Digimon Tamers 2

Tamers side
Chapter 2: After effects, and consequences
It has now been just about five days since the digimon tamer known as Takato Matsuki had gone missing. Everybody connected to him in some way have all been taking it pretty hard but most especially his parents and the other tamers.
Takato's parents bakery has been closed ever since he disappeared. And they haven't seemed to be they're cheerful selves since he had supposedly ran away.
Kazu and Kenta, Takato's long time friends haven't even done one thing fun since Takato ran away. They were usually found now a days sitting in the dinosaur structure in the park talking with each other about where Takato might be by now.
Jeri had stopped talking after having accused Rika for Takato's disappearance. And thus made the situation even worse for the tamers. For one thing they were now also worried about Jeri since she was no longer talking to people. The second thing was that the tamers had asked Rika if she may have been the cause of Takato running away.
This question being asked, Rika confessed that she and Takato had had a fight and it may very well have been her fault.
Upon hearing this news the tamers and Mr. and Mrs. Matsuki cut Rika out of a considerable deal of their conversations.
The effect. Rika kept to herself in her room only coming out when it was absolutely necessary.
Henry had tried to go and see Rika to try and reassure her that it wasn't her fault but whenever he tried he was told to go away by her.
Ryo for the most part acted like Henry, trying to get the others to cheer up and to stop worrying.
He and Henry had so far done an excellent job on keeping the truth of where Takato was a secret from the others. Even Hypnos had no idea where Takato was.
Yes that's right Hypnos got involved in looking for Takato on the third day of Takato being missing. But so far they haven't been of any help to the search. Because unlike the others Hypnos wasn't just looking for one person, they were looking for many people.
Their most recent experiment had been stolen the night Takato had disappeared. The digimon destabilizer. It had been designed to disrupt digimon in the proximitry area once it was turned on so digimon wouldn't be a threat if they ever got to the real world somehow.
Hypnos also knew that if the device was to fall into the wrong hands there could be some real trouble in the future.
*Morning. Henry's house*
It was probably around mid-morning when Henry awoke with a start, because of a knock on his door.
"Henry a boy named Ryo is hear to speak with you." Came Henry's mother's voice.
Henry got up off his bed with a groan and opened the door. His mother obviously didn't know Ryo was a tamer or that he was famous.
When the door was opened it revealed Ryo standing outside of it.
"We've gotta talk." Ryo said as he went into Henry's room and closed his door. Once the door was closed Ryo turned towards Henry and started. "Have you gotten any word from Takato yet?"
"Only the message I got from him saying he had made it to the digital world, and telling me he had found Terriermon." Henry responded getting to the point.
"Contact him. Tell him how the others are taking his disappearance... And while you're at it, ask him how his progress in finding the other digimon is going." Ryo said as he left the room.
Henry stared at the spot Ryo had just been standing. 'If only it was that easy...' Henry thought to himself as he sat down at his computer and started typing away.
Henry's message
"Takato how are you doing? You haven't sent me a message for about a week now. Everybody here is starting to really get worried about your disappearance. Jeri hasn't spoken to anyone really, and Rika. I think she blames herself that you've disappeared. That fight you two had must've been pretty bad, she won't even come out of her room to go to school. Well anyways send me a message as soon as you can letting me know if you're okay and your progress in finding the digimon.
Ps. I could really use some excuses if the others start to ask me where you are.
Pss. I really hope Terriermon hasn't been to much of a bother to you."
Henry finished writing the message and looked at the time. 1:30 P.M.
'Well I hope you get this message Takato...' Henry thought to himself as he sent the message and turned off his computer.
'I should go see how Kazu and Kenta are today...' Henry thought as he was eating his lunch. Fried eggs... It was the only thing Henry had a problem with eating. 'This... could take awhile...' Henry thought as he turned the food over to it's other side. Burned to high heaven... 'Alright where's the bread!'
An hour later Henry was walking towards the place in the park Kazu and Kenta hang out anymore. When he got there he found Kazu and Kenta in deep conversation about where Takato could be.
"Hey guys what are you up to?" Henry asked as he climbed into the dinosaur shaped structure.
Kazu turned his head in Henry's direction. "We're trying to figure out where Takato is." He said as he turned his head back to the world map the two had in between them.
Henry would've laughed it it wouldn't of given away his, Ryo's, and Takato's secret. The idiots had it upside down.
"We think he might be hiding at his cousins place in Okinawa." Kenta said turning towards Henry.
Henry put his hand on his chin to show he was thinking. "That is a possibility..." Henry finally said making it sound completely convincing.
"SWEET! ARE WE GENIOSES OR WHAT!" Kazu cheered for the first time in days.
"We should tell the others about this." Kenta said as he and Kazu jumped out of the dinosaur and ran in the direction of Jeri's house.
'Maybe I should check up on Rika...' Henry thought as he jumped down out of the dinosaur as well, and headed in the direction of Rika's house.
When Henry got there six minutes later, he was greeted be Rika's mother.
"Oh hello Henry. Are you here to see Rika?"
"Yeah. How's she doing?" Henry asked as he was let into the house.
"...Well... you know her..."
"I see..." Henry said as he made his way once again to Rika's room.
He had just started to knock on the door when he heard Rika once again yell.
"Go away!" Henry not willing to give up as easily this time spoke.
"Rika it's me Henry..."
"Go away Brainiack!" Was Rika's response.
"The tamers are getting together because Kazu and Kenta think they might have figured out where Takato is." That did the trick. Henry heard everything in her room grow quite. Then he heard foot steps coming towards him from the other side of the door.
The door opened to reveal Rika. She looked about the same as she always looked except that her eyes looked blood shot.
"What...?"
"Yeah they think Takato may be hiding at his cousin's in Okinawa."
"Well I hope they're right for a change." Rika said as she closed the door.
"Rika don't blame yourself about Takato running away." Henry said as he heard the door click locked. "It's just as much my fault too... I mean I helped him do it..."
"It's not that simple!" Came Rika's response.
"Then tell me what's bothering you. Maybe I can help."
"No! Now go away!" Rika said from behind the door.
'Fine... Why does it seem like I just make thing worse for people?' Henry asked as he left the house, heading back to the park.
*5:18 P.M. At the Park*
All the tamers except for Takato for obvious reasons and Rika were now gathered together in the park.
"So you think Takato's hiding in Okinawa?" Jeri asked Henry, Kazu, and Kenta.
"Yeah. It's one of those places people would want to go to too unwind and relax." Kenta said to the others.
"Well it would be a perfect place for him to hide..." Ryo said to the others. "I mean, like Kenta said it's a perfect place to relax. And if he really did leave because of that fight between him and Rika then that's the place he would wanna go right?"
"I guess you're right." Jeri said agreeing with them. "So how do we get him back here?"
"I'll go and talk with his parents." Ryo said as he walked off.
"Well. The rest of us should be getting back to our homes." Henry said as he and Suzy walked away from the others and back to their house.
*Hypnos*
"Riley any new leads on who it was who stole the Digimon Destabilizer?" A tall blond haired man wearing a black suit and sunglasses asked as he walked into the room.
"Yeah. We've gotten a lucky break Yamaki." Riley said to her boss. "The culprit left finger prints.
The man known as Yamaki let a smirk cross his face at hearing this news. "Excellent..."
*9:30 P.M. Henry's house*
Henry was currently laying in bed thinking about where Takato could be in the digital world and how many digimon he had found by now.
Suzy was also in his room playing with her toys, and looking through the pictures Henry had of all the tamers and their digimon. That is until Henry's computer monitor flashed.
Henry bolted strait up in bed and got up as quick as he could to read the message.
Takato's message
"Henry it's me Takato. Sorry for not sending any messages but I've barely had time to rest we were chasing Renamon for a good five days. So now it's me, Terriermon, Meramon, and Renamon. Renamon said she's seen Gaurdromon and MarineAngemon entering the machine zone, so that's where we're headed next. As for excuses, well I'm not asking you to lie to them. Just speak half the truth if they ask.
Ps. Terriermon has been like the little brother I never had...
*End of message*
Henry broke out laughing at reading the last line of Takato's message. Knowing exactly what Takato meant. Terriermon could be a real pain but could also give you a lot of fun times.
"Henry... You're scaring me." Suzy said backing out of his room.
'What was that about...?' Henry asked himself as he turned off his computer. A minute later he was on the phone with Ryo.
"You sure nobody's listening?" Ryo asked to Henry.
"Yeah. Only phone in the entire house." Henry said to Ryo.
"Alright so what's this about?"
"I got a reply from Takato." Henry said as he looked behind him to make sure nobody was listening.
"What did it say?"
"He said he had found Renamon and one of our friends Meramon. He also said that Renamon saw Gaurdromon and MarineAngemon heading into the Machine zone, so they're headed there next."
"WHAT!? THE MACHINE ZONE!" Ryo said in alarm.
"Is that bad?" Henry asked confused.
"Oh it's bad. There's this one very powerful digimon there. He attacks anything just because they exist."
"What!? What's the digimon!?" Henry asked alarmed by this news.
"It's name is..."
