Part Four: New Students

Six shadowy figures gracefully made their way through the darkened forest. Their faces were hidden in the shadows of their hoods, but if one were to look closely, they would be able to see some small differences. The one who was slowly leading the group was short, but walked in a strong and energetic hop. Directly behind the leader was a couple that was holding hands. The male was tall and muscular, while the girl stood only a couple of inches shorter then him, and the robes clung to her body in a flowing grace that helped bring out her slender and well developed body. Next to the boy stood another boy that was almost identical in form, but wasn't so graceful and sure of his movements. Behind the couple walked a tall skinny boy and a fat boy. The group blended into their environment as they passed out of the forest, and to a small clearing.

"Is it true, has it begun?" the leader asked as a white robed man made his way toward them. The man nodded sadly as his gaze wandered around the group, carefully analyzing each of them, as though he was trying to read into their very souls.

"So what do we do now?" the robed girl asked with a hint of concern and eagerness in her voice. The six figures turned their gaze to the white robed man, as they anxiously awaited his answer.

"I think it is about time you return. But do not make a move until you know who is really behind the attacks," the white robed man said as the six figures gave him understanding nods, and then made their way back into the forest.

"Who is the real enemy? We wont know what to do until we know for sure, but there are so many people and dark creatures that want that boy, it is almost impossible to know what their true intentions may be," the white robed man thought silently while he turned and headed into the opposite direction that the six figures had gone. All they really could do now was wait and see what happens.

TK looked at Matt with concerned baby blue eyes. It had been a couple of weeks since they had returned home, and already Matt was planning on another concert to make up for their loss in New York. "He's still not sleeping," TK thought as he looked around his brother's apartment..

"Matt, are you ready to pick up Mimi and Sora?" Tai asked as Matt nodded. Today was their first day of school, and the digidestineds had arranged to head to school together.

"Davis, Yolie, Ken and Izzy will meet us at the school gate," Kari announced as TK picked up his and his brother's guitar. Matt gave him a dirty look, but TK refused to give the instrument to him. Matt shook his head, he knew TK wanted to make things easier for him, but he couldn't help but feel smothered.

"Matt, maybe we should cancel the recording this afternoon. You look like you hardly slept last night," TK said softly as the four teenagers made their way to Sora's place.

"What are you talking about? TK, we have to get those new songs recorded," Matt pointed out as TK and Tai rolled their eyes.

"Why do you have to be so stubborn?" TK asked softly, but Matt refused to answer. Instead, he stared forward, and continued to walk forward in an emotionless silence. TK and Tai exchanged looks of concern and annoyance, but they quit their pressuring. If Matt didn't want to talk, there was no way they were going to get them to talk. So instead, they finished their walk in silence.

Matt gazed at the students in his homeroom with a small amount of interest. Tai, Mimi, and Sora were part of this class, but for the moment, the three of them were talking excitedly about the last soccer game. Mimi laughed amused as Sora explained how Tai and Davis had created a victory dance for every goal the team made. Matt yawned with little interest. Tai and Davis's little acts of idiocy had gotten old awhile ago, and even though it could sometimes be amusing, most of the time Matt found them to be a little annoying. Shaking his head, Matt turned his attention away from his friends, as his dark blue eyes carefully studied the other students in the room. There were many people that Matt recognized from the year before, but near the far corner of the room were six students he had never seen before. There was a round boy with a pleasant, sort of jolly look on his face, and there was a tall very thin boy with brown hair and green eyes. Sitting together was a boy with black hair and eyes that Matt only saw when he gazed into the mirror. The girl that sat next to the black haired boy was a beautiful girl with emerald green eyes and golden blonde hair that was the exact same shade as Matt's. Talking in hushed whispers was a short boy who was wearing square goggles on his head, and a boy who looked almost exactly like the black haired boy, except his eyes were slightly different.

"Wow, I bet those two are twins," Matt heard Mimi say as he snapped his head away from the group of new students. He really didn't want to seem rude by staring at them, and anyways, he had learned all he needed to for the moment.

"I wonder who they are, the black haired boy, and the girl seem sort of familiar. I wonder if I had seen them before," Matt thought while he pulled out his schedule.

Mimi gave an excited squeal as Matt showed her the new song they were going to record. It was duet love song, and Matt had asked her to sing it with him. It was almost like a dream come true for Mimi, and she couldn't help but smile as the song started. Matt softly sang her part, so that she would understand how he wanted it done, and then he told her to try it. Gazing at the band a little nervously, Mimi softly began her part. When Matt gave her an approving nod, Mimi felt confidence build up inside of her, and she began putting feelings into her voice.

TK smiled proudly as Mimi's voice filled the small sound stadium, erupting off of the walls with a strong radiance, and yet it sounded so sweet. At first everyone had been surprised when Matt announced that he wanted to put a love duet in the new CD, but the manager seemed to have loved the idea. He pretty much said that it would give the girl's more to fantasies about, but Matt refused to allow him to pick his singing partner. He told everyone that he already knew someone who would be perfect for the part, and it wasn't until Mimi showed up ten minutes ago, that TK realized who Matt wanted.

"Excellent Mimi, that is exactly how I wanted it to sound," Matt said smiling at the girl proudly as he nodded toward the manager. "Now all you have to do is sing like you normally do, and you'll be fine," Matt said pulling on his headphones, and adjusting his microphone. Behind the glass panel, the manager slowly started the countdown by holding up his finger. When all of his fingers were down, the music started the introduction.

TK played his guitar as he listened to his brother sing the lyrics. A second later, Mimi's voice joined them, and their voices blended together in an almost perfect harmony. It was a slow song, but it was also supposed to be very powerful and dramatic. Sometimes the band would play so softly that it was hard to hear the music, and sometimes they crescendo to the point that the music enveloped the listener in an endless wave of sound. It was during the point that the music was getting soft, when the ring of a cell phone could be heard. Almost instantly the music ended as everyone watched Matt pull out his cell phone.

"Hello?" Matt said purposely turning away from the manager's disapproving glare.

"Yamato, you need to get out of that building now!" Matt heard a women's voice say.

"Why?" Matt asked feeling his face harden in suspicion.

"You have ten seconds to get out of there!" the women said while Matt snapped his head up.

"Everyone, get out of here!" Matt demanded grabbing Mimi and TK's hand as he raced out of the room, and toward the exit, leaving the cell phone behind in his haste. The other people had confused and frightened looks on their faces, but they followed Matt without question. They knew the blonde enough to know when he was serious about something.

"Ten…nine…eight…seven," the women's voice said in the phone, while Matt was doing the same thing outside the building.

"Three…two…one…" Matt said under his breath when the building exploded. Matt was thrown backward from the force of the explosion, but quickly recovered. His dark eyes wandered around the smoking debris. His soul concern was making sure that everyone was alright.

"Matt!" TK yelled carefully picking himself off of the ground when he noticed a dark shadow leaning against the side of another building. TK's eyes narrowed as he tried to make out the figures form. "It has to be a women by the way she is built," TK theorized when he noticed the strand of almost whitish blonde hair fall out from under the hood.

"TK!" Matt's frantic voice yelled, causing TK to turn and look at his brother who was racing toward him with concern etched on his face. TK gave his brother a reassuring wave before he turned his attention back to the women. Only when he turned his eyes to the place he had seen her, she was gone. The only thing that remained was a cell phone, and a dark hood.

TBC.

Author's note: The mystery begins. Who are the six kids, and what do the want? Who are the seven-cloaked figures at the beginning? Who are behind all the attacks? And who is the mysterious women that TK keeps seeing? To find out, stay tuned for the next chapter of Family History, which will be updated after I get ten reviews. I would go for five, but I'm a really busy person right now, and I don't have really anytime to update. But if I get ten reviews, I will feel like you guys deserve an update, and I will force myself to make some time. And just to make things fun, try to answer the questions I've asked. I know the answer, but I want to know if you do too. So please send me a review with your guess, and why you think that that is the answer. And don't forget, after I get ten reviews, I will update. Thanks again for all of your support, I really do appreciate it.
