CH. 49 Trouble in Toy Town
The group headed for the edge of the village to find Leomon waiting for them. They greeted the lionish Digimon and introduced Kayla and Lopmon as the new members to the team.
"It is nice to meet the two of you. I am glad to have found you all here. There is a problem in a nearby village called Toy Town. Some of Myotismon's followers are causing havoc there. This would also give the new members of the team to learn how to Digivolve with the tag and crest," Leomon explained once they had assembled around him.
"Toy Town?" questioned Brandi.
"Yes, it is a small town close to the Village of Beginnings. Most of the rookie level Digimon who Digivolve here head to Toy Town till they feel ready to trek out into the Digital World on their own."
"Seems like a good place for Kayla to learn the ropes of being a Digidestined," said Andrew.
"Doesn't sound that Dangerous to me," Kayla said with a smile.
"We can do it," said Lopmon with pride.
"That's the spirit. You kids will find the Village not too far from here. Toy Town is under the supervision of our friend Monzaemon," said Leomon, pointing into the distance.
"Then lets head on out then," said Cody, leading the group.
The team followed Cody to the town that Leomon had pointed out in the distance. Kayla was amazed by the surrounding area. To her, this place was a dream land. She grew even more excited when the group reached the town. The ground was now paved with bright yellow bricks. All the building seemed to be made of blacks in various colors and sizes. All sorts of toys and gadgets could be seen everywhere in this cute town.
"I wonder what's wrong with this place. Everything seems nice and quiet," Javi observed as he looked around. Before the team could admire the town any more, several objects crashed into the building behind them, causing it to crumble to the ground.
"You had to say something," Monodramon groaned.
A group of small black Digimon marched toward the Digidestined. They looked to be made out of blocks themselves and mimicked Agumon in shape. The Digimon were a solid black color except for their glowing red eyes.
"ShadowToyAgumon, they're low lever virus type Digimon. They use an attack called Plastic Blaze to fight their enemies. Huh, they don't look so tough," said TJ, closing his D-Dex after scanning the incoming Digimon.
"Ok… so are these guys the problem here?" asked Michelle.
"Most likely," said Winona.
"Then let's get to work, Feather Strike!" said Hawkmon, throwing her feather at the ShadowToyAgumon. The feather collided with several of the Digimon, causing them to crumble into tiny blacks.
"Yeah, Vee-Headbutt!" Veemon called out, ramming into several other Digimon with his head. The ShadowToyAgumon crumbled into blocks.
"Watch this Kayla, Lop Twister!" said Lopmon, spinning around and around. The small cyclone formed by Lopmon crashed into several more ShadowToyAgumon, disintegrating them.
"That was cool!" exclaimed Kayla.
"This is way too easy," laughed Javi.
"Then let me have a shot at you," said a voice. The group looked behind them to see that a large Digimon had appeared behind them. The Digimon resembled a teddy bear but was anything but cute and cuddly. Its body was completely black with an orange belly and a pair of deep red eyes. A tattered orange cape flowed behind him and it had a set of claws emerging from its paws.
"WaruMonzaermon, a puppet type Digimon at the ultimate level. Careful with his Bear Claw attack or else you'll be skewered. You just had to say that this was easy didn't you Javi," sighed Albert after scanning the Digimon.
"What are you doing trespassing in my town?" asked WaruMonzaemon, glaring at the group.
"Your town? What happened to Monzaemon?" Salamon asked of the giant Digimon.
"He is off on vacation, so to speak."
"Something tells me that he didn't want to go," said Gabumon.
"You think?" said Renamon.
"Enough about him, ShadowToyAgumon, attack!" cried WaruMonzaemon. The ShadowToyAgumon all opened their mouths at the same time. A series of small, plastic flames shot out toward the group.
Agumon Digivolved to… Greymon, Greymon Digivolved to… MetalGreymon
Veemon Digivolved to… Veedramon, Veedramon Digivolved to… AeroVeedramon
Guilmon Digivolved to… Growlmon, Growlmon Digivolved to… WarGrowlmon
Monodramon Digivolved to… Strikedramon, Strikedramon Digivolved to… Cyberdramon
The four Digimon took the full attack from the ShadowToyAgumon. They seemed unfazed by the barrage of plastic flames from the evil Digimon.
"That's it, I'm calling a full onslaught attack!" yelled WaruMonzaemon. The black Digimon jumped onto the roof of a nearby building then ran till he was out of sight. A loud alarm was sounded as more ShadowToyAgumon appeared, marching in single file lines.
"I'm going after him, you with me buddy?" said TJ, looking up at AeroVeedramon. AeroVeedramon nodded. The two of them took off running, AeroVeedramon plowing straight through the ShadowToyAgumon.
"Not without me you're not. Michelle, take care of Kayla for me till I get back!" yelled Cody, running after TJ.
"They might need backup," said Andrew following with WarGrowlmon.
"Any other plans anybody?" asked Ann.
"TJ has the right idea. If we take out the leader, we take out the army," Gaomon agreed with the rest.
Hawkmon Digivolved to… Aquilamon, Aquilamon Digivolved to… Garudamon
Gabumon Digivolved to… Garurumon, Garurumon Digivolved to… WereGarurumon
Salamon Digivolved to… Gatomon, Gatomon Digivolved to… Angewomon
Renamon Digivolved to… Kyubimon, Kyubimon Digivolved to… Taomon
The remaining Digimon attacked the incoming ShadowToyAgumon, holding them back and protecting the remaining Digidestined.
"Maybe we can find Monzaemon in the meantime," thought Albert.
"I want to go with my brother," frowned Kayla.
"It's too dangerous to go with him, you'd just get in the way," said Winona, a bit coldly.
"But… but…" started Kayla, tears running down her face.
"Oh now you've done in Winona," growled Albert.
"She's just a little girl who wants to be with her big brother," said Michelle.
Brandi knelt down beside Kayla "It's alright Kayla, Cody will be back soon but in the mean time you have to be brave, ok?"
Kayla dried her tears and let out a weak smile. Lopmon used her long ears to dry the remaining tears that ran down Kayla's face.
"I have an idea, how about a ride Kayla?" said Albert.
Gaomon Digivolved to…Gaogamon
"Wow," said Kayla, admiring Gaogamon. Albert lifted Kayla onto Gaogamon's back along with Lopmon.
"You can ride up there for awhile. The rest of us can fan throughout the town and try to find Monzaemon. The ShadowToyAgumon don't seem like much of a threat anyways," Albert suggested.
The remaining Digidestined split off into groups and fanned out through the town in search of Monzaemon. Albert, Kayla, and Michelle split off into one group, Ann and Javi into another, and Brandi and Winona took off together as well.
