1st Gate [Video]

[Ken has been here for a little while, has gone through the documents, tried to make sense of things - but honestly, there was only thing he was really worried about.

Or rather, someone. Someone that he knew was with him shortly before he woke up here.]

Wormmon? Wormmon, where are you?

[Because he knows that the Digimon was an over protective little digital insect and wouldn't leave him alone unless something happened.

But Ken couldn't remember what that something would be. He sighs before he suddenly remembers the device in his hands and looks down at it, slightly startled to see that it's apparently recording?

Huh.

Well. He might as well take advantage of it, right?]

Ah, excuse me. My name is Ken Ichijouji and I'm looking for a little green worm called Wormmon. I don't suppose someone has seen him?

...I don't think anyone there would want to work with humans.

I mean, Azulongmon seemed to think we could work together. But a lot of the digimon there really don't like humans at all.

Most of the Digimon that I've seen are normally accepting of humans, unless they've been brainwashed, evil or have some other reason to fear or distrust them.

[ Unfortunately, Ken has given them many reasons to. ]

You've met Azulongmon too?

[Takato suddenly had the feeling that mentioning that he'd climbed on Azulongmon's beard would not be helpful here.]

Yeah, when I was in the digital world. Though I've met Zhuqiaomon more times. He really doesn't like humans at all.

[He shakes his head.]

I've met a few groups that were friendly with humans. But I've also met a lot of digimon who thought our digimon friends were traitors for partnering with us. Or they thought that they could get stronger by taking the data of a tamed digimon.

[It had been starting to get better, because with the D-Reaper everyone had been forced to work together. He often wondered what it was like in the Digital World now. With evolution released, were digimon still trying to delete each other to get stronger? ]

[ Takato. Stop confusing him. ]

What do you mean, 'taking the data'?

Before evolution was released again, a lot of digimon thought that the only waty to become strong enough to evolve was to delete other digimon and absorb their data.

(It upset Takato now to think about how it had been then. And knowing that none of it had been necessary. It wasnt data that made digimon strong.)

[ It takes Ken a long moment to formulate a response. When he does, it's quiet. ]

So they killed each other...

[ His hand clenches into a fist, trying to hide the fact that it was shaking. He knows far to well what it was like to lose a Digimon, only then, it had been because of him and his own stupidity.

And because Wormmon was a far more caring soul then he ever would be.

Then he pauses, when he really thinks about what the other just said to him. ]

But... but how are they reborn then?

[Takato stares at him in complete confusion.]

What? I don't know what you-

[He cuts himself off and drops his gaze to stare sadly at the ground. ]

...Digimon can't be reborn. They can't come back. Not ever.

[Not even Leomon.]

[ Ken's brow furrows, confused as well. ]

That's not -- no. Wormmon did. Wormmon died because of my stupidity and was reborn as a Digi-egg.

[ Unlike Osamu. ]

...He came back?

[But if digimon could come back, what about Leomon? What about Juri? ]

He did. I had to travel to the village where the eggs were and find his with the Crest of Kindness, but Wormmon came back to me.

But... that's impossible. Digimon- No, not a single digimon ever came back. Not even Leomon.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm glad that you were able to get your friend back. But-

[Juri. She was doing better these days. So much better. But even now she was still so sad. And Takato couldn't help but feel that it was partly his fault. If he hadn't gotten her interested in becoming a Tamer, she never would have had to live through all that pain. She never would have lost Leomon.

And if Leomon hadn't been there with Juri, maybe he wouldn't have died.

How was it possible for digimon to come back? And how could he ever tell Juri? If they could come back, then why hadn't Leomon?]

I'm not sure if it was because he was a Chosen Digimon or not, I never asked. I never cared to, I was too happy just to get him back, to get that second chance when I had messed up my first one so very badly.

One of my friends. [Takato stops and then pushes on with the painful explanation.]

Her partner was killed. He never came back.

Oh no....

That's... your friend checked the Village of Beginnings?

[ Ken is hoping that perhaps they just didn't think to check for the egg. ]

What is the village of beginnings?

Where the Digi-eggs are. There's an Elecmon there that guards the village.

But... I've never heard of any place like that. I've never even seen a digiegg outside of the D-Arc.

[ Ken's silent for a very long moment, thinking. ]

I don't... our digi-vices are different. This place tends to pull people from different worlds. Even Hikari-san isn't exactly like the one that I know.

You don't think that perhaps we have two different Digital Worlds?

...Do you think that's possible?

Well, the Digital World is a different world then our own, and then there's this...
