Digimon: Elementals
By: ArtikGato
Disclaimer: For the minuscule portion of you who are BRAINDEAD IDIOTS, I DON'T own Digimon. Not that I wouldn't like to, but I don't Toei Animation, Saban, Fox Kids, and those Japanese people own Digimon, not me. There are lots of Digimon that I've created for the sole purpose of putting them in this story, so if you see a name you don't recognize, it's probably one of my creations. There will be a list at the end of the fic, and in the Author's Note at the beginning of every chapter, I'll put the names of my creations for that particular chapter, as well as the origin of some Digimon you may not recognize.
Author's Note: Comments, suggestions, and CONSTRUCTIVE criticism welcome. Flames will be answered by a multitude of things from my army of faithful and loyal (and powerful) Digimon. I didn't create any new Digimon for this chapter, although Tinmon is from Digimon World. OK, enjoy the story!
Chapter Sixteen: Tecno At Night
A Tankmon patrolled the moonlit streets of Tecno. It rounded a corner, and passed by an open sewer plate. Below, Randy watched as the Tankmon rolled around another corner, and out of sight.
"Ok guys it's now or never," Randy said, and pulled himself up and out of the sewer, followed by Flamemon. He stood up, and darted into the shadows of a nearby building. Voltomon, Floramon, Syakomon, Tapirmon and Sparrowmon followed. I stood up, jumped, and grabbed onto the ladder, and was soon up, on the moonlit street, and then over by Voltomon and the others. Nick, April, Wendy and Will followed. I pulled Numemon's map out of my backpack.
"Ok, since only three of us Digimon can fly, we're going to have to each carry two passengers," Sparrowmon said to Voltomon and Tapirmon.
"We can handle it," Tapirmon replied.
"Good, then going by air, the fastest way to the Robot Shop without being detected is by flying along the sides of buildings, in the shadows. We should take this street, and then switch to this one, and finally, we'll cross over to this street, and end up at the Robot Shop," I said, pointing to the map. Sparrowmon, Voltomon, and Tapirmon nodded. The others nodded in approval.
"Ok, let's get going then, the sooner we get the motor oil, the sooner we can free Mamemon," April said.
"Right!" the rest of us replied.
The Tankmon turned around another corner, and rounded another corner. He looked around, puzzled.
"Huh, I could've sworn I heard voices coming from over this way," the Tankmon said, and continued on his patrol. Above, Shockmon, Pyliomon and Falcomon hovered in the air, hidden in the shadows of a building. We looked on as the Tankmon rolled away.
"So far so good, now let's get to the Robot Shop," Randy, who was riding with Will and Flamemon on Pyliomon, said. April and Floramon were riding with Wendy on Falcomon, and Nick and Syakomon were riding on Shockmon with me. The three Champion Digimon started off in the direction of the Robot House, swiftly and silently. We soon came to an intersection.
"Ok, we've got to do this quickly or we'll be spotted," Nick said.
"Right," Shockmon, Falcomon and Pyliomon replied. We checked for any guards, and crossed over to another street, covered in shadows.
"Huh?" a Mechanorimon asked, and turned around.
"What is it?" another Mechanorimon asked.
"I think I just saw something over there," the first Mechanorimon said, and pointed to where we were just flying. The other Mechanorimon looked.
"There's nothing over there! I think your circuits are malfunctioning," the second Mechanorimon said.
"There's the Robot House!" I exclaimed when we crossed over to the narrow alleyway, which led to the Robot Shop.
"Great, now let's get the motor oil!" Will replied.
"Intruder, Destroy!" came from behind us. We turned around, and spotted a Guardromon at entrance to the alley.
"We've been spotted!" Wendy exclaimed.
"Quick, we have to stop him before he calls for reinforcements!" Randy exclaimed. Behind the Guardromon, three Tankmon and a Mechanorimon rolled up.
"Too late," Nick replied. Shockmon, Pyliomon and Falcomon swooped to the ground, and the six of us and the remaining Rookie Digimon jumped off and landed on the street. Floramon, Syakomon and Flamemon jumped forward.
"Floramon Digivolve to... Pansymon!"
"Syakomon Digivolve to... Marinedramon!"
"Flamemon Digivolve to... Meramon!"
"We'll hold them off, you guys go and get the motor oil," Meramon said, and jumped forward to attack.
"Careful, don't destroy them!" I called, and we ran into the Robot Shop.
"It's too dark in here, I can't see a thing!" April exclaimed, as we ran in.
"I think I found a light switch," Will said, and flipped a switch. The lights blinked on, leaving us staring at a horde of gear-looking Digimon and robots.
"Uh oh..." Randy said. The gear Digimon looked at us, and one of them flew forward and straight up to me.
"Uh..." I asked, puzzled. Why weren't they attacking, they were in Toranmon's army, right?
"Welcome to Robot Shop," the gear Digimon said.
"What's going on?" April asked.
"We are the Hagurumon and Tinmon. We live in the Robot Shop," the gear Digimon replied. I got out the computer to look them up.
"I don't get it, why aren't you attacking us?" Randy replied.
"We aren't under the control of Toranmon. Somehow, I found a way to bypass the program Toranmon is using to control the other Digimon in the city. I figured out how to change back my friends the Hagurumon and Tinmon by using a computer. We've been hiding out here in the Robot Shop ever since," the Hagurumon replied.
"How did you free your friends from Toranmon's control?" Nick asked.
"I used a computer, and triggered a wave of Digicode. The Digicode sent a message to their circuit boards, and changed them back," Hagurumon explained. I typed a little, and brought up Hagurumon's profile.
"Hagurumon, a Rookie level gear Digimon with a metal skin and an attack called Gear Crusher," I said.
"How do you know that?" Hagurumon asked.
"It's right here on my computer," I said, showing him the screen.
"Interesting," Hagurumon replied.
"Hey, I bet you could show us how to trigger Digicode on the fusion computer!" April suggested, snapping her finger.
"Let's see," Hagurumon said, and a wire snaked out of his back and plugged up to the computer. Hagurumon searched through the files on the computer.
"I can bring up the Digicode and create it on here, but I can't send it out from here. I'm going to need something else, a transmitter." Hagurumon said, after a little while.
"A transmitter, huh?" I asked.
"Too bad, if we had a cell phone, we might be able to use that as a transmitter for the Digicode," Nick commented.
"Wait, we do have a cell phone!" Wendy exclaimed, and pulled out her phone.
"Great!" I exclaimed.
"All we need is some batteries, and we can turn the fusion computer into a Digicode factory!" Nick exclaimed. Suddenly, something slammed into the wall of the Robot Shop.
"Oh no!" Will exclaimed.
"This will have to wait for later, right now we need some motor oil, fast," April said, turning to the Hagurumon.
"Right," Hagurumon said, and turned to a Tinmon, who rolled to the back of the Robot Shop. He picked up a container, and rolled up to April.
"Thanks," she said.
"May I ask what for?" Hagurumon asked.
"We need it to cure Mamemon, I believe he used to rule here," I said, as Hagurumon disconnected from the computer.
"King Mamemon?! You'd better get going!" Hagurumon exclaimed.
"We'll be back!" I exclaimed, closing the Fusion Computer, and running out with the others. We dashed outside, and found the Digimon in battle with six or seven Tankmon, four Mechanorimon, and a dozen Guardromon.
"Oh no!" Randy exclaimed.
"More of Toranmon's army will be here any minute!" Falcomon shouted down to us from the air.
"We've got to get this motor oil to Mamemon as fast as we can," I said, trying to formulate a plan. April, who still had the motor oil turned to Will.
"Will, you and Pyliomon take the oil to Mamemon," she said, handing the motor oil to Will.
"Huh?" we asked.
"Why me?" Will asked.
"April's right, we'll hold off Toranmon's army while you guys get the motor oil to Mamemon," Nick said.
"Wait a minute..." Will said.
"You guys are the only ones who can make it, we're counting on you!" I exclaimed, and he nodded.
"Pyliomon!" Will yelled up to his Digimon.
"Need a ride?" Pyliomon asked, flying down to him. Will hopped on his back, and Pyliomon took off. Toranmon's army saw them, and turned to fire at them.
"I don't think so!" Meramon, Shockmon, Pansymon, Falcomon and Marinedramon exclaimed, and blasted them with their attacks, knocking them down, but only for a second. They turned back around, and started to fire at us again.
"What are we going to do?" I asked.
"We could try disabling the army," April said.
"Worth a try," Nick said, and was about to yell the plan to Marinedramon, when suddenly, Toranmon, flanked by two Hagurumon, rounded a corner.
"Toranmon!" we exclaimed.
"If we disable this army, he'll only call for more Digimon!" I exclaimed. Toranmon got an evil glint in his eyes.
"You've done well in evading my army so far Digidestined, but you are trapped in Tecno now, and there's no where left to hide," Toranmon said.
"When we're done with you, Toranmon, you'll be a heap of scrap metal!" Randy, enraged, shouted.
"Oh really? I'd like to see you try to destroy me, take your best shot!" Toranmon exclaimed, and the army pointed their weapons at us, ready to attack at his word.
"You're not fighting fair, these Digimon have all been brainwashed!" I yelled.
"Oh, but if I was fighting fair I wouldn't be evil, now would I?" Toranmon asked.
"That's it, Roaring Flame!" Meramon shouted, and blasted a ball of fire at Toranmon. The Tankmon blasted it with their cannons, and almost hit Meramon.
"Attack now, destroy them!" Toranmon ordered. The army all attacked at once, blasting the Digimon. They fell to the ground, as Rookies.
"Oh no!" I exclaimed.
"They are way too powerful!" Randy said, grimacing. The army took a step in their direction, and aimed their cannons at the fallen Rookies.
"Smirk Bomb!" "Asteroid Smash!" two attacks collided with the army, stopping them. Pyliomon and a now healthy Mamemon flew into view, and swooshed past Toranmon. Pyliomon landed, and Will jumped off.
"Great timing, Will!" April congratulated.
"I knew we could count on you!" Wendy exclaimed. Toranmon narrowed his eyes, and glared at Mamemon.
"Hello Toranmon, long time, no see," Mamemon said, and glared back.
"Why aren't you dead?" Toranmon snarled.
"Because you can't get rid of one of the rulers of Tecno that easily," Mamemon replied.
"Former rulers," Toranmon corrected him, with a smirk.
"Not for long," Mamemon replied, and aimed one of his hands at Toranmon. Toranmon snarled.
"Attack!" he ordered. The army sent all their attacks straight for Mamemon, Pyliomon, the fallen Rookies, and us!
"Force Field!" Mamemon created a wall of energy, which blocked the attacks.
"All right!" we cheered. Toranmon glared at us.
"I'm out of here, you guys are on your own!" Toranmon said, and retreated, leaving the army against Mamemon and Pyliomon. We ran over to our now recovering Rookie Digimon, and scooped them up.
"I can't wait to get my hands on that Toranmon!" Voltomon exclaimed, angrily.
"You aren't the only one," I said, and looked at Mamemon. He was glaring at the spot where Toranmon had last been.
"Hey Mamemon, thanks for your help, but the army is too strong for just Pyliomon!" Will called up to him. He softened his stare, and nodded. He turned back to the army.
"Listen up, I am Mamemon. I was your leader!" Mamemon yelled.
"That won't do any good; their programs have been completely rewritten. They don't know who you are," April said. Mamemon looked back at them.
"What do we do then? I won't attack my own troops, even if they are under orders from Toranmon!" Mamemon replied, frantically.
"I've got an idea, do you know Digicode?" I asked.
"Yeah, why?" he asked.
"We met this Hagurumon who said that by using a modified wave of Digicode, we could rewrite their programs," I explained.
"I know Digicode, but not that well. Programming and stuff was always Metalmamemon's field," Mamemon answered.
"He may not be able to help you, but I can," a voice said from behind us. We turned, and saw Hagurumon floating out of the Robot House toward us.
"Hagurumon! Awesome!" Randy and Flamemon exclaimed.
"Master Mamemon, it's good to see you functional again," Hagurumon greeted him. Mamemon nodded.
"And it's good to see that your program didn't get rewritten," Mamemon replied. Hagurumon floated up, and connected to the Fusion Computer.
"All you need to do is connect the cell phone to the fusion computer. I'll take it from there," Hagurumon said.
"Ok," I said, and plugged the cell phone up. I stood back.
"Hurry, we can't keep blocking the attacks from Toranmon's army!" Pyliomon exclaimed. Hagurumon scrolled through the computer's systems and logged onto the Digicode program. He entered a few strange characters into the program, and started up the wave of Digicode. Pyliomon and Mamemon moved aside, and a wave of energy pulsated from the cell phone, and passed over Toranmon's army. A red, flashing "WARNING" box appeared on the screen.
"Huh?" we asked. Hagurumon grunted in frustration.
"Toranmon has somehow included an anti-rewrite code in their programs. I can't change them back!" Hagurumon said.
"What now?" Floramon asked. Hagurumon entered a few more characters into the computer.
"What are you doing?" Nick asked.
"If I can't change them back now, I may be able to change them back later with the right equipment. Until then, I'll have to disable them," Hagurumon explained, and triggered another wave of Digicode. The army twitched, and dropped to the ground, unconscious.
"Nice," Voltomon said. Pyliomon glowed, and reverted to Tapirmon.
Next Chapter: Mamemon and the Element Digidestined decide to take matters into their own hands, and attack Tecno Palace, Toranmon's stronghold. They seem to be doing well, until Toranmon calls for a one-on-one showdown with Mamemon!
