Part Five
The First Battle
Flight after flight of stairs passed under Kari's feet. "It's headed for the roof.." she
kept telling herself as she drew closer and closer.
"Kari! Wait up!" Patamon called. But she didn't lose pace, she couldn't afford to.
"Patamon, we have to hurry! Someone might need our help!"
Finally she reached the end of the stairs to the metal door of the roof. Kari shoved
it forward. The door swung open only for her to face an empty rooftop. "Where is it?" she
asked herself scanning left and right.
"Kari!" Patamon came up panting. He fluttered behind her exhausted from having
to chase her.
"Where is it Patamon? I knew it would come here." Kari said concerned. She
stepped onto the windy rooftop, still looking for the strange creature that passed by her
window moments earlier. But all she could see was the dark gravel of the roof, the
shadowy tops of the surrounding buildings, and the street lights shining from below.
"Maybe we missed it," Patamon suggested.
"BOMB STINGER!"
"What?" Like a flash, a rain of giant stingers flew down before her.
"Look out Kari!" Patamon suddenly pushed her aside before one of them struck
down on her.
"Uh, thanks Patamon," Kari said both grateful and shaken. "Where did that come
from?"
"I think it came from that dark creature we saw," Patamon assumed. A loud
buzzing hummed above them and Kari felt the air begin to stir around her.
"Ughh.." Kari shielded her face with her arm to protect from the push of the
violent winds coming down from above. She struggled against it look to the sky to see
what was causing everything. She gasped.
A giant bumble bee-looking creature hovered over the rooftop. It's giant wings
flapped rapidly that they seem like violet blurs out of it back, they were responsible for the
relentless winds. It bore six legs and its giant, rounded body was striped in black and
yellow. Behind its black head came a mane of red and it held two sloping antennae and no
appearance of eyes. The giant stingers she saw that had attacked her were on the bottom
of its lower body.
"It's Flymon!" Patamon cried.
"What?" Kari asked confused.
"Flymon's an insect Digimon with a fierce attack called Bomb Stinger. It's not one
of the nicer Digimon." Patamon explained.
"BOMB STINGER!" it yelled as it dove towards them. The stingers on its lower
body flew right at them. Kari leapt away from them before it shot down on her. Patamon
flew above the attack to hover right in front or Flymon.
"BOOM BUBBLE!" A gust of force suddenly flew out of his mouth and right
towards Flymon. It flew around the blast and flew with increasing speed towards
Patamon. He dodged away before Flymon crashed into him. He quickly turned around and
shot out another Boom Bubble at it from behind. The attack actually struck into Flymon's
back. It paused, stunned at first, but soon turned around towards Patamon.
"BOMB STINGER!" It shot out one of its stinger towards him. Patamon dodged
it, but wasn't ready for the second stinger it launched. He was struck back and began to
fall from the sky.
"Patamon!" Kari ran and caught him before he collided to the ground. "Patamon!
Patamon, are you all right?!" Kari cried out frantically to him.
"DIE!"
"Huh? AAH!" Another series of stingers flew towards her, fortunately, she quickly
leapt aside from the attack while huddling an unconscious Patamon in her arms.
"BUBBLE BLAST!" Suddenly a storm of pink bubbles flew into Flymon's head. It
cried out in pain from the surprise attack and drew back.
"Kari!" a familiar voice called.
"Tai! Matt!" Kari called back relieved. She rose to her the face her worried brother
and his best friend.
"Kari! Are you all right!?" Tai asked, gripping the sides of her shoulders in
concern.
"I-I'm fine, but Patamon.."
"Don't worry, he'll be fine." Tsunomon assured.
"Huh? You can talk too!?" Kari cried out shocked to the stuffed animal under
Matt's arm.
"Yep! Isn't that obvious?" he remarked.
"Agghhh..." Patamon moaned. Kari turned her attention back to him.
"Patamon!" Kari exclaimed with joy.
"Ka-Kari, are you all right?" he asked weakly.
"Oh Patamon, you were so brave!" she complimented.
"You really think so?"
"Uh-huh."
"BUBBLE BLAST!" Koromon sprayed out another storm of bubbles towards
Flymon. This time though, Flymon was ready. It zipped to the side away from the attack
and zoomed right towards it. Koromon was struck from its flying attack and rolled back
from the force.
"Koromon!" Tai quickly rushed to his digimon's aid. "Hey, little guy you all right?"
"Ugh, he's too strong for us. You have to make me stronger Tai," Koromon said,
struggling against the pain.
"I don't understand."
"BOMB STINGER!" A line of its stingers shot right up towards Matt and Kari.
They both leapt away in opposite directions from it. Dodging it, they both ended to the
ground, and Kari had accidentally let Patamon out of her arms.
"Patamon!"
"Kari! Look out!" Matt called out.
"What?" she turned to see a diving Flymon headed right towards her.
"AAAHHH!" With one swift motion, it snatched her up into its huge upper claws.
"Kari!" Tsunomon leapt out and was ready to attack the big insect, but Flymon
swiped him away with one of its other claws. Tsunomon rolled back before Matt.
"Tsunomon!"
It's wings began to pick up speed, and it shot into the air, taking Kari with it.
"Matt! Tai! Help me!" she cried out frightened.
Patamon shook out of his unconscious state to see Kari being taken away. "No!
Kari!" He flapped his batty ears and rose, struggling into the air after it. "I'll save you Kari!
BOOM BUBBLE!" Patamon shot out another of his attacks. He struck Flymon into the
back and it turned around agitated.
"BOMB STINGER!" Flymon launched a stinger at him and it struck into Patamon.
But he took the blow and stayed in air before him, unwilling to give up.
"BOOM BUBBLE!" Patamon fired another shot at Flymon. It dodged it and shot
another stinger into him. But, Patamon still refused to surrender to the blows.
"Patamon!" Kari cried out to him, trying to encourage him to stop taking so much
pain and suffering. But still, he hung on and remained to take Flymon's attacks. Even
though it looked as though that Patamon couldn't hold it for long.
"KAARIII!" Tai called out. 'Urgh! What can I do?! I have to help her!' he thought
to himself frustrated.
"Tai!" Tai quickly turned to the voice beside him. Koromon glared up at him with
determined eyes.
"You have to make me stronger... You can do it," he said sternly.
"Tsunomon.." Matt gently picked up the injured digimon.
"We have to help her Matt... Make me stronger, only you can do it..."
Tai and Matt looked at each other with confused glances. But Tai's expression
changed to a more serious expression. Matt watched him as he took the Digivice out of
his pocket. Matt did the same.
"If you can help my sister Koromon, then I believe in you!" Tai's digivice began to
glow and shake. Suddenly a burst of white light burst from its small screen into the dark
night sky and nearly blew him away.
Matt got the hint. "Ready Tsunomon?!" The same light shot from Matt's digivice
as well. The beams of light streamed up into the black sky and their glow escaped into the
clouds. But moments later, a white burst of light exploded above them. The night was
shed away by the illumination of an enormous portal that opened above them. Matt and
Tai struggled against the overwhelming force that seemed to try to pull them from the
very ground. Two colorful pillars of light blasted from the white wormhole and cast down
on Koromon and Tsunomon.
Flymon paused in his battle with Patamon and looked on to the new force that
caught his attention. 'What is that?' Kari asked herself as she blocked away the light from
her eyes with her hand. 'What's this power?'
"KOROMON DIGIVOLVE TO.....AGUMON!"
"TSUNOMON DIGIVOLVE TO....GABUMON!"
"Whoa," Tai and Matt looked wide-eyed at the two entirely different creatures that
were once Koromon and Tsunomon.
Koromon became a small, round orange T-rex looking dino with long claws on its
hands and feet. His big round eyes were now a light green color and he had a stubby tail.
Tsunomon had become a dog-looking creature that stood on its two legs. He wore
a gray, blue- striped fur coat over his head and it hung over its back and in the front of its
paws. The body under his fur coat was yellow with a blue and red pattern on its stomach.
A pointed golden horn came from the top of his head and his eyes were now a red color.
He also had a stubby tail.
"What the heck happened to Koromon and Tsunomon?!" Tai exclaimed breathless.
"GAH!" Patamon wasn't able to take any more damage from Flymon's attacks. He
fell back from the sky and fell back to the rooftop. Matt rushed over to him and picked
him up off the ground.
"Hey, are you all right Patamon?" Matt asked. But there was no response, but
Matt felt him still breathing.
"You did good Patamon."
"Now Gabumon!" the new Koromon called to the once Tsunomon creature.
"PEPPER BREATH!"
"BLUE BLASTER!"
A great fireball flew out of the orange dino's mouth and a beam of blue ice water
shot out of the fur-coated dog creature's mouth towards Flymon. But Flymon weaved
around the attacks and shot another row of Bomb Stingers towards them. They dodged
away from the attacks. Flymon took the opportunity to retreat with Kari.
"KAARRRIII!" Tai called.
"Tai! Matt!"
"Urgh! Shoot another of those fireballs at that thing!" Tai commanded towards his
Digimon.
"Wait Tai!" Matt interrupted.
"Matt! That thing's getting away with Kari!" Tai yelled back at him while pointing
to the escaping Flymon.
"If they attack Flymon they could hit Kari!" Matt reminded.
" Well, Patamon's too weak to go after her and he's the only one who can fly! So
what do you suppose we do huh?!"
Matt looked down from Tai's gaze. He was silent. There wasn't anything he could
think of to save Kari.
"Urgh, KARRIII!!" Tai called out in frustration.
"Urgh! Let me go!" Kari demanded. "Where are you taking me?!"
"To my master," he replied in a buzzing, scratchy voice.
"Your master? What do they want with with me?!"
"Your destruction."
Kari was silent with shock. She looked around hopelessly. She stared back to see a
helpless, frightened Tai and Matt. "Someone help me!!" she cried out.
"LIGHTNING PAW!"
A white blur bursted out from nowhere and collided into the side of Flymon's head.
Kari suddenly flew out Flymon's grasp into the empty night air.
"AAAAHHHH!!" she screamed. She began to feel the pull towards the ground
begin. Everything just stopped and became silent. The air began to rush past her body and
the buildings' forms soon blurred beyond sight. Kari closed her eyes tightly, trying not to
face her own doom.
But everything was suddenly swept away. "Huh?" A dark figure had jumped from
another rooftop and caught her from the air. They parried off the stumbling Flymon's body
and soared back down to the rooftop where she once stood.
It was so unreal. Time seemed to have slowed and yet everything happened so fast.
Kari blinked in disbelief. "Wha-What happened?"
"Are you all right?" a voice asked her, shocking her back out of her near-death
semi-traumatic state. It was then she realized she was being held in someone's arms. Kari
turned up towards where the voice had came from and looked up to see who her hero
was.
"Takeru?"
He carefully set her back to her feet and she stood before him stunned.
"Ta-Takeru.... I, uh," she was speechless.
"Kari!" a very happy Tai rushed up and embraced her with relief. "I was so
worried! I'm so glad you're safe!" Kari blinked surprised at her brother's sudden surge of
positive emotion.
"Uh yeah Tai, Takeru saved me." Kari explained.
"Takeru?" Tai asked. "Huh?" He then noticed the blonde boy standing behind her.
"What the?"
Matt, following Tai, walked up to the small crowd. "So, you saved Kari huh?" he
said to the tall boy. Takeru turned to him. Matt stood, totally drawn back to see his own
eyes looking back at him. 'Wh-Who is this guy?!'
Matt wondered shocked. An uneasy silence overcame the moment and Kari looked back
and forth between Matt's and Takeru's glances nervously.
"Uh, Tai, Matt, this is a boy I've meet from school, Takeru Takaishi." she
introduced, trying to break the tension. "Takeru this is my older brother, Taichi, or Tai for
short, and his best friend, Yamato Ishida. But we call him Matt." she said pointing to the
appropriate people.
"Nice to meet you both," Takeru said in his unexpressional way, bowing politely.
"KARI!" Patamon flew wobbly out of Matt's arms into Kari's. "I'm sorry I couldn't
help you Kari!" he said apologetically.
"Oh, Patamon. you did your best."
A slash flew across one side of Flymon's back and a roar of pain broke into the air.
They all turned startled to the screeching flying digimon. They all looked closely and
realized that one of its wings was gone. It staggered in the sky and struggled to stay in
flight with only one intensely flapping wing. But it couldn't hold itself. It fell onto the
rooftop with a rumbling crash. Amazingly enough, it rose, barely, to its feet. It roared in
agony and outrage to the sky, showing it wasn't about to surrender. The white blur sprang
from his back and seem to call out to Tai's and Matt's digimon.
"Attack Now!"
"If you say so," Agumon agreed confused. "PEPPER BREATH!"
"BLUE BLASTER!"
"BOOM BUBBLE!"
All the attacks hit dead on. The force was too great for the weak Flymon to handle
and it tumbled over the side of the rooftop and plummeted to the unkind streets below.
Everyone sighed in relief.
"Whew, I'm glad that was over.." Tai said, sinking back relieved.
"Yeah, I am too!" Tai's digimon said.
"Oh, great job uh, well, you're not Koromon are you?" Tai asked confused.
"Not exactly, I'm Agumon now. Your power helped me to digivolve from
Koromon Tai." he explained.
"Did that happen to you too, uh, well, the once Tsunomon?" Matt asked.
"Yep! I'm Gabumon now."
"Hmph, well, thanks for helping us Gabumon." Matt said grateful and slightly
amazed.
"It was my pleasure Matt!" Gabumon replied.
"By the way, what was that?" Matt asked curiously, looking around at them for
some possible answers.
"It was Flymon," Takeru replied. "It's an evil Digimon that was probably sent to
kill you three."
"Uh, yeah, we got that, but why?" Tai asked.
"How should I know?" Takeru said, looking away from them.
'Man, this kid's kinda rude,' Tai thought.
"Maybe, it's because someone wants you dead," an unrecognizable voice replied.
"Hm? What was that?" Kari asked, looking around.
A white cat Digimon soon appeared beside Takeru. It stood on two legs and had a
long black striped tail with a little golden ring at the end of it. It wore yellow,
black-striped gloves around it's front paws, with black claws extending from them. It's
face was cat-like and round with adorable wide light blue eyes and it had large cat ears
with black tuffs at the point.
"It's another Digimon," Kari said surprised.
"This is Gatomon." Takeru introduced.
"Oh," Kari knelt down to face it. "It's nice to meet you Gatomon, I'm Kari!" she
said with a friendly smile.
Gatomon only blinked at her for a few moments with no clear expression or
replying words.
"Uh," Seeing a discomfort from Gatomon, Kari rose up away from it. "Is it your
digimon Takeru?" Kari asked him.
"I am Takeru's digimon!" Gatomon interrupted fiercely. Kari turned to it surprised
at its sudden will to speak to her. "I'm more like his partner though." she corrected.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't know that. Hey, you were probably the one that attacked
Flymon to save me weren't you?"
"So what if I was?" Gatomon asked looking away from her.
"Hmph, thank you for helping me." Kari said gratefully.
Gatomon turned back to her, a little surprised. But within moments, she turned
away from Kari and stood with her back to her. "Yeah, well, you better not get caught
next time." she replied and walked off to the side of the roof to scan below.
"Gatomon isn't use to other people is she?" Kari suspected.
"Yes." Takeru replied. "She doesn't really warm up to people right away. Please
don't be offended."
"Oh, I'm not offended. I understand she's not really comfortable with others."
"Still, she could at least say you're welcome." Tai said crossly. 'Well, I guess the
partners share similar traits. Hey, wait a minute, how'd this kid get a digimon anyway?' Tai
wondered.
"Hey, Takeru right? Do you have one of these?" Tai asked showing him his
Digivice.
"Hm, actually, I received this from Gatomon." Takeru said revealing the exact D3
device Kari had, only in the areas where it was pink on hers, it was green on his.
"Weird. He has the same device as Kari's and a digimon, so I suppose that sort of
makes him like us." Tai deducted.
"But the real question is why did we get them?" Tai reminded. "Why is someone
trying to destroy us and why we received them is what I'm wondering about."
'Yeah, me too. Urgh, let's see, maybe it has to do with those dreams we keep
having.... But Kari, wait a minute, didn't that voice called for Kari too?' Matt realized. "It
has to do with our dreams," Matt said.
"What? What are you talking about Matt?" Tai asked.
"Our dreams! Maybe all this has to do with those dreams we keep having.
Remember, tonight a voice actually called out and warned us about Flymon."
"Wait a minute," Kari interrupted. "You heard that too?"
Tai and Matt both looked at her shocked.
"What?" Tai couldn't believe it. "Y-you have the dreams too..?"
This part actually has fighting, and if my writing on the battle is confusing or something I apologize. Good enough? Okay! On to part five!

Flight after flight of stairs passed under Kari's feet. "It's headed for the roof.." she

shadowy tops of the surrounding buildings, and the street lights shining from below.
"Maybe we missed it," Patamon suggested.
"BOMB STINGER!"
"What?" Like a flash, a rain of giant stingers flew down before her.
"Look out Kari!" Patamon suddenly pushed her aside before one of them struck
down on her.
"Uh, thanks Patamon," Kari said both grateful and shaken. "Where did that come
from?"
"I think it came from that dark creature we saw," Patamon assumed. A loud
buzzing hummed above them and Kari felt the air begin to stir around her.
"Ughh.." Kari shielded her face with her arm to protect from the push of the
violent winds coming down from above. She struggled against it look to the sky to see

"BOMB STINGER!" it yelled as it dove towards them. The stingers on its lower
body flew right at them. Kari leapt away from them before it shot down on her. Patamon
flew above the attack to hover right in front or Flymon.
"BOOM BUBBLE!" A gust of force suddenly flew out of his mouth and right
towards Flymon. It flew around the blast and flew with increasing speed towards
Patamon. He dodged away before Flymon crashed into him. He quickly turned around and
shot out another Boom Bubble at it from behind. The attack actually struck into Flymon's
back. It paused, stunned at first, but soon turned around towards Patamon.
"BOMB STINGER!" It shot out one of its stinger towards him. Patamon dodged
it, but wasn't ready for the second stinger it launched. He was struck back and began to
fall from the sky.
"Patamon!" Kari ran and caught him before he collided to the ground. "Patamon!
Patamon, are you all right?!" Kari cried out frantically to him.
"DIE!"
"Huh? AAH!" Another series of stingers flew towards her, fortunately, she quickly
leapt aside from the attack while huddling an unconscious Patamon in her arms.
"BUBBLE BLAST!" Suddenly a storm of pink bubbles flew into Flymon's head. It
cried out in pain from the surprise attack and drew back.
"Kari!" a familiar voice called.
"Tai! Matt!" Kari called back relieved. She rose to her the face her worried brother
and his best friend.
"Kari! Are you all right!?" Tai asked, gripping the sides of her shoulders in
concern.
"I-I'm fine, but Patamon.."
"Don't worry, he'll be fine." Tsunomon assured.
"Huh? You can talk too!?" Kari cried out shocked to the stuffed animal under
Matt's arm.
"Yep! Isn't that obvious?" he remarked.
"Agghhh..." Patamon moaned. Kari turned her attention back to him.
"Patamon!" Kari exclaimed with joy.
"Ka-Kari, are you all right?" he asked weakly.
"Oh Patamon, you were so brave!" she complimented.
"You really think so?"
"Uh-huh."
"BUBBLE BLAST!" Koromon sprayed out another storm of bubbles towards
Flymon. This time though, Flymon was ready. It zipped to the side away from the attack
and zoomed right towards it. Koromon was struck from its flying attack and rolled back
from the force.
"Koromon!" Tai quickly rushed to his digimon's aid. "Hey, little guy you all right?"
"Ugh, he's too strong for us. You have to make me stronger Tai," Koromon said,
struggling against the pain.
"I don't understand."
"BOMB STINGER!" A line of its stingers shot right up towards Matt and Kari.
They both leapt away in opposite directions from it. Dodging it, they both ended to the
ground, and Kari had accidentally let Patamon out of her arms.
"Patamon!"
"Kari! Look out!" Matt called out.
"What?" she turned to see a diving Flymon headed right towards her.
"AAAHHH!" With one swift motion, it snatched her up into its huge upper claws.
"Kari!" Tsunomon leapt out and was ready to attack the big insect, but Flymon
swiped him away with one of its other claws. Tsunomon rolled back before Matt.
"Tsunomon!"
It's wings began to pick up speed, and it shot into the air, taking Kari with it.
"Matt! Tai! Help me!" she cried out frightened.
Patamon shook out of his unconscious state to see Kari being taken away. "No!
Kari!" He flapped his batty ears and rose, struggling into the air after it. "I'll save you Kari!
BOOM BUBBLE!" Patamon shot out another of his attacks. He struck Flymon into the
back and it turned around agitated.
"BOMB STINGER!" Flymon launched a stinger at him and it struck into Patamon.
But he took the blow and stayed in air before him, unwilling to give up.
"BOOM BUBBLE!" Patamon fired another shot at Flymon. It dodged it and shot
another stinger into him. But, Patamon still refused to surrender to the blows.
"Patamon!" Kari cried out to him, trying to encourage him to stop taking so much
pain and suffering. But still, he hung on and remained to take Flymon's attacks. Even
though it looked as though that Patamon couldn't hold it for long.
"KAARIII!" Tai called out. 'Urgh! What can I do?! I have to help her!' he thought
to himself frustrated.
"Tai!" Tai quickly turned to the voice beside him. Koromon glared up at him with
determined eyes.
"You have to make me stronger... You can do it," he said sternly.
"Tsunomon.." Matt gently picked up the injured digimon.
"We have to help her Matt... Make me stronger, only you can do it..."
Tai and Matt looked at each other with confused glances. But Tai's expression
changed to a more serious expression. Matt watched him as he took the Digivice out of
his pocket. Matt did the same.
"If you can help my sister Koromon, then I believe in you!" Tai's digivice began to
glow and shake. Suddenly a burst of white light burst from its small screen into the dark
night sky and nearly blew him away.
Matt got the hint. "Ready Tsunomon?!" The same light shot from Matt's digivice
as well. The beams of light streamed up into the black sky and their glow escaped into the
clouds. But moments later, a white burst of light exploded above them. The night was
shed away by the illumination of an enormous portal that opened above them. Matt and
Tai struggled against the overwhelming force that seemed to try to pull them from the
very ground. Two colorful pillars of light blasted from the white wormhole and cast down
on Koromon and Tsunomon.
Flymon paused in his battle with Patamon and looked on to the new force that
caught his attention. 'What is that?' Kari asked herself as she blocked away the light from
her eyes with her hand. 'What's this power?'
"KOROMON DIGIVOLVE TO.....AGUMON!"
"TSUNOMON DIGIVOLVE TO....GABUMON!"
"Whoa," Tai and Matt looked wide-eyed at the two entirely different creatures that
were once Koromon and Tsunomon.
Koromon became a small, round orange T-rex looking dino with long claws on its
hands and feet. His big round eyes were now a light green color and he had a stubby tail.
Tsunomon had become a dog-looking creature that stood on its two legs. He wore
a gray, blue- striped fur coat over his head and it hung over its back and in the front of its
paws. The body under his fur coat was yellow with a blue and red pattern on its stomach.
A pointed golden horn came from the top of his head and his eyes were now a red color.
He also had a stubby tail.
"What the heck happened to Koromon and Tsunomon?!" Tai exclaimed breathless.
"GAH!" Patamon wasn't able to take any more damage from Flymon's attacks. He
fell back from the sky and fell back to the rooftop. Matt rushed over to him and picked
him up off the ground.
"Hey, are you all right Patamon?" Matt asked. But there was no response, but
Matt felt him still breathing.
"You did good Patamon."
"Now Gabumon!" the new Koromon called to the once Tsunomon creature.
"PEPPER BREATH!"
"BLUE BLASTER!"
A great fireball flew out of the orange dino's mouth and a beam of blue ice water
shot out of the fur-coated dog creature's mouth towards Flymon. But Flymon weaved
around the attacks and shot another row of Bomb Stingers towards them. They dodged
away from the attacks. Flymon took the opportunity to retreat with Kari.
"KAARRRIII!" Tai called.
"Tai! Matt!"
"Urgh! Shoot another of those fireballs at that thing!" Tai commanded towards his
Digimon.
"Wait Tai!" Matt interrupted.
"Matt! That thing's getting away with Kari!" Tai yelled back at him while pointing
to the escaping Flymon.
"If they attack Flymon they could hit Kari!" Matt reminded.
" Well, Patamon's too weak to go after her and he's the only one who can fly! So
what do you suppose we do huh?!"
Matt looked down from Tai's gaze. He was silent. There wasn't anything he could
think of to save Kari.
"Urgh, KARRIII!!" Tai called out in frustration.
"Urgh! Let me go!" Kari demanded. "Where are you taking me?!"
"To my master," he replied in a buzzing, scratchy voice.
"Your master? What do they want with with me?!"
"Your destruction."
Kari was silent with shock. She looked around hopelessly. She stared back to see a
helpless, frightened Tai and Matt. "Someone help me!!" she cried out.
"LIGHTNING PAW!"
A white blur bursted out from nowhere and collided into the side of Flymon's head.
Kari suddenly flew out Flymon's grasp into the empty night air.
"AAAAHHHH!!" she screamed. She began to feel the pull towards the ground
begin. Everything just stopped and became silent. The air began to rush past her body and
the buildings' forms soon blurred beyond sight. Kari closed her eyes tightly, trying not to
face her own doom.
But everything was suddenly swept away. "Huh?" A dark figure had jumped from
another rooftop and caught her from the air. They parried off the stumbling Flymon's body
and soared back down to the rooftop where she once stood.
It was so unreal. Time seemed to have slowed and yet everything happened so fast.
Kari blinked in disbelief. "Wha-What happened?"
"Are you all right?" a voice asked her, shocking her back out of her near-death
semi-traumatic state. It was then she realized she was being held in someone's arms. Kari
turned up towards where the voice had came from and looked up to see who her hero
was.
"Takeru?"
He carefully set her back to her feet and she stood before him stunned.
"Ta-Takeru.... I, uh," she was speechless.
"Kari!" a very happy Tai rushed up and embraced her with relief. "I was so
worried! I'm so glad you're safe!" Kari blinked surprised at her brother's sudden surge of
positive emotion.
"Uh yeah Tai, Takeru saved me." Kari explained.
"Takeru?" Tai asked. "Huh?" He then noticed the blonde boy standing behind her.
"What the?"
Matt, following Tai, walked up to the small crowd. "So, you saved Kari huh?" he
said to the tall boy. Takeru turned to him. Matt stood, totally drawn back to see his own
eyes looking back at him. 'Wh-Who is this guy?!'
Matt wondered shocked. An uneasy silence overcame the moment and Kari looked back
and forth between Matt's and Takeru's glances nervously.
"Uh, Tai, Matt, this is a boy I've meet from school, Takeru Takaishi." she
introduced, trying to break the tension. "Takeru this is my older brother, Taichi, or Tai for
short, and his best friend, Yamato Ishida. But we call him Matt." she said pointing to the
appropriate people.
"Nice to meet you both," Takeru said in his unexpressional way, bowing politely.
"KARI!" Patamon flew wobbly out of Matt's arms into Kari's. "I'm sorry I couldn't
help you Kari!" he said apologetically.
"Oh, Patamon. you did your best."
A slash flew across one side of Flymon's back and a roar of pain broke into the air.
They all turned startled to the screeching flying digimon. They all looked closely and
realized that one of its wings was gone. It staggered in the sky and struggled to stay in
flight with only one intensely flapping wing. But it couldn't hold itself. It fell onto the
rooftop with a rumbling crash. Amazingly enough, it rose, barely, to its feet. It roared in
agony and outrage to the sky, showing it wasn't about to surrender. The white blur sprang
from his back and seem to call out to Tai's and Matt's digimon.
"Attack Now!"
"If you say so," Agumon agreed confused. "PEPPER BREATH!"
"BLUE BLASTER!"
"BOOM BUBBLE!"
All the attacks hit dead on. The force was too great for the weak Flymon to handle
and it tumbled over the side of the rooftop and plummeted to the unkind streets below.
Everyone sighed in relief.
"Whew, I'm glad that was over.." Tai said, sinking back relieved.
"Yeah, I am too!" Tai's digimon said.
"Oh, great job uh, well, you're not Koromon are you?" Tai asked confused.
"Not exactly, I'm Agumon now. Your power helped me to digivolve from
Koromon Tai." he explained.
"Did that happen to you too, uh, well, the once Tsunomon?" Matt asked.
"Yep! I'm Gabumon now."
"Hmph, well, thanks for helping us Gabumon." Matt said grateful and slightly
amazed.
"It was my pleasure Matt!" Gabumon replied.
"By the way, what was that?" Matt asked curiously, looking around at them for
some possible answers.
"It was Flymon," Takeru replied. "It's an evil Digimon that was probably sent to
kill you three."
"Uh, yeah, we got that, but why?" Tai asked.
"How should I know?" Takeru said, looking away from them.
'Man, this kid's kinda rude,' Tai thought.
"Maybe, it's because someone wants you dead," an unrecognizable voice replied.
"Hm? What was that?" Kari asked, looking around.
A white cat Digimon soon appeared beside Takeru. It stood on two legs and had a
long black striped tail with a little golden ring at the end of it. It wore yellow,
black-striped gloves around it's front paws, with black claws extending from them. It's
face was cat-like and round with adorable wide light blue eyes and it had large cat ears
with black tuffs at the point.
"It's another Digimon," Kari said surprised.
"This is Gatomon." Takeru introduced.
"Oh," Kari knelt down to face it. "It's nice to meet you Gatomon, I'm Kari!" she
said with a friendly smile.
Gatomon only blinked at her for a few moments with no clear expression or
replying words.
"Uh," Seeing a discomfort from Gatomon, Kari rose up away from it. "Is it your
digimon Takeru?" Kari asked him.
"I am Takeru's digimon!" Gatomon interrupted fiercely. Kari turned to it surprised
at its sudden will to speak to her. "I'm more like his partner though." she corrected.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't know that. Hey, you were probably the one that attacked
Flymon to save me weren't you?"
"So what if I was?" Gatomon asked looking away from her.
"Hmph, thank you for helping me." Kari said gratefully.
Gatomon turned back to her, a little surprised. But within moments, she turned
away from Kari and stood with her back to her. "Yeah, well, you better not get caught
next time." she replied and walked off to the side of the roof to scan below.
"Gatomon isn't use to other people is she?" Kari suspected.
"Yes." Takeru replied. "She doesn't really warm up to people right away. Please
don't be offended."
"Oh, I'm not offended. I understand she's not really comfortable with others."
"Still, she could at least say you're welcome." Tai said crossly. 'Well, I guess the
partners share similar traits. Hey, wait a minute, how'd this kid get a digimon anyway?' Tai
wondered.
"Hey, Takeru right? Do you have one of these?" Tai asked showing him his
Digivice.
"Hm, actually, I received this from Gatomon." Takeru said revealing the exact D3
device Kari had, only in the areas where it was pink on hers, it was green on his.
"Weird. He has the same device as Kari's and a digimon, so I suppose that sort of
makes him like us." Tai deducted.
"But the real question is why did we get them?" Tai reminded. "Why is someone
trying to destroy us and why we received them is what I'm wondering about."
'Yeah, me too. Urgh, let's see, maybe it has to do with those dreams we keep
having.... But Kari, wait a minute, didn't that voice called for Kari too?' Matt realized. "It
has to do with our dreams," Matt said.
"What? What are you talking about Matt?" Tai asked.
"Our dreams! Maybe all this has to do with those dreams we keep having.
Remember, tonight a voice actually called out and warned us about Flymon."
"Wait a minute," Kari interrupted. "You heard that too?"
Tai and Matt both looked at her shocked.
"What?" Tai couldn't believe it. "Y-you have the dreams too..?"
