Chapter 1

He opens his eye to see Calamon sitting on his crest. "Takato's up and getting breakfast ready!" Then he watches as Calamon hops onto his brother's crest and he groans. It's the last day for exams and then tonight, Takato, Calamon, Guilmon, Ken, Wormon, T.K., Patamon, Izzy, Tentomon, Henry, Terriermon, Ryo, Cyberdramon, Davis, Kage, Sky, Tommy, Takuya, J.P., Kouji, and him were going to go to different dimension tonight. The girls were going to have a girl's night and will be having the house with Nabiki. Ranma was visiting his mother and Kasumi was spending more time exploring Dire's dimension.

Without knowing where Soun and Genma were, and Akane still getting treatment for the steroids that were in her system, the whole house and Dojo had changed to accumulate the more guests. Another level had been adding as well as another wing. New bathroom was also added. Akane's room had changed and now it's the girl's room. The changes happened about a week after Takato done that spell. The money from the stuff Calamon's and Gatomon's were still coming in. There were also a new stuff toy; it was based on Tommy's human spirit. The only really big bill was the food one. Between growing teenagers and Digimon, it was amazing that there's any food left in the house.

As he gets dressed, he looks over to check on Takuya. Takuya had made it on the soccer ball team, the same one as Ken and Davis. They had tried to get Takato, Kouji, and him to join, but it didn't work out. Takato wasn't interested, Kouji was practicing kendo with Mrs. Saotome supervising him, and he like to play games on the Internet.

He yawns as he heads down stairs. Calamon was already going into J.P.'s and Tommy's room. He sees Rika and Renamon already up and talking with Kari and Zoe with Gatomon napping on Kari's left side. He notices that Kari's left hand was resting on Gatomon's back. He nods and checks to see if T.K. was helping Takato.

Takato shared a room with T.K. and Izzy. Davis shared a room with Ken and his two partners, along with Wormon, used the other bed. Ryo and Henry were in another room with Cyberdramon using the other bed. Ranma, Nabiki, and Kasumi each had their own rooms though. Calamon likes to change rooms each night, one night sleeping with the girl's, then the next with in with one of the others. The Digimon used the Dojo when they didn't want to wake up their partners when they stayed up late. Which was often, for Digimon didn't have to go to school or worry about sports practice.

He finds T.K. stirring batter for pancakes. "Anything else that needs to be done?" He asks Patamon's partner. "You could see if we're out of juice." T.K. says to him and he checks. He sees apple juice and guava juice, the apple juice was the most full and he picks both up. Setting them on the counter and when to look to see if he had enough clean glasses.

He then looks and see Takato coming into the kitchen as Drakemon. As T.K. and him watch, Takato became human in front of their eyes. "Guilmon and the others tried to play a practical joke. I think it was Terriermon's idea, so don't tell Henry just yet. I'll get the eggs ready, how the juice?" Takato ask, as he begins to take out a bowl and puts some eggs into the bowl. "We're good on apple juice, we have enough for breakfast. So, happy to see Lucemon again?" He tells Takato as he begins to take out plates and utensils. T.K. also begins to pour some of the batter onto a portable grill.

"So, do you think Dash, Cassandra, and Puck are alright?" T.K. asks as he finishes pouring the batter. "They're fine. They did make it to where Guyver left. They left about two days after checking out that lab. I hope Izzy's not too disappointed that they used that lab then finishing off that portal device. I can't wait to see Lucemon again. I kind of miss eating a cooked meat apple." Takato says as he cracks the eggs in that bowl. They continue their work in silents.

He couldn't help but agree with Takato, he also can't wait to show the others around his Digital World. That's where they're spending the night and maybe tomorrow night. He wonders how IceLeomon and Ranamon were getting along. He didn't know just what to make of that match, but if they like each other, then he wishes them luck.

Soon he could hear that everyone's up and in the expanded living room. He finishes getting everything out and then begins to set the table. His last exam's Math, he shared that class with Zoe, Rika, and Henry. Takato's final exam starts earlier, with Davis, Ken, T.K., and Ryo. He didn't know about the others. Everybody's become really good friends, and as Davis and Takuya keep pointing out, with no parents around they could do about anything they want. It's like going to university and living in dorms, just without parents visiting or phoning. He wonders just what the future holds.

---------------------------------------

He looks over at his best friend, Fenir, who's a Sangloupmon. Fenir and Fate ported out when the night that his cousin contacted him. He wonders just what the GL hopes to prove. The Stalkers have taken over Arth 24 two weeks ago and were close to having full control on Fovz 170. They're hold on Muzut 63 had been complete for about a month and a half now, and Hiros 12 and 87 were the first to become theirs two months ago, when he arrived with Mane and the rest of the army from the front line reality. Tayth 832 was now the official command post for the Stalkers. They now want to finish taking control of the worlds that they started on and then send out spies to gather information on which realities were ready to revolt.

He looks at the last base that was under GL control. It was nicked named Cattle Ranch. It got that nickname from the humans for all the bull and cow type Digimon that worked there. He looks over to look at Ray with his partner Oro, a RuneGabumon. Ray looks back at him and nods; he returns the nods to the fourteen year old. Then watches as Ray and Oro head to where the other human and Digimon were. It was because of the partnership between Digimon and humans that the Stalkers now controls the realities they do. Ray was in charge of group of humans and Digimon that were here to help. Most of the humans were between the ages of ten and fourteen.

He nods to Fenir and his friend heads for his unit. He turns to look at his unit and prays that nobody gets too hurt in this next battle. If he hadn't come to know Takato or the other Legendary Warriors, he might be nervous about trusting Ray and the other humans. Now he knew not to underestimate humans. He could also see that the partnership between the humans and Digimon were quit equal, they both get one common thing, that's a friend.

He signals his unit and they move forward, it's going to be a long day. It's just the morning, too. He knows that Fate was doing something important as well, he just hopes that she doesn't tip the Inu'Dor to what she's attempting though.

---------------------------------------

He looks over to where Rika walks with Zoe and Kari. He didn't mind that Rika and the girls weren't coming with them tonight. He knew that things between Rika and him were better then he ever dreamed possible and hopes that it'll last. He did want to introduce Rika to Lucemon, but knew that it'll be a while before that happens.

He looks over to Kouji and Kouichi, Kouichi was still wearing his Naruto necklace, he had one day decided to ask about it and found out more then enough about Naruto. It's not that he's not interested, it's that he didn't expect to sit there for about thirty minutes listening to Kouichi talk about some really odd things about this one character named Sasuke and how some people wanted Sasuke and this girl named Saruka to hook up and then Kouichi began to explain why Naruto should hook up with her instead. He didn't really know anything about the show, and therefore had no real opinion on who would make the better couple. He also made a note to himself not to talk to Kouichi when Kouichi had six cans of soda and eight chocolate bars.

He remembers just what kind of practical joke that Terriermon had planned on. If he didn't stop and think for a second just why he didn't see any lights on in the Dojo, he might have walked right into it. He had used a seeing spell to look into the Dojo and had seen the trap. He had to hand it to Terriermon, that dog Digimon did have a creative streak when it comes to pranks. He had promised not to tell Henry if Terriermon doesn't pull any pranks or practical jokes for this weekend. That in clues egging other Digimon into doing them in his stead.

He and the others have gotten use to him changing into Drakemon and back again. He continues to learn more spells and to get better at them. He even took Guilmon through the door that nobody else could see or open. He had spent time looking and drawing some of the stone statues. He even put them into different poses and had background to them. He remembers the first time Guilmon looked onto the stone statue that was Megidramon.

He leads Guilmon into the room with the twelve mega level Digimon statues. He watches as Guilmon looks at each and then walks over to the Megidramon statue. "What's this one called, Takatomon?" Guilmon asks him. He smiles sadly, "It's Megidramon." Guilmon looks at him, for his partner gave him a look that told him that he understands why he's sad. "It's not just your fault, Takato." Guilmon says to him. He nods and they both look at the statue one more time and then he leads Guilmon to the hallway that's at the base of Megidramon's statue.

He snaps out of his memories to find that they made it to school. He sighs and walks pass the gate. He soon finds the room for his final exam and hope that today goes fast, for he did want find something to give to Lucemon. The champion level angel had really trusted him and he hopes that he could find the right gift to give his new cousin.

(V)(V)(V)

It's afternoon and they all finish their last exam. They now had time to get in contact with Cassandra and Dash. They didn't know if Puck would stay by their side or not, so they're only hope was to talk to Cassandra and Dash or maybe Guyver's cousin Fate Dancer, commonly know as Fate.

She looks over at Takato was walking with Rika, they didn't seem to be talking but she knew that they didn't need to. She guesses that they just knew what they meant to each other. She remembers that Tommy told her and T.K. that one of the Legendary Warriors, the one for water had flirted with Takato. She didn't know if Takato told Rika or not, and plans to find out tonight.

She looks over to T.K., who's walking on her right. "What do you make of that? I would have thought that Rika and Takato wouldn't have been that close, you know? I kind of thought that Ryo would be going out with Rika by now. Goes to show what I know, huh?" T.K. says to her. She smiles and answers, "I think that they had enough time apart and they don't want to spend the time they have arguing. I think we're going to be doing some really important things soon and I think we should enjoy the peace while we have it. Plus, I think they don't know it, but they might be a couple for years to come. I wonder just how long before Zoe and Takuya become official though." She says to him as they walk.

They notice that Calamon being chased by a group of kids that seem to want to Calamon. Calamon sees Takato and flies towards him, as she and everyone watches the kids swarm Takato, asking to touch and hug Calamon. Takato looks around for an exit and then distracts the kids and makes a break for it with Calamon on his head. As they watch, Takato transforms into Drakemon and takes to the air. The kids look disappointed and then see a toy store and they run into the store, to look for walking Calamon toys.
