The beast came barreling at Bearmon. But he had an advantage. He knew what the whoosh behind him was. Bearmon jumped straight up as a silver car plowed through the fog slamming right into the nonmon, sending it flying back 10 feet, rolling and skidding about about 10 more.
Bearmon lands on the hood of the car. Turning to check on the driver. He waves, saying "Sorry" in a muffled voice, as if she could hear him through the windshield. She stared at him in shock, unmoving, mouth agape. Bearmon jumped off the hood of the car, to the ground. He slouched a little, realizing that the driver was the only human here. She wasn't who he was looking for.
"I'm not giving you time to get up." He says, stalking toward the downed nonmon. He starts to glow, building the energy for his attack. He lunges forward, attacking the downed enemy. "Beast attack!"
The nonmon is up in a flash. It headbuts, stopping the attack before it can grow. It whips its head up and blast Bearmon with fire, knocking him back. "Not...done...kill...you..." It growls. Everything happened so fast, Bearmon didn't even remember hitting the ground.
The data fog caused by the digital field seemed to be getting thicker. Bearmon was stunned, trying to get his wits about him again. He heard the car door open, then felt a hand on his chest. "Are you okay?" The woman asks, her voice fuzzy and distant. He looks up, her face blurry. There was something familiar about her voice. He couldn't place it.
"Oh...y-yeah. Part of the job I guess. But don't worry, I'm like the Duragizer chinchilla. I just keep charging and charging." He smiled at the same time as her before getting up. "You should take cover, I got this guy." He wipes his mouth with his forearm, trying to look cool. "Thanks for your help." He charges forward, before she can say another word, meeting the prismatic raptor in another grappling match. As they separate, the nonmon tries to blast him again. Bearmon is faster this time. The ground where he stood a moment ago a crater.
When Bearmon lands, he immediately rockets forward, putting his weight into another bear roll. He doesn't stop there, he follows it up with an upper cut, jumping into the air as he does. The nonmon's chin flies up from the impact and then snaps back down almost as fast. Bearmon hadn't landed, before he even had a foot on the ground, another blast that was even stronger.. He flew backwards, crashing through a window and rolling on a concrete floor. However, he didn't feel the impact with the window. Something had wrapped around him as he was knocked into the unfinished shop, softening the impact.
His grunt echoed through the incomplete building as he tried to get up. He fell down, losing his balance instantly. He looked back to see the woman from the car had saved him from directly crashing through the glass. She smiled as she opened her eyes groggily bragging "You're welcome." She slowly starts to lift herself up.
It took Bearmon by surprise. A complete stranger helping him. "You shouldn't have done that." He scolds, "I can handle this." She grins, arguing "Yeah, looked that way. You definitely need help." Her shoes scrape against the ground as she pulls herself up.
"I thought I would have it…" he sighs, "But I guess not." He starts for the entrance. Fog rolling in through the broken window, the noises of the chaos outside creeping in. "Please stay in here, I really don't want you getting hurt." He says, turning his head to the side while he's walking away.
Tears start welling in the woman's eyes.. She understood why he didn't recognize her. "Are you seriously going to just walk away from me you big dumb bear!?" She yells. The verbal attack stops him in his tracks, he's compelled to turn around. Her tone sounded so familiar.
"It's not safe for you." He answers.
The woman responds by lifting her arm, a blue and silver device in the palm of her hand. "Then I guess we'll just have to work together then….like old times."
Bearmon stood in shock. He knew that digivice. It was one he'd seen hundreds of times. It was his partner's digivice. "How did you…" he's stifled by the pure shock of what just happened. After a few heavy breaths, he finally asks, "Matt?"
The woman smiles at him. "It's Madi now."
