DISCLAIMER:I do not own digimon. Oh how I wish I did. Then I would... um anyways! The only thing I own is my characters. (I.E. the digimon I invented!) Enjoy!
Chapter 4-
^At Gennai's house^
The group of kids walked into Gennai's house to be bombarded by balls of flesh, fur, scales and feathers.
"Tai!!" shouted Agumon as he jumped into Tai's arms. That's when he noticed that Tai was smaller.
"Why are we all younger?" he asked. The digimon also seemed to have been affected but Tai held no answers.
"I don't know buddy." He replied.
"Hey Matt" Patamon called out. He had a worried expression on his small orange face. "Where's TK, Kari and Gatomon?" he questioned. But like Tai, Matt didn't know.
"Maybe Gennai knows the answers to these questions." Was all he said.
"Oh but I do." Said a voice from behind the group. They all turned around to find the real Gennai.
"What happened?" Ken asked.
"Kari and TK have been kidnapped." He said.
"What!? When? Why? By who?" the two brothers fired question after question at Gennai.
"Calm down and I'll tell you. Come sit down and I'll tell you the whole story from the beginning." Gennai replied and led them to his living room. Once everyone was seated he continued.
"They've been kidnapped by the same digimon who has warped the digital world's timeline. Everything is as it was 6 years ago." He explained.
"But then why haven't we changed?" asked Cody.
"Hold on let me finish." Said Gennai not answering his question. He continued.
"The digimon I was referring to is Shadowmon. She is a very powerful digimon, who used an attack to open a rift in the digital timeline, bringing back most of the digimon you defeated 6 years ago. As of right now there is only one known digimon who has enough power to fight her and win. Even all together you cannot beat her. To fix the timeline you must one-by-one defeat the old digimon all over again-"
"But that'll be easy!" interrupted Davis, but the others agreed.
"Yeah. We're much stronger and we've got help!" exclaimed Tai.
"But you're wrong." Said Gennai, drawing back the attention of the children. "You see, only the digidestined and digimon that defeated them before can stop them now. All others will be useless. Now to answer Cody's question. I believe the reason you three haven't been affected by the change in time is because I think it only affects things that were a part of the digital world 6 years ago. You weren't digidestined then because you weren't needed. It is true that you are useless to your friends but I believe you will all come away from this experience with something of value." He paused looking at Davis, Yolei and Cody.
"There is a slight problem though." He continued. " The only way for your partners to digivolve to the next level is for each of you to relive the time they first reached that level. Tai and Greymon for example. For Agumon to digivolve to Greymon you must relive your feelings on that day. The battle with Shellmon, if I recall right. Do you understand?? He asked. Once everyone nodded their heads in agreement he continued.
"Once they have reached ultimate, or in Matt and Tai's case mega, then one by one you will return to your original bodies. When the last child has returned to their body the rift will be fixed and the digimon will return to where they belong." He finished to looks of understanding among the children's faces. But Matt still had one more question.
"So what does this Shadowmon want? And why did she kidnap with Kari and TK?"
"She, like all the evil digimon you've encountered so far, wants to control the digital world and the real world as well. As for why she took Kari and TK. Well it has to do with their crests: hope and light. Together they are the most powerful elements. They are bonded together. If there is no hope then there is no light and vice versa. Without hope and light your crests cease to work as well. Without your crests to guide the digiworld then both worlds would be plunged into chaos. Darkness and despair, hope and lights opposites would rule." He explained. Suddenly everything was starting to fit together in their minds. Gennai continued.
"If Shadowmon can eliminate one crest, either by killing the digidestined it belongs to or bringing them over to the dark side then it would be so easy to take over the digital world. If either TK or Kari becomes evil then their digimon can Darkdigivolve into either Ladydevimon or Devimon." Tai put two and two together.
"They'll be unbeatable because their counterparts were the ones to destroy them in the first place." He exclaimed solemnly. It was true. Angemon had defeated Devimon and Angewomon had defeated Ladydevimon. But the news Gennai had just kept getting worse by the minute.
"There is a loop hole however. Say for example if TK was turned evil, only Kari could bring him back and Devimon would cease to exist. Same thing would happen if the roles were reversed. But unfortunately if both were evil than nothing could reverse it and you would sadly have to destroy them before they destroyed you." He said not daring to look at any of their faces. But his news hit their brothers the hardest.
"D...de...destroy them?" Matt asked with tears in his eyes. Mimi sat down next to him and wrapped her arms around him, whispering words of comfort into the usually tough, emotionless rebel's ear. Tai was the opposite at first the words were so shocking he sat down quite suddenly, but his anger quickly took over. He had rage reflected in his eyes.
"Don't worry Matt. We'll stop that digimon before she gets to them." He said with determination.
Ok that's the end of chapter four. I'll work on chapter 5 as soon as this is posted. I promise the next chapter is filled with Tk and Kari. What will they do? Will they get to them in time or will Shadowmon claim them for her own evil? Wait and see. Also review. It'll get me working faster!! Thanks!
Luv ya all!!
