This is the undead writer speaking
if you have not guessed yet who the digidestined who will have a mayor role in this chapter is, look at the title of this chapter. Also the identity of the "dark knight" will be revealed in this chapter and the answer might surpise you.
PrincessOfDestiny14: Good Guess but Willis will not appear in this story (yet anyway).
pokemon fan 1991: Nene already has made several cameos in the story already.
AndreaAras26: Thanks for the feedback and there will be some moments between Takato and Tai in the future (maybe sooner than you think).
BigReader16: yeah last chapter was very fun to write.
chitownmike: Zoe will not appear for a couple more chapters. I also might revive Koichi in the future but it is only maybe. I do have an idea on how to bring him back but i have not decided if I will use it or not.
I do not own Digimon
(Joe)
"Joe I am hungry" Gomamons voice could be heard complaining out of Joe's bag. This got many people's attention who gave Joe strange looks as they passed by.
Joe noticed this and walked as fast as he could away from there and into a large park nearby. It was empty of people so Joe took the chance to scold his bag.
"Gomamon, you nearly gave us away back there" Joe scolded his bag. Gomamons head then popped up out of the bag and chuckled.
"You worry too much Joe. Besides, I need food if we are attacked by an enemy digimon and the food you brought with you has run out already" Gomamon chuckled.
Joe then realized something and looked at Gomamon with an angry expression.
"Don't tell me you ate all the emergency food again Gomamon? It was bad enough when you did it in the digital world all the time but now years later, you are as hopples as ever" Joe sighted angrily but he could not help to let out a small smile as he through back to the good old days.
"If I had changed to become more serious Joe, I would have become a stick in the mud just like you were before. You really were a big scary cat back in the day" Gomamon smiled back.
The park was slowly starting to fill up with schoolchildren and people on their way to work so Joe quickly hid behind a tree so that no one would see them. But Gomamon continued talking anyway.
"But look at you now Joe. You don't get too frightened anymore and have grown to become a very reliable person. Tai even jokes about it calling you "old reliable Joe"." Gomamon continued and Joe nodded his head in agreement.
It was true. He really had been a scary cat when he had first entered the digital world. He had worried about everything as he had seen himself as the one to look out for the others because he was the oldest.
But he had changed since then. He had stopped worrying about everything and also stopped being a stick in the mid like Gomamon had described him as just now. He had several times done stupid things like jumping on Unimons back to remove the black gear and tackle Veggiemon to the ground to rescue TK that got him in trouble several times. Every time the others had been in danger, they knew that Joe would do everything he could to help by either making dumb dangerous choices or using his medical skill. Tai and the others did not call "Old Reliable Joe" for nothing.
"Yeah Yeah I get your point already Gomamon" Joe said and Gomamon stopped talking and disapered into the bag again.
Joe then looked at his watch and saw to his horror that if he did not hurry up, he would get late for his test on different kinds of medicines. Joe quickly ran out of the park and soon enough he arrived at the gates of the medic school he was attending. He quickly left Gomamon outside in the bushes before running as fast as he could inside.
(Gomamon)
Just as Joe disappeared from Gomamons view and went into the school building, the clock rang.
"Your commitment to your studies has not changed. You are still a stick in the mud in that regard Joe" Gomamon chuckled before he crawled to the spot where he usually rested when Joe was in school.
But something caught the rookie digimon eyes. His eyes just caught it for only a small moment before it disappeared from his view. He had not gotten a good look at it but what he had seen had the appearance of a knight and it had been heading for the school. Gomamon got a bad feeling about this and felt like whatever he had seen would attack Joe. With all the attacks and strange things that had been happening lately, this was no strange guess on Gomamons part.
"Just when I were going to take a nice long nap, something bad comes up" Gomamon complained as he ran out of the bushes towards the main entrance door to the school. Unfortunately, having very short legs when you are in a hurry does not help that much. Gomamon knew this as he ran as fast as he could with his short legs toward the doors hoping to get to Joe before the knight did.
(Joe)
The test had started and luckily Joe managed to get just in time into the classroom as the teacher started to give out the tests.
Even luckier, Joe knew most of the answers and did not find it that hard. He would probably have gotten a high grade if something had not interrupted the test before it finished.
A large crash could be heard outside the building ceasing all activity in the room including Joe. Then the wall exploded sending debris everywhere. Students got up from their seats screaming in horror as they ran out of the classroom. The teacher also ran out not caring about the student's safety or all the school furniture that got destroyed.
Unfortunately for Joe, a large piece debris fell on him in the explosion sticking him to the floor unable to get if off.
"For once I wish I was more athletic" Joe complained he tried to get the large piece of debris of him but it was just too heavy for him to lift.
Through the large hole in the wall, Joe saw the silhouette of something entering the room. He had a hard time seeing it because of all the debris in the way but he saw that it was holding a large round shield with some kind of marking in its left arm and a lance in its right arm.
The figure raised his shield and pointed it towards where Joe was still stuck on the floor beneath the debris.
"Why do this always happen to me?" Joe complained as he used the last of his strength for a last attempt to get loose.
The figures shield started to glow with power just as Joe actually managed to get debris of him and get out of the way just as it released a powerful beam of energy at him.
"Shield Of The Just"
Joe managed to avoid it in the last second by throwing himself on the floor causing the attack to go over him and hit the wall behind him causing it to fall down. Joe could hear the screams of the students as they almost got crushed by the falling wall on the other side.
It was evident that the figure was after him and only him so Joe knew he had get away from the school so no one else would get hurt.
As Joe got himself up from the floor and got a good view of the mysterious figure, his jaw literary dropped in surprise.
-Flashback begins-
"Human and Digimon digivolving together? What a bad joke. Even I know better ones" Gomamon chuckled at Takatos, Rika, and Henrys explanation of biomerging.
Joe only looked at the 3 with skepticism. Having humans turn into digimon was weird enough but humans and digimon digivolving together was even weirder. But much stranger things had happened to him the last few years so Joe believed them.
But Gomamon did not.
"I am not going to believe you until you show me some proof" Gomamon continued annoying Rika to the point that Joe though she would strangle his digimon partner. Henry only sighted and compared Gomamon to Terriermon. Takato however decided that he had enough with explaining it to them using words.
"Maybe it is better if I show you instead of explaining it" Takato said and with that his D-Power began to shine.
BIOMERGE DIGIVOLUTION
Takato and Guimon biomerge to Galantmon
Gomamon jaw opened wide at this. In front of him and Joe was the majestic knight digimon Galantmon. Joe could not help but look shocked as well.
Rika chuckeled when she saw their dumbstruck faces and Galantmon let out a small chuckle as well.
-Flashback ends-
In front of him standing by the large wall it had created in the wall was Galantmon.
"Takato is that you?" Joe shouted but Galantmon remained quiet but after a while he started to laugh and it was a laugh so malicious that Joe felt himself shudder in fear.
There was no way that is Takato. But yet he is standing in front of me. Could that blob have taken over him like the others but his eyes are not blood red? Joe's thoughts were disrupted as Galantmon charged at him.
"Lightning Joust"
Galantmons spear began glowing blue with electricity as he tried to stab Joe with it but Joe once again managed to avoid it by ducking at the last second and instead the large lance got stuck in the wall. Joe saw this as an opportunity to get away from there as fast as he could.
Seeing as the door was blocked, Joe jumped out of the hole in the wall and onto the ground outside.
He was about to leave to find Gomamon when he saw someone that needed his help. It was a student which had just entered the school a few weeks ago and had a hard time getting adapted to the school. Joe being the responsible and reliable person that he was had helped him do just that and now he was at top of his class.
He had been just below when Galantmon smashed the wall from the outside and was covered in large pieces of debris that had fallen down.
Joe could just leave him there and go find Gomamon but he did not. Instead of running away, he ran towards all the debris and started to get it off the injured person below it.
"I hope that Galantmon is still not too upset about me getting him stuck in the wall." Joe said as he tried to lift the very heavy debris. But just after he had said that, Galantmon could be seen jumping out of the hole in the wall ready to attack Joe once again.
"Lightning Joust"
"Not Again" Joe said as he once again avoided the attack by jumping to the side. Galantmons lance instead pierced through several of the debris freeing the student from his stone prison. Luckily he was not to hurt and was unconscious for now.
"I never knew I had so fast reflexes. Have to thank Tai for forcing me to take some gym lessons after this" Joe said. He was exhausted. He would probably not be able to avoid Galantmon much longer.
DIGIVOLUTION
Gomamon digivolve to Ikkakumon
Ikkakumon digivolve to Zudomon
"Vulcans Hammer"
Suddenly out of the bushes came Zudomon, Gomamon ultimate level, and smashed his chrome Digizoid hammer into the ground sending a large spark of thunder at Galantmon. This distracted Galantmon for a moment and Joe used it to get to where Zudomon was standing.
"Shield of The Just"
Galantmon easily destroyed Zudomons attack with another powerful beam generated from his shield.
"Joe get out of here to safety. I will take care of Tin man over here" Zudomon said to Joe. Joe nodded and then ran out of the school grounds as fast as he could.
He had to tell Tai what had happened. But Tai would defiantly not like these news.
(Zudomon)
"Vulcans Hammer"
"Lightning Joust"
Zudmomon smashed his hammer into the ground and sent another thunder spark at Galantmon but he easily dodged it and charged Zudomon with his lance. But Zudomon managed to block the lance with his hammer before trying to punch Galantmon with his massive claws. But Galantmon used his shield to block it before doing a backwards jump flip to get out of Zudomons reach.
"Shield of The Just"
Galantmon released his signature attack at Zudomon which Zudomon managed to block with his hammer. But the attack was powerful enough to knock it out of his hands. The hammer landed several meters away from Zudomon.
Galantmon let out a small evil laugh as if he already had won the battle. He had not won yet but Zudomon knew it was only a matter of seconds before he would. Galantmon was a mega after all and he was just an ultimate. Zudomon was also too big to be able to dodge another "shield of the just" attack.
But Zudomon were not going to give up that easily. He may not win the battle but he could give Joe enough time to get away.
"Hey Tinhead. Over here. Have you heard the one about the knight that tried to save the princess and got bitch slapped in return? You kind of look like that knight " Zudomon taunted the knight digimon and it worked. Galantmon charged at him with his lance.
"Lightning Joust"
But Zudomon had anticipated this and jumped into the air just as Galantmon charged at him causing the knight to get his lance stuck again but this time in a tree. Zudomon then body slammed Galantmon down into the ground with all his weight.
Before Galantmon could react, Zudomon got off him and lifted him up and then threw him across the school field right into a large tree at the other side. The impact with the tree caused it to fall to the ground right on top of Galantmon.
"Vulcans Hammer"
Not wasting any time, Zudomon made a run to get his hammer. He picked it up and smashed it into the ground sending another thunder spark at Galantmon. This time it hit Galantmon sending him flying right into a metal fence where he remained very still for a few minutes.
"That was much easier than I expected" Zudomon said a little surprised but he did not let his guard down.
Zudomon waited for Galantmon to stand up and attack but he did not. Zudomon was also a little distracted by all the camera flashes coming out of school windows. It seemed the battle had caught every single student attention.
Being the glory hog he was, he gave them a large smile but most people backed away when they saw his 2 long and sharp walrus teeth.
After a while, Galantmon got himself off the fence and stood up relatively unharmed and gave Zudomon an evil stare.
"Lightning Joust"
Galantmon once again charged towards Zudomon. Zudomon prepared to defend with his hammer again but Galantmon high jumped over him and thrust his lance into Zudomons back. Luckily, Zudomon shell on his back took most of the blow.
"Vulcans hammer"
Zudomon turned around and hit Galantmon with his hammer but Galantmon easily jumped out the way.
"Shield of The Just"
While still in the air, Galantmons shield generated another beam at Zudomon who had no time to avoid it. The attack blasted Zudomon down to the ground creating a small crater.
Before Zudomon could get up, Galantmon lift him up by his tail without any problems. He then threw the sea animal digimon high into the air.
"Shield of The Just"
Galantmon beam attack then hit Zudomon sending him even higher into the air. Zudomon could not even see the ground anymore. He could feel his power weakening and draining away and soon enough he devolved back to Gomamon.
"If it is not a problem COULD ANYOONNNE HEEELLPP MEEEEE IFFFF YOOU DOONNT WANT A DIIIGGIMOOON FAAAALLINNG OONN YOOOUUUR HEEEAADDSS" Gomamon screamed as he fell toward the ground through the air. Even when falling to his death, Gomamon could not resist saying a wisecrack
"Need a lift?" A voice said and in the next moment, Gomamon felt himself landing on something.
"Now you get here. Where were you when I was about to become a Zudomon cheese? Maybe you were flirting with your lady friend over there perhaps." Gomamon wise cracked when he saw who had caught him.
It was ShineGreymon who had caught him in the palm of his hand. ShineGreymon could not help but to laugh as Marcus began to pout where he sat on ShineGreymons shoulder.
"He got you there boss." ShineGreymon chuckled.
"Shut up already. You are even worse than Terriermon" Marcus pouted.
Behind ShineGreymon, Yoshi was blushing furiously where she was held in Rosemons arms while Thomas and Keenan let out a small laugh where they sat on MirageGaogamon and Ravemons shoulders respectively.
(Joe)
"How do I get into situations like this?" Joe complained as he ran as fast as he could away from the quickly approaching Galantmon. It seemed like Zudomon had not managed to keep him occupied for long. He could hear the knight digimons footsteps approaching him fast from behind but since Joe knew most of the area and all the shortcuts, he managed to keep out of Galantmons grasp.
People were just looking up at Galantmon with a mix of fear and curiosity at the streets. But since it just ignored them and did not seem like a threat, no one ran away and just stood still dumbfounded of what they saw. They however failed to notice Joe running for his life past them
"Shield of The Just"
"Uh Oh" Joe sweat dropped as he saw Galantmons shield release a large beam attack at him. As it pierced through several cars which exploded on impact, the people around them finally realized the danger they were in and ran away as fast as they could from there.
There was an alleyway right beside him and Joe could easily get in there before the beam hit him. But Joe did not and continued on his way. Something had caught his attention.
Right in front of him on the street was a young boy about 6 years old trembling in fear standing in the middle of the street. He was so afraid that he could not move as the beam attack destroyed everything in its path heading towards him.
Joe decided to do something very stupid at that moment. As the attack was almost upon him, Joe jumped and pushed the young boy out the way taking the full attack instead.
"This is the dumbest thing I have done yet" was Joe's last world before everything went black.
(Marcus)
"Glorious Burst"
"Forbidden Temptation"
"Full Moon Blaster"
"Celestial Blade"
ShineGreymon, Rosemon, MirageGaogamon, and Ravemon released all of their strongest attacks at the Galantmon below them. The Galantmon did not notice them until it was too late as he was more focused on the fallen Joe. He avoided the first attack but was hit by the other 3 sliding him across the street causing serious damage to the area around him.
"It is fighting time." Marcus shouted as he jumped off ShineGreymons back towards where Galantmon was getting up from the ground. The punch caught him of guard sending Galantmon flying inside an alleyway.
"That's what you get for attacking my friends" Marcus smiled as he landed on the ground. ShineGreymon, Rosemon, MirageGaogamon, and Ravemon landed behind him. Yoshi, Thomas, and Keenan together with Gomamon got of their digimons back and joined Marcus where he stood outside the alleyway.
Marcus prepared himself to punch Galantmon yet again when he came out but to his surprise, Galantmon was nowhere to be seen. There was no single trace left of him to be seen.
"Huh? Where did he go? I defiantly saw him here just a second ago"
Marcus searched through every single inch of the alleyway but he found nothing that could have indicated that Galantmon had been there only a few moments ago.
"That coward must have fled. What a bummer." Marcus sighted as he finally stopped his search and walked out of the alleyway disappointed.
"JOE" Marcus heard Gomamons horrified scream and looked in that direction and saw the rookie digimon standing beside his fallen partner. Marcus almost vomited in disgust as he saw the injured person in front of him.
Joe was a bloody mess where he was laying on the floor. His body was covered in bruises and he was as pale as a ghost. His left leg was bent in a very disturbing way. Blood was leaking out of a large wound in his stomach.
"He needs medical attention right now. We have to get him to a hospital right now or he won't make it." Thomas said as he lifted Joe's unconscious body over his shoulder.
"Hurry up Marcus. We have to go now or he will die and soon enough this place will be crowded with people." Yoshi shouted as she, Keenan, and Thomas all hurried up onto their partners shoulders and left the ground.
"HEY Wait for me."
Marcus quickly picked up Gomamon to the rookies protest and got up on ShineGreymon shoulder and soon enough they were flying through the air only a few feet behind MirageGaogamon, Rosemon, and Ravemon.
(Tai)
Tai opened the door to the operating room and saw Joe laying in one of the beds connected to a life support machine. He was covered in bandages but the blood could still be seen through them. Tai almost puked seeing his friend like just like Marcus almost had done before.
Beside the bed was Thomas, Marcus, Yoshi, Keenan, and their digimon partners. The digimon did not even attempt to hide as Tai walked in since the hospital was owned by DATS and was often used to treat injured agents. Gomamon was sitting in a corner completely quiet. He did not even attempt any wisecracks as Tai entered.
Matt, Agumon, and Gabumon were the next people to enter the room after Tai. When they saw Joe, their faces got a very shocked expression.
"What happened?" Tai asked as he stood beside Joe's hospital bed.
"I don't really know. One second we are on our way back to my house after a metting with hypnos, the next we save Gomamon from falling to his death and he tells us of a Galantmon who attacked him and Joe" Marcus explained.
"Galantmon? So Takato is behind this? That can't be right." Tai exclaimed.
"I agree with you. Takato is way too shy and nice to have done something like this." Marcus agreed with him.
"I asked Kudamon to contact the royal knights in drasils digital world about if their Galantmon has been acting suspiciously lately but they say he has been with them for the whole day stopping a clash between some Frigimon and Mojamons." Thomas said getting Tais and Marcus attention.
"But if it is not your cousin Tai or that other Galantmon, who could it be?" Matt said thinking out loud.
"Stop worrying about who it is for now. We got to find a way to help Joe" Gomamon suddenly screamed interrupting the human's conversation.
"They are doing everything they can."
"Don't worry Gomamon. Joe will be okay"
Agumon and Gabumon walked over to Gomamon trying to cheer him up. But Gomamon looked even more devastated then before.
"We should go and talk to Takato about this. Even if he is not responsible, he may know something about it" Yoshi said to the others which everyone nodded in agreement at except for Tai who looked away with a frown on his face instead.
"That may not be necessary Yoshi. I may have a plan to find out who it is" Thomas interrupted making him the center of attention in the room.
"Sir What do you have on your mind?" Gaomon asked
As Thomas told them his plan, Tai had to agree that it was a good plan even though he heard Marcus and Agumon groan in disappointment.
"Keenan you know what you have to do"
"Me ready. Good plan" Keenan said. Tai got confused by how limited his vocabulary was.
"Stop talking cave man already. Did your parents not spend a lot on money for you to learn how to actually speak?" Marcus exclaimed annoyed.
Keenan just shrugged and ran out of the operating room.
"Keenan wait up" Falcomon shouted after him as he flew after him.
(Unknown)
Something was observing the DATS hospital from affar seeing everything that went in and out. It was as if he was looking for something in particular.
At last it had seemed like it had found its target. An ambulance stopped right in front of the main entrance of the hospital. 2 people dressed as doctors bore out someone covered in sheets into the ambulance. A few moments after, the ambulance left with it following.
The ambulance drove out of the city and right into the woods. If the pursuer had thought about it, he would have found this suspicious but it was only focused on its target it thought was in the ambulance.
As it began to darken around them, It saw its chance to strike.
"Shield of The Just"
The attack hit the ambulance wheels causing it to crash into a large tree. It approached the crashed vehicle and opened the back door expecting to find his injured target and finish him off. But instead, it found an angry Peckmon waiting for him.
"Spiral Claw"
It had no time to react as it gave him a powerful kick which hit him down to the ground. It had not hurt but now it was mad.
"Shield of The Ju…."
"Terra Force"
"Metal Wolf Claw"
But it had no time to attack the champion as WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon with their human partners on the backs suddenly appeared and attacked canceling its attack.
"Get him before he has a chance to counter attack." The blond boy on MetalGarurumons back shouted and soon enough both megas were over him holding its arm and legs preventing any movement.
"Kunai Wing"
Peckmon jumped out of the ambulance released a swarm of sharp feathers at it knocking it out for a moment.
(Keenan)
"Keenan now" Peckmon shouted and Keenan came charging out from under the pile of sheats where he had been hiding with what looked like a large syringe. He quickly injected it into Galantmon. It went straight through Galantmons armor and the knight let out a terrible scream of pain. In shock, WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon lost their grip giving Galantmon a chance to escape. He threw Keenan, WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon of him like as if they were nothing.
"Keenan are you all right?" Peckmon said as he helped Keenan up.
"Me fine. I got it. Let's finish him" Keenan replied holding up the syringe which was now full with some kind of data.
"Lightning Joust"
Keenan and Peckmon easily avoided Galantmons attack by doing a backflip over him.
"Kunai Wing"
Peckmon released another swarm of sharp feathers at it while Keenan threw his boomerang but Galantmon easily deflected the attack with his shield while the boomerang just bounced of its armor and flew back into Keenan's hand.
DNA FULL CHARGE
Peckmon warp digivolve to Crowmon
Keenan quickly used his DNA charge to evolve Peckmon to Crowmon while in the air and landed on its back.
"Savage Emperor"
"Terra Force"
"Metal Wolf Claw"
Crowmon, WarGreymon, and MetalGarurumon released a swarm of attacks at Galantmon who managed to defend himself from most of them using his shield but Keenan threw his Boomerang one more time and this time it hit Galantmon in the head angering it.
"Lightning Joust"
Galantmon high jumped into the air towards Keenan and Crowmon with his lance.
Keenan saw this and smiled before he whispered something into Crowmons ear. Crowmon gave him a quick nod in return before diving downward through the air towards the approaching Galantmon.
"Savage Emperor"
As Crowmon charged downwards, he released his signature attack at Galantmon who quickly deflected it with his shield before lunging at him with his lance. But Crowmon avoided it just as it was about to stab him leaving Galantmon completely defenseless in the air.
"Metal Wolf Snout"
MetalGarurumons attack hit Galantmon in the back sending him down to the ground.
"Mega Claw"
Just as Galantmon hit the ground, WarGreymon arrived above it and slammed his dramon destroyer gauntlets into Galantmon creating a large shockwave when it hit the ground.
"He defeated. We win" Keenan shouted victoriously. Keenan could not help but to snicker at the thought of having badly beaten one of the tamers. He still did not trust them but respected Sampson's choice to trust them nevertheless.
But Galantmon was not yet defeated. He got himself of the ground and managed to grab WarGreymon by the neck and threw him at MetalGarurumon causing both to crash to the ground. Galantmon then made a run for it.
"He getting away" Keenan shouted.
But Galantmon did not get far as both WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon got of each other and began pursuing him from above.
"WarGreymon don't let him get away"
"Attack MetalGarurumon. Make him pay for what he has done"
"Terra Force"
"Metal Wolf Claw"
Both attacks hit the fleeing Galantmon at the same time causing a large explosion. Keenan and the others expected to find a very injured Galantmon when the explosion subsided but instead they found nothing. Galantmon was nowhere to be seen.
"Darn it He escaped" Matt cursed but a small smile appeared on his face.
Crowmon along with WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon landed among the trees and Keenan and the other 2 boys jumped of their partner's backs.
"Keenan did you get the sample" Tai asked. Keenan nodded and took out the syringe of his pocket and showed it to Tai and Matt.
"Yes got him" keenan said with a smile as a flow of data could be seen flowing inside the syringe.
(Unknown)
The operating room was as dark as night and Joe was almost completely invisible in the darkness. It had been hours since Tai, Matt, and Keenan left to set the trap for the Galantmon. The last doctor to have checked his status had also been a few hours ago.
Gomamon was asleep beside Joe's bed. He refused to leave Joes side even for a minute.
Marcus and Yoshi were outside the room sitting in a large sofa guarding the injured Joe. But both of them had fallen asleep and without them noticing they had fallen asleep on top of each other. Doctors passing by gave them a weird look. Agumon and Lalamon were asleep as well inside their partner's digivices.
Thomas had left to contact Sampson and tell everyone else what had happened. Several people had visited the unconscious Joe throughout the day. Some like Izzy, Mimi, Cody, and Kazu had stayed at his side longer than others.
But now it was evening and the whole building was dark. The only thing that could be heard Marcus snoring and the night guards steps echoing throughout the building.
Suddenly something opened the door of the operating room and entered. Gomamon did not hear as the door opened and something began to move towards the unconscious Joe.
It was too dark to see what it was as it approached Joe but it was clear that it was a female human.
It soon stood tall over Joe looking down at him with an expression that could not be seen in the dark. It reached down and touched Joe with some kind of device. At touch, a green light flashed through the room and woke Gomamon up from his sleep. But as he opened his eyes, Joe was nowhere to be seen as well as the mysterious figure.
(Henry)
"No Tai I have not seen Takato today. I have been home studying and doing my homework. I could try to... I have to put down the phone now. My dad is coming. He still don't know the recent attacks and I prefer that he does not get to know about it"
Henry said the last part with a very bitter tone.
(Rika)
"What trouble has that goggle head gotten into this time? It's not like I care about him or anything but what kind of a mess has he got involved in this time?"
(Takuya)
"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZ"
(Koji)
"I have no idea where Takato is. Ask Takuya but he is probably still asleep after having spent the whole night looking for Zoe so good luck trying to wake him up. If he does not answer, try calling Takatos parents. They may know where he is"
(Takatos Mother)
"Takato has not been home today. He left early in the morning. He said he was going to spend the whole day with Kazu."
(Kazu)
"I don't know what you are talking about. I have not seen Takato all day. I thought he was with Rika and Henry today."
(Tai)
After having done several phone calls, Tai put back his cellphone in his pocket and faced Keenan and Matt with a sad expression. They now knew who the culprit was.
All the evidence pointed towards one person in particular. One who had no alibi and who's DNA was mixed with the flow of data present in the syringe.
Matt was about to say something when Tai interrupted him.
"I will go and talk to him. He is my cousin after all." Tai said
Keenan was about to protest but Matt silenced him by shaking his head. Of all the digidestined, Matt knew Tai the best.
"Take MetalGarurumon with you. I have a feeling that Omnimon will be needed." Matt said and Tai gave him a sad smile in return
DNA DIGIVOLUTION
WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon DNA digivolve to Omnimon
Tai climbed up on Omnimons back and right after he did that, Omnimon levitated up into the air and flew away at high speed away from the area. Matt, Keenan, and Crowmons figures soon disappeared from Tais sight.
Takato was his cousin so if anyone were going to deal with him, it should be Tai. He may not have seen Takato for several years or talked to him that much since all the attacks started a few weeks ago but if Takato now had become a bad guy, Tai felts responsible for it.
Tai and Omnimon soon arrived above the park where Guilmons hideout was located. Takato had to be down there somewhere in the park. But it was too dark to see anything because of how dark it was outside
"Shield of the Just"
An attack suddenly flew out from behind a tree at Omnimon. But Tai and Omnimon were expecting this kind of welcome.
"Supreme Cannon"
Omnimon counter attacked with his signature attack and the 2 attacks clashed in the air exploding at impact.
Omnimon landed on the ground and Tai could now see who the attacker was. It was Galantmon
"Lightning Joust"
"Transcendent Sword"
Whoa. 2 royal knight are about to go mortal kombat on each other. AWESOME. Too bad you have to wait for the next episode of Digimon: Digital Monsters to see it.
That is another chapter complete
Many of you are probably wondering why Takato have gone rough. Well the answer is simple but you have to wait for the chapter to find out. I have also decided not to put this story on hiatus for now. If I did, I would put this story on a big cliffhanger and you would probably not like that. I will try to have the next chapter out before the end of the year but i cant promise that it will happen because of my schoolwork.
NEXT CHAPTER: ROYAL KNIGHT RUMBLE
This is the undead writer signing off for now
