Mimi really had very little idea of what was going on. This was unusually, because Mimi was known for keeping tabs of events and people, and it was rare that something really shocked her. But this was definitely something she hadn't expected.
Sora and Yamato where a few feet ahead of her, discussing some novel they had read recently. Behind her she could hear Koushiro and Jyou's footsteps as they brought up the rear. A taxi passed them, the three adults inside not noticing the group of children trudging along the sidewalk at five minutes to midnight.
"I think I see them." Yamato said softly, quickening his pace so that he was a few steps ahead of the rest of us. "Yep, that's them."
Sora laughed lightly. "Taichi's hair does kind of stand out, doesn't it."
Yamato grinned. "You could say that."
Mimi looked ahead and could just make out six figures standing right beside a green sign which, illuminated by a street lamp, read in bold, white letters: Highten View Terrace.
"Well, about time you all got here!" Eleven faces looked up...
...To see Daisuke standing ON TOP of the street lamp just above their heads.
"I was starting to think," Daisuke stepped lightly off of the street lamp and landed on the street bellow in a rush of wind, his jacket fluttering around him as he straightened up. "That you weren't going to show up at all. Ready to go?"
"I'm not going anywhere until you explain what's going on!" Miyako seemed to be the only one unaffected by Daisuke's more than strange appearance. The maroon haired boy grinned widened.
"I can't explain properly here. I have to show you."
Miyako's glare, if still possible, intensified.
Daisuke frowned suddenly, his grin fading. He turned, looking first this way and then that, before glancing up at the sky with worried eyes. After a few seconds of searching, he seemed to find something because he tensed, his hands tightening into fists.
"We're being watched." He cursed under his breath, before grabbing Ken's hand and dragging him, at the same time shooing the others, over to a darkened bus stop just a few feet away at the end of the street.
"Stay put!" He hissed, before turning and running back down the street and past the streetlamp.
WHAM! Out of nowhere, a huge, shining blue dragon appeared. It seemed to be almost human, although it was a good foot taller than any normal human was, and its skin was a vibrant shade of blue. Leathery wings sprouted from its back, and amidst a pile of deep blue hair, a curving blue and silver horn could be seen glittering in the moonlight, and it had a long, graceful tail.
"Exveemon, let's do this!" Daisuke's voice rang through the air as he stopped in the middle of the sidewalk, a few feet away from the dragon.
Out of the corner of his eye, Ken suddenly saw what Daisuke had sensed only a few seconds earlier. A huge, massive, birdlike human was rocketing down through the sky and headed straight for the blue dragon and Daisuke.
The boy seemed to know what was going on, because he whirled, glaring up at the bird-human as though looking for something. He could seem to find what he was looking for though, because his frown deepened and he let out a growl of frustration.
"It's a Wild One!" He cried after a moment, and as the bird came shooting down towards the street, Daisuke nodded and the dragon had leaped into the air, greeting the bird head on.
"Sonic Destroyer!"
"Vee Laser!"
The explosion that followed almost knocked the small group of people over. Daisuke glanced back as the shock wave ended, doing a quick headcount and breathing a silent sigh of relief when all eleven where still standing, intact and mostly unharmed, although obviously very shaken.
The battle quickly became Daisuke's focus again, as Exveemon took a nasty punch in the shoulder. He let out a hiss of frustration as he peered at the bird in the dim light, wishing fervently that the Parrotmon had chosen a different time to attack. Exveemon ducked a blast coming from his opponent's mouth and dealt out a nasty kick to the stomach. A glitter of black caused Daisuke to blink, before he let out a cry of fury. A black swirl covered the bird Digimon's ankle, as though someone had burned the flesh and feathers away from that small section, creating a ring around its foot.
"Exveemon! It's got a Tag! It's a Harbinger! Get rid of it now!"
Daisuke felt his anger swell as Exveemon prepared to attack again, this time not holding back anything. A Wild One never attacked unless provoked. He mentally scolded himself. Of COURSE it had to be tagged Tagged!
"Vee Laser!"
A silence swept the street as another shock wave shot past Daisuke's face making him squint to keep the dust out of his eyes. As the flutter of wind died down, he watched his partner land in the center of the street with a thump. The Parrotmon never stood a chance.
"Exveemon!" Daisuke's scowl was still in place as he strode out and into the empty street. "Come on, I want to get out of here NOW before we're attacked again."
The Digimon nodded, and Daisuke could tell that his partner's energy wouldn't last long. They had to get out of here now. If they where attacked again, there was no way Exveemon would be up to another duel. Daisuke doubted if Exveemon would even remain Exveemon for much longer. He would be Veemon in another five minutes. Tops.
"Alright, that was NOT on the agenda." Daisuke, Exveemon in tow, returned to the group of terrified people waiting for him exactly where he had left them. He wasn't surprised that they hadn't moved an inch, but it wasn't what he wanted to see. "Come on, we have to get out of here before another Digimon shows up."
Not waiting for an answer, Daisuke held out his right hand and began a soft whispered trickle of words into the night.
"Uchuu sekai tobira OPEN!" [1]
The night rolled on, totally unaware of the explosion of light that quickly faded, leaving the spot where twelve humans and a Digimon had stood a moment ago empty of anything except the wind.
