Author's Note: Welcome to the third and final story in my crossovers. For those of you to know, this is far the longest of them all and the biggest crossovers between the worlds. This story involves all of the characters in the other two stories (It's All In The Crests and The Years Ahead) plus some new ones. If you have no idea who some of the people are or what role they play, don't worry. You could read the other two or just read this one. It will explain about them pretty much.
There is a warning to you all. You should not read this story if you're the type that doesn't like fighting. Another warning to whoever is reading this is if you don't like the couples or who's in this story then you should stay away from it and stick to the other two (unless you don't like them either). If that's the case then you should check other fics.
I guess that's all I have to tell you…oh wait I almost forgot. I think you already know but I don't own the characters (or creatures) in Digimon or Pokémon. I do however, own the characters: Chloe Device, Jacob Sasaki, Jacqueline Miyagi, the names of the Digidestined's (and Pokémon trainers') kids, and the new crests and traits.
Now read and (maybe) enjoy!

Chloe: Geez Caro. You could've cut the readers some slack.
Me: What are you talking about?
Rika: (walking in) She's talking about your author's note. That is by far one of the longest disclaimers I have ever seen.
Me: Glad you could make it Rika. Now before I forget, this takes place a few months after the reunion scene in "The Years Ahead", the D-Reaper saga, and Parasimon's invasion (the Sixth Digimon movie). I hope you people read my author's note before you start accusing me of plagiarism or false ownership. This is my first attempt at writing about the Tamers and I might as well introduce my fic's muses: Chloe, T.K., Rika, Takato, Henry, and Ash. By the way, this final story is dedicated to my friends and my family. In addition, this dedication personally goes to my sister Amanda and Digidestined of Courage, DaneelRush, AnT, Angel-Chan, Ninmast, and Seth Turtle who inspired me to write fanfics on the net in the first place and are among the best authors I know. Anyone else I forgot…well, don't think you're not special 'cause you are.
T.K.: All right already. Quit boring the readers and get to the story.
Ash: Yeah.
Me: Fine, fine. It's just that I took forever on this story and I'm so glad I got to it.
Takato: The readers won't be glad if you keep talking.
Me: (sigh) You win.
Fate will challenge their skills
In the balance, one adventure will change them forever
Who will rise?
Who will fall?
Who will lead the path to victory?
And who will sacrifice everything for the life of the world?
"In time you will find your place in history and become a legend…a legend that never dies,"—Soul Calibur II
Life.
Sometimes people have no clue how precious that word really is. Not until you have to put it on the line for high stakes. I should know; I've done it plenty of times (my friends and I have anyway).
Everyone has a chance to do something really great. Most people never take the chance. Yet there are those who will take it; people who'll do whatever it takes to be the best they can be. An adventure can take you anywhere. A journey can take you so far. What dangers will you meet along the way? What friends will you gain, what sacrifices will be made, and what new challenges wait just beyond the horizon?
That's the way things went for us: adventures, battles, old foes, new friends and enemies, close encounters, life-or-death situations, and millions of times, the duty of saving the world. Now, thankfully, those times have passed (I think). We've moved on and grown up struggling through the normal routines of life. Our lives are peaceful (well most of the time) and content. It's like we never had to fight again. Or so it seemed.
Yet the Digital World was calling to us. At least to me it was. I did not want to argue with the other originals about this strange feeling so I didn't say anything. I didn't tell Kari, Patamon, or even Chloe and even though she's not a Digidestined, she has experience in these matters. Still, it seemed as if something was wrong, terrible wrong.
To make a long story short, we Digidestined and our friends, the Pokémon trainers; settled back into our normal lives, occasionally visiting each other. And that's where our newest adventure and the biggest battle of our lifetime begins…
THE SAGA OF DESTINY
Gennai stared at his image of the Digital World from his underwater house. From one side, File Island lay, proud and strong. Infinity Mountain looked even more impressive with its peak stretching slightly above the clouds. From what he could see, the borders of File Island: mountains, ruins, ice realms, forests, and the Primary Village were all peaceful and orderly. Every area was stable and calm.
Far from Infinity Mountain, the Digital World stretched up into six levels and four borders, each ruled by the Digimon Sovereign. The eastern border where File Island dwelled was ruled by Azulongmon, the southern uncivilized deserts by Zhugiaomon, the northern lands by Ebonwumon, and the western mists by Baihumon. Together, the four Digimon Gods protected their realms from evil threats.
The land Gennai's home resided on, the continent of Server was in the eastern part of the Digital World. No one really knew how far it stretched on. However, the whole continent was as peaceful as the rest of the Digital World. None of the Digimon appeared to be causing any trouble. Why did he have the strangest feeling that it wouldn't last?
Gennai did not know why he felt so uneasy. After all, the Digital World had lived in peace for approximately twenty-five years and counting. Except for one incident in Zhugiaomon's domain (to which he had refused to comment on), the spirit of Oikawa Yukioh had managed to keep his promise of protecting the Digital World from outside terrorization. Yet despite the man's promise, Gennai was still apprehensive that this time the force of evil would be so unexpected and new that Oikawa would not be able to handle the power.
He sighed and pressed a button to turn off the screen on the image before moving towards the newest addition to his house: a gray tablet. Little ciphers were etched into the rocky slab, underneath a large symbol of a circle with twenty-nine stars encircling it. The tablet itself was old and worn as if it had existed for more than thirty years. This new prophecy is so much different from the others. And yet, it's just as confusing. Why did it just appear out of nowhere?
Through the ashes fallen enemies will arise
The Chosen Children from then will return to the world;
The world of their childhood battles and adventures
The Children from now will decide its fate
With traits and crests one and the same
Life and Hope will seem gone forever
When their sacrifices are made known to the world,
A Child of Spirit will decide the course of the final struggle
Then miracles shall appear where doubt was once set
And the power of Unity will conquer all.
The prophecy hadn't always been in his house. Its natural home was actually the bottom of the lake his underwater house resided on. He'd found it only day before yesterday, washed onto the roof of his house
(A/N: Roof of an underwater house. Oh the irony)
(Chloe: Stop talking to the audience and keep typing)
(A/N: Sheesh, okay. Nag, nag, nag)
"Could this mean that the Digidestined and Pokémon trainers will have to save the world again? I better start packing my bags."
Teamwork is the Key
(Verse 1)
Sometimes
When you see the light shine
You know everything will be okay
As long as you believe
Tomorrow
Is another day
But when it comes along someday
Your heart will be prepared
All along just wait and see
It's time to fight for you and me
Cherish our time 'cause it may not last
But that's nothing for our friendship will
(Chorus)
Trust in your heart
See through your dreams
Our love will find a way to shine
All in time you'll see
Your life can take you far
Together we will stand here
Right here
And not leave
Teamwork is the key to your destiny
(Verse 2)
Now you must
Face your hardest task
No matter whatever you do
You know I'm there for you
Together
United as a team
With faith and trust within ourselves
Our hope will light the way
No matter how hard the road can get
Our souls are pure; our hearts are set
We'll face it together like we always have
No one on earth can stop us now
(Chorus)
United we stand (as one we conquer)
Nothing's too hard (if we work together)
Throughout all pain and sacrifice
We know what's right (each of us holds that key)
(Spoken)
Courage, Friendship, Love, Sincerity
Knowledge, Kindness, Reliability
Innocence, Patience, Faith, Life
Logic, Empathy, Joy, Strength
Optimism, Enthusiasm, Humility, Devotion
And Unity!
(Chorus)
Teamwork is the key. To your.... destiny
