Yolei stared at the door in terror, thinking quickly she pressed the Digivice agenst the computer and she disspeared in a flash of white light.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Cody Hida stood in the doorway for a momment. he could of sworn their was a bright light......then darkness. Shaking his head slightly he sat down at one of the computers and brought up a map of the
Digital World. He stared angrly at the black squares. The outhers would be here soon. Since the empouere never came out at night, they decided they'd pull a sneak attack and take out some of
the controle spires.

Secouds later Matt, Tai, Izzy, Sora, Davise, Kari, and T.K. walked in.

Cody stood up,"Ready?"

They nodded then Izzy said,"I'll stay behind and watch you guys frm here, just in case."

With that Izzy sat down at the computer only to frown suddenly,"The gates already open......."

The outhers walked over,"Really?"Cody said softly,"Thats kinda weird."

Davise pulled out his Digivice,"Whatever, well have to cheak it out later. Lets go destroy some spires."

The outhers nodded pressing their Digivices agenst the screen. In a flash of white light the Digidestened where gone. Once inside the Digital WOrld, those who could, armer Digivolved and knocked
down the nearest control spire enable the outhers to Digivolve. Withen 5 minutes most of the Controle Spheres where destroid.....and the Digidestened where starting to relax a bit. They never
noticed a pair of crimson brown eyes watching them with envy and sadness.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Yolei Inoe stared at the Digidestened her heart heavey as she did so. HOw she missed the days beofre this whole Digidestened thing had happened. Though she knew that had this not ave happened she
would have never know Kens true nature. She still couldn't belive what a fool she had been. Closeing her eyes breifly she returned her gaze to outher Digidestened. Sighing she leaned forward and
resighened herself to watch over them. To protect them. She would become their shadow protecter. She would protect them, forever.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The Digidestened exchanged smiles as their fammiler confidense began to return. Their earlyer battle already fadeing as the more control spheres whre knocked down. All seemed to be going well,
but suddenly a laugh that the Digidestened knew all to well peirced the air.

"Well, if it isn't the Digirats. Must you always infeast my world with your petty restance. Why don't you just give up?"

The destened children wirled around glareing at the fancy chothed empourer; As ussule Davise was the first to speak,"Not a chance, Ken, it should be you surrendering!!!Get him Flamdramon!"


And so the firey battle insuded with Ken's smart comments and Davises and the outhers own insults. Yolei watched her friends as the battled the empoure tooth and nail. How she wished she could
join their fight, but she had no Digimon to aid her in such a fight. Sighign she resighened herself to watching the battle. 'Some protecter I am.' she thought sourly. She resighened herself to
watching their battle. Suddenly Yolei saw more Tyrannomon and outher slaves of the Digimon Empourer approching fast. They where to far outnumbered. Their attacks hit the Digidestened and
their partners full force.

"No......."she whispered as she stood up.

The outhers stood painfully. Each clutching their Digimon. But one. Yolei watched as Davise yelled for a retreat. They raced for the t.v. while Yolei lept down from her perch. Once down she saw
the outhers hadn't noticed they where missing a memeber of their party. Matt. Quickly she sliped his arm over her neck. Pulling him into a semi standing position she reached down with her outher
arm and lifted up his uncouses, battered Digimon. Retreating back into the shadows she watched as the Digidestned escaped through the t.v.; just as it was blown into smitherens.

She prayed inwardly he hadn't seen her as she had dove out into the dusty battle feild and hurried of with Matt and his Digimon. She hobbled quickly through the trees. Behind her shecould hear the
shouts of anger that the 'Digifools' had escaped his grasp once more.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*The Next night...~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Matt awoke slowly. Pain. Stiffness. Rembering the last battle all to clearly he bolted up into a sitting position too quickly. Groaning he clutched his head. His fingers running hrough his thick golden
locks. Winceing he stood up. He glanced around the bare cave. He looked down to see his Digimon partner, Gabumon, laying next to him. He touched his fur gently before turning and walking out of
the cave. He glanced around t the sky that was scattered wit millions upon thousands of stars. The Digital World never ceased to amaze him with its beauty. Suddenly he saw her. She was kneeling on
the edge of the foundation of the cave. He glanced downward feeling a lurch go through his stoamake as he relized how high it seemed.

He studyed her. She seemed to be tall though he coudln't really tell. She had long lavender hair that reached the middle of her back. She dressed stranly in short dark pink shorts and long dark red shirt
that had long bell sleevs that reached the ground. Her skin was a pale white. As if she knew he was their she turned. His icy bllue eyes meet the crimoson brown of the girls.


In the moonlight I felt your heart.
Quiver like a bowstrings paws.
In the moon pale light you looked at me.
Nobody knows your heart.


She didn't speak. But she did stand. His eyes swept up her form and at that momment he knew who she was.

"Yolei."he whispeared her name. More to himself to prove she was real. How many times had he thought that what if she was alive? The thousands of things he would say, and now when he actaully had
the chance; Matt found himself speechless. All those things he'd thought up to tell her gone like leaves on the wind.

She stood so cold. So unmoveing. Yet it was her. He would know those deep crimson brown eyes anywhere. She looked different, and yet the same. She'd grown into a stunning beauty. Not that he'd
thought her ugly before, but know she was just so......different.


When the sun is gone I see you.
Beautiful and haunting, but cold.
Like the blade of a knife, so sharp so sweet.
Nobody knows your heart.


Yolei didn't know what to say. Finnly she nodded her head tentivly,"Yes, Matt, its me."


Hold off your sorrow, greif, and pain.
Locked away in the forest of the night.
Your secret heart belongs to the world.
All the things that sigh in the dark.
All the things that hide in the dark.
