Eternal Conflict
Amalgamation
Chapter 06: Emergence of Power
Being in a police station was not on Takeru's things to do list. Killing the Digimon Kaiser, Akiyama Ryo was, but not being in a police station.
So of course, that's where he and the other chosen were currently waiting to be questioned by the police department. The two adults were currently being questioned by the police, which included Iori's father. It was a hassle to get the digimon to be able to come with the group, although after realizing they were the same monsters that were defending the apartment area, the police relented. Takeru looked around, noticing that the benches the room had many tables and wooden chairs all over the place. He then noticed a bunch of computers over at the side.
"Good thing that Koushiro-san isn't here." Takeru remarked, calmly. The group of children and digimon looked over at him. "He'd probably get us into more trouble with the police, trying to hack the places' database."
"How can you be so calm!?" Chizuru shouted, but Miyako grabbed her arm. Chizuru looked over towards her younger sister quizzically. Miyako shook her head, telling her to stop, but Chizuru didn't listen. She turned back to Takeru. "Miyako and I just lost our parents and older sister! We saw her murdered with our own eyes!"
"At least she died quickly." Takeru remarked lowly, although Chizuru still heard him. The fourteen-year-old girl quickly brought herself off of the chair she was sitting at and moved towards Takeru.
"Chizuru-san! Stop!" Iori shouted, but the girl didn't listen. She continued moving over to Takeru and pulled her arm back, before slapping him.
Takeru didn't even flinch.
"Don't you dare say that it being burned alive wasn't painful!" Chizuru shouted.
"Compared to being skinned alive and then having your heart ripped out. It probably wasn't." Takeru replied, looking away from the girl. Chizuru's eyes widened at the look that possessed Takeru's eyes, a look that shouldn't be in anyone's eyes.
"Can you please tell us what exactly is going on?" Jun asked, trying to break the tension. "Who were those people!?" Jun then pointed to the Digimon. "And what are these things!?"
"Those things are Digimon." Daisuke said. "You would do well to remember that." Daisuke then named each one for her, in order to make any conversation easier.
"But what is going on!?" Jun moaned.
"I think a little recap on the hell that's being going on would be best right about now." Hawkmon supplied.
Takeru sighed. It was times like these that he would really liked to have someone else explain things. Like Gennai. Or maybe even Qinglongmon.
"Long story short, the digimon come from another dimension called the Digital World. All of us in here with Digimon partners, called Chosen, have to save both that world and Earth from being taken over by a Chosen that's turned evil calling himself the Digimon Kaiser." Takeru paused, turning towards Chizuru. "You may have known him as Akiyama Ryo."
Chizuru's eyes widened.
Patamon continued. "Apparently he has some other chosen allies who've gone evil as well."
"I really should report that the next chance that I get." Takeru said, interrupting the small digimon.
"Do you know who those children are?" Miyako asked. Takeru shook his head.
"No, but I have a good guess." The blond haired swordsman said.
"Then who do you think they are?" Sora asked.
"I think that they are some of the original chosen children." Takeru stated.
"What!" Taichi shouted. "What would lead you to a conclusion like that!"
"Stuff Gennai told me, mostly." Takeru said. "For starters, the original chosen's partners were a Viral Agumon, Viral Piyomon, Viral Gabumon, Tentomon, and a Patamon." He paused. "The second reason for this guess is because back then, the original chosen had the power of Dark Evolution."
Daisuke snorted. "So do you, are you one of the original chosen?" he asked sarcastically.
"I only use that with Patamon as a second to last resort." Takeru said. "Anyway, Dark Evolution was the only form of evolution the original chosen had access to..."
"...And you think that they might have been corrupted by using it too much." Hikari stated, finishing up Takeru's sentence. Tailmon looked up at her partner.
"Exactly." Takeru said. "I know that's what will happen to me if I Dark Evolve Patamon too often."
"Then why do you even risk it happening?" Iori asked.
"Because my powers, what I would be using to correctly evolve Angemon into his perfect level of Holy Angemon, are busy keeping the Dark Seed embedded in my neck at bay." Takeru said. "While the power to Dark Evolve Patamon mostly comes from the Dark Seed, and makes it stronger, it's still better than removing the protection all together."
"But why would this Kaiser attack our apartment complex?" Chizuru asked, changing the subject.
Miyako decided to answer her sister's question. "Probably was trying to have us killed." She said bitterly. Everyone, except Takeru and Patamon, looked over at her. "What? We're a potential threat to him. He would want us removed."
"That's probably the case." Takeru said. "After all, Vamdemon did attack Earth with the intention on killing Hikari." Takeru said, before adding. "No, I'm not talking about my Patamon's Dark Evolution." He said, looking over at Chizuru. "Either way, it's up to the chosen we currently have to stop him."
"So what do we do now?" Hikari asked. Takeru turned to Taichi.
"You're supposed to be the leader." Takeru said. "What's your plan?" Taichi and Agumon were taken aback.
"I'm surprised you're asking me this." Taichi said. "I mean, I'm hardly qualified to be a leader now."
"Yeah." Agumon supplied. "We can't go to perfect, and you can."
Patamon snorted. "So you'd put your leadership with the guy who's partnered to the digimon who turns into the supposed-to-be evil vampire thing?" Everyone just looked over at him.
"So what's the plan?" Hikari asked.
"I guess we'll split into two groups." Taichi said.
"What do you mean?" V-mon asked.
"Hikari, Takeru, and the newer members of the chosen will spend their time fighting the Digimon Kaiser in the Digital World while the rest of us older chosen will stay on Earth." Taichi clarified.
"Why?" Daisuke asked, confused.
"I get the idea." Yamato said, before explaining. "It's obvious that the Kaiser is going to have our family attacked in order to get to us."
"Duh." Takeru muttered under his breath. Yamato ignored him.
"So we should have some chosen here to defend against any more attacks." Yamato finished. "And anyway, without any chosen here Japan could be taken over in a couple of days if the Kaiser sent an army."
"So who'll be the leader of the new chosen?" Sora asked.
"I nominate Hikari-chan!" Daisuke called out immediately, causing Hikari to blush.
"That's a good idea." Miyako said after considering it for a few seconds.
"I can live with that." Iori stated.
Hikari paled. It was one thing to hear Daisuke suggest that she should be leader, but it was another for other people to say so as well.
"Are there any objections to Hikari becoming the leader of the second Odaiba group of chosen?" Taichi asked.
"I don't want to be leader!" Hikari exclaimed. "I have enough responsibility as it is."
"Better you than me." Takeru said. Hikari looked at him. "I'm not good for the leadership role. I'm infected with a Dark Seed, the same thing that turned Ryo into the Digimon Kaiser. If I, or Ken were the group's leader, we could turn evil and try to kill you at any moment."
"Now that's reassuring." Tailmon said dryly. Hikari sighed.
"Fine, I'll do it." Hikari said. 'Why do I have a feeling of dread?'
Meanwhile, Oikawa was watching Hiroki talk with his father Hida Chikara, and his wife from on a computer screen.
That police officer will have to be eliminated you know. A voice said from within Oikawa's mind.
"What do you mean?" Oikawa asked the voice. If anyone were watching him at that point, they would've thought he was insane.
That man is far too much of a threat on Earth. Guns actually work surprisingly well on lower class digimon. When you add Japan's military tanks into the mess, not to mention the United States Nuclear Weapons cache, it isn't going to be good. You want our plans to succeed, do you not?
"I do. But why must Hiroki die in order to do that?" Oikawa said.
He's a respectable police officer. The voice answered. He
also has word in the government. He'll also be likely to believe his
son and convince the governments to work against us. Human militaries
and an army of chosen would be a slaughter to our forces, or worse, a
complete stalemate.
"But how would that stop someone other than Hiroki from getting the governments to work together?"
By the time that someone else is able to convince the governments of Earth, it shall already be too late to do anything. But Hida Hiroki must die.
"I refuse!" Oikawa shouted, getting out of the chair. "I will not kill my best friend! This plan was for him as much as it is for me!" Suddenly black lighting coursed around his body as he cried out in pain and fell to the floor. A few minutes later the man brought himself up.
You know what you'll have to do.
"Yes. I'll kill Hiroki myself." And Oikawa started grinning evilly.
-------------------------------
"Fool." Kairuto stated as he and his other chosen allies watched this from the bleak world that they all transported to.
"I'm surprised any one would be stupid enough to take in that guys spirit." Rei remarked.
"Most humans and digimon do have a tendency to be stupid." The viral Piyomon remarked.
"It doesn't matter. All that matters to me is to do the job and kill Taichi." Neo said coldly.
"Neo-oniisan..." Rei said trailing off. 'He's going crazy.' Rei thought. 'I'm not a pillar of sanity either, but really, Neo's been remembering things that didn't happen. First off, since when did Taichi ever have a digimon that evolved to V-dramon.'
"A leader should be less focused on personal vendettas." Sigma said.
"Really. Yes, we know you're going to kill Taichi and his Agumon in the most gruesome way imaginable, you don't have to remind us every twelve seconds!" the Tentomon shouted, getting a glare from both his partner and Neo.
"Right now we should figure out what's happening with our other teammate." Kairuto's Patamon supplied. "Like, why he isn't here with us right now."
"Not to mention why he's calling himself 'Kuro' now." Neo's Agumon added.
"That's probably because he's supposed to be dead." Rei said. "You know, having your head chopped off usually kills people."
"It wouldn't kill me." Kairuto stated, trying to disprove Rei's claim. Rei just gave him a look that said he was crazy.
"Since when were you ever usual?" she asked, glaring at him.
Kairuto and Patamon just shrugged, before Kairuto pulled his arm behind his head, shifting it into a flesh colored blade before turning it back into his arm.
Rei just groaned, placing her head in her hand.
Takeru walked into the main office of the police station, seeing Hida Hiroki behind a desk. "So... what exactly do you want to interrogate me about?" Takeru asked coldly. Patamon was forced to stay with the other members of the chosen. That really didn't bother Takeru, as he was the last one being interrogated. Hiroki eyes the sword at Takeru's side.
"I'm afraid I'm going to have to take that." Hiroki said. Takeru looked over at the police officer.
"I doubt you'd be able to get it off of me." Takeru replied coldly. "Besides, if I had any intention of killing anyone in here that person would be dead by now."
"I'm still afraid I'll have to take..." Takeru interrupted Hiroki, revealing that the sword was a shinnai. A bamboo sword.
"This sword is a practice sword." Takeru said. "I trust you still won't find the need to take it."
"Name?" Hiroki asked, reluctantly dropping the subject of the weapon.
"Takaishi Takeru." The blond haired swordsman said, sheathing his sword. Hiroki blinked.
"Did you say you're name was Takaishi Takeru?" Hiroki asked.
"That's correct." Takeru said, in that same calm voice that seemed to show that he wasn't lying.
Hiroki was pretty confused at this point. 'He's only supposed to be eleven years old.' Hiroki thought. 'How the hell is he that calm?'
"You've been missing for some time." Hiroki commented. "Do you mind telling me where you've been?"
"In an alternate dimension called the Digital World fighting against the bastard who has plans to take over said alternate world and then take over earth." Takeru replied, almost instantly.
"Do you really expect me to believe that?" Hiroki asked, causing Takeru to sigh.
"Nope." Takeru said. "Funny thing with most people. You tell them the truth, and they don't believe you."
"I guess I'll be surprising you then." Hiroki said. "I believe you." Takeru's eyes actually widened at this statement. "Now, what exactly do you know about this guy's plans?"
"So what do we do now?" Iori asked, looking around the area. Armadimon, along with Hawkmon and V-mon were currently munching on a chocolate bar that Mrs. Hida had purchased for them. While she was originally against feeding some strange creatures that she didn't know about until a few hours ago, she certainly changed her mind once V-mon started head butting the candy machine.
"I guess we wait for Takeru." Hikari answered.
"But are we splitting up into two groups as soon as Takeru's done or are we going to all go to the Digital World before we decide anything?" Piyomon asked.
"I guess we should all go into the Digital World beforehand." Miyako said. Chizuru looked over at her sister.
"Wait! What makes you think I'm going to let you go into a strange world, where I can't be certain you're safe!" Chizuru shouted out. Everyone looked over towards her, and Jun rose out of her seat turning to Daisuke.
"And what makes you think I'm letting you go either!" Jun shouted. Daisuke blinked.
"So we can save the world and not have everyone on the planet get killed?" Both Daisuke and Miyako said weakly.
"But why do you have to do it?!" Jun and Chizuru exclaimed. Yamato looked at both of them.
"We don't know exactly what led to Miyako and Daisuke becoming chosen." Yamato said. "Or what led to any of us becoming chosen for that matter."
"I don't want Iori to have to go either." Mrs. Hida supplied. "But if someone else could do his job, I'm sure they would've been chosen instead."
"Besides. You can't deny them this. It's their destiny." Chikara supplied.
"But that still doesn't mean it's right!" Both of the girls shouted out. Chizuru began sobbing.
"I wouldn't be able to live with myself if Miyako were hurt or killed. Both my older sister and parents are dead because of this, I don't want to lose anyone else."
Before anything else could be said, a computer in the room started shooting light.
"What's going on?!" Sora exclaimed before a gold and a silver light shot out of the computer. The gold light shot into Chizuru's right hand, while the silver light shot into Jun's.
Daisuke's eyes widened. 'Aw crap.' Daisuke thought as the light in his sister's hand faded away, revealing a digivice almost identical to Taichi and the others'. Chizuru's digivice happened to be similar to Hikari's only it had gold grips.
"What happened?" Chizuru asked, looking at the device. Suddenly Takeru and Hiroki entered the room, and saw that Chizuru and Jun both had digivices.
"So, you're both chosen now." Takeru remarked, shaking his head. "I really should've expected this." Hiroki entered the room at this point.
"You're all free to go." Hiroki said. Before anyone could say anything in response to this, a scream was heard before a loud 'roar' of "Fire Blast!"
Takeru looked over towards Patamon before he and the small digimon started running outside. The other chosen and digimon followed the two of them, before the three adults did as well.
When the group got outside, the sight that they saw was not something that the newest chosen and non-chosen were used to.
Three large dinosaur digimon were around the area, setting fire to the near by buildings. One of them happened to be red, with green spikes on his back and tail. Its stomach area was white. This was Tyranomon.
The second dinosaur was a much larger bulkier version of Tyranomon with that was black instead of red. Red stripes were over his body, and there was an X shaped scar on his upper chest. This was Master Tyranomon. "Destroy the Chosen!" He shouted out in a rage like voice.
The third dinosaur was the same size and shape as Tyranomon, only it had black skin like Master Tyranomon, not to mention it looked much more fearsome than its red counterpart. This was Dark Tyranomon.
"So... Two Adults and a Perfect." Takeru mused, looking over at Patamon, before sighing. "Take care of Master Tyranomon." Takeru ordered. Patamon started glowing in dark purple light.
"Patamon Dark Evolve!" Patamon shouted as he quickly changed into a humanoid vampire digimon. "Vamdemon!"
Takeru grabbed his neck in pain, before looking over towards the others. "You guys figure out how to battle against the other two digimon. Vamdemon will keep Master Tyranomon busy."
"Alright." Hikari said reluctantly, before turning towards the others, and the digimon. "Are you guys ready?" she asked.
The digimon all nodded their heads, while Miyako, Iori, Daisuke, Taichi, Yamato, and Sora raised their digivices. "Good." Hikari said.
"Digimental Up!" Hikari, Daisuke, Miyako, and Iori shouted, bright lights shooting towards their digimon.
"V-mon Armor Evolve!" V-mon shouted as the energy from Daisuke's digivice hit him. His shape quickly changed into that of a humanoid dragon wearing fire decorated armor. "Burning with Courage, Fladramon!"
"Tailmon Armor Evolve!" Tailmon shouted as the light from Hikari's digivice hit her. She stood on all fours, her body changing shape, wings growing out of her back as white armor appeared on her body, and a silver facemask covered her face. "The light of smiles, Nefertimon!"
"Hawkmon Armor Evolve!" Hawkmon shouted, getting hit by the blast of energy from Miyako's digivice. His body grew an extra pair of legs as a helmet appeared over his head and he grew in size. "Flapping with Wings of Love, Holsmon!"
"Armadimon Armor Evolve!" Armadimon shouted, getting blasted by the yellow blast of light from Iori's digivice. Armadimon's body quickly changed into that of a large two-legged insect wearing yellow armor and with drills coming out of his body. "The Wisdom of Steel, Digmon!"
Mrs. Hida looked puzzled at Armadimon's transformation. "Doesn't he turn into a large dinosaur thing?"
"It's an alternate evolution." Hikari explained.
"Don't leave us out of this!" Gabumon exclaimed.
"Yeah. I'll teach this Tyranomon a lesson!" Agumon shouted.
Taichi and Yamato looked over at their digimon. "Yeah. Let's not let this drag on." Taichi said, before bluish-white light shot out from his digivice.
Agumon began glowing in white light. "Agumon Evolve!" Agumon shouted before his body began growing. Soon Agumon was in a familiar form of a giant orange dinosaur with brown stripes. "Greymon!"
"We can't let Taichi and the others do everything!" Sora exclaimed.
"Right. I'm ready to stop these guys!" Piyomon shouted, taking up to the air as light shot out from Sora's digivice.
Piyomon was bathed in white light. "Piyomon Evolve!" Piyomon's form shifted into that of a large bird made out of red flames. "Birdramon!"
Yamato gripped his digivice. "Show them what you're made of Gabumon!"
"Will do Yamato!" Gabumon shouted, running towards the enemy as he was bathed in white light from Yamato's digivice. "Gabumon Evolve!" Gabumon quickly became a large blue and white furred wolf. "Garurumon!"
The armor level digimon charged towards Dark Tyranomon, while the adult level digimon charged towards Tyranomon.
"Fire Blast!" Dark Tyranomon shouted, aiming towards the armor digimon as he fired a blast of flame from his mouth towards the two armor digimon that were on the ground. Fladramon and Digimon dodged the blast of flame, before the armored dragon pulled his fist back, fire gathering around it as he charged towards the large black dinosaur.
"Knuckle Fire!" Fladramon thrust his arm forward, the flames almost instantly hitting the adult level digimon in the chest, knocking him back.
"Digmon! Now!" Fladramon shouted, jumping out of the way. Dark Tyranomon was confused at this action, but it soon became apparent once he saw Digimon appear in front of his, the bug digimon's drills spinning.
"Big Crack!" Digimon shouted, thrusting his drills at Dark Tyranomon's body. The large viral dinosaur digimon reacted quickly, spinning around, hitting the bug digimon with his tail, and breaking the armor digimon's concentration. Fire gathered in the black dinosaur's mouth.
"Fire Blast!" Dark Tyranomon shot a fireball at Digmon, sending the armor digimon crashing into the ground. Dark Tyranomon seemed to be preparing to fire off his attack again, but three fireballs to the back quickly got his attention as he turned towards Fladramon.
Nefertimon and Holsmon circled around Dark Tyranomon in the sky, the latter of which started spinning in the air, a cyclone of wind gathering around him. "Tempest Wing!" Holsmon shouted, the wing leaving his body and hitting Dark Tyranomon in the back.
A pink column of light appeared above Nerfertimon, a large tablet appearing above her head. "Rosetta Stone!" The tablet shot towards Dark Tyranomon, who seemed to realize it just in time, dodging the tablet before it collided with his head.
Meanwhile, Tyranomon was busy firing attacks of flame at Greymon, who battled them away with his tail, as Garurumon was circling behind the red dinosaur.
"Fox Fire!" Garurumon shot off a blue blast of flame from his mouth. The force of the flames knocked Tyranomon back slightly, allowing Greymon to gather up flame for an attack.
"Mega Flame!" Greymon shouted, firing off a blast of flame from his mouth towards Tyranomon. Taichi looked over towards his digimon, noticing that the fireball was much smaller than it should have been. Yamato noticed this as well, turning towards Taichi.
"Is something wrong with Greymon?" Yamato asked.
"I don't know." Taichi responded. Hiroki looked over towards the battlefield, knowing that he wouldn't be able to do any good.
Birdramon folded her arms in front of her body, flames gathering around them in greater quantities. "Meteor Wing!" The firebird spread her wings, fire raining down from the sky at Tyranomon, hitting the dinosaur on the back.
"This isn't good." Hikari remarked. "Most of our digimon are fighting an enemy of the same element that they are. This is going to be a long fight."
Oikawa watched the battle from on top of a building. 'I'll save Hiroki's death for later.' The black haired man thought. 'The chosen are more important to kill.' He was lucky that Kairuto was able summon three digimon from the Digital World. Why he and his allies didn't come to kill the chosen themselves, he didn't have any idea, although this really seemed like they might succeed.
Oikawa didn't notice that a small brown and purple two legged digimon with smoke coming out of where its two hind legs would be running by towards the battle. A gold ring was clasped around its left leg.
"Master Claw!" Master Tyranomon swiped at Vamdemon with his claw. The vampire digimon noticed this and dodged the large limb, a red energy whip forming in his hand.
"Bloody Stream!" Vamdemon shouted, wrapping his energy whip around Master Tyranomon's arm.
"You damn virus!" Master Tyranomon shouted, red fire gathering around his mouth. "Master Fire!" A large ball of flame went speeding into Vamdemon's chest, knocking the Vampire digimon back. Vamdemon cursed as his energy whip vanished, before thrusting his arms in front of his body.
"Night Raid!" Many bats shot out of Vamdemon's arms, gathering together in a black blast of energy, colliding with Master Tyranomon's chest. Master Tyranomon quickly recovered from the blast. Vamdemon's eyes widened, noticing how easily the digimon had recovered.
'He should have stumbled back for a longer amount of time.' Vamdemon thought, dodging another attack from Dark Tyranomon. 'This guy seems much stronger than he should be.' "Bloody—"
"Master Fire!" Master Tyranomon fired off another large ball of fire, hitting Vamdemon in the chest, interrupting his attack. The vampire digimon growled in annoyance.
'Where did this digimon come from!?' The vampire perfect level digimon thought in his mind, clearly confused by the digimon's power. 'Is it possible that he's actually an Ultimate?'
Greymon was tired. That was very evident, as his attacks kept getting smaller and smaller. The Tyranomon noticed this, firing a ball of flame at Garurumon to keep the wolf digimon busy as he charged towards Greymon, his claws raised.
Birdramon realized this too late. "Greymon! Look out!"
"Slash Nail!" Tyranomon clawed at Greymon, leaving a very deep gash on the Adult digimon's chest. Greymon howled in pain as Tyranomon hit Greymon with his tail, knocking the chosen dinosaur digimon back.
"Greymon!" Taichi yelled out in panic as his partner started glowing white before devolving back into Koromon. Taichi ran out, and grabbed his partner.
"Are you alright Koromon?" Taichi asked, worried. Koromon grimaced. "I'm fine Taichi, just tired." And with that, Koromon closed his eyes.
"Meteor Wing!" Birdramon fired off the flames from her wings at Tyranomon again, who just dodged the blast, before turning towards the flying digimon. "Fire Breath!" A large ball of flame shot out from Tyranomon's mouth, hitting Birdramon in the chest, causing the flying bird of fire to fall to the ground, causing a huge crater to form in the street, before she reverted back to Piyomon.
"Piyomon, hang in there!" Sora shouted, running towards her digimon.
"This isn't good." Chizuru stated the obvious.
"But what can we do, we don't have our partners." Jun said. "I feel so useless." Suddenly something caught Jun's eye. "What's that!?" She exclaimed, seeing a small digimon walking towards her. Unknown to anyone, this was the same digimon that Oikawa didn't notice before.
"I'm Bakumon!" The small floating digimon replied energetically. "And your name's Jun, right?"
"How did you know that?" Jun asked, confused. Bakumon blinked.
"That's a good question." Bakumon stated. "All I know is that I've been waiting for someone my whole life."
Takeru noticed what was going on. "I guess you've found your partner." Takeru said calmly. Jun blinked.
"Really?" she asked. Anything else that could've been said was interrupted as a ball of fire sped towards Jun. Jun's eyes widened.
Bakumon noticed the incoming fire. "Jun!" He couldn't let this happen. He had just met his partner, and wasn't going to allow her to die.
Jun's digivice shot out a bright bluish-white light.
Bakumon jumped in front of Jun as he white light consumed him. "Bakumon Evolve!" Bakumon shouted, as the flames collided with him, being nullified by the light of evolution. Bakumon's form became humanoid. When the light faded, Bakumon had become a humanoid digimon around the size of an eight-year-old child. He had brown hair, and green eyes. He wore a strange yellow and red body suit, along with a dark blue cape, clasped together with a skull button. A blue hat with a skull decoration was on his head. He carried a staff with a sun shaped top in his right hand. "Wizarmon!"
Jun looked on at her partner in amazement. "Wow..." Jun said, trailing off. Hikari looked over at the new digimon and gasped.
"Wizarmon?" Hikari questioned weakly.
"We'll talk later!" Wizarmon shouted, jumping near Tyranomon.
"This won't stop me!" Tyranomon shouted. "Fire Breath!" Tyranomon fired a blast of flame at Wizarmon, who held out his hand, a barrier forming around his body, shielding him from the flames.
"My turn!" Wizarmon exclaimed. "Magic Game!" Wizarmon vanished, before appearing behind the red dinosaur digimon. But instead of one Wizarmon, there were four of them. All of the Wizarmon pointed their staffs towards the dinosaur digimon. "Thunder Cloud!" Lighting shot out of each of the wizard's staffs, causing the dinosaur digimon to yelp in pain, before swing his tail at the four digimon. One of the Wizarmon jumped up into the air as the rest vanished.
"Thunder Cloud!" Wizarmon pointed his staff at the Tyranomon as he fell back down to the earth. Lighting shot out of the staff, hitting the digimon in the chest. "Garurumon! Attack!"
"Right!" Garurumon shouted, charging towards Tyranomon. "Fox Fire!" Blue flames shot out of Garurumon's mouth, blasting the Tyranomon full force, knocking him into a building. Tyranomon charged towards Garurumon, swiping his claw at the wolf.
Garurumon dodged. "Fox Fire!" Blue flames shot out of the wolf digimon's mouth.
"Fire Breath!" Tyranomon fired off another blast of fire from his mouth, splitting Garurumon's fire and hitting the wolf digimon in the jaw, knocking him to the ground. Garurmon devolved into Gabumon.
Yamato started to move towards his digimon, but Takeru grabbed him, and surprisingly pulled him back.
"You shouldn't put yourself in danger." Takeru said.
"What are you talking about!" Yamato shouted at his brother, who was unaffected.
"If you go after Gabumon now you will die." Takeru said. "Let Wizarmon distract Tyranomon."
"Thunder Cloud!" Wizarmon shouted, blasting lighting in Tyranomon's mouth. Tyranomon gasped in pain before bursting into black specks.
Jun's eyes surprisingly didn't widen.
Takeru looked over at that battle. "Or Wizarmon could kill him." Takeru said, releasing his brother, who quickly sped off towards his digimon.
Meanwhile, Fladramon and the other armor digimon were battling against Dark Tyranomon. Fladramon was suddenly consumed in flames.
"Fire Rocket!" Fladramon shouted, speeding forwards towards Dark Tyranomon, slamming the viral adult level digimon in the chest, pushing him back.
Holsmon's eyes started glowing red as he flew behind Dark Tyranomon. "Red Sun!" Two red beams shot out of Holsmon's eyes, hitting the dinosaur digimon in the back.
"Gold Rush!" Digmon shot his drills at Dark Tyranomon's head, which was blasted with great force.
"Rosetta Stone!" Nefertimon flung another stone tablet at Dark Tyranomon, hitting the digimon in the head, knocking him out. Fladramon moved towards the digimon, raising his glove, fire gathering around his arm.
"Knuckle Fire!" Fladramon shouted as he brought his arm through Dark Tyranomon's head, causing the large dinosaur to burst into data. Suddenly all four armor digimon started glowing as Holsmon and Nefertimon landed, before they all devolved back to their Baby II forms, with the exception of Nefertimon, who became a peach colored puppy-like digimon called Plotmon, which was her child form.
"Why did we devolve?" Upamon asked as the four digimon made their way back to their partners.
"Night Raid!" Vamdemon shouted, firing off a blast of black energy made up of bats at Master Tyranomon, who actually was able to dodge the attack.
"Master Claw!" Master Tyranomon charged at Vamdemon, actually slashing the dark evolved Perfect digimon across the chest.
"Thunder Cloud!" Wizarmon shouted, firing off a bolt of lighting at Master Tyranomon, deciding to attack the only standing opponent, although the attack didn't do much.
"Darn it!" Wizarmon shouted, as Master Tyranomon turned towards him, fire gathering in the large perfect level digimon's mouth.
"Master Fire!" And with that, Master Tyranomon fired off a fireball at Wizarmon, who put up a shield just in time to block the attack.
Vamdemon lifted his arm, a red energy whip appearing in his hand. "Bloody Stream!" Vamdemon thrust the whip forward, it wrapping around the perfect digimon's neck. "Attack now!" Vamdemon shouted.
Wizarmon obeyed the order, dropping his magic shield, before pointing his staff at the large perfect digimon. "Thunder Cloud!" A bolt of lighting shot out from the wizard digimon's staff, hitting the dinosaur in the throat, causing him to growl out in pain.
"You'll pay for that!" Master Tyranomon shouted, moving his neck in such a way that he actually managed to throw Vamdemon into Wizarmon. Both digimon started glowing, before devolving into their child level forms.
Takeru looked on at the battle. "This isn't going well."
Master Tyranomon looked around. "Now I'll destroy you chosen!" Master Tyranomon shouted, before his eyes rested on Hikari.
Taichi noticed this, clenching his fist. 'I'm not letting this guy kill Hikari or the others!'
"I'm not going to let you do that!" Taichi shouted. Master Tyranomon turned towards the goggle head, noticing the small baby digimon in his arms.
"You think you're going to stop me with a baby digimon!?" Master Tyranomon exclaimed.
Taichi inwardly groaned. He couldn't believe that he forgot how injured Koromon was. 'Why do I act before thinking!?' Taichi mentally scolded himself.
Suddenly a pale blue light shot out from the sky, hitting Taichi and Koromon, bathing them in it's light. Koromon opened his eyes.
"What's happening Taichi?"Koromon asked, confused. Then the two of them noticed something.
Everything was completely gray, and frozen. Except for the light, Taichi, and Koromon.
"What's going on Taichi?" Koromon asked.
Do you wish for more power? An odd voice asked. Taichi looked around, not seeing anyone.
"Yes." Taichi said. "But who are you?"
Who I am doesn't matter. But are you willing to do anything for the power that I can give you?
Taichi paused for a second. "If it means that I can save the others, than yes." Taichi said.
Are you sure? The voice asked. If I give you this power, there will be no going back. Saiba Neo asked for additional power from another source, and it ended up driving him insane. While the power that he dabbed into was dark, that doesn't mean that you won't suffer similar effects. You still have a chance to back out.
"I'm ready." Taichi said. "I'll deal with any of the effects your talking about. Just give me the power to save my friends!" The blue light intensified, as Koromon felt his strength renewed, quickly jumping out of his partner's arms and onto the group, before evolving into Agumon. Taichi's digivice shot off light and Agumon was filled by it.
"Agumon Evolve!" Agumon quickly turned back into his adult level form. "Greymon!"
Suddenly two shapes appeared in front of him and Greymon. Taichi instantly recognized one of them as himself, wearing the outfit that he wore during his first trip into the Digital World, only that he had on a golden cape. This clone of him also wore something that seemed to be a digivice on his right wrist. The second figure happened to be a digimon around the same size and shape as Greymon, only it was blue and white, and had a "V" shaped patched of blue skin on his white stomach area. His head happened to have two large horns coming out of the back of it and the front.
The large Greymon like creature looked at Greymon. "So, I could've become him? What win ratio would I have needed? Two Percent?" the digimon asked. "I can see why they need my help."
The other Taichi looked over towards the large blue and white Greymon thing. "You know perfectly well that win ratio has nothing to do with the evolution to adult."
"But to think I could've become a weak Greymon." The blue dinosaur whined. The alternate Taichi sighed.
"Get used to it." The look a like looked over towards Taichi. "Are you ready?" He asked. Taichi then realized that he was the source of that mysterious voice.
"Yes." Taichi said. Suddenly the alternate Taichi and Greymon thing burst into light, before shooting off towards the human and digimon. As the light that was the alternate Taichi shot off into Taichi's chest, Taichi's digivice flew up into the air, before shifting into the exact same digivice that his doppelganger had. It attached itself to his wrist. Taichi noted that it was blue, and had writing around the screen. The digivce was circular shape at the top, and the bottom extended down in a connected oval shape. Three blue buttons were on the side of the new version of the digivice.
The light from the large blue dinosaur shot into Greymon, causing him to howl in pain. Suddenly he stopped, seemingly taking all of the energy into his body, completely unharmed.
Suddenly everything had color again. The chosen all blinked, seeing that Koromon had quickly evolved back into Greymon almost instantly.
Hikari also noticed a new device on her brother's wrist, his old digivice nowhere in sight. "Onnisan? What happened to your digivice?"
Taichi apparently didn't here his sister, or he chose to ignore her. He was looking over towards Master Tyranomon.
"What's gotten into him?" Sora asked out loud. Master Tyranomon just laughed.
"So you managed to re-evolve your digimon to Adult." The large dinosaur sneered. "What do you think that one Adult digimon could possibly do against me?"
Suddenly Taichi's digivice let out a bright orange light, before Taichi's chest shot out blue light. Both lights formed into one beam and shot off to Greymon. Greymon started growing.
"Greymon Super Evolve!" Greymon shouted, blue tattered wings shooting out of his back. Red hair grew over his neck as his head was incased in a metal helmet. His left arm soon became a large metallic claw as the dinosaur grew four times his normal size. "Metal Greymon!"
"He somehow evolved into his Perfect form!" Tailmon exclaimed, confused. "But how did he manage to do that?" she asked. No one, not even Takeru and Patamon had an answer for her.
Master Tyranomon looked confused at seeing a second perfect level digimon in the battlefield. 'How can this be? I was told that the only perfect I would have to fight would be a Vamdemon, who I defeated easily enough. So how did this happen?' "So you evolved! Big deal!" And Master Tyranomon suddenly charged towards Metal Greymon.
Taichi looked over at the charging dinosaur digimon. Takeru couldn't be sure, but it seemed like Taichi was trying to concentrate on Master Tyranomon. Takeru looked over towards the perfect level dinosaur, before realizing what Taichi was seeing. He then looked over towards Patamon.
'I'm surprised he lost.' Takeru thought. 'That Master Tyranomon's fighting like he doesn't know how to use his form.'
"Metal Greymon!" Taichi said suddenly. "Guard against his attacks!"
"Like that will matter!" Master Tyranomon shouted, raising his right arm. "Master Claw!" The large dinosaur digimon swiped down with his clawed arm, only to be blocked by Metal Greymon's huge arm.
Master Tyranomon's eyes widened. "How?"
"Attack him now!" Taichi shouted. The chest plate on Metal Greymon's chest opened. "Giga Destroyer!" Two missiles flew out of Metal Greymon's chest, hitting the black dinosaur perfect in the chest, sending him flying.
Taichi raised his wrist up, pressing a button on the side of the digivice. Suddenly words appeared on the screen.
Master TyranomonPerfect Level
KI Level: 406
Vaccine Dinosaur Digimon
Attacks: Master Fire, Master Claw
Suddenly more words appeared on the digivice's screen.
Master Fire and Master Claw attacks added to Attack cache.
"I wonder how strong Metal Greymon is in comparison." Taichi said, pressing a different button on the digivice. He didn't even seem to notice that he shouldn't have been able to know how to use the digivice.
Metal Greymon Perfect LevelKI Level: 436
Vaccine Cyborg Digimon
Attacks: Giga Destroyer, Trident Arm
'Metal Greymon's just a little bit stronger.' Taichi mused. 'He must be rusty. It's been three years since he last used that form.'
Master Tyranomon picked himself off of the ground. His chest area had a bloody gash in it. "Damn you..." The large dinosaur snarled, obviously feeling a great amount of pain from that attack. "I...will...dest..."
Metal Greymon charged towards Master Tyranomon, pulling his metal arm back. "Trident Arm!" The large cyborg dinosaur thrust his metallic arm forward into Master Tryanomon's head in mid sentence.
Sora winced, while most of the other chosen stared at Metal Greymon's brutality... Except for Takeru, who had seen stuff like this before (and often), and Taichi, who seemed to expect this.
Master Tyranomon burst into data. Metal Greymon stood straight, before devolving back into Agumon. Taichi turned towards the other members of his group, who stared at him.
"That didn't end well." Oikawa stated out loud, clenching his fist. He would have to devise another plan. Especially when it came to killing Hiroki.
"But one thing is certain." Oikawa said in a calm voice. "Hiroki dies tonight."
End Chapter 6
If you're wondering about the KI levels that I mentioned, I got them by taking the average of the three attacks on their cards.
Before anyone mentions it, yes, that was the V-tamer version of Taichi and his digimon Zero the V-dramon. Of course, things didn't exactly happen as they did in the actual comic. Maybe I'll write a V-tamer AU someday.
shadowblack: Yes, Neo, Rei, Sigma, Kairuto, and Kuro were the first chosen children, like Takeru's been speculating. I'm glad someone actually noticed. The reason that I used two original characters for this group instead of more V-tamer characters was that Kairuto and Kuro had already made an appearance before I decided to use the V-tamer characters for the original chosen. Besides, Kuro's job technically couldn't have been done without an original character.
Alforce Zero: As Takeru says this chapter; the problem with Dark Evolution is what it does to himself, not Patamon. And I couldn't have Iori or Miyako have their digimon achieve the perfect level anywhere near this soon.
Anime obsessed fan: Neo's pretty much insane at this point. He is referring to what happened in this multiverse's V-tamer adventure, although he didn't actually go through it. There are also only five dark chosen, unless if you count Ryo. The reason they had the partners that mirrored Taichi, Sora, Koushiro, Yamato, and Takeru was because Toei decided that.
