Digimon Savers Tu: Return

[Opening: Hirari (Re-Fly Ver.) – Koji Wada]

Chapter 01: Starter

"Ichi, Let's play hide and seek!"

"Okay Toko-Chan! You hide and I'll find you!"

"Right I'll go!"

A young child about four years old turned toward a tree and started counting.

"One… Two… Three…"

The boy had messy orange hair and brown eyes.

"Four… Five… Six…"

He is seen wearing a yellow t-shirt and brown shorts.

"Seven… Eight… Nine…"

His name is Ichigo Kurosaki.

"Ten! Ready or not here I come!"

The boy ran through the park, searching for his little friend.

"I will find you, Toko-Chan!"

Even with all of his experience in the game, Ichigo had little luck finding his friend.

"I can't find him…" Ichigo muttered under his breath.

That's when something jumped on Ichigo's head.

"Got ya!"

"Argh!"

Both fell to the floor and Ichigo realized that he was just pranked by Toko-Chan.

"Toko-Chan! That hurt!" Ichigo whimpered while clutching his head.

"It was fun!" The little creature replied happily. The creature was mainly white with two long ears coming from its head and four leg-like limbs that he used to walk. "Can we do it again?"

"Toko-Chan! The game was about me not finding you!" Ichigo told the little creature.

"Huh, I thought that I had to hide and then seek you!"

"Nope! You hide and I find you! So I win!" Ichigo cheered happily.

Meanwhile, Toko-Chan's lip trembled and it started to cry.

"Toko-Chan what's wrong?!" Ichigo asked noting his friend's state.

"I wanted to win!" The creature cried.

Ichigo thought about what to say to his friend and finally decided to tell him what his mother told him "My Mommy tells me that sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, but it's the fun that counts!"

"Really?" The creature asked for reassurance.

"Really, because we're friends, so we have fun!"

"Right, Thanks Ichi!"

Toko-Chan jumped into Ichigo's arms and nuzzled him, all the while both friends laughing.

"Ichigo, Time to go home!" A voice called out in the distance.

"That's my Mommy; I'll come back tomorrow so we play more!"

"Okay Ichi! It's a promise!"

"ICHIGO!"

Ichigo's eyes snapped open. This is routine to him. Waking up, kicking his father's ass for being annoying and eating breakfast with his little sisters.

'Oh that reminds me…' Ichigo got up from bed and quickly sent a powerful kick toward his father general direction "SHUT UP OLD MAN!"

Isshin Kurosaki was promptly sent flying out of the room "WHY MY DELINQUENT SON!?"

Ichigo sighed and rubbed his neck.

It felt sore.

When he gained awareness of his surrounding, he opened his eyes and asked himself regarding the dream "What was that…?"

-DST:R-

Ichigo walked down the stairs and was met with the sight of Isshin crying in front of his mother photograph, which wasn't something out of normal.

In the table sat his sister, Karin while in the kitchen he heard Yuzu humming happily.

"Good morning"

"Morning Ichigo" Karin waved at him.

"Good morning brother!" He heard from the Kitchen.

He sat in the table and dug into his breakfast. It was nice of his sister to do this. He wouldn't be able to wake up earlier than the others to make breakfast… though waking up before his father…

As Ichigo evaluated the possibilities, Isshin stiffened at feeling something outside the house and decided to follow it "I'll be coming back to take you girls to school"

Ichigo ignored his father but he had one thing right. He had to leave now to school. Contrary to popular belief he was quite responsible and wanted to be at school in time.

So after finishing his breakfast he got up and left to school, least he be late.

As he wished his sisters a good day, Ichigo walked out of his house and managed to see in the distance as Isshin walked alongside someone who he could not mistake.

Urahara Kisuke…

The walk to the school was silent, mainly because he was alone, but it left him to his own thoughts.

'Why am I still thinking of that dream?' Ichigo questioned himself 'I know I used to have an imaginary friend called Toko-Chan… Geez I can't believe I did that…'

Then his thoughts turned toward his father's meeting with Urahara. It's not weird to see the shopkeeper around the house, but it usually meant that a situation occurred. Last time was about a year ago when apparently there was an incident regarding an old Kenpachi escaping of prison. He only learned of this because he happened on this conversation which took place in the living room of his house.

"Maybe it is nothing… last I heard Geta-Boshi was setting wards against hollows around the clinic…" Ichigo muttered under his breath, more to himself than anyone…

It did not take long for him to arrive to school and he had to say that seeing the building implode in front of him, was not what he expected to happen…

Screams filled his senses as he saw many students running away from the school. Screams filled his senses as he saw students trying to help the ones trapped under debris. A scream filled his ears as Tatsuki Arisawa gripped his arms and tried to pry him away from the scene of destruction in front of him…

"Ichigo!" A voice, Tatsuki, called to him.

"Tatsuki, What the hell is going on!?" Ichigo asked his childhood friend.

Tatsuki looked at him before realization struck her "The school… it's packed of them…" To Tatsuki eyes, the school was being destroyed by hollows. More than she can count. And she knew who they were looking…

Ichigo gritted his teeth at the reveal "Damn! Are Chad and Uryu there?" Ichigo questioned and she nodded "We need to help"

"How?"

Ichigo stopped in his tracks upon hearing her voice. It was pained and Ichigo realized something. He could not do a thing…

That went to the next reveal for him…

It was difficult for Ichigo to leave this to his friend. He always became stronger to protect his friends, but now it was impossible for him, after all he lost his power two years ago.

"Ichigo we need to leave!" Tatsuki pleaded with his friend who was rooted to his spot.

Tatsuki for her part knew what was going on his mind. It's something she could relate to him as she never had powers and, by logic, couldn't help her friends in their battles.

With sympathy, she grabbed his shoulders and told him "Ichigo trust them"

Ichigo looked at her and tried to refute her "But… I-I should be helping them…"

"But you can't" Tatsuki continued, confident that she could make him see reason "Ichigo, the hollows will kill you and then everything you did in the winter war will be in vain"

It took Ichigo some time to see reason, but he wouldn't accept it easily.

Silently, he turned toward Tatsuki and nodded.

They left to a safer place.

After all, they were after his head, he knew that much…

-DST:R-

"… Recent reports show that the attack on Karakura High School was not a terrorist attack as it was first thought. The forensic police, alongside a group of experts revealed that the explosion was caused by a gas filtration that upon reaching the kitchen, it exploded"

The image changed from the anchorman in the studio to an interview between the reporter and the police officer. Curiously enough from behind the police officer one could discern the figure of one Kisuke Urahara who was waving his cane as a kid would do in this situation…

"This was caused because the school lacked the required maintenance. The repair will take at best around two months"

"What about the students of the school? What will happen to them?!"

"That I can answer" The police officer said "The government of Japan decided to send the students to several schools around the country. Those who have familiars in other cities will get priority. The others will be given a stipend and a residence to attend to another school! As you may know, the children are our future-!"

Ichigo shut down the TV and sighed. He looked down at the paper in his hands which said where his new school is. Isshin worked fast, something along the lines of him turning into a hooligan for not attending school.

The fight between Uryu, Chad and Orihime, and the hollows destroyed a great part of the school. It went to the point that Urahara had to intervene because of the sheer quantity of hollows. After said fight he didn't hear a thing from them. Apparently they were fending a hollow insurgence in Hueco Mundo alongside Yoruichi and some Vizards.

His dad already reserved a car to take him to his new home, for the next two months, that is.

Yuzu and Karin already went to school so they said their goodbyes to him earlier. Karin gave her brother a good bye hug and left it at that but Yuzu was another issue. She clung onto Ichigo and didn't want to let go of him. It took the combined efforts of his sister and his father to let her go.

The sound of a horn going off announced the arrival of the car, breaking him of thoughts.

The car was set to take him to Yokohama, more specifically Minato Mirai 21.

Fortunately for him, he had a relative there, a second cousin if he was right.

Isshin being the outgoing person he is immediately contacted said person. Someone Ichigo never met, as far as he knew. His father said he met her once but he doesn't remember, so it actually doesn't count.

For him at least. For Isshin though…

Taking this in account, it seemed that this cousin of his was cared for by his mother, Masaki when she was younger, so she was delighted with the idea of meeting her son again.

Yippee…

Before leaving, Ichigo was stopped by his father.

"Ichigo, I know you're mature enough to live on your own, but I have to tell you something important" Isshin started his speech actually catching Ichigo's interest. It seemed important enough for him to hear. "That you're on your own doesn't mean that you have to let your delinquent instinct take over! You will be a man of your word and promise that you will not come back with a baby!"

Silence permeated the area as Ichigo processed his words.

In the other side of the city Urahara was drinking the tea that Tessai made for him. He saw sitting in his favourite table, in his favourite shop.

Nothing could ruin this moment.

"Tasty as ever" Urahara commented as he pulled out his fan feeling a disturbance in the force… the Reiryoku… "Can you make another cup?"

"Is it for you, boss?"

"No for our guest"

"Who?"

A crash followed and the mangled form of Isshin Kurosaki was seen in the ground of the Urahara Shop.

"Are, are Isshin… what did you do this time?"

"Gave my son manly advice" He said while giving thumbs up despite being in the floor in a bloody mess.

"I think it makes sense… want a cup of tea?"

"Yeah sure… can you treat my Gigai's wounds?"

"Of course, as soon as you repair my precious roof"

-DST:R-

A red faced Ichigo got in the car and indicated the driver where he was going.

Looking to the side, he saw the houses going by and eventually the route.

Easily getting bored, Ichigo pulled out his cell phone, sending a text to Chad.

"You there?"

There was no response at that and Ichigo sighed in disappointment. He tried texting Tatsuki, hoping for a reply.

"You're travelling as well?"

To Ichigo's surprise, he was answered rapidly

"I'm leaving in an hour. You already left?"

Sighing in relief as one of his friends texted him back, Ichigo tapped in his cell phone.

"Yeah I'm on route… bored out of my mind"

"Bored? Count all of the thugs you fought in the last year. You'll be asleep before starting!"

Ichigo chuckled at the idea. He did kick many idiots out there after all!

"Nothing to do I guess, see ya on the recess"

"See ya!"

Ichigo thought about it. He wouldn't see his friends until the summer break.

It would be hard, but Ichigo fought harder.

With nothing left to do, Ichigo slumped to the side of the car and started counting thugs.

"1… 2…. 3…. 56… 57… 58…. 99… 100… 101… 345… 346…"

"Toko-Chan, where are you?!"

Ichigo, like every day for the last month, went to play with Toko-Chan, but this time he couldn't find him.

"Come out Toko-Chan! Come out so we can play!"

"What's the matter, Ichigo?" His mother asked as she approached him. Ichigo ran at her and hugged her tightly while crying.

"Toko-Chan is missing!" Ichigo cried in his mother's embrace.

Masaki by her side smiled warmly at him and brushed his hair "Maybe Toko-Chan went home to be with his friends" 'Maybe he outgrew the age of imaginary friends…'

"But we promised to be here every day! He broke his promise!" Ichigo cried out.

"Ichigo, he's your friend, he wouldn't do it on purpose. If he's your friend then he wants what's the best for you"

"But what does he want for me?" Ichigo asked his mother.

"He wants you to have other friends maybe?" Seeing her son crestfallen expression, she decided to tell him something she and Isshin have talked about. "Ichigo, what do you say if we to the dojo we saw the other day and enrol you in Karate classes?"

Ichigo's eyes shined with child innocence "You're serious?!" He asked to what his mother nodded "Yeah! Thanks Mom!"

"No problem sweetie"

"KID!"

Ichigo jumped from his seat to the gruff voice of the driver "What?!"

"We're here"

Ichigo nodded and paid the man who left the place grumbling about stupid brats. Thankfully the trip was fully paid by his father own pocket.

The orange haired teenager looked around to find himself in Minato Mirai 21, a heavily populated zone of Yokohama. To the side he could see the Yokohama Landmark Tower and farther he could see Cosmo Clock 21, one of the tallest Ferris wheel in the world.

"Oi! You're Ichigo right?!"

Ichigo was startled by the voice calling him. He turned around and saw a woman in her mid-twenties in a light blue police officer uniform. She had long straight purple hair, dark brown eyes, red lipstick and white earrings.

"Yeah it's me, you must be Miki" Ichigo walked to her and extended his hand to her.

"It's been a long time Ichigo" She told him while engulfing him in a hug, much to his chagrin "I remember when you were a kid no more than five years old and now you are taller than me!"

"Yeah it's been a long time. Thanks for having me here" Ichigo bowed to her as a sign of gratefulness.

"No problem actually! Aunt Masaki took care of me when I was younger, so I would do anything I can for her family… well it is my family as well!" She smiled at him and motioned to the police car that was parked at the side of the street. "I'll take you to my apartment and then I will give you a tour!"

"Okay thanks"

-DST:R-

It was a dark room and little light filtered from the window which was covered completely. Dark illumination covered the bar area where a man stood while other one, a bulkier one, approached.

"So he left the town after all?" A man behind a bar asked while cleaning a cup. To many this seemed like a dull duty, but he found it quite pleasing.

"That he did" The second voice replied "I went to his school and found it destroyed. They were relocated and separated, so Ichigo is on his own"

"Do you plan on doing something then?"

"I guess someone can follow him… we can pull some strings to get closer to him" The second voice said as a devilish smile spread through his face "We need someone who could pass for a student…"

"I guess I will come in action that way, isn't it?" A third voice asked, a young man who was focused on the screen of his videogame console.

-DST:R-

"Nice place" Ichigo commented as he entered Miki's apartment "Police department must pay nice…"

"Err yeah they do…" Miki says awkwardly "Good pay… and vacations… yeah that"

Ichigo and Miki arrived to the place where they're going to live and dropped the orange haired teen's belongings. The place was a simple apartment. It had a living room joined with a dining room and the kitchen. To the side there is a hallway that leads to the bathroom and two rooms.

"This is your room, it's a bit cramped but it will work"

Ichigo opened the door to see a room a small room that had a futon in the floor, a desk and a chair.

"Its fine actually, thanks Miki"

"No problem!" She purple haired woman said to him "Now let's go to get something to eat and I'll present you to a friend of mine"

"Sounds good"

As they left, Ichigo nor Miki saw an orange terror coming out of Ichigo's belongings. Curiously enough, it came in the form of a plush toy…

"I'm free…" The Terror whispered as he went to the window and inhaled the fresh breeze of the sea… and the taste of beautiful woman "Kon is here…"

-DST:R-

He didn't think his ploy was discovered, after all, he kept his intentions for himself alone. If the man he wanted to kill did discover what he was planning…

Better be prepared…

Opening the door to the throne area, the man walked up to the centre of the room and kneeled.

"Did you ask for my presence, your majesty?"

"That I did" The man sitting on the throne said "It seems a war potential, Ichigo Kurosaki, has left his hometown. With the our forces ready to be deployed toward Hueco Mundo, we cannot afford soldat for the mission I'm going to ask of you to follow him and to eliminate him if he tried to involve himself in the war to come"

"But… wouldn't I be more useful in the battlefield?" The red haired man asked, confused by the order he's been told "The plan was for me to get rid of the Captain with the ice Bankai, right?"

"Do you question my decision?" The man's eyes' narrowed while exerting a pressure that fell over the red haired man's body like a ton of bricks, making him fall further to the floor.

"No, your majesty" When the man felt the pressure go, he stood up and left the room, all the while gritting his teeth and clenching his fists in anger and fury. He knew what Yhwach just did, he put him in his place and also left him far from the battle where he could have his chance against the Quincy king!

"Someday…"

"Someday what, Bazz-B?" Turning to the side, the red haired man, Bazz-B, he saw one of his oldest friends.

"Nothing Jugo… nothing" Bazz dismissed with a wave of his hand.

"You better watch yourself, Yhwach is not as lenient as I am…"

"I know, Jugo" Bazz-B said while nodding in tense understanding "I'll be leaving then…"

Jugram watched as Bazz-B left the hall while shaking his head, memories of their childhood filing his mind.

Setting those memories aside, Jugram proceeded to Yhwach's throne. 'Bazz is going to get killed one of these days… and I'm afraid it's going to be myself who does the deed…'

-DST:R-

"Wow this is pretty good"

"I tell you! I come here with my co-workers all the time!"

Now the cousins were in a bar getting something to eat and waiting for Miki's friend. Ichigo had a cheeseburger while Miki had a Salad.

"So you work in the police station, how long have you been there?" Ichigo asked her trying to start some conversation.

"Well I've been there for two years actually" She said while thinking her words carefully "Some of my friends and I used to work for a private security company that closed so we joined the police department"

"Ahh so that's why"

"What about you Ichigo? Last time I saw you, you were saying something along the lines of practicing Karate right?"

"Err… well I left it after mom passed away. I never got back to practicing" He said a bit gloomy about the topic.

"I'm sorry about that, I never got around visiting you guys after her…" Miki tried to apologize but she knew she had no excuse 'I was deep neck with DATS… That's not something I can say…'

"Don't worry. Karakura is a bit away and you had your life here"

"Thanks Ichigo"

"Anyway, lately I've been playing for different teams in school. They were paying me to play some games for them and I did some odd jobs…" Ichigo's eyes suddenly glazed over, not that Miki noticed.

"Wow, so you play sports now?" She asked to what he seemed irresponsive "Ichigo?"

"DAMN!" Ichigo got up from the table and rapidly took out his phone. He punched some numbers and waited for the other person to attend.

"WHAT THE HELL KUROSAKI! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO COME FOR THREE HOURS! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?"

That was the lovely voice of Ikumi Unagiya, Ichigo's boss.

"I'm sorry! It's just that with the school destroyed I had to move out and-"

"NO BUTS! WE HAVE A COMPROMISE WITH THE CUSTOMERS! YOU SHOULD BE HERE… Wait what?! Where in the hell are you?!"

"I'm in Yokohama with a cousin of mine! I had to move out because of the school being destroyed!"

"YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME!"

"YOU SHOULD HAVE WATCHED THE TV!"

"WATCH YOUR TONE! KAORU IS HOME!"

"I won't be working anymore for obvious reasons, sorry for that Ikumi"

"Tch Okay no worries, just be careful Ichigo!"

With that the conversation was cut and Ichigo sighed in relief. "She took it better than what I thought…"

Meanwhile everyone in the vicinity looked at Ichigo as if he just said that the sky is green and pigs can fly.

"She took it well?" Miki asked, unsure of what to expect. Even if the loudspeaker wasn't on, everyone in the bar could hear the violent woman shouting at her cousin.

"Yes she did. Usually she would kidnap me from school just so I go to work…"

Miki stared with a blank expression while inside she thought 'And here I thought only here weird shit happened…'

"Miki!"

Both cousins turned to see a blonde haired woman, about the same age as Miki who also wore a police officer uniform.

"Megumi! Come over here!" Megumi came over and sat beside Miki "He's Ichigo, he's my cousin. Ichigo, she's Megumi Shirakawa a co-worker and my best friend"

"Hello Ichigo nice to meet you" The blonde woman extended her hand to him to which Ichigo complied and shook her hand.

"Nice to meet you as well, Shirakawa"

"Please call me Megumi" She insisted "When you call me Shirakawa it makes me feel like I'm at work" This brought the memory of Satsuma yelling at them.

"Right…"

After the introductions the three of them went to walk around the commercial district. The conversations were led by Miki with Megumi following her lead and Ichigo usually answering and rarely bringing a topic of conversation.

They kept walking until Megumi had to leave for work again. Miki, as she took the day off, kept guiding Ichigo through the city. Eventually they hitched a train in Yokohama Station that led to the station Hisashi Hakuraku which was nearby to his new school.

"This is your new school" Miki pointed to the enormous campus that was the school. "Kanagawa Sohgoh High School"

"Wow, it sure is big!" Ichigo commented while seeing the student pour out of the school, most likely from afterschool activities, judging by the hour.

Soon enough, the day came to an end with Ichigo and Miki playing videogames in her apartment and eating pizza.

The next day Ichigo would start school once again…

-DST:R-

"Ichigo! You're late!"

"EH?!"

Ichigo jumped from his bed as fast as he could. Looking up he saw Miki half dressed with a mug in her hand… 'Don't let your eyes go south!'

"You should be getting up! School starts at nine!"

Ichigo regained his senses and got up from the bed. Normally his father's attack would awake him in time! In a sense he used his father as an alarm clock.

It didn't take him long to put on his clothes which consisted in a white shirt and brown pants. He put on brown shoes and finished his look with a white bracelet his sister, Yuzu, gave him.

"I'm going out!"

"Have a nice day!"

"You too!"

~DST:R~

Fortunately for him, Ichigo remembered the way to the school very easily.

Now we see him walking through the busy streets of Yokohama at a brisk pace. He had to be careful as to not collide with other pedestrians. The street was filled with people, a stark contrast to Karakura Town. He got hit and collided with many people along the way, one of them nearly toppling him over.

After that he made sure to keep his eyes on the road.

After walking for a bit, he reached the bridge that crossed one of the waterways that went to Tokyo Bay.

To the side he could see said bay and seeing the sun going up from there was an amazing sight for Ichigo. He wanted to stay more, but he had things to do.

Focusing on his task at the moment, Ichigo kept walking to Yokohama Station.

That's when strange things started to happen.

Suddenly Ichigo heard a buzzing sound coming from somewhere. It was a sound like crackling electricity. Looking around, a frown in his face, he found nothing out of normal. Only people walking the streets, as if they heard nothing.

It was interesting to note that he saw nor heard anyone being bothered by this electricity sound. Taking it as something his paranoid mind conjured, Ichigo continued on his way to the station, not thinking about that.

Unfortunately for him, he heard once again and this time more pronounced. He felt it was closer to him, somehow.

"What is this?" He asked himself still looking around for something strange. Up, down, left, right, Ichigo found nothing out of normal.

As he found nothing, he turned around and started walking again, but suspicious thoughts filled his mind.

Ichigo took out his phone to check the out the time and realized he was going late.

"Damn it, I'm going to be really late" He said, not noting how the screen on his phone buzzed, the hour changing to 99:99 before returning to normal.

He upped his pace and eventually he reached the station… to see the train leaving the station.

"Damn it all"

That's when he heard the buzzing again.

Now, completely annoyed by it, Ichigo turned fully around and was shocked by what he saw. It was nothing out of ordinary as it was just a bug.

Problem here is that it was a very big bug that buzzed in front of him. It was a beetle whose body was red colored with black lines covering its head.

But that was not the strangest thing, as it seemed to crackle in and out of reality. That is how he could better explain it.

From its body, bright square translucent pieces seemed to bleed and dispersed immediately after leaving the body.

For Ichigo this creature could only be one thing. In his defence though, he's not accustomed to anything beyond the spiritual realm…

"What kind of hollow are you?"

It seemed to only infuriate the beast that roared at him and rushed in his direction, all the while destroying parts of the station.

Debris fell as walls, stalls and balconies were destroyed as the beetle monster chased after Ichigo.

In the last second he regained his bearings and jumped to the side, with said beast crashing against a wall, making a hole in it.

"What the fuck was that?!" Ichigo roared to no one in particular, though it did bring up a good question. What the hell was it? What was its purpose? Why people were not crying about a red monster!?

"Call the emergencies!" One man said to another one who was at the payphone.

"No, call the police!"

"The fire-fighters! They will know what to do!"

"Call the guy from Ancient Aliens! Giorgio will know what's going on!"

"Someone please help me!"

To the last one Ichigo did react as he turned to look a woman who was trying to lift a piece of wall that fell on a man's right leg.

"I'm coming!" Ichigo shouted to the woman as he hurried to her position.

"Thank you!" The woman said gratefully. "My boyfriend's legs were crushed under this…"

"Don't worry, someone must have called emergencies by now, so he will be treated" Ichigo motioned for the woman to help him. Using a bar of steel, Ichigo used it to lift the boulder. "Take him out of there! I can't hold this long!"

"Alright!" The woman dragged the man away from the rock "Tadashi, are you okay?!"

"Argh… I've felt better…" The man muttered still feeling the pain.

With that said, Ichigo ripped a piece of cloth from the man's shirt and bandaged the injury "This part is merely external, so don't worry, the worst part was the shock from the boulder. He should be fine after treatment"

"Thank you so much for your help!" The woman told him while grabbing his hand.

"It's no problem; I'll go and see what the hell happened"

With that said Ichigo spent the next ten minutes helping people out until the police came and he was surprised to see Miki among them.

"Damn… this is going to be long…"

-BREAK-

[Ending: True Asia – PUFFY]

So I've been working on this for the better part of last year… and the other one…

Here it is, my new project: Digimon Savers Tu.

Now don't look too much into the name. It's just a wink to the title of Adventure Tri.

You know Tri is the phonetic sound for three and Tu is the same for two.

This story will be separated in six episodes which will be their own separate stories, much like the format you see in the internet for each of the Adventure Tri movies. Each episode will have their own separate chapters. I've seen something like this in a digimon tamers story, don't remember what it is called though… something about card-a-rama?

About who becomes a main character in this story has been decided long ago. Ichigo of course has been chosen to lead this new generation along his partner which is seen in the cover which will bring small spoilers about the plot of the chapter. Here you can see what it is clearly.

Now for pairings… well I have the moral right to deviate from cannon. I love Orihime but doing that pairing when doing a crossover is a waste of a great opportunity. Don't worry though, there won't be something sick like digimonxhuman pairing. If you're looking for that, I'm sorry to disappoint, but you came to the wrong place.

Just for your information, this story has already been planned and thought thoroughly. My friends agree that this is a pretty good original plot and that the digimon partners fit more or less.

Take in account the More or Less please…

Now I always like to do something in my stories. As a way to get people to discover new music I set a metaphorical opening and ending for a certain quantity of chapters. So please listen to the songs I give away because they are good! Though many of them you may have 'to get' the single of said band. The way you get it is not my problem!

What else… mmm… ah yeah that. English as you may see or not, is not my native language. So please if you see any grammar error, as minuscule as they may be, please report to me. I'm trying to be serious for once with this story, so please help the poor eyes of the visitors who run away upon seeing my writing!

-o-

Now onto the story!

This is, just like the title says, a start to the story. It sets the reasons why Ichigo is not in home, why he goes to Yokohama in essence. I gathered that Karakura town is just that, a town and so I decided for fucks sake that they only have one school.

Now I think that it was when I was re-watching Digimon Savers that I realised that Miki has the same family name as Ichigo and from there everything went to hell.

Here's the result!

The Kuwagamon is another wink to the movies that are coming out. But I assure you that from now on, everything you see will be new. Take in account tough that this is a sequel to Savers so there will be similar elements that I managed to twist to my good grace.

At the end of each chapter I will take the time to explain everything I can that may have been left out of the story.

A thing I will say RIGHT NOW is that the dead do not meddle with the deals of the living unless it affects the balance of life and death. Saying that I'm afraid no Shinigami will be seen in the story as a main element. Maybe a cameo or two.

This is a story were Ichigo is human as he can be. No Quincy powers, no Full Bringer and no Shinigami powers. For Ichigo at least.

This happens before Lost Substitute Arc and after Fake Karakura Arc. Ichigo knows much and at the same time is ignorant to many more.

Now as I already have this episode written, I'll be uploading it weekly.

Some of you may know this but I reply to every review. If you review in chapter one, expect your reply in chapter two.

I will reply in this way though to those who are following the story. The others will get PM or mentions in the reviews of the current chapter.

So that's all, as usual I will tell you the name of the next chapter which I'm afraid was inspired by me playing Pokémon, sorry people!

NEXT CHAPTER: FATEFUL ENCOUNTER

Bye-bye!
