A/N: Um... hi everyone... uh, sorry for the late update? Um anyways I just realized that I could plug my phone into my computer for WiFi, the lack of which is one of the main reasons this is so late. I really did mean to get it out when I said I would, but my computer is old and has a bad internet chip, so I haven't really been able to write. I'm an idiot and I'm sorry and to make it up to you I'm going to write a chapter of Knight and Angel Chronicles and post it on Saturday. I really am sorry and I know no amount of apologizing will make it up to you, but I'm writing a longer than normal chapter. Also, this and KaAC are the two fics that I see myself never giving up, so don't worry about it. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy this chapter it's gonna be 2K+ words! The longest I've written for a single chapter. EVER! Ahem, so... yeah.

Chapter 4: Discovery

"Datamon, we still need to discuss how we will locate the other 5 humans and their digimon partners." Lucemon stated as the Rookie and Ultimate walked through the science wing of the castle.

"To be honest I-" Datamon stopped abruptly. "Someone is in my lab that isn't supposed to be... and they're making a mess." Datamon's eyes flashed red as he rushed to his lab to see a girl in a black seifuku, wearing a green bowtie, yelling at a Youkomon.

"... your fat ass broke, now you need hands to clean it up. Degenerate now!" The girl yelled.

"Yes mistress." The Youkomon glowed white before changing forms to become a yellow bipedal fox with large purple gloves on it's hands.

"Are you a... petmon?" Datamon snarled as he spoke the last word with disgust.

"I am a Renamon." The fox answers bluntly.

"Yes, but are you this, this... human's pet?" Datamon growled the word human like he despised the word more than words can describe.

"Under the human government, yes. otherwise I am her friend." Renamon stated in her monotone voice.

"Datamon, what's wro...ng?" Lucemon entered the lab to find the girl telling Datamon that the she was brought by aliens to destroy the galaxy. Lucemon sighed, "I was not ready for today..."

The first thing I noticed when I stepped through the portal was the burning marine running towards me. The second was the blistering heat caused by the fire all over the area. I had a simple solution to both problems. I summoned a shockwave blade with my digisoul and took a look around to see where I ended up. After taking in the sight of about a hundred marines cut in half horizontally, some floating in what appeared to be a large body of water, and the stunned, and injured, Greymon near what used to be a treeline, I concluded I was on a beach of sorts.

"You're strong." I heard the voice of my new companion say from atop my head. "And vicious."

"I put out the fire, didn't I?" I replied.

"You killed nearly a hundred marines in the process."

"Not my fault."

"It's only your fault!"

"Besides, most of them are only dying currently." I motioned to the nearest one, whose blood oozed out and stained the sand red. The man was moaning in pain as he cried.

"THAT'S EVEN WORSE!" The bunny yelled.

"Oh wait, I think a few escaped the wave." I said as I saw a few of the bodies not bleeding. "I think I'll go fix that. Manifest." I focused my Digisoul into a few thousand blades and chopped the remaining marines up in less than a blink of the eye.

"OH MY GOD!" Lopmon jumped down from my head.

"What? I killed them faster than their nerve endings could have communicated pain, they literally never knew what hit them." I said trying to appease the rabbit.

"Is your first response to to kill anything in front of you?!" Lopmon sounded less angry, just more exhausted.

"Usually not, but I don't like soldiers." I told her. I heard sobbing from behind I nearby rock. "Excuse me." I moved in large strides towards the sound to find another marine staring at the severed corpse of one of her allies.

"Chris..." The woman sobbed, "I didn't, didn't even..." Then she began crying even harder.

"I would say 'sorry,' but I don't think you deserve it." I told the woman, startling her.

"W-who are you?" She said shakily. "What do you mean?"

"Hmm... who am I?" I wondered, maybe I should leave this marine alive, let her tell the army about another ally of the digimon. But what should I call myself, I know Renegade wasn't dead, so I couldn't take his/her name... maybe... "Shinigami."

"W-what?"

"Reaper, soul collector, whatever you prefer, but something along those lines." I told her. I motioned to the bodies littering the beach. "I am the one that did this."

"WHY!?" Her scream was filled with pain, and I almost felt bad. Almost.

"How many lives have you taken?" I asked simply.

"W-what?" The marine sounded confused.

"Oh right, I forgot that the governments of the world fill everyone's heads with propaganda about how Digimon are nothing but data, no feelings, just programming." I said, "Every digimon you've killed up to this point had family." The marine looked at me like I was crazy, which was a fairly accurate observation, although not for the reasons she thought.

"I get it, you're one of those Pro-Digimon crazies." She said.

"Do you have a family? Brothers? Sisters?" I asked offhandedly.

"Yes, but what does that have anything to do with-" I cut her off.

"How would you feel if you saw them get gunned down in front of your eyes?"

"What?" The marine sounded truly confused.

"Nevermind." I told her as I looked her in the eyes. "I want you to return to your ship, and tell your higher ups that Shinigami has risen."

"Why-"

"Because if you don't you'll receive the same fate that man has." I motioned to the man she called Chris. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have a digimon to either kill or befriend."

I waked away to find Lopmon conversing with the now degenerated BlackAgumon. "... was just tryin' to scare the humans off." I heard the BlackAgumon finish telling Lopmon. "Anyways, how did you do that trick with the energy wave?"

"That was me." I said as I walked up. "And it's not a trick, I just used my Digisoul."

The black reptile's emerald eyes widened as he took in what I said. "Then you're like Artur..."

"Greymon you son of a bitch!" I heard an angry voice yell from the direction of the new treeline. I soon saw the owner of the voice emerge from between the trees. He wore silver bodied black tinted goggles over his eyes, had a black facemask and wore a black trenchcoat, along with his messy black hair and pale skin. He stopped dead in his tracks as he absorbed the sight before him. And he somehow paled even further. "What. THE FUCK BLACKAGUMON!?" He screamed.

"I swear I didn't do it!" The reptile said as he was fixed with the immense killer intent the boy produced.

"THEN WHO DID?!"

"Sorry, that would be me." I said.

It seemed like the boy realized I was there as well as Lopmon. "Sure you did." He said sarcastically.

"You don't need to believe me, but I will ask if you know where we are." I said.

"Welcome to File Island, the last stronghold of Digimon resistance in the Digital World." He replied tiredly.

"Oh good, could you take me to your base? I'm kind of a bit of an outlaw among humans now." I replied cheerfully.

"Oh my god, I'm stuck with a guy that belongs in an insane asylum." Lopmon sighed, "Just do what he says, from what I've seen, he could kill both of you easily, and I for one don't want to see any more death and destruction."

It took two hours, two dozen digimon, and his Chaos mode, but Lucemon finally managed to catch the annoying girl in his stronghold and put her in a soundproofed cell. The leader of the Digimon resistance, and impromptu king, was currently siting at a conference table with his two advisors and the leader of the stronghold guards.

"So Knightmon, could you explain to me how a girl and her Youkomon got through seventeen perimeter patrols, twelve guards at the front gate, and three Andromon guarding the entrance to Datamon's wing?" Lucemon, back in his Rookie stage, asked a sweating giant knight digimon.

"W-well-" Knightmon began before being interrupted and saved by Artur walking in the doors followed by BlackAgumon, a stranger, and a Lopmon.

"You're telling me this human single-handedly wiped out a platoon of human soldiers? You actually expect me to believe this?" Lucemon gave a tired sigh. Datamon had left after recognizing Lopmon as another 'Petmon,' and Knightmon slipped off knowing that this would occupy Lucemon's attention enough that he may forget about his slip-up.

"I'm right here you know." I said plainly. Lucemon ignored me.

"I didn't believe it either until I saw him cut that rogue Kuwagamon cleanly in half, vertically mind you, without a weapon." Artur replied.

"I have his data in my CDC if you want it." I told them.

"What's with the knapsack by the way?" BlackAgumon asked, pointing to my knapsack, which I had forgotten about.

"Shit!" I opened it and hurriedly looked inside, if the eggs broke... "Oh thank god." I sighed in relief. My peace offerings were still intact.

Lucemon focused on me. "What is in there?"

"Peace offerings." I pulled out the two digieggs. "So you'll let me live among you."

"I'll accept them." Lucemon said happily, it wasn't every day that he was able to get a digiegg, much less two. "Although I still don't believe you took down an entire platoon of soldiers."

"Like I told Artur, it doesn't matter if you believe it, I just want a place to stay dry in when it rains."

"Why is that Lopmon with you?" Lucemon then asked, "It does smell like a pet digimon."

"The digital task force was going to kill her, so I killed them and brought her with me." I explained, I left out the part about Gargomon's death at the hands of the same task force, for Lopmon's sake.

"Alright." Lucemon shrugged before turning back to face Artur. "We have a problem on our hands."

"What kind of problem?" Artur asked.

"The kind of problem We're sick of dealing with." Tactimon answered, speaking for the first time since I'd arrived.

"I'm too tired from helping BlackAgumon Digivolve." Artur waved a hand. "I'm gonna go to sleep."

"I'm tired from digivolving." BlackAgumon said as he stood up and followed his partner. "Plus my legs still hurt from when that energy wave cut into them."

"I'll help." I volunteered.

"Ugh, I'm going to have to go with you, aren't I?" Lopmon said as she massaged her brow. "Alright, let's go."

"We're here." A Deputymon said as we arrived in front of the cell the Renamon was in. "Now y'all jus' holler for me whenever y'all done, ya hear?"

"Thank you Deputymon." Lucemon smiled at the cowboy-style six-shooter with arms and legs, before it walked off.

"Hello." The Renamon spoke in a monotone.

"How did you and that girl get in here?" Lopmon asked.

"We went through a glowing oval." She said emotionlessly. "Come to think of it, the oval seemed to pull me towards it, not phys, phys... bodily, but in my head." The Renamon shrugged. "Then I fell on a table and broke it."

"Thank you for your time." Lucemon bowed.

"When will you let Mistress Koharu out?" The fox asked.

"As soon as she stops being annoying." Was the angel's immediate answer.

"I'm afraid that may never happen." The vixen sighed. "I've known her for three years and she's never stopped."

"We'll be leaving now." Lucemon said, and Deputymon seemed to appear from nowhere.

"No need to walk us back Deputymon." Lucemon reassured the mutant digimon.

"Alrighty then, I'll jus' stand guard here then." The cowboy gave a salute and stood at attention outside the Renamon's door.

As soon as we were sure the Renamon could no longer hear us, I told Lucemon that what happened to Renamon and this Koharu girl was strangely similar to how I ended up on the island.

As Lucemon began to reply an alarm sounded and Datamon's voice spoke over some kind of intercom system. "Lucemon, we may have a problem with the D-Vices!"

A/N: Jeez, I am SO sorry about the late update, also I meant to get this out last wednesday, but just couldn't motivate myself enough for it. I had much shorter scenes in mind, but they kind of just evolved as I wrote, so that's good. Right? I was going to have myself torture the girl, but I want to keep this at a T rating. Please Read and Review.
