Digimon Tamers: Side Story
Chapter 2: Evolution Madness
Akira and Magmamon walks to the slayer Gokumon to challenge him. After collecting his courage, he taunts the skeleton digimon. "Hey, skull-head! Think you can beat me? Then come and get me!" Gokumon laughs at him and says, "Hahaha, boy, you underestimate me. Now you're too late to regret!" and Gokumon rushes at Magmamon. "Now take this!" then he swings his scythe at Magmamon, but get dodged because Akira has slashed the Speed Up card, which increases Magmamon's speed. "Phew, that was close. Okay, Magmamon! Heat Rush, now!" Magmamon runs to Gokumon and flame covers his body, "HEAT RUSH!!" the rush hits Gokumon but the skull digimon didn't fall down. Instead, he laughs again and says, "Heheheh, that won't get rid of me. Taste my Dokuro Lance!" Gokumon does a slash combo and then rushes with his scythe on front of him. Magmamon takes all the hit and lies down to the ground. 'This is the same thing I saw on my dream…' thought Akira, as he saw the same thing in his dream. "You underestimate me, and now you're gonna die!!" Then Gokumon raises his scythe and drop it right to Magmamon.
"NOOOOOOOO!!!"
Right before the scythe hits Magmamon, Akira's red colored D-Arc-3, a new type digivice which is said to be a combination of D3 and D-Arc and have two strange holes in the back, shines, as well as Magmamon, which is glowing. "What's this?" Gokumon stops and he back away because of the flash.
"Magmamon evolves to…" then he turned to a salamander. The salamander then stands up and flames glowing at his hands.
"PYRODRAMON!!!"
And Magmamon evolves to Pyrodramon. This is one of the D-Arc-3 advantages, able to evolve without Culumon or slashing a card. "Wow, my Magmamon evolved into Pyrodramon! Let me check the data." Akira points his D-Arc-3 at Pyrodramon and a holographic picture appears.
"PYRODRAMON, REPTILE DATA CHAMPION DIGIMON, ATTACKS ARE BLAZING PUNCH, RAZOR KICK, AND SPECIAL ATTACK IS PYRO STREAM."
Then he commands Pyrodramon to attack Gokumon. "Pyrodramon, use your attack now!" "Roger, Akira." Pyrodramon focuses at the skull digimon and says, "Now you're the one who underestimate me. Take this! RAZOR KICK!!" then Pyrodramon kicks the air, creating something like an air razor, heads to Gokumon which is now guarding with his scythe. It hits Gokumon's scythe and now it's cracked. "Ugh… my scythe… take this for cracking my scythe! JAEN-RENGOKU!!" Gokumon's left hand releases a big fire and headed towards Pyrodramon. But before it hits the salamander digimon, Akira slashes a card. "Card Slash! Fire Absorb!" the Fire Absorb card is a rare card which gives ability to absorbs fire elemental attacks. Jenrya, who watches the fight, stared at Pyrodramon which is taking the flame, and says, "How can a new tamer like him have a rare card?" Terriermon answers, "I don't know…" Meanwhile, Pyrodramon is now covered by fire and ready for his next attack. "I'll return your attack! BLAZING PUNCH!!" Pyrodramon do a combo punch, making fireballs launching at high speed to Gokumon, but he jumps and dodges almost all of them. The last fireball hits him, drops Gokumon from the air and he whines, "Why you!" but when he looks at Pyrodramon, which is still covered by flame, the standing salamander digimon is crouching, meaning he's on his stance to execute his special attack. Then Lee made a conclusion about Pyrodramon, "So Pyrodramon is good at distance attacking…" "Card Slash! Speed Up! Pyrodramon, Pyro Stream, NOW!!" Akira commands Pyrodramon after slashing a card which gives more speed. And the digimon rushes away, leaving a fire stream. "PYRO… STREAM!!!" Gokumon is too late to dodge the attack because of Pyrodramon's incredible speed and he got hit by the stream. Finally Gokumon retreats and says, "You're lucky for now because I'm not using all of my power. But next time we meet, all of you will die in my hands!" and he disappears with laughter.
After Gokumon retreats, Pyrodramon devolves to Magmamon. "Nice job, Magmamon. You finally get rid of that tyrant." Akira praises Magmamon for defeating Gokumon. Then Jenrya greets Akira and says, "Hello. Congratulations on beating Gokumon. My name is Lee Jenrya, but you can call me Jenrya." Terriermon interrupts, "and I'm Terriermon, Jenrya's digimon. And you are?" Akira answers, "I'm Akira Yamagaki, and this is Magmamon." Then Jenrya start asking a question. "Nice to meet you, Akira. By the way, have you heard about the Dark Knights?" "Nope. Never heard of that." "Ok. I'll tell you. The Dark Knights is a group where evil digimons gather to conquer this world. And Gokumon is one of them." Then Akira asks, "Is he? Then who are the others?" Jenrya answers, "I don't know. So far that's the info about the Dark Knights we heard." "Oh well then, thanks for the info." "You're welcome. Well, I have to go now. My family will get worried about me. Bye!" then Jenrya and Terriermon get out of the park. "Let's go home, Magmamon." Akira and Magmamon also decided to go home, but, "Wait!" someone stops Akira, and it's Risa. With a shy face, she thanks Akira. "Thanks for helping me." Akira just smiled at her and says, "It's all right." And then goes off.
Meanwhile, in other place, Takeshi and Saitou are still talking, but Flashmon senses something weird. "What is it, Flashmon?" Takeshi asks Flashmon and the digimon answers, "Didn't you sense something weird, Takeshi?" then suddenly something appears in front of them. It's a mechanical digimon that looks like Andromon but have wings and a tail, and his body is completely armored. "Who are you?" Ask Saitou to the android digimon and he answers, "I'm one of the Dark Knights. People call me, the machine caesar Mechadramon." Then Shakemon asks,"What are you doing here? And what do you want from us?" and Mechadramon answers, "We, the Dark Knights are going to rule this world. But after we eliminate all digimon tamers in this world." Then it's Flashmon's turn to ask. "Why do you want to destroy us?" But Mechadramon says, "That's none of your business. Now get lost!" then he calls two Mekanorimons and disappears. "Whoa! What's that?" then Takeshi points his yellow D-Arc-3 at one of the robot digimons and a holographic picture appears above the digivice.
"MEKANORIMON, MECHANOID VIRUS CHAMPION DIGIMON. ATTACK IS TWIN BEAM."
"A champion, huh? Okay, then let's evolve, Flashmon!" Takeshi activates the D-Arc-3. "Shakemon! Evolve now!" Saitou also activates his brown D-Arc-3.
"Flashmon evolves to…" then he turned into a human that dressed like a wicked wizard. The wizard's eye flashing and a pendulum appears at his hand.
"CHRONOMON!!!"
"Shakemon evolves to…" then he grows bigger, and he turned into something that similar to a gnome.
"GNOMEMON!!!"
Then both Takeshi and Saitou point their D-Arc-3 at their digimons and infos about them appears.
"CHRONOMON, WIZARD VIRUS CHAMPION DIGIMON, ATTACKS ARE HASTE BEAM, CHRONO FREEZE, AND SPECIAL ATTACK IS CURSE OF TIME."
"GNOMEMON, ANIMAL DATA CHAMPION DIGIMON, ATTACKS ARE ROCK RUSH, SPINNING DRILL, AND SPECIAL ATTACK IS GROUND CRACKER."
"Okay, now, get them, Chronomon!" Takeshi commands. "Heee hee hee. Are you ready to receive the punishment?" said Chronomon.
"Go and destroy them, Gnomemon!" said Saitou and Gnomemon taunts the Mekanorimons, "Come and get me if you can!"
