Authoress Note: And so it begins........the evil of me not updating frequently. *Sighs* Oh well....this chapter is gonna be a little short, I'm sorry to say...but the next chapter is when everything picks up and the action starts....I suppose I could have something happen..but it really wouldn't work for what I'm trying to do. You guys will LOVE the next chapter though....I may even shift a little of chapter four into chapter three just so its not so short. We'll have to see.
Major apologies for the screw up. I was thinking Lynxmon, and I put Allomon....possibly because I was watching a MV and I saw Allomon fighting. I can't remember..anyways...yah....I meant to put Lynxmon.
I don't think I need to put the legend up anytime soon and I put the ages up last time so yah...I should probably get on with the fic eh?
Chapter 3 - Taking it slow
*~*~*~*~*Digidestined Realm, Western Quadrant, Real World*~*~*~*~*
Takuya sighed and glanced at his D-Scanner. It had beeped at him earlier and then gone back to its normal staticy screen. He was beginning to wonder if maybe he was missing something because it had happened about an hour after the little incident in the park.
Takuya groaned and got up from the couch where he had been sitting to answer the phone. It had rung five times before he finally reached it and picked it up to answer who ever was calling.
"Hello?" Takuya said, not really caring who it was. He just wanted to get back to the couch so he could figure out what the heck was going on with his D-Scanner. The things didn't just beep for nothing.
"Takuya, it's Kouji. Everyone has gotten a message from Orphanimon to meet up at Shabuya Station and take the elavator down to the Real World Station. So I'm just calling to make sure we all meet before so no one is late and misses the Trailmon" Kouji said all in a rush.
"Whoa! What are you talking about?! I never got any message from Orphanimon! Though my D-Scanner was acting strange earlier....." Takuya muttered the last bit to himself, though since he was on the phone Kouji still heard him.
"....Never mind. Just meet us at the station before you get on the elavator!" Kouji said and hung up.
Takuya growled and hung the phone up. Great, now what was he supposed to do? Kouji never said what time they were supposed to meet up! He went and grabbed his hat and pulled it and his goggles on before running out of the door. Hopefully whatever it was wouldn't take to long and his Mom wouldn't notice that he had gone.
As he ran down the streets he thought back to the first time he had done this. Takuya chuckled a little as he remembered the first time he had met Bokomon and Neemon at the Fire Station in the Digital World
Takuya continued to run down the streets and to Shabuya Station. He reached the nearest station and pulled some money from his pockets to buy a ticket. He was glad he had enough money to buy a ticket this time. The first time he had been lucky and he had gotten a free one somehow.
Ten minutes later he got off of the train on was at Shabuya Station. Now that he was there he had the time to try and think of where the others would be. Kouji hadn't said where they would meet up at the Station and Shabuya was one of the larger ones so they could be anywhere. Takuya grumbled to himself and decided that if they were going to meet up somewhere it would probably be on the first floor where they had all gotten off at when they had first returned from the Digital World.
As Takuya made his way over to the elavators he thought he heard a familair voice.
"Koiji! You're such and idiot! How could you forget to tell him WHERE to meet us?! Now he's probably wanderivng around the Station looking for us!"
Takuya broke into a jog and turned the corner to see an odd sight. Zoe was yelling at Kouji and Kouji was cringing and trying to hide behind his twin Kouichi.
Takuya waited for a few minutes but none of his friends noticed him so he decided to make himself noticed. He walked up behind Zoe who was still yelling at Kouji to tap her on the shoulder.
"Leave me alone Takuya! I'm busy yelling at Kouji for being stupid and not telling you where to meet us!" Zoe shouted at him.
Takuya blinked and took a step back. Maybe that wasn't the smartest idea he had ever had. Zoe stopped mid rant when she realised that Takuya had found them.
"Oh...hehehe...Hi Takuya! I guess you found us, eh?" Zoe said sheepishly and blushed a little when she looked around and saw that people were staring at her. Her shouting had attracted quite the crowd.
"Yah, it wasn't that hard" Takuya said with a small laugh that died when Zoe glared at him.
"Well since we're all here we should get going. What ever Orphanimon wanted, it sounded urgent" JP said and pressed the button to call the elavator for them.
They all were silent as they waited for the elavator. None of them had expected this and they all had things to think about as the stepped on the elavator and let it take them down, far past where it should have stopped and to the Real World Station.
They all stepped out of the elavator and took in a sight that they had all missed. It was the place that they had all first met. All of the tracks but one were empty. The one that wasn't held an old friend that they had all missed. It was Trailmon, the one that had taken them to the Digital World for the first time and the one that Takuya had raced with. It was WormTrailmon.
"Hey! How's it going?" Takuya called to his old friend and ran over to stand next to the giant locomotive digimon.
"Not bad, but I got orders to get you six to Fire Station as fast as I can! And we all know that I'M the fastest Trailmon in the Digiworld!" Worm said proudly. Takuya laughed and got on the only compartment hooked up. The others jumped on to after saying their hello's to WormTrailmon.
The doors slid shut with a hiss and everyone was thrown back a little when WormTrailmon raced out of the Real World Station. The six Western Digidestined sat down on the seats closest to them and watched everything pass them.
"It hasn't really been all that long has it?" JP said, speaking up as he looked at his cell phone. He wanted to be looking at it to see it change when they reached the Digital World.
"Not really, but I bet lots of time has passed in the Digital World. Remember when we got back? Not even ten minutes had passed!" Kouichi reminded everyone. Kouji was sitting next to his twin and staring out the window as his friends talked.
"Yah....hey Takuya! Look! We're about to pass though and into the Digital World!" Tommy said excitedly and pointed to the drop that would bring them to the Digital World. Everyone gave the drop a nervous glance and tightened their hold onto the seats. It wasn't likely that holding onto the seats would save them from a nasty ride but they were willing to try if it saved them a few bruises.
"Everybody hold on!" Takuya shouted as they were thrown from their seats. Its didn't do much good and they were all soon in a pile at the center of the compartment. The ride straightened out as they neared the Fire Station and everyone groaned as they got up. At least they had saved themselves a few bruises......
WormTrailmon pulled into the Fire Station with a screech as the brakes were applied and anyone who had been unfortunate enough to be standing at the time went flying. For example, JP.
JP peeled himself off of the wall with a curse and glared at the wall. Why was it always him?!
The doors flew open and they all got off quickly before Worm could throw them off like he had done the first time. They all stretched and pulled out their cell phones which had transformed into their D-Scanners when they had passed into the Digital World.
"Takuya! Kouji! It is good to see you all!" Someone said and the six Digidestined turned to see two more old friends.
"Hey Bokomon, Neemon. What are you guys doing here?" Kouji said as they all gathered together.
"We are here on official business from Orphanimon! We are to bring you to the Sovereigns Castle and make sure that you board the proper Trailmon!" Bokomon said importantly and puffed out his chest a little.
"Really? Cool! So how long until the next Trailmon comes?" Tommy asked.
"Uh...we are not sure" Bokomon said and everyone sighed.
"Then how do we know when we're supposed to go?" Takuya asked, speaking up for the first time in a little while.
"We will know because a specific Trailmon is picking us up. He doesn't usually make runs.......and almost no Digimon has seen him before! It will be quite exciting to meet him!" Bokomon said exctiedly and took out his little book to show them what he knew of the Trailmon that would soon be picking them up.
"Which Trailmon is that? I haven't heard anyone talk about him before!" Zoe said curiously as she studied the picture that Bokomon had flipped to.
"This is DarkTrailmon, and he is veeeery mysterious" Bokomon said and closed the book with a snap and placed it back to where it had been before.
"Oh, DarkTrailmon? Cool, I've met him before" Takuya said when Bokomon mentioned the name of the digimon. He hadn't seen the picture so he couldn't recognize the Trailmon.
"Wow! You've met him?!" Bokomon gushed and tried to pry information out of Takuya. This continued on and on while they all waited for the Trailmon that would be taking them to the Sovereigns Castle.
*~*~*~*~*Unknown Location*~*~*~*~*
A young man of 18 paced relentlessly as he watched some of his more devious plans unfold. Unfortunately it was taking to long and he was not a patient man.
He ran a hand through his spiky dark blue hair and growled quietly to himself as he stopped his pacing and just stared at the large viewing mirror that he used to make sure his orders were being followed.
He was currently using the Chaos and confusion in the world to his advantage. Unlike the other Digidestined and everyone else who had participated in his little fight, he had not forgotten anything. He remembered exactly what happened and he now had an advantage over all of them. He knew what forms the Digidestined chuldrens partners would take and who would be best to fight against them.
He moved away from the mirror and began to make his way down a long corridor. Since the twenty years had not passed he no longer had his magnificent Floating Crystal Fortress. He was opperating out of a large underground base, hidden deep in the Digital World of the Eastern Quadrant.
He turned left and went into the large room that was in front of him.
In the center of the room lay the only piece of technology that he would ever need.
It was a gargantuan orb made of some sort of clear glass or crystal and inside of it data swirled in a storm of colours. The room itself had no roof and data was constantly streaming in through the large hole in the ceiling created for the purpose of allowing the data to flow in and become trapped in the orb.
The young blue haired man was only after certain data and it was taking a long time to gather it all, but he had been after the old data for so long that he almost had all of it. Save the data of one digimon. The Sovereign had managed to gather his data before the blue haired man and had kept him from a very powerful ally.
He would soon be able to unleash his wrath upon those who stood in his way.
Soon.......soon he would have his beloved back at his side....
*~*~*~*~*Digidestined Realm, Eastern Quadrant, Real World*~*~*~*~*
Tai sighed wearily as he trudged up the stairs to his apartment. The elevator wasn't working so he had to take the stairs. Why oh why did it have to break just as he got there? Couldn't it have waited until he was at least half way to his house and off before breaking down? But noooooooo it had to break JUST as he was about to get on. Damned elevator.........
Tai opened the door with one arm and stepped in closing the door softly behind him. He let his partner down from his other arm and promptly collapsed on the floor to stare unblinkingly at the ceiling. You would think that after all the soccer he played, a few stairs would be nothing. Maybe it was because he was carrying a few extra pounds even though Koromon wayed next to nothing. Its not like he had been forced to carry Agumon.....if that had been the case he probably wouldn't have made it past the second flight of stairs.
When Kari came out from her room the first thing she saw was Koromon eating an apple. The seond thing she noticed was Tai. He was back from Ken's house and sprawled across the floor, right in front of the door.
"Hey Tai! Guess what? We got a message from GenAI telling us to meet him in the Digiworld! I was about to go out and get you, but since you're here we can leave!" Kari said cheerfully and pulled her brother up from the floor and began to drag him in the general direction of the computer.
"So what's this all about anyway Kari?" Tai asked as Kari began calling up the program that would allow them to enter the Digital World.
"Kari and the others all got an Email from GenAI telling them to meet up at Primary Village. It didn't really say anything except that Azulongmon would be there to talk to us. I think something bad must have happened for the Sovereign to contact us" Gatomon said from her perch beside the computer.
"The others should be there by now so lets get a move on Tai!" Kari said and shifted the computer screen a litte and took a step back so that she was standing beside Tai and Koromon. Gatomon hopped down and stood beside her partner.
"I hope it doesn't have anything to do with us...." Tai whispered to Koromon who had hopped up into Tai's arms once again. Kari had taken out her D-3 and was ready to open the portal.
"Digiport open!" Kari commanded and the portal opened up and pulled in the two Digidestined and their digimon partners.
*~*~*~*~*Digidestined Realm, Eastern Quadrant, Digital World*~*~*~*~*
Tai pulled himself up off of the ground. He somehow always managed to NOT land on his feet. Maybe it was just his luck...
"What took you guys so long?" Matt asked with a smirk. He lived closer to Ken than Tai so he and T.K had been one of the first ones to arrive at Primary Village.
".........." Tai just glared at Matt. His glare had gotten a bit better, he had watched Rika carefully it seems.
"Whatever, GenAI is talking with Elecmon and Azulongmon will be here soon" Matt said and walked away from the others, Gabumon following slowly behind. Tsunomon and Koromon had digivolved back to their rookie forms when they had crossed over into the Digital World.
The Digidestined fanned out and played with the young digimon while they waited for the large dragon digimon to appear. Elecmon was talking with T.K about some of the older but still young digimon who had been newly hatched when T.K first arrived at Primary Village.
The Digidestined looked up to the sky when they heard a clap of thunder. The skys had darkened with storm clouds and Elecmon began to usher all of the baby digimon into the buildings so that they wouldn't get wet. They all helped bring the young digimon in, including GenAI.
There was another loud rumble of thunder as the storm seemed to get worse even though it hadn't started to rain yet.
A wind picked up as the clouds seemed to sweep lower to the ground. A bolt of lightning blinded everyone momentarily and when they all looked back to where the lightning had connected with the ground there was a being that hadn't been there before.
Azulongmon.
The Sovereign dragon had settled on the ground and the storm clouds cleared away to leave a clear sky once again.
"Azulongmon!" Davis greeted happily as the Digidestined and GenAI gathered in front of the massive dragon.
"Hello young one" Azulongmon greeted Davis with a nod and turned so that he could look at all of the Digidestined at once. Azulongmon held back a sigh. They were all so young.....it was so much for children to be doing, the burden of protecting the world and standing up to things grown men and women shouldn't be faced with.
Elecmon was now standing next to GenAi and he was holding two digieggs carefully in his arms. One was black with grey stripes along the sides and the other was a light yellow colour with little orange swirls all over.
"I see that everything went well" GenAi said and took the two eggs from Elecmon, carefully carrying them as he walked over to stand beside Azulongmon while he watched the Digidestined who hadn't moved or spoken.
"I have a something to tell you all. Something has happened but I believe it is beyond even all of your combinded strengths. However you are the only ones that can fight. I shall tell you all I know in hopes that it will aid you. Long ago, there were the Original Digidestined. The very first humans to come to the Digital World. They were each partnered with a digimon and the eight of them fought bravely against all that was thrown at them. Unfortunately during the last battle, one of the children was killed and their closest friend went insane at their death. His name is Kage and he has never left the Digital World. I beleive he is the one behind the trouble that has started to arise in the Digital World. The problems haven't escalated to anything that you as Digidestined could fix, however I wanted you to all be prepared for when things get out of hand" Azulongmon said and watched the mixed reactions of the children before him. Most of them were confused, but four of them had a strange look. They looked like they knew of what he was speaking and carried an understanding that the other eight did not.
"Kage is after these two digieggs. We need you to care for them until they hatch.One is someone you know, and the other is a young girls partner. Since the girl can not take the egg herself we need you to look after it for her until the problems at Azulongmon's Temple are fixed and we can send the egg to her" GenAI said as he walked over to the Digidestined and placed the yellow egg in Tai's arms and the black in Ken's arms.
"Why does Kage want these eggs?" Ken asked as he carefully cradled the egg in his arms.
"We....do not know yet. I only ask that you take care of them in the Real World. It's best if they stay there were Kage can not get them. If there is a need for you to go to the Digital World, GenAI will contact you. Please do not come to the Digital World unless it is a dire emergency" Azulongmon said as clouds began to form around him and hide his body from sight. The clouds moved and when they were thin enough to see through the Digidestined could see that Azulongmon was gone.
The Digidestined were silent as what they were told soaked in. They had just been told that they were not to set foot in what to them was their second home. They were in shock. The digimon were devasted. It didn't matter to them that there was a reason they were asked not to come to the Digital World, what mattered to them was that they were essentially banned from seeing their home.
"I guess we should start heading back, huh?" Davis said quietly and the others nodded, not really feeling like speaking.
The twenty-four of them marched silently towards the T.V that would bring them back to the human world and close the promise that they had made with Azulongmon.
*~*~*~*~*Tamers Realm, Southern Quadrant, Real World*~*~*~*~*
Takato sighed happily and glanced upwards to the evening sky. The sun was just beginning to set, and beginning to paint the sky in a kaleidoscope of colours. He and his partners had just finished having supper and they were all pleasntly full. It was the perfect evening, sitting out of the balcony with his partners and just relaxing.
Except something was bothering him, making him restless. He needed to get out on his feet and walk around. Maybe that would help. Takato got up from where he had been sitting and opened the patio door to step into his room.
"Where you goin?" Impmon asked lazily from his spot on the roof.
"I dunno, I'm kinda restless and I was thinking of going for a walk. Do you guys want to come with me?" Takato asked his partners. It was starting to get late so not many people would be out milling about the park.
Guilmon looked down from the sky to blink curiously at Takato before saying a quiet no and going back to watching the sky change colours.
"I guess I should go with ya, I mean you need someone to protect you and if Pine-Apple head isn't gonna do it I guess its gotta be me" Impmon said and leapt down from the roof and stepped inside. Takato closed the door, leaving it open and inch so Guilmon could get inside easily if he got cold or bored of watching the sky.
Takato and Impmon were in the park and the sun was still setting. It was a little cool but just pleasantly so. This was what he needed, Takato thought. The peace and quiet but he had needed to be moving.
It's to bad Takato's peace and quiet was interuptedby an explosion of light and fog.
"It's a Digital Field!" Takato shouted and pulled his goggles down so he could see easly through the fog that not surrounded him and his partner. Takato grabbed his D-Arc, ready for whatever came through. A patch of the fog cleared revealing the digimon that had managed bio-emerge into the Real World.
"Floramon?! This sweet little digimon will show you just what it can do with its Rain of Pollen and Stamen Rope attacks!" Takato said, reading off what his D-Arc projected for him.
"A rookie?! A rookie managed to get through to the real world?! That's just sad!" Impmon shouted angrily as he fumed the Floramon get ready to attack. Just a bit more data and Floramon could digivolve!
"Rain of Pollen!" Floramon shouted and threw her arms forward, allowing the pollen to fly out at Impmon. Impmon however, had beaten much stronger digimon in his rookie form so he easily dodged the pathetic attack.
"Stamen Rope!" Floramon shouted out, this time a little more desperate to hit her target. The rope whips slammed down on the spot where Impmon had been a few seconds ago. The sidewalk pavement cracked under the pressure of the attack and Impmon got fed up with the weakling.
"Inferno Funnel!" Impmon said, summoning a giant fireball that smacked into Floramon, knocking her down and lighting her stamen ropes on fire.
"AH! AH! AH! Put it out, put it out, put it out!" Floramon screamed frantically while she waved her arms around trying to put out the flames.
"Uh......Impmon...maybe you should help her?" Takato suggested as he pulled out a card and got ready to slash it.
"She attacked me first!" Impmon protested, but he WAS starting to get sick of the Floramon's screams for help.
"Impmon!" Takato shouted.
"Fine, fine! Swipe already!" Impmon said and got ready for whatever Takato was about do.
"Digimodify! Hydro Pressure Activate!" Takato shouted as he slide the card through the slot for Impmon. The card glowed with power as Takato brought it back to hold carefully while he watched his second partner use the power of the card.
"Let's see what this'll do! Hydro Pressure!" Impmon shouted and summoned a huge glob of water. Its raised from the ground much like his fireball and splattered into Floramon, putting out the flames.
"Oh my gosh! Thank you!" Floramon cried out and promptly glomped Impmon.
"ACK! Get off me!" Impmon squawked and pried himself free of the overly friendly Floramon.
"I'm SO sorry I attacked you! How can I make it up to you?" Floramon asked and once again tried to hug Impmon.
"Stop hugging me for one!" Impmon shouted and pulled out of her grasp.
"Okay!" Floramon chirped and stood beside Impmon happily waiting for him to tell her what he wanted he to do.
"I think it would be best if you just stayed in the park. Maybe tomorrow you can look for a partner" Takato suggested as the fog from the Digital Field began to fade into nothing.
"A.....P....pa..partner?" Floramon stuttered, her eyes widening at the thought.
"Uh...yah?" Takato replied shakily.
"That would be amazing! That's what every digimon dreams of! Having a partner to help make them stronger!" Floramon said dreamily and started to daydream about having a partner all her own.
"Come on, we know a place you can stay for the night where no one will bother you" Takato said and snapped the Floramon out of her daydream.
"Really? How come you guys are being so nice? No one in the Digiworld would EVER do something like this! It would just be easier to delete them and take their data!" Floramon said, suddenly slightly suspiscious.
"I guess thats just the way we are. And we aren't in the Digiworld, this is the Real World" Takato said and Impmon nodded while the two began to slowly make their way to Guilmon's old hide out so Floramon couls stay there the night.
"Wow! I still can't believe I managed to make it to the Real World!" Floramon whispered to herself as she followed the two guys around the park. The three of the stopped in front of the damaged old shed.
"Eh...sorry its in such bad shape but my partner Guilmon was a little over enthusiastic when he lived here. Oh! And be careful of the portal down the right tunnel! It goes back to the Digital World!" Takato said, warning her of the portal and anything else that could be potentially dangerous.
"Thanks for letting me stay here!" Floramon said and waved good bye as Takato and Impmon left to go home.
Takato and Impmon were halfway home when something else happened.
The sidewalk and everything in front of them wavered, like looking through a wave of intense heat.
Everything began to fizzle and meld together.
"Impmon, what the heck is going on?!" Takato asked as everything began to swirl together and fizzle. It felt like he was spinning around and around.
"Like I'm supposed to know?! Ugh! I think I'm gonna be sick!" Impmon groaned and held his stoamch as the world around them continued to spin and swirl and fizzle uncontrollably.
"Impmon....." Takato called out to his partner, just as he collapsed.
"Takato!" Impmon shouted out, his worry overcoming his nausea. Everything seemed to be closing in on him as he managed to stagger over to the collapsed boy before he to collapsed, unconscious.
Since they were unconscious they weren't able to witness the strange phenomenon that would be the beginning of theirs and everyone else greatest adventure.

Chapter 3 - Taking it slow
*~*~*~*~*Digidestined Realm, Western Quadrant, Real World*~*~*~*~*
Takuya sighed and glanced at his D-Scanner. It had beeped at him earlier and then gone back to its normal staticy screen. He was beginning to wonder if maybe he was missing something because it had happened about an hour after the little incident in the park.
Takuya groaned and got up from the couch where he had been sitting to answer the phone. It had rung five times before he finally reached it and picked it up to answer who ever was calling.
"Hello?" Takuya said, not really caring who it was. He just wanted to get back to the couch so he could figure out what the heck was going on with his D-Scanner. The things didn't just beep for nothing.
"Takuya, it's Kouji. Everyone has gotten a message from Orphanimon to meet up at Shabuya Station and take the elavator down to the Real World Station. So I'm just calling to make sure we all meet before so no one is late and misses the Trailmon" Kouji said all in a rush.
"Whoa! What are you talking about?! I never got any message from Orphanimon! Though my D-Scanner was acting strange earlier....." Takuya muttered the last bit to himself, though since he was on the phone Kouji still heard him.
"....Never mind. Just meet us at the station before you get on the elavator!" Kouji said and hung up.
Takuya growled and hung the phone up. Great, now what was he supposed to do? Kouji never said what time they were supposed to meet up! He went and grabbed his hat and pulled it and his goggles on before running out of the door. Hopefully whatever it was wouldn't take to long and his Mom wouldn't notice that he had gone.
As he ran down the streets he thought back to the first time he had done this. Takuya chuckled a little as he remembered the first time he had met Bokomon and Neemon at the Fire Station in the Digital World
Takuya continued to run down the streets and to Shabuya Station. He reached the nearest station and pulled some money from his pockets to buy a ticket. He was glad he had enough money to buy a ticket this time. The first time he had been lucky and he had gotten a free one somehow.
Ten minutes later he got off of the train on was at Shabuya Station. Now that he was there he had the time to try and think of where the others would be. Kouji hadn't said where they would meet up at the Station and Shabuya was one of the larger ones so they could be anywhere. Takuya grumbled to himself and decided that if they were going to meet up somewhere it would probably be on the first floor where they had all gotten off at when they had first returned from the Digital World.
As Takuya made his way over to the elavators he thought he heard a familair voice.
"Koiji! You're such and idiot! How could you forget to tell him WHERE to meet us?! Now he's probably wanderivng around the Station looking for us!"
Takuya broke into a jog and turned the corner to see an odd sight. Zoe was yelling at Kouji and Kouji was cringing and trying to hide behind his twin Kouichi.
Takuya waited for a few minutes but none of his friends noticed him so he decided to make himself noticed. He walked up behind Zoe who was still yelling at Kouji to tap her on the shoulder.
"Leave me alone Takuya! I'm busy yelling at Kouji for being stupid and not telling you where to meet us!" Zoe shouted at him.
Takuya blinked and took a step back. Maybe that wasn't the smartest idea he had ever had. Zoe stopped mid rant when she realised that Takuya had found them.
"Oh...hehehe...Hi Takuya! I guess you found us, eh?" Zoe said sheepishly and blushed a little when she looked around and saw that people were staring at her. Her shouting had attracted quite the crowd.
"Yah, it wasn't that hard" Takuya said with a small laugh that died when Zoe glared at him.
"Well since we're all here we should get going. What ever Orphanimon wanted, it sounded urgent" JP said and pressed the button to call the elavator for them.
They all were silent as they waited for the elavator. None of them had expected this and they all had things to think about as the stepped on the elavator and let it take them down, far past where it should have stopped and to the Real World Station.
They all stepped out of the elavator and took in a sight that they had all missed. It was the place that they had all first met. All of the tracks but one were empty. The one that wasn't held an old friend that they had all missed. It was Trailmon, the one that had taken them to the Digital World for the first time and the one that Takuya had raced with. It was WormTrailmon.
"Hey! How's it going?" Takuya called to his old friend and ran over to stand next to the giant locomotive digimon.
"Not bad, but I got orders to get you six to Fire Station as fast as I can! And we all know that I'M the fastest Trailmon in the Digiworld!" Worm said proudly. Takuya laughed and got on the only compartment hooked up. The others jumped on to after saying their hello's to WormTrailmon.
The doors slid shut with a hiss and everyone was thrown back a little when WormTrailmon raced out of the Real World Station. The six Western Digidestined sat down on the seats closest to them and watched everything pass them.
"It hasn't really been all that long has it?" JP said, speaking up as he looked at his cell phone. He wanted to be looking at it to see it change when they reached the Digital World.
"Not really, but I bet lots of time has passed in the Digital World. Remember when we got back? Not even ten minutes had passed!" Kouichi reminded everyone. Kouji was sitting next to his twin and staring out the window as his friends talked.
"Yah....hey Takuya! Look! We're about to pass though and into the Digital World!" Tommy said excitedly and pointed to the drop that would bring them to the Digital World. Everyone gave the drop a nervous glance and tightened their hold onto the seats. It wasn't likely that holding onto the seats would save them from a nasty ride but they were willing to try if it saved them a few bruises.
"Everybody hold on!" Takuya shouted as they were thrown from their seats. Its didn't do much good and they were all soon in a pile at the center of the compartment. The ride straightened out as they neared the Fire Station and everyone groaned as they got up. At least they had saved themselves a few bruises......
WormTrailmon pulled into the Fire Station with a screech as the brakes were applied and anyone who had been unfortunate enough to be standing at the time went flying. For example, JP.
JP peeled himself off of the wall with a curse and glared at the wall. Why was it always him?!
The doors flew open and they all got off quickly before Worm could throw them off like he had done the first time. They all stretched and pulled out their cell phones which had transformed into their D-Scanners when they had passed into the Digital World.
"Takuya! Kouji! It is good to see you all!" Someone said and the six Digidestined turned to see two more old friends.
"Hey Bokomon, Neemon. What are you guys doing here?" Kouji said as they all gathered together.
"We are here on official business from Orphanimon! We are to bring you to the Sovereigns Castle and make sure that you board the proper Trailmon!" Bokomon said importantly and puffed out his chest a little.
"Really? Cool! So how long until the next Trailmon comes?" Tommy asked.
"Uh...we are not sure" Bokomon said and everyone sighed.
"Then how do we know when we're supposed to go?" Takuya asked, speaking up for the first time in a little while.
"We will know because a specific Trailmon is picking us up. He doesn't usually make runs.......and almost no Digimon has seen him before! It will be quite exciting to meet him!" Bokomon said exctiedly and took out his little book to show them what he knew of the Trailmon that would soon be picking them up.
"Which Trailmon is that? I haven't heard anyone talk about him before!" Zoe said curiously as she studied the picture that Bokomon had flipped to.
"This is DarkTrailmon, and he is veeeery mysterious" Bokomon said and closed the book with a snap and placed it back to where it had been before.
"Oh, DarkTrailmon? Cool, I've met him before" Takuya said when Bokomon mentioned the name of the digimon. He hadn't seen the picture so he couldn't recognize the Trailmon.
"Wow! You've met him?!" Bokomon gushed and tried to pry information out of Takuya. This continued on and on while they all waited for the Trailmon that would be taking them to the Sovereigns Castle.
*~*~*~*~*Unknown Location*~*~*~*~*
A young man of 18 paced relentlessly as he watched some of his more devious plans unfold. Unfortunately it was taking to long and he was not a patient man.
He ran a hand through his spiky dark blue hair and growled quietly to himself as he stopped his pacing and just stared at the large viewing mirror that he used to make sure his orders were being followed.
He was currently using the Chaos and confusion in the world to his advantage. Unlike the other Digidestined and everyone else who had participated in his little fight, he had not forgotten anything. He remembered exactly what happened and he now had an advantage over all of them. He knew what forms the Digidestined chuldrens partners would take and who would be best to fight against them.
He moved away from the mirror and began to make his way down a long corridor. Since the twenty years had not passed he no longer had his magnificent Floating Crystal Fortress. He was opperating out of a large underground base, hidden deep in the Digital World of the Eastern Quadrant.
He turned left and went into the large room that was in front of him.
In the center of the room lay the only piece of technology that he would ever need.
It was a gargantuan orb made of some sort of clear glass or crystal and inside of it data swirled in a storm of colours. The room itself had no roof and data was constantly streaming in through the large hole in the ceiling created for the purpose of allowing the data to flow in and become trapped in the orb.
The young blue haired man was only after certain data and it was taking a long time to gather it all, but he had been after the old data for so long that he almost had all of it. Save the data of one digimon. The Sovereign had managed to gather his data before the blue haired man and had kept him from a very powerful ally.
He would soon be able to unleash his wrath upon those who stood in his way.
Soon.......soon he would have his beloved back at his side....
*~*~*~*~*Digidestined Realm, Eastern Quadrant, Real World*~*~*~*~*
Tai sighed wearily as he trudged up the stairs to his apartment. The elevator wasn't working so he had to take the stairs. Why oh why did it have to break just as he got there? Couldn't it have waited until he was at least half way to his house and off before breaking down? But noooooooo it had to break JUST as he was about to get on. Damned elevator.........
Tai opened the door with one arm and stepped in closing the door softly behind him. He let his partner down from his other arm and promptly collapsed on the floor to stare unblinkingly at the ceiling. You would think that after all the soccer he played, a few stairs would be nothing. Maybe it was because he was carrying a few extra pounds even though Koromon wayed next to nothing. Its not like he had been forced to carry Agumon.....if that had been the case he probably wouldn't have made it past the second flight of stairs.
When Kari came out from her room the first thing she saw was Koromon eating an apple. The seond thing she noticed was Tai. He was back from Ken's house and sprawled across the floor, right in front of the door.
"Hey Tai! Guess what? We got a message from GenAI telling us to meet him in the Digiworld! I was about to go out and get you, but since you're here we can leave!" Kari said cheerfully and pulled her brother up from the floor and began to drag him in the general direction of the computer.
"So what's this all about anyway Kari?" Tai asked as Kari began calling up the program that would allow them to enter the Digital World.
"Kari and the others all got an Email from GenAI telling them to meet up at Primary Village. It didn't really say anything except that Azulongmon would be there to talk to us. I think something bad must have happened for the Sovereign to contact us" Gatomon said from her perch beside the computer.
"The others should be there by now so lets get a move on Tai!" Kari said and shifted the computer screen a litte and took a step back so that she was standing beside Tai and Koromon. Gatomon hopped down and stood beside her partner.
"I hope it doesn't have anything to do with us...." Tai whispered to Koromon who had hopped up into Tai's arms once again. Kari had taken out her D-3 and was ready to open the portal.
"Digiport open!" Kari commanded and the portal opened up and pulled in the two Digidestined and their digimon partners.
*~*~*~*~*Digidestined Realm, Eastern Quadrant, Digital World*~*~*~*~*
Tai pulled himself up off of the ground. He somehow always managed to NOT land on his feet. Maybe it was just his luck...
"What took you guys so long?" Matt asked with a smirk. He lived closer to Ken than Tai so he and T.K had been one of the first ones to arrive at Primary Village.
".........." Tai just glared at Matt. His glare had gotten a bit better, he had watched Rika carefully it seems.
"Whatever, GenAI is talking with Elecmon and Azulongmon will be here soon" Matt said and walked away from the others, Gabumon following slowly behind. Tsunomon and Koromon had digivolved back to their rookie forms when they had crossed over into the Digital World.
The Digidestined fanned out and played with the young digimon while they waited for the large dragon digimon to appear. Elecmon was talking with T.K about some of the older but still young digimon who had been newly hatched when T.K first arrived at Primary Village.
The Digidestined looked up to the sky when they heard a clap of thunder. The skys had darkened with storm clouds and Elecmon began to usher all of the baby digimon into the buildings so that they wouldn't get wet. They all helped bring the young digimon in, including GenAI.
There was another loud rumble of thunder as the storm seemed to get worse even though it hadn't started to rain yet.
A wind picked up as the clouds seemed to sweep lower to the ground. A bolt of lightning blinded everyone momentarily and when they all looked back to where the lightning had connected with the ground there was a being that hadn't been there before.
Azulongmon.
The Sovereign dragon had settled on the ground and the storm clouds cleared away to leave a clear sky once again.
"Azulongmon!" Davis greeted happily as the Digidestined and GenAI gathered in front of the massive dragon.
"Hello young one" Azulongmon greeted Davis with a nod and turned so that he could look at all of the Digidestined at once. Azulongmon held back a sigh. They were all so young.....it was so much for children to be doing, the burden of protecting the world and standing up to things grown men and women shouldn't be faced with.
Elecmon was now standing next to GenAi and he was holding two digieggs carefully in his arms. One was black with grey stripes along the sides and the other was a light yellow colour with little orange swirls all over.
"I see that everything went well" GenAi said and took the two eggs from Elecmon, carefully carrying them as he walked over to stand beside Azulongmon while he watched the Digidestined who hadn't moved or spoken.
"I have a something to tell you all. Something has happened but I believe it is beyond even all of your combinded strengths. However you are the only ones that can fight. I shall tell you all I know in hopes that it will aid you. Long ago, there were the Original Digidestined. The very first humans to come to the Digital World. They were each partnered with a digimon and the eight of them fought bravely against all that was thrown at them. Unfortunately during the last battle, one of the children was killed and their closest friend went insane at their death. His name is Kage and he has never left the Digital World. I beleive he is the one behind the trouble that has started to arise in the Digital World. The problems haven't escalated to anything that you as Digidestined could fix, however I wanted you to all be prepared for when things get out of hand" Azulongmon said and watched the mixed reactions of the children before him. Most of them were confused, but four of them had a strange look. They looked like they knew of what he was speaking and carried an understanding that the other eight did not.
"Kage is after these two digieggs. We need you to care for them until they hatch.One is someone you know, and the other is a young girls partner. Since the girl can not take the egg herself we need you to look after it for her until the problems at Azulongmon's Temple are fixed and we can send the egg to her" GenAI said as he walked over to the Digidestined and placed the yellow egg in Tai's arms and the black in Ken's arms.
"Why does Kage want these eggs?" Ken asked as he carefully cradled the egg in his arms.
"We....do not know yet. I only ask that you take care of them in the Real World. It's best if they stay there were Kage can not get them. If there is a need for you to go to the Digital World, GenAI will contact you. Please do not come to the Digital World unless it is a dire emergency" Azulongmon said as clouds began to form around him and hide his body from sight. The clouds moved and when they were thin enough to see through the Digidestined could see that Azulongmon was gone.
The Digidestined were silent as what they were told soaked in. They had just been told that they were not to set foot in what to them was their second home. They were in shock. The digimon were devasted. It didn't matter to them that there was a reason they were asked not to come to the Digital World, what mattered to them was that they were essentially banned from seeing their home.
"I guess we should start heading back, huh?" Davis said quietly and the others nodded, not really feeling like speaking.
The twenty-four of them marched silently towards the T.V that would bring them back to the human world and close the promise that they had made with Azulongmon.
*~*~*~*~*Tamers Realm, Southern Quadrant, Real World*~*~*~*~*
Takato sighed happily and glanced upwards to the evening sky. The sun was just beginning to set, and beginning to paint the sky in a kaleidoscope of colours. He and his partners had just finished having supper and they were all pleasntly full. It was the perfect evening, sitting out of the balcony with his partners and just relaxing.
Except something was bothering him, making him restless. He needed to get out on his feet and walk around. Maybe that would help. Takato got up from where he had been sitting and opened the patio door to step into his room.
"Where you goin?" Impmon asked lazily from his spot on the roof.
"I dunno, I'm kinda restless and I was thinking of going for a walk. Do you guys want to come with me?" Takato asked his partners. It was starting to get late so not many people would be out milling about the park.
Guilmon looked down from the sky to blink curiously at Takato before saying a quiet no and going back to watching the sky change colours.
"I guess I should go with ya, I mean you need someone to protect you and if Pine-Apple head isn't gonna do it I guess its gotta be me" Impmon said and leapt down from the roof and stepped inside. Takato closed the door, leaving it open and inch so Guilmon could get inside easily if he got cold or bored of watching the sky.
Takato and Impmon were in the park and the sun was still setting. It was a little cool but just pleasantly so. This was what he needed, Takato thought. The peace and quiet but he had needed to be moving.
It's to bad Takato's peace and quiet was interuptedby an explosion of light and fog.
"It's a Digital Field!" Takato shouted and pulled his goggles down so he could see easly through the fog that not surrounded him and his partner. Takato grabbed his D-Arc, ready for whatever came through. A patch of the fog cleared revealing the digimon that had managed bio-emerge into the Real World.
"Floramon?! This sweet little digimon will show you just what it can do with its Rain of Pollen and Stamen Rope attacks!" Takato said, reading off what his D-Arc projected for him.
"A rookie?! A rookie managed to get through to the real world?! That's just sad!" Impmon shouted angrily as he fumed the Floramon get ready to attack. Just a bit more data and Floramon could digivolve!
"Rain of Pollen!" Floramon shouted and threw her arms forward, allowing the pollen to fly out at Impmon. Impmon however, had beaten much stronger digimon in his rookie form so he easily dodged the pathetic attack.
"Stamen Rope!" Floramon shouted out, this time a little more desperate to hit her target. The rope whips slammed down on the spot where Impmon had been a few seconds ago. The sidewalk pavement cracked under the pressure of the attack and Impmon got fed up with the weakling.
"Inferno Funnel!" Impmon said, summoning a giant fireball that smacked into Floramon, knocking her down and lighting her stamen ropes on fire.
"AH! AH! AH! Put it out, put it out, put it out!" Floramon screamed frantically while she waved her arms around trying to put out the flames.
"Uh......Impmon...maybe you should help her?" Takato suggested as he pulled out a card and got ready to slash it.
"She attacked me first!" Impmon protested, but he WAS starting to get sick of the Floramon's screams for help.
"Impmon!" Takato shouted.
"Fine, fine! Swipe already!" Impmon said and got ready for whatever Takato was about do.
"Digimodify! Hydro Pressure Activate!" Takato shouted as he slide the card through the slot for Impmon. The card glowed with power as Takato brought it back to hold carefully while he watched his second partner use the power of the card.
"Let's see what this'll do! Hydro Pressure!" Impmon shouted and summoned a huge glob of water. Its raised from the ground much like his fireball and splattered into Floramon, putting out the flames.
"Oh my gosh! Thank you!" Floramon cried out and promptly glomped Impmon.
"ACK! Get off me!" Impmon squawked and pried himself free of the overly friendly Floramon.
"I'm SO sorry I attacked you! How can I make it up to you?" Floramon asked and once again tried to hug Impmon.
"Stop hugging me for one!" Impmon shouted and pulled out of her grasp.
"Okay!" Floramon chirped and stood beside Impmon happily waiting for him to tell her what he wanted he to do.
"I think it would be best if you just stayed in the park. Maybe tomorrow you can look for a partner" Takato suggested as the fog from the Digital Field began to fade into nothing.
"A.....P....pa..partner?" Floramon stuttered, her eyes widening at the thought.
"Uh...yah?" Takato replied shakily.
"That would be amazing! That's what every digimon dreams of! Having a partner to help make them stronger!" Floramon said dreamily and started to daydream about having a partner all her own.
"Come on, we know a place you can stay for the night where no one will bother you" Takato said and snapped the Floramon out of her daydream.
"Really? How come you guys are being so nice? No one in the Digiworld would EVER do something like this! It would just be easier to delete them and take their data!" Floramon said, suddenly slightly suspiscious.
"I guess thats just the way we are. And we aren't in the Digiworld, this is the Real World" Takato said and Impmon nodded while the two began to slowly make their way to Guilmon's old hide out so Floramon couls stay there the night.
"Wow! I still can't believe I managed to make it to the Real World!" Floramon whispered to herself as she followed the two guys around the park. The three of the stopped in front of the damaged old shed.
"Eh...sorry its in such bad shape but my partner Guilmon was a little over enthusiastic when he lived here. Oh! And be careful of the portal down the right tunnel! It goes back to the Digital World!" Takato said, warning her of the portal and anything else that could be potentially dangerous.
"Thanks for letting me stay here!" Floramon said and waved good bye as Takato and Impmon left to go home.
Takato and Impmon were halfway home when something else happened.
The sidewalk and everything in front of them wavered, like looking through a wave of intense heat.
Everything began to fizzle and meld together.
"Impmon, what the heck is going on?!" Takato asked as everything began to swirl together and fizzle. It felt like he was spinning around and around.
"Like I'm supposed to know?! Ugh! I think I'm gonna be sick!" Impmon groaned and held his stoamch as the world around them continued to spin and swirl and fizzle uncontrollably.
"Impmon....." Takato called out to his partner, just as he collapsed.
"Takato!" Impmon shouted out, his worry overcoming his nausea. Everything seemed to be closing in on him as he managed to stagger over to the collapsed boy before he to collapsed, unconscious.
Since they were unconscious they weren't able to witness the strange phenomenon that would be the beginning of theirs and everyone else greatest adventure.
