A/N: This is my first time writing on Fanfiction and I'm a little nervous, so please let me know if you like the first few chapters and if you do, I'll write more. I'm really excited about writing this story though and I hope you all enjoy! Takumi forever!

I do not own anything about digimon including its characters and plots.

Digimon Legacy: The Crystal Guardians

Chapter 1: The Field Trip

"Why do we have to go on this stupid field trip?", groaned a very bored Takuya Kanbara.

"Seriously, who would actually want to go to a cavern filled with rocks, bats and that disgusting, slimy stuff on the walls?", the boy's friend Zoey added.

"Excuse me, I would! It sounds so cool!"

"Kouichi, only you would like some kind of dark, murky place like that.", Kouichi's twin, Kouji retorted.

"I guess that's why he got the spirit of darkness.", their new friend and Kouichi's girlfriend Ally added. The gang had told Ally all about their trip to the digital world just two years ago.

The bus taking them to the Karafuru Caverns (Karafuru means colorful) was an old, smelly vehicle that had ripped seats and broken windows. Their science teacher, Mrs. Wong, had taken the eighth grade class on this field trip to learn about rocks and minerals. Tommy and JP couldn't come with them because they were in different grades.

As the bus came to an abrupt stop, Takuya, who was sitting next to Zoey, fell awkwardly on top of her and they both blushed. The bus driver shouted for the kids to get off.

"Um… s-s-sorry about that.", he stuttered.

"Th-th- that's okay." Her blush deepened.

"Hahaha! Takuya and Zoey, sittin' in a tree, K, I, S, S, I, N, G!", Kouji and Kouichi started and the rest of the students joined in.

Both of their faces flushed a deep red and neither of them would look at the other. They both thought they would burst from embarrassment until the unexpected happened.

"God you're all so immature, just let them out!", a boy shouted from the back of the crowd. He shoved his way through to the front so he could push the crowd back.

"Come on, everyone knows that song was so third grade", a girl chimed in.

The boy shot a grateful look at his companion and she gave a curt nod in return.

Another girl pushed her way through the surrounding mob, defending the blushing pair.

"Yeah! Besides, everyone saw it was an accident!", she announced.

Takuya looked up at the four kids defending them and managed to analyze their appearances.

The boy wore a green hooded sweatshirt, with matching green shorts that went over his knees. He also wore white ankle socks and a pair of electric blue sneakers. His dark brown hair seemed to have cyan blue ( light, icy blue) highlights, which was unusual, but seemed to fit his appearance perfectly. His body was tall, tan and muscular, similar to Takuya's.

The first girl was shorter, and looked completely different than her companion. Her long, auburn hair was in a Japanese style bun (like Rika's from season three) with a few strands hanging over her face. She wore a hoody similar to her brother's, but hers was yellow with a lightning bolt in the middle. She also had on jeans with tears at the knees and bright yellow flip-flops. Freckles dotted her pale face. Plain white tennis shoes adorned her feet.

The other girl wore a pink tank top and a white skirt with pink socks and pink and white tennis shoes. Her silvery hair was tied up in a ponytail. Her relatively light skin seemed to glow in the sunlight. She was also tall and lean.

Zoey looked at them in shock wondering why the "new kids" would want to defend them from embarrassment, when they and the gang always fought and played pranks on one another.

As the crowd started to back away and get off the bus, Takuya and Zoey helped each other up and met with Kouji and Kouichi. Takuya turned to thank the small group but they were already gone.

"What the hell guys! Why would you do that to us!?", Takuya yelled at his friends.

"Sorry we couldn't resist!"

"Ya whatever guys.", Zoey, equally as ticked off, added.

"Seriously that was mean Kouichi-kins!", Ally finally spoke.

"Rrrgghh! I thought I told you not to call me that!", Kouichi exclaimed, embarrassed.

"I know, but its fun!

The look on Takuya and Zoey's faces had changed from embarrassment to anger as the two chased their friends off the bus and out into the cold, murky landscape which was the Karafuru Caverns.

Ally sweatdropped and thought to herself: I guess I better get used to this.

When the twins had been taught their lesson by Takuya and Zoey, the group joined the rest of their class at the mouth of the cave.

"Alright class! You are free to explore the caverns as you wish but you must be back here for lunch!", Mrs. Wong announced.

After the announcement, kids started to run off in their own little groups to explore. As they were about to embark themselves, Zoey saw the three who helped she and Takuya earlier discussing where they wanted to go.

"Hey there are those kids! Do you think we should go over and thank them before they head in the caverns?", she asked Takuya.

"That's a good idea Z!", he replied.

Zoey's face glowed at his praise. As the four walked over to the "new kids" they could hear them talking amongst themselves. The seemed to be reading a map of the many tunnels in the Karafuru Caverns.

"I'm telling you, it was right, right, left, right!" the first, smaller girl spoke.

"And I'm telling you it was right, right, left, left!" the other girl shouted in reply.

"No it was right here remember?", the boy said.

"Oh yeah I remember, it was right by the rock that looked just like Emily's big head!", the taller girl replied.

"I do not have a big head! I just have a small body.", the girl, apparently named Emily, retorted angrily at her companion.

"Would both of you just shut up!? I can't even hear myself think!" He heard the footsteps of the gang behind him and looked up to see the gang right behind them and exclaimed to his friends, "Oh no! Its them! Quick run to the portal!"

As the three ran off, Takuya, Kouji, and Kouichi, stood planted in their spot, sweatdropping, while Zoey and Ally did a smell and breath check to make sure they didn't seem utterly repulsive in any way, shape, or form and when they realized that they were fine, they both struck a thinking pose and wondered why the three would just run away from them.

"God! Antisocial much!", Zoey exclaimed, angry at the three kids who so rudely ran away from them without so much as a hello.

"That's it! I'm going to thank them no matter what they try to do!", Takuya shouted, clearly aggravated at the kids. 'Let's go find them!"

AN: Ok so that's that. Hope you all enjoyed it! I'll try to update as soon as I can, but I can't guarantee anything.

What did the three mysterious kids mean by a portal? And why did they run away when they saw Takuya and the others? Find out in the next chapter of Digimon Legacy: The Crystal Guardians!

Any flames are okay, I'm open to constructive criticism.
