Author's Note:

Well the response to this fanfic was really unexpected, but nice. I have decided to continue so please keep reading! (I find it very ironic that I got the most reviews for the one fanfic I wasn't serious about finishing, but oh well, I'd be more than happy to do so since it's not like there aren't any readers.)

About pairings and romance in this particular fic: I don't think I'm going to be making too many pairings, if any at all, (by pairings, I mean the nasty, mushy romance junk between two people who actually share feelings for each other), but there may be some one-sided romance where the feelings aren't mutual. (Example: The way Davis was willing to jump off a cliff for Kari, but Kari didn't want anything to do have to do with Davis.)

Still sprawled on the ground, Takato, Henry, and the kid looked up. A tall boy who looked to be around twelve years of age looked down at them. The boy had dark blue hair, which he had to keep shoving out of his eyes because of its length, and jet black eyes. "Shut up, Ohiko. You know I would never hurt you even if my life depended on your death. Enough playing around, let's go home." The boy was looking straight at the other boy who had run into Takato and Henry. As he had been talking, he had completely ignored both Takato and Henry, as if they didn't exist.
The boy called Ohiko stood up. "Oh come on, big brother. I just wanted to play and have some fun." Ohiko looked younger than the other boy he called "big brother". He had light blue hair and black eyes. Ohiko looked hopefully at his brother.
Before the other boy had a chance to say something, Henry said, "Now hold on for just one second."
"Hold on? To what?" asked Ohiko.
"No," said Henry, "I mean . . . . . why were you running from your brother, screaming, in the first place if you aren't in trouble now that he's here? And what were you saying about superpowers?"
Ohiko laughed. He was about to say something when his brother shut him up. "Enough. Let's go, Ohiko, before I get tempted to really hurt you."
"No. You're not going anywhere," Takato cut in. "At least not till you tell us your names," he added with a wink. "So your Ohiko," he looked at Ohiko, "and this is your brother, who's name is..?"
"What does it matter to you?" Ohiko's brother had an aggressive look on his face, "And I'd love to see you try and stop us from going." He grabbed Ohiko's hand and yanked him away in the direction of the exit to the park. He walked very briskly and was already halfway there when Takato started going after them, but Henry grabbed hold of his jacket and said, "No."
"What? Come on let's follow them. We need to know about what Ohiko meant about the "superpowers"."
"No," said Henry again. "Look closely at the older one." He pointed at the boy clutching Ohiko's hand.
"What? I see nothing."
"Look!"
"Oh. . . . . I see." Takato and Henry were both looking at the boy's back pocket where something fairly large had been stuffed in, carelessly and with obvious haste. The thing was sticking out of the top. After a closer scrutiny, the thing proved to look a lot like a D-Power, but it was slightly smaller, and looked a whole lot better. It was silver, instead of white, and where there had only been one single colored ring around the screen before, there were now two, one green and one yellow.
"You did say Calumon told us to ignore any other kids with the knowledge of the existence of Digimon, right? So it is probably better not to go after them."
"Right," said Takato. "Hey look! There's Rika, and Ryo too!"
Rika and Ryo were running towards Takato and Henry. "Hey," they both said at once. "Did you guys see the kid?"
"The one with the D-Power?" asked Takato.
"Yeah," said Ryo, "that's the one. I think I know him."
"Really?" Henry asked. "He sure was very overprotective of his identity."
Takato laughed. "Hey, that sounds kind of like Rika!"
"Does not goggle-head, watch your mouth!" Rika threatened, "If you don't, I'll -hyah-," Rika did a kick in the air with her right leg, "you into the wall."
"Dream on, Dream Girl," Takato ran behind Ryo immediately after saying this.
"Chicken," laughed Ryo. "Well, back to business. That boy, he's my neighbor. His name's Kenji, I think. He's really tense, quiet, and overprotective of his younger brother, Ohiko, who on the other hand, is very vocal, friendly, and energetic. It's kind of sad, actually. All Ohiko wants is a normal life as a child. He wants to play with his brother, but doesn't get why Kenji won't play. Kenji won't even let Ohiko play with the other kids, from like school, and around the neighborhood. You see, their dad disappeared when Kenji was four, and Ohiko was just a few months old then. I think Kenji was probably forced to grow up fast, taking care of his brother and all, and doesn't trust anyone. They live with their mother and grandparents I think, but I don't usually see them around that much. If Kenji is a tamer, or whatever they're being called now, I'd say he deserves it. Maybe it'll help his social skills, providing there are more kids with these new D-Powers."
"Yeah," joked Henry, "Digimon was able to help Rika, that makes me believe that anything's possible for others."
"You! Shut up or I'll plaster your head to the nearest tree."
"Let's not get violent, shall we?" Ryo said in a mock formal voice.
"Okay, we're getting off track here. I don't think Calumon asked us to help because it thought plastering heads into walls was going to aid the Digital World. We need to go back to the digiport now. Are we ready to go to the Digital World?" Takato asked.
"Yes, let's go!" Rika, Ryo, and Henry replied loudly in unison.
