Chapter 5:Great Escape and Ambush

Patamon flies at high speed, trying to find any members of Class Q and/or A, as well as the rest of the

Chosen Children. Luck was on his side, as he finds Ryu, Kyuu and Megumi holding hands and are about to

leave his house. "Kyuu, Megumi! Hikari needs help! She's been jailed for a crime she didn't commit!".

Ryu, Kyuu and Megumi were shocked by the news, and Megumi sent a text message to the rest of Class Q

and A about this, and the three followed Patamon and headed to the precinct.

Meanwhile, Takeru sent a text message to Taichi and his parents about the situation, and then urged Sudo

to at least remove Hikari's handcuffs so that she can treat her bleeding nose, but Sudo wouldn't budge.

"Sorry, but she's a dangerous suspect. And you saw what happened there, so there's no telling what she'll

do here, so sorry." Takeru started to yell at him, and, smirking, Sudo motions for his subordinates to

apprehend Takeru. But a hissing and growling voice interrupted. "I don't think so, Jackass.". Turning

around, it was Daisuke Motomiya, looking very angry. You call yourself a member of D. D. S., and this is

what you did! V-Mon!" As if on cue, V-Mon headbutted Sudo and his men, while Daisuke grabbed the

keys and gave it to Takeru. Takeru looked bewildered, but Daisuke told him to get Hikari out. Takeru did

and he and Hikari ran out of the precinct. Sudo and some other policemen were about to give chase, but

Daisuke and V-Mon blocked their path. "That's far as you can go. I can't believe that a D. D. S. staff would

stoop this low.". Sudo scoffed and said, "And what can a newbie like you can do?". Daisuke said, "This.

Show them, V-Mon!"

---Start Digimon Evolve Sequence---

V-Mon changes…to X V-Mon!

---End Digimon Evolve Sequence---

X V-Mon then started to stepped forward, and Sudo and his men were staggering backwards, when a voice

shouted. "Enough!" turning around, it was Morihiko Dan and Shuno Katagiri standing by the entrance.

Sudo and his subordinates stood and saluted. Sudo then approached Dan and said, "Sir, this student here

just caused the escape of a suspect and…". But Dan cut him off, almost yelling at him. What were you

thinking, Sudo! Why detain Kamyia here when you can hold her at D. D. S.! What's this I heard about

slamming her to the wall and handcuffing her along the way? You didn't even said her rights! We'll

discuss this later, but right now…". "Right now, sir come with us at D. D. S.. There's something that I want

to show you.". Dan looked surprised at Daisuke's tone, but nevertheless agreed and went to D. D. S. with

him. Sudo looked suspicious. He wondered what Daisuke is up to, and wondered if he's on to him or

something. But in the meantime, Sudo went to the restroom, and locked the door. Since the restroom his

huge, and making sure that no one is around, he took out his card deck and uttered the word "Henshin!".

Sudo transformed into a man with brown armor, whose appearance resembles that of a human crab. Sudo

was then revealed as Kaniza.Kaniza then activated the remote control of his Battle Robot through his card

deck, and Volcancer, who was hidden inside the Zodiac's hidden base, was activated. Through the

brainwave patterns of Sudo, Volcancer was given instructions by Cancer to find Hikari and kill her. Kaniza

then removed his card deck, and Kaniza's armor disappeared, becoming Sudo once again, and hid his card

deck, and left the restroom. He then headed to D.D.S.

Meanwhile, Takeru and Hikari stopped by at a local clinic, and had her nose injury treated. As soon as they

left, they saw Taichi and his parents, followed by Tailmon. Before the Kamiya family could be reunited,

Volcancer appeared out of nowhere, and stabbed Hikari at her stomach. The stab wound was too deep,

and she immediately lost consciousness due to blood loss. But before losing consciousness, Hikari

managed to mentally induce Tailmon to evolve, as well as Tailmon was angered at what she just saw.

---Start Digimon Evolve Sequence---

Tailmon changes…to Angewomon!

---End Digimon Evolve Sequence---

Angewomon urged the Kamiyas to get Hikari out of here while she holds the "monster" at bay. And the

Kamiyas did. Taichi phoned the other Chosens for help. He told his parents to go ahead while he stays and

find a way to help Angewomon.

Angewomon then charges toward Volcancer, but, since Volcancer and Angewomon are of the same height,

they were considerably equal in terms of strength, Volcancer dodged, and grabbed her ankle, and smashed

her against some nearby cars. Volcancer then lifted a gas truck and hit her. This caused an explosion and

ripped through several cars. And since there was a nearby gas station, the explosion reached there and an

additional explosion occurred, and the resulting explosion took about almost 100 lives. Taichi survives, but

was knocked unconscious due to the explosive impact. Angewomon survived as well, but the injury was

great, and she reverted back to Tailmon. She too was unconscious. Volcancer, on the other hand, was

seemingly unharmed, save for some few burnt metallic skins. Volcancer then proceeded to find Hikari.

At D. D. S., Daisuke led Dan and Sudo to where the murder took place. He then saw Ken and Wormon

standing beside where the pincers were found. Daisuke then showed Dan the cracked floor. Ken then told

Dan his theories that Hikari was indeed a "fall guy", telling him that when Hikari failed to notice the crack

on the floor, stepped on hit and tripped. To cushion her fall, she held her two hands in front of her and

landed on the floor with her hands touching them, but in the process she accidentally slipped her hands

inside the pincer-like gloves, so that her fingerprints will be embedded there, incriminating herself. Daisuke

then said that before the pincers were placed there, the pincers were used to kill the victims, then rubbed the

pincers on their bloodied bodies and then place them near the cracked floor. And since the color of the

pincers were the same as the color of the floor, their colors blended well, and thus, Hikari didn't notice the

pincers in front of her until she realized that after she tripped that she accidentally wore them. Sudo

mentally gritted his teeth. He didn't expected that two of the Chosen Children would figure out so fast. At

the Zodiac base, To-Rasu was listening to the conversation through the codec that Sudo was wearing. He too

was surprised that Daisuke and Ken managed to figure out Sudo's plan, but was relieved that they haven't

figure out who the real culprit is yet. At the same time, Sudo planted three bombs that he used the other

week, on three locations at the D. D. S. grounds.Dan reprimanded Sudo for his action and behavior, while

Sudo bowed and apologized to everyone. Then all of the sudden, Ken's cell phone rang. It was Kyuu.

"Ken! We need your help! A huge crab something is terrorizing the city! And believe it or not, it's after

Hikari and her parents! Hikari is bleeding, and Takeru's trying to hold it off! So many people are killed and

hurt!". Ken and the rest were surprised at what they just heard. Sudo stayed silent. Ken and Daisuke

immediately left the premises and head to where the trouble is.Kotaro Nanami then turned on the TV, and

saw the footage of Volcancer, plowing it'sway toward Hikari and her parents.

Meanwhile, an ambulance managed to get through the traffic and confusion. They then rushed Hikari to the

nearest hospital. Patamon found Takeru, who was using the fire extinguisher to confuse the mechanical

monster, and Takeru saw Patamon flying towards him. Takeru told Patamon to evolve, while Kyuu,

Megumi and Ryu stared in amazement at the size of Volcancer.

---Start Digimon Evolve Sequence---

Patamon changes…to Angemon!

---End Digimon Evolve Sequence---

Angemon wasted no time, and delivered the first blow. "Heaven's Knuckle!". Despite its metallic skin and

and huge size and strength, Volcancer staggered backwards. Angemon did the same move, and for the

first time, a dent was formed on Volcancer's chest. Seeing what was happening, Sudo secretly fiddled with

his card deck, and through his brainwave, he ordered Volcancer to make a retreat. Volcancer then crushed

the bottom portion of a street post. As the street post was ready to collapse, Angemon noticed that the wires

were ready to snap, and saw several people were in the way, and realized that, if it hits the ground, the high

tension wires will electrocute many people. Angemon then grabbed hold the post, enabling several

onlookers to run for safety. Angemon then gently dropped the post, and carefully placed the wires on a

vacant area. Turning around, Volcancer was gone. He then heard Takeru's voice. "Angemon! Over here!

We need help!". Takeru, Kyuu, Megumi, and Ryu were trying to lift a huge debris off Taichi. Angemon

then lifted the huge debris off of Taichi, who was unconscious. They then carried him to Angemon, who

brought him to a nearby hospital, where Hikari is currently given medical attention. Takeru then phoned

Daisuke and Ken, telling them where they are.

At the hospital, Class Q, A, and C, as well as the rest of the 1st batch Chosen Children (Yamato, Koshiro,

Jyou, Mimi, and Sora), and the Kamiya parents, were standing outside the operating room. They were

worried sick, and to everyone's surprise, it was the first time that one of the Chosen Children were

assaulted in injured at a hands of a non-Digimon. Daisuke clenched his fist and said, "I bet this has

something to with the bomb attempt at D. D. S.. And this is because they knew who the Chosen Children

were. Tailmon was the first to find the bomb. And It was Stingmon who got rid of it. Ken, it is likely that

you're the next target. We have to be careful.". Tailmon, who surprisingly recovered following the

explosion, came forward, and agreed with Daisuke. I believe that whoever did this to the 10 D. D. S.

students is also responsible for attacking Hikari. Daisuke and Ken were right. Hikari is a "fall guy", and yet

she ended up getting hurt.". Kyuu then stepped forward, with a worried look on his face. "It' more than just

that. I don't know who's responsible, but one thing's for sure. Someone, or some organization, wants you

Chosen Children away from D. D. S.. Remember, it was Tailmon's keen senses that detected the bomb, and

it was Stingmon who threw it away from D. D. S., and it is likely that the rest of you (indicating, Daisuke,

Ken, Takeru, Miyako and Iori) are possible targets too, since your Digimons have keen senses, and detect

any foreign objects.". Everyone seem to agree with Kyuu, Daisuke, and Tailmon. Then the surgeon came

out.

Everyone approached him, asking about Hikari's condition. The surgeon said, she's stable for now, but

she'll have to stay at the intensive care unit. Although relieved, they were saddened that Hikari had suffered

so much at the hands of a ruthless attacker. They vowed to exert all efforts to bring the attacker to justice,

and to unmask the one responsible for this incident.
