Chapter 3

Parrotmon Incident

Although Apocalymon had been defeated, there was still trouble in the Digital World. Time was still out of sync with the real world and stability was not the same. Unbeknownst to MIB, the patches they created years earlier were out of date and the portals were vulnerable to access; Digimon could enter the real world or people could enter the Digital World. Shortly after Apocalymon's defeat Gennai wrote in his report:

"Although Apocalymon has been contained, it might pose a future threat down the road if we don't take further action. The Digidestined were successful in combating this menace, but we may need them to return to eliminate it once and for all for the sake of both worlds.

Since computer technology has advanced in recent times, it might be necessary to upgrade the patches we made on the portals that connect the real world and the Digital World. If a civilian were to tap into one of these portals and enter the digital world or a Digimon were to enter the real world, there could be chaos. Even worse if Apocalymon were to escape and enter the real world. I highly advise that immediate action be taken."

Zed agreed with Gennai's report and ordered that new patches be created and coded for the safety of both worlds. But it was too late.

One of the main hotspots for portal activity was in Odaiba, Tokyo. One evening in 1995, a Digi-egg came through the home computer of the Kamiya residence. Unknown to Gennai, a new generation of Digidesined were in the works and given a test. The two children, Tai and Kari, were very small at this time. They didn't know what the egg was and decided to hatch it and take care of whatever it was that came from it.

MIB immediately responded to the disturbance and K was dispatched to investigate and contain the incident. Upon arrival, he noted that everything run by computers was going haywire. Surprisingly, the streets were quiet. While walking around attempting to detect where the Digimon was, he was all of a sudden hit with a pepper breath attack. He saw Tai and Kari chasing Greymon. "I hope they don't get hurt", he thought to himself. He then, received word from Gennai that another Digimon had crossed the portal into the real world and was a giant egg. The egg hatched into Parrotmon and locked in battle with Greymon, as the children watched in awe. Six other children watched from a distance.

Using a special digivice, K opened up the portal and sent Greymon and Parrotmon back to the Digital World. He then took Tai and Kari home where they were safe. He used the neurilizer on them, with an adjusted setting. He gently explained to them that Greymon was a dream. He did the same for the other witnesses. For the general population, the explanation he gave was that the damage that was done to the neighborhood was the result of a terrorist bombing. Although, the incident was largely forgotten and dismissed, Kari's memory of Greymon remained intact. K was not too concerned if some of the child witnesses retained memory, because their stories relating to the incident would not be taken seriously and thus no threat to security.
