Chapter 1: The End of Peace
Two years after the defeat of MaloMyotismon life has been peaceful for all of the digidestined. The original children are in high school close to their graduation. The second generation are in middle school. The kids all spend their time as pretty much normal kids. Despite still being in contact with their digimon partners the digital world has not needed their help. A lot has changed in their personal live however. Mimi was able to move back to Japan and Ken moved to live in the same area as the rest of them. Romance was also starting amongst the children. Matt and Sora's relationship grew stronger, and Yolei started dating Ken. TK and Kari were not officially together, but everybody knew they were, everybody except Davis that is. Most surprising of all was that Joe and Mimi had somehow ended up together. The peaceful life of the digidestined would soon come to an end as the digital world would call on them for help once again.
This world however is not the only world to contain Digital Monsters. There is another world where the adventures of these children is only a television show. In that world one year has passed since it was invade by digimon and the menacing D-Reaper program that found humans had evolved to much and needed to be erased. Despite thinking that they would never see their digimon after the D-Reaper was defeated the young tamers did indeed see their partners again thanks to a small digital portal found by Takato. These two worlds would soon be connected and the balance of both worlds would be put in danger all because of one boy. His name was Ryo Akiyama.
[Adventure Universe]
Ken Ichijouji woke up and checked his calendar. Today was the anniversary of the day that the Digimon Emperor was defeated. For the other digidestined it was a day to celebrate. They would have a picnic and enjoy themselves in the digital world. Ken didn't want to go but the others along with his partner Wormmon had managed to convince him to go with them. He just didn't feel like celebrating. Today was a reminder of who he once was and what he had done. He had managed to accept his actions and move on, but in the back of his mind he still remembered all the pain he had caused and felt he was never really punished for anything he did.
"What's wrong Ken? You seem a little sad." Ken's partner Wormmon asked him as he noticed that something was bothering him. Wormmon worried about Ken a lot and made sure to talk to him whenever he thinks that there is something wrong or something bothering him.
Ken looked at Wormmon and smiled. He could always tell when something was on his mind. "I guess I'm just a little worried about today. It was nice of the others to invite me to the celebration, but we're basically celebrating my past actions. I'd rather forget them them celebrate." Ken told Wormmon. He then started getting ready for the picnic.
"Don't think of it like that Ken. Think of it as us celebrating you joining the other digidestined. Now come on if we're late then the others might get worried." Ken picked up Wormmon, his D3 and his D-Terminal then headed off to Izzy's house. Since school was closed they had to use Izzy's computer to enter the digital world. He was the last to arrive and everybody was waiting on him.
"It's about time you got here Ken we've been waiting on you." Davis told him. Despite the time that had passed most of the digidestined were the same kids they were two years ago. Thier close bond had also made it easy for them to be very direct with one another.
"Oh be quite Davis you barley got here like five minutes ago. Besides Ken lives the farthest away from Izzy's house." Yolei said to Davis. Even though she and Ken had barley been dating for a few moths she cared for him and was quick to defend him. That and she never was one to keep quite. Especially when Davis was the one she was arguing with.
"It's ok Yolei. Davis is right I overslept a little. Let's get going I've kept you all waiting long enough." Ken said to the group. Ken knew how long arguments between his best friend and his girlfriend could go on for. The digidestined opened the digital gate and entered the digital world. When they arrived however they were greeted with a savage sight. Villages were destroyed, forests were cut down, but what worried them the most was the abundance of Control Spires around the area.
"What happened here. I thought all the Control Spires were destroyed. Even if we missed a few there shouldn't be this many in one area." Kari said as she observed the destruction. Their digimon partners were all with them so everybody was lost as to what had happened.
"All right I say we spilt and try to get some answers as to what is going on here. Davis, Ken, and Yolei your group one. Izzy, Joe, and Mimi your group two. Cody, Tk, and Kari your group three. Matt and Sora your with me. We will all meet back here in one hour with whatever information we can find." Tai said the to the group immediately taking charge when they realized something was very wrong in the digital of the others argued with him and they split up as he had said.
"Tai why did you split up the groups the way that you did?" Sora asked Tai wondering why he had chosen the groups so specifically. Usually they would split up with their DNA digivolution partner, but since the power of DNA digivolution was no longer needed they split into random groups.
"I wanted us to be split into groups with two boys and one girl. I was even nice enough to put together any two people who were dating. That could lead to an awkward third wheel but we are good enough friends that we can avoid that." Tai told them confident that the groups he had chosen would work well. The first group however was having problems working together.
"I told you Davis there wouldn't be any digimon left in that village. It's completely destroyed." Yolei said to Davis annoyed he wouldn't listen to her.
"Yeah we'll it doesn't hurt to check besides. What if we found an injured digimon. We can't miss any area." Davis said arguing back to Yolei.
"But we don't have enough time to search everywhere. Ken tell Davis we need to hurry." Yolei said bringing Ken into their argument.
"No we need to make sure we don't miss anything. Ken tell Yolei that we need to check again." Davis said trying to get Ken to side with him. The two kept arguing back and forth until Ken had gotten tired of it.
"Stop arguing you two. Davis your my best friend, and Yolei your my girlfriend. Your going to be around each other a lot and you need to stop arguing with each other. Now while Davis is right about making sure we don't miss anything Yolei is right about us not having that much time, which we've wasted by standing here arguing about what to do. Come on let's see of Wormmon, Veemon, and Hawkmon have found anything." Ken said to them. They then decided he was right and headed off to find their digimon parters. There they found them tending to a wounded Numemon.
"Davis, Ken, Yolei I'm glad your here we found this injured Numemon and were about to ask him if he saw what had happened." Wormmon said to them as he noticed they had arrived. As soon as they got near the Numemon however it started freaking out.
"No Stop Please Stay Away From Me! Youve already destroyed everything and taken away everybody I care about why cant you leave me alone!" It screamed. Everybody stepped back a little and it calmed down.
"Don't worry we won't hurt you. Can you tell us what happened?" Yolei asked as it had calmed down. She tried her best to make sure that the Numemon would be able to explain the situation to them.
"Your lying. You say you won't hurt me but isnt he the Digimon Emperor?" The Numemon asked as it saw Ken. This statement hurt Ken. He stepped far away as to show the Numemon he meant no harm.
"Hey I don't know if you've heard but Ken hasn't been the Digimon Emperor for years. He helped save the Digital World from MaloMyotismon you know." Davis told the Numemon defending his friend.
"Your lying. Last night the Digimon Emperor attacked. He captured all my friends and destroyed our village and forests after rebuilding all these Control Spires. I know that it was your friend over there. He is the Digimon Emperor and he caused all of this." The Numemon said. This caught all of them by surprise. Ken fell down causing Davis and Yolei to run over to his side. The Numemon use this as a distraction to run away scared of the Digimon Emperor.
"I didn't do it. I'm not the Digimon Emperor anymore. I'm good. I help people. It wasn't me." Ken mumbled to himself. He was very scared that he had indeed done it. That he was once again the Digimon Emperor and that he had caused all the destruction. Davis and Yolei had picked him up one on each arm and together they headed back to where they had agreed to meet the others worried that they had received the same information about what caused the desteuctuon.
[Tamers Universe]
In the Tamers world things have been peaceful since the defeat of the D-Reaper. The Tamers went back to being normal kids for the most part. Takato was able to find a digital portal and they were ableto reunite with their digimon partners, but they lived thier lifes as normal kids. Most of the time the kids would get together and hang out even without their digimon leaving them to be with each other. Yamaki and Hypnos would still keep an eye on the kids, but that was mostly just to make sure that they were safe and to make sure that the digimon were stable enough to live in the human world. Yamaki had really grown to care for the Tamers.
Right now Takato was running to the park. He had agreed to meet up with Jeri, Kazu, and Kenta. On his way there he noticed Rika standing alone outside the movie theaters.
"Hey Rika what are you doing here by yourself?" Takato asked wondering what she was doing. Usually Rika was with Renamon or with Ryo. She was hardley ever by herself.
"I was supposed to go see a movie with Ryo but that jerk stood me up. Cyberdramon better start looking for a new partner because after I'm done with Ryo he won't be able to biomerge or Digimodify ever again." Rika said angry that Ryo had done this to her.
"Well I'm heading to the park. You want to come with so your not alone?" Takato asked her knowing that it was bad to make Rika angry.
"Sure why not I mean even if Ryo showed up now I wouldn't bother seeing the movie with him. I swear he thinks he can do whatever he wants." Rika followed Takato and they headed to the park together. There they met up with Jeri, Kazu, and Kenta.
"Hey Takato I didn't know that Rika was coming too. Is Henry coming? If he is then we should have invited our digimon to hang out with us." Kazu said to Takato as he noticed Rika next to him.
"Huh oh no. Rika's just here because she and Ryo had a date but he stood her up and I didn't want her to be alone." Takato told Kazu. Rika blushed very strongly and punched Takato in the arm.
"It wasn't a date Gogglehead. Ryo beat me in a card match and said the loser had to take the winner to the movies. Then he decides not to show up. I don't know why he bothered making that deal if he was going to waste my time." Rika explained to them making sure they knew it wasn't a real date.
"Rika I hate to interrupt your story but I saw Ryo this morning. I wonder why he wouldnt tell you what he was doing? Anyway he told me not to tell anybody but he was going to go see Impmon. Maybe Ai and Mako know where he is now." Jeri told Rika. She told Ryo she wouldn't say anything but decided Rika deserved to know.
"Thanks Jeri. Now if you will excuse me I need to go find Ryo and show him what happens when somebody wastes my time." Rika told them. She then left to Ai and Mako's house. They had moved and now lived close to the other Tamers. When she arrived she found Ai and Mako with Impmon.
"Hi Rika did you need something." Ai asked her. During the year after the D-Reaper was defeated all of the tamers became really close, even the youngest two Ai and Mako, who were now five.
"Yeah Ryo was supposed to meet me at the movies but he didn't. Jeri said that Ryo told her he needed to talk to Impmon so I was wondering if any of you knew where I could find him." Rika told them hoping they could lead her to Ryo.
"Yeah Ryo was here this morning. Impmon please go take Rika to where you took Ryo so they can get back to their date." Ai told Impmon. Rika was going to tell her it wasn't a date but decided she was probably to young to understand. Impmon took Rika to the old cave where Takato used to hide Guilmon and where they found the digital portal that let their digimon come back after the D-Reaper was defeated.
"Why are we at this old place?" Rika asked Impmon curious as to why Ryo would want to go there.
"I dunno he asked me take him to the closest digital portal. I brought him here. Something feels kinda funny about this portal tho. I don think it leads to the digital world. Which is pretty weird considering that this is the portal that let us come back to the human world." Impmon told Rika.
"Well Ryo had better have a good reason for standing me up. My D-Power is going crazy from the energy that is coming out of here. If this portal doesnt lead to the digital world then i think that the others had better know about it." Rika told Impmon. They then decide to head back to Ai and Mako's house along with calling together all the other Tamers and their digimon partner's to have a meeting about Ryo's disappearance and the mysterious portal.
[Adventure Universe]
"So I'm finally back home. Never thought I would be back here again. I sure hope Rika can forgive me for not advising her that our date had to he postponed. Come on Cyberdramon we've got work to do." Ryo says to his partner as they arrive at their desired destination.
A/N: Alright so im very hyped up for the new digimon adventure tri. So much so that ive been rewatching all of digimon, and finally watching Xros Wars and Fusion. While rewatching Tamers i remembered that Ryo was originality from the Adventure Universe and decided to try and write a story about the two worlds connecting due to him. I'm going to try and finish this story before tri comes out. Also it should be obvious but this story is not going to be canon to tri, unless i can see the future and know the exact story of tri. As i stated this story is two years after the defeat of MaloMyotismon, and one year after the defeat of the D-Reaper. Ages are a little confusing in Digimon so these are the ages that ive chosen for this story based on a combination of time passed between seasons, age in Japanese, and age in Dub.
Joe-17
Other Adventure 1 Kids-16
Izzy-15
Yolei-14
Other Adventure 02 Kids (Also TK & Kari)-13
Cody-10
Ryo-15
Rika-14
Other Tamers-13
Suzie-8
Ai and Mako-5
Just so you know im not going to follow the epilogue from 02 100%. I'm doing more like 85%.I'm not sure if i want to use the movies and the audio dramas or not. Also in terms of parings i am not going to include that much romance since Digimon never focused on romance. Ive already established Matt and Sora as a couple along with Ken and Yolei. The only couple I've mentioned that isnt canon is Mimi and Joe, and they wont have a large part. Other pairings that might be in the story are TK and Kari, Ryo and Rika, Jeri and Takato, and a small "love triangle" between Mako, Suzie, and Cody. Although that last one is a joke,since they are the youngest and i think something like that would be pretty funny and cute. Thats pretty much all I've got to say. Really hope you like this story. Let me know what you think or any ideas you might have.
