Max: Hey, guys! I hope you're ready for a slobber knocker! Tonight's main event will feature two of the most fiercest warriors known in the fic universe… Too bad I'm not in this match because I would have kicked Coral's ass myself. But in any case, tonight's main event features Coral and Zeomon!
Keke: We were fortunate to get a special guest referee! Please welcome, long-time New York best selling author, former three time WWE champion, former Hardcore champion, the genius mind behind the Rock N Sock Connection, and many other accomplishments…
Max: Don't forget that he's been in two hell in a Cell matches, one with Undertaker and the other with Triple H.
Keke: Right! Here's Mick Foley!
Mick: Hey, guys! Finally, the Mickster has made his debut on SSJ4T's fic corner!
Max: Let's get the main event under way! Here comes Coral!
Coral: Yeah! You all love me! Yeah!
Keke: She's so full of herself.
Max: Well, she is a saiyan.
Keke: But Goku is not like that.
Max: He was raised on Earth, remember? He knows all about discipline much like myself. I may not be a saiyan, but I was trained by one of the greatest warriors ever. That's my father.
Keke: Exactly! Here comes Zeomon!
Zeomon: Let's get this crap over with, Coral. You talk too way too much.
Coral: Rightfully so. You should never mess with a saiyan.
Zeomon: We'll see.
Max: I say we declare this a best two out of three.
Mick: Good idea! Now let's get this match on!"
Zeomon: Let's see how much improvement you got from you're training.
Coral: You're in for a big shock!
[Coral makes her first move and rushes towards Zeomon. Zeomon reahces out and goes for a fist to the face. Coral phases out before the fist could connect. Zeomon looks up and finds Coral playfully winking at him.]
Zeomon: I'm impressed. You've made to up you're speed tenfold.
Coral: Why, thank you.
[Zeomon summons forth a sword with slashes Coral at her side.]
Coral: Yeow!
Zeomon: Did that hurt enough for you?
Coral: Nope. That was just a fleabite. You're moves are so predictable!
Max: While these two settle their differences, let's get on with the fic. The Digi-Destined must regroup after a grueling ass kicking from the artificials! Enjoy!

[Digimon Zero Two opening theme "Target Akai Shougeki" plays during the opening sequence]
No Match for the Artificials?! Leomon's Last Resort!
Angemon X flew right down towards the battle grounds where Metalla X was at Sonja's mercy. He wasn't going to let Sonja kill his young father much like her future self killed his future father. He would not allow them to destroy this time period for their own cruel pleasure. Angemon X wrenched back and pulled out his blade. He picked it up and raised it over his head. He let out a screaming rage and flew down towards Sonja. Sonja could only look up as Angemon X was about to slice her in half. This was the same technique that sliced Burizalor into cold cuts. But would it be effective against an artificial such as Sonja? Only Angemon X knew that answer to that question as he drew his sword and brought it down on her.
Angemon X watched as the blade nailed Sonja right on her arm. But instead of slicing her arm off, it bounced off and the tip of the blade shattered. Angemon X gasped in total shock as he looked at his now broken sword. He couldn't believe that the tip broke and was unable to slice her. Angemon X turned around and saw Jax flying right at him with his fists wrenched back. Angemon X tried to defend himself but the speed of Jax was unbelievable. Jax nailed Angemon X in the side of the head and sent him flying back. Jax flies up and phases out. He reappears above Angemon X and pushes his foot down into Angemon X's chest. The fused warrior went crashing down into the ground.
Angemon X lay right where Metalla X was kneeling. He watched as the two artificials were flying down. Metalla X quickly got to his feet and flew over towards the two artificials despite the nagging injuries that he was suffering. Jax sees him coming and knees him right in the face. Metalla X goes sprawling back and allowed Jax to fire away several devastating ki-blasts that sent the mighty fusion warrior down to the ground.
Angemon X gets to his feet and goes to blast away at Sonja but she was able to deflect them and send them right back at Angemon X. Sonja phases out and reappears behind him. She then executes a chop to the back of his head. Angemon X goes falling down to the ground as his body became battered down as a result of being beaten away by the two artificals.
The other digimon could only watch on. They couldn't bear to stand watching the two fused warriors getting their butts handed to them by these two powerful foes. Leomon has seen enough.
"That's it! We have to go in and save them! I'm tired of waiting! Let's go!" Leomon cried out.
"Stingmon, don't let your guard down," Ken said.
"Let's move!"
"Becareful, Aquillamon!" replied Yolei.
"Kick some artificial ass!" Davis said.
"Pegasusmon! Hold them off and don't worry you got plenty of help!"
"Right! Let's move out gang," cried out Xveemon.
Leomon jumped into the battle grounds as the two artificals turned to face him. Leomon pulled out his sword and charged at Jax. Jax saw him coming and flew right at him. Sonja saw both Aquillamon and Stingmon coming towards him.
"Blast Ring!"
"Spiking Strike!"
Sonja managed to phase in between the two attacks and watched as they practically missed her within a split second. Aquillmon flew right at Sonja and blasted away more of his 'Blast Rings'. But they were ineffective against the speed of Sonja. She managed to maneuver from each blast being fired towards her. Stingmon appears right in front of Sonja and started throwing in punches and kicks. Sonja maneuvered from each punch being thrown at her. Stingmon could only look on as the punches keep missing her. Sonja began twisting to each side to avoid being hit. Sonja then makes direct contact with a fist to Stingmon's chest. Aquillamon flies down at Sonja and goes for his 'Grand Horn' maneuver. However, Sonja was able to sense the on going attack just in time as she quickly phased out. Aquillamon stopped himself from nailing Stingmon in time but as he turned around he was met with a kick to the face by Sonja.
Xveemon flew right towards Jax and throws in several punches and kicks. They were unable to make direct contact with Jax since he was able to maneuver away from each punch being thrown at him. Xveemon jumps back and goes flying towards Jax to execute a flying head butt, however Jax was able to maneuver away just in time. Leomon gets to his feet and goes to snare Jax, but Jax was able to phase out quickly.
"Damn! He's too fast!" Leomon said.
"Keep your eyes peeled. We'll get him," said Xveemon.
"But that's the point. We can't if we are unable to sense his energy level!"
"Yeah! That's a total bummer."
Soon they were interrupted as Jax comes up from behind them and grabs both of their heads. Jax then rams both Leomon's and Xveemon's heads together as if they were drums. Jax then executes a kick to the back of Leomon's head and an elbow into Xveemon's gut. Both digimon fell to their knees while recovering from their injuries inflicted by the powerful artificial.
Stingmon turns around and goes to slash Sonja's head off with his Spiking Strike, but she was able to quickly drop down. Sonja wrenches back with her foot and delivers a stinging boot to the abdomen of Stingmon. Stingmon goes sprawling back while holding his chest.
"Hang on guys! Allow me," Pegasusmon cried out, "Star Shower!!"
Pegasusmon spreads his wings out and releases a powerful ray of energy and sends it down at Sonja. The beams nailed Sonja as she went flying back.
"I've got her! Now I have to keep attacking her and not allow her to get any second chances."
But as soon as he said that, Sonja had already disappeared. This had caught both TK and Pegasusmon by surprise.
"No way! She's gone!" Pegasusmon said frantically.
Pegausmon turned around and was met with a kick to the side of his side. This kick was delivered from Sonja, who had already phased right at Pegasusmon's side. The armored digimon goes crashing down into the ground.
Sonja hovered down to see her three victims squirming around in tremendous pain. Metalla X was slowly getting to his feet. A smile came across the face of Sonja as she watched him get to his feet.
"No… You won't destroy my pride, artificial. Mark my words…"
"Well that's funny. Because, just a while ago, I made you cry like a little baby. Some pride you got."
"Why you?! How dare you…"
But he was unable to finish his sentence as he fell back down while coughing in tremendous pain. But Metalla X was letting his pride and anger overcoming the pain that he was enduring. He was feeding off his own anger just to continue his fight with Sonja. In his mind, he was superior to artificials and a fighter such as himself should be able to defeat scraps of metal.
"No! I can beat her! She's no match for our combined power! It's impossible that she's stronger than me! But I will not allow myself to be defeated! I'll never let a simple artificial destroy my pride."
As soon as he said that, Metalla X jumps up and goes for a spin kick to Sonja. But she was able to quickly duck under and deliver a devastating kick to his midsection. Metalla X's eyes widened as he let out a cry of pain. Sonja brought her foot down and nails an elbow to his face. Metalla X goes falling down to the ground as his energy supply was quickly depleting as a result of using up too much power during his battles. Sonja had now put down one fused digimon with ease and it didn't look like she even broke a sweat.
Xveemon and Leomon still hammered away at Jax, in attempt to get in some good shots in. However, they have been unsuccessful. Davis could only watch on and hope that Xveemon would put the evil artificial away for good.
"C'mon Xveemon! Show him what you're made of! Blast him! Kick him! Do something!"
"I can't if he keeps moving around too much! Ok that does it! Now you made me mad, you bucket of bolts! V-Laser!!"
Xveemon folded his arms and pushed forward as he released a powerful beam of energy. He shoots it straight for Jax. Leomon wrenches back as his fist started to glow.
"Fist of the Beast King!!"
Leomon pushed his fist forward and released an energy beam shaped like a lion's head. Both attacks were straight for Jax as they actually nailed him. An explosion occurred.
"Yeah! You got him!" Davis cheered.
"I told ya we can handle him!" Xveemon said.
"Don't be too sure. That blast didn't do him in," replied Leomon.
"Huh?! What do you mean?! That blast would have wiped him out!"
"Well take a better look for yourself."
Xveemon turned to see the cloud of smoke disappear and his eyes widened with shock at what he saw. He could see Jax standing without a single scratch made on his body.
"But… But… That's impossible," Davis said.
"Well so much for luck," replied Leomon.
"Impressive attack! I must say, Xveemon. For a champion leveled life form, you managed to catch me by surprise there for the last few seconds. But I was able to deflect them just in time," Jax said, "So are we done with these childish games? If so, then it's my turn to return the favor."
"Great. Why doesn't that surprise me," Xveemon said.
Jax quickly phased out and reappeared right behind Xveemon. Xveemon turned around and was met with a spinning wheel kick to his face. Leomon went to punch Jax but Jax ducked under and executed an elbow shot into Leomon's gut. The mighty warrior cried out in pain as the artificial elbowed him in the gut once again. Leomon staggered back which allowed Jax to blast him with a mighty punch to his face. The force of the punch caused Leomon to fly back and hit a nearby cliff wall.
"Ugh! I can't take much more of this!" Yolei said.
"These things are too much for our digimon to handle!" Ken said.
TK turned to see Black War Greymon just standing over on the other side and not moving a muscle.
"Hmmm. I wonder why he isn't getting involved in the battle. Maybe he's some sort of back up plan just in case the two manage to lose the battle. Or maybe he has his own agenda. Whatever the reason maybe, he just stands there, which makes it even more confusing to know what he's going to do next."
Metalla X was down and out as his body started to glow. He got up onto his feet and cried out with tremendous pain and agony. Suddenly within seconds, he was split apart in two halves. Metalla X now has reverted back to Matt and Gabumon. Their fusion power has decreased which caused them to split apart. Angemon X received the same treatment as his body started to glow. He then split into two halves and Angemon X reverted back to Dimitri and Patamon.
"Well. This is quite interesting. They're back to their weakened forms," said Sonja, "I must have done them in quite well."
"Nicely done," Jax replied, "Hey look out!"
Aquillamon and Stingmon appeared right behind Sonja and shot out several blasts at her.
"Blast Ring!"
"Spiking Strike!"
Sonja was able to maneuver away from both attacks and quickly phased out. Aquillamon turned to get nailed right in the face from a spinning back kick delivered by Sonja. Stingmon attempts to grab Sonja but gets blasted away by a large blast from behind. Stingmon turned to see Jax holding out his hand. Sonja takes advantage and delivers an elbow shot to the back of Stingmon. Jax fires away several more blasts which send Stingmon reeling back. Sonja blasts Stingmon with a large beam which causes him to de-evolve back to Wormmon.
"No! Wormmon," Ken cried out.
Aquillamon flies at the two artificials, until suddenly a large red ball of energy came out of nowhere and nailed Aquillamon right in the back. Aquillamon goes flying down into the ground as he crashed down and de-evolved back to Hawkmon. The momentum of the Digi-Destined's digimon has now taken a turn for the worse.
"Hawkmon! No! Where did that come from?" Yolei asked frantically.
"Up there! Look! I didn't even see that coming," TK cried out as he pointed up.
The Digi-Destined all looked up to see what they didn't expect to attack so quickly and out of nowhere. To their surprise, it was Black War Greymon with his hands steaming after releasing that large energy ball. Black War Greymon hovers down while catching his breath.
"Well done, Black War Greymon!" Jax replied, "I didn't expect you to break out of your silence that sudden. I must say, you scared the wits off of us!"
"Nicely done," said Sonja.
The artificials took a look at the carnage that was left in their wake. They have defeated two fusion digimon,four champion leveled digimon and an armored digimon. This wasn't a good thing as far as the Digi-Destined was concerned. They have officially lost this battle against the artificials. The reality has come true. The nightmare has come true, now the destruction of humankind was soon at hand.
"We've lost," Yolei said, "They've beaten us! There's no hope left!"
"Hey you better get your ass up," Davis growled, "Its not over yet!"
"Davis, are you blind because we just got out butts handed to us. Our digimon were beaten with ease! And the two fusion digimon were unable to defeat them! This is not good news," TK said.
"I can't believe this is happening," Ken said, "Brother. We have lost… I'm sorry…"
TK looked down towards his brother and Gabumon. He slid down the cliff and into the rocky pit below. He managed to land on his feet without straining a muscle in his leg. He runs over towards his fallen brother and holds him up.
"Matt… C'mon! Wake up!"
Jax and Sonja flew up towards Black War Greymon with satisfied looks on their faces. Ken and Yolei both went sliding down into the rocky pit in order to help revive Leomon and the others.
TK crawled over to Dimitri and shook him. Dimitri looked just about out of it. Matt wasn't looking any good either.
"You guys! They're not looking good as far as I'm concerned," TK said, "Man at least they're not infected. At least, I hope not."
Jax looked down with disappointment. He turned to face Sonja.
"I told you that they would be no threat to us and did they listen? Now look where it has gotten them," Jax said.
"It's just too embarrassing to watch. I say we get out of here and get our mission out of the way. I'm just dying to get it over with," replied Sonja.
"Well killing Taichi won't be easy until he find him," Jax said, "That's the whole challenge of it. I say we take this time to find Taichi and pretend it's our little game."
"Whatever. I just want to get out of here."
Davis was the only one standing around as he turned to face the artificials. He clenched his fists and pointed towards them.
"Hey you!"
The three artificials turned to face him and looked at Davis as if he were crazy and out of his mind.
"You kicked the crap out of Xveemon! I don't appreciate that! When he gets up, he's going to run you guys down! Do you hear me?!"
"Ha. He's just as delusional as ever," Jax chuckled, "So you're Davis Motomiya? Yeah I know you like the back of my hand."
"Oh yeah?! What do you know about me?!"
"That you're an annoying little punk," Jax said.
"I'm a what?!"
"You heard me. Do you really think that dinosaur stood a chance against either of us?"
"Why are you asking me?! He was the one fighting you!"
"Ha. He's delusional but he's quite a cute guy," Sonja said.
Sonja's comment had caught Davis by surprise. He had just heard the female artificial call him 'cute'. Davis admits that he is quite a handsome guy but he never expected a comment from an evil, yet beautiful artificial such as Sonja.
"You think he's cute?" Jax asked, "Ugh. I don't understand you women. You always let guys take advantage of you. C'mon, he's not even our priority at this very moment."
"Hey, just because I'm not real doesn't mean I can start looking for some cute guys!"
"You're so impossible."
Davis turned his head back and forth as he watched the two artificials argue with one another over something so simple. They seemed like little siblings arguing over the last cookie. Now it seemed Sonja was not going to take any crap from Jax what so ever.
"Geez! These guys argue more than Jun and I do on a daily basis. And Jun is not the intelligent type either. But I don't get that girl. She thinks I'm cute? Well, this is getting a lot more interesting than I first thought."
The two artificials continued their argument as Davis looked down at Xveemon. The mighty dinosaur was not looking good at the moment but that would soon all change as Davis' D-3 started to glow. Davis took out his D-3 and watched as a ray of energy hit Xveemon. The energy itself helped refuel Xveemon's power supply that he had lost during the battle itself. Xveemon felt his adrenaline rush as he quickly sat up. He looked up at Davis.
"Ahhh! That was a nice little nap. And you just gave me the medicine that I was looking for. Davis, what are you doing up there?! Get away from them!"
Xveemon flies up towards Davis and stands face to face against the three artificials.
"You three better lay off my friend or else!"
*****************************************************************
Back at Kyoto, the other Digi-Destined were helping their leader make through a speedy recovery.
"So, how's Tai holding on?" asked Mimi.
"He's looking a little bit better. He hasn't been sweating that much and breathing that hard," Sora said.
"Same can be said for Agumon. But we don't know how long this rest period is going to last," said Biyomon.
"If you ask me, this D-Virus is really a pain in the neck," Palmon replied.
Izzy was hard at work typing in codes to access the nearest hospital. He tried everything but it seemed as though that every phone line has been disconnected by some sort of electrical surge.
"Hmmm. The phone lines are dead, but my internet connection is not. I can't even make a call to the nearest hospital," Izzy said.
"We're going to have to do something because we don't know how long Tai is going to make it through. Jeez, I've never seen anything like the D-Virus," Joe said, "And I wanted to be a doctor of all jobs. Even helping people can give me a headache."
"But Tai is doing better at the moment. That's all that matters," said Sora.
"Hold on! There's a newsflash," Izzy said, "I better turn on the radio connection that I installed in my laptop."
Izzy uploaded a radio news bulletin that he located while trying to pinpoint locations in the city of Kyoto. He turned up the volume for everybody to get a chance to hear it.
"This just in. People in the city of Kyoto are slowly passing out on the streets and some bodies have been found to be disintegrating. We have no information on this issue, but it seems like an outbreak is taking place among the citizens of Kyoto! We urge all people to remain indoors until the military arrive to evacuate everyone from the area. I repeat, stay in doors! The military shall arrive to help evacuate every non-infected person out of Kyoto."
"Oh that's terrible," Mimi said.
"Looks like the D-Virus itself is doing the more damage than the artificials had this morning," Izzy said, "We can't even go into Kyoto now that the military are about to arrive there."
"So what are we going to do about Tai? We can't just stand out here," Sora said, "Besides Kari is on her way over here and if we leave, she's going to winder where we left to."
"You're right about that. But we can just send her an email of our current location. It wouldn't make sense if we didn't tell Kari ahead of time anyway," Michael replied.
"You guys have convinced me far enough. I say we move out," Izzy said.
"Hold on a second. We can't just leave those people to die out there," Tentomon said, "Remember our plan of using Birdramon and me to spread the antidote out by flying up."
"Right but have you forgotten that the military will find out about your presence and they could see you as the enemy," said Izzy, "And we can't let that happen."
"But it's worth a try," Biyomon replied, "Sora. We have got to do this."
"But…"
"Please, Sora. We're not only here to protect you but also of other innocent lives. Those artificials were the ones who started this mess and now we shall clean it up."
Sora could only think for a moment. Would she risk letting Biyomon go out in the line of fire and spread the antidote out all over the infected city? Sora had a choice to make and so did Izzy.
"Well?"
Sora sighed and nodded. Biyomon hugged her happily. Izzy gave thumbs up to Tentomon. "Don't worry, Izzy. We won't take long. We got this on in the bag," Tentomon said.
"Be careful!"
Tentomon and Biyomon placed the antidote powder on their wings. They were now set to digivolve as Sora and Izzy's digivices glowed to give them the power to digivolve into their champion leveled forms.
["Evolution" plays]
"Biymon shinka!! Birdramon!"
"Tentomon shinka!! Kabuterimon!"
Birdramon flies up towards the west and north section of Kyoto. She quickly flies over that section of the city and releases the antidote powder. The people looked on but they started screaming out 'monster' in total horror. There was now crowds screaming in terror and running away. Kabuterimon took the south and east portions and dropped some of the antidote powder over those portions of the city. Birdramon and Kabuterimon watched as a red cloud started to form across the city itself. The cloud started to fade away which was a good sign considering the fact that the antidote is airborne and will be able to help the people who were infected by the D-Virus.
"Alright, great work! You two better pull out of there before you cause a city crisis when the military gets there," Izzy said.
Kabuterimon and Birdramon headed back over towards the Digi-Destined just outside the city limits of Kyoto.
"Alright! I say we get away from here and head back over to Odaiba," Sora said, "I better send an email to Kari and let her know that we're heading on over there."
"Alright gang. We've heading out. Let's go," Izzy said.
Izzy hopped onto Kabuterimon along with Mimi, Palmon, Michael and Betamon. They headed out towartds the direction leading to Odaiba. Sora picks up Tai and places him in the mouth of Birdramon. She then picks up Agumon and places him where Tai was laying.
"Make sure you don't swallow them."
"Ha. Very funny."
Birdramon flew off and followed Kabuterimon's directions. Sora pulls out her D-Terminal to send an email to Kari.
"I just hope she's not too far from here. Cause I would hate to make her change directions at the last minute."
******************************************************************
Nefertimon was flying over the oceans below her as she was heading towards Kyoto. She had remembered to head over to Odaiba, since she and Kari were told that the others would be heading to Odaiba if things in Kyoto made a turn for the worse. Kari received the email message from Sora and read it.
"So, what does it say?"
"It's from Sora. She wants us to head on over to Odaiba. They said that they used the antidote in a form of a large cloud of smoke to help the infected people in Kyoto. But because of military involvement, they were now going to move Tai back at Odaiba."
"Sounds like a plan and not a bad move."
"Right. Let's head on over there right away."
"All I got to say is to hang on tight."
Kari held onto Nefertimon as they headed off towards Odaiba. All Kari could think about was the condition of her brother and the welfare of the other Digi-Destined.
"Hang in there, big brother. I'm on my way over there. Oh, I hope the others are holding off those artificials. I have a feeling that they might have already been beaten by those artificials by now but I can't lose hope now. We're the Digi-Destined after all. We can't lose."
******************************************************************
Xveemon and Davis stood their ground as they confronted the three artificials in a stand off. Jax smiled as he faced Xveemon.
"You know. I would so love to stay here and fight you but you two aren't apart of our priorities. You see, we're out to look for somebody and you two are interfering in our business. Now step aside if you wish to have your souls spared."
"Not a chance! Xveemon!"
Xveemon stood in front of Davis and got into a fighting stance.
"You two are the not ones we are looking for. We are out to find and kill Taichi. Now stand aside!"
"Taichi? You mean Tai? But why would you want to kill Tai? What has he ever done to you three?"
"Nothing. We're just out fulfilling a mission," Jax said.
"Um! Hello! Just listen to yourselves! You were the one who blew Datamon's brains out!" Xveemon said.
"Yes. I remember that but we're out to fulfill our own mission. Once that is complete, then it will be over."
"Then you won't come and kill us?" Davis asked in a confused manner.
"Nah. Why waste our times on you and your friends? We're just out to kill Taichi and to have fun."
"So this is just a game?"
"You hit the nail on the head, Davis," Jax replied, "So. If you don't mind, we got a mission to fulfill. Come on, Sonja. We're leaving."
Jax walks past Davis and Xveemon leaving the two with confused looks on their faces. Then Sonja and Black War Greymon were the next to follow.
"So, Black War Greymon, are you ready to begin our mission?" asked Jax.
"Yes."
"Ok. It's settled then."
"No wait! Wait!" Davis cried out.
"And what do you want?" asked Jax.
"You don't have to go through with this! You don't have to go and kill Tai! It's pointless! You killed the evil creator. This nightmare should be over. It's not right. Please, Tai is sick at the moment because of the D-Virus! Please, I beg of you to not go and find him!"
Jax and Sonja could only look on with confused looks on their faces. It looks as though that they have no idea of what the D-Virus was, since the time period here was very different than the one in Dimitri's time. However, nothing will stop them from fulfilling their mission.
Black War Greymon nodded and began to speak up.
"No. I was designed to destroy both Taichi and Agumon. I have no choice. I was programmed to do so."
"Well there you have it, Motomiya. So anymore questions before we head out?" asked Jax, "No? Ok then. Let's go guys."
Davis clenched his fists angrily and he sighed with disbelief. He had tried his best to convince them not to find Tai. But now it looks as though they won't even listen to his words.
"Don't worry so much about Tai," Jax said, "If I were you, I would go and help your friends. They could use some recharging from your friend's digivices and D-3s."
"Huh?"
Davis saw Sonja walking up to him with a smile on her face. He looked up at her and she bent over to give him a kiss on the cheek.
"Uhh… What?"
"You heard him. Help your friends. It's the best way to go. Well, bye cutie."
Sonja and Jax walk over to Black War Greymon as they all hovered up into the air. Now they flew off somewhere to find Taichi and Agumon to fulfill their mission once and for all. Davis could only look on with a confused look on his face. These three had left quite a weird presence and Davis felt strange vibes ever since Sonja gave him a kiss on his cheek.
"What was that kiss for? A kiss of death? She didn't seem all that bad. But those three… How can they go on like this? They know that they don't have to fulfill their mission with Datamon dead. I just don't understand this one bit,"Davis said in thought.
The three artificials flew away as they began their search for Tai and Agumon. By a matter of moments, they all disappeared into the skies, while Davis and Xveemon looked on.
"We can't let them find Tai! We better tell the others right away!" Davis said.
"Yeah but we have to help the others first. They just got their butts handed to them."
"You're right. Hey guys! Use your D-3s! They will revive the digimon with more power!"
They all nodded and pulled out their D-3s. TK pulled out his D-3 but stopped to look up to Davis.
"Hey, Davis! Where did they go?"
"They… They left. They left to find Tai! That's why I said to revive the digimon, so we can go and stop them!"
"And fight them again? Davis, we're no match for those things," Yolei said, "If you just saw what happened unless you got nailed in the head by a hammer, we all witnessed our digimon getting their butts kicked!"
"Yeah, I saw everything. I'm not an idiot. And that's why I suggest we stop from them finding Tai! They're going to kill him if they do locate him," Davis replied.
"Shit. There's no time to loose. But I thought that they rebelled against Datamon's orders," Ken said.
"Well, they have their own agenda now. They're going to find Tai and if we don't do something, he's going to die."
"Right! Alright guys! There's no time to waste, we revive our digimon. Then we'll revive Matt, Leomon and Dimitri," TK said.
They all nodded in agreement. Yolei holds out her D-3 and looks on to see an energy beam hit Hawkmon. Hawkmon felt his body filled with new, pure energy. Ken watched as his D-3 gave Wormmon more power to his energy supply. TK watched as Pegasusmon de-evolved back to Patamon but was give more power from the glowing D-3.
"Ok. Let's all revive the other three," Davis said.
They all held out their D-3's and watched as beams nail Dimitri, Leomon and Matt's fallen bodies. As soon as that took place, Matt's digivice and Dimitri's D-3 were activated once again to allow Gabumon and Dimitri's Patamon to reawaken.
"It's working you guys. Yeah, now we're officially back in the game!" Davis said.
Matt and Dimitri slowly sat up as did Leomon. Matt was shocked to see himself back to normal, but he could remember everything that had occurred. Dimitri looked at his sword and noticed that the tip of it was shattered into pieces.
"Its great to see you guys back on your feet. Man, I tell you. We are in serious trouble as we speak," Davis said, "Those three artificials are gone. They're out looking for the other Digi-Destined, more specifically Tai."
"Ugh, that's not a good thing. My sword was ineffective against those things, even when Patamon and I fused to become Angemon X," Dimitri said.
"They're probably nowhere near the location of the other Digi-Destined. I say we plan out our next move," Leomon said, "I say we continue our search for them, but one of us must go back and warn the other Digi-Destined about the artificials."
"Right. Then I shall be the one to do it," TK said, "Besides I'll bet they're away from Kyoto by now."
"Alright, then the rest of us can go out and look for those artificials before they locate Tai," Leomon explained even further.
Matt looked up into the sky and growled angrily. He couldn't believe that he and Gabumon in their fusion form was unable to defeat the artificials. He felt humiliated and would not let that happen to him ever again. He held his digivice and turned to face Gabumon.
"Matt, what's wrong?"
"This is wrong. We won't allow ourselves to be defeated again. So I say, we look for those artificials ourselves!"
"What about the others?"
"Let them do as they please, but this is something we have to do ourselves! Now, digivolve Gabumon! We got to get our heads straightened out."
Matt held out his digivice, which was beginning to glow and then his chest started to glow the symbol of friendship, which allowed Gabumon to warp digivolve into his mega form.
"Gabumon warp shinka!!"
A beam of light hit Gabumon as he evolved through all of his evolution stages. First into Garurumon and then into Were Garurumon. Finally, he evolves into Metal Garurumon.
"Metal Garurumon!!"
Metal Garurumon let out an angry cry as his body started to glow a bright aura of light. Matt hopped onto his digimon and they set off into the air. The others turned to see them get away.
"Matt! What the hell do you think you're doing," TK cried out.
"No! I got to stop him!" Dimitri said.
"Dimitri! TK! You two stop right there!" Leomon said.
"Huh? But… Why? He's going to get himself killed if he fights them again," Dimitri said.
"Let him go. He's just need to readjust himself out of his anger period," Leomon said, "He's taking a time out."
"Oh. Well that's a relief but just hope he doesn't get the wrong idea and decides to fight those artificials again," TK said.
"No kidding. But Matt has changed a lot ever since he and Gabumon fused into Metalla X. I gotta wonder how Gabumon feels about Matt nowadays," Ken said.
"Dimitri. When you and Patamon fused to become Angemon X and fought Burizalor three years, you didn't even break a sweat. You took care of him rather easily. But now it seems that these artificials are even stronger than you," Yolei said.
"Yes your right. They are a lot more powerful than the artificials from my time," Dimitri said.
"Say what?!"
"Yeah. It's strange but the artificials are very powerful indeed. But in this time period, I never expected them to be a lot stronger than the ones in my time period. Everything is going out of proportion and my predictions haven't been looking too sharp either," he continued on.
"If that's the case then we're going to have to take a different approach to this situation," Leomon said.
"And how you propose on going through with that?" asked Xveemon.
"I don't know just yet, but I'll decide."
"What's on your mind, Leomon? Do you have a plan? Wow, if you do, you could share it with us," Davis said.
"No. Not just yet. I'm not sure if it will work but I must try."
"Ummm and what are you referring to?" asked TK.
Leomon looked up as if he knew what to do next, but he shouldn't let the others know about what his plan was all about. The others were quite curious to know but he wasn't ready to let them know at this very moment.
"C'mon you can tell us," Davis said, "What's your plan?"
"I must go."
"Go where?" asked Ken.
"I must go and talk to the higher powers about this situation. Maybe there is still some hope left. I shall be back," Leomon said.
With that said, Leomon runs off and then flies off. The others could only look on with confused looks on their faces.
"Ugh. Don't tell me he needs a time out period too," Yolei said.
"I don't know where's he off to, but I'll bet its something that will really become a big help to our benefit," TK said, "I can trust Leomon at what he's doing. Whatever it maybe…"
"But where's he heading off to? And what's this higher powers he's referring to?" asked Davis.
"Ha. Davis, you're silly. I'll tell you everything," Patamon said, "He's going off to see the four higher powers that watch over each four sections of the Digital World."
"Then who must be those four higher powers?" Davis asked.
"Duh! He's going to go see the four guardians of the Digital World!"
"Wait a second, you mean the four guardians that watch over the Digital World. I heard that story from a man I met in Kyoto."
"Who was this man?" asked Ken.
"Sora's father. He knew quite a lot about the legend. But how can Leomon find the four guardians if they're in the Digital World?" asked Davis.
"Davis. You are so full of questions. They're going to open a portal for him," Patamon said, "See how simple everything has to be explained to you."
"Yeah. Yeah. I get it now."
"Well now that's all settled. How do we prepare for the artificials now? We're going to need than just two fusion warriors at the moment," Xveemon said, "if only Davis and I could fuse or Ken and Stingmon could fuse. Or anybody."
"Hmmm. It's going to take quite a lot of work but we're just going to have to fight those artificials ourselves," Dimitri said, "We will try our best. Who knows, maybe one of you will be the next to fuse with your digimon."
"I can't wait. You hear that Xveemon? That means you and I could become one unstoppable fighting machine," Davis said.
"Yeah if only you could handle my voice in your head."
"Yeah that would get a little nauseating."
"Ok, so it's all settled then? Alright, I say we split into two groups. Davis, Ken and Yolei, you three go off together. TK and I will go off and find the current location of the artificials. If we all do this in a timely fashion, then we could have a good chance at finding them," Dimitri said.
"Alright it's all settled. Hawkmon, you have enough energy to armor up!?"
"Oh yes, but to whom? Shurimon or Halsemon? Which do you prefer?"
"Halsemon shall do the trick, besides we're just out to scout the entire area."
"Alright then!"
Yolei activates her D-Terminal and watches as her Digimental of Love gave Hawkmon the power to armor digivolve into his armored form.
["Break Up!" plays]
"Armor Shinka Energize!!"
"Hawkmon armor shinka!! Halsemon, the Wings of Love! "
"Wormmon!"
Ken's D-3 glowed and it gave Wormmon the power to evolve into his champion-leveled form.
"Wormmon shinka! Stingmon!"
"Let's go gang! We can't afford to waste any more time," Davis said, "Xveemon you lead the way!"
"Right!"
Xveemon led the way for Halsemon and Stingmon as they set off to look for the three artificials as fast as they could. TK and Dimitri stood there watching their comrades set off on their mission.
"Well, it's just you and me, TK," Dimitri said, "By the way, I need to ask you a question."
"What is it?"
"Well. I really need to know. Is Matt always like this?"
"Hey, it's alright. I know for a fact that you're my brother's son and it's cool to know that you're one of the Digi-Destined's next generations. It's really good to know that even in future time, the tradition of a Digi-Destined still lives on."
"I was honored to become one. Ever since my father died, I was for sure that I was the one destined to take his place and save my future time from those evil artificials."
"And as far as your mother is concerned, I'm sure she'd be proud of you. But as far as present day Mimi is concerned, she will be quite shocked to know that you will be her future son."
"Yeah she would be."
"So, what do you say? I say we head back over to Odaiba and check to see if the others are there by now."
"Yeah, are you up for it, Patamon?"
"You can count on me Dimitri."
TK and Dimitri's D-Terminals activated as two Digimentals came flying out. The two items allowed both of their Patamons to evolve into their armored forms.
"Armor Shinka Energize!!"
"Patamon armor shinka!! Pegasusmon, the Galloping Hope!!"
"Patamon armor shinka!! Pegasusmon, the Galloping Hope!!"
"Wow. Talk about your double mint twins!" TK remarked.
"Come on, TK. We have to get to Odaiba as soon as possible!" Dimitri said
"Right!"
Both boys hopped onto their respective Pegasusmon and they both set off towards the direction that would lead them towards Odaiba. But little did they realize that Kari would soon be on her way over there as soon as possible.
"Oh, young father. Why must you be difficult sometimes? Maybe this cool off period will do you some good."
******************************************************************
Elsewhere, Matt and Metal Garurumon were heading towards somewhere to revise the events that had just taken place. Matt is still angered how he and Gabumon in the fusion form were unable to defeat the artificials. Matt felt he was an indestructible fighter and was confident about beating the artificials but he was humiliated and embarrassed by what he calls "low class pieces of junk".
"I'll show them! Just you and wait see, artificials! When I get out of my cooling period, I'll teach you never to humiliate me. Mark my words, revenge shall be ours."
With that said, Metal Garurumon powered up with a red glow in his eyes. He felt the same kind of anger that Matt was feeling. It was quite symbolic since both share the same kind of emotion as far as the anger and desire was concerned.
*******************************************************************
Leomon was heading towards a valey landscaoe where he was told ahead of time about a portal that would open up and lead him towards the land of the four digimon guardians.
"Ah. There it is."
A large portal opened up out of nowhere leading into the Digital World. Leomon went through the portal just in time before it would close up on him. Leomon then found himself in a dark landscape with bright cliuds hovering from above.
"So this is the dormant of the four guardians? Well, this must been the place where Tai and Agumon ahve been training all this time. The guardians must have did something drastic to enable them to perfect the fusion technique. Maybe, just maybe. I can get the answers I have been seeking for."
As soon as he said that, he flew across the open domain in search for one of the four guardians.
*******************************************************************
Azulongmon was flying across the domain and protecting his boundaries. He made sure that no intruders would enter and challenge his power. Suddenly, he felt a tremendous energy level heading towards his direction.
"Well. Well. Long time no see, Leomon. I wonder what he wants this time."
"Who is it, Azulongmon?" a voice asked him.
Azulongmon turned to face the person who had asked him the question. To his surprise, he could see a young man standing in front of him.
"Who must you be?"
The young man uncloaked himself and he looked up to face Azulongmon. The mighty dragon quickly was able to recognize him.
"Gennai! My! My! You managed to take your digi-vitamins quite well. How did you manage to become young again and I thought you had passed away."
"That is quite a mystery in itself. My digital information was deleted but now I have returned with a whole new look. Being an old man is quite a pain when you have to walk and sleep all day."
"I see what you mean. X must have been responsible for this."
"Yes, he's helped rejuvenate my lost powers."
"That's good to know. X has been quite helpful. Gennai, my friend, I can sense Leomon on his way over here."
"Yes. I can tell. I must say that he has impressed me over the past few years."
"Leomon has gotten better and better as far as his fighting techniques are concerned. Yes, I can picture all those many years ago."
Azulongmon's Inner thoughts
Leomon had made a name for himself as one of the Digital World's most resourceful warriors in his short history. He has battled through many challenges and fought the most evil of all digimon. His greatest rival during the peak of his warrior live was none other than Ogremon. These two were at each other's throats. But it was Leomon who always came out on top.
Leomon had also predicted that eight powerful beings would arrive from another dimension to help him combat the forces of evil. And those beings would be none other than the Digi-Destined. However, seven had only arrived at that time. But that was more than enough as they took on Devimon on File Island.
It was a tough battle to say the least but it was Angemon who came and saved the day. Leomon also made another prediction that these seven children alone would eventually have the power to defeat the Digital World's most destructive being, that being Burizalor.
Soon, rumors and legends foretold of the fusion warrior were being a hot discussion topic during the evil reign of Burizalor. The four guardians themselves had hoped that the legend of the fusion warrior would come true. Leomon had not given up hope on that legend and guarantees that one of the eight children would eventually reach that status of power.
However, Leomon wasn't going to let Burizalor's evil forces destroy his domain. He stood up against the evil tyrant and fought through against all odds to protect those he was destined to watch over. His power grew tremendously after gaining hard training from X. X helped Leomon become the warrior that he has now become. This leads to Leomon being revived by the digitcores. After that, Leomon went out to confront Burizalor. His mission was to protect the Digi-Destined, especially from the likes of the once dominate tyrant beast.
Leomon took manners into his own hands and digivolved into Saberleomon. With his new powers, he challenged Burizalor and battled the evil tyrant into a very close battle. That was the last time that Leomon were reached his mega form and it's quite doubtful he'll ever become Saberleomon again. That's if he seeks the powers that made him a guardian in the first place, that is why he has come to see the four guardians for help. Yes. The time has come for him to realize his position and his time to reach new status of power has come.
End of inner thoughts
Leomon flew across the barren landscape in which he was getting closer and closer towards the landscape of Azulongmon. Xuanwumon looked up to see Leomon flying across his domain.
"Oh no. Here comes trouble!"Xuanwumon said in thought.
Leomon flew down towards the entrance of Azulongmon's domain and walked right through the gates.
"Hello Leomon. It's nice to see you!" Gennai said.
"Gennai? Is that you?"
"Yes. Don't I look better than I ever?"
"Hmmm. So X rejuvenated your lost powers. You didn't die after all."
"No way. Like digimon, I'm able to reformat myself when I pass away."
"Of course, you got proper treatment from X and regained your dormant powers.."
Leomon looked up and saw Azulongmon looking down upon him. Both of them stared each other down. Even Leomon wasn't afraid of a large godly power such as Azulongmon.
"You have something I need, Azulongmon!"
"So you have come? Well, Leomon. This has become quite a lot more interesting than I first thought."
Yes, this situation has gotten a lot more interesting. Now that Leomon has found Azulongmon, what kind of offer does he seek from the mighty guardian and how will Azulongmon play part in this whole artificial mess that has been getting out of hand? Will the Digi-Destined make it to Odaiba just in time before the artificals do?
[Digimon Zero Two first ending theme "Ashita wa Atashi no Kaze ga Fuku" plays]
[Preview]
Leomon: You have something I need Azulongmon. Those artificials are going to run rampant on earth. We need something that can at least stall them before Tai gets to full health.
Azulongmon: Yes, I have something that might help. However, it will take time…
Davis: Just why did Sonja give me that kiss? Is there something crossing her mind?
Azulongmon: There's more to then D-Virus than previously thought… I will give you everything I know up until this point…
Leomon: What's that?
Matt: Damn those artificials! Nobody humiliates me! Nobody! Revenge shall be mine…
Kari: We better get my brother to safety.
Jax: We'll find you, Taichi. You can't hide from us, forever.
Black War Greymon: Destiny awaits me. You're fate shall come, Taichi.
Izzy: What's this? It looks like some sort of pod that Dimitri traveled in, but it looks old and full of moss. I don't have any information on this…
Dimitri: I don't understand. That pod looks old… I already have mine… What's going on here?!
Ken: Next time on Digimon Fusion, episode twenty!
The Artificials Are Closing In! Izzy Discovers an Unwelcome Revelation!
Sonja: Don't you miss it.
***************************************************************************************
Max: So, the Digi-Destined have another problem to worry about? Shit, if they weren't fucked up before.
Keke: This match has been becoming more than just a fucking slobberknocker! Coral has been showing improvement and she doesn't look lik she's about to tire out.
Mick: These two have been trading blows, but it looks like Zeomon is gaining an advantage. He's going for his batented Nova Star!
[Zeomon stands down and shoots out blasts from his helmet. Coral phases away and delivers an elbowshot to his spine. Zeomon flies back.]
Coral: Don't keep your eyes off of me!
[Zeomon goes for a backelbow, but his elbow is caught by Coral. Coral sees an opening and delivers a kick to his ribs.]
Coral: Just to let you know, I'm being serious. I'm not kidding around anymore!
Zeomon: Never said you were. I just want to kick your ass for what you did to SSJ4T. He never asked to be your training dummy.
Coral: Is it my fault for not getting proper training? Anyway, this first match is mine!'
[With that said, Coral phases out above Zeomon and cups her hands together. Zeomon shoots out his Nova Star. Coral blasts Zeomon with a Kamehameha wave.]
Coral: First fall is mine.
Mick: Ow, damn! It doesn't look like Zeomon is getting up from that one! The first fall goes to Coral!
Coral: Get up, Zeomon! I know that didn't finish you off.
[Zeomon gets up with little wounds. He simply dusts himself off and nods his head.]
Zeomon: I let you take that one. The second match is going to get ugly. I hope you brought insurance, because I've got an ambulance ready for you!
Coral: Bring it on! I promise you won't walking after this one!
Max: The second match will be in the next chapter of the artificial saga! We hope you'll be here! Mick will officially call the match until we have a winner. It's Coral with 1 win over Zeomon! Can Zeomon make it one for one?
[Just then, a young girl with beautiful emerald dress, a tiara around her forehead, gorgeous blue-green hair, green eyes, and delicate, soft skin comes walking towards the annoucer team.]
Max: Say, who are you?
Keke: You must be new here.
Celesta: Yes. Pleased to meet you all. My name is Celesta. I came to see how my friend, Coral, is doing.
Max: So far she's leading one against Zeomon.
Celesta: I hope they don't kill each other.
Coral: Hey, girl! Whatca doing here? Came to support me?
Celesta: You could say that. I just don't want anyone to die from this silly dispute.
Coral: No way. I'm not going to die.
Zeomon: No, but you're going to be begging to die.
Max: Alright! We've run out of time! Be sure to check out the next chapter to the artificial saga! Until then, peace!
