Digimon Adventure 02 fan-reboot

This story will be a fan reboot of Digimon Adventure 02. It will take place after Digimon Adventure 2020 as a sort of sequel, but it will contain some elements of the original 02, with some small plot changes.

The main difference being that all the kids still have their Digimon partners with them in the real world (which means Tailmon never lost her tail ring), they can now get to the digital world using Koushiro's Digital gate project we saw at the end of 2020, and Takeru is able to keep in touch with his friends better due to the better technology and communication methods. There are also more changes but I won't spoil them for plot reasons. ;)

Pairings: Sorato, Takari(will happen mainly after I write the chapter for that episode)

Prologue: The disappearance of Courage

One month earlier…

Taichi: "Dammit! If only you could evolve, we could wipe the floor with this guy!"

Agumon: "I know, Taichi but for some reason I just can't evolve to Greymon…"

Taichi and Agumon were in the Digital World enjoying their time when they were attacked by an individual who called himself the Digimon Kaiser. It felt odd that the Digimon Kaiser tried to fight them with only Allomon that Greymon could easily take out, but they soon found that Agumon was unable to evolve. Even worse, it seemed the Digivice communication feature was unusable which stopped them from telling Koushiro that they needed a gate.

Digimon Kaiser: "HAHAHA! It's useless! You and your pathetic Digimon won't be able to win against me while I have my dark Digivice." The Digimon Kaiser was on the head of an Allomon laughing maniacally at Taichi and Agumon.

Taichi: "If only we could evolve or contact Koushiro… no it doesn't matter, we won't go down like this right buddy? We'll be there for each other through thick and thin right?"

Agumon: "Yes, I'm with you Taichi, every step of the way!"

Back at Koushiro's office

Koushiro: "Hikari! I need you to get in my office now!" Koushiro was screaming into his phone.

Hikari: "What happened Koushiro?" Hikari questioned, slightly worried that Koushiro had called her randomly in the afternoon and started yelling for her to go to his office.

Koushiro: "It's Taichi… I… I lost his Digivice signal."

Hikari's face paled as she quickly grabbed her own Digivice and started tying her shoes.

Hikari: "Tailmon quickly! We need to get to Koushiro's office!"

Tailmon: "What happened Hikari?"

Tailmon bounded to Hikari with concern etched on her face.

Hikari: "We need to help Onii-chan! His Digivice signal…"

Tailmon merely nodded as the human and cat-like duo started running straight for Koushiro's office.

When they got there was a very hasty written note by Koushiro saying he went into the digital world to try and find Taichi.

Hikari was about to enter the digital gate, when Koushiro came out of it with his head hung low.

Hikari: "Kou- Koushiro?"

Koushiro: "I'm sorry Hikari I… I couldn't find him." Koushiro said with a deep remorse.

Hikari fell to the floor with tears in her eyes.

Hikari: "N-No that c-can't be possible… you wouldn't leave m-me. Y-You will always come back no m-matter what… right Onii-chan?"

That's the end of the prologue :D hope you enjoyed it! Sorry that it doesn't really have any action to it i mainly intended for this to be the main reason as to why Taichi would be absent for some of the story. I always felt that a 02 reboot should have Taichi being considered as lost as he would probably be in the digital world a lot which could lead to a lot of mini adventures and dangerous situations for him, such as meeting the Digimon Kaiser before the 02 cast comes in.
