Chapter 16:

Irisaeva froze and started to back out of the room. "Gabriel..."

Tai looked at the male and frowned. He seemed normal. medium length straight black hair and ruby eyes. his outfit was a black cloak and black pants and a black top. "What do you want?"

Gabriel looked at Tai and smiled, showing fangs. "Okay things just got weirder...vampires are real too!?" The brunette stated backing up next to Irisaeva.

The girl held on to her friends arm and could feel the male tense. "Yes. They are...I failed to mention that earlier," The princess whispered meekly.

Tai could feel the girl beginning to panic as the vampire crossed the room towards them. Gabriel was inches away from the two when a bright light emitted from one of the computer screens. The raven haired male covered his eyes and vanished in a cloud of black smoke.

Irisaeva let go of Tai's arm and ran towards the computer screen. "Patamon! Renamon! Where are the others?" The female asked smiling.

"Unfortunately they were captured also and so have their partners," Renamon stated.

Irisaeva frowned and sighed as she fell into the computer chair. "This is all my fault! If I never met you guys, if I never interfered then you would all be safe. Gabriel is my problem and mine alone. Renamon I'm coming in, move away from the screen,"

Tai grabbed the females hand as she began to pull out her digivice. "Wait. Do you really think that I would stay here and pretend that nothing happened?" He began.

Irisaeva looked at him shocked. "No. That's just silly. You wouldn't do it anyway..." The princess replied a grin on her face. "The only thing I ever regret is getting involved with your lives. I've made a terrible mess of it,"

Tai hugged the girl. "No. None of us can blame you for this. You just wanted to be normal. You wanted friends and freedom,"

Irisaeva nodded and hugged her friend back. "I know. But all the same I didn't think things through," She pulled away from Tai and smiled. "Now let's go save our friends they need us more than ever now,"

X:x:X

Gabriel growled as he sat in his throne room. He had captured all of the digidestined and their partners except for the one with gravity defying hair and her digimon. The renamon and patamon were much stealthier than he planned and still hadn't captured them. He couldn't get to the boy because he was always with her. He would make sure to get her no matter what. He may not be able to touch her just yet without being burned, but that would all change soon, very soon. If he could just get her away from the boy then maybe he could make him his puppet. He watched as the two remaining digidestined traveled through the computer into the digital world.

"Maybe...getting them here is key..."

X:x:X

Irisaeva landed on something soft and cushiony...and very much Tai. She heard him moan as she got off of him. "Sorry..." She muttered holding out a hand for him.

Tai took it happily and let the girl pull her up. "So where to Renamon?" Tai asked the digimon next ot him.

Patamon sat on Irisaeva's head comfortably. "The castle. It's that way. We should make it there by sunset," the fox like digimon explained briefly.

The two teens nodded and Irisaeva pulled out her digivice. "Okay Renamon. It's time to digivolve!"

Renamon digivolved into Kyubimon and the two humans got on her back.

no one said anything as the large fox took off towards the castle where their friends were held captive. They were all too busy thinking of ways to free their friends from the threat before them.

X:x:X

"Alright! That's the last one! Okay everyone all we need to do now is open the door up," Yamato said as everyone rubbed their now free wrists.

Looking at the door Izzy examined it carefully. He let out a sigh and let his head bang lightly against the metal door. "There's no way we can excape without our digimon. It's impossible! they're the only ones able to break down the door," the genuis stated backing away from the door.

Mimi walked over the her boyfriend and hugged him tightly. "Don't worry Izzy everything will work out," she whispered hiding her own fears.

The group stood thinking of other ways to get out when the door was thrown in. Smoke filtered through the small room and the group started to cough from the amount of smoke filling it. "I don't think this is very healthy," Jyou commented lightening the atmosphere between the group of friends.

Wheh the smoke had cleared the group looked at the now opened door and saw Agumon, Gabumon, and Tentomon standing in front of them. "Hurry up lets get going!" Tentomon shouted flying into the room.

The digidestined didn't waste anytime rushing out of the room and into the hallway. "Where's Palmon, Biyomon, Gatomon, Patamon and Gomamon?" Mimi asked looking around.

"They're taking care of the other digimon. We're getting out of here. Gabriel is too focused on getting Tai and Iris here to pay any attention to everything else," Agumon relpied.

Yamato looked at his friends. "We're going to stay and fight. Iris needs our help and so does Tai. We need to find them ASAP!" he yelled looking at each and everyone of his companions.

"That won't be necessary. We found you," Tai said jumping off Kyubimon's back.

Irisaeva slid off and Kyubimon de-digivolved back to Renamon. "Where's Gabriel Agumon?" the princess questioned all her sweet and innocence gone from her voice.

"He's in the throne room. Watching you guys...or watching what he thinks is you guys...we set up a distraction. Follow me," The yellow dinosaur like digimon said before taking off down the hallway.

Author's note:

I've been busy hope this chap is up to standards for everyone I had to crank it out like no tomorrow to update even though I haven't in a couple months. Sorry about that. Schools almost out for me so I'll be able to finish the last few chapters of this story before going onto my next Digimon fic. Irisaeva will most likely be in it as well, but not focusing around just her, it's going to be SORATO mainly...hopefully. I might not have Iris in the story, but she's my standard girl for Taichi. It may take place after the events of this story...I've figured out something for it.
