A SHADOW OF THE PAST

DISCLAIMER:I do not own digimon. Oh how I wish I did. Then I could... um anyways! The only thing I own is my characters. (I.E. the digimon I invented!) Enjoy!
A/N: this was written before the world tour so I'm sorry for the mistakes. Like with Mimi and Gennai
Preview-the digidestined find Matt and Mimi, along with someone from their past. This person could help them find out what has happened to TK and Kari.
Chapter 3-
"Matt!" Tai called again. They had been searching for ten minutes and still hadn't found anyone.
"Mimi!" Sora cried out. They had reached a lake when Izzy stopped everyone.
"Hey you guys, listen. I think I can hear singing." Everyone stopped and strained to listen. Sure enough they all could hear faint singing that seemed to come from across the lake. But in order to follow the voice they would have to cross the water in 3 swan shaped pedal boats.
Joe took a step back with a horrified expression on his face.
"Hey Tai. Doesn't this whole thing seem frighteningly familiar? I mean the singing, the swan boats, having to cross the lake to find Matt and Mimi?" he asked putting emphasis on the last word. At first Tai was confused but then it dawned on him and he groaned at the memory.
"Oh, no." no one else knew what the two were talking about. No one else had been there.
"Let's just hope we don't have to climb all those stairs again." Joe added before climbing into a swan boat followed by the rest of the digidestined.
^20 minutes later...halfway up a large set of stone steps. ^
"Go figure." Joe groaned. "Of course with my luck we'll have to do the dungeon thing again."
"How...much...further?" Huffed Davis. He was very out of shape and looked about ready to collapse.
"We're here." replied Izzy. Standing at the top of the stairs in front of them was a huge mansion. Only Tai, Sora and Joe seemed to know where they were.
"I was right. It's the same place." Joe exclaimed.
"What do you mean?" Izzy asked curiously.
Joe retold the story,
"Well before we fought Myotismon, we were separated by tai's disappearance. When he returned he worked hard at getting all of us back together. First he found TK then he came across me and Matt. We split up, Matt and TK going off in one direction to find Izzy, and me and Tai went for Mimi." Joe explained. Tai finished off where Joe started.
"We had to cross this lake, on those boats, climb these stairs and try to convince 'Princess Spoiled Brat' to come with us but it was actually Sora who finally got to her." He added.
"Yeah, Mimi was a total pain." Joe said. He seemed okay with it now but Tai went into 'Davis' mode.
"She even had the nerve to throw us in the dungeon. Humph." He was obviously still ticked off about what had happened.
They walked towards the voices, which were coming from the other side of a large door. They opened the door to reveal a large ballroom. It was filled with speakers and dancing lights. In the middle of the room was a stage. There were two kids on the stage singing into the mics.
"Ok. That's gotta be matt but who's the girl? I've never seen her before." Yolei whispered to Sora, just as the pair was finishing up the song.
"That was great!" exclaimed Sora who hadn't heard Yolei. Luckily Davis repeated her question in his own blunt way.
"Who are you?" he asked interrupting the girls' conversation. The girl had the worst fashion sense they had ever seen. (Sorry, Mimi fans!) She had on an oversized cowboy hat, and a frilled dress. Everything was pink. She looked at her clothes as if to say, Why don't you recognize me? Then realized what it was.
"Oh yeah." She replied in a familiar tone. "I forgot how much I had changed. I'm Mimi. Mimi Tachikawa." She announced. The jaws of the four digidestined, who had only known her after she moved, dropped to the ground.
"Mimi!?!?!! No way!" shrieked Yolei 'I can't believe Mimi wore that! She looks totally different!' Yolei thought to herself. Cody interrupted her thoughts bringing her back to the conversation.
"I never knew you could sing." He said in approval.
"We knew." Tai and Joe responded simultaneously.
" The last time I heard you sing was just before we were chased by those Numemon. We were in that sewer system, remember?" stated Izzy, chuckling at the memory.
"Yeah but she sounded horrible then." Laughed Matt. They continued to reminisce until they were interrupted by a short man clearing his throat to get their attention. He was floating in a soft white light that came from a machine in the ground.
"Ahem." He said patiently. Izzy was the first to notice him.
"Hey! It's Gennai!" he exclaimed excitedly.
"Who?" asked Cody. Neither him, nor Yolei, Davis or even Ken had ever met him before. No one answered his question.
"Hello, children. It's nice to see you all again but we have a problem. Come to my house and I'll explain. Your digimon are already here. I'm pretty sure you know the way. Oh and Yolei, Davis Cody and ken I'll introduce myself when you arrive." And with that his hologram disappeared leaving the kids to wonder what other problems they had other than the obvious, that they had mysteriously shrunk and that TK and Kari had disappeared. They were afraid of what else went wrong in the digiworld.
To be continued...
What happens? What does Gennai know? Does he know anything about what has happened to them?? Will I ever finish this story? Read to find out!!!
You are lucky because I was planning on posting this chapter then working on the next one. I've decided to post them at the same time so you can read more and I'll feel better (not rushed!). Hope you like it! Now on to the fourth chapter!
