Is the future for other worlds predetermined? Is it for the Digital World or the Real?

Does knowing what happens, mean it will now always happen?

If you meet someone from your future, does that mean you can't change it any more, since it's their past, and the past can't be changed? If changing your future to help you, might hurt other people and their past, or maybe even remove entire people from existing, do you have the right to try to change anything at all?

[Luckily, Vanguard has little idea of whether or not he's talking to a digimon or a Chosen, let alone Dorumon himself. Sorry, Dorumon- 'our Chosen' is just a minor possessive habit.]

Woa woa. So... just for clarification. You're saying B's PAST may never happen, or B may never happen? Cause that's what it sounds like you're saying.

[Too late now! Dorumon isn't taking chances.]

Both are a possibility, I think. I'm not sure. The good result would be B's past is different and B becomes a different person because of it, hopefully still someone who would be Chosen. The bad result is B stops existing.

It's a real headache. If, knowing when A changes their future it may destroy everything B knows or maybe B themselves, how can A try to change anything at all, even if it's bad things they want to change?

Woah, woah. That's a lot of ifs there, buddy.

This future A's trying to get better be worth it. I mean, you take the best and the worst, and you're basically choosing between "things get better" and "this guy or gal doesn't exist anymore".

You'd better make it a heck of a future if you're betting somebody's life.

That's the exact problem, right there. There's no way to know trying to fix what will happen, will result in something better for everyone else than what's already happened.

Does B even know their life's being juggled?

No. I don't think so, anyway. They don't seem the sort to think about it.

Or think about much at all, really. A's not the sort of fellow to just ruin lives to get a better future, but who ever expects to be limited by someone else's past?

... How bad's the future though?

Wish I could say it's never okay to put somebody else on the line like that but...

From what little I've found out? At least two people will die to keep the past/future the way it is or was. Maybe entire worlds.

Maybe even more will die if that's changed, though.

What you have on your hands... Is a lose-lose situation. Big time.

I know. It really really sucks. I don't know what to do about it. If anything SHOULD be done about it, you know?

Only thing you can do. Just find another way.

When you're stuck on an island with ocean on every side... call in an Airdramon to pick you up!
