Eternal Conflict:

Amalgamation

Chapter 01: The Rebirth of the Chosen!

It's been three years since my brother Taichi, the other chosen, our digimon, and I returned from the Digital World. Many things have changed since then. I haven't seen Takeru in a year and a half. He went missing a year ago, after his mother died. I wonder where he is.

All of us chosen miss our digimon immensely...

But soon the Digital World is going to be in need of some chosen once again...


A brown haired girl was darting around her bedroom, seemingly looking for something. The girl also had chocolate brown eyes. Her hair went down to her shoulders. She was wearing a white and pink striped shirt, along with a yellow pair of shorts. A camera was hanging around her neck by a string, in addition to pink fingerless gloves that went up to her shoulders.

'Where is it?' The girl, Eleven-year-old Yagami Hikari, thought, looking for a certain object that held a ton of sentimental value to her. She was currently searching under her dresser. Her hands finally clasped around an octagonal device. "Finally found it!" The girl exclaimed, pulling her hand out from underneath her bed. The device was gray, with a LCD screen in the center. There were three buttons on it, one to the left side of the screen, and the other two to the right of said screen. In addition to that there was a small black antenna on the top-left side of the device, in addition to some strange symbols surrounding the screen on the device. There was a small clip on the back so the device could easily be stored on the hem of her shorts, which is where the girl placed it as she picked up a pink book bag from her beg and slung it over her shoulder.

Her family had moved into a bigger apartment the year before. Which as far as Hikari was concerned was a good thing, as she now got her own room. The only bad thing about it was that Hikari had to sleep in a futon as opposed to a bed, but in her opinion it was a fair trade off. As she exited her room, she turned towards the kitchen.

"I'm going to school now kaasan!" the brown haired girl shouted.

"Alright Hikari-chan, have fun!" Hikari's mother responded, before Hikari exited the door to her apartment. Hikari quickly turned around a corner and entered an elevator, seeing a girl with shoulder purple hair and a short brown haired boy already in there. Hikari already knew who these two people were. The girl with purple hair had brown eyes and glasses with round lenses on them. She was wearing a white tee shirt and red shorts, while the boy was wearing a long sleeved red shirt and blue pants.

"Aren't you going to be hot in that?" the girl, Inoue Miyako, asked. The boy turned around towards Miyako.

"Not at all Miyako-san." The boy, Hida Iori said. "It really seems cold enough out."

"Umm... Iori-kun..." Hikari trailed off as she entered the elevator. "It's May."

"Hello Hikari-san." Iori said, shrugging his shoulders. "I just never seem to get that hot, despite the temperatures. I don't understand it." Hikari just shook her head.

"Never mind Iori-kun." Hikari said, turning towards Miyako. "You want to come over after school Miyako-san?" Hikari asked kindly.

"I guess." Miyako said as the elevator doors closed and the elevator started moving. "I don't have anything planned. Although I would've thought you would want to hang out with Daisuke." Hikari sighed.

"Daisuke is a nice person, but really, he seems to be really interested in me a lot." Hikari said, almost as if she weren't actually paying attention to what she was saying. Neither Miyako nor Iori chose to comment Hikari not using an honorific with Daisuke's name. The elevator stopped after a few seconds and the door opened. All three occupants exited the elevator and planned to exit the apartment complex.

"HIKARI-CHAN!" A male voice cried out from the stairwell.

"Well, I'll be seeing you later 'Hikari-chan'!" Miyako shouted as she grabbed Iori and ran out the door, much to the younger child's protest. Hikari shook her head as a brown haired boy around her age ran up next to her. He was wearing a blue denim jacket over a red shirt, along with blue jeans. A pair of square shaped goggles were resting on his forehead.

"I'm glad I got here before you left Hikari-chan!" the boy exclaimed, not winded at all from his trip. "Wanna walk to school with me?" he asked, his voice desperate. Hikari nervously rubbed her head with her hand.

"Um... sure Daisuke-kun." Hikari answered nervously.


The room seemed to be completely covered in shadow. All that could be visible was gloved hands typing and a large computer monitor. The image on the monitor changed to that of a forest area, where a small orange dinosaur was walking around.

"And now it begins." A voice said, as the gloved hand pressed the enter key on the keyboard.


"Hey Agumon!" A small white cat-like creature exclaimed, running through a forest area, towards a small orange dinosaur creature. The cat creature had bluish fur on the tips of her ears and tail. The same color fur was also stripped around her tail. A gold ring was near the top of her tail. She also had some large yellow gloves with claws covering her front two paws, and walked upright on two legs. She had blue eyes.

The small orange dinosaur, which resembled a t-rex, turned around towards the cat's voice. "What is it Tailmon?" he asked, confused at why she was running towards him. When she got towards the orange dinosaur, she started panting, out of breath. "Are you okay?" Agumon asked, worried.

"I'm fine." Tailmon responded. "I'm just worried. First Patamon vanishes, and now those strange dark towers have appeared." The dinosaur had a puzzled look on his face.

"What strange dark towers?" the small dinosaur digimon asked. The cat got a look of annoyance on her face.

"You didn't notice the seventy-foot tower that appeared in that direction," Tailmon paused, pointing behind her. "That also is sending off dark energy?"

"Umm... yeah?" Agumon answered innocently. Tailmon slapped herself.

"I can't believe this." Tailmon remarked, before a large ape like creature with yellow fur stepped out of the shadows. A large bone was on his back, held on with a strap. The parts of his body that weren't covered in fur had blue skin. This included his paws and face. He stood up, using his two hind legs to stand. Various red markings were around his body. And last but not least, his eyes were glowing red and there was a strange black ring around the creature's neck. This was Hanumon.

"Under the orders of the Digimon Kaiser, You two must die!" Hanumon shouted, grabbing his large bone in his hands. "Bone Rod!" the ape shouted, bringing his bone down like a club. Both of the smaller digimon dodged the attack, the club causing a small indent to form in the ground from the impact. Red flames seemed to gather in Agumon's mouth.

"Baby Flame!" the small dinosaur shouted, sending a small fireball into Hanumon's chest. The fireball didn't do much damage to the ape, although it did knock him back.

Tailmon jumped high into the air, extending her leg as she fell towards the ape digimon. "Cat Kick!" Tailmon shouted as her paw connected with the creatures jaw, sending him flying into a tree, causing a loud CRACK sound as the tree broke in half before dissolving into black specks. The ape was knocked unconscious from the force of the collision.

Agumon looked over towards Tailmon with confusion in his eyes. "Who's the Digimon Kaiser?" he asked.

"I don't know." The adult level digimon replied. "Although I'm pretty sure that he's connected to those odd towers."

"BONE ROD!" Agumon and Tailmon ended up dodging an attack from behind them, turning around to see at least five Hanumon behind them. The two digimon did the only thing that would make sense.

They ran.

"SOMEBODY HELP US!" Agumon shouted, much to Tailmon's dismay.

In the confusion, Tailmon didn't notice that a small gold ring was embedded in the ground.


A teenage male with brown hair that spiked up in every direction paused as he was walking down a hall, a device similar to Hikari's beeping from inside his pocket. He was wearing a green suit and green pants, the uniform for the junior high school students in the building. This was Hikari's older brother, Yagami Taichi.

"Agumon?" Taichi asked faintly, before rushing into a room.

The room had many computers in it, although only one of them was powered up. There was a strange program running on it. As Taichi neared it, the screen glowed white, consuming the room. "What's going on!?" Taichi exclaimed, before the light consumed him. When the light disappeared, the eldest of the Yagami siblings was gone.


"What happened?" Taichi asked as he got up from the grassy ground. 'Wait, why was I laying on grass?' The eldest Yagami sibling asked himself, seeing a small T.V. like thing located near him. He looked around, seeing that he was in a forest, with strange plants. "Am I back in the digital world?"

His question was soon answered as two small creatures ran past him. "Agumon! Tailmon!" Taichi yelled, causing the two digimon to stop running.

"Taichi! You're here!" Agumon shouted, getting in front of his partner. "Quick! Evolve me into Greymon!"

"Why?" Taichi asked.

"BONE ROD!" A spinning bone spun around like a boomerang. Taichi and the digimon dodged as the group of Hanumon emerged from the forest, all of their eyes glowing red.

"For the Kaiser!" One of them shouted.

"That's why!" Tailmon exclaimed as Taichi grabbed his digivice.

"Alright!" Taichi said, trying to will his energy into his digivice, so it would be transferred to Agumon.

"Agumon Evolve!" Agumon shouted...

As nothing happened. The well-missed rush of energy from his partner to himself never came.

"What!" Agumon shouted in surprise, clearly awaiting the evolution into Greymon.

"Never mind! Run!" Tailmon shouted as the three beings started running away from the psycho apes.


Taichi was panting as the group entered a cave. They went as deep as they could, turning around to eye the entrance. After a few minutes, he asked, "Did we loose them?"

"I sure hope so." Tailmon said. Agumon looked towards his partner.

"Do you think you can contact the others?" the small orange dinosaur asked. Taichi looked over towards his partner.

"I can try." Taichi said as he pulled out a gray rectangular device. He flipped open the top of it and began typing a message.

To: IzumiKoushiro, YagamiHikari,

From: YagamiTaichi

I need you two to come to the Digital World immediately. We need help here!

Taichi closed the device and looked towards the back of the cave, seeing two oval-like objects in the center of a pedestal. The rest of the cave area was bare, the solid rock that made it up being the only other thing identifiable. The first was decorated with a fire-like pattern, and had a spike going through the top of it. The second one seemed to be something concealed by a pair of wings, with a peach-like coloring at the top of it. Apparently two furred feet were also coming out of the bottom.

"What are those things?" Taichi asked, looking towards Tailmon. The cat digimon looked towards the object.

"I have no idea." Tailmon said after a few seconds. She then noticed a symbol that seemed to be a circle with a circle inside it, with another circle inside that one, along with eight triangles going out from the outside ring of the symbol. "The Crest of Courage is the fire one!" Tailmon exclaimed. She then examined the second object, it seemed to have a symbol with a small filled circle, with eight diamond like symbols jetting out of it. "And the other one has the Crest of Light on it."

"Then maybe they're something that Hikari and I can use." Taichi stated as he moved towards the fire decorated object, grabbing it. The object started glowing red, before four different colored lights shot out of it and apparently through the ceiling of the cave.

"What happened?" Agumon asked, stating the question that was on his two companions minds.


It was the end of the last class, which Hikari was glad for, as school had pretty much been boring for her. Daisuke was walking around behind her.

"So, what clubs are you planning on joining?" Daisuke asked. Hikari looked over towards the brown haired child.

"I'm thinking about joining the Photography club." Hikari answered his question. Daisuke shook his head.

"I'm surprised that you don't seem to be interested in football." Daisuke said. "I mean, you're brother's completely obsessed by it."

"It's just not something that really interests me." Hikari stated honestly. "Besides, if I played football I wouldn't be able to sit through my brother's games. I'd be too tempted to join in."

"Really?" Daisuke asked, making a mental note to somehow get Hikari to start playing football.

Suddenly an older teenager boy runs near the two talking children. "Hikari-kun!" the teen exclaimed. He had red hair that was cut short. He held a piece of paper in his hand.

"What's wrong Koushiro-san?" Hikari asked politely, seeing as Koushiro wouldn't be here as he graduated from elementary school already. Izumi Koushiro handed Hikari the paper.

"Read this." He ordered, Hikari did so, and her eyes widened.

"Shit." Hikari uttered uncharacteristically. Daisuke looked over towards his brunette friend.

"Did you just curse?" he asked, a look of confusion etched on his face. Hikari ignored him as she and Koushiro started running towards said computer room. Daisuke sighed, before he quickly followed her.

Eventually he caught up with them, entering the computer room to hear the end of a conversation.

"I can't believe something's threatening the Digital World again." Hikari said.

"I know what you mean. All of that hard work we did to save it might be lost." Koushiro answered her.

"What are you two talking about?" Daisuke asked as he entered the room, seeing both Hikari and Koushiro holding a gray device.

"Daisuke!?" Hikari exclaimed in surprise. "What are you doing here?"

"Following you to find out why you ran like that." Daisuke answered her. "Now what's going on?"

Hikari looked away from him. "I can't tell you. Even if I did, there's no way you would believe me."

"Try me." Daisuke said, moving towards Hikari and moving her head to look at him in the eyes.

"Hikari. We don't have time to do this." Koushiro said, causing Hikari to remove Daisuke's hand from her face. "We have to get into the Digital World now."

"What's the Digital World?" Daisuke asked. Before either of the two chosen could answer the boy's question, (or lie about the answer, anyway) four lights, one blue, another pink, another red, and another yellow, shot out of the computer. The red and yellow lights shot out of the door, while the blue light shot into Daisuke's hand, and the pink light shot onto Hikari's digivice. This was the first time Daisuke got a really good look at the device that Hikari wore out in the open, and was confused when it started glowing pink. "What?" the brown haired child asked, more to himself than anyone else, as the light consumed the area around his hand.

Hikari grabbed her digivice, as concerned about what was happening to her digivice as Daisuke was confused about what was going on. Suddenly the digivice shifted its shape into an oval-like shape as the pink light faded away. It was white, with two pink handgrips at the sides of it. The screen was now located on the top half of the device, a black boarder around it. Two black buttons, one pointing up, and another pointing down, were on the side of the screen. A third white button was located in the center of the bottom half of the device. A black antenna was located on the top left side of the device.

Daisuke looked on in confusion at the device's transformation, and was even more confused when something materialized in his hand. Daisuke looked in his hand to see a device similar to Hikari's, except that its handgrips were dark blue instead of pink. Daisuke looked over the device, flipping it over, seeing a clip on it. "What's this?" Daisuke asked, showing the device to the other two in the room.

"He got a digivice!" Koushiro exclaimed in disbelief. Hikari looked over towards the computer.

"I don't care about who else has a digivice right now!" Hikari exclaimed, pointing the device at the computer. "I'm going to go help Oniichan and Tailmon." Suddenly the computer and digivice shot out white light, as Hikari was sucked into the computer screen. When the light disappeared, the brown haired girl was gone.

"Where did she go?" Daisuke asked, obviously completely confused.

"She went into the Digital World." Koushiro answered simply, looking Daisuke in the eyes. "Are you going to follow her using your digivice?" he asked. Daisuke snorted.

"That's a stupid question." The brown-haired child answered, pointing his digivice towards the computer as he too was sucked into the digital world. Koushiro grabbed his digivice, getting ready to go into the Digital World, before the door to the computer lab opened.

"What's going on in here!? And what are these?" a young girl's voice shouted. Koushiro turned around and saw Miyako and Iori in the doorway, each of them holding up a digivice of their own.

This isn't my day. Koushiro thought, preparing for the barrage of questions that would surely be coming his way.


The trip into the digital world was about as crazy as Hikari remembered. The bright multi colored lights were shooting off in every direction imaginable. And this might have sounded crazy, but Hikari could've sworn that she heard Daisuke groan in agony behind her.

And soon, it was all over, Hikari came out of the portal, landing feet first in the center of a forest. She moved forward and looked around. Eventually her eyes came across a large black tower shooting off into the sky. "That's new." She remarked, before looking down at her digivice, pressing the up arrow. Eventually the display screen showed the word 'Evolve'. Hikari pressed the center button, getting an error message. She then pressed the device's arrow button again. The world 'Detect' appeared next. Pressing the confirm button, a map grid appeared on the digivice's screen, a single gray dot appearing far from a pink one, which Hikari assumed was her. Suddenly a blue dot appeared behind her as the portal that she came from began glowing. Hikari turned around to see Daisuke come crashing out of the TV portal, groaning in annoyance as he brought himself up. 'So I did hear Daisuke behind me.' Hikari thought. "Are you alright Daisuke-kun?" Hikari asked, before she noticed something... Daisuke was wearing a different set of clothes than he wore on Earth. Hikari quickly looked over herself, seeing that she was wearing the same thing that she was wearing on Earth. Considering this was the digital world, Hikari didn't put much thought into how the clothes got there, but what her friend was wearing.

Daisuke was still wearing the goggles that he had on Earth, although they now seemed to be tinted red. He was now wearing a blue sleeveless vest decorated with a flame pattern at the bottom of it. He was also wearing a black sleeveless shirt, and black shorts. Daisuke looked over towards her. "I'll be okay." He said, before noticing that Hikari was looking towards his chest oddly. 'What's wrong with her?' he asked himself, following her gaze, before he gasped, noticing his different attire. "Did this happen because of the Digital World?"

"Apparently." Hikari answered, looking at her digivice. "We should get going and find Oniichan." Daisuke seemed to be asking a question. "Yes, he's here. I see him on my Digivice's map." Daisuke then seemed to want to ask another question. "Press the up arrow twice and then you press the white button." Daisuke did so and map appeared, showing a blue dot, with a pink dot near it, and a gray dot farther away from the two dots.

"Can you read my mind or something?" Daisuke asked. Hikari sighed, as she started moving.

"No," She answered. "You're questions just were really obvious. Now come on... we don't want to run into any digimon before we find Taichi and Tailmon."

"Who's Tailmon?" Daisuke asked. "And what's a digimon."

"Digimon is short for Digital Monster, the type of beings that live in the Digital World. Tailmon is my digimon partner. She mostly fights... and kills on my behalf." Hikari answered, her voice getting solemn as she said the last part.

"But you never would want someone dead!" Daisuke protested, as the two children kept moving.

"There's a lot you don't know about me Daisuke." Hikari answered in the same solemn tone.

"Am I going to have a digimon partner as well?" Daisuke asked.

"I would hope so... I definitely wouldn't want to go against any digimon above the child level without one." The girl answered.

"Child level?" Daisuke asked. Hikari laughed, forgetting that he knew absolutely nothing about the digital world.

"I'll explain a digimon's evolution levels later. Right now we need keep watching our surroundings to make sure a digimon doesn't sneak up on us." Hikari said. "We wouldn't want any evil digimon to try to kill us before we get to save this world, would we?" She asked rhetorically. Daisuke knew not to respond to that question.


Eventually the twosome came across the cave that Taichi was hiding in without incident. As they entered Hikari was tackled by a white blur.

"Hikari!" a female voice called out.

"Tailmon!" Hikari exclaimed as the small cat digimon jumped into Hikari's arms. "I thought something might have happened to you!"

"I'm so glad you're safe!" Tailmon exclaimed. Hikari then got a look at Tailmon's tail, noticing that the cat digimon's holy ring was missing.

"Why? There's nothing out there." Daisuke said. Tailmon turned her head towards the brown haired boy.

"Hikari, who's he?" the small cat digimon asked.

"He's a friend of mine, and apparently another chosen." Hikari answered. "What's going on? And what happened to your holy ring?" This caused Tailmon to frantically look back at her tail, cursing once she realized that her ring was somehow removed.

"I believe I can answer that Hikari." Taichi said as he emerged from the back of the cave.

"Oniichan!" Hikari exclaimed. "What do you need help with?" Hikari asked.

"Apparently there's a new enemy for us to fight." Taichi said, before he saw Daisuke, confusion appearing on his face. "Why's Daisuke here?"

"He's another chosen now." Hikari stated. Suddenly Agumon came up behind his partner.

"Has he met his partner yet?" Agumon asked. Daisuke looked over towards the small orange dinosaur.

"Who are you?" Daisuke asked. Agumon looked over towards him.

"I'm Taichi's digimon partner Agumon." Agumon responded.

"Alright then, so who are we fighting?" Daisuke asked. Tailmon jumped out of Hikari's arms and looked over towards him.

"Apparently our enemy is a human who entered the Digital World. I've heard rumors that a human proclaiming has been going around and enslaving the digital world." Tailmon answered. "But I didn't believe them... until now."

"Another human? Why would a human come here to take over the world?" Hikari asked. "And why exactly are you guys hiding in a cave? Agumon should've been able to take care of anything by evolving into Greymon."

"I can't." Agumon said, confusing Hikari.

"What do you mean you can't?" she asked, standing up.

"Apparently this 'Digimon Kaiser' has some type of Dark Digivice that blocks a digimon's ability to evolve." Taichi said. "He also put up some type of black towers all over the digital world. I assume that's what spreads the Dark Digivice's signal."

"Then how are we supposed to fight against him?" Daisuke asked. Taichi sighed.

"I don't know." Taichi answered. "He also has some kind of mind control device called the Evil Rings. They apparently take over a digimon's mind and force them to do whatever the Kaiser wishes."

"But if our digimon can't evolve, how can we fight? Tailmon's the only Adult level any chosen have that can maintain that form indefinitely." Hikari waited for an answer, before Tailmon noticed Hikari's digivice.

"What happened to you digivice Hikari?" Tailmon asked. Hikari looked over to it.

"My digivice changed when a weird pink light shot out a computer. Daisuke-kun also got his when a blue light came out of it and hit his hand." Hikari answered, before Daisuke showed his digivice to the others.

"Did you mention blue and pink lights?" Agumon asked. "Was there a red and a yellow light as well?"

"Yeah, why?" Daisuke asked.

"I think I know where they came from. Follow me." And with that, the child digimon ran off towards the back of the cave.

The three humans and one adult digimon followed Agumon, wondering what he was looking at, before coming across the strange objects that Taichi found earlier. "What are they?" Hikari asked, noticing the symbols on each of the objects.

"I don't know." Agumon responded. "But when Taichi touched the red one, those four lights we were talking about shot out of it. Taichi already tried lifting both of them, but they didn't move."

"So what should we do?" Daisuke asked Hikari. "Should we try grabbing them?"

"I don't know if it will work." Hikari stated.

Those are the Digimentals of Courage and Light. A mysterious voice said in all five beings minds.

"Who's there!?" Taichi demanded.

That doesn't matter right now. The voice said. Yagami Hikari, Motomiya Daisuke... go claim your digimentals.

"What do you mean 'Our digimentals'?" Daisuke asked.

Hikari's is the one with the crest of light. Yours is the one with the crest of courage.

"What?" Daisuke asked, confused.

...The fire decorated one. The voice seemed to be speaking in an annoyed tone.

Daisuke turned towards Hikari. "Should we listen to this mysterious ominous voice?" Daisuke asked. Hikari grinned.

"I don't see why we shouldn't." Hikari said, before both she and Daisuke moved towards the strange objects.

"Do you think this is safe?" Agumon asked his partner as Tailmon followed Hikari.

"Do we really have a choice?" Taichi asked in return. Agumon was just silent.

Hikari lifted the white digimental up easily. She looked towards the place where the digimental was located, noticing a small indention where it was placed.

"I don't see where we're going with this." Daisuke said, grabbing the Digimental of Courage. As he lifted it up a bluish pillar of light shout out of the area where the digimental used to be. "What's going on!?" Daisuke exclaimed as a shape began to form. Eventually the light faded, revealing a blue lizard. It seemed to have two arms and legs, in addition to a blue tail. His arms were crossed over his chest. His belly and face were white, while the rest of his body was blue. His head also had a gold 'v' symbol around the center of his eyes. His eyes were red and the back of his head ended with two appendages, giving the top of his head a 'V' shaped look.

The creature then stretched and uncrossed his arms, landing on the pedestal. He then eyed Daisuke.

"So you finally showed up Daisuke." The creature said. Daisuke looked over at him confused.

"How do you know my name?" Daisuke asked.

"I'm your partner!" the creature shouted, jumping off the pedestal a little energetically. Daisuke looked over at the energetic digimon oddly.

"Really?" he asked. "That was kind of convenient. What's your name?"

"The name's V-Mon!" the small blue lizard replied. Before anyone could say anything else, the ground began to shake as a large creature burst through the cave wall. The creature moved on all fours, and had yellow rock-like skin. It's back seemed to be hidden under a protective area of spikes. It also had a tail. A black ring was clasped around its leg.

"What's that?" Daisuke asked, instinctively grabbing the digimental.

"That's a Tortomon!" Hikari shouted. Suddenly the Tortomon came running towards them.

"GROUND DASH!" the creature shouted as he picked up speed. Agumon's eyes widened at this point.

"Run!" Agumon shouted, he and Taichi turning around and running out of the cave, Tortomon crashing though and destroying the entrance.

Use the digimentals. That mysterious voice said after a few minutes of running.

"That's good advice... but how are they supposed to do that!?" Tailmon shouted in rage, while Taichi tried to evolve Agumon again getting the same result as earlier.

"Damn it!" Taichi shouted.

Use the activation phrase 'Digimental Up!'

"...Activation phrase." Hikari said dismayed, as she and the other's kept running from the rampaging tortoise thing. Suddenly the spines on Tortomon's back shot off towards the ground in front of the group, blocking their path of escape... or rather, stopping them from crashing into a Dark Tower that they had somehow gotten to.

'We ran that far?' Hikari thought to herself.

"Can this get any worse!?" Daisuke shouted, turning around to meet what was certain to be his demise.

Use the activation phrase damn it!

"You might as well Daisuke... if you don't we're probably all dead." V-mon said, getting ready to fight against Tortomon.

"What do you think Tailmon?" Hikari asked, grabbing her digivice. The cat digimon got into a fighting stance.

"I'm fine with that." Tailmon said. Both Daisuke and Hikari looked up at each other, nodding before lifting their digimentals up into the air.

"Digimental Up!" both children shouted as the two sent out a blast of light, before transforming into two different colored beams, the Digimental of Courage turning red, while the Digimental of Light turned white, before shooting off towards their respective digimon.

The red beam of light collided with V-mon, consuming him in a sphere of light. "V-mon Armor Evolve!" V-Mon shouted as the sphere of light began glowing brighter. Eventually the sphere exploded, revealing a new digimon in V-mon's place. The new digimon was humanoid and still had V-mon's blue and white skin. He was around two meters tall. He was now wearing a red helmet with a large blade coming out of the forehead area, with two holes for his eyes. The helmet had a flame pattern on it. The new dragon was also wearing a breast-plate, two gloves that each had three metal claws coming out of them, two shin pads, and two foot guards with the metal blades coming out of them as well. All of these pieces of armor had the flame pattern on them. "Burning with courage, Fladramon!" the new digimon shouted, his evolution complete.

The white beam of light collided with Tailmon, consuming her in a sphere of light. "Tailmon Armor Evolve!" Tailmon shouted, the sphere of light glowing brighter. Eventually the sphere exploded, revealing a new digimon in her place. The creature was three meters long and the same height as Fladramon. The new digimon was a large cat-like digimon, standing on all fours. She still had Tailmon's stripped tail, although it was obviously much bigger now. She also still had Tailmon's 'gloves' on here front paws. Her head seemed to be completely blocked by a silver and gold sphinx-like mask of some kind, fixing one expression on the cats face. She also wore silver armor at her torso area, and seemed to wear gauntlets on her front legs, with two red jewels in the center. Two large feathered wings came out of this digimon's back. "The Light of Smiles, Nefertimon!" the digimon that had been Tailmon shouted out, her evolution complete.

The two new armor level digimon looked over towards the Tortomon, who just glared at the two new armor digimon.

"...Wow." Daisuke muttered out, staring in awe at the new form that his digimon had just taken. "Is that you V-mon?" Daisuke asked.

"Call me Fladramon now." Fladramon answered in a deeper, not to mention more serious voice, than his previous form. He then turned his head towards Nefertimon. "Why don't we teach this guy a lesson on manners?" Suddenly Fladramon jumped up in the air, pulling his arm back. Flames seemed to gather around the armor digimon's cocked fist, before Fladramon thrust it forward. "Knuckle Fire!" the fire around the digimon's arm shot off towards Tortomon, nailing him in the back, although the fire seemingly did nothing to the hard-shelled beast.

"Why didn't that do anything?" Daisuke asked as Fladramon landed. Nefertimon suddenly flew up into the air and started circling the area above Tortomon. Suddenly a large stone tablet materialized above Nefertimon, before it was launched by an invisible force towards Tortomon's head. "Rosetta Stone!" The stone tablet collided with Tortomon, shattering into many pieces.

This just seemed to aggravate Tortomon, who growled, as the rock areas of his back seemed to grow at impossible speeds. "Shell Phalanx!" The rock spikes on Tortomon's back shot off towards Fladramon, knocking him back into a tree.

"Fladramon!" Daisuke shouted worriedly, while Agumon eyed the tortoise's leg. Fire seemed to gather in Agumon's mouth. "Baby Flame!" Suddenly Agumon spit the fire towards Tortomon, the attack grazing the black ring on his leg, doing no damage.

Tortomon turned towards Agumon, diverting his attention from the two armor level digimon around him.

"Rosetta Stone!" Nefertimon fired off another tablet towards Tortomon, doing the same damage that she did before. However Fladramon was able to move away from the ruined tree at this point. He pulled his fist back again, while Tortomon fired off more of his spikes towards the flying sphinx.

"Knuckle Fire!" thrusting his arm forward again, Fladramon fired his attack at the creature's head, causing the Tortomon to grunt in pain, once again turning his head towards Fladramon.

"Ground Dash!" Tortomon charged towards Fladramon, who jump up in the air to dodge the adult level digimon's attack.

"...They aren't doing so well." Taichi remarked, looked over towards the battle, seeing Fladramon attempt to use his Knuckle Fire attack again, while Nefertimon kept firing off those tablets towards Tortomon, the attacks not seeming to do anything.

"It's because of Tortomon's shell." Hikari said. "It's making our digimon's attacks useless. Most of Fladramon's fireballs are small. If Agumon could become Greymon..." Hikari trailed off.

"Wait... didn't Taichi-sempai say that the black towers sent the Dark Digivice's signal that blocked evolution?" Daisuke asked.

"What's your point Daisuke?" Taichi asked.

"So why don't we have Fladramon and Tailmon destroy it?" he asked. Hikari glanced over at him for a second. Taichi looked over towards his sister.

"Hikari, have Nefertimon attack the Dark Tower!" Taichi exclaimed. Hikari was quick of oblige.

"Nefertimon! Destroy the Dark Tower!" Hikari shouted. Nefertimon fired one of her stone tablets towards the base of it, causing many cracks to appear in its side.

The three humans and Agumon moved away from the tower. "Keep Tortomon busy Fladramon!" Daisuke ordered.

"Sure... leave the hard job to the newbie." Fladramon mumbled, charging towards Tortomon, before jumping out of the way as Tortomon snapped at Fladramon with his jaw. Tortomon then swiped at the airborne Fladramon with his tail.

Fladramon dodged the swipe and landed on the ground before jumping up into the air again. Suddenly a huge amount of fire appeared around him, fitting around his form almost like a constant burning second skin. The armor digimon extended his body, before speeding towards Tortomon. "Fire Rocket!"

Fladramon hit the adult level digimon in the back, causing his opponent to cringe in pain. Fladramon quickly jumped back as Tortomon tried to swipe the fire digimon with his tail again.

"...How many attacks does a digimon usually have?" Daisuke asked.

"Digimon usually only have two attacks, although a few do have more." Taichi answered watching as Nefertimon sent another two tablets into the side of the Dark Tower. More cracks appeared in the tower.

"Finish off that tower Nefertimon!" Hikari shouted.

Suddenly the eyes on Nefertimon's mask started glowing pink. "Curse of Queen!" Two pink eye lasers shot out of the armor digimon's eyes going through the black tower, causing it to shatter into many pieces.

Taichi grabbed his digivice as Agumon jumped in front of the group.

"Your turn Agumon!" Taichi exclaimed, his digivice shooting out white light.

Agumon began to glow. "Agumon Evolve!" Suddenly Agumon's form became larger as the light faded away. In Agumon's place was a large three-meter tall and two meter wide dinosaur. His skin was orange with blue stripes going down most of his torso and tail. His body was muscular, and the top of his skull was brown. "Greymon!"

"Wow..." Daisuke looked over towards the newly evolved adult digimon, his eyes wide.

Tortomon looked over towards the newly evolved digimon, before his eyes stopped glowing red. The Tortomon blinked. "Where am I?" Tortomon asked.

"...Did we just win?" Fladramon turned towards Nefertimon, who just landed.

"I guess." The sphinx digimon replied, as confused as the others by what was going on.


A monitor showed this display on screen. A figure concealed by the shadows frowned.

"How did they manage to figure out how to remove my control so easily?" the figure asked himself. The figure pressed a button on the keyboard, bringing up a picture of a middle-aged man with long purple hair. The man's skin was pale, and he seemed to be wearing a trench coat.

"Well... Kaiser, I didn't expect you to contact me so soon." The man responded. "What seems to be the problem?"

"I'm pissed off now Oikawa." The Kaiser answered. "I thought you said that only I and my two former allies could use the Digimentals!"

"...That was a year ago. Who knows what the Harmonious Ones have changed?" Oikawa answered. "Why do you ask?"

"Two chosen have appeared. Yagami Hikari and a new chosen named Motomiya Daisuke. Both the Digimentals of Light and Courage have been used to Armor Evolve." This statement caused Oikawa's eyes to widen.

"This is not good." Oikawa said after a few seconds. "I'm doing the best that I can here, but I'm counting on you to finish up our plans in the Digital World." And with that, the image on the screen vanished.

The Kaiser sat in thought. 'Truthfully, it doesn't really matter that two chosen can use Armor Evolution. Besides, only one other person actually used a digimental. All I have to do is put guards around the remaining digimentals.' The figure then pushed a button, and an image of a large room appeared on the screen, and golden object in the center of the room connected to a reactor.


After the Tortomon left, Greymon turned towards Taichi. "Should I stay in this form for a while?" he asked.

"It would be a better idea." Taichi said. "We wouldn't want you to be defenseless once I leave for the day."

"So... how does Fladramon change back?" Daisuke asked. As he said that, Fladramon and Nefertimon started glowing the colors of their respective digimentals, before two colored beams of energy shot out from the digimon. The orange beam from Fladramon shot into Daisuke's digivice while the pink beam from Nefertimon shot out into Hikari's. Both armored digimon soon shrank, until they were once again V-Mon and Tailmon. Suddenly a beam of energy shot out of the two chosen's digivices into their other hands, a silver rectangle shaped device, exactly the same that Taichi used earlier to contact the group, formed. Daisuke flipped open the cover, seeing an oval picture with the Crest of Courage on it. Hikari found herself with a similar image, only with the Crest of Light.

"...That was odd." Tailmon said. Hikari looked over towards her partner.

"How so? It was like when you normally evolve, right?" Hikari asked. Tailmon shook her head.

"For some reason I don't feel drained at all." Tailmon said.

Daisuke looked over towards his partner. "So what do we do now?" V-mon just shrugged his shoulders.

"You three should be getting back." Greymon said. Taichi looked like he was about to protest. "I'll be fine." Greymon said before Taichi could say anything.

"So you're leaving then?" V-mon asked sadly. Daisuke looked dejected.

"I guess so. But I'll probably be back tomorrow." Daisuke said.

It would be a better idea for all of you to take your digimon with you.

"Why?" Hikari asked, getting annoyed by this voice's random appearance. "And who are you?"

That is not important. The Kaiser has probably already realized the destruction of the Dark Tower, not to mention two Armor Evolutions. You aren't ready to take out the Kaiser yet.

"How do you know that?" Daisuke asked.

You should meet up with the other two new chosen who were called. The voice continued, ignoring Daisuke. Once the time is right, you'll be able to go after the Kaiser. There isn't much that I can tell you now.

"Who is this Kaiser anyway!?" Greymon asked. "And if we leave this area alone, the Kaiser will just recapture it!"

He'll do that anyway. It's more important to secure as many chosen digimon as possible. Now go, before the Kaiser comes back here with his minions.

"We better listen you guys." Taichi said. "We obviously aren't going to get any answers from him." And with that, Greymon devolved into Agumon and the group headed back towards the portal to earth.


"Let me see if I got this right Izumi-sempai..." Miyako trailed off. "You're saying that we're basically going to have to save the world against some evil force threatening against two worlds, one of them made up from the internet, populated by monsters?" She asked, in obvious sarcasm.

"Basically." Koushiro said, shrugging. Iori shook his head.

"I'm sorry Izumi-san." Iori began. "But I really can't believe you." Suddenly the computer screen blazed with white light as six shapes fell out of the screen in a tangled mess. Miyako and Iori were sure that they saw Hikari, Daisuke, and Hikari's brother Taichi, but there was a strange white cat there, in addition to a small pink head with red eyes and long ears. Although Miyako and Iori didn't know it yet, that was Koromon, Agumon's Baby II stage form. They also saw a small blue and white lizard thing. This was Chibimon, V-mon's Baby II form. Eventually the six beings got out of the tangled mess that they were in, and Daisuke looked over towards V-Mon.

"What happened to you?" he asked.

"I devolved." The small creature said innocently. Miyako and Iori looked over towards the small creature, the older of the two with her mouth hanging open. Koushiro looked over towards Miyako.

"Believe me now?"

End Chapter 01

And now it should be really obvious that this is going to be different.

I'll just tell you now that the mysterious voice is not from an original character.

The suffixes at the end of a name are used to show respect. Taichi doesn't use them for anyone, and the only ones that Daisuke uses are '-chan' for Hikari and '-sempai' for Taichi.

Both goggle heads are among the rudest characters in digimon.
