Chapter 3- Project Digitizes

Part 1

A few days later in Japan-

In the road of Chōfu, Yusei Hikari and Trova Yamashiro were on their way to school while still talking about the events in the Digital World.

(Trova) "Wow, I'm still can't believe that you went to another world in the internet. I want to go there and explore the place myself!"

(Yusei) "But the dangers in the Digital World are real. Like a giant Digimon attacking you with no reason, parasite bugs or even natural disaster, that can happen to you."

(Trova) "I- I know that. I don't like the danger part but I still want to explore it. However, we don't know about the method of travelling back there. I know, the Digivice! It has opened the portal before, maybe it can do it again."

(Yusei) "Yeah, you might be right. Oh look, we made it to school. Let's talk about it later in class."

Both of them arrive at the school entrance and walked through the hallways when they noticed several students talking about something.

(Boy Student #1) "Hey, do you see her? She's a real beauty!"

(Boy Student #2) "You mean the exchange student? Yeah, she is a real looker! She also smart, too!"

(Boy Student #2) "I can't believe that kind of girl has transferred to this school. Foreign students are the best!"

(Girl Student #1) "Isn't she just a Japanese girl born in America? I can't believe the attention that the boys giving her."

(Girl Student #2) "I know, right? What a bunch of losers. They acted like they never seen a real live girl before."

Yusei and Trova heard varies of rumors about the exchange student when they were encounter by Anzu Akaihine along the way.

(Anzu) "Morning, you two… It is getting noisy around here, does it?"

(Yusei) "Yeah, we noticed it. What this commotion about an exchange student?"

Yusei saw that Anzu face turn sour after hearing him about the exchange student.

(Anzu) "You're properly talking about Hinata Orionis, huh? Hmph! She just a foreign exchange student from the United States who only going to spend few weeks in our school."

(Trova) "Wow, really? This is the first time I heard of it."

(Anzu) "I know! They just announce it today! Can you believe it?!"

(Yusei) "I also heard that she is an American-born Japanese. Is this true?"

(Anzu) "Actually she is half-Japanese. I heard that her mother is from Japan and her father is American but that's all I know about her parents. Anyway, this girl is 13 years-old, same age as us, but she is almost finished her middle school studies and is gifted in speaking not only in Japanese and English but other three languages as well."

(Yusei) "Wow, sounds like she is very smart."

(Anzu) "Oh come on! She only going to be here for a few minutes yet look all of the attention she has gotten! Just because she has good looks and grades doesn't make her popular suddenly!"

Both boys make wry smiles at their classmate jealous response to the new girl. That's when they notice the exchange student has appear walking in the hallway.

(Anzu) "Speaking of the devil, here she comes now."

Yusei and Trova looked at the direction where the new girl is, and both of them got a clear look of her appearance.

Hinata Orionis is wearing a uniform of their school, and her height is nearly the same as Yusei Anzu. She has shoulder-length black hair with a hime-cut and an expressionless face.

(Yusei) "That's her, huh… I think that she doesn't look interested of the attention she having."

(Trova) "Yeah, you're right… Although it doesn't show on her face, the atmosphere around her say it."

(Anzu) "Oh, what do you know about what girls are thinking! She just a show-off!"

As three of them are having a conversation, Hinata accidently drops her phone while walking into her class. Yusei realized it and went to pick it up as he looked more closely of the girl face.

Her face has a little black mole underneath her left eye, and her skin is cleanly white and smooth. Her face and posture seem more mature than most people Yusei have met.

Wow, she's more beautiful than I thought. Yusei thinking of that after seeing Hinata face. He realized that he is staring too much of her while holding her phone.

(Yusei) "Oh, I'm sorry! Here is your phone."

(This is Yusei attempt to say English words)

(Hinata) "Oh, thank you for that but I was trying to get it myself before but you show up and did it instead."

(Yusei) "Really? Sorry about that."

(Hinata) "Don't worry about it, and you did a good job speaking in English."

(They went back speaking Japanese)

(Yusei) "It was nothing. My dad went to America a few times because of his job so I learn a bit of English to help him out sometimes."

(Hinata) "I see. How very thoughtful of you."

Both of them started a conversation switching between Japanese and English sometimes. Anzu enviously looking at them thinking they are flirting while Trova merely curious of their conversation.

(Hinata) "By the way, I didn't ask for your name. My name is Hinata Orionis, and yours?"

(Yusei) "Oh, right. Forgot to introduce myself. I am Yusei Hikari, please to meet you."

After hearing his name Hinata eyes widen a little in surprise.

(Hinata) "Yusei… Hikari? Is it possible… that your father is Satou Hikari?"

(Yusei) "Huh? You knew my dad?"

Yusei become curious after hearing his dad name from Hinata and ask her a question, but she shook her head a little in response.

(Hinata) "... No, I'm read about him in some articles or newspaper. Actually now that you mention it, you do look a bit like him."

(Yusei) "Oh, I see. My dad does work at Spyrix Corp as one of its employees so he is well known sometimes, and I do have some features and looks from him."

(Hinata) "Yes, you and your father do have similar qualities with each other. Well, I better get to class then. Thank you again for getting my phone, and I hoped that we see each other again, Yusei Hikari."

Hinata went inside her class after ending the conversation with him, and Yusei is approached by his two classmate, Anzu and Trova.

(Anzu) "SO! Do you enjoy 'talking' with her? Especially how much she was flirting with you?"

(Trova) "Come on, Anzu! That doesn't look like flirting to me. They just having a friendly conversation."

(Yusei) "Yeah, lay off! With her high standards, she is way out of my league for someone like me."

(Trova) "She talks with a low voice, but she seem nice at least."

(Anzu) "Hmph! Boys!"

Three of them went to their class and seat at their appropriate desk when their teacher came in and start teaching. After a few periods, the bell rang and lunch break have started. Yusei and Trova sit next to each other and discuss their plan to go to the Digital World.

(Trova) "Okay, we may have a way to travel to the Digital World, but what about the computer? We need it in order to open the portal but where can we use it?"

(Yusei) "How about your house, Trova? We can use your computer to travel there."

Yusei suggest that but Trova immediately shook his head at his idea.

(Trova) "No good, how will I explain my parents if I suddenly disappear like that. They will freak out over this and call the police."

(Yusei) "You're right, same here. No way we will tell this about it without making them worry. How about the electronic shop again? One of its section is rarely visit by other people."

(Trova) "Maybe… Okay, let's do it. We'll meet again at the train station and headed out to Shinjuku after school."

(Yusei) "Sound like a plan. I'm worry about Agumon and Gabumon after that fight with Kuwagamon in the forest."

Both agree to head to the electronic shop to start their exploration to the Digital World but soon they will accidently bring a surprising companion to their journey.


Part 2

Meanwhile at the conference room of the Spyrix Corporation in New York-

The room is full of visitors from other countries and companies. Hajime Katsura is also here. He arrived to United States yesterday, and today he is about to announce his presentation.

(Katsura) "Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm proud to announce that our project will change the world and its future! This will revolutionize the age of humanity if this succeeds. Please welcome to the leading foreman of this project. Maxie Roman, please present your results."

Katsura gets off the pedestal and went back to his seat. Roman steps up and begin his presentation.

(Roman) "Thank you Mr. Katsura. Now guest, here is the details of Project Digitize."

Many guest were intentionally listening his speech of the project.

(Roman) "For many years mankind has struggle to create advance technologies that can benefit society like flying cars or advance medicines, but a few scientists have achieved the impossible while many have fallen and failed to reach it. Technology so great that they only thought to exist in fiction."

(Roman) "However, I am one of the few scientists that achieved the impossible. I have found a way to make one of the advanced technology become reality: teleportation."

Many guest were shocked of the results and some have not convinced about this project.

(Roman) "It seem that most of you have doubts about this. Very well, I will now show you of our work. Please follow me to the lab."

Roman lead the guests to the laboratory, and when he see that all of them were present he begin his next speech.

(Roman) "Gentlemen, this is where we conducted our experiments here, and this device is the key point of our project known as the Translaser which can turn matter into data and send it to cyberspace."

(Roman) "We already completed the first tests of our project: materializing computer data into our world. Now we will show you our latest result: transforming real objects into data."

Roman took out an apple and place it on the floor. Then he signaled the worker to start up the machine.

The worker activated the Translaser and he directed it to the apple. The tip of the machine lit up and then shot at the apple with a beam. The apple itself is turning into data and then disappear after that.

Roman walk to one of the computers and show the screen with an apple on it to his surprised visitors. Then one guest speak out his doubts about this performance.

(Guest #1) "I don't believe this, this must be a trick! You properly set up this whole thing up!"

After hearing that other guests also think this is a scam and complain to Roman about this but he remain calm against their accusing.

(Roman) "Men, start up the next procedure."

The worker activated the Translaser again and the machine let out a beam to the floor. The apple on the computer starts to fade and then appear on the same spot where the apple disappear. Roman picked up the apple and toss it to the guest.

(Roman) "Now do you still think it is a scam, sir?"

The guest look over the apple in every corner and feel shocked that this is indeed a real apple. Only Hajime Katsura remain confident of this ordeal while others were amazed by the possibility of teleportation.

(Roman) "Gentlemen, this is Project Digitize, the factor that will give humanity to a bright future. Imagine this: Humans travel all over the world through cyberspace using this technology, creating resources made from data, and then colonizing other worlds in the network."

Most of them became confused at that last statement while others were shocked.

(Roman) "That right, gentlemen. During our experiments we have unexpectedly discovered a world made out of data and currently researching this new world."

All of the guest become more amazed that there is a world inside their network, even Hajime Katsura who is also shocked as he wasn't inform with this.

(Roman) "Now I will introduce to our leading researcher of our project. My boy, please come here."

After hearing his cue, Oscar comes to Roman side and stand next to him.

(Oscar) "Hello, nice to meet you all… My name is Oscar Valorand."

Some of the people have already heard of him as a young prodigy from the Stockholm Royal University of Science so many people were surprised that he is in charge of research of the project.

(Roman) "I invited Mr. Valorand to our company in order to understand this digitize world. Thanks to his knowledge, we have enough preparations and understanding to explore this new world in the web."

Another guest anxiously speak out his question.

(Guest #2) "Is this experiment safe for human to use yet?"

(Roman) "We have yet to start an experimentation on humans using teleportation. However I will give out a full schedule of the next tests of Project Digitize. That is the end of our presentation. Thank you all for coming."

Many guest were satisfied at the result of the presentation and leave the lab. After Roman saw the last guest leaving, he was called by one of the security guards of Spyrix Corp.

(Guard #1) "Sir, we have found Kelvin Diamond location. He is last seen on the second floor walking into your office."

(Roman) "Very good, man. It is time to exterminate a 'rat' from our company."

Kelvin is currently searching through the files inside a drawer in Roman office. He took out his phone and make a call to his accomplice.

(Kelvin) "Satou, I found some proof that he is connected to an organization that specialize in cyber crime and doing illegal experimentations. I'm going to take pictures of the files and then-"

(Roman) "Mr. Diamond, what are you doing in my office?"

"!?" Kelvin becomes shocked before he realized too late that his phone was taken from him and Roman ended the phone call and looked at its call history.

(Roman) "I see… Your phone history has a number of calls from Satou Hikari and Kyoko Shiramine. I expected they were involved in this."

(Kelvin) "Mr. Roman! I didn't realize you are here! I was just-"

(Roman) "No excuses can save you this time, Diamond. I already known that you and Satou are conspiring against me and our company for a long time. This is proof enough for your treason. Guards! Arrest this man at once!"

Security guards came running in the office on cue and before he knew, Kelvin is restricted by two guards as his arms being tied behind his back.

(Kelvin) "Agghh! Roman! You won't getting away with this! I already knew about your real plans in the Digital World. I already send numerous files to Kyoko in order to stop you and your genocide!"

(Roman) "Hmph! I already make plans to deal with that. After I'm done with you, Satou Hikari and Kyoko are next! Guards! Take him away this instant!"

Kelvin can only helplessly struggle as he's being carried off by the security.

In Japan-

After school has ended, Yusei and Trova headed to the train station and went back to Shinjuku. Then they get off the train and walking through the streets until they stopped at the electronic shop again.

(Yusei) "Good, there's not a lot of customers in the store today. This makes it easier not to be seen by people and scared them off."

(Trova) "Yeah, you're right about that. I don't want to cause a commotion and make this complicated for us. Let's go. How about we go to the same spot where you got sucked in."

Both agree to that course of action and arrive at the hallway where Yusei first got sucked into the portal and arriving at the Digital World.

(Yusei) "So… now what? I know that the Digivice can help me open a portal, but I don't know how to open it."

(Trova) "How about try holding it facing toward the screen?"

Yusei nodded and held up his Digivice in front of the laptop. Suddenly the device react and a portal opens up in front of them.

(Trova) "Yes, it works! The portal has open!"

(Yusei) "Yeah, it was easy. And looked, the portal seem more stable than last time so this makes it easier to travel."

(Anzu) "What the heck are you guys doing!? And what's all this!?"

(Yusei & Trova) "Huh!?"

Both of their excitement were cut-shorted and turn their heads in shocked at the person behind them. It is Anzu Akaihine that is standing before them in a panicked state.

(Yusei) "Anzu, what are you doing here!?"

(Anzu) "That should be my question to you! I was shopping in the area to buy some cute clothes when I saw you two entering the shop. When I became curious and follow you inside the shop, I saw what you guys doing and this thing appear! Tell me, what the heck is this!? And what are you guys trying to do?!"

(Trova) "A- Anzu, calm down. T- This is just a trick playing your eyes."

(Anzu) "Don't lie to me! I can see it clearly in front of me! Spill it out already! And don't try lying to me again."

(Yusei) "Tch, what to do about this situation? She is not going to ignore this, and I don't think she will believe the truth either. What to do…?"

The boys are trying to think what to say to her when Yusei feel the same sensation from before.

(Yusei) "Whoa! This feeling… I'm getting sucked in already!?"

(Trova) "Yusei! Your body is turning transparent again! Does that mean you're going to the Digital World?"

(Anzu) "Wh-Wh-What! Yusei, your body!? It's disappearing! What's going on around here?!"

Trova and Anzu are panicking when they saw Yusei body is turning into data. When half of his body is already transparent, both of them each grab Yusei's arm and try to pull him away from the portal but...

(Trova) "What!? My hands are turning transparent, too! This is bad!"

(Anzu) "Aaahhh! I'm disappearing! Help! Somebody, Help!"

They saw that their bodies are also turning into data and start screaming in confusion. Yusei tries to calm them down.

(Yusei) "Calm down, guys! You're going to make things wor-"

Yusei didn't finished his sentence when all of them have turned into data and get sucked into portal…


Part 3

(Yusei) "Uggh… looks like I'm back here again. Only this time with company instead."

(Trova) "Argh… I felt dizzy…"

(Anzu) "Ow, ow, ow… My butt hurts… and my head is feeling fuzzy…"

All three of them let out complaints about their rough landing into the Digital World. Yusei got up first and surveying their surroundings.

The area they're on is near a large mountain in File Island. The mountain is called Mt. Infinity, one of the tallest and largest mountains in the Digital World. Its peak is above the cloud lines and is covered in a pile of snow.

After checking the area and saw that there is no danger at a moment, Yusei relax his guard a little and check how his friends were doing. What he saw was-

(Trova) "Wow! So this is the Digital World, huh!? Look at the sky, I can see a shining globe up there! Is that the sun? No, it looks like a digital format of Earth. I can't believe that I'm in another world!"

(Anzu) "Where the heck am I?! Why am I outside in the middle of nowhere?! How do I get here? I was at the shop and then you guys- Hey, tell me what is going on here!?"

Trova excitedly let out his delight as his curious nature take hold of him when he realized that he is in the Digital World. However, Anzu reaction is the complete opposite as she shouting out questions in fear and anger.

Yusei let a sigh in resignation as he has no choice but to tell her the truth now that she is here by accident.

(Yusei) "Okay Anzu, you win. I tell you all about it but I need you to stay calm and listen to me very carefully."

(Anzu) "All right, I'm all ears now. So tell me what's going on?"

(Yusei) "This is going to be an unbelievable story but it's all truth. First, I'll tell you where we are. You see, we're in the Digital World-"

Yusei tells Anzu about his first experiences in the Digital World, creatures known as Digimon, how he got here, about the Digivice, etc.

When he finished his story, he saw that Anzu face is making an incredulous expression.

(Anzu) "That's crazy! You're telling me that we are in a different world?! And you want to find those two Digimon-things you called Agumon and Gabumon in order to make sure that they okay?!"

(Yusei) "It is unbelievable, but you being here is living proof."

(Anzu) "Then send me back! I don't want to be a part of this so let's go back to our world! You have gone back before so do it now!"

(Yusei) "Uh… Sorry, I don't exactly know how I did it before. I know now that I can use the Digivice to enter the Digital World using a computer, but I don't see a computer around here. I think the Digivice did it automatically so I have no clue what I was doing."

(Anzu) "What! You've got to be kidding me! Does this mean that we're stuck here forever?!"

(Trova) "A- Anzu, calm down-"

(Anzu) "Be quiet, Trova! I can't stay here! I got friends and family back home! I'm not like you who want to go an exploration like a little kid!"

(Yusei) "Anzu! He's not like that!"

(Anzu) "I don't want this! I'm stuck on a weird place with two boys who recklessly drag me along without knowing how to get home! This sucks."

Anzu lets out her complaints like a tantrum kid, and Yusei and Trova don't know how to deal with this since most of her complaining are somewhat true. After seeing that she has calm down a little, Trova start explaining to her of their plan.

(Trova) "Sorry, Anzu. We felt guilty of bringing you here but it was an accident. We don't know what will happen next but we have to stay calm and think of a plan."

(Yusei) "Yeah, I'm sorry, too. We have to stick together now in order to get back home. How about we check more around the area and see what we can find."

(Anzu) "...Okay. I'm done crying now. Let's go. Better doing something to get me out of here than doing nothing."

After Anzu reluctantly agree to their plan, the group start walking through the path in front of them. When they see a sign up ahead, they rush to it only to find that it is written in an unknown language.

(Yusei) "What this? Some kind of secret codes?"

(Trova) "Don't know… It must be written in computer codes but I never seen codes like this before…"

Trova is looking at the strange characters, trying to understand them when suddenly Yusei Digivice is starting to respond.

(Yusei) "Huh? My Digivice… It's acting up again!"

(Trova) "Take it out then. Let see what it does this time."

Yusei take out his Digivice from his pocket and then a screen pop-up from the device. What on the holographic screen is the same characters from the sign. Each character is turning into English and Japanese words in seconds.

(Yusei) "Cool! This thing also has a translation function. This is a very handy device."

(Anzu) "Well I got to admit it. This device is very useful except the part it brought us here in the first place, but it is still useful."

(Trova) "Yeah, we were lucky to have it with us or else we'll get lost in this world. Oh look, it is done translating! Let's see what it saids."

The group take a look at the screen after it's finished translating the characters. It said:

Primary Village

"Village of Beginnings"

(Yusei) "Primary… Village? Is that the name of the place?"

(Trova) "Hey, Yusei… You told me before that you met Agumon and Gabumon at their village. Is this it?"

(Yusei) "No… This is not the same one I went before since it is not near this mountain. It must be a different village in the island."

(Anzu) "Uh, guys… Not to interrupt your conversation there, but I saw something floating over there."

Yusei and Trova looked at the direction that Anzu has pointed and saw a something like a bubble rising over the distance.

(Yusei) "Could that thing came from the village…? Let's check it out."

Yusei group headed toward the direction where the bubbles are hovering over the place. When they have arrived at their destination they were stunned at the scenery of the place.

The village looks like… a nursery playground.

The landscape there is consists of large green fields filled with huge stuffed building blocks with the size of buildings, trees with toys and stuffed animals hanging from their branches, and large, soft, spongy, hills that looked fun to bounce on. The field is also covered with Digi-Eggs in a row with some of them are hatched.

The residents are just little Digimon playing around the field. As Yusei checked his Digivice, he discovered that most of them are Fresh Level Digimon while few are In-Training Level.

(Trova) "Woah! Those thing are Digimon?! They look so cute and harmless."

(Yusei) "Well, I guess these guys are kind of like babies or something. There are different kinds of Digimon, you know? I wonder this place is some sort of nursery home?"

(Anzu) "These guys are the one you called Digimon…? They look… so adorable! Oh, look at those soft, pudgy skin and those cute little eyes! I want to cuddle them!"

Anzu became enchanted at the image of the baby Digimons and headed towards them in fast motion.

(Yusei) "Wait, Anzu!? Don't go run off like that! You're going to scare them away!"

Yusei tries to warn her but it appears that she didn't hear his warning as she continues sprinting towards the little Digimons. She still running to the little ones until something came and blocked her way.

(Small red Digimon) "Stop! Who are you and what are you going to do in this village?"

Anzu stopped her tracks and stared in bewilderment as she noticed a small red Digimon is standing her way. The Digimon is standing in all four legs and has 9 tails.

(Small red Digimon) "I said who are you and what are your business here?!"

(Anzu) "A- AhhhAhh…"

Anzu is unable to answer his question as she is frozen in fear when she saw sparks coming off from it's tail.

(Yusei) "Wait! Calm down, er, whatever you are! This is just a misunderstanding!"

(Trova) "Yeah, please calm down, mister! We don't have any harm to these critters!"

The boys saw the situation is getting bad so they rushed to Anzu side and talked to the red Digimon. Yusei looked at his Digivice for it's identity.

Digimon: Elecmon

Level: Rookie

Attribute: Data

(Elecmon) "So… Who are you people? Why do you come to this village?"

(Yusei) "Sorry about that, mister! We're just kids who got lost in this area, and we're trying to find a way home when we saw the sign and thought that we might get some help here with the locals."

(Trova) "Yeah, that right. We don't want to cause trouble here, sir. When we arrived at the village, Anzu became too excited and want to hug them so she took off in a hurry. Yusei tries to warn her but-"

(Elecmon) "Hold on… Yusei?"

Elecmon stopped his attack all of the sudden and tilted his head in confusion.

(Yusei) "Yes, that is my name, sir… I'm Yusei Hikari."

(Elecmon) "Yusei… Hikari… Oh! Are you the human friend that Agumon and Gabumon talking about?"

(Yusei) "You know about Agumon and Gabumon!? Are they okay? where are they now?"

Yusei is surprised that Elecmon knew about those two and asked questions in a hurry.

(Elecmon) "Woah, hold on! Now you need to calm down for a bit! I'm surprised that you have appeared in this village after what Agumon and Gabumon telling me before. Lets sit near a tree over there to talk some things out."


Part 4

After settling their dispute and reaching an agreement, Elecmon and Yusei group headed toward the tree that Elecmon recommended to discuss some things to each other. When three of them sit on the ground, they realized that it is elastic as they were bounced a little for a while.

(Elecmon) "Sorry about that earlier, where are my manners? I am Elecmon, the caretaker of Primary Village."

(Yusei) "Hi there, Elecmon. I already told you that my name is Yusei Hikari, and these two are my friends, Trova and Anzu."

(Trova) "Hello, Mr. Elecmon. I am Trova Yamashiro. Sorry about our friend here."

(Anzu) "I- I'm Anzu Akaihine… I'm really sorry about my act earlier, but I just want to cuddle the little guys, not to hurt them."

Anzu express her apologies to Elecmon but he laughs it off and shook his head.

(Elecmon) "Ha ha ha! I'm the one who should be sorry. Normally I'm just a reasonable fella, but recents attacks have been happening all over the island so I keep my guard up to protect the young one in this village."

(Yusei) "Recent attacks?"

(Elecmon) "Yeah… Few villages got attacked by Digimons who are acting strangely lately. There are also rumors that most Digimon have been ambushed by rampaging Digimon with no reason at all. The attacks keep continuing every day so everyone these days have become wary of anything suspicious."

The group gasped at the current situation of File Island and realized it is getting worse. Then Trova ask his question that he had in mind for a while.

(Trova) "Mr. Elecmon, I have realize something about this village… Is this place where all Digimon were born and raised?"

Yusei and Anzu became shocked at the question Trova giving out and saw that Elecmon nodding his head in response.

(Elecmon) "Correct, my friend… Actually, this is one of the few places where Digimon became reborn after becoming dead."

All three of them are further surprised about the fact that Digimon are getting reborn in this place.

(Yusei) "Reborn?!"

(Elecmon) "Yes, reborn… Digimon are capable to die and reborn in this world. It is our nature. I heard that you humans died in a same way only it is permanent death."

(Elecmon) "However, we Digimon are made of data, and data can be recycled so we followed the same pattern. When Digimon died, our data is being sent to this place and reconfigured itself into a Digi-Egg with no memory from our previous self."

Trova becomes excited at the explanation that Elecmon is giving out while Yusei and Anzu are still bewildered at the fact that Digimon are being reborn.

(Elecmon) "There are also exceptions in the rebirth process. Some Digimon data have become too heavily damaged that they disappear completely while others became… something else."

(Trova) "Something else…?"

(Elecmon) "You will know about that later. Anyway, This place has been around in File Island for a long time and I'm the village guardian. Also, this is where Agumon and Gabumon Digi-Egg appeared. Their eggs have been closely together as long as I've remembered. When those two have hatched, I helped caring and raising them in this village before giving them off to Jijimon."

(Yusei) "I see… So where are they now? Are they okay?"

(Elecmon) "They're safe. They have already recovered their wounds from the battle and then headed this village to tell me about their adventures with you. They also requested that I tell them of any rumors about you if you came back to this world."

(Yusei) "Agumon and Gabumon are searching for me?"

(Elecmon) "Yes, they have grown fond of you during your short visit. Oh, speaking of them, I sense that they are coming this way right now."

After Elecmon said that, Yusei group heard a loud voice suddenly appear behind them.

(Agumon) "There he is! Yusei is here! Hey!"

(Gabumon) "Your right! He's back! Hey Yusei!"

Yusei looked over his shoulders to see two familiar Digimon appear near the entrance of Primary Village. Agumon and Gabumon are running towards him along with two Digimon he never saw before.

Yusei smiles as he is relief that they are looking well and voice out his worries when they are here next to him.

(Yusei) "Thank god, you guys are okay! I was really worry about you two when Kuwagamon attacked you."

(Gabumon) "Don't worry about us. We're tougher than we looked despite the level differences."

(Yusei) "I see. By the way, how did both of you found me in this village?"

(Agumon) "Thank my nose for that. I've recognized your scent as soon it has appeared."

(Yusei) "Are you really a lizard or a dog!?"

Yusei immediately let out a retorted question in response to Agumon's strange answer. Then he realized that he is making a weird scene when everyone is staring at him. He tries to change the mood of the conversion.

(Yusei) "A- Anyway, who are these two Digimon with you? Are they your friends?"

(Agumon) "Yeah, these two are helping us for trying to figuring out what is happening on the island."

The two Digimons who are pals with Agumon and Gabumon are a strange pair. The first Digimon is a robotic ladybug with grey talons at the end of the front pair while the other is a large pink bird with arm-like wings.

(Tentomon) "Hello, I'm Tentomon. I live in Beetle Land where you guys have a battle against Kuwagamon. Pleased to meet you."

(Biyomon) "Hello… My name is Biyomon… I used to live in Yokomon Village near Mihirashi Mountain."

Tentomon welcomed them with a friendly tone while Biyomon shyly greeted them in a low voice.

Yusei took out his Digivice and used it to scan the two Digimon in front of him.

Digimon: Tentomon

Level: Rookie

Attribute: Vaccine

Digimon: Biyomon

Level: Rookie

Attribute: Vaccine

Yusei look at the information at the screen and confirm that they are Rookie Level Digimon, same as Agumon and Gabumon. Trova made the first move to introduce himself.

(Trova) "Hello, my name is Trova Yamashiro. Nice to meet you, Tentomon. Wow, you looked kind a like Harmonia axyridis."

(Tentomon) "Really? What's that?"

(Trova) "It is the Genus species name for 'ladybug'. Also the Japanese name for it is 'tentoumushi'. Hey, I realized that most Digimon name and appearances are deviated from words of our world cause your name might be coming from the Japanese words. This is another interesting discoveries since I came to the Digital World."

(Tentomon) "Wow, I never knew that our names have a relation to your world! You are very smart!"

Trova and Tentomon greeted each other with a friendly start. Trova "encyclopedia" mode came out during the conversion and Tentomon is fascinated at the facts and ideas Trova give out. Both of them get along quickly in their first meeting.

(Anzu) "Hi, I'm Anzu Akaihine. So… You're name is Biyomon, correct?"

(Biyomon) "Y-Yeah… That's right."

Anzu is staring at Biyomon in a close distance and Biyomon is getting nervous while being looked at. Suddenly, Anzu threw out her arms and wrapped around Biyomon before everyone anticipated.

(Anzu) "Kyaaaa! You look so cute and fluffy!"

(Biyomon) "Wah! Wh- What!?"

(Anzu) "Ooohh! Your feathers feel so soft that I want to sleep with them. You look way better than that creepy bug-thing."

(Tentomon) "Nnguh!?"

(Biyomon) "R- Really? I never heard someone talk to me about that before… Oh my, this is embarrassing."

Biyomon is getting embarrassed by Anzu as she blushes while Tentomon fell to the ground after being stabbed by Anzu words. Trova tries to sooth Tentomon pain while others looking at their interaction with wryly smiles.

After the introduction is done, Yusei asked Agumon and the others about the attacks of the rampaging Digimon. Agumon answer that question in a grim expression.

(Agumon) "After you left, Tentomon found us unconscious after the battle with Kuwagamon and helped heal our injuries before returning to the village. A few days later, another Digimon came to our village in the same state as Kuwagamon and destroyed our home."

(Gabumon) "Fortunately most of the villagers managed to survive and escape from the destruction. Me and Agumon decided that things can't stay like this so we headed out and went to other places to find the cause."

(Tentomon) "Many bug Digimons are also turning wild and they all have the same strange Digimon attached to their bodies. I've joined them when they came to the forest."

(Biyomon) "Same thing for me… My village was attacked by a rampaging Digimon, too. Some of us have survived while others…"

Biyomon didn't said any in a pained voice while others are wearing a gloomy expressions. Yusei guess that the other villagers have lost their lives, and he knew that he cannot stay out of this.

(Yusei) "All right, I decided! I'm going to help you guys to solve this problem!"

(Anzu) "What!? Hey Yusei! You can't be serious!"

(Yusei) "I'm serious, Anzu. I can't let these attacks go on like this. Besides, they helped me out when I was lost in the Digital World so I'm returning the favor."

(Anzu) "Don't be stupid! We're just kids! Trova, can you talk some sense to your buddy here?!"

(Trova) "Sorry Anzu, but I'm with Yusei on this one. I want to help the Digimon, too."

(Anzu) "Trova, not you too!"

(Yusei) "Trova, thanks for the help but are you sure? This is my choice so you don't have to go along with me."

(Trova) "This is also my choice, too. I can't let you doing this alone without me looking after you. Besides, I want to explore the Digital World and know more about the Digimon."

(Yusei) "Geez, are you my mother? But thanks anyway."

(Anzu) "I can't believe this!"

(Agumon) "You're really going to help us?"

(Yusei) "Yeah, that's right. After all, we're friends so it is naturally for us to help each out."

(Agumon) "Thanks Yusei! You're the best!"

(Gabumon) "Yeah, you really are a nice guy!"

(Anzu) "Oh my gosh… This can't be happening…"

Yusei and Trova have made their resolve to help their friends to solve this case and the Digimon are happy while Anzu lamented the fact about the dangers of the world.
