I do not own anything
It had been a week since Armadillo Fire incident and Daisuke was at Vista Point once again. It was a beautiful day with clear blue skies.
"Hey, Daisuke, we've been here for a few hours. Don't you think we should go now?" V-mon asked.
"Yeah, I think your right." Daisuke said as he lifted himself up and started leaving when.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" A man with a pair of wings suddenly fell from the sky.
"Whoa, what was that?" Daisuke said as he and V-mon headed towards the man. "Hey, you okay?" Daisuke asked.
"Um, yes I'm fine." The man said. He then took of his pack that had wings.
"Um…excuse me sir but what are those?" Daisuke asked with a light in his eyes, along with V-mon, as children that had just seen their favorite new toys.
"…Please don't stare; I don't like it when people stare." The man said.
"Oh, sorry." Daisuke replied with a cheapish smile.
"Are you absolutely sure you're okay? No broken bones or anything? That was quite a fall." V-mon said.
"Yes I am. Thank you for your concern." The man said.
"Alright then. Let's go V-mon." Daisuke said as he and V-mon left.
Daisuke and V-mon walked down the streets until they saw a familiar man checking out the truck from a week ago that Armadillo Fire took control of. The man then turned around and saw Daisuke and V-mon.
"Well if it isn't little Daisuke-san and V-mon." Eiji said. "How are you doing?"
"Hi Ogata-san." Daisuke said.
"I'm here on business today, but I can't seem to find my assistant. By the way, this is my Digimon Bakumon. Oh, there they are." Eiji said, looking at the man who Daisuke and V-mon had encountered earlier.
"Daisuke-san, V-mon, these is my assistant Zainara Satsuko and his Falcomon."
"Hey, you're that guy from earlier." Daisuke said.
"You two know each other?" Bakumon asked.
"Actually…" Satsuko explained the whole incident from earlier in which he met Daisuke and V-mon.
"You were experimenting by yourself? Don't you think that is a little reckless?" Eiji asked.
"Don't worry I'm fine. Let's just get to work." Satsuko said as he went to check the truck.
"Is it just me or is he really anti-social?" Daisuke said.
"Yeah, but it really isn't his fault. He used to work at NAZA just like me, but there was a small incident and he quit." Eiji said. "But anyway, who don't you come down to my lab tomorrow? So, what do you say?"
"Sure, we would love to." Daisuke said.
"Since tomorrow is a holiday, it's perfect." Bakumon said.
"We'll be there." V-mon said.
"Great then, glad we settled that." Eiji said as Daisuke and V-mon started leaving and he returned his attention to the truck.
(Later that night)
"Phew, I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel." Satsuko said as he looked at his Flap-Pack, the invention which he created with the purpose of flying.
"Working late again?" Eiji asked.
"Y-yes." Satsuko said.
"You're really into your work, huh? Good for you." Bakumon said with a smile.
"Well, we better head home." Eiji said.
"Yes. Please get some rest Ogata-san." Satsuko said.
"Please, there is no need for you to be so formal. I'm your friend Satsuko-san. We've known each other for a long time. I treasure making friends with people more than any success I could have at work." Eiji said. "Well, I better get home or else I'll be late. See ya."
(A few hours later)
"Satsuko, are you sure you can trust Eiji?" Falcomon asked.
"Friend…maybe he'll be my friend. But what if…what if it happens all over again? What if he betrays me?" Satsuko whispered.
"Hehehe…You're in pain aren't you?" A voice said.
"Who's there?" Falcomon said.
A swan made of white armor and blue energy suddenly appeared.
"How do you do?" The swan asked.
"AAAAAHHHH!" Satsuko and Falcomon screamed.
"Don't be afraid. I understand how you feel." The swan said.
"Who're you?" Satsuko asked.
"Easy. As I just said, I understand your pain. You can't trust deeply in others. Because of this your heart aches severely. And the source is something in your past. Am I correct?" The swan said.
"…Yes, that's exactly it. I had a horrible experience." Satsuko said. "All because I believed in someone. But how did you know?"
"Like I said, I understand you." The swan replied. "Come on, tell me about this horrible event."
"It was back when I still worked at NAZA. Among my peers, I was named the best engineer. Within a few years, I had brought a number of major projects to success."
"Did you enjoy your work?" The swan asked.
"Um, well, I guess." Satsuko answered. "But…Ever since I was young, I loved studying, and as an adult, my research was my life. So…w-well…"
"You didn't know how to befriend other people." The swan finished, to which Satsuko nodded.
"I didn't have anyone I could call a friend."
"How sad and lonely you must have been." The swan replied.
"But there was one person who reached out for me." Satsuko said. "He was my boss at the time. He said "you and I can be good friends."."
"You must have been really happy." The swan said.
"Of course I was, I finally had a friend. But…it turned out he was only doing that to know what I was coming up with. And then, when he got the chance, he stole all my projects and named them his own. After that, I swore to myself that I was never again going to trust someone completely except Falcomon."
"A most interesting story. Your past reflects society as it really is. Betrayal is the essence of society." The swan said.
"Betrayal is the essence of society…" Satsuko said.
"That's right. If you let me give you my power, never again will the ones who betray you remain unpunished." The swan said as he turned into a sphere of white light and entered Falcomon.
Satsuko's Digivice then turned into a white Transer.
(The next day)
"Uhh…I can't believe it's morning already." V-mon said as he woke up and stretched.
Daisuke looked at the watch on the wall.
"Oh crap, we're late. Come one V-mon, or else we'll miss the bus to Ogata-san's lab." Daisuke said as he quickly got up, took a shower and, instead of sitting down to eat breakfast, cut the bread in two and filled it with butter and bacon and but a bottle of water in his backpack and ate the brad while he and V-mon ran to the bust station.
"Thank God…we're…not late…" Daisuke said as he panted heavily.
"It wasn't a good idea to eat so quickly and run at the same time." V-mon said as he watched his partner nearly puke.
The two buses then arrived simultaneously at the bus station and Daisuke and V-mon decided to board the first one.
(At AMAKEN)
As Daisuke and V-mon dropped off the bus, they saw Eiji and Bakumon there, waiting for them.
"Hey, you came." Bakumon said.
"Sorry we're late. I overslept." Daisuke said.
"No problem. Welcome to the Aerospace and Modern Astronomy Knowledge Expansion Nexus, or just "AMAKEN" for short. We've got a good name going for ourselves and have great equipment." Eiji said. "Ready for a tour?"
"Daisuke-kun?"
Daisuke and the others turned around to see all the Erabareshi Kodomo there, with an exception of Ken, surprised to see him there.
"What are you doing here?" Taichi asked, not knowing Daisuke was into astronomy.
"Friends of yours?" Eiji asked with a smile.
"Yeah, kind of." V-mon replied.
"We should be the one's asking you that question." Daisuke said.
"Well, my lab was starting to get pretty popular as of late and I ordered a few more than usual buses." Eiji said with a laugh.
"Since today is a holiday, Hikari-san decided that we should go see the new space lab. We were looking all over for you to see if you also wanted to come." Yamato said. "You?"
"Ogata-san invited me to come see AMAKEN." Daisuke replied.
"Wait, you know him?" Iori asked, knowing who Eiji was.
"Yeah…" Daisuke replied.
"How?" Miyako asked, wondering how Daisuke knew Eiji.
"…They don't know?" Eiji asked, surprised.
"No." Daisuke replied.
"Know what?" Mimi asked.
"I was an old friend of Daisuke's older brother, Motomiya Daime." Eiji said with a grin as he placed a hand on Daisuke's head.
"YOU HAVE AN OLDER BROTHER?" The Erabareshi Kodomo screamed, nearly leaving Daisuke and V-mon deaf.
"More importantly, your brother is Motomiya Daime?" Yamato asked.
"You heard of him Yamato?" Taichi asked his best friend.
"Yeah, he was a really great and famous astronaut; until there was an accident in the space station he was working on, known as PEACE." Yamato said, making Daisuke lower his head in grief.
"If you knew his brother had died, couldn't you have been more discreet?" Sora whispered to Yamato as she elbowed him in the rib.
"Oh, you poor thing, you lost your brother and you still continued trying to be happy." Mimi said as she hugged Daisuke, making him rather uncomfortable.
"Um…I appreciate the concern but I'm fine, let's just get going with the tour." Daisuke said while giving Eiji a look that said "Please save me from them, PLEASE!".
"Well, since you're all friends of Daisuke's I would be more than pleased to show you all around. My name is Ogata Eiji and this here is Bakumon. I'm the head of this lab."
"Wow, we're getting a tour from the head of the lab!" Armadimon said.
"Thank you so much sir!" Hikari said as he bowed down to Eiji, showing her gratitude.
"Your welcome young lady." Eiji said. "Well, let's be off then, shall we?"
As Eiji said that, the group walked into outer entrance of the lab. The first stop was a big tower.
"Okay Daisuke-san, do you know what this tower is?" Eiji asked, to which Daisuke shook his head. "This is a special radio tower I created to search for your brother. Someday I guarantee you, I will have good news for you and your family."
"Thanks." Daisuke replied.
"I'm sure you will find your brother someday Daisuke-kun." Hikari told him with a smile.
As the group was about to head to the next sight-see, Miyako noticed that Iori was also carrying a Transer.
"Iori-san, since when do you have that?" Miyako asked, pointing to his arm.
The Erabareshi Kodomo then turned and saw that Miyako was right, Iori also had a Transer, just like Daisuke.
"Oh crap." Daisuke thought.
"Iori-san, how come you have one just like Daisuke?" Takeru asked.
"Actually…I don't remember." Iori said.
"What's this all about?" Jyou asked.
"Daisuke showed up with something strange in his arm a few days ago. He wouldn't tell us what it was. And now, Iori-san has one just like Daisuke's." Takeru explained.
"It's nothing, let's just keep going."
"Well, then let's enter the building." Bakumon said.
As the Erabareshi Kodomo entered the main building, they found someone there.
"Hey, Ken!" Daisuke said from afar.
Ken and Wormmon then turned and saw all the Erabareshi Kodomo there.
"Hey." Ken said as he gave Daisuke a high-five.
"Didn't expect seeing you here." Daisuke said. "What are you doing here?"
"Just decided I would use the holiday to check out AMAKEN." Ken replied. "By the way, Miyako-chan, sorry for not calling, I've been really busy and stuff."
"It's okay." Miyako told her boyfriend. "By the way, Ken-san, you'll never believe it, Daisuke has an older brother."
"Yeah, I know."
"…You knew?" Hikari said.
"Well, yeah, Motomiya Daime, it is quite obvious. And besides, Daisuke-san told me."
"Wait, you told him and you didn't tell us?" Yamato said.
"Well, yeah, he's my best friend, what did you expect?"
"By, the way, Daisuke-san, what's that in your arm?" Ken asked.
"Nothing important." Daisuke replied.
"…Sure, whatever you say." Ken said.
"Another friend Daisuke-san? And this time Ichijouji Ken. Seems like you have quite some friends Daisuke-san. Well then Ken-san, let me introduce myself, I'm Ogata Eiji, the head of this lab and an old friend of Daime's." Eiji said.
Eiji and Bakumon then saw Satsuko and Falcomon from afar and introduced them to the Erabareshi Kodomo.
"Well, why don't you guys go check the Science Museum." Eiji said as he gave the group free tickets to enter the musem.
The Erabareshi Kodomo entered the Science Museum and checked everything they could, fascinated by the number of things the museum had to offer.
"This is such a great place. I think I should ask the teacher for this to be our next field trip." Hikari said.
"Well, now that we've seen everything, why don't we go back to Ogata-san?" Daisuke suggested, which the others agreed to.
"So you've already seen everything? Then our next stop is the staff area." Bakumon said as Eiji gave all the Erabareshi Kodomo a free tickets to the staff area. They then took the elevator to the last floor and entered a lab.
"These are inventions that are still incomplete or are at least blueprints. Feel free to look around." Eiji said as everyone looked around.
But deep within the shadows where no one could see, Satsuko and Falcomon were listening intetly.
"These are amazing. Excuse me Ogata-san, would you mind telling me what is this?" Yamato asked.
"Oh that, that's…Pack, it's my invention." Eiji said.
At that moment, Satsuko felt as if time had stopped. Again, once again he was betrayed. Not being able to handle it, he went out the back door of the lab, so no one would notice.
"I see…quite an interesting machine, this Rocketboost-Pack." Yamato said. "What about this one?"
"That's something my assistant created. I think it's close to completion. When I first saw, it pretty much convinced me. Hahhaaaaa!" Eiji said as he started laughing.
"It's time for the SpaceSim tour to start." Bakumon said.
"SpaceSim tour?" Koushiro asked.
"You'll see when we get there." Eiji said as the group started leaving the lab.
(Meanwhile)
"It's the same! Just like that one time!" Satsuko said. "Why? Why does this keep happening to me?" Satsuko asked as his eyes welled up.
"See? I told you. Betrayal is the essence of society."
"What should I do?" Satsuko asked the swan that suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Simple, punish all those who betray you. Release the darkness in your heart." The swan said as he entered Falcomon, who started glowing along with Satsuko.
(Meanwhile)
"Everyone have a spacesuit?" Eiji asked, to which the Erabareshi Kodomo nodded.
Daisuke and V-mon had cyan spacesuits, Takeru and Patamon green, Ken and Wormmon black, Hikari and Tailmon pink, Iori and Armadimon beige, Miyako and Hawkmon red, Taichi and Agumon orange, Yamato and Gabumon blue, Sora and Piyomon crimson, Mimi and Palmon light green, Koushiro and Tentomon purple, and Jyou and Gomamon gray.
"Great, the put them on and check out the SpaceSim." Bakumon said.
As the group put on their spacesuits and walked into the SpaceSim, they disbelieved their eyes. They were in space, or at least it looked and felt like it.
"Guys, welcome to SpaceSim. It is an exact replica of space; there is no gravity, no oxygen and over there you can see the planet and stars. So don't go too far because, since this is an exact replica of space, there will be no end of you wonder off to someplace and get lost." Eiji said.
"Wow, I can't believe such a thing exists." Koushiro said as he and Tento looked around.
"It's almost as if we're in space. That is such a romantic thought." Hikari said with her eyes closed, enjoying the moment.
The guide then told everyone to gather up.
"Hello everyone, and welcome to SpaceSim. Oh, Ogata-san, Bakumon, will you be joining us today?" The guide asked.
"Yeah, we are here with some of the kids. But please, don't let our presence interfere. Continue." Eiji said.
"Oh, very well then. As I was saying, I will be your guide today, now, let's begin the tour shall we." The guide said as she flew towards the Earth and, thus, began the tour.
"This is Earth, as I'm sure you all know. The Earth was initially thought of as to be flat and in the center of the univers, but was later proven to be round and to orbit around our star, the Sun. The Earth is the 3rd planet of the Solar System."
The group then went on to Saturn.
"This is Saturn. It's famous for its giant ring that encircle the planet. Can one of you kids guess what it's made of?" The guide asked the younger Erabareshi Kodomo. "No one…how about you?" The guide asked Daisuke.
"Me…um, if I'm not wrong, it's made of little particles of dust and ice." Daisuke answered.
"Yes, that's absolutely correct."
"Way to go Daisuke!" Taichi said as he slapped Daisuke's back.
"Now, we will see the shooting stars. Shooting stars are meteors that leave behind a visible bath of meteoroid as it enters the Earth's atmosphere. In that past, it was believed that shooting stars were a bad omen, but nowadays, it is believed that shooting stars grant wishes to those who witness it enter the Earth's atmosphere."
"Shooting stars…they're so pretty and romantic!" Miyako said in a dreamy state while clinging to Ken's arm.
"Hahahhaa! You really are Daime's little brother. Your face lights up whenever you talk about space." Eiji said.
"Next is the…"
"Falcon Dance."
"Yes, Falco Dan…wait a second! We don't have anything like that! Who said that?" The guide asked.
"Up here."
Everyone looked above the simulator that was in the middle of the SpaceSim, and saw Sotsuka and Falcomon up there.
"Zainara-san?" The guide said.
"Satsuko, Falcomon what are you doing in here without a spacesuit?" Eiji asked.
"We don't need spacesuits." Falcomon said.
"We have been reborn." Satsuko said as he and Falcomon started glowing and fused into one creature, a man with a black armor and black wings.
As the creature appeared, memories started flooding back to V-mon's mind.
"Now behold!" The man said as he started spinning.
"Daisuke, turn around, now!" V-mon said, and both of them turned.
"That's strange…"
"My body!"
"It is moving by itself!"
Daisuke turned and looked at his friends and saw that everybody was spinning.
"That's right! Dance and dance, until you run out of oxygen and drop dead." The creature said as he entered simulator computer.
"Daisuke, come on, we have to get out of here and pulse in." V-mon said, to which Daisuke nodded.
The duo rushed outside and Daisuke put on his goggles to find the closest wavehole.
"There!" Daisuke said as he ran over to the wavehole.
"Denpa Henkan! Motomiya Daisuke-On Air!" Daisuke said as he injected the blank card in his Transer and he and V-mon fused, becoming V-man.
"Okay, now to face Zainara-san!" V-man said as he ran down the Wave Road and entered the Wave Road within SpaceSim. "There, the simulator." V-man said as he ran to the edge of the Wave Road and jumped into the simulator.
(Within the simulator computer)
"Okay, we're here. Now, Zainara must be up ahead." V-mon said as he and V-man looked around.
"That's far enough!"
V-man and V-mon looked up to see a bunch of flying ducks in the sky.
"We are the Quacky Lackies! We are loyal servants of lord Falcon Wing!"
"Falcon Wing, huh?" V-man said.
"Boy, you guys sure are some noisy ducks." V-mon said.
"Ducks? Did you just say DUCKS? !" The leader of the Quacky Lackies said. "Insolent fool! We are beautiful purebred swans!"
"But you're not even remotely white." V-man said.
"What do you know? Mind your own business! Dance of Stars!" The leader of the Quacky Lackies said he launched a star and V-mon, who back hand-sprung to avoid it. "How was that?"
"Not all that bad duckies." V-mon said with a grin.
"You said it again! Unforgivable! A duck's wrath is to be feared!" The leader of the Quackly Lackies said.
"Uh…you just called yourself a duck." V-man noticed.
"Just a bunch of quackers in denial, huh?" V-mon said.
"…"
V-man then dodged as the group of ducks sent a barrage of stars at him.
"Air Spreader +20 + Paralyze!" V-mon turned into some kind of cannon and launched an air shot that, upon hitting the first duck, dispersed into many others and hit the ducks, paralyzing them.
"Great, now they're sitting ducks." V-mon said.
"Gatling!" V-man said as V-mon turned into a gatling gun and started rapidly firing at all the Quacky Dackies, deleting all of them.
"AAAAAHHHHH! Lord Falcon Wing!" The Quacky Lackies said as they started to blow up.
"Great, now that that's taken care of…" V-man suddenly stopped him sentence when an image randomly appeared to his mind. It resembled that of a black bird with a trail of yellow energy behind it. "What was that?"
"That blue guy's knowledge is reaching me again." V-mon said as he closed his eyes as information started filling his mind. "Apparently those Battle Cards we have aren't the only one to exist. There are other that we can obtain by defeating enemies. But we have to switch them for another card."
"Alright then Paralyze for Jet-Attack." Daisuke said as the name of the Battle Card came to his mind. "Great, I think it was installed."
"So now the only thing that's left is Falcon Wing." V-mon said as V-man started running down the Wave Road towards the enemy.
"I've got you now!" V-man said as Falcon Wing turned around to see him.
"Hmm? A human? Here? Who are you?" Falcon Wing asked.
"Ahh, there they are. The boys who succeeded my old friends will and now carry the key. But still, you're nothing but a tiny child." The swan creature said as he appeared.
"What about you? You fused with a pretty weak man. Before you fused with him, he could have never brought himself to do something like this. What did you do to him?" V-mon asked.
"I didn't do anything. This is what he wanted, right?" The swan said.
"I was betrayed." Falcon Wing said. "The Flap-Pack was my invention. Eiji…He…!"
(Meanwhile, outside the simulator)
"*Pant* *Pant*. Wait…that person on the monitor…that's V-man! So that incident wasn't a dream?" Hikari said as she looked at the monitor in the simulator.
"Eiji, he claimed it was his own!" Falcon Wing said.
"That's not true!" Eiji said. "I never claimed that! I swear!"
"So you guys can hear us." Falcon Wing said. "Eiji, I want to thank you, because you were the one who made me realize that betrayal is the essence of society."
(Inside the simulator)
"It's hopeless; this guy won't listen." V-mon said.
"So now what?" V-man asked.
"We use brute force." V-mon answered.
"Then get ready!" The swan said as he flew back inside Falcon Wing.
"Come on V-man! Let's rock his world!" V-mon said as both EM beings charged at each other.
"Sword!" V-man said as V-mon turned into an energy-sword.
"Falcon Feather!" Falcon Wing said as he launched several of his feather at V-mon, who parried them out of the way with his sword and slashed Falcon Wing.
"Why you! Wataritori!" Falcon Wing flew into the air and summoned his minions to attack V-man, who was able to dodge some of them, but was later hit fully by the rest. "Falcon Feather!"
"Barrier!" V-man said as he was surrounded by a barrier of energy, protecting him from the feathers. "Wide Sword!" V-mon turned into a energy-widesword, and V-mon jumped towards Falcon Wing, who attempted to dodge to the side, but was hit due to the width of the sword.
Falcon Wing then kicked V-man back to the ground, but was able to turn around and land on his feet.
"V-Buster!" Daisuke said as V-mon launched several shots at Falcon Wing, who just shrugged them.
"You have no idea of the pain I deal with!" Falcon Wing said as he charged at V-mon and started punching him and eventually kicked him in the guts away.
"Man, he really is angry." V-mon said as V-man stood up.
V-man then saw Falcon Wing once again charging towards him and dodged and retaliated the punch and added a kick.
"Jet-Attack!" V-mon turned into a back bird and V-man charged at Falcon Wing at the speed of sound, flashing him with the energy of that V-man emitted from his body that was like a spear, making Falcon Wing fall down in pain.
"Well done V-man." The swan said.
"Satsuko-san! Please stop, listen to me!" Eiji said.
(Outside the simulator)
"Eiji, I see you've stopped dancing." Falcon Wing said, noticing everyone was now back to normal since he was defeated.
"I didn't steal your invention." Eiji said.
"Please…I heard you…bragging about the Flap-Pack to the kids."
"No, you got it all wrong." Miyako said.
""Flap-Pack, that was something my assistant created." That's what Ogata-san said." Iori said.
"He said it was really good and even praised it!" Jyou said.
"Lies! All lies! You are all banding together in an effort to defeat me." Falcon Wing said.
"…What do I have to do to make you believe me?" Eiji asked.
"How about this?" Falcon Wing said. "Show me how one person trusts another. Remove your helmet, right here, right now."
"But there is no oxygen in here." The guide said.
"What if I say I filled the room with oxygen earlier?" Falcon Wing replied.
"But that's impossible." The guide said.
"See! We can't trust each other!"
"Alright. I'll do it." Eiji said.
"W-what? !" The guide said.
"He can't possible be serious!" Falcon Wing thought, until Eiji removed his helmet.
"Phew! There really is oxygen. Although really thin and not of the best quality." Eiji said with a grin.
(Inside the simulator)
"Impossible…But what if I was lying?" Falcon Wing said.
"Then I would have to deal with it." Eiji said. "But I already told you, I trust you."
"You trust me? ! You risked your life based on that? !"
"I will say it as many times as I have too. I trust you." Eiji said. "So please, trust me. Um, I was I a bit too forceful there? Ehheeeh." Eiji said as he laughed.
"Don't listen to him! He's trying to trick you again!" The swan said as it once again appeared.
"Satsuko-san, do you know why people have friends?" Eiji asked, to which Falcon Wing just stood there motionless. "Because relationships are the essence of society. I know what happened to you in the past, so I understand you lost your faith in people, but please, don't think that betrayal is all there is in this world."
"Lies! Betrayal is all there is!" The swan said.
"Oh please! Betrayal is all there is my ass! That guy just risked his life for you! Do you still think that betrayal is all there is?" V-mon asked, to which Falcon Wing slowly shook his head.
"Look, I don't know what happened to you, but if you're that lonely, then I would be more than glad to be your friend." V-man said as he reached out his hand with a grin, making Falcon Wing widen his eyes.
"Look around you Satsuko-san. I'm sure that if you look hard enough, you will see things other than betrayal and the good things in human beings." Eiji said.
"Nngh…AAAAAAAGGGHHHH!" Falcon Wing screamed as he separated into Satsuko, Falcomon and the swan creature.
"Hey, he changed back." V-man said.
"He willingly chased the FM-ian out of his heart."
"Satsuko-san/Falcomon! Are you okay? SATSUKO-SAN/FALCOMON!" Eiji and Bakumon called out their unconscious friends.
"Don't worry, they're fine. They just blacked out from exhaustion. They'll wake up soon enough." V-man said as he pulsed out.
(A few hours later)
Satsuko and Falcomon returned to the real world and regained conscious a few hours later. There memory was a bit spotty and were a bit confused. But they clearly remembered what Eiji had said.
(Outside AMAKEN main building)
"I am very sorry about what happened today." Eiji said. "I didn't mean to put you guys in danger."
"Don't worry, we still had a load of fun." Takeru said.
"Well, come back and visit anytime." Bakumon said.
"Yes, of course!" Hikari said.
"Well, good-bye." Daisuke said as he and the others left.
"See ya, tell your sister and parents I said hi!" Eiji told Daisuke.
Suddenly, Eiji started running up to the Erabareshi Kodomo until he caught up to them.
"By the way, Daisuke-san. The thing I said before: Relationships are the essence of society." Eiji said. "The first time I heard it, it was from Daime-kun."
"Daime?" Daisuke asked.
"I think you carry on that motto of his." Eiji said.
"Thanks." Daisuke said as he and the others left.
There, I hope you liked the chapter.
