Ladies and germs, this, is chapter two of "Hunter of Miracles REWRITE". I have noticed that some of you out there think the plot is overused. Well it's overused for a reason, because it's awesome. And I know I said in my bio that I hate people who betray others for foolish reasons, but that doesn't mean I don't like reading/writing about it.
"DIGI-FUSE/DIGIVOLUTION"
"Digimon attack"
"YELLING"
"Talking"
'Thinking'
Davis was currently watching his cousin and his basketball team, Fusion Fighters play against another team called "The Black Devils". Mikey had already told Davis about the "Fusion Fighters", the digimon army, and how his old partner, Shoutmon, is now the king of the digital world. Apparently, there is more than one digital world. Imagine that!
"Mikey!" Ewan called out.
Ewan is a blond boy with gray eyes. He usually wears a yellow button-up shirt with white pants, and gray and green sneakers with white soles
'Ewan is blocked off completely.' Mikey thought. 'Then I'm left with no other choice.'
He then bounced the ball under him, where it landed in his friend Tagiru's hands.
Tagiru is a young boy with amber eyes and brown hair with a red tuft. He wears a blue shirt with a yellow crescent moon behind a yellow star on the chest and a yellow sun on the left shoulder. He also has blue wristbands with yellow stars on them; short, folded bright ceil jeans, and blue shoes with white soles and red tongue.
"ALRIGHT! Now it's my turn to make a move." Tagiru cheered.
"Tagiru, I need you to get the ball to Ewan." Mikey called out to him. Tagiru didn't listen, and charged through.
"Tagiru stop! Don't drive to the basket!" Mikey shouted.
"I'll make sure that my shot won't be blocked!" Tagiru said. What he didn't know, was that a pair of yellow eyes were watching him.
Davis, however, did.
'A digimon?' he thought to himself. 'What's it doing here, and why is it spying on Tagiru?'
Tagiru was currently blocked by two members from the other team, but he jumped over them, ready to make the basket.
"HERE WE GO!" He yelled.
Unfortunately, he overestimated his jump, and face planted into the backboard, and dropped the ball. Luckily, Mikey caught it, and made the basket.
Later on, Tagiru was lying on a bench, with two bandages on his face that made an "X" and a towel on his forehead. He then noticed the scoreboard.
"See that Tagiru? You guys won!" Davis exclaimed.
"We won? We won! This is incredible!" Tagiru cheered. He then drew a star on his duffle bag. "Let's see, this gonna be my 26th win already."
Then, a girl named Mami dumped a bottle of water onto his head.
Mami is a red headed Airu that wears a sky blue shirt with blue edges. She also wears a white vest with two yellow buttons, purple shorts, violet belt, and white and purple sneakers with dark pink laces.
"Hey, what did you do that for Mami?" Tagiru asked.
"You passed out after your clumsy attempt at dunking dummy! Mikey and Mr. Ewan won the second half without your help!" Mami ranted.
"She called you Mr." Mikey said to Ewan.
"Don't mind her Mikey. You made a pretty bad call giving Tagiru the ball." Ewan said.
"Really?" Mikey asked. "Well no one was guarding him at the time. That maybe he could think of something."
"Hold it! Don't you think it's weird to call a classmate "Mr."?" Tagiru asked Mami.
"He kinda has a point." Davis said to Mami, pointing his thumb at Tagiru.
"And besides, seeing Tagiru like that, it's a familiar feeling. It's like being with my old teammates." Mikey said wistfully.
"Teammates?" Ewan asked.
"See you later!" Mikey said. He then turned to where Davis was. "Hey Davis, you coming?"
"I'll catch up with you later." Davis said with a smile.
"Alright. See you at home!" Mikey said as he started to walk away.
"Mikey." Ewan said to himself.
Meanwhile, in another part of town, a cyan shadow dashed through an alley, near where Mikey was.
"There he is! Don't let him get away!" a voice called, as another shadow dashed over the roof tops.
Mikey looked on in confusion, then ran after them. That is, until he was stopped by a hand on his chest.
"Mikey Kudo. I strongly suggest that you stay out of this. Heed my words." The owner of the hand said.
It was a young teenage boy with pale skin, carefully styled light grey hair, green eyes. He wears a purple shirt under a fitted black jacked closed with a white button, a black belt with a silver buckle, black pants that end just over his ankles and black boots with zippers at the sides.
This was Ryouma Mogami.
"How did you know my name?" Mikey asked.
"Oh I know about everything you've done. You are a very special one, there is absolutely no denying that." He said, before removing his hand from Mikey's chest. "I'm sure you'll notice a disturbance to have been starting today." He said. "Soon, the hunt will finally begin."
Having said that, Ryouma left in a flash of light.
"WAIT!" Mikey yelled, trying to stop him. He had so many questions. How did this kid know about his past, and what did he mean by the hunt will soon begin?
"What on earth is happening here?" he asked to himself.
Meanwhile, Tagiru was playing a game pinball, and Davis was competing against another kid in a motorcycle racing game.
While Tagiru lost at his game, Davis beat the other kid. The two shook hands, and the other kid left.
"Aw, it's already over? I can't believe I lost again." Tagiru moaned. "I wish there was someplace where I could easily outdo Mikey."
"Keep dreaming Tagiru. You and Mikey don't have the same skills." Ewan said.
"Why are you here Ewan? What is a top student like you doing here spending time at the arcade center?" Tagiru asked suspiciously.
"Even nerds need a break some time Tagiru." Davis teased.
"That's ri- HEY!" Ewan said when he realized what Davis said.
"Gotcha!" Davis laughed.
"Like I was saying, I was thinking or participating in the card game tournament that starts today."
"That sounds like fun, let's have a quick match." Tagiru suggested.
"Not a chance! How can you beat me at card games when you can't even do that in basketball? Maybe after a century." Ewan said.
"Care to say that again!? You're getting on my nerves." Tagiru said angrily.
"It's you who's getting on my nerves." Ewan growled. "You don't even know the story of the "Fusion fighters" team. You even take after Mikey down to his goggles."
"You shut up! You have a problem with that!? I see myself becoming a superstar like Mikey someday, I'm going to need these goggles with me!" Tagiru said angrily.
Davis was about to intervene, when he, Tagiru and Ewan felt something was wrong.
"What's going on?" Ewan asked.
Tagiru then noticed something. A shadow was watching him.
"Let go of me already Tagiru!" Ewan said. "What's wrong with you?"
Tagiru started to approach the shadow, and it smiled at him. It then disappeared when a person walked past it.
"What's up?" Ewan asked.
"I think I saw something there." Tagiru replied.
"Did it have yellow eyes and look like a small dragon?" Davis asked.
"Yeah, how did you know?" Tagiru said.
"I saw it earlier, but I wasn't sure what to do." Davis said, rubbing the back of his head sheepishly.
Just then, another kid bumped into Tagiru.
It was a young teenage boy with light skin, straight dark blue and brown eyes. He wears a turquoise shirt under a brown sweater with a grey hood, a large pocket at the bottom front, a square emblem with red lines and white and blue triangles on the left breast, and a round blue patch on the left sleeve. He also wears yellow pants that end just above his ankles, grey socks and brown shoes with khaki soles. On his head, he wears an orange and maroon paperboy hat.
This was Ren Tobari.
"Don't stand in the middle of the way." He said rudely.
"You were the one who bumped into me! You watch where you're going!" Tagiru said hotly.
"Look, I really don't have time for this right now. If you want a fight, it has to wait." Ren said before he took off. Ewan and Davis noticed a familiar device in the kids' hand. It was a grey fusion loader!
"Hey, wait up!" Tagiru shouted, before he took off after him. Davis ran after Tagiru, while Ewan just stood there shocked.
Tagiru and Davis ran until they lost sight of the kid.
"There he is."
"He should be here somewhere."
"THERE!"
Tagiru and Davis then notice a flash of light from behind a door, and ran towards it. Ewan ran to where they were a moment later.
"Tagiru! Davis!" he shouted.
When Tagiru and Davis were on the other side of the door, they saw a flash of light.
"Hold on, wait a second!" Davis shouted.
"You're not getting away!" Tagiru said.
The unlikely duo then ran through the portal.
"Tagiru! Davis!" Ewan called out. But the portal was already closed.
"Oh no." he whispered. "I have to tell Mikey right away!"
Back with Davis and Tagiru, they had just gotten through the portal. They stumbled a little bit after the landing, but other than that, they were just fine.
They took in their surroundings, and were confused. It looked like the street the arcade was on, but everything was covered in moss, and the sky was red.
"What's this?" Tagiru asked.
"I don't know." Davis said.
"Wait, we're only outside the arcade center, right?" Tagiru asked.
"Somehow, I don't think so." Davis said.
"What did we get ourselves into?" Tagiru asked Davis, who just shrugged.
They then saw three kids. There was Ryouma, Ren, and there was also a girl.
She was a young teenage Airu with blonde hair and light skin. She had two pigtails on the side of her face held up by four pink bear heads, two on each side. She wore a pink coat with to pink cats on it over a white shirt with horizontal stripes. She wore a pink skirt with white polka dots that went down to her thighs. She wore pink boots with pink frills on the top.
This was Airu Suzaki.
Tagiru palmed his fist when he saw the guy who ran into him earlier.
"Now I've got you three." He muttered.
Suddenly, two shadows tackled Davis and Tagiru to the ground, and hid them behind a car.
Ren turned around at the noise.
"Something wrong Ren?" Ryouma asked.
"Nothing. I just thought I saw something." Ren answered.
"Maybe it's that cute kid I was going after." Airu wondered out loud.
"If you don't shut up, they'll find us." One of the shadows said with his paw over Tagiru's mouth. "If they do find us, I won't be able to witness the fight that's about to happen."
"Yeah Davis, keep it down." The other one said.
"Veemon?" Davis asked.
"Yeah it's me. I'll explain later." Veemon said.
Tagiru looked at Davis confused.
"I'll explain later." Davis said.
"What's wrong with you? You're acting as if this is your first time seeing a digimon." The other digimon said.
This digimon's overall build is very similar to Veemon's, but has blue eyes, a small pair of yellow wings, and is covered with short purple fur. He wears a red vest, a white X scar on his forehead and a hammer-like tail that can be extended at long distance for use as a melee weapon. On his tail is the "Kinkoji".
Tagiru nodded.
"Hey look, I lured these guys here for you. I wanted you guys to see this." The digimon said.
Tagiru still stared at the digimon in shock, while Davis and Veemon were paying attention to the trio ahead of them.
"Don't stare at me. Look at them." The digimon ordered, and turned Tagiru's head so it was facing the other kids.
They then heard a loud growling sound. It belonged to a digimon called MetalTyrannomon.
MetalTyrannomon is a cyborg dinosaur digimon with grey skin, dark grey pieces of metal all over his body, several wires that wrapped around him, and blue eyes.
"This place is his territory, what do you think? He's a fearsome digimon right." the digimon asked Tagiru. "Not only is he huge, but he has an immense amount of power too."
"A digimon?" Tagiru asked. Then his eyes got huge. "A digimon! Digimon are super cools this is awesome!"
'Reminds me of me when I first met Veemon.' Davis thought. He then looked at Metaltyrannomon. 'But what's a MetalTyrannomon doing here? What's going on around here?'
"Isn't it? I knew you'd agree with me! Now watch!" the digimon said, and pushed down on Tagiru's head much to his chagrin, and to Davis's and Veemon's amusement.
"Good. MetalTyrannomon is our target. He's a strong one." Ryouma said. "Astamon, get ready to hunt!"
Suddenly, Ryouma' partner attacked, and threw MetalTyrannomon off of his perch.
Astamon is a digimon wearing a grey cloak over a blue pinstripe suit, white gloves, a red scarf, black boots with three spikes coming out of the toes. He had a gun holster inside his cloak where it held a machine gun. Coming out of his shoulder blades were two purple bat wings. He wore a mask that looked like a wolf with two horns coming out the top.
"Wow, this is just like watching a movie." Tagiru said in awe.
"This movie better have popcorn." Davis joked.
"I know right?" the digimon said with a smirk.
Astamon continued his assault on MetalTyrannomon, shooting his machine gun at him, and kicking him in the face.
"They knocked that guy off of his feet, that's a good one!" Tagiru cheered.
'Just what I need. Your help.' The other digimon thought with a smirk.
"Capture him!" the Ryouma ordered, while Astamon was hanging onto MetalTyrannomon's head.
"They really caught him!" Tagiru exclaimed.
"Did you see that? The power of digimon. The power of humans. Putting these two together can create a power unimaginable hard to beat." The other digimon said. "And that's exactly what I want."
"I wouldn't count out MetalTyrannomon out yet." Veemon said.
"He's so strong, he can resist our power." The Ryouma muttered. "Hold him down!"
The other kids used their fusion loaders to summon more capture rings to try and defeat MetalTyrannomon.
"Are they going to be alright? He's so strong!" Tagiru said.
"I wish I had that much power. I really want to hunt as well." The digimon said.
"Looks kind of fun." Veemon commented.
Just as Veemon predicted earlier, MetalTyrannomon broke free, and caused a huge amount of dust and wind to fly around.
"This is way too intense!" Tagiru said.
MetalTyrannomon then took off, and jumped from building to building.
"He got away." Ryouma muttered.
"You almost caught him." Airu said.
"I didn't expect him to be that strong." Ren said.
"Hey you!" Tagiru said.
The trio then turned around, and saw an excited Tagiru, and a very curious Davis.
"This is way to awesome, what kind of game is this!?" Tagiru asked excitedly.
"You'll have to excuse him. He gets VERY excited." Davis said, rubbing the back of his head embarrassed.
"Oh no, more weird looking kids have managed to show up." Ren said, tilting his hat down slightly.
"A game you say?" Ryouma asked. "THIS isn't a game. This is a digimon hunt."
"A digimon hunt? THAT'S SO COOL! Where do I sign up this, I want to join as well." Tagiru said.
"Count me in!" Davis said.
"Forget about that." Airu said while she rubbed herself against Tagiru. "Do you know where the digimon I was after went? He's purple and he's really cute."
"Oh no." The digimon muttered.
"I have no clue. The only ones I've seen so far are the really big ones." Tagiru said, jumping out of her grip.
"You're absolutely useless." She said, shoving him to the side, and walking back to her teammates.
"For a nice looking Airu you're pretty rude." Tagiru said, and the digimon breathed a sigh of relief.
"Just like I told you, don't judge a book by its cover." Davis said, remembering his old team, and seething internally.
"Whatever, just get out of my sight." The Airu sneered.
"If you were a guy, I'd slug you." Davis said angrily.
"All right now." Ryouma said, acting as peacekeeper. "If they were able to get inside of Digi-Quartz, that means they have what it takes to join. But you have to remember this, if you are going to join the hunt, you are going to need a digimon to serve as your partner."
The dust then cleared, revealing Astamon, and two more digimon.
The one behind Ren was a vampire/imp themed pale-skinned Digimon who wears a black mask with red and green eye markings on it. Embedded on his palms are a set of eyeballs whose pupils match the eye markings. Though he has wings, they are connected by a gold trinket and rest around his waist.
The one behind Airu was a black, stubby furred opossum with a white face, wearing large red gloves, boots, and cap. She carries balloons that enable her to float around.
"The strong digimon usually get paired with the strong hunters." Ryouma said, and started to walk away. "We'll see you around rookies."
"This is just too awesome." Tagiru said with a determined look on his face.
"Do you really want to join the hunt that badly?" the digimon asked, while he lay on his stomach, and Veemon leaned against the car door.
"I do. I really do. I want it so badly I'm getting chills." Tagiru said with a fire in his eyes.
"I know what you mean. I always thought it kind of stunk that I only had Veemon, but this could be a good way to assemble the best digimon I can find." Davis said.
'Perfect. Now my dream is within my reach.' The digimon thought.
'It's good to see Davis so excited again." Veemon thought.
"Hey, why don't we team up? My name is Gumdramon." The now named Gumdramon said.
"Sure, I'm Tagiru Akashi." Tagiru said, reaching out to shake Gumdramon's hand, only to realize that he was taller than Gumdramon.
"Hey, you're a lot smaller than I thought. You sure you have what it takes to team up with me Gumdramon?" Tagiru asked.
"I MAY BE SMALL, BUT I'M TO THE DIGIMON HERE AS THE "WILD CHILD"!" Gumdramon yelled.
"The only big thing about you is your ego!" Tagiru said.
"Very interesting, you two are quite alike." A voice said.
Tagiru, Gumdramon, Davis, and Veemon turned to the owner of the voice.
It belonged to an elderly man, and he used a walking stick to move about. He wears a blue jacket with rolled up sleeves, and wears a red shirt underneath. He also wore green shorts held up by a black belt with a silver belt buckle, and red sandals. He had a visor on his head with various colored arrows decorating it.
"Veemon, good work on meeting up with Davis." The old man said.
"Thanks, but why did you bring me here?" Veemon asked.
"I'll explain soon enough." The old man said. He then pulled out a black fusion loader with golden buttons.
"Time Shift!" he said, and took the group back to the human world.
"Where are we?" Tagiru asked.
"The real world." The old man answered. "We're in your world right now."
"Where are Gumdramon and Veemon?" Davis asked.
"They're fine, you just can't see them right now." The old man said. "The time lapse is different in the human world and the digital world. They're in an air space called "Digi-Quartz". It's very near, and they are oblivious to each other's existence."
"Who are you?" Tagiru asked.
"I'm just an old clock store owner." The man said.
Inside the shop, the old man sat behind a table, and put two blank fusion loaders out on the table.
"If you want to hunt digimon you need to enter the world of Digi-Quartz. You are going to need this fusion loader in order to do that." The old man said. He then turned to Davis. "I know that you have your own digivice already, but you will also need a fusion loader."
"I understand." Davis said.
"Fusion loader?" Tagiru asked. He then got a greedy look in his eyes. "This is the same thing those other hunters had with them." He then reached out to grab one, but the old man grabbed his hand before he could.
"Could I have it?" Tagiru asked.
"Are you sure you boys are prepared for all of this?" he asked with concern in his voice.
"Prepared? For what?" Tagiru asked.
"Once you gain possession of a fusion loader, there is no turning back. This is a one way street. Digimons are monsters. They hunger for power. And they are immensely attracted to the power that is inside humans. And if necessary, these monsters will attack humans without having to think twice, just to get their hands on that power." The old man explained. "Are you really sure that you're ready to fight digimons that are like that?"
"No offense, but not all digimon are like that." Davis argued.
"True, but most of the ones in Digi-quartz are." The old man said, agreeing with Davis.
"Yes I am." Tagiru said. "I can do anything that excites me. I'm so ready for anything."
The minute he said that, the fusion loader he was touching glowed, and turned crimson.
Davis then picked up the other one, and it turned blue with orange buttons.
"The color on one changed to crimson, and the other one into the same colors as the digi-eggs or both courage and friendship." The old man said to himself. "It seems like I'll be interference with these hunts."
That was when a digimon that looked like a giant clock appeared behind him.
"Chi chi chi chi chi chi." The digimon said.
Meanwhile, Mikey was using his fusion loader to try and find out what was going on.
"It's no use." He said. "It's not working at all. I have a bad feeling about this."
Suddenly, a crowd gathered around a building that had a glowing window, curious as to what was happening.
"Mikey!" Ewan called out, as he ran towards him.
"Ewan." Mikey said.
"You're not going to believe what happened to Davis and Tagiru." Ewan said.
Suddenly, everyone heard a loud screeching noise, and they covered their ears because it was very painful.
Mikey used his fusion loader to figure out what was going on, and saw MetalTyrannomon jumping from building to building.
"A digimon?" he asked himself.
He then saw the retreating forms of Ryouma and Airu.
"Those three, they're here." He said to himself.
"Mikey look! There's Tagiru and Davis!" Ewan said, pointing across the street.
"There you are." Tagiru said. He then pulled out his fusion loader. "Time Shift!"
"A fusion loader?" Ewan asked.
"Tagiru and Davis have one?" Mikey asked. He then took a closer look at Tagiru's. "A crimson fusion loader, it's just like mine."
They then saw Davis and Tagiru run into the portal.
"Ewan, let's go." Mikey said, as he ran to catch up with them.
Meanwhile, Tagiru and Davis were going through the portal. When they through, Gumdramon and Veemon were right at their sides.
"Welcome to our world, Digi-Quartz." Gumdramon said.
"About time you guys showed up here." Veemon said happily, jumping up to high five Davis.
"Hey Gumdramon, there you are." Tagiru said.
"I was worried for a minute." Davis said.
"We're always together, don't worry." Gumdramon said to Tagiru.
"So where can we find our prey?" Tagiru asked.
"We're right on his trail, let's go!" Gumdramon answered, as MetalTyrannomon jumped overhead.
"Alright, we got him on the run!" Davis cheered.
"Don't let him get away!" Tagiru exclaimed.
"You got it Tagiru!" Gumdramon said.
The group was right on MetalTyrannomon's trail, and they ended up climbing over a ledge, and jumping over another.
When Davis and Tagiru jumped, they saw that the space was a lot bigger than they thought.
"It's much deeper and wider than I thought it would be!" Tagiru exclaimed. "OH NO!"
He and Davis began to fall, but were saved by Gumdramon.
"I don't believe this, you humans can't fly?" Gumdramon said in disbelief.
"OF COURSE WE CAN'T!" Tagiru and Davis shouted in unison.
"Is this human really worth my while?" Gumdramon asked. "I'll just have to see."
Gumdramon then pulled Tagiru and Davis to safety, and dragged them along as he ran.
"Uh, Gumdramon?" Veemon said.
"What?" Gumdramon asked.
Veemon pointed to the humans tied up in his tail, and Gumdramon blushed before letting them go.
"Sorry, my bad." Gumdramon said.
Davis and Tagiru nodded, letting him know they didn't mind, before they continued after MetalTyrannomon.
They kept running, until they got to the spot where they first saw MetalTyrannomon.
"I don't believe this, where did he go?" Gumdramon asked.
"It seems we lost him." Veemon said.
They then heard the sound of glass breaking.
"What's that sound?" Tagiru asked.
"LOOK, UP THERE!" Davis yelled, pointing to where MetalTyrannomon was.
MetalTyrannomon seemed to be eating data from the top of a building.
"We found MetalTyrannomon! He must really like elevated locations." Gumdramon said.
"Isn't that the big digimon those three hunters couldn't catch?" Tagiru asked nervously.
"We better get going." Gumdramon asked.
"Hey." Tagiru said, trying to stop Gumdramon from doing something stupid. Key word "trying".
Gumdramon ran up the side of the building, and jumped over MetalTyrannomon.
"I'm taking you down!" he declared, and he wrapped his tail around MetalTyrannomon, and yanked him off the building.
As MetalTyrannomon was falling, Gumdramon striked him repeatedly with his tail, but MetalTyrannomon recovered quickly, and he swiped at Gumdramon with his paw.
"Gumdramon!" Tagiru said worriedly.
"I'm not done with you yet!" Gumdramon exclaimed. "Take this! Ran-Gum Break!"
Gumdramon then rolled forward at high speeds, and hit MetalTyrannomon again, this time sending him into the ground.
"Good job Gumdramon!" Tagiru praised.
"What did I tell you? I'm the "Wild Child"!" Gumdramon exclaimed, before he ran to the other side of the battle field.
"Watch this; I'm going to show you my finishing move!" Gumdramon said, before he rolled himself in a wheel like position, and started to rotate faster and faster. "Here goes! Fire Vortex!"
Gumdramon then covered himself with fire, and rolled at MetalTyrannomon.
However, Tagiru noticed something was off.
"Oh no, after those attacks Gumdramon did to MetalTyrannomon, it looks like nothing worked." Tagiru observed. "No, it's time to jump in. Gumdramon, don't do it!"
Gumdramon was getting closer to MetalTyrannomon.
"Stop it!" Tagiru shouted.
"Only a fool would stop at this point!" Gumdramon retorted.
He then slammed his hammer into MetalTyrannomon's mouth. Unfortunately, MetalTyrannomon bit right through it, causing Gumdramon to scream in pain.
"GUMDRAMON!" Tagiru yelled, as he rushed to his friend's aid.
MetalTyrannomon was about to bite down on Gumdramon, but Tagiru saved him just in time. Unfortunately, MetalTyrannomon's jaws grazed Tagiru's back. Luckily, it only ruined his shirt, and didn't break the skin.
Tagiru and Gumdramon careened over the field, bounced off a car, and landed in the alley.
"Gumdramon, are you alright?" Tagiru asked.
"What about you Tagiru?" Gumdramon asked.
Tagiru couldn't help but chuckle as a realization came to him.
"I guess I understand now why Mikey keeps on stopping me all the time. I get so caught up that I stop seeing everything else."
Gumdramon gave a confused grunt.
"We have the same traits, you and I." Tagiru said.
"What are spouting about?" Gumdramon asked.
"Can you stand Gumdramon? Tagiru asked, offering his hand.
"DON'T TREAT ME LIKE I'M INJURED! You don't know how tough I am, do you?" Gumdramon said.
They then heard a rumbling noise coming from outside the alley.
"GUYS LOOK OUT, METALTYRANNOMON IS COMING FOR YOU!" Davis yelled from the other side of the clearing.
MetalTyrannomon then appeared at the entrance of the alley way, and tried to reach Tagiru and Gumdramon.
"GUYS! Veemon, let's give them a hand!" Davis exclaimed, as he and Veemon ran to help their friends. However, they were cut off by another digimon.
It looked like a cyborg allosaurus, with a red blade at the end of its tail. It also had red spikes down the length of its back, and a yellow line down its side. It had three yellow claws on its hands and feet. It had yellow eyes surrounded by a red crest on each side of its face. It also had a brown underside.
"Who's that digimon?" Davis asked.
"Grimlomon." Veemon said. "The sounds from the fight must've attracted him."
"Davis!" Tagiru called out.
"Don't worry about us! You get MetalTyrannomon, we got this guy!" Davis exclaimed, as he and Veemon got ready for a fight.
"Let's do it Veemon!" Davis exclaimed.
"Alright!" Veemon exclaimed.
Grimlomon roared, and fired off an attack.
"Dino Fire Breath!" he intoned, firing black flames at his enemies.
Davis and Veemon dodged the attack.
"V-Headbutt!" Veemon intoned, and head-butted Grimlomon in the face.
Back with Tagiru and Gumdramon, MetalTyrannomon was still trying to get at them.
Gumdramon then ran in front of Tagiru, with his arms spread out.
"Tagiru get back!" he said, but fell to his knee.
"Gumdramon!" Tagiru exclaimed.
"I'm sorry. Instead of the hunters hunting their prey it's the other way around." Gumdramon apologized.
"Don't give up just yet!" Tagiru scolded. "It's not over yet!"
He looked up MetalTyrannomon.
"Can you stand up?" he asked Gumdramon, who nodded. "Then we can still fight. For as long as we still have the strength to stand up, if we perish, we perish together. Is that right partner?"
"Of course partner." Gumdramon answered.
Then, a ring of data appeared around both Tagiru's and Gumdramon's wrists.
"What is this light?" Tagiru asked.
"I've heard of this. This is the light of digivolution." Gumdramon said.
"Digivolution?" Tagiru asked curiously.
"With this, your emotions will make me stronger." Gumdramon explained.
"Really? Well that's awesome. Are you ready Gumdramon?" Tagiru said.
"Yeah!" Gumdramon exclaimed.
The two then intertwined their wrists, making the light glow stronger.
"LET'S DO IT!" They yelled.
Up on a nearby building, Ryouma, Ren, and Airu were watching the two hunters battle the two dinosaurs.
"Ryouma, aren't we going to rescue those guys?" Airu asked.
"We don't have to. See that light?" Ryouma said. "That's the light of digivolution."
"But what about those other two?" Ren asked, pointing to Davis and Veemon.
"They're not far behind." Ryouma said.
Meanwhile, Davis and Veemon were battling Grimlomon.
"V-Shot!" Veemon intoned, and fired a blue ball of energy at Grimlomon.
"We got him on the ropes, let's finish him off!" Davis said.
Then data appeared around Davis's and Veemon's wrists.
They knew what to do, and they intertwined their wrists as well.
"Ready Veemon?" he asked.
"Always." Veemon answered.
Back with Tagiru and Gumdramon, Tagiru held up his fusion loader, and swung it, and energy came out of his fusion loader. It looked like a line flowing out, but it several rings around it.
"GUMDRAMON, DIGIVOLVE!" He yelled.
Gumdramon then began to glow.
The light from Tagiru and Gumdramon had gotten so powerful; it launched MetalTyrannomon into a nearby building.
"GUMDRAMON DIGIVOLVE TOO… ARRESTERDRAMON!"
Arresterdramon was much larger than Gumdramon. He looked more draconic, had open toed boots, leather pants, a red vest, larger wings, a belt buckle that looked like his scar when he was Gumdramon, a crown shaped tail, and what appears to be aviator goggles.
Davis then held up his fusion loader as well.
"VEEMON, DIGIVOLVE!"
Veemon then began to glow a golden color.
"VEEMON DIGIVOLVE TOO… MAGNAMON!"
Magnamon is a bipedal creature with blue fur that looks like a grown version of Veemon with five fingers on each hand. It wears armor on its face, chest, waist, arms, and feet, all of which are colored gold. On its loin-guard is the Crest of Miracles.
"Wow, haven't seen him in a while." Said a very surprised Davis.
With Arresterdramon, MetalTyrannomon had gotten back on his feet, but he was a little dazed from the attack. Arresterdramon used this opportunity to take to the skies. He then used his tail lift up MetalTyrannomon, and flung him into the air.
"This power building inside of me, let's see how well you take it! Mach flicker!" Arresterdramon said, as he struck MetalTyrannomon with a flurry of punches.
"Arresterdramon, I can feel the heat of your power!" Tagiru exclaimed.
"Let's finish this right now! Prism Garret!" Arresterdramon intoned.
"Attack!" Tagiru commanded.
Arresterdramon then surrounded himself with purple energy, and six silhouettes of himself came out, and struck MetalTyrannomon with their tails. Now defeated, the cyborg dinosaur went into Tagiru's fusion loader.
Arresterdramon then jumped to the ground, where de-digivolved into Gumdramon.
"I got him." Gumdramon said happily.
A 3-d cube appeared over Tagiru's fusion loader, and a picture of MetalTyrannomon appeared inside of it.
"We did it, we caught him!" Tagiru cheered.
"He he, so now this officially makes me one of the hunters." Gumdramon said.
"Digimon capture complete!" Tagiru said. He then noticed Davis and Magnamon were still battling Grimlomon.
"They're still fighting?" Tagiru asked worriedly.
"Should we help?" Gumdramon asked.
"Don't worry about us, we got this guy!" Davis called out.
"Dino Fire Breath!" Grimlomon intoned, trying to attack again.
"Plasma Shoot!" Magnamon intoned, firing a shot of ball-shaped plasma at Grimlomon. The attack cut straight through Grimlomon's fire, and exploded in his mouth.
Grimlomon wasn't out for the count just yet.
"Sword Tail!" He roared, trying to slash Magnamon with the blade on his tail.
Magnamon effortlessly grabbed the blade with hands, smirking at Grimlomon as if to say "Is that all you got?"
He then swung the allosaurus around, and threw Grimlomon into the sky.
"Shining Gold Solar Storm!" Magnamon intoned, as he rapidly compressed space, then immediately and explosively expanded it, sweeping away Grimlomon with a golden laser beam.
When the attack struck Grimlomon, a purple ring formed around him, sending his data into Davis's fusion loader.
"Digimon capture complete!" Davis called out, his fusion loader showing a purple cube with Grimlomon inside of it.
Magnamon then turned back into Veemon.
The two hunters and their digimon then cheered at their success.
"I can't believe they got those cute things for themselves, and a digivolution is anything but cute." Airu said.
"Then take him for yourself." Ren snarked.
"That was entertaining." Ryouma said. He then turned to walk away, but looked back at Tagiru, Gumdramon, Davis, and Veemon. "Welcome to the world of time hunting." He said happily.
What they didn't know, was the old clock shop man and Clockmon were watching the whole thing.
"Let's go home." Clockmon said, as the two went back to their shop.
"Not bad for a first battle." Gumdramon complimented.
"Not for me and Davis. We've been in tons of battles, haven't we?" Veemon said to Davis.
"You better believe it." Davis said.
"My heart was pounding like crazy. Let's continue hunting amazing digimons together, okay partner?" Tagiru said.
"Yeah!" Gumdramon said.
"Tagiru! Davis!"
The two hunters looked up and saw Mikey and Ewan with their own fusion loaders.
"Mikey, Ewan." Davis said.
"We were watching you guys." Mikey said.
"You both have fusion loaders too?" Tagiru asked.
"Earlier, we saw your attempt to capture a particular strong digimon in this air space." Mikey said.
"Mikey, can you hear me?" a voice asked from his fusion loader.
"Shoutmon!" Mikey exclaimed.
Gumdramon immediately hid behind Tagiru's legs.
"Shoutmon? Who's that?" Tagiru asked.
"He's the king of the digimon." Gumdramon said nervously.
That will be all for now. In the next chapter, Davis will go on his own hunt, and capture a digimon from Mikey's past. Can you guess who it is? Hint: This digimon was a foe.
I also want to say that I'm not proud of how I introduced Grimlomon. I just really wanted Davis to capture him in this chapter.
I'd like to thank the following authors/guests who sent in digimon for Davis to hunt:
Greninja: Pegasusmon
Guest 1: LadyDevimon, RedLadyDevimon, BlackGreymon, Ogremon, SlushAngemon, SkullGreymon, Devimon, IceDevimon, MetalDevimon (Not sure who that is), and GigaSeadramon.
xXKingXx: Dynasmon
arkleo19: Jesmon, Boltmon, Craniamon, BanchoLeomon and Agunimon.
Zero Slash One: Numemon, Wizardmon, Salamon, and Renamon.
Mistress1296: Wingdramon
I will consider which ones will be hunted, and who will not be hunted.
Davis's collection: Veemon, Grimlomon.
