Chapter 5: Ladies and Gentlemen, Kizunamon

Hey everyone! It's me, sakuraphoenix, and I'm back with a new chapter! I know that it's been a while, but I've been busy. Anyhow, disclaimer time.

Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon or Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's

Enjoy!

We were walking along the tracks when a sudden wind blew, catching some of us off guard.

"Hey, cool! My ears are full of sand!" exclaimed Neemon

"Yes, and your head is full of rocks." Said Bokomon

"Wow, I haven't been in a wind this strong since, well, ever." Said Tommy

Takuya, Zoe, J.P., Matt, and I looked ahead, and ran out of the way of an incoming Trailmon!

"That was close." Said J.P.

"Why do things in the Digital World always come out of nowhere?" asked Takuya

"Let's see. Answer: It's the Digital World. Get used to it. That and, well Bokomon, care to state the obvious?" I asked

"Thank you Sakura. We're walking along train tracks." Said Bokomon

"So?" asked Takuya

"So where there are tracks, there's a train. It's kinda like the whole smoke fire thing." Said Bokomon

"Thank you for the lecture on the topic of 'What's obvious in the world' by Professor Bokomon." I said

"Was that a joke?" asked Bokomon

"I was being serious. Sorry if it sounded like I was insulting you." I said

"Apology accepted." Said Bokomon

"Wow, that is so cool!" exclaimed Leo

"Welcome to Wind Factory Incorporated." Said Bokomon

"Wind Factory Incorporated?" asked Zoe

"A division of Mother Nature Enterprises." Said Neemon

"You guys control weather patterns in the Digital World yourselves?" asked Akiza

We saw some Digimon inside the factory that looked like a cross between a Taser and a beetle.

"Hey, some Digimon." Said Takuya

"Kokuwamon. Machine Digimon. When they feel threatened, they let out a million volts of electrical charge. Their special attack is Power Surge." Said Bokomon

As he finished that, the Kokuwamon fell over and well, began charging up I suppose.

"Well, if there are that many Digimon around, then there must be some food around here somewhere." Said Bokomon

"Alright! Then let's have us a feast!" exclaimed Takuya

"But Takuya, hold on." Said J.P.

"Why? What's up?" asked Takuya

"Listen tacky, as long as you're out getting some food, would you mind bringing me an order to go with extra everything?" asked J.P.

"Listen J.P., Takuya's not the pizza guy." Said Matt

With that said and done, Takuya ran straight for the factory, but I noticed the alarms were going off. That's usually not good.

"Warning! Warning! Warning! A warning from Minomon!" exclaimed the weird Digimon

"Hello there." Said Neemon

"Are you not listening to me? I said warning, warning!" exclaimed Minomon

"They're larvae Digimon." Said Bokomon

"Warning, no trespassers allowed in the Wind Factory. No entry, leave now, go home, stop! If you don't obey our warning we will commence our fierce attack!" exclaimed Minomon

"You have now been warned! Stop! What we're trying to say is GET OUT!" exclaimed all three Minomon

"What are they going to do? Attack us with…" started Jack

"Shut up for once Jack. This is no time for one of your attitude problems." Crow said as he covered Jack's mouth with his hand

"Now would be a real good time for me." Said J.P.

"Uh-huh." Said Takuya

"Oh dear. Excuse me, but we're not trespassing. Right Zoe?" I asked

"That's right. We're just here for a tour of the factory." Said Zoe

The Minomon then began talking with each other. Looks like this is going to work.

"Let's make the first tour stop the exit door, okay?" asked J.P.

"Then come on down!" exclaimed the Minomon

Cue an anime fall for J.P., and that earned a couple of giggles from me and Zoe. We managed to get inside the building, and we saw the Kokuwamon working on something, but what? Then again, the green Digimon with the clubs didn't seem to help with this image.

"Those are Goblimon. This ogre Digimon loves being bad. His special attack is Goblin Strike." Said Bokomon

"Are you enjoying your tour?" asked Minomon

"Yeah." Said Zoe

"Do you have any questions?" asked Minomon

"Can we slide on this floor with our socks?" asked Neemon

"If you feel you must, go ahead." Said Minomon

J.P. then looked like he was about to dance or something.

"What's wrong?" asked Tommy

"I really need to find a bathroom, like right now!" exclaimed J.P.

"Hurry on back!" exclaimed Minomon

He sure was taking some time. The Minomon was also becoming impatient.

"Hey J.P.! Hurry up! You coming?" exclaimed Takuya

"I'm coming already!" exclaimed J.P.

He ran back to us, but I could tell that there was something on his mind, but what?

"This is the backbone of Wind Factory. It's where all the latest ultra-high tech super machines are made!" exclaimed Minomon

"So cool!" Leo and Tommy exclaimed in unison

"You call that an ultra-high tech super machine? Please." Said Bokomon

"A fan?" asked Luna

"And an ugly one at that, I mean, free is so out." Said Zoe

"What's so high-tech about a stupid fan?" asked J.P.

"Hey! It beats folding a piece of paper! Now, before we get you some lovely parting gifts are there any questions?" asked Minomon

"Yeah! Where is the cafeteria?" Everyone asked in unison

I bet most of us were wishing we kept our mouths shut, and by most, I mean all. All they served here were batteries.

"So, what exactly do you call this?" asked Akiza

"A nine-volt omelet?" asked Neemon

"Eat up everybody!" exclaimed Minomon

"They're really lovely batteries, but…" I started

"Oh, you'll love them! It's our chef's special! Just look at the Kokuwamon! They can't get enough! Be sure to save room for dessert. It's alkaline." Said Minomon

"We can't eat this stuff." J.P. and Takuya said in unison

"Say, don't you have any sugary treats lying around, you know, for special guests?" asked Tommy

"How about a double A pie?" asked Minomon

"No thanks!" we all exclaimed in unison

After the tour…

"I'm really worried we might have offended the Minomon." Said Akiza

"More than lunch offended us?" asked Jack

"For once I agree with you Jack." Said Crow

"Can we get back to worrying about my stomach?" asked J.P.

"Stupid batteries." Takuya said while kicking a battery

He managed to kick it to one of the tracks, and some Goblimon stared at us.

"Hey, what's that?" asked Luna

"Is a building with a fence around it too obvious an answer?" asked Bokomon

"Let's check it out." Said Takuya

We managed to sneak inside the area, and saw that the Kokuwamon lived here.

"So this…" started Takuya

"Is where the Kokuwamon live." Said Zoe

"At least they're out in the sunshine." Said Neemon

"But something's not right here." Said Yusei

"Yeah, something's very wrong. I can feel it." I said

Then, a bunch of children Kokuwamon appeared and surrounded Matt and J.P.

"You're kinda funny looking." Said one of the little Kokuwamon

Some of the Kokuwamon led us inside one of their homes and we met the Kokuwamon elder.

"Well once there was there. There is now here, which is neither here nor there." Said the Kokuwamon elder

"If I said that made any sense, I'd be lying." Said Zoe

"Yeah, I'm lost too." Said Tommy

"Me three." Said Yusei

"And if you're lost, that's a surprise." I said

"Sorry, the elder's charge is a little low these days. Perhaps our story will make more sense if we begin at the beginning. We Kokuwamon lived peacefully in the forest for generations. We played among the trees and had games of electric tag, until one day, without warning, the Goblimon attacked! The wind at the Wind Factory had gotten weaker and the energy for their generator had gotten low, so their leader has us rounded up. They took us all from our beautiful wooded home and put us to work in the factory." Said one of the Kokuwamon

"Here, not there." Said the Kokuwamon elder

"Man, that just blows." Said Leo

"Yeah, and everything seemed so normal when we toured the factory." Said Zoe

"I had a feeling something was wrong. My gut told me." Said J.P.

"Great, even your stomach's a know-it-all. So how come they needed your labor in such a modern factory?" asked Takuya

"Our labor is to make big motors for the Goblimon. It is not the main reason they keep us. You must understand, they would never let you outsiders see what goes on there. We Kokuwamon are a timid and cowardly breed by nature, but when we're frightened, we emit electrical currents up to a million volts, so they scare us constantly. Sometimes they even pour water on us to short us out, then they use the electricity we give up in the factory, or even worse, they threaten to hang us upside down so the charge rushes to our heads. And if all of that doesn't work, they show us pictures of people's feet. I've gotten so jumpy these days, I feel like there's a kangaroo in my pants." Said one of the Kokuwamon

"So that was the noise I heard when I came out of the bathroom." Said J.P.

"Scary." Said the Kokuwamon elder

"We're in the factory every day. This really isn't very much fun for us at all." Said one of the Kokuwamon

"It's low pay and hard work." Said another Kokuwamon

"And no vacation." Said a third Kokuwamon

"Can't go there." Said the Kokuwamon elder

"Well, why don't you leave?" asked Yusei

"Yeah, when the going gets too tough, the really smart ones take off." Said J.P.

"Are you out of your mind? If they take off, then the Goblimon will track them down and smash them all into little pieces!" exclaimed Takuya

"Let me guess Taki, you got some bright idea that they should band together and fight back." Said J.P.

"Actually J.P., that doesn't sound so bad of an idea." Said Matt

"We're not really fighters, and as for running away, we can't because the Goblimon security is just too tight." Said the first Kokuwamon

"Well, it seems like those are your only two options." Said Yusei

"I suppose if we had to choose, we would prefer the running option." Said the first Kokuwamon

"If you run now, you'll never stop running, but if you fight them, you could be free forever. You won't have to do it alone. We'll help ya beat them." Said Takuya

"Hey, who died and made you decision guy anyway? What if we don't want any part of this fight, huh?" asked J.P.

"I'm in." said Zoe

"Yeah, when do we start?" asked Tommy

"Excellent." Said Neemon

"Well, I don't speak for everyone in this room, but I'm for this plan. Anyone who agrees can feel free to stand. If you don't want to, that's okay too. We don't judge based on decisions we make." I said

All of the Kokuwamon began to stand up from the floor.

"Right, let's do it!" exclaimed the first Kokuwamon

"This could be the most important moment of our lives!" exclaimed the second Kokuwamon

"However short they may be!" exclaimed the third Kokuwamon

"Here, here." Said the Kokuwamon elder

"Something tells me that those Goblimon are gonna get the shock of their lives!" exclaimed Takuya

"Okay, is everyone ready?" asked Akiza

"Ready when you are." All of the Kokuwamon said in unison

Takuya was thinking up a plan while I was drawing a quick sketch of the Wind Factory. I have to say, it looks pretty good. Maybe if dueling doesn't work for me, I'll become an artist.

"Okay everyone, listen up. We're gonna do this tonight. Zoe, Leo, and Luna will cause a distraction right here. They're going to try and get as many Goblimon as possible over to the gate, that is, if you three think you can handle it." Said Takuya

"No sweat." Said Zoe

"What she said." Said Leo

"Leo." Said Luna

"What?" asked Leo

"Then the rest of us will move into the factory and wait for the right moment to attack, and when the signal comes, we all hit the same target, destroy the assembly line, and that's it. So, what do you say? Are you with me?" asked Takuya

"Affirmative!" exclaimed all of the Kokuwamon

"Great! This is teamwork guys and a great plan, just like the ones I used to draw for my army men, except this time it's for real! Pretty cool, huh?" asked Takuya

"Yeah, pretty cool for you Takuya." Said Zoe

"What's that mean?-!" exclaimed Takuya

"I get it. So if there's not enough place for them to work, I guess they'll just get to go home again." Said Tommy

"It's not quite that simple Tommy. We still have the Goblimon leader to get rid of." Said Yusei

"I'm not going." Said J.P.

"What?-!" Everyone, minus Matt and J.P.

"Why don't you guys take care of this one and just holler if you need me?" asked J.P.

"What are you saying J.P.?" asked Crow

"I'm saying that you guys are on your own. You don't need me, you probably don't even want me. I can't become a Digimon like you guys. I'm just tall, and sweet, and cuddly." Said J.P.

"Hey, I can't become a Digimon either, and do you see me in the dumps about it?" asked Matt

"Man, I will never understand what your problem is." Said Takuya

"My problem is you, trying to make me do what I don't want to!" exclaimed J.P.

"Oh yeah?-!" exclaimed Takuya

"You two loudmouths are gonna make the Kokuwamon cry." Said Bokomon

"We understand what J.P. is going through." Said the first Kokuwamon

"You see, before we met you, we never even dreamed of fighting back." Said the second Kokuwamon

"But you have given us hope, and that is something we haven't had in a long time, and you have seen how strong we can be if we just believe in ourselves." Said the third Kokuwamon

"We believe." Said the Kokuwamon elder

"You do?" asked Takuya

J.P. was muttering something to himself, and Matt went over to him to help him out. I'd talk to him, but Matt's our best bet right now. Soon, night fell, and it was time for plan A to begin.

"Alright, it's go time." Said Takuya

"Go." Said all of the Kokuwamon

"We're ready?" asked Takuya

"Ready!" we all exclaimed in unison

We went our separate ways, and activated our D-Tectors.

"Execute… Spirit Evolution!" Takuya, Jack, Tommy, Crow, Yusei, Akiza and I exclaimed in unison

"Agunimon!" exclaimed Takuya

"Rulermon!" exclaimed Jack

"Kumamon!" exclaimed Tommy

"Wingmon!" exclaimed Crow

"Starmon!" exclaimed Yusei

"Fleurmon!" exclaimed Akiza

"Lunamon!" I exclaimed

From our hiding spot, we noticed the Goblimon heading toward the place where Zoe, Leo, and Luna made their big entrance.

"Quickly now, follow me." Said Agunimon

When we entered inside the factory, the Kokuwamon helped us out in more ways than one, even Tommy made Popsicles out of the Goblimon! Why didn't I think of that?

"Alright, nice work Kumamon." Said Takuya

"He made Goblimon pops." Said Neemon

"Wait up!" exclaimed Tommy

We all ran to the control room, but a door blocked the way.

"This should get us past the lock." Said the first Kokuwamon

"Open sesame." Said Neemon

"Next stop the assembly line." Said Yusei

We entered inside, and well, let's just say we had a lot of Goblimon to handle.

"I don't like the looks of this." Said Bokomon

And some kind of giant praying mantis entered the building.

"Snimon. This praying mantis Digimon has blades for hands. His special attack is Twin Sickles." Said Bokomon

"Well, look what we have here. You destroyed part of my factory so I'll destroy you!" exclaimed Snimon

"Oh boy!" exclaimed Jack

"Hey, lights out buddy! Planetary Laser!" I exclaimed

He only used his claws as a shield. This sucks.

"There is no escape." Said Snimon

He managed to kick me across the room, and now I'm mad.

"What's your name? Or should I call you lunch meat?" asked Snimon

"None of your beeswax!" I exclaimed

"You dare to insult me?-!" exclaimed Snimon

Jack, Yusei, and Takuya managed to force him over me onto the assembly line.

"Twin Sickles!" exclaimed Snimon

And he knocked them back. We could really use some help right about now.

"Now I shall destroy all of your little friends one by one." Said Snimon

I noticed that J.P. and Matt used a crane to get Snimon into the wall. Well, too bad his claws got stuck. But the good news is, all the Goblimon ran.

"J.P.! Matt!" exclaimed Akiza

"Quick thinking guys!" exclaimed Takuya

Snimon used his attack on the crane, with Matt and J.P. still inside!

"J.P.! Matt!" I exclaimed

Thankfully, Matt and J.P. were okay, but did I just see two new spirits?-!

"Are those…" started Jack

"Spirits!" exclaimed Yusei

"Now where do you suppose they came from?" asked Neemon

"The metal surrounding them must've been too thick for the D-Tector to well, detect it." Said Bokomon

Matt jumped down with J.P. following suit. Looks like they get their spirits after all.

"Execute… Spirit Evolution!" J.P. and Matt exclaimed in unison

When they finished spirit evolving, J.P. looked like some kind of giant beetle while Matt looked like a tribal warrior with really long blond hair.

"Beetlemon!" exclaimed J.P.

"Kizunamon!" exclaimed Matt

"Look, J.P. and Matt Spirit Evolved." Said Takuya

"Yes, to Beetlemon and Kizunamon, the warriors of thunder and friendship." Said Bokomon

"I… I can't believe it. I'm Beetlemon! I did it! Let's get this party started!" J.P. exclaimed while performing some kind of dance

"Dance while you can monkey boy. Soon you two will taste the fury of Snimon!" exclaimed Snimon

"The only thing I wanna taste is a cheeseburger with a side of fries!" exclaimed J.P.

"And an order of bug-squashing to go!" exclaimed Matt

Snimon charged at Matt and J.P., but they got behind him, and kicked him aside. They gave him a couple of good knuckle sandwiches, and Snimon made the mistake of getting J.P. with his claws. J.P. and Matt then managed to knock him into the wall.

"Beetlemon and Kizunamon, 1." Said Matt

"And green guy, nothing." Said J.P.

Snimon charged, but Matt moved out of the way while J.P. flew.

"Missed me!" exclaimed J.P.

"Ultimate Twin Sickles!" exclaimed Snimon

Epic fail Snimon. Beetlemon's armor is too thick for you.

"Oh yeah? I call forth the power of Thunder Fist!" exclaimed J.P.

"And here's a little Assist!" exclaimed Matt

Matt jumped into the air and somehow copied J.P.'s Thunder Fist. Their attacks sent Snimon packing.

"Where once your power was used for evil, let it now be used for good! Fractal Code, Digitize!" exclaimed J.P.

He scanned Snimon's code, the Goblimon fled, and the building shook. Uh-oh, it's gonna blow.

"The factory's gonna blow. Everyone out!" exclaimed Takuya

We managed to get out in time, and the Kokuwamon were very happy.

"Our story has come full circle!" exclaimed the first Kokuwamon

"You can all go back to your real homes now." Said J.P.

"I was right to believe in you." Said a child Kokuwamon

A strong wind blew, and I could've sworn I saw some of the Minomon being carried away.

"Warning! Hey, warning! We're getting carried away now!" exclaimed Minomon

"Now can we find some food? Please? Guys?" asked J.P.

Done and done! Whew, this took me a while, but I'm finally done! Please review, and until next time, I'm sakuraphoenix, saying I heart you, signing off for now. Kan dao ni!
