"Marukimon left a message"

"what is it?"

"due to the recent troubles in the digital world our policies of sending Digimon back as digieggs is currently the best thing for now, but he hopes that we will find a better solution in the future"

"we'll never find a solution that makes him happy"

"we're just going to have to do our best now won't we"

"say commander Sampson, who were they talking about earlier?"

"her name was Sarina, and she was part of the Commanders that actually formed DATS"

(in shock) "say what?"

(nods his head) "it's true, but that's all I'm going to say about her"

later that night all four of them were trying to find research on Sarina when they were busted

"I don't get it everything about her is classified and I don't know why"

suddenly the door opens up and the eleven senior commanders walk in and all four of them stand up and salute

"Commanders what are you doing here?"

"we figured you four would be trying to find out information about Sarina so we decided to stay longer then normal just in case and our d-terminals alerted us to the fact that you were trying to find her file"

"emphasis on the word trying, everything about her seems to be classified, including her status change"

TK was the one to take this one on considering the fact that he was the last one to see Sarina in the first place. Not to mention they had decided that for this conversation he would be the spokesperson for the group

(sighs) "first of all you should all know this subject is very hard on the eleven of us but more so me because I was the last one to see Sarina alive, second of all I ask you not to make any comments or judge us until we finish our story"

"we understand"

"well it was just after we started DATS and about ten years, maybe a little longer since we had defeated MaloMyotismon. We suddenly detected some abnormal readings coming from the digital world so the twelve of us went to check things out and make sure the Digimon were OK" (shakes his head) "we had no idea of what would happen that day"

fifteen years earlier

"I still don't get why some rookies couldn't have done this Sarina"

"simple Tai, because DATS is just getting started so there aren't that many people who can come to the digital world"

"and why did all twelve of us have to come anyways?"

"easy Davis, one everyone has been wanting to see your Digimon partners for a bit and for another it's a huge area to check out. I figured it would be faster and safer to go in groups of two"

"you have a point"

"all right then let's do it, and TK, Kari, I know you work best together since you are part of the original team as was I, but I think Kari should be with Yolie for this one"

"why can't I be with Kari?"

"enough Davis, besides I thought you had a girlfriend?"

"I do, but remember how we're on the same soccer team for the annual soccer game?"

"and you want to talk strategies don't you?"

"exactly, besides, just because I have a girlfriend doesn't mean I'm entirely over my crush"

"sorry Davis, but this is exactlywhy you're not with Kari"

"fine"

and so the team splits up according to either age group or in the case of Davis Tai made the decision for him so that they could 'talk'

"I don't envy Davis"

"oh, and have you and Tai had a talk about dating his sister?"

"yes, we did and Matt talked to Kari about the same thing about dating me"

"well you guys were part of the original digidestined"

"and they're our brothers so yeah...they have their moments"

and so they start patrolling the area to see what the problem was when suddenly there was an attack

"Angemon"

"Pyromon"

"Digivolve"

"Angemon digivolve to...MagnaAngemon"

"Pyromon digivolve to...Magnummon"

"Angel staff"

"Lava strike"

and so they continue fighting when suddenly they were attack from behind by Machinedromon and Sarina fell down a crevice along with her Digimon. Hours later the team was back together all of them having fought and also taken care of the problem when they noticed Sarina was missing

"hey TK where's Sarina?"

"she's gone Tai, she and Pyromon went down a crevice and I haven't seen them since"

"let's not declare her dead just yet, maybe she survived and will come back to us soon"

"yeah, let's not give up until we have no other option"

and so they go back to the real world and declare Sarina MIA, they also make sure to make her files classified to protect everyone
