Not sure how long I'll be able to keep up this update rate but want a good opening few chapters at least before longer update waits. As always no properties in this story belong to me and feel free to drop a review with questions you want answers or ideas on how I'm doing.
In Case of Crisis Reset Reality: Set the Date
She was starting to hate the color white. White walls, white bed, white clothes, and white curtains. The nurses wore white too but at least they had a little red on their clothes and color in their skin and eyes. She sits up in bed and looks out the window at the blue sky. She like blue it seemed more nice and free kind of color unlike white which is detached and cold. She wants to be out there right now but they say she needs to be seen as all ok first. She didn't mean what she did…
"You lie you lie you lie you lie!"
… it just happened. She lies back down admitting that over worrying about it won't be healthy and just to wait until she gets to go outside under the blue sky again.
At the park Henry and Suzie had finally arrived. Henry physically wasn't much different though his hair had gotten a little longer, he said it was just because he hasn't had time to get it cut, and he seemed a bit more thin due to a slight height increase as well. His dress sense had certainly changed though trading in his orange vest for a grey button up shirt with blue tie and blue formal vest instead. He completed this with some black slacks and nice black shoes.
Suzie on the other hand between seven and eleven shot up a bit being almost Henry's height now. She had also taken to wearing her hair in a simple ponytail over how it was before. Her clothing were actually similar to what she used to wear during the time everyone had their adventures with the Digimon but a somewhat more red color and the socks with yellow shoes being traded off for some sandals.
Still after the standard reactions to seeing Impmon again, that and Suzie taking a good five minutes to laugh at how Kazu looked, everyone was seated for the Rookie Digimon to continue.
"Alright listen good cause I only wanna say this once. The others right now are safe and in a place called Demeter city…" Before he could continue Kazu's head shot up.
"Uh.. yes?" Impmon was a bit confused at the interruption.
"Yeah what is a Demeter and how do you make a city out of it?" Everyone slouched slightly some giving a slight groan.
"I don't know but what is important is that everyone else is there waiting." At this Henry leaned forward slightly hands out in front of him and fingers clasped.
"Might I ask why they chose to wait there then?" At this Impmon sheepishly rubbed the back of his head.
"The long and short of it was that the city needed help and the others choose to stay there knowing I could find the portal and bring you guys back on my own." Once again he was met with confused looks.
"Look you'd find it is easier if I just show you." With that Impmon grits his teeth and his entire body starts to glow.
"IMPMON WARP DIGIVOLVE TO BEELZEMON!"
Sitting there now was a tall imposing demonic figure with a black leather jacket, clawed hands, spikes toed boots, a long black tail, and three green eyes. The digivolution had made the rest jump slightly back but they calmed down rather quick. Beelzemon flexed one of his hands.
"Yeah for some reason I can still hit mega on my own. Can't use the blast mode without my tamers it seems though. Still it was decided one powerful mega traveling alone could be more efficient than having to guard the rest in case something big came along during that time. That and the portal I used will kind of sort of disappear in a day so I couldn't really go get them." The gathered humans all nodded in agreement choosing to at the least accept this. That is until the last part hit them causing everyone's eyes to shoot open wide in shock. Though further questions were briefly paused by the sudden screeching sound as a black van came to a stop right next to their position and the door being kicked open to reveal none other than Yamaki.
"Ok explanation now." So once again Beelzemon went over what happened for Yamaki. When he finished the head of Hypnos leaned against the van arms crossed, and deep in thought. Eventually he pulled off his black sunglasses and looked at the group.
"I'm guessing none of you will wait long enough for Hypnos to find its own way in?" The Tamers quickly looked at eachother.
"Yes." Yamaki just sighed.
"I'm also going to assume even if we tried you are going to do this anyways?" Once again the Tamers looked around their group.
"Definitely."
"Without a doubt."
"Of course."
"Yep."
"Most likely."
"We're mostly teenagers you think we'd do anything less?"
With that it seemed the young group had come to a unanimous decision and Yamaki stood up straighter from his leaning position.
"Well if we can't stop you at least take this night to say goodbye to inform your families about this. Meet up here at 8:00 a.m. sharp we'll try to scrounge up some equipment for you to use." All the Tamers nodded and with that Yamaki got back in the van going to see what Hypnos had made beforehand in case this day came.
Once Yamaki was gone all the Tamers got up and looked at each other. Takato was the first to speak.
"Well I guess we should all head home and let our folks know then." He turned to look at Beelzemon.
"So you going to see your partners before we leave?" The mega level just shrugged.
"I might. As long as they haven't moved again I should be able to find them. See you all in the morning." With that he devolved to Impmon and bounded off in the directions of where is tamers lived. The others also took that time to say their goodbyes and they all split off to go to their perspective homes all united in a single idea. That tomorrow couldn't come any sooner.
Impmon leapt across the city keeping out of sight until he could find the place his Tamer's used to, and hopefully still, lived. By the time he arrived it was already late at night but that didn't bother him too much. Landing in a nearby tree he looked at the house seeing if the inhabitants were any different than before. So far things seemed the same so the rookie Digimon got closer looking to were his Tamer's old bedroom was. Looking in the window he was able to confirm it seeing the purple D-arc sitting on a nearby desk and the walls covered with drawings. Specifically drawings of Impmon and some of his mega form. He noticed the window was unlocked and slipped inside looking left and right to see signs of his partners themselves. He did spying a bed and in it a sleeping form. Though older now from the passage of four years Impmon could tell that form was Ai, Mako most likely having gotten his own sleeping quarters at this point, the Digimon considered waking his partners but decided against it. Taking one of the pictures off the wall he turned it over and finding a pen began to write, out of slight embarrassment over certain events last time he was in the human world Impmon took the time to find a way to learn how to read and write back in the Digital World, a short note. It said…
Ai and Mako. I know you probably want to see me in person but I still got some work to do before I can be back. So be good and I'll see you soon. – Impmon
Satisfied he set the note down and left out the window finding a place to sleep for the night.
