Disclaimer: I disclaim digimon.

"Hello," said the digimon on the other end of the line before laughing maniacally. "I was wondering if I could talk to you for a few minutes about switching your phone service provider. HAHAHAHAHA!"

"DAEMON! What have you done to the Royal Knights? And the Great Dragons!"

"It's over for you, Azulongmon. The Great Dragon Digimon have been destroyed. And the royal knights are done for, too. Half of them are bound up in the back and the other half escaped. But we'll find them."

"We? I thought you work alone!"

"Well, that's changed. How can I work alone when my demon brethren are beginning to awaken? The Great demon lords shall rule the digital world!"

The Great Demon Lords were seven unstoppable evil digimon who once almost destroyed the entire digital world. However, The digital sovereigns brought together all of the good digimon and were able to defeat the Demon Lords one by one. Only Daemon, the demon of Wrath escaped. The defeated Demons were reverted back to egg form, and their eggs were put somewhere safe under the watchful eye of Alphamon, leader of the royal knights, himself. But Daemon managed to distract Alphamon for long enough to steal the eggs. For a while after this happened, the entire digital world was nervously awaiting the return of the Demon Lords, but it never came, and after a while, everyone stopped worrying. Daemon had originally stolen the eggs out of respect for his brethren, but after being foiled by Azulongmon on one of his later missions, he became so angry that he hatched the six eggs. He released the six digimon into the digital world telling them to fend for themselves until they awoke in their true forms, the Great Demon Lords, and then to return to his domain. One by one, the Demons of Greed, Lust, and Envy awoke and returned to him. And then, Daemon, as leader of the Demon Lords, decided it was time for his revenge. They attacked the Great Dragons who they knew would be their greatest threat. They waited until Azulongmon left the Sky Castle so that it would be four against three and they destroyed the powerful dragon digimon. Then, having eaten enough of the dragons' data to grow even greater in strength, Barbamon, the Great Demon Lord of Greed, used his powers to open a doorway to Yggdrasil, the base of the Royal Knights. The royal Knights were caught by surprise and defeated. Some fled and the rest were captured. Now, the demon lords were using Yggdrasil as their own base.

Azulongmon closed the screen and sighed. He knew what he had to do. He called together and emergency meeting at the Sky Castle, calling together the four Digital Sovereigns. When they arrived, he quickly explained the situation to them. "There's only one thing left to do," Azulongmon said. He opened a secret door in the Sky Castle, which led down to a secret basement. This basement contained one thing: The chaos drive, an emergency system created by the Great Dragon Digimon. Azulongmon placed the three digi-eggs of his fallen comrades in front of the drive and entered his password. Each of the other Sovereigns did the same. After Baihumon finished, a small window opened from the emergency drive. Out came four more digi-eggs, and seven human digivices. Azulongmon took the fourteen objects and flew down to a forest clearing. He left the objects there. He knew what would happen next, but he didn't know if it would save the digital world. He could only hope.

In the next chapter… the story begins.
