Goodbyes and The Departure.

Tai, Kari, and their parents.

Mrs. Kamiya was busy squeezing her two children in a tight hug, while Mr. Kamiya watched. "Mom and Dad, you know we have to do this. The fate of the world depends on it!" Kari said back. "No one else will." she said. "We know. We know." Mrs. Kamiya said as tears formed in her eyes. "But why does it always have to be you guys. Why do you always have to save the world?" she asked. "Like Kari said, because no one else is able." Tai said. "We can't stop you, can we?" Tai's dad said with sadness clear in his voice. "Not a chance." Tai responded. "Very well then, son. Give them hell." Mr. Kamiya said. "We will dad." Tai said.


Sora and her mom.

"We have to do this mom. We have to save the world." Sora said. "I know you have to Sora. I know, but I just can't be expected to be cool about this and send my only daughter off to battle some evil threatening the world." Miss. Takenouchi said. "There's no one else who will save us Miss. Takenouchi." Biyomon said to her best friend's mother.


Mimi and her dad.

"But can't you leave it up to someone else? You're to young to fight wars like these." Mimi's dad pleaded to his little princess. "Dad, I already fought in two wars. Me and Palmon know how to fight." Mimi said. "But.." he tried to say. Mimi cut him off. "No discussion dad. I'm leaving." she said.


TK, Matt, and their parents.

"Don't worry mom. Me and Matt will be fine." TK said "Yeah, we've done this before, remember?" Matt added to his brother's speech. "Let them go." Mr. Ishida said. "They know what they're doing. Unlike us" he added. Miss. Takashi looked a bit defeated. "Matt, take care of your little brother." she said. Matt nodded. She turned to TK. "TK make sure your brother doesn't do anything stupid." she said. "I will mom." TK said smirking. "Hey!" Matt yelled indignantly.


Izzy and his family.

"I'm sorry mom but I have to go." Izzy said honestly to his parents "We know you have to. And know that whatever happens we'll always love you." they said pulling him in to a hug. "I love you to mom and dad." he said. "Oh I hate teary goodbyes." Tentomon said. "Izzy, take care of yourself and your friends." Izzy's mom said. "And Tentomon, look after Izzy." Izzy's dad said to the bug-like creature. "I will." Tentomon said.


Davis, Jun, and their parents.

"No way. I will not have my son throw his life away fighting for some other world." Mr. Motomiya said. "But dad, how long do you think it will take before it spreads to this world?" Davis argued with his father. "You're not going, young man." Mr. Motomiya said. "I'm going dad whether you like it or not." Davis said, determination dripping from his voice. "Let him go dad." Jun suddenly said. "But..." Mr. Motomiya said. "No, dad. You have no idea what Veemon means to me. You and mom are always working, leaving Jun in charge. But all she does is stalk Matt." Davis interrupted. His parents and Jun stared at him in shock. He just shrugged and walked over to stand with Kari and her family.


Cody and his grandfather.

"Grandfather, I'm leaving for the digital world. We have to fight for the sake of the world." Cody said to the old man he saw as a father of sorts. "I understand Cody. I just hope you training with me will help you achieve victory." his grandfather said. They both bowed.


Yolei and her sister.

"You really have to go?" Momoe asked. "Yes Momoe. It's our 'destiny' to save the world." Yolei pushed her glasses up as they slipped to the tip of her nose. "Again." she said. They both hugged each other tightly.


Ken and his parents.

"Ken Ichijouji! You can not go fighting everything that comes along!" Mr. Ichijouji nearly yelled. "I have to dad, no one else will come to rescue us." Ken replied coolly. "I know." His father calmed down. "Ken, we love you and are so proud of you." Mrs. Ichijouji said pulling her only remaining son into a hug.


Joe and his brothers.

"You sure about this Joe?" Shin asked his little brother. "Absolutely. You know I want to help people. What better way then to save the world?" Joe said. "Well little brother, it appears that you've grown up. The old you would have peed his pants if he knew he would be fighting al those creatures. Again." Shuu said with a smile on his face. "What we're trying to say is…that we're proud of you." Shin spoke up again.


Takato, Ai, Mako, and their parents.

"You have become a fine man, son. We are so proud of you and love you very much." Mr. Matsuki said placing his hands on Takato's shoulders. Mrs. Matsuki was busy hugging Ai and Mako, but soon pulled away and stood up, walking to Takato."Honestly, between you and your father. It's a wonder my hair hasn't gone completely grey." she said pulling him into a hug. "I love you mom." he said. "I love you too. Since you didn't pack anything, your father and I packed you some clothes, a tooth brush, tooth paste, shampoo, soap, and your guitar for you." she said pulling away and passing him a backpack and a guitar case. "Mom." he said embarrassed.


Rika and her mother.

Mrs. Nonaka was holding Rika close to her. "I have to go, mom." Rika said. "I know, but I can't stop wishing you were still a baby that I could keep you at home safe." Mrs. Nonaka said. "Oh mom." Rika said. "But you're not. You've grown into a beautiful young woman. I love you so much and am so proud of you." Mrs. Nonaka said pulling away. "I love you too mom." Rika said.


Henry, Suzie, and their parents.

Exactly like Matt and TK's.


Kazu and his parents.

Just like Davis's minus the sibling.


Kenta and his mother.

Both cries and hug.


Jeri and her father.

See Mimi's.


Takuya, Shinya, and their parents.

Just like Matt and TK.


Zoe and her father.

See Mimi's.


Koji, Koichi, and their parents.

Just like Matt and TK.


Everyone else's are the same- besides Yoshi, Thomas, Nene, and Yuu- crying and parents asking siblings to look after each other.


"Well this is it." Tai said. "To get to the Digital World you have to run through the beam of light in the center of the room. Also to help protect yourselves if you ever get separated from your partners, when you go through you'll gain enhanced senses, and some basic attacks. Anyone who goes through the light with another at the same time, they will have a unison attack. Takato, you may need that level form, but don't worry the exess Digital Energy will allow you to control it." Gennai said. Takato paled slightly. "We go together. All of us." Tai said looking at the other goggleheads, making a mental note to ask Takato about what Gennai said. "Agreed." Davis, Takato, Takuya, Marcus, Mikey, and Tagiru said together. They joined hands and as one ran into the pillar of light.

"H-Hey! Wait up!" Sora exclaimed as she ran in after the seven boys and into the beam. "Well, here we go," Matt said, rushing into the beam as well. "Just like old times," Izzy chuckled. "Yeah! Time for some fun!" Mimi said excitedly. "Speak for yourself," Joe said with a smile as the three entered the beam.

"D-Davis wait up!" TK exclaimed. "Here we go again." Yolie and Kari said with a sigh. "Yep." Cody said with a smile. "And we wouldn't have it any other way." Ken laughed as they all followed their leader and mentors into the beam.

Rika just calmly walked into the beam. "Yahoo! I can't wait to see what the Digital World looks like now." Kazu said excitedly. "Yeah, this is going to be awesome!" Kenta added as they ran into the beam. "Ready Suzie?" Henry asked his sister. "Ready Henry." Suzie replied before going into the beam with her brother. "Ladies first." Ryo and Mako said to Ai and Jeri. "Nice try." Ai said sarcastically, making Jeri giggle. "Hey, can't blame us for trying." Ryo and Mako said as they entered the beam.

"Well guys, you all ready?" Koji asked. "Let's go." Chiaki, Teruo, and Teppei said firmly. "Yeah!" Tommy and Shinya exclaimed. "You know it." Zoe said with a wink. "You bet!" JP declared. "Sure." Koichi said with a smile. "The onward!" JP said as they ran into the beam.

"Well, let's get going then!" Kristy giggled as she followed. "And there he goes again." Yoshi groaned. "Not like you mind." Thomas said with a knowing smirk, making Yoshi blush. "S-Shut up!" She said, running into the beam. "You're so mean." Keenan laughed with Thomas as they ran into the beam as well.

"Well we don't want to be left behind." Angie giggled. "Let's do it then!" Jeremy said excitedly. The duo ran into the beam. "I see he hasn't changed a bit." Christopher sighed. Nene giggled. "Nope, and neither have you." she said. "She's got you there Christopher." Yuu shot back. Christopher rolled his eyes as he and Nene entered the beam. Airu, Yuu, Ren, and Ryouma just walked into the beam silently. All the digimon followed directly after their partner went through. Gennai chuckled slightly, then walked back into his house to watch their adventure with their families.
