Ahhh, after a long and relaxing break, I am back to give you what you have been dying to read chapter 5! That is the chapter, right Izzy?

Izzy: hey, just because you were on vacation doesn't mean we all were! I'm going away to Mexico; I always wanted to see what it was like there!

Well, then, let's get on with this I do not own anything in this story except for the things you've never heard of in which case I made it up. Oh yeah, and it switches points of view much like the others, and eventually Kari takes over as the main narrator.

~*~

"It sure is dark in here" I say, trying to figure out if Izzy's upgrade includes a flashlight.

"Yeah, I know" Kari say's holding up her D-3 which is emitting a beam of light from the screen.

"How did you do that? I want to be able to see too!" I say, she laughs and walks over to me. There's a menu in the corner I didn't see before and one of the things on it says light. I press that and voila, I can see as well.

It's really creepy in here. The walls are covered in slime, I think, but I'm not nearly brave enough to find out. Kari and I give each other an uncertain look. We start to head down the hallway. Our D-3's don't do a whole lot, but at least we can see about a foot in front of our faces. We don't say a word to one another as we walk down this long dark hallway, and the eerie silence causes us to get closer together, and even hold hands. Our footsteps are being muted by the plants growing on the ground. They're sticky and if you leave your foot down too long, it starts to grow around it. So far we haven't met any other living things (besides the plant life) this is just getting weird. What kind of person creates a maze and doesn't put anything in it?

"Well well well, look at that. Those two digidestained are finally here. To bad it's the last place they'll ever be!"

"They saw through your last trick. What makes you think you can keep them from stopping you?"

"See that girl, the new prisoner doesn't know enough to keep his big mouth shut! Shall we do it for him?"

"NO! He'll be quite, I promise, just let me talk to hi-"

"Hey, what did you do that for? Hitting a girl is low, why don't you pick on someone your own size"

"Oh, you mean like you? Yes, I'm sure you can stop me. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some children to deal with."

~*~

"Well, which way should we go?" Kari and I have been standing at the same place for about five minutes. Luckily that plant doesn't seem to grow this far from the entrance. There is a fork in the path right in front of us. It's a tough choice. They both look exactly the same and equally frightening. Finally I say, "I think we should split up. We'll cover more ground that way" I know it's possibly the worst thing we can do, but it seems to be the only choice. I mean what if Patamon and Gotomon need our help?

Kari agrees with me, and with a quick kiss we take our separate ways. We have agreed to meet each other back at the fork in half an hour, and then we'll decide which path is more promising. I'm really creeped out. I didn't know it could go darker then pitch black, but that seems to be the colour in here. I hope Kari is ok, of course, if her trip is as uneventful as mine, she will be. That's for sure.

"Let's see, who to use. It's a tough call; we just need to take out the boy. I'll add the girl to my ever-growing collection. Can't be to powerful, I don't want to gloat.. I guess good old Starmon will have to do. Just kill the boy, and let the flying rat and the girl see him helpless on the ground. That will crush them, and thus make it easier for me to crush them as well. Got it?"

"Yes Sir Malmon"

~*~

"Why do you build me up, buttercup baby." That's odd, I just heard footsteps. It can't be Kari. She couldn't have got here that quickly. Oh no. This is definitely not good. Not good at all. Okay TK, this is not the time to panic. It was probably your imagination. You're in a high- pressure situation and you're a little stressed out. Just turn around and you'll see that nothing is there. Then you'll go and meet Kari and let her know that you saw no end to your tunnel. Ok here we go. We're turning now. "Oh Crap"

"Why hello TK, Remember me? It's been awhile hasn't it?"

No attack is necessary. One punch from him into my unsuspecting face and I'm out cold on the floor like a rag doll. The element of surprise really works well.

~*~

"Oh man, and Malmon thought it would be difficult. The look on that boy's face was priceless. And speaking of his face, look at it now. I wonder if he can keep a girl while he has a broken nose, black eye and giant gash in his side, not to mention the broken bones. If he is alive, I bet he envy's the dead for sure. Now all we need to do is prevent the girl from backtracking. I bet a quick cave in will do the trick."

~*~

"AHHH" What was that? A loud noise from behind. Better go take a look or run. No, now's not the time to be a coward. I have to see what it is. Maybe it's Gotomon coming to say we can go now. Or maybe. It's a cave in. No!!!! TK!!!!! HELP!!!!!! Crap, now what am I supposed to do. I guess I have to find another way out. I'll just keep going forward and hope that TK is ok too.

~*~

Well, that's the end of that chapter. I hope that you liked it. The next will be from Kari's point of view, for some obvious reasons, like TK being unconscious. So tune in, same bat time, same bat place!
