Chapter 4. Ryo Spills the Beans.
Chosen Realm : Odaiba.
The chosen and digimon, along with Guilmon and Renamon sat in front of Izzy's computer, as Gennai addressed them. "I'm sorry children, but I don't know anything about any of the information you gave me. I tried asking Azulongmon, but he just started mumbling about some sort of Chaos." He said mournfully.
"The Sovereigns referred to the D-reaper as chaos." Guilmon Chirped helpfully. Gennai looked thoughtful for a moment before responding with "Why don't you all come to the digital world. I'll see if I can figure out anything and meet you at primary village in an hour."
After a Chorus of agreements, the Digidestined quickly took a digi-port to the digital world.
Chosen Realm : Digital world.
The Digidestined walked about File Island as they waited for the hour they had to come to a close. They had split up so that they could all go to their own favorite places.
Unfortunately, this worked to the advantage for the Megadramon that was lurking in the sky well above the island. The time had come for him to avenge master Machinedramon's deletion.
Megadramon felt that the smallest boy and the 3 rookies with it would be the best targets to start with, since they weren't all together at once. Of course, he wished they were all in one spot, then his Dark Side Attack could get them all at once.
Cody, Armadillomon, Guilmon and Renamon were all heading towards primary village early. Cody had volunteered to watch the two special rookies that way his friends would not have to worry. Besides that, he didn't trust them very much and wanted to keep an eye on them.
Suddenly, Guilmon reared back and looked straight at the sky. Looking up, both Cody and Renamon realized that they were in trouble. A Megadramon was flying straight at them, and was opening his claws to use his Dark Side Attack.
"Scatter!" Shouted Renamon, prompting just that. Down came the Dark Side Attack, and up went a nice large chunk of ground. Guilmon and Renamon turned as one and launched their attacks at the marauding ultimate.
"Pyro Sphere!" "Diamond Storm" but the attacks had nearly no effect, other than to bump it's arm just far enough off course that its next Dark Side Attack exploded about 20 feet behind them rather than on them.
"Armadillomon, Digivolve!" yelled Cody. "Right! Armadillomon digivolve too... Ankylomon!" Ankylomon stood ready to block the ultimate level digimon's attacks, but without the ability to fly, and without any ranged attacks, was left unable to retaliate.
"Great, the one time we don't expect danger and all split up for a while, we get an ultimate versus two rookies and a champion that can't hurt it." Groused Cody under his breath.
Cody quickly slid underneath Ankylomon, which was a relatively safe spot since Guilmon and Renamon were distracting Megadramon, and sent an e- mail from his D-terminal. Megadramon's Dark Side Attacks were missing the nimble rookies and impacting all over the area.
Suddenly, one of Megadramon's attacks managed to detonate near the slower of the two rookies, and Guilmon was sent flying. Seeing an opportunity to finish one of the annoyances, Megadramon launched another attack towards the dazed rookie...
Tamers realm : Shinjuku Park.
One hour (and a bucket of ice water to wake the napping Kazu) later, the tamers were all in the park in front of Guilmon's shed, to find out what Takato and Rika had gathered them all for.
"Okay chumley, spill it. What was so important that you had to interrupt my beauty sleep?" asked the still damp Kazu. "Shut up idiot! You can get exited after Gogglehead tells us what he found." Snapped Rika, with a venomous look towards Kazu.
All together, the tamers numbered ten. Takato, Rika, Henry, Ryo, Kazu, Kenta and Susie were all in attendance. Jeri, who was considered a tamer even though her partner's data had been loaded, was not being asked to come. The digital world would contain harsh memories for her. Ai and Mako were Impmon's tamers, but were too young, and had never been to the digital world, so they were not going to be asked to come either.
Takato would not have let Susie come to the meeting, except that she overheard about it and had clamped onto her brother's leg with her strongest grip (which is not so negligible, considering the effect it had when she used it on Terriermon and Lopmon) in order to prevent him from leaving without her.
"Alright, lets see it then." Ordered Ryo in his customarily cocky yet somehow still friendly attitude. A few words of agreement followed from the tamers at the meeting.
The next minute was spent explaining what Takato's D-ark was capable of now, and how it had gained this ability. The tamers reaction? All except Ryo had their mouths hanging nearly to the ground. Ryo merely looked surprised.
"So, the compass points me North, to another portal. I figure we can use that portal to get to the digital world and get our partners back!" Takato finished with a grin.
"But that portal is the one in Odaiba, and leads to a different digital world, we can't use it to reach our partners, they are in our digital world." said Ryo. Suddenly, everyone was looking at Ryo in confusion. "Huh? What are you talking about Ryo?" asked Kazu.
A massive sweatdrop appeared on Ryo's head. "Well, you see, I've visited that digital world before, I helped with this nasty digimon named Milleniumon. That is the portal that I used to get home."
"But how did it get there?" asked Henry. "Oh, heh, Milleniumon did it, ya know, evil digimon and all that." Ryo sweatdropped as he answered, imagining how very ticked off his friends would be if they knew more about his partner...
Rika quickly strode forth, with every intention of murder etched onto her face, but was interrupted by Henry's concerned question. "Takato, are you all right?"
"Guilmon is in trouble." he stated. "I need to help him!" "How?" asked Kazu. "I don't know, but I still have to." Takato retorted in a panicked voice. Unnoticed by all, his D-ark had lit up.
Digidestined Realm : Digital world.
Ken had been the closest to cody's distress call, and hoped that Stingmon could hold off the ultimate long enough for more help to arrive. For that matter, he hoped he and Stingmon would arrive in time.
Stingmon crested the small hill that lead to the area where the audible explosions were coming from just in time to see an incredible sight. At the same time as Megadramon was launching its Dark Side Attack, Guilmon suddenly shone in white light shaped like an egg.
"Guilmon digivolve too... Growlmon!" In place of the Smaller Rookie, stood a much larger dragon, comparable in size to Greymon. It was crimson red over most of its body, with black markings. Its stomach was white, and had the same hazardous material symbol on it as was on its previous form. A white mane of hair flowed down its neck from its head.
It raised its head, and studied the incoming attack of Megadramon, before opening its mouth, revealing a sharp set of gleaming white teeth.
A crimson red corona appeared from Growlmon's throat, and he shouted the words "Pyro Blaster!" before sending a surging wave of flame gushing from his mouth. The flame washed over the two missiles from Megadramon's attack, and they disintegrated.
Ken watched in awe as the claws on Growlmon's arms extended and started glowing a fierce white while being surrounded by static electricity. "Dragon Slash!" Growlmon howled out, before sending an arc of white plasma flying at Megadramon.
The attack slammed straight into the surprised ultimate's head, knocking it into free-fall. The stunned digimon opened its eyes just in time to hit the ground.
"Tail Hammer!" Ankylomon shouted out as he smashed Megadramon from the ground back into the air and in the direction of Growlmon. Stingmon, who had long since left Ken behind, intercepted the ultimate with a strong roundhouse kick, sending it sailing even closer to the charging Growlmon.
"Pyro Blaster!" the spout of flame struck true, and suddenly Megadramon was being roasted by a super powerful flame attack. He wrenched himself to the side and out of the line of fire, just in time to receive a follow up attack from Stingmon.
"Spiking Strike!" the twin spike blades on Stingmon's forearms stabbed into Megadramon's wings, crippling it. The large digimon fell 20 feet to the ground with a deafening thud.
Slowly, Megadramon struggled upright... only to find itself surrounded by WarGreymon, Growlmon, the freshly DNA digivolved Silphymon, X-veemon, Stingmon, Ankylomon and Renamon.
Battle instincts took over, and it turned and prepared to fire it's Dark Side Attack at the most powerful enemy it faced... WarGreymon. This was a big mistake, because as soon as Growlmon saw that it would not stop, it charged the last 10 feet to it and, with the white hot blades on its forearms, snarled out the words "Dragon Slash!" and slashed into Megadramon's back.
The air filled with Data.
Tamers Realm : Shinjuku Park.
"Guilmon is okay now." Exclaimed Takato with a sigh. Everyone looked at him like he was a bit crazy for a minute before shrugging it off and getting back to the matter at hand.
"Good, now back to the annoyance at hand." Snarled Rika, cracking her knuckles. She had a rather malicious look on her face directed towards Ryo. "Now why wouldn't we be able to get our partners back by going to this other digital world?"
"Because it is a separate entity from our digital world." Answered a sweatdropping Ryo. "As far as I know, there are at least five digital worlds. Each one has its own unique structure, and each its own ruler or rulers. For example, the one that that portal leads to is shaped as a globe, and is ruled over by an Azulongmon. Whereas our digital world has layers, and is ruled over by 4 digimon. They are separate but still manage to have some kind of connection to each other." Ryo lectured. "So going to this other digital world is not the same as going to the digital world our partners are in." he finished.
"But I don't see the problem." Said Henry. "You seem to have trust and respect for the Azulongmon of this other digital world, so why wouldn't he help us, since there are already connections between the worlds for him to use?"
Before Ryo could comment, Takato cheerfully said, "Then it's settled! When are we going to go to Odaiba?" he asked exitedly.
"Lets go now!" screamed out Suzie in a display of exuberance that made everyone sweatdrop and think of massive sugar rushes.
"We should go tomorrow." Stated henry. "Its too late today. We need to get gear together, and we need to tell our parents. After how we saved the world, we should be able to get permission." He amended.
"THAT'S NOT FAIR HENWY!" screamed Suzie. "MOMMY AND DADDY WON'T LET ME GO! I WANNA GO TOO!" Everyone sweatdropped at this.
Henry only sighed and said "Fine Suzie, I will tell mom and dad that they need to let you go." The expression on his face was reminiscent of the look on a young child's face if you told them they were grounded for a month. Everyone's sweatdrops got bigger.
"Alright goggles, it's settled then. And anyone that doesn't show up other than Goggles or me gets left behind, because I won't wait for you. Even if I have to drag Gogglehead's limp body." Rika stated smugly. Everyone sweatdropped.
Realizing what she had just said, Rika quickly amended "Hey, my D-ark can't track the stupid gateway, stop looking at me like that!" What she didn't realize was that her face had turned red.
