Chapter 40: New Mission New Enemy
Jenn
It had been a month since our last battle. One month of total bliss, for once we were actually living in peace, for an entire month we actually lived the lives of normal teenagers, not having to worry about saving the world from monsters, for one month our biggest worries were schoolwork, I think Dan was the only one who wasn't happy about that, needless to say he missed all the fighting. Aside from our Digimon friends our lives had finally returned to normal. Even Andrew and Emily had managed to regain their normal life, which they hadn't had for fourteen years. Their mother managed to find a good job, it was hard to get one after being "dead" for fourteen years. Their father was still recovering in the clinic, but we'd heard he was only about a month away from recovery.
Andrew was now more open to socializing, and was actually willing to hang out with us, sometimes he was actually friendly. Emily was a different story; she hadn't changed a whole lot since she'd returned. She'd given up enslaving, torturing and killing innocent Digimon, but she was still as cold and mean as ever she wasn't very friendly. Every once and a while she'd tag along with Andrew and hang out with us, but she would never say anything, she'd just keep an angry look on her face, either that or find some way to insult us. Her family was returned to normal but I don't thing that was going to change her anytime soon.
But aside from her everything else was paradise, this past month being with Kris was just perfect, we spent almost every waking moment together, of course we had even before we got together, but it was never as good as this. I'd never had a relationship like this before; he was my best friend and my boyfriend at the same time, it was perfect, just like the present moment.
I had just recently woken up, as my eyes met the clock, which read six AM. Perfect, that still left us hours to stay like this, not enough if you asked me. We were lying in his bed, his loving arms around me holding me close, and sleeping very soundly, it was just too perfect. His parents had gone out of town for some Christmas work thing, I wasn't quite sure what it was I don't think Kris was either, but that didn't really matter. All that matters was that I was with him right now.
We hadn't done anything serious last night, all we'd done was kiss and cuddle the way we were doing right now. Yet the entire night my mind had wandered and I thought if we would. I was pretty surprised when he had asked me to stay over, it wouldn't have been the first time, but it would be the first time since we had become an official couple, and I had no ideas what his intentions where in inviting me over. Whether they where so we could take our relationship to the next level and sleep together, or simply so we could cuddle like this, though if he had suggested that we have sex I probably wouldn't have objected.
We had been only dating for a little over a month, and yeah that seemed a little to soon to be even considering having sex, actually I had thought that myself when Kris and I first started going out, but then as we got closer and the relationship got even more intense the idea of us sleeping together seemed to feel even more right, even if it had only been a little over a month because we'd been friends for so long it seemed like we'd been going out all our lives.
The truth was I was really hoping that Kris would make a move tonight, hoping he would, but not expecting it. He was way to shy to try something like that; it was something that I'd probably have to do, not that I minded of course his shyness was one of the reasons I cared for him so much. I'd even debated making the first move myself, that's why I'd had protection. My eyes met my backpack, which contained my small round and flat protection, birth control pills. I'd been taking shortly after the battle with Evamon. That's when I first began to consider taking our relationship to the next step.
I had gotten a pretty big scare when my Mom found them in my pocket while she was doing the laundry. For a second I thought I was dead, but all she was that she was proud of me for being responsible, and to make sure that I never mentioned it to my father. Later I learned that my mother had lost her virginity at about my age, she probably would have considered herself a hypocrite if she'd told me not to.
I slowly faded out of my thoughts as I felt the warm body beside me began to stir.
"Morning," Kris said kissing the back of my neck. "Merry Christmas."
"Christmas Eve actually," I corrected.
He only laughed cuddled closer to me, again lovingly kissing my neck. As he held me closer I could instantly feel any doubts melt away, I knew now, it felt right, now was definitely the right time.
I slowly rolled around so I was facing him and drew him into a very passionate kiss. I rolled us over and positioned myself on top of him, right before breaking the kiss. Still on top of him I sat up, and nervously straddled his hips.
"Kris," I said. "I think it's time we take this relationship to the next level. I think we should -"
I froze in mid sentence I couldn't even say it. I couldn't believe this, Kris was supposed to be the shy one here not me.
"We should…?" he said knowing perfectly well what I meant.
I smiled seductively, placing my hands on the bottom of my nightgown. "I think you know what I mean."
He blushed bright red but still grew a grin on his face. "Yeah I believe I do."
I started to pull my nightgown up, but only reached halfway up my stomach before the door suddenly swung open.
Acting purely on instinct I let my nightgown drop again, and reluctantly rolled off my boyfriend.
Cam came rushing into the room running up to the bed, and started pulling on the covers.
"Kris! Jenn!" he yelled pulling on the covers. "You have to come quick! See what's on TV."
"Cam!" Kris said with gritted teeth. "Aren't you supposed to be asleep?"
"It's vacation," Cam said. "You can't waist it by sleeping. Besides you have to wake up and see what's happening."
"Sorry to interrupt – whatever you were doing," Elecmon said walking into the room.
"You've got to see this now!" Penguinmon said also walking into the room.
"This better be good," I said getting up from the bed.
Kris followed my lead, and also got up, and we followed Cam, Elecmon, and Penguinmon downstairs and into the living room.
"See there!" Cam said pointing to the TV.
I groggily to adjust my eyes to the light of the TV, but they instantly snapped open as I saw pictures of Digimon attacking and destroying the buildings that I recognized as part of our town. Not very powerful Digimon, none over the Champion level, but I really didn't like what was going on.
"….a month ago similar monster attacks occurred and were thought to have ended after the month of peace." The reporter said on the TV. "Many believe that these attacks may be related to the freak tornado attack last month and…"
"See!" Cam yelled. "It's important! Those monsters are back!"
"Not again!" I yelled. "No way, Evamon can't be back! We saw him die, even the guardian Digimon said he was dead."
"You know, I don't think this is Evamon," Kris said.
"What makes you say that?" Elecmon asked.
"Look at those Digimon," Kris said pointing to the pictures on the screen. "There's no order to the way they're attacking, when Elecmon's minions attacks, there was at least some sort of order to the chaos, but here they're just random attacks. This isn't Elecmon's style."
"You're right," Penguinmon said. "Also they don't have the same look on their faces that Evamon's minions have, they look more confused and scared than the angry looks that Evamon's minions had."
"So what is this then?" I asked. "Some sort of new enemy?"
"Possibly," Kris said. "But what I'm thinking is that Evamon left the balance still undisturbed and it's letting Digimon into the real world somehow, and their confused and scared, I think it's time we got everyone on the phone, it's time to send those Digimon home."
"Are you and Elecmon going to kick some monster butt again?" Cam asked excited.
"Sure are bud," Kris said patting his little brother on the head.
Kris made his way to the phone with Elecmon at his side, and his little brother bouncing around him saying random cute little kid things.
I sighed. "So much for what I had planned."
Penguinmon and I joined Kris, Elecmon and Cam. It looked like what we thought was over was starting all over again.
* * *
We managed to get a hold of everyone on the phone, everyone was going to head to town separately and deal with the Digimon they encountered. So far this didn't look to serious just a couple of Champion Digimon to take care of, though that didn't mean we still weren't on our guard. If this was a new and powerful enemy we needed to be careful.
Kris and I were now inside Armyleomon's dome, flying above our town with Penguinmon hiding on his head.
"Getting anything yet?" I asked Kris.
"As a matter of fact I just did," Kris answered looking at the radar of his D3. "I'm picking up about a dozen Digimon just below us"
"Should I land and take care of them?" Armyleomon asked.
"Take a look," Kris said pointing down at about a dozen dog like Digimon, Gazimon, all holding some sort of produce. "They're only rookies, and all their doing is stealing fruit from the supermarket, they're not causing all that much damage, what I'm worried about are two or three Snimon ahead destroying buildings just ahead."
"So we're going ahead?"
"Actually come to think of it I think you better land, in that alley over there."
"Alright," Armyleomon said veering to the left and without asking he landed in the alley like Kris had asked him to. Armyleomon's dome opened
"Okay everybody out," Kris said.
"I thought you didn't want to bother with the Gazimon just yet," I said climbing out and jumping to the ground, right before picking up Penguinmon and held her in my arms.
"I'm not," Kris said as the dome suddenly slammed shut with him still inside.
"Hey what are you doing?" I yelled.
"Sorry Jenn, you know I love you, but I can't take you with me, Armyleomon and I can't fight to our full potential with you with us."
"What are you talking about? Penguinmon can Digivolve and help you!"
"Jenn if I were you I'd take a look at your D3."
"Why?"
"You'll get your answer when you look."
I sighed as I took my Digivice out of my pocket turning it to radar mode. I saw one and a half Digimon aside from our own, as well as one black dot in the center, if the scale was correct it was in the town square, (or what used to be the town square) exactly where we'd defeated Evamon.
"I'm assuming you know what that block dot is after what happened in Japan," he said.
"Yeah," I answered. "It's a control spire…so that's why you don't want me to come, because Penguinmon can't Digivolve."
"Yeah, so it's better that you stay here where it's safe, Armyleomon and I can handle those Snimon."
"Kris you can't beat six Champion Digimon. I'll admit for a Champion Armyleomon is tough but he's not that tough."
"I'm aware of that, but right now those Digimon are destroying our town, and probably hurting innocent people, and Armyleomon is the only Digimon capable of taking them on, so it's not like I have a choice."
"But-"
"Don't worry, coincidently the Snimon are very close to the Control Spire, hopefully we'll be able to take it out before the Snimon can take us out. Keep on eye on your D3 when that black dot disappears it's your cue for Penguinmon to Digivolve and give me some backup. Oh and here take this." He removed his laptop from his backup and handed it to me. "If you get into trouble use the instant messenger program to contact me on my D-Terminal."
"Okay," I said reluctantly. I didn't like the idea of him rushing of to certain danger, but I'd gotten used to it.
"Don't get yourself killed. I love you."
He blew a kiss through the dome, and gave a wave goodbye. "I love you too."
Armyleomon's engines fired up and they were in the air on their way to the square.
"He does that a lot doesn't he?" Penguinmon said.
"Yeah too much," I said. "But it's something I've got to expect when he's the leader of the of the Digidestined. At least most of the time I get to face that danger with him."
It wasn't long before something happened, but not with Kris, the black dot still remained on my Digivice. We both heard a scream coming from outside the alley.
"I don't like the sound of that," Penguinmon said.
I don't care if Kris had told me to stay here, there were Gazimon out there, and even though they were only rookies to a human they were dangerous. I rushed to the edge of the alley and Penguinmon and I peaked our heads around the corner.
The scream had come from a teenage girl; she looked like she was about seventeen, and was surrounded by Gazimon who were firing bolts of electricity from their eyes at the girl's feet and laughing.
"Those sure looks like they could be Evamon's minions," I said. "The way they're torturing that girl."
"Nah, they're just Gazimon, they've never been very polite even free ones act this way. They're not bad just trouble makers."
"Then let's end their trouble."
"Are you sure that's a good idea? I mean yeah they're only rookies, but so am I, and there's twelve of them."
"We don't need to beat them," I said. "Just turn their attention from that innocent girl to us."
"And what do we do after we have their attention?"
"By then Kris should have destroyed the control spire and you can Digivolve and easily beat them."
"That's a little risky isn't it?"
"I know it's risky, but right now Kris is risking his life to save innocent people, and I know that he'd want me to do the same."
"Okay," my Digimon said. "But I still think it's dangerous."
"Of course it's dangerous what part of this war isn't, let's just do it."
We acted immediately and jumped out of the alley.
"Ice Slide!" Penguinmon yelled firing her attack, which hit one of the Gazimon in the back and sent him slamming into a building freezing him to it.
Our plan had worked the Gazimon turned to us and their eyes locked in an angry stare, only moments before they angrily charged us.
I took my Digivice out of my pocket and turned it to radar mode. "Uh oh." I said after seeing the black dot was still on the screen.
"You better not be telling me that the control spires still up?" Penguinmon said.
"Yeah kind of."
"I told you this was a bad idea!"
The Gotsumon continued to charge, Penguinmon used her Ice Slide for a while, and it managed to take out a couple of them, but soon they had either managed to counter them with their own attacks, or just plain dodge them. They were getting even closer, and yeah they were only rookies, but there were a lot of them.
"The laptop!" Penguinmon yelled. "Use the laptop call Kris for help."
"Yeah good point," I said popping open the laptop. "Now where does Kris keep this instant messenger pro-"
"Electric Thunder shock!" one of the Gazimon yelled firing electricity from his ears which hit the my right hand that held my Digivice out of my hand, acting quickly I managed to catch it on top of the laptop. As it hit the laptop both started to react.
"A Digiport." I said.
"We could use it to escape," Penguinmon said.
"I've got a better idea, hold this," I said handing Penguinmon the laptop. I held my Digivice up to the laptop. "Digiport open."
It all happened like we'd seen it before, a glowing white light, but this time I stepped out of the way of the light instead of letting it suck me in. Penguinmon got the idea and held the laptop of to the charging Gazimon, which were immediately sucked into the Digiport, and into the Digital World.
"That was easy enough," Penguinmon said.
"Yeah, a lot more humane too. We don't have to destroy them."
"Bone Boomerang!" a familiar voice yelled from behind us.
"What now?" I groaned turning to the direction of the voice.
Behind us there were three Mojyamon running a mock smashing vehicles and the windows to stores.
"It never ends does it?" Penguinmon said.
"What's going on? I thought Mojyamon were friendly. The ones I met in Emily and Andrew's base sure were."
"They are," Penguinmon said. "This just proves its not Evamon that's behind this, I think Kris's theory was correct, somehow they stumbled into our world and are just lost and confused and don't know how to handle this."
"Then let's do what Kris said and send them home." I yelled running up to the Mojyamon. "Hey guys! Remember me?"
Without warning one of the Mojyamon through one of his bones at me, just as Penguinmon pushed me out of the way.
"Don't you remember me Mojyamon? I helped save you from Emily's base."
The three Mojyamon didn't seem to recognize me and began approaching me with an angry look on their face.
"Leave her alone," Penguinmon said jumping between the Mojyamon and I.
"Raaaar!" the lead Mojyamon roared tossing Penguinmon aside and stepping closer to me. He raised his bone and brought it down hard. I just barely managed to get out of the way as the bone cracked the pavement. I rolled out of the way of a second bone, unfortunately at the same time sending the laptop sliding out of my hands. I began to get up to try and retrieve it but was stopped as the third Mojyamon jumped in front of it. Great…now how was I supposed to send them back.
"Come on you don't want to hurt me," I said. "I – I'm one of the Digidestined remember. You look up to me."
Mojyamon only sneered as he raised his bone. I honestly didn't expect what happened next.
"Lightning paw!" Blackgatomon yelled, as she seemed to magically materialize in front of Mojyamon her electrified paw hitting Mojyamon in the face, causing the icy Digimon to fall to the ground.
"Cat's eye hypnosis!" Blackgatomon yelled firing laser beams from her eyes each one hitting one of the two remaining Digimon in the stomach, which like the first two fell to the ground.
The fallen Mojyamon revealed Emily who now held Kris's laptop.
"I didn't ever expect you to save me," I said giving her an evil glare.
"Likewise," she replied. "But don't consider it a compliment or anything, I'm only here because I've been bored the past month with all this peace. I needed some action for once, even if for once I'm fighting on the opposite side. Now are you going to open the Digiport and send them back or do you want me to tell Blackgatomon to finish them off."
I didn't break the evil stare I was giving her, like I said she hadn't changed very much, she was still willing to kill, but at least now she gave the Mojyamon a chance to live.
I held my Digivice up to the computer. "Digiport open." Just like the Gazimon had the three Mojyamon were sucked into the Digiport transporting them back to the Digital World.
"So are you going to help your boyfriend anytime soon?" she asked.
"What?" I yelled pulling out my Digivice.
"The control spires been down for about five minutes now." She said. "And there's about half a dozen Digimon closing in on them."
As I switched my D3 into radar mode I realized she was right, the black dot was gone now and there were about six Digmon who had Kris and Armyleomon trapped in a circle and where closing in fast.
"Penguinmon Warp Digivolve now!" I commanded.
"Warp Digivolve? Isn't Parrotmon enough?"
"Probably, but I'm not taking any chances when it comes to Kris's life, now just Warp Digivolve."
Penguinmon nodded as my crest and D3 began to glow.
"Penguinmon Warp Digivolved to…………………..Eaglemon!"
I turned to Emily. "I assume you want to-" I stopped talking when I realized both her and Blackgatomon were gone.
'Where'd she go?" Eaglemon asked. "Not even I noticed she left."
"Doesn't matter, it a good thing actually. I know she's not into the Digimon Empress thing anymore, but I still don't want her going anywhere near Kris. Let's just forget her and go."
Eaglemon nodded and took off into the air. Traveling at half full speed we reached the town square within seconds, and saw exactly what we expected to see Kris and Armyleomon surrounded by six Snimon.
"Cross Wing!" Eaglemon yelled bringing her wings together and firing a golden beam.
The beam eventually split into six smaller beams, hitting the Snimon with amazing accuracy. Eaglemon had lowered the normal power of her attack; they were at a fraction of their full power. If they had been hit by a full power attack it would have killed them instantly instead it just hurt them enough you they were dazed and began to fall.
"You know what to do Eaglemon."
Indeed she did she dove under all the falling Snimon. I quickly opened the Digiport and sucked the six Digimon inside.
"Took you long enough," Kris said as Armyleomon flew down to our level. He was obviously scared. His face was sweaty and he was panting heavily.
"Sorry, we hit a little snag." I said as my eyes darted temporarily to Emily and Blackgatomon.
"Interesting, you found a way to send them back," Kris said. "Great! We're going to need it. There are a lot more Digimon to get back to the Digital World. I've got about an e-mail on my D-Terminal from ever member of our team, they managed to subdue some of them after we destroyed the control spire but they have no idea what to do with them."
I sighed. "So our job is to go around town and use your laptop to send them back to the Digital World?"
"That's the gist of it." Kris said.
I sighed a second time. "A Digidestined's work is never done."
* * *
It was about an hour later, during which Kris, Armyleomon, Eaglemon and I had met up with the others and sent the Digimon they had cornered back to the Digital world without incident. None of them had any difficulty with them, none of the Digimon were over the Champion level, so even when there were groups of them their Digimon just Digivolved to their Ultimate level and easily subdued them long enough for us to show up and send them back home. After we had done that we had all gathered during in the deserted spot in the outskirts of town, the same spot where he had said goodbye to our Japanese allies.
"So basically this is what we're dealing with," Dan said after hearing Kris's explanations. "Innocent Digimon that just happened to stumble into the real world because Evamon disturbed the balance between the two worlds?"
"Well it's a theory," Kris said. "It's not necessarily true, but it does look like it's true. I mean none of those Digimon who were attacking didn't seem to have any order to their attacks like Evamon's minions, they just randomly attacked and caused trouble, it looked to me like they were just confused and scared."
"But if they stumbled through a stray Digiport once who's to say it won't happen again?" Rob asked.
"That's kind of the problem we're faced with," Kris said. "They probably will, and ever once and a while we'll have Digimon popping up here all over again."
"So every couple of days we're going to have to do through this again!" Janine yelled.
"Only for a while," Elecmon said speaking for Kris. "See Tai told us that when Apocalymon was defeated and things calmed down for a while the balance of the two worlds that had been disturbed by the Dark Masters was disturbed for a while but slowly began to balance out, and it returned to normal, that was until Evamon attacked again and disturbed it even more than it was before."
"So basically with each passing day there will be less and less Digimon until there are none at all?" Sean asked.
"Yeah that's basically the idea." I said.
"You're close," a familiar voice said in the distance, which we now knew pretty well, Baihumon.
He didn't appear in his traditional way this time, he materialized in front of us, his giant paws making a thud as they landed on the ground.
"Oh no," Gizamon said. "I don't like the look of this. Whenever you show up it means there's a big enemy we've got to face."
"Once again you're close," Baihumon said.
"What do you mean by that?" I asked. "What's happening?"
"You were correct about the Digimon attacking because they were lost and confused, however they didn't just stumble upon Digiports, they were opened for them and pushed them through."
"Who?" All sixteen of our voices boomed at the same time.
"Jenn, Sean I believe you met some of his minions in Japan."
"Oh my God," I yelled. "He's right, when Kris and Andrew were fighting Diaboromon Sean, Yolei, Cody, and I ran into their minions Arukenemon, and Mummymon, they did mention their master, and that he was even stronger than Evamon."
"You don't have to worry about him being stronger than Evamon," Baihumon said. "Mummymon and Arukenemon are just arrogant their master isn't half as strong as Evamon was, in fact you won't even have to deal with him, that is something that the Japanese Digidestined can deal with alone. You do still have a job to do."
"And that would be?" Dan asked.
"As you know Digimon have begun appearing in the real world, but it isn't just here, Digiports around the world have opened releasing hundreds of lost and confused Digimon into the world. In twelve locations, so far two of those have been closed, the one here which you closed, and the one in Japan which the Japanese Digidestined closed."
"And the others?" Kris asked.
"The ten others are in America, Mexico, Brazil, France, England, Egypt, Russia, China, Italy, and Australia."
"How are we supposed to close all those before any serious damage can be caused?" Andrew asked. "It would take us a whole day just to get to one of the locations, and by then the Digimon could have cause some serious damage."
"That is why I'm here," Baihumon said. "The Japanese Digidestined was presented with the same problem about an hour ago, before their guardian Azulongmon presented them with one of his Digicores, which allowed Paildramon to Digivolve to Imperialdramon, an incredibly fast Digimon able to travel around the world within minutes. They are already on their way to close the Digiports in Mexico, America, France, Russia, China, and Australia. It is up to you to close the other four Digiports in Italy, England, Brazil and Egypt, and I'm going to give you a way to get there." One of the balls that were surrounding Baihumon's waist hovered away from its orbit at his waist and in front of his face. "I present you with my Digicore, Elecmon if you would please Armor Digivolve I will use it."
"Alright," Elecmon said not asking any questions. "Kris? Got the egg?"
"Got it," Kris said popping open his D-Terminal. "Digi – Armor energize!"
"Elecmon Armor Digivolved to…………………Armyleomon!"
"Now!" Baihumon said.
The Digicore that hovered in front of his face began to glow shooting beams of blue light from it, all of which converged on Armyleomon, engulfing him in light.
"Armyleomon mode changed to………………..Commercial Mode!"
I stared in awe as the light cleared and Armyleomon's new form was revealed. He was about ten times bigger than the original Armyleomon, about the size of a commercial airplane, and the dome that was on his back was much bigger, it could now fit much more people than just one or two that were close, and you could stand up in it and still have the glass only a foot above your head. It even had very comfortable looked seats lined up in it. His wings had grown in length, and had lost the missiles replaced with two extra jet engines; actually aside from the size and the much comfier dome on his back he looked just like the old Armyleomon.
"That turned out much better than I thought," Baihumon said. "You even have reclining seats in there, while the Japanese Digidestined have to ride on a windy Imperialdramon you get the luxury of a Digimon with the equivalent of a first class commercial jet."
"Wow!" Dan said. "Now that is style. This is going to be a very comfortable ride around the world."
"Enjoy you're trip Digidestined," Baihumon said. "Remember, you have four stops around the world. Brazil, Italy, Egypt, and England. Close the Digiports there and your job will be finished, just leave the rest to the Japanese Digidestined."
Kris nodded and gave a salute as Baihumon simply disappeared in the same way that he had appeared.
"I'm assuming we're doing this now," I said. "There's not really much time to waist is there?"
"Nope sure isn't," Armyleomon said. "Come on let's go, I want to try out this cool new body."
"Don't worry, you're short wait is over," Kris said. "We're going now."
"Wait!" Someone yelled from behind us, we recognized that voice instantly as Emily's.
It was confirmed as we turned around and saw Emily with Blackgatomon on her shoulder's approaching us.
"What is she doing here?" Dan asked very coldly.
"She is coming with you," Emily said just as cold you.
"Why are you suddenly interested in doing the right thing?" I asked. Maybe it sounded mean, but after all the things she'd done she deserved it.
"Look, I saw your little chat with your kitty cat friend there, and I'm coming with you. Not because I want to help or anything, just because – well I've been bored okay."
"I don't think so," Dan said. "Letting Andrew into our group was one thing, but you! Andrew thought the whole thing was a game, you knew it was real and you still tortured and killed innocent Digimon. There isn't anyway any of us are going to let you come along."
For once I was in total agreement with Dan, sure Emily seemed to have given up her evil ways as the Digimon Empress, but I could safely say she wasn't a very trustworthy person. She wasn't stupid either, she knew she couldn't beat us the way she was now Blackgatomon couldn't even Digivolve, compared to even one of our Digimon's Ultimate forms she was nothing, she could just be biding our time gaining our trust and waiting for the right moment to attack, just like Hitler had done.
I could tell by looking at the others eyes that they pretty much agreed with me, they did not want her coming along, with the exception of maybe Rob, he just kind of looked away and avoided everyone else's gaze
"Alright, come on." Kris said much to everyone's shock. "If you want feel free."
"What?!" fourteen voices yelled.
"Kris, are you nuts?" Dan yelled.
"We gave Andrew a second chance," Kris said. "And look how well that turned out. It wouldn't be fair if we didn't give Emily that same chance."
"You know her! You know what she's done!" Sean yelled. "She's not like Andrew!"
"Everyone just shut up!" Rob yelled. "Stop fighting, you want solid proof if she's trust worthy or not. You all saw her crest it's gone. If she had bad intentions and planned to stab us in the back then there would still be pure darkness in her heart, and thus she'd have her crest, but in case you noticed it's gone. So I think we can give her a second chance, or are Kris and I the only ones who have seen that."
We all stared blankly at Rob, probably the same question running through our heads. 'Why did he just stick up for Emily'? The stares stopped quickly, the others probably came to the assumption that he had stuck up for her because of what he had just said her crest of Darkness was gone, which was true that was probably one of the reasons, but I had a suspicion that there was some other reason he had stuck up for her, I mean if it was just for that one reason he wouldn't have gotten so angry about it and told us to shut up.
"Fine," Dan grumbled. "But if she shows even one hint of betrayal don't expect me to stick around for very long."
"Thank you," Emily said smugly satisfied she'd won the argument.
"Ok now that your argument has finally settled let's get going," Saberleomon said as his dome slid open and a ramp slid down his side. "It's time to board Armyleomon airlines."
Without too much hesitation, we all climbed up the ramp and into the dome, I took a seat in the front next to Kris. Keeping an eye on Emily making sure she didn't sit any where near us. I still didn't like that she was even coming with us. Maybe I was being paranoid, but still after all the things she had done I had a right to be.
Armyleomon slowly began to hover above the ground.
"Please keep your seatbelts fastened and your seats in the full upright position during takeoff," he said. "And if you feel the need to vomit, please don't, the floor was just waxed."
The engines on the wings activated and we thrust forward at an incredible speed, and thus began our World Tour.
---------------------------
There we go the intro is done, and in case your wondering this won't be like the World Tour from the series, the first couple Chapters will be, however this will slowly develop an actual plot, unlike the one from the series which ended kind of abruptly. Anyway…I'm hoping to have it up maybe…well I better not say because I might not be able to beat that deadline.
Stay tuned for Chapter 41: Mission One Italy
Chapter 40: New Mission New Enemy
Jenn
It had been a month since our last battle. One month of total bliss, for once we were actually living in peace, for an entire month we actually lived the lives of normal teenagers, not having to worry about saving the world from monsters, for one month our biggest worries were schoolwork, I think Dan was the only one who wasn't happy about that, needless to say he missed all the fighting. Aside from our Digimon friends our lives had finally returned to normal. Even Andrew and Emily had managed to regain their normal life, which they hadn't had for fourteen years. Their mother managed to find a good job, it was hard to get one after being "dead" for fourteen years. Their father was still recovering in the clinic, but we'd heard he was only about a month away from recovery.
Andrew was now more open to socializing, and was actually willing to hang out with us, sometimes he was actually friendly. Emily was a different story; she hadn't changed a whole lot since she'd returned. She'd given up enslaving, torturing and killing innocent Digimon, but she was still as cold and mean as ever she wasn't very friendly. Every once and a while she'd tag along with Andrew and hang out with us, but she would never say anything, she'd just keep an angry look on her face, either that or find some way to insult us. Her family was returned to normal but I don't thing that was going to change her anytime soon.
But aside from her everything else was paradise, this past month being with Kris was just perfect, we spent almost every waking moment together, of course we had even before we got together, but it was never as good as this. I'd never had a relationship like this before; he was my best friend and my boyfriend at the same time, it was perfect, just like the present moment.
I had just recently woken up, as my eyes met the clock, which read six AM. Perfect, that still left us hours to stay like this, not enough if you asked me. We were lying in his bed, his loving arms around me holding me close, and sleeping very soundly, it was just too perfect. His parents had gone out of town for some Christmas work thing, I wasn't quite sure what it was I don't think Kris was either, but that didn't really matter. All that matters was that I was with him right now.
We hadn't done anything serious last night, all we'd done was kiss and cuddle the way we were doing right now. Yet the entire night my mind had wandered and I thought if we would. I was pretty surprised when he had asked me to stay over, it wouldn't have been the first time, but it would be the first time since we had become an official couple, and I had no ideas what his intentions where in inviting me over. Whether they where so we could take our relationship to the next level and sleep together, or simply so we could cuddle like this, though if he had suggested that we have sex I probably wouldn't have objected.
We had been only dating for a little over a month, and yeah that seemed a little to soon to be even considering having sex, actually I had thought that myself when Kris and I first started going out, but then as we got closer and the relationship got even more intense the idea of us sleeping together seemed to feel even more right, even if it had only been a little over a month because we'd been friends for so long it seemed like we'd been going out all our lives.
The truth was I was really hoping that Kris would make a move tonight, hoping he would, but not expecting it. He was way to shy to try something like that; it was something that I'd probably have to do, not that I minded of course his shyness was one of the reasons I cared for him so much. I'd even debated making the first move myself, that's why I'd had protection. My eyes met my backpack, which contained my small round and flat protection, birth control pills. I'd been taking shortly after the battle with Evamon. That's when I first began to consider taking our relationship to the next step.
I had gotten a pretty big scare when my Mom found them in my pocket while she was doing the laundry. For a second I thought I was dead, but all she was that she was proud of me for being responsible, and to make sure that I never mentioned it to my father. Later I learned that my mother had lost her virginity at about my age, she probably would have considered herself a hypocrite if she'd told me not to.
I slowly faded out of my thoughts as I felt the warm body beside me began to stir.
"Morning," Kris said kissing the back of my neck. "Merry Christmas."
"Christmas Eve actually," I corrected.
He only laughed cuddled closer to me, again lovingly kissing my neck. As he held me closer I could instantly feel any doubts melt away, I knew now, it felt right, now was definitely the right time.
I slowly rolled around so I was facing him and drew him into a very passionate kiss. I rolled us over and positioned myself on top of him, right before breaking the kiss. Still on top of him I sat up, and nervously straddled his hips.
"Kris," I said. "I think it's time we take this relationship to the next level. I think we should -"
I froze in mid sentence I couldn't even say it. I couldn't believe this, Kris was supposed to be the shy one here not me.
"We should…?" he said knowing perfectly well what I meant.
I smiled seductively, placing my hands on the bottom of my nightgown. "I think you know what I mean."
He blushed bright red but still grew a grin on his face. "Yeah I believe I do."
I started to pull my nightgown up, but only reached halfway up my stomach before the door suddenly swung open.
Acting purely on instinct I let my nightgown drop again, and reluctantly rolled off my boyfriend.
Cam came rushing into the room running up to the bed, and started pulling on the covers.
"Kris! Jenn!" he yelled pulling on the covers. "You have to come quick! See what's on TV."
"Cam!" Kris said with gritted teeth. "Aren't you supposed to be asleep?"
"It's vacation," Cam said. "You can't waist it by sleeping. Besides you have to wake up and see what's happening."
"Sorry to interrupt – whatever you were doing," Elecmon said walking into the room.
"You've got to see this now!" Penguinmon said also walking into the room.
"This better be good," I said getting up from the bed.
Kris followed my lead, and also got up, and we followed Cam, Elecmon, and Penguinmon downstairs and into the living room.
"See there!" Cam said pointing to the TV.
I groggily to adjust my eyes to the light of the TV, but they instantly snapped open as I saw pictures of Digimon attacking and destroying the buildings that I recognized as part of our town. Not very powerful Digimon, none over the Champion level, but I really didn't like what was going on.
"….a month ago similar monster attacks occurred and were thought to have ended after the month of peace." The reporter said on the TV. "Many believe that these attacks may be related to the freak tornado attack last month and…"
"See!" Cam yelled. "It's important! Those monsters are back!"
"Not again!" I yelled. "No way, Evamon can't be back! We saw him die, even the guardian Digimon said he was dead."
"You know, I don't think this is Evamon," Kris said.
"What makes you say that?" Elecmon asked.
"Look at those Digimon," Kris said pointing to the pictures on the screen. "There's no order to the way they're attacking, when Elecmon's minions attacks, there was at least some sort of order to the chaos, but here they're just random attacks. This isn't Elecmon's style."
"You're right," Penguinmon said. "Also they don't have the same look on their faces that Evamon's minions have, they look more confused and scared than the angry looks that Evamon's minions had."
"So what is this then?" I asked. "Some sort of new enemy?"
"Possibly," Kris said. "But what I'm thinking is that Evamon left the balance still undisturbed and it's letting Digimon into the real world somehow, and their confused and scared, I think it's time we got everyone on the phone, it's time to send those Digimon home."
"Are you and Elecmon going to kick some monster butt again?" Cam asked excited.
"Sure are bud," Kris said patting his little brother on the head.
Kris made his way to the phone with Elecmon at his side, and his little brother bouncing around him saying random cute little kid things.
I sighed. "So much for what I had planned."
Penguinmon and I joined Kris, Elecmon and Cam. It looked like what we thought was over was starting all over again.
* * *
We managed to get a hold of everyone on the phone, everyone was going to head to town separately and deal with the Digimon they encountered. So far this didn't look to serious just a couple of Champion Digimon to take care of, though that didn't mean we still weren't on our guard. If this was a new and powerful enemy we needed to be careful.
Kris and I were now inside Armyleomon's dome, flying above our town with Penguinmon hiding on his head.
"Getting anything yet?" I asked Kris.
"As a matter of fact I just did," Kris answered looking at the radar of his D3. "I'm picking up about a dozen Digimon just below us"
"Should I land and take care of them?" Armyleomon asked.
"Take a look," Kris said pointing down at about a dozen dog like Digimon, Gazimon, all holding some sort of produce. "They're only rookies, and all their doing is stealing fruit from the supermarket, they're not causing all that much damage, what I'm worried about are two or three Snimon ahead destroying buildings just ahead."
"So we're going ahead?"
"Actually come to think of it I think you better land, in that alley over there."
"Alright," Armyleomon said veering to the left and without asking he landed in the alley like Kris had asked him to. Armyleomon's dome opened
"Okay everybody out," Kris said.
"I thought you didn't want to bother with the Gazimon just yet," I said climbing out and jumping to the ground, right before picking up Penguinmon and held her in my arms.
"I'm not," Kris said as the dome suddenly slammed shut with him still inside.
"Hey what are you doing?" I yelled.
"Sorry Jenn, you know I love you, but I can't take you with me, Armyleomon and I can't fight to our full potential with you with us."
"What are you talking about? Penguinmon can Digivolve and help you!"
"Jenn if I were you I'd take a look at your D3."
"Why?"
"You'll get your answer when you look."
I sighed as I took my Digivice out of my pocket turning it to radar mode. I saw one and a half Digimon aside from our own, as well as one black dot in the center, if the scale was correct it was in the town square, (or what used to be the town square) exactly where we'd defeated Evamon.
"I'm assuming you know what that block dot is after what happened in Japan," he said.
"Yeah," I answered. "It's a control spire…so that's why you don't want me to come, because Penguinmon can't Digivolve."
"Yeah, so it's better that you stay here where it's safe, Armyleomon and I can handle those Snimon."
"Kris you can't beat six Champion Digimon. I'll admit for a Champion Armyleomon is tough but he's not that tough."
"I'm aware of that, but right now those Digimon are destroying our town, and probably hurting innocent people, and Armyleomon is the only Digimon capable of taking them on, so it's not like I have a choice."
"But-"
"Don't worry, coincidently the Snimon are very close to the Control Spire, hopefully we'll be able to take it out before the Snimon can take us out. Keep on eye on your D3 when that black dot disappears it's your cue for Penguinmon to Digivolve and give me some backup. Oh and here take this." He removed his laptop from his backup and handed it to me. "If you get into trouble use the instant messenger program to contact me on my D-Terminal."
"Okay," I said reluctantly. I didn't like the idea of him rushing of to certain danger, but I'd gotten used to it.
"Don't get yourself killed. I love you."
He blew a kiss through the dome, and gave a wave goodbye. "I love you too."
Armyleomon's engines fired up and they were in the air on their way to the square.
"He does that a lot doesn't he?" Penguinmon said.
"Yeah too much," I said. "But it's something I've got to expect when he's the leader of the of the Digidestined. At least most of the time I get to face that danger with him."
It wasn't long before something happened, but not with Kris, the black dot still remained on my Digivice. We both heard a scream coming from outside the alley.
"I don't like the sound of that," Penguinmon said.
I don't care if Kris had told me to stay here, there were Gazimon out there, and even though they were only rookies to a human they were dangerous. I rushed to the edge of the alley and Penguinmon and I peaked our heads around the corner.
The scream had come from a teenage girl; she looked like she was about seventeen, and was surrounded by Gazimon who were firing bolts of electricity from their eyes at the girl's feet and laughing.
"Those sure looks like they could be Evamon's minions," I said. "The way they're torturing that girl."
"Nah, they're just Gazimon, they've never been very polite even free ones act this way. They're not bad just trouble makers."
"Then let's end their trouble."
"Are you sure that's a good idea? I mean yeah they're only rookies, but so am I, and there's twelve of them."
"We don't need to beat them," I said. "Just turn their attention from that innocent girl to us."
"And what do we do after we have their attention?"
"By then Kris should have destroyed the control spire and you can Digivolve and easily beat them."
"That's a little risky isn't it?"
"I know it's risky, but right now Kris is risking his life to save innocent people, and I know that he'd want me to do the same."
"Okay," my Digimon said. "But I still think it's dangerous."
"Of course it's dangerous what part of this war isn't, let's just do it."
We acted immediately and jumped out of the alley.
"Ice Slide!" Penguinmon yelled firing her attack, which hit one of the Gazimon in the back and sent him slamming into a building freezing him to it.
Our plan had worked the Gazimon turned to us and their eyes locked in an angry stare, only moments before they angrily charged us.
I took my Digivice out of my pocket and turned it to radar mode. "Uh oh." I said after seeing the black dot was still on the screen.
"You better not be telling me that the control spires still up?" Penguinmon said.
"Yeah kind of."
"I told you this was a bad idea!"
The Gotsumon continued to charge, Penguinmon used her Ice Slide for a while, and it managed to take out a couple of them, but soon they had either managed to counter them with their own attacks, or just plain dodge them. They were getting even closer, and yeah they were only rookies, but there were a lot of them.
"The laptop!" Penguinmon yelled. "Use the laptop call Kris for help."
"Yeah good point," I said popping open the laptop. "Now where does Kris keep this instant messenger pro-"
"Electric Thunder shock!" one of the Gazimon yelled firing electricity from his ears which hit the my right hand that held my Digivice out of my hand, acting quickly I managed to catch it on top of the laptop. As it hit the laptop both started to react.
"A Digiport." I said.
"We could use it to escape," Penguinmon said.
"I've got a better idea, hold this," I said handing Penguinmon the laptop. I held my Digivice up to the laptop. "Digiport open."
It all happened like we'd seen it before, a glowing white light, but this time I stepped out of the way of the light instead of letting it suck me in. Penguinmon got the idea and held the laptop of to the charging Gazimon, which were immediately sucked into the Digiport, and into the Digital World.
"That was easy enough," Penguinmon said.
"Yeah, a lot more humane too. We don't have to destroy them."
"Bone Boomerang!" a familiar voice yelled from behind us.
"What now?" I groaned turning to the direction of the voice.
Behind us there were three Mojyamon running a mock smashing vehicles and the windows to stores.
"It never ends does it?" Penguinmon said.
"What's going on? I thought Mojyamon were friendly. The ones I met in Emily and Andrew's base sure were."
"They are," Penguinmon said. "This just proves its not Evamon that's behind this, I think Kris's theory was correct, somehow they stumbled into our world and are just lost and confused and don't know how to handle this."
"Then let's do what Kris said and send them home." I yelled running up to the Mojyamon. "Hey guys! Remember me?"
Without warning one of the Mojyamon through one of his bones at me, just as Penguinmon pushed me out of the way.
"Don't you remember me Mojyamon? I helped save you from Emily's base."
The three Mojyamon didn't seem to recognize me and began approaching me with an angry look on their face.
"Leave her alone," Penguinmon said jumping between the Mojyamon and I.
"Raaaar!" the lead Mojyamon roared tossing Penguinmon aside and stepping closer to me. He raised his bone and brought it down hard. I just barely managed to get out of the way as the bone cracked the pavement. I rolled out of the way of a second bone, unfortunately at the same time sending the laptop sliding out of my hands. I began to get up to try and retrieve it but was stopped as the third Mojyamon jumped in front of it. Great…now how was I supposed to send them back.
"Come on you don't want to hurt me," I said. "I – I'm one of the Digidestined remember. You look up to me."
Mojyamon only sneered as he raised his bone. I honestly didn't expect what happened next.
"Lightning paw!" Blackgatomon yelled, as she seemed to magically materialize in front of Mojyamon her electrified paw hitting Mojyamon in the face, causing the icy Digimon to fall to the ground.
"Cat's eye hypnosis!" Blackgatomon yelled firing laser beams from her eyes each one hitting one of the two remaining Digimon in the stomach, which like the first two fell to the ground.
The fallen Mojyamon revealed Emily who now held Kris's laptop.
"I didn't ever expect you to save me," I said giving her an evil glare.
"Likewise," she replied. "But don't consider it a compliment or anything, I'm only here because I've been bored the past month with all this peace. I needed some action for once, even if for once I'm fighting on the opposite side. Now are you going to open the Digiport and send them back or do you want me to tell Blackgatomon to finish them off."
I didn't break the evil stare I was giving her, like I said she hadn't changed very much, she was still willing to kill, but at least now she gave the Mojyamon a chance to live.
I held my Digivice up to the computer. "Digiport open." Just like the Gazimon had the three Mojyamon were sucked into the Digiport transporting them back to the Digital World.
"So are you going to help your boyfriend anytime soon?" she asked.
"What?" I yelled pulling out my Digivice.
"The control spires been down for about five minutes now." She said. "And there's about half a dozen Digimon closing in on them."
As I switched my D3 into radar mode I realized she was right, the black dot was gone now and there were about six Digmon who had Kris and Armyleomon trapped in a circle and where closing in fast.
"Penguinmon Warp Digivolve now!" I commanded.
"Warp Digivolve? Isn't Parrotmon enough?"
"Probably, but I'm not taking any chances when it comes to Kris's life, now just Warp Digivolve."
Penguinmon nodded as my crest and D3 began to glow.
"Penguinmon Warp Digivolved to…………………..Eaglemon!"
I turned to Emily. "I assume you want to-" I stopped talking when I realized both her and Blackgatomon were gone.
'Where'd she go?" Eaglemon asked. "Not even I noticed she left."
"Doesn't matter, it a good thing actually. I know she's not into the Digimon Empress thing anymore, but I still don't want her going anywhere near Kris. Let's just forget her and go."
Eaglemon nodded and took off into the air. Traveling at half full speed we reached the town square within seconds, and saw exactly what we expected to see Kris and Armyleomon surrounded by six Snimon.
"Cross Wing!" Eaglemon yelled bringing her wings together and firing a golden beam.
The beam eventually split into six smaller beams, hitting the Snimon with amazing accuracy. Eaglemon had lowered the normal power of her attack; they were at a fraction of their full power. If they had been hit by a full power attack it would have killed them instantly instead it just hurt them enough you they were dazed and began to fall.
"You know what to do Eaglemon."
Indeed she did she dove under all the falling Snimon. I quickly opened the Digiport and sucked the six Digimon inside.
"Took you long enough," Kris said as Armyleomon flew down to our level. He was obviously scared. His face was sweaty and he was panting heavily.
"Sorry, we hit a little snag." I said as my eyes darted temporarily to Emily and Blackgatomon.
"Interesting, you found a way to send them back," Kris said. "Great! We're going to need it. There are a lot more Digimon to get back to the Digital World. I've got about an e-mail on my D-Terminal from ever member of our team, they managed to subdue some of them after we destroyed the control spire but they have no idea what to do with them."
I sighed. "So our job is to go around town and use your laptop to send them back to the Digital World?"
"That's the gist of it." Kris said.
I sighed a second time. "A Digidestined's work is never done."
* * *
It was about an hour later, during which Kris, Armyleomon, Eaglemon and I had met up with the others and sent the Digimon they had cornered back to the Digital world without incident. None of them had any difficulty with them, none of the Digimon were over the Champion level, so even when there were groups of them their Digimon just Digivolved to their Ultimate level and easily subdued them long enough for us to show up and send them back home. After we had done that we had all gathered during in the deserted spot in the outskirts of town, the same spot where he had said goodbye to our Japanese allies.
"So basically this is what we're dealing with," Dan said after hearing Kris's explanations. "Innocent Digimon that just happened to stumble into the real world because Evamon disturbed the balance between the two worlds?"
"Well it's a theory," Kris said. "It's not necessarily true, but it does look like it's true. I mean none of those Digimon who were attacking didn't seem to have any order to their attacks like Evamon's minions, they just randomly attacked and caused trouble, it looked to me like they were just confused and scared."
"But if they stumbled through a stray Digiport once who's to say it won't happen again?" Rob asked.
"That's kind of the problem we're faced with," Kris said. "They probably will, and ever once and a while we'll have Digimon popping up here all over again."
"So every couple of days we're going to have to do through this again!" Janine yelled.
"Only for a while," Elecmon said speaking for Kris. "See Tai told us that when Apocalymon was defeated and things calmed down for a while the balance of the two worlds that had been disturbed by the Dark Masters was disturbed for a while but slowly began to balance out, and it returned to normal, that was until Evamon attacked again and disturbed it even more than it was before."
"So basically with each passing day there will be less and less Digimon until there are none at all?" Sean asked.
"Yeah that's basically the idea." I said.
"You're close," a familiar voice said in the distance, which we now knew pretty well, Baihumon.
He didn't appear in his traditional way this time, he materialized in front of us, his giant paws making a thud as they landed on the ground.
"Oh no," Gizamon said. "I don't like the look of this. Whenever you show up it means there's a big enemy we've got to face."
"Once again you're close," Baihumon said.
"What do you mean by that?" I asked. "What's happening?"
"You were correct about the Digimon attacking because they were lost and confused, however they didn't just stumble upon Digiports, they were opened for them and pushed them through."
"Who?" All sixteen of our voices boomed at the same time.
"Jenn, Sean I believe you met some of his minions in Japan."
"Oh my God," I yelled. "He's right, when Kris and Andrew were fighting Diaboromon Sean, Yolei, Cody, and I ran into their minions Arukenemon, and Mummymon, they did mention their master, and that he was even stronger than Evamon."
"You don't have to worry about him being stronger than Evamon," Baihumon said. "Mummymon and Arukenemon are just arrogant their master isn't half as strong as Evamon was, in fact you won't even have to deal with him, that is something that the Japanese Digidestined can deal with alone. You do still have a job to do."
"And that would be?" Dan asked.
"As you know Digimon have begun appearing in the real world, but it isn't just here, Digiports around the world have opened releasing hundreds of lost and confused Digimon into the world. In twelve locations, so far two of those have been closed, the one here which you closed, and the one in Japan which the Japanese Digidestined closed."
"And the others?" Kris asked.
"The ten others are in America, Mexico, Brazil, France, England, Egypt, Russia, China, Italy, and Australia."
"How are we supposed to close all those before any serious damage can be caused?" Andrew asked. "It would take us a whole day just to get to one of the locations, and by then the Digimon could have cause some serious damage."
"That is why I'm here," Baihumon said. "The Japanese Digidestined was presented with the same problem about an hour ago, before their guardian Azulongmon presented them with one of his Digicores, which allowed Paildramon to Digivolve to Imperialdramon, an incredibly fast Digimon able to travel around the world within minutes. They are already on their way to close the Digiports in Mexico, America, France, Russia, China, and Australia. It is up to you to close the other four Digiports in Italy, England, Brazil and Egypt, and I'm going to give you a way to get there." One of the balls that were surrounding Baihumon's waist hovered away from its orbit at his waist and in front of his face. "I present you with my Digicore, Elecmon if you would please Armor Digivolve I will use it."
"Alright," Elecmon said not asking any questions. "Kris? Got the egg?"
"Got it," Kris said popping open his D-Terminal. "Digi – Armor energize!"
"Elecmon Armor Digivolved to…………………Armyleomon!"
"Now!" Baihumon said.
The Digicore that hovered in front of his face began to glow shooting beams of blue light from it, all of which converged on Armyleomon, engulfing him in light.
"Armyleomon mode changed to………………..Commercial Mode!"
I stared in awe as the light cleared and Armyleomon's new form was revealed. He was about ten times bigger than the original Armyleomon, about the size of a commercial airplane, and the dome that was on his back was much bigger, it could now fit much more people than just one or two that were close, and you could stand up in it and still have the glass only a foot above your head. It even had very comfortable looked seats lined up in it. His wings had grown in length, and had lost the missiles replaced with two extra jet engines; actually aside from the size and the much comfier dome on his back he looked just like the old Armyleomon.
"That turned out much better than I thought," Baihumon said. "You even have reclining seats in there, while the Japanese Digidestined have to ride on a windy Imperialdramon you get the luxury of a Digimon with the equivalent of a first class commercial jet."
"Wow!" Dan said. "Now that is style. This is going to be a very comfortable ride around the world."
"Enjoy you're trip Digidestined," Baihumon said. "Remember, you have four stops around the world. Brazil, Italy, Egypt, and England. Close the Digiports there and your job will be finished, just leave the rest to the Japanese Digidestined."
Kris nodded and gave a salute as Baihumon simply disappeared in the same way that he had appeared.
"I'm assuming we're doing this now," I said. "There's not really much time to waist is there?"
"Nope sure isn't," Armyleomon said. "Come on let's go, I want to try out this cool new body."
"Don't worry, you're short wait is over," Kris said. "We're going now."
"Wait!" Someone yelled from behind us, we recognized that voice instantly as Emily's.
It was confirmed as we turned around and saw Emily with Blackgatomon on her shoulder's approaching us.
"What is she doing here?" Dan asked very coldly.
"She is coming with you," Emily said just as cold you.
"Why are you suddenly interested in doing the right thing?" I asked. Maybe it sounded mean, but after all the things she'd done she deserved it.
"Look, I saw your little chat with your kitty cat friend there, and I'm coming with you. Not because I want to help or anything, just because – well I've been bored okay."
"I don't think so," Dan said. "Letting Andrew into our group was one thing, but you! Andrew thought the whole thing was a game, you knew it was real and you still tortured and killed innocent Digimon. There isn't anyway any of us are going to let you come along."
For once I was in total agreement with Dan, sure Emily seemed to have given up her evil ways as the Digimon Empress, but I could safely say she wasn't a very trustworthy person. She wasn't stupid either, she knew she couldn't beat us the way she was now Blackgatomon couldn't even Digivolve, compared to even one of our Digimon's Ultimate forms she was nothing, she could just be biding our time gaining our trust and waiting for the right moment to attack, just like Hitler had done.
I could tell by looking at the others eyes that they pretty much agreed with me, they did not want her coming along, with the exception of maybe Rob, he just kind of looked away and avoided everyone else's gaze
"Alright, come on." Kris said much to everyone's shock. "If you want feel free."
"What?!" fourteen voices yelled.
"Kris, are you nuts?" Dan yelled.
"We gave Andrew a second chance," Kris said. "And look how well that turned out. It wouldn't be fair if we didn't give Emily that same chance."
"You know her! You know what she's done!" Sean yelled. "She's not like Andrew!"
"Everyone just shut up!" Rob yelled. "Stop fighting, you want solid proof if she's trust worthy or not. You all saw her crest it's gone. If she had bad intentions and planned to stab us in the back then there would still be pure darkness in her heart, and thus she'd have her crest, but in case you noticed it's gone. So I think we can give her a second chance, or are Kris and I the only ones who have seen that."
We all stared blankly at Rob, probably the same question running through our heads. 'Why did he just stick up for Emily'? The stares stopped quickly, the others probably came to the assumption that he had stuck up for her because of what he had just said her crest of Darkness was gone, which was true that was probably one of the reasons, but I had a suspicion that there was some other reason he had stuck up for her, I mean if it was just for that one reason he wouldn't have gotten so angry about it and told us to shut up.
"Fine," Dan grumbled. "But if she shows even one hint of betrayal don't expect me to stick around for very long."
"Thank you," Emily said smugly satisfied she'd won the argument.
"Ok now that your argument has finally settled let's get going," Saberleomon said as his dome slid open and a ramp slid down his side. "It's time to board Armyleomon airlines."
Without too much hesitation, we all climbed up the ramp and into the dome, I took a seat in the front next to Kris. Keeping an eye on Emily making sure she didn't sit any where near us. I still didn't like that she was even coming with us. Maybe I was being paranoid, but still after all the things she had done I had a right to be.
Armyleomon slowly began to hover above the ground.
"Please keep your seatbelts fastened and your seats in the full upright position during takeoff," he said. "And if you feel the need to vomit, please don't, the floor was just waxed."
The engines on the wings activated and we thrust forward at an incredible speed, and thus began our World Tour.
---------------------------
There we go the intro is done, and in case your wondering this won't be like the World Tour from the series, the first couple Chapters will be, however this will slowly develop an actual plot, unlike the one from the series which ended kind of abruptly. Anyway…I'm hoping to have it up maybe…well I better not say because I might not be able to beat that deadline.
Stay tuned for Chapter 41: Mission One Italy
