"And so it begins"
Please enjoy and review!
Parents were gathered around the elementary school with their children who all had bags with them, walking over to the school bus that would drive the students off to summer camp.
Standing in the crowd was a tall and muscular man with spikey black hair, tanned skin and brown eyes who was dressed in a pair of jeans, red sneakers and a grey button down shirt.
At his side was a 13 year old girl with fair skin, brown eyes and spikey magenta colored hair who was dressed in a purple sleeveless turtleneck, yellow pants and pink shoes who was carrying a black schoolbag.
Finally, standing on the man's other side was a 7 year old girl who had burgundy hair, tanned skin and brown eyes who was dressed in a black tank top, pink pants and blue sneakers.
The back of her hair had been pulled up into a ponytail while her bangs hung in her face.
"All right, here we are. Now, are you sure you want to do this, Davinia?" David Motomiya asked his youngest daughter.
"For the millionth time, Daddy, yes! I wanna go to summer camp. It sounds like it'll be fun." Davinia 'Davey' Motomiya pouted up at her father.
"And besides, Dad, you already paid for the trip. And I doubt they hand out refunds." Jun Motomiya commented.
"You don't know that. They could give refunds." David said.
Jun sighed at that, shaking her head in disbelief.
Ever since Davey had decided to go to summer camp to try and make friends with people her age, their father had begun to panic and tried to talk the little girl out of going.
He was taking the overprotective father routine to a whole new level.
"Daddy, we've talked about this. I'm going. Get over it." Davey stated.
"Where did you learn that attitude from?" David demanded in surprise.
Snickering at this, Jun then glanced over to see the students boarding the bus and she turned her attention back to her father.
"Dad, the kids are starting to get on the bus now." She told him.
Looking over to confirm this, David gained a worried look on his face as he started to walk over to the bus, spotting one of the teacher's in charge of the trip.
"Now, remember what we talked about, Davinia. About our deal." David then brought up.
"I know, Daddy, I'll be careful and I'll keep our secret." The girl said.
Relaxing slightly at that, David then forced a smile as he approached the female teacher who was looking over a clipboard in her hands.
"Hello, ma'am?" He questioned.
Head perking up, the woman looked up at the man and her grew wide in surprise at how young and handsome the parent in front of her appeared to be.
"Oh, um, hello, sir. How can I help you?" The woman asked as she blushed.
Flashing the woman a charming smile, David then gently pulled Davey forward in the woman's view and Jun handed the black school bag over to her sister.
"I'm here to drop off my daughter for camp." He said.
"Ah, all right. Name?" The woman questioned.
"I'm Davinia Motomiya!" She chirped.
Looking down at the girl, the woman couldn't help but coo over her and went back to looking for her name on the list she had.
"Ah, here we are. You can go on inside now and find a seat. We'll be leaving soon." The woman smiled.
"Okay!" Davey nodded.
She then moved forward to board the bus, but was tugged back, noticing that her father hadn't let go of her hand.
Identical frowns crossed the Motomiya sisters' faces as they glanced up at their father.
"Dad/Daddy." Jun and Davey scolded.
Giving a sheepish chuckle, David released his youngest daughter's hand and watched as she happily skipped up the bus steps, her ponytail swinging behind as she did so.
A frown was on the man's face as he watched his child leave his sight, a feeling of unease swarming inside his chest.
"Come on, Dad, let's back away from the bus." Jun said as she grabbed her father's arm and pulled him away.
The female teacher was amazed by the strength the young teenager seemed to have as she carted her father away from the vehicle.
Inside the bus, Davey was glancing around at all the kids inside and felt a bit nervous at being around so many people, but she took in a deep breath to calm herself down.
She knew what would happen if she got overly emotional and she didn't want to break her promise to her father so soon.
"Hi there!" Someone spoke up.
Flinching at being addressed so suddenly, Davey turned to see a boy her age with dark blond hair, peach toned skin and dark blue eyes dressed in a green vest over a long sleeved light green shirt, khaki shorts, green and white shoes and a strange green hat with a blue gemstone on it was waving her over.
"You can sit with me if you want." He offered with a bright smile.
"Uh, t-thanks!" Davey smiled, surprised by the kind offer.
Walking over to the seat, Davey sat beside the boy.
"I'm TK, by the way. What's your name?" The blond, Takeru 'TK' Takaishi, asked.
"I'm Davey. Nice to meet you." She smiled.
As the two 7 year olds spoke, Jun spotted them together and couldn't help but feel proud of her little sister.
"Aw, look at that. Nia's already making new friends." Jun smiled at her father.
Looking over, David saw his daughter sitting in the seat with a boy her age and she was smiling.
It made him smile as well, but he still felt uncomfortable at leaving his youngest child alone.
He would have felt better if Jun was allowed to go with Davey, but since she was attending a different school, the staff couldn't allow her to go with them much to David's frustration.
Just then, an 11 year old boy with dark blond hair, fair skin and dark blue eyes dressed in a sleeveless green turtleneck, brown gloves, jeans and brown boots walked onto the bus, glancing around for someone.
When he spots TK and Davey sitting together, he makes his way over to the two kids.
"TK." He spoke up.
Hearing the preteen's voice, TK looked up and smiled at the boy who looked like an older version of him.
"Hi, Matt! What took ya so long?" TK asked as Davey turned to look up at him.
"Sorry, Dad had to finish up some work before bringing me." Yamato 'Matt' Ishida apologized.
His eyes then moved over to the girl who was sitting beside his brother, not recognizing her and wondering if she was friends with TK.
"All right, kids, take your seats!" A male teacher called.
He and the other chaperon both boarded the bus, looking the group over as Matt took the empty seat that was behind the two 7 year olds.
"That includes you, Tai." The male teacher said.
Whining at that, a tanned 11 year old with wild brown hair and brown eyes wearing circular goggles, a blue t-shirt with orange stars on the sleeves, a yellow pocket on each side of the chest, and three yellow buttons on the top over a slightly longer yellow t-shirt with a turtleneck collar, brown cargo shorts, a black wristband on his left arm, white gloves and blue and white sneakers slumped down in his seat.
"Man, why does he always single me out like that?" Taichi 'Tai' Kamiya complained to the girl beside him.
The girl, Sora Takenouchi, had short orange hair, tanned skin and maroon eyes who was wearing a blue hat, a yellow sleeveless shirt with a white high collar and white hemline, jeans, pink gloves and red and black shoes.
"We are now leaving to the camp grounds, so everyone sit down and don't leave your bags in the aisle. It needs to be clear for everyone to walk by. Also, no food or drink on the bus." The teacher, Mr. Fujiyama, said.
With that said, the bus was turned on and the kids all turned to look out their windows, waving to their families.
Spotting her father and sister standing beside a black pontiac, Davey smiled at them and waved when they glanced her way, knowing her father was second guessing his choice to allow her to go.
"Hey, do you want to play a game?" TK asked her suddenly.
"What kinda game?" She asked him.
Grinning, TK held up his fist with a thumb stuck up and Davey copied him curiously.
"One, two, three, four. I declare a thumb war." TK said as the two began their game.
(A few weeks later...)
TK and Davey spent most of their time at summer camp inseperable, running off to play games and search the camp grounds for all kinds of flowers and pretty looking stones.
Matt had taken it upon himself to watch over the two kids, making sure they didn't venture too close to the water or go up to the mountains by themseves.
After checking her school bag, Davey had found her sister had placed her cellphone inside for her to use and she checked to see that Jun had placed all of their family friends' numbers inside in case of an emergency.
Finding her house number, Davey had called her father to tell him that she made a friend and his older brother was watching over the both of them which set David's worries at ease, happy to know someone responcible was looking out for his daughter.
Currently, TK and Davey were both going on a nature walk with Matt following behind them, keeping an eye out for any snakes or large insects that might be in the long grass.
As they walked, Davey felt something wet and cold fall on her nose which made her sneeze.
"You okay, Davey?" TK asked her.
"I think I felt a raindrop on my nose." The burgundy haired girl said as her nose twitched.
"Raindrop? Come on, we should get back to the cabins before it rain-" Matt trailed off.
Before their eyes, snow started to fall down from the sky and the air became frigid.
"Wow, it's snowing!" TK laughed.
"But how? It's summer." Davey exclaimed.
"Let's get inside quickly. Let's go." Matt said as he escourted the duo into the nearest cabin.
Sora and Tai rushed inside the cabin as well along with three other kids who were nearby.
One of them was 10 year old Mimi Tachikawa who had light skin, light brown, wavy hair and bright brown eyes who was wearing a western-style red dress with a buttoned turtleneck, a brown belt with a gold buckle, brown gloves with straps around the wrists, a large pink cowgirl hat and brown and white boots.
Next was a 10 year old boy named Koushiro 'Izzy' Izumi who had spikey red hair, light colored skin and onyx eyes who wears an orange button up shirt, olive green shorts, yellow gloves and grey and purple shoes.
Lastly was an 11 year old boy named Joe Kido who had spikey blue hair, onyx eyes and pale skin and wears glasses with large square frames, a green watch on his left wrist and a yellow wristband on his right wrist, a white short sleeved button-up shirt under a cream vest with blue trimmings, grey shorts, and red and white shoes.
The group of children all gathered up inside the cabin as a storm raged on outside, confusing everyone since it was August and there shouldn't be snow for a few more months.
Opening her bag, Davey searched through it until she found a blue sweater inside and pulled it out so she could wear it, making sure to pull her hood up, wanting to hide her head in case something happened.
Izzy had pulled out a laptop and he was trying to bring up a news report on the situation while Joe was panicking over the strange weather and Mimi was simply humming to herself as she twirled a strand of hair around her finger, watching the snowflakes fall.
Tai and Sora were silently whispering to each other while Matt sat down beside TK and Davey, nodding to the kids as they talked about the snow.
Afterwards, the snow finally stopped falling and the storm let up, so Tai walked over to open up the door, glancing around at the freshly fallen powder that covered the ground.
"Whoa. I guess canoe races are canceled, so let's have toboggan races instead!" He laughed before running out.
"I'm gonna build the biggest snowman!" TK giggled as he bounced out.
"Wait for me!" Davey called as she ran after him.
"Hey, TK, Davey, be careful! Slow down!" Matt called as he ran out after the children.
They ignored him and began running around in the snow, dropping down to make snow angels.
"Brr! It's freezing and I didn't even bring a jacket." Sora said as she walked out rubbing her arms to keep warm.
"Man. I was worried I'd catch a summer cold, but this is even worse!" Joe said as he looked outside.
"Wow!" Mimi gasped with a big smile as she came up beside Joe to look outside at the snow, then ran out herself, the blue haired boy following her.
"Why didn't I pack my fluffy pink snow boots?" Mimi asked.
Sitting up in the snow, Davey yelped when she felt something cold hit her back.
Turning to glare, she found TK laughing as he held a snowball in his hand.
He threw the second snowball at her, but she ducked down to avoid it and quickly made a snowball of her own to throw at the boy in green who was hit in the chest.
Tai saw this and laughed when he saw the kids having a small snowball fight.
Turning around, Davey slipped on the ice and landed on her rump.
"You okay?" Sora asked the girl as she walked over to help her up.
"I'm okay, I've had harder falls." Davey grinned at her.
Noticing a green light shining in the snow, the girl frowned and she looked up into the sky, stunned at what she saw.
"Hey, what's that?" She asked pointing up in the sky.
"What's what?" Sora asked before she then looked up at the sky and gasped.
"Wowie, look at the pretty lights!" TK smiled.
Up in the sky were green lights that shone down on the group of children who all exclaimed in awe at the sight, amazed by what they were seeing.
"Hey, what's his name? Izzy, come out here. You've gotta see this!" Tai called to the redhead who was still in the cabin on his laptop.
Soon, Izzy walked out of the cabin to see what everyone was staring at and he gasped in surprise at the sight of the lights that were up in the sky.
"It's beautiful. Magical even." Mimi grinned.
"Yeah, but what is it?" Izzy asked as he walked over.
"Maybe an aurora?" Sora questioned.
"You mean 'aurora borealis' the northern lights, but that's impossible. You see that in Alaska. We're way too far south." Izzy explained.
"Tell that to the snow." Sora frowned.
"I really think we all oughta get back inside before we all come down with ammonia." Joe exclaimed.
Lips quirking at that in amusement, Davey had no issue with that since she couldn't get sick.
"And miss this? The sky is, like, short circuiting." Matt said.
"Hey, what's that?" Tai asked as the lights began to swirl around.
Then, the green vortex in the sky began to rain down fire at the eight children.
"Do you think we need sunscreen?" Mimi asked making everyone give her strange looks.
Everyone stood their ground as the fireballs hit the ground, causing small explosions, debris and snow flying up all around them, some of the kids even dived to the ground to avoid getting hit by the fireballs.
After a few minutes, it was all over and everyone rose from their spots on the ground or lowered their arms from their heads to protect themselves from the blasts.
"Everyone, are you all right?" Sora asked the group after looking over Davey who was hiding behind her leg.
"We're still here." Matt said as he crouched down beside TK.
"That was scary!" Mimi said clutching her pink cowgirl hat.
"W-What was that?" Joe asked scared.
"Meteors?" Izzy suggested as he crawled over to one of the holes to search for the fireballs.
Just then, white lights shot up out of the holes, and there were devices inside the lights that slowly rose up in front of each child.
Tai was the first to grip one of the devices in his hands, so everyone else followed his example when they saw that it was safe to do so.
Once the white lights faded away, the kids all opened their hands to see that the devices were small and shaped a bit like a four pointed star, except the ends weren't sharp and were smooth, the device itself being light blue.
"Okay, so it's not meteors." Izzy mumbled.
"What…are these?" Sora asked.
"They look like Tamagachis to me." Davey muttered as she looked the device in her hand over.
"My guess is some sort of remote digital apparatus." Izzy said.
"No instructions?" Matt asked.
"Forget the instructions, surf's up!" Tai said pointing over to the cliff the eight were on and everyone yelled when a giant green wave shot up and then some sort of force scooped them all up into the wave.
"I knew I should have went to cheerleading caaaammmmmp!" Mimi yelled.
Everyone cried out as they were pulled through a portal, multiple colors and light shining around the group before it then faded to black as the children all passed out when their reality fell into darkness.
(Later...)
Moaning softly, Davey grinned when she felt the warm sun shining down on her face and she stretched out on the ground, almost purring as she worked out the kinks in her body.
"Davinia, it's time to wake up now!" A young male voice called.
"Am I saying that right?" The male asked.
"I'm not sure. You'll have to ask her." A young female voice spoke up shyly.
Ears twitching at the voices, Davey gave a mewing noise before she rubbed at her eyes and opened them to reveal the two figures who were standing in front of her.
Before her were two small blue creatures.
One of them appeared to be a baby dragon with a white face and stomach who had tiny paws and large scarlet eyes.
The second was a bobtail kitten who had a pink nose and large gold colored eyes.
Not bothered by the way the two blue creatures looked, Davey tilted her head to the side as she stared down at them.
"Hey there." She greeted.
"Um, hello." The blue kitten said shyly.
"Hi, Davinia. Did you enjoy your cat nap?" The blue dragon asked with a cheerful grin on his face.
Trying not to laugh at the irony of the question, Davey instead focussed on the important things.
"Wait, how did you know my name and who are you guys?" She asked them.
"I'm DemiVeemon!" The dragon chirped.
"A-And I'm Kitimon." The kitten said softly.
"And we know your name because we're your Digimon partners, Davinia!" DemiVeemon said.
"Just call me Davey, it's easier to say." She told them.
"Okay, Davey." DemiVeemon continued to grin while Kitimon gave a small smile.
"So, what do you guys mean that you guys are my partners? And what are Digimon?" Davey asked the blue duo.
Frowning at that, DemiVeemon placed a paw to his mouth as he thought over the question.
"Well, it's hard to explain." He said.
"We've always known we were your partners. We knew about it ever since we were born. We're not sure how to explain this, though." Kitimon told the girl.
"Okaaaay. Whatever." Davey shrugged as she stood up.
She saw that she still had her school bag with her and since it was warm, she pulled off her sweater to stuff it into her backpack for now.
"Hey, did you two see any hom-humans around here?" She asked them.
Sharing a look at that, Kitimon and DemiVeemon nodded, ignoring the way she stumbled over her words.
"We saw someone land over that way." Kitimon said.
"Great, let's go see." Davey said as she started walking off with the two Digimon.
The two creatures followed after the girl, following her off into the forest and Davey would sometimes place her hand on her head, checking for something.
"Um, Davey, what are you doing?" Kitimon asked after she saw the girl do it for a third time.
"Oh, I'm just making sure nothing is on my head." She flashed the kitten a grin.
DemiVeemon and Kitimon were both confused by this, but shrugged it off as they continued to follow after the girl who seemed to be sniffing at the air.
"Man, the air here smells so sweet. Where is this place anyway?" Davey asked.
She was enjoying how pure the air was and loved that there wasn't any taint from cars and chemical plants from any cities.
They must be far off from civilization if the air had zero impurities in it and the plants looked so lush and healthy.
"This is DigiWorld." DemiVeemon told her.
"DigiWorld?" Davey questioned.
"It's our home. There are no humans here, though. Only Digimon." Kitimon said.
"So... Does that mean we're not on Earth? Are you guys aliens, is that what this is? Because it's cool if you are. I won't judge ya." The girl told them.
"I-I don't... What is an alien? I don't know what that is." DemiVeemon appeared confused.
"And what is Earth?" Kitimon asked next.
"This is going to be a long story." Davey sighed.
Just then, the trio grew tense when they heard voices up ahead which made them pause in their steps.
"You guys heard that too, right?" The girl asked.
"Yes." Kitimon nodded.
"They're people up ahead. Let's go see!" DemiVeemon said as he scurried off ahead of the group.
"DemiVeemon, wait for us!" Kitimon called as she tried to keep up with him, but tripped over her large paws.
Walking over to the kitten, Davey scooped her up in her arms before she then chased after the dragon.
"Hey, who does that Digimon belong to?" Tai's voice was heard.
Jumping through the bushes, Davey then found herself standing in front of Tai, Sora, Izzy, Matt, TK and five other Digimon who were gathered with the humans.
The first one, Koromon, was a round pink head with red eyes and two floppy antenna.
The second, Motimon, looked like a pink blob that had brown eyes and arms.
The third, Yokomon, was a pink plant that had green eyes and a blue flower on its head while she had tiny tentcles for legs.
The fourth, Tokomon, looked like a white gunia pig with dark eyes and two antenna.
Lastly was Tsunomon who was a round orange head with a yellow face, red eyes and a black horn on its head.
"Hi guys." Davey chirped as she walked over to DemiVeemon.
"Wow, Davey, you have two of 'em?" TK asked her.
"Uh huh. This is Kitimon and DemiVeemon." She introduced the blue duo.
"Hi there." DemiVeemon grinned.
"H-Hello." Kitimon squeaked before ducking her head down.
Sora, Izzy and Tai all stared at the two blue Digimon curiously, wondering why Davey had two of them with her while the rest all had one.
Screaming was then heard making everyone jump as they turned to see Joe running off towards the group, distress written on his face.
There was a small dragon like creature that was gray, had a white stomach, blue eyes and a tuft of orange hair on top his head who was chasing after the frightened boy.
"Joe?" Tai gasped.
"Help me! This thing-This thing... It won't leave me alone." Joe whined.
"Hey, who're you calling a thing? I'm no stuffed animal. The name is Bukamon." The dragon said as he leaned on Joe's shoulder.
Spotting the dragon, Joe screamed making Bukamon laugh when the bluenette suddenly noticed that no one else was reacting to the strange creature.
"What's wrong with you guys? Don't you see this creature hanging off me? And those things down there?" Joe pointed at the other Digimon, then paused as he yelped and reeled back in shock.
"They-They're everywhere! What are they?" He asked.
"We're…" Bukamon trailed off as he floated over to the other In-Trainings.
"Digimon! Digital monsters!" The group of eight Digimon announced.
"Digital monsters?" Tai asked as the others stared at the Digimon, stunned.
"Yes, Digimon." The group smiled.
"We're not just digital monsters; we're much more than that. We're also kinda cute." Koromon said.
"And very loyal." Tsunomon blushed bashfully.
"With beautiful hair." Yokomon said as her antenna attached to the flower on her head seemed to curl.
"Or maybe no hair at all." Motimon smiled.
"And we can be funny. Ha!" Bukamon laughed.
"And adorable." Tokomon chirped.
"We're also tough." DemiVeemon grinned.
"A-And maybe bashful." Kitimon blushed as she hid behind DemiVeemon.
"It's a pleasure to meet each of you. My name's Tai and these are my friends from camp. I'd like you to meet Sora." Tai started the introductions.
"Nice place you have here, except for the bugs." Sora smiled with her hands folded behind her back.
"The self-proclaimed cool one over there is Matt." Tai joked.
"No autographs, please." Matt smiled with his hands in his pockets.
"This is Joe." Tai continued.
"I'd shake your hand…if you had any." Joe smiled politely.
"Izzy here is our computer expert." Tai said.
"Do you have any internet access?" Izzy asked.
"This kid here is Da-Davee-nee..." Tai tried to pronounce.
"I'm Davinia, but everyone calls me Davey. Nice to meet cha." Davey chirped, though she was annoyed with how difficult it was for Tai to say her name.
"And last but not least, this little guy is, uh…" Tai trailed off as he looked at the little boy, unsure of his name.
"TK. Call me TK, and I'm not as small as I look." He smiled.
"There now, is that everybody?" Tai asked as he glanced around the group.
"Hey, what happened to that girl with the funny pink hat?" Sora asked.
"Now, now. Her name is Mimi." Tai chided.
"Well, perhaps she's off picking flowers or on a nature walk." Izzy suggested.
"Ahh! Somebody please help me!" A familiar voice cried out.
Everyone then took off running towards the sound of the girl's screaming, worried about her and hoping nothing bad happened.
"Okay, so she's not picking flowers." Izzy muttered.
"Mimi! Where are you?" Tai called.
From around a thick line of trees, Mimi came running out with a green budlike Digimon following behind her.
The Digimon had a leaf on top her head, a beige face, four tiny paws and large brown eyes which were wide with fear.
"There she is." Sora said.
"It's okay, you don't have to be afraid." Tai smiled.
Just then, a huge red beetle flew out from around the trees making the group pause in horror at the sight of the Digimon.
"It's that big bug again!" Tai gasped.
Kuwagamon flew at the group making them all cover their heads with their arms for protection as the beetle then flew into the trees behind them.
"Mimi, are you all right?" The plant Digimon asked the girl clad in pink who was sitting on her knees.
"Think so." Mimi sighed.
"Don't worry. Tanemon's here to protect you." The Digimon comforted.
"It's okay now." Sora ran over and placed a hand on the girl's shoulder.
"Oh, Sora." Mimi looked at her with distress.
"Watch it, here he comes!" Tai announced as Kuwagamon flew over to them.
Everyone quickly started running away from the beetle that roared as it gave chase.
"Down!" Matt yelled as he pushed TK to the ground and everyone else dove to the floor.
Kuwagamon swooped over them, his claws close to grazing their backs.
"Will this nightmare never end? My mom is gonna want a complete and total refund!" Joe said.
"My Daddy isn't gonna be happy about this." Davey sighed.
"Here he comes again!" Yokomon warned.
"Okay, that does it. No more running away!" Tai glared as he clenched his fist.
"What else can we do?" Sora asked.
"She's right. There's no way we can fight that thing." Matt said.
"And not win anyway." Izzy added.
The group jumped onto their feet and started running off once again, panting as they rushed to escape from the dangerous monster.
As they broke through the trees, they all skidded to a stop and gasped when they saw what was in front of them.
They had been chased towards a cliff that was high up and jutted out over a raging river below.
"Great, anyone bring a helicopter?" Matt quipped.
"Be careful, Tai." Sora said as the goggle head walked closer and peered down the cliff for any ledges to climb down on.
Seeing none, he hung his head in defeat and then turned to the others.
"There's no way down. We're going to have to find another way." Tai announced.
"Another way where?" Sora asked.
Kuwagamon then burst through the tree line making the group scream as they ran towards the cliff and then ducked down to avoid being grabbed by the bug as he flew over them.
"Watch out, Tai!" Sora called as the brunette started running away from the beetle.
"Here I go!" Koromon jumped up and went over Tai's head, blasting Kuwagamon with his Acid Bubbles.
The attack had little effect as Kuwagamon flew upwards and Koromon cried out as he hit the ground.
"Not again." Tai said as Kuwagamon recovered and flew towards the group.
"Digimon attack!" Yokomon called as all the Digimon jumped up and spat out their Acid Bubbles at the larger creature.
It appeared that DemiVeemon and Kitimon were the only ones who couldn't spit out Acid Bubbles, instead they jumped up to use Hop Attack and Kitty Slap, but their attacks were weak against Kuwagamon.
All the Digimon hit the ground from Kuwwagamon slashing at them with his claws while the beetle crash landed in the trees behind them.
"Yokomon!" Sora called.
Worried over her two new friends, Davey rushed off towards them while Tai held Koromon in his arms and the rest of the humans soon ran over to tend to their own Digimon who had been hurt by the giant.
"Koromon, are you crazy? Why'd you do it?" Tai asked.
"Sorry. It's just… I'm trying to make a good impression." Koromon said sadly.
"Crazy guy." Tai commented.
"Kitimon, DemiVeemon! Are you guys okay? Nothing's broken is it?" Davey asked as she scooped the duo into her arms.
Opening their eyes, the blue duo looked up at the girl who's eyes now had rosey flecks in them and smelled angry at seeing them hurt.
"We'll be okay." DemiVeemon gave a tired grin.
"Sorry for making you worry." Kitimon whispered.
With that said, Davey hugged DemiVeemon and Kitimon to her chest.
"Oh, Yokomon." Sora said as she held her partner.
"Tanemon, talk to me." Mimi held Tanemon on her lap.
"They must be programed for courage." Izzy said worried as he held Motimon.
"Tokomon, what's wrong?" TK lifted Tokomon up.
"Hey, Tsunomon, wake up." Matt called as he held his partner.
"Bukamon, wake up." Joe called as he held the dragon.
Roaring was then heard as Kuwagamon burst from the forest making everyone gasp at the sight.
"Get back!" Matt yelled as everyone ran towards the cliff end where Tai was standing.
"I was hoping we'd seen the last of him." Sora said.
"Me too, but I guess he had other plans, huh?" Tai stared at the bug as it stepped closer, its pincers clamping together.
"Ugh, I knew I should have brought my bug spray." Matt groaned.
"Okay, get ready to run." Tai said.
"No, we fight." Koromon said surprising the children while the Digimon perked up.
"Huh?" Tai asked.
"That's right. It's the only way. Stand and fight." Koromon yelled.
"Give it up, will ya?" Tai told him.
"No, Koromon's right. It's time that we show what we're made of." Motimon tried to struggle out of Izzy's hands.
"No, don't." Izzy protested.
"They're right." Yokomon told Sora.
"No way. It's hopeless. You're no match for him, Yokomon." The orangette frowned.
"We can do it. Let me go, let me go, let me go! We can do it!" Tsunomon tried to escape Matt's grip while Tokomon growled and TK struggled to hold him back.
"Guys, do you wanna fight, too?" Davey asked Kitimon and DemiVeemon as she glanced between the two Digimon in her arms.
"I'm not giving up now." DemiVeemon stated.
"We have to fight to protect you." Kitimon insisted shocking the girl.
"Let me go, let me, let me go!" Bukamon tried to flap his flippers to escape as Joe held him around the chest.
"Tanemon, you too?" Mimi asked.
"Uh huh." Tanemon nodded.
"I'm sorry, Tai. Let's go!" Koromon called as all the Digimon jumped out of their partners' arms.
All of them ran or bounced towards Kuwagamon, every one of them determined to protect their new friends from Earth.
"Come on, Digimon!" Koromon called.
"It's useless! Yokomon!" Sora yelled.
"Don't go, Motimon!" Izzy called.
"No, wait! Don't do it, Tsunomon!" Matt called after him.
"Don't go!" TK called at Tokomon.
"Turn around! Come back, Bukamon!" Joe yelled.
"Tanemon, be careful!" Mimi called.
"DemiVeemon, Kitimon, good luck!" Davey cried.
"No, don't, Koromon! Come back!" Tai screamed as he ran after him.
As the other humans stepped forward to run after their Digimon, their devices all glowed and started to beep as the sky turned dark and thunder rumbled as rainbow colored lights shot down from above.
The lights all fell down on the nine Digimon making everyone gasp and stare in awe as the little monsters started to glow and grow taller.
"Koromon Digivolve too… AGUMON!"
Agumon was a yellow-orange lizard with emerald green eyes and a short tail.
"Yokomon Digivolve too… BIYOMON!"
Biyomon was a pink bird with pink claws, a red beak and had blue eyes while she had a pink and blue antenna/feather on top of her head and had blue markings on her head while her right ankle had a silver cuff.
"Motimon Digivolve too... TENTOMON!"
Tentomon was a burgundy red beetle with large green eyes, yellow antenna, black spots and had a green chest.
"Tsunomon Digivolve too… GABUMON!"
Gabumon was a yellow lizard with a bit of a canine appearance with the blue stripped fur he wore, red eyes, a golden horn on his head, floppy ears and his stomach had blue and pink markings.
"Tokomon Digivolve too… PATAMON!"
Patamon was a small orange creature with tiny legs and the bottom half of his body was yellow, his eyes were blue and he had wings for ears.
"Bukamon Digivolve too… GOMAMON!"
Gomamon was a white seal with floppy ears, an orange mane of hair, green eyes and purple markings on his body.
"Tanemon Digivolve too… PALMON!"
Palmon was a green lizard/plant hybrid with a magenta and yellow flower on her head and she had dark green eyes.
"DemiVeemon Digivolve too... VEEMON!"
Veemon was a two foot tall, bipedal dragon who had red eyes, a white mouth and stomach, and had a yellow V on his forehead while there were yellow triangles under his eyes.
"Kitimon Digivolve too... CATMON!"
Catmon was a white cat who had yellow eyes, wore blue gloves that had three black claws and yellow markings on it, had a gold ring on her long tail and she had a crescent moon mark on her forehead.
All the lights faded to reveal the newly evolved Digimon as everyone stared in awe at the transformations.
"What in the-? Look at them. What's happened to the little guys?" Sora asked.
"They're...bigger." Tai said.
One by one, all the Digimon jumped up at Kuwagamon, but he back handed them to the ground.
"All right then, you asked for it." Agumon growled.
As Kuwagamon started to fly into the air, Palmon used her Poison Ivy to drag him to the ground.
Patamon then used his Boom Bubble, blasting air at Kuwagamon.
Jumping up together, Veemon used Vee Punch and Catmon used Kitty Pummel, both Digimon punching Kuwagamon with great force that made him stumble back.
After the dragon and cat jumped out of the way, Tentomon flew in and used his Super Shocker, electrocuting Kuwagamon.
Bending on one knee, Kuwagamon was then tripped onto both when Gomamon rolled under his legs, knocking him down.
"Stand back everyone." Agumon warned as he used Pepper Breath.
Gabumon used Blue Blaster and Biyomon took to the air to use Spiral Twister, the attacks creating flames on Kuwagamon's head as he roared in pain.
"Now, all together!" Agumon ordered as the Digimon released their attacks.
They hit Kuwagamon in the chest and flames erupted making the beetle screech out in pain as he stumbled back and fell into the forest, defeated.
Everyone was silent as they stared at the Digimon in awe.
"They made vapourware out of him." Izzy said.
"Amazing." Tai breathed.
"That was awesome!" Davey cheered loudly, throwing her arms up in her excitement.
Matt could have sworn he saw something white on the girl's head, but when he turned to look, nothing was there.
Was he starting to hallucinate now?
"Tai, I told you we could do it!" Agumon giggled as Tai laughed and caught the dinosaur in a hug.
"Koromon! Or Agumon. Whoever you are, you did it, you did it!" Tai cheered.
Everyone laughed as they celebrated, though Matt appeared to be startled by Gabumon's attention and Joe fixed his glasses as he stared down at Gomamon.
"How about that Super Shocker? Pretty wizard, huh?" Tentomon joked as Izzy gave him a thumb's up.
Davey was tackled into a hug by Veemon and Catmon, not bothered by the extra weight the duo had put on, and laughed as she hugged them.
Just then, Kuwagamon burst out of the forest yet again making everyone gasp as they turned to face the beetle who appeared to be even more angry than before.
"Watch out!" Sora yelled.
"Guess we celebrated too soon." Tai said.
Kuwagamon then stabbed his pincers into the ground, cracks appearing and the cliff broke, everyone standing on it crying out as they were sent plummeting into the ocean below them.
