Yeah I know. I've been gone for months. But hey I'm still planning to continue this story. I only ask that you review and give me inspiration.

Dedication to Sailor Bree.

And by the way, I can't use italics so /./ will represent thoughts.

She walked for days before she met the base of the spiral of death. She felt bad for leaving Matt behind but she had to. He couldn't get mixed up with the prophecy. She could see the tower at the top of the spiraled mountain. She had no choice but to climb the steep, treacherous slopes.

The digidestined were walking when they saw a bird-like digimon carrying a message. When it dropped the paper, it flew away. Yolei picked it up and read it aloud.

"You mustn't leave the girl unattended. She is heading towards the spiral of death. It is a mountain shaped like a sharp spike. You will need supplies to climb and if you fall you'll fall to your death. She has the best equipment to climb up the mountain. Another thing you should know, the digi portal has closed and it will not open. Ileana has the key. If you reach her in time you'll both profit."

"Is he serious!?" Mimi exclaimed, "She deserted us."

"If Genai tells us we have to then we have to." Palmon said

"Fine. It's settled. Let's go." Tai said.

The group followed him and soon, the mountain became visible in the distance.

She picked up the pickaxe and the rope and put it in its place. She then took out a harness and put it on while attaching the rope. She took out some grip shoes and put them on and secured the backpack. Then, with a chisel in hand, she began her ascent.

Ileana was an avid climber. The base of the mountain wasn't bad but as she rose in height the slopes became steeper and steeper. She had been doing this for the past few years though so, being used to it, she increased on her incline.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * /Child, with more patience you could have had this easier/ the dragon thought /however if you feel this is what you must do, I have no choice./ and with that he began to descend.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

With the chisel, she once again hacked it into the rocky slope and pulled herself up. She knew now that if the dragon joined with someone, that person could be lost forever. She feared for the safety of everyone.

Matt felt a sudden coldness run throughout his body. He knew something was coming. The others sensed it too.

Mimi looked around. She had suddenly begun to feel light headed and dizzy. The dirt in the ground had gotten darker. It was almost black. They were near.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Ileana had sensed them. They were nearer to the base. If they tried to climb up, they would surely die. She sighed and a moment after, she began to rappel down the spiral.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Davis noticed her first.

"There she is!" he yelled and pointed excitedly.

Gabumon looked up. Something wasn't right. This place was even darker than usual. He didn't know what was going on but it was bad.

The digidestined were suddenly all blinded by a dark light. It was white yet black and bright yet dark. It wasn't right. Nothing was right. What they didn't know was that it took Ileana with them and left their digimon behind.

The dragon liked to play around a bit first. To see who would make a better host. Kari was in danger, especially if the dragon could overcome her power, light. Which he probably could. To be deprived of light was asking for death himself.who was going to arrive soon anyway.

Zephelia: OK short chapter I know. It may have seemed as if I died but I'm back now. Expect next update in two to three months. (I don't know if I'm joking or not.
