Chapter 4
He wakes the next morning and finds Jinx already eating oranges. He sighs and then gets off the ground. He then climbs up into the tree and then begins to eat. He's found that he really didn't care just who saw him eat like this, for he just wanted his stomach to be full.
Soon he was satisfied and the picks up the energized Jinx. He then sighs and didn't see any harm on heading the same way he had been walking yesterday. He was also on guard for that green creature.
After walking for a bit, he decides to ask Jinx, "What's a Digimon?" This causes Jinx to giggle. He waits for the answer and after a few minutes Jinx finally stops laughing. "We're Digimon, silly!" Jinx says in a cheerful voice. He only blinks at this and thinks about this. They soon stop for lunch by a berry bush. They feasted on the odd red and blue berries, they weren't poisonous, lucky for them.
Then he hears something close in. He leaps out of the way as the green Digimon appears. The bone club was on the ground where he had been sitting. Jinx just looks like he's going to faint. He really didn't want to handle this now, but it seems that this Digimon wouldn't just leave him be.
As he gets into a fighting stance that he feels is right way to stand, something attacks the green Digimon. His device glows again and he picks it up to look at it.
Orgemon
Champion level Digimon
Virus type
Evil. Attacks are Pummel Whack and Bone Cudgel.
Then another one appears.
Diatrymon
Champion level Digimon
Vaccine type
Ancient Bird. Attacks are Destruction Roar and Mega Dash Impact.
He just blinks in surprise as the Orgemon snorts and says, "The rookie stole something of my, so this isn't your fight." The Bird Digimon then answers, "I find that hard to believe. I've heard rumors about this area. You're gang took it over and chased or deleted anyone that stood in your way. I can't just turn away from this. When I finish here, I'll go clear out the rest of that nest."
He then decides to grab Jinx and retreats. The two champion level Digimon then charge each other, the Orgemon with his bone club up high and with Diatrymon's head lower and wings spread out. He can't turn away from this battle. He knows that this was between equal, at least he thinks it is, he still didn't know why there were virus, data, or vaccine types yet, but he hopes to find out.
Soon the two Digimon meet and Diatrymon uses his head to knock away the bone club. Then Orgemon punches Diatrymon under the chin. Diatrymon then retaliates by slicing at Orgemon with his wing claws. Orgemon then backs away from Diatrymon. Then Orgemon leaps into the air and grabs Diatrymon by the neck. Soon Diatrymon uses his weight to force both him and Orgemon onto the ground. They roll away from each other and Diatrymon notices that he was close to where the bone club is. Diatrymon the sends the bone club into the air and snaps it in his beak.
Orgemon then looks to be in a rage. "That was my club that you broke, you over sized chicken!" There was now a chill in the air. Diatrymon then says in a really blank tone, "What did you call me?" The green Digimon just answers, "You heard me, you idiot bird!" He flinches as Diatrymon seems to disappear and Orgemon is sent through two tree trunks. Then just as Orgemon was getting up, Diatrymon then tackles Orgemon. But Orgemon grabs a hold of Diatrymon's right wing and then tries to toss the great bird into the closest tree, but Diatrymon then bites down on Orgemon's shoulder. Orgemon is then on the ground with Diatrymon on top of the green champion. Orgemon then has a hand gripping Diatrymon's neck.
It looks to be a stalemate. He let's Jinx go and then watches as Jinx's red tattoo begins to glow and then this light hits Diatrymon. Diatrymon then glows and when the light disappears, Diatrymon's feathers look healthier. Then before their eyes, Diatrymon then lets go of Orgemon's shoulder and yells out, "Destruction Roar!" He covers his ears in hopes to block out the sound. He watches as Orgemon begins to break up into data. Then the data floats away.
Then Diatrymon turns to look in their direction. "Aaa, a Calumon, I should have known." Diatrymon says with amusement in his tone. He then walks out of the bushes, while Jinx floats out. He bows and says, "Thank you." Diatrymon snorts and says, "Don't worry about it, young one. It's why I came here. I'm called Gazed." "I'm Chaud and this is Jinx." He says. "Nice to meet you, Chaud. You too Jinx, now I must be going. I suggest you keep heading this way; you'll make it to Express Station in a few days. Good luck and keep you guard up." With that, Gazed turns and leaves, heading in the opposite direction then him and Jinx.
Just stands there for a few seconds and then sighs. Jinx was already gone and he decides to find the little guy. He now knew what his device could be used for. He wished that Gazed stayed around so that he could ask him questions.
Then a thought popped into his head. He picks up the device and focuses his thoughts onto what kind of Digimon he was. Soon his image appears on the device.
Aroomon
Rookie level Digimon
Vaccine type
Kangaroo Fighter. Attacks are Wind Fury and Storm Focus.
He sighs and lets it fall out of his hand. Then he continues to look for Jinx. He was beginning to get an idea on why there were different types and why classified as data, vaccine, and virus. If he's right, then he should be stronger when fighting a virus.
It took them eleven days to get to Express Station. He sighs as Jinx floats around excitedly. They did encounter more of those Goblimons. He took them out with easily and was getting better at it. He hopes to get answers at this place.
He had asked the guard about where to find someone to help him. He was told about an Astamon named Race. He was now looking for Race's bookstore. He was hoping to get answers as to where he was and why he's here. He also had to keep an eye on Jinx, for it seems that Jinx wasn't the only Calumon in this place. There were three others and their names are Yoyo, Swing, and Slide. He didn't want to lose Jinx, for he didn't want to be alone. Jinx had become a really good friend and he'd hate it if Jinx choice to stop coming with him. He pushes those thoughts out of his mind, for he needed to focus on finding this bookstore.
Soon they see a sign with a book on it. He decides to check it out. With Jinx following him, he opens the door and walks in. A tall Digimon stands by the counter and after checking to see if Jinx was ok, he walks up to the counter. It was then he realized just how tall he was. He blinks and then asks, "Are you Race?" The Digimon looks him up and down before answering, "I am. What can I help you with?" He holds out his device and asks, "Can you tell me what this is?" The robed Digimon lends in closer to get a better view of it and the he heads a sharp breath from Race.
The taller Digimon then turns away and heads to the back room. Soon Jinx joins him as Race comes back in with a book open. "It's a Digivice. There things of legend and of myths. See for yourself." Race says and then puts the book in front of him. He looks at a picture of a white device that looks to be his device's twin. He didn't know what the words said, but was too busy trying to understand the other pictures. For they show Digimon glowing and then a new Digimon standing in that ones place. It didn't really help him, but he'll figure it out later.
He looks up at Race and asks, "I don't suppose you have an idea on where I need to be then?" Race thinks about it for a bit and then answers, "I would head to Union Gate. The Digimon there is old and wise, he might answer you question on why you were chosen. I'll even give you a map for free. It's not everyday you meet a Digimon with an legendary device." Race then heads back into the back room with then book.
He waits for a few minutes and then Race comes back with a map and a simple pack. "Here, the pack has two water bottles, you might want to fill them before leaving town." Race says as he hands over the pack and then unfolds the map. "You're here and this is the most direct road to take to Wave Aim. It'll take you months, and it might be better if you don't stop at some of this town and villages. You might be ambushed." Race traces the road he should take and he then nods in agreement with Race.
As he picks up the map, he then asks, "Why help me?" Race snorts and says, "Some virus don't know when to be satisfied with what they have. Those kinds of virus always test the boundaries that have been set up to help keep this world running smoothly. I learnt my lesson ages ago. If Digivices are being sent out, it means that someone is trying to break the balance of our world. I like this world the way it is, so good luck to you chosen. You'll need it." He sighs and puts the map into the pack and nods his goodbyes to Race. He walks out the door with Jinx following him.
"I knew you were special! This is going to really exciting!" Jinx then says as he looks for a water fountain. He can't help but grin in relief at this. His fears of going on alone disappear, he had his friend and they now had a place to aim for.
(-------------------------------Lan-------------------------------------------)
He sighs as they chase off some bandits that were harassing this village. He still didn't know what to make of everything, but he was just glad to have company, but he also notices how Alex deep in thought about something. They have heard rumors about some virus recruiting Digimon for his army and he could tell that Alex wants to go and stop this from happening. He knew that he was lucky that Alex had traveled this far with him and he was maturing as well.
He sighs and says, "Go with him, I know you want to." Alex snaps her head towards him and asks, "I thought you wanted me to help you on your way?" He sighs and this time thinks about what he's going to say before speaking, it was really, super hard for him to do this, but he knew that this was important. "You're needed else where. It's only a few more weeks away! I can't always rely on others for my safety." He tells her. Alex smiles a bit at this and nods after thinking it over. "Your right. You've grown a lot since we first meet, Lan. If you feel that you need to go on alone, then who am I to stand in your way?" He nods and then she adds, "Thanks. You'll grow up to be a really good leader some day, Lan." He looks puzzled at this, for Alex then curls up and falls asleep. He didn't know what she meant by that. In some of movies and TV shows that he's seen, all the leaders seem to busy people around and then take the glory for themselves. He didn't want to be like that and for he didn't want others getting hurt. He sighs and finding that he'll not be getting any answers, he slowly falls asleep.
