Tiberian Moon Chapter 3: The Calm Before The Storm
The giant ultimate Paildramon stood before the cyborg, who stood there unnerved by the sheer size of Paildramon. The cyborg lifted his gun-arm to attack.
'For the brotherhood!' He let rip a plasma burst that Paildramon dodged easily. Paildramon leapt into the air, and came down spike first. He hit the cyborg, disconnecting the gun-arm from the cyborg's body. Paildramon landed a few feet away from him, the arm in his hand. He threw it to the floor and turned around to see the commando. The 'fearless' NOD soldier was quivering in his boots or whatever he was wearing at the time. Paildramon now lifted his gun-arm.
'Desparado Blaster!' The blast hit the cyborg, who exploded on the spot. Tiberium crystals floating down where the cyborg once stood. All that was left of him was his gun-arm.
McNeil and Solomon were watching the battle from the safety of the bunker, tanks protecting them. Paildramon then split and dedigivolved back to Chibimon and Leafmon. Daisuke and Ken picked up their digimon and walked over to the two officers.
'Hhhhow!?! They can combine?!?!' Solomon was sweating more than Yamato did around Jun. Taichi answered.
'It's quiet complicated but they didn't go full out either.' Now he turned white 'Imperialdramon would tear him in half, in 2 seconds flat'
'Iiiiiiimperialdramon!?!?! How big is that?!' McNeil was laughing at Solomon
'Bout 100 feet tall with a cannon the size of a Titan on his arm' Daisuke was about to stop him laughing
'Actually that's Imperialdramon in Fighter Mode' McNeil was white now, Solomon almost transparent. 'Normal Imperialdramon is about the same size as Paildramon, but he walks on all fours' The digidestined were laughing at the two commanders, looking at each other in shock.
~Briefing Room~
'It appears we have found the NOD Headquarters. We have located Kane's temple.' Solomon was giving a briefing on some new info they had gathered. 'Unfortunetly it also looks like Kane is building two warheads, one nuke, one chemical. Attempts using the Ion Cannon to destroy the launch pad have failed. He also set up several ICBMs to destroy the Philidelphia'
Great. Bloody marvellous. This idiot wasn't so much of an idiot anymore. It looked like we would have to launch a full-scale assualt on the base, with the GDI in support. I spoke up my plan.
'General Solomon, if I may, Can I say my plan?' I was beginning to sound like a leader, why couldn't Taichi or Daisuke THINK for a change?
My plan was for the three digimon: Imperialdramon, Wargreymon and Sylphimon to attack from three different angles. Each backed up with a GDI attack force, we were sure to succeed....
~Three hours until attack, North of NOD HQ~
The north entrance was to be attacked by Sylphimon, backed by five titans, five disrupters and a mammoth mk2. Perhaps it was a good idea for us to have the mammoth mk2 with us. After all Sylphimon was only an ultimate.
~Thirty minutes until attack~
We were ready. We would destroy NOD, Kane and the Tactitus. Then time would hopefully become normal. Hopefully. I had no time to worry about that though, I had to concentrate on the fight.
'Ready everyone?' Hawkmon smiled at me
'I'm up!'
Hawkmon digivolve to........ Aquilamon!
Aquilamon.........
Gatomon...........
DNA Digivolve to........ Sylphimon!
I looked from the Mammoth mk2 to see two other figures amongst the fighting that was beginning. One was Wargreymon, throwing energy balls like footballs, the other of Imperialdramon. We knew what was coming next.
Imperialdramon switch to....... Fighter Mode!
The larger version of Imperialdramon was enough to make the weaker minded, less devoted conscripts to surrender. Within the hour most, if not all the base had fallen, with only the Temple left, guarded by Stealth tanks, Devil's Tongues and Obelisks. Wargreymon was dismantling the tanks while Imperialdramon was making short work of the towers. I met up with the other three digidestined, Miyako trying to get some 'sexy' private. Daisuke wasn't pleased with Miyako's flirting, blaming her for any failure that would occur. Taichi was smiling.
'Hikari, take Sylphimon and find Kane!' Taichi was optimistic 'Miyako's..... busy! It shouldn't be too hard anyway!'
So I would have to risk myself and find Kane, great. What a scenario. I get kidnapped by Kane and no-one cares. Anyway, I set my mind to the task ahead.
~Inside the temple~
The first floor was easily cleared, a few troops. They simply surrendered without a fight. We discovered a hole in the floor, probably a lift that Kane uses. Sylphimon put his arm around me.
'Hold on!' He jumped down the hole to land on the next floor. 'What now?!'
The speaker broke the silence 'Welcome, little girl. I am Cabal, Kane's assistant' I didn't like him at all 'You have cleared test one, now for test two!' Tests!?! Who does he take me for?! A fool!? Daisuke!?!? I'll show him! As if we needed testing...
The door opened a three cyborgs walked in. These looked... cheaper than the one we fought earlier. They opened fire on us, with worse aim then Mr T had in the A-Team! They destroyed a light, floor tiles, ceiling tiles, you name it, they it hit. Everything bar us! Sylphimon looked bored.
'Now?' I laughed
'Yep, Now!' The digimon raised his hands and created a fireball. The cyborgs continued their endless, aimless fire. Sylphimon released the ball, hitting and decaptitating all three of them. He resumed his stance and laughed. It wasn't funny to kill, but it seemed necessary to save all.
'Well done, you've got Kane's attention now' Cabal was back 'Test three?'
Another hole opened and we jumped down to see an old enemy, the cyborg commando. This one said nothing at first but then opened his mouth.
'For the brotherhood!' He raised the arm, similiar tactics to his counterpart. He fired a plasma blast, which Sylphimon dodged. After dodging Sylphimon charged at the cyborg, kicking him several times in the face, followed by a roundhouse kick. The cyborg was slammed into the wall, and split in two. We turned our back, prepared for the next 'test'. Unknown to us, he was still alive, He fired another blast, heading straight for Sylphimon. The digimon stood there as it was about to hit him. Then he punched the bolt back at the commando, destroying him for good. I felt invincible now!
'Hmmm It seems we've underestimated you' Cabal knew when to give respect 'I hope you're ready for the final test'
Sylphimon grabbed me again and jumped down the final hole. The room we were in was dark and seemed to be deep underground. Our next enemy was in the shadows, I could tell. But first....
'I must congratulate you on your success. Not only have destroyed my base but also defeated most of opponents easily' A man walked out of the shadows, a metallic implant on his face. He was bald and had a neat beard 'As you have no doubtly guessed I am Kane, leader of the brotherhood' Sylphimon was irritated by his arrogance.
'Hey shut up!' Sylphimon was ready 'Bring on the final test!'
Kane laughed 'You sure? Ok then out you come!' Another figure appeared. I had seen this one before. The face paint, the swords, it couldn't be?!
'Piedmon!?!?' How the hell.... We defeated him! The clown smiled. I knew this wasn't going to be easy. At all. I frantically pulled out my D-terminal and sent a message to the others. Sylphimon attacked, also frantically trying to hit the clown and missing all the time. Laughing at the pathetic aim of Sylphimon. Kane laughed as well.
'There's no point in trying. The tactitus is blocked the transmission. You're all alone!' Crap, I could use Imperialdramon right now!
'Trump Sword!' The sword of Piedmon scraped Sylphimon's back, forcing him into the wall. Tears began to fall down my face. We couldn't lose, We had to win. I didn't want to lose my partner, my friend, Gatomon. My digivice began to glow as did Sylphimon....
Sylphimon digivolve to........ Valkyrimon!
A new mega stood before me, a bigger more improved version of Sylphimon, with a hawk on his arm and armed with a sword. Piedmon growled and let rip another trump sword....
(A/N Sorry bout Sylphimon digivolving straight to Valkyrimon, he actually needs to DNA again! I thought it was better my way. Also for bringing Piedmon back, I may bring back all the dark masters as well! Please R&R!)
