Freeman's Odyssey
Chapter: 48
Enter: The digital world
The Digimon franchise is created and owned by someone else I don't own it as this is for fan fiction purposes only.
The Digital world
A portal opened up as Gordon Freeman stepped out of the portal as it closed behind him. At first he found himself in a whole new world and that is putting a gift horse in the mouth as he is upon a sandy barren waste land like desert. Ok he is at least somewhere and it is day light outside. With the blue sky above him and…and. What the hell? In which Gordon blinked first as if he seems some sort of mirage
The earth is above there as the seven continents are showing in some sort of digital form. It was impressive but in a weird sort of way and he has no idea of what to make of it as he has many theories. But none of them make sense at the moment, so shrugging his shoulders he kept on moving to where ever there is a civilization if there is any. A lone figure looms not to far away and the sun is to its back having seen the human appear out of no where. It was curious as it decided to follow.
Unknown to Gordon Freeman he is in a place that was created by a small band of humans or so they think. This place is known as the Digital world, a place of data but not ordinary data. In the earliest stages of its existence, this incarnation of the Digital World was little more than a barren desert.
As it grew alongside the Earth's communications network, however, it evolved and changed in dynamic ways, with more and more "layers" coming into existence over the top of the old ones The lowest layer is the original desert plain, and the highest is the home of the four Digimon Sovereigns that rule the Digital World.
In between lie many small "mini-verses," self-contained environments specially suited to the Digimon that live there, including (but not limited to) an area of clouds and clockwork; a warped, black-and-white town; an area of forests, lakes and rivers; and a 'world' entirely composed of water. Random packets of discarded data often roam the Digital World like tumbleweeds, and can be used to help repair and heal injured Digimon.
Although the Digital World has both night and day, there is no transitional period between the two, with darkness instantly sweeping across the world like a sheet. Visible in the sky no matter what plain it is viewed from is a pulsing globe of code and light, which represent the Earth—from it emanate "data streams", vast columns of energy which reach down into the Digital World and manipulate is digital matter, physical representations of acts performed on computers across the world.
Should an individual be caught in a data stream, they will be swept up into it and deposited elsewhere, on any of the Digital World's potential planes. Between Earth and the Digital World is a warped region of inter dimensional space where reality is constantly in flux, and defined only by the perceptions of individuals passing through it Gordon Freeman has just entered the digital world and will soon meet the digimon
The Dark Ocean
Castle
With the defeat of the demon lords; evil Digimon have been disarray in wondering what to do. But the demon lord's master knew it was a matter of time before they would rise again, but for now he allowed his underlings to do what they want in their little plans that had little interest to him. The presence of evil Digimon would unnerve Sovereigns and their followers the Devas. He is planning for the future and time means very little to a Digimon or any Digimon for that matter.
He is GranDracmon ruler of the dark ocean as he sits upon his throne and listens to a bold but ambitions plan by one of his minions. He was bored with his minions little plans, but this one seemed intelligent enough to carry it out with a scientific point of view. The digimon kneeling before him has armor like darkknightmon but cybernetic like a machine like Digimon, but has an appearance of a slug or worm with legs. Its name is Combinedramon; champion level digimon.
Combinedramon glanced back as its temporary master, considering it is an experiment of its masters to do their will and crush anyone standing in the way. His creation has a sole purpose to destroy the digimon and conquer the Earth, so it played along the evil digimon groveling to its master GranDracmon of an adjacent digital world to the digital world itself. Combinedramon listened to other plans by the other digimon, foolish plans all of them because in the end it won't matter.
"Very well," said GranDracmon "Carry out your plan of yours, take who you need and gather the data of other Digimon, fail me and there will be punishment for you."
"As you command master," said Combinedramon in a respectful bow
Then moving away Combinedramon goes out to carry the plan it is intended to do, but not for GranDracmon's desires, but the desires of his creators, his true masters who created him from their own data. The Combine Overseers, fool their time will come and soon it will. This abomination of the human's own creation will be gone forever.
The digital world
Gordon Freeman felt like he had been walking around for hours, so far he had found nothing. Then he heard noises and turned to his left to see a stamped of creatures going in opposite direction, they looked not any animal he had ever seen as if almost they looked like plant creatures. He noticed some sort of stream leading upwards from somewhere to no where as it was further away, but then he blinked as it got closer and closer in full speed.
Until it struck Gordon and he felt a sucking sensation as he is sucked inside of this stream, then after what seemed like a minute he is falling until he landed upon the ground hard. His suit can handle such impacts as he got up and brushed himself off. Glancing around he noticed he is somewhere different unlike the desert area. He wondered how he can breath in such a place like this or eat he didn't feel like he wanted to eat.
Odd where he could be now as Gordon kept on walking around but at one point a dog ran into his direction and ran away. What bizarre world he has come to, he adjusted his glasses and spotted a towering figure just standing there near a bridge. The towering figure as Gordon got closer and closer looked like it was staring off into space; the creature looked like a tall bunny rabbit of some sort with long ears and wearing clothing.
"Hey excuse me," said Gordon "Can you tell me where I am,"
"You are in the land of the Sovereigns," said the bunny "As this is the portion of the digital world human,"
"Have you met humans," said Gordon
"No, I have not as you are the first. Before that no humans have been in the digital world" said the bunny "Humans did create us from our myriad forms, but we evolved beyond that."
"But what are you," said Gordon "Not everyday I get to see an over 6 foot tall bunny before,"
"I am Antylamon," said the bunny "Deva to the digimon Sovereigns, digimon for short is for digital monster,"
"Ah I see," said Gordon "Are you feeling ok, you look a little zoned out. Perhaps kneeling down to chat would help."
The bunny looked down and glared at the human for a moment, deciding weather to kneel down to chat as she has nothing better to do at the moment. Antylamon kneeled down to one leg and stared at him again.
"Guess staring into no where can be rather boring, but I am used to it," said the Bunny "I do not know your name human."
"Gordon Freeman," said Gordon
"How did you get to the digital world," said the bunny "Humans don't have the ability to travel to the digital world."
"I have my own means," said Gordon "I wish, I could find someone to help me understand this place."
Gnome like creatures came out of no where and used some sort of dust on him as Gordon is being teleported elsewhere as his eyes closed and then opened as he found himself outside a place. A library, it has been a long while he has been in one of those places and so Gordon came upon the front doors in which opened by themselves. The library seemed vast and he looked around but found no one at first.
"Hello anybody here," said Gordon
"Over here," called out a male voice
The voice came from a room nearby and once Gordon opened the doors he found himself in a class room with a semi-transparent man inside tinkering and puttering at objects. Until he sees Gordon walking in as the man is surprised to see a human in the digital world.
"How did you get into the digital world," asked the man
"I have my own means," said Gordon "Are you a ghost."
"A ghost me," said the man "No, I don't think so. I am current in a coma from a traffic accident. I was in a bit of a hurry and never saw it coming. Wait, who are you?"
"Gordon Freeman," said Gordon "You are."
"Gorou Mizuno," said the man "But you can call me Shibumi"
"All right can you explain about this place," said Gordon
Shibumi nodded as he went on to explain a bit until he is finally finished.
"So that is it," said Shibumi "The demon lords were taken out for good, but the threat of evil digimon still exists. One digimon that I cannot identify is attacking villages and taking data for what purpose I do not know. So what is your deal?"
Gordon went on to explain about himself and his adventures.
"I see even the digital world is in danger," said Shibumi "Perhaps you can be the first, an experiment of some sorts for the future."
"Such as," said Gordon
Shibumi walks over and hands him some sort of device, with cards of creatures.
"You will be the first tamer," said Shibumi "With the recent digimon television show and the mass production of the new digimon cards. In a few years time kids will be playing the card game and who knows perhaps they will become tamers."
"For what reason," asked Gordon
"To defend the digital and human world from evil," said Shibumi "That there is a digivice and those are your cards."
"Smart guy," said Gordon as he takes the cards and device
"Yup," said Shibumi as a holographic images appear on the table showing an attack by a couple of evil digimon, another one is fighting them back but losing due to being five on one "It would be best go help it out, the digivice will teleport you there." And then added "Perhaps this digimon can be your partner,"
Gordon uses the device to teleport away
Digital world: Forest Level
Finally coming upon this level he dashed to where the battle is taken place as noises are heard in the background that sounded like announcing attacks. Gordon takes out his Combine blaster rifle and sees a strange dark looking lady about to go in for the kill against a yellow fox like creature. Gordon opened fired upon the creature's chest as the shot strikes her hard and left a big hole then she is then scattered all around like digital bits of some sort.
The other four looked on in shock and see a human, an actual human running towards the good digimon who tried to get in their way. In completing their mission to collect data, Gordon Freeman stands by the yellow creature.
"Hey you ok," said Gordon
"Yeah I am fine, human," said the creature "Thanks for the assist, I watched you appear out of no where,"
"Let see what do we have here," Gordon uses the device "Renamon, male champion level. Attacks, power paw, diamond storm and perception filter….seriously diamonds are your attack,"
"Shut up human," said Renamon "I am a rare male Renamon. The rest of the renamon's are female."
"Wish we can work together," said Gordon
"Like that will happen," said Renamon "But why not."
The four digimon launch their attacks at Gordon in which he muttered shields. An explosion occurred as their attacks were deflected off of his shield much to his surprise of the male Renamon. Then a glow is seen from the device he got and Gordon pointed at Renamon
"Not bad," said Renamon "Wait what is…."
RENAMON DIGIVOLVES TO…
Kyubimon
"Not bad," said Gordon
"Never been this form before," said Kyubimon
FOX TAIL INFERNO
The attack is made as the four evil digimon are burning but it isn't enough as Gordon has an idea and uses one of the cards as he swipes it.
"Digi-modify," said Gordon "Meteor shower activate,"
Kyubimon's tails begin to glow
METEOR SHOWER
The attack engulfs the four evil digimon as it knocked them back and are injured but knowing they cannot win they retreated with the data. Kyubimon de-digivoled back into Renamon
"Great job," said Gordon
"You too," said Renamon
The both fist bumped and looked around them as other digimon are cheering in celebration, a human and a digimon working together. They will spread the news about this.
Any idea of what they wanted," said Gordon
"Data from fallen digimon they killed," said Renamon "Overheard one of them talking about taking it to Combinedramon."
"Combinedramon," said Gordon as he pondered on this for a moment "Whatever it is, it can't be good news,"
"The demon lords are gone but their armies are out there," said Renamon "This could be one of them."
Meanwhile elsewhere
Combinedramon has his back turned towards a large pointy object until several evil digimon had come warning him about a human in the digital world. It made no difference as it is finally ready.
"All of you have outlive your usefulness," said Combinedramon "Behold the destruction of the real and digital world,"
All of sudden every data particles from the evil digimon are sucked into the large pointy object that is black and long like a spire. The digimon's data proved useful and then he activates the spire as this is a dark spire. A small hole opens up under it as a city can be seen below it.
Digital world: Forest Level
Gordon Freeman and Renamon a male one are chatting but suddenly a call comes in from Shibumi telling them there is trouble and Combinedramon has activated some dark spire made from the data of many fallen and evil digimon. It is created some type of tear into both worlds. Both of nodded and Gordon used Pidemon's card as a teleportation ability to get there
Digital world: Desert Level
Gordon Freeman and a male Renamon appear nearby as they see Combinedramon looking at them and Gordon noticed that it almost looks like a Combine overseer, did the Combine create this creature.
"You're too late," said Combinedramon "Once I and my creation head to the human world it will all be over soon."
"Not if we have something to say about it," said Gordon
"Agreed," said Renamon "You will be deleted,"
The dark spire with Combinedramon are sucked down from the portal as the both of them will be in the city in mere moment as both Gordon and Renamon look into the hole to see the city itself.
"We're going in there right," said Renamon "To the human world,"
"Of course let's go," said Gordon
Both of them jump in not knowing what city they will be in.
