AN: I have a few things to say, first, I hate this old computer it makes so many damn problems in my writing! Second, The characters in this series use DNA Charge because of the digivices they use, just to clarify for people who didn't play Dawn or Dusk (like my friends and I may switch between that and Digisoul charge so excuse me). Lastly, no David's encounter at night in the hall was not a continuity error. There are five doors in the hallway, one to the kitchen and family rooms, Koh and Sayo's room next to it, bathroom opposite to those. On the other side of the hall one door goes upstairs to David's room and the other room is obviously Alice's. With all that said and done, here's chapter 7.

David:

"First match, David and Taiyo vs Neo and Nico." For this match I was planning on going with Kotemon instead of Coronamon, namely since the former was stronger at the moment. "Let the battle begin!"

"Kotemon let's finish this quick, DNA charge!" We all had the same idea. Patamon and Light Fang's Biyomon and Renamon all Digivolved.

"Dinohyumon!"

"Angemon!"

"Birdramon!"

"Kyubimon!" The battle started with Birdramon's Meteor Wing scattering Dinohyumon and Angemon.

"Fox Tail Inferno!" It started charging flames on its tail. Dinohyumon wouldn't be fast enough to get out of the way, nor did he have any good range.

"Little help?" Taiyo nodded.

"Angemon, Holy Arrow!" A golden spear molded into Angemon's hand, at incredible speed it struck Kyubimon as it was ready to fire its attack.

"Akinades!" Dinohyumon gripped it largest blade and charged forth. Birdramon began swooping down on Dinohyumon.

"Dinohyumon, go with that move we practiced last night!" He swung his sword to the ground and propelled himself into the air.

"Dragon Dance!" He spun in the air and made a spiraling cut across Birdramon's back and wings, effectively taking it out of the fight.

"Angemon, let's wrap this up, Angel Baton!" On cue it swatted Kyubimon with its staff and sent it flying in Dinohyumon's direction. With a mighty blow taken, Kyubimon hit the ground and degenerated to Renamon as Birdramon had gone to Biyomon.

"We have a winner, David and Taiyo!" We'd won, but I wondered what was going on with Alice and Chris' fight right now.

Chris:

Things with Alice were not going good. We were fighting against Night Crow's Stein and Shade, and they were using Dark Tyrannomon and Vilemon. Gabumon had digivolved to Garurumon, but this wasn't going well.

Between the siblings, David was definitely better to work with. Honestly the best partners were my Sister and Scott, probably since they were the aggressive ones. David's problem was that he thought everyone liked him, and that was mostly true. Alice had to be in charge. Partners? Nope she's in charge. Someone else in charge? Prepare for a mutiny.

"Both of you attack that Vilemon!" They tried again only to be swatted away by DarkTyrannomon. This was one sided, only way out of this was if Agumon could Digivolve to something that could best or equal DarkTyrannomon.

"Alice will you stop giving orders?! This is a dictatorship that I'm not going to be a part of!"

"..."

"I'm ready boss!" Agumon waved out to me.

"Let's go Agumon, DNA... Charge!" He grew several times in size, ending up slightly taller than Dark Tyrannomon, he then sprouted horns and a longer tail.

"Greymon!" He bellowed a fierce roar, even DarkTyrannomon was intimidated.

"DarkTyrannomon, Darkfire!" Stein was clearly trying to get rid of Greymon fast.

"Greymon, Nova Blast, full power!" A great fireball went through DarkTyrannomon's and toppled the behemoth onto Vilemon. "Alice, now's the time!"

"Right! Garurumon!"

"Wolf Fire!" He losed a blue flame that hit the enemy Digimon like a tidal wave and flowed over them, effectively frying them, mmm... I could go for something to eat about now. Victory steak sounds good, Digivolving takes a LOT out of you, partner and Tamer, especially seeing that was the first time I went to Champion. I felt like I was going to pass out, but was fully awake when I saw what was going on with Cassidy's fight.

Cassidy:

We were up against the worst possible people. Last years runner-ups were intimidating Hanbei fought with Thundermon, and Kanbei with Bakemon. Intimidating to me! I wreak havoc and terrify all!

"Scott?" I pulled out my digivice.

"Got it, Candlemon, let's go, Charge!"

"Charge!"

"Candlemon digivolve to..." His whole body was covered in flame and changed to be in shape of a tall man, on fire. "Meramon!"

Monodramon changed to a form that was somewhere between himself and Dinohyumon. "Strikedramon!"

"Meramon, attack!" More flames started manifesting at Meramon's hands.

"Tidal Flame!" My motto is enjoy the badass things in life, this definitely makes that list. Wave of fire, doesn't get much better than that. Meramon was laughing his head off. "I got 'em!" The flames stayed constant until a segment started to ripple slightly.

"Static charge!" Thundermon covered in electricity rammed into Meramon through the flames, Meramon made more flames in a hand.

"You're gonna burn little guy, Roaring Flame!" Bakemon warped behind Meramon with a wicked grin as Thundermon took the hit.

"Scott, look out!"

"Hell's Hand!" A demonic hand appeared from Bakemon and stabbed at Meramon with its claws.

"Ah, that stings dammit!"

"Let's go Strikedramon, attack!" The metal armor he wore turned white hot.

"Strike Fang!" He rammed into Bakemon, then flipped off of it onto Thundermon. Hanbei began laughing.

"Guess you're winning the hundred bits Kanbei, all right then." He pulled out his digivice. "DNA, Full Charge." I was stunned, couldn't say a word I was so scared.

"Thundermon digivolve to..." He morphed into a small cylinder with arms. "Datamon!"

"Datamon if you would please, I've got a nice bed waiting for me at home." Holes opened up at Datamon's fingertips.

"Plug Bomb!" Something came out of its fingers and flew up to our Digimon's heads. With a massive detonation I knew what happened, we just lost.

Maria:

"I don't believe it, Scott of all people lost." Ryan looked at the screen both observing and intimidated.

"We should be the ones who are worried. If... no when, we win, our next fight would be against them."

"Crap." Veemon started thinking aloud.

"That chump is my size, how did he beat Strikedramon and Meramon? I could take him in my Champion form!"

"Now that's the question of the year," Ryan said smugly.

"Simply it's because he was at the Ultimate level," said Wormmon.

"We should probably worry about the fight we have now."

"True, let's go besides, Wormmon and I have fought Ultimates before." We stepped onto the teleporter and into the arena, our opposition Sol and Rebecca of Light Fang were using Monochromon and Grizzlymon.

"Veemon." I pulled my Digivice, these two weren't anything special. "Digisoul charge," I said flatly.

"You got it boss, Veemon digivolve to..." Veemon grew to a size and shape similar to that of Greymon. "Veedramon!"

"Stingmon!" Wait... when did Ryan... nevermind. Grizzlymon started charging forward.

"All right, Veedramon, take this guy out." As Grizzlymon came closer, Veedramon swatted it away with his tail.

"V-Breath Arrow!" He loosed a blue flame and blasted Grizzlymon into Monochromon with power that could easily rival Greymon's Nova Blast.

"Monochromon, attack!" He started glowing a reddish hue.

"Volcanic Strike!" It tried blasting Stingmon with blobs of fire, with the latter effortlessly avoiding each blast and speeding towards its attacker.

"Spiking Strike!" A purple blade protruded from his arm and he stabbed at Monochromon, who then degenerated to Gotsumon as he took the heavy hit.

"Grizzlymon, get him!" It made several heavy swings at Stingmon, with Ryan luring it into Veedramon's clear shot area. Stingmon flipped back and Veedramon knew it was time to attack.

"V-Breath Arrow!" His target was struck dead on with much more power than the first one and we saw it fly halfway to the ceiling before coming back down and crashing next to Gotsumon. Easy, all these fights have been easy.

"That's one fight down." I looked up at the matchups, and our opponents segment on the board faded.

"But a tougher one tomorrow..." Ryan waved and headed out, and I left soon after. I couldn't lose after all I've done, from a near dropout to top of my class, and now a Tamer, and this once seemed like an impossibility. I sighed and headed for home.

That night at David and Alice's house:

"It seemed like just yesterday they were still trying to kill each other and now they're taking their first steps to becoming great Tamers," said Sayo as she watched their kids head to their rooms for the night.

"The fact we say that so calmly... ah sweet memories. Remember that time David tried to set fire to Alice's room?"

"Yep, blamed your Agumon... how about when Alice tried poisoning his food?"

"She did? Wow, guess she can cause trouble sometimes. You know I've been thinking, we should have..."

"If you say another kid, I'm going to slap you and have you sleep on the couch for a month. You're not the one who had to put up with them for nine months each, and I'm talking parasitically." They stood next to their bed now having just locked up for the night.

"Parasites?"

"Exactly like that."

"Let's just stop here and say that I had to deal with you, with mood swings, asking for food every fifteen minutes not to mention always keeping something to use as a weapon nearby. You seriously tried killing me more times than everything else that's tried."

"I was not that bad."

"Yes, yes you were."

SMACK! Sayo was quick with her hand, but brutally strong, the strike mark was already a bright red and her husband was on the ground. "Sorry!"

"Ow... haven't felt like that in 11 years, couple extra moments to flash before my eyes."

"Are you alright?" Koh started getting up.

"Yes, at least you weren't trying to strangle me again." Sayo's face went blank as she brought back the memory of doing that slightly before David was born twelve years prior. "And I was going to say we should have a family vacation and photo."

"Oh... sorry about that..."

"We ought to check for that soon though, we were at it for a while the other night."

"Ugh, I'm still sore." They both sighed at the thought of another child in the house, then crawled in bed, falling right asleep.

AN/Q&A: Sorry this is a bit late. As of now there are three people working on this, all of us with extremely tight schedules. There's myself and a friend, both of us in High School, and a cousin of mine in College. She wrote the last part with Koh and Sayo, and while it changes the story in a significant way, this'll work perfectly. How? I mentioned a certain organization a few chapters back I'll just say it involves that. Cough*cover too*Cough Only Q's I got were IRL from some people that my friend showed this to.

1. What's Ryan and Taiyo's back stories? They seem thrown in there.

Well, that tough to explain, as you're reading this I'm working on chapter 8 (maybe) and it's explained there.

2. You say that each of the eight main characters gets multiple partners, how many and can you tell us what they are?

I can't tell you what they'll be but each Tamer will have three partners, all able to go to Mega and a few with multiple Digivolution lines. Sound confusing to remember? Well on my profile page I have a poor man's digivolution map so check that out, it'll be up to date with what's going on at the moment, not exactly in the far future.

3. Who is you favorite character?

God, that is a tough one. They're all like my children or... just close relatives... so it's hard to choose, David and Alice get the most Spotlight because they're the most central but my favorite character is Ryan partly because I loved how he made his Debut, but I'll later show what makes him truly shine.

I've been the Digital Knight of Heroes, and I'll see you all next time.
