Hey everyone! Long time, no see. I've been very busy... for the past four months! So I decided to return with a series. It should be very long, I hope so. It's an alternate to the series. In this Kari went to the digital world with the first seven, so that whole search for the eighth child' thing is gone. All the kids got there tags and crests when they first came to the island. The story takes place five years after season two would, but has nothing to do with it. Everyone also has D-3s. You'll find out more as the story goes on. Also show your liking of the story by reviewing it. Enjoy!
I also don't own Digimon, or any of the characters... wish I did!
5/20/01- Respaced the entire chapter, scene rewrites will come later.
By His Masters Voice
This is only a chess game to me, Rebel forces, A battle-scared teenager stood atop a Metalgreymon. The young male was covered with an assortment of black armor. His brown hair hung long to his shoulders. The eyes were abnormally dark, too much for an opposing force to look at. That is if they lived long enough to see them.
Are you going to back down, Rebels?
The captain of the Rebel forces radioed his comrades. If we surrender now, we'll be killed! We'll have to fight. The captain returned his radio to his waist. We fight!
Have it your way!
A large group of Megadramon and Gigadramon flew to action. The Ultimate's strength was amazing, surpassing the Rebel's power two to one. But the Rebels fought on, never stopping. This short battle seemed to never end.
Sir, we have lost a Gigadramon to the Rebel forces, but fourteen remain.
The commanding male squinted at the Rebel Digimon, I grow tired of this fight. Metalgreymon, it's your turn!
The eyes of the cyborg Digimon shoot open, glowing a hideous blood red. Its body made various mechanical sounds as it rose up from the ground. Giga Blaster.
Rebel forces froze as the Gigadramon and Megadramon flew higher into the air. Their gaze turned to Metalgreymon as its missiles came to life and flew forward. With a brilliant white flash, all Rebel forces were gone.
*********************************************
The scene was a lovely one, adorned with an assortment of old paintings covering the many walls. At the bottom of one wall there was a bed, and two figures slept upon it. It was TK and Kari, his arms around her body. A sight that was now common to this room.
Kari jumped up in the bed, sweat covering her body. Her eyes showing fear and shock.
Kari, what's wrong? TK had his hand clenching his chest due to Kari surprising him.
More of them, we lost more of our forces...
TK moved over to cradle Kari, Same way?
Same horrible, painful way...
*********************************************
A large briefing room, with the standard table in the center, was filled in by humans and Digimon alike. The room was a cold cobalt blue, no other colors beyond that the humans and Digimon wore.
At the head of the table sat Kari, TK, Sora, and Izzy. Their faces expressing a mixture of tiredness and disbelief.
General Hiroshi will be remembered for his bravery, as will the people under his command... Kari slowly closed her eyes to hide some of her sorrow.
The area that we lost was of great importance. It held advanced gateway technology, now they have an untold advantage over us, talk was spreading throughout the crowd due to TK's words.
Izzy rose from his seat and typed in a few commands on a computer console. This is a map of the digital world, a holographic image of the digital world appeared. At the location I am pointing at is a power plant.
A lower ranking officer stood up, And your point is?
Izzy glared the person down. My point is that we can destroy it, leaving this location in chaos, Izzy pointed at a building miles from the power plant. It's under the control of the Digital Aftermath. But, the person that runs the building. He... his name...
TK was tied of the silence, so he broke it, Joe, his name is Joe Kido.
The other Digidestined bowed their heads in shame, leaving the other humans and Digimon to ponder why.
We're going to need someone good for this, Kari looked around the room, then pointed at someone. You, General Mariko, shall led the resistance group.
It is an honor, my leader, Kari just shrugged off the comment.
We'll also need a tech and someone that's a good thief, the crowd wondered who will be picked. Yolie, you will go.
Very well. When are we leaving? Yolie showed no signs of being worried about the mission.
Three hours, pick your men, then suit up, Sora spoke fast and walked out faster.
Got that everyone? OK then, meeting adjourned, the room was quickly emptied, leaving only TK and Kari behind.
Kari, I don't like how this is going. Sora is being increasingly distant, ever since that day seven years ago...
It worries me to. It's also getting harder to track her, even with my powers.
I'll keep an eye on her, but it won't be easy, TK gave a quick kiss to Kari and left the room, leaving to worry more.
*******************************************
Sora, listen! General Mariko isn't happy, she needs to talk to you! Sora just walked faster away from Yolie.
Let her wait. I have to assemble my forces for the strike.
Kari didn't pick you!
She can't stop me, you can't stop me. I'm taking Biyomon and three Saberleomon with me.
I can see I can't stop you, so listen. Taking a rookie level Biyomon with you will not help! Yolie put a hand on Sora's shoulder, stopping her
in her place.
You're new here, so I'll go easy on you. Biyomon, will you do the the honors? Sora held out her D-3.
Biyomon warp-digivolve to... Phoenixmon!
A glorious light surrounded the fiery Digimon. The light slowly
subsided over the next few seconds.
*******************************************
Kari! Kari! TK ran a fair distance to reach Kari. I spoke to Yolie...
Your point, TK? Kari looked a little annoyed because of TK
stopping her. I need to get to the Main Hall!
Ya, I know, but there's a problem, Kari became very attentive. Sora took Phoenixmon and three Saberleomon to our predetermined location!
Damn it! She could ruin the whole strike! Kari started to have a faint light surround her.
Kari, relax, you're losing control over your...
...Powers? What good are powers if you can't control one person from doing something stupid!
The white light grew brighter as Kari became more angry. Various soldiers stood around TK and Kari to watch the light show. Talk was racing across the audience that something was wrong. They were right.
Kari? Please relax.
You know that I should just take her powers, add them to my own!
Sparks started to jump from the light, hitting the floor, and burning it. A few of the soldiers backed away for safety.
She would most likely leave us then, the surrounding light slowly faded.
You're right, TK, Kari amazingly transformed back to her normal, caring self. Hey, everyone! There's no more show here! The gathered crowd slowly shuffled away. TK, can I tell you something?
Of course, TK was taken back by the sudden change in Kari's emotions.
Oh, good. That whole thing of being able to take the powers of others, it's changing. Growing would be a better way to put it.
TK had more of a blank face than ever. What do you mean?
I could take the powers from anyone, human or Digimon. As long as it wasn't a physical attack, like Greymon's Nova Blast. And as you already know, I could sometimes also take memory fragments. But now, I'm gaining control on what I take, power or memory. Kari had mixed expressions of being happy and being very shameful. These are powers no human should have...
This could be good, or some other power is growing or changing. That could alter your perception of your other powers.
Kari seemed to cheer slightly Hopefully your right.
Um, oh, let go of it! Um, hey Kari, you're needed in the Main Hall.
We really have to restrict Izzy's use of the intercoms, he's always making a scene.
The two teens merged into the dense, busy crowd.
******************************************
Flora... Captain on deck! The foot soldier straightened his back.
At ease! All seemed to melt back down.
TK and I, want to wish you best of luck. This could change the balance of the war a lot. Take what you can carry, anything goes! Kari looked across the group, hoping to see weakness to correct.
Two guards moved away from their post as they let TK pass by.
Kari will teleport you to the selected location, a mile east from the target power plant. Yolie, if you see Sora, arrest her! Good luck, and make the Holy Alliance proud.
Kari closed her eyes as a brilliant blue light surrounded her. She opened her eyes, now appearing a ghostly white, as the light subsided. The group slowly broke down into data, then disappearing.
TK turned his head away, looking worried. She still thinks he might be there...
*******************************************
An outcrop of trees were incinerated to reveal four mega Digimon.
It's time...
The words spoken seemed to act like a spell. Billions of pieces of data manifested itself, slowly reassembling. Within a minute a group of humans and Digimon were standing there, ready to act.
Sora... you are under house arrest! a soldier stepped forward with handcuffs.
Handcuffs? I could brake those easily!
Yolie walked to the soldier and spoke quietly, Her powers, don't forget. Yolie then walked half way to Sora, She could be of use to us for now...
I feel so much better, please, tell me more! she spoke in a sarcastic way.
General Mariko pushed her way though the chaos, I have direct orders from Miss Kamiya, we have a deadline!
Then lets go, Yolie wondered into the bushes with some soldiers in the direction of the power plant.
I'm taking Phoenixmon to the selected location.
********************************************
Lightning Spear.
Attack after attack pelted the power plant.
Meteor Stream.
The southern shield grid was ripped to pieces within seconds.
Howling Crusher.
Force Omega of the Digital Aftermath was deleted.
Crimson Flames.
The single attack from Phoenixmon crushed the final shield grids.
Group B, finish the job! The rest of you, follow me to the research base! General Mariko rode atop Leomon's shoulder.
Saberleomon, give me a ride! Yolie jumped on the lion Digimon and rode away, just as a fire bird flew past them.
The remaining group continued attacking, Tusk Crusher.
********************************************
It's over there... Yolie ran from her lookout.
All right, General Mariko turned to face the small army. There is a gap in the Aftermath forces, here's our chance!
I say we go in with most of our forces, strike fast, and get in. We'll capture the base or if can't keep it we'll burn it and take the stuff we gathered, Sora seemed to glow with her head-strong words.
A soldier stepped forward, What about that Kido fellow?
General Kido could be a problem, but might not be there, Yolie returned her gaze to the base.
Can't I run my mission? I was appointed to this task by Miss Kamiya! General Mariko seemed to direct her question to Sora the most.
Sora looked away from the General, I don't want to do this... General Mariko, I'm here by relieving you of duty, til further notice. I'm here by assuming command!
This isn't fair! You don't have the right!
My authority surpasses you and Kari in this matter.
Sora walked into the bushes, not listening to the General. She realized that the gap was at its widest. Within a second, she turned around to face the small army and one annoyed General. We go... now!
It started, the group of humans and Digimon were attacking. The mega level Saberleomon struck through the opposing legions as if they were nothing. But Phoenixmon just sat on the ground, not moving. The enemies converged to the fiery Digimon.
The eyes shoot open. A large flame consumed the phoenix, but quickly expanded to swallow up the enemy. The flames burned out, leaving the bird, data in the the process of breaking down, and incinerated bones.
Another one bites the dust, the phoenix flew to the main entrance. Crimson Flames.
Everyone, the entrance is cleared! Go on! Sora ran into the
building first, followed by, now rookie level, Biyomon.
Sora, don't rush into things! Kido might be in there, waiting for you! Yolie grabbed five soldiers and Starmon, all, then ran into the building.
Yolie, stop!
Yolie turned from Sora, but to see an amazing sight. The walls seemed to pulsate with life. It changed its colors as the the humans moved, unaffected by the Digimon.
It's alive, an organic composite. You, soldier, take a sample, it could be useful later... the soldier jumped from his place to a nearby wall.
Um, OK... you four soldiers come with me, take those Digimon. We're going shopping, Yolie, the three soldiers, and two Digimon ran down a hallway.
Biyomon, we're going to the main computers.
The various humans and Digimon went their separate directions. Once all were long into the shadows, more soldiers poured into the building to secure it.
Yolie ran to the first door, the surrounding walls were flashing a blood red and sky blue pattern. She punched code after code, soon enough, the door slid open.
Bingo! All in that are going in! Yolie and the others pilled into the large room.
Shall we start collecting the items?
Don't waste anytime!
Everyone fanned out across the room. Many items were already being collected, nothing was missed. Then three items that were different from the others were seen. A soldier ran towards the objects, Looks like the object General Hikari wears around her neck. But these two things are weird. Another thing into the bag. Wow, what's that over there?
Another soldier ran up to Yolie, Should we take these data crystals?
Why not?
******************************************
Meanwhile, on the other side of the building, Sora was having her own problems.
Meteor Wing.
Another Digimon was broken down to data.
Good job, Birdramon! That should be the last one here. Downgrade to Biyomon and lets go! Sora ran down the hall to a room with many computers.
Sora! Over here! We can use this computer!
Good, Biyomon, good. And it has a crystal port.
She quickly turned on the computer and placed a data crystal into the port. Different strings of data was typed in, so she could bypass the protocols.
Computer, search for Digital Aftermath black projects and... and Taichi Kamiya.
Proper codes are... more strings of code were typed, Codes accepted. Please wait...
C'mon, hurry up!
Three files were found.
Sora reviewed the choices, then choose one.
Sora read as much as she could before breaking into tears. Biyomon then put a helpful wing upon Sora's shoulder.
The tears stopped. You would never do this if you were yourself, somehow I'll save you, Sora whispered to herself. Transfer all found items on black projects to crystal one, transfer all others on Taichi Kamiya and related files to crystal two.
Sora, why were you crying? the small bird circled around Sora.
Sora flashed a quick, false smile, Oh, nothing! She continued to think to herself, I'll save you.
*********************************************
A wounded soldier reported to Yolie, We are suffering heavy losses here, we have to pull out!
We can't pull out, not without Sora!
Maybe five minutes at best, then we're dead, the soldier ran back to the battle.
Where are you Sora, we don't have time!
As if the words carried some meaning, Sora ran out of the building.
What's going on? Sora yelled.
We tripped something earlier, then Aftermath forces arrived! I don't know how they got here so fast, there's no military anything around here!
Lets get across the battle field, away from the building!
The two young ladies' ran across the once brown, rocky soil, now a blood soaked mess. Too content on running, they never realized a monstrous, reptile-like Digimon was following them. Then it opened its mouth for the attack.
Blaze Blaster, the two spun around to see the coming flames. It would be certain death for them.
Gate of Destiny.
The closing flames and Digimon were sucked into a golden-colored portal. The portal then spun around, breaking down a moment later. Magnaangemon then appeared in the sky and landed near Sora.
A sweating TK ran to Sora, What, no thanks? Well, just for that... TK's expression became more serious. Give me the data you stole.
Sora handed him a crystal. And the other one?
What other one?
The one in your lower left pocket!
Sora stood there for one moment staring into TK's eyes. She then pulled open her lower left pocket to reveal the crystal. Here, take it!
Good, Sora. Very good indeed. Now lets see what you stole, TK placed a crystal into a reader, he reviewed the data. Black project data, interesting. We're still in the open, Magnaangemon, go patrol the area. Though I think the fighting has moved, the angel Digimon flew away. Next crystal, TK removed the first one, then placed the second one in. Data on Tai, some on Matt, there past victories, and how they won. This is very good, now lets head home, TK removed his radio, all units move to the final position.
The fighting suddenly stopped, then all ally Digimon moved away from the area. A Saberleomon came running over, kneeled down, and picked up Sora and Yolie. TK's Digimon returned to carry him to the selected location. Soon the whole area was devoid of Alliance Digimon, leaving Aftermath soldiers to wonder why they left.
Many soldiers, in formation, came running out of the burning building. They were followed by a single person, his armor suggested he was a general. As he walked out of the fires with great style, his name tag was seen, Kido.
The Holy Alliance will not live for this intolerable act of violence on my research base. They will pay, he then held out his D-3 to a laptop a soldier was carrying. Digiport open! He was then sucked into the real world. The soldier simply closed the computer and went on with business.
********************************************
The alliance forces raced through the forest to a clearing large enough to hold all of them with out problems. The group was circled with a blue light, then broke down into data. The clearing was once again a clearing.
Data swirled around the Main Hall, then becoming a solid mass again.
Welcome back everyone, I'm sure everything went well? Kari said with welcome arms. TK, you left without telling me! You'll get a spanking later. TK was blushing madly by Kari's comment, the others just didn't want to hear it.
Yolie stepped forward, It went very well, though Aftermath forces arrived shortly after.
TK snapped his fingers to a few guards that were dressed with more armor than usual. They ran to Sora, You are under arrest for taking actions that could of led to the death of all personnel in the strike group. Attempting to break your shackles will cause harsher punishment.
Well did you like it? What a cliffhanger for the first chapter! The second chapter will be up soon, hopefully. Here's a preview of the second chapter:
The purple light faded out and was replaced with normal, white light. Now the figure was visible. He had spiked hair, adorned with every color. A scar across his left eye proved he was in many battles.
Who... who are you?
Hope you read the future chapters...
