Me: Phew. I'm exhausted. I've got exams for the next month, so I'm afraid
not much will come out. I promise a really long chapter on each of my
stories on the 13th of June.
Zac~ Finally. A new chapter.
Me~ Finally? I first published this story less than three days ago.
Agumon~ But we want to know what happened.
Zac~ Me too.
Me~ You were there remember?? Anyway……
Agumon~ Oh, oh, I wanna do the disclaimer.
Me~ Fine, fine what ever.
Agumon~ Sarah doesn't own digimon, to her dismay. She only owns the characters as follows: Zac, Ben, Cassie, Louise, Sam, Lauren, Becky. Oh, and Wardramon. Isn't that already a digimon? Oh, and she owns the plot as well.
Me~ Wardramon probably is already a digimon, but I don't know. Apologies if it is.
Zac~ And now, since Agumon got to say the disclaimer- on with the second chapter of One Million Miles Into The Future!!!
When Zac entered the room, he saw the digidestined seated around the large table. His friends, and sisters were seated around them.
"Okay" he said, sitting down at the head of the table. Let's get this over and done with". He paused, and turned to the digidestined. "Your some of the famous digidestined, am I right?" he said. "Holders of Courage, Love, Friendship, Sincerity, Knowledge, Hope, Light, and both Love and Sincerity" The digidestined nodded.
"But who are you?" asked Tai. "I mean. We know your Zac. And we know Ben and Louise. Sort of. But….."
"Okay, okay. You want explanations? I'm the leader of a group called the D- Warriors. We're children from around the world, who have the power to battle digimon, make our own digimon digivolve. I'm Zac, and I'm 15. Ben is 14, and our mechanic, computer expert. Cassandra, or Cassie…." said Zac, pointing to a blond haired, blue eyed girl, sitting next to Ben "...Is also 14, and she mostly helps out Ben. My sister Louise, she's 13, and she also helps Ben. Somewhat of a ladies man, though I can't see why". Ben glared at Zac, while Louise and Cassie blushed. Everyone else laughed. "Sam" continued Zac, pointing to a brown haired, ruby eyed little boy "Is 12, and is in charge of the peace keepers. A special group, inside the D- warriors, to try and keep peace in certain areas of the world. Then there's Lauren". Pointing to a younger, blond haired, brown eyed girl he said "She's 9, and. Well. She's like me. Getting to the point. Fighting, whether necessary or not. Then, there's Becky, my 6 year old sister. She helps Sam a lot".
"Cool. But. How did you get our digimon?" asked Matt, noticing Gabumon, Gatomon and Hawkmon enter the room, their eyes going wide".
"Erm. We'll come to that. Later. Much, later" said Zac.
"Okay then" said Tai. "One more question".
"Geez, their sounding like Ben" muttered Cassie. "Questions, questions, questions".
"What happened to Odaiba? The world even"
"Well. I'm guessing you already know that" said Becky.
"We don't. Something happened to us" said Mimi. "We got transported here. About 15 minutes ago, all of us digidestined were at the park, hanging out and stuff".
"And stuff" muttered Sora.
"Of you've got something to say to me Sora, say it to my face" said Mimi, angrily.
"To your face huh?" asked Sora, just as angry. "I'll tell you something to your face, you backstabbing bitch".
"You're the bitch, bitch" said Mimi. Sora's eyes flashed with anger. She reeled back her hand, and slapped Mimi hard across the
face.
"You cow" said Mimi, aiming to hit her back. A hand stopped her. Looking back, Mimi saw Izzy, his arm around her wrist.
"We have an 8 year old present, and we're trying to find out what happened" said Izzy, calmly, despite the look Mimi was giving him. "Resolve the fighting to later?". Mimi looked at Izzy, then at Zac, who had an amused look on his face. Mimi nodded, and Izzy let go of her wrist. Sitting down, Matt wrapped his arms around Mimi's shoulder. Tai, who had been holding Sora around the waist, to prevent her from leaping at Mimi's throat, released his grip, and sat down. Sora did the same.
"Okay. Now that that's settled. You wanna know what happened?" Before Zac could continued his story, a loud alarm went off. Zac jumped up, and a red light began flashing in the room.
"Not again" said Becky, looking frightened. She grabbed onto the first person she saw, which happened to be Sora.
(The group are sitting, on a rectangular table, six each side, with two at the bottom of the table, from Zac's left. Zac, Yolei, Izzy, Mimi, Matt, Louise, Ben, Cassie, Sam, Kari, T.K, Tai, Sora, Becky, Lauren. Table thin enough to reach over and slap someone hard across the face, trust me).
"Come on, let's go" said Zac, standing up. "Lauren, Becky, you two stay here. Don't tell them anything until we get back okay?" Becky just nodded, clinging tighter to Sora's arm. With that, Zac, Ben, Louise, Cassie and Sam ran out the room, followed by Agumon, Patamon, Tentomon, Biyomon and Gatomon. The door slammed shut, leaving the digidestined, Becky, Lauren, Palmon, Hawkmon and Gabumon.
Hawkmon leapt into Yolei's arms, hugging her.
"Yolei, it's been quite a while" he said.
"Same here Hawkmon" said Yolei, hugging him back. Gabumon smiled.
"Matt" he said, leaping into the boys arm.
"Gabumon, buddy, how's it been?"
"Terrible Matt, first……"
"Zac said not to tell anything" said Becky, from within Sora's arms.
"He told you not to say anything, not us" said Gabumon.
"I'll tell" said Becky.
"Me too" added Lauren.
"So there" they said in unison, sticking their tongues out at the dog-like digimon.
"He can tell us if he wants too" said Matt.
"Just shut it Matt. You heard Zac" said Sora, who was busy letting Becky crawl onto her lap.
"Who cares what Zac says?" asked Matt. "He's 15 years old".
"He's the leader" said Lauren. "You have to listen to him".
"No I don't" said Matt. "None of us do. We're not part of the D-warriors, so we don't have to take orders from him, or anyone for that matter". Lauren's eyes filled with tears. Tai got up, and put a reassuring hand on the young girls shoulder.
"Don't be so mean Matt" said Yolei. "She's only 9".
"Well Matt's right" said Mimi.
"We need to find out what happened you two" said Kari. "And why we're here".
"I have a better idea" said Matt. "Let's leave now, and find a way to get home".
"We're not leaving Matt" said Tai. Kari had taken Tai's place in comforting Lauren. "I wanna know why we're here, and what's happened".
"Who cares, this isn't even our time zone Tai" said Matt. Becky leant over, and whispered something into Laurens ear.
"He usually is" replied Lauren.
"Okay, that's it" said Matt, aiming a punch at Tai. He was knocked down.
"Matt, what do you think your doing?" asked T.K. "What did Izzy say earlier?"
"Tai, are you alright?" asked Sora, kneeling next to him, while still hugging Becky. Tai nodded, glaring evils at Matt. He got up, and was about to throw another punch…..
"Okay, we're done" said Zac entering the room. Everyone else followed.
"That was fast" said Izzy.
"Oh, false alarm" said Zac. "You know? Like a fire drill. They go off randomly, like, once a week or something. I dunno, Ben rigged them up".
"So, how do you know of there's a real, whatever the bell is for?" asked Tai, rubbing his bruised cheek. Zac shrugged.
"Then….." began Yolei.
"It's simple really" said Cassie, taking her seat next to Ben. "The false alarm stops after a set amount of time. The real one is louder, has a different sound, and the flash is brighter. Also, it doesn't automatically turn off. Ben has to do it manually".
"Cool" said Izzy. "That'd be great for our school fire drill".
"Yeah, yeah" said Tai, not wanting to get into electronics. "About what happened?".
"Okay" said Zac. "Since you really want to know……"
"Hurry up" said Matt, impatiently. Zac sighed.
"I swear, he was annoying then, he's annoying now".
"What?" asked Matt.
get on with it" complained Mimi. Each digidestined relaxed, knowing a story like this could take a while. Becky hugged Sora tighter, while Tai's arm snaked around Sora's waist. Matt and Mimi sat closer to each other, as did T.K and Kari. Izzy and Yolei sat poised at the lap top, ready to take things down, while the other D-warriors, who have heard the story before, groaned. All waited in anticipation, as Zac began his story.
"It was exactly one year after your defeat of Malomyotismon" began Zac. "Or, 5 months after Sora and Matt broke up, that's easier. Anyway. An evil digimon, called Wardramon found a way to enter the real world. From what my reliable sources told me, he'd been gathering troops ever since the defeat of Malomyotismon. Digimon who you've battled before. Digimon who were against you guys. He even managed to create his own digimon, more powerful that Kimeramon. We don't know how, but he's also managed to bring Devimon, the four dark masters, Myotismon, Venomyotismon, Malomyotismon and Daemon back to life"
"All of them?" asked Tai. "Damn"
"Yeah, exactly" said Zac. "But he managed to bring them back even more powerful. It was a full scale attack on the real world. He came through in the middle of the night, so not to arouse suspicion, I guess. Half of Odaiba was destroyed in one hour. The digimon spread over the world. The guys fought back of course. But ever since then, it's been a continuous war. Every digimon that's destroyed comes back, even our digimon. Families were killed, or captured and tortured. They wanted it to continue, so Wardramon could seek revenge on all evil. Of course, the digidestined wanted to come out, but they couldn't, because they knew that if they did, they'd be destroyed, and Wardramon would still continue his attack, and totally destroy Earth. With us in hiding, and only secluded to a single sector in each major Digidestined city, they couldn't find us. There are a couple of million people left in the world I'm guessing, excluding the digidestined and about a quarter of that working for Wardramon, trying to find and destroy us".
"And It's been going on since 2003?" asked Matt.
"What year is it again?" asked Izzy.
"2022" said Ben.
"19 years?" asked Izzy, shocked. "This has been going on for 19 years?"
"No way" said Yolei.
"Well it has" said Zac. "Now, not only is Wardramon sending troops through to the real world every time he creates a digital rip, but there are neutral digimon, who are arguing with the digimon on both the good and evil sides. Sam and Becky have to keep them at peace, before they start a whole new war".
"Sounds like something from a science fiction movie or something" said Izzy.
"So tell me something" said T.K. "Who told you this?"
"Yeah" said Yolei. "By my calculations, you were born 4 years after the war started. In 2007 right?" Zac nodded.
"I got my info from a reliable source" said Zac. "Former leader of the D- warriors".
"Who was that?" asked Kari.
"Oh Geez" said Sam. "For digidestined, your sure are slow. It was Tai"
"Me?" asked Tai, shocked. Every D-warrior nodded. "So, does that mean, I retired or something?"
"No" said Zac. "All you digidestined, plus Davis, Cody, Ken and Joe were the frontal force. The main members of the D-warriors. The leader, second in command, technicians experts, medical care, peacekeepers".
"Then what happened?" asked Sora.
"About 5 years ago" said Zac, sighing. "You all went on a peace mission. You were going to visit Shinjuku, because some of the good and evil supporter digimon had gotten into a huge fight, which has lasted for at least 3 days. You also need to recruit some more digimon. But on the way…….Piedmon attacked you. Everyone checked the wreckage, but you weren't there".
"We died?" asked Mimi. Zac nodded.
"Then I because leader" he said. "Tai trusted me the most".
"So, we all died?" asked Tai. "Us lot here. Davis and everyone".
"Davis, Joe, Cody and Ken didn't die" said Louise.
"Then why wasn't Davis named leader?" asked Izzy.
"About 5 days before, all four travelled to America. There was a big attack on New York city going on, and those four volunteered to go".
"So, they're still alive?" asked Kari.
"We don't know" said Ben. "We haven't heard from them in almost 4 years. They might be too busy, they could have been captured, or killed in an attack".
"So that rules out every digidestined" said T.K.
"What about other digidestined?" asked Yolei. "Yuri, Sonya, all those guys".
"And Catherine" said T.K, smiling.
"Catherine?" asked Kari, raising an eyebrow.
"T.K gave her, her first kiss" said Tai, smiling.
"So did you" retorted T.K.
"You did, did you?" asked Kari.
"It was only on the cheek" said T.K sheepishly.
"Who kissed her first?" asked Yolei, smirking.
"Same time" said Tai. "But we're getting off the subject. Back to….Matt's…..question. How did you guys get our digimon? And what digimon does Becky have? And why don't Hawkmon or Gabumon have a partner?".
"Well….." said Zac. "We're not sure if we should tell you that".
"Please" said Kari.
"Well" said Zac. "Not now. Let's just say, they trusted us the most. And Becky…..you can ask Agumon and Biyomon. ". Tai and Sora raised their eyebrows. Becky giggled.
"That's about it" said Zac. "Alright. I'm worn out, tired, and sleepy. Oh, and hungry, who wants food?".
"I do" came a chorus of voices.
"Erm. How exactly do you get food?" asked Izzy. Ben, Cassie and Louise smiled.
"You'll see" said Ben, exiting the room. Everyone followed.
"You have some place here" said Izzy, examining the equipment as the gang travelled through a hall way.
"It looks familiar" said Matt.
"It should" said Zac. "It's the school".
"It is?" asked Yolei.
"That's so cool".
"We thought it's be best if we had the school as our HQ. Monitor digimon battles going on. There's a small hospital wing where the staff room, nurses office and the toilets used to be".
"But, the school is at least half an hour from my house" said Tai. "Why is it in this sector?"
"We decided that the sector the school was originally in, was too dangerous. A lot of the digital rips were forming there, so we got Wargreymon, Metalgarurumon, Imperialdramon, Shakuamon, Silphymon, Herculeskabuterimon, Marineangemon and Phoenixmon to airlift it here".
"Cool" said Tai.
"But who are Herculeskabuterimon, Marineangemon and Phoenixmon?" asked Izzy.
"Take a huge guess" said Ben.
"Tentomon, Gomamon and Biyomon's mega forms?" asked Yolei.
"Correct" said Cassie.
"Way cool" said T.K.
"They all managed to warp digivolve about 5 months after the attacks started, I think" said Zac. Sam nodded.
"First it was Biyomon, when….." Zac shook his head.
"Don't tell them how Sam" he said. "It'll spoil everything".
"Okay" said Sam. "Biyomon, then Tentomon, then Gomamon. It was in the heat of battle, all three of them".
"Prodigious" said Izzy.
"Well, grubs up" said Zac, opening the door to the cafeteria.
"It's smaller than I remember" said Mimi.
"We had to use up some space for Ben's technician work" said Louise. "Besides, it's only really us, and the tamers here eating, so it doesn't matter".
"Tamers?" asked Matt. "(Yes, I've managed to warp them into my story. There all 15, Ryo's 16 and Susie's 10, or 11 or however many years younger she is that Henry, I dunno. Anyway…)
"Yeah" said Zac. "There's not digidestined, because they've never been to the digital world, but they have digimon, and digivices, which they call D- powers".
"Takato, Henry, his little sister Susie, Rika, Ryo and Jeri. There's also Kenta and Kazu, but their helping Davis and the others in America" said Ben.
"So, what digimon do they have?" asked Izzy.
"Takato has Guilmon, a digimon he created himself, don't ask how" said Cassie. "Henry has Terriermon, Susie has Lopmon, Rika has Renamon, Ryo had Cyberdramon and Jeri has Leomon. I'm not sure what digimon Kenta and Kazu have".
"Where are they now?" asked Kari.
"Somewhere" said Louise. "We haven't heard from them in a while, but we know their okay"
"How?" asked Kari.
"Ever heard of aero mail?" asked Zac.
"Duh, we're not from this time zone" said Matt.
"I heard you the first time" said Zac. "Anyway. We D-warriors use a form of mail called Aero mail. Izzy, Yolei and Ben came up with it. Each group of D- warriors is each digidestined city of the world has an aero digimon. Something like a Unimon, or Kuagamon or something like that. Each major digidestined city has a different one, which is logged in the computers. Once a week, the digimon come here, wearing tags. A different coloured tag for each digidestined. If a tag isn't there, that means that that particular digidestined is missing, captured or dead".
"So you should know if Davis and the others are alive" said T.K. "Through this aero mail thing".
"They don't have an Aero digimon" said Ben. "They keep moving around America, helping out whoever needs help. They only stay in one place for 4 or 5 days I'm guessing, or someone would have put their tags on their digimon".
"And how do the others know if your still alive?" asked Sora.
"We give the digimon a piece of paper" said Lauren. "With 7 ticks on it. That means that all seven of us are alright".
"And if there's a tick missing, that means one of us are missing" said Becky.
"Very interesting" said Izzy. "Very smart".
"But what if…." began Tai.
"Enough questions" said Zac. "I'm still hungry".
"Well, what about this food?" asked Mimi. "How do you get it?"
"What's your favourite food?" asked Ben, smiling.
"Well. Right now I'd go for a chilli dog, fries and a soda" said Mimi.
"Chilli dog, fries, and a soda" came a mechanical voice. The digidestined jumped.
"What was that?" asked Matt. Smiling again, Ben opened a small door in a machine, and brought out…..
"Chilli dog, Fries and a soda. Chilled of course" he said.
"What? But how?" asked Mimi, shocked.
"It's a replicating machine" said Cassie. "Like on Star Trek. You know?"
"So like. You ask for anything, and it'll make it for you?" asked Tai. Ben nodded.
"Would it make…...A double cheese burger, with onions and bacon, fries, root beer and a large chocolate cookie?" asked Tai.
"Double cheese burger with onions and bacon" came the mechanical voice. "Fries, root beer and a large chocolate cookie". The door opened once again, and there sat Tai's tray of food.
"Alright" said Tai, grabbing it.
"Prodigious" said Izzy.
"How does it work?" asked Yolei.
"It's simple really" said Ben. "With Izzy and Yolei's help of course, we studied the atom structure, and food materials used to make certain foods. We uploaded this data onto a single disk, which works like a processing machine. It's voice activated, so when you ask for a certain food, the computer will look it up, process the data, rearrange the atoms, and produce the food".
"But, taste. Smell? Texture?" asked Izzy.
"All in the atoms" said Ben. "You created some kind of chip, which holds food information. When a food is ordered, the information about taste, smell, texture is downloaded into the processing sequence. The atoms are already stored in the computer mainframe, and once every week, we add certain foods, which we cryogenically froze for later use. There's some meat. Vegetables and the like. We take some of the atoms, and store them in the mainframe, so the computer can re-process them".
"What?" asked Tai. "Sorry, I stopped listening after you said the words…'It's simple really'".
"Never mind" said Zac. "Just enjoy your food".
"Zac, can I ask you a question?" asked Izzy.
"Not again" moaned Zac.
"Just one" said Izzy.
"Go on then".
"Where are your parents?". Zac stopped dead, and turned to Izzy.
"What?" he asked.
"Where are your parents?" repeated Izzy.
"They're dead" said Zac. "During one of the attacks, about 6 years ago. All our parents were caught in the blast. It was probably the worst day of my life. Everybody else's too".
"That bad huh?" said Matt. "Do you know exactly what happened?".
"They were going to visit some people in a different city" said Zac. "It was dangerous, everybody knew that. We told them not to go, because it was too dangerous. Tai, you only wanted some of them to go, not all of them, because of us. And especially not Lauren's mum, because she was pregnant".
"She was?" asked Sora. "How far along was she?"
"About 4 months" said Zac.
"So, that's when you came here?" asked Tai.
"We were always a part of the D-warriors" said Ben. "From birth we all were. It was just one of those things".
"Do you still visit their graves?" asked Kari.
"Every year. On the day they died" said Zac.
"When's that?" asked Yolei.
"In three day's time" said Lauren.
"We bring them flowers and everything" said Becky.
"Could we possibly come?" asked Sora sheepishly.
"No you can't" said Zac angrily. "No-one but us can visit our parent's grave".
"Okay, okay" said Sora. "Stressy".
"He doesn't mean it" whispered Becky into Sora's ear. "He just doesn't like people at our parents grave, that's all".
Just then, 5 people rushed into the room.
"Henry. Rika, Takato. Jeri, Susie what are you going here?" asked Lauren.
"Hey guys" said Zac. "I'd like you to meet the digidestined"
"No time" said Henry "We've just received word from Kenta and Kazu".
"What about Henry?" asked Zac, worriedly.
"They said that The four dark masters and Myotismon have attack New York city" said Henry. "Only around a dozen survived".
"Out of over a thousand??" asked Ben. "No way".
"Way" said Rika. "That's not the worst part though".
"It's not?" asked Louise. "Rika, what is it?". The Tamers exchanged glances.
"They're coming to Odaiba" said Takato. "They're on their way now".
"What??" asked Zac. "Please tell me your joking right?"
"We're not" said Jeri.
"This cannot be worse" said Ben.
"I wouldn't count on it" said Jeri.
"Why not?" asked Zac.
"They're bringing Wardramon".
Me~ alright, alright. Done and dusted. And in the words of Calumon:
Calumon zoom, zoom, here zoom, there zoom, Calamon zoom, zoom, no underwear zoom!
Zac~ Finally. A new chapter.
Me~ Finally? I first published this story less than three days ago.
Agumon~ But we want to know what happened.
Zac~ Me too.
Me~ You were there remember?? Anyway……
Agumon~ Oh, oh, I wanna do the disclaimer.

"Okay, okay. You want explanations? I'm the leader of a group called the D- Warriors. We're children from around the world, who have the power to battle digimon, make our own digimon digivolve.

She's like me. Getting to the point. Fighting, whether necessary or not. Then, there's Becky, my 6 year old sister. She helps Sam a lot".
"Cool. But. How did you get our digimon?" asked Matt, noticing Gabumon, Gatomon and Hawkmon enter the room, their eyes going wide".
"Erm. We'll come to that. Later. Much, later" said Zac.
"Okay then" said Tai. "One more question".
"Geez, their sounding like Ben" muttered Cassie. "Questions, questions, questions".
"What happened to Odaiba? The world even"
"Well. I'm guessing you already know that" said Becky.
"We don't. Something happened to us" said Mimi. "We got transported here. About 15 minutes ago, all of us digidestined were at the park, hanging out and stuff".

"Come on, let's go" said Zac, standing up. "Lauren, Becky, you two stay here. Don't tell them anything until we get back okay?" Becky just nodded, clinging tighter to Sora's arm. With that, Zac, Ben, Louise, Cassie and Sam ran out the room, followed by Agumon, Patamon, Tentomon, Biyomon and Gatomon.

"He can tell us if he wants too" said Matt.
"Just shut it Matt. You heard Zac" said Sora, who was busy letting Becky crawl onto her lap.

"Well Matt's right" said Mimi.
"We need to find out what happened you two" said Kari. "And why we're here".
"I have a better idea" said Matt. "Let's leave now, and find a way to get home".
"We're not leaving Matt" said Tai. Kari had taken Tai's place in comforting Lauren. "I wanna know why we're here, and what's happened".

"He usually is" replied Lauren.
"Okay, that's it" said Matt, aiming a punch at Tai. He was knocked down.
"Matt, what do you think your doing?" asked T.K. "What did Izzy say earlier?"
"Tai, are you alright?" asked Sora, kneeling next to him, while still hugging Becky. Tai nodded, glaring evils at Matt. He got up, and was about to throw another punch…..
"Okay, we're done" said Zac entering the room. Everyone else followed.
"That was fast" said Izzy.
"Oh, false alarm" said Zac. "You know? Like a fire drill. They go off randomly, like, once a week or something. I dunno, Ben rigged them up".
"So, how do you know of there's a real, whatever the bell is for?" asked Tai, rubbing his bruised cheek. Zac shrugged.
"Then….." began Yolei.
"It's simple really" said Cassie, taking her seat next to Ben. "The false alarm stops after a set amount of time. The real one is louder, has a different sound, and the flash is brighter. Also, it doesn't automatically turn off. Ben has to do it manually".
"Cool" said Izzy. "That'd be great for our school fire drill".
"Yeah, yeah" said Tai, not wanting to get into electronics. "About what happened?".
"Okay" said Zac. "Since you really want to know……"
"Hurry up" said Matt, impatiently. Zac sighed.
"I swear, he was annoying then, he's annoying now".
"What?" asked Matt.
get on with it" complained Mimi. Each digidestined relaxed, knowing a story like this could take a while. Becky hugged Sora tighter, while Tai's arm snaked around Sora's waist. Matt and Mimi sat closer to each other, as did T.K and Kari. Izzy and Yolei sat poised at the lap top, ready to take things down, while the other D-warriors, who have heard the story before, groaned. All waited in anticipation, as Zac began his story.
"It was exactly one year after your defeat of Malomyotismon" began Zac. "Or, 5 months after Sora and Matt broke up, that's easier. Anyway. An evil digimon, called Wardramon found a way to enter the real world. From what my reliable sources told me, he'd been gathering troops ever since the defeat of Malomyotismon. Digimon who you've battled before. Digimon who were against you guys. He even managed to create his own digimon, more powerful that Kimeramon. We don't know how, but he's also managed to bring Devimon, the four dark masters, Myotismon, Venomyotismon, Malomyotismon and Daemon back to life"
"All of them?" asked Tai. "Damn"
"Yeah, exactly" said Zac. "But he managed to bring them back even more powerful. It was a full scale attack on the real world. He came through in the middle of the night, so not to arouse suspicion, I guess. Half of Odaiba was destroyed in one hour. The digimon spread over the world. The guys fought back of course. But ever since then, it's been a continuous war. Every digimon that's destroyed comes back, even our digimon. Families were killed, or captured and tortured. They wanted it to continue, so Wardramon could seek revenge on all evil. Of course, the digidestined wanted to come out, but they couldn't, because they knew that if they did, they'd be destroyed, and Wardramon would still continue his attack, and totally destroy Earth. With us in hiding, and only secluded to a single sector in each major Digidestined city, they couldn't find us. There are a couple of million people left in the world I'm guessing, excluding the digidestined and about a quarter of that working for Wardramon, trying to find and destroy us".
"And It's been going on since 2003?" asked Matt.
"What year is it again?" asked Izzy.
"2022" said Ben.
"19 years?" asked Izzy, shocked. "This has been going on for 19 years?"
"No way" said Yolei.
"Well it has" said Zac. "Now, not only is Wardramon sending troops through to the real world every time he creates a digital rip, but there are neutral digimon, who are arguing with the digimon on both the good and evil sides. Sam and Becky have to keep them at peace, before they start a whole new war".
"Sounds like something from a science fiction movie or something" said Izzy.
"So tell me something" said T.K. "Who told you this?"
"Yeah" said Yolei. "By my calculations, you were born 4 years after the war started. In 2007 right?" Zac nodded.
"I got my info from a reliable source" said Zac. "Former leader of the D- warriors".
"Who was that?" asked Kari.
"Oh Geez" said Sam. "For digidestined, your sure are slow. It was Tai"
"Me?" asked Tai, shocked. Every D-warrior nodded. "So, does that mean, I retired or something?"
"No" said Zac. "All you digidestined, plus Davis, Cody, Ken and Joe were the frontal force. The main members of the D-warriors. The leader, second in command, technicians experts, medical care, peacekeepers".
"Then what happened?" asked Sora.
"About 5 years ago" said Zac, sighing. "You all went on a peace mission. You were going to visit Shinjuku, because some of the good and evil supporter digimon had gotten into a huge fight, which has lasted for at least 3 days. You also need to recruit some more digimon. But on the way…….Piedmon attacked you. Everyone checked the wreckage, but you weren't there".
"We died?" asked Mimi. Zac nodded.
"Then I because leader" he said. "Tai trusted me the most".
"So, we all died?" asked Tai. "Us lot here. Davis and everyone".
"Davis, Joe, Cody and Ken didn't die" said Louise.
"Then why wasn't Davis named leader?" asked Izzy.
"About 5 days before, all four travelled to America. There was a big attack on New York city going on, and those four volunteered to go".
"So, they're still alive?" asked Kari.
"We don't know" said Ben. "We haven't heard from them in almost 4 years. They might be too busy, they could have been captured, or killed in an attack".
"So that rules out every digidestined" said T.K.
"What about other digidestined?" asked Yolei. "Yuri, Sonya, all those guys".
"And Catherine" said T.K, smiling.
"Catherine?" asked Kari, raising an eyebrow.
"T.K gave her, her first kiss" said Tai, smiling.
"So did you" retorted T.K.
"You did, did you?" asked Kari.
"It was only on the cheek" said T.K sheepishly.
"Who kissed her first?" asked Yolei, smirking.
"Same time" said Tai. "But we're getting off the subject. Back to….Matt's…..question. How did you guys get our digimon? And what digimon does Becky have? And why don't Hawkmon or Gabumon have a partner?".
"Well….." said Zac. "We're not sure if we should tell you that".
"Please" said Kari.
"Well" said Zac. "Not now. Let's just say, they trusted us the most. And Becky…..you can ask Agumon and Biyomon. ". Tai and Sora raised their eyebrows. Becky giggled.
"That's about it" said Zac. "Alright. I'm worn out, tired, and sleepy. Oh, and hungry, who wants food?".
"I do" came a chorus of voices.
"Erm. How exactly do you get food?" asked Izzy. Ben, Cassie and Louise smiled.
"You'll see" said Ben, exiting the room. Everyone followed.
"You have some place here" said Izzy, examining the equipment as the gang travelled through a hall way.
"It looks familiar" said Matt.
"It should" said Zac. "It's the school".
"It is?" asked Yolei.
"That's so cool".
"We thought it's be best if we had the school as our HQ. Monitor digimon battles going on. There's a small hospital wing where the staff room, nurses office and the toilets used to be".
"But, the school is at least half an hour from my house" said Tai. "Why is it in this sector?"
"We decided that the sector the school was originally in, was too dangerous. A lot of the digital rips were forming there, so we got Wargreymon, Metalgarurumon, Imperialdramon, Shakuamon, Silphymon, Herculeskabuterimon, Marineangemon and Phoenixmon to airlift it here".
"Cool" said Tai.
"But who are Herculeskabuterimon, Marineangemon and Phoenixmon?" asked Izzy.
"Take a huge guess" said Ben.
"Tentomon, Gomamon and Biyomon's mega forms?" asked Yolei.
"Correct" said Cassie.
"Way cool" said T.K.
"They all managed to warp digivolve about 5 months after the attacks started, I think" said Zac. Sam nodded.
"First it was Biyomon, when….." Zac shook his head.
"Don't tell them how Sam" he said. "It'll spoil everything".
"Okay" said Sam. "Biyomon, then Tentomon, then Gomamon. It was in the heat of battle, all three of them".
"Prodigious" said Izzy.
"Well, grubs up" said Zac, opening the door to the cafeteria.
"It's smaller than I remember" said Mimi.
"We had to use up some space for Ben's technician work" said Louise. "Besides, it's only really us, and the tamers here eating, so it doesn't matter".
"Tamers?" asked Matt. "(Yes, I've managed to warp them into my story. There all 15, Ryo's 16 and Susie's 10, or 11 or however many years younger she is that Henry, I dunno. Anyway…)
"Yeah" said Zac. "There's not digidestined, because they've never been to the digital world, but they have digimon, and digivices, which they call D- powers".
"Takato, Henry, his little sister Susie, Rika, Ryo and Jeri. There's also Kenta and Kazu, but their helping Davis and the others in America" said Ben.
"So, what digimon do they have?" asked Izzy.
"Takato has Guilmon, a digimon he created himself, don't ask how" said Cassie. "Henry has Terriermon, Susie has Lopmon, Rika has Renamon, Ryo had Cyberdramon and Jeri has Leomon. I'm not sure what digimon Kenta and Kazu have".
"Where are they now?" asked Kari.
"Somewhere" said Louise. "We haven't heard from them in a while, but we know their okay"
"How?" asked Kari.
"Ever heard of aero mail?" asked Zac.
"Duh, we're not from this time zone" said Matt.
"I heard you the first time" said Zac. "Anyway. We D-warriors use a form of mail called Aero mail. Izzy, Yolei and Ben came up with it. Each group of D- warriors is each digidestined city of the world has an aero digimon. Something like a Unimon, or Kuagamon or something like that. Each major digidestined city has a different one, which is logged in the computers. Once a week, the digimon come here, wearing tags. A different coloured tag for each digidestined. If a tag isn't there, that means that that particular digidestined is missing, captured or dead".
"So you should know if Davis and the others are alive" said T.K. "Through this aero mail thing".
"They don't have an Aero digimon" said Ben. "They keep moving around America, helping out whoever needs help. They only stay in one place for 4 or 5 days I'm guessing, or someone would have put their tags on their digimon".
"And how do the others know if your still alive?" asked Sora.
"We give the digimon a piece of paper" said Lauren. "With 7 ticks on it. That means that all seven of us are alright".
"And if there's a tick missing, that means one of us are missing" said Becky.
"Very interesting" said Izzy. "Very smart".
"But what if…." began Tai.
"Enough questions" said Zac. "I'm still hungry".
"Well, what about this food?" asked Mimi. "How do you get it?"
"What's your favourite food?" asked Ben, smiling.
"Well. Right now I'd go for a chilli dog, fries and a soda" said Mimi.
"Chilli dog, fries, and a soda" came a mechanical voice. The digidestined jumped.
"What was that?" asked Matt. Smiling again, Ben opened a small door in a machine, and brought out…..
"Chilli dog, Fries and a soda. Chilled of course" he said.
"What? But how?" asked Mimi, shocked.
"It's a replicating machine" said Cassie. "Like on Star Trek. You know?"
"So like. You ask for anything, and it'll make it for you?" asked Tai. Ben nodded.
"Would it make…...A double cheese burger, with onions and bacon, fries, root beer and a large chocolate cookie?" asked Tai.
"Double cheese burger with onions and bacon" came the mechanical voice. "Fries, root beer and a large chocolate cookie". The door opened once again, and there sat Tai's tray of food.
"Alright" said Tai, grabbing it.
"Prodigious" said Izzy.
"How does it work?" asked Yolei.
"It's simple really" said Ben. "With Izzy and Yolei's help of course, we studied the atom structure, and food materials used to make certain foods. We uploaded this data onto a single disk, which works like a processing machine. It's voice activated, so when you ask for a certain food, the computer will look it up, process the data, rearrange the atoms, and produce the food".
"But, taste. Smell? Texture?" asked Izzy.
"All in the atoms" said Ben. "You created some kind of chip, which holds food information. When a food is ordered, the information about taste, smell, texture is downloaded into the processing sequence. The atoms are already stored in the computer mainframe, and once every week, we add certain foods, which we cryogenically froze for later use. There's some meat. Vegetables and the like. We take some of the atoms, and store them in the mainframe, so the computer can re-process them".
"What?" asked Tai. "Sorry, I stopped listening after you said the words…'It's simple really'".
"Never mind" said Zac. "Just enjoy your food".
"Zac, can I ask you a question?" asked Izzy.
"Not again" moaned Zac.
"Just one" said Izzy.
"Go on then".
"Where are your parents?". Zac stopped dead, and turned to Izzy.
"What?" he asked.
"Where are your parents?" repeated Izzy.
"They're dead" said Zac. "During one of the attacks, about 6 years ago. All our parents were caught in the blast. It was probably the worst day of my life. Everybody else's too".
"That bad huh?" said Matt. "Do you know exactly what happened?".
"They were going to visit some people in a different city" said Zac. "It was dangerous, everybody knew that. We told them not to go, because it was too dangerous. Tai, you only wanted some of them to go, not all of them, because of us. And especially not Lauren's mum, because she was pregnant".
"She was?" asked Sora. "How far along was she?"
"About 4 months" said Zac.
"So, that's when you came here?" asked Tai.
"We were always a part of the D-warriors" said Ben. "From birth we all were. It was just one of those things".
"Do you still visit their graves?" asked Kari.
"Every year. On the day they died" said Zac.
"When's that?" asked Yolei.
"In three day's time" said Lauren.
"We bring them flowers and everything" said Becky.
"Could we possibly come?" asked Sora sheepishly.
"No you can't" said Zac angrily. "No-one but us can visit our parent's grave".
"Okay, okay" said Sora. "Stressy".
"He doesn't mean it" whispered Becky into Sora's ear. "He just doesn't like people at our parents grave, that's all".
Just then, 5 people rushed into the room.
"Henry. Rika, Takato. Jeri, Susie what are you going here?" asked Lauren.
"Hey guys" said Zac. "I'd like you to meet the digidestined"
"No time" said Henry "We've just received word from Kenta and Kazu".
"What about Henry?" asked Zac, worriedly.
"They said that The four dark masters and Myotismon have attack New York city" said Henry. "Only around a dozen survived".
"Out of over a thousand??" asked Ben. "No way".
"Way" said Rika. "That's not the worst part though".
"It's not?" asked Louise. "Rika, what is it?". The Tamers exchanged glances.
"They're coming to Odaiba" said Takato. "They're on their way now".
"What??" asked Zac. "Please tell me your joking right?"
"We're not" said Jeri.
"This cannot be worse" said Ben.
"I wouldn't count on it" said Jeri.
"Why not?" asked Zac.
"They're bringing Wardramon".
Me~ alright, alright. Done and dusted. And in the words of Calumon:
