Story
Four years before the events of Digimon Adventure, a digi-egg hatched in the home of Tai and Kari. The newborn Botamon digivolved three times into and fought Parrotmon. The fight was witnessed by the eight children who would one day become the Digi-Destined. The damage was later blamed on a terrorist bombing, which caused many of the resident families to move away. The children, whose parents did not believe that they had seen monsters, eventually forgot the event or accepted that it must have been a dream. Lines referencing a terrorist bombing were removed from re-runs of the english dub following the terrorist attack in New York on 11 September 2001.

The kids are back in the real world at camp and must stop Myotismon before he finds the eighth child. They go to Highton View Terrace, where they are attacked by Myotismon's army. The kids suddenly realize that what they thought was a bombing attack four years ago, was actually the appearance of the first Digimon. Izzy suggests that the eighth child must have been there, as well. The kids continue to search for the child before Myostismon can find him or her.
