Hi! Welcome to Chapter 3 of this fic. Again I'll remind you tat this will be my last side story fic to Koudoutai: The New Enemy. But for
the first time, I'll be making a Ryu-Megumi fic. But their pairing is just a team-up like they did in the TV series (one involving a hidden
village, and the other about the Collector murders in college where Kuniko Touya studies there before joining DDS). And like those two
cases, Ryu and Megumi will go undercover to apprehend one of the Zodiac members who uses his resources to hatch a plan of his own:
murder by video games.
This fic was inspired by:
1) The recently aired US movie, Stay Alive, where a group of teenagers were killed when their players were killed in the game, they were
killed in real life,
2) The Tokusatsu TV series Kamen Rider Ryuki, where one of the 13 Riders kills his victims through a video game.
Again I'll be basing this fic not only on Stay Alive movie, but also on the TV series, Kamen Rider Ryuki, where one of the Kamen Riders
killed his victims through a video game, and those elements help me inspire in making this fic. And the elements of both the movie and the
Kamen rider TV series will be infused here, but in a different way.
I know you'll be disappointed about Ryu and Megumi not being a couple in this fic, but this fic is connected to my main fic, Koudoutai.
And in that fic, Kyuu and Megumi are already a couple, so I couldn't make Ryu and Megumi a couple in this fic for doing so may cause
confusion among readers. Their team-up as undercover detectives is as close as I can do.
So expect some blood and violence since I'll be basing this fic on the movie Stay Alive, but first, expect the Zodiac to pop out in this fic,
'coz one of them is a mastrer hacker. If you already read Koudoutai: The New Enemy, then you know who's involved in this scam.

Going UndercoverLater that night, Ryu and Megumi were dressed in punk clothes (and wigs), and went to the ware house where the man whom Kyuu and
Kazuma met at the Konami Computer College several months ago (see Koudoutai: The New Enemy). Koushiro Izumi (from Digimon
Adventure 02) gave them two pairs of "special" contact lenses in case they came across the game and might get exposed to whatever
side effects it may cause. Earlier in the day, it was discovered that Kazuma wasn't affected the software games' side effects that caused a
gamer to act irrationally was due to the lenses in Kazuma's eye glasses, and that the so-called side effects was aimed for children.
Koushiro then suggested that the side effect might "mutate", and may affect teenagers and soon the adults. There Ryu and Megumi mixed
themselves with other customers (ranging from 13 to 30 years old) who were there to buy games that Kazuma developed. Ryu and
Megumi suspect that the seller here may have bought Kazuma's software games, duplicated them, and put some sort of chip or
something that would affect the gamers' minds. Then the man in charge came out. A young, college student, who appeared to be near his
20's, and was wearing a robe that would resemble Harry Potter. It was Jun Shibaura, who is secretly the Zodiac member, Ohitsujiza,
and he then made an auction on all the games available. Ryu and Megumi kept silent throughout the auction bid, which went on to sell
games to the highest bidder. The auction took only 30 minutes.
After everything were sold out, Shibaura was now Y 10,000 richer, and then have some men brought out several huge TV's. Shibaura
then told his clients that they can test their games at once. There the clients who bought the games immediately played it. Ryu and Megumi
noticed that Shibaura put on a smoke-colored shades before the games were activated.
After nearly three hours of non-stop playing (it was 12 mn already), Ryu and Megumi (who hid themselves inside a barrel) noticed
something that they never expected. Some of the clients began to stutter, and began to act like the games' villains and monsters, and
began to attack each other. Some imitated the moves in a fighting game, some imitated the characters in RPG, like slashing an opponent
with a bladed weapon, while others acted like monsters in other RPG games, biting and disemboweling other people. In less than five
minutes, blood was splattering all over, and internal organs (heart, lungs, colons, intestines, liver, digestive systems, and other gorish
scenes were there in front of her eyes) were thrown near her vicinity. Megumi used her will power to keep herself from screaming, while
Ryu was gritting his teeth at the cruelty Shibaura made. At the same time, Ryu sent a text message to Kazuma and Koushiro, who were
both at CLAMP School, staying overnight in case they were needed, and told them to send reinforcements. Luckily, Class C (composing
the six Chosen Children from Digimon Adventure 02), were there on standby and immediately went to the place after getting the go-
signal from Koushiro.
Back at the warehouse, the violence between the clients at the auction bid went rabid, in their zeal, they knocked down a barrel, and
Megumi fell off the barrel, her wig also fell off. Shibaura recognized Megumi, but smiled deviously as the possessed clients turned their
attention on her. Ryu, seeing this, also jumped off the barrel, and rolled a few barrels to block the attackers' path, and grabbed Megumi
and ran off, who was nearly harmed, as one of the attackers grabbed her clothes. During the struggle, Megumi's skirt was ripped off, and
to her embarrassment, she has to run only in her shirt, and shoes, as her panties was there for exposure. "Mmm-mmm. Pink with polka
dots. She's one hot cutie." Shibaura drooled, seeing her shapely curves and legs. Ryu and Megumi kept running, as the possessed
gamers were hot on their tail. Ryu recalled his promise to Kyuu that he would protect her.
To Be Continued…Ok. The chase has begun, and that was very violent. Megumi will have problems going to sleep once this case is solved. But how will
they do that when they're being chased by possessed people who are out their for blood?
And will the Digimons get there on time? If they do, how will they stop them without harming them?
Watch out for the next chapter, and while waiting, please leave a review.
And in the mean time, read and review the other fics that I mentioned above. It will help you understand the story better. And believe me,
the story is good, and that I promise you.
