Chapter 2:
Kari Kamiya was sitting on a bench at a park with Takeru 'TK' Takaishi. The duo had gone to watch the movies and was now watching their digimons, Gatomon and Patamon, playing in the field in front of them. Digimons were now known by the public, because of this they now can let their digimons wonder freely.
Suddenly Kari and TK's D-Terminals started beeping. They opened their D-Terminals and were shocked by what it reads.
'Guys, I'm receiving and emergency beacon from Gennai's place. Come to the computer lab immediately
-Izzy'
Kari and TK were confused by what it could be but they knew if it was an emergency coming from Gennai then it had to be important. They called their partners to them as they got off the bench.
"What's wrong TK?" Patamon asks flew to his usual spot, on top of TK's head.
"Izzy sent us a message saying that something had happened at Gennai's house" TK explained as the four head to Odaiba Elementary.
A moment later, they arrived at Odaiba Elementary and head for the computer room. Once there, TK open the lab door. Inside, all the members of the digidestined except for Davis was waiting for them.
"Hey guys" TK said walking in.
Kari closed the door after entering and as she examines everyone in the room, she notices that Davis is not there. "Hey, where's Davis?" Kari asks everyone.
Everyone looked at each other, just noticing that the leader of the second generation is missing. "I don't know. He should've gotten my message, since I sent it to everyone here" said a red haired boy, Izzy from in front of a computer.
"Weird, he always comes to our meetings, especially if it was an emergency" Tai said his hand cupping his face.
"This is unbelievable, even in an emergency he's late. I say we just go without him! That'll teach him to be late!" Yolie yelled in frustration.
"I have to agree with Yolie on this one. Gennai needs us and can't let him wait too long" TK said.
"I guess you're right, and Davis can just use the Digi-port to catch up with us when he gets here" Izzy reasoned. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement and walk up to the computer Izzy was using.
"Digi-port Open!" they yelled in unison and they were all sucked into the computer.
The group arrived outside the lake that hid Gennai's house but to their surprise, the staircase that led to the house below was still revealed when it should have been hidden. This worried the first generation of digidestined, as the whole group went down the steps. When they got to the bottom, they were shocked and horrified by what they saw.
Parts of the walls were destroyed beyond repair and the furniture was either broken into pieces or burned to a crisps.
"What happened?" Sora gasps as the group slowly walk into the center of the living area.
Suddenly they heard a pain-filled groan coming from another room. The digidestind walk into the room and some of them were about to puke from disgust. The wall and furniture in that room were just like the previous room except worse. The computers that filled the room were destroyed, burned, pulled out of its original position or thrown around the room but almost none were working. But what the scene even more horrifying, there was blood covering the floor, walls and computers.
Another groan brought the group out of their stupor and they notice something getting up from one of the functioning computers. When they got closer, the digidestinds saw that it was Gennai.
"Gennai!" they exclaimed grouping around the man.
Gennai turned around and his appearance brought another wave of shock running through the digidestinds. The left side of his face was burned heavily and blood was running down the right side of his head. His robe had slashes and burns here and there and it was soaked with his blood. Gennai was also holding his right shoulder with his left hand as his right arm just hangs lifelessly.
"Oh my god…" Sora gasps covering her mouth with her hand. TK covered Cody's eyes to prevent him from watching the horror in front of him. Mimi, who had just moved back to Japan, was on the verge of tears and was cling to Matt, who looked away from the sight. Joe looked like he was about puke were he stood and Izzy just stand, staring with his mouth opened. Yolie hugged her boyfriend for comfort; while Ken stared with widen eyes. Willis, who had transferred to Japan, took a few steps back, taken back by what he saw. Meanwhile Kari hid behind her brother, terrified.
"You… have… arrived… good…" Gennai said between jagged breathes. "Children… there is… a new… evil… he is… after… the… Destiny… Stones… don't let… him… destroy… them…" he continued before stumbling a bit from exhaustion.
"New evil? Gennai, what are you talking about? Who did this to you?" Tai asks.
"The one… who… did… this… is…" the digital man trailed off before falling onto his knees and landing face first onto the floor.
"Gennai!" the digidestind cried as the man began to dissolve into data particles. The group was in tears as the last specs of data that was once their friend flies away, never to be seen again.
Tai slammed his fist on the table next to him, startling everyone. "We have to get back at the guy who did this… No matter what it takes" Tai said with tears in his eyes and a serious look on his face.
Everyone nodded their head in agreement, Gennai was their friend and they were going to make sure that his killer was brought to justice.
The next day, the digidestinds were having a meeting at the school computer lab. Everyone except Davis came to the meeting.
"Where is Davis?! This is a serious meeting and he's nowhere to be found!" Yolie shouted in anger.
"Yeah, that guy is really getting on my nerves!" Matt joins in.
"Relax guys, let's do the meeting then we can go at Davis' house and chew him out for not coming" Tai said, also annoyed by Davis not showing up.
"Okay… As you know from what Gennai told us yesterday, this new bad guy we're up against is looking for the Destiny Stones" Izzy said. Everyone nodded their heads, remembering the horror they saw yesterday. "Then it means whoever this guy is must be trying something big, MaloMyotismon big" he continued while typing on his computer.
"That means we can't let this guy beat us like BlackWargreymon did in the past" Tai said.
"We won't, but if only I can get my hands on that guy" TK said angrily.
Suddenly the meeting was cut short when they heard a beeping noise. "Guys the Digital World is under attack!" Izzy said turning the computer monitor towards the group and pointing to an area that had a red squre on it.
"That's File Island! Some of our friends are there!" TK yelled.
"Let's go!" Tai said and everyone went up to the monitor and points their digivice at it.
Everyone got sucked into the computer and came out of the TV set in the Digital World. They were in the jungle. The group could hear explosion near them and ran there as fast as they could.
When they arrived at the origin, in front of them was Davis in Digiegg of Darkness form and a giant yellow lion with orange strips and long fangs were standing on a destroyed part of the forest.
"What's wrong kitty? You're said to be the most powerful digimon on this island. Surely you can defeat a creature liked me" Davis taunted with his long demon claws stretched to his side.
The digidestind felt chills run through their spines from hearing Davis' voice. Ken, Kari and TK were trembling, because of their sensitivity towards darkness.
"Howling Crusher" the lion, SaberLeomon yelled as he pounced at Davis.
Davis just huffed at the attack as he moved his right claw from being outstretched at his side to grabbing hold of the lion digimon neck before he could react. He then slammed SaberLeomon to the ground, causing a hole in it in the process.
The lion could barely open his eyes as Davis turns him with his foot, so they can face each other. "Now… Where are the Destiny Stones?" Davis asks non-chantingly.
"Don't do this… You were your friend… Don't let darkness consume you Da-" SaberLeomon said before being cut off by Davis.
"Don't you dare call me that! My name is now MagnaDevimon! And we were never friends!" MagnaDevimon yelled as he pulled his claw back, getting ready to strike.
"SaberLeomon!" the digidestind cried as they and their digimon ran out of the forest.
MagnaDevimon turned his head towards the source of the voices. When he saw his 'friends' running towards them, he turn his head back towards SaberLeomon and said "Looks like we have an audience. Let's give them a show they will never forget. Chaos Claw!". MagnaDevimon's claw became shrouded by a dark purple mist like aura and he drives it straight through the lion and into the ground.
"NO!" the group cried as SaberLeomon slowly turns into data and the demon digimon pull out his right claw.
"You'll pay for that!" TK yelled.
"Patamon digivolves to… Angemon!"
Angemon flew in front of MagnaDevimon and used his Hand of Fate on the demon. Unfortunately, it did nothing him.
MagnaDevimon laughed maniacally at this and said "What did you think that attack was going to do, hmm? I'm far stronger than that weakly Devimon; your attack didn't even tickle".
Angemon flew back a bit, shocked by the outcome while the other digimon and their partners stared with disbelief.
"Oh, how I like those dumbfounded looks you all have but sadly for me, I'm not in the mood to doom you all… So you'll live for another day" MagnaDevimon said before stretching out his wing and taking to the skies.
"I think we have a problem" Tai said as they watch the demon fly away.
