ReImage: Digimon World

by Starlight AT

Fourteen years have passed since the opening of the wormhole connecting the worlds. When an enemy long thought dead shows signs of resurfacing, ten new Digidestined are chosen. However, one of them goes missing, forcing a child with no connection to any of this to search for him in the last place he was seen; the Digital World. Chapter 6 is up!

6. WHAT IS A DIGIVICE?

I THANK JACKPOT 2 FOR HELP ON THIS CHAPTER PAST TEN PAGES

"Normally when you join a team it's supposed to be welcoming and fun, but Haruto made it far from that. A fight began to break out between him and Takara but it was interrupted by Monochromon who were instantly defeated by Loweemon. To calm the tamers, Agunimon let Takara and Haruto duke it out in the Colosseum and their battled ended in a tie, much to the surprise of the group as Haruto was a veteran and Takara a rookie. And to add more shock to the already surprised group Agunimon makes Takara the leader of the Digidestined! The surprises for this girl never end and we were only on day three!" – Zoe Orimoto

CHAPTER 5: WHAT IS A DIGIVICE?

A few days have passed since the brawl between new tamer Takara and veteran tamer Haruto, and during that time the rise in Abnormal Digimon activity has risen to the point that the group concerning of Takara, Agumon, Kurogasa, Gabumon, Marine, Labramon, Haruto, and Tentomon were on constant alert for Digimon that were showing signs of being corrupted and going crazy. The reason as to why this was happening was uncertain, but this latest Digimon was possibly the hope the Digidestined were looking for to solving this.

Night had overcome the Digital World and clouds covered the sky. The only sources of light were various fires from furnaces in the village. Takara rollerbladed through the darkness as fast as she could with Agumon beside her. She still wore her usual attire but a communicator was in her ear and a hip pack wrapped around her waist with the bag sitting on her side.

"You see him Agumon?!" She cried out as Agumon ran alongside her, scanning the area, until he caught sight of a bright orange light that was slowly diminishing in an alleyway.

"I see it! That way!" The baby dinosaur yelled. Takara turned to the sight of the light and followed it. During the time the brunette placed her hand on her Crimson D-Analyzer, pressing one of the two buttons on the side and a green light turned on her communicator. "Lynxmon has been found, am chasing it down right now!"

"You rhymed!" Agumon laughed at the girl's choice of words, causing her to blush but growl at the same time.

"Lynxmon is a tough customer so be careful!" Kurogasa's voice rang through the communicator. "Where are you now?" He asked as Takara jumped a few steps and continued following the light in the darkness.

"Following it to the town square!"

"Stand down rookie I got this…" The voice of Haruto rang through her ear as she growled.

"Agunimon told us to work TOGETHER! And believe me I'm not happy about it! So just hold Lynxmon down until we get there!" She spoke the truth; she would rather fight by herself than work with Haruto. Even after four days there was still bad blood between them, and no matter what the Legendary warriors of the other Digidestined and Digimon did, it still remained. Even so, they were trying to not let their feelings get in the way of the mission. However….

"Listen to my words Rookie; I can do this by myself. Don't get in my way!" At that the line connecting to Haruto's communicator dropped, causing Takara to scream in anger.

"To hell with this I don't need his help! Agumon we're taking Lynxmon first!" She screamed, speeding up after the renegade Digimon. Agumon was panting heavily now but continued to follow his tamer to the town square. Eventually they managed to catch up to the Digimon; its body literally flames lighting up the district. The Digimon attempted to go down an alleyway but was blocked by an coal colored steel wall. The beast growled and turned around, only to come face to face with Takara. She and Agumon were panting heavily, but she managed to laugh and smirk at the Digimon she was finally able to see, its body in the shape of a large cat, wreathed in orange flames. Several triangular patterns ere under its slit cat like eyes, claws extended out, a tale possibly a foot long; in truth it looked nothing like the animal it was named after.

"We got you Lynxmon!" Agumon declared.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

Lynxmon

Level: Armor

Attribute: Vaccine

Type: Animal

Families: Nature Spirits

Techniques: Howling Buster, Wild Nail Claws

Lynxmon is the Armor Digivolved form of Gatomon through the Digi-Egg of Courage. It is the rival of Garurumon in both power and ferocity.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

"Alright buddy! Surrender quietly and we won't-" Takara was swiftly interrupted by the Lynxmon charged at the girl

"Wild Nail Claws!" The claws on the Digimon glowed as he tried to slice at Takara, only for her to dodge. Once she did the Lynxmon took the opportunity to run away. Agumon gave chase.

"Pepper Breath!" Agumon cried out as he fired one fireball after another at the Lynxmon. By the time of the fifth, Agumon managed to hit the Lynxmon in the behind, causing it to whimper in pain as it began to slow down. Takara caught up to the two Digimon.

"You got him!" She yelled in happiness. However the Lynxmon turned towards her, growling at the mere presence of the female's appearance. The fiery beast flexed its claws. Takara took this as a sign for battle and brought out her D-Analyzer. Agumon took a battle stance, ready to fight the deranged cat like Digimon. The flames on the Lynxmon increased, hoping to intimidate its opponents, but failed to do so. In fact, it enticed Takara, the familiar fractal code wrapped around the female's hand.

"Ready Agumon?"

"Let's do this!" Agumon declared, sounding more confident than before. Takara was about to scan the code in her hands till…

"Super Shocker!" A large electrical bolt hit the Lynxmon in its back, causing the beast to whimper and jump over Takara's head, not even nicking her as it landed on the ground before sprinting away. The girl stare dumbfounded. It ran away.

The Digimon RAN AWAY!

The one that was responsible…she knew who it was. She knew that voice. Buzzing wings echoed through the darkness till they got louder, signaling her that whatever was approaching her was close. It was Tentomon. The insect landed in front of Agumon as he looked around.

"Did I miss?"

"No…" She replied, trying with all her might not to hit the insect. "YOU GOT HIM BACK UP AND RUNNING."

"You lost him!?" Takara turned around to see Haruto walking towards her, anger and disbelief on his face. "Seriously you can't do one thing right!"

"I would have had him if YOU didn't get in my way!" Takara accused the young man, growling and matching his glare. The young man gritted his teeth.

"Didn't I say to leave everything to me? You obviously fail as a leader. Remember Agunimon's words? Take everyone's opinion into account!"

"And he also said to work TOGETHER! A word that obviously doesn't appear in your dictionary!"

"I'm the best tamer on this team! I don't have to work with others to achieve my goals!" Haruto countered the female's words. Anger was an understatement. Three days, not even three days and she wanted to murder him. Agumon and Tentomon could only watch in shame as their tamers bickered at each other instead of worrying about the Digimon at large.

"Whatever high horse you're on you needed to get the hell off!"

"My ego isn't the problem here!"

"It's been a problem for the last three fuckin days!"

"Both of you enough!" The two light and medium brown haired tamers turned to the darker brunette. Alongside him were Gabumon, Marine and Labramon, each looking just as upset and angry with Haruto and Takara as Kurogasa was. Both brown haired teens glared at one another before turning away. Kurogasa sighed, aggravated with the two teens. As such he turned towards the Digimon who refused to stop them, instead choosing to watch.

"Agumon, Tentomon, why didn't you stop them?"

"Our attempts have been rather null and void the past couple of days. Trying to stop them is like trying to stop Bakemon form scaring people," Tentomon defended as Agumon shook his head. Kurogasa face palmed himself, dragging his hand down his face rather harshly. Something had to be done with these two or else they will start a war before anyone else had the chance. A small beeping alerted the young teen as he reached for his Digivice and pressed the button.

"Who's this?" He whispered as the beeping also drawn the attention of the once bickering brunettes.

"Lynxmon has been captured." Kurogasa's eyes widen. This voice, was it really him?!

"Kenta?"

"Correct."

"Someone sensible, thank god…" Kurogasa muttered, earning a tilted head to the right for Agumon and his brown eyed tamer blinking in rapid succession. Haruto however sighed rather harshly.

"Great…."

"You have no clue how happy I am to know you're here!" Kurogasa sounded like all his worries were thrown out the window. "Where are you at?"

"Outside the south entrance."

"Alright we'll be right there!" Kurogasa hung up on the mysterious Kenta and turned back to the group. "Kenta's in town and he had Lynxmon!" He announced, causing Marine to smile, Haruto to growl slightly, and Takara confused.

"Who's Kenta?" The dark haired tamer smiled.

"Someone sensible and knows when the job needs to get done, perhaps a bit too done," Kurogasa answered as he began looking back at memories.

"Where is he?" Marine asked while Labramon snuggled up to her leg, causing the young girl to pick the dog up and hold him.

"South entrance of the town, so let's get going," He declared. As they began walking, Haruto and Takara exchanged one more glare before said girl huffed and the boy closed his eyes.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

It didn't take them ten minutes even ten minutes to reach the South Gate. As they drew closer a small, fiery glow that belonged to Lynxmon illuminated the lightless gate. What they saw was Lynxmon trapped in an odd circuit like net that didn't catch on fire from Lynxmon's body, possibly because the Digimon was knocked out. Standing next to him was a young man of about five foot and six inches. As the group drew closer they could see a slim but somewhat tone body outline, black or incredibly dark brown hair that spiked at the end and a small ponytail on the back of his head that barely touched his shoulder blades, bangs brushed to the right and covered by a sandy colored bandana. His short sleeved jacket had similar color flame designs but the jacket itself was a cream color with white fake fur across the neckline. A black, long sleeved, V-neck shirt with white strings outlining the v-shaped collar was under the jacket, blue Capri jean pants with brown belt straps wrapped around his upper right leg, complete with a pair of monochrome colored shoes. Footsteps approaching alerted him to the company, his lavender tinted eyes gazing over the group. Kurogasa walked over to him and held out his hand, for which the teen took.

"Long time Kenta."

"Same here. Glad to see your doing well," The young man known as Kenta smiled, though it was rather small as his gaze fell onto Haruto, with Tentomon beside him and Marine who was holding Labramon.

"Don't worry everyone is in good shape!"

"I can see that for myself," He replied as he glanced over to Agumon and Takara, who were amazed and shocked at the sleeping Digimon in the net. "And they're?"

"The new chosen of Agunimon and designated leader of the Digidestined," Kurogasa couldn't have been blunter, which earned his a rather surprised expression from the young man. Kenta's eyes were widened but his mouth remained closed.

"You're not…." Kenta began but was interrupted by Kurogasa's nod, confirming the answer. The boy turned back to the girl and watched her before walking over to her. Takara caught a glimpse of him at the side of her eyes and stood up.

"You are…Kenta right?"

"Kenta Hayate is my full name," He replied as he extended his hand out for Takara, who instantly took it.

"Takara Asakura, and this is my Digimon Partner Agumon," She gestured to Agumon as he said his name, him bowing in respect to the rules of introductions he was taught.

"Asakura…" The young man whispered. "You're the girl Takeshi talks about."

"I…guess….what HAS Takeshi said about me?" Takara has heard from day one that Takeshi talked about her to the others, but she didn't know what. He isn't the type to say anything rude about her, especially given her past, but she was curious as to what he said about her, given that person's personality.

"We'll talk about that later. We should return to the Colosseum with Lynxmon. I assume that is where you are taking him?" Kenta brought up the mission that Takara and Agumon currently forgot, and were about to say something until the red ladybug like Digimon spoke.

"Kenta, may I ask the whereabouts of Gomamon?" The young man pointed to the Lynxmon. Tentomon turned to the left to see a Digimon waddling out from behind the net. It looks like a white, furry seal creature with no nose and had long ears, purple markings, orange-red hair in a Mohawk, large green eyes, large claws, a short tail, and a W-shaped smile with two pointed teeth protruding out. Takara blinked in rapid succession, half of her brain tempting her to hug the white seal looking Digimon, and the other trying to keep her from doing so, but was slowly agreeing. "There you are!"

"I've been here the entire time! You just didn't look."

"So this is…a Gomamon?" Takara asked.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

Gomamon

Level: Rookie

Attribute: Vaccine

Type: Sea Animal

Families: Deep Savers

Techniques: Marching Fishes, Claw attack, Sharp Edge

Gomamon is from the Ice Region even though most of them are in the Water Region. The red fur growing along his back from the top of its head moves according to his emotions, and when he gets angry the fur bristles. Gomamon's claws are strong enough to easily break through solid ice, so you'll have a painful experience if you take it lightly.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

"Hiya Takara, Agumon!" Gomamon raised a….flipper…at the two newcomers, who just stood their dumbfounded that the little guy knew their names. That is, until Labramon spoke.

"Gomamon heard your introduction from earlier," The dog snickered as both tamer and Digimon nodded slowly.

"So you got Lynxmon let's go!" Haruto spoke in a rather rushed tone, indicating that he wanted to leave the area. Takara growled.

"And how are we supposed to do that?" At this Kurogasa walked over to Lynxmon and pulled out his D-Analyzer. With a few quick button presses, the Fractal Code appeared from the captured Digimon. Takara and Agumon were in shock as they watched the data form the Lynxmon being scanned and gathered into the Digivice, including the Digimon itself!

"Wait wait wait they told us not to purify him!" Takara was panicking. Why did Kurogasa do that?! The girl tried to look for the Digiegg, hopping to stop its flight to the sky, but for some reason, she didn't see it. Where was the egg? Kurogasa scanned the data so it should be there…right? Or did she already miss it. The panicking girl made said male frown.

"Don't worry Takara, Lynxmon is just captured in here," Kurogasa explained as he pointed to his device. Takara narrowed her eyes at the screen, and sure enough, a picture of Lynxmon, in the net, was inside. The female brunette gapped.

"H-ho-ho-HOW!?"

"It's another ability of the D-Analyzers.," Kenta spoke as the twin tailed turn to him. "We can store Digimon inside them, whether our own or one with an item created by Mercurymon is on them. The net was made specifically to capture Lynxmon. Weren't you told any of this?"

"No! I wasn't told anything besides what I found out for myself!" Takara babbled. Kenta sighed as he turned towards Kurogasa, raising an eyebrow.

"There has been a lot going on in the past few days so let's leave it at that." The boy raised his hands in a mock surrender. Kenta turned towards Marine, who merely lowered her head, and Haruto, who turned away, not giving a care.

"The legendary warriors haven't told her also just so you know," Haruto declared, causing Kenta to raise an eyebrow. A simple shrug and he began walking away, several members of the group following. Takara remained behind, staring at the D-Analyzer. Agumon remained with her as well as Gomamon.

"Something wrong?" Gomamon asked. The girl shook her head.

"No…it's nothing…." She then ran after the group ahead of her. A million thoughts trapped in her head, but all thinking about one person, Takeshi.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

"Kenta! Excellent work, as always!" Bokomon declared ecstatically.

"I agree. You always get the job done!" Agunimon added to the flattery. The group was now back at the Colosseum, Lynxmon being released and taken to a room by a Flamedramon and Commandramon.

"I have a few questions, beginning with the new adition to the team."

"Fire away!" Agunimon replied. For some reason he was in a rather chirper mood, something Takara didn't like.

"Why did you make her the team leader if you didn't tell her about the D-Analyzer's?" Agunimon froze. In mere seconds the Warrior of Flame became a statue. A few short seconds passed before Kenta sighed heavily.

"You forgot, didn't you?" Takara and Agumon both felt like they were hit with lightning. The Warrior of Flame, the Great lord of Flame Terminal, the protector of the Fire region, forgot something as simple as THAT!? Takara was beginning to feel that she should punch the Digimon.

"We all make mistakes-"

"Oh don't even use that excuse!" Takara snapped. Agunimon waved his hands slowly.

"Alright alright I'll tell ya in a bit, I'm sorry about that. Anything else?" His gaze switched from the fiery brown eyed girl to the calm lavender eyed boy.

"Yes. Have you heard from Sirena in the last couple of days?"

"Wait….she's still missing?!" Kenta nodded to the warrior's question. Agunimon was flabbergasted. A gloved hand scratched the back of his head. "How can one human be lost for five days?! It's simple to get here! Just hop on a Trailmon, tell them where you want to go and then bam, you're here!"

"I am lost…" Takara whispered, until she felt a tug at her sleeveless hoodie, to which she looked own to see Marine.

"Uhm…see…there is a chosen for Kazemon…and s-s-she…has a habit...of getting…lost…" She paused a few times, being intimidated by the older girl's stare. Takara must have realized this as she loosened the straining muscles in her face to appear kinder.

"Uh…by lost…what are we talking about?"

"Let me put it this way…" Kurogasa sighed. "She was lost in the city for three days, lost her way towards Breezy Village for five days, when all she had to do was stay on a path and not wander off, and then she was lost, mind you, IN A PARK, for TEN DAYS!" Kurogaa growled at memories that were resurfacing. "I have never met anyone with that-" He paused. Takara gave him a rather blank expression, but her eyes narrowed. "She's worse than Takeshi is when it comes to direction."

"Yeah you could have just said that. Wow, talk about an awesome sense of no direction…" She sarcastically replied retaining her expression, until a thought occurred. "Wait, then how long has she been missing now?"

"Seven days!" Gabumon answered.

"Oh then no need to worry. She should be popping up anytime soon!" The brunette prophesized. If going by the mysterious lost girl's track record, if she didn't exceed the ten day limit, she could appear at any moment, right through the front doors. Yeah right! Like that could-

The doors slammed opened and everyone was broken out of their conversations. Standing at the door was a young woman with blond, medium length, slightly wavy hair, her head lowered slightly but enough to obstruct her eyes. She wore a blue tank top that exposed her midriff with a yellow star on the shirt, a blue hoodie similar to Takara's but a lighter shade, turquoise/aquamarine colored pants that extended to her kneecaps, blue shoes, yellow socks and blue fingerless gloves. She raised her head to reveal gray colored eyes and a smile, a rather grateful smile at that.

"Bloody hell I made it!" The girl spoke in an accent that you would find in southern England. She sunk to the floor, practically rubbing her face against it in happiness.

"Hey guys, Sirena's here," Haruto declared with sarcastic honesty.

"Thanks Captain Obvious!" Tentomon replied. From behind the girl at the doors came a new Digimon. It looked like an own with a smaller toothless beak, red eye markings, dark brown body feathers and purple chest feathers with shuriken markings. Its hind legs were yellow, and the wings at the end were like purple claws.

"That's a Falcomon!" Agumon declared.

"Wait, seriously?" Takara asked the baby dinosaur as she scanned the Digimon. "Seems more like an Owlmon to me…" Bokomon cleared his throat as he prepared to explain the new Digimon.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

Falcomon

Level: Rookie

Attribute: Vaccine

Type: Bird

Families: Wind Guardians

Techniques: Scratch Smash, Ninja Blade, Firecracker Smokescreen

I know it's hard to believe but he is indeed called Falcomon. He lives up in 3000 m-high mountains, but as his wings are not very developed, he can only fly to the extent of gliding. However, since he is a powerful runner instead, Falcomon is able to run about the craggy mountains at great speed. And may I add he is also what you humans call a "Ninja?"

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

"NO really?" Takara placed her hands at her hips.

"That kind of tone is not necessary!" Bokomon snapped. The blond girl stood up and looked straight ahead. Takara flinched slightly at the intensity in the girl's eyes. In seconds the blond was pacing towards her.

"Uh Hi-what?" The girl walked past Takara, completely ignoring the twin tail. Takara turned around to see the girl in front of Agunimon, hands on her hips, a rather smug look on her face.

"I told you I could make it here without a Trailmon!"

"Oh yeah you made it…after a freakin week!" The warrior of Flame retorted to the girl's declaration.

"Details are not important! Fact is, I made it and I won our bet!"

"I said within a week!"

"News flash! Today's the seventh day! Seven days are in a week!" Agunimon cringed. The blond smirked in victory. "So then, where is my memory?!"

"…I'll go get it…" Agunimon left while muttering something under his breath. Takara looked at the warrior's back absentmindedly, before looking at the new girl. Sirena didn't even register her as she moved onto Kurogasa.

"Hey there Kuro-chan doing all right mate?"

"Yes I'm doing fine Sirena," He smiled, until he caught sighed of a flabbergasted twin tailed tamer. Twice the British girl failed to register her. Taking pity the man decided to try and introduced them. "By the way that-"

"Marine! Oh how I missed you so!" The girl known as Sirena ran over to the ten year old and hugged the girl, picking her up. Now it was Kurogasa's turn to be shocked. Not at the girl but at himself. He knew the girl was a bit ditzy but she ignored someone, who was plainly in front of her or behind her, three times.

"I-I-missed you too…. S'il vous plaît laissez-moi partir (Please let me go)!" The smaller girl felt crushed under the hug to the point she begged in her native language to be set free. Sirena blinked rapidly as she let the girl go. A pout and whine escaped her lips.

"Marine I don't speak French you know that!" Marine was to out of breath to respond. Shrugging, Sirena walked over to Kenta and Gomamon.

"Hi Sirena." Kenta said nervously, and that's about as far as he got before said girl squealed.

"AHHHHH! Gomamon it's so good to see you again!" She picked up the seal Digimon, hugging him tightly. "Oh you're just so cute!" Gomamon tried to speak but was unable to as the girl's bear hug was crushing not only his chest but also his neck. A few sputters and gasps for air, as well as wild fin movements, gave the girl the impression that the Digimon in her arms was suffocating and thus released him. The seal Digimon breathed in much needed air.

"Why didn't you say you couldn't breathe?!" Sirena narrowed her eyes.

"Because you were holding my neck!" Gomamon exclaimed with his eyes closed.

"Not my fault you're so adorable to hug!" She huffed.

Takara took this time as a chance to introduce herself. "Hi, I'm-"

"Well you're just as lively as ever." Haruto said dryly, rolling his eyes and interrupting the twin-tail's introduction. Takara glared daggers at the male, fully believing he did that on purpose. Haruto turned to the girl and gave her a smug look. No doubt about it, he did it to infuriate the girl. Sirena turned to him and scoffed.

"Why ever would I change? I'm not surprised you haven't changed yourself," The blond crossed her arms.

"Excuse me..." Takara growled.

"Seriously it's a three day walk form Breezy Village to the city. With a straight path! How were you lost -THIS- time?" Haruto asked.

"I wasn't lost!" Sirena uncrossed her arms but placed one on her side. " i was merely taking the long way around!"

"That IS the long way around!" Tentomon argued.

"I meant the even longer way!"

"YO! BLONDIE TURN THE HELL AROUND!" Sirena jumped and did as told, only to come face to face with a very pissed off Takara with Agumon wrapping himself around her waist, preventing her from hitting the blonde.

"Bloody hell, no need to scream! I'm standing right here!" Sirena said, rubbing her ears. "Just who are you anyway?" Takara trembled.

"After ten minutes of you being here now you take notice of me?!"

"Oh don't start with me you haven't been here that long!" Sirena accused.

"Yeah, she has!" Everyone minus Takara and Haruto screamed. Sirena felt rather small now. She turned to the angry brown-haired girl.

"Are you serious?"

"Yes! I've been here trying to get your attention, but you just ignored me like I was invisible or something!"

"Oooooh dear…" Sirena sweatdropped before she scratched the back of her head. "My mistake, I do apologize…" Takara got out of Agumon's grip and marched right up to Sirena.

"You think a simple apology is enough to make em forgive you?!" A small giggle emanated from the blonde's lips.

"Don't haha me!"

"S-S'il vous plait Takara, S'il vous plait pardonner à son…" Marine begged. Takara thought it over until she crossed her arms.

"This time…"

"WAIT! You can understand Marine?!"

"What?!"

"That's brill ace, just ace!"

"Huh?" Takara was completely blank. Was she talking about what Marine said? "I…kinda understood…I took French last year…is that what you mean?" Falcomon sighed and walked over to Takara.

"You'll have to forgive Sirena. She's a bit of a..."

"Scatterbrain?" Takara finished. Falcomon nodded.

"Extremely oblivious is more like it," Kurogasa suggested.

"Oblivious, bad sense of direction, only focuses on what's in front of her, anything else I should know about you?" Takara asked, slumped a bit and looking at the for mentioned girl. She placed her hands on her hips and growled.

"For someone who knows an awful lot about me I don't know anything about you!"

"For crying out loud it's Takara Asakura!" Sirena blinked.

"You're the girl Takeshi keeps yakking about?"

"I'm the only Takara that he hung around like a virus!" She snapped at the blonde's comment.

"There's no reason for you to get pissy!" She replied as she flicked the female's forehead.

"I have every right to! You ignored me! And I was standing right in front of you when you opened the doors!? How the hell do you miss someone like that!?"

"Don't take it personal. She does that to everyone. It took her about three days just to notice me." Kurogasa said, sighing at the memory.

"It was not three days!" Sirena huffed. "It was two days and twenty-one hours."

"How did this girl ever get chosen to be a Digidestined with her character?" Takara exasperated.

"I've been wondering the same thing about you since Agunimon picked you out of all the more "capable" candidates out there." Haruto said, looking away with his hands behind his back.

Sensing that his partner was about to snap at any second and charge at the boy, Agumon decided to change to subject to avert her anger. "Speaking of Agunimon, where did he go off too anyway?" He asked Falcomon.

"Oh I had no idea your partner was around!" Sirena shouted in glee after she finally took notice of Agumon. "Oh you're just so adorable!"

"WHAT THE HELL!?" Takara shrieked, causing Sirena to cover her ears in pain.

"What the hell indeed!" Everyone turned around to see the aforementioned warrior, one hand by his ear. "Care to tell me why everyone is yelling!?"

"Just look at the people gathered around." Haruto responded uncaringly.

Agunimon sighed and looked over the gathered Digidetsined. 'I leave them alone for five minutes and already their yelling louder than Takuya and Koji during one of their fights.' The warrior of Flame thought as he sighed. "Whatever. Everyone follow me. It's time for your Digivice lessons!"

"What!?" Sirena screamed.

"You gotta be kidding me!" Haruto replied. "Why the hell do I have to go to a lesson the newbie has to learn!?" At the mention of the word 'newbie,' Takara growled.

"Good question, now I have to put up with you whining!"

"I did not travel ten days to attend some cram session!" Sirena argued, to which Kenta sighed heavily, and a bit aggravated.

"Takara is part of the team so I understand why she needs the lesson," Kenta answered. "But why do you want us to go with you?"

"Because there is a function I didn't talk about, a new one…" This got everyone to shut their mouths instantly.

"Is it a food function, because I'm starting to get hungry?" Agumon asked. Takara landed a fist right on his skull.

"No, but something you might take an interest in. So let's go, and NO. COMPLAINING." Agunimon couldn't stress the final swords enough. With great reluctance form four members, each walked ahead of the twin tailed, waiting for them to be far enough away before she followed herself. This hesitant action made Agumon tilt his head a bit.

"Agumon wait!" Gabumon cried out, causing the young dinosaur to stop as Takara continued.

"Normally we don't get the chance to be alone, so do you wanna hang out with us?" Falcomon asked, to which Agumon smiled.

"You mean that?"

"Well yeah, you're our friend now!" Gomamon answered.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

Everyone was now inside the conference room the warriors used a few times. Each of the six tamers sat in the respective seats of their warrior Agunimon standing at the head of the table, next to Takara on the right and an empty seat on the left. Takara had looked around the room and saw four empty seats. She theorized that they must belong to the other tamers and so popped the question.

"Where are the other Tamers?" She asked.

"Currently they are with their respective warriors looking for something. What I am talking about I will explain later. As for now," Agunimon answered, placing a finger on the table and the lights dimmed. A holographic projection of the D-Tectors and the D-Analyzers appeared above the table. "Let's begin the lesson, starting with the basics. As you know the Digivices were originally created to access Digivolution, which is activated by scanning your Fractal Code."

"I've been meaning to ask about that. Don't Humans and Digimon have different codes? How does our Fractal Code affect their evolution?" Takara brought up a decent point, to which Agunimon took note of it.

"That's what we have been studying for some time. It is rare but certain Humans and Digimon have been proven to have the same Fractal Code." This was a shock to Takara.

"But wait Data is like DNA right?!"

"In a way," Agunimon began. "We don't know why or how this is possible, but it is the reason why all of you have been chosen as Digidestined. You were the ones to inherit the ability to bond with Digimon and to help them evolve." Everyone began to look at one another in reply.

"Guess that explains why some of these weaklings were chosen." Haruto murmured, directing it towards the females of the group.

"Sexist or arrogance? Pick one and stick with it!" The twin tailed girl shot up from her seat, same with Sirena but Marine remained in her seat, sulking a bit.

"Haruto! You must cease this attitude with your teammates at once!" Agunimon ordered, glaring at the boy. "Takara and Sirena, remain seated so I may continue!" He told the two girls. They said nothing as they sat down, glaring at Haruto.

Kurogasa, who was sitting next to Marine, lightly placed a hand on her shoulder. She looked up and saw him smiling down at her. "Don't let him get to you. You are just as strong as him in your own way, so try to cheer up Marine." He said to her. Marine had always looked up to Kurogasa as a big brother since they've first met, and has always felt like she had a place on the team with his encouragement. She gave him a small smile and nodded.

Agunimon glanced at the two. They reminded him of how the young man who carried his spirit or one of the other kids would always comfort the youngest of the group whenever he was upset back when they first started their journey, but found it somewhat ironic since Lobomon's chosen seemed much more relaxed than the one he granted his powers to. Eventually all of the gathered chosen noticed his faraway look, with Takara being the first to speak.

"Uh Agunimon, are you okay?"

"Uh yes. Yes I'm fine. Moving on now!" Agunimon replied before anyone else could. Another tap of the table and a list of abilities appeared on the screen next to the D-Analyzer. "Now besides Digivolution, we copied several functions we found useful on the D-Tectors to your D-Analyzers, one of them being the scanning function for purification, compass and radar function to find one another, as well as a communicator app. By utilizing the mic we gave you and syncing it to the Digivice, you can use the device as a sort of cell phone." The screen changed to show the curved communicator the group used during their chase for Lynxmon. "And as I'm sure Kurogasa showed you Takara, you can store Digimon inside the Digivice. We added this around the time of Takeshi's disappearance. Renegade Digimon have a bad habit of running away from us so to make sure that doesn't happen we gave you a capturing function to imprison said Digimon inside the D-Analyzer till we release them. We only had to use this function once so far."

"The Digimon seem to be more aggressive as of late and been fighting us instead of bailing, got any leads as to why?" Kenta asked the Warrior of Flame, who only shook his head. Takara was rather shocked though. The only times the kid talked was when someone talked to him first.

"Sadly no Kenta, but when Loweemon was patrolling the area where those Monochromon attacked, by chance he found a set of footprints that were nearby. This has led us to believe that something, or someone, may be behind the recent attacks."

"But who could it be?" Takara asked out loud. The memory of the gray haired boy from a few days ago returned into her mind, which she instantly shook off. He had to be lying.

"Don't know, but we'll find out. Now then," Agunimon pressed another button and the screen returned to the D-Analyzer but projected a 3-D image of it and showed the bottom of the device. "Here is a nifty function Mercurymon added-"

"Nifty?" Haruto parroted, though it was more in sarcastic teasing than anything. Agunimon rolled his eyes in response.

"Shut it. Anyway Takara you still have that memory chip?" In response the girl reached into her pocket and pulled out the said item with Hyogamon's name on it. "That's what we call a DigiMemory, memory cards that contain the impure data of the Digimon the Digivice purifies. It's inserted to the bottom slot that pops open, then your Digimon can use one attack or ability of that Digimon's data. Sadly the chips are a onetime use and once you do you can't use them anymore."

"But if we're inserting bad data into our Digimon wouldn't that corrupt them also?"

"Under normal circumstances yes, but the DigiMemory's are purified once used and are rendered safe for Agumon and the others to use. We added this feature in case of battling Digimon that could be more powerful than yours currently is. The different abilities and powers of the DigiMemory are a sort of trump card for you to use, so only use them when you need to, got it?" Agunimon explained. Takara nodded her head in understanding.

"Alrighty we went through all the goodies of the Digivice, so then what's this new function?" Sirena asked, to which Agunimon smiled.

"Everyone, call out your Fractal Codes." He ordered. Everyone looked at each other in confusion but obliged. Takara's crimson, Kurogasa's light blue, Haruto's indigo, Marine's purple, Kenta's deep green, and Sirena's magenta each appeared in mere seconds on their left hands. "As you know your Fractal Codes are a different color compared to the usual rings. There is a reason for that and it will help activate the new function Soul Link." A press of the button and the top of the 3-D Digivice was displayed. Various text boxes appeared and Agunimon walked around. "Soul Link takes advantage of the similar Fractal Code you and your Digimon share and transform that bond into a special power we call a Program Skill. Depending on the person, these programs can enhance a Digimon's power even further, or cause massive regeneration to the point of near immortality." The Digidestined were in stunned silence, Sirena having taken off her feet from the desk and Haruto wide eyed. What powers could I have? Agunimon know that was the question on everyone's mind.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

Inside another room adjacent to that of the meeting room, the group of Digimon was playing with various, balls, going down slides and just having fun. Agumon and Tentomon were passing around a red rubber ball; Labramon and Gomamon were going down one of the slides, leaving Gabumon and Falcomon to catch up with each other. Sky blue walls with white fluffy clouds painted onto them, both large and small cushion building blocks, tiny slides and other goodies littered the room. If anything the room was nothing more than a child's play room.

"Did the Legendary Warriors make this?" Agumon asked the bug Digimon as they passed around the ball.

"Oh yes. You see most of the Digimon here are newborns. If I recall your three weeks old correct?"

"I'll be turning four weeks old tomorrow!" He chirped up. Gomamon and Labramon walked over to him with smiles.

"So that makes you the youngest of the group!" Gomamon replied.

"Then who's the oldest?"

"That would be yours truly," Falcomon replied as he walked over to the baby dinosaur with Gabumon. "I am actually seven months old. Everyone else was born two to four weeks later."

"But just because we were born a few months ago doesn't mean we don't mature by the time we reach Rookie." Gabumon told him. Agumon smiled.

"No offense but I'm glad I'm not the only child here."

"It's understandable," Labramon commented.

"It's better to be around those your age right?" Gomamon suggested. "After all we're all friends' right?" That caused Agumon to frown.

"If only our friends could…"

"What was that?" Labramon asked.

"Oh sorry. I was just wondering why our humans friends can't get along like us..." Agumon admitted.

"Humans are just weird like that Agumon. Although they do have their differences, but once everyone gets to know one another, I'm positive they'll be able to see eye to eye." Tentomon reassured his friend.

"And it's not only humans who can't get along. I've heard rumors that Agunimon and Lobomon argue every now and then." Gabumon said.

"Rumor?! That's a fact! I've seen it happen before to!" Labramon replied. "Loweemon had to stop them and it wasn't pretty...actually it was rather funny!" He chuckled as the memory washed anew in his mind.

"This just proves my point, so cheer up and have a little faith in our partners okay?"

Agumon looked up at the gathered Digimon before him. He smiled and stood up. "Okay! I'll believe in them!"

"That's the spirit!" Labramon chimed in.

"Since your one of us now..." Gomamon started, grinning.

"I think it's only fair to officially welcome you." Gabumon finished, also holding a wide smirk.

"Dogpile on the new guy!" Labramon shouted. At his command, all of the Digimon jumped on Agumon. They were all laughing and having a lot of fun, but it wouldn't last for long.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

Flamedramon and Commandramon were scanning the data of the Lynxmon who was now free of the net but put under to prevent him from going wild. Both waiting for the scan to complete and once it did an image of Lynxmon appeared with various dots on its back, left paw, tail and head. Datalog boxes appeared with the points detailing why those dots were there to begin with. What both Digimon saw caused both to gasp in shock, fear portraying on their faces.

"Alert Agunimon this instant he needs to know!" Commandramon screamed as Flamedramon was about to exit the medic room, only for the door to open and to come face to face with a human and Digimon.

"Who are you?! No unauthorized human or Digimon are allowed in here!" Flamedramon told the duo.

"I know that. I just came here to take back that thing you stole from me." The young man was Riku, a smirk on his face. "Impmon!"

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

A large explosion set off, alerting the tamers and Warrior of Flame inside of the conference room.

"What the bloody hell was that!?" Sirena exclaimed.

"An explosion dumbass!" Haruto sarcastically answered. Takara rolled her eyes.

"Thanks, it's kinda obvious!"

"Stop yelling, get your Digimon and join up with me later I'm going to check it out!" Agunimon's voice couldn't be stricter as everyone flinched and immediately ran out of the conference room, leaving the Warrior to pull up a new 3-D image, that being of the Colosseum. A portion of it was blinking red with the words "MEDICAL DORM" next to it. "DAMMIT!" He slammed his fists into the table before running to the section.

Agumon and the others were still in the dogpile when they heard the explosion. The slight quake that followed caused everyone to tumble around a bit till they were all off of Agumon. The dinosaur Digimon immediately stood up and in response.

"What was that?"

"I think it was an explosion," Gaubmon replied as he rubbed his head.

"Are we being attacked?!" Gomamon asked.

"Its possible, or else Lynxmon broke out!" Tentomon guessed. As they were still wondering what the source of the explosion was, Takara and the others ran in.

"Okay guys were being attacked so let's go!" The summary of the situation couldn't be any shorter, causing each of the Digimon, sans Agumon, to sweatdrop.

"Well she doesn't beat around the bush..." Gabumon whispered.

"She doesn't give details either..." Labramon added in a similar low tone.

"What was that?" Takara asked the two whispering Digimon.

"Nothing!" They said in unsion.

"Whatever, let's go already!"

"You got it Takara!" Takara and Agumon ran out of the playroom to the site of the explosion, leaving the others behind.

"Hey wait don't go by yourself!" Kurogasa screamed as he and Gabumon tailed, the rest of the group following suite.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

Agunimon ran down the hallway, hoping to make it to the medic room before something else happens. Sadly the moment he turned the corner, he was met with a large hole and Riku standing there. Lynxmon was nowhere in sight and the two dragon type Digimon were lying under some rubble.

"Hey kid, what do you think you're doing here?!" Agunimon asked, glaring him down.

"Agunimon, Legendary Warrior of Flame, pleasure to meet you in person." Riku said, giving him a slight bow. "I've heard much about you and the other Warriors and I must say I'm impressed."

"I wonder by whom?"

"I'm not big on repeating myself so I'll wait till the Digidestined get here. For now, why don't we chat to pass the time?" Riku offered, taking a seat on some rubble.

"Sorry, but when someone I know appears on my doorstep and causes an explosion," Agunimon's vents spewed fire form them. "I shot first then talk later!"

"Wow, and here I thought Takara was the hothead of the bunch. No wonder you picked her." Riku said with an amused smirk. He stood up and dusted off his jacket before addressing Agunimon. "Now that I think about it, isn't what you just said something Takuya would have said?"

Agunimon's jaw dropped at the mention of that name. He growled and pointed his fist right at Riku, his right arm underneath. "How do you know about Takuya?!"

Riku smirked. "Information is my forte. In fact, I know all about the Spirit Digidestined, and your previous adventures."

"Then you must know what happens when I get angry kid!" Agunimon shouted, on the verge of unleashing a fury of Pyro Darts.

"Would you really attack a human being who can't even fight back?" Agunimon snarled. He had to calm down. He can't attack a defenseless human. If he did, that was more than enough incentive for the governments to attack him.

"Dammit…" He reluctantly held his hands at his side.

"That's a good Legendary Warrior." Riku taunted, talking to him as if he were some dog. "Now then, care to reconsider our little chat?"

"Fine! If you want to talk, then tell me what you're doing here and where is Lynxmon!"

"Riiight...Lynxmon...see...My partner and I decided that in your hands, he would go to waste."

"So you decided to kill him?!"

"Not exactly." Riku placed his face on his balled up fist in a thinking manner. "Let's see...what do you call it...OH YEAH! Purification right?" It was then that he took out a device, one Agunimon was all too familiar with. Eyes wide and mouth dropped, Agunimon couldn't believe it.

"No...That's a-"

"D-Analyzer correct?" The base was pure black with the grip being a navy blue and the rest have dark gray touches.

"Where did you get that?" He demanded.

"I know a guy." Riku said, fiddling with the device in his hands.

"Answer me right now human!" Agunimon's anger was now reaching its boiling point. In mere seconds of his scream, the Digidestined arrived with Takara in the lead with Agumon. The mere look of the boy's face made her gasp but then her face warped into anger.

"YOU!"

"You remember me? I'm flattered!"

"How could I forget the little pervert who kissed me last time?! Ohhhh, you are so gonna get it when I get my hands on you!" Takara shouted. Everyone in the room sweat dropped at her little outburst over the apparent stranger, all except for Haruto and Tentomon.

"I take it you two have met before?" Kurogasa asked.

"Yeah the morning after we talked with my grandmother, he pops up, kisses me, and declares he's my enemy!"

"And you couldn't tell us this because?!" Haruto screamed. Takara turned to him.

"BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO REMEMBER!"

"Harsh, but then again it's you after all so no big surprise there," Riku shrugged. Haruto's eyes were wide. He couldn't believe it. It was HIM. Why was he here!? Tentomon saw the hesitation tremble off of his tamer's body and tapped him.

"Haruto you must remain calm."

"Now that everyone's present and accounted for, I think it's time I officially introduce myself. My name is Riku Takamine!"

"We don't care who you guys are! Just tell us what you think you're doing here!" Agunimon said irritated. In response was a smirk, but there was something under it. Not evil, not arrogance, but something Takara couldn't put her finger on. It sent chills up her spine, telling her to run. Oh, now she knew what the weird feeling was; it was danger.

Riku raised his left hand, a black Fractal Code ring rotating around his hand. "Impmon." Said Digimon smirked.

"Time to rock, ba-boom!" Riku scanned his data with the D-Analyzer in his right hand.

"Execute, DIGIVOLUTION ACTIVATE!"

DIGIVOLUTION ACTIVATE

Impmon Digivolve to...DEVIMON!

Standing in Impmon's former place was a man like Digimon with glowing red eyes. His body was covered in jet-black leather, wings that were torn, belts all over his body, skull markings, and a bright red mark on his chest. A smirk was on the Digimon's face that brought one word to Takara's mind.

Evil…

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

Devimon

Level: Champion

Attribute: Virus

Type: Fallen Angel

Families: Nightmare Soldiers

Techniques: The Touch of Evil, Death Hand

Although it was originally a shining Angemon-species Digimon, Devimon became a fallen angel when it was won over to the Dark Side and fell to the Dark Area. It has a fiendish personality, but due to its cunning it is also an extraordinarily creative thinker.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

"I must be seeing things! Did he just make his Digimon Digivolve with a D-Analyzer?!" Kurogasa spoke after seeing the transformation.

"Yes, he did." Kenta answered, wary of this new foe.

"Bloody hell..." Sirena trembled at the sight of Devimon while Marine hid behind her in fear. Haruto however was completely frozen. Flashes of memories, one where a Devimon was standing above a Kabuterimon washed afresh in his mind. This was not happening! Why is he scared? He can finally get revenge for that day! Haruto brought out his Digivice.

"WHY ARE YOU ALL JUST STANDING THERE!?" All of the people he was forced to call allies turned to him in shock. "MAKE YOUR DIGIMON DIGIVOLVE!"

"Whoa Haruto, what's the rush mate?" Sirena asked him, but he simply ignored her as his indigo fractal code appeared in his hand.

"Tentomon front and center!" Haruto ignored the girl's question as Tentomon flew.

"Execute! DIGIVOLUTION ACTIVATE!"

DIGIVOLUTION ACTIVATE

Tentomon Digivolve to...KABUTERIMON!

Kabuterimon remained levitating in the air. The growl the insectoid Digimon released made Devimon smirk.

"Didn't I kick your ass last time? What makes you think you can win again?"

"We fought before?" Riku asked before he snapped his fingers. "Ah yeah, I remember now."

"Hold the phone?! Haruto you lost?!" The British young girl was in utter shock, and she wasn't the only one. Haruto remained silent at this accusation and instead ordered Kabutetimon to attack. The large bug Digimon obeyed his tamer's orders.

"Electro Shocker!" Devimon did not lose his smirk and instead of worrying, raised his hand. The large ball of electricity collided with the fallen angel Digimon's hand, what sounded like a large frequency from a dying TV echoing through the place. The attack did not even faze Devimon or even move the jet black devil. His hands curled around the ball until he completely crushed the ball. Shock and surprise was the expression everyone possessed.

"Was that your best shot? Please, that didn't even tickle!" Devimon taunted, flexing the hand he used to stop the attack. Haruto gritted his teeth in shame. She wouldn't admit it but she thought this would help Haruto with his "it's all about me' thing he has got going for him, but this was an emergency. Takara sighed as she stepped forward, her crimson Fractal Code appearing.

"You gonna try next girly?" Devimon challenged, to which Takara smirked.

"Why not? Let's go, EXECUTE! DIGIVOLUTION ACTIVATE!"

DIGIVOLUTION ACTIVATE

Agumon Digivolve to...GREYMON!

"Now it's the princess turn huh?" Takara felt a blood vessel pop.

"I am not a princess!"

"That's no surprise you aren't."

"Wha-wha-wha-GET HIM!" Takara screamed as Greymon charged.

"Devimon, you know what to do." Riku said calmly, unfazed by the charging Champion. As Greymon charged so did Devimon.

"Nova Blast!" Greymon fired his signature attack but Devimon effortlessly dodged it before punching Greymon below the chin, delivering an uppercut.

"Death Hand!" Devimon called out as a beam of unholy light was released from his hand, directly hitting Greymon and sending him flying backwards.

"Greymon!" Takara cried out as she watched her friend slam into the ground, but miraculously not de-Digivolving.

"Alright I had enough! Gabumon!"

"Gomamon!"

"Falcomon!"

"L-Labramon!" Each Digimon responded to their tamer's call and charged forth as each chosen pulled out their D-Analyzers, their Fractal Codes ready to be scanned.

"Execute! DIGIVOLUTION ACTIVATE!"

DIGIVOLUTION ACTIVATE!

Gabumon Digivolve to...GARURUMON

Gomamon Digivolve to...IKKAKUMON!

Falcomon Digivolve to...PECKMON!

Seasarmon is an ally to those that are kind-hearted, and will try to protect his Tamer from every calamity, even if he has to sacrifice his own body. Contrary to its heroic appearance, Seasarmon usually basks leisurely in the sunlight, due to its docile personality. However, the sunlight is an important factor for Seasarmon, because it charges its life energy.

DIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODEDIGICODE

The four Digimon now surrounded Devimon.

"Now it's four against one? That doesn't seem fair." He said, chuckling. "For you anyway." He added with an evil smirk.

"Howling Blaster!" Blue flames emanated from Garurumon's jaws.

"Harpoon Torpedo!" Ikkakumon's horn shot out of his head, only to be immediately replaced and horn that was fired opened to reveal a missile.

"Kunai Wing!" Peckmon threw kunai-like sharp, bladed feathers.

"Tee Dia!" An unlimited number of arrows that were sunlight flew towards Devimon.

"Amusing." Devimon raised his hands, the ground quaking. The attacks of the Digimon were getting closer. But they never managed to touch him. Large chunks of the Colosseum wall flew towards the attacks, taking the brunt of the attacks. Devimon smirked and teleported. Each of the chosen Digimon freaked out, looking all over the place. The next thing they knew, they were flying all over the place, slamming into walls and into the ground.

"How did he do that?" Sirena asked. Most, if not all the members were flabbergasted. Devimon smirked in victory, until he felt flames hitting him on the back of his head. Devimon turned around, only to be round housed kicked by Agunimon in the face. This sent Devimon flying a bit but he managed to brace himself.

"Finally, a challenge!" Devimon said with glee.

"I'm more than a match for you!" Agunimon yelled.

"I don't doubt that Legendary Warrior! This is the perfect chance to test my limits against someone of your caliber!"

Agunimon cried out as fire enveloped his arms. "Pyro Punch!"

Devimon extended his hand, unholy light gathering into it. "Death Hand!" Agunimon managed to dodge the powerful hit and tried to roundhouse kick him, but Devimon raised one of his elongated arms and blocked it. Grabbing Agunimon's leg he prepared to throw him, until Agunimon's flames erupted from his foot gauntlet and burned his hand. Devimon released him and tried to stop the pain in his hand. In retaliation the Warrior of Flame punched the fallen angel sending him flying. Devimon slammed right into a wall, reducing it into rubble. He staggery stood back up, as Agunimon strode over to him.

"I guess you were nothing but talk after all." He said, his flames engulfing his hands. Riku gritted his teeth at the outcome of the battle.

'I never thought he was this powerful. I was hoping we could do some damage, but it looks like I overestimated Devimon's strength against this guy.' He thought, trying to think up a plan. He then shouted to Devimon. "Devimon, looks like we'll have to use our trump card sooner than I expected!" Riku then pulled out a DigiMemory.

"You gotta be kidding me!" Agunimon screamed as Riku entered the memory chip into the D-Analyzer.

"He's got a DigiMemory too?" Marine said in shock.

"Two can play at that game!" Takara declared, taking out her own DigiMemory.

"Hold on Takara." Kurogasa said, placing a hand on her shoulder. "You only have one DigiMemory on you. If you use it now and it doesn't work then..." He trailed off.

"We have to do something!" Takara screamed, but it was too late. Devimon unleashed the new data. The image of Plesiomon deviated behind him as his smirk grew wider.

"So Agunimon, rumor has it you can't swim well..."

"Oh crap..." Agunimon whined as Devimon unleashed an incredible water blast at Agunimon, completely enveloping the Warrior of Flames. The water morphed from a water blast and converged into a water ball. The Digidestined couldn't hear Agunimon's screams as the water muted his every sound. Seeing Agunimon suffer caused anger to rage in the goggle head's eyes as she ran towards him. Greymon saw this and immediately stop up, intending to stop both his tamer and save the warrior entrapped in the blue liquid. From the corner of his red eye Devimon saw the incoming dinosaur and smirked.

"Heh, go ahead and try you fools, but with every DigiMemory I use, it becomes infused with my dark powers." Takara ignored the Digimon and ran after Riku, ready to punch him as Greymon tried to charge into Devimon. Riku had his eyes closed as he looked down, seemingly unaware of the approaching Tamer.

"You can't defeat my Digimon so now you're going after me? And here I thought the good guys always fight fair." He said, smirking and looking relaxed.

"Last I checked I wasn't a hero!" She slammed her fist into the gray haired by but failed to hit him. He simply dodged.

"Then I won't feel bad about doing this!" He pressed a few buttons on his D-Analyzer, and glowing dark purple energy blade appeared from it. Riku ran up to Takara, and pushed the blade inches from her neck.

Takara was barely able to stop herself as she saw the blade inches away from her neck. The smug look on Riku's face caused her to grit her teeth.

" I'm gonna freakin kill you..."

"Now I have two captives. Should I try my luck with three?"

"Since when did the D-Analyzer come with a lightsaber more?" Sirena asked.

"They don't, at least to my knowledge that is." Kurogasa said. He glanced over at Haruto, who was still shaken up. Greymon tried to slam his horn into Devimon's body, but a fist to the face and a well-timed beam managed to send Greymon flying once more, but that was the last of it. As he flew the large dinosaur turned back into the baby reptile and tumbled. Once he stopped his body went limp, a few moans and whines barely audible to anyone.

"AGUMON!" Takara screamed.

"One down, five to go!" Devimon smirked.

The rest of the Digimon began charging towards the fallen angel champion, intent on tearing him to pieces. Devimon waved his hand and swatted them all away like flies, each landing in a different place.

Takara tried to run to her injured Digimon but Riku grabbed her arm and roughly held it behind her arm, trapping her and placing the side area of the blade to the female's neck.

"Sorry princess but you reap what you sow."

"STOP CALLING ME THAT!" Her voiced was covered by the various charges and yells of the Chosen Digimon battling Devimon.

"Pitiful fools!" Devimon extended his wings and glided over towards his opponents. He passed through them all very quickly, slashing away at each of them with his claws. Almost all of the Chosen Digimon were reverted back to Rookie, except for Kabuterimon, who saw the oncoming attack and used his helmet to take the brunt of it.

"Looks like you have gotten stronger!" Devimon declared as he flew towards him, both Digimon trying to exchange blows. Haruto gritted his teeth, his arms shaking with considerable force.

"I've been training for this moment since you defeated me! I won't let Haruto down again!" Kabuterimon shouted, determined to make up for his loss the last time they squared off against each other. A cackled was released from the black angel's white lips.

"Get used to it bub! You're gonna lose again!" Devimon slammed his fist into Kabuterimon's stomach. "Death Hand..." The unholy black beam released from his hand, blowing Kabuterimon back as he De-Digivolved into Tentomon. Haruto was in complete shock. Tentomon fell to the ground by Haruto, but the brunette could not look at him. Falling to his knees he slammed his hands onto the ground, grunting in shame. He lost again. AGAIN. None of the other Digidestined could believe it either.

"No...We can't lose...we have to keep fighting! Falcomon!" The blond British young woman called out for. The young bird hear the girl's order and tried to stand up, but couldn't as he fell to the floor.

"Sirena Falcomon is injured don't push him to fight," Bokomon yelled.

"No, she's right!" Falcomon said as he struggled to stand up. "We have to keep fighting, or else we're goners!"

"I'm not gonna give up either!" Agumon said, also trying to get up. The rest of the Digimon followed their lead, and eventually they managed to stay standing, to the surprise of Devimon and Riku. Takara took advantage of this a slipped out of his grasp, allowing her to run back to her friends before Riku could react.

"Your tenacity is admirable, but you're powerless to do anything now." Devimon said. Riku retracted his blade and stood by his partner.

"What, no witty comebacks? No speech about friendship? You must all feel really frozen to your core with fear if you're not going to say anything." Riku said, chuckling darkly.

Takara wasn't going to let it end here. The Digimon may be down, but they're not out. However, as much as she hates to admit it, Riku was right. She did felt frozen after having seen all of their Digimon taken down so easily. The only one who even stood a chance against Devimon was Agunimon, and he was barely holding his breath within that water ball. If only he had a chance to pop that bubble, but how? She looked at the Digimon, then towards the rest of the Chosen, and they too were frozen with fear...wait, frozen? That's it!

'I only have one chance at this. Gotta make it count!' She thought before going into leader mode. "Guys, keep Devimon at bay as long as you can! Agumon, your with me!" She ordered.

"Do yo-you hav-have a plan?" Marine timidly asked.

"Yup, and it involves us getting over to Agunimon asap!"

"Agumon can you help me?!" Takara pleaded. Agumon raised his head and smirked.

"You...can always count on me." The words the little dinosaur said brought a smile to Takara's face. She turned around; facing the large water sphere Agunimon was entrapped in.

'Whatever you're plannin' do it FAST!' Agunimon screamed in his thoughts. He was barely able to hold on. Much more and he would drown! In mere seconds the girl pulled out the DigiMemory and the slot appeared. Placing the card inside the options appeared Takara didn't even have to think about it.

"DIGIMEMORY ACTIVTE! HYOGAMON!" Her voice cried out as the data was installed into Agumon. His eyes changed from pure green to icy blue.

"SPITFIRE BLAST!" A large blue fireball shot out of his mouth and onto the water sphere. This caused Devimon to laugh.

"You got a few marbles knocked out from your beatin'?!" Riku's eyes widen. The change of expression on his partner's face made Devimon watch the sphere, and his jaw dropped. The water was freezing over.

"What good will freezing the water do? All that you've done is turned him into a frozen statue!" The ice cracked and Devimon stopped laughing. Several more cracks developed. 'That's not good...' The ball of frozen water shattered, and out came Agunimon. He landed onto the ground, his knees and hands digging into the rough soil as he panted for air, nearly gasping for it, a couple coughs followed also. Both Digimon and Tamer ran towards the Warrior of Flame. He steadied himself and raised from the ground, his head lowered. His shoulders began moving. His whole body trembled. His breathing wasn't just irregular but came in different beats. "Awww….is the little warrior crying?" Takara immediately know that wasn't it. There was something else that his body posture meant.

Agunimon was laughing.

His head rose instantly and flames covered his entire body.

"CONGRATULATIONS! YOU GAVE ME EVERY RIGHT TO KILL YOU!" The flames erupted from his body and nearly burned the surrounding area. Takara grabbed Agumon and ran away from the angry Warrior. Riku and Devimon now looked a little nervous at seeing the Warrior of Flame snap like that, but quickly regained their composure as Devimon readied himself for battle.

"I think he might have beaten Takara for the "Most hotheaded" of the year award." Riku attempted to joke. "But if you're going at us with your full power, it's only fair we should do the same."

"Now this is what I've been waiting for! Finally I shall prove my might be defeating a Legendary Warrior at his full power!" Devimon laughed manically. He took a battle stance, his claws gathering dark energy.

"If it's a fight you want, then it's a fight you're gonna get! I will make you pay for what you have done here!"

"Then come Agunimon! Show me that power you gained from battling alongside Takuya Kanbara!" Hearing his old partner's name only served to make the flames around Agunimon burn even brighter, his anger reaching its peak. "I'll make you regret ever speaking that name!" Devimon's smug look vanished and was replaced with concern. This was not going to be pretty. He had to think of something, fast!

"Devimon! Grab one of them!" Riku exclaimed. Devimon was confused until he saw the humans nearby. The smirk returned and he flew towards them.

"OH NO YOU DON'T! PYRO TORNADO!" Agunimon launched himself at the fallen angel, but at the last second Devimon vanished. The Digidestined saw this and looked around, same with the Digimon. They had to find him. Kurogasa looked left and right, until he felt a chill down his spine.

"Peek-a-boo, I see you!" He heard Devimon's voice right behind him. The brown haired young man was planning on turning around but Devimon placed a finger on his neck, effectively placing Kurogasa unconscious. Gabumon freaked and was prepared to fight but was slapped away in an instant.

"Kurogasa! Let him go coward!" Takara shouted at the demon.

"Oh my, your very brave to talk to me like that giving the position your in right now." Devimon placed his claw in front of Kurogasa's face before looking at Agunimon. "Now I suggest cooling down flamebrain, or would you rather prefer to be one Digidestined less?" The warrior of Flame's body trembled incredibly, but the flames died out. He was reluctant to do so, but one wrong move would cost Kurogasa's life. He wasn't going to allow it, and he would become Lobomon's punching bag should anything happen to the teenager.

"Why are you doing this?" He asked Riku.

"For my own Amusement. So then, why don't we play a game?" Riku suggested, catching everyone off guard.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THE MATTER WITH YOU!?" Takara screamed in fury.

"WHY WOULD WE PLAY WITH A DUFF LIKE YOU!?" Sirena vented.

"For one, it will save this guy's life. So then?" It took all of Takara's willpower to not just run up to Riku and punch him straight in the face, but she knew doing that would put Kurogasa at risk.

Everyone, Agunimon included, were on the verge of submitting to Riku's proposal, until they heard a voice from behind Devimon.

"Lobo Kendo!" Lobomon appeared from behind Devimon and slashed away at his arm. This forced the fallen angel to grab it on reflex, giving Lobomon enough time to grab Kurogasa. Riku gritted his teeth until he looked down.

Lobomon dropped Kurogasa next to Gabumon, who ran up to the Tamer to embrace him, despite Gabumon's fur being extremely warm Kurogasa returned the gesture. Agunimon walked up to his fellow warrior. "Always in the nick of time!" I'm used to always having to save the day at the last second." Lobomon said. Loweemon then appeared behind the group, with an army of Flarerizamon.

Devimon blinked at the oncoming army. "Uh Riku...I gotta admit. I don't think I can take Lion boy over there..." He then looked at his hand and saw it burning. Placing his hand over it, he tried his best to stabilize his breathing. "And with what Lobomon did to my arm, I'm afraid that should this battle persist any longer, then you might need a new partner soon."

Riku nodded. "Yeah. But at least let me keep a souvenir of our time." As Kurogasa was regaining his composure he reached into his right pocket, but felt nothing. His eyes widen and checked his other pocket. Now he was panicking.

"Kurogasa?"

"YO!" Everyone turned to Riku, and he was holding Kurogasa's D-Analyzer!

"Give that back!" Takara ordered, but Riku laughed.

"No can do spitfire!" He replied as he threw the device up in the air a few times, reaching into his pocket to pull out a small, black ball. Throwing it to the ground, the entire area was covered in a bright flash. A few choice words were said by Takara and the group as the light blinded them. Eventually the light died down and everyone opened their eyes. Riku and Devimon were gone.

"This couldn't possibly get any worse..." Agunimon whined.

"Okay seriously what is going on!? We have an enemy with a Digivice, a Digimon partner, and Agunimon still hasn't told the others what happened to us! I guess i can understand it was a tough time. If your curious then keep on reading ReImage: DIgimon World!" - Zoe Orimoto
