A/N: Hi, guys! Thanks for the reviews. I'm glad people liked the first chapter, even though it didn't have much action in it. I'll try to put some in here, though. I'm still racking my brain for ideas to Knights In Shinning Armor, but haven't got any yet. If you have ideas, put them in the review and I'll see if I want to use any.
Disclaimer: Digimon? What's Digimon? How can I own it if I don't know what it is? How can I write a story about something I don't know about? So many unanswered questions....
Chapter 2.
A few days passed, but no other snowstorm came. Every employee was happy about it, but the kids who didn't go to summer camp wanted some snow. Everything was normal and boring. Eventually, people got over the snow and went on about their daily lives of going to work, getting paid, and going home. Yep, normal life again. Everything was going great until a certain boy came back from "summer camp" early.
"Where are we?" A small pink thing asked, causing people to stop and stare.
The boy didn't answer. Instead, he looked around at their surroundings. Large buildings. Lots of people. That could only mean one thing....
"I-I think we're home!"
-------
Kari sat on the couch and flipped through the TV channels. Her Mom and Dad had gone out of town to visit her grandparents. Jess was supposed to have come over that day, but her Mom had to take her to the super market. Meeko jumped up onto the couch and curled up. This was going to be a boring day....
-------
Jess looked out her window as they approached the apartment building. She sighed. Kari would be waiting. As they parked, neither her or her Mom noticed a boy and a small pink thing walk by. Well, the pink thing hopped.
They carried the groceries to the elevator and Jess pushed the 4th floor button. After a few seconds, they reached that floor and walked down the hall and to their room. Jess's Mom unlocked the door and they walked in.
"Can I go see Kari now?" Jess asked excitedly.
"Alright, but be back before five," her Mom said as the girl skipped out the door.
-------
Kari and the boy were in the middle of their conversation when the doorbell rang.
"Coming!" Kari called. "Tai, you might wanna hide him."
The boy known as Tai ran around franticly, trying to find a hiding place for his pink friend.
"Tai, this is my friend," Kari said, letting her friend in. "Her name's Jess. I met her while you were gone. She moved in a few apartments down."
"Oh, uh, hi." Tai tried to hide the pink thing behind his back.
"Is that a Digimon?" Jess asked.
"Huh?" The question had caught him totally off guard. "How do you know?"
"I dunno," she said. "I've just seen a Digimon before."
'This must be the eighth DigiDestend Genii told us about.' He thought. 'But if she is, how do I tell? Kari knew it was a Digimon...'
"Would you like something to drink?" Kari asked, interrupting her older brother's thoughts.
"Sure," Jess smiled.
-------
Tai thought hard about what his next move should be. If this girl was the eighth DigiDestend, then what? Should he just ask her now, or wait 'til later? Everything was getting confusing.
"Whoa! What's that?"
Tai looked up to see what they were wondering about. The TV was on the News Channel and a man was talking as always. Behind him showed pictures of Tokyo and Digimon rampaging everywhere. The thing was, the people didn't seem to notice them.
Suddenly, all the electric things that were on started flickering then turned off. A nearby computer turned on and showed a boy. He was trying to communicate, but wasn't doing a very good job of it. He said something about a Digital World and Digimon escaping.
The computer cut off and everything went back to normal. Kari and Jess were still sitting on the couch, but they looked a little worried. What ever that boy was trying to say made sense to Tai.
"Kari, I want you and Jess to stay here," he said.
"Why?" She asked. "Where are you going?"
If he told them, they would want to go. He just couldn't risk his sister's life or her friend's life either.
"Just stay here," he said. "Koromon, lets go."
"Right," he followed Tai out the door.
"I hope they're safe," Kari said. You could hear the worry in her voice.
-------
Two hours passed and Tai still hadn't come back. It was almost five too, and Jess needed to get back to her apartment. She hated to leave Kari like this, but she had no choice.
"If something comes up, just call me," Jess said as she reached for the doorknob.
"Ok," Kari nodded.
Jess waved bye and walked out the door. As she walked down the hall, she thought about all that had gone on that day. Something was going on, and she wanted to know what it was! Oh well, whatever it was would have to wait until tomorrow.
-------
"Ok, there's one too many cards," Tai studied them. "How are we gonna get back to our world if I don't know which card's fake?"
"We trust you, Tai," A small boy said.
"TK's right," Another boy said. "We trust you."
"So, since you guys trust my judgment..." Tai said. "I choose Izzy to figure out the card pattern."
"Me?" He asked. He was the one who talked to Tai back in the real world. "Well, ok. If Myotismon could do this, I can too."
"Alright, Izzy!" The whole gang cheered.
-------
It was late morning in the real world when the DigiDestend finally woke up.
"We made it back home!" A girl dressed in pink shouted.
"But where's the Digimon?" Another girl asked.
"We're right here!"
Every one looked up to see them holding bright pink berries. The humans ran to their own Digimon.
"Now we have to find the eighth child before Myotismon does," Tai said, hugging his Digimon.
-------
All the kids got back to their families by late that afternoon. Jess was at Kari's apartment when Tai came back.
"Tai!" Kari shouted happily.
"Hi, Kari," he said. "Hi, Jess. I'll be in the shower if you need me."
"I need to get home," Jess said, looking at her watch. "I'll see ya later, Kari."
-------
Eight 'o clock. Jess had to get to bed in thirty minutes. No problem. The phone rang and her Dad answered it.
"Yeah she's here," he covered up the mouth of the phone. "Jess it's for you. It's Kari. She says it's urgent."
Jess took the phone and said, "Hi, Kari."
"Jess, please get over here as fast as you can!" She said. "It's urgent!"
The phone line went dead. Jess set the phone back on its receiver and looked for her parents. Neither of them were in the room at the moment, so she decided to sneak out. She quietly ran for the door and opened it.
As soon as she had shut it, she ran as fast as she could to Kari's apartment. It was as if her life depended on it. If Kari was in trouble, Jess would be there for her.
The door to Kari's apartment was open, so Jess just ran in. She could see Kari and Tai out on the deck with a kitty, a man dressed in weird clothes, and a dinosaur?! She opened the sliding glass door and stepped out onto the deck.
The cat was standing on its two hind legs and was handing Kari something that looked like a necklace and something else.
"What's going on?" Jess asked, trying to sound tough.
Kari looked down at the kitty then back at Jess and said, "This is Gatomon. She was here right after you left, but she didn't stay long. She says I'm a DigiDestend and that this guy Myotismon is looking for me."
For some reason, the name Myotismon sounded familiar to Jess. She wasn't sure why, but she felt like she had met him before.
"Who's Myotismon?" She asked.
"An evil Digimon who wants to take over this world," Gatomon said. "He wants to kill the eighth DigiDestend."
"And that's me," Kari said.
"Wizardmon, what were you saying about the nineth DigiDestend?" Tai asked.
"I only heard Myotismon mention that there was one, so I don't know who he or she is," Wizardmon said.
"You have their Crest and Digivice, right?" Kari asked.
"That's correct."
"Give them to Jess."
Wizardmon obeyed and as soon as Jess held the Digivice, it began to glow.
"The-the nineth DigiDestend!" He cried. "We have to get the real Crest for these two."
---------
A/N: There's the chapter for ya! I'd like at least two or three reviews for this chapter. I've already started on the next chapter, kind'a. Now the questions: so now that Jess knows she's a DigiDestend, what will Myotismon do? How come Jess feels like she's met him before? Read on and find out!
