Chapter 1

He stares about what's around him. He finds himself at an amusement park. He then blinks as he stares at the Ferris wheel. He gets lost in his thoughts and then he snaps his head around when he hears, "Hi, I'm TK. What's your name?" He turns and finds himself staring into the face of his younger self. The child is clad in green cloths with a green hat to top it off.

He blinks at his younger self and then just sighs. He wonders where his partner is, for he really didn't know what to make of this. He turns to search for Tokomon or DemiDevimon. He then hears the younger version of him say, "What are you doing here?" He sighs and turns to look at the eight year old. He thinks carefully on what to say and then answers, "My name's Jager. As to why I'm here, … that's a secret!" TK's jaw drops and he smiles a bit at this.

His is a good five feet and three quarters in height. His hair is now white and one of his eyes is silvery blue, right eye, and the left is green. He looks to be fourteen years old and considering the fact that he's died once before, he's surprisingly healthy. His skin color is much darker then his younger counter part and he also has some armour on his left shoulder and on his right arm. His pack rests easily on his back; he believes that his computer and discs are alright. He did pack his cloths around both his computer and discs to give them padding. Currently he's wearing a blue T-shirt with the symbol for wolf on it in orange print. On the back of his shirt is a picture of a white wolf. Around his neck is the tag and crest of Life Cycles and in his blue jeans pock it his Digivice.

TK recovers and says, "How come your eye's are mismatched?" He chuckles at this and then answers, "That's also a secret, kid. Know what?" TK answers, "What?" He kneels down and looks his younger self in the eyes and then says, "You want to help me find my partner?" TK blinks and puts on his thinking face. He can't believe he used to be this cute. But then, that's in the past. Soon TK looks kind of sad and answers, "I promise Matt to stay here." He ran a hand through his white hair. He remembers how much time he spent here, waiting for his big bro to come back. He stands up and looks towards the pier.

An idea strikes him and he turns to look at TK and says, "Would you think Matt would what you to stay here, alone? Or do you think he might be relieved that you're with someone?" He watches as TK again thinks about this and he turns to see Tokomon coming towards them.

"Who are you?" Tokomon asks him. He then answers, "I'm Jager. I'm kind of looking for my partner." Tokomon looks at him and then turns to look at TK. TK then asks, "Have you seen Tai and Agumon?" He lies, saying, "Who are they?" TK then begins to tell him about what Tai looks like and then about Agumon. He remembers how despite he became just waiting for his brother. He remembers that Matt and Gabumon couldn't come back because they had been helping Joe and Gomamon at that dinner.

"I don't know if I should. I really don't know you." TK then says suddenly. He then says, "I kind of need your help, you know? There's Digimon out there that would attack me. I don't have my partner to protect me and I'm sure that your friends would understand." He doesn't mention Matt or hint at the fact that his younger version has a brother, for he doubts that Tokomon will be easy to fool about how he knows that, in fact, he knows that Tokomon wouldn't be fooled.

"One more day, then we can go." TK says. He nods his head and could see that his younger self was pleased to have someone with him. Soon TK grabs his hand and leads him off to the roller coaster. He just follows his younger self and hopes that Revmon will understand.

(------------------------------------Revmon----------------------------------------)

He just stares at the desert around him and wonders just where his partner is. He sighs and begins to head towards the amusement park, for if memory serves him right, that's where he'll find his younger self and TK's younger self.

He looks different then what he once did, it's mostly due to the simple fact that TK's changed too. He's no longer a Patamon, but a new type of Digimon called Revmon. He looks to be a Gazimon but he's black fur with green stripes on his back and arms. His tail is much longer then a Gazimon's tail. He's eyes are blue and his claws are grey in colour. His ears are more like Gatomon's ears. He also has something called an X-antibody now in his programming data. His attacks are Air Slasher and Sonic Breaker. His Sonic Breaker lets him tackle Digimon at high speeds, it also let's him speed up to dodge as well as attack.

He travels for most of the night and soon finds the amusement park that he remembers. Soon he finds hears a something behind him and turns to find an angry Tokomon. "You seen a tall, white haired human around here?" He asks his other self. Tokomon blinks at him and then nods, "You're Jager's partner?" He grins at the name and nods his head. "Yip, I'm Revmon. Could you take me to him?" He tells his other self.

Tokomon sizes him up and then turns to lead him away. He follows by walking around on his hind legs. He grins as he looks at the way TK and, well, Jager seem to interact. Jager turns and nods at him. He walks over with his other self.

"So, this is where you are! Couldn't you look for me before goofing off?" He says, pretending to be angry with … Jager. Jager just smiles slightly and before Jager says anything, TK says, "It's my fault! I wanted to wait one more day for my older brother to show!" He blinks and then just laughs a bit. "I was pretending! I'm sorry! It's just that I was worried about him." He tells TK. TK blinks in surprise and then smiles and says, "Ok then! Now what?" He looks to Jager and his partner just shrugs a bit.

"You want to take a look around for any of your friends?" Jager suggests. TK nods his head and Tokomon says, "I guess it wouldn't hurt." He then asks, "How long have you two been here?"

(--------------------------------------Jager------------------------------------------)

TK answers that they have been here for a good week. Which means that soon DemiDevimon will be appearing. He sighs in relief that Revmon was again by his side. He how didn't have to worry about revealing his secret if they get attacked.

The fact that his appearance has change was due to the fact that humans just weren't meant to be resurrected when they die in the Digital World. But that's what happened with him though. It affected him and his partner a great deal, transforming Patamon into Revmon with some alien program called X-antibody. This antibody speeds up Revmon's healing process and increase his abilities.

He watches as TK and Tokomon race each other between the trees surrounding the amusement park. He notices a patch of mushrooms and nods to Revmon just leave it alone. He could see that Revmon didn't want to, but then just sighs in agreement.

They stop for lunch and soon DemiDevimon appears. He glances at the rookie and then continues on like he didn't see the evil rookie. He could tell that Revmon tenses up. Either his younger self or Tokomon have notice the blue Digimon.

He can tell that DemiDevimon was now not to sure at what to make of him and Revmon. Then one glare from Revmon is enough to send that rookie away. He tries not to grin as the blue rookie flies away.

For the rest of the day, Revmon looks quite happy. But then TK looks quite happy to have someone new to talk to and to be with. He could tell that TK also felt safe with him. He bets that if asked about it, TK would just shrug it off. He was like that as a kid; it's just what made him what he is today.

He watches as his younger self meets up with Tai and Agumon. Revmon and Tokomon went off to find food. He leans on a tree, out of sight and just watches this reunion. He wonders just what Tai will react to him.

"And then Jager appeared and he wanted me to help him look for his partner, Revmon. But the next morning, Revmon arrived at the park and it was great!" His other self tells Tai. He watches as Tai tenses up and asks, "Jager? Revmon? Who are they?" TK then looks around and then motions for him to come forward. He was kind of shocked that TK could tell that he was even there.

He walks forward and smiles a bit as Tai looks surprise at his appearance. "I'm Jager. Nice to meet you Tai, and you too, Agumon." He says. Tai's jaw opens and closes but no sound came out. Even Agumon just stares at him, then Tai recovers and asks, "Is something wrong with your eyes?" He blinks and then says, "It's natural." Tai just says "O."

He knows that he looks odd, but it's just how he got resurrected to look as. Humans were not resurrected like Digimon and considering that simple fact, he's lucky to be human. He could have been reformatted as a Digimon…

He doesn't want to think about it and then says, "I know I look… abnormal, but it's all natural though. I'm fourteen years old and I also have the tag and crest for Life Cycles." He holds out his tag and crest for Tai to inspect. Tai looks at it and then compares it to his own and then hands it back. He then puts it back on, and says, "I guess it's time to look for your friends, huh?" Tai then nods his head while scratching the back of his head. He sighs and turns to see Revmon and Tokomon coming towards them.

Soon they all ate and then Tai's Digivice beeps and Tai then holds it up. "I got a lock on two more Digivices." Tai says. He notices that Revmon snorts a bit and they then go off to find a boat to use. He checks his laptop before they leave. He finds that everything is fine and then repacks up his computer. He then sits by Tai and begins to petal to move the swan shaped boat.

(--------------------------------------Revmon--------------------------------------)

He watches TK sleep by his right side, clutching Tokomon. Both were fast asleep. Between the motions of the swan boat and being full, they couldn't keep their eyes open. Not that Agumon could either. He turns his head a bit to look at Tai's partner. He sees that Agumon was on the tail of the swan and in an odd position. He doesn't envy Agumon when the other rookie wakes.

He thinks about what's to come. He knows that they'll have to change something, for they wouldn't be about to help themselves. Jager and him will have to talk about that, though.

He then moves and hangs his head into the window. "Getting closer?" He asks. Tai looks over and looks surprised at seeing him. He could see his partner smile slightly. "Just a few more clicks." Tai says after taking a look at his Digivice. He still finds it odd, looking at the older models. He nods and says, "I'll keep an eye on TK and Tokomon then." He pulls himself back up onto the roof.

He sits up and moves TK a bit, to make sure that if TK falls off the roof that he'll be know. He moves his tail around TK's waist. He then lies down on his stomach. He remembers that as a kid, Jager couldn't swim too well. That's one thing that he wants to change as soon as possible, for as Patamon, he remembers how useless he felt when it looks like his partner was drowning.
