The Song of the Brothers

Xxx

"Alright maggots listen up!" Warumonzaemon, a virus version of Monzaemon, commanded "You know how this is going to go!"

"Not really" a random Numemon interjected.

SLICE

Said Numemon was sliced up by the bear Digimon.

"As I was saying, I'm going to yell at all of you, whip you, treat you like dirt, and probably kill you for my own enjoyment…which I'm doing right now so I'm being ahead of schedule"

"Didn't we go through this before?" another Numemon asked.

SLICE

"Yes we do, but I figure it's more entertaining to explain it every day".

"Uh sir" a third Numemon attentively raised his voice.

"Yes?"

"Why do we need to cross the city each day?"

"Simple, to remind all you refugees what happen if you get enslaved by us. In fact…"

SLICE

"Now anybody else wants to make a…WHO'S HUMMING!?"

All the Digimon there didn't answer (In case you were wondering, they were Numemon and Hagurumon)

"I'll pretend that was a figment of my imagination" Warumonzaemon muttered "But if I hear THAT song again, you'll have a nice long talk with Mr. Machinedramon"

The Digimon gulped and nodded.

"Good…NOW MARCH!" and the Numemon and Hagurumon started marching to the factory in where they were forced to slave in.

The digidestined were watching this scene from the top of a building.

"Why did Warumonzaemon react strongly to the humming?" Izzy quizzed Monzaemon.

"I never really know" Monzaemon admitted "He never really had problems with whistling when we were kids"

"How can he kill innocent Digimon so mercilessly?" Kari sadly asked.

"In Machinedramon army, you have to be a big meanie" Monzaemon answered.

"Well why can't we just free them all?" Tai asked.

"Andromon says that we have to wait for his signal"

On one of the towers, a light flash twice.

"There it is"

Digivolution Activate

Agumon Digivolve to…GREYMON.

Tentomon Digivolve to…KABUTERIMON.

Biyomon Digivolve to…BIRDRAMON.

Salamon Digivolve to…GATOMON.

Warumonzaemon turned to the Digimon and snarled.

"Machinedramon warned me about you digi-brats, all I need is this one move to take you down."

Warumonzaemon pointed at them and shouted HEARTBREAK ATTACK!

A black heart-shape beam erupted from his claws that fired at the Digimon, Greymon and Birdramon dodged it, though Kabuterimon wasn't so lucky.

"Kabuterimon!" Izzy exclaimed "Are you alright?"

"No" Kabuterimon said sadly "I am not alright, I am never alright"

"Pardon?"

"Look at us! We're going up against the great Warumonzaemon! What chance do we have at winning?"

"I don't recall him being that depressed" Gatomon noted.

"In fact…" Kabuterimon reverted back to Tentomon "I don't even deserve to be in champion mode!"

"It's a side effect of the Heartbreak attack" Monzaemon explained "It gives you the case of the dumpies"

"So it turn people Emo" Sora mused.

"Yeah" Warumonzaemon agreed "And you'll be joining him…HEARTBREAK ATTACK!"

This one hits Greymon, who reverted back to Agumon "I have lost all purpose in my life. If I was reborn…I would want to be moss. Small and insignificant"

Sora sighed and said "Maybe these guys need a little love"

Kari nodded "And a little light as well!"

Ultimate Digivolution

Birdramon Digivolve to…GARUDAMON.

Gatomon Digivolve to…ANGEWOMON.

HEARTBREAK ATTACK

CELESTIAL ARROW

Angewomon's arrow managed to counteract the heartbreak, though Warumonzaemon retaliated by slashing her with his claws.

While he was distracted, Garudamon attacked with WING BLADE which melted his claw a little.

While the Digimon were busy with the evil teddy bear, the digidestined and Monzaemon were cutting the chains of the slaves.

"Thank you kind sir" one of the Haugurumon exclaimed.

"We'll pay you back in full debt!" Another Numemon added.

"Thanks, but you're free now" Tai said with a smile.

"WAIT!" Kari yelled "Do any of you know a song?"

"And also" Sora added "Do any of you know how to break into the factory?"

Some of them nodded.

"Everybody who know the song and can break in, please come with us. You can help us defeat Machinedramon!" Tai revealed.

The slaves cheered and the one who knew the song and the layout of the factory came running up (only a select few really) while the rest followed Monzaemon out of sight.

"MY SLAVES!" Warumonzaemon shouted only to get hit with a WING BLADE. Growling while putting himself out of fire, he ran up to Monzaemon.

"Where do you think you're going little bro?" Warumonzaemon angrily asked.

"Uh home?" Monzaemon answered.

"Well too bad" and Monzaemon barely dodged a frantic slash from his brother.

"Garudamon!" Sora called out, and her partner nodded.

But before she can go help Monzaemon out, she was attacked by a missile from Megadramon.

"Ah great it's Simon" Tai muttered "HEY! Where's Garfunkel!?"

"My brother is busy" Megadramon brutishly shrugged off "Master Machinedramon commanded me to help Warumonzaemon"

"Well you have to get through me first!" Garudamon stated.

Tai nodded "And also Wargr…Oh right"

Agumon was still in his depressed mood and isn't in the mood to Digivolve.

"He also gave me another assignment…KILL THE CHILD OF KNOWLEDGE!" And Megadramon fired missile upon missile at Izzy.

Angewomon immediately countered with CELESTIAL ARROWS that destroyed the missiles.

"Kill the Child of Knowledge?" Warumonzaemon mused "I can help with thaAHHHH!"

Angewomon fired at him with her attacks pushing him back. He growled and shouted "MEGADRAMON! I WANT TO KILL THE FAIRY!"

"Alright!"

"I'm not a fairy" Angewomon muttered, but Warumonzaemon didn't heard nor care as he fired a HEARTBREAK ATTACK at her.

She quickly dodged and retaliated with CELESTIAL ARROW only for it to be reflected by his claw.

"BEAR SLASH!" Warumonzaemon jumped up and slash at Angewomon with his cybernetic claw. Before she could recover, he kept on slashing at her with her dodging only a few.

"DARK SIDE ATTACK!" meanwhile, Megadramon was keeping Garudamon busy with his missile. Everytime he fired a missile, Garudamon retaliates with WING BLADE!

"GAH!" He shouted when a WING BLADE hits him, he growled and said "Time for Close Combat Bird-Brain!"

He took his glowing claws and shouted "ULTIMATE SLICER!" and he fly at Garudamon.

She hid behind a building, which Megadramon did not hesitate to slice. The building disintegrated after being sliced and Megadramon fired himself at Garudamon.

She took her fist and shouted "CRIMSON CLAW!" said fist got covered in a fiery aura and it clashed with Megadramon's slicer. The collision caused fiery shockwaves to destroy the buildings surrounding them.

While the Digimon were sparring in the sky (Warumonzaemon was jumping on the buildings) the digidestined and Monzaemon were rounding up the slaves in the order in which they can deliver them.

"Monzaemon" Tai said turning to said Digimon "Why didn't you fight back?"

Monzaemon scratched his head and replies "Well he may be a giant meanie, but he is still my brother"

"But he'll kill you!"

"I know" Monzaemon admitted "But I really don't want to sink to his level"

"You know what that reminds me of?" a random Numemon asked "The song of brothers"

"Song of…Wait is that the short song you were talking about?"

"Yup, here I'll sing it"

Song of the Brothers

(Just make your own tune in your head and I don't really know if this qualifies as a ditty, but I had to make the prophecy rhyme)

OHHHHHHHHHHH

(Garudamon punched Megadramon in the face)

There once was the tale of two brothers.

(Angewomon fired an arrow that pierced Warumonzaemon)

True companions like no other.

(Megadramon tried to slice Garudamon, only to slice a building behind her)

They looked the same as kids.

(Warumonzaemon fired a HEARTBREAK ATTACK that Angewomon dodged)

Yet adulthood was another bid.

(Megadramon fired a missile while Garudamon fired a phoenix)

They were destined for great things from the start.

(Angewomon's arrow was deflected from Warumonzaemon's claw)

But one had darkness in his heart.

(Garudamon blazed herself while Megadramon covered himself in a sharp aura)

It was than the brother separated from their crown.

(Angewomon put on a pink aura while Warumonzaemon put on a black one)

The crown that can take any mon down.

(FIRE TORNADO and RAZOR HURRICANE collided)

The power of the crown was lost.

(As did HEAVEN'S BULLET and SHADOW CLAW)

Until a brother returns with a cost.

(The fire and wind show no sign of stopping)

He is waiting for the days.

(Neither did the light and darkness)

To meet his brother, he says.

(The air faltered and Garudamon stopped spinning and held her fiery arm)

There once was a tale of two brothers.

(During the collision, Angewomon silently prepared an arrow)

Now separated from each other.

(When Megadramon stopped for a second, Garudamon inserted her blazed fist into him)

Good and evil will collide when they meet again.

(While Angewomon and Warumonzaemon were colliding she fired an arrow at point blank)

To battle for the crown for the next gen.

"AAHHHHHH!" Shouted Megadramon when Garudamon's CRIMSON CLAW attacked him. A burst of fire erupted from his body, and Megadramon was burned into deletion with Garudamon's fist still in his body.

The arrow that pinched Warumonzaemon failed to be fatal, yet it did something else. It destroyed his arm.

When Warumonzaemon saw the angry Angewomon, Garudamon, and the rest of the slaves he captured, he did what came naturally.

He ran.

"Hey wait a min-"Kari's cry was for naught, as Warumonzaemon disappeared into a portal that vanished instantly.

"He got away!" Angewomon exclaimed.

"But on the bright side, Megadramon is dead" Garudamon pointed out, than she started wobbling "And I am very tired…Good night"

She reverted to Yokomon who was caught by Sora. The minute she knew she was in safe hand, she fell asleep.

"Wait did I just miss a whole fight?!" Tai asked in shock.

"Two of them" Izzy revealed "How can you have missed it?"

"I was listening to a Numemon sing" Tai bluntly admitted.

"What?"

"That would be me!" exclaimed said Numemon "Let me sing it again…alright my chorus let us sing!"

The other Numemon who knew the song rallied up and sung the "Songs of the Brothers"

(Here's the actionless lyrics)

OHHHHHHHH

There was once a tale of two brothers

True companions like no other.

They looked the same as kids.

Yet adulthood was another bid.

They were destined for great things from the start.

But one had darkness in his heart.

It was than the brother separated from their crown.

The crown that can take any mon down.

The power of the crown was lost.

Until a brother returns with a cost.

He is waiting for the days.

To meet his brother, he says.

There once was a tale of two brothers.

Now separated from each other.

Good and evil will collide when they meet again.

To battle for the crown for the next gen.

"Nice" Kari said smiling "Though the last part was a bit depressing"

"I knew it" a depressed Tentomon said "Like the brothers who are separated; it fits on how we're going to die"

"I agree" an equally depressed Agumon stated.

"Oh for the love of…Does anybody know how to turn them back to normal?" a newly reverted Gatomon asked.

"I do!" and Monzaemon walked up to Agumon and Tentomon, and picked them up in a big hug.

Monzaemon said "HEARTFUL CUDDLE" and a pink aura surrounded the two depressed Digimon.

When they came too, Agumon asked "Why am I hugging a giant teddy bear?"

"It's not nighttime yet! I don't need a teddy bear" Tentomon muttered.

"Oh good you're back to normal" Tai said with a smile, than he turned to Monzaemon "Though why didn't you did that before?"

"I was about to, but I was busy listening to the Numemon sing" Monzaemon admitted.

"My mother was right" Sora muttered "Music is distracting"

"Anyway" Izzy started "Do any of you know how to break into Machinedramon's factory?"

This took the slaves by surprise "WH-!"

"I KNOW!" Tai shouted "We are crazy for doing it yada yada, but we need to break in!"

One of the Hagurumon sighs and said "I do remember it, but in order to full display it I need a computer of some kind…and not a laptop, but a big computer in order to download it!"

"We'll just have to take him and the others to the refugee" Monzaemon decided and he went off with the others following.

Xxx

Machinedramon''s factory

"WHHHYYYY!" Sobbed Gigadramon when he heard the report from Warumonzaemon.

"Because your brother was too weak" Machinedramon dryly answered "So let me put this in a list. One: Megadramon is dead. Two: The slaves are free. And Three: You lost your arm"

"Uh yeah" Warumonzaemon answered holding his head.

"Do you know what I want to do now after I specifically warned you about the digidestined?"

"Demote me?"

"Close"

KABOOM

Warumonzaemon was deleted thanks to Machinedramon's cannon. He turned to the computer and plugged himself in. Trying to see what conversation he can pick up from the digidestined and the refugees.

Normally he would try to pinpoint the location, but thanks to the Guardromon scrambeling technology he couldn't find it.

Xxx

Digi-City Refuges

For the third time, the slaves sung the "Song of the Brothers", and the Digimon's there memorized the lyrics.

"Interesting" Centarumon noted "This is the song that constantly infuriates Machinedramon?"

"Yeah" a Numemon confirmed "He goes psycho with even the whistling of the song"

"Why does he hate it so much anyway?" Sora wondered, cradling Yokomon in her arms.

Izzy opened his laptop, but before he can use it, it started to give off a weird glow.

"Hey!" Izzy exclaimed "What's wrong with my…"

"Hello again!"

"YAH!" Elecmon shouted "It's Machindramon!"

"Do not worry, because thanks to your technology, I can't pinpoint your location"

"What do you want Machinedramon?" Andromon angrily asked.

"Is that you Andromon? That pile of rubble did seem suspicious"

"I'm waiting"

"Very well. Congratulation digidestined, not only did you free the slaves, you also annihilated one of my best henchmen"

"Get to the point Machinedramon!" Tai shouted.

"So now you know of the song and the layout of my factory, you should really give yourself a pat on the back"

"If you came here you to goad us, stop it, we're suicidal enough to go to your factory" Tentomon retorted.

"Alright than. You now know of the song that infuriates me so much"

"That reminds me" Kari mused "Why do you hate that song so much?"

"Because it reminds me of my past, and it's the theme of my message"

"And that would be?'

"I given you a hint, can you figure out my connection to the song?"

Izzy was thinking when Machinedramon mentioned his past, but with that last sentence, it hit him.

"Y…you're one of the brothers in the song?" Izzy stammered out.

"Correct, and with that little message, farewell. Also can you figure out who my brother is? We'll definitely meet again"

The laptop stopped glowing, and everybody stared at where the Laptop was.

"Take Izzy's laptop" Andromon commanded "Give it security features so it can't be intercepted by Machinedramon!"

"I can't believe it" Sora cried "Machinedramon was one of the brothers in the song?"

"It makes sense" Centarumon noted "These two lines in particular"

But one had darkness in his heart.

Until a brother returns with a cost.

"These two lines make a lot of sense if Machinedramon was one of the brothers" Centarumon noted.

"Let me try to summarize the song" Tai said "Well it starts off saying two brothers that are best friends"

"I'm already having a hard time believing that was Machinedramon" Agumon muttered.

"They were destined for great things, but one had darkness in his heart" Tai sang.

"Mahcinedramon has plenty of that in his heart…assuming he had one" Elecmon quipped.

"And than it mentions a crown, do you know anything about a crown?"

All the Digimon shook their heads…except for Andromon.

"I heard about this crown" he admitted "But I don't know the full details. This crown has a powerful curse on it, yet only the true machine king can hold its power"

"Machinedramon is a machine king" Gatomon pointed out "So there's another one"

"I see" Izzy mused "The prophecy and the song is connected to our current crisis"

"Alright the next line said that the crowns power was lost and that a brother will return with a cost"

"The cost must be that he's a dark master now" Guardromon guessed.

"And the next couple lines state that the brothers will have to fight for the crown to see what would happen to all machine digimon" Tai finished.

"We have to find this so-called Machine king of Light" Tentomon stated "Apparently he's the only one who can battle with Machinedramon"

Tai clutched his head "Why is a song more confusing than a prophecy!?"

"Our objective is clear though" Andromon stated "We don't know anything about where the crown is. We also have to search for Machinedramon's Sin Card, and give the Child of Knowledge his power"

Izzy slapped his head "We were so busy with everything else, I completely forgot about that"

"We have to break in the factory" Kari exclaimed "It's the only thing we do know. Hagurumon?"

They nodded and showed the 3D diagram of the factory. They pinpoint at the smokestack on top.

"That is where you must break in" Hagurumon revealed "On the third pipe on the right, it is completely empty. You and your Digimon in rookie form can enter through there"

"None of us are small enough nor powerful enough to help" Elecmon sadly admitted.

"It's alright" Sora assured him "Just help us out with the refugees and we should be good"

"Very well" Andromon agreed "Might I suggest something else?"

"Sure"

"Go at sunset. That is the time when security is at its lowest"

"Okay"

"Three Cheers for the Digidestined!" shouted Elecmon.

While the refugees Digimon were cheering, Izzy turned to a nearby Guardromon and asked "Can I have my laptop back now?"

"Sure, here you go"

When Izzy received his laptop, Guardromon states something "Oh by the way we added a new feature"

"What?"

"Every single Digimon you ever seen, you can now know there Digivolution line"

"Pardon?"

"Like Agumon. You seen all stages of his digivolution and thus you have the full info, yet Digimon such as yours…do you know your partners mega form?"

"Well not really"

"Than the Mega form will be a blank" Guadromon scratched his head "Simply put you can see the digivolution chain of Digimon, there are varieties of digivolution like branch digivolution"

"Where there is more than one alternative for digivolution?"

"Correct. I just thought it would be a nice upgrade"

"Thanks. Don't worry I'm sure it would be useful" Izzy than tapped his chin "I think that explains a line in the song"

"Which one"

They looked the same as kids.

Yet adulthood was another bid.

"I'm guessing branch digivolution happened?"

"That's the most reasonable estimation, after all 'adulthood' is another way of saying 'champion' level"

"Prodigious" Izzy muttered, he went on the laptop only to find that it wasn't opening.

"Sorry" Guardromon apologized "But for the next couple of hours your laptop will have to process all its upgrades"

Izzy sighed as he shut it down.

Xxx

Machinedramon's Factory

Hagurumon was floating around, processing some new information, when he heard his master saying something.

"I'll show you brother of mine, we will meet again, and I will defeat you!"

Hagurumon quickly ran out of there in fear that Machinedramon will catch him snooping.

Machinedramon wasn't paying attention. He was looking at a wall. On one side of the painting had the lyrics to the "Song of the brothers". The other showed a painting of two Hagurumon.

Machinedramon munched on some Chrome Digazoid and walked away.

Xxx

We'll end here and in the next chapter we'll see the digidestined break into the factory. A digital cookie to those who know who the brother is. There are plenty of hints (Though I don't know if they make sense) Ah well please read and review.
