Realignment: Part 3 - Problems

Part 3: Problems

Ooh, man what happened, I feel like a truck just hit me. Gomamon mentally said. His eyes slowly opened and then focused showing him the familiar location that Piedmon attacked him. Where is Piedmon?? I thought he was going to kill me...why did he leave me alive? "At least I'm not dead." He said surveying his injuries. "Aaaaaahh" He screamed as he tried to move his left arm, regardless of the pain or effort it wouldn't move. Is it broken?? How am I supposed to get out of here? Oh man, this isn't good.. Panic began to overwhelm him. "HELP!! SOMEBODY, ANYBODY, JOE, HELP!!!!!" Gomamon screamed until he couldn't hear himself talk and then logic reigned his mind again. All I can do now is...... He passed out from exhaustion.

*********************

Terra Force!!! A sphere of energy surged through space striking the dark body of a faceless creature. The blast didn't phase the creature; much less give War Greymon any indication of what it was that he was fighting. Howling Blaster! A blue streak of energy soared and hit the creature's side. Nothings working on this thing He said to himself. Movement form one of the creature's limbs. An invisible force pinned down Garurumon. After much struggling, and screaming he stopped and lay motionless next his friends: Garudramon, Palmon, Angemon, Gatomon, Gomamon, Motimon.....and Greymon... What??!! More motion from the anonymous creature. A bright white light rocketed towards him. I can't move, what's going on!? He mentally questioned. TAI, HELP ME TAI!!!!!

"Tai!!!!" Agumon sat up quickly startled to hear himself scream. "Whoa, what was that all about..." he shook his head waking him up further. His skin clammy, it was too real. He gathered his surroundings and noticed he was not in the same place he last remembered. He was on an olive green cot and in bandages. Over him was a canvas tarp, almost like a tent. He gave the makeshift tent a good look around. "Gatomon!" He got up and walked over to her. "Gatomon, wake up! Gatomon!" She slowly arose, much slower than the Agumon.

"Wh..where am I?" She said slowly and weakly. "What happened?"

"I'm not sure, but we are not in the same place we were before." Agumon replied, "Let me have a look at the others." Tentomon and Byomon were also on similar cots.. With some effort he got everyone to their feet and ready to find out just where they were. Agumon told them to stay put while he went out and scouted the area.

"At least its daylight, so we can see where we are" Byomon tried to lighten up the mood sitting with Gatomon and Tentomon waiting from Agumons return.

"I can't find Patamon anywhere, I hope he is OK." He reported "There is some equipment and a cot in another tent"

"Does anybody else hear what I hear?" Tentomon asked about a noise he heard. It repeated itself as it grew louder and louder.

"It's kinds hard to miss something that loud. "Byomon added

"What is it?" Agumon asked quietly as he peeked outside. Trees blocked his view but he did se the head of an enormous red creature...."Oh no...."

"What, let me see" Tentomon said making his way to see accidentally stepping on Byomons foot.

"Ouch, that hurt, watch where your going Tentomon" The Head turned in the direction of the noise.

"I think we better move....NOW!!" Agumon commanded as the three ran from the tent into some nearby woods. The eyes line of sight followed them even through the trees and then began to follow them.

"There's no way we can out run him, we've got to fight" Byomon stated

"And how do you propose to do that?" Tentomon argued

"She's right, we can't get away, we have to fight." The three burst out into a clearing hitting the Tyrannomon with their best shots. But it only seemed to make him angrier. It drew in air reading an attack.

"STOP, DON'T ATTACK THEM!!" A voice shouted from the direction of the Tyrannomon. He blew out a harmless puff of smoke.

"What...was...that....."Agumon asked half terrified-half curious.

They made their way through low brush to a clearing where the Tyrannomon once stood, now just a smaller version of it about the same height as Agumon. Beside him stood the owner of the voice.

"A human??!!" Agumon chirped in shock

Go get em War Greymon Tai said to himself as his partner leaped into action and hurled a Terra Force attack. Howling blaster! Garurumon followed attacking a creature in the distance. What is that thing Tai wondered as Garurumon was struck down by something. War Greymon was just standing and looking at Garurumon and the other Digidestined Digimon as a bright white light swallowed him. NOOOOOOO WAR GREYMON!! The light went through War Greymon and then hit went straight for Tai. NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! He screamed as the light engulfed him.

"NOOOOO.....No....no....no...no..no...." He said as he woke up from his sleep. "Oh it was just a dream... One bad dream. Man I miss them..."He said as he got up. He looked over at the alarm clock 4:30PM was the time. "What am I doing in bed at this time of day?" His confusion, brought on by the sudden end of his dream left him in a daze. After a few splashes of cold water on his face, he realized that he came home from soccer practice and took a nap when he got home. "That was one freaky dream, he said as his hands struck the digivice on his belt. "These things still aren't working, He concluded after a few seconds of pressing buttons. Just then his phone rang and Tai turned his attention with the digivice as he picked up the phone. "Hello?"

"Tai.?" a voice said from the phone

"Yeah, I'm him" He replied

. It's Izzy..Don't hang up..... I got my Digivice to work again. I need everybody here so I can fix them."

"How do I know they are fixed"

"I just need you to come over here right away"

"No deal, I don't want you making it any worse, its hard enough....."Tai didn't finish his sentence, but hung up the phone. "Agumon......Agumon......" Tai sobbed at the loss of the ability to see his friend. He sat on the floor against the wall. "Agumon......."
