Part One

And So It Begins...

Prologue

It was a morning like any other, at least in America. That was Eugene's native country. Eugene, who attended college since he was eight, lived in the cozy town of Arlington, Texas. However, that's not where he got his digimon. It was on the first day of a summer camp in Japan, the same camp where Taichi and the others got theirs. Unbeknownst to them, this was when Hikari was sent to the digital world as well. Eugene and Hikari met up in the digital world shortly after they arrived.

But there was something special about Hikari. For starters, she had no digimon companion. But the thing that really stuck out was her digivice. Instead of the normal, white digivice, she had a pink one. However, that wasn't the only thing different about it. For some, unknown reason, it gave all sorts of information about her at the press of a button. It also could heal the wounded and rejuvenate those low on energy with an odd beam of light that shot out of it.

There was something about Eugene, too. His digimon was a dinomon, a small, velociraptor-like digimon with an acidic bite that was quick to anger. This dinomon wasn't like the usual dinomon, for instead of being evil, it was good.

Together, they discovered the ruins that would change their lives forever. Inside was the explanation of Hikari's digivice, fourteen similar to it, and a prophecy telling of the destruction of the current digital world, a great war, and the creation of a new, different digital world.

To prepare for the war, Eugene and Hikari trained to increase their strength, speed, sight, hearing, and stamina every day. Back then, time flowed much faster in the digital world than in the real world. Several millennia of digital time went by, yet they aged according to earth time, which flowed much, much slower. Then during the midst of a battle, Hikari was sent home in a portal, leaving both Eugene and her digivice behind.

Later, Eugene met up with another girl. Her name was Elizabeth Wagner, but she preferred to be called Beth. He tried to tell her what was to come. She didn't believe him at first, but when she saw the ruins for herself, she had a change of heart.

Six Earth years afterward, two years after the fight with Neomyotismon, our story begins. Eugene had just awoken and was eating breakfast. A news flash appeared on the television.

"Digimon are attacking various cities in Japan. They seem to..."

The signal was lost. Eugene nearly choked. He checked his computer. The portal to the digital world couldn't be opened. The digital world was gone. Today was the day. He grabbed his custom built laptop and rushed into his room.

"Dinomon, wake up!" he shouted. "The digital world is gone! The war has started!"

Eugene filled his bag with several necessary items, including his life savings and two small androids he had built himself. In one of his pockets he put a digitanium flute he made while with Hikari. He left the house, Dinomon trailing him, and ran as fast as he could to Beth's house across town. He knocked on her door.

"Did you hear the news?" he asked.

"If you can call that news, then yes. Fairymon, let's go!" Beth answered.

"Dinomon, go mega."

Using the power of the Digivice of Logic, Dinomon immediately digivolved to his Mega-level form, Warraptormon, a fierce, acidic wargreymon-like digimon. Beth took hold of Fairymon and, with Eugene, climbed onto Warraptormon's back. Then together, they flew off and headed towards Japan.
