Digimon: Digital Monsters
Season 5

Fullmetal Saiyan: Greetings, citizens of the Earth! This is my first multi-chaptered fanfic, so it might be a little shaky. However, I have done and seen enough to know that every fic needs a disclaimer, so I'll keep it simple: I do not own digimon in any way, shape or form, although if I did, I would have put all the couples that everyone thought were gonna get together in the actual series. Like Tai and Sora, for example. She ended up with Matt. MATT! How stupid is that! Sorry, kinda got off topic there. All the human characters are mine, though. Anyway, as all of you fellow anime freaks and digimon watchers know, every season of digimon is narrated by a character from the previous season. To that end, I've called in my good friend Tommy Himi (AKA Kumamon, Legendary Warrior of Ice) from Season 4 to narrate my homemade Season 5. Take a bow, Tommy!

Tommy: Hi, Everybody! It's great to be here! Thanks for having me! I heard from Davis and Rika that this is a really fun job!

FMS: What? How did you talk to…? Ahh, well. It's not important. Why don't you start off the story for us! Let's not waste anymore time! Take it away, Tommy!

Tommy: You got it! (Starts a film reel)

Episode 1: Game, Set...?

Eight-year-old Sarah Lawson looked up suddenly from her dolls as she heard the apartment door slam. She knew perfectly well it was her older brother, Brendon Bradley, but she still couldn't help but look up whenever she heard a sound. Brendon was a twelve-year-old with bronze skin, dark brown eyes, a messy mop of brown hair and a face full of freckles. He was short for his age and was often teased for it, but what he lacked in stature, he made up for in courage and physical strength. Sarah was a cute little girl with curly brown hair who shared her brother's freckles but not his complexion. Brendon raced past her room and down the hall and Sarah heard the sounds of the computer booting up. She poked her head out of her bedroom door.

"Brendon?" she asked. She heard the keys on the computer clacking.

"Yeah?" he called back. The small girl walked down the hall to her brother's room.

"What are you doing?" Sarah inquired as she stood in the doorway. Brendon didn't look away from the screen.

"I'm logging on to the Matrix," he replied. Sarah went over to his side to stare at the screen and squealed.

"Ohh! I like the Matrix!" she exclaimed. Brendon sighed and rolled his eyes. He had shown his little sister the Matrix Trilogy when she was four and she wanted to be like Trinity ever since. Not surprising, since Brendon wanted to be like Morpheus, at least in the way he dressed. In Brendon's opinion, Morpheus wore the coolest shades known to man.

"Not that Matrix, Sarah. It's the name of a private server I made on the V-Net for me and my friends. I'm supposed to be meeting them in a few minutes."

"Are you going to play a game?" she asked. Brendon nodded. She did likewise.

"Can I play?" she asked, making her brown eyes big and sparkly.

Well, let's see. Who's gonna be there? Brendon thought. There's me, Jeremy, Cody, Amber, Nathan, Jen, Tal. I guess she can come along.

"Sure, little sis," he said patting her on the head, running his fingers thru the brown curls. "Why not?"

Sarah smiled broadly. Brendon pulled out two visors.

"Now Sarah, you put this on your ear, and this over your eyes," he instructed, "and you put the microphone near your mouth so we can hear you when you talk."

"Okay," she chirped back. Brendon then tapped a few keys on the keyboard in front of them.

"Are you ready?" he asked, his hand suspended over the enter key. Sarah nodded eagerly.

"Here we go!" he shouted and tapped the button. A flash of bright white light filled their eyes and they felt their bodies tingle. A black screen with green scrolling code appeared before them. In white letters it said: What will you do? Underneath was a text box. Brendon typed: Gaming Arena. The computer responded with a chime similar to the buzzing of the computer from Star Trek: TNG and sent them to a rather bland, box like room. Inside were six people talking to each other.

"Brendon, who are they?" Sarah asked. Before Brendon could answer the talking had stopped.

"EEEK! Is that your little sister, Brendon?" a female voice squealed. Brendon winced.

"Yes, it is, Jen," he sighed.

"She's so cute!" Jen said. "She has your freckles!"

Sarah blinked a few times.

"But unlike Captain Conceit over there," said Amber, "she doesn't look like she spends every day in a tanning booth."

"Who are they?" she repeated.

"You remember my friends, Sarah," Brendon replied, "Their digital representations are almost identical to the way they look, so, the tall, really tan boy with black hair and eyes is Nathan Soffio. An honor student, a bit of a dork, but he's cool. The girl with blonde hair and green eyes is Jen Schiller. Major ditz, but we love her. The taller girl with the brown hair and eyes is Amber Coker, our resident anime authority. The short boy with brown hair is Tal Schechter, the biggest computer geek you could ever hope to meet. The pale kid with blonde hair and blue eyes is Jeremy Harris, the self-proclaimed definition of cool, and the little guy that looks like him is his brother, Cody."

"Um, Brendon?" Sarah whispered. "Why is someone named Tal so short?" Tal groaned and dropped to the floor (the classic anime action known as a facevault) while everyone else broke into fits of laughter.

"Tal is his middle name, Sarah," Brendon explained, wiping tears from his eyes.

"Well, then what's his first name?" Sarah asked.

"It's…" Brendon started but couldn't get another syllable out as Tal tackled him to the ground.

"No tell-o my name-o," Tal said.

"What's his problem?" Nathan asked.

"Tal doesn't like his first name," Brendon groaned underneath Tal.

"Well, we can't play Taiketsu with Sarah around, now can we?" Amber huffed. Tal shook his head and shrugged. Taiketsu was an interactive fighting game that the older kids really enjoyed but didn't let the younger kids play.

"We wouldn't have been able to anyway, since Jeremy brought Cody. What about a game of acroball?" he suggested. The others nodded in agreement.

"Four on each team," Jeremy said, "Brendon and I will be captains."

"Alright, then acroball it is," Tal said.

"Acroball options screen activated," the computer said. Sarah nudged her brother nervously as the surrounding area began to change.

"What's 'acroball?'" she asked.

"It's a computer game, it's sort of like a combination of volleyball and soccer," Brendon replied, "It's easy, you'll like it."

"State the name of the teams' captains," the computer said.

"Jeremy and Brendon," Tal said.

"Jeremy, state your team," the machine said after it processed the information it was given.

"Nathan, Cody and Jen," Jeremy replied.

"Pick your team's acroball jersey," the computer said bringing up several different outfits. Jen surveyed each outfit.

"Pick the black and orange one, it's cool," she said in a low, deep voice and narrowing her eyes. Jeremy blushed and stammered.

"Whatever you say," he said goofily as he picked the jersey suggested. Brendon sighed with embarrassment. Jeremy was Brendon's best friend, and even though Brendon was the only one Jeremy had told, it was obvious to everyone that, A) Jeremy liked Jen; and B) when Jen wanted something from Jeremy, he was like putty in her hands. WhatJeremyknew, that everyone else didn't, was that Brendon felt the same about Amber.

"Jeremy's team is ready," the computer said, "Brendon, state your team."

"Sarah, Amber and Tal," Brendon replied.

"Pick your team's acroball jersey."

Brendon turned to Sarah.

"I'll let you choose. I really don't have a favorite," he said. Sarah mulled over the choices for a few moments.

"The purple and gold one," she said.

"Brendon's team is ready. What arena will you play in?"

"The Sphere arena," Brendon said. The environment was changed to a large, round room, and everyone was floating around the center.

"Are you ready to play?"

"Yes!" everyone answered at once. The top of the sphere opened and a small orb descended toward them. It was glowing and it didn't look like the standard game ball.

"Something's not right," Tal said, "I think it's a virus, everyone abort the game."

"The geek knows best," Brendon said. "Everybody out!" The group started typing furiously on their keyboards at home.

"It won't let me!" Nathan cried, "I tried every system override I know!"

"Same here," Jen added, "OK, time for last ditch. Take off your visors."

Everyone did as suggested. After they took off their visors, each child gazed about their surroundings. They were still inside the game. They stared at each other in horror.

"We're still here," Cody said. Sarah grabbed Brendon's arm.

"Is this part of the game, Brendon?" she asked fearfully. Brendon shook his head without looking down at her, a sweatdrop appearing on his forehead.

"No," he replied through clenched teeth. "It's not."

The orb came to a halt in the center of the arena. It then began to glow brighter and draw everyone toward it.

"We still have the acroball jerseys on!" Jeremy said, "Get away from the ball!"

Before they could even react, a shockwave rushed out from the orb. Sarah was crying at this point.

"I can't move!" she cried. They were drawn suddenly into the orb and everything went black.


Sarah woke up in a forest, wearing a yellow shirt and pink shorts. She gazed at her surroundings. There were ferns, bushes and trees, but no Brendon. She slowly got up and took a deep breath.

"Brendon!" she called. No answer.

"Brendon!" she called again. Still no answer. She wandered around for a little while.

"Brendon, where are you?" the young girl cried. She heard a rustling in the bushes behind her. The young girl spun around quickly.

"Well, I don't know what a Brendon is, but how about a Nyaromon?" a voice said.

"Who are you?" she asked.

"I'm Nyaromon silly!" a yellow ball of fur said, "And you're Sarah!"

It blinked its fuchsia eyes curiously and twitched its cat ears.

"You're exactly how I pictured you!" Nyaromon said as it jumped into Sarah's arms.

"How do you know me...Nya...Nyar—"

"Nyaromon. You're my Chosen Child!" it said happily.

"Well, let's go find Brendon, okay, Nyaromon!" Sarah said petting Nyaromon's head. It didn't take long for them to find Amber who was carrying a small, pink, feather covered blob.

"Sarah! I'm so glad I found you," she said. She was wearing a yellow sleeveless shirt with a helmet, a pair of pink gloves and a pair of jeans.

"Have you seen anyone else?" Sarah asked the older girl.

"Yeah, Jen and Nathan are with me," she said pointing behind her. Sure enough, Jen was not far behind wearing a pink cowgirl's outfit and Nathan was wearing horn-rimmed glasses and a sweater vest with a button down shirt, and a pair of khaki shorts. Jen was carrying a small leaf-like creature and a grey, seal-like creature was following Nathan.

"Are you guys Chosen Children too?" Sarah inquired turning to Amber.

"You bet!" the pink blob in her arms replied, "I'm Yokomon!"

"And I'm Tanemon!" the leaf creature cried from Jen's arms.

"I'm Bukamon," the seal creature said as it latched on to Nathan's arm. Nathan tried desperately to shake it off. The girls giggled as Nathan continued to struggle with Bukamon.

"Sarah!" a voice called in the distance. Sarah turned to see Brendon, Cody, Jeremy and Tal headed their way, each followed by a small monster.

"Hi, guys!" Jen called to them. When they got closer, Tal gave Jen and Amber a strange look.

"Well, you two actually look stranger than usual," he said bluntly. The girls' heads had quadrupled in size as they were about to explode with anger (another typical anime action), when Sarah started to laugh uncontrollably. The monsters had all converged on her.

"They're so cute, what are they?" she asked.

"We're Digimon!" the creatures chorused. "Digital Monsters!"

"Digimon, from the anime..."Amber gasped, "But that would mean we're..."

"In the Digital world," a voice said. All eight children turned. It seemed to be a holographic projection of…

"Genaii?" the six elder children said at once. The young man in the white robe smiled and cocked his head slightly.

"The one and only!"
