[Cue Theme - "Infinity (Red Zone Mix)"]

[A clear blue sky, a few white clouds floating lazily by. Pan down, past the sun, until the skyline of a city comes into view: San Francisco.]

D I G I T A L M O N S T E R S

[We weave through the skyscrapers, before cutting to the streets below, a crowded sidewalk. A shadow quickly moves over them. Cut again to the skyline, then zoom into the top of the TransAmerica Building (the large triangular building), where a figure stands with its arms crossed: Aero Veedramon.]

[Cut to a red background, a silver haired person turns left to face the camera, Ira Caraway, before fading away. Fal Michael fades in and does the same, only turning right, before fading away. David Milliard fades in, turns left to face the camera, then fades away.]

[Aero Veedramon, Seadramon, and Veemon Akira fade in and do the same as their respective partners]

[Cut to a shot of the camera flying over Tokyo bay towards Tokyo itself, the skyline in the distance. Cut again to a shot flying over Shinjuku, looking straight down as we pass over the Tokyo Metropolitan Building]

[Cut to a blue background; Kouyuu Fukushima, "Callie" Stone, and Kaoline Shokai fade in and do the same as the others, followed by their partners: Hitorimon, Psymon, and Dianamon]

[We now see two Earths floating next to eachother in front of a star-filled background. Suddenly, two glowing red eyes open, looking somewhat faded, one over each Earth.]

[Now we are above the clouds, in the distance we see a giant blue-ish dragon, Azulongmon. We rapidly zoom in to the face of a person sitting on his head: Caspian Callaway. Cut to what appears to be a desert, another young man, Shadow, stands alone covering his face with one hand (like Heero in the Gundam Wing intro), we pull back just far enough as Antylamon lands in front of him. Cut again, Garfield Magus and Black Agumon are back to back, Garfield firing two handguns and his partner shooting a fireball. Now we are in a field of tall grass, Jajan appears and shoots an arrow at a target, then Celermon walks up behind him.]

[All of the partner Digimon each appear and fire their signature attacks at an unseen enemy (in order: Aero Veedramon, Seadramon, Veemon Akira, Hitorimon, Psymon, Dianamon, Azulongmon, Antylamon, Black Agumon, and Celermon). We then cut to black. The background lightens to reveal seven shadowed figures: Olympidianamon, Metal Seadramon, Ridatsumon Zero, Imperialdramon, Paladinmon, Black WarGreymon and Adeemon.]

[All of the Tamers (Ira, Fal, David, Kouyuu, Callie, Kaoline, Caspian, Shadow, Garfield, and Jajan) walk into view (like the end of Digimon Season 3's intro), followed by their respective partners.]

"Reunion"

Wednesday, April 8, 2071

Tokyo, Japan

Callie walked home slowly from school. She was just about to go in when the bushes rustled. Callie spun on her heel as Psymon appeared.

"Psymon! What are you doing out here!?" Callie said, coming down the steps to the Digimon.

"I got bored, so when your mom left this afternoon I came down here and walked around. Don't worry though, no one saw me."

Callie looked at her and sighed. "I wish you would have told me that you planned to do that..."

Psymon looked at her feet. "I'm sorry Callie..."

Callie smiled. "Its okay. Come on. Let's go for a walk. I wasn't quite ready to go in anyway."

Psymon smiled and skipped happily beside Callie.  The girl walked towards a large oak tree in the side yard. Psymon suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Callie..."

Callie looked at her partner. "What's wrong?"

"There's something over there..."Psymon said pointing at the tree.

"Huh?" Callie looked and then shivered. "You're right." She slowly walked toward the tree. "What is it?"

"Callie! Stop!!" Psymon called. Callie reached out and slowly caressed the bark of the tree. Suddenly, a dark claw reached out and grabbed her!

"Heheh...gotcha!" a darkly colored lizard growled as it stepped out of the tree. Callie's eyes widened.  Psymon felt powerful arms wrap around her as she began to run towards Callie.

"Callie!! LET ME GO!"

"Not this time you little spy!" another lizard said, holding Psymon tightly.

Psymon let out a moan: "Let me go!!!"

Callie struggled against the Dark Lizamon holding her. "Let me go you brute!" she said as she slugged him with her free hand.   The lizamon let her go and gripped his snout, a small trickle of blood now flowing.  Callie ran towards the lizamon holding Psymon.

"You let her go!" Callie had almost reached her when yet another lizamon grabbed her.

Psymon looked pleadingly at Callie. "Callie!"

Three other lizamon appeared and helped the one Callie had hit. The others then approached the girl.  The bloodied one looked at her and then said two words:

"Kill her."

"NO!"

Callie gasped as one began to draw a razor sharp claw across her throat. "PSYMON!" she yelled. The digivice at her side began to glow.

The lizamon holding Psymon suddenly let her go as she began to glow.

"PSYMON DIGIVOLVE TO..." a flash and in Psymon's place was a larger fox like creature. On each ear hung a gold earring and gloves were on each paw and spats were around her ankles. "PSYDRAMON!"

Callie stared up at her partner. "Wow..."

Psydramon looked at the Dark Lizamon holding Callie. "Let her go!"

The four lizamon scattered except for the one Callie had hit. Psydramon's eyes narrowed as she raised her hand.  The enemy Digimon was flung back by her psi abilities.

"Thanks," said Callie, looking up at Psydramon.

"So, this is what Japan's like, eh?" 

Callie and Psydramon look up to see a young silver-haired man clapping in the tree above them. 

A Lopmon appears from behind his leg as she says, "I agree, this is not like I thought it to be."

"Well, Mist, it appears she sees us," the teen replies, glancing down to see a girl and Digimon looking back at him.

"So what does it matter?" Mist asks, a sinister tone in her voice.

 
"Stand your ground, little Lopmon," he orders.  Psydramon looked up at the pair suspiciously.

"I'd get out of that tree before I blow it up..." she said sourly.

The stranger looked at Psydramon. "And why pray tell should I do that?"

"Because it's an illusion. It's actually a gate way to the Digital World," Psydramon scowled.

"Who are you?" Callie asks.

The stranger hopped down in front of Callie. "No one of real concern. You can call me Shadow, though. And the Digimon up there is Mist."

Mist jumped down and landed next to Shadow.

"I see…" Callie replied, not exactly sure what to make of the two.

Psydramon took aim at the tree as she said, "Get down, Callie. I don't want you to get hurt."

"Right," said Callie as she moved out of the way. Shadow and Mist moved next to her.

"So it's Callie, is it?" Shadow asked off-handedly.

"No, it's Kana to you. Only two people are allowed to call me Callie." Callie watched as Psydramon prepared her attack.

"Ahh...I see," said Shadow, "Some dashing, handsome, brave boy of yours is one and the other would be your partner."

Callie glared up at him as she replied, "My father and Psymon. No one else."

"Callie, could you two hold it down for a minute?" Psydramon asked.

"Sorry."

Psydramon drew back her fist and then unleashed a tremendous amount of psi energy.

"PHYSIC FIST!"

With that, the tree burst into millions of digitized pieces. A portal swirled underneath. Callie ran up next to Psymon.

"That can take you home?" she asked.

Psydramon nodded her head and then looked at Callie. "Want to go?"

"Are you serious?" Callie asked as she looked up at her partner.

Psydramon nodded again. "Just for a little. We can come right back."

Callie nodded. "Lets do it then." She then turned to Shadow and Mist: "Sorry to run off like this, but my partner and I are going exploring." Callie approached the portal.

Psydramon took one step and then de-digivolved into Psymon. She reached up and took Callie's hand. "Let's do it!"

Callie nodded and the two jumped in.  As the gate closes behind them, Shadow smirks.  Excellent.

--

"Darn it! This is hard, driving using the wrong foot!" Garfield shouted.

"You sure have good self-control," said BlackAgumon, sipping at a bottle of water.

"Patience and self-control are things you learn in my line of work," Garfield replied as he tried going again, "Why'd those stupid Ogremon have to break my leg anyway?"

BlackAgumon was blissfully silent.

"I'm sure I'll get it eventually," Garfield muttered.

"I'll take a nap."

And with that, BlackAgumon fell asleep.


An hour later…

"Yawn! Oh! I see we're moving," BlackAgumon noted.

"Yeah. I'm getting the hang of working the pedals with my left foot," Garfield replied.

"Sure are. AH! WATCH OUT FOR THAT CLIFF!" BlackAgumon screamed.

"AHH!" the two shouted as the APC went over a cliff.

They fell 8 ft. before the APC hit the ground.

"That wasn't far," BlackAgumon remarked.

"Nope."

The APC started moving again.

"Are we there yet?" BlackAgumon asked.

"Are we where yet?" Garfield countered.

"Anywhere!" BlackAgumon answered.

"Yes," Garfield snipped.

"Yippee!" BlackAgumon cheered.

Garfield sighed and focused on the trail ahead.


Another hour later.

"BlackAgumon! Wake up!" Garfield shouted.

"What's up?" he yawned.

"I need you to fight that big orange dinosaur with a flag in front of us. I can't fight with one leg," the mercenary said.

"Sure thing." BlackAgumon stepped outside and digivolved.

"Go away you military bozo! We're neutral and we aren't joining you!" DarkTyrannomon shouted.

"Woah! I don't want to fight either! I'm...lost," the Greymon replied.

"Lost? Where are you headed?" DarkTyrannomon asked.

"Trying to find the City of Machines. Any idea where that is?" the Greymon asked.

"Sorry. Me and my partner over there are lost too," said DarkTyrannomon, gesturing at the APC. Garfield waved.  "Yeah, well, sorry we couldn't help you find your way."

"It's no problem.  Hey!  I know!  Why don't we travel together?  I mean, I've been walking forever since I got separated from my group," the Greymon suggested.

"Which faction are you with?" DarkTyrannomon asked.

"I'm with the Phoenix Armed Forces."

"Okay. That's cool with us. We got attacked by a group of Ogremon who were with some other group."

"Feh. Weaklings I bet." Greymon scoffed.

"Uh...right. We took them out pretty easily, I guess," DarkTyrannomon commented.

"Wait a second! We don't have room for a big guy like you!" Garfield shouted from the APC.  Greymon smirked.

"Silly human! I'll just turn back to Agumon!"

Then the two Digimon turned back to their Rookie forms.

"Well...okay. Hop in."

The two Digimon hopped in the APC and the three began searching for the City of Machines.

--

Who knew how hot it was in that desert?  It had to be a good 140 degrees out, which even Fal, living in a desert, wasn't used to. At this time and temperature, he would be out on the beach, surfing, picking up girls (the ones in thongs 'specially) or just plain swimming. However, he was nowhere near the ocean, as far as Akira told him and Serpentmon. Couldn't those idiots have picked a different area than this? Even Death Valley looked like a glacier compared to this. What a jip, was what he was thinking.

"The only day I can actually ditch school without losing out on my grades, and I get stuck down here in the middle of nowhere..." Fal grumbled.

Serpentmon merely slithered along the side of his path, moving the angle of a Sidewinder Rattlesnake. Ironic, seeing a water-type Digimon moving through the desert at a fast pace, even if he was a snake. Must be his dragon half.

"You ok, there, Fal?" Serpentmon asked.

"Just dandy." Fal grumbled even more. He decided to move up beside David, least bit curious about his only human companion. Kinda reminded him of the days when Callie wasn't around, lonely and boring.

"So, how did you get sucked into all of this?" Fal asked.

"I should be asking you that.  According to Serpentmon, you had some past experience in the Digital World," David replied.

"It was in a water region, so I figured the Digital World must've been fertile and green. Not like this," Fal shrugged.

"Oh.  Well, to tell you the truth, I don't know how I got here. I came home one day and found this thing," he held up his digivice, "Next thing you know, here I am."

"David Milliard...you wouldn't happen to be the Digital Khan, now would you?" Fal asked.

"Yeah, why?"

Fal did a double take, shocked, "YOU!? You are the one I lost to in the StarCraft tournament of '66!?" he grabbed him by the shirt collar and held him up, "You're lying!"

David was just as shocked as Fal was, but at holding him up like that. "No, I'm not! I swear, I'm not!"

"Really? Then answer this, what's your internet Alias?"

"Digital Khan. Everybody knows that."

"Your AIM one, the one that you use outside tournaments and competitions." Fal's grip tightened. Serpentmon and Akira just stood there, not knowing what to do.

"Is your partner always like this?" Akira asked.

"Yep, that's my Fal," Serpentmon shrugged, as if this was normal.

"All right, all right! It's DkMatrix79!"

"Ok, good, now what does the 79 stand for?"

"What?" David questioned.

"You told me on AIM. If you are the Digital Khan, you would be able to tell me what that means," Fal smirked.

"It stands for Universal Century 0079, the time of the One Year War in the Mobile Suit Gundam anime," David replied.

Fal, satisfied, put David down to the ground. "Sorry about that, I have a thing for imitators."

"No hard feelings," David said, truthfully, but he was still a bit shaken, "What was your AIM anyway? I'll add it to my buddy list when I get back"

"BlueDragoon173," Fal replied. "In the tournament, I was Poseidon."

"Ah, I remember you now; you were one of the 4 finalists. You used the Terran race, and had stealth methods. I must say, I was impressed."

"Don't be, that was one of my worst matches. I lost against you in the first 4 minutes," Fal replied.

"You sent all your forces out after my base, while I did the same. It was merely a race to who would finish who first. Zergs move faster than Terran, yet the Terran have more powerful weapons and equipment, especially the Vulture bikes you used. Your attacks were more effective than mine, my Zerglings and Mutalisks were much faster with their assault, so I won."

Fal shook his head, "Maybe, still, I should've seen it coming..." he then shrugged, "Ah well, I guess I'll do better next time."

"Yeah," David agreed.

It was going to be a good friendship...

--

Callie and Psymon stumbled along. They both had no idea where they we're really going, but the steady beep from Callie's digivice meant they had be getting near somewhere. Callie glanced at the device again.

"We'd make better progress of whatever it is would stop moving…" she said, wiping her forehead, "And if I had better shoes."

Since they had entered the digital world right away, Callie hadn't had time to change out of her uniform. Her white with blue trim sweater was stuffed in her school bag, leaving her in a tank top. Unfortunately there wasn't much she could do about her skirt and shoes.

Psymon slowed her pace. "I'm hungry..." she said.

"Me too..." Callie suddenly opened her bag and began rummaging through. "Hey, here are some granola bars I bought earlier." She passed one to Psymon.

"Yay!" Psymon eagerly opened the package and ate the bar.

Callie touched a roll in the bottom of her bag. "What's this?" she pulled out a roll of clothes around a pair of tennis shoes. "Hey, my gym uniform! Now I can wear shorts and tennis shoes. We'll be able to move a little faster." Callie quickly changed out her skirt and shoes. "What do you think?"

Psymon looked at her a little oddly. "Not bad. Very different though."

Callie smiled and looked at the digivice again. "Looks like we need to go this way," she pointed and started walking again.

Psymon followed behind her. "I wonder what we're chasing..."

Callie shrugged. "I don't know, I just hope we find it soon."

Psymon nodded. "Me too."

--

"Man, it's hot..." mutters David, wiping the sweat from his forehead before tightening his jacket around his waist. The group has been wandering around this desert for quite a while now, and it isn't getting any cooler.

"Wow, thanks for stating the obvious," says Serpentmon. Fal just glares at his partner for a moment, the heat getting to him also.

"Aren't there any clouds in this world?" David continues, ignoring Serpentmon and looking up at the sky. Akira silently shrugs as he walks up next to the human.

"So...where are you from again?" he asks, trying to steer the conversation away from the heat.

"Sacramento, California," replies David, "The city you saw when we first, um, met."

"Akira was in our world?" asks Fal.

"Sort of. At the time, we both thought we were hallucinating," replies David.

"Because you saw a little blue dragon?" says Serpentmon sarcastically.

"No, I saw this 'Sacramento' place, while David saw the village I was at before..." replies Akira, trailing off towards the end and putting a hand to his bandaged shoulder.  Why did I survive...?

David reaches into his pocket and pulls out the digivice again, looking it over in his hand. An interesting little device made of plastic with an LCD screen along with a few buttons at the center, and what looks like a card reader along the side. The majority of the device is colored white, except for the small ring around the screen, which is a dark gray. David pushes one of the buttons, bringing up a holographic image of Akira. At the bottom of the screen, various bits of data are written in small print:

Veemon. Rookie Level Digimon, Small Dragon type.

Age: 11

Gender Programming: Male

Attribute: Vaccine

Special Attacks: V-Headbut, V-Punch


Heh... thinks David, pushing the button again to turn off the hologram and looking up, then stopping suddenly.

"What is it?" asks Fal, stopping and looking back at him.

"Is that a mirage...?" he asks, pointing at something in the distance. Fal looks in that direction and doesn't see anything, at first.

"I think it's...an oasis!" replies Fal, as David gives a sigh of relief.

"It must be Fort Aleksandrea," says Akira, "That's the only thing the Dragon Vanguard have this far into the desert."

"So, you mean they're friends there? YES! Let's get moving," says David, the group starting to walk towards the oasis before quickly realizing someone isn't with them.

"Serpentmon, come on," says Akira, turning to his friend.

"No," he replies, coiling up like a cobra, "I'm not going.  You know my past, Akira, I'm not going back to them!" Serpentmon hissed, like a snake. He was a dragon, but his attitude was like that of a cobra.

"C'mon, Serpentmon, Akira here looks like they can help you through this one," Fal replied, knowing of course what Serpentmon meant. He stared down at his digivice, just to make sure if his attitude was effected by the heat.

Serpentmon. Rookie Level Digimon, Sea Dragon type.

Age: Unknown

Gender Programming: Male

Attribute: Virus

Special Attacks: Tidal Pool, Massenko

Current Health Condition: Normal


"Well, the heat hasn't gotten too far into you. That's a good thing," Fal remarked.

"Grrrr...All right, I'll go, only to cool off. However, Akira, you're going to stick up for me when we get there," Serpentmon growled in defeat.

"Don't worry, Akira will have it all under control, Serpentmon," said David. He started walking, however, only Akira and Serpentmon went with him. "Fal?"

Fal's eyes seemed to trail off Serpentmon and onto another site. What looked like a girl in the horizon. One that looked oddly familiar...

--

Callie had been glad for her tennis shoes; otherwise her feet would have been blistered. Psymon was not so lucky and had taken to hovering a few inches off the ground. The only problem was that this took a lot of energy for the little fox and she had to rest often, which usually meant that Callie had to carry her for a little.

"How much further?" Psymon asked. She was "walking" again but slowly.

Callie pulled out her digivice and looked. The dots that they had been tracking were closer. "Not much farther. In fact we should almost be on top of one."

Psymon looked around. "I don't see anything except sand..." she said.

Callie shaded her eyes and looked around. "Me either...wait there's something over that way," Callie pointed.

Psymon looked over and saw the oasis. "That's a Dragon Vanguard fort," she shivered. "I'd prefer to stay away from it."

Callie bit her lower lip. "I don't know if we can. I really need something to drink, and something to eat would be nice, and to get out of the sun for a little."

Psymon groaned. "Okay...but only for a few minutes..."

Callie nodded. "Alright."

The two began walking again. Callie replaced the digivice in her pocket and rearranged her bag. As she looked up someone was standing off in the horizon looking in their general direction. With them was a large snake thing...

"What the..." Callie muttered.

Psymon looked up at her. "Something wrong?"

"Look. There's someone there. Another human...and a snake thing..." she pointed to the two figures.

Psymon looked. "You're right...That is definitely a human and the other is a Serpentmon..." she replied.

"I wonder..." Callie pulled out her digivice and looked. The blinking dot was right in front of her and about the distance it was from her to the other human. "That's it!"

Psymon looked at her. "What's it?"

"The dots on the digivice are other humans! I'm not alone..." Callie began to run toward the figure. "Come on Psymon!"

Psymon forgot hovering and lowered herself to the ground. "Callie wait!!" she ran as fast as she could after Callie.

Callie stumbled once or twice but still plunged head long toward the figure. Psymon ran after yelling at her to stop before she exhausted herself, but Callie wasn't listening. She stopped a few feet in front of the human, which turned out to be a guy.

"I couldn't help but notice you a little ways off, so I ran here..." Callie gasped for breath, but no matter how hard she pulled she couldn't seem to catch it.

The guy looked at her hard, and then spoke one word: "Kana?"

Callie looked up. "Fal?" The world seems to grow dark suddenly and Callie fell forward toward the hot sand. The last thing she heard was Psymon screaming:

"CALLIE!!"

[Cue End Theme – "I'll be there – Megumi Hayashibara"]

[In a dim, trash-filled alleyway, we see Ira Caraway, his hands in his coat pockets as wind blows his silver hair into his face.  Panning up slowly, we see Aero Veedramon looking down at him from atop the building to his right.  Cut to a street in Sacramento, overlooking San Francisco Bay.  David Milliard is on the sidewalk, leaning against a building and staring towards the ground, as rain falls from a dim and cloudy sky.  As we pan to the right, dissolve into a similar view of Veemon Akira, who is doing the same except he is in a devastated village, the way he is leaning giving the impression that they're standing back to back.  The sky is black, but glowing red as is rains lightly]

[Cut to a beach on the Southern California coast at sunset.  Fal Micheal watches as the sun slowly sinks below horizon, bathing him in an orange-red light.  Quickly zoom into his eye, then back out to see Serpentmon doing the same.  Cut to Kana Stone sitting on a windowsill, staring out across Tokyo as the Sun sets in the distance.  Dissolve to a similar scene in the Digital World with Psymon, only she is sitting on the opposite side of her window, staring out across a devastated city with columns of smoke lazily drifting across the red-orange sky.]

[On an empty road on Okinawa, we see Kouyuu Fukushima leaning against his car staring towards us as a heavy rain falls from the dark sky.  Cut to the Digital World, Kaoline Shokai, Dianamon, and Wizardmon stare up at the Digital star filled sky.  Pan and zoom to a tree to the right, Jajan looks out from behind it at her, Celermon behind him.]

[Cut to a gray background, the shadows of Azulongmon appears.  Then, Shadow and Caspian Callaway fade into view, Lopmon Mist on Shadow's shoulder.  Cut again to a dark room, where Garfield Magnus loads a handgun as Black Agumon looks on]

[On the plains of North America, Alan Maxwell and Oppimon stare at the dark clouds brooding in the distance ominously.  In the Digital World, Titaniumon Utora stands in the shadows of some city.]

[A park in Tokyo, Shiro Arkov walks silently in a heavy rain, several shadows passing by him.  A short distance away, Tim Areo and Dashamon watch.]
