The break from the academy was nearly over for Davis and the others. It was a nice surprise to have the girls visit, but the break is just about over. However, Davis continues to be haunted by the strange dream he keeps having and it keeps playing the same over and over again. It went off again and just like before, he shot straight up from his bed.

"What's the matter?" Veemon asked.

"That dream again. Why does it keep happening?" Davis questioned. This dream continues and Davis has no idea what it even means or why he keeps having it. The next morning, it was a normal day for Davis as he had some breakfast with his parents.

"So when do you head back to the academy, Davis?" Jack asked.

"Not until later in the afternoon or early in the morning tomorrow." Davis said.

"Well, it's been nice to have you home. It's been pretty quiet around here without you." Gina said.

"I am the life of the party." Davis said as he continued to eat. That was when he heard a knock on the door. Davis went and got it and saw it was Sierra and Kimi. "Sierra? Kimi? What are you two doing here?"

"We just got a message from Miss Orimura." Sierra said.

"Yeah. Didn't you get it?" Kimi said.

"No." Davis said.

"Here." Sierra said as she held out a device and it showed the message saying that Chifuyu wants all of them to meet in the woods outside of Odaiba.

"Davis, who is it?" Jack asked as he and Gina stepped out to look.

"Sorry. It's just a couple friends I made at my new school." Davis said. "Mom and Dad, that's Sierra and Kimi."

"Hello there." Kimi said.

"Piacere. It is nice to meet you." Sierra said.

"It's nice to meet you both as well. You two are very pretty." Gina said. Points for Kimi and Sierra for having Davis' parents approve of both of them.

"Davis, we better get going." Kimi said. "You know how Miss Orimura is if we're late to the meeting point."

"Yeah okay." Davis said. He quickly got changed and hurried out the door. "Bye, Mom. Bye, Dad. I'll see you two when I get my stuff and Veemon." All three of them ran out.

"It's nice to see Davis make such good friends." Gina said.

"Yeah." Jack said, but his mind appeared to be somewhere else. "It makes me wonder if we're doing the right thing." Gina heard that and it aura in the room got a little depressing.

"Hurry up, Davis." Kimi called out. "I thought since you play soccer that you would be faster."

"Hang on. I'm coming." Davis said as he hurried, but when he went around the corner, he accidently knocked into someone. "Sorry about that."

"That's okay." The person he ran into was a man about nine years older than they are. He had short blonde hair wearing a lab coat and wore a light green shirt with black shorts and he had his own set of goggles around his head, but the lenses was smaller than Davis. "Hey. Nice look. A little on the strange side, but everyone has their own sense."

"Huh? What's wrong with the way I look?" Davis said.

"Nothing! Ha!" The guy said and all three of them thought he was a pretty strange man. "Ooh! Is that a pie shop?!" He was going to check it out, but suddenly stopped. "Wait! I've got somewhere I need to be. This place is so big that I don't know where to even go! Too many places to see, but not enough time. Bye!" The strange man took off and was out of their sight.

"Either of you know who that weirdo was?" Davis asked, but Sierra and Kimi didn't have a clue.

….

The Woods

Davis and the girls made it to the woods outside of Odaiba. They soon arrived to the meeting point that Chifuyu set and they saw everyone, Davis' group of friends and Ichika's group, was there with Chifuyu herself.

"There you three are." Chifuyu said.

"Hey, Davis. Your hometown looks great." Ichika said.

"Hey, what's going on?" Davis said.

"Don't know. Hearing Miss Orimura with Ichika, Houki, and the others was certainly a surprise to all of us." Lita said.

"Miss Orimura, what are we all doing here in the first place?" Charlotte asked.

"Now that everyone is here, I'll gladly explain. This is about the two that attacked during the tournament." Chifuyu said. That got everyone's attention for it was hard to forget. "Kanzashi Sarashiki, please bring up the data that I asked for."

"Harina and the mystery pilot." Davis said.

"Yes. Those two have brought shame on my name that I must redeem." Fria said.

"So what did you learn?" Ichika asked.

"We were finally able to gather data on the I.S. units that they used." Chifuyu said. "The one Harina used is called Orochi. It's a melee unit where it uses those snake-like extensions to help her fight. The other one is actually similar to Fang's Shenlong."

"It is?" Rin said.

"Yeah. I remember I got blasted by the same kind of cannon Rin uses." Davis said.

"Yes. It could be referred to as Shenlong 2.0, but it's also known as Tartarus." Chifuyu said. "As for who was piloting that unit, still remains a mystery. What we do know is that neither of these units have been registered in any country."

"What?!" All of them said.

"How can none of them be registered anywhere? They have to have come from somewhere." Cecilia said.

"We've contacted everyone we could, but they all denied building the units." Tatenashi said. "We think they might be part of some organization that operates in the shadows."

"They're true objective still alludes us. That's why I've assembled all of you here." Chifuyu said. "You all have personal units and I want you all to be ready to jump in action."

"Wait a minute ma'am. Lita doesn't have her own unit." Serene said.

"Actually…." Lita said, but wasn't quite sure what to say.

"We're about to have a special guess." Chifuyu said.

"Bonzai!" All of them looked to the sky and saw someone dive right down and land on his feet. It was the same strange person that Davis ran into. "Hiya!"

"Hey! You're the same weirdo from before!" Davis said.

"You were heading here too? I would have brought you." The stranger said and had his eye on one of them. "Lita! Lita, it's been so long! Come here!" He ran right to her with just enjoyment, but Lita hit him right in the face with some frustration and annoyance in her fist and he was knocked down. "That's no way to say hello."

"Lita, do you know this weirdo?" Davis asked.

"Sadly. Everyone, this is Wade. He's my older brother." Lita said.

"That guy is your brother?!" Davis said.

"Yep!" Wade said. "How is my precious baby sister?" He said like he was talking to an actual baby.

"You know I hate it when you talk to me like I'm still a baby! You know I'm not on anymore!" Lita said.

"You might have gotten old, but I'll always be older. So you'll always be my baby sister. Even if your chest gets bigger." Wade said and laughed like a child. That got him stomped on by Lita multiple times.

"I'm embarrassed to be related to you." Lita said.

"Lita's relationship with her brother certainly is….unique." Ichika said as he didn't know what else to think about it.

"Dysfunctional is what I call it." Houki said. Wade looked in their direction and spotted her. Wade managed to escape Lita's wrath and went over to Houki. He looked at Houki from all angles and it was making her mad.

"Hey! Aren't you Houki Shinonono?" Wade said.

"Yes, but how do you know that?" Houki asked.

"From your sister. Tabune and I are pretty good friends." Wade said. Houki was a little surprised for her sister never mentioned him before. "She and I studied under the same teach during a summer course."

"Houki has a sister?" Davis asked.

"Oh! I guess you never were told." Ichika said. "Houki's big sister, Tabune, is actually the person who created I.S. units."

"No way!" Davis said.

"Mentor, what is this strange man doing here?" Laura asked.

"I found out Fangshin's call to him and asked him to come here." Chifuyu said.

"Wade, did you bring it?" Lita asked.

"I sure did!" Wade said as he pulled out a switch and pressed a button. Something came falling down and landed near them. "Here it is, Lita. Your own personal unit. Red Wyvern." Everyone was amazed that a brand new bright red unit came to them.

"Lita's about to have her own unit?!" Rin said.

"How did he even get his hands on one?!" Laura said.

"My brother might act like an idiot, but he's actually a prodigy." Lita said. "He knows his stuff with computers and mechanics. He's been studying the I.S. for a while and made it himself."

"Try it out and let's see if you're as snug as bug in a rug." Wade said. "Might be a little tight if your breast are too big."

"Shut up! Who says that kind of stuff to their own sister?!" Lita said.

"I don't know. I kind of like him." Tatenashi said. Embarrassment aside, Lita changed and fit inside Red Wyvern. A bright red unit with wyvern wings and has red diamonds on the side of her head. She also had a plate pressed against her chest with a jagged bottom to it making it look like teeth. Lita got a good feel for it and like how it felt.

"Go on. Give it a try!" Davis said. Lita agreed to it and flew up into the air and she was going fast.

"Wow! This speed is incredible!" Lita said.

"It is pretty fast! I say the only unit that's faster than it would be Houki's Akatsubaki." Tatenashi said.

"Amazing! It's probably the same generation as Ichika's!" Kanzashi said. "It's more advance than the third generation."

"So far so good." Lita said.

"Lita, Red Wyvern has a weapon to it." Wade said. "Give that weapon a good kaslash! Pull out the Dorakoejji!"

"Let me see." Lita said and was able to summon a double edged sword to her hands. "It looks like a normal sword."

"Normal?! You think I do normal?! Boo on you." Wade said. "Try it out! Slice something!" Lita agreed to it just to get him to shut up. Lita flew back to the ground and sliced a tree right against it. What was impressive is that she was met with absolute no resistance and the tree went falling down.

"Whoa! It's almost like it didn't slice through anything!" Lita said. All the others were quite impressed as well. Davis went to check it out and felt the tree stump.

"Amazing!" Davis said. "There's no rough edges. It's completely smooth. It's as flat as glass." Kimi went over to the fallen tree and felt it on the tree as well."

"Davis is right." Kimi said.

"That sword holds a diamond-like blade. It's capable of slicing through almost anything." Wade said.

"That's incrediblie!" Sierra said.

"I would have to agree with you there." Charlotte said.

"Wow! You actually came through, Wade." Lita said.

"Nothing's too good for my baby sister." Wade said in the baby voice again and Lita got annoyed by him again.

"I wonder how this sword handles through flesh and bone." Lita said as she held it to him.

"Come on. Don't even joke like that." Wade said with an innocent look.

"This is very good. We'll all be returning to the academy tomorrow morning. When we do, you're all on standby." Chifuyu said.

"Yes, ma'am!" All of them said like soldiers in an army. Lita loved the fact that she had her own unit now.

…

Davis and Lita

Lita managed to be alone with Davis and the two of them hit a restaurant for them to eat outdoors. Lita couldn't stop admiring her new unit with it now as a chain bracelet with a red diamond hanging from it.

"You're brother really came through, didn't he?" Davis said.

"Yeah." Lita said. 'Now that I have my own personal unit, maybe it can help me be close to Davis like it did with the others.' She thought. She was happy that she could hang with Davis, but she noticed that he didn't look so happy. "Davis, are you okay? You look like you got something on your mind."

"Huh? Sorry." Davis said. "I just can't stop thinking about this dream I keep having. It's been happening for a long time and I don't even know why."

"Really? What happens in this dream?" Lita asked.

"It's weird. It's like flash images." Davis said. "First, there are these machines. Then, I heard this crash. Then, I see that's it raining, but there's a fire going. Finally, I see my dad. I also hear a baby crying."

"Weird. Are you sure you don't know what it means. Maybe you just don't know you know." Lita said.

"What do you mean?" Davis asked.

"Sometimes dreams are from some memories." Lita said. "Maybe something happened that you were too young to remember, but it was buried somewhere in your subconscious. If your father is in it, you should ask him. Maybe he knows what you're seeing."

"You think so?" Davis asked and Lita did.

"I'll even go with you. This dream sounds like it's a big deal." Lita said.

"Thanks. You're a pretty good friend." Davis said.

"Hopefully more one day." Lita whispered.

"What?" Davis said, but Lita just laughed nervously.

…

Davis' Apartment

Some dark clouds were starting to head over Odaiba and began to cover the sky. Davis and Lita hurried back to his apartment and made it there.

"There you are, Davis! I was starting to get worried you would have been caught in the rain." Gina said.

"Who is this lovely lady?" Jack said.

"This is Lita. Another friend I made at the academy." Davis said.

"Hello there." Lita said.

"So why did you take off earlier?" Veemon asked.

"Sorry. A little business about school." Davis said. "Dad, there's something I need to ask you."

"Okay. What is it?" Jack asked.

"I've been having this dream constantly and you're in it. Lita thinks it might be an old memory that I wasn't aware of." Davis said. "There's this crash, machines, and it's raining while there's a fire going on. I also hear a baby crying and just before I wake up, I see you in it. Do you have any idea what that could be?" Hearing about this dream caused Gina to drop a glass and it shattered on the floor. "Mom, are you okay?"

"They looked pretty shocked." Lita said. The faces on both of his parents were that of surprise with their eyes widened.

"What's with them? They look like they've seen a ghost." Veemon said.

"Mom? Dad?" Davis said as he didn't understand what was going on.

"Gina, it's time." Jack said.

"No, Jack!" Gina said.

"We have to tell him." Jack said.

"Tell me what?" Davis said and what he found out caused his entire world to shatter.

"Davis….you're not our real son." Jack said. Davis, Veemon, and Lita couldn't believe it with the rain starting to come down.

"What?" Davis said.

"It happened about sixteen years ago." Gina said.

"It happened when the three of us were coming home from a vacation." Jack said as he remembered it like it was yesterday. "It was raining like now. We were on our way back to Odaiba when we saw there was a car on fire after some sort of crash. We stepped out to see if anyone needed help and we heard the cries of a baby. We found one on the street and wasn't harmed. That baby was you."

"No way!" Lita said.

"So Davis was really adopted?" Veemon said.

"We didn't find anyone else and since we found you, we took it as our responsibility to raise you since there was no clue as to where you came from or who you really were." Gina said.

"How…How could you keep this from me?" Davis said as his bangs covered his eyes.

"We've always meant to tell you, but we didn't know how." Jack said. "You were too young to understand and by the time you were old enough, we were afraid we were too late." Davis trembled from hearing this story and Lita and Veemon were getting concerned about him. "Davis, you're still our son. It doesn't change anything."

"You two have been lying to me this entire time?!" Davis shouted with tears ready to spill out of his eyes with a mix of sadness and rage. "I can't believe this! So my entire life has been a lie?!"

"Of course not." Gina said.

"You're not my real parents. Now I don't know who my parents are or even if they're alive." Davis said. "I can't believe you kept something like this from me! You've been lying to me my whole life!"

"Davis, it wasn't like that at all." Jack said as stepped closer to him.

"No!" Davis shouted. "This is insane. My whole life has been a lie. This isn't my family and I'm not really suppose to have this life? Both of you just stay away from me!" Davis turned right around and ran out the door.

"Davis!" Veemon called out as he and Lita ran after him. Gina was practically crying herself for she felt like she lost her baby boy and Jack felt horrible. He knew he should have told Davis the truth before. As Davis runs through the rain, he looks back on his life and saw it was all lies. Now his life will never be the same.

….

Veemon: Hi. Veemon, here. I'm stepping in for Davis since he's dealing with some personal issues. I can't imagined what it's like finding out you were really adopted. He hasn't left his room since he got back to the academy and everyone is trying to figure out how to help him. The problem is that they don't know how.

Next Time: Snap Davis Back

If they're good friends, they're going to do whatever it is they can to help him through this.
