As the light faded it revealed an egg with violet rings swirling around it
“This can’t be” Zac stammered as the egg floated in front of him
He extended the arm and lay his palm on the smooth surface of the egg and it rested into his arms
“I can’t believe it” Zac said a beaming smile on his face “It finally came”
The egg fidgeted in his arms, Zac laid it on a bed of thickets and walked to the entrance of the cave. He looked out at the frozen land and icy forests, he was in Russia, he had been at Echo’s Russian offices when he heard news of Lazarus arresting Alpha Team, luckily for him he had contacts and managed to get his way out of the base before officers arrived.
He knew the reason for their arrest Azza had been sent on a mission to close all the gates to the Digital World, the main gate being in Odaiba, Japan. No one but Lazarus knew why the gates were to be shut but Azza and Zac had come with a plan to backfire on Lazarus. The only gate left open was the gate from the London Eye which stands over the British branch of Echo, Azza had closed both the gate in Odaiba and the gate in England, there was only one way to now open the gates and that was by the person who closed it with their D-Touch. Zac sighed before entering the cave to check on the egg, the egg still rolled and fidgeted like a person in a bad dream.
“Zac Jones?” a voice whispered from behind him
Zac turned startled his fists ready as he saw a battered young boy with blonde hair and a navy peak cap almost crawling into the cave, Zac ran to help the boy, lifting his head and supporting it
“Are you ok?” Zac asked in Russian
“N-no” the boy replied, he saw the egg “You have Digimon?”
“Not yet” Zac said “You know of Digimon are you a Tamer?”
“N-not anymore” the boy stammered his eyes beginning to fill with tears “T-they k-killed Kuwagamon”
“He’ll come back” Zac comforted “When a Digimon dies there data his reassembled into a new Digi-Egg”
“N-not anymore” the boy stammered his energy weakening drastically “Something’s happening in the Digi-World my friend, when a Digimon dies it now stays dead”
Zac’s eyes were wide with shock
“But worst of all my friend is that this puts the Digidestined and Tamers at risk” the boy continued “There’s a connection between Digimon and partner one so strong that neither can live without the other…so when one dies so does the other”
The boy gulped as his face went paler, Zac looked at his egg rolling frantically
“Is that w-what’s happening to y-you?” Zac choked out the words
“Y-Yes” the boy said “T-they killed Kuwagamon, n-now I-I-I-”
His mouth began to froth with blood as his face went as pale as the snow outside, he held his hand to his face as he looked in horror as his fingers began disintegrating into small particles, soon the rest of his body starting from his feet started doing the same. The boy panted heavily as he lost his arms and legs slowly, closing his eyes in manic pain, soon the disintegration started on his torso and up to his head
“S-Save…t-the…o-o-others” the coughed and panted through the blood erupting from his mouth, his eyes rolled back and the blood began flowing out of them. Zac looked on in horror
“What can I do?” he thought to himself as the particles finally consumed the boy, he slammed his fist into the pool of blood that had been left behind as tears flooded his eyes “I have to do something but what? If I reveal myself I’ll be arrested”
He stood up and looked out of the cave to the sun setting on the frozen forest, he clenched his fist
“No…I cant let this happen” he said clenching his fist tight “I have to save them even if I have to do it alone”
“Your not alone” a mysterious yet friendly voice said from behind him, Zac swirled on his heel again this time to find a long lost friend, one he had not seen for nearly a year. George stood there a small robotic canine-creature kneeled by his side, his black D-Touch shone brightly with his crest symbol, a spiral with three hexagons surrounding it, shining on the face “The Order will help!”
“George!” Zac cried out in shock “What are you doing here…how did you know I was here has Echo sent you”
“Echo has no way of tracking me no more” George said “I came here by my own means…that boy that was just here?”
“Dead” Zac choked “You knew him?”
“Yes” George said somberly “He was a member of The Order, Yuri was his name, Yuri Rasputin he had been partnered with a Kuwagamon”
“He told me of his partner” Zac sighed “Not of his name, what happened to Kuwagamon”
“Shot down” George sighed “We were on a mission when Echo discovered us out of nowhere came to sharp blades, Kuwagamon managed to deflect one but the other hit him in the chest…it was unfortunate for Yuri that they were not higher up”
“Unfortunate? How?” Zac asked thinking his friend sounded quite brutal at that point
“Well he would have died instantly if he’d had a higher fall” George replied, he noticed Zac was giving him and evil glare so he continued “As soon as Kuwagamon was hit he died instantly so Yuri’s fate was sealed…the only problem is, that the process of being killed when your Digimon is, is that it’s a slow painful process”
Zac began to understand what he meant but was still confused on why he had come here, he looked at the robotic dog
“Is that a Digimon?” Zac asked
“Yes” George replied thinking it was a silly question “This is Gigamon” The mechanic dog bowed low
“Its nice to meet you, sir” the dog said in a mechanic voice
The egg still rolled around frantically on the bed of thickets
“I need your help Zac” George said “I’ve made a resistance and we’re gonna bring Echo down”
“What about the others?” Zac asked
“Azza and Jack have been arrested as well as the Digidestined, Sian‘s in a coma and Nathan‘s still on the Navy circuit and Echo won‘t risk such a public display and as for Tom I cant get a hold of him” George sighed “Its just you and me and now only five others”
“Who are the others?” Zac asked
George walked to the edge of the cave and whistled, five other children soon came into view. The first one was a blonde boy wearing a grey t-shirt with a read shirt over it, on one shoulder was a cream coloured rabbit with long lop ears with green patches on its body, on his head was a single small horn, on his other shoulder was another rabbit identical to the first except the cream was replaced with brown and the green replaced with pink, on its head were three horns as opposed to two.
“This is Willis Washington” George said “And this is Terriermon and Lopmon”
Next to him was a girl sobbing into her gloves her blonde hair covered by a brown bobble hat, beside her was a large grey horse with black wings and a red helmet with a long horn on the top
“This is Anna Kandinsky” George introduced “And her partner Unimon”
The next girl had her arm around Anna comforting her, her hair was also blonde but short, behind her was a large green insect with no eyes and instead of hands had to large blades.
“This is Sonya and her partner Snimon” George said
The next teenager was a blonde hair girl with a pretty face her hair was platinum blonde and tied back, her red dress tattered, by her side was an exhausted humanoid-plant its head like a red bulb and her hands budded flowers
“This is Catherine of France and her Digimon Floramon” George introduced
The last teenager was a tanned boy with long hair and a red bandanna around his head, beside him was a large dinosaur with huge spikes coming out his back
“And finally this is Lou Smith and Tortomon” George finished
“I know some of you” Zac said, nodding towards Willis “Some of you I don’t I’m afraid”
“This is what’s left of The Order” George sighed “We’ve suffered major casualties over the passed few months”
“What’s our first move?” Catherine asked in a light French accent
“Well we need to have a proper send off for Yuri” George sighed “But first, Zac I need an answer”
Zac looked around at the badly beaten teenagers and why they were fighting, he felt as if he was looking at Alpha Team six years ago, he hesitated look at Alpha Team now half of them were in prison while the rest were in hiding except for Tom…god knows where he had gone, Sian was in a coma and Nathan would be getting arrested once he stepped foot on the shore, would this Order become corrupt in years to come as well?
He looked once more at their determined faces and then finally at George
“It would be an honour” he smiled, the egg stopped rolling and exploded in a ray of bright light to reveal a small furry creature with large ears and a long bushy tail rolled up in a ball, it stretched and yawned poking its head up on its forehead was an emerald gem that shone in the moonlight, it scanned the beings surrounding him
“Why everyone so serious?” the Digimon asked, his eyes met Zac’s “You must be my partner”
The creature leapt to its feet and ran at Zac “Me name’s Racoonmon”
“I-I’m Zac” Zac beamed
“Why its nice to meet you Zac” Racoonmon smiled
“Now that your partners hatched I reckon its time we start planning what we do…starting with busting the others out of jail” George said rolling up his sleeve to show his D-Touch “But first Zac I want you and Racoonmon to follow me”
George pushed a button on his D-Touch and a swirl of light erupted from it standing there was a swirling portal with shards floating around it
“You need to see the damage” George told him stepping inside, Zac hesitantly followed

The van hit every bump and pot hole with perfect precision making the teenage captives bounce and ricochet around the back of it, each teenager had their eyes stared at one boy, their eyes were cold and filled with anger, confusion and disappointment. No one said a word.
“Explain Azza” Tai said breaking the silence “You seem to know something of this”
“All you need to know is that this is Echo and that-” Azza couldn’t bring himself to finish his sentence
“Azza?” Kari asked worried and afraid
“That we’re all gonna die” Azza sighed closing his eyes fighting back he tears “I’m sorry I’ve brought you all to your deaths”
“What!” Tai snarled in outrage “You bastard”
He propelled his foot and hit Azza square in the jaw making his glasses fly off and blood fill his mouth
Azza chuckled
“You were right Matt” he said his eyes filling with tears as he spoke “Death and Destruction wherever I go”
Matt had sobered up extremely quickly when he had been tackled and arrested, he turned his eyes away from Azza
“Azza?” Julia sobbed, Azza couldn’t look at her, her voice became harsh and angry as tears ran down her face “Look at me!”
Azza turned his head to look at her
“I-I’m sorry” he said more tears forming over his face “I didn’t want you to be dragged into this”
“But you love working at Echo both you and Tom did nothing but talk about it for as long as I’ve known you” Julia sobbed “So why have they suddenly turned on you?”
Azza opened his mouth to speak but Tai cut him off
“What is this Echo?” he growled
“Its an organisation” Azza sighed “It used to help send rogue Digimon back to the Digital World or treat them if they were ill etcetera”
“Doesn’t sound so bad” Izzy said, Tai glared at him
“Your right Izzy it wasn’t, but then the Head Coordinator, Dr Naigen, disappeared and was replaced by Dr. Lazarus, the man you saw tonight” Azza sighed “He began corrupting the organisation and when we tried to leave he found means of blackmailing us-”
“Us?” Julia asked “What’s been happening and to who?”
“The whole of Alpha Team we’ve all been forced to stay in service somehow” Azza sighed “Jack’s grades would only be kept up if he stayed in service, Zac’s family would be able to live in a proper house rather then the streets if he stayed, Sian tried to leave but an ‘accident’ put her in a coma that she hasn’t awoken from yet, Nathan gets to work hand in hand with the Navy as long as he answers to Echo first and as for George he’s the only one they had no hold over so he managed to get away before all this escalated, Tom was always the good soldier though he just took orders without any sense of personal honour”
Azza looked around into their eyes for any sense of understanding
“And you?” Julia said still disgusted with her boyfriend “What excuse do you have to remain with them if they disgust you so much”
Azza swallowed hard trying to bring himself to word it
“Well?” Julia sobbed angrily getting impatient
“Thomas” Azza sighed
Julia looked gob smacked while the others were confused
“Who’s Thomas?” T.K. asked
“His nephew” Julia said still shocked “Azza what’s happened to him?”
Azza was shaking with worry, anger, depression all the emotions he had buried for the last three years that they had him finally dug their way to his surface, the others looked at him waiting for an answer
“Azza!” Julia screamed her emotions taking over “What have they done with him?”
“T-they t-t-took him” Azza cried “When e-ever I don’t c-cooperate they hurt h-him”
The silence became eerie
“How longs this been going on?” Julia asked crawling closer to him
“Three years” he said “Its his birthday tomorrow…what’s to say they haven’t already killed him”
Azza broke down finally three years of worry and depression caught up with him as his eyes went manic, and he shook as if he were extremely cold, he looked around the van with the manic eyes not seeing not feeling just looking. Julia rested her head on his shoulder and he jumped, feeling her soft hair brush his neck and her soft cheeks rest on his shoulder, his breath calmed and his shaking slowed.
“We’re gonna save him” Julia said her face smiled but her eyes were filled with dread and worry “I promise you”
“Don’t make promises that aren’t certain to work” Azza said moving from her affection turning from the Digidestined “We have no hope”
“There’s always hope” T.K. said, his chest glowing yellow “Even in the darkest hour without hope what do we have?”
“Well a light would help” Azza sarcastically responded
“That does always help” Kari replied, her chest glowing pink “If there’s no light in your soul then your just empty”
“It would be foolish to try” Azza sighed
“Not idiocy” Izzy said his chest glowing purple “If we have the knowledge to know what we’re getting ourselves into”
“Wow guys” Azza smiled “After everything that’s happened how is it possible for you to still rely on me?”
“No matter what the person” Joe said his chest glowing silver “They still have someone who needs to rely on them”
“We may fight and argue” Mimi said her chest glowing green “But without each other where’s the happiness? Where’s the Sincerity?”
“We’re like a family” Sora smiled her chest glowing red “No matter how much we disagree at the end of the day we still love each other”
“It’s the kindness towards each other that keeps us strong” Ken said as his chest glowed rose
“And even when all else fails even a miracle can be performed” Davis smiled his chest glowing gold
“But what kind of friend would I be to let you guys risk this” Azza sighed “This is my problem to solve”
“What friends would let you tackle this alone” Matt said his chest glowing blue “Besides its our decision what we do with our lives”
“And if we have the courage to stand up for what’s right” Tai said his chest glowing orange “Then by god nothing can stand in our way”
They looked at their chests and their eyes closed
“Kindness”
“Miracles”
“Light”
“Hope”
“Reliability”
“Sincerity”
“Knowledge”
“Love”
“Friendship”
“Courage”
Azza turned to Julia
“You can’t stay” Azza said “I cant lose you and if I’m to die then your beauty must live on”
“Beauty is only to the eye of the beholder” Julia smiled, her chest glowing violet “Besides I’d rather have a massacred face then a massacred nephew”
Azza looked around at everyone, their faces showed determination
“I know Echo, and there tough” Azza sighed “Tougher then most Digimon none of your destiny’s are to die here that much I’m sure”
“Destinies can change Azza” Cody smiled his chest glowing a mixture of grey and purple
“We make our decisions for what’s right” Yolei interrupted her chest glowing a mixture of green and red
“Destiny can change” Azza whispered thinking, he laughed loudly “Of course how could I be so stupid nothing is set in stone if there is willpower”
His chest shone a bright ivory
Both Azza’s and Julia’s D-Touches began to manically beep and shine, suddenly two bright orbs of light floated in front of Azza and Julia
“What the-” Azza said in confusion as the light began to subside
Laying on the floor where one orb had been was a small fluffy white creature, his snout was long and he had no arms instead to fin-like wings, there were no legs only a small tail. His eyes opened and met Azza’s
Where the other light had been now rested a small rodent like creature her small ears twitching as she slept, she was white with golden stripes along her body and her small flesh tail swayed gently through the dust of the van, she opened her eyes looking at Julia
The first creature jumped at Azza catching him in an embrace while the second merely crawled up onto Julia’s shoulder nestling gently into her cheek
“Who are you” Azza asked puzzled and slightly scared
“I’m Nimbusmon silly” the creature chuckled “I’m your partner”
“And I’m Haosmon” the mouse creature whispered “I’ve waited a long time to meet you”
Azza and Julia were taken aback as were the other Digidestined, before another word was said there was another flurry of manic beeping and twelve more orbs of light burst to reveal more creatures
In front of Tai laid a yellow dinosaur with long claws and a large snout
In front of Matt was a furry humanoid wolf with blue fure with purple stripes, one long yellow horn sticking from his head
In front of Sora was a pink bird with a large red beak and ring around her right leg
In front of Izzy was a red bug, large for bug standards, his bulbous eyes a lime green and his arms long and thin
In front of Joe was a small white seal with an orange Mohican, purple marking across his face, back and forearms
In front of Mimi laid a green humanoid plant a bloomed flower acted as her hair, and her long arms were peaked with three long purple claws on each
In front of T.K. was a small guinea-pig like creature with large orange ears that were folded in its sleep, it had small padded feet and a mini tail at the back
In front of Kari was a large (compared to real world) white cat with large ears tipped with purple, a long winding tail with purple stripes running up it at the peak it fanned out into three purple strands, around it was a bulky golden ring with strange markings around it
In front of Davis was a blue lizard with a white horn on its snout and a yellow ‘V’ on its forehead. The creatures blue hands were large and round as they lay sprawled on the floor
In front of Ken was a over sized caterpillar- creature with long antenna and purple claws, its mouth was like a purple fly trap and it had a purple marking on its forehead.
In front of Yolei lay a red bird with a white feathered head with a belt around its head, a red feather with a yellow tip stuck out of the belt. its wings had three black talons on both.
In front of Cody lay a yellow marsupial- creature with a hard shell on its back and on its forehead, two large ears stuck out either side of his face, on the forehead was a strange red pattern.
The Digidestined stared in amazement and shock
“Agumon!”
“Gabumon!”
“Biyomon!”
“Tentomon!”
“Palmon!”
“Gommamon!”
“Patamon!”
“Gatomon!”
“Veemon!”
“Wormmon!”
“Hawkmon!”
“Armadillomon!”
The Digimon woke up and looked around in amazement and joy
“Tai!”
“Matt!”
“Sora!”
“Izzy!”
“Mimi!”
“Joe!”
“T.K.!”
“Kari!”
“Davish!”
“Ken!”
“Yolei!”
“Cody!”
The Digimon and their partners embraced tightly tears of joy running down their cheeks. The Digimon looked pained and exhausted some even had bruises and blackened eyes
“Why are we in a van Tai?” Agumon’s high pitched voice asked
“We’ve been arrested mate” Tai sighed
“What have you lot done now?” Tentomon sighed
“Nothing” Izzy giggled “We’ve been arrested for being Digidestined I think”
Izzy turned to Azza, they still hadn’t had a full explanation
“I think that’s it” Azza sighed, he generally didn’t know why they had been dragged along “They wanted me for betrayal I don’t know what they have planned for you, my main concern is how the Digimon have got here since I-”
He stopped, he hadn’t told them yet, they looked at him waiting for an answer. Azza sighed now was the time to tell all
“Since you what?” Matt asked
“Echo sent me to Odaiba on a mission, I wasn’t here for a social visit” he sighed, he saw Tai’s eyes flash with anger once more “But I was also here to try and bring Echo to a stand-still”
“Explain” Tai growled
“The mission was to close the gate here in Odaiba so that no more Digimon could pass through worlds and also so no more humans could stumble into the Digital World” Azza said he quickly continued before Tai could get a word in “Me and Alpha Team arranged it so that we were the ones being shipped across the world to the different gates, seven in all-”
“Cut to the chase Azza” Tai snarled
“I’m getting there Tai, please just wait” Azza sighed “The only way to close the gates is with a D-Touch, hence why Alpha Team were the only ones suitable for the job, when the gate is closed by the D-Touch the only way to open again is from the same D-Touch. Five had been closed by the time I arrived that just left the gate in Odaiba and in Echo Headquarters, London. Me and another member of Alpha Team called Zac found out that if we connected the power of five D-Touches from all the continents apart from the continent in which the gate is then you can close the gate and absorb its energy and store it within the shared power of the D-Touches”
“Meaning?” Mimi asked
“Meaning that each D-Touch used has a fraction of the gate” Izzy said “Am I right?”
“Yes” Azza smiled “The energy that the gates give out is shared equally into our D-Touches until such time as we release the energy”
“What happens then?” Izzy asked “Will the energy all re-calibrate itself to the original point or something else?”
“No, the energy will open a portal exactly whe-” Azza stopped and smiled
“What is it?” Julia asked
“The energy will open a portal where you are” Azza said in glee, bringing his voice to a hush to be certain the drivers didn’t hear anything “I have an idea but it’s terribly risky”
“What is it” Tai asked
“The part of the gate that resides in my D-Touch will make a portal into the Digital World which would close behind me as I walked through”
Izzy clapped his hands in amazement
“The only problem is without any technological source there is no way of pinpointing a location to emerge we could emerge in the middle of a volcano or something” Azza said
“We have to try though” T.K. said “Are we all agreed that we try”
“Agreed” the Digidestined and their Digimon said nodding there heads
“And with the time difference between here and the Digital World if we can open a portal at Sora’s house we may be able to save some of the guests”
The atmosphere went cold
“What?” Azza said “What’s wrong?”
There was a silence before Izzy spoke
“When we last visited the Digital World the fight with Eramon, a Digimon who controlled the time, when he was defeated the two worlds once again became in sync with each other”
Azza looked defeated, he looked at Sora
“I’m sorry” he said
Sora didn’t say a word
Azza pulled his sleeve up from behind his back where his hands were cuffed and revealed his D-Touch, pushing numerous button (A/N: its important to remember that he presses numerous buttons whereas George only pressed one in the previous chapter) it glowed and shot out a ray of light. The ray of light moulded and shifted itself into a floating portal with shards hovering around it
The Digidestined stood, luckily they hadn’t been shackled to the vehicle and their legs were free one by one they entered the portal, until only Sora, Julia, Azza and their partners remained, he turned to Sora
“I can cause a time lapse when we get there Sora” he said “I could set the time of us returning to an hour before we set it…enough time to evacuate the party”
Sora blankly looked at him for a few seconds considering her answer, her eyes stinging red from her tears
“No” she replied after a while reminiscing the battle with Eramon “I’ve learned my lesson when it comes to meddling with time”
She and Biyomon stepped into the portal disappearing, Azza turned to Julia
“I’m sorry” Azza said “For everything”
“Its ok” she said “Seeing your reasons have made me love you even more”
She kissed him softly before herself and Haosmon disappeared into the portal as well
Azza twisted his hands so that he could feel inside his pocket, his hands fell on the small black box and he smiled
“You ready for this Nimbusmon?” he asked his companion “Our first adventure”
“Can’t wait boss” Nimbusmon said in a squeaky voice climbing to sit on his tamers head
“Hey don’t let Julia or Kari catch you up there” Azza chuckled “They took forever on that hair”
“Hmm” Nimbusmon chuckled “I don’t know why but you seem like the kinda guy to prefer a hat”
“You know what buddy” Azza laughed “You ain’t far wrong”
There was breeze through the portal as a white Stetson hat, slightly larger then Azza’s, rolled through. Azza picked it up, Nimbusmon hovered as his partner placed his hat on his head before once again resting on his head. Azza laughed at the chances of that happening then turned into the portal.
The doors of the van opened just as the portal closed, Lazarus stood there his eyes looking where the portal had been. He grinned evilly.
“You’ve done well agent” he cackled

lol i aint died haha but thanks and signamon you might like the little tk kari bit in this
Lazarus puffed on his sickly cigarette as he turned the pages of a large leather file, DemiDevimon hung upside down on one of the ceiling beams, his sharp wings folded around his round body.
Lazarus’s office was draped with exquisite designs, the walls were mahogany, on the opposite end of the door rather then a wall there was a large stain glass window depicting seven strange creatures raising from a dark pit, in front of it was a large oak desk with Lazarus sitting behind it, in front of the desk was a large black settee and two armchairs of the same material. Hanging around the office and in glass cabinets were strange objects and artefacts cluttering the office.
Lazarus smirked as he turned the pages of the file, it was a file on the Digidestined and Tamers as well as there Digimon, it had all information held on them from there names to there dental records, somehow the file could update itself without human interference.
“What is taking so long Lazarus” a voice hissed through the wind “We are getting impatient”
Lazarus shook with fear and alarm, he stood from his desk and turned to the stain glass window, one of the figures, a blonde haired angel with a draconic wing on his left with an angelic one on his white, his hair long and his face pale yet pretty his body draped with elegant clothes and his hands covered with silk white gloves.
“Lord Lucemon!” Lazarus shuddered bowing low “To what do I owe the honour?”
“I have come with a message from Daemon, requesting you tell us what is the reasoning for your delay” the image snarled
“Ah” Lazarus stammered “W-well you see I was betrayed by a team of my own agents, they have absorbed the gate here in Britain so we must now change the gates”
“Who are these traitors?” Lucemon inquired
“Alpha Team” Lazarus sighed “The disappointment is that they are m-”
“The disappointment is that you let yourself be defeated by a bunch of kids” Lucemon snarled “What more these kids do not even have partners, at least not at the time of their plan”
“Lord Lucemon” Lazarus stammered “You have my promise that the plan will be back on track by the end of the week”
“For your sake I hope so Lazarus” Lucemon smirked “But Daemon also wants to see these traitors…alive”
With that the image became inanimate once again and Lazarus wiped his brow. There was a knock at the door
“What is it?” Lazarus snapped
The door opened and a soldier walked in fear in his eyes
“S-Sir” the soldier stuttered in fear “DATS are here”
“Great” Lazarus growled “What the hell are they doing here?”
“I don’t know sir but they have arrest warrants” the soldier shook
“What!” Lazarus screamed slamming his fist down onto the oak desk, waking DemiDevimon and making him fall off his perch, the soldier squeaked with terror, Lazarus looked up his eyes filled with malice “Lead the way”
The soldier bowed and left the room, Lazarus followed with DemiDevimon closely behind him, they were guided into the large main foyer of the base. Standing there was a man with black shades and a long navy coat, on his shoulder was a ferret - creature with golden markings, standing next to him was a girl in DATS uniform her face stern while her flower- Digimon partner floated beside her.
“Ah General Sampson” Lazarus cheerily called entering the room, a false smile on his face “To what do I owe the honour”
“Don’t play games with us Lazarus” the man spat back “We know something is up here”
“How do you mean?” Lazarus played dumb
“Well we’ve had reports that two of your agents are missing, one is at sea, one in a coma and another one is arrested” Sampson growled “We would like to know what has happened?”
“Well I can assure you we have had nothing to do with this, the two missing well we are just as worried about them as everyone, the agent at sea is on a mission and the girl in the coma cannot be set for our responsibility it happened by pure accident when she was on recreational time” Lazarus lied
“And what of the boy you have arrested?” Sampson snarled
“Well you see he performed an act of treason towards the crown” Lazarus lied once more “So as you yourself should know I had to act and arrest the boy”
“What was the treason?” Sampson asked
“By law I am not allowed to discuss into that with you sir” Lazarus said in a soft voice
“God dammit Lazarus” Sampson bellowed “We have it on good authority that you are up to something to do with the Digital World making that DATS business to see you arrested now come quietly or do we have to take you by force?”
Lazarus lips curled into a grimace as he stared into the black shades of the other general
“Would you like to see the boy?” Lazarus asked “I can assure you he is quite alright”
Sampson thought of his reply before answering, he nodded lightly and Lazarus smiled wickedly
“This way then, sir!” Lazarus smirked.

Zac stepped through the portal into a sight he had never hoped to see. He had only visited the Digital World once before and then it had been beautiful and colourful with luscious forests and spellbinding ocean. Now the world was broken and miserable, the forests were dead and the oceans savage, the sky was erupting with thunder and cackling with lightning. What was once colourful was now dull. What was once full of joy was now full of sorrow. What was once alive was now dead.
Zac’s eyes were wide with shock and upset, Racoonmon stood by his side his eyes full with the same disbelief
“What happened here George?” Zac asked afraid of the answer
“Echo happened” George sneered
“How did Echo do this?” Zac asked “We closed the gates they had no access to the Digital World”
“There not working alone” George sighed “They have inside help
“How do you mean?” Zac asked confused
“You know the stories of the Royal Knights right?” George asked, Zac nodded “And how they serve the Sovereigns of the Digital World?”
Zac nodded once again
“But I’ve met the Sovereigns and not even Zhuqiaomon would want this” Zac objected
“That’s because the Sovereigns are no longer who they are meant to be” George replied
Zac looked on in confusion
“Ebonwumon is dead, Zhuqiaomon captured, Baihumon is unconscious and Azulongmon has gone missing” George replied somberly
“But who has the power to overwhelm the Sovereigns?” Zac asked in disbelief
“I don’t know” George replied “The Dark Masters were able to capture them once before but never to kill one”
“Plus there dead so they can’t return right?” Zac interrupted
“Stranger things have happened” George sighed looking down at Gigamon
“Why did you bring me here George?” Zac asked
“Because our meddling with the Digital World is what’s to blame for this mess” George said turning away from Zac and looking up into the dark sky “Its our job to fix it”
Zac looked at the back of his best friend then beyond him into the broken Digital World, finally he looked to his side at his partner. He had only just got Racoonmon he couldn’t risk him so soon could he? But he couldn’t sit back and see Racoonmon’s destroyed more. George turned round.
“It’s a dangerous task Zac and I won’t think any less of you if you back out now” George said resting a hand on his friends shoulder “But once your in your in till the end you can’t leave”
Zac looked deep into George’s eyes for the first time since he knew him he could see fear in his eyes
“Do you believe we can do it?” Zac asked
“Yes” George replied
“Then that’s all I need” Zac smiled “I’m in, let’s bring Echo to her knees and regain our dignity”
There was a beeping from George’s D-Touch

Matt sat by the at the edge of the cliff below him the water crashed up against the rock, they had arrived in the Digital World to destruction and darkness, their partners could not remember what happened as if there memories had been wiped. Matt looked out to the horizon, Gabumon asleep beside him.
“You got a light?” a voice came behind him, Matt turned standing behind him was Azza his hair blowing back in the wind in his hand a white cigarette
“I thought you quit” Matt said
“I did” Azza sighed “But you know how it is”
Matt rummaged in his pocket and pulled out his Zippo lighter and threw it to Azza, catching it and lighting the cigarette. There was silence.
“I never forgot you guys you know” Azza said after a moment
“You never kept in touch though” Matt said coldly
“It was easier this way” Azza sighed
“Easier on who?” Matt asked
“On all of us we were friends for so long we became family” Azza sighed “To keep in touch and not know if we will ever see each other again would have been to much on all of us”
Matt stayed silent
“Besides its not as if you guys never influenced my life” Azza said
“How do you mean?”
“Well Tai taught me not to be afraid and to stand up for what’s right as well as how not to use a brush, Izzy showed me how to use a computer to its ultimate potential, Joe taught me how to keep myself safe while Mimi gave me a wicked eye for style and fashion” he chuckled slightly, Matt smiled “Sora taught me how to love and forgive and Kari gave me the passion to seek my dreams while T.K. gave me my love for basketball and hat”
“What about me?” Matt sighed the smile vanishing from his face “All I gave you was a hunger for nicotine and lung cancer”
Azza sat beside him and looked into his deep blue eyes
“Don’t be an idiot” he smiled “You gave me my biggest passion of all”
“What’s that” Matt asked
“Music” Azza smiled “You were always my role model Matt you were the one who was the ultimate of cool and when we were younger I loved spending time with you and then when you formed the Lonely Wolves last time I was in Odaiba I started learning music”
Matt’s eyes widened in shock and embarrassment at Azza’s words
“Wow Azza, thanks…it means a lot” Matt smiled, possibly the first genuine smile he’d had in a while “What do you play?”
“Cornet, guitar, drums, piano, bass and sing” Azza chuckled
“Wow” Matt laughed “I know who to call next time I have a gig”
“You mean it?” Azza smiled looking like a kid at Christmas
“Yeah” Matt laughed “If your good that is”
“Well so people say” Azza smiled
“Lets see you sing then” Matt said
“I don’t do to well as a soloist” Azza said blushing crimson
“Don’t worry ill sing with you” Matt looked at him “How about I turn around I know how much you used to love that song and always begged me to finish it which I never did”
Azza smiled and began
You got a boy, got a girl Sitting underneath the tree They sit there every day And even though you may think That this is the way to be It may not always be that way You can’t take nothing for granted You got to live like today
Matt joined in at the chorus
I turn around I can see what behind me I turn back around I can see what’s ahead And if you don’t believe ill be here all along Just turn around Just turn around
“Wow Azza” Matt said as they finished “I never expected that to come out your mouth”
Azza went more scarlet “Thanks”
Azza put the burning cigarette in his mouth and inhaled deeply, Matt looked at him
“I’m sorry for earlier” he sighed
“It’s ok I just wish someone had told me what was happening with you” Azza sighed “You know I would have come back sooner if I’d known”
“Thanks dude” Matt sighed he looked at the cigarette in Azza’s mouth “Does Julia know about you smoking”
“She thinks I quit” Azza sighed “I hate lying to her”
“Pass me your cigarettes” Matt said, Azza confusedly passed him the cigarettes as Matt stood up, Matt clenched his fist around the packet and retracted his arm extending it quickly and releasing the packet from his grasp, the cardboard box flying through the smog and down the cliff side into the ocean
“What did you do that for?” Azza asked his eyes wide in shock and slight anger “I need those!”
“Need? Since when has Azza Evans needed anything?” Matt laughed, his face suddenly going serious “I started you on this habit now your going cold turkey to get off it”
Azza gulped
“I’ve tried that before” he said his eyes full of guilt “It doesn’t work alone”
“You won’t be alone” Matt smiled down to him “Your with us now and its back to how it used to be, there was nothing we could not get through and now that your back it can be the same again…we’re a team”
“Team!” Azza thought his mind’s eye flew over a mental ocean to an island and into a city, through the streets to a secret and inside an organisation, it flew through hallways to an office, six teenagers standing and sitting, laughing and drinking. There was a seventh person an elderly man with a grey beard and straggly hair his wrinkles creased in a pleased look, this was Alpha Team and Dr. Naigen, they had always dreamed of visiting the Digital World together for the first time, getting there partners together and now look at them how many of them were alive? Azza felt a weight in his chest and a lump in his throat he looked at Matt and simply smiled.

“I love you” Karri giggled as she kissed T.K. on the lips
“Not as much as I love you” he replied returning the kiss
Kari was red with embarrassment and flattery as they walked hanging off each other stopping every few moments to cuddle and kiss, Kari heard a sniff.
“What was that?” Kari asked her boyfriend, T.K. was blank
There was another sniff accompanied by sobbing, this time T.K. heard it, it came from behind a nearby bush T.K. slowly approached it in case it was dangerous, he cautiously pulled back the branches.
Sitting in a small clearing was Julia, she was hunched over with her head in her hands sobbing into her dress
“Julia?” T.K. asked kneeling behind her placing his hand on her shoulder, she jumped slightly “Are you alright?”
Julia looked the blonde in the eyes her own filled with tears as her mascara ran her eyes red from the crying
“I’m scared” she sobbed “I feel alone I mean I’m in a foreign place without anyone I know and I’m a wanted fugitive now”
“Hey” T.K. smiled “What about Azza?”
“He’s got enough to worry about what with his nephew and all” she cried “Besides this has always been his dream, to be in the Digital World with his partner on an adventure just like the stories you lot had once told him…this isn’t my world”
“Of course its not silly your not a Digimon” T.K. laughed trying to cheer up the girl
“No I mean this isn’t what I do, I’m not the hero” Julia sobbed “I know nothing of this world, and Azza is in bits he blames himself for all that’s happened I can see that just by looking at his eyes, there growing colder and I can see all the years of lack of sleep and stress finally catching up with him, he believes he’s failed”
“Failed?” Kari asked wrapping her arm around the teen “Failed who?”
“Everybody” Julia sobbed “he believes he’s failed to keep Alpha Team safe, he failed in his relationship between you guys, he failed to keep his nephew out of harm and he failed Dr. Naigen, all this is slowly driving him insane”
“Who is this Dr. Naigen?” T.K. asked
***
“Azza” Tai called “Can I speak with you”
Azza sat on the edge of the cliff flicking through pictures stored on his D-Touch, Matt had left to collect fire wood to bring back for the others leaving Azza alone with his thoughts. This was Azza’s biggest fear.
“Umm yeah sure Tai” Azza said turning as he heard his name
Tai sat down on the rocks beside him
“How’s your face” he asked
“Better” Azza smiled “I feel sorry for the soccer ball in your matches with a foot like yours”
Tai smiled weakly
“We’re gonna get him back you know” Tai said “We’re gonna free your nephew”
“How do we know that there’s anything left to free?” Azza asked somberly
“What does your heart tell you?” Tai said simply
“I don’t want to drag you guys through this” Azza sighed
Tai grabbed his wrist and held out his D-Touch, Azza crest symbol shone brightly in the screen
“Your one of us now…more then ever”
There was a loud crash as a cloud of dust and gas flew out from the middle of the lake illuminating the dark sky in fire. The two Digidestined looked on in horror.
“So it begins” Azza thought somberly to himself as the cloud grew.

“Ok guys we got business to attend to!” George said re-emerging into the cave “Operation Breakout is go!”
The Tamers that were sitting in the cave all at once darted around the cave there Digimon hiding any trace that anyone or anything had inhabited the cave, Anna and Sonya mounted Unimon and Snimon taking to the skies while Catherine and Floramon joined Lou astride Tortomon. Willis stood awaiting orders along with George and Zac
“Willis I need you to Digivolve both Lopmon and Terriermon to Mega and lead the way and I shall Digivolve Gigamon and follow behind” George said twisting the face of his D-Touch
“Yes, Sir” Willis replied in his thick American accent, pulling out his Digivice in the process “You heard him guys”
His Digivice shone gold
“Terriermon warp Digivolve to….
….MegaGargomon”
Where Terriermon had once stood now stood a fifty foot tall robot-like creature armoured with large green plates, two long thin plates horizontally pointing from its head, his arms were covered
“Lopmon warp Digivolve to….
….Cherubimon”
Where Lopmon once stood now stood a large angelic creature with pale pink skin and two large ears and large hands, two golden rings tied to his ears
“Zac you and Racoonmon can ride with Cherubimon” Willis smiled “Don’t worry he’s perfectly safe”
Zac was nervous not only was he flying into battle but he also knew that this Cherubimon had once contracted a virus that corrupted him and caused Cherubimon to nearly destroy half of California, this Cherubimon was different though the infected Cherubimon had been dark blue and purples where as this one was different shades of pink. Cherubimon held out a large hand.
“Hop on!” the Digimon smiled in a deep baritone voice as Zac and Racoonmon leapt into the creatures large palms and being lifted and placed on its shoulder
Willis had already positioned himself on MegaGargomon’s large shoulders
“Cherubimon take the west flank make sure to keep an eye on Tortomon in case he needs aerial support” Willis called to his second partner, he looked at Zac and gave him a warm smile before MegaGargomon’s rockets volleyed him out of the cave
“Hang on tight little guy” Cherubimon said softly before floating out of the cave leaving George and his partner alone in the cave
“Do you reckon everything will be alright Gigamon?” George sighed
“Negative sir” the Digimon replied “Once we leave this cave we leave for war that we may not return from sir”
George pondered on his decision
“We can turn around now sir” Gigamon interrupted “There’s enough power left to make a final portal to anywhere it doesn’t have to be here or the Digital World you know where these portals can take you”
“I can’t just abandon them there my friends” George sighed “Where’s the Justice in that?”
“Justice is not your crest though sir” the Digimon smiled
“And where does it say that a person cannot be more then one thing” George sighed looking down at his D-Touch, the crest of Faith, a black spiral with spines coiling around it looking slightly like an ammonite shell, blazing on his wrist “Besides it shows a lot when I don’t even have faith in myself for this task”
Gigamon looked up and smiled
“Its not the first time a Digidestined has questioned there own power” he said “But deep within you it is true, the crests choose you so they know who is the best for that purpose…the crest chose you because of the faith you display in others”
“You really think that?” George smiled
“Only you can answer that one” Gigamon replied “Now we had better catch up before we lose them”
George nodded and turned the face of his D-Touch it glowed golden
“Gigamon Digivolve to…..
….Cyborgmon”
Where Gigamon once stood was now a bulky humanoid with thick armour of metal and mechanics around his body, he looked like an Ogremon with parts of Machinedramon as armour, he wasn’t ugly as Ogremon but neither did he have the radiance of Angemon, on his left arm was a large cannon and over one eye was a blue lens the let him see the data within everything he saw. His voice was now less mechanic but a hint of machine was still audible.
“If you fight then I fight with you” Cyborgmon’s low voice said as he looked down on his partner “To whatever end”
George climbed onto Cyborgmon’s back as his jet boots kicked into action rocketing them out of the cave
“To whatever end” George thought with a lump in his throat
***
“How long will it take us to get there?” Zac asked as he soared through the sky astride the angel
“Longer then usual” Cherubimon sighed “A Digi-Bridge is a lot easier but alas all the gates are closed”
“What’s a Digi-Bridge?” George shouted through the wind
“Its like a teleportation system where you travel through the digital signals to another destination via the internet” Cherubimon replied
“Wow that’s incredible” Zac smiled “Where about are we now though?”
Cherubimon looked closely at the ground beneath him then shrugged his shoulders
“This is your world you should know” he chuckled “All my life I’ve been in California, Willis never wanted to take us out to far after what happened with the virus, even though he knew id reconfigure into a healthy Digi-Egg it does something to your brain that drives you slightly crazy each time”
“Humans aren’t used to it” Zac said “When we die we just die”
“But what happens then?” Cherubimon asked confused
“No one knows” Zac laughed “I suppose you could say no ones lived long enough to find out, but there are whole I suppose you could say organisations dedicated to theories of what happens”
“So you leave it all to chance” Cherubimon asked confused
“Pretty much” Zac replied
“What about the facts or the data?” Cherubimon asked becoming more and more puzzled
“There aren’t any” Zac smiled “That’s what makes living so enjoyable cuz you never know what will happen”
“So you have absolutely no way of knowing when anything will happen” Cherubimon said with a slight terror in his voice
“That’s the whole fun of it” Zac said “But its also the curse”
“Curse?” Cherubimon’s voice boomed
“Your constantly worried and your blood rushes whenever you do something remotely dangerous knowing that this could be it if you f**k up” Zac laughed, he knew just how bad living on the edge of things had been.
He had once lived rough on the streets after his father had lost his job and before he joined Echo, a large part of him wished he hadn’t made that choice. But Echo had not always been bad, when Dr. Naigen had been in charge he had always felt like he was dong justice to both this world and the Digital World, but now with Lazarus he knew that all those feelings were left behind and with now being exposed for his plan, he would most likely find himself sleeping rough again soon, he hoped his parents were ok, but then it hit him that knowing Lazarus then his parents were long dead. His eyes foamed with the beginning of tears.
“Why you crying?” Racoonmon asked quietly “Your not nervous are you?”
“No, its not that” Zac sniffed “I’ve done this kinda stuff millions of times before, I’m jus thinking of how far will this go before anything gets better”
“There’s more to it then that” Racoonmon said “I can see it in you”
“Its my father” Zac sighed “He also works for Echo, I’m going to war against my father”
“Wow dramatic” Racoonmon joked, Zac couldn’t help but smile
Zac looked around him, he saw Unimon flying beside him, his partner Anna’s eyes were still red from the tears she had shed over Yuri, he had noticed that all the Digidestined present didn’t speak very good English apart from himself, George, Willis and Lou, although being in constant access to Digital streams, there Digimon were lingual in many if not all languages.
Snimon was flying not to far from Cherubimon with Sonya resting quietly on her back her face stern but still with a hint of fear, below Zac could just see the heads of Lou, Catherine and Floramon bouncing on top of the colossal Tortomon as they slammed through the foliage below, Catherine’s eyes were full of fear and her face was pale as she held tightly to Tortomon’s thick back spines
“Why is she so scared?” Zac asked himself quietly
“She’s never fought anything this big before” Cherubimon sighed “She the Order’s newest member, apart from you, and also the least experienced”
“Has she ever fought?” Racoonmon asked
“Once” Cherubimon replied “Her government files say that she though in France last Christmas Eve against Mamemon, BigMamemon, MetalMamemon and Giromon, her Floramon Digivolved for the first and only time into Kiwimon and she was assisted by a MetalGreymon and MagnaAngemon-”
“So there were other Tamers there?” Zac said
“No, no, no even better there were two Digidestined” Cherubimon chuckled
“What’s the difference?” Zac asked
“Well every human with a Digimon partner is a Tamer but if you have a crest or some association to one then you are a Digidestined, so everyone here are Tamers except for yourself, George and Willis” Cherubimon enlightened “You have the crest of Honour, George has the crest of Faith and Willis holds the Digi-Egg of Destiny”
“Wait a second did you say Destiny?” Zac asked, Cherubimon nodded “But that’s Azza’s crest how can they both have the same”
“There are crests and there are Digi-Eggs of Power or Digimentals to some, these allow a special type of digivolution known as armour digivolution which makes its power level between that of a Rookie and of a Champion level, except for golden armour digivolution which boosts it to the equivalent of a Mega Digimon but there are only three of those, the Golden Eggs of Miracles, Destiny and Honour” Cherubimon told “But a crest bearer cannot carry a Digimental and visa versa for they cancel each other out making them both useless although it has only happened in two rare ocassions to two members of The Celestial Digidestined”
“The Celestial Digidestined who are they?” Zac asked
“They are the Digidestined of Hope and Light, there partners Mega forms are the two guardians of the Digital World, the partner of Hope, Seraphimon, is a human Digimon whereas the partner of Light, Magnadramon, is a beast Digimon, together they both show the unity of the Digital World and store peace if that bond is in anyway broken then chaos will ensue” Cherubimon sighed “I should know”
“How do you mean?” Zac asked
“After the Great War between the human Digimon and Beast Digimon the Legendary warriors sacrificed there lives to restore peace and then left it under the guard of three holy Digimon, Seraphimon to represent human Digimon, Magnadramon to represent beast Digimon and myself who was neither human nor beast, rumour told of a fourth but we do not remember a fourth, anyway when I became possessed with the virus the first time around I shattered the bond between the two Digimon and chaos split the Digital World in half thankfully it was saved by the first Digidestined which were also the reincarnated spirits of five of the ten Legendary warriors, thankfully they managed to purify me before the final damage was done”
“So how were you possessed a second time?” Zac asked as they flew across a large stretch of water
“Well it was millennia after the reformatting of the Digital World but only a year and a half in your time line” Cherubimon chuckled “I and my twin had recently died and had just been reformatted as eggs it just so happened that on the day we arrived at Primary Village it was the day Gennai was searching for the new partners to the Digidestined, apparently there had already been a new wave of Digidestined had come and gone and the third were to be chosen the Digivices had been sent then all that needed was partners, Gennai did not wish to split me and my brother up so he sent us together to Willis who at the time was such a lonely and unhappy child all he needed was friends, he wasn’t to be part of the big adventure that took place until now”
Cherubimon chuckled
“So a few Earth years passed and the person who had gave me the virus had sent that same virus to a project on Willis’s computer resulting in Kuramon, which later Digivolved into Diaboramon and wiped out half the internet which later infected me” Cherubimon laughed
“Oh yeah I remember that, the military went scitzo, that was the same time I got my D-Touch” Zac laughed, Cherubimon laughing beside him
“We’re here guys” Willis called from the distance on top of MegaGargomon with Tortomon in his arms “Get ready for battle”

ok so this is the last chapter so far (and the last one concerning George and Zac in this fic but they will be back in the sequel)
this chapter as not had any reviews what so ever yet so if someone could give it a full review then please do
p.s. this chapter made me cry writing it lol youll understand why hopefully
General Sampson and his assistant Yoshi were escorted by one of Echo’s security down a length of spiral staircases into a damp and stony environment, they could tell that they were deep underground, well of course they would be if the top floor of Echo Headquarters is underground in the first place. The only light was provided by flaming torches at intervals along the walls, despite the flames the place was cold and eerie. As they reached the bottom they were greeted by two more security guards that flanked the a rusty iron gate, the security guard who had escorted them pulled out an Identification Card
“I’m to escort these two too see prisoner #453” the security guard sneered
“On who’s authority” the bulkier of the two guards asked
“By my authority!” General Sampson interrupted “Now open this gate”
The guard looked General Sampson and his eyes narrowed when he recognised the DATs badge pinned to his trench coat, a small grin formed on his face as he pulled out keys
“Right this way General” the guard slithered as he unlocked the iron gate
The gates flew open and the General and Yoshi were escorted inside, around them were four jail cells occupied with four teenagers, each had a strange creature in the cell with them and all were bruised and scarred and covered in dirt and sweat.
In the cell directly to Sampson’s right was a boy no older then fifteen, his hair was chocolate brown and flapped in front of his tired and dead eyes, his face was covered in cuts that were both infected and fresh as well as bright purple bruises on his pale face, on his left hand there was the remains of an arm guard that had been smashed and cracked, his clothes were torn and scabby. On the floor unconscious (or maybe sleeping) beside him was a small armless purple creature with an elongated head and yellow markings across its body.
Beside the first cell the second was also occupied by a teenage boy this one had short black hair that was dull with a mixture of gel and sweat, his face was small and pale and his features were non-expressive his right eye was purple with bruising. By his side nursing a wound on her wing was a large bird with two stray black feathers on top of her bulbous head. Her eyes were large amber ovals filled with sorrow and pain, he wings were peaked at the ends with three long talons. Her feathers were jet black and mangled with dust and dirt.
Another cell held another boy and creature. This boy had long blonde hair that was tinted with blood and dirt, his face was long and tired and paler then the others, his face was etched with troubles and lack of sunlight. His ocean blue eyes that looked as if they should hold so much warmth were cold and lacked all hope. His partner creature was toad-like with four arms that were peaked with a single white nail on each, on his scaly skin was a large red fin that was made of bone, on his soft white underbelly was a long large scar that was septic and yellow.
In the final cell there was a boy on his own, he was curled into the corner with his head in his knees rocking back and forth against the wall as his black hair fell downwards swishing back and forth with him as he moved, in the silence of the cell you could hear the boy muttering but what he was saying was indistinguishable. When Sampson entered the cell chamber he looked up and his manic eyes shot up at Sampson. Sampson met the boys eyes
“This is horrible” Yoshi gasped as she looked around at the cell “These kids are only between fifteen and seventeen at most”
Sampson’s eyes were still staring at the boys, Kudamon stirred on his shoulder and nuzzled down into the breast of his jacket trembling in fear. Sampson knelt in front of the boys prison without losing contact with him
“What are you here for my boy?” Sampson asked soothingly, the boy just continued to stare
“Free the Spirits of Ten and let digital be restored again” the boy puffed
“What does that mean?” Sampson asked him
“Free the Spirits of Ten and let digital be restored again” he repeated moving from his position and crawling to the bars
“That’s all he ever says” the blonde boy spoke, his accent thick and American, also coming closer to his own bars, Sampson shifted his attention to the boy talking to him
“I’m Michael” he said “Michael Washington, and this is Betamon”
The toad-like creature gave a weak smile as his partner continued introductions
“In the cell next to me is Jack and Sparrowmon and in that other cell is Ryo and Hopmon, as for him” he gestured towards the mumbling boy “We don’t know his name”
“I’m General Richard Sampson and I disagreeistant Yoshino Fujieda” General Sampson announced “And these are our partners Kudamon and Lalamon, we work at DATs”
“What’s DATs?” Michael asked
“Its an organisation that was set up to research and protect Digimon and Tamers” Sampson explained
“Like Echo” Jack sighed
“I doubt DATs locks up kids” Michael spat
“You don’t know what Echo was like before Lazarus” Jack sighed
“That Echo died with Naigen, Jack move on” Ryo replied keeping his calm
“He’s not dead” Jack said quietly “right?”
“So then are you here to release us?” Michael asked his eyes filling slightly with hope
“Of course” he turned to the guards at the gates “Open these cells immediately by order of the state”
“No can do there General” the guards sblack personed “In fact on Lazarus’s orders you are to join these tamers”
The guard laughed manically as he shut the gate to the cells and began to lock them in again
‘BANG’
A cloud of dust and rubble erupted at the top of the spiralling staircase, the two guards looked at each other and thingyed their guns ready for whatever came down the stairs. Back in the cell the mysterious boy was shouting his phrase louder then before with a hint of excitement in his voice.
Down the staircase a boy with long straight hair and a cold face walked down, a robotic-humanoid-creature accompanied him. Behind him was another boy his skin tanned and his hair longer and bushier then the first, he was astride a wolf-like creature with long fangs and a white furry mane.
“On No!” one of the guards stammered as he saw the boys, he raised his gun along with his colleague
“Sonic Split” the wolf-creature screamed and a shockwave erupted from his gaping jaw, the weapons the guards were holding shattered from the shockwave, one of the guards fell backwards in the shock and landed on a rusted spike that stuck out of the gate, the spike shot through his chest like a needle through thread, his chest leaked blood like an oil spill. The other guard stood there his eyes wide with fear and shock with flickers of hate as he pulled out a knife from his belt
“Mega Virus Shot” the cyborg called raising his arm that was encased with a large cannon and released a shining blast of energy at the card incinerating him. His dark corpse fell to the floor smoke still rising from the extreme heat of the blast. The two tamers and there Digimon descended the rest of the stairs.
“George! Zac!” Jack cried as he noticed his two friends “How did you-”
“No time to explain now, Jack” George interrupted as Cyborgmon broke down the gate and the tamers stepped into the prison cell “Let’s just get you guys out of here”
Cyborgmon and the wolf-Digimon, Howlmon, began ripping the bars off the walls while George, Zac, Sampson and Yoshi helped support the captives inside
“Do you know where there holding your Digivices?” Zac asked the mysterious boy
The boy replied with his usual phrase
“What?!?” Zac was confused
George swivelled on his heel to face the boy, he grasped hold of his arms
“Koichi!” he said shaking the boy to which the boy was unresponsive, he clicked his fingers in the boys face to get his attention “Koichi! Its me, it’s George”
“G-George” the boy stammered, his dead eyes coming slightly to life as he recognised the other tamer “W-What are you doing here, have they captured you as well?”
“No” George replied, the boys eyes slowly became more life like “We’re here to get you out can you spirit evolve?”
“No” Koichi replied his self becoming normal once again “I don’t have my D-Tector?”
“Jack” George said turning “Do you know where they’ve been put”
“The Vaults” Jack said hurt as me moved properly for the first time in a while
George lifted up his arm and spoke into his D-Touch
“Lou, this is George get to the vaults and smash those things open see if you can find the Digivices”
“On it boss” Lou’s voice responded through the Digivices
“General Sampson, Agent Fujeda” George said acknowledging the two agents of DATs there before them “Can your Kudamon and Lalamon Digivolve and help us fight?”
“Yes of course” Sampson replied before looking down at Kudamon, and then too Yoshi and Layamon “Ready?”
There heads nodded in agreement and Sampson and Yoshi pulled out there Digivice iC as they glowed in there hands
“Kudamon Warp Digivolve to…
…Sleipmon”
Kudamon’s small, sleek and ferret-like appearance was replaced by a tall humanoid-horse Digimon, plated with red armour with a large crossbow on his right arm with a majestic shield on his right, his purple mane flowed elegantly out of his courageous helmet as he stood beside his partner
“Lalamon Warp Digivolve to….
…Rosemon”
Where the had once been Lalamon there now stood a cross between human and flower, her body was sleek and beautiful, her face heart shaped and her lips large and red. Her eyes were covered by a large helmet resembling a rose flower and in her hand was held a lethal whip edged with thorns. She stood next to Yoshi washing the fear the human had had
“Now things have changed so watch your backs” George explained “No longer can you survive without your partner if one is killed its game over for the other, slowly and painfully I must add-”
Zac winced slightly as he remembered Yuri slowly dying in his arms
“-and there’s no coming back this time once your done your done” George sighed
The Tamers nodded there heads a slight fear and sorrow rested in their hearts
There was another loud crash from upstairs as George’s D-Touch signalled an incoming call
“We got the Digivices” Lou said through the device “But Lazarus has turned up and he’s brought back up”
George and the rest of the group hurried up the stairs as fast as they could (the prisoners only being slightly slower) luckily the doors to the dungeons were situated only meters away from the Vaults, down the corridors they could see the other Tamers firing attacks down a corridor to which other attacks and bullets were being retaliated. Lou was standing behind Tortomon as his partner shielded bullets, clutched in his hands were the Digivices, Michael’s Standard Digivice, Ryo’s D-Power, Koichi’s D-Tector and Jack’s D-Touch. The group joined Lou behind Tortomon’s barricade.
“Ok guys let’s join the fight” Michael said as his and the others Digivices glowed
“Betamon Digivolve to…
… Seadramon”
Betamon was replaced with a slimy serpent with cold eyes and a yellow bone helmet, it slithered around Michael as he took position on his head and joined the battle
“Hopmon Warp Digivolve to…
… Cyberdramon”
Hopmon was replaced with a gruesome dragon like creature with large scythes on his forearms and a helmet shadowing his facial features, his teeth were sharp and in a grimace
‘BIOMERGE ACTIVATE’
‘JUSTIMON’
Cyberdramon and Ryo both collided in a beam of light as they formed a new entity, the resulting creature was a noble warrior Digimon with a large cybernetic arm and a red scarf trailing behind him, he kept the helmet previously held by Cyberdramon but held a more softness that could relate to Ryo, when he spoke both the voices of Ryo and of Cyberdramon echoed each other
“Sparrowmon Digivolve to…
…Owlmon”
A noble and wise looking owl now stood where Sparrowmon once had, he retained those large oval eyes that had belonged to Sparrowmon as his large brown wings flapped in warning to his enemies
“Execute!” Koichi cried “Spirit Evolution!”
He burst into bright light as his spirit formed his armoured body, the spear and shield he carries nobly flew into his hand
“Lowemon!”
Where the human Koichi had stood now stood the Digimon Lowemon, his armour black as night with gold mane flowing behind him, his shoulder pads were in the shape of two lions heads both with large ruby orbs in there mouths
“Ok guys lets bring this place to the ground” George said issuing the orders
“Gargo Barrage” MegaGargomon cried releasing two large missiles…
“Lightning Spear” Cherubimon called as he summoned a thousand bolts of red lightning firing them forwards…
“Pummel Peck” Kiwimon (Catherine’s Floramon) shouted as his mouth opened releasing dozens of explosive missiles…
“Twin Sickle” Snimon swung his large scythes side to side as he released two thin sharp beams of energy…
“Aerial Shocker” Unimon released a ball of shining energy from his mouth…
“Strong Carapace” Tortomon’s shell spikes glowed as he released them…
“Ice Blast” Seadramon released a cold breath of ice from his jaw…
“Justice Burst” Justimon’s arm changed to a cybernetic device releasing blue energy forwards…
“Shadow Meteor” Lowemon’s lion head chest plate gathered dark energy and fired it forwards…
“Hypnos Strike” Owlmon’s Amber eyes shone and let out pulses of energy…
“Forbidden Temptation” Rosemon;s energy surged forward in a wind of rose petals…
“Inferno Frost” Sleipmon fires a burning fire of ice…
“Mega Virus Shot” Cyborgmon once again released a powerful eruption or energy…
“Sonic Split” Howlmon’s cry erupted into a surge of sonic waves…
The attacks collided with the forces that Lazarus had mustered causing an enormous explosion
‘Free the Spirits of Ten and let Digital be restored again!’ rand in Lowemon’s as he realised what it meant
“Free the Spirits of Ten and let Digital be restored again!” he cried “I understand it now!”
“Slide Evolution…
…JagerLowemon”
The beast Spirit of Darkness leapt from the group and surged down the hall way
“Koichi what are you doing” George cried but he could not be heard “Cyborgmon we have to go after him”
“Right” Cyborgmon agreed “Mode Change!”
Cyborgmon transformed into a one man miniature jet, George took his position inside, he turned to Willis
“Start getting everyone outside” he ordered “If I’m not out in twenty minutes go on without me and contact Azza, tell him we failed and hope to god he’s got a plan B”
The thingypit hatch shut down over George as he rocketed forward down the hall in pursuit of JagerLowemon
Both Digimon skidded to a halt as they reached a doorway, on it a sign saying keep out, JagerLowemon burst through, Cyborgmon morphed back to normal form and followed him in
The room was a small laboratory with ten capsules with a coloured liquid in each, black, clear, yellow, blue, brown, orange, green, purple, pale green and red. In each of them (except the black liquid) held two statues depicting figures of warriors and creatures
“Free the Spirits of Ten and let Digital be restored again” George repeated to himself, then it snapped in his mind, the spirits of the ten legendary warriors, but what were they doing at Echo base last time they were used they had manifested back into normal Digimon, why were they now back to statues?
JagerLowemon shifted back to Lowemon as he pulled out his staff, he raised it high as dark energy surrounded him giving him strength, he forced the staff downwards and into the computer interface causing it to violently set alight and release the statues
The eighteen statues disappeared into the air as alarms began to sound reporting a red alert full system malfunction
“Where did they go?” George shouted above the sirens
“To there rightful masters” Lowemon replied “Now come on we better get out of here before this place goes up”
Lowemon morphed back into JagerLowemon while Cyborgmon converted himself into his vehicle mode, the two Digimon raced down the corridors as explosions began going off behind them. They caught up with the others as they were evacuating Echo Agents still faithful. The base was already crumbling around them
Lazarus emerged from the shadows clapping his hand mockingly
“Well well Tamers I never thought you had it in you” Lazarus sneered “And George, destroying Echo Base now, Dr. Naigen must be spinning in his grave”
George’s lip curled
“I’ve had quite enough of this” Yoshi hissed tears down her eyes “Rosemon arrest him”
Rosemon advanced on Lazarus bringing her Rose Whip up high, before she could descend it a black shadow shot right through her chest and disappeared. Her eyes went wide and white as her data began to evaporate
“NO!” Yoshi screamed in both disbelief and pain, she grabbed her chest feeling her own heart giving out, she dropped to her knees as Lazarus cackled uncontrollably the dark shadow taking hold of him and making him disappear his dark cackle echoed
General Sampson was at Yoshi’s side in a flash his eyes went red with tears already burrowing down his cheeks, he grasped her hand and felt it get cold
“G-General” she cried “I-it hurts…please just shoot me”
The General looked on in horror at this request
“P-please sir” Yoshi cried “Just make the pain stop…as one final honour”
“I-I” Sampson cried
“Please sir” Yoshi sobbed “Just one bullet, s-straight to the head”
General Sampson pulled his pistol from his breast pocket and held it to her temple
“Yoshi Fujeda…I-I will a-avenge you” Sampson cried as the rubble fell around him
Yoshi let out a small smile as she turned her eyes to Rosemon who lay cold and still
“I wouldn’t have been able to go on without her anyway sir” she smiled
The General let out a smile as the tears fell off his face onto hers, he moved his finger and she was gone. Yoshi Fujeda had passed from this world, Sampson picked up her body as he carried her out of the collapsing building into the cold winter night.
As the base burnt snowflakes began to fall
“Look Yoshi, snow” Sampson smiled “Oh how you loved it”
The snow fell softly as he lay her body onto the ground, the other tamers bending there heads in silence as they mourned there loss of both Yoshi and Lalamon

Okay, only read the first one of these before I realised it's either read rest or review so what I'm saying is based upon the first one alone. You've got a nice descriptive style. I liked the way you did it comedicly in particular. Now, I don't think it's at all in character of Davis to bed annother girl whilst dating Kari. Now, cheating, I wouldn't really complain so much about but, Davis would be panicing too much in my mind if he was in love with two girls at the same time. Also the changes between comedy and serous writing were somewhat jaring and the dialogue could do with some tweeking however it's overall a nice start. I'll read the rest when I get round to it.

thanks yeah the dialogue is kind of a struggle for me i try to make it sound natural but it usually comes out too chatty if that makes sense
and as for Davis he didnt love the other girl theres a chapter thats coming up that will show you what happened to everyone during those six months between 02 and the fic especially the people who got hurt i.e. Matt, Sora, TK, Kari and Davis in particular

I've only read the first two chapters, I'll get back to the others later but here's what I think of them: Daisuke in bed with a girl? WTF, this is Japan we're talking about and he's barely thirteen! What the hell are you thinking man?! Also, the kissing scene between Takeru and Hikari almost had me thinking they were going to do it; a simple kiss on the cheek already brings a lot of feelings especially in cultures of conservative countries like Japan (holding hands is already a sign of affection, man-hugs between men are nonexistent in their culture). You need to be more subtle with your-*Agito bonks me on the head* Please ignore the babbling idiot, he's tired from school and is terribly jealous of your writing skills; he can barely write a romantic romance. The first two chapters were good, if not wonderful (although he does have a point with Daisuke and haptics and proxemics in Japan). We'll get to the others when I have the time. Cheers!

haha thankyou for a funny comment lol i didnt want to reflect too much Japanese culture into it in case i got it wrong and offended anyone plus as i saw the english dubs they act alot more "American" in them
and theres a couple of notes just to clarify what your angry/jealous side said:
This is an AU so Davis is actually pushing fifteen in this as it is just over a year after 02
and the kissing stuff with Kari and TK was initially to be a full out lemon but i thought better of it so that this could appeal to a wider audience
as a british teenager whos not a romance writer i tended to just do the obvious and most common shows of affection, the cliché if your like, so that the focus stayed on the plot and the action rather then the romances
Davis being in bed with a girl is also relative to the plot later on also i wanted to show that he is a teenage boy who no matter how much he likes Kari is still gonna find interests in other women and that will tie into the sequel to this fic where it will also show why tai and matt fight etc. etc.
i hope that cleared some stuff up and sorry if i offended your culture in any way (i am just taking a stab in the dark that you are Japanese or from around that area) but i hope this hasnt in anyway put you off the fic and i shall stop writing this reply/apology now because its almost getting as long as the next chapter
