Disclaimer: Digimon Adventure 02 and its characters were created by Bandai, not me. The same is true of Digimon Tamers, Digimon Frontier and Digimon X Evolution.

Author's Notes: This is set two years after the defeat of Belial Vamdemon, known to those who have only seen the dub as Malo Myotismon. I also base this on the information that since this season took place three years after the first season (summer 1999) in 2002, and the assumption that the overall storyline progressed through the course of a year ending a little ways into the start of 2003. That makes this 2005.

Revival of Millenniumon

Attention All Chosen Children,

Sorry to be waking you this early, but it seems that an old nemesis has resurfaced in the digital world. Perhaps you remember the name, Chimeramon. You know the drill, let's get to work!

Koushiro

"I thought," Daisuke yawned, "Magnamon destroyed Chimeramon." He stretched, giving an appreciative nod in Chibimon's direction.

"Remember, we thought the same thing about Vamdemon," noted Koushiro as he examined the assembled chosen children.

Ken seemed distraught. "Why did it have to be Chimeramon," he mumbled to himself. It was clear that he hadn't really forgiven himself for having ever created that monster.

"Don't worry, we've got this victory in the bag," Daisuke had apparently chosen this particular moment to finally wake up enough to acknowledge the situation.

Takeru nodded, "Daisuke might actually be onto something. Even Chimeramon shouldn't be able to stand up against Imperialdramon."

"Aren't you boys forgetting something?" Miyako chimed in. "We still have to get to the digital world first."

---

Chimeramon wasn't a difficult enemy to track down. He was huge, powerful and seemed to be making use of the knowledge that if he demolished enough villages, mountains, forests and the various other realms included in the scheme of the digital world, the chosen children would come running to stop him. More accurately, they came in flying. And with Imperialdramon, they arrived in record time.

"Come on, let's ambush the big ugly monster before he knows what hit him," Daisuke threw a fist in the air to match his enthusiasm over getting this over with quickly. After all, the sooner they got rid of Chimeramon, the sooner he could get back to bed until a much more sensible hour for his being awake.

"Something isn't right here," there was a brief pause in the action department as Hikari spoke.

"Why isn't Chimeramon attacking?" commented Iori.

"Perhaps he's waiting for us to make the first move," suggested Ryo.

"With pleasure," announced Cyberdramon with a growl. He leapt from the safe zone of Imperialdramon's back and flung himself at the still unresponsive form of Chimeramon, claws extended and surrounded by the usual flow of power. "Cyber Nail!" He was easily captured in one of the larger digimon's many arms, despite being at the same evolutionary level as his opponent.

"Eh," Ryo sighed. "I didn't mean like that."

"I guess we don't have a lot of choice now," noted Takeru. "We'll just have to leave this to Imperialdramon."

The massive dragon digimon waited until his passengers were safely out of range. Then in a spectacular display of the digital world's ingenuity, "Imperialdramon Mode Changing!" he was able to transform into his more appropriate warrior form, "Fighter Form!" The cannon on his right arm rotated into position and he immediately targeted Chimeramon, careful to avoid hitting Cyberdramon in the process. "Positron Laser!"

Chimeramon took the full force of the blast without flinching. Unknown to the chosen children, he had been extracting data from Cyberdramon until the dragon warrior de-evolved back into Monodramon and was cast aside. It didn't take long for Ryo to realize what was about to happen next. In the time it took for him to retrieve his fallen partner, Chimeramon had already transformed into the new Millenniumon.

"Dimension Destroyer!"

Guilmon's eyes narrowed into slits as a dark portal began to take shape in the sky above the Hypnos building. Hearing the low growl coming from his partner, Takato was immediately concerned.

"What's the matter Guilmon?" he cast a glance in the direction Guilmon seemed to be staring in and could already see the dark clouds gathering around the heart of the portal. He frowned, "I don't think that's the gateway into the digital world..."

---

"Jen, you might wanna take a look at this," Terriermon was practically glued to the window.

Jenrya looked away from the monitor of his computer to acknowledge his partner, "I'm almost finished with my homework. Can't it wait?"

"I don't think it wants to," replied Terriermon ushering him over.

---

Naturally Ruki was already making a beeline for the center of the disturbance zone with Renamon nowhere in sight. As usual, she was determined to get to the bottom of things before anyone else had much of a chance to find out.

---

Hirokazu and Kenta weren't far from where Takato kept Guilmon hidden at the park, so once they noticed the strange disturbance in the sky they immediately headed over with Guardromon and Marine Angemon.

---

Eventually, one way or another, the other tamers became aware of the strange happenings surrounding the familiar shape of the Hypnos building. Those who were able immediately made to gather at the park with their respective digimon.

---

As a similar disturbance manifested in yet another of the digital worlds, Ophanimon immediately sent a distress signal to those humans she knew would answer to her summoning. Unknown to them, something much more frightening than Lucemon was lurking about.

---

Tokomon trembled fearfully as a terrible chill fell over the Urd Terminal of the New Digital World. Dorumon glanced skyward, able to sense the dark aura that was being transmitted through the spiraling gap between the clouds.

"It's scary," Tokomon cowered between the beast-dragon digimon's wings.

Dorumon nodded, "It's likely to be dangerous."

---

All at once, Imperialdramon was reduced to V-mon and Wormmon. The chosen children and their digimon were scattered, thrown to the dimensional abyss by Millenniumon ability to alter the flow of time itself. Where they would emerge, only time would tell.

---

Koushiro frowned at the data that had begun compiling on the his monitor, "What in the world is happening! It's like they all just disappeared!"

---

The Dark Area that had been generated by the power borrowed from the Dark Net Ocean began to expand further into the digital world. Beyond the cave Daemon had already been residing in, the surrounding forest became encompassed with shadow.

Daemon seemed unusually pleased.

"So, the cycle has begun again."
