Chapter 8
This is The End

Without the three different environments, Spiral Mountain really looks ominous, and dark. Not at all inviting, if they didn't have too Naruto would have been fine with just skipping out on going to the mountain. He wasn't scared; after all he did face off with more powerful ninjas than himself and came out on top. The only thing that really gave him a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach was facing Piedmon. The leader of the Dark Masters, the one that he has yet to face, he has no idea what the digimon is capable of. Though he thought back to his previous battles, the one against Machinedramon, which ended well thanks to some help from Tai, and that Mega was pretty tough in the first place. Then there was MetalSeadramon, he himself only managed to scar the mega. However with the help of his friends they were able to take him down. Puppetmon was the same way, with the help of Kari and TK they were able to put an end to the mega.

The blonde knows that he himself cannot stand alone against the mega, but with his friends by his side he had hope that they could take him down together.

"Hey guys, we're here." Tai announced, he pointed off toward where they first met the mega's when the eight kids came back to the digital world. Naruto looked on; he started to get an alien feeling in his gut, could it be doubt? He's never felt it before, but he didn't know what the mega was capable of. He shook his head to clear it of the thoughts, rather taking on a feeling of assurance toward the battle ahead, hopefully they won't lose. Naruto shook his head to rid those thoughts. 'We can do this, I know we can.'

When they landed they looked around the arena like area for the final dark master, he was nowhere to be found, at first.

The lights suddenly went out, until the spot light fell upon a single figure. It had the built of a man but looked like a crown. Instead of a happy grin, like most, this clown had an evil grin upon his face. "Well, well, well." He started, sounding enthusiastic at the start but finishing with a bored tone. "You defeated my fellow Dark Masters." He stated with a frown as well as a sad tone to his voice. However the frown soon was replaced with a large grin. "Oh well, they were push overs anyway, I get the pleasure of finishing you off myself."

"Don't be so sure about that Piedmon." Tai stated with a determined look, the others answered with a unified 'yeah'.

"Oh, 'don't be so sure' you say?" He smiled.

"Yeah, let's do this guys." Agumon and Gabumon digivolved to their mega forms. Meanwhile the other seven digimon went to their ultimate forms.

"Oh no. Two mega's and seven ultimates?" He had a bit a fake shock in his voice.

"Don't get too cocky Piedmon!" Tai stated. The digimon smirked as the nine started to move forward.

"JewelBeemon, wait." Naruto stated almost to himself, but the digimon heard it. The others paid the two no attention, their focus only on the front at the battle before them. "I don't like this, he's hiding something, I can feel it. I don't know what but I want you to hang back." The digimon nodded, he didn't like it, but he obeyed.

Piedmon back handed a Nova Force, and dodge an Ice Wolf Claw. Then he drew twin daggers, they glowed with an ominous power. He threw the two daggers at the digimon when they hit the two were not only reverted back to their rookie forms but turned into plush key chains. The others gasped at this.

"Retreat!" Naruto yelled, Angewomon was about to be hit by a dagger but was covered by MagneAngemon who took the hit for her. She was shocked and called out to her friend as she reverted back to Gatomon. The other digimon were also turned to plush key chains. Sora, who was shocked about Biomon, took a dagger to the chest turning her to a plush keychain as well. When the others saw this they panicked. Naruto could do nothing as he, and the now Wormmon, stood in shock watching their friends being turned into dolls. Kari was rescued by Gatomon but she was crying a bit, too much to notice the dagger heading toward her. She called out to Tai, but the boy had already been turned. It was Naruto who showed up to knock the dagger off course with his trench knives.

Kari looked up; she saw another dagger heading toward Naruto, without thinking she reacted. "Naruto-kun!" She shoved him to the side and took the dagger in his stead, turning her to a doll and being the last one aside to Naruto and Wormmon.

"Kari-Chan!" Naruto yelled, "You Bastard!" Naruto shouted toward the Dark Master.

He ignored the comment and continued to smile. "You know, you are an interesting little boy, I've been watching you for some time now and I must say that your skills are remarkable. That's something coming from me, and no doubt giving the chance you could defeat me with that skill and one of your gadgets. If I were alone, that is."

"What do you mean by that?" Naruto asked, expecting an army of digimon to come to the mega's aid.

"When I noticed this about you, I had a feeling you weren't from the same place as the other digidestine." He went on not even acknowledging Naruto's response. "So I did some digging and imagine my surprise when I found out where you truly were from. Well, I just had to check out that world so I viewed, all of it. I must say you ninjas were far more powerful than even I could ever hope to be. Of all those techniques there was one that stood out, one that really caught my eye." He began to take up a pondering face, a fingertip tapping his chin as he thought. Naruto meanwhile was too busy glaring at the mega. "What was it, what was it?" He mumbled under his breath as he continued to tap his chin. Then a dark grin came onto the mega's face, "That's right, the Edo Tensei, right?" Naruto's eyes widened, a truly shock look upon his face. "Now while I may not possess this 'Chakra' as you call it, I however do know my way around gadgets. Now while I'm no Datamon, I do get by." He held up some kind of machine like head piece. "I had to run through a few subordinates, poor poor Ladydevimon, however the results from such experiments proved fruitful. I was able to create a machine that could do the same thing as the Edo Tensei." He threw the head piece away, not needing it anymore. "See it breaks down the data of the wearer and reforms to bring back one digimon in prime condition. It took a while to find the perfect sacrifices but thanks to a little raid I found the perfect volunteers." He snapped his fingers as three metal poles rose from the ground; each pole had a digimon tied to it.

It was the digimon that was tied up that shocked the blonde, "No," He breathed out, not wanting to believe what he saw. Each one had a machine head piece on their heads. Pixiemon, Datamon, and Leomon were still out cold but Naruto still called out to the three.

"Ha ha ha ha." The mega was laughing evilly, "Oh but yes, and you can guess who I plan to bring back. I would like to re-introduce to you, MetalSeadramon!" He snapped his fingers, Leomon cried out in pain as he burst into data flakes, only the data flakes reformed into MetalSeadramon.

"I'm back you little bastard!" The digimon roared.

"Puppetmon!" With another snap of his fingers Pixiemon cried out in pain as he too burst into data flakes. The flakes reformed into Puppetmon.

"Hey blondie, did you miss me? Huh? Did ya, did ya, did ya?" He asked happily, and evilly.

"And last, but not least," Datamon's eyes opened up, he made eye contact with Naruto, the blonde shed tears as he stared back, falling to his knees. "Machinedramon!" Piedmon snapped his fingers, and it was Datamon's cry of pain that hurt Naruto the most. In Datamon's place stood Machinedramon, he was the only one who didn't have any words for the blonde. "Now, you see there are four prime condition mega digimon before you. You a small child, skill or no skill not even you and your pet in his ultimate form can even hope to defeat us." He smiled evilly at the blonde, "There is nothing you can do little boy, so just give up."

When Courage is gone. When Friendship is broken. When Hope is out. When there is no more Knowledge. When Love is lost. When there is no m ore Reliability. When there is no more Sincerity. When Light is sacrificed to the darkness. The will to never give up will produce a miracle.

Naruto looked down at the floor, tears still streaming down his face. The digimon's words sparked up a memory, one from his old world when he was fighting a person who destroyed his village. He had said a similar thing to the blonde, and he spat in the guy's face and still defeated him. "No," Naruto let out as he started to get up.

"What was that?" Piedmon asked with glare at the boy.

"I said, 'You give up, on me giving up'!" With that declaration Naruto's digivice glowed, the blonde barely noticed.

A beam of light shot from his digivice to hit Wormmon, "Wormmon warp digivolve to…" The image of Wormmon looked to its left to the image of Stingmon. That image looked up to the image of JewelBeemon, who looked off to the right. A red light shone for a second, but it appeared to be an eye, above a mouth but covered in black armor. Large gauntlets covered where the figures hands should be. In place of his fingers were five black fingers that came to a point. Gray designs were on the large shoulder guards, legs, and arms. On it was what appeared to be wings, but they made an X on his back. They appeared to be metal and around the rims they were red further making them look metallic. "GrandisKuwagamon!" The figure announced his name. He stood towering over the blonde that stood at his base. He seemed to be double or even triple the size of JewelBeemon.

"GrandisKuwagamon?" Naruto asked in mild shock, "Wormmon's mega form, mega form." Naruto looked at the opposing mega's before him and his partner. "I say it's about even now." Naruto stated, he drew his bow and an explosive arrow. "Let's finish this." He fired the arrow straight for MetalSeadramon, he took the arrow straight to the eye, too distracted by the digimon digivolving.

When the arrow exploded it knocked him to the ground rearing in pain. "MY EYE! MY EYE!" He continued to shout over and over as he rolled around trying to stop the pain.

Puppetmon tried to attack the blonde with a hammer shot but the blonde dodged it, "Hold still blondie." He said with a childishness to his voice.

"GrandisKuwagamon, you take on metal head over there," He pointed to the digimon with his drawn arrow. "I'll take on splinter butt." The digimon nodded, he floated and flew to where Machinedramon laid. "Let's finish this you puppet bastard." He fired an arrow at the digimon's feet, he was about to say that he missed, until the arrow exploded. This sent him flying back, Naruto was ready with his twin batons, and he swiped both of the metal poles hitting the digimon in the back hard. He sent him flying again. "What's the matter Puppetmon, I thought you were going to kick my ass, beat me to a pulp, and destroy me." Puppetmon's answer was to fire missiles at the blonde, he zig-zagged out of the way of the oncoming missiles. He made a dash to the mega and threw a punch to his face that cracked the digimon's head a bit while also sending him flying. "Come on, I thought you were in your prime." Now Naruto drew out the Raijin no Ken, the lightning of the blade came out as Puppetmon was getting up. "I'm ending this."

He dashed forward once again; he made a low sweeping motion with the blade at the digimon's legs. The blade sliced right through them, they then busted to data flakes. "My legs!" As soon as he said that and before he could fall to the ground Naruto appeared in front of him making an up and down motion. The mega's arms then met the same fate as his legs. He fell to the ground, weak, so weak that even a low level attack from a rookie could kill him.

Naruto threw away the hilt to the Raijin no Ken, as it was now out of juice. He knelt down to what was left of the mega. "If you're going to kill someone, kill them. Don't stand around talking about it." He placed a black disk that resembled a hockey puck on the digimon's chest. He started to walk off.

"No, no, please wait; don't kill me I'll do anything, anything you want." The digimon begged as the blonde walked off.

Naruto paused in his steps he turned his head to look at the digimon. "Anything I want?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, yes anything just name it, but please don't kill me." Puppetmon begged again.

"Okay," Naruto turned to face the digimon, "I want you to bring back all the digimon that you and the others killed."

"What?" Puppetmon asked in shock, "I-I can't do that."

"Too bad," Naruto turned to walk off once again, pulling out the detonator to the bomb on the digimon's chest. "That's the only thing I want." He pushed the button, ignoring the digimon's scream and the explosion as he walked toward his partner who was looking at him, Machinedramon nowhere to be found.

A few moments earlier..

GrandisKuwagamon arrived in front of his opponent, Machindramon sent a multitude of missiles towards the mega. GrandisKuwagamon held his arms in an X in front of him as the missiles struck his gauntlets. He started to chuckle, "That tickled." He stated in a deep mocking voice. Machindramon growled as he launched his hands toward the mega. He side stepped them as they went past, he struck down at the cables cutting them effortlessly with his gauntlets. "Is that all you got, I thought you were some big bad mega. One who could take on two mega's by himself? Isn't that what you said?" GrandisKuwagamon asked referring to a time a long time ago when he and Naruto first met the mega.

"It's true, and if you'd hold still I'll show you how powerful I am!" Machindramon roared out as he fired more and more missiles.

"Typical." GrandisKuwagamon mumbled under his breath. He held his arms in an ex formation once again. The missiles struck his defense but it didn't budge the other mega. "Now it's my turn, and I am going to end this." He ran towards the Dark Master, he sliced up, down, to the left and to the right with his gauntlets. "Gran Killer" he announced his attack then leapt back. The mega before him burst into a graffiti of data. He heard an explosion and turned to see his partner looking at him.

The two turned their heads as they heard an angry roar coming from where MetalSeadramon was. "I'll kill you boy, for blinding me once again, and degrading my precious armor!" He roared as he fired a white beam at Naruto. The blonde leapt away and toward his partner.

"I see he's still obsessed with his armor as he was before." Naruto turned to his partner; he slipped on the glove that let him perform either the Rasengan or the Chidori. "Let's hit him and hit him hard GrandisKuwagamon." The digimon nodded, he picked up Naruto and threw him toward the wall that was behind MetalSeadramon and off to his blind side. Naruto flipped in the air and landed feet first on the wall. He pumped his legs and, thanks to the plates, launched himself toward MetalSeadramon's defenseless back. His gloved hand started to emit lightning as he brought it back to hit the mega. "Chidori!" Naruto yelled as he struck the shocked mega in the back of the head. The metal being a conductor shocked the digimon even more as he fell to the ground. Naruto landed in front of the digimon as the mega started to recover. He struggled but he was able to right himself. Naruto smirked, "Hey, look out behind you." He said to the mega, who began laugh.

"Like I would fall for that old trick?" He laughed more.

"Suit yourself." Naruto back flipped away, as MetalSeadramon decided to take a look; he was unable to dodge a spinning blade that came right for him. So the result was him being sliced in half by the spinning blades. When he burst into data flakes the blade came back to GrandisKuwagamon who replaced it on his back. "Great job GrandisKuwagamon." Naruto shouted, he heard clapping and turned to see it coming from the last of the Dark Masters.

"Great job indeed, now that you're tired out. It will be a synch to destroy you." Piedmon chuckled.

"Don't be too sure about that, we still got some fight left in us. Right buddy?" Naruto looked to his partner who nodded in agreement.

This made the Dark Master chuckle even more. "Oh you see I am much stronger than my counter parts."

"Oh yeah? Then why do I detect a quiver in your voice?" Naruto asked mockingly.

"Shut up boy!" He yelled, Naruto knew he struck a nerve. He decided to use it to his advantage.

"You are scared, aren't you? You went through all that trouble to bring them back." Naruto disappeared and let his ninja skills come through. He was nowhere to found, but his voice could be heard. "You wanted some more bodies to hide behind. You took out the others the first chance you got. And the only reason why you haven't turned me into a doll is because you know you can't. You know I'm not like them, I can defend myself." Piedmon looked all around trying to find the blonde, but having no luck. "So you're scared, even now you're trying to find a way out."

"Sh-Shut up you insolent boy!" Piedmon roared. "Show yourself!" He yelled.

"Oh poor me, poor me. My digimon nanny never loved me enough. So I decided to take over the world" Naruto mocked in a childish voice. "Hn, pathetic."

"Shut up!" Piedmon roared once again, throwing a dagger at a random spot; when he heard nothing he thought for a second he got the boy.

"That's all you are Piedmon, pathetic, sad excuse for a digimon. Ha, and you call yourself a Dark Master? I've taken dumps that were more fiendish than you." Naruto called mockingly from the shadows.

"Shut up boy, show yourself and I'll just show you how much of a fiend I can be." He proclaimed. "Or you can give up, and I'll let you live long enough to see me wipe out your friends, starting with the little girl."

"I told you Piedmon." The voice sounded close to him, "Give up on me giving up!" Piedmon turned to see a blonde boy with a blue ball in his hand. He would have dodged if he wasn't shocked. "Rasengan!" He thrust the ball into the digimon's chest. With a battle cry Naruto put the rest of the power of the glove into the attack. This sent the Dark Master flying at rapid speed, right into the awaiting blades of GrandisKuwagamon.

"Gah!" Piedmon coughed out as he was forced into the blades. He glared at the boy, 'How, how could one boy destroy all my plans?' With that final thought, the last of the Dark Masters was sent to data flakes. The other digidestine were fine, when the dolls came into contact with the floor, they immediately went back to normal.

"What happened?" Tai asked.

"We won." Naruto said as he came toward the others, he left the glove on the ground behind him. It's power completely depleted.

"Naruto-kun!" Kari shouted as she ran to the boy. "You're okay."

"Did you take out Piedmon all by yourself?" Matt asked.

"He had some help." The others heard from behind them, they turned to see the towering figure of GrandisKuwagamon.

"Whoa, so Wormmon warped digivolved?" Tai asked in shock.

"Yep." As soon as the word left the mega's mouth he glowed and started to shrink, right back to Leafmon. Naruto went to the baby digimon, with Kari following behind him.

"Well I guess that battled took a lot out of you huh bud." Naruto said as he picked up his partner.

"Yeah." Leafmon stated simply as he started to snore. Naruto and the others laughed.

"Hey this means we saved the digital world." Izzy stated as they started to cheer.

"Not quite yet digidestine." A loud demonic voice echoed around them, the floor gave way as they fell through into a dark abyss screaming.

When Naruto opened his eyes he could see that he was in an endless void of darkness. He sat up and looked around him to see the others begin stir awake. Next to him laid Wormmon, who apparently recovered enough energy to digivolve to that state from his baby form. To his other side was Kari, she was started to get up as well. Naruto stood and held out his hand, he helped her up to her feet. Gatomon also stood as well standing next to Wormmon.

"Where are we?" Sora asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

They looked around, but Joe was the only one to look up. "What's that?" He pointed upward above all their heads. Above them was a weird figure, something that was larger than anything they had ever seen. They wondered if it was even a digimon, Naruto observed the figure more to make out A purple hexagon shaped ball with chains coming out of the opened holes, on the end of the chains looked like metallic hands. A black figure that was man shaped came out of the top, peering down at them as his red lined black cape flapped on an invisible wind. "I am Apocalymon." He stated, "I am the head of the Dark Masters and the one that will reshape this digital world."

"Is that another mega?" Tai asked.

"I don't know but we have three now, let's take him down." Matt stated.

Naruto, Tai, and Matt's digivice glowed as did there digimon Partners. The three Mega's soon stood in their spots.

"Don't forget about us." Tentomon announced, him and the other digimon soon digivolved to their ultimate forms.

"Let's take him down." Tai shouted the digimon all fired their own powerful attacks at the digimon. Naruto shot arrow after arrow at the figure.

"Ha, ha, ha!" Apocalymon laughed as the attacks struck him. "You really think those attacks can work on me?" He shot out his clawed hands hitting each one of the digimon, forcing them back to their rookie forms; even Angewomon was in her form Salamon. Naruto reached for another arrow but only grabbed air. His arrows were completely gone.

"Damn, I'm out," He looked to Wormmon, "You okay buddy?" Naruto asked, the digimon nodded.

"You won't be for too long." Apocalymon announced with laughter lacing his words. He sent out a burst of energy, it struck all of them hard sending them to their backs knocked out.

'Can we win?' Naruto heard inside his head, it was the voice of Tai.

'How can we?' Izzy's voice came through.

'Are our thoughts connected now?' Naruto thought, but none answered, soon they all were saying the same thing 'we can't win.' Naruto started to think that as well, 'He's too strong, we can't beat him.'

"Don't give up!" Naruto heard deep within his head, he thought it sounded familiar. It's been a while but he recognized it. 'Kurama?' He asked in his head, but received no answer, 'A memory then?' He asked himself, whether it was a memory or not the voice was right. "We, we can't give up!" Naruto stated with effort as he struggled to stand up.

"He's right." Tai said as well, getting up himself. "We can do this guys we just have to think." The others were soon standing as well.

Naruto looked to his digivice, something, maybe that same voice in his head, but something was telling him to use it. "Our digivice's, guys let's use these." Naruto held up his own digivice.

"Yeah, let's do this." Tai took out his digivice as well. They all followed his lead and pointed them at Apocalymon. White beams of light shot out and wrapped around the dark mega.

"What is this?! No!" He shouted out as the lights started to purify him, slowly he started to be covered with light, and soon light took over the dark void consuming all.

XxX

When Naruto opened his eyes he saw a bright blue sky. He sat up and looked around; his friends were soon sitting up looking around as well. "Is everyone okay?" Naruto asked. Naruto also noticed that his gear was gone, all of it. 'Where's my gear?'

"Did we win?" Tai asked as he and the others stood up, he saw Naruto helping his sister up. Kari hugged the blonde soon after that. "We did, we won!" They started to shout out and celebrate their win over the Dark Masters.

"Congratulations digidestine, you saved the digital world." The old voice of Gennai was heard as they all looked to the old geezer.

"Gennai!" They all shouted out at once running to the old man.

"So everything is back to normal?" Izzy asked.

"Yes even the time frame." Gennai stated.

"Wait, if that's true then," Izzy started to do the math in his head. "Then that means that we only have like two hours to get back to the real world before the busses take off."

"What?!" Tai shouted, "You mean we only have that much time left? Awe man."

"Take this time to say good-bye to your partners, that tram car their will take you back to the real world whenever you are ready." Gennai pointed to the back of them to where they saw a red tram car sitting and waiting for them. As the others went off to talk privately to their digimon friends, Gennai got Naruto's attention. "Naruto, would you come with me please?"

"Where too?" Naruto asked.

"The Sovereigns would like to speak to you." He said this cause Naruto to look at his partner, Gennai saw this, "Yes Wormmon can come too." Naruto picked up his partner and walked toward the old geezer. He placed a hand on the boy; the next thing the blonde knew was that he was standing in a black void. Huge creatures towering above him all looking more powerful than anything he has ever faced.

"Hello Naruto, I am Fanglonmon, I am the one that brought you here." The largest of the beings stated before the boy.

"So does that mean that you can send me home?" Naruto asked anxious, this caused Wormmon to look to the boy with concern. If the blonde were to go then what would he do?

Fanglonmon hesitated; he paused for moments not looking at the boy. Naruto thought he looked as though he was ashamed. "Naruto, about that, I am truly sorry. When I brought you here I did not realize that it was a one way occurrence."

"Wait, you mean you can't send me home?" Naruto had a depressed look on his face. "But what about my friends? My village? Sakura-Chan?" He was finally going to get a date with the pink hair girl, before he had to go off to fight his old friend.

"I am truly sorry. But I can answer those questions with this." A widow came up in front of the boy; looking through it he saw his world. He saw his friends, they were happy. His village looked as though it was at peace. Even the pink hair girl that he loved looked happy and content. She was at a grave, when the mirror showed it, a tear came to the blondes eyes, it was his grave. Then the window shifted to the mountain and next to Tsunade, was Naruto's head carved into the mountain. "You may have left them in that world, but they did make you Hokage." Fanglonmon tried his best to comfort the boy.

"So now what?" Naruto asked as he rubbed his eyes getting rid of the tears.

"Go with the others to the digital world. The others and I will take care of things for you. It's our way of saying thank you for saving the digital world. If it wasn't for you then we would all be lost." He lowered his head and part of his body. "I bow to you, digidestine of determination." With his lead the others, even Zhuqiaomon, bowed before the boy. Even Gennai bowed, Naruto looked around him and to his partner, they were bowing to them. The gods of the digital world.

"Uhm, no problem." Naruto rubbed the back of his head, a sheepish grin on his face.

"Well, it's time to go my boy." Gennai stated grabbing the boy by the shoulder. The world blurred around him as he and Wormmon were sent back to where the others where. Naruto appeared, and Kari went up to him.

"Naruto-kun, where were you?" Kari asked looking over the boy.

"I was just with-" He went to look behind him to see that Gennai was gone. "Just trying to say good-bye to Wormmon." She accepted that and hugged him once again. "Hey do mind giving us a minute? I still need to say some things to Wormmon." Kari nodded and reluctantly went to say more words to Gatomon. Naruto knelt down to the digimon, "I guess this is good-bye buddy."

"Do you have to go? Can't you stay?" Wormmon asked not wanting to say good bye to his friend/partner.

"I gotta go bud, the sovereigns said that they would take care of it. Or whatever." He hugged the bug digimon who hugged him back. "We'll see each other again." Naruto said.

"Yeah, you promise?" Wormmon asked.

"I promise, and you know me."

"You always keep your promises." Wormmon finished for the boy.

"I will be back, but I don't want to find you slouching. You keep training, okay?" Naruto asked/ordered.

"Deal." Wormmon nodded.

"Bye buddy, I'll miss you." Naruto hugged the digimon.

"Me too." They shared the hug for a moment more, before the call from Tai for all to come aboard caused them to break it.

"Bye," Naruto said one more time as he walked to the tram car and got in.

"Bye!" Wormmon shouted as he watched the tram car take off. He decided to get started on his training.

XxX

Even though they asked, dozens of times, Naruto never answered the others why he was coming back with them. Even as he got on the bus, unfortunately he didn't get to get on with Kari, or sit next to anyone that he knew. He looked around, feeling nervous as the counselor/driver called off roll. When he got to the N's that's when Naruto got his shock, not by the fact that his name was called by by the surname. "Namikaze, Naruto?" The man repeated, getting over his shock Naruto raised his hand.

"Here?" Naruto stated, the man gave him a look, and then nodded. The man then went on with the roll call. Naruto sat shocked by what he learned, even as the bus drove off. 'What's going on?'

"What, not used to your surname yet?" A voice in his head asked the same that he heard earlier when he was struggling with Apocalymon.

'Kurama?' Naruto asked in his head, he closed his eyes and tried going to his mindscape. But he found that he couldn't, nor could he see the demon fox. 'Why can't I see you?'

"It's because I was left in the old world, only a very small piece of my consciousness was left behind. From when we connected all those times. You can't see me because I am deep within your consciousness. You can talk to me, but not see me." Kurama explained to Naruto.

'I'm not sure how that works, but okay. Anyway it's just good to have you back Kurama.' Naruto smiled, his eyes still closed as he leaned against the window. 'What have you been doing this whole time?'

"Helping you." Kurama stated plainly.

'Huh?' Naruto was confused now.

"Not directly, but I was able to help sort out the information. All those memories that god Digimon gave you was a lot. Had it not been for me your head might have exploded." Kurama chuckled a bit.

'What's so funny?' Naruto asked.

"You have been having some impure thoughts about that girl." He laughed even more when he could feel Naruto's blush.

'How do you know what I have been thinking? I mean now I wasn't. I mean-'

"Relax, it's fine. Anyway, to answer on how I know that I have access to all you thoughts and memories, I can even control your dreams, somewhat." Kurama explained. If Naruto could see him, he would see the nine tails shrinking, sitting in front of a bulky desk top computer. "It's like all that is in separate files, to help you sort through it this computer formed here. Probably those Sovereigns." He explained further.

'I think I get it.' Naruto stated.

"Hmm, interesting." Kurama muttered.

'What is it?' Naruto asked, his curiosity getting to him.

"Nothing, I'll tell you later, for now just rest up." Naruto didn't hear from him after that, so he decided to just sleep.

XxX

Naruto awoke to the sound of the consoler telling everyone that the trip was made and they were at the bus stop. Naruto stood up; he looked over at the kids as they started to get off the bus. He was at the back of the line, but he didn't care. He still wondered why the Sovereigns wanted him to come back to the real world. What was it that they had for him here? It had to be something, but he didn't know what it could be. When he got off the bus he saw everyone, even his new friends, hugging their parents and telling them they missed them. He had a ping of jealousy in his heart, as it reminded him that he was an orphan. His head hung low as he started to walk off to try and figure things out.

"Naruto!" His head shot up, he recognized that voice, it was still fresh in his mind from when he fought Kurama. "Naruto, where are you?" He looked over, tears started to gather in his eyes, he saw a tall fit women wearing a green sundress. She had on a whit sun hat that covered her long red hair.

"Mom?" Naruto called and asked at the same time, when he was sure of it he ran to the woman. "Mom!"

He tackled her causing her to fall back on her butt from her kneeling position. "Naruto, honey it's only been three months."

'Three months?' Naruto asked in his head, just what exactly is going on though. It's almost as if he was meant to be in this world. It was strange, but right now he didn't care, he had his mom here, if only-

"Kushina?" He heard a man's voice call out, his eyes widened at that, he looked up to see a man with wild bushy blonde spikey hair coming their way. He had on a blue shirt under a white button up shirt that was left open. Blue shorts that went a bit past his knees.

"Dad?" Naruto asked, "Dad!"

"Hey there buddy, your acting like you haven't seen me your whole life." Naruto wished he could make sense of this, but at the same time he didn't care. It seemed like a dream, but it felt too real to be so.

"I just really missed you guys." Naruto said instead of telling them what was on his mind. He didn't care either way, all he knew was that these were his parents and this was his new home now. It still hurt a bit, having to leave behind his old world. But now all his fears about this place were gone upon seeing his parents.

"Minato, do you think it was really a good idea to send him off to camp." Kushina asked lifting up her son to hold him close. "He's still young and had no older brother to look out for him."

"Kushina, it's fine, as long as he made some friends. So did you, Naruto?" His father asked him.

"Yeah, I did." He wanted to at least tell them about the digital world, but he thought better of it. Deciding instead that now was not the time. "Actually I want to say by to them real quick." Naruto got down to his feet and went off to find his friends. He grabbed his head as it started to hurt, soon new memories started to flood his mind, ones of him and his parents going on trips, his dad showing him how to play soccer. His mom helping him feel better after he scrapped his knee. All these memories of him with his parents. Even the latest one of before he went on the summer camp trip. According to the memory his parents wanted him to go off to summer camp to make friends. He was starting at the new school so they wanted him to know somebody when he did. And the rest is history as they say. 'What was that?'

"Sorry kid, didn't realize it be that much. I opened up your stored memories that the sovereigns left in here." Kurama explained the reason for the slight headache.

Naruto decided to just shake it off and try to find his friends, "Kari-Chan?" Naruto called out when he saw the girl; she turned to him and immediately ran up to see him.

"Naruto-kun." She stated as she wrapped her arms around him. He returned the hug.

"I wanted to say bye, and I'll see you around, okay?" Naruto said to her, she looked at him confused.

"What do you mean by that?" She asked.

"It's a surprise." Naruto knew that the school he'd be starting is the same one that she goes to, so he wanted to surprise her. "See you later guys." Naruto called, they shouted back their own good bye's as well. He went up to TK, "Hey, great job TK." Naruto held out his fist for a fist bump.

TK looked at the fist, then smiled, he had a new and, possibly, best friend. "You too Naruto." They bumped fists. "Let's come up with a secret hand shake sometime." He stated.

Naruto laughed, he did like the idea. "Sounds good to me, see you later." With one last good bye to Kari, Naruto ran off to meet back up with his parents. "Ready when you are." He smiled truly smiled when he held his mother's hand as she followed their father. He was ready and willing to be a part of this new world.

The End

(A/N: Surprise! Naruto got his parents back. Yes they will be in my story. I have been wanted to do that from the beginning. Don't ask how they are there, it's too much for me to explain. Naruto doesn't care so why should you? Anyway, that's it this story is completely done. What's that? "2Shadowwriter2 What about 'Our War Games' aren't you going to do that?" No, I am not going to write out the entire movie, it's a waste of time seeing as how I don't have Naruto doing anything. Damn gave myself away, I did take a scene and re-wrote it a tad, just to show you that the story goes along the normal route. And to show that Naruto was included in some way. Well here you go, hope you enjoy this little scene)

D:NA-Our War Game

"Hello?" Tai asked over the phone, his voice signifying that he was in a hurry. "Is joe there?" He waited for a moment, "test? Oh he's the only kid I know who volunteer's for summer school." He hung up the phone and tried another number. "Hello can I talk to Matt or TK please." Tai waited for the person on the other end to talk. "They're visiting their grandmother in the country?" He asked for the number real quick, he then dialed the given number. "Be there, be there, be there."

"Hello?" Came an eldlerly voice.

"This is Tai."

"Oh you're selling ties?" The old woman asked. Matt and TK, who were siting behind the woman, glanced over at her.

"No my name is Tai." The woman nodded, "Is Matt or TK there."

"What a coincidence those are my grandkids names." The woman stated.

"I'd like to talk to them please."

"Oh, I like to talk to them too." The woman stated, oblivious to the situation the boy was in.

"Can you put them on the phone?"

"Okay hold on." She hung up the phone, "Kids!"

Tai could not believe that the woman hung up, "This can't be happening."

"Izzy," Tai's mother called, "would you like some potato juice?"

"I'd love some." Izzy replied as he sat at the table behind Tai.

"Hey I got Mimi's machine." Tai announced looking over at Izzy.

"I can't get Tai to try any of my recipes." Tai's mom stated as she worked in the kitchen.

"Well I like them." Izzy said politely drinking the offered potato juice.

"Oh, you want some of my spinach cookies?" The woman asked.

"Boy that girl loves to talk." Tai said; he couldn't get a word in on Mimi's machine due to her message being so long. "Hey mom, did Kari bring her cell phone with her?"

"Yes but It's for emergencies only." His mom mentioned.

"What does she think this is?" Tai asked no one under his breath as he looked for the cell number.

"But I can't come home," Kari mentioned in the phone, she was at a friend's birthday party and the phone disrupted the birthday girls cake moment. "The magician is coming soon and I volunteer to be sawed in half."

"Well tell the half with feet to come home." Tai yelled over the phone, he then slammed it down. "Geez, well let's try Naruto." Tai tried the blondes number.

"Hello!" Came what sounded like a group of people's voice.

"You reached Minato,"

"Kushina."

"Naruto."

"Leave a message after the beep, BEEP!" They all said at once, again.

"Hi it's Tai, Naruto when you get this call me back it's an emergency." Tai hung his head as he put the phone down.

"Oh were you trying to call Naruto just now?" Tai's mom asked from the kitchen, she was working on some spinach cookies.

"Yeah, I got the machine." Tai answered with his shoulders hung low.

"I remember Kari saying something about him…" The woman trailed off trying to remember.

"What? What was it?" Tai asked anxious to hear what it was that he didn't know.

"Ah, I remember now, she was telling me how she was going to miss him 'cause he was going overseas for the summer. I think he and his family are going to an amusement park or two."

"Oh, well that explains it then." Tai mentioned, he was about to give the phone to Izzy to try Sora, but his moms next words stopped him.

"He did give Kari a number to try calling him in case she wanted to talk or something." She mentioned as an afterthought.

"Where's the number?" Tai asked in a panic.

"Calm down, it's over there on the pad." She mentioned, she then saw Izzy shaking some flour, "Wow Izzy you're a natural in the kitchen, just like me." She giggled.

Tai dialed the number on the pad, it rung but then it went to voicemail. "Hi it's Tai, I need to speak to Naruto, please have him call me back." He gave the number to his home phone. After which he threw the phone to Izzy.

Later elsewhere..

Kushina, Naruto's mom, went to the storage lockers of the amusement park to grab her things she left in there. They had just gotten off a roller coaster ride, and even though she didn't want to go on it at first, she rather liked it. It was nearing closing time so they had to pick up all the stuff they had brought with, she pulled out the cell phone as the voice mail alarm went off. This told her of what she thought; her cell phone had a miss call and a voicemail. Looking at the number she recognized it to be a number from Japan. She turned to her husband and son, Naruto was being given a piggy back ride by Minato while they waited for her. She could see her son was smiling and laughing happily. "Hey, a number from back home called me."

"Any idea who it is?" Minato asked setting his son down. The two then walked over to the red headed woman.

"No do you recognize the number?" She handed the phone to the older blonde.

Minato shook his head. "No I don't what about you Naruto?" He handed the phone to his son.

"Hey, that's Kari-Chan's home number." Naruto stated.

"Oh your little girlfriend?" Kushina teased with a sly grin.

"No mom, she's just a friend. I gave her your cell number in case she wanted to talk to me while I was away." Naruto defended with a blush.

"Uh huh, sure." She smiled, then she took the phone from her son, "well she left a voicemail message, hang on." She activated the voicemail, and then handed the phone back to her son.

Naruto listened to the message, "it's Tai, her older brother, he sounds like he's in a panic." Naruto hung up the voicemail then redialed the number that called. Only when he tried to call it sounded like it was busy. "Okay, well he tries to call me then it's busy? It must not be that important then I guess." Naruto gave the phone back to his mom, 'This is probably like the time where he found that stupid cat video. Although I gotta say that cat was talented at the keyboard.' Naruto smiled at that thought.

"Let's get back to the hotel, we still got Disney World to hit tomorrow." Minato stated getting a happy yell from Naruto. They walked on with the voicemail in the back of their minds, unknown to them of the danger that Tai and the others are facing.

(A/N: Yes it also had the purpose to show how happy Naruto is with his parents. I was going to have him help out, but couldn't figure out how to include him without him being the hero. So I went this way, hope you liked it, I sure did it was kind of sweet to see Naruto with his parents having fun. So what did you think about the story as a whole? What was your favorite part? Will you be looking forward to the sequel to this? That will come out soon, maybe today, maybe when I got off work. Well, tell me in a review what you thought. I hope you like the story in a whole but let me know. I do want to know what you guys thought about Naruto taking on all four Dark Masters with just Wormmon's mega form as help. Well ttfn, ta ta for now.)
