Chapter 1
Nightmare
The scenery turned into a dark hall, two creatures spotted
"Take him to me, my dear servant, the time has come!" A shadow, cloaked creature spoke to his servant.
His servant only nodded before he went somewhere.
"At last, the time has come to destroy the DigiDestined, and the Sovereigns as well, and the Digital World should be mine." The shadow, cloaked creature laughed. His laugh echoed through the hall, sending a chill feeling to whoever heard this.
His servant then back with a Digimon. This Digimon was tied and unconscious. Without talking, he showed up the Digimon he'd brought. It was Veemon, yes, the tiny blue dragon Digimon, our hero, was tied there. Strangely, there was some kind of runic seal covered his right hand.
"Now, Veemon, the chosen Digimon, it's the time for you to show your true power. I shall activate the seal on your body, now wake up, my slave of destruction!!" And after he said that, he conjured some dark magic on Veemon.
A loud scream broke, echoing through the hall, followed by another malicious laugh.
Veemon screamed and woke up soon after this nightmare, his heart beat very fast. Thankfully, his partner, Daisuke slept so soundly, so the scream didn't wake him up.
'What a terrible nightmare.' Veemon thought as he tried to calm himself, and then he looked the clock, it was four o'clock in the dawn.
It was one year after they defeated MaloMyotismon, Fallen Cherubimon, and the monstrous Armageddemon. Nothing strange happened since then. Now the DigiDestined lived happily with their partners, but this nightmare made Veemon realized that something wrong had happened again.
'What is the meaning of this, and why me?' Veemon continued to think, cold sweated.
As he thought of that nightmare, the more confused he was becoming, so Veemon decided to sleep again. He hoped that he could forget that terrible nightmare, but he couldn't. The more he tried to forget it, the more he remembered it. He couldn't sleep again, mainly because of this nightmare, and partly because of Daisuke's loud snore.
The morning had come. It was a great new day in Odaiba. As always, Daisuke woke up late, but fortunately, it was Sunday, so he didn't have to go to school.
"Daisuke, it's time to wake up, until when you want to sleep, you lazy pig?" his sister, Jun, woke him up.
"It's Sunday, why do I have to wake up so early?" Daisuke whined as he lazily woke up and changed his clothes while his sister waited outside his room. It's ONLY 10 o'clock in the morning, after all.
"You should be ashamed of yourself. Left like that, you'll soon rot into your bed!" Jun scolded him, "Why can't you behave like your partner? He's so sweet and adorable."
"Hah, fat chances! Veemon is just like me, I bet he hasn't woken up yet." Daisuke spat, trying to adjust his clothes. After that, he checked Veemon, but he wasn't there.
"Wrong again, ol' brother!" Jun scolded back, "Your partner has woken up far before you, now he's in the kitchen. Now get out from there or you'll not get your breakfast!!"
"Chee, talk about grouchy temper, no wonder Yamato is trying so hard to avoid her." Daisuke retorted and then went outside, then walked to the kitchen.
'Hmm, something wrong must have happened, it's not usual that Veemon wake up before me. I wonder if today is gonna rain or something, usually he enjoys sleeping so much, like me.' Daisuke smirked as he entered the kitchen. Veemon was there, eating the breakfast with incredible speed, as always.
"Morning, Daisuke, it's not usual that you wake up so late." Veemon stated, still eating his breakfast.
"Well, excuse me if I wake up so late." Daisuke spat crankily, "Hey, don't eat my breakfast too!!" he shouted as Veemon started to eat his portion too.
"Daisuke, there's a phone for you!" Jun shouted, "It's from Takeru, he said that he and his friends would be waiting for you in his house!"
"Che, what did that T.J. want from me right now?" Daisuke muttered as he left his room to answer the phone, leaving Veemon alone.
'A…phone…call? No, it can't be…true, maybe Takeru is only inviting him to fun only, stay calm, stay cool, Vee, it's not like you to think like that.' Veemon thought, cold sweated as he waited Daisuke back.
"What do you want?!" Daisuke muttered grouchily as he answered the phone from Takeru.
"Tsk, tsk, you are sure cranky today, Daisuke!" Takeru replied with a little teasing tone in his voice.
"If you phone me just to make fun of me, I'll disconnect the line right now." Daisuke stated, readying to slam the phone.
"Whoa, wait, I didn't mean to do that!" Takeru stated panicky, "Yeah, can you go to my house? We'll hold a special meeting there, it's about the condition Digital World lately."
"Is that all? Only for that you call me? Sorry, I'm busy right now." Daisuke replied as he readied to close the phone.
"Well, that's too bad, Hikari said that she wanted to ask you something, but if you can't come, I guess she would ask me…." Takeru said a bit teasingly at Daisuke.
"Say no more, I'll be there in 15 minutes." Daisuke replied quickly, and then he slammed the phone and returned to his room.
"Takeru, how's going?" Ken asked his blonde friend.
"My strategy succeeds, when I told him that Hikari wanted to ask him something, he said that he would be here in the nick of time." Takeru smirked.
"Ha…ha…ha, it's just like him." Ken chuckled, "Now let's meet the others!"
"Veemon, get ready, we'll go to Takeru's right now. Something has happened." Daisuke stated as he hurriedly changed his clothes.
Gulp "Not something in Digital World, right?" Veemon gulped.
"Hmm, what's wrong with you, dude?" Daisuke asked him a bit worried because it's not usual Veemon acted like that; usually Veemon is cheery and happy-go-lucky.
"Well, we can't let them waiting for us." Veemon replied, "I'll tell you when we arrive there."
'Just like I've thought, there's something strange with Veemon, I'd better keep my eyes on him." Daisuke thought as they walked to Takeru's house.
No one talked when Daisuke and Veemon walked into Takeru's house. Veemon continued to act like someone was watching him while Daisuke glanced confusedly at him, a weird scenery indeed. Looked like the nightmare Veemon'd had last night really affected him so much. Yeah, that nightmare was a little too much for a happy-go-lucky Digimon like him.
After walking at least 10 minutes, they arrived in Takeru's house. It seemed that everybody had gathered there with their partners: Ken with Wormmon, Hikari with Gatomon, Miyako with Hawkmon, Iori with Armadillomon, and of course Takeru with Patamon.
"Hi, guys, sorry I'm a little late." Daisuke stated as Takeru opened the door.
"Well, you are always late, so what else is new?" Miyako said with a sarcastic tone, "Precisely, if you arrived just in time, we'll be shocked." This made all of them laughed, leaving Daisuke's face reddened.
"Ow, shut up, nerdette! I don't ask your opinion for that, why don't you mind your own business!?" Daisuke blurted.
"Why you, little brat!" Miyako retorted back, leaving the others sweat dropped, this was the usual term when Daisuke and Miyako met.
"Hey, hey, peace, both of you!" Ken chuckled, "This is not the time for childish play like that. We have a little problem here!" but Daisuke and Miyako continued to argue, didn't even pay attention to Ken's words.
"Yes, Ken's right, lately there's a huge amount of dark energy emerged in the Digital World, but the source is unknown. At first, I thought that was a remainder of MaloMyotismon's dark energy, but in some way, the energy didn't match of MaloMyotismon's dark energy frequency." Iori explained seriously.
Hearing the words 'dark energy' made Daisuke and Miyako stopped arguing. Somehow, they became allergic to those words. That could be explained, because they were still traumatized by MaloMyotismon, Fallen Cherubimon, and Armageddemon. All the Digimon also fell silent after Iori said that, especially Veemon. He gazed at Iori with his eyes widened as if he saw a ghost.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Daisuke and Miyako shouted together in horror.
"It can't be…true." Veemon shouted faintly, "No, tell me that you're joking!"
Everyone glanced questionably at Veemon as soon as he said that. They didn't understand what was Veemon just said; it wasn't just like him to say something like that.
"Huh, what's wrong, pal?" Wormmon, his DNA digivolve partner, asked him worriedly expression, but Veemon didn't answer him.
"What's wrong with your partner anyway?" Hikari asked Daisuke.
"I don't know, but yes, he's been acting strangely since this morning, I have no idea what had happened to him." Daisuke replied.
"Tell us, Veemon, what's happened to you?" Gatomon asked him with an anxiety tone, which made Veemon blushed a little.
"Yeah, please tell us, maybe we can help you." Patamon encouraged him.
"…Thanks for worrying me, but if I tell you, you'll only laugh at me!" Veemon replied.
"No, this is a serious matter, we'll not laugh at you, so please tell us!" Gatomon pleaded.
Sigh "Okay, then, last night…" Veemon began his story.
In about 10 minutes, Veemon told them about his nightmare, where he was captured by some shadow creatures and turned into 'slave of destruction'. Everyone could only keep their hands in their mouths listening to his story.
"Wow, dude, that was something, never thought you would dream like that." Daisuke commented as Veemon finished his story.
"What do you mean by that!? Veemon stated a bit irritably, feeling that Daisuke would make fun of him.
"No offense, pal, but I thought you always dreamed about food or something like that." Daisuke said jokingly.
"Gee, thanks a lot for that, PAL!" Veemon replied sarcastically.
"I think you're thinking it too much. It's not like you to be so worried like that you know." Hawkmon stated.
"Well, we can't ignore that." Iori said seriously, "Some dreams can reflect the future, you know."
"My, my, here we go again, Master Iori Hida is demonstrating his ability in dream's divination." Armadillomon joked.
"Oww, shaddap, Armadillomon, this is a serious matter." Iori blurted, while Armadillomon couldn't help but laugh flippantly.
"Whether it's true or not, that's not important right now, we have to investigate this case first, c'mon, let's go to the Digital World to check it." Takeru stated to remind them.
"Takeru's right, let's go to check it." Ken added.
"Should we inform the older DigiDestined?" Iori asked the rest of them.
"I don't think that's necessary, since most of them are busy right now to prepare their final tests for Junior High School next week, we can't bother them. In fact, they will be very mad if we bother them. Yesterday, when I asked my brother about the homework, he was just frowned at me." Hikari shrugged.
"The same with my brother. When I asked him to accompany me to the school fair tomorrow, he spat at me, 'I don't have time to do that, can't you see me that I'm busy? Go search someone else but me.'" Takeru stated.
"I think that explain why my sister is in bad mood." Daisuke sweatdropped, "Lately, she always scolds me even if I didn't do anything wrong."
"Enough about this, if we're talking about that over and over, we'll never make it into Digital World! Now get move, or I'll make you move with coarse!!" Miyako scolded them, almost losing her temper.
"Yes Ma'am!" Daisuke and Takeru sweatdropped.
"Veemon, are you sure you'll be alright?" Gatomon asked him a little worriedly, given that Veemon's face turned pale as they walked to Takeru's room to open the Digiport.
"Don't worry about me. Whatever happens, I'll face it." Veemon smiled, although deep in his heart, he was a bit afraid, but seemed he didn't have any other choice than to face whatever waiting for him.
"Okay, then Digiport opens!!" Daisuke pointed his D-3 into Takeru's computer and opened the digiport, transporting all of them to the Digital World.
Digital World, Darkness Area…
"Lord Millennium, I sense that the DigiDestined have moved into the Digital World." Gryphonmon, Digimon with shape like the legendary Gryphon, also one of the servants of Lord Millennium, informed his master.
"Good, they've eaten my bait, now it's up to Kimeramon to handle them and to plant the curse seal on him. Good job, you're dismissed." The shadow, cloaked creature called Lord Millennium stated.
"Thank you, My Lord; I'll be waiting for your next command." Gryphonmon kneeled, and then flew away from Lord Millennium.
"The time has come. It's time to get revenge on the DigiDestined and the Sovereigns." He laughed maliciously as he viewed the image of the DigiDestined and their Digimon. His target was there, along with the others.
The lord of darkness had made his first move…
Digital World, Dragon's Gate…
"Azulongmon, the dark energy is getting stronger and stronger, if that doesn't stop growing, I'm afraid that our Digital World is in the mortal danger." Gennai reported.
"Thank you, Gennai, now I want to guide the DigiDestined once more." Azulongmon commanded.
"Yes, My Lord." He answered, and then he vanished.
"Now you see what I mean?" Azulongmon stated to the other Sovereigns: Zhuqiaomon, Baihumon, and Ebonwumon, "The Lord of Millennium has made his first move."
"How can he break free after we seal him one thousand years ago?" Ebonwumon asked them in confusion.
"I don't know, but this is bad, really bad, because we don't have a chance to defeat him without our father's aid." Zhuqiaomon said.
Sigh "I wish Fanglongmon was here to help us." Baihumon stated a little disappointed. Fanglongmon, the fifth Sovereign, guardian of the Central Area, and their 'father' hadn't shown up again after they defeated Lord of Millennium 1,000 years ago.
"Anyway, he must seek revenge on us; we must act quickly, and carefully." Azulongmon stated to end the conversation.
