Chapter two "More Digimon?"

"To the left," Amber said to Volpinomon who was scooting a screen along with Amber into place on the stage. All of Amber's theatre friends had left because they had things to do and Amber said she would stay to try to get more done for them, which she knew would be fine since no one would be there to see her get extra help from her newest digital friend. Slowly Volpinomon scooted the screen forward in the direction her tamer instructed. "That's good," Amber called to the little Digimon.

"You sure?" the fox asked her tamer who was making her way down the ladder.

"Yeah, I'm sure," she replied.

"Who are you talking to?" came a sudden male voice behind Amber making her gasp and almost fall off the ladder, but a pair of male hands steadied her. She glanced back sharply as Volpinomon dashed away to keep to the shadows as Amber told her to do should someone sneak up on them to see who snuck up on her. He looked like he was possibly 3 years older then her making him 24 since she was 21 with rust colored hair that slicked back with a bit of a wave in it and gray eyes. "You okay?" he asked her.

"Yeah. I didn't hear anyone enter the stage area," she replied as she dusted off her leaf green t-shirt and jeans. She had tucked her D-Link into her jeans pocket soon after arriving at the theatre. "Who are you?" she questioned him.

"I'm Draven Atlas and you are?" he questioned in return. She took note that he wore a tight crimson shirt it appeared under a black leather Duster coat that reached down to his shoes, which were dark blue leather boots, and tight blue jeans.

"I'm Amber Briggs," she said being cautious. Amber remembered what Volpinomon said about a human teaming up with Spectremon and all and she was going to keep her guard up if this was the guy who had hurt her newest friend. "What are you doing here?" she questioned him.

"Fair question. I came in here looking for something," he replied. Amber straightened herself as he glanced around the stage. "By any chance have you seen any strange creatures running around?"

"No. Why?" she asked in reply unsure if he meant Digimon or not.

"Why not just in a round about way ask her out?" came a female voice making the duo turn to see a girl a year older then Amber and a 15 year old girl beside her at one of the main doors into the seating area. She had dark brown hair held up in a ponytail and green eyes. She wore a long sleeved dark red shirt along with jeans that had a small hole in her left knee, and teal and green sneakers.

"J-Jenna," the 15 year old said with a French accent to the older girl. She had brown eyes and brown hair that was long and reached her mid-back, her bangs slightly covered her eyes, and it all looked un-brushed. She wore a green t-shirt, a baggy black unzipped hoodie, khaki cargo pants, and black sneakers.

"It's true Echo with the way he is looking at her at least," the 22 year old girl, Jenna, said as the new duo approached the stage. "Right…Darius? Flynn?" she questioned drawing attention to the second set of doors where two boys stood.

"Jenna does have a point Draven," said Flynn who looked 20-ish calmly. He had orange colored hair and dark green eyes that watched Amber as she held her ground. He wore a dark green shirt underneath a sweat jacket and blue camouflage pants and brown hiker boots.

'Something's not right. I got a bad feeling about this,' Amber thought to herself as the other male she guessed to be Darius who looked 24 approached her. He had black hair and amber colored eyes. He wore a dark purple t-shirt and shiny black pants with tan dress shoes.

"If you won't then I will," Darius said with a Scottish blur to his words, "Seen any Digimon?"

Amber tried not to let her surprise show, but she failed as she saw them smirk as her eyes widened. 'Maybe this Draven guy is the one with Spectremon and these others are his underlings,' she thought and backed away from them all.

"Please don't back away," Draven pleaded with her.

"Leave her alone!" Volpinomon's voice called out as she head butted Draven in his chest before leaping back to stand before Amber who was glaring at the group before her.

"Oh, she thinks she can stand up against us huh?" Jenna countered as she held up a red D-Link with a flame symbol on it. Darius also held up a D-Link, but this one was purple with a cloud on it.

"So your with 'Him' huh?" Amber questioned as she brandished her own D-Link ready to fight. Volpinomon's fur bristled ready to defend both of them.

Just then Volpinomon's ear twitched and turned sharply to the right. "Watch out Amber!" she called as something came barreling in and there was more behind it. It was yellow in color with stalky eyes and brown spots.

"What are those?" Echo questioned as she hide behind Jenna.

"They are Geremon," Volpinomon said as she took a fighting stance, "They work for 'Him' and Spectremon."

"Geremon?" Amber questioned and then information appeared on her D-Link.

"Geremon the vulgar Digimon, a virus champion. A Numemon-like mollusk Digimon. It likes filthy areas and it is not strong, yet its ferocity makes it attack. It will battle endlessly even if it loses," came the same deep female voice Amber had heard when first getting Volpinomon.

"Let us help," Draven said coming to Amber's side.

"Why should I let you?" she questioned him with a glare.

"Because," Flynn said as he and everyone else came to stand beside her and Draven, "We are against Spectremon as well." He held up a yellow D-Link with a dragonhead on it and Draven held up a red D-Link with a volcano on it. Echo held up a black D-Link with a music note on it with a shy smile on her lips.

"Realize, Musemon!" Echo called. Musemon looked like a light gray small rabbit with a dark blue music note on her forehead and light blue eyes.

"Realize, Coeusmon!" Darius called. Coeusmon looked like a cross between a rooster and a crow head covered in light tan feathers with a lone dark purple feather at the back of its head and stubby wings.

"Realize, Lynmon!" Jenna called. Lynmon was a ball of dark tan fur with a cat like face, and ears along with a tiger tail at the back.

"Realize, Jaspermon!" Flynn called. Jaspermon was a reddish-brown creature with the body that looked like a small snake and the head of a small dragon. Its under-belly was bright red and had dark green eyes.

"Realize, DemiRyumon!" Draven called. DemiRyumon was a small crimson red dragonhead with four stubby legs and a small black tail while its eyes were amber in color.

The five new small Digimon appeared standing beside Volpinomon ready to fight the Geremon. "Compost Bomber!" the Geremon called launching strange objects at the group that looked like garbage.

"Do they really think that will work?" Jenna questioned as the little Digimon dodged the attack.

"It seems they do," Lynmon said in a sarcastic female voice.

"Come on. Let's take them down already," Jaspermon said with a whine in his male voice.

"Stay behind them Echo," Musemon told Echo in a female voice. Echo nodded to the little Digimon as Musemon and the other Digimon raced towards the Geremon. "Echo Cry!" Musemon hollered out unleashing a small sound wave type attack at the Geremon who covered the sides of their heads in mild pain.

"Come on Lynmon," Coeusmon called, "Tag team. Gust!"

"I'm with ya Coeusmon," Lynmon replied, "Embers!" Both attacks, a small tornado and small flames, were sent at the Geremon who took the attacks in stride not even flinching from them.

"These guys are annoying. Pyro Bubbles!" Jaspermon exclaimed unleashing red bubbles at them burning them slightly. But the attack did little to hurt them. Jaspermon growled low.

"Give it a shot Volpinomon," Amber called out.

"On it!" the little fox replied, "Beauty Beam!" A beam of pink light shot at a nearby Geremon who yelped in mild pain.

"Keep it up!" Amber cheered then gasped as she saw a Geremon start to sneak up on Volpinomon.

"Volcanic Ash!" Before Amber could call out a warning to Volpinomon DemiRyumon leapt at the Geremon gearing up to attack the little fox. Black ash was shot at the Geremon making it stagger backwards from the attack.

Amber glanced at Draven who gave her a half smile. "Said we got your back," he said simply.

Soon it appeared that the Geremon were getting the upper hand on the fight against the in-training level Digimon. "Damn, this isn't working," Jenna growled out as Lynmon growled standing before her. The little Digimon had moved to stand before their tamer.

Amber glanced around trying to figure out what to do then she glanced down at her D-Link. 'Volpinomon said that each Digimon can go to a different level of power. If only she could go to that next level now,' she thought and was surprised to see the screen of her D-Link start to glow in a soft pink light. 'Could it be that simple?' she asked herself before glancing up with determined eyes to the Geremon. She held out her D-Link towards them as the glow increased in brightness. "Volpinomon…evolve!" she called out. The others looked at her unsure what she was doing until Volpinomon was also engulfed in the same pink light.

"Volpinomon…evolve to…" Volpinomon began to grow and change into some new creature. She kept her pink color as she grew to the size of a medium house cat with a large bushy tail and a fox like face. Darker pink stripes littered her back and at the tip of her tail. "Kitrisumon!"

"It worked," Amber said in disbelief. She glanced at the others. "Why not even the playing field?"

"I like the idea," Draven said as his D-Link glowed red as he gazed at his partner, "You two DemiRyumon!"

"DemiRyumon…evolve to…" DemiRyumon began to grow and appeared to be a cross between a dino and a dragon still with the same color he had along with the same eye color. He grew two muscled legs and slightly long arms with clawed hands. All this change brought him from 0.9'5" to 3'8". "Ryumon!"

"Lynmon!" Jenna called as her D-Link glowed orange as did her partner.

"Lynmon…evolve to…" Lynmon began to grow bigger to what looked like a height of 2'9". She moved up onto two legs and two arms grew from her torso. Her tail grew slightly longer, claws appeared on her paws, and she retained her tiger fur color. "Toramon!"

"Coeusmon!" Darius called as his D-Link glowed purple.

"Coeusmon…evolve to…"Coeusmon grew to be an even bigger bird looking Digimon with his head tan in color while the rest of his body was covered in dark brown. He still had the lone dark purple feather at the back of his head, but it was slightly longer. His eyes remained the same color he had as Coeusmon. "Criusmon!"

"Musemon!" Echo exclaimed holding up her D-Link as it glowed black.

"Musemon…evolve to…" Musemon began to change just like the rest of the Digimon growing into a gray rabbit able to stand on her hind legs making her stand about 3'0" with rabbit like ears standing straight up. Her dark blue music note remained on her forehead and her eyes remained the same color. "Melomon!"

"Get them Jaspermon!" Flynn called out as his D-Link glowed yellow.

"Jaspermon…evolve to…" He kept the same color he had in his smaller form as well as his eye color s he grew taller to about 2'3" from his previous height of 1'0". He now took on a more reptile like appearance with a slight long whip like tail and his underbelly was still bright red while his head looked like a cross between a dragon and a snake. "Taimamon!"

"Now," Kitrisumon growled out, "Let's try this again. Sharp Leaf!" She swung her tail at the Geremon sending what appeared to be blades of pink energy at them making them scream in pain.

"Molten Sphere!" From Ryumon's dragon like jaw came a crimson ball of flames that he sent at the Geremon who got burned.

"Hurricane Cutter!" Criusmon called out as he pulled back one of his clawed wings then slashed at some the Geremon with the same wing sending a wave of air at them sending them flying.

"Flare Burst!" Toramon launched a medium sized flame from her mouth at the Geremon.

"Flame Jet!" Taimamon exclaimed as flames like a flamethrower came out of his mouth.

"Symphonic Striker!" Melomon's ears curled inward as she launched a loud blast of air/music at the Geremon who were all now in hysterics running around trying to escape the attacks.

"Finish this as one!" Amber called out and Kitrisumon nodded before looking at the other Rookie Digimon who gathered at her side.

"Let's finish this! Sharp Leaf!"

"Molten Sphere!"

"Hurricane Cutter!"

"Flare Burst!"

"Symphonic Striker!"

"Flame Jet!"

The attacks came together as one on all the remaining Geremon who were turned to data that zipped away quickly towards the rookie Digimon who absorbed some of it while the rest went into the D-Links the humans held. "That was…strange," Flynn said.

"Yeah, but I have a feeling we can expect more wired stuff from now on," Amber said as she gazed at her D-Link wondering what Spectremon and his partner were planning.

Far away in a strange looking castle sat a dark figure shrouded in darkness in a throne like seat as something looking almost human like stood beside him with glowing dark red eyes. "So…the Geremon were defeated. No matter I have more I can send to dispose of those who think they can stand against me," the figure said in a dark male voice while the creature grinned wickedly showing vampire like teeth. Both figures began to laugh darkly.

Too be continued…
