"You are my long lost son." Lineer revealed to Davis. As this nightmare began, more and more surprises kept coming. This had to be the biggest one of them all.

"Davis is Lineer's son?!" Serene said.

"That can't be!" Sierra said. Davis didn't believe it himself and he refuses to.

"No!" Davis shouted as he swung his sword at her, but Lineer backed away from him. "Don't screw with me about something like that. I recently found out my parents aren't my real parents, but there's no way you can be my real mother."

"But I am. A mother never forgets her child's face." Lineer said. "You want to know something else? You and Marinda are actually twin brother and sister."

"What?! They're twins?!" Ichika said as he looked back and forth between the two of them. None of them could believe any of this. Davis was taking it the worst.

"Shut up!" Davis shouted as he kept trying to attack her, but Lineer was too fast for him. "Lies! You have to be lying!"

"I promise you that I'm not." Lineer said. The ring on her back powered up and fired lasers at point-blank range and blasted Davis down. It caused a bright flash of light and an explosion Davis blew out of. Dragonic Heaven ran out of power from such a powerful attack and Davis was knocked out. "Taking care of two teenagers is such a challenge."

"Get away from him!" Lita unleashed Red Wyvern. She tried to slice Lineer, but Lineer moved away from Davis as the five girls gathered around Davis to protect him.

"How touching, but I'm afraid you have other worries." Lineer said as she pointed to the Sensationals. All of them were close to the arena. The ribcages opened up and wires came out as they grabbed a hold of some of the I.S. students. As one was pulled inside, the cage closed around her and more power was being added to the robot and it instantly grew like it became buffer. "My Sensationals are retrieving their power source and obtaining their true power."

"She's sacrificing everyone!" Rin shouted.

"No!" Ichika shouted as he tried to fight them off, but those who already grabbed someone was a whole lot stronger.

"You can fight all you like, but I'm afraid that once they grab a human, there is no chance of them being stopped." Lineer said. There was too many enemies around and they're all being slowly overwhelmed.

"We have no choice. Sarashiki, now!" Chifuyu called out.

"Yes, ma'am. Time we take our leave." Tatenashi said as she snapped her fingers and a series of explosions was going off around the place.

"Everyone, we have to fall back for now! We'll retreat and fight another day!" Chifuyu said.

"We can't!" Ichika said.

"We have no choice. If we stay, we'll end up being captured ourselves. Orimura, grab her." Chifuyu said as she pointed to Marinda. "She might be an asset to us." Not one to argue with his sister in a critical situation, he did what she told. Ichika went over to Marinda and took her out of the wall. Lita grabbed a hold of Davis and everyone made a run for it as the explosions provided some cover.

"They're leaving. Aren't we going to stop them?" Harina asked.

"No. Let them run. They'll be nowhere for them to run or hide." Lineer said as her forces took over I.S. Academy and what might have been the only place that could have stopped her.

…

One Month Later

One month has passed since the failed attempt to bring down Lineer by Davis and Marinda. During that month, Lineer has spread her power through all of Japan. It almost feels like it could be the end of the world. Out in Odaiba, Ken was with Wormmon and was running their lives.

"Ken, over here." Wormmon said as they found a food stand.

"Hurry, Wormmon." Ken said as he placed a couple bags down. "We need to grab as much as we can."

"I can't believe we're stealing." Wormmon said as they were loading as much as they could.

"It will be fine. We need these supplies." Ken said. "That should be enough. Let's get going before those things show up."

"Too late." Wormmon said. Some of the Sensationals showed up and were ready to capture Ken. Wormmon stood in between them to try and protect Ken, but they were surrounded. Ken and Wormmon thought they would have to force their way through, but they were saved when Kimi and Rin showed up and defeated all the Sensationals very easily.

"The ones that don't have captured humans are easier to handle." Rin said.

"You can say that again." Kimi said.

"Rin! Kimi!" Ken said and got their attention.

"You're one of Davis' friends, right?" Rin asked.

"I am." Ken said.

"Thank you for saving us." Wormmon said.

"We're not out of the woods yet." Kimi said as they saw more of them were showing up. "Whenever we take one down, more of them show up. They're like roaches."

"Let's get out of here." Rin said as she grabbed a hold of Ken and Wormmon and they flew off somewhere that was safe.

…

Underground

Ever since the nightmare began, people have been constantly running for their lives. Most of the population of the country has been captured, but those who survived the incident on I.S. Academy have been doing their best to help as many people as they can with underground bases. Kimi and Rin brought Ken there and he met up with the rest of his friends.

"Ken! Wormmon!" T.K. called out and they all went over to them.

"You made it!" Yolei said.

"Yeah. I'm glad to see you're all safe as well." Ken said. "Where are Tai and the others?" When he asked, they all seemed to have gotten upset.

"We haven't seen them." Cody said.

"There's a chance they all got captured." T.K. said.

"We're sorry." Kimi said.

"We try to save as many people as we can, but these things just keep coming no matter how many we knock down." Rin said.

"We'll be fine." All of them looked and saw Ichika with his classmates. "We're doing our best to protect everyone. We just need to keep our hopes high." Ichika said.

"It has been confirmed that all the humans captured are still alive. We just need to free them all." Cecilia said.

"Just leave it all to us." Cecilia said. "We'll find some way to end this nightmare and save everyone that's been captured. Including all your friends and your family." That was happy to hear, but they did feel useless.

"How's Davis doing by the way?" T.K. asked, but that made them all go silent.

"No change." Houki said.

"He's been unconscious for a month and no one knows what to do to awaken him." Laura said.

…

Davis

Davis was in a medical room. Kari was in there with Veemon and Davis' adoptive parents. All of them were really worried about him, but none of them knew what to do to help him.

"Davis, please wake up." Veemon said.

"Just be patient, Veemon." Gatomon said.

"We're all worried about him, but all we can do is wait." Kari said. Veemon looked over to Dragonic Heaven as it rested on a desk next to the bed. He knew Davis was needed out there and Dragonic Heaven's power is useful, but it won't seem to work.

"I had a feeling it was bad idea to send him to that school. Look at what has happened to him because of it." Gina said.

"No. Davis needed to learn the truth and we had no idea something like this would happen." Jack said. They heard the door open and saw Fria, Serene, Sierra, and Kimi entered.

"How's he doing?" Serene asked.

"No change." Kari said.

"He got hit pretty hard by that last attack, but to think it's taking a month to recover." Fria said.

"I think it might be a more psychological reason as to why Davis hasn't awaken." Sierra said.

"That's understandable." Kimi said. "I still can't believe that witch, Lineer, is Davis' actual mother. He must have also realized his real father is dead. Hearing that he and Marinda are really twins must be a shock as well. They seem so different."

"Poor, Davis." Kari said as she never knew anyone who got messed up like this. She reached for his hand and held it with the other girls getting jealous, but now was not the time to act on it.

"Kari, you've been watching over Davis for days. Maybe you should go get some rest." Gatomon said, but Kari refused.

"I'll rest when I know he'll be okay." Kari said.

"Where is Marinda anyway?" Kimi asked.

"She's our prisoner until she decides to work with us." Serene said. "Miss Orimura is holding her I.S. so she doesn't try anything."

"Isn't there suppose to be five of you?" Jack asked. "Where's that other girl? Lita, I think her name is."

"Well….her brother recently arrived, but she has her own problems with him that she wants to work out." Sierra said.

….

Lita

Wade was slammed against the wall by Lita and she wasn't letting him go. Chifufyu, Tatenashi, Kanzashi, and Maya were all close, but they didn't do anything to stop her. They knew it would be pointless.

"Lita, that isn't how you say hello." Wade said.

"No more games, Wade!" Lita said with a lot of fury in her eyes. "I want the truth. Did you know all along that Lineer was Davis' actual mother?" Wade got serious as he saw she was hurting as well.

"No. Not at first. Not until I saw him with Dragonic Heaven." Wade said.

"What does him having Dragonic Heaven have to do with it?" Chifuyu said.

"It's simple. I was the one who developed that I.S." Wade said and that was a bit of a shocker to them. "I was afraid a day like this would come."

"No more holding out on us Wade, damn it." Lita said. "This time you tell us everything and don't leave a single thing out."

"Okay. Okay. Just try and calm down." Wade said. "It all started like sixteen years ago." He said as he remembered some of the terrible events such as two young babies being hooked up to some machines. "I believe the only reason Lineer married Dr. Kioya was for his research. All for her own purposes such as what she did to her children. She experimented on her own infant children." The two children were crying, but one flat lining. "One survived her experiments, but the other didn't and she just disposed of it. That's what it seemed."

"I take it that Marinda was the one who survived and Davis was the one she thought she lost." Chifuyu said.

"Correct, but the truth was that Dr. Kioya tricked her to take his son out of there." Wade said. "That was the day he decided to turn against her. He wanted to take both, but he knew he couldn't get Marinda out of there. I suppose exposure to her experiments had a lasting effect on Davis and that might be why he can operate I.S. units since her research is based upon each other."

"So what happened?" Lita asked.

"I was with Dr. Kioya that raining night. He was taking his son out of there." Wade said as he remembered that raining night with Inzuma driving through it with Wade and Davis there as well. However, it went out of control. "What we didn't know was that Lineer found out about us. She sabotaged his car and caused him to crash. Davis and I survived, but he didn't."

"The car crash Mr. and Mrs. Motomiya told Davis about! You were there?" Lita said.

"Yeah." Wade said. He remembered the doctor handed him a drive before he left this world. "Just before he passed away, he gave me the last of his research to develop a weapon that could stop him. As for Davis, I knew I would be risking a lot taking him with me. Luckily, another car was coming by." Wade saw lights of another car coming and he left Davis after he made sure he was safe. "I had a feeling the time would come where I would need to find his son. So I took a sample of his DNA." Just before he left, Wade took a single piece of Davis' hair and placed it in a test tube with him leaving.

"So that's when the Motomiyas showed up and took Davis as their own." Lita said.

"How did this lead to you developing Dragonic Heaven?" Tatenashi asked.

"I knew this day would come. I spent years in my research working with all the data my teacher gave me." Wade said as he remembered all the work he did. "When Tabune developed the I.S., I knew that would be useful and I created Dragonic Heaven with it. I was even able to develop it's own core."

"That still doesn't explain how Davis got it." Chifuyu said.

"I needed to make sure it wouldn't fall into the wrong hands." Wade said. He remembered placing a core in a machine and it began to dissolve. "I broke it all down to microscopic levels and spread it into the atmosphere. It only would be released when an I.S. recognizes the DNA of its true owner and any I.S. would be transformed into Dragonic Heaven. In order to ensure the right person would be able to use it, I used the DNA of Dr. Kioya's son and his alone. That's why it never awoke with Lineer's or Marinda's. In other words, only Davis is able to use Dragonic Heaven."

"I guess that would explain that strange light from when Davis first got it." Kanzashi said.

"But I.S. units are suppose to work for females only. How could you have possibly know it would even work?" Lita said.

"I didn't. I had a few contingency plans in place." Wade said. "If I had realized Davis was his son, I would have acted sooner and maybe we wouldn't be in this mess."

"Yeah. You should have. Then, maybe Davis would be like this." Lita said. Wade looked at his sister and could see she was hurting and he never wanted to see that in her.

"Lita, I'm sorry. I can tell you care so much about him." Wade said. Lita wasn't comfortable say this, but she felt she had to.

"Yeah. I actually fell for his charms." Lita said. "Then, after I spent some time with him and got to know him, my feelings for him actually got deeper. Sounds stupid."

"Not at all. It happens." Wade said. "Right now, we need to stay focus. We've got one hell of a mess to clean up."

"Just like Marinda said, what's done is done." Chifuyu said. "We can't change the past, but we can save the future. Give me a status report."

"I'm afraid it's not good." Kanzashi said as she brought a map of Japan. "About ninety-three percent of the country has been taken over."

"All of Japan will be taken over within a week. Then, the rest of the world will be next." Maya said.

"We need Davis. We need Dragonic Heaven to help us out." Wade said. "Then again, there's still our little prisoner I heard about."

…

Lineer

"Beautiful, isn't it?" Lineer said as she watched the country being taken over by her machines as more of them continued to be made.

"It is. Those dopes can fight and destroy Sensationals all they want, but we keep just making more." Harina said.

"Yes, Harina. All they're doing is prolonging what's happening." Lineer said. "All I'm doing is bringing the world in complete bliss. How is that so wrong? Then again, those children of mine are causing problems. Raising two teenagers is such a challenge. Especially when they're twins and seem very different."

"What are you going to do about them?" Harina asked.

"Things are already in motion." Lineer said.

…

Marinda

When Marinda was taken with Ichika and the others, she was held as their prisoner and she's been refusing to work with them. She just sat in a cage and hardly did anything with her holding her knees.

"Comfortable?" Marinda looked up and saw Chifuyu. "Your own personal unit is impressive as well as your skills as a pilot. So what do you think of your accommodations?"

"This is the lowest point in my life. Your taunts aren't really helping." Marinda said.

"Marinda, you know this enemy better than anyone. You know personally what we're up against." Chifuyu said. "Don't you want to help your own recently discovered twin brother?" Marinda was finding it all hard to believe herself.

"Motomiya and I….are twins." Marinda said. Chifuyu knows that having Marinda on their side will give them an edge. Before she could do anymore, the whole place began to shake.

"Sounds like they're here." Chifuyu said. Sensationals that were powered-up was able to track the hideout down and was attacking it. Ichika and the girls all ran out and saw there was a whole army of them.

"Damn these things." Laura said.

"Just how many does Lineer have?" Fria said.

"Probably about as many as there are people in the world." Houki said.

"It doesn't matter how many of them there are." Lita said.

"Lita's right. We've got to fight. Let's go!" Ichika said and they all released their units and went on the attack.

"Let's go, Sierra!" Charlotte said.

"Si!" Sierra said as they both opened fired from the ground and shot at each one of them. Cecilia and Serene flew from the air and used their weapons to attack them from there. Laura used the power of the A.I.C. to help her contain them.

"Fria!" Laura shouted. Fria flew over her and powered her cannon and blasted some of them. Rin and Kimi used their cannons together and blasted them together.

"Kanzashi, are you ready?" Tatenashi asked.

"I am!" Kanzashi said. Kanzashi's I.S. opened up and fired multiple missiles and shot around the Sensationals. Tatenashi maneuvered around them and used water to strike them down.

"Houki, cover me!" Lita said.

"I got your back." Houki said as she took the lead and held off some of the robots. Lita flew through and sliced right through one and it was able to cut through and free the human.

"My sword?! It actually cut through this thing!" Lita said.

"That's right." Wade said through the communication link. "I told you I had some contingency plans."

"I never thought I be happy to have you as a brother." Lita said and got to work.

…

Davis

The vibrations of the battle traveled through the ground and was felt through some areas. Kari and the rest of them looked to the roof and started to get anxious.

"What's going on out there?" Jack asked.

"Don't worry. We have some training units. They're not much, but they help us gie a fighting chance." Veemon said. "It will give Ichika and the girls a better chance…..hopefully."

"Hopefully?" Gatomon said. As the battle was going on, Davis could feel it and he was acting as if he was having a nightmare. He couldn't take it anymore and when he opened his eyes, a sudden power was released.

…..

Outside

An explosion went off from the base and it caused all the fighting to stop. All of them turned to where the explosion came from and saw someone standing there as he found a discarded katana and lifted it up.

"You guys are making too much damn noise."

"It's Davis!" Ichika said. Davis walked forward, but no one really saw in his eyes. Davis slash through the air and they all ripped apart and the humans inside were free. None of them could believe it.

"He cut through all of them….?!" Cecilia said.

"…..With a simple katana….?!" Lita said.

"….Freed the humans….?!" Houki said.

"….All in a single strike?!" Rin said.

"Davis!" Veemon called out as he dug through the rubble and had Dragonic Heaven. He was happy that Davis was awaken and so were the girls.

"We're all glad you're awake!" Sierra said.

"Get away from me!" Davis said and that caused them to all stop in their tracks. When they could finally see into his eyes, they were the same inside. Those were the eyes you would see in a rage-filled beast.

….

Davis: I can't believe this. Lineer's my real mother and my real father is gone. None of it can be true. It just can't be. These dumb I.S. units are to blame for all of this. None of this would be happening if it weren't for them. I've never so much rage and anger in my whole life and I know just where to go and who to take all of it out on.

Next time: A Pilot No More

This time, I'm the one who doesn't care who gets in my way.
