Chapter Three

Hate and Love



"Whoaaaaaaaaa!" They all yelled as the portal sucked them in.

"Now I know how a washing machine feels like!" Kazu echoed...

Rika opened her eyes; she saw trees and the real world shining brightly above her. She blinked and sat up rubbing her eyes. The first thing she saw was Ryo lying on the floor next to here, she crawled up to him and shook him gently.

"Ryo-wake up-are you ok?"

Ryo groaned a little bit, he opened his eyes and looked at Rika, "Rika?"

"You ok?" Rika asked calmly.

Ryo sat up and rubbed his head, "I'm fine…I just have a headache"

"That's good."

"It's good that I have a headache?"

"What? No I didn't say that, I-"

"Cool it Rika, I know what you meant." He grinned at her.

Rika glared at him, "Well thanks for making me blabber for nothing."

The both heard something behind them; they both looked and saw Takato, Jeri, Terri, Henry, Suzie, Kazu, and Kenta.

"Hey you two, glad your awake." Henry grinned at them.

"Henry? How long have you guys been awake?" Rika asked.

"Oh, we just woke up."

"And you didn't bother to wake us up?" Ryo asked.

"Well, you see, you looked so cute sleeping there. So we decided to let you sleep for a while." Jeri smiled.

"Cute?!" Rika asked bushing.

Ryo didn't say anything, he just stood up and walked away.

"Ryo?" Terri muttered to herself.

Ryo turned around, "Come on guys, we better get going."

"Uh-yeah-I guess," Kenta followed Ryo as he walked towards big cliffs and trees.

Soon after that, they all followed behind quietly. Well sort of, Rika was yelling at Henry for not waking them up. Henry just grinned and didn't say anything.

They walked for hours and they didn't find anything. Not one single digimon. The wind was blowing calmly, dust flying around. The digital world wasn't the same. It was sad somehow, the wind was whispering into their ears. And Rika didn't like it; it was like evil ruled the world.

Suddenly, a great explosion happened right in front of them blowing Ryo and Kenta away.

"No, Ryo! Kenta!" Terri yelled.

They all ran over to them, "Are you ok?" Takato asked as he and Kazu helped Kenta up.

Terri and Rika helped Ryo stand up, "Are you ok?" Terri and Rika asked him.

Ryo let go of them, "Yeah-what was that?" He asked looking at the hole in the ground.

"Ha, Ha, Ha!" A cold dark voice laughed.

Devimon appeared, he looked different somehow, he had black stripes all over him.

"Devimon!" They all shouted in fusion.

"Hello, tamers."

"What do you want?" Takato shouted.

"The question here is, what do you want?"

Terri glared at him, "It already happened didn't it?" She asked in awe.

"Yes, it has. There is nothing you can do now. We rule the digital world, so all of you leave or you will suffer deeply."

"We're not going to leave, till we gain love and peace in the digital world again!" Terri shouted at him.

"It's too late little girl."

"Little?" Terri's eyes twitched in anger, "I'll show you!"

"Floramon!" Floramon appeared next to Terri, "Ready to digivolve?"

Floramon nodded, "As always!"

Floramon! Digivolve to……Lillymon!

"Lillymon?" Kazu asked, "What happened to Kiwimon?"

Lillymon span vigorously, when she stopped, they all realized she was blue covered with dark blue shades instead of pink.

Everyone looked at Lillymon who was glaring at Devimon confused except for Ryo.

"This isn't a regular Floramon." Terri explained, "This is Floramon of Peace, she digivolves into whatever I want to. I'm one of the digidestined of peace."

Terri looked at Lillymon, "Come on Lills," she said calmly, "Let's show him who's little."

"Flower Cannon!" Lillymon shouted as the great big energy ball appeared and blasted from her flower staff.

It hit Devimon, but it didn't seem to hurt him. He just laughed evilly, "That does nothing to me…Touch of Evil!" He shouted as the attack aimed towards Lillymon, Lillymon shot her flower cannon causing a huge explosion in the air.

"Good job Lilly!"

"Wow! I never knew Lillymons can be strong," Kazu said in admiration.

Lillymon nodded proudly, "Hey! You're calling me weak!" She realized his insult.

"Lillymon concentrate on your task! You can get him when this is over!" Terri yelled at her as she gave Kazu a nasty grin.

Kazu backed away and hid behind Takato who was watching the battle.

"Evil Wing!" Devimon yelled. But his attack wasn't aiming towards Lillymon it was aiming towards Rika

"No!" Ryo shouted as he pushed Rika out of the way. The attack hit Ryo, "Ah!!"

"Ryo!!" Rika shouted as she looked at him. Devimon disappeared with an evil laugh echoing through the air.

They all ran towards Ryo who was lying on the floor unconscious, "We should get him to safety." Henry suggested.

Takato and Henry carried Ryo and started to look for some where to rest. Rika and the rest followed behind them.
