*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~* JS: This Chapter like all others are focused mainly on Takato. Should be perfect for Rika.

Jerry: Why don't you write a story about Henry as the main character? Henry can be better than Takato.

Henry: Now, now my sweet Jerry, let Takato be the most important one here. I'm tired of all the publicity.

Jerry: (Shouts) What! How dare you Henry! How could you be tired of all you fans?

Henry: I know your just doing what you think is right for me, but it's enough.

Rika: Sheesh, lovers.

JS: Just like you and Takato right.

Rika: Shut up.

Chapter 3: Takato's Secret Unearthed

Takato quickly turned to the source of the sound. Jerry stood there staring frighteningly at Takato. "Jerry, what are you doing there?" questioned Takato.

"I came to tell you how good I am in the Digimon Card Game," replied Jerry weakly.

"What did you see? You didn't notice anything weird did you? Tell me the truth."

"I saw you moving the clock hands backwards, then forward. W-w-what were you doing?"

"Jerry, I'll tell you the truth. What you saw was me moving time backwards."

"How could you do that? Why didn't you tell either me or the rest of the Tamers about your powers? What are you going to do with that power?"

"I got the ability to change time when I was battling against the D-Reaper. I think it must have been some kind of side effect of going inside the D- Reaper. I didn't even realize I had that power until after the battle, but I also remember using it to slow the D-Reaper from fully emerging. I didn't tell the rest of the Tamers because I didn't want anyone to know. I'm going to use my "abilities" to stop time so the Tamers can go to the Digital World."

"Have you ever try using it after defeating the D-Reaper? If you had what was it?"

"Sure, I used my powers after that battle. I've used it mainly for when I'm taking a test."

"But isn't that called cheating? Won't you get into a lot of trouble if someone catches you?"

"It's not really called cheating if you just make some extra time for yourself to study. Since it's not cheating how I would I get in trouble. Ok, now don't ask anymore questions, you're starting to sound like our teacher."

"Oh, ok. I'm going to tell Henry and Rika so they would know that we could go to the Digital World. Bye" Jerry leaves Takato's house."

Hmm, that was unexpected. Can't believe that foolish little girl nearly ruined my plans. She actually believed that I would even use my powers for something as stupid as a test. I better do something about that girl; she's always getting in the way. I better do what I must do fast before the Hero of Light awakes. From the time, I see that I only have 5 more chances, thought Takato.

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~* JS: Hmm, why is Takato acting so evil? What does he mean the Hero of Light? What does he mean 5 more chances? How is he going to take "care" of Jerry? May it be death or may it be worse. *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~*
