As Kai was sucked in it felt like falling out of the sky. He could only flail around as he hopelessly tries to find something to grab onto. He was in endless darkness until saw a light? Was it hope or death? He thought. He was about to find out as he was heading straight towards it.
—————————————————————
"Kaichi?"
Kai heard a voice but didn't see anybody. He decided to ignore it.
"Kaichi? Are you there?"
It was probably his mom, he didn't want to deal with this. "Five more minutes, and don't call me kaichi." He mumbled.
"What do I call you then?"
Ok, this voice wasn't his mother, she wasn't a guy after all. Maybe it was one of the counselors, "Kai." He said slowly while blinking his eyes open.
"Kai it is. By Yggdrasil, you humans have such strange sleeping positions. Do all humans sleep like this?"
Kai was confused. Human? what was he, Kai's eyes then shot wide open. He realized two things from there. One was that he was upside down, and more importantly, there was some creature in front of him.
It looked to be some kind of small black dinosaur. It had green eyes, white claws and black leather belts mounted on its arms.
The green eyes bored into Kai. "Well glad to see you awake from your slumber Kai." It spoke to him, Kai then responded to the situation the way most others would, he screamed and frantically backed away.
"Is this how you humans greet one another?" It asked and then proceeded to yell at him which only installed more fear in Kai. "G-Get the hell away from me you, uh, Jurassic park reject!" Kai yelled trying to seem intimidating, but it was only amusing to the dinosaur.
"Oh I see, you must be frightened . It's all right Kai, calm yourself. I'm not here to hurt you, I promise." The dinosaur said with its arms raised to calm the boy down.
Kai calmed himself but kept his distance. "Who the heck are you? What the heck are you?" Kai asked.
"Ah where are my manners?" The dinosaur said, chuckling to himself, "My name is blackagumon, your personal Digimon partner." Blackagumon then proceeded to get closer to Kai.
"P-Partner? What do you mean by partner'' mean?" Kai asked. "It means…" Blackagumon proceeded to put Kai in an uncomfortable headlock as he explained. "We have been chosen by destiny to meet and help fix the digital world. Where we digital monsters, Digimon for short, live. You got all that?"
"Yeah I got it, now please let me go." Kai said and the dinosaur did as it was told. Kai rubbed his neck but soon noticed an uncomfortable pain in his right wrist. Kai pulled his sleeve and saw where the pain was coming from. It looked like a strange device that seemed to be a cross between a watch and a gauntlet. It was sleek and black in color with orange lines that resembled that on a computer chip, the lines then all connected to a rectangular screen, if you were to look down there would be some orange buttons and diamond shaped hole that the lines connected to.
"W-what the heck is this?" Kai asked as he attempted to get it off but to no avail, it was almost as though the watch was connected to his skin. Blackagumon then grabbed Kai's hand to stop him trying to take it off and explained, "That would be your digivice, this one being the D-bound model. It'll be useful for our endeavors later. Try not to bother it."
Kai stared at the device and pressed one of the buttons, he pointed at Blackagumon and out spoke a monotone voice.
Blackagumon, Rookie level, Virus type, special attacks: spitfire blast and body blow
"So this is part of the whole partner thing too huh?" He asked sarcastically. "Exactly, You're already adapting to it. Now we are wasting time, let's go venture for the others." Blackagumon said as Kai followed his new friend he supposed.
Though if he was here, it didn't take much guessing as to who the others are.
—————————————————————
They walked along for some time now. Kai, while nervous, he supposed that Blackagumon was adamant in helping him. Blackagumon finally stopped as they were in a more clear area of the strange colored forest. It also had seven rocks in a circle, with an eight one away from the rest.
"Ah here we are." Blackagumon said as Kai glanced at the area. "What are we doing here? You said we would go find the others." Kai said. "Oh don't worry, We had known that you would likely scatter. So we had planned to meet here with one another." Blackagumon explained.
"So we just sit here and hope your "friends" come along?" Kai said as blackagumon nodded. Kai sighed at least he could finally sit down and have some moment of peace as Blackagumon observed him.
That moment of peace didn't last long as they heard a rustle through the bushes. "Excellent." Blackagumon said as he came near the bushes. "That must be-Gah!"
Blackagumon was interrupted as a bug creature rammed into him, causing blackagumon to fly into a tree. "Hah, got 'em. One enemy down already. Ya saw that Issac?" The bug said as it also carried some fruit with him.
Kai was currently making sure Blackagumon was ok until he heard the mention of Issac. "Issac?" Soon enough Issac came to the area also. He was currently fiddling with his digivice. It was the same as Kai's but the orange parts were purple.
"Yeah yeah hold on a sec, Wait Kai?" Issac heard him and ran forward to hug him. "Oh thank god I'm not alone? Are you doing ok?" Kai asked. "I'm doing great. We just discovered some new dimension. Monsters exist, imagine other new worlds. I wonder if there are others like this one?"
Issac began to ramble on and on with Kai smiling the whole way until the big bug coughed. "Hey man, ain't you gonna introduce me?" The bug asked.
Kai got a better look at the bug. It looked to be some blue beetle with a large horn and green eyes. "Oh right, this is my partner Kokabuterimon. I suppose you have one too?"
"Yeah your partner kinda hit mine." Kai said as Blackagumon stomped angrily towards the bug. "What's the matter with you, why did you attack me?!?!" Blackagumon yelled angrily as embers spewed from his mouth.
"Oh, that was you. I thought it was some ugly enemy," Kokabuterimon said while munching on his food. "Though I should've known better from your big stupid head."
That line caused blackagumon to snap. "Don't call me head big! It's normal sized for my species!" He yelled. "Sorry but there ain't nothing normal about that." Kokabuterimon said seemingly to rile him up which worked.
Smoke came out of blackagumon nostrils as he snarled. "Spitfire blast!" He yelled as he fired a fireball, narrowly missing him. Kai tried to calm Blackagumon down but Blackagumon spewed more flames as Kokabuterimon ran to dodge them.
Kai and Issac were so busy trying to stop Blackagumon from incinerating Kokabuterimon that they didn't notice Sara coming from the bushes. A fireball pointed towards her direction as Kai pushed her on the ground, missing an awful burn.
"Sara, uh are you alright?" Kai asked as Sara got up and dusted herself. "Well aside from waking up in a random place with no adults around and nearly getting incinerated. I suppose I'm fine." She said as Kai sheepishly scratched his head and Blackagumon nervously came to Kai's side.
"I guess flame breath here is your partner?" Sara asked. "Y-yes, my apologies." Blackagumon said nervously. "So where's your partner?" Kai asked. "Well I wouldn't," "THERE YOU ARE SARA!"
A loud screech interrupted them as the group covered their ears. "DID YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED I WAS?! DON'T RUN OFF LIKE THAT AGAIN!!"
From the air came down some type of ball shaped creature that resembled a music note. It was black and had bat-like wings with speakers on them and one yellow eye in the middle of its head.
"You don't have to screech so loudly Soundbirdmon." Sara said to the creature. "I have to, How else would you be able to hear me?! Nonetheless I'm glad you are safe. Now as for you!" Soundbirdmon flew towards Blackagumon and seemed to peck at him. She screeched about how reckless Blackagumon was and kept pecking until Minato came in the middle of the place.
He frantically turned his head and saw the other digimon. "What?! There's more of you freaks?!" He asked frantically. "Freaks, you're the ones in our world, you're the freak here." Kokabuterimon said.
"Get the fuck away from me!!" Minato yelled as he fell, clearly panicking at the sight of the bug. Kai scratched his head and approached Minato to lend him a hand.
"Relax man, they ain't gonna hurt us." Kai said as Minato glared and slapped his hand away. "You don't get to talk you albino fucker!! Your the reason we're here you piece of,"
Minato was interrupted as three people or two Digimon and one person came in. The person was Junya and he was holding some yellow frog like Digimon with orange fur and black spikes. The second was a pink lizard with a white fur coat with purple stripes, green claws and had a pink horn.
The lizard crashed into Minato and hugged him happily, "Why did you run off minato?" It asked. But Minato kicked him off. "Didn't I tell you to fuck off?" Junya sighed. "Minato, freaking out isn't going to get us out of this. These creatures mean us no harm." Junya explained.
"Yeah dude, besides if we wanted you dead we wouldn't have come all this way to find ya." The frog said.
"Hello there, who are you two supposed to be?" Issac asked, trying to disrupt any conflict.
"My name's Gizamon, I'm partners with Junya." The frog said. "And my name's Psychemon, I'm friends with Minato! Are you friends with Minato too?" Psychemon asked. "I ain't your friend!" Minato said angrily, "and none of these bozos are my friends either, especially albino over there!" Minato pointed and glared at Kai.
"Alright, It seems almost everyone is here, now we need Chikafuji and Kochiyama." Junya said.
"LET ME GO YOU ANNOYING WEED!"
Everyone turned to find Lily being dragged to the area by the vines of her partner. Her digimon seemed to take the form of a green mandrake-like creature. It had three purple vines on each hand that acted like fingers with root-like feet, a tail and a light purple flower on its head. Her vine fingers wrapped around Lily' hand.
"Oh it's you guys." Lily said with a frown. "Sorry for the wait everyone, she was being difficult." Her partner said glaring at Lily.
"Huh, It seems Digimon vary a lot in appearance." Issac said while writing in his notebook. "Yep, this is Alraumon, my best friend forever apparently." Lily said. "The least you can do is be cheerful about it." The plant said not liking the tone.
"What on earth is there to be excited about?! I'm stuck in a disgusting forest with a bunch of monsters roaming around. Do you see how messed up my clothes are?!" Lily said angrily. "Oh boo hoo your clothes are dirty, suck it up and deal with it." The plant replied.
"Ok, But we still need to find Minato's brother." Junya said. "Step brother," Minato corrected while crossing his arms. "Doesn't he have one of you guys with him too, right?"
"Yes, and by process of elimination he would have Tsukaimon, which isn't great." Gizamon said as he got a nervous expression on his face. "Is Tsukaimon a bad digimon?" Junya asked. "Well, he's not bad or evil," Psychemon said while rubbing his arm. "He just, well,"
"An arrogant piece of sukamon?" Kokabuterimon said bluntly with the others nodding in agreement.
"I was gonna say overconfident but I suppose that fits too." Psychemon replied.
"He can't be that bad, can he? Can't be any worse than Minato." Kai said, trying to give the digimon the benefit of the doubt. However Blackagumon scoffed in response.
"Oh, wait till you've met him."
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————
"Hurry up KC! I want to get there first!" KC sighed as he went to catch up with his Digimon partner, Tsukaimon.
Tsukaimon took the form of some purple guinea pig with large purple bat ears for wings, a white underbelly and golden eyes. He laughed as he saw his human struggle to catch up, "Are all humans this slow or are you just that weak?" He mocked which somewhat hurt KC but decided to ignore the insult.
"Hey Tsukaimon, do you have any way of getting me back home?" KC asked. "No. I'm your partner, I'm supposed to be protecting you." The hamster answered.
KC carried a somewhat doubtful expression. He just met the digimon and he didn't seem much of a fighter and quite frankly the hamster seemed to view him as inferior, could someone like that really protect him. Unfortunately, Tsukaimon seemed to take notice and glared at his partner.
"Are you thinking I'm weak?" Tsukaimon asked as KC frantically shook his head. "N-No it's not that," AJ replied. "You k-know it's just that,"
"Hah so you underestimate me. Underestimate my power!" Tsukaimon said to the poor boy, getting in his face. "S-sorry I offended you." KC said but it was useless. Tsukaimon flew until he laid on a large tree. "Stand there, You shall see the power of the great tsukaimon as I destroy this tree!"
KC tried to persuade Tsukaimon not to do that but it was too late, Tsukaimon let out an eerie grin and got ready to unleash his power.
"Friendly fire!" Tsukaimon inflated like a balloon and then unleashed a purple fireball from his mouth. The fireball hit the tree leaving a burnt mark on it, but not tearing it down.
Tsukaimon scowled, "You think you can mock me, tree? I'll show you what happens when you mock me!" He unleashed more and more fireballs at the tree, further hitting it and burning it but it still didn't get knocked down.
"A-Alright Tsukaimon, You have proven how strong you are? Can we go find the others please?" KC asked but it was no use. Tsukaimon then started to also headbutt the tree. The tree creaked and ached until finally it started to fall.
Luckily it didn't fall in KC's direction, but it seemed to hit something else as they heard a shout of pain.
"Tsukaimon! I told you to stop! Now look at what you did!" KC scolded pointing at the tree. "Yes! The tree has been vanquished, Victory is mine!" Tsukaimon shouted and laughed with pride. KC sighed as he went towards the area with tsukaimon following behind.
"Hey are you alright?" KC asked. The voices came from three Digimon of the same species. They were red wasps with green eyes and a black visor with a blue symbol.
KC's digivice began beeping as he got it out and it showed some information.
Flybeemon, Armor/champion level, Data type, special attacks: Fly spark and Needle stinger.
"Huh? Did you knock down that tree?" One of the Flybeemon asked. "Well I did, the useless human simply watched." Tsukaimon bragged as the bugs glared at him.
"What are you filthy heathens doing on our territory? I thought we casted you all out!" Another of the bugs said. "Well it seems not. You can't get rid of us that easily." Tsukaimon glared "Uh, what are you on about? Look I'm sorry my partner destroyed your tree ok, can't we talk through this?"
"This human has sided along with them?" The first Flybeemon said. "Eliminate them, make sure they don't escape!" The third one ordered.
The two nodded and aimed their tails, "Fly spark!" The two yelled as lightning came from their tails firing at the duo.
KC and tsukaimon barely dodged it. They decided to run, well, KC decided to run. Tsukaimon attempted to fight them himself but KC grabbed him and ran.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————
The others soon started to get worried and started to search for him, yelling out for his name but he didn't respond. Minato was getting more and more frustrated and proceeded to scream in frustration and kick the dirt. "Where the hell is the stupid brat already?!?!" He yelled in anger. "Calm down Minato, I'm sure your brother's ok. He has Tsukaimon to protect him." Psychemon said once again to reassure his partner. "Are we going to rely on Tsukaimon to do something right?" Alraumon chuckled while crossing her arms. Psychemon gave her a deadpan stare, "not helping."
"Wait, Since Soundbirdmon can fly, shouldn't she be up in the sky and she can alert us where he is?" Isaac asked. "And leave Sara's side, I object to this!" Soundbirdmon cried out. "Soundbirdmon, we are all here in case something happens to the bitch. And besides, KC could be in danger so just go up there." Minato said angrily. "LAST TIME I WAS GONE SHE WAS NEARLY INCINERATED!" Soundbirdmon argued with Sara rolling her eyes at her partner's distress.
"Look, just go already and get to finding him."
"Stay out of this albino freak!"
"You're really doing this right now, I'm literally agreeing with you!"
"You're the reason we are here in the first place!"
"Yeah you go search for him."
"Shut it you spoiled bitch!"
"What did you just say to me you emo freak!"
Kai, Minato and Lily then all started to argue about who will search for KC. Junya and Isaac were forced to play peacemaker but they weren't getting anywhere, soon Blackagumon, Psychemon and Soundbirdmon got involved as well.
Sara and the rest of the digimon simply watched the drama unfold. "Is something you humans do often?" Gizamon asked. "Well with people like them, you should expect tons and tons of yelling and screaming, just let them tire themselves out." Sara said she was about to sit down as KC ran into her, knocking them both into the ground. "Hey guys I found him." Sara said which stopped all of the arguing.
"Let go of me foul humans!" Tsukaimon said as he finally got out of KC's grasp and flew above the others. "Tsukaimon, where in the digiworld were you?!" Alraumon shouted. "Being awesome." He replied with high amounts of smugness.
"Chikafuji, what happened?" Junya asked but all that came out was frantic muttering until Minato shook him. "Words dumbass." He growled which surprisingly calmed KC and was able to speak.
"I met Tsukaimon, Tsukaimon destroyed a tree, it hit the Flybeemon and now they want us dead." AJ said.
Alraumon's vines extended to Tsukaimon and pulled him down angrily as she spoke severely to the hamster. "What in the dark area were you thinking Tsukaimon, why would you just go around attracting attention like that?"
"It was all the human's fault, he doubted my strength!" Tsukaimon said but the others didn't buy it. "Don't blame the human for your mistakes. Maybe he won't doubt your strength but now we all doubt your intelligence." Blackagumon said. Tsukaimon attempted to defend himself but wasn't able to as the three Flybeemon flew towards the kids and their partners.
"Ugh, more of them. They're like a plague that needs to be gotten rid of." The Flybeemon stated. "Look, we apologize for disturbing you but don't you think you're overreacting? Surely we can make some sort of compromise." Sarah asked. "There are no compromises to those that side with the viruses. All virus digimon must be destroyed! Fly spark!" The three bugs fired at them.
"Kai, get you and the others to cover, we'll handle this!" Blackagumon said. "You gonna be alright?" Kai asked. "We'll be fine now, get going!" Aruraumon said as the kids got into cover, observing the fight.
"Nemesis ivy!" Aruraumon said as she fired her vines at the foes. She yanked one of the three out the sky and kept her hold.
"Spiral saw!" Gizamon then came in, rolling his blades into the grounded Flybeemon. The Flybeemon yelled in pain as the others came to help him. However the others intervened.
"Friendly fire!" Tsukaimon launched another fireball that hit the second Flybeemon but the bug dodged the second and came charging at him.
"No one hurts my friends! Colored sparkle!"
Psychemon launched a ray of primary colors at the foe which had got them on the ground. Kokabuterimon charged in yelling "Scoop smash!" And rammed into the bug flying into a tree.
"Spitfire blast!"
Blackagumon launched fireballs at the final one but it dodged the flames. "Hmp, you vermin are so weak aren't you? Is that all you got?" It taunted but it didn't taunt for long.
"Sound finish!"
Soundbirdmon unleashed a blast of sonic waves from her mouth which immobilized the Flybeemon. Staying in one place allowed it to be hit by a fireball from Agumon.
Soon all the digimon decided to unleash all their attacks at once.
"Scoop smash!"
"Spiral Saw!"
"Nemesis ivy!"
"Giga scream!"
"Friendly fire!"
"Colored sparkle!"
"Spitfire blast!"
Kokabuterimon and Gizamon attacked one of the Flybeemon, Aruraumon then grabbed it by its vines allowing the others to use their elemental attacks on it.
The Flybeemon screamed in pain and when it was over, bits of data began to leak from its head. The other two then quickly carried the third off and retreated into the woods.
Blackagumon spewed another dozen fireballs at them but they missed as the Flybeemon were too high. "Cowards!" Blackagumon shouted. "At least our friends are safe." Psychemon said to which Blackagumon calmed himself and nodded in agreement.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————
The kids ran to their Digimon and went to congratulate them. "Woah man, that was awesome! Good job." Kai said as Blackagumon nodded his head with pride.
"Oh I did a good job too, right Minato?" Psychemon asked as Minato sighed. "I supposed you looked kinda cool I guess." That seemed to be good enough for the pink lizard as it hugged Minato again, much to the boy's displeasure.
"We thank you for defending us." Junya said while bowing to Gizamon who simply laughed. "It's our job bro. No need to bow." Lily stared at Alraumon nervously and sighed, "Thanks for saving us." She said to her partner which Alraumon smiled in response "You're welcome." She replied.
"I guess you lot aren't so bad after all." Sara said to her partner. "Of course not, was there any doubt?" Soundbirdmon cheered happily. Sara gave a small smirk, "Quite a lot actually."
"Now Tsukaimon, I believe you have something to say to KC." Blackagumon said but Tsukaimon shook his head. "I have nothing to say to him, he should apologize for disregarding my strength." Tsukaimon said but then was wrapped by Alraumon's vines and slammed to the ground. "Let go of me you bastard!" Tsukaimon yelled. "Not until you say sorry for causing this mess." Alraumon said simply.
"C-calm down guys, you don't need to do all that. He is kinda right that I did underestimate him being able to protect me, but now I know he can." KC said. Alraumon rolled her eyes but did so, "You are way too nice to be his partner." She said to KC.
"Hey, since we are all safe now, Can you explain what those flybeemon were referring to, with the vermin thing? I would like an answer to that." Isaac said as everyone else agreed. Blackagumon sighed and put his hand on the top of his head. "Yes, that is what you are here for after all. Let's head back to the meeting area, get you some food and we will get to explaining your purpose here." He said.
The humans all nodded and head back to the meeting area, hopefully they could find some answers as well as a way home.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————
So here are all the partners, most are either subspecies of the original 8 or Digimon that fit similar vibes. Anyways here are their personalities.
Blackagumon- Friendly but can be very easily angered. This blackagumon is based on the 2006 Agumon, you know the one marcus's Agumon is. He cares a lot for virus digimon and hopes to save them.
Psychemon- Very friendly and kind and a massive optimist. Works as an opposite to minato.
Soundbirdmon- A massive worrywatt, mostly only caring for her partner and not much else. Very loud and obnoxious but ultimately just wants her partner to be safe.
Kokabuterimon- A laidback and pretty lazy guy, served as the brawn to Isaac's brain also he's kinda a jokester at times, tho he mostly does it to Blackagumon.
Alraumon- A Digimon that heavily cares for safety of her kind similar to blackagumon, has very little tolerance to Lily's antics and intends to shape her up.
Gizamon- Just a silly and friendly little guy, not much else to him really. He is the youngest of the digimon tho.
Tsukaimon- An arrogant piece of garbage, he's extremely selfish and only really cares for gaining more and more power, think of him like power from chainsaw man in terms of personality. Overall a person you don't want to be around.
