Digimon Revolt:
Summary- It has been three years since the warriors have returned from the digital world. None of the kids have fully recovered from what they have seen and are all the more freaked out when nightmares of the Digital World, both memories and unlived events invade their minds. What could these dreams mean for our favorite Legendary Warriors?
Hey, Secretiveninjathingy101 here. I decided to try my hand at writing a story. I've been into Digimon for as long as I can remember and have always longed for a season 2 of Digimon Frontier. I tried this a while back and posted the first chapter but life got in the way so I've reread and re-vamped it.
Disclaimer: I know I don't own Digimon. You know I don't own Digimon. You've just been disclaimed.
Chapter 1:
Footsteps echoed behind him, familiar ones.
He keeps running.
He hears nothing but footsteps and heavy breathing. His breathing he notes. He hits something. Maybe it's a wall or a barrier. Perhaps it's the rising fear in his chest that stops him. Either way, he's trapped.
Dead. End.
The footsteps grew closer and closer and although it is darker then dusk, wherever he is, he finds himself being able to finally see his predator amidst the absence of light.
And then, he speaks.
"I never left", he says "I will never leave you Kouichi, our lives are one, intertwined by Destiny…"
"…n-no…NO…Shut Up...Sto-OW!" and he was awake. It was just a dream, one he had been shaken out of by a very worried Kouji.
"You ok bro?"
"Yeah Kouji, it was just a bad dream" a lie, a big, huge lie, "did I wake up the others?" The gang had decided that on the first weekend of every month, they would stay over one person's house as a sort of monthly reunion of their departure from the Digital World. This month's reunion being held by the frightened boys own brother, Kouji, warrior of light.
"Are you kidding?" Kouji asked with a smirk, "you couldn't wake up Takuya with a nuclear war."
"Good. Sorry for bothering you Kouji."
"No worries brother, now try to go back to sleep, ok?" Kouji said with a smile, but as Kouji went to turn around and go back to sleep himself, Kouichi's adrenaline wore off and he felt a stinging sensation on his cheek, prompting him to call his brother's name again.
"What is it Kouichi?" asked Kouji as he turned back around.
"Why does my face hurt?"
A mischievous glint appeared in the younger boy's eyes.
"You wouldn't wake up," the younger twin said with a smirk, right before he had to duck from an oncoming flying pillow.

"Man, I slept like a log!" said Takuya digging into the pancakes Satomi hadgraciously brought up to them. "Mmmh, I love me some waffles in the morning!" The gang was currently gathered in Koujis room eating away.
"Do you have any decency?!" Zoe yelled as she hit him over the head. "Last time I checked logs don't snore loud enough to wake up Lucimon! And those aren't even waffles!"
"Geez, sorry for upsetting you," Takuya mumbled grumpily as all his friends, excluding Kouichi, began laughing at his expense.
"What's wrong Kouichi?" asked Tommy, causing the focus of the group to switch from Takuya, to their residential warrior of darkness. "You look like you've seen a phantomon."
"I'm fine Tommy," a lie, again "Just tired is all," said Kouichi, trying to cover up how spooked his dream had really made him.
"Come on bro, tell us" said Kouji, if it's what he thought it was…"What got you so freaked-out last night?"
"Fine, you win… it was Duskmon" said Kouichi bluntly, not a lie, he was tired of the charade. If he was going insane then he should at least tell someone before he's too far gone, right?
Silence.
Silence paired with looks of horror and disbelief.
Food was forgotten and the air was tense. But each of them secretly felt a little relief.
But why wouldn't they? Each one of them had been having their own nightmares, all refusing to talk to the others about them. The silence lasted for a while as each warrior became lost in thought. Kouji looked around at his friends. He noticed that the bags under their eyes, and probably his as well, matched kouichi's perfectly. They held not just tiredness, but fear and worry. Had they all been having their share of scares? He had dreamt as well, but…
"There's no need to be so secretive Kouichi", spoke Tommy, cutting off Kouji's train of thought, "I had a dream a couple of nights ago too," and with a few words, Kouji's question was answered and the others' curiosity was peeked. The gang looked on in interest, waiting for Tommy to divulge on the details. "I was running away from a bunch of pagumon, just like how me and J.P. were on that first day in the Digital World. As they were chasing me they began morphing together into something. I never made it to the end though; I woke up to my brother shaking me awake. I guess I had woken him up with all my yelling," he finished sheepishly.
"I had a rough dream too sometime last week" said Takuya. "Me and Z were in Nefertimon's library looking through some books."
"What's so bad about that?" the blond asked giving him a confused look. "Books aren't that scary Takuya," she added on with a smirk, causing the others to muffle a few laughs.
"I wasn't done," he said aggravated, giving her a pointed look, "Ranamon appeared and filled the room with water and you disappeared under the water, just like that time when our D-tectors had been stolen. I woke up before I could find out if you had survived or not."
"Oh", she replied looking to the floor as the old memory came to the front of her mind.
"Mine," spoke Kouichi breaking the silence "was simple, Duskmon was chasing me. He said he was still with me, that it was our destiny to be together. It seemed so real at the time" he finished.
"Mine was pretty traumatizing too," said J.P. "It was basically a reenactment of when I had to face that evil clone of myself except this time, none of you guys showed up to help me…I was all alone and I couldn't win..."
At this point the mood in the room had gradually sullen as those who had already shared looked on towards Zoe and Kouji, wondering what their dreams had been about and wanting to get it over with. None of them had planned on having such a sullen conversation at 10 in the morning.
"Mine was simple." Kouji said, breaking the silence, "I watched Kouichi being destroyed by Lucimon over and over again." At this, the older twin looked down at his barely touched breakfast and shuddered at the memory. It was a bad memory for all of them, but that day had affected the twins the most.
"What about you Z?" said Takuya, nudging her shoulder. "What did you dream of?"
"Uh…." the others looked at the blond, confused at her hesitance.
"C'mon Z, you should tell us, getting it off ya chest might help," the warrior of Thunder retorted.
"It was weird…" She finally began after debating on whether she should tell them or not, "mine wasn't exactly a memory…"
"Are you sure it never happened Z?" said Takuya.
"Mayby it's a suppressed memory?" JP suggested, "Our time in the Digital World definitely fits 'traumatic experience'"
"I'm pretty sure…I was stuck in a cage, and I saw a clown on the other side of the bars," she began with an unfocussed gaze, "I believe, no, I know he was a Digimon, but He only spoke in riddles…I've never seen him before." The guys shed worried looks. Zoe's eyes said it all, "I don't get it, I thought you guys were all gunna have similar dreams…that all of you might have seen someone like him too…but you didn't…"
"Is that all?" asked Kouji seeing the look of fear in his friend's eyes. They screamed that there was more to her dream than she was letting on, "he just stood there and read off riddles?"
"No," she sighed "he answered them too." Her voice shook slightly as she took a calming breath. "They were all about me, they're always about me, but every time I guess my name, he tells me I'm wrong."
"What's the answer then?" asked Tommy as they all leaned in to hear better since her voice had gradually grown quiet.
"I'd really rather not say…" Zoe said putting on a fake smile and waving her hands, she didn't want them to make a fuss over her, "I'm sure it's not that big of a deal…"
"Zoe," it was Takuya now, "what was the answer?"
"…my next target." The warrior of wind gently spoke as her smile fell, "I woke up gasping for air at about three in the morning a few days ago. Even after I woke up, it felt like I could still hear his voice as I was trying to calm myself down. I just don't get it, I know it's not a memory, I've never seen him before." The others were at a loss as to what to tell her though and just sat in silence for a bit.
"Something's definitely up though," said J.P, "something important."
"Obviously," said Kouji sarcastically, "but we don't…" unfortunately Kouji never got the chance to finish as his stepmother yelled up to him.
"Kouji, there's a girl on the phone for you!" yelled Satomi causing the previous topic to be forgotten for the time being.
"Ooooooo" Chimed J.P., Takuya, and Tommy as Zoe and Kouichi chuckled a bit.
"Kouji has a girlfriend?" questioned Takuya in mock amazement.
"Shut it Takuya, it's probably that chick I got assigned to do some stupid science project with."
"What's her name?" Takuya cooed "I bet you think she's rea- OW! ZOE!"
"What?" said the blonde while putting on an innocent face causing the resident goggle head to blush a bit.
"Hmph, and he says I have girl troubles." Kouji mumbled to the others, causing them to laugh as Zoe and Takuya struck up an argument, "and I think her name is Chiaki."
"Chiaki?!" Yelled J.P. "You mean that girl we met in the digital world traveling with Angemon?!"
"How am I supposed to know I barely talked to her in cla-" he began.
"KOUJI! It's not polite to keep a girl waiting!" Satomi yelled as more snickers began.
"You guys suck," he whispered while giving them his best stare-down. "Coming mom!"
