Charlote Ichiro (Cassy)- 6

After everyone gets in we go to the Digital World!

Addy- Would anyone beleive her if she said she did own it?

Chapter 5- Revival of an Old Friend

Ryo yawned as he slowly awoke. When he opened his blue eyes, he was startled to see another pair of blue eyes staring back at him.

"Wakey! Wakey!"

"Ahhh!" shouted Ryo, who took a pillow and threw it at the intruder.

"That's a nice way to greet your friend," said Isis sarcastically. She took the pillow and threw it back at the Digimon King.

"What are you doing in my room?" he asked.

"Waking you up. Didn't you say that we were going to meet your friends at the park?"

"Oh yeah." Ryo yawned. "What time is it?"

"Almost 11."

"Nani!?" Ryo looked at his alarm clock on his nightstand. Sure enough the red numbers read 10:57. "We're supposed to meet them in half an hour!" He jumped up out of bed and rushed to get his clothes from his wooden dresser.

Isis had to stifle a giggle when she noticed her friend's red pajamas had pictures of in-training digimon. She was about to leave when she saw a large blue-gray dragon doll sprawled next to the bed.

"Hey, Ryo! I can't believe you have a Mondromon doll!"

"Just get out and let me get ready." Ryo pushed Isis out of his room and closed the door. He leaned against it and sighed. "That was close." He looked down at his sleeping partner before heading into the adjoining bathroom to shower.

~*~

Addy sat on the edge of a large fountain. A semicircle wall held the falling water that made one think of a waterfall. The American held in each of her hands a card. She stared at the cards, almost puzzling over them.

Kitleymon hopped on her shoulder. "They're there."

Addy nodded. "Thanks, Kit." Addy stood, placing her hands on the bench where she was seated, the cards sliding from her hands. She walked away towards Guilmon's old hideout, leaving Kitleymon and the cards behind. Kitleymon flew home, seeming that she too had forgotten the cards.

If anyone had been there to look they would have seen that the top card had a picture of a disk. The top read in English, "Backup File". The stats, listed below the picture, read, "Restore one deleted digimon".

The bottom card was covered. Only an outline of a yellow furred paw could be seen.

~*~

The American arrived on the scene, waving as she approached her friends. She was a little surprised to see Mila but shook it off.

"Hi, guys!" shouted Addy.

"Hey, Addy! What's up?" asked Kazu.

"Nothing." Addy looked around the group. "Where's Ryo?"

"Hasn't arrived yet," answered Takato. The goggle wearing boy watched as Henry and Zak battled.

"He tells us not to be late and he is," said Rika. "I bet he slept in."

"Here he comes!" shouted Kenta.

"It's about time," stated Rika. She crossed her arms over her chest and glared at the approaching boy.

"SorryâE¦(huff, huff) I'mâE¦(huff) late," panted Ryo when he reached the group. The girl behind him was in better shape, standing calm and collected.

"Hello," the girl greeted with a smile. "My name is Isis Arazil."

After introductions were made, the group left the park to go to the arcade.

~*~

Reelyn walked through the long dark hall, Cashmon behind her. Master wanted to discuss something. Even though she obeyed her master, she would rather have been beating those brats to a bloody pulp.

She opened the door and glared at the other occupant inside. Continuing to glare at Josh, she took her seat across from him, Cashmon next to her.

The room was nothing special, just like the rest of the castle. A wooden table was in the center of the room, the four already occupying the chairs. Torches decorated the stone walls. At the head of the table sat a large empty chair, awaiting its occupant.

Josh sat back in his chair, arms crossed and his eyes closed. He didn't need to see Reelyn to know she was glaring at him again. He could feel her icy clod stare. He smirked a little. It was kind fun to know he could annoy her without doing anything.

The four in the room turned to the form that materialized in the head chair. A brown cloak hid the being's form from view, the hood keeping the face in deep shadow. The only feature that could be seen was the pair of glowing red eyes.

"Master," greeted the four.

Master nodded in return. "I have called you here for an important request. You must put your goals against the chosen on hold."

"But Master! I must punish those tamers called Adhara and Azaki!" shouted Reelyn.

"You mustn't right now. We have delayed long enough. We must start our true mission. In a matter of days, the rifts connecting to both worlds will connect to others. I need you two to prepare the digimon to invade the worlds. We must destroy them if we are to create our own, better world."

The four followers stood. "Yes, Master."

"And Reelyn, notify me when Charlotte and Aimon return."

Cashmon could feel the anger rise in his partner. Reelyn's eyes were hard and cold.

"Yes, Master," said Reelyn before turning and leaving the room.

"What's her problem?" Kasaimon asked Josh.

The teen shrugged. "That list goes on forever." The two left.

Unbeknownst to them, their master smirked under his hood. SoonâE¦.

~*~

Eight teens walked along the side-walk talking. Mila had gone home half an hour ago. Zak had gone with Addy to her house. The two had gotten into an argument over who was the batter rookie digimon in the show. Addy said Agumon and Zak said Veemon. After awhile of sating why on digimon was better then the other- and Rika yelling at them a bit- Addy got fed up with the argument and challenged Zak to a game of Twisted Metal. It was a bit surprising to learn that the quiet, friendly girl enjoyed playing a destructive game.

"I am the self proclaimed Twisted Metal Queen," stated Addy. "We'll play a 3 out of 5 battle match. Whoever wins is right."

"You're on!" agreed Zak. After a goodbye to everyone the two left.

"Are they always like that?" asked Isis.

"From what we know so far, yes," answered Takato.

"They've only met when school started and already they're good friends," stated Henry.

"I had talked to Addy about the 'rivalry' once," said Kenta. "She told me that she believes really good friends can tease each other."

Kazu turned to Rika, his hands together. "That means that you like us, Rika."

"As if. You all are bakas."

"After all we've been through and you still think like that?"

"Okay. Only you two are bakas." Rika pointed to Kazu and Kenta. "Everyone else is tolerable." She turned to Ryo. "I only tolerate you right now 'cause I can rub in your face that I'm better then you."

"I'm touched. So if I beat you we'll be back to our old relationship? I'll start training for a rematch." Everyone except Isis laughed. She was totally confused.

"Okay, someone what to fill me in?" she asked.

"It's nothing. Rika just hated my guts since we first battled in the Digimon card tournament three years ago," explained Ryo.

An hour later Kazu and Kenta left for home. Rika left, saying that her mom wanted her home so they could do a family thing. Even though she spoke if the event with a bored tone, Takato could see she was looking forward to it. Henry had also left, his father having called him on his cell phone to baby-sit Suzey. Now it was just Jeri, Takato, Ryo, and Isis.

The group exited the ice cream shop, each with a cone of his/her own, and went to the park. Isis was talking to Ryo about what she had been doing the past seven years. That left Takato and Jeri sitting alone on a bench.

"You know, Takato," Jeri said, breaking the silence between them, "I can't help but feel jealous of the new tamers."

"Why?" asked the goggle head.

"They each have a digimon while Leomon is gone." Jeri pulled out a rolled up piece of cloth from her purse. She unrolled it to reveal a sock puppet. It wasn't a dog like she usually carried, but a lion. A yellow mane of yarn was sown on the head. Blue buttons served as eyes. She put it on and stared at it. Takato's heart broke at the sight.

"I'm sorry, Jeri. If only I had been stronger."

"It's not your fault. You tried. I was Leomon's tamer. I was just too worried about being weak that I didn't feel the strength everyone saw in me."

"Don't blame yourself, Jeri," the puppet "said". The lion turned to look at Takato. "And you shouldn't blame yourself either. Leomon sacrificed himself to protect all of you."

Takato smiled at the girl.

Jeri took out her D-arc from her purse. She looked at it with confusion. The normal blank screen was now filled with a word flashing in red. "Transferring".

What? She thought.

"You sure have some good friends, Ryo," stated Isis.

"Yeah, they are great. But if you think about how we met, you wouldn't think we would be friends at all. Especially Rika and me."

A thoughtful expression crawled on Isis' face for a moment before disappearing. "You also have a fan club, I see."

"You mean Kazu and Kenta? Well, they are only amateurs compared to me. They want to learn from the best."

"If I remember correctly, you got creamed by Rika yesterday."

"I only lost once!"

"Whatever." Isis turned her gaze away from Ryo, not wanted to hear his "I'm the Digimon King" speech again. It was then she saw it. Fog seemed to appear out of no where. Unlike normal fog that rolled out like a blanket, this fog took the shape of a dome. "What's that?"

"What's wha- Oh great!" Ryo exclaimed. Takato and Jeri rushed to their sides when they saw the fog. "Of all the times a rift could show up."

Takato stared at the fog. "Wait, it's not a rift. It's a digital field. The digimon is stuck in there."

"Digimon?" puzzled Isis.

"That's good. I hope the others get here soon. In the meantime, let's see if anyone's wondering this way." Ryo climbed into a tree and scanned the area. "It's all cle- Isis! What are you doing!?"

"Seeing what's got you three all worked up," answered the teen as she walked toward the fog. She didn't hesitate to step into the gray mass.

"Come on, Ryo!" shouted Takato. "We have to get her out of there before she gets hurt."

"I hope the other's get here soon," said Jeri as Ryo ran towards them.

"Of all the days to leave our digimon at home," groaned Ryo.

"Ahhh!" came a scream from the digital field.

"Oh no! Isis!" The three ran to the digital field.

~*~

Isis looked around her. She couldn't see anything but she could feel eyes on her. The wind suddenly began to pick up. As she tried to hold her hair out of her face she heard a humming sound. It was more like a bee, she realized as she listened. She felt the wind get stronger as the humming grew louder. Slowly, she turnedâE¦.

âE¦.and saw before her a giant red insect with black stripes all over its body. This thing was huge; Isis guessed it was as tall as a two story house. The eyes weren't visible on its head. The insect had large teeth, two pinchers on each side of his mouth. Two arms held three fingers/claws.

Isis searched her mind for the name of the digimon- for she knew it was a digimon- as it watched her, clear wings flapping to fast for her to count. Then it hit her.

"Kuwagamon," she whispered.

The ground shook as the Kuwagamon landed. Isis struggled to stay standing. Saliva dripped from the digimon's mouth. She involuntary took a step back.

Kuwagamon roared and reached out a claw, grabbing her. Isis then did something she hardly ever did. She screamed.

~*~

Ryo, Takato, and Jeri entered the digital field in time to see a flash and Isis about to become lunch. A yellow and black streak shot through the air at the insect digimon's claw. The Kuwagamon cried out in the pain and released Isis. Ryo and Takato ran toward the falling girl, hoping to catch her.

Jeri was about to follow when a glow from her purse caught her attention. She took out her digivice, the source of the light. "Transfer complete" it read.

What's going on? She wondered.

Something flew by her toward Isis. Her heart jumped with hope when she saw the figure. Could it be?

Isis closed her eyes tight, waiting for the painful blow that would send her to the light. She silently prayed she would go to heaven. She was sort of a brat. She never got along with anyone until she met Ryo. She teased him a lot. Before she met him she did take lunch money from younger kids. But those were normal things.

Right?

The landing finally came, but not as painful as she thought. She opened her eyes to see the face of a blue eyed lion. He gave her a gentle smile, as gentle as a lion can smile with sharp teeth. Isis prayed that this digimon- a Leomon, she remembered- wasn't going to eat her.

"Are you alright?" asked Leomon.

Isis slowly nodded her head and was placed on her feet.

"Leomon! You're back!" Jeri ran up and hugged the digimon.

"Yes, Jeri. I'm back."

"But how?"

"I don't know myself. I was lost in darkness. Then I saw a light. I went to it and found myself no longer a meager amount of data, but a digimon once again."

Isis stared at the girl and her partner in amazement. Takato and Ryo were welcoming Leomon back with smiles.

"He's not the only digimon here you know," said a voice. The group looked down and saw two dog-looking digimon. One was yellow with pink stripes. The other was black with blue stripes. They both had the bight blue eyes.

"I'm Salamon," said the yellow one. "Rookie digimon. I may seem cute and cuddly but watch out for my Puppy Glare."

"And I'm Dark Salamon. Rookie digimon. My Black Glare can stop anyone in their tracks."

"This is too weird." Isis lifted her arm to scratch her head when she noticed something she didn't before. She wore a violet glove on her arm. A screen with a slot was on it. "What's this?"

"A D-gauntlet? How many people are going to get one?" wondered Takato.

The Kuwagamon roared in anger, drawing the attention away from the new digimon and tamer.

"Leomon!"

"Right, Jeri." Leomon pulled out his sword and charged at the digimon.

"Let's go Salamon," said Dark Salamon. The dog digimon ran into battle.

"What's going on here?" asked Isis.

"Well, remember when I said that my friends and I met on strange circumstances?" Isis nodded. "We met in the digital world. We're all tamers."

"And I'm one too?"

"Yes."

"Time to help Leomon." Isis watched as Jeri pulled out a digimon card and swiped it through her D-arc. "Digi Modify! Speed activate!" Leomon became faster and attacked Kuwagamon repeatedly. It cried out in pain.

"Puppy Glare!"

"Black Glare!" The attacks had little effect on the champion. Kuwagamon grew irritated by their attempts and knocked them away.

"Oh no!"

"Slash a card! If you have digimon cards with you, then slash one!" declared Takato.

Isis nodded in understanding. She pulled out her deck from her pocket and searched through them until she found one she wanted. "Digi Modify! Power activate!" She slashed the card. Salamon and Dark Salamon got up and did their attacks again, this attempt having more success.

"Finish it, Leomon!" said Jeri.

"Fist of the Beast King!" roared Leomon. He struck Kuwagamon, turning him into tiny bits of data. The data vanished after a few minutes.

"You did great, Jeri," commented Takato.

Jeri blushed under the praise. "It was nothing."

"You did well too, Isis," said Ryo.

Isis sighed. "I can't believe this. I'm a tamer. And all your friends are tamers too?"

Ryo nodded.

"Looks like I can't be much of a loner anymore. Not that I really mind. The others are pretty nice. But Addy is kinda weird. Other then going on about anime, she kept asking me weird questions when I mentioned I was into digimon." A thought stuck her. "Hey, Ryo, do the digimon have any connection to that pink blob that was destroying everything in sight two years ago?"

"We gotta tell Yamaki to check that memory eraser thing of his," mumbled Takato.

"Yes, actually. You remember?" Isis nodded to Ryo.

"It's getting late," stated Leomon.

"Oh! I have to get home. I told my parents I would be back before dark." Jeri turned to leave with Leomon.

"I'll go with you," said Takato.

"Going home doesn't sound like a bad idea. Let's go Isis, Sal, and D."

"Sal?" wondered Salamon.

"D?" wondered Dark Salamon.

"Nicknames. I like them. Let's go, said Isis. The remaining Tamers left the area.

A girl with a rope of chestnut brown hair watched as the tamers left from around a tree. Brown eyes narrowed in thought behind glasses. Jen had entered the fog after she saw the two boys and girl enter. So she wouldn't be seen, she hid behind a tree. She could hardly believe what she saw. She needed to do more research. She knew who Ryo was. She needed to learn more about the others so she could find out why they were tamers.

She left her hiding place and headed in the direction the Leomon went with the boy and girl.

Next Time- One week after school starts a new student arrives in Addy and Zak's class. Zak sees this boy as a rivial (you'll find out why. digimon just isn't digimon with out rivailry). A bully starts to pick on some kids and the three decide to stop him (you'll never guess who the bully is). And just what are Ree and Josh up to? Who is Charlotte? That's next time in ch 6- Bullies and Rivialry (I may think of a better title).

The thing with Twisted Metal is sorta true. Sometimes Ly and I "play" the game. My friend Gina truely was shocked I liked TM. She thought I was little miss inocent.

ATTENTION!!! FRONTIER SHOWS WEEKDAYS AT 7:30 AND SUNDAYS AT 10:00. THEY WILL BE SHOWING THE EPISODES FROM THE BEGINING FRIDAY DEC 20! That is all.

Twisted Destiny by Firehedgehog

What would you do if your reality was twisted on a whim? What would you do if you're memories were changed? What would you do if everything seemed the same, but wasn't?

The tamers find that their world is different. They have their digimon. They saved the world. But Takato was not part of the adventure. In this world, takato's life fell apat when he was 5. His home and family were wiped out by digimon. He no longer cares for digimon, his love has turned into a deep hatred. Yet there is one digimon that he cares for. A strage blue digimon that had saved him.

Takato lives with Yamaki, the man that saved him from the digimon. He never was apart of Hypnos.

In this twisted world, Takato is no longer the dreamer. Will his hate for all digimon stop the tmaers from reuniting with him? And who is the blue digimon? Could it be other realities have been twisted too?
