Author's notes: After my account was deleted accidentally, I rewrote some parts of Dark Wing. There is another version, Dark Wing Type 2, that I'm writing that follows the anime more accurately. But for now, I'll focus on finishing the original Dark Wing since I want to wait and see what happens in the Japanese Tamer series. I'll upload the other chapters once I've finished double-checking them. Thanks for your patience.
Author's notes: After some consideration, I've decided to use the Japanese levels, since I'm already using the Japanese names, cards and attacks anyway. Therefore:
Digimon Levels:
Child : Rookie
Adult : Champion
Perfect : Ultimate
Ultimate: Mega
Author's 'the Devil made me do it' notes: I'm aware that some people who reviewed the original Dark Wing feel there wouldn't be any point in re-reviewing old chapters. So, I've come up with an idea so devilish, Devimon would be proud. Some chapters will have major differences. Which ones? You'll have to read them all to find out! *cue evil laughter*
Digimon Tamers: Dark Wing
TERROR OF THE WHITE SHADOW! ICE DEVIMON'S REVENGE!

"D-Devimon?!" Juri gasped in shock. "How...?" Devimon smirked and flipped a card at her. Juri picked it up and read it out loud. "'Revived from the Darkness'?" She looked up at Devimon. "You used a card?!"
"Exactly," The fallen angel Digimon chuckled.
"B-but...how?"
Devimon smirked. "I actually have you to thank."
"Me?"
"Specifically, all of you Chosen." Devimon waved his hand and a large Black Gear materialised. As Juri watched, a picture appeared inside. It showed Leomon and the others battling Renamon. "I was watching when you freed Renamon from my Black Gear." The Gear showed Takato slide a card through his D-Arc and wings appearing on Guilmon's back. "I realised the potential there was in using these cards as weapons." Devimon smiled at the shocked girl. "I also realised there was a good chance you would defeat me, so I took adequate precautions..."
"So when we defeated you..."
"This card I had specially prepared for the occasion allowed me to return." Devimon waved his hand again and the Gear vanished. "Now, I have one more thing to do..." He slowly reached for the cage and Juri, who scrambled as far back as she could and shut her eyes tightly. She heard Devimon open the door then, to her surprise, shut it again. "Enjoy your meal." When Juri opened her eyes, she was surprised to see a plate on the floor with a plain loaf of bread on it. Devimon looked over his shoulder as he left the room. "I find that hostages are infinitely more valuable when kept well-fed and safe," he explained. "Besides, you are far more useful to me alive. For now..."
After shutting the door, Devimon walked down the hallway of the abandoned building. "Now then..." He entered the hall where he had risen after his defeat. In the center of the room was a gigantic Black Gear, looking like a corrupted version of Holy Angemon's Heaven Gate. With a wave of his hand, the Black Gate's doors creaked open, revealing a gateway to what looked like eternal darkness. "It is time to begin my grand plan..." he laughed as he walked towards the gate. He held up the card he had thrown at Guilmon earlier. The card had a picture of three diskettes on a black background. "Powers of Darkness...hear my summons!" He threw the card inside the gate, where it dissolved in a flash of purple light. Raising his hand, the Dark Messenger's hand began glowing as he drew an arcane symbol in the air. "Accept my humble offering..." From the ground rose a flight of Black Gears, which began circling Devimon as he continued chanting. "Bring forth the vengeful spirit encased within the data! Data Copy! Accept my Black Gears!"
The Data Copy card reformed, glowing once more with a pale light as the Black Gears flew into the Gate and began swirling around it. As Devimon began laughing, the Black Gears exploded in a shower of black data which was absorbed into the card. The card floated out of the Gate, which closed behind it. "Arise..." Devimon commanded, as a pillar of pure darkness shot out of the card. "Come forth, and take your place at my side!" The pillar began receding as the card stopped glowing. Kneeling on the ground before Devimon was a shadowy figure, who slowly opened its eyes and looked up at him. "Excellent," Devimon laughed. "We have much to do, you and I..."
"Let's see..." Lee said, leading the other Tamers and the Digimon down the alleyways. He held up his D-Arc, comparing it to the map of the area he had printed from Yamaki's disk. "According to the information, Devimon appeared somewhere around..." He looked up at a dilapidated building that looked like it had been abandonded for years. "Here."
"Takato, I don't like the look of this place..." Guilmon told the brown-haired boy.
"Me neither, Guilmon," Takato replied. "But maybe we can find out where Katou-san is if we look around here!"
"Then let's go in!" Ruki said, walking through the door with Renamon close behind.
"Yeah!" Takato agreed, raising his fist. "Let's go!"
Lee nodded. "Be careful, everyone." The others followed Ruki inside. Unknown to them, as soon as Ruki crossed the thereshold, a silent alarm was activated.
The main hall...
"Hmmm?" A Black Gear flew up to Devimon, who was glanced at it. "The Children!" The Gear showed the Tamers creeping into the building. "I don't have time to deal with them now!" He turned to the shadows, where the shadowy figure stood. "Go, and hold them off while I complete the next phase!" The figure nodded then seemed to sink into the wall behind it, headed on an intercept course. Devimon turned, smiling evilly. "Meanwhile, I'd best see how my...guest is doing."
Moments later, in the room Juri was being held...
"Your friends are here." Juri looked up to see a Black Gear hovering outside the cage, displaying Devimon's smirking face. "I'll allow you to watch as they die." His face faded, and was replaced by the Tamers inside the entrance hall of the building.
"Takato-kun..." Juri whispered.
"Now," Devimon smiled. "I must hurry." He stood before the Black Gate. "There can be no room for error." Raising his hands, he blasted the Gate with a wave of Dark Energy. "As long as I can capture and enslave them...there will be nothing to stand in my way..." The Gate slowly opened, revealing what appeared to be a peaceful park in a city. Devimon's face twisted into a sinister smile. "And now," the Dark Messenger said to himself. "to meet with some old friends..." Evil laughter echoed through the building as he stepped through the Gate.
Meanwhile, in the Digital World, the Holy Beasts had assembled once more. "We underestimated him..." rumbled Xuanwumon.
"He has opened a gate to another part of the Real World!" growled Baihumon, shaking his massive head.
Qinglongmon bared his teeth. "Not just any Real World! That is the Real World linked to my domain!"
"The homeworld of the Chosen?" Xuanwumon asked.
The long blue-and-silver dragon nodded. "Yes," he replied. "I sensed a sudden burst of Dark energy pass through!"
"Let us crush him ourselves!" Baihumon roared.
Qinglongmon nodded. "Or at least, let us send agents to remove him."
"It is Zhuqiaomon's desicion," interjected Xuanwumon. "What would you have us do," the ancient Mega asked. "Intefere, or leave it to the humans?"
Zhuqiaomon had remained uncharacteristically quiet throughtout the exchange, but now spoke. "Let the humans try."
"Are you certain?" Xuanwumon asked.
Zhuqiaomon nodded. "Let them try, at least. If they fail, then we will act. If they succeed, then we will not have to expend our energies unnecessarily."
"So be it." Xuanwumon looked at each of the other Holy Beasts. "Are there any objections?"
"It is Zhuqiaomon's choice," Qinglongmon agreed.
"But our offer of aid is still valid," added Baihumon.
Zhuqiaomon folded his wings. "Thank you, Brothers."
"Now," Xuanwumon said, his Digi-cores glowing. "We must seal the Gate, lest the Dark Messenger evades our senses again!"
"You sure this is the right place, Jen?" Ruki asked, peeling a cobweb out of her hair.
"That's what the tracker says." Lee looked around. "Doesn't look like much of a hideout does it?"
Leomon growled. "I smell Juri."
Takato looked at him. "Are you sure?" Leomon nodded. "Lead the way!"
The Tamers followed Leomon up a flight of stairs. Soon, they arrived at a huge lobby. "Which way?" Takato asked.
Leomon sniffed at the air. "Close by..." he said, before pointing to the stairs that led to the second floor. "Up those stairs!" The scarred and muscular Beast Man Digimon took a step toward the staircase.
"Wait!" Lee ordered.
"What is it?" Terriermon asked.
"Is it just me," the olive-skinned boy wondered. "Or did it suddenly get colder?"
"It's probably the air-conditioning," Terriermon told him.
Ruki looked puzzled. "This is an abandoned building! There isn't any air-conditioning!"
Renamon looked around. "Something strange is going on. Ruki," she said, turning to her partner. Her eyes widened in shock. "WATCH OUT!"
Ruki immediately dived forward, trusting enough in Renamon to listen to the warning without question. Her faith in her partner was rewarded when something grabbed at the air where she had been standing a split-second ago.
"Who?!" Ruki demanded as she stood, Renamon landing protectively before her.
"Your link to Renamon has improved..." said a confident voice as a figure emerged from the wall. "However, I said you would be MY Tamer, Makino Ruki...and I intend to prove that by slaying Renamon here and now!" As he finished speaking, the figure stood before the Tamers, letting them see him for the first time. Tall and lean, he was dressed in white, his face hidden behind a horned cowl. Powerful, abnormally elongated arms flexed hands which ended in cruel-looking claws. A red bat-symbol was splashed on his muscular chest, while the numerous black belts and leather straps he wore all over his body contrasted with his otherwise pure white colour scheme.
Ruki's eyes widened and she stepped back, gasping as she recognised the figure. "Ice Devimon?!"
The white Fallen Angel Digimon smiled, displaying his impressive set of fangs. "It has been a long time, Tamers." His eyes narowed as his gaze fell on Guilmon. "I've been waiting to see you again, little one." Twin beams of freezing light shot out of his eyes, freezing the ground as Guilmon and the others scattered, just barely avoiding being frozen. "You will be mine," Ice Devimon roared as he charged forward. "Makino Ruki!"
