Hikari quietly checked on her guest who she had learned was named Kenji. After they had gotten home she had provided him with a mattress and gave his partner, who told her his name was Dorumon a large blanket. She sighed and looked at the egg that Kenji gave her for safe keeping. Never did she think that she would let a Digimon Tamer sleep in her house. She used to hate the digimon for putting her students in the crossfire of their wars. For example last year when that pink blob covered the city the only ones that could fight it were her students who were partnered with digimon. Hikari figured that if they enjoyed their partners and even if they were in danger constantly that if they got new friends then it was okay with her. Besides from what she gathered the Digimon Tamers were about as strong as the strongest threat they could face.

She was interrupted by a door creaking open and when she looked she saw the digimon, Dorumon walk towards the couch where she was sitting. He glanced at her before curling on the floor by her feet.

"I want to thank you for giving us a place to stay." Dorumon said after she petted his back where the two small bat wings were barely sticking out of his back.

Hikari smiled, "no problem. What kind of person would I be if I let a kid and his friend sleep outside?"

Dorumon glanced at her one more time, "I wouldn't know. I've only seen three humans before and Kenji only ever saw two, not counting himself."

Hikari froze where she was sitting. That could only mean one thing. Kenji never left the digital world.

"How is that possible?"

"I don't know. All I do know however is that we have a job to do here and we can't leave till we finish it." Hikari looked at Dorumon and smiled sadly.

"Well then, until you finish your job you can live here. Now I'm going to get some rest now that I know what to do with you two." Hikari smiled at Dorumon and walked towards her room taking the egg with her. She had a feeling that things were going to get exciting around here.

Hannah turned around while Lekismon was jumping from building to building and saw the girl, Rika with a fox like digimon chasing her. It was funny to say the least, the first human girl she has ever seen and she wants to kill her. She saw the girl slash something through her digivice and suddenly her digimon got faster until she was right behind Lekismon. Why couldn't she just go away and leave me in peace, Hannah thought after Lekismon jumped off the building towards the ground. That was, by Hannah's estimate, a hundred or so feet.

"Wait!" Rika reached out to grab her despite being a dozen feet away. Hannah screamed the whole way down and barely saw the flash of light from where Rika was.

Before Lekismon hit the ground a hand grabbed her and their fall slowed down. Hannah looked up and saw a woman digimon that much was certain, with golden armor. She radiated power which meant she was either an ultimate or mega and Hannah was betting the latter.

That girl must have digivolved her digimon to her mega form. But that meant that she left her partner on the building with no way down. Hannah looked at the digimon and frowned, something wasn't right with her though. Hannah wasn't the best at sensing things but even she could tell that there were two presences in the digimon.

Hannah let the shock cross her face, "You fused!" The digimon/human chuckled before a thud was heard behind her and when Hannah looked behind her she froze and knew there was no point running. A Gallantmon was looking at her and the other digimon and laughing. He seemed nice but from what she could tell this Gallantmon was stronger than the fox lady behind her.

"Well this is peachy."

I don't remember falling asleep or even walking in this room but here I was. I was in a room with plain white walls and a small window that let in enough light to stop me from falling asleep. I looked for Dorumon who usually slept near me and found him missing. I shrugged and turned away from the light when the door creaked open and a head poked its way through.

The lady, Hikari smiled and opened the door fully. Her hair was messy and she smelled like some type of food.

"Rise and shine, we have some things we have to do." I groaned. Why did I think I could sleep in? Hannah wasn't even here but someone else had to be my walking alarm clock.

She closed the door and I found myself struggling to stay awake. I sat up and noticed the blankets were strewn across the mattress like I didn't even sleep under it. How tired was I? I jumped when a loud noise was heard. I jumped up and ran through the apartment until a funny sight caught my eyes.

Dorumon had a plate over his eyes and some sort of yellow food was running slowly down his face. Hikari was by a stove top cooking while trying hard not to laugh and I noticed that Devimon's egg was in arms reach of her. She barely left that egg since I had given her it for safe keeping. Hikari got another plate and filled it with some more food and put it in front of me.

"Well? Are you going to eat or should Dorumon eat it for you?" Dorumon jumped at the plate and I did as well and we found ourselves wrestling. The match lasted only a couple minutes with Dorumon under the table nursing his bruises while I sat down and dug in to the delicious, unknown and did I mention delicious, food. Hikari sat down across from me with the egg in her lap and smiled as I finished up the food.

"Well now that you're done eating I think I need to know some things. Like how you got here? Or who you are? Or better yet where you live?" I pushed the plate away from me and put my arm across my belly where a mound had come up. I must have ate a lot.

"Thank you for the meal miss Hikari. I am kind of confused myself with my whole situation so please bear with me while I tell you. As you know my name is Kenji, I never knew m y last name because I was taken from the human world to the digital world when I was six. For how I got here a friend of mine sent me through a digital portal so I can escape from a group of evil digimon. He was destroyed while doing it and he is now that egg you have there. His name was Devimon. As far as I know I don't live anywhere right now. I used to live in a little…well big, after a while, city. It was called File City and was filled with friendly digimon. I had lived there my whole life as far as I can remember."

Hikari was silent for a second and then she ran her hand through her messy hair, "So you don't know your last name. You lived in the digital world since you were six. You were running. Did I miss anything?"

"Nope, you got the most of it."

She sat forward, "then do you have a purpose here? I doubt that you are here for just a visit."

I sighed and sat back and stared at the ceiling. I thought back to what Omnimon had said. Should I tell her the long version or short? A look at her and I couldn't find myself answering. She had a look in her eyes that screamed, I WORRY A LOT! I had seen it in Hannah's eyes a lot. The short answer was the best.

"I was supposed to unite the digimon and their partners to stop an invading force that wishes to destroy the digital and human world. But now that I'm here without my friend who was supposed to help me as well I don't know what to do. So I have a couple options. 1) Look for my friend 2) unite the digidestined 3) do both and have a harder time and 4) do nothing while more of my friends die. I'm going with option three. And I think you can help me out a little."

Hikari sighed loudly this time then shot up, "Wait! How can I help at all?"

"Easy. You barely blinked an eye when you saw Dorumon so that must mean you've seen digimon before. Am I right?" She nodded. "Then you can help me find some of the digidestined so my job can be one step closer to completion. Then I can find Hannah and fight the threat. After that we find who we are. Where our parents are. And best, live a happy, no stress life."

We sat there in silence while she let the info sink in. Dorumon stood from under the table and ate some crumbs on my plate but stopped after I punched the top of his head.

Hikari folded her hands on top of the table and glared at them. She was shaking, barely, but still shaking.

"Alright. I don't know anything about…digidestined but I do know about Digimon Tamers. I have a couple as my students and the leader is one of them. You can come with me today and talk to him. He could help you out with your problem. They help out a group or something that I think can help you with finding your friend. Is that okay?"

I smiled and stood up, "It's perfect."

"Not perfect."

I was sitting in a room filled with a lot of small kids. They had to be a couple years younger than me and just barely came up to my elbows. I never have seen so many other humans before. This must be like what a regular person first seeing a digimon deals with. While Hikari sat at her desk I sat on a chair next to her facing the whole room. Dorumon was hiding in a little supply closet and had to stay there till he could come out. He hated small spaces so I knew he was having a hard time in there. That thought brought a smile to my face. The door slid open and I turned to see a young boy with brown hair and a pair of goggles on his head rush in and sit next to another young man with blue-ish hair. They were in the front and had the closest seat to the door. He was the last one it seemed.

"Late again, Takato." Hikari said while looking at some papers. I turned to look back at the boy who was now rubbing the back of his head and smiling sheepishly.

"Well you see Ms. Asagi I had to help out Rika with a biomerge and we ended up chasing it for a while when we finally got to it fought back and we had to knock it out." He opened his mouth to continue but Hikari put up her hand and he fell silent.

"Alright. You're free this time but one more tardy and you will have detention. Are we clear?"

"Yes Ms. Asagi."

Hikari smiled and stood up and started calling names and when they were called someone would yell out "here!" I was confused with the Takato boy though. Biomerge? Did he mean digimon?

"Alright class now that I have taken roll you may pass forward last night's homework and then we can correct it."

After she was done grabbing even more papers the boy who was sitting next to Takato raised his hand.

"Yes, Henry?" The boy stood up and looked at me before talking.

"If I can ask a question? Who is this?" He was pointing at me. He had to be twelve at the most. Was I ever that small? If I was then I'm glad I can't remember it.

"Just family staying with me while he is in town. Why don't you welcome him? Class say welcome to Shinjuku!"

"WELCOME TO SHINJUKU!" I felt my face warm up with all the attention focused on me.

Hikari smiled at me, "why don't you introduce yourself to the class since you'll be helping me out with some things."

I stood up, "Hello my name is Kenji. That's just about it…should I ask if you have questions?" A couple girls nodded and raised their hands.

I picked a random person, "Where are you from?"

Where should I say I was from? "Ummm A place called File City; it's far away from here."

"I've never heard of that place."

"It's a small town."

She was about to open her mouth but I picked another person. "What is your last name?"

I froze, crap. Thankfully Hikari answered for me.

"His name is Kenji Asagi. My brother's son."

I smiled, it felt nice to have a last name even if it wasn't my real one.

I picked another person, "How old are you?"

Yay, an easy one! "I am fifteen years old."

"Wow, shouldn't you be in high school?"

I shrugged which seemed good enough for her. The kid, Henry I think, was looking at me like he was searching for something. I looked at him and he looked away from me to Hikari who sat back down and beckoned for me to do the same. The day passed by slowly and I found myself bored. I had learned everything that Hikari was teaching already so I just closed my eyes and waited. My eyes flew open however when a loud sound was heard throughout the school. The kids screamed happily and rushed towards the door.

"Takato, Henry. Can I have a moment?" The two boys stopped and walked towards the desk and stood silently. I studied them both; Takato looked a little taller and had thin arms and a fragile looking body like he barely worked out. The other kid, Henry had a more serious look to him and wasn't as frail looking.

Hikari looked at me and nodded to the two boys.

"Ohh are these kids the ones you told me about?" Hikari smiled and nodded.

The two boys looked confused for a minute and they turned to each other and shared a look.

"In that case, Dorumon! You can come out now!" The door almost flew off the hinges and hit the wall with a bang and Dorumon jumped out of the supply closet. The two boys jumped back immediately and grabbed a strange looking thing on their belts.

"Dorumon. Rookie level, beast type digimon. Its metal cannon attack can wipe out just about anything it hits!" The boy Henry was looking at thing that had come out of the thing he was holding. That thing must be their digivices! Ohh that made sense.

"As you can see we have to talk."
