Shadowofshippo: Well I'm back with chapter two!

Chapter 2: Digidestened of darkness

Somewhere in the digital world...

"Azulongmon." The hot headed bird of Suzaku called. "You're late. Ebonwumon, Baihumon, and our other guests are already here waiting for you to arrive."

"Really?" The old dragon gave a sly smile. This was a serious thing, but he paid no mind. He was in a cheery mood today. "Then we should hurry on inside." Zuqiaomon and he flew into the fire bird's home. "Fellow digimon I humbly apologize for my tardiness." He said to everyone.

"It is quite alright." Seraphimon, one of the great six-winged angels, said.

"Shall we get this meeting started?" Ophanimon said, floating in between Cherubimon and Seraphimon.

"Sure." Azulongmon nodded.

"All of you but us two can fly." Ebonwumon whined to Baihumon, looking at all of the floating digimon.

Baihumon put on a rare amused smile. "It's not like you to whine Ebonwumon." He turned to the others, looking up to see them float. "Gennai has told me that the digimental of darkness had finally been awakened. But it's owner has not found it."

"Do you really think a mere human can control the element of darkness." The fire bird sneered, his light mood quickly vanished. He had not like the idea that humans had saved thier land long ago and then again a few years back. He especially didn't like the fact that it was mere children that saved them.

The great white tiger sighed in responce to his tone. "I had never said that it's owner was human, fully at least."

The fire bird lightened a bit thinking that the owner was a humanoid digimon. "Then when do we meet the owner?"

Now the one of the great angels, cherubimon, spoke. His voice a little husk as if he needed water. "The owner will be comming soon, but we will not meet her yet. One of our own will watch over the digimental and it's owner. They do not need to know of us yet."

Now Ophanimon spoke up. "I have also heard rumors that the crests of loyalty, trust, darkness, reason, compassion, and truth, have also been found by several digimon."

"We won't need any help from the humans if the digimental is kept under wraps by it's owner." The fire bird protested.

"Honestly, Zuqiaomon, do you hate humans so much?" Azulongmon asked, slightly joking.

"We are too dependant on them!" He argued.

Afterschool...

Kari and I waited for Kurai to pack her things. The last two things I saw her bring was a small blanket and pillow. "Why do you bring those things everyday?" I asked her.

"I always do." Was her reply.

"Tailmon..." Kari pulled me into her arms. Not that I don't mind.

I looked up to her. "What?"

"Nevermind." I saw her gasp as something.

Kurai and I quickly turned to her. "Something wrong, Kari-chan?" We said in unison.

"N-nothing. Let's just head on to the computer lab. Tai-tachi (tachi means something around group) is waiting for us there." Kari told us.

"Right." We both said, not willing to push any farther. She hadn't been like this since we had been to the dark ocean. Had it been contacting her again?

Computer lab...

Taichi looked a little annoyed, probably from waiting. Koushiro was busy talking on the phone to Mimi most likely. Takeru and Kari began to talk happily about thier date on friday. All but Taichi seemed as if they had been waiting here for nothing.

Kurai sighed, waiting for them to notice. "Are we going yet?" She said rather bored.

"Yeah, we're going, as soon as Koushiro stops talking to his girlfriend!" Taichi said pissed.

"It's just Mimi! And she's not my girlfriend!" Koushiro yelled, then turned back to his cell.

I could hear someone yelling on the other line. Mimi's voice. "What do you mean 'just Mimi' ?!"

Koushiro winced at the intensity of her voice. He is really going to have it later. "Mimi, I..."

Click.

He stood there stunned. "She hung up on me..."

"I didn't really mean it." Taichi appologized.

"I'll stay here and watch you guys okay?" Koushiro said.

"Okay." Taichi nodded.

Takeru walked up to Kurai. "Is this your first time?" He asked.

Kurai nodded. "Yeah. So I'll get a digimon like the ones you guys got right?"

"Yeah."

A bright light enveloped all of us taking us into the digital world. Kari's and Tatkeru's clothes changed. Kurai's clothes changed also. Her normal black, silver, and red attire changed completely. She wore a torquice blue jacket over a faded red shirt, blue jeans and a dark blue baseball cap.

"I don't have to worry about that here..." I heard Kurai say to herself quietly. She turned to us and said. "Weird costume changes. So, where do we go?"

Takeru looked to Kari and the others. "To Primary Villiage."

"If it's okay with Kurai?"

Kurai just shrugged. "Why is it important about getting a digimon partner? Digimon should pick thier own partners not the other way around."

Taichi growled at her. "I really don't like you, Oukami."

"Yagami." She sneared back.

Takeru stood between the two. "Okay you two that's enough. Can we just get back to finding her partner digimon."

"Yeah, maybe her partner will cool her off." Taichi muttered.

"What'd you say!?" Kurai yelled.

A thick blanket of mist slowly moved its way towards us.

"Kari-chan!" Takeru yelled. Taichi echoed him soon after.

"Takeru-kun!" Kari yelled.

The mist began to loosen. I heard Kari gasp.

Under the seal...

"Lucemon, you had lied." A triumphant voice said.

"What that?"

"Koichi comes. I will be freed."

"Then so will I."

Dark Ocean

3 person point of view

Hikari, Tailmon, and Kurai looked around lost. They were in a light house of sorts. Tailmon stood close to Hikari watching her closely. She didn't want her to be hurt again. Kurai paid little or no notice, she was much more intrested in the light house. She stopped suddenly, making Hikari and Tailmon bump into her.

"Tailmon-san, Kari-chan," Kurai whispered.

"What is it?" Tailmon asked before Hikari could.

"You can't feel it? We're surrounded." Kurai told them. They looked shocked.

Why couldn't I sense that? Tailmon thought. She looked to her partner. "Kari..."

Hikari nodded. She pulled out her digivice. It showned with bright light that seemed to scare off the digimon. "They ran?"

Kurai looked a bit dizy, and placed her hand on the wall to keep balance. "Strange." She mumbled.

Tailmon agreed. "Let's head on."

Kurai nodded, and began walking up the stairs. "Maybe we could find if there is a way out of here up there." She suggested.

Tailmon shrugged, the times before they had just transported here then back out of there. "Maybe..." For Kari's sake... She added quietly.

When they reached the top of the light house Hikari stumbled. Kurai helped her walk around. The light from the center of the light house was rather dark. Hikari didn't like it, and seemed to be frightened of it. Kurai felt drawn towards where the light was emited, but Hikari didn't want to get close to it, so Kurai let her sit against one of the walls as she walked up to it. Tailmon followed Kurai out of curiosity. She peered down into the dark light.

"A digimental." Tailmon said in awe. Then she noticed that there was something beside it, a digivice and a tag. She was even more puzzled when Kurai picked them up.

"They... It feels like it's mine..." Kurai said. "That egg thing feels the same, but..."

"If it's yours then you should be able to take it out." Tailmon told her. Strange... It emits darkness and only darkness, can a human managed to have a heart of pure darkness?

Kurai nodded, and took Tailmon's advice. She began to pull it out, and did. The dark light flashed suddenly, and when it was gone a dark armored digimon stood in front of her.

"K-Koichi?" The blonde haired digimon asked. "No..." He shook his head.

Kurai was shocked at first but quickly recovered. Her fear had turned into anger. "How do you know my father!" She demanded.

"You his child? You're nothing, but a mutt." The digimon retorted.

Kurai growled, and charged at him. She delivered several blows to the dark knight. Her fury clouded her aim, and missed him at most of her punches. "You'll pay for that!"

Tailmon sighed. There's no changing that human. She thought with an amused smile inside. "Kari?" She turned back to her partner worriedly.

Hikari was sick, staying in the Dark Ocean too long took its toll. "We need to get out of here." She told Tailmon.

Tailmon quickly ran up to her, and felt her forehead. "You're burning up!" She exclaimed, and turned to Kurai. "We need to get out of here!"

Kurai turned her attention to Tailmon and agreed. Her anger quickly suppressed for now. She pocketed her things and then helped Hikari up. "Dark knight, we need to be going. I hate to ask this, but could you take us out of here?"

"For the child of light, I will, but not for you, mutt."

Yagami Residence

Hikari woke to see that Taichi, Koushiro, Takeru, and Tailmon were peering down at her. She blushed as she sat up. "What happened?" She asked, looking over to where Kurai and the dark digimon were arguing about something.

"We found you three in freezeland. Kilometers away from where we were." Takeru said. He turned to Kurai and the dark digimon. "It seems that the digimon's name is Loewemon. And... He's Kurai's digimon partner."

Hikari was shocked. This must be what they are arguing about.

Tailmon gave a sigh, when she noticed that Hikari was looking at Kurai and her new partner. "They've been arguing since they got here. I don't think they'll make very good partners."

"You can be suprized, Tailmon." Taichi smiled. "Sooner or later they're bound to get along."

Tailmon lightly blushed realizing what he was refering too, back to when she had first met Hikari. "At least we didn't fight like they do." She said seeing Kurai and Loewemon get into a fight with fists again.

"Kurai! Loewemon! You're gonna break the wall!." Taichi yelled.

They stopped, and Kurai walked up to Hikari. "Are you alright?" She asked.

Hikari nodded. "I'm okay now. I remember a dark light what was that?"

"It was the digitama-"

"Digimental." Koushiro corrected.

"Who cares!" She yelled quieting Koushiro quickly. "Anyways, it harmed you somehow. Kou-san here thinks that the thing 'emits' darkness. And that it affected you greatly because you are the child of light. The lion over there," She pointed to Loewemon, "says the same."

Koushiro nodded. "That reminds me, could I borrow the digimental for a while?"

"Sure, go ahead. Keep it if you want. In fact if you want you can keep my 'digivice', this 'tag', and the lion over there."

"Are you being sarcastic?" Takeru asked, slightly amused.

"No, if he really wants he could have them."

"I've never seen that kind of digivice before." Koushiro looked at her digivice closely. It wasn't anything like thiers. The top looked at if it could scan things, the odd shaped handle. He picked it up, and gave it back to her. "I would like to examine it, but you should keep it with you."

She took it. "Whatever."

Hikari looked to Loewemon, who carried the digimental in his arms, and thought, What is inside that digimental? It's sinister. I don't want it near me.

"Kari-chan?" Takeru said. He felt her forehead. "Are you alright? You are a little warm."

Hikari smiled at him. He was always worried for her. "I'm fine. I'm just a little tired that's all."
