Chapter 6: The Shadow Leers
A flash of violet light followed by a shockwave marked the activation of another Sternenheimat. Davis stared at the disappearing Digiports then turned towards Gray.
"Shall we go?" He asked. Gray was for it, but Veemon wasn't. He flopped down on the ground and groaned.
"What's wrong?" Davis asked. Veemon responded by groaning.
"Hungry?" Gray inquired. Another groan.
"Hot?" Davis continued. Groan. He turned to Gray.
"OK, he's hungry and hot. We could do with a rest anyway, so did you see anything."
"I saw an oasis back there. It should be in walking distance." Gray replied. Davis picked up Veemon and cradled him in his arms.
"Shall we go?" Davis asked. Gray smirked and nodded. They walked for about five minutes before they got to the Oasis. Davis splashed some water in his face as Veemon devoured everything in sight. Grey took a bite out of a pear and smiled contentedly. He and Davis sat down at the edge of the crystal clear water and talked.
"I can't believe people actually thought they were going to use this place for a vacation or anything like that. The Digital World isn't some vacation resort or anything of the sort." Gray criticized people's ideas of what the Digital World is. Davis nodded but didn't say anything. It reminded his of his friends.his used to be friends. Davis couldn't help wonder where his friends were right now.
"Alright here's the deal, even though Davis used to be our friend that can't stop us from hitting him with full force. He's being manipulated by that Shatora person. We go in, take Davis by force if necessary to a secluded place, and we get him to tell us what's going on. I don't care if he doesn't want to talk, he's going to." Tai laid out the situation to the other Digidestined. Mimi had used a Digiport in America and Joe was currently riding Ikkakumon over to Russia to use a Digiport there.
"A very good plan, with only one tiny little flaw. That Wolcramon beat every one of our Digimon single handedly! We don't stand a chance against it." Matt shot at Tai.
"We have Weregarurumon, Wargreymon, Aquillamon, and Garudamon hold it off while the others go and get Davis." Tai replied. The other Digidestined agreed to it, but Kari simply stared at her feet the whole time. Tai noticed that Kari wasn't doing anything and held her back while the others set off and looked for Davis.
"What's wrong?" He asked her worriedly. She looked ready to cry.
"Kari?"
"IT'S ALL MY FAULT TAI, ALL MY FAULT!!!" Kari screamed. Tai looked surprised for a minute, but when he composed himself he asked,
"What are you talking about?" Kari was crying into his shoulder, but she managed to tell him what she had said to Davis. Tai looked shocked.
"You said THAT to him. I understand why he left." Tai said more to himself rather than to Kari.
"You see. It is my entirely fault he left. It's my fault he's doing this." Kari sobbed. Tai saw differently however.
"Davis may be mad at you because you told him that, but that doesn't give him a reason to shut the Digital World up. Look, when we get him you can talk to him and say your sorry right to his face." Kari brightened a little bit.
"Thanks Tai." She said.
"Anytime." He smiled.
The Digidestined had all split up in search of Davis. T.K rode on Pegasusmon heading down towards a desert. How dare he hurt Kari like that? When I find him, I'll get even with him for that. His thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a flash of light.
"T.K. I think one of those things was just activated again." Pegasusmon told him. The light had come from a canyon just to the left of their trajectory.
"Let's go." T.K. said harshly. They flew down into the rocky plateaus. Raidramon was running along the ground with Davis and Gray on his back, but he hadn't noticed the flying Digimon above him. T.K. E-mailed the others and then came in closer to Davis.
"STOP!" He shouted at Davis. He and Gray looked up and frowned.
"GO AWAY!" He yelled back. It was hard to hear since they were speeding along.
"STOP OR I'LL MAKE YOU STOP!" T.K. bellowed with anger. And Davis did stop. Pegasusmon flew past him about ten feet.
"BLUE THUNDER!" Raidramon fired a blast of cackling blue lightning that Pegasus barely dodged. Davis and Gray dismounted Raidramon, as T.K. did his Digimon. Pegasusmon retaliated by firing a hail of stars at Raidramon who dodged out of the way. Meanwhile, Davis went straight up to T.K. who fell back hard when he was pushed.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" He shouted at the Blonde Digidestined. T.K. narrowed his eyes then got up and tackled Davis. "I should ask you the same question!" T.K. shot back. "How could you hurt Kari like that? Don't you care about her at all?" Davis pushed him off. Gray was watching with bewilderment from the side. "Why don't you shut up 'oh great one'." Davis said mockingly. "You couldn't possibly understand that." They both got up.
"Try me." Sneered T.K.
"Fine." Davis was sick of everyone ignoring him and his feelings. "I saw you and Kari in the park with your lips on hers. Dammit, did you even care if I loved her? Did you even pay attention?" T.K. was surprised that the other said he 'loved' but figured it was just Davis exaggerating. They were now circling each other like they were in a boxing ring.
"She made her choice and it was me. You'll just have to accept that." T.K.'s blood was boiling.
"Hmm, let's see here, could you have at least told me that she chose you. No! You had to let me find out for myself." Davis shouted at his opponent.
"Well, I guess Kari is right. You are just a spoiled little brat!"
WHAM! Blood spattered onto the ground as Davis punched T.K., splitting his lip. T.K. hit the ground with tremendous force. The next second Davis was on top of him letting loose a flurry of punches into T.K.'s neck, chest, and stomach. Through the explosion of pain the blonde managed to raise his fist and hit Davis. His fist connected squarely on the Digidestined's nose. The punching stopped, and T.K. managed to get up and open his eyes. Davis had also just gotten up and was looking at the other with hatred. They both got up as Raidramon shot Pegasusmon out of the air with his Thunder Blast. At that exact moment Kari showed up and Nefertimon fired a beam at the wall to stop the two from fighting. Davis saw her and cursed loudly. Kari jumped off of the armor Digimon. She ran over to them yelling, "Wait Davis, don't leave!" At this, what was left of Davis's patience dissolved.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT FROM ME? I'M NOT GOING TO TELL YOU WHY I'M DOING THIS!" Davis shouted at the top of his lungs at the pair. T.K. probably would have launched himself at Davis, if his big brother hadn't shown up right then. The rest of the Digidestined were with him.
"Oh dear me, they're actually going to try and take him by force." Shatora watched the Digidestined dismount their partners and turn towards Davis. Pegasusmon and Raidramon had stopped fighting then. Pegasusmon joined his allies while Raidramon went to protect his partner. "Should I, or do you want to?" Shatora asked the other figure in the room he glanced at the girl, at the screen, and then finally back to Shatora. "Allow me." He smirked. Black energy gathered up around the boy, then faded away. He had disappeared.
"Davis, just tell us why you're doing this and we'll stop bothering you." Tai called to him. Davis was just about to answer when someone else spoke.
"Come now Davis. Tell them why you're doing this. You don't want to disappoint your friends. Or do you?" Everyone stopped dead. The voice sent shivers down their spines, and there was an odd echo to it, as if it were coming from the walls.
"What's the matter?" Said the voice mockingly. "Cat got your tongue?"
"Come out now." Tai shouted, but there was a quiver in his voice.
"I am out." Replied the voice.
"Where is he?" Whispered Ken in fear.
"Right here." Hissed the voice. This time it sounded material though.
Everyone turned, expecting to see some hulking figure. Instead, there was a boy with dark black hair and wicked black eyes staring at them. Everything about him was expressionless, except for his eyes. They danced with malice, and looking into them gave the impression that you were looking into a deep pit, in which an unknown evil lurked. There was absolute silence which remained until it was broken by.
"Hello Shade." Gray nodded. The boy smiled and looked at his addresser.
"Top of the morning to you." He smiled. It made most of the Digidestined flinch. They didn't know why, but he made them uneasy.
"Davis this is my.coordinator. I'm not sure what his real name is, but he's called Shade." Shade's dark eyes moved to Davis, who felt himself unnerved.
"But of course, I am only a servant of the Digital World like you. However, I think you should tell these lovely people about why you're doing what you are." It felt like the child's eyes were boring holes into his soul, making him dare not question what he was asking.
Davis turned towards the others and looked across their faces. Most of them looked petrified, but Davis scrounged up the courage to speak.
"This world," he began "is one of the most beautiful places ever. The colors, the sky, everything about it. I love it here. Soon vacationers and scientists will come here. They will destroy this world; rip it apart in order just to understand it. We are setting up this firewall, to protect this place, so only the chosen may enter.or leave." Davis finished, and saw that their faces were no longer frozen with fear.
Tai's was mingled with fury. He looked about ready to explode. Matt and Sora were both taking deep breaths not to start shouting. T.K. was looking like he was already for round two, Kari was looking depressed, and Izzy looked stern. The rest of them actually were looking half interested though. The first person to speak was Yolei.
"Davis, I actually agree with you." Everyone was staring at her.
"Yolei, you can't possibly b-" Began T.K. but he was cut short by the lavender haired girl.
"Can it T.K. Anyway what I was going to say is that I think this world shouldn't be dissected just for a scientist's curiosity." Izzy looked visibly offended by this. "And if you don't mind, I'd like to join you."
Davis was speechless for a second, but then he turned towards Shade and Gray. Shade had a victorious look on his face, and Gray was nodding.
"Sure." Davis said.
"I'd like to come too." People were even more surprised as Cody stepped up.
"Of course." Joy was coming into Davis's face.
"You can count me in."
"Me too." Joe and Mimi had just spoken up.
"I'm with you Davis." Ken walked over to him. By now there was a broad grin on the boy's face.
"You guys. You're real friends." Davis almost had a tear in his eye. "Don't forget us!" All the Digimon shouted. "Where you go, I go!"
"Excellent!" Cried Shade. "Now Gray will you please escort these loyal people to my base. I will be there shortly." Gray nodded and braced himself. Shade raised his fingers, and snapped them. Dark energy surrounded those with and including Davis. It covered them, and then faded away. They had disappeared.
"What the hell did you do?" Tai shouted with surprise. Shade didn't answer, that question, but told them, "Get out now." His voice had changed. It sounded like a demon was speaking in unison with him, and Dark energy began to surround his body.
"What?" Izzy sounded confused.
"Get out of this world, now! You've been.evicted. Either you leave now, or I'll make you leave!" The Digidestined were backing away, but Tai managed to summon up the courage to yell, "We're not leaving! You get out!" Shade sneered. "I think not. You're lucky this little problem isn't worthy of my personal attention." He turned towards the mountain side next to him.
"MEGIDRAMON!" He called. The mountain side shook. A few seconds later it exploded showering everything with rocks. The Digidestined had to duck and cover not to be crushed by the remains of the mountain.
Where the mountain used to be a Digimon was floating. It was huge and vicious looking, with a muscular red body. Its underbelly was white and in the center of its chest was a symbol that was four triangles, three touching a different point on the center triangle. It had shoulder pads with the same symbols. The massive red wings turned yellow at their bat like ends. There were no legs, but one long tail that ended in a bone arrow- head. On its head was the same symbol, and four horns that stuck out in the back. Probably the most terrifying thing about this Digimon was that it had completely yellow eyes that showed pure insanity. It roared sending out a terrible noise which made the Digidestined cover their ears.
"Megidramon, kill them!" Shade commanded the huge Digimon.
"This is impossible! The power of Owikawa should protect this place from evil Digimon." Izzy cried out. Shade laughed a completely mirthless laugh as Megidramon flew overhead.
"You mean that pathetic power that I sealed away. That couldn't restrain a dog, and as for those four Digimon Sovereign" He put mocking emphasis on the word "that fight was just as boring." He held up a ball of energy. Inside were the four Digimon Sovereign, who it seemed were being tortured somehow.
Megidramon prevented them from seeing any more because he landed right in front of them.
Shade disappeared, probably off to go with the others while Megidramon bared down menacingly on them. Tai took action.
"Sora, you and Garudamon get everyone to a safe place. Everyone else attack!" This plan didn't work however, because the very first thing the massive creature did was attack Garudamon.
"Crimson Stare!" It hissed. They were lucky that Garudamon wasn't holding anyone, because Megidramon's eyes turned red. A scarlet aura covered the bird Digimon, immobilizing her. Garudamon let out a scream a second before her foe wrapped its body around her forcing out wind.
"ATTACK!" Everyone yelled. The remaining Digimon charged in, intent on liberating their friend. Instead, Megidramon threw Garudamon at them, smashing into Megakabuterimon and Weregarurumon.
The battle continued in this fashion. Even the mighty Wargreymon couldn't hold a candle to the giant Digimon. Megidramon whipped his tail tearing Wargreymon's golden armor. It was plainly obvious that their enemy was growing tired of the fight. It brought it swiftly to an end by unleashing it's most powerful attack.
Shoving its hands into the rock Megidramon bellowed, "Terra Hazard!" The ground began to shake violently and giant cracks began to form in the rocks. The ground exploded showering rocks everywhere. The Digidestined fell into a large hole. Tai tired to grab Kari but a rock fell on his legs tearing him from her grip. The rain of rocks pounded down, and the Digidestined blacked out. Miles away, in an unknown base, Shade laughed delightedly.
A flash of violet light followed by a shockwave marked the activation of another Sternenheimat. Davis stared at the disappearing Digiports then turned towards Gray.
"Shall we go?" He asked. Gray was for it, but Veemon wasn't. He flopped down on the ground and groaned.
