Chapter 3

//One week Later\\

Twenty-two kids sat around one table in a small café, located in Odaiba. A.J. was sitting on Kevin's lap, both of whom were laughing. They were all joking about how bad it would've been if Izzy hadn't been curious and followed them to see where they went. At this, Tai had added on that Izzy probably liked Ash - which, at this, Izzy had tried to strangle Tai, even though Ash had called dibs on strangling him. Matt had immediately jumped up and defended Tai, even though there wasn't really a point in doing so. They would get to him eventually - but, Matt managed to get them off of that subject. He had managed to jump to where the newly discovered digidestined lived. To their surprise, they lived in Odaiba, but, they went to their rivalry school - Kotetsu High.

"Well, we can see each other during sports events, or competitions," Kari pointed out, T.K. nodding in agreement. "And, T.K., aren't you the basketball team's captain at O.H.?" A.J. questioned, raising her eyebrow.

"Erm, well….. Yeah. I am. Why?" he questioned in return, smirking, already sure that he knew the answer.

"'Cause, I'm the K.H. basketball team's captain!" she beamed, Kevin grinning and nodding, to show his approval of her position.

Kit just slightly glowered at the two - she didn't like the way they were sitting. Apparently Katie had caught on, and noticed immediately why Kit seemed a little angry. Tai noticed it, and silently thought to himself, 'If I EVER see Kari and T.K. sitting like that….'

Matt had gone outside, Katie close behind - they had said something about a little surprise for them. They had been curious, but had listened to them when they told them no peeking.

//Outside\\

"You really think I'm ready to not drum? I drum when I get nervous, and I really wanna drum right now…."

"Katie, you can't back out now. Besides, you were doing great when we practiced!"

"Matt, did I ever tell you that I have never sang in front of anyone before?"

Matt just stared at her in disbelief. "You WHAT?!"

Katie slightly blushed. "Yeah, just drums before this - no singing."

Matt sighed, then gave her a reassuring look. "You'll do fine, don't worry."

They walked back in, towards the group, Matt with his guitar in hand, and Katie without her sticks. They all just started quietly, and the new group knew something was wrong - Katie ALWAYS had her sticks - no matter what! Something was really messed up.

Matt began his easy strumming of the guitar, looking down for a few seconds at his fingerings, as if he was just gazing out at the night sky. He then looked back up, nodding at Katie. She nervously gulped, nodding back at him.

She slowly began to sing.

I thought that I had seen you somewhere before,

And now I'm no longer so sure.

You're like me, but

You're not like me.

You act like me,

You talk like me,

You even look like me,

But you're not me,

Are you?

I thought that I was looking in a mirror,

Just seeing my reflection,

But I realized something more.

You're me.

Matt now began to sing, taking over her part, and she dropped out.

You never realized how much alike we are,

Until you learn more about me.

We're a lot alike,

Inside and out.

Matt joined in, the two both singing at the same time, Katie singing higher than Matt.

I didn't realize

That you are my mirror,

And if we work together,

We'll win!

I thought that I was looking in a mirror,

Just seeing my reflection,

But I realized something more.

They stopped singing, and Tai, Kit, T.K., Kari, A.J., and Kevin were the first to immediately start clapping. Katie nervously smiled as the others joined in on the clapping, all of them grinning and congratulating them. Katie's friends were clapping her on the back. They settled down a few minuets later, and asked who wrote the song.

"Well, Matt wrote it," T.K. said, smiling.

"Actually, you're thinking of the wrong person, T.K."

Everyone slowly turned toward Katie, who immediately gave them all a big, sheepish grin. Katie's original friends began clapping for her, congratulating her. The others were all confused. Katie explained to them that she had never sang a song, more or less, written one. They were soon congratulating her as well.

Ash broke the congratulation when she suddenly shouted out "Guys, there's a new Dark Tower up in the Digital World! And, it's close to where we keep our digimon at!"

Kit suddenly grinned, pulling her goggles up over her eyes.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go get it!"

"Wait….. Dark Tower? How can this be? We stopped the Digimon Emperor…." Izzy stared in confusion at Ash.

"Well, we have a Digimon Empress, and she's gotten out of control. She's made dark armor for the digimon that she controls, making them almost impossible to defeat. We can always use help, though." At this, Izzy couldn't help but to grin.

"Sure! I'm in!"

Everyone else immediately agreed to help them, and were soon pulling out digivices. They all jumped up, Matt and Katie offering to pay for the bill. The others had left, and some had taken Matt's car, which, had made him really mad. He had just watched Katie walk over to a green motorcycle, which she immediately put a key into.

"Need a lift?" she teased, smiling.

"Sure, Katie Seeing as they stole my car…."

Katie just laughed at his comment, cranking up the engine, revving it up to make it roar. He hopped on, grabbing a helmet off the back of the seat.

"Just no wheelies, ok?"

Katie laughed.

"Party-pooper!"

Katie jumped on, strapped on her helmet, and took off, Matt screaming in shock and clinging onto her.
