Hey readers of fanfiction I am trying something new and writing a story about the children of the original digidestined with my own little changes to how the epilogue went. So here's what stemmed this new desire to return to something from my childhood I found the entire first season on YouTube and watched some episodes. I hope you enjoy the chapter.
Nope I don't own digimon ):
Chapter One: The Journey Begins
Tai Kamiya was leaning against the hood of his car waiting for his friends to show up. His gaze shifted from the night sky to an approaching set of headlights. He recognized the silver sedan as his sister's car. He heard the car door behind him open and close, together he and Sora went to go greet Kari and TK.
"TK, Kari it's been such a long time." Sora said as she hugged her sister-in-law.
"They were at the house last week for dinner." Tai said taking his turn in hugging his sister. He hugged his brother-in-law and asked, "Have you heard from Matt? He never called me back."
"He's going to be here tonight." TK answered.
Tai and Sora were happy to hear that Matt would be joining them. After his divorce Matt had taken his kids and moved away from Odaiba, he rarely showed up for group get-togethers claiming it was a long drive or that he was swamped at work. TK and Kari saw him and the kids regularly because they were family and were willing to make the trip to Matt's country home.
Yolei and Ken showed up next, the couple was arguing over the babysitting capabilities of their teenage neighbor. Ken seemed to have complete faith in the girl, having done a background check on her and her family, while Yolei was still unconvinced that the girl could handle her kids. Ken told the four of them that Yolei was suffering from separation anxiety. The lilac-haired woman smacked her husband's arm and then proceeded to show the other two women pictures of the newest addition to her family.
"Oh Yolei he's adorable." Kari gushed. "How are Yuki and Ryuu taking to being older siblings?"
"Oh they love it, though like their dad they seem to disappear when it's feeding and changing time." Yolei said glaring daggers at her husband. TK and Tai snickered while Ken held his hands up defensively afraid that his wife might smack him again.
Slowly the rest of the group showed up and talked about anything and everything except for the reason they were all gathered atop of a bridge in Highton View Terrace at night. Tai looked over at Izzy, who had suggested earlier that they start without Matt, and nodded at the redhead.
"Wait!" Kari yelled as Izzy opened his mouth to speak. The group turned to look at the brunette. She lifted her hand and pointed to the sleek black sedan that was pulling into the space in front of Yolei and Ken's minivan. "Matt's here."
The whole group stared at the blond-haired man with wide eyes; they were surprised that he had actually joined them. Scratching the back of his neck Matt said, "Sorry I'm late I couldn't find a babysitter and then I got lost on my way to my mom's place."
"Its okay." Tai said unable to imagine what it was like to be a single father raising two kids. "Just glad you could make it man."
"Now that we're all here Izzy can finally tell us why we're all here." Davis said getting everybody's attention back on track.
"The Digital World's in trouble. Someone is creating X-Antibody Digimon and using them to wreck havoc throughout the Digital World. There were only a handful of X-Antibody Digimon on Monday but as of now the number is well in the thousands." Izzy said showing them pictures of the digimon. "Gennai and Azulongmon have agreed that it is time to call on a new generation of DigiDestined to save the Digital World."
"Our kids." Tai said looking around at his hesitant looking group of friends. "It is their destiny and we'll help them in every way we can. We did it and I sincerely believe that they can do it too."
At everybody's nod Izzy said, "Bring the kids to the lab tomorrow and we'll get them ready for what's to come."
"Matt we're going to need you." Tai said just before everybody started toward their cars.
"Which is why I've moved back to Odaiba." Matt said.
Izzy looked at the two children standing quietly beside Matt, it had been eight years since he'd seen them. Kai reminded him of Matt, from her blond hair and blue eyes to her quiet and closed off persona. Raiden on the other hand looked like the mother he most likely didn't remember with brown hair and green eyes but like his sister was quiet and reserved.
"Akira should be around here somewhere." Izzy said gesturing to the lab. "You two can go look for her if you want."
"No its okay we'll stay here." Kai said quietly.
At the sound of crying the four of them turned toward the door. Yolei smiled at them before taking off in the direction of the bathroom to no doubt change the crying baby's diaper. Ken ushered his two older kids through the door apologizing to everyone in the room for their noisy entrance.
Tugging at her dad's shirt Kai asked, "That's Mr. Ichijouji right?"
"Yes that's Ken and his kids, Yuki and Ryuu." Matt answered. Kai nodded and committed their names and faces to memory.
"Where's Akira?" Yuki asked completely oblivious to the fact that there were two kids standing in front of her best friend's father.
"Somewhere around here." Izzy said.
"Yuki don't be rude, introduce yourself." Ken said looking at Matt and his kids apologetically.
"Huh?" Yuki said confusedly, then she noticed the three person family standing beside them. Scratching the back of her neck she said, "Sorry, I'm Yuki and this is my brother Ryuu."
"I'm Kai and this is Raiden." The blond-haired girl said.
"Why haven't we seen you two around before?" Yuki questioned.
"We don't live in Odaiba." Kai said.
"Yeah we do." Raiden said quietly. At the lilac-haired girl's arched eyebrows he decided to add, "We just moved."
The door slid open again and Mimi walked in with a stressed looking Joe. The twins followed their parents in and automatically struck up a conversation with Yuki and Ryuu. As if suddenly remembering their presence Yuki introduced Miku and Michi to Kai and Raiden. Yuki squealed when her other best friend Hana walked through the door with her dad. Cody covered his ears but it didn't block much of the high pitch screaming. Davis and his son DJ were the next to arrive promising everybody lunch after everything was said and done.
"I'll hold you to that Davis." Tai said as he, Sora, and their kids walked into the room. "Takumi and I are hungry."
"You two just ate." Sora said to her husband and son.
"They're always hungry mom." Emi said looking up at her older brother and father.
"You should have seen your father eat when we were kids." Kari said as she, TK, and their kids walked in completing their group of friends. "He ate until he was sick and then ate some more."
"Yeah when we weren't eating mom's food." Tai said defending himself.
"Alright now that we're all here we can begin." Izzy said leading the group over to a glass cabinet. Behind the glass on four different shelves lay thirteen newly designed digivices. Addressing the kids Izzy said, "These are yours, they allow you to open the gate to the Digital World and allow your digimon partner to digivolve."
"But we don't have digimon." DJ said.
"You haven't met them yet." Izzy said as he unlocked the cabinet doors. He distributed the digivices to their correct owners and led the group to one of the computers. "Takumi point your digivice at the screen and say 'digi-port open' it will open the gate to the digital world."
"Okay." Takumi said. He held the orange and white device in front of the computer screen and yelled, "Digi-port open!"
The young DigiDestined and their parents landed in the Digital World. Izzy explained that they were in Primary Village where their digimon were waiting for them. The parents watched as their kids were ambushed by a group of eager in-training digimon. The joyous moment was cut short by a nearby blast. Rising into the sky and headed their way was a giant red insectoid digimon.
"Kuwagamon." Tai said looking around for his digimon partner only to remember that he hadn't met up with him yet.
"No Tai that's Kuwagamon X." Izzy said.
"What difference does it make if it has the X in its name its still a giant bug headed our way." Kai said moving to stand in front of her younger brother.
"The X means its been affected with the X-Antibody making it stronger than a normal Kuwagamon." Tsunomon informed his new partner.
"What do we do?" Takumi asked his dad.
"We fight." Koromon said hopping in front of his partner. The other in-training digimon followed. "Hey you overgrown garden pest take this, Bubble Blow!"
"Bubbles! What good are bubbles against that thing?" Michi Kido asked no one in particular.
"Son calm down." Mimi said to him. She turned to her husband and said, "He reminds me so much of you honey."
"How can you guys be so calm at a time like this?" Yuki asked surprised that her mother hadn't started having a panic attack.
"Because we know you guys can handle this guy." Ken answered.
"Is this some kind of test?" DJ asked snapping his goggles onto the top of his head.
"No." Davis answered looking over at Izzy to make sure he was right. "Just believe in your digimon."
Getting bored with the in-training digimon Kuwagamon X decided to go for the group of overwhelmed kids. A bright white light surrounded each of the digimon and when it dimmed thirteen rookie level digimon stepped forward to defend their partners from the red beetle.
"Pepper breath."
"Blue blaster."
"Spiral twister."
The three attacks hit but didn't do much to stop Kuwagamon X's advance. A school of fish and some vines were easily knocked aside. The loud bark, burst of electricity, and blast of air didn't even phase the bug. It swatted Veemon and Armadillomon aside as if they were the bugs not him. The large pincers cut Wormmon's sticky web and Hawkmon's feather was easily dodged.
Standing off to the side out of Kuwagamon X's view Dorumon stood still and charged his attack. He released the iron ball and hit the bug succeeding in making it stumble. Forgetting the children Kuwagamon X turned around and used its scissors claw attack on the purple rookie digimon that had attacked him.
"Dash metal." Dorumon repeated hitting his enemy square in the face with a weaker iron ball.
"Guys attack it together!" Takumi yelled at the digimon.
Forgetting about Dorumon Kuwagamon X sped toward the brown haired boy that had given the order.
"Takumi!" Tai and Sora yelled both afraid that they made a mistake in letting their kids into the Digital World.
"Agumon digivolve to…Greymon."
Greymon charged at Kuwagamon X and knocked the bug aside. When it went airborne Greymon fired his Nova blast at it repeatedly. The insectoid digimon flew toward the orange dinosaur only to be swatted away by its tail and then fired at. Kuwagamon X was disintegrated and Greymon reverted back to Agumon. Just as the DigiDestined began to celebrate their first victory in the Digital World a hooded figure appeared cutting their celebration short.
"So the DigiDestined have returned to save the Digital World." The man hidden underneath the hood said.
"Who are you?" Takumi said standing in front of the group protectively.
"You will find out in due time Guardian of Courage." The hooded man said. "I've just come to see if my master should be worried about you, he shouldn't."
"He should." DJ said from behind Takumi.
"No you are as weak as you are foolish." The hooded man said. He tilted his head in the direction of Kai, Amaya, and Ryuu. "Some of you will prove to be fine additions to our armies, namely the Guardian of Friendship over there." He stepped toward Kai ignoring Gabumon's growl. "It'll be easier if you come with me now child, it'll spare your friends from getting hurt."
"No." Kai said firmly.
"Fine but you will come eventually, it has been foreseen." The hooded man whispered into her ear. Stepping back he said, "It has been a pleasure but I must report back to my master. So until we meet again DigiDestined."
With a snap of his fingers the man had vanished as quickly as he had appeared. The DigiDestined walked back to their parents who all wanted to know what the hooded man had told them. Kai didn't tell them what he had told her when he spoke into her ear choosing to keep his words to herself until she could figure out what they meant. They met their parents' digimon and headed back to the real worlds where they had a lunch paid for by Davis.
All throughout the day Kai kept hearing the hooded man's words in her head. "Fine but you will come eventually, it has been foreseen."
"I won't go." She muttered to herself as she stared out the car window on the drive back to their new house. "I won't."
