Summary: Adventure AU! What if Daisuke had been adopted by the Yagami family when he was four years old? What if he was with Taichi on that fateful day at Summer Camp? How different would the adventure have been with a bit of Miracles added to the mix?
Author Notes: Hey guys and welcome back to A Touch of Miracles! I would just like to thank everyone who has reviewed, favourite and/or followed this story so far. I'm glad you're all enjoying this and I hope to continue to please you ^_^.
Now I'm going to take the time to quickly explain how I'm doing the ages in this and then you can read on, alright?
Right, I'm using the Japanese ages for this, except for Joe who I have made one year older and obviously Daisuke, so there isn't so much of a huge jump in 02. To help you with Daisuke's age let me just say this, he's the exact age as Iori Hida; in fact, I'm planning on having the two of them being pretty good friends.
Also if it seems at times that Taichi is a bit harsh on Daisuke please remember that Taichi is eleven years old, he's almost a teenager and despite the fact he loves his brother he does find it a bit embarrassing to hang out with a six-year-old. He's the same with Hikari but he's a bit kinder for reasons only you hard core Digimon fans would remember. So just be warned he loves Daisuke, but he is still a kid himself.
Oh I don't know if you noticed but I am using both the English version and the Original version of Digimon to make this story, hopefully, it will turn out alright in the end.
Right, let's get right into this then! Enjoy guys!

A Touch of Miracles: Season 1
Episode 1: Adrift? The Island of Adventure!
A huge field sitting below a hill slowly appeared. Trees were surrounding the area and children of all ages were running around laughing as tents were slowly set up on flat ground. Teachers were trying to make order but it was difficult with so many kids to look after.
In a tree, not too far from camp but far enough not to get noticed, sleeping on one of the higher branches was a boy who looked around ten to eleven years old. He had brown hair that was sticking up in a huge bush style, which was held in place with a blue headband and a pair of round clear goggles. The boy wore a simple blue t-shirt with a yellow shirt underneath and brown shorts, a pair of blue, white and yellow sneakers with baggy white socks and finally a pair of white gloves covered his hands.
The boy was Taichi Yagami, or just Tai to his close friends and family, and he was the eldest child of the Yagami family. Normally it was hard to get Taichi to actually walk instead of run anyway but the bus to the camp was long and Taichi was exhausted, so he snuck away to get a quick cat nap.
Sitting at the base of the tree was the only boy who would be able to find Taichi no matter where he hid too. He was much younger this boy, looking around five maybe six years old, with messy spiked burgundy hair and mocha coffee eyes. He wore a blue hooded t-shirt, brown shorts and a pair of square goggles that hung around his neck. His sneakers were orange and he had matching sweatbands on his wrists, finally, he had a blue backpack with soccer balls printed all the pockets sitting beside him.
This boy is Daisuke Yagami and he's the younger adoptive brother of Taichi, and also the youngest Yagami child. Daisuke was much more hyperactive than his older brother and very often found it hard to concentrate or even sit still. There are only three things that can keep his attention for a long time and that's soccer, drawing and playing his handheld game console.
"Come on, come on, come on!" Daisuke muttered to himself as he continued to mash the buttons on his poor game device with manic determination. He knew his mother wouldn't be happy when she realises he had snuck the device in his backpack but he knew Taichi wouldn't want to play with him all through the summer.
So he brought ways to entertain himself seeing as Daisuke didn't think he would make friends here like his mother hoped.
It was then did something small and white land softly on his game screen causing the six-year-old to blink in confusion.
"Aniki?" Daisuke called up to his brother knowing full well he wasn't really asleep; he just didn't want to be asked to do some heavy lifting.
"What?" Taichi grunted as he continued to rest his hands behind his head allowing the sun to beam down on his face in such a calming way.
"Is it meant to snow today?"
"It's summer Daisuke. Why would it snow?" Taichi retorted and Daisuke bit his lip as another snowflake fell onto his game console. Taichi suddenly yelped though when something cold landed on his nose.
"What?" Taichi whispered as he sat up in shock and held out his gloved hands. Slowly a white flake landed on his palm but quickly melted due to his body heat.
"It's snowing?"
The Yagami brothers weren't the only ones noticing the weather though, there was a girl looking around the same age as Taichi who was next to notice the weather.
She had short red hair and dark red eyes and she wore a yellow and white sleeveless top with light blue jeans. She wore normal sneakers, bright red gloves and a blue helmet-like hat.
Her name is Sora Takenouchi and she is Taichi's best friend and fellow teammate on the soccer field. She also had a very soft spot for Daisuke, finding the cute Otōto of her best friend completely precious.
"Where did those two run off to? Tai better not be slacking off again." Sora grumbled as she continued to search the forest for her missing friends without success. The only one who could find Taichi when he was hiding was Daisuke, and he went with him.
Her eyes blinked though when a couple of white flakes floated down in front of her face and settled on the soft grass.
"Snow?"
The soft snowfall took a very sudden turn for the worse as it turned to a huge blizzard the quickly covered the camp in the snow.
"To the cabins!" The teachers shouted and Taichi quickly jumped down from his branch and landed on his feet in a crouch.
"Get on my back Daisuke," Taichi ordered and Daisuke was quick to comply, after slipping his backpack on. Taichi tried to make it back to the cabins but the snow was just too thick if he continued they could end up completely lost.
"Alright, we'll try something else," Taichi grunted as he took off running up the steep hill that held the shrine. He could hear footsteps following him meaning some other kids also couldn't get to the cabin so decided to take shelter in the shrine too.
Taichi was glad that he played soccer for a hobby, it didn't take him long to reach the shrine and rush inside with Daisuke. The door was slammed shut by the person that followed him as Taichi allowed Daisuke to slip off his back.
"Are you alright Daisuke?" Taichi asked and even though he sneezed Daisuke still managed to smile brightly at his big brother.
"You ran so fast Aniki. You were like the wind, it was so cool!" Daisuke gushed happily and Taichi puffed his chest out with pride. It always stroked his ego when Daisuke praised him over something.
"Oh don't tell him that Daisuke-chan. We don't need his ego to get any bigger." Sora teased as she leant against the door, being the last one through the door and as such was the one who closed it.
"Sora-onee-san!" Daisuke squeaked and Taichi rolled his eyes as Sora crouched down and opened her arms allowing Daisuke to run straight into her with a laugh.
"It's good to see you Daisuke-chan. Are you feeling better? Didn't you and Tai end up catching a cold from Hikari-chan?" Sora asked causing Daisuke to bite his lip slightly. Sora looked up at Taichi to see him determinedly looking away from them his expression slightly dark.
"Hikari-nee-chan ended up catching it from us again. She's at home sick." Daisuke admitted with a pout. Sora couldn't help herself from hugging him again causing him to giggle.
Taichi looked around the shrine to who else was exactly in here; to his surprise, it was everyone that was meant to share a cabin with him back on the campsite.
Near the back were Yamato Ishida and his Otōto Takeru Takaishi, Yamato seemed quite happy to stay away from the others while Takeru seemed to want to talk to someone other than his brother, maybe he and Daisuke would get along? They were pretty close to the same age.
Sitting near the door was Joe Kido, the boy had been assigned as their cabin manager but he was such a nervous wreck it was really hard for him to take charge of the kids.
Sitting next to Joe was Koushirou Izumi and to Taichi, it seemed the kid doesn't even release that other people had joined him in the shrine. He was more interested in what was going on with his computer.
"Still no connection? Is it broken?" Koushirou mumbled just before a loud huff caught everyone's attention.
"How long are we going to be stuck here? It's too cramped!" Mimi Tachikawa whined from where she sat curled up in the corner of the shrine, her arms wrapped around her knees as she pouted.
"We can't go anywhere until this blizzard lets up," Sora said soothingly as she stood to her feet and allowed Daisuke to go free.
"Actually guys, I think it has!" Taichi pointed out with a grin as he realised all had gone silent outside. He was quick to rush to the door and slid it open revealing that it had all settled down.
The blizzard had certainly left it's mark though. Everywhere you look there would be a layer of snow; it covered the ground and the trees giving the campsite a beautiful pure white appearance.
"So the canoe races are obviously cancelled, so let's have a toboggan race instead!" Taichi cheered before he raced onto the small hill that the shrine rested on.
"Hey Daisuke-kun, do you want to come build a snowman with me?" Takeru asked the youngest boy of the group. Takeru thought it might be a bit easier to get along Daisuke instead of the other kids considering they were closer to the same age.
"Okay! But I bet I can make a bigger one than you." Daisuke challenged with a grin as he accepted the blonde's hand and allowed him to pull him outside.
"Not a chance!"
"Hey Takeru you be careful, you might trip on something!" Yamato called out as he quickly rushed out after the two boys into the cold deciding if no one else was going to watch them then he will.
"Brr. If I knew it was going to be this cold I would have brought a jacket." Sora said as she walked outside with a shiver. The cold didn't stop her from joining her friends outside though; she was never one to stop just because there were limitations.
"Oh geez and I was worried about catching a summer cold," Joe muttered as he walked outside, the emergency supplies still swung over his shoulder.
"Oh wow! I wish I brought my pink snow boots!" Mimi gushed happily as she rushed outside to the join the others, not at all bothered by the cold.
Koushirou though stayed inside as he continued to click away on his computer. With a sigh of frustration though he sat back and looked down at the small device he held in his hand.
"I guess the storm is messing up the connections." He murmured proving that he had been aware of the other kids joining him in the shrine and also knew it was because of the sudden blizzard that had occurred.
"Hey...uh...Izumi! You've got to come and see this!" Taichi suddenly called out causing Koushirou to sigh before he slipped his laptop on his back and joined the other kids outside.
"Wow." He whispered as he saw what exactly had attracted the other kid's attention. Going across the sky was a wave of colours, red, orange and green all of them moving together like a dance.
"It's so beautiful!" Mimi sighed with a happy grin and Taichi nodded.
"What is it though?" Koushirou asked in confusion which wasn't a common emotion for him. Beside him, Sora shrugged as she took a guess.
"An aurora?"
"You mean Aurora Borealis? The northern lights? That's impossible. You see that's in Alaska. We're way too far south." Koushirou denied and Sora couldn't help but snort slightly.
"Well, you try telling that to the snow."
"It's so cool!" Takeru grinned and beside him, Daisuke nodded with a grin.
"Yeah! It looks like when I spill my paints on the floor but this time I won't be getting into trouble for it." Daisuke giggled and Takeru couldn't help but join in.
"We should go back inside before we all get sick." Joe fretted as he fiddled with his fingers.
"Seriously? You worried about getting sick when the sky is short-circuiting?" Yamato demanded before Taichi blinked and pointed to the sky.
"Hey does anybody else see that?" He asked causing everyone to look up. Above them, a swirling green portal had appeared in the sky and to Taichi it seemed awfully familiar.
Suddenly though eight lights appeared in the portal above them and started flying towards them. The eight children barely had a chance to cover themselves before the lights hit the ground in from of them with a wave of snow.
"Is everyone alright?" Sora called as she jumped to her feet and looked around everyone in worry. She was quick to spot Taichi near the front of the group and Daisuke was being helped to his feet by Takeru.
"We're okay over here," Yamato reassured her as the two young boys helped clear the snow of each other. It was an adorable sight and Sora barely held herself back from crushing the two in a hug.
"That was scary." Mimi whimpered as she was helped to her feet by Joe who seemed to be the only one not shaking in fear.
"What was that?" Taichi questioned and Koushirou crawled over to where a light had struck the ground close to him and looked inside the hole it had left behind.
"Meteors?" He suggested sounding sceptical of his opinion himself. He flinched away from the hole though when a light beamed out of it. Slowly a small round bubble floated out of the whole and after a quick look, Koushirou released the same was happening to everyone else.
Taichi was the first to reach out and grab his bubble and was quickly followed by Daisuke. Soon enough all the kids followed his example, Joe being the last and almost losing his in the sky.
Slowly Taichi allowed his fingers to open so he could take a look at what he actually grabbed. Sitting in the palm of his hand was a pale blue device with four sides and a screen in the middle. It had two buttons sitting on the right of the screen and one of the left but there was also a small antenna sitting on the top left hand on the device. A strange code surrounded the screen in a circle and another collection of codes surrounded the screen in a square shape.
"What is this thing?" Mimi muttered as she looked at the strange device in her hand.
"I kind of looks like one of my game consoles," Daisuke admitted as he looked at his own with a small frown. Something was telling him that this was all connected to something but Daisuke just couldn't remember what.
"My guess is some sort of miniature remote digital apparatus," Koushirou mumbled as he turned the device in his hand before pressing a couple of buttons. Taichi sighed as he looked at his own device before he caught sight of something in the corner of his eye.
When he looked up he couldn't stop the yelp of shock passing his lips.
"Forget about the strange devices! Look at that!" Taichi yelled causing all the kids to look ahead only to scream in shock. In front of them, a huge wave had suddenly appeared from nowhere and threatened to swallow them whole.
None of them could move fast enough before the wave was upon them and sucked them up into a strange portal full of colours and numbers. The group of eight children could only scream as they tumbled aware from the world they knew and into somewhere completely different.
"Taichi~"
"Come on! Wake up Taichi!"
"Taichi!"
"I'm up, I'm up," Taichi grumbled as he forced himself awake as he felt something jumping determinedly on his chest.
"Daisuke I thought I told you not to wake me up like-" Taichi's brown eyes went wide as soon as he caught sight of what exactly was bouncing on his chest and it wasn't his Otōto.
It was a round pink ball with very long ears and ruby red eyes when it smiled Taichi could see it had fangs instead of teeth. Taichi stared at the thing for a few seconds before he screamed and crab walked backwards away from it in fear.
"W-what are you?"
"You don't have to be afraid of me Taichi! I'm your friend, I'm your friend!" The creature laughed as it bounced up and down on the ground with a happy smile.
"Friend? What do you mean? Do I know you?" Taichi questioned nervously as he shakily pushed himself to his feet, flinching as the pink creature bounced closer to him happily.
"I've been waiting for you for so long Taichi! I'm so glad to finally meet you!" The creature laughed before he bounced right into Taichi's hands, who continued to stare at him blankly.
"Waiting for me? Why?"
"Because we're partners Taichi! My name is Koromon and I'm your partner!" The newly named Koromon grinned widely and Taichi blinked as the name rang something familiar in his memory.
"Koromon? Have we met before? You remind me of something but..." Taichi trailed off as he tried to make himself remember but it was impossible. Koromon blinked as he looked at the boy in confusion just before something caused the plants to rustle behind them.
"Taichi-san?" Koushirou called out nervously as he pushed his way through the strange looking plants that seemed to surround the aware and sighed in relief he finally spotted someone familiar.
"Izumi? So you're here too huh?" Taichi mused rhetorically causing Koushirou to chuckle nervously as something appeared near his ankle.
"Yes and it seems like you've got one of these pink things too," Koushirou said as he looked down at the creature standing by his leg. It looked like a walking jellyfish seeing as instead of legs it seemed to have very small tentacles. It had two arms with 3 claws working as hands and a pair of big brown eyes that shined with adoration as it continued to stare at Koushirou.
"I'm not a pink thing! My name is Motimon, it's nice to meet you friend of Koushirou-san!" Motimon grinned and Taichi yelped dropping Koromon to the floor in shock.
"Another one? What are these things?"
"I believe those miniature remote digital gadgets have taken on an actual life form." Koushirou theorised but he still looked out of sorts.
"Does that mean that everyone who got those strange gadgets is going to be here then?" Taichi questioned but Koushirou shrugged.
"I don't know. It's possible."
Taichi looked down at the two creatures who were now greeting each other happily as if they were old friends. That meant everyone who was with him at the Shrine is probably here, where ever here is.
Which means...
"Daisuke!" Taichi suddenly gasped as he started to look around frantically.
"Taichi-san?"
"My Otōto, Daisuke. I-I've got to find him, who knows what kind of trouble he's getting into too!" Taichi rambled before he took off running.
"Wait! Taichi-san!"
"Wait for me Taichi!"
'Daisuke please be okay!' Taichi thought to himself as he continued to run not releasing that Koromon had caught up to him and had wrapped his arms around his neck so not to lose sight of him.
On the other side of the island, completely separated from Taichi and the others, a small six-year-old groaned as he slowly awoke from his sleep.
Sitting up Daisuke yawned widely before rubbing his eyes softly. As he allowed his hands to drop though he realised it wasn't his mattress that he was sitting on, it actually felt more like sand.
Now wide away Daisuke scrambled to his feet and looked around widely. It looked like he was on a beach but strangely enough, there seemed to be a row of phonebooks lined up near the water edge.
"Where am I?" The six-year-old whispered to himself as he gript the straps of his backpack in worry.
"You're in the Digital World!" A voice suddenly squeaked behind him causing Daisuke to freeze. Slowly Daisuke turned around only to scream as he caught sight of the creature standing behind him.
"Oh please don't be scared of me Daisuke! I won't hurt you!" The creature pleaded as Daisuke fell on his backside in the sand. Daisuke swallowed as he took in the creature's appearance.
It was about half of the size of Daisuke, probably only just reaching his waist if they both stood up, with blue skin. It looked like a baby dragon with two long ears that were bent in the middle and tail that was wagging happily. It's arms and legs were stubby and it had huge red eyes. It's face and tummy though was white and it seemed to have a cat-like mouth that was grinning at Daisuke in such a cute way that he couldn't see the creature as dangerous.
As he stared at the creature in front of him Daisuke suddenly realised what it was and found himself relaxing just a bit.
"You...You're a Digimon, aren't you?" Daisuke stuttered and was rewarded with a huge smile from the creature before it jumped forward towards him.
"That's right Daisuke! My name is Chibimon and I'm your partner." Chibimon said as he snuggled close to Daisuke's chest and started purring in happiness.
Daisuke bit his lip before he carefully brought his hand up to scratch the small dragon behind his ears causing him to practically melt at the feeling. The poor six-year-old really didn't know what to feel about this, it had been two years since his last encounter with a Digimon and it seemed that he and Hikari-Nee-chan were the only ones who remembered what truly happened that night.
Everyone else just thought it was a bomb, Daisuke remembered getting told off by his Kaa-chan for even thinking about going out alone and it was the same for his older siblings. Daisuke had begun to think he imagined the whole thing so why did it start up now?
With a small huff and a pout, Daisuke stopped petting Chibimon before placing him on the sand and standing up himself. The small Digimon looked at him curiously as the boy patted himself free from the sand before smiling slightly down at the Digimon.
"So you're my partner? What does that mean?" Daisuke questioned and Chibimon grinned as he waved his hands up and down in excitement.
"It means I'm going to protect you Daisuke! We're going to work together and I'm going to protect you, I promise. I'll be the best partner you can ever ask for!" Chibimon gushed and Daisuke couldn't help but giggle before he held out his hand to the small dragon.
"Okay you can be my partner but you've got to be my friend first, deal?" Daisuke bargained. Chibimon eyes gleamed with tears as he practically glowed with happiness.
"Deal!" Chibimon sniffed before he shook Daisuke's hand with his own causing the boy to grin impishly.
"Now where are we?"
"We're in the Digital World, Daisuke! This place is home for all Digimon." Chibimon explained causing Daisuke to blink slightly.
"Digital World?"
"What's that?" Koushirou questioned as he looked at Motimon with a curious expression causing the Digimon to grin.
"The Digital World is where all of us come from. This is our home, it's where we're born and it's where we live our lives too." Motimon explained and Koushirou hummed in understanding.
Surprisingly Taichi had managed to calm down with Koromon's reassurance that if Daisuke, whoever he was, is here then he too would have a partner who looks after him just like Koromon was there to watch over Taichi.
All though Taichi was still worrying about Daisuke it did stop him from running through the strange forest like a lunatic.
"Where is the Digital World then?" Taichi questioned but rolled his eyes when both Digimon seemed to shrug.
"Then I guess I'll look around myself then," Taichi grunted as he grabbed hold of a branch close to him and starting to climb as high as he could. Koromon was quick to follow him up by bouncing on the branches and it wasn't long before the two were sitting on a high branch. Carefully Taichi slipped his hand into his pocket and pulled out his mini spyglass before taking a look.
"The ocean, so near to a mountain? And look at all these trees. I don't think we're anywhere near out campsite that's for sure." Taichi mused as he continued to look around through the glass.
"So what do you see Taichi?" Koromon asked causing Taichi to sigh as he brought down his spyglass from his eye.
"Nothing I recognise." Taichi sighed before something red caught his attention from the corner of his eye. With a frown, he brought his spyglass back up and started to look.
"Wait, what is that?"
"What's what, Taichi?" Koromon demanded seeing as he couldn't see as far as Taichi could without his own spyglass.
Flying through the air was a bright red beetle creature. It had four arms all with very sharp claws and two legs. Its wings buzzed behind it as it screeched showing off it's sharp fangs to the world.
"It kind of looks like a red beetle." Taichi described to the Digimon next to him causing the poor thing to let out a gasp. Taichi looked at Koromon in concern as he saw how white the little guy had just gone.
"What's the matter?"
"We need to get out of here, Taichi! That Digimon is bad news; he'll kill us if he catches us in his territory!" Koromon squeaked before a loud roar made him whimper in fear. Taichi yelped as he saw the Digimon was getting closer and quickly scooped Koromon up in his arms before jumping out of the tree, just as it was turned into sawdust.
"Taichi-san! Are you alright?" Koushirou cried out as he saw the eleven-year-old crash to the ground with a groan, Koromon held safely in his arms.
"I'll live. Are you okay Koromon?" Taichi asked and the Digimon looked up at him with watery eyes.
"Y-you saved me..." Koromon whispered and Taichi couldn't help but smile as he pushed himself to his feet.
"Of course I did. We're partners, aren't we?" Taichi questioned and Koromon couldn't help but grin happily at him. A loud roar destroyed the happy moment and the two children yelped as they hit the floor as the Digimon flew just over their heads.
"What is that?" Koushirou cried out as he watched the red beetle fly into the air before preparing to turn around.
"That's Kuwagamon and he's an insect Adult Digimon. He's vicious and ruthless, with teeth like knives and scissor hands that can chop through anything. Kuwagamon is one Digimon you don't want to get on the wrong side of." Motimon summarised as the group slowly got back to their feet.
"He's coming back around!" Koromon pointed out before he squeaked when Taichi suddenly picked him up in his arms.
"We need to run!" Taichi shouted and as soon as Koushirou nodded Taichi took off running with Koushirou and Motimon not far behind him.
"Taichi-san he's following us!" Koushirou cried out as he looked over his shoulder just in time to see Kuwagamon crashed through a few trees with a loud screech.
"Quickly in here!" Motimon called out as he jumped towards a tree and then, to the shock of the two kids, jumped right through it. Not wanting to think about Taichi grabbed Koushirou's wrist before following Motimon inside.
Inside it looked nothing like a tree, instead of bark the inside seemed to be covered in metal plates that glowed a very light green.
"What is this?" Koushirou whispered as he ran his hand up one of the metal panels and watched as the light faded for just a second before returning. Motimon was about to answer when Koromon shushed him just as they heard a loud screech.
Hidden away the group of four held their breaths as they waited for Kuwagamon to pass over them before they all relaxed.
"It's alright you can come out now." A familiar voice teased from outside. Taichi poked his head out and grinned.
"Sora! You're alright." Taichi said happily as he walked towards the girl he thought as his best friend, Koushirou and the two Digimon following behind him.
"I never thought I would see the great Yagami Taichi hide from something." Sora teased with a smirk causing Taichi to pout as he looked to the side.
"You would hide too if you had something like that thing chasing you." He grumbled before he noticed something peeking shyly out from behind Sora's leg. Sora noticed where he was looking and smiled sheepishly before she stepped to the side.
"Oh yeah, this is Yokomon. She says she my partner or something like that." Sora said as both Koushirou and Taichi got a good look at the Digimon. Yokomon looked like a pink onion bulb with a flower on top of her head that seemed to be a mix between blue and purple. Her eyes were a beautiful green colour with four black lines going through them.
"It's lovely to meet you all," Yokomon whispered shyly as she bowed her head in greeting. Koromon and Motimon ran forward and the three of them greeted each other happily.
"I wonder what they are." Koushirou wondered just before another creature ran out of the bushes with a giggle. This one was pure white and was walking on four legs, it had long white ears and a mouthful of sharp teeth.
"Geez, they're popping up like rabbits," Taichi muttered to himself as he watched the new creature great the others before looking behind him.
"I found them Takeru!" He called out just before Takeru pushed his way through the bushes with a grin.
"Hey, guys! This is Tokomon, he was there with me when I woke up." Takeru said as he sat down on the ground and scratched Tokomon behind his long ears causing him to purr.
"Takeru! How many times have I told you to stop running off? You have no idea where we are or what kind of dangers there are. I want you to stay near me until I said so, understand?" Yamato lectured as he pushed his way through the bushes holding another creature under his arm like a basketball.
He had orange fur and a white face with a huge metal horn poking out from the top of the top of his head. His eyes were orange and seemed to be outlined with eyeliner.
"Yes, Onii-san." Takeru whispered sulkily as he allowed Tokomon to go play with the other Digimon.
"So you've got one as well then, huh Yamato." Taichi mused thoughtfully as Yamato put the creature down to join the others.
"He was there when I woke up." Yamato shrugged not taken his eyes off Takeru just in case he decided to run off again.
"My name is Tsunomon. It's a pleasure to meet you all." Tsunomon introduced himself with a blush painted across his cheeks. His shyness disappeared though when Koromon proceeded to tackle him causing the two to play fight together.
The five children stared at the playing Digimon in silence as they tried to work out what to do. Taichi was about to suggest something when someone came screaming out of the trees causing them all to jump.
"Help me! This thing keeps following me everywhere! Why aren't you guys running away from?! AHH!" Joe screamed as he fell to the floor revealing the creature that was sitting on his back with a cheeky smile.
It looked like a seal with flippers and grey skin but it also had a tuft of orange hair resting on its head that looked like a burning flame. Its eyes were blue and fangs were peeking out from its lips.
"Joe-san?" Taichi questioned as the older child scrambled to his feet with another yell as he spotted the group of Digimon playing together.
"Hey who are you calling a thing? I won't hurt you, Joe, I'm your friend! My name is Bukamon." The seal Digimon said with a grin causing Joe to whimper.
"I don't care who you are, just please get off of me! Why are you all just standing there?! What are these things?!" Joe demanded hysterically as Bukamon jumped down to join the rest of them.
"We're Digimon." They all said in sync causing the kids to fall silent.
"Digimon?" Taichi asked as he wondered why that name sounded so familiar to him.
Daisuke had found himself getting along really well with Chibimon which surprised himself. He was still weary of Digimon, especially after what happened last time, but just like with Koromon Daisuke found himself able to enjoy Chibimon's company.
"I'm sorry we couldn't find any food Daisuke." Chibimon whispered sadly as he laid flat on his back in the sand with a sad frown, making himself look adorable. Daisuke giggled as he slipped off his backpack and started digging through it.
"It's okay Chibimon. I'm not sure it would be safe to eat anything we find anyway." Daisuke reassured as he thought back to their failed food hunt.
Chibimon had explained to him all about the Digital World just before Daisuke's stomach rumbled. Together the two of them had decided to search the forest for some fruit but without any luck.
"Here," Daisuke said as he pulled out a candy bar from his backpack and snapped a piece off before offering it to the small Digimon. Chibimon blinked at the offering before taking it hesitantly.
"What is it?"
"It's chocolate. This is my favourite kind because there's strawberry cream in the middle." Daisuke said as he broke off his own piece and ate it with a smile. Chibimon looked at Daisuke's happy face as he sniffed his own piece before bravely taking a nibble.
His red eyes widened before the chocolate was gone in a matter of seconds leaving Chibimon with a brown mask over his lips.
"Yummy!" Chibimon squeaked happily as he rubbed his belly making Daisuke laugh.
"It is, isn't it?" Daisuke agreed before pulling out his sketchbook and his metal pencil case much to Chibimon's confusion.
"What are you doing now, Daisuke?" Chibimon questioned as he pulled himself up Daisuke's back until he was resting on his head. Daisuke barely reacted, Chibimon may have been half his height but he was very light.
"I'm going to draw something."
"Draw something?" Chibimon asked before Daisuke opened his sketchbook and showed him. Chibimon's eyes widened as he took all the different pictures that Daisuke had drawn.
The pictures weren't masterpieces but they were much better than any other six-year-old could come up with. Daisuke's ability had always been very advanced but he was only six years old and had stubby fingers making it difficult to hold things properly, but that was a common thing in children his age.
Still, Chibimon was very impressed.
"These are good Daisuke!" The small blue dragon praised causing the boy to blush as he flipped to a blank page.
"Thanks," Daisuke whispered quietly. He was never very good at taking compliments, he was just too shy especially when it came to strangers but Daisuke appreciated it none the less.
Silence fell between the two of them as Daisuke started to sketch the sea view in front of him with Chibimon watching on his head. It wasn't an awkward silence though, it was peaceful and relaxing. The sound of the waves was like a soothing lullaby and it wasn't long before Chibimon was lulled to sleep.
The silence was broken though by a horrible rumbling that came from the middle of the sea. Daisuke's eyes shot towards the ocean just in time to see a Digimon burst from it with a loud yell.
"Uh oh."
"So you're all Digimon?" Taichi asked in confirmation and the six Digimon grinned as they all nodded.
"That's right. Welcome to the Digital World, the home for us Digimon." Koromon happily greeted and the other Digimon followed his example.
"It's nice to meet you all. I'm Yagami Taichi and I'm 11 years old." Taichi introduced himself with his normal smirk.
"I'm Takenouchi Sora and I'm 11 too. I'm also a classmate and teammate of Tai's." Sora smiled kindly as she bowed just as she was taught too.
"I'm Ishida Yamato. I'm also 11 years old but I'm in a different class to Taichi and Sora." Yamato said simply as he kept a hand on Takeru's shoulder.
"I'm Takaishi Takeru and I'm 8 years old but I go to a different school to my Onii-san and his friends." Takeru greeted happily before giggling as Tokomon tackled him the ground and snuggle under his chin.
"I'm Izumi Koushirou. I'm 10 years old but I skipped a grade so I'm in the same class as Taichi-san and Sora-san." Koushirou told the Digimon not even blinking at admitting to being pushed forward to a higher class.
"I'm Kido Joe and I'm 12 years old. I'm actually a 1st Grader in Junior High so I go to a different school to the rest of the group." Joe finished the introduction with a shaky smile and a bow.
"That means he's our senior." Sora helpfully whispered to the Digimon just in case they got confused by what they called Joe which mixed between 'Joe-san' and Joe-senpai'.
"Is that everyone? I feel like we're missing someone." Yamato pointed out causing Sora to gasp as she looked at Taichi.
"Where's Daisuke-chan?" She demanded but Taichi just shrugged with a frustrated look.
"I don't know. He wasn't here when I woke up and it was too dangerous to look for him by myself." Taichi explained causing Sora to give him a strange look. She was sure that sounded like something Koushirou would say, not Taichi. She guessed that Taichi was planning on looking but was stopped by the smaller boy.
"Tachikawa-san is missing too." Joe pointed out helpfully as Taichi did a quick head count.
"You mean the girl with the pink hat, right?" Sora questioned before biting her lip when Joe nodded silently. She didn't think Mimi was up to even survive an hour in a place like this, in fact, Sora was sure Daisuke was safer than Mimi here.
Just to confirm her thought a shrill scream reached the ears of the six children causing them to look to the left sharply.
"Tachikawa-san! We're over here!" Joe called out helpfully just as Mimi burst through the bushes screaming all the way. Not far behind her was another creature but this one kind of looked like a flower bulb with two leaves on her head. She was green and white with beautiful amber eyes.
"Help me please!" Mimi cried as she ran to the group just as a loud crash echoed from behind her. Taichi gasped before he looked over at Koushirou to see the boy had gone white.
"It's Kuwagamon!" Koromon whimpered as he and his fellow Digimon jumped into their partners' arms just as the insect Digimon crashed through the trees with a loud screech.
"Run!" Taichi ordered and the other six children were quick to comply. The children took off straight into the forest with Kuwagamon following not far behind them.
Luck seemed to be on their side though as suddenly the insect Digimon turned away from them and flew in a different direction causing them all to sigh in relief.
Slightly breathless Taichi took in their surroundings and quickly realised that if they would continue to go forward they would run right off the edge of a cliff.
"Are you alright, Mimi?" The new Digimon asked quietly to the pink-clad girl who was on her knees and rubbing her eyes as she sniffed.
"Y-yes. Thank you for protecting me Tanemon." Mimi whispered gratefully causing the plant Digimon to smile happily in return.
"We might have to turn around," Taichi announced as he carefully walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down.
"Be careful Tai." Sora warned but Taichi had always been very nimble on his feet thanks to all the years he played soccer. Taichi looked down before shaking his head at the group making it clear, there was no other option but back.
"Where?" Yamato demanded before a roar from the edge of the mountain made all the kids freeze in fear. It was Sora who recovered first.
"Get away Taichi!" She screamed just as Kuwagamon burst through the edge of the cliff with a screech causing Taichi to fall down on his behind.
Kuwagamon growled and hissed as he stared at the eleven-year-old in front of him, his claws ready to shred him to pieces. Taichi couldn't move, he could only stare in fear as Kuwagamon descended upon him.
"TAICHI!"
Daisuke yelped as he threw himself down onto the sand just in time to avoid a huge spray of water that was so strong, it actually knocked down one of the trees behind them.
"Chibimon what is that?" Daisuke cried out while staring at the creature fearfully.
Its main body was bright pink with blue spots scattered all over its skin, it's hand were similar to the coral reef that was obviously used for walking under the sea. It had a massive grey spiked shell sitting on it's back, green squiggly bits on top of its head and a black eye patch over its right eye.
"That's Shellmon, an Adult Mollusc Digimon. It changes it's shell when it gets too big and is usually a very calm Digimon unless someone invades his territory." Chibimon summarised quickly as he continued to grip Daisuke's hair tightly.
"I guess that's why he's angry then." Daisuke chuckled shakily before Shellmon roared loudly and pulled himself onto the beach.
"HYDRO PRESSURE!" Shellmon shouted as he lowered his head before firing a huge wave of water that Daisuke barely dodged.
"Stop attacking Daisuke!" Chibimon shouted as he went to attack the angry Digimon but Daisuke quickly caught him in his arms.
"Are you stupid?! You can't someone that size on!" Daisuke yelled as he started to run down the beach, forgetting his backpack and sketchbook that was still sitting on the ground.
"But I gotta protect you Daisuke! That's what I was born for! My job is to keep you safe." Chibimon proclaimed proudly causing the six-year-old to look down at him in shock.
"Chibimon..."
Daisuke suddenly screamed as something wrapped around his ankle and pulled him off his feet. Chibimon hit the ground with a thump as Daisuke's were wrapped tightly to his side by Shellmon's tentacle hair.
"Daisuke!" Chibimon yelled as Shellmon slowly tightened his grip on the small boy causing him to cry out.
"L-let me go!" Daisuke whimpered as he kicked his legs helplessly but Shellmon simply growled before he tightened his grip once more, slowly cutting off the boy's airway.
"Let him go! HYPER SLAM!" Chibimon shouted before his body became a blur of blue and white that proceeded to hit Shellmon in all directions. Unfortunately, the attacks were little more than an annoyance for the Digimon and it wasn't long before Shellmon growled and slapped Chibimon to the ground with another one of his tentacles.
"Chibimon!" Daisuke screamed as he watched the small blue dragon slam to the sand harshly. Chibimon whimpered before he shakily pushed himself to his feet, his eyes scrunched up slightly in pain.
"A-ACID BUBBLES!" Chibimon called out before he jumped in the air and spat a mouthful of rainbow bubbles straight into Shellmon's face. One managed to pop right in his eye causing him to scream.
With a roar of annoyance, Shellmon swung his right arm up and slammed it straight into the small Digimon forcing him to once again land face first in the sand.
"No! Chibimon run away! Please!" Daisuke shouted before crying out as Shellmon tightened his hold, which had loosened slightly in his attack. To Daisuke it felt like he was being crushed, it was getting hard to breath and everything hurt.
"No!" Chibimon shouted as he forced himself up once more and stared into Daisuke's watery eyes in determination.
"No! I won't leave you, Daisuke! I'm going to save you...I'm going to save you because you're my friend!" Chibimon proclaimed loudly. Daisuke's eyes were wide in awe.
"Chibimon..." Daisuke whispered before screaming as Shellmon started squeezing him tightly. Tears rolled down the boy's cheeks as he tried to gasp for breath without success.
"Let Daisuke go!" Chibimon screamed as he prepared to charge forward once more. What none of them noticed though was the device that had fallen out of the sky, which was now attached to Daisuke's shorts, was now blinking with a bright white light.
"ACID BUBBLES!" Koromon shouted as he jumped in front of Taichi and spat a mouthful of rainbow straight at the red beetle Digimon. Kuwagamon hissed as they stung but they didn't do as much damage as the little Digimon hoped.
"Koromon!" Taichi shouted as he scrambled to his feet just as Kuwagamon slapped the small Digimon to the ground with a loud screech. Taichi was quick to pick him up before taking a few steps back so he was closer to the others.
"Oh, Koromon..." Taichi whispered sadly as he spotted a small but deep slash on Koromon's side, blood quickly coated Taichi's white gloves and the boy's heart clenched.
"I told you...I would protect you..." Koromon whispered with a brave smile but he couldn't help but whimper when Taichi put pressure on his side.
"What are we going to do? At this rate, he's going to kill us all." Yamato pointed out as he kept a tight grip on Takeru as Tsunomon and Tokomon stood in front of them in protection. Sora swallowed hard as she tightened her grip on Yokomon as the Digimon squirmed in her hold.
"We fight!" Motimon retorted causing Koushirou to look down at him shock.
"Excuse me? You can't take on that thing; for goodness sake look what it did to Koromon!" Koushirou cried out as he waved his hand over to the injured Digimon, who was now squirming in Taichi's grip.
"We have to fight! Our job is to protect you; we've got to keep you safe!" Bukamon shouted seriously as Tanemon nodded in full agreement.
"You too Tanemon?!" Mimi gasped as the little green Digimon joined the rest of them slowly forming a solid wall in front of the children.
"We're not going to run anymore!" Tokomon growled as he barred his teeth and Tsunomon nodded as the two joined up with the others.
"We're going to keep you safe!" He declared proudly as Yokomon finally managed to squirm out of Sora's hold and stood beside him.
"I'm sorry Taichi..." Koromon whispered before biting down hard on the boy's hand forcing him to drop the Digimon with a yelp.
"Koromon! No!" Taichi shouted as Koromon charged forward with the other Digimon following him fearlessly.
Helplessly the children all called out, begging the Digimon to stop but the Digimon ignored their calls.
Someone didn't though.
In complete union, the devices that had fallen out of the sky started beeping loudly before flashing with bright white lights. It happened suddenly, all seven Baby Digimon suddenly started to glow a bright white before they spun in place starting off slow before picking up speed.
"Koromon...Digivolve too...AGUMON!" Koromon had now changed into a light orange dinosaur that reached Taichi's waist in height. He had claws on his three fingers and the same on his toes, his fangs were still the same but his eyes were now a dark green.
"Tsunomon...Digivolve too...GABUMON!" Tsunomon had now changed into a yellow-skinned lizard with a bluish-white pelt with navy blue markings. He had a yellow horn at the top of his head and his belly was blue with unusual pink markings.
"Yokomon...Digivolve too...BIYOMON!" Yokomon was now a small pink bird with blue-tipped feathers on her head and a ring on one of her legs. At the tip of her wings were three pink claws.
"Motimon...Digivolve too...TENTOMON!" Motimon had now changed into a ladybug. He has six legs in total, the front being long arms with grey claws at the end. He has large, green eyes and two yellow antennae reaching out from his head. His wing-case is covered with grey spines.
"Tanemon...Digivolve too...PALMON!" Tanemon had kept her plant-like appearance but now she had light green skin with purple-tipped claws. She has a pink flower with a yellow centre on her head. Finally, she has a small tail and small bumps lining her back.
"Bukamon...Digivolve too...GOMAMON!" Just like Palmon, Bukamon has kept his seal-like appearance but he has white fur, with no nose and has long ears, purple markings, orange-red mane, large claws, a short tail, and a W-shaped smile with two pointed teeth protruding out.
"Tokomon...Digivolve too...PATAMON!" Tokomon was now a small flying guinea pig-like creature with light blue eyes and bat-like wings, which could possibly be his ears. He has a short, stubby tail. His underside was a light cream colour, while his back and head are orange.
The lights soon faded away revealing the Digimon's new forms to not only the seven children present but also to Kuwagamon, who growled lowly in response.
Daisuke's eyes were wide as he watched Chibimon glow a bright white before he started to spin slowly in place. As he picked up speed Daisuke felt Shellmon loosen his grip enough for the six-year-old to breathe much easier.
"This is..." Daisuke whispered as he remembered seeing the same thing happen to Koromon two years ago.
"Chibimon...Digivolve too...V-MON!" Chibimon had now changed from a small blue dragon who could only just reach Daisuke's waist, to a humanoid lizard-like creature who seemed to be a couple of inches taller than him. His skin was still the same blue and white and his head was still large with two conical fleshy appendages attached to the back. A small horn was resting where his nose would be.
He has large, 5-fingered hands with short white claws, as well as 3-toed feet with stout claws. Finally, there was a yellow V-shaped mark between his two bright red eyes.
"V HEADBUTT!" V-Mon suddenly called out as the V mark on his forehead seemed to glow with an orange light, the lizard then proceeds to charge forward and ram his head straight into Shellmon's chest with a loud crunch.
Shellmon screamed as he was thrown backwards into the sea. Daisuke fell from Shellmon's grip with a cry straight into V-Mon's waiting arms.
"I told you I'd save you." V-Mon said with a cheeky smirk and despite everything, Daisuke couldn't help but giggle. Behind them, the water began to bubble.
"What?!" Joe yelped as he fell to the ground in shock.
"They...changed..." Sora pointed out weakly as the group stared at the once weak looking Digimon that had tried to protect them. Now all eight looked strong, strong enough to keep them safe.
"Digivolve...?" Taichi whispered to himself quietly as he stared at Koromon's new form. Near the cliff edge, Kuwagamon screeched in a challenge, not at all scared by his new opponents.
"Let's go," Agumon said quickly taken the leader roll. The other Digimon nodded in agreement before they all charged forward straight towards Kuwagamon.
"POISON IVY!" Palmon as her purple claws turned into long strips of Ivy that she quickly used to wrap around Kuwagamon's waist and arms. Kuwagamon screeched again as he struggled against the Digimon's hold causing her to wince.
"I won't be able to hold him for long!" Palmon cried out as she struggled to keep her footing. Patamon and Gomamon jumped in front of her both taken huge deep breaths.
"AIR SHOT!"
"WATER SHOT!"
Patamon spat out a huge air bubble that shot through the air at an incredible speed before striking Kuwagamon in the chest causing him to flinch backwards a step.
Gomamon's attack ended up being very similar to Patamon's but instead of being air he spat out water bubble that struck Kuwagamon on the chest as wall causing him to screech as he backed away once more.
Palmon suddenly then let go of the beetle Digimon just as Tentomon started charging electricity between his wings.
"PETIT THUNDER!" He shouted just before taken full advantage of Kuwagamon's soaked set and blasted him with a small thunderbolt. The water was quick to conduct the electricity and Kuwagamon screeched as he shook for a second before shaking it off.
Completely furious Kuwagamon growled before he slashed his claws as the group of Digimon causing them to jump back.
"A-amazing..." Koushirou whispered as the group continued to watch the group of Digimon fight to protect them.
"They're actually beating him..." Taichi pointed out in shock as Kuwagamon tried to slash at the Digimon once more without success.
"Ready?" Agumon questioned as Gabumon and Biyomon quickly jumped to his side with determined nods. Agumon slowly took a deep breath as he allowed gas to build up in the back of his throat.
"BABY FLAME!" He growled before allowing the gas to light and blasting a small but powerful fireball straight towards the beetle Digimon.
"PETIT FIRE!" Gabumon shouted before a spray of blue fire, looking very similar to water, blasted from the back of his throat. Biyomon flapped her wings as she hovered in the air as they seemed to glow a light green.
"MAGICAL FIRE!" She shouted as a bright grin twister of fire appeared in between her flapping wings and shot off straight towards Kuwagamon.
The baby flame was the first to strike Kuwagamon but the Petit Fire wasn't far behind causing the Digimon to screech. When Magical Fire struck in the same spot he didn't have a chance to react before his entire chest burst into flames.
With a loud and piercing scream Kuwagamon threw himself off the cliff and a couple of seconds later the children heard the loud splash of him falling into the fast paced river below.
The seven Digimon stayed tense for a couple of seconds, waiting to see if Kuwagamon would make a return, but when all stayed silent they relaxed and looked back towards the children. It was silent before they all charged forward with cheers and smiles.
"That was amazing! I can't believe you managed to beat him!" Taichi laughed as he pulled Agumon into a tight hug that the dinosaur Digimon was more than happy to return. Taichi blinked as his hand touched Agumon's side though and felt cold skin.
"Hey what happened to your cut?" Taichi questioned as he pulled back and lifted Agumon's arm to take a look for himself. All that was left now though was a faded scar, as if the wound had happened many weeks ago.
"It's because of you Taichi! I was healed when I got strong, and it was all because of you!" Agumon explained with a grin as Taichi allowed his arm to drop back to his side.
"Because of me?"
"It's because you believe it us," Biyomon explained softly as she hugged Sora's leg with her wings. The girl blinked as she petted the bird Digimon's head lightly.
"I don't understand. Why are we so important to you?" Sora questioned as she looked around at all the Digimon who were now getting a different type of congratulations from the children.
"Well, that's because you're our partners. We've already explained this to you." Tentomon buzzed as he flies around Koushirou's head happily.
"Partners?" Taichi questioned but before Agumon could answer the cliff gave a forcibly shake sending the kids to the ground. Taichi stayed low as he looked around cautiously trying to spot what had made them fall.
"Are you alright, Takeru?" Yamato asked as he quickly scanned his Otōto for injuries and breathed a quiet sigh when he realised he was fine. But then he frowned when Takeru didn't answer him.
"Takeru? What's the matter?" Yamato demanded as he saw the small blonde staring at the ground not far from them with terrified blue eyes. The boy shook in fear as he pointed ahead of him.
"Onii-chan…" He whimpered. Yamato barely was able to hold back a scream as he spotted the cause for the shake attack seconds ago. Starting from one edge of the cliff and running to the other side was a very long line. The cliff shook once more and the line quickly became a crack that started to get bigger.
"Grab hold of somebody!" Yamato shouted as he threw himself over Takeru just as the crack split in half, sending the small edge that the children were sitting on into the air.
Gravity took hold in a matter of seconds and the children found themselves screaming as they fell down towards the rushing river far below them.
'Daisuke!' Taichi thought desperately to himself just as the whole group crashed into the river with a loud splash.
The peaceful moment between Daisuke and V-Mon was shattered when Shellmon burst from the sea with a furious roar.
"Get back Daisuke!" V-Mon ordered as he jumped in front of his smaller partner but before either of the two could react Shellmon lowered his head slightly revealing a small hole that was right in the middle of his head.
"HYDRO PRESSURE!" Shellmon shouted before blasting the two with a powerful wave of water that sent them flying into the sand. Daisuke coughed as he tried to rub the water from his eyes.
"V-Mon?" Daisuke whimpered as his vision finally cleared. The blue reptile though was unconscious completely soaked to the bone. Shellmon decided to take full advantage of V-Mon's injured state and grabbed the two in a tight tentacle grip.
"Let me go! V-Mon!" Daisuke shouted as he struggled to try to get to his injured friend but Shellmon simply growled. He slowly spun his head around before tossing his hair off to the right and releasing his grip on both Daisuke and V-Mon.
Daisuke screamed as he and V-Mon flew through the air but he was cut off when he crashed into the ocean with a loud splash.
Daisuke held a hand to his mouth as he held his breath, the water surrounded him threatening to end his life as he tried to swim to the surface. He couldn't bring the energy though and his desperate attempts to reach the surface started to slow down.

Digimon Levels
Fresh – Fresh Digimon are ones that have only just hatched from their Digieggs. They're harmless and weak, their attacks doing little more than tickle you.
Baby – Baby Digimon are the next the Digimon Digivolve into too. They now have more unique features and their attacks patch a bit more punch. They're still weak against Digimon who are a higher level than them though.
Child – Digimon who reach Child levels are now much bigger and more colourful, with friendship and love a Chosen Digimon will stay in their child form as long as they are not fighting. Their attacks can now do actual damage but if the Digimon is a higher level is won't do any good.
Adult – The Adult form of a Digimon is a form that every Digimon can reach after a lot of work. They are normally much bigger in size, but some do stay small, and they're attacks are incredibly strong.
Perfect – The Perfect form of a Digimon is a nearly impossible form to make without the help of a Chosen Child. With the help of their crests the Chosen Digimon are nearly unbeatable in power and strength, but if forced to Digivolve then it will have terrible consequences for both the Chosen Digimon and the Chosen Child.
Ultimate – An Ultimate level Digimon is almost on par to the Digimon Gods when it comes to power. They are incredible in both strength and appearance but the power is hard to control and not many Digimon can keep themselves sane when they reach this level. Only training and determination will keep a Digimon strong enough to fight the power that all Digimon crave.

And that's episode 1 over and done with! As you've worked out yes I have separated Daisuke from the group but it will only be for a couple of episodes.
I can't handle doing two different plot lines in the same episodes just yet but I wanted Daisuke to go through his own mini adventure seeing as he is pretty young. The Digital World is meant to mature these kids so I decided to give Daisuke a little head start.
Let's just say he will be meeting someone very familiar next episode who will be a great help to him and V-Mon, it will also have major consequences later on for Daisuke's emotional state.
Anyway, keep your opinions coming guys! I love reading your reviews and also some of your ideas you have for this. Don't be afraid to ask me questions either, I will happily answer what I can but please remember some things I do want to keep as a surprise for you guys.
Oh and just one more thing, I need a little help with Daisuke's Crest and what path I should take with it. Daisuke will obviously be getting the Crest of Miracles at some point but this is where I'm stuck, there's another Virtue I'm planning on Daisuke to inherit. The problem I'm having is which one should Daisuke get first?
Should he get the Crest of Miracles in this season? Or should he get a different Crest, which you'll be getting a hint about next episode? I do need help with this because while it doesn't change a major plot line in this story, it does change how I get to that and also the characters reaction to that point.
I've been really stuck on this for some time now because I'm trying to make this story able to smoothly go onto 02 when I get to that part. There's also the fact that Magnamon is an Armour Level Digimon and can only be summoned by a Digimental. I don't want to change that because of 02, there is another Digimon I can use if Daisuke gets the Crest of Miracles but I also have a Digimon planned for the other Crest.
So what do you guys think? The Crest of Miracles? Or the other Crest? Which would you prefer Daisuke to have?
I am willing to share a bit of the plot to help you with your decision but I don't want to make it public, if you want help then I'll PM you with a small spoiler of which way the story can go. Thanks for your help guys!
Oh and if anyone's willing to be my beta reader for this I would really appreciate it!
I'll see you next time!
