Chapter 2; Trouble in Japan
"I'm worried, Daisuke. Why, out of all of us digidestined children, do they need Hikari?" Iori asked.
"I don't know…I just hope that nothing happens here while they're gone. Without our Digimon we'd be defenseless to any evil Digimon," he replied.
"Maybe we can monitor what's going on…hold on a sec," Miyako said as she sat down at Hikari's computer.
"What are you doing?" Daisuke asked her.
"I'm going to trail where Genai sent the last email to her from, then I can probably patch and bring up a video window and see what all is going on in the Digital World," she replied.
"You've been spending too much time with Koushirou," Iori stated.
"The question is, will it work?" Daisuke asked her.
"It should," she replied but just then the power went out.
"I guess not," Iori said sarcastically.
"What happened? There's no storm or anything that could disrupt the power lines," Miyako said as she pressed her forehead to Hikari's desk.
"AHH!" Daisuke yelled as he looked out Hikari's window.
"What is it?" Iori asked.
"It's Digiworld," he replied.
"This can't be very good," Miyako stated.
"Taichi…Hikari…where are you kids?" Taichi's father asked walking into Hikari's room.
"Oh, hi Mr. Kamiya," Daisuke said.
"Where are the others?" he asked.
"AHH! WHAT IS THAT!" Taichi's mother yelled from the backyard. They all ran outside to see several dark figures descend from the dimensional rift that separated the real world from the digital world.
"That must be what Genai was talking about when he said that there was a new evil," Miyako stated.
"What's going on kids?" Mrs. Kamiya asked.
"It's kind of like when that evil Digimon invaded the entire district and tried to kill Hikari," Daisuke replied.
"But Myotismon is dead…we were there, we saw Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon defeat him. And after they all left to fight in the continent that was in the sky," Mr. Kamiya stated.
"About an hour ago, Hikari got an email from Genai…he's a friend from Digiworld, saying that they needed her help," Miyako stated.
"So Hikari and the original chosen digidestined left to fight while we stayed here just in case something like this happened. Only we don't have our Digimon," Iori replied.
"So what do we do?" Mrs. Kamiya asked.
"I don't know," Daisuke replied. The city was covered in an eerie black fog and screaming could be heard from all over the district.
"I have an idea, follow me," Miyako said. Taichi's mother and father followed them into Hikari's room.
"But Miyako…the power's out…" Iori started to say.
"Hikari always has a battery pack for it. There…now to find the right disk," she said as she rummaged through her bag.
"Wow! You really do hang out with Koushirou too much," Daisuke stated.
"This is no time for jokes! Ah…here it is," she said as she popped the disk into the hard drive.
"Come…on, come on," Iori cried. The Bakamon were getting closer with each passing minute.
"Miyako…hurry!" Daisuke yelled.
"Come on, there…" she said and a blinding flash of light lit up Hikari's room. Just then the Bakamon burst through the front door.
"Just stay still and keep quiet," Miyako said.
"There's no one here, let's go," a Bakamon said.
"What was that?" Mr. Kamiya asked.
"It's a Digital Barrier. Koushirou told me once that when Bakamon were going after everyone, Genai sent this to him. It saved him and his parents. So I downloaded the same program onto a disk in case of an emergency," she stated.
"Wow, good thinking. It's times like this I'm glad you're a computer nerd," Daisuke said.
"I'm not a computer nerd! I'm a hacker!" she said.
"Whatever…now we have to figure out what's going on," he said. A loud voice was heard across the entire town.
"KNOW THIS DIGIDESTINED! I, LADYMYOTISMON, WILL RULE THE DIGITAL WORLD AND THIS ONE! THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN STOP ME! YOUR DIGIMON ARE UNDER MY CONTROL AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO! SHOW YOURSELF AND I MIGHT SPARE THEM!" the voice finished.
"What are we going to do?" Iori asked looking at Daisuke.
"I don't know…I just don't know," he replied.
