Ch.9: A Surprise Attack
Jeri, Leomon, Henry, Rapidmon, Kazu, and Andromon were lying on the ground. They were unconscious. Henry started to twitch. He was getting up.
"What happened? The last thing I remember was being sucked up by a digital stream, then all the rest is just a blank." Henry said, "Huh? Rapidmon, wake up!"
"What? Who's that?" Rapidmon asked.
"It's me, Henry."
"Oh, it's you Henry. I thought I had gone to the big angelic Digital World in the sky."
"You're far from it." Henry said, "Kazu, Jeri, wake up. Andromon and Leomon, you two wake up as well."
"Huh? Where are Ogremon and BlackJeri?" Andromon asked.
"I guess they made a break for it after we were transported here, but I don't know where here is." Henry said.
"Maybe we should try to find the others." Jeri suggested.
Everyone else shook their heads yes. They started their long walk through the forest, but from a far distance away, further within the forest, up high in a tree, was a black figure watching their every move. They pushed aside branches; they walked passed trees, and continued their search for the rest of the tamers, but no luck.
"I have an idea!" Kazu said, "Why don't we track onto the other's digivice signals like Ryo showed us?"
"That's a great idea Kazu." Andromon said.
"Yes, I'm absolutely the greatest. Sometimes I impress myself." Kazu said.
"Oh brother." Henry said.
After a whole half an hour of walking and waiting for the digivices to track the other digivices and the other tamers, Kazu was starting to think it was a horrible idea.
"Hey Henry, why don't you and Rapidmon get a view from the sky and find out where we are." Jeri suggested.
"I guess that would be a great idea." Henry said.
Henry got on Rapidmon and they took to the sky. They flew higher than the trees and looked around. Then someone pounced on them and they fell back down into the forest.
"Henry, Rapidmon!" Jeri said.
The two tamers and their two digimon ran to where Henry and Rapidmon crashed.
"What happened?" Rapidmon asked.
"I'm what happened!" The figure said.
Henry held out his digivice to get information on the digimon in front of them.
"Skullsatamon, a virus type digimon! He has super speed and huge power, which makes him almost as strong as a mega!"
"No matter how strong you are you'll lose!" Rapidmon said, "Rapid Fire!"
Rapidmon's two missiles shot from his two cannons, but Skullsatamon used his speed and got out of the way. The missiles exploded on the trees and caused fire to burn on the wood.
"Where are you, you slippery quick digimon!?" Rapidmon demanded.
Rapidmon looked around, but saw nothing. A quick figure moved passed him, but he didn't see him in time. Then the figure moved behind him, above him, beside him, and all around him in every direction. Rapidmon shot his "Rapid Fire" all over the place. The trees were falling down and burning with a fire fury. The figure wasn't moving thing time, but Rapidmon still couldn't see him.
"Where are you? Show yourself!" Rapidmon demanded.
"I'm right here!" Skullsatamon yelled.
"Rapidmon, behind you!" Henry yelled.
"Huh?" Rapidmon asked.
Rapidmon turned around, but by the time he did, Skullsatamon used his "Nail Bone" on him, Rapidmon de-digivolved to Terriermon and fell on the ground.
"Terriermon!" Henry said.
"Now it's your turn!"
Skullsatamon jumped into the air and yelled, "Nail Bone!" His staff was about to meet Henry and kill him, when someone yelled, "Fist Of The Beast King!" The lion-like attack hit Skullsatamon in the back, but barely hurt him.
"Leave them alone! Deal with us!" Andromon said.
"Gladly." Skullsatamon replied.
The quick-skeleton digimon quickly started attacking Leomon and Andromon with his staff. They were no match, he was just too fast for them to attack.
"Terriermon…." Henry said, "Wake up, please."
Henry was about to start crying when Terriermon started moving his body a little.
"Henry…." Terriermon said in a weak voice, "I'm okay. Let's show this guy what teamwork can do."
Terriermon was barely able to stand, but he managed. Henry took out his D-arc. The words, BIO-MERGE DIGIVOLUTION appeared.
"Bio-merge activate!"
Henry's digivice had a circular beam shoot from him and all his clothes were gone.
"Terriermon, bio-merge to…. MegaGargomon!"
Henry's body became one with Terriermon's. A picture showed of Gargomon, Rapidmon, and then MegaGargomon's face. The mega had a very skinny body, then the armor started to hook on. Then he stood high with all his armor on. Skullsatamon noticed him after beating up the others.
"So, you went to mega, but you still don't stand a chance!" Skullsatamon yelled.
The skeleton digimon lunged forward with his fast speed. MegaGargomon opened up his armor and used his "Mega Barrage". All the missiles were going towards Skullsatamon, but he jumped over a few of them, destroyed some of them with his staff, ducked under some of them, and quickly moved passed the rest of them.
"Oh no!" MegaGargomon said, "Henry, he dodged the missiles! Now what do we do?"
"We'll use our fighting skills." Henry replied within the sphere.
Skullsatamon was coming for MegaGargomon, but the mega digimon was ready.
"Here I come!" Skullsatamon yelled.
MegaGargomon tried to punch, kick, and karate chop Skullsatamon, but he moved out of the way easily. Then MegaGargomon was hit in the back by Skullsatamon's staff.
"Ahhhhhhh!" MegaGargomon and Henry cried out.
MegaGargomon faced Skullsatamon and used his "Gargo Missiles". The two huge missiles turned from a mad face to a happy face and they exploded, pushing Skullsatamon back, but not hurting him.
"Terriermon, we have to run now."
"What?! Why Henry?"
"He has super speed, and with that speed he's too strong for us. Let's take the others and fly high into the sky."
"Oh, okay."
MegaGargomon picked up Jeri, Leomon, Kazu, and Andromon and flew upwards. They were rising higher and higher to the sky until they got above the clouds.
"We're safe now." MegaGargomon said.
"No you're not!" A figure said.
Skullsatamon had bat-like wings on his back.
"Skullsatamon!? But you can't fly!" Leomon explained.
"Oh, yes I can!" The skeleton digimon replied, "Nail Bone!"
Skullsatamon's staff hit into MegaGargomon's back and he de-digivolved. Everyone was falling.
"Ahhhh!" Kazu yelled, "I don't want to die! I'm too cool to die! Help!"
"Jeri, get on my back." Leomon said.
Jeri did as her digimon partner told her.
"Henry, this isn't good."
"I know Terriermon, but we're both too tired to complain or digivolve to save all our lives."
"I don't need to digivolve. I just need some wings."
"That's it!" Henry said.
Henry took out a card from his deck.
"Digi-modify! Hyper wing activate!"
Terriermon got wings and he got hold of Henry's hand.
"Get hold of everyone else as well." Henry said.
Terriermon did get hold of everyone else's hands and he tried pulling up.
"Henry, there's a problem!"
"What is it?"
"I'm too small of a flying creature to pull up with all your guy's weight."
"Oh great! I'm still going to die!" Kazu said.
"No, we're not going to die in a battle. Not now, not ever!" Henry said, "Wait, I've got another idea!"
Henry took out another card.
"Digi-modify! Hyper Speed activate!"
Terriermon's wings started flapping harder and faster than ever, making them slow down, but they were still falling at a fast rate.
"Come on Terriermon, you can do it." Leomon said.
"We believe in you." Andromon said.
"Come on Terriermon, you can do it, I know you can." Jeri said.
"Terriermon, you better start slowing us down or we're going to die!" Kazu yelled.
"Thanks for the great confidence in me Kazu." Terriermon said.
"Come on Terriermon, we all know you can do it." Henry said.
"Ahhhhhhhh!" Terriermon yelled, "I'm trying!"
The whole group's dropping speed went down dramatically.
"Terriermon, you're doing it!" Henry said, "Just a little more."
"I'm trying Henry, but it's very difficult."
The group was fully slowed down and Terriermon was slowly flying forward.
"You did it Terriermon, you did it!" Jeri said.
"I know." Terriermon said, "Was there any doubt in your mind?"
"Nope, not at all." Jeri replied.
"Well I sure had a lot of doubt." Kazu said, "I can't believe I had to put my life in your hands!"
"Hey!" Terriermon said, "I saved you didn't I?!"
"Yeah, but you cut it real close."
"You thought you were save, but you're not!" Skullsatamon yelled, "Nail Bone!"
Skullsatamon's attack hit Terriermon and his wings disappeared. Everyone started falling.
"Ahhhhhh!" Everyone yelled.
"I can't die like this. I don't want to die like this." Jeri said.
"Jeri, we're not going to die." Leomon said.
Henry, Kazu, Jeri, Terriermon, Andromon, and Leomon are all falling to their deaths, will anyone be able to save them?! And what will they do about Skullsatamon?! Find out next time on Digimon Digital Monsters!
