I don't own anything in this story except the story I'm writing and my extra character. It means I don't own Digimon or any of the characters involved but my own.

Chapter 2: The Call

It was about 4:30 and everyone, including JP, was at the park. There were a few fields at the park and each was for a different game. Needless to say it was a big park. They each chose teams, which were Takuya, Zoe, and Tommy vs. Koji, Kouichi, and JP. This should be interesting. A few minutes into the game…

"Takuya I'm open" Zoe shouted. Takuya passes the ball to Zoe and she kicked it towards the goal. JP saw it was moving fast and only a little ways above the ground (nudge nudge) and ducked to protect himself, letting the ball go into the goal.

"Goal!!!" Zoe and Takuya yelled. Takuya then ran over to a flag score board and changed it. The score was Takuya's team 2, Koji's team 1. Koji then went over to JP.

"Why did you duck and let them score?" he asked trying to stay calm.

"To put it simply, I didn't want a replay of what happened at school today." JP said looking down.

"Fine." Koji said with a sigh. "I'll just have to take over as goalie for now. Just try to stick with Takuya while Kouichi goes after Zoe kay?"

"Alright I'll do it. I'm better at offense than defense any day." JP said.

"Hey are we going to stand out here all day and yak or are we gonna play some ball?" Takuya yelled. Zoe, Takuya, and Kouichi were waiting.

"Hold your horses, I'm coming." JP yelled back. He hurried up and the game resumed. After a few more minutes the game was tied 3 to 3.

"Hey you guys." Tommy yelled. "It's getting late. We should get going soon."

"Koji how's about the next goal wins ok?" Takuya suggested.

"Sounds good to me." Koji said.

"How's about we raise the stakes a little bit?" JP said. The others looked at him.

"Like what JP?" Zoe asked.

"Something like if we win you guys have to do something for us and if you win we do something for you." JP said.

"Sounds like fun. I accept." Takuya said confidently. "If we win you guy pay for ice creams for everyone." Koji, Kouichi, and JP huddled together.

"What should we ask for if we win? Any ideas?" Koji whispered. Each of them thought for a moment.

"Let's have them throw a party next Tuesday and they pay for the pizza." Kouichi suggested.

"Sounds good" JP said "But I'm still curious who Zoe's first love was. We should also have her tell us his name at least."

"Ok, but only if she's willing to. We don't want to be mean to her." Koji said. "Lets get to work and win this thing." And with that they broke up and got ready to play.

"Fine we accept. But if we win, you guy have to throw a party next Tuesday and pay for the pizza." Koji said. "One more thing though." He turned to Zoe. "If it's ok with you, you have to tell us your first love's name. I wouldn't blame you if you said no to that part, It's just JP's dying to know at least that much." Zoe looked surprised.

'Figures JP would want to know that.' Zoe thought. 'Maybe if I told them, he would lay off the subject for at least a little while.'

"Alright then, it's a deal." Zoe said. "Including the second part." She added softly.

"Ok then, lets get this over with. I can't wait for that ice cream." Takuya said, as he licked his lips. With that, the game resumed.

"Zoe, over here." Takuya yelled. Zoe passed the ball to him. He shot it toward the goal when JP intercepted the ball. He was running down the field when Zoe managed to get by him and stole the ball from him, and then went back down field. Zoe shot it toward the goal. Unfortunately, her foot slipped and her shot was a little lower than she wanted. Koji managed to get in the way, but to his displeasure the ball hit him hard in the face. He immediately went to the ground with eyes closed and hands on his face. The ball bounced back toward JP who, while everyone else was concerned with Koji, ran down to the other side of the field.

"Koji are you alright? I'm so sorry, my foot slipped and…" Zoe said while rambling on. Koji replied with what sounded like a moan or a groan. Takuya and Kouichi, although concerned with Koji as well, were on the ground laughing. Then Takuya heard…

"Takuya JP's about to score!!!" Tommy yelled. Takuya quickly got up and started running, but he saw JP take the shot. At that point it was like watching it in slow motion. The ball traveling through the air, Tommy trying to reach the area where the ball was heading, and everyone else (Koji included) watched and hoped for the ball to either make it in or be blocked by Tommy. Tommy managed to get his finger tips on the ball, but not enough to redirect it. Everyone watched as the ball sailed into the goal.

"Alright!!" JP and Kouichi shouted. Koji gave a little laugh but was still recovering from Zoe's shot.

"Ohh man!!!" Zoe, Takuya, and Tommy moaned.

"Ha ha ha, see you guys next Tuesday." JP yelled to them. Meanwhile, Kouichi was helping Koji up, who had finally managed to shake off most of the pain. They walked over to Takuya and Zoe.

"JP wasn't exaggerating when he said you had a powerful kick." Koji said weakly while smiling. Zoe blushed a little.

"Thanks Koji, I'm still really sorry about what happened." She replied.

"That's ok, but we still have one problem. Where will the party be?" Koji said.

"I don't think my Mom would mind if we had a party at my place, if that's alright." Kouichi said.

"Sounds like a plan to me. I'll tell my Mom where I'll be then. It would probably be best to have it around dinner time, while we're hungry, so… you think we might be able to come over right after school? Takuya said.

"Sure thing. I've got to go so I'll see you all later." Kouichi said.

"Yeah me to." Zoe said.

"Same here." Koji said.

"Alright then, see you guys later." Takuya said.

Everyone got their parent's permission to go over to Kouichi's house for a party after school. Takuya and Zoe managed to pay for the 3 pizzas while everyone else, Tommy included, helped get the rest of the stuff they needed for the party. We arrive just after they finish eating pizza and drinking soda.

"Hey, you guys remember what happened a year from tomorrow?" Kouichi said.

"What?" Everyone else asked.

"Tomorrow will be the first anniversary of Lucemon's defeat." Kouichi said.

"Hey that's right!" Takuya said. "That gives us another reason to cel-" He's cut off when everyone's cell phone start ringing. Each of them answer and see the same symbol they saw one year ago when they got called to the digital world.

"Digidestened, this is Sorcerermon. You a----- needed. An evil ----------------------- is controlling Digimon somehow. The Legendary warr-------- spirits again. Ranamon is the only one left on our side. Go to------- station, a Trailmon ---- waiting. We can't last much----------------------------------------." The signal goes dead. There's silence in the room as everyone tries to take in what the just heard.

"Well guys…" Takuya started. "It seems we're needed again to help save the digital world. We need to hurry and get to the train station ASAP."

So everyone starts to run to the train station, not before cleaning up of course, and they arrive at the underground station. We find Sorcerermon waiting for them, only his cloths are ragged and torn, and his staff has burn like marks on it. He's using his staff as a support as well.

"Sorcerermon!!!" Everyone yells. They all rush over to him. "What happened to you?!"

"Thank goodness my message made it to you." Sorcerermon says. "Listen carefully, for I don't have much time left. A few months ago in the digital world, someone who calls himself "The Digimon King" invaded our world. He started to construct black diamond like structures. Using the ship he came here on, he released miniature diamonds, except these were a dark goldish color. When it hit a Digimon it sank into him and the Digimon King would then be able to control that unfortunate Digimon. The big diamond structures act like a signal beckon to control the possessed Digimon." He coughs. "It also jams any communication signals in that area. If a possessed Digimon could reach a free area, they would be free for that time." He starts breathing a little more heavily.

"What about the Legendary Warriors? Didn't they try to stop him?" Takuya asked.

"Yes, they did try." Sorcerermon answered. "But he was to powerful. All of your warrior spirits were severally injured. They don't have much time either. They will be able to change back into their spirit form, but only if you are there with them." He coughs a few times. "Mercurymon, Arbormon, and Grumblemon were captured and are possessed. Ranamon managed to escape and is helping us find the chosen one." He starts breathing even more heavily. "I was sent to change your phones back into your D-Tecters." With that he holds out his snowflake staff and the digidestened's cell phones, once again, become their D-Tecters. After that, Sorcerermon collapses. He weakly says "Take this Trailmon to Ophanimon's castle. There is where the answers you seek are at. Good luck." With that he dissolves, not even a fractal code shown. Everyone is in shock or is mourning Sorcerermon's deletion.

"Everyone…" Takuya says "This doesn't look good. We need to get to Ophanimon's castle as soon as possible. This guy is worse than Lucemon, treating Digimon like slaves and forcing them to do horrible things." His hands are balled up into fists and there are tears in his eyes. "We've got to stop him now, before he can hurt any other Digimon." Just then, a red passenger train car appears at one of the tunnels. "Let's get going guys" he says sadly. And with that, they board the Trailmon (Worm, incase your wondering) and set off to the digital world.

That's it for chapter two. I know it may seem familiar, but just bare with me. There will be plenty of differences if you figured out how it's familiar. Please review.
