Digimon: Digital Monster Invasion
!Trivia and Comments!
I'm on a roll. A third chapter over three days, setting personal records feel kinda nice. I'd say the first arc is soon finished. And I have a second arc that'll take place during the summer vacation in the story.
This is a dialogue heavy chapter as we're nearing the end of the first arc and will be helping with the setup for the next arc.
Chapter Six
Assistance, New Passion and the Warm Weather
It's now mid July. Akane and Yui, and the Digimon Club have each been fighting off Digimon before things escalates. And with the summer vacation starting soon things have gotten more hectic.
"It's really a great help to have you around here" Mei said as she leaned back in the sofa, as Kai sat in the opposite sofa.
"We can't just leave the Student Council like this" Maya said, she have long black hair that is kept in a ponytail. She has deep purple eyes. She's quite petite and skinny. She's wearing the high school uniform.
"So, what's first on the agenda?" Kai asked, "Since it's a new year I take there's quite a lot?"
"We aim to have taken care of the rest of this year before the Summer Holidays" Mei said, "And then it'll be the everyday things that comes after"
"Sounds like a good plan" Tomoe said as she went on to fondle Mei, "Not as good as Kijima" she said pouting.
Opening Theme: One Ok Rock - Keep it Real (0:25 - 2:05)
Sitting inside an office in the center of Shinjuku is Mr. Yamada and his employer, Hideo Takuma. These two and their company have hired Katalina Alexandria Lione, Joshua Locklear and Yui Kijima as they each have had interactions with Digimon, Yui currently being the only one that have a Digimon connected to herself.
"Well, Mr. Takuma, it's been over two months and we have yet to see any Digimon bond with humans" Yamada said.
"It's interesting to think of how these Digimon have interacted" Takuma replied as he stood looking out over Tokyo's skyline. "We've had the Moonmon take interest in Yui Kijima. And it seems they too have gotten their hands on someone with a Digimon"
"You mean Yamasaki's group?" Yamada asked.
"Yes. That man" Takuma grumbled, "He have some nerve to let this happen all the time"
"Well, he was that kind of man Sir." Yamada spoke. "I'll make sure things go as planned. Excuse me" he said as he bowed and left the office.
"Yamasaki. I hope you understand what trouble you're causing." Takuma mumbled, "I fear for what will happen when you continue.."
At the same time at a different office located in Shibuya, Mr. Hattori who currently doubles as a teacher at Shinjuku Middle and High School and is the faculty member attached to the Digimon Club is having a meeting with his employer, Mr. Jin Yamasaki.
"Sir. How are things progressing?" Hattori asked as he sat across from his employer. Mr. Yamasaki had short dark brown hair, and some light stubble. And he's wearing a simple black suit.
"Everything is going fine" Yamasaki replied.
"Even though there's Digimon in the real world?" Hattori asked.
"Yes. Soon the next phase can begin" Yamasaki said. "But the first goal is for the kids you're looking after to all have Digimon partners.
"So the Digimon Club being completed with Digimon will mean the start of phase two?" Hattori questioned.
"Yes. We cannot be certain moving on will be safe before there is enough Digimon around" Yamasaki said, a smile across his lips. "Call it a security option"
"I understand fully Sir." Hattori said as he bowed. "Now excuse me, since I'm doubling as a teacher I have to teach classes." he said as he left the office.
"Soon Takuma, soon I will show you my way is the right way!" Yamasaki laughed.
Meanwhile behind the school Akane, Kat, Joshua and Yui were talking about what they should do. Akane and Joshua leaning up against the white shed, Kat sat on the fence and as did Yui, a lit cigarette between her fingers.
"I have to admit, even though I didn't like how Yamada forced you two on me it's helpful" Yui said as she adjusted her glasses.
"Well" Kat said, blowing away some of the smoke, "It's always something you like us now, right"
"Yeah" Joshua said. "But at least we stick together now"
"But to think you've been doing it for what, half a year now?" Akane pointed out, "Must feel good that you can finally share the burden"
Yui sighed as she inhaled from her cigarette, "I still hold a lot of it myself. But being able to talk about it is helpful"
"I think it's nice you're more now" Lunamon laughed from her branch above them. "Yui is happy, so therefore I am happy"
"You're simple minded" Yui muttered.
"Maybe, but it's how I am and you can't change it" Lunamon laughed once more.
"Seeing you two makes me kinda envious" Kat admitted, "You two seems to have a lot of fun together"
"She's still annoying at times" Yui grumbled. "You still can't leave my underwear alone!"
"But it's so soft to touch" Lunamon sang
"That is still not a reason!" Yui hissed.
"I think it's a fine reason, I mean it is soft to wear at least" Kat laughed.
"You're taking her side?" Yui asked, turning towards the Mexican.
"That's not what I meant" Kat argued.
"Then we'll let her play with yours!"
"No, hey what are you doing"
"I'll leave those two themselves" Joshua muttered as he began to walk. What neither could see was the redness on his face.
"We do have class soon, so maybe you should stop playing with each other's clothes now" Akane giggled as she followed Joshua as the two girls ran after.
"Always funny to play with her head" Lunamon giggled.
"Lunamon" a voice said.
"Oh, it's you" Lunamon replied. "It's been a while" she said, her tone ice cold.
"Still mad at me for that?" the voice asked.
"Let's just say I'm not too fond of our last meeting" Lunamon said.
"And are you a humans lapdog now?" the voice asked.
"Lapdog?" Lunamon snipped, "We're equal, she's my partner and I, hers"
"So what they're saying is lies?" the voice said a bit confused.
"They?" Lunamon questioned.
"Don't you find it weird that Digimon have been appearing constantly in this world?" it asked. "Or even how we ended up here"
"So you're saying you know something?" Lunamon asked. "I think you should stay here and we'll talk it over with Yui and the others."
"Well, I'm sure that's a fine plan" it said as it sat down with a thump.
Meanwhile during the same break, the Digimon Club had been talking on the roof of the school.
"It's been oddly quiet with the Digimon" Drake said as he leaned against the fence. "Yet at the same time we've been getting two or more signals"
"It was nice of Hattori giving us some of those things as well. Digivice was it?" Sabrina said as she took out the squared device. It had two buttons and a small screen.
"It's helpful that it's not just me that know where the Digimon are" Tai spoke as she looked over at Kotemon who sat on top of the small building that housed the staircase.
"This one, too is thankful" Kotemon calmly said, "Though this one could use battle assistance"
"Sadly, none of the other Digimon have been too keen on helping us" Toshiro said, "None of them seemed to like us too much"
"I like your discipline" a gruff voice said, across the rooftop. The owner of the voice looked like a dinosaur in a full military getup, with a M16 on its back. It was sort of a pixilated army colored.
"Commandramon" Kotemon said calmly.
Commandramon, Child Level Digimon. It is part of a brigade called the D-Brigade that consists Dragon type Cyborgs. It's a special force whose missions are never made public. It's special attack is M16 Assassin.
"You kid" Commandramon's gruff voice said, as he pointed at Toshiro, "I like you, you'll be my general"
"Wait.. Me?" Toshiro asked confused pointing at himself.
"Did I stutter.. Sir?" Commandramon hissed.
"No, you didn't" Toshiro muttered.
"Then it is settled." Commandramon said. "I will be here with Mayor Kotemon until you return" he strictly said as he jumped up next to Kotemon as the bell rang.
"Oh crap!" Drake exclaimed, "Class!"
"We'll be back soon" Toshiro said as they ran down.
"What have you done that earns this one your presence?" Kotemon asked.
"As selfless as usual I see" Commandramon laughed. "You don't find it weird more and more of our kind is appearing?"
"That is a topic of great interest to this one" Kotemon answered. "Do you hold information?"
"Information" the dinosaur laughed, "I'll even share it with you old friend"
"This one is thankful for that" Kotemon replied.
"For old time sake" Commandramon grinned.
"Share your knowledge old friend" Kotemon spoke softly.
"It is actually humans that are at fault here" Commandramon explained, "It seems some of them are experimenting with our kind"
"That is horrible old friend" Kotemon exclaimed, "Is this why some of them refers to us as 'Human Lapdogs'?"
"That is correct" the dinosaur replied, "It seems they think all humans are the same. But it also seems like it is only the adult humans that create that behavior from us."
"You mean we are connected to how they feel?" Kotemon asked interested. "I admit I've felt a desire to grow stronger from the short period I've spent with Miss Tai."
"But at the same time, other Digimon seems to hold a lot of hatred for us. It looks like that device your partner have only reacts to Digimon with those negative emotions" Commandramon pointed out. "It didn't even notice I was there before I made myself noticed"
"That's an interesting theory" Kotemon said. "I think we should share this information with the others. And this one would gladly accept your help on the battlefield"
"It would be an honor my friend" Commandramon said. What felt like a minute of the two Digimon sitting just looking at the sky passed, "So. When are they coming back?"
"It usually takes a while" Kotemon said, "It would help if we were at their club room, but we can't venture through the building"
"Yeah. If others saw us it could be trouble" Commandramon agreed. "So we just wait"
"We wait" Kotemon said as he laid down. "It's peaceful at least"
The day moved on and club activities had once again started. At the student council's office they were talking over what to do for the school year.
"I think we need to worry about the students health" Maya spoke as placed both her hands on the table. "It seems a lot of students have started to smoke at our school" she said as she passed a picture of a bunch of cigarette butts.
"To think so many are smoking without anyone knowing" Kai muttered surprised.
"So I suggest a health campaign should be on its place" Maya said, "The faster we can combat the issue the better"
"You're right" Mei said, tapping a finger on the table. "Who brought this information?"
"Some of the students from the athletics club" Maya explained, "They noticed a few butts behind near their equipment shed and found that stack behind it."
"To think they've picked a location that secluded" Tomoe mumbled, "They're good"
"Or they just know the area. A lot of people walk over their school" Kai pointed out.
Meanwhile Akane and the others had returned to the spot behind the school they've been using for the past few months.
"Lunamon, are you ready to go?" Yui called out.
"Soon, I just have something we need to talk about" Lunamon said as she walked into view from behind the trees. "I'd like you to meet Agumon" she said pointing at the orange dinosaur like Digimon next to her.
Agumon, Child Level Digimon. Because it is still on the way to adulthood, its power is low, but as its personality is quite ferocious, it doesn't understand fear. It's special attack is Baby Flame.
"Another Digimon?" Kat mumbled, "How come we didn't know about this one?"
"You see Partner. Only Digimon harboring negative emotions can be traced by your thingy" Agumon explained. "Yes. I have chosen you to be to me what this girl is to Lunamon" it continued.
"So. You're saying I get a Digimon Partner?" Kat said ecstatic.
"Pretty much" Agumon said with a glint in his eye.
"This is so cool!" Kat almost shouted.
"How about you keep talking and Kat here can have her moment later?" Yui spoke bored, "The more information we get the better"
"Oh yes. A group of humans were experimenting with us Digimon. Part of that group have now been kicked out of the project. The removed group managed to learn how we Digimon were and felt. The other were still experimenting on us. The ones you have fought are Digimon that have experienced the pain or seen it" Agumon explained.
"That explains the 'Human Lapdog' element" Akane pointed out.
"But that also means we're either helping the good guys or the bad guys" Joshua said in a stern voice.
"Obviously if it's the bad guys we're helping it carries a bad element. It's possible we are. I mean why else would they pay good money for every Digimon" Yui spoke. "But at the same time, if those Digimon angered by what humans are doing, it's safer for us that we still fight"
"It's the right intention, even if it's harmful for Digimon" Lunamon said. "I don't blame your reasoning. We Digimon are a lot more dangerous to your world if we're out of control"
"And we need to be thankful that it's mostly Child Level Digimon like Lunamon and I you fight" Agumon said, "Even though I understand you've accessed Lunamon's Adult form, Lekismon"
"I think we need to have a word with Yamada" Kat said, "We need to know what we're dealing with"
"Without a doubt we do" Akane said. "But it's nice that we have a second Digimon on the team"
"It'll be helpful when more Adult Digimon show up" Lunamon said. "I can maybe keep up against two but it would be a losing battle"
"With summer around the corner I expect a lot more Digimon to be around, so we need to work out a plan of action" Yui pointed out. "Now, you two have a place arranged by Yamada. I live by myself in the same area. And Akane you live nearby as well"
"Yeah, so we're close to each other" Joshua explained. "That should be our strength even during the time we aren't here"
"Then, during the summer we'll learn of what is going on behind the scenes and do our best to stop it" Yui declared, stretching her arm out in the center of them. Lunamon doing the same.
"I'm starting to see why you dropped out of the council" Akane said as she placed her hand.
"This'll be our fight to make sure we still have a place to be!" Kat smiled, "And with Agumon by my side we'll be even stronger" she grinned placing her hand.
"And we can determine the problem started here and have stretched to other places, so we need to stop it!" Joshua spoke calmly placing his hand.
"For our world!"
Meanwhile away from the school a teen stood in the shadow of an alley. "So, more of your kind is around here?" he asked the large pointy shaped creature.
"Yes, but some of them are protecting other humans" the creature replied.
"Hmph, let them be. I'll crush them anyways!" the teen laughed.
A few days have passed and the summer vacation will be starting at the end of the day.
"Well then, class 6-3. I wish you a great summer" the teacher said as she bowed, she wore a simple summer dress and had brown hair sat in a bun. "Take care"
A buzz instantly aroused in the classroom as students hurried out. Meanwhile Akane, Kat and Yui made their way towards their regular meeting spot, "It's finally summer" Kat laughed.
"Soon we will begin the battle" Yui said, as she dug into her bag as they were nearing the shed where Joshua were already waiting.
"You girls took your sweet time, group bathroom break?" Joshua asked jokingly.
"Sorry you missed out on our fun" Yui teased back.
"Well, let's get going, Agumon, Lunamon" Akane laughed

!Final Comments!
Talk heavy, and not even any real action. But we can't only have battle chapters as the setup for the Introduction Arc's end had to be set up.
