Ninetalesuk & Cave Cat:
For using your Digimon, I'm considering it, but the right moment hasn't presented itself yet. Ninetales, could you provide me a description of Metal Devidramon?
Luis:
You probably won't see Silph Town is this fic. It will largely be in the Frontier Digital World.
Scarred Dragonia:
I'm not sure exactly how long Sins of the State will be, though a good ballpark would be somewhere around the mid-20's. Ash won't be competing in the Hoenn League. He and his friends will be too preoccupied with what's happening in the Digital World.
clueless97:
Koichi's going to meet Ash and his gang in a chapter or two, but he will not be the first Warrior that does so. Someone else will have that distinction.
Disclaimer:
Toei and Bandai own Digimon, and Nintendo owns Pokemon. Some Digimon used in this fic belong to me.

Chapter 3: The Assassin of Autumn Leaf
Reichmon soared through the air above the oceans of the Digital World. Though it was getting dark, he could still see that the waters were crisp and clear from his vantage point in the sky. They were beautiful and calm and one wouldn't think that the Digital World was in turmoil from looking at the sea. Reichmon could sense the increasing urgency of the Spirits of Metal as he drew closer to Steel Town. Within moments he landed in the metal metropolis and scanned around for the Warrior of Metal.
Earlier in the day, an eight year old boy named Max was walking along the streets of Steel Town. He had heard many stories about the wonders of the Digital World and wanted to go to Silph Town to visit. In a way, he got his wish, but it was not by the way he wanted and he didn't even enter the same Digital World. He had been forced into this world by the results of world events. The Doom Stone War had begun with Kanto's invasion of Hoenn. He began to reminisce about how he came to be in this new Digital World.
Kanto had begun its invasion in earnest and was moving northwest to his home city of Petalburg. His family had been separated by the confusion brought on by the war. Max eventually found a friend in a Pokemon trainer named Brendan. The two found a group of refugees and followed them to safety. They escaped towards Rustboro City where Devon Corporation had their headquarters. Like Silph, they had developed dimensional gate technology, but it was an improved version that didn't need cumbersome metal pods to protect the riders.
Devon was using their machines to evacuate people into the Digital World. The line-ups were long and the evacuation seemingly took forever. Word spread that Kanto had captured Petalburg and was going to move north to Rustboro next. Unfortunately, this was the worst time for the gate technology to come down with technical failures. They had lost contact with Silph's gate in the Digital World. With the Kanto army coming, the Devon employees decided to send the refugees to a different Digital World that they had discovered.
It was a desperate act, but better than staying around and taking chances with the Kanto army. It was a one way trip since Devon had not finished their Digital World's end of the gate yet. Since Kanto would wipe out the Pokemon World's end of the gate through bombing, there was no way to come back. Max went along with the refugees as they fled, not knowing when they would be able to return, if ever. They wound up in Steel Town, where the local Digimon took them in.
However, things changed shortly after. Human Digimon entered Steel Town and began a massacre on the Beast Digimon that lived there. Many Beast Digimon died as a result of this genocide. Human and Beast Digimon became suspicious of each other and tensions went up sharply. The Pokemon World refugees were equally afraid. They feared being caught in the middle of more violence after escaping it once already. As Max walked down the street, these facts weren't immediately visible on the faces of the people.
He entered the stadium at the local park to watch some Pokemon battles. Max saw a familiar boy watching a battle from the stands. He was clothed in a red and black windbreaker and black jeans. He also had white hair that was held back by a black sports headband. From his appearance and the logos on his clothes, this boy was a Pokemon trainer like the others. Max recognized this boy as the same one who helped escape Hoenn. His name was Brendan.
"Hi Brendan!" called Max.
"Oh hi, Max! How are you today?" asked Brendan.
"I'm fine. It's a nice day today. So, you're here to do some battling?"
"Yeah, I'm just waiting for my turn," replied Brendan.
A trainer named Jake was on the field and called for challengers. Brendan accepted and the two made a symbolic handshake as a show of good sportsmanship. The ref flipped a coin into the air and Brendan made a call of heads. The referee revealed the coin to be heads as Brendan predicted, so Jake had the disadvantage of releasing his Pokemon first. The two competitors moved to opposite ends of the field and prepared to battle.
"This will be a one-on-one battle," declared the referee. "Jake lost the coin toss so he must reveal his Pokemon first."
"Okay, go Camerupt!" Jake released a fiery, camel-like Pokemon that had volcanoes for his humps.
====================Pokedex====================
Name: Camerupt
Type: Fire/Ground
Evolved From: Numel
Notable Abilities: Eruption, Earthquake, Magma Armour
Camerupt, the Eruption Pokemon, has magma coursing through its body. The volcanoes on its back erupt often, especially if this Pokemon is enraged.
"A Camerupt?" asked Brendan. "Let's fight Fire with Fire. Ninetales, go!" A golden, nine-tailed fox popped out of Brendan's Pokeball.
====================Pokedex====================
Name: Ninetales
Type: Fire
Evolved From: Vulpix
Notable Abilities: Flamethrower, Fire Spin, Flash Fire
Ninetales, the Fox Pokemon, is said to be able to live for a millennium. It is believed that pulling on one of her tails will trigger a thousand-year long curse.
"Camerupt, Earthquake attack!" called Jake. Camerupt shook the ground violently once he stomped it as hard as he could.
The attack was disrupting Ninetales' balance. She was about to fall. "Ninetales, leap into the air!" ordered Brendan.
The Fox Pokemon leapt into the air to evade the rumbling brought on by the Earthquake. Camerupt proceeded to use its Eruption ability to spew several blobs of molten lava. One of the blobs caught Ninetales in the body and caused her to tumble onto the ground. Camerupt tried a second Earthquake to tag Ninetales while she was down, but the fox recovered and leapt into the air on Brendan's command. Jake and Camerupt were surprised by their opponent's quick recovery.
"Now, Confuse Ray!" cried Brendan.
Ninetales emitted a crimson ray at her foe which caused him to become disoriented. Taking advantage of his opponent's moment of weakness, Brendan ordered a Fire Spin. Ninetales exhaled a whirling tornado of flame which scooped Camerupt off the ground. After being spun around in a dizzying circle and burned by the fire, Camerupt fell to the ground and the Fire Spin subsided. Ninetales rammed Camerupt with a Quick Attack which knocked him in front of Jake.
The referee checked on Camerupt's condition and made a decision. "Camerupt is unable to battle. Ninetales is the winner!"
"Yeah!" cheered Max from the stands. "Way to go Brendan!"
After watching a few more matches, it began to get dark and Max decided to leave. On his way out, a trio of young hoodlums pulled him aside and surrounded him. "Hey little nerd, where are you going?" asked the ringleader, young man with a punk motif.
Max didn't answer out of fear. "What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?" asked the second, who wore a leather cap.
"Let me go!" demanded Max.
"Oh, so the little runt can talk after all?" asked the third, a bald young man.
The ringleader brushed his buddies aside. "I can't do that. You see, this stadium is our turf and you're trespassing. If you want to go through, you're going to have to pay the toll!"
"How much is it?" asked Max nervously.
"Twenty Bytes and not a Bit less!" stated the ringleader.
"I don't have that kind of money!" admitted Max.
"Well then, looks like we're going to collect another way, right boys?" said the ringleader. His accomplices agreed and began to crack their knuckles in anticipation.
"Why don't you pick on someone your own size?" asked a mysterious voice. The voice turned out to be from an unknown warrior in black armour.
"...And who are you supposed to be?"
"I am Reichmon, the Legendary Warrior of Darkness."
"So, we got a clown who thinks he can take us on. What do you say, boys? I think we can spare a few seconds for him..."
"In five seconds, I could have you all dead if I wanted, but I'm a nice guy so I'll go easy on you," said Reichmon.
"Oh confident one, are you? We'll see how confident you are once we're done with you! Houndoom, go!"
The ringleader released a black dog that had a pair of horns on its head. The second hooligan released a Mightyena, a dark hyena with grey and black fur. The third released a Machoke, a humanoid Pokemon that resembled a muscular professional wrestler. The ringleader ordered his Houndoom to blow Smog over the area and blind Reichmon. The other two Pokemon charged into the smoke for the attack, but found nothing inside. Reichmon was gone and the hooligans were confounded.
"Huh? Where the hell is he?" asked the ringleader angrily.
Elsewhere, Reichmon put Max on the ground and checked on his condition. "You alright?"
Max coughed to clear his throat. "I'm okay, thanks to you uh..."
"Reichmon," replied Reichmon.
"Yeah... Thanks, Reichmon!"
"Max!" called Brendan as he ran to check out Max. "Are you okay? I saw the smoke and came to see you."
"I'm fine," assured Max. "Some bullies tried to attack me when I left but Reichmon here got me out of trouble."
"Thanks Reichmon."
"No problem. Now Max, remember how I said I was the Legendary Warrior of Darkness? Well, there are ten Legendary Warriors in all. I am searching for the others and have found you; the Warrior of Metal," informed Reichmon.
"Warrior of Metal?" asked Max.
"Yes, the Spirits of Metal have led me to you. They have chosen you to be their master."
"Wait a minute! I'm no superhero; I'm just a kid!"
"So am I. Though I look like a powerful Digimon, I'm really a kid just like you are. It was the Spirits of Darkness that made me into Reichmon."
"You're a kid too?" asked Max. "...But that's impossible!"
Reichmon explained the nature of the Legendary Warriors to Max. Each Warrior had a ruling element that determined what powers they wielded. There were ten elements in all. They were Fire, Light, Ice, Wind, Thunder, Wood, Earth, Water, Metal, and Darkness. Each element had two Spirits, a Human and a Beast Spirit. It was possible to combine their power to make a third, more powerful Digimon. A human can use the power of a Spirit become the Digimon represented by that Spirit.
"You need something to store your Spirits. Do you have anything electronic on you?" asked Reichmon.
"Here, he can take one of my spare Pokeballs," offered Brendan.
Reichmon took the spare Pokeball and materialized his D-Tector. The Spirits of Metal travelled from the D-Tector to Max's Pokeball on a bridge of Fractal Code. "Concentrate on the Spirits and they will tell you what to do."
"Found you!" cried the hooligan ringleader as he ran up the group. His buddies stopped beside him. "You gave us the slip back there, but you won't get away this time!"
"Max, do know what to do now? Why don't you do the honours?" offered Reichmon.
Max nodded as he opened the Pokeball and revealed the Human Spirit of Metal. "Execute," called Max as Spirit of Metal released bands of Fractal Code which entwined around his body. "Spirit Evolution!"
A rush of power surged through Max's body as his clothes vanished. The sections of a suit of green armour appeared and encased itself around Max's body. Max became a wizard-like Digimon made of green metal with a mirror for a face. It was the Digimon depicted by the Spirits of Metal. A pair of lips appeared in the mirror as the wizard smiled. He slashed the air with his shields as a demonstration of his skill. The Digimon showed the mirror on the surface of one of his shields and it radiated a burst of green light.
"Mercurymon!"
====================Digimon Analyzer====================
Name: Mercurymon
Attributes: Variable, Human Hybrid, Metal Element
When the Warriors of Metal, Wood, Water, and Earth were corrupt, Mercurymon was their leader. This wizard Digimon excels at defence and turning his opponent's force against him or her.
Special Abilities/Traits:
Inorganic, ambidextrous, teleportation
Dark Reflection - Mercurymon can absorb an opponent's attack into his mirrors and then shoot it back at them.
Offset Reflector - Mercurymon can shine a wave of green light that shoves his victim away.
The ringleader was bewildered. "The little nerd turned into a Digimon? It doesn't matter. We'll pound him anyways! Go Houndoom, Flamethrower!"
Unfortunately, the ringleader had made a grave tactical error in ordering a Flamethrower. There was no turning back as Houndoom took a deep breath and sprayed a blast of flame in Mercurymon's direction. The Warrior of Metal raised his shield in defence and activated his Dark Reflection ability. The flames harmlessly poured into the mirror to the surprise of the hooligans. Suddenly, the flames gushed out of Mercurymon's shield and back at Houndoom, knocking him onto his side.
The other hooligans were enraged. "Grrr... Machoke, Cross Chop!" ordered the third hooligan.
"Mightyena, Take Down!" ordered the second hooligan.
Mercurymon braced himself as the two Pokemon charged at him. Machoke chopped at Mercurymon with crossed arms, but the Warrior of Metal blocked and repelled him with a burst of green light. Mercurymon shielded himself once again as Mightyena came in to ram him. With a second Offset Reflector, Mercurymon pushed Mightyena away. The hooligans, having gotten nowhere, backed off and decided to change tactics.
Once again, Mightyena and Machoke charged at the Warrior of Metal. Mercurymon shielded himself once again and used Offset Reflectors to repel his attackers. However, Houndoom breathed a Flamethrower that caught Mercurymon by surprise. The flames burned the Warrior of Metal and knocked him onto his back. At that moment, Brendan wanted to intervene but Reichmon barred the way with his staff.
"Let him fight," requested Reichmon. "He needs to become accustomed to the power of the Spirits."
The enemy Pokemon charged at Mercurymon to get into range. They attacked him relentlessly to prevent him from using his shields to reflect their attacks. Mercurymon had been dragged into a melee situation where he was weakest as a fighter. The Warrior of Metal had to bash and slash the enemy Pokemon with his shields in order to drive them away. After several rounds, Mercurymon had managed to ward them away.
"Slide Evolution," called Mercurymon as he travelled upwards through a tunnel of Fractal Code and switched to his Beast Spirit. "Sephirotmon!"
====================Digimon Analyzer====================
Name: Sephirotmon
Attributes: Variable, Beast Hybrid, Metal Element
Sephirotmon is a bizarre Digimon that is made of multiple dimensions. He can draw you into his body and force you to fight illusions of his creation.
Special Abilities/Traits:
Inorganic, hovering, teleportation, can create pocket dimensions in his body and draw victims into them
Rumble Blend #1-5 - Sephirotmon can fire different elemental blasts from his eyes. #1=Fire, #2= Light, #3=Ice, #4=Wind, #5=Thunder
Rumble Blend #6-10 - Sephirotmon can fire different elemental blasts from his eyes. #6 =Earth, #7=Wood, #8=Water, #9=Metal, #10=Darkness
The hooligans were taken by surprise at the sight of the massive Sephirot tree. They ordered their Pokemon to attack Sephirotmon en masse. Sephirotmon scrunched himself up and used Rumble Blend #8 against Houndoom. Since Houndoom had a weakness to water, the attack had a much greater effect on him. The blast of water blew the Dark Pokemon back into the ground in front of his owner.
"Houndoom!" cried the ringleader in shock. He couldn't believe that Sephirotmon had defeated his Pokemon so easily.
Sephirotmon subsequently flattened Mightyena and Machoke with the positive energy blasts of Rumble Blend #2. "He's too strong! Let's get out of here!" cried the second hooligan. The three of them ran off as Sephirotmon reverted into Max.
"Wow! It's cool to be a Digimon!" commented Max on his victory.
Reichmon reverted into Koichi. "Man, if only us Pokemon trainers could turn into Pokemon. That would be awesome!" exclaimed Brendan.
Everyone introduced themselves and Koichi explained his mission to Max and Brendan. "Cherubimon fears that another Human and Beast war is brewing. He sent me to find the other Warriors so we could stop this from happening."
"I heard the Digimon talking about that. I saw the killing spree the Knightmon went on a few days ago. Everyone is worried that this big war is going to erupt any day now. Now that I'm the Warrior of Metal, I have to help prevent this?" asked Max.
"Yeah," replied Koichi. "The Spirits of Metal wouldn't have chosen you unless there was something special about you."
"Think of this as a good opportunity for you, Max. You're going to be a Pokemon trainer one day, right?" asked Brendan. Max nodded affirmatively. "You can learn more about the Digital World out there instead of here. If you go with Koichi, you can get used to being on the road."
"Yeah, you're right Brendan. Are you coming along?" asked Max.
Brendan mentally debated his course of action. "I guess so. It's good experience to fight random trainers in the park, but there's just no replacement for travelling as a Pokemon trainer."
Koichi concentrated on the Spirits to find out where their masters would be. This time, the Spirit of Water and Wood responded with a desire to meet their owners. "The Spirits of Water and Wood tell me that their owners are somewhere in the Digital World now. I have to find them."
"Well, looks like we're going!" said Max.
"Not yet. I still have to find the other Warriors first. I can move much faster if I'm alone. In the meantime, why don't you get some training in with Brendan?"
"Sure," replied Max. "We'll be in the park if you need us. Good luck with your search, Koichi!"
Ash, Brock, May, and Misty exited their Trailmon at the Autumn Leaf Fair. The fair itself was in the middle of the arctic regions of the Digital World. The whole place was surrounded by snow that extended as far as the eye could see. Though it should be cold, the fair was actually quite warm and comfortable. This was due to the giant furnace situated at the centre of town. It provided all the warmth needed by the entire Autumn Leaf Fair.
As they walked into the fair, they were greeted by the sight of countless merchant stands. Equally numerous was the Digimon that lived and traded there. Ash had never seen so many Digimon gathered in one place at a time. They behaved more like humans than animals, gossiping as they browsed the stands. Ash overhead a pair of Digimon talking to each other about current events in the Digital World.
The duo were Burgermon; small creatures that wore a cap that resembled a hamburger bun. "Did you know?" asked the first. "There was a Beast riot in Flame Terminal just hours ago. I heard that that was one of the places where Human Digimon had attacked Beast Digimon. Things are getting very bad."
"Yeah, I know what you mean. When I was walking to the store the other day, the Beast Digimon kept giving me dirty looks. I was scared that they were going to attack me up any moment!" admitted the second.
"I know what you mean. Why are we being blamed? It's not our fault the Beast Digimon were killed. We didn't do anything!" complained the second.
Ash continued on his way, making note of what he had overhead. It had sounded very serious indeed. From their conversation, Ash noted that there seemed to be two factions of Digimon in this world, Human and Beast. There had been violence and riots which put the two groups at odds with each other. For Ash, it was very unsettling to learn that this Digital World was very unstable politically.
"Um guys, I don't think we should stay here too long..." warned Ash.
"Why?" asked May.
"I just overheard two Digimon talking about the Digital World. From what I heard, there's been a lot of violence lately. Another fight could break out and I don't want to be trapped in the middle," replied Ash.
"Then we'd better hurry up," advised Brock.
The Pokemon trainers asked around the town about a possible cure for Misty's mutation. Their search brought them to the stand of a diminutive old female Digimon. This old woman wore a soiled red apron over her green robes and a pink pearl necklace. Her grey hair was tied in a ball at the top of her head and held by a wooden pin. The old lady looked almost like a puppet due to the fact that her mouth was sewn up by threads. She carried a broom which gave the trainers the impression that she was a witch.
"Hello kids, what brings you to Babamon's Medicine Emporium?" asked the Digimon.
"We were hoping that you can cure my friend Misty," replied Ash. He explained the situation to Babamon, who sympathized with their plight.
Babamon looked over Misty before turning back to Ash. "I think I can help her, but it's a shame. She's very beautiful the way she is now."
"I don't want to stay like this for the rest of my life!" cried Misty in offence.
"Okay dear, you don't have to worry. I'm going to brew a potion for you, but it will require some expensive ingredients. I am going to need some money to cover my costs."
"How much?" asked Brock.
"It will take a hundred Bytes," replied Babamon.
Misty looked the coins and found that she had enough for the potion. "Okay you have a deal!"
"Good. I'll get to work right away. It will take a while so why don't you kids take a look around town to pass the time?"
"Sure! Thank you very much, Babamon! We'll come back later!" cried Ash as he left to explore the Autumn Leaf Fair.
Tommy continued his journey to the location of his Spirit Quest. After his Trailmon pulled into Autumn station, he walked out of the door and consulted his D-Tector. It pointed in a north-easterly direction and Tommy Spirit Evolved to Chakkumon. As the Human Hybrid of Ice, he could move faster on the snow by simply skiing on it. The Warrior of Ice glided along the snow as he travelled ever deeper into the icy wastes. After a several minutes of travelling, it began to snow.
The D-Tector led Chakkumon to a massive Digimon with his back turned to him. He was known as a Mammothmon. He turned to face Chakkumon before trumpeting loudly. Mammothmon was a gigantic prehistoric elephant with shaggy brown fur. He had long sharp tusk that made being gored by them an unappealing thought. His trunk was long and was covered in armour, as was his head. Chakkumon became alarmed once Mammothmon began charging at him.
====================Digimon Analyzer====================
Name: Mammothmon
Attributes: Vaccine, Ultimate Level, Ice Element
This massive Digimon thrives in the cold, icy wastelands of the Digital World. He charges as fast as a fully-loaded, speeding freight train and hits just as hard.
Special Abilities/Traits:
None
Tusk Crusher - Mammothmon's long sharp tusks can be fired like missiles at anyone he so chooses.
Freezing Breath - The freezing wind from Mammothmon's trunk can encase its victims within a solid block of ice.
Mammothmon's shook the earth with a thunderous rumble as he charged straight at Chakkumon. The Warrior of Ice skied out of the mastodon's way, allowing him to pass by harmlessly. He took aim with his rocket launcher and pelted the mastodon with a barrage of snowballs. It had no effect other that to cause Mammothmon to stop, turn around, and fire his tusks in retaliation. Chakkumon leapt of the way as the tusks embedded into the snow.
The Warrior of Ice landed and Mammothmon spewed Freezing Breath from his trunk. Once again, Chakkumon dodged and leapt into his opponent's blind spot. He took a deep breath and blew an icy wind of his own and froze Mammothmon in a block of ice. However, Mammothmon broke free seconds later and Chakkumon skied away to a safe distance. In retaliation, Mammothmon fired a pair of Tusk Crushers which struck Chakkumon and knocked him off balance.
"Slide Evolution," called Chakkumon, as he hovered through a tunnel of Fractal Code. He transformed into the Beast Hybrid of Ice. "Korikakumon!"
Korikakumon ran into his opponent and checked him with his shoulder. Since he was much bigger and stronger than Chakkumon, he actually managed to knock Mammothmon onto his side. As the mastodon tried to get up, Korikakumon called his Avalanche Axes into existence. The Warrior of Ice scored a powerful slash to the head of Mammothmon, rattling the mammoth Digimon greatly. Suddenly, Mammothmon recovered and snatched Korikakumon into the air with his trunk.
The mastodon tossed his victim into a nearby snow drift with the whipping of his trunk. As his opponent returned to his feet, he charged at top speed and rammed him. The hit shot the Warrior of Ice backwards as Mammothmon simultaneously fired a Tusk Crusher which dug into Korikakumon's flesh. Korikakumon landed sprawled on the ground inside of a bank of snow. The power of the Beast Spirit left him and he reverted into an unconscious Tommy.
Mammothmon walked over to check his fallen opponent. All he found was Tommy lying on the ground unconscious. Satisfied with the damage he had done, Mammothmon walked off into the approaching snow storm and vanished. Tommy was now in the most dangerous situation he could possibly be in; alone and unconscious in a snow storm. The storm began to pick up and buried Tommy beneath a tomb of accumulated snow.
Tommy found himself standing in the middle of the snowy wastes. Though it was snowing and seemingly freezing cold, he did not feel cold at all. He saw the figure of massive sloth-like creature rise out of the snow before him. Its body had a coat of shaggy, icy blue fur tied in dreadlocks. The creature's head was like that of a woolly mammoth with thick brown fur, ice coated tusks, and a long trunk. The creature's trumpet was triumphant and resounded throughout the arctic wastelands.
Tommy suddenly found himself entombed within his icy grave and new life surged within his body. The Kanji of Ice appeared on his forehead and its icy blue light pierced through the layers of snow. Through a great magical force, Tommy blew away the snow and unearthed his floating body. As he descended onto the ground, a great icy power coursing through his body; the feeling of biting cold gone. Tommy held out the Spirits of Ice in the palms of his hands.
"Execute," cried Tommy as he thrust his two Spirits together. "Fusion Evolution!"
The Spirits of Ice unleashed a torrent of snow and icy wind upon fusion. The snow and winds encased his body like a cocoon and began to deposit layers of ice and snow on him. The snow moulded him into a giant penguin Digimon with a turning crank on his head. The penguin transformed into a living creature with dark blue feathers and a white belly. Water froze into a rose-coloured popsicle in his left hand a light blue one in his right. The new Digimon crossed the popsicles like an "X" and brandished them threateningly.
"Dai Penmon!"
====================Digimon Analyzer====================
Name: Dai Penmon
Attributes: Variable, Fusion Hybrid, Ice Element
Dai Penmon is a living ice shaving machine that dispenses frozen treats for Digimon to eat. His enemies may mock him for his silly appearance, but their laughing stops once his icy powers freeze them solid.
Special Abilities/Traits:
Ambidextrous, ice breathing, can toboggan on flat surfaces, shape shifting: ice
Blue Hawaii Death - Dai Penmon's blue popsicle flash freezes whatever is struck by it.
Strawberry Death - Dai Penmon's rose-coloured popsicle strikes with an icy blow and leaves a trail of cold air behind it.
"Yeah I did it!" thought Dai Penmon as he looked at himself. "I finished my Spirit Quest!" The Warrior of Ice soared down the icy wastes as a living toboggan. It wouldn't take long before he reached the Autumn Leaf Fair.
The Pokemon trainers were hungry and visited a local fast food restaurant. It was known as Burgermon Palace and run by the same Digimon Ash had overhead talking; the Burgermon. It was a plastic place that was no different from other fast food joints. From the items listed on its menu, Burgermon Palace specialized in burgers, but also had other types of food for diversity. After ordering a Tommy Burger with fries, Ash watched the cooks work on his order.
The group sat down at a nearby table and began to eat. "Yum! This tastes good!" commented May.
"I really like the Tommy Burger. The sauce they put in it is nice," commented Ash after he took a bite from his burger.
"Hmm, this sauce looks like onions mixed in salad dressing," observed Brock.
"Yeah, I thought so," replied Ash. "It tastes pretty good."
The trainers continued to eat their lunch. As they cleaned up, a loud ruckus outside drew their attention. The trainers looked outside and saw a great eagle Digimon swooping over the fair. As it made passes over the buildings, the bird fired crimson energy rings on the Digimon and buildings below. The Digimon scattered for safety while some of the braver ones began to fire back in retaliation. The eagle dodged the attacks and gained distance to prepare for a second run on the Autumn Leaf Fair.
====================Digimon Analyzer====================
Name: Aquilamon
Attributes: Data, Champion Level, Flying type
This great eagle is among the proudest and noblest of Digimon in the Digital World. He is a Beast type Digimon that can fly at near sonic speeds.
Special Abilities/Traits:
Flight
Blast Rings (None) - Aquilamon can fire a set of crimson energy rings from his mouth.
Grand Horn (Normal) - Aquilamon can empower his horns with energy for greater punch when he rams into an enemy.
Aquilamon swooped down and fired his Blast Rings at a store somewhere in the distance. "Wasn't that Babamon's store?" asked Misty.
"We have to see if she's okay!" urged Ash.
The trainers made their way through the chaos that had filled the streets. They reached Babamon's store and pulled her out of the rubble. "Are you okay?" asked Brock.
"I'm fine, children, but I'm sorry about your medicine. The roof came down and the bottle slipped out of my hand as I tried to get away," replied Babamon.
Misty sighed in dismay. "Looks like I'll have to find another way to return to normal. At least you're okay."
"Run for it! He's coming back!" cried May.
The trainers scrambled for cover as Aquilamon returned for a second pass on the neighbourhood. Brock, being in the rear, dove for cover as Aquilamon's Blast Rings levelled the store nearby. May helped her friend up and together they ran for a safer location. Some Digimon police appeared on the scene and returned fire, flooding the sky with elemental blasts as Aquilamon flew away. Since the great eagle was outnumbered, he decided to leave while he still had the chance.
Ash was bewildered. "What was that all about?"
The authorities began to restore order to the fair and clean up the damage Aquilamon had wrought. The trainers asked around about the reasons for this attack. It was rumoured that the Aquilamon was avenging his kin, the Beast Digimon, for their deaths at the hands of Human Digimon in a previous riot. Naturally, the Human Digimon of the Autumn Leaf Fair were angry about this attack. It didn't help matters in the least that the majority of the destroyed stores happened to be owned by Human Digimon.
A wizard-like Digimon looked over his ruined store with sadness; a sadness that soon turned to rage which he took out on the Beast bystanders. "Damn you animals!" cried the furious Digimon, a Wizardmon. "I'm ruined! Everything I worked for is gone! Are you happy now? Are you happy that you've stolen a Digimon's livelihood from him? I hate you! I HATE YOU ALL!"
Apparently, the other victims of Aquilamon felt exactly as Wizardmon did. They were angry, bitter, and frustrated. The Wizardmon picked a chunk of rubble from the nearby ruins and threw it at the nearby Beast Digimon. The other Human Digimon followed the Wizardmon's lead and began stoning the Beast Digimon. The situation spiralled out of control once the Human Digimon started using their special attacks on the Beast types.
The trainers wisely decided to escape. The Autumn Leaf Fair burst into an orgy of violence as explosions resounded from behind. The Beast Digimon ran for their lives as murderous Human Digimon lynched every Beast Digimon unfortunate enough to be caught in their path. The trainers averted their eyes as the Human Digimon began to beat a small pink bird, a Biyomon, to death. They terrified cries of the Biyomon resounded in the trainers' minds as did the inflammatory chants of the mob.
The violence did not end with the lynching of Beast Digimon. Human Digimon began to attack the stands of Beast Digimon as well, throwing their merchandise onto the ground and smashing it. A rioting ape-like Digimon, Apemon, lit a Molotov cocktail using fire from the fair's furnace. He hurled the cocktail into the vacant stand of a Beast Digimon merchant and other Human Digimon followed his lead. Apemon and the other Human types cheered as they watched the stand burst into flame by their hands.
