Chapter 4: The DigiWorld's First Glitch

"We better get a move on or we might miss this person who's supposed to be in our group." The group then continued to move on. Walking past the crowd that slowly started to disperse and more shops that were yelling out sales and products that they were selling, the finally made it to the other end of the western town without running into any more trouble. The looked around to see if there was some sort of clue to finding the person that they were looking for but just as they guessed, they would have to use the Digi-Gear once again. They went back into another alley and found that the kid still hasn't left his/her spot.

"Come on, then. I wanna see who this kid is." Jacob said out loud again.

"I hope they're nice." Naoki said.

"We can only hope." Fossilmon said in a flat tone.

"Can you be any more reassuring?" August teased his partner who just ignored the boy's comment towards him.

"So is there anyone on the hill?" Wataru asked who ever could answer his question. The group gazed around as they stood on the outskirts of the town and found that there was a lone figure up on the hill, leaning against a large tree.

"I think I see someone up there." Hotarumon answered. It didn't take long for August to make the first move and lead them up towards the boy. The boy looked at them with dark eyes and an uncaring sort of gaze. He wore a dark blue headband around his head making his spiky hair flop to one side. He wore a dark green, military jacket and kaki gray pants.

"Who are you?" he asked in a cold tone.

"He reacts just like you, Fossilmon." August joked but the orange dinosaur didn't find it funny at all.

"I don't talk anything like him." He pouted and turned away. August just laughed then turned his attention back to the boy.

"I'm August Egami, and this is my partner Fossilmon." He introduced himself. "From left to right, this is Naoki Ienari, Hotarumon, Jacob Hayami, Blair Miura, Torimon, Kiyoko Kagawa, Voodoomon, Halomon, Kitsunemon and Wataru Morinaga."

"That's nice." The boy then turned and ignored their presence.

"This is where you're supposed to introduce yourself too, you know." Kiyoko half yelled at him. She looked at the boy sceptically and didn't like the mood he was giving off.

"Well, I didn't get a script or any of the sort, so why should I?" He didn't turn anywhere near to facing the girl he was talking to.

"Because it would be nice and courteous towards the people who are trying to befriend you." Her left eyelid started to twitch. Torimon tried to get her partner to calm down but it didn't seem to be working.

"And who said I wanted to befriend any of you?" He yawned and that really ticked off the girl.

"Please don't be angry at him, he just isn't a social kind of guy." Said a voice from the tree. "I'm Makaramon by the way and this here is Keiji Imamura."

"Makaramon, don't stick your nose in where it doesn't belong and be the big mouth that I know you are." Keiji said in a flat tone towards the digimon that appeared from the branch above him. The kids that stood in a bunch just exchanged glances with each other. They hadn't expected the kid that they were supposed to meet to be so mean and rude, especially towards his partner. And they didn't expect them to be such opposites either. Sensing everyone's uneasiness, August decided to break the silence between them and decided to move on with the subject.

"So, Keiji, do you have a Digi-Gear?" August took out his device and showed to him, much to everyone's surprise. They all weren't sure what to think, after all, they still weren't sure if this was the person that they're looking for but August had a different impression of the boy in front of him.

"What of it? It seems like a hunk of junk anyways." He replied.

"So you saw the map didn't you?" Jacob asked this time.

"Yeah, but I didn't bother trying to look for these dots on the map. If destiny wants to choose me to do something that it wants me to do, then it'll have to follow my conditions." He said up front. Nobody had anything to say about that, that is, no one wanted to say what was on their mind right now. Everyone except a certain headstrong girl that is.

"That's it, is this some sort of joke?" Kiyoko exclaimed, unable to keep her thoughts about the boy or this whole experience bottled up any longer. "Why are we going through all of this? And why do we have to meet this rude, obnoxious kid? Why do we have to do anything? What's the point?"

"Kiki, you should calm down a bit." Torimon said as she tried to rub her back.

"No, Torimon, this is a complete waste of time! Why did we all have to meet, this isn't some sort of tv program, this is real life, or as real as it gets here. But nothing like this should happen in real life, this is all just some game!" she exclaimed. Everyone just watched the girl, all dumbfounded by her outburst. "I'm leaving." She paused for a bit and waited to log out but nothing happened, she just stood there waiting with her eyes closed.

(A/N: the way to log out of the Digital World is to think about logging out then it will happen, when the screen shuts down within your helmet, then that means that it's safe to take off.)

"What's the matter, I thought you were gone?" Keiji looked at her with uncaring eyes.

"I thought I was, let me try again." She waited for her screen to shut down but it didn't happen. "Why can't I get out?" She started to panic.

"Here, let me try." Blair said and closed her eyes and after a few moments, still nothing happened.

"What's going on?" Halomon looked at Blair in confusion.

"Why can't the humans log out?" Hotarumon asked. At this point, they all tried together but ended in the same result. Even Keiji gave it a shot but he still remained in his position beside the tree. After a moment, they heard the town below them starting to panic as kids all over were worrying and crying.

"I guess it isn't only us." Naoki said as everyone looked down at the dozens of kids trying to log out but are unable to.

"Everyone seems to be going into a state of panic." Wataru observed.

"This has never happened before." Makaramon said as the others started to wonder what they should do. Suddenly, a familiar voice started to speak out to them. "Young Users..."

"Haven't we spoken to this person before?" Halomon looked at her partner.

"Yeah, I remember. It was when we got our Digi-Gear that we heard this voice." Blair said remembering the event.

"You heard it too?" Naoki asked. Blair nodded then everyone started to speak about them too hearing the voice, though Voodoomon, who's not much of a talker, just nodded underneath his big floppy witch's hat.

"Young Users," The voice said again. "You... must help."

"Help who?" August responded to the womanly voice.

"Please help... there's a great... danger in the Digital World."

"What kind of danger?" Jacob asked this time.

"I shall explain... in details... later, please come."

"Come where?" Kitsunemon asked. Everyone didn't really enjoy getting their information in little bits and pieces at a time but still listened regardless.

"Cannot speak of... destination... upfront. Danger may be... near, not... safe." Her transmission seemed to be a bit fuzzy and seemed to be breaking up as well, though they still have no idea how she's contacting them.

"Then how are we supposed to find you?" Makaramon asked the mysterious voice. Just then, August's Digi-Gear started to beep and when he took it out a map instantly popped open and reveal a location marked with an X.

"Please take care... the Digital World... rests in... your hands." She said and that seemed to end the transmission.

"So... does anyone have anything to say about that?" August asked everyone who seemed a bit on edge. Save the Digital World? But they were just a bunch of kids who logged into the Digital World to have fun, they were just here to have fun, weren't they?
