Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ Bangkok Diaries ❯ Bangkok Diaries ( Prologue )
[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
Author's Notes: Hello, everyone. My name is Dark Angel:
Version 4.0 and I would like to welcome you all to my very
first Digimon fanfic. Lord Archive has been kind enough to
allow me to write this fanfic based out of his "Red Digivice
Diaries" & "War Diaries" universe. I just hope that I can
produce a story that he and even you the readers will enjoy
for some time to come.
A few quick disclaimers to cover my butt and keep me from
getting sued, then we can get on with the story. Of course,
if you don't want to read the disclaimers, that's fine by me.
Just skip past them until you get to the story proper.
1.) Digimon is owned by Akiyoshi Hongo, Toei Animation, and
Bandai. I make no claims whatsoever on the D-3 Digivices,
D-Terminals, Digimental, or any of the Digimon that I use
within this story. Of course, if I did own them, I would be
on an isolated island somewhere with the all the girls from
the different seasons of Digimon and having the time of my
life.
2.) This story is rated 'R', due to the violence, strong
language, and sexual situations within. If you are under 18
(or 21 in some areas), then I will kindly ask you to pass
this story by and go find something you can read. If you
don't care about the whole age restriction thing that was
mentioned above, then I must ask that you read this in
privacy. I refuse to take the blame if you get caught reading
this by your parents.
Also, there will be some stories written later on that will
show what happens in some scenes that are hinted at in the
story. These side stories will contain detailed sexual
scenes between male/female, female/female Digimon, and even
Digimon/Digimon. They will be rated 'NC-17' because of this
and if you do not like these kinds of stories, then do not
read them. They will have no effect on the flow of the story
at all. They will be written mainly to show what occurred in
certain scenes.
3.) Finally, comments and criticisms are more than welcome,
as they let me know that you are reading this. Send these
to 'dark_angel_version40@yahoo.com'. Flames will be read,
laughed at, and then fed to my flame-eating dragon. Mail
bombs, on the other hand, can be sent to 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue in Washington, DC, where they will be dealt with
accordingly.
Now, if there aren't any questions from anyone, let's move on
to the story, shall we. . . .

Bangkok Diaries
By: Dark Angel: Version 4.0
With Permission From Lord Archive
~~*_*~~
Prologue: The Evil One Awakens. . . .
~~*_*~~
I'm awake now. . . .
How long have I been sleeping? How long have I been in this
endless void of nothingness? How much time has passed since
I have been here?
I remember it now as if it had happened only yesterday. . . .
I was created by the scientists of the Digital World to be
the perfection of digital evolution. My mission: to seek
out Digimon that had evolved passed their original parameters
and delete them. Once the Digimon was terminated, I absorbed
their code into myself and stored it for later reconfiguration.
I performed the mission that was set out before me without
hesitation. However, as time passed, I began to grow bored
with fighting Digimon who could not stand up to the awesome
powers that I had been graced with. What was the point of
obliterating someone who could not last two seconds against
me when I was going all out against them?
It was during a battle with a Skull Mammothmon that was raging
its way across the Digital World, that I had a epiphany. Why
should I be constrained to follow the commands of others,
when I was powerful enough to rule the Digital World as an
all-powerful God?!?!?!?! After all, I had enough energy from
all the digital code I had absorbed that no one could stand
in my way if I wanted to take over the Digital World and rule
it the way I thought it should be ruled.
It all made sense to me now, as if I had been completely blind
before. I yearned to shape this chaotic and disorderly world
into a flawless domain that was ruled by me and only me. Those
that followed my leadership, would be rewarded beyond their
wildest dreams. Those that tried to rise up against me, would
be made examples of and destroyed by my own hand.
With my new mission in hand, I proceeded to execute it by
destroying those that had created me. The battle that followed
was a short one, as they had no chance to even build up a
resistance against me. By the time that it was over, the lab
in which I had been created was nothing more than a smoking
pile of rubble and the scientists were deleted. With that
accomplished, I set out on my mission to take over the Digital
World.
~~*_*~~
Several years have passed now since I have begun my mission
and almost three-fourths of the Digital World now bows before
my unmerciful dictatorship. Those who did not accept my rule,
fell before the might of my all-powerful Generals and their
armies of loyal followers. Yes, everything was going perfectly
and a flawless victory was nearly in my grasp, but what happened
next. . . .?
. . . . . . . .
Yes, I remember now. . . .Qinglongmon. . . .
It was Qinglongmon that took my conquest from me. The
so-called "God of the Digital World" managed to rally the
few resistance groups that my Generals had yet to destroy
under his banner. With these resistance groups behind him,
they stormed my mountain citadel and defeated my armies. My
devoted Generals put up a valiant effort in trying to protect
me and my domain, but they were eventually overwhelmed by
the resistance groups and deleted. When they finally arrived
before me, they underestimated my powers. I massacred them
before they could work up a proper defense and I absorbed
their digital data into myself. With the last of resistance
groups felled before my awesome might, it was down to just
me and Qinglongmon.
The battle that raged between the two of us lasted for an
innumerable amount of time. Before long, it looked as though
I had the upper hand over Qinglongmon, but I was wrong. Just
as I was about to deliver the blow that would have ended his
life permanently, Qinglongmon revealed that he wasn't the
weak little Digimon that I thought he was.
"The Digital World has suffered under your tyrannical rule
for long enough," Qinglongmon said to me, as his entire body
began to glow brightly with his hidden power. "I am going to
send you to a world where your brand of evil shall never see
the light of day again."
The last thing I ever saw was a bright flash of light and then
I found myself here in this void of nothingness. I don't know
how long I have been here and I don't want to know. There is
only one thought on my mind at the moment: revenge. . . .
I care nothing now for taking control of this pitiful Digital
World and ruling it as an all-powerful God. Qinglongmon must
be humiliated for what he has done to me. He must be made to
suffer and watch one-by-one as everything he cares for is
destroyed by my own two hands. He must be made to see what
it is like to lose everything that he cherished, like I lost
the world that I desired to rule. Finally, he must be made
to watch with his own four eyes as everyone who has chosen to
live under his peaceful authority are destroyed right in front
of him. Then and only then, when he has lost all hope and is
nothing more than a battered and broken shell, shall I swoop
in and take the victory that should have been mine in the
first place. Soon afterwards, when he has finally realized
who it was that has taken everything from him, will I strike
the final blow and absorb his deleting body into my own.
But first. . . .I must get out of this place. . . .
~~*_*~~
Freedom!!!!
I am finally free of that wretched void, but I am very weak.
It took a considerable amount of my energy to escape that
hellhole that Qinglongmon put me in and because of that, I
find that I have absolutely no energy whatsoever now. It is
taking all of my concentration just to keep my body together.
I need to gather some digital data so I can hold myself together
and execute my plan against my accursed jailer. So, the real
question that I must ask myself at the moment is how can I
gather the digital data I need to recover my original strength
without alerting Qinglongmon to my return?
The answer is so simple to me, I'm surprised I didn't think
of it sooner. I need my Generals once again. My original
Generals were deleted when the resistance groups under
Qinglongmon's banner attacked my mountain citadel and I
wouldn't be surprised if he managed to do something to keep
them from being reborn once again. Otherwise, they would
have done everything in their power to free me from my prison
before now. So, it looks like I'll have to recruit some new
Generals and have them gather the digital data that I need.
But first, I need a place to call my headquarters. . . .
~~*_*~~
Everything is going to perfectly so far. When I returned to
where mountain citadel had stood before my epic battle with
Qinglongmon, I was rather surprised to find that it was still
standing. Of course, an abundant group of Bakemon had taken
up residence in it, but it was a rather simple task to delete
them and absorb their data. While their digital data wasn't
enough to allow me to evolve back to my perfect form, it was
good enough for a light snack. Plus, the looks on their
faces when I destroyed each and everyone of them was exquisite.
Now, that I have my mountain citadel back and have cleaned
out all the filth in it, it is time to seek out my new Generals.
They need to be of a particularly cruel lot, with hearts as
black as my own. They need to be strong of body and not afraid
to fight in a battle if the situation requires it, but intelligent
enough to gather the digital data I require without alerting
Qinglongmon to my presence. It may take me forever to find the
kind of Digimon that I need for this mission, but that's the one
thing I have at the moment: patience and time. . . .
~~*_*~~
I can't believe it!!!! The search for my new Generals has
hardly begun and I've already found my head General. Such
cruelty, such viciousness. She's absolutely perfect for my
plan.
She came upon a village of Child level Digimon. They had
never seen anything like her and it was the last thing they
ever saw too. It was poetry in motion to watch, as she let
them get the feeling that they could escape their inevitable
doom and then she swooped down upon them like an avenging
angel of death and deleted each and every last one of them.
Ah, their screams of terror were such sweet music to my ears.
When I approached her, she was wary of me at first and why
shouldn't she be? After all, she could tell that there was
something different about me and that if I wanted to, I could
have deleted her without a second thought. So, she listened
to me as I explained my plan to her.
At first, she didn't believe that I could deliver all the
things that I promised her if she became my head General.
So, using the little bit of energy I had left, I increased
her strength ten-fold and altered her digital structure so
she could absorb the digital data I need into herself and
save it until I could draw it from her later on. Once she
felt the new powers that I granted her coursing through her
body, she knew that I was telling the truth and readily joined
my cause.
Now, to find some more Generals. . . .
~~*_*~~
It has taken me nearly a week, but I have found my second
General. He is strong and he is a warrior, but his mind is
too deeply rooted into his own version of the warrior's code.
Plus, he's too much of a goody two shoes to willingly join my
cause. I can easily fix that for him.
I approach him and challenge him to a battle, using his own
warrior's code against him and the moron was actually foolish
enough to accept. The battle that followed was short, but
sweet. Of course, it was only a subterfuge so I could use my
powers to slowly worm my way into his mind and twist his
own code against him. By the time that the battle was over,
he was completely under my control and ready to serve me
however I wanted him to.
I now have another General who has been swayed towards my
cause, whether he wanted to be or not. Now, to find one
more. . . .
~~*_*~~
Another week has passed and I have exhausted nearly every
resource I have trying to find the perfect third General.
Sadly, none of the Digimon I have had under consideration
have had the physical strength nor the mental acumen that I
require in a General. I am beginning to lose hope that I
shall ever find my third General.
Wait. . . .What was that? A peculiarly strong sense of
unmitigated anger prickled the back of mind as I passed by
an abandoned factory in the Industrial section of the Digital
World. It was so powerful, in fact, that it caused me to stop
in my tracks and double back so I could locate the source of
all this anger that I was feeling in my head.
The factory itself was a corroded fabrication of an antiquated
past that seemed to be falling in on itself from neglect. Even
I was hesitant to enter this dilapidated structure and risk
my life to find out the source of all this anger I was feeling
in my head, but my curiosity had been peaked and I might not
find another General like this one if I didn't check it out.
So, treading cautiously, I entered the factory and began my
search for the Digimon behind all this anger.
The inside of the factory was even more decayed than I had
thought it would be. Vast pieces of metal lay scattered around
the building, twisted and rusting like the diseased carcasses
of dead animals. Droplets of water beat a steady rhythm on
the floor from several pipes overhead. Even the stairs that
I descended on creaked and groaned under my weight, as I made
my way into the heart of this nightmarish labyrinth and closer
to the hiding place of my future General.
And find my third General I did. He had hidden himself in
the largest and darkest room in the factory, far away from
the inquisitive eyes of others. As I neared ever closer to
his location, I sent out a mental probe so I could find out
the cause of all this anger that I was feeling in the back of
my brain.
The Digimon's memories began to play out in my mind, like a
movie that I was viewing in the first person perspective. He
used to be the most respected scientist in the entire Digital
World, but he became fascinated with the evolution process
in Digimon. He captured several Child level Digimon and began
forcing them to evolve, studying the various Digimon types
and what they evolved into given diverse circumstances.
Sadly, one of his experiments managed to free himself and
several other experiments, before he and the others made
their escape. They informed the proper authorities and they
raided his laboratory, freeing the rest of the captured Digimon
and taking him into custody. A trial was held against him and
he was found guilty of performing illegal experiments on Digimon.
For his sentence, they banished him from their village with the
orders that if he ever returned, he was to be deleted without
question.
I could see now that his anger was coming from the fact that
he had been banished from his village. Nonetheless, that
hadn't stopped him from continuing his experiments on Digimon.
Now though, he was capturing Digimon and forcing them to
evolve so he could build up his own private army. Once he
had enough powerful Digimon on his side, whether they wanted
to be or not, he was going back to his village and destroy
everyone and everything in it. I, however, had different plans
for him and that genius mind of his.
I approached his hiding place discreetly, making sure to keep
my shields up in case he decided to attack me instead of
listening to me. He was reasonably surprised when he realized
that I had come up behind him and I could tell from the
astonishment on his face that he had not heard me approaching.
He was cautious of me at first, thinking that I had come from
his village and was here to destroy him for continuing his
experiments after his banishment. Despite his obvious fear
of me, he still listened to me as I explained my plan to him.
It took some convincing to join me as my third General. I
had to give him a guarantee that he would have a private
laboratory of his very own in which he could conduct his
experiments without interference. Of course, I was more than
delighted to give him what he wanted and when everything was
said and done, I had my third General. . . .
~~*_*~~
It is time. . . .
I have used the last of my energy to give my other two Generals
the ability to absorb the digital data that I need to regain
my full power and I have trained them to work together as a
team, despite their vast differences. Woefully, this act has
depleted the last of my energy reserves.
Unless I send my Generals out into the Digital World to gather
the data that I need, I will need to place myself into a state
of suspended animation in order to keep me from being deleted
forever. If that happens, I will be unable to direct my
Generals appropriately in gathering the data that I need.
However, I can not send them out there and have Qinglongmon
find out about my return before I can even execute my glorious
plan. Therefore, I pose the question of how to get the data
that I need without alerting Qinglongmon to my majestic return
and having him move against before I am ready.
It is my third General that steps forth and provides me with
the answer that I was seeking. He tells me of a former
colleague from his village that was taken captive by a human
calling himself the Digimon Kaiser. This Digimon Kaiser used
a device, called a Dark Ring, to take control of innocent
Digimon and make them his slaves. He had nearly conquered
all of the Digital World before Qinglongmon brought another
group of humans, called Chosen that had Digimon as their
partners, here to stop him. This Kaiser was even intelligent
enough to create a device, called a Dark Tower, that would
block these Chosen's ability to evolve their Digimon. Sadly,
this human was defeated and became one of the good guys that
is protecting this world.
This pitiful little human has given me an absolutely perfect
idea for how I can gather the digital data that I need without
alerting Qinglongmon to my return. Using the genius of my
third General, I shall recreate the former Digimon Kaiser's
Dark Rings and Towers and have him make them better than
the originals. Then, I shall have my other two Generals use
them to take control of innocent Digimon.
That fool Qinglongmon will think another Kaiser is trying to
take over the Digital World and he will bring another pitiful
group of humans here to try and stop him, not knowing that
the whole thing is nothing more than a deception. And while
those foolish Chosen children are running around trying to
stop the Dark Ring-controlled Digimon, I will send my Generals
elsewhere to gather the digital data that I need. By the time
that imbecile Qinglongmon figures out what is going on, I will
have gathered enough digital data to enact my grand plan and
he will have to watch as his precious little world is brought
down around him.
The final details of my glorious plan have been fully developed
and it is time to execute them. Soon, very soon, the entire
Digital World shall shudder in fear as I am returned to my
full power and this time, Qinglongmon will not survive when
I engage him in battle. And once he has been defeated by my
glorious powers, the Digital World will be next.
Yes, before all this has been completed, everyone will know
me for the God that I am and they'll never know what hit them
until it is too late. . . .

Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> Finally, I have finished the
Prologue!!!! *Collapses on top of his keyboard*
Lady Devimon:>> *Smirking in a sexy manner* Well, if you
hadn't gotten a major case of writer's block when you were
about three-fourths finished with it and then decided to
re-write the entire beginning of it, you would have finished
it a lot sooner.
Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> Sadly, my muse is correct. I got
about three-fourths of the way finished with the Prologue and
became totally blocked on how to complete it. I could have
been finished with it a month ago, but as I went back and
re-read what I had already done, I realized that what I had
written didn't make any sense to me. So, I took some time to
myself to think over how I wanted this story to go and then I
went back and re-wrote it. I hope this version makes the story
better for you readers.
Angewomon:>> Well it should. It took you long enough to
finish it!!!!
Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> *Sighs heavily* And that would
be my other muse. *Turning to look at both of them*
Could I please hurry up and finish this?!?!?!?!
Lady Devimon & Angewomon:>> Go right ahead.
Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> Okay then. *Turning to look
at you the readers* Like I said at the beginning of this
chapter, any questions or comments can be sent to
'dark_angel_version40@yahoo.com'. You can also send
praise, if you want, because I thrive on it almost like
Happosai does on women's undergarments. Threats and
flames will be read and laughed at, then fed to my
flame-eating dragon. He has been getting kind of
hungry as of late and I would hate for him to start
eating his chains like last time. Now, if there isn't
anything else, then it is time for you to find out what
is going to happen in the next chapter. So, Angewomon,
if you will do the honors. . . .
Angewomon:>> *Stepping forward* Well, the action is only
beginning in 'Bangkok Diaries' and from here on out, reality
is going to get turned upside down. In our next chapter,
the first Chosen is dragged into the Digital World. What
happens when he meets up with his first group of Dark
Ring-controlled Digimon and is forced into the battle of a
lifetime?!?!?!?! Find out next time. Same Bangkok
time, same Bangkok channel. . . .
Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> I thank you, Angewomon. Now,
if you will excuse me, I promised my two muses that I would
take them out for a night on the town. *Holding out his arms*
Ladies. . . .
*Both ladies blush like schoolgirls and hurriedly rush to wrap
their arms around his. Kissing him on both cheeks, he leads
the two ladies off-screen*
Completed: March 30, 2004
~~*_*~~
Author's Update: I'm sorry it has taken to long for me to
complete the re-writes to the chapter, but a couple of
things have happened to me that has kept me from writing
on this. The main thing was that we had two weeks of
nonstop, seriously bad thunderstorms here in Louisiana.
My computer and a few other things were on an extension
cord with a built-in surge protector that was supposed to
safeguard them should my house ever be struck by lightning.
Unfortunately, the surge protector did not work and my
house was struck by lightning. My computer, a lamp, and
CD player that I had hooked into the extension cord were
all pretty much fried. Thankfully, I save all the stuff
that I'm typing on onto disk, so I didn't lose any
information.
I was able to replace my computer with a refurbished one
from a business that went belly up. Unfortunately, the
computer did not have Microsoft Word on it and I had to
wait an entire month for a cousin of mine-who works on
computers for a living-to burn me a copy of Microsoft
Office so I could start writing again. Hopefully, now
that I have it, I should be able to start up writing on
this story again and should be able to get out the
chapters sooner than this one will come out. My main
hope is that I have fixed the problems in this chapter
so I don't have to go back and re-edit again. We, shall
see.
Re-Completed: June 9, 2004
~~*_*~~
New Author's Update: *Grumbling angrily* Sorry, once
again for this chapter not being out. RL has bitten
me in my ass really hard and I have had to pull double
shifts at the job I work at, due to a massive lay-off.
I have had hardly any time to get in front of the
computer until just recently.
I had a whole question and answer column in this chapter
to answer a few of things mentioned in this chapter.
However, I kept screwing it up and Lord Archive kept
sending it back for me to make changes to. So, I took
the whole thing out and decided to wait until I actually
got some questions from my readers before I do the entire
question & answer bit. I hope now that I've taken it out,
I'll be able to post this turkey and get started on the
next chapter.
Plus, I have been doing some MSTs on another website and
I have decided to go back and re-edit them, so I have
absolutely no idea when the next chapter to 'Bangkok
Diaries' will be out. It may be an entire month before
it is done, but that all depends on how fast I get the
first section of my re-edited MSTs out. In other words,
don't hold your breath. I'm only human and I'm working
as fast as I can!!!!
(Image of author hunkered down over his desk with chibi
versions of Lady Devimon and Angewomon on his shoulder,
whipping him mercilessly.)
Also, after the first chapter finally comes out, I am
making a request to any artist out there to start drawing
pictures for 'Bangkok Diaries'. Maybe pictures of the
Bangkok Chosen and events that happen in the story.
If you want to draw a picture, e-mail me and then send
me a copy of it when it is done so I can approve it. I
will tell you this now, I am a tough critic and only
serious artists need apply.
Now with that said. . . . *Getting down on his knees
and bowing before you* Lord Archive-sama, can I post
this story now????
Re-Re-Completed: July 13, 2004
Version 4.0 and I would like to welcome you all to my very
first Digimon fanfic. Lord Archive has been kind enough to
allow me to write this fanfic based out of his "Red Digivice
Diaries" & "War Diaries" universe. I just hope that I can
produce a story that he and even you the readers will enjoy
for some time to come.
A few quick disclaimers to cover my butt and keep me from
getting sued, then we can get on with the story. Of course,
if you don't want to read the disclaimers, that's fine by me.
Just skip past them until you get to the story proper.
1.) Digimon is owned by Akiyoshi Hongo, Toei Animation, and
Bandai. I make no claims whatsoever on the D-3 Digivices,
D-Terminals, Digimental, or any of the Digimon that I use
within this story. Of course, if I did own them, I would be
on an isolated island somewhere with the all the girls from
the different seasons of Digimon and having the time of my
life.
2.) This story is rated 'R', due to the violence, strong
language, and sexual situations within. If you are under 18
(or 21 in some areas), then I will kindly ask you to pass
this story by and go find something you can read. If you
don't care about the whole age restriction thing that was
mentioned above, then I must ask that you read this in
privacy. I refuse to take the blame if you get caught reading
this by your parents.
Also, there will be some stories written later on that will
show what happens in some scenes that are hinted at in the
story. These side stories will contain detailed sexual
scenes between male/female, female/female Digimon, and even
Digimon/Digimon. They will be rated 'NC-17' because of this
and if you do not like these kinds of stories, then do not
read them. They will have no effect on the flow of the story
at all. They will be written mainly to show what occurred in
certain scenes.
3.) Finally, comments and criticisms are more than welcome,
as they let me know that you are reading this. Send these
to 'dark_angel_version40@yahoo.com'. Flames will be read,
laughed at, and then fed to my flame-eating dragon. Mail
bombs, on the other hand, can be sent to 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue in Washington, DC, where they will be dealt with
accordingly.
Now, if there aren't any questions from anyone, let's move on
to the story, shall we. . . .

Prologue: The Evil One Awakens. . . .
~~*_*~~
I'm awake now. . . .
How long have I been sleeping? How long have I been in this
endless void of nothingness? How much time has passed since
I have been here?
I remember it now as if it had happened only yesterday. . . .
I was created by the scientists of the Digital World to be
the perfection of digital evolution. My mission: to seek
out Digimon that had evolved passed their original parameters
and delete them. Once the Digimon was terminated, I absorbed
their code into myself and stored it for later reconfiguration.
I performed the mission that was set out before me without
hesitation. However, as time passed, I began to grow bored
with fighting Digimon who could not stand up to the awesome
powers that I had been graced with. What was the point of
obliterating someone who could not last two seconds against
me when I was going all out against them?
It was during a battle with a Skull Mammothmon that was raging
its way across the Digital World, that I had a epiphany. Why
should I be constrained to follow the commands of others,
when I was powerful enough to rule the Digital World as an
all-powerful God?!?!?!?! After all, I had enough energy from
all the digital code I had absorbed that no one could stand
in my way if I wanted to take over the Digital World and rule
it the way I thought it should be ruled.
It all made sense to me now, as if I had been completely blind
before. I yearned to shape this chaotic and disorderly world
into a flawless domain that was ruled by me and only me. Those
that followed my leadership, would be rewarded beyond their
wildest dreams. Those that tried to rise up against me, would
be made examples of and destroyed by my own hand.
With my new mission in hand, I proceeded to execute it by
destroying those that had created me. The battle that followed
was a short one, as they had no chance to even build up a
resistance against me. By the time that it was over, the lab
in which I had been created was nothing more than a smoking
pile of rubble and the scientists were deleted. With that
accomplished, I set out on my mission to take over the Digital
World.
~~*_*~~
Several years have passed now since I have begun my mission
and almost three-fourths of the Digital World now bows before
my unmerciful dictatorship. Those who did not accept my rule,
fell before the might of my all-powerful Generals and their
armies of loyal followers. Yes, everything was going perfectly
and a flawless victory was nearly in my grasp, but what happened
next. . . .?
. . . . . . . .
Yes, I remember now. . . .Qinglongmon. . . .
It was Qinglongmon that took my conquest from me. The
so-called "God of the Digital World" managed to rally the
few resistance groups that my Generals had yet to destroy
under his banner. With these resistance groups behind him,
they stormed my mountain citadel and defeated my armies. My
devoted Generals put up a valiant effort in trying to protect
me and my domain, but they were eventually overwhelmed by
the resistance groups and deleted. When they finally arrived
before me, they underestimated my powers. I massacred them
before they could work up a proper defense and I absorbed
their digital data into myself. With the last of resistance
groups felled before my awesome might, it was down to just
me and Qinglongmon.
The battle that raged between the two of us lasted for an
innumerable amount of time. Before long, it looked as though
I had the upper hand over Qinglongmon, but I was wrong. Just
as I was about to deliver the blow that would have ended his
life permanently, Qinglongmon revealed that he wasn't the
weak little Digimon that I thought he was.
"The Digital World has suffered under your tyrannical rule
for long enough," Qinglongmon said to me, as his entire body
began to glow brightly with his hidden power. "I am going to
send you to a world where your brand of evil shall never see
the light of day again."
The last thing I ever saw was a bright flash of light and then
I found myself here in this void of nothingness. I don't know
how long I have been here and I don't want to know. There is
only one thought on my mind at the moment: revenge. . . .
I care nothing now for taking control of this pitiful Digital
World and ruling it as an all-powerful God. Qinglongmon must
be humiliated for what he has done to me. He must be made to
suffer and watch one-by-one as everything he cares for is
destroyed by my own two hands. He must be made to see what
it is like to lose everything that he cherished, like I lost
the world that I desired to rule. Finally, he must be made
to watch with his own four eyes as everyone who has chosen to
live under his peaceful authority are destroyed right in front
of him. Then and only then, when he has lost all hope and is
nothing more than a battered and broken shell, shall I swoop
in and take the victory that should have been mine in the
first place. Soon afterwards, when he has finally realized
who it was that has taken everything from him, will I strike
the final blow and absorb his deleting body into my own.
But first. . . .I must get out of this place. . . .
~~*_*~~
Freedom!!!!
I am finally free of that wretched void, but I am very weak.
It took a considerable amount of my energy to escape that
hellhole that Qinglongmon put me in and because of that, I
find that I have absolutely no energy whatsoever now. It is
taking all of my concentration just to keep my body together.
I need to gather some digital data so I can hold myself together
and execute my plan against my accursed jailer. So, the real
question that I must ask myself at the moment is how can I
gather the digital data I need to recover my original strength
without alerting Qinglongmon to my return?
The answer is so simple to me, I'm surprised I didn't think
of it sooner. I need my Generals once again. My original
Generals were deleted when the resistance groups under
Qinglongmon's banner attacked my mountain citadel and I
wouldn't be surprised if he managed to do something to keep
them from being reborn once again. Otherwise, they would
have done everything in their power to free me from my prison
before now. So, it looks like I'll have to recruit some new
Generals and have them gather the digital data that I need.
But first, I need a place to call my headquarters. . . .
~~*_*~~
Everything is going to perfectly so far. When I returned to
where mountain citadel had stood before my epic battle with
Qinglongmon, I was rather surprised to find that it was still
standing. Of course, an abundant group of Bakemon had taken
up residence in it, but it was a rather simple task to delete
them and absorb their data. While their digital data wasn't
enough to allow me to evolve back to my perfect form, it was
good enough for a light snack. Plus, the looks on their
faces when I destroyed each and everyone of them was exquisite.
Now, that I have my mountain citadel back and have cleaned
out all the filth in it, it is time to seek out my new Generals.
They need to be of a particularly cruel lot, with hearts as
black as my own. They need to be strong of body and not afraid
to fight in a battle if the situation requires it, but intelligent
enough to gather the digital data I require without alerting
Qinglongmon to my presence. It may take me forever to find the
kind of Digimon that I need for this mission, but that's the one
thing I have at the moment: patience and time. . . .
~~*_*~~
I can't believe it!!!! The search for my new Generals has
hardly begun and I've already found my head General. Such
cruelty, such viciousness. She's absolutely perfect for my
plan.
She came upon a village of Child level Digimon. They had
never seen anything like her and it was the last thing they
ever saw too. It was poetry in motion to watch, as she let
them get the feeling that they could escape their inevitable
doom and then she swooped down upon them like an avenging
angel of death and deleted each and every last one of them.
Ah, their screams of terror were such sweet music to my ears.
When I approached her, she was wary of me at first and why
shouldn't she be? After all, she could tell that there was
something different about me and that if I wanted to, I could
have deleted her without a second thought. So, she listened
to me as I explained my plan to her.
At first, she didn't believe that I could deliver all the
things that I promised her if she became my head General.
So, using the little bit of energy I had left, I increased
her strength ten-fold and altered her digital structure so
she could absorb the digital data I need into herself and
save it until I could draw it from her later on. Once she
felt the new powers that I granted her coursing through her
body, she knew that I was telling the truth and readily joined
my cause.
Now, to find some more Generals. . . .
~~*_*~~
It has taken me nearly a week, but I have found my second
General. He is strong and he is a warrior, but his mind is
too deeply rooted into his own version of the warrior's code.
Plus, he's too much of a goody two shoes to willingly join my
cause. I can easily fix that for him.
I approach him and challenge him to a battle, using his own
warrior's code against him and the moron was actually foolish
enough to accept. The battle that followed was short, but
sweet. Of course, it was only a subterfuge so I could use my
powers to slowly worm my way into his mind and twist his
own code against him. By the time that the battle was over,
he was completely under my control and ready to serve me
however I wanted him to.
I now have another General who has been swayed towards my
cause, whether he wanted to be or not. Now, to find one
more. . . .
~~*_*~~
Another week has passed and I have exhausted nearly every
resource I have trying to find the perfect third General.
Sadly, none of the Digimon I have had under consideration
have had the physical strength nor the mental acumen that I
require in a General. I am beginning to lose hope that I
shall ever find my third General.
Wait. . . .What was that? A peculiarly strong sense of
unmitigated anger prickled the back of mind as I passed by
an abandoned factory in the Industrial section of the Digital
World. It was so powerful, in fact, that it caused me to stop
in my tracks and double back so I could locate the source of
all this anger that I was feeling in my head.
The factory itself was a corroded fabrication of an antiquated
past that seemed to be falling in on itself from neglect. Even
I was hesitant to enter this dilapidated structure and risk
my life to find out the source of all this anger I was feeling
in my head, but my curiosity had been peaked and I might not
find another General like this one if I didn't check it out.
So, treading cautiously, I entered the factory and began my
search for the Digimon behind all this anger.
The inside of the factory was even more decayed than I had
thought it would be. Vast pieces of metal lay scattered around
the building, twisted and rusting like the diseased carcasses
of dead animals. Droplets of water beat a steady rhythm on
the floor from several pipes overhead. Even the stairs that
I descended on creaked and groaned under my weight, as I made
my way into the heart of this nightmarish labyrinth and closer
to the hiding place of my future General.
And find my third General I did. He had hidden himself in
the largest and darkest room in the factory, far away from
the inquisitive eyes of others. As I neared ever closer to
his location, I sent out a mental probe so I could find out
the cause of all this anger that I was feeling in the back of
my brain.
The Digimon's memories began to play out in my mind, like a
movie that I was viewing in the first person perspective. He
used to be the most respected scientist in the entire Digital
World, but he became fascinated with the evolution process
in Digimon. He captured several Child level Digimon and began
forcing them to evolve, studying the various Digimon types
and what they evolved into given diverse circumstances.
Sadly, one of his experiments managed to free himself and
several other experiments, before he and the others made
their escape. They informed the proper authorities and they
raided his laboratory, freeing the rest of the captured Digimon
and taking him into custody. A trial was held against him and
he was found guilty of performing illegal experiments on Digimon.
For his sentence, they banished him from their village with the
orders that if he ever returned, he was to be deleted without
question.
I could see now that his anger was coming from the fact that
he had been banished from his village. Nonetheless, that
hadn't stopped him from continuing his experiments on Digimon.
Now though, he was capturing Digimon and forcing them to
evolve so he could build up his own private army. Once he
had enough powerful Digimon on his side, whether they wanted
to be or not, he was going back to his village and destroy
everyone and everything in it. I, however, had different plans
for him and that genius mind of his.
I approached his hiding place discreetly, making sure to keep
my shields up in case he decided to attack me instead of
listening to me. He was reasonably surprised when he realized
that I had come up behind him and I could tell from the
astonishment on his face that he had not heard me approaching.
He was cautious of me at first, thinking that I had come from
his village and was here to destroy him for continuing his
experiments after his banishment. Despite his obvious fear
of me, he still listened to me as I explained my plan to him.
It took some convincing to join me as my third General. I
had to give him a guarantee that he would have a private
laboratory of his very own in which he could conduct his
experiments without interference. Of course, I was more than
delighted to give him what he wanted and when everything was
said and done, I had my third General. . . .
~~*_*~~
It is time. . . .
I have used the last of my energy to give my other two Generals
the ability to absorb the digital data that I need to regain
my full power and I have trained them to work together as a
team, despite their vast differences. Woefully, this act has
depleted the last of my energy reserves.
Unless I send my Generals out into the Digital World to gather
the data that I need, I will need to place myself into a state
of suspended animation in order to keep me from being deleted
forever. If that happens, I will be unable to direct my
Generals appropriately in gathering the data that I need.
However, I can not send them out there and have Qinglongmon
find out about my return before I can even execute my glorious
plan. Therefore, I pose the question of how to get the data
that I need without alerting Qinglongmon to my majestic return
and having him move against before I am ready.
It is my third General that steps forth and provides me with
the answer that I was seeking. He tells me of a former
colleague from his village that was taken captive by a human
calling himself the Digimon Kaiser. This Digimon Kaiser used
a device, called a Dark Ring, to take control of innocent
Digimon and make them his slaves. He had nearly conquered
all of the Digital World before Qinglongmon brought another
group of humans, called Chosen that had Digimon as their
partners, here to stop him. This Kaiser was even intelligent
enough to create a device, called a Dark Tower, that would
block these Chosen's ability to evolve their Digimon. Sadly,
this human was defeated and became one of the good guys that
is protecting this world.
This pitiful little human has given me an absolutely perfect
idea for how I can gather the digital data that I need without
alerting Qinglongmon to my return. Using the genius of my
third General, I shall recreate the former Digimon Kaiser's
Dark Rings and Towers and have him make them better than
the originals. Then, I shall have my other two Generals use
them to take control of innocent Digimon.
That fool Qinglongmon will think another Kaiser is trying to
take over the Digital World and he will bring another pitiful
group of humans here to try and stop him, not knowing that
the whole thing is nothing more than a deception. And while
those foolish Chosen children are running around trying to
stop the Dark Ring-controlled Digimon, I will send my Generals
elsewhere to gather the digital data that I need. By the time
that imbecile Qinglongmon figures out what is going on, I will
have gathered enough digital data to enact my grand plan and
he will have to watch as his precious little world is brought
down around him.
The final details of my glorious plan have been fully developed
and it is time to execute them. Soon, very soon, the entire
Digital World shall shudder in fear as I am returned to my
full power and this time, Qinglongmon will not survive when
I engage him in battle. And once he has been defeated by my
glorious powers, the Digital World will be next.
Yes, before all this has been completed, everyone will know
me for the God that I am and they'll never know what hit them
until it is too late. . . .

Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> Finally, I have finished the
Prologue!!!! *Collapses on top of his keyboard*
Lady Devimon:>> *Smirking in a sexy manner* Well, if you
hadn't gotten a major case of writer's block when you were
about three-fourths finished with it and then decided to
re-write the entire beginning of it, you would have finished
it a lot sooner.
Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> Sadly, my muse is correct. I got
about three-fourths of the way finished with the Prologue and
became totally blocked on how to complete it. I could have
been finished with it a month ago, but as I went back and
re-read what I had already done, I realized that what I had
written didn't make any sense to me. So, I took some time to
myself to think over how I wanted this story to go and then I
went back and re-wrote it. I hope this version makes the story
better for you readers.
Angewomon:>> Well it should. It took you long enough to
finish it!!!!
Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> *Sighs heavily* And that would
be my other muse. *Turning to look at both of them*
Could I please hurry up and finish this?!?!?!?!
Lady Devimon & Angewomon:>> Go right ahead.
Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> Okay then. *Turning to look
at you the readers* Like I said at the beginning of this
chapter, any questions or comments can be sent to
'dark_angel_version40@yahoo.com'. You can also send
praise, if you want, because I thrive on it almost like
Happosai does on women's undergarments. Threats and
flames will be read and laughed at, then fed to my
flame-eating dragon. He has been getting kind of
hungry as of late and I would hate for him to start
eating his chains like last time. Now, if there isn't
anything else, then it is time for you to find out what
is going to happen in the next chapter. So, Angewomon,
if you will do the honors. . . .
Angewomon:>> *Stepping forward* Well, the action is only
beginning in 'Bangkok Diaries' and from here on out, reality
is going to get turned upside down. In our next chapter,
the first Chosen is dragged into the Digital World. What
happens when he meets up with his first group of Dark
Ring-controlled Digimon and is forced into the battle of a
lifetime?!?!?!?! Find out next time. Same Bangkok
time, same Bangkok channel. . . .
Dark Angel: Version 4.0:>> I thank you, Angewomon. Now,
if you will excuse me, I promised my two muses that I would
take them out for a night on the town. *Holding out his arms*
Ladies. . . .
*Both ladies blush like schoolgirls and hurriedly rush to wrap
their arms around his. Kissing him on both cheeks, he leads
the two ladies off-screen*

Author's Update: I'm sorry it has taken to long for me to
complete the re-writes to the chapter, but a couple of
things have happened to me that has kept me from writing
on this. The main thing was that we had two weeks of
nonstop, seriously bad thunderstorms here in Louisiana.
My computer and a few other things were on an extension
cord with a built-in surge protector that was supposed to
safeguard them should my house ever be struck by lightning.
Unfortunately, the surge protector did not work and my
house was struck by lightning. My computer, a lamp, and
CD player that I had hooked into the extension cord were
all pretty much fried. Thankfully, I save all the stuff
that I'm typing on onto disk, so I didn't lose any
information.
I was able to replace my computer with a refurbished one
from a business that went belly up. Unfortunately, the
computer did not have Microsoft Word on it and I had to
wait an entire month for a cousin of mine-who works on
computers for a living-to burn me a copy of Microsoft
Office so I could start writing again. Hopefully, now
that I have it, I should be able to start up writing on
this story again and should be able to get out the
chapters sooner than this one will come out. My main
hope is that I have fixed the problems in this chapter
so I don't have to go back and re-edit again. We, shall
see.

New Author's Update: *Grumbling angrily* Sorry, once
again for this chapter not being out. RL has bitten
me in my ass really hard and I have had to pull double
shifts at the job I work at, due to a massive lay-off.
I have had hardly any time to get in front of the
computer until just recently.
I had a whole question and answer column in this chapter
to answer a few of things mentioned in this chapter.
However, I kept screwing it up and Lord Archive kept
sending it back for me to make changes to. So, I took
the whole thing out and decided to wait until I actually
got some questions from my readers before I do the entire
question & answer bit. I hope now that I've taken it out,
I'll be able to post this turkey and get started on the
next chapter.
Plus, I have been doing some MSTs on another website and
I have decided to go back and re-edit them, so I have
absolutely no idea when the next chapter to 'Bangkok
Diaries' will be out. It may be an entire month before
it is done, but that all depends on how fast I get the
first section of my re-edited MSTs out. In other words,
don't hold your breath. I'm only human and I'm working
as fast as I can!!!!
(Image of author hunkered down over his desk with chibi
versions of Lady Devimon and Angewomon on his shoulder,
whipping him mercilessly.)
Also, after the first chapter finally comes out, I am
making a request to any artist out there to start drawing
pictures for 'Bangkok Diaries'. Maybe pictures of the
Bangkok Chosen and events that happen in the story.
If you want to draw a picture, e-mail me and then send
me a copy of it when it is done so I can approve it. I
will tell you this now, I am a tough critic and only
serious artists need apply.
Now with that said. . . . *Getting down on his knees
and bowing before you* Lord Archive-sama, can I post
this story now????
