Important Author's note: there's no fighting or digivolving because I need information on the digivolvations for the digimon. I can't continue on without that info.

Digital World XD: Chapter two: Welcome everyone!
Damien jabbed at the air. His faithful Digimon; Koko the Lopmon, Zero the Terriermon, Damage the BlackGabumon, and Raven the Falcomon followed his lead, jabbing and kicking in the air with intense speed.
Today was the beginning of the annual Digimon Tamers Brawl Tournament. Every Digimon and tamer are going to be there. It was the tournament that decided the Champion of all Tamers for every rank. And win one hundred thousand gomos (Digimon money, can be used in human world as well, one gomo equal twenty US dollars)
Before I get ahead of myself, let me share a little background history first. Every year years, tamers of all ages come from all around and fight in the tournament to see who is the best of the best. Normal rank tamers, bronze rank tamers, silver rank tamers, gold rank tamers, and legendary tamers.
Damien, to be truthful and honest, though he would never admit it, was a nervous wreck. Last year's champion was rumored to be showing up today. Damien's arch rival. 'the Rhino' Clifford Sustemomo. He had narrowly beaten Damien in the semi-finals. The two had always have been rivals. It even goes back to when they were toddlers. But it didn't matter. Not this time. And not ever again.
Damien had been thinking so deeply though, that he hadn't noticed that Zero had fallen over with exhaustion.
"Deadbolt," Zero mourned, laying belly down, tongue sticking out.
"Huh? Oh Zero! What happened?" Damien asked, snapping back to reality.
"Training's what happened, Deadbolt!" Zero cried. He rolled onto his back and glared hard at his tamer. "What are you trying to do? Kill us?"
"I'm getting ready for the tournament, that's what."
"Yeah, but it's over a month from now when we actually fight!" Damien paused for a moment. Even if he didn't want to admit to it, Zero was right. It was five weeks away before he and his team would go into the tournament.
Damage broke the silence by saying, "You know Deadbolt, you could always instead of training, help train someone who's going to be in the tournament this week?"
Then, as if fate itself had stepped in, Aurora and her Digimon appeared, walking around casually as if it were any other day. But Damien knew better. Today was the day Aurora would go in the tournament.
Suddenly, without warning, Zero leaped to his feet and ran over to Aurora. Damien started to panic and reached out to grab Zero's flying ears. Too late. Zero ran, giggling madly, over to Aurora.
The girl of Damien's dream. To Damien, Aurora was beautiful. He loved the way she talked so calmly and sweetly to him, as if they were old friends.
And they were, to some degree. You see, it was Aurora who had first met Damien when he had been asked to join Team Night Wolf. And ever since, Damien has felt this tight feeling in his chest every time she was around. This time was no exception.
Zero was chatting cheerfully wit Aurora, cracking jokes and making her laugh. Damien couldn't help but smile at the scene.
'She's so good to Digimon', Damien thought. 'She treats them with kindness and compassion. Oh, man! She's coming this way!'
Zero was now leading Aurora towards Damien, still laughing and telling jokes like he didn't have care in the world.
Before Damien could do anything, Aurora was standing in front of him.
"Oh!" was all Aurora could say when she realized where she was standing.
"Hi," she said weakly.
"H-hey," Damien stuttered.
"So?" Zero asked. Aurora and Damien both looked at each other, confused.
"So . . . what?" Damien asked.
"So," Zero giggled. "Aren't you two going to work out together? I mean, Aurora is going to fight today, and you're not. I was just figuring maybe you two could help each other out."
Damien's face, by then, was now a deep scarlet, like his hair. His heart had shot up to his throat, making him unable to speak.
Thankfully, Aurora broke the silence by saying, "That would be nice of Damien to help. I'm kind of nervous about this tournament, you see."
Damien, before common sense could kick in, stuttered loudly, "I-I b-be gl-glad to-to help you, A-A-Aurora!"
Aurora looked away, blushing madly, and murmured, "Thank you."
Damien was sweating big time. Zero grinned widely and giggled slyly. Kaida, Aurora's best friend, was smiling ear to ear.
"S-so," Damien hesitated abruptly. "s-shall we s-start?"
Aurora, for the first time today, looked directly at his blue eyes with her own blue eyes.
"Okay," she said, even though it was more quiet than usually. "Let's go."
"Hey wait for us!" a voice called out. Everyone looked to where the sound was coming from. Arilya, her Digimon, and two other guys that Damien wasn't familiar with ran over to them.
Arilya leaned over to catch her breath, and stretched quickly and asked slyly, "Now you two love birds wouldn't be thinking about running of without me, right?"
Aurora laughed hard and answered playfully, "And we would've gotta away with it too! If it weren't for you meddling in!"
The two girls burst out laughing. Damien turned his attention quickly to the two new guys standing chuckling quietly.
"Hey there," Damien waved to them. "My name's Damien. What's yours?"
"I'm Patrick," one smaller of the two boys introduced. "And this is Jay," he said, gesturing towards his larger counterpart.
"Hey," Jay said.
The boys were quickly introduced and decided, since Aurora and Arilya were busy chatting and laughing, to battle each for fun.
XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
"Hello Haseo," Ember greeted.
"Hello Miss, uhm, Ember, was it?" he asked.
"Yes, that's correct. I was wondering if we could get together for a little bit. I was bored and decided to try and find you," Ember said.
"I see. I would be honored to be with you Miss Ember," Haseo said. 'And perhaps learn some more about the competition,' he thought.
"Good. I was thinking we could go for a walk or something," she said with a convincing, but fake, smile. 'And perhaps get acquainted with your strategies. I can't help but wonder how you managed to get SangLoupmon so weak,' she thought.
"That sounds wonderful," Haseo said with his own convincing, but fake, smile. 'I need to learn more about you anyway. My plan might have weakened SangLoupmon, but it wasn't quite weak enough to go out in one shot,' he thought.
The two went for a walk in the park. They both noticed the awkward silence. Neither of them exactly gave off a nice or friendly aura.
"So, your digimon seemed pretty strong," Haseo said, not really caring about how weird it might sound.
"Yes. My team and I have trained a lot recently. We are very determined to win our new rank," Ember said.
"As are we. It will be interesting to see who wins," Haseo said.
"Yes it will. Your plan seemed very well thought. I am impressed, although I have to question your sanity," Ember said.
"What, you mean about helping with the attacks? I believe that species doesn't matter. Whether you are digimon or human, you can still fight," Haseo said
"I see. I believe the same thing," Ember said with a small but real smile.
"Well, good luck with the tournament. I am sorry but I need to take my leave. Perhaps we should take a walk with each other again. I rather enjoyed myself," Haseo said with his own smile.
"Good bye and good luck as well," Ember said before walking off. 'He seems surprisingly nice. Maybe I will hang out with you again,' she thought.
'She seems like an interesting person. She's not what I expected," Haseo thought.

Three boys were standing alone with nothing to do. They rarely glanced at each other for a few seconds.
Their Digimon were either sleeping, eating, or training by themselves.
Suddenly, a boy jumped out of nowhere and said, "HI THERE!!"
Only one looked up.
"Hey," he said in a cool fashion.
"Hey! Wazzup!" the new boy said, fashioning his hands into a peace sign. "Who're ya buddies? Giving each other the silent treatment or somethin'?"
"We're not 'buddies' and we're not giving each the silent treatment. None of us want to talk, okay?" the cool boy stated.
The other boy shrugged, then something went Ding in his head and he shouted, "Hey, I know you! You're Renji Fujima from Luna Sphere, the champion of last year's Silver rank tournament!"
Then he pointed to another boy with black and white hair. "And you're Huanglong Lee from Golden Fist, last year's second place winner! You nearly beat Renji but lost by two points!"
"Yeah and who are you, anyway?" a third boy asked coldly. "Some crazy fan or something?"
The first boy laughed hard and cheerfully before saying, "Nope! I'm a member of Night Wolf!" He held out his hand towards the other boys and said, "I'm Ryan by the way! Ryan Ramereze, at your serves!"
"Well then I guess I could say my name is Aisu Oki. Please to meet you, now I most say good bye." With that, he began to walk away. Ryan waved and called to Aisu's departing form, "Oh-Kee-Duo-Kee! Have fun!"
"We'd better left too," Huanglong said gently, turning to leave, but not without shooting a cold glare at Renji. Renji nodded, waved good bye to Ryan, and left.
Ryan looked at his watch and gasped, "Oh my God! I'm late! Oh man, Dawn's gonna kill me!" And with that, he ran at full speed away.
XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Dawn tapped her foot impatiently, letting her gaze wonder every few seconds.
Where is he? she growled to herself.
"Who ya waiting for, Dawny?" a cheerful voice asked.
Dawn turned to see both Alexis and Sayuki standing besides her, both equally curious.
Alexis asked again, still maintain her sweet voice, "Hello? Earth to Dawn? Who ya waitin' for?"
"A friend," Dawn stated simply.
"What kind of a friend?" Sayuki asked gently.
"He's a . . . well."
"Oh, a guy!" Alexis said, grinning widely.
"Yeah, so?" Dawn asked, annoyed by the girl's smile.
"Well," Alexis shrugged, as if saying 'isn't it obvious'.
"Well what?" Dawn demanded.
"Well, do you like this 'friend'?"
"Yeah. What's it to you?"
"Hey, chill out! I was just wondering if you have a romance life too," Alexis said, waving her hands as if to prove her innocence.
"Sorry," Dawn murmured. She looked up sadly and sighed, "I'm just a bit edgy. I mean, my friend Ryan said he would be here. And that was an hour ago!"
"Dawn, Dawn, Dawn," Alexis said, shaking her head. "You shouldn't let a boy spoiler your day. I mean, look at me. My boyfriend has been gone for two months, and I'm not complaining."
"Oh, yeah."
"Um, Alexis?" Sayuki asked softly, tapping her friend's shoulder. "Who is your boyfriend?"
Alexis laughed and smiled at Sayuki. Dawn too was curious about Alexis mysterious boyfriend, when she spotted her friend.
Alexis was about to share the secret when Dawn interrupted, waving to them while running to where her friend was standing.
"See ya, guys!" she waved good-bye to her friends. Alexis and Sayuki waved back and then continued to talk.

Chad Darkfang trotted through the Grand Gate, the entrance to the Digimon Tamers Brawl stadium. The gate had hundreds of both people and Digimon. Chad never thought he would see this many people here!
Wow, he thought with bewilderment. Two month away from camp and bam! It' like you haven't been to the Digital World in twenty years. Guess the news guy was right. The Digital World is growing fast. Real fast!
Chad looked up and down, hoping to spot someone. But she was no where in sight.
"Chad! Over here!" a voice called over the coward. Chad ran over to where he thought he hold the sound and stopped barely into front of Doctor Coughman.
"Hey Boss!" Chad greeted cheerfully.
"Chad!" the doctor laughed as he slapped Chad hard on the back. "I thought we'd never see you again. How was your mission?"
"Great! I never thought going to China to hunt down a rogue Digimon would be so much fun! But hey, to be honest, I kind of wish that mission what by faster."
Doctor Coughman nodded and pointed to the gate.
"We'd better get inside and get some seats. Or we'll be stuck in the bleachers."
"Right," Chad said, following Doctor Coughman through the gate and beyond.

Cole stood outside of the front door, waiting patiently for his girlfriend to show up. It had been six weeks since he and Will had started dating, and things were going great. Sadly though, whenever duty called, Cole had to leave Will.
But today was special. Today was the day when there would be no missions, no duty, like a holiday.
The door opened and Will's smiling face peeking through.
"Hey Cole, what's with the flowers? You asking me out again?" Will said, pointing at the roses in Cole's hand.
Cole shrugged and said casually, "You could call it that."
"Come on Cole!" the redhead laughed, opening the door completely.
"Well," Cole answered slyly. "I was going to invite you to come with me to the Digital World for the Digimon Tamers Brawl."
"Digimon?" Will asked, cocking a hip to the side. "What is that?"
"Talking monsters that fight and bond with humans."
"Oh," was Will quiet answer. Then she smiled and said, "OK! Count me in!"
Cole took Will's hand and pressed a button on his Digivice. A Digital portal opened right in front of them.
Will gaped at the portal in front of them with wide, shunned eyes.
"Scared?" Cole asked.
Will shook her head stubbornly and said, "Nah, I've dealt with things creeper than this."
Cole nodded and jumped through the portal. Will followed him, and the portal closed behind them.
