Hello. It's raining arrows in this chapter, as Michelle and Iteza will display their archery prowess as they squared off for the first time,
and for the first time Iteza will display the power of his weapons.
War of the ArchersMimi and Sasoriza, Togemon and Scorponok. The four combatants fought back and forth. And their fight moved from Lake Arkaigside
to St. Andrews. Their fight has caught the attention of several bystanders, and watched in awe as the four combatants fought
ferociously. Nenene, and the Walkers run off onto the direction of Badenoch, as To-Rasu chased them down with his weapons.
Michelle then summoned her papers to form a bow and arrow. She then fired her arrows towards her opponent, but the armored
individual retaliated by shooting explosive arrows from his card reader, and the paper arrows exploded. Michelle was surprised to see
that her opponent was also an archer. Michelle then surveyed her opponent. "You must be Iteza". "I am". Iteza replied. "And Iteza
means "Sagittarius", and that means you're an archer." Michelle answered back. "Nothing personal, but you got into our way, so I have
no choice but to eliminate you.". Iteza then fired a volley of explosive arrows, causing Michelle to scamper away for cover. As Iteza got
closer, Michelle used her paper abilities to form a crossbow of her own, and managed to hit Iteza. Iteza staggered, and immediately
took a card and inserted it to his card reader. "NASTY VENTO". A yellow square appeared from the sky, and out came a mechanical
bat. It was Iteza's battle robot, Dark Wind. Dark Wind then emitted a sonic wave that causes Michelle to feel dizzy. Iteza then took the
opportunity to beat the bloody hell out of her. Although bloodied, Michelle managed to fight back, and used her bow to strike Iteza at
his waist, hitting his card deck. As Iteza staggered back, Michelle run off, heading towards the direction of Badenoch. But Iteza has
some tricks up his sleeve. He inserted a card into his card reader and prepared himself. "FINAL VENTO". Dark Wind then mounted
itself onto Iteza's back, and its wings expanded, and flapped towards Michelle, sending several shards of darts and small arrows
towards her, seriously injuring her.
Meanwhile, Sasoriza was having a hard time dealing with Mimi, as she always tries to keep him from drawing a card. Togemon and
Scorponok fought to a stand still, as they fought back and forth, never backing down.
Koushiro and Tentamon were bewildered as Otomeza managed to catch up with them, even though they have already passed several
states in Scotland.
Maggie's paper "monsters" managed to keep Mizugameza's Venosnaker and Ohitsujiza's Metal-Ohitsu at bay, but Maggie was
somewhat cornered, as she was surrounded by her four opponents.
As Iteza was about to get near Michelle, several police and SWAT team approaches the scene, and cordoned off Michelle, carrying her
away, while the SWAT team ordered Iteza to turn himself in. Iteza laughed and inserted another card. "FINAL VENTO". And Dark
Wind appeared again, and transformed into a huge bow. Iteza leaptonto a transformed Dark Wind, and, acting as a human arrow,
descended to the ground, and moments later, an explosion occurred. Several bodies of the SWAT team and policemen were charred
and dismembered beyond recognition. Only Michelle was left alive, and was in bad shape.
Iteza looked down at her and said, "You should have stayed out of our way, but you brought this upon yourself. So goodbye." Iteza
then inserted another card. "FINAL VENTO". Iteza leapt into the air, and Dark Wind mounted onto Iteza's back, its wings turned into
a cape, and flew high into the sky. Iteza then descended, and his "cape" wrapped around him, and taking the form of a huge arrow. As
soon as Iteza hits the ground, an explosion occurred, and after a few seconds, the smoke cleared, and the charred and dismembered
remains of the SWAT team and policemen were laid on the ground. He was then baffled that Michelle was nowhere to be found.
Michelle miraculously survived, thanks to the arrival of Junior, who was sent here via the Digimon gate. With him were Hikari and
Angewomon, who proceeded to take on Iteza. Iteza was about to fire his explosive arrows but Angewomon blocked it with his right
wrist, and the arrows dropped to the ground, while Angewomon's left hand hit Iteza at his gut. As Iteza staggers, Angewomon then
went for the kill. "Holy Arrow!". The Holy Arrow struck Iteza's gut, sending him on he ground, it was then that Iteza realized that he
landed on the explosive arrows that fell on the ground. Before he could react, the arrows exploded, killing Iteza on the spot.
Angewomon shielded Hikari from the explosion. As the smoke cleared, there was nothing left of Iteza, except the remains of the broken
pieces of his card deck.
Meanwhile, Mimi and Sasoriza continues to fight back and forth, neither one of them giving up.

Iteza is out, but the rest of the Zodiac are still there. Mimi and Sasoriza are still at it, Mizugameza and Ohitsujiza still pinning on Maggie,
while Koushiro and Kabuterimon are trying to outmaneuver Otomeza. At least Angewomon came right on time.
Expect this fic to be a bit longer because, as I said, I downloaded the map of Scotland. So now I can thresh out the battle scenes of this
fic on several locations in Scotland (North, South, east and West).
And expect Angemon, Garudamon and Garurumon (Takeru, Sora, and Yamato) to pop out in the next chapter to lend some assistance
to their fellow chosens and detectives.
Reviews are welcome. No flames please.
