Digital Adventuresby ZeddicusChaptersDiscovering Cyberspace Part 1Discovering Cyberspace Part 2Discovering Cyberspace Part 3Digital Missions Part 1Discovering Cyberspace Part 1Time: 2/4/2022 Location: Ponyville Currently walking the halls of Ponyville High is a young man named Asher Roi. Now, Asher is eighteen years old since he is a senior in high school. He is roughly six feet tall with dark brown skin showing he was Zebrican, he also has green eyes with black hair cut low to his head, he has an average build and is currently dressed in a light green T-shirt with blue jeans and black sneakers as he has his black backpack on his back. "Time for another day of struggles." Asher said to himself as he looked at some of the other students in the halls that shared similar thoughts since Asher wasn't the best student around and his grades proved it but luckily, he was still not close to failing and being held back a grade. "Hey Asher." A familiar voice said from behind him as Asher turned around and quickly saw the pink skinned menace known as Pinkie Pie running up and giving him a big hug as she is wearing a white T-shirt with a pink heart on the chest with a blue knee length frilly skirt with white knee socks and blue sneakers on her feet as her yellow backpack was on her back. "Hey Pinkie." Asher said a bit nervously as Pinkie pressed herself against him as she hugged him and if Asher didn't know better, he would have assumed that Pinkie was pressing her boobs against him on purpose to get a rise out of him both literally and figuratively. "I missed you on winter break. Why did you go and have a good time without me and the other girls?" Pinkie asked teasingly as she stopped hugging Asher and playfully poked his chest. "Pinkie it was just a family get together. Nothing major I promise." Asher said as he was still nervous since Pinkie could be rather intense when it comes to parties. "I'm watching you buster." Pinkie warned as the two of them walked to their class together. Since they did share a few classes and soon enough they were in their seats and taking down notes as the teacher talked. {X} Soon enough lunch time rolled around, and Asher was at lunch sitting with his friends as they are Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, Sunset Shimmer, Fluttershy and Pinkie as the group was just talking and conversing as Asher looked around the cafeteria a bit as he looked on at the other students. Now he knew a few by association to his main friends but every once and a while he would notice a new face. "Girls I'm serious. I did some research and I think I discovered actual proof of life within the internet." Twilight said as she had spent several days surfing the web in order to do some type of research that she was pretty secretive about. "Twilight it's not that we don't believe you but it's more like...The internet isn't something that you can find living things in. The internet in a place for literally anything else you can think of." Sunset said which made Twilight pout a bit. "Fine. I'll prove it after school in the computer lab and then you all will believe me." Twilight said back. "Well, I suppose I could swing by instead of just heading home." Rarity said. "Same here Twi. I'll see what your talkin' about." Applejack said as everyone agreed to stay after school and see for themselves what Twilight was talking about. "Twilight I've got to ask. What made you become so invested in this?" Asher asked. "Well one day I was just exploring websites before I found something that piqued my interest. The thing that got me curious was a bizarre search engine that you can't normally access and after making sure my laptop didn't catch any viruses, I properly investigated the search engine and that is what led me to finding out about digital life forms." Twilight said as Asher hummed in response not sure if he should attend the meeting after school. "Well, I think that is a bit fishy, but I'll still stay after school and support you." Asher said making Twilight smile. "Well, it's settled. After school were all going to meet up in the computer lab and see what our resident egghead is going on about." Rainbow Dash said as everyone agreed with her and then lunch time ended as they went to their classes. {X} The time has come as school day for Ponyville High has concluded as a few after school clubs and sports teams stayed after for various reasons but Asher and the girls remained after school as they were now in one of the schools computer labs as Twilight sat in front of a computer and was typing her way through various websites before she made her way to the bizarre search engine she was looking for as it looked similar to google but it has a monster egg image above the search bar and the name above it said [Digital Dive]. "So, this is where you found those digital things you were talking about?" Pinkie asked as she looked at the website with a critical eye. "Not quite." Twilight said as she clicked on the search bar and typed in [Enter Cyber Space] and then just like that the computer screen showed a series of numbers before they saw a website that looked like a series of ones and zero's scrolling vertically on the website. "This is numerical code and the one's and zero's forms patterns that can be converted into words and phrases and this is how I discovered the digital life forms." Twilight explained but sadly her friends all seemed lost at her explanation. "Twilight we don't know code talk." Sunset said. "It's simple. When I type code into the site, I get responses and with those responses I can trace where that code comes from and when I talk with the beings on this site, I discovered that they come directly from the data and note from a server or computer or something else and that means that I am talking directly to the digital beings behind the data." Twilight explained as she started typing. "Did any of you understand that?" Asher asked the girls. "No." They all responded back. "That's odd." Twilight said as a new screen appeared and it looked like a chat room, but the words were all in code. "What do those numbers mean?" Fluttershy asked. "It's a code puzzle. If I solve it, I will be able to see the information that the code is constantly hiding behind various firewalls." Twilight explained as she started getting to work. "Twilight this sounds a lot like hacking." Sunset said. "Hacking would be if I was using this as a way to hurt people but I am simply looking for information, so it isn't really hacking but information gathering." Twilight said as she stopped typing. "And done." Twilight said as she pushed the enter key and suddenly all the windows, she had opened had all closed at the same time. "Was that supposed to happen?" Rarity asked. "No." Twilight said with a sad moan before a new window opened up as this window didn't have any option to close it or anything as it looked like a series of rainbow colored 8-bit blocks that formed a vortex like look before words in a text box than appeared. Those words were [Digital Gate Opened] and suddenly the camera on the computer activated and blinded the group with a bright light as it quickly scanned all of their bodies before they found themselves unable to move as the computer seemed to radiate a rainbow-colored light as it literally sucked in all the teens as all of them were now within the computer itself and saw a series of randomized code numbers and colors. {X} Location: N/A "Ow my head." Asher said as he opened his eyes and saw that he wasn't in the computer lab anymore and instead he sat up and saw that he is in some type of forest that didn't look like any kind of forest he has ever seen before. "What the hell?" Asher asked as he also felt something in his pocket and when he reached in and took out the object, he saw that it was some type of device he wasn't familiar with as it was a hand size rectangular device with various buttons on it as well as a keychain attachment. It also has a small screen near the top of it and the thing was a solid red color with the buttons being a dark green and the sides being white. "What is this thing and where am I?" Asher asked as he decided to walk around a bit unaware that he was being watched. Author's Note Okay it has been a while since I have been on this site, and I am super sorry about that, but I am back and with a new story that I hope everyone will like. So, please show support for this story. Discovering Cyberspace Part 2Time: 2/4/2022 Location: [N/A] Currently walking around the bizarre forest was Asher as he had no idea where he was going or where he was exactly as he didn't find any noticeable landmarks in sight or anything before, he heard a shriek. "That sounds like Twilight." Asher said before he ran towards the shriek and soon enough, he came upon Twilight still in her school clothes with her glasses still on her face and she was hugging some sort of...Monster. "Twilight." Asher said getting her attention. "Asher your here too? I thought I was dreaming or something when I woke up here and found this cute little guy." Twilight said as she looked at the being in her arms. "I'm not cute. My name is Mochimon and I was trying to warn you about the danger you're in before you suddenly grabbed me." Mochimon said making Asher chuckle a bit. "Sorry but Twilight can't help herself sometimes when it comes to not following certain social cues." Asher said with a teasing smile as Twilight simply sticked her tongue out at him. "Sorry about the random hug. Now what were you saying about danger?" Twilight asked as she put Mochimon down onto the ground. "I saw you suddenly appear out of the sky and since you don't look powerful or anything I wanted to warn you that powerful digimon roam the area and an especially nasty digimon is trying to establish this place as his territory." Mochimon said confusing the two teens. "Sorry but what's a digimon?" Asher asked before the three of them suddenly heard a loud roar and some tree's tumbling near them as they looked to the left and saw a massive digimon fly into the air as this digimon was a fearsome insect type digimon. "That's Kabuterimon. We need to run away before he notices us." Mochimon quickly said as Twilight and Asher both didn't argue or look back as they followed the in-training digimon deeper into the forest even as they heard something like a explosion behind them as they soon came up to an area that looks like it was made out of building blocks for a baby as the towers and trees in this area were actually made up of blocks and the ground changed from hard ground to a soft quilt like floor. "Hello there and welcome to Primary Village." A new voice said as Twilight and Asher both saw another monster coming up to them but oddly enough this one had more of a human female appearance. "Welcome back Mochimon. I trust you aren't planning on exploring the outside once again." The humanoid being said with a ruffle of her wings that were behind her back. "I'm sorry Angewomon but while I was outside, I found these weird digimon and they didn't know the area so I thought that I should help them." Mochimon said as he put his head down a bit. "Where not...Digimon where humans actually and we don't know how we got here." Twilight said as the ultimate level digimon looked at Twilight and Asher for a moment or at least it seemed like she did since she had a helmet like item over half her face. "I can assure you that I already know of your situation. Another strange being had informed me after she woke up here in primary village." Angewomon said peeking Twilight's and Asher's curiosity. "Although I assumed you were a tamer given the fact that all of you seem to have digivices." Angewomon said. "Is that what these things are?" Twilight asked as she held her digivice out as hers was a lavender and light pink mix of colors. "Yes, but I shouldn't be the one explaining this. Please follow me." Angewomon said as the three of them followed behind the ultimate digimon for a good bit of time as Twilight and Asher both noticed the layout of the area and the large number of cribs and eggs all over the place as well as other digimon roaming around. "Fluttershy?" Both Twilight and Asher asked in shock as they say Fluttershy in a large area of cribs as she was holding a digimon as if it was a baby. "Twilight and Asher. Your both here too? I thought this was some sort of bizarre dream." Fluttershy said as the digimon she was holding started crying. "It's okay Wanyamon." Fluttershy said as Twilight and Asher rushed over to her. "Fluttershy has been helping us out after she woke up. Now I explained this to her, but I will tell all of you that a few tamers will be paying us a visit soon and that is your best bet on getting help." Angewomon said before a thought came to Asher's mind. "But what about the other girls? There still out there somewhere." Asher said. "I'm sorry but they will have to find a way to make it to primary village in order to be helped and I can't spare any help at the moment." Angewomon said sadly. "But they won't know about this place. We have to bring them here." Twilight said back. "What if we brought them here?" Asher asked. "I would have no issue with that, but the issue would be on finding them in the first place without being harmed." Angewomon said. As she had no issue with more visitors, but she doubted they could find their friends without being harmed. "We'll find a way. I can't just leave the girls out there alone without knowing that help is coming." Asher said in a serious tone of voice making Twilight and Fluttershy smile at his words. "I'm going with you." Twilight said bravely. "Angewomon would it be alright if I went with them to find our friends?" Fluttershy asked. "Of course. I wish all of you the best of luck." Angewomon said before Fluttershy put Wanyamon in his crib as Angewomon led them both to the same exit/entrance they came through as they saw a visual distortion that showed the outside forest. "Alright we'll find the girls and bring them back here where it's safe." Asher said as he felt nervous but didn't back down. "Right." Twilight and Fluttershy both said at once before they all heard a noise. "Wait." Two voices said as they turned around and saw both Mochimon and Wanyamon coming up towards them. "What do you two think you're doing?" Angewomon asked in a stern tone of voice. "They don't know how things work here. We want to go and help them." Wanyamon said bravely even though her eyes were still red and puffy from the earlier tears. "Yeah, they need help." Mochimon said as well. "We appreciate it, but you guys should stay here where its safe." Fluttershy said. "No way. You guys aren't going without us and if we don't go with you guys' things will get ugly and you also don't know how to avoid the more dangerous areas, so you actually do need our help." Mochimon said as the three humans couldn't actually argue with that logic as Angewomon sighed in response. "If that is truly what you both want to do than I won't stop you, but you have to come back and stay close to your new friends." Angewomon said as both digimon nodded their heads in agreement. "Alright guys. Let's go out and find our friends." Asher said as they walked towards the distortion and re-entered the forest and began their search. {X} Currently near a lake and just waking up is the fashionista known as Rarity as she sat up and took in her surroundings with shock and confusion. "This day really went downhill fast." Rarity said as she took in a deep breath and remained calm and composed as she prided herself on her ability to remain calm under pressure as she simply stood up and dusted herself off a bit before she noticed something in her skirt pocket as she than took it out and saw her own digivice as it is a dark blue color with purple secondary colors. "What is this?" Rarity asked as she started messing around with the buttons and discovered that she could changes the features of the device according to the screen images that she saw. "A watch, some sort of radar, a calendar, a GPS...Wait a GPS." Rarity said as she stayed on the GPS setting and discovered multi-colored dots on the small map she saw. "If I go to one of these markers, I could find help." Rarity said as she began heading towards the closet marker and after several minute of walking, she came up to another friendly face. "Applejack." Rarity said with cheer as she ran up to the farm girl that stopped moving through the dirt path she found as she looked over and saw Rarity as the two of them quickly hugged and separated from each other as Rarity took notice of Applejack's digivice that was attached to her belt as her digivice was a deep yellow color with light red secondary colors. "Howdy Rarity. I reckon were in deep trouble." Applejack said as she looked around at the forest, they were in. "I have no clue where we are or how we even got here. Or what this thing is?" Applejack said as she grabbed her device but left it on her belt. "I think these devices might help us actually. Now I discovered this thing has a GPS and it led me right to you so maybe we can use this device to find the others and figure out where we are and how to get back home." Rarity said before they both heard someone scream as they quickly ran over and ducked into some nearby bushes before they saw the scene as they saw monsters fighting as two monsters were knocked a much larger monster. The two digimon on the ground where Betamon and Lalamon as they are both rookie level digimon and the champion they were fighting was none other than Kabuterimon as it let out a loud hissing noise after it swatted away both rookie digimon. "Lalamon are you okay?" Betamon asked with worry for his friend. "I'm fine. But you need to run while I hold off Kabuterimon." Lalamon said bravely. "What?" Betamon asked in confusion. "Nut Shoot." Lalamon said as she fired a series of seeds from her mouth at Kabuterimon but the attack didn't even get registered to the massive insect. "We don't stand a chance." Betamon said in fear as Applejack and Rarity looked on at the scene and as Rarity didn't know what to do. Applejack acted without a second thought as she saw Kabuterimon ready its attack. "Electro Shocker." Kabuterimon said unleashing a ball of electricity at the rookie digimon but at the last second Applejack quickly grabbed both rookie digimon and dived behind several bushes as the electric ball hit the ground and kicked up a massive amount of dust and created a sizable hole in the ground as Kabuterimon looked around for the data from the destroyed rookies but found none as he then took to the air and started flying around. "Are you insane?" Rarity asked as she quickly ran up towards Applejack as she and the digimon rose from their hiding spots. "Sorry Rarity but I couldn't just let that fella kill these things." Applejack said. "Thank you for helping us." Lalamon said as the small group stood up and looked at each other respectively. "Don't mention it. Why was that thing trying to do you both in?" Applejack asked. "Kabuterimon is establishing its territory and is trying to kill every digimon it finds in order to get strong enough to digivolve." Betamon said as Applejack and Rarity didn't understand the explanation at all. "Still, we owe you for saving us so if you need anything just let us know." Betamon said. "Well. Have either of you seen anyone else like us around here?" Rarity asked. "We'll Angewomon would know. She is in primary village and would tell you if other digimon like you were around." Lalamon said. "We aren't monsters like you think we are, but we'd be mighty grateful if you could show us to this Angewomon person you're going on about." Applejack said as the four of them started heading towards primary village unaware of the group that had left to search for Rarity and Applejack. {X} "How did we end up here?" A voice asked as the trio of Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Sunset Shimmer had managed to escape the forest and came up to what looked like a beach. "We were wandering around aimlessly. Duh." Pinkie said making Rainbow Dash hum in slight agitation. "I didn't mean literally." Rainbow Dash said as Sunset simply sighed. "We are totally lost and now we find out that we are actually on an island." Sunset said before they all heard some sort of rumbling sound as Rainbow and Sunset both looked around before noticing that the rumbling was just Pinkie's stomach. "Sorry. I'm a little hungry." Pinkie said with a sheepish smile. "Well, I guess we should find some food and figure out how these things work." Sunset said as she held out her digivice as hers was a dark orange with light red secondary colors. Rainbow Dash's digivice was a light blue color with yellow secondary colors and Pinkie's was a bright pink with light blue secondary colors as Sunset than began messing around with her digivice for a bit as she tried figuring out how the thing worked. "My vote is for food." Pinkie said as she looked up at a nearby tree and saw that it was a banana tree or at least it seemed like one even though the bananas where an angry red color. "Pinkie we don't know what those things are so we shouldn't mess with them." Rainbow Dash said making Pinkie moan sadly as she dramatically fell to her knees and started drawing circles in the ground with her finger. "I'm going to starve." Pinkie sad sadly as Rainbow simply rolled her eyes at her friend's antics. "Girls...Do you hear that?" Sunset asked as they all heard some rumbling near the water and some buzzing as they quickly hid behind some bushes and saw two digimon appear as one came from the sky while the second came from the ocean as digimon rising from the ocean was a Seadramon while the one from the air was none other than Kabuterimon as the battle started and the girls had a front row seat to it as Kabuterimon actually grabbed Seadramon by its head and lifted it into the air and out of the water after evading Seadramon's Ice Arrow attack and when it was high enough the Kabuterimon let it go and while it fell the insect digimon fired its Electro Shocker attack dealing big damage to the champion digimon before it collided with the ground kicking up massive dust and nearly blinded the girls as they were silent as Kabuterimon quickly capitalized on its chance as it impaled the serpent with its horn and in a quick moment the massive digimon was decapitated before it burst into blue shards of digital data that the Kabuterimon quickly absorbed into itself before it flew off. "What was all of that?" Rainbow Dash asked in slight fear of what she saw. "I don't know but I think it's best that we avoid this beach for a while and try to find a different way to leave this island were on." Sunset said as Rainbow Dash and Pinkie were quick to agree as they wandered back into the forest as they kept a close eye on the skies. {X} Currently the group of Asher, Twilight, and Fluttershy were heading north as Mochimon and Wanyamon acted as their guides. However, they had a bit of a hard time focusing with all the noises they heard around them and the uneasy feeling that they were being watched by something. "Alright we need to cut through here but be careful. Snimon and other digimon use this area as a hunting ground." Mochimon said as they carefully started moving. "Mochimon how do you know that?" Twilight asked. "I like to explore sometimes even though I shouldn't. We also need to hurry." Mochimon said as the group started moving before Fluttershy suddenly tripped over a rock and fell causing the group to look back and see that she not only fell but suddenly the trees near her where cut as they saw a Snimon as it completely blended in with the forest and let out a massive roar of anger terrifying the group. Soon enough the group was running away from the deadly champion digimon as it tried slicing the teens and in-training digimon to pieces. "Nut Shoot. Water Shot" Two voices said as a jet of water and a series of seeds hit Snimon right in the face making it back up a bit as the teens saw their friends Applejack and Rarity with the digimon Lalamon and Betamon. "Applejack. Rarity." Twilight said as the two groups soon became one. "It's great to see ya'll again but now ain't the time for a reunion." Applejack said as Snimon regained its senses and let out another roar. "Don't worry. We'll take him down." Lalamon said confidently. "Are you sure we can't talk things out?" Rarity asked before Snimon raised both its arms and sent them both straight down as it unleashed its attack. "Twin Sickles" Snimon said as its bladed arms released a blade shaped shockwave towards the group. "Nut Shoot. Water Shot" Both Lalamon and Betamon unleashed their attacks as Betamon breathed out a jet of water as Lalamon released a series of seeds as they aimed at the shockwave and caused it to explode as Snimon stomped through the smoke caused from the explosion as Mochimon and Wanyamon decided to charge at him. "Wanyamon. Mochimon." Twilight and Fluttershy both cried out as they saw Snimon about to brutally kill the in-training digimon before both there digivices lit up and both in-training digimon were quickly surrounded by digital codes of ones and zeros. "Wanyamon digivolve to...Gaomon" "Mochimon digivolve to...Wormmon" "Sticky Net. Gao Rush" The newly evolved rookie digimon attacked as Wormmon spat out a sticky adhesive web like substance that covered Snimon's face as Gaomon let loose a rapid series of punches at Snimon's head knocking it back as it was caught off guard by the newly evolved digimon. "What was that?" Asher asked in shock at what he saw. "They digivolved. Now we should take the moment too run." Lalamon said as nobody questioned it as they started running away from Snimon as it desperately tried to get the sticky webs off its head. Author's Note Another chapter done and I want it to be known that digivolution routes aren't preset or anything so expect new evolution lines for certain digimon since that is how digimon works anyway. Discovering Cyberspace Part 3Time: 2/4/2022 Location: [N/A] Currently moving through the massive forest and hiding from some of the wandering digimon is the group of Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie as they had to occasionally stop and hide from the digimon. "What the hell kind of a place is this?" Rainbow Dash asked as they carefully moved. "I don't know but we need to hurry and figure it out." Sunset said before they heard footsteps behind them. "Who's there?" Pinkie asked as they saw an admittedly cute digimon poke his head out of a sizeable bush as this digimon is Tukaimon. Now if it was any other digimon the girls might have been scared but honestly the girls just seemed a bit underwhelmed. "Who are you and what are you doing in my territory?" Tukaimon asked in an upset voice, but the tension was all but gone. "Sorry little guy we aren't trying to intrude or anything but where kind of lost." Pinkie said as she walked up to the rookie level digimon. "Who are you calling little? I'm a being of darkness and evil. You should fear me." Tukaimon said with an upset look on his face. "I hate to break it to you dude but your way too cute to be threatening." Sunset said making Tukaimon snarl in anger. "Fluffy Attack." Tukaimon said as it propelled itself up and forward in the air with its wings before basically headbutting Pinkie and knocking her to the ground as Pinkie quickly got up and rubbed her very sore nose as Tukaimon hovered in the air. "Owie. That hurt." Pinkie said as Tukaimon's attack wasn't very strong given its soft body, but it still had some sting to it since it nearly gave her a bloody nose. "Punt." Rainbow Dash quickly said as she used her speed to run up to Tukaimon and kicked him which sent him flying towards the right and deep into the forest as they heard him crash into some bushes. "And don't come back unless you apologize to Pinkie!" Rainbow Dash shouted before she started checking Pinkie over to make sure nothing else was hurt. "Well, that was a bizarre experience. We should keep moving." Sunset said before they heard some more footsteps from behind Sunset as the girls looked stunned at who they saw as Sunset turned around and looked at the first two humans they discovered in this bizarre place. "What are you two doing here?" Sunset asked the two familiar faces with total shock and confusion in her voice. {X} Meanwhile the group of Asher, Twilight, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity, Lalamon, Wormmon, Betamon and Gaomon were hiding behind a series of trees as they all caught their breath from running away from the Snimon as Wormmon has just finished explaining digital evolution to them as well. "So normally you need to gather more digital data in order to digivolve but you suddenly gained the data out of nowhere?" Twilight asked as she was a bit confused but was getting a grasp over the subject easily enough. "That is correct." Wormmon said nodding his head. "It must have been because we wanted to protect you guys." Gaomon said honestly as that was the only thing that came to his mind as he thought about why he suddenly digivolved out of nowhere. "Also, when it happened. These things gave off some sort of light and started making beeping noises." Asher said as he held up his digivice. "They did? I didn't notice." Fluttershy said as she held her own device. "What are these things anyway?" Applejack asked as she held her digivice before they heard some footsteps nearby making them get ready to run again. "I believe we can answer that." A familiar voice said as the group looked towards the right where the noise came from as they saw none other than Dean Cadance wearing a light pink and white business suit with a knee length skirt and dress shoes as she had her own dark pink and gold digivice in her right hand and standing next to her was the digimon Lovelyangemon. "Cadance? How did you get here?" Twilight asked in total shock and confusion. "I can explain that, but I think it would be better to talk about it in primary village with your friends." Cadance said with a smile as the group was just very confused before they followed Cadance and the mega level digimon back to primary village where they found Sunset, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie along with the school principals Celestia and Luna as they are both dressed as professionally as Cadance was. "Okay what is going on here?" Asher asked as they all gathered around as Celestia spoke. "Well, I will explain things as best as I can. Now we are all currently within the digital world better known as Cyberspace and this world is populated by digital based beings known as digimon. Honestly nobody truly knows how long this world has existed, but it was only when the internet was first created that digimon were able to interact with our world and vice versa. Now people for years have gone back and forth to the digital world by internet connections and computers and when it happens, they are given these devices called digivices. These digivices are used as conduits for people to bound with digimon as well as help them evolve into stronger forms when the situation arises and the digimon met certain criteria necessary for evolution." Celestia said as she began explaining everything she knew about the digital world, and everything involved in it. {X} "Principal Celestia. This is a lot to take in." Twilight said as everyone's heads was spinning from her explanation. "These devices are super important and can be used as storage devices for digital creatures depending on how much memory it has?" Sunset asked as she looked over her digivice as she began messing around with it. "We understand this is a lot and it is rather confusing. Honestly it took us a long time to learn this much when we first got here." Cadance said with a casual shrug. "Speaking of that. How did the three of you get here?" Asher asked. "Well, we are members of a worldwide hacker group known as Digital Savers and as members we help protect the digital world from danger as well as putting a stop to some evil hackers that abuse digimon and what not." Luna said confusing the group even more. "That can be explained more in our world so let's head home. Cadance, can you handle that wild Kabuterimon alone?" Celestia asked. "It's no problem." Lovelyangemon said with cheer. "Don't worry Celestia. Kabuterimon won't be any trouble." Cadance said with a smile of her own. "Great. Now time to open a digital gate and take these students home." Luna said as she changed the settings on her digivice before she created a circular rainbow-colored portal in the air in front of her. "This is a digital gate, and this will be able to take us home" Luna explained. "Wait. What about our new friends?" Fluttershy asked as she looked down at Gaomon. "Well, if they want to come with us than they need to be digitized and downloaded into your digivices." Luna said as there was a awkward silence before the digimon said who they wanted to go with as Wormmon went with Twilight. Gaomon went with Fluttershy, Lalamon went with Applejack, and Betamon went with Rarity. "Alright. Let's head home." Asher said before they all walked through the portal and soon rematerialized in the real world and in the very same computer lab they were in before they transported themselves into the digital world. {X} Time: 2/6/2022 Location: Ponyville High It had been two days since the group had ventured into the digital world as Asher is currently walking towards his next class as the events of the digital world still stayed in his mind. "Asher." A voice said from behind him as he turned around and saw Fluttershy coming up to him as she was slightly out of breath. "Fluttershy what's wrong?" Asher asked with concern. "The principals want to have a word with us, and I was told to come get you." Fluttershy explained as Asher didn't need to ask for any details as he knew what the conversation would be about, so he didn't hesitate to follow Fluttershy as they headed towards the principal's office as he saw the other six girls and the two principals in the room as Asher closed the door after Fluttershy came into the room. "So, now that you are all here, we would like to discuss things with you." Celestia said as they knew what she was referring to. "I would like to take this time to apologize for hacking into cyberspace with the school's computer." Twilight said with her head down. "Frankly your lucky you aren't in any trouble for your actions but given the severity of the situation we are overlooking it this time, but we won't overlook it again Twilight." Luna said sternly as Twilight kept her mouth shut and simply nodded her head. "Now than. Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack we are aware that you each have spent some time with the digimon that have been downloaded into your digivices. So, what are your opinions of them?" Celestia asked them. "Well, Wormmon is nice and helpful. I had a rather difficult time explaining his existence to my family after he suddenly materialized during dinner but otherwise Wormmon is basically a close friend at this point." Twilight said honestly. "I feel the same, but Gaomon is still a secret as far as my family is concerned." Fluttershy said. "I'm with Shy on this one. If my family saw Lalamon my brother would have grabbed his shotgun and started blastin' without asking questions." Applejack said bluntly. "I thought he got rid of his gun after that hunting accident." Rainbow Dash said as Applejack shrugged. "He did but he had another one on hand to scare away thugs and folks who try to steal from the farm or tip over cows and what not." Applejack said back. "Betamon has been rather pleasant company and my family was a bit shocked when he materialized for no reason but after a lot of convincing, they began to warm up to him." Rarity said as Celestia let out a sigh. "Well, it is good to hear that the digimon have been adjusting nicely. However, I must inform all of you that the digimon shouldn't materialize so abruptly or else it would cause problems." Celestia said as the girls all agreed with her. "Now with that out of the way we can move on to what we truly wanted to talk about. Now all of you are fantastic students and since we can trust all of you, we were wondering if you would like to join us as Digital Savers?" Celestia asked shocking all of them as they were silent for a long moment of time. "Principal Celestia I am not saying no but I have to ask why are you inviting us into this group?" Asher asked with curiosity. "Because despite how widespread we are. The Digital Savers are constantly shorthanded and outnumbered by our enemies, evil digimon and our own members who chose to turn down a darker path." Luna said as Asher thought about what he wanted to say before one of the girls spoke up. "I'm in." Sunset said with a cocky smile. "What?" Rainbow Dash asked in shock. "What do you mean what? This is super exciting and a rare opportunity. There's no way I'm passing this up." Sunset said as the girls and Asher where all a bit shocked by Sunset's boldness but quickly got over it. "I'm in too." Pinkie said before she stood tall and gave a military salute. "Soldier Pinkie Pie reporting for duty." Pinkie said as if she was a real soldier making Celestia sigh with a reluctant smile. Soon enough even though they were unsure all the girls and Asher himself agreed to join the Digital Savers. "Wonderful. Now we will form a after school club to cover your duties in the real world and in the digital world. However, you all must know that the dangers you will be facing will be very real and you shouldn't take this job lightly because one wrong move could mean certain death." Luna said in a deadly serious tone of voice. "We understand ma'am and we won't let either of you down." Asher said. "Good. We will give you all time before we take you all back to the digital world. So, for now rest up and prepare yourselves for your roles in helping protect and save the digital world." Celestia said before they all left the office and headed towards there various classrooms. Author's Note Not much to be said here other than please leave a review and tell me what you people and ponies think. P.S: Positive reviews motivate me to write. Digital Missions Part 1Time: 2/13/2022 Location: Ponyville High Currently walking the halls of Ponyville High is Asher and Pinkie Pie as she was practically skipping across the halls in a good mood as today is the day that the group is meeting in the computer lab as today is the first day of the 'Cyber Technicians' club which served as a cover for their new jobs as members of the Digital Savers group. "Asher aren't you excited? This is going to be so much fun." Pinkie said with a smile as Asher wore one of his own. "Yeah, I guess I am a bit excited." Asher said with a nervous chuckle. "But I am also trying to remain calm and safe while were doing this Digital Saver stuff." Asher said as the two of them walked towards the computer lab together until they saw the other girls and principal Luna waiting for them. "Good your all here. It's time for us to depart for your first mission." Luna said before Twilight spoke up. "What do you mean by our first mission?" Twilight asked with slight worry. "Well, you all are going to be tested as new members of the Digital Savers and we will be warping towards the Digital Savers main hub in the digital world. That is all you need to know for now. So, let's go and pay close attention as I show all of you how to open a digital gate." Luna said as she took out her digivice and put it on the proper setting before aiming the screen at a computer. "Digital gate open." Luna said before her digivice glowed a bright color before she was surrounded by thousands of ones and zeros that soon faded away and showed that she no longer stood in the room. "Well, I guess were next." Pinkie said with cheer before she readied her digivice and did the same as Luna as she warped herself to the digital world as the other teens did the same as well. {X} Time: 2/13/2022 Location: File Island "Whoa." Asher said as he materialized on the digital island that had threatened his life several days ago or more specifically, he was near the entrance of Primary Village as he saw the other girls and Luna waiting. "It looks like we are all here. Now the mission you all are going on is to help take care of the in-training digimon" Luna said to the group taking them a bit off guard but nobody complained as they made their way into Primary Village and after talking with Angewomon the group was spread out and helping the in-training digimon in various way. "No." A grumpy Pagumon said as Asher tried giving him a bottle of milk, he got from the cooking area of the village. "If you don't drink it you won't grow up big and strong." Asher said to the grumpy digimon. Soon enough though the Pagumon started drinking his milk as Asher heard footsteps behind him which made him turn around and see Angewomon. "Sorry about Pagumon. He can be a handful." Angewomon said before Asher put him down in an empty crib. "It's fine. Besides helping this place out in anyway is an awesome experience." Asher said as he and the girls were enjoying the 'mission' they were assigned to. "I'm glad to hear that. Now since you are helping, I do require your help in a rather important matter." Angewomon said making Asher curious a bit. "Now a handful on in-training digimon like to wander around but one of them hasn't returned and I am worried it has gotten lost. So, I am hoping that you or your friends could look for young Tsumemon." Angewomon said with clear worry in her voice. "Don't worry. We'll find Tsumemon for you." Asher said as the ultimate digimon gave a kind smile. "Thank you. Now some of the newly evolved digimon volunteered to help before they set out into the world so I will gather them now." Angewomon said as she went to gather the rookie digimon while Asher told the girls the situation as the group that would go to help would be the group of Asher, Pinkie, Sunset and Rainbow Dash. "Alright now we just have to wait." Asher said and soon enough Angewomon showed up along with the digimon that would be helping them as these three digimon were Psychemon, Renamon and Agumon. "I wish you all the best of luck and please stay safe." Angewomon said as the large group exited Primary Village and started to wander around the island in searh of Tsumemon. {X} "So, in your world you get to taste all kinds of yummy foods?" Psychemon asked in wonder as she stuck close to Pinkie Pie. "Yup and I even have a part time job at a place that makes the best food ever." Pinkie said making Psychemon's eyes widen in awe. "I wanna go to your world so bad and eat the yummy food." Psychemon said as she was jumping up and down as they walked. "Psychemon you've got to calm down. You're going to give away our position." Renamon said with a sigh. "It's like we have to deal with two versions of Pinkie Pie now." Rainbow Dash said with a sigh of her own as Asher and Sunset simple chuckled at the thought. "Come on Rainbow. It isn't that bad." Sunset said as she kept an eye own for the in-training digimon. "Agumon are you sure this is the right direction?" Asher asked as they walked through thick bushes and vines hanging off trees. "I'm positive. Besides this path will let us avoid some of the more dangerous digimon on the island." Agumon said with a smile of his own as they moved before they all heard a scream. "That was Tsumemon." Renamon quickly said as she rushed towards the sound along with the rest of the group as they soon came up to a clearing where they saw Tsumemon who was clearly scared and shaking at the digimon in front of him as this digimon was Snimon but shockingly in between the two of them was none other than Tukaimon who was looking rather beat up. "Tsumemon stay back." Renamon said as she, Agumon and Psychemon ran up to him and stood bravely in front of him. "What are you guys doing here?" Tukaimon asked in confusion before he evaded a sickle strike that hit the ground. "Where saving you and Tsumemon. Pepper Breath." Agumon said as he fired a fireball from his mouth towards Snimon. "Colored Spark. Diamond Storm." Both Psychemon and Renamon also launched attacks at the Snimon as Psychemon launched colored sparks off electricity from its mouth while Renamon had sharp and glowing leaves appear in front of her that rocketed towards the Snimon as all the attacks hit their mark which made Snimon back up into a tree for a moment. The Snimon in his panic went to rush the rookie level digimon who attacked with another series of projectiles as the Snimon's head caught fire as it flailed around in a panic for a bit before rolling around on the dirt to put itself out as it proceeded to run away. "That was awesome." Rainbow Dash said as she rushed up to Renamon. "Seriously you guys just rushed in and totally saved the day." Rainbow Dash said as the others also rushed to the scene. "Yeah, you digimon totally kicked butt." Pinkie said as Sunset went over towards the Tukaimon. "So, Mr. Evil how did you get mixed up in all of this?" Sunset asked as Tukaimon just grumbled under his breath. "I'm sorry but I didn't quite hear you." Sunset said teasingly as Tukaimon slightly blushed. "I said that Tsumemon looked pathetic when he's scared so I had to do something to help and make him stop crying." Tukaimon said as he tried to act tough and evil before Sunset scoped him up. "Hey let me go." Tukaimon said with protest before his hurt wings made him wince in pain. "Your, in bad shape little guy and leaving you here to be killed wouldn't sit right with me. Besides you still owe Pinkie an apology." Sunset said in a way that Tukaimon couldn't argue with as the group made their way back to Primary Village. {X} "Thank you for bringing back, Tsumemon. All of you have been a big help." Angewomon said to the group of humans and digimon as they entered the village and got Tsumemon put into his crib where he took a well needed nap. "It was no trouble." Asher said with a smile of his own. "Yeah, it was a memorable experience after all." Sunset said before Angewomon spoke once more. "I'm sure it was but there is something these digimon have told me about your little mission. Now these digimon where given a choice about wanting to leave out into the world or remain here and they all said that they would like to go with all of you as your digital partners." Angewomon said which shocked the group. "Does that include Tukaimon?" Sunset asked as the little guy was coming up towards them on the ground and with bandages over his wings as he was the last digimon to show up to this little meeting. "That is correct." Angewomon said looking down at the stubborn and prideful digimon as he scoffed. "Staying here is lame and you jerks wouldn't survive without me helping you so I'm being a digital partner so I can make sure you all don't do anything stupid." Tukaimon said with his head turned as he didn't look at the group. "We are going to have to do something about that attitude of your but before you come with us. You are going to apologise to my friend for attacking her." Sunset said in a serious tone of voice as Tukaimon looked over at Pinkie. "I'm sorry for hitting you." Tukaimon said stubbornly. "Swallowing that much pride must taste pretty bitter." Psychemon said with a smile as Tukaimon practically hissed at Psychemon. "So, are you guys sure you want to come with us?" Asher asked as he looked down at Agumon. "Yup. Sticking around you guys seems pretty interesting." Agumon said back. "I agree. Besides tamers go all over the place to fix problems so this sounds like the perfect adventure." Renamon said as she crossed her arms. "I want to taste all the yummy food." Psychemon said as she was practically drooling at the thought and soon enough the digimon were bonded to their new tamers as Agumon went into Asher's digivice, Renamon went into Rainbow Dash's digivice, Psychemon went with Pinkie and Tukaimon went with Sunset as the rest of the human group rejoined the group off Asher, Pinkie, Sunset and Rainbow Dash before they rematerialized in the human world. {X} Time: 2/14/2022 Location: Equestria City "Asher it's time to wake up." Asher's mother said as she entered the room as Asher's mother had light brown skin with black hair combed down to her chin, brown eyes with a slim frame and is currently wearing a pair of sweatpants and a matching hoodie. Her name is Clover Roi and currently she is shocked and scared as she saw a child sized dinosaur in her son's room as she then let out a massive scream that woke Asher from his sleep and after a long explanation Clover managed to calm down and began talking with the friendly reptile as Asher entered the home kitchen in a simple black T-shirt with blue jeans and sneakers on. "Agumon you can't just realize into the real world like that." Asher said as he looked at his digital partner who was currently being given stale homemade bread thanks to his mother. "But I was bored." Agumon said as he was enjoying the bread without a care as Asher just gave a sigh in response. "It is too early for all of this." Asher said as his mother looked at him. "If that's the case then why are you fully dressed and ready to go outside?" Clover asked. "Because I promised Fluttershy I would help her out at the animal shelter. Come on Agumon." Asher said as he held out his digivice and Agumon became a series of digital ones and zeros that got absorbed into the digivice. "I'll catch you later mom." Asher said as he exited the house and made his way towards the nearby animal shelter on foot since it was within walking distance before he felt his digivice vibrate as he grabbed it from within his pocket and saw a message on it. [Email] From: Pinks69@Email.com [Subject: Did you know?] Did you know you can use this digivice to send emails? I already told the girls and now I'm telling you. This is awesome. [End of Email] "Huh. These things have a lot of functions." Asher said as he walked for roughly an hour and twenty minutes before coming towards the animal shelter where he saw Fluttershy outside waiting for him as she was wearing a basic white T-shirt with jean short and brown sneakers as she also had her backpack on her back with her digivice attached to it. "Asher you made it on time." Fluttershy said as Asher walked up to her. "Yeah, I just had to wake up early and get a head start on things." Asher said as they entered the building together. "Oh. Sorry I didn't mean to inconvenience you." Fluttershy said nervously. "Fluttershy I'm just messing with you. I'm cool and I want to help out." Asher said to her as she smiled a bit as her long hair covered the smile. "Well again I want to say thanks for coming. Some of the volunteers have been scared to help after a few rescue dogs started getting aggressive." Fluttershy said before they stopped at the main desk where Asher had to sign in and get everything situated before he was allowed to help and soon enough, he was helping to feed and take care of the animals. "Hey there little guy. You don't seem so bad." Asher said as he was talking to a small brown furred pit bull as he was brushing his fur as they dog just panted and enjoyed the treatment. "Asher do you need some help?" Fluttershy asked as she stopped in front of them in the hallway lined with barking dogs in cages as she carried a large bag of dog food. "I'm fine Shy. Actually, I should ask if you need help since that dog food looks a bit heavy." Asher said looking at Fluttershy struggle a bit. "I've got it. Thanks for asking though." Fluttershy said as the two of them continued helping out around the animal shelter before both of their digivices vibrated. [Email] From: AnonYmous101@Email.Ney [Subject: Digital Savers Membership] Hello, you can call me Anon and I have heard from Luna and Celestia that you have proven your loyalty to our cause but there are members that say otherwise so you are being given a mission. Asher and Fluttershy you both are being given a mission to stop a rogue hacker in your city. You cannot be helped by your friends, or your membership is forfeit. You have until the end of the day to stop him in cyberspace. I have uploaded the details to your digivices. Best of luck. [End of Email] "What?" Fluttershy asked in confusion as she looked at her digivices screen within the breakroom along with Asher. "So, we have to complete a trial by fire, and we have to do it alone." Asher said as he looked at Fluttershy before he walked up to her and spoke. "It's going to be alright Shy. We can do this, and we don't even have to fight the guy since all we have to do is destroy the virus he created in the digital world." Asher said as he looked at the details of the mission as they had to destroy a virus filled digimon. Now the details did explain that digimon don't really die but are reformed back into digi-eggs but to Fluttershy that was still something hard to ask of her. "I know but...I don't know if I can willfully hurt a creature and end its existence." Fluttershy said as Asher spoke up once more. "Fluttershy you don't have to do this. You can back out of all of this if you want to. The girls and I aren't trying to force you to join this group or anything." Asher said. "I understand that but...Backing out feels like a betrayal and I don't want to hold all of you back by having to worry about me with all of this digital stuff...So, I'll help but I'm still unsure if I can go through with this." Flutteryshy said with honesty. "Fluttershy you are too pure for this world." Asher said making Fluttershy blush a bit. "No, I'm not. Let's just do this mission please." Fluttershy said as she tried to sound tough but to Asher it was just a cute attempt to mimic Rainbow Dash. "Alright let's go to my place and we can use the computer I have at home to enter the digital world." Asher said as they two of them sighed out of volunteering at the shelter as they walked back to Asher's place where he did need to take some time to rest his legs before the both of them went over to the desktop computer in the living room where they opened a digital gate and entered the digital world. "Alright kids I have some lemonade for you." Clover said as she entered the living room with a tray of canned lemonade sodas for her son and Fluttershy. "Where did they go?" Colver asked as she looked around for her son and his friend but found no signs of them. Author's Note Okay I feel like three thousand words is a good place to stop at for chapters and maybe I will make them longer but for now this is what I have, and I hope all of you enjoy the story.
Discovering Cyberspace Part 1Time: 2/4/2022 Location: Ponyville Currently walking the halls of Ponyville High is a young man named Asher Roi. Now, Asher is eighteen years old since he is a senior in high school. He is roughly six feet tall with dark brown skin showing he was Zebrican, he also has green eyes with black hair cut low to his head, he has an average build and is currently dressed in a light green T-shirt with blue jeans and black sneakers as he has his black backpack on his back. "Time for another day of struggles." Asher said to himself as he looked at some of the other students in the halls that shared similar thoughts since Asher wasn't the best student around and his grades proved it but luckily, he was still not close to failing and being held back a grade. "Hey Asher." A familiar voice said from behind him as Asher turned around and quickly saw the pink skinned menace known as Pinkie Pie running up and giving him a big hug as she is wearing a white T-shirt with a pink heart on the chest with a blue knee length frilly skirt with white knee socks and blue sneakers on her feet as her yellow backpack was on her back. "Hey Pinkie." Asher said a bit nervously as Pinkie pressed herself against him as she hugged him and if Asher didn't know better, he would have assumed that Pinkie was pressing her boobs against him on purpose to get a rise out of him both literally and figuratively. "I missed you on winter break. Why did you go and have a good time without me and the other girls?" Pinkie asked teasingly as she stopped hugging Asher and playfully poked his chest. "Pinkie it was just a family get together. Nothing major I promise." Asher said as he was still nervous since Pinkie could be rather intense when it comes to parties. "I'm watching you buster." Pinkie warned as the two of them walked to their class together. Since they did share a few classes and soon enough they were in their seats and taking down notes as the teacher talked. {X} Soon enough lunch time rolled around, and Asher was at lunch sitting with his friends as they are Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, Sunset Shimmer, Fluttershy and Pinkie as the group was just talking and conversing as Asher looked around the cafeteria a bit as he looked on at the other students. Now he knew a few by association to his main friends but every once and a while he would notice a new face. "Girls I'm serious. I did some research and I think I discovered actual proof of life within the internet." Twilight said as she had spent several days surfing the web in order to do some type of research that she was pretty secretive about. "Twilight it's not that we don't believe you but it's more like...The internet isn't something that you can find living things in. The internet in a place for literally anything else you can think of." Sunset said which made Twilight pout a bit. "Fine. I'll prove it after school in the computer lab and then you all will believe me." Twilight said back. "Well, I suppose I could swing by instead of just heading home." Rarity said. "Same here Twi. I'll see what your talkin' about." Applejack said as everyone agreed to stay after school and see for themselves what Twilight was talking about. "Twilight I've got to ask. What made you become so invested in this?" Asher asked. "Well one day I was just exploring websites before I found something that piqued my interest. The thing that got me curious was a bizarre search engine that you can't normally access and after making sure my laptop didn't catch any viruses, I properly investigated the search engine and that is what led me to finding out about digital life forms." Twilight said as Asher hummed in response not sure if he should attend the meeting after school. "Well, I think that is a bit fishy, but I'll still stay after school and support you." Asher said making Twilight smile. "Well, it's settled. After school were all going to meet up in the computer lab and see what our resident egghead is going on about." Rainbow Dash said as everyone agreed with her and then lunch time ended as they went to their classes. {X} The time has come as school day for Ponyville High has concluded as a few after school clubs and sports teams stayed after for various reasons but Asher and the girls remained after school as they were now in one of the schools computer labs as Twilight sat in front of a computer and was typing her way through various websites before she made her way to the bizarre search engine she was looking for as it looked similar to google but it has a monster egg image above the search bar and the name above it said [Digital Dive]. "So, this is where you found those digital things you were talking about?" Pinkie asked as she looked at the website with a critical eye. "Not quite." Twilight said as she clicked on the search bar and typed in [Enter Cyber Space] and then just like that the computer screen showed a series of numbers before they saw a website that looked like a series of ones and zero's scrolling vertically on the website. "This is numerical code and the one's and zero's forms patterns that can be converted into words and phrases and this is how I discovered the digital life forms." Twilight explained but sadly her friends all seemed lost at her explanation. "Twilight we don't know code talk." Sunset said. "It's simple. When I type code into the site, I get responses and with those responses I can trace where that code comes from and when I talk with the beings on this site, I discovered that they come directly from the data and note from a server or computer or something else and that means that I am talking directly to the digital beings behind the data." Twilight explained as she started typing. "Did any of you understand that?" Asher asked the girls. "No." They all responded back. "That's odd." Twilight said as a new screen appeared and it looked like a chat room, but the words were all in code. "What do those numbers mean?" Fluttershy asked. "It's a code puzzle. If I solve it, I will be able to see the information that the code is constantly hiding behind various firewalls." Twilight explained as she started getting to work. "Twilight this sounds a lot like hacking." Sunset said. "Hacking would be if I was using this as a way to hurt people but I am simply looking for information, so it isn't really hacking but information gathering." Twilight said as she stopped typing. "And done." Twilight said as she pushed the enter key and suddenly all the windows, she had opened had all closed at the same time. "Was that supposed to happen?" Rarity asked. "No." Twilight said with a sad moan before a new window opened up as this window didn't have any option to close it or anything as it looked like a series of rainbow colored 8-bit blocks that formed a vortex like look before words in a text box than appeared. Those words were [Digital Gate Opened] and suddenly the camera on the computer activated and blinded the group with a bright light as it quickly scanned all of their bodies before they found themselves unable to move as the computer seemed to radiate a rainbow-colored light as it literally sucked in all the teens as all of them were now within the computer itself and saw a series of randomized code numbers and colors. {X} Location: N/A "Ow my head." Asher said as he opened his eyes and saw that he wasn't in the computer lab anymore and instead he sat up and saw that he is in some type of forest that didn't look like any kind of forest he has ever seen before. "What the hell?" Asher asked as he also felt something in his pocket and when he reached in and took out the object, he saw that it was some type of device he wasn't familiar with as it was a hand size rectangular device with various buttons on it as well as a keychain attachment. It also has a small screen near the top of it and the thing was a solid red color with the buttons being a dark green and the sides being white. "What is this thing and where am I?" Asher asked as he decided to walk around a bit unaware that he was being watched. Author's Note Okay it has been a while since I have been on this site, and I am super sorry about that, but I am back and with a new story that I hope everyone will like. So, please show support for this story.
Discovering Cyberspace Part 2Time: 2/4/2022 Location: [N/A] Currently walking around the bizarre forest was Asher as he had no idea where he was going or where he was exactly as he didn't find any noticeable landmarks in sight or anything before, he heard a shriek. "That sounds like Twilight." Asher said before he ran towards the shriek and soon enough, he came upon Twilight still in her school clothes with her glasses still on her face and she was hugging some sort of...Monster. "Twilight." Asher said getting her attention. "Asher your here too? I thought I was dreaming or something when I woke up here and found this cute little guy." Twilight said as she looked at the being in her arms. "I'm not cute. My name is Mochimon and I was trying to warn you about the danger you're in before you suddenly grabbed me." Mochimon said making Asher chuckle a bit. "Sorry but Twilight can't help herself sometimes when it comes to not following certain social cues." Asher said with a teasing smile as Twilight simply sticked her tongue out at him. "Sorry about the random hug. Now what were you saying about danger?" Twilight asked as she put Mochimon down onto the ground. "I saw you suddenly appear out of the sky and since you don't look powerful or anything I wanted to warn you that powerful digimon roam the area and an especially nasty digimon is trying to establish this place as his territory." Mochimon said confusing the two teens. "Sorry but what's a digimon?" Asher asked before the three of them suddenly heard a loud roar and some tree's tumbling near them as they looked to the left and saw a massive digimon fly into the air as this digimon was a fearsome insect type digimon. "That's Kabuterimon. We need to run away before he notices us." Mochimon quickly said as Twilight and Asher both didn't argue or look back as they followed the in-training digimon deeper into the forest even as they heard something like a explosion behind them as they soon came up to an area that looks like it was made out of building blocks for a baby as the towers and trees in this area were actually made up of blocks and the ground changed from hard ground to a soft quilt like floor. "Hello there and welcome to Primary Village." A new voice said as Twilight and Asher both saw another monster coming up to them but oddly enough this one had more of a human female appearance. "Welcome back Mochimon. I trust you aren't planning on exploring the outside once again." The humanoid being said with a ruffle of her wings that were behind her back. "I'm sorry Angewomon but while I was outside, I found these weird digimon and they didn't know the area so I thought that I should help them." Mochimon said as he put his head down a bit. "Where not...Digimon where humans actually and we don't know how we got here." Twilight said as the ultimate level digimon looked at Twilight and Asher for a moment or at least it seemed like she did since she had a helmet like item over half her face. "I can assure you that I already know of your situation. Another strange being had informed me after she woke up here in primary village." Angewomon said peeking Twilight's and Asher's curiosity. "Although I assumed you were a tamer given the fact that all of you seem to have digivices." Angewomon said. "Is that what these things are?" Twilight asked as she held her digivice out as hers was a lavender and light pink mix of colors. "Yes, but I shouldn't be the one explaining this. Please follow me." Angewomon said as the three of them followed behind the ultimate digimon for a good bit of time as Twilight and Asher both noticed the layout of the area and the large number of cribs and eggs all over the place as well as other digimon roaming around. "Fluttershy?" Both Twilight and Asher asked in shock as they say Fluttershy in a large area of cribs as she was holding a digimon as if it was a baby. "Twilight and Asher. Your both here too? I thought this was some sort of bizarre dream." Fluttershy said as the digimon she was holding started crying. "It's okay Wanyamon." Fluttershy said as Twilight and Asher rushed over to her. "Fluttershy has been helping us out after she woke up. Now I explained this to her, but I will tell all of you that a few tamers will be paying us a visit soon and that is your best bet on getting help." Angewomon said before a thought came to Asher's mind. "But what about the other girls? There still out there somewhere." Asher said. "I'm sorry but they will have to find a way to make it to primary village in order to be helped and I can't spare any help at the moment." Angewomon said sadly. "But they won't know about this place. We have to bring them here." Twilight said back. "What if we brought them here?" Asher asked. "I would have no issue with that, but the issue would be on finding them in the first place without being harmed." Angewomon said. As she had no issue with more visitors, but she doubted they could find their friends without being harmed. "We'll find a way. I can't just leave the girls out there alone without knowing that help is coming." Asher said in a serious tone of voice making Twilight and Fluttershy smile at his words. "I'm going with you." Twilight said bravely. "Angewomon would it be alright if I went with them to find our friends?" Fluttershy asked. "Of course. I wish all of you the best of luck." Angewomon said before Fluttershy put Wanyamon in his crib as Angewomon led them both to the same exit/entrance they came through as they saw a visual distortion that showed the outside forest. "Alright we'll find the girls and bring them back here where it's safe." Asher said as he felt nervous but didn't back down. "Right." Twilight and Fluttershy both said at once before they all heard a noise. "Wait." Two voices said as they turned around and saw both Mochimon and Wanyamon coming up towards them. "What do you two think you're doing?" Angewomon asked in a stern tone of voice. "They don't know how things work here. We want to go and help them." Wanyamon said bravely even though her eyes were still red and puffy from the earlier tears. "Yeah, they need help." Mochimon said as well. "We appreciate it, but you guys should stay here where its safe." Fluttershy said. "No way. You guys aren't going without us and if we don't go with you guys' things will get ugly and you also don't know how to avoid the more dangerous areas, so you actually do need our help." Mochimon said as the three humans couldn't actually argue with that logic as Angewomon sighed in response. "If that is truly what you both want to do than I won't stop you, but you have to come back and stay close to your new friends." Angewomon said as both digimon nodded their heads in agreement. "Alright guys. Let's go out and find our friends." Asher said as they walked towards the distortion and re-entered the forest and began their search. {X} Currently near a lake and just waking up is the fashionista known as Rarity as she sat up and took in her surroundings with shock and confusion. "This day really went downhill fast." Rarity said as she took in a deep breath and remained calm and composed as she prided herself on her ability to remain calm under pressure as she simply stood up and dusted herself off a bit before she noticed something in her skirt pocket as she than took it out and saw her own digivice as it is a dark blue color with purple secondary colors. "What is this?" Rarity asked as she started messing around with the buttons and discovered that she could changes the features of the device according to the screen images that she saw. "A watch, some sort of radar, a calendar, a GPS...Wait a GPS." Rarity said as she stayed on the GPS setting and discovered multi-colored dots on the small map she saw. "If I go to one of these markers, I could find help." Rarity said as she began heading towards the closet marker and after several minute of walking, she came up to another friendly face. "Applejack." Rarity said with cheer as she ran up to the farm girl that stopped moving through the dirt path she found as she looked over and saw Rarity as the two of them quickly hugged and separated from each other as Rarity took notice of Applejack's digivice that was attached to her belt as her digivice was a deep yellow color with light red secondary colors. "Howdy Rarity. I reckon were in deep trouble." Applejack said as she looked around at the forest, they were in. "I have no clue where we are or how we even got here. Or what this thing is?" Applejack said as she grabbed her device but left it on her belt. "I think these devices might help us actually. Now I discovered this thing has a GPS and it led me right to you so maybe we can use this device to find the others and figure out where we are and how to get back home." Rarity said before they both heard someone scream as they quickly ran over and ducked into some nearby bushes before they saw the scene as they saw monsters fighting as two monsters were knocked a much larger monster. The two digimon on the ground where Betamon and Lalamon as they are both rookie level digimon and the champion they were fighting was none other than Kabuterimon as it let out a loud hissing noise after it swatted away both rookie digimon. "Lalamon are you okay?" Betamon asked with worry for his friend. "I'm fine. But you need to run while I hold off Kabuterimon." Lalamon said bravely. "What?" Betamon asked in confusion. "Nut Shoot." Lalamon said as she fired a series of seeds from her mouth at Kabuterimon but the attack didn't even get registered to the massive insect. "We don't stand a chance." Betamon said in fear as Applejack and Rarity looked on at the scene and as Rarity didn't know what to do. Applejack acted without a second thought as she saw Kabuterimon ready its attack. "Electro Shocker." Kabuterimon said unleashing a ball of electricity at the rookie digimon but at the last second Applejack quickly grabbed both rookie digimon and dived behind several bushes as the electric ball hit the ground and kicked up a massive amount of dust and created a sizable hole in the ground as Kabuterimon looked around for the data from the destroyed rookies but found none as he then took to the air and started flying around. "Are you insane?" Rarity asked as she quickly ran up towards Applejack as she and the digimon rose from their hiding spots. "Sorry Rarity but I couldn't just let that fella kill these things." Applejack said. "Thank you for helping us." Lalamon said as the small group stood up and looked at each other respectively. "Don't mention it. Why was that thing trying to do you both in?" Applejack asked. "Kabuterimon is establishing its territory and is trying to kill every digimon it finds in order to get strong enough to digivolve." Betamon said as Applejack and Rarity didn't understand the explanation at all. "Still, we owe you for saving us so if you need anything just let us know." Betamon said. "Well. Have either of you seen anyone else like us around here?" Rarity asked. "We'll Angewomon would know. She is in primary village and would tell you if other digimon like you were around." Lalamon said. "We aren't monsters like you think we are, but we'd be mighty grateful if you could show us to this Angewomon person you're going on about." Applejack said as the four of them started heading towards primary village unaware of the group that had left to search for Rarity and Applejack. {X} "How did we end up here?" A voice asked as the trio of Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Sunset Shimmer had managed to escape the forest and came up to what looked like a beach. "We were wandering around aimlessly. Duh." Pinkie said making Rainbow Dash hum in slight agitation. "I didn't mean literally." Rainbow Dash said as Sunset simply sighed. "We are totally lost and now we find out that we are actually on an island." Sunset said before they all heard some sort of rumbling sound as Rainbow and Sunset both looked around before noticing that the rumbling was just Pinkie's stomach. "Sorry. I'm a little hungry." Pinkie said with a sheepish smile. "Well, I guess we should find some food and figure out how these things work." Sunset said as she held out her digivice as hers was a dark orange with light red secondary colors. Rainbow Dash's digivice was a light blue color with yellow secondary colors and Pinkie's was a bright pink with light blue secondary colors as Sunset than began messing around with her digivice for a bit as she tried figuring out how the thing worked. "My vote is for food." Pinkie said as she looked up at a nearby tree and saw that it was a banana tree or at least it seemed like one even though the bananas where an angry red color. "Pinkie we don't know what those things are so we shouldn't mess with them." Rainbow Dash said making Pinkie moan sadly as she dramatically fell to her knees and started drawing circles in the ground with her finger. "I'm going to starve." Pinkie sad sadly as Rainbow simply rolled her eyes at her friend's antics. "Girls...Do you hear that?" Sunset asked as they all heard some rumbling near the water and some buzzing as they quickly hid behind some bushes and saw two digimon appear as one came from the sky while the second came from the ocean as digimon rising from the ocean was a Seadramon while the one from the air was none other than Kabuterimon as the battle started and the girls had a front row seat to it as Kabuterimon actually grabbed Seadramon by its head and lifted it into the air and out of the water after evading Seadramon's Ice Arrow attack and when it was high enough the Kabuterimon let it go and while it fell the insect digimon fired its Electro Shocker attack dealing big damage to the champion digimon before it collided with the ground kicking up massive dust and nearly blinded the girls as they were silent as Kabuterimon quickly capitalized on its chance as it impaled the serpent with its horn and in a quick moment the massive digimon was decapitated before it burst into blue shards of digital data that the Kabuterimon quickly absorbed into itself before it flew off. "What was all of that?" Rainbow Dash asked in slight fear of what she saw. "I don't know but I think it's best that we avoid this beach for a while and try to find a different way to leave this island were on." Sunset said as Rainbow Dash and Pinkie were quick to agree as they wandered back into the forest as they kept a close eye on the skies. {X} Currently the group of Asher, Twilight, and Fluttershy were heading north as Mochimon and Wanyamon acted as their guides. However, they had a bit of a hard time focusing with all the noises they heard around them and the uneasy feeling that they were being watched by something. "Alright we need to cut through here but be careful. Snimon and other digimon use this area as a hunting ground." Mochimon said as they carefully started moving. "Mochimon how do you know that?" Twilight asked. "I like to explore sometimes even though I shouldn't. We also need to hurry." Mochimon said as the group started moving before Fluttershy suddenly tripped over a rock and fell causing the group to look back and see that she not only fell but suddenly the trees near her where cut as they saw a Snimon as it completely blended in with the forest and let out a massive roar of anger terrifying the group. Soon enough the group was running away from the deadly champion digimon as it tried slicing the teens and in-training digimon to pieces. "Nut Shoot. Water Shot" Two voices said as a jet of water and a series of seeds hit Snimon right in the face making it back up a bit as the teens saw their friends Applejack and Rarity with the digimon Lalamon and Betamon. "Applejack. Rarity." Twilight said as the two groups soon became one. "It's great to see ya'll again but now ain't the time for a reunion." Applejack said as Snimon regained its senses and let out another roar. "Don't worry. We'll take him down." Lalamon said confidently. "Are you sure we can't talk things out?" Rarity asked before Snimon raised both its arms and sent them both straight down as it unleashed its attack. "Twin Sickles" Snimon said as its bladed arms released a blade shaped shockwave towards the group. "Nut Shoot. Water Shot" Both Lalamon and Betamon unleashed their attacks as Betamon breathed out a jet of water as Lalamon released a series of seeds as they aimed at the shockwave and caused it to explode as Snimon stomped through the smoke caused from the explosion as Mochimon and Wanyamon decided to charge at him. "Wanyamon. Mochimon." Twilight and Fluttershy both cried out as they saw Snimon about to brutally kill the in-training digimon before both there digivices lit up and both in-training digimon were quickly surrounded by digital codes of ones and zeros. "Wanyamon digivolve to...Gaomon" "Mochimon digivolve to...Wormmon" "Sticky Net. Gao Rush" The newly evolved rookie digimon attacked as Wormmon spat out a sticky adhesive web like substance that covered Snimon's face as Gaomon let loose a rapid series of punches at Snimon's head knocking it back as it was caught off guard by the newly evolved digimon. "What was that?" Asher asked in shock at what he saw. "They digivolved. Now we should take the moment too run." Lalamon said as nobody questioned it as they started running away from Snimon as it desperately tried to get the sticky webs off its head. Author's Note Another chapter done and I want it to be known that digivolution routes aren't preset or anything so expect new evolution lines for certain digimon since that is how digimon works anyway.
Discovering Cyberspace Part 3Time: 2/4/2022 Location: [N/A] Currently moving through the massive forest and hiding from some of the wandering digimon is the group of Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie as they had to occasionally stop and hide from the digimon. "What the hell kind of a place is this?" Rainbow Dash asked as they carefully moved. "I don't know but we need to hurry and figure it out." Sunset said before they heard footsteps behind them. "Who's there?" Pinkie asked as they saw an admittedly cute digimon poke his head out of a sizeable bush as this digimon is Tukaimon. Now if it was any other digimon the girls might have been scared but honestly the girls just seemed a bit underwhelmed. "Who are you and what are you doing in my territory?" Tukaimon asked in an upset voice, but the tension was all but gone. "Sorry little guy we aren't trying to intrude or anything but where kind of lost." Pinkie said as she walked up to the rookie level digimon. "Who are you calling little? I'm a being of darkness and evil. You should fear me." Tukaimon said with an upset look on his face. "I hate to break it to you dude but your way too cute to be threatening." Sunset said making Tukaimon snarl in anger. "Fluffy Attack." Tukaimon said as it propelled itself up and forward in the air with its wings before basically headbutting Pinkie and knocking her to the ground as Pinkie quickly got up and rubbed her very sore nose as Tukaimon hovered in the air. "Owie. That hurt." Pinkie said as Tukaimon's attack wasn't very strong given its soft body, but it still had some sting to it since it nearly gave her a bloody nose. "Punt." Rainbow Dash quickly said as she used her speed to run up to Tukaimon and kicked him which sent him flying towards the right and deep into the forest as they heard him crash into some bushes. "And don't come back unless you apologize to Pinkie!" Rainbow Dash shouted before she started checking Pinkie over to make sure nothing else was hurt. "Well, that was a bizarre experience. We should keep moving." Sunset said before they heard some more footsteps from behind Sunset as the girls looked stunned at who they saw as Sunset turned around and looked at the first two humans they discovered in this bizarre place. "What are you two doing here?" Sunset asked the two familiar faces with total shock and confusion in her voice. {X} Meanwhile the group of Asher, Twilight, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity, Lalamon, Wormmon, Betamon and Gaomon were hiding behind a series of trees as they all caught their breath from running away from the Snimon as Wormmon has just finished explaining digital evolution to them as well. "So normally you need to gather more digital data in order to digivolve but you suddenly gained the data out of nowhere?" Twilight asked as she was a bit confused but was getting a grasp over the subject easily enough. "That is correct." Wormmon said nodding his head. "It must have been because we wanted to protect you guys." Gaomon said honestly as that was the only thing that came to his mind as he thought about why he suddenly digivolved out of nowhere. "Also, when it happened. These things gave off some sort of light and started making beeping noises." Asher said as he held up his digivice. "They did? I didn't notice." Fluttershy said as she held her own device. "What are these things anyway?" Applejack asked as she held her digivice before they heard some footsteps nearby making them get ready to run again. "I believe we can answer that." A familiar voice said as the group looked towards the right where the noise came from as they saw none other than Dean Cadance wearing a light pink and white business suit with a knee length skirt and dress shoes as she had her own dark pink and gold digivice in her right hand and standing next to her was the digimon Lovelyangemon. "Cadance? How did you get here?" Twilight asked in total shock and confusion. "I can explain that, but I think it would be better to talk about it in primary village with your friends." Cadance said with a smile as the group was just very confused before they followed Cadance and the mega level digimon back to primary village where they found Sunset, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie along with the school principals Celestia and Luna as they are both dressed as professionally as Cadance was. "Okay what is going on here?" Asher asked as they all gathered around as Celestia spoke. "Well, I will explain things as best as I can. Now we are all currently within the digital world better known as Cyberspace and this world is populated by digital based beings known as digimon. Honestly nobody truly knows how long this world has existed, but it was only when the internet was first created that digimon were able to interact with our world and vice versa. Now people for years have gone back and forth to the digital world by internet connections and computers and when it happens, they are given these devices called digivices. These digivices are used as conduits for people to bound with digimon as well as help them evolve into stronger forms when the situation arises and the digimon met certain criteria necessary for evolution." Celestia said as she began explaining everything she knew about the digital world, and everything involved in it. {X} "Principal Celestia. This is a lot to take in." Twilight said as everyone's heads was spinning from her explanation. "These devices are super important and can be used as storage devices for digital creatures depending on how much memory it has?" Sunset asked as she looked over her digivice as she began messing around with it. "We understand this is a lot and it is rather confusing. Honestly it took us a long time to learn this much when we first got here." Cadance said with a casual shrug. "Speaking of that. How did the three of you get here?" Asher asked. "Well, we are members of a worldwide hacker group known as Digital Savers and as members we help protect the digital world from danger as well as putting a stop to some evil hackers that abuse digimon and what not." Luna said confusing the group even more. "That can be explained more in our world so let's head home. Cadance, can you handle that wild Kabuterimon alone?" Celestia asked. "It's no problem." Lovelyangemon said with cheer. "Don't worry Celestia. Kabuterimon won't be any trouble." Cadance said with a smile of her own. "Great. Now time to open a digital gate and take these students home." Luna said as she changed the settings on her digivice before she created a circular rainbow-colored portal in the air in front of her. "This is a digital gate, and this will be able to take us home" Luna explained. "Wait. What about our new friends?" Fluttershy asked as she looked down at Gaomon. "Well, if they want to come with us than they need to be digitized and downloaded into your digivices." Luna said as there was a awkward silence before the digimon said who they wanted to go with as Wormmon went with Twilight. Gaomon went with Fluttershy, Lalamon went with Applejack, and Betamon went with Rarity. "Alright. Let's head home." Asher said before they all walked through the portal and soon rematerialized in the real world and in the very same computer lab they were in before they transported themselves into the digital world. {X} Time: 2/6/2022 Location: Ponyville High It had been two days since the group had ventured into the digital world as Asher is currently walking towards his next class as the events of the digital world still stayed in his mind. "Asher." A voice said from behind him as he turned around and saw Fluttershy coming up to him as she was slightly out of breath. "Fluttershy what's wrong?" Asher asked with concern. "The principals want to have a word with us, and I was told to come get you." Fluttershy explained as Asher didn't need to ask for any details as he knew what the conversation would be about, so he didn't hesitate to follow Fluttershy as they headed towards the principal's office as he saw the other six girls and the two principals in the room as Asher closed the door after Fluttershy came into the room. "So, now that you are all here, we would like to discuss things with you." Celestia said as they knew what she was referring to. "I would like to take this time to apologize for hacking into cyberspace with the school's computer." Twilight said with her head down. "Frankly your lucky you aren't in any trouble for your actions but given the severity of the situation we are overlooking it this time, but we won't overlook it again Twilight." Luna said sternly as Twilight kept her mouth shut and simply nodded her head. "Now than. Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack we are aware that you each have spent some time with the digimon that have been downloaded into your digivices. So, what are your opinions of them?" Celestia asked them. "Well, Wormmon is nice and helpful. I had a rather difficult time explaining his existence to my family after he suddenly materialized during dinner but otherwise Wormmon is basically a close friend at this point." Twilight said honestly. "I feel the same, but Gaomon is still a secret as far as my family is concerned." Fluttershy said. "I'm with Shy on this one. If my family saw Lalamon my brother would have grabbed his shotgun and started blastin' without asking questions." Applejack said bluntly. "I thought he got rid of his gun after that hunting accident." Rainbow Dash said as Applejack shrugged. "He did but he had another one on hand to scare away thugs and folks who try to steal from the farm or tip over cows and what not." Applejack said back. "Betamon has been rather pleasant company and my family was a bit shocked when he materialized for no reason but after a lot of convincing, they began to warm up to him." Rarity said as Celestia let out a sigh. "Well, it is good to hear that the digimon have been adjusting nicely. However, I must inform all of you that the digimon shouldn't materialize so abruptly or else it would cause problems." Celestia said as the girls all agreed with her. "Now with that out of the way we can move on to what we truly wanted to talk about. Now all of you are fantastic students and since we can trust all of you, we were wondering if you would like to join us as Digital Savers?" Celestia asked shocking all of them as they were silent for a long moment of time. "Principal Celestia I am not saying no but I have to ask why are you inviting us into this group?" Asher asked with curiosity. "Because despite how widespread we are. The Digital Savers are constantly shorthanded and outnumbered by our enemies, evil digimon and our own members who chose to turn down a darker path." Luna said as Asher thought about what he wanted to say before one of the girls spoke up. "I'm in." Sunset said with a cocky smile. "What?" Rainbow Dash asked in shock. "What do you mean what? This is super exciting and a rare opportunity. There's no way I'm passing this up." Sunset said as the girls and Asher where all a bit shocked by Sunset's boldness but quickly got over it. "I'm in too." Pinkie said before she stood tall and gave a military salute. "Soldier Pinkie Pie reporting for duty." Pinkie said as if she was a real soldier making Celestia sigh with a reluctant smile. Soon enough even though they were unsure all the girls and Asher himself agreed to join the Digital Savers. "Wonderful. Now we will form a after school club to cover your duties in the real world and in the digital world. However, you all must know that the dangers you will be facing will be very real and you shouldn't take this job lightly because one wrong move could mean certain death." Luna said in a deadly serious tone of voice. "We understand ma'am and we won't let either of you down." Asher said. "Good. We will give you all time before we take you all back to the digital world. So, for now rest up and prepare yourselves for your roles in helping protect and save the digital world." Celestia said before they all left the office and headed towards there various classrooms. Author's Note Not much to be said here other than please leave a review and tell me what you people and ponies think. P.S: Positive reviews motivate me to write.
Digital Missions Part 1Time: 2/13/2022 Location: Ponyville High Currently walking the halls of Ponyville High is Asher and Pinkie Pie as she was practically skipping across the halls in a good mood as today is the day that the group is meeting in the computer lab as today is the first day of the 'Cyber Technicians' club which served as a cover for their new jobs as members of the Digital Savers group. "Asher aren't you excited? This is going to be so much fun." Pinkie said with a smile as Asher wore one of his own. "Yeah, I guess I am a bit excited." Asher said with a nervous chuckle. "But I am also trying to remain calm and safe while were doing this Digital Saver stuff." Asher said as the two of them walked towards the computer lab together until they saw the other girls and principal Luna waiting for them. "Good your all here. It's time for us to depart for your first mission." Luna said before Twilight spoke up. "What do you mean by our first mission?" Twilight asked with slight worry. "Well, you all are going to be tested as new members of the Digital Savers and we will be warping towards the Digital Savers main hub in the digital world. That is all you need to know for now. So, let's go and pay close attention as I show all of you how to open a digital gate." Luna said as she took out her digivice and put it on the proper setting before aiming the screen at a computer. "Digital gate open." Luna said before her digivice glowed a bright color before she was surrounded by thousands of ones and zeros that soon faded away and showed that she no longer stood in the room. "Well, I guess were next." Pinkie said with cheer before she readied her digivice and did the same as Luna as she warped herself to the digital world as the other teens did the same as well. {X} Time: 2/13/2022 Location: File Island "Whoa." Asher said as he materialized on the digital island that had threatened his life several days ago or more specifically, he was near the entrance of Primary Village as he saw the other girls and Luna waiting. "It looks like we are all here. Now the mission you all are going on is to help take care of the in-training digimon" Luna said to the group taking them a bit off guard but nobody complained as they made their way into Primary Village and after talking with Angewomon the group was spread out and helping the in-training digimon in various way. "No." A grumpy Pagumon said as Asher tried giving him a bottle of milk, he got from the cooking area of the village. "If you don't drink it you won't grow up big and strong." Asher said to the grumpy digimon. Soon enough though the Pagumon started drinking his milk as Asher heard footsteps behind him which made him turn around and see Angewomon. "Sorry about Pagumon. He can be a handful." Angewomon said before Asher put him down in an empty crib. "It's fine. Besides helping this place out in anyway is an awesome experience." Asher said as he and the girls were enjoying the 'mission' they were assigned to. "I'm glad to hear that. Now since you are helping, I do require your help in a rather important matter." Angewomon said making Asher curious a bit. "Now a handful on in-training digimon like to wander around but one of them hasn't returned and I am worried it has gotten lost. So, I am hoping that you or your friends could look for young Tsumemon." Angewomon said with clear worry in her voice. "Don't worry. We'll find Tsumemon for you." Asher said as the ultimate digimon gave a kind smile. "Thank you. Now some of the newly evolved digimon volunteered to help before they set out into the world so I will gather them now." Angewomon said as she went to gather the rookie digimon while Asher told the girls the situation as the group that would go to help would be the group of Asher, Pinkie, Sunset and Rainbow Dash. "Alright now we just have to wait." Asher said and soon enough Angewomon showed up along with the digimon that would be helping them as these three digimon were Psychemon, Renamon and Agumon. "I wish you all the best of luck and please stay safe." Angewomon said as the large group exited Primary Village and started to wander around the island in searh of Tsumemon. {X} "So, in your world you get to taste all kinds of yummy foods?" Psychemon asked in wonder as she stuck close to Pinkie Pie. "Yup and I even have a part time job at a place that makes the best food ever." Pinkie said making Psychemon's eyes widen in awe. "I wanna go to your world so bad and eat the yummy food." Psychemon said as she was jumping up and down as they walked. "Psychemon you've got to calm down. You're going to give away our position." Renamon said with a sigh. "It's like we have to deal with two versions of Pinkie Pie now." Rainbow Dash said with a sigh of her own as Asher and Sunset simple chuckled at the thought. "Come on Rainbow. It isn't that bad." Sunset said as she kept an eye own for the in-training digimon. "Agumon are you sure this is the right direction?" Asher asked as they walked through thick bushes and vines hanging off trees. "I'm positive. Besides this path will let us avoid some of the more dangerous digimon on the island." Agumon said with a smile of his own as they moved before they all heard a scream. "That was Tsumemon." Renamon quickly said as she rushed towards the sound along with the rest of the group as they soon came up to a clearing where they saw Tsumemon who was clearly scared and shaking at the digimon in front of him as this digimon was Snimon but shockingly in between the two of them was none other than Tukaimon who was looking rather beat up. "Tsumemon stay back." Renamon said as she, Agumon and Psychemon ran up to him and stood bravely in front of him. "What are you guys doing here?" Tukaimon asked in confusion before he evaded a sickle strike that hit the ground. "Where saving you and Tsumemon. Pepper Breath." Agumon said as he fired a fireball from his mouth towards Snimon. "Colored Spark. Diamond Storm." Both Psychemon and Renamon also launched attacks at the Snimon as Psychemon launched colored sparks off electricity from its mouth while Renamon had sharp and glowing leaves appear in front of her that rocketed towards the Snimon as all the attacks hit their mark which made Snimon back up into a tree for a moment. The Snimon in his panic went to rush the rookie level digimon who attacked with another series of projectiles as the Snimon's head caught fire as it flailed around in a panic for a bit before rolling around on the dirt to put itself out as it proceeded to run away. "That was awesome." Rainbow Dash said as she rushed up to Renamon. "Seriously you guys just rushed in and totally saved the day." Rainbow Dash said as the others also rushed to the scene. "Yeah, you digimon totally kicked butt." Pinkie said as Sunset went over towards the Tukaimon. "So, Mr. Evil how did you get mixed up in all of this?" Sunset asked as Tukaimon just grumbled under his breath. "I'm sorry but I didn't quite hear you." Sunset said teasingly as Tukaimon slightly blushed. "I said that Tsumemon looked pathetic when he's scared so I had to do something to help and make him stop crying." Tukaimon said as he tried to act tough and evil before Sunset scoped him up. "Hey let me go." Tukaimon said with protest before his hurt wings made him wince in pain. "Your, in bad shape little guy and leaving you here to be killed wouldn't sit right with me. Besides you still owe Pinkie an apology." Sunset said in a way that Tukaimon couldn't argue with as the group made their way back to Primary Village. {X} "Thank you for bringing back, Tsumemon. All of you have been a big help." Angewomon said to the group of humans and digimon as they entered the village and got Tsumemon put into his crib where he took a well needed nap. "It was no trouble." Asher said with a smile of his own. "Yeah, it was a memorable experience after all." Sunset said before Angewomon spoke once more. "I'm sure it was but there is something these digimon have told me about your little mission. Now these digimon where given a choice about wanting to leave out into the world or remain here and they all said that they would like to go with all of you as your digital partners." Angewomon said which shocked the group. "Does that include Tukaimon?" Sunset asked as the little guy was coming up towards them on the ground and with bandages over his wings as he was the last digimon to show up to this little meeting. "That is correct." Angewomon said looking down at the stubborn and prideful digimon as he scoffed. "Staying here is lame and you jerks wouldn't survive without me helping you so I'm being a digital partner so I can make sure you all don't do anything stupid." Tukaimon said with his head turned as he didn't look at the group. "We are going to have to do something about that attitude of your but before you come with us. You are going to apologise to my friend for attacking her." Sunset said in a serious tone of voice as Tukaimon looked over at Pinkie. "I'm sorry for hitting you." Tukaimon said stubbornly. "Swallowing that much pride must taste pretty bitter." Psychemon said with a smile as Tukaimon practically hissed at Psychemon. "So, are you guys sure you want to come with us?" Asher asked as he looked down at Agumon. "Yup. Sticking around you guys seems pretty interesting." Agumon said back. "I agree. Besides tamers go all over the place to fix problems so this sounds like the perfect adventure." Renamon said as she crossed her arms. "I want to taste all the yummy food." Psychemon said as she was practically drooling at the thought and soon enough the digimon were bonded to their new tamers as Agumon went into Asher's digivice, Renamon went into Rainbow Dash's digivice, Psychemon went with Pinkie and Tukaimon went with Sunset as the rest of the human group rejoined the group off Asher, Pinkie, Sunset and Rainbow Dash before they rematerialized in the human world. {X} Time: 2/14/2022 Location: Equestria City "Asher it's time to wake up." Asher's mother said as she entered the room as Asher's mother had light brown skin with black hair combed down to her chin, brown eyes with a slim frame and is currently wearing a pair of sweatpants and a matching hoodie. Her name is Clover Roi and currently she is shocked and scared as she saw a child sized dinosaur in her son's room as she then let out a massive scream that woke Asher from his sleep and after a long explanation Clover managed to calm down and began talking with the friendly reptile as Asher entered the home kitchen in a simple black T-shirt with blue jeans and sneakers on. "Agumon you can't just realize into the real world like that." Asher said as he looked at his digital partner who was currently being given stale homemade bread thanks to his mother. "But I was bored." Agumon said as he was enjoying the bread without a care as Asher just gave a sigh in response. "It is too early for all of this." Asher said as his mother looked at him. "If that's the case then why are you fully dressed and ready to go outside?" Clover asked. "Because I promised Fluttershy I would help her out at the animal shelter. Come on Agumon." Asher said as he held out his digivice and Agumon became a series of digital ones and zeros that got absorbed into the digivice. "I'll catch you later mom." Asher said as he exited the house and made his way towards the nearby animal shelter on foot since it was within walking distance before he felt his digivice vibrate as he grabbed it from within his pocket and saw a message on it. [Email] From: Pinks69@Email.com [Subject: Did you know?] Did you know you can use this digivice to send emails? I already told the girls and now I'm telling you. This is awesome. [End of Email] "Huh. These things have a lot of functions." Asher said as he walked for roughly an hour and twenty minutes before coming towards the animal shelter where he saw Fluttershy outside waiting for him as she was wearing a basic white T-shirt with jean short and brown sneakers as she also had her backpack on her back with her digivice attached to it. "Asher you made it on time." Fluttershy said as Asher walked up to her. "Yeah, I just had to wake up early and get a head start on things." Asher said as they entered the building together. "Oh. Sorry I didn't mean to inconvenience you." Fluttershy said nervously. "Fluttershy I'm just messing with you. I'm cool and I want to help out." Asher said to her as she smiled a bit as her long hair covered the smile. "Well again I want to say thanks for coming. Some of the volunteers have been scared to help after a few rescue dogs started getting aggressive." Fluttershy said before they stopped at the main desk where Asher had to sign in and get everything situated before he was allowed to help and soon enough, he was helping to feed and take care of the animals. "Hey there little guy. You don't seem so bad." Asher said as he was talking to a small brown furred pit bull as he was brushing his fur as they dog just panted and enjoyed the treatment. "Asher do you need some help?" Fluttershy asked as she stopped in front of them in the hallway lined with barking dogs in cages as she carried a large bag of dog food. "I'm fine Shy. Actually, I should ask if you need help since that dog food looks a bit heavy." Asher said looking at Fluttershy struggle a bit. "I've got it. Thanks for asking though." Fluttershy said as the two of them continued helping out around the animal shelter before both of their digivices vibrated. [Email] From: AnonYmous101@Email.Ney [Subject: Digital Savers Membership] Hello, you can call me Anon and I have heard from Luna and Celestia that you have proven your loyalty to our cause but there are members that say otherwise so you are being given a mission. Asher and Fluttershy you both are being given a mission to stop a rogue hacker in your city. You cannot be helped by your friends, or your membership is forfeit. You have until the end of the day to stop him in cyberspace. I have uploaded the details to your digivices. Best of luck. [End of Email] "What?" Fluttershy asked in confusion as she looked at her digivices screen within the breakroom along with Asher. "So, we have to complete a trial by fire, and we have to do it alone." Asher said as he looked at Fluttershy before he walked up to her and spoke. "It's going to be alright Shy. We can do this, and we don't even have to fight the guy since all we have to do is destroy the virus he created in the digital world." Asher said as he looked at the details of the mission as they had to destroy a virus filled digimon. Now the details did explain that digimon don't really die but are reformed back into digi-eggs but to Fluttershy that was still something hard to ask of her. "I know but...I don't know if I can willfully hurt a creature and end its existence." Fluttershy said as Asher spoke up once more. "Fluttershy you don't have to do this. You can back out of all of this if you want to. The girls and I aren't trying to force you to join this group or anything." Asher said. "I understand that but...Backing out feels like a betrayal and I don't want to hold all of you back by having to worry about me with all of this digital stuff...So, I'll help but I'm still unsure if I can go through with this." Flutteryshy said with honesty. "Fluttershy you are too pure for this world." Asher said making Fluttershy blush a bit. "No, I'm not. Let's just do this mission please." Fluttershy said as she tried to sound tough but to Asher it was just a cute attempt to mimic Rainbow Dash. "Alright let's go to my place and we can use the computer I have at home to enter the digital world." Asher said as they two of them sighed out of volunteering at the shelter as they walked back to Asher's place where he did need to take some time to rest his legs before the both of them went over to the desktop computer in the living room where they opened a digital gate and entered the digital world. "Alright kids I have some lemonade for you." Clover said as she entered the living room with a tray of canned lemonade sodas for her son and Fluttershy. "Where did they go?" Colver asked as she looked around for her son and his friend but found no signs of them. Author's Note Okay I feel like three thousand words is a good place to stop at for chapters and maybe I will make them longer but for now this is what I have, and I hope all of you enjoy the story.
