Digimon Tamers Crimson Royal Knights Saga Part 1
Many years ago a group of college students were working on a project that would entertain children everywhere simply known as "Digimon". However after years of work their research funds were cut short so most of this group who went by "The Monster Makers" left the project and only one was determined to finish it, and that man's nickname was Shibumi. He finished the project on his own but someone ended up buying it and made a card game and video game franchise out of it. In the end it was quite successful worldwide, however little did people know that not only did the monster makers created the Digimon but also a whole different world where these creatures thrive known as "The Digital World".
The digital world was made up of many layers with different environments like a forest, an ocean, a rocky terrain, some ruins which look very similar to an average city and the bottom level which houses the four Digimon Sovereign known as Azulongmon of the East quadrant, Zhuqiaomon of the South quadrant, Ebonwumon of the North quadrant, and Baihumon of the West quadrant. However, there is a being above them simply known as Yggdrasil who once safeguarded the digital world from any dangerous threats to it but now he has become nothing more than a being who sought to destroy any Digimon who poses a threat to him which for the most part included virus type Digimon which are immune to his influence which when corrupted can consume a Digimon and bend it to Yggdrasil's will.
There was one Virus type Digimon who was able to combat those who would pursue him, his name was simply known as Guilmon. With the power simply known as the Hazard he was able to slay any evil Digimon that would dare cross his path and throughout his journey to simply survive he fought until he evolved to even stronger forms until it would seem that he became unstoppable. He reached a powerful new mega form known to him as "Gallantmon". From then on he proved that there would be no Digimon who could stop him.
Gallantmon was merely wandering the digital world but then he seemed to notice something.
"I know you've been following me. If you're with Yggdrasil then I'm afraid mercy is out of the question." He said as two figures came out of hiding. They were described as a bipedal Lion with a bodybuilder like physique wearing only a long pair of pants holding a sword backhanded as though he were prepared to fight. The other one however looked like a timid little imp who wore gloves and had a toothy smile on his stomach as well as a bandanna on his neck. "I did not come to fight you, but merely to ask who you are and what you fight for." The lion spoke as the imp gradually came out of hiding from behind the large leg in front of him.
"I am known as Gallantmon and I don't really have a reason to fight other than to survive. I guess maybe fighting is all I've ever known." Gallantmon said as he let his guard down.
"You know if you're so big and tough you should join something big like the Royal Schmuckheads or something." The imp said in a somewhat nervous tone.
"Forgive Impmon, he was a somewhat mischief maker the day I found him. My name is Leomon and he was meaning to say the Royal Knights." Leomon said as he sheathed his sword.
Gallantmon pondered and asked "No offense but, who are they exactly?" To that Impmon face-faulted into the dirt and Leomon decided to explain. "The Royal Knights are a group of Mega level Digimon such as yourself who are all knight type Digimon." Gallantmon then asked "Any names?" Leomon then motioned for Gallantmon to take a seat which in this case was some of the rocks in the terrain they are in and Impmon also followed suit though reluctant since he had already heard this story before and he didn't feel like explaining things that he was sure that any Digimon already knew.
"Their names consist of Alphamon, Craniamon, Crusadermon, Dynasmon, Examon, Gankoomon, Leopardmon, Magnamon, Omnimon, Ulforceveedramon and last but not least their founder Imperialdramon." Gallantmon was paying close attention and used his imagination to picture what each of them looked like. "I see, since there are so many Digimon within this group I should probably see what they are truly like and perhaps join them. But first, where can I find them?" Impmon then decided to speak up since he hardly got any say between him and Leomon. "Well if you must know they are currently within the ruins section of the Digital World setting up camp there since they move around quite a bit." Gallantmon then stood and said "Thank you both for this interesting bit of information. I must be off now to see these Royal Knights." He then shook Leomon's hand as well as Impmon's before departing.
"So Leomon do you think we might have made a soon-to-be celebrity out of somebody?" Impmon asks watching Gallantmon walk away into the distance. "That has yet to be seen. But at the very least there might be some hope for the digital world." Leomon responded. "Well anyway, we should probably get moving ourselves before Yggdrasil's minions show up again." Impmon said jumping onto Leomon's shoulder before they both departed. "I wonder….. Did we do the right thing? Or have we made someone's destiny worse?" Leomon pondered as they went down their own path.
Has Impmon and Leomon lead Gallantmon on the right path? Or have they only lead him to his destruction? Find next time on the Royal Knights Saga!
