"A New Digitude!"
(OK, if Immortal Fallen Radiance is reading this, thank you for your advice and here is the answer to your question on Davis' name. I hope it's good enough for you.)
Davis was rushing to the computer room to see Demiveemon and the other digimon. They were all going back to the Digital World today to face off against that jerk of an Emperor.
"Hey, Davis, wait up!" TK called out.
"No, you speed up!" she called playfully, stopping for him and Kari to catch up to her.
"Excited are we?" Kari asked.
"Well, yeah! I don't wanna leave Demiveemon alone for too long. I did that last night and he tore my room apart. And that only took 2 minutes."
The group laughed as they got to the doors of the computer room and heard the voices on the other side.
"Smells like Davis." she heard Demiveemon say.
"Are you saying I stink?" she said opening the door.
"It is Davis!" the little dragon cheered jumping into her arms.
"Demiveemon, did you guys have a good day at school?" she asked, hugging him.
"Where's Yolei?" asked Poromon.
"Yeah, and Cody too?" asked Upamon.
"Don't worry about it. They're both on their way over." Kari said.
"Oh, here's someone now." Davis said as she heard footsteps.
"Sorry I'm late! I brought goodies from my family's convenience store!" Yolei yelled as she ran in.
"Good idea. In-training digimon are bottomless pits." TK said.
"That's pretty cool that your family owns a convenience store." Davis said as Yolei gave the digimon the food.
"It's not that glamorous. I have to pay for the food I eat, even though I work there. But the job comes with a great pension plan." Yolei said, confusing Davis about the 'pension'.
The digimon were looking at the food curiously, not sure if they could eat it, until Patamon assured them and they all began to pig out, Gatomon looking on in disgust and exhaustion.
"I hope my first litter doesn't act like this." she muttered.
"Let's check to see if the gate's open." Davis said.
"It's open." Yolei said checking. "Perfecto."
"Great, let's get go-" the goggle head cut herself off.
"Where's Cody?" Davis asked after checking to see he still wasn't there yet.
"He's still in the lunch room. Last time I checked, he was still chewing the same carrot 50 times." Yolei said.
"I hope he hurries." Davis said.
"Let's watch some TV to pass the time." Yolei suggested.
"We interrupt this broadcast to bring you the latest story." a news woman said.
"Ah." Davis groaned.
"The results of the national computer programing contest were just announced. And the winner is boy genius, Ken Ichijougi."
Ken was a boy with long plum colored hair, violet blue eyes and was dressed in a dray school uniform.
"There were many well deserving geniuses out there and I am humbled to think that the judges chose me to receive the top prize." he said.
Davis stared at him. He looked and sounded familiar, had she met him before? No, that wasn't possible.
Some guy named Jackie came on to talk about Ken's invention to brush a person's teeth for them when Davis noticed Cody had come into the room and Upamon went to greet him.
"Ken's talents include being able to play one game of chess while everyone watches. Just last week, he balanced the world's biggest check book. And that's not all. He's a champion in judo and a star on the all states soccer team. And girls, he's single!"
"Don't care." Davis muttered, getting creeped out by his eyes. They looked soulless and dead, void of any emotion at all.
"I heard that this kid is so smart that he once gave his teachers homework." Cody said.
"Cody, when did you get here?" Kari asked surprised to see him standing between her and Davis.
"He got here a few minutes ago." Davis said.
"Hey, maybe Ken knows how to defeat the digimon Emperor." TK said.
"Hmph. I know more about the Digital World than that stupid kid." Yolei said turning off the computer with a frown on her face.
"Whatever. Let's forget about him and go." Davis said.
"All present and accounted for. Let' get going." TK said.
Everyone held up their digivices and were sucked in, the music playing again.
(Scene Change to the Digital World)
"You guys are back to normal." Cody said to the digimon.
"Yep." Veemon said.
"We change back when we return to the Digital World." Armadillomon said.
Davis's D-3 started beeping then and she looked at it to see some dots that represented them on it and another one farther off.
"What's going on?" Kari asked checking her digivice.
"A digi-egg." Cody said.
"What?" TK asked.
"Where is it?" Veemon asked.
"The digivice says it's not far from here." Cody said.
"More digi-eggs? But we already have ours." Davis said.
"Who're they for?" Yolei asked.
"We'll never know unless we look for them." Kari said.
"Good idea. Let's go." Davis said.
They all started walking off into the forest they were in.
The further they went, the darker it became.
"Hey, it's getting pretty dark here, I wonder why." Davis said.
Veemon shrugged at that.
"Don't worry, Davis, I'll hold your hand so you don't get scared." TK said.
"Uh, thanks, that's really sweet of you, TK, but that's not my hand you're holding." Davis said sweat dropping.
"It's mine." Veemon said.
The child of Hope looked down and saw that it was the blue digimon's hand he was holding and let go, blushing in embaresment as the others laughed.
Cody walked up to where Davis was, curiosity on his face.
"Hey, Davis, may I ask you a question?" he asked.
"Sure, go ahead." she said with a smile down at him.
"Well, I was wondering, isn't Davis a boy's name?"
That got everyone's attention. They all knew that too, but never really bothered to ask about it.
"Yeah, it is. What of it?" she said.
"Well, how did you get that name?" the new child of Knowledge asked.
Davis frowned, trying to remember. It was weird, she knew what the reason was for, but she couldn't remember it clearly, like something was blocking it.
"Um, well, my real name is Daisuke, but everyone calls me Davis because, um, my Dad I think said he liked the name." she said, unsure of why she had a hard time with that memory.
"But Daisuke is a boy's name too." Yolei pointed out.
"My parents thought I was gonna be a boy. They didn't want to change it and thought it would be unique to have a daughter with a boy's name." the new child of Courage said.
Everyone nodded as they prossed that information while Kari looked at her friend in concern when she noticed her having trouble with the answers.
Davis's D-3 started beeping again.
"I'm getting something." she anounced.
"It's just up there ahead of us."
"What are you doing here?" a voice snapped.
They all stopped and saw that their path was blocked by someone they weren't too keen on seeing.
"Look out!" Yolei cried.
It was the digimon Emperor!
"I'll get him." Veemon said.
Davis noticed something off about his appearance and also saw that he had no shadow, so she held onto her partner's shoulders.
"Wait, it's not really him." she said.
"It's just an illusion!" TK said noticing what she meant.
"Who do you think you are sneaking into the Digital World? What do you think this is, a movie theater or something?" the Emperor scolded.
The Digidestinds all looked at each other in confusion.
"What's he talking about?" Cody asked.
"Ordinary children are not allowed in the Digital World! Only the Digidestinds are!" the Emperor said.
The five Chosen Children all looked at him, wondering if he needed a CAT scan.
"Huh?"
"We are the Digidestinds." Davis said.
"You? The Digidestinds? That's physically impossible." the Emperor said looking at her.
"Why is that impossible?" TK asked.
"Yeah, why can't we be?" Kari asked peaking around the Digi Leader.
"Especially when two of us have already been Digidestinds for 3 years now." Davis couldn't help but add.
Kari and TK smiled at her briefly, then got serious again.
"It's simple. Based on the laws of physics, I have determined that only perfect human beings can be Digidestinds, and of course, I am the only perfect human being." the Emperor gloated.
The child of Courage rolled her eyes at that.
"I wouldn't really call you perfect." she said.
The illusion vanished then.
Then, they all heard a thud so they turned to see a Tyranamon appear from behind them with the Emperor on top of it.
"Oh no." Davis said shielding Kari behind her.
"You are intruders in a place you don't belong! You are ordered to here by evacuate the premises without further notice!" he threatened.
"The land lord told my uncle the same thing." Davis couldn't help but snipe at him.
"We have just as much right to be here than you!" TK yelled.
"This world and everything in it belongs to me, now all of you, get out!" the Emperor ordered.
"Try and make us!" Yolei yelled.
"Why must everyone question my authority? Must it always become a great big production? Get them, Tyranamon!" the Emperor ordered.
The Digidestinds digimon armour digivolved to fend them off.
The Emperor had the Tyranamon attack Gatomon and Patamon, sending them crashing into a tree.
"I thought cats always landed on their feet." Patamon commented.
"Shut up." Gatomon said dryly.
Davis told TK and Kari to go get the new digi eggs while they fought the Emperor and his minions.
Things became thougher when a few more Tyranamon came to join the party and tried to go after TK, Kari and Cody, but the armour digimon blocked their way as they escaped.
The large red dinos knocked the armour digimon around quite easily.
One was about to attack Yolei directly, but Davis saw this and ran over to the lavender haired girl, standing in front of her when the dino tried to hit her, but stopped when it saw the new person defending it's target.
Tyranamon was going to hit Davis, but something made it stop.
Davis gasped as she felt a familiar warmth in her chest and she saw a starnge mark appear on her chest.
It was a circle that had four other circles interlocking together.(Look up celtic wheele for balance.)
It was glowing a golden color and the light hit the Tyranamon, destroying the dark ring around it's neck.
Davis and Yolei, who had seen the whole thing from behind her, stared in shock as the dino shook it's head and it's red eyes turned back to their peaceful blue color, no longer under the control of the Emperor and the mark and light vanished.
Before the girls could even say anything, TK and Kari flew in on their newly armour digivolved digimon, a golden horse with wings called Pegasusmon and a while sphinx like creature with wings called Nerfertimon who also seemed to strike a sense of familiarity to Davis.
The two celestial digimon used their golden noose, a gold laso, to hold the Tyranamon down as the other armour digimon used their attacks to break the dark rings.
During all that, the Emperor ran off.
(Scene Change to Earth)
Davis was walking home with Demiveemon in her arms, still trying to find out what happened back there.
What was up with that light and mark?
Why was it able to free the Tyranamon from the dark ring's hold?
She was feeling torn at why she was feeling so many emotions ever since she first came to the Digital World.
She felt scared, but couldn't stop going back.
She knew she had to go back and felt like she had to not only to defeat the Emperor and save the digimon, but because she felt at home there and like the Digital World held an important piece of the puzzle that was her life lately.
'Why am I having such a hard time reme,bering things that I should know? It's like something was jamming my thoughts. I need to find out what's going on and soon or else I'll go crazy!' she thought.
