Me: ok...no idea what i'm gonna put in this chapt. soooo...if it sucks BLAME MY CRAZY MIND. takes deep breath ok on with the fic

After Matt, Joe, TK, Kari, Gatomon, Gabumon, Gomamon, Patamon, and Agumon returned from thier unsuccessful search for the new evil (A/N: and don't worry I won't keep calling it the new evil, SHE has a name) Genni told them of some info he found on the Heir. As it turns out, the Heir is the source of light in the digi and real worlds.

"But I thought the source of light was Kari," Gatomon said. Genni nodded.

"It is not unusual for you to think of it that way, but Kari is only the keeper of light, while the Heir actually is light." Genni stated.

"I don't get it, I mean how can a person like us actually be light. I mean it really doesn't make a lot of sense to me," Gomamon said.

"I knew this was going to be hard to explain," Genni said shaking his head sadly, "but you see thousands of years ago, the Heir of Light was choosen by the higher beings of that time to protect the digital world, along with nine gardians much like you digidestined, as well as...," Genni trailed off for a second, "another...one that turned evil. The Heir all those years ago...is the past life of the Heir of present day. But, again, we don't know who they are because it was so long ago. But one thing we do know is, that the Heir can be brought to darkness and then the balance of light and dark would be thrown off completely. That is why it is at the up most importance that we protect the Heir from the darkness at all costs." he finished.

"But how is a being such as the Heir chosen?" Izzy asked, fascinated by all that was being said.

"Well," Genni trailed off, "the Heir shows all the properties of each crest as well, even though he is closer to one, more than the others.

"So could it be one of us?" Joe asked. "I mean how do we even know how to find him if you don't even know who he is." "He could be ANYONE!" Joe finished. Gomamon put a paw (A/N: or fin or whatever it is lol) on his friend's shoulder sensing his friend's stress.

"Yes, indeed he could be one of you, that would explain why the Heir is closer to one of the crests than the others. After all, each of you show the properties of the crests, and you are closer to the one that you own." he finished," but there are another things about the Heir; such as he has silver eyes. There are more, but I fear the only one who knows more would be the Heir himself, but I will look through some more of my ancient books and prophecys, but in the meantime you must find him." Everyone let out a small groan, now they had to save Tai, fight the source of all evil, and find the source of all light and protect him from darkness.

"Well if we're planning on doing all this stuff then we'd better get started," Kari said trying to lighten the mood. Gatomon let out a small laugh.

"You sounded like Tai just then." TK said laughing a little himself.

After Tai awoke from seeing Sora the night before, he didn't feel as alone as he did before. He leaned his back against the wall, his chest hurt too much to fully sit up. He thought about Sora and her amazing fiery eyes. Many times he had gotten lost in those eyes, but he could never admit that he liked her more than a friend, or at least not outloud. Tai smiled a little, he remembered how sad she had been when he told her he didn't know anything, and when he gave her his crest for the time being, how her face seemed to light up. It's kind of weird, that he liked his best friend, even though he's known her forever, but deep in his heart he knew it was not just a crush. But his thoughts were interrupted by footsteps coming toward him. Again, the door opened and sent light into the room, nearly blinding Tai, who had been in darkness for so long, and a figure wearing a cape stepped inside.

"Hello Courage it's been a while," Tai knew that voice, it was the voice that haunted his nightmares and tortured his being.

"Myotismon," he hissed, narrowing his eyes even further. Myotimon chuckled.

"Yes, yes I'm back, although you and your friends never really destroyed me." he smirked. With that he roughly grabbed Tai's arms and tied them behind his back. Tai clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, the pain in his chest felt like flames he couldn't put out.

"What do you want with me," he asked angrily. Myotismon chuckled again and tightened the ropes that bound Tai's wrists together.

"What I want is all of you destroyed, but my mistress has other plans for you. He grinned an evil grin and shoved Tai out the door into the the light. Tai blinked a few times before getting his vision back. He was led though the seemingly endless corridors and stairwells until they reached a door that practically screamed darkness and death. It was black with blood red jewels dotting it's polished surface. Myotismon turned the handle of the bronze doorknob, which had a symbol of an cresent moon and star on it. Tai thought about the symbol; it seemed strangely familiar to him although he had never seen it before, but his attention was taken off the symbol and placed on the menacing digimon in front of him. She was about as tall as Myotismon, and had blazing red hair the color of blood. She wore a black long sleeve shirt with a jagged design where it met her wrists, and a black skirt that went down to her knees revealing her stomach, along with knee length black boots. Her wings looked exactly like Lillymon's except they were red, and she wore a black helmet similar to Angewoman's, only you could see her eyes, which were also blood red and seemed to pierce into your very soul, her eyes were the worst part about her. She put on a small smile when Tai walked into the room, and she stood up from her black throne, which had 2 skulls at the end of each armrest.

"Welcome to my home bearer of Courage," she said grinning evilly."I am Emprissmon, the digimon of absolute darkness and evil." Tai kept his stare cold. "Oh, and in case you were wondering why you're here it's because," she started, walking towards Tai and placing a cold hand on his shoulder, which made him shudder slightly, "you have immense power Tai, more power than you realize, and it's that power that I want." Tai saw that she was glaring at him now.

"What are you talking about mistress, this is the boy that is more powerful than you," Myotismon asked, shocked that probably the most powerful force ever was a digibrat. By now Tai was completely confused.

"What are you guys talking about?" Tai asked still trying to figure out what Myotismon meant about him being more powerful than this ultimate evil.

"Why you don't know who you are do you?" Emprissmon asked. "You are the greatest force of light there is in both our worlds. You are the Heir of Light," she said smiling evilly again.

"I'm who?" Tai asked.

"You have the greatest amount of power within you, even if it is light, and I want it. So we can do this the easy way or the hard way take your pick." she said, her eyes looked like they were on fire, with her glares. Tai was still trying to allow his brain to catch up with all Emprissmon had said.

"If I really do have all this power, I would never give it to you," he said furry in his voice. As soon as those words left his mouth his eyes flashed that same color of silver they had when he glared at Piedmon and Myotismon the day before. Myotismon gasped again, but Emprissmon smiled.

"Have it your way then," she smirked, and then she pulled out a long black whip that looked a lot like a bunch of vines entwined together with thorns reaching out of them almost begging to tear flesh with their curved tips. Tai winced, as Myotismon cut his hands loose and stepped back from the upcoming battle.

"This is going to be very painful for you Heir," Emprissmon said smirking," but I will be enjoying every blow." She continued smirked.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Sora cried. She was sitting with the others in the main room of Genni's house when she felt so much pain in her chest and back she couldn't take it, and collapsed on the wood floor. Biyomon was at her side in a flash, putting a feathery wing on Sora's arm.

"Sora!" a chorus of voices cried as they ran to her side.

"Joe what's wrong with her," Matt asked as Sora let out another agonizing cry.

"I don't know," he said looking at her worriedly. Sora let out small gasps, she opened her eyes now that the pain had lessened.

"Are you ok Sora?" Kari asked, looking at Sora, who's breathing had quicken to lessen the pain.

"Oh my god," Sora whispered, she grasped Tai's crest which was still hanging around her neck.

"Sora what's wrong?" TK asked when he saw the horror in her eyes.

"Guys," she started, not exactly sure how to tell her friends what she just felt,"I...I just felt what Tai was feeling, only my pain was only half of what he was feeling." Gasps echoed from each digidestined.

"But Sora weren't you in a lot of pain right now," Patamon asked. Sora nodded.

"More than I've ever felt," she said in a half whisper.

"And you're saying Tai was feeling twice that," Agumon asked, his eyes wide. Sora could only nod.

"Hmm... how do you feel Tai's pain exactly?" Tentomon asked.

"Man, this is no time to ask questions like that, Sora was just in a lot of pain, so let's let her relax for a sec," Matt said. He knew Sora was one of the ones hit the hardest after Tai was captured, and he doubted that she wanted to talk about how she felt his pain. Sora put a hand on Matt's shoulder, she knew what he was doing, but she also knew her friends might have an idea.

"It's ok Matt, I'll tell him," she said, knowing she would have to eventually. She took a deep breath. "I have a bond with Tai,a strong one, we can literally feel each other's pain, but I'm not exactly sure why."

"Then couldn't you just ask Tai where he is?" Mimi asked. Palmon nodded seeing where Mimi was going with her words.

"I already have, but he doesn't know." She replied sadly. That's when she heard a voice in her head Emprissmon it whispered. "Tai?" she said aloud, now everyone was looking at her. Sora the great evil's name is Emprissmon, tell Izzy. Sora listened carefully, hearing how weak Tai was. "Izzy!" she cried after Tai had left her mind. "The great evil's name is Emprissmon."

"What!" Izzy exclaimed,"how do you know this?"

"Tai just told me, but he sounded too tired to tell me anything else," she replied. Izzy was already typing on his computer, by the time Sora stopped talking.

"Found her," he said happily,"Emprissmon is the ultimate digimon of darkness, she nearly destroyed our world, the digital world, and many others, during a great battle against good and evil. She is a Multi-Mega digimon, and her attacks are Thorn Strike, Rose Dart, and Scarlet Mist."

"Multi-Mega?" Tentomon asked,"I thought the highest you could digivlove is Mega."

"Maybe there's another stage that you can digivolve to," Izzy said looking at his partner and friend.

"Or maybe only powerful beings, like Emprissmon, can reach it," Gabumon implied.

"That makes sense," Palmon said,"I mean it would explain why none of us have ever heard of it." Everyone nodded.

"So that means that only the Heir's digimon can destroy Emprissmon?" Joe half asked half said.

"I think so Joe (A/N: hehe that rhymes)," Izzy replied. "She must be extremely powerful if she's past Mega, and until we find Tai again, I doubt Metal Garurumon could destroy her by himself."

"So we have to come up with a plan to get Tai back, after all he would do the same for us," Sora said a small smile tugging at her lips.

"You know I'm with you Sora," Biyomon said taking a few steps toward her friend.

"Right," Agumon said walking next to Biyomon,"let's go get Tai back!"

"Hmm...these digidestined are becoming a nuisance," Emprissmon said as she tapped her fingers against her looking glass, which sat next to her throne. "How I'd love to crush them into dust, but these children seem to mean much to you, Heir." She said looking at the unconscious form of Tai, who lay in a puddle of his own blood. She chuckled evilly."They really think they're going to pull off the greatest rescue in history," she said smirking, as she stroked her looking glass with her palm,"HA that's a good one." She turned her attention back to Tai, and grinned wickedly. She snapped her fingers, and three shadowy figures appeared before her. "Myotismon, Piedmon, and Devimon, I want you to capture the digidestined, but do NOT harm them I want them alive to help me turn the Heir evil."

"But Mistress," Devimon stammered," wouldn't it just be easier to kill the boy rather than turn him dark."

"NO FOOL," she yelled angrily,"KILL HIM AND HIS POWERS WILL DIE WITH HIM!" she took a deep breath, "the Heir's power with my partner's will be impossible to overpass." She again grinned darkly when she saw the three dark masters shuddering."A great warrior attacks neither body nor mind, but instead they attack the weakest part of human and digimon alike, the heart," she said starring back at her looking glass,"and the Heir's heart is with these digibrats, as you call them." She returned her gaze back to the three before her,"Now do as I have said." With that the three disappeared to do her bidding.

"We'll see if this will break your spirit Heir, for you still have the strongest spirit I have ever felt, and trust me when you've lasted as long as I have, you sense quite a few of them. But everything has a weakness, and your spirit is no exception." With that she let out a dark and evil laugh that shook the castle's walls.

All the digidestined were getting ready to leave, they figured that actually looking for Tai would be a lot better than sitting around and relying on Izzy's computer to find him.

"Angewomon, do you think we'll find Tai, and if we do, do you think he'll be alright?" Kari asked, obivously worried about her brother. Angewomon smiled.

"Oh of course Kari, you're forgetting your brother has the crest of Courage, he'll be ok," she replied. A weak smile planted itself on Kari's face.

"Hey are you guys ready to go?" TK asked his friends.

"Yep," Kari said smiling.

"Grisley Wing," everyone spun around in time to get a face full of bat wings. Everyone cried in surprise from the familiar attack.

"Myotismon!" everyone cried as they saw the figure looming above them.

"Triumph Sword," another voice cried, Matt ducked just as the sword nearly struck his head. Everyone turned their heads from the bats to the dark clown standing before them.

"Piedmon," Sora said remembering Tai's chest was bleeding the last time she saw him, "You're the one who hurt Tai!" she yelled fury in her eyes.

"You are correct digidestined," Piedmon said grinning evilly."But if you are truly that worried about him, I'd be happy to escort you there." Sora gasped If I go with him I'll be able to see if Tai's alright. But she knew she couldn't do that and she wouldn't, at least not without a fight.

"Biyomon digivolve," she looked at her friend. Biyomon nodded.

Biyomon digivolve to...Birdramon, Birdramon digivolve to...Garudamon

"Come on we've gotta help her," Palmon said.

Gabumon warp digivolve to...Metal Garurumon

Palmon digivolve to...Togemon, Togemon digivolve to...Lilymon

Gomamon digivolve to...Ikkakumon, Ikkakumon digivolve to...Zudomon

Tentomon digivolve to...Kabuterimon, Kabuterimon digivolve to...Mega Kabuterimon

Patamon digivolve to...Angemon

Gatomon digivolve to...Angewomon

"Alright, go get them guys," Agumon called, wanting to help, but he knew he couldn't.

(A/N: ok so they all attack now, like I said before i don't want to write down ALL the attacks so bear with me)

Piedmon dodged them all, and then let out a cruel laugh,"Oh please, do you really think I came back without knowing what you'd do." He smirked, now it's my turn,"Dark Mist." A thick, smokey cloud of mist floated out of his palms, clouding the digidestined's vision and flooding their lungs with thick smoke, making them cough and gasp for clean air. Sora looked around and saw Matt covering TK and Kari from the harmful smoke, Mimi lay near him coughing, Izzy was on the ground opposite of her, Joe lay across from Mimi. It was getting harder and harder to breathe, and by now half the digidestined had gone unconscious.

cough "Matt cough what are we going to cough do." She cried.

"I cough don't know everyone else cough is unconscious." He yelled back. Suddenly Sora felt something wrap around her waist, she looked down and let out a small cry as she was being pulled out of the cloud of smoke by Myotismon's lightning whip.

"Hmm... Bearer of Love, I'm not sure why the Heir is closer to you than the others, but we'll find out when we get there, shall we." Myotismon grinned evilly.

"You've found him!" Sora yelled, her anger and shock disrupting her better judgment.

"Yes, but I thought you knew that." he said still smirking.

"Myotismon!" Piedmon yelled from the ground, "you and Devimon take the children back to the castle, I'll take care of the digimon."

"Devimon too!" Sora said. She was shocked to find out three of their worst enemies were alive and even more powerful than before.

"You called," Devimon said from behind Myotismon and Sora.

"Yes, You and I will take the children back, while Piedmon takes the digimon," Myotismon finished. Devimon nodded and swooped down into the clearing smoke, and came back carrying Joe, Mimi, TK, and Matt. Devimon handed Mimi and TK to Myotismon, and then went back down to gather Izzy and Kari. Piedmon had already gathered all the in-training digimon who also lay unconscious.

"Why did you keep me awake," Sora asked a cold glare in her eyes as she looked at all her friends.

"As I said before digidestined you are closer to the Heir's heart than any of the others, and we were ordered to keep you awake, so Emprissmon could see the look on your face when you see the Heir himself." he finished. Sora was beyond confused. First of all how could she be closer to the Heir when she's never met him, and secondly what did Myotismon mean by the look on my face when I see him? Questions zipped through her mind like lightning bolts.

But one stuck out in her mind: is Tai alright, and will the others be alright too? Sora was so deep in thought she never saw her and Tai's crest glowing around her neck.

Tai sat with his hands tied behind his back, feeling, not only pain in his chest, but pain in his heart too. He knew that Emprissmon had sent Myotismon, Piedmon and Devimon to capture his friends, to get to him. He just hoped they were alright, he hung his head and let and let a single tear escape his brown eyes, but he quickly wiped it away with his shoulder. If they hurt his friends, he swore Emprissmon would regret it. The door swung open, Tai looked up the light causing his eyes to gleam, but he kept them as cold as ice.

"They've successfully captured your friends Heir, and are heading back now." Emprissmon said smiling when she saw Tai's eyes flash that same color silver."What do you say we go meet them, oh and don't worry they're only unconscious, well except the bearer of Love." Again Tai's eyes flashed. Emprissmon smirked. She roughly pulled Tai to his feet by grabbing his neck, he whimpered slightly from the pain that increased when she touched him. After she had battered him to what seemed like no end, his whole body ached, and scars would soon line his arms, chest and back. She pushed him out the door, and toward the throne room. Every now and then he winced because of the ache in his legs. When they finally reached the huge black door, two Phantomon greeted her, and then cut the ropes on Tai's hands and chained him to the wall next to Emprissmon's throne. The doors flung open and Piedmon entered. "I put the digimon in the cell Mistress," he said eying Tai.

"Good, now send in the others," she said motioning at the door. He nodded and opened the door, revealing Devimon and Myotismon holding the seven digidestined, all unconscious, except one.

"Tai!" Sora cried. She cringed when she saw how hurt he looked, his shirt was soaked in blood and his face had minor scratches around it, but his eyes held horror as well as happiness.

"Sora!" Tai cried, happy to see she was alright, but as he looked at the others he realized that although they were unconscious, they weren't hurt, which relieved him. Emprissmon noticed the happiness in the two's eyes, and snapped her fingers.

"Take the other's to the Heir's cell, except her." she said pointing to Sora. Sora gulped, but they let her go, and Tai's chains disappeared and released his arms from the wall. As soon as they both were free they ran to one another and hugged.

"Tai I was so worried about you," she whispered in his ear.

"I was worried about you too," he told her.

"Aww...how touching," Emprissmon said smirking. Sora still held onto Tai, afraid that if she let go he would disappear again, and looked into the eyes of true evil. "but I have important measures to speak with you two, bearer of Love, you know that you are the closest to the Heir, correct?" Sora nodded.

"But what do you want with Tai?" she asked angrily, slightly stepping in front of him.

"Oh, don't tell me you don't know," Emprissmon let out a wicked laugh, "and I thought you digidestined were the nightmare of all evil digimon, but you really don't know who he is." She continued laughing as she snapped her fingers. Sora looked at Tai, who had a sad look eyes, but for a brief second she thought she saw his eyes go from their chocolate brown to a warm silver, but she shook her head, and decided to ask him later what she meant.

"Yes Mistress," two Phantomon asked when they showed up.

"Take these two to their friends," she grinned evilly at Tai.

"Yes Mistress," they said in unsion, they put Sora's hands behind her back, but before Tai was lead out of the room, he turned his head around and glared at Emprissmon, who was still chuckling.

"I swear Emprissmon, if you hurt them you will regret it," and with that his eyes flashed again, and the doors closed behind them.

me: That chapter probably took me the longest to do...but i gotta admit it was worth all the time it took ). So...will Tai tell Sora about him being the heir or will they find out the hard way, by Emprissmon, and will the other 6 digidestined be alright. and what happened to their digimon? well keep reading to find out.
