Authors Notes:

Hello! This is my first fan fiction and I hope you all enjoy it.

This is just the pilot/prologue of the story so nothing much really happens and explains why it might be a tiny tad short. I had this idea brewing in my mind for a while and finally thought I should give it a go and write it out. Like I said I hope you enjoy it when Chapter one comes out and I would love to hear what you think!

Review, comments and helpful criticism are much appreciated!

Pilot Chapter

Digital World

Patamon flapped his wing like ears as fast as he could; he was being chased by something of pure evil. If TK were there he would have been able to digivolve into Angemon and take on this threat head on. Sadly his partner wasn't here and the little guy was on his own but he didn't give up hope that he could manage to get to a TV and send a S.O.S message to TK.

Patamon thought that today did feel weird but he couldn't put his finger on it, the sky was clear and the beautiful blue it always was. Digimon went about doing their own things while he floated by minding his own business, he was going to find one of the other Digimon and see if they wanted to play with him. He was half way to Gomamon's area when he was suddenly attacked.

The little tanned creature just managed to avoid it and took off as he heard a wicked laughter echo behind him. This evil Digimon was playing with him for its own amusement or else it would have seriously hurt or maybe even killed him.

"Evil Wing" the voice broke through Patamon's thoughts, a wave of bats came flying towards him, each bursting into flames as they neared.

"Boom Bubble" Patamon yelled as he unleashed his attack, he knew it would do nothing but it was worth a try.

The bats disappeared and Patamon continued flying away, he saw a clearing up ahead and in the middle he noticed a TV. This was his chance to send the message for help and he increased his speed as he was now filled with hope. Once he sent the message he could easily hide from the attacker and it sounded easier in his mind. Patamon was busy in his mind that he didn't hear the next wave of the attack, the little tanned creature was now being burnt by the swarm of bats and was spiralling out of control towards the ground.

The little Digimon let out a scream of agony from both the attack hit and when he smacked of the forest floor and bounced a few times, he landed in front of the TV luckily. With all his strength he mustered up, he slowly wobbled back onto all fours and reached out towards the screen.

'TK, TK help….me' Patamon cried in his own head.

Before his little paw could make contact with the glass he was pushed back against the grassy floor, someone was holding him down with their foot and the little Digimon was enraged that someone thought so little of him that they would step on him like an ant. He growled at the unknown attacker as he turned his head to try and get a look at them. His eyes widened at the sight of the figure wearing a black hoodie, the hood over their face and casting a shadow so that their identity was hidden as her bangs leaked out of the hood. Just like the majority of the outfit, her hair was black from what Patamon could see. It was a human! A human girl but how did she manage to attack him and why? The endless questions poured through his mind.

Everything this girl wore was black or grey, the cargo shorts and main body of the hoodie was black along with her leg warmers and sneaker shoes. The sleeves of her hooded top were short and grey; she had cotton like Arab scarf round her neck. The only white on her was her long sleeved top that had thumb holds cut out on the end of the sleeve, her belt was black and held her black and yellow D-3.

Patamon let out a gasp as he looked at the D-3 then at her neck, dangling from a piece of string was a tag! It was like the one TK had but only it was silver and the crest was a faded out yellow and the symbol was upside down and looked broken almost.

"Go on call for help you pathetic little creature" the girl said with an irritated tone to her voice as she pressed her foot down more on to Patamon.

Patamon turned his attention back to the screen, it was still black but in the reflections he could see the Digimon that attacked him. LadyDevimon

Patamon felt the fear build up within him and he started to struggle against the girl's foot.

"TK, TK help me!" Patamon cried out as tears left his eyes.

Real World

The sky was blue as the sun shone down in the park; the light breeze rustled a few leaves in the tree that the children sat under. Summer would soon end and so the digidestined gathered together for a picnic thanks to Yolei as she supplied the majority of the food there. The only people missing from this little meeting were Mimi as she was in America along with Willis and Michael. Tai had convinced Matt, Davis, Ken and TK to a game of football while the girls and the three boys who didn't want to join just sat down to chat with each other.

Cody was deep in thought as he wondered what Armadillomon was doing right now, did he miss him? Of course they both missed each other, everyone in the group missed their Digimon but due to summer activities they could spare no time for the digital world but that would change. Everyone gathered today just so they could make free time for their friends in the Digiworld.

"Yolei have you confessed yet?" Sora asked the young purpled haired girl, this brought out a blush on Yolei's face.

Yolei glanced down to the grass just beneath her feet and shook her head in reply, only a select few knew of Yolei's crush on Ken. The young girl's eyes then glanced up again and followed her crush as he kicked the ball towards the makeshift goal.

"I don't know, what if I mess up the friendship we have?" she questioned the others.

Girls sure act weird when they are in love, Cody thought. This made him think about how Davis acts around Kari when TK is next to her, he tries to show off and gain points with the child of light.

'People sure do act weird when they are in love' Cody heard his own voice echo in his head as he cradled the prune juice carton in his hand. He was about to dive deeper into his thoughts when a beeping noise pierced through and brought him out of his mind.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked for the source of the beeping, they all checked their digivices but only one person voiced their concern.

"Patamon's in trouble!" TK said his expression matched his tone both full of worry for his little friend.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's get going" Davis yelled almost too excited that probably everyone was about to go back into the digital world.

Everyone knew that Izzy's apartment wasn't too far away and his mother would be out shopping so they wouldn't be disturbed. TK and Davis lead the way with Izzy trailing behind them since it was his house he would have like to get there first before either one of them broke the door down. It only took five minutes of running before they were all in the red haired boy's room each one ready to go as the computer started up.

"Can't this machine turn on faster?" Davis asked and was shot a glare from Izzy.

"So here is the plan, we need to keep a few of us here in case my mum comes back. The rest can head on over to the digital world and look for Patamon" Izzy said as he typed away at the keyboard.

TK and Davis obliviously would be going into the digital worlds as nothing could keep Davis out of the action and TK's partner and friend was the one who called for help. The other youngsters all volunteered to go with them while the older ones hanged back. Only if the younger ones called for reinforcements would the older ones go in.

"Okay the digiport is open but be-" Izzy was cut off by Davis yelling out, "Digiport open!"

Digital World

With a white flash of light all the younger kids were downloaded and taken into the digital worlds. All the older kids could do was sit back and hope for the best.

"Patamon! Patamon where are you?" TK shouted as he wondered about the clearing, searching for his friend.

There looked to be a sign of a struggle as most of the grass looked a little crispy and the smell of singed fur lingered in the air. The area was deathly silent which wasn't a good sign for anyone.

"Davis!" a familiar voice yelled from behind the group, they all turned to see Veemon running towards them along with the other Digimon.

"You came just in time, something bad is happening" Gatomon yelled as she closed the gap between her and Kari.

Everyone was here apart from Patamon which made TK fear the worst, his partner should be around here and maybe one of the other Digimon seen him. TK decided to wonder further from the group shouting for his friend and into the trees because what if Patamon fled and was currently hiding somewhere. Many images of Patamon being hurt flashed in TK's mind and it only made his concern grow.

"Patamon" TK shouted for the final time before he heard the faint reply from his best friend. Patamon was badly hurt and resting inside a hollowed out tree, both where happy to see each other. TK took the little Digimon in his hands and cradled him close, the Digimon had cuts and bruises all over his small body, TK felt a twang of guilt build up inside him for he wasn't here for his friend.

"Oh Patamon I am sorry, I wasn't here for you" TK said feeling tears start to form, Patamon looked up at his friend and smiled a little. He ignored the smell of burnt fur as he hugged Patamon close.

"Don't worry TK it isn't your fault"

The blond boy turned in every direction to make sure that the enemy wasn't there with them, he had wondered quite a distance from the others and with Patamon in bad shape both of them wouldn't be able to fight.

"TK we have to join the others" Patamon's squeaky voice filled the silence. On their way back Patamon filled him in on what happened.

The Digimon had just finished telling their friends of the sudden dark atmosphere that came over the digital world when TK returned. They all turned to see TK with Patamon but the expression on TK's face made them worry. Cody knew this certain side of TK well, he dubbed this the dark side of him, the angry side that hated the forces of darkness.

Real World

The older teens had started playing a card game while they waited and Tai was losing. A white light filled the room and soon the younger kids were piled on top of Joe. Joe let out his famous phrase 'Why always me?' when the light left the room.

Joe tended to Patamon's wounds while everyone sat round listening to TK tell them what Patamon had told me. He told them that Patamon was attacked by LadyDevimon and a strange girl whom had a black and faded yellow D-3 and the crest of hope. Everyone looked at him as if he was crazy. Izzy was taking in this information and running all possible scenarios through his brain.

"But TK I thought you were the barer of Hope" Ken was sitting on the floor staring up at TK, Wormmon by his side.

"I am, from what Patamon said it was like my crest but the symbol was upside down and the image looked somewhat broken" TK ruffled his hair in frustration. It didn't make sense to any of them.

"We need Gennai" Izzy mumbled to himself as he continued to process the information.

Maybe Gennai knew what was going on but he was difficult to get a hold of whenever the children needed him. Hopefully he would get in contact sooner rather than later.

"Either way I have a feeling we might be facing off with a new enemy and possibly an old one" Tai voiced his opinion. Everyone could only nod in agreement. A heavy atmosphere started to linger above them and it made them a little depressed.

Else where in the Digital World

A hoodied male stood at the cliff edge as he stared off into the distance, the digital world was too bright for his liking and he planned to bring darkness to it. His rookie Digimon DemiDevimon hovered over his right shoulder, the black and faded out pink D-3 in his hands. The colour didn't bother him as much since it was more of a grey than pink as was his crest. A crooked grin spread across his face as he was joined by eight others.

Each had their own faded D-3, crest and Digimon and each just as twisted as the other, apart from one of the children sadly, he was just a cowardly mess.

The youngest was an eleven year old blonde girl with frosted blue eyes; she wore a red and black Lolita dress and a parcel to match and black and white tights and shiny black dolly shoes, she looked like a doll with her fair skin. The Digimon that stood by her side was Candlemon and her D-3 was a dark red and black like her outfit.

The second youngest of group was a thirteen year old girl with pink hair, green eyes and sun kissed skin, her eyes show how hostile she could be, she wore nothing more than a simple tank top, cargo trouser pants and a belt to hold her black and greyed out blue D-3. Her Digimon was Shamanmon.

Next to her was another female with a slightly dark tone of skin and light brown hair and blue eyes, she had wore an unbuttoned shirt with a purple t-shirt under it with grey skinny jeans. Her belt held her black and purple D-3. By her feet stood Dokunemon watching as the sun set.

The female that attacked Patamon was next to her and the leader of the group, both she and the other female were the same age, fifteen years old. A black Gatomon sat in front of her smiling.

The leader of the group was sixteen and held the black and greyed out pink D-3. He took to wearing a black hooded zipper under a body warmer with black jeans.

Moving on was the second oldest another sixteen year old with long white hair tied up in a small pony tail and dead black eyes that show no emotions, he wore a plain shirt and white skinny jeans with black doc boots that were unlaced. His Digimon was a Mushroomon and his D-3 was black and faded out green.

The cowardly looking one with short brown hair with eyes to match and dark skin pigment looked like he tried his best to 'punk' up and make himself too meaner than he really was. Hidden by his long coat was a black and orange D-3 and Hagurumon stayed near him.

The last person was another male with red hair and violet eyes who seemed like he only stayed in the sun for a short time as his skin was slightly tanned, he looked like he would be unreliable; he opted for a smart but casual look with his shirt half tucked in to his trousers. In his coat pocket was a black and grey D-3 and a Goblimon beside him.

"Soon we will take the entire colour from this world and fade it to grey. The real world and Digital World will feel the power of our Digimon and Crests" the leader said to his followers who all seemed to have their own slightly wicked smile, apart from the cowardly looking guy and the girl who attacked Patamon. She just seemed unimpressed with everything at this moment especially the cowardly guy.
