The Kingdom Aether is fan-world and will have some references from Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
There will be a father to daughter talk, just like father to son talk. In memory of Chadwick Boseman (1976-2020).
"Wakanda forever!"
CHAPTER 12
An Ancient Kingdom
Comet Observatory
The group, with Lan, Maylu, with their respective Net Navis, Lea, Pichu Brothers and Cloud added as new members in the team, arrived at the Comet Observatory. In the map appeared a new and unknown world for everyone. The world has a castle in ruins and a lot of open spaces on it.
"This world in new." Prime said.
"Me never watched that world before." Keenan said.
"This world is my home!" Caleb said recognizing it.
"Our world…" Aria gasps putting her right hand in the chest.
"One thousand years and our home changed a lot." Luke said in disbelief.
"Are you sure to go there?" Prime asked to Caleb.
"Yes, it's my home." Caleb nods.
"There are chances of 75% to find two Digi-Spirits in that world and chances of 50% to find an item with sacred powers." Fi informed.
"The purple card." Lopmon said.
"That must be." Suzy said.

Aether Kingdom: Coastal Village
The team arrived into place where is an abandoned village in the jungle close the beach and crystalline water.
"Alright!" Oshawott said watching the beach.
"The sea! The sea! The sea!" Sakura said fascinated.
"Everybody in the water!" Gomamon said.
"Where are we?" Tyson asks.
"This place is new." ROB said.
"We arrived at the village where my brother and I were born." Caleb said.
"Did you live close the beach?" Sakura asked and Caleb nods.
"That places brings me memories from Okinawa." Takato said.
"It reminds me when Minnie and I go to Hawaii." Mickey said.
"This time there aren't the Toucanmon." JP said.
"Toucanmon?" Verity asked.
"They are four Digimon who tricked us in the Digital World." Takuya explained.
"Unless the meal made by the Toucanmon was so good." Neemon commented.
"Do you know more about this place?" Christopher asked to Caleb.
"In this village have the best food, tropical fruits, seagull eggs and seafood. My family enjoyed living here, my brother and I always played in the water, splash fights, swim races and dives on the reef daily after the school." Caleb explained.
"Your home was definitely a paradise." Medli said.
"Maybe the bananas from this place have the best taste than any other world." DK said.
"I want to play in the water!" Pichu #1 said excited.
"Don't start without me!" Pichu #2 said excited too.
"Hey Kari, do want to build a giant sandcastle with me?" TK asked.
"Yes." Kari nodded.
"I have a better idea." Tommy said.
"What is?" Cody asked.
"A sand town." Tommy said and turns to Suzy. "Do you want join us?"
"I would like it." Suzy said with empathy.
"Luckily I brought my bathing suit this time." Mimi said.
"Look, something is popping out from the sand." JP said pointing to the sand.
"What is?" Sorrel asked.
Then from the sand, leatherback and green sea turtle hatchlings came out.
"Just in time." Luke smirks.
"Leatherback and green sea turtle hatchlings." Cody said.
"Just like in our world." Kari said.
"They're so adorable." Verity said.
"The sea turtles always return to the beach where they hatched to lay their eggs." Izzy explains.
"I remember when I had 8 years old and my little brother watched them by the first time." Luke said.
"Yes, I remember that day." Caleb said and flashbacks.
Flashback before to sleep 1,000 years
A Caleb of 6 years old was watching the sea turtles hatchlings in company of Luke who has 8 years old.
"What are those animals?" The young Caleb asks.
"They're sea turtles and they always return to the beach where they hatched and lay their eggs." The young Luke explains.
"I never watched a lot of them." The young Caleb said and notices a little hatchling sea green turtle trying to climb the sand, but it falls.
Then he comes to the sand nest, he grabs the green sea turtle hatchling and puts it in the sand. The sea green turtle hatchling goes to the sea, but it returns to the young human like the sea turtle was saying 'Thanks'.
"Your welcome." The young Caleb said.
The sea green turtle continues its way to the sea.
"Where will the sea turtles go?" The young Caleb said.
"They go to explore the world and survive until arrive to the beach where they hatched." The young Luke said ruffling Caleb's hair. "Let's return with our parents."
"'Kay, just give some seconds, please." The young Caleb said and his brother nods and returns to his home.
*AN INNOCENT WARRIOR (MOANA)*
The little kid walks in the sand until arrive to the water, he continues until he stops and watches the horizon.
'I'm always dream in explore new places.' The young Caleb thought but he stream a little tear. 'Even if means say goodbye to my parents.'
As he was thinking, unknown for him the same sea green turtle hatchling returns where Caleb was standing, and he notices it.
"It's you again?" The young Caleb asks grabbing the turtle hatchling in his hand. "Why did you return here?"
The little green sea turtle moves his mouth like it was talking with Caleb.
"Do you want to stay with me?" The young Caleb asks.
The little sea turtle nods in answer.
"No, you can't, you have your own life as me." The young Caleb said petting the turtle's head with one finger.
But the little sea turtle hugs one of Caleb's fingers.
"I'm going to miss you too." The young Caleb said and puts the sea turtle hatchling in the water. "Goodbye!"
The green sea turtle hatchling continues its path by the sea young Caleb continues staring the horizon and sighs with some tears in the eyes.
"Caleb!" A female voice called.
"I come mom!" The young Caleb announces her.
He wipes his tears and returns to his home.
*ENDS*
The little kid turns to the horizon.
"Someday I'll explore the world." The young Caleb said.
The flashback ends.
Coastal Village
"Are you okay Caleb?" Veemon (dark blue) asked.
"I just only had a flashback." Caleb replied.
"About what?" Mew asked.
"When I was young, I'm always dreamed in explore the world." Caleb said.
"Just like me when I met Kairi by first time." Sora said.
"Let's go to see our parents." Luke said putting his hand on Caleb's shoulder and he nods.
The group arrives to the destroyed village, they continued until arrive at a graveyard.
"What happened there?" May asks.
"Here lies the ones who fought against Myotismon." Luke replied.
They continued until they arrived to see a tomb saying, 'Here lies Adan and Eva'.
"This my parents' grave." Caleb said a bit depressed.
"What happened to them?" Sakura asked.
"Myotismon killed them. They sacrificed their lives to protect me." Caleb replied.
"Gomen Nasai." Sakura said sadly.
"I know, I'm still missing them." Caleb said.
"Don't worry, your parents are in a better place and they won't be happy watching you sad." Prime said.
"Thank you Prime." Caleb said feeling a bit better.
Suddenly they heard a stomach growling.
"Boss, I'm hungry." Marcus' Agumon said.
"Always hungry Agumon…" Marcus groaned.
"Takato, I can't hold the hungry." Guilmon groans.
"Davis, I gotta eat something now!" Veemon (blue) said.
"Us too." Tentomon adds as the others Digimon nod in agreement.
"What do you mean?" Yoshino asked.
"Our Digimon needed food so they can Digivolve." Matt explained.
"Maybe the appetite from Tai's Agumon is just like from Marcus' Agumon." Gaomon said,
"Okay, we're going to prepare the dinner." Yoshino said.
"Since when you can cook?" Marcus asked.
"Since the day when Biyomon arrived at Marcus' house with a lot of Digimon in-training form." Lalamon replied.
"Me remember that day." Keenan said.
"And what are we going to do now?" Kenta asked.
"Maybe we must take a little rest after much battles against the enemies." Zoe replied.
"I'm agreed with Zoe." Takuya said.
"Probably a rest won't be bad after all." Rika said.
"Alright, we should rest here." Prime said.
Part of the members were searching food; Caleb was climbing a stone wall until he found nests with seagull eggs.
"Ah-ha! Seagull eggs. I'll collect some of them." Caleb said and took some seagull eggs.
In the sand, Mew uses Psychic to grab crabs and seashell snails.
"Got it!" Mew said.
In another zone Link swings his sword against the tall grass making appear rice and Zelda was watching.
"With that will be enough." Link said.
"I think so." Zelda said.
Inside the jungle, Samus shoots at some colorful pigeons which turned in raw bird thighs and brown boars too which turned in raw meat (like in LOZ: Breath of the Wild).
"This could be enough for the group." Samus said and the baby Metroid screeches softly.
Close the sea Mickey was fishing and got red and blue porgy fishes.
"I got enough." Mickey said.
DK, Sorrel, Lucario collected tropical fruits from different tress, bananas, coconuts, durians, mangoes, pineapples and star fruits.
"We got enough fruit." Sorrel said and Lucario nods in agreement.
"I love the bananas!" DK said.
In another part close the sea, Medli was playing 'Earth God's Lyric' with her harp. Cloud and Sora were having a sword training, but Sora was still having difficulties since he lost his powers in the Mark of Mastery.
"Do you still tired?" Oshawott asks concerned.
"Nah… I'm just getting started." Sora said.
"What happened to you Sora?" Cloud asked.
"I was ambushed by Xehanort and I lost my powers in the Mark of Mastery." Sora explained.
"An ambush, I see." Cloud said.
"By the way, when did you see Sephiroth the last time?" Sora asked.
"It was when you and Riku were fighting against Xemnas. He appeared when we were fighting against Callix, one of the Meta Demons, Sephiroth appeared and helped us to defeat Callix. When Neollix was close to beat us, Prime used a technique which restored all our energies with colorful aura appearing too and allow us to use our strongest attacks to damage the metallic hedgehog and the group of Digimon finished Neollix completely. Sephiroth tried to help Prime, but Prime decided to fight alone and avenge his friends, then Sephiroth disappeared from the world." Cloud explained.
"I used my Z-Move water type too!" Oshawott said.
"Whoa! I really wished stay there to watch you." Sora said to his sea otter Pokémon.
"The battle was so intense but Prime finally defeated that Phantom Metallix and saved everyone." Oshawott said.
"What are you planning to do?" Cloud asked to Sora.
"Since Xehanort was responsible from my lose of powers, I'm trying to recover them all, including the Power of Waking. I'm going to need it in the Keyblade War, defeat Master Xehanort and become into a true Keyblade Master. And someday will have another battle in the Pokémon Coliseum." Sora said.
"I'll be waiting you for the battle." Cloud said.
In the sand, Toby was pursuing a crab, but it was fleeing.
"Those crabs are very fast…" Toby said panting with the tongue out of his mouth.
By other part, Buck was enjoying the water and quacks relaxed. Prime and Shadow were securing the place and Sonic was trying to be brave against the water.
'It's really hard than I thought, the last time in Emerald Coast I could swim very well thanks to the bracelet made by Amy.' Sonic thought and he turns to Prime. "Hey Prime? How you overcame your fear against the water?"
"I overcome my fear against the water long time ago." Prime replied.
"Some weeks after we kicked Xemnas and Meta Demons' butts, I tried to jump to the water, but Knuckles made a joke pushing me to the water, luckily the water wasn't very deep." Sonic said.
Prime chuckles a bit. "Knuckles played you a little joke."
"Only I could overcome my fear against the water when Donald casted magic which replaced by legs by a tailfin." Sonic said.
"Sometimes the magic from other people won't solve your problems." Shadow said.
"I have to admit too, that you're not arrogant like the Shadow from my universe." Sonic said.
The young Sonic stares at the water again.
'I'll try it again…' Sonic thought and gets ready to dive. "One, two… t… ah… ah achoo!"
Sonic suddenly sneezes losing his balance and felled to the water. Fortunately, it wasn't very deep.
"Not again…" Sonic groans getting up.
In the sea, Toon Link and Young Link were competing in a swimming race.
'I will show him that I'm best than the cat-eyed jerk!' Young Link thought.
'I won't lose against that noisy kid!' Toon Link thought.
In the jungle Luke spoke with a traveler and bought wheat, bottle with fresh milk, cane sugar, pumpkins, goat butter and bottles with red spice. Luke was walking as he's carrying the ingredients in both arms with Dracomon and Sakura at their sides.
"Why did you buy those things?" Dracomon asked with curiosity.
"I bought it because we need ingredients for make the meal." Luke explained.
"Like what?" Dracomon asked.
"Cakes, pies, tarts, crepes, pudding and with the red spice we will make curry too." Luke explained.
"My specialty is the cake." Sakura said.
"Since when do you know how to make cake?" Luke asked.
"My dad taught me before I had a cooking class." Sakura said remembering when she made a chocolate cake (flashback from Sakura Card Captor in the episode 29).
"Your dad? Whoa! About my dad he was a person honest, responsible, generous, kind and brave. The last word that me dad told me were: 'Don't be afraid, be brave, survive and protect your little brother'; and I'll keep my word." Luke explained.
"Your dad really was a good person and he will proud of you." Sakura said.
"I'm thinking the same." Dracomon said.
"Thank you Sakura and you too Dracomon." Luke said.
In another zone, Mario was carrying mushrooms.
"Those mushrooms seems eatable." Mario said.
Aria was bringing some herbs.
"What are you carrying Aria?" Lunamon asked.
"I'm bringing some herbs for prepare the meal." Aria said.
When Lunamon bumps accidentally with Christopher who turns to her, and in answer she scares and hid behind of Aria.
"Sorry for that." Aria said.
"It's okay." Christopher said.
"Normally Lunamon doesn't scare like that." Aria said.
"I'm sorry for that, in the Digital World that I meet I defeated Mercurymon and I took the Code Crown from the Disc Zone, but some Digimon were scared from me, including a Lunamon like your Digimon partner." Christopher explained.
"And why did you do that?" Aria asked.
In answer Christopher sighs. "I was collecting the Code Crowns to remake a Digital World where the strong survive and all the weak ones fall by the way side." Christopher said.
"That was harsh." Aria said.
"But when I met Dracomon, I recognized him as a strong Digimon despite the size, then Mikey and I joined forces to defeat the Bagra Army." Christopher continues explaining.
"That sounds well." Aria said with a smile.
Luigi was carrying radishes and carrots, and Yoshi was bringing firewood in his saddle.
"Yoshi is hungry." Yoshi said rubbing his stomach.
"Be patient kid. Soon we will eat." Luigi said.
"And what about the Kari and the others?" Yoshi asked.
Luigi stares the children ready to have fun in the beach. "Oh great, not again! Again, I'm doing the hard work as they're having fun! I'm tired of babysitting children!"
He infuriated kicked a stick, but it was launched against a beehive. Bad mistake, soon the furious bees came out as Luigi shivers in fear and screams fleeing from the bees.
"Why me!?" Luigi yells in disbelief as he continues fleeing.
Yoshi was giggling. "That happens when Luigi disturb at the bees."
By other part, Marcus' Agumon was holding the hunger.
"Boss, I'm hungry!" Marcus' Agumon whined with twirled eyes.
"Agumon, please be patient…" Marcus told him.
"I can't! Gimme something to eat! My stomach's caving in…" Marcus' Agumon groans in hunger and began opening his mouth and went towards Marcus.
"Get away from me!" Marcus exclaimed and punches Agumon in the head.
Some of the team members heard Marcus.
"Was you trying to eat me again!?" Marcus scolded his Agumon.
"Sorry boss! I couldn't resist…" Marcus' Agumon said rubbing his head.
Meanwhile, the children are wearing bathing suits were enjoying the beach (the eleven Digidestined were wearing the bathing suits used in 'Last Day of the Summer Vacations') as all the Pokémon and Digimon were having fun too, only Leomon and Renamon were securing the place. TK, Kari, Cody, Suzy (wearing purple one-piece bathing suit) and Tommy (wearing light blue swimming trunks) were building village made of sand.
Ash (wearing blue swimming trunks original from Pokémon Kalos Saga), Sor, May (wearing a dark blue bikini matching her eyes), Matt, Verity (wearing bathing suit original from the movie 'Pokémon: I Choose You') with Piplup, Takato (wearing dark blue swimming trunks), Jeri (wearing light green two piece bathing suit) were exploring a reef and watching the colorful fishes. Tyson (wearing teal swimming trunks) was riding a Pokémon like string ray above the water.
Lan (wearing red swimming trunks), Mikey (wearing red and blue swimming trunks),Tai, Izzy, Joe, Henry (wearing dark green swimming trunks), Rika (wearing blue two-piece bathing suit), Keenan (wearing orange swimming trunks), Takuya (wearing red swimming trunks), Koji (wearing dark blue swimming trunks), Koichi (wearing black swimming trunks) and Impmon were having a swimming race.
Davis, Yolei, Mimi, Kazu (wearing black swimming trunks), Kenta (wearing gray swimming trunks), JP (wearing yellow and pink stripped one-piece bathing suit), Ewan (wearing yellow swimming trunks) and Nene (wearing lavender one-piece bathing suit) were having a splash fight. Caleb was watching them from afar as he collected salt rocks.
"Maybe the best thing of the summer is the beach." Caleb said to himself.
"Caleb, do you remember when we had our first date in the beach." Aria said at Caleb's left side.
"Yes, I had 11 years old." Caleb said and flashbacks.
Flashback before to sleep 1,000 years
An 11 years old Caleb, wearing light blue loincloth. He was sleeping in the sand with his hands behind the head.
'That last task was difficult than the last one…' Caleb thought.
He continues sleeping until an 11 years old Aria wearing a light blue two-piece bikini appears in front of his eyes.
"Whoa!" Caleb jump in surprise and Aria laughs. "Gimme a break, Aria."
"Sorry." Aria giggled and says. "How do I look?"
Caleb stares at her and starts to blush. "Pretty as always."
"Thanks." Aria said blushing.
"C'mon Aria." Caleb said pulling Aria's hand.
Aria giggles again as they were coming to the water. They had a splash fight, swam and dived to the reef. Some seconds they stared to each other and laughed. Back in the sand, Aria was wearing her regular dress and they were watching the sunset
"I never had fun in months." Caleb said.
"Me neither." Aria said.
"Aria, I want to tell you something." Caleb said starting to sweat nervously.
"What is?" Aria asked.
"I… I…" Caleb gulps nervously but he encourages himself. "I love you."
"Huh!? Did you love me?" Aria asks surprised.
"Yeah, I wanted to tell you before, but I never had enough guts to tell you." Caleb said.
In answer, Aria tackles Caleb for a hug and cries with joy.
"Oh, Caleb… I love you too." Aria said with joy.
"You do?" Caleb asks.
"Yes! Since I met you by the first time, you're brave, kind, gentle and sincere." Aria said as Caleb can't help but blush. Then she looks down in sadness. "When I was separated from my dad, I was alone, depressed and scared. But when you arrived, you really helped me a lot, and I'm grateful for that."
"Aria… Since the day when I met you and we travelled together, all this time you are a sister for me, kind and pretty since the first day when I met you." Caleb said.
"Oh, Caleb… Thank you." Aria said.
Both stand up and share a deep and loving embrace in the light of sunset. Unknown for them, Mew who was invisible and Veemon (dark blue) hid in a bush, they were watching them.
"Do it Caleb." Mew said.
"This is your chance." Veemon (dark blue) said.
Back with the pair, Caleb without thinking leans forward and placed a kiss on Aria's lips, he stepped back as his face blushes completely. Then she returns the kiss on his lips wrapping her arms around Caleb.
"Way to go, Caleb!" Mew and Veemon cheered him from afar.
"Hey!" Another voice said revealing as a bigger version of Banjo, but the fur color is black and has a brown bag, a red bandicoot like Crash, but he has brown leather pants and a bigger version of Spyro, but he has dark green scales, another version of Mario who has medieval clothing, a female version of Kirby and other versions of Kari, TK, Matt and Tai dressed like loyalty in company from their respective Digimon.
"We're back!" A bird like Kazooie popped out from the bag, but she seems an eagle.
In answer, Caleb and Aria separate from their kiss and blush yelping in surprise.
"Poyo." The girl Kirby replied in a female cute voice.
"What are you doing with Aria?" The green scaled version of Spyro asks teasingly as the red Crash was giggling.
"Maybe Caleb is in love with Aria all this time." Gabumon said.
"Guys, don't start to tease them." Gatomon said.
"So, you finally got finally a girlfriend." The black furred version of Banjo said to Caleb.
Caleb yelps in surprise and asked. "How much of that did you see!?"
"Only the ending." The person like Mario said.
"We saw the kiss." Taichi said.
Aria and Caleb blushed in embarrassment. But Hikari and Takeru were confused.
"I can't understand what we were doing." Hikari said.
"Me neither." Takeru said.
"I'll tell you when you grow up." Taichi told to Hikari.
"The same goes for you Takeru." Yamato said to Takeru.
"By the way, congratulations Caleb." Banjo said putting his paw in Caleb's shoulder as Crash and Spyro joined too.
"I'm surrounded by animals…" Caleb whispers.
"Let's return to the castle." Patamon said above the head of Takeru.
"Taichi, do you have something to eat?" Agumon asked.
"Not again Agumon." Taichi said groaning.
In answer they laugh and the flashback ends.
Coastal Village
Back in the present. Caleb was watching the little children who ended the sand village, now they were having a splash fight.
"Hey! Bro, Aria!" Luke calls them.
"We're coming." Caleb said and they make their way.
The people who gathered the ingredients prepared some tables too and they were staring at a black cooking pot. Luigi who finally escaped from the bees brought a beehive from the bees.
"So, how it works?" Sakura asked.
"First we must set fire in the wood." Caleb said and casts Firaga which makes appear fire bellow the cooking pot. "Now we must put some ingredients in the cooking pot."
The teenager grabs a blue porgy fish, a seashell snail, rice, goat butter and a salt rock. He puts them in the cooking pot and the ingredients started to move until in poof appear a seafood paella (like in LOZ: Breath of the Wild when you prepares a recipe).
"Ta-da!" Caleb showed the dish.
"Why did you put a salt rock?" Mario asked.
"The salt rock, represents culinary properties." Caleb replied.
Then they prepared a lot of dishes like fruitcake, clam chowder, pumpkin stew, meat stew, prime poultry curry, carrot cake, wildberry crepes, plain crepes, apple pie, fried bananas, fruit pie, mushroom risotto, veggie cream soup, carrot stew, mushroom omelet, crab omelet with rice, prime poultry pilaf, porgy meuniere, seafood fried rice, meat and rice bowl, seafood rice balls, mushroom rice balls, curry rice, honeyed fruits, salt-grilled meat, salt-grilled crab, salt-grilled fish, wheat bread, salt-grilled greens, salt-grilled mushrooms, copious simmered fruit, prime meat and seafood fry, boiled eggs, mushroom, meat and fish skewers.
Caleb approaches to Prime. "The meal is ready."
"Thanks." Prime nods.
"I'm going to tell it at the others." Caleb said.
TK, Kari, Suzy, Cody and Tommy were still having the splash fight until one splash has soaked Caleb.
"Caleb!?" The five young children jumped in surprise.
Caleb tries to hold his laugh, but he failed, and the others laugh in answer. After gather everyone, the children changed at their regular clothes and they are going for the meal.
"Oh yeah. I haven't had a meal like this. My stomach was chiming." Tai said.
"If we have some ketchup to go with this, it would be perfect." Matt said.
"I love ketchup and eggs." TK said.
"That sounds pretty gross to me." Sor commented.
"Yoshi didn't realize how hungry Yoshi was!" Yoshi said with mouth full.
"Kid, don't speak with your mouth full." Luigi told to Yoshi.
"Oops, Yoshi sorry." Yoshi said.
"Me like this food." Keenan said.
"What about you ROB?" JP asked.
"I'm a robot." ROB replied.
Marcus and his Agumon were eating so fast, like Toon Link and Young Link but they were continuing their rivalry.
Then Marcus with his Agumon, Toon and Young Link finish eating their meal, however they said. "More, please!"
Some members sweat-dropped in answer.
"I never have seen Link very active." Medli whispers referring at Toon Link who is having rivalry with Young Link.
"The Agumon from Marcus has an appetite like the Agumon from Tai." Dracomon added.
"Comparing them with Yoshi and Kirby, they have a lot of appetite." Sora said.
"This looks good." Sonic said eating an apple.
"Delicious!" Kari said enjoying the food.
"You said it!" Tai said.
"Well, everything looks great." Rika said.
"Thank you." Renamon said.
"This looks really yummy!" Shoutmon said.
"If you eat them. There very healthy." Takuya said.
"Yummy!" Guilmon said eating bread.
"Is very delicious." Takato said.
"It's really good!" Jeri said.
"A taste of goodness and sweetness!" Mimi said.
"You said it, Mimi!" Palmon said.
"Eggs with vegetables inside are so delicious!" TK said.
"Mmm! Steaks makes my mouth water!" Matt said.
"Eat well and sleep well. That's what keeps me healthy!" Ash said.
"You can say that again." Gabumon said.
"The fish tastes good." Lan said.
"The curry rice is so good too." Luke said.
"Molto bono! Yum!" Zoe said.
"What it does mean?" Medli asked.
"It's Italian for delicious." Zoe explained.
"The bananas are healthy and delicious." Donkey Kong said.
"This looks really delicious." Mikey said.
Mickey burps accidentally before to blush and say. "Excuse me."
"How does the Metroid eat?" Cody asked.
"Watch this." Samus said putting a raw fish in the ground.
The baby Metroid chirped and bites the fish, he starts to drain until leave a lifeless husk that crumbles into dust.
"That was too weird." Armadillomon said and Cody nods in agreement.
Two Pikachu (from Ash and Tyson), Piplup, Oshawott, Skitty, Pichu Brothers, Mew and Calumon are feeding the honeyed fruit.
"That's what I called, a taste of heaven." Biyomon said.
"Like a hint of angels." Sor said.
"This looks really good Lunamon!" Aria said.
"Me too!" Lunamon said.
"What do you think Onii-chan?" Sakura asked to Prime.
"It's very delicious." Prime said.
"That was very delicious, right Guilmon?" Takato asked.
"Yep, so delicious and yummy." Guilmon said.
"The food is so good." Toby said as Buck quacks in agreement.
"Fortunately, I saved room for dessert." Caleb said.
As they followed with the dessert. The same traveler who sold his products, he was making his way through the jungle until he was caught by rope and dragged up with his backpack falling, he heard a creature growling and the man trapped screamed in agony and some drops of blood felled in the backpack. Back with the group who ended the dessert, they are ready to depart.
"We must keep going." Shadow said.
"To where?" Oshawott asked.
"To the castle of Aether Kingdom." Caleb replied.
They nodded and make their way to the jungle.
Jungle
They were walking watching at their surroundings.
"Back in the jungle." Caleb said.
"Just like the old times." Mew said.
They continued until a skinned human body appeared in their sight.
"HOE!" Sakura screams.
"WAH!" Toon Link jumps scared.
"GYAAH!" Luigi screams with his hands on the face (like 'Home Alone' face scream).
Some members yelped in surprise, others like TK, Kari and Suzy clung to their respective brothers, only Tommy clung to Takuya and Cody clung to Yolei. But Joe nearly vomits after to see the corpse.
"Don't scream like that Sakura." May said.
"I'm sorry." Sakura apologized in English.
"The same goes for you Luigi." Mario said.
"Oh…" Luigi sighs before to fall fainted.
"What is that thing?" Suzy asks clinging to Henry in fear.
"It seems a human body…" Kenta said nervously.
"But this body doesn't have skin…" Kazu said nervously too.
"It reminds me when I saw the muscular system in science class." Izzy said.
"It's creepy watch a skinned body like that…" Tommy said with the blue face of fear.
"It's like to see a horror movie…" TK said clinging tightly in Matt.
"I'm thinking the same…" Cody said scared.
"Tai, I'm scared…" Kari said shivering in fear.
"Don't worry Kari, I'm here." Tai said petting Kari's head to comfort her.
"I'll check it." Prime said.
He approaches to the corpse and starts to check it. Then he turns to everyone.
"This corpse was a victim of someone who appear to be like collecting souls. The corpse is Soulless in passive form before to complete its transformation, or should I say the Pre-soulless transformation." Prime explained.
"Hey, I found this." Sorrel said finding the backpack from the same traveler.
"It's a backpack?" Verity asked.
"That backpack was from the same traveler who sold me the ingredients for the meal." Luke gasps in shock recognizing it.
"Are you saying that this traveler is the same before to be skinned?" Joe asks nervously and Luke nods.
"I know who is the culprit… The Predator." Caleb said.
"The corpse is still there, it's not the Predator. If this corpse is the Predator, the corpse will be disappeared." Prime explains.
"What are we going to do?" Nene asked.
"I need to destroy this corpse before it can transform." Prime said.
"Destroy it? That will scare Suzy!" Henry said concerned.
Prime sighs and approaches to Suzy. "Listen Suzy, I need you to close your eyes and cover your ears."
"But why?" Suzy asks.
"Do it, trust me." Prime said.
Then Suzy nods in answer.
"Maybe some of us must do the same." Thomas suggests and the children in the group nodded.
As they heard the words, the children in the group closed their eyes and covered their ears tightly.
"Get ready Shadow." Prime said.
"Understood." Shadow said.
'No matter what, I will find you and you will pay for this.' Prime thought.
Then Prime realizes Sonic Cracker and Shadow realize Chaos Bomb with both attacks destroying the corpse completely.
"Is it gone?" Pichu #1 asks.
"Yes, it's everything fine." Prime replied.
The children open their eyes as Luigi starts to wake up.
"What did I miss?" Luigi asked.
"Prime stopped a pre-soulless before it can transform completely." Sora replied.
"I can't wait more time; I'm going to search the castle of this world." Sonic said and dashes off.
"Sonic, do you know where it is?" Kari calls Sonic.
In answer, Sonic drifted and returned to the group.
"No idea." Sonic said sheepishly.
Everyone sweat-dropped, but Shadow facepalms.
"I know where is the castle, follow me guys." Caleb said and they nodded.
The group was making their way towards the castle of Aether Kingdom.
"Are we there yet?" Impmon asked.
"Not yet." Aria replied.
"Just keep going Impmon." Renamon said.
The group was continuing until Prime was feeling an evil presence.
"Guys, look out!" He exclaimed.
Suddenly a red laser appears and Prime dodged the attack.
"What was that!?" Koichi asked.
"We're not alone!" Shadow said.
Then the same red laser appears and barely hits both Pichu.
"Yikes!" They jumped in fright.
"Where it is!?" Gatomon asked.
"Face yourself coward!" Marcus shouted.
Another red laser appears going towards the group.
"Defense Shield!" Prime realizes his move returning the attack to someone who was invisible and fell to the ground.
"What was that?" Young Link asked.
The someone who fell to the ground gets up turning visible revealing as armored monster with metallic armor pieces, black red skin and monstrous fangs.
"What the hell are you?" Davis asked.
The creature roars in answer as two more of them appeared at its sides.
"Oh great… Soulless inspired from Predator." Caleb said getting his fight stance as everyone did the same.
Then a swarm of Wasps Soulless appeared and new ones like velociraptors and has large arms and an Ophidian Soulless appear too.
"We're surrounded!" Zelda said.
"We can't give up now!" Lan said.
"Lan is right! We must fight!" Ash said.
*LET THE BATTLE BEGINS (FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE)*
"Let's do this Lan!" Mega Man Exe said.
"Understood!" Lan said and he activated the fusion with his Net Navi.
"Time to hunt!" Samus said as the baby Metroid takes shelter.
The Soulless Predators and Raptors roared as the wasps only buzzed.
"Sword! Fight! Power!" Sakura casts three cards.
One Predator Soulless tries to slash Prime but he dodges and performs a roundhouse kick in the Soulless' face, followed two punches and a kick, then Shadow teleports and realize a downward kick slamming the Predator Soulless against the ground and Sakura triple slashed the Soulless. However, the enemy recovered from the attacks and fired red lasers and as they dodged the attack, the Soulless disappeared. Shadow closes his eyes and punched the Predator Soulless by behind forcing it to appear visible, Shadow realizes Chaos Press and Sonic realized Sonic Storm which damaged the Soulless simultaneously, Sakura casts the 'Shot' card to strike the Predator Soulless, then Shadow realizes Chaos Lance as Prime Sonic Wind and both attacks finished off the Soulless.
ROB was firing lasers, but the second Soulless Predator was dodging the attacks, then the enemy throwed smart discs to the robot, but Lan uses his Mega Buster against the enemy attack and simultaneously protected ROB, then Samus fired her Ice Beam but the Predator Soulless dodged again and the Soulless slashed Samus and ROB, Lan pulled out the Knight Sword from his arm cannon and clashed with the blade from the Soulless, they pushed to each other until Predator Soulless performs a vertical but Lan ducks and fired a thunder from his arm cannon which stunned the enemy and Lan executes a barrage of punches as ROB spins his arms which were striking the Soulless, then Samus fired a charged Ice Beam shot which froze both legs from the Predator Soulless and she shoots a Super Missile, ROB fired a charged laser and Lan uses Mega Buster which destroyed the Soulless completely.
The third Predator Soulless attacks slashing but it was blocked by Link's shield and he realizes an upper slash, followed by Cloud realizing downward slash with meteor effect (like in Super Smash Bros) and Sora performs Sonic Blade damaging a lot the Soulless. However, the Predator recovered and fired more lasers, but Sora casts the Reflect Spell which returned the attack back at the enemy, then Link performs a rushing attack with the sword which damaged the enemy followed by Cloud realizing an upper and downward slash with the sword (Up Special Attack in Smash Bros), but the Soulless still have energies.
"I know how we can destroy that monster, but I need some time to realize my attack." Cloud said.
"Link and I going to hold it." Sora said as Link nods in agreement.
Then Cloud starts to charge energy, the Predator Soulless tries to attack but he clash with Link's Master Sword, they pushed to each other until Link moved aside and slashed diagonally the Soulless, then Sora realizes Strike Raid three times, they kept attacking as Cloud was charging his energy until the limit.
"Bringing my limit!" Cloud said.
Then he dashes off at the Predator Soulless and slashes the Predator Soulless with a kanji symbol forming simultaneously (Side Special Attack with the limit bar full) and finished off the Soulless. By other part, the children prepared their Spirit Evolutions.
Execute! Beast Spirit Evolution… BurningGreymon!
Execute! Beast Spirit Evolution… KendoGarurumon!
Execute! Beast Spirit Evolution… KaiserLeomon!
"Howling Star!" KendoGarurumon charges at extremely high speed and slashing two Raptors Soulless.
"Dark Master!" KaiserLeomon engulfs in dark aura ramming in the two Raptors Soulless.
"Pyro Barrage!" BurningGreymon fired flame shots which damaged the two Soulless.
"Our turn Aria!" Caleb said.
"Got it! Light Arrow!" Aria nodded.
Aria realizes her attack as Caleb realizes Thunder Raid and destroyed the two Raptors. In another zone, a Raptor Soulless tries to bite Sonic but he dodges.
"Too slow." Sonic mocked of the enemy.
The Raptor tries to bite him, but Sonic dodges again and realizes a sweep followed by an upper kick, followed by a homing attack and Mario with his Keyblade performs Ragnarok followed by Giga Impact, then Mickey casts Pearl from his Keyblade as Luigi casts Thundaga from his PG-00 which damaged the Raptor Soulless, Yoshi wraps his tongue around the Soulless, he pulled it and slammed his head against the enemy and Toby throwed an explosive can which destroyed the Soulless. After that the dog and the duck giggled in answer (Side Taunt in Smash Bros).
"Mantine, use Bullet Seed!" Tyson called his Pokémon like stingray.
"Take that!" Mantine said and shoot a lot of seeds hitting five Wasps Soulless.
"Piplup, use Whirlpool!" Verity commanded.
"Understood!" Piplup nods and creates a whirlpool which trapped five Wasps Soulless.
"Come out Glaceon and use Blizzard!" May said calling her Pokémon.
"Got it!" Glaceon said and lets out a blizzard which damaged and froze the wasps trapped in the whirlpool.
"Lucario, use Focus Punch!" Sorrel commanded.
"Understood!" Lucario concentrates energy in his right fist and punched the frozen whirlpool destroying the five Soulless in the process.
Keenan, Young and Toon Link threw their respective boomerangs at another Raptor Soulless, but he dodges with a jump, but the enemy was hit by behind ending stunned.
"Hydro Pump!" Oshawott realizes his attack.
"Thunderbolt!" Pikachu realizes his attack.
"Thunder Shock!" Both Pichu realized their attacks.
The four attacks attacks merged and destroyed another Soulless. The Ophidian Soulless tries to slash Jeri with its spear but she clashes with her sword, they pushed to each other until the enemy swings his tail hitting Jeri in the ankle and she fell to the ground, she gasps in fear when the Ophidian Soulless was ready to attack.
"Fist of the King Beast!" Leomon realizes his attack and damaged the Soulless. Then he approaches to Jeri. "Are you fine Jeri?"
"Yeah, thank you." Jeri said getting up. However, the Ophidian tries to attack again.
"No, you don't!" Medli said and she realizes aerial attacks against the Ophidian Soulless and slams the enemy to the ground.
"Psychic!" Mew realizes his attack to hold the Ophidian Soulless.
Then all the Digimon realizes their respective attacks and destroyed the Ophidian Soulless. Zelda with her baton realizes an attack which creates tornadoes trapping seven Wasps Soulless and ended unleashing a barrage (Baton's Special Attack).
"Fire!" Tai and Davis casted triple Firaga which finished a Wasp Soulless.
"Here I come!" Luke said preparing his Keyblade and glowing kunai.
Then he dashes and performs ninja movements slashing another Wasp Soulless, followed by Mimi, Henry and Rika performing a diagonal slash and finished off the Wasp Soulless. Yolei and Mimi realizes Strike Raid two times against another Wasp Soulless and finished it. Ash and Sor realize Thunder Raid destroying another Wasp Soulless.

And Kari with TK realized Rising Sun against the last Wasp Soulless and finished with Ars Arcanum.
*ENDS*
The transformed ones reverted at their regular forms.
"Yippee!" Pichu #2 jumped in victory.
"Huh?" Pichu #1 wondered as he notices Tai, Matt, Sor, Izzy, Mimi and Joe who were frowning, but TK and Kari have some tears in their eyes.
"Kari? What's wrong?" Gatomon asks her concerned.
"Those Soulless were people before…" Kari said.
"Now those people are gone…" TK said trying hard to hold his tears.
"Don't cry TK…" Patamon said trying to cheer him.
Ash approaches to him and pets TK's head. "We didn't have another choice TK."
"Ash's right, those Soulless kill everything." Caleb said.
In answer, TK nods and wipes his tears away, he notices Kari who is still crying softly and approaches to her.
"C'mon Kari, we can't give up, we must keep going." TK said.
Kari blushes a little turning to his boyfriend. "Thank you, TK."
She wipes her tears away.
"Do you know more about the Soulless?" Falcomon asked to Caleb.
"Those Soulless were people before, if you're defeated by those monsters you will become like them. Even if we destroy them, they won't return at the normality." Caleb explains.
"Just like when Gizumon destroyed Frigimon." Keenan said in sorrow.
"What are we going to do right now?" Sparrowmon asked.
"We must keep going towards the castle before the Soulless appear." Shadow said.
They nodded and continued.
Mountains
Meanwhile, Seth, Vanitas and Piedmon were fighting against three Soulless, one like centaur equipped with a spear, one like four-legged octopus and a Gnoll Soulless.
"Look that we have there." Piedmon said.
"So, the rumors were true. The new creatures with the crimson aura." Vanitas said.
"They won't rival against us." Seth said.
Gnoll Soulless tries to hit Piedmon with its axe but Piedmon dodges the attack.
"Trump Sword!" Piedmon attacks throwing five swords.
The Gnoll Soulless blocked one with the shield, but the others four swords stroke the Soulless.
"Clown Trick!" Piedmon realizes his attack and destroyed the Soulless completely.
The Octo-Bomb Soulless was approaching to Vanitas but he attacks with Blizzard Edge and realizes Blitz, but the Octo-Bomb Soulless was glowing. However, Vanitas kicked the enemy away like a soccer ball and exploded afar from him.
"Too slow for you." Vanitas said.
The Centaur Soulless spun his spear and jumps to the air slamming his spear causing a shockwave, but Seth jumps and fired dark orbs towards the Centaur Soulless, then he creates a dark energy blade in his scepter and slashed the Centaur Soulless several times. In answer, the Centaur Soulless smacks his spear against the Seth, but he grabs the weapon and manages to disarm the centaur and slash the enemy with the spear. Then Seth fired dark energy blades towards the Centaur Soulless, Seth teleported himself appearing behind the centaur and stabbed his scepter in centaur's neck and brought it down to the ground. The Centaur Soulless tries to get up, but Seth stabs his scepter in the centaur's stomach throwing it to the ground yet, then he slices it underside a bit as in another hands forms a dark aura sphere and throws it inside the Soulless, after that he snaps his fingers causing a dark explosion which destroyed the Centaur Soulless.
"Those creatures are invading my ancient kingdom." Seth said.
Then Quan Chi appears in a dark corridor.
"So, this is the kingdom were you lived before." Quan Chi said.
"By fault of this commoner, I lost everything and I'm going to reclaim it myself." Seth said.
"I have a message from Tabuu." Quan Chi said.
"What is this time?" Seth asked.
"The Xehanort from the past want to test your powers even if you aren't a Keyblade Master." Quan Chi said.
"Very well. But do a request for me as your future king of Aether Kingdom, search Caleb with Aria and brought them to me alive and destroy everyone who interferes." Seth said.
"Understood Seth." Quan Chi said and Seth disappears in the dark corridor.
Unknown Ruins
Back with the main group, they found some ancient ruins.
"Where are we?" Terriermon asked.
"This place is in ruins." Lopmon replied.
In the central altar a white feather was floating.
"What is this?" Biyomon asked.
"It seems a white feather." Veemon (dark blue) said.
Then he approaches to the feather.
"Veemon, what are you doing?" Caleb asked.
"There is a white feather floating by itself." Veemon (dark blue) asked.
"Caleb-san, what is this place?" Sakura asked.
The teenager watched around the place and replied. "This place was a temple built in honor at the heroic Digimon who defeated Apocalymon 1,000 years ago."
"Look!" Mew said pointing at the feather which starts to glow.
The white feather glowed and shows a projection of white giant six-winged bird.
"Who is that Digimon?" Pikachu asked.
Ash pulled out his Pokédex. "Varodurumon, a Holy Bird Digimon. It's a mythical Digimon that inhabits the stratosphere in the sky. According the legend, it's the guardian of the sky, and it's told that it's an ancient Digimon that has existed since the creation of the Digital World. Its attack is Purge Shine."
"I'm feeling so weird." Tai's Agumon said.
"Me too." Biyomon said.
"Chosen ones by the Digivice." Varodurumon said.
The children with their Digimon wondered.
"We guide the balance between the Aether Kingdom and the Digital World, and I use the remaining power for gave you a necessary knowledge." Varodurumon said.
"What is?" Damemon asked.
"Long time ago there was a war, this place turned our last fortress. Humans and Digimon working together." Varodurumon said.
Then the place changed showing a huge temple before to be turned into ruins.
"What?" The group of Digimon wondered.
Suddenly an army of evils Digimon appeared going towards the castle.
"Uh-oh…" Luigi gulps nervously.
"Onii-Chan, I'm scared." Sakura said shivering in fear.
"It's only a projection from the past." Aria reassured her.
"It's okay, don't worry Saki-Chan." Prime said.
"The light and darkness from both worlds. The darkness broke the balance between both opposite forces and attacked with everything." Varodurumon explained.
Then all the Digimon start to take their fight stances.
"Renamon?" Rika asked.
"I'm starting to feel weird too." Renamon said.
"MarineAngemon, what's wrong?" Kenta asked.
"Hmm…!" MarineAngemon was focusing at the evils Digimon.
"Tentomon, are you alright?" Izzy asked.
"I'm feeling weird too." Tentomon replied.
"This is very familiar." Veemon (blue) said.
"What do you mean?" Davis asked in confusion.
"I'm feeling creeps too." Dracomon said.
"I don't like them." Lunamon said.
"Maybe, all our Digimon have a connection with their ancestors from the past." Caleb replied.
Then in the army, a familiar enemy appears in the army revealing as Apocalymon.
"Apocalymon!?" The Digidestined and Tamers exclaimed.
Caleb gasps as he flashbacks his first battle against Apocalymon before to sleep 1,000 years.
"The darkness was infecting both worlds. We fought against them with our all strengths and our brave warriors." Varodurumon resumed.
In the projection, the same Varodurumon along with her army of Digimon collided against the dark army causing a wind shockwave as everyone covered. Then a lot of shadows from different Digimon appeared.
"That shadow is from MirageGaogamon." Thomas said recognizing the shadow of Digimon like anthropomorphic armored wolf.
"It's hard to believe." Gaomon said.
"Look Yoshi!" Lalamon said.
"You too Mimi!" Palmon said.
"Those shadows are from…" Yoshino was saying.
"Rosemon." Mimi completed recognizing the shadows from Rosemon.
"That shadow is from Ravemon." Keenan said noticing the shadow of an armored humanoid bird.
"It's true." Falcomon said.
"Look boss, that is my mega form!" Marcus' Agumon said watching the shadow from a metallic dragon equipped with a sword.
"ShineGreymon was there too." Marcus said.
"Look at that!" Shoutmon exclaimed watching the shadow of a bigger version of himself.
"What is Shoutmon?" Mikey asked.
"It can't be…!" Sparrowmon said.
"But it is…" Ewan said.
"Shoutmon X7!" Mikey, Nene and Christopher completed.
"Tuwarmon is there too!" Damemon said watching the shadow from his alternate form.
"But who is the other Digimon along with Shoutmon?" Ewan asked watching the shadow of another humanoid dragon.
"No idea." Shoutmon replied.
"Bokomon, do you know more about the Ten Ancient Warriors in the past?" Takuya asked.
"Perhaps the Ten Ancient Warriors lived in the past where Varodurumon appeared." Bokomon replied.
"This kingdom was an advanced civilization before the destruction." Aria said.
"Maybe the Ancient Warrior of Darkness helped Varodurumon to win the battle." Koichi said.
"I know the name from every Ancient Warrior, AncientGreymon, AncientGarurumon, AncientBeetlemon, AncientKazemon, AncientMegatheriummon, AncientWisemon, AncientVolcamon, AncientTrojamon, AncientMermaimon and AncientSphinxmon." Bokomon said recognizing every shadow as he was checking his book.
"There are more of them!" Neemon said.
"Look at that Takato." Guilmon said recognizing the shadow of Gallantmon.
"It's Gallantmon!" Takato said.
"My mega form is there too!" Terriermon said recognizing the shadow of MegaGargomon.
"Sakuyamon and Justimon are there too!" Rika said recognizing the shadows from both mentioned Digimon.
"Where am I?" Guardromon asks dumbfounded.
"Maybe that shadow from Andromon." Kazu said noticing the shadow of an uploaded version of Andromon.
"It's me!" MarineAngemon said.
"Whoa!" Kenta gasped.
"This is the shadow from SaberLeomon!" Joe said recognizing the shadow of a bigger lion with saber tooth.
"That must be the mega level from Leomon." Jeri said.
"My mega level?" Leomon asked.
"But I thought SaberLeomon was one of the bad guys." Marcus' Agumon said.
"The Leomon from our Digital World is a good Digimon and he can Digivolve into SaberLeomon." Palmon said.
"Look at this giant bunny!" Suzy said watching the shadow of Cherubimon.
"It's Cherubimon!" Takuya, Koji, Koichi, Zoe, JP and Tommy recognized the shadow.
"Is that my form in the mega level?" Lopmon asked.
"But where am I!?" Impmon asked.
"Sadly, your ancestor was one of the bad guys. Sorry Impmon." Caleb said.
"Aw man…" Impmon groans in defeat.
"Don't worry Impmon, at the end the Beelzemon from the past joined to the group." Caleb said.
"Look Davis." Veemon (blue) said.
"Who is that Digimon?" Davis asked as they were watching the shadow of another armored dragon humanoid.
Davis, Yolei and Cody with their Digimon watched the shadows from others Digimon, a shadow of a Grandis giant stag beetle, another like winged humanoid and another like winged armored humanoid.
"Those shadows are from Digimon too?" Hawkmon asked.
"Probably yes." Armadillomon replied.
"We didn't never saw them before." Davis said.
"Those must be the mega level from Armadillomon." Cody said.
"And the mega level from Hawkmon too." Yolei said.
By last, more shadows from familiars Digimon are there too.
"It's WarGreymon!" Agumon said.
"With MetalGarurumon!" Gabumon said.
"Hououmon!" Biyomon said.
"HerculesKabuterimon!" Tentomon said.
"Vikemon!" Gomamon said.
"Seraphimon!" Patamon said.
"Ophanimon too!" Gatomon said.
"And me as Magnamon X!" Veemon (dark blue) said.
They watched the shadow of Magnamon riding a Digimon like winged dragon with a spear and there is another Digimon like armored humanoid equipped with a weird weapon.
"That Magnamon is riding an Examon." Thomas said.
"Examon?" Dracomon asked.
"Possibly that is your mega level form." Luke said.
"When I will reach the mega level?" Lunamon asked.
"Soon Lunamon." Aria said petting her Digimon.
"And so…" Varodurumon said.
The battle continued and collided in an explosion as everyone covered themselves again, then the shadow of Omnimon appeared right before their eyes.
"The evil forces were defeated… But when the god of darkness known as Shinnok appeared, he destroyed everything in the Aether Kingdom, the braves Digimon fought against him too, but they didn't had chance against Shinnok, until the chosen by the key used all his strengths and finally defeated Shinnok and he was sealed in the NetherRealm. The damages were several and our existence…" Varodurumon was saying.
After the explosion, the Aether Kingdom was totally damaged, the rivers were dry, the vegetation was dying, the sky was red and dark, fire in the forests and houses destroyed.
"Everything was destroyed, until the chosen one by the Sacred Heart and the last Chosen Digidestined used their light from their hearts to restore everything even if required sacrifice themselves." Varodurumon continues explaining.
'Just like when Mecha Sonic destroyed part of Mobius in my universe.' Prime thought.
Then the shadows from different children glowed and restored everything, rivers, forests and living beings who were struggling in survive and the chosen ones vanished from existence. Then a ring of digital cubes was spinning and formed 32 Digi-Eggs and 20 Digi-Spirits, 10 human form and 10 beast form and they were dispersed and suddenly tears appeared in the eyes from every Digimon, except Calumon, Bokomon and Neemon.
"Guys! I'm watching much tears!" Neemon said.
"Agumon!?" Tai asked.
"Why are you crying?" Sor asked to her Digimon.
"I don't know." Biyomon replied as the tears continued falling.
"Those tears appeared by itself." Tai's Agumon replied.
"Are you okay Gabumon?" Matt asked.
"I'm okay Matt, don't worry for me." Gabumon said.
"Izzy, do you know what's happening to me?" Tentomon asked.
"Maybe there are connection between you and those Digimon from the past." Izzy explained.
"Mimi…" Palmon said with tearful eyes.
"I'm here Palmon." Mimi said comforting her.
"Joe…" Gomamon said.
"It's okay Gomamon." Joe said.
"Don't cry Patamon." TK said hugging his Digimon.
"Sorry TK, I can't stop." Patamon said sobbing.
"Gatomon…" Pikachu said and hugs her.
"Thank you, Pikachu…" Gatomon said blushing as her tears continued falling.
"Veemon, are you crying?" Davis asked.
"No…" Veemon said trying to wipe his tears.
"Don't be sad Armadillomon." Cody said trying to comfort him.
"I'm sorry Cody." Armadillomon said.
"I'm here Hawkmon." Yolei said hugging her Digimon.
"Thanks, Yolei." Hawkmon said.
"Takato, something is happening to me." Guilmon said.
"Don't worry Guilmon." Takato said.
"Terriermon?" Henry asked.
"Momentai…" Terriermon said closing his eyes but the tears continued falling.
"Renamon, are you okay?" Rika asks concerned.
"This is my first passing for this." Renamon said watching how her tears were falling.
"I don't feel so good Suzy…" Lopmon said with tearful eyes.
"Momentai Lopmon." Suzy said hugging her.
"Leomon?" Jeri asks concerned.
"This is weird." Leomon said.
"Kazu, why am I crying?" Guardromon asked.
"I thought that the robots doesn't cry." Kazu replied.
"But he is a Digimon like MarineAngemon." Kenta said holding his Digimon in the arms.
"What the heck is this?" Impmon yelled trying to stop his tears.
"Everyone seems sad." Calumon said with the ears shortened with sorrow.
"Boss, I got something in the eyes!" Marcus' Agumon said.
"Don't worry Agumon." Marcus said.
"Yoshi, I don't feel fine." Lalamon said.
"I'm here Lalamon." Yoshino comforts her.
"You don't look so well Gaomon." Thomas said.
"I'm fine sir. Don't worry for me." Gaomon said.
"Why Falcomon is crying?" Keenan asked.
"I don't know Keenan." Falcomon said.
"Shoutmon!?" Mikey asked.
"I'm okay Mikey." Shoutmon said closing his eyes.
"I'm sorry Ewan." Damemon said.
"Don't worry." Ewan said.
"Nene…" Sparrowmon said and sobs.
"I'm here Sparrowmon." Nene said comforting her.
'This is so weird.' Christopher thought.
"Veemon, don't feel bad, I'm here." Caleb said and hugs his Digimon.
"Thanks Caleb…" Veemon (dark blue) said.
"Lunamon, don't cry." Aria said hugging her Digimon.
"I'm sorry, I can't stop!" Lunamon said sobbing.
"Are you crying Dracomon?" Luke asks kneeled in front of his Digimon.
"Only I have some tears falling from my eyes." Dracomon replied.
'So, this happened when I felled unconscious. I slept 1,000 years and the Aether Kingdom was destroyed, and Aria used her Sacred Power to restore everything…' Caleb thought.
"Guys, look." Sakura said.
The place changed bringing everyone back at the present.
"We believe that a new danger will appear in the future and new enemies will attack again in other worlds. But only the chosen heroes will be able to stop the upcoming dangers." Varodurumon said.
Then a screen of a Digi-Egg appeared.
"The Digimon will fight and learn, increasing power." Varodurumon explains as a Botamon hatched from the Digi-Egg and continues Digivolving until arrive at Greymon. "They will leave their childhood; they will grow and mature. It's the life from the Digimon. They born in the Digital World ruling the evolution's law. The evolution will arrive to the end, but it will advance until an infinite limit."
"This is so confusing for me." Lan said.
"In the end of our lives, we had a mysterious vision. A new power beyond the evolution's law. You all are our last hope to protect the worlds after our death, the Chosen Ones." Varodurumon said.
"Us?" Luke asked.
"Be careful, the enemy is still advancing in different worlds. If the kingdom of all hearts, known as Kingdom Hearts, fall into wrong hands, it will bring disaster to the entire universe." Varodurumon said and disappeared.
"Did you understand this, Prime?" Caleb asked.
"Yes, despite the battle in the past, the evil is still existing everywhere. But if we work together, we're going to save this universe." Prime said.
"I'm thinking the same." Caleb said in agreement and turn to his Digimon. "Do you feel better Veemon?"
Veemon (dark blue) who finally stop to stream tears like the others Digimon, he said. "I'm alright Caleb."
"Let's keep going." Caleb said.
They nodded and continued. They were advancing until Caleb stopped finding a weird treasure chest.
"What is that?" Mew asked.
"I'll check it." Caleb said pulling out his tablet close the treasure chest and opens it.
And inside the chest, there is a purple card.
"What's inside?" Henry asked.
"It's a purple card." Caleb replied.
"Just as Azulongmon told us." Terriermon said.
"Finally, we found it." Lopmon said.
"I want to try." Suzy said.
"Wait Suzy, we should use it when we need it most." Henry said.
Suzy is very young, but after to watch the backstory she nods and saved the purple card with the other cards.
"Now only reminds find those two Digi-Spirits." Tommy said.
Then the team continued walking towards the castle of Aether Kingdom. Unknown for them, DemiDevimon was watching them.
"That backstory was so boring, but I finally found those Digidestined. I'm going to tell it at the others." He said and took flight.
Plains
Meanwhile in the plains of the Aether Kingdom, Quan Chi possesses a Zombie Soulless with his dark magic, then he makes appear a green skull in the zombie's right hand and the sorcerer makes the Soulless smack himself with the skull, followed by Zombie Soulless twisting his own neck. The sorcerer teleports himself appearing above the Soulless stomping the enemy and Quan Chi fired a green energy skull which destroyed the Zombie Soulless.
"How disappointing." Quan Chi said.
"Lord Quan Chi!" DemiDevimon said flying towards the sorcerer.
"What is this time little bat?" Quan Chi asked.
"I found the heroes; they're going towards the castle of this ancient kingdom." DemiDevimon informed.
Quan Chi laughs evilly and replied. "Destroy them and turn them into revenants will be fun, then I'll kidnap the young children and bring them to Master Xehanort."
"But Lord, we're outnumbered by them." DemiDevimon said nervously.
"There's no problem with that, because I'm going to bring the revenants from the NetherRealm." Quan Chi said.
"Revenants?" DemiDevimon said.
"The same EarthRealm warriors abandoned by Raiden." Quan Chi replied and disappeared in a dark corridor.
"Now, somehow I'll reach the Digidestined to the trap." DemiDevimon said.
Castle Town
The team managed to arrive at the castle town which is in ruins like the entire castle.
"1,000 years passed, and I couldn't protect the people in the past. It's all my fault…" Caleb said depressed.
"Don't blame yourself, we weren't prepared for that attack before." Aria said.
"She's right, don't cling at your own mistakes and learn of them." Prime said.
In answer, Caleb nods in thanks. Then a Neo-Shadow Heartless with turquoise glow appeared in company of shadows, Dusks, Snipers and Gambler Nobodies and Corrupts Green Coredramon.
"One of them looks different from the others." Sora said.
"Caleb, follow that Heartless, we are going to defeat the other enemies." Prime instructed and Caleb nods.
The team fights against the enemies as Caleb was pursuing the glowing Neo-Shadow. He performed a Sonic Blade, but the Neo-Shadow dodged the aerial slam and scratched Caleb in the gut who backed up in pain.
"V-Headbutt!" Veemon (dark blue) tries to attack but the Neo-Shadow dodged and smacked the Digimon.
"Veemon!" Caleb exclaimed, when the Neo-Shadow was going to attack again.
"Tear Shot!" Lunamon said using her attack.
"Boom Bubble!" Patamon used his attack hitting the Heartless.
"TK! Aria! What are you doing here?" Caleb said noticing his girlfriend and the 8 years old kid.
"I want to help you." TK replied.
"Me too." Aria said.
"Ok, let's do this together." Caleb said. Aria and TK nodded in answer.
They attacked with a vertical slash and casted Firaga as Aria fired a spirit shot attack damaging the Heartless. Patamon uses Boom Bubble and Lunamon uses Tear Shot but the Neo-Shadow was dodging and smacked both Digimon.
"Lunamon!" Aria exclaimed approaching to her Digimon.
"Patamon!" TK exclaims but the Neo-Shadow slashed him behind.
"TK!" Caleb exclaimed and performs a horizontal slash, but the enemy dodged and slashed him.
"Caleb!" Aria exclaimed. 'I must protect him too!'
She thought and got ready to face the Neo-Shadow.
'This Heartless is stronger than the previous ones!' Caleb thought panting.
"I… can't… give up…!" TK said getting up and behind of him the Human Digi-Spirit of Ice appears glowing. "Huh?"
Then the D3 from TK glows and the Digi-Spirit went inside of his device.
*WITH THE WILL (DIGIMON FRONTIER)*
The outline of the Digi-Spirit appeared in TK's D3 with a ring of data around his other hand and swiped with the device.
Execute, Spirit Evolution… Kumamon!
The bearer of hope transformed into the ice warrior.
"TK?" Patamon asked.
"Whoa!" Veemon (dark blue) gasps astonished.
Back in the fight, the Neo-Shadow dodges an attack and kicked Aria in the right cheek who yelps in pain.
"You won't get away with it! Crystal Breeze!" Kumamon said and attacks with froze wind which damaged the Neo-Shadow.
However, the Neo-Shadow performed a homing attack hitting Kumamon in the face sending him flying, but the ice warrior smirked and pulled out his blaster.
"Take this! Blizzard Blaster!" He attacks and hits the Heartless. In answer the enemy dashes off and slashed several times the white bear.
"Magnega!" Caleb casts Magnega which trapped the Neo-Shadow and saved TK. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, thanks." Kumamon said as he was helped by Caleb.
"This is our chance!" Caleb said.
"Alright! Frozen Tundra!" Kumamon said changing into an icicle and damaged the glowing Neo-Shadow.
"You're finished!" Caleb said and performed a x-slash finishing the Heartless.
*ENDS*
After that, the glowing Neo-Shadow disappeared releasing a turquoise petal and Caleb caught it.
"Aria, I got it!" Caleb said.
"Great job Caleb!" Aria said coming with Lunamon.
Then the petal entered in the spiritual body of Aria.
"What happened?" Lunamon asked.
"We defeated that Heartless and that petal was released." Kumamon explains.
"TK, you were awesome!" Patamon said landing in the ice warrior's head.
"Thanks." Kumamon said.
"Hey!" Tai's voice said coming with everyone who defeated the enemies.
"Who is that cute polar bear?" Suzy asked.
"Kumamon?" Tommy asked recognizing him.
"Where is TK?" Matt asked watching around the place.
"It's me, TK." Kumamon said.
"He transformed into the ice warrior." Caleb explained.
Kari approaches to Kumamon and asked. "Is that you TK?"
"Yes Kari." Kumamon nods.
In answer Kari giggles and said blushing. "You look so cute."
"Thank you, Kari." Kumamon said with his hands behind the head laughing and blushing.
"Did you make it?" Luke asked.
"Yes, we got the second fragment of Aria's heart. Now remains six fragments." Caleb said.
"Phew…" The ice warrior sighed exhausted before to revert back in TK.
"Are you okay?" Calumon asked.
"Only I'm a bit tired." TK replied.
"The other fragments must be in the kingdom." Prime said.
"If the Soulless appeared in this world, then there are more of them inside the castle. I suggest hurry up." Shadow suggested.
They nodded and continued exploring the place as Matt was carrying TK on his back who is still tired. But the Heartless and Nobodies appeared again, Shadows, Neo-Shadows and new ones like 'Helmed Body' with 'Satyrs' and Sorcerer and Ninja Nobodies.
"Not now!" Caleb grunts under his breathe.
The team fought with everything they have as Prime realized his Whirlwind in a Helmed Body Heartless and followed by Sonic Wind defeated the enemy, he realizes somersault kicks against a Satyr and finished with Wind Arrow. Sakura who transformed her wand into a sword she manages to defeat the Shadows and Neo-Shadows. And Shadow attacks with Lightning Punches and Kicks against the Nobodies followed and finished them with Chaos Lance.
"They're gone." Mew said.
They continued searching until in the park zone of the town the enemies appeared again, Corrupts Woodmon, with new Heartless too like Flame Core and Malachite Bolero.
"Woodmon!" Zoe said. 'If I only had my Human or Beast Digi-Spirit, I would settle score against them.'
Prime realized Focused Homing Attacks and Sonic was realizing aerial kicks against the Malachite Boleros, Mew was using Water Pulse and Oshawott using Razor Shell against the Flame Cores, and Caleb clashed his Keyblades transforming them into an axe, then he spins the axe and finished the Corrupts Woodmon.
"Those were all?" Kazu asked.
"Not yet, we must keep going." Shadow said.
They continued until in an alley, Corrupts DemiMeramon, different Popcats Heartless (regulars, vitalities, munnies and magics) and Reaper Nobodies appeared.
"DemiMeramon!?" Marcus said.
"Not them again!?" Marcus' Agumon said complaining.
"Piplup, use Hydro Pump!" Verity commanded.
"Lucario, use Bone Rush!" Sorrel commanded.
"Your turn Gaomon!" Thomas said.
"Yes sir!" Gaomon nodded.
Gaomon uses Gao Rush and Piplup fired bubbles against the Corrupts DemiMeramon defeating them, Lucario who summoned a glowing energy bone he smacked every Popcat defeating them and Shadow uses Chaos Rift which he enters in a temporal rift and unleashed seven attacks in the four Reaper Nobodies and destroyed them.
"I can sense Aria's heart over there." Caleb said.
"How you are sure?" Luigi asked.
"I can feel it." Caleb replied.
"Let's a go." Mario said and they continued.
The group continued until they arrived at a downer area.
Sewers
The group arrived at the sewers of the Aether Kingdom and surprisingly the water is clean.
"Now to where?" Kari asked.
"This way." Caleb said.
They continued but the Heartless appeared again, new ones like Water Cores and Marines Rumba.
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Ash commanded.
"Got it!" Pikachu nodded and unleashes his attack.
"Thunder Shock!" Both Pichu said realizing their attack and with the merged attacks they defeated the enemies.
"The path is clear." Ash said.
They continued until they found a metallic door where another petal was there.
"How I can open this door?" Caleb asked.
"Try with this lever." Mew said.
Then Caleb pulled the lever opening the metallic door where the petal was inside of a cage.
"I need to open this cage." Caleb said.
"Leave that to me." Shadow said. "Chaos Burst!"
Shadow produced an explosion and destroyed the cage releasing another petal. Caleb manages to grab the turquoise petal and entered in Aria's body.
"Thank you, Shadow." Caleb said.
Shadow nods in answer.
"We got three, only remain five fragments." Caleb said.
Then the group decides to exit from the sewers.
Castle Town
The group was in the outside and they were still searching until Dusk Nobodies, Neo-Shadows Heartless and Corrupts Digimon like flying snakes appeared.
"Who is that Digimon?" May asked.
Thomas checks in his Digimon Analyzer. "They're Quetzalmon in armor level and they attack with freezing wave."
"Here I come!" Sonic said and realized homing attacks in all the enemies and landed with style. "Woo! Feeling good!"
"Prime!" Caleb called him who nods.
They realized a Limit called 'Prime Force', Caleb realizes Tornado Strike and Prime realizes Whirlwind against the enemies, followed by the blue hedgehog realizing Sonic Cracker and Caleb casting Mega Flare to defeat the Dusk Nobodies, the teenager realized Sonic Blade and Prime realized somersault kicks against the Corrupts Quetzalmon and Caleb clashes both Keyblades forming a hammer and jumped to the air as Prime was charging an attack.
"Wind Pulse!" Prime unleashes his attack as Caleb slammed his hammer against the ground causing an explosion finishing all the enemies.
Sonic whistled and says, utterly amazed. "Those attacks of yours are way past cool! Where'd you learn them?"
"I learned through out the years." Prime said shrugging.
"That was cool!" TK exclaimed.
"Yeah, awesome!" Tommy added.
"I might be a little jealous." Marcus said.
"Nice skills!" Shoutmon said giving a thumb up.
"Whoa!" Sora said.
"You and Prime make a great teamwork." Luke said and then he makes a noogie in Caleb's head.
"Hey stop!" Caleb said laughing.
"Hey, can you teach me how to do all that? I wanna try out those attacks too!" Sonic asked, eagerly.
"It's not something to learn easily, and I'm not sure if you have the right kind of energy like I do." Prime replied shaking his head. That only made Sonic groan in disappointment, folding his arms as he pouted. "Sorry, Sonic. But I'm sure you can come up with your own skills if you carefully channel into your Chaos Energy. Besides, you're still way past cool with your skills already."
The younger Sonic shifted a bit uncomfortably. "Yeah, but, the way how you did it is awesome, but now I feel like a rookie hero all over again. The only new skill that I learned is how when me and Kari realized a Limit Attack against an army of Corrupts Digimon in Twilight Town."
"Now where are the other fragments?" Lunamon asked.
"Check at this weird wall." Dracomon said watching at the weird wall and everyone approaches.
"It seems a kind of puzzle." Navi said.
Then Caleb steps into a blue floor switch and the others 3 silver rings start to move, he paid attention at the silver sphere which has 3 different points. As Caleb focused he swings his Keyblade in the silver circle making the ring to stop in the rightful point, then he steps in the red floor switch and made the same and in the last and yellow floor switch did the same, and in answer the wall revealed a mural of the castle of Aether Kingdom and another turquoise petal appears, but Berserker Nobodies, Satyrs and Helmet Bodies Heartless appeared.
"I'm getting tired of these monsters!" Toon Link said.
"Me too!" Young Link said.
"Let's do this!" Sora said and manages to activate his Valor Form.
They fought with everything until defeat them. Then Caleb grabs the petal and it gets inside of Aria.
"Only half remains." Caleb said.
The group keeps walking until they found a fountain with 10 propellers.
"An empty fountain with no water…?" Sora asked.
"I'll check it out." Caleb said.
He approaches at one propeller and smacked with his Keyblades until the water came out but for a little time.
"Maybe ten of us must smack at the propellers simultaneously." Izzy suggested.
"Understood." Caleb nods.
Then Tai, Matt, Sor, Izzy, Mimi, Joe, TK, Kari and Ash got in different positions staring at the propellers.
"Ok, get ready guys…" Tai said.
"Three…" Kari counted.
"Two…" TK counted.
"One!" Ash concluded.
Then they smacked the propellers with their Keyblades simultaneously and the water came out from the fountain and reveals the fifth turquoise petal, got by Caleb and reached inside of Aria. However, Water Cores, Ninja Nobodies and new Corrupts Digimon like armored mermen with scuba gear.
"Who are those Digimon?" Veemon (blue) asked.
"They're Depthmon." Shoutmon replied.
"Let's beat them!" Mikey said.
The team manages to fight, dodge the enemy attack and defeat them in the shortest possible time.
"I can feel another fragment over there." Caleb said and they continued.
Central Plaza
The team arrives at the central area of the town and they found another petal.
"There it is!" Caleb said and comes running.
"Caleb wait!" Shadow said and uses the Chaos Force to pull Caleb away as a pool of darkness appears below the petal.
"What the…!?" Caleb exclaimed.
From that pool of darkness, a glowing turquoise Darkside Heartless appeared.
*DESTINY'S FORCE (KINGDOM HEARTS 1.5 REMIX)*
"What is that!?" Sakura asked in fear.
"The same Heartless from my dream before to get the Keyblade." Kari replied.
"One of those fragments are there!" Caleb said.
Someone laughed evilly revealing as DemiDevimon.
"You again!?" TK growled.
"One of you nearly fall in the trap, but now is ruined to that black rodent." DemiDevimon said.
"You won't escape from us!" Mew said and uses Psychic to grab DemiDevimon.
"What!? I can't move!" DemiDevimon exclaimed.
"Now it's my turn!" Marcus said and punched DemiDevimon as the DNA energy came out.
"This is our chance!" Thomas said.
*BRAVE HEART (DIGIMON ADVENTURE TRI)*
"Digi-Modify! Digivolution Activate!" The Tamers used their cards through their respective D-Arks, except Kazu and Kenta.
"Digi-Modify! Matrix Evolution Activate!" Kazu and Jeri used the blue card through their D-Arks.
"Let's do this Veemon!" Caleb said.

"Let's do this!" Lan said.

"Yeah!" Pichu #1 said.
"Thank you!" Pichu #2 said. They nuzzled against Sakura's cheek. She couldn't help but giggle by their cuteness.
Back in the battle the Darkside fired dark shots but Mercurymon got in front of the attack.
"Dark Reflection!" Mercurymon returns the attack back at the Heartless.

"I finally found you!" Tommy said.

*ENDS*
After that, the glowing Darkside disappeared releasing the sixth turquoise petal which was grabbed by Caleb and later goes inside of Aria. All the Digimon reverted at their regular forms, but this time Angewomon reverted into Salamon and GrapLeomon reverted back in Elecmon.
"Salamon." Kari said approaching at her Digimon.
"Only I'm bit tired." Salamon said.
"Elecmon." Jeri said coming close at the Digimon.
"This doesn't happen every day." Elecmon said.
"That was the sixth fragment." Aria said.
"There are two more." Caleb said.
"That's true." An elderly voice said revealing as Master Xehanort.
"Master Xehanort!?" Prime and Caleb said and Xehanort chuckles in answer.
"What do you want this time!?" Matt asked putting in front of TK.
"You better must stay away from my sister!" Tai warns as he puts himself in front of Kari.
Master Xehanort chuckles again and turns to Caleb.
"Tell me destiny's wielder, despite you became in a true Keyblade Master. Why did you realize the Mark of Mastery along with the Digidestined?" Master Xehanort asked.
"I did it to get more power, enough to protect my friends, my brother, my girlfriend and defeat you." Caleb said.
"Maybe, the destiny's crest allows you restore Aria's heart even if she lost her powers of the Sacred Heart. But not everyone can have the same luck, like the loved ones or those meddlers." Master Xehanort said.
"And what about Ven, Terra and Aqua!?" Sonic demanded.
"Let's say that the plumber couldn't save them on time." Master Xehanort said.
"That's not true! It's your fault for make them disappear!" Ash said angrily at Master Xehanort.
"I only tried to forge the X-Blade with the heart from Ventus, about Terra he tried to fight against his own darkness but he failed and Aqua, her location is still unknown." Master Xehanort said as Ash was clenching his fists and gritting his teeth.
"Enough!" Ash said summoning his Keyblade. "I'm going to fight alone against you! In the name of Ven, Terra and Aqua!"
"Ash! Don't do it!" Sor says worried grabbing Ash's left hand.
"She is right, is very risky fight against him alone." Prime said.
"I know the bad things that Xehanort did in the past, but don't let that your own anger turn into darkness." Mario said.
Ash thought in seconds, he sighs and vanished his Keyblade.
"How sad? I was a little interested in test your powers." Master Xehanort said before to disappear in a dark corridor.
"Is he gone?" Sakura asked a little afraid.
"Yes, by now." Prime said.
"But his troops can attack us." Shadow said.
"Let's search inside the castle." Caleb said and they nodded.
The group make their way towards the castle.
Castle of Aether Kingdom
The group searched by the corridors and every room as some Soulless like skeletons and zombies were ambushing them, but the heroes managed to defeat the dangerous enemies.
Castle of Aether Kingdom: Throne Room
The group arrived at the throne room.
"The place changed a lot after 1,000 years." Aria said depressed.
"Don't feel bad Aria-san." Sakura said.
"I found it!" Caleb said noticing another turquoise petal in the throne chair.
"Be careful Caleb." Prime said and Caleb nods.
The teenager approaches at the petal and he watches around the place and finally grabbed the petal which goes inside of Aria.
"I never expected you arrive here, my dear Aria." Another elderly voice said revealing as a spirit of an old man with white hair and beard wearing royal clothes known as the King of Aether King, Sakura gasps afraid after to see the ghost but Prime comforts her.
"Dad…" Aria gasps before to stream tears. "I'm so sorry…"
*DESTINY'S UNION (KINGDOM HEARTS: BIRTH BY SLEEP)*
"No, I'm the one who should say sorry." The king said before to open his arms. "Can you forgive at your foolish father?"
In answer, Aria burst in tears and approaches to hug her father, she continues crying while the king was rubbing her back to comfort her. The children in the group couldn't help, only they smiled sadly, Caleb, Sakura, Sor, Mimi, TK, Kari, Yolei, Cody, Takato, Rika, Jeri, Suzy, Zoe, Tommy, Christopher, Ewan, Nene, Ash, May and Tyson streamed some tears at the scene.
"I'm sorry for not supporting you enough." The king said as Aria cries more. "I was so focused on my duties as king that I ended up failing in my duties as a father."
"But our home is destroyed…" Aria said crying.
"Don't worry, nothing is more valuable than my own daughter." The king said wiping away Aria's tears.
"Father, those people share similarities with their ancestors. And this is my brother Luke, she is Sakura, and they're Shadow and Sonic Prime." Caleb said and the others introduced.
"I'm the Prime of the Omniverse, wielder of the miracle of determination and leader of the team." Prime introduced.
"It's an honor to meet you." The king said.
"Likewise." Prime said.
"I see that you're rebuilding the team." The king said.
"Dad, this time I'll fight along with Caleb and my friends, I'm going to give my best." Aria said.
"I know you will." The king said.
"Father, after I slept 1,000 years Shinnok managed to escape from the NetherRealm, but I defeated him. Now the people of this kingdom can rest in peace." Caleb informed.
"Good job Caleb." The king said.
"Majesty, more dangerous enemies appeared and they're endangering the other worlds like the Soulless, the Brotherhood of Evil led by Bowser and the Organization XIII led by Master Xehanort, Lucemon and Kronika and by last Tabuu who led the Subspace Army." Prime explained the recent situation.
"Tabuu is back!?" The king gasped in shock.
"Yes, despite his defeat in the past, he returned, and he has wishes of revenge against us." Caleb said.
"Majesty, someone called Seth was brought to our world thanks to Tabuu and now he wants to rule every world." Henry said.
"No…" The king gasps.
"He also possessed Ryo and Cyberdramon." Kazu added.
"I see." The king said and turn at the heroes. "Hear my words heroes, you're the last hope to stop those villains, save Ryo with Cyberdramon, make Seth see reason and save the worlds. Now, go forth, in the name of Aether Kingdom."
They bowed to the king and they departed.
"Caleb, I want to tell you something before to depart." The king said making stop at the teenager.
"What is?" Caleb asked.
"It's about your true father." The king said.
"My father!? Did you meet him?" Caleb asks surprised.
"Yes, I meet your father. He was one of the most exceptional knights in my kingdom, he defeated a lot of monsters and saved innocent lives. But in one mission he ended badly injured and lost, until a woman from a coastal village found him and healed his injuries. So that's where love was born and brought you here with your brother to this world. Me and my queen gave birth to our own children too, Seth and Aria, but my queen passed away when Aria was 5 years old. When the King Vampire stared to invade everything, your father told me one thing, he said, 'If something bad happens to me, I want you to take care of my children' and I accepted it. In the war, Aria was separated from me when she was 8 years old and your father died at hands of the King Vampire and your brother disappeared until he appeared alive today, and thanks to you, you found my daughter and brought her to me alive. But when you arrived with Aria, Seth was getting jealously and followed a dark path, I couldn't do anything. But thanks to your efforts, your team managed to defeat every villain who was threatening my kingdom, but we weren't prepared when Shinnok destroyed everything, including the people and the heroes but their sacrifices weren't in vain and you who woke up after to sleep 1,000 years, you finally defeated Shinnok." The king said.
"I see and I also thank for accept me in your castle, because Aria means a lot for me, she is like a sister and I love her with all my heart." Caleb said.
"I'm glad to know it. Now, go forth, in the name of Aether Kingdom." The King said.
"Yes Majesty." Caleb said bowing. "I have one more thing."
"Tell me." The king said.
"I'm restoring Aria's heart and only remains one fragment. Therefore, she will return to the normality." Caleb said.
"I wish you good luck." The king said before looking up at the sky and the wind starts to blow. "My time has come."
"What do you mean!?" Caleb asked a little stressed.
"You, Luke, Aria, Prime and your friends must continue your journey… without me." The king told.
"Where are you going!?" Caleb asks in concern.
"You must fulfill your destiny." The king said as he was vanishing slowly.
"Don't leave me here!" Caleb said between tears.
"Remember…." The king said and vanished completely.
*ENDS*
Caleb sniffled and wiped his tears before to depart.
Corridors
Caleb gathered with everyone.
"Where have you been Caleb-san?" Sakura asked.
"I talked with the king, he told me about my true father and now I'm ready to fulfill my destiny." Caleb said.
"Where is the last fragment?" Lunamon asked.
"Let's search it in the cellar." Caleb replied.
They nodded and continued.
