Note: Don't worry, this series isn't going to be short like usual. I already have 30 chapters in planning. If you want to submit more enemy characters, feel free to do so. they may be used later in the series. Note the word MAY. Btw, Rba, I had to make up a last name for Sarah on short notice. I will correct it when u tell me the original one.

Previously: Allison saw Lee and Earnest training their Digimon in the park and got freaked out! Later on, while still trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together, Allison was assaulted by Sora! Another controlled Digidestened. Allison received her own partner: Octopimon! The small Digimon defeated Sora's partner, Biyomon while Allison knocked Sora out of the fight by ripping her necklace off! Allison then noticed that the necklace was drug-ridden. Hmmm, the plot thickens...

Heroes No More, Chapter 4: DTE Strike! Part One of Two -------------------------------

Next Sunday morning. Lee had awoken early to do his chores. Kokuwamon was still fast asleep under his bed, completely unaware that Lee's cat was sleeping right next to him. Lee's mom had taken Jenna out to a movie, so they wouldn't be back for a few hours. Lee finished off emptying the dishwasher and sat down at the kitchen table. He looked at the polished hardwood and ran his finger along it. He then looked at his finger.

"Hmmm...today is gonna be boring...", he drawled. He pushed the chair back and raised himself. He walked over to the couch and sat down on the soft cushions. He flipped around so his head was relaxed on the end and began to doze off...

DING-DONG!

"Wahhh!", shouted a startled Lee, who fell right off the couch. He smacked himself in the head and stumbled over to the door. He opened it to see a familiar smiling face with brownish-red hair and beautiful eyes to boot.

"Crap."

--------------------------

Lee poured Allison some 7-Up and brought the purple cup over to her. She took it from him and he sat down at the table across from her.

"So, Allison...", he said, praying to god she wouldn't mention what she saw yesterday. "How goes things...?"

"Oh, just fine.", she replied meekly, sipping from her cup. He stared at her confusedly, he knew she was going somewhere.

"Really...?"

"Uhm, yeah. Except for one little thing...", she started. She had a 'I've got you now' look on her face. He cringed.

"Oh, and what could that be?", asked Lee.

"Just the fact that my best friend since I could barely walk has been running around with laser shooting robot Digimon while I haven't known about it!", said Allison, sounding pissed.

Lee opened his mouth to speak, but then shut up. He knew he was about to get a harsh bitching. Suddenly, an idea popped into his head that wouldn't go away.

"How did you know he's called a Digimon?", asked Lee, curiously. Allison's jaw dropped. She had not expected Lee to be so cunning.

"I...er...", she muttered.

"I'm waiting...", he said. He was rather amused. He leaned his arms on the table and awaited her answer.

"Well, if you must know...Octopimon...", she said. She opened up her bag and the tiny little octopus floated out of it and landed on the table in front of Lee.

"Woah! You've got one! And it's...tiny...", he said, squinting at Octopimon.

"Tiny?! I'll show you tiny!", shouted Octopimon. "Multi-Slap!!!"

SMACK!

"Ow.", said Lee. Rubbing his sore cheek. He glared at Octopimon as Allison laughed at him.

"Octopimon, that was a little rude..."

"He called me tiny!", pouted Octopimon. Suddenly she looked around. "I smell another Digimon!"

Octopimon floated into Lee's room, Kokuwamon being the Digimon she smelled. Lee looked at Allison.

"How long have you had her for?", asked Lee. Allison groaned.

"One of the longest nights in my life! I have to keep finding new places to hide her because my mom is so nosey...", muttered Allison. She downed the rest of her drink and looked at Lee.

"What about you?"

"About four days. Me and him are bonding good.", said Lee. They heard a hiss and a meow. Lee's cat went running out of his room and the two Digimon went over to the door and looked out.

"I think you scared it.", said Octopimon, innocently.

Kokuwamon buzzed. "IT scared me..."

--------------------------

Later on, Allison and Lee decided to take a walk up a mountain hiking trail to the northeast of their apartment complex. Kokuwamon and Octopimon came along, of course.

"So, on the necklace I ripped off that Sora chick...I found some weird substance on it...", started Allison.

"I know...I pricked my finger on it when I removed it from Ken.", said Lee.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FLASHBACK:

"Let go of me! You don't have the right to touch me!", shouted Ken.

"I have a right to figure out why you were a pacifist this morning and why you aren't now! And I think this has something to do with it!", retorted Lee. He grabbed the black necklace around Ken, and ripped it off the boy's neck! Lee looked at his finger to see it was bleeding. The necklace instantly disintegrated and Ken staggered backwards and rubbed his eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"It hurt. I felt a little woozy later when I got home...", said Lee, massaging his brow.

"Uhm, you didn't let me finish.", exclaimed Allison.

"Woops."

"As I was saying... I analyzed it on that microscope I got last Christmas, and glory be...it was an extremely amplified dose of cocaine.", explained Allison.

"But...cocaine can't control minds...", protested Lee to Allison's theory. Allison shrugged.

"All I know is that it is part of the mixture.", replied Allison. Lee thought to himself for a second, then ripped a branch off a nearby tree for the hell of it.

"Whoever is doing this is one sick freak...", said Lee.

---------------------

Desiree's Room:

"A sick freak, am I?", asked Desiree in an amused tone. She closed the window on her laptop and opened another.

"Computer... access the Digital World."

----------------------------

Back on the mountain trail:

Lee and Allison took a break and relaxed on a little group of rocks. Octopimon went to chase wildlife around and Kokuwamon decided to practice his flight skills.

"Lee..."

"Yeah?"

"Remember when we were little, and you kept saying you were going to marry me?"

"I said alot of things when I was little. I called you an alien."

"And I kept getting you in trouble in Grade 5. What's your point?"

"I dunno, Allison. I just find it weird how you always bring up me saying I was going to marry you.", said Lee. He sat upright. "Are you hinting at something?"

"I...", started Allison, but she quickly stopped and glared at Lee.

"Huh? What?! I didn't mean any offense by it!", protested Lee. Allison shook her head an nodded over Lee's shoulder. Lee looked and saw a blonde girl standing there. She wore a pair of loose jeans and a T-shirt with a moon emblem emblazoned upon it. But the most noticeable thing was the black necklace she was wearing.

"And who might you be?", asked Lee. The girl took a few steps forward until she met Lee eye-to-eye.

"The name's Carrie. And I'm your worst nightmare.", she growled. Lee stood up and backed away until he was standing next to Allison. They looked at her.

"Let's get the 411 on this chick...", said Lee, holding up his D-Volver.

{PROFILE: REA, CARRIE}

Server: Kiriban Server

Known Relatives: None

Device Type: D-3

Functions of D-3: Evolution to Ultimate (with crest), Mega Digivolve, Junction Digivolve

Crest: Wit

Partner: Rookmon-Kovimon-Denimon-Moonlitmon

- Carrie is a member of DTE: Digital Team Extreme. A band of Digidestened bounty hunters with naturally good intentions. Carrie is a child of many gifts. She was orphaned when young and met her partner, Kovimon, on the streets. She was eventually sent back in time by her companions to stop an evil Digimon named Milleniumon from destroying innocent people. She fell in love with Izzy, another member of DTE. But that's not all. She is capable of shorting out Digimon's data and deleting them almost instantly. Eventually, she found out that since she came from the future, Izzy had turned out to be her father, and they unfortunately had to break up. A barrier was caused between the two and Carrie hasn't been the same since.

{END PROFILE}

"That's one hell of a story...", muttered Lee.

"So what do you want? You here to beat us up?", asked Allison, "Because we could take you any day."

"You, take me?", asked Carrie, almost laughing. "I am a member of the Digidestened renegade force, DTE. We never fail. We are the best."

"And that's supposed to mean what to us? You seem pretty alone for a member of a force...", retorted Lee.

"I'm not alone.", said Carrie. She walked up to Lee and grabbed him by the neck, hoisting him into the air. He gagged as she squeezed tighter on his throat. "You're alone."

"No he's not!", shouted Allison, she leapt at Carrie, and went for the necklace on her neck. Carrie turned and threw Lee into Allison, sending the two of them tumbling onto the ground.

"Ah...get your head out of my boob!", shouted Allison, angrily. But then she noticed Lee was unconscious. "Oh no...wake up Lee...!"

Carrie grinned and began to walk toward them again.

"She's so strong! That has to be an effect of the necklace...", said Allison. She inhaled and then released a mighty scream, "OCTOPIMON!!! KOKUWAMON!!! HELP!!!"

Carrie and Allison looked up to hear a buzzing noise, Kokuwamon landed in between Allison and Carrie, pinching his claws menacingly. Carrie smirked. Octopimon floated down next to Allison.

"Something happen?", asked Octopimon.

"Oh not much, except we're being ATTACKED!", shouted Allison.

"I don't see an enemy Digimon...", said Octopimon. She looked around.

"You will in a second.", said Carrie. She snapped her fingers and a blur came bounding out of a tree, knocking Kokuwamon over. She landed next to Carrie. Allison and Octopimon looked the little Digimon over.

----------=========----------- OPPONENT ANALYSIS Name: Kovimon Level: Champion Type: Vaccine Partner: Rea, Carrie Available Evolutions: Denimon, Moonlitmon Techniques: Kovi Claw - Kovimon is a small Champion, but she can pack quite a punch. Her claws are sharp, but she is better off Digivolving or attacking with a group. ----------=========-----------

"Heh heh, what ya see is what ya get. And what you got is trouble!", shouted Kovimon. She leapt at Octopimon and smacked the small Octo-thing onto the dirt. Octopimon leapt back up and hovered in the air across from Kovimon.

"Oh yeah? I'll school ya!", shouted Octopimon, "Multi-Slap!!!"

Octopimon smacked Kovimon rapidly, disabling her from moving. Kovimon was flung aside. Octopimon stood triumphant.

Octopimon leapt at Kovimon again, but the fox swiftly smashed Octopimon with one of her claws, knocking Octopimon unconscious!

"Of course she was no match for Kovimon...Kovimon's a Champion!", groaned Allison. She ran her hand down her face, "I'm the only one left standing!"

"That is correct.", said Carrie. She took a few steps towards Allison.

"Stay away!", shouted Allison. She ripped a branch off a nearby tree and brandished it as a weapon. Carrie stopped. Kovimon walked up beside her and leapt onto her shoulder.

"This is a job for a bigger man. Guardromon.", said Carrie. Allison wondered who she was talking to, but her question was soon answered as a brown robot leapt out of the bushes and clamped his two, three-fingered hands around Allison's wrists, jarring her into the air!

"Uhhnng!", grunted Allison in pain and shock. She looked back at the robot.

{{{OPPONENT ANALYSIS}}} Name: Guardromon Level: Champion Type: Virus Partner: Shiota, Hirokazu Attack: Guardian Barrage - Guardromon is a self-appointed hero who protects his partner Kazu from harm. His metallic body can take alot of damage. {{{END ANALYSIS}}}

"Aw man, Carrie! Ya like to put us on the job, don't ya?", asked a boy who stepped out of the bushes as well. He was rather short, but his hair stood up, held up by a small hat. He wore a black heavy-metal T-Shirt and looked at Carrie, who looked back at him.

"You're still a newcomer! I have seniority over you!", scolded Carrie. Kazu rolled his eyes. Allison looked at him, he was wearing a black necklace as well.

{{{TAMER ANALYSIS}}} Name: Shiota, Hirokazu Known Relatives: Mother Server: Kiriban Digivice Type: D-Arc D-Arc Functions: Card Slash, Digivolve to Champion, Matrix Digivolve Partner: Kapurimon-???-Guardromon-Andromon Bio: Kazu was born and raised in the Kiriban server, where he helped the band of Tamers there defeat the D-Reaper, a technological machine of destruction. Through a freak dimension warp, he was transported to the Yamato Server, where he became a member of DTE. He fought alongside them to defeat their enemy, Phalanxmon, but is still considered a Rookie by the others. {{{END ANALYSIS}}}

"So, what are we going to do with them?", asked Guardromon. He had somewhat of a British accent when he spoke.

"We'll destroy them!", shouted Carrie. "The mistress would be mad with anything less!"

"She is correct, Kazu.", said yet another voice. This one was also female. Another blonde girl appeared beside Carrie. She wore a bright pink tank-top and blue shorts that only came down to...well, not very far. She was decorated with expensive jewelry, and to top it off, a black necklace.

"Thank you, Kayla.", said Carrie to the other girl.

(Blast! There are three of them!? With Lee, Kokuwamon and Octopimon out, I don't stand a chance!), thought Allison.

{{{TAMER ANALYSIS}}} Name: Tennant, Kayla Known Relatives: Mother, Father, Brother, Grandfather Server: Kiriban Digivice Type: D-3 D-3 Functions: Digivolve to Ultimate Partner: Knellmon-Reylamon-Savomon-DarkReylamon Bio: Kayla was part of the second wave of DTE. She met and fell in love with another DTE member, Chris, but her mind was wiped and she completely forgot about that love. After all was back in place, she left DTE to attend her own matters, but came back in a time of stress and helped DTE topple Phalanxmon! She is extremely biased on appearance, and does her best to look as hot as possible. {{{END ANALYSIS}}}

"So, who is going to deal with this fashion disaster?", asked Kayla. Amy looked down at what she was wearing. Her regular blue T-shirt and jeans. She glared at Kayla, and tried to struggle free, but Guardromon's grip was as tough as steel. Pun intended.

"I'll do it, if it will shut you two up.", said Kazu. "Guardromon, rip her limb from limb."

"No!", shouted Lee. He leapt up and tackled Kazu. Carrie and Kayla were shocked as Kokuwamon and Octopimon leapt up as well.

"Y-you were playing dead?!", asked Carrie.

"That's right sister! Mini-Electro Shocker!!!", shouted Kokuwamon. He blasted the two girls and Kovimon. Octopimon flew over and began to smack Guardromon in the face.

"That was the plan! We knew there would be more of you, so we had to lure you out!", said Octopimon. She knocked Guardromon aside, who dropped Allison.

"You could have let me in on this plan!", shouted Allison. Octopimon made a shrug motion with all eight legs. Suddenly, she noticed Kovimon prowling up behind Allison.

"Allison! Look out!", shouted Kokuwamon. Allison turned to see Kovimon leaping at her, but suddenly, a bullet knocked Kovimon aside. The fox pulled herself up to see the two-legged fox, Leila!

"Surprise, shorty.", said Leila. She began to pour gunfire on Kovi, who simply huddled into a ball to protect herself.

"Took ya long enough.", said Kokuwamon, flying over to Leila.

"Buzz off, buzz-head.", replied Leila, who kept her concentration on Kovimon.

Down below, Kazu and Lee were tussling. Kazu forced Lee to the ground and was about to slug him when a hand grabbed the back of his shirt collar and hoisted him into the air.

'What the fu--", started Kazu, before being promptly thrown into a tree. Earnest helped Lee up.

"The plan working so far?", asked Earnest.

"Partly.", replied Lee, "Kayla still hasn't revealed her partner. Which spells trouble for us."

"Guardian Barrage!!!"

Lee and Earnest looked up to see two missiles headed at them.

"Holy crap!", shouted Lee. He and Earnest ran backwards, narrowing avoiding the missile explosion. They looked up to see Guardromon helping Kazu up.

"Kazu, are you alright?", asked Guardromon with deep concern for his friend.

"I'll be fine. As long as I never see your face again.", joked Kazu.

"Ha ha! Want me to take care of these two?", asked Guardromon.

"Nah. Just stand there and let them hit us.", replied Kazu, sarcastically.

"Ah, alright then.", replied Guardromon. He just stood there like a statue. Earnest and Lee looked at each other, shrugged and began to run.

"It's called sarcasm! Get them!", ordered Kazu, slightly ticked. Guardromon nodded and flew after them.

"He could've just said so...", muttered Guardromon.

Lee looked back at them, and couldn't help but smile. (They're a little goofy. I don't think the dark necklaces can hide their true personalities. If only there was a way to have them not function at all.)

Guardromon loaded two more missiles and prepared to fire them. Lee shouted for Kokuwamon.

"Kokuwamon! Down here!!!", he shouted. Kokuwamon flew downwards at Guardromon.

{{{DIGIVOLUTION}}}

"Kokuwamon Digivolve to..."

(Insert Digivolve sequence)

"...TECKUWAGAMON!!!"

TecKuwagamon crashed down on Guardromon. The sounds of grinding metal from their collision could be heard. They both crashed into the thicket of trees, leaving the three boys to only wonder who the victor would be.

Up above, Kovimon was finding herself no match for both Octopimon and Leila.

"Octopimon and that other guy's partner are gonna beat up this Digimon easy!", said Allison to herself. She was now filled with confidence. But suddenly, a blast of ice caught both Leila and Octopimon in the back!

"That's freezing!!", yelped Leila. She dropped her gun and then dropped to her knees. Octopimon fell to the ground. Behind them, a white wolf-like Digimon stood.

"Ladies, meet Reylamon. My partner.", said Kayla, grinning.

---------------------------------- TO BE CONTINUED

Next: Battle is declared as they go 3 on 3. But eventually, Carrie's partner Digivolves to Ultimate. Is it possible to take down such a force?
