(Fanfare)
AND HERE IT IS… THE FIFTHIETH STORY BY REDDRAGONFORCE 1!
RDF1: (bows) Thank you, thank you! I know I've had other stories before this, but since I've taken a few off before we reached fifty, this is officially fifty now!
(Applause)
Dx: I'm so proud! (Sheds a tear) And I've been there this entire time! GO ME! (Cheers in joy)
Jenny: (smacks her head in disgust) Why me…?
LR: Hey, at least you've been around longer than me. Seriously, I'm 'technically' still the newbie on here.
RDF1: Don't worry, I'm probably gonna get another OC eventually. It's only a matter of time. I mean, when I got you, I moved Jenny up, alongside a few others (Namely unused dragons in my mental dragon realm).
So, anyways, I hear you want Takato to time travel and relive his journey. This is gonna be tough, because it'll be more in depth and slightly more off track than Davis's journey. Davis just had the Power of Miracles, which is awesome in and of itself; however, it just doesn't match up against Takato's Hazard Power. The Power of Miracles can change the tide of battle when things are at their worse, but the Power of the Hazard is something SO dangerous, only someone like Takato can keep it at bay and possibly even use it for the benefit of others, instead of their detriment. That's why, personally, I like Takato better than Davis, because of this very reason. Sure, Davis is underutilized and hated on for little-to-no reason, but even THEN his fans actually try to overplay him and nearly turn him into Gary Stu, which gets NO points with the crowd. With Takato, he has so much responsibility, and that's just with the canon story we're seeing, not including all our head canons, fan theories, etc. to make him even more relatable. I've read enough fanfic on both to know that those that write for Takato keep a slightly better balance, if only because he has so much to do canon-wise that fanfic writers don't seem to add as much by comparison.
So yeah, I'm not dissing Davis in any way. If my Time Travel Story doesn't prove that to you, then you're WAY too stingy on ANY level. So, let's get going: Davis is great, Takato is even better!
RDF1: THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP IN GETTING ME THUS FAR TO THIS POINT!
Reviews thus far: 598!
Can we get over 700 during the course of this fanfic? [I hope we can! ;)]
Once again, thanks for all your support, and don't worry: I still got two more chapters left for my W.I.T.C.H. Gx story. After that, it's a new story with Treasure Planet (a personal guilty pleasure movie) and then Avengers (starring Gohan like you've never seen him before, and I don't mean his time travel version I already wrote).
I do believe that's enough, Disclaimer, do your thing!

(Story Begin)
(Chapter Begin)
In a small bedroom in a house that laid above a bakery in a large City of a small country, there lay a boy in bed, tossing and turning, sweat dripping down his forehead. He was having a nightmare, one that came alongside a fever, or so he thought. His parents, who were the owners of the bakery downstairs, were fraught with worry for their son, as he had been like this for a few days now. They didn't know the cause of it, nor would they know for a long time yet.
"This is his third day like this," said Yoshie, "I don't know what we're going to do, Takehiro."
"Takato is strong, Yoshie," replied Takehiro, "He'll pull through. We've done everything we can. Now, we just have to wait."
(AN1)
Takato himself wasn't faring any better. He looked like he had just been through battle, and it whooped him in the process. He was exhausted and battered and bruised and he couldn't remember why.
"What's going on here? Where am I?" asked Takato.
"You're here, with me, boy!" said a dark, ominous voice.
'Oh no, you have GOT to be kidding me,' thought Takato, dread filling his being as he turned to see that LAST mon he ever wanted to see again: Megidramon.
"Megidramon! What are you doing here!?" demanded Takato, even in his current state, he wasn't gonna show fear to this negative force within him.
"Same as you, waiting to reach our destination," replied Megidramon, "After all, that is what one does when time traveling."
"Time travel!?" exclaimed Takato, "I thought we were done with all that!"
"Oh, we are, or were, but that was a separate matter. Now, we have a whole new dilemma before us: reliving the past," replied Megidramon, "And right now, your younger body is trying to handle my power being infused with it at a younger age than it should have ever been infused with."
"You gotta be kidding," said Takato, "I thought I always had your power. I mean I DID create Guilmon, your reincarnation. The Hazard Power was only fully released once before the Golden Digivice given to us by Goldramon allowed me to use your power safely with Guilmon as Gallantmon."
"You're not lying, for that is true. I have resided here since you were born. I have already merged with my past self rather easily; given my powers of Hazard has the potential to distort time anyways; however, that is not the same with you. I may have always resided in here, but that does not mean you have always held my power. It was awakened when your imagination combined with your D-Power focused all my power into the Data of Guilmon. Since the time travel has occurred, your younger body is absorbing my power without Guilmon here to divert and purify it. If nothing is done (and I wouldn't care if it wasn't), then my power will consume you, leaving me with full control."
"Well, it's a good thing Takatomon will always have me," said a new voice. Everyone turned to see Guilmon walk up, "Takato and I are one. We can never be separated permanently, and that's why together, Takato and I will succeed in holding back your power until it's time."
"Guilmon, it's good to see you, but what's going on?" asked Takato.
"I'm not entirely sure myself," said Guilmon, his eyes going feral, "But you're younger self is almost done absorbing what power has already leaked through. I will stay here with Megidramon until such time as you receive your Digivice. I will see you soon, Takatomon."
"Thanks Guilmon," said Takato, teary eyed as he hugged his best digital friend, before heading out and waking up in the real world.
(AN2)
Takato didn't waste too much time in waking up, his fever broken, and his parents gasping, before sighing with relief.
"TAKATO!" shouted Yoshie, hugging him, "I'm so glad your awake!"
"I'm sorry for worrying you, Mom," replied Takato, before finding his airways closing in on itself, "Can you… let go… I still need… to breathe!"
"Oh, sorry," replied Yoshie, releasing her son, "But don't push yourself. You're staying in bed until tomorrow. No questions."
"Yes ma'am," replied Takato, in his obedient voice.
(AN3)
And with that, they left Takato to get some more rest. Takato sighed; there was no explaining this to them. He was in his childhood body in the past and the Hazard activated earlier than usual, leaving him in a big predicament. Bigger still was that he didn't know what happened with his friends. The last thing he remembered was going into battle with his friends, all of them. Rika and Henry beside him battling the strongest of them.
'What happened in that battle?' wondered Takato, before drifting off to sleep at last.
Takato healed quickly, since Guilmon was there, even if he was in his mind for the time being. As the days passed Takato got back into his normal routine, at least his younger self's routine; however, this time Takato upgraded his deck for a more competitive build. With his future knowledge, and future battles, he knew exactly which cards he needed to make his deck tournament ready. The strategies were slightly different with the turn-based strategy card game than real time/real life fighting, but he was able to build his deck with great success. Battling Kazu and Kenta wasn't the same anymore, since he knew all their strategies inside and out, and with his new deck, was able to win nearly every match against them.
Takato eventually started dueling other people at a nearby shop, with similar success, and was able to sign up for the local tournament. With about a year to spare before becoming a tamer, Takato decided to refocus his life on his studies, at least to the point of making the grade. Beyond that, his artistic talent increased as well and he drew when he had a free day not dueling or doing homework. As the tournament day arrived, he was confident that he could win.
And win he did. With only one loss in the round-robin style tournament, he won first place and got a rare card that actually helped his deck out. It was a VenomMyotismon, super rare, and it fit in with his virus deck. With the Shop Tournament victory, he was able to register for the upcoming City Tournament in five months. This would be important, as he would meet Ryo and Rika there, the Digimon King and Queen. If nothing else, he could give them a run for their money, but defeating them was a big challenge, even knowing some of Rika's strategy.
Megidramon wasn't as bad as Takato thought he was at first. He was evil to be sure, but he liked being more of a chaotic type than a villain type, as he just liked to destroy things, and his new victory streak could be seen as destroying his 'opponents', which satisfied the Digital Hazard for now.
(AN4)
In the face of this 'new' Takato, even Kazu and Kenta were able to eventually step up their game, at least a little bit. They were able to fine-tune their decks to be more balanced; yet they wouldn't be able to take any tournament placements. Takato was happy that they took the game more seriously, which would eventually cross over into the real thing, which he excelled at. Despite being one of the worst card players last time, he was able to perform original combos never thought possible, and some actually WERE impossible, to perform in the game. Takato soon became very well known as the new rising rookie star in the city. By the time the tournament came around, he was in the top 10 expected to either win, or place.
The City Tournament wasn't like anything he expected. Having never been to tournaments in his past life, it wasn't unexpected to feel nervous for his first Tournament. Luckily it was a Saturday that he had school off, otherwise his parents would go ballistic over him skipping school, despite actually improving his grades over the past year. As he got ready for the elimination-style tournament where 64 of the best players gathered every year to see who's the best, he smiled at the new level of competition before him.
(AN5)
As the day passed, Takato felt less nervous, focusing on his gameplay strategies and backups as necessary. He even pulled off a new combo he hadn't yet done in the quarterfinal round. When he looked up at who was facing whom, it was him and Rika, while Ryo faced another player that Takato recognized from the high school he eventually attended.
"Well, well, Takato Matsuki," greeted Rika, "I hear you've improved your game recently. I hope to have a challenge from someone people have voted into the top 10 favorites to place in this tournament."
"And you're Rika Nonaka, Rumiko's daughter," replied Takato, getting a frown out of Rika. He smoothly transitioned into another statement that got Rika smirking, "But I hear more from the players than the covers. Are what they said true?"
"You're about to find out," smirked Rika, this kid was something else. She would have fun playing against this kid.
Battling Rika, even knowing her strategies, wasn't easy. A few gutsy moves early on gave him the first victory, but that only served to get Rika more focused. Takato played hard, but couldn't match up to Rika on the second go around. The third and final round was pushing both of them to their limits. Takato finally managed to call out VenomMyotismon to the field and deal a decisive blow to Rika, but she was able to survive and make a counter attack that defeated Takato and gave Rika the overall victory.
"Great Job, Rika," said Takato, shaking Rika's hand in respect, "Good luck against Ryo."
"Thanks," replied Rika, "Not that I need it."
Unfortunately, Rika wasn't able to beat Ryo. In a two-one victory, Ryo was declared the winner and official Digimon King. Rika, being the top female duelist, was crowned the Digimon Queen, a title she had mixed feelings about, given Ryo's current attitude.
Takato was given third place for his one victory over Rika, since Ryo swept the other person in a 2-0 set, and was named the Digimon Knight. Takato didn't mind, as he was considered the third best duelist in the City, as least for now.
(AN6)
Not one week after the tournament, people across the city came to duel him or congratulate him on his third place victory, which was an accomplishment in and of itself. As the days passed by, Takato fell into a new routine, go to school, head to the card shop or home for homework, followed by hanging out the park with Kazu and Kenta with maybe dueling once every other day, and finally returning home to finish whatever homework was left followed by supper and bed. It worked for a while, but he was next to unbeatable, never losing two games in a set to anyone, which kinda depressed him. After the City tournament, the competition just seemed to be less than before. Upon hearing that an open tournament was being held in a few months got him hopeful. Maybe he'd see Rika or Ryo there, finally having that rematch, or first match in Ryo's case, and maybe pulling off a win against his best competition. So, time passed and the open tournament came about… with similar results. Ryo, he figured out, had already left to the Digital World to deal with Millenniummon with Ken, leaving him and Rika to be each other's main competition, which didn't surprise him when he and Rika were in the final match.
"It's been awhile, Rika, how have you been?" asked Takato, slightly more forward this time.
"Bored. If you don't give me a good match again, Matsuki, I WILL make you pay," replied Rika, sounding a bit grumpy, but Takato concluded it was because Ryo wasn't here. She wanted her rematch for Goldramon's sake.
"Well, how's about a wager?" proposed Takato, deciding to do what he did in their last match and make an early gutsy move to see if it paid off, "If I win, you'll go out to dinner with me, my treat. If you win, I'll give you one of my rarest cards that can suit your deck. Sound good?"
This got Rika's attention, it wasn't uncommon for boys of various ages older than her (some REALLY creepy) to try and ask her out (some of the older ones recognizing her from her mother), only to be met with her right hook, but coming from Takato it sounded friendly, actually nice by comparison. It didn't help that she had built up her image as the Digimon Ice Queen over the past few months since the City Tournament. She smirked and they shook on it, neither of them determined to lose.
(Time Change)
Unfortunately, Takato couldn't pull a win; fortunately he planned for this wager months in advance when he got a Secret Rare Taomon in a lucky booster pack he picked up shortly after the City Tournament.
"Better luck next time, Matsuki," said Rika, giving him less of a smirk, and more of a smile, before walking off.
Little did either of them know, things between them would change, especially for Rika, as she was about to receive a visitor from another world.
Time marched on and his routine didn't change, however, one morning Kazu decided to challenge him before school. He figure, 'what the heck', and agreed. As the duel progress, he felt a nagging tingling sensation of Déjà vu as his Dark Tyrannomon took a big hit from Maildramon before drawing the one card he needed to end the duel. It was MetalTyrannomon, which meant in the space between the Real and Digital World right now, Calumon was about to enter into the real world. He smirked at the thought of an old friend returning.
"I Digivolve DarkTyrannomon into METALTYRANNOMON and finish this with a Nuclear Laser!" declared Takato, as he finished off Kazu.
"Oh man, how did you pull that off!? I thought I had you there," replied Kazu, before putting away his cards in his box they kept there.
"Sometimes lady luck is just on my side," finished Takato, as he shuffled his deck before placing it back in his box as well. It was then he noticed, off to the side where his cards were a bit messier, there it was: The Blue Card, the one that proved the bond between Tamer and Digimon.
"Hey, Kazu, go on ahead so you won't be late. Ms. Asaji won't be so forgiving this time since it's your fifth one this year," informed Takato, being careful to keep this card hidden.
Kazu nodded, agreeing with him on Ms. Asaji. The woman was a great teacher and all, but she could be a bit harsh. It's not their fault that traffic builds up just before school started.
After Kazu left, Takato pulled out the Blue Card and scanned it through his reader. Like before, it changed into his now Red Digivice. He placed it back in the box for now as he headed to school, barely getting there as the bell rang. Luckily, Ms. Asaji let it slide since it was only the first time, and he was technically within eyesight by the time the bell rang. So, class continued as usual and Takato pulled out his notebook and started copying the notes on the information he already knew and the day progress as normal.
After School, he went by the park to grab his card box and headed home as quickly as possible, as to avoid unnecessary trouble and be ready for the next step in Guilmon 're-creation'. After helping out his parents in the bakery for a few hours, he went upstairs to clean up for supper as well as set up his Digivice to scan Guilmon's data that he finished up the day before. Once supper was done, he held onto the Digivice as he fell asleep, ready to see Renamon again, as he missed her, even if she could still catch him off guard half the time.
After the tournament with Takato, Rika returned home, feeling only somewhat satisfied. Her skills in the card game were nearing their peak, and she needed a new challenge. Luckily, or unluckily, she got it in spades. Soon after supper, as she was getting ready for bed, three screens appeared before her, showing her Digimon of all varieties and levels, wanting her to become their partner. This startled Rika, but a figure appeared in the distance and she seemed familiar to Rika. Rika was suddenly given an onslaught of memories, as her future self had finally arrived in the past and now merged with her past self. Once Rika regained her bearings, she took one look at the Digimon before her.
"I don't need weaklings who rely on others for power alone. I can only accept one who can stand on their own in battle," she said, suddenly calmer than she had been a few seconds beforehand.
The Digimon tried to convince her that they fitted that description, but a voice caught their attention, and their fear.
"Don't even attempt to lie in front of the Digimon Queen. She can see through deception. Besides, only one here is worthy of her," said Renamon as she walked forward, the others parting as she approached, "So, your majesty, do you accept me as your 'partner'."
Rika listened to her choice of words and knew their meaning, as Renamon meant 'equal' in place of 'partner'.
"The Queen has spoken," smirked Rika, "Renamon is my partner. Now, be gone weaklings before I have her load your data."
After Renamon entered the Real World the screens vanished and Rika and Renamon were finally alone. Renamon and Rika's eyes suddenly softened a bit as they saw each other again.
"Renamon!" exclaimed Rika, hugging her best Digital Friend, "I'm so glad your alright!"
"I'm fine Rika," replied Renamon, "More to the point, so are you. It seems our last battle alongside Takato and Henry didn't go so well."
"More like 'not had an ending'," countered Rika, "I can't even remember who we faced."
"That's not important right now. We're back home safe and sound," said Renamon, "Even though we have some repeat events to participate in."
"We'll be fine. Jumping back in time must have made my memories clearer, because it won't be long before Gogglehead gets Dino Boy," said Rika, smiling at the prospect of seeing Takato again, "Well, we've got a couple weeks, so let's get started on making things happen."
Renamon disappeared as Rika finished getting ready for bed. She had a lot to do, and little time to do so. She knew this would change history, but she didn't care. She only wanted one thing right now, and that was someone with a pair of Goggles.
(AN7)
After a few weeks, Rika's mother finally returned after finishing her fifth Photo Shoot of the month, and was ready for a break, maybe even spending some time with her daughter. Her job didn't leave her much time to raise Rika, but her mother was able to help out and she was never more grateful for it. She couldn't get much farther than the front door when Rika walked up, wearing her usual outfit and her School Uniform in her hands.
"Mom, we need to talk," said Rika, "about school."
This got Rumiko's attention. If Rika actually approached about something, let alone this, then she was serious about it.
"Well," said Rumiko, "Let me change into some more comfortable clothes and we'll talk about school."
Rika smiled inwardly, it was a victory to be sure. Now the hard part, convincing her mom to transfer her to Public School, particularly Takato's, and with some hope and a bit of luck, she can convince her mom that she would have more friends this way.
It took some doing, but Rika manage to convince her mother to transfer her to a public school; and after promising that her grades won't slip, but also be able to make some friends, Rumiko relented. She was concerned for her daughter, but she knew that Rika wasn't making any friends at her current school, despite her hopes otherwise. She contacted the school the next day and arranged for Rika to be transferred to public school, Takato's current school to be precise.
Takato soon found himself in a familiar position, despite it only happening once. He looked down to see fog clearing just enough for him to see Rika in her overcoat over her usual outfit (with sunglasses) staring at a fiery lion known as Lynxmon. Takato almost felt sorry for the Armor Digimon. Rika took off her glasses and moved aside as Renamon came into view.
"Renamon, walk all over him," said Rika, her usual indifference showing.
"With pleasure," replied Renamon, barely managing to keep emotion out of the reply, since Renamon were known to not shown that much emotion outside their village.
Renamon started to walk forward, only to be talked by Lynxmon. Rika wasn't worried though, given her newfound knowledge and experience. Having knowledge of Takato's information that he was here, even if she couldn't see him, she decided to remind him why SHE was Digimon Queen.
"Renamon, enough games," said Rika, pulling out a card, "Digi-Modify! Speed Activate!"
Renamon's movements became a blur as she escaped Lynxmon's hold. She reappeared in the sky in front of Takato. Sensing him, she gave his position a quick glance, also noticing Guilmon's presence, before refocusing on the battle at hand. She closed her eyes and launched a flawless Diamond Storm, destroying Lynxmon and downloading the Armor Digimon's data.
"Not bad," said Rika, "Soon you will be unstoppable."
'I hope we can convince Rika not to attack us constantly,' thought Takato.
'Don't worry, Takato,' replied Guilmon, 'I'm sure we can "convince" them of our strength soon enough.'
Soon, the fog came back, obscuring Takato's sight.
(AN8)
Takato woke up the next morning feeling restless. Guilmon was going to hatch soon and he needed to find his entry point before anyone else does, especially Rika.
Getting ready and heading out to meet his friends, he stopped and looked at the towers in the distance, knowing Yamaki was there and still not liking Digimon at this point in time. Since it was Saturday with no school and Takato didn't need to help out in the bakery until the afternoon, he headed out to meet Kazu and Kenta; and 'meet' meaning trashing them in five games each. After they got a bit grumpy and left, Takato took out his Digivice and goggles from his backpack, before setting his box of cards in their place. It was time to welcome Guilmon into the Real World again, and he wanted to look the part. Heading out, he noticed the Data stream that erupted forth like a fountain and wondered why more people weren't noticing it.
'Guess that's city life for ya,' thought Takato, as he continued to make his way to Guilmon's location.
Meanwhile, in another part of town, the Wong siblings were spending time together, meaning Suzie was 'playing' with Terriermon while Henry worked on the computer, when Suzie noticed the light show out the window.
"Hey Henry," said Suzie, "what's that?"
"I don't know, but let's let the proper authorities handle it," replied Henry, while in his mind he was going nuts, 'Guilmon is here ALREADY! I just got acclimated to this point in time a few days ago. I am nowhere NEAR ready to face Takato, especially after what happened in that battle.'
'The Hazard has awoken folks,' thought Terriermon, since he couldn't speak in front of Suzie for now, 'But Momentai, a goggle-headed hero will save us. Huh? sounds lame. Needs a better title, doesn't it?'
(AN9)
Meanwhile, Rika was leaning against the wall under the overpass, listening to some of her favorite music when she felt it. She looked up to see Guilmon's portal opening, despite being the only one noticing it.
'Renamon, guess who's joined the party,' thought Rika.
'Indeed,' replied Renamon mentally, 'It'll be good to see the bread obsessed dino again.'
'Let's go,' finished Rika as Renamon vanished the two of them away.
Meanwhile, Takato had a time of it getting to Guilmon's emergence point. Why Guilmon decided this far out of the way would forever be beyond him. When he got there, smoke emerged just as Guilmon finally crossed into the Real World.
Guilmon took note of his surroundings: location the same; number of rats: two extra, better fix that; Human in the vicinity: Takato. Everything was in place. He charged up his first Pyro Sphere and destroyed the two rats that were in front of him, thus making things normal again.
"Guilmon…?" wondered Takato.
"TAKATOMON!" cheered Guilmon, running over and glomping Takato, knocking him down, "Can we invent Guilmon bread now instead of later?"
'Same ol' Guilmon,' chuckled Takato, "How many times will it take for you to stop calling me 'Takatomon'?"
'Not anytime soon,' came Megidramon's voice from inside Takato's head, 'since I reside in you, you are essentially part Digimon. Guilmon just represents your Digimon-half. That's why your so powerful as Gallantmon.'
(AN10)
"Did you hear that, Guilmon?" asked Takato.
'Yep, because we are connected, Biomerging just made the connection stronger. Megidramon is apart of us, so there's nothing we can do. It's just something to get used to,' replied Guilmon, mentally.
'Just great,' deadpanned Takato, 'I got two voices in my head now and I'm also part Digimon. What else is new?'
'Your attempts at getting Rika to be your mate early is very amusing,' informed Megidramon, 'though, you might just want to be blunt next time and ask her out.'
'I'll make sure you feel the hit as well,' smirked Takato, knowing that Rika wouldn't hold back just because their sort-of friends in this world. Rika always knew how to defend herself.
But, all in all, Takato was happy now. Guilmon was now with him physically, he'll meet up with Rika and Henry soon and then they can truly start their next adventure together.
(Chapter End)
Well that didn't take THAT long. I know this is short, but it's just something to start out with. Expect this to be taken less, yet more seriously than Davis's Time Travel fic. Why? Because Takato's not alone. Rika and Henry are here, and expect MANY situations to be FAR more frivolous, and other situations being taken with far less 'playing around' as the canon episodes would have. It suffers from DBZ syndrome a bit because of it. Oh well, HERE'S TO AN EXCELLENT START OF MY FIFIETH FANFIC!
Don't forget to review, fav, and follow; you know, the works with this fic. I will be updating this fic hopefully more often than my last.
A few more things to cover: Not unlike before, Takato, Rika, and Henry(not sure about Henry considering I haven't had confirmation of him being in the special) have come from a time after the big crossover battle special of Digimon Fusion (Xros Wars in Japan). So, expect some key differences here. First off, Rika being in Takato's school: Not entirely original, as this idea HAS been done before. In fact, most of the Ideas I'm using I don't solely own… I just agree with some of the ideas I'm using.
Now, onto Author Notes…
AN1: Going with their Wikia names. If this is wrong, let me know so I can correct this early!
AN2: This scene really is no different than a few other scenes from other fics I've written that basically explains the differences in events occurring at a different time than when it was supposed to. Seriously, if you still don't know what I'm talking about… Doctor Who. Just, Doctor Who!
AN3: Obedient voice: something every Male needs to survive mothers, possibly sisters, and girlfriends. Seriously, it's a survival mechanism.
AN4: I don't know the first thing about the card game. That being said… I'd like to think Megidramon is the type of Digimon that just likes destruction and mayhem. Yeah, that's bad and should be stopped, but can you blame him? Seriously, some of us just want to vent our frustrations out physically, without repercussions as a preference. That being said, Megidramon enjoys it when Takato has an overwhelming victory. It's not the same, but it's still fun, for him anyways.
AN5: SERIOUSLY DON'T KNOW THE FIRST THING ABOUT THE DIGIMON CARD GAME! If anyone wants to work out some gameplay of their own for this tournament, go ahead and write it out. Send it to me and if I like it, I might just add it as a deleted scene or something later down the line.
AN6: Again, another idea that's not originally mine. I just like the idea. That and the fact that Takato basically IS a Knight, even if it's of the Hazard, it's still pretty cool!
AN7: Yes, Rika is also back in time, as if you couldn't already guess before reading this ending part. Also, this IS a Rukato; not will be, IS! So, anyone NOT liking Rukato should not continue reading this fanfic. I appreciate you taking the time to check it out, but if your gonna be negative about a pairing, then don't read stories about them!
AN8: Takato doesn't yet know about Rika being back in time yet. But he will, then Rukato will start!
AN9: A fourth wall break already? TERRIERMON! YOU WON'T MOMENTAI YOUR WAY OUT OF THIS! (chases after Terriermon)
Dx: By the way, Henry is also back in time. This should be fun, and funny as well!
AN10: What? Are you saying it doesn't make sense? Seriously, having Megidramon, the FREAKIN' Digimon of Hazard apart of your very being and NOT being Half Digimon is like saying Naruto isn't part Demon for using Kyuubi's Chakra as a Four-Tailed or an Eight-Tailed. Seriously, it's no different than being a Jinchuuriki. Also, that IS what I'm comparing Takato to. I know he ISN'T Naruto, but come on, you can't NOT make the comparison, given certain circumstances and what you're comparing.
ANYWAYS, I think that's it for now.
Jenny: Stay tuned as my final chapters of my first story comes to a conclusion that will take you a while to read through both, let alone understand!
LR: And don't forget to read MY part in the upcoming duel…! (RDF1 slaps hand over LR to prevent him from completing his sentence)
RDF1: Stop spoiling, ALL of you! I know you wanted to add something DragonX.
Dx: Well, that leaves me to say: SEE YA NEXT TIME!
Later,
RDF1
