Chapter 6: The Digital World's Origin

Naomi's POV

We traveled further and further into the woods as Sakura tried to find a secluded area. At that time, I was getting frickin' nervous. I mean, this was some serious news that we were going to receive and I have no idea about it. I know it has to do with the stones that I've gotten and with the legendary warriors, but what does it have to do with me? Okay, it might be the fact that I can transform into this digimon called warriormon but what's so important about her? Well, as I pondered this, I never noticed that Sakura had stopped. I kept walking on when I felt something at my leg. I tripped on a log and fell face first into the ground.

"Ow…" I say as I lift up my face. My forehead's red where it got hurt the most but my face gets redder when I see everyone staring at me. It doesn't help even more with Tobe laughing hysterically in the background. I get up and sit down on the log as everyone sits down on the others. Takuya tries to sit next to me but then, Tobe comes and sits there instead. I see him sit down next to him, but before he does, I notice a flicker of emotion on his face. Angry over me? Nah, there's no way he'd be angry over that. It's probably because of the seat.

"Tobe, get over here. You're helping me with this." Sakura says. He opens his mouth to protest but instead, he gets up and stands next to her, grumbling to himself.

"Are you alright?" Takuya asks me. I nod as we turn our attention to Sakura. She sits in the middle of the circle where everyone could see her. She closes her eyes, probably trying to find a way to begin.

"First things first." she says as she slowly opens her eyes. We all lean in to hear her better. This was it. This was the moment we've been waiting for. She takes a deep breath and says…

"Weren't there two more of you? A neemon and bokomon?" We all anime fall as she stares confusingly at our reaction and Tobe laughs his ass off again. Suddenly, I look around and notice that they were gone… with Luke as well.

"Where's Luke?!" I ask, getting up in fear of losing him. The others begin to as well when we suddenly hear screaming. Familiar screaming. As we look towards the pathway we came from, bokomon and neemon come crashing through the bushes. Behind them are the same cloud that was from the room below and an odd looking moss-colored cloud next to it. But what caught my attention first was that on that regular looking cloud was Luke, happily smiling.

"Please call this cloud off, Naomi! It won't stop chasing us!!" bokomon shouts.

"That's because it's trying to give Luke back to you." I say as I approach the cloud. I pick up Luke and it backs off from them. It keeps floating there as I start to feel uncomfortable.

"Umm… thank you?" I say. It floats there a few seconds before it, somehow, nods. I turn to leave when I was face-to- er, face with the other cloud.

"Uh… thank you, too…"

Suddenly, it makes a loud raspberry as I stand there, shocked. Did it just fart? I think as I look at the others. They look at me in question as I turn slightly red.

"Just to let you guys know that wasn't me." I say in defense to their stares. I hear Kouji laugh as he smiles.

"You know, the first one to deny it is the one who did it." He says as I get redder.

"Aw, come on! Literally, it wasn't me. It was the cloud thingy." I whine.

"Yeah, right." Kouji says as I pout. Then, Sakura laughs.

"Not you, too." I say. She shakes her head as she stops laughing.

"No, I'm agreeing with you. It was the cloud. That cloud, if I remember clearly, is called Stinky. The other one that was holding Luke is called Puffy." Stinky then flies all around us, happily… uh, farting…

"Why's it called Stinky?" Zoe asks.

"It's because of its origin. It was created from a nasty smelling swamp. It also makes those sounds when it's happy. Plus, it reeks horribly." She says as it stops in front of Tobe.

"Aw, come on! It can't smell that bad." Tobe says as he leans in.

"No, don't-" Sakura says but it's too late. Tobe sticks its head in and takes a deep breath. His face turns green. Suddenly, he dashes off into the forest and we hear him losing his lunch. I get slightly sick as I hear him in the distance.

"Stinky smells so horrible that one sniff can make you queasy for two days." Sakura finishes as she makes a face at all the noise that Tobe is making. Stinky happily floats there as we stare at it when a breeze comes in. Stinky is blown away as he keeps making raspberries and Puffy slowly follows it. We're silent for a few seconds before Sakura clears her throat.

"Well, on to matters." She says. I walk back and sit down as we prepare ourselves for the news.

Takuya's POV

"A long time ago, the digital world was what it used to be. Back then, it never even existed. All the digimon were never digimon but what you humans call us, mythical creatures. We all use to live with you humans in your world in harmonious peace. But because we were different, your kind refused to live with us anymore. Thus, they began to destroy us. We tried to flee but there was no where to hide. So the elder creatures made a new world for us. We all went and we survived. We were happy that now we could be free of harm but now we needed leaders. You see, the elders had given their lives just to make the world so we had no leader. Luckily, ophanimon, seraphimon, and cherubimon were the next to rule since they were celestial angels… well, at least ophanimon and seraphimon anyway..."

"We all began to adapt and we soon became more advanced than you humans are right now. But with our grand knowledge, we soon realized that our world was disintegrating. We needed to save it but we didn't know how. Finally, we would need to change it into data. But in order for us to live, we needed to become data as well, or else we would vanish from this world. At that moment, there was trouble at the seraphimon and ophanimon's castle. You see, they were arguing over who should be in control if they should ever be gone. They finally chose two celestial beings, a male and female, to rule the world if they should die. But the choices weren't wisely chosen. One was jealous of the other and attempted to rule himself. The other chosen was busy trying to convert everyone into their new forms."

"Who were these chosen digimon?" Tommy asks.

"Well, you know who they are. The male chosen to perform seraphimon's duties was lucemon." We all grimace as I notice Naomi clutch Luke close to me. Even though she doesn't know him, I can tell that she knows that he's bad.

"Man, what were they thinking when they chose him?" J.P mutters.

"J.P!"

"What?" he says.

"Anyway, the other digimon to take ophanimon's duties was warriormon, their daughter." We all stares at her in shock. That was something that we didn't expect.

"Warriormon… is their daughter?" Kouichi asks. Sakura nods her head. We glance at Naomi momentarily before returning back to Sakura.

"Remember, before we became data, we were just like any human. Plus, she was the rightful heir so of course she would be chosen. Well, back to my story, warriormon used to be called Amelia and she wanted to make all of the other digimon into data before her. She truly cared of others than her own well being… she was truly a holy person…" she whispers as old memories return. As she takes a few minutes to compose herself, she flashes a quick look at Naomi.

"Wait a minute. So you all had human names?" Kouji asks her.

"Yes. You already know since I'm Sakura and impmon is Tobe." She replies.

"What were ophanimon's and seraphimon's names, then?" Tommy asks as Sakura flinches.

"Well, I'm not sure if I should tell you…"

"Come on, please!' we beg. She thinks for a few seconds before she responds.

"Their names… were Ophani and Seraphi…" We're silent a few seconds before we all laugh hysterically, falling off our seats.

"You gotta be kidding me! That was their names?!" Naomi shouts.

"Yes… Now, will you get a hold of yourselves!" she yells angrily. We immediately stop and sit back on our seats.

"As I was saying, she was more concerned for her people. So she had them converted first. After a few years, we had just about everyone finished except her. Unfortunately, the war between human and creature digimon began and you know the rest." She says.

"What happened to warriormon?" Zoe asks.

"She… believed it was her fault that lucemon turned evil. She wanted to make things right and joined the legendary warriors in the battle against him. She disappeared midway." Sakura says sadly. We're all quiet when bokomon speaks.

"Hold on. Why isn't this recorded in my book, then?" bokomon says as he lifts his book up. Sakura approaches and takes it.

"Ophanimon was filled with sadness when she disappeared so she didn't want anybody else to know. So she removed the knowledge before it was ever found out."

"How come she wants to find her now?" Kouji asks. Sakura doesn't speak for a few seconds as she randomly taps the book. I don't know what she's doing but I think Naomi does since her eyes slightly widen as she watches her.

"Recently, there has been many… waves of energy. They are somewhat similar to hers so it seems reasonable that she would investigate this. There hasn't been any other with this kind of energy than her before." She says as she stops tapping the book.

"Well, how does she expect us to find her if we don't have any information on her?" Kouichi asks.

"One, you have me and Tobe now since we are going to be a team now. And two…" She says as she gives the book back to bokomon. He frantically tries to catch it before he drops it, causing it to open up. Inside, it shows a picture of an angel releasing rays of light.

"If something happens to us, you can now use the book since I just added the missing information." She says as we all lean in to look at the picture. Suddenly, Tobe finally returns with a green face as he sits down on Tommy and J.P.'s log. They immediately get up and move when he makes a dry heave.

"Well, well, I thought you would be puking still." Sakura says as he looks at her, weakly trying to put a cool face.

"Hey, I'm tough and strong, not soft and weak as that idiot." He says as he refers to Naomi. I get annoyed as he says this but Naomi shows no reaction to this comment other than sighing and zoning off into another world. Well, at least until she got a confused look on her face.

"Hold on. How come when I spirit evolve, I keep saying warriormon? Plus, who are these digimon?" she asks.

"These digimon you transform into aren't her at all. In fact, they are actually her guardians." She says as Naomi's eyes widen. She reaches into her pocket and pulls out the two stones.

"You see, ophanimon and seraphimon loved their daughter so much that they wanted to have her fully protected in every way. So, one day, they went to go find digimon to guard her. But they were about to make their decisions, she chose ten others. They were her friends. They were the legendary warriors."

"She knew them?! Then, why was I told to avoid them?" Naomi asks.

"Well, that I can't explain. Maybe later that may be answered. Anyway, her parents thought that they weren't ready so they had the others that they thought would have been perfect for the job. The so called warriormons in the stones." She said.

"So why are they in stones? Are they important?" Kouji asks.

"Well, supposedly they are connected to her. They may know where she is." Sakura says.

"Then, all we have to do is have Naomi talk to them, right?" Zoe says.

"No, because they can talk to me but not me to them. I don't know how I talk to them but they are the ones who always start it." Naomi says.

"How many are there exactly?" she asked again.

"There are ten stones each representing an element in the digital world." Tobe says before he covers his mouth again and runs off. We turn our heads away from his direction as we hear him once more. Naomi continues to look at the stones when Zoe walks over to her.

"Here. This will be a safe place to keep them in." she says as she hands her a small brown bag. She takes it delicately and places them inside. Then, she ties it to her waist.

"So then, what do we do now?" Tommy asks.

"Well, we have to go meet ophanimon. She may be able to give us more information about the stones." We all sigh, thinking of how long and tiresome it would be. Then, Naomi raises her head.

"Wait, then are we going with them?" she asks, a small smile beginning to form on her face. Sakura nods her head and Naomi leaps for joy.

"You should smile more." I say, not realizing that I just said that. Everyone stares at me as I realize what I just said. I see her turning slightly pink as everyone gives me suspicious looks, Zoe's the most suspicious the most. I feel myself turn red as Naomi sits down. She keeps her head down and doesn't look at me as I turn to face Sakura again. Everyone looks at each other as they realize something that I don't. Man, this is going to be one annoyingly long trip.

Naomi's POV

I look down in embarrassment from Takuya's statement. No one's ever said that to me… well, maybe some of my friends but from a guy, no way. I decide to take a small glance towards him, to see his reaction at what he said. Unfortunately, he had decided to do it at the same time as me. As our eyes lock with each other, we slightly flinch and look away. This keeps going on for a few times until we finally avoid looking at all.

"So, how long is it going to take for us to reach her castle?" Kouichi asks.

"If my calculations are correct… two weeks."

"What?!" We all yell.

"Unfortunately, since we led you away from the easier path from her castle, it will take longer since the closest route is the hardest one." She says as we all sigh in sorrow.

"Well, I have a question that I've been longing to ask. Why do you have a human baby with you?" Zoe asks as I flinch at that question. Oh no. my most dreaded question to come.

"That's a question that only Naomi can answer." Sakura says as they all face me. I grip Luke harder as I decided what to say.

"What, did she get pregnant early in her years?" Kouji says as I glare at him.

"Actually, there's a few things wrong with your question. One, I'm not a mother. Won't be ever in my life, actually. And two, Luke isn't a human baby. He's… a digimon baby."

I say.

"What?!" they yell in shock. Even Sakura has a stunned look on her face and Tobe came out of the bushes to stare in shock as well.

"How can he be a digimon baby? He looks too human." J.P says.

"You're right about that. But if you look here…" I say as I begin to unbutton Luke's clothing a little. They gasp as they see a tattoo mark of a pair of wings on his back.

"You see, when I first came to the digital world, I was given Luke with all the information about him. He is a rare child born in the digital world that grows off the emotions of only a human. I have to take care of him and if I should leave him in the hands of evil, he will be corrupted and destroy the digital world." I say as everyone takes this in. but Kouji, he looks like as if he doesn't believe me. But he doesn't say a thing so I just let it pass.

"So that's why you said that you couldn't leave." Tommy says.

"Right. So I'm stuck here until my duty is done… whatever it is anyway." I say. Everyone is quiet.

"Well, that's a matter for another day. For now, let's all rest. We didn't sleep at all last night so we could use it." Sakura says as she gets up. I suddenly feel tired as I realize this, too. We follow her as she leads us to a tiny clearing where the trees create a perfect shade. We sit at a couple of trees and begin to fall asleep. Tobe later joins us and sits at a tree far away in case he gets sick again. As I begin to fall asleep, I see the new group of people that I'm to travel with.

'What have I gotten myself into?' I ask as I finally fall asleep.
