**Author's Note - Hello, before we begin I just wanted to give a some background info regarding this story.
This idea has been floating around my head on & off in multiple incarnation ever since I Completed the 3rd Season of Digimon, "Digimon Tamers". I loved how Tamers was a bit darker and more Mature compared to Adventure and Adventure 02, mostly because I was a teenager at the time.
Anyway, I really liked the idea of Modifying Digimon to help them during battle and over the years came up with the idea of Hacking a Digimon's Core in order to access data stored within it for extra Abilities and Skills.
Please be aware, that this is my attempt at creating an Original Story set within the Digimon franchise. It is not set in any one Story from the Franchise, even though it has been inspired and influenced by several entries in the franchise. Mainly the Anime Season's "Tamers", "Savers/Data Squad" & "Xros Wars/Fusion." As well as the Games belonging to the "Digimon World" series & "Cyber Sleuth."
I may not have watched/played the entirety of these entries in the franchise, but elements of them have none the less helped me to create this story, along with discussing these ideas with some friends and requesting their opinions.
I will attempt to work on this FanFic every Sunday, but no promises on when each chapter will be uploaded.
This prologue is being uploaded to prove I am committed to writing again, as i have went back & forth multiple times for both FanFics & attempts at Original works since I was a 5th year at my Local Secondary School. I'm hoping to set a Target of no more than 2 months between each chapter upload, but Various factors such as Life, & Writer's Block, may prevent that.
Prologue
There exists many worlds in the infinite expanse of the multiverse. Almost all of which never have residents cross between their respective worlds… but there exists two worlds that continually overlap with each other in multiple versions of reality. The "Physical" world, where Humans are the Dominate Species and the Digital World. A world that exists on a separate layer of the Human's world, and is composed entirely of data. Birthed by Human Knowledge, this world holds a species unlike any other.
Digital Monsters… or "Digimon" for short. These creatures take on many shapes and forms and are able to transform into stronger beings under various circumstances, but these are not mindless beasts. They are sentient like Humans, and as they are composed of Data, or Information, their intelligence matches and exceeds that of humanity.
Digimon and humans have proven themselves time & again to be able to work together, and become friends despite all their differences. This Tale, shall be one such example…
A tale of how humans and Digimon, band together to confront and overcome Threats & Obstacles that threaten their worlds. Regardless of whose world the problem originated from.
I welcome you to a reality where Humans and Digimon have co-existed for decades, and humans who have Digimon partners have discovered a powerful and useful skill, one that was extremely rare for a Digimon to be able to do on their own.
Hacking, or Modifying a Digimon's Core, to grant access to powers and abilities the Digimon had obtained whilst absorbing the data of other Digimon. Given freely or upon a Digimon's death, or by absorbing data from extremely rare objects and materials found in the Digital World.
The World of the Digimon Hackers.
