Red vs. Blue: The Myotismon Crisis

Prologue: Two victories

Odaiba, Earth 1999

Myotismon looked from the top of the TV station pleased with himself. He had done it, he had defeated the Digidestined. They almost had him, in fact, if Angewomon's arrow had struck him he would have lost, however he simply dodged the arrow (it had been ridiculously easy to do so, they hadn't tried to tire him out or anything) and after half an hour they had been beaten. Their Digimon partners, sent to his castle in the digital world as prisoners while the Digidestined themselves had been taken to the local police station under his control and were imprisoned awaiting their inevitable execution, they were enemies of his rule after all. He wore the crests around his neck and held the digivices in his hand with a sadistic smirk on his face as he delivered his cliche 'villain laugh'. He pondered the faces of their parents, stricken with fear and pain and the other people, hopeless and in despair as his laugh continued.

"A monumental success." he said to no one in particular as his laugh subsided "with my victory over the Digidestined, who can possibly stop me now?"

Staff of Charon, Chorus 2552

Dexter Grif paused as he finished loading the 'Grif Shot' staring off into space. The Reds and Blues of Blood Gulch were inside the office of Malcolm Hargrove, Head of Charon Industries and Chairman of the UNSC Oversight subcommittee. Along with his titles of power, the only noteworthy thing about Hargrove was the fact that he and the men working for him were all guilty of the attempted genocide of the people of Planet Chorus, his plan had been going well, the denizens were locked in a bloody civil war, his mercenaries, Locus and Felix, had played both sides and given them everything they needed to kill each other. Hargrove figured that while burning the planet in Nuclear fire to claim the Alien artifacts hidden there would work, it would also cause people to ask questions, but if Charon simply walked onto the planet to find that they had killed each other, well, that was just a tragedy.

Of course, everything had gone well until the Reds and Blues had crash landed on Chorus, joined the conflict to save each other after they had supposedly been captured, discovered the truth, showed evidence to both sides while simultaneously uniting them against Charon. And now they were here, Felix was dead, Locus had fled, the war had been won, but there was one last battle. Hargrove admitted that he had lost, but he was determined to ensure that the Reds and Blues died in his office as he sent his remaining space pirates to attack them. But something else was on the mind of Dexter Grif.

"Grif, GRIF!" Grif jumped as he recognized his comrade and long time friend Lavernius Tucker looking at him. "Grif, come on man, Hargrove's men will break through any second what's wrong with you."

"Nothing, I just got the funny feeling that someone was asking for us to beat them up. I guess the Chairman won't be our last enemy."

"Whatever dude, worry about that later we need to hold this place until reinforcements get here. We can do this guys." Tucker said looking at the others as they continued their preparations. Tucker looked at Church, also known as the Epsilon A.I. unit, Church hovered right next to Tucker's head standing ten inches tall. "We can do this right Church?"

"I've been running the calculations in my head." Church said with a sigh "Were close, but not quite there yet. F.I.L.S.S., bring up the suit." As he said that, a compartment in the floor opened up and a suit of armor was raised, the same armor worn by one of the Reds and Blues worst enemies, The Meta. "Get changed Tucker" Church said and three minutes later Tucker was wearing the Meta's armor, with every single enhancement that came with it. "How does it feel?"

"Uh, tight in the crotch" Tucker said while stretching "but, I could get used to this." he finished as the color of the armor changed from white to Aqua matching Tucker's regular armor. Tucker activated his energy sword as Sarge leveled his shotgun towards the door proud in his Red armor.

"Today is a good day to die" he said in his trademarked southern accent.

"Permission to speak freely sir?" Grif asked walking next to him with his 'Grif' shot aimed at the door and Orange armor gleaming. "**** that". Simmons in his Maroon armor stood beside his friends and nodded in agreement training a battle rifle at the doorway. Lopez, the Spanish speaking robot wearing brown armor leveled two pistols towards the door.

"(in Spanish) If I die, make sure they recycle my parts" he said

"You're my best friend too Lopez." Donut sniffled in his pink armor as he held an alien rifle in his arms. Doc stepped up besides him in his purple armor and holding a Rocket Launcher with his split personality and former enemy of the Reds and Blues in his mind, O'Malley.

"That's great guys" Doc said as he aimed for the door while O'Malley took over

"Now, let us feast on the blood of our enemies!" O'Malley cried out earning a nod of approval from Sarge. Caboose moved up next to Tucker in his Blue armor and trained his assault rifle at the door.

"Let's win, Freckles" Caboose said to the A.I. installed in the rifle

"Affirmative, Captain Caboose." Freckles replied in his raspy voice. Tucker activated his energy sword as Charon was nearly done breaking through the door.

"Guys" Church spoke up "Whatever happens here, I just wanted you to know, that I hated you all the least."

"See you on the other side Church." Tucker said as the door burst open and Charon soldiers stormed inside. The first several of them were gunned down by the combined fire of the Reds and Blues, but a rocket was fired into the room afterwards. Tucker leaped forward and activated the bubble shield to keep the rocket from causing any harm. Tucker than switched out his energy sword for two submachine guns and fired into the crowd of Charon soldiers that were coming their way. While the other Reds and Blues took care of the ones that entered the office, Tucker took the initiative and advantage of his new armor to charge at the incoming enemy. He used a speed boost and his energy sword to cut through five of them with a single sprint. He kept using the energy sword at a group of enemies that were charging him.

"Swish, swish, stab" he said as he brought them down. He was about to continue when Caboose charged past him and tackled a pair of soldiers.

"My name is Michael J. Caboose" he said picking one of them up and punching him through a wall. "And I" he continued as Freckles fired the gun at another soldier "Hate" he said as he picked up one of the knocked out soldiers and threw him at the others "Karen".

"It's Charon you idiot" Tucker exclaimed

"Them too" Caboose replied as he and Tucker kept fighting more of them, once no more soldiers were able to get into the office, the others ran up and continued firing on the Charon soldiers. Donut got a bunch of grenades from the fallen Charon soldiers and began throwing them at the approaching soldiers. Several minutes later, the Reds and Blues noticed that Charon was fighting on two fronts and saw Agent Washington in his black armor with yellow trim throwing knives at a pair of Charon soldiers with grenade launchers Agent Carolina was right next to him in her own set of Aqua armor using a pair of shock batons to take down several soldiers. With them, multiple soldiers from Chorus were fighting off the other Charon soldiers and were pushing towards the bridge to capture Hargrove. Ten minutes later, Hargrove was in custody and was being taken to a temporary prison on Chorus where he would stay until the UNSC picked him up/

"We did it!" Tucker yelled in excitement as the Reds, Blues, and Freelancer agents cheered. It was over, Chorus was safe, they had won. "We won, isn't that great, Church?" Tucker asked, after a minute passed without a response, everyone was silent with a terrible feeling in their stomachs. "Church?!" Tucker asked more frantically.

"I have a recording saved into my armor" Carolina said with fear creeping into her voice, she played it after trembling for half a minute.

"Hi guys" the recording began in Church's voice "If you're listening to this you did it, you kicked the **** out of Charon's forces." The message from Church played on the way it was recorded and after it was finished, the joy of victory was gone, the Epsilon A.I. unit, Leonard Church, their friend and companion had died, for real this time.

And, that's the prologue, next time: Gennai and his allies attempt to free one of the Digimon from Myotismon's castle in the Digital World. Will it work? And how can the digidestined come back from this? Find out in Chapter 1: Break Out/ The Search Begins.
