"The Ninth Child Revealed"

Here it is. They finally find out who the last Digidestind is. Hope you all enjoy and please review!

So, yeah, I was in big trouble and wasn't able to get out of it this time.

Plus, I had another dream that night, only this time it was about Myotismon killing these two digimon named Gotsumon and Pumpkinmon who are friends with Matt and TK, who had their digimon digivolve to Angemon and WereGarurumon to fight fang face off.

Tai made sure I was locked up at home so I didn't get into any more trouble and I was pouting in a corner with Demiveemon and Kari.

"Hey, Mom, I'm home!" Tai called as he walked in and the phone went off.

"Tai, you're late." Mom called right back.

"I'll get it." He said when no one answered the phone yet.

Agumon walked into our room while Tai was on the phone, only able to hear my brother say Joe's name before the door closed.

Tai then ran into the room and started dumping his stuff on the floor.

"What're you doing?" Agumon asked.

"I'm trying to find my address book." Tai said as he looked through his books.

"You're never gonna find it. You're way too messy." Demiveemon chirped as he jumped down from my bed and walked over to the pile.

"Is my grounding up yet?" I asked sitting upside down on my bed.

"Well, if you didn't get into so much trouble you wouldn't be grounded." Tai said.

"Not my fault. Besides, if I didn't get attacked then XV-Mon never would-a digivolved into V-Dragomon." I said pushing myself up right.

"You shouldn't bother tryin' to find your book because Kari is the one we're looking for. Get over it. I'm right, you're wrong. The Crest knows all. Don't question it." I said.

"Daisuke, knock it off! I refuse to believe that my other sister is involved in this mess. It's bad enough you've been put in danger, but I don't need Kari to be a part of it too." He said standing up glaring.

"Well, too bad!" I yelled standing up as I returned the glare.

"You have no control over it, Tai. If Kari is the Ninth Child, then we can at least protect her better." Agumon said.

"Don't take her side." Tai said.

"Why not? She's right." Demiveemon said.

My brother kept silent after that as he started looking for his address book again, but he couldn't find it at all.

So we left the digimon in our room as we went to join Kari to watch TV and eat some watermelon for dessert.

My hand was clenched over my Crest as it pulsed and felt warm like it was alive, and it sent the image of the Crest of Light to me along with Gatomon, Wizardmon and Kaitoumon being abused by Myotismon.

They really didn't have any choice but to join the side of evil if they were treated that way.

The news went on about strange monster sightings along with young women that are healthy, but wind up fainting in the streets from blood loss.

"Sudden anemia?" Tai asked shutting the TV off as the phone rang.

"I'll get it." Tai said as he got up and answered it as the digimon started eating watermelons under the coffee table.

"Yellow? Oh, hi Matt. Did you just see the news? You did? So that report on television about the monsters was-"Tai asked as he walked into our room.

Great, more trouble in paradise.

V-Mon then popped out from under the table, the food giving him enough energy to digivolve to his Rookie form while Agumon chased after Tai.

"Miko!" Kari cried making me look over to see her chase the cat out onto the balcony and I followed.

"Where do you think you're going? You can't come out here at this hour. Go back inside." Kari said setting the cat down and she trotted in.

"Good kitty." My sister said as she closed to the sliding glass door behind us as we both looked out towards the city.

All of a sudden, Wizardmon swooped in towards us.

"Who are you?" Kari asked as we backed away.

"It's Wizardmon!" I said.

"How is he able to fly like that?" Kari asked.

"Oh, well…" Wizardmon trailed off as Gatomon jumped over, doing a few tricks as V-Mon ran outside.

"Oh, it's you. Hello again. You're Agumon and V-Mon's friend, aren't you? How come you ran away last time I saw you?" Kari asked.

A flash of black came in and Kaitoumon was standing there as well.

"Nice work last time my worthy adversary." He said smirking to my dragon.

"Thanks, but why are you guys all here?" V-Mon asked.

We watched as Wizardmon pulled something out of his pocket and placed it in Gatomon's paw and gently pushed her forward.

"What's that thing? Can I see it?" Kari asked as she placed her hand over it.

The digivice then glowed, confirming my suspicions as my Crest also glowed along with my digivice.

"Wizardmon, tell me, id this girl the Ninth Digidestind?" Gatomon asked stunned.

"Yes." He said taking the device.

"I knew it!" I cheered making Kaitoumon and V-Mon chuckle.

"Well then, who is her digimon?" Gatomon asked softly.

"I think you know. You were waiting for someone, try to remember." Wizardmon said.

"Hold on, my memories starting to come back. Yes, I was definitely waiting for someone. Ever since I was Nyaromon I was so lonely. Every day I just kept waiting and waiting. The season's changed and the years rolled by and still I kept waiting, but no one ever came. Then when I became Salamon, I started searching. I went on a journey, but when I finally found someone I was not waiting for. Instead I found evil and darkness. Myotismon. Then those days of torture and despair began and I started to forget…forget that I was waiting for someone. Searching for someone." Gatomon said.

"Well, what are you guys talking about? What does any of this have to do with me?" Kari asked.

"Kari, Daisuke! Get away!" Tai yelled as he ran out with Agumon.

"What's the matter, Tai?" my sister asked.

"What're you digimon want?" The child of Courage demanded.

"Wait; listen to what I have to say." Wizardmon said.

"Kari, you and Daisuke get over here. Those three are evil digimon." Tai said.

"No, they're not evil. Gatomon has been searching for me and the Ninth Digidestind Child." Kari said stepping forward.

Agumon shot out his Pepper Breath, nearly hitting Kari, but Gatomon pushed her out of the way and was hit herself, V-Mon jumping over and catching her.

"Are you out of your mind?" I yelled grabbing Kari and helping her up.

"Kari, are you OK?" Tai asked.

"Oh, no! Gatomon!" Kari cried.

"You all right?" she asked as my dragon helped the cat stand up properly.

"I'm fine, this is nothing compared to what I've been through." Gatomon smiled as she was back on her feet smiling at V-Mon in thanks.

"Did you see that? Gatomon saved Kari." Tai said amazed.

"Are you two really related to this idiot?" Kaitoumon asked.

"Now that you remember, do you understand?" the spell caster asked.

"Yes, I was waiting for the Digidestind human I belonged with. That's you, Kari. You're the Ninth Digidestind." Gatomon smiled.

"You were waiting just for me?" Kari asked.

"I've been searching forever and ever for you." Gatomon said as she hugged her partner around the waist.

"You could've just called. Guess what, Tai, Gatomon's my digimon. Now I've got one too." My sister said.

"Yes! I told ya so!" I cheered as I poked my brother's side as I jumped around in a happy dance, Kaitoumon and V-Mon chuckling.

"Don't be silly, Kari. That doesn't make sense." Tai said.

"It makes perfect sense considering she's the Ninth Digidestind." Wizardmon said.

"You really should listen to this little sweetheart here." Kaitoumon said patting my head.

"That's right and I'm her digimon. No matter what happens, I'll always protect her." Gatomon swore.

"Sounds legit to me." V-Mon nodded with a smile.

"Then why are you a part of Myotismon's army and just who are these guys?" Tai asked.

"This is Kaitoumon. Don't worry, he's a good guy." V-Mon assured.

"And he is called Wizardmon. He put himself in great danger to bring me this digivice. He's my friend." Gatomon said.

"But how do I know if I can trust them or not especially after everything Kaitoumon's done to Daisuke?" Tai asked not looking convinced.

"Frankly, I don't care whether you trust me or not, but I'm going to follow Gatomon as long as she needs me." Wizardmon said.

"Talk about friendship. They can't be evil at all." I said smiling.

"Here, you take the device." Wizardmon said holding out the digivice to Tai to take.

"Why give it to Tai? It belongs to Kari." Agumon said as his partner took the digivice.

"She can't be seen with it. If Myotismon finds out she's the ninth Child and Gatomon is her digimon, then he'll destroy Gatomon and he won't rest until he finds Kari. If you have the digivice, then the secret will be safe." Wizardmon explained.

"OK, I'll take it, but you better not be double crossing us. What's next?" Tai asked.

"Your middle sister needs her Crest. The real one." Wizardmon said.

"The real one?" Tai asked as Gatomon held out one of those copies that Kaitoumon had shown me before.

"This Crest is just a copy that was created to find the digivice. Myotismon is the only one with access to the real Crest. We've got to get it back." She said.

"Leave everything to us." Kaitoumon said as he, Wizardmon and Gatomon walked over to the edge of the balcony.

"Wait, where's Myotismon's hideout? We'll come with you and we'll help you." Tai said.

"No. it's too dangerous." The spell caster said as he picked up the cat and took to the air, Kaitoumon flapping his wings and following him.

"Be careful, Gatomon!" Kari called.

"Don't do anything stupid!" I called.

"Yeah, we still have a match to finish!" V-Mon called.

"Can we trust them?" Agumon asked.

We have to. We have no choice." Tai said.

We all stayed out there watching as they disappeared into the night, sending out our wishes to them.

Myotismon, you better not hurt any of our friends or else you'll get to see just how scary I can be when I'm mad.

Thunder then boomed as the sky lit up near an island in the center of the lake.

"Look there, up in the sky!" Tai said.

"Wizardmon and Gatomon are in a fight." Agumon said.

"Oh, no. I hope they're not being hurt." Kari said worried.

"Whoa, let's go!" Tai said.

"Right!" Agumon nodded as the two ran off.

"Wait up! I wanna go too!" Kari called.

"I can't risk you getting hurt. Wait here with Daisuke and V-Mon so they can keep you safe." Tai said as he ran off.

"Taichi!" I called.

Kari whimpered in worry as she turned back to watch the sky where the fight was going down.

"Don't worry. Gatomon's actually a Champion level and is very strong as long as she has her Power Ring. She's a tough kitty. Don't worry so much. She also has Kaitoumon and Wizardmon to help her." V-Mon assured her by placing a hand on her shoulder.

She smiled at him gratefully, but then looked out at the storm.

"Oh, I wonder what's taking them so long. Oh, come back, Gatomon. I couldn't stand it if anything happened to you, but I'm sure Tai and Agumon will take good care of you." Kari said.

I smiled at that and hugged my sister.

"She's a tough one. Don't worry about her so much. I've seen her take down three digimon twice her size easy. She'll be fine." I said as we hugged each other, watching the sky as it stopped storming.

I don't want to worry her even more than she already is, but I'm getting that feeling again…that something terrible has happened to our three friends.

Please, be safe everyone.
