A/N: This is a digimon story. Although the opening is rather misleading. Or, you know, not.
Prologue: The World, 2210
The elevator dinged and opened to the show the words Reservation O-11 scrawled on the door in front of it. Renu stepped out of the elevator and slipped her key card into the slot next to the door and it slid open. Inside the room a hallway with thousands of cells, lined the room. From one of them she head a baby crying and whipping out her staff she hit the transparent barrier and electricity rippled from the cell wall. The woman inside the cell looked up from the cot she was sitting, where she had been rocking her baby trying to make it silent, knowing that the inspection was today. She put the child down on the bed using a pillow to support the baby's head and walked over to the transparent wall holding her back from escaping. Renu looked at her and smiled, hissing she spoke, "Make thee child silent. Or you shall be tranzported to thee holding zell."
The woman eyes went wide, "I'll try, but she's hungry. Please! Feed her!"
Renu hit the transparent wall again, "Your rations have already been served. Deal with the child or else."
Renu watched as the woman went back to the baby with trembling arms and picked her up. She started rocking the baby back and forth singing to it. The baby instantly quieted as if it knew that it was putting its mother in danger. Renu sneered and moved on, finally she came to a cell of one of the older members of Reservation O-11 and threw the key into the his box. He looked up eyes wide, "No! No! No…." he backed up shaking, "Please no!"
Renu only strutted into his cell and snapped her fingers, from behind her two machines came into the cage as well, "Don't be scared. You are going to thee master, you should be happy. Today you shall be his power."
The machines pulled up the screaming man, and he twisted and turned in their arms. The machines however were relentless in their strength, and held him tightly, Renu only smiled. They dragged him down the hall an into a large room where another machine was. It stood in the center of the room and the man stared up into it's large cannons. He gulped, "Please, master! I didn't do anything, I meant no harm."
The voice that met his was deep and booming, "No, you did nothing. However, you daughter did."
This caused the man to start struggling harder straining against his captives. This however only earned him a slap from Renu, "Quite when thee master is speaking."
The man looked up eyes desperate, "Don't hurt her!"
The machines body rustled and his head tilted close to the man's. And then the man shrunk back, the face was gargantuan, far larger than his. He felt like an ant compared to it. And his face begin to sweat, the machine spoke again, "Why should I? She is the one who chose to join the Rebellion."
Behind the machine another voice spoke, not revealing its self, "Do not scare the man any more than he needs to be, we found their base. The people there will be dust in the wind, and our power source soon."
At that the man's face seemed to fall into despair, his body giving up to what these things were telling him, "Then take me, I have nothing to live for."
The machine turned its head again, "Good."
The unidentified voice however was not as happy, "That's no fun, I hate it when they don't fight."
There was silence and then the machine turned towards the man, "Die!"
There was burst of light from the cannons and when the light was gone there was nothing but dust particles in the wind, the dust moved to the machine and he seemed to be absorbing it. Renu smiled and then bowed, "Shall I make for thee surface?"
The machine nodded, "Yes."
The recoding stopped and Ayoya watched for the third time that day, her father's death. They hadn't been lying, they had attacked Colony 47 and every one in it had been taken by surprise. But not every one had died, and she was one of them. Her fists clenched, and tears dripped onto them. These creatures who had come to their world almost fifty years ago has seemed harmless, had been harmless. But then the not so nice ones had arrived, and after almost four years of fighting, the good ones had been driven back and the evil ones had taken over. Ayoya didn't know where the good ones had gone, but she knew that they were some where. That did not mean, however that they were coming back. She was positive they weren't. And yet, like the few members of the Rebellion, she held hope that some day, the evil creatures would go away, and that Earth would be free again.
The craft she was in halted as they came up on Colony 19 and she pulled the tape out of its player and threw it into her small duffel bag. She opened the door to the craft and stepped out. Colony 19 was one of the largest colonies out of the small amount that were scattered through out the world. She walked up to the gate and the guard looked down at her, "ID?"
She flashed her badge and he nodded and let her into the fenced colony. As she entered her friend Mina ran up to her, "You came!"
Ayoya shook her head, "Sadly, yes."
Mina's face became etched with concern, "What happened? What's going on?"
"The monster's are on their way. I'm here to give the evacuation signal."
Mina held on to Ayoya's arm tightly, gripping it hard, her body shaking. Ayoya knew what she was thinking. And Ayoya knew that she was right, they wouldn't make it. The colony was far to large, despite only having numbers up to a hundred. Few would live and since Ayoya had an obligation to the Rebellion, that would not be her, "Soon?"
"Yes."
Mina nodded, her face showing no fear, but her tone betraying her, "Then I'll stay."
Ayoya had expected this, had seen this coming. And knew that there was nothing she could to do discourage her friend. They had made a pact, when they were two, that when the evil monsters came, they would fight them, and die together. And now that time was upon them. They reached Mina's house and Ayoya entered the small run down shack, the inside, just like the outside was bare to the bone. It had no bed, no sink, no toilet. Nothing that the oldest people spoke of when they talked about the day's before the monsters. Ayoya pulled out her small mattress from the pack she was wearing on her back and spread it on the floor, "I should go to command. They will want to know what's happening."
Mina nodded and watched as Ayoya ducked out of the cabin and walked to the slightly larger one down a ways and knocked on the door. A face peaked out and Ayoya was let inside, then Mina was left in her house with nothing to do. That lasted about twenty seconds when she figured with nothing better to do she could at least cook a decent meal if it was to be indeed her last day on Earth. And that was what she was doing when Ayoya returned twenty minutes latter, "Welcome back."
Ayoya smiled, "Something smells good."
A small smile passed over Mina's face and then she looked at Ayoya, "Stop stalling, what happened?"
"They're getting crafts"
The crack in Ayoya's voice told her all that she needed to know, "They won't make it in time will they?"
"Of course not. They never do."
The ground beneath them sifted as Mina lay back, her head hitting the back of the cabin for support, "I'm fed up with this. We need help, and we need help now! I don't care who, just help. I would pray for it, but what good would that do? No one is listening to us, no one cares about us. The world is dying and who ever is in charge up there doesn't seem to give a rats ass."
Ayoya didn't say anything, and she didn't have too. She knew that Mina was right, knew that they needed help, knew that none would come in time. When the evil monsters had come, those of them who where smart, those of them who actually had brains wasted no time in using them to crush, and utterly destroy the human race. The war had been swift, for although they had guns, their power seemed to do nothing against the seemly magical and powerful forces that these monsters bolstered. Ayoya shook her head, "We can't give up hope. We can't."
Calm filled the room as Mina lay down to rest before the big battle, "No, we can't can we?"
The room was quite and Ayoya looked up before following her friends advice, "If there is any hope, send it soon."
Only the sound of Mina's snores answered her.
