Chapter 1.

Takato woke up in his bed and saw that it was 7:23 AM on his alarm clock. He saw that Guilmon was still sleeping and Takato got dressed and put his goggles on and woke Guilmon up "Guilmon get up you sleepy head."

Guilmon woke up and rubbed his still sleepy eyes as he asked "What time is it Takato?"

"It's 7:45." Takato replied with a smile.

After Takato and Guilmon had breakfast and then Takato looked into the refrigerator for stuff for the sandwiches after Takato had remembered what today was and what was planned for today. It was the day of the picnic today.

Infact it was two weeks since the incident with Locomon. The Tamers and their Digimon were all living in peace as was the Digital World and the Real World. Everyone in Shinjuku knew that the Digimon existed so no one had to hide them or anything like that. Everyone was enjoying a wonderful time of of peace. Takato was going to have a picnic today with Jeri, Henry, Rika, Ryo, Kazu, Kenta, Suzie, Ai and Mako and their Digimon to commemorate this peaceful time.

He was getting ready for it as he was bringing the sandwiches, he was given this job since his family owns the bakery, and Guilmon was watching him feeling hungry doing so. Guilmon said "Takato may I have one of the sandwiches?"

Takato shook his head and said "No Guilmon you have to wait til we get to the park for the picnic."

Guilmon sighed sadly and said "Alright Takato."

Takato patted Guilmon on the head. Takato thought to himself "I'm sure hope that everyone will like these sandwiches." Soon Takato was done making the sandwiches and he packed them all up. Then Takato and Guilmon went outside of the bakery and as they walked they saw Rika and Renamon.

Rika smiled and called to Takato "Hey Gogglehead are you ready for the picnic."

Takato smiled and nodded. He and Rika had arranged to go to the picnic together because even though Takato was with Jeri and Rika had feelings for Ryo but didn't admit them. Takato and Rika were very close especially after what happened with the Locomon incident. They were truly the best of friends now and did alot of stuff together Jeri and Ryo didn't worry though as Jeri knew Takato loved her like she loved him and Ryo knew Rika didn't love Takato in a romantic way.

As they walked to the park Takato said to Rika "I'm really excited for this picnic I've been waiting for it for awhile."

Rika said "I think we all have Takato."

Guilmon said to Renamon "Takoto has made some delicious looking sanwiches and I bet there will be alot of other good food at the picnic as well."

Renamon smiled and said after putting her hand on Guilmon's shoulder "Don't worry Guilmon I'm sure there will be."

They had all been looking forward to this picnic since they planned it. This was the day that they had defeated the Locomon threat this picnic was to celebrate that victory, defeating D-Reaper and the day when the Digimon and their partners were reunited. Today was going to be a great day for everyone today. Soon Takato, Guilmon, Rika and Renamon arrived at the park and saw the others setting things up.

Kazu said "Hey everyone Takato, Rika, Guilmon and Renamon are here! And Takato brought the sandwiches!"

Everyone looked and saw them as Takato, Rika, Guilmon and Renamon walked over to them all. Henry had brought a variety of foods with him to the picnic and Jeri also did that as well. They had the sandwiches first and Jeri said smiling while taking a bite out of one "These sandwiches are really good Takato."

Takato smiled at her and said "Thank you I made them myself."

Kazu said "These are delicious great job dude."

He and Takato fist bumped each other. Guilmon ate many of the sandwiches happily as Terriermon also enjoyed his alot and he said "These are great right Henry?" Henry nodded in agreement as he ate his sandwich.

They all enjoyed the rest of the food and the lemonade that they all had to drink. All in all it was a really great picnic and everyone had a great time playing games and hanging out today. Calumon was having a whole lot of fun too the Tamers and their partners had alot of fun.

Soon the sun was starting to set as Kazu said "Well looks like the picnics over guys did you have fun Guardromon."

Guardromon said "Yes it was really alot of fun."

Henry said "Having this picnic today was a really great idea Takato we all really enjoyed ourselves."

Takato said "Thank you Henry I'm glad we chose such a beautiful day as today to have our picnic."

Soon they all said goodbye and started to go their separate ways home. Kazu, Kenta, Guardromon and MarineAngemon waved good bye with Kazu saying "See you all tomorrow."

As the remaining Tamers walked home Henry and Suzie went home with Terriermon and Lopmon and said goodnight to Takato, Guilmon, Jeri, Calumon, Rika, Renamon, Ryo and Mondramon. And soon as they got near Rika and Ryo's places Takato and Jeri said good night to them as Takato offered to take Jeri to her place. As they walked to Jeri's house Takato held Jeri's hand.

Jeri smiled and held Takato's hand back as she hugged him. Takato hugged Jeri back and he said "Jeri I'm very happy that we're together you're a very sweet and kindhearted person and I'm glad that we know each other and I'm glad that you and I are together."

Jeri smiled blushing slightly and she hugged Takato who hugged her back and Jeri kissed Takato and said "I love you so much Takato I'll never forget when you and the others saved me from the D-Reaper."

Takato smiled and blushed and rubbed his hand on the back of his head as Guilmon and Calumon smiled and Takato said "You were a big help Jeri we couldn't have done it without you."

Jeri said "Thank you Takato do you think..." She paused and said "Do you think Leomon would be proud of me if he was here now?" She looked down frowning and Guilmon, Calumon and Takato also frowned as well.

Takato put an arm around Jeri and said "Of course he would be proud of you Jeri you're very brave and good hearted."

Jeri kissed Takato on the cheek and said "Thank you Takato I love you so much." Takato smiled and said "I love you too."

Soon they arrive at Jeri's house and Takato said "Well here we are see you tomorrow Jeri."

Calumon followed Jeri who turned around and smiled and said "Good night Takato."

Takato and Guilmon began to walk home to the Matsuki Bakery. Meanwhile, Ryo was taking Rika back home Ryo and Rika looked away from each other as they walked and Mondramon and Renamon watched the whole thing. Mondramon whispered to Renamon "When will they admit their mutual feelings already." Renamon replied "Rika's a bit shy for that kinda thing."

Soon they reached Rika's house and Rika said to Ryo "Thanks...For taking me home." Ryo said "You're welcome Rika." Rika hugs Ryo and kisses his cheek then they both blush and Rika says "I'm sorry."

Ryo replied "It's alright good night." Rika smiled and said "Night."

Ryo and Mondramon went home as Rika and Renamon went inside of their house. Tonight was a peaceful one for everyone. Or so it seemed as while the Tamers slept a new evil was underway. This evil is one from the past that the Tamers have never faced before, this evil is something from the past. Something that has to do with the Digital World itself. And the fates of the Digital World and the Real World hang in the balance. Will the Tamers be able to beat this new threat whoever they are. A black cloud is hanging over both worlds.

This is the End of Chapter 1.
