Okie, I made some changes to Chapter 3. (Don't worry!! I'll get chapter 4 up soon! I promise!!) So please, R&R


"…he's okay?"

"He looks fine."

"Hey…try and give him…"

Voices.

Annoying ones.

'Damnit…can't they shut up?' Kouji scrunched his face. The smell of cinnamon, sweat, and burnt leaves kept wafted into his nose…

Wait a minute…

BAM! Takuya went 5 feet into the air, and then crashed 10 feet away. Kouichi grinned.

"See? Kouji knows when Takuya is in his personal space. There's the reason why it's impossible for Kouji and Takuya to have an "Accidental" kiss when he's unconscious, because he'll just hit the person then jerk his head upwards," Kouichi smirked happily as he held out his hand. Junpei grumbled and gave 20 bucks to him. Kouichi looked expectantly at Izumi.

"Well?" She gave him the puppy face.

"Come on, you wouldn't do that to a girl, right? Pwease?" she pouted, giving all she can into that face. Kouichi wasn't fazed one bit.

"20 bucks. Now." This time, she pouted for real.

"Fine; here scalper," she growled as she handed him 20 bucks also. Kouichi pocked the money. "Thank you for doing business with Kou's betting corner. Come again real soon," he smirked. Izumi scoffed at him. "Heck no!" Takuya smirked at that.

"Izumi, Kouichi is possibly the most…" he trailed off.

"Hard-ass?" suggested Kouji, getting up with a small grunt.

"Poker-faced?" helped Izumi.

"Unfeeling?" supplied Junpei.

"…all of those plus 'coldest' guy you will meet. He cannot feel love like we do. He can only watch. He's a cold, unfeeling, heartless android." Kouichi snorted.

"I can too feel emotion, Takuya" retorted Kouichi with annoyance. Takuya raised an eyebrow.

"Then why aren't you dating girls? Flirting even?" questioned the fire leader. Kouichi turned his head to the side.

"I just haven't found a girl worth my while," he said stiffly, hiding the light tint of pink of his face from Takuya and the others. Takuya leered at him.

"Really? 'cause I think-"

The barrage stopped suddenly when Takuya was tackled by a blur of what looked like to be a pink ball.

Falling on to the floor, he was greeted by an over hyper pink blob.

'Well that was unexpected,' thought the others, sweatdropping as they watched their leader get mauled by a pink ball.

"Hiya Hiya! My name is Koromon!! Hiya Hiya!" said the now-known digimon, bouncing up and down on Takuya's stomach during the greeting.

"Nice-Oof!-To…meet…ya," he replied weakly. "Now…why…are…you…on my…stomach?"

"I'm your digimon!"

"What?" Takuya quickly sat up, Koromon rolling off of his stomach. He quickly caught the little bugger and brought him up eye to eye.

"You're my what?" he repeated. Koromon smiled.

"Your digimon silly? Can't you remember?"

"Remember what?" takuya questioned, confused.

"Me! Remember Tai, Remember?" said the digimon, bouncing in his hands.

"…Who? What? Huh?" poor Takuya was confused out of his skull. Koromon stopped bouncing.

"Tai…it's me, Koromon! Remember?" Takuya shook his head.

"Listen, I'm not 'Tie" or "Tai" or whoever. My name is 'Takuya.' T-A-K-U-Y-A. Takuya," explained Takuya.

"Tai."

"Takuya."

"Tai."

"Takuya."

"Tai."

"Takuya."

"Tai."

"Takuya"

"Takuya"

"It's Tai-ARGH NO IT's-It's ARGH!!" screamed Takuya grabbing at his head.

The rest watched with interest as the digimon and human continued to battle verbally over Takuya's name.

"It's amazing," stated Kouji. "Only Takuya can lose to a battle of wits…about his own name," he finished flatly. Both Izumi and J.P shook their heads sadly in agreement.

"Yeah," they sighed.

"Koromon! Stop confusing Takuya!" a voice came around the bend when…

"BOKOMON!" cried Izumi.

"NEEMON!" shouted Kouji.

"AND FURRY little…blobs?" questioned Junpei when he saw the in-training digimon crowded around the two rookies. Which then the little blobs jumped into the digidestined arms.

"Hi, I'm Kokomon," said a brown and pink digimon with three horns on its head to Tommy.

"I'm Tusnomon, nice to meet ya," greeted a yellow and cream in-training digimon with a horn to Kouji.

"Hi," greeted back a speechless Kouji.

"My name is Yokomon," explained a pinkish digimon with an antenna and flower on top and tentacles instead of legs to Izumi.

"Greetings big one, I am Motimon," surmised a…well, a bald, pink, ghost-like creature to Junpei.

"Hiya Kouichi," Tokomon said, smiling up at the dark twin. Kouichi looked at the figure in his arms and smiled thinly.

"Well, at least I can recognized each you; not sure about the others though," he remarked, glancing over at the rest. They all had the same face on: WTF? Tokomon giggled.

"Bokomon and Neemon will explain; it's kinda hard." Kouichi nodded.

"I can tell, but tell me this: Why did you jump into our arms?"

"Simple Kouichi," stated Bokomon, speaking for the first time during this. "They're your digimon,"

"What?" shouted them. Bokomon nodded his head.

"It all started when some Gotsumon was mining in the abandoned pillars (1) and they came across a metal device. They mined deeper and found more metal devices…


Flashback Sequence

"Hey, Grotto! Look at this!" called a Gotsumon to his friend. The Gotsumon came over, scratching his head.

"What is it?"

"Looks like rock," commented another.

"Or a petrified egg."

"Look it's hatching!" Indeed, a crack was forming on the egg-shaped rock.

"WHOAH!"

"Rocker!" The Gotsumon holding the egg stumbled back when a burst of light came from the hatched egg-rock, dropping the egg in the process.

"Look something coming out from it!"

"What are they?"

"I dunno rock head."

"Hey don't call me rock head you furry giga!(1)"

End Sequence


"So what did the Gotsumon saw?" questioned Izumi.

"We don't know," Neemon replied, causing everyone to fall down anime style.

"What do you mean you don't know?! Didn't the Gotsumon tell you?" inquired Kouji.

"No, because right after, black tentacles came from the very same egg and destroyed the Gotsumon! Only few to came back, but they were in a state of insanity, shouting about the black tentacles," concluded Bokomon.

"That's horrible!" cried J.P

"Bokomon, don't we hafta get them to Ophanimon?" asked Neemon. Bokomon jumped.

"He's right, Ophanimon wants you to come immediately (I don't know how we got sidetracked)-Why are you staring?" The group was wide-eyed at the two digimon.

"Neemon…was right," said Kouji, albeit lamely. Bokomon rolled his eyes.

"He's gotten smarter now come on!" he cried, marching the way.

"Neemon is right for once…we have digimon…black tentacles…what is the world coming to?" complained J.P

"Japanese Stereotypes?" remarked Kouji dryly. The gang chuckled a bit.

"But wait a minute…" replied Kouichi, stopping and looking around.

"Where's Salamon?"


The person was in a forest.

"Nghh…" moaned the person as they awoke. They blinked at rubbed a hand over their eyes.

"Hello," a cat-like creature said in front of them. They blinked at it.

"Who are you? Where am I?" they asked with confusion.

"My name is Gatomon and I'm your digimon and you're in the digital world. What's your name?" The person blinked then frowned, concentrating.

"I…I don't know…I can't remember anything…except…I have to find my friend," explained they.

"Well, you're friend must be around here, so we'll find your friend, okay Michi (2)?" Michi nodded their head, eyes gazing off into space.

"Yes," Michi said, getting up and started to walk, wherever, just walking to somewhere.

Gatomon followed beside.


In the mist of the darkness, an egg twisted and writhed around. Two long, thin, black, oily tentacles reached out from the egg, grasping some fragments. The fragments transformed into shadowy figures.

'Fffffffind themmmm…' it hissed. The figures bowed to the egg.

"Yes, master," they intoned, then disappeared.

All around, you could hear the evil cackling of the egg.


1. Giga is an insult. I made up words! :D

2. Michi means path in japanese. (Lawl...)

Review! And I'm working on the next chapter!!
