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 notes: ********* means a scene change.
Digimon Tamers: Dark Wing
The unbelievable power of Darkness!

"NIGHT RAID!" Vamdemon yelled, unleashing a horde of bats from under his cape.
"Everyone!" Leomon ordered. "Attack! Fist of the Beast King!"
"Demon Fireball!"
"Fireball!"
"Gattling Arm!"
"Destruction Grenade!"
As the attacks met, there was a huge explosion, resulting in a massive cloud of dust. "Impressive, Tamers!" Vamdemon called out as the smoke cleared. His face twisted into a cruel smile. "Unfortunately, you'll have to do better than that!" He raised his arms towards the Tamers, "Time to die!"
"No one's going die today, Vamdemon!" Lee told the vampire.
"Well, at least not quickly," Vamdemon replied, baring his fangs. "I must say, your female friends look quite...satisfying." Juri's hand went up to her neck as she gulped, while Ruki narrowed her eyes, fixing Vamdemon with a death glare. "Bloody Stream!" Bolts of red energy bursts launched out of his outstretched arms at the Tamers.
"Scatter!" Leomon ordered, picking up Juri and dodging the blasts. Taking a cue, the others did the same.
Vamdemon laughed. "I don't see why Devimon cautioned me about you! You are nothing, NOTHING compared to me!"
"Why are these powerful villians always loudmouths?" Lee muttered as he rolled to dodge an energy bolt.
Leomon leapt into the way. "Fist of the Beast King!" His attack knocked the bats off course, and they disappeared into the night.
"Leomon!" Juri warned. "Be careful!" Leomon nodded, then leapt towards Vamdemon.
"Fist of the Beast King!"
"Urgh!" Vamdemon staggered, more surprised than hurt. "You little... Dead Scream!" A piercing scream tore through the air, bringing everyone who heard it to their knees. "Night Raid!" The swarm of bats engulfed Leomon, causing Juri to scream.
"Leomon!!!"
"Hiyah!" Lee attacked from behind, sweeping Vamdemon's legs from under him. "Quick, Galgomon,Guardromon!"
"Dum Dum Upper!" His hand glowing with energy, the humanoid dog-like Digimon delivered a powerful uppercut that staggered the vampiric Perfect.
The robotic Digimon leapt into the air, his jets flaring as he flew forwards, following up Galgomon's Dum Dum Upper with a kick that knocked Vamdemon to the ground. As he flew overhead, twin missiles rose out of his forearms. "Destruction Grenade!"
"Vermin!" Vamdemon swore, swatting the the missiles away. While he was distracted, Kyuubimon dived at him from above, kicking him in the head. He fell, but quickly recovered. The Perfect froze for a moment, then spat. One of his fangs landed on the ground. Raising a hand, he felt his jaw. "My teeth..." His face twisted into a mask of hatred. "You wench!" Moving unbelievably fast, his hand reached out and wrapped around Kyuubuimon's neck. "You die first!" His hand began constricting, trying to snap her neck.
"Kyuubimon!" Ruki cried. Thinking quickly as befitting the Digimon Queen, she reached into her card holder, pulling out one of her cards. "Card Slash! Power Charger!"
"Fox Flame Dragon!" Kyuubimon's tails flared as she suddenly burst into flame, leaping into the air as Vamdemon released her with a cry of surprise.
**************
"Shouldn't we be helping him?" Fladramon asked as Kyuubimon slammed into Vamdemon, leaving him open while Galgomon charged forward, Guardromon and Impmon right behind him.
"Gattling Arm!" Extending both his arms, the bandolier-wearing Adult fired with both barrels as he ran.
"Warning Laser!" As Guardromon flew after Galgomon, his eyes fired twin beams of light which streaked through the air in Vamdemon's direction.
A small ball of flame appeared in each of Impmon's hands as he ran towards Vamdemon. "Night of Fire!"
"Urgh!" Vamdemon grunted as he deflected the attacks with his hands.
"No." Ice Devimon rose to his feet, feeling his neck. "If he's so powerful, let him handle them." The Adult smiled to himself. "It will do him good to have some sense knocked into him."
**************
"..." Devimon opened his eyes, his fangs gleaming white in a cruel smile. "Hahahahaha..." he chuckled. "As I suspected! There is tremendous Dark energy in this world..." Bringing up a leather-wrapped hand, the Dark Digimon stroked his chin thoughtfully. "...How convinient." Waving his hand, he summoned a Black Gear. "Ice Devimon! Withdraw!"
**************
Ice Devimon looked into the Black Gear as Vamdemon was struck by Leomon, who had finally freed himself of Vamdemon's bats. "What, now? Just when things are becoming interesting?"
"Vamdemon is more than capable of handling a handful of Adults," Devimon told his fellow Fallen Angel. "Return! We have more important things to do!"
Ice Devimon nodded. "You heard him," he said to Fladramon and the others. "Let's go!" Spreading his wings, the frozen demon took to the air, followed by the three armoured Digimon, Digmon and Musyamon riding Holsmon's back.
**************
"It looks like your friends are abandoning you, Vamdemon," Leomon taunted as he delivered a powerful punch followed with a roundhouse kick.
"Pah," Vamdemon snorted. "I need no 'friends', Leomon!" He somersaulted, landing nimbly on his feet some distance away. "Who needs friends if you have power?" The vampire crossed his arms before him, yelling out as he thrust his hands at the Tamers. "BLOODY STREAM!" Bolts on crimson energy shot out of his outstretched arms, lighting up the now deserted streets, ripping up the ground and sending wrecked cars into the air while the Tamers scattered. Vamdemon smirked as the Digimon tried to regroup. "And now...DEAD SCREAM!"
"Ahhk!" Lee gasped as he was knocked off his feet by a shockwave. He tried to rise, but found that he couldn't move. "Wha..."
Ruki struggled to get to her feet, but her limbs refused to obey her. "Ghhh..." she hissed. "...can't move..." Turning her head, she saw Hirokazu, Kenta and Juri pinned to the ground as well.
"Ru...ki..." Kyuubimon groaned. Using all her strength, Ruki pulled herself to a sitting position and saw the Digimon in the same condition, paralyzed and helpless.
"You see?" Vamdemon laughed, stalking past the frozen Digimon towards the Tamers. "Power is everything! Friendship is fleeting!"
Ruki rose to her feet through sheer force of will. "What...good is power...if you have no one to use it for?" she demanded, glaring at Vamdemon defiantly as he towered above her.
"Ah, the usual defiant speech in the face of defeat." Vamdemon smiled evilly, displaying his wicked-looking fangs. He cocked an eyebrow as he taunted the redhead. "And I suppose this is where someone heroically charges to the rescue?"
"Card Slash!" someone yelled.
"Whaaat?" Vamdemon whirled around to see who had spoken. His gaze fell on a boy with light-brown hair, wearing a pair of round yellow goggles and dressed in a blue shirt with grey shorts. He held a small gold and red machine in one hand as he slid a card through it with the other.
"Super Evolution Plug-In S!"
"Guilmon, evolve!" Guilmon felt a burst of energy surge through him, giving him enough strength to leap into the air as he began evolving. His head sprouted a pair of horns and a mane of shaggy grey hair. The digital hazard symbol on his chest vanished, replaced with twin symbols on each shoulder. Spikes grew out of his forearms, just below his elbows. The two claws on his feet now became three, becoming longer and more lethal-looking. Finally, beads appeared and wrapped themselves around his forearms and thighs. "Growmon!" he roared, breathing fire.
"Takato?!" Ruki gasped in disbelief. "What are you doing?! You're in no condition to be here!"
"I couldn't just stay home while all of you were in trouble!" the boy answered, pulling out another card and holding up his D-Ark. "Card Sl-hachooo!" Ruki and the others sweatdropped as Takato sneezed, dropping the card. "Sorry," he sniffled, pulling out another one. "Card Sl-"
"Night Raid!" Vamdemon interrupted, sending a flight of bats at the boy.
"-ash! Aero Wing!" Takato finished, this time slashing the card without incident.
A large pair of leathery wings appeared on Growmon's back as he leapt in protectively in front of his partner. As the bats approached, he opened his mouth, the wings on his back spreading wide. "Exhaust Flame!" A massive wall of fire erupted from his mouth, incinerating the bats as it flew towards Vamdemon.
"Ghhh!" Unable to move in time, Vamdemon instead wrapped his cape around him, lessening the impact as he was engulfed by the firestorm. "Not good enough, Tamer!" he roared, leaping up and taking to the sky. "Bloody Stream!"
"Takato-kun!" Juri cried as Vamdemon's attack threw up dust and smoke, obscuring her view. The Dead Scream was finally wearing off, but everyone was still groggy.
"Everyone...alright?" Lee asked, shaking his head to clear it.
"I'm fine," Galgomon reported as he stood up, flexing his arms. The other Tamers and Digimon were all up and about, though still disoriented and weakened.
"Leomon," Juri said. "We have to help Takato-kun!"
"Too late for that!" Vamdemon laughed from above. As the Tamers watched with a growing sense of fear, the smoke cleared. Takato's limp form lay in the middle of the street, Growmon lying beside him. Around them, the asphalt had been ripped up, and wrecked vehicles were everywhere.
"TAKATO-KUN!" Juri screamed, running towards the boy's prone body.
**************
"Hmmm..." Devimon mused thoughtfully.
"What is it?" Ice Devimon asked curiously.
"There is much evil energy on this world," the Dark Messenger told him, waving at a group of Black Gears acting as screens. "I've dispatched Black Gears to explore..." His eyes widened as he noticed something. "It can't be! How can he be here?"
"What's wrong?"
"That boy!" Devimon hissed, pointing at one of the screens. "That boy!"
Ice Devimon looked to see one of the Gears displaying a boy with brown hair spiked upwards. A forelock of hair hung over his blue eyes and he walked with a cautious yet confident stride. "What about him?"
"I know him!" Devimon hissed, his eyes glaring and blazing with hatred. "He defeated me once before!"
"Who is he?"
"The only being I hate more than the Holy Beasts and the Chosen Children!" Devimon stalked forward, his face contorted with hate. "Akiyama Ryo!"
