Welcome to the Changed Tamer continuation story where this takes place a year after the Version 2 chapter, so read that before moving on.

If you have read it then I will let you know that this will contain a Digimon as the main villain that another author had kindly allowed me to use after creating something for her as thanks. (Didn't have to, but glad she did now.) Who will be mentioned next chapter.

This chapter will be short because it is to show what had occurred with the main pairing of this fic and the results it had brought, along with some other things.


Digimon Tamers

The Changed Tamer Continuation.

Chapter 1.

A year went by after Rika had apologized to Takato about him telling her about her now ex-boyfriend 18 year old Ryo Akiyama. A year that also made 17 year old Takato Matsuki a happy young man still, after what that night had gave to him.

A fixed up friendship that turned to affection, that then turned to love later on. The thing was that, that was not all, it had also brought him a second person close to him in his heart, named 16 year old Alice McCoy.

So far the only ones that knew of it were Henry, Jeri and their partners, apart from Terriermon seeing as how, well. Lets just say they wouldn't trust him as hard as hard as Renamon could punch him.

If it were Guilmon he could be silenced with bread and peanut butter, Calumon would be the same, Impmon a threat from both Digimon would take care of that. As for Terriermon, there was no telling.

But they kept it hidden this long, and did not plan a date on telling the others.


Shinjuku park.

So right now they were in a part of the park where they could be alone, being sat against a tree, Takato had Rika leaning against his right side and Alice on his stretched out legs on his left. Using them as a propped pillow so that she could look up at the nice blue sunny day sky.

The two of them over the months managed to change Takato's attire, getting him to wear gray jeans, a plain white t-shirt with a short sleeved gray jacket. A brown belt with his Digivice clipped on the back right and his cards pouch on the left side incase of any wild ones coming through.

Dark blue and white trainers with black wristbands and his trademark goggles on his head of still messy brown hair.

The girls were wearing their same attire, with both their developing bodies started gaining some qualities that would get a guys attention. But they rather stick to the one person that brought them happiness after they were saddened by separate reasons.

Alice for losing Dobermon but thanks to Takato would live her life knowing that he would forever be with her inside her heart and memories and spending time with the gogglehead was a good start to begin with.

And with Rika for when she was upset after finding out Ryo had cheated on her, she had gone to Takato for not only for comfort, but to apologize after what she had done to him for trying to tell her about it, but ended up hitting him and telling him things that were hurtful.

After that night, things have turned round for the two when it came to Takato. When it came to hanging out, if one was busy then the other can have some alone time with the young man.

When the three were together and alone then things would be alright, depending what they were doing as long as they kept it safe and not too loud.

"Things sure have been quiet lately." Takato said, thinking it were true seeing as how less Digimon have been coming through lately.

Alice nods in agreement to that, hearing the news from not just them but the others as well, seeing as how she could not be around during the danger.

"Agreed on that one." Rika word fully answers with, having her right arm being on a propped up knee and eyes closed, the back of her head leaning against Takato's shoulder.

"Maybe the Digimon don't want to end up deleted or injured, seeing as how you and the others are around." Alice says getting a word in.

"Speaking of Digimon. Any of you noticed a little change in dino-boy lately?" Rika asks, with eyes now opened staring off further ahead.

"Mm, it looks like he's acting more mature from the looks of it. With the way he was speaking he might sound the same, but not with his words." Takato explains to them, gazing down to the blond that was using his legs as a pillow.

Seeing that he was looking at her, Alice turns her head slightly with a kind smile, with him giving the same back.

"And Renamon has been acting a little strange to." Rika said changing the topic to her own partner this time.

Getting their attention by shifting their gaze. "It's like she's keeping something from me, and not telling me no matter what I try." Sounding worried as the two of them had nothing to hide, normally.

"Do you think they maybe linked?" Alice asked in curiosity, sitting up to turn and look at the redhead.

Shrugging at the probable answer, Rika turns her head half way for them to see her worried look. "Probably. I don't know." Before turning it back.

Moving to face her, well her back anyway. Takato placed a hand on her shoulder and reassures her. "I'm sure whatever it is, Renamon will tell you when she's ready. She is a tough Digimon, so if its trouble I doubt it'll be even a sweat for her to take care of on her own."

Having Rika give a smile even though she didn't turn to show them. "Thanks, Gogglehead." Getting said goggle wearer to put on a smile himself, meaning that Rika must be feeling better if she called him that.

"And if you want to, we can all go and ask if there is something wrong." Alice suggested to her, trying to lighten things even further.

Thinking for a bit about it, Rika got to her feet and brushed off some grass. "How about we get something to eat first. Goggles is buying, right?" Still with that smile, this time facing them, thinking it was funny yet a truthful question.

Groaning at the prospect of paying for their meals, Takato got to his feet, politely helping Alice up before agreeing to it and the trio were off.


Digital World- Desert area.

In the blissful sunny hot weather somewhere in the desert area, where nothing could be found but sand and odd looking shaped mountains.

That and a tall ancient temple that looked intact and guarded. By a circle of 13 Meramon in various spots keeping a look out on the temple.

While on the sandy ground were half a dozen Scorpiomon underneath, and 4 Tyrannomon's at the bottom of the steps.

"Why are we even guarding this place anyway? Whats in there that needs this many Digimon watching it?" The first Tyrannomon on the right asks, keeping his eyes out for, whatever.

Giving his comrade a shrug the one next to him answers with. "We weren't exactly told about it, except it being something absolutely dangerous."

This time the second on the other side spoke up. "Ha! Whatever it is, no one can break through while all of us watching it."

Getting agreements from the other three.

Unaware of the figures that were watching them, placed on a far off mountain.

"We wait for the time to strike." A calm males voice spoke, gaining silent nods from his companions.


Real World- Nonaka residence.

On their way in after having something to eat, the three couldn't find neither hide nor hair, or in this case fur for the humanoid fox. So they were now sitting in the living room deciding to watch a little movie.

Seeing as how the three of them weren't the romantic type, it either came down to, action, horror or comedy. So they settled for an action/comedy seeing as how it was early for a horror.

As they watched it on the sofa for a little while, they heard the door soon to open. Hearing Rika's mother call out.

"I'm home! Mom, Rika!" Trying to find out if anyone was around.

"In here, Mom!" Rika responds back to her as it sounded like the woman was getting closer.

Entering the room was Rumiko Nonaka, wearing blue fitting jeans with a brown belt and a circular silver buckle, a white blouse with floral patterns on the short sleeves and having on white socks. Her hair being tied in a ponytail.

"Oh, I wasn't expecting company with you. Hello Alice, Takato." She greeted them with a wave. Getting one back along with a hello themselves.

"Rika, have you got anything planned for tonight?" Rumiko asked her daughter curiously, leaning against the wall with her arms folded.

Giving her a suspicious look finding this a little odd. "Depends, whats going on?" The other two sensing the tone in her voice.

"Well, I ran into a modeling friend of mine and invited her over for dinner. She says, that she has a step-son and I thought it would be nice for you two to meet." She explains. Getting a frown to cross the girls face.

'I smell something fishy.' She thought, her mind on Renamon now changed to this little thing she was planning.

"Well actually, I'll be, uh." Trying to make something up to get out of this.

"Spending the night with me." Blurted out by the blond haired girl sitting on the left of the sofa, with Takato in the middle.

Heads were turned to face her, waiting for an explanation. "My grandfather is working late tonight, so he said I can have someone over to keep me company."

Slowly agreeing with that excuse, turning her head to face her mothers. "Y-Yeah, Alice asked me to spend the night so I thought why not, nothing better to do." Giving a shrug.

Accepting it with her own shrug she pushed herself off, saying to her after a quiet sigh. "Alright, have fun but not to much though." Turning her head with a somewhat of an amused smile. Then leaves them alone.

Takato was confused at what that was about, hearing the girls talking. "Thanks for that, Alice. Is your grampa really working late?" Both leaned forward looking passed Takato to get eye contact.

Nodding her head along with her reply. "Mmhm. Hypno's wanted him to help re-program the computers with Mr. Wong after Yamaki wanted them to be upgraded for some reason."

"Sounds like a late night thing, good thing I'm coming over, huh." Giving a wink. Nodding her head with a smile, till she looks at Takato. Having a questionable look on his face.

Giving each other a look then back to their favorite goggle wearing Tamer. Rika was the first one to ask him. "Okay Takato, whats wrong?" Giving him a shake by the shoulder.

Snapping out of it to see that Rika was shaking him a little. He took her hand to stop her and says to her. "Thanks Rika, I think I'm awake now."

"Okay. Mind telling us what got you to zone out there." She asks him, with Alice also listening in to what he has to say.

"It's just, what your mom just said." Was his explanation so far.

As Rika rolled her eyes thinking how dense he was, not reading between the lines of what was probably going on.

Alice was the one that explained it to him. "Mrs Nonaka maybe thinking of setting Rika on a date with this guy."

"As if that will happen." Hearing her muttering, Takato simply smiled knowing that Rika was not an easy person to set up. Heck despite being broken up, Ryo still tries to ask her out.

Shaking his head to that, he gave them his answer more understandable. "No I gathered that. It was the last thing she said, like she knows something."

Rika simply waves her hand as if it were nothing. "Don't worry about it, you know how she is sometimes." Getting to her feet quickly after remembering. "Renamon!"

The others jumped thinking she had appeared from somewhere, but saw no one.

"I almost forgot about her." Rika said, looking down to the floor sadly. "No wonder she's keeping secrets, I probably spend less time with her since the Digimon started coming less often. Plus being with you two and the others."

Hearing a short laugh coming from her, as both of them got up, she said quietly. "I became a lot soft thanks to you two mostly."

Thinking that was somewhat of a compliment, they gave a soft look to eachother. Before Takato made a move to get infront of her while her head was still down. Lifting her by the chin to look into his gentle eyes, she heard him say.

"Soft or not, will still be with you no matter what." Giving her a small kiss to the lips, then taking her into an embrace.

Not wanting to be left out Alice made her way through to join in, having Takato wrap his arm around her, while hers around both of them.

Being sure to keep it short incase Mrs Nonaka decided to come back and talk.

But the question they asked before still lingers, where is Renamon?


Shinjuku Park.

In another secluded part of the park two Digimon were sparring away from any human that could get in the way.

"Gotcha!" Guilmon exclaimed. Making Renamon snap open her eyes and leap out of the way of the diving Digimon from behind a tree.

Watching him slide a bit on the grass whilst perched on the nearest tree. Renamon shook her head slightly at the red saurians antics, thinking this was a game.

"Guilmon, the point of a sneak attack is to attack your enemy unsuspectingly." She says, seeing that he was getting to his feet.

Tilting his head slightly in confusion. "But your not my enemy, your my friend." He replied with in the same tone but more mature rather than childish.

A paw placed on her forehead having to explain this again. "And in a spar your opponent can be pretended to be an enemy. But in this case you have hold back."

Slumping himself down against the tree, he was looking at the ground. Being a bit sad about something. "Thanks for helping me with my speaking Renamon. But why are we doing this? Don't you normally do this sort of thing with Rika?"

Seeing his point but she did have a reason.

Jumping down to join him on the right side, an arm on her propped up leg. "Sort of but less dangerous for her. The reason why I am doing this is because I am giving Rika her time to enjoy herself."

Getting Guilmon to perk up and actually listen before she continued. "You don't know it, but I feel that Rika is more happy with Takato than she had been with Ryo. I did not say anything yet, but I don't think she wants to admit it to the both of them or to anyone."

Looking up through the leaves to the sunny blue sky. A small smile dawning on her face, looking rather sad. "Also, I have not told her this as it might force her to go back to as it were with the two of us. When really she should not be a Tamer all the time and simply be herself with her friends."

Turning her head to him, with Guilmon already done the same. "That is why we are training. As Takato is 'hanging out' as the humans say with Rika and Alice, I thought that he may not have found time to be with you."

Shrugging at that part Guilmon looks back and said, feeling her eyes still on him. "I don't mind, if it makes Takato happy to be with them, then I'm happy for him. Besides I still see him when he brings me food, sometimes having Alice with him and we talk and play a bit of tag when we can. So really I'm not sad at all."

Looking to her with a happy smile rather than a sad one. Surprising the fox at what he just said.

"And I know he'll have time so that all of us can play together, including you." Hearing this made her turn away, saying in a stern voice. "I do not play remember?"

Getting up with a serious face, she turns to the dino who was staring up at her, looking rather nervous.

"Lets continue shall we?" She said, holding up a clenched right paw. Taking a swing without an answer from him. But he got out of the way quickly, and began to take off. With Renamon in pursuit.


Digital World- Desert area.

The wind began to pick up blowing the sand about as a figure began to approach the temple, being at a close height to reaching Meramon, only some centimeters shorter than one.

Wearing a dark gray cloak that covers the less muscled body underneath, leaving the lower half of his legs revealed and the lower half of his face covered, having pale gray skin, red piercing eyes and jet black spiked down messy hair reaching close to his shoulders, covering the middle of his forehead.

Underneath he had black clawed hands with silver tipped fingers and a small dark red amulet embedded in the back of both of them. Having on black crossed straps over a crimson sleeveless old looking vest tied closed with a v-neck. His left shoulder had a smooth point sided metal guard, that has a built in dagger tail (Prince of Persia kind) chain, curled round the arm.

Having on crimson baggy desert trousers, black boots and a black belt with an old beaten brown pouch on the back left. His right side had a hanging holster with an all black double barreled gun like Beelzemon's. On his left side was a gray swords hilt with a closed up silver safeguard with a circle in the middle of it.

The top of his head he had on a brown cowboy looking hat with red jewels on the four sides of the strap around it, having a couple of tiny tears at the front of the rim.

Staring at the incoming figure now in question, wondering why any of the Scorpiomon hadn't already come out to question him already.

The Tyrannomon stood ready along with a few Meramon that now came down to see what was going on.

Stopping as soon as he was close enough, one of the Meramon had asked him while being on his guard along with the others. "Who are you and what do you want?"

But the stranger had stood silent with an emotionless look, as if he were waiting for something to happen.

"He asked, who are you and what do you want? Are you deaf or something!" One of the Tyrannomon repeated for him with a glare, gaining the same response.

As the sand blew in from the side fluttering his cloak a little. Before anyone could say or do anything, a blast sound could be heard, followed by a yell of pain from one of the Meramon above.

Shooting their sights up in stun to see the guard with a horrified look as he exploded into data.

With a swift move the stranger opens his cloak and un-holsters his double barreled shotgun on the Meramon that spoke to him. Just as they were looking back.

"I am Mercendramon, the death bringer." His eyes glowing slightly red, before he pulled the trigger, his gunshots giving off a sound through the picked up winds.

END OF CHAPTER 1.


Promise that the next chapter will be a little longer and will include the others.

For now show me how this turned out, if I get 6 good reviews then the chapter is good enough, if I get 6 bad ones then its back to the drawing board, if its a tie then the next one would decide it.
