Children of the Legend
By: Kari Minamoto
Chapter 2- Save the World, Again!
Author's Note: Thank you so much for the reviews! They really help boost my confidence that people are taking the time to read this fanfic.
Dragi- that is a really is a good idea you have that I hadn't thought of. If I can I might put it into a later chapter, if not I just could not incorporate it into the story line that I have set up in my head at the moment.
Jack the Ripper- season 4 is very different from the seasons proceeding it. In it the children do not have digimon partners but have inherited the spirits of the legendary warriors. They were chosen to save the world from Cherubimon who was overcome by evil. He became possessed by the evil Lucemon, a digimon the original warriors had sealed away. He returns and the digital world is destroyed; after the children defeat Lucemon the world is brought back and they return home. The children are: Takuya Kanbara- the soccer loving, goggle-headed leader who sometimes acts without thinking and lands everyone in trouble, his heart is in the right place though (kind of like Tai). He posses the Spirits of Fire: Human Spirit: Agunimon, Beast Spirit: BurningGreymon. Kouji is like Matt, he is a loner and likes to be by himself and considers the others useless at first, they grow on him and he eventually finds out they aren't that bad. He posses the Spirits of Light: human spirit: Lobomon, Beast Spirit: KendoGarurumon. Zoe is the only girl in the group and freely speaks her mind, she really wants friend and had been living in Italy for a few years when the season takes place. Zoe secretly likes Takuya. She has the Spirit of Wind: Human Spirit: Kazemon, Beast Spirit: Zephermon. Tommy is a lot like the season 1 T.K. He cries a lot in the beginning and depends on the others a little too much. As time goes on he overcomes many of his fears and becomes quite brave. He has the Spirit of Ice: Human Spirit: Kumamon, Beast Spirit: Korikkakumon. J.P. is the oldest member of the group. He loves food and chocolate and wasn't crazy about the digital world at first. During the season he has a major crush on Zoe which sometimes led him into trouble. J.P. has the Spirit of Thunder: Human Spirit: Beetlemon, Beast Spirit: MetalKabuterimon. Kouichi is the most complex character. He is Kouji's twin and was only a spirit in the digital world. He was once posses by evil but becomes good when the team purifies him (He acts a lot like Ken.)Later he sacrifices himself to save the others (he doesn't die though). Kouichi possesses the Spirit of Darkness; the purified spirits are: Human Spirit: Lowemon, Beast Spirit: JagerLowemon. If this isn't enough I suggest you try it summarizes every episode. As for your other questions you'll just have to read to see what happens.
I also had midyears this week so it's been harder to find time to write. Anyways, you probably don't want to listen to me babble here for the whole fic so here it is.
Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon at all, just this story line.
Takuya could not believe who had just called his cell phone. At first he thought he was dreaming when he heard her voice, but knew he was not.
"Takuya, I must warn the others and you that there is an impending evil coming to your world. It is after the six of you and the spirits of the Ancient Ones. It could destroy you, the city, and even the world. The spirits are hidden in your world. D-Tectors… Find… your world… It … coming… soon… prepared… help," said Ophanimon.
Whatever Ophanimon wanted to tell Takuya got cut short, but he knew just what to do next.
His friends' activities had just gotten out a few minutes before. Takuya decided to call them for an important meeting of the Legendary Warriors. He called them all and told them to meet at his house at 4:00 p.m.
At 4:00 p.m. all the Legendary Warriors were assembled in Takuya's bedroom for the meeting. Takuya then told the team what Ophanimon had said about an approaching evil. Kouji was the first person to respond to what Takuya had said.
"Well, where are we supposed to start? We don't have any idea what this new evil is and we don't have the D-Tectors or spirits either," Kouji said.
"There must be some way of figuring it out. I mean we've dealt with worse than this and the spirits are in our world," was Takuya's answer to the question.
His answer did not help the team much.
"My suggestion is that we keep a low profile since we don't have the D-Tectors and with our luck this evil will be after us," said Kouichi.
"I agree with Kouichi on this, guys, I mean, we have no clue what we are up against," said Zoe.
J.P. and Tommy also agreed with Kouichi's idea. It was quickly decided that none of them would discuss anything about the digital world when in public. It would attract the attention of someone looking for them to easily. They also did not know the location of the spirits yet so it would be pointless to try and defend themselves against this evil without them.
The team was on a mission now, find the D-Tectors, the spirits, and save the world, again.
It had been several days since the 02 team had been given the news of the Legendary Children they had to find. They knew that the children had to exist because Gennai would not send them on a wild goose hunt; at least they did not think he would.
Izzy and Ken were working after school in the computer lab on Monday researching information on the internet about strange events in the past few years. Yolei was at the table in the lab decoding her pages of the book Gennai gave the other twelve digidestined. The only other person in the lab besides the three of them was a 10th grader named Kouji Minamoto who was only two computers away but looked like he was deeply immersed in a geography project.
Izzy and Ken felt it was safe to talk about what they were looking for since the boy looked very preoccupied with his project.
"Ken, have you found anything useful yet?" Izzy asked after three hours of research and finding nothing useful.
"No." Ken replied, "The most mysterious report I found was about a kidnapping from six years ago that ended up with the kid being found at his uncles house in China last year."
Ken did not bother to ask Izzy if he found anything because he knew that if Izzy had found something he would have told him. A couple minutes later Izzy practically screamed, "Ken look at this!"
Izzy was so loud that even Kouji looked away from his computer to see what was going on. He then started to grumble about the noise in the computer lab and his partner for the project who had ditched him for soccer practice.
Izzy did realize something odd in the boy's reaction though. He seemed to be shaken at the picture and news article that Izzy had found on the computer. Kouji quickly masked the alarmed look on his face seconds later and turned back to the computer. Izzy wondered if it was his imagination playing games with his head.
Izzy and Ken thought that Kouji was not listening now since he seemed to be engaged in his project once again. In reality, however, Kouji was trying to listen to every word that they said without drawing suspicion to himself.
"Ken," said Izzy "look at this article! I can't even believe I forgot about this! It's all about the electrical discharge that happened four years ago. Listen to this:
Electrical Discharge or something Else
The government of Japan will not release much information on the electrical discharge that appeared to happen at the Shibuya Station this weekend. No source will tell the media why it looked like a giant dragon. The only answer we got was that's what electrical discharges do when they occur. Some scientists think that it might be some sort of sign of alien presence; other people suspect it is a terrorist attack. We may never know the truth.
Ken finished the article and still did not see anything besides a suspicious electrical discharge. This is what he thought Izzy wanted him to see. So he asked, "Do you want to investigate this area or something for clues?"
"No! Don't you see the picture included with the article," Izzy said.
"Yeah, but I don't really see anything really strange about it, except for a picture of the supposed electrical discharge, Ken answered.
"Let me magnify the picture and then maybe you'll see what I do," Izzy said.
Izzy punched a lot of difficult commands into the computer and was able to magnify the picture he was talking about. As soon as the image was magnified Ken saw what Izzy had found. Right below the dragon was a humanoid figure, but it definitely was not human. The picture was black and white and blurred from being magnified so many times. The two digidestined knew it was a digimon, even without a clear image of it.
"I bet this is…," started Izzy but was quickly interrupted by a voice that shouted, "Buddy!"
Takuya came bursting into the room toward Kouji, his partner for a geography project. As soon as Takuya entered Kouji signed off and started to leave.
Takuya was stumped by this. His friend really wanted the project finished but he was leaving. He decided to ask what was going on.
"What's up Kouji? I thought you wanted to finish this project before the weekend?" asked Takuya.
"I do but there is something more important I need to talk to you about now but not here. Let's go to my house to work on the project and I'll tell you" said Kouji.
"Um, okay buddy, but what is up?" asked Takuya.
"I already told you that I'll tell you later. Let's go," was Kouji's reply.
With that the two friends left to go to Koujis house.
Izzy was very happy that Kouji had left, for no reason in particular. He just felt that Kouji had been listening to their conversation. Ken and Izzy could here the two friends going down the hall. Takuya trying to get information out of Kouji and Kouji with his you'll have to wait.
As soon as they could no longer hear Kouji and Takuya's voices Izzy continued with what he had started to say before.
"As I was saying, I think this is a clue to finding out who these mysterious children are. This is definitely a digimon and it appeared four years ago which is when they supposedly saved the world," said Izzy, "but the only problem is we are no closer to actually finding the children unless we ask every single one in Japan which is impossible. I think we should try to ask help from Gennai on this, what do you think Ken?"
"I think we should try to find the children on our own first. Gennai is trying to get information about the children Ophanimon and some of the digimon are trying to find these children's partners. None of them have had any luck yet so we should leave them to their missions and handle our own," said Ken.
Yolei than came over to join them and gave Ken a kiss on the cheek and joined the conversation.
"I've completed most of the pages that I've been assigned but I haven't come across anything useful yet, except there are either five or six chosen children. I've come across both numbers a lot, what about you guys, said Yolei.
Izzy and Ken went into a detailed description of how and what they found. Yolei also agreed that it was defiantly a digimon in the picture, but none of them could figure out what digimon it was. Izzy's Digimon Analyzer did not even recognize it. This puzzled the team but did not dampen their enthusiasm and determination to find the children.
Izzy then brought up a peculiar subject. He wanted to talk about the boy, Kouji, who had been in the computer lab.
"I think that boy Kouji was suspicious, especially when he saw the picture of the digimon. It only appeared on his face for a second, but it looked like an expression of astonishment and recognition. It might have been my imagination though since I am so determined to find these children, and just am trying to find them everywhere. What do you two think?" asked Izzy.
The other two digidestined thought that someone should look into why he thought Koujis expression was suspicious but not to get accusatory and have someone else question him without being obvious.
"I think that maybe you should ask Kari, Cody, or Matt to do this. It is less suspicious to have a teacher or guidance counselor do it than the person who runs the computer lab," Yolei said.
The three of them agreed to call Kari, Cody, and Matt later to see if any of them could talk to Kouji without arousing suspicion.
Kouji and Takuya were now at Koji's house. They had finished their project quickly since Kouji had refused to tell him anything until it was finished.
Now that the project was done the two of them were eating a snack and Kouji was about to tell Takuya what he had seen and heard when his twin brother Kouichi came in.
Kouji knew he would now have to tell both Takuya and his brother.
Today, while in the computer lab, I was in there with Mr. Izumi and some other guy he knows and they were going through old articles, Kouji began. "The article that caught his attention was about the "electrical discharge" or as we know it Lucemon. Here is the thing though, Susanoomon was in the picture, blurred but there and they seemed transfixed by it. They were about to say something about it when you barged in and so I decided to leave so it wouldn't look suspicious. I had told them earlier I was just waiting for you."
Kouichi, Kouji, and Takuya decided at that moment, no matter who talked about digimon or even if they saw one, would they say they knew what a digimon was for fear of the evil that was to come.
To be continued…
Okay that is a really weak chapter but I wanted both teams to have some suspicion about the other. I again say that I'm sorry for the bad chapter.
Also, I might not get a chance to update for a week or two because I have to write a paper on Dead Poet's Society and Transcendentalism I also have to do a project on Transcendentalism over February break. I will really try hard to update over the break or before it though.
Please read and review.
Thanks!
