Chapter Eleven- Premonitions and Darkness
"Is this the right place?" Kari said as she stood in front of the restaurant.
"Yes this is it." TK replied. "Kari I'm a little nervous. What if the waiter talks in french
or something?"
"TK this isn't a french restaurant."
"I know but...what if they won't serve minors?"
"TK stop being so silly, everything will be fine, it's just a restaurant."
"And a date..." TK said so Kari couldn't hear him.
"TK,"
TK looked up tp see Kari walking inside, "Uh, coming!" TK hurried after her.
They went in and sat down at their table for four, and waited for Ken and Jesi to arrive.
"Hi TK! Hi Kari!" Jesi walked into the restaurant with Ken close behind.
"Come on Ken," she took his hand and pulled him forward. Ken stumbled into the
restaurant.
Jesi sat down next to Kari and Ken sat down next to TK.
"What are they so nervous about?" Jesi whispered to Kari.
"I guess it's a boy thing." Kari said. Kari and Jesi giggled.
"What are they laughing about?" TK whispered to Ken.
"It must be a girl thing." Ken said.
As the four Digidestined ate their meals, Kari began to feel uneasy about something. She
wasn't sure what it was.
"Kari is something wrong?" TK asked her.
"I..I'm fine."
"Kari you aren't sick are you? Do you need some water or something?" TK asked, very
concerned.
"Something...something is wrong. We need to go to the digital world right now."
"What? Kari are you sure? Maybe it's indigestion." TK asked.
"No it's not," Jesi said. "I feel like something is wrong too."
"We should go," Ken said.
TK nodded. "You're right, this isn't the first time weird stuff has happened to Kari."
They all stood up and TK took Kari's hand. She smiled at him. They began to hurry out
of the restaurant but heard the waiter calling after them.
"Hey you can't walk out without paying!"
"Oh," TK slapped the money down on the table. "Keep the change."
The Digidestined reached the school and sent an e-mail to Yolei, Davis and Cody.
"Digiport open!" TK said as he held up his Digivice, and they were transported to the
digital world.
"I feel a strange darkness here." Kari said as they walked through a dark forest in the
digital world.
"It feels like all the evil in the digital world has combined into one." Jesi said.
Ken stayed close to her as they walked.
"I wonder why we can't feel anything." TK said.
"It's their crests. Kari has the crest of light, so she can feel the darkness. And Jesi has the
crest of purity, so she can feel the evil."
"I guess that makes sense."
As the Digidestined walked further into the forest, it seemed to get darker and darker.
Soon they could barely see what direction they were going.
"I feel like we've been here before." TK said as he looked around.
"This place is so strange," Kari said. "It's like there are no signs of life or light anywhere."
"It's so quiet..." Jesi whispered, afraid if she spoke to loud she would break the silence
and cause something terrible to happen.
"Don't you hate it when it feels like someone is watching you?" Ken said.
The Digidestined walked quietly through forest, keeping lookout for anything. Their
digimon followed close behind, staying ready to digivolve.
"I don't like this place TK" Patamon said from the top of TK's head.
"Don't worry Patamon, we'll be ok. You four are strong enough to face anything that
comes along." TK smiled.
"He has a way of keeping everyone in a good mood." Ken thought. "It must be the crest
of hope. Since he always has hope he makes everyone else feel the same way."
"What's that?" Kari said. She stopped suddenly and looked around, trying to see through
the blackness of the forest. "Something is here...i can feel it."
"Ken..." Jesi stayed close to Ken. Like Kari, she could feel whatever the evil force was in
the forest and it frightened her. She remembered how Ken said he would always protect her.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Ken put his arms around her and held her close to him.
Kari took a few steps forward. She stopped and stared into the forest.
"It's here..."
Suddenly a strange shadow appeared and hovered over Kari's head.
"Kari look out!"
Kari screamed as the shadow surrounded her, and she disappeared.
"KARI!" TK ran over to the spot where she had been and looked around frantically. TK
fell to his knees and pounded his fist against he ground.
"I lost her... how could I let this happen!?"
Jesi walked over and knelt beside TK. She put her hand on his shoulder.
"We'll find her TK, she must be around here somewhere."
TK looked up and was about to respond, when he heard a strange laughter echoing in the
forest. The Digidestined looked all around them.
"Welcome to my parlor said the spider to the fly."
Ken got a look of anger on is face. "Arukenimon..."
Izzy sat at the computer at school typing away.
"Wow I never knew there were so many types of socks...amazing."
Suddenly Izzy got an e-mail. He double clicked the mail icon and opened it up.
"It's from Yolei, 'Izzy we are on our way to the school, do you know what's going on?'
Huh? what's she talking about, hmmm.."
Izzy accessed the grid map of the digital world. He took a look and saw something
strange.
"What's this? There seems to be a strange concentration of darkness in the Digiworld. It's
like a whole lot of control spires all in the same area, but last time I knew all the control spires in
that grid were destroyed. That's strange...and why am I talking to myself anyway?"
Izzy heard footsteps coming down the hall and turned to see Davis, Yolei and Cody run in
carrying their digimon.
"Izzy do you know what's going on?" Yolei asked, out of breath.
"We got an e-mail from TK saying they were going to the Digiworld and needed us right
away," Cody said.
"I have no idea, but I did find this when I got your message. Look, a strange darkness
right here." Izzy pointed to the screen. "It registers like a control spire would, except a lot more
powerful."
"Arukenimon must have made another control spire digimon, that must be what it is."
"That's one heck of a digimon. You guys better be careful, if it is a digimon it's one of the
strongest ones I've ever seen, possibly a Mega level."
"Well what are we waiting for!?" Davis said. "Let's go find out what this thing is before it
blows up the Digiworld or something!"
Yolei and Cody nodded.
"Digiport open!" Davis yelled and the three Digidestined warped through the computer
screen and were gone.
"Be careful..."
