(special chapter)

A few weeks passed, Katie finally got 100 better. She felt good health wise, but not in heart. Even if she had promised him, she just couldn't help but keep thinking about him. She loved him. But also as she promised, she would go to John with love. And so she did! She did love him along, even before she met Wizardmon; she was just too blind to notice.

"Morning you," John said to Katie that morning as he walked into the kitchen and over to her and placed a kiss on her lips, "You still thinking about him?"

"Yeah," Katie sighed," I try my best not to be depressed over it, it's hard to keep a promise like that. But I did promise to him that I wouldn't."

John nodded.

"Oh!" Katie started as she saw John pull out three eggs from the fridge," I forgot to check on Kotori and her eggs."

"Yeah, and while you do that get that lazy David and two young love birds up," John smiled.

Katie laughed, "I'll do that."

"What are we going to do today?" Sarah asked as they ate breakfast that morning.

"Well I was thinking we go…" Katie said and paused.
"The park? Again?" David said dully. She's been doing that every day, suggest go to the park, just to visit Wizardmon's grave.

"I'm sorry guys, it's just hard to let go of," Katie said with tears in her eyes, got up and walked to her room.

"Perfect job, David," John said coldly and followed Katie.

"What did I say?" David asked Paul and Sarah.

They rolled their eyes and shook their heads, then got up and headed to Katie's room also.

"What? WHAT! What did I say?"

"We'll go to the park, but after that what should we do?" John asked.

"Anything that doesn't bring memories," Katie said with her face buried in her hands.

"Well I guess the beach is out of the question," David whined.

John looked at him coldly as if saying "shut up!"

"Sorry."

"Let's go to the mall!" Sarah yelled.

"Sure, why don't we do that Katie?" John said smiling.

Katie looked up at him, smiled then nodded.

As they walked to the park, Katie noticed someone familiar.

"Hey John! It's that girl with her Tansumon! And …she has someone else with her," Katie pointed out.

John looked over, "Yeah you're right."

"Hey! You! Jessica!" Katie yelled.

Jessica looked over, smiled and said something to Tansumon then ran over.

"Hey! I remember you! You were the one with that Wizardmon. He's well right? Where is he?"

Kate had a smile on her face, but quickly frowned and looked to the side.

"Oh...I guess he didn't make it?"

"No…that's not it. He was killed by a Darkmon about two weeks ago trying to save me."

"Ooooh, well that's very sad. Sounds like what happened to my friend's partner's elder brother. Here I'll introduce you to them," Jessica began as the girl and her Digimon walked over," This is Alissa, she's my best friend. And this is her Digimon partner Cogymon, he can digivolve to Wizardmon too. He had an elder brother Wizardmon, but he died sacrificing his life for his friend Gatomon. If you watch the Digimon series you would know what I'm talking about."

"OH! I know who you're talking about!" Paul said.

Katie, John, David, and Sarah looked at him.

"What? I used to watch it when I was still very nerdy back in Middle School," Paul said, blushing.

"You still are," David said.

"Hi," Alissa said and waved, following her Digimon partner.

Katie bent down and looked at Cogymon, "So you digivolve to Wizardmon right? Is it alright if…if I see? I really miss Wizardmon, I wish to see him once again."

Cogymon looked up at Alissa for permission.

"Sure," Alissa said and pulled out her digivice from her pocket.

"Hey I've seen that!" Paul said, "I found that on Katie's drawer when she was captured by Darkmon. And I placed it by Wizardmon's grave."

Alissa looked over at Jessica, "Do you know what he's talking about?"

Jessica grinned sheepishly, "Yeah, about that. I did summon a digivice for them, but it would only appear if they were ready to be partners."

"Well, if he died, he should come back then," Alissa said.

Katie sprang up quickly," What?"

Alissa stepped back a bit," You didn't know? Digimon can be reborn. They're data you know."

"How am I supposed to know?"

"Well now you do, Digimon can become reborn. They normally go to Primary Village when they die, so you can check there."

"Oh yeah! Now I remember," Paul said, "but…wait a minute."

Jessica and Alissa looked at him with a questioning look.

"Ok, Cogymon's elder brother…Wizardmon. He died right? But he never did come back. Why?"

"Good question," Alissa started, "Since he died in the real world, his data couldn't make it back to Primary Village in the digital world."

Katie frowned.

"But! If he were to be a Digimon partner to a chosen child, he most likely would have made it back alive. Digimon partners are digidestined Digimon. They must always be with their partner, so if they were to die, their partner's digivice would put their data back together and their egg will either appear in front of the partner or it would go to Primary Village."

"Oh, I get it now," Paul said.

"But, if I had the digivice why hasn't Wizardmon come back yet?" Katie asked.

"It takes time; also you have to be near the digivice, if it's at the grave then it wont work."

Katie went wide eyed then ran over to the grave.

"Paul! Where did you put it?" Katie yelled over to him as she searched for it.

"Right behind the grave, why…can't you find it?"

"No…" Katie said.

Fang then ran over to them, barking, and ran behind the tree and started digging.

"Fang! This isn't the time for you to dig up another hole for your stupid bones," Katie whined.

Fang barked again, then came around the tree with the device in his mouth.

"He's got it!" Katie said and ran over and took it from him.

John laughed, "Knowing Fang, he probably thought it was important and hid it so no one else could take it."

"Good boy," Katie said petting him.

Fang wagged his tail and barked.

Katie then walked over to the grave, bent down and held the digivice close to her heart," Please…Wizardmon…please come back. You are my partner…I need you."

Nothing happened.

"Why isn't it working?" Katie whined.

"Hm…" Jessica started, rubbing her chin.

"Maybe," Tansumon began, "Maybe Wizardmon isn't only Katie's partner."

Jessica looked down at her and smiled, "That's right. Two people can have one Digimon as a partner."

"Then who else?" Katie said.

John smiled and bent down next to her. Katie looked over at him and smiled, "I should have known, it was John too all along."

They both held the digivice, then it began to glow.

"It's working!" Cogymon smiled.

Alissa looked down at him with a big smile too.

Soon the light vanished, and right in front of them was a light blue egg with blue designs.

"It's…it's…" Sarah started.

"It's him!" Katie yelled and picked up the egg and held it close.

"Since you're near it, it …should hatch soon," Jessica said.

"Here, I'll take it home. Why don't you two come along with?" Katie said.

"Well we don't have anything else better to do…sure," Alissa said.

"Nice home…roomy," Cogymon said.
"Yeaaah, you're just saying that. We don't really have a job; my little sister provides most money for us. John will eventually get his lazy ass up to get a job," Katie said placing the egg on the table.
John glanced at Katie.

"What? You are!"

John rolled his eyes and walked into the living room to get a pillow.

Soon, later that day. Kotori began to act up.

"Oh! Cute bird…seems you don't keep it inside a cage," Jessica said as she dunked while Kotori swooped over her.

"Yeah, this is Kotori. We didn't buy her, we found her. Well…Wizardmon did. She became really attached to him. Even when she wasn't near the death scene, Paul and Sarah told me she started acting up then sang a sad tune when he died. I guess she's figured that's his egg and might think you two might do something to it," Katie said and went to pick her up, whom was sitting on the counter.

"It's alright, I can understand that."

"Now missy, you need to get back to YOUR eggs," Katie whispered to her as she walked toward her nest.

"Eggs? She's got eggs?"

"Yeah, we can't understand when she met another canary…but she laid eggs about a week before Wizardmon died."

"So they should be hatching soon right?"

"Yep…we can't wait."

"Speaking of hatching…guys…look," David said.

Wizardmon's egg on the table began to hatch.

Soon the small beady eyes appeared in the cracks of the egg.

"Awwww," Sarah said immediately.

Katie took off the rest of the egg from atop of him, and cupped the small cute, red ball of jelly in her hands. Tears of happiness ran from her eyes, "I knew I'd be able to see you again."

The baby smiled, and too had tears coming from his eyes.

"You know…" Alissa began grabbing their attention, "You can digivolve him to Wizardmon right now if you wanted to."

"Really? How?"

"Easy, your digivice. Do you mind if I could see it?"

Katie unclipped it from her pants and handed it over.

"Let's see, all the data is recorded on here. From baby to Champion. Ha that's funny, he digivolved from a Gabumon to a Wizardmon. That very rarely happens. Normally when he's …mistreated or made to train too much…is when a Gabumon digivolve to a different form."

"Really? Well…that explains why. Wizardmon said he was mistreated with his original partner," John said.

"Original partner?" the others said.

"Yeah, the night we went to visit him at the hospital…he and I talked. He told me he was originally a partner with a boy named Taylor. He constantly forced him to train, so he could digivolve to Garurumon. Well …one day he saved him from a Digimon and was injured on his eye. That's where he got his scar from. So Taylor, discussed by what he digivolved to, betrayed him and left him out in the streets. Wizardmon stayed out and protected the city, constantly getting injured from his fights. But no one ever took him in to love him, till we did," John said, telling almost the whole story.

"Awww that's so sweet," Sarah said, wiping her eyes on Paul's shirt.

"Well that makes sense too…well anyway, I'll explain to you how the digivice works," Alissa began, "Here…I'll just show you with Cogymon."

Cogymon smiled and stood in front of Alissa, while she pulled out her digivice.

"Time warp! Digivolve…" she yelled.

The digivice read "Rookie" on it. Alissa pushed a button and it switched to "Champion".

"…Champion!"

Cogymon then glowed a light, and transformed into Wizardmon.

"Wow…cool!" Sarah screamed.

"See…easy," Alissa said and handed Katie her digivice back, "Now you give it a try. But make sure you push the button three times to make him reach Champion stage. If you push it once he'll go to In-Training stage…which is the next stage after the baby stage."

"Oh…ok," she said and put the baby on the ground. She held the digivice in front of him.
"Time warp! Digivolve…"

The digivice read "Baby". Katie pushed the button three times till it read "Champion".

"…Champion!"

The baby then transformed. He grew bigger and bigger, till he was fully formed. There in front of Katie…stood the one she's longed to see for about three weeks now.

"Wizardmon!" Katie yelled and hugged him. Everyone else (aside from Jessica, Alissa, and their two partners) ran over to hug him. Fang came in barking, running around them. Also in came Kotori, chirping loudly and landing on Wizardmon's hat.

"I'm glad to see you all again," Wizardmon smiled.

Kotori chirped, and looked down at him from on the brim of his hat.

"Ha ha, I'm glad to see you too Kotori, how're your eggs?"

Kotori chirped again and flapped her wings.

"Still not hatched? Well I'm glad to have not missed the action!"
Kotori chirped again and flew back to her nest.

Wizardmon then turned over to Katie and John, "Well…it sure seems you two got together." He noticed them holding each others' hands, they looked down and removed them quickly.

Wizardmon laughed then turned to everyone else, "Glad to see you also."

David and Paul smiled then nodded, while Sarah was crying…then she just jumped up and hugged him, "I was so afraid we would never see you again!"

Wizardmon patted her back," Yeah…I was afraid the same thing."

"Ok Sarah, he can't breathe," Katie laughed and tried to pull her off.

"Well, glad to see you're all happy again," Alissa said, "Seems to be getting late. Maybe we can meet again sometime. If you ever need me…just call me on the digivice. Well let's go Jessica."

Jessica nodded and stood next to Alissa, their Digimon partners also walked over to them and stood close next to them. Then Alissa held up her digivice and called out "Time Warp! Travel!" and pushed a button…then they were gone!

"Wait!...great…and how do I call with a digivice?" Katie said.

Paul laughed, "Don't worry…I'll figure it out."

"Yeah, you know how good Paul is with stuff like this," Sarah said hanging on him.

"Thank you," Paul said and kissed her.

So everyone was happy again, since they had a digivice…Wizardmon was able to go out and fight other Digimon that had come onto Earth to cause more havoc. He had John and Katie there to cheer him on, and make sure nothing happened.

Also…one more thing. About four days after Wizardmon's rebirth…Kotori's eggs finally hatched. Four healthy chicks. Years passed and they were all tamed, Paul and Sarah were engaged. John and Katie married, with Katie pregnant with a girl. So…they all lived happily ever after.
