Here is Chapter 36. The Siege of Odaiba begins!

Shoutout to MadDogLucario96 and God of the Challenge for their reviews.

During the parts with the Bakemon, I'd suggest you listen to Glenn Frey's 'Flip City' from Ghostbusters II (which I really love, despite most people calling me a fool for that) during those parts. It just makes it better, well, to me at least.
Cop 1: "Was this a big dinosaur or a little dinosaur? Ah, a skeleton. Which way was it headed?"
Cop 2: "Wait a second. What was chasing you in the park? The park bench was chasing you? I see."
Cop 3: "What? Wait a second. Lieutenant! I think you'd better talk to this guy."
Lieutenant: "I'm busy here!"
Cop 3: "It's some dock supervisor down at Pier 34."
Lieutenant: "What's the problem?!"
Cop 3: "He says the Titanic just arrived!"
*Cuts to Pier 34 where the wreck of the Titanic shows up and it's ghostly victims are finally getting off.*
Cheech Marin: "Well, better late than never."

Anyways, let us begin with unleashing hell on the unsuspecting district...

Chapter 36: The Fairy of Odaiba! Lilimon Blooms!

Odaiba District, Minato Ward, Tokyo, Japan. August 2nd, 1999. 2101 Hours.

It had been a very long day for Tachikawa Keisuke. The Nashville born man had to stay very late for his office work and the gathering fog was also making things more difficult for the rail system coming into Odaiba. He looked at his watch once more and sighed.
"Oh man…" He muttered to himself.
"Excuse us for interrupting your travel plans, but this train will be slowing down due to heavy fog." The intercom voice said. Keisuke just sighed once more.

At the same time, little did anyone in the district know what horrors were soon to be unleashed. Vamdemon after escaping from the Chosen Child with Tailmon in tow, moved to place himself on top of the Fuji TV building and begun to wave his hands. He was creating a powerful fog bank that would cut off Odaiba from the outside world. He knew the ninth child was somewhere inside, so he was going to make sure the child could not escape.
"Soon this barrier of fog will be completed. Then this land will transform into the underworld." He laughed.

P.O.V. – Mimi Tachikawa

I was sitting outside the apartment in the nearby garden with Palmon who had put her vines in the ground and was trying to drink the ground for its nutrients like the plant creature she was. However, it didn't sound like she was enjoying it.
"Tokyo's soil doesn't taste very good." She admitted.
"Hey, did you know? This place used to be a part of the sea until recently." I smiled at her when I gave that fact before handing her the water bottle in my hand. "You can have this." I opened it and started pouring it on her vines.
"Thank you." I suddenly began to hear footsteps approaching and looked up to see Dad walking towards us. I quickly threw a yellow sheet I brought and covered up Palmon to keep Dad from seeing her.
"Shhhh! Quiet!" I told her. Dad was only a few feet away before he got a better look at me.
"Huh? Mimi! Is that you, Mimi?"
"Papa!" I cried as I finally got Palmon to stop moving.
"What are you doing out here at this hour?"
"Nothing in particular! I'm just here to pick you up!" I got up and picked up Patamon before walking home with Dad. "You came home late today."
"The train took its time because of this fog. Hey, I've been wondering, what's inside that blanket?" I quickly grabbed him and started moving faster just to avoid that question.
"Let's hurry home, Papa! Mama is worried!"
"Okay."

We finally got home a few minutes later and my Mom, Satoe, was already waiting for us at the door with dinner for Dad as we had eaten earlier.
"Welcome home!" She said as cheerful as she ever was. I took Palmon into my room while Dad got to eating.
"I'm sorry." I apologized as Palmon found her way out of my hat and sheet. "It'd be nice if you got away with pretending to be a stuffed animal, but I don't want them to think I have horrible taste."
"Horrible taste? You mean me…?" Oh, shoot, why did I say that?
"Don't think too much into it!" I tried to walk back on that comment.
"I made kimchee fried rice and topped it with whipped cream and strawberries." I heard Mom explain to Dad about what he was eating in the living room. "How is it?"
"It's lovely! This tastes really good!"
"Thank goodness! Eat as much as you want! Say 'Ahh!'" I had to chuckle, I don't think I've ever once heard my parents ever argue. It feels like their honeymoon never ended.

I was back across the bridge at the cram school where I was going over to pick up a grade on a test I took a few days before camp, and before this whole Digimon thing started. My heart sank when I saw the grade I got.
"A fifty-four. This is the worst grade I've ever gotten in my life."
"Cheer up!" Gomamon said as he popped his head out of my duffle bag. "Life is full of ups and downs!"
"I should call home to tell them I'm being kept after classes today." I referred to my parents. I dialed the number to the house on my cell phone but got a strange answer.
"The number you've dialed is not in any available service areas."
"That's odd." I muttered. "There's no reception."

P.O.V. – Yamato Ishida

Static on every channel. I was sitting around the apartment while none of the channels worked.
"No! C'mon, work!" I shouted at the TV. I tried different positions to try to get it to work but nothing was happening. "Aw man… It was just getting good!" This could mean only one thing however. It means Dad is going to be staying really late tonight.

Ishida Hiroaki was getting some change back for the soft drink he purchased at the vending machine. Hiroaki worked at the Fuji TV building and was once again working another late night shift. He put the change back in his wallet when he stopped and looked at an old family photo he still kept. It was taken in the mountains back when he was still married to Natsuko and their family was still together. He often wondered why he still had it; maybe it was a reminder of better times? He sighed before he took a sip of his drink before he saw one of his co-workers run by.

"What's up, Chioka?"
"You were awake, Ishida-san? We've got huge trouble! None of our station's transmissions are working!"
"What?"
"No one knows what's causing it! It could be a system crash or something faulty in electronical devices. Both transmissions and reception are down!"

The cause of this was because of the fog barrier that Vamdemon was putting up. He didn't want the ninth child escaping from Odaiba, as he was already handling that aspect of keeping the population in or out. He also didn't want anyone inside to contact the outside world and was making sure that all communications were down, hence why he was on the Fuji TV building.
"No one will escape. And that includes, of course, the ninth child!" He sadistically laughed to the heavens.

"Due to heavy fog in Odaiba, we will not be able to provide any train service to that area. It may take some time before service is brought back to normal." The intercom in the train station informed. I tried to use a phone booth to call home but that wasn't working either. All it did was spit back up my phone card.
"Not even the public phone booths work… This is getting to be a bother."
"I see this world has its own problems, too…" I heard Gomamon say from the bag.

P.O.V. – Third Person

"The broadcasting system went haywire ever since the fog showed up." Chioka explained to his co-workers.
"So it happened when I was tossing out the papers." Hiroaki guessed.
"None of our system phones or cellphones are working either." A female named Yuki added. Hiroaki had enough of this and put on his coat. "Where are you going?"
"Isn't it obvious? I'm going to investigate. That's our job."
"Very well." She and Chioka followed along. "Sakurada-kun, let's go!" She called out to the fourth person in their group, a somewhat heavy set man named Seki who was listening to some Buddhist chants on his Sony boom box.
"O-Okay." He followed along.

P.O.V. – Ross McGlathery

Taichi and Hikari never even asked anything when I got home. They could just see the look on my face and the fact that I didn't have Tailmon with me that everything had gone wrong. It wasn't until we had gone to bed before Taichi at least asked what was wrong with Guilmon when I explained everything. It was almost eleven when Hikari got up again, and walked over to the patio door.
"Tailmon…" She muttered.
"Wait until tomorrow." Taichi told her. "I'll call everyone in the morning so we can go save her."
"Hikari-chan. You're not the only one who can't sleep because you're worried about her." Agumon said.
"Yeah, you don't have to deal with the wracking guilt of failure." I sighed from the futon on the floor as Dad was sleeping in my room with Drew. Guilmon was beside me, still deep asleep recovering from his injury during the fight.
"Don't think that, Ross. It's not your fault, that vampire just pulled a low blow. You did say you guys had him." reminded Taichi. "Look, we all just need to get some shut-eye for tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay…" Hikari conceded and crawled up the bunk bed ladder back to her bed.
"Think you can sleep?"
"I'll try."
"We'll get her back, Hikari." I promised.
"Just leave everything to us." Taichi assured her.

P.O.V. – Third Person

The Yagami/McGlathery family wasn't the only ones going to sleep. At Mimi's house, she was all ready for bed as well.
"Well, good night!" Mimi told her folks.
"Good night!" They said. At Yamato's, he looked at a note that his Dad had left him about boiled mackerel in the fridge.
"He's working overtime again." He informed Gabumon. He turned on the TV only to get static once again. "This is really weird.

A few hours later, out by the water edge near the Rainbow Bridge, Hiroaki and his crew were sitting in a van after exploring all across the entire district to find that fog bank had surrounded everything.
"And so, this is what the fog encompasses." Hiroaki circled on a map they had.
"It only covers Odaiba." Chioka observed.
"It's almost as if someone is controlling this fog. Like a magician." Yuki mentioned.
"Maybe we should get back to the station." suggested Seki. Suddenly the ground began to shake. Hiroaki quickly turned off the light in the car.
"Quiet." He whispered. Right outside the car walked a giant black dinosaur Digimon.
"M-M-Monst-…!" Seki had to be silenced by Chioka.
"Keep quiet." He reminded.
"You saw that too, right?" Yuki wanted to make sure she wasn't going crazy. Both men nodded. They all soon got out of the van when they thought the coast was clear.
"Maybe this fog has something to do with these monsters." theorized Hiroaki. Yuki suddenly screamed when she saw a bunch of small monsters approaching them. They were yellow frog-like creatures with orange fur and black saw-like spikes on their backs. These Child-Level Digimon were called Gizamon. "Be careful, everyone!" Hiroaki shouted as they were swarmed by the creatures.

Odaiba District, Minato Ward, Tokyo, Japan. August 3rd, 1999. 0555 Hours.

At the crack of dawn, news agencies and government officials were on the scene outside of the massive fog bank that had now surrounded the area of Odaiba.
"It's fog! The fog has completely covered Odaiba!" A helicopter pilot flying a UH-60 belonging to the Air Self-Defense Force called in.
"Affirmative, Rapier Three. We cannot receive any contact from the inside." The command center alerted him.

P.O.V. – Takeru Takaishi

"And as you can see, there are no signs of what is going on in the fog dome. The safety of Odaiba's residents is unknown." The reporter said on the TV as I dropped the spoon in my bowl of cereal before standing up.
"I have to go." I said to Mom. This whole fog barrier was the responsibility of Vamdemon, I just know it. The others are going to need me.
"Takeru!"
"I have to go! Onii-chan and Papa are in there!" Mom just sat back down and stared at the TV for a moment. "Let me go!"
"Okay. We'll go together."

P.O.V. – Yamato Ishida

"Yamato!" I heard a voice say. "Wake up!" I suddenly came back to the waking world and found that Dad was shoving me awake. I turned to see he looked worse for wear and was quickly downing a bowl of food.
"Dad… What happened to you?"
"I'll tell you later! Right now, hurry up and get dressed!"

P.O.V. – Jou Kido

I slept at Shimbashi Station through the night before I woke up about thirty minutes before six. I was currently chugging down a small bottle of an energy shot to fully wake me up. The trains were still closed, so I decided to move on.
"Jou, where are we going?" Gomamon asked from the bag.
"Hinode-sanbashi. Maybe the boats are still working."

P.O.V. – Third Person

"I still can't believe you actually forgot your wallet before you set sail."
"Well, that was actually kinda lucky. It's sitting in the house, rather than the bottom of the South China Sea." Phil and Susumu were joking with one another as they were at the station. Susumu was trying to get to work while Phil was trying to get back to the McGlathery apartment in Yokohama.
"We apologize for the inconvenience. Due to an unknown incident, train service has been suspended." The station intercom broadcasted.
"This isn't good…" Susumu sighed.
"Guess I can wait until tomorrow to go south." muttered Phil.

Both men were interrupted when the heard the sounds of people screaming before they turned around to see people running from ghosts and one of them was cloaked in red and wielding a large scythe. This was Phantomon, a Perfect-Level Digimon that now served as Vamdemon's commander of all his forces after Tailmon went turncoat.
"Wh-What are those things?!" stammered Susumu.
"Soul Chopper!" Phantomon's was a bit higher pitched than he'd look but with the sadistic tone to it as well as the scythe, he was no laughing matter. He swung his blade and destroyed the clock and train time screens. "Vamdemon-sama's orders! All of you will be taken in!"

Piyomon pressed the snooze button on the rooster alarm clock I had right by my futon as I gather my stuff up for soccer.
"Where are you going so early in the morning?" She asked.
"The soccer club's morning practice. I'd like to talk with Taichi about what we should do, too. I'll be back by breakfast, so keep quiet, okay?" She nodded sadly and I walked out towards the door past Mom in the kitchen. "I'm going!" I told her.
"Have fun." She said, not really sounding like she cared in terms of the tone of her voice. I still really haven't talked to her yet about everything, especially about my recent epiphany. I was just trying to think of the right thing to say to her, about being wrong about her feelings for me and that I did truly love her, even if we had differences of what I should be doing with my life. I just sighed and walked out the door.

P.O.V. – Ross McGlathery

I got up real early, just as Dad and Susumu were getting up as well. I let them hop in the shower first before I did and was already ready for what we were going to do today. We were going to deal with Vamdemon and get back Tailmon. Taichi and Hikari were up a few minutes later and it was five minutes after six when Taichi got on the phone to call the others.

"This is weird…" Apparently, he wasn't able to get anything on the phone.
"Taichi, don't you have morning practice?" Yuuko reminded.
"This isn't the time for that!" Taichi not wanting to do soccer? Things are serious.
"Really?" Yuuko muttered as she started to clean the counter tops. I walked back into my room and got Drew to take him out for his business.
"Come on, Drew-boy. Let's get you all taken… care… of…" I trailed off as my eyes widened in horror as I opened the patio door. "Taichi… Hikari…" I motioned the two of them to come over here and when they did, their eyes widened too. Outside was a sheer nightmare as thousands of people were being forced through the streets at the beck of an army of Bakemon. Vamdemon had invaded in full force.

We were speechless as we just heard the sounds of cries and screams from those that were being dragged away from their homes.
"Good God…" Hikari whispered in sheer horror.
"Hey, Ross? What was that Vamdemon said to you last night? 'Gather all of the children?'" Taichi reminded.
"Yeah, he did… Anyone else got Glenn Frey's 'Flip City' from Ghostbusters II playing in their head?" I asked. Both of them nodded. We heard the doorbell ring at the door and knew exactly what that meant.
"I'll get it!" Yuuko said as she walked to the door.
"DON'T OPEN IT!" The three of us screamed but it was too late. When she didn't answer the door, the door exploded and right there waiting was a whole squad's worth of Bakemon. Half of them headed right towards us before the door to the bedroom opened and Guilmon and Agumon ran out to defend us.
"Baby Flame!" "Fireball!" All attackers were eliminated in a fiery manner.
"Taichi! Hikari! Ross!" Yuuko shouted out as the four other Bakemon dragged her out the door.
"MOM!" "MOM!" "YUUKO-SAN!" We all cried out as even more Bakemon showed up.

P.O.V. – Mimi Tachikawa

Talk about a rude awakening. Here I was sleeping peacefully in my bed one second, the next me and my family are running out of the house with a bunch of those Bakemon on our tail! Thank goodness I still was hiding Palmon under that yellow sheet, so at least, we weren't completely defenseless. We ran as fast as we could before we made it to the elevator.
"It's all right now." Dad believed.
"What were those things?!" Mom questioned.
"Mama, let me explain…" I didn't get a chance as the elevator came to a stop and revealed a whole bunch of Bakemon that were waiting for us.

P.O.V. – Third Person

The last thing the Bakemon that were clearing out the Takenouchi apartment was any sort of resistance. Unfortunately for them, it was a fatal error.
"Magical Fire!" Piyomon had killed all of the Bakemon that tried to break into apartment. For Toshiko, she was completely wracked with fear. She was calmly making food in the kitchen when the door was knocked open revealing a bunch of ghosts. Then a small pink bird that Sora had told her was a stuffed animal had flew out of her room and fired a green projectile at the attacking ghosts.
"You're… You're not a stuffed toy?!" She tried to stammer out. Piyomon turned to look at her.
"Where does the soccer club have its morning practice?"
"In the elementary school's… schoolyard…"
"I have to hurry. Sora's in danger!" The fear suddenly vanished from Toshiko after those words… this bird… was a friend of Sora's?

"Separate the adults and the children, and have all of the children meet Tailmon." Vamdemon ordered PicoDevimon as the two of them flew over to the Big Sight convention center where all the prisoners would be interned. "We'll be checking each of their identities." For PicoDevimon, things couldn't have been going better for him. His greatest rival to being his master's right hand was nothing more than a traitor and the ninth Digimon to boot.
"Sir, why not kill them all instead of doing something so complicated? It'll be much faster." He asked the obvious question.
"That won't suit my aesthetics. But… You understand, don't you?" Vamdemon said to Tailmon who was hanging off a harness behind him in the center. "If you feign ignorance, I won't hesitate to slaughter every last one of them." He laughed.

"Tell me what happened!" Yamato demanded his father. They along with Gabumon had managed to sneak all the way over to a warehouse right by the Fuji TV building.
"I don't know either." Hiroaki admitted. "But in the meantime, both of you keep safe here."
"What about you, Dad?"
"I'm going to the station… I want to do everything I can to contact the outside and let them know what's happening here. Gabumon-kun, was it? Take care of Yamato for me."
"I understand." He said.
"Be careful, okay?" Yamato warned.
"Yeah." Hiroaki nodded as he walked back down the stairs.
"Are you okay with this, Yamato?" asked Gabumon.
"We'll have to trust my dad."

P.O.V. – Taichi Yagami

Agumon, evolve! GREYMON!" "Guilmon, evolve! GROWMON!" Our two Digimon busted through the walls of the apartment building right onto the streets to the panic of many of the people the Bakemon were dragging away.
"I-It's a dinosaur!" We were just able to catch Mom's voice from out in the crowd.
"No! This isn't what it looks like, Mom!" I shouted from Greymon's shoulder with Hikari hanging on to me.
"Yeah, believe it or not, they're friendlies!" Ross called out from Growmon's shoulder.
"Greymon, Growmon, save my mom!" I ordered as the two marched ahead swiping and clawing to death any Bakemon that got in our way.
"N-No! My children!" I heard Mom cry out; still not understanding what was going on.

Our attacks were suddenly stopped when Greymon cried in pain as he was struck in the arm, just centimeters from where we were sitting, by a red ghoul with a scythe. The reaper then turned his attention and struck Growmon in the chest.
"Gah! Damn it! Again!" He roared.
"There's no point in resisting." The ghoul taunted. "Now! Take them all to Vamdemon-sama!"
"Taichi! Hikari! Ross!"
"Mega Flame!" Greymon launched an attack but the phantom just vanished and he hit a building. "I'm sorry, Taichi… I promise to save your mother later. But for now, you have to run away with me!"
"He's right. We've got to escape while we still can." Growmon agreed. It was a very hard decision and I looked at Ross and we both seemed to click on the same wavelength. Mom would have to wait, getting away with Hikari was more important as she was the one Vamdemon wanted. Both Digimon turned and started to run away from the crowds of people.
"Mom! We'll come back for you!" "Mom!" "Just hang on a little while!" The three of us shouted as we escaped with heavy hearts.

P.O.V. – Third Person

Piyomon and Toshiko had disguised themselves as Bakemon to sneak past the patrols to get to the school yard. Along the way, Piyomon explained to her what was going on, though she didn't have time to say too much as they quickly arrived to the schoolyard only to find it empty.. All they found was a bunch of soccer balls and Sora's beanie on the ground.
"We're too late." Piyomon said with guilt.
"Sora… Where could Sora be?"
"Maybe we should follow some of the Bakemon, they might lead us to Sora."
"Okay… Um, Piyo-san, this might sound like an odd question, but did Sora ever say that she hated me?"
"Not at all!" Piyomon was quick to dismiss that thought from the woman's head. "In fact, she said this!"
"I was acting just like my mom."
"Sora…"
"That's when I understood… My mom loved me all along."
"I felt it too! I felt your love!"
"I'm sorry about before."
"That girl…" Toshiko almost felt like tearing up upon hearing those words.

P.O.V. – Sora Takenouchi

After those Bakemon got the drop on me, they took me and the other kids over to Big Sight where I was now sitting confined to my fate.
"Sora-san!" I heard a familiar voice put her hands on my shoulders. I turned to see Mimi in her pajamas smiling at me.
"They've caught you too, Mimi-chan?" Suddenly, the yellow blanket she carried with her moved and it turned out that Palmon was hiding underneath it.
"Should I evolve?" She asked. I looked around… no, there's no good opportunity at the moment.
"The enemy is all around us, so let's lay low for now."
"Okay."

"I swear, Susumu, I'm somehow cursed." I heard a nearby male voice say.
"Don't say that." Another male said.
"I'm serious. This is a sign that I should've died in that camp." 'Died in that camp'? That must be Ross and Taichi's dads.
"Come on, don't be ridiculous, this is just a horrible coincidence."
"This wouldn't have been as much of problem if we were on the base. You saw that tall guy, that one that's giving out the orders and who thinks he's a vampire, right? He'd have nine-mil right between the eyes if I was just allowed to have my Beretta."
"Could you hit him from here?"
"I didn't get those Expert Marksmanship medals for nothing…"
"Susumu!" Taichi's mom cried out and ran up to the two men, hugging the one that was obviously her husband.
"Yuuko!"
"What happened?" The captain asked as they all sat down on a bench.

"Our children… Our children…!" Yuuko cried.
"Calm down." Susumu tried to talk to her.
"I can't! I last saw them when we were being attacked by these monsters. Those orange and red dinosaurs must have eaten them by now…" Orange and red dinosaurs? Must be Greymon and Growmon she's referring to. I walked up to the group to assure them of the other's safety.
"Please don't worry."
"Sora-chan."
"Those dinosaurs are on our side. I'm sure they will come here with other good Digimon and save us."

The next few minutes were anything but quiet as Captain McGlathery was not one for staying a prisoner again. We gathered with a few other people: Mimi's parents, some folks that worked at the Fuji TV building that said they worked with Yamato's father and we all began to come up with a plan for escape.
"Okay. Here's the plan. The men will take down the guards, so while we keep those freaks busy, you will lead the women and children out of here." Ross's dad pointed to the female TV worker.
"Understood." She was quickly tapped on the shoulder by three people dressed as characters Gachapin, Mukku and P-chan from the shows Hirake! Ponkikki and Ponkickies. "Do you want to help, too?" All three mascots nodded.

"Excuse me…" Mimi's mom stood up.
"What is it?" Ross's asked.
"Please don't make my husband participate in such a dangerous plan!"
"Huh?"
"Hey now…" Mimi's dad tried to speak but his wife was letting loose.
"You be quiet, sweetie! There are plenty of other men here, so my husband doesn't have to join you, right?"
"Um, ma'am, that's not…" Now Ross's dad was the one who was taking the blunt of her tantrum.
"He'll die! If my husband dies, I'll follow after him and die too!" She cried.
"Okay, okay! I understand!"
"Well then, Tachikawa-san, you'll escort the women outside." Taichi's dad informed. As soon as he said that, Mimi's mom suddenly stopped crying.
"Isn't that great, honeybuns?" Okay, well, I now know where Mimi's tendencies come from. Like mother, like daughter.

"What is he listening to?" I asked the female worker about her male coworker listening to the boom box.
"Sakurada-kun? When he gets stressed, he listens to sutras."
"Sutras?" I suddenly remembered Jou's words back with our fight with Bakemon-sama.
"To fight against ghosts, you need to chant a sutra praying for God's good grace!"
"Chant a what?"
"By chanting the sutra, Bakemon-sama's power will weaken!" That's right! We used a sutra to defeat Bakemon-sama back on File Island. Surely the same could be now.
"Dear…" I heard Taichi's mom mutter to his dad.
"It'll be okay."
"Good. Let's go, everyone!" The captain gave out the order and the breakout began.

"CHARGE!" Ross's dad yelled as the men grabbed whatever they could and started using them as weapons and whacking and striking the Bakemon that was trying to put down the uprising. "Hurry! Led them out! Susumu, behind you!" He swung a pipe and smacked the Bakemon that nearly got the drop on his friend.
"Everyone, stay close to me!" The woman leading us said as we started running out towards the exits. Multiple Bakemon flew at us but I was prepared.
"Listen to this!" I held up the boom box and suddenly the Bakemon started to fall to the ground in agony. "Now! Hurry! Hurry!"

P.O.V. – Mimi Tachikawa

We managed to get out of the building and onto the road underneath one of the bridges, right by the giant red saw art sculpture.
"All right!" My mother cheered. "We've made it outside!" Our victory was short lived as a giant black dinosaur stomped right nearby us. "There's another one!"
"That's DarkTyranomon, an Adult-Level Digimon." I heard Palmon explain from under the sheet. "His heart and body were infected by a computer virus."
"Where are you going?" My mom asked as my dad had a determined look on his face before running back into the crowd. He grabbed a small buggy and drove straight ahead at DarkTyranomon.
"A man must do… What a man must do!" The dinosaur merely swatted the car away and sent Dad flying.
"Papa!" I shouted.
"Palmon, evolve! TOGEMON!" Togemon gave a swift uppercut to DarkTyranomon while Mom and I ran over to where Dad had crashed.

"Honey!" "Papa!"
"Are you all right, dearest?"
"I am, but… I made a fool of myself."
"No, that's not true! You were very cool!"
"Really?"
"Really!"
"Really?"
"Really!"
"Hey…" I interrupted their moment. "This isn't the time for that!"
"Once in a while doesn't hurt." Dad claimed.
"Yeah." Mom agreed.
"But you always do this!" I reminded them.

My attention was quickly drawn back to the fight when DarkTyranomon slammed Togemon to the ground and then he started to use his fire breath on her.
"Togemon!" I shouted as I ran closer to her. "You can do it, Togemon!"
"I'm trying…" She said as she slowly got back up. I looked around and saw everything was now going wrong. More Bakemon had arrived and were now rounding up everyone who escaped and were herding them back to Big Sight.
"Why?" I muttered to myself, tears flowing in my eyes. "Why? Why are they doing this to us?" They're terrible! I can't forgive them! I'll never forgive those Digimon! Vamdemon must be stopped!

For the fate of all of humanity!

My Crest suddenly glowed and my Digivice shot a light that reflected off of my Crest and shot towards Togemon.
"Togemon, super-evolve! LILIMON!" Lilimon could be described in a few words; a beautiful flower pixie that was almost the size of an average woman. DarkTyranomon backed up at the sight of her.
"Togemon evolved?" I said, mostly to myself.
"Flower Cannon!" She produced a large flower in her hands that revealed cannon and fired a bolt of energy that crashed into DarkTyranomon's chest.
"Lilimon?"
"Hi, Mimi! Do you think I'm horrible taste?" I had to smile at those words.
"Not at all! You're very pretty! And cute!" She gave me a wink.
"Thank you!" She quickly used her four rapidly flapping wings to quickly dodge the large dinosaur that was attacking. "Try to catch me if you can!"
"Get him!" I shouted.
"Hey, Mimi. It was your tears of purity that helped me to evolve. I want to cherish that heart of yours. That's why…"
"What are you going to do?"

"Just watch! Hana no Kubikazari!" She shouted Flower Necklace and became a blur as she flew around and around DarkTyranomon's neck. A moment later, a necklace of pink flowers was around the beast's neck. "I've removed the evil virus from him using my flower power. He's not our enemy anymore." Lilimon explained. "Good boy." She petted the dinosaur that looked friendlier now.
"Wow!" I said.
"A cleaver trick." A sinister voice rang out. We turned to see Vamdemon was floating nearby. "Bloody Stream!" He fatally struck DarkTyranomon and the dinosaur exploded into data before vanishing.
"How could you do that?!" Lilimon questioned.
"All I've done is rid myself of some unnecessary rubbish. You're next." informed the vampire. "Bloody Stream!" He sent a whip out that Lilimon quickly avoided before she counterattacked.
"Flower Cannon!"

P.O.V. – Jou Kido

As I got to the waterfront, my fears were confirmed about traveling.
"The boats don't work either." I moaned. "How do I get through that fog?"
"Jou, don't they teach you that in school?" Gomamon asked.
"Of course not! Stuff like how to make a fire or how to wash dishes… You never learn about that in a classroom!"
"Then what do they teach you?"
"Who cares right now! What's more important is that fog!"

P.O.V. – Third Person

Everything was moving at such a fast past. Takeru and his mother were on the fastest rail line to the edge of Odaiba. Hiroaki was sneaking past multiple Bakemon in the TV building, in an attempt to reach the satellite. Ross, Taichi, their Digimon and Hikari were running in the streets just past the warehouse where Yamato spotted them.
"Are you okay?" Taichi asked Agumon.
"Yeah, somewhat…"
"How about you, Guilmon?" Ross questioned his partner.
"I'll live."
"Taichi! Ross!" Yamato called out. "Over here!"
"Yamato!" The two boys said in surprise.

"Does it still hurt?" Hikari asked the two Digimon as she was checking their wounds.
"It's gotten much better." Agumon admitted.
"Give me a few minutes; I'll be back on my feet." Guilmon informed.
"What?!" Yamato shouted at what he just been told from the two boys.
"It's the truth." Ross said.
"Hikari is the ninth child!" Taichi explained to him.

Back at Big Sight, Phantomon knocked away the boom box Sora was holding and now she was cornered on the bridge by him and multiple Bakemon.
"Try chanting Buddha's name this time so you can die a peaceful death!" The reaper taunted. "Your life is mine!" Two Bakemon walked up to her before turning around.
"Not a chance!" They yelled before they revealed themselves to be Toshiko and Piyomon.
"Piyomon, evolve! BIRDRAMON!" The large phoenix quickly forced the ghosts to panic and pull away from Sora and her mother, who quickly shared an embrace.
"Sora…" Toshiko said as she held her child.
"Mom…"
"Run from here, Sora."
"You should, too!" The red-head insisted as the Bakemon regrouped and approached them.
"Hurry up and go!" insisted Toshiko as she planned to sacrifice herself to allow Sora a chance to escape.
"Mom!"

Things were already going horribly wrong and the day had still only just begun…

Boy, it has really hit the fan, hasn't it?

Anyways, I've really got nothing more to add for this one so I'll see you all next time.

"Push the button, Frank."
