Izzy's lab, Odaiba
"We came as soon as we heard," Kari said as she, Margaret and Jacob entered Izzy's office, "Is it really Jacob's partner?" "That's what I was thinking at first," Izzy said, "But then seven more signals turned up." Izzy motioned to a map of the digital world on his computer. Emanating from the map were eight symbols that were similar to the eight crests. "I think that this means that there are eight more crests out there," the scientist explained, "And I have a feeling that it may have something to do with Jacob."
"Me?" Jacob said in astonishment. "According to my readings, the original signal started up yesterday when you were thawed out. On top of that, here's a map of the world." Izzy then pulled up a digital world map, zooming into Odaiba. "The crest symbols mark where we all are. Yolei, Davis and Cody have two crests and Ken's symbol is the marking on Wormmon's head." Izzy then pulled up the lab, which showed the crests of Light and Knowledge, representing Kari, Tentomon and Izzy. "Right here is the same crest that appeared when you were revived," he said, motioning to an unknown symbol next to Kari and Izzy. "That's where…I'm at! That must mean that the mysterious symbol WAS my Digimon!" Jacob said in astonishment. "It's not just that," Izzy said.
He then pulled up a map of the real world, which had the same mysterious "crests" from the digital world spread across the planet. "It seems that you're not the only one. There must be eight new crests we didn't even know about!" Izzy said. "But how are we going to find the rest of them?" At that moment, a digivice suddenly appeared in Jacob's hand. It looked like the D3s, only it was turquoise with red grips. "Holy Shit!" Jacob said in shock, but quickly slapped his hands over his mouth, remembering that Margaret was nearby. He managed to apologize through his hands. "Is this a digivice?" Jacob asked. "Yes, that's a digivice," Izzy said, just as shocked, "Looks like you really are a digidestined." "Mind if I see it?" Kari asked. "Sure thing," Jacob responded as he handed her his digivice. As she looked through it, Kari noticed that the features were the same as that of Margaret's, but then she found two new features: "Translator" and "City Select". There was also a help section for the digivice. "Maybe I should see the help part," Jacob suggested as Kari handed his digivice back. "Let's see…" Jacob said to himself as he chose the "First Time" selection at the help menu.
"Greetings," a familiar voice spoke up, "If you're watching this, that means that you've just become a Digidestined." "Hey, It's Gennai!" Izzy exclaimed, "He must've set this up himself!" The voice continued, saying, "Digidestined are chosen people who are partnered up with creatures called Digimon to help protect the real world and the digital world, where Digimon live. Your digimon will help protect you from evil by digivolving. This device is called a digivices are used for a variety of things, such as traveling between the real world and the digital world or helping your digimon digivolve.
"Bet you didn't know that there are digidestined all over the world, so you're not the first one. There are seven other kids who got this digivice, and like the other digidestined, they are spread across the real world. This special type of digivice has two exclusive features to aide you in the adventure that awaits you. The first one is the translator, which alters the wavelength properties of the voices of your and everyone around you, allowing you to communicate with ease, even if you and your friend don't speak the same language. The second one is the "City Select". If you're in the digital world, you can use this new feature to go to any city in the world. This way, you can easily visit your digidestined friends around the planet without wasting valuable time. However, this function can only get you to the city, so once you get there, you'll have to find your own way to any other digidestined in the area. I think that covers all the basics. If you need any more help, browse through the other selections here on the help menu. Good luck to all of you!"
With that last statement, the transmission ended. "Wow, that explains a lot," Izzy said. He turned to Jacob and said, "Listen, I need you to do a favor for me." All Jacob said was, "I'm listening." "Since your Digivice can go to any city around the world, I need you to go and find the seven other kids who got this. First however, go to the digital world with Kari. I need her to show you the basics of being a digidestined, if that's alright with her," Izzy stated. "Of course I will!" Kari piped up, "I haven't been to the digital world in a while, so I can't wait!" "Well then, it's settled." Izzy optimistically said, "I'll set the coordinates to the digiport closest to where we last saw that first digimon." "Yeah, but how do we go to the digital world? Do we use some kind of special door?" "No," Kari said as Izzy locked onto the Digi-Port, "First, you hold your digivice to the computer and say "Digi-Port open!'" "Alright, I'll give it a shot," Jacob said. Pointing his digivice to the screen, he stated, "Digi-Port, open!" A bright light consumed Jacob, Kari, Margaret and the two Gatomons as all five were transported into the digital world.
