Chapter 6
Ranma awoke. Looking for any sign of his pops and only finding Takato, Guilmon, and Calamon. He notice that Takato must have woken up late last night for he's note sleeping under the covers. Blinking and slowly getting up he walks over to Takato and gently places his blanket over him. Calamon's eyes open and he yawns and stretches. "Tough night huh?" Ranma asks.
Calamon blinks and looks at Ranma. "It really evil bug guy showed up. Guilmon had to become Growlmon and we won. You want to play?" Calamon nows flying in the air and following Ranma out of the room.
"Maybe after school, little guy. Maybe." Was Ranma's answer. Seeing that the bathroom was in use, Ranma heads to the living room. Kasumi had setted the table. Surprise about the number of places, Ranma asks Kasumi, "Why just three? Aren't you going to eat?" Looking puzzled.
"Akane will be eatting her meals in her room until futher notice. Takato had to go out to battle a Digimon last night, so he'll be sleeping late. I really don't need to watch Akane glaring at Takato during meals." Kasumi says tiredly.
Ranma look at Kasumi. He's surprised. Kasumi does look tired, of feelings wise or just physically. Calamon watches from the table. 'I forgot about what happen between Akane and Takato. Takato must be really important to her. I can understand. I really like the kid. I can relate to being the one that everything rests on. Not easy. I know his handling this whole thing well. I wonder if he's had anything like this happen before. Really got to talk to him about it.'
Nabiki comes into the room. Kasumi brings out the food. Everyone sit and begins to eat. Calamon eats from his own plate. Nabiki reads the paper and Ranma just eats and tries not to get lost in his thoughts. Ranma has changed in the last six months. He found himself thinking on other thing other then his typical thoughts. Like find himself warming up to school work. He's been paying more attention to what his teachers say and to what's in the text books. He's been try harder to get his home work done and even harder to try not to stick is foot in his mouth as he talks to Akane. He knows Akane hasn't notice the change. Nabiki and Kasumi do though. The grown men of the house are just clueless when it comes to anything other then getting Akane and him together. But what happen last night changes everything in his life. Akane need help. Ranma knows that Akane has trust issue when it comes to believing what he says or does. In last three months though the hositile level has been going up a few nocks.
Ranma's snaps out of his thoughts and looks at the time. Saying bye to the others Ranma calls to Akane that it's time to go. Ranma waits and then with Akane following heads to school.
----------
Kari has a lot on her mind as she walks with Gatomon. Kari had left early to go to school. Her mind continues to think about her dream. Mostly on the card game she had viewed. 'I don't know if it really there's an real game or just my imagetion. But why do I feel that this boy is real? How is it that I know? Why do I feel so worried about a boy that I havn't even meet? I know that with those goggles he reminds me of Tai and Davis, but he's different. Why he's different I don't know. Lets see I, both Tai and Davis are headstrong, don't plan too far head, and both wear goggles. I know a lot of boys my age and under have been wearing goggles. So, who is he? And just how much is he trying to act like Tai and Davis? I wonder when I'll find out.'
Kari was in front of her school when her D-terminal beeps. Opening her back pack, she takes out her D-terminal and opens an E-mail from Izzy. "I got a odd reading coming from your schools gym. Kari could you check it out? The other's are on their way, Izzy." Kari reads out loud. Gatomon looks at Kari, "While we'll check it out." Kari respond, "Give me a minute, I'll E-mail Izzy that we're going for a look." After she finishes she pockets her D-terminal and closes her back pack after taking out her D-3.
They head for the gym. Entering the gym Kari notices the strange fog. Gatomon stays close to Kari. Finally she stands in the center of the gym. The fog seem to be gone. Off to Kari's left she spies and unknown digimon. The digimon seems to be on fire. Black flames move over her body. A golden plate covers her head, but has eye hole. Golden claws by here side.
"Gatomon do you know what Digimon that is?" Kari just stares. Some where in her being knowing that this Digimon is anything but friendly. Gatomon shakes her head. The dark Digimon looks long and hard at both of them. Then turns as Davis and T.K. come into the gym. Davis rides on Raidramon's back and T.K. on Pegasusmon. Look disintested a portal forms to between Kari and the dark Digimon. The Digimon moves to the portal and Kari runs to stop her. Gatomon runs and tries a Lightning Paw but it misses it's mark. Both Kari follow the Digimon through the portal.
-------------
Takato wakes to the sound of Guilmon growling. Looking for Calamon but can't find him returns to checking to see if he has everything. Guilmon heads out of the room with him following. As they reach the stairs they see Kasumi and Calamon, with a look between Takato and Kasumi with her nodding her understanding. Calamon flys to Takato's head and they leave the house following Guilmon.
Running to keep up with Guilmon they find themselves at a mall. Takato pulls his goggles over his eyes. And heads for into the Digifield. Guilmon has already disappeared into it. As Takato makes his way through the sight was one that will be one of his most rememberable. Right up there with meeting Guilmon for the first time, Guilmon first calling him Takatomon, and when Guilmon digivolves into any of his other forms. For there fighting with Guilmon was a Gatomon. And off to the side was someone Takato thought was a cartoon character. The one and only Kari Kamiya, the Digidestine of Light. Pushing his goggles back into place Takato brings out his D-ark.
Darlizardmon
Champion level Digimon
Virus type
Dark Dragon. Attacks are Snipe Fang and Dark Flare.
Takato returns to watching the battle, his head spinning. Not noticing that Calamon was flying toward the parnter of the Gatomon doing battle with Guilmon.
--------
Kari find herself in a mall. One minute she was in the school's gym and now in a mall. To busy trying to make sense she forgot about the dark Digimon. But as she hears people crys and things breaking, bringing her out of her thoughts. Gatomon attacks to give people time to run for it. 'Why is she attacking now? She didn't at the gym. So what's different? Is it because there's more people around?'
Soon Gatomon begins to weaken and red blur attacks the Digimon. Sending the dark Digimon back, Kari gets a good look at him. Then is shocked. 'It's that boys parnter! Does that means he's around here! So where is he?' Soon she spots him coming throught fog. Goggles covering his eyes and too looks at her. Soon he takes out his Digivice. Kari notice the image that shows up. Then the image is gone and the boy returns to watching the battle. Kari too watchs the battle until a small white Digimon blocks her view. One of the first things she notices is that this one's cute. "You have anything I can drink?" The Digimon's question and total lack of concern about the fight just makes Kari blinks. "No I don't, sorry. But should you be helping them battle?" Kari asks the white Digimon. "Nope, for one thing is Guilmon's really strong and Takato helps make Guilmon even stronger if he getts into trouble." Comes the white Digimon's reply.
'So the boy's name is Takato and his parnter is Guilmon. That's good to know.' "So what's your name? I'm Kari and my parnter's name is Gatomon." Kari asks.
"I'm Calamon!" Then the Digimon lands on her head. Surprised at the action, Kari returns to watching the fight.
Guilmon continues to block and Gatomon attacks. Finally the Digimon just stays where it lands. Before Gatomon or Kari knows Guilmon uses one more attack. The dark Digimon become data. A portal opens and after the data enters it closes. Kari just feel stunned. 'That was uncalled for! There must be a better way to handle that!' She watches as Takato moves to check up on his parnter. Gatomon walks over to where Kari is.
The they walk over to talk to Takato about what happened. "You didn't need to do that! We could have sent her back to the Digital World." Kari says to Takato. Takato look sadly at Kari, "There's no Digital World in this reality. I can't let Darklizardmon get another chance to hurt people. I'm sorry that you had to watch it, but from what I can tell the only way for them to go back is when they become data and the portal opens." Takato says sadly. Kari and Gatomon look surprised. By the tone and what he said. "I'm in a different reality? I'm Kari by the way. I guess I should have to hear about how you come to this reality. So, lead the way."
------------
Takato watch as the data and portal vanish. He heads to where Guilmon is. 'We needed to have eaten. Guilmon wasn't fight too well. Have to remember to a have a pack full of some food so that next time as we're coming here we can eat too.' Takato forgotten all about Kari and Gatomon until he hears her say, "You didn't need to do that! We could have sent her back to the Digital World." Takato looks at her sadly. He too would have like to find a better way too. "There's no Digital World in this reality. I can't let Darklizardmon get another chance to hurt people. I'm sorry that you had to watch it, but from what I can tell the only way for them to go back is when they become data and the portal opens." Kari looks like she believes him because both her and her parnter look surprised. 'Must have been expecting a different answer.' What she said next confirmed this. "I'm in a different reality? I'm Kari by the way. I guess I should have to hear about how you come to this reality. So, lead the way."
And so Takato did. "Takatomon, I'm hungery. When can we eat?" Takato just sighs and answer, "First I'm not a mon and when we get back to the Tendo's." Kari and Gatomon just looked stun at what Guilmon said and how he sounds. Then smiles at Takato's answer.
------------
Ranma had fought Mouse. Luck was with Ranma for didn't meet up with Shampoo. Akane just saying about how Takato's the reason for what happened last night. Ranma just tones her out.
Ranma finished with Kuno, he heads to the class room to work on his homework. 'I wonder what everyone will react to what Akane tells everyone about Takato.' He finishes before class starts. As everyone begins to start coming in. Class was about to start when this odd fog begins to appear. Everyone freazes. They've been hearing rumors about. Ranma just swallows hard.
As everyone begins to leave before any monsters show up, Ranma heres to where he thinks the monster will appear. Wonders if Takato will be showing up. Not knowing what Digimon will be showing up.
Ranma see something that reminds him legos. There standing in the yard what a Digimon made out of legos. So, more of the appeared. Finding how many there are.
-------------------
After eating breakfast. Kari enjoy talking to Kasumi. She finds that Takato has been here for six days. She's not surpised at how much Guilmon eats. She is reminded of Tai and Davis as compared to Takato but now she finds just how different they are. Takato does try to think ahead and not as loud as the other two. Takato returns from having a bath. Wearing a blue T-shirt with black jeans. His deck and D-ark on his belt. His goggles on there usual spot Takato eats a bun.
Suddenly Guilmon starts to growls. Gatomon wakes at the sound. Calamon walks over to Kari. Kari picks him up and watches as Takato says bye to Kasumi and soon Guilmon leading the way as Kari, Gatomon, and Takato follows.
Kari had talked to Kasumi quit a bit before. So she now knows just how much damage these Digimon are willing to do. She can't believe about the stories how these martial artist have been taking on Digimon and walk away from it. 'I can't believe it. First I'm in a world where magic is a fact of life for some people. I'm in a world where martial artists have the power to destroy a building with a single finger. Nobody back home is going to believe this. I guess I'm lucky to have Takato here. His D-ark is pertty amazing. Imagin helping your parnter with a swipe of a card.'
Soon they find themselves in front of Furinkan High School. A larg Digifield hangs around the yard. Pulling down his goggle and Kari puts on sunglass. 'You know it doesn't look to thick now? Is it because of the glass?' Kari thinks. Soon they're in the yard confunted with lego looking Digimons. Watching as Takato takes out his D-ark and it reads.
ToyAgumon
Rookie level Digimon
Vaccine type
Puppet. Attacks are Toy Flame and Block Punch.
"Those are Agumon? I get if you look hard enough." She says. Knowing that Takato's D-ark had this capablity. Though finding out that it tell you the Digimon's attack are very helpful. Gatomon and Guilmon begins to delete as many ToyAgumon. More and more begins to appear.
Tried of seeing so many taking out her D-termenial, Kari crys out. Soon Gatomon glows. Soon Nefertimon appears. Takato just stares. Before taking his eyes off Nefertimon and look of wonder shows in his eyes. Kari wonders about that but returns to watch the battle. Then comes a young man who jump kick one of the ToyAgumon.
"That Ranma Saotome. Kasumi told you about him righ?" Takato askes. Kari look surprised nods.
"Hi Takato. There's about twenty more to add to this bunch." Ranma says to Takato. Kari just watching as more show up. 'His right there is twenty more! Where do they come from?'
Takato swipes a card. "Digimodity: Power actcivate!" Now a single Pyro Sphere took out a group of ten. Soon it was over. A portal opens and all their data flow to the portal and soon it closes.
"So Takato who's your friend?" Ranma asks, looking at Kari closely. "My name's Kari Kamiya and these is Gatomon, she's my parnter." Nefertimon had gone back to being Gatomon. Ranma notices Gatomon for the first time. "Cccc …" Takato with Kari look at Gatomon and then at Ranma. Gatomon backs away from the paniching Ranma. Ranma hides behind Guilmon. Kari looks to Takato and Takato just shruges. "Maybe he doesn't like cats?" Ranma just nods at the statement. 'This is going to be a long day huh?' Was all Kari could think about. Calamon just giggles and Guilmon looks confused.
---------------
The data from the group of ToyAgumons get absord by a NeoDevimon. The memories of what happened to the group. Like how they attacked and how soon their attackers countered. All the memories are for NeoDevimon to learn from and to use. The branch that he stands on cracks. A BlueMeramon had land on the branch. "It goes well." He says. "Yes it does." Was all that NeoDevimon would say. "The next group will be really soon." BlueMeramon stated. Again NeoDevimon nods. "The girl with the Gatomon was unforen element, but she doesn't matter in the long run." NeoDevimon replies, "The future is written in the air. Anything and everything is subject to change. We should know that and remember it." BlueMeramon nods and jumps away.
A couple of Gladimon move among the roost. "Why must we sever? Is it not enough that we are thankful? We have free will! Are anything less just because we are born from the Great One? I love the Great One but all children must learn to be independed?" The companion nods. "True but enough talk for now. Later when we know more we can plan. But for now we sever."
The two were spoted by a figure. 'Maybe I can talk to them. Maybe even to the Dire. I hope where you are Takato you watch you step. Every fight you have the more they learn about you. Rika and Henry won't be able to help you for quit a while. Good luck.' The shadow faints from view.
--------------
'The next person with aDigimon just had to have a c c …feline for a parnter.' Was all Ranma could think about as he walks to the Tendo's with Kari and Takato. The Digimon had went on a head.
