(Ok, next chap. What will the season 3 romances be? Jerato? Rukato? Ryuki? Junrya? *inserts Xellos face ^_^* Well, now that. is a secret. Anyways, Toei owns Digimon, not me. I only own Scott (myself) and Bakura, nothing more.)

In a dark, crystal area, the mysterious digimon from before appeared, he resembled a large, black knight. A Skull Satamon flew up towards him.

"Ah, Chaos Gallantmon, the master wishes to see you."

"Alright, tell him I'm coming in now."

Chaos Gallantmon walked down the hall towards the throne room. He stopped in front of 2 large doors. They opened up slowly. He stepped into the room and walked towards the center. Before him was a huge crystal. Inside looked like the small black spirit of an evil digimon. Chaos Gallantmon bowed before it.

"Oh, great and powerful Moon=Milleniumon. I bring news. Ryo has brought the DD from the other world into this world. He plans on having them join up with the Tamers and strike us."

Moon=Milleniumon's crystal radiated.

"Ah yes. Ryo was the one who had sealed me away before. Now he has brought help including the 5 DD that defeated me, including the one whom I still give Nightmares too. Scott Paterson and Ryo Akiyama. I give them Nightmares of my power. I shall enjoy torturing those 2. This should be interesting. Chaos Gallantmon, I want you too keep on eye on them."

Chaos Gallantmon stood up and saluted. He vanished into thin air.

In a dark corner, 2 boys watched the scene with excitement. Both had a Digimon behind them. One had an Agumon, another had a Gabumon. Only these 2 digimon were black, and viral.

"Is something going to happen? I feel excited!" A short haired Blond boy asked.

"Calm down, we should try to keep a cool head during battle, though it is exciting." The Long Raven haired boy answered.

Meanwhile, Rika was watching Renamon train in the park, while she thought to herself.

"Ugh, why do I keep having thoughts of him? Ryo keeps coming into my thoughts. do I love him? Or is it just infatuation? I can't let Henry know, or Takato."

Suddenly new thoughts came into Rika's mind which made her blush even more.

"Takato, kind caring, handsome, sexy. AGH!! First Ryo, now Takato?! Am I in love with Takato as well?!"

Renamon stopped sensing her Tamer's thoughts.

"Ah. First it was Ryo, but now she is in love with Takato too. She isn't sure which one she loves."

Rika sat there.

'It was bad enough I had these thoughts of Ryo, but now I've got some of Takato too. Great, I had to fall in love with 2 of my best friends. Ryo or Takato, which one do I love best?'

Meanwhile Takato had let Guilmon out of his "house," and the 2 were walking down the street. Takato seemed to have a certain girl on his mind.

"Today, I'm gonna tell Jeri how I feel. But how am I gonna tell her. She's so cute, pretty and innocent. Any guy would want her, or Rika. She's also beautiful, sexy, strong, brave. HUH?!"

Make that, TWO girls.

"How'd Rika get into my thoughts? Ah no. I love Rika as well? Now this complicates everything. Sigh. What now?"

Takato thought he had love resolved, but now with 2 girls he loved, everything just got mixed up.

Ryo wasn't thinking about anything but getting the DD to the city. He felt great working with Ken again.

'It's been so long since I've seen him. Now we can work together, just like in the old days.'

Ken had the same thoughts.

'Ryo, my best friend, is actually here again. I've missed him.'

He looked around.

"So this is Ryo's new home town. Probably no different from the Shinjuku in our world."

Scott and Tai looked around. Both were curious about "Digimon Tamers," who weren't exactly DD. It didn't quite make sense to them.

"Hey Tai. Do you think the leader of The Tamers might be a goggle boy, like you and Davis?"

Scott said with a laugh.

Tai couldn't help but laugh himself.

"Well it's possible."

Ryo led everyone into town and they stopped near the tourist bureau. Ryo turned to everyone.

"Ok, here are some maps of Shinjuku. Feel free to look around. At 3:00 I need you all to meet me and the tamers at the park near here, and I'll brief everyone on the mission, as well as introduce you to the tamers. I'm looking forward to fighting with you guys."

Ryo and Monodramon walked off and waved to the others.

"Well." Tai said. "We should split into pairs in groups so we don't get separated totally. Let's pair off. Sora comes with me."

"Woohoo!!"

Sora bounced around happily, but then she realized everyone was staring at her. She rushed over to Tai's side, blushing like a little girl from embarrassment.

Tai just laughed and continued pairing.

"Mimi and Scott will pair up."

Scott scooped latched onto Mimi's arm grinning stupidly. Mimi just giggled.

"Bakura and Willis will go together, Davis goes with Ken, Matt will come with Sora and I."

2 couples and 1 trio nodded to each other then went different ways, with their digimon straight behind them.

Ken, Wormmon, Veemon, and Davis came across a shop with the sign, "Digimon Cards."

"Digimon Cards?!"

This caught Davis' attention instantly he rushed into the shop and checked everything out. Ken chuckled and followed his goggle headed friend inside. They were amazed at what they saw.

"Digimon's a card game here?!"

Veemon looked at a Veemon card.

"Hey! That's me! There's Wormmon too!"

Wormmon looked as well.

"Wow. All my stats and digivolutions as well."

As the 2 boys and 2 Digimon were looking around, Rika and Renamon just happened to pass by and see them.

"More Digimon Tamers in this world?"

Meanwhile, Tai, Sora, Matt, Agumon, Biyomon, and Gabumon, were checking out a nearby café. Matt and Gabumon were checking out some of the food, while Tai, Sora, Agumon, and Biyomon, were at the table and had already ordered. Tai was sipping on some coffee and had fed a doughnut to Agumon, who shared it with Biyomon, while Sora just looked outside at the busy city.

'So this is the city of Shinkuku? I wonder what it's like in our world.'

She then turned back to her goggle-headed boyfriend, and her expression suddenly went dreamy.

'Just a quiet date with Tai. It's too bad we're on a mission, or I could have some private time with him. Oh, well. Digidestined duties come first. But still.'

Tai noticed Sora in a dreamy state. He snickered to himself. He leaned over and kissed her on the lips.

Sora thought she was imagining Tai leaning over and kissing her, but then she slowly came back to reality, realizing she had been kissed for real. She blushed and shook her head.

"Oh God! Sorry Tai. I'm acting like a stupid giddy school girl."

"Hey it's alright. But why dream about me, when you have the real thing right with you? Of course, if you want something beyond a dream, I'll make sure you get it tonight."

Tai said the last part with a coy smile and glint in his eyes. Agumon and Biyomon couldn't help but chuckle. Sora blushed madly all over with a mixture of embarrassment, and mostly arousal, and stared at the floor but was smiling.

'God, when did I become so lewd.?'

She thought.

Gabumon watched what was going on and pointed it out to Matt, who rolled his eyes.

"I better keep an eye on Tai and Sora, just in case they decide to be naughty."

Elsewhere, Scott and Kotemon had been dragged into a clothing store by Mimi and Palmon. Mimi was gushing at all the clothes that were on sale. Scott was whimpering about how much this would cost him.

"Mimi, you know I don't have enough money to by the whole store."

Mimi just pouted.

"Honestly! You really think I would go buy every piece of designer clothing I see?"

"Well, maybe."

Scott and Kotemon burst out laughing, and Palmon soon joined in. When they finally stopped after half a minute, Mimi had that "Don't make me mad or I'll cry" look. It then switched to the Puppy dog eyes.

Scott sighed.

"Okay, which do you think is the best of the merchandise?"

Still pouting, Mimi pointed to one of the most popular outfits. It had a pink Baby Tee with what looked like a black tank top underneath it. The bottom was a flimsy, green miniskirt that went past the thigh.

Scott had to surpass a nosebleed at the thought of Mimi wearing that. Resolved he went and picked it out.

Mimi's eyes started to glitter and she started to smile. She let out a squeal and glomped Scott.

"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!! I love you so much Scott!!"

She started kissing him all over.

Though Scott was enjoying this, he didn't want to attract anymore stares.

"Woah! Calm down Mimi! Let's go buy this already."

Mimi reluctantly pulled away as she took the outfit and brought it to the counter.

The couple walked out the store, and their digimon followed close behind. Mimi was skipping happily at the purchase of her new outfit. Scott was relieved that that outfit was on sale, and was all Mimi wanted. It didn't cost him as much as he thought it would.

'Boyfriends around the world are jealous as hell of me, I can feel it.'

He snickered at the thought. Then he began to speak.

"Hope this made your Mimi."

Mimi turned to him, with a cute smile.

"It has, thanks sweetie."

Then suddenly, a certain flare started in her voice and eyes. Scott knew that look and voice. It was when Mimi wanted something, and she knew he could make him want it to. Mimi grabbed Scott's hand and pulled him into an alleyway. Scott got a nosebleed, because he knew what was coming next. Kotemon and Palmon just stared after the 2.

In another area, Bakura, Snow Agumon, and Willis, Terriermon, and Lopmon were checking out electronics. Bakura was a real video game freak as he checked out all the games and systems. Willis tore his gaze away from the new laptops and laughed at Bakura's "Kid in a Candy Store" antics. Bakura finally settle down and selected some hand-held equipment.

"It's something to pass the time, when waiting." He said.

He and Snow Agumon went over to the Counter with the merchandise. Bakura was nice enough to get some for Willis too.

"I'll challenge you later."

As the Boys and Digimon stepped out of the store, they were being watched by 4 figures: 2 humans and 2 Digimon.

"What do you think Tsunami? Are they the ones we seek?" A masculine voice said.

"Yes Touji, I'm certain of it." The female voice replied. "They are the ones Moon=Milleniumon has warned us about."

"Personally, I don't see why we should leave everything up to Chaos Gallantmon. Dynasmon here is far more superior."

The boy pointed to his white, dragon-like knight digimon.

"Don't forget about mine. Right, Crusadermon?"

The magenta colored knight digimon nodded.

"Let's keep an eye on the rest shall we?"

"I don't think we'll need to worry about that. Seiya, and Konatsu are doing a fine job. Must you doubt everyone's abilities?"

"I just don't want anything to go wrong."

Touji and Dynasmon disappeared.

Kasumi shook her head.

"Touji, you always worry too much."

She and Crusadermon disappeared too.

Meanwhile, Davis's team stepped out of the card shop. Davis seemed eager to try out the Digimon card game. Ken didn't mind playing either.

"Well, what now?" Ken asked.

"I think we should." Davis began.

"Get ready to fight!!" A third voice shouted.

Everyone looked towards the source. Veemon and Wormmon saw a tall fox digimon come towards them in a flying kick. They jumped out of the way before they were hit.

Ken noticed a strawberry heaired girl with a D-arc, much like Ryo's.

"What are you doing?!"

"I'm challenging you to a battle, tamer."

"Tamer?! I'm not a tamer!!"

"Then why do you have a Digimon? Where's your D-Arc?"

"I have this instead!" Ken flashed his D-3 digivice.

Rika gasped.

'That's from Season 2 of digimon. How'd this kid get it? No matter. His Wormmon can be beaten.'

Ken nodded to Wormmon and held out his digivice.

"WORMMON DIGIVOLVE TO. STINGMON!!"

Stingmon faced Renamon.

"I now have a better edge against this champion."

"Champion? I'm a Rookie digimon."

Stingmon was shocked.

"What?! Who are you?"

"Renamon."

Stingmon thought.

'I've never heard of a digimon with that name. Must exist only in this Universe.'

Renamon was thinking as well.

'I've never fought a Stingmon before. Wonder if he's as powerful as he seems?'

Davis and Veemon stood forward.

"Veemon's joining the fight too."

"VEEMON DIGIVOLVE TOO. EX-VEEMON!!"

Ex-Veemon and Stingmon stood side by side.

Davis and Ken nodded and held out both of their digivices.

"EX-VEEMON!!"

"STINGMON!!"

"DNA DIGIVOLVE TOO. PAILDRAMON!!"

Rika and Renamon were shocked.

"These guys can DNA digivolve their digimon?! Guess this won't be easy."

Rika readied her D-Arc and cards. Her D-Arc glowed as she lifted it above her head. She whipped out her Digivolution card and slashed it through her D-arc

"DigiModify! Digivolution Activate!"

"RENAMON DIGIVOLVE TO. KYUBIMON!!"

Rika then took her Blue Card and slashed it through her D-Arc.

"DigiModify! Matrix Digivolution Activate!!!"

"KYUBIMON DIGIVOLVE TO. TAOMON!!"

Taomon and Paildramon faced each other. Taomon struck first.

"TALISMAN OF LIGHT!!"

The spell sign shot at Paildramon at a quick speed.

Paildramon dodged and aimed his guns at the shaman.

"DESPERADO BLASTER!!"

Taomon had to run to avoid the stream of bullets coming after her. She stopped and shot up, hitting Paildramon in the stomach.

Paildramon forcefully kicked Taomon away and smacked her from above, sending her, falling into the pavement.

CRASH!!

Taomon struggled to get up.

'Ugh. So this is the power of a Paildramon?'

She managed to dart away, just as Paildramon swooped down to try and strike.

"THOUSAND SPELLS!!"

The attack caught Paildramon off guard and flattened him. He lay on the ground, and felt Taomon strike him with a drop kick.

"Do you give up?"

"NO WAY!"

Paildramon suddenly flipped up, throwing Taomon to the ground.

Taomon however got back up quickly before Paildramon could do anything.

Paidramon was shocked.

"This Taomon is unlike anything I ever fought before. Is it impossible to beat her?"

Rika smirked. She had the upper hand in the battle.

Ken and Davis weren't happy at all.

"I'm really beginning to dislike their attitude."

"Yeah, tell me about it."

Taomon's spell attacks were keeping Paildramon on edge.

"DESPERADO BLASTER!!"

The attack was blocked. Taomon was gone.

Taomon reappeared from behind and back dropped Paildramon.

Paildramon, however used this moment to his advantage.

"DESPERADO BLASTER!!"

Taomon was hit many times from Paildramon's guns and she fell to the ground. Paildramon got up and so did Taomon. Both Digimon charged up their attacks and prepared to fire at each other.

"STOP!!"

Ryo and Cyberdramon appeared with a serious look.

Everyone halted their attacks.

"Ryo! This rouge Tamer just attacked us."

Rika's eyes grew wide at Ken.

"YOU KNOW RYO?!"

Ryo shook his head.

"Rika, there are some things I need to explain to everyone. Come with me and Cyberdramon."

Everyone followed Ryo. The whole fight and scene were being observed by a dark boy and a Devidramon.

"What an interesting battle that was."

A girl and another Renamon suddenly appeared behind the Boy and Devidramon. The Girl's Renamon was not the usual Yellow kind. This Renamon was Silver.

"Hi Akito." She said sexily.

"Faith. Please. I prefer to be called Vice."

"But Akito is so much better."

She licked Vice's Earlobe. Vice kissed her.

"I found some DD and tamers who might be connected with the one we're searching for. At long last we'll have our men, Scott and Ryo."

"You really think so?"

"I know so. I've tracked their location to this dimension. It appears that they'll be in a meeting with the others. We'll wait until then. Then we'll confront the 2."

The couple and their digimon disappeared. Who were they? What did they want? Scott and Ryo would have to be on their guard.

(CLIFF HANGER!! I'd like to thank TheUndeadStalker, and TheSoulHacker, for letting me use their Characters Vice, and Faith. Anyways. Stay tuned for Chapter 4. Ja Ne!! ^_^)
