A New Digitude

I finally figured out the plot of the story so this chapter will now really focus more on daisuke and have some secrets here and there; now the real story will begin.

After practice I was in the computer room again, we all were getting ready to go to the digital world but were currently waiting on masato and Ikuna.

"You guys know where masato and Ikuna are?" I asked the group as we waited.

"I don't know about Ikuna but masato said something about his families store or something" said takara.

As if on cue masato walked in with a grocery bag" sorry I'm late guys I was getting some food from my families store" he said scratching the back of his head.

"Good idea in-training digimon are like bottomless pits" said takara remembering her past experience.

"Must be cool having your family own a store" I said, besides the free food she probably always saw her parents.

I felt a small pang inside me at that thought.

"Not really, I have to work for the food their even though I work their" he said slightly deflated.

"What is it?" asked demiveemon as she and the others surrounded the bag.

"Can we eat it?" asked poromon.

"Of course you can watch" said Patamon as he took a juice pack and slurped it down.

"Then let's eat!" announced upamon as they dug in.

"This is the best thing I've eaten in my life all two days of it" said upamon happily.

"Me too!" chirped demiveemon as she was covered in chocolate, poromon drank something as his cheeks turned red and he flew around.

"It's hot! Hot! Hot!" he said flying around as the other digimon minus Gatomon laughed.

I couldn't help but laugh at their antics; they were like little kids how they acted.

How could anyone not find them cute?

"I hope my first litter doesn't act like this" muttered Gatomon.

I guess if you're Gatomon. I thought as I looked at masato.

Turns out he's as good as Kaiyo when it comes to computers.

"Hey masato why don't you check if the gates open" I suggested as he walked over to the computer.

"Yeah, it's open lets go" he said.

"Wait, we can't leave without Ikuna" said takara.

"Yeah, where is she anyway" said haruki.

"In the lunch room munching on the same carrot, she never leaves until she's finished her entire lunch" said masato.

"Let's hope she hurries" said haruki.

"We can watch some TV to past the time" masato said as he pulled up a new report.

"We got nothing better to do" I said as we gathered around.

"We interrupt this broadcast to bring you the latest story" the news woman said.

"The results of the national computer programming contest were just announced and the winner is girl genius Kimiko Ichijouji"

My mind froze at that name; it couldn't be her, could it? I thought as I continued to watch.

It showed Kimiko accepting her prize; she was a pale skinned girl with long blue hair wearing her grey school outfit.

At the moment it was showing her many known triumphs one being soccer.

"Wow, she's better than your older sister" said takara as it showed Kimiko playing soccer.

"If taka heard you say that she'd kill you" said haruki as his older sister was sensitive on the subject since many thought a girl like her shouldn't play soccer.

"Kimono's many talents include being able to play one game of chess while everyone's watching and just last week she balanced the world's biggest checkbook. And that's not all, she's a champion in judo and on the all states soccer team and boys she's single" said the woman.

It just had to be her, I thought as the news woman was finishing up.

"I heard she's so smart she gave her teachers homework" said Ikuna's voice making us jump as she was standing near the doorway.

"Ikuna when did you get here?" asked haruki.

"Just a moment ago" she said walking in.

"Hey, maybe Kimiko knows how to beat the digimon empress" joked takara as masato turned off the news broadcast.

"I know more about the digital world than that girl" said masato proudly.

"That girl may not know about the digital world but she is a genius" I said making him cross his arms.

"And anyway, she's not that bad she's actually really nice" I said making the others look at me.

"Wait! You mean you know The Kimiko Ichijouji!" exclaimed takara surprised as she was known to be so famous no one usually could talk to her.

"It's been a long time and I bet she doesn't even remember me but we were friends once, we met when we were kids at a math competition" I said as they looked at me.

I guess since I liked soccer like taka and as I was told she wasn't that great at math or school in general they must have assumed.

"Don't even laugh, but math just happened to be one of my better subjects" I said to them.

"Anyway we became friends but something happened I guess and it's been years since we've spoken" I said and decided to change the subject.

"Anyway shouldn't we head to the digital world already" I said as they all agreed.

"Alright time for action" said poromon as he and the other digimon came over to us.

"Well, were all here now so let's go" said takara.

We all pulled out our digivices and opened the digital gate as we were sucked in.

We ended up in a forest as I saw our digimon were back to normal.

"You guys changed back" said Ikuna looking at armadillomon.

"Yep" he answered.

"We change back when were in the digital world" said veemon.

Suddenly my digivice began to beep as it picked up the signal of two digi-eggs.

"What is it?" asked haruki.

"A digi-egg, I think" I answered him.

"What?" asked takara.

"Where is it?" asked veemon.

"Not too far from here" I said.

"But we already have our digi-eggs who could they be for?" wondered masato.

"Well there's only one way to find out" said haruki as we walked through the forest.

I don't know why but the air around us seemed to change and it felt colder as well, I don't know why but something about this world.

It just feels so familiar.

"It's getting pretty dark you guys" said takara as it was only 3:00 pm.

"Don't worry Kara of you scared of the dark its okay to admit it" joked masato as takara actually seemed kinda fearful though.

"Don't joke about that takara just went through some bad times with darkness okay" haruki defended as I looked at them.

Takara really seemed bothered by the mention of darkness but my digivice beeping made me turn my attention to it.

"Their close by, just a bit up ahead of us" I said to them and thankfully that creepy feeling was leaving and the sky began to brighten.

"What are you doing here?" said a voice.

We turned to see the Digimon Empress standing their look very miffed.

"It's you again!" I snapped at her.

"Don't worry we got her" said Patamon as he and veemon tried to attack her only to go right through her and ram into a tree.

"Patamon! Veemon! You two alright" I asked the two as the stood up.

"Aside from the aching skull, yeah" said veemon as she rubbed her head.

"Why are you sneaking around my digital world, this isn't a movie theater" she snapped.

What did she mean by that, was what we wondered.

"What do you mean by that?" asked haruki.

"Ordinary children like you aren't allowed here, only the digidestine are" she said.

"Did you get hit in the head were all digidestine" snapped takara as the empress laughed,

"Yeah right, that's physically imposable" she said.

"And why is that" I snapped, I really wanted to punch her out.

Stupid holograms.

"Simple, based on the laws of physics only a perfect human can be a digidestine and I am of course the only perfect human" she said.

Oh, please that's like saying my brothers always right, she really had a big head.

"If your perfect then I can speak Russian, don't make us laugh" said haruki as the hologram faded.

There was some loud stomping as large red t-rex appeared with the empress on its shoulder.

Well you can't say she isn't dramatic.

"Your intruder's in this place if you value your lives you'll leave now and I won't be forced to use violence" she said.

"Full of yourself much, theirs one of you and five of us" taunted masato.

He wasn't liking this girl one bit, she had major control issues.

"And we don't have to listen to you" added haruki.

"This world and everything in it belongs to me" she said to us.

What is wrong with her, nothing here belongs to her.

"The digital world doesn't belong to anyone especially you!" yelled Gatomon as our digimon agreed with her.

"If you won't leave then I guess I have to permanently put you out of the game! Get them tyranomon!" she ordered as a tyranomon appeared.

They started to come after us as we pulled out our digivices.

"DIGI-ARMOR ENERGIZE!" me, Ikuna and masato shouted as our digimon were surrounded by lights.

"Veemon Armor Digivolve Too… Taiyomon the Warrior of Courage!"

"Hawkmon Armor Digivolve Too… Halsemon the Wings of Love!"

"Armadillomon Digivolve Too… Digmon the Drill of Power!"

"This is why I'm a genius you keep using the same attacks and I come up with something new" she smirked.

"If you'd let our digimon digivolve we'd show you something new!" yelled takara.

She and haruki hated being helpless.

The digimon fought off the red t-rexes as we had to move out of the way to keep from getting in the way. But Gatomon and Patamon didn't seem too happy about having to stay in the background.

Taiyomon used her attacks but they were countered by tyranomon so Halsemon attacked knocking him back.

"Alright Halsemon!" cheered masato as his partner smiled at him.

"Did you honestly expect it to be so easy, this isn't elementary" said the empress as more tyranomon came charging in.

"Oh, great now their five!" said haruki.

"And it gets worst we only have three digimon" I said, we were seriously out numbered.

"Lets us fight! Not letting us digivolve means your nothing but a coward!" yelled Gatomon.

The empress wagged her finger like if Gatomon was a child" as long as I have this digivice you'll never digivolve and you'll just have to accept you'll never digivolve again" she said making gatomons blood boil.

"You can't control our evolution forever" said Patamon as the empress added.

"And you two are useless anyway so why don't I lessen your thirst for battle and just delete you now" she said motioning for one of her tyranomon to attack Gatomon and Patamon.

The tyranomon went after them knocking them into a tree making takara and haruki cry out in worry.

"I thought cats always landed on their feet" groaned Patamon.

"Oh shut up" said Gatomon as they jumped avoiding another attack.

They were about to be basted again but digmon got in the way.

"Hello boys, you want them you'll have to go through me" he said.

"This is so unfair" said takara.

"Oh but haven't you ever heard the old saying, its numbers and not spirit that make a win" said the empress.

"I think she has that backwards" said Ikuna.

"Guys we have to find the other digi-egg maybe it can help us" I suggested to takara and haruki.

"Daisuke's right, we'll stay here while you guys go find those digi-eggs" said Ikuna.

"But we don't know who they belong to" said masato.

"it's just a risk we'll have to take, masato take care of Taiyomon and the others we'll be back" I said as he looked surprised but nodded as I left with takara and haruki.

We didn't get too far as we got blasted by a stray blast of fire and fell into a hole.

"Why is no matter where we go we end up in a pile!?" I yelled as haruki got off of me and takara did the same.

"Don't worry about us were just peachy here!" yelled Gatomon from under me as I was on her and Patamon.

"Sorry" I said getting up.

Suddenly my digivice beeped again and much louder the digi-eggs were really close by.

"Hey guys, the signals getting stronger" I said to them as we walked towards an opening as light was shining.

Two digi-eggs were there, one was white with a snowflake on it and the other brown and bushy with a ribbon on it.

"So these are the two new digi-eggs" said haruki.

"They have the crest of light and hope on them so they must be for us" said takara.

"Try it Kara" said Patamon as the two approached the eggs.

I hung back and watched as they were able to easily pull out the eggs as a pink and yellow light appeared.

Their digivices changed to look like mine and the others, takara's had green grips while haruki's were a dark pink.

"This means we can armor digivolve" said Gatomon happy she would get some action.

"You ready Patamon?" asked takara as the digimon nodded.

"You bet" he said as they held the eggs.

"DIGI-ARMOR ENERGIZE!" they yelled as light surrounded Gatomon and Patamon.

"Patamon Armor Digivolve Too… Pegasusmon Flying Hope!"

"Gatomon Armor Digivolve Too… Nefertimon the Angel of Light!"

Patamon had become a Pegasus with the same coat coloring as Patamon with golden armor and a pale yellow mane and tail, his ears still resembled bat wings and his blue eyes shone from his gold mask and two golden wings were on his back.

Nefertimon resembled a female version of the sphinx as her fur was pure white and her armor was silver and yellow and two large white wings were on her back.

"You look amazing Nefertimon" said haruki as he went over to his digimon.

"Very impressive" I added petting her large head.

"Now let's go help the others" said pegasusmon as he reared on his hind legs ready for action.

I went with haruki on Nefertimon as she and pegasusmon were very fast flyers.

We saw the others in a very tight situation as veemon and the others had changed back and the tyranomon were about to barbeque them.

"Guys were here!" yelled haruki as we swooped towards them.

"Wow, cool!" said armadillomon.

"This way of digivolving wont always save you, it's only a matter of time before I figure out how to stop it" said the empress.

We were able to get off the two digimon as Nefertimon and pegasusmon used an attack called Golden Noose and tied up the tyranomon then used their Rosetta stone and Star Shower to destroy the dark rings.

"Not so tough now aren't you empre-Huh?" said masato as he saw the empress had made her getaway.

"What a coward" said takara as the tyranomon were looking around confused.

"If she can't take the heat she should stay out of the kitchen" I joked as we laughed.

"You should get a picture of this haruki" suggested takara as haruki took the camera from around his neck and snapped a picture.

We all went home after that, from what Ikuna said veemon and the others got knocked around pretty good so when I got home I was treating demiveemon to something and maybe try to catch up with an old friend.

You can probably guess what happened as we ended up in a dog pile AGAIN!

"I'm not even gonna say it anymore" I muttered as I was on the bottom.

"Aw man, the tyranomon's eyes are red I got the picture wrong" said haruki.

"Haruki their always red" said takara.

"Oops, I forgot" he said scratching his head.

"That empress is a real bitch, I can't wait to beat her" said masato with a grunt.

"As long as the team keeps getting stronger we can't lose" I said with a wink as Ikuna smiled at that.

"That's right justice always beats the bad guys" she said smiling.

I smiled back; she was just the cutest thing, even if she was quiet.

"You know" said Ikuna in a thinking position as we looked at her.

"If we found the empress human identity we could easily beat her since she has no power here" she said.

"Why didn't we think of that" said haruki.

"For a kid you're pretty smart Kuna" said takara as the girl looked embarrassed.

"Anyway it's late and I have the late shift at my family's store" said masato with a depressed sigh.

"Yeah, taka has a tendency to freak when I'm late as does mom and dad" said haruki.

"Older siblings what can you do about it" said takara.

I smiled sadly, I wish I could relate but unless it was about cute girls I was invisible to him.

"we'll see ya guys tomorrow, no doubt my brother probably already ate all the food mom made for dinner, looks like I'm cooking again" I sighed with demiveemon in my arms.

Honestly doesn't he remember he has a younger sister?

The others said their goodbyes as we all left for home, it was pretty late though.

"Dai?" asked demiveemon from my arms.

"Yeah?" I asked her.

"Why do you always seem sad?" she asked me as I bit my bottom lip but continued to walk.

We've only know each other for three days and yet she already picked up on that?

"Let's just say I've been through something's that I want to forget and some I'm still going through" I said to her as she stayed quiet.

I was surprised when I felt her little arms hug my arm as she seemed to be trying to reassure me; I couldn't help but tighten my grip slightly.

When I got home as I suspected Juno had eaten all the food mom had made so I was stuck making myself a late dinner.

After that I went to my room, I laid on my bed thinking about something as demiveemon snuggled up on my stomach asleep.

These past few days have actually been okay and I was making friends something I didn't think was going to happen.

But ever since this whole digital thing started I can't help but feel strange and then their Kimiko.

Should I event try it's been years, she's probably already forgotten about me, but.

My curiosity had always been my downfall as I gently set demiveemon on one of my pillows and got on my computer.

I put in the e-mail address she had given me all that time ago and sent a message, I wasn't expecting a reply after all she must get bombarded by e-mails everyday but to my surprise not five minutes later.

"Daisuke is that you? It's been years how have you been" was the response.

"She still remembers me" I said quietly as to not wake demiveemon.

"Yeah it's me, it has been a long time I can't believe you remember me "I said.

"How could I forget, we both tied at that kids math competition" she said back.

"I saw you on the news, I just moved to odabia you know how much I move and I have to say I'm surprised I can't believe your world famous" I said to her.

"What can I say when you're a genius like me and athletic as well I guess you find out you deserve to be famous" she said, she was sounding kinda full of herself.

"Besides that I don't know why I even sent that message I guess I just wanted to see if you remembered me" I said.

"Daisuke I could never forgot one of my best friends believe you've left quite an impression" she said, though I didn't know there was a double meaning to her words.

We chatted for awhile catching up on all those years we had missed because of my constant relocation changes.

But it felt like old times again, Kimiko even mentioned coming over for a visit and said she'd call when she was free.

I couldn't refuse as it would be the first time we'd meet in person for years as we finished up our conversation and I went to bed.

(Ichijouji)

Kimiko Ichijouji had just finished talking with her old friend.

"Hard to believe it's been so long and she still remembers me" she shook her head as she began to feel a sense of guilt.

"No, I won't let that change anything she's still an enemy player" Kimiko said to herself as she turned off her computer.

Still though, daisuke was a friend from her past a part she had always thought she had forgotten all but her.

Her first real friend "I don't care I'll gain her trust again and learn their secrets then I'll take them down" said Kimiko in a voice that sounded a lot like the digimon empress.

So what do you think of my beginning plot bet ya weren't expecting this, and this is only the beginning I'll still take any suggestions though into account.
