Spy Guy: Ok now...Here's the moment' we've all been waiting for. The sequal to true key.
The new key
This story goes more into the significance of the X anti body in Danny's life, and the symbiotic relationship that they share...all while Kapurimon's watching tv, and Kudamon's talking to telemarketers, with a little bit of online book reviewing on the side.
But when Wisemon makes his next move, Danny discovers a new digidestined in Danielle. Now he and Dobermon must put aside their differances to save her from her own corrupted key, while running from the mysterious Mr. Beta, who's sole purpose is to rid the world of all digimon.
This Story kinda skips slighly. Originally it wasn't supposed to, but...I din't like it, so I just skipped forward. Hope it's ok.
No time for reviews. It's midnight, and the new digimon savers theme, Hirari, just finished loading. Got to lisetn. (Runs off.)
"Easy now Danny." Maddie said, as she led her son over to his bed. "Take it easy, please."
"I'm fine mom." The boy smiled weakly, slowly climbing amongst the soft blankets.
"I just can't believe you got attacked by that…thing." She said. "Are you sure you were ready to come home?"
"I'm sure mom." Danny sighed, situating himself on his back, favoring his ribs. "I was tired of the hospital."
He turned to the window, and smiled slightly, as he saw Terriermon waving from the roof of the house next door.
"Now make sure you go right to sleep." Maddie said, tucking her son in. "No talking on the phone, or using the computer. You need to get a lot of rest."
"I know mom." The boy sighed.
"Alright." The woman frowned, walking from the room, and closing the door behind her.
"Danny!" The small rabbit called. He jumped into the air, letting the wind catch his ears. The boy slowly got up, and opened the window to let him inside.
"Good to see you back to normal." Terriermon smiled. "But get back in bed, and away from the window. Lillymon said that your immune system is very vulnerable right now. You have to be careful."
"You sound like my mother." The boy laughed dryly, slowly sitting back on the bed.
"Gabumon sends his greetings, and he says he can't wait to come home."
"I want to see him again." Danny replied. "When can I go back?"
Terriermon paused for a moment, before replying…
"In a while Danny. Give them time to heal."
The boy looked away.
"It was that bad was it?" He sighed. The rabbit hopped alongside him.
"So you really don't remember it, do you?" He asked, looking up at his charge. Danny shook his head.
"That's best then." Terriermon replied. "It wasn't your fault in the first place."
"Then why do I feel so bad?" The boy asked.
"Because you're good, unlike Wisemon." The rabbit smiled. "You're Danny Fenton...Momentai."
"Yeah…" Danny trailed off, giving a large yawn.
"You need to sleep." Terriermon said finally. "I should be getting back to the valley, and helping the others. "I'll come back when you're better, alright?"
Danny nodded, and slowly lay down again. As he did, a sharp pain shot through him. It seemed to burn, not like his bruised ribs, but more like a fire inside of him. He cringed, and pulled at the bed sheets.
"Danny?" The rabbit asked, looking over at the boy's contorted face. "Danny? Are you alright?"
He looked around in panic, unsure of what to do.
Just as soon as it started, the pain subsided, leaving Danny panting slightly.
"That hurt." He whispered.
"Maybe you should've stayed at the hospital." Terriermon said. "Are you sure you're alright? I can ask Jazz to tell your mom…"
"I'm fine, Terriermon." The boy smiled weakly. "I'm ok. Calm down…it was probably just…my ribs again. I did have a big gash there."
"You sure?" The rabbit asked.
"Yeah. I don't have to be watched over like a hawk all the time. I'll be fine."
Terriermon smiled, and then hopped through the window again. Danny felt too drained to close it, so he just shut his eyes…and fell into a deep sleep.
The boy could feel the moonlight shining on his face. There he stood, overlooking a cliff, down at the valley.
"Stand down, Wolf." Snarled what looked like an armored lizard, holding a large gun. It was pointed straight at Danny. He gasped, and leapt into the air, right across the moon, about to land in the woods that surrounded the valley. As he was descending, there was a thunderous bang, and pain shot through him. Danny howled as he felt himself going into free fall, the trees below him quickly approaching…
"Danny…Danny…I need to talk to you…" Whispered a voice.
"Danny…it's been too long. Wake up."
"Wha?" The boy asked, as he slowly opened his eyes. He instantly closed them, blinded by a white light.
"It's alright. I won't harm you."
Danny finally managed to force his lids open, and he gasped as he saw the wolf from his dreams…standing before him, surrounded in spectral mist. It slowly approached him, setting his muzzle on the bed. Danny weakly reached out a hand and stroked him. He spotted the X scar on the wolf's forehead.
"It's from the X anti body." He said, noticing the boy's gaze. "It marked me as different from anyone else. This mark only is visible on your biomerge form…for now."
"For now?" Danny asked.
The wolf nodded, allowing his ears to be scratched.
"The anti body is like a living thing, and like every living thing, it thirsts for power. You have to be careful not to let it taste this power. That would end badly for you."
"Why?" Danny asked.
"If it tastes power of too great a level too often, it will grow accustomed to it…and demand that power from you all the time. But you most likely won't be able to provide it, so it will take that power from your life force, and destroy you…as it did me."
"So all of my dreams…they were what really happened?" The boy whispered. Garurumon X pulled away, and nodded.
"They are my memories of that night…the night that I found you…"
"Thank you." Danny smiled. "For saving me …"
"I'm not sure if I did harm or good." The wolf replied.
Danny looked at him in surprise.
"Merely hear me out." He continued. "Wisemon was looking to use the X anti body on a human, to make them worthy enough to be his partner and allow him to digivolve to mega. When he discovered the X antibody, he intended to do just that. But I stole it. I instantly knew that it had tasted Wisemon's power, and expected it from me. But I had to get it away. Then something seemed to lead me right to the hospital…"
"And to me." Danny finished. Garurumon X nodded.
"Yes. You were able to take it for some reason, even though you seemed weaker than I did. You and the X anti body share a symbiotic relationship. It gave you the power you needed to live, and now that you are stronger, you feed it."
Danny nodded in understanding.
"Wisemon's going to come after you, to make sure of your ultimate defeat. Then he will steal the X anti body and use it to seize the digital world once more. The entire fate of two worlds rests on you. Danny, I know you can do it."
"I'll try." The boy sighed, as his head fell back on his pillow, unable to keep it up anymore. Garurumon X stood there for a moment, before picking something off the ground, and setting it beside him. Danny slowly moved his hand toward it, picking the thing up. It was a leather bracelet, with a round piece of metal branded into it. The design on the front was shaped like an X.
"Somewhere in the digital world is a stone that will fit into that spot. It will allow you to temporarily pass the X antibodies' power onto your digimon, so he can be stronger."
"Thank you." Danny smiled, setting it back down.
"And now I have to go." Garurumon X said softly. "You won't be seeing me anymore."
The boy nodded, and watched as the wolf disappeared from view.
"Raven." Kudamon smiled as his partner came home from school. "There was a call today. It was Danny's parents. They said he came home today, and that he wanted to see you."
"You answered the phone again didn't you?" Sam said.
The small fox nodded, but still padded after the girl as she headed up to the room.
"I told them I was the butler. They believed me."
"Kudamon, we don't have a butler."
"But they obviously didn't know that." The digimon insisted. "I enjoy talking on the phone. There were these people today, trying to sell you some timeshares, and I didn't know what they were, but I figured that you didn't want them, so I started talking about the wall paper. They just kept trying to get me to give them a credit card number, so I started reading off pi, and when they told me that that number was too long, I hung up, and ran around the house laughing."
"That really doesn't sound like you." Sam said, walking into her room.
"I never knew what fun phones were." Kudamon laughed. "It's weird talking to someone you can't see."
"We need to get you a hobby." The girl sighed, taking out a book from her bag, and setting it on the bed.
"What are you reading?" The fox asked, jumping next to it.
"Howl's moving castle." Sam replied. "It's kinda confusing, but I really like it."
Kudamon gave it a sniff then opened the cover with his paws, looking over the first few lines.
"Starts off rather dull, doesn't it? That Sophie needs to be more confident in herself. What's wrong in being the eldest?"
There was silence as he turned a few more pages.
"And she also needs to stop talking to inanimate objects. She might be more successful if she wasn't mental."
"That's what you could do." Sam smiled, picking the book up once more. "You could be an online book critic."
"What?" The fox asked.
"An online book critic." The girl continued. "You can make a website, read a book, and then tell what was good or bad about it. You read fast enough."
"Could I really do that Raven?" Kudamon asked. The girl nodded.
"All we have to do is make a website. That's easy enough. But you need a pen name."
She paused, deep in thought for a moment, dragging her laptop out and turning it on. Then she smiled and said,
"We can call you, Kudagitsune."
The small fox cocked his head in confusion.
"Why Raven?" He asked.
"In Japanese legend, a Kudagitsune is a pipe fox. You were obviously created with a pipe fox in mind, hence your name starting with Kuda. Kudagitsune."
"Oh I see Raven." The fox smiled. "What do I do?"
"It'll take a while to get ready." The girl replied. "In the meantime, don't talk to any more telemarketers. Someone's bound to know we don't have a butler sooner or later."
"Hey, Danny." Jack smiled, walking into the room. "I called Sam, and talked to her butler. Since when did she have a butler?"
The boy looked up at his father, confusion written across his face.
"She doesn't." He replied.
Jack's eyes glassed over as he seemed to get lost deep in his thoughts. Then he finally said,
"Oh…well then I left a message with a complete stranger. He sounded like one of those snobby British guys you see on PBS."
"Kudamon…" The boy thought.
"Oh…" Danny added quickly. "You mean that butler. Yeah. They have a butler."
"That's good. He said that he'd tell, Raven…whoever that is."
"Definitely Kudamon." Danny smiled slightly. "Can I call her back?"
At that moment, Maddie walked in, holding a glass of water and a pill in her hand.
"You should wait, Sweety." She replied, standing by her son's bed, and placing the pill in his hand. "You're going to go straight to bed after this. You need sleep more than anything else."
"But mom…" The boy protested, but he was silenced by his mother's glare. Danny looked at the pill forlornly, and placed it on his tongue, taking the water, and swallowing. He blanched from the bitter taste.
"I know it tastes bad." Maddie continued. "But it'll help you get better. It's what you really need right now. I'm sure Sam can wait."
Danny nodded, almost instantly feeling sleep coming upon him. His eye lids drooped, and he was once again unconscious on his bed.
Dani and Dobermon walked down the streets of Elmerton, looking around at all the shop windows, their mouths watering as they looked at the tantalizing food that they held.
"I'm so hungry." The girl sighed.
"Where do you usually get food?" Dobermon asked.
Dani smiled, and walked over to a window. In an instant, she was gone, leaving only an empty spot where she had been before. She appeared a second later, holding two doughnuts in her hands. She quickly ate one, holding the other out for the Doberman. He looked at it with confusion.
"It's not yours Dani." He said.
"I know." The girl replied. "But when you're out on the streets like me, you have no choice. But when I find who I'm looking for, then I'll stop. We'll have a nice place to stay, and warm meals. We'll ever made you a big doghouse that you can fit in."
"If you're sure…" Dobermon whispered, taking the doughnut in his teeth. They continued to walk along, some people mumbling about the leash law.
"What does that mean?" The digimon asked quietly, so no one could hear him.
"It means that I don't have you under control with a rope. It's to make sure that stray dogs don't bite somebody."
"I wouldn't bite without reason." Dobermon added.
"But they don't know that." Danny sighed. They walked even farther down the side walk. Dani gasped as a man stopped them.
"Hello, little girl." He said, smiling pleasantly. He was tall, dressed all in black, his hair and sunglasses the same color. Just looking at him sent a shiver down Dani's spine. Dobermon sensed it, and kept his guard up.
"That's a very nice dog you have." The man continued, placing a square black device in his pocket, after looking at it for a brief moment. "You look down on your luck. How about I buy him from you? I'll pay anything."
"I'm sorry." The girl replied. "He's not for sale."
"Come on little girl." The man insisted. "He looks like a lot of trouble. You obviously need a better place to stay, some new clothes maybe? I can give that to you."
"I'm going someplace." Dani growled. "Leave me alone."
The two turned to go.
"I really want that dog." The man persisted, resting his hand on Dani's shoulder. Dobermon snarled, and lashed out, his teeth sinking into the man's arm. He cried out, and withdrew, looking at his injury.
"That dog is more dangerous that you could possibly ever know. It'd be best if you gave him up right now, before I have to take him from you."
"Get away!" Dani screamed, as the man reached out for her once more. Dobermon bared his fangs, and placed himself between the two.
"Run Dani!" He snarled, not caring if the man heard.
He sneered, but pulled away.
"I will have your dog, little girl."
Dani turned and ran down the sidewalk as fast as she could, Dobermon running at her heels.
Spy Guy: This is kinda...fast slow. But I promise once the action picks up it'll get better. If you don;t like it, I can change it. K?
