Chapter One: How Many Gigas Can a Gigasmon Gig, if a Gigasmon Could Gig Gigas?
Takuya and company were in a very fine mess. Gigasmon was still stalking them, Zoe's Spirit had been stolen, and Kouji had a beast spirit that he couldn't control. It was night, they had decided to travel by moonlight for awhile. Not even Tommy complained.
"I like the night! Really!" Tommy protested when Zoe fussed over how brave a little boy he was.
/Gigasmon is really very stupid./ Bokumon thought. /He'll never guess that we're traveling by night and it will put us at least half a day ahead of him on the route to the Forest Terminal./ He looked up at the stars. /I have a really bad feeling that something horrible will happen, but the stars are so beautiful that I don't care./
"You've been awfully quiet Kouji." Takuya said thoughtfully.
Kouji was spared having to answer that comment by a sudden scream. The scream was followed by a "WHY CAN'T I SCAN YOUR FRACTAL CODE YOU IMICILE??!!"
The group ran ahead at top speed.
"I'LL NEVER TELL YOU YOU MONSTER!" A girl's voice snarled back. "YOU'RE THE DUMB ONE!"
"Then watch while I take your little friend here!"
"Arbor Shard! LEAVE HER ALONE!"
Takuya arrived on a very interesting scene. A digimon that looked kind of like a brown skinned woman with orange cat fur. Her face was covered in a mask of leaves. Four swords were crossed over her back. She had claws, which were currently pinned by what seemed like ropes of rock. A second, dragon like digimon with four feathery black wings and blue armor was knocked out.
"Damn you!" The digimon swore. "Leave my partner digimon out of this! I'm the one you want! You mother fucking sonofabitch!"
"Nice language, me kill you now." Gigasmon said with a grin. "Quagmire…"
"LOBOKENDO!" Kouji jumped in, slashing the bindings.
"GIVE ZOE BACK HER SPIRIT YOU PILE OF ROCKS!" Junpei yelled, charging in fully digivolved and very angry.
The girl was cut free. Takuya steadied her. "Thanks." The digimon said, blushing. "I settle Gigasmon!" She yelled at Junpei.
"As long as you get Zoe's spirit back I don't care!" Junpei backed off.
"Great!" The digimon raised an outstretched hand. "ORPHANIMON'S LYRE I SUMMON THEE!" Energy began to collect in her hand. "Tell Cherubimon that this is what he gets for messing with a legendary angel! SEPHIROD SONG!" The blast of light from the attack blew Gigasmon over the horizon.
Kathy devolved and blacked out. Zoe caught her before she hit the ground. "Beetlemon help me please! She's heavy!"
"Okay." Beetlemon helped her set Kathy on the ground.
"How could Spirit Evolving knock somebody out?" Tommy asked, taking her pulse.
"I don't know, but we need to find a place to hide from Gigasmon tonight and until she wakes up." Takuya said worriedly.
Kathy's eyes fluttered open briefly as Bokumon leaned over her. "Here's a joke." She said weakly. "How many gigas can a Gigasmon gig if a Gigasmon could gig gigas?" Then fell back unconscious.
Bokumon couldn't help but chuckle. Then he sat back and began leafing through his book. "Lets see. Orphanimon's Lyre… ACK!"
"What is it?" Kouji asked.
"Orphanimon's lyre, the legendary sword of Orphanimon grants two very powerful mega level attacks to its user. The Orpheus Lyre technique fires a powerful barrage of sonic sound that temporarily paralyzes corrupted digimon. The other attack, Sephirod Song lets out a blast of energy to keep an enemy digimon at bay, or throw them back, or just about any effect that the user wants, depending on intent. Even better, it protects her from getting her data scanned by any digimon below mega level." Bokumon read.
"That's heavy shit she's packing." Takuya said, with a grin.
"No wonder Gigasmon couldn't handle her." Kouji said, with a small smile. "I'm impressed, for such a little girl she packs quite a punch."
"I'll take her Zi." Junpei/Beetlemon lifted Kathy into his arms. "Rockabye baby.."
Zoe smacked him with a stick.
They quickly found a cave. Takuya started a fire in it, while Bokumon erected a screen to shield the light from the outside and the fire inside from the wind. Neemon went to sleep, but Tommy, despite his yawning, trooped out to go find some meat apples. Zoe and Junpei covered Kathy lightly.
Only then did the armor digimon who'd woken up and followed them speak. "My name is AeroRaidramon. I thank you for saving my human partner."
"You're welcome." Zoe said with a benign smile. "But what were you doing out here?"
AeroRaidramon sighed, staring into the flames. "My partner Kathy and I serve the historian, Scribemon. He's a mega level digimon. Years ago, Orphanimon trusted him with that sword. It's called the sword of nobility, or Orphanimon's Lyre. The evil legendary warrior of Steel, Mercurymon attacked Scribemon and stole his fractal code, causing him to dedigivolve to the rookie level. Now he's dying, Gennai said that if we can retrieve his Fractal Code, we can save Scribemon." AeroRaidramon said grimly. Her eyes narrowed. " We were looking for a place to make camp. That's when Gigasmon found us." She sipped water from the bowl that Bokumon had laid out for him.
"Poor Kathy." Zoe said worriedly.
"That was amazing the way she laid Gigasmon to waste like that!" Junpei exclaimed.
"But clearly such power has a great cost." Kouji looked into the fire. "Otherwise she wouldn't be unconscious."
"Kathy doesn't have a D-tector Digivice. Her digivice, the Force-3 isn't programmed or built to handle Spirit Evolution. Gennai's working on the algorithm to change it into a D-tector, but since Orphanimon was imprisoned, he doesn't know how to break the code on it for her." AeroRaidramon said, setting his head down on his paws. "There's no way that we can contact her either."
"Is she going to be alright?" Tommy asked worriedly as he put meat apples on sticks for roasting. "Takuya, if you wake me up early I can get some fish too, but Bokumon, I don't think we can survive on an all protein diet. We might get scurvy or something."
"She'll be fine. But she's only had to Spirit Evolve once before. Gennai told her that since she has me, to only use Spirit Evolving for emergencies." AeroRaidramon told them. "Especially because Spirit Evolving take a lot out of her."
"That's too bad." Zoe said, staring into the fire.
"It's life. In ancient times, before even Lord Lucemon hatched. Digimon were not as nice as we are today. We destroyed each other without provocation, without reason. If we digivolved too far too fast we lost sight of ourselves. We became Wild Ones. Then the digimon tamers came, they helped us to gain control, training digimon and keeping the peace in the digital world. They saved us from the D-Reaper, then left without leaving a trace. They reappear in the digital world from time to time, for old times sake." AeroRaidramon looked up at Zoe with such sad eyes that, Zoe looked away.
"It's life." She echoed.
"Hey you guys!" Junpei called after them. "She's saying something in her sleep!"
"Orphus…lyre…Rika…help me…Don't…Scribemon DON'T!" She moaned in pain, then turned over, clutching her backpack. "Don't die… don't leave me!"
"Kathy…" AeroRaidramon got up and nuzzled Kathy gently. "You'll be fine. Scribemon will be fine." She assured the girl. "They have him in a stasis capsule. He's frozen in time."
Kathy sighed, falling into a deeper sleep.
But Bokumon didn't feel anywhere near as peaceful.
