This story is based around the original Digimon Adventures world with the important change that Apocalymon was never born, but his data was rather continually recycled into Primary Village. Thus, the Dark Masters never appeared and other forces grew strong in their place. Thus, history changed dramatically and, as a result, the present.

Chapter 1

Part 1

The bell rang and signalled the end of school. Paula quickly gathered her books and left class at a fast pace. She needed to meet Thomas in the computer room and then she needed to get home to enjoy the Easter holiday. Easter. She had almost forgotten about that with all the lessons and stuff. But first she needed to meet Thomas. In the computer room. Now. As she passed the lockers a couple of girls called for her attention.

- "Hi Paula. Did you hear what that dork Timothy did?"

Paula walked straight past them. She didn't know what had happened and to be honest she didn't care. People were always on about Timothy anyways. It was probably something stupid like him being late again anyways. Everybody hated Timothy for some reason. He didn't fit in. He wasn't normal. Paula herself didn't care much. Timothy was polite and honest. To her it didn't matter what he looked like.

Paula smacked herself in the forehead. Now she did it again. She remembered what had happened last time she tried to stand up for somebody with bad status. That hadn't been nice. She looked up. There was the computer room. She walked in and went straight up to Thomas to see what it was that he wanted to see her about that was important enough to interrupt Easter.

- "Oh, hi Paula". Thomas said and looked up. "I just wanted to talk a bit to you before Easter since we probably won't see each other for a week."

- "Was it something special that you wanted to tell me?"

- "As a matter of fact, there is something I've wanted to tell you for a while."

- "Well what is it then."

- "I want to tell you that …"

At just that moment another person entered the scene.

- "Hello Paula, hello Thom…as."

- "Hi Sophie." But the girl was staring at Thomas with a look of horror in her face.

- "I swear." She almost whimpered. "It wasn't my intention. It was a mistake."

- "It wasn't your intention?" Thomas said with a sudden chill. "You monster of an o…"

- "That's enough, Thomas!" Paula furiously interrupted. "You'll not destroy my holiday with your teasing."

- "You don't understand." Thomas snapped. "This is between me and Sophie."

Paula punched Thomas. Hard. In the stomach.

- "Hey"! Sophie called out. "Mind the computer."

But Thomas inevitably fell towards the computer. But instead of breaking it, as soon as he touched the screen it shone up brightly. When the light faded, Thomas was nowhere to be seen.

- "Thomas!" both girls screamed in shock.

A small message appeared on the screen. Both girls moved in to read it.

It said "I'm terribly sorry for this."

Another bright flash, and when an angry teacher came by to see what the commotion was all about, there was no one to be seen.

Part 2

Mr John Abbot looked at the three and sighed.

- "Again." he said in a tired voice. "I swear; you alone have given me more troubles than all of the other kids together."

- "He insulted my brother." Matilda said.

- "Look, I just told him to move out of my way". Robin answered. "He was blocking the whole corridor and I was in kind of a hurry; which I still am, by the way."

- "You swore at him."

- "Well as I said I was in kind of a hurry."

- "That doesn't give you the right to swear at my brother."

- "Well excuse me, Sheriff."

- "That's enough!"

- "I agree." Mr Abbot interrupted. "That's enough. For both of you. Michael, could you please explain to me what really happened."

- "Certainly sir". Said the third kid, a tall, handsome boy. "I was talking to Charles when Robin tried to push me out of the way, said something about being in a hurry. When I didn't budge, Robin called me "dull womanizer" and told me to move out of the way. My sister was in the vicinity and, well I think you can figure out what happened after then."

- "How hurt is Robin?" Mr Abbot sighed, this had happened many times before.

- "Not at all actually." Robin answered. "You got there before Sheriff Matilda caused any injury."

Mr Abbot raised hand to quell any arguments before they rose and looked at the two perpetrators.

- "Well I can't think of anything that could make you stop with these things so I think I will call for someone more experienced. Could you please stay here while I go get the principal?"

And with those words Mr Abbot left the room and the three kids in it alone.

Robin went over to the teacher's computer.

- "Hey!" Matilda called out. "What do you think you're doing?"

- "I'm just going to check out if that Simpsons episode is going to air again anytime soon since I've missed it due to all this mess. It'll only take a second."

- "No you're not." Matilda replied and walked up behind Robin, trying to seize the kid. Michael followed her, ready to try and stop the two, should things spiral out of control.

However, during the fight Matilda accidentally touched the computers keyboard with her elbow. A bright flash, and when Mr Abbot returned with the principal, the kids appeared to have escaped from the room.

Part 3

"This wasn't so bad, after all." Timothy thought. He had a fairly interesting book about vampires and his flashlight gave him just enough light to read it despite the fact that he couldn't turn on the lighting from the inside. There was a something to sit on and plenty of water should he get thirsty. Timothy turned the page. "This wasn't so bad," he thought again. "This wasn't bad at all. Being locked up in a water closet was much better than he had expected."

Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon. Neither do I own any Digimon except for those that are created by me. They are owned by their owners. I do however own any and all characters I have created on my own and they may not be used by anyone else except those who want to (though it would be kind to ask first).

Part 1 and 2 describes how the kids end up in the Digital World as well as hinting at their personalities and relationships. Part 3 introduces a parallel side-story about Timothy (who is, by the way, not part of the DigiDestined team).
