Chapter 25
Last time: (Henry) TK and Yolei went on their first date which went pretty well. Meanwhile, my group made it to Azulongmon's place. There he told us that Ken and I would be able to biomerge like the tamers. Unfortunately we can't leave the tamers' digital world until that is done, so for now we are looking for allies to help us out.
Summary: Something chases Kari, Ken, Henry, Ryo and the twins.
~Kari's Group~
The next morning everyone woke up bright and early except for Kari who was still in bed asleep.
"Is she ok?" Willis asked still seeing her asleep.
"Don't worry she's just really tired." Kouichi said.
"How do you know that?" Willis asked.
"We were talking last night." Kouichi answered.
"About what?" Willis asked.
"I don't remember." Kouichi answered quickly. Ken waited for Willis to walk away then went over to Kouichi.
"That's a lie." Ken said to Kouichi.
"I know." Kouichi said.
"She was really dreaming about the dark ocean wasn't she?" Ken asked. Kouichi just nodded.
"OK." Ken said.
"You guys ready?" Takato asked walking up to the two other boys.
"Yep." Ken said. Everyone finished packing up and left the house.
"Well that was a nice place to stay." Michael said.
"So where to now?" Willis asked. "
Probably to find some allies" Kari answered.
"Right but where?" Willis asked.
"Anywhere I guess." Ken answered.
"Henry?" Kouichi said.
"Well first I would need a list of allies." Henry said.
"Ooh good idea. Can we rest too?" Guilmon said.
"Sure why not." Michael said. Everyone stopped and started laughing.
"Anything for you." Kari said.
"Alright let's make the list." Ken said.
"Let's do it on the d-terminal." Michael said.
"We can do it off mine." Kari said.
"Hey you should probably do one for out group as well." Takuya said.
"I can do one for the other group." Willis said.
"Ken why do you and Willis work with us, Kari and Michael can work with the tamers." Takuya suggested.
"Good idea then they can trade." Kouichi said.
"Alright then let's get to work." Henry said. The kids separated into their groups and started working on the list. After a while they all met up again and exchanged the lists. "Alright now what?" Kari asked.
"We continue walking." Kouji said.
"Where too?" Willis asked.
"Follow me, I know where to go." Takato said.
"Oh boy." Ken said.
"Don't worry it'll be fine." Willis said.
"You know you just met him right?" Ken said.
"Yah but he seems like Davis." Willis said.
"Well that's true." Kouji said.
"He's also like Takuya." Kouichi said.
"Davis is a good friend of mine." Willis said.
"He's also friends with Takato and Takuya." Kouji said.
"Did you guys bond quickly?" Willis asked.
"Not really it took some time." Kari said.
"And still is." Kouichi said.
"That seems reasonable if you're such a big group." Michael said.
"Sure does." Willis said.
"As time goes on, we're slowly becoming friends." Ken said.
"I wonder how the others are doing?" Takato sighed.
"I'm sure they're fine." Kari said.
"Yah I guess you're right." Takato said.
"As long as they're not fighting each other." Terriormon said. Everyone stopped and looked at him.
"Terriormon." Henry said.
"What?" Terriormon.
"Should he have said that?" Willis asked.
"Probably not." Gatomon said.
"But it's true." Terriormon whined.
"Still" Kari said.
"I give up." Terriormon said. Everyone started laughing. In the distance, Kari noticed some fog covering the area.
"Kari are you ok?" Willis asked.
"There some fog over there." Kari answered.
"Willis looked over in Kari's direction and saw nothing.
"What do you mean?" Willis asked.
"Hey you two is everything alright?" Takuya asked.
"Yep everything is fine." Willis said.
"Are you sure?" Takuya asked.
"Yah we're fine." Kari said.
"Kari?" Kouji asked.
"I thought I saw fog." Kari said.
"Fog?" Henry asked.
"Yah over there." Kari said pointing in the direction that she saw it in earlier. "I see it." Kouji said.
"I see it too." Henry said.
"That's weird Willis and Takuya couldn't see it." Kari stated.
"That's weird." Kouji said.
"Hey wait a minute." Henry called out to the rest of the group.
"What's wrong?" Ken asked.
"Any of you guys see that fog over there?" Kouji asked.
"Well I can't" Michael said.
"Takato?" Kari asked.
"Nope I can't." Takato answered.
"What about the rest of you?" Michael asked.
"Yep I see it." Ryo said.
"Me too." Ken said.
"What about you?" Michael asked Kouichi.
"Same here." Kouichi said.
"So why is it us four can't see it?" Willis asked.
"Maybe you guys aren't looking hard enough." Kari suggested.
"True." Michael said.
"If that's the case then why was it easy for you guys to see it?" Willis said.
"We're not sure." Kari answered.
"I guess it's a mystery then." Michael said.
"And always will be." Willis said.
"Not for us." Ken said softly.
"What was that?" Kari asked.
"Us seeing the fog." Ken said.
"Well since you me Kouji and and Kouichi all hold the key to light and darkness. It was easy for us." Kari said.
"Right, but Henry and Ryo how did they see it?" Ken said.
"Maybe because we're away of what you're going through." Henry said.
"Ken we met a long time ago in the digital world and you pushed me out of the way when the dark spores came" Ryo said.
"Kari you and I have a strong friendship you let me learn about your powers." Henry said.
"I guess that could be it." Kari said.
"So where did the fog come from?" Ken asked.
"Maybe the dark ocean." Kari suggested.
"That could explain why the others couldn't see it." Ken said.
"So why is it here?" Kari asked.
"Who knows." Ken said.
"Maybe we're supposed to go towards it." Kari said.
"What?" Ken asked.
"It might want us to go to the dark ocean." Kari said.
"Hey are you guys coming?" Takato asked. The six looked up and noticed the others were far ahead of them.
"Coming." Ken said.
"But the fog." Kari said.
"Ignore it." Ken said.
"But" Kari said.
"It might go away if we leave it alone." Ken said.
"Oh ok." Kari sighed. Ken turned around and noticed the fog disappeared.
"See I told you it's gone now." Ken said.
"You're right." Kari sighed.
"Uh Ken maybe not." Kouji said. The fog had changed into a cloud and started following them. "
Kari was right we shouldn't have ignored it." Kouichi said.
"So what should we do?" Kouji asked.
"How about run." Kouichi said.
"The others will think we're crazy." Kouji said.
"Who cares." Kouichi said.
"Ok the." Kouji sighed.
"Let's go." Kari said. The six started running and quickly passed the other four who joined in the back.
"Hey what's going on?" Michael asked.
"Don't ask, just run." Kari said. The boys said nothing and continued running. Kari stopped when they passed a huge boulder.
"Is it still following us?" Kari asked panting.
"I don't think so." Ken said.
"So why were we running?" Takato asked.
"Who knows." Takuya said.
"Alright, I think it's time to take a break." Henry said.
"good idea.' Ken said.
"I think that cloud disappeared." Ryo said.
"What cloud?" Willis asked.
"I don't know." Michael said.
"Maybe it's the thing we can't see." Willis suggested.
"Seems reasonable." Michael said.
"So where are we going?" Willis asked.
"Rika met up with a couple of digimon the first time we came here. So I think we should go to them first." Takato said.
"Why only Rika?" Takuya asked.
"Well, she went after Kazu and Kenta who got separated from the group by a data stream." Takato said.
"I hate to say this but the cloud is back." Kouji said.
"Do we have to run some more?" Kouichi asked.
"We can't it'll continue following us." Ken said.
"Told you." Kari said.
"Ok so now what? Ken asked rolling his eyes.
"Maybe we need to go towards it." Kari said.
"And do what?" Henry said.
"Go through it." Kari said.
"What?" Ken said. "
Are you crazy?" Gatomon asked.
"She's right." Kouichi said.
"We have no other choice." Kouji said.
"It's too risky." Ryo said.
"Ryo's right." Ken said.
"Then you three stay, the twins and I will go through." Kari said.
"No. I'm coming with you." Ken said.
"If Ken's going, then I'm going." Henry said.
"Don't forget about me." Ryo said.
"So then it's settled, all six of us are going with out digimon." Kari said.
"I guess so.' Kouji said.
"Well then let's do it."Kari said. The six walked towards the cloud.
"It's not moving." Ken said.
"See I told you." Kari said.
"Ok so how do we get in?" Henry asked.
"Maybe with the digivice." Kari said.
"Maybe." Ken said.
"I think we should give it a try." Kari said.
"Alright then." Henry said. Everyone reached into their pockets and reached for their digivice.
"Ok now what?" Kouji asked.
"Hold it up towards the cloud." Ken suggested. A light came out of the digivices and went towards the cloud.
"Ok what now?" Kari asked.
"Go towards it?" Ken said.
"I guess so." Kouji said.
"One of us should go first and try." Henry said.
"Who's going to do that?" Kari asked.
"I will." Ken said.
"Good luck." Kari said.
"Thanks" Ken said. He walked towards the cloud with his digivice up. A path opened up and he dissappeared.
"Where did he go?" Kari asked.
"He went into the cloud." Kouji said.
"Alright who's next?" Ryo asked.
"I guess I am." Kari said. She walked towards the cloud then disappeared like Ken. The twins went next followed by the tamers.
"Where are we?" Kouji asked.
~Takuya, Takato, Michael and Willis~
"Ok I think we should continue walking, we rested long enough." Takuya said.
"I agree." Michael said.
"What do you guys think?" Willis asked the other six but there was no answer.
"Henry, Ryo?" Takato said turning around.
"They're gone." Takuya said.
"Where could have they gone?" Willis asked.
"Kari Ken" Michael yelled. No answer.
"If you guys are hiding, you can come out now." Willis said.
"We give up." Takuya said.
"Where are you guys?" Takato asked.
So where those six land?
