Herm... ok, ok, ok... I know I shouldn't have given Serpentmon free rain
with that last disclaimer... Now I've got to put up TWO! *grumbles things
about stupid digital garter snakes*
Ok I do NOT own digimon nor do I own the song All the Gold in California, or much of anything else for that matter, despite what Travis' partner put down in the last chapter.
I think he was just trying to get back at me for not having him IN the last chapter, its all good now though. I got him to go back in the 'puter, at lest I hope I did, Travis is a bit bigger then I am and I don't really want to get bonked by that shield...
Thanks for the reviews. I've taken most of them too heart and I've tried... I really have its just hard for me, stupid learning difference... I'm glad that someone thinks this is one of the better ficks out there, (you have no idea how much of an ego boost that is!) but there are a lot of very good ones that put this little story o'mine to shame. But as long as I'm keeping at lest one person entertained I'm happy.

Chapter 5.
The deep blue eyes that had been starting so intently into his own suddenly flew back as in a blur of orange and white, as it too screamed right back at him.
"DON'T DO THAT!" the young man screamed at the small digimon as his brain finally started working once again. "Are you TRYING to give me a heart attack?!?" the teen took a look around as the digimon responded with a rather indignant "no".
He noted that he was in a dungeon of some sort, his crest was on a table in the far corner as was his D-3. The table and the corner where both, unfortunately, on the other side of some rather strong looking bars... it was then that he noticed both the fact that he was shackled to the wall and that his cell mate had somehow managed to slip from his own bonds.

Tai had regained his composure, the leader once again, with almost no trace of his brake down left visible. He starred out at the digital world, a world that he had lived in and saved on numerous occasions in his life, but one he never truly understood.
He thought back to the days after their return after killing Myotismon for the secant time, and after their first introduction to the Dark Masters. He remembered Mat's leaving, his need to 'find himself' and he decided that he needed to do that himself.
The girl from the fog haunted him, Sora was lost to him now, any hope he had still within him had been shattered by her immediate running to Mat. He had lost her and whether it was because he was an idiot who should have told her the truth about how he felt long ago or weather she never felt the same about him in the first place was immaterial now.
He had to leave.
To get away from her, away from him. And away from all his failures over the years. He wasn't needed anymore. The destined had Lock and as such a leader. Davis could do it too, as could TK...
"TK... Take care of her for me. I'm going to be gone for a little bit. There is something I need to do, I need to see, on my own. Don't fallow me and don't worry. Travis will keep everyone together as long as he has you to help him out. Don't let me down." Tai then took a deep breath and turned to look at the younger brother of his rival and best friend. The boys young face showed both fear and determination and Tai knew the arguments before they even came.
"What do you mean 'on your own'? You can't leave us Tai! You remember what happened last time you left us!"
The words stung even though he knew they were coming. After he had left the DD's had disintegrated as a team. But something else had happened, something that TK always overlooked.
"Yes every bodies crest activated."
TK looked shocked. It was all Tai could do to hold his laughter in when the younger distend was standing there with such a perplexed look on his face.
"You never Thought of that did you, TK?" it was more of a statement then a question. "The crests were activated alone. Mine, Mat's, Sora's. Even yours and Kari's were activated alone TK."
Tai then sighed before glancing back over his shoulder at the blue-eyed boy. "I think this is going to be the same type of thing. We are going to get stronger and as such we are going to be forced on our own once again." and with that the barrier of the crest of courage started to walk off.
TK watched him go, as Agumon suddenly seemed to materialize at Tai's side. The holder of hope saw a flash of pink as Biyomon walked off, crying and didn't quite know how to take that, he had thought that she and Gabumon were together. And then he heard his name being yelled.
Turning the blond-haired boy was almost knocked off his feet as the angel of light ran into him and pulled him into a fierce embrace.

Gatomon walked from the impromptu powwow the digimon had held after the fog. All had been there except for serpentmon. And that had suited her just fine.
Gatomon wasn't quite sure how to react to the snake being on her side. He had been, as Balormon, a constant thorn in Myotismon's side for as long as she could remember. And on more then one occasion a loss to him as resulted in a beating. But he hadn't been the focus of there conference.
His partner had been.
Travis Lock, the first digidistend. The legends surrounding him were astounding. It was said that he cheated death itself to save the digital world. He had powers that only she had seen, powers that the others needed to know.
Kari could charge one digimon to a high power level for a short period of time, as shown when WarGraymon killed MachineDramon. The legends surrounding the crest of hope make it seem as if TK should be able to support multiple digimon at one time, but only be able to digivolve one himself. Faith though... faith can rase an army.
Myotismon's army has suffered setback after setback as a other army, one led by a unbelievably powerful champion, had attacked constantly. Large masses of champion level digimon with even more rookie level backup had done hit and fades keeping her 'lord and master's' attention away from the chosen children until after Etemon had been killed.
Even then Myotismon had only been able to spare an idiot to try and keep their crests from glowing. An idiot that not only failed in his mission. But acutely managed to help them too glow.
All thanks to Travis.
Tentomon had found it amusing that Faith had kept a vampire at bay and light had destroyed it. He clamed it was very similar to legends in the real world. Gatomon didn't know what to think. He was an ally now, but in the past he had tried to destroy her.
She had faced him once in battle, and had screamed in agony as his "perdition's flame" attack had engulfed her small body the damage had been so grate that she had been forced back to Salamon because of it. As a rookie she had stared him down has his clawed hand was rapped around her.
She had stared into those blood red orbs and seen her death, and she had embraced it. Anything to get away from Myotismon... only for him to demand why she wasn't a BlackGatomon in her champion form.
To this day she still doesn't know what she responded with, but whatever it was she got to live past his attack, only to receive the x slash on her right paw to go with the one on her left. Such was the compassion of Myotismon.
Lost in her thoughts she nearly tripped over the unconscious form of the very digimon she had just been thinking about. Leaning down to pick the small snake up, she heard Patamon call for her, saying he had found both TK's and Travis' hats. Taking the snake digimon over towards his voice she found the hats alright, but no Patamon...
Grabbing them both she bolted towards Kari's presence hopping she was alright.
