Children of the Legend

By: Kari Minamoto

Author's Note: I was hoping for a quicker update. I think I failed. I graduated high school and kind of neglected my writing during all the Senior stuff. Anyways thank you to everyone who reviewed chapter 21! I am now over 400 reviews. When I started this fic sophomore year, I never dreamed it would be so popular! Thank you to everyone who reads and supports CotL! This chapter is dedicated to you! (Then again without you guys and girls I wouldn't have continued!)

Disclaimer: Don't own digimon, never will.

Chapter 22: Ice, Secrets, and Confusion

Tommy was shocked at who was standing in front of him. Actually he probably shouldn't have been so surprised considering the wackiness that had been ensuing for the past few weeks.

"Me want crest. You give me crest," the voice of possibly the dimmest digimon said to the warrior of ice.

Tommy looked at him. He looked the same: super short, super large nose, and super stupid. That pretty much summed up Grumblemon in Tommy's opinion.

"What are you doing here?" Tommy exclaimed to the rock digimon who was trying to look menacing by swinging his rock hammer at anything in his way. He was achieving what he wanted, scaring the little boy.

'This isn't good,' Tommy thought to himself as he kept moving back to avoid the hammer. Grumblemon was swinging it like the baseball bat a player swings while on deck, 'I have to think of something to do!"

Tommy all of a sudden felt something hard and brick behind him. He had been thinking so hard that he wasn't aware he had backed himself into a corner.

"You loose. Me win. You give me crest, you not get hurt now," Grumblemmon told the boy and started reaching toward Tommy.

Tommy did the only thing he could think of. He reached into his pocket quickly and shouted:

"Execute! Spirit Evolution! Kumamon!"

It was unanimously decided, Izzy was in charge of the crests. He had all the technology, knowledge, and of course could contract Gennai 24/7 and ask him anything he wanted. Almost like going to Walgreen's at two in the morning to pick up medicine. Only Izzy didn't pick up medicine, he got information.

Currently it was the afternoon, Izzy knew that it would be better to talk to Gennai now rather than later. He hated bothering the man at night, even if he looked about the same age as the digidestined now. Sometimes Izzy doubted if Gennai slept, but the other digidestined wondered the same about Izzy.

Izzy was sitting at his computer typing a million words a minute. At least that's how it looked to most people. All of a sudden his computer screen flashed the colors of the rainbow and Gennai appeared.

"Gennai, it's so great to talk to you again. We're in a ton of trouble," Izzy told him while running a hand through his auburn hair.

Gennai just looked at him and sighed. "You have to figure this out soon. Myotismon's minions are attacking more and more often. You have to find the children of the Legend. It's getting critical."

"I know," Izzy replied with frustration. "Kari was supposed to talk to the student in her class that she was suspecting. I think her name was Zoe."

Gennai sighed. "I hope that this girl knows something since we really need a big break."

Both looked silently outside hoping for a sign. The light they saw contrasted their mood and their need to find the Legendary Warriors.

"Please tell us something," Gabumon asked the dimwitted digimon Neemon.

"Well, it can't hurt could it," Bokomon said while making sure none of the guards were listening.

"The children of the legend was a book that I wrote. It was about six children who came to the digital world. They did not have partners thus it is harder to track them down now. Instead they fused with the Legendary Warriors and became an amazing team that saved the world from destruction," Bokomon said in a know it all voice.

Agumon and Gabumon just stared at him.

"You're joking right?" Agumon said after a few moments of silence.

"No," Bokomon said, "Why would I joke?"

"It makes no sense," Gabumon said while pacing the small cage.

"It's so crazy it just might," Agumon said under his breath, but no one else heard the comment.

Bokomon just sighed and thought 'No one ever believes me.'

"Crystal freeze!" Kumamon yelled as he missed Grumblemon who buried himself underground in a hole. As a result the attack missed turning the nearby street lamp into a giant popsicle.

"Miss me, miss me, now kiss me," Grmblemon said from below the ground.

"I don't think so," Kumamon said looking around to see where the digimon was going to pop up.

All of a sudden there was a rumble right beneath him. Kumamon looked down and saw the ground around him cracking. The Warrior of Ice tried to move in try, but it was hopeless. Grumblemon knocked Kumamon sideways against a wall, dazing the little bear.

"You give me crest now and die later or you die now and I take crest. Pick," Grumblemon said while holding his hammer above his head.

"Neither, I'm not beaten yet!" Kumamon said standing up.

"Slide evolution! Korikakumon!"

Kari was scared stiff. There was digimon, that much was obvious, staring at her. Only this one, she knew wasn't about to help her. Once he stepped out of the shadows and she got a good look at him, he was bad news. His armor was as black as a night with no moon. Then there were the eyes. Too many eyes to count. All staring at her.

"I will destroy the light," his voice as cold as his appearance.

Kari did the only thing she could think of: scream.

The trio out by the tree was just lounging around, discussing battle tactics, until a scream punctured the quiet air.

"What was that?" Zoe said looking toward the school.

"I think it was Mrs. Takashi," Takuya said as Koji was already running for the school.

Zoe and Takuya looked at each other and followed after the lone wolf. As they got closer to the school they heard an explosion. One of the walls of their classroom had been blown to pieces by something fairly strong.

The three looked at each other before shouting:

"Execute! Spirit Evolution! Agunimon! Kazemon! Lobomon!"

The three warriors headed into the school, parts of which were now in shambles. The trio hoped they weren't to late to save their teacher from whatever was taking place inside.

Again, sorry for the extremely slow update. And for how bad it is. And how short it is. And how weak it is. The action is coming soon. Promise. Let me know if you want a repost. I was so busy (and a mental block as of what to do next in the fic didn't help). From March to May I had different finals (including a 15 page paper). My Leadership group started to get neglected so I was at every function to keep it going strong. Honors Night, Prom, Baccalaureate Mass, Senior Memory Night, Graduation, and interviews for summer jobs. I've just been ridiculously busy. I apologize for the slow update and thank you for your dedication.

Please review!
