Digimon Wars
Prologue: The savior
The north of the village was in flame. A battle was shouting at the back of the village. An explosion occurs and covers a sound for a few second. When the sound goes down, someone can be heard on his kneel crying and shouting in despair. He was outside the village near an altar.
"Why? Why is this happening to us? *Sob*" Cries a young voice.
The battle sound was over and foot sound can be heard.
"Are you alright my friend?" Asks an older voice.
"No...Why doesn't the king send us help?" Asks the young one.
"He's busy fighting in the front line and cannot allow losing troops. If he does that...We may lose the war." Says the older.
"Are we...just sacrifice?" Asks the young one.
"No...We have no choice but to evacuate the village soon." Says the older one.
"I...I won't lose my home!" Then the young one stands up and runs to a sacred altar.
"I know...But we have to live." Says the older one with sadness.
The younger one stands on his knees and begins to pry, tears falling on the ground: "Please! I need you help god...I beg of you...Send us some help to protect our home. I don't want to lose my home."
"Shoutmon..." Says the older one. He stays silent for a few second. "We have no time; they'll attack again soon so we must be ready."
Human world: School gym
"-ONLY ONE MINUTES BEFORE THE END OF THE MATCH! IT'S 76 FOR THE VISITORS AND 75 FOR OUR SCHOOL!-" Says the commentator.
In the gym, it was the last minute of the basketball match between schools and Anders was on the losing team. Anders is a man with brown eyes and brown hair. He also has dark skin, heritage from his African origin. He's almost 15 years old and he's a genius in his school.
"Ok...We are not winning the match but I have a plan." Says Anders.
The rest of the team listen to him.
"They know me and Sam are the best player so we must make them believe one of us will try on the offensive. When we have the ball, Sam will try hard to be free and one of you must be discreet during the action and I'll pass the ball. Got it?"
"Yes!" The others answer.
They take their place. It was their turn to attack. Sam passes the ball to the player 66 whose move to the other side of the gym. He then passes the ball to Anders. Anders takes his position and tries to pass the other player. Sam tries to have a good spot and 2 players of the other team watch him. Another player of Anders team was free and Anders passes the ball and he scores.
They win the match.
"OUR SCHOOL WIN THE MATCH!" Shout the commentator.
"Anders you rock!" Says Sam, but he was mostly cover the spectator.
They all smile and talk when they walk in the changing room and after they change themselves, they return home except Anders who has some problem taking his basketball T-shirt for his usual red one.
"Stupid T-shirt...anytime I put it I can't get it out...And...Done!" Says Anders when he finally did it. He then puts his special goggles over his front.
"Anders...Did you hear me?" Asks a mysterious voice.
"Who's there?" Asks Anders.
"Listen to me...Take the object I left in your locker and answers my subject prayer." Says the voice.
"I'm getting crazy!" Sigh Anders.
"They need you now!" Says the voice more aggressively.
"...Alright." Then Anders walks to his locker.
Anders opens his locker and look inside. He finds a strange object in his locker and takes it out.
"Now...Press the red button!" Says the voice.
"...Doesn't the red button always cause trouble?" Replies Anders to the voice.
"Stop arguing and press it!" Order the voice, visibly annoyed by Anders.
"Please! I need you help god...I beg of you...Send us some help to protect our home. I don't want to lose this home." Says a mysterious child voice.
"What is that?" Asks Anders.
"The voice of someone who's calling you. He wants a savior and you are his hope. It's been 3 days he's praying for help. You have to help him." Says the first voice.
"...I...Alright. Whatever comes...It's your fault." Says Anders.
He then presses the red button and a mysterious blue and red light blind Anders. The light attracts Anders inside of it and Anders tries to back away. But the light was too strong and he falls in it.
Outside, everyone was waiting for Anders, but he never came out of the school.
Digimon world: Fertile village
"Shoutmon...It's been 3 days you're praying...So...I think you've pray enough...We must prepare ourselves before they attack us again." Says the older voice.
"...I...I'm sure we'll have help soon...I'm sure...I...I've...I've pray enough for this...Right?" Asks Shoutmon uncertain.
"I'm sure of it...Come...We have to return home." Says the older voice with comfort.
"Thanks...You're right...Let's go." Says a very depress Shoutmon.
They begin to walk away from the altar when a light shrine behind them. Shoutmon and his companion turn around and were blind by the light until it fades away.
"What is that?" Asks the companion of Shoutmon.
"He...He answers my prayer!" Says Shoutmon.
Shoutmon then returns to the altar running fast while his companion runs after Shoutmon. When he reaches the altar, Shoutmon stops running and watch the light fade away and see a strange being like he never see before.
"What...is that?" Asks Shoutmon.
"I don't know but-" He stop talking when he sees the thing moving.
Anders sits on his back and begins to open his eyes and see: Something that appears as a small, red dragon with blue eyes and a spiky mouth and a V-shaped forehead. He wears green headphones around his ears, and his joints appear to be held together by some screws. That red dragon wasn't alone. A big purple dragon that wears a special red and black rubber Battle Armor as its clothing was standing by his side. Its wings are large and see to enabling high speed flight. His Tail has the form of an Anchor.
Anders then slowly back away, but the 2 dragons were walking when he backs away, maintaining the same distance between them. The altar then begins to shrine and a voice can be heard:
"Shoutmon...You're prayer has been answer...It's all up to you now." Then the altar stops shining.
"It's...Our savior." Says Shoutmon with a happy ton and a big smile.
"I can't believe god answer you." Says Shoutmon companion.
"...What's going on here?" Asks Anders.
Shoutmon suddenly runs closer to Anders.
"You're our savior...What are you? Where do you come from? Are you a god?..." Shoutmon keeps asking question after question.
"I don't think he understands you and you don't let him answer your questions." Says the purple dragon.
"Sorry..." Says Shoutmon.
Answers do a small smile before answering.
"My name is Anders...I'm a human and there's no way I'm a god...The rest...I don't remember it."
"I'm Shoutmon. One of the youngest dragon of the Fertile village." Says the red dragon with an exited smile.
"I'm Arresterdramon, a warrior of the village and a friend of Shoutmon." Says the purple one.
"The savior is here! Our village is safe!" Shout Shoutmon joyfully.
"Savior? What do you mean by that? The voice also says that." Asks Anders completely lost.
"You're here to save our home from the enemy!" Says Shoutmon.
"...I don't understand anything at all! I'm completely clueless about what's going on." Says Anders.
"Come in our village. We shall explain to you what's going on." Says Arresterdramon.
"Let's go!" Says Shoutmon.
"Hey...Wait...Put me down!" Shout Anders while Shoutmon grabs Anders over his head and begins to run fast to the village.
"Wait up Shoutmon!" Also shout Arresterdramon running after them.
Shoutmon has small legs but he sure can run fast when he wants too. After one minutes they reach the village while Arresterdramon was behind them. Anders was trembling a little by that little voyage. The villagers were, most of them, have dragon/dinosaur form. When the villagers see Shoutmon with the human over him village went silent and they all walk closer to see what he gets. Anders was beginning to be nervous about all this and was trying to find an escape plan, but Shoutmon grasp was strong. Then, the villages move aside when a tall one like Arresterdramon was walking at their direction.
"Shoutmon...What is the meaning of this?" Asks the digimon with an old voice. He resemble of a biped dinosaur. He has orange skin, but it is covered by metal armor. He has red plates at his lower leg. His feet have 3 toes. His chest is also covered with silver plate that get down and the part between his legs. The silver plate has pipe that connect his chest armor and hid shoulders plate. His shoulders have golden plate and his upper hands that finish with 3 claws or is it gauntlets? His head has a silver helm covered it. It has 3 horns on it, one at his nose place, 2 between his head. He also has red hairs at the back of his neck. At his back, he has a golden shield.
"Old Wargreymon, you won't believe what I just call here!" Says Shoutmon excited.
"...Did you just call me old?" Says Wargreymon upset.
"Shoutmon, have respect for our village chief." Says Arresterdramon after a long sigh.
"But he's old." Replies Shoutmon before Wargreymon hit Shoutmon head and Shoutmon drop the human on the ground.
"Didn't see that punch coming." Comment Anders.
"Who are you and why Shoutmon is so happy to have found you?" Ask Wargreymon.
"My name is Anders and...I think it's about the savior thing he calls me again and again." Says Anders. He then stands up and looks at the elder.
"Shoutmon...Care to explain what's going on?" Asks Wargreymon.
Shoutmon shakes his head and clear his mind before talking. He explains that he pray for their god to send help to protect the village and a voice has answered his prayer and Anders appears to help them. He also says he brought him here to test his power to fight. Then Anders cuts him:
"I don't have any power."
"Hein!" Says Shoutmon.
...
"WHAT!" Shout Shoutmon. "THEN WHY DID HE SENTS YOU?"
"How should I know? I just came..." Then something clicks in Anders mind. He then checks in his pocket and find a device. "The voice asks me to have this."
"A General Loader!" Says Wargreymon.
"General Loader?" Ask Shoutmon, Arresterdramon and Anders.
"It's a loader that has the power to give special weaponry to the warrior who works under the command of the general of troops to army. The God has chosen you has a general of our village. You were send here for your brain and not you're battle abilities." Explains Wargreymon.
"But...I don't know how it works." Says Anders. Curiosity gets the best of him this time.
"When troops want to be under your command, they give a small amount of data to be record in the GL, Short term for General Loader. Then, you can use the mic in this device to give order. It can also give weaponry, analyses the battleground and the enemy to exploit their weakness, etc."
"I see...But I have to return home soon...My parents and friends must be worry about me and-" But Shoutmon cuts him.
"You...YOU CAN'T RETURN HOME...WE NEED YOU!"
"But-"
"WARGREYMON! ENEMIES ARE COMING!" Shout a voice.
"Agumon...Alright...We have to prepare for the encounter." Says Wargreymon.
"Help us." Whines Shoutmon.
"...Alright...I can't let you down now." Says Anders. He's not the type to let anyone down when the immediate danger is present.
All the digimon who can fight run to the north of the village and prepare for the encounter. They were observing discreetly the enemy coming. Anders follows them and watches the enemy walking at their direction. The enemies were all have the form of different beast and it was hard to distinct them. Anders tries his GL and sees that they were some Grizzlymon and Dorulumon walking at their direction and an Antylamon has their leader. The enemy hasn't seen them now.
"They still sending us some weak beast...They are thinking we are weaklings." Says Arresterdramon furious.
"They are counting in their numbers." Says Anders. "But has you can see, their formation has numerous weakness."
"Hein! Where?" Asks Shoutmon.
"Their flanks are weak for sneak attack. If we let them enter in the village, we can attack them by surprise and take the upper hand." Says Anders.
"Alright...But I'm the only one who can fight Antylamon. We are both perfect level." Says Arresterdramon.
"How can I help?" Asks Shoutmon.
"You stay out of our way." Says Wargreymon. "You are not strong enough to fight them."
"But..." Then Shoutmon looks down.
"Stay at my side." Says Anders. "If anyone tries to attack me, you have the mission to protect me."
"You can count on me!" Says Shoutmon.
"Half of you must go to the right and the other half to the left." Says Anders.
"Wait. Charge the GL with my data." Says Wargreymon. "I shall give the signal on the left side.
"An me for the Right side." Says Arresterdramon.
"How do we do that?" Asks Anders.
Wargreymon puts his fingers on the screen of the GL and Arresterdramon do the same.
"Shoutmon?" Asks Anders putting the GL close to him.
"For real?" Asks Shoutmon.
"You're the one who brought me here." Says Anders.
"Thanks." Says Shoutmon. He them puts his fingers and the GL takes some data and store it.
"Shoutmon. Wait for me at the center building there." Says Anders pointing the biggest building of the north part of the village. It gives great view of the surrounding and they are out of the way of the warrior. Shoutmon runs to the building.
"Why did you ask Shoutmon to be your guardian?" Asks Wargreymon.
"I give him a task. He won't try to be on your way if he's busy with this." Says Anders.
"Good. Let's take position." Orders Wargreymon.
They all take their position and wait for the enemy to come. The villagers hide to in the broken houses of the left and the right.
The enemy enters in the village and the looks around. They were searching for the villager to kill but they find no one.
Inside the center building.
"When shall the villager attack?" Whispered Shoutmon.
"We have to wait for them to drop their guard or they're about to broke formation." Whispered back Anders.
The enemy begins to laugh. Anders guesses the enemy believes the villagers desert the village.
Anders takes out the mic.
"Now!" Orders Anders.
The villagers all attack at the same time the enemy. They didn't expect this and the enemy lost their average of number during the first attack. The survivors were hesitant moving on and some already shows sigh to run away.
Arresterdramon, knowing they have the upper hands decide to attack Antylamon but the enemy already retreats from the fight.
"...Already?" Asks Arresterdramon.
"The first assault was decisive." Says Wargreymon.
"What do you mean?" Asks Arresterdramon.
"The victory was obvious and Antylamon calls the retreat since he knows they don't have chance of victory. He doesn't have big troop here since the beast army is concentrate on the major army. I'm sure they are trying to divide the royal troops." Says Wargreymon.
"You've did it!" Says Shoutmon. Anders was behind, a little late since he runs slower than Shoutmon.
"It's all thanks to you Anders, It was a short battle but it was thanks to your strategy that the village didn't suffer from destruction this time." Says Wargreymon. "But I fear they might bring their best troops next time."
"And we will be ready! With Anders we will defend our village from the enemy." Says Shoutmon happily.
"..." Anders didn't answer anything.
"...Anders." Says Shoutmon.
Anders looks at Shoutmon who's doing puppy eyes on him.
"Don't try that on me...I'm immune against puppy eyes." Says Anders. "But...You need me more than my parents so...I'll accept to protect your village."
"T-THANK YOU!" Shout Shoutmon jumping at Anders and hugging him.
"You're welcome." Says Anders.
"In the name of our village, I thank you for your support. I think you need to rest before planning our next course of actions for now." Says Wargreymon.
"You're right." Says Anders.
"Come in my house!" Says Shoutmon.
"We are shearing this house Shoutmon." Says Arresterdramon. "But you can sleep there."
"Come with me!" Says Shoutmon.
Anders follows Shoutmon while the others watch them.
"The night is coming." Says Wargreymon.
"You should rest. You are exhausted." Says Arresterdramon.
"Alright...Shoutmon is more of his usual self since the human appears." Says Wargreymon.
"Yeah...I'm happy for him." Says the purple dragon. "If only he was here."
"He's cold with me right now."
"Maybe Anders can arrange it." Says the purple one with a smile.
"You're right." Says Wargreymon.
