Chapter 11-Introduction (tell me if you like the intros)

Darkness was everywhere. It enveloped everything in the small, claustrophobic room. Nothing escaped it, except for six glowing balls of white and silver, blue, white-blue, green, brown, and gray. Upon closer inspection, you can tell that these balls of light are actually humans-or human-like creatures.

NOW it's the story:

Mel slowly opened her eyes and glanced blearily around her. Everything was fuzzy and swirling around her in dizzying circles and spirals.

"Ugh…will everything PLEASE stop spinning? I am sooo gonna kick someone's ass for giving me this killer headache," Mel groaned, closing her eyes. She re-opened them again when nobody answered yet this time, her eyes were clearer than before.

Where am I? More importantly, WHO am I? Even more important, I REALLY should be laying off those books… *looks down at clothing* No way. This cannot be happening. My jacket…it's ruined! That was my favorite jacket! At least the rest of my clothing seems intact…pants a little roughed up, shirt dirty and slightly ripped, shoes OK, jacket RUINED, hair…messed up but I'm still alive in one piece.

Mel's ears perked up as she caught the sound of a faint rustling noise somewhere to the left of her. A second later, a feminine groan (ok, can groans actually sound feminine, or masculine?) came after the rustling noise. Mel held her breath anxiously, staring at the darkened figure laying to her right. Too weak to move, she could only hope that the female was either Juri or Rika and not an enemy.

"Oh Seraphymon (1)…Where am I?" muttered a familiar voice.

"Rika! Thank Seraphymon you're all right! Can you move?" Mel asked, concerned and struggling to move.

Rika swore softly and long.

"Yeah, I can move. I wasn't hurt too badly, surprisingly," Rika muttered trying to get her bearings. "Have you located the others?"

"Yeah, we're all in the same cell. But it's too dark to see anything right now, even with the natural light our bodies normally give off…or normally in your case, and abnormally in my case. (2) Sorry".

"Ah, it's not a problem. Where are the two dorks?"

"That's, rude, Rika! I think they're on my left side, but I'm not quite sure".

"Well, since my initial dizziness is gone, I think I'll see if I can explore more of this…cell. Do you need any help?"

"No, thanks. Wait!"

"What?"

"Henry! Oh Seraphymon, where's Henry! He's the reason we were attacked in the first place, remember? You have to find him Rika!"

"Calm down, Mel! I'm sure he's OK. He knows how to take care of himself."

"Yeah, you're right…"

"Ugh…What's with all the high-pitched girly whispering? Can't a guy get some decent sleep around here?" Kazu, yes Kazu, asked, annoyed.

"Oh great. -_- Kazu's awake." Rika muttered, unhappily yet relieved.

"Now, Rika! Be nice!" Mel said, amused.

"Oh great. I'm stuck in a dark, damp, and SCARY BEYOND BELIEF place with not one, but TWO, annoying girls!" Kazu sighed unhappily.

Mel and Rika looked at each other, their eyes glinting in the faint glow. They communicated between each other and upon closer observation, you can see that the one message said, "Let's get him".

"Girls? Uh, girls? You can go away now! *gasps* Noooo!" Kazu yelled silently.

"Rika, Mel, I'd appreciate it if you'd stop scaring my boyfriend," A matter-of-fact voice said somewhere to our side.

"Kenta? Oh, you're awake. Funny, when we wake up, the light that our body originally emanates is stronger than when we're unconscious…" Rika mused thoughtfully.

"Of course, silly! That's because our body has natural defense mechanisms that allow us to automatically hide or whatever!" Laughed a light, high-pitched, and airy voice said somewhere to Rika's right.

"Juri! You're OK! Are you hurt? Do you need help? Do you-" Rika was abruptly cut off as Juri's hand covered her mouth.

"I'm fine, Rika. I was barely touched during the fight. Oh Mel!" Juri gasped horrified. Upon seeing Mel, she had noticed the numerous cuts and lacerations that adorned Mel's body.

Moving closer to the circle of bright light the currently five awakened friends, she immediately began to heal Mel's wounds.

"No, Juri! I'm-ouch! -Fine! You really-ouch! Watch it! - Don't need to do this! OW!" Mel cried, gasping in pain. Juri ignored her, however and continued to work away at Mel's wounds. Meanwhile, Rika, Kazu, and Kenta could not stop laughing. Not even stopping or looking up, Juri said, "When I'm done with Mel over here, the three of you will be next!"

"We-" Kenta managed to only insert in one word before-

"No matter how unhurt you are!" Juri snarled, looking extremely scary for that one moment. A second later, all you could see was her originally sweet smile. Light laughter echoed through the cell as the last glowing ball woke.

"You guys are hilarious, even when we're in a very serious situation," Henry said, amusement lacing his voice.

"Oh Seraphymon! Henry, you look horrible!" Rika gasped, her eyes widening in horror. Henry gave her a tired smile but said nothing.

His midnight blue hair was covered in dirt and grime, his pale face paler than usual, his clothes were ripped, torn, and bloodied every which way, and there was a deep gash, in the shape of a cross (Ruroni Kenshin! *squeals*) underneath his right eye, giving him a dangerous look.

All his cuts were still oozing out blood and the bruises he received stood out on his once fair and pale skin. He looked like as if he had been through hell and back! Henry opened his mouth to say something but was immediately arrested in a coughing fit that seemed to last forever.

"Are you alright?" Kazu asked, concerned. Dull silver eyes with barely any spark in them looked up at him.

"Yeah", was the breathless and soft reply? The others barely heard his reply.

"What?" came the expected response from Kazu?

Henry sighed, looking for the entire world, tired and old.

"I'm fine. You don't need to wor-" Once more, Henry was cut off by another coughing fit. This one seemed worse than before. His entire all-too thin frame was shaking underneath the pressure and pain caused by the coughing. After several minutes of coughing, Henry's coughs finally subsided, leaving him gasping for breath and doubled up in pain. Juri immediately moved to his side. After several futile attempts, Henry gave up on trying to shove Juri away and succumbed to his exhaustion and Juri's healing.

"Is he going to be alright?" Mel asked, eyes dark with worry and apprehension. It was obvious she didn't have much dealing with a close friend that hurt, although she used to be on the side of Evil. Juri didn't answer, mainly focused on healing Henry. Instead, Rika answered for her.

"Yeah, he's gonna be fine," Rika whispered, not adding, "I hope" to make the statement true. Juri's power could only go so far and by the looks of it, Henry was going to need a lot of healing. Rika wasn't sure if Juri would be able to hold up under so much pressure. Especially considering Henry was, is one of her closest friends and family.

By now, beads of sweat were beginning to form on Juri's brow, and her normally peachy complexion was rapidly turning a sickly white. Rika worriedly took this all in, including the fact that Juri's hands were beginning to shake underneath the strain of her healing and the normally bright glow (let's call it an aura, shall we?) was fading.

If Juri's aura is fading, that means Henry is hurt more than we thought and she's nearing the end of her power resources! What am I going to do!

All of a sudden, Juri's aura disappeared completely, along with Henry's aura. A shocked silence lasted about a second before Rika flew over to Juri's side and picked her up.

"Juri! JURI! Oh, wake up, please! Don't die on me, Juri, you hear? You CAN'T die on me! Please wake up!" Rika cried, tears falling down her face. Mel narrowed her eyes in worry and sympathy as she went to check on Henry.

Hmmm That's funny. I can still feel Henry and Juri's auras but I can't see them…I wonder what's-Oh Seraphymon help us! We have…

	


Did I explain the use of Seraphymon's name to anyone? Wasn't sure who'd they swear to so decided to use Season 4 angel digimon…
