CHAPTER 2: WAY TO THE TOP

A day after Troy and the other DigiDestined went to the Digital World; things in the Real World are still the same. Troy is now at his Math subject, which is in fact HIS favorite subject, but he can't focus enough because he was so excited to go to the DigiWorld again.

'I wonder what Coronamon is doing at my room by now. I hope my room's not in a total mess' Troy thought as he was staring blankly at his table then someone leaned over at him and whispered, "What's up, Mr. This-Is-The-Way-To-Do-This-Problem? Why are you staring blankly? You in love again?" it was his best friend, Takashi Andou . Troy shrugged, "No. I told you before, I WILL NEVER BE IN LOVE AGAIN." The brunette whispered loudly, that whisper made their teacher look behind them, "Mr. Troy and Mr. Andou, is there something you wanted to share among us?" he said, based on his way of talking he is pissed. "N-no, sir! Sorry!" Troy said. "Okay then now back to what I was saying…" the teacher continued their discussion.

Troy sighed in relief. Meanwhile Davis and TK were bored at their lesson, "Gah. Will this time speed up?!" Davis grumbled then suddenly a memory of what happened yesterday crossed his mind; it was when he kissed Kari, his still regret that he kissed her, though. "Motomiya-san, will you answer the question on the board? That one is the easiest question!" His teacher commanded. Davis stood up and walked towards the board, the question is:

Who is the statue of the DOG at the front of the Shibuya Train Station?

'That's one easy question," TK thought. Davis started to write the answer: Hachiko. "Good job, Motomiya-kun. I thought that you aren't listening to the lesson. For that I will give you an A+ at you Quiz and Recitation." The teacher congratulated him. "Thank you, sir." Davis replied then proceeded back to his seat.

A few more minutes have passed and they have dismissed the students. Troy, Kari, Davis, TK, Cody and Yolei were gathered at the Computer Room. "Hey, Yolei! Where's Ken?" Kari greeted. "I don't know? He told me that he'll catch up with us." Yolei answered. "Well, he'd better not be late besides we're still waiting for Tai and Matt to come, right?" TK and Davis asked, in unison. "Hey! Sorry if I'm late." A voice said it was a tall man with purple hair. "Hi there, Ken!" Davis greeted his best friend, Yolei gave him a deadly look, "And WHERE exactly have you been huh, Ken Ichijouji?!" she asked Ken calmly but strict, "I… Um, was just doing… things? Yeah! Those things!" Ken stated nervously when Davis joked, "Hey, you're thinking about Yolei while masturbating, do you?!" then he put up a goofy smile. "WH-what? NO! I did not and I WILL NOT!" Ken shouted back. "You're so disgusting, Dale." Troy said and everyone laughed. "It's DAVIS! Not Dale!" Davis shouted. "Whatever."

Then, the DigiDestined saw Tai with Matt, running towards us, "Hey! Sorry we're late!" Matt and Tai apologized. "So, that means everyone's here right?" Troy asked then a little red digimon appeared in front of him; it was Sunmon. "Sunmon! You're here!" Troy greeted his digimon. "Uhm? Who is he?" Yolei, Ken and Cody asked. "I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Troy, and I'm another DigiDestined like you! I'm always a fan of yours! And this is my digimon, Sunmon." Troy introduced himself and his partner. "Hey, nice meeting you, I'm Ken Ichijouji." Ken introduced, "I'm Yolei Inoue. Nice meeting you, Troy", "And I'm Cody Hida, do not underestimate me, I may be small but I can take you down!" Cody warned. "Easy there, Cody-san." Troi said. "Now then: DigiPort OPEN!" Yolei shouted as they went inside the computer.

DIGIWORLD

"Ken! You're here!" Wormon greeted his partner. "Wormon. Boy, I'm glad to see you."Ken greeted back. "Cody! Yolei!" Armadilmon and Hawkmon greeted theirs too. "Wait. Now WHERE are we heading?" Matt asked. "We should find Gatomon first I think then Patamon to complete the team, right? After that we can proceed to find the Child of Pureness and then to Ophanimon's Palace." Troy suggested. "Good idea, but…" Tai spoke. "Climbing INFINITY MOUNAIN will take days you know?" TK grumbled. "Yeah, plus we might encounter digimons." Cody added. "Nonetheless, it's either WE climb up or wait for them to ATTACK us." Troy asked them then raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, let's go guys!" Kari agreed to Troy's statement. "Alright! To Infinity Mountain we go!" The rest of the DigiDestined said upon agreement.

A few hours of travelling on Infinity Mountain, the DigiDestined are still far from their rendezvous. "Are we there yet? I'm so thirsty…" Davis complained in a lousy tune. "Almost there, Davis! Keep yourself together!" Troy encouraged Davis. ""You know, we CAN use our Digimons, right?" Yolei sarcastically asked. "Why didn't we think of that?" Matt suggested.

*ARMOR DIGIVOLVE*

Veemon Armor Digivolve to… Raidramon: The Storming Friendship!

Hawkmon Armor Digivolve to… Halsemon: The Wings of Love!

Gatomon Armor Digivolve to…. Nefertimon: The Angel of Light!

Patamon Armor Digivolve to….. Pegasmon: The Flying Hope!

Gabumon digivolve to…. Garurumon!

"Oh yeah! Let's go, Ken!" Davis offered Ken to ride Raidramon with him. Ken nodded. "Cody! Come on!" Yolei invited Cody. "Okay. Let's go!"

"Tai! Wanna ride or should I say. Want to lift?" Kari giggled. "Nah. I'll take Garurumon. Right,Matt?" Tai joked. "Whatever." Matt muttered. "How 'bout you Troi?" Kari now asked the brunette. "You won't mind do you?" Troy asked. "Of course I won't, right Nefertimon". "Yes. Kari." Nefertimon agreed. Troy hopped on to Nefertimon, which made Davis jealous. "Hey! You're not allowed to ride with MY girl!" Davis shouted. Kari just giggled and ^THAT scene^ crossed her mind again.

At last! They have reached the top and they saw a temple there. "Kari! You're here!" a white cat-like digimon said and came rushing toward Kari. "Gatomon!" Kari went towards the Gatomon too and hugged her. "Gatomon? Who are they?" A digimon with white robe and gold armor said. "Oh, they are the DigiDestined." Gatomon explained. "Guys, this is Valkerimon. The Guardian of the Temple of Nobility. And who is that guys over there Kari?" Gatomon said. "You must be Gatomon. I'm Troy. Another DigiDestined. Child of Innocence." Troy smiled. "That one is a Coronamon, if I am not mistaken." Valkerimon asked. "Yeah, I am a Coronamon!" Coronamon giggled.

"Then, here. Take this other Digimon named Lunamon. Once you have reached Mega, these two will be more powerful!" Valkerimon explained then Lunamon popped out. "Hi, I'm Lunamon. Once you have took care of me, I can be of great help!" Lunamon introduced. "I'm Troy, nice meeting you!".

"Okay, now WE got another Digimon and have Gatomon back. What are we gonna do now?" Tai said. Then the DigiDestined heard a very loud noise coming from nowhere, "What's that sound?!" Matt complained. "I don't know but it's a Digimon!" Gatomon exclaimed. Indeed, it was a Digimon. It has a very huge cannon at its back. "Machinedramon!" Gabumon said. "DigiDestined! If you can hear me: I shall Destroy you!" Machinedramon shouted. "You, are you a Gabumon?" Lunamon recognized Gabumon. "Yes, yes I am." Gabumon said. "I forgot, Troy! Gabumon and Lunamon CAN Jogress Digivolve into a powerful digimon," Coronamon explained. Matt and Troy was surprised for this statement.. "Y-you mean not only Omnimon?" Matt asked and raised his eyebrow. ""Yes but first. I think WE SHOULD RUN!" Raidramon suggested. They ran as far as they can but they were caught by Machinedramon. "There you are: Take this cannon!" Machinedramon shouted as he shot a powerful laser from the cannon on its back. "Grrrrrr! Agumon!" Tai shouted. "Kari, me too!" Gatomon said. "TK! Let's do it!" Patamon commanded.

*DIGIVOLVE*

Agumon Warp Digivolve to….. WarGreymon!

Gatomon Digivolve to…. Angewomon!

Patamon Digivolve to…. MagnaAngemon!

"Giga Cannon!" Machinedramon launched another laser which critically hit the Digimons. "Troy! Armor Digivolve!" Coronamon commanded. "Yup! Digi Armor, Energize!" Troy shouted

*ARMOR DIGIVOLVE*

Coronamon Armor digivolve to… GoldenFlamedramon: The Innocent Courage!

"Golden Flame!" the digimon shouted then he emitted a huge Flame that swallows Machinedramon but it did not take effect. It just made Machinedramon really angry. "You insolent brats! Infinity Hand!" Machinedramon launched a laser from its hand. "Gabumon! Let's do it!" Lunamon suggested. "Right."

"Let's go Troy!" Matt said. Troy nodded in agreement and pulled out his Digivice.

*JOGRES EVOLUTION*

Lunamon…. Gabumon…. DNA Digivolve to: Sangloupmon, the Rider of the Moon!

"Great! Sangloupmon, destroy that Black Gear!" Troy and Matt commanded in unison. "As you wish, Blood Needles!" Sangloupmon released a thousand of small blades and targeted the Black Gear but it failed, it released a huge beam again. "WarGreymon, do something!" Tai shouted. "You too Angewomon, MagnaAngemon!" TK and Kari screamed. "Right! Terra Force!" WarGreymon let out a huge energy ball and tossed it towards Machinedramon who counter-attacked it, "Infinity Hand!". "Celestial Arrow, shoot!" Angewomon released an arrow made from heavenly energy which was counter-attacked too. "Giga Cannon!" Machinedramon cried out and directly shot Angewomon and knocked her out. Kari gasped, "Angewomon! Are you okay?". "Excalibur!" MagnaAngemon used the blade on its right hand and slashed Machinedramon but it was barely damaged. "Ken! Let's DNA Digivolve!" Davis shouted to his best friend. Ken nodded.

*JOGRESS EVOLUTION*

Ex-Veemon….. Stingmon…. DNA Digivolve to: Paildramon!

"Desperado Blasters!" Paildramon shouted as he shot bullets from the guns on his hips. "Puny attacks! Infinity Hand!" Machinedramon shouted as he released a huge laser from its hand then WarGreymon shielded Paildramon. "Urk! Terra Force!". "Sangloupmon! Do something!" Matt shouted. "But if I do it, this will risk his life!" Sangloupmon shouted. "No! There must be another way!" Troy shrugged. Then they heard a voice:

"DigiDestined! I have observed you problem here, but Taichi Kamiya! Take this gift from Azulongmon! Then destroy the Black Gear quickly! But take note: Destroying the Black Gear will cause the Digimon ti risk his/her life!"

Then a glowing light came and was given to Tai. "Huh? What's this for?" Then the light shone bright, "Tai! I fell power coming from that light!" WarGreymon said as the light was absorbed by his. WarGreymon began glowing, "What's this power I'm feeling?" he said.

WarGreymon Digivolve to… VictoryGreymon!

The appearance of WarGreymon has changed, he now has a very huge digimon with a very large sword, "I am Victory Greymon, another form of WarGreymon. My 'Dramon Breaker' can pulverize my enemies !" the huge Digimon spoke. "Whoa! Victory Greymon!" Tai was amazed on what happened. "Even that worthless creature can't defeat me, Giga Cannon!" Machinedramon shouted as he launched another attack. "The Gate of Destiny!" " Take this, Heaven's Charm!" Angewomon and MagnaAngemon counter-attacked. "Desperado Blasters!" Paildramon backed the two digimons up! "Halsemon! We'll Armor Digivolve!" Yolei commanded as the digimon returned to its Rookie form.

*ARMOR DIGIVOLUTION*

Hawkmon Armor Digivolve to…. Shurimon: The Samurai of Sincerity!

"Double Stars!" Shurimon threw two large shurikens at the Machinedramon but the machine digimon just shrugged it off him. "Ankylomon, it's your turn!" Cody cried out. "Tail Hammer!"

"Let's finish it off, Victory Greymon! I'll immobilize him then you destroy the gear!" Sangloupmon shouted. 'We can't risk that Digimon's life!' TK thought. 'Aren't there any other ways to remove that Black Gear?!' Kari thought deeply, they do not want to see another Digimon die again. VictoryGreymon nodded, "Ready when you are!". "Everyone! Stay back! Let us handle this one!" Sangloupmon commanded the other digimons which followed him. "Giga Cannon!" Machinedramon tried to attack the two digimons but VictoryGreymon shielded the attack, "Victory Shield! Sangloupmon, hurry!"! "Hai! Black Mind!" Sangloupmon used his special attack, he vanished and then he melted the opponent's shadow causing Machinedramon unable to move. "Yeah! That's the way, Sangloupmon!" Matt shouted. "Now then, VictoryGreymon finish it off!" Tai commanded. "Prepare yourself, Dramon….. BREAKER!

VictoryGreymon dashed forward holing the 'Dramon Breaker' and successfully destroyed the Black Gear but unfortunately, Machinedramon was heavily damaged. "Machinedramon! Are you okay?" Kari ran towards the damaged Machinedramon, "Thank…you… for….saving….me…" Machinedramon can barely talk. "Hold on there, Machinedramon! I'm sure we can heal you!" Kari said with a fake smile on her face, the reason why she's like this because she doesn't want anymore digimon sacrifices. "No…I will.. be.. fine.." Machinedramon said weakly. "No! There's got to be a cure right, Davis? TK?" Kari said worriedly the two boys did not respond, "Kari, let's just take the truth. Machinedramon can't hold on much longer!" Tai said. "NO! I'm not just gonna stand here and do—" she was cut off when she heard a voice, "Celestial….ARROW!". Kari gasped and looked around for her Gatomon but she's there. "Kari! Why did an Angewomon destroy that Machinedramon?!" Gatomon gasped. "Foolishness! You shall face my wrath! Heaven's Charm!" the Angewomon used its full power, "Desperado Blaster!" Paildramon shouted as the attack landed directly at Angewomon but nothing happened. "Humph. Is that all you can do DigiDestined?! Come and get me!" She taunted the DigiDestined.

Dark Palace

"Our plan is working, Master Ogudomon! With MechaAngewomon on our side those pesky DigiDestined cannot advance to the Castle!" Belphemon said. "Indeed. Now we must proceed the army who will seize Ophanimon's Castle!" the leader of the Demon Lords, Ogudomon said. "But I believe that the Child of Pureness is there. We must be cautious!" Beelzemon chimed in. "Call in Darkdramon and the Cyberdramon tribe!" Ogudomon commanded. "As you wish, my lord." Beelzemon agreed. 'No. Darkdramon! Ophanimon will—' Lilithmon thought.

Ophanimon was in trouble for Darkdramon and the Cyberdramon tribe for these are very powerful digimons.

Somewhere

"Zeke! Hurry! We must reach Ophanimon before they can get us!" a 10 year-old blonde said. "Right! Lotusmon, full speed!" Zeke, a 12 year-old girl said. "RizeGreymon! Hurry!" the blonde said. "As you wish!" RizeGreymon sped up.

Ophanimon's Castle

"Nerfetimon, tighten up the defenses. The Demon Lords could be here sooner or later. Jun, Mermaimon. Help them out. The DigiDestined will reach us!" Ophanimon commanded. "Uh? O-okay!" Jun Motomiya, Davis' sister said. "Let's go, Jun!" A blue mermaid digimon said. "Knightmons! Tighten up the defense at the Front and Back gates! Angemons, the throne room! The rest, scatter!" Nefertimon commanded. "Child of Light…. Come here immediately."…

NEXT WEEK: ANOTHER DIGIMON IS READY TO BATTLE THEM, BUT, WHO ARE THE TWO STARNGERS WHO WERE LOOKING FOR OPHANIMON? WHY IS JUN HERE? WILL THE ATTACK OF THE DEMON LORDS SUCCEED? FIND OUT NEXT TIME!
