The Book of Immortality

Where here now at chapter 11! And in this chapter were going airborne as Koushiro and Otomeza are going to fight on who'll get the

book. And for the first time, Otomeza's battle robot, Siren will show its fighting prowess against someone who could match its strength

on someone (better read on).

Yeah, yeah, I know. This is an ROD fic, and you're wondering why Digimon came butting in…well, it's a crossover. And this fic is

connected to both of my earlier fics, Koudoutai: The New Enemy (Detective School Q), and Fallen Angel (Digimon). Plus, both

Fallen Angel and The Book of Immortality are side stories to Koudoutai, so the Paper Sisters and the Chosen Children get a fair share of

exposure. And Maggie and Michelle have already displayed their wares, as well as Anita, and Nenene did a good job of protecting the

archeologist and his daughter, and Yumiko Readman herself will show up sometime here (or the next chapter or so). Until then, enjoy this

fic.

Battle In The Sky

In Menteith, at the city of Leny, chaos was reigning as Sasoriza, Mizugameza and Ohitsujiza plowed through city after city, leaving

hundreds of dead bodies in its wake, military and civilians, buildings toppled, and every path they crossed are laid in ruins, as they

continued to find Sora. Sora was still hiding inside the Leny Police Precinct as a way of protecting herself. The Scotland President was

extremely alarmed as the three unidentified armored intruders plowed through almost all of the military soldiers stationed at Menteith, all

their bodies were mangled, dismembered, and charred (Ohitsujiza used his Final Vent on two approaching tanks, which it exploded upon

connecting with the Final Vent. Some of the military soldiers were near the tanks, and the resulting explosion caught up with the soldiers,

who were aught in the explosion, as well as getting burned to death). The President then ordered more troops to head towards Menteith.

Koushiro and Kabuterimon are now in the aerial vicinity of Sutherland, Scotland. There were still being hounded by Otomeza, who was

right behind them. Both were flying for several hours non-stop, and Koushiro was wondering how the others were doing. He also

recalled about what the rest of the Zodiac are doing as they were battling Maggie and Michelle. But he is unaware that they (Maggie and

Michelle), as well as Mimi, were already defeated, and that the rest of the Zodiac are wrecking havoc.

Otomeza was getting weary at the wild goose chase, so she took her card reader, which was a rapier, and threw it at Koushiro, hitting

him on his right shoulder. Koushiro screamed in pain, and fell from Kabuterimon. Kabuterimon flew down and got Koushiro, who still has

the book. He then took the card reader off from Koushiro's shoulder and threw it away. Otomeza then retrieved her card reader and

flew back towards her targets. Koushiro glared at Otomeza for her actions, and told her that she'll never get her hands on the book.

Otomeza laughed and was going to get at Koushiro when Angemon and Takeru appeared. Takeru then surveyed Koushiro, who was

bleeding from his right shoulder. Takeru then boarded Kabuterimon and tended to Koushiro's wounds.

Angemon told Otomeza to turn herself in now or face the consequences. Otomeza laughed, and took a card from her card deck and

inserted it to her card reader. "ADVENTO". A yellow square appeared from the sky and out comes Siren. Everyone, including

Angemon, were awestruck by its appearance, as siren resembles closely to Angewomon, sans the mask, as Siren's face was shown.

Siren then took Angemon by surprise, by lynching towards him, punching him on the gut. Angemon wobbled backwards, but recovered,

and retaliated. "Heaven's Knuckle!". This send Siren a few meters away from where Angemon is standing. Takeru then told Angemon to

use the Heaven's Gate to rid of her, and that they can apprehend the rest. But Otomeza somewhat anticipated this, after a few months of

watching the footages shown to them by the 2nd Digimon Emperor back at their base. Otomeza took another card and inserted it to her

card reader. "SILENT VENTO". Siren then approached the flying Digimons and opened its mouth, and uttered a feminine pitch that

sounds like an experienced soprano. Even Takeru and Koushiro felt the sound waves emanating from Siren. And to their surprise,

Angemon and Kabuterimon reverted back to Patamon and Tentamon, and both the Digimon and their human partners fall downwards.

Koushiro accidentally lost grip of the book due to sudden events. Otomeza flew down and got the book. She was pleased with this that

she then contacted To-Rasu and told him that she has the book. She then flew off, heading back to Aberdeen. Patamon and Tentamon

tried to Digi-volve, but for some reason, they couldn't, and they resorted to their remaining energies and tried to grab onto Takeru and

Koushiro, but their weight was too much for the two small Digimon to handle, and the four continued to plummet to the ground, still

10000 thousand feet away.

Sorry if you feel that this fic is more like Digimon than ROD, like I said, it's part of the story. Be patient, 'coz Yumiko Readman will

finally enter the fray.

Better hold on to your seats, as the conclusion is a few words away. As for what ending might be, can't tell just yet, as the good guys will

still have to recover the book.

Reviews are welcome. No flames please.
