Author's note: This chapter's a bit short so sorry about that. Its just that what I'm planning to happen next is too much to fit in with this chapter so you'll have to wait a little while. (At least it didnt take me six months to update this time) The next chapter will hopefully be posted next week so please keep a watch on the story so you know when the next chapter comes out. As always please review! And thanks to my favorite reviewer, Darks Light, just because she always reviews soon after I post. (Spot for second favorite reviewer is still open so if you leave a good review, I might just pick you and tell everyone to check out your stories) Check out Darks' digimon fic s:2622501: The Kid's Generation Reign of chaos:1 . It's pretty good but doesnt get as much attention as it deserves.
DigiworldDotNet Chapter 4: Player's Guide Part 2
"What the hell happened!?" A boy said as he stared at his TV, "I've got to replay it." He picked up his remote and hit rewind. He played the tape again and again. "What the hell?" He played the tape over one more time. It was a recording of Keisuke in his room sitting at his computer and talking on a cell phone. Keisuke went to a website and suddenly the TV screen the boy was watching turned blank. A few moments later Keisuke's room reappeared on the TV but Keisuke wasn't there anymore, "Hmm…" The boy looked closely at the TV. "Heh! He left his computer at the site!" The boy exclaimed at he got up. He quickly grabbed a jacket and ran out of his room heading for Keisuke's house.
The boy walked down the street heading to Keisuke's house, "I have got to see this game." The boy was five and a half feet tall and had wavy orange hair. He was wearing black glasses over his blue eyes, a pair or jeans, and a green turtleneck underneath his jacket. As he walked along he could feel the biting cold air but he ignored it and finally reached Keisuke's house. He rang the doorbell and waited until Keisuke's mother answered the door, "Hello Mrs. Hagase. Keisuke home?" He asked her.
"Of course Ryuzaki." Keisuke's mother answered, "He's in his room playing video games or something. You can just go upstairs and see him." She said to the boy letting him in.
The boy, Ryuzaki thanked her and headed upstairs towards Keisuke's room, 'It seems that his mother hasn't noticed that he's disappeared yet' When he reached the top of the stairs, he knocked on Keisuke's door and said, "Hey Keisuke! It's me Ryuzaki!" He opened the door slowly and saw that no one was in the room. It was completely empty but the computer monitor was on and at a site called DigiworldDotNet. Ryuzaki took a quick look out the door and then silently closed it. Before going up to the monitor he quickly went over to a bookshelf and pulled what looked like a small camera that was hidden inside a stack of magazines, "Now lets see what site he was at…" Ryuzaki said to himself, "DigiworldDotNet. Heh! This is it. Lets see what I can find on this site." He said as he started tapping on the keyboard.

Akari, Kyoko, and Keisuke and their digimon followed Gennai from the room full of cradles into the next room. "Whoa. Sudden change in scenery." Keisuke said as he looked around the room. The new room looked like a small clearing in the middle of a forest. The floor was dirt and there were so many pine trees around the edges of the room, that he couldn't even see the walls. The only way he knew that he was still inside a building was that he could still see the ceiling.
"This is the preliminary training room." Gennai said, "It doesn't look too big but it is actually quite large." He pointed at two paths coming off of the clearing, "Follow those paths till you reach the end of the room." He said, "It's about half a mile to the end and there are random small clearings along the way. Also there are three keys hidden on the path also so in order to get into the next room, you'll have to get those keys."
"That sounds pretty easy." Akari said.
"Too easy…" Keisuke said looking around paranoid.
"So how's this training?" Kyoko asked.
"Along the path there are enemy digimon that you might have to defeat in order to continue and there are also digimon guarding the keys. They're all weak in-training level digimon though so you don't need to worry." Gennai said.
"Can you explain these levels to me?" Akari asked.
"No." Gennai said bluntly, "We don't get to that part until after your digimon evolve for the first time." He smiled and said, "Good luck! I'll be keeping an eye on you and will be on the intercom to give you tips. If you're having any problems, go to the phone function on your digivice and dial '911' to reach game administration for help." With that he walked back out the door they entered through which as soon as he went through closed behind him. "Good luck!" A voice from an intercom overhead said.
"So which way should we go?" Keisuke asked.
"I think we should split up." Kyoko said.
"I see… that way we each look for one of the keys and then meet up at the end…" Akari said.
"Sounds perfect! Lets go!" Tsunomon said to Kyoko.
"Wha…!?" Kyoko said, surprised to see the furry, horned ball talk.
"What's wrong?" Tsunomon asked.
"N..nothing…" Kyoko replied, "I didn't think you things understood what we were saying and could respond."
"Of course we understand!" The seal-like Pukamon said, "We would be pretty boring partners if we couldn't."
"It's amazing the kind of advanced A.I. they have these days." Keisuke said as he examined his own digimon, Pagumon, up close, "The graphics are amazing too. You can't see any pixels and you can even see the sweat on its forehead."
"That's because it's hot moron!" Pagumon growled at Keisuke, "Now get out of my face!"
Keisuke backed off a little, "Gennai was right. These guys do have interesting personalities."
"Lets just start moving. The last room had A.C. and hopefully the next room will too." Pagumon said, "You better not get me killed either!" He added.
"You got a scary partner." Akari said to Keisuke, "Are you mean too Pukamon?" She asked.
"Of course not!" Pukamon said with a smile, "Now lets get moving! I cant wait to digivolve for the first time!" He said as he grabbed Akari's hand with his flippers and tried pulling her towards one of the paths.
"Okay then." Kyoko said, "Me and Akari will start off this way," She said pointing at the left path, "And Keisuke can take his partner on the other path."
"sigh Fine then." Keisuke said, "Come on you little blob!" He said to Pagumon who followed him down the right path.
Akari, Kyoko, Pukamon, and Tsunomon all went down the left path.
