Chapter 35: A Forgotten World

Corruption Myotismon's Pov:

I sit in my throne, rolling a chalice of blood on my hand. Valtepesmon appears before my throne and bows, "My lord Corruption Myotismon, I have news on the boy." I shift in my seat setting the chalice aside, "Please go on." "He had been captured, and taken to the Varia Fortress digizone." I raise my right eyebrow, "Had been?" Valtepesmon nods, "Yes my lord he managed to escape his cell and free the other tamers that were being held there before escaping with a recovery team he met on the way out."

I smile, "Marvelous." Valtepesmon looks up, "Excuse me my lord?" "It would seem that my plan is going better than expected. Soon enough all will be in place and the digital world will be mind for the taking." Valtepesmon smiles, "Of course my lord." "You may go now." He nods and vanishes. Usurpremon strides through the door of my throne room moments later and curtseys, "My lord the program is finished." I smile, "Good, make sure it gets where it should." "And the Datamon my lord."

"Dispose of them, save one I might need one for later." She curtseys again and leaves. "Now, let the next round begin." I laugh to myself.

Christian's Pov:

They once again forced me to take time off after that last mission, although I didn't go down easily. It took my team outright refusing to let me leave Shine City, and threatening to knock me out to make me agree. Gatomon, and Angel even forced me to stay in bed for a few days before I was allowed to walk or leave the tamer home on my own. "Guys I'm heading out to get some air." I step on the digigate which starts up like usual, but part way through something odd happens. My vision blurs color fading I feel a sharp pain as I go tumbling into the digital highway.

I slowly wake up, I see a series of red clad digimon around me that I've never seen before. One looks to another and speaks in a language I can't understand, "I'm sorry what are you saying?" One walks towards me and puts a hand on my head flames lighting, I jump back from the sudden pain. The one who touched me speaks his voice dignified and calm, "Can you understand us now?" I nod, "Yes I can." He creates a fire ball in his hand and aims it at me, "Then tell me why are you here spy?"

"Wait, a spy? What are you talking about?" The fire ball gets bigger, "Don't lie! Only the Earthlins can create constructs that are so life like!" He steps forward, "Enough lying! Magic Ignite!" He shoots the fire ball at me. My instincts kick in and I make a slashing motion and yell, "Digiequip!" I knock it away my sword appearing in my hand. I quickly get back up, "Now where the hell am I, and who are you?" He backs away a bit flinching, "Wait, you really don't know?"

I put my sword down, "No I have no clue what this place is, or who you are, and more than that who the Earthlins are." The Digimon has a sheepish smile on his face, and rubs the back of his head, "My apologies. You are in Witchelny, and currently the Earthlin are trying to take over this world." He looks at the ground clenching his fists, "We… We are the only tribe that has yet to bow to them. They have constantly attacked us, it has made us distrustful of those no in our tribe." I spin the sword in my hand and gesture as if sheathing it and it vanishes, "I see. If you don't mind I would like to hear more about this situation."

The red clad digimon looks at me and nods, "We will take you back to our village." He gestures for me to follow, and the others make a formation around me as I follow. I look at them through my goggles trying to figure out their identity, but it comes up with nothing. "Out of curiosity, who are you digimon?" The one who I had been talking to talks over his shoulder, "We are Flawizardmon, I however go by the name Cain." I raise my right eyebrow, "Why do you go by that name, if I may be so bold?"

"Because we believe that names give us a soul, and in turn makes us more powerful. Also it makes dating much easier." I chuckle, "I see… Wait! Was there anyone else near me when you found me?" He looks back, "No you were alone. Why do you ask" "Because it means after I get home, I am going to be locked away for ages." He turns his head to look at me, "Are you a fugitive?" I shake my head, and he gives me a confused look, "Then why would you be locked away."

I sigh, "Never mind." I put my hands in my pockets and look around, "So how much longer until we reach the village?" He says nothing and suddenly stops when we reach the top of a nearby hill, "We have arrived." I walk up next to him, and look out to the horizon seeing a large walled village. The huts are well built, made of stone bricks. It was impressive considering what I have seen in this world so far, aka that one field. "It's a nice place." Cain turns to me, "Come he will want to meet you."

"He? Who is he?" He looks at me shocked, "Have you not heard of the Whirlwind General?" I shake my head, "No I'm sorry but I haven't." He leads me through town. The main street reminds me a lot of the local market festival that was held in Union City. I smile as some young Digimon run past. Cain looks at me and smiles himself although he tries to hide it. He brings me to a guild hall like building. He stops at the door, "You should prepare yourself." He opens the door and gestures me in.

I walk in and a sudden attack comes from the other end of the building aiming for my head. My body reacts a second after I notice and I narrowly dodge, "What the hell was that for!?" Cain walks forward, "Whirlwind General. So you did get the message about the stranger." The smoke clears and I see an odd looking Digimon that looks like a variation of Gallantmon, "Indeed I did thank you Cain." He turns to me, "I am sorry for my abrupt attack, but when I heard you were able to block Cain's attack from near point blank I wanted to test your abilities."

I sigh, "Next time can't you say hello, and introduce yourself first?" He laughs, "Of course, of course. I am the Whirlwind General, MedievalDukemon." I sigh, "It's a pleasure to meet you, I am Christian Narukami. I'm a tamer from Union City." He looks at me quizzically, "Union City?" My eyes narrow slightly, "Cain called this place Witchelny I believe. So tell me have you ever seen anyone like me before?" He shakes his head. "Well then we have a lot to discuss."

An explosion rings out through the air.

…'s Pov:

"Yggdrasil. I wonder if you had not planned all of this from the beginning." I run a hand through my hair and smirk, "If that's the case then you are a cruel god."
