Valkyrie Homecoming

by Kanius

A group of Valkyrie Maidens, their friends, and foes gather at Asgard. There's a party to be had to celebrate the homecoming of Brunhilde and her Valkyries. You're cordially invited to join the party. There will also be guest cameos. Also, the cast will watch an author's fic, titled Valkyrie Advent, play out as they commentate the fic's progression. Co-written with Ford1114.

1. The Asgardian Party

Disclaimer: Kanius Production Abridged and Shinnen:New Year belongs to Kanius and Ford1114. YuYuGiDigiMoon belongs to Kanius. The rest of anime, OCs, and other popular culture belong to their respectful owners.

Kanius' A/N: Yo, readers! No, this is not the Valkyrie Advent story! Sorry for getting your hopes up. That story will drop somewhere around the later part of July.

So, what is this Valkyrie Homecoming? It's the follow-up to the latest Character Corner segments from Apophis Rising and Resurrection B, if you've been paying attention to them. Yes, the Corner segments will continue past the Shinnen: New Year, but Ford1114 isn't writing them fully and won't be posting anymore on his page. I'll be continuing the Cornerverse stuff on my page.

Why is this not included in Valkyrie Advent and is a separate story entry? For starters, this Cornerverse event will expand beyond just cute little comical skits and evolve into an actual story. Yes, the comedy is still intact, but there will be a plot-related conflict and some battles to be had. Secondly, the characters will be watching Valkyrie Advents as the events play out like a movie and they will give their commentary. Not quite MST3K at all, but certain characters will be comparing and contrasting with their YYGDM counterparts.

This fic will simultaneously follow every corresponding Valkyrie Advent chapter. So, after this segment, VA Chapter 1 will follow. Then after that, VH Segment 2. And so forth in rotation. Got it?

Good. Now onto some Cornerverse shenanigans!

Ford1114's A/N: Hey readers, since you're fresh from finish reading YuYuGiDigiMoon: Apophis Rising and posting this as a double feature, these character corners are to tie-in the coming YYGDM movie fic in July entitled, Valkyrie Advent. This fanfic entitled Valkyrie Homecoming takes place a year after Shinnen:New Year. While the YYGDM fic will show the other Valkyries' awakenings, this Corner story takes place after it with a different take and these versions are observing the YYGDM-01 events. Expect some interesting scenes and of course surprising ideas.

The rainbow bridge of the Bifrost is seen in distance, and the city is as marvelous as ever. The three roosters: Gullinkambi, Vidofnir (known as Vedrfolnir), and Fjalar perch at a rooftop of a marble building, they crow out from their beaks to give a morning signal for a new day.

Asgard

(Cue Smite - Norse Lobby Theme)

Hours have pass, it is now close to noon. There is a huge gathering in a courtyard that a festival is held. Many background people/civilians/warriors with the likes of Asgardians, Elves of Alfheim, and Einherjar are seen.

A large outdoor movie screen is set up by the folks, this has something to do that the party is going to oversee what's going to happen in the YYGDM-01 dimension.

There are food/drinks serve in a banquet/buffet in tables like water, milks, hotdogs, smoked salmon, Norwegian strawberries, meatballs/fishballs, Welsh rarebit, lutefisk, krumkake, Smalahove, pinnekjott, Akevitt, Mulled wine, fruit soups, pea soups, Turkish delight, ice cream/ice cream cake, ringcake, smorrebrod, Grandiosa (pizza), and other types of Norwegian cuisine.

Four Asgardian warriors are dress up as Sif and the Warriors Three (MCU). Four female Asgardian shieldmaidens dress up as Valkyries Brunhilde, Dritte, Erste, and Zweite (Yugioh). Teenage-young adult twin sister/brother Asgardians dress as Reynn (sister) /Lann (brother) (World of Final Fantasy). Two Einherjar dress up as Odin (MCU) and the Dragon Born (Skyrim), while three more Einherjar dress as Aesir Odin/Thor/Loki (Yugioh). A female elf dresses up as Janna (League of Legends). A mother elf dresses up as Bianca with her son and daughter as the Hero's son and daughter (Dragon Quest V).

Near the doorsteps of the Valhalla hall, there are Norse figures seen watching over the party and in costumes: Odin (as Odin (Smite)), Hela (as Hel (Smite)), Thor (YYGDM) (as Thor (Smite)), Sif (as Irelia (League of Legends)), Freya (as Freya (Smite)), Frey (as Shulk (Xenoblade)), Frigg (as Frigga (MCU)), Heimdall (as Dewgong) vigilantly observes, Vidarr (as Sirius Black), Vali (as Remus Lupin), Tyr (as Tyr (Smite)) crossing his arms, Baldur (as Jareth (Labyrinth)), and Skuld's Father (as The Chariot Master (Kid Icarus)).

Freya smiles with pride, "This is a job well done for us Aesir to see this happen."

Frey ponders, "Thou are always feel giddy, sister?"

Freya feels quipped, "Who said I am, you seem to be gullible of their reunion with us."

"I am sure my husband has prepared this well, which I'll be happy to see my adopted daughter, Brunhilde." Frigg stated.

Thor (YYGDM) is drinking water and bites into salmon, "Mmm. Allfather, isn't she supposed to come?"

"Aye, my son. Brunhilde and her friends should be here at anytime." Odin answered.

"I look forward to seeing Brunhilde and her Valkyrie team." Sif said.

Hela then states, "My daughter, Skuld, should be accompanying them, too."

Skuld's Father adds along, "Yes, I can't wait to see our daughter, Hela."

Thor (YYGDM) then senses, "Father, I think I see them!"

"Aye, that's them." Odin nodded.

(End theme)

Everyone present turns and watches the gates open.

(Cue Machinimasound - Queen of the Night)

The first guests to appear are Brunhilde/Kotori Ayami the Fire+Ice Valkyrie riding on her steed Grani. Seadramon is seen floating beside the Valkyrie and her steed. Brunhilde comes out dressed as Marvel's Valkyrie complete with long braided pigtails. Seadramon is dressed up as Leviathan from Final Fantasy. Grani comes out funnily enough dressed as Grani from Digimon Tamers.

Brunhilde looks around in awe, "Holy crap, this is really Valhalla?!"

"My, aren't we popular?" Grani remarked.

"Well, you are the star of tonight's event Kotori." Seadramon added to his Tamer.

Brunhilde blushes "Man, I don't know how to feel." She then fakes a smile and waves to the Asgardians.

Odin, Thor, Freya, Sif, Hela, and the others stand greeting Brunhilde's presence.

"Looks like she received our letter, Allfather." Thor (YYGDM) said about Asgard sending that invitation.

"Indeed, it's good she did." Odin stated.

Sif smiles and waves to Brunhilde, "Good to see you again, my former student."

Skuld's Father then wonders, "Isn't she now known as Ayami Kotori in her reincarnated life?"

"Aye, she's reincarnated into a young Japanese woman." Thor (YYGDM) answered.

"Look at this, Odin. Slepinir is coming." Hela pointed at Odin's former horse.

Thor (YYGDM) then adds, "And look who's riding him."

"Aye, it's Queen Serenity's daughter." Odin witnessed.

Sailor Moon, dressed as Lenneth from Valkyrie Profile, comes out riding on Sleipnir. The legendary eight-legged stallion comes out dressed MCU's Sleipnir.

Moon greets the Asgardians and guests, "Wow, they really like us."

Sleipnir sees Odin, "Lord Odin, it's good to see you again."

Moon looks up at Odin, "That's Odin? Wow, he almost looks like Santa Claus with that white beard!"

Sleipnir sweatdrops, "Oh c'mon really, Usagi?"

"You must be happy to be home, Sleipnir." Moon smiled.

Sleipnir nods, "Aye, it's good to be home."

Next, the Digimon Tamers (Tsubasa Himura, Sagara Phillipe, Matsuda Takato, Nonaka Rika, Wong Henry, Katou Jeri, & Shioda Kazu) arrive dressed in a Seraph of the End group cosplay. Himura comes out dressed as Yuichiro Hyakuya. Phillipe cosplays as Mikaela Hyakuya. Takato is dressed as Yoichi Saotome. Rika comes out dressed as Shinoa Hiragi. Henry is dressed Guren Ichinose. Jeri cosplays as Mitsuba Sangu. Kazu comes out dressed as Shiho Kimizuki. Guilmon, Renamon, Terriermon, Inumon, Jaguarmon, Felinismon, Leomon, and Guardromon are also seen with their Tamers.

"Man, are we really in the halls of Valhalla?" Takato grinned.

Jeri said in awe, "This place is beautiful."

Renamon senses with her scent, "I can definitely feel divine power emanating from this place."

"Indeed, we're in the presence of gods and goddesses." Inumon commented.

Guilmon cries out, "Hey, Takato! Who are all these people?"

Takato chuckles, "Would you believe it if I told you they're gods?"

"Like the Sovereigns?" Guilmon looks up at Odin, Thor, and the other Asgardians, "Hey, it's Santa Claus and the Hammer Guy!"

The Tamers nearly facefault over Guilmon's reaction to the Norse gods.

"That ain't Santa, that's Odin!" Kazu corrected the red dinosaur.

"Yeah, he's the divine ruler of Asgard!" Takato exclaimed.

Guilmon surely comments, "But, he looks like Santa."

"Oh, Guilmon!" Takato laughs.

Rika then said to Himura, "Hey, since you're the reincarnation of Siegfried, do you feel any connection to this place like Kotori?"

Himura nods, "Kinda. This place feels so familiar to me."

Phillipe smiles to Himura, "It must be nostalgic for you and my cousin Kotori."

"It certainly is." Himura said to his best friend.

Terriermon gazes around the majestic halls, "Man, this place is huge!"

"To even think we're walking down the same halls that Odin, Thor, and the Norse deities use." Henry stated.

Brunhilde overhears them, I know. It feels great, don't it?!" She then gets off Grani.

Tsubasa Yui & DarkGabumon, Inuki Aoshi, Kimura Kouichi, and Sinon (Sword Art Online) arrive after the Tamers. Yui comes dressed as Ahri from League of Legends. Aoshi cosplays as Ame from Wolf Children. Kouichi cosplays as Prince Caspian from Narnia. Sinon cosplays as Judy Hopps from Zootopia.

"Wow, this place is so gorgeous!" Yui cried out.

Aoshi then said, "My father wasn't kidding when he said Valhalla is one of a kind."

"I'm surprised your sister, Hina, isn't here." Yui stated to her boyfriend.

Aoshi then answers, "She might be here later."

Kouichi and Sinon approach Brunhilde

"This is your night, Brunhilde. We'll all celebrate for you." Kouichi gives his compliment.

Brunhilde grins, "No way, this is our party." She pinches and kisses Kouichi's cheek, "And I know I'll have my dance with you."

"Sure thing." Kouichi replied at the Valkyrie.

Brunhilde turns to Sinon, "And I'm glad you came, too, Sinon."

Sinon smiles and nods, "Me, too, Kotori. I appreciate the invite."

(Cue Celtic Music - A Celtic Tale – Adrian von Ziegler)

As soon as Brunhilde and her group arrive, they have gathered to the area where the big theater screen is shown alongside the food table. The background civilians cheer in joy at the sight of the Valkyrie maiden's homecoming to Asgard, just like a certain web slinger coming back home. The four Valkyrie (Yugioh) cosplayers run to approach Brunhilde.

Brunhilde shieldmaiden cosplayer questions the Valkyrie, "Hey, you're the real deal coming back?"

"We've heard so much about you." Erste shieldmaiden cosplayer gives her response.

Brunhilde smirks, "Yep I'm sure am. Your costumes based on the Yugioh versions of me and her team looks nice!"

"Why thank you!" Zweite shieldmaiden cosplayer smiled.

Dritte shieldmaiden cosplayer remarks, "Besides, we four have honor your presence."

Seadramon speaks to Brunhilde, "Guess you have some admirers in this realm."

"It's all in a day's work of being a hero. Hell, we even kick ass of these two hybrid dinos back in Shinjuku park!" Brunhilde grinned and recalled a minor past event.

Guilmon points at the food table, "Look Takato, there's food!"

"No kidding, Guilmon, there's even pizza!" Takato added.

"Hey guys, there's some kind of outdoor movie screen!" Kazu shows his friends of that much to their amazement.

Takato's eyes widened, "Whoa."

"What are they setting up for?" Sinon questioned.

Rika then begins to ponder, "Wait a minute, I think their showing the party of something big."

"Of what?" Phillipe asked.

Himura answers the question, "Maybe it has something to do with what's happening in dimension YYGDM-01, our and Kotori's counterparts are about to begin their search of the other Valkyrie maidens."

Brunhilde overhears them and responds, "Really?! Guess it's somethin' of a tie-in to my past."

"I heard that, this really takes us back two years ago when we had our search for your team and you know." Takato recalled.

Rika then asked her boyfriend, "Don't you remember about Jotunheim using you, Henry, and Himura?"

Takato sweatdrop and scratches the back of his head, "Oh right."

"Man, how can I forget that?!" Terriermon cried out.

"Alongside my first encounter with Mist. I bet my YYGDM-01 counterpart is going to have my story experiences." Brunhilde realized.

Grani corrected Brunhilde, "Only with major changes and differences in that dimension."

Himura then said, "Yeah, now that you mentioned it, I wonder what the author is going to show us?"

Yes, no wonder why Brunhilde is going to be the star of this event, the premiere of the author's movie fic.

Switching back to the Valhalla hall, the Aesir and Vanir gods are ready to approach their guests.

"It's time, Allfather." Frey stated.

"Wait till my ancestral daughter, Gondul, comes." Tyr said about his family relation with one of the Valkyries.

"Yes you two, let's make a formal greeting to them." Odin said to the two Norse gods.

Heimdall is walking away, "I'll be on watch of the Bifrost."

"It will be a toast to begin the movie! Ho!" Freya gives her valiant battle cry.

Standing beside Freya are her two cats, Bygul and Trjegul, who they both meow.

Frey ponders of his sibling's behavior, "Aren't you happy, sister?"

"Indeed I am." Freya nodded at her brother.

With that said, chapter one of YuYuGiDigiMoon the Movie: Valkyrie Advent is about to start on the movie screen.

Ford1114's A/N: We are off to a good start. Basically, Asgard has set up a party for Kotori and her friends to get invited and learning about Norse backgrounds. The main event goes to an outdoor movie screen that shows the audience of Valkyrie Advent in YYGDM-01, showing that both stories coincide each other simultaneously.

2016 is the 15th anniversaries of LOTR/Harry Potter movie franchises (including the coming Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them movie, the Cursed Child book/play, and paying respects to Alan Rickman), the 5th anniversaries of Thor/Game of Thrones, and hearing that the Narnia movies will continue.

This year is also the 15th anniversary of Digimon Tamers. I remember first seeing it in third grade at Foxkids and it was one of the most memorable and imaginative moments in my childhood. It inspired me to look at fanworks and one of the reasons how I first got into K's D-Fusion series (this is inspired from Tamers when he saw a clip of Gallantmon) with the original D-Reaper saga in middle school (and then YYGDM). Back in the original D-Fusion fics (DF-616 Prime), Takato first appeared as a major/main (and AU) character representing a next generation, he's also the one that killed the D-Reaper with the Cosmic Terra Force to signify it. This transitioned to YuYuGiDigiMoon where Takato (and the other Tamers) are now actual main characters since their canon stories ended (alongside Sailor Moon/YYH/Yu-Gi-Oh since they first made cameos in original D-Fusion before their transition), having more exclusive power-ups unlike the original anime/original D-Fusion, Takato being the main perspective character of experiencing different relationships (such as with Sailor Mars) and hardships, and having much more adventures/crossovers throughout such as the Season Trilogy, D-Reaper's Fury, Cornerverse (even though it's a different Takato), a shocking moment in Apophis Rising, their major roles in VA, and wonder what their roles will be in Defiants (going from five years (2011 – 2016) not counting epilogue years since they first appeared in original D-Fusion, to nine years (2003 – 2012)).

That above, can relate the West Coasters and Valkyries (except Kotori) appear late in YYGDM is similar to Tamers/Legendary Warriors' moments in original D-Fusion. Me and K can hope that the Metas and Valkyries will have main roles in K's novels all the way throughout, one can wonder.

And look at that, Freya gives the first and last lines of this first chapter.

Kanius' A/N: There you go. Segment 1 kicks VH off and VA chapter 1 is about toe start in their universe. Let's see how the Valkyrie Maidens react to their YYGDM counterparts.

I have nothing else to offer since Ford said it all. Let this be a nice appetizer before Valkyrie Advent is released this month!

See you in Valkyrie Advent and the next Valkyrie Homecoming segment!
