Thoda: City of Water
Renamon- "Hello everyone. This is chapter two. Shadow is still on 'vacation'..."
Shadow- (from somewhere far off) "Let me go you son of a-" (loud clanging noise)
Renamon- "...So Guilmon and I will be substituting... indefinately."
Guilmon- "Yay! More bread!"
Renamon- "Guilmon... what did we talk about..."
Guilmon- (speaking through a mouthful of bread) "Shfdfw dfs nf wnf dfgfmn!"
Renamon- "And remember to review. Or else..."

The fox digimon looked annoyed about being interrupted. "We're not animals. We-"
"Yeah. We heard you the first time." Carrie said.
The second boy sighed. "Look, we know that you six are digimon... whatever the hell that is... now can we introduce ourselves?"
The wolf digimon shrugged. "Sure. Go ahead."
The second boy nodded his head. "Thank you. I'm Josh, and this," he said, pointing to the third boy, "is my friend Steve."
Steve nodded. "And the idiot who fainted is Mark."
"My name's Ryan, and this is Carrie, and..."
"Erika." said the British girl.
"Umm... well that's all good... but where are we?" asked Josh.
"You're in the digital world!" said the dog digimon.
"And that is...?"
"Where we are!" the dog barked happily.
Erika opened her mouth to say something, but was interrupted as six bright lights shot down from the sky. Each one stopped in front of one of the kids. Everyone reached out and grabbed the light. The color of each changed, and a quick flash of silver, black, yellow, green, blue, and red lit up the surrounding trees. The light quickly faded, leaving the six kids each holding a different colored digivice.
"Yaaay!" shouted the dog digimon. "Partners!"
A picture appeared on each digivice, showing the digidestined which digimon was theirs and what their names were. Carrie was partnered with Inamimon, a silver and green steaked wolf digimon, Erika was partnered with Obscamon, a tiger digimon with stripes of violet, Josh was partnered with Canemon, the yellow dog digimon, Steve was partnered with Aucemon, a green and blue eagle digimon, Ryan was partnered with Corrimon, a fox with three blue tails, and Mark was partnered with Basimon, a red and orange snake.
"Well, that was... helpful..." said Josh, who's dog digimon was yipping happily about his new friends. "But why are we here?"
Obscamon, who was eyeing Canemon with contempt, said "I'm not exactly sure, but if I had to guess, It would have something to do with the increased activity in the citadel."
"The what?" Mark asked, who had finally gotten up.
The tiger digimon nodded towards where the trees seemed thinnest. "It's nearly impossible to see it from the forest, but if we head in to town, you'll recognize it immediately."
"Why?" asked Erika. "Is it in the center of town?"
The tiger digimon hesitated, so Corrimon answered for her. "...no. But you'll see it. I promise."
And with that, the five digimon turned and began walking. The digidestined looked at the digimon, then at Canemon, who was still baying happily, and shrugged. The followed their digimon towards the city.

The digidestined exited the forest, and found themselves on the outskirts of a town.
"Welcome to Thoda!" Corrimon said. "City of Water."
The digidestined looked around. Before them was a town of mostly one or two story buildings. They could see down the street a large open area, with lots of digimon walking around, talking, and generally doing business. Further down the street was a five story temple, with water shooting out of various fountains across the edifice. Behind the temple was an enormous lake that stretched to the horizon. But none of these things seemed to fit the idea of the citadel.
"So... where's this 'citadel' place you were talking about?" asked Steve.
"Turn around." said Obscamon.
The digidestined did. Behind the forest, stretching upwards into the clouds, was a massive tower. It was covered with silver and blinding white plates, which slowly shifted, giving the impression that the tower was made of liquid light. Nearer towards the base, the structure flattened out into a wider building, which was made of the same shifting material.
"Wow..." said Carrie. It seemed to be the only word for the situation.
"Yes, wow." said Obscamon. "However, we while you stand there gaping at it, a welcoming party is coming out of the city."
Reluctantly, the digidestined tore their eyes away from the structure. Looking back at Thoda, they saw that, indeed, something was approaching them from the town. Or rather, someone. Someone with grey hair.
"Hello, children!" the old man said.
"Hold on a second!" Erika said. "There are humans living in the digital world, too?"
The old man chuckled. "Of course not. I am not a human, just a very old and tired program. Now please, follow me. We have mush to discuss. And hopefully much to eat, as well! I could use some muffins right about now..."
The old man turned, and started to walk back into the city. Josh called to him "Hold on a second! Who are you?"
The old man looked back. "My name is Genai, and we have much to discuss. Hurry, now. There isn't much time!"
