Hello again everyone. I just thought I'd warn you that this chapter will definitely be long because many characters show up for it. This chapter will include the lady and her Digimon who are watching over the kids and the whereabouts of Takeru, Hikari, Daisuke, Jou, Miyako, Yamato, and Ken. I just wanted to hurry and get more of the characters out of the way.

Now, as always, I do not own anything dealing with Digimon.

Chapter 14: 僕達はどこいるんだ？なぜがここにいるの?"
"Bokutachi wa doko irunda? Naze ga koko ni iru no?"
"Where are we? Why are we here?" Waking up in a Strange Land…

Takeru gave out a small moan while lying on something grainy. He determined it to be sand. Salty sea air also tickled his nose, which just confused him even more over what had happened or why he was currently hearing the crashing waves of the ocean.

Curious as to where he was, he opened his eyes slowly, his vision a bit blurred. After opening them completely, he noticed that two people, about his age, were watching over him with concerned looks.

"Good, you finally woke up," the short-haired girl with the whistle around her neck breathed out in relief.

"Are you okay?" the maroon-haired boy beside her asked.

Takeru sat up, and rubbed his eyes to get a better look at the two. "Hikari-chan? Daisuke-kun?" He stood up and noticed his change. "What happened? I thought my body shrinking was all just some weird dream!"

The other two could only shrug in response; they were just as lost. Takeru was smaller than both Daisuke and Hikari, which was a bit annoying for him since he'd grown used of being the tallest of them. He felt like he was eight all over again, when he'd first met Hikari, since he was currently smaller than her. "Daisuke-kun and I haven't been awake for long, but it seems like we've been knocked out here a good while. It's almost night time," Hikari explained. "That aside, we have to figure out where we are, and what's going on."

"I want to know why we're a bunch of kids!" Daisuke muttered hysterically.

Takeru felt his head, realizing that a hat was resting atop it. He'd entered the world without it, so how did it get back? He removed it and stared at it wide-eyed as he finally noticed the rest of his familiar dark green attire. "This hat...my clothes...this is what I wore to summer camp all those years ago when we first met our Digimon."

"Yeah, we've noticed. I'm wearing the same thing too. I even have my whistle that I gave to Tailmon when we had to leave the Digital World the first time." She pointed to the metal object hanging around her neck. "Daisuke-kun, though, isn't wearing his Digital World clothes or the goggles oniichan gave him."

Daisuke thought for a moment, when it came to him. "I think I know what these clothes are. These are the same ones, I think, I was wearing when Vamdemon attacked Odaiba. He had my sister, parents, and me captive at the convention center five years ago when searching for some kid!"

"How could you remember something like that?" Hikari asked.

"It was really scary when it happened, so maybe that's why. Right now, it's like it just happened yesterday, that's how well I'm remembering it." Daisuke looked out at the ocean as the sun set on the horizon, and then back to his friends. "Do you think we're back in the Digital World?"

"But we don't normally age backwards whenever we come to the Digital World," Takeru pointed out.

"We were obviously forced here, Takeru-kun. I think Daisuke-kun might be right. Maybe this is some type of a side effect since we haven't been allowed in the Digital World for so long."

"Maybe you're right, Hikari-chan. I guess that makes sense."

"Getting here was a bit weird. I was in the gym, and then got pulled into this cyclone thing from the basketball hoo...oh no!"

"What's wrong?" Takeru and Hikari asked in unison.

"Ichijouji was with me! We have to find him!"

"That's strange, the same thing happened to Hikari-chan and me. We were on our way back to school when some tornado came down and sucked us right into it. Ken-kun has to be close by since we ended up together."

"But Takeru-kun, it's almost dark. It's late evening; we can't go looking around if we don't know where we're going and the only place for us to go is through that jungle like area back there that Daisuke-kun and I woke up near. It's like we're on a deserted, tropical island."

"We can't just stand around here!" Daisuke argued.

"Let's just think of something to do first," Takeru intervened calmly.

"We may have to camp out here or something."

Daisuke grumbled and crossed his arm. He wanted to leave right then and there, but, realized he was outnumbered, and that Hikari was right. It was getting too dark to go scouting around.

"Takeru-kun, did a part of your chest glow in the shape of your old crest on your way here?"

"Yeah, did the same thing happen for you?"

She nodded. "It's very weird. I just don't understand it."

"I know this is going to sound a bit strange, but the same thing happened to me." Takeru and Hikari both gave the currently goggle-less boy looks of skepticism. "No no, it's true!" he adamantly insisted. "It did the same thing as you guys', but the shape it formed was different. It had the shape of the symbol I saw on that Golden Digimental I activated so that V-mon could armor evolve to Magnamon."

"That settles it then," Takeru slipped his green cap back onto his round head, "we must be back in the Digital World."

"I guess we are, but what can we actually do here? We don't even know what part of the Digital World we're in. I've never been here…I don't think." Hikari looked out at the ocean, the waves crashing serenely. 'Could this be the Dark Ocean, only in the light? Could we have ended up back here?'

"Neither have I."

"Let's make a raft and sail across the ocean!" Daisuke suggested, more energetic than ever. "Maybe we'll meet up with Whamon!"

"What are the chances of us running into the same Whamon?" Hikari asked in surprise. She couldn't believe the naïve boy could seriously suggest doing such a thing.

Daisuke scratched his head. "I don't know; I was just trying to think of something so we can get some help and that's the first thing I could come up with."

"I wonder what my big brother would do if he were here," Takeru thought out aloud.

"Hey, I just realized something. If we're in the Digital World, where are our Digimon?"

Takeru and Hikari looked to be in thought, also finding it strange that they hadn't encountered their friends.

"You know, I haven't seen any Digimon since we've been here," Hikari said.

Something caught Takeru's eye. He glanced towards the jungle, noticing a small, white figure. "Hey, look-it; someone's coming."

The figure rushed right up to the three, and tackled Hikari, giving her a big hug. "I knew you'd come!" the feline Digimon joyously greeted, "I just knew you would! You said we would meet again, and we are now!"

"T-Tailmon! It's so wonderful to see you again!"

"I was on my way here to catch some dinner, when I noticed you three here. I was actually planning to attack you, until I saw the whistle."

"I'm still trying to figure out why I have it if I originally gave it to you after our first adventure here."

Tailmon looked up at the three, a bit puzzled. "Hikari, how come the three of you look smaller than I remember?"

"We don't know. We just woke up this way after getting here."

"Tailmon, do you know why we're here, and where Patamon is?"

"Yeah, and V-mon too."

"I don't know where those two are. I haven't seen them for a good while now."

"Hikari-chan, I just realized something! You were right and I think I just figured something out."

"What was I right about?"

"Remember what you were saying before we ended up being forced through that gate?" She could only shake her head, as she was still a bit awe-stricken over their current predicament. "Well, you said that you sensed we were going to be a little different if we ever saw our Digimon again and we're all younger. We, somehow, aged backwards by at least five years because of what we're wearing and the stuff Daisuke-kun mentioned about Vamdemon when he was in search of you."

"Didn't Hikari-chan say something like that before we left the Digital World about two years ago; about how we were going to see them again?"

Tailmon nodded.

"So this is what she meant! Hikari-chan was sensing it even then! She sure is incredible when it comes to sensing stuff!"

"Tailmon, has anything happened in the Digital World lately that we should know about?"

"You could say that. Quite a few things have been going on around here. There are rumors of a Digimon trying to take over this world again, and to do so, his henchmen have been invading, and trying to conquer different parts of the Digital World for this guy. No one seems to know who's behind it, even Tentomon who's usually on top of things like that. I know he's trying to get more information, though.

"We Digimon decided to stay in an area each to try and help protect it, just like how Agumon and the others did a few years ago when the Digimon Kaiser was still in power and constantly sent out his controlled Digimon. Not sure if the rumors are true that we're about to enter another dark time, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was. We usually get along fine here; for a Digimon to just randomly attack an area, and not showing any signs of being controlled or infected is just unusual and unnatural, unless it's dealing with territorial issues between two opposing Digimon, but this isn't the case. These Digimon are literally invading and killing any Digimon within their path that oppose them."

"Aww, Tailmon. That's terrible!" Hikari's eyes glistened, as she hugged her partner. "Don't worry; we're here now."

"A lot of good that's doing," Daisuke stubbornly muttered, "we still don't know what we're supposed to be doing or why we're here."

"We have to stop those guys from hurting any more innocent Digimon," Takeru said with determination, "and we have to find out what they want to do to the Digital World, and to find Ken-kun."

"That's the spirit." Tailmon was grateful that the kids were so anxious to help.

"Tailmon, how come there are no Digimon around here?"

"Most have taken refuge, or currently hiding right now. It's sad how the Digimon around here have to keep themselves hidden just in case there's an enemy attack. Most of the Digimon around here are very low levels."

"If they're low levels, how come they're not at the nursery (Primary Village) for Elecmon to take care of? It was fun helping him out that time."

"Once the Digimon reach a certain level, they go off on their own. The ones around here are still very young; Baby II (In-training). You'll probably see some of them later, once they realize that you guys aren't enemies."

"Tailmon, do you know where Patamon is so that we can go to him?"

"And what about V-mon?"

"No, not really," she told them once again. "Those two could be anywhere, but we could try looking for them. They seem to goof off sometimes when nothing's going on. Both should try to be more responsible, like Hawkmon or Tentomon."

"Yay, I get to see Patamon again!" Takeru cheered.

"Whoo-hoo! I'm going to get to see V-mon!" Daisuke jumped around.

"We'll have to wait a while before we even consider going, though. It's getting late, and you three must be hungry or tired."

"No way, we're fine!" Daisuke's stomach growled. "Well, a small bite to eat wouldn't hurt."

"I refuse to lead you three anyplace until you've eaten and rested. It'll also be easier to navigate when it's lighter out. It's easy to get lost in this area if you're not native to it. We'll head out first thing in the morning."

"So we're camping out?"

"Yeah, it's for the best. I have a small hut that's not too far from here. We can make up some beds so that you can rest, and I can get you something to eat. Hope you don't mind fish, pineapple, coconut, banana, and other tropical fruits."

"Sounds good to me," Takeru spoke up. "I can't wait."

"Is there anything we can do to help?"

"When we get back, Hikari, maybe Daisuke and Takeru can help with bringing in firewood, while you and I prepare the meal."

The three nodded, and followed the feline back into the tropical forest to prepare to eat, swap stories (Daisuke and Takeru especially, since they were anxious to see their Digimon partners), and rest...

In another part of the Digital World, in a woodsy area two boys were running for their lives. Running was a bit difficult for the two since their clothing was a bit too big for them, and running around nude wasn't even considered an option. The two did have their height to make up for it, but the blue-haired boy's khaki pants and the spiky blonde-haired boy's dark jeans, were still a bit too long. Lucky for them, they didn't seem to have any trouble with their shoes. They, miraculously, fit, as they were the same exact ones they'd worn years earlier when traveling the Digital World before.

"This...can't...be...happening," the 12-year-old boy managed to get out between breaths, incredibly tired since he had a dark-blue duffle bag hanging off his skinny shoulder.

"Don't talk, Jou," the 11-year-old blonde instructed, "just keep running!"

"Who says I'm going to stop!"

Jou and Yamato, just like the others, had aged backwards to the ages they were in 1999 when first meeting their Digimon partners. At the moment, both were being pursued by a small, round-shaped Digimon in a mask, who carried a small sword known as a ninja-ken, and was constantly tossing shuriken (throwing stars) at the two. Fortunately for them, he consistently missed.

"Come back here!" the Digimon commanded, as he leapt from tree to tree. "My superior would probably really like to meet you!"

"What kind of a Digimon is that anyway? I've never seen one like it before."

"Do we really have to stick around to find out?" Jou huffed.

"Not necessarily..."

(Digi-Analyzer On)

Hawkmon: This is Igamon, a vaccine type who doesn't take too kindly to strangers. He is a skilled martial artist, who is an expert in the art of ninjutsu, specializing in Iga-style methods of shurikenjutsu and kenjutsu. It's usually very difficult to catch Igamon in action, as he uses the shadows for cover...which makes fighting him quite the challenge, which I learned pretty well...

(Digi-Analyzer Off)
x x x x
"Hurry, we've almost escaped him."

Yamato quickly glanced back, and realized Jou was right. They were way ahead of Igamon; as a matter of fact, they couldn't even see him anymore. Feeling that it was okay, the two stopped running to catch their breaths before starting off again.

Jou wiped some beads of sweat from his brow. "That was a close one."

"You were saying?" they heard a voice chuckle darkly.

"Please don't tell me that's who I think it is," Jou muttered, more depressed than what he currently was.

"Oh no, it's that ninja guy again."

Jou took off in a sprint. "I told you not to tell me!"

Yamato took off right behind him. "It's getting dark out here; if we don't do something fast, we'll just end up lost! I'm sure he knows this area well."

"Keep on running!" Igamon was now chasing them on foot, a smirk on his round face. "Please, just go on and run into my traps."

"Did...he...just...say..."

"...his...traps?" Jou gasped while trying to get some more air.

Before the two could do or say anything more, Igamon leapt into a nearby tree, and threw out two shuriken.

"Did you see that, Jou! He missed us!"

"Something's not right. He missed us by way too m-"

Before Jou could finish, a cage fell right on top of them.

"-uch."

"Surprise!" Igamon laughed.

"Damn, we're trapped."

"I knew it," Jou groaned. "I knew something was off. It was probably set up from the beginning. He used those shuriken of his to cut the ropes holding this cage in place, more than likely, which is why with those final two, he seemed to be entirely off. He intentionally led us here and was constantly missing us on purpose so that we'd fall into his trap.

"I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't the only trap here."

"Very good, though not completely correct," Igamon clapped, as he jumped down in front of the cage. "These woods are mine, and it's a good way to keep out trespassers. I figured I'd had fun with you long enough; I didn't want you to get seriously injured since my more dangerous traps are up ahead. It would ruin my fun of killing you. I kept missing for the reason you mentioned, but it was also the only way to keep you from some of the other traps I have set up around that could kill you.

"For Digimon, they'll just get injured, but your human flesh more than likely wouldn't be able to withstand it."

"Excuse me, but why do you want to hurt us?" Yamato asked curiously.

"Oh no you don't!" Igamon warned, pointing an accusatory finger at the boy. "I am not going to fall for any of your tricks! I am a skilled ninja, and we shinobi do not fall for stuff like that!"

"Fall for what?! We didn't do anything!"

Igamon ignored the blonde and whistled. A couple of the big trees nearby began to move. Yamato stared at them malevolently and growled, "Jureimon..."

He recalled the incident where he'd encountered a Jureimon (Cherrymon) before. It was when he and his friends were fighting against the Dark Masters. That particular Jureimon, who worked for the Dark Master, Pinocchimon (Puppetmon), had manipulated him into thinking that Taichi was his true enemy. Due to this, Taichi, as well as his Digimon partner, could have been seriously hurt because of his being so weak-minded to fall for such trickery.

"Nice to see that you know your Digimon. Now, I want you two to take them back to my castle; I have plans for these two."

"This is just great," Jou groaned. "We've been conscious here for probably less than five minutes, and we're already in some kind of trouble."

"You two, hold on a moment. I want to make a quick call first." The Jureimon nodded, and stood their ground.

"Wait, don't Jou and I get to make a call?"

He pulled out a mobile phone. "Now why would I go and let you do something like that for?"

He dialed the phone and walked off a slight ways. Both Jou and Yamato tried their bests to listen in on the conversation, but Igamon was being much too private.

(Phone Convo Start)

Igamon: Hello sir, I caught two of those kids you mentioned that would be appearing in our world. I was out doing a few training exercises, when I noticed some figures walking around nearby. I then went after them stealthily and caught them just like that. I'm about to return home now.

Boss: Very good. So far, three have been found and caught to my knowledge. The two you found, and the one that Ebemon is holding captive. I know that Angellina is doing all she can to stop me, and those children are the key. I've made them more vulnerable for you, and I want you to dispose of them as soon as possible! Also, remember, if you are to come across the former Digimon Kaiser, do not harm him in any way. I want him alive.

Igamon: Yes sir!

Boss: Do not disappoint me, Igamon, or I'll see to your death personally.

Igamon: (Gulped) Y-yes s-sir. I would never disobey you, sir! I also know for a fact that neither of these boys is the old Digimon Kaiser. I heard them call each other by name.

Boss: I see. That means you can stick to the original task. Carry out your orders, and I'll see to it that you are properly rewarded. Didn't you want to form your own clan?

Igamon: Yes, sir.

Boss: It shall be done. Once we're done with this world, I plan on entering the human world, although, I cannot in my current state just yet due to some unfortunate technicalities caused by those children, Gennai, and the guardians, but the time grows near. Even if I don't finish with this world, I'll definitely be going to the human world. You can start up a clan there. Their world has so much more to offer, as opposed to our world.

Igamon: Sir, if you don't mind my asking, what's so important about these human children that we have to actually kill them? The two I have here seem pretty harmless to me. They aren't even worthy enough for me to spar with.

Boss: They possess an unusual power, and if that power is released, it'll ruin my plans to conquer their world as well as taking over this one. Now, go do as you were instructed.

Igamon: Yes, sir. Is there any particular way you want them dealt with?

Boss: You can do whatever you want with them. Cut out their hearts, and toss their useless carcasses into the fiery pits in the new Fiery Hot Springs, where all those Fire Reptile Digimon hang around for all I care.

Igamon: Yes sir! I shall not disappoint you, sir!

(Phone Convo End)

Igamon closed up the phone, and made his way back to his two victims. He gave the two a bit of a sneer. "Well, it seems that I get to rip out your hearts and burn your bodies, since neither of you are the old Digimon Kaiser." The two boys' faces went a bit chalky after hearing such a gruesome thing. Igamon couldn't help but laugh at their expressions. "I tried to persuade my boss for me to let you go, but he wants me to kill you," he joked mockingly. "I wouldn't worry if I were you, though, since I have plans for you two."

Igamon turned to the Jureimon, and ordered them to carry the cage back to his place. They started off, Igamon leading the way, but fortunately for Jou and Yamato, nearby, a Digimon friend had witnessed nearly the entire event. He was out on patrol and disabling most of Igamon's traps. Luckily, Igamon never seemed to notice. His main flaw was that he never rechecked the traps after setting them. The cage that had trapped Jou and Yamato was just luck on Igamon's part.

'What does Igamon want with them and why is he interested in Ken? I swear I heard him say something about the Digimon Kaiser. I hope that those rumors aren't entirely true. Igamon is probably one of the more skilled Digimon around here. He took over this area pretty quickly. I couldn't catch all that he said while on the phone, but the looks on Jou and Yamato's faces says it all. He's planning something bad.

'I can't fight Igamon alone. Who knows what type of security he has at that newly conquered castle of his. I got to find help. I just hope some of my Digimon allies are around.'

With that, the Digimon rushed off in hopes of finding someone to help him free the captured humans...
x x x x
"Oh dear," the being uttered, while monitoring the children through her crystal orb. "This isn't going as smoothly as I'd planned."

"I knew something was going to happen! Two of them have already gotten themselves into trouble!"

"I know, but that Digimon who saw everything is on his way to get help. He will succeed. Death is not in the future of these children."

"You don't think that the enemy knows of the other children's where-a-bouts, do you? It's obvious he knows of the ones named Jou-san and Yamato-san."

"Let's hope not. Those two will have to beat Igamon and his lackeys in some way, and restore peace to that area. Let's just hope that they'll be able to."

"Hope!? You're basing their very lives on hope!"

"It's just an expression; besides, I know they'll be safe. I haven't had any visions of any of them dying. Igamon infiltrated that area and either killed or ran most of the Digimon who once resided there, out. The area is pretty close to one of the Digimon who protects it, but there is no way he can do so all alone. He still goes there, though, to diffuse all of Igamon's traps, which is no easy task. One must be extremely careful when doing so."

"Hmm, I see another child here. Looks like a girl and she seems to be lost. Who exactly is she?"

"This is the one that we'll be meeting up with, I assume."

"What's her name?"

"I'm not entirely sure, but we will learn of this later on. That child, right now, is the safest amongst all of them, since she technically has no direct connection to all that's going on. Our enemy probably doesn't even know of her existence.

"Now, let us keep watch over the others. They're in for quite an adventure..."
x x x x
Miyako had been wandering around aimlessly for a good while, late evening approaching. She was quite lost as to everything that had gone on, and had no idea where she was or why her mobile phone couldn't get any type of a signal. The sky was a murky yellow, and she was walking through woods on a faint, dirt path leading through it, but she had still managed to get herself lost, as it was growing darker. The only thing she had determined, in spite of herself, was that she was wearing the same clothes she had worn when she witnessed the battle over the net with Diablomon.

"Izumi-senpai," Miyako called out in frustration, "where are you!"

Miyako gave off a discouraged sigh. She'd been searching for Koushirou for what seemed like hours, even though it'd only been about 45 minutes. So far, she hadn't come in contact with anyone or anything.

'Oh, I can't find him anywhere! Where could he be?' The girl noticed something up ahead and squinted to get a better look. From where she was, she noticed a building with smokestacks. 'Is that...a factory? Maybe someone there could help me…but it looks like a really long walk. Oh well, I have to get there, no matter how tired and hungry I am right now for the sake of Izumi-senpai!'

The girl took off, walking briskly. She then began to quicken her pace, but by doing so, she didn't watch where she was going. She ended up tripping over something, which caused her glasses to fly off. She felt around for them and slipped them back on, curious as to what had caused her to fall. She gasped when she saw that the object was actually a small boy with short hair.

Miyako rushed over and shook the dark-haired boy gingerly. "Are you okay?"

She shook the boy wearing the white dress shirt and blue slacks some more. She wasn't sure how the boy had gotten there at all. Had he been knocked unconscious, or was he just a really deep sleeper?

"Excuse me, hello?"

The boy started to stir as he looked towards the owner of the voice. He saw a young lavender-haired girl kneeled by him.

"Hi," he automatically responded, his vision still a bit blurry. He looked at the girl, a perplexed expression on his handsome, narrow face. "Who are you?"

"Shouldn't I be asking you that question?"

"But I asked first."

Miyako didn't answer him, as she began to study his face. "You look familiar to me."

'Everything's still a little blurry.' He blinked and rubbed his eyes.

"Are you sure you're okay? You were completely out when I found you."

His vision completely clear, he stared at the girl, and smiled gratefully. "Miyako-san!"

"How do you know me?" she questioned him cautiously.

The boy stood up. "What do you mean? Don't you recognize me?" Miyako shook her head with bit of uncertainty. It was like she recognized him, but at the same time, didn't. "Wait a minute...what happened to my body? I'm smaller, and I wasn't wearing this earlier. These are the kinds of clothes I wore as a kid. My mother always made me wear them."

"Wait a minute, who exactly are you and how do you know me?"

"Do I really look that different? It's me, Ken; Ichijouji Ken."

"Ken-kun?" He nodded. "W-wow. I'm sorry, I really didn't recognize you. Your hair and everything is different. I guess I'm just used of the tall, long-haired Ken instead of a small, short-haired Ken."

"That's okay. It took me a while to recognize you too, until I noticed your glasses and your exotic hair. What I mainly want to know is why I'm younger."

"So you were forced here too?"

Ken nodded, as the two of them began to explain their stories on how they arrived in the Digital World, and how her phone couldn't pick up a signal.

"So you say you were with Daisuke?"

"He was in the gym shooting hoops after school since no club was using it, I guess."

"Basketball? Seems he would go and kick a soccer ball around before even touching a basketball. Why was he there anyway?"

"His Hikari-san problem."

"Did you find out what was bothering him?"

"Yeah; he's upset because Hikari-san is unintentionally ignoring and rejecting him. I guess he prefers direct rejection."

"I guess so..."

"So, you were with Koushirou-san?"

"Yeah, but I can't seem to find him anyplace."

"We could always look for them together, Koushirou-san and Daisuke."

"I saw a building a long ways from here," she pointed ahead. "I'm sure if we get there, someone could help us find our friends."

"I don't think we can make it before nightfall, Miyako-san."

"I don't think we will either, but we can at least try to get as far as we can before the sun sets and I guess if we don't make it before then, we'll have to camp out."

"At least we have these trees around; some may have edible fruits on them and I'm sure we can find some water around here."

The two commenced their walk. "Yeah, I guess so, but I still don't care for camping in a place so unfamiliar without our friends."

"I know this may sound a bit strange, but even though my body is younger, I still feel like my present-day self."

"It's not all that strange because I feel the same exact way."

"Do you have any idea exactly where we are?"

"I'm not too sure. I was thinking about that for a good while before bumping into you. I think we were brought back to the Digital World."

"Could we really be back?"

"I think so, but I haven't seen Hawkmon or any other Digimon since I've been here, which is why I hate the idea of camping out around here."

"Maybe they're in that building we're heading towards and maybe Wormmon is there too!"

Miyako clapped her hands. "Bingo! Maybe we'll find Hawkmon too!"

"Yeah, let's go find our Digimon partners and our friends!" Ken obliviously grabbed Miyako's hand, and began to pull her along. Miyako couldn't help but slightly blush as Ken did this, but neither objected to the handhold and neither let go...
