Where is all the color going?
Sora's Thoughts!
A summer breeze blew across my face. Even though it sent goosebumps down my spine, there was something different sitting here in the grass. I looked down at my digivice. It seems to have lost some of its luster and shine. My crest, too. It has gone from a cherry apple color to a dull red. Kind of like an old car, with its red paint all scratched up.
At first, when us Digidestined returned from the Digital World, I was glad to be home with my mother. Even though I missed Biyomon, I was able to go on with my life. As the other children of the Digital World did. All the colors on Earth seemed to be vibrant, shimmering, but in time they too lost their luster. The sun looked like a pale lemon, not its usual golden sphere. The grass was less greener on whichever side of the fence you looked. The mountains, well, seems to lose all of their purple majesty.
All this was put into the back of my mind, though, when Mimi came to visit from America. She moved almost right after the Digiworld experience, and it was not often that I saw her. I told my mom that I was going to the airport to meet Mimi. She would be staying at my house. Waiting for Mimi at the gate, I was lost in thought when suddenly.
"Boo!" someone softly whispered in my ear.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!" I screamed. Expecting a Bakemon, I turned around and punched it right in the chest. Even though its chest was all muscled instead of squishy. My advisory fell to the floor.
"Are you okay, brother?" a feminine voice asked.
"Kari?" Wow, she's gotten so tall, and pretty too. She must be about 10 or 11 now. Then I focused my attention to the person on the floor.
"Oh I'm sorry, are you okay? Oh, it's only you Tai, stupid bonehead." I punched him again in the shoulder.
"Owwie, I can't breathe!" he answered.
"Well, if you hadn't scared me, I would not have tried to defend myself."
"We're here to greet Mimi. Is that what you're here of?" Kari asked sweetly. "Is T.K. coming? I hope he is."
"And why, suddenly, is T.K. so important?" Tai scooted closer to his sister.
"Nothing." Kari replied, turning a shade of red. "It's just.well.are the others coming too? Matt and Izzy and Joe?" She changed the subject. Pretty soon, Kari's wish came true. The others arrived shortly before Mimi's plane arrived. Let's see. Joe's in his first year of high school, while Tai and Matt are in my grade of our second year of junior high, T.K. and Kari must be in fifth grade by now. Izzy and T.K. or excuse me Takeru, have gotten tall.
"Hey Sora." Matt casually said. Oooo, that gave me goosebumps. He's gotten to be good looking. I can't decide whom I like more Tai or Matt. They 're great buddies and both are nice and caring. I was turning a slight shade of pink thinking about them when Mimi's flight arrived.
"Mimi!" We all shouted as she walked out of the gate. I heard the boys gasp. She was wearing a tiny shirt with a star on it (very tight if you ask me) and a white microskirt. Her hair was cut to her shoulders and dyed pink!
"Wow Mimi, you look great." Tai said. They hugged.
"Thanks Tai, not to bad looking yourself."
"Hi Mimi." I said. She ran up and almost knocked me over.
"Oooooo, I just miss all those girl talks we had. We have to have some more!"
"Great." I replied. "How 'bout everyone come over my place for the evening?" I was greeted with a round of applause. After making the boys load Mimi's five hot pink suitcases into my truck (ha I love making the boys do all the hard work) we arrived at my house.
"Don't make a lot of trouble." My mom said as we entered the house like a herd of elephants.
"We won't." I answered. Little did I know that the trouble was just starting.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"How about we play a little game?" Mimi asked.
"What did you have in mind?" I asked.
"Truth or Dare!" she shouted. "Is everyone in?" Us Digidestined nodded our heads. "Okay I'll go first. Tai, truth or dare?"
"Um, well, how about truth?"
"Okay, do you like Sora?"
"Yeah as a frie."
"No, as in like." The room suddenly got very quite. I was nervous of his answer.
"Um, no, she's just a friend." Wow, that's a relief, I really don't like him like that either. "Now it's my turn. Kari!" he smiled evilly. "Who do you like?"
"Um, do I have to answer?"
"Yes you do Kari." Mimi laughed. Kari turned a bright red and answered Takeru. Oooooooooo everyone went. It went around and around until it was Mimi's turn.
"Sora, truth or dare?" she asked me. Feeling brave, I answered:
"Dare!"
"Ha ha, you're in for it Sora. I dare you to.kiss Matt!" I gasped but Matt seemed to be okay about it. As I leaned in for the kiss (I was aiming for his cheek) he suddenly turned to a balloon popping and I caught his lips. It surprised me, I turned as red as my crest. The air was still. I noticed his cheeks turned a bright shade of pink before I broke off the kiss.
"Yeah go Sora!" Mimi shouted. I wanted to strangle her. Even though I kissed a guy like Matt. It was so dreamy. After everyone left Mimi and I settled down and got ready for sleep. As soon as I was in bed:
"Thanks for popping that balloon." I said sarcastically. She blushed.
"Hey! You kissed Matt on the lips. Anyways I can't decide between Tai and Izzy. Wow, Izzy's gotten cuter. But soccer keeps Tai in shape."
"Go to sleep, Mimi." That was the last thing said before we drifted off to sleep.
"Sora? Sora? Wake up!" Mimi's hushed voice told me.
"Huh? Wha- Mimi, this is no time for dress up!" Mimi was standing before me with a bathrobe around her body and a towel around her head. The moonlight draped across her.
"Look Sora." With that, she flipped off the towel and towel. I gasped at the sight before me.
"Mimi, no." I said in a whisper. I could see right though her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"What's the matter with her? And what's the matter with you?" I asked Izzy, whom now looked as see through as Mimi. The others had gathered at my house again.
"Well, I can't figure it out. My computer has no findings."
"When did you start feeling like this?" Tai asked him. He replied that soon after the party, he could see right through himself.
"I didn't look like this until I woke up in the middle of the night. And I'm getting more and more see through. So that means in Izzy's state, he will continue to worsen till he disappears. Him, then me." She let all this sink in for a bit. Tai punched my wall out of sheer frustration.
"Hey, calm down Tai." Izzy told him. He stood up and tried placed his hand on Tai's shoulder. Only it went right through. I couldn't believe it. Izzy was fading faster and faster. Tai almost grabbed him, but it was too late. A laptop clattered to the floor. Izzy was gone. Mimi was crying because now she realized her fate.
"Oh great. Now everyone's going to disappear into thin air. And we're just sitting here. I did not beat all those scary bad digimon just to end up like this. What about med. school? I'm supposed to be a doctor!" Joe freaked out.
"I will not allow this to happen. My team will not fall apart like this!" Tai said in a voice that suprised us all. "Now calm down, Mimi, stop crying. That's not gonna bring him back."
"Now you hold on a minute, Tai." Matt spoke up. "Don't be so hard on Mimi, or anyone else."
"Oh no oh no!" Joe yelled.
"Will you shut up for one minute Joe!" Tai shouted.
"Just look at your sister!" Kari held up a hand. It had lost its color and the grayness was travelling up her arms. She burst into tears.
"Shush, it's okay Kari. I'm sure everyone is going to be alright."
"Not me not me!" Mimi yelled. She was fading away like Izzy. Tai ran up to her and held on as if to keep her here. It didn't work. I could feel tears well up in my eyes as I watched my best friend fade away. Tai held on until he could hold her anymore. My heart broke at the sight of Mimi's face. It was filled with pure terror.
Somewhere else: "Two down, six to go," whispered a mysterious voice, a menacing, almost evil voice.

An unknown darkness?
New kids take charge!
"Will they all be here soon? We need them to complete our misson, right?" asked a feminine voice.
"Yeah, I think they possess the powers we do. Gennai forgot to tell us about these new Digidestined and what they are all about. He has a good heart but can be very stupid sometimes!" answered a male teenage voice. He looked down at his crest. It had two overlapping circles with three dots in the overlapping part. "Are our Crests of Strength and Tenacity strong enough? Will we ever complete our mission, Alicia?"
"Don't say that Jordan! The whole world is depending on us! As long as we have these." Alicia held up a crystal, his obviously because it had two overlapping circles with the three dots. She also held up her crystal, with the same symbol as her crest: a triangle with a star inside. Alicia and Jordan's crest started to glow silver and gold, respectfully.
"Where are our digimon? We must prepare for the coming of the others!" Jordan told Alicia. Jordan's digimon, Cubmon, and Alicia's Kitmon walked up to them.
"Finally, some new people! I hope there are girls coming! Good someone to talk girl talk with besides you. You're a good friend, Jordan, but I can' t chat with you about guys!"
"Likewise, there has to be guys, so I can talk about things other than makeup and girly stuff with you!"
"Digidestined!" a voice behind them said. "You must not have contact with the other Digidestined! That is not your mission!"
"Why? Why must we be apart from the others! They are fellow Digidestined!" Alicia shouted. "We need to be with them."
"No, that must not happen. The Digiworld and your own world will be plunged into darkness if your mission is not completed. You must find the other eight crystal shards, much like your own, and put them together to make one complete crystal, the Crystal of Light. Only that can save both worlds! Now, go make sure all the Digidestined make it into his world!"
"Right! Strength Crystal Power-Up!" Jordan raised his crystal over his head.
"Tenacity Crystal Power-Up!" Alicia also raised her crystal. The crest symbols on the crystals glowed gold on Jordan's and silver on Alicia's. With their powers activated, armor covered their bodies, from their chests to mid-thighs. Helmets and gloves appeared on their heads and hands, while a cape flowed from Jordan's shoulders. A staff with a thunderbolt on top appeared in Alicia's hand. Two overlapping circles appeared on Jordan's chest, while a star inside a triangle appeared upon Alicia's, completing the digivolvance.
"Now that we have Crystal Power, it will be easier to beat monsters and find the others. If they have crystal shards too, we must defeat them and use the crystals for our mission." Jordan was surprised by the ferociousness in Alicia's voice. But them he reminded himself that killing someone in order to stop the darkness was a righteous sacrifice.
"Come on Cubmon, let's go," he said to the little black bear cub creature to his side. "Cubmon digivolve to Pandamon!" A giant panda appeared where the cub was.
"Yeah, let's go Kitmon." Alicia told the gray kitten like digimon. "Kitmon digivolve to Panthermon!" A jet black panther now stood in the place of Kitmon. The children climbed onto their digimon and rode to an unknown destination.
