"TIME TO FINISH HIM OFF GUILE" Jake shouted, "CARD SLASH, HORN OF DESOLATION ACTIVATE"

"Here we go" Guile yelled, "HORN OF DESOLATION"

"NO" Darklizardmon shouted, deleting, "I'LL RETURN"

"In your wildest dreams and over our dead bodies" Vic smirked.

"YEAH" Ryou shouted, "Even if you were nothing but a pathetic light-weight"

"Every bit counts" Addie chimed in, laughing.

"Too true" Ryou nodded, "Common, we're out of here guys"

"Okay" Everyone cheered, walking off.

"Hmm?" Jake pondered as he noticed something lying in the ground, "What's this?"

"Common Jakemon" Guile cheered, "Let's go"

"Okay, coming" Jake replied, picking up and pocketing the card, after a quick glance, "Hmm, 1400 attack 1300 defense, this is an eternal courage looking card, but what's it doing here", then ran off.

Things had been going in an interesting direction since the death of Robert and the celebration party, more Digimon showed their heads, and stranger things seemed to be occurring, behind everyone's back, the card was the latest strange thing to happen to the group, and was brought to everyone's attention when they returned to camp, along with the other "oddities" that had been occurring around the digital domain.

"Very interesting, but what could it mean?" Ryou asked.

"Good question" Addie murmured, "You tell me then we'll both know"

"Any ideas?" Ryou muttered.

"One" Jake replied, "We've got psychotic, demon slime on our tails again, and they've given their digi-warriors cards of themselves to psyche us out?"

"Anything's possible" Vic perked up.

"True, true" Ryou muttered.

"Then let's not worry about it until later" Addie laughed.

"Right" Jake chimed in, "Nothing to worry about, until we know more"

"So what's our plan now?" Siaarn asked.

"We go to sleep and find buried treasures of our mind?" Kris asked.

"Sure, why not" Ryou laughed, "You guys have a big day tomorrow, you've got to go meet the new tamer at the forest where you guys came in"

"All right then" Jake laughed, "Let's get some sleep, we got work in the morning"

"HEY" Vic laughed, "THAT'S MY LINE"

"Too much talkie not enough nappy" Guile whined.

"Too true" Mittenmon chimed in.

"You guys are nuts" Everyone laughed.

"NO WE ARENT" They yelled.

"Then let's go" Chris muttered, going to the cabins.

"All right then" Siaarn muttered, "I guess that settles that"

"Yep" Jake replied walking into the cabin as well.

"Wait for me" Guile shouted, bounding after him, getting a laugh out of everyone again.

The night didn't have many disturbances, other than hearing the water as the others had to repeatedly go into the bathroom, which seemed to wake Guile up every single time it happened, and he had gotten quite used to moaning and groaning about the noise and his highly sensitive ears and light-sleeping disorder. The next day, after a big meal, the group left for the forest.

"On the road again" Siaarn sang, "Happy to be on the road again"

"Ugh, not that song again" Jake started laughing.

"You're all nuts" Rika muttered.

"Where the heck did that come from?" Addie laughed.

"I don't know, just felt like it" Rika replied.

"Whatever" Vic laughed, "Let's just keep going"

"Yeah" Guile murmured, "I love this place"

"You told us already" Kris blinked.

"I know" Guile said, "I'm just enjoying the Robert-free time I get to spend here"

"You'll get it for the rest of your life" Jake laughed.

"Yep, cause that freak isn't ever coming back" Addie smiled.

"Yep, we smoked that freak" Chris added.

"Hey guys" Jake muttered bluntly, "I think we're here"

Everyone stopped in the clearing, waiting for the new tamer to arrive, so that the introductions could be made, after about five minutes, the group saw a light in the sky.

"Here she is" Siaarn announced.

"Duh" Rika muttered.

"Well, I hope she's friendly" Vic laughed.

"Yeah" Tachomon and Guile said in unison.

"Oh no, here comes the drop!" The new tamer yelled. The person appeared to be a girl, about sixteen years old, with brown hair, and brown eyes, "Ouch"

"Are you alright?" Addie asked as she helped the girl up.

"Yes, I'm fine" She replied, "And by the way, the name is Hana Kamiya"

"Interesting" Jake mumbled, "Same last name of Taichi and Hikari from the show in America"

"I know" Hana replied.

"So anyhow" Vic said cheerfully, "Let's introduce you to the others and ourselves, I'm Victor Hunter"

"And I'm Addie Tridier" Addie chimed in

"This is Grace Lombardo, Grace Hsiao/Rika Nonaka, she took the character's name because she liked her attitude"

"Hey" Both Grace's replied.

"I'm Jacob/Jake Murphy" Jake said.

"I'm Kristopher" Kris blinked

"And I'm Chris" Chris added.

"My name is Siaarn" Siaarn replied in her usual, interesting drawl.

"Well" Hana replied, "Very nice to meet all of you"

"You too" Vic replied "And…GET DOWN"

It was about then when a dark shape flew down from the sky, nailing both Hana and Vic square in the chest, the dark figure morphed slightly when it hit Hana, then took off again as quickly as it had come.

"What was that?" Chris yelled out angrily.

"I got enough time to get a good look at it" Jake murmured, "Even with glasses it was obvious"

"So?" Kris asked, "What was it?"

"Have you ever heard the term, for the light, there is also darkness?" Jake asked.

"Yes, all the time" Kris nodded.

"That thing was a fusion of all of us, I saw bits from everyone, I can't tell you how I know, I just do" Jake replied.

"You know?" Rika said, "I felt it too, how about everyone else?" Everyone nodded.

"It's an evil being, made from bits of us, like a twisted, human Kimeramon" Chris muttered.

"Then it must be stopped" Hana shouted with conviction.

"I'm going to like working with her" Guile laughed, "She's dedicated"

"Where's my Digimon by the way?" Hana asked.

"Right here" a Digimon popped out, "I'm Catamon, nice to meet you"

"You too" Hana smiled, hugging Catamon.

"Okay, while you two get to know each other on the way back" Addie smiled, "We'll figure out what we've learned from that person so far, by just his appearance"

"Or hers" Rika said

"Or hers" Addie agreed.

"Okay, let's go" Hana cheered, following everyone out, to return to base.

"So" Ryou said, "Let me get this straight, you were attacked by a floating clone of all of you, how do you know?"

"Because I watched it change when it touched Hana" Jake replied.

"I see" Ryou nodded, "Can you describe the parts you saw?"

"I noticed his hair was messed up in an area, he had a scar there, a trait of mine" Jake said, "He appeared to have Addie's eyes, Vic's hair, Rika's style of attacking, Chris' jawline, Kris' physical features, and Grace's hairstyle, and Siaarn's uh, teeth"

"And this can't be a coincidence?" Ryou muttered.

"Hey, anything's possible" Jake replied, "It just seems like too much of a match for me"

"Then what'd it take from Hana?" He asked.

"Looked like it took Hana's nose" Jake replied.

"I see" Ryou answered, "Well, looks like you guys have your work cut out for you"

"Yep" Hana walked in, sporting a very hyper Catamon on her shoulders, "Catamon seems to like Monodramon"

"Well now" Kris laughed, "That DOES appear to be a problem" Everyone laughed.

(Elsewhere)

"So" A voice said, "Did you get it?"

"Yes master" Another figure responded, "All the living members of the new team are now a part of me"

"And of the dead one?" The first asked.

"We're working on him" The other one answered, "Don't worry, project Chawakening will commence perfectly, and succeed, just like you predicted it would"

"Good, good" The first answered, "Just watch out that they don't figure out what the cards represent"

"Yes" The second one muttered, "They're all sharp, very smart people, that Ryou Akiyama has trained them well in such a short amount of time"

"So I've heard" The first muttered, "They already took out the DarkLizardmon and retrieved the first card"

"It won't matter" The second one said, "Even if they DO figure out the secret, they wont be able to stop us"

"Hey, guys" A third figure walked in, "He's ready"

"Good" The first two replied, walking into a room as equally darkened as the first, "Is this it?"

"Yes" The third said, activating a machine, opening a pod-looking device, then continued amongst the raising steam, "Here is the first step toproject Chawakening, the fallen one has been restored, and will fight again, we've even gotten him another digimon with which to fight"

"The perfect plan" The first said, "They all think that they're safe, but they won't even see him coming"

"How are you feeling my boy?" The second one asked.

"In perfect shape for revenge" A VERY familiar sounding voice uttered, "Look out Tamers, I'm coming for you"
