Chapter 5

John returned to the Digital World many times after his first encounters with the digimon. Agumon and Gabumon showed John around the Digital World, bring him to towns and villages and introducing him to many friendly digimon. The more and more John learned about his new friends, the happier he became. One day, when the friends were making their way back home, they came across a small village left in ruins. The buildings were totally destroyed and still smoking. It looked as if there was a huge fire. Nothing was left standing.
"What happened here?" asked John.
"I don't know," answered Agumon.
"We've never been to this area before," added Gabumon.
They continued to make their way through the village, looking over what little was left of the village.
"Who could have done this?" asked John.
"There are evil digimon through out the Digital World. They don't care about anyone but them themselves, and destroy anything that may stands in their way," said Agumon.
"I don't like this place. Let's get out of here," said Gabumon.
"Ya," agreed John.
As they left the village and made their way back into the forest, they heard a dull growl come from behind them.
"What was that?" said John, turning around to look behind them. He saw nothing except for a rustle in a small grove of trees.
Another growl came from in front of them, louder than the other. John turned towards the noise. Again, he saw nothing.
"What's going on?" yelled John.
Suddenly, John heard two loud crashes come towards them. Agumon and Gabumon each turned towards one of the noises, keeping John between them.
"Stay behind us," said Agumon.
"We'll protect you," said Gabumon.
Suddenly, two monstrous creatures came out of the forest, coming straight for them. They looked like dinosaurs, with red skin and razor sharp claws and teeth.
"What are those things?" asked John.
"Their Tyranomon," answered Agumon.
"And they don't look happy," said Gabumon.
Both of the creatures ran towards Agumon and Gabumon, ready to attack. Agumon and Gabumon both jumped towards the Tyranomon, trying to stop them from getting to John. One of the Tyranomon swatted Agumon to one side. He was flung towards a tree, and smashed into it. Gabumon attacked the other Tyranomon head on. "Blue Blaster!!" The Tyranomon dodged the attack and retaliated with its own. "Blaze Blast!!" The attack hit head on. Gabumon was thrown back.

The Tyranomon now turned towards John. "Agumon!! Gabumon!! Get up!!" called John.
"We can't! We're too weak!" yelled Agumon.
"Run for it!" yelled Gabumon.
"But, I can't leave you guys!!" yelled John, as the Tyranomon drew closer.
"We'll catch up to you. Now GO!!!!" yelled Agumon.
John turned to run, but stopped. He ran back to his friends, grabbed them, and tried to run back into the forest. They were stopped by one of the Tyranomon. They turned to run the other way but were stopped by the other Tyranomon.
They were trapped. John looked frantically for a way out, but to no avail. "What are we going to do?" John thought to himself. He had no idea. All he knew was that he had to protect Agumon and Gabumon, just like they had done for him. He ran to a small grove of trees and placed them behind one of them.

"What are you doing?" asked Agumon. John didn't answer. He quickly ran over to one of the trees. There was a small pile of rocks behind it. He grabbed an armful of them, and started to throw them at the Tyranomon. The Tyranomon turned towards him, away from Agumon and Gabumon and turned their sights on John, their eyes filled with rage. They started to make their way towards him.
"John, no!!" cried Gabumon, "Don't do it!!"
John didn't stop. He continued throwing the rocks. That was all he could do to save his friends. But this only angered the Tyranomon even more. "Blaze Blast!!" A fireball flew out of on of the Tyranomons' mouth and flew towards John. "Look out!!" cried Agumon, trying to get up.
"No!!" cried John, frozen in fear, the fireball just a few feet away.
Suddenly, John's digivice began to glow a familiar glow. Agumon and Gabumon climbed to their feet. "We've got to stop them!" yelled Gabumon.
"Right!" seconded Agumon. Both digimon jumped towards the Tyranomon. Their bodies began to glow.
"Agumon..."
"Gabumon..."
"Digivolved to... Greymon!! Garurumon!!"

Suddenly, were Agumon and Gabumon once stood, there were now two monstrous creatures. One looked like a T-rex with horns, and the other looked like a huge wolf. The T-rex jumped towards John, shielding him from the fireball. The wolf jumped onto one of the Tyranomon, pushing it into the forest.
"Are you OK?" asked the T-rex.
"Yaaa.." answered John, trembling in fear.
The T-rex turned towards the remaining Tyranomon, and charged it head-on. The Tyranomon grabbed the T-rex's horns and threw to the side. It crashed into a tree, stunned. Just then, the wolf flew out of the forest and landed near the T-rex. The other Tyranomon came out the forest, running after it.

"Get up!! You can do it!!" yelled John. They rose to their feet, ready to fight. The t-rex charged at one of the Tyranomon. He caught it right in the chest. The Tyranomon was flung back, hitting the ground hard. The wolf tackled the other Tyranomon. As it fell to the ground, the wolf jumped back, landing right next to the t-rex. The two looked at each other, nodded, and turned back to the Tyranomon. "Nova Blast!!" A monstrous fireball flew out of the t-rex's mouth, aimed towards the Tyranomon. " Howling Blaster!!" A blue flame leaped from the wolf's mouth, shooting towards the Tyranomon. As the attacks hit, a huge explosion erupted.

As the smoke cleared, all that John could see were the t-rex and the wolf. They turned towards John and started to walk towards him. When John saw this, he became frightened. He tried to run away, but his legs wouldn't move. The creatures grew closer and closer.
"Please, don't hurt me!!" cried John.
"Why would we hurt you John?" asked the t-rex.
"Ya, after we just saved your life? What kind of gratitude is that?" asked the wolf.
"How do you know my name?"
"How do you think? We're your digimon!!" answered the t-rex.
"Hu, what do you mean..." Suddenly the creatures started to glow, and began to shrink. As the glow dimmed, where the t-rex and wolf once stood, now stood Agumon and Gabumon.
"You're OK! What happened? You mean you guys were those huge creatures?" asked John.
"Yep," answered Gabumon, "I digivolved to Greymon."
"And I digivolved to Garurumon" answered Gabumon.
"We digivolved to save you," said Agumon.
"That's why my digivice activated," John whispered to himself. "Well, are you guys all right?"
"We're fine," answered Agumon. Just then, John heard a low growl. Gabumon grabbed his stomach.
"Well, maybe just a little hungry."
John let out a chuckle. "Well, when we get home, I'll get you guys all the food you can eat."
"All right!! Lets go!!" said Agumon and Gabumon in unison, running into the forest, leaving John alone in the clearing. As John was about to follow them, he stopped short. He had the feeling that he was being watched. He turned around, but saw nothing.
Gabumon ran back to the clearing. "Hey John, are you coming?" called Gabumon.
"Ya, I coming!" As John started to make his way out of the clearing, he looked over his shoulder one last time. But all he saw was the slight movement of a tree branch.

The Shadow watched from behind a small grove of trees. "How could this happen? His digimon now have the ability to digivolve even father. This is what happens when I leave the job incompetent fools like those Tyranomon. I have to take matters into my own hands." As the Shadow turned towards the forest, it took out a small, black object. Suddenly, an Agumon and Gabumon appeared on either side of it, both shrouded in darkness. All that could be seen were their glowing red eyes. The Shadow turned to both the Agumon and Gabumon. "Let us put a stop to that pesky Digiprotector." As the three walked deep into the forest, the Shadow let out a deep, evil laugh.

Is this great or what?!?!? As always, please R&R!!! The next chapter will be up soon.
