Chapter One: The Return
The forest was alive with various species of digimons chirping merrily by the tree sides. The waters were full of some tiny digimon gushing about how much they had helped the digidestined to take down the emperor.
''Don't you think it's time for a swim?'' Gabumon asked, while glancing down at the huge lake before him.
His companion, seated beside him replied. "Nah,'' came the lazy reply. He laid his back down on the grassy hill and closed his eyes.
''Agumon!'' whined Gabumon. Surely, Agumon had not fallen asleep? "AGUMON!" Gabumon called again.
Agumon opened his eyes and stifled a yawn from escaping with his right claw. The water was unusually still; not a ripple of movement at all. It seemed as if time had frozen the lake in place. Perhaps a digimon was responsible for the stillness of the water?
Gabumon's voice interrupted his thoughts. "What do you think it is?" he asked.
"It might be a water digimon," Agumon suggested.
"It's the ancient Bluemon."
Gabumon and Agumon's eyes widened. Where had that voice come from? The two turned around to face their new companion. The King of Beasts stood behind them, his eyes focused intently on the lake. "Ancient Bluemon?"
Leomon nodded. "I'm pretty sure it's him." The leaves of the trees rustled as a gentle wind swept through. "Look!" he exclaimed. "Bluemon has awoken." Agumon and Gabumon turned to the face middle of the lake. A giant blue sea-snake creature with large fins emerged from the centre. It flew across the lake before soaring high up into the clouds above.
"Who is he?" Agumon asked in awe. Never had he seen such a creature!
"He was once the emperor of the Digital World until Blackoremon arrived," Leomon answered.
"Blackoremon destroyed him? Gabumon asked curiously.
Leomon nodded. "Yes, then he was defeated by the digidestined." Agumon frowned. Had they defeated Blackoremon? He couldn't remember the name. Leomon continued. "It's good to have Bluemon back, but that's only half of the part of the legend."
"What do you mean Leomon?" Gabumon asked, looking at him sharply.
Leomon sighed. "His awakening will mark the return of the ancient digimon."
"You mean Blackoremon will return as well?" Agumon asked.
Leomon nodded. "Yes."
"Are you sure?"
"Only time can answer," Leomon responded.
Silence fell between the trio as they continued to look at the lake.

Tokyo, Japan
"AHHHH!" A loud scream erupted from the living room of the apartment, causing Kari to drop her cup of green tea. She ran into the kitchen only to find Max lying on the floor screaming for dear life. A rabbit-like creature with bat-like wings calmly sat on his chest nibbling on his shirt buttons. "GET IT OFF!"
"Patamon!" Kari scolded. "Didn't I tell you not to scare him?"
Patamon glanced up at Kari and brought its wings closer to its body. "I was only playing with him."
Kari sighed. Why did TK have to leave Patamon here, she thought to herself. Poor Max had almost killed himself running around the room trying to escape from Patamon. This would not have been a problem if Tai was at home, but unfortunately her brother was playing a soccer match. Poor kid, she thought.
"Finally, he's asleep!" Max exclaimed, walking into the kitchen to grab himself a drink of green tea. He sat down at the table and eyed Patamon with caution. The digimon had curled into a ball and fallen asleep. "Any idea when your brother will arrive?" Perhaps Tai knew of a way to control Patamon.
Kari shrugged. "Soon I hope."
The conversation died and the two were left with their thoughts.
