Ok now that I’m thinking abt it cfv cast social media headcanons if cfv was set a little closer to now than 2011:

Aichi: he has Instagram but mostly to follow Kai (who didn’t actually accept his follow request until like the end of season 1 lmao) and Misaki and all his other friends rather than out of a particular desire to post pictures himself. It’s a private account and he posts when the mood strikes him, with content wildly varying from like pictures with friends to cute animals to cool new vanguard cards to food that was particularly good. Has Snapchat because Kamui bugged him about it and mostly uses it for streaks (but he forgets a lot & kamui’s like BROTHER AICHIIIIIIII :( OUR STREAK :( ).

Kai: Instagram. It’s also a private account, and for a while he just had 2 followers (Ren and Tetsu), then after their fallout he blocked Ren and Tetsu but Miwa bugged him into accepting his request (though he didn’t really post during that time just used it to observe), then after s1 he finally accepted more of his friends’ follow requests. Eventually he starts posting food he made & ofc his favorite kagero units (& maybe his friends. Occasionally. He’s not big on writing captions though). I can also see him having a Twitter where people try to antagonize him & he roasts the shit out of them (Kamui is constantly in his mentions trying to start shit, at first out of genuine dislike - he gets blocked for a while because of this - but then just for fun. Kai still blocks him every so often, and/or occasionally plays along and snipes back with some rude comment, but it’s mostly to annoy him back rather than out of genuine malice. Mostly. He does enjoy being an asshole to Kamui though). Has Snapchat but pretty much only opens it when Aichi sends him something (Ren likes to send him a million snaps chronicling his whole day to annoy him so mostly he ignores the app).

Misaki: she’s a Pinterest girlie for sure. Very organized Pinterest boards with images that are always properly sourced. She also has Instagram (also a private acc) but she didn’t use it much before she met her card capital friends, now she uses it to keep tabs on Aichi and the others. She doesn’t really post pictures except on special occasions but she is an avid close friends story user, especially when she knows Kourin will see her posts (before s4? Or au where she doesn’t disappear I guess? Idk it’s my city & I’m already diverging from canon to say they have social media just roll with it). There’s also an official Card Capital Instagram, and when she becomes the store owner in G she doesn’t really run it but she has to approve the content that gets posted there. I can also see her having tumblr just bc of her “strange” sense of humor, like she’d be very anonymous about it and not put basically anything in her bio (MAYBE her name but maybe not even that, & possibly a fake name), but I can see her being fairly popular here.

Kamui: he’s too young for social media AND YET he has it anyways. Can frequently be found getting into fights on Twitter. He’s also a big Snapchat user and HATES when people leave him on read, or when someone’s about to break a streak. Very big on streaks in general, has insanely long ones with Reiji and Eiji. Also he definitely has tiktok and (he will deny this but) he’s jealous when anyone he knows has more followers than he does. How does Suzugamori Ren have that many followers anyways >:/? In G era he downloads Instagram because he heard that Emi did it.

Miwa: definitely a Reddit user (but like not in the derogatory way, he’s just fascinated by the site). He has a personal Instagram as well as a wildly popular other account dedicated to unflattering candid pictures of his friends (mostly Kai but Misaki Kamui and Morikawa are also frequent features, and, on one memorable occasion, Jun). Semi-popular on TikTok for being a sweet & funny guy and also for casually mentioning insane things that happened and never elaborating (“yeah sorry I was absent I got kidnapped because my dumbass friend wanted to play cards with a gang leader, that guy better be grateful”).

Reiji and Eiji: have the same social media Kamui does, and hype him up on it (/occasionally bemoan how lame he is) but also do their own things.

Morikawa: Tumblr user, fully believes the wizard blogs are real wizards. Gets anons from people like “I want to study you” all the time & he always misses the point and makes it into “the Morikawa vanguard school is always open to new students because I am the greatest teacher ever”. After meeting her, a lot of his posts start focusing on Kourin and his followers have an equivalent experience to when someone you’ve followed suddenly turns into a K-pop blog with absolutely no explanation. Kind of famous just because of how fucking weird he is. He also has Snapchat but is like really bad at taking pictures so everything he sends/posts is blurry or at a bad angle, but unironically. Had no interest in any other social media until he heard Kourin had Instagram and Twitter, at which point he downloaded them both and immediately started posting about her.

Izaki: Twitter user /derogatory (sorry Izaki but I know this in my heart to be true. He’s gotta have some red flags to have stayed friends with Morikawa this long). Also has Snapchat and tries (and fails) to help Morikawa take better pictures. Kamui frequently bullies him about losing their streak, which since they’re not actually that close is probably their main form of communication. Izaki’s not totally convinced that Kamui actually knows his NAME, so he’s confused about why he cares so much (it’s bc Kamui has a Snapchat streak with literally everyone he knows who 1. has Snapchat and 2. does streaks). Also possibly has an Instagram where he occasionally gets influxes of followers when he’s tagged in pictures with his more famous friends, but some of them probably don’t think he’s that interesting and soon unfollow (lmao rip)

Emi: does not have social media in the main series but gets an Instagram by G era (when Kamui finds this out he suddenly downloads Instagram even though he has never expressed an interest in it before, and thus so does Nagisa, somehow sensing what Kamui has done).

Nagisa: has Twitter only so she can follow Kamui (again, she is too young for Twitter). Kamui has her blocked but she can still somehow sense when someone’s arguing with him & she comes into their replies like “leave my man alone!!” I would not be surprised if she doxxed people tbh. She keeps getting banned but somehow every time she appeals it the ban is lifted (Kamui suspects dark magic). Also downloads Instagram in G era after Kamui does (how does she know he got it if he didn’t tell her??? She has her ways).

Kourin: has an official ultrarare Instagram and Twitter where she promotes her idol work, and also a private Instagram and Twitter where she posts pictures of her friends and nerds out about vanguard and thoroughly logically dismantles stupid people. Once she posted a stupid meme making fun of Kai on her official ultrarare Twitter instead of her personal one by accident and fully freaked out trying to take it down before the fans screenshotted it (she wasn’t successful bc idol fans are crazy and ended up saying she was hacked) (Kai will never admit it but he thought it was funny). She probably has Morikawa blocked on every platform.

Rekka: an instagram girlie FOR SURE. She posts often and sticks to a cutesy aesthetic, and is wildly popular. She’s also very into Snapchat, both in terms of doing streaks with people and live-blogging funny bits of her day on her story. Probably also spends a lot of time on Pinterest & has a lot of Pinterest boards for every situation.

Suiko: I’ll be real I have no idea. I feel like she either has no social media at all and just like guest appears on Kourin and Rekka’s, or has like official instagram/twitter accounts with tons of followers that she semi-maintains and weird shitposty anonymous accounts where she just posts whatever comes to her brain. Tbh I can see her stirring the pot so she can observe Kamui into getting into more twitter beef just to see what happens. Redditor??? She is a mystery to me.

Kenji: has Tumblr & like 60% of it is dedicated to Ancient Rome, 30% of it is about vanguard, and the last 10% is just him reblogging like feminist stuff and positive messages. A wife guy without actually having a wife or realizing he’s a wife guy (posts a lot about “his friend” - Yuri - bc he just thinks she’s neat, but his followers seem to think he’s in love with her for some reason???). Cries when people on tumblr celebrate the ides of March. Probably has been cancelled for unironically stanning Caesar. Also has an official Instagram but doesn’t post on there much, when he’s there he’s usually just there to like his friends’ posts and log back off. People are surprised by his lack of social media and have not connected his tumblr (where he stays completely anonymous thank you very much, he is Not a fan of the attention) to him, and are always begging him to post more on his Instagram/get more social media, but when Yuri and Gai bring this up hes like no <3 I will not <3

Yuri: she’s a YouTuber for sure & she has helpful videos on deck building, strategy, how to stay calm under pressure, etc. Occasionally she includes her teammates or people from other teams in her videos (Aichi featured in one once and now her fans regularly ask for him to come back lol). She also has an official Instagram and Twitter, and runs most of the official Team Caesar accounts on various platforms. Yuri and Misaki are tumblr mutuals, and she is aware of Koutei’s tumblr (bc they’re both in the vanguard tag a lot and who else would be THAT obsessed with Julius Caesar. She’s no fool, she recognized it was him instantly) but she thinks it’s funny to not tell him it’s her (+ she’s kind of embarrassed in a fond way/thinks he might be embarrassed about the posts abt her if he knew) so she just scrolls through his nice posts abt her when she’s having a bad day.

Gai: tiktok famous for generally being a chill dude who’s willing to answer your vanguard questions but mostly for posting Team Caesar behind the scenes videos, which range from Yuri being mad at one or both of them to them doing challenges/playing games together, to some of their movie star stuff in G, to one particularly memorable video where he just stared at the camera while Yuri and Koutei were being in love with each other and (at least in Koutei’s part) oblivious to it in the background.

Ren: pre-season 1 he had no social media except an Instagram account and a Snapchat, both of which he used to post an ongoing stream of whatever was in his brain so that Tetsu and Kai would see it. After The Breakup™️ he went private and posted a lot of stuff about revenge, and being stronger, etc (which was no use since Kai had him blocked and he was not popular pre-Asteroid era, so pretty much only tetsu saw his posts). Also he’s DEFINITELY a Reddit user lmao. Post-season 1 Asaka got him into tiktok which he immediately became famous on, he joined Twitter which had a preconception of him due to the way he acted during season 1 and so he gets cancelled every other week for a while (eventually they mostly get used to his new personality and the way he says the weirdest shit), and he rebooted his Instagram to be public and deleted most of the old revenge posts (he probably leaves one up just to cause controversy lmao). Often leaves Kyou on read on Snapchat, but whether that’s on purpose or an accident is anybody’s guess. Actually he probably would have tumblr too & be kinda infamous bc his personality would definitely make him popular here tbh. He runs a “official ren suzugamori” blog but he never acknowledges he’s on tumblr anywhere else and everyone thinks it’s just a fake parody blog.

Asaka: tiktok famous for being hot, on team asteroid, and if she’s feeling generous for answering people’s vanguard questions (with a special focus on the Pale Moon of course). Probably also has a sizable following on Instagram. Lords her amount of followers over Misaki who pretends she doesn’t care but early seasons Misaki was actually a little annoyed by this.

Kyou: had a Twitter. Keeps getting banned from Twitter and making new accounts and the cycle repeats. Doesn’t have a tiktok but is tiktok famous anyways for always appearing in team asteroid videos in the weirdest ways (disguised as a potted plant. Scaled the building and can be seen inaudibly yelling in the background through the window on the third floor of team asteroid headquarters. Parachuting down from an airplane. Etc). When people comment about him on Ren’s videos he’s always like “who?” “I don’t see him?” or “huh, that guy looks vaguely familiar…” and when people comment about him on Asaka’s videos she refuses to name him but always says something about how much she hates that guy. Has Snapchat but about half the cast either leaves him on opened/read or straight up has him blocked (he Does take really interesting pictures though, and it’s cool to see all the places he goes! How does he have the money for all this??? Nobody knows).

Tetsu: runs “official team asteroid” accounts, including a YouTube on which Ren is IMMENSELY popular despite not being the account owner. Known for being intimidating on Twitter, and also for (one-sided tbh) twitter beef with Kamui (who would @ him like HEY ASSHOLE ACKNOWLEDGE ME >:/ & Tetsu would just ignore him) in earlier canon. He doesn’t actually use any of his accounts that much besides the YouTube and to publish official updates about team asteroid, but - though he’ll never admit it - he’s a fan of terrible memes. He asked what Asaka was laughing at once and she showed him a vanguard meme (“I don’t know if you’ll get it though”) and he excused himself and went to another room to laugh (Asaka was like ???).

#cleaning out drafts!! oh my god this has been in here for ages…I’m so bad at posting shit #morikawa and nagisa probably both have at least one account with an embarassing kourin or kamui themed name #if they weren’t fucking insane and utterly disinterested in anyone that’s not the person they’re obsessed with they could bond over that #cfv #do I really want to tag everyone. that’s so many people…#sigh. here we go.#sendou aichi #kai toshiki #tokura misaki #katsuragi kamui #suzugamori ren #shinjou tetsu #miwa taishi #uno reiji #saga eiji #morikawa katsumi #izaki yuta #sendou emi #daimonji nagisa #tatsunagi kourin #tatsunagi rekka #tatsunagi suiko #mitsusada kenji #usui yuri #usui gai #narumi asaka #yahagi kyou #anyways I don’t even know if this is good but it’s been sitting in my drafts for like 83 years so out into the world it goes

Digimon Tamer ZERO

Chapter 13 Forlorn Vow (Finale of the first part)

Aichi’s heart felt so warm and fuzzy right now. He always wanted to do this deep down. It was not unlike when he reunited with Blaster Blade on Cray. Now, he finally understood those strange thoughts and feelings he had towards Dynasmon.

However, he felt something else in his chest. Something inside it that was invasive and foreign. A grim reminder that this was…fleeting. He was on limited time…a ticking time bomb that could go off at any moment and spell doom for those he loved.

Even still he treasured this moment. Those watching could tell from Aichi’s expression how much the affection meant to him. They wordlessly separated from each other. Aichi looked up at Dynasmon who looked away flustered. Aichi then turned to the angel Digimon more serious. Pusumon giggled happily.

“Great angels, is there any way to destroy the seed?”, Aichi asked.

The room became silent and tense. Seraphimon looked at Aichi intently.

“I honestly don’t know. I suppose there’s no harm in trying.”, Seraphimon replied, honestly.

On Earth…

The forces of the demon lords slowly encroached from the train stations.

At Forest Terminal…

Aichi looked down disappointed. They tried everything they could. He saw so many bright flashes of light he felt his head spinning. The mood was doured and Kourin looked very worried looking over to Aichi. Dynasmon looked annoyed grumbling about the uselessness of the Celestial Digimon. Pusumon looked confused and sad not exactly understanding the situation.

“I have news from our scout that the Demon Lords are on the move! It seems they’re trying to go to the human world!”, Sorcerermon said as he ran in.

This quickly gained their attention. The humans tensed at the news.

“Then, you must chase after them. We’re deeply sorry we cannot lift your curse, but we can provide you passage to the human world.”, Ophanimon said.

“You're just moving him not solving the problem…you useless angels.”, Dynasmon grumbled.

“It’s fine, Dynasmon. The seed didn’t even originate from the Digital World. Hoping they could get rid of it was always a long shot.”, Aichi replied and Dynasmon hmphed.

“We wish we could have aided you more after everything you’ve done. Unfortunately this is the most we can provide.”, Seraphimon said.

“So, what will we do about the seed then?”, Kourin asked.

“I guess we will simply have to wait until the Demon Lords are dealt with…I wish there was something I could do.”, Olivier said as he balled his fist.

Ren looked over to Aichi who seemed deep in thought. He swore he could see darkness in his expression.

“Oliver’s right. We will have to find a way to deal with it after defeating the Demon Lords.”, Aichi said.

Sorcerermon led them to a secret Trailmon underground.

On Earth…

The time was 6:01am. Despite the time that passed in the Digital World the forces of the Demon Lords hadn’t gotten far due to the time difference. The people of Earth were quickly starting to take notice of the invaders. Soon, the Demon Lords arrived on Earth….

The streets erupted into chaos when people saw the monsters roaming. Cars drove wildly trying to get away causing crashes. Screams of terror and explosions rang through the air. In mere minutes the city was thrown into chaos. A humanoid Digimon with blue armor roared as he cut through an electrical pole like butter. Just like that the internet which humans could use to contact the outside world was being cut off. A black t-Rex Digimon yanked at another electrical line with its tail.

“W-woah, what the hell is going on?!”, Naoki questioned and Shingo pulled him back behind a building.

“Shut it, wannabe! We don’t want those monsters to come near us.”, Shingo whispered.

“I’ll just cardfight them.”, Naoki replied.

“Do those guys look like they’re interested in cardfight?”, Shingo questioned, incredulously.

“Dark Roar!”, the Digimon with blue armor called out as it fired dark matter from its weapon.

The two paled as those hit by the dark matter were completely annihilated. This made Naoki rethink getting anywhere near them.

“Let’s bounce.”, Naoki said as quietly as possible and Shingo nodded.

The two started to sneak away from the chaos. They quickened their pace when debris started to fly everywhere. The Digimon with blue armor spotted them as they started running, aiming its weapon at them.

“S-Shit!”, Naoki cursed.

However suddenly something flew past them like a blur.

“Kotemon warp digivolve to…! Dynasmon!”, a familiar voice said.

The Digimon with blue armor coughed up blood as it suddenly had a gaping hole through its stomach. It was created by a massive fist that tore through its armor and body like tissue paper. More Digimon suddenly flooded in to combat the invading Digimon. This left the two very confused not understanding what was going on at all. Naoki tensed and Shingo flinched when the Digimon that easily dealt with the Digimon with blue armor turned to them. That Digimon was…Dynasmon.

“Naoki! Shingo!”, the two turned as they heard a familiar voice.

Their eyes widened in disbelief to see both Aichi and Kourin. They were even more confused to see Aichi carrying a small Digimon. Crusadermon struck a Digimon trying to attack them from behind with her roses.

“What the hell…?”, Naoki questioned.

“You guys need to go somewhere safe!”, Aichi said.

The black dinosaur rushed at Dynasmon in fury drawing their attention.

“How d-“, the black dinosaur was saying however it never got to finish its sentence.

Dynasmon backhanded the dinosaur without looking at it. It’s strike blew the dinosaur’s head off. Naoki and Shingo gaped incredulously at seeing this. Aichi would normally scold Dynasmon for killing another Digimon so casually but…He looked around seeing the untold destruction all across the city in mere minutes. The stench of blood and ash was in the air. Regrettably they really didn’t have time to purify every attacking Digimon if they wanted to save as many victims as possible.

It was frightening to imagine what level of destruction would have been caused before they arrived if Earth and the Digital World moved at the same time. Aichi went over to Dynasmon’s side. Naoki froze at seeing Aichi and Dynasmon together. Something about it felt oddly familiar.

“Where are you going, Aichi?!”, Shingo questioned fearfully, before Aichi looked back at his friends.

“We’re going to deal with this.”, Aichi replied, only adding to the two’s confusion.

“It’s a long story. We don’t have time to explain.”, Kourin said.

Aichi put Pusumon into his former v-pet and got on Dynasmon’s back as he flew. The wyvern knight manipulated the wind to move the debris out of the way of crushing people. He then fired that same debris at the many Digimon that charged at it. The pressure of the wind increased the deadliness of the debris drastically allowing it to kill the Digimon attacking it. Kourin led Naoki and Shingo away with Crusadermon guarding them.

“Does this mean you remember us?!”, Naoki questioned and Kourin nodded.

The two looked stunned learning this.

Dynasmon flew at unbelievable speeds tearing countless numbers of the invading Digimon apart. Aichi had a much better view of the devastation now. It unnerved him greatly to see the city he’s lived in his whole life torn asunder. He only hoped that no one he knew was…Aichi visibly flinched holding his chest as a dark aura appeared around him briefly. He really didn’t have the time. Any time.

“I’m sorry for this…”, Aichi thought solemnly.

Only due to this ruthless decision and the blessing of Dynasmon’s speed were they able to save as many people as they could. In less than a minute the invading forces within the city were annihilated to the awe of those witnessing it. Dynasmon stood victorious over the corpses of the invaders who quickly faded away. People looked out from the destroyed buildings seeing Dynasmon high in the sky.

“How shit!”, Naoki said, completely stunned.

“Well, that was quick. I suppose we should focus on our second objective then, my lady.”, Crusadermon said.

“Second objective?”, Naoki questioned, having the same strange feeling as when he saw Aichi and Dynasmon together.

“We have to check on everyone to make sure they’re alright.”, Kourin replied.

“That makes sense.”, Shingo replied.

She started explaining to them how they went to the Digital World with vague details. She was unsure if they should know about the seed considering Aichi hadn’t told them before and they didn’t need to be worried about that and the Demon Lords at the same time.

Gatomon snickered as she viewed Aichi and Dynasmon from afar.

“It seems the Digimon we sent after them failed miserably. Alas…”, Gatomon sighed.

She watched as the two flew off. She observed them quietly following them.

Aichi looked beyond relieved to see his house in one piece. Dynasmon shrunk down, becoming Kotemon. His family would definitely freak out seeing Dynasmon’s towering form, but there was no telling if there were surviving invaders lurking around. Aichi and Kotemon looked around cautiously before entering the house.

At the door he was met by his mother who seemed to be rushing out with Emi. She quickly stopped before she ran into Aichi.

“There you are, Aichi! We have to go! Did you hear those explosions?!”, his mother said, sounding panicked.

Emi looked over, noticing how bizarrely calm Aichi was. She remembered Link Joker and wondered if her brother was somehow caught up in this too. Her mother noticed the small figure in kendo gear next to Aichi and her eyes widened.

“Everything is fine for now.”, Aichi replied as he noticed his mother looking at Kotemon.

“Your…that can’t be…”, his mother murmured.

“This is Kotemon.”, Aichi introduced, gesturing to his partner.

The two looked completely stunned at this.

“Wait…’mon’? Kotemon? Isn’t that a Digimon?!”, Emi questioned.

When she looked more she noticed the reptilian feet and tail clearly poking out of the kendo armor. Emi’s eyes were completely wide as she realized it was real as she saw the tail move.

“I don’t understand. What’s going on, Aichi?! I thought Kotemon left.”, his mother said, surprising Emi.

Aichi looked a bit shocked due to not having his memories.

“This might sound unbelievable, but there’s really no way to hide it after what just happened…”, Aichi said.

He explained how he went to the Digital World leaving out any parts about the void. He had also brought Pusumon back out who was fussy at being forced into the former v-pet. His mother calmed it down and Emi’s eyes sparkled at how cute it was. Notably Pusumon was bigger than when it was seen last. It no longer had its binky, it had grown short stubby legs and had yellow spikes on its back.

“I’m sorry, Pusurimon. I put you in the v-pet because I didn’t want you to be in danger while Dynasmon was fighting.”, Aichi apologized, waving his hands.

“It was still so mean, mommy! I didn’t know where you were!”, Pusurimon replied.

However, it quieted down when Aichi’s mother gave it food and it focused on eating, making them sweat drop.

“Because the Demon Lord’s forces are attacking all over the world through the train stations we all had to split up.”, Aichi was saying.

Aichi looked down at his phone and Kotemon looked over his shoulder. His phone was full of worried texts from his friends. He kept repeatedly hearing dings as he tried to talk. He quickly tried to text all his friends back clarifying he was okay and asked if they were. He frowned as he got a call from Misaki, but he knew better than to ignore her. It wasn’t as if he didn’t want to hear her; he just…didn’t want to explain what happened at the club.

Emi gave him a judging look as he looked down at the ringing phone.

“Come on, what’s up with you, brother?! Answer her!”, Emi said.

“She will only get more worried if you don’t answer her again.”, Kotemon said as Aichi closed his eyes.

Emi raised her eyebrow at this. What he said implied Misaki had already called him. She was absolutely perplexed at why her brother was avoiding her and his other friends. He raised the phone up to his ear accepting the call.

“Yes.”, Aichi replied softly.

He instantly backed away as he could hear Misaki yelling. She was so loud Emi could hear her even though it wasn’t on speaker. Kotemon had never felt such unbridled fury from a voice alone. He wondered what kind of power this Misaki had, especially since he could see his tamer’s intense fear plastered on his face.

“I have been trying to call you for the past half hour! Why the fuck haven’t you been responding?! I thought you were dead! Are you and Emi alright!”, Misaki said, fuming with rage which made Aichi tremble in fear.

She could tell just how enraged she was when he heard her curse. He’s never heard that before so he knew he was basically dead. Was the void going to matter when Misaki murders him?

“I-I’m s-“, Aichi was saying shakily before he was cut off.

“Get your ass over here now! You are going to explain what the fuck is going on! I got a message from Ren saying you went to some ‘Digital World’ and Kourin’s back!”, Misaki practically ordered.

“E-Emi’s fine…so is my mom.”, Aichi replied, sounding like a mouse compared to her.

“Then you have no reason to not get over here now!”, Misaki replied.

Aichi was silent for a moment as he held the phone.

“Aichi?! Did something happen?”, Misaki asked, sounding concerned.

The others looked confused at Aichi’s behavior. He seemed to have calmed down from his initial fear. His expression was more calm and almost cold. Emi noticed Pusurimon froze looking scared. Kotemon was worried the void was doing something again.

“Fine. I’ll come.”, Aichi replied, simply.

Misaki was put off by the bluenette’s tone. She recognized it far too well…the way Aichi’s voice sounded deeper than normal. Hearing that familiar tone made her more worried than ever before.

“W-wait Aichi-“, Misaki questioned, concern was very visible in her voice before Aichi hung up.

Aichi’s mom and Emi looked completely stunned. Aichi just…hung up on someone. Not just someone, one of his closest friends. They were starting to feel seriously concerned about Aichi now. Had something happened in the Digital World he hadn’t mentioned? Even more so Emi was alarmed because she recognized Aichi’s tone as well. It was the same as ‘that time’ where her brother suddenly became frightening. Something was…very wrong with her brother. She could feel it.

“A-Aichi?! What the heck was that?! Why did you hang up on her?”, Emi questioned.

“Let’s go, Kotemon. Pusurimon, can you keep mom and Emi safe?”, Aichi said as the small Digimon looked up at them.

“Sure? Where are you going, mommy?”, Pusurimon questioned with concern.

“Aichi, what’s going on with you?! You’ve been acting strange!”, his mother questioned.

Kotemon looked at Aichi as he looked over. This completely stunned his mother. She had absolutely no idea why her son was acting like this and it was terrifying.

“Everything’s fine. I will see you two later.”, Aichi said, followed by Kotemon as he quickly left.

Emi got up at this practically about to chase after him herself.

“Wait! Emi, there could be more monsters!”, their mother warned.

“Pusurimon digivolve to…!”, Pusurimon said, suddenly sounding surprised.

Very soon after Pusurimon was engulfed in light stunning them. When the light vanished Pusurimon was bigger again and now bipedal. Its fur was spiky, it now had red claws and pointy ears.

“Herissmon?!”, Pusurimon now Herissmon, said as surprised as they were.

A blue aura was visible around it briefly before quickly fading away. It suddenly felt so much power surging through it. Did Aichi do that?

At Card Capital…

Aichi’s friends looked absolutely stunned as they overheard Misaki’s call with him. Kourin, Naoki, Shingo, Kai, Miwa, Kamui, Morikawa, Izaki, Shin, Reiji and Eiji.

“Maybe you're onto something Izaki. Aichi really is turning into Kai…”, Morikawa said with wide eyes.

Naoki and Shingo noticed how particularly spooked the others were hearing Aichi’s tone of voice. The two of them had never heard it before but it put them on edge especially seeing the others reactions. Kourin lowered her head and Kai was completely silent looking at the wall. Kamui’s fists were shaking, Reiji and Eiji’s mouth’s were agape. Miwa had a serious look and looked over to Misaki as concern flashed on his face. Shin touched Misaki’s shoulder with concern on his his face.

“I was just joking about that. I didn’t think he was really…”, Izaki said as he rubbed his head.

Misaki had a nervous sweat as she stood there gazing at her phone, unable to believe what she heard. The amount of worry that entered her overpowered the anger she felt. She had noticed the startling similarities with Aichi’s behavior to how he was acting then. Her greatest fears were being proven to be correct.

“Misaki…? What the hell?! Why did Aichi do that?! Was he lying to us?!”, Naoki questioned, seeing that as the only explanation.

“I don’t know…but Aichi has been acting strange for over two weeks.”, Misaki replied.

“Something has definitely been seriously up with him. If we caught him before would he have acted like that?”, Shingo questioned.

“Even still there’s no reason to act like that when we’re worried about him! He hasn’t had the hall to talk to Misaki like that since…”, Kamui was saying.

“It’s gall, kiddo.”, Miwa corrected.

“That doesn’t matter! The way he was acting was just like he was during Nationals!”, Kamui replied.

Shingo’s eyes widened as he suddenly remembered how Aichi was in the Nationals. He hadn’t thought about it for awhile and he had only been a spectator then. He thought it was some sort of heel performance considering how nice Aichi proved to be. But, Aichi had later said he couldn’t act confusing him. He remembered Aichi used the same tone there too.

“What the hell has crawled up Aichi’s ass to be acting like this?!”, Naoki thought.

“Nationals?! Was he acting like a complete ass then too?”, Naoki questioned.

Miwa looked over to Kai who frowned deeply. He could see Kai gripping his fist tightly.

Flashback

“That’s…That’s a mistake!”, Aichi said, emotionally as he tried to talk him away from the metaphorical edge.

Flashback end

“This all started after Link Joker…Did it do something to him?!”, Kai thought, full of concern.

Kai suddenly thought of his own words.

Flashback

“You’re going to be locked by me forever!”, he said menacingly.

Flashback end

Kai froze feeling like it was hard to breathe….Did he? Did he really lock Aichi?! It would explain his uncharacteristic behavior…He held onto the reverse for a while. Was it possible for the reverse to hold onto Aichi?

With Aichi…

“Aichi…why are you acting like this? Is the void doing something to you again?”, Kotemon asked.

Aichi looked down at Kotemon as they walked. There was something in Aichi’s gaze both powerful and utterly terrifying.

“I’ve decided what I need to do…”, Aichi replied as Kotemon sweated nervously.

“And what is that?”, Kotemon asked.

“I’m going to get rid of the seed by sealing myself away to protect everyone.”, Aichi said, through the former v-pet.

Kotemon’s eyes widened in shock as he met Aichi’s gaze. Aichi was deadly serious about what he said. His partner could tell very well he meant every word of it without the void’s influence. Kotemon briefly stopped completely stunned by the declaration.

“You don’t agree do you? You want to stop me?”, Aichi said.

“That’s why you were acting so strange…you have been pushing everyone away so they won’t get hurt…”, Kotemon murmured.

That was how strong Aichi’s dedication was to protect everyone. He was willing to do anything to save his loved ones even if they ended up hating him. It was perhaps the ultimate display of loyalty. There was a moment of silence between the pair.

“You are one who is truly noble beyond belief, Aichi.”, Kotemon said as Aichi’s eyes widened.

Shock was visible on Aichi’s face. He had honestly expected to get lectured for suggesting such a thing. Kotemon bowed to Aichi who fully turned around to him.

“There is truly no human more worthy of being my partner.”, Kotemon said.

Aichi smiled warmly at Kotemon, his cold mask completely melting away.

To be continued…in Digimon Tamer ZERO -Earth arc-!

Aichi and co will return!
