And I'd like to introduce everyone with my muse digimon it is Nyankomon the cute little cat digimon with wings from my story. Say hi.

Chapter 11- Intermission Begins here


Wherever

Joe was tired of walking already. They where a long way from the TV station now, and it had been a long time since any of them had to do a lot of real walking. Now they where definitely making up for it. Izzy was and Joe had already begun to lag behind, but Sora seemed to be going strong. She was definitely trying to take it easy for the doctor and computer genius though.
"How much farther do we have to go?" Joe asked while he was debating on whether or not to throw himself down on the pavement.
"Don't even ask." Sora warned him.
"Come on Joe you can make it just a little farther." Gomomon said trying to be his usual cheerful self.
They had managed to get across the bridge with out any complaints and very quickly but then they all knew they had several miles to walk. "You know we must be getting softer in our old age." Sora said trying to lighten the mood.
"Yeah I don't quite remember being this tired when we first went through the digital world." Izzy agreed.
"You must be forgetful in your old age too." Tentomon said avoiding a weak swipe from Izzy.
"Aw you guys aren't getting old." Gomomon said "Just middle aged." That earned him a few moans and growls.
"I can't believe we have to walk all the way back to the station." Joe huffed. He really didn't mean to sound like he was complaining, but he was tired.
"What do you want to do Joe? Call a cab?" Sora asked she was getting tired of walking to.
"That's what we can do!" Izzy said eyeing something in the fog.
'What!" all the others asked in unison. "Izzy I think this fog has affected your brain." Tentomon said trying to see if Izzy was sick.
"Last time I checked there aren't many cabs driving around the city." Sora answered.
"No !" he huffed and started off towards what ever he had seen in the fog. "Come on guys I'll show you."
The group followed him to a cab parked on the side of the road where the saw him dive through the window. "What are you doing?" Sora asked. "Your not going to steal a cab are you?"
"Steal it from who?" Joe asked. "There's no one here to steal it from."
"Besides if we must we can bring it back when we are done with it." Izzy said from under the steering wheel. The car suddenly roared to life inside a minute. Joe and Sora gave each other a strangled look before scooting inside.
"Well it is better then walking." Sora muttered in agreement as they pulled out of the parking space.


The Digital World -The Continent Server

Kaoru was lost. It happened so suddenly, she didn't know what really happened. The shadows suddenly jumped out at them. Michael had pushed the girls out of the way as their digimon tried to defend them and the next thing she knew Kaoru was sliding down a slide and landed in another tunnel with Kitsumon following shortly after. After a few minutes it was obvious that the others didn't follow. That's when Kaoru decided she wasn't going to get anywhere by standing there.
This tunnel looked like the one she had just left. It was dark and narrow and there looked like strange symbols and pictures on the wall. She was frightened of the dark and actually began to miss her older brother. Sure that's saying a lot, but when you get down to it, he's always been there for her when it was dark, him or her cousin Yousuke. Since neither was there with her there was no use in crying.
"Can you see anything?" she asked Kitsumon.
"Not much." The little digimon answered.
"Come on lets see where the tunnel leads us then." Kaoru said as she began to walk slowly down the corridor.
"Do you think the others are okay?" Kitsumon asked.
"Yeah." Kaoru answered without hesitation. "They should be."
"Okay." Kitsumon said sighing following Kaoru slowly. "Your not scared are you?"
"Yes, but I guess it doesn't matter." She then smiled at her partner. "I have you, so I'll be okay." Kitsumon smiled back and let the matter drop.
They walked in silence down the corridor as Kaoru prayed that she would eventually run into the others. The hall itself seemed to narrow and twist around the pyramid like an aimless snake after a while Kaoru was certain she had gone in several circles. It was when she threw herself down against a wall because she was tired that she noticed she had been going in circles. She saw their footprints in the dust where they had already been through there. Kitsumon watched as Kaoru beat against the ground in frustration.
"What?" the little digimon asked.
"We've been going in circles!" Kaoru wailed on the verge of tears. "We've been walking for a half hour and we've been going in circles!"
"Well you have been passing all the exits." Kitsumon said before she realized that that was not going to help Kaoru feel better.
"Exits? What exits? This hall goes on and on in circles there are no exits!" Kaoru was too upset to even cry now.
"Sure there are. They're hidden though." Kitsumon said proud that she was going to get her chance to help now. That is until she looked at Kaoru again.
"Hidden? Why didn't you tell me this." She then took a deep breath and began again, "When I say do you see anything you are suppose to say 'Oh sure I see tons of hidden exits,' understand?" Kitsumon just looked at her with a confused look. Kaoru then took a deep breath to calm herself down before getting up. "Lead me back to one of the exist Kitsumon."
"Sure come on." She said before turning back the way they just come from.
"Kitsumon if you knew about the hidden exits why didn't you say anything?"
"Well I thought you could see them and where just looking for a specific one."
"No, Any exit will do." Kaoru said trying not to be upset.
"Here you go." Kitsumon said stopping in front of a place in the wall several feet away from where they had stopped. The wall didn't look any different from the rest. It looked smooth with the exception of the marks carved into the wall. Kaoru looked down at Kitsumon who simply smiled at her. Kaoru sighed and stepped towards the wall. She was about to say she didn't see anything as she was trying to put her hand against the wall but didn't because to her surprise her hand passed through where she thought the wall was. Kaoru stepped back and waved her hand on the area and encountered nothing. "Well?" Kitsumon asked. "Are you going to stand there and play or are you going to go through?" Kaoru didn't answer she just gave the wall a strange look before walking through.


Wherever

"So how many fingers am I holding up TK?" Matt asked as he tried to help his brother stand.
TK blinked at him; "I can't count your hands keep moving. All four of them."
"Uh huh." He said before turning back to Patomon. "He's definitely got a concussion. You say he hit the light rig on the way down?"
"Yep. I'm just happy he's awake." Patomon said.
"He should be happy that this set was had one of those giant airbags stuntmen on TV use." Veemon said smiling. He quit when he noticed everyone was staring. "What? I saw it on a show about how they do those neat stunts." No one answered.
TK had no time earlier to even pay attention to what type of set it was they where over and even after he hit the giant airbag he wasn't quite conscious. But he was quite lucky he actually had something to break his fall. Now the biggest problem was his concussion.
"So why are you wet again." TK asked before stumbling back to the ground.
"It's a long story." Davis sighed as he helped TK up again. "Do you remember which way the girls when?" he asked hoping to change the subject.
"That way!" he said pointing off in the air.
"Okay." Tai said before turning to Patomon "So which way did they go?"
"Through that door." The little digimon answered. "Pointing at the door where the catwalk use to be.
"Great now how do we get up there?" Davis asked.
"Why don't you just radio them?" Matt asked Tai, who was staring at the door still.
"I lost the radio." He answered.
"So why don't we go get another from that box Cody put in the lobby?" Davis asked.
"No no no no no." Tk and Patomon said together. "I'm not going back there." Patomon said.
