Yo what up? I finally have my first chapter for Digimon: Battle Tournament. Lame name I know, maybe I'll change it later. For now let's get on with the show.
Author's Note: This is partly a continuation of Data Squad/Savers and partly based on some of the various Digimon video games with their features, such as tamer ranks, team battles, and some familiar Digimon. But there will be a new feature in this fic, similar to the modify cards in Tamers and the digi-memories in Xros Wars.
Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon in any way possible. If I did, then we wouldn't have to wait three years for a new series.
Episode 1: The Return of the Monsters
On a quiet night in the city, everyone was going about their daily lives, all except one. This guy was running through the crowd on his roller blades. He had short spiky brown hair and onyx eyes, a red jacket with an orange shirt underneath, black jeans, and white sneakers, which were replaced with orange roller blades for the moment.
As he was skating through he noticed a ramp and decided to take a chance. He quickly gains speed as he skated to the ramp. But on the way he almost ran into a girl with long white hair, but was able to maneuver around her.
"My bad! Sorry about that!" he yelled over his shoulder.
The girl didn't have time to respond as the blader was out of earshot.
"What was that about?" she asked herself but shook her head a second later. "I've got to stay focus. Remember why your here Rei." She said as she walked out of sight.
The blader finally made it over to the ramp and jumped right over it, hovering in mid-air. This caught a few people's attention, but the blader payed no attention to them. While in mid-air, the blader did a reverse flip in the air, followed by a 360 degree spin kick before finally landing on the ground unharmed.
Blader (thinking): That was too easy. I need a bigger challenge.
As he was thinking of where else to skate he noticed a man in a brown and yellow standing next to a table on the side walk. The table said "Want the adventure of a lifetime? Come here and take Wisemon's test to see if you have what it takes".
Blader: Wisemon's test? That sounds interesting. Why not give a shot.
The blader slowed down a little as he made his way to the hooded man. When the blader stopped in front of him he noticed the hooded man's eyes were glowing yellow and that the rest of his face was not visible. The blader was a little creped out by his appearance but decided to give him a chance.
Wisemon: Ah welcome young man. Are you here to take my test?
Blader: Yes. I saw the sign and was curious by this "adventure of a lifetime" thing your sign said and thought it could be fun.
Wisemon: Well then allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wisemon, pleasure to meet you.
Blader (shakes his hand): Hi my name is Taka.
Wisemon: That is an interesting name.
Taka: Your one to talk. What kind of name is Wisemon?
Wisemon: We're I'm from a lot of my people end their names in mon. But your name doesn't name doesn't sound like its American.
Taka: Well I'm actually half-Japanese. It's short for Takashi but it's really embarrassing. It sounds like the name of some hero from a TV show. This sometimes makes me wish my mom wasn't Japanese.
Wisemon (chuckles lightly): Well if you ask me I'd say that your mother gave you a perfect name for yourself.
Taka: I suppose. She always made everything unique. So what kind of test do I have to take?
Wisemon: All you have to do is answer some of my questions about one topic. Depending on your answer, your future will be determined.
Taka: Okay, what's the topic?
Wisemon: Power.
This took Taka back a bit, as he was unsure of how to respond to that, but he quickly regained his composure.
Wisemon (cryptically): Are you ready? Once you begin this test there is no turning back.
Taka: I'm ready.
Wisemon: Very well then. The first question is: What would you do if you had power?
Taka: Well if I had power I would use it to help people in need. Is that correct?
Wisemon: There is no right or wrong answer for this test. Answer them honestly. Next question: Where do you think true power comes from?
Taka: Well that's kind of hard to describe, but I suppose it comes from believing in yourself.
Wisemon: Final question: How would you treat someone who could use this power and fight for you?
Taka: What do you mean fight for me?
Wisemon: Please answer the question.
Taka: I'm not sure about the fighting for me part, but I would treat this person the same way I would treat anyone else: As a living being.
Wisemon: A living being huh? You're the first person I've met who said that. A lot of other people I tested said they would treat that someone as a weapon or a tool.
Taka: Well I can't see how that someone would be treated as a weapon.
Wisemon: if I may, may I ask you one more question?
Taka: Sure. Go ahead.
Wisemon: If you were to meet that someone and saw what it could do, would still feel the same way of treating it like a living being?
Taka: Of course!
Wisemon: I see. (Thinking) This boy, I can sense that he might be the one I've been looking for all along.
Wisemon (pulls out a red box): Well Taka I have something for you.
Taka: What is it?
Wisemon: This is a box that well determined whether or not you have passed this test or not. But you must promise me that you will not open it until the time is right?
Taka: Okay, but when will the time be right?
Wisemon: You will know when you hear the roar... of you partner.
Taka: Partner? What partner?
Wisemon: That is all I can say for now. (Hands Taka the box) I must go now.
Taka: Yeah I'd better head back home myself. I still have a lot of homework to do.
As Taka is about to take off he notices something odd about the box. It feels as if nothing is in it.
Taka: Hey Wisemon are you sure there's something in this-
As Taka turned around he noticed Wisemon was gone, along with the table.
Taka (looking around): What the- Where did he go?
As Taka was looking for Wisemon, he decides to ask someone if he knew where he went.
Taka: Excuse me sir, do you know where that guy Wisemon went?
"Sorry kid but I don't know any Wisemon."
Taka (points to were Wisemon once stood): How could you not know. He was having some kind of test over there.
"I have no clue, but there was no one standing there when I passed by".
Taka: Sorry to have bothered you. (Heads to where Wisemon once stood)
Taka: How could no one have noticed him? Was he some kind of ghost or maybe it was a dream. But if it was a dream then how come I still have to box he gave me? This doesn't make sense.
Taka decided to worry about this tomorrow, so he put the box in his black backpack and swapped his roller blades for his sneakers and started walking home.
Scene Change
The next day, at Hiurmo Middle School, a young man around the age of fifteen was just arriving to his classroom. He had dark blue hair and gold eyes, a red jacket, with a white shirt underneath, green pants, and black shoes. He laid his book bag on his desk and was about to sit down until her heard someone behind him. He turned around and saw who it was. It was a girl with brown hair in long pintails and green eyes, and the same outfit he was wearing, except she was wearing a green tie.
"Good morning Keenan." The girl said.
Keenan smiled when he spoke to her.
Kennan: Good morning Kristy.
Kristy: So did you do last night's homework?
Kennan: Of course I did, but I'm not sure I did it right.
Kristy: I know right? How to they expect second year middle schoolers to do this kind of work in one night?
Kennan slightly chuckled.
Kennan: I don't know but at least we get a week up after today.
Kristy: Yeah, I'm with you there. Speaking of which, what are you doing the break?
Kennan: Not sure. I guess I'll go with my family to my aunt's house for the break.
Kristy: That sounds like fun. You haven't seen your aunt in a long time.
Kennan: Yeah but not as long as I haven't seen my parents. Speaking of which, what are your plans with your family this week?
Kristy: Not sure. We were going to go to America during the break.
Kennan: That sounds like it would be fun.
Kristy (sadly): Yeah, but I wish that Marcus could come.
Kennan: I know how you feel, but we haven't had any contact with Marcus since he went back to the Digital World with the Digimon. We don't even know if he's-
Kristy: I know but I keep hoping that one day Marcus will come back to us.
Before Kennan could say anything more the bell rang, and students got into their desks. Their teacher Mr. Nanjo walked through the door, and made his way to his own desk in front of the students. Mr. Nanjo had black hair, a tan suit, and a stern face. He turned his attention to the students.
Mr. Nanjo: Alright, before we begin class today, I have a few things I need to say to you. First off there will be no homework during the one-week break. Second we have a new student joining us after the vacation. And last but not least, if I catch any of you causing trouble by the end of the day I will assign you a one thousand paged essay on why you should act your age. Understand?
Class: Yes Mr. Nanjo!
Mr. Nanjo: Alright now that that is out of the way let's start class. Please open your books and turn your books over to page 213.
"Kennan! Help... me!"
Kennan looked up and turned his head to Kristy.
Kennan (whispering): Did you say something?
Kristy (whispering): No. Why do you ask?
Kennan (whispering): Nothing, I just thought I heard someone calling out to me, that's all.
Kristy (whispering): You're probably just tired from all of the work we've had to do over the last few weeks, but this vacation is just what you need to unwind and relax.
Kennan (whispering): Yeah, you're probably right Kristy. (Thinking) But still, I can't shake this feeling that something is going to happen soon, and that the Digimon will somehow be involved in it. I hope I'm wrong though.
Scene Change
Meanwhile on the outskirts of a cave a large group of different monsters were gathered around. They were all in front of ledge where a smaller cave could be seen. Entering through the cave was a humanoid that looked like he was on fire. He motioned for the crowd to pay attention.
Meramon: Greetings fellow Digimon. I am Meramon, the dark ruler's second-in-command. He has asked me to give you an important message. Recently two traitors Digimon have escaped the dungeon and are trying to make it to the Sacred Castle!
This caused all of the Digimon in the room to gasp in horror. The Sacred Castle is one of the very few places were only pure Digimon can survive. Any Digimon with any darkness in their hearts will instantly be deleted upon entering the grounds.
Meramon: If they make it there before we can catch them, then they'll tell that foolish leader of theirs where our base is located. Snimon come here at once.
A giant praying mantis Digimon flew over to where Meramon was. It had two large scythes on its arms and was colored mostly green, with red markings.
Snimon: You called General Meramon?
Meramon: Your orders are to find the two prisoners and bring them back here. If they resist, then you have permission to eliminate them if necessary.
Snimon: As you command general. I shall leave at once.
Snimon took off from the main entrance and headed west.
Meramon: Once those two are taken care of, we shall begin preparing for the invasion of the Digi-Central. Eventually we'll invade Earth too. All in the name of the Dark Ruler!
Crowd: All hail the Dark Ruler! All hail the Dark Ruler! All hail the Dark Ruler!
Scene Change
After school got out, to the relief of many students, Kennan was walking Kristy home again, but his mind was still unease from what he heard earlier. Kristy took notice of this and tried to think of something to say to cheer him up. Before she could say anything Kennan's phone went off and he picked it up.
Kennan: It's my mom. Hello?
Mrs. Crier: Kennan, I'm sorry but I got some bad news. Your aunt just called and said that the train station is having some problems so we won't be able to visit her this week.
Kennan: That's a bummer. So what are we going to do then?
Mrs. Crier: Well your father and I are going to be busy with some work, but as for you and Ruka, well I'm not sure.
Kristy overheard the entire conversation and an idea hatched in her mind.
Kristy: Kennan why don't you ask your mom if you can come to America with me and my family.
Kennan (puts his hand over the phone): Huh? You sure about that?
Kristy: Of course. It would be really nice to have someone to talk to besides my parent's for a change.
Kennan: I'll ask my mom. (Takes his hand off of the phone) Hey mom would it be alright if I went with Kristy and her family to America for the vacation?
Mrs. Crier: I don't know. It's awfully far, but if you're going with Kristy's family then I'll allow you to go.
Kennan and Kristy Alright! (They high-fived each other)
Kennan: Thanks mom. I'll be home soon to pack.
Mrs. Crier: Okay. I'll let your father know too. Bye.
Hangs up the phone and puts it in his pocket.
Kristy: Sweet. I'll go let my parents know that you're coming.
Kennan: Okay. When are we leaving?
Kristy: We're leaving first thing in the morning at around six o'clock. So you better be up bright and early by then.
Kennan: Yeah I will.
They eventually made it to Kristy's house were they both said bye to each other and Kennan started walking to his house. Kennan couldn't help but smile as he walked but still couldn't get that voice out of his head.
Kennan (thinking): I know I heard someone calling out to me today. They were calling for help. And I can remember that voice who called out to me.
Kennan stopped walking and looked up at the sky saying something to himself with a look of worry.
Kennan: Falcomon, what's happening to you?
Scene Change
In another world two strange creatures are seen running through a dense forest. One of them looked like a humanoid black falcon. He had a small toothless beak, red eye markings, dark brown body feathers and purple chest feathers with shuriken markings.
The other creature looked like a firey humanoid lion with red fur. On its body it contained gold jewels on both its arms with fire lit on them. Its eyes looked like the sparkling crystals you find in oceans.
They were running what seemed like hours with their destination still nowhere in sight. The falcon looked behind him and so no one following them. When he realized they weren't in any danger for the moment the falcon spoke to the lion.
Falcomon: Coronamon, I don't see anyone chasing us. We should find someplace safe and rest for the moment!
Coronamon turned to his falcon friend and responded.
Coronamon: Sorry Falcomon but there's no time for rest. We have to get to the Sacred Castle and inform them of where the Dark Empire's base is! If we get caught now then our escape will have been all for nothing!
Falcomon: I understand, but if we don't recover our strength then we'll end up getting captured anyway, or worse!
This caused Coronamon to stop running and turned to face Falcomon.
Coronamon: You're right but... I just don't want to go back there.
Falcomon: And you won't my friend, (put's his hand on his shoulder) because I'm here by your side.
This comment made Coronamon crack a smile from his friend.
Coronamon: Thanks Falcomon. I'm lucky to have a friend like you.
Falcomon: Don't worry about it. Besides (points up ahead) I think I see a stream up ahead. We can rest there.
Coronamon nodded in agreement, as they made it over to the stream.
While Falcomon was gathering water in his wings to drink, Coronamon decided to ask him a question that's been bugging him for a while.
Coronamon: Hey Falcomon can I ask you a question?
Falcomon (turns his head to face his friend): Sure.
Coronamon: While we were asleep last night I heard you calling out for help to someone, but the name didn't sound familiar to me.
Falcomon looked surprised that Coronamon heard him mumbling in his sleep.
Falcomon: That's because I wasn't calling out for a Digimon. I was calling out for a human.
Coronamon: A human? Why were you calling out for a human in your sleep?
Falcomon: Because a long time ago I befriended a human and became his partner. I'd rather not go into the details right now, but let's just say that because of that human I'm the Digimon I am now.
Coronamon didn't know what to say. He had heard that several years ago Digimon teamed up with humans to fight together, yet no one knew who they were. It came as a real shock to him.
Coronamon: Wait, so you were one of the Digimon who defeated King Drasil?
Falcomon: Well, all I did was assist my friends in protecting the human world, but in a matter of speaking yes.
Coronamon: Why would you protect it? Weren't humans the ones who came to the Digital World and attacked us several times?
Falcomon: Yes, but that was all because of one man, and not all humans are evil. My partner would have given his life to protect me and I would do the same. We're more than just partners, we're best friends.
Coronamon (mumbles to himself): Wow. I wished I had a best friend like that.
Falcomon: Well that's enough rest for now. Let's get going. We have a long way to the Sacred Castle after all.
Coronamon: Okay.
Falcomon and Coronamon left their hiding spot and began running again with renewed energy. However little did they know they were being watched by something. A grey orb was shown hovering over where they were resting.
Just outside of the forest, Snimon was shown looking through another orb, with eh first orb displaying the location to the second.
Snimon: I see, so they've managed to reach that far into the forest already. No matter, with my speed I should reach them before they get out of the forest.
The orb dispersed and Snimon went charging into the forest.
Scene Change
A few hours later in New York City, Taka was just leaving his school. Although most kids would be happy that they get an entire week off from school, Taka just wasn't in the mood for celebrations.
Taka: Well I guess I should be happy but I just can't believe that my dad wouldn't tell me sooner.
Flashback
After his encounter with Wisemon, Taka walked to his house, still thinking over what Wisemon had said. But that was cut short as he quickly made his way to his house. It was a standard house for common people.
Taka: I'm home!
A girl who looked to be about nineteen approached Taka. She had long black hair, tied in a ponytail, a magenta shirt, and a pair of jeans.
Heather: Welcome back Taka.
Taka: Yo Heather.
Heather: So where have you been, off taking risks like some crazy daredevil?
Taka (shrugs his shoulders): Eh, maybe. Like it really matters to you what I do.
Heather: Okay, what's up with the attitude?
Taka: Nothing, hey do you know of any country where the people end their names in mon?
Heather: No, I've never heard of anything like that. Why?
Taka: Just curious. So anyone else home?
As if to answer his question someone else spoke before Heather could.
"Hello Takashi, nice to see you back before it got late."
It was a woman, much older that Heather, but looked like she was in her thirties. She had long brown hair, a long blue dress with a matching purse, and sliver heels. She also had a graceful smile on her face.
Taka: Hey Allison.
Unlike how Taka spoke to heather, he spoke to Allison with a much more bored tone. Heather seemed shocked that Taka spoke to her that way, but Allison still had that smile on her face.
Allison: Well I guess I was worried for nothing then. I thought that something might have happened to you since it's so late out, but you're still the same Takashi we know and love.
Taka: Yeah it's still the same me. (Muttering) Too bad the feeling's not mutual though.
Although Allison didn't hear that, Heather did and was angry at how Taka was talking to Allison.
Allison: Well your father and I are about to go to the party before we hit traffic.
This caught Taka's attention when she mentioned a party.
Taka: Wait, a party. Why are you and dad going to a party?
For the first time since he got home Allison's smile was gone and was replaced by a look of surprise.
Allison: You don't know? Didn't your father tell you?
Taka: No. Tell me what?
At that moment a man with short brown hair entered the room. He was wearing a standard tuxedo.
Taka's Father: I was going to tell him when he got home, but I never imagined he'd be this late.
The man approached Taka, who unlike Allison had a look of disappointment on his face.
Taka: Well sorry. I was just trying to live my life, and the last time I checked that wasn't a crime.
Taka's Father: Well you should have called us and let us know where you were young man.
Taka (sarcastically): My bad. So what's up with this party you're going too?
Taka's Father: This party is a celebration party for an employee who got a job transfer in Japan.
Taka: I don't see what the big deal is. I'm heading up (goes to the stairs and starts to walk up them)
Taka's Father: The big deal is that I'm the employee who's getting the job transfer!
This froze Taka for a second before he turned around.
Taka: You're getting the job transfer? When did you first hear about this?
Taka's Father: I was notified about a three weeks ago. As soon as I was offered the job I took it right away.
Taka: You just took it right away? Why didn't you talk to us about his before you took the job?
Taka's Father: I told Allison this after I got the job, and I told Tyson and Candice a few days after, and Allison told Heather and Ritchie last week. They were all okay with this.
Taka: But I'm not! Why didn't anyone tell me about this? What about my friends and school?
Taka's Father: You well be attending Hiurmo Middle School in Tokyo, were I'm sure you make a lot of new friends there. As for why I didn't tell you until now, I didn't see it fit to let you know until your vacation.
Taka: Were leaving on vacation?
Taka's Father: Yes. I wanted to leave a day or two after I got the job but Allison suggested that we'd wait until your one week vacation. We are leaving eight days. I've already informed your teachers and the transfer paperwork has already been taken care of.
Taka: But this just isn't fair! Did you ever think that maybe I didn't want to leave my hometown! That I still wanted to live here with people I know! Did you forget that next week is-?
Taka's Father (shouting): I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN. I KNOW EXTACLY WHAT NEXT WEEK IS!
Allison tried to calm Taka's Father down after he shouted. In a matter of seconds he was calmer. Though still with that scowl on his face.
Taka's Father: We are leaving for Japan in eight days. You better be packed by then. Let's go Allison. (Leaves through the front door.)
Allison: Coming. (Turns to Taka) Takashi, I know that this is sudden but I'm sure that after a few days in Japan you'll be taking risks again in no time. Well, I'' see you kids later. Your father and I will be home by eleven.
Allison waved to them before leaving through the front door. The room became quiet after that, with neither sibling saying a word until Heather spoke up.
Heather: I know it's a big transaction, but we'll get used to it soon.
Taka (turns his back to Heather): Yeah sure, that's exactly what you said about Allison but I still haven't gotten used to her.
Heather: You know she's trying her hardest. I know she can never replace our mother, but we you should give her a chance.
Taka: I'll never accept that women as my mother!
As Taka said that, he walked back upstairs to his room and slammed the door once he got in.
End of Flashback
Taka: I guess I shouldn't be too surprised he would pull a stunt like this. He hasn't been the same since my mother pass away.
Taka was so deep in thought; he didn't notice that there was someone calling his name.
"Taka, hey. Taka look over here."
Taka finally heard the voice and looked to his left. Waving at him was a small boy about the age of around the age of ten. He had spiky black hair, a yellow shirt, black shorts, and a red headband. He was waving at Taka for a second before Taka finally noticed him. The kid ran up to him.
Taka: Ritchie, what are you doing here?
Ritchie: I came to walk home with you on our last day of school in America.
As he said that he had a big smile on his face. Taka couldn't help but grin at the kid.
Ritchie was Allison's youngest son, and since she married Taka's Father, he became the youngest in the whole family. He was a nice kid who quickly got along with his new siblings.
Taka: Well I appreciate that Ritchie. Come on.
Ritchie: Okay! Oh I almost forgot, I wanted to give you something.
Ritchie went into his backpack and pulled out a pair of red goggles.
Ritchie: These are a pair of new goggles that your old teacher, Mrs. Adams, wanted me to give to you. She says it's the latest fashion.
Ritchie hands Taka the goggles.
Taka: Heheh, this was quite a surprise. I'll have to thank her before we leave. (places the goggles over his head) Well how do I look?
Ritchie: You look great wearing those.
Taka: Alright then. Let's get a move on shall we?
Taka and Ritchie walked through the city for about twenty minutes until Taka suggested they'd get something to eat, to which Ritchie agreed too.
Taka got himself a hamburger while he got Ritchie a mini-burger. While Taka was eating his burger Ritchie asked Taka a question.
Ritchie: Hey Taka, why is it that you call my mom by her first name?
This question took Taka off guard for a sec as he choked on his burger when the question was asked. After regaining his composure he answered the question.
Taka: Well that's a little complicated to answer Ritchie.
Ritchie: Well there must be a reason, right?
Taka: If there is a reason then it's best if you wait until you're a little older.
Ritchie: But I don't understand why I have to wait.
Taka turns to Ritchie and gives him a closed eye smile, then rubs his hair for a second.
Taka: Don't worry kido; you'll understand one of these days. (takes a last bite out of his burger, and then throws the wrapper in the trash.)
Ritchie does the same thing, and they both grab their bags. Before Taka reached for his bag though, he heard what sounded like a lion's roar come out of nowhere. Taka quickly looked around for the source of the roar, but noticed that no one else heard it. He then recalled Wisemon's words from yesterday.
Wisemon (pulls out a red box): Well Taka I have something for you.
Taka: What is it?
Wisemon: This is a box that well determined whether or not you have passed this test or not. But you must promise me that you will not open it until the time is right?
Taka: Okay, but when will the time be right?
Wisemon: You will know when you hear the roar... of you partner.
Taka (thinking): Could that have been the roar that he was talking about?
Ritchie: Hey Taka, what's wrong?
Taka snapped out of his daze and looked down at Ritchie, giving him a weak smile.
Taka: Nothing, just a little tired from my last day here. Come on let's go.
Ritchie nodded his head and they both once again headed out. But unknown to Taka, the box he kept in his backpack the day before was glowing a faint glow.
A Little Earlier
Falcomon and Coronamon were still running through the forest. They had been running for who knows how many hours. Every now and then Falcomon would turn his head around to make sure that no one was following them. As far as he could tell, he couldn't see any enemies.
Falcomon: Hm, this is strange.
Coronamon: What do you mean?
Falcomon: We've been running since yesterday, yet we haven't encountered anyone chasing us.
Coronamon: Isn't that a good thing? This means we're in the clear.
Falcomon: Or it could mean we're in a trap.
Coronamon: Huh?
"You're as sharp as ever Falcomon."
Snimon appeared right in front of them, causing both Digimon to stop running and look up at the insect Digimon.
Falcomon: So you have been following us this whole time. How is it I could not detect your presence?
Snimon chuckled and brought out his grey orb.
Snimon: I've been using this little device to track your movements since I got here. Thanks to this I was able to follow your little trail, though I must admit it was a good idea to move in different patterns to try and confuse me.
Falcomon: So you knew about that too. (Thinking) This isn't right. Snimon isn't this smart. He must have had some help. But the question is by whom?
Falcomon took a battle stance to prepare for when Snimon made an attack, but Coronamon was trembling so much he couldn't even move.
Falcomon (whispering): Coronamon listen up, I'll distract him while you make a run for it.
Coronamon (whispering): But I can't leave you behind. Your no match for a Champion unless you digivolve.
Falcomon scoffed at that comment and replied.
Falcomon: I may not be stronger than him, but I'm definitely faster than him. I can buy you at least enough time to make it out of the forest.
Coronamon: But Falcomon-
Before Coronamon could protest Snimon attacked.
Snimon: Twin Sickle!
He launches two pink crescent beams from his sickles and aimed them directly at the two Rookies, who were able to evade in time, with Falcomon disappearing.
Falcomon: Firecracker Smokescreen!
Falcomon reappeared from behind and launched several bamboo cylinders at Snimon. They exploded on contact, releasing a smokescreen and temporally blinding Snimon.
Falcomon turned to Coronamon and shouted.
Falcomon: Now's your chance! Run!
Coronamon gave a reluctant nod and ran off. But then turned around and saw Falcomon get attacked from behind by Snimon, who got out of the smokescreen.
Coronamon: Falcomon! What am I going to do? I can't abandon Falcomon, not after all that he's done for me! But I have to get to the Sacred Castle!
Falcomon flew up and tried a different attack.
Falcomon: Ninja Blade!
He threw multiple shuriken at Snimon, but he knocked them aside with his blades.
Snimon: Your pathetic attacks won't harm me you weak Rookie. Twin Sickle!
Falcomon was able to avoid the attacks again, and threw more shuriken at Snimon. Instead of blocking them, Snimon flew over them and Falcomon, and was flying towards Coronamon.
Snimon: If I can't take you down Falcomon, then I'll just have to settle for your little friend! Sickle Weasel!
Coronamon tried to run away, but knew that he could not evade the attack in time. He closed his eyes and waited for the attack to hit, but did not feel the attack make contact. He opened his eyes and saw Falcomon shielding him from the attack.
Coronamon: Falcomon! Why… why did you save me from that attack?
Falcomon (turned his head weakly): Because you're my friend Coronamon and this is what friends do for each other. (Falls on his knees before collapsing on the ground)
Snimon: He should have saved himself instead of protecting a weakling like you. I had orders to bring you two back alive but, instead I'll eliminate you right now!
Coronamon (thinking): No, I can't let it end this way. Falcomon risked everything to try and protect me.
Coronamon gets up and faces Snimon.
Coronamon: That's why I'm going to protect him!
Snimon: Let's see you try you fool! (Charges at Coronamon)
Coronamon: I'm not afraid to stand up to you anymore!
Coronamon roars a mighty roar that forced Snimon to stop. Behind Coronamon was a silhouette of a large red lion. The lion let out a mighty roar as well that seemed to push Snimon back. A small circle then formed around them and started sucking them into it, acting like a gate.
Snimon: Wha… What have you done?
Coronamon didn't answer him, but was aware that they were being sucked in. He made sure that Falcomon was still with him so they wouldn't get separated into wherever their going too.
Scene Change
A giant portal appeared in the sky of the city. Everyone within the vicinity took notice of it and was unsure of what it was. Taka and Ritchie also watched to portal.
Ritchie: What is that?
Taka: I don't know but it doesn't look good.
Taka then saw something coming out of the portal. He could see a small lion carrying a falcon, and a really big mantis. The lion jumped down from the portal and landed on the street while the mantis flew down. Both of them were looking around their surroundings, unsure of what just happened.
Taka: Are those… animals?
Ritchie: Can we see them, can we see them?
Taka: No Ritchie! We don't know what they are so we should head home now!
Ritchie: Please Taka! Just for a minute!
Taka gave out a sigh a replied.
Taka: Fine, but only for a minute. Then we get out of there. Let's go!
Scene Change
On an airplane heading to New York, Kennan and Kristy were talking to each other during the long flight. Right when Kennan was about to say something else, a beeping could be heard from his pocket.
Kristy: Is that your phone Kennan?
Kennan reached into his pocket, but was surprised to see it was something that was beeping.
Kennan: No... It's my Digivice.
Kristy: What! You still have that?
Kennan (nodded his head): Yeah. I keep it with me in memory of Falcomon. But it's glowing.
Kristy: Why would it be glowing?
Kennan: I don't know, but I have a feeling we'll find out once we land.
Scene Change
Taka and Ritchie made to the scene of where the creatures landed. Once they got there, they were shocked to see the lion fighting the mantis, as a fireball came out of a jewel on its forehead. They heard it shout:
Coronamon: Corona Flame!
The fireball came right at the mantis and hit it dead on. But the mantis was still standing.
Snimon: I can't believe a mere Rookie did that much damage to me with one hit.
Coronamon: Well get used to it because I'm taking you down!
Ritchie was amazed at watching the battle as the lion fired another fireball, but the mantis countered with two purple energy blades.
Ritchie: This is so cool! Right Taka?
Unlike Ritchie, Taka wasn't enjoying the fight. He wasn't scared either. He was staring intently at the two creatures, and then his gaze shifted to the falcon, who was unconscious.
Taka: Ritchie, I want you to stay here!
Ritchie: But where are you going?
Taka: I'm going to try and get that bird out of the way. He looks hurt and from what I can tell that lion won't be able to hold off that mantis for long.
Ritchie: But what if you get hurt! You don't even know if that falcon is friendly or not!
Taka: I guess I'm just too nice. (Runs into the battlefield)
Ritchie: Taka!
Taka ignored Ritchie and ran straight for the falcon. He put on his rollerblades and skated for the falcon, avoiding any debris from the site.
The lion ran up to the mantis before he was in close-range.
Coronamon: Coro-Knuckle!
The lion throws multiple flame infused punches at the mantis, making the mantis crash into a building. When the lion got some distance, he noticed Taka approaching the fallen falcon. The lion ran as fast as he could to reach his fallen comrade first.
Right when Taka was about ten feet away from the falcon, the lion blocked him from going any further.
Coronamon: Stop! If you come any closer I'll-I'll
Coronamon was never good with making threats, but Taka stopped preceding any further when he heard him spoke.
Taka: Wait, you can talk?
Coronamon: Of course I can! Now tell me why you were going after Falcomon!
Taka (points at Falcomon): If you're talking about the falcon, I was just trying to get him to safety so he wouldn't get hurt!
Coronamon: Liar! You were just trying to take him away from me, aren't you!
Taka: No! I swear I was just trying to help- uh what's your name?
Digimon Data Screen appears
Coronamon: If you must know human, my name is Coronamon. I'm a Rookie Beast-Type Digimon. I was born from solar data, so I have the power over fire attacks. I'm good at punching my enemy's with an energetic fist that I call my Coro-Knuckle attack.
Digimon Data Screen Disappears
Taka: What's a Digim-?
Before Taka could finish Snimon rose from the rubble and fired a Twin Sickle attack at the human and two Digimon. Taka was the only who could react in time.
Taka: Get down! (Pushes Coronamon down)
They avoided the attack, but Snimon kept sending more after them. Taka picked up Coronamon and Falcomon and skated behind some debris, having it act as a temporarily shield.
Coronamon: You actually saved us. Why?
Taka: I guess I'm just too nice. By the way, the names' Takashi Brookes, but call me Taka.
Coronamon: Well… Thanks for saving us.
Taka: No prob, but whom or what is that thing?
Digimon Data Screen Appears
Coronamon: Snimon is a Champion Insectoid type Digimon. He was originally a Virus Hunter, before he joined the Dark Army, and now hunts any Digimon that opposes him using his Twin Sickle attack.
Digimon Data Screen Disappears
Snimon: Come out; come out, wherever you are!
Taka: Man it had to be a giant bug. Insects freak me out.
Coronamon: Well this insect won't stop attacking until he destroys us.
Coronamon was thinking about turning himself in. If he tells Snimon that Falcomon's data broke apart, then he would be able to spare Falcomon, and Taka, from any further danger. Right when he was about to say it Taka spoke up.
Taka: Well then, we'll have to find some way to get rid of it.
Coronamon was shocked to hear Taka say that. His life was already in enough danger as it is, yet he's willing to risk his life to help him.
Coronamon: Why would you help us? Don't you want to get away from here and save yourself?
Taka: I do want to get out, but I could never live with myself if I abandoned you and your friend. Even if it's not much, the least I can do is provide a distraction so you can get him from behind.
Coronamon was speechless at that Taka was still willing to help him. Tears started forming in his eyes as he started sobbing, which did not go unnoticed by Taka.
Taka: Hey, you okay?
Coronamon (sobbing): No I'm not! If I can't protect Falcomon, then what are the odds I can protect you? Yet you're still willing to help me, a weakling!
Taka could not help but feel sorry that he was always considered weak. He knows what he's going through, as he felt the same way when he was a kid, but his mother was always able to say something that inspired him to this day. He places a hand on Coronamon and kneels down to his eye level.
Taka: Listen, no matter what you, or anyone else, think's you are not a weakling. Everyone starts out weak, but with enough determination and never giving up, you can accomplish many things. Never forget that.
This got Coronamon to stop crying as he looked up at Taka. Before anything could be said, a moaning could ebb heard below them. They looked down and saw Falcomon waking up.
Coronamon: Falcomon! You're alive. (Hugs Falcomon)
Falcomon: Yes but I won't be for any longer if I can't breathe.
Coronamon let's go and smiles sheepishly before Falcomon looked around him, and saw Taka.
Falcomon: Are we in the human world?
Taka: Yes you are. Welcome to the human world. Population a billion.
Coronamon and Falcomon looked at Taka confused from that comment.
Taka: That was a joke; you know to lighten the mood.
Falcomon: Well this isn't the time for jokes. Anyway Coronamon how did we get to the human world?
Coronamon: I don't know. We went through some kind of portal and landed right here.
Falcomon (turns to Taka): And you would be?
Taka: Taka, the guy who saved your life while you were knocked out.
Falcomon: Thank you for that Taka.
Taka: No sweat. So you think you help us fight Snimon?
Falcomon: What? Snimon is here?
Coronamon: Yeah. He was sucked in too.
Falcomon: Well then let's go. (Tries to get up but falls down.)
Taka: You're in no condition to fight birdbrain.
Falcomon: Then what about Snimon?
Taka: Don't worry. Coronamon and I will take care of him. (Turns to Coronamon) Right?
Coronamon (nods): Yes. We'll fight together.
Taka and Coronamon: AS ONE!
Suddenly Taka's backpack starts glowing a bright white light. Taka unzips his backpack; to find the box he received from Wisemon to be the source of the glowing.
Coronamon: What is that?
Taka: We're about to find out.
He opened the box and found a red and black device. It was circle shaped at the top but oval shaped at the bottom. There were several buttons on it and a square screen. Taka then noticed his right hand glowing with red data. He and Coronamon looked at it in amazement. While Falcomon looked at it with a surprise look.
Falcomon: It that what I think it is? A Digivice and a DNA Charge?
Taka and Coronamon: Digivice? DNA Charge?
Before anymore could be said Snimon was heading for their direction, as he saw the light from earlier and followed it.
Snimon: So this is where you were? I have you know.
Seeing Snimon on his way, Falcomon quickly turned to Taka.
Taka: There's not enough time! Quickly use your Digivice to digivolve Coronamon!
Taka: How?
Falcomon: Place your right hand on your Digivice then thrust it towards Coronamon, while saying DNA Charge!
Snimon: Say your prayers!
Taka stands up and looks at Coronamon.
Taka: Willing to give this a try?
Coronamon also stood up and gave him a determined nod.
Coronamon: You bet!
The Digivolution sequence begins.
Taka: DNA…Charge! He thrusted his digivice toward the screen.
Coronamon: Coronamon Digivolve too!
Coronamon's data was replaced by new data. He became a red lion. He had a yellow mane; two wings were hidden behind it. He wore a helmet that had fire sprouting out of the forehead, and his ears. He also had gauntlets around his wrists and his hind legs, where fire was also burning.
Firamon: Firamon!
Taka's digivice beep and he pointed it towards the new Digimon.
Digimon Data Screen Appears
Taka: Firamon, a Beast Digimon resembling a flying lion. It is Coronamon's Champion form and through digivolution has gained flight and speed. His Flame Dive attack is an attack to watch out for. He is also known as the "Lion Flying in the Sky".
Digimon Data Screen Disappears
Taka: Whoa! This is so cool!
Snimon stopped in mid-flight when he saw the new Digimon.
Snimon: You were able to digivolve? How is this possible?
Firamon: How? Because Taka and I are now fighting as one, and with our combined strength we'll defeat you.
Snimon (laughs): Hahaha. Go ahead and try. You may have digivolved but you're still no match for me!
Firamon: Then hit me with your best shot!
Snimon: With pleasure! Twin Sickle!
Snimon launched his two beams and they hit Firamon, but have appeared to have done no damage him.
Firamon (mockingly): That the best you got?
Snimon: Fine! You've forced me to use my strongest attack! Ultimate Twin Sickles!
A more powerful version of the twin sickles was launched, with four pink crescent beams. They all hit Firamon, causing some smoke from the impact to surround him.
Snimon: How do you like that? This is an upgraded version of my Twin Sickles! Not even Ultimates can withstand this attack!
As the smoke cleared Firamon appeared, once again unharmed, much to the shock of Snimon, and to the relief of Taka and Falcomon.
Falcomon: My word, he's stronger than ever!
Taka: Yeah… and to think I helped him get that strong.
Firamon: Time for me to end this! Flame Dive!
Firamon used his wings and flew in the sky. He then covers his whole body with fire and comes down quickly from the sky to tackle. The attack lands a direct hit on Snimon, who gave one final shriek before being deleted, then turned into a Digi-egg. Firamon dedigivolved soon afterwards.
Taka and Falcomon ran up to check on Coronamon, who was now on his knees panting.
Coronamon: I can't believe I won. I actually won!
Taka ran up to Coronamon, picked him up and gave him a big hug.
Taka: That was awesome! The way you took out that with one attack! I knew you could do!
Coronamon: Thanks Taka, but could you let me down now!
Taka did as he was asked and let Coronamon down.
Falcomon: That was quite the battle my friend.
Coronamon: Thanks, but I couldn't have done it without Taka.
Taka: What are you saying? This was a team effort here.
Coronamon (smiles): You're right, though I put more effort in it than you did!
They all laughed at that comment, until Snimon's Digi-egg started floating towards them. It then went into Taka's digivice and showed Snimon's picture saying "Digimon Obtained!"
Taka was confused by what happen until he saw something else from the red box. It was rectangle in shape, and was colored like his digivice. It had a small screen in the middle, and a small slot. It also had a strap that could attach itself to the left arm.
Taka: What is this?
Falcomon: I don't know. I've never seen that before in my life.
Coronamon: Same here.
Ritchie: Taka! Taka! Where are you?
Taka and the two digimon turned around to see Ritchie walking through the site of the battle, with both of his hands cupped together.
Taka: Oh no! I almost forgot about Ritchie!
Falcomon and Coronamon: Ritchie?
Taka: My younger brother. You guys have to hide somewhere.
Falcomon: Then point your digivice at Coronamon and he'll be transferred in there.
Taka did as instructed as Coronamon and Falcomon were sucked in. They were shown in on the screen Taka's digivice.
Taka: That's pretty convenient. How does it feel?
Coronamon: Kind of roomie.
Falcomon: Yes it does. But I thought the digivice could only hold one digimon.
Taka: Figure that out later. Right I gotta get Ritchie home!
Taka took the small device out of the box and placed the box in his backpack and the device in his pocket.
Ritchie sees Taka coming from one of the buildings and runs over to him.
Ritchie: Taka! Are you okay? Where are those creatures? Did you save that falcon?
Taka: So down Ritchie. I'm fine, the creatures disappeared, and the falcon made out alive.
Ritchie: Where did they go?
Taka: Who knows, but let's get home before something else happens.
Meanwhile, up on a roof where the battle could be seen, one person was shown watching the entire fight. He had blonde hair with a grey cap covering it, grey t-shirt and black pants. He had a smirk on his face from watching the battle.
"Well it looks like the tournament is going to have some tough competitors. You may have one this battle kid, but there are many more to come." He said as he pulled out a digivice like Taka's only grey and black. "And when the time comes the true tamer shall be chosen.
He pointed his digivice in front of him, and a portal appeared. He walked through it and the portal closed right after.
Scene Change
Back in the cave where all those monsters were, Meramon is shown walking towards a large door, guarded by two knight looking monsters. Meramon opened the door and walked into a large inner sanctum. There, in the middle of it was a shadowed figure sitting on a throne. Meramon bowed before him.
Meramon: My lord, it appears that Snimon has been defeated.
"How is that possible?"
Meramon: We do not know sir, but there's more.
"Go on"
Meramon: When Snimon's energy signature, he and the two other digimon weren't in the Digital World anymore.
"If they weren't in the Digital World then where were they last located?"
Meramon (grimly): The Human World.
"The human world you say?" The figure got up from his throne and was no longer shadowed out. He was a tall mysterious figure wearing a red cloak, had horn on the cloak side by side, black wings, a medallion on his neck and soulless sapphire eyes.
"This could be used to our advantage. You are dismissed for now Meramon!"
Meramon: As you wish, Lord Daemon. (Meramon leaves)
After Meramon left the room Daemon got up from his throne and looked outside of his window, an evil smirk on his hidden face.
Daemon: If Snimon was really sent to the human world, and defeated by who I think defeated him, then the prophecy has begun. Soon all of the digital world and the human will be under my rule. Muhahahahahahaha.
How do you like it? This is the first of one of many chapters. I hope to make more just like this one, but that depends if you reviewers like it. I know there are several plot hoes here but they will be filled very soon. Review.
