Chapter 5- Dragracing Digimon Don't get Tickets
The Digital World -File Island
"Sakura!" Kenshin yelled as he watched his sister dodge a flying bolder.
A Snimon had attacked them just as they reached the village. The digimon told them to go hide in a house while they divert its attention. Kenshin made it to one first, but Sakura hadn't.
"Bunny Blaster!" Terriormon hit the Snimon but it just bounced off its hard head. Came after Sakura with its twin sickles.
"Sakura! Drop!" Kenshin yelled as it tried to dive-bomb her. It sailed inches away from her head.
"Biyomon digivolve to..... ..... Birdramon!" her digimon turned into the flaming bird and gave chase to the Snimon. Kenshin ran to the prone form of his sister.
"Come on lazy! You can't stay here!" he said tugging at her.
"Biyomon digivolved..." she whispered in astonishment.
"Get out of the way!" Terriormon shouted pushing them into motion.
"Move! Sakura, MOVE!" Kenshin yelled as he yanked her to her feet.
"Terriormon digivolve to..... .....Galadramon!" Kenshin's digimon digivolved to deflect Snimon's Twin sickles as Birdramon sent a meteor wing crashing into Snimon. Snimon was blown aside then turned onto Birdramon as he forgot the siblings.
"Run to the temple!" Galadramon yelled as he stayed to watch their back. It was a second meteor wing that sent Snimon to the ground. The two digimon then ran to catch up to their partners.
"What a hard head" Birdramon said before turning back into Biyomon.
"Is he .... Is he dead?" Kenshin asked.
"No silly digimon don't die!" Sakura snapped.
"He's just unconscious. " Galadramon said before turning back into Terriormon. "We need to hurry before he wakes up. He's a hard opponent that won't keep him down for long."
Kenshin grabbed Terriormon to give him a hug but Sakura grabbed his arm and began dragging him to keep up. "I'm proud of you." She told Biyomon.
"Thanks Sakura, Anything for you." She smiled back as they reached the otherside of the village.
"Hey where's all the digimon form this village?" Kenshin asked finally wrenching himself free from his sister's grasp. They all stared up at the temple. Looking up they could see a set of steep stairs that lead into a dark doorway and on the top of the temple was another door that had no stairs leading to it.
"Probably in there." Sakura mumbled as they looked up. "Uh Terriormon?"
"Yeah?"
"What type of Digimon live here any way?"
"I don't know." He shrugged "The Pagumon I talked to didn't say anything."
"Great." She mumbled again putting her hand to her head.
"Come on Sis let's go." Kenshin said tugging her sleeve. "It's almost dark."

"Right! To the Right! Sora screamed as she watched another black bolt come towards them. Joe swerved right. The Radio blared some strange song that no one seemed to pay attention to.
"Izzy! Are you sure this will work!" Joe asked as he fought to keep the car on the bridge.
"Yes, just keep..."
"Left!" Sora cut him off in mid-sentance.
"...going. Once we get far enough out of the fogs influence ...."
"Right!" Sora shouted again as the bolt shook the entire bridge.
"....our digimon will be able to digivolve." Izzy tried to sound calm he really did. But it was hard to be calm when you are being thrown about the car.
"Left!" Sora squealed as the car swerved and she slammed against Joe's seat as he fought to control the car.
"Are you okay?" Gomomon asked as she fought to reclaim her position. She nodded a response and resumed her watch.
"Izzy...."
"Left!"
"... If this doesn't work. I'm going to send you my insurance bill!" Joe said trying to follow Sora's directions.
"It will!"
"Left!"
"Just a few feet beyond the bridge!"
"Why wouldn't our digivices work at the camp if it's the fog?" Joe asked trying to be absolutely certain he didn't do something that would get him killed.
"Right!"
"Because of the interference form the gate being closed." Izzy explained grabbing the seat as the car jumped at another close call.
"Great." Joe muttered.
"Left!"
The car burst out of the fog bank at full speed swerving and fighting to stay on the road as the black bolts rained down. "Just ahead behind those tree!" Izzy said pointing to a spot down the road. Tentomon flew out the window and began sending shocks at the abnormally giant Seadramon.
"Tentomon!" Izzy yelled watching his friend fly at the giant.
"Keep going Joe! He's distracting him!" Sora yelled as Joe tried to look back. "We will need more room for them to fight."
"If they go back into the fog they may de-digivolve!" Izzy said trying to sit up.
As the car passed through the last of the fog's influence their digivices began to glow. Gomomon jumped out the car and onto the road as Joe stopped the car.
"Gomomon digivolve to... .... Ikkakumon!"

Mimi looked at Toy Town in horror. Then buildings where destroyed and there where unconscious Numomon everywhere.
"What happened?" Kiki whispered. "This is nothing like what you said it would be." The child looked up at Mimi who looked ready to cry. Ladybugmon and Palomon gave her sympathetic looks as Mimi fought back her tears.
"it was such a beautiful place." She said pushing down her urge to cry to the deepest place she could find. Kiki leaned against Mimi. She didn't know what to do to make her feel better, but this seemed to work because Mimi gave the child a teary smile.
It's getting dark." Palomon said as Mimi wiped her face. "Let's find a place to stay first then worry about this later."
Mimi nodded in agreement then stood up. "Come on." She said gathering her courage. "We have work to do."
Kiki smiled and nodded in agreement as the group began walking down the hill.

Matt and Tai had been fighting with one of the hall doors for several minutes. At least till Matt threw up his hands and sat down along the wall beside Gabumon and Agumon. But Tai didn't give up. "Come on Tai. Just Stop."
"But I think I almost got it."
"You know there's..." Gabumon started but stopped when Tai fell down at their feet when he jerked too hard and lost his balance.
"Almost got it?" Matt asked cocking an eyebrow as the digimon just shook their heads.
"Hey I don't see you trying."
"Because it won't open." Matt said calmly said closing his eyes and putting his head back.
"Tai, there's a..."
"Not right now Agumon. We gotta get this door open."
Matt sighed. "The more things change the more they stay the same." As the digimon just shrugged and let him continue to tire himself out when they knew there was another door that would lead them out.
"How was I to know the lousy door would lock." He mumbled as he continued to fight with the door handle. The Radio cam to life as they heard Kari's worried voice ask them about some sound.
"No." Matt answered as he waited for her response.
Silence
"Kari? What's Wrong?" he asked.
Silence
Tai yanked the radio from Matt's hands. "Kari? Answer. What's Wrong?"
Silence
Tai and Matt looked at each other before Tai once again tried to get a response form Kari. An answer came back this time.
"There's... that looks like... spiders... chasing.. vary... Watch OUT!" A crackled message came through. "TK!"
The digidestine looked at each other again and jumped at the door as they frantically resumed their struggles.
"Guys!" the two digimon angrily yelled. "There is another door." They pointed down the hall. The two men looked at each other again and then ran to follow their digimon.

Birdramon had landed within sight of the forest area where their target was located. She knew there use to be a house in this area. It was the house Puppetmon had used. Enishi and Shiro knew the story from TK. It wasn't a pleasant memory for Birdramon. She changed back to Biyomon out of exhaustion.
"Don't worry, Biyomon." Enishi said "I don't think you'll have to do anything else."
"Yeah, any trouble and we can cover your backs." Icecubmon said jumping happily. The white dog-like creature was always as energetic as his partner, Enishi watched Shiro yawn and sleepwalk around. Well he's usually energetic, Enishi thought as he looked at the woods around him.
"I guess we need to find a place to rest before it gets too dark to see our hands in front of our faces." Enishi suggested. Shiro had already taken care of this for him. He looked to find Shiro sleeping under a tree.
"Well I guess that's taken care of." Salamon said as Enishi looked down at him. When they looked back Biyomon had fallen asleep next to Shiro.
Enishi began searching through his backpack for his flashlight. When he turned it on nothing happened till he smacked it a few times. "Ah! There we go." He shined it around "You stay here and watch them. Me and Salamon are going to find something for a fire."
"Are you sure that's safe?" Icecubmon asked. "You know what Smokey says! " he chimed repeating the latest commercial he heard.
"Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Don't worry." Enishi smiled as he began following the trial. Icecubmon sat down next to Shiro and watched the light disappear. When he noticed that Shiro was shivering he curled up on his chest to help keep him warm.
