Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ Hope's Light ❯ A Call to Arms!!! ( Chapter 3 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Evening all. Finally got chapter 3 out and finished it seems. Sorry
about the wait, I have been working with my friend's theater class
lately to put on the show "barefoot in the park" and I am working as
the light and sounds man, even though I am not in the class. Anyway,
enough of that, I know what you guys are looking for. ACTION,
ADVENTURE, and mass ORGIES!!! ((JK!!!!!)) Anyway, all kidding aside, I
guess it is disclaimer time. I do not own digimon, or any of it's
characters, aside those I have made for this story. any I made, I
would like it if you asked permission for using, but at the least, if
ya just say you got the idea from me, heck, I'm happy. Anyway, let the
story begin!!!

~Chapter 3~

A Call to Arms!!

Tai sighed softly, trying to remember how he had gotten in this mess.
'Oh yea... I feel in love, and now I'm paying for it...' He jumped,
blocking the soccer ball with his head, passing it back to Davis.

Davis caught the ball with his foot, balancing it, watching Tai for a
moment. "Tai, why did you want to practice today? You knew I had
planned on checking on the digimon today, to make sure everything was
alright." Tai almost twitched, remembering why he had caught Davis the
minute he had left his apartment, to distract him.

"I just felt like getting some practice in. Besides, if something were
going to happen, we would know about it by now, wouldn't we?" This was
mostly true, since if anyone, Izzy was often in contact with the
digimon in the digital world, keeping tabs with them. 'Kari, you so
owe me for this...' Tai ran forward, kicking the ball from the
surprised Davis' foot, and started running with it, laughing a little
at Davis' grumble as he came in pursuit.

* * * * * * * * *

"And that's what happened, Izzy. Any thoughts?" Kari looked slightly
upset still, showing how bad this was effecting her, since she
normally hide her feelings so as not to upset everyone else. TK
frowned slightly, watching her explain, sitting on Koushiro's bed,
waiting for him to help them figure it out. He thought, remembering
the battle with Titanmon, how Gatomon had not been able to Armor
Digivolve for some reason. Although it had not been needed, it was
still a rather unsettling turn of events.

The young genuis sat quietly for a few moments, contemplating his
theories, as the two younger digidestined tryed waiting patiently.
Finally, Izzy looked up to them, immediatly catching their attention.
"Well... The I can only think of two ideas so far, as to why Kari
could not get Gatomon to Armor Digivolve. One, would be that her D3 is
malfunctioning. But her being able to open the digi-port would suggest
otherwise. The other idea, is that perhaps this new opponent of yours,
Arukenimon I believe you said, has found a way to block armor
digivolutions, but only one at a time currently. If this is true, you
will need to work fast. If she can block your armor's, and the control
spires block normal digivolutions, then you will be at an extreme
disadvantage."

TK almost went pale, thinking about the possibilites. 'Block our
armors? If she can do that, we won't be able to fight... NO, I can't
lose Hope! We will find a way...' He glanced at Kari, who was ringing
her hands worriedly. She spoke up quietly, "Izzy, can you think of
something to help? Gatomon may be a Champion, but she still doesn't
have her tail ring back. She isn't as powerful as she could be without
it." Kari sniffed slightly. This really had her bad, if she was
getting this upset over it. TK put his arm around her shoulders,
smiling warmly at her. 'I don't think now is a good time, but I will
soon.' He thought to himself, as he and Kari both noticed Izzy typing
at his computer furiously.

Izzy glanced back, seeing he had their attention again. "Well.. We may
not have an answer yet, but it seems that something of interest has
happened." He pointed to the computer screen, as Takeru and Hikari
both stood and looked at it over his shoulder.

Dear Digidestined,

It's been a long time, my friends. I understand you have been having
some trouble of late? Well, I believe I have a nice present for you
all. If you could, please all meet me at my home in one week. We will
talk more about this when you arrive. And please remember to bring
snacks.

Gennai

TK blinked, seeing the odd e-mail had to return address, but was sent
to the e-mail of every digidestined, including Ken. "It certainly has
his style to it...What do you two think?"

Kari frowned slightly, turning slightly from the computer screen.
"Well, I don't see someone impersonating Gennai, but why would he want
to see us now? Do you think something worse has happened that we don't
know about?"

Koushiro was still watching the screen, before typing a small reply to
the rest of the digidestined. "We will know when we get there. As for
now, all we can do is wait. I want you two to not go back to the
digital world until we all go together to meet Gennai. I just sent a
mail telling Yolie, Cody, Ken, and Davis the same thing." He hit send,
turning back to the younger digidestined, looking up at them, from his
chair. "I will try and get everyone into a chatroom tonight, to
discuss what's going on. If you two can, make sure everyone knows
about it, in case they might not get the e-mail in time, alright?"

TK nodded in time with Kari, before smiling at one another. "You can
count on us, Izzy. We'll make sure everyone is on."

Kari looked at her watch, before sighing. "Guys, it's almost 6
o'clock. I need to get home before Taichi does. I'll tell him about
the meeting. And since our parents got him a laptop to use for school,
we can both be on. Anyway, I should go.." He hugged Izzy in his chair,
before hugging TK, giving him a soft kiss on the lips. TK blushed
hard, caught by surprise as Kari smiled more, winking at him, as she
left. "Talk to you both tonight."

Izzy sat surprised as TK continued to stand in shock, blushing badly.
Clearing his throat, TK remembered that someone else was in the room,
figitting nerviously. "Don't worry TK. I won't tell anyone, until you
have. Especially Tai and Matt. Now get going." TK nodded thankfully,
and walked out, still a little dumbfounded, but thankful Izzy had said
he wouldn't tell anyone for now.

* * * * * * * * * *

Joe sat in the library, working on his next term paper for his class.
He was typing fast, when he sawa small message come up saying he had
two new mails. 'Mail? I wonder who from... I hope it's not a chain
letter again..' He opened the first mail, blinking as he read the
short letter from Gennai. He had to admit, he was surprised that he
had contacted them, after so long, but unfortunetly, it meant that
something was wrong, if he was. Getting to the second letter, he
opened it, seeing it was from Koushiro. 'A digidestined meeting
tonight, online? 9 o'clock, huh..' He began typing again, e-mail Izzy
back real fast. He then began typing at his paper again, even faster,
so he could be done in time to talk with his friends.

* * * * * * * * * *

TK sat at his computer, which was on since he had a cable modem thanks
to his mom, deep in thought. He rarely had these times, since normally
Patamon and the other Digimon stayed in the real world, but for the
past couple days, he had been able to have alot of free time. He shook
his head out of the cobwebs it had been in, and turned on the chat
program Izzy had made on, to log in and see if anyone was on, or if he
had any E-mail.

*Accept - Yes*

*Welcome to Digidiscussion*

*AngelicHope has entered the room.*

AngelicHope~Hey guys.

Doctor Jyou~Hi TK.

CompWhiz~So do you think you could help, Izzy?

Brains Before Brawn~Sure, Yolie.

CompWhiz~Great, thanks. Hey TK ^_^

LoneGaruru~hey bro.

Love'sRacket~Hi TK. ::smiles::

KendoStudent~Hello, TK.

AngelicHope~Almost time for the meeting. Where are the rest?

PinkLilly~I don't know, but I hope they hurry. I have class in a few,
and I need to get ready still.

*CourargiousLeader has entered the room.*

*Gato'sLight has entered the room.*

CourargiousLeader~Hey gang.

Gato'sLight~Hi guys. Hey Takeru. ~_^

AngelicHope~Hi Kari. ::smiles with a slight blush::

Love'sRacket~It's about time, Tai. I wondered if you were even going
to show within the next half an hour. ::teasing::

*Miracle Leader has entered the chat.*

Miracle Leader~Hey Guys, hiya Kari.

Couragious Leader~Is that everyone then? and I take offence to that,
Sora.

Brains before Brawn~No, we are waiting on Mister Ken to show now.

Couragious Leader~Well what is this about anyway?

*KindWorm has entered the room.*

KindWorm~Hope I am not to late, I had to talk with my parents.

Brains before Brawn~not a problem, Ken. In fact, good timing.

Miracle Leader~Hey Ken, hows it hanging?

AngelicHope~Hi Ken.

KindWorm~Hello, everyone.

Brains before Brawn~First things first, so Mimi can go to her class.
Are we agreed we need to meet Gennai this saturday night, like his
letter asks?

AngelicHope~::nods:: Yes. He might know what we need to do about
Arukenimon.

DoctorJyou~I agree. I would say about ten AM for Miss Mimi in America,
which for us is one in the morning, but we can meet with him, and
start planning, before she gets there.

PinkLilly~That works for me, I have nothing on saturday to do. I'll
meet you guys in the Digi- world then. Jou, would you save and send me
the rest to read tomorrow, thanks, bye!!!!

*User PinkLilly has left the room*

CouragiousLeader~Well.....that was ubrupt....

Brains before Brawn~Well, at least it settles it. the other thing is a
warning to the newer Digidestined. It seems we have found evidence
that Armor's may not always work in the Digi- world right now, so
until we go to meet Gennai Friday, no one goes to the digital world,
and no gates are to be opened unless you plan on bringing your digimon
into the Real world.

Compwhiz~Armor's not working?!?! Ok, Izzy, spill.

KendoStudent~Izzy, could you send me an E-mail explaining, I need to
go to bed, before My mom finds me still online.

Brains before Brawn~I will send everyone an e-mail about this, so we
can all go to bed. You'll all have it by tomorrow. Now everyone get to
bed, we all need to get things together for this weekend.

CouragiousLeader~Fine by me. Night guys.

*User Couragious Leader has left the room.*

Gato's Light~Me too. Mom will kill us if she finds out we are still
online.

*User Gato's Light has left the room.*

KendoStudent~Thanks Izzy. Good night everyone.

*User KendoStudent has left the room.*

CompWhiz~You better tell me Izzy....

KindWorm~Uh oh, wormmon says my mom is calling. Talk to you guys
tomorrow I guess.

*User KindWorm has left the room.*

CompWhiz~Wait....dang it, he signed off to fast.

Brains before Brawn~I will send the E-mail, Yolie, now get going.
::Quirks a brow::

CompWhiz~oh alright. ::pouts::

*User CompWhiz has left the room.*

AngelicHope~well, I should get some sleep too, guys. Night night, and
sweet sleeps.

Doctor Jyou~Same here. I am saving and e-mail the chat now. Night
guys.

Love's Racket~Hey Jou, IM me a second, before you go, ok?

Doctor Jyou~alright.

*You have signed out of Digi-online. Have a nice day. ^_^*

Tk leaned back, smiling softly as he shut the chat room program off.
'Hope your ok, Kari. I really do.' He stood up, taking his shirt off
and laying in his bed, sprawling out with his sheet barely over him.
'I wonder what Gennai meant by surprise? I hope it is something to
help. I wonder why Gatomon thought about staying the the digital world
to search, or if she found anything? I miss you Patamon.... I really
miss you Hikari....' He slowly started to dream, sleep finally over
taking him.

HEHE Finally!!!! Chapter 3 is finally done!!!!!! Sorry it took me so
very long, but I had the worst case of writers block. I am hoping to
have more written soon (no promises), since this chapter went into one
of the few areas I had not thought out in my head yet. And I am sorry,
but if I messed up on the time zone difference... I trying finding out
what it was, but no one I know knew it, and for the life of me, I
couldn;t find it online either.... I just have bad luck finding the
simple things it seems. Anyway, if someone can tell me the exact time
zone difference between Odiaba and New York, please do, I could use
it. Anyway, see you all soon, bye!!!!!
