Chapter 4
They stopped to stretch their legs after five days traveling by Trailmon. They also need more supplies, for they have eaten the ones they received before they left the castle. He's also happy that he has his money from his time as a postal worker.
They moves through the open market, they check out different stalls and even got mobbed a bit when some of them learnt that Takuya, Koichi, and Kouji were the Legendary Warriors. He had to watch as the teens left him in the dust. It had taken him about ten minutes to find them, he only had to feel out energies of their elements.
He smirks as he watches the older boys climb down off the roof. He leans against the wall, pretty relaxed too. "That was fun." Kouji says dryly. "And what was you're plan, Kouji? Just ran through town and hope they'll tire of the chase?" Takuya asks once they were on the ground. Koichi says, "We should be getting back to Angler. We do have what we came for, right?" The other two both send each other a glare and then nod in agreement with that. "Then lets get moving!" Takuya says and leads them out onto the street. He shares an amused look with Koichi before following the older goggle wearing boy.
)-()-(
It took them a grand total of three weeks to get to the terminal that's closest to the continent of Darkness. Once they get out of the car, they said their good byes to Angler. He sighs as the Trailmon leaves. He then turns to look at the land covered in darkness.
He cocks his head to his right and studies the darkness that hangs over the land like mist. He then looks between the older boys and notices their reactions to the land before them. He notices the unreadable looks on their faces and wonders just how long they'll be here at this point looking towards the land covered in Darkness.
He stiffens and then tackles Koichi and Takuya. "Gloom Dust!" Is heard and a mist of dust flies pass where they had been standing. He turns over and blinks as he notices the plant Digimon standing by a red devil looking Digimon. He notes the X marking on the pair's foreheads and before he could as questions, the cartoon devil cries out, "Ruby Eye!"
Once more they moves dodge the beams of energy aimed at them. Once more the plant Digimon that looks like a Palmon attacks. Kouji fends off the attack by grappling the plant Digimon. He moves between the red Digimon and Koichi. Just as the red flying Digimon, he hears Takuya shout out, "Spirit Evolution!" This causes the devil Digimon to pause in his attack.
He turns his head slightly and soon Takuya cries out, "Agunimon!" He stares at the warrior of Fire. He grins as Agunimon leaps towards his direction. He pulls back to give the two Digimon room to battle. He turns to find that Koichi wasn't behind him any more. He sighs and then takes out his D-Tector and summons the data ringlet on his left hand. "Spirit Evolution!" He shouts out.
He feels the surge of energy flow through him and then around him. He feels as his shoulders gain more weight and he cries out, "Enlilmon!" Everyone paused to take a glance at him. "That's awesome." Agunimon exclaims. He takes out Hydra and flies over to where the odd-looking Palmon is groping with Kouji and Koichi.
The smaller Digimon tries to get out of his way, but couldn't. He uses the flat of his blade to knock the plant Digimon out. Kouji and Koichi move the plant Digimon off of them. He turns and watches as Agunimon and the cartoon Digimon fight it out. He sighs and turns back to examine the rookie.
He rolls the Digimon onto her back. He places Hydra close to the X mark that is on the forehead. He blinks in surprise as the X flashes red and then the X fades. He sheaths Hydra and transforms back into his usual self. He turns and watches as Agunimon finish off the red devil. Agunimon summons his D-Tector and scans the ring of data that appears around the black form of the red Digimon. Soon a Digi Egg appears and it flies off.
Agunimon sighs and turns to look at him. Then glances over at the odd-looking Palmon. "She's fine." He tells them. Agunimon nods and transforms back into his usual self. "I wonder why they attacked. They didn't really give a reason either." Koichi says. "I think it's that X mark. I held my sword to the mark and it flashed red before disappearing." He says. Kouji confirms that it's true, for while they were talking Kouji headed over to the fallen Digimon to see if she's alright.
The other teens head over and found that he's right. He sighs as the Digimon begins to wake. "Huh?" The plant Digimon says dazed as she sits up. "You ok?" Takuya asks. Within a blink of an eye, the rookie leaps up and takes a defensive stance. They back up to give the plant Digimon her room.
(----Takuya----)
It took Aruraumon a good thirty minutes to calm down. This gave him time to think about Takato's human spirit, Enlilmon. He has to admit that Takato did look kick ass as Enlilmon. He also had to agree that the silvery angel wings were a nice touch. The blue armour with silver trim works too. Though the sword was very original, he has never seen a sword with twin blades over lapping each other.
He glances at the younger boy and grins. He's kind of glad that Takato's with them, though he would rather have JP, Tommy, and Zoe with them. It's nothing personal to Takato; it's just that they're his friends and also Legendary Warriors. He knows what they can do and has worked with them before. Takato's an unknown factor, for he doesn't know what Takato's true abilities are. He knows that his human spirit uses the element of Darkness and that his beast spirit uses Light. They never got too much information about Takato's fusion form though. They didn't really quiz Takato a whole lot on his spirits truth be told and he doesn't feel up to it either.
He glances at Koichi and then at Kouji. They both look amused as Takato talks with Aruraumon. Oddly enough, Aruraumon seems to find Takato easier to talk to out of the four of them. Takato finishes and soon the plant Digimon says a few words and Takato just nods. They get up off the ground and Aruraumon begins to follow the tracks away from the land of Darkness.
Takato walks over towards them and the kid says, "It seems that some Digimon called MetalPhantomon is gathering an army within the Dark Continent. I think he uses the X mark to keep the troops loyal." He stares at the young goggle wearing kid in shock. "That can't be right! Nobody should be able to do something like that!" Koichi shouts out. Takato shrugs and says, "It's happening whether you want it to or not." Kouji's narrows his eyes at this and asks, "You don't seem surprise about some Digimon being able to control Digimon." Takato looks Kouji in the eye and replies, "You should know by now that anything can happen. As to why I'm not surprise is simple, there is this cartoon show about Digimon where I come from. During the first season this Digimon by the name of Devimon used this black gears to control Digimon. Then during the second season one of the characters by the name of Ken used control towers to keep Digimon from Digivolving and then used dark rings and dark spirals to turn Digimon into his slaves. After that, Ken feels guilty about what he did under the influence of the Dark Spore. So some Digimon using a mark to control Digimon isn't that far fetched compared to those things."
He nods at this, though he was kind of surprise to learn about a cartoon show that had Digimon as characters, but then he kind of remembers the Yu-Gi-Oh! Show based off of the card game. Kouji relents and Koichi relaxes. "Nice to know that the good guys win out in the end." He says. Takato nods and says; "I also never heard of a MetalPhantomon and without Guilmon around, I can't give you info on his attacks and such when we confront this guy." He places a hand on Takato's shoulder and says, "No sweat! We have plenty of time to think up a course of action before we meet this guy. So lets get going!" Takato smiles and nods his head in agreement with his speech.
He glances at the other two and they also nod. He lets go of Takato's shoulder and leads them towards the land covered in darkness. He also wouldn't mind having Takato's partner around either. It would be a great help in the times that will come.
(----Nobody's----)
Guilmon hums as he watches as Grani now rests on the floor. It had taken them about a whole week to move Grani out of the hold and into the large room used to repair robotic Digimon. He watches as Datamon orders some Ogremon around. As two Ogremon hold up a red panel as another one welds it onto Grani.
He frowns as he remembers what Grani's front had looked like once they were able to get Grani level. Wires and internal parts that should be covered were laid bare from the crash landing and from when that Digimon attacked. It has taken many of the Digimon around here a long time to examine Grani to see if anything was damaged. For a good month Grani had Digimon fixing and replacing parts and wires, but it never affected Grani's memory or ability to talk with him.
The red rookie turns towards the door and watches as BlackGuilmon enters into the room. He waves for his friend to sit with him. The black and red version of him smiles and does so. "Looks like Grani's repairs are nearing completion." BlackGuilmon says in his soft voice. He nods and smiles brightly. BlackGuilmon was quiet and shy compared to him. He had been kind of stunned when he first saw the other rookie for the first time.
Once more the red rookie turns to watch as the Ogremon finish up with that panel. The black rookie asks, "What to take a walk through the gardens?" Guilmon thinks about it and then nods. The pair of virus Digimon get off the bench and head out the workroom. The red rookie opens the door and lets his black counter part head out of the room first. Then exits the room and close the door behind him.
As they move through the hall, the red virus thinks about all he's learnt being from being here. Gallantmon had decided that he needed to go to school to learn more things. He remembered that Takato went to school too and didn't have a problem with it. He was surprised to find that he liked going to school too. There was so much things that he was learning and he hopes that Takato would be impressed with what he's learnt here.
He frowns as he thinks of his best friend and partner. He really misses his creator a whole lot and knew that Takato misses him too. He also knows that Takato would be very proud of him with how he's got a handle on things without him.
(----Takato----)
He stares into the campfire. It's his turn to be look out and he can't help but feel tired. He pokes a log so it's closer to the centre of the fire. The fire gives off a large crack at this.
'I can't believe how hard it is for Takuya and them to get rid of that mark! It looks like I'm the one that's going to be removing them from now on. I can't believe it's only been two weeks since we first encountered Aruraumon. It feels like a life time though…' He thinks.
He sighs and lets the memory of their next encounter after their fight with Aruraumon and Boogimon.
(-/-/-)
They entered the forest last night and Koichi had last watch. He woke to a scream and his eyes flew open to find Koichi being held in the air by his throat. The Digimon in question was a NeoDevimon. He watches as Kouji rams the Digimon from behind. Takuya picks up one of the logs from the fire and banishes in NeoDevimon's face.
He sighs and takes out his D-Tector. He shouts out, "Spirit Evolution!" He scans the complex ringlets of data that appears on his left hand. Within a minute he roars out, "Cerawmon!" He rears up on his hind legs and spins around as quickly as he can. "Tail Mace!" He hisses out.
He hears a grunt of pain as his tail sends the ultimate level Digimon flying. He rests on his four limbs; his wings are tightly folded and he then watches NeoDevimon picks himself up off the ground. "Be careful, he's an ultimate." He tells the others. "What does that have to do with anything?" Takaya asks. "It means that he's just a level under mega." He replies. "Great. Just what we need." Kouji says. Soon the others have transformed into their beast forms.
NeoDevimon seems to disappear into the shadows surrounding the camp. He snarls as he scans the area beyond the light of the fire. "You know what he's capable of?" KendoGarurumon asks. "He's an synthetic fallen angel Digimon. I believe one of his attacks is Stun Claw." He answers. "Good to know." BurningGreymon replies.
"Deep Sorrow!" NeoDevimon cries out. A mist flows towards them and before they could do anything, he's reliving his saddest moments of his life. He begins to feel sad and depressed. He also blinks as he watches as an image of Rika appears within his mind. He blinks at the look of betray that shines in her eyes. It affects him and he tries to reach out to her, but Rika disappears. He cries out, "Rika!"
He races through a hall way and into a room. He freezes as he sees Rika on the ground with blood all around her. He says, "No, No, this can't be real. It's not real!" He screams the last part. He feels energy flow through his as he clutches his head. "This isn't happening!" He howls out.
He feels the energies of Light and Darkness swirl around him and the room fades out. He opens his eyes and snaps at NeoDevimon's arm before it comes into contact with BurningGreymon. He snaps his head to the right and lets go as NeoDevimon is sent flying. He races towards the fallen Digimon and uses his right arm to send the Digimon flying through the air once more. He feels energy flow through his whole being and he hisses as NeoDevimon tries to hide in the shadows.
He snorts and bites down hard on NeoDevimon's shoulder and began to shake the ultimate level Digimon around like a rag doll. He didn't care if as he moves around that NeoDevimon hit the trees or not. He was too busy being enraged by the image of Rika's dead body on the ground with blood around her body.
He soon blinks as he realized that his jaws were closed and that NeoDevimon has been deleted. The energy and the picture within his head faded and he slowly makes his way towards the camp. Once he reached the others, he transformed back and fell fast asleep as Takuya and Kouji move to catch him.
(-/-/-)
He kind of told the others that he defeated NeoDevimon, he's glad that they didn't quiz him about it though. Though he had to wonder just why the attack showed him Rika dead. He sighs and turns to look over at where Kouji and Takuya are. They have been kind of sleeping close together ever since that time, he also found that Koichi was amused at it, but either of them has commented on it though.
He did know that both Kouji and Takuya were getting closer to each other over the pass two weeks, but he kind of wonder how Koichi would react if he tells the teen that he believed that Kouji and Takuya might be boyfriends. But then he wonders if maybe he got the wrong impression and that they're comforting each other about nightmares, for unlike him, the others still haven't totally shaken the effects of that attack. It also doesn't help that they're fighting every single day that they entered into the forest.
He sighs and looks up to look at the twin moons. He runs a hand through his hair and was happy that he had a hair cut at that last town they visited. Though his head was still longer then what he was use to, but he can handle it. He also wonders what Rika will think about it. He shook his head and figured that the non-stop battles were getting to him. He just hopes that whatever it is will disappear once he has enough time to relax and recuperate.
(----Nobody's----)
MetalPhantomon frowns as he thinks about how everyone of his minions keeps getting defeated by these plucky humans. What's worst is it seems that the younger one has the power to dispel his mark with ease! He needs to either destroy them or mark them, but he doesn't like the way these humans seem to be stronger then any real Digimon.
He turns and motions for the guard to come forward. "Do you know where to find Digimon that can counter these humans?" He asks his slave. "Doubtful. They are Legendary Warriors." The slave replies. He frowns and says, "What do you mean by 'Legendary' Warriors?" "There are ten of them and they represent Fire, Steel, Water, Ice, Lightning, Earth, Wind, Wood, Light, and Darkness." The slave replies. The X-Antibody frowns as he considers this. "So we have Fire, Light, and Darkness. But who is this other one then? What does he represent?" He murmurs under his breath. The metal Digimon waves for the slave to go back to his duty and he heads to his room.
To be continued …
