Digimon(2).EXE
* * * * *
"He looks like some kind of bowling ball with legs and
wings," commented Ruki.
Renamon realised that the Digimon in front of her did seem
quite small, however, that didn't mean it still wasn't
dangerous.
"Who are you?" asked Renamon cautiously, keeping her distance from the small Digimon.
A small smile spread across the Digimon's face, as he
floated in front of them, keeping itself afloat with the beating
of its tattered wings.
"My name is Devimon," replied the small, black Digimon. He looked like head with clawed feet and wings and stitches. However, he certainly didn't look very formidable. "I've been ordered by the Head of the Dragon Syndicate to brainwash the children of these schools through the subliminal messages on the PA System. And I've been doing quite a good job of it, don't you think?"
"Not really," replied Renamon. "You're
nothing more than an unimportant blabber mouth."
Guilmon advanced cautiously towards Devimon. The thing seemed
so small, he thought it would be no match against him in a fight.
"Why do you want to do this?" asked Guilmon curiously. "Working for the Crime Syndicates is bad. Did they force you into it?"
An angry snarl had spread across the Digimon's face, as
Guilmon advanced. Renamon noticed this. She could tell that
something was going to happen. She could tell that something
incredibly bad was going to happen.
"No, stay back!" warned Renamon, but it was far too late.
Devimon spread his wings and glowed darkly. He became entirely
black and grew until he was Renamon's height. Horns grew out of
his head, as his wings spread wide apart, flinging Guilmon away
from him.
The fire-style Digimon landed with a thud a few metres away
from the transforming Devimon, wincing in pain as he crashed onto
the hard floor of the terminal.
"Guilmon, you okay, boy?" asked Takato concernedly.
The dinosaur Digimon looked up from the floor and glared at
the transforming Digimon.
"I'm fine," replied Guilmon, as he got back up to his feet. He watched as horns grew on the head of the Digimon. A low, guttural growl rumbled from his snarling lips, as he beheld the transformation. Deep down, he knew that this Digimon was evil and would do everything in its power to destroy them. He had underestimed Devimon.
Devimon crossed his arms, as he looked at them with a fanged,
smug smile. He laughed at them.
"Did you really think that you can defeat me, Rookies?" he asked the two Rookie-level Digimon. "Fools! You are only Rookie level, whereas I, the Great Devimon, am Champion level. You have no hope of defeating me!" He leapt into the air and lashed out at Renamon with his sharp claws, tearing clumps of digital fur from her. "Pitiful! Evil Wing!" He clenched his right hand into a fist and fired a powerful black ray of darkness at the two Digimon.
Both leapt out of the way. Guilmon rushed at Devimon with a
roar. He slashed his claws at Devimon, but found them passing
through thin air. He leapt up the normal-style Digimon and tried
to bite Devimon. His teeth snapped on to thin air. A black hand
then smacked him in the face, sending him flying back.
"Hold on, Guilmon!" called Takato. "DigiModify-
Hyper Speed activate!"
A surge of power built up within Guilmon's muscles. He
rushed forward with blinding speed and leapt again. Guilmon's
teeth sank into Devimon's arm. He held on tightly, growling
like a dog and tugging at the normal-style Digimon's arm.
"Let go, you miserable mongrel!" roared Devimon
angrily, as he beat Guilmon's head with his free hand.
"Let go!"
"Leave my friend alone!" shouted Renamon, as she
leapt through the air and kicked Devimon in the face.
Guilmon let go and landed to the floor, as Devimon crashed to
the terminal ground.
"Thanks for the assist, Rena," thanked Guilmon. If he was a dog, his tail would have been wagging furiously. "So, Devimon, give up, yet?"
The Syndicate Digimon rose up to his feet, an angry snarl on
his face. He wiped his mouth of spittle, before a smile spread
across those bloodless lips of his.
"You're everything that His Excellency said you were," chuckled Devimon, as he raised his arms into the air, his hands outstretched as if to touch the sky. "You're good, but I will not be defeated by you! Come! Come and do my bidding!"
A strange dark whirlpool appeared above them.
"It's raining viruses!" exclaimed Guilmon, as he
saw several strange computer programs drop to the floor. He saw
that all of them were GreenDrop viruses, which looked like
amorphous balls of green snot with faces. "Easy!" he
exclaimed, before inhaling deeply. "Pyro Sphere!" He
spat out a sphere of flames that struck one of the GreenDrops,
incinerating it.
"Touch of Evil!"
Several clawed hands, just like Devimon's, burst out of the
terminal floor. One lashed out and grabbed Guilmon by his head,
holding him down to the ground. He tried to break free, but more
clawed hands grabbed him. He couldn't move at all. His pupils
widened, when he saw Devimon fire a black ray of dark energy
straight at him.
"Takato!" he called out to his Operator.
"Hang on," called out Takato. "DigiModify-
WarGreymon's Shield activate!"
A shield like the one that WarGreymon used appeared right in
front of Guilmon and took the brunt of the blast. It wasn't
enough to keep from Guilmon being back, however. The shield
disintergrated into tiny bits of digital data that dispersed into
the air, as did the arms that held him down.
Renamon saw that Guilmon was hurt badly, not from the ray, but
from the forceful collision with the ground.
"You're going to pay for that!" shouted Renamon, as she leapt into the air. "Diamond Storm!" She flung a powerful shower of crystal shards at Devimon, but the Digimon's wings curled around him protectively and her attack merely bounced off of him. "No... That's impossible!"
She saw Devimon's clawed hand lash out at her and she did a
back-flip, avoiding those sharp claws. More hands burst out of
the ground, and that she didn't count on. They grabbed at her,
whilst some clawed at her painfully. Renamon cried out in agony,
as the hands clawed and punched her.
Guilmon practically howled with rage. He inhaled sharply and
spat out a ball of fire at Devimon. He missed. Guilmon rushed
forward and slashed his claws at Devimon.
"Is that the best you can do?" laughed Devimon.
"I would have expected better from the Digimon that
destroyed the Juggernaut Virus!" He leapt into the air and
performed a whirling roundhouse kick that knocked Guilmon back.
"Now, be deleted!" he laughed, as he plunged through
the air and lashed his claws out.
* * * * *
"This can't be happening," protested Takato,
as he watched Guilmon roll out of the way. "We're losing
to him."
Ruki sighed, shaking her head.
"We shouldn't be losing like this," she sighed miserably. "We're out of touch. We've completely lost it."
"No, we haven't!" shouted Takato all of a sudden.
He could see that Guilmon was clearly in no danger. Sure, his
Digimon would be hurt, but not fatally. "If our Digimon team
up together, they'll be able to defeat that Devimon for
sure!" He pressed a button on his D-Tector and brought up a
new interface on the screen on his D-Tector. "Let's see
what DigiModify Chips I've got installed right now," he
murmured, as he checked the screen. "Ruki, have you got a
Hyper Speed Chip?"
"Yep," replied Ruki with a nod of her head.
"What...?" she began, only to trail off. "Oh, I
get it. You've got another Hyper Speed chip, haven't
you?" She received a silent nod in reply and suddenly
realised what Takato's plan was. "You know, goggle-head,
that just might work."
Takato hated it when she called him that. He had only worn
goggles once, only once, and she continued to tease him about it.
Perhaps he shouldn't have had gone to that costume party as
Taichi Yagami.
"It will work," he said sternly, ignoring her goggle-head comment. "Okay, let's go! DigiModify- Hyper Speed activate!"
"DigiModify- Hyper Speed activate!"
* * * * *
Guilmon could feel the surge of speed in his body. He
rushed forward and slashed the arms that held Renamon down. Still
using his enhanced speed, he grabbed Renamon by her hand. Guilmon
spun her round and round him, faster and faster. He let go and
sent her flying towards Devimon.
Renamon hit Devimon, sending her opponent flying back. She
landed on her feet with cat-like grace, as Guilmon rushed up to
her.
"Okay, let's double team him, shall we?" she suggested. She received a nod in reply. "Okay, then. Diamond Storm!" She crossed her arms and spread them, letting fly with a shower of crystal shards that flew straight at Devimon and the viruses that dropped down in front of to attack.
"Pyro Sphere!" Guilmon inhaled sharply and spat out
several fire balls at the Digimon.
Their attacks flew through the air relentlessly, smashing into
viruses and into Devimon indiscriminately. Neither escaped
Guilmon and Renamon's onslaught, until the Hyper Speed
Modification wore off.
At the end of the onslaught, Devimon was bruised and battered.
Still, there was that angry expression on his face. Still, his
red eyes glowed with pure hatred, but now they seemed to burn
with a fiery rage more intense than any Guilmon and Renamon had
ever seen in their lives.
"I will not lose to you punks!" spat Devimon angrily. He rose to his feet and spread his arms and wings out wide. "Come to me, my viruses and empower me!" He laughed insanely, as the remaining viruses turned into black, gear-like objects and flew towards him. They pierced his body and went inside of him.
Guilmon and Renamon backed off as Devimon began to grow in
size.
"That's not possible!" exclaimed Ruki's voice.
"No Digimon is supposed to grow to that size! Not even a
MegaGargomon!"
The largest Digimon was only three times as large as an
Angemon. Anything larger was more likely to be corrupted by a
virus and therefore a candidate for deletion by the Antivirus
Programs.
"I don't care how big you can get!" shouted
Guilmon. He shouted more loudly as Devimon grew in size, for fear
of not being heard. "We will stop you and you Syndicate
scumbags!" he roared, before inhaling sharply. "Pyro
Sphere!" He spat a sphere of fire at Devimon, but it merely
bounced off the Digimon's skin harmlessly.
Devimon roared with laughter.
"Do you really think that you can defeat me so easily?" he asked the two smaller Digimon. "I am a Digimon from the Blue Dragon Syndicate, the most powerful crime syndicate in the entire Earth Sphere. Nothing can stop me! Nothing!" He lashed out with a claw and smashed it onto the terminal ground, but not before the two Digimon leapt out of the way. "Miserable insects!"
"Hey, I've got an idea!" called out Ruki.
"Renamon, try and trick him with this. DigiModify- Holy
Statue activate!"
A stone statue suddenly appeared in front of Renamon. The fox
Digimon suddenly realised what it was.
"Please, I know what that is," chuckled Devimon.
"I won't touch it with a barge pole."
"Surprised you know what one is," taunted Renamon.
This got the indignant response from Devimon that Renamon
wanted to see. The black Digimon lashed out with his claws and
stabbed them into the ground at Renamon. He missed the statue,
however.
"I will tear you into pieces, fox!" roared Devimon.
"Not likely," retorted Renamon, as she leapt in
front of the statue.
Devimon laughed at the fox Digimon's poor effort. He placed
his hand directly over Renamon and fired a ray of pure darkness
at the Digimon. Renamon leapt out of the way, as the beam struck
the ground, missing the statue again.
"Here, catch!" cried Guilmon, as he charged straight
into the statue and pushed it into Devimon's beam of dark
energy.
"No!" screamed Devimon in fear, as he saw the statue
smash into the beam and shatter into pieces. He pulled his hand
back. He looked on in horror and saw the statue had shattered
into an uncountable number of pieces. "I've got to get out
of here," he cried, before the pieces of stone turned into
spheres of energy that shot up into the sky and then fell back
down to plunge into Devimon's black digital flesh. "No,
you'll pay for this!" screamed Devimon, as sphere after
sphere of energy hit him.
Guilmon and Renamon watched as Devimon broke apart into bits
of digital data that scattered apart.
* * * * *
"We did it!" exclaimed Takato.
"We sure did, Takato," agreed Ruki with a smile on
her face. "We don't make a bad team, do we?"
Takato glanced at the computer screen on Principal Hida's
desk.
"Nope, and it seems as if our Digimon take after us," he stated, as he saw Guilmon and Renamon talking together within the school's network. "Well, Principal Hida, it looks like your network problem's all over," he told the Principal with a widening smile on his face.
"Yes, it does seem that way," replied Hida with a
nod of his head. "I must thank you, Takato, Ruki. What can I
ever do to repay you?"
"That's okay, you needn't do anything for us,"
said Ruki modestly. "We were only doing what was
right."
The Principal smiled.
"Yes, that's right," he agreed with a nod of his head. "Well, I guess if I ever have computer problems I can turn to you two," he laughed cheerfully. "Oh, is that the time?" he exclaimed, when he turned his head to look at the clock. "You two had better get going or else you'll miss your lunch."
"Kai!" exclaimed Takato all of a sudden, as he
remembered he had left his lunch with his friend. "He's
got a bigger appetite than I have," he suddenly realised.
"I've got to go!" He quickly unplugged his D-Tector
and ran for it, afraid that his friend would end up eating his
lunch.
Ruki sighed and shook his head.
"Takato," she sighed in an exasperated tone of voice. "I'm sorry for that, Principal Hida. Have a nice day." She bowed respectfully to the Principal, before leaving his office.
"Yes, and you have a nice day too," said the
Principal.
The Leader of the Blue Dragon Criminal Syndicate wore a
blue military tunic. A cape was draped around his shoulders and
held in place with a bat-shaped clasp. His pearl grey gloves were
tented together, as he sat in his large velvet-cushioned, wooden
chair. The blinds were closed, like last time, but this time the
computer screen gave off a glow that illuminated his face.
He had blonde hair with bangs that dangled down to his
eyebrows, which were covered with some sort of red mask. His face
was pale, which contrasted greatly with his blood red mask, which
covered only the top area around his eyes.
"So, Agent H, you failed me, did you?" asked the Dragon Syndicate Leader, which was kind of surprising, seeing as he didn't have a mouth. "I did not expect this from you, Principal Hida."
"It wasn't my fault, honestly!" protested the
image of Principal Hida. "It was those DEVA Cadets, the ones
that helped destroy the Juggernaut Virus." The look on the
Principal's face was one of pure terror. His face was almost as
pale as that of the Syndicate Leader. "You must believe me,
Your Excellency!"
His Excellency raised a gloved hand.
"Silence!" he barked sharply. "Principal Hida, was I not the one that rescued your school from financial ruin? Was I not the one that provided your school with the up-to-date textbooks it sorely needed?"
"Yes, Mr..." began Hida, only to trail off. He did
not know the name of the Dragon Syndicate's Leader. He began to
wonder. Did anybody know the His Excellency's name?
"I gave you so much and in return you fail me like
this?" growled His Excellency. "I expected more from
you, Principal Hida, far more than this." He reached out and
pressed a button and the image of the Principal disappeared. He
pressed another button and another image appeared on the screen.
"Agent M, commence Operation Epidemic," he ordered his
next agent. "Oh, and Agent M..."
"Yes, sir?" exclaimed the new Agent.
"Don't fail me like Agent H did," stated His
Excellency sternly. "He failed me and he will suffer dearly
for his failure." A deadly smile spread across his face, one
that made Agent M shiver with fear. "You will suffer too, if
you don't succeed," he told her. "Do not forget that,
Agent M. Never forget that."
"I won't, sir."
"Good," chuckled His Excellency, before he pressed
another button and switched off the screen. "Things will go
according to plan this time," he laughed. "I will have
those Four Keys! They will be mine!" His insane laughter
echoed all around him and even seemed to penetrate the Digital
World.
