File 02: Apemon Appears! Seifer's Fight.
"Seifer you said that there was a cloud above my house when you carried Alette in right?" Hotaru asked as the team walked through the forest not far from the meadow that they had arrived in.
"Yes, I believe that Alette's scream was the exact same time you accessed the program."
"So you are saying that those clouds aren't supernatural?" Stenr asked.
"I believe they are digital, some sort of beacon for a gate. However I believe it only appeared because Hotaru's dad's program was trying to open a gate, when the digital gates were intended only to be accessed by the Chosen Children. It would make perfect sense, someone hacks the program allowing it to by pass an identification code, but in doing so planted some marker in the program." Seifer said as he leaned against a tree to rest for a tiny bit.
"So in other words, the reason we are here is also the reason the beacons are in the program?"Alette asked unsure of herself.
"That is my theory, also if we can find a way home we will now be able in theory to safely access a gate with these D-Cell's I am certain that they would act as some sort of identification. Basically whatever planted those beacons also made it so anyone could in theory open a gate, but only the chosen ones can pass through a gate." Seifer explained as they continued through the forest.
Inside a dark cave somewhere in the digital world three shadowed figures stood staring down at a large yellow ape digimon. "Unwanted humans are now in our world, it is up to you to take them out." One of the three said.
"I understand master." the digimon said as it bowed before walking out of the cave.
"They must be stopped." One of the remaining two shadowed digimon said to the other two.
"I know my brother but we mustn't draw attention to ourselves." The final one of the three said long after the Apemon was out of the cave.
"Mega Bone Stick!" A loud voice called out as a gigantic bone slammed into the ground near Seifer and Leormon.
"What threw that?" Hotaru asked as Seifer's Orange D-Cell, with black buttons and strap, started to beep and projected an image of a large yellow ape with a giant bone on his back.
"Apemon, an Adult level Animal type digimon whose attacks are Mega bone stick and Metallic Fur." The D-Cell said as the digimon's hologram spun around.
"Seifer, should I go take him down?" Leormon asked as the other three Child level digimon readied their weaponry. Commandramon made sure his M16 had a full magazine, Kudamon quickly made sure that her body was ready to fight by coiling up so that he could easily strike. DemiDevimon flapped his wings and got ready to confront the Adult level Apemon. Seifer smiled at Leormon and nodded his head in approval and Leormon got ready to bite the digimon that was heading there way.
Apemon swung his fist at the children digimon and knocked them all back into trees. He grabbed his large bone and swung it around, knocking several trees down.
"Leo Claw!" Leormon shouted as he leaped onto Apemon's back and started to claw it up.
"DCD Bomb." Commandramon said from somewhere within the heavy tree coverage as he tossed a small bomb at Apemon. The bomb landed at Apemon's feet then exploded.
"Demi Dart!" DemiDevimon shouted as he fired a dart, trying to get Apemon's attention.
"Mega Bone Stick!" Apemon shouted as he swung his bone at DemiDevimon, knocking to the ground.
"Bullet Whirlwind!" Kudamon shouted as she shot into the air and started to spin, she slammed down into Apemon knocking him down. However Apemon quickly took his bone and sent Kudamon flying, the only two that weren't injured now were Leormon and Cammandramon.
"Leormon!" Seifer shouted as Apemon swung his bone down at the Child level digimon, who was able to evade it due to his partner's warning.
"Metallic Fur!" Apemon screamed as his fer started to shine, he glanced at Seifer and swung his arm, as this happened some of his fur shot at Seifer.
"Seifer!" Leormon shouted as he intercepted the attack. As soon as Leormon was hit Seifer's D-cell started to emit an orange light.
"Wha...what is happening?" Seifer stuttered as the light shot from his D-Cell and into Leormon.
"Leormon shinka ... GranLiamon!" Leormon shouted as he became a full grown lion with a red mane that had six pony tails at the bottom. GranLiamon also had four golden earrings, two in each ear, two tails with red fringes of hair on the end. His emerald jewel from Leormon's necklace was now in the golden chest plate that GranLiamon wore.
"GranLiamon, a Holy Beast digimon, who is the Adult form of Leormon. His attacks are Thunder of Kings, Steel Strike, and Bolt Claw." Seifer's D-Cell said as it displayed the image of the digimon.
"That is Leormon?" Alette said in amazement.
"Seifer stay back. Thunder of Kings!" GranLiamon shouted as his mane started to spark, and a blast of electricity shot from it and slammed into Apemon knocking him back back through several trees.
"Mega Bone Stick!" Apemon shouted as he lept forward and swung his bone down at the lion digimon.
"Bolt Claw!" GranLiamon shouted as his front claws started to glow and spark with electricity, then he dodged the bone and struck Apemon in the chest with the electrically charged claws. When this happend Apemon started to convert to data, which blew away in the digital wind.
Seifer ran over to GranLiamon who started to glow, then reverted to Leormon."Are you alright?"
"Of course, just a little exhausted, that was the first time I've ever been an Adult level digimon before.
"So that is what these D-Cell's are for." Stenr said staring at the green D-Cell on his wrist.
"Aparently their main function is to aid our partner's in evolving, inorder to defeat stronger digimon." Hotaru said as the group continued through the forest.
Back in the dark cave the three shadowy digimon were busy discussing Apemon's defeat. "Apemon failed!" one of them said in an angry tone. "I know, and what is worse is one of those child level digimon evolved into an adult level digimon." The second figure said outraged.
"Well my brothers, I believe our next attack must be more thought out." The third figure said in a stern tone.
"So who do you think we should use next?"
"We'll need someone who can ambush them with ease."
"Yes, a digimon skilled in the art of stealth."
"I have a feeling that Apemon didn't want to attack us." Stenr said as they sat at their newest campsite outside of the forest.
"What do you mean, why else would he attack?" Alette asked slightly confused.
"Simple, he had no motive to attack us, so maybe. Just maybe whoever, or whatever placed those becons, that Seifer mentioned earlier, doesn't want us to be in this world." Stenr said as he stretched.
"In other words Apemon was being controlled." Hotaru said yawning.
"Exactly, it would make perfect sense, Apemon doesn't look like he would attack for no reason. I don't know why, I guess it is just my gut feeling.
Next Time
The group is ambushed by two adult level digimon. When DemiDevimon and Kudamon are taken out it is up to Leormon and Commandramon to protect the entire team.
