Disclaimer: Dude why would a 14-year-old girl own digimon? If I owned it this fanfic would be airing on TV!

Chapter Six: The Battles Begin!

"Touch of Evil!" The attack cut through the air as Kouji was sent flying through a tree it breaking on impact. He panted heavily getting up on all fours trying hard to get back to his feet. He could feel the young girl nearby trembling more and more in fear and he felt Devimon approach him. The Loner struggled back up to his feet though his vision began to go blood trickling out of the corner of his mouth. Devimon sneered looking at the boy wondering how stubborn he was while the small Chacha cosplayer trembled looking up at Kouji wondering if he'd be okay.

"You just won't give up," Devimon growled before grabbing Kouji by the throat lifting him into the air. The young warrior of Light coughed as the air was sucked out of him. He clawed desperately at the devil-digimon's hands trying to get free. He gasped for air his lungs burning as small dots of black began to form over his eyes. Devimon laughed as the boy grew weaker and weaker his hands slowly dropping to the side his eyes slowly beginning to close.

'I'm, going to die...' Kouji thought as he felt all his energy vanish. He could feel no air and his lungs writhed in pain burning for air. 'I can't die but...'

Kouji's eyes slowly shut fully as he slipped into unconsciousness his body falling limp. However he heard one thing before he was fully taken by the darkness. Someone shouting 'Pyro Tornado'.

-

"Kouji!" Takuya, who was now Agunimon, shouted catching his friend before he hit the ground. Kouji's face had fallen pale from lack of air as Agunimon shook him hastily. There was no response from the boys' body leaving Agunimon to think the worse. He gulped slightly moving two fingers to Kouji's neck sighing slightly relieved. He still had a strong pulse and noticing the boy's chest still rising and falling gently, he was breathing. Agunimon picked Kouji up slowly lying the young warrior of Light near the small girl before standing up looking at Devimon angrily.

"Well, well well, I didn't expect to see the Warrior of Flame," Devimon stated smirking slightly Agunimon's narrowing.

"Yea and I didn't expect to see a digimon in the Human World! What do you want?"

"I was sent here to destroy you and the Child of Light, along with your little friends." Agunimon glared lightly. The digimon was sent here to kill Kouji and him. He could understand that but was it here to destroy the others? Cat, Kira, Tails and Hex? Why would it want to kill them? They had nothing to do with this... Right?

"You will kill no one! Go back to wherever you came from!" The Legendary warrior of Flame shouted looking at Devimon.

"I will be going no where child, say good night! Touch of Evil!" Agunimon yelped dodging barley as the small Chacha cosplayer covered Kouji as the attack flew over the two. Takuya looked over at them cursing slightly. He knew Devimon could simply attack the two children to force Agunimon to take a hit. This would not be good...

---

"That guy, he just, he just turned into Agunimon!" The Takuya cosplayer stated in bewilderment.

"Cat, Hex, Tails... Those were the real Takuya and Kouji wasn't it!?" Toni yelled looking at the three children who laughed nervously. Kira stared ahead towards the battle frowning worriedly.

'Takuya, Kouji...' She thought silently praying the two were all right.

"Hey wait a minute... Toni why are you dressed as a guy?" Cat asked though the question seemed rather stupid at the moment. She mostly just asked this question to change the subject.

"Cause Inuyasha rocks and he's a lot better then any other female anime character I could've cosplayed as." Toni stated looking at Cat and the others.

"Toni's a cross dresser! She's gone to the dark side!" Tails screamed as she and Cat laughed leaving Hex and Toni sweat-dropping greatly. Kira blinked watching as Hex, Tails and Cat teased Toni about being a guy before returning her gaze to the fight. She bit her lower lip in worry. She wished she could help Takuya and Kouji but she knew she'd just get in the way.

"Hey you guys are okay!" Came a shout as Tanya jogged over to the group in slight relief. "Wait, where's Takky and Kouji?"

"Their fighting, I don't know about Kouji but Takuya was able to spirit evolve." Hex stated as Tanya sighed a bit.

"Well, those two can take care of themselves... Hey did any of you see my cousin? She got separated from her mom and I'm worried beyond belief." The group stared at her. Maybe it was because they did not know Tanya could actually worry about someone so much. She stared at them frowning a bit. "I care about people okay? Have you seen my cousin or not!? She's dressed as Chacha from Akazukin Chacha."

"I haven't seen her."

"Ditto."

"I'll keep my eyes out for her."

"I'm sure she's fine Tanya, don't worry."

There was silence as Cat, Hex, Tails and the others tried to cheer Tanya up. They were sure the small girl was all right, though you readers are very aware that she is stuck within the battle. Kira watched them before looking towards the fight. She could only make out dim outlines of the fighters, one thing made her worry. She only saw the outlines of Devimon and Agunimon. Where was Kouji? She bit her lower lip thinking hard. Trying to rid the images of the worst-case scenario from her mind. Kira frowned wishing she could help before slowly picking up Cat's discarded boomerang. She knew she would not be able to help fight but she also knew there was a large possibility that Kouji was hurt. She could help get him out of the battlefield so Takuya could concentrate fully on fighting instead of worrying about Kouji. She nodded to herself slowly slinging the boomerang over her shoulder; she could use it as a shield. With this set in mind she gave a quick nod to herself taking off towards the battle making sure not to let the others see her. She didn't want to put them in danger.

'Kouji, Takuya please just be okay...' She thought as she made her way passed the people who were running away. Pushing her way towards the fight.

"Pyro Darts!" The shout from Agunimon came to her ears. She watched as the fire darts hit Devimon. There was a cry of pain from the devil digimon.

"You little brat! Evil Wing!" Agunimon yelped barely dodging the attack. He glanced over his shoulder quickly making sure Kouji and the little girl were all right. Kouji was still out cold and the Chacha cosplayer was shaking more in fear covering Kouji from the attacks. Takuya frowned mentally wanting desperately to get his friend and the young girl out of here but he knew as long as he was fighting he couldn't risk it. Devimon smirked slightly seeing the warrior of flames concern. "How about I take care of those two little children, that way you could concentrate more on the battle. Touch of Evil!"

"No!" Agunimon's eyes widened as he rushed forward trying to reach the two before the attack hit. The young Chacha cosplayer looked up but whimpered slightly seeing the attack head for them. She covered her head with her hands shaking more. This was it she was going to die. She heard the impact of the attack but, she didn't feel hurt at all. She opened her eyes slowly looking up. Kira kneeled in front of her holding the giant boomerang as a shield. Agunimon stood a few feet away relief and concern spreading across his face.

"Mental Note, ask Tanya how she made this boomerang so strong!" Kira said to herself still holding the boomerang looking at the Chacha cosplayer and the unconscious Kouji. She blinked looking again at the Chacha cosplayer remembering what Tanya had asked earlier. "Hey! Are you Tanya's cousin?"

"I-I have an older cousin na-named Tanya," the little girl stated wiping tears out of her eyes. Kira nodded looking at her as Devimon sent another attack at them. Kira braced herself holding the boomerang but stopped. The attack never hit them. She blinked turning her head to stare at Agunimon who was standing in front of her.

"Get, them out of here Kira," he spoke between gritted teeth. He had took the attack full on, so Kira and the other two would be okay. Kira looked up at him with worry but nodded slowly moving to Kouji's side wrapping one of his arms around her neck. She stood up slowly gently taking the Chacha cosplayers hand in hers. Agunimon watched as they ran off sighing a bit relieved.

"Are you ready to die boy?" Devimon asked as the warrior of flame turned around.

"I won't be the one dying Devimon, you are!" Agunimon shouted charging at Devimon. Fire engulfed his fist as he punched Devimon hard in the stomach. The champion demon digimon screeched in pain and surprise. Agunimon smirked jumping back avoiding an attack. "Take that. Pyro Darts!"

Kira sighed a bit hearing the shouts of battle behind her. She stopped running figuring it was safe to stop and catch her breathe. She set Kouji down as the small girl let go of her hand. The Chacha cosplayer looked at Kira unsure what to say still trembling in fear slowly kneeling down next to Kouji. Kira watched as the small girl shook him gently trying to get him to wake up.

"Mister? Hey, Mister please. Mister please wake up. Why won't he wake up?" The young girl turned her head looking at Kira worried. Kira couldn't help but sigh looking at the girl before Kouji.

"I donno, he'll wake up though. Hopefully soon," she stared at Kouji wishing he'd just wake up already. She sighed making a mental note to hit Kouji later for making her worry so much before looking back towards that battle.

"Kira!" Kira turned her head hearing her name seeing Tails running up to her. The young girl stopped in front of her doubling over panting heavily showing she had been running fast and for a long time.

"Tails, hey um, am I in trouble for wandering off?"

"Yes actually you are," Tails stated frowning a bit before looking at the Chacha cosplayer then Kouji frowning worriedly. "What happened to Kouji?"

"I donno when I came he was already out." Kira stated shaking her head as the Chacha cosplayer looked at Tails before Kouji.

"That thing beat him up, then it-it picked him up by his throat and choked him." Tails looked at the small girl before at Kouji running a hand through her bangs.

"Well he should wake up soon, until then though let's get outta here." Kira nodded in agreement as Tails and her each got the boy up the Chacha cosplayer following the two. There was silence in the area. The only sounds were the ones of the battle. Kira glanced over at Tails as they walked wandering one thing.

"Why'd you come after me? I mean not that I'm mad you did but..."

"I saw you walk off and figured you were probably gonna see what you could do. Hex and Cat didn't notice so I waited a few minutes to see if you would come back or not, when you didn't I snuck off when no one was looking. Figured you'd need a hand." Tails smiled looking at Kira before blinking hearing a soft groan emit from the unconscious boy. The two exchanged looks before stopping slowly laying Kouji down. The young Loner groaned moving a hand to his throat before recalling what had happened. He sat up rather fast surprising the three girls near him. The world seemed to spin for a moment as Kouji moved a hand to hold his head taking a few deep breathes relieved to be able to breathe. His eyes widened as he remembered Devimon looking around quickly.

"Devimon! Where is he!?" He snapped looking at Tails and Kira before around.

"Whoa, calm down Kouji, Takuya's taking care of Devimon ," Kira said trying to calm the Loner down. He looked at her slightly shocked at her comment.

"What!?"

"He was able to spirit evolve Kouji, just take it easy." Kira frowned looking at Kouji as he looked at her before towards the battle. "He'll be fine Kouji, Takuya's gonna cream that guy."

The Loner nodded still looking towards the battle as the little Chacha cosplayer looked at Kouji gently tugging his shirt. He turned his head to look at her as she looked at the ground twisting her skirt slightly.

"Um, I just wanted to thank you mister, you got hurt because I couldn't move fast enough. I'm sorry." Kouji looked at the little girl though he was relieved that she was all right, he had been afraid she'd get hurt after he passed out.

"Its okay, I'm glad you're alright, uh.."

"I'm Liza," the small girl said smiling a little looking up at Kouji.

"I'm Kouji, its nice to meet you Liza." Kira watched with Tails as the small girl, Liza, smiled at the Warrior of Light. Tails looked towards the battle silently hearing the shouts. She could only pray that Takuya was all right, though remembering what happened in Season One she wasn't sure. Kira looked towards the battle as well. She knew Takuya could hold his own against Devimon, but she was still worried. Kouji stared towards the battle slowly getting to his feet wincing slightly as he moved a hand to his side. Liza, Kira and Tails watched him each worried as he moved his other hand to his pocket. Kira knew immediately what he was going to do grabbing his wrist stopping him from pulling out his D-Scan.

"There is no way you are fighting Devimon!" She shouted looking at him as he looked at her.

"I can't let Takuya fight on his own!" He snapped pulling his arm out of her grip.

"Your in no condition to fight Kouji!"

"I can't let my friend fight by himself Kira! I have to help." There was silence, as the two stared at each other neither backing down. Liza and Tails dared not break the silence as they watch Kouji and Kira stare at each other.

"Kouji, I know that you want to help Takuya but he can handle Devimon by himself. You're in no condition to fight Kouji, so just sit this one out. Just believe in Takuya!" Kira looked at him sternly using a voice she normally only used to scold Cat. Kouji glared slightly looking at her his hands in fists.

"I have to help Kira..."

"Pyro Tornado!"

"Evil Wing!"

The two attacks collided sending dust everywhere. The spectators held their breaths as the dust slowly dwindled. Two figures were shown in the dying dust, one was standing over a fallen figure. One word echoed throughout the minds of the spectators 'no'. Data surrounded the figure of Agunimon revealing a weakened Takuya. He groaned slightly falling to the ground trying to get back to his feet. He felt so weak he could hardly more. The strain to spirit evolve in the human world had been too much for him at the moment, and to top it all off he had gotten hit pretty hard. Takuya groaned again opening his eyes before yelping barley rolling out of the way as Devimon tried to finish him. The Goggle-Head got to his feet quickly gripping his D-Scan as he dodged Devimon's attacks.

"Not good! Not good!" He mumbled jumping away from the attacks though felt Devimon's claw-like hand hit his right leg. Takuya fell to the ground thinking hurriedly his hand moving to the bag still attached to his leg not noticing the pain erupting from his right leg. He quickly drew one of the kunai knives out making a quick plan in his head. He gulped praying it would work as he hid the knife in his sleeve trying to back away; it was then that he felt pain erupting from his leg. He glanced down cursing slightly under his breath seeing blood seeping through his pant leg. Devimon laughed picking him up by the throat doing exactly like he had down to Kouji earlier. Takuya struggled as Devimon tightened his grip slowly allowing the knife tucked in his sleeve to slip into his hand. He gripped it tightly as everything began to blur his vision slowly going.

'Now or never,' the Goggle-Head thought bringing up the kunai knife ramming it into Devimon. The digimon screamed in pain letting go of Takuya who hit the ground gasping for air. He looked at Devimon drawing two throwing stars pegging them at Devimon. They hit dead on embedding themselves into Devimon's body. Takuya coughed regaining his air looking at the digimon getting to his feet though winced in pain.

"You little brat! Touch of Evil!" Takuya yelped hitting the ground covering his head with his arms. He felt the heat of the attack on the back of his neck as the attack flew over him. He gulped gripping his D-Scan a bar code appearing around his hand again. He had to spirit evolve he knew that but the strain was too much. Devimon chuckled a bit picking the young boy up by the back of his shirt. Takuya yelped a bit surprised trying to get free. Devimon chuckled again throwing Takuya across the courtyard. He coughed the wind getting knocked out of him as he hit the ground trying to figure out a plan.

'Dammit, where's Kouji when ya need him!' Takuya thought trying to get to his feet but the pain from his leg was too much. He looked up as Devimon prepared to finish the young boy off. Takuya gulped bracing himself ready to hear the attack but another shout came to his ears.

"Howling Laser!" Takuya opened his eyes as Devimon screeched in pain. Standing a few feet away, though he looked weak, was Lobomon his arm raised. Takuya sighed in relief. One that he had been save, two that his friend was safe. Lobomon glanced other grimacing when he saw his leg.

"Takuya you okay!?"

"Yea, I think at least! You?" Takuya looked as Lobomon gave a slight nod. Devimon glared looking at the warrior of light.

"Well, looks like the other child is up again. Touch of Evil!" Lobomon dodged swiftly drawing his two light saber-swords. Takuya watched as his friend rushed forward slashing at the opponent. A bar code appeared around Devimon as Lobomon turned around pulling out his D-Scan.

"Fractal Code Digitize!" With those words the digimon vanished into data. Takuya watched as Lobomon reverted back into Kouji the young Loner falling to the ground panting. Kouji sighed turning his head to look at Kouji, who was struggling to his feet walking over to the Goggle-Head helping him.

"You know I wore him down," Takuya stated as Kouji simply rolled his eyes helping Takuya walk. There was silence among the spectators as the two walked. Kouji and Takuya were prepared to get asked tons of questions about what had just happened but. Ever so slowly everyone watching began clapping. Kira, Tails and Liza rushed forward to help the two as Tanya, Cat and Hex jogged out of the crowds.

The ride home that day was a silent one. Takuya and Kouji had both fallen asleep in their seats. Liza had gone home with her mother though Tanya said she'd be back. Everyone else in the car was silent since they did not want to wake up the young warriors. They had already gone through enough that day.
