Second Author's note of the story, this time I need to ask if the story flow is slightly choppy since I asked a digimon watching friend of mine to critic it and he said it was weird how Davis went into the digital world.

Enjoy

Back to Davis, she had just reached home when an orange light followed her into the house.

"It's the same as usual..." Davis sighed as she closed the door the same rejection and the same feeling of overwhelming sadness.

Clenching her hands, Davis felt something in her left palm, opening it to see something. "What's this?"

Davis brought it closer to her face and observed the device. It is in the shape of a phone, has a small dark screen with two buttons under it and a blue grip.

"What am I going to do with this?" Davis checked the clock in her house and saw that it was already 4pm.

"This is bad... I haven't prepared dinner yet!" Pushing aside the thoughts of the device, Davis when to her room to place it on her table before going to the kitchen.

Just as Davis started boiling the soup, her mother came home.

"Davis dear, how many times have I told you to let me cook?" Davis's mother sighed, placing her bag on the table.

Draining the noodles, Davis turned to her mother. Some flour covering her face as she smiled.

"Its okay, I want to own a noodle shop when I grow up anyways so this will be good practice."

Davis's mother placed her hand on her cheek, sighing. "Well then, I'll go shower first, try not to do everything by yourself."

Waving to her mother, Davis went back to seasoning and this time, she tried to add a little extra.

Kari and T.K. was able to enter the digital world and meet up with Tai with the help of the digi-vice's GPS.

The three of them went into a cave where the egg with the crest of courage is while Gatomon tells Kari how she lost her tail ring.

0000

Finishing the last preparations, Davis turned off the gas stove and went to her room to clean up.

'Where's Tai? It's almost 5...' Davis thought that Tai has forgotten his promise.

0000

When all of the former digi-destined tried to move the egg, they all failed one by one.

Izzy was still in the real world, trying to ease off suspicion from Yolei, until she showed him her digi-vice and Izzy started explaining.

Monochromon attacked the former digi-destined but without their digimon's ability to digi-volve, the only choice they had is to run.

Shaking her head, Davis went to focus on the new device that appeared out of thin air.

"Does this thing have a battery life?" Davis flipped it over to check if there was a place to replace the batteries.

Just Davis's luck as the screen of her computer reacted and blinded her, sending her to the digital world.

Landing awkwardly, Davis sat up and nursed her aching back, "Ouch... Where am I?"

Surveying her surroundings, Davis cautiously stood up, seeing that her clothes has changed made her lose focus for a while before a scream woke her up.

"That sounded like Kari!" Davis ran to the source at her max speed.

0000

The party containing Kari, with her twisted ankle, Tai, carrying the injured girl and T.K. who was directing the group out of monochromon's way had just passed Davis but with them fearing for their lives, completely did not notice her.

Davis was the same, just that she feared for whoever had screamed. Her digi-vice beeped and following her gut, she went into the cave of a volcano.

Inside, she spotted the same egg that the other party failed to remove. Davis wrapped her hands around it and pulled.

The egg came off with a pop and an orange light shone, revealing a small, blue dragon.

"You're here, you're finally here! I've waited a long time to meet you Davis!" The blue dragon jumped around the confused girl.

"U-Umm, who are you?" Davis tilted her head as the dragon stopped in front of her.

"Veemon's the name, and protecting you is my game!" Veemon said shaking Davis's hand rapidly.

Laughing, Davis smiled, "Well then, Veemon, our first job is to save whoever screamed earlier."

Veemon nodded and led Davis out, to the sight of an angry monochromon.

"Oh no, hi there, mister dinosaur... Run Davis!" Veemon pushed Davis out of the way of a rampaging Digimon.

"Veemon, are you okay?" Veemon gave Davis a smile, taking her hand and running.

"Davis, you have to armour digi-volve me." Veemon's words confused Davis.

"And how am I supposed to do that?!" Shouting while having an angry creature behind was not a good idea as monochromon sped up.

"You've got to have courage, come on Davis, just push some out." Veemon stopped as monochromon rounded in front of them.

"Courage... Why is it the one thing I don't have?!" Davis tried to shake the egg awake while screaming.

Veemon noticed Davis's hesitance and let go of her hand, "Don't worry Davis, I'll protect you."

Davis looked shocked, "No, Veemon, come back!" Veemon ran headfirst into a battle with monochromon.

0000

Tears streaked her cheeks as she saw Veemon get pummelled to the ground.

"Courage... Please, if that's what you need, I'll do it. Just, please save Veemon!" Davis shouted the last part and another glow from the egg.

Veemon felt power rushing through him, along with the feelings of wanting to protect from Davis which made him feel appreciated.

"Veemon digi-volve too... Flamedramon the fire of courage!"

Now outfitted with new armour, Veemon felt better than ever.

"Veemon, you're taller..." Veemon deadpanned at Davis, really expecting her to have said something else.

"Couldn't you just say I look cooler or 'Wow Veemon you are so dependable with the new claws.' Just something other than my height?!"

Davis looked away as she never really thought of that, trying to ease the frustration off Flamedramon. "Hey, at least now we match..."

Pointing out that now Veemon also had flames as the new decoration, just like Davis's new jacket.

"Okay, that's acceptable. I'll deal with monochromon, you stay back." Flamedramon got his head back into the game and got pay back for the earlier beat down.

"Wait, Flamedramon, try aiming for that belt." Davis pointed at the waist of monochromon.

Flamedramon raised a flaming fist, pausing in his attacks. "What makes you say that?"

Davis rolled her eyes, wiping the tears off her cheeks, "Well, it's because I know dinosaurs don't wear accessories."

Flamedramon nodded, "Whatever you say..." Flying to the sky he burst into flames, "Fire rocket!"

0000

The two saw the dark ring broke like glass and monochromon stopped thrashing around to instead calmly observing Davis.

"Don't look at Davis like she's food!" Flamedramon retreated to the front of Davis.

Shaking its head, monochromon turned to walk off into the forest.

"Okay... What just happened?" Flamedramon turned back into Veemon and shrugged at a questioning Davis.

"Hey, don't look at me, I might live here but I was in the tiny hole in the cave my whole life."

Sighing at her unanswered question, Davis now brought up another topic, "How am I going to get home?"

0000

So Davis went into the digital world and acted just like Tai with his 'shoot before thinking' idea, but she got Veemon anyways.

How did Davis enter the digital world without shouting "Open the digi-gate"?: To me, I have this headcannon that what you say before you enter the digital world will be the password to enter. Like a voice recognition lock or something. Especially since the digi-gate is already opened. So to me, there is no need to unlock an already open gate and besides, staying silent is better than having to shout something embarrassing.
