Disclaimer: I think we're all pretty clear on the fact that I don't own Digimon. I do however own the plot of this story, Crystal, Ray, Ashe, Joel, and any digimon that I make up.

A/N: I was going to give up on this story, but I decided that it wouldn't be fair to the few people that actually read this, so I instead decided to rewrite it. I really wasn't happy with some of the things I wrote before, so there will be some changes. The plot isn't going to changetoo much though. I also think that I'm going to create new digimon for the new warriors rather than just using Ranamon and the others. Oh, and I decided to make Joel younger.

I'm going to be using the Japanese names(only for the characters though, I don't know all of the japanese names for the digimon) so for those of you who don't know them, here's a chart saying who's who:

Izumi - Zoe

Kouji - Koji

Kouichi - Koichi

Takuya - Takuya

Tomoki - Tommy

Junpei - JP

Ages:

Izumi - 18

Kouji - 18

Kouichi - 18

Takuya - 18

Tomoki - 16

Junpei - 19

Crystal - 18

Ashe - 18

Joel - 15

Ray - 18

Ok, now that that's all cleared up, enjoy the fic!

Digimon 05: Chaos Evolution

Chapter 1: Old Friends, New Enemies

Izumi Orimoto woke up to the sound of her alarm clock blaring. Slowly sitting up, she reached over and shut off the annoying object. She yawned and looked at the time. 7:01. She groaned. It was time to get up for school. Today was her first day of her last year of high school, and it was also her first day at Shibuya High. For the last three years she had been going to a private school for girls, but after constant begging she had convinced them to let her go to public school with her friends. They weren't too happy about it, especially since all of her friends were boys, but they knew it would make her happy so they gave in. She was excited about finally going to school with her friends, but she also dreaded the thought of going to new school. Fortunately her friends would be there for her. With that thought, she reluctantly climbed out of bed and headed for the shower.

About an hour later, Izumi was dressed and headed out the door. She was wearing a white tank-top, a pair of tight-fitting blue jeans, a purple belt, a pair of white and purple sneakers, and a pair of small silver hoop earrings. She had a light purple messenger bag to carry her books in, and her long blonde hair was pulled up into a simple ponytail with a few strands framing her face. The school wasn't that far away, so she just walked there.

When she got there she somehow made her way through all of the students to the office to get her schedule. She looked over her schedule and saw that she had to go to room 103 for homeroom, and after that she had English, and then History. She walked out of the office to go to homeroom when she realized she had no idea where room 103 was. She was about to go back and ask someone, when something(or someone) collided with her, successfully knocking her to the ground. She looked up and didn't know whether to be relieved or pissed. Takuya was looking down at her with a sheepish grin on his face. She rolled her eyes at him and accepted the hand he offered to help her up.

"Sorry about that Izumi, I wasn't paying attention." Takuya apologized. She just laughed at him.

"Don't worry about it. I'm actually really glad I ran into you, because I am totally lost." she said, handing him her schedule.

"Uh...let's see. Room 103? That's Kouji's homeroom. Down that hallway, third door on the right." Takuya said, pointing to a hallway on his left. "Kouji can show you where your next class is, we all have that class together. Anyway, I'm late, so I'll see you later."

He ran off to some other part of the building, so Izumi just followed his directions. She walked up to the door he had pointed out to her and nervously knocked.

"Come in." she heard a woman call, most likely the teacher. She opened the door and walked in.

"Hi, you must be the new student, Izumi right? I'm Ms. Takara." the teacher said, smiling and ushering Izumi into the classroom. She scanned the class for an empty seat, and found the only one. "There's only one empty seat left, so you can sit in the back next to Mr. Minamoto."

As expected, there was an outburst from about every girl in the class about how unfair that was and how much they wanted to sit next to Kouji. Ms. Takara silenced the class and Izumi nervously made her way to her seat, with every girl in the class glaring at her. Kouji just smiled at her(well, as close to smiling as he got), and she couldn't help but blush and smile back.

The rest of the day was rather uneventful other than all the glares she received. Finally it was time for lunch, and Izumi was so glad to be able to talk to some people who didn't hate her. She practically ran to the cafeteria when her class let out. This probably wasn't the best idea though, because she ended up running into someone. More specifically, one of Kouji's fan girls.

"Watch where you're going, loser!" the girl rudely, dusting herself off and flipping her long brown hair.

"Sorry," Izumi apologized, trying to get away from this girl as fast as she could.

"Whatever, new girl, but let me tell you something. The name's Crystal, and I'm the prettiest, most popular girl here. And it's only right that I get the cutest, most popular boy, Kouji. So stay away from him! He's mine, and there's no way he'd talk to a freak like you anyway." she said, and Izumi had to keep herself from laughing at how stupid this girl sounded, especially with her two little flunkies nodding in agreement behind her.

"Uh, sure, he's all yours. Can I go now?" Izumi said, wishing this Crystal girl would just go away so she could go talk to the guys.

"Whatever." was the only reply she got as Crystal and her followers walked off in the other direction. Izumi rolled her eyes at her and continued to the cafeteria. She found the guys and quickly went over to where they were sitting.

"Hey Izumi," Kouichi greeted her. She smiled at him and sat down.

"What took you so long?" asked Takuya. Izumi just groaned.

"I ran into some girl. I think her name was Crystal." she replied. Kouji rolled his eyes.

"That would be the president of my fan club. What did she say to you?" he asked.

"She gave me the whole 'Kouji's mine so keep your dirty hands off of him' speech. She's the fifth girl today." she said, recalling several similar incidents.

"That many? What happened? Did you sit next to Kouji in homeroom?" Takuya asked, grinning. Izum just nodded.

"That officially puts you at the top every girl's most hated list." he said.

"Yea, thanks for the info Takuya."she said.

Finally the day was over, and Izumi couldn't be happier. That was probably the worst day of school she'd ever had. The only good thing was that she had every class with Kouji. She smiled just thinking about it. The group met outside of the school before they went home.

"So, you guys wanna hang out or something?" Takuya asked.

"I can't, I have to help out my mom with something." said Kouichi. He waved goodbye and started walking home. Takuya looked hopefully at Kouji and Izumi.

"Sorry Taki, I think I'm just gonna head home." Izumi replied, yawning. It really had been an exhausting day.

"Me too, my dad said he wanted me home right after school, sorry. Hey Izu, want me to walk you home?" said Kouji, turning to Izumi. She shook her head.

"Thanks for the offer, but you said you needed to get home and I don't want to hold you up." she said, smiling.

"Don't worry about it, your house isn't too far from mine, I'll make it home on time." he said. He didn't really have to be home anyway, he just wanted a chance to talk to her alone.

"Ok then, let's go. Bye Takuya!" Izumi said, walking off with Kouji. Takuya snickered.

"Yea, see you tomorrow, love birds!" Takuya called after them. Kouji gave him the finger and kept walking.

It took them about ten minutes to get to Izumi's house. They walked up to her door and Izumi turned to say goodbye.

"Thanks for walking me home Kouji." she said, smiling. He smiled back at her.

"Yea, sure. Izumi?" Kouji began, trying hard not to sound nervous.

"Yes?" she asked, a little curious. Just what did he want to ask her? He looked kind of nervous.

"I...I really like you, and I was wondering if you...um...might want to go out with me sometime? Like on a date?" he stuttered out. She was silent, and he took it as a no. He looked down and was about to walk away when she saw this and realized what he must have thought.

"No! I mean, yes! Yes, I would love to go out with you!" she said quickly, causing him to look up.

"Really?" he asked. She smiled and nodded. He smiled too and walked up to her, kissing her on the cheek before walking away. She just stood there in shock for a few minutes, soaking up what had just happened. Kouji, her best friend and the guy she had liked for so long, had just asked her out. On a date. And even better, he kissed her! Smiling, she walked into her house.

"Hey mom, I'm home!" she called out happily. Her mom walked out from the kitchen.

"Hi sweetie, how was your first day?" her mom asked. Izumi just continued to smile.

"Great mom, just great." she replied before going upstairs to her room. She sat down at her computer desk, deciding to go online and check her e-mail before doing her homework. She had two new messages. One was from Takuya asking how her walk home was, to which she just rolled her eyes. The other was from an address she didn't recognize. Shrugging, she decided to open it anyway. The second she did, the computer screen went black. Then there was a bright light, and she looked over on the desk to see her cell phone glowing. She gasped as it morphed into another familiar device. It stopped glowing, and she reached over to pick up the device. As soon as she touched it, there was another bright light, and that was the last thing she remembered before everything went black.

To Be Continued...

So, what did you think? Personally I am so much happier with this than I was before, and I hope you guys liked it too! Also, I apologize for any spelling/spacing/grammar errors. Please Review!
