Hello and welcome to another chapter! Sorry they are so extended out, but school, and Honk practice both official and at home keeps me pretty busy. In fact right now I'm singing along with it as I write, so I apologize if there are some mistakes. Mainly because I'm doing two things at once. Please read and review!

Disclaimer: I don't own digimon in any way, except for the plot and the original digidestined characters, so no stealing!

Chapter Ten

"The past is about to repeat itself" Duncan, Highlander

Gennai was waiting for the chosen as soon as they all fell through the gate into a pile on the ground. As soon as they straightened up, he smiled slightly. "Greetings chosen, I'm glad you could come at such short notice."

"What is this news you were going to tell us Gennai?" Daisuke asked.

The younger man looked over at the group. "It appears Taichi is missing, someone is going to have to tell him later on then, because this can't wait. Follow me children!"

They all followed behind Gennai in silence too curious on what he was going to tell them. In no time they were at the lake edge, stepping in he summoned the steps as the group walked down in single file to Gennai's house.

As they entered and sat around a table as Gennai walked over to a self and pulled out a very thick book. He stood there running his fingers over the old leather-bound cover, then lifted it to see the yellowed pages with writing.

"I don't think I've seen that book before Gennai, where did you find it?" Koushiro asked.

"It is from a very long time ago, along with its documents, my young friend." Gennai said in response turning to the group. "You see it's..."

"Is it some kind of special new power your going to give us, right Gennai?" Daisuke interrupted.

"Daisuke be polite." Miyako scolded hitting the goggle-headed kid in the head from behind.

"Hey watch it! I was only curious!"

"You need to show more respect, even if this old man is now a super hunk!" Miyako said hearts coming to her eyes.

"Hey Ken, you might be careful it appears you have competition." Daisuke said putting his hand on his friends shoulder, causing the boy to blush.

The hearts quickly died away as Miyako looked over at Ken. "Are you kidding me nothing could replace my little Kee..." She paused as the others now were looking over at her.

A deeper blush showed up on Ken's cheeks along with Miyako's now as Daisuke burst out laughing. "Daisuke, why I outta....." The purple haired girl began.

"Outta do what, sick your little Kenny on me?" Daisuke said tears coming to his eyes from laughing so hard.

"That's it let me at him!" Miyako shouted out.

"Will you two can it for now!" Takeru's voice rang out. The two were frozen with Miyako in the position about to strangle Daisuke, and the two moved farther apart. "That's better, go ahead Gennai."

"Does this always happen?" Yamato whispered to Hikari.

"Everyday, for some odd reason those two are always arguing, and Takeru usually is the one to break them up." She answered squeezing her boyfriends hand gently.

Gennai breathed out a long sigh before flipping a few pages of the book carefully. "First I should probably tell you all of what is about to happen. Things from the past are already rising, stronger then anything you have ever seen before."

"What could be stronger then what we haven't faced?" Hikari asked, as the others nodded in agreement.

"It has been prophesied from the very begining. If the majority of you remember back in your begining adventures, I told you a story."

"Yes, you mentioned something briefly about the very first chosen." Koushiro muttered thinking.

"Most of us thought it was just some myth." Yamato added, while the newer chosen looked slightly confused.

"I wasn't lying, there were five of them, the first humans to come into our world. It was so long ago, that it was even before my time, this book I have here is the only account left of them, and their adventures."

"What happened to everything else?" Koushiro asked.

"We believe that the majority of it was burned by one of the first, but it is just a theory."

"If the first died so long ago, why do we have to know about them?" Daisuke asked.

"Because the past is about to repeat itself." Gennai commented. "The first's adventure was never over......"

"Hold up Gennai I think you better start at the begining." Yamato stated.

"Right." Gennnai said turning another page, the others listening carefully as Gennai read aloud the words written. "Our world was peaceful and full of life, nothing exciting, then it happened. One day a bright beacon flew across our sky and crashed to the ground, as a strange creature appeared......."

************

She looked around the area, she didn't know where she was as she scanned the horizon. She didn't remember it being so bright, it was stormy not too long ago. Then again where was she? Her sore bare feet felt the grass and dirt underneath her.

Pulling down her smock, she began walking through the tall grass, she had to keep moving, she remembered, then if there were captors she at least was escaping. The last thing she remembered was running through the road, then the wind and a bolt of lighting coming straight at her.

Was this death? If so, then why did it seem so calm?

If this was the fields, she didn't belong here, she was not worthy of such a privilage. A light breeze then wafted through her tangled hair, as she stopped feeling something in her hand. Looking at it she saw a strange looking thing that she was holding on to, her instinct was to throw it, and did so.

It didn't go far though as it glowed and came flying back at her with some force. It then began shaking, as something shot out. Looking over the girl saw this egg lying at her feet. On some impulse she picked it up, as it felt warm to the touch, and began walking again.

Not knowing how long she had been traveling she came to a village, outside of it a strange creature was waiting for her. "About time you came child, I was getting worried my vision was wrong."

"What are you talking about, isn't this death?" She asked now holding a little fox creature in her arms as it squirmed.

"Death? No child, you have been blessed by being transported here, and I'm going to be training....." Seeing the girl's confused expression the creature walked over and took the girls arm and led her to a hut. "Don't worry all will be explained."

The wind blew a little harder as she walked in, wishing she knew what was going on.

"So it began, it stayed that way for a long time to come, this strange creature soon to be known as human, being trained by one of our digimon the gift. We thought she was the only one till another flash came across the sky."

It was cold, very cold, as snow flew around him, he knew that it was a bad idea not to take something warmer, but snow was unexpected. He should have listened to his father, and not get distracted, but now he was hopelessly lost.

Confused he tried to search through the snow, but he could barely see at all, as another sharp wind blasted him to the ground. Slowly standing he began taking small steps to at least keep moving, but the storm seemed endless.

He then stopped feeling something in his hand, and as the snow blew around him he brought the thing to his face. It was strange looking object, it began to glow, then grew warmer, as the light shot out knocking him to the ground.

Moving the snow from his eyes he looked at the egg in his lap, as he started shivering. He had a feeling he was going to die, the only heir to the empire about to die right then and there.

As the snow began to bury him, something flashed in front of his eyes, looking around he saw nothing, as his eyelids grew heavy. 'I wish I could have told my father, goodbye' He thought.

Suddenly voices could be heard, though they were faint as two figures stood over him.

"Is this the boy?" The first said.

"Yes it is, I had a vision about him. Pick the boy up, and be careful of the egg. We have to get back before the storm gets worse." A second muttered sounding female.

"Right."

He then slowly fainted, as he was picked up.

Warmth filled him as the boy openned his eyes, meeting green ones. "About time you moved, my partner and I were thinking that you would never survive." A girl commented as the boy slowly sat up. "Easy, you were out for a few days."

"What is going on? What happened to me."

"Don't worry, I'll tell you all of it soon. First though, the name is Mikira."

"Prince Akira, the emporer's son." The boy muttered as he looked around the hut.

"Well you might as well forget that title, however strange it sounds, because I know for a fact you won't be going home."

"Huh?" He asked suprised.

"Then there was two, it didn't seem important that the humans kept showing up, it was about time that our world was discovered, a pity that they could never go home though. The devices that they carried are things to investigate as a possibility, not too long later, another child appeared."

He quickly shook his head sending water flying around everywhere. Looking down he saw the creek he had fallen into, remembering being no where near one. His eyes wandered around to see he was also in a forest.

Did he run in here when the storm hit? The boy wasn't sure, as he slowly moved out of the creek, the sun shining down on his skin drying him. The only memory he could sprout out was a bright flash of light.

Thinking he began walking through the tall trees of the forest. All of the trees seemed lush and full of life, as he walked along the trail, making his way passed bushes and other things.

Slowly he came through the bushes, his eyes lighted upon a clearing, with a hut in the middle of it. Taking a deep breath hoping that the people here were not dangerous, made his way over.

As he got closer he could see a teen his age carrying a small pile of wood to set down.

"Akira it's the teen Mikira mentioned!" A voice shouted out.

Looking around, the boy couldn't see where the voice came from. He met the brown eyes of the teen standing there, and followed the gaze to a orange creature nearby.

"It appears so Agumon." Akira commented.

'Wait a minute, a orange monster' The boy thought his eyes widening in fear, slowly he backed away, holding up his hands in defense.

"Hold on, it's okay he is friendly." Akira began, but the boy was already moving away.

Suddenly he bumped into something, and slowly turning he met a pair of blue eyes, from a tall fox. He then screamed out and almost starting running, when he was hit in the head, by a piece of wood and fell to the ground.

"You didn't have to do that." Akira muttered to the fox, as he began dragging the boy to the hut.

"What would you rather have him running around, till he went mad?" The fox commented, smiling.

Now three, it is getting curious about the humans popping up everywhere, there still hasn't been a chance to see the objects yet, but now weapons that have been hidden are showing up and chooses these children to weild them. It can only mean something is coming, our hope is that we are wrong. Another child has shown up so it can only mean our suspicions could be right.

Falling, that was all he could remember, as he crashed into a tree, and then tumbled gently down to the ground, leaves and branches coming with him. In one hand was the ring for his beloved, and the other a new object.

Temporaly forgetting his main objective, he studied the object, as it reacted to him, by glowing, then a light shot out of the screen onto the ground, shaping into a egg. Facinated by it he touched the edge of it with a finger.

Then pausing, remembering what he was planning on doing, pulled the leaves and twigs out of his hair, though still looking over at the egg.

"Hey over here!" A voice shouted catching his attention, as he saw two teen boys with strange creatures coming towards him.

"Akira I thought you said it was going to be on the eastern side!" One of them shouted.

"Hey, I didn't know where the guy was going to fall at, personally I thought he was going to be dead when we found him anyway."

"Sometimes I wonder about you."

"Relax Danny, you see he is just fine."

"Apparently you don't have to suffer through Mikira's wrath if everything doesn't go right."

The teen looked at the two, and noticed how strange their garmets were. As they approached he slowly stood up with the egg under one arm. "May I ask you boys where we are, by any chance, because I have an important errand to run."

Akira and Danny looked at each other. "I hope it wasn't very important." Akira started.

"Why do you say that?"

"Because you will not be able to finish it. Common, you are owed an explaination." Danny muttered.

He then followed the two putting the ring in his pocket, not being able to finish his errand, surely they were kidding.

It is believed now our world is coming to an end, otherwise these humans wouldn't keep coming up, and our world seems to be no longer peaceful, but a calm, a deadly calm. I just hope this last human will not start what we fear is coming.

She quickly looked around, what had happened, one minute she was getting ready to go to the ball, but now....

Slowly she stood up her long brown braid dripping over her shoulder. Pushing it over an object caught her eye. Looking at her it her eyes widened, it was the thing she saw in a book. That wasn't possible, it was just a story.

To test a theory, she pushed a button on it causing it to glow, and out came an egg. It was real, all of the story she did read, but how?

On an instinct she began walking, and didn't have far to go as her eyes moved from two teens to a very tall, amazing tree. 'It's all true' She thought.

That was when a teen ran up to her, he had big brown hair, and was dressed differently. "Hi, I'm Akira." He said as he looked her in the eyes.

Shifting her egg she looked at Akira. "I'm Adara. Where are we?" She asked aloud, though secretly she seemed to know where they were.

"That is a very long story." Akira said smiling, as he took the girls hand and led her to where another girl sat. "This is Mikira." He muttered.

Adara nodded to Mikira sitting down, but being careful with her egg.

Mikira studied the girl, it seemed she was hiding something, but didn't mention it, while Akira began telling Adara what happened to her.

The brown-haired girl was right, she was here in the place she wanted to escape to. She had always felt like she didn't belong in her original home. She looked over at Akira, he was cute, very cute, she found herself attracted to him suddenly.

Soon two other boys joined them, known as Scott and Danny, and the girl knew something was about to happen now, it seemed they were linked this very day.

"Now it was complete, now with complete clarity I know now that the darkness is coming. The entire fate of this world is resting on these five children's shoulders, each from a different world, and lifestyle. Now with partners, while weilding weapons of mass destruction. The only hope is that they are prepared for what is coming next."

**************

Gennai looked over at the shocked faces of the chosen, as he shook his head slightly. He looked at most of the book, there were still several pages left to be read. So much yet, so little.

"What happened to them?" Iori questioned.

"That is it, the stories of their lives before and after disappeared, or more to say their journals have gone missing. There is only a small account of them in this book, more of a information area, doesn't inform us of much. Just where the weapons are hidden, powers, digivolutions, theories of going home, and their deaths." Gennai muttered flipping through the book, "also details about them as well."

"Still what does this have to do with us?" Daisuke asked.

"Plain and simple the prophecy that the first followed still exists, it never stopped. At the end of the final battle, a new line was written."

"What was that line?" Koushiro asked.

Gennai suddenly looked very old for some reason as he reached the page he was looking for. "They will be reborn blank of the past, till the time comes when their memories will be restored, then it will be up to them to defeat the age old evil that threatened this world from the begining, once and for all, or fail trying. I believe the time is now, I've sensed it and that is why you are here."

"Is there anything we can do?" Takeru asked more to himself, then to the others.

For a moment Gennai looked like his normal self, as he quickly stood up and walked over to pull out a box. "Yes Takeru, there is a way. Find the first before the darkness comes and destroys them before they are fully restored."

"How do we do that?" Sora asked, looking strangely at the box. She then felt slightly useless, both worlds fates were not solidly on them, for once she felt left out. Then again, it wasn't always up to them, they were the stallers for the true darkness.

Gennai then slowly opened the box, revealing five orbs, different in color. "These will help you track them. By now the old weapons should be appearing, you can track them that way, when the orbs glow, it means that that the chosen has appeared." He then began handing the orbs out.

"I was going to give this orb to Taichi, but now you will hold it Daisuke. The leader of the first used it, and you will look for him." Gennai said.

Then he moved to Sora and Yamato, handing each the red orb to Sora. "You will hold on to this one, gaurd it well."

The blue orb went to Hikari, the green to Joe, and the purple one to Koushiro. "Watch for the glowing orb, pair off into teams, and work that way to find the first. I wish you all luck."

Slowly the group stood up and left Gennai's house, save for Koushiro. The teen walked over to Gennai, still holding the orb. "Gennai, may I by any chance borrow that book? You know just to read, and see if I could find out more about the first?" He asked.

Gennai hesitated for a second before handing the book to Koushiro. "Be careful with it, this is the last bit of information we have left of the first chosen."

Koushiro nodded. "Don't worry, I will be careful. Oh and Gennai, one last thing."

"What will that be?"

"Could you first translate this into Japanese, I don't have a digital dicitionary on my computer."

"Sure thing Koushiro." As Gennai began to work, he knew that time was running short.

Well that's it for this chapter! Please read and review!
