OKAY, THIS WILL NOT TURN OUT LIKE THE X-MEN MOVIE. THE MAIN PLOT IS NOT THE PREJUDICE AGAINST DIGIDESTINED, THAT IS JUST A MINOR SUB-PLOT. I DON'T WANT TO GIVE ANYTHING AWAY, SO PLEASE KEEP WITH IT. THE ENDING WILL TURN OUT LIKE NOTHING YOU'VE READ HERE BEFORE.
Chapter 2:
Davis looked around at his surroundings. He noticed that they had left the apartment building area, and were now walking towards the part of the city were the houses were. He looked at the person in front of him. "Hey, Kari, how much longer?"
The brown haired smiled slightly over her shoulder. "We're almost there."
"Good," Davis said, shifting nervously.
"Something the matter?" Kari asked.
"I just feel a little nervous about walking down the street with my Digimon in my backpack. By the way, what is your Digimon?"
Kari's smile broadened. "A cat."
"Really?" Davis asked,"So, you can take your Digimon out in public, and no one thinks anything of it?"
Kari nodded. "Right, my brother's Digimon, on the other hand..."
"You know," Davis said,"You keep talking about your brother, but you haven't told me his name. Come to think of it, you haven't told me anything about you. I just know your first name."
Kari stood. "Well, if you look on the name plate over there, you'll see my last name."
Davis turned to the right. They had stopped in front of a large metal gate connected to a tall concrete wall. There was a large mansion beyond the gate. There was a metal plate with the name 'KAMIYA' on the wall. Davis spun around and saw the smiling look on Kari's face. "You're a Kamiya?!" he asked.
Kari nodded. "I don't believe it," Davis said,"I've been talking to one of the richest girls in the city!"
Kari blushed lightly. "Let's go and meet my brother."
She opened the gate and walked inside the concrete wall. Davis followed her inside, feeling very nervous that he was going to do something 'common' and un-rich like and he would get thrown out.
There was a blacktop path from the gate to the three door garage. Kari seemed to be looking at something. The cars were all convertibles, two were blue, and one was orange. Davis couldn't even pronounce the names of the cars, but he could tell that they were very expensive.
"Good," Kari said, looking at the orange car,"My brother's home. We don't have to wait."
There was a white concrete path from the middle of the black driveway to the front of the house. Kari lead Davis up this path to the front door of the mansion. The mansion wasn't as big as Davis first thought, but it was still much, much bigger than his small family apartment. There were three floors, and windows all over the white outside of the house.
The red door opened up and an older boy walked out. Davis figured that this was Kari's famous brother. He smiled at them. "Ah, Kari."
"Hey Tai," she said, stopping at the front step.
Kamiya looked over her and saw Davis standing nervously in the grass in the small front yard. "Whose this? A new boyfriend?"
"Very funny," Kari said, a sour look on her face,"This is one of the Digidestined you sent me to find."
Davis walked up to Kamiya. "This is Daisuke Motomiya," Kari said.
"Nice to meet you Daisuke," Kamiya said, shaking his hand,"I'm Tai Kamiya."
"Davis, please," he said.
"Well," Kari said, walking towards the gate,"I'm going to get going."
"Where?" Kamiya asked.
Kari looked at her watch,"There are five more hours until sunset," she said,"I can at least get one more Digidestined before then."
Davis saw the look on Kamiya's face change. "Just be careful."
"I always am," she said, walking out the gate,"See you later."
After she was gone, Davis looked to Kamiya. "You're really worried?"
"Of course," he said,"She's my little sister, I don't want to keep putting her in danger like this, but she's the only one I can trust."
"Why don't you do the recruiting?" Davis asked.
"Because," Kamiya said,"I am one of the two most powerful Digidestined. I have to keep incognito. Its just easier this way. Anyway....."
He turned to him with a half smile. "Well, you're probably wondering why you're here, huh?"
"Kari told me you were recruiting Digidestined, why?"
"Come inside," Kamiya said, opening the door,"By the way, do you have your Digimon with you."
"Yeah," Davis said, swinging his backpack in front. He was about to open it when he saw a small orange dinosaur standing in the hall. "Whoa!"
"Davis," Kamiya said,"This is Agumon. He's my Digimon."
"Nice to meet you!" Agumon said, holding our his claw.
Davis zipped open his backpack and a blue creature popped out.
"A Demiveemon," Kamiya said, a slight smile on his face.
The small Digimon looked up at Agumon. "Hi!"
Agumon smiled back at him. "Hi yourself."
"Can you help me Digivolve?" Demiveemon asked.
"We're going to do just that," Agumon said.
"Please follow me," Kamiya said,"And I'll answer all of your questions."
Kari walked down the park looking at the large picture of the next Digidestined she had to find. It was a picture of a black haired kid her age. "Why can't there be any good looking guys?" she asked herself, sighing as she put the picture back in her pack.
She started walking through the park, then suddenly felt a familiar chill run through her body. She turned around. T.K. Ishida was standing a few feet in front of her.
"What do you want?" Kari asked.
T.K. walked forward. "I talked to my brother. He told me that you must have a list on you of Digidestined names. Where is that list?"
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Kari said, crossing her arms.
"You know darn well what I'm talking about!" T.K. said, stepping forward.
Kari stepped back. It wasn't that she couldn't defend herself, part of her brother's training was how to fight without her Digimon. She could bring down a Monochromon with her bare hands, but, no doubt Ishida had given his younger brother the same training. No, the reason she was backing up was because she didn't think that T.K. would engage her in broad daylight in the middle of the park. She soon found out, she was very wrong.
Sora walked down the sidewalk that ran through the park. She sighed deeply as she sat down on one of the benches. She could see across the whole park and everywhere she did, she saw kids her age in couples. Everyone one of the teenage girls was with a guy.
"This isn't fair!" she thought to herself,"Why can't I just get over him? Tai doesn't even notice me. He doesn't know I'm alive, why should I even care about him? Why would he even notice me, he's got Mimi to adore."
Sora started to feel the tears well up behind her eyes. "No!" she commanded herself,"I will not cry! I am not going to destroy myself over Tai. If he doesn't want to....wait, isn't that Tai's younger sister?"
Sora strained her eyes. She saw that at the other end of the park, right next to a wire fence, was a short brown haired girl with a white and pink shirt. "Yeah," Sora thought,"That's Kari...wait, what's happening now? It looks like that boy is trying to hurt her!"
Squinting her eyes, she saw a blond haired boy holding her arms away from her body. He seemed to be looking for something she was wearing. No one was stopping to help Kari. "Stupid jerks!" Sora thought, getting up,"I'll help her." She started running over to her, when she saw another blond haired boy jump over the metal fence. "Now who's this?"
T.K. ran up to Kari, staring her in the face,"Where is the list?"
"I don't have any list," Kari said, staring him back in the eyes. She was surprised that such blue eyes, could be so icy. "If you want to go right now, we'll go!"
T.K. didn't answer to that. He quickly reached over and grabbed Kari's arms. "Hey!" Kari said.
T.K. pulled his arms apart, stretching Kari's. "Where is that list?"
Kari pulled her arms forward in an effort to get out of T.K.'s grip. He stagger, but held on tight. "Wow," he thought,"She's pretty strong. Probably all of her brother's training."
Kari planted her feet firmly on the ground, the tip of her shoes touching the tips of T.K.'s. She pulled back with all of her might, slightly bringing T.K.'s heels up. T.K. was very surprised to find that he was beginning to lose his grip. "If she keeps this up, I won't be able to beat her! I'll have to get that list, now!"
He thought for a moment, then realized what he could do. Kari was pulling back with all her might to bring him to the ground, but he was holding on to Kari's wrists, so he simply let go.
Kari wasn't ready for this. She stumbled back and fell over. T.K. stood over her. He reached down and flipped her over. Before she could realize what was happening, the young Ishida had her back pack in his hands. "What are you doing?" Kari asked.
T.K. zipped open the pink backpack,"I'm looking for that list."
"Hey!"
They both turned their heads and saw a boy jump over the metal fence. He landed in front of T.K. He was older, about eighteen, with a mess of blond hair. He wasn't wearing a school uniform, like he should have been. He was wearing a pair of jeans, and a green shirt with an open jacket. He stared at T.K. "What are you doing to her?" he asked.
T.K. picked up on the new boy's accent. "An American, huh? Well, butt out!"
The American stepped forward and reached inside his jacket. He pulled out a familiar square device. T.K.'s eyes opened wide. "Y-you're a..."
The American nodded. "Right. Now, leave Kari alone, or you're going to have to deal with the Master of Water!"
T.K. was ready to fight, but, now they were beginning to draw a crowd. He didn't want to risk a confrontation now, there were too many people. He threw down Kari's unopened backpack and ran off. "This isn't over Kari!" he shouted as he ran out of the park.
"Are you okay, Kari?" the American asked, helping her to her feet.
"Yeah," she said,"I could have taken him, but thanks. Who are you? And how do you know my name?"
He smiled. "Well, I know your name because I get a picture of your family every year."
Kari studied him hard. She was sure that she had never seen him before, so then why would he get a picture of her family? Maybe her brother knew him, he was very secretive, even to her, but, Tai had never sent any family pictures to anyone, except...
"You're Michael, aren't you?" she asked.
He nodded. "Yup, that's me."
"Wow," she said,"You speak Japanese like a native."
"Well, that was your brother," he said,"When we met each other in the Digital World, he knew a little English, and I didn't know any Japanese. Its amazing we were able to talk at all! Heh."
"So," he asked, looking at T.K running off,"What was that about?"
"That was Matt Ishida's recruiter," Kari said, dusting herself off,"He was trying to get the list that Tai had made up."
"Ishida?" Michael asked,"He's already here? This isn't good."
Kari looked at him. "Is that why you're here?"
"Yeah," Michael said,"I was keeping track of Ishida when he moved from New York. Now's he back here, so I followed him, figuring that Tai would need help."
"He's sent me out to recruit Digidestined for a team," Kari said.
"Shh," Michael said,"Let's get back to your house first, then we'll talk."
Sora watched the American-Michael, that's what he said his name was, and Kari walk off. She had heard the entire conversation. "She I don't believe it. Tai is looking for Digidestined. I'm a Digidestined! Maybe that's how I can get him to notice me. I'll show him Biyomon!"
She was so excited she smiled as she ran home.
"This is quite some house you've got here," Davis said, admiring the hallways of the Kamiya mansion. The hall was a dark wood that shined from the light. There were pictures lining the wall of famous artists. The floors had tables every now and then with vases and small satutes."Into fine art?"
"No," Kamiya said, walking into a room on the right,"My mom is. Now, I don't want to talk to you about art, I want to talk to you about Digimon."
Kamiya walked into a giant library. There were ceiling high shelves filled with books on two walls. There was a green couch in the center and a coffee table in front of it. The bare wall that was right in front of them had a fire place in front of it, with a grandfather clock on the right. "I guess this is the library, huh?"
"Right," Kamiya said, walking over to the grandfather clock. He reached behind it and pressed something. One of the bookcases slid apart to reveal a doorway.
He turned around just to see the surprised look on Davis's face. "Wow!" he said, completely amazed.
Kamiya grin slightly. "Come on. This way."
Davis and Demiveemon followed Kamiya and Agumon into the missing bookcase. They walked into a blue painted square room with bars around the middle of the walls. When they were all inside, Kamiya pressed a button on a small keyboard that was rested on the wall. The bookcase slid back in place, and Davis felt the small room start to vibrate. "Are we on an elevator?"
Kamiya nodded. "Right." The room stopped and the door opened,"This way."
Davis walked out the room, and his mouth fell open. "I don't believe this! Wow!"
They walked out to a large blue tunnel leading to a small room with other doors. Davis and Demiveemon followed Kamiya and Agumon through the hall to the octagon room. Kamiya walked into one of the rooms on the right. There was a large computer at the far wall, with a desk in the middle of the room. A couch was on the right, and a set of chairs on the left. "This is our computer room," Kamiya said. He mentioned to the couch,"Have a seat."
Davis and Demiveemon sat down. "Where are we?" he asked.
"These tunnels go on for miles underneath our mansion," he said, sitting down in one of the chairs,"Now, let me start at the beginning. Ten years ago, my sister and I noticed something weird was happening to our computer. What it was was a Digi-egg. After it hatched, the two of us cared for it until it Digivolved to Greymon. He battled another Digimon, Parrotmon, in the streets of Odiba, before both of them disappeared. We didn't know it at that time, but that battle started a chain reaction that made normal kids into Digidestineds."
"Now," Tai said, leaning forward,"Eight years ago, I was at summer camp when I met another twelve year old name Yamato Ishida. The two of us became friends, then one day, it suddenly snowed. We were watching the skies when we received devices." He reached inside his pocket and pulled out a square device similar to Davis's."These devices which we called Digivices, pulled us into another world. We landed on an island where we met two Digimon, Agumon was mine, and Gabumon was Matt's. We fought evil Digimon on our journey to get back home. We were doing well, until we faced our most feared Digimon opponent, a undead Digimon called Myotismon."
"We faced each other many times, but Myotismon always won. Then we meet a being called Genai. He told us that he was looking for a way to send us home, but while he couldn't send us there, he knew what was happening back home. Digidestined were beginning to emerge, and they were meeting with fear and suspicion. It was then that our friendship ended. We began to argue about what we should do. Ishida said that we should take an aggressive stand, while I argued that that would just make us out to be the enemies that the normal populace thought we were. We ended our friendship and we split up."
Kamiya sighed, and Davis could see that he still regretted it. "The two of us were still trapped in the Digital World," Kamiya continued,"and while we wouldn't see each other, we knew that the other one was still fighting against Myotismon. It was then that I met another Digidestined in the Digital World. An American named Michael. He shared my views on the Digidestined on earth, and when when finally found a way home, he would do all he could to help me with my plan."
"Your plan?" Davis asked.
Kamiya smiled slightly,"To build a Digidestined team for the purpose of battling, and defeating, Myotismon, as well as the Digimon trying to enter this world. Also to stop any aggression that Ishida's team would do. I have sent my sister as my recruiter, and you are the first member of my Digital Warriors!"
Davis started laughing slightly. "What?" Kamiya asked.
"A bit corny, isn't it?" he asked.
Kamiya glared at him. "Sorry," Davis said,"You said,'Ishida's aggression...'"
"While I want to believe that he won't do anything to hurt others, I am afraid that in order to save Digidestined, he may resort to terrorism."
"So, if your cause is so noble, why all the secrecy?"
Kamiya looked down,"We've all done things that we aren't proud of, and don't want to be remembered for."
Davis was surprised at the change in Kamiya's mood. Davis figured that Tai must have done something extremely bad for him to suddenly become quite.
"That is another one of the reasons that I founded this team," he said,"To make sure that what happened never happens to anyone else."
"What happened?" Davis asked,"What did you do?"
Kamiya sighed. "I'd rather not talk about it."
Davis's eyes opened wide. "Did you kill someone?"
Kamiya didn't answer. He just kept his gaze to the floor. The uncomfortable silence was broken when the door opened and Kari walked in with a blond haired boy, and a white cat following them.
Kamiya looked at the boy in the back. "Michael!" he said, happily,"What are you doing here?"
Michael shook Kamiya's outstretch hand. "I came when I heard that Ishida was heading here. I figured that you may need help."
Kamiya smiled. "Yes, how long can you stay?"
"I'm out for summer right now, so, a couple of weeks."
"Great," Kamiya said. He then noticed Kari. She had dirt all over her back. "What happened?" he asked.
"I got into a little fight," she said, looking down.
"You got into a fight?" he asked, amazed,"Who was it? Did you get her?"
"It wasn't a girl," she said,"It was T.K. Ishida."
"What?" Kamiya asked,"What did he want?"
"The list," Michael said,"But your sister didn't give it up. You should be very proud."
Kamiya smiled. "Yeah, I am, but you'd better get cleaned up before Mom sees you, or she'll flip."
"Yeah," Kari said, turning around,"I'm going."
"Well," Kamiya said, looking at Michael,"Let me show you your room."
END OF PART 2
Chapter 2:
Davis looked around at his surroundings. He noticed that they had left the apartment building area, and were now walking towards the part of the city were the houses were. He looked at the person in front of him. "Hey, Kari, how much longer?"
The brown haired smiled slightly over her shoulder. "We're almost there."
"Good," Davis said, shifting nervously.
"Something the matter?" Kari asked.
"I just feel a little nervous about walking down the street with my Digimon in my backpack. By the way, what is your Digimon?"
Kari's smile broadened. "A cat."
"Really?" Davis asked,"So, you can take your Digimon out in public, and no one thinks anything of it?"
Kari nodded. "Right, my brother's Digimon, on the other hand..."
"You know," Davis said,"You keep talking about your brother, but you haven't told me his name. Come to think of it, you haven't told me anything about you. I just know your first name."
Kari stood. "Well, if you look on the name plate over there, you'll see my last name."
Davis turned to the right. They had stopped in front of a large metal gate connected to a tall concrete wall. There was a large mansion beyond the gate. There was a metal plate with the name 'KAMIYA' on the wall. Davis spun around and saw the smiling look on Kari's face. "You're a Kamiya?!" he asked.
Kari nodded. "I don't believe it," Davis said,"I've been talking to one of the richest girls in the city!"
Kari blushed lightly. "Let's go and meet my brother."
She opened the gate and walked inside the concrete wall. Davis followed her inside, feeling very nervous that he was going to do something 'common' and un-rich like and he would get thrown out.
There was a blacktop path from the gate to the three door garage. Kari seemed to be looking at something. The cars were all convertibles, two were blue, and one was orange. Davis couldn't even pronounce the names of the cars, but he could tell that they were very expensive.
"Good," Kari said, looking at the orange car,"My brother's home. We don't have to wait."
There was a white concrete path from the middle of the black driveway to the front of the house. Kari lead Davis up this path to the front door of the mansion. The mansion wasn't as big as Davis first thought, but it was still much, much bigger than his small family apartment. There were three floors, and windows all over the white outside of the house.
The red door opened up and an older boy walked out. Davis figured that this was Kari's famous brother. He smiled at them. "Ah, Kari."
"Hey Tai," she said, stopping at the front step.
Kamiya looked over her and saw Davis standing nervously in the grass in the small front yard. "Whose this? A new boyfriend?"
"Very funny," Kari said, a sour look on her face,"This is one of the Digidestined you sent me to find."
Davis walked up to Kamiya. "This is Daisuke Motomiya," Kari said.
"Nice to meet you Daisuke," Kamiya said, shaking his hand,"I'm Tai Kamiya."
"Davis, please," he said.
"Well," Kari said, walking towards the gate,"I'm going to get going."
"Where?" Kamiya asked.
Kari looked at her watch,"There are five more hours until sunset," she said,"I can at least get one more Digidestined before then."
Davis saw the look on Kamiya's face change. "Just be careful."
"I always am," she said, walking out the gate,"See you later."
After she was gone, Davis looked to Kamiya. "You're really worried?"
"Of course," he said,"She's my little sister, I don't want to keep putting her in danger like this, but she's the only one I can trust."
"Why don't you do the recruiting?" Davis asked.
"Because," Kamiya said,"I am one of the two most powerful Digidestined. I have to keep incognito. Its just easier this way. Anyway....."
He turned to him with a half smile. "Well, you're probably wondering why you're here, huh?"
"Kari told me you were recruiting Digidestined, why?"
"Come inside," Kamiya said, opening the door,"By the way, do you have your Digimon with you."
"Yeah," Davis said, swinging his backpack in front. He was about to open it when he saw a small orange dinosaur standing in the hall. "Whoa!"
"Davis," Kamiya said,"This is Agumon. He's my Digimon."
"Nice to meet you!" Agumon said, holding our his claw.
Davis zipped open his backpack and a blue creature popped out.
"A Demiveemon," Kamiya said, a slight smile on his face.
The small Digimon looked up at Agumon. "Hi!"
Agumon smiled back at him. "Hi yourself."
"Can you help me Digivolve?" Demiveemon asked.
"We're going to do just that," Agumon said.
"Please follow me," Kamiya said,"And I'll answer all of your questions."
Kari walked down the park looking at the large picture of the next Digidestined she had to find. It was a picture of a black haired kid her age. "Why can't there be any good looking guys?" she asked herself, sighing as she put the picture back in her pack.
She started walking through the park, then suddenly felt a familiar chill run through her body. She turned around. T.K. Ishida was standing a few feet in front of her.
"What do you want?" Kari asked.
T.K. walked forward. "I talked to my brother. He told me that you must have a list on you of Digidestined names. Where is that list?"
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Kari said, crossing her arms.
"You know darn well what I'm talking about!" T.K. said, stepping forward.
Kari stepped back. It wasn't that she couldn't defend herself, part of her brother's training was how to fight without her Digimon. She could bring down a Monochromon with her bare hands, but, no doubt Ishida had given his younger brother the same training. No, the reason she was backing up was because she didn't think that T.K. would engage her in broad daylight in the middle of the park. She soon found out, she was very wrong.
Sora walked down the sidewalk that ran through the park. She sighed deeply as she sat down on one of the benches. She could see across the whole park and everywhere she did, she saw kids her age in couples. Everyone one of the teenage girls was with a guy.
"This isn't fair!" she thought to herself,"Why can't I just get over him? Tai doesn't even notice me. He doesn't know I'm alive, why should I even care about him? Why would he even notice me, he's got Mimi to adore."
Sora started to feel the tears well up behind her eyes. "No!" she commanded herself,"I will not cry! I am not going to destroy myself over Tai. If he doesn't want to....wait, isn't that Tai's younger sister?"
Sora strained her eyes. She saw that at the other end of the park, right next to a wire fence, was a short brown haired girl with a white and pink shirt. "Yeah," Sora thought,"That's Kari...wait, what's happening now? It looks like that boy is trying to hurt her!"
Squinting her eyes, she saw a blond haired boy holding her arms away from her body. He seemed to be looking for something she was wearing. No one was stopping to help Kari. "Stupid jerks!" Sora thought, getting up,"I'll help her." She started running over to her, when she saw another blond haired boy jump over the metal fence. "Now who's this?"
T.K. ran up to Kari, staring her in the face,"Where is the list?"
"I don't have any list," Kari said, staring him back in the eyes. She was surprised that such blue eyes, could be so icy. "If you want to go right now, we'll go!"
T.K. didn't answer to that. He quickly reached over and grabbed Kari's arms. "Hey!" Kari said.
T.K. pulled his arms apart, stretching Kari's. "Where is that list?"
Kari pulled her arms forward in an effort to get out of T.K.'s grip. He stagger, but held on tight. "Wow," he thought,"She's pretty strong. Probably all of her brother's training."
Kari planted her feet firmly on the ground, the tip of her shoes touching the tips of T.K.'s. She pulled back with all of her might, slightly bringing T.K.'s heels up. T.K. was very surprised to find that he was beginning to lose his grip. "If she keeps this up, I won't be able to beat her! I'll have to get that list, now!"
He thought for a moment, then realized what he could do. Kari was pulling back with all her might to bring him to the ground, but he was holding on to Kari's wrists, so he simply let go.
Kari wasn't ready for this. She stumbled back and fell over. T.K. stood over her. He reached down and flipped her over. Before she could realize what was happening, the young Ishida had her back pack in his hands. "What are you doing?" Kari asked.
T.K. zipped open the pink backpack,"I'm looking for that list."
"Hey!"
They both turned their heads and saw a boy jump over the metal fence. He landed in front of T.K. He was older, about eighteen, with a mess of blond hair. He wasn't wearing a school uniform, like he should have been. He was wearing a pair of jeans, and a green shirt with an open jacket. He stared at T.K. "What are you doing to her?" he asked.
T.K. picked up on the new boy's accent. "An American, huh? Well, butt out!"
The American stepped forward and reached inside his jacket. He pulled out a familiar square device. T.K.'s eyes opened wide. "Y-you're a..."
The American nodded. "Right. Now, leave Kari alone, or you're going to have to deal with the Master of Water!"
T.K. was ready to fight, but, now they were beginning to draw a crowd. He didn't want to risk a confrontation now, there were too many people. He threw down Kari's unopened backpack and ran off. "This isn't over Kari!" he shouted as he ran out of the park.
"Are you okay, Kari?" the American asked, helping her to her feet.
"Yeah," she said,"I could have taken him, but thanks. Who are you? And how do you know my name?"
He smiled. "Well, I know your name because I get a picture of your family every year."
Kari studied him hard. She was sure that she had never seen him before, so then why would he get a picture of her family? Maybe her brother knew him, he was very secretive, even to her, but, Tai had never sent any family pictures to anyone, except...
"You're Michael, aren't you?" she asked.
He nodded. "Yup, that's me."
"Wow," she said,"You speak Japanese like a native."
"Well, that was your brother," he said,"When we met each other in the Digital World, he knew a little English, and I didn't know any Japanese. Its amazing we were able to talk at all! Heh."
"So," he asked, looking at T.K running off,"What was that about?"
"That was Matt Ishida's recruiter," Kari said, dusting herself off,"He was trying to get the list that Tai had made up."
"Ishida?" Michael asked,"He's already here? This isn't good."
Kari looked at him. "Is that why you're here?"
"Yeah," Michael said,"I was keeping track of Ishida when he moved from New York. Now's he back here, so I followed him, figuring that Tai would need help."
"He's sent me out to recruit Digidestined for a team," Kari said.
"Shh," Michael said,"Let's get back to your house first, then we'll talk."
Sora watched the American-Michael, that's what he said his name was, and Kari walk off. She had heard the entire conversation. "She I don't believe it. Tai is looking for Digidestined. I'm a Digidestined! Maybe that's how I can get him to notice me. I'll show him Biyomon!"
She was so excited she smiled as she ran home.
"This is quite some house you've got here," Davis said, admiring the hallways of the Kamiya mansion. The hall was a dark wood that shined from the light. There were pictures lining the wall of famous artists. The floors had tables every now and then with vases and small satutes."Into fine art?"
"No," Kamiya said, walking into a room on the right,"My mom is. Now, I don't want to talk to you about art, I want to talk to you about Digimon."
Kamiya walked into a giant library. There were ceiling high shelves filled with books on two walls. There was a green couch in the center and a coffee table in front of it. The bare wall that was right in front of them had a fire place in front of it, with a grandfather clock on the right. "I guess this is the library, huh?"
"Right," Kamiya said, walking over to the grandfather clock. He reached behind it and pressed something. One of the bookcases slid apart to reveal a doorway.
He turned around just to see the surprised look on Davis's face. "Wow!" he said, completely amazed.
Kamiya grin slightly. "Come on. This way."
Davis and Demiveemon followed Kamiya and Agumon into the missing bookcase. They walked into a blue painted square room with bars around the middle of the walls. When they were all inside, Kamiya pressed a button on a small keyboard that was rested on the wall. The bookcase slid back in place, and Davis felt the small room start to vibrate. "Are we on an elevator?"
Kamiya nodded. "Right." The room stopped and the door opened,"This way."
Davis walked out the room, and his mouth fell open. "I don't believe this! Wow!"
They walked out to a large blue tunnel leading to a small room with other doors. Davis and Demiveemon followed Kamiya and Agumon through the hall to the octagon room. Kamiya walked into one of the rooms on the right. There was a large computer at the far wall, with a desk in the middle of the room. A couch was on the right, and a set of chairs on the left. "This is our computer room," Kamiya said. He mentioned to the couch,"Have a seat."
Davis and Demiveemon sat down. "Where are we?" he asked.
"These tunnels go on for miles underneath our mansion," he said, sitting down in one of the chairs,"Now, let me start at the beginning. Ten years ago, my sister and I noticed something weird was happening to our computer. What it was was a Digi-egg. After it hatched, the two of us cared for it until it Digivolved to Greymon. He battled another Digimon, Parrotmon, in the streets of Odiba, before both of them disappeared. We didn't know it at that time, but that battle started a chain reaction that made normal kids into Digidestineds."
"Now," Tai said, leaning forward,"Eight years ago, I was at summer camp when I met another twelve year old name Yamato Ishida. The two of us became friends, then one day, it suddenly snowed. We were watching the skies when we received devices." He reached inside his pocket and pulled out a square device similar to Davis's."These devices which we called Digivices, pulled us into another world. We landed on an island where we met two Digimon, Agumon was mine, and Gabumon was Matt's. We fought evil Digimon on our journey to get back home. We were doing well, until we faced our most feared Digimon opponent, a undead Digimon called Myotismon."
"We faced each other many times, but Myotismon always won. Then we meet a being called Genai. He told us that he was looking for a way to send us home, but while he couldn't send us there, he knew what was happening back home. Digidestined were beginning to emerge, and they were meeting with fear and suspicion. It was then that our friendship ended. We began to argue about what we should do. Ishida said that we should take an aggressive stand, while I argued that that would just make us out to be the enemies that the normal populace thought we were. We ended our friendship and we split up."
Kamiya sighed, and Davis could see that he still regretted it. "The two of us were still trapped in the Digital World," Kamiya continued,"and while we wouldn't see each other, we knew that the other one was still fighting against Myotismon. It was then that I met another Digidestined in the Digital World. An American named Michael. He shared my views on the Digidestined on earth, and when when finally found a way home, he would do all he could to help me with my plan."
"Your plan?" Davis asked.
Kamiya smiled slightly,"To build a Digidestined team for the purpose of battling, and defeating, Myotismon, as well as the Digimon trying to enter this world. Also to stop any aggression that Ishida's team would do. I have sent my sister as my recruiter, and you are the first member of my Digital Warriors!"
Davis started laughing slightly. "What?" Kamiya asked.
"A bit corny, isn't it?" he asked.
Kamiya glared at him. "Sorry," Davis said,"You said,'Ishida's aggression...'"
"While I want to believe that he won't do anything to hurt others, I am afraid that in order to save Digidestined, he may resort to terrorism."
"So, if your cause is so noble, why all the secrecy?"
Kamiya looked down,"We've all done things that we aren't proud of, and don't want to be remembered for."
Davis was surprised at the change in Kamiya's mood. Davis figured that Tai must have done something extremely bad for him to suddenly become quite.
"That is another one of the reasons that I founded this team," he said,"To make sure that what happened never happens to anyone else."
"What happened?" Davis asked,"What did you do?"
Kamiya sighed. "I'd rather not talk about it."
Davis's eyes opened wide. "Did you kill someone?"
Kamiya didn't answer. He just kept his gaze to the floor. The uncomfortable silence was broken when the door opened and Kari walked in with a blond haired boy, and a white cat following them.
Kamiya looked at the boy in the back. "Michael!" he said, happily,"What are you doing here?"
Michael shook Kamiya's outstretch hand. "I came when I heard that Ishida was heading here. I figured that you may need help."
Kamiya smiled. "Yes, how long can you stay?"
"I'm out for summer right now, so, a couple of weeks."
"Great," Kamiya said. He then noticed Kari. She had dirt all over her back. "What happened?" he asked.
"I got into a little fight," she said, looking down.
"You got into a fight?" he asked, amazed,"Who was it? Did you get her?"
"It wasn't a girl," she said,"It was T.K. Ishida."
"What?" Kamiya asked,"What did he want?"
"The list," Michael said,"But your sister didn't give it up. You should be very proud."
Kamiya smiled. "Yeah, I am, but you'd better get cleaned up before Mom sees you, or she'll flip."
"Yeah," Kari said, turning around,"I'm going."
"Well," Kamiya said, looking at Michael,"Let me show you your room."
