Chapter 3: Wives and Monster Angels

Warrior DigiDestined World: Location: The Minamoto House

It started off as just another normal day for Kosei Minamoto. He woke up, got ready for work, ate a simple breakfast of eggs and toast, wished his wife and son a good morning, went to work, worked until noon and came home for lunch. When he got home he greeted his wife, Satomi, and sat down to eat while he listened to her tell him about how her morning had gone.

"Where's Koji?" Kosei asked when he realized that his son was absent from the table.

"He went to a friend's birthday party," Satomi said, smiling. "He left about two hours ago to meet up with some of his other friends before heading over."

Kosei nodded, with a small smile of his own. He was glad that Koji finally had some friends to hang out with. Because of his job as a business management consultant for Hadami Enterprises, Kosei had to move his family around a lot and, as a result, over the years Koji had learned to always keep others at arm's length, never allowing himself to make any real friends, just a bunch of acquaintances. But six months ago Koji brought over a couple of other children his age and introduced them as his friends. One in particular stuck out to Kosei; a brunet boy by the name of Takuya Kanbara. He was Koji's most frequent visitor, often dropping by to meet up with Koji on their way to school. They were in different classes, so Kosei didn't really know how they had met, but he was glad to see that Koji had finally made at least one good friend.

After he finished his lunch he kissed Satomi goodbye and headed back to work. He had a meeting at 1:30 and didn't want to be late. He made it back to his office with plenty of time to spare, got all of his presentation notes together and headed to the room where he started setting up. Today's meeting was about time management. It was not one of his favorite subjects to present to new employees since most of them just blew off whatever advice he'd given them by the end of the week, and he'd most likely have to have a similar meeting scheduled again a few months later when it became a real problem for the supervisors.

When the last man finally took his seat in the meeting room, Kosei made a point of turning off his cellphone in plain view of everyone and placed it on the table. Some grumbled, but they all followed his example. Kosei smiled. Turning the phones off and putting them in clear view on the table was Satomi's idea. She'd suggested it when Koji wouldn't stop texting with his friends during dinner one night. This kept most of the room's occupants from playing with their phones during the meeting and from the look of this bunch – all grad students fresh out of college – it was a good practice to maintain. He'd have to bring it up with the group's supervisor who was sitting in the back on the opposite side of the long table from him.

The meeting was actually going quite well for Kosei. It seemed like Hadami Enterprises had finally hired some motivated workers. At least half of them had taken notes and most – if not all – had asked questions. Just as Kosei was closing up the meeting there was a knock at the door.

"Uh, sorry to interrupt, Mr. Minamoto," a nervous looking temp bowed. "But… you really need to see this."

Kosei was rather puzzled, but he quickly dismissed the meeting and followed the temp back up to the floor where he had his office. A large group of his co-workers were gathered around the TV in the waiting area with the customers.

"What's going on?" Kosei demanded.

A small woman jumped, startled, but she quickly calmed herself, looking at him sheepishly like a child who'd been caught with her hand caught in the cookie jar.

"Mr. Minamoto," she breathed. "I'm so sorry about this, but…"

The woman gestured to the screen and Kosei felt himself drawn forward. Nervous coworkers stumbled back and pulled confused customers out of his way.

"Koji," Kosei breathed, his heart tightening as he watched what appeared to be his son falling through a dark abyss by himself.

"Sir!"

Kosei finally snapped out of his daze and saw one of the men that had attended his meeting earlier. The young man was carrying Kosei's forgotten cellphone and it was ringing. Kosei immediately snatched his phone back and flipped it open, ignoring for the moment the fact that it should have been turned off.

"Kosei Minamoto here," he answered out of habit. He expected to hear Satomi's voice, but instead he heard a different woman speak.

"It is time," the voice said. "Do you wish to see Koji Minamoto again?"

"Who are you and what have you done with my son?" Kosei demanded angrily, startling those around him, including the floor supervisor who'd come over to see what was going on.

"Take the 3:20 outbound train to Shibuya station," was all the woman's voice on the phone said to him before the cell went silent.

Kosei gripped his phone angrily, glancing up at the screen where Koji was still falling. He knew that he had no choice but to follow the instructions he was given.

"Mr. Nishimura," Kosei said, turning to the floor supervisor. "I'm afraid that I must leave. My son…"

He glanced helplessly at the TV screen again.

"It's all right, Kosei," Mr. Nishimura nodded. "Saki Kisuke can cover for you."

The small woman next to Kosei nodded.

"I hope your son's alright, sir," Saki bowed her head.

Many others in the room offered similar sentiments as Kosei hurried to leave. When he got home, he found Satomi vacuuming the living room. Even if she'd gotten a call like he had, Kosei doubted she could have heard it over the noise.

"Kosei!" she exclaimed, shutting off the vacuum when she spotted him in the doorway. "You're home awfully early. Why-!"

"Get your coat," Kosei ordered. "We've got a train to catch. Koji's been kidnapped."

Satomi gasped, but quickly hurried to do what her husband had told her. Kosei filled her in on what was happening on their way to the train station. Poor Satomi was shaking in her seat the entire time. They boarded the train and waited for the next call. Satomi fidgeted the entire time, cleaning her glasses until they were spotless. When she was done, she noticed the beautiful blond woman sitting across from her. She was speaking worriedly in another language to the man next to her. Satomi didn't know the language, but it sounded like Spanish or something. The couple sitting next to them also looked worried, and were staring at their cellphones like Kosei was. Satomi jumped in her seat when her cell, Kosei's and the cellphones belonging to the two couples sitting across from them rang at the same time.

"Get on the elevator at Shibuya station. Press the button for the lowest level. There will be a train waiting for you there," a woman's voice said out of all six phones before hanging up.

Satomi stared nervously at Kosei. He looked like he was going to break his phone if he continued to hold it so tightly.

"Mi scusi."

Satomi jumped again, looking wide-eyed at the blond woman sitting opposite her.

"You got a call too?" the foreign woman asked softly.

"Yes." Satomi nodded. "We were told to take this train if we ever wanted to see our son, Koji, again."

"Koji?" the man sitting next to the blond woman said. "You wouldn't happen to be Koji Minamoto's parents, would you?"

"Yes." Satomi nodded again slowly.

"We are Zoe's parents," the man announced. "I'm Kita Orimoto and this is my wife Bianca."

"I'm Satomi and this is my husband, Kosei," Satomi said. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you."

Satomi knew Zoe. The girl sometimes stopped by the Minamoto house in the mornings to walk to school with Koji and Takuya.

"I wish the circumstances were different," Bianca said, smiling sadly.

"Excuse me," said the woman sitting on Kita's other side. She was a well-rounded woman with a pleasant face.

"My son knows both Koji and Zoe. Don't tell me they're missing too," the woman fretted.

"Too?" Kita blinked.

"Our son is JP," the built man next to her informed the other parents. "We got a call about him like you did for Koji and Zoe."

When the train finally arrived at the station they got off and onto the elevator as instructed. As it descended, the elevator suddenly shook a little bit and they all realized that they were going below the actual train station. The door opened to an underground set of tracks where, as promised, a train waited for them. They boarded the only car and waited.

"When will this train leave?" JP's mother – Jackie Shibayama – wondered after they'd been seated for five minutes.

"There must have been other children that were taken as well and their parents are on their way here now," Kita Orimoto said reasonably.

The other five parents shared worried glances. Just how many children had been kidnapped?

A few minutes later – just as Kita had assumed – two other couples, two boys and a lone woman joined them shortly before the doors finally closed and the train departed for their unknown destination. Kosei was shocked to see the Kanbaras who had brought their other son, Shinya, with them. The other couple, the Himis, had an older boy accompanying them who could only be Tommy's older brother. It seemed that for some reason only Koji and his new friends had been taken. The woman who had come alone with the two families froze when she made eye contact with Kosei. Kosei stiffened his posture when she took a hesitant step towards him. It had been years since he'd seen her, but she still looked the same as she had when they'd last seen each other, just a little more frail and sickly looking.

"Kosei," the woman gasped softly.

"Tomoko… I didn't think I'd be seeing you again," Kosei said sadly.

Satomi gave him a questioning look, but she'd apparently made the connection on her own. Koji's resemblance to his biological mother was strong.

"Darling," Satomi said weakly. "Is this-?"

"Yes," he sighed. "This is my ex, Tomoko Kimura. Tomoko, meet my wife Satomi."

"It's a pleasure to meet you," Satomi said, smiling weakly, not wanting to be rude. This was Koji's birth mother after all.

"The pleasure is all mine," Tomoko said, smiling back pleasantly. "I've heard a lot about you from Koji."

Kosei straightened up, a dark look stealing over his features.

"You've seen Koji?" he demanded. "When?"

Satomi and the others in the car looked at each other nervously. No one wanted to be in the middle of a former lovers spat when there were children at risk, but in the confines of the one train car there was no avoiding it.

Tomoko looked shocked by Kosei's reaction, and frankly so was Satomi.

"Every weekend for the last six months," Tomoko answered. "One day Koichi brought him over for a visit and ever since, the two of them meet up after school with some friends and sometimes come over for the afternoon until I come home from work. He didn't tell you?"

"Who is Koichi?" Satomi asked.

"Koji's twin brother," Tomoko answered slowly. "Didn't Kosei tell you that Koji was a twin? I admit that when we separated, Kosei and I had agreed that it would be better if the boys didn't know that they had a twin brother with the other parent so that the divorce would be easier on them. But when Koichi brought Koji to see me I thought that you had decided to tell Koji about Koichi after all and somehow got them to meet, but if you didn't tell Koji about Koichi… how did they meet?"

Satomi was trading confused glances with Kosei when the train came to a sudden stop.

"You have arrived," the woman's voice from the phone said over the train's COM system. "Please exit the train and go up the stairs to the floor above. I will meet you there."

The spat was temporarily forgotten. Everyone was in such a hurry to get off the train and up the stairs the woman had talked about that no one had noticed that the "train" was actually a living creature. Waiting for them up those stairs was an unusual sight. A woman with long blonde hair in green armor over a white dress with golden metal wings stood before them. The only part of her face that was visible under the helmet was her mouth and chin. Strange, perhaps, but she was still a beautiful sight to behold.

"Who are you?" Satomi heard the Kanbara's little boy gasp. "Are you an angel?"

"More like an angel of war," the older Himi boy muttered under his breath, but the strange woman smiled.

"My name is Ophanimon," she said in the same voice that they'd all heard on their phones and on the train. "I am an angel type Digimon."

"A Digimon?" the little boy repeated. "What is that?"

"Digimon is short for Digital Monster," she explained. "I am not from your world, which is why I had to bring you here. Follow me please."

Yuriko Kanbara had to restrain her son from taking off after the strange digital monster woman.

"Wait!" she cried. "You said that we should come here if we wanted to see our children again! Where are they?"

Ophanimon paused.

"Gone," she sighed. "They were summoned to a different Digital World. Come with me and my friends and I will try to explain to you what has happened."

"Does that mean you know my brother?" the two boys asked in unison.

Ophanimon smiled.

"I do. Takuya Kanbara and Tommy Himi came to this world with Zoe Orimoto and JP Shibayama on a train very much like the one you all rode on to get here. Koji Minamoto arrived on a separate train but joined up with the other four later. As for his twin brother, Koichi Kimura arrived here under… unusual circumstances. It was in this world in the midst of battle over the fate of this world that all of your children met and became friends. What were months for them here in this world were merely a few hours in your world. Come with me and I will explain everything in further detail as to what happened then and what is happening now."

They all followed her up the continuing steps. It was a long climb for the worried families before they finally reached the top where a grand castle stood with its gate open, waiting to receive them. Satomi looked around bewildered. There were numerous strange creatures hurrying across the sprawling lawn and they all bowed as they passed their angelic-looking host.

"Lady Ophanimon," a deep voice called out.

Satomi clutched at Kosei's arm when she saw this large pink and yellow… bunny… clown… thing float over to the angel Digimon.

"Lord Cherubimon," Ophanimon nodded. "What news?"

"The children have arrived," the big… Cherubimon said. "They are not alone. It seems that chosen children from other worlds were summoned as well."

"How many?" Ophanimon asked.

"Including the six Legendary Warriors?" Cherubimon mused. "Thirty in all."

"Hmm…" Ophanimon frowned before continuing toward the castle doors.

"My Lady!" Ophanimon hardly glanced up as a cat sphinx like… Digimon monster landed beside the angel. "Some of the children have woken up. Lord Seraphimon wishes to know how you want to proceed."

"I have the Legendary Warriors' parents with me now. Have him come meet us. He can explain the situation best. Lord Cherubimon, could you monitor the children's progress and alert me should any situations develop?"

"Of course," Cherubimon nodded with a smile, taking off once more with the sphinx Digimon hot on his heels.

"This way," Ophanimon said, gesturing towards a long hallway on her left. There were no doors except for one at the very end.

Satomi hadn't left Kosei's side once since they'd arrived at the underground train station, but now she gazed curiously around the long hall that they now traveled down. She wasn't the only one. Many of the others were looking as well. Spectacular murals of these Digimon creatures were painted on the walls that rose to cover the dome ceiling as well. They depicted a great battle of some kind, but without someone to tell her what was painted, Satomi couldn't make much sense of the beautiful brush strokes. She could sense that the paintings told of a great evil and forces of good clashing again and again until they came to the end of the hall where everyone came to a stop before a set of double doors. Satomi gasped. The mural at the end surrounding the doorway was the only one that made any sense to her whatsoever.

The backs of four human children – a small boy and a blond girl on the left side of the doors and a tall thick set boy and a rather lanky boy on the right – faced them raising some strange objects up into the air that were shooting out beams of light to two human figures shrouded in light and flames covered in strange symbols above the doors.

"Takuya," she heard Shinya gasp as he spotted this last section of the mural.

"Koji," Kosei whispered softly beside her.

Satomi took a better look at the two children painted above the doors and held onto Kosei's arm even tighter. Both Koji and Takuya had their arms outstretched as the beams of light coming from the four children below hit them.

"This depicts the time the six Legendary Warriors… your children, combined the powers that they were given to defeat a great evil. This is only one of the many hallways and rooms that were painted in homage to the six that saved this world. We call this the Unification Hall after what is painted in this mural. Please step inside. Through those doors, you'll find rooms that you can stay in during your time here and until we can find a way to bring your children back."

Through the great doors Satomi noticed that they had come into some sort of meeting/common room. Office tables and chairs filled one half of the room facing dozens of monitors that covered almost every inch of the wall surrounding a large viewing screen. The other half of the room looked like it had been taken out of a resort of some kind. Plush lounge chairs and couches were grouped around coffee tables before a large fireplace that took up one-third of the wall it was set into. A pair of doors were on either side of the fireplace that led – as Satomi and the others would find out later – to a hallway of doors that were attached to bedrooms and other living spaces. To Kosei, it was as if he were on another one of his business trips.

"Please, take a seat," Ophanimon said, gesturing to the long tables on the meeting room half of the space. The families did as they were told and waited, nervously glancing at all of the blank screens. Once everyone was seated, the double doors that they'd entered through opened once more and admitted a large fully armored humanoid being with angel wings.

"Sorry I'm late, Lady Ophanimon," it said.

"Lord Seraphimon," Ophanimon nodded.

"I assume these are the families of the Legendary Warriors," Seraphimon said, nodding his helmeted head at those seated at the tables before them.

"They are," Ophanimon confirmed.

"Then let us not waste their time," Seraphimon stated before addressing those gathered and launching into an explanation of what the six missing children meant to this strange other world that the visiting humans now found themselves in. They learned that they were now in The Digital World – or Digi-World, as it was called by its inhabitants – and that six months ago Takuya Kanbara, Koji Minamoto, Zoe Orimoto, JP Shibayama, Tommy Himi, and Koichi Kimura had been summoned to save it. They were told that their children had now been called upon to perform their roles as the Legendary Warriors once more in a different Digital World, many dimensions and realities away from their own along with several other chosen children from other versions of their human world. The main viewing screen behind Seraphimon lit up during his rather quick explanation and showed the families various video recordings of their children's adventures in the Digital World that they found themselves in today. Everyone finally knew the reason behind the sudden friendship that had formed between their children and Kosei, Satomi and Tomoko finally knew how Koji and Koichi had met, though Seraphimon had been rather vague on the circumstances that had brought the twins back into each other's lives. The digital angel obviously felt that it was a personal issue and simply kept to the facts.

Once he was done explaining past events, Seraphimon – aided by Lady Ophanimon – began to move on to explain the current crisis.

"As I told you, your children are not in this Digital World, but another far beyond our reach," Seraphimon said gravely.

"We are able to monitor their movements however," Ophanimon added. "Lord Cherubimon-!"

"My Lord and Lady!"

Everyone turned to see the double doors thrown open to admit the sphinx creature again.

"What is it, Nefertimon?" Ophanimon demanded.

"We have a situation," Nefertimon said grimly. "We lost the connection shortly after you arrived. It came back online a few minutes ago, but now the Warrior of Light is in trouble."

"Show us," Seraphimon said urgently.

The main viewing screen lit up again showing Koji hanging precariously from a frayed line of cable. Kosei, Satomi and Tomoko rose out of their seats in alarm and many others gasped.

"Get us the feed covering every child in that room!" Ophanimon ordered.

"Yes, my Lady," Nefertimon bowed before leaving the room.

"Get Flymon, Renamon!" a girl's voice echoed out of the surrounding speakers. It sounded as if the girl was in the room with them all.

"Diamond Storm!" a woman's voice cried off-screen, making everyone watching wonder what was going on since they could only see the limited view provided by whatever was monitoring Koji's movements.

"Good work as always," the girl's voice said smugly.

"TK!" another girl's voice cried desperately over and over again, but there was no response to her cries.

Finally the main screen split up so that it showed the viewers four other children; two blond boys – one of them unconscious, a red-haired girl and a brunette girl.

The conscious and older looking blond asked how Koji was doing as he still dangled from the frayed cable.

"Never better," Koji grunted as he tried climbing.

He slipped, however, and just barely managed to grab hold of the cable again before its length ran out. The brown-haired girl had screamed as he fell and Satomi and Tomoko – who were seated next to each other – gasped and clasped each other's hands in their worry, finding comfort in each other even though they hardly knew the other. A few minutes later Koji attempted to climb up the cable again, but this time he seemed to take even more care while climbing it. The older blond boy and the two girls called out words of encouragement to him until Koji finally made it safely to a ledge in the wall. After catching his breath, he scared his viewers when he launched himself into a cable cluster nearby, swaying dangerously from them. The three other children on the screen and the gathered families waited, holding their breaths. When he finally got up into the cables, he leaned back and seemed to relax momentarily.

Everyone let out huge sighs of relief. Koji chuckled nervously, agreeing wholeheartedly with the sentiment of the three children that were apparently somewhere above him. Three minutes later he was on the move again, traveling across a long cable that stretched from above his section of cables to above the younger and unconscious blond on the opposite side of the room. Kosei didn't know whether he should be angry with his son for putting himself repeatedly in danger or proud that Koji was trying to help the other boy.

The three spectators on the screen and the fourteen in the Frontier Digital World prayed that Koji knew what he was doing. Koji had finally reached the unconscious boy when his cable suddenly snapped in his hands. With a gasp Koji fell and nearly landed on top of the very person he was trying to help. The blond's body slid backwards off the cables, but Koji somehow managed to grab hold of his shirt collar and heft him back up next to him and balance him. Koji's own balance was thrown off after that and he was suddenly holding on by his arms. Tomoko and Satomi held each other by the arms and Kosei griped Satomi's shoulder as they anxiously watched Koji try to hoist himself up again, but his arms quivered from exertion and looked like they didn't want to work.

"Koji!" the red-haired girl called out above him. "Hang in there!"

"What does she think I'm doing?!" Koji's voice gasped exasperatedly.

"TK!" the brunette girl cried. "TK! Please answer us!"

"TK!" the older blond called out. "C'mon, wake up!"

In spite of their cries, the other boy remained unconscious.

"Kari!" A different boy's voice suddenly called out off screen.

"Davis?!" the brown-haired girl gasped out.

"Go get them while I get TK and that other guy," ordered the unseen boy's voice.

Suddenly the screen added two more channels next to the other five.

A girl with lavender hair wearing glasses was riding a flying beast and was on her way over to Kari, the red-haired girl, and the older blond.

An auburn haired boy wearing goggles had whatever Digimon he was riding pull up under where Koji was hanging and charged it at the opposite wall. He used the wall to spring off of with a bounding leap, and grabbed Koji while passing by just as Koji began to lose his grip. The beast bounded off the nearest wall for a safe landing and the goggle boy helped Koji down.

Satomi and Tomoko let out relieved sighs and hugged each other. Kosei watched his current wife interact with his ex, relieved that they seemed to be getting along. He'd been uncertain of how the two would get along even though he knew that both women were kind and caring and weren't known to take violent action.

"Thanks," Koji gasped, sinking gratefully to the floor, bringing his parents' attention back to the situation at hand.

The unknown boy gave him a tight smile before wheeling his mount around again for a second run in order to get the TK boy who was quickly slipping off the cables again now that Koji wasn't there to keep him balanced. He made the same pass, but had overshot his trajectory. The boy gritted his teeth, before throwing himself off his Digimon's back as they sailed over the section of cables. There was a chorus of gasps from the monitors and the watchers alike as he landed swaying in the cables and TK began to fall. The boy's hand shot out and grabbed TK's, but caught the unconscious boy awkwardly. The parents watching shuddered as they saw the shoulder twist and set itself at a weird angle. There was a snapping sound and the boy let out an agonized scream that brought TK back to consciousness.

"Whoa!" the blonde cried when he saw the long drop below him. "Did I miss something?"

"I'd say," the other boy gasped through gritted teeth.

"Need a lift?" the lavender haired girl asked as she pulled her flying Digimon up underneath TK and the goggle boy.

"Thanks, Yolei," TK sighed as the other let him go, dropping him neatly behind the girl on the Digimon's back.

The injured boy let his arm hang limp in the air as he waited for Yolei to return for him.

The parents watched as the girl set TK on the ground and came back for the boy that had rescued him and Koji. When they landed, the girl called out for someone called Joe.

A teenage boy with long navy hair on Koji's screen turned from where he had apparently been looking TK and Koji over and hurried to the injured boy whose arm was held up stiffly and at an odd angle by his side.

"I think his shoulder was dislocated when he saved TK," Yolei explained.

Apparently this Joe person had some medical knowledge and Kosei watched approvingly as the teen began to gently prod the injured shoulder. The boy that had rescued Koji and TK winced several times, but he didn't yell or cry, even though he looked like he wanted to.

"Yup," Joe finally sighed, making a pained face. "It's dislocated alright."

"Can you relocate it Joe?" a different redhead from the one before asked.

"Yes," Joe said slowly. "I've done it once before at the clinic I'm interning at, but it'll be painful. It's twisted out of its socket so I'll have to re-twist it and then pop it back in place."

The injured boy closed his eyes, but a hand gently gripped his good shoulder. TK and the Kari girl had come into the screen. They appeared to be a couple.

"Thank you, Davis," TK said meaningfully, finally giving the watching Frontier DigiDestined families the name of the brave rescuer. "You saved my life."

"Bandana boy was doing a pretty good job before I showed up," Davis said.

"His name is Koji," Kari told him softly.

"Yeah, Koji," Davis said, nodding distractedly.

"It's not like they've been introduced," everyone in the room heard Yutaka mutter none too quietly.

Koji came up behind Kari to offer his thanks as well.

"Thanks for helping us out up there. I was in real trouble for a moment."

"No problem," Davis shrugged, before grimacing. It hadn't been the smartest thing to do with an injured shoulder.

"Alright everyone," Joe sighed. "Give us space. I'm going to reset his shoulder now."

The others hurriedly moved away off Davis's screen except for Joe. The parents watched nervously, Yuriko shielding Shinya's eyes, as Joe twisted Davis' arm back into what looked like the right position. Davis let out an awful scream and coughed unsteadily a few times as he caught his breath.

"All right, Davis," Joe said soothingly, patting him gently on the back of the boy's good shoulder. "The worst is over. Now I'm going to pop your arm back into your shoulder socket. It's going to hurt, but it shouldn't be as painful as the twist. …Ready?"

Davis nodded, sweat dripping down his face. Everyone braced themselves again as Joe grabbed the injured arm again and pushed up. There was a sickening snap that echoed through the speakers followed by a pained moan from Davis.

Joe then began to rummage through a bag he'd set down before resetting Davis' shoulder and pulled out what looked like an instant ice pack. The parents were relieved to see that the older boy was a competent medic. It made their worry for their children lessen momentarily now that they knew that if their child got hurt, someone that had the knowledge to help them was there.

"It seems that Takuya and Koichi are missing," Ophanimon mused as the main screen focused on Koji's channel alone while the other surrounding monitors began to light up, each one focusing on a different child or teen. Zoe could be seen hugging Koji while JP and Tommy stood back in the background, with relieved smiles on their face.

"Apparently all of the children were separated when they arrived," Nefertimon stated as she reentered the room. "Now most of the children have found each other and only a few have yet to be found."

"Thank you, Nefertimon," Seraphimon sighed. "Keep these channels running and update us of any developments on our end."

"My Lord," the sphinx Digimon bowed before leaving once more.


What kind of developments is Nefertimon monitoring? How will the Frontier parents take it when they learn the truth about Koichi and Koji's reunion? Find out next time on Digimon: Digital Monsters!


Oh wow, what a long chapter. I rather liked writing in Kosei and Satomi's POV. I'd always though of Kosei as a business man of some kind so I gave him a job at a company that would involve a lot of moving, giving Koji a reason for his anti-social behavior and crappy people skills that he exhibited early in season 4. Did any of you catch the name of the company he works for? For those few who've actually read my Anime Survivor fic, Hadami is the name of one of the tribes. XD

I'd originally thought about there being a air of tension between Satomi and Tomoko, but both women just wouldn't cooperate with me and ended up showing what motherly and caring woman they were. Just because they'd both married the same man didn't mean that they couldn't be friends. I actually thought that it was kind of funny that both mothers got along. XD Oh! And don't think that Kosei's gotten off the hook so easily for not telling Satomi about Koichi. There are serious words to be had!

Again, I wish that it wasn't such a rehash of what's happened in UGotD, but I'm looking forward to the next set of chapters as PW deviates from the UGotD story line and forms it's own so that I don't have to keep rehashing parts of the story that you've all read before. Thank you for reading and PLEASE review! :D
