Chapter 4: Trouble in Heaven.

"Whoa, that was weird." The confused Veemon said as he opened his eyes. "Huh?" The confused digimon said as he looked up at the digimon in front of him. "Davis?"
"Uh, hey Veemon."
"Cool, you never told me you were a digimon!"
"That's because this only happened recently." Said TK with a sigh.
Veemon looked around at the group, finally noticing that there were others present. "Whoa, everyone's a digimon."
"Actually," Izzy spoke up still processing the information in his computer/helmet. "Sora, Matt, and Cody aren't here."
"Well, what happened?"
TK spoke up again. "Basically, some dark digimon caused a stampede that made the cliff to collapse, we were deleted, and Primary Village reconfigured us as digimon."
"You mean you guys were deleted while we were off playing?" Veemon asked, looking ashamed.
"Don't worry, it wasn't your fault." Davis said while patting his partner on the back. "We should have been more careful."
"Prodigious!" Izzy shouted suddenly. "Hey guys, from what I'm reading, Davis is barely using any energy to sustain Veemon. The link is acting as a sort of catalyst to keep Veemon's energy up."
"Whoa, wait, hold on." TK (who had taken enough science courses to know what was going on) spoke up. "Are you telling us that the link itself is supplying the energy?"
"Apparently. Every time I try to scan for the source, all I get is this strange symbol."
"What symbol"
"It's a large triangle with three smaller ones on each of its sides." (In case you didn't catch that, it's the same one that Calumon has)
"Doesn't sound familiar."
"Hmm..." Gennai mumbled in thought. 'Where have I heard of that symbol?'
"Why don't you try TK." Davis suggested.
"Good idea." Izzy agreed, as he turned to TK. "Turn the knob until it's at 5%. so I can get an accurate comparison." He instructed.
"Okay, here goes."

Sync Digivolution: 5% ratio

Digivolve to... Patamon.

When the light died down, in the place of the egg was a disoriented patamon.
"Huh, wha..." Patamon said as he tried to get his bearings. He finally looked up at the person who was holding him. "TK! Your Okay! We felt the darkness and we rushed over to the cliff and..." He stopped suddenly as he noticed the wings. "Um, TK why do you have wings?"
Davis spoke before TK could. "Well, Primary Village wasn't equipped to handle humans, so we were reformatted as digimon."
"Reformatted!?"
"Davis, couldn't you have sugar-coated it a bit?" TK asked with his hand over his eyes.
"Why? It's not like it's a big deal. Everyone's okay, we're not blaming them."
"Yeah, but it's still a shock. Besides, we don't even know if it could be reversed."
"What did I tell you about thinking like that? Come on, being a digimon wouldn't be so bad. Besides, now we have some extra firepower for when we go after that dark digimon."
"Hey guys!" Elecmon called. "Another one just formed."
"It looks like he got another one." Yolie sighed.
"We'd better go explain what's happening." Joe said as he began walking back to Primary village.

The leader of the Virus Busters stood before Azulongmon's slowly deleting body. His face was a mixture of disgust and satisfaction. "Now your corrupt reign is over." He stated.
"You do not understand. Virus digimon are not-"
"Save your propaganda."
"I shall return to stop you." Azulongmon stated with determination.
"Maybe, but without your digicores, you'll just be an ordinary digimon. Hmph, probably a virus too."
"But, Dae-"
"You will be the first to witness the digimon who will wipe out you filth." The leader said as he picked up three of the digicores. Once he had them he concentrated as his digivice began to light up the entire room. The last thing Azulongmon heard before he was completely deleted was:

Lopmon warp digivolve to. Slash Angemon.

***
"Yup, it's another one." Was the first thing the boy heard as he came to.
"Do you think it was that digimon again?"
"I wouldn't doubt it."
He decided that this would be a good time to open his eyes. So he did. The first thing he noticed was that he was still in the digiworld and surrounded by digimon. The second was that something was off. One of those nagging feelings where you know something's not right but you can't put your finger on it. He decided to ask the most prominent question in his mind, "Where am I?"
"Primary village." The bird-girl digimon answered. "You were reformatted."
"Reformatted? But I'm a human."
"So were we."
He finally stopped and looked at the group. Nine humanoid digimon, probably adults and perfects, with each with a child digimon near them. They had all been human. Wait what about him. As he sat up he felt something brush against the ground. He looked down and saw grey wings sticking out of his back, looking up he saw he had a total of eight of them. He noticed he was wearing robes that seemed to be tattered and stained. Before he could get any further he heard one of the others speak.
"Let's see what the digimon analyzer says."

Forsaken Angemon, Perfect level, Virus type, fallen angel digimon. A fallen angel, rejected by the light, yet refusing to submit to darkness, he wanders the digital world following his own path. His attacks are Tarnished Sword, and Purgatory Gate.

"Great I'm a virus type, now they'll have." he stopped as exactly what had happened occurred to him. "Azulongmon! Is he alright?"
"Whoa, slow down, what happened?" the dragon-man digimon said.
Gennai decided to speak up, "Azulongmon should be fine, after all he had those "Virus Buster" kids with him. From what they told me, all of their digimon can reach the Perfect level."
"They're the ones attacking him!"
Gennai gave him a puzzled look before asking him to explain.
The boy did his best to compose himself before answering. "My name is Gabe. Those guys have been harassing virus digimon all over the digiworld for about three months now, and have tried to delete Black Salamon ever since we met them. We heard that they were going to speak to Azulongmon, so we decided to tail them. When I got there they were trying to convince him to let them be some sort of special 'protectors'. We stepped in to explain to Azulongmon what they did. When he found out and when they didn't deny it he tried to send them away. They basically called him a corrupt guardian and moved to attack. We got in the way and now We're here." He answered, looking shaken toward the end.
Tai stood up. "We have to go help him!"
Izzy, who had been typing away at his laptop since the start, decided to speak up. "It's too late Tai." He said with a grim look. "I just scanned Azulongmon's realm. He wasn't there, but I detected eight ultimate level digimon before someone put up a barrier. I was lucky I was able to keep him from tracing me."
"It looks like we're up against at least one other computer nerd." Tentomon commented idly.
As if to confirm his findings, an egg suddenly formed in the field. Davis was the first one to speak "Is it.?" He ventured.
Izzy scanned it for a few seconds before giving a grim nod. Everyone seemed to become depressed at this point.
Tai finally spoke up, "How were they able to delete him, anyway? He's probably the strongest mega in the digital world."
Gennai was the one to answer this. "He had just gotten back from helping Zhuqiaomon, the southern guardian, battle a monster called the D- reaper, and was extremely low on energy. He would have a hard time defending himself against one perfect, let alone eight."
"You know, this is awfully convenient." Davis said suddenly.
"Yeah," Ken said after thinking about it. "The same day that Azulongmon gets back from his fight, is the day that he's confronted by these Virus Buster guys and is coincidentally the day that nine of the digidestined famous for defeating the darkness are mysteriously deleted."
Now everyone looks really nervous.
"They'll probably be by here soon to retrieve Azulongmon's egg." Gabe said as he picked it up.
"What should we do?" Yolie asked looking towards Gennai.
"I think we should take him to that Zhuqymon guy."
Everyone turned to stare at Mimi.
"You know..." Ken started.
"That's a good idea." Tai finished.
"Gennai, do you know of a way to get to the southern quadrent."
"Well, yes. that's probably for the best anyway." He said after a moment of thought.
"Then we'd better get out of here." Tai stated.
Kari turned to Elecmon, "If they come by asking for this egg, say that two angel digimon took it and left. Don't put yourself in any danger on our account."
"Lets get going." Davis said as he picked up Veemon and took off.
To be continued.
