Data-Destined
By The Dark Geek of the Sith
Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon and am not making any money off of this
story. Anyone who is not in the series, unless otherwise mentioned, belongs
to me.
Author's notes: I've read lots of stories where the digidestined are turned
into digimon. From actually turning into their digimon, to merging with
their digimon, to being turned into a completely new species, to actually
being digimon. My story is a bit of a cross between the third and fourth of
these with a bit of a new twist.
I am still trying to decide if it will have any romance in it, but there
will definitely be a lot of friendship stuff.
If you want me to add any romance e-mail me or review, and I'll consider
it. However, I not write anything over a PG-13 rating, and I will not write
any yaoi or yuri. Sorry.
There will be absolutely NO bashing of any characters.
I will be using the Japanese version of digivolving.
rookie = child
champion = adult
ultimate = perfect
mega = ultimate
You may notice a few of the attacks are different, I will be using the
American and Japanese names as I see fit.
And lastly, I will be using the Japanese term for the Digieggs (the ones
used to armor-digivolve), Digimentals.
Everything else about it is the same as the American version. This story
takes place about 4 years after the Malomyotismon incident. So all the
younger Digidestined would be around their Sophomore/Junior year of High
school (except Cody). And now, on with the story.

Chapter 1: The Picnic
*At Tai's apartment*
"Where are they!?" A voice echoed through the trashed room. It could be said that this apartment was a little messy, but then it also could be said that the sun was a little bright or that a volcano was a little warm. Venturing into the bedroom we see the owner of the residence franticly searching through a mountain of dirty clothes.
"Hey Tai," Agumon yells as he sticks his head into the room, "Have you found your goggles yet." He got out right before being hit in the head with an old shirt
Davis had given Tai his goggles back (after buying another pair for himself) shortly after he was appointed the representative of the Digital world. Tai rarely ever wore them anymore, but he always had them close. "Not yet, help me look." he said as he felt around through the swamp of clothes. "This is why I always used to keep them on my head."
"Tai, are you ready?" Kari called from the front door. She was standing by Tai's suitcase.
"Almost." The voice answered.
"What are you guys looking for anyway?"
"His Goggles." Agumon said before Tai could attempt a better excuse.
Kari sighed. "I still don't see why you bring those to the meetings. It's not like you can wair them during the meeting."
"Hey aren't those his goggles on the TV?" asked Gatomon from on top of the suitcase.
"WHAT!?" Tai exclaims as he looks up at the TV. He then promptly facefaults. "it was there the whole time!?"
"No wonder you couldn't find them, they were hidden in plain sight." Kari chuckled as she handed them to Tai."
"Very funny." Tai said as he swiped the goggles from his sister's hand. "And they're for good luck."
"Are they good luck for getting to our plane on time?" asked Ken from the doorway. He was going with Tai to the UN meeting to explain to them more about the digital world. Ken was one of the world' top digimon researchers (He's second only to Izzy when it comes to wanting info on the digital world). "Because we have twenty minutes before it leaves."
"Oops. ByeKari,Thanksforyourhelp." The hurricane named Tai said as he dashed through the door, with Agumon following.
"See ya Kari." Ken managed to get out as he ran down the hall with Tai. "See ya in about two weeks guys!" Kari called after them. ***
"So what kind of food should we get for the picnic?" TK asked as he looked through the store.
"I was thinking about getting hot dogs. I've Tried them before and they're good." Davis said as he picked up a package. Although they were still competing for Kari, the two had become best friends, so the rivalry was a friendlier one.
"Weren't you complaining later that they repeated on you."
"Yeah, but they were still pretty good for American food."
"Yeah, and I hear Americans will eat anything." TK commented as he looked at the hotdogs carefully."
"Yeah, but so will us digimon." quipped Veemon, to which Patamon nodded.
"Really, I heard that it was the other way around. I heard Americans won't eat anything except hamburgers, hot dogs, and chicken." Davis said as he scratched his head.
"How could they survive like that?" Asked Patamon, who seemed horrified by that thought.
"Sounds horrible to me." Veemon agreed. (A/N: Okay, that's enough of that) TK shrugged.
"Well, take them anyway. It's not like there won't be other food there."
"Okay. By the way, do you know where we're going?" Davis asked offhandedly.
"I have no Idea. Yolei found it, and she's keeping it some big secret."
"That usually means she's up to something." Patamon added.
"Well, we'll find out when we get there." he said as he paid the cashier. ***
*Later that day, in the Digital World*
"All right everyone, this way." An enthusiastic Yolei said as the digidestineds and their respective digimon hiked up the side of one of the Digital World's many mountains. Davis and TK were walking next to Kari, the three humans and their digimon along with Hawkmon were talking and laughing amongst themselves. Izzy, who came along because he needed a break, was working on something on his laptop by holding it up with one hand and typing with the other (A/N I've actually done this before). Oddly enough, he seemed to be enjoying himself. Joe, who was on spring break from Med. School, walked quietly behind them. He was 'invited' to come along by Yolei and Mimi, after they found out about his vacation from school. He was actually glad for the change of pace provided by the outing. Walking beside Joe, his faithful companion Gomamon walked along chatting with Tentomon about 'workaholic partners'. Mimi, who had started off talking to Joe, had made her way up to Yolie and the two were chatting at a mile a minute.
Yolei was a bit upset that everyone couldn't be there. Tai and Ken were at their meeting and couldn't make it, Matt was busy with a project for his college, Sora was working at her parents' store while they were visiting relatives, and Cody was visiting some of his relatives. Still she was determined to have a good time with everyone.
"How much further?" Davis finally asked after about an hour of walking.
"It's right up there." Yolei said as she pointed further up the path. The area she pointed to appeared to be a flat area at the top of what appeared to be a cliff. The area behind it appeared to be a foresty area, however there was a fairly large clearing near the edge, which is where they assumed they would be stopping. the road went right by the clearing along the edge of the forest and kept going on down the mountain to the other side.
"Not bad. How did you find this spot?" TK asked after they arrived, as they looked at the view they had from the spot.
"Hm, Oh, I spotted it last week when I went flying with Aquilimon. That's how I got the Idea for the picnic." Yolie said as she looked up from setting up the blanket.
"Speaking of Flying, why didn't we just fly here?" Joe wheezed from his spot on the ground.
"I thought you guys would enjoy the hike." Yolei shrugged.
"Oh, yeah, fun." Joe said sarcastically as he plopped onto his back.
In the meantime Davis had made his way over to Izzy, and was looking over his shoulder. "Whatcha working on over here Izzy?"
"Huh, oh I'm just scanning the area for any digimon." He said with a shrug. "I don't know about you, but I don't want to be caught by surprise by any wild digimon. Plus, I want to test out my long range digi-scanner."
"Somehow, I think that the second one is the main reason." Davis commented dryly.
"You know, You're as bad as Tai."
"So, does it work?" Davis asked trying to avoid an argument.
"Yeah, so far." Izzy said as he looked back to his laptop. "Let's see... there is a herd of mammothmon down the cliff, but they're usually pretty passive, so we don't have to worry about them... there are a swarm of snimon off a ways, past the mammothmon, but they're too far away to be a problem. And..." He stopped suddenly as something on the radar blipped before disappearing "That was odd."
"What was?"
"Something appeared on the scanner and then disappeared again. Probably just a glitch." he said waving it off.
"Maybe it was a teleporting digimon." Davis suggested.
"Could be, either way it still needs some work." Izzy said as he checked the program again.
"Hey Davis, Come help us with the food." Mimi called from where they had set up a small fire for cooking the food. "You're the best cook here."
"Hang on." He called back. "Good luck with that program Iz." ***
An hour later, the digimon were off playing hide and seek in the forest, while their partners were relaxing in the clearing near the cliff. At the moment, most of them were huddled around Izzy and his computer, Izzy having finished with his scanner and was now relaxing in the traditional computer-geek fashion. Playing computer games.
"Heads up Izzy!
"Go for the power-up!"
"Klaxon ship coming in of the starboard bow."
"Fire!"
"Guys! Will you be quiet so I can-" An explosion is heard from the game. "Not again."
Meanwhile, a little under a mile off from the cliff's edge, a heard of mammothmon was suddenly engulfed by a strange purple mist. As the mist cleared, the digimon had varying degrees of fear written on their faces. A minute later, an explosion was heard from right behind the heard, Followed by another. Startled, the digimon began to run away from the spots as two more went off. The heard began running blindly away from the source of the explosions.
A gray-cloaked figure hovered in place right behind where the explosions came from, "That should do it." He chuckled as he disappeared in a flash of light. ***
"Tentomon stop cheating!" Yelled Gomamon yelled up into the treetops. "How am I supposed to find you when I can't even climb?"
"You shoulda mentioned that when the game started." Tentomon's voice mocked from up in the trees.
"Patamon, can you help me look?" Gomamon called.
Patamon was staring off in the direction that their partners were in with a worried expression on his face. "Something's not right..."
"Huh?" Gomamon asked curiously. "What'd ya say?"
"Guys, something's wrong!" Patamon said with a scared look in his eyes.
"Oh no, I'm not falling for that old trick." Tentomon called down. "Guys!" Gatomon called as she appeared. "Patamon do you feel that?" She asked in an alarmed voice,
"The darkness?"
"That's it." She nodded nervously
"Would someone tell me what's going on?" Gomamon asked in an annoyed tone. "There's a dark presence around," Patamon stated "and... it's gone!" Gatomon and Patamon worriedly looked around.
"Are you sure you didn't imagine it?" Gomamon asked.
"Both of us?" Gatomon countered.
Suddenly, the ground started shaking and a rumbling was heard in the distance.
"What's going on?" Gomamon asked as he tried to keep his balance.
"Quick, the other's might be in trouble!" Gatomon shouted as she ran towards the area they left their partners in, as Patamon flew after her.
"Hey, wait up! I can only run so fast!" Gomamon said as he ran after them.
"This had better not be a trick." Stated Tentomon as he flew after his friends. ***
Meanwhile, the Digidestined were disrupted from their activities when TK and Kari's heads suddenly snapped up.
"What's up guys?" Asked Yolie.
"There's a dark presence around!" TK said as he looked around, unconsciously mirroring Patamon's words.
"What, now?!" Davis asked in a worried tone.
"I'll see if I can find it." Izzy said as he opened a new window on his laptop and began typing and clicking rapidly.
"It's gone now." Kari breathed in relief after a few tense seconds.
"Did you get it Izzy?" TK asked
"I just missed hi-" Suddenly the ground started shaking. A cloud of dust was seen heading towards the bottom of the cliff. Izzy quickly turned back to his computer "There's a herd of mamothmon stampeding this way!" He exclaimed after a few seconds. "We gotta get out of here!"
"Yeah but they're all down there." Said Mimi. "What do we have to worry about?" Izzy still looked panicked. "You don't understand! They're causing large seismic tremors throughout the whole area! If we don't get out of here we'll be caught in-"
Suddenly they heard a cracking sound as the side of the cliff began breaking apart. The digidestined Screamed as they began to fall with it. ***
Patamon and Gatomon, who were almost to the clearing, heard the screaming and suddenly started glowing as they felt the need to protect their partner.
Gatomon digivolve to... Angewoman.
Patamon warp digivolve to... Magnangemon. (A/N: I don't know how others use it, but I use warp digivolving to skip levels instead having them digivolve twice)
The angelic duo raced toward the cliff. As they arrived, there were several bright flashes from the bottom of the cliff. Magnangemon and Angewomon flew looking over the cliff in shock, as a bunch of brightly colored data shot into the sky, on it's way to Primary Village.
"What in the Wo-" Magnangemon began before he noticed that he was breaking up into data as well.
"What's happening!?" Angewoman asked terrified, right before she completely dissolved into data. A mile away, the grey-clad stranger watched as the digimons' data flew off into the distance. "Mission accomplished." He said smugly before teleporting away. To be Continued.
