Okay, I was in a typing mood so I decided to be nice and give ya'll one
more chapter. Don't count on this, but there might be another one if I
don't leave next Sunday. I might have to take a keyboarding test sometime
early June so that I can take technology my Senior year (just to let you
know, next school year I will be a Junior. ^.^). I don't need to take a
Keyboarding class when I already know how to use a keyboard (if I didn't
you wouldn't have anything to read now would ya? (). Well, on to the
story.

"I can remember you distinctly." Izumi pointed to Kouji.
"Who am I then?"
"Kouji Minimoto."
"This is strange." Kouchi thought out loud before he noticed that Izumi was just standing in the doorway. "You don't have to stand in the doorway Izumi, you can come in. We don't bite." He joked.
"Yeah, come on Izumi." Tomoki took her hand and dragged her into the room.
"Okay.."
"Tomoki. Tomoki Himi." He finished, "and that is Takuya Kanbara, Junpei Shibayama, and Kouchi Kimura, Kouji's older brother. The she is Ophanimon. She was the one who called us all here the first time and this time."
"Wow. You're tall." Izumi looked up at her, "And pretty."
"Thank you Izumi." Ophanimon smiled.
"How can you not remember us Izumi?!" Junpei begged her to tell them.
"Well, 5 months ago I was involved in a car accident and gained amnesia. I can remember a few things, but to a limit."
"Like Kouji." Takuya stated.
"I can remember Japanese and Kouji. That's it." She sat down on the spot that Tomoki had taken her to and fiddled with her bracelets. "I don't even remember what this thing is for." She took her D-Tector out.
"Now that is an even bigger problem." Takuya told her with a gloomy tone.
"How so?" Izumi looked at him with a confused face.
"If you don't remember what it is then you don't know what it contains. Without knowing what to do with it, there is no way for me to be come Emperorgreymon so we can defeat Lucimon and we all know Mangnagarurumon (guessing on spelling) can't defeat him on his own."
Kouji frowned at this.
"Don't worry about it Kouji," Kouchi patted his brother on the shoulder, "None of us could hold our own out there."
"That's what I'm worried about." Kouji told him and left the room.
Izumi watched Kouji leave then looked down at her D-Tector. 'What is so special about this thing that this world depends on it?'
* * *
The dessert night was cool and comforting to the touch, but not to what lays deep inside. Kouji walked out of the underground shelter into the night,
'Why did she even come back if she can't remember anything? Not one thing about the digital world or Kazemon and Zephyrmon.'
He walked out of the town with his hands in his pockets. He shortly came across an oasis that had a few palm trees, lush grass, and a rock that over looked the pool of water. Kouji climbed up on the rock, gazed at the moons before looking over the water, his reflection rippling across the water.
"How can we get Izumi to remember? I can't fight alone." He asked the empty space around him.
"Maybe someone needs to help her remember." A voice came from behind him.
Kouji jumped up grabbing his D-Tector in the process. He relaxed when he saw Takuya standing there.
"Don't do that Takuya." He sat back down on the rock and resumed his gaze.
Takuya sat in the grass next to the rock Kouji was sitting on and looked at the moons. "You should help Izumi remember Kouji."
"Why do yu suggest that?"
"Multiple reason. 1) She remembers only you therfore trusts you and she just meet the rest of us all over again. 2) I know she cares for you. I can tell by the way she looks at you. and finally 3) You still care for her after all the years she has been gon, but even more so now."
"How do you even know that I even cared for her in the first place?"
"I saw you kiss her before she left and the way you were depressed after the first couple of months."
"YOU WHAT?!" Kouji jumped off his rock and tackled Takuya.
"Don't worry. I didn't tell anybody. I swear it." He defended.
"You better not have or I swear you'll wish you never saw that." Kouji got off of him and got back on his rock.
"Why are you afraid to show that you care about someone around other people Kouji?"
"I'm not afraid." Kouji said coldly, "I just don't know how." He rested his headon his arms that were propped up on his knees.
"Your pride isn't it?"
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"Why the heck am I even talking to you about this?" Kouji jumped off the rock and started back to the town.
"Don't deny it Kouji! Your pride has the better of you!!" Takuya yelled with a corny smirk on his face.
"Whatever." Kouji waved him off and went back into the town.
Takuya shook his head and turned back to look at the water. An emotionless face took over as he thought about the day that Izumi left. He had said he was going to go get a drink of water really fast when he saw Kouji kiss Izumi. Yes, he had a crush on Izumi then, but he had always noticed that most of Izumi's affection went to Kouji. Not that he was jealous or anything, just a little upset.
Takuya stayed at the spot a little longer before getting up and heading back.
* * *
"Master Lucimon, you wished to see me?" Devilucimon approached his ruler hesitantly.
"How comes the collection of the spirits?"
"Uh..we are trying my Master. The humans, they are stronger than we thought. They seemed to have absolute control over the spirits, but the power that is given to them comes from Ophanimon. Her being present seems to give them the power to defeat most of your followers. Also Master, it seems that the holder of the spirit of Wind has not journeyed to the digital world."
"Is that so. Well it will not be long before she arrives. Once she does, separate the boy with the Light spirit from their little group. Bring them both to me once the job is accomplished understand?" Lucimon told him, "Now go. You're presence annoys me." He waved the Digimon off.
"Yes Master." Devilucimon slinked off to do his master's dirty work.
* * *
By the time Takuya had gotten back from his little walk everyone was asleep, so he tried his hardest to walk in without waking anyone. Once he got to his little spot in the room he heard a rustling sound from behind him.
"You're not very quite you know." Izumi looked at him shaking her head.
"Sorry, did I wake you?"
"No. I took a long nap on my way here. It will be a while before I go back to sleep." She told him.
"Will you two keep it down? Some of us are trying to sleep." Junpei glared at the two of them from his spot.
"Come on let's go some where else. I want to talk to you Takuya." Izumi stood up and walked out of the room.
Takuya sighed and made his way back out of the room. Once he got out, Izumi was waiting for him by the door.
"I think you are quieter leaving them coming." Izumi giggled and led them back outside.
They didn't go too far from the shelter this time, but only a few buildings down. Izumi sat down on one of the porch things and wrapped the blanket she had with her around her shoulders. Takuya sat down next to her and rested his arms on his knees looking out in front of him.
"So," He turned his head towards her, "What did you want to talk about?"
"Well, basically this thing." She pulled the purple and pick D-Tector out from under the blanket, "What is it and what is inside it?"
"Okay. It's called a D-Tector. It helps us well evolve."
"Evolve?"
"Turns us into Digimon. The 6 of us have our own Spirits that allow us to digivolve into a Digimon. You hold the Spirits of Wind, Tomoki has the Spirits of Ice, Junpei the Spirits of Thunder, Kouji the Spirits of Light, Kouchi the Spirits of Darkness, and I hold the Spirits of Fire or Flame if you want to go Bukamon terms."
"Who is Bukamon?"
"A Digimon that traveled around with us when we first came here. He was the Keeper of the Book. The book told us almost everything about the Digital world that we needed to know. It was from this book, Ophanimon, and Seraphimon (spelling it as best as I can okay.) that we learned about the 10 Legendary Warriors. We can become these warriors with our spirits."
"You say there are 10, but you only mentioned 6. What about the other 4?"
"Well, they don't have human counterparts that we know of. The last elements are Wood, Metal, Earth or Ground, and Water. It was the 10 Legendary Warriors that defeated Lucimon the first time and we are going to try to defeat him again."
"That's why we are all here right?"
"Right."
"Wow. That's a lot on a bunch of kids shoulders." Izumi put her arms on her legs and rested her head on them and looked at Takuya, "You said something about needing my spirits to become Emperorgreymon right. How does that work?"
"Well, basically for me to become him you and Tomoki need to 'lend' me your spirits. I hold Wood, Earth and Fire in my D-Tector already so I don't need anyone else to give anything up. I use the 5 to become Emperorgreymon. Kouji needs Kouchi and Junpei to 'lend' him their spirits to become Mangnagarurumon." He explained as he watched her take all this information.
"This is like being in school again. I'm learning all these things again, but it is more fun to learn because I'm not in school. It was difficult getting through the last months of school not remembering anything I learned. It's like being in kindergarten all over again." She looked up at the stars, "At night I look up at the sky and wonder what my life was like before I lost my memory. When I woke up I thought I was dead. That when you die you go into this white room till you are needed again on earth, but when I heard my parents talking I couldn't figure out if it was real or just echoes in my head. In the few minutes I was first awake, I learned my name and that I had a brother and parents. I'm telling you, it's scary not know what has happened in you life. It sometimes keeps me awake at night. I get afraid that I would die without knowing who I am and what I used to be." Tears were now rolling down her face as she looked up at the sky. She then put a smile on her face, closed her eyes, whipped away her tears and shook her head. "Great, now I'm babbling on like the popular girls that made fun of me."
"You're not babbling Izumi. You are just speaking about what is on your mind. Now babbling, I can't imagine you doing that. You say things like they are. That's it." Takuya tried to cheer her up, "I'm the one that used to babble. I always did it when I felt it was too quiet among the group."
"Thanks for listening Takuya." Izumi smiled at him.
"It's something I had to learn to do here other wise this place would probably be in ruins. I never wanted to listen to anything or anyone when we were younger, I always had to do things my way. I didn't care what happened to myself tho'. At a few points I didn't even think of the others. Kouji had to help straighten me out on that part."
"Now you are babbling." Izumi giggled
"Uh yeah, I guess I am." Takuya scratched the back of his head smiling. "We'd better be heading back, we've got a long day tomorrow."
"I suppose your right." Izumi and Takuya got up and headed back to the shelter.
