Chapter 1
He groans as he tries to move slightly. He opens his eyes a tiny bit and finds himself in a forest. He sighs and notices that the book is lying close at hand. He sits up and picks it up. He then checks his backpack and finds the dry food resting unharmed in his backpack. Next is his goggles, his card deck, and then his D-Ark.
Everything looks fine and he sighs as he begins to play with his D-Tector. He gives up, but he has noticed the light blue out line around the purple trim. He just pockets his D-Tector and then puts the book into his backpack. He shoulders his pack and begins to walk towards this rock that looks like a tree. He doesn't know where he was, but he's more comfortable with rock shaped items then with actual trees.
If he is where he figures, then he's a very long way from home. He wonders just how long it will take for him to get hope. He worries about the trouble his presence will cause. He doubts that his presence went unnoticed.
He stands before the rock shaped like a tree and then looks around. He places his hand on the rock before heading to his right. He had noticed a trail heading that way and figures that it'll lead him to a village or town. He could then ask around about a way to get back. He bets that his parents and friends are worrying about him.

He whistles tonelessly as he walks along side Kouji and Koichi. They were heading home from Zoe's party and he's got energy to burn. Here they are, three fourteen-year-old boys heading towards the train station. Kouji says, "Could you please stop that? I swear, you're tone deaf." He turns and grins at one of his best friends. "It's not that bad, right Koichi?" He asks the older twin. "It's not that bad, Kouji." Koichi admits. He moves behind the pair and then puts his arms around their shoulders. "Thanks Koichi!" He says cheerfully.
He doesn't need to look at Kouji to know that the bandana wearing teen is rolling his eyes. It's been a good two years since their adventures in the Digital World and the six of them were still close, even though it's usually just Kouji, Koichi, and himself hanging out at their high school. Zoe's too busy with the Language club and Video club at the high school to hang with them too often. JP goings to a different high school and Tommy is busy with hanging with friends his own age.
He lets go of his two buddies shoulders as they approach the ticket machine. He takes out the right amount of change and takes his ticket. Next Koichi and then Kouji. Just as they move into the crowd, their cell phone rang. They pause and answer their phones. His heart tightens at the sound of Ophanimon's voice. "It would seem you're needed yet again. Someone powerful has arrived in our world. If you do, take the elevator to the basement level. A Trailmon will be there to take you to the Digital World." The phone call ends and he pockets his cell phone as he begins to head towards the elevators. He knows that Kouji and Koichi were right behind him.
(----Takato----)
He finds a rocky outcropping and decides it'll do for the night. He sets about finding fresh berries to eat, as to save the dry food in his pack for a time when he can't find fresh food. He finds some yellow berries with a black stripe through them. He eats one of the small berries and waits to see if he's affected by it. Nothing harmful occurred and he tags them as safe.
He gathers two handfuls of them and heads back to the rocky outcropping. He sighs and wonders why he didn't bring matches to use. He wouldn't mind a campfire. He wonders if there are any towns or villages around here where he can find camp supplies. He watches as the sunsets, so different then the line of darkness that signals night from his time in the Digital World where they went to retrieve Calumon and his beast spirit. He then watches as two moons begin to become visible in the night sky.
He just doesn't feel at home here. He's jumpy and wary about falling asleep around here without any of his friend. He misses Guilmon the most out of all those he left behind. He can't even reach him through their link. He finishes eating the berries and spends the rest of the night studying the night sky.
(----Takuya----)
He grips onto the armrests as the car begins to shake. He hears Koichi's voice sound out in pain. "We did warn you, Koichi." Kouji says. They relax as Koichi walks back to sit by his brother's seat. They had waited for a good twenty minutes before Ophanimon phoned to tell them that the others were going to use another Trailmon and that they should climb aboard the Trailmon before them.
He opens the window and watches Fire Terminal comes into view. He grins as the Trailmon begins to slow up a bit as they approach the station. He closes the window before Kouji could tell him too. He watches Koichi's reaction as the Trailmon stops inside the building.
Once the doors open, he's the first one out of the car. "Ahhhhh. It's good to be back!" He says as he stretches his arms. "You'd think you're still a kid." Kouji says with amusement. He sends a glare Kouji's way and his friend ignores it. Koichi says, "It's so hot in here." He glances at the elder twin. "This is where I fought Cerberumon and found my human spirit." He says, he smiles as he remembers that whole incident.
They remain silent for a few minutes, each lost in their own thoughts. He then looks around for Bokomon or Neemon, but finds that no trace of the pair around. He blinks as a Patamon flies their way.
"Sorry to be late, it's just it's not everyday you get to meet Legends!" The orange rookie says. He blinks and had to wonder where the pink band was. 'Don't Patamon's have pink belts? Or was it just that Patamon was special?' He thinks as Kouji asks, "Then Ophanimon sent you?" Patamon smiles proudly and says; "She thought I was the right choice to guide you to the meeting point." He shares a glance with Kouji and Koichi asks, "I don't mean anything by this, but what happened to Bokomon and Neemon?"
The rookie looks confused and then the little guy understands. "They're both gone. It's been over four thousand years since the last time you were here." The Patamon says sadly. "But Digimon don't die, they get reborn." Koichi says. Patamon nods and says, "Some Digimon grow tired of the cycle of rebirth and ask that their fractal code combine with someone's else. In that way, two new Digimon are born from the pervious pair." They are still and slowly they sigh. He didn't know just what to say to that.
"Well, lead on then." Kouji says in a neutral tone. Patamon nods and they soon follow the little flying rookie Digimon. He wonders what else has changed over the past two years, or in Digital years over four thousand years.
(----Takato----)
It's been a whole month and he's still not totally sure at why this virus Digimon were stalking him. He's doesn't want get into a needless fight with this native Digimon, but at this rate, he'll have to fight them soon. If only to get some peace and quiet so he can think about his situation.
He sits on the rock by that's by the stream. He scans his surroundings and has to wonder if they're circling in on him. He just doesn't want to delete these Digimon, but he also doesn't want to be bullied. He just runs his hand through his hair, it's grown over the month his been here. His goggles keep his bangs from covering his eyes. He also has tanned during his time in this world.
A stick snaps behind him and he sighs. He places his right hand into his pocket. He's just going to have to fight; he's tired of running away. He tries to look like he didn't hear it; he wants to catch them by surprise. He closes his eyes and clears his mind. He finds that five Digimon are spread out around him.
The most powerful Digimon are across the stream, one's a Cherrymon and the other's a Blossomon. Out of the other three there is a Chamelemon, a Coelamon, and finally a Doggymon. He sighs as he opens his eyes. He could easily fly off, leaving them far behind.
He smirks as he considers the idea. He dodges without even thinking about it. He turns to find a long tongue rolling back into the armour Digimon's mouth. He quickly takes out his D-Tector and summons the ringlet of data for his human spirit, Enlilmon. "Spirit Evolution!" He cries out as he finishes scanning the ringlet of data circling his left hand.
Energy flows through and then out of him. He feels the weight of his wings, his sword Hydra, and his armour. He cries out, "Enlilmon!" He takes to the air as the Coelamon tries to tackle him. He turns as the Blossomon says, "Thorn Whips!" He takes out Hydra and slices the vines coming towards him. Then the Cherrymon shouts, "Pit Pelter!" He rises higher into the air to evade the attack.
He circles around and then charges the Blossomon. The ultimate level Digimon cries out, "Ninja Flower!" He uses his Blazing Ancient attack to deflect the flowers coming towards him. He shouts, "Ebony Slash!" The attack hits the Blossomon head on. The Blossomon cries out in pain.
He dodges an attack from Chamelemon. He once more soars overhead and he frowns as he watches as the remaining four Digimon glare at him. He sighs mentally as the Cherrymon picks up the Doggymon and throws the yellow Digimon uses his Jesting Howling. He descends towards the ground; he recovers in time to use Hydra to block an attack from Coelamon.
He digs his heels into the dirt and then moves quickly to his left and uses his Blazing Ancient as Coelamon trips forward as the Digimon's own weight moves him forward. The attack hits the water Digimon in the back and helps send the Digimon into the ground really hard. He takes a defensive stance as he faces the pair of plant Digimon.
He takes time to feel out the location of the Chamelemon. He keeps a smirk off his face as he locates the lizard Digimon. He can hear the Coelamon grunt as he picks himself up off the ground. He moves quickly as he feels the armour Digimon get ready to attack. He uses the flat of his blade on the lizard's head, knocking the armour Digimon out cold.
He moves out of Doggymon's way as the yellow champion tries Ultra Bite. He uses Hydra's hilt to knock the dog Digimon out cold. He backs out as Cherrymon uses his Pit Pelter and Blossomon uses Ninja Flower. He leaps into the air as Coelamon tries to ram him. He uses Ebony Slash as Blossomon tries Thorn Whips on his yet again. He grunts as he once more as Cherrymon uses Pit Pelter. He is growing tired of this as he once more dodges the attack.
He decides to go on the offensive. He charges through the air towards the Blossomon. He uses his Ebony Slash right as he is within a foot of the larger Digimon. The attack slices the plant Digimon in half and he turns and gives Cherrymon a cold look.
"Why are you chasing me? What have I done to you?" He asks evenly. The tree Digimon says, "We want the book, but now we want your spirits! Hand them over or else!" He snorts and says, "Odd thing to say, considering I've knocked the others out and deleted you're buddy, Blossomon." He can tell that the Cherrymon has nothing to say to that. "Stop trailing me." He says as he sheaths Hydra. He gives the Cherrymon a meaningful look and then soars into the air. He climbs as high as he can and then heads east. He hopes that the Cherrymon will pass the threat around to the others. He hates to fight needless battles.
(----Takuya----)
They have been traveling for about two hours with Patamon leading them through the forest south of Fire Terminal. They soon pass the trees and notice a bunch of rocks in a clearing. He studies the standing stones and wonders if this was made after they saved the Digital World or before.
They enter into the circle of standing stones and then they blink as they come face to face with Orphanimon. "Orphanimon! I brought them as you asked." Patamon says. Orphanimon smiles at the orange Digimon and says, "Thank you for leading them here. You may go if you wish." The rookie Digimon nods and says, "I'll be over at the Fox Run. Bye!" They watch as the flying Digimon heads east south.
After two minutes of watching Patamon disappeared over the horizon, they turn to look at the Mega level Angel Digimon. "I'll begin, about a month ago, a rip between dimensions opened up and someone powerful crossed over into our world. Sadly, we haven't been able to track this being." Orphanimon says. They look between them and he asks, "Any idea on how to locate this… being?" Orphanimon shakes her head and says, "We can't get a lock in on its power signature. Though we have noticed that whatever this being is, it powered up about an hour ago. We do know that it's in the regions of Wind country."
He looks thoughtful and asks, "So when do we leave?" Orphanimon says, "First you need to go to Honour's Castle to retrieved you're spirits. It'll take a few days, but hopefully by then the others might be here. I'll teleport you to the city close to the castle. There are defensives placed around the castle to keep the spirits from harm. There are Digimon out there hoping to use them for their own gains." They all nod and soon markings appear under their feet as Ophanimon speaks in an unknown language. Soon they feel like their were having their skins pled off and their insides are turning into mush. Then suddenly they fall to the ground and they all chough and groan as they roll about on the ground. "I hope we never have to travel like that again." Koichi says. Both Kouji and him groan in agreement.
(----Rika----)
It's been three days since Takato disappeared and Guilmon's been scouting around for portals through out the city. She frowns as she thinks about the red rookie. Calumon lost interest after a whole thirty minutes of helping Guilmon look for portals. Renamon's been keeping an eye on Guilmon, quite a few people are worried about the virus Digimon.
The Monster Makers and Hypnos were busy going over the spike in energy when Takato disappeared. They were also doing something with Grani as well. She doesn't know if it'll help, but she figures that at least they're doing something to help find Takato. She scowls as she thinks about how the Monster Makers knew that there was a chance that Takato could disappear like that and didn't tell them about the risk.
She just shakes her head as they all sit around the shed that Guilmon calls home. They had meet to talk about how Guilmon is and now they're all thinking about just what Takato might be doing right now. She knows that Takato still has his spirits of Shifting Chaos, so he's not defenceless. Still, she rather have the goggle wearing pre teen here with them then in some kind of dangerous other dimension Digital World.
Jeri says suddenly, "It's getting late and I have a ton of homework to catch up on. I'll see you guys tomorrow, ok?" They all snap out of their thought at this. "Yea, it's late. We all have school and homework to catch up on. I guess we'll have to meet up again this weekend." Henry says. They all get up off the ground and soon they're all heading home.
She notices that Henry and Jeri were talking in voices too low for her to hear. Terriermon is telling Elecmon a funny story about a priest and a monk in a bar. She just shakes her head as she distances herself from the pair. She figures that Jeri might be blaming herself about the whole D-Reaper incident, but Henry seems to be the one that Jeri will listen to about it.
"Guilmon is resting about a block away the bakery." Renamon says as her partner appears. She nods and changes her course. She asks, "He's been eating, right?" "Not as much as he normally does, but he does." The Digital Fox replies as they head towards the bakery to grab something for Guilmon to eat. She also knows that this is hard on Takato's parents, but they firmly believe that Takato will make it home. She doesn't try to persuade them otherwise, for she knows that Takato's also looking for a way home. She just hopes that their efforts will only speed the time up.
She blinks in surprise to find herself already in front of the bakery where Takato lives. She walks into the bakery and smiles as Takato's mom greets her. "I'll get the bread, just wait here." Takato's mom says before heading into the kitchen. Soon Takato's mom comes out with a bag with pastries and some fruit in it. She takes the bag and says, "Thank you. I'll give it to Guilmon right away. I'll see you later." Takato's mom nods as she turns and leaves the bakery.
She follows Renamon to where Guilmon is currently sleeping. She smiles sadly at the large Digimon and places the bag by Guilmon's head. She hopes that Guilmon will eat everything that's in the bag. She stands there for a minute, then turns and leaves. She knows that Renamon will stay and guard the red Digimon.
To be continued …
