Digimon: The Dark Saga

Back to the Digital World

Everyone was exited to go back to the digital world. Everyone, that is, except Jeri. She had no real reason to go back. Her digimon was gone, last time she went she ended up helping the enemy, now she's afraid that she'll lead to the death of one of her friends. Her biggest worry is that she'll get Takato killed. She cared too much about him to risk his life by going with them.

"I don't think I should go with you guys. I'll just be dead weight." Jeri sounded worried. Takato knew Jeri about as well as Jeri knew him. She knew when something was wrong with him, he knew when something was wrong with her.

"What's wrong Jeri?" Jeri could hear the concern in Takato's voice.

"Without Leomon I'll just slow you guys down. I won't let myself be an open target that needs to be protected!" Jeri was almost yelling by the time she got those last words out. All of a sudden, her D-Arc started to beep. She took it out of her pocket and an image of Leomon appeared in 3D.

"L. Leomon? Is it really you?" Jeri couldn't believe it. She didn't think she'd ever get to see Leomon again.

The figure on the screen nodded. "Jeri, it is I. When a digimon is deleted, the data from that digimon is never really lost, even if it is absorbed by another digimon. Beelzemon released my data after he came back to the digital world. I then became a digi egg. After I hatched, I worked at digivolving and now I am myself again."

"I. I." Jeri was at a loss of words. She was so happy to see her partner again. "I missed you, Leomon."

"I missed you too, Jeri." You could hear the happiness in his voice. He was truly happy to see her again. "Jeri, please hurry. We need your help in the digital world. The overlord is destroying everything!"

"We're coming, Leomon! We're coming!" Jeri was exited to see her partner again.

The digimon had been fighting valiantly, but to no avail. The agents of the overlord were almost all digivolved to mega. Few were still ultimate, but not many. They tried to fight off the ultimates, but the mega's were advancing faster and faster. There was no hope, until they heard another digimon approach.

"Oh, no! Not another agent!" Growlmon was very weak by this time. He could barely keep fighting the enemies they already had.

"Fist of the Beast King!" Leomon shot his attack straight at the O on Wargreymons chest. The O dissolved and Wargreymon became his normal self.

"Leomon? Leomon!" Growlmon was all too happy to see him. They finally had a fighting chance.

"Growlmon, my old friend." Leomon seemed happy to see Growlmon as well. "It's good to see you again."

"We could use your help, Leomon. I'm glad you're here." Kyuubimon was grateful at the arrival of Leomon.

"Our tamers should be here soon." Gargomon was more serious than usual.

"I know. I already have talked to Jeri. She was happy to see me." Leomon sounded solemn. He was glad he had been given a second chance. Not only for himself, but also for Jeri.

The tamers had reached the portal to the digital world. They were ready to go back and help their partners. Ryo still couldn't look Rika in the eyes. Rika wouldn't look Ryo in the eyes either. Does Rika feel the same about me? Ryo thought as they crawled into the tunnel where the portal was. Rika and himself were the last two to go through the portal. After the others had gone through, Ryo couldn't stand it any longer.

"Rika. I. I have to talk to you." Ryo was stumbling through his words because he was so nervous.

"Can it wait. We have to go help our partners." Rika tried not to be short with him, but it just came out that way.

"Uh, yea, sure." Ryo could tell she was confused. He knew her well enough to know when she was confused and when she was mad. She always seemed mad at people when she was confused.

After there brief conversation, they entered the portal, entering the same strange place they had been the first time they had entered the digital world. Where they floated weightlessly for a minute.

"Remember, guys. Whichever way we say is down, becomes down." Takato said this half-sarcastically. He knew they probably remembered their first experience with this place.

"That direction seems to go toward the digital world. Let's go that way." Henry had no sooner said that when they started to fall in that direction.

After they had landed, they saw a battle going on in the distance. Everyone was hopeful, but they knew that it was their partners who were engaged in a battle. They set off in that direction.

When they arrived they saw their digimon lying on the ground. They looked almost dead after their battle with Megadramon. Takato pointed his D-Arc at the digimon.

"That's Megadramon. He's an ultimate virus type digimon. His special attack is the Ultimate Slicer." Takato read the data his D-Arc gave him.

"We have to help them!" Henry knew that Megadramon could kill their partners in an instant.

"Then it's time! Biomerge activate!" Takato and Guilmon Biomerged to Gallantmon. Rika and Renamon Biomerged to Sakuyamon. Henry and Terriermon Biomerged to Megagargomon. Ryo and Cyberdramon Biomerged to Justimon.

"Back in action to save the world again. How typical." Sakuyamon said this in Rika's normal sarcastic tone. "Spirit Strike!" The attack was aimed at the O on Megadramons chest, dissolving it and sending him on his way.

"Metal Wolf Claw!" A digimon attached Sakuyamon, causing her to be frozen in solid ice. The digimon was Metalgarurumon. He then went on to freeze the rest of the Biomerged digimon. He did, however, overlook Leomon, which was the greatest mistake he could have made.

"No. No! You can't get away with this! No! Please let this work! Biomerge activate!" Jeri focused all her energy into her D-Arc, causing it to glow. Then Jeri Biomerged with Leomon! They Biomerged to Saberleomon.

"Howling Crusher!" Saberleomon attacked Metalgarurumon head on, destroying the O and returning him to normal. This also destroyed the ice holding Sakuyamon and the others.

"J. Jeri? Is that you?" Takato said from within Gallantmon. "You. You Biomerged?"

"I guess so. I just wanted to help you and then that wish activated my D-Arc. Then Leomon and I Biomerged." Jeri said this from within Saberleomon.

"Well, I guess now we're all Biomerge compatible." Ryo was just as sarcastic now as if nothing was wrong at all.

"Aw. How touching. I think it's time to destroy you." A dark silhouette stood near a boulder.

"Who the hell are you?" Justimon just came right out and said it. That was the smartest thing I could think of to say? Someday I'm gonna get myself killed.

"Me? I am the Digimon Overlord." The overlord seemed sarcastic and very cocky.
