Assistant: Hello, my name is Renamon's assistant and I hope you would you enjoy my first fan fiction.

Aren't you going to introduce me?

Assistant: Oh yes, and this is my personal digimon partner Ronomon, who will be playing a significant part in this story."

Ronomon: Aren't you forgetting one more thing?

Assistant: You're right. I forgot about the disclaimer. I don't own digimon or the two shows where I get my concepts of alchemy and elemental bending. Those two shows are Full Metal Alchemist and Avatar, The Last Air Bender. Now did I forget anything else?

Ronomon: Nope, I think you got it covered.

Assistant: Great! Then I am proud to present our feature presentation.

Reverse Biomerge

Chapter 1

A brother returns

It had been about a month since the D-Reaper incident and the Digital World was getting back to normal. With the help of the Sovereign the process went smoothly, but not all the digimon were happy how thing were going. A small group of different digimon wandered the world looking for a gateway to the real world. This group consisted of a Guilmon, Terriermon, Renamon, Cyberdramon, Lopmon, Marineangemon, Guardromon, Impmon, Calumon, and the newly resurrected Leomon. They had searched the entire digital world by now, and still had not found a new portal. They decided to make camp for the night near where they and their tamers originally arrived in the digital world.

"How hard can it be to find on measly portal," Renamon said as Leomon came to get her for her shift as look out.

"Keep it down, the others are asleep and they have the right to be, we've been running ourselves ragged for a month now trying to find a portal to the real world." Leomon responded as he sat down near the small campfire that everyone was encircled around.

"Your right, but I miss Rika, and I know the others miss their tamers just as much if not more."

"Think how I must feel, Jeri thinks that I dead, I will have a lot of explaining to do if we ever are able to return to the real world."

"She did take the whole thing really hard, but I am worried about Rika and the others. What if they start to forget about us?"

"Now don't talk like that", Leomon said, "We have changed their lives, hopefully for the better, and you don't forget about that in lifetime, let alone 1 month."

"Leomon, you have a way with words. All right, I'll go to the lookout point. Goodnight Leomon."

"Good night Renamon." Leomon said as he saw the yellow fox digimon jump on top of the nearby rock spire and start looking around.

Renamon was cool and focused, every sound be it the gentle blow of the wind or Terriermon's snoring was picked up by her ears. She was listening for anything out of the ordinary, her eyes scanning the horizon for that same hint of something being out of place. Suddenly she heard a rustle behind her. With one quick motion she spun around and got into a fighting stance, ready for anything, but when she look there was nothing there. Not even a footprint or disturbed rock.

"Hmmm, It must have been the wind," Renamon said and returned to her duties, but then she heard the sound again, this time loader, and closer. Again she spun around, but yet again she found nothing out of place. This continued for a few minutes. Renamon's patience was running short. She knew someone was messing with her and she hated to admit it, but they were doing a great job. She heard the rustle again for about the twentieth time, but decided to ignore it. She then heard a sound she hadn't heard in the past few minutes. It was the sound of a sword being drawn from it's sheathe. This caused her to turn around, but this time instead of seeing nothing she turned and found she was looking down the end of a samurai style sword, being held by a figure shrouded in a cloak. Renamon's mind caught up with her body and she lunged backwards putting a little distance between here and this mysterious swordsman.

"Renamon, my dear, your senses have sharpened since I last saw you, but you were distracted and I was able to get to close." Said the stranger

Renamon thought the voice sounded familiar, it was also right. She had started to think about Rika again every time he made a sound and brought her back to her duties. After a few moments of silence Renamon asked in her usual cool voice, "So who are you, you seem familiar."

"How about this, if you can defeat me in a quick sparring match I will lower this hood that hides my identity." The stranger said in the same cool, but familiar voice. He then put his sword back in it's sheathe and laid the two swords on the ground. Renamon was surprised by this. She was happy about this though. It seemed this digimon, who ever he was wanted a fight of pure martial art skill. He apparently wanted a fight with no weapons, and Renamon got the sense he wanted neither of them to use their special attacks. The cloaked figure then took a few steps toward her and did a martial art style bow. Renamon turned to face him directly and did the same. Renamon then quickly took up a fighting stance, but was surprised to see her unknown opponent just getting up from his bow and standing straight up. She could feel the stranger's eyes staring directly at her. She couldn't understand why he was just standing their in a relaxed position. She could see at least 5 different opening for an attack. She decided to jump straight up into the air and try coming down on him with a simple flying kick, but the figure just stepped aside as if she was moving in slow motion. She was amazed at how fast this stranger had moved, and his movement hadn't even caused his cape to ruffle. She hit the ground and quickly threw a punch at the cloaked figure with her right paw. She was sure it was going to hit, but he then seemed to vanish from right in front of her. She was quickly thrown off balance by the motion of her fist and the fact it had only hit air. Once she had regained her balance she turned to see the figure behind her. Renamon was tired of this silly gamed and jumped into the air. Once she had some decent altitude she initiated her special attack, diamond storm. She was smiling slightly. She knew the guy couldn't escape now, or so she thought. Once the attack had finally hit him she noticed that he simply was absorbing the attack and after a moment her raised his right arm and threw Renamon's attack right back at her. Needless to say this caught the yellow fox digimon off guard and she braced herself for the attack, but it never came. She saw that her attack had stopped a few inches from her body, and then soon disappeared. Once she had returned to the ground the figure had already walked over and picked up his swords. He had reattached them to his belt and was starting to walk towards the vixen digimon. Renamon was truly scared of this stranger. He had deflected her best attacks with such ease that he seemed to be just playing with her. The stranger was now standing right in front of her, their bodies about 6 inches apart. In all her fear Renamon was only able to say, "Who are you? I know I have skirmished with you before, and your voice. That voice of yours sounds so familiar, like a long lost friend."

"Well, I must admit, your fighting skills have improved greatly since I last saw you, but I am the victor, but you know what I feel like reveling my identity anyway. After all we went through, how could you forget you only brother." With that the mysterious figures cloak seemed to vanish as if it was only made of shadows. It revealed a digimon much like Renamon. There were key differences. The base color was a sapphire blue, with white where Renamon had white, but red under the eyes instead of Renamon's purple. He didn't have Renamon's arm guards or the symbols on her thighs, but he did have two swords and their sheaths on a belt wrapped around his middle, a bow and quiver of arrows, and on his belt buckle a very complex circular design. Finally his eyes, unlike Renamon's blue, were a hazel.

Renamon stared at the digimon for a while then was finally able to say, "Ro...Ro…Ronomon."

"It has been a long while little sis, way to long for my tastes." Ronomon said with a smile and a tear in his eye. Renamon quickly took her long lost older brother up into an affectionate hug. Both of them crying softly as they hugged, and the after a few seconds they released and Renamon, with a big smile on her face, asked, "I though you were dead, I saw you get destroyed."

"I took a big risk that day. Once I was sure you were safe I used a new trick I developed for the first time in an actual fight. I call it false death. I disrupt my data and reformed myself several miles away. I was able to walk myself into a nice quite hiding place before passing out. I don't know how long I was out, but your trail had grown cold. I have been searching for you ever since, though the fact you went to the real world for a while didn't help my search, but in spite of that I am truly proud of you, my little sister. From what I hear you were one of the digimon that helped to destroy the D-Reaper in the real world."

Renamon quickly regained her composure and replied, "Yes, but we couldn't have done it with out our tamers."

"To true, but they couldn't have done it with out you, your friends." Ronomon turned to look down into the canyon. Renamon turned to see he was looking at the campfire her closest friends were currently circled around, asleep and lost in their dreams.

"Yeah, it would have been impossible with out them. It would have been impossible without Rika." Renamon said as a few new tears forming in her eyes. Ronomon saw this and a pain grew in his heart.

Ronomon then turned to his dear sister and said, "Don't worry, you know I haven't been lazing about in the time we've been apart. I have now mastered those techniques I was practicing last time we saw each other, but before I go any further, I believe you need to introduce me.'

"Well, I know how you hate to wait so let's go get this over with. I need to talk to Terriermon anyway, his snoring is a worse then the D-Reaper ever was." Renamon said as she jumped down to the canyon floor and started heading toward the others. Ronomon quickly followed her, smiling at his sister's attempt at humor.

Once they arrived Renamon did the introductions. After a few moments of tense silence Leomon walked up to Ronomon and extended his paw saying, "I am happy to meet you Ronomon."

Ronomon took Leomon's hand, began shaking it, and said, "The pleasure is all mine."

"Now that we got the introductions out of the way, "Impmon interrupted, "but why have you decided to appear here and now when we could have used your help when we were fighting the D-Reaper."

Renamon jumped up before Ronomon could respond and said, "Don't you even say something like that to Ronomon."

"OH," Impmon replied, "Did I strike a nerve when I accused your brother of being a coward for not fighting while the D-Reaper was attacking."

This was the last straw for Renamon, and was just about to drop kick Impmon to the other side of the Digital World when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned to see Ronomon was looking at her with icy eyes. He then pulled her back and stepped up in front of Impmon. Impmon was quickly silenced by the icy glare Ronomon was sending to him. Ronomon's face then returned to its usual gentleness and he said, "Now, I would love to just keep talking aimlessly like this, but I did come here for a very important reason. It involves both all of you, and your tamers."

"Our tamers?" Leomon said.

"Yes, your tamers," Ronomon replied, "You see about two years ago, back when me and my sister were still traveling together. We got separated for an about a month. While on my own I discovered a lost plane of the digital world. On that plane was a single building, and in that building was a book on a pedestal. When I picked up the book and began to read it suddenly glowed, broke into data and infused it self into me. I now know that it had empowered me with two very powerful mystic arts. The first is elemental control, by using my will I can take control of 8 different elements in any combination. The elemental forces I can control are Light, Shadow, Fire, Ice, Water, Lightning, Air, and Earth."

"Really," Terriermon interrupted, "Show us your stuff then."

"Pick an element then my interrupting bunny." Ronomon said as he gave Terriermon a look that gave out a sense of annoyance and mischievousness."

"Let's see you take control of our simple campfire."

"Sure, step back." Ronomon said as he stepped up to their campfire, he placed his hand above it and closed his eyes. Suddenly the fire began to grow and swirl around his right hand. As it crept up his arm it went around his back and began to twirl down the other. He then stepped away from the fire, opened his eyes and looked at the group. He then moved his left hand, and pointed to Terriermon. The fire slowly began to creep through the air, and as it did it took the shape of a snake. The flaming snake stopped right in front of the superiorly spooked Terriermon, and then turned suddenly into a flower. It sat there for about 5 seconds, and then Ronomon released his control over the fire and the whole body of flame disappeared.

"How was that Terriermon?" Ronomon said with a smirk on his face.

"That was impressive." Terriermon finally said after he recovered form the shock of having a flaming snake turn into a flaming flower an inch in front of his nose."

"That was nothing, but may I finish my story before I give anymore demonstrations."

The rest of the group nodded and Ronomon continued.

Ronomon said, "The other ability I gained from the book is the ability and the knowledge to perform Alchemy. The art of transforming one item or set of items into something new based on the law of equivalent exchange."

"What's this law?" Lopmon asked.

"It is the law that dictates alchemy. It basically states that I have to give something up of equal quantity to get something to be produced by alchemy. I couldn't turn this sand we stand on into gold, only reform it into something new, like a rock or sculpture. Simple, isn't it."

The rest of the group again nodded, though some of the nods seemed to be coming from a fake understanding of the concept.

"To continue my story," Ronomon continued, "I was then separated from my sister a few months before she went to the real world and meet Rika. This is actually the first time I have seen her since that fateful day. The only reason I found her now is with the help of Azulongmon. He had contacted me about three days ago. He told me how to find you and told me about what you had done for both this world and the Real world. He then asked me to do something that was out of his power to do."

"And that was?" Renamon asked.

"The task he gave me was to use my alchemy and elemental bending to take myself to the real world and from there figure out a way to allow you all to return to the real world, and survive in the real world."

The reaction from the others was comparable to a bomb exploding as they exploded with glee that they had a new chance to see their tamers.

"Now for this to work", Ronomon interrupted, "You must stay with in this general area. When I figure out a way to bring you to the real world, I'm betting you will not have a large window of opportunity to return to the real world, so try to stay close by."

"Wait a minute," Impmon said, "How are you going to get there?"

"Remember that book, Azulongmon told me that it also gave me the power to travel between the two worlds and to survive in the real world. I now have made several trips between the two to make sure I could do it at a moments notice, so before I go a will reinforce my previous statement. You must stay in the area or miss your chance to see your partners again. Understand."

The group again nodded in unison, and with that Ronomon said, "Good, well it's been nice seeing you again Renamon, and I hope to see you again soon, but I have work to do." With that Ronomon suddenly started to glow a bright white, and then disappeared leaving the digimon partners with a new hope in their hearts that they would see their tamers again real soon. He also left a Renamon on the brink of tears. She now had her brother back, and soon she may have her partner back.

The group didn't realize that they were being watched in the distance. The shadowy figure was just standing there, staring at Renamon with a look of disgust. The figure said in an evil, female voice, "Soon Renamon and Ronomon, with your deaths will come my rise to power." The figure then disappeared, leaving nothing out of place.

Assistant: Well hope you enjoyed the first chapter, and don't worry about this story not getting finished. My style is to right the entire story on my laptop first and then post it here when I find time to get the files prepared.

Ronomon: I hope you would review this story only once you've read the entire thing, but my partner here is no language major so when you believe you have found a grammarian error e-mail him about it and he will look into it.

Assistant: Geez, ruin the good mood I was in.

Ronomon: Sorry
