Assistant: Well it has been decided. According to Renamon, Rika is supposed to arrive sometime tomorrow, and as soon as she gets settled in, Renamon and Ronomon are going to have their fight. I, unlike everyone else, am not looking forward to this fight. I guess I have no choice though. So, before we get chapter 12 under way, we have to do the ever annoying disclaimer. I don't own digimon or the two shows where I get my concepts of alchemy and elemental bending. Those two shows are Full Metal Alchemist and Avatar, The Last Air Bender. Now, I hope you all enjoy it; it is part of the setup for the final fight.
Chapter 12
Hypnos mission statement, rewritten
While the tamers were having a nice relaxing evening Ronomon and Yamachi were toiling endlessly in the Hypnos building. They had the whole staff there, finishing the last bit of work on setting up the Hypnos network. Ronomon plugged in the last cord as Yamachi began the start up procedures. By 3:00 the Hypnos building was back up to full operating standards. Yamachi quickly began to coordinate the staff in trying to determine if Ronomon's fears were true; that there had been one more bioemerge last night, namely SatinRenamon. Riley was yelled from her observation chair, "Yamachi, we have found an old digital signature. According to the computer it bioemerged around 12:15 last night, and if the computer can be trusted it says it bioemerged at the household of the Nonakas."
Ronomon had gone under the dome where all Hypnos information was streamed and asked, "Is their any way to identify its name."
"We can't, but I've sent all the information we do have down to one of the floor monitors." Riley replied. Ronomon quickly went to the floor monitor where Yamachi was already examining the information.
Ronomon pushed him aside and said, "Move, I need to check something." Ronomon typed something into the computer and the screen flashed some new information. Yamachi looked at the screen to see that it was reading off 8 different values. He noticed the second one was significantly larger the other 7 put together. He saw Ronomon now had his hand on his head. He turned to Yamachi and said, "These eight values represent the elemental balance in the digimon that bioemerged. You have no doughtily noticed that the second value from the top is larger then the rest by a large margin. Well that represents the elemental force of shadow, and I only know of one digimon that has this sort of imbalance in her body."
Yamachi looked at the screen and said, "So you're saying, it was SatinRenamon."
Ronomon turned his back to the computer monitor, and said, "It may or may not be her, but we have to assume the worse. Yamachi, we need to modify some of your digimon detection systems. We may be able to find out where she is hiding, before she has a chance to make her move."
Yamachi said, "Riley, come down here, I need you to help me reformat some of our sensors. Ronomon is right, if what he says about SatinRenamon is true, we need to find her quickly." Yamachi then turned to his staff of scientists and computer programmers and said, "Well what are you waiting for? Get back to work. We needed to know where SatinRonomon was yesterday." The staff took this hint that Yamachi needed the project done as soon as possible. The whole staff began to work like a hive of bees, working in almost perfect unison, trying to turn Hypnos from an internet monitoring agency into an agency that could hopefully find the mysterious SatinRenamon.
While the Hypnos building was buzzing with activity, a different force was at work under the city streets. In the flood tunnels, where the tamers had spent some time, a dark digimon worked in silence. Her black fur contrasted with dark purple cards allowed her to hide well in the dark tunnel. She had knocked out all of the electric lights. All that was illuminating the tunnel was a short row of 8 candles. The candles were glowing normally. The virus digimon just stared into the flames. When she watched the flames dance she seemed to forget the world. The flames seemed to spark a small fire of hope in her heart, trying to fight against the huge mass of evil that was contained in her body. She then reached out her paw and slowly closed it, and as her hand closed the 8 small flames shrank. When her paw finally clenched into a fist, it caused the 8 flames to extinguish. She then left the tunnel, going to begin her dark deeds. Once she had left the sight of the candles a strange wind blew. The wind blew and then, with no one there to see it, each of the candles came back to life, but now their flames were 8 different colors. Going from left to right the colors were white, black, red, light blue, dark blue, yellow, invisible, and brown. Each flame representing one of the elemental forces, either light, shadow, fire, ice, water, lightning, air, and earth. The flames then slowly shrank and disappeared, all except the white flame, the flame representing light.
By this time SatinRenamon was at the entrance to the tunnel. She quickly melted into a nearby shadow and reappeared in Shinjuku Park. It was still very cloudy out, but the moon had found a whole in the clouds and the park was bathed in the moon light. She had stopped by a large pond that was in the park. The moon was reflecting of the water and it was a scene of pure beauty, but none of this got through to SatinRenamon. She saw the whole thing, but never took notice of it. All that went through her mind was the images of two digimon, Ronomon and Renamon. She thought has the breeze kicked up, "Soon, very soon will I be able to destroy them, take their data, and become more powerful then the sovereign. Then I can take my revenge on them, and with them out of the way, the digital world will be mine, to do with as I please." She then disappeared, returning to the tunnel, waiting for the day when Ronomon would undo his spell, and make it so Renamon was within her grasp.
