Digimon Adventure X: Episode 12-Digi Trouble in Little Tokyo
With Ami back from freeing Metal City, the DigiDestined were all together and ready more than ever to defeat the Digimon Empress and free their parents from her clutches. It was a typical Friday afternoon in the Digital World with the DigiDestined searching around for the last remaining Digi-Eggs. The group is currently following the signal of two Digi-Eggs to a shogun style city.
"This place is so cool!" Daichi exclaimed as the team walked into the city, "It's like a mini Tokyo right here in the Digital World."
Everyone else in the group was either groaning or shaking their heads at their fearless goggle-head leader. As they walked both Tomi and Karu looked at each other having the same thought on the city, there were no Digimon in the streets. Everyone else besides Daichi seemed to have picked up on this fact as well.
"I wonder if everyone is hiding from the Digimon Empress somewhere else." Patamon commented from on top of Tomi's white bucket cap.
"It does seem strange that all the Digimon living in this city aren't in the streets right now." Gatomon added as her ears perked up.
Suddenly a shower of small kunai and shrunken came flying at them!
"Run!" Sam yelled as he pulled his little brother out of the way of a few of the weapons.
The team ran out of the weapons to find themselves surrounded by a group of controlled Kougamon and Ninjamon.
"Intruders!" They yelled at the DigiDestined.
"Man why is it always like this!" Keiji whined as the team got ready to fight.
"We've got this covered! Digi-Armor Energize!" Daichi yelled.
"Right behind you! Digi-Armor Energize!" Taka, Hotaru, and Leiko yelled as they nodded to each other.
"Digi-Armor Energize!" Karu and Tomi then yelled together.
"Ready Gabumon?" Kiba asked his Digimon.
"Mm-Hm." Gabumon nodded his head.
"Alright! Digi-Armor Energize!" Kiba yelled releasing his Digi-Egg.
"Are we ready to join them, Ami?" Tentomon asked
"Yeah, Digi-Armor Energize!" Ami yelled as she nodded her head.
"Veemon Armor Digivolve to Flamedramon! The Fire of Courage!"
"Agumon Armor Digivolve to Firedramon! The Flames of Confidence!"
"Biyomon Armor Digivolve to Kyuukanmon! The Flight of Love!"
"Armadillomon Armor Digivolve to Ketsumon! The Power of Determination!"
"Patamon Armor Digivolve to Pegasusmon! Flying Hope!"
"Gatomon Armor Digivolve to Nefertimon! The Angel of Light!"
"Gabumon Armor Digivolve to KitaKitsunemon! The Cry of Friendship!"
"Tentomon Armor Digivolve to Jikochuumon! The Buzz of Knowledge!"
"Alright, we'll stay her with our Digimon while the rest of you guys go after the Digi-Eggs here!" Daichi told the rest of the group who hadn't Armor Digivolved.
"Yeah good luck!" They yelled as they ran off towards the signal of the Digi-Eggs.
"Let's show these ninjas what we are made of!" Flamedramon yelled as he led the other Armor Digimon into battle. "Flame Fist!"
"Right behind ya Flamedramon!" Firedramon yelled as he follow suit, "Fire Punch!"
"Let's do this!" Ketsumon yelled at the remaining Armor Digimon, "Flash Charge!"
"Ice Tail Spears!" KitaKitsunemon attacked.
"Let's take to the sky for an aerial attack!" Pegasusmon told the other winged Digimon. "Star Shower!"
"Talon Drive!" Kyuukanmon attacked.
"Cat's Eye Beam!" "Gambit Dance!" Jikochuumon joined the battle with Nefertimon.
Meanwhile, the other DigiDestineds were on their way towards the Digi-Eggs fighting their way through a group of Kotemon.
"We've got to go!" Sam yelled as his Wormmon head-butted another Kotemon away from the group.
"We know, Bro!" Kuori yelled back at him. "Everyone try to push forward!"
"You've got it Kuori! Feather Strike!" Kuori's Hawkmon attacked.
"Sticky thread!" The Wormmons attacked.
"Poison Ivy!"
"Fin Cutter!"
The Digimon attacked giving them an opening in the controlled Kotemon. They ran as fast as they could through the opening unaware of the two different Digimon watching them. At the end of the opening, Sam cut a sharp right into an ally way. Kuori, Keiji, and Milo follow Sam. They stopped as the controlled Kotemon walked passed their ally way.
"That was too close for comfort." Keiji pointed out with his Gomamon shaking his head.
"Nah we could have taken them, Keiji!" Gomamon disagreed.
Wormmon looked up at his partner, "Sam we have a problem."
Sam looked down at his Wormmon, "What's up Wormmon?"
Suddenly Milo realized that his sister and Shino where missing, "Guys where's Mika and Shino?"
"Oh no! Now what?!" Kuori gasped as a small smoke bomb flew towards them.
They started coughing as the smoke bomb exploded. The smoke settled revealing a note tied to a kunai. Milo reached down and untied the note. He opened up the note.
"What does it say?" Sam asked.
Milo sighed as he began to read the note, "It says…We have captured the two youngest of your team, DigiDestined. We will give them over to the Digimon Empress unless you take our challenge. We request a one-on-one showdown with Palmon and Hawkmon's Armor Digivolution forms. Meet us at the signal of the Digi-Eggs for the showdown. If you do not take our challenge then we will turn the two DigiDestined, their Digimon, and the Digi-Eggs over to the Empress for the release of the city."
"Say what?!" Kuori yelled in response to the note. "That note was left by non controlled Digimon?!"
"Seems that way sis." Sam added, "So in order to get Mika and Shino back it looks like you and Milo are headed off towards the Digi-Eggs while Keiji and I regroup with the others."
"Yeah I guess you're right." Kuori sighed.
Kuori and Milo found two bird-like Digimon standing in front of Mika and Shino in the city's courtyard. One looked like an armored raven with two gold swords while the other one looked like a ninja clad roadrunner.
"Ah, it's good to see you have accepted our challenge." The raven Digimon commented.
"Yeah, it's not like we can let the Digimon Empress win." Milo answered the raven Digimon's comment. "Who are you anyway?"
"Ah, I am Karatenmon and this is Peckmon." The raven Digimon answered. "Now shall we begin?"
"Uh, what are we suppose to do?" Kuori asked.
"Oh that's right, we will go one-on-one in battle. The first one to bring the other one to their knees wins and gets to keep the younger DigiDestined. Now let's go." Peckmon answered her question.
"Okay ladies first." Milo pushed Kuori forward.
"Hey this isn't fair your Digimon is a girl!" Kuori yelled at him. "Okay, fine I'll go first. I'm fighting for Shino and his Wormmon, ok?"
"Then I will be your challenger now…" The two Digimon stepped aside revealing the two Digi-Eggs. "Please choose your Digi-Egg."
Kuori walked over to the Digi-Eggs and went for the Digi-Egg of Compassion, knowing that she had the crest tag of Compassion. She tried to lift the Digi-Egg up off of its stand, but it wouldn't budge!
"Hey what gives?" Kuori huffed as she struggled to make the Digi-Egg move, "It's not moving!"
Milo questioned the Digi-Egg, "Kuori try the other Digi-Egg! Maybe Gennai got ours mixed up and you have the Digi-Egg of Sincerity while I have the Digi-Egg of Compassion."
Kuori rolled her eyes at his idea, "You think a guy like Gennai is going to get our crests confused and then switch our Digi-Eggs?"
"Actually, Kuori I wouldn't put it passed the old man to do something like that." Hawkmon pointed out.
Kuori sighed as she released the Digi-Egg of Compassion, "Oh alright. I'll give the Digi-Egg of Sincerity a try."
Kuori gave the other Digi-Egg a little tug and to her surprise it came up off of the stand into her hands.
Peckmon smiled, "Finally we can start our challenge."
"Uh yeah." Kuori added in a slight daze as a dragon-like Digimon appeared in the sky above them.
"I'm sorry to interrupt your little showdown, but Karatenmon and Peckmon now belong to me!" The group looked up to find the Digimon Empress standing on top of her Airdramon.
With a wave of her hand, the Digimon Empress released two of her spirals of darkness capturing Karatenmon and Peckmon! Kuori, Mika, and Shino gasped as the two warrior bird Digimon's eyes became red as they lost to the power of the spirals of darkness. Milo on the other hand made a dash for the Digi-Egg of Compassion.
"Kuori, Release your Digi-Egg!" Milo yelled at her as Karatenmon and Peckmon prepared to attack them.
"Oh shoot! Uh, Digi-Armor Energize!" Kuori yelled as Milo grabbed the other Digi-Egg.
"Hawkmon Armor Digivolve to Shurimon, the Samurai of Sincerity!"
Hawkmon transformed into a masked leaf ninja-like Digimon with vines as his arms and legs with small shuriken for his hands and feet. Two large leaves coved his shoulders and on his back sat a large shuriken.
"Now it's our turn, Palmon!" Milo yelled as he held up the Digi-Egg of Compassion, "Digi-Armor Energize!"
"Palmon Armor Digivolve to Kunoichimon, the Ninja of Compassion!"
Palmon Digivolved to a beautiful human like Digimon with a purple shirt that seemed to be held on with her green armor and a green skirt that matched her armor with a pair of purple shorts underneath the skirt. Flower-like gloves covered her arms and hands while a pair of dark green boots covered her lower legs and feet. Her pale green hair was pulled back in a braid that had a vine of flowers woven into the braid.
"Let's tango boys!" Kunoichimon teased the two controlled bird Digimon as she prepared to attack, "Shall we finish this little showdown, Shurimon?"
"Let's." Shurimon answered as he too prepared to attack. "Double Star!"
"Crimson Petal Dance!" Kunoichimon released her attack freeing Karatenmon and Peckmon. "Oh so sorry Empress, better luck next time."
The Digimon Empress scowled at the two new Armor Digimon, "This is just a small victory for you DigiDestined. Next time we meet you won't be so lucky!"
Milo and Kuori watched as the Empress flew off into the distance.
