Episode 1: Dragon of the Inferno! Blaze on, Ketumon!
Kazuki Ryuunosuke was in the train station, with a ticket in his hand. He was a seventeen year old boy with storm blue eyes and long, wild, black hair that was mostly tied in a loose braid and two locks of hair stuck out from the top of his head, looking like a pair of fox ears. He was dressed in a pitch black button-front military cardigan pea coat over a blue shirt, dark blue jeans, and black combat boots. He also had bandages wrapped around his arms from the forearms down to his knuckles. Around his neck was a blue compass. He was carrying a dark blue duffel bag and was standing at the platform.
He looked to his metallic blue BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8230. He looked back to the text he received earlier which read, "Get to the train from Jiyuugaoka. At 5:45, it will leave for Shibuya."
He sighed to himself, "This better not be some prank if I'm taking this train instead of going to see her." (Kazuki is voiced by Johnny Yong Bosh) He heard the train coming and sighed as it entered the station. He filed in with the rest of the passengers when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Hold the door please!"
Kazuki reacted to the call and held his arm in front of the door, keeping it from closing, and allowing the source of the voice to enter. His eyes widened with surprise when he discovered the source of the female voice.
It was a girl, about sixteen years old, with long black hair and beautiful brown eyes that had a warm light within them. She wore a pair of white jean shorts with green trim and a matching jacket, also trimmed with green, over a green shirt, and white and green sneakers. Slung around her right shoulder was a long object, wrapped in a white cloth.
With the teen was a little girl with black hair reaching to her shoulders and she had brown eyes. She wore a beige long-sleeve button shirt with a ribbon at the neck, a red-orange skirt, and white sneakers. She had two small locks of hair sticking out the corners of her head like cute antennae.
Kazuki smiled, "Kotonoha!"
Kotonoha gasped and smiled as she hugged Kazuki, "Kazuki, it so good to see you!" (Kotonoha is voiced by Danielle Judovits)
The doors closed and the train left the station.
He returned the hug enthusiastically, "Same here! I had no idea I'd see you again like this!"
She released him and gestured to the little girl, "You remember Kokoro, don't you?"
Kazuki smiled as he knelt down and ruffled the girl's hair, "How could I forget? It's good to see you, Kokoro."
Kokoro blinked with confusion until her eyes widened and she gave Kazuki a wide, happy smile.
"Kazu!" The little girl beamed as she hugged Kazuki tightly. (Kokoro is voiced by Luci Christian)
"So what are you two doing here?" Kazuki asked.
Kotonoha frowned slightly, "It's strange. I was out shopping with Kokoro when I received a text message on my cellphone. It said, 'Do you wish to start? Yes or No?' And there was no address as to who sent it?"
"Sis answered 'Yes' and she got another weird message!" Kokoro added.
Kazuki frowned as he showed them the message on his phone, "That message wouldn't happen to go something like this, would it?"
Kotonoha read the message and gasped, "That's the message! It said to take this train to Shibuya."
Kazuki growled, "I don't like this..."
"Who do you think could have sent us this message?"
"I don't know, but we might get our answers at Shibuya."
Kazuki glanced off to his side and saw a young man with short, and spiky silver hair, a right blue eye, and a left red eye with a scar over his left eye. He wore a gray denim vest over a white, long-sleeve shirt, black studded gloves gray pants, and matching sneakers. He also had pale, almost silvery, skin. He met Kazuki's gaze with his own or a second and looked away.
Suddenly Kazuki's phone went off, as did those of other teens, and he checked it. Kotonoha checked her phone as well. The heterochromatic teen also answered his phone.
It was another message that read, "The underground train at Shibuya leaves at 7:00"
"This doesn't make any sense," Kotonoha sighed.
Kazuki nodded, "I'll say." He glanced over to the guy, 'Could he be...?'
At the Shibuya station, Kazuki and the siblings stepped off and looked around
"I didn't know there were any trains underneath Shibuya," Kokoro admitted.
Kazuki frowned, "That's because there shouldn't be any."
"What do you mean, Kazuki?" Kotonoha asked.
"I get the feeling someone's playing with us." He then saw the silver-haired boy walking off. He felt a strange aura on him, "Hey, maybe that guy knows something."
"How can you tell?" Kotonoha blinked.
Kazuki shrugged, "Call it a hunch."
He and the girls followed the man through several tunnels and stairs. They caught up to him and spotted him going into an elevator. they ran for the elevator and made it before the doors closed.
"That was close..." Kokoro panted slightly.
Kotonoha spoke to the boy, "Excuse me, but did you receive a message to come here as well?"
"...Yeah..." the teen answered.
Then felt the elevator descending, even though they were on the first floor.
Kokoro looked out the elevator's window and gasped, "We're going down!"
Kotonoha blinked, "Down? But we're on the first floor!"
Kazuki also looked out the window and paled, "Then this is one huge basement!"
They descended down the elevator and it finally stopped. The occupants stepped out and gasped, except the silver-haired boy, as they saw another train yard. There were other teens there as well.
"OK... maybe I was wrong on the train thing," Kazuki said surprised as hell, though he notice all the trains didn't show the front of the trains. Kazuki then heard his phone go off and he inspected it.
"It's up to you now," a feminine voice spoke through his phone. "What shall you choose?"
The teen walked out of the elevator and made his way to a train that had a black leading train, a white car, leading a gold car, and a crimson car as the caboose.
"Geez, my phone is more chatty than that guy," Kazuki huffed.
"So what should we do?" Kokoro inquired.
"These trains must go somewhere, "Kotonoha tried to reason.
Kazuki nodded, "The only question is where... So, who feels like taking another train ride?"
"I do! I do!" Kokoro chanted as she ran into a white bullet train that was trimmed with white.
"Kokoro, don't run off by yourself!" Kotonoha scolded as she gave chase.
Kazuki chuckled as he casually followed the two sisters and boarded the train. The inside of the train was white and had booths for seats. Also, Kazuki and the Katsura sisters were not alone.
In one booth, there was a young man with spiky brown hair, green eyes, and wore a black blazer over a gray shirt, cargo pants and sneakers.
The man sitting across from him was a large guy who wore a scarf and a wool hat to cover his head, with black hair sticking out from underneath, leaving only his gray eyes visible. He also wore a heavy coat over a blue shirt with black pants and boots. A surgical scar ran over each eye.
In another booth were a couple of girls that Kazuki assumed were twins.
The first girl had soft, aqua blue, eyes and black hair tied in a braid with a yellow bow ribbon at the end. She wore a jean jacket over a pink tank top with a "Hello Kitty" print on the front, matching bell bottoms, and white sneakers.
The other twin had eyes that were blood red and looked deadly. Her hair wasn't in a braid and she wore a black bow ribbon on the top of her head. She wore a black tank top with a red "Hello Kitty" print on the front with matching jeans and sneakers.
The brown-haired teen looked up and smiled, "Hey, looks like we got company!"
Kokoro waved at the other passengers, "Hi."
Kotonoha then asked the four teens, "Are you all here because of the message?"
They all nodded and the blue-eyed twin spoke, "Hey, with you three here that makes seven of us."
"Any reason you guys picked this particular train?" Kazuki inquired.
They taller teen spoke, "This was the closest train to the elevator."
The other teens nodded and the red-eyed teen smirked at Kazuki, "What about you?"
Kazuki chuckled, "We had to follow little Kokoro here." He ruffled the girl's hair. "So, since we're all here, why don't we introduce ourselves?"
The gray-eyed teen blinked, "Introductions?"
"You mean like in high school?" The blue-eyed twin inquired.
Kazuki nodded, "Right. Like starting with your name, things you like, hate, and dreams for the future. Stuff like that. So I'll start. I'm Kazuki Ryuunosuke. I like martial arts, food, traveling, photography, and technology. I hate bullies, traitors and rapists. As for my dreams for the future...I don't feel like telling you that."
Everyone sweat-dropped.
"Me next!" Kokoro beamed. "I'm Kokoro Katsura and I like candy, food, and Kazu!" Kazuki blushed and the twins giggled.
Kotonoha was next. "My name is Kotonoha Katsura and I like reading, meditating, and watching horror movies. I dislike perverts. And I want to go to Tokyo University when I graduate from high school."
"And Sis wants to marry Kazu," Kokoro teased.
"Kokoro!" Kotonoha blushed fiercely.
Kazuki coughed as his blush never left his face, "So, what about you guys?"
The green-eyed boy started, "I'm Yokoshima Magi, but the ladies call me Yoko. I like video games, eating anything I can get my hands on, football, and explosions. I hate bad comedy." He gestured the taller boy sitting across from him, "And this is my buddy, Chiaki." (Yokoshima is voiced by Justin Cook)
The blue-eyed twin was next, "I'm Nanako Narukawa and I like surfing, eating, and boys. I hate perverts and when people always say you can't do anything. As for my dreams, I wanna travel the world and try every kind of food out there." (Nanako is voiced by Michelle Ruff)
"I'm Chiaki Yukinojou," Chiaki spoke. "I like carving, drawing, and I hate pedophiles. I always go camping and I plan on becoming an artist." (Chiaki is voiced by Lex Lang)
"I'm Kat Narukawa, and I like martial arts, food, and kids. Back home, I work part-time at day care center. I hate it when someone underestimates me. As for my dreams..." She gave the boys in the car a sexy glare and stood up as she pumped her fist, "I plan on making the men of this world my sex slaves! HA HA HA HA!" (Kat is voiced by Jessica Strauss)
Everyone in the room sweat-dropped.
Nanako face-palmed, "Great... Sis is delusional. You'll have to excuse her, she can be a bit rash."
"Hm, interesting group we got here..." Kazuki sweat-dropped.
The train's horn was blown and the car began to rumble. The teens lost their balance and fell over. Kazuki caught Kotonoha and Kokoro as he feel back to the door and an armored figure appeared over his body.
He felt a tingling sensation and blinked, "What was that..?"
He looked to Kotonoha and an armored figure was also over her body, as well as the other teens. He looked down to his phone and it was covered in light and exploded in shards as a new device was in his hand. It was storm blue in color, had a hexagonal screen, two buttons, and a silver grip.
Chiaki and the others stared at their phones as they became deices similar to Kazuki's. His had a forest camouflage scheme with a black grip.
Yokoshima's was chrome with a black grip.
Nanako's was aqua blue with a sea green grip.
Kat's device was crimson in color with beige grip.
Finally, Kotonoha's device was white in color with a green grip.
"What the hell is going on...?" Kazuki asked nobody.
The device spoke in a familiar voice, "Welcome to the Digital World, Kazuki. This is your D-Scanner."
"Digital...World...?" He then held his head in pain as he saw images of forests burning, and three armored figures standing together. He then opened his eyes when he spotted light from the window. "Everybody OK?"
Yokoshima groaned, "More or less...?"
"I'm guessing you guys got that message too?"
Nanako nodded, "Yeah, but what a ride..."
Chiaki looked out the window, "Looks like we just got out of a tunnel."
"Hey look!" Kokoro pointed.
Everyone saw floating ghost-like creatures with beady black eyes.
"Are those ghosts?" Yokoshima asked.
"They look like it," Kat reasoned.
Nanako giggled, "They look like marshmallows!"
"They're kinda cute," Kotonoha giggled.
Kazuki looked out another window and blinked as he saw that the train was on a track but no ground was present, "Guys...I don't think we're in Tokyo anymore!"
The train rolled into a city that looked like a collection of giant boilers.
"That looks like a station," Kotonoha observed. "Maybe we can ask someone where we are."
The train stopped an sighed, "OK, this is your stop!" The doors opened and the teens slowly walked out.
Kazuki blinked as he walked over to the front of the train and saw that it had big, red, eyes. "Well, now I've seen everything... A talking train."
"Hey, I'm not just a train, buddy! I'm Trailmon, but you can call me DenDen. Anyway, we're currently in the Flame Terminal, the heart of a Digimon village!"
Yokoshima blinked, "Digimon village?"
Kokoro looked to Kotonoha, "Hey, Sis, what's a Digimon?"
"We are!"
The teens were suddenly surrounded by creatures that were simply heads of fur with floppy ears and red eyes.
Kat smirked, "Isn't that nice, a welcoming party."
Nanako cringed, "I don't like the look in their eyes... How the heck do we get out of here?"
"Well, if you wanna get outta here," DenDen started as he rolled out of the terminal, "you better find the Spirit!"
"Where the hell are you going!" Yokoshima snapped. "And what the hell is a Spirit!"
Chiaki deadpanned, "Well, there goes our ride."
"So were just stuck here?" Yokoshima panicked.
Kazuki swatted him over the head, "Calm down! Panicking isn't gonna get us home! The best thing to so now is stay together and dig up some info about where we are."
It was then that another train was approaching from the line across from the other teens and stopped at the platform. The train was shaped like a red mammoth and was pulling a white car and a blue car.
"OK," the train smiled, "this is your stop."
The doors opened and two boys exited the white car. They appeared to be twins but had many differences.
One was a young man with long red hair in a braid and emerald green eyes. He wore a red Chinese shirt, black pants, and sneakers. He had a pair of green-lens goggles and wore red MMA gloves.
The other boy had a fair complexion with ice blue eyes. His hair was long, black, messy, and tied into a loose braid at the base of his skull. He wore a leather bomber jacket, blue jeans and black sneakers.
"Ah, that was a nice ride," The green-eyed boy sighed. "Don't you think so, Ryuji?"
The blue-eyed teen scoffed, "Che, only you would think so, Ryuki. What I wanna know is where the fuck we are!" (Ryuji is voiced by Steve Blum)
Ryuki sighed, "You should mind your language, Ryuji. You never know who could be listening in." (Ryuki is voiced by Brad Swaile)
"Hey," Kazuki called, "you guys got the message too?"
"Yeah," Ryuki replied as he jumped to their side of the platform in a single leap.
Ryuji did the same, "Some asshole sent us a text, telling us to go to Shibuya. Next thing we know, we end up on another train and end up here."
"I'm Kazuki Ryuunosuke," Kazuki introduced.
Ryuki smiled, "I'm Ryuki Hasuma, and it's nice to meet you!"
Ryuji spotted Kotonoha and smirked as he stalked toward the busty teen, "Hey there, honey. Name's Ryuji Hasuma and I must say it's very nice to meet you."
Kotonoha blinked, "Um, hello. I'm Kotonoha Katsura."
"Well then, miss Katsura, how's about we ditch these losers and get to know each other better?"
Kazuki grabbed him by the shoulder and turned him around, "How about no, and you back off from harassing my friend?"
Ryuji grinned, "What? You her boyfriend, tough guy?"
He glared, "That's none of your business, now is it?
"Well then it shouldn't be any of your business as to whoever she talks to," he retorted.
"Well, when my friends are harassed then I make it my business," Kazuki shot back.
Ryuji chuckled as he grabbed Kazuki by the collar, "Is that right? Why don't we see if you're as tough as you talk?"
He went for a swipe but Kazuki reared his head back, avoiding the hit and palming Ryuji in the chest, sending him back a few feet. Kazuki then went into a Muay Thai stance. Ryuji dashed toward him and swiped at Kazuki with his hands curled like claws. Kazuki got in his close and blocked the clawed strikes with his forearms. He charged electricity into his fists and began punching, but Ryuji dodged the strikes. Kazuki then went for a right roundhouse kick but Ryuji blocked the kick and grinned like a maniac as he went for the next strike, making contact that Kazuki jacket and making claw marks of ice.
Kotonoha gasped, "Kazuki!"
Yokoshima gawked, "That guys a metahuman!"
"You can do it, Kazu!" Kokoro cheered.
"Shouldn't we stop them?" Nanako questioned.
Ryuki groaned, "Ryuji always picks fights with everyone..."
Kat grinned, "Besides, who wants to stop this? This is getting good."
"And those two don't plan on stopping," Chiaki added. "Kazuki may not want to fight, but I can feel a lot of killing intent coming off him. Same for the other guy."
Kazuki ripped his jacket off and went into a KÅkutsu-dachi, "I'll say this once; that'll be the only time you land a hit on me."
Ryuki blinked, "First Muay Thai, now Karate?"
Kotonoha blinked as she saw Kazuki's stance, his left fist above his right, "Does he plan on using it?"
Ryuji smirked, "Switching styles won't help you!"
He roared as he lunged forward, ready to strike with another claw attack. However, Kazuki simply sprinted and thrust both fists forward.
"Yamazaki!"Kazuki called as he went for the counterattack.
Ryuji blinked and blocked his left fist from hitting his face.
Nanako gasped, "He blocked it!"
"Looks like he saw it coming," Yokoshima observed.
"No," Kotonoha replied.
Ryuji grinned, "Almost had me for a second...Ugh...!" He looked down and gawked as Kazuki's right fist was implanted in his gut.
Kazuki grinned, "You were saying?"
Chiaki gawked, "Whoa..."
"Way to go, Kazu!" Kokoro jumped.
"Wow," Nanako breathed, "I didn't even see him hit."
"What was that?" Ryuki asked.
"The Yamazaki," Kotonoha replied. "It is a Karate technique in which the user attacks with both fists, aiming for the face and the stomach. The opponent would block the attack aimed to the face, therefore distracting them from the Yamazaki's true target."
Ryuji backed away and grunted, "That was pretty good, but let's see ya hit this!"
He reached into his jacket and pulled out a black Remington 870 12 gauge with a sawed-off barrel and stock. He pulled the trigger but Kazuki was too fast and kicked the barrel away from the others and it fired away from them. Kazuki reached to the holster on the left side of him and pulled out a black, heavily modified, Smith & Wesson Performance Center Model 629. It had a serrated blade under the barrel. He swiped and cut Ryuji's jacket, making the wild teen back away and Kazuki aimed at Ryuji.
"Kotonoha, cover Kokoro's eyes!" He pulled the trigger.
*BLAM!*
He shot Ryuji in the gut and he was launched backward as he held his stomach that was bleeding.
He laughed as he tore his jacket off him, "You're just full of surprises!" His bullet wound suddenly closed up.
Yokoshima gawked, "He can regenerate too! ?"
His eyes still trained on Ryuji, Kazuki called out, "Kotonoha, you and the others get some cover! This is gonna get messy!"
The group, as well as the Digimon, all took cover and the battle resumed. Both opponents dashed toward each other and pulled their respective triggers.
*BLAM!*
*BLAM!*
Ryuji shot Kazuki in the chest as Ryuji was hit in the cheek but both wounds merely closed up as the bullets were pushed out of their bodies and their bodies were healed.
Nanako cringed, "You gotta be kidding me...!"
"This could go on forever," Chiaki frowned.
They danced around each other, guns blazing and punches and kicks flying as they parried each other's blows. It did seem like an even fight as none of their attacks made contact and they tried their hardest to kill each other. Whatever injuries they inflicted upon each other were quickly healed.
'One bullet left..'Kazuki thought, 'better put him to bed and end this..!'He aimed at Ryuji and Ryuji aimed at Kazuki when all of a sudden...
*KIN!*
"ENOUGH!"
Kotonoha was between the two of them now in a crouching position, with both guns on the floor as she held up a katana, between Kazuki and Ryuji, over her head with her right hand. In her left hand was a white saya (scabbard). Ryuji gawked as he saw the blade in his face. The handle's ito (braid) was white and the same (ray skin) was green, the kashira (butt cap) being gold. The tsuba (guard) was gold, as was the habaki (blade collar).
Nanako gawked, "She had a sword...? !"
Kat laughed, "HA HA HA HA! This is too much!"
Yokoshima paled, "I think we're in trouble..."
Chiaki shook his head, "We'll be fine, as long as we don't make her angry."
Kotonoha stood up and glared at Ryuji, "Mr. Hasuma, I'd appreciate it if you do NOT attack my friends for any reason, whatsoever. Am I clear?"
Ryuji gulped, 'Holy shit...!'"Crystal..." He backed away and picked up his shotgun, glaring at Kazuki as he returned to his brother's side.
Ryuki sighed, "Thank goodness somebody was able to strop them!"
Kotonoha sheathed her sword and turned to her friend, "Are you alright?"
Kazuki nodded with a grin, "I'm OK, and I had it covered." He opened the cylinder and showed his last bullet which had a green casing, "I was gonna put him to sleep with this last bullet, but I appreciate you stepping in and not letting me waste ammo. Been a while since I've seen you move so fast, 'Shinsoku Tenshi'."
She smiled, "Well, I've been practicing with Shigure while you were away." She glared, "What else what I was supposed to do when you were off traveling the world?"
Kazuki sweat-dropped, "It was Akisame-shishou's fault..."
She smiled, "Well, I forgive you." She kissed him on the cheek, making Kazuki blush.
All of a sudden, a red flash caught everyone's attention and gaped at a part of the city being engulfed in flames before turning into glowing bar codes.
"Baddaybaddaybadday BAD DAY!" screamed a voice as it ran out of the flames. It was a boy who appeared to be 14 and he was dressed in a white cloak with blue flame patterns on it. He had pale blue skin, red eyes, and white hair. In one hand was a book with runic writing on the cover and he carried a green staff in the other. slung across his chest was a bag.
Giving chase was a larger creature that appeared to be reptilian in nature but was covered in dark red flames. He had a helmet on his head and yellow eyes. The beast was also armed with long, sharp claws.
"What the hell is that?" Yokoshima yelled.
Kazuki frowned, "Don't know, but that kid's in trouble!"
Ryuki was then glomped when the boy suddenly crashed into him, making him fall on his ass. "Ow..."
The boy looked up and blinked, "Oh, I'm sorry. Are you OK?"
"I should be asking you that," Ryuki retorted.
He blinked, "Wait, you're a human."
Ryuki nodded, "That's right. So, what's wrong, and why are you running?"
The boy turned and cringed, "DarkLizardmon..."
DarkLizardmon approached the two and growled, "Where is the Legendary Spirit?"
"I already told you I don't know where it is!"
"Fool! Don't lie to me! This place is the home to the Legendary Spirit!"
Kazuki frowned, "Legendary...Spirit...? Argh!" He held his head in pain again as images flashed through his head again. This time he saw two angelic beings in armor. "What the hell was that...?"
Kotonoha was at his side, "Kazuki, what's wrong? You don't look so good."
Kokoro frowned and ran out to them, getting between the boys and DarkLizardmon, "Hey, leave them alone, you big bully!"
Kotonoha and Kazuki gasped, "Kokoro!"
"Get out of my way, runt," DarkLizardmon growled. "Dread Fire!" He unleashed a wave of black flames from his body.
Ryuki got in front and punched forward as he unleashed a blast of flames, colliding with DarkLizardmon's flames, "I don't like people who threaten kids!"
"So, the guy's a pyrokinetic," Chiaki observed.
"So, there's some fight in you," DarkLizardmon chuckled. "Dread Fire!"
"Get behind me!" Ryuki ordered the kids as he put up barrier, using his telekinesis.
"We have to run!" the boy said.
Ryuki nodded and picked up the kids as he ran but went he wrong way as he walked along the tracks that led to the cliff. The ground that was beneath them had turned into bar codes and was being absorbed into DarkLizardmon's mouth.
The boy growled, "That bastard's taking this town's Digicode!"
The track creaked and cried as it began to gave way and the three panicked as they were close to falling into the black abyss.
"Sis!" Kokoro cried.
Kotonoha gasped, "Kokoro!"
Kazuki dashed over to them and called out, "Ryuki, get off that track and jump!"
"Are you crazy?" he demanded.
"Just do it!"
Ryuki took a deep breath as he jumped and they fell. Kazuki jumped as well as he grabbed the three of them with one arm and aimed at the cliff with his gun, Dogma. He pulled the trigger and it shot out a grappling hook attached to a cable. The hook dug into the cliff side and Kazuki swung into a large opening, landing onto the ledge with the others.
"You guys OK?"
"More or less..." Ryuki groaned.
Kokoro cried as she hugged Kazuki, "Kazu, I was so scared!"
Kazuki smiled an rubbed her back comfortingly, "It's OK, Kokoro."
On the floor, next to Ryuki, was his D-Scanner. It had the same design as the others but was white with a red grip.
It began to glow and Ryuki blinked, "My D-Scanner..." It levitated and shot out a beam of light that lead to a giant furnace. The flames were dispersed by a pillar of light that shot out of the furnace. "Whoa!"
The boy gasped, "That's..." Shards of energy gathered and formed a collection of armor that appeared to be themed after a dragon. "The Legendary Spirit!"
Kazuki gazed at the armor, "That's the Spirit?"
"Maybe it can get us home?" Kokoro suggested as she remembered DenDen's words.
"I've found you!" DarkLizardmon roared, alerting the kids. "Ah, so the Spirit was here after all!"
Kazuki frowned. This Spirit must be important if DarkLizardmon wanted it so badly. He turned to the boy, "Hey kid, what's your name?"
The boy blinked, "Arcanamon." (Arcanamon is voiced by Brianne Siddall)
He smiled, "I'm Kazuki. And you can bet this jerk won't get that Spirit! Right, Ryuki?"
Ryuki nodded as he ignited his fists in flames, "You got that right!"
Kazuki's fists ignited with electricity and Arcanamon blinked with surprise, 'Could he be...?'
"Ryuki, secure the Spirit! I'll handle this loser!"
Ryuki bugged, "You want me to go inside that thing? !"
"Only option at this point! Your D-Scanner found it, so it must be yours! Now go!"
He shot a blast of electricity at DarkLizardmon giving Ryuki the chance to run for the pillar. Ryuki yelled as he jumped in and landed on a surface. He blinked and checked himself, for he wasn't burned.
"It's not hot," he realized as he saw the armor floating to him. He gasped as he saw a ghost of an armored figure and they walked toward each other. Ryuki was then covered in a white light blinding everyone.
"What the hell is going on?" Kat demanded.
"Something's happening to Ryuki," Ryuji realized.
"Spirit!" Ryuki called as his D-Scanner flew into his hands and he pointed it at the armor. The armor was absorbed into the D-Scanner. The kanji for "Fire"appeared on the D-Scanner's screen and Ryuki was covered in flames.
Music - Reckless Fire
Ryuki lifted his left hand and a ring of Digicode floated around his hand as he connected it with the top of his D-Scanner. "Execute!" He ran the D-Scanner and the Digicode expanded and divided as they covered Ryuki's body. "Spirit Evolution!"
His clothes exploded off his body as a large image of the armor appeared over him and ignited in flames. His front and back were covered by a grid as the armor began to pile onto his limbs. The parts closed together and Ryuki had become a new being.
He was now clad in a black bodysuit with the chest armor having red pecs and white plating on his abdomen. The shoulder pads were red and had silver claws jutting out from the end. He had red gauntlets that mimicked dragon scales and the gloves were armored and tipped with claws. His legs were covered in red, shin-high, greaves that mimicked dragon scale and his feet looked reptilian. His red helmet also had a dragon-like appearance as the sides of the helmet had red fin-like protrusions. The helmet covered his face, save for his his mouth, and his, now red eyes, glowed brightly and two silver fangs extended from the sides of the chin guard. He wore a white belt that had the kanji for "Fire" at the center of his red and gold buckle.
He struck a pose and called out, "Ketumon!"
He roared and he dispersed the flames with a wave of his hand.
Kazuki gawked, "Whoa...!"
"Cool!" Kokoro beamed.
Darklizardmon growled angrily, "It must be a trick! No way a pathetic human could become a Digimon!" He roared as he rushed at Ketumon, only to gasp in pain as Ketumon violently punched him in gut, making it stumble backwards.
Arcanamon opened his book and flipped through the pages, "Could it be... Here it is! Ketumon, the Legendary Warrior of Fire! His title in battle was 'Dragon of the Inferno'!"
Ketumon looked to Kazuki, "Get to safety. I'll handle this."
Kazuki nodded and grabbed the two children, "OK!" He shot his grappling hook and flew up to the surface.
The others were watching from above.
"Look at that," Yokoshima marveled.
"Cool," Nanako breathed.
Kat smirked, "That looks like fun!"
Ryuji and Chiaki were silent.
Kotonoha ran to Kazuki, "Kokoro! Kazuki!"
Kokoro ran to her older sister, "Sis!"
"Kazuki, what happened to Ryuki?"
Kazuki grinned, "He's a Digimon now!"
"Snipe Fang!"DarkLizardmon roared as he shot his claws at Ketumon. But he side-stepped the projectiles.
Ketumon got in his face and performed a strong uppercut. He then pummeled DarkLizardmon with a series of kicks. He crouched and ignited his fist in flames and gave him another uppercut that made them both burst in spiraling flames as Ketumon launched DarkLizardmon into the air.
"Shinryuken!"Ketumon called as DarkLizardmon roared in pain and his body turned black as a ring of Digicode appeared around his body.

"May the might of flames purify your tainted soul!" He flashed his D-Scanner and ran it across the Digicode. "Digicode...scan!" The Digicode was absorbed into the D-Scanner and DarkLizardmon was reduced to an egg as it flew away. he crouched down and was engulfed in Digicode as he reverted back to Ryuki
Kazuki jumped down to the cliff, "Ryuki! You OK?"
He panted but smiled, "I'm fine...just tired... But what happened? I became a Digimon..."

"Digi.."
"Destined...?" Kazuki finished.

Kazuki growled, "Wait a second! How the hell do you know my name?"

Kazuki frowned, "Something tells me we're knee-deep in more trouble than I thought."
From a distance, a black, wolf-themed Trailmon is seen rolling toward the terminal, with a familiar, silver-haired, teen in the white car.
