt?", T.K exclaimed.
"Sure I'll come, but you guys have to come to my concert in exchange. The Teenage Wolves just came out with a new song", Matt exclaims as he drinks some of his milk.
"That sounds fair, when is it?", Joe asks.
"It's on Christmas. Man This'll be our biggest performance. I'm so excited!"
"Awe, I can't come. The game starts in the morning", Tai says as he rocks back and forth.
"We're in luck, because it starts at night. We should all have plenty of time", T.K says.
"Hey Izzy, come grab a cookie and take a seat. Before Tai and Davis eat most of them", Hikari slurps her milk
"No can do Kari. I'm in the middle of a breakthrough here and I don't have time to sit around. If I look away for even a second, the whole thing might go up in smoke!", I say a little frustrated. Everybody moans and groans as they continuously try to make me sit with them to no avail.
"All right that's enough! We're all worried about you Izzy, now your gonna eat", Mimi yells as she spins my chair and tries to put a cookie in my mouth. Man, she can be super frightening sometimes. Before she can though, a bright light and a loud noise starts erupting from my laptop.
"Izzy, what's happening!?", Mimi grips on to me.
"Yeah, what's going on!?", Yolei asks equally terrified.
"I don't know, but I'm assuming we're about to find out", I say shielding my eyes as the light gets brighter. Soon, we all shield our eyes until the light begins to die down.
"It's been a long time DigiDestined", a familiar voice says. When we all open our eyes, we're shocked to come face to face with a holographic Gennai smiling.
"Gennai, what are you doing here?", Davis says accidentally running through him. "Whoa! That was major freaky just now."
"Not at all Davis, it's just a hologram of him. He's not really here, right?", Ken questions him.
"You are correct Ken, but for the rea-", Yolei interrupts him.
"Still looking handsome as ever aren't you Gennai?"
"Uh getting back to the subject at hand. The reason I've...uh...Izzy called you all here today was to discuss the current situation about the Digital World", Gennai turns his back to us.
"We've all heard about the situation. We just don't have a lot of information to go on", Tai exclaims.
"You are correct leader of the Chosen Children. That is where I come in, to lend you the missing information you need", Gennai smiles.
"Gennai, I detected a strange anomaly in the Digital World. This has something to do with the strange darkness doesn't it?", I summarize my finding.
"I'm afraid so Izzy. You see Digidestined...the temple of the Harmonious Ones were attacked this morning", he looks over at our face with sadness before he continues.
"It was completely destroyed", This causes all of us to look at him with wide eyes and shocked expressions. None of us know how to proceed with this situation, until Matt decides to speak.
"What about the Sovereigns themselves? I mean sure their temple is destroyed, but they should've survived right?". We all nod our heads at this assumption, somewhat believing him.
"I'm afraid that is not the case Bearer of Friendship. The Sovereigns have been sealed away", Gennai says grimly.
"DAMMIT!", Tai yells as he plops on the bed. Sora then places a calm, gentle hand on his shoulder to reassure him. I can't help but feel the same way as him. Five of the most powerful digimon in all of existence sealed away like that.
"So that's why the strange anomaly happened", I mutter to myself. Unfortunately I wasn't able to stay quiet enough, because soon everybody is staring at me.
"What are you talking about Izzy?", Mimi asks me with her still gripping on to my arm. Normally it would be really weird if she was this close to me, but all my attention is suddenly focused on my screen.
"Maybe Gennai can explain a theory of mine", I re-direct everyone's attention back to the hologram.
"I see, you already have most of it figured. Well done Izzy", Gennai smiles.
"ENOUGH WITH THE SECRET CONVERSATION! JUST TELL US WHAT HAPPENED!?", Davis yells at both of us.
"Yeah, it's getting pretty annoying", T.K adds.
"Well you see, each one of the Sovereigns own a piece of the Digital World", everybody nods before I continue. "Well, when a Sovereign is sealed away their territory usually doesn't differ. But because this darkness is really abnormal, It's creating a chain of events."
"Izzy, would you please speak properly. Your confusing my brain!", Davis bellows.
"That's funny, you actually have a brain?", Yolei sarcastically remarks. This cause some of us to snicker, but Gennai immediately calls us back to attention.
"I'll take over from here Izzy. You see when the Sovereigns temple was attacked, the darkness immediately started to spread through the sky. It then descended down throughout the world, corrupting the landscape and turning it into a bleak version of itself. Even Yukio Oikawa spirit wasn't strong enough to stop it."
Cody then immediately tenses up as soon as he hears the name. Sure he was possessed by an enemy of ours, but he was the only remnant that Cody has of his father. Deep down, I know exactly how he feels. I then put a hand on his shoulder to let him know he's not alone.
"Fortunately for us, Baihumon of the West was able to send me one of his twelve digi-cores. I was able to use it's power to keep the darkness from reaching the shores of Server and File Island", Gennai explains.
"In English please", Davis once again sighs.
"Gennai used the power of one of the Sovereigns to save the Continent of Server and File Island. Is that simple enough for you genius!", Yolei sarcastically remarks.
"YOU WANNA GO FOUR-EYED FREAK!"
"BRING IT ON GOGGLE BOY!"
"ENOUGH YOU TWO! I"M SICK OF YOU GUYS ALWAYS ARGUING! SHUT UP ALREADY!", Ken shouts at both of them. Their mouths drop in awe, before looking at each other and sitting in silence.
"I'm sorry Gennai. Please continue", Ken squirms in his seat.
"Thank you Ken, anyways back to what I was saying before I was rudely interrupted", Gennai glares at Davis and Yolei before continuing. "I was able to save Server, but the villages here are still being attacked!"
'What does that have to do with us!", Mimi asks irritated.
"That's why the meeting here was called today. I need three people to come here to the Digital World tomorrow morning to make sure it's safe and protected", the hologram of Gennai begins to flicker a little.
"Wait a minute...you mean to tell us you called us here just so we can play police to a bunch of digimon who can probably defend themselves!", Matt voice fills with anger.
"Cool it Matt", Tai says.
"No Tai, I will not cool it! Gennai, your basically wasting our time. Your trying to have us save a few villages when we should be moving on to the real threat. We're the DigiDestined, not police!", Matt says a little frustrated.
"I said cool it Matt. Unless you want me to make you!"
"Oh Tai, is that a threat? I would sure as hell like to see you try!", Matt says turning to the brunette.
Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Joe runs in between the two teens to try to calm the situation. "Woah, woah, woah easy guys. Fighting among ourselves isn't going to help the Digital World!"
"He's right y'know, fighting with each other isn't going to help Patamon and our digimon", T.K exclaims.
"Please Tai, just calm down", Kari begs. The two feuding teens just shrug and look away from each other, while their siblings try to think positive. Looks like somethings will never change.
"How do we plan on getting there Gennai? The gate connecting to the Digital World has been closed for two years now", Cody states.
"The Sovereings thought of that Cody. So they was able to connect the human world and the Digital World once more."
"Gennai, what would happen if the darkness was able to overcome the barrier you put up?", I ask intrigued.
"Well if I had to take a wild guess, I would say that the Digital World will be destroyed. If it is destroyed, your world will be gone as well. Without the Digital World, the human world can't exist and vice-versa", Gennai says sadly.
"Like Yin and Yang. Without Yin there's no Yang and without Yang", Cody says but gets interrupted.
"There's no Yin", I sigh. Things aren't just going our way, especially with Tai and Matt arguing like kids.
"Anyway back to the topic at hand, three of you must venture here to put a stop to the ransacking villages. So any takers?", Gennai asks. Soon, the whole room is silent. This is a mountain load information to process and everybody is afraid to say something.
"I'll go", Tai says standing up.
"WHAT!? What are you talking about Tai...you can't go!", Sora says actually talking for the first time since the meeting started.
"It's just as I said, I'll go to the Digital World. Just because destroyed villages aren't a big deal, we're still the DigiDestined. It's our priority to uphold the peace between both worlds. Isn't that right Izzy?", Tai grins at me.
"I couldn't have said it better myself. Tai's right, we have a duty to protect even the smallest things in both worlds", I smile.
"Wow, who knew that Izzy had a heroic streak to him", T.K smirks.
"I think he's pretty cute when he's like this", Mimi winks at me. I can't help but blush at her comment, which causes everyone in the room to burst out into laughter.
"Well if your going Tai, so am I. Besides you need someone to tell you when your being stupid", Sora exclaims.
"Sora...I...I don't...know...what to say", Tai exclaims partially shocked.
"Just tell me you'll let me go with you!"
"Sora, are you sure you want to go through with this? We're not kids anymore...we can't go through things without thinking ahead", I warn her.
"I think it'll be fine Izzy. Besides, she can control Tai if he does and as she quote "Something stupid", Gennai smiles. This causes a whine from Tai and more snickers from all of us.
"Alright that's great, we've got two people. All we need is one more", Davis says happily.
"So who's gonna be the last one? You'll need someone who want to play police", Matt sarcastically laughs from his position on the wall.
"I can go with Tai and Sora. I mean all I have to do is Kendo with my grandfather. I should be able to squeeze my way out of it", Cody says.
"You really think you'll be okay in the Digi-World by yourself Cody?", Davis sarcastically asks.
"Your acting like I'm going alone Davis. Just because I'm the youngest here doesn't mean I can't take care of myself!", Cody says angrily.
"I think we should let him go Davis. He's proven himself that he's worthy of being DigiDestined just like all of us. Besides, he reminds me of myself when I was younger. He gets my vote", I put my hand on his shoulder. Soon enough, we all cast our votes and allow Cody to go with them.
"Alright we have our three winners. Before I go though, I've got a present for the original eight, minus T.K and Kari". As soon as he finishes, six bright blue lights escapes from my computer screen and lands in each of our hands. Once the sphere of light clears, we're all in awe as D-terminals appears.
"Wow, our very own D-terminals. How cool is this!", Mimi squeals.
"Why are you giving this to us Gennai?", Matt asks confused.
"To message each other from now on. Unlike Davis's team D-terminals, yours can't hold Digi-eggs. You can all message each other though. I also put a map of the village you three will be going too in your digivices. Now...I'm afraid I must be going kids, the fate of both worlds rest on your shoulders. Good luck", Gennai smiled before the hologram of him disappeared.
"Well we got that taken care of. What do you guys wanna do now?, Yolei ask as she grabs a cookie.
"You guys wanna go out for some pizza?", T.K ask.
"I'm game T.R", Davis smirks.
"Me too, those cookies really didn't fill me up much", Matt exclaims.
"So Mimi, now that your back in town. Where are you gonna be staying?", Kari asks.
"Gee Kari I don't know. I was planning on staying with my aunt, but she went to Tokyo for my cousin's graduation", Mimi scratches the back of her head.
"Well in that case dear, you can stay with us", Mrs. Izumi says from the doorway.
"Mom, what are you talking about?', I walk up to her.
"Simple Izzy, she needs a place to stay, so we'll give her one. It's the least I can do for one of your friends". I can't help but get really nervous, especially since she's asking one of the people I...um care for to stay here under the same roof.
"Oh that's alright Mrs. Izumi! I wouldn't want to be a bother", Mimi shyly says.
"It's no trouble at all Mimi, besides I can use someone to talk to. My husband is always busy working and Izzy just wastes the day away on his laptop", my mom lightly smiles.
"Well since you put it that way. I could stay just until my aunt comes back. You wouldn't mind, would you Izzy?", Mimi innocently asks me.
"Um...well not at all. Your...more than welcome...to stay here", I can't even form words properly. I then turn to hear everybody trying to suppress a laughter from escaping their mouths.
"Excellent, I'll prepare the guest room for you", my mom says before walking out. I can't help but blush extremely knowing that Mimi is gonna be spending the night here.
"All right, so who's ready for pizza?", Joe's voice interrupts my thoughts.
"Let's do it", Tai says as he heads to the door.
Next Time On AHOFP:
"So, are you two ready to go", Tai says to Sora and Cody.
The mysterious Gennai puts his plan into action
"Come with me Bearer of Courage"
An old enemy of the DigiDestined makes his return.
"You won't get away with this!", Tai says angrily
The DigiDestined must come up with a strategy to save someone they care about
"We need a way to rescue him", Matt exclaims.
To be continued...
Author Notes:
Finally finished with this chapter. Sorry it took me almost a month to upload this. Major Koumi and Takari in the next one. I hoped you enjoyed this chapter.
This was originally meant to have Mimato in it. But seeing as how every other fan-fic had it, I decided to go the a different approach. Plus Izzy is one of my favorite digimon characters, so I couldn't resist.
Also since digimon tri came out, I feel like Koumi is the best choice and by far my second favorite couple.
Review please:D
