There is a way to define the word hero. That would be a person who
risks his or her life to save people from peril without having to think
twice about it. A hero is someone who can easily judge what is right and
what is wrong, and knows how to make wrongs right. Heroes are sparse among
the masses but a saving grace when around.
Next we have the word villain. A villain is not a hero by any means... in fact a villain is the opposite. Villains do not care whom they harm in their quests for whatever they desire... money, power, etc. A lot more villains exist in the world than heroes and there are always more appearing day by day.
Now lets say we have a group of heroes who also have partners. Sidekicks if you will. These sidekicks are called Digimon; wondrous creatures from another world who have incredible fighting power and the ability to increase their strength by changing their form.
Our heroes and their sidekicks saved the universe from an impending doom called the Shadow, and restored everything to its original harmonious state. And although they faced villains throughout their quest, none of them really were on the same level as the heroes. None of them thought the same. None of them had the same lifestyle. None of them were normal people like the heroes.
But that may not last much longer. For our heroes have people watching them...
"What is the project on the Digimon experiment?"
Four people sat enshrouded by darkness around a table in a secret room. The only light in the room was given off by a flickering computer monitor. One man set a cigar down on an ashtray and folded his hands together, looking at his colleagues. He spoke in calm, collective voice.
"Gentlemen... let us not get restless. It has been a year since the Digimon left our world... and while most people's memories were erased of them, thankfully we have remembered and been able to carry on our research in secret."
A skinnier man with a raspier voice slammed his fist down on the table, annoyed.
"We know that! Just tell us the results of the project! I didn't go through all the trouble of extracting data from that kid's D-Volver for nothing! Do we have our own now?!"
"Yes we do." answered the calm-voiced man. "But unfortunately we are unable to use them."
"Why?"
"We are too old, already learned. We needed younger, untapped minds to carry our Dark D-Volvers."
"So you're saying we'll make some kids do our work for us?"
"Exactly. They may be hard to control at first, but once under the power of our Dark D-Volvers their minds will begin to decay until they are bent only on destroying the children holding the Light D-Volvers."
"And once that is accomplished, the barrier on the world will be broken and we will be able to travel to the world of Digimon and harness all of their power!" added a man with a deep voice.
"Do you have the children chosen yet?" asked the fourth and final man, who had a very strong and commanding voice. The calm man shook his head.
"No. You work closely with children, do you not? Spy on our target: Lee Trainer."
"Why?" asked the raspy voiced man. "I know Lee Trainer well, but what should I do with him?"
"Find people close to him and his other chosen friends. Preferably people from his college. With them working in the same vicinity as our own chosen children, it won't be long before they destroy each other and weaken the barrier."
"Give me the names of the others."
"Sam Chambers, Allison Williams, Earnest Lightwind, Arik Pearson, Nathan Klentz and James Willington. Make sure they're all being watched. With our threat, their partners are sure to return to attempt to protect them."
"We'll just have to make sure our Digimon are stronger. Remember, children with troubled lives are easier to manipulate than your average child."
"I won't fail. I'll choose well."
The man with the commanding voice and the man with the raspy voice got up and left the room. The deep voiced man looked at the calm man, who was obviously their leader.
"How goes Projects B and C...?"
"Excellent. Once the barriers are weakened and projects B and C go through... we'll be able to steal a veritable army of Digimon from Trinity Server to crush this pathetic world."
"We are far too old to fight ourselves though... but..."
"But...?"
"I've been doing extensive testing, and have found out something interesting. I'll let you in on it when I'm sure."
The deep voiced man got up and left as well. The calm man reached for his cigar again.
"Trainer and his friends won't know what hit them... until they're laying cold and dead on the floor of our laboratory with their partners being transformed into mindless killing machines... or maybe it won't come to that..."
The man thought to himself for a second and chuckled.
"Nah... of course it will come to that. My dark Chosen will be unstoppable!"
He switched off the computer monitor and his sinister laugh faded with the darkness...
