"How can we contact any of your friends?" Lee asked.

Izzy soon got an idea of how they could call their friends.

"Well, at least my sister can't call me three times a day." Mrs. Kamiya commented to the TV as Izzy rushed downstairs to find a way to contact their friends. "Are you leaving so soon?" she then asked the fleeing boy.

"Won't be long, save me a piece of cake!" Izzy dashed out the door.

"That was odd." Estelle said.

"What's the matter with you?" Mrs. Kamiya noticed her son was rather wore out.

Tai merely groaned and crashed on the couch.

"The phones are out and we can't get on the internet." Lee said.

"Hey, guys, look!" Estelle pointed to the TV as it advertised an emergency service on the phone to dial 171 for easy access.

"Perfect." Lee smiled.

"I don't think this is gonna be as easy as it sounds, Tai." Estelle said as he used the phone to call the emergency service to leave a message.

He soon left a message for Mimi which reminded his mother of something. "Oh, that reminds me, you've got this postcard in the mail from Mimi."

"WHAT?!" Tai gasped before swiping the card from his mother's hands. "Mimi's on vacation in Hawaii?! Oh, Mimi..."

"'Hawaii is paradise, I don't have a care in the world and I'm wishing you were here'." Estelle read the postcard.

Tai groaned in misfortune.

"Hi, Izzy, welcome back." Mrs. Kamiya smiled as her son's friend came back through the door.

"Thank you," Izzy smiled before looking at his friends. "So, when's everybody coming over?"

Tai groaned and flopped onto the couch yet again.

"They're not." Estelle said.

"Oh." Izzy frowned.

"Now what?" Lee groaned.

"Don't worry, I got something that will solve our problem." Izzy said.

"What happened to the good old day when we were a team?" Tai sulked as they went back in the computer room.

"We're still a team," Izzy replied. "Lee and Estelle can help too. We're just kinda spread out right now."


"By the way, where'd you disappear off to?" Lee asked Izzy.

"I went to pick this up." Izzy held out a device.

"What is it?" Tai asked.

"A satellite uplink," Izzy replied. "We can get into the internet by tapping into the Military Satellite System."

"That's genius!" Estelle smiled.

"How does it work?" Tai added.

"Well, do either of you know what a 'SumnaConductor' is?" Izzy replied.

"A guy who works part time on a train?" Tai shrugged.

"A semiconductor is a solid substance that has a conductivity between that of an insulator and that of most metals, either due to the addition of an impurity or because of temperature effects. Devices made of semiconductors, notably silicon, are essential components of most electronic circuits." Estelle and Lee explained.

"Uh, exactly." Izzy smiled to them.

"I thought it was a man that worked part time." Tai said.

Lee and Estelle sighed sharply as Izzy went to work so they could get help for the Digimon World and their own world.


"Is it hooked up yet?" Tai groaned.

"I'll check the messages to see if anyone called back yet." Izzy typed on the keyboard.

"Oh, I almost forgot!" Tai sat up instantly.

There was a new message from Matt.

"Whew." Lee smiled.

'Augh, I gotta go, Grandma fell asleep on TK again.' Matt said before hanging up.

"Call Matt!" Izzy beamed before calling back.

"I knew somebody on the team would come through!" Tai smiled in excitement.

"Time to call him back." Estelle smiled.

"Hey, Matt, did you and TK bring your Digivices with you?" Tai asked once he got a hold of their friend.

"Hope so." Lee said.

Matt then asked TK if he packed their Digivices.

'Of course we have 'em, what's going on?' TK asked.

"You better explain what's hoping on Izzy." Estelle said.

Izzy told the brothers of what was going on in the Digimon World. And where they were going to help, but they had to get to a computer.

'Guys, the closest thing we have to a computer is an egg-timer, we're going in town to find one.' Matt replied.

"Alright." Estelle said.


"At least we're in business." Lee smiled.

They soon saw that they were back online.

"It's working, we're back online!" Lee cheered.

"Now let's exterminate that bug!" Izzy added in bravely with determination.

They soon saw that Infermon wasn't in the phone company anymore.

"He left the phone company?" Izzy questioned. "Now where is he?"

"Look, Infermon sent us another email." Estelle said.

"This is really weirding me out." Lee commented.

"What's it say?" Estelle asked.

"'I'm close to him'," Tai read aloud. "Close to who?!"

"He's in America!" Izzy replied.

"He doesn't even have a Green Card." Tai commented.

"With him exploring the internet, I think he can go anywhere he wants." Lee said.


The ones watching could see the power all over the world going haywire.

"Where is he now?" Lee asked.

"I hope your friend Matt's on the way." Estelle said to Tai and Izzy as she stared out the window blankly.

"I'm sure he is." Tai said.

"So Izzy, where is Infermon now?" Lee asked.

"I better email Willis and let him know that Infermon is heading in his direction," Izzy replied after drinking his beef jerky shake. "I do have one question though. What do you think that Digimon would've been like if it was never attacked?"

"I have a question too," Tai said before glaring at his friend. "Why are you still drinking that junk?!"

"Look, just because you don't like to eat healthy doesn't mean I don't." Izzy defended.

"Don't say I didn't warn you." Tai shook his head.

They soon got a call on the computer.

"Matt!" Tai and Izzy leaned in.

'We've got the DigiVice.' Matt told them.

'Now what?' TK added in.

"We'll get Jedi to get your Digimon onto the internet." Estelle said.

'Wait, who are you?' TK asked. 'You're pretty.'

Estelle blushed. "I'm Estelle Fudo and this is my boyfriend, Lee Clark."

"And are you two at a barber shop?" Lee asked as he saw someone in the background.

'It was the best we could do for now.' Matt replied as one man complained to the barber about his ear almost getting cut off.

'You kids today are so smart." an older man commented.

'I still can't set the timer on my VCR.' an older woman added in.

"How's it going with getting Gabumon and Patamon on the internet?" Estelle asked Tai.

"The transfer is almost completed." Tai smiled as Izzy chugged down another beef jerky shake.

"Seriously?" Lee asked Izzy.

"You gonna have yours?" Izzy smiled.

"Izzy, you're the bravest kid I've ever know." Tai muttered.

"Well, here we go." Estelle said as she and Lee brought out their digivices.

"You guys want your shakes?" Izzy took the extra glasses.

"They're all yours." Lee forced himself to say.

Estelle and Lee soon went inside the internet. Tai and Izzy waved as they went back into their Digiforms.
