Chapter Two

The Book

Ken, Davis, Yolei, and Cody knocked on Tai's door, their digimon partners in their backpacks. The plain door opened wide, revealing a teen with untamed brown hair, and brown eyes, wearing a white T-shirt and a simple pair of blue jeans. At the sight of the group, Tai's face broke into a grin.

"Glad you guys can make it!"

"Sorry, we couldn't come earlier, we should have kept our D-terminals on us," Yolei apologized sheepishly.

"It's fine, you're here now," Tai dismissed with a smile, then walked back into him apartment leaving the door open for the group to come in. Yolei, Davis, Cody, and Ken followed Tai in -Ken closing to door behind him- and came into Tai's living room where Matt, TK, and Kari sat.

"What's going on?" Yolei asked.

"We found something very interesting, that we just had to show the everyone. We showed Gennai and he's even amazed!" Matt said, a sparkle in his eyes.

"Then what are we waiting for! Come on! I want to see what you found!" Davis suddenly exclaimed, a goofy grin plastered across his face. Kari grinned up at Davis, and TK rolled his eyes.

Davis ushered Kari into her and Tai's room to get the portal open. Tai and Matt chuckled at the over enthusiastic red-head, and Ken let a small smile grace his lips, whilst Cody and Yolei just rolled their eyes.

A minute later the portal was all set up, with Yolei's help, and everyone was ready.

"Digi-port open!"

With a bright flash, all of the room's occupants were sucked into the computer, and were downloaded into the Digital World. Davis, Yolei and Cody, managed to stick the landing on the slanted hill side, while everyone promptly rolled down the hill, landing roughly on their backs.

The three that didn't roll down the hill, unzipped their backpacks, and shook their partners awake, Hawkmon apparently already awake, and let them out of the bags.

"Havin` fun down there?" Davis called mockingly. Ken rolled his eyes as he let Wormon out of his bag. TK glared at Davis from the bottom of the hill.

"How'd you do that?" Tai asked.

"Do what?"

"How'd we stick the landing, Mr. Kasai," Yolei whispered, slapping his arm, rather hardly.

"Oh. I guess we're more used to these kind on landings," Davis shrugged, having a little fun with his acting.

"Then how come we couldn't stick the landing?" TK asked, grudgingly. Davis shrugged as he, as well as Yolei, Cody, and their digimon partners, made their way down the slanted hill.

"Why are we here anyway, Davis?" Veemon asked. "You said you going to stay with your friends for the whole day."

"Apparently, something of the up most importance has come up, so we had to leave our friends!" huffed Yolei.

"Yolei calm down, you know it must be really important if everyone is going to be there," Hawkmon said, trying to calm the glaring Yolei.

"H-how'd you know that?" stuttered Yolei. Hawkmon sighed.

"I have ears you know. Its kind of hard to sleep while we're being bounced around."

Yolei winced, "sorry."

Tai coughed drawing the attention to himself. "We should get going now, the others are already waiting at Gennai's house."

"Oh yeah, where is Gennai's house anyway?" Davis asked.

Matt smirked. "You'll find out." Davis groaned.

"Why?" Davis whined, causing Kari to giggle.

"Maybe we would have told you if you had answered your D-terminal."

"You can't blame that on me! Our D-terminals where in our bags while we where hanging out with our friends, and we just so happened to not be by our bags that often!" Davis retorted, indignantly, crossing his arms. "Where are your partners anyway? Wouldn't they be waiting here for you?"

"Agumon and Gabumon are already at Gennai's house." Gatomon answered for Matt and Tai.

"Hey, Davis?" Kari asked.

"What is it, Kari?" Davis asked, calmly. Earning a few questionable looks from this fellow teammates. Normally Davis would be all over Kari if she directly asked him something.

"What did you do at the park, with your friends?"

Cody, Yolei, and Davis froze for a second but regained their composure, but not before Ken and Wormon noticed.

"Well, we hung out for a bit, playing some games, teasing each other. . ." Davis trailed off.

"And Kendo," coughed Ken, earning a glare from Davis.

"Kendo?" Tai asked, looking over his shoulder to look at Davis.

"One of are friends is the Shibuya champ, and Cody wanted to see how much better he was getting, so they played each other." Yolei said, quickly covering up for Davis.

"But I also saw Davis playing against that champion, Kosei, wasn't it? Winning too," Ken said.

"You play Kendo?" Matt asked, raising an eyebrow. He never knew Davis played anything but soccer.

Davis shrugged. "I dabbled." The present digimon partners watched on in amusement as the digidestined questioned Davis; Yolei trying to help him out.

Ken coughed, a grin clear on his face. Davis glared. "You are such a jerk! You're going to hold this over me for a while now aren't you?"

"Maybe." Came the reply.

"I really hope Kosei doesn't kill us when me get back," Yolei murmured.

Davis laughed nervously. "We did kind of leaving him to deal with those fan girls. But Yuta did say he would do his best to calm him down…"

"We never heard you mention these friends before. We did you meet them, have we seen any of them before," TK asked.

"No, you haven't. Kosei and the rest of our friends come from Shibuya, we almost never get to see them anymore, so we normally don't talk about them much," Came Cody's soft answer to TK's question.

Silence.

That answer left the five other digidestined feeling slightly guilty, they had taken their friends away from friends that they haven't seen for a while.

Tai coughed. "We're almost there."

Davis snapped out of his slightly depressed mood in a instant. "I can't wait! Why can't you just tell me what you found! It's killing me."

Kari giggled at Davis's behavior. Davis flashed at grin in Kari's direction. The forest suddenly opened up into a huge clearing with a lake in the middle of it.

"Wow. This is beautiful," Yolei said, in dazed amazement. Davis, Ken, Cody, and their partners weren't much better.

"Come on, let's go," Matt said, his head jerking towards the lake, before he started towards the lake himself.

Snapping out of their daze, the second generation digidestined followed Matt, Kari, Tai, and TK. As the group reached the edge of the lake, the lake opened up, revealing a staircase going into the depths of the lake.

Jaws dropped.

"What!" Yolei exclaimed, in unison with Davis and Veemon. Cody and Ken staring with mouths and eyes wide in surprise.

TK smirked, "Come on, let's not keep Gennai waiting."

TK made his way down the steps, everyone else soon following, though the second generation were a bit slower as the stared in amazement at the place.

"Man, the Digital World just keeps coming with new surprises," Davis muttered to himself.

Finally after an not so eventful walk down the staircase, the group finally made it to Gennai's house, being greeted by everyone that was already there.

"Sorry we're late, it was hard to find these three," Matt apologized to the young version of Gennai, that was waiting, while jabbing his thumb over his shoulder to the four digidestined that were staring in wonder at the old fashion home.

"No worries, Matt. Now that everyone is here we can finally get down to business," Gennai said, as Matt, Tai, Kari, TK, Davis, Yolei, Cody, and Ken stood by the rest of the digidestined; Gennai's voice seemingly shaking Davis and the others out of their awed states.

"What is this about anyway? No one has told me anything yet!" Davis said, annoyance clear in his voice.

"Yeah, this took us away from our friends! It better be good," Yolei said, trying to keep up her act of anger, but was actually curious to see what Tai and the other had found.

"That is the million dollar question, Davis," Izzy muttered, obviously also angered at the lack of information he was getting.

Gennai shook his head at Davis and Yolei. A gentle smile on his face. "The reason why all of you are here is because of what Tai, Kari, Matt, TK along with their partners found. I have set up a portal to this place. The place is an old sort of temple, in all my years of watching this world I have never seen anything like this. While searching this temple Tai found a book, a book that is detailed in the history of the Digital World before I was even created."

Gasps of shock were heard around while, Davis, Yolei, and Cody, narrowed their eyes in suspicion.

"But how, when we first met you, you said you where here since the digital world was created," Joe said in confusion.

"I lied. Before I was created, a whole different type of Digital World existed, this Digital World as you know now taking it's place. That was when the very first digidestined came. Three angel digimon, Ophanimon, Seraphimon, and Cherubimon, ruled the Digital World then. Those three angel digimon created the four sovereigns that rule the Digital World today."

Davis, Yolei, and Cody, perked up at the mention of the angel digimon. They've always wondered why the angels weren't the rulers anymore.

"And the sovereigns created me. I lack the knowledge of the world before my time, so finding this book is a major milestone for learning more about the digital world." With the mention of this book again, Davis, Yolei, and Cody shared a look.

"Now, I think it's time we go over to the temple," Gennai chuckled, watching the excited digidestined start to fidget, namely Izzy.

"Then what are we waiting for!" Davis exclaimed, bringing his D3 out, his unease hidden deep within his mocha brown eyes. Other exclamations of being ready were shouted around the room before they finally went through the gate to the desired location.

Davis groaned at the weight that was on him. He was at the very bottom of the big dog pile, while Gennai and their partners just stood a few feet away, looking on in amusement.

"We really need to find a way around this," wheezed Yolei; she was right on top of Davis.

"No kidding!" Izzy said.

"Get off, Mimi!" Joe said, trying to shove Mimi off of him; she was the lucky one on the top.

"Oh, sorry," Mimi said, with a sheepish smile, getting off the pile of the groaning digidestined.

"Hurry!" Squeaked Yolei, she started to suffocate.

After a few moments and yelling and struggling, the pile of teens managed to untangle themselves leaving sprawled Davis on the floor.

"You okay, Davis?" Veemon asked, walking up to his partner.

Davis sucked in a deep breath, "Give me a minute."

A few seconds later, Davis groaned as he pushed himself up. "Geez, how much do you guys weigh! It felt like an elephant was sitting on me," complained Davis, as he slowly stood up, looking around. Everyone else had already started discussing the room with each other, Hawkmon talking about how well the structure was made.

They were already in the temple, it was old and musty. There were two staircases one leading up and the other leading down on the opposite sides of the room. They were standing in a ten sided room, the walls were blank and the same color as everything else in the room. Davis couldn't help but feel something very ominous about the room.

"Can you feel that?" Davis asked, approaching Yolei and Cody. The digimon who heard him stared curiously at him, they didn't feel anything wrong.

"You mean the very ominous feeling, like there should be something here but its not? Yeah, I do," Yolei answered, drawing the attention of some of the onlookers.

"Me too," Cody said, drawing the attention of Izzy.

"What are you guys feeling?" Izzy asked, walking up to the trio, every conversation stopping.

"I'm sure its nothing," Davis said. "Probably me just being stupid."

"Well if all three of you are feeling it, it must be something," Gennai said, also walking over to the trio. The rest of the digidestined and digimon trading looks of concern.

"Well, its not an evil feeling. There's no darkness," Yolei said, causing some to sigh in relief. "But it's not necessarily a good feeling either." Some held a breath at that.

"It's more like there's something here that has an overwhelming presence. I can feel it, its like its in the walls. There's something hidden there," Cody explained more vividly.

"It's weird, there's more than one presence, can't say how many though. I don't think there's any danger to it, its just so weird," and familiar. Davis said that last bit in his mind. He did not want the others to think he knew whatever they were sensing, but Davis couldn't help but be suspicious. Ten walls, why would there be ten walls. It couldn't be coincidence, could it?

"I don't feel anything," Gatomon said from her perch on Kari's shoulder, the rest of the digimon agreeing with her.

"Why is it that only you three can feel it?" muttered Izzy, as he looked at the three.

Gennai noticing the trio's discomfort coughed, drawing everyone's attention. "Now, why don't we proceed to where we found the book? We aren't going to find any answers questioning what we don't know anything about yet."

Everyone nodded as they began to follow Gennai, but Davis held back, staring at one of the ten walls closest to him. Davis wasn't certain, but he thought he saw a character in the top left-hand corner of the wall. Slowly Davis walked towards the wall unaware that everyone was watching; having stopped when they realized he wasn't following. Davis didn't hear the voice calling for him, he was too caught up in wanting to make sure what he thought wasn't true.

The walls weren't tall in the room so Davis could reach the corner of the wall on his toes. There was moss covering the corner which he quickly wiped off. What he saw once the moss was gone conformed his suspicion.

On the slab of wall in the top left-hand corner was a character he instantly recognized; the character for light. Or the symbol of Lobomon; the warrior of light.

But what surprised Davis was when he touched the stone wall, a red light appeared around his fingers. And the red light moved to the slab left of the slab he was touching then promptly disappeared.

He wasn't the only one to notice the red light, everyone in the room did too and were now staring at Davis in shock.

"How'd you do that!" Yolei exclaimed, appearing beside him, also taking notice of the character in the corner of the stone slab.

The symbol for the warrior of light. If this slab had his symbol, did that mean every slab had a different symbol on it? If Lobomon's symbol was here does that mean this ruin or shrine was built for the Legendary Warriors? Probably.

"I don't know," Davis finally said, staring down at his hands still contemplating what had happened. Slowly Davis put his finger tips of one hand on the wall and watched as the same red light streamed from his finger tips, and onto the slab to the left; disappearing into the slab.

Davis put his whole hand flat against the stone, watching as the five small streams of light came to one, streaming at a constant pace out of his hand. Davis took his hand off the wall and watched as the still streaming light made its way over to the slab where it was all disappearing.

"Cool," Davis breathed.

Davis could hear voices talking behind him but he was too curious in the red light to really care what they were saying. He ignored Yolei and walked over to the stone slab where all the red lights from his hand kept disappearing.

Out of curiosity Davis looked up to the top-left corner of the slab, noticing that the character was one he instantly recognized and wasn't covered in moss like the previous one had. The character on this slab was that of fire. Or the symbol of Agunimon; the warrior of fire.

Davis put his right hand flat against the wall and was surprised to see a grey color come from his hand instead of the red he had seen not moments ago. The grey light went to the left five slabs before disappearing into that fifth slab.

Davis quickly retracted his hand staring at it in confusion. Davis tried his other hand and the whole slab glowed a red color, making Davis jump in surprise, but Davis kept his hand on the slab. The slab started to break, the cracks shining with a red light. Then slab suddenly burst apart, rocks flying in all directions, kicking up a large cloud of dust. The room was silent.

As the dust settled, everyone gasped in shock at what they saw. Instead of a stone wall as they expected, where the slab used to be was a stained glass picture. Not only that, the room itself was now spotless, it had no dust, no moss, no darkness. The room was made up of polished white quartz, torches lit with fire lined the columns between the ten slabs, the ceiling had a spiral pattern carved into the white stone, the quartz floor was covered in the different colors of the stone. In the center of the floor there was another stone slab, flat against the floor no one would have noticed it if the miraculous clean up of the room didn't happen.

The stained glass, which was tinted red, showed a boy -only down to the waist- with a red wind-breaker, with a yellow shirt that had a black symbol on it, and a green cap, backwards, with goggles, holding up a strange device in his right gloved hand. The boy had auburn hair that went down to the top of his neck curling out slightly, and had brown eyes that seemed to be reflecting flames as a invisible wiped his hair. His face filled with determination.

Behind him showed the another boy -seemingly leaning against the side of the stained glass-, looking like an older version of the one in foreground of the picture, with a green beanie that had the same black symbol on it as the younger version on his shirt, with a red sweatshirt on, holding up his left hand that had a loop of data around it. His auburn hair now went to his shoulders still curling out slightly, his brown eyes, harden by battles and saddened with a certain longing, staring at the hand with the loop of data on it.

Behind the two boys were two digimon, each unknown, taking up the rest of the stained glass. Davis recognizing them as Agunimon and BurningGreymon.

Everyone looked to Gennai for an explanation -Yolei, Cody, and Davis, only doing it to keep up appearances- but he too was at a loss for words.

Davis stared at the stained glass, the pictures of Takuya, of him, lost in the memories of the life of he lead before. Yolei quickly slipped her hand onto his shoulder for a split moment squeezing his shoulder tightly before returning her arm to her side, snapping Davis out of his thoughts.

"Do you think, behind each of these slabs there lies a picture like this?" Yolei asked breaking the amazed silence.

"There's a high probability, but how do we take away the rocks?" Izzy said, studying the room with interest.

"Davis had that red light coming from his hand. How'd you do that?" TK asked, watching Davis.

"I'm not sure, I had touched the slab to wipe away some of the moss in the corner of the slab and it just appeared. I want to try something real quick. Kari, could you come here for a quick second?" Davis said as he walked to the slab left of the stained glass, not looking at the group behind him.

Davis quickly spied the character in the corner of the slab, the character of wind, Kazemon; the warrior of wind's symbol, and gave Yolei a sideways glance.

"What is it, Davis?" Kari asked quietly, curiously, from behind him.

"I would like you to touch this slab in front of me."

"Why?" Tai asked; he had also walked over with Kari.

"If my theory is correct, a light should also appear from her fingers and go to the slab over there," Davis said pointed to the stab to the right of the stained glass.

"What makes you think that?" Gennai asked, watching Davis curiously.

"I'll tell you if it works. Go ahead, Kari," Davis replied, gesturing for Kari to touch the slab.

As Kari hesitantly moved foreword and touched the slab, a white light erupted from her finger tips, zooming across the stone slab, across the stained glass, and into the slab Davis had pointed too. Jaws dropped.

A huge grin formed on Davis's face as he grabbed Kari's hand gently and pulled her towards the slab to the right of the stained glass. Kari looked at Davis confused.

"Touch the slab." Kari did so, nervously. Once she touched the slab, the slab started to shake, cracking, then was covered in a bright light. Once the slab had begun to shake Kari was starting to retract her hand, but Davis quickly and gently, firmly pushed Kari's hand flat against the stone, not letting her pull away. Davis only smiled at her as she looked at him with a fearful gaze.

The white light blinded everyone in the room, but when it died down, they gasped in shock once again. In the stead on the stone slab was another stained glass, this one was white.

In the foreground was a boy -only being shown down to his waist- with long black tinted blue hair in a pony-tail that was being blown in an invisible breeze. He wore a blue wind-breaker the was striped yellow, vertically, along the sleeves with a yellow shirt underneath. On the boy's head there was a blue, brown striped bandana, keeping the bangs out of his face. His eyes were a sapphire color, sparkling with an unseen light with a determined look on his face, his mouth frozen in the middle of saying something. He was holding the strange device that the boy in the other stained glass had, up above his head, his left hand next to the device with a loop of data around it, seemingly being scanned by the device.

Behind the boy was an older version of him. The older version of the boy wore a long-sleeved white shirt, a blue and brown bandana tied around the upper part of his left arm. A pair of blue jeans could been seen starting before the part below his waist began to fade out. He seemed to be looking off in the distance, his eyes were closed and his long black, blue tinted hair -that was still in a pony-tail- swayed slightly in another invisible breeze, his bangs falling freely into his face as there was no bandana to hold the bangs back.

Behind the two boys were two unknown digimon again taking up the rest of the space on the stained glass. Yolei, Cody, and Davis, recognizing the two digimon as Lobomon and KendoGarurumon.

"Care to clue us in now?" Izzy asked, amazement clear in his voice.

"I didn't follow you guys earlier because I hand seen something in the corner of this slab so I went to investigate. What I saw was the kanji character for Light once I had brushed the moss that was mainly covering it away. That was also when the red light had came from my hand.

"When I checked the slab that the red light was going to, in the corner of the slab was another kanji character, the character for Fire. And I realized the Courage in a way, can relate to fire; that was probably why the red light went to the slab.

"I also figured that these stone slabs were concealing what Yolei, Cody, and I felt, so I touched the slab to see what happened. You know what happened after that. So then, I thought about how the previous slab had had the character for Light and I connected that to Kari as she has the crest of light. So I thought that Kari might be able to free whatever was concealed behind that slab, looks like I was correct.

"What I also realized was there are ten crest, including the crests of kindness and miracles, there are also ten walls, so I have reason to believe, each one of us could unseal what had been sealed behind the stone slabs." Davis explained, turning to face everyone who's jaws were hitting the ground.

"I also think that each one of these slabs have a character that represents elements as the stained glass that still has the kanji character for Fire on it also seems to deal with fire digimon, at least that's what it looks like. Also for the stained glass that represents light, those two digimon, they look like they are holy digimon, or creatures of light.

"Also just to add onto this incredibly long explanation, the slab that I first lead Kari two, that one has the kanji character for Wind on it," Davis said, finally finished. Davis took pride in everyone's shocked faces.

"You feeling okay there?" TK asked, slightly concerned for his friend.

"Yeah, I'm perfectly fine. Why?"

"That is the first time you've actually made sense of a situation when none of us could, and explained it in a way let made everyone understand," TK explained.

"You've never seen the real me," Davis said shrugging before turning back to the stained glass, a strange, sad, longing in his eyes.

Yolei who had immediately set to work on Davis's theory, suddenly spoke out. She was next to the slab that Davis had said had the character for wind on it.

"This slab over here has the character for Ice on it," Yolei said, pointing to the slab to the she was in front of, which was two stabs to the left of the stained glass that was tinted red. "The next one has the character for Wood and the next has the character for Earth."

Cody who had gone to stand by Yolei slowly walked to the slab that Yolei hadn't deciphered yet; Armodillomon walking right beside him. "This one has the kanji character for Steel on it."

Cody rest his hand on the wall only to just back in shock a moment later as a blue light shot from his hand along the wall to the slab three slabs to the right.

"But I don't have a crest," Cody murmured, feigning surprise. He knew this would happen.

"Aren't the digimentals based off of the crests? I think that's why the slab for fire reacted to me. I don't have the crest of Courage but I have the digimental of Courage. I mean I have the crest of Miracles but that wouldn't react with Fire, so I would guess the digimentals had be the reason how we're able to reveal what's hidden behind the slabs," Davis explained, once again shocking most with his knowledge.

"So if I follow this," Cody paused, placing his hand on the stone again, watching the blue light run from his hand to the slab three to the right, and followed it while everyone watched. "This one had the character for Ice on it." Kumamon's symbol. Cody announced adding the last part in his head.

Hesitantly Cody placed his hand on the slab. The slab started to shake and crack, a blue light shining through the cracks. Then in a blinding light the slab basically exploded, with a resounding bang. When the light died down the digidestined were greeted with the sight of blue tinted stained glass.

In the foreground o the glass was a young boy to his waist. He wore a white t-shirt outlined in green, with a yellow undershirt. The boy wore a big orange hat with his brown hair spouting out of places under the hat. His blue eyes full of innocence and yet also full of determination. His hands were shown at chest level one hand holding a strange green device and the other hand having a loop of data around it, the loop of data seemingly about to be scanned by the device.

In the middle ground to the left of the boy was an older version of him. He wore no hat, showing off his longer brown hair, he wore a green hooded jacket, the beginnings of a pair of blue jeans showing. His blue eyes were full of sorrow, but were hardened like a warrior's, as he looked down -his hands were also in the pockets of his jacket.

Behind the boy were two unknown digimon as well, being recognized by Yolei, Davis, and Cody, as Kumamon and Korikakumon.

"Who are these people?" Mimi asked, breaking the silence that has descended upon the digidestined and Gennai.

"No clue," Gennai said. "But if this shrine is dedicated to these people depicted in the stained glass, then we will be sure to figure it out soon enough."

"But let's first finish revealing everything that's behind these slabs, I'm wanting to see who else might be hiding behind the slabs. So Davis care to help us reveal the rest of them?" Tai said. Davis nodded, a bright smile on his face.

Davis moved in front of the slab with the character for Wind on it, stealing a glance at Yolei. "Okay, so let's start with the character for Wind. Out of all the ten crest, excluding Courage and Light, which do you think would go the best with Wind?"

"Well there's Purity, Serenity and Love." Ken mused, petting Wormon -who was in his arms- on the head.

"Okay, Joe, Mimi, Sora, and Yolei, won't cha please come up here?" Davis asked happily.

"Joe, I would like to put your hand against the stone," Davis said once Joe, Mimi, Sora, and Yolei -who was already standing beside him- were standing by him. Joe did so.

A brown light glowed at Joe's hand, it rocketed three slabs to the left before it disappeared in the third slab.

"That's the slab that has the kanji character for Earth," TK stated, walking up to the stone.

"Okay, we'll reveal that slab in a minute but lets get this one first. Who wants to give it a try?" Davis said.

"I will," Mimi said, taking a step foreword, placing her hand against the stone. A pink light gathered about Mimi's hand before shooting five slabs to the right, disappearing into the fifth slab.

"What character does that slab have?" Mimi called out curiously.

"Water," Izzy answered, having immediately walked over to the slab once the pink light disappeared as Mimi lifted her hand.

"Okay," Sora said, "my turn." Sora placed her hand on the stone.

The stone began to shake, cracking. A purple light shining through the cracks. As Sora began to remove her hand, Davis leapt foreword, placing his hand over Sora's, keeping her hand in place. In a blinding light the slab exploded, revealing a purple tinted stained-glass.

In the foreground was a young girl with long golden blonde hair, her head covered with a purple hat that seemed to have cat ears and had dark purple strip at the rim of it. She wore purple hooded, sleeveless wind-breaker, with a purple and white striped short-sleeved crop-top, revealing her stomach before the beginnings of a purple skirt appeared. Her eyes were closed and a small smile was on her face -an invisible wind gently moving her golden hair and purple wind-breaker. She also had her arms out stretched to the side, feeling the invisible coming her way.

Behind the girl was an older version of the same person. Her longer golden hair was tired up in a pony-tail with a purple ribbon -her long bangs hanging along the sides of her face. She wore a long-sleeved black shirt -that went a little past her hips- with the shoulders cut out. From what the digidestined were able to see she also wore a pair for dark skinny-jeans. She had her hands out in front of her, one looped with fractal code and the other holding a device. The ribbon in her hair was being whipped around by some invisible force along with her cloths and hair. Her turquoise eyes were filled with determination and a sort of sorrow that every older version of everyone in the stained glass seemed to have.

Behind them were two unknown digimon, Davis, Yolei, and Cody, recognizing them as Kazemon and Zephyrmon.

"Wow," Tai stated, breaking the mesmerizing silence.

Davis quietly walked over to Yolei who was still staring at the stained-glass, then leaned close to her ear. "You look badass as your older self in that picture, but I still say my pictures in my stained-glass are way better," Davis whispered.

Yolei whacked Davis, hard, in the chest, making him yell out an "Ouch!" drawing everyone's attention.

"You wish," Yolei huffed, turning away.

Davis grumbled something under his breath as he rubbed the now sore spot on his chest, barely audible, -but the digimon stilled seemed to hear as they tried to stifle their giggles- and turned to the curious onlookers.

"Don't ask. Anyway, so the light from Joe's hand went to the slab with the kanji character for Earth. Joe would you do the honors?" Davis said, motioning Joe to go to the indicated stone slab.

Joe did so walking over to the slab and placing his hand on it. He didn't pull his hand away as he had watched Davis keep Sora's and Kari's hands to the stone when they tried to pulled away.

The stone underneath his hand started to break and fracture, a brown light shining through the cracks, before it exploded in a blinding light. When the light died down, in the stead of the stone slab was brown stained-glass with pictures on it.

There were only two digimon in this stained glass. Both unknown. There was no human in the glass, making everyone -besides a certain trio- blink at it in surprise. Davis, Yolei and Cody instantly recognized them as Grumblemon and Gigasmon.

"How come there's no person in his one?" Matt asked.

Yolei snorted, "How are we supposed to know. But I would think it would explain it the book that we originally came here for."

"So, it's Mimi's turn now, is it not?" Gennai said, surveying the group.

Mimi nodded -she was still standing by stained glass with the character of Wind on it. Yolei gently took Mimi by the hand and lead her over to the stone that had the character for Water on it.

"Let's try this again," Yolei said gesturing for Mimi to lace her hand on the slab.

Gathering her courage, Mimi took a deep breath and placed her hand on the slab -Yolei's hand on her shoulder being the only reason she didn't lift her hand as the stone began to fracture and shake, glowing a pink color.

Just like all the others, the light became too bright for anyone to see past and when it died down, on the pink tinted stained-glass were images of two unknown digimon, ones Yolei recognized as Ranamon and Calmaramon.

"Just like the last one," Izzy mumbled, his eyes glancing back to the stained glass with the spirits of Earth were.

Izzy not wasting a second went to the stone slab to the right of the slab with the spirits of water on it. "This one here is the one with the character of Steel on it. Which crest would go well with Steel?" The question was more to himself then anyone.

All the while, Davis was staring at the slab with a calculating gaze. He remembered the grey light coming from his hand and into that slab of stone. He knew the reason why he was able to reveal the stained-glass of his past-self was because he bore the digimental of Courage and also from the fact it was his past self.

But he also had the crest of Miracles and that had to react with one of the spirits. Was the crest of Miracles really formed from the powers of Steel? Only one way to find out.

Slowly Davis approached the stone unnoticed until he was standing right in front of the slab. "Davis?" Matt asked uncertainly.

Davis didn't answer.

Davis put his palm against the cold stone and a grey light erupted from his hand, spreading like tree branches, cutting into the stone as it began to shake. The grey light engulfed the stone to the point where it was to bright for anyone to see past, making everyone shield their eyes.

When the light died down and Davis felt to cool surface of the grey tinted stained-glass, he retracted his hand and stared at the human spirit and beast spirit of Steel that were imprinted there.

"D-davis, how'd you do that?" stuttered TK, Davis gave him a look.

"Earlier I revealed the stained-glass because I bear the Digimental of Courage. I have the crest of Miracles so I knew I could reveal another stained glass. Also when I was about to reveal the stained-glass of courage, or whatever you want to call it, a grey light came from my hands and went to this stained-glass. So when Izzy asked what crest would go with Steel, I tried it," Davis explained with a shrug.

"The next one is Thunder, who's crest can relate to thunder?" Gennai asked, walking over to the stone slab that had the character of Thunder on it, moments later.

Izzy hummed in thought along with a few others. "Possibly Knowledge or Hope," Gatomon said.

With no prompting from Davis or anyone else Izzy and TK walked over to the stone Gennai was close to.

"I'll go first," TK said before placing his hand on the cold stone. A green light glowed around his fingertips before the light zoomed four walls to the right, sinking into that fourth one; TK retracted his hand, slightly disappointed.

"Okay, my turn," Izzy stated before he too placed his hand on the cold slab of stone.

As a dark-yellow/gold color collected around Izzy's fingertips, the gold light began to spread like tree branches, cutting into the stone making it shake. One again when the gold light became to bright everyone shielded their eyes, Yolei shouting "I'm going to go blind because of this!" as she covered her eyes.

When the light dissipated under Izzy's hand was a golden tinted stained glass. In the foreground was from the waist up, was a heavy-set boy in a blue collared jumper with yellow outlining the pockets. The sleeves were rolled up to the boy's elbows, in inside of the jumper yellow. The boy also wore an orange shirt underneath the blue suit. The boy's face was slightly chubby with wild short brown hair. His eyes brown eyes filled with determination. His hands were out stretched to the side, one hand holding the strange device, the other hand having a loop of data around it.

Behind the boy was an older version of him, that was slightly thinner, from waist up. The older version on the boy wore a light blue, collared, buttoned up, long sleeved shirt, that was rolled up to his elbows revealing the darker blue color on the inside. The pocket on the breast was tipped with dark blue. Under the blue shirt was a short-sleeved yellow shirt and his hand hung at his sides. The boy's wild hair was still untamed if not slightly shorter and his brown eyes filled with sorrow and pain.

Behind the older version on the boy, were two unknown digimon that Davis, Yolei, and Cody recognized as Beetlemon and MetalKabuterimon.

"Congratulations Izzy, you have revealed stained-glass of a person we don't know," Tai said in a serious voice making a few people laugh slightly while others cracked a smile.

Izzy rolled his eyes, inspecting the stained-glass before him before taking a few steps to the left to look at the next stone slab and look into the corner of the slab to see the character. But when he saw the kanji character, he froze.

Davis, Cody, and Yolei shared a look, even without looking at the character they knew what it was; Darkness. To them it was so silly that the digidestined thought everything that had darkness was evil. With a sigh Davis walked over to Ken, who was standing near Matt, and dragged him over to the slab.

"Ken, this is the slab only you can reveal. I do not care what the others say, you're my friend and I know you aren't evil. So please, would you reveal the stained-glass?" Davis said, making Ken and everyone else, save Yolei, and Cody, who were in reality only keeping their acting up, nervous and edgy.

Ken nodded slowly and put his palm against the stone. A black light erupted from his hand and cut through the stone, the fractures the black light was making spreading out like tree branches. The dark light darkening the room to the point of not being able to see anything before it gradually began to lighten, showing black tinted stained-glass.

In the foreground of the stained-glass was a boy, shown from waist up, that looked like the other boy in the stained-glass with the character of Light. The boy was wore a collared green short-sleeved windbreaker that had a pocket on the left side. He had a long-sleeved red undershirt, and the beginnings of white pants were showing before the stained-glass got cut off. He had black tinted blue hair that went to the bottom of his neck and his piercing blue eyes were swallowed in guilt and sadness as a frown tugged at his lips. One of his hands were above is head, the one with the loop of data, while his other hand, with the strange device, was below his stomach.

In the middle ground was a older version of the boy. He was looking straight ahead with sorrow filled determined blue eyes, his black tinted blue hair going down to his shoulders. He wore a black long-sleeved shirt, and the beginnings of blue jeans could be seen before the image was cut off. His hands were stuffed into his pockets as he seemed to look down slightly.

Behind the boys were two unknown digimon which Davis, Yolei, and Cody, instantly recognized as Lowemon and KaiserLeomon.

But what drew everyone's attention was the black kanji character in the top corner of the stained-glass. It was the character for Darkness.

"Before any of you make any accusations or comments let me ask you this; is the night evil?" Davis said. It was silent, no one wanted to answer Davis's question, well besides Ken -Ken having been told Davis's perspective on darkness by Davis himself-, Yolei and Cody.

It was Sora who answered with a hesitant "no."

"Correct. Darkness is a neutral element, it can be either good or evil the same thing can be said about the element of light. So I dare you, try and say that whoever this is in the stained-glass is evil," Davis said, his voice having a sharp edge.

"Davis, why are you defending that person, do you know him?" Yolei accused, even though she already knew the answer.

"Of course not! I'm just so frustrated with this because all of you always say darkness is evil and whoever posses darkness is evil. But that's not true! And I always find myself the only one who isn't biased about darkness! Seriously, just because you've had bad experiences with darkness doesn't mean that darkness is evil," Davis said not looking at his friends.

Silence claimed the room as everyone besides a few settled into shock. Davis had never been that insightful before. Gennai was looking at Davis somewhat impressed.

It was Gennai who broke the silence with a cough drawing everyone's attention. "TK, I think it's time for you to reveal the last stained-glass."

TK nodded, "okay."

TK walked over to the last stone slab, the slab that had the character for Wood, and placed his hand on it, everyone watching.

Green light branched out from TK's hand cutting into the stone causing it to shake. Like all the others, eventually the green light became so bright that everyone had to shield their eyes.

Underneath TK's hand was green tinted stained-glass that depicted two unknown digimon, one Davis, Cody and Yolei, recognized; Arbormon and Petaldramon.

But that wasn't the only thing revealed, the stone slab that was in the center of the floor wasn't stone anymore, it was also stained-glass, but this stained-glass was tinted with various hues, like the colors in a rainbow. The stained-glass depicted three digimon, two look like angels and one looking like a large bunny.

Kari, TK, Davis, Yolei, Cody, and their partners immediately recognized the large bunny as an uncorrupted Cherubimon.

"These are the celestial digimon," came Gennai's shocked voice as he looked over the stained-glass(the digimon gasping). "Cherubimon, Seraphimon, and Ophanimon."

"Who?" Kari asked, voicing the question that was in everyone's minds, save Yolei, Cody, and Davis.

"The celestial digimon. They were the guardians of the digital world before the four sovereigns came. Not much is known about them and their time, but they were said to have ten warriors. The ten legendary warriors," Tentomon explained looking around the room with renewed interest.

"We've found the shrine to these ten warriors? That's so cool," Davis said in fake awe.

"Gennai, you said that you found a book there that was from the time period that these warriors are from, I guess it makes sense for a book like that to be here," Izzy said, theories forming in his head.

"Indeed, let's head down to the chamber, hopefully the book will provide us will the answers to the unasked questions" Gennai said as he started for the stone steps that went deeper into the ground.

The digidestined and their partners went after Gennai, exchanging a few words with each other, into the dusty stairwell. Not long after they started descending the stairs they came to a small dark and dusty chamber, with one pedestal in the middle of it. On the pedestal was a thick book that had an old, worn, brown cover. Davis, Yolei, and Cody, realized, that the book was indeed Bokomon's.

"Gennai, there's more steps," Mimi said before Gennai could get no more than five feet before the book.

"No there isn't," Gennai said turning to face her, but as he did he too saw another stairwell go deeper into the ground.

"That wasn't there before," Tai said, dumbfounded.

"Well it is now," Yolei said. "Maybe that was because we revealed the ten warriors. Maybe you had to reveal all the warriors in order to reach the room."

"That makes sense, there must have been a reason why the warriors weren't revealed in the first place. So whatever is down there it must be very important," Joe said, pushing his glasses back up his nose.

"Let's go check it out!" Davis said with his usual fake cheer and raced towards the step, Veemon following him. His friends called out his name as they followed hi telling him to slow down, but Davis didn't listen. He could feel two familiar presences and he had to make sure he was right about who they were.

Descending the step into a darker chamber, Davis felt the presences wash over him, yeah, he definitely knew who they were. But what confused Davis was that in the middle of the chamber was another pedestal -this pedestal having the carvings of a Lopmon, a Salamon, and a Patamon, on it- with the same think brown covered book. It definitely looked like Bokomon's book but so did the one in the higher chamber.

Behind him he could hear Gennai, the rest of their digidestined, and their partners, enter the chamber, their eyes finding the book immediately, creating shock and confusion.

Why were there two of the same books? One being in a chamber secretly hidden.

Suddenly everyone became aware of the eerie presence that could be felt in the room which seemed to darken the longer they stayed. Kari looked around fearfully, rubbing her hands against her arms, trying rid the goosebumps that were forming. "Do anyone else feel that?
