Part 1
Missing Person
It begins early in the morning as the digi-destinys of courage and light slept. The sky was still dark when the phone began to ring, and Tai's mother went to answer it.
"Hello, this is Matt's Dad," the voice on the other end of the phone answered. "Have you seen T.K. today?" The voice spoke quickly as though it was in a panic, and that this was its last chance to find whatever it was looking for, and it was because of this that Tai's Mom decided to choose her next few words carefully.
"No, I'm sorry I haven't seen T.K. today, but Tai and Kari might have," she said slowly and patiently. In her heart she knew that they haven't, but she neglected to take away his last piece of hope as she called her children to the phone.
Tai and Kari were fast asleep when they heard the cry of their mother as she called them to the phone.
"Tai, Kari," telephone she yelled as the two children slowly came to life.
"Ok, I'm coming," Tai answered as he slowly got dress and came down the stairs into the living room where his mother was standing by the phone near the couch.
"Tai, have you seen T.K., today," his mother asked the minute he was within visional range.
"Uh-No, why are you asking Mother?" Tai asked as he yawned.
"Just go get your sister, Tai, I will explain later," Tai's mother snapped, which totally surprised him. His mother was an normally gentle woman who never snap at her children, but this time something was seriously wrong and his mother was not in a her normal gentle mood.
Tai hurried up the stairs to the room that he shared with his sister. Here he slept on the top bunk while his sister slept on the bottom bunk.
"Kari," Tai said lowly as he approached her bed. "Kari, mother wants you." "Wake up, Kari," Tai said as he softly shakes her.
"Hmm, what's wrong, Tai!"
"I don't know, but it must be urgent to get mom up at 2 in the morning."
Slowly Kari rose from her bed in her light peach pajamas and went down stairs with Tai right behind her.
"Kari," her mother asked the minute she saw her. "Have you seen T.K.," she asked hopefully.
"No, Mother," Kari answered.
"Oh, Dear," she replied as her mother pulled the phone back towards her ear.
The voice on the other end of the phone answered quickly," No need to tell me I heard them." "Sorry about the trouble."
"No, that is perfectly alright!" "I hope you'll find him."
"Thank you," then there was a soft click on the other end as Matt's father put down the phone and looked toward his son who was peering behind the corner at his father.
"Come here, Matt!" His father called his son.
Matt slowly inch forward with something clutch in his hands, and as Matt came closer the object was revealed to be a hat.
"Sit with me for a minute, Matt!" "Do you have any idea where your brother can be?" His father asks as Matt sat on the couch beside him.
"No!"
"I thought so," his father responded. This had not been the first time T.K. had ran away. He had done it twice before during the divorce, and T.K. was normally found somewhere in the house. But this time, something was wrong about his disappearance. I mean T.K had no reason to run away
"That's it!" His father yelled as he got to his feet. "Matt go get dressed we're going to look for your brother."
Matt eagerly went to his room while his father got on the phone with the police.
Something was wrong and he wasn't just about to sit around and wait Matt thought to himself.
It was then as Matt was going through his closet that he remember what T.K. had said that night about wanting to go to the digital world. He rushed out the room halfway dress into the living room.
T.K.'s hat had been found in front of the computer, could he have somehow managed to return to the digital world Matt thought as he stared at the blank computer in the room.
