The day was rather calm, overcast but not exactly on the verge of rain or anything as one Akira Kagetora rode the bus towards "VRcade" the nearest place to his apartment that one of his… lifestyle could play the newest, and frankly best, Digimon game that had ever been made. It was the perfect thing to spend his free money on now that his bills were paid and his food and drink were stocked up for the month. Smiling to himself as he got out of his seat as the bus pulled to a stop, he was glad that soon, he would be immersed in the VR Pod and enjoying his adventures in the Digital World with his partner and finally free of the boredom and monotony that reality had… at least for a few hours. Heading past the blinking lights and noisy machines of the other games, he didn't bother to look at the wage slave that was monitoring the counter as he signed in for his appointed time. Heading towards his preferred pod, he slid himself into the bed, placed the headset on, and smiled as he waited for the sweet sounds of the machine kicking in and the familiar rush of light and sound that sent him into the Digital World.

Lilithmon smiled as its plan worked exactly as it intended it to. The oh-so-powerful Higher Powers that sought to stop its plans in this universe. Little did they know that their attempts to steal some of their 'Digidestined' from the human world would allow it to take one of its own. If it played its cards right, and the human wasn't a goody two shoes, then it would be able to rub in its victory right in the other Demon Lord's faces. ESPECIALLY Lucemon, the smug snake of a fallen angelmon, who had its ultimate form lose to a bunch of kids using the powers of long dead 'heroes'. Like a punk.
"Master Lilithmon, we have obtained your… human." The sound of Matadormon's voice made it grin, and as it spun around it nearly recoiled at what it spotted. Granted, it wasn't expecting an Adonis or anything, but the human its forces nabbed looked like he barely knew what a 'workout' was. He also seemed like he only did the bare minimum to make himself presentable whenever he left his house, with barely combed hair, clothes that looked like they were months out of the fashion cycle, and, worst of all, dry skin!
Taking a few seconds to center itself, it reminded itself that, after the human was given her code key, all of that would be sorted out. With a calming breath to regain its royal demeanor, Lilithmon waved its hand to dismiss Matadormon until it was needed again. For now, it would have to use all of its charm, brains, and maybe a bit of sexual appeal, to make sure the human would see things from its point of view. After sitting on her throne and adjusting its dress to show just a bit more in the way of cleavage and be a bit tighter on the waistline, the human began to awaken. With a smirk hidden behind her golden claw, Lilithmon prepared for the show to start.

Being well used to the immersion, but still being way more sore than usual, Akira groaned as he sat up, expecting to find himself in the Inn he had fallen asleep in last time he logged out. Instead, he found himself in a rather… lavish, if overly purple, castle room, being placed before…
"Holy shit, it's Lilithmon." He couldn't stop himself from saying that, as he was more than a little bit of a fan of the Digital Demoness. In fact, he was going out of his way to turn his main partner in game into said demon lordess, so he was more than a little concerned as to why he was waking up here, but not questioning it as the demon lord blinked before looking down at him.
"You… know who I am? That… is intriguing, human. Very intriguing…" The demoness smirked down at him as he nodded at her.
"Of course, you are my favorite digimon after all." The demon lord dropped her jaw as he said that, and he marveled at the ability the programers had to plan for these kinds of things.
Digimon - Digital Monsters
"Well… that… is very kind of you… human…" This was amazing, well beyond its wildest dreams! Not only did the human know of it, it ALSO was a loyal follower even in another world! This was perfect, beyond perfect even!
Digimon - Digital Monsters
"Then allow me to cut to the chase, human, I want you to join my side and aid me in taking over the world." The demoness strode down from her throne to stand before him, offering him her hand.
Akira, thoroughly unsure what to do in this situation, stared at the hand in wonder. Did they add factions to the game and not tell anyone? Is this a stealth update only given to certain players with more points invested in Virus Digimon? Is he dreaming and this was just another cruel trick of his unconscious mind? Shaking his head, he reached up and grabbed the outstretched claw. Winner's take the first napkin, no time to over think.
As soon as he grasped the claw, he screamed until he thought his throat would explode as he felt what must have been his entire body erupting as it started ripping itself apart at the seams. In almost painstaking slowness, he could feel his skin, muscles, organs, bones, even his hair start to rip, tear, and put itself back together as Lilithmon stared down at him with a victorious smirk on her face. And then, right as his mind could take no more, he was mercifully sent into unconsciousness.
Digimon - Digital Monsters
Lilithmon watched the human writhe and whimper on her floor for a few seconds, smirking and feeling giddy as she saw her Code Key not reduce him to a bloody pulp on her nice clean carpet before snapping her fingers and summoning Matadormon to take the human to its chambers to rest. While this was not at all what it expected to happen, it was more than slightly pleased with the result. All it had to do now was tell the human what its plan was, get it a digivice and partner, and make sure her ace in the hole was fully ready for the mission it had planned. Oh, this… this was going to be good. Suck it Lucemon, you overgrown dust mite!
Preening itself a little from a job well done, it decided to go and prepare its human's outfit. No pawn of its was going to look tacky and drab, that was for sure. Now where did it leave those capes…
Digimon - Digital Monsters
Akira groaned, again, as it realized maybe everything it had experienced before was way more real than it had any right to be. He also, as a benefit of what had happened before, realized he had made a literal deal with a devil. Pursing his lips, Akira decided to take stock of what he knew so far. Once he had everything sorted out, he could move forward from there. Just like in video games, planning made things easier.
He was not in Kansas anymore, as it were, he was somehow literally pulled into the Digimon World. In addition to that, he had to be somewhere in the Dark Area, as he was clearly in Lilithmon's Castle. If he tried to escape, he would probably be doomed, as the Dark Area wasn't exactly friendly to newbies and the means that the best course of action was to hear out what the demon lord wanted from him, hopely get a partner, and then prepare from there.
Nodding to himself, he prepared to get out of the bed he found himself in, only to stop the second he was uncovered. He also found that his body was not what it was before he had... gone to sleep as it were. He wasn't going to argue though, he preferred how he looked now then before after all. The only thing that worried him was the new mark on his left pec, the mark of the Code Key of Lust, and after touching it, he found it was going to stay there since he only felt skin beneath his fingers. Still, finishing getting out of bed, he heard the door open and turned towards the sound, seeing his de-facto benefactor walk in and look him over.
"Much better… Much better by far…" Being looked over like a piece of meat by a Demon Lord of Lust, lingering on his mark a bit longer than the rest, caused a confusing mix of feelings in Akira. On one hand, she is basically an unstoppable monster that could, and probably would, kill him as soon as screw him. On the other, it did feel good to be desired, especially after how he had been before. Deciding to accept the praise, he nodded at the demoness and smiled.
"Hello Lilithmon, I'm… happy you approve?" The digimon giggled, hiding her mouth behind her clawed hand as she stared at him.
"Indeed. Now, allow me to give you the mission you had agreed to." He was tossed something by the demon lord before she sat next to him, sitting basically hip to hip with him as he opened the small package and began to examine what was in it as she began to speak.
"So, human, I have a simple plan that you are a key part in…" Akira nodded as he pulled out a simple pair of black and white sneakers with dark socks that seemed like they would go at least half way up his shin, if he guessed correctly.
"I plan to take over the Digital World, including destroying the Royal Knights and King Drasil." That drew Akira's attention, and he could not stop himself despite the danger.
"That is completely insane. How can we even manage that?" Lilithmon, either expecting the outburst or ignoring it in favor of being a sexy demon lord, merely smiled at him, showing her fangs as she responded.
"That is where you come in, little human… Akira, yes?" Seeing that she knew his name, despite him never saying it to her, was much scarier then it had any right to be.
"You will be infiltrating the Digidestined and drawing them to our side. Simple, yes?" Akira really wanted to say that was basically the opposite of simple, but he could feel a phantom hand slowly closing around his throat so settled for nodding.
"Y-yes. Of course Mistress." And suddenly the hand was gone, and Akira shivered from something other than cold as he turned back towards the bag and pulled out the soft sweatpants-esque black pair that had purple pockets and came complete with his old wallet and other things, which was nice but useless, all things considered.
"Beyond that, the major problems you will have to avoid will be the Royal Knights and the Sovereigns little faction, as they are the ones that will be the biggest threat to my, and by extension your, goals." He nodded again, not sure what to say, but filing the information that he would also have to deal with the literal digi-gods away for later as he pulled out a snug seeming black shirt that had a slight turtleneck quality to it.
"Finally, after a little bit of… let me go with preparatory investigation, I managed to get you a rather large leg up on the other digidestined. Mainly… a Digivice that can do more than act as a fancy digivolution button." The demon lord placed a small box on top of the bag just after he pulled out a pair of black gloves with purple fingers and set them aside, which he totally did not open like it was an early christmas gift. At all.
The Digivice that was inside the box was, not surprising at all, black, with what seemed to be a flip screen and a wrist mount, with purple buttons on the sides that made it look like a strange hybrid of a Switch with a 3DS, along with having shades of a phone thrown in as well. He looked it over once more just in case, and after finding nothing else, decided to try it on. Purely to examine it further, of course.
As soon as he had it placed around his wrist, he smiled as he turned it on and saw the Digi-runes race across the screen before pulling up a "home screen" of sorts, with a few symbols that gave him access to different "programs" if he had to guess. The first one had what seemed to be a pixel version of a digimon that he couldn't quite tell at the moment. The second was a book, which left a large list of things it could be, while the final one, for the moment, seemed to be a map. He also took note of the small digi-gnome that was curled up in the lower right corner of the screen.
"With that I will leave you to your own for now." He nearly jumped as he heard Lilithmon's voice broke him from his nerd-out, and he looked over at her to see her grinning at him from the door. "After you are dressed and ready, simply leave the room and one of my other minions will lead you to my throne room."
Akira was given no time to respond before Lilithmon quickly left the room, leaving him alone, with a near empty bag, a digivice, and a pile of clothes to keep him company. And after a full body shiver wracked his being, he decided to pull out the simple black boxers and get dressed as quick as he could. It was really cold in here after all.
Digimon - Digital Monsters
After untucking his shirt and smoothing it out a little, he looked over one of the many full length mirrors that littered the room around him and looked himself over. The shirt, while seeming tight, was actually rather roomy, and the pants were also nice and snug, and the legs ended just above the top of the sneakers showing only a sliver of the socks. His Digivice, which will probably always send a spike of giddiness through him at the thought, was secured to his right forearm over his sleeve. He also noticed that his hair, which is the bog standard black hair for the average Japanese man, was now longer and featuring a small stripe of purple in it. He guessed it was another thing Lilithmon changed, and he supposed it wasn't that big a deal all things considered. Purple isn't the worst color in the world after all, and hey, at least it wasn't blonde.
Checking out the last thing that was in the bag, he noticed that it was a strange cape-backpack thing. Raising an eyebrow at it, he opened the flap, and upon seeing it was empty, shrugged and threw it on as well, liking how cloak like it was, and that it had a hood. Seeing that he was fully dressed and outfitted, he nodded to his reflection in the mirror, and headed out.
As soon as he stepped out of the bedroom, he looked around and saw a small Nyaromon napping next to the door, and almost sure this was the 'guide' we was supposed to have take him to Lilithmon's throne, crouched near it and gently pet its head… body… face… thing. The In-Training Digimon made a strange noise that was a mix of a meow and a yawn as it 'stretched' before looking up at him.
"Ah, you must be the humyan…" Akira nods in response to the statement.
"And I suppose you are the guide I was told about." The Nyaromon nodded… as well as it could anyway, and hopped around to start leading him towards the throne room. With little choice but to follow, Akira quickly fell into pace behind the yellow ball of fluff and cat.
"So… you are a humyan, a real one…" Raising an eyebrow at the cat, not that it could see it of course, given it could only bounce in the way it was facing, Akira responded.
"Yes, I am. I am guessing this probably isn't something common here, huh?" Nyaromon made a noise.
"Nope, not at all. Though almost all Digimon have heard of humans. Mainly the fact that, if a Digimon partners with them, they can manage to get to Mega form in less then a month…" The way Nyaromon spoke made Akira think a bit because of just how… spellbound she sounded. In the lore, Mega digivolving was something only one in a million million digimon could ever get to. However in the anime, a human could take one digimon to the 'highest level' much faster. In the games it was even more intense, where one human could take tens of digimon to that level in even less time. He supposed, given that information, it would make sense that humans would seem like basically super heroes to Digimon, despite the fact that most Digimon can snap a human in half with less then a single blow.
"I suppose that would be neat, given the situation…" He smiled a little as Nyaromon made happy noises at the statement.
The two spent most of the rest of the walk chatting, though it was more Akira answering various questions Nyaromon had about humans and how they worked. Still, like all good things, it came to an end far too soon for either of them as they soon came to a large double door that clearly led to the throne room. The two quickly found themselves falling silent as they prepared to split up.
Digimon - Digital Monsters
Giving Nyaromon a wave goodbye, Akira pushed open the door and headed into the room, and was soon standing before Lilithmon, who was lounging on her throne, looking down at him as she let her eyes take in all of his newly acquired body and duds. The feeling of being meat before a predator once again overtook him, but he bit down on the impulse to fight or flee once again. After she finished eating her eye candy, Lilithmon nodded at him.
"Very nice, I am glad to see my tastes suit you, my Ace." She smiled at him, and all he could really do was nod at the comment.
"Thank you Mistress, I'm happy you think so." Not entirely wrong, he really was happy about her comment, especially her calling him 'my Ace'. It felt nice, in more ways than one.
"Now, before I send you off to complete my takeover, all that remains is for me to… supply you with a Partner…" Akira noticed Lilithmon waving her hand, the non-clawed one, in the air as if tracing something that only she could see, and while he was a little scared of what could happen, his mouth moved before his brain once again.
"How about Nyaromon?" She stopped, looking down at him with a sharp gaze so he elaborated, already feeling the phantom suggestion of something crawling up his spine.
"Well, if I can access the full scope of Nyaromon's digivolution line of 'Salamon' then I can have plenty of ways to deal with various situations that crop up. After all, Salamon has access to Gatomon, which gives me a powerful Vaccine type Digimon, BlackGatomon, which gives me Virus type, Mikemon, which is Data, and Meicoomon, which is Free type. And that is only the Champion stage…" The sensation subsided as Lilithmon took in the information, and akira was almost holding his breath as he waited for her verdict.
"Hmm… I see, you raise a good point, my Ace…" He sighed in relief as she smiled down at him. "And with my gift, you can indeed take full advantage of that plan you have made…" Her smile suddenly turned vicious.
"Now, my Ace, I must… prepare you for your adventure. Come to me." He gulped when he found his body moving of its own accord towards the Demon Lord, and while he was sure that whatever was about to happen might not be bad… He couldn't shake the feeling that he wouldn't exactly be able to walk it off either. The last thing he felt before he lost consciousness was Lilithmon's claw resting on his cheek.
~Digimon - Digital Monsters - Chapter 1: A Demon's Digidestined - End~
Hello There.
So if not obvious by the timing or randomness of this post, I did not write this wonderful piece.
This was written by a good friend of mine. We beta and proofread each others works but they don't have a profile to post this online and they can not make one at this time. So as thanks for all the work they have done with helping me out, especially on my recent RWBY story, I posted his story on my profile.
Give it a good read and review. There is definitely more to come because they're more productive than me when it comes to writing.
You all have a great day and stay safe wherever you are.
