TAICHI: REUNION
T.K. here. Last time, Yolei's team began to fight the Nightmare Soldiers. They were losing so Genai upgraded Seadramon to Megaseadramon, but it still wasn't enough. Kari then arrived and due to her Crest of Courage, Gatomon was able to win.
"That was amazing!" Veemon said, walking towards Gatomon.
"How did you do that?" Betamon asked,"Even my Megaseadramon form wasn't strong enough."
"It was the crest," Kari answered before her Digimon could respond.
"The Crest?" Yolei asked.
Kari nodded. "Yes, my Crest of Courage powered Gatomon up."
"Her strength as a Champion must be comparable to an Ultimate," Michael said,"Then it stands to reason that her strength as an Ultimate would be like a Mega. Imagine how powerful she'd be as a Mega. If we had her, maybe we could have creamed Apocalymon."
Gatomon started blushing, turning her white fur red. "Come on, Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon were ten times as strong as me."
"I hate to interrupt," Ken said, walking towards them,"but Piedmon is going to be revived any time now. We need to stop him!"
Yolei turned towards him. "We don't need your help!"
"Yolei, please," Kari said, holding out her hand in front of the reborn Sora,"Ken, are you saying you are going to join us?"
Ken smirked,"I would call it more of a temporary truce. The Dark Masters are my enemies now, as well as yours. Alone, I would be killed and you can use the help. What do you say?"
Kari crossed her arms. "First I want you to swear an allegiance to us."
"What?" Ken asked, completely surprised.
"Just to make sure you don't attack us later on."
Ken just stood gapping.
"Come on,"Yolei said,"If you really want to get rid of the Dark Masters, what does it matter, Myotismon?"
Ken crossed his arms. "Just until the Dark Masters are defeated."
"Agreed," Kari said, holding out her hand,"Welcome aboard."
Ken just snickered as he refused her handshake. "What do we do now?" Davis asked.
"I know where they need to go to revive Piedmon," Ken said,"Near my old castle. There's a shrine there."
"Can you operate this 'shrine?"
Ken shook his head. "No, I'm sorry, I don't."
"We need someone who can," Michael said.
"I would be able to help."
"And why should we trust you, Genai?" Yolei asked,"You were nothing but Datamon's partner."
"Which is why I would be perfect to destroy it," he said,"Datamon did build it."
"Wait a minute," Kari said,"Genai use to work with Datamon?"
"Yeah," Davis said.
"Jeez!" Kari said,"I leave for a few days, and everything falls apart! Well, we'd better get going."
"This must be the Neo-Digiworld Capital," T.K. said, gazing at the city below him. The Digidestined were gazing over the railings of the hovership at the Digital City in front of them. It was a very large city, with a long tar covered street starting from the airport and ending in front of a giant castle. There were buildings on both side of the street.
"Well, we got in without any one noticing us," Jun said,"We'd better follow Taichi and get that Digi-egg that he found. I wonder who's it is."
"Well," T.K. said, putting the hat from his Neo-Digiworld Army uniform on his head,"We're not going to find out sitting her. Come on."
The others followed him off of the hovership. They were all disguised in the uniform of the soldiers; a blue pair of pants, a blue long sleeve shirt, and blue hat. Their Digimon were dressed in the same uniform as best they could. Patamon, Terriermon and Armadillomon for example, were wearing just the hat.
"Are you sure we're safe here?" Cody asked,"I mean, disguised like this? We look just like humans who stole uniforms out of lockers."
"I'm not sure exactly where we are," T.K. said,"But we're far from the area of the Digiworld that we're familiar with. That's the east area, we're somewhere in the far west. So, there are Digimon here that we're not familiar with."
As they walked down the street a human looking Digimon with a stream of snakes coming out of her back walked by. All of the Digidestined watched with wide open eyes. "We're REALLY far west," Patamon said, his mouth opened.
"Where did Taichi go, anyway?" Willace asked,"Did anyone see?"
"I didn't," Terriermon said,"Probably the castle, right?"
"No," Armadillomon said,"He turned right and went around the castle."
"Did he have the egg with him?" T.K. asked.
"I don't know, but I'm pretty sure."
"Okay," T.K. said,"Then let's go."
The rest of the journey was in silence as they walked up the street towards the castle. The castle was large and black, with many towers reaching the sky. It was surrounded by a black moat.
"I think the resident is trying to say something," Jun said, mentioning to the castle.
"We'll worry about the Emperor later," T.K. said, turning right down a side street,"We've got to get that....egg....."
"Wow," Cody said.
When they turned right at the end of the street, they found themselves facing a temple that dwarfed the castle. It was a church, no, a cathedral. It had large towers with gargoyles at every corner. As opposed to Jijimon's church, these stain glass windows had images of dark Digimon warriors.
"What Digimon are those?" Jun asked, pointing to the windows,"I recognize Venom Myotismon, but who are the other two?"
"Do you see that large, gray skinned Digimon, covered with black fur, large black wings, with the two horns on the top of his head?" Jun's Digimon Alruamon asked.
"Yeah?" she asked.
"That's Demon, the Demon Lord Digimon."
"What about the other one?" Cody asked.
"That's Diaboramon," Armadillomon said, shivering.
"This place reeks of evil," Patamon said,"I can feel it."
"We won't go in if its hurting you," T.K. said.
"No," Patamon said,"We need to go in. Taichi in there somewhere."
T.K. took a deep breath as he walked up the small dark stairs and reached the black wooden door. "Okay," he said, taking another deep breath as he opened the door. "Here we go."
It was all Michael could do to keep from throwing up as he watched the ground zoom past him. He grabbed onto Holsemon's fur as tightly as he could. "Hey!"
"Sorry, Holsemon," Michael said,"I'm not use to flying."
Yolei peeked over her shoulder and smiled. She could remember the old Joe getting motion sickness. No matter how much Michael was different than Joe, some things never change.
"How much further is it?" Kari asked, holding onto Nefertimon tightly.
Ken looked over Stingmon's arm. "These are the mountains. The shrine should be coming into view soon."
"Good," Kari heard Davis say behind her,"I can't wait to face them! Veemon's going to destroy Piedmon!"
"He really hates his old teammates," Kari thought, thinking of the person sitting behind her on Nefertimon,"I really can't blame him, though. I know what its like to have your entire life turn upside down. Everything about me was fine until I found the Crest of Courage. Now I'm not even sure that I'm Tai reborn, all evidence seems to point to Taichi, the General of the Neo-Digiworld Army."
"There it is!" Stingmon shouted. Everyone turned towards the ground. There was a large clearing in the mountain range. There was a large platform raised several inches above the ground. There was a small console at the edge of the square. In the center of the square was an alter. Machinedramon was placing something in the alter, while Metalseadramon, Lady Devimon, and a group of Mekanorimon were surrounding the platform.
"That is it," Genai said, behind Michael,"If you can get me to that console, I can stop the revival."
"Okay," Davis said,"How should we do this?"
"We come in and hit them fast," Kari said.
"Suits me just fine," Holsemon said, following Nefertimon in a dive bomb.
"Get rid of those Mekanorimon," Kari said.
"Rosetta Stone!" Nefertimon shouted, firing a pair of tablets from her golden shin guards. The two stones hit Metalseadramon in the back of the head.
"The Digidestined!" he shouted, spinning around.
"Great aim!" Kari shouted,"I said the Mekanorimon, not Metalseadramon!"
"Its not easy with three people weighing me down!" she said, soaring back in the air.
"I can help there, "Veemon said, jumping off of Davis's shoulder,"If you're ready, partner."
"You got it," Davis said, reaching for his D-terminal,"Digi-armor energize!"
"Veemon armor digivolve to Flamedramon! The Fires of Courage!"
Metalseadramon started to follow Nefertimon when he saw Flamedramon zoom towards him. The armor Digimon flew towards him like a rocket, head first. At the last possible moment, Flamedramon spun around, his claw pointed at Metalseadramon's face. "Fire Rocket!"
"Ahh!" Metalseadramon screamed, his eyes burying with flames,"I'm blind! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"
He started thrashing about. Flamedramon landed on his head and slid down his back to the ground. He started running towards the computer console when the Mekanorimon stepped in front of him. "Well, this looks like fun," he said, "let's get this started!"
"Flamedramon has started fighting the Mekanorimon,"Genai said,"But Machinedramon is coming."
"We'll handle that," Michael said, reaching for his Digivice,"Right, Betamon?"
"Betamon digivolve to Seadramon! Seadramon digivolve to Megaseadramon!"
The large serpentine creature burrowed underground.
"Get me to that console!" Genai yelled,"Hurry! The egg on the alter is glowing, the revival has all ready started."
Flamedramon was picked up in the air and thrown into the ground. He managed to turn his head slightly. "Machinedramon," he moaned.
"Correct," he said,"Now you must die."
Suddenly the ground started to shake right below Machinedramon's feet. "What is this?"
The ground exploded in an array of light that instantly destroyed the Mekanorimon, as Megaseadramon shot out of the ground. "Thunder Javelin!"
Holsemon landed near the computer console. Genai jumped off of Holsemon and ran over. "Can you do anything?" Yolei asked.
"No," he said, sadly,"We're too late. Piedmon is about to be reborn."
He looked up sadly as the egg on the alter shot a beam of light straight in the air.
Nefertimon stopped her fight with Metalseadramon. "What's that?"
"The beginning of the end!" Machinedramon laughed,"Lord Piedmon will be reborn!"
Taichi stood in the darkness, staring at the large black wooden door in front of him. "What are you waiting for?"
He turned and saw a a tall, skinny Digimon walk towards him. He had black wings, a red chest plate, and metal gloves and boots, along with a black face mask. He was carrying a large staff. He appeared to be a devil straight from hell. "You didn't answer my question."
"Sorry," Taichi said, turning back towards the door,"I'm just waiting for the Priest of Darkness to arrive. Then I will be able to give him the egg."
The other Digimon smiled. "This is a great time for us. Our master will rule the Digital World."
Taichi nodded. "Well, how long is he going to keep us waiting, anyway?" Agumon asked.
The door slowly opened and a figure in a robe walked out. "Well, its about time," Taichi said.
"Don't start with me!" the priest said. He was tall and had long arms that reached the ground. His forearms were very large, as were his thighs. He had long ears, like a rabbits. "Where is the Egg?"
"Right here," Taichi said, holding out the Digi-egg he found.
The Priest of Darkness grabbed the egg and walked back through the door with Taichi, Agumon, and the other Digimon following him. Inside was a long corridor with a black alter in the center.
T.K. peered around the corner of the open door. "Well, that's Taichi and Agumon all right, but who are the others?"
He turned towards Patamon. "Do you know?"
"That warrior standing by him is Skull Satanmon," Patamon said,"But I'm not sure who the priest is."
"I know," Terriermon said,"Its Anteiramon. What are they doing?"
"It looks like they're about to revive someone," Armadillomon said,"But who?"
Anteiramon placed the egg on the alter. "Now, our master will live again!"
A beam of thick, black light shot up from the alter, and through the roof, reaching all the way to the sky.
"Oh no," T.K. said, louder than he meant too. Taichi, and Skull Satanmon spun around.
"Who's there?" Taichi demanded.
"Shoot!" T.K. said, shooting his head around.
"What is it?" Jun asked.
"He knows we're here," T.K. said,"We'd better get this over with. Come on!"
"Its the Digidestined!" Taichi shouted,"Get them Agumon."
"Get him guys!" T.K. ordered.
The white light illuminated the dark mountains as the Digi-egg began to hatch. "No," Kari said as a dark figure started to emerge where the egg was had been,"I'm too late. It's him...Piedmon."
The light disappeared and the evil Digimon slowly looked around. He was disoriented and had trouble walking. "Wh-where am I?"
"Piedmon," Machinedramon said, walking towards him,"Please, allow me to explain. You have been revived."
"Wh-what?"
"Datamon has invented a process that brought us back from death," Machinedramon said,"But, you are still weak, we must go."
Lady Devimon flew over and supported Piedmon. She reached towards her belt and pressed a button on a square device,"Lady Devimon to Datamon. Get us out of here!"
Lady Devimon and the three Dark Masters present were surrounded by a bright light, then disappeared.
"They're gone," Ken said,"Piedmon had been revived."
"We've lost," Kari said, leaning back against Nefertimon,"And now...."
Just then, all their Digivices began to beep and shake uncontrollably. "What's going on?" Yolei asked.
Holsemon flew up into the air. He narrowed his eyes and scanned the area to the west. "I can see something," he said.
"What?" Yolei asked.
"A beam of light-no, darkness. A tall beam of darkness far to the west."
"That must be what set our Digivices off," Michael said,"But what is it?"
"You stay here Genai, the rest of us are going to find out," Kari said, jumping onto Nefertimon,"And with my Crest of Courage boasting Nefertimon's speed, we should be there in a matter of minutes."
"But what about the rest of us?" Michael asked, getting onto Holsemon with Yolei and Betamon.
"I can boast the rest of you too," Kari said. She closed her eyes and lowered her head. The Crest of Courage under her shirt started to glow. A bubble of light started to emerge from the crest that covered all the Digidestined.
Kari opened her eyes,"Let's go."
The Digidestined riding on Holsemon, Nefertimon, and Stingmon rose into the air, then they took off.
Michael had to grab onto Holsemon's back again as he started flying faster than Michael had ever traveled before. He took a peek towards the ground. They were moving so fast, everything was just a blur. He put a hand over his mouth and dropped his head onto Holsemon's back.
"Hand of Fate!"
Black Wargreymon held up his hands in front of his face in an x. He slid back when Angemon's attack hit his arms, but other than that, he was none the worst for wear.
"Gargo Pellets!"
"Gold Rush!"
With a swipe of his arm, Black Wargreymon sent the projectiles all over the church room.
"Careful," Skull Satanmon said,"You're going to destroy us all."
"What's that suppose to mean?" Taichi asked,"You might be an Ultimate, but you're strong enough as a Mega. Don't give me that crap!"
Black Wargreymon was about to slash downward on Digmon, when Angemon flew around from behind and slammed him with his staff. Black Wargreymon went down, onto one knee. "You will pay for that," he glared.
He backhanded Angemon across the room and into the back wall, regressing him back to Patamon. He kicked Digmon into Gargomon and they both slid into the wall.
"Now you all die!" Black Wargreymon said, walking towards Digmon and Gargomon.
Suddenly, the roof of the building shattered as a group of figures dropped onto the floor. "Its the other Digidestined," Skull Satanmon said.
"I'm going to be sick," Michael said, holding his stomach, he ran over to the corner of the room.
"Taichi!" Kari said, running up to him,"What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same thing, 'sis'," he said.
Kari smirked,"Well, 'bro' I'm here to save the others, good enough?"
"Yes," Taichi said, giving her an uppercut that sent her into the arms of the other Digidestined. He then turned around to Anteiramon. "How long until the egg hatches?"
"It will take many hours," he said,"But, I have erected a magical barrier around the alter that will keep it safe even after the temple collapses."
"Collapses?" Michael asked, stumbling back into view.
"Yes, it is the only way to keep our master safe," Anteiramon said. He then began to disappear into the floor. "Now, I am leaving."
Taichi growled. "Coward," he whispered, then turned back towards the Digidestined. He scanned the humans clumped together, and the Digimon standing in front of them ready to die to protect them.
Taichi grabbed his sword and started to walk towards them. "I will finish this myself!" he said, pointing towards Kari with his sword blade,"starting with you, my female clone!"
"No!" Yolei said, jumping in front of them with her arms out,"Tai, don't!"
He ignored her and kicked her into the ground. "Yolei!" Kari said, jumping up and rushing towards her.
"No," Yolei said, struggling back to her feet, but just managing to get to her knees, "stay there. I can get through to him."
"Think again!" Taichi said, raising his sword above his head. He quickly brought it down, intending to slice Yolei in half, when she shoved her cupped hand up and he stopped, inches from her face.
"Wh-what is that?" he said,"Wh-why can't I move?"
"Its because you recognize this," Yolei said, holding the thin strip of blue fabric in her hands,"Don't you?"
"I-i-its...." he shuddered.
"That's right," Yolei said, with a smile,"its the strap to my helmet, the old one. The one I wore when I was Sora."
Taichi's entire body was shaking as he stared at her.
"When I found out I was really Sora," Yolei continued,"I went into the Digiworld, searching for any part of my past life. I found this near the shores of the Digital Ocean."
"No, No!" Taichi shouted,"You-you're not Sora! She died that day! You're lying."
"No, I'm not," Yolei said, softly,"You know its me, why can't you except it?"
Taichi struggled, his entire body started shaking.
"Tai," Yolei said,"touch my hands, you'll know its me."
Taichi reached towards the fabric in her hands. His two fore fingers were shaking as he touch her hands. Instantly, his mind was filled with an image, a feeling he hadn't felt in twelve years. A feeling that he knew the moment he touched Yolei's hands. In his mind he saw a young girl wearing jeans and a sleeveless yellow shirt. On her hands were red gloves, and under her blue helmet was a head of red hair.
Taichi felt onto his knees. He was about to fall all the way over, but Yolei caught him. Taichi slowly raised his head and stared Yolei in the eyes. "Sora, it is you, it really is."
"No," Skull Satanmon said, rushing towards them,"You die now, you traitor!"
Yolei tensed, but was surprised when Skull Satanmon slid back across the floor. He fell to his knees, his right hand supporting his body. His other hand was pressed against his right shoulder, his fore fingers and thumb around Taichi's sword.
Yolei's eyes were wide open as she saw Skull Satanmon with Taichi's sword through his shoulder. He glared up at the standing Taichi. "You...you will pay for that," he said, disappearing into the ground,"You haven't seen the last of me."
Taichi smiled and collapsed into Yolei's arms. "Tai," she said, softly. Just then the entire temple began to shake.
"This whole place is falling apart," Kari said,"We've got to get out of here!"
"We're right behind you!" Michael said, while he and Ken lifted Taichi up.
The reunited Digidestined ran from the falling temple.
to be continued......
WELL, I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY YOU'RE NOT REVIEWING. MAN, THAT REALLY STUNK! I'M SORRY. THE NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE BETTER.
TAICHI: REUNION

Metalseadramon started to follow Nefertimon when he saw Flamedramon zoom towards him. The armor Digimon flew towards him like a rocket, head first. At the last possible moment, Flamedramon spun around, his claw pointed at Metalseadramon's face. "Fire Rocket!"
"Ahh!" Metalseadramon screamed, his eyes burying with flames,"I'm blind! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"
He started thrashing about. Flamedramon landed on his head and slid down his back to the ground. He started running towards the computer console when the Mekanorimon stepped in front of him. "Well, this looks like fun," he said, "let's get this started!"
"Flamedramon has started fighting the Mekanorimon,"Genai said,"But Machinedramon is coming."
"We'll handle that," Michael said, reaching for his Digivice,"Right, Betamon?"
"Betamon digivolve to Seadramon! Seadramon digivolve to Megaseadramon!"
The large serpentine creature burrowed underground.
"Get me to that console!" Genai yelled,"Hurry! The egg on the alter is glowing, the revival has all ready started."
Flamedramon was picked up in the air and thrown into the ground. He managed to turn his head slightly. "Machinedramon," he moaned.
"Correct," he said,"Now you must die."
Suddenly the ground started to shake right below Machinedramon's feet. "What is this?"
The ground exploded in an array of light that instantly destroyed the Mekanorimon, as Megaseadramon shot out of the ground. "Thunder Javelin!"
Holsemon landed near the computer console. Genai jumped off of Holsemon and ran over. "Can you do anything?" Yolei asked.
"No," he said, sadly,"We're too late. Piedmon is about to be reborn."
He looked up sadly as the egg on the alter shot a beam of light straight in the air.
Nefertimon stopped her fight with Metalseadramon. "What's that?"
"The beginning of the end!" Machinedramon laughed,"Lord Piedmon will be reborn!"
Taichi stood in the darkness, staring at the large black wooden door in front of him. "What are you waiting for?"
He turned and saw a a tall, skinny Digimon walk towards him. He had black wings, a red chest plate, and metal gloves and boots, along with a black face mask. He was carrying a large staff. He appeared to be a devil straight from hell. "You didn't answer my question."
"Sorry," Taichi said, turning back towards the door,"I'm just waiting for the Priest of Darkness to arrive. Then I will be able to give him the egg."
The other Digimon smiled. "This is a great time for us. Our master will rule the Digital World."
Taichi nodded. "Well, how long is he going to keep us waiting, anyway?" Agumon asked.
The door slowly opened and a figure in a robe walked out. "Well, its about time," Taichi said.
"Don't start with me!" the priest said. He was tall and had long arms that reached the ground. His forearms were very large, as were his thighs. He had long ears, like a rabbits. "Where is the Egg?"
"Right here," Taichi said, holding out the Digi-egg he found.
The Priest of Darkness grabbed the egg and walked back through the door with Taichi, Agumon, and the other Digimon following him. Inside was a long corridor with a black alter in the center.
T.K. peered around the corner of the open door. "Well, that's Taichi and Agumon all right, but who are the others?"
He turned towards Patamon. "Do you know?"
"That warrior standing by him is Skull Satanmon," Patamon said,"But I'm not sure who the priest is."
"I know," Terriermon said,"Its Anteiramon. What are they doing?"
"It looks like they're about to revive someone," Armadillomon said,"But who?"
Anteiramon placed the egg on the alter. "Now, our master will live again!"
A beam of thick, black light shot up from the alter, and through the roof, reaching all the way to the sky.
"Oh no," T.K. said, louder than he meant too. Taichi, and Skull Satanmon spun around.
"Who's there?" Taichi demanded.
"Shoot!" T.K. said, shooting his head around.
"What is it?" Jun asked.
"He knows we're here," T.K. said,"We'd better get this over with. Come on!"
"Its the Digidestined!" Taichi shouted,"Get them Agumon."
"Get him guys!" T.K. ordered.
The white light illuminated the dark mountains as the Digi-egg began to hatch. "No," Kari said as a dark figure started to emerge where the egg was had been,"I'm too late. It's him...Piedmon."
The light disappeared and the evil Digimon slowly looked around. He was disoriented and had trouble walking. "Wh-where am I?"
"Piedmon," Machinedramon said, walking towards him,"Please, allow me to explain. You have been revived."
"Wh-what?"
"Datamon has invented a process that brought us back from death," Machinedramon said,"But, you are still weak, we must go."
Lady Devimon flew over and supported Piedmon. She reached towards her belt and pressed a button on a square device,"Lady Devimon to Datamon. Get us out of here!"
Lady Devimon and the three Dark Masters present were surrounded by a bright light, then disappeared.
"They're gone," Ken said,"Piedmon had been revived."
"We've lost," Kari said, leaning back against Nefertimon,"And now...."
Just then, all their Digivices began to beep and shake uncontrollably. "What's going on?" Yolei asked.
Holsemon flew up into the air. He narrowed his eyes and scanned the area to the west. "I can see something," he said.
"What?" Yolei asked.
"A beam of light-no, darkness. A tall beam of darkness far to the west."
"That must be what set our Digivices off," Michael said,"But what is it?"
"You stay here Genai, the rest of us are going to find out," Kari said, jumping onto Nefertimon,"And with my Crest of Courage boasting Nefertimon's speed, we should be there in a matter of minutes."
"But what about the rest of us?" Michael asked, getting onto Holsemon with Yolei and Betamon.
"I can boast the rest of you too," Kari said. She closed her eyes and lowered her head. The Crest of Courage under her shirt started to glow. A bubble of light started to emerge from the crest that covered all the Digidestined.
Kari opened her eyes,"Let's go."
The Digidestined riding on Holsemon, Nefertimon, and Stingmon rose into the air, then they took off.
Michael had to grab onto Holsemon's back again as he started flying faster than Michael had ever traveled before. He took a peek towards the ground. They were moving so fast, everything was just a blur. He put a hand over his mouth and dropped his head onto Holsemon's back.
"Hand of Fate!"
Black Wargreymon held up his hands in front of his face in an x. He slid back when Angemon's attack hit his arms, but other than that, he was none the worst for wear.
"Gargo Pellets!"
"Gold Rush!"
With a swipe of his arm, Black Wargreymon sent the projectiles all over the church room.
"Careful," Skull Satanmon said,"You're going to destroy us all."
"What's that suppose to mean?" Taichi asked,"You might be an Ultimate, but you're strong enough as a Mega. Don't give me that crap!"
Black Wargreymon was about to slash downward on Digmon, when Angemon flew around from behind and slammed him with his staff. Black Wargreymon went down, onto one knee. "You will pay for that," he glared.
He backhanded Angemon across the room and into the back wall, regressing him back to Patamon. He kicked Digmon into Gargomon and they both slid into the wall.
"Now you all die!" Black Wargreymon said, walking towards Digmon and Gargomon.
Suddenly, the roof of the building shattered as a group of figures dropped onto the floor. "Its the other Digidestined," Skull Satanmon said.
"I'm going to be sick," Michael said, holding his stomach, he ran over to the corner of the room.
"Taichi!" Kari said, running up to him,"What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same thing, 'sis'," he said.
Kari smirked,"Well, 'bro' I'm here to save the others, good enough?"
"Yes," Taichi said, giving her an uppercut that sent her into the arms of the other Digidestined. He then turned around to Anteiramon. "How long until the egg hatches?"
"It will take many hours," he said,"But, I have erected a magical barrier around the alter that will keep it safe even after the temple collapses."
"Collapses?" Michael asked, stumbling back into view.
"Yes, it is the only way to keep our master safe," Anteiramon said. He then began to disappear into the floor. "Now, I am leaving."
Taichi growled. "Coward," he whispered, then turned back towards the Digidestined. He scanned the humans clumped together, and the Digimon standing in front of them ready to die to protect them.
Taichi grabbed his sword and started to walk towards them. "I will finish this myself!" he said, pointing towards Kari with his sword blade,"starting with you, my female clone!"
"No!" Yolei said, jumping in front of them with her arms out,"Tai, don't!"
He ignored her and kicked her into the ground. "Yolei!" Kari said, jumping up and rushing towards her.
"No," Yolei said, struggling back to her feet, but just managing to get to her knees, "stay there. I can get through to him."
"Think again!" Taichi said, raising his sword above his head. He quickly brought it down, intending to slice Yolei in half, when she shoved her cupped hand up and he stopped, inches from her face.
"Wh-what is that?" he said,"Wh-why can't I move?"
"Its because you recognize this," Yolei said, holding the thin strip of blue fabric in her hands,"Don't you?"
"I-i-its...." he shuddered.
"That's right," Yolei said, with a smile,"its the strap to my helmet, the old one. The one I wore when I was Sora."
Taichi's entire body was shaking as he stared at her.
"When I found out I was really Sora," Yolei continued,"I went into the Digiworld, searching for any part of my past life. I found this near the shores of the Digital Ocean."
"No, No!" Taichi shouted,"You-you're not Sora! She died that day! You're lying."
"No, I'm not," Yolei said, softly,"You know its me, why can't you except it?"
Taichi struggled, his entire body started shaking.
"Tai," Yolei said,"touch my hands, you'll know its me."
Taichi reached towards the fabric in her hands. His two fore fingers were shaking as he touch her hands. Instantly, his mind was filled with an image, a feeling he hadn't felt in twelve years. A feeling that he knew the moment he touched Yolei's hands. In his mind he saw a young girl wearing jeans and a sleeveless yellow shirt. On her hands were red gloves, and under her blue helmet was a head of red hair.
Taichi felt onto his knees. He was about to fall all the way over, but Yolei caught him. Taichi slowly raised his head and stared Yolei in the eyes. "Sora, it is you, it really is."
"No," Skull Satanmon said, rushing towards them,"You die now, you traitor!"
Yolei tensed, but was surprised when Skull Satanmon slid back across the floor. He fell to his knees, his right hand supporting his body. His other hand was pressed against his right shoulder, his fore fingers and thumb around Taichi's sword.
Yolei's eyes were wide open as she saw Skull Satanmon with Taichi's sword through his shoulder. He glared up at the standing Taichi. "You...you will pay for that," he said, disappearing into the ground,"You haven't seen the last of me."
Taichi smiled and collapsed into Yolei's arms. "Tai," she said, softly. Just then the entire temple began to shake.
"This whole place is falling apart," Kari said,"We've got to get out of here!"
"We're right behind you!" Michael said, while he and Ken lifted Taichi up.
The reunited Digidestined ran from the falling temple.
