Remus: I don't own Digimon, Toei does. Digimon characters and concepts are uses without permission. On a different note, the final couple in this fic may not be the ones shown here; I will not tell anyone what couples there might eventually be in this fic, you'll just have to read and find out.
Six years had passed since the devolution of the D-Reaper, and much had happened to the Tamers. Takato had gotten over his infatuation with Jeri, although their continuing friendship was on the verge of becoming something more. Ryo had asked Rika out a few times, but she always said no. The Tamers were all in the last months of their sophomore year, and starting to plan for college. They were enjoying a good life, the future seemed bright. All that changed when a sleek, silver rocketship fell out of the sky and crashed into Shinjuku Park.
"What is it?" "It's a spaceship you nitwit!" "I can see that, but where's it from, and why is it here?" Suddenly, a door opened and a man stepped out. His gaze wandered across them, and after a pause he said, "Good, you're all here." "Who the heck are you?" "I am known as Kiowata, now, please stay out of my way, I will explain as I work." He told them that in his time, there were 5 known worlds: the Tamer's real world and digital world, another set of real and digital worlds were the digidestineds had lived, and a 5th world which was the common future of the other four. He told them that the fifth was a world of complete balance between good and evil, and that if it hadn't been made, the ever more powerful good and evil digimon (which were born in order to preserve the balance) would eventually be so powerful that entire universes would be destroyed by their battles. He said that a strange and powerful evil force had somehow appeared in the future in his world and in the Tamer's real world, and that if it could make itself present in the other three, time itself would cease to exist. By then he had finished building what couldn't be anything but a gateway of some sort.
"Why are you building that gate thing here?" "This park has strong ties to other worlds, which is why it was the site of multiple BioEmergences. It is the safest place for this gateway." "Where's it connected to?" "It will be connected to the future of this world, where it is safe to do battle, but first I must construct a similar gate in the alternate real world." "Why would you do that?" "Two reasons: one, this is far too powerful for you to defeat without the digidestineds help, and second, a triangular passageway is far more stable than a two-way one. If you will excuse me, I must go the the other version of this place. I will send an envoy when it is time to enter." With that, he walked over to his ship and pushed it up to a vertical orientation. "Woah, how'd you do that?" "Simple, I am part human, part data." To prove it, he jumped 50 feet up the door and swung inside. It slid closed and he took off.
