Problems in Primate Paradise
Last time on NDW: Jason briefly rejoined the group long enough to give Jay a sore jaw, but he left before the main action started. The group was attacked by two cactus digimon, but they were able to handle them with little difficulties. Meanwhile Jason was trying to discover who he really was and determine why he attacked his so-called friend. His partner heard a noise coming from a nearby lake, and Jason went to investigate. The forgetful digidestined saw a Dolphmon in the clutches of a Shellmon, using his meager skills and a few distractions he was able to free the Dolphmon who brought a Seadramon to help with the battle. When both fights were over, the final crests were revealed. Now what's happened to the rest of the guys?
"Jason can we slow down?" Coyomon queried. "We've been following their trail for at least two hours."
Jason merely kept walking, he knew his partner was still tired but he didn't want the trail to grow too cold. "Let's keep going for a little bit," he said to the small digimon that was at his side. "If you're tired, I can carry you."
"I know you're just trying to follow their trail quickly.but you can find them a lot easier than that," Coyomon revealed.
Jason looked at him puzzled.
"Just press that map button on your watch," the lupine digimon explained with a sweatdrop.
"Oh," Jason responded as he pushed the button. A holographic map showing the immediate area was emitted from the watch face. On the map, Jason could make out a black symbol, as well as seven symbols all jumbled together.
"What do you make of these symbols Coyomon?" he asked showing the projection to the small lupine digimon.
"That black mark is us.the rest are each member of our group.like the green one is Jay." Coyomon explained before Jason pushed the button again causing the picture to disappear. He headed in the direction indicated by the map. "Lets go.they're not far.and all together," he explained. The two disappeared in the dense forest just as a yellow slender digimon with a bone slung across his back swung into the area on top of the trees. Should someone be looking at him, they would discover that he was yet another victim to the fever. He fell to the ground and began sniffing and searching. Finding the trail that Jason and Coyomon left behind, he began to follow them.
Jason and his partner were oblivious to their pursuer as they trudged on, eventually stopping before they got to the edge of a clearing. Pushing aside a branch Jason peered into the open area.
Inside he could make out easily 50 creatures. There seemed to be two types, one was a large gray creature with a cannon for an arm. The other type was the yellow creature with the bone slung across its back. Right in the center, there was a cage made of various twigs and branches. Inside sat all of the digidestined with their partners nearby. Right next to the cage sat a throne, with a large tan monkey with sunglasses covering his eyes.
The monkey stood up and paced around the cage.
"Now we'll just wait here until the big boss arrives," He said in an Elvis accent.
"Why don't you just destroy us and get over with it?" Savannah demanded.
"Now that wouldn't be very sporting, if I get to destroy you, then who will my master destroy?" the tan monkey questioned.
"Well if you wanted your master to destroy us so badly then why didn't you get the complete set?" Michael asked. "There's still one of us out there who's able to be a bigger thorn in your side than us."
"Yeah! For all you know Jason's over there," Sarah said pointing to the area where Jason was surveying the area. As soon as he saw her finger he ducked down, letting the branch fly back into place, rustling the leaves.
The monkey raised an eyebrow as he saw the fluttering branch. He signaled for two of the gray creatures to take a look. They ran in the direction that their leader indicated. Right when they jumped into the bushes, there was some sounds indicating a struggle. They returned with another golden haired creature. It had a lump the size of a grapefruit on its head from where the gray creature hit it with it's cannon.
"Here is the spy boss," one of the gray apes said.
"Why must I be surrounded by complete idiots?" the tan monkey mused. "He's one of us you morons."
The gorillas dropped the fallen ape.
"Must I do everything myself?" the shaded monkey asked himself as he rubbed his eyes. He moved towards the edge of the clearing and soon disappeared from view.
Lauren looked around. "Why did the big monkey leave?"
"Must've been something in the forest," Jay said crossing his arms and leaning against the cage.
"Do you think it could've been.?" Pixie began.
"His mind's still out to lunch," Sarah said as she shook her head. "Even if he was here Jason wouldn't be able to help. We'll have to get out on our own."
They hear a loud, "Concert Crush" in the direction that the tan monkey left, followed by "You can't stay out here forever! I will find you and you'll wish that that blast had killed you!"
Right at the edge of the clearing a white light shined through the underbrush. Just then Pumamon burst into the space with his partner on his back.
"Talk about a growth spurt," Jason said. "Hurry up, that under-evolved Elvis impersonator won't be fooled for long."
"Roger," the giant mountain lion acknowledged as he leapt towards the cage.
"Energy Cannon," several of the gray creatures cried. Energy beams flew from all of their cannons, one got lucky and struck Pumamon's chest, halting his movement. Jason flew from his mount and landed right next to the cage.
"GET UP BOTH OF YOU!" Meddie cried.
"Remind me to install seatbelts on that mountain lion," Jason said as he sat up. He shook the dizziness from his head as he rolled to his feet; narrowly avoiding three clubs hitting right where he had just lain.
"Mega Bone Stick," Three golden monkeys cried all swinging their clubs trying to hit the free human.
"CRUD," Jason said as he backed towards the cage. One bone swiped and hit the ground right to the left of Jason. Another swung and hit the cage, rattling it. The third aimed for his head, but instead hit the cage's crude lock, the only thing keeping the digidestined in check, breaking it off.
"Payback time," Michael said slamming the door open. The rookie digimon all jumped out of the cage into the clearing.
"Bladeramon digivolve to." Bladeramon began. The light enveloped the rookie and when it dispersed his champion form was in its place. "Daggermon"
"Kodokumon digivolve to." Kodokumon stated. The purple light hit her and as it dispersed, you could see her champion form. ".Serenemon."
"Kakumon digivolve to." Kakumon said. A pink light hit her and she too became a champion. ".Garosumon."
"Washimon digivolve to." the green bird said. He was hit with a green light and evolved as well. ".Raptormon."
"Ashemon digivolve to." Ashemon said. The burgundy light emitted from Medusa's watch glowed, causing her to shift to the champion level. "Blazemon."
"Tentomon digivolve to." Tentomon said. An orange light hit him changing him into his monstrous beetle form. ".Kabuterimon."
"Dazemon digivolve to." Dazemon said. A blue light hit him, shifting him to become his winged tiger form. ".Daizetmon."
"Revenge is a dish best served HOT," Blazemon said. "Heat Wave." She loosed a fireball at one of the gray creatures. Its fur caught on fire and it ran around screaming until the flames consumed it entirely, changing it to data.
"What do you suppose these creatures are?" Jason asked as he moved towards his fallen partner.
"Only one way to find out," Savannah said. She pointed her orange watch towards the nearest gray creature. "Gorillamon, champion level, its energy cannon attack is something you wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of."
Pixie turned her watch towards the yellow creatures. "Apemon, champion level, its mega bone stick is able to crush a Woodmon into a pancake."
"Electroshocker," Kabuterimon cried, shocking an Apemon's bone club out of it's hands. He then moved in and threw it against a tree, making it become data.
"Ruby Charade," Garosumon cried. She launched her attack that hit a Gorillamon's cannon right as he was about to fire. His whole arm exploded. It pounded its chest with its remaining fist, hoping to take his aggression out on a land-based attacker. His gaze shifted to Daggermon.
Daggermon used his staff to combat five Apemon at once. He was surrounded.
"Mega Bone Stick" they all cried as they lunged for him, all attacking one spot. Daggermon was not in that one spot. He had jumped upwards into the air. His staff was behind his head, charging its attack as he started his descent. "Shadow Scythe," he cried. The purple energy from his scythe attack struck home and hit all five Apemon, cutting them into small pieces of data. He landed and looked for his next opponent.but his next opponent found him. The one-armed Gorillamon lifted him up by the staff and growled into his face.
"Ugh dental hygiene is a must," Daggermon said as he tried to free his staff by punching at the gray being's fist.
"Shadow Claw," Daizetmon cried, impaling the imprisoning gorilla and turning him to data.
"Thank you for the assist," Daggermon saluted. Daizetmon only nodded before returning to the fray.
"Fire Wave," Serenemon cried, encircling Pumamon in a protective wall of fire, letting no attacks through.
"Burning Feathers," Raptormon yelled. His emerald feathers flew and hit several Gorillamon, incinerating their bodies, but leaving the cannons intact. "How's the boss kitty doing?"
"See for yourself," Pumamon said from inside the flames. "Earth Pounce." He pounded the earth and the shockwave put out the flames and turned those burnt corpses into data.
There was a strange sound of clapping at the edge of the clearing. The tan monkey was there leaning against the tree. "Very nice, I've got to give you kids credit," he said. "I wouldn't have thought that even together you could defeat so many of my followers."
"We're full of surprises," Jay said.
"Well so am I," the monkey said. "Behold, the rock and roll king, ETEMON, ultimate digimon extraordinaire."
"Ultimate?" Lauren said. "You're kidding right?"
Jason copied the action that he saw Pixie and Savannah utilize, and pressed the analyze button on his watch.
"It's his level.he's stronger than the rest," he said solemnly.
"Well we still won't give up," Pixie said. "ATTACK."
Garosumon flew forward, her rubies spinning. She positioned herself where she could get a clear shot and fired. It hit the desired target, with less than desirable results. Etemon just stood there grinning. "Oh are you finished yet?" he asked. "I guess it's time to show you what real power is. Concert Crush." He grabbed his guitar and played a note. His attack drained Garosumon of all her energy. She fell to the ground as she reverted to her rookie level of Kakumon.
"Um.that was unexpected," Michael said. "Let's attack together!"
"Good idea," Meddie, Lauren and Sarah replied.
Daggermon, Blazemon, Daizetmon and Serenemon surround Etemon on opposite sides.
Etemon merely yawned. "Is that the best you've got?" he asked.
"Not quite," Daizetmon said. "Shadow Claw." The winged tiger lunged forward, claws at the ready. Etemon moved like a blur, grabbing the outstretched leg and hurling the flying tiger into Serenemon. They both fell to the ground in their rookie forms.
"Sonic Slash," Daggermon cried letting his purple energy blade fly at the maniacal monkey. Etemon merely moved his head and the attack went sailing into Blazemon, dropping her like a stone. Etemon grinned as he walked towards Daggermon. He cracked his knuckles as he picked the champion off the ground and threw him to the ground right next to the digidestined.
"I guess it's our turn," Savannah said, seeing all four of the attack force as rookies.
Jason held up his hands. "Wait.you all need to get out of here."
"What? What are you saying?" Pixie demanded.
"I'm saying that I want you to ride those two digimon to safety," Jason indicating the green bird and giant beetle.
"What about you?" Jay questioned.
"I'm going to keep him busy long enough for you to escape," Jason said as he began walking towards Etemon with Pumamon at his side.
"Jason don't do it," Lauren called to him.
"My sacrifice will mean little if you don't do as I say. GO NOW!" Jason shouted.
"How quaint," Etemon chuckled. "I'll still come and destroy the rest of you in the name of my master."
Etemon lunged forward "Monkey Claw," He cried. He moved like lightning and quickly dealt Pumamon two quick hits to the jaw and ended with a kick. Pumamon flew into a nearby tree and stayed motionless.
Tears welled in Jason's eyes as he turned to face the rest of the digidestined. "GO BEFORE HE GETS YOU TOO!" He exclaimed.
With that he too lunged at Etemon. Etemon merely picked him up and held him by the throat.
"Why do you sacrifice yourself for these weaklings?" He demanded. "You know you won't get anything back from your sacrifice."
Jason spat in his face. "Guess I've got a soft spot for these guys."
Etemon was about to deliver the final blow when Jason's watch began to glow. The entire watch face slid away to reveal the crest chip underneath. It shone as it was turned towards the fallen Pumamon.
"Now or never guy," Jason croaked.
The entire chip left the surface of the watch and traveled to the fallen champion. Encircling him with a wave of energy. He opened his eyes.
Pumamon Chrono Digivolve to." Pumamon said as the Crest Chip of Benevolence entered his body. A white light surrounded his form. Pumamon stood up to be bipedal, his tail was still there, but his forelimbs grew to be more like arms, with hands ending them. His cathead was still there but it had some sort of bandana around it. There was some bulky belt attached to his waist. The light faded revealing the army fatigues he wore on his hind limbs, and the white muscle shirt he wore on his torso. The bandana was all black. Attached to the belt were what appeared to be two hatchets. He wore "dog" tags around his neck that was inscribed with the crest of benevolence. ".Cougarmon." He howled.
"Let my partner go!" the newly evolved Cougarmon cried in an enraged fury. He moved faster than the eye could see and collided with Etemon, forcing the monkey to drop his prey.
Etemon wiped a smidgen of blood away from the side of his mouth. "You'll pay for that cat," he yelled.
"Bring it on" Cougarmon said narrowing his eyes.
"Monkey Claw," Etemon cried as he ran and hit Cougarmon on the cheek. "Hah not so tough now eh pussy cat?" Etemon taunted.
Cougarmon merely smiled. "Commando Claw," He cried, bringing his fist up close and pounding the monkey in the gut, making several scratches as he did so. He backed away from the monkey and pulled out both hatchets from their spots on his belt. "This is for attacking my partner," Cougarmon cried. He twirled the hatchets in his hands and brought the two handle ends together. As he pulled them apart there was an energy chain connecting them.
Etemon pulled out his guitar and began trying his Concert Crush attacks. Cougarmon merely walked through the onslaught of dreadful music, twirling the hatchets in one hand. He got up close to Etemon and wrapped the energy chain around his neck. "How do you like it when your miserable life is being choked out of you.like you tried to do to my partner? I bet you don't like it.and I'm gonna be a nice guy and let you go for now." He released the monkey from his hold and began walking back towards his partner.
Etemon couldn't stand being beaten so easily. But with Cougarmon's back turned he sensed an opening. "Monkey Claw," He cried running at Cougarmon's backside. With catlike reflexes Cougarmon placed a hatchet in each hand and swiftly turned around. "Cougar Slice," he cried. He brought both hatchets up high and brought them down on Etemon in a diagonal motion for each, making an x through his body. When Cougarmon finished his cut he did a back flip kicking Etemon's head to the far end of the clearing. His head disintegrated upon impact. The decapitated body followed suit. The ground began to shake, like something big was headed this way.
"Um why is the ground shaking?" Jay asked. "Usually good things happen when we defeat someone."
"So Etemon was not mistaken when he said that I could find those brats here," a loud voice boomed.
Everyone turned to where the voice originated. But then they had to look up a couple of stories. Then they finally found the head that uttered those words. The head was comprised of a silver mask with a grill for the mouth and two eye slits, filled with blood red eyes and no pupil was present. Looking down a little bit you can see both of his arms. His right arm was robotic and it seemed to be floating in midair.as if magnets held it up. The left was attached to a ball at the shoulder joint, allowing maximum movement. This arm had four fingers and a thumb protruding from its glove. They all had extra long nails. Moving down you could see an organic left knee.but the rest of that leg is metallic. His right leg had virtually no armor save for the foot and kneecap. His waist is covered in an extra thick area of metal; there is a gap between this armor and the huge breastplate covering his chest. The only other spot with no armor was his back, which like all the other "naked" parts was all blue with some scales covering the skin.
"So you are the thorns in my master's side," He boomed. "Well you will soon find out that I, Titanimon, am no weakling like Echomon."
Cougarmon merely looked him up from head to toe. He turned and gathered each of the still fallen partners and handed each to his or her digidestined.
Turning to the remaining champions he said, "Um.I think digression is the better part of valor."
"You're saying we run?" Jay said. After he took another look at the large digimon he began to shake. "Good idea. Hey Raptormon lets go." Raptormon landed right next to him. "Lets go lets go," Jay urged the closest two digidestined, who happened to be Sarah and Lauren, onto the giant bird's back along with their partners. Kabuterimon and Savannah followed suit with Meddie and Michael.
"That leaves you two," Cougarmon said. He bent down and picked up Pixie and Jason and placed them on his shoulder. "See ya big guy," he called as he raced into the forest.
When they got a good distance away the severity of the situation lessened. "Oh, um.here's your hat back," Jason said handing Pixie her cowboy hat back. She took it and placed it on her head.
"Thanks Jason, for my hat and saving us back there," She began. "Why did you come back?"
"Something came over me.I can't explain i." Jason said but was cut off by Pixie kissing him on the lips.
She blushed as she resumed looking forward.
"Geeze Pixie.if I knew I'd get this kind of treatment I would have saved you a long time ago." Jason said.
Titanimon, the second carrier, has been introduced!!! HOW WILL WE SURVIVE WITHOUT THE GOGGLENECK AT 100%? What is this new Chrono Digivolution? Tune in next time to: The New Digital World.
Yay.another finished chapter.ok enough of that down to business.our webmaster is going on vacation for a week and a half starting Sunday.so just send your stuff to him and wait patiently for him to return. Ok enough announcements.I let you all off too easy last time.for the threat.I'm going to force anyone who doesn't review to watch the tellitubbies.

"Kodokumon digivolve to." Kodokumon stated. The purple light hit her and as it dispersed, you could see her champion form. ".Serenemon."
"Kakumon digivolve to." Kakumon said. A pink light hit her and she too became a champion. ".Garosumon."
"Washimon digivolve to." the green bird said. He was hit with a green light and evolved as well. ".Raptormon."
"Ashemon digivolve to." Ashemon said. The burgundy light emitted from Medusa's watch glowed, causing her to shift to the champion level. "Blazemon."
"Tentomon digivolve to." Tentomon said. An orange light hit him changing him into his monstrous beetle form. ".Kabuterimon."
"Dazemon digivolve to." Dazemon said. A blue light hit him, shifting him to become his winged tiger form. ".Daizetmon."
"Revenge is a dish best served HOT," Blazemon said. "Heat Wave." She loosed a fireball at one of the gray creatures. Its fur caught on fire and it ran around screaming until the flames consumed it entirely, changing it to data.
"What do you suppose these creatures are?" Jason asked as he moved towards his fallen partner.
"Only one way to find out," Savannah said. She pointed her orange watch towards the nearest gray creature. "Gorillamon, champion level, its energy cannon attack is something you wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of."
Pixie turned her watch towards the yellow creatures. "Apemon, champion level, its mega bone stick is able to crush a Woodmon into a pancake."
"Electroshocker," Kabuterimon cried, shocking an Apemon's bone club out of it's hands. He then moved in and threw it against a tree, making it become data.

"What? What are you saying?" Pixie demanded.
"I'm saying that I want you to ride those two digimon to safety," Jason indicating the green bird and giant beetle.
"What about you?" Jay questioned.
"I'm going to keep him busy long enough for you to escape," Jason said as he began walking towards Etemon with Pumamon at his side.
"Jason don't do it," Lauren called to him.
"My sacrifice will mean little if you don't do as I say. GO NOW!" Jason shouted.
"How quaint," Etemon chuckled. "I'll still come and destroy the rest of you in the name of my master."
Etemon lunged forward "Monkey Claw," He cried. He moved like lightning and quickly dealt Pumamon two quick hits to the jaw and ended with a kick. Pumamon flew into a nearby tree and stayed motionless.
Tears welled in Jason's eyes as he turned to face the rest of the digidestined. "GO BEFORE HE GETS YOU TOO!" He exclaimed.

"Why do you sacrifice yourself for these weaklings?" He demanded. "You know you won't get anything back from your sacrifice."
Jason spat in his face. "Guess I've got a soft spot for these guys."
Etemon was about to deliver the final blow when Jason's watch began to glow. The entire watch face slid away to reveal the crest chip underneath. It shone as it was turned towards the fallen Pumamon.
"Now or never guy," Jason croaked.
The entire chip left the surface of the watch and traveled to the fallen champion. Encircling him with a wave of energy. He opened his eyes.
Pumamon Chrono Digivolve to." Pumamon said as the Crest Chip of Benevolence entered his body. A white light surrounded his form. Pumamon stood up to be bipedal, his tail was still there, but his forelimbs grew to be more like arms, with hands ending them. His cathead was still there but it had some sort of bandana around it. There was some bulky belt attached to his waist. The light faded revealing the army fatigues he wore on his hind limbs, and the white muscle shirt he wore on his torso. The bandana was all black. Attached to the belt were what appeared to be two hatchets. He wore "dog" tags around his neck that was inscribed with the crest of benevolence. ".Cougarmon." He howled.
"Let my partner go!" the newly evolved Cougarmon cried in an enraged fury. He moved faster than the eye could see and collided with Etemon, forcing the monkey to drop his prey.
Etemon wiped a smidgen of blood away from the side of his mouth. "You'll pay for that cat," he yelled.
"Bring it on" Cougarmon said narrowing his eyes.
"Monkey Claw," Etemon cried as he ran and hit Cougarmon on the cheek. "Hah not so tough now eh pussy cat?" Etemon taunted.
Cougarmon merely smiled. "Commando Claw," He cried, bringing his fist up close and pounding the monkey in the gut, making several scratches as he did so. He backed away from the monkey and pulled out both hatchets from their spots on his belt. "This is for attacking my partner," Cougarmon cried. He twirled the hatchets in his hands and brought the two handle ends together. As he pulled them apart there was an energy chain connecting them.
Etemon pulled out his guitar and began trying his Concert Crush attacks. Cougarmon merely walked through the onslaught of dreadful music, twirling the hatchets in one hand. He got up close to Etemon and wrapped the energy chain around his neck. "How do you like it when your miserable life is being choked out of you.like you tried to do to my partner? I bet you don't like it.and I'm gonna be a nice guy and let you go for now." He released the monkey from his hold and began walking back towards his partner.
Etemon couldn't stand being beaten so easily. But with Cougarmon's back turned he sensed an opening. "Monkey Claw," He cried running at Cougarmon's backside. With catlike reflexes Cougarmon placed a hatchet in each hand and swiftly turned around. "Cougar Slice," he cried. He brought both hatchets up high and brought them down on Etemon in a diagonal motion for each, making an x through his body. When Cougarmon finished his cut he did a back flip kicking Etemon's head to the far end of the clearing. His head disintegrated upon impact. The decapitated body followed suit. The ground began to shake, like something big was headed this way.
"Um why is the ground shaking?" Jay asked. "Usually good things happen when we defeat someone."
"So Etemon was not mistaken when he said that I could find those brats here," a loud voice boomed.
Everyone turned to where the voice originated. But then they had to look up a couple of stories. Then they finally found the head that uttered those words. The head was comprised of a silver mask with a grill for the mouth and two eye slits, filled with blood red eyes and no pupil was present. Looking down a little bit you can see both of his arms. His right arm was robotic and it seemed to be floating in midair.as if magnets held it up. The left was attached to a ball at the shoulder joint, allowing maximum movement. This arm had four fingers and a thumb protruding from its glove. They all had extra long nails. Moving down you could see an organic left knee.but the rest of that leg is metallic. His right leg had virtually no armor save for the foot and kneecap. His waist is covered in an extra thick area of metal; there is a gap between this armor and the huge breastplate covering his chest. The only other spot with no armor was his back, which like all the other "naked" parts was all blue with some scales covering the skin.
"So you are the thorns in my master's side," He boomed. "Well you will soon find out that I, Titanimon, am no weakling like Echomon."
Cougarmon merely looked him up from head to toe. He turned and gathered each of the still fallen partners and handed each to his or her digidestined.
Turning to the remaining champions he said, "Um.I think digression is the better part of valor."
"You're saying we run?" Jay said. After he took another look at the large digimon he began to shake. "Good idea. Hey Raptormon lets go." Raptormon landed right next to him. "Lets go lets go," Jay urged the closest two digidestined, who happened to be Sarah and Lauren, onto the giant bird's back along with their partners. Kabuterimon and Savannah followed suit with Meddie and Michael.
"That leaves you two," Cougarmon said. He bent down and picked up Pixie and Jason and placed them on his shoulder. "See ya big guy," he called as he raced into the forest.
When they got a good distance away the severity of the situation lessened. "Oh, um.here's your hat back," Jason said handing Pixie her cowboy hat back. She took it and placed it on her head.
"Thanks Jason, for my hat and saving us back there," She began. "Why did you come back?"
"Something came over me.I can't explain i." Jason said but was cut off by Pixie kissing him on the lips.
She blushed as she resumed looking forward.
"Geeze Pixie.if I knew I'd get this kind of treatment I would have saved you a long time ago." Jason said.
