( Okay, for story purposes, this chapter of the story will be marked by who's POV I'm using. If it says narrator's, then that means that it is third person and that it's really from no one's POV, okay? Now, here we go, on with the story! Please enjoy and review! )
Myotismon's Heir Part 3
( Narrator's POV )
" You mean you left your D-3 at Matt's apartment! TK how could you? If he finds it he might actually use it! ", Tai exclaimed when TK came over and while he and Kari were talking he had discovered his backpack missing. Tai had over heard, and now he was over reacting. " Man, if we didn't have enough problems! "
" I didn't mean to, Tai! I guess I just forgot about it while I was doing what you asked! I mean, I didn't even like the idea of going over there and having to pretend like nothing was wrong with the entire group, or that my brother's life is in danger! ", the bearer of Hope cried, sounding a little angry. " I don't like that you guys asked me to lie to him, okay? Maybe it's better that I left my D-3 there! "
" TK, you can't mean that! Tai told me what happened four years ago. You don't want that to happen again, do you? ", Kari asked him, a concerned look in her brown eyes as she placed her hand on his shoulder. TK hung his head.
" No, but I don't want to lie to him anymore. ", he whispered.
" If that D-3 opens the gate for him I don't think we'll have to anymore. We have to find him now, you guys! You two go round up the new Digidestined and I'll get on the phone and round up the older ones, all right? ", Tai implied heading over for the phone on the small table in the hallway. " We'll all meet at the school. "

( Matt's POV )
We landed right where I hoped we would, near Gabumon's territory. He greeted us first, surprised to see us without any of the others. I told him of the whole situation, how the others were lying to me, and that TK's D-3 was how we'd gotten here. He was happy to see Cass again, and I was happy she was once again wearing the red leather body suit that the Digital world's gate put her in when she came through. ( See SHE'S MINE NOW 1-4 ) But that thought was soon gone.
" We'd better set out to do what we came for, Yamato, before we get caught by the others. ", Cass commented as we began to head into the forest. I nodded, even though I had no idea where exactly we were going.
" You know, Matt, maybe we should find Tentomon. He might know where Myotismon is. ", Gabumon suggested after a long silence that he didn't like.
" Yeah, but what if he tries to tell the others that we're here? I already have the feeling that the others are trying to keep me away from Myotismon, and the last thing I need is them here and dragging me back. ", I replied. I was so confused. I had no idea why my dreams were of torture, and why the others seemed to already know about them, but it seemed the only way I'd find out was with the only people I could trust right now, Cass and Gabumon. " We'll have to do this without help. "
" Where do you think you kids are going? No one trespasses in my garden without my permission and gets away with it! ", a sneering voice we all knew well came from behind us. The three of us turned to see the Digimon Emperor standing behind us, holding his whip menacingly. " Care to show me you passes? "
" We don't have time for this, Ken. ", I snarled clenching my fists.
" Oh, really? ", the blue haired boy challenged. " Do you really think I'd let you get away with humiliating me like that, Yamato? I've come here to teach you and the rest of the Digidestined a lesson. Now, where are they? "
Cass had to giggle. " It's just us, oh mighty emperor. "
" What? No matter, I'll just destroy the two of you, and then when your friends come they'll find you dead. ", Ken retorted angrily. " Get them, Monochromon! Destroy them, Bakemon! Take no prisoners this time? "
" None of you fancy dead digimon this time? ", Gabumon laughed as he ran forward at a group of Bakemon. " How simply easy for me! Blue Blaster, HA! "
They were destroyed, but there was more still coming at us from every direction. I held Cass with on arm and punched one of the ghost-like digimon with the other as it came near us. The emperor was laughing evilly, and I really wanted to punch his lights out too, but three Monochromon were protecting him and even Gabumon couldn't seem to get through them. There were just too many of them!
I hated to say what I did then. " Run for it! "
Cass and I whirled and ran away from the fight. I could hear Gabumon following close behind, fending off Bakemon with his Blue Blaster. Suddenly the ground opened up beneath us and threw us all in separate directions. A Drimogimon had drilled trough the ground and tossed us all aside. My back hit a tree and I couldn't see to get up. I grit my teeth, trying to see through the dirt cloud that had risen all around the huge battle. What I then saw before me made me scream, but before I could his hand clamped over my mouth.
" No more delaying it, Yamato. You are mine once more. ", Myotismon sneered down at me. The next thing I knew was a sudden darkness.

( Cass's POV )
" Matt, no! ", I screamed when I saw that vampire's cape swirl around him and then they both disappeared. Once he was gone I saw his mini computer and TK's green D-3 drop to the ground by that tree. Gabumon and I both ran there.
' This al my fault, if I hadn't agreed to letting Matt come here Myotismon would never have found him. Maybe that's why the others tried to keep him away. Oh, God what do I do now? ', I thought Franticly as I scooped the small devices into my arms, and Gabumon led me to a small cave where we could hide from the emperor.
" I have to e-mail the others. We need their help! ", I whispered, holding back tears. Matt had showed me how to use this thing once, hopefully, the message I sent would make it to the Digidestined I had sent it to.

( Davis's POV )
" Davis, come to the Digital world right away! Matt's been taken by Myotismon and the Emperor is trying to destroy us with his slaves! –Cass. ", I read out loud to DemiVeemon who sat at the computer council. We were still waiting for TK and Kari to come back with Yolei and Cody, but then this strange message had appeared on my screen. " She sure sounds like she's in trouble. Maybe we should go now. I mean, what if we wait for the others and we all get there too late? "
" But won't they get mad? ", the small digimon asked me.
" Not if we save Cass from the emperor! She's in trouble, DemiVeemon. We can't just sit here and ignore that! ", I insisted as I pulled out my blue D-3.
" All right, if you really think we should. ", he sighed as he hopped onto my shoulder and braced himself to go through the gate. " But once she's safe, let's e-mail them so that they know where we are and what's going on, okay? "
" Fine. ", I nodded, holding my device to the screen. " Digi-port open! "

( Cass's POV )
" Gabumon, what are we gonna do? Even if Matt were here, you wouldn't be able to digievolve with Ken's black D-3 in the area! ", I whispered. The rookie digimon was holding me tight in the cramped cave we were hiding in. It was minutes ago when I had sent that e-mail, and we could no longer hear Ken's pursuit of us.
" The others are probably on their way right now. ", Gabumon insisted. His voice was icy and soothing, and I was glad that he was there with me.
" Hey, you guys can come out now. ", someone cried from the outside. I swore I knew that voice, but then it went on. " The Calvary's here and it's totally kicked the Digimon Emperor's butt. Are you guys okay? "
We were greeted by Davis's smiling face and Flamedramon stood behind him with a warm smile also. I hugged the younger boy tight for a moment, but then pulled away. He was blushing, and his digimon went back to his rookie level.
" I thought Ken would find us for sure. ", I gasped, my heart still racing. I couldn't seem to shake the feeling of icy fingers on my spine. " But I thought you would bring the others. Aren't they coming too? We'll need them. "
" We were waiting for them to show up at the school when we found out Matt had TK's D-3 and then we got your message. We thought that since you sounded so urgent that we couldn't wait. ", he explained, a little shyly since he was blushing. I knew I shouldn't have hugged him, he was after all with Yolei. " I sent them an e-mail just a second ago anyway, so they'd know to hurry. "
" So what exactly happened, Cass? ", Veemon asked me.
" Well, we trying to find Myotismon when all of a sudden Ken showed up and tried to kill us with his servants. We were making a run for it when this Drimogimon threw us into the air separating all three of us. ", I told him, and I could hear the panic in my voice. " Then Myotismon appeared and took Matt away before we could stop him, and that's when we hid and sent that message to you. "
" Okay, I guess then all we can do now is wait for the others. ", Davis nodded in understanding. " Come on, let's go over by the gate and wait for them. "
In the next ten minutes, the rest of the Digidestined appeared, and I had to fill everyone in. TK suddenly became very angry, and whirled around and tried to hit Tai in the face. Izzy and Sora caught his arms and held him back.
" I knew it! I knew if we lied to him that this would someday happen. I told you if we kept this from him it would only hurt him more! ", he screamed at the brunette who was staring at him in shock. " Now we might lose him like we almost did before! This is your fault! You MADE me lie to him! You made me lie to my own brother for the past four years and now it might cost him his freedom! "
They finally got TK to calm down, and Tai would no longer meet anyone's gaze. I watched them all whisper to each other, and it seemed as if Davis, Yolei, Cody, and I were the only ones who didn't know what was going on.
" Mimi, what did TK mean? What does Myotismon want with Matt? ", I asked the girl with pink hair. I had to know. I loved Matt, and I couldn't stand the thought of losing him, so I need to know what was going on. " Please, tell me. "
" I guess we have no choice now. ", Joe sighed, his eyes on the ground.
