"In you go!" The Vilemon threw Agumon, who had just began to wake up, into
the cell. Agumon landed roughly on his stomach in the cell. The Vilemon
flew off, laughing hysterically. Agumon tried to get up, but just didn't
have the energy. He felt like going to sleep right now so he closed his
eyes. Suddenly, he heard a regular clinging sound. He opened his eyes, and
saw blue eyes staring at him. A cat like digimon with purple ears and
yellow gloves was staring at him. She was on all four paws, dragging her
tail against the metal bars of the cage. The gold ring on her tail made a
melodic chime as it connected with the bars.
"Well who do we have here?" The cat digimon stopped dragging her tail over the cage and came over.
"Agumon." Agumon sat up, his muscles stiff. "Who are you?" Agumon heard snoring in the corner. "And who's that?"
"My sleeping associate is called Armadillomon. My name's Gatomon. I'm Kari's digimon. Have you seen her?" Gatomon came closer.
"I..I don't know. I'm sorry. We were walking down a hall, and I remember falling." Agumon apologized. "I guess I was knocked out."
"I know it's not your fault. Kari's a tough girl, she's sure to be all right. But what about you? Are you hurt?" Gatomon moved closer.
"I don't think so." Agumon grabbed his shoulder and cracked it.
"Yawwwnnnn..." Armadillomon finally stirred, blinking as he stood up. "Agumon? Is that you?" Armadillomon smiled happily.
"Umm... do I know you?" Agumon rubbed his head.
"Oh yeah, right." Armadillomon remembered that Agumon would have no clue who he was, being from another time line and all. "The name's Armadillomon."
"Yes, Gatomon already mentioned your name" Agumon replied pointing to Gabumon.
"Well, glad to have you aboard." Armadillomon replied. "Now we can get out!"
"Er...." Agumon looked around nervously.
"Ya mean you didn't get caught your self?" Agumon nodded weakly. Armadillomon shook his head. "Great. Now how are we all supposed to get out of here?"
"Actually." Gatomon was leaning against the back of the cage, looking out. "That may be easier than you think." Gatomon pointed out of the cell.
Armadillomon and Agumon looked to where Gatomon was pointing. A Gazimon appeared outside the cage looking very nervous, with his hands bound in front of him with chains. Armadillomon ventured a guess that might because Kari was behind him, pushing Wizardmon's magical staff in his back. "Kari, yer all right!" Armadillomon said.
Kari nodded in agreement. "Ok you, open that cell door." Kari jammed the sun rod in the Gazimon's back to emphasize the point. The Gazimon complied unlocking the cell, freeing Agumon, Gatomon and Armadillomon. "Thanks." Kari acknowledged, and brought the weapon on the back of Gazimon's neck.
The Gazimon slumped to the ground, and Gatomon threw him in the cell to take their place. "What took you so long?"
"Hey, not many girls can take on four Gazimon." Kari replied as she began to replace Wizardmon's rod back in her backpack. Kari looked down at Gatomon. "Present company accepted."
Agumon came forward. "We'd better find your friend Cody, and get out of here." Agumon didn't want Kari endangered any longer then need be.
Suddenly a steel ball came flying out of the hallway, attached to a chain. It collided with Agumon's stomach, doubling him over. The ball moved like it had a mind of its own as it came down on Armadillomon's head. Gatomon and Kari turned around, as Phantomon appeared in the hallway. Kari swung out Wizardmon's staff and held it like a bat as Phantomon spoke. "Now Beta's so disappointed you declined his offer. He asked me to bring you back with him." Phantomon smirked, although you couldn't see it under his shawl. Suddenly he screamed in pain as he felt something tear in his back.
"I don't think so." Phantomon turned around, a spasm of pain tore up his injured back. Cody was there, brandishing a sharp sword. He had a gash on his left arm, staining his sleeve red. "Kari, get Agumon and Armadillomon out of here! I'll keep Phantomon busy, and I'll meet you outside!"
Kari was about to protest, but Cody ran back down the hall. Phantomon, angry over the indignity form being attacked from behind like that, went off after him. Kari decided that Cody must have a plan. "Come on Gatomon. We better do what he says." She shoved Wizardmon's rod back inside her backpack. Kari picked up the unconscious Armadillomon with a grunt. Agumon, who was still rubbing his stomach, threw an arm over Gatomon. The group moved quickly moved down the hall, looking for the exit.
Meanwhile, Phantomon was tearing down the hall. He found Cody, leaning up against the door to the deceased Peidmon's key chain storage area. He was slowly turning the sword in his hand, admiring it. Phantomon raised his blade to strike. Cody didn't even look up. "Now I wouldn't do that if I where you." He rested his blade on the ground.
Phantomon held the blade over Cody's head. "Maybe Ladydevimon wants you alive, but I can still chop off a few fingers, maybe even a limb or two."
"Oh Ladydevimon wants me alive alright." To Phantomon's surprise, Cody sheathed his sword. "But any harm to me, and she's sure to kill you. Now, I'm going to leave in a few minutes, after our mock battle, and you won't do anything to stop me."
"And why should I do that?" Phantomon questioned, confused at this young child's behavior.
"Simple. Because I said so." Cody swung the door open and walked in.
Phantomon followed, still trying to figure out what's going on. His eyes grew wide when he found Cody on the ground. A large gash on his forehead dripped, making an ever-increasing pool of blood on the ground. His hand was still clenched on his grandfather's sword. Suddenly Phantomon noticed another figure walk up to Cody's form.
Cody bent down to injured Cody, and reached under his shirt. He pulled out the D3 device and the organizer. "To complete the illusion." He snapped them under his own shirt. Cody turned and faced Phantomon. "Now, he's not dead yet. Take him back to Beta's and mend his wounds. Do not allow him to die, for his life is your own. And keep him sedated, I do not want him to escape and spoil my fun."
Phantomon suddenly realized what was going on. He had never met the new council member, a young child apparently. "Lord Delta?"
Cody smiled. "The one and only." He looked down at the motionless Cody on the floor. "Well, maybe not."
"Well who do we have here?" The cat digimon stopped dragging her tail over the cage and came over.
"Agumon." Agumon sat up, his muscles stiff. "Who are you?" Agumon heard snoring in the corner. "And who's that?"
"My sleeping associate is called Armadillomon. My name's Gatomon. I'm Kari's digimon. Have you seen her?" Gatomon came closer.
