A/N: Okay, I caved. I don't have five reviews yet, but please review this fic! I need some feedback.
'Damn it's boring today' Taichi thought as he lay on his bed. 'There's nothing to do today, at all. Sometimes I wish BelialVamdemon would come back simply so I could have some excitement.' "Oh well, there's nothing I can do about it" he said, as he sat up and walked into the living room. 'Hopefully something will happen.' Just then, the phone rang, and Taichi walked over to answer it. "Hello?"
"Taichi, I'm glad I reached you. It's Koushiro. Did you have any contact with the digital world recently?"
"No, not that I remember. The last time any of us had contact with the digital world was when BelialVamdemon was destroyed."
"Well, that's not the case anymore. I just got an urgent message from Gennai. We're needed in the digital world right away. Azulongmon himself requests our presence."
"Azulongmon? It must be pretty major then. Do you want to contact the others?"
"I can't. I have to email Gennai back and tell him I got the message. He said that the mission we're needed for may take a couple days, so remind everyone to pack a change of clothes or two."
"Say what? What are you getting at?"
"Well, since I'm going to be busy letting Gennai know I got the message, you will contact everyone and tell them the news. That and my mother won't let me make a call all the way to America to get in contact with Mimi."
"Fine, I guess. So when will we be leaving for the digital world?"
"Tomorrow, actually. Azulongmon told us to be fully prepared and to be ready to accommodate guests upon our return to the real world. What that means, though, I have no clue."
"What? You mean the great genius, Koushiro Izumi, has no clue about something that relates to the digital world?"
"Don't mock me, Taichi! I'm just relaying a message. See if you can contact everyone."
"Fine, I'll start now. See you tomorrow in the park Koushiro." With that, Taichi hung up, and began to call the rest of the digidestined. With the exception of Mimi, who happened to be asleep at the moment, all of the digidestined agreed to meet in the park so they could go to the digital world and find out what Azulongmon wanted.

The next day…
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Taichi, Hikari, and Takeru stood in the middle of the park waiting for the others to arrive. Hikari had her laptop open so Mimi could travel through the digital world, and the others were due any minute. Taichi looked especially bored, while Hikari and Takeru looked excited. "I wonder what Azulongmon wants us to do" Takeru said.
"Knowing the digital world, he probably wants us to do something incredibly difficult. That doesn't mean I won't enjoy it though."
"That reminds me Tai, why aren't you excited about seeing Agumon again?" Kari asked.
"Oh, I'll be excited alright; I'm just getting bored of waiting for people to show up." As if on cue, Hikari's laptop flashed a bright white and Mimi fell out of the portal.
"Ouch, that really hurts if you don't know how to land properly. I guess I don't have much practice." As Mimi stood up, she noticed that there were only four of them gathered so far. "So where's everybody else?"
"Right here." Everybody turned to see who the voice belonged to and found it to be none other than Koushiro, who had everybody else with him, which included Daisuke, Ken, Miyako, Iori, Yamato, Sora, and Jyou. Jyou cleared his throat and began to speak.
"Maybe we should get going; we don't want to keep Azulongmon waiting."
"That's a good idea Jyou. Everybody ready?" Miyako asked as she looked around at nodding heads. "Good, then let's go! Digiport open!" The screen of the computer glowed and all twelve digidestined traveled to the digital world.
As the glow in the digital world subsided, the kids saw that they were indeed in the digital world, and right in front of Azulongmon's temple. As they walked up the stairs, their digimon and Gennai greeted them at the top, as well as Azulongmon. After all the hellos were said, Azulongmon cleared his throat to get their attention.
"Welcome, digidestined. I presume you have gotten the message that you have a mission?" After several nods, he continued. "Very well, then. You are going to be going to the Northern Quadrant. I should let you know, there are other digital worlds, and other real worlds. One of each for each quadrant. There are four quadrants. The Eastern Quadrant, which you are in now, is ruled by me. I am its Sovereign. The Southern Quadrant is ruled by Zhuqiaomon, and the Western Quadrant is ruled by Baihumon. The quadrant you are going to, the Northern Quadrant, is ruled by Ebonwumon. The chosen of the Southern and Western Quadrants have already defended their worlds successfully, and are still continuing with the reconstruction. The chosen for the Northern Quadrant, however, have not yet been needed."
Koushiro took this moment to ask some questions. "Why are the chosen in the Northern digital world if they haven't been needed yet? How many are there, and why do they need our help?" Azulongmon shook his head.
"The chosen are there because Ebonwumon is a very cautious digimon. He did not want to take the chance of entrusting his digital world to novices, and so opted to train his chosen himself. They have been in their digital world for ten years now." At this, he got a look of shock from all of the digidestined.
Jyou spoke first. "But, how can that be? The oldest of us have only known the digital world for five years!"
"That may be, but you were not the first chosen to be selected. As to answer the rest of Koushiro's questions, there are eight of them. Well, there were eight. Adam Ignas, Sara Valencia, Laura Xavier, Cyrus MacArthur, Iziren Okhamefe, Tomoko Hasubara, Jeffrey Lawrence, and James Smith were their names. However, only the first five remain." Azulongmon saw the puzzled looks on their faces, and decided to elaborate. "Each of the Northern chosen was trained in a specific element, the element that they are innately tuned to. Adam was trained in the power and brute strength of Earth, Laura was trained in the swiftness and agility of Wind, Sara was trained in the tranquility and buoyancy of Water, Cyrus was trained in the fierceness and determination of Fire, Iziren was trained in the spontaneity and accuracy of Thunder, Tomoko was trained in the warmth and kindness of Light, Jeffrey was trained in the cold and loneliness of Darkness, and James was trained in the polarizations and magnetism of Gravity. The reason they need our help is because only Earth, Wind, Water, Fire, and Thunder remain. I do not know what has become of Light and Darkness. Gravity has betrayed the others, and is on a rampage through the digital world, conquering as much as he can." With these words, Ken shuddered at the thought and begged the awful memories of his time as the Digimon Emperor to vanish. "The reason they need help, is because they cannot stop the forces of Gravity on their own, and both myself and Ebonwumon believe that something is controlling Gravity, much like the Dark Spores and Devimon's Black Gears. It is with this knowledge that I send you to the Northern Quadrant. Ebonwumon's chosen should be waiting for you on the other side. Go through the door behind me, and you will automatically be there.
The digidestined nodded to each other in affirmation, and walked through the door as a group, ready to face whatever lay ahead, and free Gravity of his mind control.
Okay, was this any good? Please be nice, this is the first fic I have ever written. Please R&R, people!
