Chapter 3

Finally the screen lights up and the images of eight Digimon. There were two rookies, two champions, two ultimates, and two megas. With him were Ray, Oro, Fenir, and Mane.

"Thank you for sending those files to us. We're sending in an expert to try to recover more files. This plan of that the GL plans on doing is most grievous." Says one of the champions. He nods and then says, "This base was getting ready to evacuate. The commander of this base was a mega by the name of Slash. I interviewed one of the eight high-ranking officers; he's also the only one to survive." He pauses, he see that on the other end some of the Digimon were thinking about that. Then he continues, "This is quite big and I was hoping that we could perhaps send a message to Davis. I think that they will help us in preventing this plan." He waits to hear from the group on the other end. "We'll speak to Cassandra and Dash about your idea, Guyver. Tomorrow the expert will be portaling in. Good night." One of the rookies says. He nods and then turns off the screen.

He turns to look at the others in the room. "Get some rest. I believe we'll need it." He says and everyone but Ray and Oro leaves. After everyone leaves Ray asks, "Do you think that Davis and his friends will make a difference?" He looks at Ray, and then nods, saying, "I do, they are highly resourceful. I do not doubt any of you and the other human's achievements, but they've been through a lot and done things that we can't believe. They could truly help turn this plan around and maybe gets rid of the GL's hold on all of their realities. Go and get some sleep. You can tell the rest of your unit about this tomorrow." He tells Ray and Ray looks at him and then nods. "Thank you for talking to me about this." Ray says before he walks out the door. He sighs and hopes that the other Stalkers see why Davis, Takato, and their friends were important.

--------------------------------------------------------

He wakes to Lucemon, Calamon, and Guilmon looking at him. He was human at the moment and he just blinks at the faces in front of him. "Ok, … Did you want something?" He asks after about a minute of silents. Lucemon grins and answers, "Guilmon Bread." He notices that Guilmon and Calamon nod their heads in agreement with the champion. He then says, "Can I have time to get dressed?" Lucemon looks embarrass at that, he says, "Sorry, still not use to you needing to get dress, Takato." "It's ok. I'm not use to being human around you, too. Go to the kitchen and wait for me, ok?" He asks the group of Digimon, they nod and do as they were told.

He watches them leave and gets out of bed. He looks around and sees Davis and Henry still sleeping. He head to his pack and takes out a green T-shirt with tan symbol of fire on it. He takes off his shorts and puts on a pair of blue jeans, shocks, and shoes. After grabbing his goggles, D-ark, and deck, he checks to see if his bracelet was still on. He then heads out of the room and down the halls to the kitchen.

As he walks through the keep, he finds it really odd. For when he lived here, he was a Digimon and it was kind of different walking around as a human. He thinks on what happened last night and knows that many things were going to be happening in the times to come.

He walks through the doorway and finds most of the kitchen staff waiting with Calamon, Guilmon, and Lucemon. He blinks and then begins to order around the waiting Digimon. He notices that they just grinned at him and did what he told them. Soon they were making Guilmon Bread, plus cream puffs. He supervised the groups of Digimon, also keeping an eye on Calamon and Guilmon. For they did try to eat some of the dough or some of the newly made Guilmon Bread. He didn't have to worry about Lucemon though. Lucemon was above all that, at least for the moment anyway.

He wakes to find Ken already awake. He looks to where his twin was still sleeping and gets out of bed. He then walks over and asks, "Hot bath?" Ken looks over at him and nods, "I can use one too. Grab some cloths and I'll lead the way. How's Wormon?" He looks over to where Ken's partner was sleeping. "Fine, he wasn't that hurt. I guess I should have stopped and waited. I guess it was only natural that the guards were more then a little spooked." Ken says as he goes through his pack, taking out the cloths that he wanted to wear. They finish and he leads Ken to where the hot pools were.

Leaving their cloths in the changing room, they soak in the hot water. They just relaxed, and he had missed these pools. There was one for males and another for females. He then hears Tommy, Izzy with Tentomon, and J.P. come in.

Soon they enter the pool and relax. "This place is really something. Where we come from, there's not a place like this keep or the lands around it. There's so much to learn. I'm glad that I came." Izzy says. "I hope that this will get you away from you computer for a while, Izzy. You really shouldn't spend all your time in front of that screen." Tentomon says. "I'll make an effort to spend shorter amount of time while we're here, Tentomon." Izzy tells his partner. "I guess that's a start." Tentomon says.

They didn't say anything for the next while. They just didn't feel like talking. He thinks about last night, he heard about what happened when Ken and Stingmon got too close to the gate.

He arrives with Davis and his two partners on his back. He finds the other grouped around someone. Davis, Kage, and Sky get off and he transforms back into a human. He picks up the rope and head to the group. He waves to his brother when Kouji turns to look at him. Kouji waves him over; he makes his way to his younger brother. Then looks to see Stingmon getting checked out by Henry, Izzy, and Ken. "What happened?" He asks Kouji. "It seems that Ken was the first one here, and the guards that were on guard duty thought that Stingmon was going to ram the gate. So they attacked and Stingmon got injured. Izzy was the next one to arrive and stopped a bit back. Tentomon dedigivolve and then walked over. The guards then realized that what happened and when to report. I arrived about the same time Takato, Henry, Guilmon, and Terriermon. Calamon was with Ken, we can't find the little guy, and it seems that he took off." Kouji tells him.

They hear the gate open and Lucemon walking through the gate with an Astamon. "Hey, sorry about the mix up. I'm Lucemon, and this is Astamon, he's a doctor." Lucemon says as he walks pass the gate. He sees that everyone that haven't seen Lucemon before were now staring at him. "Thanks for coming to greet us Lucemon. Long time no see, huh?" Takato as a human says as he walks over to Lucemon. Lucemon looks real close at Takato and then says, "I almost didn't recognized you, Takato! And I guess I thought you'd still be Drakemon. Hey Guilmon, nice to see you again, too." Lucemon says as Guilmon walks over to where Takato was. Guilmon nods and then they turn to look at Astamon.

"He's not seriously hurt. He'll be fine with a good nights rest." Astamon says and they all breathe a sigh of relief.

He was happy that Wormon was fine, and happy to see Lucemon was doing alright. He wonders just if Takato was up. He decided not to worry about it. He'll see Takato at breakfast.

--------------------------------------------------------

She looks over at Nabiki and her new partner. EmeraldBiyomon was sitting on Nabiki's right side, looking at the food in front of her. She could tell that the green Digimon didn't know what to make of the food, for like all of the Dire's children the virus rookie didn't need to eat food to get energy.

"So, you put it into your mouth and chew it. Then when it's in little pieces in your mouth, you swallow it?" EmeraldBiyomon asks Nabiki. Nabiki nods as she chews her pancakes. After swallowing what's in her mouth, Nabiki says, "You don't need to eat anything if you don't want to, Emerald." Emerald was short for EmeraldBiyomon, it was a mouth full to say the whole name, so Nabiki gave her partner a nickname.

Emerald looks relieved about that. So they ate their breakfast in silents. After they finish their food, Zoe and her began to take the plates into the kitchen. She had tried to phone Ranma, only to find that Ranma had gone to meet up with Trace and the others that they have recruited. There were about five hundred sixty-nine totaled humans partnered with Digimon that were Dire's children. None were mega level Digimon though. Dire has yet to make one or let any Digivolve to mega. About two hundred Digimon partnered with a human could Digivolve into either Champion or Ultimate or both if that Digimon was a rookie.

Now here they were, and they couldn't get a hold of Ranma. She really didn't know a lot about Nabiki Tendo, for Nabiki didn't really connect with too many people. She still remembers the stories that her cousin Ranma told her. Takato and her still though of Ranma as a cousin, even if they weren't blood related. They both knew that Ranma didn't really know any of his real relatives. They didn't mind that Ranma wanted them as relatives for they saw that it means a lot to him.

She had to wonder what Lucemon was like, for Takato had add that Digimon onto his list of relatives. From what Takato and the Legendary Warriors say, Lucemon was angel Digimon with eight wings as a rookie. As a champion, Lucemon stood over five and half feet tall, Lucemon wears a light blue hoody, with the silver symbols of Star and Eclipse with white jeans. Lucemon has red highlights and has a darker shade of blue. Lucemon's wings were tinge gold by the edge of the feathers. She really didn't know if everything she heard of about Lucemon was true or not, but she might one day get to meet Lucemon.

She snaps out of her thoughts as she finishes the dishes. "So, you want to go swimming?" She asks Zoe. After two minutes Zoe answers, "Why not. I bet that they're in the hot pools back at the keep right now." She looks at Zoe with a raised eyebrow, "Hot pools, mmmm … that would be nice. O well, time at the poolside wouldn't be a waste of time. I think Suzie will be thrilled to go, I don't know about Rika though." She heads to where Renamon was. Zoe goes to see Suzie; they figure that Nabiki and Emerald need more time alone. She finds Renamon watching the sunrise, Gatomon was close, her partner was having a catnap.

For a minute she wonders just what T.K. was doing, then shook her head. T.K. and she knew where they stood with each other. She wasn't ready and T.K. had enough girls that would like to date him. She's been asked about him while going to school here. She answered each and every girl that asked her about him. She couldn't blame them for asking, if she felt ready, she wouldn't mind going out with her best childhood friend. And she had once asked Rika about what she thought of T.K. and her dating. Rika had looked her in the eye and told her that it was up to both T.K. and her. She had felt better after that.

She asks Renamon, "Do you think Rika wouldn't mind coming with us to the pool, Renamon?" Renamon looks at her and says, "I don't know, Rika's in the Dojo." She smiles and nods, "Thanks, Renamon." Renamon nods and she heads into the Dojo.

She finds Rika reading a book. "Hey Rika. Did you want to come with us to the pool? We're thinking that Nabiki and Emerald might need more time alone. So, want to come?" She asks the Tamer. Rika looks at her and then nods her head. "Nothing really here to do. I could do nothing pool side." Rika says. She had gotten to know Rika over the last few months. This seems to be Rika's way of down playing the idea. She smiles and heads back into the house.
