Notes:

I apologize for my late update! But here I am again. I've been stressed for a couple of months because of school after I had my holidays in a tropical island without internet for weeks.

Mature, mature things will be mention in this chapter, like previously.

Hmm, and about the suffix. I'm just following what they refer to each other in the anime. It's just weird if they are called only by names. Especially Takeru and Hikari, they are much younger than the rest, so I have no idea how to make a proper POV of them to sound more polite without having them adding suffix in every end of their senior names. Like Sora, Koushirou and Mimi, they are suppose to refer Jou as 'senpai', their senior.

Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy this chapter. If possible, point out some obvious grammar mistakes so I could go back and correct them. I'm sorry if my grammar still hasn't improve, but I have been reading some well written fanfiction for learning purposes and more improvement. hehe.

(Did some changes with this chapter)

Chapter 4

/Taichi

Ugh, this is not good.

We are seperated from the girls and I'm worry sick about them, especially Sora and Hikari, mostly Hikari by the way. Sorry Mimi, but for some reason, you are not so... how to put this delicately? significant. Yes, that's it.

And truth be told, I still don't get why we have to follow these stupid rules. That Kiwimon must be hiding something and I intend to find out. Maybe later, after everyone's asleep, so not to drag them into a mess I have a feeling I will encounter if Kiwimon caught me in the act.

I'll bring Agumon with me, that's for sure.

"Stop pacing around the room Taichi." says Agumon, "You are making me dizzy."

"Yeah, let's just go to sleep before we hear anything scary." Jou adds in an almost trembling voice.

"How am I suppose to sleep? I'm worry about Hikari!"

"Well, I'd say you should check on her, if it werent for the fact that we were warned to stay in our rooms." says Yamato who is resting on one side of the bed, "Oh, by the way, I was thinking. When we all graduate from highschool and move in together we can get a room just like this. You like bunk beds?"

"I can't think about that right now!" I exclaim.

"Do you prefer flannel or cotton sheets?" asks Yamato, eyes lingering on the ceiling, completely ignoring me.

"That's it, I'm not going to stand around waiting in this room while a certain idiotic rockstar decide to discuss an unrelated topic."

"Hey! Nobody calls this hot piece of ass idiotic."

Wow, since when did this guy turned into an insufferable prat? Well, he'd always been one, but never this blunt. Now, he just sounds like a male version of Mimi.

"Taichi, you need to calm down." Joe stands up from his seat, attempts to stop me from heading towards the door.

I glare at him before I respond, "How the hell do you expect me to calm down when my sister is-"

"They are going to be fine Taichi, they have their digimons with them." Yamato says, "If anything are to happen, their room is just across the hall, we will be able to hear them."

Seriously, this comes from the most overprotective person in our group. I still remember him panicking over Takeru a few years ago, and almost cry at that.

"You are one to talk!" the guy is pushing me to my limits and this is me about to begin another round of that fight me and Yamato have had years ago, "What if Takeru is in the other room? You would be worried yourself, panicking and crying like a bitch you used to five years ago!"

I wait for him to maul at me, but to my surprise, he's just laying there rubbing between his eyebrows, and I could almost hear him gritting his teeth.

He is holding back.

The entire room fell into silence, until Yamato slowly rises from the bed before he points his index finger at me, giving me the look he usually had on whenever he is about to explain something to me, rationally. "True, that in the past I'm like you. Worse even. I kept worrying about Takeru, I panicked everytime he is out of my sight. But know this, now, my brother is no longer a child. Do you think he will like it if I constantly checking out on him, having me around him like stamps on letters?"

"Absolutely not." Takeru mummers rather loudly.

"See!" Yamato gives Takeru a momentary look as he nods before he looks back at me, narrowing his eyes in process, "Because I trust him and I believe he is capable of protecting himself and he got Patamon and I'm sure the little guy will do whatever it takes to protect him."

Takeru and Patamon nods in agreement, "I've known Hikari long enough to know that she will want you to trust her and Tailmon, like my brother does to me and Patamon, Taichi-niisan."

Damn.

I hate to admit this, but they're right. Hikari would outright yells at me if I have gone check up on her.

"Look Tai, we know how much you are worried ." I could tell Yamato is trying not to sound too sympathetic. "But, this isn't just about your sister isn't it?" he adds, as he's giving me a look that I'm sure it's a suspicion kind.

"What?" I quirk an eyebrow at the question asked.

What in Ogremon's pants is he talking about?

I could hear Koushirou, who is sitting on the sofa with his laptop on his lap, chuckling behind me. "You are worried about Sora-san too, are you not?" he tells me as I am turning my attention to him. "The loving kind of worry not the friendly kind I mean." he puts in.

Okay... did I just hear wrong?

Did he just said loving? As in I love Sora? That's absurd!

"My point, exactly," Yamato retorts, properly enunciate each word for full effect as he nods and gesture his left hand at the red head boy, "You are not just worried about one person, but two. That's why you have been so restless the moment we are seperated from the girls."

"I second that!" Joe raises his hand, with a grin.

"I third." Takeru adds with a nod.

The look they're giving me suddenly leave me flabbergasted.

"Taichi, are you really in love with Sora?" Agumon asks me, with a smile that reaches his marble green eyes.

I snort in disbelief, "Hell no!" I outright deny, "Don't listen to any of their bullshits you hear me?!"

There's no way in hell that I'm in love Sora!

I'm still a teenager. I don't love. Love is for sissies. My passions are soccer, video games, naked women and sex. Okay, the last part may be something I haven't done, yet, but I'm pretty sure I will. Soon, in fact. Do you know that I almost got to the third base with that hot cheerleader, what was her name? Mayumi? Megumi? Gah, who cares! Until the coach caught us and we haven't seen each other since.

Damn, I almost had her! But hey, I'll look her up when I return.

The point is, Sora is like my best friend since kindergarden. We used to play soccer together, hang out like dudes, play laser tag every weekend and for some weird reason, things get harder ever since she-

Well, ever since she developed.

She's becoming more beautiful with longer eyelashes, dreamier eyes and suddenly have boobs and curves and-

I'm getting easily distracted by her, there's this urge that I can't resist. Sue me! I'm a dude. she can't tease me like that damn it! There's friendship to uphold. If I touch her or caught ogling her, I will be rewarded with a -goodbye forever you pervert- slap on the face.

However, I have this so called solution to the problem that I call 'think of Sora as a man' or 'Sora is a man'. Smart right?

But ever since we arrived in the digital world, this perfect solution of mine hasn't been working very well. Since she will always be around me twenty-four seven, wearing that super hot tennis attire and earlier today when she sweat, I could see her bra through her damp shirt, white and lacy and honestly, it turns me on a little back then. Good thing, Mimi's whining helped keeping it to the minimum.

"Say whatever you want Tai." Yamato merely raises both his hands in defeat, "Sooner or later you will realise that you are in love with Sora!" he utters the last few words with emphasis that triggers everyone, except me, to snicker and suppress their laughter.

"I am not!"

"Sorry guys, I hate to interrupt, but..." we all turns to Koushirou, who suddenly looks very serious after a few chuckles, "I may have found the location of the ring."

Finally! A way out of this lame conversation.

Without saying another word, everyone in the room marches away from their position and are soon circling around Koushirou like a group of mouse circling a big chunk of cheese.

My eyes instantly go for the screen of his laptop, only to find myself staring at a picture of some weird-

Right. I dont even know what that is. Is it a mountain? slopes? houses? why is it all webby? all those green lines going up and down and what the hell are all those yellowy moving thing?

"So? Care to explain what I'm looking at?!" I demand, getting extremely impatient and -whatever it is on screen- is not helping.

"It's a three-dimensional map of this town."

"It doesn't look like a fucking map Koushirou!" I snap at him, pointing at the screen.

"It's a three-dimensional graph of the map, idiot!" Yamato points out before smacking me in the head.

"I know, it's hard to see the figures, but something in this place is doing weird things with my program hence altering the map graphics, affecting the extended capabilities of my entire laptop program, disabling- ." Koushirou explains, and this goes on for another minute, almost two. Boring, boring, boring!

I'm exhausted; my eyes feels heavy and my brains are about to float elsewhere. I don't wan't to hear anymore of Koushirou's yapping.

I shake my head a little in the attempt to stir me away from falling asleep. "Alright Koushirou, get to the point already, the ring." I remind him, emphasizing the last two words.

"It's with..."

"Let me guess," Joe suddenly speaks out of the blue before Koushirou could even finish. "It's with a powerful guardian. It's either in his belly or he's wearing it, or maybe he keeps it hidden in his chamber filled with rotten flesh and bones."

That is just exagerrating.

"Digimons don't eat meats." I snort. "Do they?"

"Uh- yes they do." Gomamon reminds me, pointing at himself, "I love fish."

"I love pork and chicken!" Agumon says in his raspy voice and gleefull expression.

"Yeah, yeah, that's what you guys ate in our world. There's no pig nor chicken here are there?"

"But we usually had them at Gennai's. We all had them last night, remember?" Tentomon reminds us.

Then there's a pregnant pause, though I could almost hear everyone thinking the exact same thing 'That's right, we did. But how? where?'

"So where did they come from? Everything here are datas! And I have not seen any chicken, pig or cow or even a farm." I attempt to explain my confusion, "Where did Gennai-"

"You know what? We are getting off topic here. Focus guys!" Yamato cuts me off before he darts his gaze towards Koushirou. "So, who has the ring?"

"See this red blinking dot on the map?" Koushirou points out, "There it is."

"And that other yellow moving figure over there?" Gomamon asks.

"Apparently, he's the keeper."

"Fuck he's huge!" Yamato croaks, "What is he?"

Koushirou doesn't answer right away, he merely pressed a quick escape button on his laptop and the new image on screen -that appeared behind the weird map previously displayed- is suddenly making everyone eyes wide and alert.

Shave me bald and call me baboon!

Displayed in front of my eyes is what i would call the king of all hercules beetle, he sure looks like one, only better. Even on the screen, I could tell he's a huge digimon. The huge scissor horn defenitely surpassed Kuwagamon's already deadly horn. His frame is all black, with some red in certain parts of his body. I have to admit, he is an impressive digimon. Aside from my already awesome WarGreymon, of course.

"BlackHerculesKabuterimon!" Tentomon screeches in his funny dialect, breaking the silence. "He is the ultimate evolution from AtlurKabuterimon. I've been dreaming for the day I could evolve into one. Well, not as the black corrupted one of course. The real HerculesKabuterimon is all gold and glory! He flies really fast so I've heard." he blabs.

"What?! He's an ultimate level digimon?" Joe's face blenches with fear, "And he is somewhere in this town?"

What has gotten into Jou? He's been acting weird since we depart from Gennai's house. He starts panicking and get scared off too easily, just like the first time we were here. Though back then, he'd been way worse than now.

"Chill Joe, we have WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon here. Two ultimates, against one, not to mention we have six perfects with us. No biggie." I calmly explain to him.

"No biggie? No biggie you said?!" Joe snaps, finally losing his patience. "Remember Piedmon? We were all almost die in figurine forms if it wasn't for MagnaAngemon. You were this confident back then, but in the end all we could do was run."

"Guys, guys. We don't have time for this!" Yamato interups. "Joe, what happend? I thought you were the most rationale here."

Joe immediately froze, his gaze seems distant, until he let out his breath -which I assume he holds on to for quite some time- and immediately apologizes, "I'm sorry Taichi. I shouldn't have."

"That's cool." I assures him, "I know you are just scared for us, I am a bit too. But hey, we need to stay positive, if we don't face this, this whatever his name Kabuterimon..."

"BlackHerculesKabuterimon." Tentomon corrects me.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever." I roll my eyes, "My point is, we need that ring if we are to defeat the rest of them."

"Again, I'm really sorry, but I agree." Joe smiles.

"Um guys, Crocomon is also out there." Koushirou reminds us, as he points on his laptop screen which has changed back to displaying the map.

Right... I almost forget there's another pain in the ass.

"We have two choices here. Avoid Crocomon or defeat him?" Koushirou asks.

"Avoid him how?"Takeru wonders,"He'll caught us eventually."

"We have those fake ears remember?" Joe points out.

"Please, I beg you, don't remind me-" Yamato mutters shakily, "-or the girls."

"But he's still a bad digimon. There's ninety-percent chance he will attack us no matter what we are." the younger blonde reasons.

He's right.

"What do you suggest we do Koushirou?" I question his opinion. He's usually the smart one with strategy.

"I'm not sure either." Srunching his forehead, Koushirou replies hesitantly "Either way, I still need to find his weak point, see which one of our digimon could defeat him." he explains, "I could track him from my laptop, but, he's a cunning one. His track could dissapear for sometime than re-appear somewhere else. I think he's searching out for us."

"That digimon is such a pest and he smells awfull." Gabumon says, wringkling his nose.

"Do you think Kiwimon will tell on us?" Patamon speaks up.

"That!" I points out, " Is a good question . What if those two are accomplish?"

"If they are, don't you think Kiwimon would have already told Crocomon?" Yamato says.

Good point.

"Koushirou," Jou asks, crossing his arms, "Exactly how many digimons are there in this town?"

"From the map, so far..." Koushirou starts checking on his laptop, "Three."

"Kiwimon, Crocomon and BlackHerculesKabuterimon."

"What the hell is Kiwimon doing here? I have this nudging feeling she is up to something." I presume. "Just what are their relation to each other?"

Koushirou looks up at me, "I think it is save to assume that the three are allies. BlackHerculesKabuterimon is defenitely a corrupted digimon and Crocomon is a virus digimon, on the other hand, Kiwimon is a data digimon. I actually don't see her relation with the other two. She might be here for cover up, to hide, lost or probably looking for something."

"She may not be a friendly digimon, but she's not exactly hostile." Gabumon says pointedly.

"Yeah, but why seperates us from the girls?"

"At the moment, let us put her aside. She's not exactly our greatest threat here. Let's focus on Crocomon and BlackHerculesKabuterimon." Yamato suggests as he plops himself down next to Jou.

"I say we go with Koushirou's plan." I speak up as I put a hand on one side of Koushirou's shoulder, "How will you find out about these digimons weakness?"

The red head gives me a small smile before he turns his attention back to his laptop's screen, "Give me one second." he tells me before his investigative side kicks in and hands starting to play on his laptop's keyboard.

We waited not long until Koushirou's mechanical fingers stop, "Turns out, Crocomon is easier to defeat than we thought." he grins.

"Really? How so?" Takeru asks.

"Taichi." Agumon calls out to me, pulling on my soccer shirt before Koushirou could explain.

"Yes?"

"I'm very hungry." he looks at me with his sad puppy eyes.

"If we are to fight, we need energy." Patamon murmurs, his eyes looks weary. "Lots and lots of energy."

Then I realize, none of us have eaten for hours and I have been neglecting the emptiness and rumblings from the inside my stomach for almost half a day.

"For our bellies sake, we really need to sneak out of this room to get some food." Yamato suggests. "We barely have enough food for everyone here."

"I hear you." Gabumon nods as he's holding his round tummy.

"First things first, how are we going to sneak out?" Jou voices out the question on everyone's mind.

The only answer we get was the long lingering empty gazes from each other, followed by desperate sighs.

Man, we are all going to have a long night.

.to be continue.

So, I've decided to separate this chapter into two and the continuation will be on the next chapter. Coming soon!
