Matt: Last time we found out what was wrong with TK. Some things called the Orbs of Fate have become implanted inside him. Tai says they first entered after the fight with Devimon, but I get the feeling that Izzy knows exactly what's going on. If he does and something happens to TK. I'll… anyway Kari's the only one who can help TK, but I bet a lots gonna happen between now and then.

(Insert Digimon Theme Song)

Episode Seven

1 "Dark Dreams and Radiant Light"

TK sat inside of Spiral Mountain. He was awaiting the arrival of his two faithful servants. He looked at Arukinimon next to him.

"Arukinimon I've been meaning to ask you…what happened to Mummymon?"

"Huh? I don't know? I really don't remember what happened before that black gear came out."

"Well…"

"Master. We have returned."

"Ah, looks like our 'friends' have arrived. Bring them in."

"Master the cat is with him."

"I know. Devimon isn't the only one who can use black gears. Where are the other two?"

"The two females escaped. But we have brought these two."

"TK what the hell is going on here?"

"Ahh Koshiro, Taichi, welcome to my humble home. To bad Aunt Sora and Hikari escaped. Arukinimon."

"Yes sir?"

"You lead the search for the other two. Leave these two to me."

"Yes sir. Nefertimon, Pegasusmon, let's go."

TK watches the digimon leave. He turns towards Tai and Izzy.

"You won't be alone for long, with those three scouring the Digiworld. Your friends won't be able to hide."

"TK what's wrong with you! Can't you see that trying to destroy the Digiworld is a bad thing. Do you know how many lives would be lost. Not just this world but Earth too."

"Tai's right. Every world would slowly be covered by darkness. Making it easier for tyrants like Sirocco to take over."

"Who's Sirocco?"

"An old friend of ours. If you really wish to know Taichi, ask Koushiro. He seems good at telling secrets. Now I need to send out some more Black Gears. You two can not leave here."

Izzy, and Tai watch TK leave through a door hidden by shadows. Izzy looked at Tai. He sighed and sat on the ground.

"This is all my fault. I knew something was wrong the moment I saw TK before they came here."

"What do you mean?"

"I saw TK right before he went to your house to come here, he had this gleam in his eye that had me worried. I knew something was different."

"What? He is under a spell, right?"

"Maybe, you said it yourself, this all started with Devimon. What I don't know."

"You better not be keeping something else from us."

"NO, nothing like that. It's just perhaps the Orb's of fate entered him after every battle that he won. Starting with Devimon, then with Puppetmon, and finally, Piedmon."

"Three out of six!"

"Yes, and who knows how many he's fought and won after that?"

"Huh? But we haven't defeated any digimon since Diaboramon. And who was there with us?"

"Well Matt and TK, but he didn't defeat him. Omnimon did."

"Yes but what helped WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon DNA digivolve."

"The power of… Hope. All the hope of the kids who sent the E-mails. And that's TK's crest."

"Exactly. So that's another Orb there. Where the other two came from is a mystery."

"Hey Izzy, can these Orbs take the shape of objects?"

"Yes they can, the Dark Rings and Black Gears are byproducts of the Orbs transforming at one time."

"Could they perhaps become a crest?"

"A crest? Maybe, are you thinking that the crest of Dreams is maybe one of the Orbs of Fate?"

"Yeah, I mean it's a possibility, all this started when the crest glowed."

"Then, the only to free TK…"

"Is to destroy the Crest of Dreams."

"I think that the Crest of Dark Dreams is more appropriate. If only I had my computer, then I could E-mail the others with our news!"

Tai and Izzy are silence by a large crash. The hidden door that TK went through is blow off it's hinges. The room is filled with dust. A figure walks in towards them.

"Are you two all right?"

"Leomon! Boy, are we glad to see you. Let's get out of here before Mr. Sunshine gets back."

"Right, Leomon digivolve to… SaberLeomon. Hop on I will take you to where your friends are."

SaberLeomon leaps out a window and down the mountain. TK looks out the window. He simply sighs and sends out two digimon, Pixymon and Ogermon.

"um SaberLeomon I think we're being followed." Izzy told the digimon.

"Watch out!" Tai cried.

"Pixie Bomb!"

"Pummel Wap!"

SaberLeomon dodges the attacks and continues down Spiral Mountain. Izzy decides that now is a good time to let Tai in on one more little secret.

He lifts his hands up and whispers something. A bright purple beam shots out and knocks the Black gears out of Pixymon. Pixymon falls to floor, dazed but other wise unharmed. Ogermon once again launches his Pummel Wap, It Singes the ends of Tai's hair.

"That was way to close."

Izzy thinks to himself, "Maybe Tai is to busy watching the road to notice my attacks. I'll try once more."

He lifts his hands up again, he puts them together. He clasps his fingers except for his index finger. He whispers something again and a small purple pulse shots out and disintegrates the Black Gear. Ogermon stops and scratches his head. He shrugs and walks off into the woods. Izzy sighs and turns forward. Tai is looking straight at him.

"NO more secrets huh? What the hell was that!"

"It was my Spirit Pulse. It disintegrates anything, animal, vegetable or mineral. It's quiet powerful."

"How did you do it though. We sure could've used that back there on Spiral Mountain."

"I'm sorry but TK was there. So were the Digimon. SaberLeomon were are the others?"

"On File island. There is a Short cut through a portal at the foot of the Mountain."

Just as he said these words they disappeared through an unseen doorway.

"What the hell just happened!"

"We went through a portal. It's a dimensional doorway that can lead to different parts of the same world or a different world all together."

Tai looks at Izzy with a look of confusion. He shrugs his shoulders and looks ahead. He spots two very familiar shapes.

"Kari, Sora! Your okay."

"Of course we are Tai…"

'Tai! Tai, it's me Koromon!"

"And Motimon,"

"They regressed to their in-training forms, but why?"

"We don't know, when we came through the portal all of the digimon became their in-training forms. Including Biyomon, any word on Matt, Mimi or Joe?"

"No TK took my lab top, we have no way of communicating with the others, unless we go person."

"Sorry Izzy that's not possible."

"How come Leomon?"

"There are no Digiports on File Island. Devimon destroyed them all."

"And I don't have my D-terminal it stopped working when we arrived on the island."

"Then we're trapped until Mimi and Joe arrive."

The Digi-destined look at each other. Their thoughts are interrupted as a loud crash is heard in the distance.

"What was that?"

"I don't know Kari, let's go find out."

"Tai wait a minuet are you sure it's safe?"

"I'm sure Tai wouldn't let anything happen if it wasn't."

They head towards were the sound came from. They are surprised to find a Control Spire laying on the ground. Two figures are seen through the dust. When it clears the Digi-Destined are surprised to find Gennai and Matt. Garurumon is standing next to them.

"Matt you found Gabumon, but how'd you do it?"

"We'll save that for later, any way Kari your D-Terminal should work now, this Control Spire was blocking the signal. Izzy, you have to tell us how these Digivises work, right Gennai."

The children look at Izzy, he sighs and looks at the floor.

"Okay, when Ken placed his old Digivise into the Dark Ocean the power of the digivises shifted so that our digimon could no longer reach their ultimate or mega forms."

"But didn't the crest do that?"

"Yes and No,"

"It's one or the other,"

"Well yes the did help but no we don't need them to allow for ultimate digivolution. You see the crests are like talisman. They are an outside source that help bring out a power we have inside."

"Come again?"

"Our crest are powered by our strengths. That' why they have the attributes they have, Courage Friendship Love, Knowledge and Light."

"So the crest are just tools, the reason our digimon are able to digivolve comes from inside us?"

"Correct Sora, that's why when Apocalymon took our crest our digimon were still able to reach the stronger forms."

"So does that mean that all the digimon can reach their mega forms?"

"No, to do that the Digi-destined must have their own power and the powers of hope and light."

"Like when TK and I used the crest to bring forth the arrows that helped Gabumon and Agumon reach their mega levels!"

"Exactly."

"then why do the other kids get our power?"

"Okay including Kari and TK how many new kids are there?"

"Six, Davis, Yolei, Cody, Ken, Kari and TK."

"And how many of us are left,"

"Six also, Me, Tai, Matt, You, Joe and Mimi. So?"

"Each one of us powers one of the new D-3's. Whose power goes where is the hard part. We know that each digivise has its own light, that light transfers to the D-3's when they are present in the Digiworld or are within shouting distance. Now I have some questions, Gennai why is it that you only tell me TK, or Kari thing that affect us or the Digiworld."

"Because you three understand it better then the others."

"Understand what better?"

"The Digiworld."

"Um I hate to disrupt but here comes trouble."

The group looks up and saw Pegasusmon, Nefertimon, and Arukinimon.

"How did you two escape? Get them you fools!"

To Be Continued…

Will the Digi-destined get captured? And can Kari save TK before it's to late?

Stay tuned to find out!
