Digimon Adventure: Return of The First
Chapter 2: The First's Story
Gennai began his tale, "Long ago by digital world records 5 Digi-destined children were brought to the digital world, Suzuka, Shizuki, Haori, Shiku, and Mana. These five children were the first to be brought here and much like your reaction didn't know where they were. Mana was the first to make contact with the digimon. His partner was a Gazimon. They both had an opposite reaction to meeting eachother but like all relations they grew to become a devastatingly powerful team. Haori grew with her partner Lunamon, Suzuka with Coronamon, Shiku with Kunemon, and Shizuki with Dorumon.
The five children were brought into a warzone, the world was constantly at war, darkness and light powerful digimon strong enough to destroy countries in a single blow. Over a period of the 3 years in the digital world Mana led the rest being the responsible one and the one who accepted the burden of destroying digimon for the peace this world deserved. All those that couldn't accept peace and made it their choice to ruin any peace created was what set Mana aside from the rest of the group. He reformatted them. Over the next 5 years Mana spent his life raising the digimon he had reformatted in Digital World so that a peaceful world could be made, the others helped out, but Mana did more, he helped build the towns that are here to date in the digital world.
During the last two years that they were here the great evils that had been behind the dark curtain manipulating the strings had appeared, the original 4 Dark Masters, ChaosApoclymon, Armaggedamon, Ornismon, and their Leader, Milleniummon. They wreaked havoc upon the unsuspecting population Armaggedamon was the first to fall, he was deleted by Mana but defeated by Haori and Suzuka. Ornismon fell to Shizuki and Shiku, ChaosApoclymon was sealed away behind the firewall by Mana. On the night before the fight with Milleniummon, the group went their separate ways, because of that argument Milleniummon took advantage of them and attacked each of them on their own. Shizuki, Shiku, Haori and Suzuka were defeated. Mana stepped up using his crest of Darkness and combining it with his digivice to digivolve his digimon to super ultimate to fight Milleniummon but he was still defeated.
Realizing that the world that they had saved was in danger, and that his friends would be killed Mana did the unthinkable. He sent his friends and partner digimon through the digital gate to another area far away from the Dark Continent. Mana used the power of his crest and digivice to open the Dark Abyss, a territory that's different from the Dark Ocean a place their was no escape from, using its power through his own body he changed the landscape of the dark continent turning into into the gloomy area we see today. But with that he deleted Milleniummon, but at the last moment Milleniummon digivolved into ZeedMilleniummon, and used his polar eternity on Mana, although ZeedMilleniummon was sealed in the dark abyss for eternity. Mana paid the ultimate sacrifice, his body became sealed in crystal for eternity. His digivice and crest revealed that he was intended to be the Digidestined of Darkness and when he realized this its probably when he planned it the night before. When his friends and I came to find our hero, who defeated the Great Evil, we found him, but it wasn't the ending we hoped for. Mana lost his life in order to protect a world not his own and there are now a select few left in the digital world that lost their best friend. This was 8 years before you 8 came to the world the first time." Gennai wiped a tear from his face.
