Escape By Henrika

Sakuyamon-Now that we got rid of the annoying lawyermon, we have to do the disclaimer. Henrika does not own digimon. It is just that simple.

Henrika- Hi everyone. I didn't realize the last chapter was so short, sorry. Then it was Spring Break and I went on a trip. Then I was just busy. Now I'm back and here is the next chapter. Read and Review. Oh, I added Rurouni Kenshin to my list of animes that I'm basically hooked on.

I Love Jenrya- Yep. 44 was enough.

Solar Kitty- It's funny. At the start of the series they called the teacher Miss. Asagi, but then at the end it was Miss. Nami. You decide. Oh and thanks for your review on my other story. Sorry about the first chapter. I never fixed the paragraph thing on it.

Killer Mayhem-Ahhh! Don't hurt me. Here's the chapter!

Midnight Loner-Read my comments at the end.

gochikku_tenshi_e_hikari- I couldn't find your fics. Log in when you review so I can go through the links.

littleweirdwriter-New chapter. Woohoo. I tried to make it a little longer, but I think it is still short.

anonymous-Glad you liked it.

Takako- Sorry, no Henrika in this chapter either. Read comments at end.
Chapter 7

"Do you think Henry is here?" Jeri asked as the bubble popped.

"Uh." Takato said, as he looked a bit sheepish. After all, he had brought them here, and he didn't have a clue as to where Henry might be.

"Hey! Why don't we split up and look for him here!" Kazu and Kenta said.

Rika looked positively ecstatic as she spoke. "You two actually have good ideas."

The pair looked at each other, then at Rika, and said in unison, "Can it Rika!"

The group laughed at that. It had been a running joke between Rika, Kazu, and Kenta ever since they came up with the idea to have Suzie and Jeri stay with them while the other tamers confronted the sovereign.

Rika's smile dropped though, when she remembered what had happened before that. Henry had lost it, and for a second, he was no longer the calm pacifist. He had hit Suzie and that had scared them all.

"Alright. Jeri, Terriermon, Guilmon, and I will go down this way." Takato said as he pointed down a hallway.

"Guardromon, Kenta, Marine Angemon, and I will go this way." Kazu said as he pointed down a different corridor.

"Rika, Cyberdramon."Ryo started, but Rika cut him off.

"Renamon and I will be going this way." Rika pointed. "You can look over there Ryo." She said as she pointed in the opposite direction.

"Oook." Takato said. "Let's go."

The groups moved off in four directions. ************

Rika was still fuming about Ryo and Renamon was giving her her space. Rika had been walking for a while when she suddenly noticed that she couldn't hear Renamon padding along behind her. She whipped around and confirmed her fear. Renamon wasn't there. "Renamon!" Rika's voice echoed down the hall. Rika ran back in the direction she had come. She was confronted by a huge door with no handle. (Henrika- Sound familiar?)

"Renamon!" Rika screamed repeatedly as she pounded the door with her fists, trying to break through. It was useless. Rika looked around to see if she could find anything to break down the door with. The hallway was dark, so she was able to see a small sliver of light coming from the end of the corridor. She walked to the end and peeked through the crack, gasping at what she saw on the other side.

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

On the other side of the door, Renamon was becoming frantic. A large door at separated her from Rika. It had appeared out of thin air and Renamon couldn't even scratch it with her claws. "Diamond Storm!" She launched an attack. The digital diamonds struck the door and glinted before they were smashed into oblivion.

"Rika!" Renamon shouted, her voice coming back over and over again. 'I have to find the others' Renamon thought as she raced up the hall. "Takato!" She shouted as she raced down the direction his group had went, her voice going down all the passageways.

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

"I hear Renamon." Terriermon said as his ears perked up.

"And I can smell her." Guilmon added. A few seconds later, Takato and Jeri heard the normally silent kitsune racing down the hall.

"Renamon, what happened?" Takato asked.

"Where's Rika?" Jeri said as she looked behind the digimon.

"I.don't.know." Renamon panted. "She was just ahead of me one moment, then the next there was a door I couldn't break. You have to help me."

"Lead the way!" Takato shouted as they turned around and followed the fox digimon.

A mad dash up the hall ensued, leading the group to where they had started in the first place. To their surprise, the others were already there. "Dude, what happened?" Kazu said as the others approached.

"Yeah, we heard Renamon scream." Kenta chimed in.

"What happened?" Ryo said, finally getting to the point.

"Rika is missing. We need to go find her." Takato said as they began running down the hall Rika and Renamon had taken.

The group finally arrived at the door. "Alright everybody. On three! One! Two! Three!" Takato yelled as the digimon lined up their attacks. Monodramon also digivolved into Cyberdramon.

"Diamond Storm!"

"Desolation Claw!

"Kahuna Wave! Pah!"

"Guardian Barrage!"

"Bunny Blast!"

"Pyro Sphere!"

A large cloud of smoke appeared. The group leaned forward expectantly.

Henrika- Hehee. Cliffhanger. Sorry that this chapter was slow in coming and a bit of a filler. I think that the next chapter will finally have Rika's confrontation with Henry. **Gasp from readers** C'mon, like you don't know who's behind the door she was looking through. The next chapter is going to be a bit slow. Sorry about it.
