I do not own anything.
(Normal P.O.V)
"Is this it?" Fukumoto asked as he looked at the so-called rescue team. They were only six people.
"Yup." Daisuke said.
"Reinforcements?"
"None. We're getting out alone." Daisuke said.
"Is it too much to hope you at least have some sort of a plan?" Fukumoto asked as he walked towards Daisuke.
"We're gonna run across the lobby." Daisuke said.
"Are you insane? !" Fukumoto asked. "The lobby is crawling with those creatures!"
"It's also the widest area." V-mon said.
"It's too dangerous to take the long way around." Daisuke said.
"They're right." Hikari and Tailmon said as they picked up Kali and Culumon.
Everyone's attention turned towards Hikari and Tailmon.
"They aren't fast. We can get by them." Hikari and Tailmon said.
"Oh yeah?" Fukumoto said. "And since when did the NGO members become such authorities on the subject? !"
"They're one of the rare survivors of Odaiba." Daisuke and V-mon said. "They have more experience with this kind of hellish nightmare than anyone else here."
Everyone turned to look at Hikari and Tailmon in shock.
"Hey, Odaiba; isn't that where the…?" Yoji and Commandramon whispered to Mizuri and Mikemon.
"Yes…" Mizuri and Mikemon replied as they looked Hikari and Tailmon.
There was clearly more to Hikari and Tailmon than met the eye. But another thing Mizuri and Mikemon wondered was how Daisuke and V-mon knew that. What were their connections to Hikari and Tailmon's pasts? They were obviously more than acquaintances.
(A while later)
It was decided that they would take the route through the lobby to the exit. And thus, the survivors of the airport incident and the rescue team found themselves in a hallway filled with zombies.
Daisuke shot some zombies while V-mon attack some Digimon zombies before they turned to the group behind them.
"Run!" Daisuke and V-mon said.
Daisuke, V-mon, Mizuri, and Mikemon shot and attacked the zombies and Digimon zombies as the group of survivors ran down the hall.
Yoji was carrying Fukumoto while shooting the zombies and Commandramon gave him cover.
As a zombie and Digimon zombie appeared in front of Hikari, Tailmon, Kali, and Cuulumon, Hikari and Tailmon threw themselves in front of the kids to protect them, but were saved when Mizuri and Mikemon killed the zombie and Digimon zombie.
"Go!" Mizuri and Mikemon said.
"Thanks." Hikari and Tailmon said as they and Kali and Culumon moved on.
Yoji got Fukumoto to safety. He then heard a moan behind him and turned to see a zombie, who instantly dropped them at the sound of a shot. Yoji turned to see Daisuke, and nodded a "thanks".
Yoji and Commandramon continued a zombie and Digimon zombie appeared and bit their arm, causing them to yell in pain.
Yoji took out his pistol and shot the zombie in the head whle Commandramon elbowed the Digimon zombie in the skull.
"He got bit! He damn well got bit!" Fukumoto said.
Daisuke, V-mon, Mizuri, and Mikemon started hearding towards Yoji and Commandramon.
"Stay back." Yoji and Commandramon said, raising their hands, stopping the others. "Go on without me."
"Yoji/Commandramon, wait!" Mizuri and Mikemon said, but were held back by Daisuke and V-mon.
"…Yoji/Commandramon…You got this?" Daisuke and V-mon asked.
Yoji and Commandramon motioned for them to get going.
"Yoji/Commandramon…Yoji/Commandramon! NO! YOJI/COMMANDRAMON! YOJI/COMMANDRAMON!" Mizuri and Mikemon screamed as Daisuke and V-mon grabbed them and pulled them down the hall while Yoji and Commandramon bought them some time, but soon, the fires ceased.
After a while, they arrived at the lobby, where the climbed on the wreckage of the plane.
"You okay?" Hikari asked as she helped the senator unto the wreckage.
"Do I look like I'm okay? !" Fukumoto said before he limped across the wreckage, only to see the dozens of infected below.
"Are we going to make it out of here?" Fukumoto asked.
"We have a clear view and a straight path to the exit We'll take out as many as we can…." Fladramon said as he aimed at one of the Digimon zombies and fired a fireball at him. "and run like hell."
"Mizuri, Mikemon, back us up." Daisuke said.
"Got it."
Daisuke, Fladramon, and Mizuri fired at the zombies and Digimon zombies while Mikemon gave them cover fro behind.
The bodies dropped to the floor soundly to the floor as they were killed.
"Can't you get rid of them any faster?" Fukumoto complained.
"They're starting to gather over here." Tailmon said as she pointed at the zombies gathering on the side of the plane wreckage.
"We're not gonna make it out, are we?" Fukumoto said.
"It's getting tough. We gotta go." Daisuke said as he switched the magazine of his handgun and pulled the slide.
A screamed alarmed the group, who immediately turned to see more zombies coming from inside the plane towards the flight attendant.
Daisuke, a now devolved V-mon, Mizuri, and Mikemon saved her by shooting and attacking the zombies and Digimon zombies. The flight attendant crawled away and Hikari helped the woman up and pushed her behind her.
As Daisuke, V-mon, Mizuri, and Mikemon took care of the infected, Senator Fukumoto saw an opening that was created by the rescue team. He pushed everyone out of his way, making Kali and Culumon to fall from the plane wreckage and onto where the zombies and Digimon zombies were, while Fukumoto ran desperately to the escape.
As Kali and Culumon lifted their heads, they saw several undead before them, and screamed as they closed their eyes.
"Kali/Culumon!"
Hikari and Tailmon leaped from the wreckage of the plane to the ground to protect Kali and Culumon.
Daisuke and V-mon turned at Hikari and Tailmon's direction. Hikari and Tailmon had gone all the way to where Kali and Culumon were and hugged the two close to them as the zombies surrounded them. Daisuke and V-mon ran towards Hikari, Tailmon, Kali, and Culumon, when they heard a moan. Daisuke and V-mon looked up to see a zombie and Digimon zombie jump down at them. Daisuke and V-mon were knocked to the floor and turned their heads aside while holding back the infected.
Upon hearing shots, Daisuke and V-mon looked to the side to see Mizuri and Mikemon fighting off the zombies. Okay, they were holding off their own. Daisuke and V-mon then turned to look at Hikari and Tailmon, who were now more surrounded by zombies and Digimon zombies. They had to find a way to help. Tailmon couldn't take out the Digimon zombies because they were being covered by a zombie.
"Hikari-chan!"
Hikari turned in the direction of Daisuke's voice to see Daisuke throw his handgun at her.
Hikari pushed Kali behind her, kicked the zombie in the temple, grabbed the Silver Ghost, flipped the Silver Ghost in her hand until it was in the right position, and shot the following zombie in the head.
Hikari then turned and shot the other zombies while Tailmon attacked the Digimon zombies. Hikari then raised the gun at the zombie she had kicked to the ground, and shot him.
Daisuke and V-mon then kicked the zombie and Digimon zombie on top of them over them and rose to their feet, and Daisuke pulled out a Glock 30 from within his shoulder holster and shot the zombie while V-mon punched the Digimon zombie, crushing its skull. They then turned towards the Hikari, Tailmon, Kali, and Culumon.
"You alright?" Daisuke and V-mon asked.
"Barely." Hikari and Tailmon replied.
Hikari put the Silver Ghost in her belt and she and Tailmon then kneeled to check on Kali and Culumon.
"Kali/Culumon, are you okay?" Hikari and Tailmon asked.
"Kali/Culumon." The two kids said as they hugged Hikari and Tailmon, who returned the hugs.
"Let's go."
Hikari and Tailmon went back to the plane wreckage. They handed Kali and Culumon to Mizuri and Mikemon, who took the kids.
Hikari and Tailmon then started climbing the wreckage when they looked up to see Daisuke and V-mon, who were offering them a hand. Hikari and Tailmon gladly took it and Daisuke and V-mon helped Hikari and Tailmon up. Hikari and Tailmon then stopped and looked at Daisuke and V-mon, and couldn't believe those hot-headed, knucklehead, hyperactive, reckless boys had grown up into such calm, cool, and collected young men, and smiled.
Kali and Culumon ran to the girls and hugged them, and Hikari and Tailmon placed their hands on the two's heads.
"Thank you." Hikari said as she gave back Daisuke his Silver Ghost.
Hikari and Tailmon then picked up Kali and Culumon and looked around for the man who had caused all this trouble.
"Where's the senator?" Hikari and Tailmon demanded.
(Meanwhile)
Fukumoto limped through the airport until he arrived at the entrance and a light flashed on his face.
"Finally. I'm over here!" Fukumoto said as he walked outside and the marines immediately secured him.
Daisuke and V-mon shot and hit a zombie and Digimon zombie in the head, killing them, opening way for the survivors.
"The light! Run towards the light!" V-mon said as they ran towards the main entrance.
Mizuri and Mikemon looked back as they heard moans and saw a group of zombies gathering at the plane wreckage, and among them, Yoji and Commandramon. They forced themselves to turn around and escape the airport, knowing that their partners were dead.
As the group of survivors walked out into safety, the marines entered the airport and started the extermination. As Mizuri and Mikemon heard shots, they turned and looked back, knowing that Yoji and Commandramon were among those who were being exterminated.
"KALI, CULUMON!"
The group turned to see Aunt being held by two guards behind a chain which separated the outside from the airport.
"AUNT!" Kali and Culumon said as they ran towards their aunt, leaving Hikari and Tailmon's side for the first time since the beginning of this whole disaster, but were held back by a guard.
"Oh my God! You're alright!" Aunt said as she cried of relief.
"I was so scared!" Kali said as tears of fear ran down her face.
"They were everywhere! I didn't think I would see you again!" Culumon cried.
"Oh, my poor darlings!"
Fukumoto then appeared beside a marine with a blanket and a cup of coffee.
"I can't stand kids. They're a real pain in the ass." Fukumoto said.
Hikari and Tailmon overheard what Fukumoto said and walked towards him, and Hikari slapped Fukumoto across the face with such force, it knocked him to the ground.
"Bastard! Those little kids will probably have nightmares for the rest of their lives because of you." Hikari and Tailmon said, before heading towards Kali and Culumon.
"Let me go! Give them to me! Please!" Aunt begged.
"I got it, I got it." Hikari told the guard as she approached the guard who was holding Kali and Culumon, and he left.
"Hikari, Tailmon." Aunt said, thankful that her friends kept her niece and partner safe.
"You two okay?" Tailmon asked Kali and Culumon who nodded.
"Oh, honey, I know. But she's fine, really." Hikari told Aunt. "We just have to wait."
Daisuke and V-mon smiled as they watched Hikari and Tailmon. They hadn't changed at all. Still doing what was right, still protecting the weak and defenseless. The way they interacted with Kali and Culumon brought back memories. It reminded them of their time with Emi and Lopmon.
Daisuke and V-mon then looked at Mizuri and Mikemon. They saw them ball their hands into fists as they looked at the shooting in the airport and knew they were thinking about Yoji and Commandramon. Today, there had been several more victims of bioterrorism, and four of them were from his team. Two from dying at the hands of it, and two more from learning the pain of losing a loved one to it.
(Meanwhile)
"No problem. We'll take care of it." Tadashi said as he spoke to his contact through the phone. "We can use that in the worst-case scenario. We have no intetion of letting WilPharma end up looking like a savior."
