Chapter 21

He frowns as he looks at the collection of Digimon. It's been a good fourteen days since they first found Jinx. The little guy has been spending time with the other in-training Digimon; they decided that Jinx's 'job' was to supervise the group of in-training Digimon and Jinx has taken it to heart too. So Jinx has been spending most of his time with the in-training Digimon, but takes the evenings off to hang with Lan and him.

He looks to where Lan and Set are. He grins a bit at the way they interacted. Both Lan and him have fathers that were usually too busy to spend anytime with them. He's grown use to that for his dad usually away and doesn't try to spend time with him.

Lan's father is another story. Lan's dad makes promises and then finds himself too busy to keep them. This usually hurts Lan more though. Mostly because it raises Lan's hopes and then sends them crashing down. He considers himself lucky that his father doesn't try the same with him. He knows that Set has long since been taken with Lan and it looks like Lan's got himself a replacement dad. He's happy for Lan and for Set.

He then turns to look at the new structures that were still getting built. It was in the last two warehouses that they found construction materials. They've also been raiding the junkyards too. With about sixty Digimon now living at among the warehouses, the fortifying has long since been speeded up. They already have a skeleton of a wall around this place, now they were beginning to add to it.

He frowns as he wonders why nobody has shown up to pick up the crates. Or have this place stormed with police or news people. He knows that many people were confused as to why some of the Digimon attack and why some don't. He had to admit that he's kind of puzzled as to why there weren't more rampaging Digimon as well. But then again, he's also relieved about that too. They didn't have time to keep hunt down every odd mist that appears.

He then glances at Lan's and his PET. They still haven't heard from either Navis. It's worrying that they don't even have a message from either of them. 'It's almost like that time when I used that Dark Chip…' He thinks and then gets up off the chair. He turns away from the window and then heads to go use the washrooms.

He's in a car with Lan driving. He doesn't know what exactly is wrong with this picture, but he's going to try and not think about it. Where Lan also got the car, he really didn't want to think about either.

He watches as the trees pass by as they drove through the out skirts of the city. They were on their way to where the latest merger has happened. Its just Lan and him like usual. He sighs as looks over to see how fast they were going. Lan's going the speed limit and he then turns the music down to 10.

"Just when did you learn to drive?" He asks the other teen. Lan answers, "Would you believe during that time we were in Canada?" He blinks as he remembers that time. He turns and looks to the road. "That was when we were twelve! Who would teach a twelve year old to drive a car?" He asks. "I learnt on that tracker. And it was Nick's grandfather; he wanted someone to take him over to the old farm shed. You should have heard Megaman and Dale go at it! It was also kind of distracting though. I kind of surprised myself at not getting into an accident though. Mega was silent on the way back." Lan explains. He sighs and asks, "That would be when I was in trouble and you weren't at the farm house?" Lan nods. He then shakes his head and turns up the music.

They soon make it to the set and Lan then pulls over to the side of the road and parks the car. They get out and transform into their other forms. They then head in to check it out.

He blinks as he watches as an army of Digimon look to be setting up camp. He picks up his Digivice and watches as images of Digimon appear with their info.

He waits for a bit and when no more appear on his screen, he sighs in relief. He lets go of his Digivice and feels it hit his chest a bit. He looks over at Lan and Lan then says, "Nine different types, huh?" They then turn to count how many there were of each.

They then turn and he starts, "I count ten Bakemon, seven RedVegiemon, and eighteen ShadowToyAgumon." Lan nods and adds, "Three DarkTyrannomon, two Cherrymon, five Blossomon, and eleven Boarmon." They then turn to count the others. They finish counting the remaining Digimon. One Piedmon and eight BladeKuwagamon.

They leave their spot and head somewhere else to Digivolve into their ultimate forms. He flinches as he watches, as Lan becomes SangLigermon. He just stares at Lan's green eyes. The fangs were just as he remembers them and so are Lan's horns.

He watches, as Lan turns to his right and ears forward. He sighs and Digivolves into his champion form and then into his ultimate form. He soon looks behind him and finds his white wings. He turns to find Lan glancing his way. He sighs and he then flies into the air. He feels a rush as he flies towards the other group of Digimon. They both know for a fact that this group was anything but nice. They were just too well prepared to be random.

He glances down to look at Lan's running form. His friend is right under him. He just hopes that Lan's going to be ok. Lan's kind of loses himself to his instincts as Ligermon and as SangLigermon. He can't understand just what that's like, for he remains a bit more human looking then Lan does. It might be for that simple reason that he doesn't have different instincts then usual. He blinks and tries to think of something other then Lan's behaviour.

(-----------------------------------------Lan-----------------------------------------)

They soon charge into the clearing and he launches himself at the closest enemy Digimon. He tackles the Piedmon to the ground and then pins the mega. The Piedmon then uses his Trump Sword on him. He snarls and could smell the fear that his snarl caused. He takes a swipe at the mega level Digimon with his right paw. The Digimon dodges and a Boarmon charges his left side.

He turns and sends the Boarmon flying. He then uses Hell's Desert on the surrounding area. He then attacks as a sand storm rages. He notices that Chaud is keeping the flying Digimon busy and he deletes a Cherrymon. Then the ground Digimon decide to organize a plan of attack. He smirks and lets them try out their plan.

The Boarmon charges him at different times and the remaining Cherrymons use Pit Palter and the Blossomons use Thorn Whips. He notices that the RedVegiemons are busy keeping watchful eyes on the ShadowToyAgumon then on the fight. He then leaps out of the circle and attack the plant Digimon. By the time the Boarmon and them realise where he was, he was busy deleting the RedVegiemon. He then snarls to the rookies, "Head straight along the road if you're tired of slavery."

He then turns to meet the charging group of Boarmon. They all use their Slamming Attack on him and send him flying through the air. He lands on his feet and shake his head afterwards. He then dodges the attacks from the ultimates. He then charges forward on the group of ultimate level Digimon.

He uses his Fire Gate attack and then throws the remaining Cherrymons and four Blossomons into the open gate. The gate then closes and then turns to the Boarmon. It seems that the last DarkTyrannomon have joined the Boarmon.

He turns to find Chaud busy with the mega level Digimon and three remaining BladeKuwagamon. He then returns to find he's again surrounded. He snorts and prepares for them to attack. DarkTyrannomon uses his Fire Blast and the Boarmon using their Nose Blaster. He waits for the last possible moment and then jumps straight up into the air. The attacks collide and this blast sends the ground base Digimon and himself flying.

He lands on all fours and then quickly attacks the DarkTyrannomon. The champion Digimon swipes at him with his arms. He dodges and then bites down hard on one of the virus Digimon's arms. He then notices that most of the Boarmon were up and about. He decides to finish off the Boarmon before the DarkTyrannomon.

He lets go of the arm and leaps away from the Dino Digimon. The Boarmon then try their Slamming Attack once again. He deletes the leading Boarmon and then takes out the next two in a single swipe. He could see that the Boarmon were getting tired, he just feels more thrilled though. Soon the remaining Boarmon try their Nose Blaster, deciding that getting close to him was a bad idea.

He just jumps into the air and pounces on a Boarmon. He soon takes out another six and then the DarkTyrannomon rejoins the battle. He dodges the Iron Tail attack and uses the virus's head as a springboard to get higher into the air. He aims for the remaining Boarmon and hits the Digimon.

He then hears, "What are you?" He turns to find that it comes from the DarkTyrannomon. He thinks about it and then answers, "A nightmare." He charges the champion level Digimon. Before the virus could defend himself, he slashes at the champion. This sends the Digimon flying through the air. The DarkTryannomon uses his Fire Blast and he gets hit. He shakes off the effects of the attack and they then charge each other.

The champion Digimon tries to punch him and he then head butts the Dino in the chest. The black Digimon pulls him in and bear hugs him. He then bites the Digimon's neck. He then chomps down and then is sent flying through the air. He lands roughly and then watches as the virus slowly breaks apart into particles. Another gate opens and the particles are sucked into the gate.

He then turns to look at the battle between Chaud and the clown Digimon. He could see from here that Chaud was having a rough time of it. But it also looks like Chaud also got more then a few hits on the virus.

Chaud then decides to end it, "Chains of Heaven!" Chains appear and wrap themselves around the mega Digimon. He watches as the Piedmon tries to get out of the chains. Then Chaud holds out his sword and cries out, "Holy Dragon Slash!" He watches as a dragon of light appears from the sword as Chaud swings his sword. The blinding dragon then moves towards the chained mega and the Piedmon screams as the dragon passes right through the Digimon.

The particles soon get sucked into a gate and he stares at the spot for about six minutes. Then he transforms back into his rookie form. He turns to look over at Chaud. "I think the ShadowToyAgumon need help finding the warehouses. You ready to go?" He asks. Chaud seems to snap out of his thoughts and nods. Chaud then hovers close to the ground and then Chaud transform into a rookie. He then moves to help Chaud walk to the car.
