DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN DIGIMON
Journal Entry 28th Day of the First Month, of Lord Yggdrasil
I think I'm going crazy actually listening to that old coots advice. Write in a journal he says, it will help you out remember things he says. Bah! That old far is a crazy man who smells of booze and dirt. But I can't really hate him. He's been the one who's been helping since I've arrived in this awful world in which I had no clue about.
Two years to this day I've lived here, two years away from home, two years since I was I went on that damn mission that landed me here in this predicament. Two years without my family and friends. It has been a long time, longest time since I've been away from home. Not even my first time in the Digital World was that long.
The only thing I have left from that world and MY own, are my goggles and my partner and best friend, Agumon. If anything he's the only one who had kept me sane throughout our entire time here, wherever it is we're at. No, I can't say that. I forgot that I can finally call it by it's true name. It took awhile since I loathed this place with a passion ever since I came here, but that changed as well.
This world is called Pantheon. Whoever thought of that name was sure full of themselves, I mean seriously? Pantheon? I may suck at all things learning and all that type of stuffs, but I was into mythology. Whoever though of this wanted to consider the people or who ever ran the world gods. Egotistical much? Whatever. The world, as what people know it, is made of lots a few continents. Five major ones and a few smaller ones. The five big places have these big kingdoms to go along with them, along with smaller towns and cities. To the North there is the Kingdom of the Dusk, to the West there's the Empire of the Daybreak, to the East there's the Nation of Seas, finally to the South there is the Kingdom of Vermillion. In the middle continent there is the final kingdom: The Kingdom of Twilight. Flashy names aren't they? It feels like I'm back in the medieval times where kings and emperors ruled the world, but here its real.
From what I've learned during my stay in this world is that everyone here is in constant war against one another. It's not a pretty sight. I saw some battles before. The digimon were deleted and the humans...they're probably in a better place now. What I can't believe is that the made a school to teach these kids on how to go to war against each other! That is one of the worst ideas I've ever heard. Sadly though it makes sense. People need to fight in this war, or else a lot more people will die, but does that justify losing one family member? Families are destroyed because of this stupid war. Twilight decided to stay neutral throughout the entire thing, so there less bloodshed, but still people are dying there as well. The war seeps over onto this continent as well, since it is the largest battle grounds the nations have in between all of them.
Man, I need to get to a less mopey subject. Uh...What should I write about? Well, let's start where I live. I live in a small village in the central continent called Link. It's relatively close to the Castle of Twilight, but is close to some battle fields as well. Agumon and I live with an old man, we call him Lan, as well as partner Fridgimon. We're not the only ones here though. Lan takes care of orphans on the street. Most of those kids see me as an older brother, which in turn make me miss Kari. I wonder how she's doing? And going with that, how about everyone else?
I'm getting sidetracked, back to how my life here is. Let's see what else do I have to say? Oh yeah! Lan had taught me how to fight. That was pretty cool. I learned how to box and wrestle, as well as use a sword. I also learned how to sail a boat, ride a horse, hunting for food, COOKING that food. I can't remember all of what I had learned seeing as I use them almost daily to survive sometimes.
They have ships that fly too. They are literally ships with either a balloon or a propeller to fuel them. So it's like our airplanes, but so old school. I heard that some digimon help to power it sometimes. Though I wonder, what other type of technology is here because some digimon are more advanced tech-wise than others. Like Datamon...
I found out that digimon can't digivolve here. Now that was a shocker. I meant they were BORN as a mega or ultimate. Depending on where your digimon was determine how you stood amongst the people. The stronger the digimon the higher nobility you are. Most of the peasants usually only have rookies, in-training or fresh so they aren't even worth any of the Kingdom's time, except for foot soldiers...or cannon fodder. That's not the biggest shocking thing though. As I spent more time here, I found something rather disturbing. All of my family and friends are here, but not really. You get what I mean? Oh wait you don't, you're just a dumb journal I'm writing in. Man I have to stop talking to myself when I write. But yeah, my family and friend's have doubles here. Though I haven't spoken to any of them because THEY ARE ALL ROYALTY! I can't get near them with a ten foot pole or the freaking guards will be after my ass. Though they all have different names here. Izzy was called Koushiro, Joe was Jou, Matt was Yamato...and a whole bunch of other people.
At least Sora and Mimi kept their names. I found out that my sister's double is called Princess Hikari of the Noble Kingdom of Light. A sister or so of the main Kingdom of Twilight. I accidentally found that out when I bumped into her. Her eyes widened and thought I was someone she knows, or rather knew. She had her guards come after me so I had to run. When I asked Lan about it, he told me that I looked like the Princess' old boyfriend, Taichi. Now that sent a nasty shiver down my spine. The Tai here wasn't even related to her and dated my sister's look alike...oh god I think I'm going to puke just thinking about that again. Ugh...back on track. When I asked Lan where this Taichi guy was, the old man told me that he died. Died as the "Hero of the New Age." That his partner and a Mega of unknown origin had stopped the previous war a few years back. Giving the world peace for two years. I-
"Tai!" a voice shouted. A boy with wild bushy brown hair looked up from the table he was sitting at writing. A candle was his only source of light. He was wearing a brown tunic underneath a grey vest. Brown pants adorned his legs, as well as muddy brown boots. His chestnut eyes was looking at his partner, a four foot orange lizard with green eyes. Three white claws on both his arms and his feet. The boy named Tai, smiled at his partner.
"Is it time to go already Agumon?" Tai asked.
"Yeah, the festival is about to start now Tai," Agumon told him.
"Give me a moment to finish this entry and let's go." Agumon nodded and Tai turned back to his journal.
Well, due to my partner's little interruptions I had totally forgotten what I was going to say. Before I go I'll just say that I will find my way home, but until then I might as well live my life here.
Tai Kamiya
Closing the journal Tai stood up, and placed it inside a drawer in the room next to his bed. Walking over to a chair Tai took a brown cloak and tied it around his neck. Putting up the hood he walked next to his partner, now standing a foot and a half taller than it. "Let's go buddy. This festival should be good. Agumon nodded and they stepped out of the room and into the world.
