Cry of the Chimeras
"Screams echoed through the halls, some weren't even human; other's sounded like children.
But they didn't even warrant a look from a man, his white lab coat matching the walls of the building.
Beside him was his assistant, a woman wearing a similar lab coat over a white button shirt and black pencil skirt.
Her brown hair kept in a bun, with stray bangs hanging here and there.
In her arm's she held a clipboard with several paper's and photo's.
"How are the test subjects?" The man asked the woman as they stopped at the first room.
"As well as they would be, Dr. Ashigara" the woman awnsered as they looked at the one sided window.
It was made with the same materials, one would use in a police interrogation rooms one viewing glass.
Inside was a young girl who looked around eight, she was only allowed to wear a white hospital gown; only making the cuts and bruises on her body stand out more.
Currently she was chained to the ground, her arms and legs kept her from standing let alone sitting.
Beside her inside a cage was her partner, XT79 or Elecmon as the creature was known.
He was currently bashing his head against his cage, a collar around his neck cancled out his powers; it was the first thing the scientist had decided to focus on.
Before going forward with the experiment's, a downed monster was a harmless monster.
"Sedate XT79, we can't have him breaking out again" Ashigara said, he sounded bored.
The woman nodded, pressing a button hidden under her coat.
It led to the control room, her co-workers got to work.
A metal spike was lowered from the ceiling, causing Elecmon to focus on it and not notice a panel open with a syringe.
It was quickly stabbed into his leg as it quickly took effect.
"The Vademon's intelligence with machines has been valuable, make sure he is rewarded" not all digimon were experiments, those who had uses were put to work.
"Of course sir, progress with ZT43 has been going well if you wish to proceed" The woman spoke, leading them to another room.
In that one it wasn't a rookie that was trapped, it was an ultimate level.
The digimon was wearing what looked like a black straight jacket, it was made with the same power dampers as the collar.
Her wings had been severed from her body long ago, the fallen angel was now truely fallen.
"ZT43 or Ladydevimon has finally stopped resisting, ever since we put her human in a coma she has become rather desponate" The woman said writing things down.
With Ladydevimon laid a teenage boy on a table, like the girl he wore a hospital gown and looked worse than the girl.
He was emancipated, it was hard to see skin from bruises and blood and was barely clinging to life; if the slow beep from a heart monitor said anything.
"We are planning to test her combat abilities in the arena, we are sure she will obey this time" the woman smiled coldly.
"Excellent work Fuji" Ashigara praised as he looked at a more restricted corridor" and what of experiment's XL666 and XL626?" He asked his assistant.
Fuji smiled" they seem to be holding on better than the last one's" she moved some stray hair from her eye's.
"Let us see then" Ashigara said as they had to enter several security code's.
This was the facilities ultimate goal, only few knew of this experiment.
Inside was a large room that kept several beings, the two they focused on were two tubes in the center glowing blue; unlike the other's that glowed red or black.
One read XL666 the other XL626, the panel showed what made up the creatures growing.
50% Homo Sapien/50% Digital Data, name Paraimon.
The girl floating inside the large tube looked human at first glance, but soon one would notice differences.
While her body was still underdeveloped, the base human having only been 15 or 16 it made the white dress she wore look rather inappropriate for her age.
Her long brown hair floated in the liquid as her eye's were wrapped in bandages, not their doing Venusmon the base digimon had them over her eye's as well.
Despite her age her skin even in the blue liquid held a goddly glow, while more bandages wrapped around her arms and legs.
"Paraimon is growing wonderfully, when captured we discovered this girl has been with her partner since after the orginal attacks; we now know the perpetrator as Malomyotismon or as he was known back then Venommyotismon" Fuji explained.
"And her backstory concerns me why?" he lifted a brow at Fuji.
"Because that bond grew for years, we believe that's why these two are progressing so well" Fuki explained showing him XL626 now.
50% Homo Sapien/50% Digital Data, name AgiWulfmon
Inside was a boy who looked like he was around 16 or 17, his body was covered in blue armor that seemed to warp around him; as if someone tried to fit a piece into a mold that didn't fit.
His sleeping face was still visible, the wolf helmet only protecting his head and covered most of his blond hair.
Where his fingernails should have been, were large razor sharp silver claws; the fingers were constantly bleeding the boy's body rejecting the digital data.
"He seems to be showing the same problems as the previous one's, but is far more developed than previous specimens" Ashigara appreciated his creations.
"He and his partner have been together for two years yet shared a close bond, it has come to our attention that this bond is what we should focus on" Fuji explained" we've used it before to control the digimon, but now I believe we can start on our first serious test" the woman nodded as she showed him a folder.
Ashigara looked at it, it held the names and pictures of the first and second generation of digidestine.
"Capture one of the chosen yes, but we should take one from both" he said as Fuji tilted her head.
"Why? Isn't one sufficient?" She asked.
"These are different they hold something we barely understand, these crest and from what we've seen the second generation holds more power than the first" the smile he gave Fuji was aything but pleasant.
"I suppose that makes sense, but which one's?" She point at a picture of Tai and Agumon" he would seem more logical as the first leader but the girl with the Palmon could also be of use" her mega form Rosemon was something she herself wanted to play with.
What data they had on the digimon said the pink orb between Rosemon's breast, is what allowed her to stay young and beautiful.
If Fuji could replicate that effect, human's would never have to grow old again; she wouldn't loose her good looks to time.
No woman would, maybe they should take the girl of sincerity.
"I know what your thinking Fuji and I have better candidate's in mind" he showed her a picture of Kari and Gatomon.
"The girl of light? Why her, her digimon is just an angel type with only healing attributes we could replicate" Fuji said not seeing the bigger picture.
"She is much more than healing, she has two final evolved forms and is able to evolve further with the X data we discovered in that Dorumon" Ashigara began to go on a rant" and did you forget the girl herself has abilities, she could be one of the keys to creating the perfect bio hybrid! Half human and half digimon, if we use the partner bond the applications for combat would be limitless!" He laughed sounding very unhinged.
"And we care for that why!?" Fuji asked only to be painfully hit over the head.
Ashigara often did this when she asked a stupid question, she deserved it for being an idiot.
"Other countries have the same test subject's as us, it's only a matter of time before the American's or Russia's begin to make the same connections" he snapped at Fuji, clearly paranoid.
Fuji just nodded, these children weren't human and the digimon weren't even truly alive.
They existed for the same reason she did, to serve a better and answer to order's.
"What about the second subject" Fuji asked trying not to rub her head, he'd only hit her again.
"The one that holds miracles" he awnsered simply as Fuji stared.
"But that subjects digimon! It is one of the most versatile since we began to study the Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon!" Fuji exclaimed.
"Exactly, can you imagine what we could do with one who has so many forms!" He smiled excited.
"Yes but besides the Wargreymon, he's also one of the strongest digimon the chosen own" Fuji said wondering if they should take the risk.
Ashigara just gave her a chilling look" and that boy of his will make an excellent test subject for the hybrid program" actually so would the girl of light, he never tried to fuse a crest holder before.
"What should we do then, fake protection? Reporter's, fan's?" Fuji listed off potential sneaky ways.
"Fuji you think to small, we want them but not through something as simple trickery" he looked at AgiWulfmon and Paraimon" I think it's time our dear children had a test run" he smirked looking at the tubes.
"But they still need tim-" she felt herself hit the ground, her own clipboard had been used to hit her.
"I DIDN'T ASK FOR YOUR OPINION!" He yelled at the woman" We will release them tonight!" That was the end of that.
Fuji watched him leave as she slowly stood up, her ear was bleeding from the force she had been hit with; she absent mindedly made a note to see their doctor, their for humans doctor.
Looking at Paraimon and AgiWulfmon, something seem to see through the haze of obedience and self wants; were they doing the right thing?
No of course they were how foolish was she, to think of digimon and their chosen as anything but experiments was absurd.
Fuji didn't realize that once long ago, she to had been an experiment; one that Ashigara decided to keep.
She began to get the two bio hybrids ready for release, this would be their first and possibly last mission; she hoped one would make it back if to see why it survived and why the other died.
"Target programming begin transmission, code word 'Behemoth' release bio hyrbids now!" Fuji finished the release code's, as the tubes began to fill with smoke and open.
It was time to begin the true experiment.
(Odabia)
They had returned a few days ago, everyone was off doing their own thing.
Avoiding people or in Tai and Matts case trying not to slug the bastards, who even badmouth their siblings.
They weren't alone in the violence, as Yolie's siblings weren't exactly happy at the treatment their sister recived.
Even Jun had to be stopped by her own partner Falcomon, the ninja bird digimon telling her it wouldn't fix anything; her parent's agreeing with Falcomon.
None of the chosens family were happy about this, but even being their parents did nothing.
If anything people either blamed them for their children existing or just the simple fact of not raising them correctly.
It was now well known never to badmouth around Mrs.Kamiya her cooking was deadly, and her meatloaf a brick like weapon.
Of course many of the other parents were more controlled physically, but that didn't stop the anger at those people; who scorned their children for saving them who risked their lives for them.
In the park sitting alone under a tree, being purposely avoided was Cody.
His dinosaur like partner was asleep beside him or so he thought, as the boy was reading something Davis had given him two years ago.
He had been annoyed at being given a comic, he wasn't a little kid; okay that was a lie.
But he wasn't immature enough to read it, though these day's he took anything to be distracted.
He didn't want to admit it, but the comic felt like it currently paralleled the digidestine's current situation.
It was about a girl who got superpowers and at first used them for her personal gain, but after an accident decides to do good.
Only for people to see her as a threat despite saving their lives many time, the comic even had it's own version of Miguri Higurashi; who badmouth the girl everytime in the news.
It seemed no matter what the girl would do people would see her as a threat, it was bad enough to have supernatural enemies to deal with; but also human one's.
Cody and the other's knew that feeling all to well.
He was so enthralled by the comic he missed movement in front of him, until.
"Cody? Are you reading a comic?" The boy looked up to see Kari, smiling gently if wearily.
He blushed in embarrassment as he hid the comic quickly" No!" He said, knowing she already knew.
"It's okay, I won't tell the other's" she said sitting down next to the boy, Gatomon was with her to and sat next to the girl.
"Thanks, Davis would never let me live it down" Cody sighed then regretted his words, noticing the sad look on Kari's face; but before he could apologise.
"It's fine Cody, I'm just worried for him and you and well everyone on the team" Kari said, unable to sit her head in her knees and cursed choosing a skirt to wear today.
"He has been distant" Cody said.
Kari nodded "TK's been so angry lately, I found him fighting someone again" the girl of light sighed, when had things gone so wrong?
"How many does that make?" Cody asked her.
"This week, eight" Gatomon spoke up, keeping watch for people like she always did.
Ready to pounce any who dared hurt Kari and Cody, she knew the little armodillo was faking sleep but she said nothing about it.
"And Yolie?" Kari asked, If anything the girl no longer even cared how she treated people.
"Twelve, today" Cody said, Yolie had seemed to have lost any self control she used to have.
And just let people know what she thought of them.
"What about Davis and Ken?" If anyone would know about those two it would be Kari.
"Ken? He's with my brother in the digital world, I think their blowing stuff up in the valley of no return" Kari shrugged, it was a barren desert, Wargreymon and Grandkuwagamon wouldn't damange anything but the landscape.
She had tried it once, it was a great stress reliever for their digimon's persisting anger at other humans.
"As for Davis, Jun told me she saw him fly off somewhere with Ulforceveedramon" she had a good idea where they were, but wasn't about to bother them.
And it wasn't like Davis would even bother talking, it scared her honestly; watching her friends and herself change like this.
The Davis she knew hated to be alone and never shut up, this new one rarely spoke and no longer cared about anyone.
TK was now easily provoked and Patamon never even tried to stop him.
Yolie no longer cared how she treated people and Hawkmon would rarely tell her to calm down.
Ken was honestly starting to remind her of the digimon emperor, just without the take over the world part; but viewing humanity as worms and beneath him part.
And Cody who she could easily talk to about how these things affected him, would never speak about it; he was slowly loosing his trust in people and hardening around rhe edges.
When she saw that comic it gave her some hope that the real Cody is still there, albeit hidden but still there.
And herself, she found her once optimistic view and caring nature fading; reserving it only for her friends.
And seeing that the world didn't have as much light as she thought it once did.
As Kari brooded and Cody secretly wanted to go back to his comic, but then felt guilty for wanting Kari to leave; they didn't notice they were being watched.
Standing on a nearby building a tan girl stood near the edge, her body while underdeveloped looked like it had been sculpted by gods; her skin holding a glow reserved for a goddess.
A white dress hung loosely from her body, white bandages wrapped around her eyes, arms, fingers, legs and bare feet.
Her long auburn hair blew behind her, giving her a sort of mystical appearance.
Beside her stood a tall pale boy in blue wolf like armor, it looked like someone had tried to make it fit and had welded and pounded it until it did.
Pieces of his blond hair came out of the helemt, a blood red cape swayed behind him; as his armorless finger's bled blood onto his claws.
Despite his blank face one could almost see horrible pain in his eye's, physical and mental.
AgiWulfmon saw their target the girl, while Paraimon easily could track the miracle bearer; her lack of eyesight was actually her power.
They nodded at each other and jumped, both going towards their intended target.
Watching them from the shadows was a large white grin.
Can anyone guess what comic I refrenced and what disorder Fuji has
