Me: It's on the Chapter 3 in which...never mind. I can't say anything. I don't own "Everything Changes" from the 2BA Master CD, and I'm going to stop writing disclaimers for Digimon and Pokémon so if you wanna make sure I have one readers, check the author's note.
Amanda: Let's just get on with the story.
Me: Well you might like this chapter and it has a surprise ending.
Chloe: Which if course you're not going to tell us.
Me: (sarcastic) Oh, you're so smart.
Chloe: I'm gonna ignore that sarcasm.

"Chlooooeeeee! T.K.aaaaaaayyy!" Where are you?" The Digidestined had been searching for their missing teammates for about half an hour. They hadn't seen them since that teen girl had appeared before them. What had happened?
Sora looked worried. "I don't understand. Where could they be?"
"I don't know Sora but we have to keep looking," Tai responded. If anything happened to Chloe, he'd never forgive himself. He knew Kari and Matt felt the same as him about T.K.
A young couple soon entered the park. The man spotted them and called, "Hi. Sorry we're late." It was Jacob Sasaki and his wife Jacqueline, affectionately called Jackie by practically everyone. They were the newest Digidestined and bearers of the crests of Patience and Innocence. "Gail was making a racket so we couldn't leave until she fell asleep." Gail was their baby girl, about the same age as Sam. She had inherited Jacob's brown hair and Jacqueline's emerald-green eyes.
Jacqueline noticed the worried look on Kari's face. "Is something wrong?"
Kari nodded. "Chloe and T.K. are both gone."
"We've been searching but we can't find them anywhere," Cody explained to them. "It all started ever since this little girl appeared before us."
Jacqueline arranged herself next to Yolei. Jacob, however, remained standing and pondered the dilemma. "Why don't you contact that other world you told us about?"
"Hey that's not a bad idea," Oriana replied and she turned to Rioko. "Tell your dad to contact the Pokémon World. They might be there."
"Which region of the Pokémon World? Kanto, Johto, or that Hoenn Region?"
"Kanto duh. That's where Mr. Ketchum lives."
Rioko nodded and talked to Izzy about it. Crystal looked anxious. "Mom and Uncle T.K. will be okay won't they?" She looked at her father apprehensively.
"Don't worry Crystal," he assured her. "They'll be all right."
The comment didn't cheer Crystal and Mateo up too much. Hope and Keiji were worried too. "I hope so," Hope replied in a soft voice as Izzy's laptop (not the same yellow one) beeped and the screen portrayed an image of Ash. "What's up?" he asked.
"Ash, have you, Misty, Tracey, or Brock seen Chloe and T.K. anywhere?" asked Izzy. "They're missing."
Misty's face appeared on the screen. "We haven't seen them at all."
The look of disappointment on Izzy's face revealed the answer as to whether or not Chloe and T.K. were in the Kanto Region.
"What time did they disappear?"
"About half an hour ago...well, twenty-nine minutes to be exact." Izzy looked anxious. "Listen, are you sure they're not over there in your world? What if they landed in Hoenn by accident or something?"
"I doubt it. If they landed in our world, they would've contacted us by now. Poké Gears have a way of being heard over long distances."
Izzy held up Chloe's Poké Gear. "But Chloe's Gear is right here."
"Doesn't make a difference. She could simply contact us on one of the many phones surrounding our world or T.K. could still email us on his D-Terminal."
"Good point."
"Tell you what," Ash went on. "Misty, Brock, and I will head on over to your world and use our Pokémon to help search."
"That's not possible. We can only open the portal if Chloe and T.K. are with us."
Ash grinned. "No problem. You better stand back."
"Why?"
"Just do what I said."
Izzy stepped away from his computer and motioned for the others to keep away from it. A blinding flash of light emitted from the screen and it took the shape of a swirling portal. Ash, Misty, Brock, Arina, Kato, and Rocky emerged from the portal along with Pikachu. A Pichu rested on Arina's hat (Ash's old hat) and Kato was carrying a sleeping Togepi in his arms. Rocky had a Geodude next to him. The Pokémon trainers took one look at the jaw-dropped looks on the Digidestined's faces and burst out laughing.
"How...how did you do that?" asked Matt in awe.
Ash grinned broadly. "Since I'm the only person with a crest in the Pokémon World, opening the portal doesn't require a lot of power."
"Let's skip the talk and get down to finding them," Arina added.
Little Kato grinned. "Don't mind her," he whispered to his friends. "She wants us to hurry up so she can train more. You'd think she'd be less heartless."
"I heard that Kato!"
"Good. It was meant to be heard."
"KATO!"
West Shinjuku District (Tamers Dimension)
Shinjuku Park
After getting over the shock of Chloe's last name and figuring everything out about her and T.K., the Tamers settled down with their new friends. Kenta was slightly disappointed that the other Digidestined weren't there but he found both Chloe and T.K. interesting enough.
"I never did figure out what happened to everybody after the show ended," Takato said to T.K. and Chloe. "All I saw were Yolei and Ken ending up together as well as Matt with Sora, and I saw what kind of jobs you guys had. So what did happen?"
Chloe gave him a blank look because she had no clue what he was talking about. T.K., however, understood. "Oh, Izzy and Mimi got married and they have two kids. Joe and Cody married these girls named Jenny and Lin, and Davis hooked up with Catherine."
Now it was Takato's turn to draw a blank. Kazu gave him a "don't-you-know-anything?" look. "The French Digidestined?"
Chloe nodded. "Surprised me too." She stood up and started pacing up and down the area for some odd reason. Then she sat down and started rummaging through the pockets of her blue sweater.
"So you guys are Digimon Tamers," T.K. said to Takato. "What exactly is that anyway?"
"We're not that much different from you Digidestined except we use Modify cards to slash through our D-Powers to give our Digimon different moves, strength, speed, weapons, etc," Henry clarified intelligently. "If the enemy is a Digimon, we absorb its data if we want to. If the enemy is not, like some enemies we faced, we do what we can to destroy it."
T.K. grinned. "That's cool. Hey, how come I don't have much data on Guilmon on my D-3's Analyzer?"
Takato smiled. "I created him."
"What?"
"Oh, well you see...I drew him and the picture and attacks scanned into my Digivice. And he just came to life."
"Wow."
Guilmon smiled. "Do you like bread?"
T.K. frowned politely. "Uh sure. Why, do you?"
"Bread is the best thing in the whole world! Especially, Guilmon bread!"
T.K. glanced at Takato who laughed nervously. "I...didn't give him his personality. Y'see my parents own a bread shop and I have to feed him. And like they always say, nothing's as filling as nice, fresh, bread."
T.K. sweatdropped. "Uh...huh."
Chloe meanwhile, continued to search around in her pockets and her belt, but all she found were her Poké Balls. "Darn! I just remembered I left my Poké-Gear with Izzy. Can't you e-mail our friends T.K.?"
"I don't think so. I think we're in different dimensions so it'd be impossible."
"D'you guys have kids?" asked Kazu. "Any around our age I mean."
Chloe shook her head. "Crystal's only ten and Teo's about eight."
"Teo?"
"His name is Mateo," T.K. responded calmly. "We just call him by his nickname."
Chloe absent-mindedly used her telekinesis to summon a rock from nowhere. She plocked it against a nearby tree. The Tamers stared. "How did you do that?" asked Takato in amazement.
The woman looked confused and then brightened. "Oh you mean this?" The rock rose into the air and glided back to her. A gasp went through the group as she caught it. She laughed. "I told you I was psychic. That's how I already knew your names. I can read your minds."
"Wh-what? You read my mind?" Kenta was astonished.
"Oh don't worry. I usually don't do that unless I feel like it or if it's necessary."
Kazu sighed. "Too bad the other Digidestined can't come. Kari's pretty cute." T.K. glared while Chloe smiled.
"She's not cute like T.K.," Jeri replied pleasantly. T.K. groaned and Chloe's smile broadened. "Or Takato."
Takato blushed red while the others, especially Terriermon, snickered helplessly. "Stop it...what's so funny?"
"Look, it's Takato the Tomato!" Kazu choked between laughs.
"What?" The goggled Tamer flushed redder. "I'm NOT a Tomato!"
The others, including Jeri and Rika, laughed even harder. Renamon managed a grin. T.K. and Chloe couldn't help it; the laughter was contagious. "You have to admit, that's pretty funny," T.K. said.
"Not to mention accurate," added Chloe, giggling.
"Aw shut up!"
Your heart's beatin' around the clock
Time tickin' away, it doesn't stop
Evolution is takin' place
The world is spinnin' and changin' everyday
Anything you think of with a name
There isn't anything in life that ever stays the same
Odaiba District (Digidestined Dimension)
Odaiba Park
Ash and Arina landed Charizard after searching from the air. There was no sign of the missing pair anywhere at all. Mateo's lip trembled. "What happened to them?"
Keiji patted his shoulder. "Don't worry cousin," he said. "I'm sure we'll find our parents."
Catherine looked over at Davis, who was trying to use the D-terminal to email T.K. "Don't you think we 'ave already tried zat at least five times?"
"I know," he answered. "But unless anyone's got a better idea, I'm going to keep on trying."
Yolei looked up from where she and Jacqueline were playing with Sam and Gail. "Do you think they were transported to the Dark Ocean?"
"Oooh don't say that," Kari spoke softly. "I have enough memories of that place."
"We don't need to worry about it anyway," Ken added reassuringly. "That place can't get to us with no one controlling it—I hope."
(A/N: Read The Years Ahead because I don't wanna put a flashback)
Ash sighed and returned Charizard to his Poké Ball. As he leaned against a nearby tree, he noticed it was blinking faintly with white light. Ignoring it, he clipped it onto his belt with the other ones. They all started to glow. "Huh?"
"Hey Dad." Rioko looked at Izzy's laptop. "Isn't your computer supposed to be in sleep mode?"
Izzy nodded. Jomei now glanced at the screen with his sister. "Well I don't think it is Dad 'cause it's on and the programs are goin' haywire."
"What?"
Keiji noticed that his mother's D-3 was shimmering. "Uh, is it supposed to do that?"
Tai held his Digivice up. It was glowing and flashing light in all directions. "What's going on here?"
As if to answer him, the other Digivices and Poké Balls reacted to the light from his Digivice and sprang to life, showering beams of pallid light around them. The beams fused together to form a large white cage, enclosing them so they couldn't escape to the outside world. The Digidestined and Pokémon trainers stared around the walls in alarm.
Crystal buried her face into Tai's chest. She then stared down at her hands and screamed, "Dad! Help me!"
Tai looked down and saw his daughter dissolving like fine sugar before his eyes. "Crystal? CRYSTAL!" He watched in horror at her frightened face slowly disappearing. He whirled around and saw the same thing happening to Mateo. "MATEO!"
"Daaaaaddyyyyyyy!" wailed Mateo as he vanished.
Kari noticed the crisis at hand simply because her own children were dissolving. "Mom, we're scared. We're so scared," whispered Hope and Keiji before they were gone.
Arina slowly faded away like a wisp of smoke. "Look after my Pokémon Dad and don't..." Her voice faded away with the rest of her body.
All around them, their children were disappearing. Mimi hugged Jomei to her, much to his displeasure, but it wasn't enough to stop it. D.J. and Oriana grabbed each other's hands. Even Sam and Gail couldn't escape from the "disappearing doom". The Digidestined and the trainers tried to save them but the kids vanished before they could do anything.
Yolei began to sob and she buried her face in Ken's shoulder. Catherine clung to Davis, who stroked her blonde hair. The others were pale and scared as they gazed around the white walls of their somewhat prison. Brock moved around and then muttered, "We're moving somewhere."
"How can you tell?" Mimi looked at him curiously.
"I can feel it too," Joe agreed. "And something tells me we're moving pretty fast."
Jacob touched the surface of the "cage". It felt like light made solid...if that was even possible. "But how?"
"Who cares how Jake?" exclaimed Davis. "I think a better question is where."

West Shinjuku District (Tamers Dimension)
Shinjuku Park
"You're married to a Digidestined but that doesn't make you a Digidestined," Rika mused while looking at Chloe. "So what are you?"
Chloe smiled and took out a Poké Ball. "I'm a Pokémon trainer."
"A what?"
"Pokémon trainer. I'm from a world where creatures called Pokémon and humans live together in harmony."
T.K. nodded. "That's why I said she's not a Digidestined."
Takato looked interested. "Pokémon? Are they like Digimon?"
"Well not exactly. There are numerous differences, such as their names," Chloe explained. "And their attack power. Digimon rely on their partners or evolution stages in order to grow stronger. Pokémon rely on the power within their hearts and the faith their trainers have in them. When they evolve, they stay evolved and they belong to certain categories, no matter the species. So you might see a Dragon-Type, a Water-Type, and so on."
"That's cool," said Kazu. "Hey, do you have one right now?"
Chloe nodded and pressed the button on the Poké Ball to make it grow. She decided against using Dragonite because he might seem too overwhelming. "Poké Ball GO!" she yelled and threw it.
A blast of light flashed from the Poké Ball and when it settled, there sat a striking black creature with long ears. It had slanted red eyes with shiny black pupils and around its ears, body, and legs were gold circles that changed different colors. "Whoa!"
"Umbreon," the creature whispered.
"This is Umbreon," Chloe said. "A male Dark-Type Pokémon and one of the evolved forms of Eevee. Eevee is a Normal-Type evolution Pokémon that can become five different types when it evolves. Umbreon here is one of my strongest and favorites."
"He's so beautiful!" Jeri squealed. "Can he talk?"
The trainer nodded. "You won't understand him though. Pokémon can only, I repeat, only say their names—with a few exceptions like this annoying Meowth I used to know, Mewtwo, and some psychic Pokémon. Only a trainer who has a strong bond with his or her Pokémon can understand them."
"Do your teachers allow these— Pokémon?" asked Henry. He was stroking the top of Umbreon's head.
"Oh, when you become a trainer—meaning you're at least ten and eligible to get your license—you don't go to school anymore. You learn everything you need to know on your journey."
"What? You don't go to school anymore?" Kazu exclaimed. "Boy that's a life I'd love to have."
"Ditto," Kenta added eagerly.
Just then, a blast of blinding white light landed into the clearing. The Tamers and the two adults shielded their faces before staring at it in amazement. "What is that?" asked T.K. hoarsely.
The light faded away, revealing about more than a dozen adults. Most had fallen onto the ground and were busy getting up. The ones who hadn't fallen were taking in their surroundings. Chloe and T.K.'s jaws both dropped before exclaiming, "Guys!?"
The group of adults turned towards them and their surprised faces melted into smiles of relief. The Tamers eyed the adults critically before Takato realized who they were. "You're the...Digidestined."
"Whoa! Chumly's right!" Kazu shouted, his eyes as round as saucers.
The other Tamers couldn't help but agree. The people within the television show they used to watch were all real. Chloe and T.K. ran to their friends and families.
Tai was just thinking of asking Chloe what she and T.K. were doing in the strange place but his wife threw her arms around him and he forgot all he was going to ask. She pulled away and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "I am so glad you're here."
"Where were you guys?" asked Kari from her place beside T.K.
"Here. In Shinjuku."
"Shinjuku?"
T.K. nodded, then frowned. "Did you leave the kids at home alone?"
Kari's smile faded and she shook her head. "T.K., they're gone."
"What do you mean gone?"
Catherine looked sorrowful. "They just vanished on our way 'ere. We don't know if zey are okay or not."
Chloe and T.K. exchanged a worried glance. "There must be something wrong if they just disappeared," Chloe said telepathically to T.K.
"I know," he replied back. "But we'll handle it later. We have to think about the kids back there." He beckoned the Tamers to come forward since they were still standing nervously (and gawking) in the background. "Digidestined and Pokémon trainers, meet the Digimon Tamers. We're in a different dimension where Digimon is nothing except a card game or TV show, and these kids are the main heroes of the area."
"Digimon Tamers?" repeated Ash in disbelief. "And I thought 'Digidestined' was a weird name."
"ASH!"
"What?"
You take a chance, you throw the dice
You risk it all; it's just a part of life
You hold on tight, to what you know
You can't hold back, you've gotta let it go
Every little step that you embrace (every little step that you embrace)
One road ends, another begins
And takes you to a better place
Chloe motioned for Rika to come forward. "Recognize her? She was the girl in my premonition and the girl we saw today."
The Digidestined nodded. "This is Rika Nonaka," Chloe explained. "The cool-looking yellow fox next to her is her partner, Renamon."
Renamon bowed politely before the two groups. Rika just nodded once.
"The goggle-boy over there is Takato Matsuki, the leader of the Tamers. The dinosaur look-alike is his partner, Guilmon."
Tai raised his eyebrows. "Goggles huh? Anyone getting a sense of déjà vu?"
"Me!" cried Davis.
Takato smiled at the two leaders. "It's...really nice to meet you guys," he stammered nervously. I can't believe it's actually them! Guilmon waved in greeting.
"Next to Takato is Henry Wong, the smart one, and his wise-cracking partner, Terriermon," T.K. continued.
"What's up?" said Terriermon cheerfully.
Henry shook hands with Izzy and Joe. "Pleasure."
Chloe went on. "And the brown-haired girl with the...puppet...is Jeri Katou."
"Hello! Ruff!"
The older kids sweatdropped. Ooookaaaay. Jacqueline thought it was cute.
"That kid's Kazu Shiota next to Kenta Kitagawa—kid with the glasses."
"Whaddup dudes!"
"Hi."
"The little one is Henry's sister Suzie," T.K. finished for Chloe. "Oh yeah, and that's Lopmon."
Suzie smiled a dimply smile at the older kids. Lopmon managed a wave from Suzie's tight grasp.
"They already know all of our names except the trainers and Jacob and Jacqueline probably," T.K. added.
Ash, Misty, and Brock stepped forward. "I'm Ash Ketchum from Pallet," Ash introduced himself. "And this is Brock Slate and my wife, Misty Waterflower."
"Ash and I are Pokémon trainers," Misty added with an agreeable smile. "And Brock is a Pokémon breeder."
Jacqueline smiled placidly. "My name is Jacqueline Miyagi Sasaki but call me Jackie. I am the Digidestined of Innocence and my partner is Otamamon."
Her husband nodded. "I'm Jacob Sasaki and the Digidestined of Patience. My partner was really my relative's but since he's um...dead, I have him. My relative's name was Oikawa and my partner's, Datirimon." He grinned. "Jackie and I are the last Digidestined of the group."
The Tamers were surprised. Oikawa had relatives?
Ash remembered. "Oh yeah." He tilted his head at the yellow mouse Pokémon on his shoulder. "This is my personal Pokémon and best friend: Pikachu."
"Pikachu," Pikachu chirped cheerfully.
Jeri and Suzie squealed with delight. "Oh he's sooooo cute!" They immediately grabbed him and started petting him and tickling him.
"You've gotta be kidding me," Kazu muttered in disbelief. "What's so cute about a little yellow rat?"
"If you call him that again," Ash warned. "He'll fry your brains before you can say 'help me.'"
Pikachu giggled, "Pika pi pi pi." Man that's funny!
"What'd he say?" Kenta asked in confusion.
"'That's funny'," Chloe answered him. "I told you. You can't understand Pokémon language unless you develop a strong bond with your Pokémon."
Kari smiled at the Tamers. "We're all very glad to meet you kids but do any of you know what we're doing here?"
They shook their heads. Rika turned to her fellow group members. "Pretty weird seeing my dream come to life eh?"
Henry, Jeri, Kazu, Suzie, and Kenta nodded. Takato didn't do or say anything when he realized he was probably being rude. Just when he opened his mouth though, Rika stopped him. "You actually figured it all out Gogglehead. Nice job."
Takato shut his mouth and cast her a grateful look before turning back to the Digidestined and the trainers. "Um so...where are your Digimon?"
"Most of them are in the Digital World," Izzy explained. He picked up a sleeping Patamon. "But Patamon wanted to stay with T.K. for a while."
T.K. took his partner. As he did he suddenly remembered that extraordinary girl in his images. She had penetrating violet eyes. His gaze shifted to Rika who was talking to Renamon. She had violet eyes! As for the Tamers...he was almost positive they were the kids in his other vision.
Could it be? he wondered. Are my images becoming real?

"Gennai! There's something wrong!" called Agumon, bursting into Gennai's house.
Gennai turned around. He had been studying the prophecy for the last two days now. "What's wrong Agumon?"
"Some of the Digimon have been attacked!"
That was serious enough. Gennai didn't bother wasting time and asking questions. He just jumped in the Mekanorimon he rode around in and flew off, carrying Agumon with him.
After flying for a while, Agumon pointed at certain spot to land: Primary Village. Usually, the village was a normal peaceful place where baby Digimon were born or brought to life. However, it was also the most targeted place in the Digital World. "It's coming from down there!" the dinosaur shouted. "There's Elecmon!"
Elecmon was pacing back and forth, surrounded by fresh baby Digimon. He looked up as Agumon and Gennai landed. "It's a good thing you're here Gennai. Maybe you could help solve this."
"What happened Elecmon?" Gennai questioned the Digimon.
"Well yesterday afternoon, I was tending to the babies as usual. You know how it is when they hatch. Well there was one egg that was extremely bizarre. Actually, it wasn't even an egg. More like a blob of cubes and blue static."
Agumon looked puzzled. "Did it come from an egg?"
"That's the weird thing. I don't know how it got here. I checked all of the cribs but none of them had any traces of that stuff. I found it near the babies." Elecmon paused and then took another breath. "The funniest thing was that it kept saying on word since I found it. 'Missingno'. I've never heard that word before."
Gennai frowned. "Perhaps that was the creature's name. In this case, I don't believe it is from this world."
"Where do you suppose it came from Gennai?" asked Agumon curiously.
Before Gennai could answer, shrill screams cut through the air. "The babies!" shouted Elecmon and he dashed off, leaving Agumon and Gennai in a trail of dust.
(A/N: Well not exactly a trail of dust since the surface of the ground is made of soft bouncy stuff but you get what I mean)
"Agumon, stay with the babies here. I'll follow Elecmon," Gennai ordered, jumping into the Mekanorimon.
Anything you think of with a name
There isn't anything in life that ever stays the same
(chorus goes on and fades out)
When Gennai landed in the nursery part of the Primary Village, it took some time to adjust to the scene around him. Cradles had been overturned and some Digi-Eggs littered the ground. In the middle of the disarray was Elecmon, apparently at a loss for words. The babies around him were huddled together.
"Elecmon...what is it?" asked Gennai in concern.
In answer, Elecmon pointed up ahead of him. There was a large shimmering display of what seemed to be blue dots, cubes, and static. It was rippling like the surface of water. "Missingno," it hissed from the depths of his body. Its voice was that of a male, but it was filled with crackling static.
"What-do-you-want?" asked Elecmon in a quivering voice.
Missingno rippled again. "Must...destroy...all life..."
"Why? Why must you destroy innocent Digimon?" Gennai persisted.
"I...was created...by an accident...in a world full of creatures and humans...I was programmed...to do so..." The strange being known as Missingno seemed to laugh. "You think...you are stronger...than me? I have...powers...you wouldn't dream of..."
Missingno immediately began rippling faster than ever. As he did, a small vortex appeared. He disappeared into it.
"Where's he heading?" asked Elecmon weakly.
Gennai shook his head. "A place where he can cause more harm."
West Shinjuku District (Tamers Dimension)
Shinjuku Park
Chloe felt a strange sensation surging through her. It felt like electricity. She shook her head to shake the feeling off. "What's wrong Chloe?" asked Tai.
Chloe shook her head again. "I feel funny."
"Are your powers reacting?" Ash looked at her in concern. He knew the most about her psychic powers and their behavior.
"No...it's something else...something...different. It's a power I've never felt before." She blinked and clenched her hands. "Something's not right...something's just gone wrong."
"That is because...you haven't witnessed...my power," hissed a voice. "Do not test the limits of my power."
Everyone stopped what they were doing and gazed around the vicinity of the park. "Who said that?" Jeri whispered.
Ash thought about it. "You know, that sounded a little like what Mewtwo once said a long time ago to us...but it can't be him. He doesn't have a voice full of static and he trusts us."
"Besides," added Brock. "What would he be doing here?"
"Perhaps...you need proof of my power," the voice continued. "Allow me to demonstrate."
For a minute, all was silent. Then Chloe felt the electricity surge through her once again. This time, pain accompanied it. She doubled over and fell to the ground.
"Chloe!" Tai cried and he ran to her.
She raised her eyes at him. "Tai, get BACK!"
Just when he was about to reach her, a blast of wavelike energy blew him back a few feet. His friends caught him and watched in horror as Chloe began to glow with electric blue light until all of her features were hidden from view and all everyone could see was the light.
T.K. shouted, "Stop this! What are you doing to her?"
"Why don't you find out for yourselves?"
Blue light surrounded T.K. and the other Digidestined and they fell to all fours, glowing with blue light. The trainers also began to glow as well as the luminosity engulfed them. The light around them vanished a few seconds later and they got up painfully. Chloe landed on the ground with a soft thud.
Tai knelt down beside her and that's when he noticed something different. "Oh my..." he began and then yelled, "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?!"
Everyone stared at Chloe from their own positions. Her long black hair hung loose and tumbled down her shoulders from beneath a golden headband. Her skin was lighter and her outfit was entirely different: a long pale blue zippered jacket with a high collar, stretchy black bike shorts, and strange shoes. What shocked them the most though was the fact that she was smaller and younger, barely older than fifteen. "She looks...like a teenager!" said Kari in alarm.
Tai's outcry must've woken her up because she slowly got to a sitting position. "Uuhhh, I don't feel so good," she mumbled groggily. Unlike her adult voice, her new tone sounded lighter, less maternal.
The Tamers were shocked and confused...well some of them anyway. Kazu couldn't stop staring. "She's pretty," he mumbled in a dazed way. "She'd top any teenager around here."
"I'll say," Kenta agreed while wiping his glasses to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
Tai glared at them. "Knock it off!"
"Sorry."
He turned back to Chloe who was staring at him. Her extraordinary eyes were more noticeable than ever. "What happened Chloe?" he asked her. "What made you younger?"
"Before you say anything," she responded. "You better take a good look at yourself."
Curious, Tai chanced a glance down at his hand. He noticed how different it looked, smaller and lighter. "Oh no!"Alexis: Oh no is right! A new evil has been released, the children of the Chosen Ones are gone, and now something's happened to the Digidestined and the trainers as well! Can things get any worse?...probably. Stay tuned!
Me: The Missingno Virus doesn't really do all of that but I wanted it to do more than just glitch up a Pokémon game. Seth Turtle is among those who use Missingno for another purpose besides the video game so I'll give him credit.
Amanda: I know what happened to you guys.
Rika: (sarcastically) Good for you. We kinda know too.
Me: By the way readers, I apologize heavily for not updating sooner, but my parents are moving to a different Internet account so I havent been able to have Internet for the past week and days. I know its an excuse, but really, its the truth. Review if you want!
