Author's Note: Hopefully I can get out as much chapters as possible! Well hope you enjoy!

It can't be right. It must be an illusion. Yet why do I have this really bad feeling? Why can't I just let it go and move on? I realize that I can't, simply because I know I can't just relax. It's far too important to ignore. I was given this task as the High School Principal. This is the task I received that in the end could change and even endanger the entire world.

I am right now observing a stone. This stone however is not ordinary. If one would observe it then you could see the small engravings that are all over the stone. You see, I was given this stone by organizations bent on one purpose. They were all involved with the legend of the Dark Conquerors. Yes, a legend that was a children's bedtime story but I knew better than that. I was told the real truth. They were real. All of it was going to happen but the problem is that they wouldn't know when.

That's why there are tons of organizations. These organizations have come up with many reactions to this legend. All of them agree to the avoiding of this to come true. In the end though all of them also agree in the destruction of the Dark Conquerors if this goes too far.

I'm part of their plan you see. As the principal of a school full of "gifted" students, they had picked this place, one of many; to be monitored. After all, the Dark Conquerors were bound to be gifted. Who knows what powers they could possess? They gave me this enchanted stone which is to serve as my alarm for them. They told me if is glows brightly then that means the Dark Conquerors were here. Once we find them I am given another task, a task I hopefully won't be troubled with.

The problem right now though is that something is going wrong. The rock was flickering. It wasn't glowing but sometimes I catch it exhibiting a tiny amount of light in one second then it was gone the next. I keep telling myself it was a trick of the light or I'm just imagining things. Hopefully it is those things because if it isn't than that could mean one thing. The Dark Conquerors are right now at that moment in the academy.

"I can't believe you guys are actually going to do this!" Mikan said as she was trying her best to drag Yoh and Tai Chi back to their dorms. In the process though, she herself got dragged along the ground they were walking on.

"We might as well. Who knows? Maybe after this, Natsume will stop trying to be a jerk." Yoh said as he continued to walk beside Tai Chi and didn't seem to mind Mikan's efforts at all.

"So, why are you guys coming?" Tai Chi said facing towards the rest of the group composing of Yamato, Sora, Chihiro and Meruka who were dragging a fidgeting Hitomi. In fact, even Takeru and Hikari were there trailing after them.

"Well, I want to support big brother. Plus I hear that guy has this dangerous power so I'm here to help you if you get hurt." Hikari said while smiling.

"Hikari's right. We've been through together so much that I guess we can't help but want to try help and support you. That's what best friends are for" Yamato said with Sora and Takeru nodding their heads in agreement.

Tai Chi smiled. He then turned to the three girls wherein Meruka and Chihiro were really giving their all to try to tame Hitomi who looked deadly.

"Oh" Chihiro realized that the rest were wondering why were they coming along "Well, we have many reasons. One is because we feel close with you guys already so it's normal for friends to support friends. Two is because we actually want to see how this will go and finally because we kinda feel bad that our stupid friend started this in the first place" Chihrio ended then sighed as she glanced at the struggling Hitomi.

"I said I was sorry" Hitomi said while trying to remove the grasp of her friends "Why do I have to come?"

"You might as well see it to the end" Meruka said to Hitomi which gave off a cold feeling towards Hitomi.

The group was smiling and laughing despite of what would happen once they enter the forest. Right now, they were enjoying the moment. Even though Mikan kept on reprimanding them for how they reacted they still didn't really care. In fact, Yoh and Tai Chi were actually excited to fight. They haven't used their powers for a really long time. Tai Chi missed seeing his digimon friend, Agumon.

They were so excited that once they saw the forest they even walked faster towards it to the dismay of Mikan who was still hanging on to the two.

The forest was nicely shaded and the trees blocked the view of those passersby from seeing their fight. When they entered the forest though, they felt an amount of heat. Mikan realizing that this heat came from the flame caster tried even harder to pull on the two.

"Well…I'm glad you guys didn't chicken out" said Natsume who had just jumped down from the tree above them. He landed softly and swiftly on the ground with a tiny thud. From behind a tree Ruka revealed himself. Apparently he was waiting with Natsume for this fight. Ruka looked even more nervous and worried then earlier that morning.

"Why would we?" Yoh simply said while giving off glares towards Natsume.

"Well, the cowards usually do" Natsume replied while smirking "Anyway enough talking how about we start with it?"

"Fine by me" Tai Chi said with Yoh nodding in agreement

With that, the spectators walked to the side within safe distance from the fight. With their powers who knows what could happen? The problem was Hitomi was struggling until now but finally she broke free from her friends' clutches.

"Finally! I'm free" Hitomi exclaimed and ran off.

"Hitomi!" Chihiro shouted towards the place where Hitomi run off "Come back here!" with that Chihiro started running after Hitomi.

After watching her two friends depart Meruka simply sighed and turned to the rest. "Sorry guys, we have to take care of the problem that is Hitomi. We'll try to come back as soon as possible." With that Meruka departed from the group running in the same direction as her friends.

The group then turned back to what was happening to the three.

"Are you ready now?" Natsume said as he brought out a flame from his hand.

"One second…" Tai Chi said as he brought out something. Natsume was clearly puzzled from this item. It seemed to be a gadget that he has never seen. It had a square screen in the middle of a circle with inscriptions on it. The device it self seemed to be like a plus sign with the top and bottom sign a little longer the sides. This interested those who didn't know what it was in the first place.

Suddenly this machine started glowing. It was glowing with this incredible bright light. Before you knew it right beside Tai Chi appeared a circle glowing with a bright orange light. It was turning and turning and it grew bigger. As the circle grew big enough, out came a creature that was new to Natsume, Mikan, Ruka and Yoh. It looked like a T-rex yet it was the size of a dog and it was orange in appearance. Stunned by this creature none of them could speak.

"Long time no see" Tai Chi said while smiling towards the dinosaur replica.

"Yup! A very long time!" the creature said towards Tai Chi as it smiled. This really creeped out Mikan.

"It can speak!!!!" Mikan shouted as she was stunned by the thing that appeared before her eyes.

"Huh?" Tai Chi asked in confusion. That's when it hit him "Oh I'm sorry. I forgot that you've never seen him before" he said while scratching his head in apology "This is my friend and digimon partner, Agumon"

"Hi there" Agumon said cheerily towards Mikan.

"Uh…h-hi?" Mikan replied as she was still shocked at what was before her eyes

"Hello" Agumon said and waved towards Sora, Yamato, Takeru and Hikari with them waving back and replying.

Natsume who finally snapped out from the surprise of this new creature spoke "Well…if you guys are done, can we get on with it now?"

Yoh spoke not quite yet. Yoh then smiled as he brought stretched and brought out a sword that was wrapped in some cloth.

"Oh, so that was what you were carrying" Tai Chi said as he looked at the sword in curiosity "Wait…hold on…you have a sword?"

Yoh replied "You have a dinosaur as your partner?"

"Touché." was all Tai Chi could say as he laughed at Yoh reply.

"So you're going to fight with a weapon huh?" Natsume said "Is your power swordsmanship or something?" Natsume asked critically.

"Not really" Yoh said. Suddenly it seemed like a sphere of fog suddenly appeared near Yoh's Sword. He suddenly said something that confused everybody "Amidamaru into the sword" Suddenly his sword for some reason was glowing the same way as that ball that was floating near Yoh's sword earlier. It seemed as if the sphere had taken over the sword. That's when it hit the rest. The sword seemed to take a different shape. In fact it's as if there was a piece of armor on Yoh's upper arm and in the process the glowing reached up to his arm.

"This is one of the things I can do" Yoh said as he readied himself in stance as if ready to jolt.

Tai Chi simply chucked as he prepared alongside with Agumon

"Tch" Natsume simply said as he got ready to fight too. "Maybe this might be fun." he finished with a smirk.
