Dawn of the Dracomon
Toy Town, File Island
Kari, Margaret and their Gatomon came out of the Digi-Port in a normal fashion, but Jacob, who wasn’t used to traveling to the digital world, fell on his stomach as he came out with an audible “Oof!” “Kari laughed and asked, “Are you alright?” Jacob, who was slightly embarrassed by this, dusted himself and said while blushing “Yeah, I’m OK.” He then looked around and, with a confused expression, asked, “Did we go to the right place or did we end up in Disney World instead?” Kari laughed at his question and responded, “No, we’re in the right place. This is Toy Town. This is the home of Monzaemon.” “Who’s that?” Jacob asked, but his question was answered when a giant yellow teddy bear appeared and boomed happily, “Welcome to Toy Town!!!” “Gyah!” Jacob screamed in surprise and jumped into Kari’s arms. After seeing what had scared him, he agitatedly yelled, “Gees, can you give a warning before you do that?! I nearly crapped myself!” “Oh, sorry there,” the big bear apologized, “I meant no harm.” “Hi, Monzaemon, remember me?” Kari happily greeted Monzaemon. “Of course, little Kari! I haven’t seen you since you and Gatomon stopped those malfunctioning toys over 20 years ago!” Monzaemon then noticed Kari’s companions. “Well, who are you two kiddies?” he asked Margaret and Jacob, kneeling down to see them better. “I’m Margaret,” Margaret introduced herself, feeling intimidated by Monzaemon’s size. “Eh, I’m Jacob,” said Margaret’s “brother”, who found Monzaemon to be creepy. “Margaret’s my daughter and Jacob’s a close friend of mine,” Kari explained. “I didn’t know you got married!” the bear said. He turned to Jacob and said, “He looks more like your son…”
Remembering their reason for coming, Jacob hastily answered, “It’s a very long and confusing story. I hate to be rude, but we’re looking for a digimon that may have come by here. We don’t know what it looks like, but we know that it’s different from the others.” “There you are, Jacob,” a small voice said, “I’ve been waiting a long time to meet you.” Everyone looked past Monzaemon at what appeared to be a small, turquoise dragon with red horns and wings. It was standing there with a sort of irritated look on its face. “You must be my digimon. I would’ve come sooner, but I was frozen in a block of ice for twenty-four years.” “I see… Sorry for my rudeness. My name is Dracomon. I waited for you for over a year in the tropical Jungle. When you failed to show up, I joined Gennai in helping monitor the digital world. Until recently, I carried out the tasks he needed completed. I was there when Gennai was murdered by this new threat. Unable to do anything, I fled the castle, unnoticed by the villain’s minions Ever since Gennai died, I’ve vowed to find whoever I was waiting for and do whatever I can to avenge Gennai’s death.”
“You were there when Gennai died?” Kari asked. “Yes, and before you ask, I’m not sure who killed him,” Dracomon replied, “All I could see were two Dobermon and a mysterious figure, no doubt their leader. But there was something about those Dobermon. I could sense that they were more powerful than normal, and under the control of someone else. I knew they could easily kill me.” Jacob, angered by this shouted, “So you just ran away and left him to die? I never met Gennai, but I know he was important! Why didn’t you at least try?” “I’m sorry, but I wouldn’t have stood a chance” Dracomon said solemnly, “He would’ve told me to escape anyway.” “I see,” Jacob said. “Well, I’m sure you can help avenge his death by helping me out on my own adventure. Since you were close to Gennai, I’m sure you know about the eight extra crests he made. I need to find the owners of the other seven crests and help fight the Undead King. They’re spread across the planet, but I can access those places easily. I’ll need your help to venture across the digital world in case the Undead King tries to hinder us in finding the new tags. Will you help me?” As Jacob extended his hand, Dracomon had a thoughtful look on his face as he considered this. Dracomon, having made his decision, took Jacob’s hand and shook it, saying, “Let’s save the world and avenge Gennai together.” Jacob and Dracomon then turned to Kari and said, “Please teach us about being a digidestined team.”
