Its been about a year and a half since the Digimon Network went public, both Amber and I never thought it would be so popular but that's an understatement, I never expected the legendary tamers who saved the world from the D-reaper themselves would be here.

"So, this is the battle network? Pretty lame if you ask me." Said the redhead tomboy Rika Nonaka "now now Rika, don't knock it till you try it." Said the cool headed Henry Wong "yeah, momentai Rika" said Henry's partner Terriermon "wow, this is awesome!" said the leader of the trio Takato Matsuki " do you think they have bread here?" said the goggle wearers partner Guilmon "is that all you think about Guilmon?" said Rika's partner Renamon.

While they were being introduced to the site I was with my own Digimon partner Amber the Renamon. "Alright Amber let's see if you can dodge this!" I yelled as I charged forward and tried to strike her with a right jab. "nice try Michael but you're gonna have to do better than that" Amber said playfully, that was when we were interrupted by the A.I. program that runs the site I call it terry, it doesn't stand for anything but I thought it needed a name "excuse me sir, but I thought you should know, three new members have entered the network" said the white figure "terry what's the big deal? There are always gonna be new members, why are these guys any different?" I asked taking a sip from my water bottle "yes I understand sir, but when they came in and registered they said their names were Takato Matsuki, Rika Nonaka and Henry Wong." The A.I. explained, causing me to spit out the water and choke afterwards.

"Well, I guess this is pretty cool" Rika said "it certainly is impressive" Renamon said "glad to see you like it Miss Nonaka." I said as I walked up to them "hi, my name is Michael and this is my partner and girlfriend Amber" I said introducing us "we created this place" I finished "hi I'm…" Takato started "no need to introduce yourself Takato we know exactly who you are, you're the legendary tamers who saved the world" I said "it's truly an honor to meet you all" my digital girlfriend said "well, it's nice to meet you too." Takato said "do you have any bread here?" Guilmon asked "Guilmon" Takato complained "it's alright, I can do you one better" I said to the red scaled one "terry, give our guests a buffet" I said to the white figure.

After a meal fit for royalty I gave them a grand tour of the area "not only is Digimon network a place to battle and hang out, but it's also a place that can be a home away from home, and by that I mean you can build your own digital domain." I said showing them different living areas throughout the land "wait we can build our own houses here?" Terriermon asked surprised "yes, terry, the A.I. program that runs the place will build you a house to your specifications." I said "okay that's kind of impressive." Rika said "thanks, that means a lot coming from the Digimon queen." Amber said.

"there's also a battle arena, movie theater, mall and pretty much everything the real world has" I explained "excuse me sir, but it's almost time for your match against Takato and Guilmon" terry alerted us "thanks terry" I said Takato then looked at me confused "what match?" he asked me "I set it up" I said with a smile "cool, our first match is against the creators of Digimon network Guilmon" he said looking at his partner "sounds like fun" he replied "yeah, but that doesn't mean we're going easy on you guys" I said with a smirk "like we'd want it any other way?" Takato said with confidence.

Minutes later all four were in the battle arena facing each other "alright this match is gonna be none other than returning competitor Michael against the leader of the Digimon tamers Takato Matsuki!" the announcing computer said. The crowd went insane with cheers as soon as the goggle wearers name was said "looks like you guys have a lot of fans." I said to him "guess so" both replied

"Ready? Fight!" the P.A. voice said

"Pyro sphere!" Guilmon yelled as he unleashed the fire attack, "Not so fast, Digi-modify, WarGreymon brave shield activate!" I yelled as I slashed the card through my Digivice. The shield appeared in front of my partner blocking the attack "you ready?" Amber asked me "does this answer your question?" I said as it held up both a card and my Digivice "Digi-modify, summon data blade!" I yelled as the sword appeared in front of me. "Come on Takato, show us what you can really do." I yelled at him "you asked for it, Digi-modify, matrix digivolution activate!" Takato yelled "matrix digivolution?" I said in confusion "is that a… BLUE CARD?!" Amber yelled shocked at what she saw "digivolution" said Takato's Digivice "Guilmon matrix digivolve to… WARGROWLMON!" the red cyborg lizard yelled at the top of his lungs "how did you get a blue card?" I asked him "I just kinda wished for it." He answered.

"Oh, I need to try that" I said grabbing a card from my pocket "Digi-modify, matrix digivolution activate!" I yelled as I slashed the now blue card through the Digivice "this is new, Renamon digivolve to… GoldenKyubimon, GoldenKyubimon matrix digivolve to… SacredTaomon!" she said as she transformed into a more mystic priest sorcerer like appearance "so, that's your ultimate form?" I said truly amazed "how do I look?" my girlfriend asked me "not bad, but I still prefer your rookie form" I replied "um are we still fighting?" WarGrowlmon asked "does this answer your question, DATA BLADE MEGA SLASH!" I yelled as I swung the black sword creating a wave of energy knocking the ultimate cyborg back a few feet.

"Mystic spell" my partner yelled as she unleashed a beam of violet colored energy "atomic blaster!" WarGrowlmon yelled as he unleashed a beam of red energy countering SacredTaomon's attack. When both attacks collided it caused an explosion causing both ultimate level Digimon to revert back to their rookie forms Renamon and Guilmon. "Whoa, that's has never happened before." Takato said as we ran to our partners sides "you guys are pretty powerful" I said "I know you guys have something up your sleeves, what was its name again Galantmon?" I said hoping I'd get a chance not only to see it, but to also see if Amber can go mega too.

"I'm guessing you wanna see him?" Takato asked me "you up to it boy?" "Yeah, let's show him" Guilmon said "bio-merge digivolution!" said his Digivice "bio-merge activate!" Takato yelled as he and Guilmon combined into one "Guilmon bio-merge to…Galantmon!" both voices shouted in unison.

"So, this is Galantmon" Amber said amazed by his appearance "think we can do that?" I asked looking at my digital beauty "we won't know until we try" she relied "we always fight together, it'll be completely different if we do it as one" I admitted "I'm not too sure about that, it might not be as different as you think" Amber said to me "you know what, you're right, let's do it." I said with confidence

"Bio-merge digivolution" my Digivice said in its female computer voice "bio-merge activate!" I shouted as we became one "Renamon bio-merge to… Mysticmon" we shouted in unison as we transformed into a 6 foot human form wearing golden armor with a yin-yang symbol on our chest plate, a shining violet cloak and a golden fox mask.
