TAICHI: NIGHTMARE SOLDIERS
This is Yolei here. Kari had just reached the Digimon Sage, Jijimon and he was starting his treatment on her. My group was still being followed by Ken and Stingmon on our search for Piedmon's Digi-egg. T.K.'s group faced Taichi, where he told Matt that there really was another Takeru, and that Kari was nothing but a female clone of Taichi.
The lake reflected the rising sun, casting a mist over the beach area. "This is it," Yolei said, stopping in front of the pink water.
"Genai lives at the bottom of a lake?" Davis asked.
Yolei nodded. "Yes, that's what Kari said."
"How do we let him know we're here?" Veemon asked.
"Someone needs to go down and let him know we're here," Michael said with a grin.
"I guess that means me," Betamon said, walking towards the shore,"I'll be back in a few."
He jumped in, creating a ripple that followed across the lake.
The Digidestined took this opportunity to take a break. Michael placed his back against one of the trees littering the beach area. Davis sat on a rock with Veemon at his feet. Yolei and Hawkmon just sat on the ground, staring at the horizon across the lake.
"I wonder how T.K.'s group is doing," Davis asked.
"I was just thinking the same thing," Veemon said.
"Yeah," Hawkmon said,"That General Taichi didn't seem to be much of a push over. He may very well be the strongest Digidestined."
"I bet he wouldn't stand a chance against Kari and her Crest of Courage," Yolei said.
"You have to wonder why Taichi didn't have the crest though," Michael said,"I mean, if he's the real Tai, he should have the Crest of Courage."
"I know," Yolei said,"I used to be so sure that Kari was the real Tai, but now I'm not so sure. She sighed and looked at something in her hand.
"What's that?" Davis asked.
"Nothing," Yolei said, quickly shoving it in her bag.
Davis just shrugged, but Michael was curious. He was about to ask her, when the lake started to glow.
The Digidestined quickly stood up and ran over to the shore line. The lake began to bubble and steam. A thin black line appeared down the center, and the lake parted.
"What is going on here?" Hawkmon asked, amazed as he watched a figure walk up the flight of stairs.
The figure was an old man, wearing a red robe, and had a string of white hair on his head. He was carrying a rectangular box in his hand, and Betamon was walking up the stairs behind him.
"Genai I presume," Michael said, stepping in front of the others.
"Yes," the old man said, bowing,"And you must be Michael, the reborn Joe Kido."
He crossed his arms. "That's right."
Genai nodded, and viewed the others. "Yolei, the reborn Sora Takenouchi, and Davis, the reborn Puppetmon."
He then turned to the whole group,"It is nice to be able to meet you, again I mean."
"Yes," Yolei said,"Where is the Digi-egg?"
"Pushy, aren't we?" he asked, holding out the rectangular box,"Piedmon's Digi-egg is inside of here."
"I'll take that!"
Everyone spun around and saw Ken and Stingmon landing on the ground a few feet in front of them.
"Ken!" Yolei and Davis shouted.
"Stingmon!" Betamon, Hawkmon, and Veemon said.
"Ichijoji!" Michael said.
Genai looked on, his expression remaining unchanged,"Myotismon!"
"What?" the Digidestined said, looking at Genai.
"He's Myotismon?!" Yolei asked, her eyes open wide.
"Yes," Genai said,"Myotismon was reborn as Ken Ichijoiji."
Ken looked at Genai and smiled. "Well, its been a long time, since we've seen each, hasn't it?"
"What is he talking about?" Yolei asked.
"What, he didn't tell you?" Ken asked.
"Told us what?" Michael asked.
"Ever wonder how you, I mean, the original Digidestined, got their powers? Yes, you all ready know that Genai gave them to you, but how did he gain that knowledge?"
"What are you getting at?" Michael asked, his fists clenched.
"What happened fifteen years ago? To the original Digidestined, I mean."
"Fifteen years...?" Yolei asked.
"They saw that battle at Heighten View Terrace between Greymon and Parrotmon," Veemon said.
Ken nodded. "Yes, then, a year later they unwittingly took part in a clan destined experiment by their doctor. The goal of the experiment was to fuse Digital energy that was present at Heighten View Terrace that night with a group of kids that witnessed the battle."
"What?" Michael asked, completely confused.
"What are you saying?" Yolei asked,"That the original Digidestined weren't chosen by the Digiworld, but were the end result of some experiment?"
Ken nodded. "Yes."
"So how does Genai fit into all this?"
"How do you think he knows so much about the workings of the Digidestined? He was part of the physicians that administered that test! He carried out that experiment, at Datamon's command!"
"What?!" Michael asked, turning around and facing Genai.
"You used to work with Datamon?" Yolei asked, completely shocked.
Genai held his head low. "Yes, but that is the past. I have long since turned my back on him. We must now focus on the present."
"Yes, "Ken said,"The present. Give me that Digi-egg!"
Suddenly, a bright light shone from the belts of all the Digidestined. They were all confused as they looked at their Digivices.
"What's happening?" Davis asked, looking at the glowing object in his hand.
"Something's coming," Michael said, holding up his own Digivice,"Something powerful."
"Is it Kari?" Yolei asked.
"No," Ken said, turning around and holding his Digivice up into the air,"That's not Kari. It must be....the Nightmare Soldiers!"
"Nightmare Soldiers?" Betamon asked.
"The servants of the Dark Masters!" Ken said, twirling around,"They're after the Digi-egg, but, how did they find it?"
"They probably have a way of keeping track of Stingmon's Digital Signal," Genai said.
"Shoot!" Ken said,"I've lead them straight to it!"
He quickly ran over to Michael. "Listen to me! We've got to put our enmity behind us! The only thing that is important now is keeping Piedmon's Digi-egg out of the Nightmare Soldier's hands! We've got to work together."
"No way!" Yolei shouted,"I'm not working with Myotismon!"
"Yolei!" Michael barked,"Ken's right, the important thing is keeping the egg away from the Dark Masters. Ken, what can you tell us about these soldiers?"
"Three Digimon," Ken said,"at the Ultimate Level. They are the strongest Digimon in the Digital World. We're going to have to pull are forces together if we want to beat them."
"It appears we have no choice," Michael said.
Ken turned around and stared up at the sky. Three balls of light were heading towards them. "Here they come."
Taichi stood on the beach, the wind blowing against his long hair. The cool sea breeze nipped against his bare skin, but he ignored it. He was a soldier, he was use to pain. However, subconsciously, he pulled his cloak around him to cover his bare arms.
He breathed in deeply, then started to cough. Black Wargreymon turned towards his partner. "Are you okay?"
"Yes," he said,"Its the salt air. I always hated the sea."
Black Wargerymon turned back towards the sand filled beach.
"Well," Taichi said,"We know its here, so we'd better start looking."
The beach was an area of a very important place, File Island. The island was a complete merger of every type of landscape imaginable. So it came as no surprise to T.K.'s group that they were able to hide behind a snow mound, while watching Taichi and Wargreymon a few feet in front of them on a beach.
"What are they doing, anyway?" Jun asked, her teeth chattering.
"Nothing," Willace said, his head poking around the snow fort,"They're doing nothing. They're just standing there. Maybe we should attack..."
"No, "Cody said,"Its pointless. They creamed us the last time, I'm afraid they'll do more if we attempt to fight them."
"We can't just sit here and let Taichi find whatever it is he's looking for," Willace said, turning to T.K. "What do you think?"
T.K. had his head facing the ground and his hands on his forehead, propping it up.
"T.K.?" Willace asked again.
"What?" he asked, shooting his head up,"What, are they attack?"
"No," Willace said,"They're just sitting there. What were you doing?"
"I....was just thinking about what Taichi told me. About how there is a third Ishida son. Matt's younger brother, Takeru. I mean, where is he now?"
"I don't know about that," Cody said, "But Black Wargreymon's doing something."
"What's he doing?" T.K. asked, running over to look around the mound.
"He's floating up into the air.....?"
Black Wargreymon rose into the air, with Taichi on his back. He raised his hands into the air and a small ball of red light appeared between them. The ball quickly grew to large proportions.
"Oh no!" T.K. cried,"Get down!"
Black Wargreymon through the ball into the ground. "Terra Destroyer!"
A bright light filled the sky, blocking out the noon day sun. The Digidestined were lying on the ground with their hands over their heads. They felt the snow melt away only to be replaced by sand.
After the smoke cleared, the ocean rushed in to fill the missing ground. It flowed over the ledge and quickly filled up the hole, bringing the dregs on the bottom to the top. "Now we just wait," Taichi said.
Where the Digidestined were was now a massive pile of displaced sand that was thrown up by Black Wargreymon's explosion. T.K. had managed to push enough sand out of the way to still keep hidden, but watch Taichi and Black Wargreymon.
"T.K.!" Jun yelled,"Why'd you stop?"
"Quiet!" he hissed,"They'll hear you!"
"We're suffocating under here!" Cody yelled.
"Be quiet!" T.K. yelled, then turned back to the filling hole. He watched as all sorts of objects float to the surface. The most interesting object was a round, oval shaped black object.
"A Digi-egg?" T.K. asked, confused.
He watched as Black Wargreymon hovered down towards the water's surface. Taichi smiled wickedly as he picked up the Digi-egg. "Now," he said,"Back to the capital."
T.K. watched helplessly as the two enemies flew off. "Whose Digi-egg is that?" T.K. thought.
Kari and Gatomon followed Jijimon down the hall in his Holy Tower. They passed by many rooms, but only one caught Kari's eyes. A gym. "You have a training room?" she asked.
"Yes," Jijimon said,"That room is a very special one. Time moves slower in there, than it does out here. So you can get more training done in less time."
"Wow," she said,"Do you think we could get to use that room?"
"No," Jijimon,"You won't need it."
"What do you mean?" Kari asked.
"Like many sages in the Digiworld, I know much about the powers of the original Digidestined. Including your Crest of Courage."
"Really?" Kari asked, holding her crest in her hand.
Jijimon nodded as they continued to walk through the halls. "Yes, when you use it correctly, Gatomon will become much stronger than she has ever been before."
"Really?" Gatomon asked, her eyes opened wide,"Do you think I'll be able to digivolve to the Ultimate level?"
Jijimon chuckled,"You'll be able to reach the Mega level."
Gatomon was shocked. "Jijimon," Kari said,"I was only able to use this crest once, can you help me use it again?"
"You already know how," he simply said.
"What do you mean?" Kari asked.
"Search your memories of yourself when you were Tai. How did you get the crest to glow before?"
"That's easy," Kari said,"Its something that is always on my mind. When I saved Sora from Datamon."
"Exactly," Jijimon said,"You overcame your fear of that electrified gate just to save her. That is the reason you crest glowed."
"You mean, I've got to feel courageous again?"
"No," Jijimon said,"I mean, once you remember that incident again, your crest will glow."
"But," Kari said, confused,"I all ready remember."
"Not entirely," he said,"You remember the images, but not how you felt. Because you're denying the Tai part of yourself. Your crest will never glow again, until you remember how you felt during that incident."
Kari nodded."Can you help me?"
Jijimon smiled even though Kari couldn't see him,"That's what I'm going to try to do."
Ken turned around and stared up at the sky. Three balls of light were heading towards them. "Here they come."
Michael turned to the other Digidestined Digimon,"You'd better Digivolve."
"Veemon armor digivolve to Flamedramon! The Fires of Courage!"
"Hawkmon armor digivolve to Holsemon! The Wings of Love!"
"Betamon digivovle to Seadramon!"
"That's great," Ken said grimly, as he watched the three balls landed,"but I don't think that it was enough."
One of the three Nightmare Soldiers laughed. "You are so right!" a female voice said. She was dressed entirely in black, with large bat wings draped around her like a cape.
"They don't stand a chance against us!" another voice said. He was dressed in black leather pants and chains, covered with blue flames.
"That must be the Digi-egg that Genai is holding," the third voice said. He was a large serpentine creature with large metallic wings.
The Digidestined were shocked. Ken, however, was grim. "Lady Devimon, Skullmearamon, and Gigadramon, the three Nightmare Soldiers."
Lady Devimon smirked as she stepped forward. "So, you are the Digidestined? How is it you could give the Dark Masters so much trouble?"
"I see the Digi-egg," Gigadramon said again,"Should I get it?"
"No," Lady Devimon said,"I'll take it back to the Dark Castle, you stay here and take care of these Digidestined."
She started to fly into the air.
"Quick!" Ken yelled,"She's after the Digi-egg! Protect Genai!"
The humans tried to run to Genai's aid, but Ladydevimon was much faster. She soared past them and grabbed the Digi-egg before Genai could react.
"Thank you so much," she laughed, floating into the air,"But now I've got to run."
"Oh yeah?" Holsemon asked, "I'll show you. Tempest...."
"No," Stingmon commanded,"You'll need your energy to stop Skullmearamon and Gigadramon."
The two Nightmare Soldiers didn't seem to even notice the Digidestined. "Well," Skullmearamon said,"Let's hurry up and get this over with."
"Sure," Gigadramon said, slithering towards the Digidestined,"I'll go first. There's no reason for both of us to get our hands dirty."
Skullmearamon smiled,"Sure, especially when one of use doesn't have hands."
Gigadramon slithered towards the Digimon that were standing ready to fight. "We're in trouble now," Yolei thought,"Kari, please hurry."
