January: Unity and Hope
It was the beginning of January and TK decided to go on a morning jog. Though he knew the forest was filled with dangerous digimon. Not that he cared, really. Halfway through, though, he heard a voice.
Voice: In the beginning, it was a world of light. In the end, it fell to the darkness. Then, shall the angels rise, to protect their homeworld from destruction. The light, the dark, two opposing sides. In the end, light shall triumph. Yet, where there is light, there is darkness.
TK: Very nice, James did you make it up by yourself?
James: Naw...I remember hearing it when I was young. Though, I must admit, the scenery it provides is quite familiar.
TK: Still, it was very nice.
James: Thanks. We better get back, Rose and Kari must be awake by now...not to mention worried sick.
TK: hehe...that would resemble Kari a lot.
James (rolls his eyes): Tell me about it...
TK: ok...let's go.
When they get back home, they find Kari and Rosalyn with a very stern look on their faces. James and TK look at each other. James giving TK a 'told you' look. TK just shrugged and kissed Kari. James did the same with Rosalyn. Suddenly, a loud explosion is heard in the horizon. They run out to see a pillar of smoke coming from Izzy, Willis, and Joe's house.
James: Oh shit! Rosalyn, armor up and let's go!
Rosalyn: Right. -Lifts up her hands- Rosalyn, Armor of Loyalty...Armor UP!
James (does the same): James...Armor of Unity...Armor UP!
Rosalyn (looks at Kari and TK): You two remember what to do?
James: Remember...focus on your crest.
TK/Kari: RIGHT! Takeru...Kari...Armor of Hope...Armor of Light...Armor UP! -Flash of light and TK is wearing an orange armor and Angemon's staff. Kari is wearing a white armor and Angewomon's bow- Ready!
James (impressed): Made it on the first time...(focus' back on the mission) OK! Let's GO! -Takes off, the rest are following-
When they get there, they see Izzy, Joe, and Willis being cornered by five DarkTyranomons.
James: This is NOT my day.
TK: Tell me about it.
James (shouts at Joe, Izzy, and Willis): Armor up you guys! NOW!
Izzy/Joe/Willis: RIGHT!
Izzy: Koushiro...Armor of Knowledge...Armor UP!
Joe: Jyou...Armor of Reliability...Armor UP!
Willis: Willis...Armor of Miracles...Armor UP!
In a flash, Izzy, Joe, and Willis are wearing they're purple, blue, and golden armors.
Willis: HyperBlast! -A big ball of energy comes out of his twin cannons-
Joe: Mega Slash! -Three crescents come out of a the blaster he has on the end of his right hand-
Izzy: Power Surge! - A shock wave, just like an EMP shock wave, radiates from him. -
James: Destiny of Evil! -He crosses his arms on his chests, fists closed, and he's sweating-
Rosalyn: Oh my god! Kari! Get everyone out of here! Go to Tai's house! NOW!
Kari: Why? -Points at James- What is he doing?
Rosalyn: Destiny of Evil...It will create an explosion that will destroy or purge all evil for a 2-mile radius. You're armor won't stand it! Now LEAVE!
TK (grabs Kari): You heard her! Let's GO, Kari!
Joe: I'll tell Matt to go to Tai's...(flies away)
Izzy: Kari, TK, Willis...We have to go! NOW! He won't be long to release the energy.
Willis: Kari! Come on!
Kari: bu...but...James...Rosalyn...They won't make it.
TK: Izzy! Grab Kari and fly out of here with Willis!
Izzy: What about you?
TK: someone's gotta get them outta here. That's me.
Willis: Ok...see you later...Izzy, Come on!
Izzy: Right (grabs a screaming Kari and flies away)
TK: Thanks Izz...(flies towards Rosalyn and James)
Rosalyn: You ready?
TK: yeah...
James: TK...why are you doing this? Kari might never see you again...
TK: I have hopes that we will survive...Besides, If I don't do this, they might die from other creatures...
James: heh...OK! Here WE GO!!!!!!! -Releases the energy into the pack of Tyranomons-
TK/Rosalyn: Teleport...NOW!
Flash of light, then nothing...
Meanwhile at Tai's house, in the living room...
Tai: HE WHAT?!?!?!?
Izzy (holding his helmet): You heard me, he said to leave with Kari and Willis and to come here.
HUGE explosion is heard...they turn their heads towards it.
Sora: does that mean they're...(weakly) dead?
Willis (also holding his helmet): We don't know...TK told me to wait for them here for an hour...(check's his watch) it's past an hour...I'm sorry...
Mimi (sobs): I...can't...believe...they're...dead!
Matt: Little bro...why?
TK (from atop the balcony that looks into the living room): Why? Because I'm a stubborn asshole, that's why!
All: TK!
TK (jumps into the living room): that's my name last time I checked.
Kari (jabs him in the stomach): DON'T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN! (Kisses him, she doesn't have a helmet)
TK: I missed you too, Kari. I see you have you're brother's punch (rubs his stomach)
James: He was pretty brave to stay there.
Rosalyn: and pretty honorable.
Matt: TK...next time you pull a stunt like that, I will personally make sure you regret it.
Mimi: got that right.
Kari: nu-uh, I get to kill him.
TK: What's this? I just saved you from potential enemies, and you're going to kill me?
Tai: got that right.
Michael: but since you're alive, and not all of our houses are destroyed...at least, I hope not...I suggest we PARTY!
James: I'm in!
Rosalyn: Me too!
All: YEAH!
Matt brought whatever drinks he could find, Tai and Sora set up the house, Rosalyn, Mimi, Catherine, and Kari brought whatever fruits they could get and TK and James brought the meat and started cooking it. Soon they were chowing down and chilling out. TK, James, Rosalyn, and Kari where talking in front of the fireplace, Tai, Matt, Izzy, Joe, Michael, and Willis were talking about the different armors, and Mimi, Catherine, and Sora were talking about they're respective others.
TK: Yeah, well, that Teleport sure beats the hell outta you.
Rosalyn: Tell me about it...
Kari: I'm just grateful you people aren't hurt.
James: I feel like a train hit me...
TK: no duh...that attack requires way too much energy.
In another section of the room...
Izzy: I think the reason we get different armors and weapons is because each armor corresponds to a different crest.
Tai: In English?
Willis: Each crest has a different armor.
Tai: oh......
Matt: but why the different weapons?
Michael: I suppose each weapon we have is simply a replacement for our digimon's powers.
-Flashback-
Izzy: Power Surge!
Joe: Mega Slash!
Willis: HyperBlast!
-End of flashback-
Izzy: Yeah...that would explain the weapons...
Joe: I mean...TK got Angemon's staff...and Kari got Angewomon's bow...
Tai: yeah...still, why were Izzy, Joe and Willis attacked in the first place?
Gennai (walks in): I'll tell you why...
Davis (walks in too): We got another Digimon Emperor loose...
Cody: We found out right after we met Gennai at his house.
Tai (nervous smile): you're joking...right?
Sora: But...How?
Ken: I'm the only one that ever became that here!
James: I think I know how he came...
Rosalyn: How?
James: He opened the portal that sucked me into this place...(turns his head) which means...We're at war...
Tai: WAR????????
Gennai: yes...war...He invaded the Digiworld with a HUGE army of men...and is infecting virus digimon so that he becomes they're master. This unlike any black gears or dark rings you've ever encountered. These can only be cured by death. If you kill one of his men...they will return to their world unharmed...but beware...they are as powerful as you can imagine.
Tai (looks at James): ok...you've fought this guy before...what do we do?
James: get out of here...NOW!
Sora: what is wrong with you?
Michael: Catherine? Do you remember what happened last time?
Catherine: yeah...Guys? We have to get out...NOW! Something bad is going to happen.
Matt: yeah...she's right...we better leave...
Mimi: something isn't right here...
Davis: people...
James: Here it comes...
Tai: What is coming? (A LOUD explosion answers him) oh...THAT is coming...ok, people, move OUT! (Motions them with his hands)
All: right!
James: Davis! Cody! Armor up! We're gonna need your help!
Cody/Davis: Got it! Cody...Davis...Armor of Knowledge...Armor of Courage...Armor UP!
Davis/Cody: Ready!
James: ok...Willis, Joe, Izzy, TK, and Kari...follow me!
Rosalyn: Tai, Mimi, Sora, and Matt! You follow me!
Tai/Sora/Matt/Mimi: Right! (Leave out the door running)
Gennai: I'm going back my house, consider it your new base.
James: You got it! (Gives him a thumbs up) Ok, you guys! Ready?
Kari: Yeah!
James: Here we go!
(A/N: if you have the digimon 02 evolution song, Break up, this would be a good time to play it.)
Outside, they find this BIG group of soldiers and digimon.
James: FIRE!
Willis: HyperBlast!
Joe: Mega Slash!
Izzy: Power Surge!
James: Fury of the People!
TK: Holy Beam!
Kari: Arrow of Light!
Davis: Fire Twister!
Cody: Mega Drill!
Each attack was thrown at a different group of people. When the smoke dissipated, though, only the digimon were really hurt by the attacks. They, however, only fazed the men.
Cody: James...We may have a problem...
Davis: Got that right...
Soldier #1: Mega Shotgun!
The blast caught Davis right in the chest.
Cody: DAVIS!
Soldier #2: Hyper Shot!
Cody: Wha-UGH!
The blast had caught Cody totally offguard and hit him in the chest, hard.
James: DAMN! Kari, Willis, Joe, Izzy...Take the others to safety! TK and me will hold them off!
Kari: but...
TK: DO IT, KARI! Please! (Mouths I love you to her. She nods and Takes Cody, Willis takes Davis)
TK (looks at James): Ready?
James: As I'll ever be.
TK/James: Let's do it!
TK: Holy BEAM!
James: Tornado of Fate!
The attacks faze the men again, but kill the digimons.
TK: I hate doing this...
James: you and me both...
TK: Why did you want me to stay? They will overcome us easily!
James: When I tell you to, focus on your crest as much as you can.
TK: Huh?
James: Just do it!
TK (confused): uh...ok... (Begins to concentrate hard on his crest. It begins to glow.)
James does the same, with similar results.
James/TK: Crest Armor...ENERGIZE!
James: Crest of Unity...
TK: Crest of Hope...
They're armor begins to glow and disappear, only to be replaced by a new, more advanced armor. James' armor is light blue with a smooth surface, and a gun at the end of each fist. His helmet now covers everything on his head except for his eyes. TK's armor is still orange, though white at some parts, with a smooth surface and a huge sword rests at his side. His helmet only covers the sides, back and top of his head.
TK: I hope you people down there are ready for this...
Soldier #1: What the hell is going on here?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Soldier #2: I don't like it...
James: MEGA FORCE!
TK (grabs his sword): SLASH OF JUSTICE!
Soldiers: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!
Huge blast, then nothing. Meanwhile, in the distance...
Kari: What was that? (Sees huge pillar of smoke in the horizon) oh no...TK...
Rosalyn: Are they ok? I mean...I can't sense them...
Kari: I don't care! I'm going back!
Willis: Wait! I think I see something coming! I don't recognize them...Ok, people (looks at Joe, Izzy, and Davis) Get ready to fight!
Tai: Wait! I think we better hide on this one...
Izzy: I agree. We don't know how strong they might be.
Willis: ok...hide in those trees! NOW!
As they finish hiding, the two figures that were coming land in the clearing.
Unknown: I can sense them...They're close by...
Unknown #2: At least the report we have confirms the destruction of the other two.
Unknown: Yeah. I bet they died horribly. (Starts laughing)
Unknown #2: yeah (starts laughing too)
Kari (whispering, with tears in her eyes): TK...no...please...no
Davis: I can't believe this...TK...no...
Michael: James...we never repaid you...
Catherine: please...no...
TK (from above the two unknown people): Never, EVER, trust a report.
James (from next to TK): Yeah, It could be you're downfall.
Unknown: What the? You two are supposed to be dead!
TK: says who?
Unknown: says ME! (Lunges at TK)
TK: Holy Slash!
Unknown: UGH...(grabs his stomach) who the hell are you? (Falls down, dead)
Unknown #2: NO! (Glares at TK) you asked for it! (Whistles, a big quantity a men come out) try and beat us all at the same time...(laughs)
Kari (comes out of her hiding place): Who said they were alone?
Willis: Yeah! Says who?
The others come out. They are still outnumbered. Tai, Sora, Mimi, Ken, Michael, Catherine, Yolei, and Matt armor up.
Tai: Taichi...Armor of Courage...Armor UP!
Sora: Sora...Armor of Love...Armor UP!
Mimi: Mimi...Armor of Purity...Armor UP!
Matt: Yamato...Armor of Friendship...Armor UP!
Michael: Michael...Armor of Honesty...Armor UP!
Catherine: Catherine...Armor of Life...Armor UP!
Ken: Ken...Armor of Kindness...Armor UP! (His crest glows on his chest) Crest Armor...ENERGIZE!
Yolei: Miyako...Armor of Love...Armor UP!
Yolei: Ken...why did you armor up again?
Ken: I have no idea...
TK: Ken! Get over here! James and me are going to need your help!
Ken: Right!
The rest have taken out swords and start fighting the soldiers.
Tai: This (slash) is (ducks) is (dodges) going (slashes) to (attacks) be (backs up) hard.
Sora: We can't hurt them! They're too powerful!
TK: Energize your crest Armor! Just focus on everything your crest means!
All: Right!
Tai starts to focus on they're journey in the Digiworld, and when he confessed to Sora that he loved her. Sora focuses on the love she has for each friend she has. As the love for her mom. Matt, on his friendships. Mimi, on the time she was with the Geckomons. Willis, When Kokomon went crazy and was brought back. The rest just focused on their crests. Suddenly, a flash of light invaded each of them. They began to Armor up to the next stage.
Unknown #2: Damn...they're too powerful! (Cries out to his men) Fall BACK! (Looks at TK) Beware, I will avenge my friend! I will avenge my friend, Tim! Remember me, remember Takeru! (Leaves)
Tai (pale): di...did you just hear what he said?
TK (pale, VERY pale): yeah...his...name...it's me...
Matt: No Way!
Mimi: I must be having a bad dream...
James: This wasn't unexpected...
Michael (turns towards him): What are you talking about?
James: I'm saying that they ARE you...the are the you from MY world. They are dark beings...not by will of course...they are the key to saving both worlds...To win...we must kill them...all of them...
Tai (laughs lightly): That's a good one...(points at himself) I have to kill myself? You must be joking!
Sora (jabs Tai): Tai...be serious...this isn't a joke...
Tai (looks at the other's faces): I see...it's that bad...
Catherine: I have to fight myself...why?
James: The Emperor converted them to evil by infecting them with a virus.
TK: If that's the only way to help our world and yours...(pulls out his sword) then so be it.
Kari (looks at TK): Are you sure?
TK (looks at the others): If we don't do anything, BOTH our world and his, countless people, will suffer because we refused to fight ourselves. Is that fair?
Tai (pulls out his sword): No...no it isn't...I'm in.
Sora (pulls out her sword): So am I
Matt: I'm not going to stand by and see people suffer...(pulls out his sword) I'm in.
Mimi: So am I.
Michael: I will not have people suffer because of me...Count me in.
Joe: Me too
Izzy: I see no other way to do this...so, I guess I'm in.
Willis: I'm definitely in. Terriermon would of wanted me to.
Catherine: I am in...all the way...
Kari: I will not stand and see you and others suffer...so (pulls out her sword) I'm in.
Ken: Wormmon would of liked me to...I will fight.
Yolei: So will I
Davis: Me too
Cody: I will definitely come. Grandpa would have liked that.
Rosalyn: I know I'm coming.
James: That settles it (pulls out his sword and stretches it out. The other stretch theirs out on his) We will fight...not for honor...not for personal reasons...but for life's sake...for both our worlds...ARE YOU IN?
All: YEAH!
They retreat to Gennai's house where they go to sleep, except for Izzy, Tai, James, Matt, and Gennai. A map of the Digiworld, courtesy of Izzy's laptop, was projected before them.
James: This is where the Emperor is based (points at a location on the map)
Izzy (examines the map): that's on Server...and in the mountain regions...near where Tentomon and me fought Vamdemon. (Shudders)
Tai (helmet is off and on the table): So...what do we do? (Looks at Gennai)
Gennai: We know that only the virus type Digimon can be infected by the virus, so we can expect help from data and vaccine type digimon. We also know that his soldiers are very powerful and are now in the progress to upgrade their armor and weapons. The upgrade base is here (presses a button, a 3-D map of a single location appears)
Matt (holding his helmet): That's Infinity Mountain...right here, on File island...what's it doing here? (Looks at James)
James: The portal was used to transport buildings too...there was a miscalculation and it was teleported there. This is bad...
Matt: why not move it?
James: Are you crazy? Look at the size of the compound! It's huge! By the time half gets away, we would of have destroyed the other half.
Tai: It IS huge...about the size of a small city...
Izzy: Damn...what the hell where they thinking?
Gennai: You're guess is as good as mine is.
James: Anyway...we have to destroy that compound...fast...before it produces anymore soldiers and become a pain in the ass.
Tai (looks at Matt): I like him...
Matt (grins): yeah...he's as normal as they come...
James: I heard that!
Gennai: Anyway...we can destroy that compound...
Izzy: whenever he has that look...It usually means there's a new Dark Master after us. Ok, Gennai...what's the catch?
Gennai: As Tai had said, That compound is the size of a small city...We don't have enough power to completely destroy it...not even wipe out half...
Tai: So? What do we do instead?
Gennai: In this building... (Points at a building in the map. An architectural map of the building appears)...Is stored the main power core of the compound...
Izzy (Eyes widen): Oh...I like it...
James (understand the plan): I don't.
Tai: What are you three talking about?
Matt: Yeah...Fill us in.
Izzy (turns towards them): A core Meltdown. Total destruction of the compound...plus an EMP shockwave of a 1-mile radius. They won't have a chance to escape.
Matt: I don't get it...why don't you like it James?
James: How much time will we have to get out, Izzy?
Izzy: 5 min...oh...I see...this is quite unexpected...
Tai: WE won't have time to get away in time...
Matt: the explosion'd annihilate US.
Gennai: I see...this is quite depressing
All think for a while.
James (comes up with something. His eyes have a twinkle in them): Izzy...how much time would you need to build a device that would be powerful enough to contain the explosion to the city?
Izzy: I dunno...4-5 days, why? Oh...OH...I see...(looks up and smiles) I like it.
James (explains to the others): The building is on the edge of the city. BIG mistake. Izzy will build a device that will contain the explosion to the city, only. We will be unharmed. I will need TK, Kari, and Rosalyn for this mission.
Tai: Granted...do what you have to do...just bring back Kari safe.
Matt: and TK too.
James: They'll be all right.
Tai: Well then...better hit the sack...what time is it, Izz?
Izzy: We have about 8 hours to sleep.
Matt: good, cuz I'm wasted.
James: See you tomorrow. (Leaves for his bed. TK is waiting for him.)
TK: How'd it go?
James: You'll see...(smiles) right now...let's grab some shuteye.
TK: I'm with you.
They both go to sleep. Far away...in the Emperor's Palace...
Emperor: They did WHAT?
Takeru: They went to the next stage, without any help of some sort...
Emperor (furious): This is impossible! Intolerable! How DARE they?
Taichi: Sir...they are very powerful...they wiped out a full regiment of our men...and that was only two of them.
Emperor (paces around): Don't you think I know THAT?
Koushiro: I don't see how they made it to the next stage without help, though...It normally takes the OZ-chemical to make it work. At least the facility is still functioning...and the new one is almost completed, sir.
Emperor (throws up his hands): Finally! Some good news!
Yamato: They have proven themselves as good warriors, though.
Hikari: Especially the one in Orange armor, likewise for the one in Black armor.
Sora (evil one): Yeah...but the one in the red one was a skilled sword fighter...
Takeru: What do we do now, sir?
Emperor: We wait...for now, they have the upper hand. Yet, soon, it will be our turn to strike...(laughs maniacally)
The next day...at Gennai's, Tai, Izzy, Matt, and James are explaining the mission, with the help of the holographic map.
Tai: Right...so, James, Kari, TK, and Rosalyn will infiltrate the building while we create a diversion...here. (Points at a building two blocks from the main building) It should give them enough time to get in, get out, and run for it. It goes for us too. By the way...NO heroics...got it, people? James gets his old rank of admiral for this war. Izzy will be our intelligence, and Matt and me are the leaders...any questions? Yes, Sora?
Sora: What about us? What do we get?
Tai: Matt...
Matt: (looks at him and nods): You all get different ranks depending on how well we've seen you fight. Sora, Yolei, Mimi, and Catherine are all Lieutenants, right now, Michael, Joe, Willis, Ken, Cody, Davis...you're all captains...TK, Kari, Rosalyn...you are all vice-admirals on this one. Congratulations. Now...if that's settled, let's get to work, people. Come on! Move! (Orders them out, then looks at Tai) this is going to be hard...
Tai (rolls his eyes): don't I know it... (Turns to Gennai) Before we came here, you told us a new evil was after us in OUR world. Exactly WHAT evil?
Gennai: The Emperor's Assassins. They are skilled beyond imagination; they have cloaking ability, very powerful too. You would have not even made it to the next day, alive.
Matt (thinks): I see...well, I think we're grateful...yet also a little pissed because you brought us in the middle of a war.
Gennai: Yes...this was unexpected...I'm sorry. This was never meant to be.
Tai: This isn't your fault. This was unexpected; it will be another adventure for all of us.
Matt (rolls his eyes): I hope your right...
Meanwhile...in the compound...
James (looks from his corner): Ok...no one in sight...let's go...
TK/Kari/Rosalyn: Right! (Move towards the compound)
James (stops at the front of the building and looks up): Right...(turns towards the others) ready?
TK: yeah...
Kari: Let's do this...
Rosalyn: Here we go!
An explosion is heard. They take off towards the top of the building. Meanwhile...Two blocks from there...
Tai: Willis! Hit that wall! (Points)
Willis: Right! HYPERBLAST! (The blast hits the wall, making it fall on the enemy)
Matt: How much time must we stay here?
Izzy: Until James calls us!
Sora: I don't know if we can stand for that long...(As if to make her point, the soldiers under the wall come out from under it)...I hate it when I'm right...
Mimi: Matt...honey...we won't be able to hold out...with only Ken being able to effectively hurt them...and he's hurt... (Points at Ken, who is on the ground with Joe looking him over)
Willis: She's right, Matt, we won't be able to hold out for more than 15 more minutes.
Tai: This is one battle we can't win...and we knew it...I hate to admit it, but we have to retreat...
Michael (gets hit by the enemy): AAAAAAAAAH!
Catherine: Michael! NO!
Willis: That's it! I'm going over towards them!
Matt: Me too! (Flies towards Catherine and the downed Michael)
Michael (smiles weakly): hey...guys...ow...you better get the hell outta here...ow...before you get caught...forget about me...
Matt: Oh no we won't! We won't leave you!
Willis: We never, EVER, abandon friends!
Catherine: I need you, Michael! Don't say those things!
Michael: heh...I thought so...I knew I wouldn't of had convinced you...you guys are great...too bad...cough...It has to end like this...(passes out)
Matt: MICHAEL! (Crest glows)
Willis: NO! (Crest glows)
Catherine (crying): no...NO! (Crest is glowing)
Soldier #1: What the hell?
Matt/Willis/Catherine: Crest Armor...ENERGIZE!
Catherine: Crest of Life...
Matt: Crest of Friendship...
Willis: Crest of Miracles...
They're armor falls off; they begin to glow pure white before a new armor begins to form on them. Catherine's armor is now pure white; she has wings coming out of the back of the armor. Basically, she looks like an angel, but with a sword. Matt's armor is now blue. His shoulders are covered with protectors who have a single spike on them. His sword has grown for about 5 inches more.
The same happened to Willis, except his armor is gold and his guns have widened a bit (10 inches every way).
Michael (opens his eyes): What the...I feel a new energy coming from within me...(stands up, fully ready for battle) Hell YEAH! I feel like new!
Ken (stands up): I feel totally energized...(gets ready to fight) OK! Let's do this!
Joe (surprised by Ken's outburst): WHOAH!
Tai (smiling): Mimi...looks like you're fiancé has saved the day...
Mimi: That's my man...
Sora: Yeah...but I still think Tai is better.
Tai: I try.
Sora: He tries.
Matt: If the chitchat is over, Let's fight!
Tai (with renewed energy): YEAH! (Slashes at a soldier)
All: CHARGE! (Run at the enemy)
Soldiers: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Meanwhile, in the central building...
TK: Slash of Justice!
Guard: AAAAAAAAAH! (Falls down and disappears)
James: How much time till the girls are done?
TK: Don't ask me!
In the central core room...
Rosalyn: There...it should be put for meltdown...
Kari: Good, now, let's get out of here!
They run out the door. To find the boys waiting for them.
James: You done?
Rosalyn: Yes, smart-ass, now...Let's get the fuck out of here!
TK: I concur. (They break a window a go flying out)
James (types a message on his communicator): GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE!
Meanwhile, Izzy gets the message
Izzy: They did it! RUN FOR IT!
Tai: You heard the man! LET'S GO!
All: RIGHT!
They start running or flying out of the city.
Meanwhile, the core starts to shiver, glow, and radiating energy.
Soldier (bursts into the room): What is going on here? (Looks at the core) oh no...no...(turns and shouts) GET THE HELL OUT! IT"S GONNA BLOW!
Too late. An explosion is seen out in the distance. In the Emperor's palace...
Soldier (holographic projection): Sir...something is wrong here...the lights are going out...electric fuses are blowing up!
Koushiro: I see...very well...what else?
Soldier: The facility isn't working anymore an-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! (Projection disappears)
Koushiro (looks at the comms officer): What is going on? Why has the communication been interrupted?
Comms officer (pale): Sir...the facility...It's gone...everything...wiped out...
Koushiro: I hope you're joking...
Comms officer: not at all...Patrol #2 has confirmed that a HUGE explosion occurred on Infinity Mountain.
Koushiro (bangs his fist on the table): DAMN IT! How did this happen?
Comms officer: Patrol #2 reports having detected an unusually high amount of radiation coming out of the area.
Koushiro: I see...a core meltdown...these rebels aren't so dumb after all. I need to talk to the Emperor. (Turns to the comms officer) Good work.
Comms officer (salutes): Thank you, SIR! (Goes back to his post)
Koushiro leaves towards the throne room, where the rest of the people were gathered.
Taichi: I suppose this isn't a social call...what is it?
Sora: Yeah...I was busy.
Koushiro: You're love making can wait for this (they are about to protest, when the Emperor walks in) Good morning, Sire.
Emperor: Good morning, why did you call on me? I was sleeping.
Koushiro (addresses them all): Exactly five minutes ago, the Upgrade Facility on Infinity Mountain was wiped out. (They are shocked)
Emperor (pale): WHAT?
Koushiro: You all heard me. The facility was TOTALLY wiped out. No survivors, no nothing. They all died on the spot.
Taichi: Impossible! Yamato's guards and mine were all stationed there! There is no way they could of destroyed the whole thing!
Koushiro (shouts at him): THEN HOW COME THE FACILITY WAS BLOODY WIPED FROM THE FACE OF THE PLANET? HOW LONG SINCE YOU LAST HEARD FROM THEM?
Emperor: Now, now, Koushiro...no need to shout...(smiles)
Koushiro: I'm sorry, you're Excellency.
Emperor: That's better. (Turns to Taichi) How long since you've heard of them?
Taichi: a day.
Emperor (smile widens): A day...one full day...how can you be sure that they are alive then?
Taichi: I can't
Emperor: Good...at least you confess not being sure. (Turns to Koushiro) How did it blow up?
Koushiro: Its core was tampered with and caused a Core Meltdown. No one survived.
Yamato: Are you sure?
Koushiro: No one could of made it out in time...the core only needs five minutes to detonate on these cases.
Yamato: I hate to admit it...but he's right on this one, Taichi. None of our soldiers could have made it.
Taichi (grabs his head): I still don't see how they made it in...
Jyou: How about an air strike?
Taichi (looks at him): What?
Jyou: Pretty simple...they could of come in from the top. Couldn't they?
Taichi (straightens up): That makes sense...My best guards were stationed on the lower levels. Only the Intermediate class soldiers were on the top.
Yamato: Same for me...
Mimi: Jyou...I'm impressed...
Jyou: I try...
Emperor: That's why you're co-head of the spy network.
Jyou: True.
Takeru: I'm still wondering about something...
Hikari: Which is?
Takeru: Taichi...what orders did your men have?
Taichi: To stay on post...
Takeru: And if a problem aroused in the city?
Taichi: They were to go help...
Takeru (nods): Makes sense...you see, before the facility was wiped out...I got a transmission saying that a group of armored soldiers were attacking the city...(lifts his head up to look at Taichi) and that was two blocks from the facility...
Taichi: I get it...a diversion...ingenious...
Yamato: I agree...
Sora: They purposely drove out your guards out of the facility, so that they could work in peace...
Mimi: Very ingenious...
Hikari: They are worthy adversaries...
Emperor: Another reason to get rid of them...I suppose you all got your orders, correct?
All: yes, Sire.
Emperor: Good...get to it. I have a trip to the beach in an hour. I hope you will be effective governors of your provinces.
All: We will try, Sire.
Emperor: Good. Dismissed. (Turns and leaves)
At Gennai's house...
Tai: Ok, people...here's what we know...the facility, all of it, was destroyed, so good work. (Applause) HOWEVER (quiet) we may have a problem...we have learned that a new facility, just like this one, only bigger, was finished on Server two days ago. Since TK and James are out hunting the remnants of the enemy on this island...we will start without them. In order to control our forces everywhere...Yamato, Gennai, James, and me have agreed upon assigning different regions to each of you. Each region has a different army waiting for you. (Turns to Mimi) Yes, Mimi?
Mimi: How did you get the men?
Sora: Yeah...How, Taichi?
Tai (looks at Gennai): Gennai...
Gennai: Ok...what you are about to hear you won't like...
Michael: Go on...
Gennai: Since the disposal of the Emperor is necessary for the safety of BOTH our worlds...
Catherine: You didn't do what I think you did, did you?
Gennai: Which is?
Catherine: Tell our parents about this...
Gennai: Oh...no...of course not.
All (except Tai, Gennai, Matt, and Izzy): Phew...
Gennai: Instead...I told the whole world.
Silence,
Sora/Mimi/Michael/Willis: YOU WHAT?
Ken: You're joking, I hope...
Gennai: Nope...
Tai: He had Matt's permission...as Izzy's and mine. We thought of it as the best option...
Sora: You are aware, that our parents know now, don't you?
Tai: Yeah...that's why they e-mailed us saying they understand...that they are proud of you...and that they know we'll do as well as with MaloMyotismon...so don't worry about them. The major powers granted us their armies. I gotta go and make plans with Izz. (Leaves)
Michael: They said that?
Kari: I think they would...
Sora: Mom...
Willis (standing up): I know I'm going to fight.
Kari: After what he said?
Willis: Even more after what he said.
Sora: But...doesn't this depress you? We never thought about them in battle! We never thought what it would mean to them if we died.
Willis: I know that...but I'm going to fight. My parents are proud of me that I'm doing this. I'm going to make them prouder by saving them.
Michael: He's right...I'm in...all the way.
Sora/Mimi: So are we.
Rest: So are we!
From a corner...
Matt (to Tai): Told you they'd do it.
Tai: Good ol' Will. Trust him to make things a lot better than they are.
Matt: I agree.
Tai: Let's go, pal. We got A LOT of planning to do.
Matt: I'm impressed...you actually like it.
Tai: Shut up, loser. (Both laugh)
Two days later...In the new underwater base, two miles out in the ocean...
Tai: Right...Sora, you and me, we get the area around the Koromon village and the mountains. Matt, you and Mimi get the Northern parts of the Continent. Michael, you and Catherine get the Western part, Willis, you Izzy and Joe get the South. James, Rosalyn, you get the Eastern part. Kari, you and TK get the Central Area. Gennai will control File Island. Let us be reminded of the oath we took when we found out about the other uses. Do not go rebel on this cause. Remember that the fate of all three worlds lie in our hands. Get to it people! (All leave)
Matt: I see our old leader hasn't died with age...
Tai: Are you kidding? I've been waiting for this for a LONG time. Another adventure. School was getting a bit of a pain. This is a welcomed break from daily life.
Matt: I couldn't agree more.
Tai: I wish our parents were here...
Matt: Me too...
Gennai (runs into the hallway): Matt! Tai! (Turns to see them) Oh! There you are! We have a code blue!
Tai: Blue? What's going on, Gennai?
Gennai: A missile is headed towards here!
Tai (looks at Matt): Evacuate the base! NOW!
Gennai: You got it! (Runs towards the nearest radio room)
Matt: We better get out too.
Tai: Yeah...Did James and TK come back?
Matt: Not that I know of...
Tai: Call them and tell them to find the fucker that did this!
Matt: Got it! (Runs towards the comms room)
Tai (rolls his eyes): So much for a break... (Goes to the nearest exit)
Outside...
Sora (motions soldiers out): MOVE MOVE MOVE! Not much time left! COME ON! GET OUT! (Sees Tai) Tai! Over here!
Tai (runs towards her): How's the evac going?
Sora: We don't have enough boats for everyone!
Izzy (comes near them): This isn't good...our ships are depleting in numbers by the instant...
Joe: We need to get out of here!
Tai: Not until everyone is safe!
Mimi: Kari just left with the second group. We only have for 15 groups more. There are enough here for 20.
Tai: I don't care! I am NOT leaving till everyone is safe!
Izzy (hears a beep in his communicator): Incoming message (puts a finger in his ear and looks down)...yes...I see...patch it trough...thank you. (Looks up) We're receiving a message from an unknown source...
Hologram appears...
Unknown: This is Freedom Squadron of the Reconnaissance Patrol 14...need any help, down there, Tai?
Tai (smiles big): James! You little tweed! Get down here!
James: I copy that. We got the bastards for you, Matt.
Matt: I knew it! They did it!
Izzy: Radar confirms 14 fighters accompanying 5 transports. (Looks at them) We can get everyone out.
Tai: Great! Get ready for airlift!
All: Right! (Joe, Mimi, Izzy, and Sora leave)
Michael: You are one hell of a leader, Tai. You too, Matt
Tai/Matt: I try
Matt/Tai: he tries.
Tai/Matt: We try (laugh)
Catherine: You're both nuts.
Davis (waves at Tai): Tai! The transports are here!
Cody: We got about ten more minutes till impact.
Matt: More than enough time.
Willis: I think it's time to go, Tai, Matt... (Motions two soldiers in)
Soldier #1: Sir! We will be you're escort.
Tai: I gotta get used to this 'sir' thing. Ok, soldier, take us to our planes.
James (still in the air): TK! We're gonna cover 'em, got it?
TK: Got it, Freedom leader.
The planes take off...10 minutes later, the facility blows up.
TK: That was awfully close...
James: Heads up! Full squad on Air group 2!
TK: Sora's in there!
James (rolls his eyes): Greeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaat! Everyone, intercept that squad! (Dives his plane out of formation)
Fighters: Roger, Lead. (Follow James)
Soon, It's more of a killing frenzy than an air combat. Freedom squadron suffers one ejection. The enemy squadron was not so lucky though...13 out of the 15 fighters were down. No ejection.
TK: Why don't they give up?
James: They're training forbids it.
TK: I see...(spots something) James! Watch out! Missile on your tail!
Too late...the missile hits the fighter's wing, making it go out of control.
TK: James! EJECT!
James: Can't...eject...window...stuck...
TK: NO! JAMES!
James: Hope...you...win...the...war...kid...see...ya.
TK: I will not let you die! You won't die! You're time isn't now! (Crest glows)
James (opens his eyes): No...you're right...I won't die! I WON'T LET THEM KILL ME! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! (Cabin bursts open with energy)
TK: Freedom 3...you're in command for now. Cover me!
Freedom 3: Got it, boss. You heard the man! Cover him!
TK: Takeru...Armor of Hope...ARMOR UP! (Comes out of his cabin, fully armored.
James: Glad to see you came. I sense that a being of ENORMOUS energy is closing in.
TK: Freedom 3...Get the hell outta here!
Freedom 3: Got it! Come on guys; Let's get the hell outta here! (Fighters leave)
TK: Crest Armor...ENERGIZE!
TK: Crest of Hope...Armor 4...ARMOR UP!
A new armor, this one with boosters, forms up on him...He has a helmet tat looks like a normal fighter helmet, except higher. His sword is the same, but this time has crescents sticking outwards from his arms. The being arrives.
Takeru: I'm impressed...you beat all of my Doom squadron...Of course...they weren't the best...but enough of that...let's fight!
James: I agree.
TK: Finally.
Takeru: You (points at James) stay out of this...this is between the Holder of Hope and me, the Holder of Dismay.
James: No wa-
TK: James...I think he's right...stay out of this one...(turns to him) get to the others...tell them not to wait for me.
James (nods): Good luck, TK. (flies away)
TK (looks to Takeru): Now...I suggest we start...I got my girlfriend to comfort...
Takeru: So do I... (Lunges at TK)
TK (evades the attack): SLASH OF JUSTICE!
Takeru: CUT OF DESPAIR!
The attacks hit each other. Knocking them down for a moment. Then, they get back up.
TK: Holy Crescent! (The crescents on his arms begin to glow, and then several crescents come out shooting at Takeru)
Takeru (gets hit by the attack): Very good...let's see how you counter THIS! Beam of DEATH!
TK: oh...shit... (The attack is nearing TK)
Takeru: Time to die, TK, Holder of Hope! (Laughs)
TK: Never! HOLY BEAM! (The attack isn't slowing down)
Kari: HEAVEN'S FURY! (The attack decimates the enemy attack)
TK (looks at Kari, dumbstruck): Kari? What are you doing here?
Kari: Gotta look after my boyfriend (kisses him) now...I suggest we get this creep.
Takeru: Some other time, maybe...Right now...I suggest you look out, miss. (Laughs maniacally)
TK: What are you talking about?
Takeru only points up and flies away. When they look up, they see a huge ball of energy coming down on them.
TK: Oh shit!
Kari: We gotta get outta here, TK!
TK: we don't have enough time!
Kari (looks at him, teary-eyed): I don't wanna die!
TK: Me either...but we can't escape now...it's too late...I love you Kari...
Kari: Me too...TK...
TK: Goodbye, Kari.
Kari: Good bye...TK.
Just then, a figure gets in the way on the blast, hitting him at full force.
TK: What? (Looks up) JAMES! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
James (looks down and smiles): Heh...I owed you, bro...Looks like Its my time to go...Take care of Kari...and tell Rosalyn...that I'm sorry that I couldn't say goodbye...but to wait for me...see...ya...bro (falls into TK's arms)
TK (shouts in the air): NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Kari: TK...is he...?
TK: I don't know...I don't know...
Later, at the new base, deep in the woods...
TK: He was a good man...a brave warrior...an excellent pilot...and a good friend...and I let him die...(breaks down) I...LET...HIM...DIE! (Bangs his fist)
Tai: We're sorry, TK...
Matt: He was willing to die for others...he was an honorable fighter...he died a hero's death...
Catherine: Michael and me still owed him for saving us...now...he's gone...(breaks down)
Kari: His last words were "Take care of Kari, and tell Rosalyn that I'm sorry that I couldn't say goodbye, but to wait for me"...what did he mean...?
Rosalyn: He means...that he's not dead yet...he's alive.
TK (looks up): WHAT?
Rosalyn: since he and I came from the same world as the enemy...we both would go back home...fine...he just needs to get back now...
Tai: That's great!
Matt: YEAH!
Rosalyn: thing is...the only portal that connects to our world is guarded by the Emperor's finest general's...the other you's...until they are defeated...he won't come back...
Michael: That settles it, then! We go off to get them!
TK: No...
Willis: I don't understand, TK...why?
TK: There is only a duplicate of the original Digi-Destined...you people (points at the new Digi-Destined) don't have to fight.
Tai: I see...well, then...I guess it's time we paid a visit to the enemy generals...don't you think?
Sora/Mimi/Joe/Izzy/Matt/Kari/TK: YEAH!
Michael: what about us?
Tai: You people keep an eye on things while we fight.
Michael: OK! (Turns to the new Digi-Destined) You heard him! Get to it people!
They leave. The original 8 are waiting.
Tai: Don't worry people...this will be like our first time here...
Sora: Only this time...a lot more is at stake...
Mimi: Here we go again...
Joe: Yeah...new danger...new enemies who have massive destruction powers...
Matt: That's our Joe...always the pessimistic one...
TK: I'm ready.
Kari: So am I.
Izzy: I'm ready too.
Tai: Then let's go! Is everyone's armor on?
All: YEAH!
Tai: Look out, Generals...here we come!
They leave into the forest. Meanwhile, in the Emperor's Base...
Taichi: Good work Takeru...you got rid of the most powerful one!
Yamato: Yeah...good work, bro.
Mimi: It's about time we won a battle.
Koushiro (comes in running): Guys! I read multiple signals coming strait towards us!
Hikari: Must be his friends...I guess they want revenge.
Taichi: So? Let them come! We will give them a beating to remember!
All laugh maniacally.
It was the beginning of January and TK decided to go on a morning jog. Though he knew the forest was filled with dangerous digimon. Not that he cared, really. Halfway through, though, he heard a voice.
Voice: In the beginning, it was a world of light. In the end, it fell to the darkness. Then, shall the angels rise, to protect their homeworld from destruction. The light, the dark, two opposing sides. In the end, light shall triumph. Yet, where there is light, there is darkness.
TK: Very nice, James did you make it up by yourself?
James: Naw...I remember hearing it when I was young. Though, I must admit, the scenery it provides is quite familiar.
TK: Still, it was very nice.
James: Thanks. We better get back, Rose and Kari must be awake by now...not to mention worried sick.
TK: hehe...that would resemble Kari a lot.
James (rolls his eyes): Tell me about it...
TK: ok...let's go.
When they get back home, they find Kari and Rosalyn with a very stern look on their faces. James and TK look at each other. James giving TK a 'told you' look. TK just shrugged and kissed Kari. James did the same with Rosalyn. Suddenly, a loud explosion is heard in the horizon. They run out to see a pillar of smoke coming from Izzy, Willis, and Joe's house.
James: Oh shit! Rosalyn, armor up and let's go!
Rosalyn: Right. -Lifts up her hands- Rosalyn, Armor of Loyalty...Armor UP!
James (does the same): James...Armor of Unity...Armor UP!
Rosalyn (looks at Kari and TK): You two remember what to do?
James: Remember...focus on your crest.
TK/Kari: RIGHT! Takeru...Kari...Armor of Hope...Armor of Light...Armor UP! -Flash of light and TK is wearing an orange armor and Angemon's staff. Kari is wearing a white armor and Angewomon's bow- Ready!
James (impressed): Made it on the first time...(focus' back on the mission) OK! Let's GO! -Takes off, the rest are following-
When they get there, they see Izzy, Joe, and Willis being cornered by five DarkTyranomons.
James: This is NOT my day.
TK: Tell me about it.
James (shouts at Joe, Izzy, and Willis): Armor up you guys! NOW!
Izzy/Joe/Willis: RIGHT!
Izzy: Koushiro...Armor of Knowledge...Armor UP!
Joe: Jyou...Armor of Reliability...Armor UP!
Willis: Willis...Armor of Miracles...Armor UP!
In a flash, Izzy, Joe, and Willis are wearing they're purple, blue, and golden armors.
Willis: HyperBlast! -A big ball of energy comes out of his twin cannons-
Joe: Mega Slash! -Three crescents come out of a the blaster he has on the end of his right hand-
Izzy: Power Surge! - A shock wave, just like an EMP shock wave, radiates from him. -
James: Destiny of Evil! -He crosses his arms on his chests, fists closed, and he's sweating-
Rosalyn: Oh my god! Kari! Get everyone out of here! Go to Tai's house! NOW!
Kari: Why? -Points at James- What is he doing?
Rosalyn: Destiny of Evil...It will create an explosion that will destroy or purge all evil for a 2-mile radius. You're armor won't stand it! Now LEAVE!
TK (grabs Kari): You heard her! Let's GO, Kari!
Joe: I'll tell Matt to go to Tai's...(flies away)
Izzy: Kari, TK, Willis...We have to go! NOW! He won't be long to release the energy.
Willis: Kari! Come on!
Kari: bu...but...James...Rosalyn...They won't make it.
TK: Izzy! Grab Kari and fly out of here with Willis!
Izzy: What about you?
TK: someone's gotta get them outta here. That's me.
Willis: Ok...see you later...Izzy, Come on!
Izzy: Right (grabs a screaming Kari and flies away)
TK: Thanks Izz...(flies towards Rosalyn and James)
Rosalyn: You ready?
TK: yeah...
James: TK...why are you doing this? Kari might never see you again...
TK: I have hopes that we will survive...Besides, If I don't do this, they might die from other creatures...
James: heh...OK! Here WE GO!!!!!!! -Releases the energy into the pack of Tyranomons-
TK/Rosalyn: Teleport...NOW!
Flash of light, then nothing...
Meanwhile at Tai's house, in the living room...
Tai: HE WHAT?!?!?!?
Izzy (holding his helmet): You heard me, he said to leave with Kari and Willis and to come here.
HUGE explosion is heard...they turn their heads towards it.
Sora: does that mean they're...(weakly) dead?
Willis (also holding his helmet): We don't know...TK told me to wait for them here for an hour...(check's his watch) it's past an hour...I'm sorry...
Mimi (sobs): I...can't...believe...they're...dead!
Matt: Little bro...why?
TK (from atop the balcony that looks into the living room): Why? Because I'm a stubborn asshole, that's why!
All: TK!
TK (jumps into the living room): that's my name last time I checked.
Kari (jabs him in the stomach): DON'T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN! (Kisses him, she doesn't have a helmet)
TK: I missed you too, Kari. I see you have you're brother's punch (rubs his stomach)
James: He was pretty brave to stay there.
Rosalyn: and pretty honorable.
Matt: TK...next time you pull a stunt like that, I will personally make sure you regret it.
Mimi: got that right.
Kari: nu-uh, I get to kill him.
TK: What's this? I just saved you from potential enemies, and you're going to kill me?
Tai: got that right.
Michael: but since you're alive, and not all of our houses are destroyed...at least, I hope not...I suggest we PARTY!
James: I'm in!
Rosalyn: Me too!
All: YEAH!
Matt brought whatever drinks he could find, Tai and Sora set up the house, Rosalyn, Mimi, Catherine, and Kari brought whatever fruits they could get and TK and James brought the meat and started cooking it. Soon they were chowing down and chilling out. TK, James, Rosalyn, and Kari where talking in front of the fireplace, Tai, Matt, Izzy, Joe, Michael, and Willis were talking about the different armors, and Mimi, Catherine, and Sora were talking about they're respective others.
TK: Yeah, well, that Teleport sure beats the hell outta you.
Rosalyn: Tell me about it...
Kari: I'm just grateful you people aren't hurt.
James: I feel like a train hit me...
TK: no duh...that attack requires way too much energy.
In another section of the room...
Izzy: I think the reason we get different armors and weapons is because each armor corresponds to a different crest.
Tai: In English?
Willis: Each crest has a different armor.
Tai: oh......
Matt: but why the different weapons?
Michael: I suppose each weapon we have is simply a replacement for our digimon's powers.
-Flashback-
Izzy: Power Surge!
Joe: Mega Slash!
Willis: HyperBlast!
-End of flashback-
Izzy: Yeah...that would explain the weapons...
Joe: I mean...TK got Angemon's staff...and Kari got Angewomon's bow...
Tai: yeah...still, why were Izzy, Joe and Willis attacked in the first place?
Gennai (walks in): I'll tell you why...
Davis (walks in too): We got another Digimon Emperor loose...
Cody: We found out right after we met Gennai at his house.
Tai (nervous smile): you're joking...right?
Sora: But...How?
Ken: I'm the only one that ever became that here!
James: I think I know how he came...
Rosalyn: How?
James: He opened the portal that sucked me into this place...(turns his head) which means...We're at war...
Tai: WAR????????
Gennai: yes...war...He invaded the Digiworld with a HUGE army of men...and is infecting virus digimon so that he becomes they're master. This unlike any black gears or dark rings you've ever encountered. These can only be cured by death. If you kill one of his men...they will return to their world unharmed...but beware...they are as powerful as you can imagine.
Tai (looks at James): ok...you've fought this guy before...what do we do?
James: get out of here...NOW!
Sora: what is wrong with you?
Michael: Catherine? Do you remember what happened last time?
Catherine: yeah...Guys? We have to get out...NOW! Something bad is going to happen.
Matt: yeah...she's right...we better leave...
Mimi: something isn't right here...
Davis: people...
James: Here it comes...
Tai: What is coming? (A LOUD explosion answers him) oh...THAT is coming...ok, people, move OUT! (Motions them with his hands)
All: right!
James: Davis! Cody! Armor up! We're gonna need your help!
Cody/Davis: Got it! Cody...Davis...Armor of Knowledge...Armor of Courage...Armor UP!
Davis/Cody: Ready!
James: ok...Willis, Joe, Izzy, TK, and Kari...follow me!
Rosalyn: Tai, Mimi, Sora, and Matt! You follow me!
Tai/Sora/Matt/Mimi: Right! (Leave out the door running)
Gennai: I'm going back my house, consider it your new base.
James: You got it! (Gives him a thumbs up) Ok, you guys! Ready?
Kari: Yeah!
James: Here we go!
(A/N: if you have the digimon 02 evolution song, Break up, this would be a good time to play it.)
Outside, they find this BIG group of soldiers and digimon.
James: FIRE!
Willis: HyperBlast!
Joe: Mega Slash!
Izzy: Power Surge!
James: Fury of the People!
TK: Holy Beam!
Kari: Arrow of Light!
Davis: Fire Twister!
Cody: Mega Drill!
Each attack was thrown at a different group of people. When the smoke dissipated, though, only the digimon were really hurt by the attacks. They, however, only fazed the men.
Cody: James...We may have a problem...
Davis: Got that right...
Soldier #1: Mega Shotgun!
The blast caught Davis right in the chest.
Cody: DAVIS!
Soldier #2: Hyper Shot!
Cody: Wha-UGH!
The blast had caught Cody totally offguard and hit him in the chest, hard.
James: DAMN! Kari, Willis, Joe, Izzy...Take the others to safety! TK and me will hold them off!
Kari: but...
TK: DO IT, KARI! Please! (Mouths I love you to her. She nods and Takes Cody, Willis takes Davis)
TK (looks at James): Ready?
James: As I'll ever be.
TK/James: Let's do it!
TK: Holy BEAM!
James: Tornado of Fate!
The attacks faze the men again, but kill the digimons.
TK: I hate doing this...
James: you and me both...
TK: Why did you want me to stay? They will overcome us easily!
James: When I tell you to, focus on your crest as much as you can.
TK: Huh?
James: Just do it!
TK (confused): uh...ok... (Begins to concentrate hard on his crest. It begins to glow.)
James does the same, with similar results.
James/TK: Crest Armor...ENERGIZE!
James: Crest of Unity...
TK: Crest of Hope...
They're armor begins to glow and disappear, only to be replaced by a new, more advanced armor. James' armor is light blue with a smooth surface, and a gun at the end of each fist. His helmet now covers everything on his head except for his eyes. TK's armor is still orange, though white at some parts, with a smooth surface and a huge sword rests at his side. His helmet only covers the sides, back and top of his head.
TK: I hope you people down there are ready for this...
Soldier #1: What the hell is going on here?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Soldier #2: I don't like it...
James: MEGA FORCE!
TK (grabs his sword): SLASH OF JUSTICE!
Soldiers: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!
Huge blast, then nothing. Meanwhile, in the distance...
Kari: What was that? (Sees huge pillar of smoke in the horizon) oh no...TK...
Rosalyn: Are they ok? I mean...I can't sense them...
Kari: I don't care! I'm going back!
Willis: Wait! I think I see something coming! I don't recognize them...Ok, people (looks at Joe, Izzy, and Davis) Get ready to fight!
Tai: Wait! I think we better hide on this one...
Izzy: I agree. We don't know how strong they might be.
Willis: ok...hide in those trees! NOW!
As they finish hiding, the two figures that were coming land in the clearing.
Unknown: I can sense them...They're close by...
Unknown #2: At least the report we have confirms the destruction of the other two.
Unknown: Yeah. I bet they died horribly. (Starts laughing)
Unknown #2: yeah (starts laughing too)
Kari (whispering, with tears in her eyes): TK...no...please...no
Davis: I can't believe this...TK...no...
Michael: James...we never repaid you...
Catherine: please...no...
TK (from above the two unknown people): Never, EVER, trust a report.
James (from next to TK): Yeah, It could be you're downfall.
Unknown: What the? You two are supposed to be dead!
TK: says who?
Unknown: says ME! (Lunges at TK)
TK: Holy Slash!
Unknown: UGH...(grabs his stomach) who the hell are you? (Falls down, dead)
Unknown #2: NO! (Glares at TK) you asked for it! (Whistles, a big quantity a men come out) try and beat us all at the same time...(laughs)
Kari (comes out of her hiding place): Who said they were alone?
Willis: Yeah! Says who?
The others come out. They are still outnumbered. Tai, Sora, Mimi, Ken, Michael, Catherine, Yolei, and Matt armor up.
Tai: Taichi...Armor of Courage...Armor UP!
Sora: Sora...Armor of Love...Armor UP!
Mimi: Mimi...Armor of Purity...Armor UP!
Matt: Yamato...Armor of Friendship...Armor UP!
Michael: Michael...Armor of Honesty...Armor UP!
Catherine: Catherine...Armor of Life...Armor UP!
Ken: Ken...Armor of Kindness...Armor UP! (His crest glows on his chest) Crest Armor...ENERGIZE!
Yolei: Miyako...Armor of Love...Armor UP!
Yolei: Ken...why did you armor up again?
Ken: I have no idea...
TK: Ken! Get over here! James and me are going to need your help!
Ken: Right!
The rest have taken out swords and start fighting the soldiers.
Tai: This (slash) is (ducks) is (dodges) going (slashes) to (attacks) be (backs up) hard.
Sora: We can't hurt them! They're too powerful!
TK: Energize your crest Armor! Just focus on everything your crest means!
All: Right!
Tai starts to focus on they're journey in the Digiworld, and when he confessed to Sora that he loved her. Sora focuses on the love she has for each friend she has. As the love for her mom. Matt, on his friendships. Mimi, on the time she was with the Geckomons. Willis, When Kokomon went crazy and was brought back. The rest just focused on their crests. Suddenly, a flash of light invaded each of them. They began to Armor up to the next stage.
Unknown #2: Damn...they're too powerful! (Cries out to his men) Fall BACK! (Looks at TK) Beware, I will avenge my friend! I will avenge my friend, Tim! Remember me, remember Takeru! (Leaves)
Tai (pale): di...did you just hear what he said?
TK (pale, VERY pale): yeah...his...name...it's me...
Matt: No Way!
Mimi: I must be having a bad dream...
James: This wasn't unexpected...
Michael (turns towards him): What are you talking about?
James: I'm saying that they ARE you...the are the you from MY world. They are dark beings...not by will of course...they are the key to saving both worlds...To win...we must kill them...all of them...
Tai (laughs lightly): That's a good one...(points at himself) I have to kill myself? You must be joking!
Sora (jabs Tai): Tai...be serious...this isn't a joke...
Tai (looks at the other's faces): I see...it's that bad...
Catherine: I have to fight myself...why?
James: The Emperor converted them to evil by infecting them with a virus.
TK: If that's the only way to help our world and yours...(pulls out his sword) then so be it.
Kari (looks at TK): Are you sure?
TK (looks at the others): If we don't do anything, BOTH our world and his, countless people, will suffer because we refused to fight ourselves. Is that fair?
Tai (pulls out his sword): No...no it isn't...I'm in.
Sora (pulls out her sword): So am I
Matt: I'm not going to stand by and see people suffer...(pulls out his sword) I'm in.
Mimi: So am I.
Michael: I will not have people suffer because of me...Count me in.
Joe: Me too
Izzy: I see no other way to do this...so, I guess I'm in.
Willis: I'm definitely in. Terriermon would of wanted me to.
Catherine: I am in...all the way...
Kari: I will not stand and see you and others suffer...so (pulls out her sword) I'm in.
Ken: Wormmon would of liked me to...I will fight.
Yolei: So will I
Davis: Me too
Cody: I will definitely come. Grandpa would have liked that.
Rosalyn: I know I'm coming.
James: That settles it (pulls out his sword and stretches it out. The other stretch theirs out on his) We will fight...not for honor...not for personal reasons...but for life's sake...for both our worlds...ARE YOU IN?
All: YEAH!
They retreat to Gennai's house where they go to sleep, except for Izzy, Tai, James, Matt, and Gennai. A map of the Digiworld, courtesy of Izzy's laptop, was projected before them.
James: This is where the Emperor is based (points at a location on the map)
Izzy (examines the map): that's on Server...and in the mountain regions...near where Tentomon and me fought Vamdemon. (Shudders)
Tai (helmet is off and on the table): So...what do we do? (Looks at Gennai)
Gennai: We know that only the virus type Digimon can be infected by the virus, so we can expect help from data and vaccine type digimon. We also know that his soldiers are very powerful and are now in the progress to upgrade their armor and weapons. The upgrade base is here (presses a button, a 3-D map of a single location appears)
Matt (holding his helmet): That's Infinity Mountain...right here, on File island...what's it doing here? (Looks at James)
James: The portal was used to transport buildings too...there was a miscalculation and it was teleported there. This is bad...
Matt: why not move it?
James: Are you crazy? Look at the size of the compound! It's huge! By the time half gets away, we would of have destroyed the other half.
Tai: It IS huge...about the size of a small city...
Izzy: Damn...what the hell where they thinking?
Gennai: You're guess is as good as mine is.
James: Anyway...we have to destroy that compound...fast...before it produces anymore soldiers and become a pain in the ass.
Tai (looks at Matt): I like him...
Matt (grins): yeah...he's as normal as they come...
James: I heard that!
Gennai: Anyway...we can destroy that compound...
Izzy: whenever he has that look...It usually means there's a new Dark Master after us. Ok, Gennai...what's the catch?
Gennai: As Tai had said, That compound is the size of a small city...We don't have enough power to completely destroy it...not even wipe out half...
Tai: So? What do we do instead?
Gennai: In this building... (Points at a building in the map. An architectural map of the building appears)...Is stored the main power core of the compound...
Izzy (Eyes widen): Oh...I like it...
James (understand the plan): I don't.
Tai: What are you three talking about?
Matt: Yeah...Fill us in.
Izzy (turns towards them): A core Meltdown. Total destruction of the compound...plus an EMP shockwave of a 1-mile radius. They won't have a chance to escape.
Matt: I don't get it...why don't you like it James?
James: How much time will we have to get out, Izzy?
Izzy: 5 min...oh...I see...this is quite unexpected...
Tai: WE won't have time to get away in time...
Matt: the explosion'd annihilate US.
Gennai: I see...this is quite depressing
All think for a while.
James (comes up with something. His eyes have a twinkle in them): Izzy...how much time would you need to build a device that would be powerful enough to contain the explosion to the city?
Izzy: I dunno...4-5 days, why? Oh...OH...I see...(looks up and smiles) I like it.
James (explains to the others): The building is on the edge of the city. BIG mistake. Izzy will build a device that will contain the explosion to the city, only. We will be unharmed. I will need TK, Kari, and Rosalyn for this mission.
Tai: Granted...do what you have to do...just bring back Kari safe.
Matt: and TK too.
James: They'll be all right.
Tai: Well then...better hit the sack...what time is it, Izz?
Izzy: We have about 8 hours to sleep.
Matt: good, cuz I'm wasted.
James: See you tomorrow. (Leaves for his bed. TK is waiting for him.)
TK: How'd it go?
James: You'll see...(smiles) right now...let's grab some shuteye.
TK: I'm with you.
They both go to sleep. Far away...in the Emperor's Palace...
Emperor: They did WHAT?
Takeru: They went to the next stage, without any help of some sort...
Emperor (furious): This is impossible! Intolerable! How DARE they?
Taichi: Sir...they are very powerful...they wiped out a full regiment of our men...and that was only two of them.
Emperor (paces around): Don't you think I know THAT?
Koushiro: I don't see how they made it to the next stage without help, though...It normally takes the OZ-chemical to make it work. At least the facility is still functioning...and the new one is almost completed, sir.
Emperor (throws up his hands): Finally! Some good news!
Yamato: They have proven themselves as good warriors, though.
Hikari: Especially the one in Orange armor, likewise for the one in Black armor.
Sora (evil one): Yeah...but the one in the red one was a skilled sword fighter...
Takeru: What do we do now, sir?
Emperor: We wait...for now, they have the upper hand. Yet, soon, it will be our turn to strike...(laughs maniacally)
The next day...at Gennai's, Tai, Izzy, Matt, and James are explaining the mission, with the help of the holographic map.
Tai: Right...so, James, Kari, TK, and Rosalyn will infiltrate the building while we create a diversion...here. (Points at a building two blocks from the main building) It should give them enough time to get in, get out, and run for it. It goes for us too. By the way...NO heroics...got it, people? James gets his old rank of admiral for this war. Izzy will be our intelligence, and Matt and me are the leaders...any questions? Yes, Sora?
Sora: What about us? What do we get?
Tai: Matt...
Matt: (looks at him and nods): You all get different ranks depending on how well we've seen you fight. Sora, Yolei, Mimi, and Catherine are all Lieutenants, right now, Michael, Joe, Willis, Ken, Cody, Davis...you're all captains...TK, Kari, Rosalyn...you are all vice-admirals on this one. Congratulations. Now...if that's settled, let's get to work, people. Come on! Move! (Orders them out, then looks at Tai) this is going to be hard...
Tai (rolls his eyes): don't I know it... (Turns to Gennai) Before we came here, you told us a new evil was after us in OUR world. Exactly WHAT evil?
Gennai: The Emperor's Assassins. They are skilled beyond imagination; they have cloaking ability, very powerful too. You would have not even made it to the next day, alive.
Matt (thinks): I see...well, I think we're grateful...yet also a little pissed because you brought us in the middle of a war.
Gennai: Yes...this was unexpected...I'm sorry. This was never meant to be.
Tai: This isn't your fault. This was unexpected; it will be another adventure for all of us.
Matt (rolls his eyes): I hope your right...
Meanwhile...in the compound...
James (looks from his corner): Ok...no one in sight...let's go...
TK/Kari/Rosalyn: Right! (Move towards the compound)
James (stops at the front of the building and looks up): Right...(turns towards the others) ready?
TK: yeah...
Kari: Let's do this...
Rosalyn: Here we go!
An explosion is heard. They take off towards the top of the building. Meanwhile...Two blocks from there...
Tai: Willis! Hit that wall! (Points)
Willis: Right! HYPERBLAST! (The blast hits the wall, making it fall on the enemy)
Matt: How much time must we stay here?
Izzy: Until James calls us!
Sora: I don't know if we can stand for that long...(As if to make her point, the soldiers under the wall come out from under it)...I hate it when I'm right...
Mimi: Matt...honey...we won't be able to hold out...with only Ken being able to effectively hurt them...and he's hurt... (Points at Ken, who is on the ground with Joe looking him over)
Willis: She's right, Matt, we won't be able to hold out for more than 15 more minutes.
Tai: This is one battle we can't win...and we knew it...I hate to admit it, but we have to retreat...
Michael (gets hit by the enemy): AAAAAAAAAH!
Catherine: Michael! NO!
Willis: That's it! I'm going over towards them!
Matt: Me too! (Flies towards Catherine and the downed Michael)
Michael (smiles weakly): hey...guys...ow...you better get the hell outta here...ow...before you get caught...forget about me...
Matt: Oh no we won't! We won't leave you!
Willis: We never, EVER, abandon friends!
Catherine: I need you, Michael! Don't say those things!
Michael: heh...I thought so...I knew I wouldn't of had convinced you...you guys are great...too bad...cough...It has to end like this...(passes out)
Matt: MICHAEL! (Crest glows)
Willis: NO! (Crest glows)
Catherine (crying): no...NO! (Crest is glowing)
Soldier #1: What the hell?
Matt/Willis/Catherine: Crest Armor...ENERGIZE!
Catherine: Crest of Life...
Matt: Crest of Friendship...
Willis: Crest of Miracles...
They're armor falls off; they begin to glow pure white before a new armor begins to form on them. Catherine's armor is now pure white; she has wings coming out of the back of the armor. Basically, she looks like an angel, but with a sword. Matt's armor is now blue. His shoulders are covered with protectors who have a single spike on them. His sword has grown for about 5 inches more.
The same happened to Willis, except his armor is gold and his guns have widened a bit (10 inches every way).
Michael (opens his eyes): What the...I feel a new energy coming from within me...(stands up, fully ready for battle) Hell YEAH! I feel like new!
Ken (stands up): I feel totally energized...(gets ready to fight) OK! Let's do this!
Joe (surprised by Ken's outburst): WHOAH!
Tai (smiling): Mimi...looks like you're fiancé has saved the day...
Mimi: That's my man...
Sora: Yeah...but I still think Tai is better.
Tai: I try.
Sora: He tries.
Matt: If the chitchat is over, Let's fight!
Tai (with renewed energy): YEAH! (Slashes at a soldier)
All: CHARGE! (Run at the enemy)
Soldiers: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Meanwhile, in the central building...
TK: Slash of Justice!
Guard: AAAAAAAAAH! (Falls down and disappears)
James: How much time till the girls are done?
TK: Don't ask me!
In the central core room...
Rosalyn: There...it should be put for meltdown...
Kari: Good, now, let's get out of here!
They run out the door. To find the boys waiting for them.
James: You done?
Rosalyn: Yes, smart-ass, now...Let's get the fuck out of here!
TK: I concur. (They break a window a go flying out)
James (types a message on his communicator): GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE!
Meanwhile, Izzy gets the message
Izzy: They did it! RUN FOR IT!
Tai: You heard the man! LET'S GO!
All: RIGHT!
They start running or flying out of the city.
Meanwhile, the core starts to shiver, glow, and radiating energy.
Soldier (bursts into the room): What is going on here? (Looks at the core) oh no...no...(turns and shouts) GET THE HELL OUT! IT"S GONNA BLOW!
Too late. An explosion is seen out in the distance. In the Emperor's palace...
Soldier (holographic projection): Sir...something is wrong here...the lights are going out...electric fuses are blowing up!
Koushiro: I see...very well...what else?
Soldier: The facility isn't working anymore an-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! (Projection disappears)
Koushiro (looks at the comms officer): What is going on? Why has the communication been interrupted?
Comms officer (pale): Sir...the facility...It's gone...everything...wiped out...
Koushiro: I hope you're joking...
Comms officer: not at all...Patrol #2 has confirmed that a HUGE explosion occurred on Infinity Mountain.
Koushiro (bangs his fist on the table): DAMN IT! How did this happen?
Comms officer: Patrol #2 reports having detected an unusually high amount of radiation coming out of the area.
Koushiro: I see...a core meltdown...these rebels aren't so dumb after all. I need to talk to the Emperor. (Turns to the comms officer) Good work.
Comms officer (salutes): Thank you, SIR! (Goes back to his post)
Koushiro leaves towards the throne room, where the rest of the people were gathered.
Taichi: I suppose this isn't a social call...what is it?
Sora: Yeah...I was busy.
Koushiro: You're love making can wait for this (they are about to protest, when the Emperor walks in) Good morning, Sire.
Emperor: Good morning, why did you call on me? I was sleeping.
Koushiro (addresses them all): Exactly five minutes ago, the Upgrade Facility on Infinity Mountain was wiped out. (They are shocked)
Emperor (pale): WHAT?
Koushiro: You all heard me. The facility was TOTALLY wiped out. No survivors, no nothing. They all died on the spot.
Taichi: Impossible! Yamato's guards and mine were all stationed there! There is no way they could of destroyed the whole thing!
Koushiro (shouts at him): THEN HOW COME THE FACILITY WAS BLOODY WIPED FROM THE FACE OF THE PLANET? HOW LONG SINCE YOU LAST HEARD FROM THEM?
Emperor: Now, now, Koushiro...no need to shout...(smiles)
Koushiro: I'm sorry, you're Excellency.
Emperor: That's better. (Turns to Taichi) How long since you've heard of them?
Taichi: a day.
Emperor (smile widens): A day...one full day...how can you be sure that they are alive then?
Taichi: I can't
Emperor: Good...at least you confess not being sure. (Turns to Koushiro) How did it blow up?
Koushiro: Its core was tampered with and caused a Core Meltdown. No one survived.
Yamato: Are you sure?
Koushiro: No one could of made it out in time...the core only needs five minutes to detonate on these cases.
Yamato: I hate to admit it...but he's right on this one, Taichi. None of our soldiers could have made it.
Taichi (grabs his head): I still don't see how they made it in...
Jyou: How about an air strike?
Taichi (looks at him): What?
Jyou: Pretty simple...they could of come in from the top. Couldn't they?
Taichi (straightens up): That makes sense...My best guards were stationed on the lower levels. Only the Intermediate class soldiers were on the top.
Yamato: Same for me...
Mimi: Jyou...I'm impressed...
Jyou: I try...
Emperor: That's why you're co-head of the spy network.
Jyou: True.
Takeru: I'm still wondering about something...
Hikari: Which is?
Takeru: Taichi...what orders did your men have?
Taichi: To stay on post...
Takeru: And if a problem aroused in the city?
Taichi: They were to go help...
Takeru (nods): Makes sense...you see, before the facility was wiped out...I got a transmission saying that a group of armored soldiers were attacking the city...(lifts his head up to look at Taichi) and that was two blocks from the facility...
Taichi: I get it...a diversion...ingenious...
Yamato: I agree...
Sora: They purposely drove out your guards out of the facility, so that they could work in peace...
Mimi: Very ingenious...
Hikari: They are worthy adversaries...
Emperor: Another reason to get rid of them...I suppose you all got your orders, correct?
All: yes, Sire.
Emperor: Good...get to it. I have a trip to the beach in an hour. I hope you will be effective governors of your provinces.
All: We will try, Sire.
Emperor: Good. Dismissed. (Turns and leaves)
At Gennai's house...
Tai: Ok, people...here's what we know...the facility, all of it, was destroyed, so good work. (Applause) HOWEVER (quiet) we may have a problem...we have learned that a new facility, just like this one, only bigger, was finished on Server two days ago. Since TK and James are out hunting the remnants of the enemy on this island...we will start without them. In order to control our forces everywhere...Yamato, Gennai, James, and me have agreed upon assigning different regions to each of you. Each region has a different army waiting for you. (Turns to Mimi) Yes, Mimi?
Mimi: How did you get the men?
Sora: Yeah...How, Taichi?
Tai (looks at Gennai): Gennai...
Gennai: Ok...what you are about to hear you won't like...
Michael: Go on...
Gennai: Since the disposal of the Emperor is necessary for the safety of BOTH our worlds...
Catherine: You didn't do what I think you did, did you?
Gennai: Which is?
Catherine: Tell our parents about this...
Gennai: Oh...no...of course not.
All (except Tai, Gennai, Matt, and Izzy): Phew...
Gennai: Instead...I told the whole world.
Silence,
Sora/Mimi/Michael/Willis: YOU WHAT?
Ken: You're joking, I hope...
Gennai: Nope...
Tai: He had Matt's permission...as Izzy's and mine. We thought of it as the best option...
Sora: You are aware, that our parents know now, don't you?
Tai: Yeah...that's why they e-mailed us saying they understand...that they are proud of you...and that they know we'll do as well as with MaloMyotismon...so don't worry about them. The major powers granted us their armies. I gotta go and make plans with Izz. (Leaves)
Michael: They said that?
Kari: I think they would...
Sora: Mom...
Willis (standing up): I know I'm going to fight.
Kari: After what he said?
Willis: Even more after what he said.
Sora: But...doesn't this depress you? We never thought about them in battle! We never thought what it would mean to them if we died.
Willis: I know that...but I'm going to fight. My parents are proud of me that I'm doing this. I'm going to make them prouder by saving them.
Michael: He's right...I'm in...all the way.
Sora/Mimi: So are we.
Rest: So are we!
From a corner...
Matt (to Tai): Told you they'd do it.
Tai: Good ol' Will. Trust him to make things a lot better than they are.
Matt: I agree.
Tai: Let's go, pal. We got A LOT of planning to do.
Matt: I'm impressed...you actually like it.
Tai: Shut up, loser. (Both laugh)
Two days later...In the new underwater base, two miles out in the ocean...
Tai: Right...Sora, you and me, we get the area around the Koromon village and the mountains. Matt, you and Mimi get the Northern parts of the Continent. Michael, you and Catherine get the Western part, Willis, you Izzy and Joe get the South. James, Rosalyn, you get the Eastern part. Kari, you and TK get the Central Area. Gennai will control File Island. Let us be reminded of the oath we took when we found out about the other uses. Do not go rebel on this cause. Remember that the fate of all three worlds lie in our hands. Get to it people! (All leave)
Matt: I see our old leader hasn't died with age...
Tai: Are you kidding? I've been waiting for this for a LONG time. Another adventure. School was getting a bit of a pain. This is a welcomed break from daily life.
Matt: I couldn't agree more.
Tai: I wish our parents were here...
Matt: Me too...
Gennai (runs into the hallway): Matt! Tai! (Turns to see them) Oh! There you are! We have a code blue!
Tai: Blue? What's going on, Gennai?
Gennai: A missile is headed towards here!
Tai (looks at Matt): Evacuate the base! NOW!
Gennai: You got it! (Runs towards the nearest radio room)
Matt: We better get out too.
Tai: Yeah...Did James and TK come back?
Matt: Not that I know of...
Tai: Call them and tell them to find the fucker that did this!
Matt: Got it! (Runs towards the comms room)
Tai (rolls his eyes): So much for a break... (Goes to the nearest exit)
Outside...
Sora (motions soldiers out): MOVE MOVE MOVE! Not much time left! COME ON! GET OUT! (Sees Tai) Tai! Over here!
Tai (runs towards her): How's the evac going?
Sora: We don't have enough boats for everyone!
Izzy (comes near them): This isn't good...our ships are depleting in numbers by the instant...
Joe: We need to get out of here!
Tai: Not until everyone is safe!
Mimi: Kari just left with the second group. We only have for 15 groups more. There are enough here for 20.
Tai: I don't care! I am NOT leaving till everyone is safe!
Izzy (hears a beep in his communicator): Incoming message (puts a finger in his ear and looks down)...yes...I see...patch it trough...thank you. (Looks up) We're receiving a message from an unknown source...
Hologram appears...
Unknown: This is Freedom Squadron of the Reconnaissance Patrol 14...need any help, down there, Tai?
Tai (smiles big): James! You little tweed! Get down here!
James: I copy that. We got the bastards for you, Matt.
Matt: I knew it! They did it!
Izzy: Radar confirms 14 fighters accompanying 5 transports. (Looks at them) We can get everyone out.
Tai: Great! Get ready for airlift!
All: Right! (Joe, Mimi, Izzy, and Sora leave)
Michael: You are one hell of a leader, Tai. You too, Matt
Tai/Matt: I try
Matt/Tai: he tries.
Tai/Matt: We try (laugh)
Catherine: You're both nuts.
Davis (waves at Tai): Tai! The transports are here!
Cody: We got about ten more minutes till impact.
Matt: More than enough time.
Willis: I think it's time to go, Tai, Matt... (Motions two soldiers in)
Soldier #1: Sir! We will be you're escort.
Tai: I gotta get used to this 'sir' thing. Ok, soldier, take us to our planes.
James (still in the air): TK! We're gonna cover 'em, got it?
TK: Got it, Freedom leader.
The planes take off...10 minutes later, the facility blows up.
TK: That was awfully close...
James: Heads up! Full squad on Air group 2!
TK: Sora's in there!
James (rolls his eyes): Greeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaat! Everyone, intercept that squad! (Dives his plane out of formation)
Fighters: Roger, Lead. (Follow James)
Soon, It's more of a killing frenzy than an air combat. Freedom squadron suffers one ejection. The enemy squadron was not so lucky though...13 out of the 15 fighters were down. No ejection.
TK: Why don't they give up?
James: They're training forbids it.
TK: I see...(spots something) James! Watch out! Missile on your tail!
Too late...the missile hits the fighter's wing, making it go out of control.
TK: James! EJECT!
James: Can't...eject...window...stuck...
TK: NO! JAMES!
James: Hope...you...win...the...war...kid...see...ya.
TK: I will not let you die! You won't die! You're time isn't now! (Crest glows)
James (opens his eyes): No...you're right...I won't die! I WON'T LET THEM KILL ME! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! (Cabin bursts open with energy)
TK: Freedom 3...you're in command for now. Cover me!
Freedom 3: Got it, boss. You heard the man! Cover him!
TK: Takeru...Armor of Hope...ARMOR UP! (Comes out of his cabin, fully armored.
James: Glad to see you came. I sense that a being of ENORMOUS energy is closing in.
TK: Freedom 3...Get the hell outta here!
Freedom 3: Got it! Come on guys; Let's get the hell outta here! (Fighters leave)
TK: Crest Armor...ENERGIZE!
TK: Crest of Hope...Armor 4...ARMOR UP!
A new armor, this one with boosters, forms up on him...He has a helmet tat looks like a normal fighter helmet, except higher. His sword is the same, but this time has crescents sticking outwards from his arms. The being arrives.
Takeru: I'm impressed...you beat all of my Doom squadron...Of course...they weren't the best...but enough of that...let's fight!
James: I agree.
TK: Finally.
Takeru: You (points at James) stay out of this...this is between the Holder of Hope and me, the Holder of Dismay.
James: No wa-
TK: James...I think he's right...stay out of this one...(turns to him) get to the others...tell them not to wait for me.
James (nods): Good luck, TK. (flies away)
TK (looks to Takeru): Now...I suggest we start...I got my girlfriend to comfort...
Takeru: So do I... (Lunges at TK)
TK (evades the attack): SLASH OF JUSTICE!
Takeru: CUT OF DESPAIR!
The attacks hit each other. Knocking them down for a moment. Then, they get back up.
TK: Holy Crescent! (The crescents on his arms begin to glow, and then several crescents come out shooting at Takeru)
Takeru (gets hit by the attack): Very good...let's see how you counter THIS! Beam of DEATH!
TK: oh...shit... (The attack is nearing TK)
Takeru: Time to die, TK, Holder of Hope! (Laughs)
TK: Never! HOLY BEAM! (The attack isn't slowing down)
Kari: HEAVEN'S FURY! (The attack decimates the enemy attack)
TK (looks at Kari, dumbstruck): Kari? What are you doing here?
Kari: Gotta look after my boyfriend (kisses him) now...I suggest we get this creep.
Takeru: Some other time, maybe...Right now...I suggest you look out, miss. (Laughs maniacally)
TK: What are you talking about?
Takeru only points up and flies away. When they look up, they see a huge ball of energy coming down on them.
TK: Oh shit!
Kari: We gotta get outta here, TK!
TK: we don't have enough time!
Kari (looks at him, teary-eyed): I don't wanna die!
TK: Me either...but we can't escape now...it's too late...I love you Kari...
Kari: Me too...TK...
TK: Goodbye, Kari.
Kari: Good bye...TK.
Just then, a figure gets in the way on the blast, hitting him at full force.
TK: What? (Looks up) JAMES! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
James (looks down and smiles): Heh...I owed you, bro...Looks like Its my time to go...Take care of Kari...and tell Rosalyn...that I'm sorry that I couldn't say goodbye...but to wait for me...see...ya...bro (falls into TK's arms)
TK (shouts in the air): NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Kari: TK...is he...?
TK: I don't know...I don't know...
Later, at the new base, deep in the woods...
TK: He was a good man...a brave warrior...an excellent pilot...and a good friend...and I let him die...(breaks down) I...LET...HIM...DIE! (Bangs his fist)
Tai: We're sorry, TK...
Matt: He was willing to die for others...he was an honorable fighter...he died a hero's death...
Catherine: Michael and me still owed him for saving us...now...he's gone...(breaks down)
Kari: His last words were "Take care of Kari, and tell Rosalyn that I'm sorry that I couldn't say goodbye, but to wait for me"...what did he mean...?
Rosalyn: He means...that he's not dead yet...he's alive.
TK (looks up): WHAT?
Rosalyn: since he and I came from the same world as the enemy...we both would go back home...fine...he just needs to get back now...
Tai: That's great!
Matt: YEAH!
Rosalyn: thing is...the only portal that connects to our world is guarded by the Emperor's finest general's...the other you's...until they are defeated...he won't come back...
Michael: That settles it, then! We go off to get them!
TK: No...
Willis: I don't understand, TK...why?
TK: There is only a duplicate of the original Digi-Destined...you people (points at the new Digi-Destined) don't have to fight.
Tai: I see...well, then...I guess it's time we paid a visit to the enemy generals...don't you think?
Sora/Mimi/Joe/Izzy/Matt/Kari/TK: YEAH!
Michael: what about us?
Tai: You people keep an eye on things while we fight.
Michael: OK! (Turns to the new Digi-Destined) You heard him! Get to it people!
They leave. The original 8 are waiting.
Tai: Don't worry people...this will be like our first time here...
Sora: Only this time...a lot more is at stake...
Mimi: Here we go again...
Joe: Yeah...new danger...new enemies who have massive destruction powers...
Matt: That's our Joe...always the pessimistic one...
TK: I'm ready.
Kari: So am I.
Izzy: I'm ready too.
Tai: Then let's go! Is everyone's armor on?
All: YEAH!
Tai: Look out, Generals...here we come!
They leave into the forest. Meanwhile, in the Emperor's Base...
Taichi: Good work Takeru...you got rid of the most powerful one!
Yamato: Yeah...good work, bro.
Mimi: It's about time we won a battle.
Koushiro (comes in running): Guys! I read multiple signals coming strait towards us!
Hikari: Must be his friends...I guess they want revenge.
Taichi: So? Let them come! We will give them a beating to remember!
All laugh maniacally.
