"Are you sure this is a good idea?"
"No, but I'm open to suggestions." Gabumon looked at Biyomon flying beside him, barely visible in the moonlight. He drew his fist back and jammed his claws into the side of Gatomon's lair again. This was a bad idea. Here they where, two rookie digimon, sneaking into Gatomon's lair that had who knows how many evil digimon in it. But they knew that some, if not all, of their friends where being held prisoner, and they had to rescue them.
"Well I was just asking." Biyomon replied.
"Just keep an eye out." Gabumon hastily replied. He knew he shouldn't have snapped, but he still was angry with her. He knew he had no right. He knew the only reason she removed his pelt was to help. He knew he even had sex with her. But still he knew deep down, he still resented her for that indecency. She was the only person who knew what lied beneath his fur, and that gnawed at him. He punctuated the point by jabbing his claws in the rock again, pulling himself up next to a window.
"Your plan is working perfectly, master."
Gabumon motioned Biyomon to be quiet and to come close. He peered over the bottom of the window, and saw Gatomon kneeling to a figure, but they could only see the shadow from their vantage point.
The shadowed figure nodded. "Thank you my loyal servant. Why should it not work?"
"It was brilliant, to say the least." Gatomon bowed lower. "Your fake death, my feigned friendship. Everything went according to plan. The digidestined destroyed the dark masters as you predicted. When Piedmon was destroyed, it allowed me to trick them into acquiring their digivices. Even the fact you had them believe I was the mastermind behind the entire operation was a stroke of genius. The digidestined won't destroy me even after all I've done to them." She held up her paw, and Gabumon was surprised when he saw that it was all black. "You should have seen the look on Magnangemon's face when he amputated my paw by accident. I don't think that even if he unintentionally cut off TK's hand he would have been more shocked. He even allowed himself to be captured; he was so devastated. They would have no trouble deleting you on the other hand." Gatomon smirked at the pun. "Your plan is brilliant."
"Then explain to me why there are still digidestined and some of their digimon on the loose?" The figure asked.
Biyomon strained to hear, they where talking so quiet. "I know that voice, I just can't place it." Gabumon listened to, but the voice didn't sound familiar to him.
"It was Gennai." Gatomon sneered. "He used a hide file program to allow the digidestined to escape. But not to worry, my forces are tracking down the last few escapees as we speak."
The figure sighed. "Gennai, if it was not for him and his allies, there would not even be any digidestined. I should have deleted him years ago. Ah well. Anyway, he is not the important one. I have analyzed the prophecy you acquired from Tai. From what I gather, we will need the digimon Gabumon for my plans to work."
Biyomon and Gabumon looked at one another. Gabumon mouthed the question "Me?" to Biyomon. He then turned his attention towards the conversation in the room again, all the while wondering why Gatomon needed him?
Gatomon continued speaking. "He will be caught shortly. It is only a matter of time. Without Matt or their digivice, he is no threat."
"Good, you are a good servant." The figure stepped into view, so Biyomon and Gabumon received a clear view.
"You!" Biyomon chirped out involuntarily when she recognized who it was. Gabumon grimaced, hoping that no one heard.
Gatomon turned towards the window. Her master just gestured, and a flurry of bats appeared out of nowhere, knocking Gabumon off the side of the wall.
Gabumon tumbled towards the ground, several hundred meters below. He saw his life pass before his eyes, shortly before his decent was abruptly halted. "Gotcha!" Biyomon yelled, grasping Gabumon firmly between her talons. She was clearing straining in order to keep aloft. Gabumon was pretty heavy for her to lift, which is why he was climbing the side of the castle instead of her flying him up. Gabumon was about to thank her, but remembered she was the one who alerted their presence in the first place.
Biyomon began to descend slowly, but suddenly a scream came from the skies above. Biyomon looked up just in time to see Gatomon jump out of the window and land on her back hard. Biyomon let out a large whumph sound as Gatomon let the air out of her. Still, Biyomon held on tightly to Gabumon as she plummeted to the ground, with Gatomon still on her back. They all hit the ground roughly, Biyomon taking the brunt of the fall. Gatomon and Gabumon rolled away and jumped to their respective feet. Biyomon struggled to hers, but was knocked down again quickly from a roundhouse kick courtesy of Gatomon, sending her sprawling several feet away.
Turning her attention back to Gabumon she smiled. "Gabumon, you saved me the trouble of hunting you down. How very considerate of you."
Gabumon growled. "How could you be working for something like that?"
Gatomon smiled. "An excellent health plan. I'm allowed to live as long as I follow orders. One of the orders being to capture you."
"I don't think so." Gabumon opened his mouth wide. "Blue Blaster!" A stream of energy blazed from his mouth, which Gatomon easily side stepped. "Blue Blaster!" Another blast, but this time Gatomon merely held out her left hand, and the beam was dispersed against the metallic paw.
"Try again?" Gatomon coyly asked.
Gabumon new she was much faster then he was, but he remembered a trick he learned when he attacked Biyomon. "Blue Blaster!" He shouted again. This time, he aimed at the ground a few feet in front of her. A spray of dirt spread in a wide arc over Gatomon, blinding her. Gabumon smiled and charged forward, tackling the stunned Gatomon and pinning her to the ground. He cuffed her twice across the face quickly. Just before his third strike, Gatomon raised her left paw and grabbed his forehead. Her paw glowed bright blue for a second, sending a jolt of electricity through Gabumon. Gabumon groaned in pain as the neuro paralyzer took effect.
Gatomon quickly turned over, pinning the dizzy Gabumon to the ground. "I don't know why you digimon think you can take me in your rookie forms. You need a bit of an attitude adjustment." A black gear popped from her metallic glove. "I can help you with that." And plunged the gear into his chest. Gabumon grunted as the device worked its way into his stomach.
"Leave him alone!" Biyomon wrapped her wings around Gatomon. The cat tossed her off easily, since Biyomon was already weakened. Biyomon stumbled away, staying unsteadily on her feet. "How could you work for that creature? You where almost destroyed all long with the rest of us, remember?"
Gatomon laughed, wiping a tiny drop of blood from her lips. "I was never in any danger, it was all an act on my part. I played the part quite well, didn't I?" She sighed a long fake sigh. "Too bad you and Gabumon had to discover my little secret. Fortunately for Gabumon, we need him for our plans. He is indispensable. You..." Gatomon trailed off. With lightning speed, she lunged forward. The claws on her prosthetic hand doubled in length almost instantly. Biyomon could barely stand up, let alone dodge. Gatomon's razor sharp claws plunged into her chest. Biyomon eyes flew wide open as she stared at Gatomon's arm buried up to her elbow in her feathers. She looked up at Gatomon, who smiled as she finished her sentence. "Are not."
Biyomon's form broke up in to atoms and began flying to the sky. Gatomon looked up and saw the pink molecules spread to the wind. She retracted her claws to their normal length with a loud shikt. "A shame really, but we couldn't have you spreading my little secret around."
"Serves the little bitch right." Gatomon noticed for the first time that the Gabumon had gotten up beside her.
Gatomon was taken aback. "I'm must admit I'm surprised. Usually the black gear just makes you indifferent towards your friends, but you seem to genuinely hate her, at least deep down."
Gabumon snorted towards the skies as the last traces of Biyomon disappeared. "That bitch took of my pelt"
"Well now we have to go meet someone." Gatomon said as they walked towards her lair.

Gatomon walked into her chambers, only this time her chamber chair was occupied. "Did you capture the Gabumon?"
Gatomon motioned towards Gabumon behind her. "He's right here."
"And what about the bird?"
Gatomon snapped her claws together once. "What bird?"
"Good, my little servant." The cloaked figure smiled. "Now finishing hunting down the remaining digidestined." Gatomon bowed once and ran out of the room and into the forest, in the direction she last saw Kari.
"And who might you be?" Gabumon asked, not really interested.
"I'm the true master of all digimon." A hand reached down and grabbed Gabumon, lifting him off the ground. "And you're going to make me the most powerful digimon in both worlds."
