Hello again!! I'm back to writing once more. I don't have much to say
today!! (Shock of all shocks.) I still don't own digimon, now on to the
story!
Tai wearily got ready for school. For the last three nights he had not had much sleep. The reason for this problem was that every time he slept, he was plagued with dreams or even a few times nightmares. He sighed as he finished buttoning his shirt and slipped on his jacket. He wasn't ready to face a day of school, let alone the trip to the digital world after. Tai finally slung on his bag, said goodbye to his mother, and headed out the door.
He headed down the street, running a shaking hand through his hair as he walked. It seemed to take forever for him to get to school and every thing seemed a little blurry as he looked around. Finally he made it to his first class and sat down in his chair with a sigh.
"What is wrong with me?" Tai mumbled as he cradled his head in his hands to keep it from falling on the desk.
The final bell rang and their Sensei quickly jumped into the lesson. Tai tried to listen but kept on falling in and out of semi- consciousness.
While Tai was trying to stay awake he didn't realize someone was watching him. Rina stared at the teen, seeing him struggle to stay awake. Concern was noticeable on her features. Her eyebrows were creased in worry and a light frown took the place of her normal smile. It was obvious to her that this boy needed some help and he wasn't going to help himself. She couldn't do anything right now though. He would wonder why she was watching him if she mentioned something to the teacher, and right now she did not need his suspicion.
Soon the class was over and everyone headed out into the hall. Tai walked out and leaned against a wall for a moment. During the middle of class his head had started to pound and he could barely stand the pain and his exhaustion. He started to walk slowly to his next class when someone grabbed his hand, catching him off his guard, and drug him into an empty classroom.
"What do you think you're doing walking around half asleep? You should be at home!" Someone hissed in the dark at him.
"Who are you and why do you care so much about my well being?" Tai asked the figure in the dark. He was a little annoyed that someone had noticed that he wasn't quiet up to par.
The figure did not tell Tai her name. (Tai could tell that the voice belonged to a girl.) The person did however tell him why they cared, and their answer shocked him into silence.
"If you're planning on going to the digital world you better be at a one hundred percent. Isn't that what you told the others? Practice what you preach as they say." The voice questioned him in the dark.
"How do you know what I said?" Tai asked shocked that so much information had leaked out.
"I know more than you think, but I won't go into that now. You should at least head to the nurse if you feel you have to be a tough guy and stay at school." The girl sounded almost like she was scolding him.
"I'll go, but I want to talk to you again." Tai told the person.
"Fine, we'll have to make a date to meet by e-mail. Don't worry; I already know your address." The voice agreed.
Tai nodded and then stopped abruptly it hurt his head too much to even tilt it a little.
"Can you make it to the nurse on your own?" the voice asked sounding concerned.
"Yeah," Tai mumbled softly, "I can make it."
"Good, then I will leave you now." The voice sounded relieved that he could go on his own. He then felt a small wind pick up and he could no longer here the girl breathing. She had left without even opening the door.
Tai decided to think about this strange event later. His head hurt too much and he was going to stay true to his word right now. He left the classroom and headed towards the nurses office.

(At the digital world.)
Deep within the chamber where no light shone, a shadowy figure was planning their next move.
"The guardian is getting to be quiet a nuisance." The figure hissed. "I must get rid of her once and for all. How though, I haven't even made her show her face yet." Then an awful thought struck the creature. The shadow dwelled and relished on the plan it was brilliant. Also it was totally foolproof there was no way the guardian would resist.
"Yes, it will work. Mu wha Ha haa." The figure cackled in delight at the prospect. "There is much to be done." The figure whispered and with that walked off to start putting the plan in motion.
* * *
(3:00 at the computer lab.)
Tai walked in the computer lab alone. He felt a little better since he had gotten a few hours of rest. He knew the others would suspect something was up. He had History with Matt and Science with Sora so the group had certainly noticed his absence from these classes. As soon as he entered he was bombarded with questions (as he predicted!)
"I know I wasn't in class but I'm okay now, see?" He tried to reassure his friends that he was okay. The answer seemed to keep most of them satisfied but a few of them still looked skeptical. If they didn't believe him they still let the subject rest for then. The group decided to head off to the digital world and they were gone after a few seconds.
* * *
(Back in the real world.)
Nothing had happened in the digital world. Everything looked okay and they weren't attacked. This got everyone's suspicions roused this was strange behavior for the enemy. Ken had suggested that they were probably planning a huge attack and Izzy agreed. Tai told everyone that the group would head to the digital world the next day at the same time. Everyone agreed and then headed off in his or her own direction towards home.

(At the Kamiya household.)
Kari sighed as she sprawled out on the couch. She was worried about Tai. She could tell when something was wrong and right now she felt that there was something really bothering her beloved brother. He had hardly eaten a thing and he had already headed to bed. The strangest part was that it was only 7:00. That was extremely early for Tai. Kari sighed again knowing that even if she tried to talk to him about it she would not learn what she truly wanted to know.
While Kari was thinking to herself Tai sat out on the balcony again as he had the past nights. He was thinking and falling asleep at the same time when his d-terminal beeped announcing it had a new message. Tai silently looked up the message then realized what it was. It read. . .
Dear Bearer of courage,
I am pleased that you took my advice today. So as you kept your word to me I will keep my word to you. If you wish to ask me questions I will be waiting in the digital world tomorrow. I will be in this area.
(See map) I shall see you if you choose to come.
Sincerely,
The bearer of Peace
It was an invitation from the mysterious girl. So she was a digidestined. That explained why she knew about the digital world.
Tai looked at the message for a while then sighed.
"Might as well," He mumbled, "maybe I can get some answers."
Tai began to feel weary again and decided to head to bed. He walked slowly inside feeling more tired than he ever had in his entire life. He settled underneath his covers and fell to sleep before his head even touched the pillow.
As Tai slept he was once again plagued with dreams. In one that he remembered well the next day he saw many strange things.
He was standing in a clearing with the other digidestined at his side. Before them a great darkness began to grow. The darkness seemed to turn into a large cat-like predator it crouched and then all of a sudden it jumped getting ready trying to pounce on the teens in standing before it. Tai did not fear the dark figure for some strange reason. He looked into its' blood red eyes as it leaped into the air. The creature came closer until it was nearly upon them. Then he felt himself lift his hand as if commanding the beast to stop. As he did this the air seemed to grow thick and hard around him. The creature was only three feet from its' prey when it crashed into the solid air. Tai let down his hand and the air became normal once more. The cat lay defeated on the ground and then he woke up.
Tai woke and clasped his head. It felt like his skull was being pulled apart. Soon the feeling stopped and his thoughts returned to the dream. What had it meant? Who was the foe of darkness really? He could not dwell on these thoughts any longer. His exhaustion was getting the best of him and he was now forced once more to sleep.
Gatomon, who had been lying on the desk in the siblings' room, had seen Tai wake. She was worried about their leader's well being. She had noticed his actions had been slower than normal today.
"I wonder what's wrong?" Gatomon whispered.
She decided to approach Kari about it tomorrow. Her partner could probably answer her questions. With this decided, she allowed herself to get some rest as well.

(Across the city in another house.)
The familiar figures that were normally in the digital world are seen in a small apartment. The large figure is feverently typing on a computer before them. The small figure is sitting beside them watching the larger figure work.
"Do you think he will except your invitation?" the petite figure queried its' companion.
"I think he will. He really wanted some answers." The tall figure replied.
"This will be good they need to know who you are." The short figure smiled up at its' friend.
"Yes, they do need to know. There have been enough secrets for now." The larger stated to the smaller then added as an after thought, "Maybe this will help us find the second representative."
"You never know." The small figure replied. " But right now we should get some sleep while we can."
The tall figure nodded and they both disappear from sight once more.

Oh wow! That was a long chapter for me. I'm trying to get better at writing longer ones. Oh well, please review!
