Game Over.

This takes place approximately one hundred and three years after the battle with BurialMyotismon at the end of the second season.

Note: I have not seen Digimon movie 4 or 5 and I don't know how it would affect this. So for the sake of my sanity, I'll leave this fanfic as alternate universe type and completely disregard the newer movies.

Somewhere in the Digiworld, a rather large crowd of human and Digimon had gathered for a special occasion. A white haired woman walked up the podium and when everyone had quieted down, she began to speak.

"One hundred years to this day... a group of Digidestined and Digimon fought what would be the final battle against all that is evil in Digiworld. Unfortunately the battle was very long and hard and had spilled over to Earth. Many had paid the ultimate price in the process." Kari was trying to fight back the tear as she tried to recite the short history on the anniversary of the final battle. Being the last surviving member of the original Digidestined didn't help her at all. And at 114 years old, she was quite old even for human. "In the end, both Earth and Digiworld were nearly destroyed, and would have been completely destroyed if it were not for the courage of the five remaining Digidestined and Digimon partners."

"Today, we have erected monuments to honor the memory of those who gave their lives for peace." She stepped to the side to show a large white cloth hiding monuments in the back. She motioned to a giant angel and HolyAngemon spread out his wing and took off, pulling the cloth up. Underneath it were five gleaming white marble statues of the Digidestined and their Digimon partner. Enclosing the statues in half circle was a wall of black marble with names of Digimon and Digidestined who died around the world in ensuing battle that lasted a year.

The statues were arraigned in an inverted V with that of young Kari in the front, Angewomon to her side. To one side was the statue of Izzy and Tentomon, Willis and his twin Digimons. And to the other side were Mimi and Palmon, and finally Matt and Garurmon. The old and frail Kari leaned onto HolyAngemon for support. She knew about the statues but she hadn't seen them until today.



"Maybe I should back up and start from the beginning? I thought so; sorry sometime I might go a bit too far ahead. Well, I'll start from the beginning, which is about two years after BurialMyotismon was defeated. Many of the Digidestined had moved on to normal lives. A few had gotten married as well, including my great Uncle Tai to great Aunt Sora.

"It all started on an average night in Japan when Grandma Kari was having recurring nightmares. It was almost as if her Crest of Light was being threatened and it was warning Kari to an unforeseen danger...

Back in the past, approximately 2 years after the Digidestined saved both worlds, everything had been rather quiet. Matt and his successful band was doing world tours, Joe was on his way to earning a PhD, Yolie and Izzy keeps trying to up each other on computer knowledge, and Mimi has been in America for quite a while now.

Davis kept getting himself in trouble even if for no reason at all. Cody and Ken really didn't have anything special planned for their immediate future, although Ken had been dating Yolie for a while now.

Tai had moved out to live with his newlywed wife Sora. And TK had moved in to live with Kari. Of the original group, only TK and Kari were still attending school along with the second Digidestined group. The rest had since then graduated. One night, she woke up screaming rather loudly. She was sweating profusely. A blonde head peered from the top bunk and asked "Are you OK Kari?"

She was wiping sweat off her forehead and looked up to her boyfriend. "I think so. I had another horrible dream."

"Again?" Concerned, TK climbed down from his bed and sat next to Kari. Gatomon also entered the bedroom and hopped up next to Kari. "The same one...?" TK asked.

Kari only nodded. "Maybe I'm just having a little nightmarish relapse from when we were out saving worlds."

"I hope so. You haven't been sleeping well for the past week. I'll get you something to drink." The boy got up and left the room.

Gatomon looked at her partner with a worried look. "I've been with you a long time now and I know you sometimes don't tell the whole story if you knew it would worry anyone. I have a feeling you're not quite telling everything this time."

Kari looked at the cat Digimon. Gatomon had been like a second mother to her. "I'm sorry. I kept having a feeling that my dreams are not dream but rather the future yet to come." Her eyes came in direct contact with the cat's eyes. "Please don't tell anyone. I don't want anyone to worry over what may be nothing more than just bad dreams."

"You have my word." Just then TK came back in the room with a cold glass of water. He handed the glass to Kari. When she finished drinking them all, she felt a little better. A quick goodnight kiss later, TK was back on the top bunk and had drifted back to sleep once again. Kari however couldn't quite get to sleep. And for some reason Gatomon wasn't convinced that Kari's dreams were just bad dreams.

How would a nightmare lead to a near complete destruction of both worlds? To be continued...

I don't know when I'll do the rest of the story so this may remain as a teaser for quite a while. I do have all the notes for this fanfic. I'd like to finish up the other 2 I'm currently on including Rikamon (currently up) and Impmon's First Christmas (coming soon!) Even though this one is worth a G rating for now as it doesn't have anything unacceptable to anyone. But when I resume there will be some dark moments, possibly an R, PG-13 at the lowest. This is why I set the rating right now.

Oh and before you flame me for putting the wagon before the horse, I know putting the ending of the fanfic before the beginning is not always a good way to start a fanfic. But the beginning and ending alone rarely tell the whole story so don't judge the book by its cover. Plus there's more to the ending that I'll reveal at the end. =) Ok I'll drop another hint: the mystery of that 5 Digidestined... erm, wait a minute, I just got a warning glare from Grandma Kari not to spill the beans.s

Oh, and do me a favor? If it seems I'm taking way too long to resume this one, feel free to come over to my house and give a good hard kick to my rear.
