Revised on: 9/11/03
Finally! After re-editing, proof-reading, and the helpful comments from Jbramx2 and Glay. I gain enough confidence to post my fan fiction, "A Digital Revolution." here. I didn't know that there were a couple of Digimon/ Utena fan fictions here and I really enjoyed them. ^_^ I'm very proud of this Utena/ Digimon fan fiction series because it took me about 3 to 4 months to write thirty chapters in three sagas. To be honest, when I wrote the early chapters, I haven't seen the Utena anime. So after completing this fan fiction, I re-edited some things to make perfect sense for you readers out there. Hopefully I will get a lot of reviews from this fan fiction series. I also have a soundtrack list for this fan fiction series and is mostly music from the Utena anime. I was inspired by the opening song, "Rinbu Revolution" sung by Okui Masami.
Glay, your wonderful artwork over at Reality Check Oekaki Board as inspired me to write this fan fiction. Thank you so much for reading it. Jbramx2, I'm really glad that your comments has encouraged me to write the sequel to this brilliant fan fiction series. Dedicated to my wonderful friends over at Fruit Patch. Thanks guys! ^_^
The setting is modern meets medieval, with the palaces and modern technology. So you might get really confused about it. ^^; Plus I when I wrote this chapter, I haven't seen the Utena anime. I highly suggest that you read my author's notes and the preview, so you get a head's up of the plot and the character cast:
-Taichi-chan
Let's live our lives heroically,
let's live them with style.
Even if the two of us
are ever torn apart . . .
. . . take my revolution
In the sunlit garden,
we both joined our our hands.
Drawing close for comfort,
we both swore:
Never again would
we ever fall in love.
I see that photo of us smiling,
standing cheek to cheek.
I look at it and a bit of
loneliness starts to fill me
Even if I dream, even if I cry,
even if I get hurt . . .
. . . reality keeps
on coming recklessly.
I wanna find out where I am,
the value of being me.
Gonna take who
I've been up till now . . .
. . . and find the strength
to throw it all away.
Strip down to nothing at all.
Become like a rose petal
blowing free!
Even if the two of us
are ever torn apart . . .
. . . I swear that I
will change the world
- Rinbu Revolution (sung by: Okui Masami)
Introduction:
Once upon a time, in a modern, peaceful valley. There were two separated kingdoms. The kingdom on the left was ruled by the rose princess. The one on the right was ruled by a young prince named Sam Ichijouji. After the battle of the digital revolution, the young prince had passed away and his brother Ken to was next to the throne. In the kingdom of the rose princess, young Yolei Inoue was the next princess in line since her older sister was married and moved away. The prince and the princess do not know each other. The princess is engaged to a young rich boy named Michael, she does not want to marry him because of his wealth. She will only love someone who is kind and caring. Little that they know, that the two kingdoms become into one if the prince and the princess are destined to fall in love at first sight. Will they ever meet each other?
Chapter 1: The Story Begins
Yolei Inoue was hurrying to get to the town square. She wanted to buy some books in the bookstore. On her way, she complained. Yolei was dressed in a school uniform with lime green pleated skirt, puffed sleeves and the sailor collar was also lime green.
"I hate walking, I wish I had a car or something, I wish I can drive!" Yolei whined.
She accidentally tripped on a rock and land flat on her face. Yolei felt embarrassed that a girl like herself shouldn't be so downright clumsy.
"OUCH! That hurt! I hate this, now what?" she moaned.
As Yolei got up and dusted her uniform, she heard the noise of galloping close by.
Suddenly, a white magnificent horse was heading in the same direction. The horse halted and young boy with midnight blue hair, indigo eyes with a handsome face got off . He was wearing a long white long sleeve shirt, russet-colored rider pants, and black boots. He gaze upon Yolei's dazed expression. She began to blush when she tried to talk to him. Instead, she began to shutter. It was though that the young lavender-haired girl felt this warmth towards him.
"Are you alright, miss?" asked the boy.
"I-I-I -am. What is your name?" asked Yolei.
"My name is Ken, and you are?"
"Yolei. I'm sorry that I um--gah-- I need to go to the bookstore. I need get there faster. Perhaps, you could help me?"
"Sure! I can get you there, come with me."
"Thank you! Oh thank you so much!!"
So, Ken and Yolei rode on horseback onwards to town square. Yolei felt that the young gentlemen came to her rescue even though she tripped and injured herself.
At the town square, the crowds were hectic and semi-crowed when the two arrived. Over at the bookstore, Yolei got the books that she needed. Ken was over the jewelry store, he saw a jewel-encrusted rose locket that played a harmonious tone when its opened.
"You are such a charming girl, and I want to give you something." said Ken.
He gave Yolei the rose locket. She was so speechless, that when she opened the locket, a charming melody played. It made her even blush even more.
"Ken you're the first boy I have ever met who actually given me something. You see, I come from a very rich family, and most boys care about is their money." said Yolei.
"Thank you, as for my family, I live in other side of the kingdom, I hardly ever get outside."
"That's depressing."
The two went to the flower shop. Ken pointed at a beautiful bouquet of roses that were displayed in the front window.
"See those flowers in the shop? Roses are sign of love and beauty. I hope that our relationship will be beautiful. Just like those roses." said Ken.
"That is so wonderful. You're like a poet and you're sympathetic about every living thing."
"Yolei, I must go, I have a long way to get home. Do you want me to take you home first?"
"That's okay, you've done too much, I'll just wait until my friends get here. I promised them that I'll be waiting by the bookstore."
"Oh okay, goodbye". Then Ken kissed the hand. The daring lad got on his horse and galloped away.
Yolei was starry-eyed and said, "Oh my! That's the one boy I should marry! He's so cute, kind and everything!! I wished that Ken was a prince, then I would marry him, and we would live happily ever after like all fairy tale stories end!"
A red limo came in front of the bookstore. The window opened, It was Sora, Mimi and Kari.
"Your highness, we need to get going! Our first day of school starts tomorrow!" stated Sora.
"I thought we came to town square so we can shop and get our hair done." said Mimi.
"We are going to do that Mimi but Yolei had to get her books first. Do you want to go shopping now?" asked Kari.
"Okay!" said Yolei.
While the girls shopped at a nearby dress store, Yolei talked to Kari. Mimi and Sora were trying on wondrous ball gowns in the dressing room.
"Kari? Do you ever have a boy to like you because you're wealthy? Or because of your personality?"
" I got two boys giving me stuff. TK is very well-mannered and lives in this kingdom and there's Davis who's so… juvenile."
"Davis doesn't know when to give up." sighed Yolei.
"So who's the guy, Yolei?" asked Kari.
" Well, his name is Ken, he's very poetic, and he gave this locket!" said Yolei while she showed Kari the locket that play a charming tune. Kari was pleased by the wonderful song it played.
"Oooh! I can see why you're blushing all the time," said Mimi. "I do the same thing around Matt, he's one of the prince's consuls."
"Matt's my crush!" shouted Sora while she was carrying her shopping bags, "But, I still have feelings for Tai."
"You should go with Tai if still have feelings for him." said Kari.
"I don't know." said Sora. "Let's get back to the palace, I'm getting tired."
"Okay, let's go." said Yolei.
Meanwhile, Ken went home to his palace. He was indeed the prince of his kingdom. Joe Kido was his adviser who keeps him on schedule.
"Sir, you're late for dinner, hurry!" said Joe.
"I'm sorry Joe, but I met this wonderful girl named Yolei."
"That's nothing, hurry!!"
Ken was fully dressed in his white uniform and his crown. He sat down on a chair in the dinning hall. His consuls Tai, Matt and Izzy sat down too. They too were also well-dressed.
"So how was you day, sir?" asked Izzy.
"I told Joe, I have met the most beautiful girl."
"What does she look like?" asked Matt.
"Well, she had on glasses, and lavender-colored hair. She was also wearing a school uniform." said Ken.
"Ken, you probably met a really smart girl from that school that you're going to pretty soon." said Tai while he ate dinner.
Izzy was analyzing Ken's description of the girl. Then a thought came up to his mind.
"Tai, Matt, can I speak to you for a moment?"
Tai and Matt left the table to talk to Izzy. Ken just fantasizing about his "dream" girl.
The boys were outside of the dinning hall talking.
"Ken was talking about Princess Yolei, the rose princess from the other kingdom. Maybe, he didn't observe her in her royal attire." said Izzy.
"Well, Ken's got a crush. Speaking about crushes, Kari's having some problems with Davis and your brother." said Tai.
"Fighting over a girl, that's so typical, they should just duel." said Matt.
"Dueling is not going to help in this serious situation." said Izzy.
In his chambers, Ken starts to think about Yolei, he started to write poems.
As for Yolei, she was sleeping in her bedroom, clinging to the locket that Ken gave her.

Missing truth & forever
Kissing love & true your heart
Embrace me with your arms so true
The key to open up tomorrow is reality.
I want to keep destroying lies...
As long as all we're doing is talking,
you won't ever see anything at all.
The guy I want to know is annoying,
he wants me to misunderstand him.
Excuses really suit adults
who hang on to old stories.
Unchosen angels
have no need for wings.
Missing truth & forever
Kissing love & true your heart
I'll like the me of tomorrow.
At least I believe so; I want to believe,
I want to keep hating lies.
