"So you're saying the Digimon are made up of data, and that the Digital World is made up of the same data that Digimon are made of?"
Gennai nodded calmly. "Correct."
Takeru whistled softly. "Weird."
Miyako nodded, frowning. "So those things we saw fighting where Digimon. Did you say the blue one was Daisuke's partner Digimon?"
Again, Gennai nodded. "That was Exveemon, the Champion level of Veemon."
From her pink and green flowered cushion, Sora blinked. "I thought you said that Digimon where creatures. Exveemon, or whoever he was, looked almost human."
"That would be because of the virus." Gennai explained, sipping at his tea. "Somehow the virus found a way to transform the Digimon's shapes. He's shifted them into a state called Gijinka, and while Digimon can still survive and exist in Gijinka form, it takes more energy to Digivolve, and while the Digimon where struggling with their new forms, it became easer for the virus to take over. Of course now the Digimon have become more accustom to their current shape, but we still can't find a way to change them back."
As the group mulled over the truckload of information Gennai had given them in the past fifteen minutes, the elderly man poured himself another cup of tea. Most of the other cups where still sitting untouched on the table.
"Anything else?" Gennai looked around expectantly, but no one answered the question. The old man smiled slightly, before putting down his tea cup and climbing to his feet.
"Well, you all must be exhausted. Being downloaded for the first time after so long. Come, there are some rooms you can use. When you wake up, you can have something to eat and then we'll go from there."
Iori yawned in the middle of what Gennai had been saying, and then blushed scarlet as several people turned to look at him. Takeru grinned at the younger boy as they all followed Gennai over to, what appeared to be, a solid wall.
"Right this way please." Gennai said, and to everyone's astonishment, he walked straight through the wall. It ripped as he went through, like when you throw a rock into a pond. As they stood gaping, Gennai's head reappeared.
"Well, are you coming or not?" The head vanished, and after exchanging glances, Taichi stepped forward and through the wall.
"This is where you will be sleeping." Takeru was nearly knocked over by Yamato, who had just come through the hidden door behind him. Gennai flicked on a light switch and illuminated the room in an orange glow, coming from the orb hanging a few feet from the ceiling. The room was large, obviously built to fit a lot of people. Twelve beds sat in need rows on either side of a long carpet, each freshly made with clean sheets and fluffed pillows.
"There's a bathroom at the end of the room and you'll find some pajamas under the pillows. If you'll excuse me I have to go discuss something with Daisuke. Goodnight!"

"Daisuke, there you are! How are things coming?" Daisuke shook his head quietly.
"Not good. We think we've located Michael and some of the other American Chosen, but now we're not sure if it's a real signal."
The two walked slowly along one of the winding passages of the base. Every now and then a Digimon or two would pass them, nodding respectfully to Gennai and giving Daisuke and encouraging smile.
"And the partner Digimon? How are they taking this?"
Daisuke winced, and Gennai felt his hopes fade a little. It came as no surprise really, but he had still hoped that they might pull through somehow.
"I'm really concerned about Patamon. He's not taking it well at all. It was his birthday, you know. The day this whole thing started."
Gennai smiled a little. "I remember when the Digimon decided they wanted birthdays." He chuckled at the memory. "Twelve months for twelve overenthusiastic Digimon."
Daisuke smiled a little before continuing. "There have been two more Harbinger sightings. One at the west end of the base, one at the south. The one at the west was an Airdramon, but we're not sure what was seen at the south end. It was to far away to tell what it was, but we got a positive for Tag activity, and judging from the readings it might have been an Ultimate."
Gennai frowned and stopped walking. The two companions had reached an intersection where two different corridors crossed, creating four different paths to follow.
"Take Veemon and a small team out. I want to know what type of Digimon that is and what it's doing at the south end. No contact. Don't get near enough for it to see you, just enough to get a clear reading."
Daisuke gave a sharp nod and darted off down the right path. Gennai stood for a moment, watching him go, before turning left and leaving the intersection of paths empty and silent.

A/N: Wow. Another chapter. And guess what! Nothing happens! Yeah, well there should be some better explanations soon. Maybe. I also made a new discovery. I can't write! I just pretend I can. Yep. Although sometimes it's fun to pretend that I'm a pretty good author, for a fourteen-year-old.
We're going to Florida tomorrow. If I write another chapter between now and then, someone can shot me.
I also want to mention my total shock at not getting flamed yet. My story isn't exactly the greatest thing since sliced bread. But hey, I'm not complaining! Enjoy!
