A/N: Glad people are likin' this story! But I saw there was a fanfic contest going on for stories about gijinka digimon. Well this isn't part of it so that's why I may be breaking some rules, ok? And also Patamon's attack is called "Air Shot" instead of "Boom Bubble" (Air Shot is the original Japanese name of the attack). Why? Just thought the original sounded better that's all. Just wanted to clear that up. Well that's it. You know the drill. Read. Review. Enjoy.
Chapter 3
Patamon and Gomamon were walking along a dirt road, still
on their search for digiemeralds.
"So, Patamon, where do we find the next
Digiemerald?" asked Gomamon.
"Let's check." said Patamon. He took out
something that looked like a compass. The arrow inside the device pointed
straight.
"My father made this," Patamon explained,
"before he left. He said the Digiemeralds always give out some sort of
energy wave. This arrow is suppose to pick up those waves and point you towards
the source."
"Wow! Looks like it's working so far."
"Uh-oh."
"What?"
"The arrow turned red. When it turns red, it means
someone already has it."
"What?! How in the world are we suppose to find all eight emeralds, when someone is on the search, too?" cried Gomamon. All Patamon could manage to say was, "Crap."
* * * *
Palmon ran out of the forest and into the meadow, not
paying attention to where she was going. She knew she had to get out of there
fast. Who knows how long Gatomon could hold off Devimon? She saw the dirt path
that led to Natsumi and followed it with great speed. Unfortunately she didn't
look where she was going and ended up smacking into Ogremon. Ogremon took this offensively.
"So you want to fight, little girl? That's great. I
was in the mood for a good fight." said Ogremon cracking his knuckles.
"Leave me alone I'm in a hurry." Palmon stated,
trying hard not to show her fear.
"So you're trying to act tough, eh? Let's just see
how tough you are." said Ogremon and whacked her in the face knocking her
back a few meters. Ogremon quickly rushed up at her and rapidly punched her. He
stopped after awhile and said, "How ya' like that?" Palmon was clutching her
stomach, wincing from the pain.
"Tch, you're not very strong, are you? Are you
holding out on me? Show me all you've got kid!" Ogremon gave her a swift
kick in the gut, laughing like a maniac.
Patamon and Gomamon followed where the arrow pointed. Gomamon looked straight up the road and noticed something.
"Hey! Look up ahead!" Gomamon yelled. Patamon
looked and saw Ogremon fighting Palmon.
"It's Ogremon the Treasure Hunter, and he's beating
someone up!" Patamon observed.
"That's Palmon. I've seen her around the village.
Should we help her?"
"Of course! Come on!" Patamon and Gomamon
quickly rushed to help.
"Ogremon why don't you leave her alone?" Patamon
said more like a threat then a question. Ogremon took a good look at Palmon's
aids. This just made him laugh.
"What's so funny?" Patamon asked angrily.
"The fact that you think you can fight me and win,
that's what!" Ogremon exclaimed. Patamon was enraged.
"Air Shot!" Patamon cried. A gust of wind shot
at Oregon's side, causing a pouch that was tied to his belt to fall. It dropped
to the floor and a jewel rolled out of it. Palmon picked it up.
"Hey, it's the seventh Digiemerald. So he had
it." noticed Gomamon.
"Give that back!" Ogremon yelled. He punched
Palmon, knocking her back. Patamon executed his attack once again. This time
Gomamon joined in.
"Marching Fishes!" A bunch of fish from a nearby
lake flew out and attacked Ogremon.
"You stupid kids! Argh!" Ogremon wailed. He
called out his attack. "Pummel Whack!" He rapidly punched the two
little boys.
"Stop fighting those kids!" Palmon yelled. Ogremon
just looked at her and hit her again. Palmon was getting badly hurt from not
only fighting Devimon, but Ogremon as well.
"Don't worry about us." said Patamon.
"We'll be fine. You should just go." Gomamon
agreed. Palmon didn't feel comfortable leaving two children behind to fight a
monster, but they looked like they'd be okay so she tore off home. She was
badly injured, but she needed to return to Natsumi to tell Leomon what Devimon
planned to do: destroy Natsumi and take over the entire Digiworld.
Patamon and Gomamon kept attacking Ogremon, but soon their
energy was beginning to wear out and Ogremon, being a Champion, was able to
conserve his energy longer than they could.
"I think it's time we got outta here." said
Gomamon between gasps and pants.
"No, we can beat him." said Patamon. But they
were so tired and injured. Ogremon was
also bruised a bit, but he could stand more.
"No we can't! Don't you know how Ogremon is? He lives
for fights. That's why he got banned from Natsumi. Because he always fought
with people! Let's get out of here." Gomamon said.
"You guys wimping out already? I could go for another
hour." Ogremon laughed.
"Alright. How do we escape though? He's pretty
fast." Patamon pointed out.
"I got an idea. Marching Fishes!" cried Gomamon.
Fish crawled out of a lake, but instead of attacking Ogremon they piled on top
of him.
"Hey! What the?" cried Ogremon. Soon, he was
under a big pile of fish.
"It won't be long 'til he gets out. Here, grab on to
me." said Patamon.
"Huh?"
"We'll get out of here faster if we fly and since you
can't fly you'll have to hold on to me."
"Oh...alright." Gomamon grabbed onto Patamon.
Patamon then powered up the wings on his head and flew out of there. A few
seconds passed when soon a figure descended to the ground and looked at
Ogremon, struggling to get out of the tons and tons of fish. Devimon lifted his
hand and the fish disintegrated.
"Pathetic. Beaten by children." said Devimon.
"Huh? Who're you?" asked Ogremon. Devimon introduced himself.
"I am Devimon, Demon of the Night and responsible for the
nightmare that will soon come…"
"……Sure. Look, nice to meet ya' but I have to go
after this girl. She took my Digiemerald."
"What I can give you is better than some jewel. I'll
need commanders for my armies. I'd like you to join me in my plan for world
domination starting with revenge on a certain village. I've heard you like to
fight a lot. That's why I'm picking you."
"What do I get out of all this?" asked Ogremon
rudely. Devimon considered this.
"I'll let you have complete control of the
northeastern part of the world. How does that sound?" he suggested.
Ogremon thought.
"Well I do get a thrill out of seeing
bloodshed." said Ogremon with a sadistic smile.
"Good. Follow me. I've found an abandoned castle
where I've kept my headquarters. Let's go." said Devimon and they went
off.
**************************************
And that concludes
Chapter 3. Still like? Tell me, please, cuz I love feedback. But don't expect
the next chapter to come by soon since I'm working on other stories. God, I'm
inefficient. Instead of working on one story at a time I work on a bunch at
once. Plus the one year anniversary of The Demon King is coming so I must
continue that. Peace!
