A/N:Two stories at once, not bad for a rookie. This story will happen my way, so tough if you don't like the way I write.
Disclaimer: I don't own digimon, the show or the characters from any of their media. I will tell you what I do own. I also will say I will make this quite a long story, so hang in there, it's only my second fic.

Enjoy Chapter One

Chapter One: The Beginning

"The story." He said to himself. "A story I know well". It was true. He knew most of the stories in the Digital World, and the real world, since he decided to major in philosophy and ancient literature. His abstruct thinking helped him in this, and in battles.

He was Blademon, the leader of the Four Horseman Digimon and Ruler of the North Kingdom. Standing at six feet and only a Champion level, most didn't think much about him, until they saw him in battle. He was as strong as ten Mega level Digimon, and with his Twin Shadow Blades, nearly unstoppable. His attacks were Shadow Slash, Dark Blast, and Dark Eruption. He wore pitch black armor that covered him completely, but as agile as Dophlmon in water. His mask hid his face and only showed his blood-red eyes. And as his name suggests, many blades hidden in his armor. He had his own tragic story.

When he and his friends first came to the Digital World, he was last to get his digimon, about a week into the "adventure", but the first to have him digivolve. His partner was Dark Kotemon, a virus sword digimon. He evolved into Blademon, just as he was now. After two months, they learned who they were brought to fight, the Seven Great Demon Lords.

There was eight of them and seven Demon Lords, but the odds were in favor of the Demons. During the final confirtation he fought their leader, Lucemon, and came out victorous, but at a cost. When Lucemon was about to kill Dark Kotemon, he jumped in his way but both were "destoryed". Somehow, he merged with Dark Kotemon and digivolved to Demon Blademon, his ultimate level, and beat the Lord of Pride. This came with a price though, he could not become human or digivolve higher then Champion, until he found someone else to become his partner. Since then, he ruled the North Kingdom with his opposite, Healmon, the Lady of Light.

All of the four of the kingdoms were ruled by one of the Horsemen Digimon and their digimon partner. He had the title of Knight of Darkness. The others: Ricky was the Flame King, Ian was the Blacksmith; He was steel, and Jon was the Earth Lord. Their opposites were: Lily; the Water Mistress, Jenna; the Air Maid, and Brittney was the Nature Duchness. Healmon's partner was Jorden. Fire and Water ruled the west, Earth and Air the ruled east, and Steel and Nature controlled the south.

He called them to his castle today to discuss some very bad news.

"Hello Ian, its has been a long time hasn't it" He greeted Ian. The other members of the Four Horseman filed in after everyone else. When they first came to the Digital World, they were 16, now they were 20.

"Now then Raf, what's this meeting about?" Raf was his nickname, Rafael Recinos was his real name. "Something none of us are going to like. Take a seat please" he answered.

Once they were all seated, he decided that he might as well be blunt about "Someone stronger then the Demon Lords has recreated them, and the army of the Dark Area has been released as well. You all know what that means, don't you?" Blademon finished with a question.

"Yes." they answered without question. Ian added " Anything you want to add Blade?" He asked, refering to his other nickname. "Yeah, I call dibs on the Tamers" he smiled
"Damn you." the others chorused.

Tamer's Dimension: A few weeks after Runaway Locomon

Rika was very confused. She has been like this since she was controlled by Parsimon. She had told herself that she wouldn't fall for anyone, but now she was having feelings for the last person she could think of, Takato. She hated herself for falling for their "unofficial" leader, yet another side said it wouldn't be too bad to like him, and yet another side said that she had no chance against Jeri. Rika continued to argue with herself in her head with Renamon on the roof, watching.

Rika was sitting outside of her house, lost in her thoughts, when her D-Arch went off. Renamon instantly faded next to her. "Rika, the signal is coming from the park." she said coolly, like normal. "The park, of course it's the park. When will they finally pick somewhere new" Rika asked rhetorically as she started to run off, with Renamon jumping on building above. As she neared the park, she saw the usual digital field mist, but, it was red instead of pale blue. Once she entered the park, she saw Takato and Gulimon already there.

"Hey Gogglehead, do you know what is going on here?" Rika asked the moment she was a few feet from him.
"Not a clue, sorry." Takato said, scratching the back of his head. At that moment, the rest of the Tamers were there along with Impmon and his partners. Suzie was at home playing. Even Ryo and Jeri were here.
"Why does it not surprise my that Takato and Rika are the first ones here?" asked Henry, with Ryo agreeing. Almost like the mist knew they were here, it turned black and then it cleared with them inside a dome.
"Okay, what..." Kazu began but was cut off by a voice who yelled "Dark Blast!". Everyone scattered and just missed becoming part of a very large crater. As everyone looked up, they saw a tall, black armored digimon.
"Who are you?" asked Ryo.
"I am Blademon, one of the Four Horseman Digimon." the now IDed Blademon said in a deep, calm, almost bored voice.
"Takato, I think we need to Biomerge, he's strong" Gulimon said, being the first thing he said all day.
"Good idea, boy" Takato replied pulling out his D-Arch.
