Chelsey sat at her computer. Right now, she was busy chatting to her good friend Kacie. From what Kacie told her, Jana was standing next to her, staring at the screen. Chelsey just smiled and shook her head. As she was typing a responce to something Kacie just said, there was a flash of white light on the screen. Chelsey didn't even have time to cry out and then, she was sucked into the computer, which automatically shut down after she was gone.
::End flashback::
"So that's how you got here?" Joe asked. The 5 year old nodded. "But our adventures are far from over, we hadn't even landed in the Digital World yet..."
::flashback::
And she fell, fell for what seemed like hours. She could see two other girls falling a little further ahead, but couldn't find her voice or courage to call to them. And finally, the end of their fall came. One by one they dropped out...and landed on the next's back. "Kacie, get off me." "Whoever you are, get off of me." Chelsey obeyed and the three girls dusted themselves off. "Where are we?" "Kacie!" "Jana!" two small creatures came bounding up. It was hard to describe them. One was solid white with a few stripes and spikes on her back. The other was almost box-like with a tail. She also had a white horn on her head, orange body with a single violet stripe on her back, and a violet tipped tail. She also had fangs.
"Kacie! My name is PitchAlimon. I've been waiting for you for a long time." "Jana! My name is Puchimon and I've been waiting for you too." The two girls picked up the two small creatures and turned to the other girl. She only sighed and sadly shook her head...until another one came bounding out. This one was tanish with a bit of fur sticking up on her head. She had black eyes and two small fangs, as well as two short arms and legs. "Chelsey! Call me Fangmon, everyone does. And I've been waiting for you forever." Fangmon leapt into the 15 year olds arms. She just tilted her head to the left and looked over at the two girls. "Hey. I'm Chelsey. And I'm sure I know you two..." "Chelsey?" "Yep. That's me."
Kacie and Jana took a step forward. "Chelsey...oh, it's so nice to see you face-to-face." "Yeah. Now Aunt Nancy can trust you because we got to know each other." Kacie just smiled, then said. "Come on. Let's get moving. First things first. We gotta find our crests."
::End flashback::
"You already knew about the tags and crest?" Joe asked. The 5 year old nodded again. "Yep. Oh man, we had so many adventures looking for those crests, but it'd take all night and well into the morning to tell you everything. So I'll just tell you about happened when we found our crests..."
::flashback::
They came to a cliff. Just below it were statues. "They look like the DigiDestind." comented Kacie. "That's because they are the DigiDestind." PitchAlimon stated. "The DigiDestind that defeated the Dark Masters!" Puchimon added. "And they're still here." chimed in Fangmon. That made the three girl's hearts skip a beat. The DigiDestind? Here? "They are?" Jana backed up a couple of steps in shock. "Yes." "That can't be..." Jana took one step back too many and suddenly, she wasn't on ground anymore...
She plunged downward and fell right for the shrines of the DigiDestind. With a thud, she landed on the one of Izzy, much to her dismay. "Izzy!" but as she was getting up, the was a glow and something appeared from the statue's forehead. A crest... "Why...It's the crest of peace..." whispered Puchimon. They all stared in awe. The very first crest had been revealed. Now it was time to find the other two...
::End flashback::
"So then what?" "Well...Kacie found her crest next...In one very bad situation...Caused by me..."
::flashback::
The three DigiDestind girls walked down a long trail. Their Digimon, now Murizumon, DemiAlimon and Cheetahmon, walked alongside their partners. "When can we rest?" "Come on, we just rested a couple of hours ago..." Chelsey complained. "Is it our fault you don't tire out as easily as we do?" Chelsey glared mildly at her two friends, but said nothing. "Alright. We'll take a little break." Kacie and Jana both sat down on a rock. Chelsey, too full of energy to sit still, went on a walk to check the surrounding area. She stopped when she stepped on something soft and fluffy, but realized it belonged to something that was alive because there was a scream of pain.
Chelsey instantly lifted up her foot and looked down. It looked like a tail. A grey tail...A grey tail that looked very familiar to her. Then... "Electric stun blast!" The next thing she knew, a tingling feeling was spreading throughout her body. She quickly collapsed. The Gazimon smiled. "Teach ya to mess with my tail!" "Hey. I didn't know it was there. I swear I didn't." "Get ready, human. You're about to be in a world of hurt. A lot of hurt!" He laughed, then prepared for another attack. Chelsey yelped, closed her eyes and braced for the blow, but it never came.
"Claws of fury!" Slowly, Chelsey opened her eyes. Cheetahmon stood in front of her, blocking the path of the angry Gazimon. "So you want some too? We'll there's plenty for all! Electric Stun Blast!" Cheetahmon, however, leapt to one side, dodging the attack. "Chelsey!" The next thing she knew, Kacie and Jana were helping her to her feet. "Let's get outta here!" And they ran, Kacie was in the lead. She ran...straight over a hill and into a thicket of thorns. She was unhurt. Chelsey and Jana, along with their Digimon, followed. They too were unhurt. The Gazimon stopped on top of the hill, too cowardly to follow.
"Come on. Crawl ahead." They did so, then the saw an object in the ground ahead of them. Kacie brushed away the dirt to reveal a symbol. It glowed, the slipped into her tag. Kacie smiled. "No we just have one more to find..."
::End flashback::
Joe couldn't help but laugh. "Led you into the thorn bushs, eh? That might've been something I would've done..." Chelsey just nodded. "We wandered a long time, looking for my crest. It took so long that I thought there was no crest for me. But then one day..."
::flashback::
The three girls walked along a pathway. "Still no sign of Chelsey's crest..." Kacie said. "Will you two just give it up? I have no crest!" Chelsey protested angrily. "Every DigiDestind has a crest." Jana answered. Chelsey just sighed and shrugged. Why couldn't they give it up? They came to a large rock, so they decided to rest. Chelsey once again wandered ahead to check the surrounding area. Cheetahmon was following her this time. "To keep you out of trouble." she said. Chelsey just shrugged. Finally, they came to a stop. There was a lot of trees. Without a word, she climbed up on of them to get a better look at the surroundings.
"What do you see up there?" Cheetahmon called up to her. "Ocean and tons of trees and..." she squinted, looking. "A swarm of Flymon!" Sure enough, the bee-like Digimon were coming straight for her. She leapt down and both she and Cheetahmon bolted. The Flymon gave chase. "Deadly sting!" the Flymon cried out. One by one, stingers came hurling at the DigiDestind and her partner. However, the two were quick enough to dodge. Finally, the Flymon lost sight of them and just flew straight...going right past them... They both sighed.
"See what I mean?" "Don't remind me I always get into trouble..." Chelsey answered. But as she was turning to walk back towards where Kacie and Jana were waiting, there was a glow from behind her. "Huh?" she turned. A symbol appeared, then floated closer. Her tag flew up, and the new crest slipped inside, before the tag fell limply beack where it was...
::End flashback::
"So you finally found your crest, huh?" Chelsey nodded. "Yeah. And you wouldn't believe how happy I was to feel like I wasn't left out..." She stopped talking when she heard another voice. "Oh puh-lease. Do you honestly think we believe you?" Chelsey and Joe both looked to see who it was. It was Tai. "Where's your proof?" Chelsey pulled out her crest for him to see, but Tai didn't look conviced. "Great stories though. You have a really big imagination." With that, he turned and walked away. Joe shook his head and looked down at the young DigiDestind. She was so hurt by Tai's words, she looked like she was about to cry...
To be continued.
Yeah. Sorry this took so long, but I finally got this chapter finished. I'll start on the next one as soon as I can. Hope you like it.
