While she was cleaning Mimi's room, Satoe Tachikawa happened upon a little book under Mimi's pillow. Curious, she opened it up to find a diary. Though she would not have read it before, she hadn't seen her daughter properly for years and was curious.
…
After reading the diary, Satoe was so alarmed that she quickly got the rest of the parents together in the living room and spoke up. "I found my daughter's diary."
Tai's father looked at her and then shrugged. "I don't see what the deal is."
"It explains where our children went."
"Well of course, Izzi and the others went to a boarding school." Izzi's mom said.
Satoe slammed the book down on the coffee table, "No they haven't!"
This caused all the parents to look up in shock.
Matt and TK's dad spoke up, "Does it have anything to do with Digimon?"
Satoe's mouth flew open before she spoke, "Huh-how did you know?"
This sent the parents into a frenzy, it couldn't be, not again!
"Start talking." Mr. Ishida said patiently.
"They're in another world. According to this, they're at a school for magic. It also said that some of the children have died… and were reborn."
"Who?" the group cried.
"Let's see… Oh here it is." Satoe said, thumbing through the pages, "'We later found that they died and were reborn into the forms they now have. Izzi now has skin like a beetle's, Ken looks part fly, Suzie looks like a fox-girl, Harry and Takuya are both part wolf, Koichi's got lion in him now, and Marcus is part bear. However, we were greatful to get the news about this thing that has Hermione Granger's body. His name is Bruce and he is one of eight shadow beings that have been keeping the Sovereign hostage."
At this, Izzi's mother and father were stunned. However, both nodded at Satoe to continue.
"And this one here is from the end of their third year at the school, "Kaskana's dead. However, we paid a heavy price. Where Harry has died twice and some of the others once last year, we, our own group no less, lost one permenantly. We got an alert that Kaskana was on the move so we ran out to fight. It was a hard battle and some of us got injured but we weren't making any progress. In one last act of bravery, Tai ran at Kaskana and delivered the final blow… just… just as Kaskana delivered the final blow at Tai."
The Kamiya's screamed. They were cut off however by another passage.
"Tai's alive! Apparently when Koichi and Sara bonded, Tai's medallion allowed him to be revived! If only Davis had been so lucky… I can tell that Ken feels the weight of that responsibility greatly."
Mr. Ishida gulped before speaking, "We have to help them somehow. Does the diary give you any ideas?"
Satoe flipped back to the beginning, "Izzi explained it to us once, apparently the Digital World was created by technology but is powered by the hopes and dreams of the people in the Real World. Takato said that his team was able to wish for what they needed and they got it somehow. We have to want it hard enough. Of course, after that he went into his techno-speak but if I believe that Rosemon can win, she WILL win. Because children wish for more, they have the potential to be Digidestined. That's why we got picked instead of adults. Of course, three of us were chosen as adults but that was in the world of DATS."
"Well I wish that I could help my children, I'll do anything." Mr. Ishida said.
The rest of the group nodded and their wishes filled their whole bodies. When everyone opened their eyes, they were shocked to see a strange black void that was darker than the sky, which had looked strange since Halloween. As one, the adults walked through, only to find themselves somewhere else.
…
The lightning was driving Jun crazy. It just wouldn't stop for a second. Though it was Christmas day, the snow never fell… anywhere around the world. Of course, things would be more interesting if Matt was around but she hadn't seen him for years. Rumor had it that Matt had actually quit The Teenage Wolves seven years ago, vanishing into thin air. Now she stood beside her parents as they stared out at the sky. However, their quiet moment was shattered as the lightning cracked, striking each one of them and transporting them somewhere else. Like it or not, the parents and families of the Digidestined had just gotten involved.
…
CRACK! Yamaki jumped and then mentally scolded himself. Why was he jumpy when he should be used to this eternal storm? He sighed and looked up at the strange otherworld that hovered above him. His assistant, Riley handed him a very powerful telescope which she had just tracked down. Now he looked through it and gasped.
"What is it sir?" Riley asked him.
"Look."
Riley took the telescope and jumped in shock. With the high powered lens, she could see a group of people, including a very familiar set of faces, those of the Tamers. "How… what?"
Before Yamaki could answer, he began to hear voices coming in faintly, "Mean?"
"I… know, maybe Harry … know."
Yamaki thought for a moment before trying something strange. Curious, he asked Riley to get him some headphones. When she came back, he put them over his ears and could hear clearly.
"…I don't know what these medallions will do to us but if Joe's hearing voices then that's not a good sign." A growly voice intoned.
"Maybe it's like our Biomerge only they biomerged with their rookie digimon?" Came the voice of Janyu's son Henry.
"Oh puh-lease. What would a chunk of ash have to do with a biomerge?" Rika Nonako's voice spoke up.
"Well my question is what these figures did the first team." The growly voice pointed out.
Yamaki took the headphones off. "Whatever that place is, it is where they are."
"What do you mean?"
"I just heard Henry Wong and Rika Nonako discussing some medallions." He then put the headphones on in time to hear, "I wish I hadn't lost Yamaki's communicator. Maybe he'd be able to help."
"He gave you his communicator Henry?" Takato Matsuki's voice rang out.
"And a strange suitcase. But we got shunted into the first team's world before I could grab it."
"So how would you guys have gotten into the Digital World anyway? We use the Digital Dive." A gruff voice rang out.
"We use the trains." An Italian accent rang out.
"Well there's this portal by where Guilimon hung out. It activated the day we left and has remained active in the summer. Maybe it's active again?"
Yamaki threw off the headphones. "Get the parents."
"Why sir?"
"We're going to the Digital World.
Five minutes later, Yamaki had gathered the parents of all the Tamers together and the families were listening to Yamaki explain the dangers of the portal. "It could hurt you but it's the only way to get to your kids."
A bystander who overheard the conversation quickly turned around. "I know the danger my old students faced. If we are scared of one little energy vortex, we aren't good mentors to the kids."
"Who are you?" Yamaki asked.
"Kari Miyuki. I was their teacher when they were Tamers." After Mrs. Miyuki said that, she quickly ran into the old shed and dived into the portal there. With looks at each other, the others quickly followed.
…
Shinya Kanbara lounged on a tree, staring at the last gift Takuya had given him before he had… changed. After he left seven years ago, Takuya had quickly become distant, having strange conversations with an imaginary friend named Harry when he thought no one was listening.
Shinya was quickly startled out of his thoughts by a strange message on his phone. It was a simple text that read, Takuya Kanbara is in danger. Startled, Shinya fell out of his tree and into the arms of a brown haired guy who had just happened to see the boy fall.
"Kid, what do you think you are doing, falling like that?" The man who had saved him, Yutaka Himi froze when he saw the boy's face. "What's wrong?"
"I got this message that said my brother is in danger."
At this, Yutaka promptly dropped the kid and showed him the contents of HIS cell phone. "So did I."
Shinya quickly read the message out loud, "Tommy Himi is in danger. Hey, my brother hangs out with a kid named Tommy."
The two looked at each other before they got beeps on their phones. When they read the identical messages, "If you want to help your brother, go to Shibuya Station. When you arrive, take the elevator to the basement." The two quickly panicked.
Yutaka and Shinya panted. They had run as fast as they could to the station and were tired. However, they were startled when their parents, the Kanbaras and the Himis quickly called their names. Before they could answer, the elevator opened up to reveal a strange train. The two exchanged looks before leading the group of people with them to the train. Shinya broke the silence with a, "Think the train will take us to Takuya?"
With that, the group got a shock as the train, yes the train began talking. "Did you say Takuya?"
Shinya gulped before answering, "Yeah, do you know him?"
"Met him once. That was back before he got famous. He was down on his luck so he wound up on my platform. Took him to the human world but when he got back, he was a different person. Now he and the rest of the Legendary Warriors are famous."
Yutaka raised an eyebrow before speaking, "Did you hear about Tommy Hi-"
"Tommy, warrior of ice? Well of course. He was a little guy I heard but he had a lot of spunk. Heard a rumor that he says he owes everything to his brother Yutaka."
Some of the other adults quickly began bombarding the train with questions, "Do you know where my Zoe is?"
"And JP, my son?"
"Koji?"
"Where is Koichi?"
The train sighed, "I don't know where any of the warriors are. So are you the group going cross-digiworld?"
"Huh?" Shinya asked.
The trained rolled his eyes and then clarified, "Lord Cherubimon said that we Trailmon needed to get a group of humans to another Digital World. I'm the best at this thing so I volunteered. Said they'd have proof."
Curious, Shinya took a look at his phone. Seeing the message on it, he gasped and showed it to the train, "Shinya Kanbara's fare to Digital World 27 has been paid in full."
"Yup, that's it. So hop on."
In a rush, the group ran to the open doors, only to have them shut. "Only one fare has been confirmed."
With that, the group pulled out their cell phones to find similar messages. When they showed them to the train, he quickly let them pass. Once everyone was on board, he quickly pulled out and the group left their home.
…
Sara Damon looked at the sky before walking to the ruins of DATS headquarters where her son and husband had once worked. When she got there, she noticed that a strange circle that she knew as the Digital Dive was completely fixed and active. She had gotten a feeling that she had to come here and now was shocked that it had paid off. As she looked on, she heard footsteps and turned to see more people show up. One of these men, Kevin Crier looked at the Digital Dive in shock.
"How did it get fixed and active?"
Sara shrugged before speaking up, "I think it was activated for us."
Kevin looked at her before conceding, "I suppose you are right."
With that, the group all stepped on the Digital Dive and found themselves on different soil.
