Vengeance of the Lost - Prologue

* * * * *

Nothing wants to just give up and die. Such a thing is true for all living things. Everything alive on this Earth, or even the Digital World, has the right to live.

In the year 2003, a boy named Kouichi Kimura was pulled into the Digital World. There, his confused and angst-filled mind were influenced by the corrupted Cherubimon, brainwashing the boy. Kouichi became the Corrupted Warrior of Darkness: Duskmon.

Now as Duskmon, Kouichi had no memory of who he used to be, and thought he was a humble and loyal servant to Cherubimon. But that all changed when he met one Kouji Minamoto – who turned out to be his twin brother.

Duskmon started having sudden spasms of memories, but he did not consider them his own. In truth, this was the old Kouichi surfacing from the dark and twisted mind that was controlling his "body". This caused the Warrior of Darkness to have a freakish obsession with battling with his younger twin, in order to find the answers he sought.

In the end, it was at the hands of Kouji that Kouichi was lifted of this dark presence, and his Spirits of Darkness were purified, creating Lowemon, and Kaiserleomon.

But the "old" Kouichi never gave up on its strife to serve the Darkness. Nothing more than a collection of floating angst itself, it slowly collected more and more Digicode until it finally had enough strength to form a body, and entered the one place where he, or rather it, would find Kouichi.

The real world.

Red: Well, I must admit I'm kinda happy with this introduction.

Jenrya: Seeing as you could not write it any other way.

Red: …

Kouichi: ::reads through notes:: Well, it looks like this is Kouichi-centric, huh?

Red: You bet it is. Torturing you for a change might be fun. ^^

Kouichi: ::gulp::

Rika: Oh, boy. Kouichi's gonna get hurt.

Davis: Yeah, well, he's still not as great as me!

Jenrya: That reminds me, when is that other fic coming out? The one that's both one-sided Daikari and Takari?

Red: Eh…Dunno. It depends on how well liked this is.

Kouichi: But it still ends up with me getting hurt a lot, right?

Red: ^_^ You got it!

Jenrya: ::sighs:: Anyways, the only thing I see you borrowed from was Akino Ame's With Broken Wings Introduction, with the "In the year 2003…" line.

Red: Yeah. I couldn't think of any other way to word that…anyways, I hope you'll all enjoy this ^_^. It is Kouichi-centric, its not Koukou, and its got plenty of angst.

Rika: Now, review before Kouichi gets to kill Red for this fic.
