Ash's First Visit to the Digital World

In the Digital world, Ash, Pikachu and Kari had arrived in a forest.

"Ash, Pikachu welcome to the Digital world." Kari said as she welcomed them to the new world.

"Wow, this place is amazing." Ash said as he realized that he was wearing new clothes. He now sported a black long sleeved shirt underneath a red denim jacket, black fingerless gloves, blue jeans and blue and white shoes. "Woah, check out the new wardrobe." He said as Kari was amazed by Ash's new look.

'Wow, he really looks handsome.' Kari thought to herself while blushing. Soon, she shook the feeling off.

"Come on. We need to look for Tai." Kari said as Ash nodded. But, before they could start their search, T.K and Davis came running to them. Davis also had a new wardrobe which was a blue jacket with flame decals on it over a cream colored shirt, yellow gloves, army green shorts and orange and white shoes.

"Alright Dash, no one talks to Kari but me, got it?" Davis as Kari walked over to him.

"Don't start, Monsieur Motomiya." Gambit stated.

"First of all Davis, his name's Ash not Dash. Second, no one talks to my friend that way." Kari said in a annoyed tone of voice.

"Looks like there are some visitors in my garden and they're not on the guest list." The Digimon Emperor observed the group from a screen in his base.

"From what Kari told me about this place, it's not that bad." Ash said. Then he noticed some vending machines.

"Okay, I'm confused. Why are vending machines in the Digital World?" He asked out loud. Then he remembered what Kari told him. Digimon like to hide in vending machines.

"On second thought let's leave it alone." Ash said.

"Pika." Pikachu nodded.

"Ash, my digivice says this way." Kari said.

"Lead the way Kari." Ash replied.

"This place isn't so bad, the way Tai put there were monsters everywhere, huh?" Davis said as he saw the vending machine that Ash passed on.

"Hey guys check it out, there's a vending machine. I am a little thirsty." He said, but just before he could insert a coin, multiple green slug-like creatures came out of it, passing Davis.

"Haha, very funny." He said as he wasn't having fun.

"C'mon Davis, it was a little funny." Ash said as he helped Davis up. "So Kari, were those creatures Digimon?" He asked his best friend.

"Yep, there are more around in this world, a lot cuter than those ones." She said as Ash learned that there were more than just those slugs.

"And a lot scarier ones too." T.K added as Ash now knew about more dangerous Digimon.

"Do they all come out of vending machines?" Davis asked one of the stupidest questions ever.

"Man, we have a lot to tell our friends. Right, Pikachu?" Ash said, asking his partner.

"That's right Ash." Pikachu said as he covers his mouth, shocking everyone, including himself.

"I don't know. Maybe it's the Digital World. When you entered, it could've given you the ability to talk." Ash told his partner.

"Maybe, but at least you guys can understand me." Pikachu said they continue after that revelation.

(With Tai's party)

"We're real close by." Tai said as he looked at his digivice, tracking their signal. "There." He said as the hamster flew away.

"T.K!" The hamster said as he flew towards T.K.

"Patamon! Boy, am I glad to see you." T.K said as Ash saw Patamon, he learned about T.K's partner.

Ash and Pikachu stood back and watched the reunion.

"Hey guys, glad you made it." Tai said as he arrived to the others. Then he instantly recognized Ash.

"You're Kari's childhood friend." He said as he stuck his hand towards Ash and Ash grabbed the hand and shook it.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Ash Ketchum."

"Tai, I told those guys you'd be alright." Davis said as Tai was surprised to see him in the Digital World.

"Uh, Davis what are you doing here?" Tai asked as he was confused

"Kari." Gatomon said as she jumped into Kari's arms for a bear hug.

"Haha, Gatomon." Kari said as Ash finally saw Kari's partner.

"So, that's Kari's partner." Ash said as Gatomon had her gaze at Pikachu.

"Well, hello. My name is Gatomon." She said as Pikachu started to slowly turn reddish.

"Uh… hi, I'm Pikachu." He said so shy-like.

"Pikachu, what a wonderful name for a cutie." Gatomon said as Pikachu was completely red and had his face buried in Ash's jacket.

"So, Gatomon is your Digimon?" Ash said, asking Kari.

"Yep, we found out we were a team since Tai found my digivice in our world." Kari said as she explained how she became a digidestined. She quickly looked at her tail.

"Your tail ring. Tell me, what happened?" She asked her feline partner. Gatomon explained how she lost her tail ring somewhere else in the Digital World.

(Inside the cave)

"One day, this big, bossy human arrived and started to capture all the Digimon. He said 'I am the Digimon Emperor.' I hear we're gonna have to punch a time clock too." Gatomon said as the others (excluding the Digimon) were in shock.

"Another human, you mean someone other than us comes here? Well, there goes the neighborhood." T.K said as Ash wasn't as surprised.

"Another masterminded trying to take over the world. Why am I not surprised." Ash said as Pikachu was also annoyed by this revelation.

"Yeah, we seen this before." Pikachu said as Gatomon continued.

"Yeah, and he has this strange new black digivice that makes us unable to digivolve." Gatomon said in her discomfort, then T.K had an idea.

"Show her yours you two." T.K said to Ash and Davis, as Davis went first.

"Like this one?" Davis said as he held his digivice towards Gatomon and she started to get tense.

"That's it. You work for the Digimon Emperor." She said as Davis was in denial.

"What, no way. I don't work for anybody, besides mine's not black." Davis said as Gatomon now stared at Ash.

"Was yours like his?" She said as Ash shook his head 'no.'

"No, mine's different." He said as he showed her his digivice and then her intensity diminished.

"The Master digivice has chosen you." Gatomon said in shock while everyone else (excluding the other Digimon and Tai) were confused.

"The Master digivice, what is that Gatomon?" Kari said as Gatomon explained how the digivice was created. After a few seconds of explaining, Gatomon returned her gaze to Ash

"And now, the Master digivice has chosen you as the Digi-Master." Gatomon said as Ash was in shock.

"What? That must be some mistake." Ash said as T.K had his hand on his shoulder.

"There's no mistake. The Digital World chose you for a reason." T.K said as Ash returned his gaze to Gatomon.

"Alright, tell us about the dark digivice." Ash said as Gatomon had a serious face again.

"The dark digivice is draining our power and making us as mad as newborn kittens." Gatomon said as Tai then looked at Agumon.

That's why you couldn't digivolve." Tai said as Agumon was getting mad.

"Yeah, if I could digivolve, he wouldn't stand a chance." Agumon said as Patamon continued where Gatomon left off.

"The Digimon Emperor uses these dark rings to control the Digimon and once the ring captures you, you're a slave for life."

"I hear they do everything but get rid of fleas." Gatomon said as Kari and Ash were mad.

"I'm gonna slap a dark ring on him and see how he likes it." Kari said in fury.

"When I get my hands on him, I'll let Pikachu thunderbolt him then a thousand times." Ash said as Pikachu's cheeks started to spark.

"Like the plan Ash." Pikachu said as he was ready to fight. But, unnoticed by everyone, a dark ring was spying on all of them.

(Digimon Emperor's Base)

Thanks to the dark ring, the Emperor was able to hear everything they said.

"Hahaha, oh, you two think so, do you? Well this just a game to me, and I'm afraid that if you can't play by my rules, I'm just going to have to disqualify you. Hmm, who will I send to destroy you? Eenie, meenie, Minie, MON!" The Emperor said as he selected one of the buttons. A silhouette was shown on a screen of a triceratops.

(Prison Cell)

The cell that the Emperor selected held a Digimon that looked like a dinosaur. One with a gray shell over it's very light blue skin with gray on its legs and toes. It awakened from its slumber, lifted out of its cage, roared and ran towards the heroes.

(The cave)

After the heroes learned about their enemy and the Master digivice, they turned their attention towards the egg.

"That egg is heavier than my mother's meatloaf." Tai said as he reminded Ash about her cooking from the past.

"It looks like a deflated beach ball, no wonder, it's got a spike through it." T.K said as he tried to lift the egg, but to no luck."No luck, it won't budge." Kari then walked towards the egg.

"Move aside, this is a woman's job." She said as had the same luck as T.K.

"Too bad we don't have a woman here." T.K said as he got elbowed by Ash.

"Dude, not in front of Kari." Ash said as Kari blushed a little bit.

"Guys, I pump iron all the time, let me do it." Davis said as he went up to the egg, grabbed it and pulled it out of the ground like it was cork of a wine bottle. "What I tell ya, light as a feather."

"There's a problem." Tai said as an orange light came from where the egg, then from the light, a blue creature with some little parts of yellow and red eyes emerged.

"Yahoo! Free at last, free at last. You moved the digiegg. My name's Veemon, but you can call me Veemon." The creature known as Veemon said as it jumped around Davis.

"Hi, I'm Davis." Davis said in complete shock.

"I've heard of Veemon, supposedly he's a happy, thrill seeking Digimon that brings you good luck. But I thought he was just a legend." Agumon said in absolute disbelief.

"Nope, I'm real alright and I've been waiting a long time to meet you Davis." Veemon said to the still surprised Davis.

"Huh, I think you got the wrong guy." Davis said in complete denial.

"Nope you're the one, because you're the only one able to move the digiegg of courage." Veemon said as Ash found an opening in the cave that no one else found.

"Hey guys, come over here quick." Ash said, calling the others over to the opening to see another egg, but this time it look like a knight's helmet with wings on the back. It had a crest that looked like Ash's necklace, but instead of a silver color, it was violet and it had a star on the shield.

"Another one, well who is this one for?" T.K asked as he wondered who it could belong to. First, T.K tried, but failed. Tai was next, but no such luck. Kari was next, but not even she could move it. That left Davis and Ash.

"Maybe I own both of these eggs." Davis said as he walked to the egg, pulled it, but this time it didn't budge.

"May I try Davis?" Ash said with a sly smirk on his face. Davis, whom was a little mad, backed away from the egg.

"Yeah, knock yourself out." Davis said as Ash bent down, grabbed the egg and pulled it off the ground, symbolizing that it was his egg.

'Wow, so Ash is a digidestined.' Kari thought with blush and a smile on my face. After a few seconds, that same Digimon who was sent by the Emperor crashed through the ceiling of the cave.

"It's a monster!" Davis yelled as Ash looked at Kari.

"Let me guess, a Digimon Kari?" Ash asked as Kari nodded.

"Yeah, it's a Monochromon." Kari said as T.K explains the details of Monochromon.

"Monochromon's shell is as hard a diamond's, it's attack, Volcanic Strike sends out millions of fireballs." T.K said as the other Digimon were ready to fight.

"Boom Bubble! PAH!" Patamon shouted as he inhaled and exhaled a compressed sphere of air, sending it out like a projectile towards Monochromon.

"Pepper Breath!" Agumon said as he sensed out his own fireball at Monochromon, but both attacks didn't even make him flinch.

"Volcanic Strike!" Monochromon yelled as Lavrov came out of his mouth.

"Guys, run!" T.K said as everyone ran out of the cave.

"No way a overgrown fossil's going to hurt my friends." Ash removed a Poke Ball from his belt.

"Davis open the Digi-Egg!" Veemon yelled.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Davis said as Monochromon pursued the two.

"Davis, get down there." Tai told him.

Monochromon's attack shot through the cave and Veemon pushed them towards the ground.

"Davis tell me, what hurts?" Veemon asked.

"Everything but my earlobes."

'I hope everyone's alright?' Ash thought as Tai ran over to Davis.

"Get out of here. It's not safe." Ash noticed Davis getting to his feet. His goggles had been destroyed.

'Davis is a idiot.' T.K. Patamon and Agumon made their way over to him.

"Where are Kari and Gatomon?" Pikachu asked.

"Kari!" Gatomon exclaimed.

"I can't move my ankle." She had twisted it trying to escape.

"I'm going down there." Ash told the others.

"Ash, you're crazy. That Digimon will kill you." Pikachu told him.

"I know that Pikachu, but Kari's hurt and needs my help." He and Pikachu jumped down from the cave ledge.

"We're sitting ducks here!" Tai shouted.

Monochromon charged at the downed Kari.

"Greninja, prepare to use Aerial Ace!" Greninja was about to send Monochromon flying, but the frog Pokemon was beaten to the punch.

"Double Crescent Mirage!" Three blades of light knocked Monochromon off course.
