Exveemon squeezed his eyes shut as they where Downloaded. One of the few good effects of the Glitch was Daisuke's new ability to Download and Reload data at will without a Digivice. Of course there had to be a computer gate already opened from the Digital World, but it was a minor problem.
Exveemon re-appeared in the armory in the headquarters of the Digital World. He was alone in the room. He would only be in Daisuke's way, and Daisuke was going to have enough on his hands with the rest of the Chosen Children. It would be Exveemon's job to make sure the other partner Digimon didn't have nervous breakdowns at seeing their partners, who of course would have no idea who the Digimon where.
"I'd better get started."
Focusing his energy, he felt himself shrink into the familiar form of Veemon. Light blue hair, yellow marks imprinted lightly on his forehead, Veemon watched his human-like reflection in the mirror before turning to leave the room. His outfit consisted of a blue sleeve-less vest with white stripes, matching gloves, and a pair of denim shorts.
Shutting the door to the room, Veemon started off along the corridor. The hallways always reminded the rookie of those television shows Daisuke use to watch, with lasers and aliens.
As Veemon approached the "Basement", loud shouts reached his ears, dimmed by the fact that the double doors in front of him where still closed. It appeared that Gatsumon and Agumon where at it again.
Taking a huge breath, Veemon prepared for his imminent doom, and stepped forward.

Hikari felt herself re-appear in a brightly lit room. It reminded her of a futuristic movie set, one with real equipment that worked. The blue dragon boy had vanished from sight, and Daisuke was already moving towards the nearest door as she got her bearings.
"Gennai will want to see you. Come on, ugoki [1] people!" Daisuke motioned for them to follow him into the next room. Exchanging a glance with her girlfriend, who looked ready to murder Daisuke, Hikari followed the rest into the other room.
Hikari was instantly reminded of her grandparent's house, or some old Japanese house way out on the edge of the city. Sitting at a low table, his head bowed, was a robed figure. He was rather short, and judging from his hands, which where resting neatly on the table, he was very old. As Daisuke approached, the man spoke to him, not removing his mysterious hood.
"Daisuke, you've returned. And I see you've brought them with you. Good! I trust there where no problems?"
"Unfortunately there was a small problem, which could cause a larger one later on. A Parrotmon showed up, Tagged, of course. Exveemon deleted him."
"I see. Well, you did the best you could. The important thing was that no one was hurt."
The man turned to survey the group around him, before he got to his feet slowly, as though it had become very hard to do. Then, he pulled back his hood.
The human facing Hikari was older than anyone she had ever seen before. His face was lined and sagging and his eyes appeared to be glued shut. Stepping around the table, the man hobbled forward until he was right in front of them.
"So, you have arrived. Welcome to the Digital World."
Daisuke gave them all a tired smile from behind the man. Ken watched his boyfriend in surprise. It was rare that Daisuke ever looked as lost and tired as he did now.
"They're memories have been wiped completely. They don't remember a thing." The maroon haired boy said to Gennai, turning his head away from the group. "I'd like to check up on Veemon if it's alright with you."
Gennai nodded, and before anyone could speak Daisuke had fled from the room.
"Now then, you all must be very confused. Daisuke isn't the best at explaining things. Sit down and I'll make you some tea." Gennai turned and hobbled over to the stove, waving one hand haphazardly at a cupboard near the far end of the room. "There are cushions in the cupboard you can sit on."

Daisuke stormed through the corridors in frustration. Why did everything have to be so difficult?! Why couldn't they just remember already! It had taken four fucking years for them to find the right world, and they STILL didn't know if the rest of the Chosen Children's memories could be revived!
Daisuke's scowl deepened. I'm not even going to think about that. He told himself firmly. Gennai will come up with something, they'll remember and everything will go back to the way it was.
The boy stopped at the sight of a familiar pair of double doors. The doors led into the "Basement", the main engineering area of the base. It was always loud and busy, and today was no exception; Daisuke could hear raised voices over the sounds of heavy metal objects being moved and machinery being operated.
Sighing, Daisuke entered the Basement. The opening doors led onto a raised platform, quite a ways above the floor. A flight of metal wire stairs wound down to the floor where large pieces of equipment where being tested and worked on. At a glance Daisuke quickly caught the flash of blue that meant his partner was there. It appeared he and Tentomon where attempting to stop Agumon and Gatsumon from killing each other. Daisuke had warned Gennai that those two would need to work in separate areas if they ever wanted to end their loud arguments.

Footnotes:
[1] - Come on, move people!
A/N: Yes! My report it is FINISHED! Free at last! However, vacation is coming up so I'll be away all of next week. Florida beach, here I come! I hope you enjoyed this chapter, even though basically nothing happens. Oh well.
I also got a Japanese-English Dictionary, meaning I'm going to be putting in as much Japanese in here as I can - Even though I hardly know any Japanese grammar. If anyone knows Japanese and wants to correct me, go right ahead! I also got an I Ching set, so I'm going to try to fit that in next time as well. Ja ne!
