Chapter Three
"What's that?" asked Patamon, pointing to a black building near a lake in the distance.
"It looks like a black tower," said Takeru.
"It's huge," said Veemon.
"And it's a tower," said Daisuke.
"Uh, Daisuke," said Takeru, looking at his watch. "It's almost 9:30. We better get back before the port closes and we have to spend the night here."
The four of them headed back to the forest to get to the monitor/transporter. The two of them warped through cyberspace back into the school computer lab. Koushiro was sitting in a chair in the corner of the room reading a book.
"About time you showed up," he said. "Everyone else went home. So what did you find?"
"Not much, although a lot of Digimon we met seemed a bit unnerved," said Takeru.
"Yeah, we cheered them up with a little song," said Daisuke. "We also found a big black tower, but it was getting late so we came back."
"Black tower huh?" said Koushiro. "Let's check the Digi-Satellite to see if we can find it."
Koushiro went over to the computer and brought up a screen. The display showed satellite images of the Digital World.
"Funky," said Daisuke.
As Koushiro scanned the digital landscape, he noticed a glowing point.
"That means the satellite is reading some unusual activity," Koushiro said. He enhanced the image. "Prodigious! There is the black tower."
"Awesome," said Takeru. "Now we'll be able to scope it out."
"Yeah but not right now," said Koushiro. "It's too late."
Just then there was a red flash on the screen.
"Prodigious!" said Koushiro.
"Awesome!" said Takeru.
"Funky!" said Daisuke.
"What was that?" asked Takeru.
"I don't know but, rats! The port closed. I'm not getting the satellite feed through," Koushiro said. He shut the computer off and got up.
"This week we've got that school trip," he said as the three of them walked out the door. "I'll bring my laptop so we can go to the Digital World if we get the chance."
The three of them went home.

Daisuke went in his apartment where Jun sat on the couch.
"Where have you been?" she asked.
"I was singing a song with TGRI."
"For two hours? And don't you mean TK?"
"Yeah him."
"Whatever. Hey! I've decided to write a new book. This time, it won't be about you, it's going to be original fiction."
"Why not try fan fiction? That's getting pretty popular these days."
"Nah, you don't get paid for that. But your right, some of the greatest stuff I've ever read was fan fiction."
"I got an idea! Why don't you write about seven kids that are mysteriously transported to a place called the Digital World, where they meet Digimon: Digital Monsters that are their partners. They team up with their Digimon to find their way home through the Digital World. And the Digmon have techniques that they use to fight and protect their human partners and save the Digital World from the Dark Masters."
"No, that's too 'Pokémon meets Star Trek: Voyager,' don't you think?"
"It may seem that way at first, but as the story progresses, it will gain more of an independence. Trust me."
"No way, it's really crazy, no one will like it."
"You don't know what your missing…" With that, Daisuke went to bed.
"What's that?" asked Patamon, pointing to a black building near a lake in the distance.
