Ya, don't own digimon, you all know that by now if you have been reading
this at all. I'm sure you have, so I don't need to mention it so ya.

I looked up at the ceiling of the prison cell. I could see a window at the top, and I wondered how I could get myself up there. Davis was dozing off in the corner, and Ben just sat off away from us, watching me. I stood up and walked around a bit. My legs were stiff, and I was getting bored not doing anything. I'm not sure what hour of the night it was, but I could tell it was late.
"What are you doing?" Ben asked, gazing at me with those odd eyes he had.
"I'm looking for a foot-hold so I can climb up to that window," I answered, grasping on to a brick in the wall that was slightly out of place.
"Don't even bother. I've tried that already."
"Yeah, but I'm bigger than you, so I can reach higher up."
"You still won't be able to reach the window."
"Just watch me." I grabbed the brick and started to pull myself up. It was hard going, and I didn't get too far until I lost my grip and fell onto Davis, who promptly woke up and was crabby.
"What are you doing, TF?"
"I was trying to climb the wall, Goggle-head."
"You couldn't climb your way out of a paper sack."
"Well at least I don't get knocked out by a table in a pizza place."
"If I hadn't been emotionally weakened by the fact that one of my best friends was lying to me…."
"I didn't lie to you…"
"OK then, you told me a falsehood!"
"What's the big deal? So I didn't want to hang out with after school!"
"You two have some issues." We both looked over at Ben, who had that cold look in his eyes. "You're fighting about such a trivial thing."
"Lay off, kid! You wouldn't understand! This is big kid talk." Davis could be so rude sometimes.
"If you ask me, and I know you didn't, I'd say that it would be very hard to tell that the two of you were friends." Ben sounded so sure of himself. That hit me hard. Maybe I wasn't such good friends with Davis as I thought I was.
"Shut up, kid! You don't know us! You don't know what we're like and what we're not like! You don't know who our friends are! You don't know anything!" Davis sounded very upset. Obviously, the kid's words had had the same effect on him as they had on me.
There was an awkward pause that lasted a few minutes. Each of us didn't want to say anything to the other. The silence started to get to me. "I wonder where Kari is. I hope she's OK."
"Yeah, me too."
It remained silent for a long time. I'm not sure how long, but it felt like a couple days. Every so often, one of us would get up and pace, but no word was spoken among us. We ended up spending a lot of time sleeping as quiet boredom started to overtake us.
Finally, after a few days of nothing, from the wall opened a door that we hadn't noticed before. A tall lady with flowing reddish brown hair stepped in. She could only be the one Ben had told us of. She had to be Alma.
"Larzalere tells me that I'm here to pick up one of you. Which one of you is the one called Takeru?" Her voice was cold and chilling, and I didn't dare speak up. I looked over at Davis. He looked nervously back at me.
Alma looked rather annoyed and repeated, "Which one of you is Takeru?" Ben stood up and pointed at me. I couldn't believe he had just done that! Gave me away to the enemy without a second thought.
"Ah, the blonde kid, eh? Well, maybe this won't be a waste of my time after all. What a handsome kid you are, too." She grabbed me by the wrist and dragged me out. The last thing I saw was Davis jump up and run towards me before the door closed.
I was taken through hall after hall until I reached a room that was ill-lit and small. Alma threw me on the floor and I landed at the feet of our captor, Larzalere. He laughed and said, "So, Takeru, how was your stay in the dungeon? Fun?" I hated it when people patronize me, and I especially hated it when I was in a bad mood already. I looked away. "Nothing to say, Takeru? Well, I have someone here who would like to see you."
As I looked up, I saw one of the most beautiful women I had ever seen. She was wearing a pink dress with a lot of frills and things, and she had long, brown hair and brown eyes. Suddenly, I realized something. I knew her, though I didn't realize who she was until a moment later.
"Kari?"
