Chapter 2: Meeting the Digidestined

Returning to the Real World and arriving back at Izzy's office, all the Digidestined, excluding Davis' group who were still recovering, had gathered around to investigate their new allies, where the Digidestined of Knowledge attached several electrodes on Renamon's being and began to analyze Renamon's data on his computer.

"Prodigious! Your data and mainframe are completely different from our Digimon." Izzy said as he scanned Renamon's mainframe, amazed at what he had found out about the foxy Digimon.

"Izzy, am I finished yet? These suckers on these wires are getting cold." Renamon questioned, feeling somewhat uncomfortable with Izzy probing her like a science experiment.

"Almost done, Renamon." Izzy replied, with Tentomon add. "Just a few more minutes and we'll have all the info we need."

"This guy may be Rookie but already he's bigger than all of us." Gomamon commented as he looked upon Guilmon.

"Haha. I know right." Agumon said in reply, which Guilmon couldn't help be feel embarrassed.

"So Guilmon and Renamon Digivolved through your Digivices? How can this be possible?" Matt questioned with curiosity, to which Tai and Sora explained, surprising the others and causing Joe to say. "But I thought Digidestined could only have one Digimon partner."

"I thought the same, but our Digivices reacted to them." Tai said in reply, causing Sora to nod in agreement and add. "It is the strangest thing."

"Well I say Guilmon looks quite cute." Mimi commented, which made the red dino Digimon rub the back of his head, blush a little and say. "Stop it, you're embarrassing me."

"Guys, I have finally completed the analysis." Izzy informed, getting the attention of all the Digidestined and Digimon, though he looked at the others with a serious expression.

"Agumon, would you and the Digimon like to go out and play? And take Guilmon and Renamon with you?" He then asked.

"Sure. Come on, little sister." Biyomon said cheerfully, pulling Renamon's arm as she led her out as Agumon and Gabumon led Guilmon out, but knew from the way Izzy looked at them, there was something that he didn't want Guilmon or Renamon to hear.

After the Digimon headed off, speaking first, Kari asked. "So what is the information you have for us?"

"From what I gathered, it is highly possible that those two Digimon have come from a different world. And I theorize that they came to our reality by accident. As for their memories, I am unsure as to how they were erased, but from one way I believe to be a strong bond was some part of their original partners's DNA resides within them, but Guilmon and Renamon are now connected to Tai and Sora for some reason. But I am not too sure why the reason for forming a new bond with Tai and Sora has occurred."

"A connection?" Tai asked, still confused.

"Anyway, we also discovered something else. Kuwagamon shouldn't have been able to resist both Greymon and Birdramon's attacks and only retreated because of Guilmon and Renamon." TK said.

"That's something I did pick up on. Someone is powering up the enemy Digimon with a new, and no doubt dangerous power." Izzy said, to which Tentomon added. "They making them vulnerable to our attacks ever since the reboot."

"Wait a second. The reboot... could it be possible that someone from the past has come back for revenge?" Mimi questioned in concern, thinking of all the enemies they had made, including Devimon, Etemon, Myotismon, the Dark Masters and Apocalymon.

"It's more than likely since we rebooted the Digital World to stop King Drasil's plans." Izzy said in reply, believing Mimi was on the right path.

"Maybe, and that could be related as to how Guilmon and Renamon ended up here." Tai thought aloud.

"Yes, and I believe it because I think due to our enemies having no idea on who they are." Izzy said in reply, causing Sora to say. "Then they are needed to save the Digital World."

-Meanwhile, with Guilmon and Renamon-

"Come on you two, cheer up." Gatomon said as she was playing with a ball of wool, getting into her feline side as she told the duo. "Once you relax, it'll be more fun."

However, Guilmon and Renamon didn't feel like relaxing with all they had lost, with Renamon lying on the couch, while Guilmon crossed his arms and had his back to the wall.

"But you guys still have your memories. Us? We barely remember anything." Renamon said solemnly.

"We have no memories whatsoever. How can you guys be cheerful?" Guilmon asked, feeling envious of the Digidestined Digimon.

You aren't the only ones to lose all you loved." Gatomon said, starting to get a little irked by Guilmon and Renamon's continued negativity, before she informed. "After the reboot, we too have lost our memories."

"But through Ordeimon from our final battle, we managed to regain our lost memories." Agumon said.

"I just hope Sora has forgiven me for being so mean to her." Biyomon said, still feeling sore for how she treated her best friend.

From the words of Gatomon and Biyomon, Guilmon and Renamon were taken by surprise, causing the foxy Digimon to ask. "You lost your memories?"

"That's right, but thanks to our human partners refusing to give up on us, we remembered who we were, so try not to worry too much. I know it is difficult now, but your memories will return one day." Gabumon said in reply, certain that Matt and the others could help the amnesiac Digimon.

"Besides, not all of your memories are gone. How could you two remember each other?" Patamon pointed out, which caused Guilmon and Renamon to look at each other with surprised expressions, where both thought about it carefully and were at a loss for how they remembered each other.

"So the only memories we have are of each other?" Renamon asked, raising from her couch to look at Guilmon, where she questioned. "That is interesting, isn't it Guilmon?"

"It is. How can we recognise each other?" Guilmon questioned in reply.

"So don't worry, your memories will return one day. So for now, we should have fun while we can." Palmon said with a cheerful smile.

"If you guys don't mind, I think I'd prefer to train." Guilmon said as he headed back to Tai and the others.

Confused, Gomamon asked. "Train? But why?"

"Because I have a feeling that there may be evil Digimon around and I wanna protect my friends. I have to train and get stronger." Guilmon said in reply as he put a hand on the door knob, about to leave.

"You read my mind. I'll join you" Renamon then said, getting up to join him.

"Hey, wait a minute!" Agumon called out to them, getting the attention of the pair, where the Digimon of Courage then said. "Don't forget. Biyomon and I made a promise to protect you both, so if you wish to train, you need to do it with us."

"Exactly." Biyomon added, which worried Guilmon and Renamon a little about letting their 'older siblings' down.

"Guys?" Tai suddenly asked upon hearing the ruckus, opening the door as he informed. "We've got a big crisis here, everyone is needed"

"You got it, Tai." Agumon said as all Digimon went out to follow him, unsure what could be the problem, but all were willing to assist in anyway they could.
