Rise of the Mechanical Digimon

Note: This epilogue is mostly a bunch of weddings. Just thought you should know in advance.

And with all said and done, peace seemed to return. Everything became back in order as the mech battles had finally come to a close. After almost three months, Neil and Mato were finally going to get married, his family arriving just in time for it.

However, before that, the guys at the workplace were holding Neil a bachelor party as Neil looked around at the guys drinking sighing, "Why did you bring me to a bar? You know I don't drink!"

Alejandro chuckled a bit, slugging Neil on the shoulder and replying, "This is one of those rare times where you won't have a wife to worry about anymore. A bar is just the place to spend it."

All the while, Mato was being given a bridal shower, Midori saying, "I hope Alejandro doesn't drink too much. Drunk guys are known to forget their moral values," then pulled out a golden dress asking, "So what do you think, Mato? Is it too much?"

Mato let down a sweat drop, laughing nervously and replied, "I personally think white is better," Neku suddenly entering despite the fact that this was a party for girls.

He simply handed Mato a bouquet of flowers, his cheeks pink as he said, "Congratulations on the marriage," Mato beaming and taking the flowers while saying, "They're so pretty. Thanks, Neku-Chan."

Suddenly, the other girls stared as Jasmine asked, "Who let a boy into the bridal shower?" Midori shrugging saying, "He just walked in. I felt no need stopping him."

Kotaha giggled and replied, "He cares about Mato, nothing wrong with that."

"Exactly," Midori replied, "Besides, we let a man shower with us on a regular basis now. This is nothing."

At that moment, Yomaki entered with 20 six packs, four of the cans open and emptied as she asked, "Anyone want beer? Maybe we can get Mato wasted and make her have lesbian sex with me," letting out a hiccup before laughing at Kotaha's face saying, "Hello, darling. How ya doin today?"

Kotaha had her hand over the baby bump, the child was due in about five weeks so she smiled a bit before replying, "Well, I have been holding strong. Though it seems happy to be at a party and is kicking really hard."

"Here, have a beer!" Yomaki replied with a grin before laughing and saying, "I have no idea what's so funny, but... it's just so funny!" Midori whistling and saying, "Okay, now I see why those four cans are empty."

Kotaha smiled, staying away from the beverage when Megumi entered, a look of annoyance on her face as she groaned, "There you are, Yomaki! Why don't you go upstairs and watch the moon and the stars, then maybe we can find a movie for you to watch," taking the woman's hand and leading her upstairs while mouthing an apology to everyone.

Yomaki laughed some more saying, "That sounds lovely. Then maybe afterwards, we can make out..." Megumi sighing, "You know full well I have a boyfriend now."

Soon enough, it was time as Neil showed up in his nicest suit, his family wishing him the best as Midori approached him with Alejandro by her side saying, "Wow, you look dashing. I almost can't recognize you with that smart and sophisticated look," Neil lowering his eyelids.

Mato squealed excitedly, wearing a fancy white dress as she embraced Neil like a teddy bear squeaking, "He's so handsome!"

Neil's face was beet red as he said, "And you look more adorable than ever before," his eyes going wide from the pressure, Neku standing to the side wearing a loose necktie.

Neil smiled and said, "This is truly the happiest moment of my life," Midori asking, "What about your wedding kiss?" Neil remarking, "That hasn't happened yet."

Beat noticed a piece of paper on the floor and said, "Hm? What's this? Maybe somebody dropped it. . ." picking up the paper. Mato and Neku went in for a closer look at the piece. They gasped when they saw it for a few seconds, and then they broke into hysterics. Well, Neku tried to hold back his laugh while Mato and Beat laughed like hyenas, banging on the floor.

Megumi and Kotaha were giggling slowly and quietly while Alejandro was in stitches. Whatever was causing this much laughter had to have been embarrassing.

Neil blinked and asked, "Wait, what is that?" Midori looking at it and breaking out into hysterics, Neil's eyes wide as he asked, "Wait, what is this? I wanna see!"

Mato held her stomach, showing him the paper. Neil's eyes went wide as his jaw dropped, his face turning red as he yelled, "Oh my god! Where did this come from!"

Mato snickered as Neil sighed, flipping the picture over and noticing a message on the back, whispering the words, "Treat Mato well and make sure she doesn't divorce you or else I'll let the whole world see this, sincerely, Miss Yomaki," a picture of a heart next to Yomaki's name as the man's eyelids narrowed, Neil stuffing the paper into his pocket and saying, "She took a picture of that?" *

Neil simply gulped and put on a serious expression saying in a forced British accent, "I shall not stand for this mockery! If you excuse me, I have a wedding to prepare for!" walking into the building as Midori sniffed, "Oh, god, this is too good."

Alejandro wiped a tear and said, "That was too good, but I do feel bad about disgracing him on his big day," Megumi grinning wickedly and replying, "This could make for good blackmail, though."

"Hey, guys, I think Neil's alright with it," Midori said, "Come on, that fake accent of his couldn't have been serious."

And sure enough, Neil was laughing a little after entering the church. Of course, it was only a matter of time until he was to stand on stage with the girl of his dreams.

Soon enough, everyone was gathered around as the priest called Neil to the stand, the man walking down the aisle and doing his best to look as professional as possible, everyone giving him thumbs up as he approached the podium, the priest saying, "Now will the bride proceed forward?" Mato walking gracefully toward the stage. Sure, Neil had seen her in her dress earlier, but his heart was still racing, his eyes wide with amazement.

With that, the priest gave a speech before asking, "Do you, Neil, take Mato to be your lawfully wedded wife to love and cherish until death do you part?" Neil nodding and saying, "I do," the priest then asking, "Mato, do you take Neil to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Mato nodding and replying, "I do."

"By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you man and wife," the priest said, "You may kiss the bride."

With that, Neil looked Mato deep in the eyes before placing his lips softly against hers. Alejandro watched with a big grin as Kotaha and Megumi let down tears. Neku and Beat, meanwhile, applauded loudly in the back row.

With that, the bouquet was thrown as who should catch it but Midori, her eyes wide open. With that, Neil and Mato headed into a limo outside as soon enough, the two were off on their honeymoon with all expenses paid by the company.

After the wedding, Yomaki went into the storage area where all the mechs were and sighed, "Well, you fulfilled your purposes. I guess this is it unless some other terrorist group decides to attack us."

A couple of weeks after Neil and Mato's wedding, everyone was going about work as Yomaki watched the two newly-weds saying, "I thought their marriage was gonna screw up productivity, but Neil's working better than ever before."

Meanwhile, Midori was moving stage with Alejandro as she looked at Neil and Mato and said, "It's a good thing tomorrow is our day off, Alejandro, because I was thinking maybe we could go out."

Alejandro simply nodded, treating it like any other date offer. However, he knew this was the best thing she could have suggested as Alejandro had a big plan thought up. He had recently bought the most expensive diamond ring he could afford and knew what to do with it.

The following day, Midori and Alejandro went to a fancy restaurant as Midori asked, "Do I know how to pick the spots or what?" a waiter handing a large grilled squid to a customer.

They enjoyed one-another's company for a while, though after they had finished their meals Alejandro took Midori's hands in his own, stating, "Midori, my dearest. I have something to ask you," the woman nodding and replying, "I'm all ears."

He slowly got up from his seat, bending down on one knee and saying, "Midori, I have loved you so much since the day we met. You have stolen my heart and it is an honour to have you as my girlfriend. Though, I would adore to have you as mine for the rest of my life. I would love if we could have a small family of our own. With all that, Midori, will you marry me?"

Midori immediately held Alejandro in a tight embrace exclaiming, "YES, OF COURSE!" all the other customers saying, "Awwwww," the waiters and head chef letting down tears of joy.

The man held her close, whispering in her ears, "You have made me the happiest man on Earth," Midori whispering back, "And you've made me the happiest woman," kissing the man's neck before leaving a cheque on the dining table, the couple heading out of the restaurant.

The day work started up again, Neil, Mato, Midori, Alejandro and Neku had all been picked for a single task as Midori smiled at the others and said, "Hey, Alejandro has something to tell you all," Neil interested.

Alejandro wasn't nearly as embarrassed as he was when telling of their relationship this time around as he said, "Last night, I proposed to my dear Midori and we'll be married soon."

Neil's eyes sparkled as he said, "That's great! You'll be happy, I can guarantee that now that I'm a husband," kissing Mato on the cheek as Mato giggled, "Yeah, being a wife is awesome!" planting a big kiss on Neil's lips.

Midori nodded and said, "Still, I don't think we're nearly as cute as you two."

Later that day, everyone was having a shower as the girls all stared at Neil and Mato with their eyes sparkling, Neil sighing and turning to his dearly beloved, then back to them asking, "Will you stop looking at us like that if we give you what you want?" Midori nodding and saying, "Yes, just one quick squeeze and we'll never bother you again," Neil sighing, "Mato, what do you think?"

Mato blushed brightly and replied, "Well, okay, but not too hard."

With that, Neil quickly placed his hand against Mato's breast, making sure everyone was watching and giving it a quick, light squeeze saying, "There, you got what you wanted, now shut up," Midori smiling and saying, "We'll never bother you about it again," Neil sighing, "I am so sorry you had to deal with that, darling."

"Aw, don't worry about it, sugar-lips!" Mato replied, giving Neil a big hug.

"Sugar lips?" Neil asked, blinking before shrugging and patting his wife on the back, the girls all going, "Awwwwwwwwww," Neil asking, "Do you have anything better to do?"

Soon enough, it was Midori and Alejandro's wedding day as Yae had been temporarily let out of prison to attend, the girl saying, "Thank you so much for bailing me out, sis," Midori replying, "Well, it's not like you knew that you were doing the wrong thing."

Alejandro was nervous when he arrived, wearing a fancy tuxedo. He hoped he didn't look like a dork in Midori's eyes. After all, he'd never dressed like this before.

Seeing the groom standing there, Midori's eyes went wide as she smirked and said, "Well, don't you look handsome?" Alejandro beaming brightly.

"Isn't this sweet?" Neku asked, then sighed, "It's never gonna happen to me," Mato giving the man a noogie and remarking, "It might someday."

"Yeah, I remember our wedding like it was just a couple of months ago," Neil said with a smile, then blinked saying, "Oh, wait, it was a couple of months ago," then gave Mato a come-from-behind hug rubbing her belly saying, "Ah, feels like a healthy one in there."

"I still can't believe you chose to go through with your three children dream so early," Midori stated, "It won't be long until your next two, eh?"

Neil laughed and said, "Hey, let's not rush things too much here."

At that moment, Yomaki showed up and said, "Well, you look as handsome as can be, Alibabahadmagama," Alejandro narrowing his eyelids and remarking, "It's Alejandro."

"That's what I said, Allen," the woman replied as Midori sighed, "You are so cruel sometimes," Yomaki's eyes sparkling as she asked, "Really?"

"It's your cruelty that entertains others," Alejandro stated as Mato giggled, "Well, that is one of her good points."

With that, everyone was gathered around as the priest called up Alejandro, the man approaching the stand with a nervous grin on his face. The priest then called up Midori, the woman approaching with a smile on her face, Yae's eyes sparkling when she saw how pretty her sister looked.

As Midori walked up on stage, the priest asked, "Do you, Alejandro, take Midori to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

Alejandro didn't have to think twice before replying, "I do," as Midori was asked same in which she smiled and said, "Of course I do," the priest making their marriage official as Midori wrapped an arm around Alejandro, spinning around as she held onto him, the man tilted back a bit as the woman planted an elegant, graceful kiss on him.

As the years went by, things were perfect. Kotaha eventually had her baby, a handsome young boy named Vino. Almost a year later, Neil and Mato had their first child, a baby girl of their own to be exact, the girl given the name Mina. Unfortunately, one proved too much to handle and Neil decided to go back on his three children dream. Alejandro and Midori also had a couple of children of their own, a daughter and a son named Nathaniel and Jenna.

One day, the group met up for a picnic as Neil waved at the others, Kotaha waving back as Luchi said, "Hey there, man, how's life?" Neil replying, "Everyday is a ray of sunshine with Mato around," the woman blushing wildly and replying, "You are so sappy, Neil-Chan!" kissing his cheek while cradling Mina.

Alejandro and Midori also arrived with their children in a stroller, Nathaniel stealing Jenna rattle, the baby girl slapping him hard in the face and taking it back, sticking out her tongue as Midori grinned, cooing, "That's my good little girl! Show him that girls are tougher than guys!" Alejandro staring at her as she sighed, "Come on, you know you're no match for me," Alejandro sighing, "Yes..."

Speaking of which, Yomaki was looking at the mechs with Neku by her side saying, "Now all they can do is collect dust... such a shame, but at least we'll never have to use them for combat purposes again."

Neku nodded and replied, "Yeah, but at least we can still see them every now and then," a woman's voice suddenly calling out, "Neku!" the man sighing, "Alright, I'm coming, Shiki."

Yomaki grinned and said, "Oh, so you finally got yourself someone, eh? I thought you were too sophisticated for that," Neku blushing and retorting, "Shut up! I just can't get away from her is all! She keeps finding me!"

"Right..." Yomaki replied with a laugh, then shouted, "Hey, Megumi, I have a job for you!" the mechanic turning to her and asking, "Yeah, what is it?"

Yomaki let out a sigh and said, "I want you to make sure no one ever steals these mechs. I don't care what you do, make a super-powered lock or something, just make it happen."

Megumi smiled, giving her boss and army salute before exclaiming, "You'd better believe I'll do it, but I'll make it even stronger than you could ever imagine!" Yomaki sighing, "Just make the damn lock, already."

All in all, things had certainly turned out for the best. Everyone was living a happy life, Yae was released from prison and starting anew while Morrigan, Nathan, Jason and Zet all had Aku's former company torn down in exchange for a toy factory where they used the metal from the mechs to make action figures. And thus our story comes to a close.

The end.
