To the reviewers: Thankies! Here are some responses to them.

AnT: I probably won't make them fall in luv! I believe in the phrase "opposites attract" and these two act alike, right? They might become good friends, but that's it.

Anthony: happy late b-day then! ^_^

Yukari: I didn't notice that… actually, I matched the personalities up. Ditz acts like Tai, Nicole will act like Izzy, you know. My reviewers know more about the story than me! ^^;;;!

Burntstar: I know… took forever? *sigh*^^ I've had so much stuff to do. In Language Arts I've had 3 projects due in one week! (I HATE THAT WOMAN! Heh, heh) Well, I started on the third chapter, but it's a hard one to write. It has to have A LOT of detail, so it may take longer.

Gatochu: Yeah! You made my story smile! (LOL! I tell you, no sane person, I tell ya…) I luv the review. Brightened my day, seriously. Steven saw it and thinks we're both crazy! Who? Us? Never! And thanks for helping with that one part of this chap.

Cherry: Thank you SO much for the title! I luv it! *Huggles the title* Like I said to Gatochu/Nicole, no sane person…

Courage and Knowledge Teamed

A red haired boy ferociously typed at his computer. Another boy showed off in front of two girls. The blondes giggled.

"Tai, stop flirting and get over here" Izzy snapped.

"Tai stop flirting and get over here" Tai mimicked as he strolled over the gray asphalt and slipped onto a beige bench that circled a table. An umbrella covered it. "Find anything?"

"No… wait… Finally!" Izzy yelped in excitement.

"What is it?" the Ditz and Nicole asked. Ditz took a sip of a 7-Up she had gotten from a vending machine. They were at an outdoor café, still at Fuchsia City.

"You've got mail" the screen chimed. Each kid raised an eyebrow. Tai groaned and hit his head on the table.

"Izzy!" they chorused.

"Not that" Izzy muttered.

"Sure…" the pre-teens shook their heads.

"Oh crap" Izzy muttered. "Tai, I've been going through some old files and doing some math, each day here is a half day in the real world… it's been two days there"

"And that's bad because…" Nicole raised an eyebrow.

"We need to save the world," Tai answered.

"Oh ya. Superheros" the two girls snickered. "Don't worry. We'll find your friends"

"It… won't be that easy" Izzy ruffled his hair.

"Why not?" Tai questioned.

"Well, our digivices won't react with the others in this world. Our only hope are… heh… these two" he pointed over to Ditz and Nicole.

"How do ya figure?" Tai furrowed his brow.

"Well, for one they can help look. That's twice the chance we'll see someone. Plus… they also know our little secret… and we need to keep the secret. There might be spies," Izzy quietly said. "We're going to have to bring them"

"Sorry guys, but we're Poke masters in training. We're kind of busy" Ditz interrupted the conversation.

"You have to come" Izzy turned back to his laptop. The blonde girls shook their heads.

"We've worked all year for Indigo, we're not going to blow it off"

"How many more badges do you need?" Izzy asked. Ditz had 2 more; Nicole had 1.

"Then we'll pick them up as we go along… and anyway, Indigo is two months away" the burgundy haired boy did not take his eyes off the computer.

"But we want to get there early! Ash is going to be there…" Nicole said dreamily.

"And Richie" Ditz sighed.

"And Gary Oak!" They both screamed.

"Those two are really starting to scare me…" Tai shook his head.

"You're coming and that's that!" Izzy interrupted the two girls' daydreams.

"Izzy, you're no fun" Nicole crossed her arms and fell into a seat next to Tai.

~*~*~~*

"Myotismon won't be happy about this" a figure commented. The shadows covered their face.

"When is he happy?" another sighed.

"Very true…" a third trailed off. The fourth walked swiftly ahead and jumped up. It grasped a bar and forced it down. A ladder from an old fire escape screeched to the ground. They all jumped up onto the rusted structure and started climbing. In the pitch-black night, it was almost impossible to see, but these shadowy images were, strangely, able to see in the dark. They swiftly pulled themselves onto the roof. The group headed towards a door that led to stairs. This old building used to be the old Pokemon center, Officer Jenny had convinced the mayor to condemned it… a lot of daring teens were getting hurt in it.

The light above the door illuminated their faces. Two were boy humans, two were girls. The girl in front seemed to be the leader. She had dark brown hair that curled at the bottom, her shoulders. Her face was pale, somewhat ghostly. The person behind her was a tall boy. He had light red hair and freckles dotted his also pale face. The last two looked alike though. They both had long black hair (the boy had his in a ponytail) and darker skin. They were about the same height. Each child walked with a suave stride and wore the same attire. All black leather suits. 

The first girl struggled to open the heavy metal door. She led the others inside.

"Anna, what should we do?" the boy asked in a monotone voice.

"Contact the Master. He has to know courage and knowledge have found each other," the auburn hair answered. "That's a dangerous match"

"Right" the twins agreed. Anna slipped her hand onto the rail and jumped down a story. She landed on her feet and look up. She was fine; she seemed supernatural. The others did the same and landed next to her. They steadily walked down the dark hall and stopped in front of a door. They pressed their hands against it. It slowly creaked open, as if it was resisting. The room was filled with large electronics; a large screen reached from the floor to the ceiling. They all ran over to a keyboard and started typing. Suddenly a voice boomed and echoed around the room.

"What?!"

"Myotismon" they said in unison. The once blank screen showed a vampire. A cruel smile spread across his red lips.

"Aw, children. Why do you call?"

"Myotismon… sir" the black haired girl stepped up.

"What's your name?"

"Lily Mitchell, sir" she bowed her head. "We summoned you because we have some news on Courage and Knowledge" The vampire cocked an eyebrow.

"Yes?"

"Jason Mitchell, sir" the ebony haired boy introduced himself. "They found each other. Knowledge was using his computer too" Myotismon's eyes widened.

"Did they find the prophecy?"

"No sir… Kyle Peters" the redhead bowed. "We have started on shutting down the Internet"

"Good. Make sure it works!" the screen boomed.

"Yes sir" the children chorused. The screen then went blank. The children scattered across the room, running from one computer to another. Their plan had to go as well as possible in order to please their master… their controller.

~*~*~*~

Tai woke with a start. He looked around, startled. A owl called in the distance. The cliff beside him magnified the sound. He wiped sweat away from his face. He then saw something move. His chocolate eyes darted to the end of the lake. A figure sat on a medium sized rock. It was lit up by the moon. Something glinted around their neck.

"Ditz?" Tai slowly stood up and wandered across the lake. Ditz had this locket she wore around her neck that usually was hidden under her. He reached her and silently stood there. She was looking at the clear water of the lake. Even at 3 in the morning, he could see the spotted pebbles at the bottom. "Ditz?" he repeated. She girl looked up.

"Hi" she faintly smiled.

"What're you doing up?" he questioned.

"I should ask you the same" She raised an eyebrow.

"I asked you first"

"Well, I had a nightmare" she informed him.

"Oh… I heard an owl" he realized how stupid it sounded. She quietly laughed. Ditz gazed across the lake at the pair on the other side. They quietly slept, oblivious to the world. Tai sat down, his back to her. She leaned hers against his and the back of their heads touched.

"Aren't you scared" the blonde asked.

"Of what?" Tai gazed sadly at a pine tree. It seemed to touch the clouds that blocked the moon. It was almost pitch black. He figured his chocolate colored eyes must have adjusted.

"I dunno. I still don't believe this whole Digidestined thing, but what if it's real… and you don't get to your world in time? The fate of it rests in your guys' hands"

"I guess it's a little freaky" he shrugged, trying to hide what he really thought. The truth was, he was scared to death. A shiver tingling wind came and sent shivers through both eleven-year-olds. Just then, Izzy's digivice started beeping. It was muffled though; his bag was tossed under all the others. Nicole muttered something in her sleep. Tai sighed and shook his right shoulder, making sure the girl with him was awake.

"Hm?" She faintly made a sound.

"Just makin sure I ain't the only one awake" he muttered. After a few moments of complete silence, Tai decided it was time to go to sleep. He didn't get up though. His body felt to heavy. Instead, he let his eyes droop. He was asleep in seconds.

----

"Stupid Internet modem!" Izzy screamed. He hit the side of his laptop and slammed it shut.

"Calm down" Nicole said.

"Calm down?! CALM" DOWN?!" Izzy continued.

"That's what she said" Ditz looked over the other's shoulder and read the prices of clothes. "Alloy" the magazine cover read.

"30 dollars for a bikini top? They gotta be kidding!" Tai exclaimed. The two girls giggled. "What?"

"Nothing Jack" Ditz continued giggling. The children had reached a small city fifty miles outside Fuchsia City. Rubble Village. It was a quaint little city somewhat hidden in the mountains. The girls had stocked up on fashion magazines, Izzy had rushed into the library to get onto the Internet (which hadn't been working, like Myotismon hoped) and Tai had gone down to the small park.

"Girls" Tai rolled his eyes. Just then, blackness covered their eyes. They tried screaming, but couldn't. Something had silenced them. They were lifted from their seats and carried down the nearby ally. The few people in the area took no notice.

That was just under four pages. Sorry it was so short. Also, I'm going to leave you hanging and move onto another character. You'll just have to know they were kidnapped.  Huh… wonder if I should make them live…
