Me: I'm sorry it took two weeks to get this out but my internet went down so I couldn't actually see the episode. I hope everyone can forgive me. Again I'm very sorry.
"Mrs Ichijouji is Ken home?" I asked. The other Digidestined were standing around the area apart from Davis and Cody who wouldn't let me go alone.
"Ken, yes he's in his room. Well, I think he is. To be honest he's been awfully quiet today." Mrs Ichijouji said concerned.
"I think I know why, I'd like to talk to him. My friends too." I told her. She nodded.
"Okay, I have to say I was hoping your return would make him open up more but I guess I was wrong." She said concerned as she let us in.
"Don't worry about a thing Mrs Ichijouji. I'm sure Ken will be back to normal soon." Cody assured her. I knocked on Ken's door.
"Ken, please open up." I said after I got no response. Still nothing.
"Oi Ken! You better open this door this minute or I'm taking it and you down!" Davis yelled.
"Davis that's not helping." Cody said. I turned the handle and the door opened. Ken's room was empty with the only sign of life coming from the glowing computer screen. I looked at the screen. "Goodbye to all of you. Your trivial lives will plague me no longer. My destiny awaits." Said the message on the screen.
"Guys we have a problem." I called feeling a surge of panic. Problem was like calling a volcano a small fire.
"I think your right, Ken is probably in the digital world but it's dangerous to just rush in there." Izzy said. I knew he was right but I couldn't help feeling my heart sink. There was so much more chance of him hurting Digimon now he didn't have to avoid detection from his parents and much more chance of him being hurt.
"But the longer we wait the more time he has to plot against us." Kari pointed out.
"We need to make a new plan." Cody said. Izzy went into thinking mode.
"We need to know what Ken's doing. Let's check the computer." Izzy noted moving to the computer we used.
"Does that mean what I think it means?" TK asked furiously. I just started at the almost solid black scene with a sense of dismay.
"Ken is taking over area's in the digital world faster than ever before." Izzy confirmed.
"Well then, let's go." Davis said bluntly.
"We can't afford to be reckless. Remember the expression, fools rush in were angels fear to tread." Izzy said.
"We don't have our angels." I countered. We couldn't afford to wait; surely Izzy could see that.
"Sakura your in no condition to be suggesting plans right now." Izzy pointed out. I held my tongue knowing he was right. It was too personal for me now.
"So what do you think we should do?" Kari asked.
"You know, being a fool is really low on my priority list but I can't just sit here and do nothing." TK agreed with me. Cody picked up the magazine.
"Why do evil geniuses have to be so evil?" He asked rhetorically.
"Uh he doesn't look capable of coursing such trouble, you know." Yolei said.
"He wasn't, he isn't." I told her. I felt Kari put a hand on my shoulder.
"Well he is and don't let yourself forget it. Sakura you have to control your emotions." Izzy said.
"Well I've had enough talk. The clock keeps ticking away and I'm getting ticked off. I want some action." Davis said.
"He's right so let's get it into gear." Kari agreed.
"Yeah." TK added.
"I'm with you. Let's fight" Yolei said. Izzy stood up.
"You've convinced me, no more hesitation." Izzy decided.
"Excellent, Digiport open." Davis said.
"Let's go get that evil cute boyfriend of Sakura's." Yolei added. I blushed.
"He's not my boyfriend." I protested.
"I'll be watching over you, good luck guys." Izzy said.
"It's genius stomping time. Let's go." Yolei said as we entered the portal
"Look at this land of fire, it's like the movie, land of fire." TK said. He wasn't kidding. It was rock, fire, sky, more fire and smoke.
"I know." Yolei agreed. "It sure is hot."
"Five star chilli hot." Davis noted.
"I hate that stuff." I said randomly. We started walking.
"Keep your eyes open, trouble could be anywhere." Davis said.
"But probably near us considering tradition." I pointed out. Right on cue a bunch of Meramon jumped out from one of the lava pools.
"Meramon!" Kari exclaimed. "Meramon are very dangerous, they can burn you with their roaring flame attack or just by touching you."
"Let's show them whose boss." Davis said activating his Digi-egg. We started running to a better spot as one of the Meramon launched an attack, which was met by Flamedramon's fire rockets. The fire rocket was more powerful and went on to hit the Meramon as well but it just made him laugh.
"Don't do that anymore your just tickling him." Davis ordered.
"I don't think fire attacks are going to work on them." Kari noted.
"My turn." Hawkmon said.
"Get them Hawkmon." Yolei told him. Hawkmon Digivolved to Halsemon.
"Tempest wing." He said in the air shooting a typhoon. It just made the flames grow larger.
"Halsemon stop! You're making the flames bigger!" Yolei yelled. Halsemon broke of his attack
"Nothing is working, it's up to you Armadillomon." Cody said having him Digivolve to Digmon. Digmon broke up the ground and sent the Meramon tumbling into the lava. "Way to go." Cody cheered.
"Look!" Kari said. I looked to see the Meramon climbing out of the lava like it was a slow moving river.
"Watch out." Yolei yelled as they launched towards us.
"Nothing stops them." Davis said angrily.
"Here they come." Yolei told us as they landed back on solid ground in front of us. They started to walk towards us.
"My turn?" Patamon asked.
"Let's do it." TK agreed. Pegasusmon joined the ranks of Digimon standing here.
"Tempest wing." Halsemon said again launching his circle lasers.
"It's working." TK said from above the battle on his partner.
"Star Shower!" Pegasusmon said launching his attack.
"Are you ready?" Kari asked glancing at her partner.
"Always am." Gatomon said turning into Nefertimon.
"Rosetta stone." She said launching her pink beams. The last Meramon fell down.
"That's what you get for playing with fire." Kari said.
"Oh no!" TK exclaimed. I looked at him and followed his gaze. Ken was coming over with Skullgreymon.
"No Ken, what have you done?" I asked in horror at the sight.
"It's Skullgreymon." TK said unnecessarily.
"Skullgreymon?" The emperor repeated. Just then Skullgreymon tore at its binds and fell to the ground Ken made a sound of disapproval as he floated safely above the battle. Wormmon said something I didn't quite hear. Skullgreymon took out the last standing Meramon.
"How can we beat that thing?" Davis asked.
"I have no idea." Kari admitted.
"Not even one?" Davis demanded.
"I have one." TK said fearfully.
"What!" Davis looked at him.
"I say we run and then we run some more." He suggested.
"I like that plan." I agreed. The Digimon charged.
"He got Flamedramon." Davis said.
"Digmon no!" Cody yelled.
"Halsemon." Yolei said. Now we were down to two fighters.
"Everyone run." Nefertimon ordered.
"But we have to fight Skullgreymon." Kari protested.
"Yes great idea, stay clustered together so you create an easy target. Get to safety!" Pegasusmon said firmly.
"Dark shot." Skullgreymon said launching his missile. Ken gasped as it headed towards the control spire.
"Run now." I said. The light of the explosion blinded everyone.
"I probably should have put on my goggles." Davis noted.
"You want to play rough." The Emperor said calling something.
"I'm afraid to find out who he's calling." TK admitted. A large group of Darktyrannomon appeared.
"What are those things?" Yolei asked.
"There Darktyrannomon." Cody answered her.
"Why can't we ever fight anything short?" Kari asked they passed us making the ground shake.
"Like some mice?" Yolei agreed.
"Ken, be careful! You don't know what you're dealing with!" I yelled fearfully.
"Oh shut up!" He snapped from his safe spot.
"Fine don't listen to the psychic, be like everyone else. Jeez what happened to the good old days when people listened to me before the long explanation?" I retorted.
"I do listen, when we're on the same side!" He told me as the Darktyrannomon closed in. They all launched their fire attacks at Skullgreymon.
"With all that fire they can bake, boil and braze him. If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen." Davis said.
"Stop your making me want to barbeque." TK told him. It was weird how well their jokes worked together at times. Skullgreymon swatted the Tyrannomon away and grabbed one of them. He chucked so it landed near us.
"He's throwing them around like rag dolls." Davis noted. "Painful." He added as the dust cleared.
"Hope he doesn't get the idea to throw us around." Yolei noted.
"We should leave first." I suggested again as he through another Tyrannomon into the lava.
"He beat them all single handed." Kari pointed out, just then he de-Digivolved back into Agumon. I started to run towards him as Kari mentioned that to the others. Ken descended towards him.
"Leave him alone Ken!" I yelled. The Airdramon picked Agumon up by his tail and started to fly off.
"From defeat I snatch another victory." He said replying to mine and the other's yells.
"TK, Davis, somebody do something! They're getting away!" Kari yelled. Of course she would be the most worried. Agumon was her brother's Digimon after all so they were family in a way.
"Someone tell Izzy, we need to regroup." I ordered.
"Yeah." Davis agreed as we left.
"Tai is going freak when he hears about this." I muttered under my breath.
"My advice is we leave Tai to Kari." TK suggested.
"Oh thanks through me to the wolves." Kari protested.
"Take it from someone who knows wolves, you're the most likely to survive." TK pointed out.
"I missed the wolf reference." Yolei admitted.
"Garurumon. Oh no, all the original Digimon are in danger." I said stopping my eyes wide.
"Double time!" Davis yelled. We all started to run back to the TV.
"Things seem to be going from bad to worse." Cody noted as he struggled to keep up.
"Tell me about it." I muttered.
