Chapter 16
He looks out the window and at the twin towers of the Hypnos building. It seems that Grani, the newly renamed and remolded Ark, is learning from Henry's D-Ark. He was tired mentally and if it hasn't been for Guilmon, he might be in a depression right now. The feeling around the city have intensified and he just knows that something really bad is going to happen, he figures that the D-Reaper needs to keep Jeri depressed in order to feed off her energy.
"You don't look too well." Rika says from behind him. He turns his head slightly and says, "I'm just tired is all." He pauses and adds, "The emotions are getting worst. Something's going to happen, something big." He turns back to look out the window. Either of them say anything, they're all tired in some way or another.
It's been four days since they received the ability to Bio Merge in the real world and they've been a skirmish each day since. They don't know where Ryo and Cyberdramon are, but he bets that they're out there killing off as many agents as they can. He knows that it's only a matter of time before Ryo and his partner show up at headquarters.
"Jeri's dad and step-mom are here." Renamon says as she walks over. "You think they'll help?" Rika asks. He turns and looks over at the pair. He looks thoughtful and he begins to think something over. "You think if Mr. Katou is seen by the D-Reaper, what do you think would happen?" He asks. Both Renamon and Rika look at him and Rika asks, "Why is that important?" "We know what parents mean to us, right? You think the D-Reaper would be distanced enough for me to get close to the brian? I mean, it wouldn't understand the concepts of mom and dad. It'll be scared of what it doesn't know." He says. "But what happens if it just decides to off Mr. Katou?" Rika asks. "I'm don't need more then one Digimon to come with me and if you can find Justimon, they'll help out with protection duty. It's not like we have anything to lose." He says. "Only you." Rika says simply. He sighs and says, "I think it's worth the risk."
Rika looks away and Renamon looks thoughtful. "It might work." Renamon says. He looks over at Rika and says, "If you don't think it'll work, we don't have to go through with it." Rika says, "It looks like Mr. Katou is making our decision for us." He looks and watches as Mr. Katou storms up the stair and towards the elevator.
He nods and says, "Wish me luck." "How do you know where he's going?" Rika asks. He replies, "I just figured it's in him, is all. He feels guilty about something." He soon makes it out of the command room and into an empty room. He opens out his link with Guilmon and sends. 'I'll be back, Guilmon. Keep an eye on my parents, 'k?' He feels Guilmon's agreement. He soon takes out his D-Tector and is soon flying into the sky as Enlilmon.
He soars as high as he can over the city. He soon waits for something to happen. It takes a good twenty minutes, but he soon feels a surge happen and soon the emotions that surround the D-Reaper seem to freeze. He dives towards the two towers and hovers just outside the sphere. He reaches out for the energy around the brain and begins to increase the patterns of yellow and green that are within the patterns of red and black.
He moves slowly through the unstable 'skin' and into another layer. He turns and is surprise to see Beelzemon BM roped up on the side. Soon the cables faze out and Beelzemon BM begins to fall. He quickly picks up the mega and says, "Beelzemon! You need to be awake right now! You're heavy." The mega level Digimon stirs and soon says, "Who's there?" He lets go of the mega and soon Beelzemon is hovering of his own accord.
The mega frowns and soon Calumon says, "Jeri! It's Takato!" "Takato?" Beelzemon asks. "It's Enlilmon, right now." He says simply. He moves towards the bubble as Calumon keeps trying to get Jeri attention. He once more connects with the energy around the D-Reaper and again messes with its energy patterns.
He moves into the sphere with Jeri and says, "I have something that I need your help with." "Why do you need my help? I not strong enough to help anyone." Jeri mutters softly. "You are for this. I need your help to create Leomon's egg, Jeri. I need you to hold out your D-Ark so we can create it together." He says firmly. Jeri blinks rapidly at this and says, "But he's gone and he's not coming back. Just leave me alone!" "I have all of his data, Jeri. I just need you to believe that it'll work and it will, Jeri. Henry's worried about you." He says. "Everyone's worried, Jeri. Please have faith that this will work and it will. Don't you want to have him with you again?" He adds.
Jeri stiffens at that and slowly looks into his eyes. He can see the tears that Jeri has and says, "You really think it'll work?" He smiles and nods his head. "Of course! I used my D-Tector to store his data, Jeri. You read the translated pages of the book. All those Digimon that the Digidestine scan always were reborn." He says. "But you're just a Tamer, Takato." Jeri begins. "I'm also a Destine Jeri. Why else would I have two separate Digivices?" He says, Jeri smiles weakly at this and he helps her up off the floor.
Jeri looks more confident and determined. He summons his D-Tector as Jeri holds out her D-Ark. He points his Digivice at the D-Ark and an image of Leomon appears over his screen, then it's gone. Data begins to flow out of his Digivice and into Jeri's D-Ark. Once the transfer is completed, Jeri's D-Ark pulses and soon an egg appears on Jeri's screen. "Leomon…" Jeri says as she holds the Digivice to her chest. "Now, lets go." He says, he offers his hand to Jeri and she takes it.
"Isn't that the happiest thing you ever saw?" Calumon asks Beelzemon BM. "It sure is. Lets make like a leaf and leave." The mega says. He picks Jeri up bridal style and heads out of the bubble.
Just as they're getting close to the outer membrane, something hits him in the back. He cries out in pain and Beelzemon BM moves quickly and plucks Jeri out of the air. "Subject Jeri Katou is too valuable to leave. We still have need of her." A cold voice that sounds like Jeri says without a drop of emotion. He turns and glares at the drone. "Beelzemon, can you get Jeri out of here?" He asks without looking away from the agent. "No problem, goggle head." Beelzemon BM says.
"You are not going anywhere." The drone states, then it tries to go after Beelzemon BM. He gets between the Agent and Beelzemon BM with Hydra drawn. He attacks as Beelzemon BM breaks through membrane. He grinds his teeth as he receives hits from the drone. He uses Ebony Slash, taking out the drone's right arm, right up to the shoulder. The drone's attacks are furious as it attcks him.
They flutter around in a deadly pattern, each attacking and defending. He's getting weaker as he finds himself more and more on the defensive. He's out classed and knows it, but he doesn't trust the drone to wait around and let him Slide Evolve into Cerawmon.
Something happens and this causes the drone to pause. He turns around and watches, as the area where they're fighting slowly breaks apart. He receives a hit and is sent flying out into the dissolving membranes. He exits it as a human and is falling towards the large mass under him. He doesn't feel very well and he passes out.

He blinks as the green sun rises into a purple sky. He looks around the field confused. He finds oddly coloured and shaped flowers and the leaves. He slowly sits up and stares at the patches of blue and orange grass. He studies a passing pink cloud in the sky over head. He watches it for a few minutes, feeling the gentle wind move through his hair and over his skin.
He gets up off the mixture of blue and orange grass. He moves around the clearing, not really having any real destination in mind. He moves to what he thinks is east, the direction where the green sun had risen. He in time finds what look to be trees, only that they're a totally different colour then what he's used to. The bark looks to be navy blue with the leaves being yellow. He pause before entering into the forest, he looks back from where he woke at and then into the forest.
He finds that between the trees are patches of silvery blue ferns grow. He spies light red mushrooms with green spirals growing on one side of blue trees. He shakes his head in amusement as he continues on his way through the forest. He sees fallen trees ever so often, even flowers at times. He hears the sounds of a river ahead.
He makes his way towards the sound of the river, he climb over an old log and paused to notice a small tree already growing on the trunk of the tree. He was careful not to harm the young sprig as he went. He drops down off the large trunk and finds no trees blocking his path towards the stream.
He looks down as he moves towards the river and kneels down on the bank. He blinks as he stares at the image staring back at him. He looks over at the other images reflected in the river. 'So its not jus me.' He thinks as he stares at the barren looking trees that the river shows. He once more looks at his image.
His reflection from the river shows him with a pair of stubby looking horns growing just before his hairline. His eyes were almond shaped with amber slit pupils. He opens his mouth and looks at the fangs that are his teeth. He closes his mouth and traces the upside down green triangle on his forehead. The finger he's using looks clawed in the river. His ears are long and pointed.
He looks up once more and then scans around. He then looks back at his refection. He touches the water gently with his left hand. It doesn't ripple and he pulls it back out for a second. He gets up off the ground and walks into the river.
He slowly descends under the surface of the water. The world around him goes grey for a few minutes and then he finds himself falling through the air. He lands on flat on the ground, his arms out in front, holding him up off the ground. He coughs and sits down on the ground cross-legged.
He begins to study his surrounds. "No way." He says. He spots his two spirits in their totem forms. Each rests on a stone; the one with Enlilmon's totem on it was black. The other stone is white with Cerawmon's totem on it. He gets up off the ground and then notices the stone that stands between the white and black stone. This stone is mostly blue, but has spirals of black and white designs on it. He knows what this stone's to represent, but he doesn't see anything one it.
He walks over to his human spirit, Enlilmon, and picks it up. He takes it over to the middle stone and places it on it. He then moves and takes his beast spirit, Cerawmon, off the other stone. He takes it over towards the blue stone and places it by the totem of Enlilmon. The pair glow and a light over comes him. He blacks out.
)-()-(
He feels power flow around him and through him. "Spirit Evolution!" He cries once he takes out his D-Tector. Complex circlets of data circle around his one hand. He scans the complex codes, he soon finds himself feeling the raw power that Cerawmon contains as well the agility that Enlilmon naturally has.
"Kurashimon!" He shouts out, he opens his wings and pulls up from his fall. He turns his head slightly to find that his wings were a mixture of feathered wings of Enlilmon and the bat-like wings of Cerawmon. Metallic blue feathers growing out of the outside of the wing and the rest of the wing are different shades of brown. The wing membrane is a simple as a darker brown for the limb. Much like with Cerawmon's wing, he has a clawed 'thumb' on his wings. He then looks at his arms, he finds scarlet red arm guards with the portion over his hands are metallic blue. He has claws on each of his fingers.
He decides to skip the inspection of the rest of his body and focuses in on the attacking drone. He draws out Hydra and cries out, "Twin Lights!" One of the blades grows white as the other glows black. He slashes at the agent, slicing the thing in half with surprising ease. The effect on Hydra dispels and he sheaths his sword.
He turns to where he knows the others were having trouble with another drone. He smiles and takes off through the air as quickly as he can. He finds a towering agent that's pink with loads of yellow mouths all over it's body.
(----Rika----)
Surprisingly, once Takato left after Jeri's father entered the elevator, she told Henry what's happening and then left with Renamon. They hooked up with Ryo and Cyberdramon as they were just entering the building. She might not like Ryo, but she knew she would need back up. Ryo agreed to help and they soon were following the van that Mr. Katou stole.
They Bio Merged once they noticed this huge purple agent with a lot of yellow mouths all over the creature's body. They watch as the van stops and listen to Mr. Katou beg and plea to have Jeri returned to him. As the agent scans Mr. Katou, it soon repeats the word 'Father' over and over again.
She couldn't believe that Takato had been right about how the D-Reaper would act on seeing Jeri's dad. She only hopes that it'll give Takato enough time to get Jeri out of whatever prison the D-Reaper keeps Jeri in.
She pauses as something is sent through the air. They feel it and watch as it affects the agent. The agent freezes and changes colour for a good five minutes, then slowly returns to normal. It with draws its camera and begins to attack Mr. Katou. Justimon and them moved into action once the agent began the attack. One thing she just knows that will stay with her through out her life was the way the agent attack. It seems the yellow mouths were also balls and can be launched out of the body. Also the yellow ball mouths all had cords attached to them the agent, so that the drone can retrieve them again to reuse them.
After fighting for a few minutes, something occurs with the agent. It suddenly pulls all its mouths into its body and begins saying things like 'connection terminated,' 'subject missing,' and finally 'network down.' 'You think Takato did it?' She asks. 'It seems likely, doesn't it?' Renamon replies. She agrees and then they say, "What now?" Jusimon replies, "Take it out before it recovers seems like a good idea."
They look at the agent and she has to wonder just how to do that, for they can't seem to slip around to the back of the drone to cut the cord. They leap back as the agent begins to attack once more. As one, they grab Mr. Katou as they retreat from the agent. The van that Mr. Katou had stolen is crushed under the foot of the agent. It's quite a feat, considering the agent didn't seem to have a foot…
Then something catches their eye and they focus in on the blue and red figure flying towards them. "It that Takato?" She asks in her own voice. "It might be." Justimon replies. They leap off the ground and onto a roof. Soon the figure draws closer and they can get a better look at what kind of Digimon Takato can now transform into.
As the light hits parts of the wings, she can see blue shine from the back of the wing. The figure has a scarlet red chest plat with a black symbol on the right plat and a white shirt underneath. The figure also has metallic blue pants. Resting on the right hip seems to be a sword. They evade an attack from the agent and she finally sees more detail of Takato's newest from.
Growing out of Takato's forehead is a pair of short horns. Short silver hair flows freely in the air as the wind moves through it. She doesn't see a helmet in sight either. Takato's ears are slender and pointed. Under Takato's left eye is a black tattoo that looks two parallel lines. She spots a tail trailing behind Takato too. The boots that Takato's wearing are scarlet red with the heel and toe of the boots being metallic blue. Scarlet red armguards with metallic blue over the hands show fingers that are tipped with claws. Takato's eyes are still yellow in colour, same as when he's Enlilmon and Cerawmon. She also finally notices the metallic blue feathers growing on one side of Takato's wings. She guess that Takato's now stands a good seven and half feet tall and see can still see tan skin showing where there isn't any armour or clothing. Still not all that bulky, but defiantly muscular looking, this makes it easy for Takato move without too much trouble, weather its in the air or on the ground.
"About time you showed up, goggle head." She says in her own voice yet again. "Sorry I'm late, had trouble with the freaky clone. I'm Kurashimon now, the fusion of Enlilmon and Cerawmon." Kurashimon states. All in all, she's happy that nobody can see her blush as she admires Takato's newest form.
