A/N: This was a story I did awhile back, but after rereading I decided it was in desperate need of some revamping. So here is the prologue and the first chapter. For all of you who have never read it, please enjoy this and for all my returning friends, I hope this builds on what you loved.

They had been sent on a quest. Forced one last time to go back. As if they could never be complete without them. They, the originals, the DigiDestined who had pioneered the way, were sent back one more time to find their lost crests. Like they hadn't done enough before, their lives were interrupted and they were pulled back.
They found them with little trouble. There was peace now and they had only met ornery digimon looking for a fight, but it had relatively easy. Tucked away, deep inside a cavern where no light shined, their crests lay upon pedestals of carved stone, necklaces with glowing symbols, awaiting their owners. Eight kids watching the cavern walls with weary expressions; waiting for the trap to be sprung, because retrieving their symbols had never been so easy in their lifetime.
Tai stepped forward first, eternally the leader, the one who went first. He found his crest, Courage, and approached it. The others followed, seven teens separating and taking their places around the circular cavern. Simultaneously eight hands reached for eight crest, Courage, Friendship, Love, Knowledge, Reliability, Sincerity, Hope and Light. Eight hands gripped eight crests. Three figures ignited in light, bathed in a heavenly glow. The other five stared at them, pained and shocked, with the darkness that surrounded them chilling their skin, while the light burned their eyes. The three bathed with the light of their brilliant crests watched them in fear, unsure what to do. Their friends looked lifeless.
The three dropped their crests and the light faded, leaving the cavern in a darkness that hadn't seemed so thick before. No one said a word and the silence was nearly as painful as the dark. No one knew what do to or what to say. Finally, without a word, Tai tucked his crest into his pocket and turned toward the entrance. The others followed.
A/N: Please review.
