Originally, I was going to use this for showing just the reactions of the people in the Tamers Universe, what with the dramatically changed 02. However, I decided that I would use this as a place for DA Side Stories in general. This includes things about the Demon Lords, Snippits of the future, the Royal Knights, the Holy Beasts, and other stuff besides.

Chapter One: The First Episode
ôKenta, get in here!ö Hirokazu shouted.
ôIÆm coming, IÆm coming; calm down already.ö Kenta said, his arms full of snack foods.
If someone saw them, they would have thought they were sitting down for the film of the year. In reality, they were just getting ready for the new episode of Digimon.
But to them, it was the same thing.
ôDamn, I canÆt believe TakatoÆs gonna miss thisàö Hirokazu said, eyes glued to the screen. The credits of some other anime that was of no importance before Digimon were rolling and the episode he was waiting for would start shortly.
ôHeÆs probably watching it at his house.ö Kenta pointed out, reasonably. They were over at his house, because Hirokazu had insistedàfor some reason. Takato had said he was busy.
Takato had been busy a lot recently.
Kenta shook himself from those thoughts when his friend started bouncing in his seat.
ôItÆs starting!ö
The opening started off pretty upbeat and cheerful, as Kenta had expected, but he was surprised when the music got steadily darker. A number of faces appeared and he didnÆt recognize most of them. He saw Taichi and Yamato and the rest of the Chosen, but there were several new faces which he guessed were new characters. The opening ended with a black silhouette that looked strangely familiar standing alone on a grey beach.
And then the episode itself began, hitting them right off the bat with images of Pyocomon being deleted. Some were consumed by fireballs and died screaming. Some hid and were struck down despite the walls the coward behind. But they all died.
Pyocomon Village was dying and they werenÆt even three minutes in. They hadnÆt even seen the face of the person doing the killing yet!
ôHolyàö Hirokazu breathed, wide-eyed.
Kenta just gapped at the screen.
Wow.
Well, they were obviously doing something new this season.
Meramon showed up a minute later, but it was already too late to help. Pyocomon Village might as well not exist. And while it was a pleasant surprise to see Meramon again, the fact remained that he was a minor character who was going up against the villain of the showàwhoever that was.
The two boys knew enough about anime to know how that was going to turn out.
Suddenly, the scene cut to a young man laughing maniacally, causing Hirokazu to wince.
ôWow; he doesnÆt even get an onscreen death? Harsh.ö He said, pityingly.
Kenta looked at his friend oddly.
ôOh, I meanàwhoÆs this guy?ö He corrected himself. ôThe new villain? àI know I shouldnÆt judge a book by its cover, but he doesnÆt look like much compared to most of the other villainsàö
The scene cut again, showingà
The boys blinked as one.
ôIs that Mimi?ö Hirokazu asked.
Kenta tilted his head to the side.
ôI think so. She looks pretty different, thoughàhow long after the first season is this?ö
His friend shook himself.
ôWellàthat doesnÆt matter! The important thing is that now the Chosen have arrived. ItÆs time to kick some ass!ö
XxXXxX
The boys stared at the television screen in stunned horror as Sora was blown out of the sky. In perfect unison, they looked at each other and then back at the screen.
ôWhaàWhat theà? What the hell!?ö Hirokazu suddenly exploded, standing. ôI mean, seriously! Its episode one and a village has been massacred, Meramon died, death became permanent, and now SoraÆs taking a swan dive!ö
Suddenly, the ending started playing. It was full of faux-Latin chanting.
ôEven the songs are creepy!ö He shouted, pointing at the screen. ôWhat is this!? What happened to all that stuff about friendship and love in the first season!? Now itÆs full of death and pain and creepy music!ö
ôYou didnÆt like it?ö Kenta asked curiously.
Hirokazu calmed quite suddenly, sitting back down.
ôI didnÆt say that.ö
XxXXxX
