(Tommy)

"Tommy…Tommy WAKE UP!" Agunimon was shaking me wildly.

"Huh…?"

"You've got to transform and put out the fire!" Lowemon exclaimed wide-eyed.

Right…the ring of fire around us. I remember the way Cherokeemon lashed out at me. Then I was really awake. "Cherokeemon—what happened to Cherokeemon? And Surenomon!"

"Cherokeemon took out Surenomon with the last of her strength, it doesn't matter right now, if this fire keeps on going it'll burn down the entire city!" Kazemon exclaimed impatiently.

"Right." I nodded and transformed. Then using the last of my strength destroyed the fire, leaving a giant ring of ice around us. I sighed out of relief. It was better than having fire around us. Then the climate dramatically changed. It was freezing cold! I'm sure since my element is ice the cold is less effective on me also.

"N-now to take down the ice…." Agunimon announced, shivering. Then he took a deep breath and launched a pyro tornado all around the perimeter, melting the ice to water, which flooded the streets greatly. Kazemon and Lowemon hid JP and Kai's bodies once again to the people around us eagerly watching.

"You are what are called—digimon?" A reporter asked. Then all reporters came swarming around us. "Aren't there 7 of you? Where are the other two? Beetlemon and Cherokeemon? Can we see them? Oh, you're hiding them? How do you all do it? Please, can you tell us more about these 'digimon'?"

I wished Kai was awake, she'd know what to do in a situation like this….

(Kai)

My stomach was bursting with pain along with my head. I could barely walk I was in such pain. It had to be Surenomon's 'mind playing'. There was no way this was a normal disease.

As soon as a came through the door, beat up and dirty, Hilary gasped.

"Oh my gosh Kyleigh, what happened!" She exclaimed, rushing to my side to help as a lean-to. At home they used my full name so they couldn't get confused with me and the other Kai.

"Is Kai home yet?"

"No…but he will anytime now. We should get you cleaned up before he does…." Hilary helped me to the bathroom.

"What happened?" Hiro noticed us in the bathroom cleaning a scratch I had on my right shoulder.

"Yeah Kyleigh, lately you've been coming home with injuries." Hilary dabbed at it with a cloth. Then I remembered I had forgot my medicine in the alley….

"It's nothing." I explained as if it explained everything.

Then I heard Ray's gasp. "Whoa, did you get in a fight with someone 30 times your size or what? I always thought you could fight for yourself…."

"I can!" I objected. How was I going to tell him that I had been battling someone—something 30 times my size! Maybe even more! "I just…fell." And it was the truth, I had gotten the injury when I fell on the road. I had a way of telling the truth but hiding something else.

"You were always pretty coordinated…." Hilary mused.

"You're holding your head, do you have a headache?" Hiro knelt down beside me as Hilary applied some medicine to my wound.

"A major one too…."

"I'll call Max to tell him to stall Kai." Ray announced. Daichi and Tyson must be with him too because there was no way Max alone could stall clever Kai.

"I just want to lie down…." I said weakly. Hiro helped me to my room while Hilary presumed to washing the dishes.

As soon as I lay on my bed I went to sleep. Battling digimon and balancing homework and keeping it all a secret…wasn't easy.

"Kyleigh…." Kai was at my side, and glanced at my arm with the bandage on it. "What happened?" He held my head in his arms tightly.

"It's just a scratch…but I have a really bad head ache…." I explained weakly.

"Are you sure you're ok?" He whispered in my ear.

Then something in my mind made a flash and I saw a silhouetted figure smoking and drinking at the same time…and as the silhouette grew clearer it turned out to be….

"Fine." I whispered back then fell back to sleep.
