No Name
By Dark Angel
I so do not own Digimon. I just own the poor idea, Dozu. I do hope you like the story and plot!
With the children hostage, Reiko, Yukiko, and Tentomon are most likely being controlled to keep track of the children. This could become a problem if we can't get to the children fast enough. They must be scared as the oldest is only six years old. I lead them to where I know Cody is waiting to attack us with Armadillomon.
We don't say a word because we know nothing we say will prepare us to fight against our friends or family. The four of us had been hoping for one of our family members to be the closest to us but I don't think that will happen until we are closer to the evil Digimon behind all of this.
I can see Cody after a couple hours walk and I am surprised that Armadillomon is not changed into his Ultimate form. We stop a few feet from Cody and Armadillomon and wait to see what is going to happen next.
"Armadillomon, our orders are to kill the Crest of Life Holder. Kill anyone in our way" speaks Cody holding out his hand and Armadillomon charges at me.
"Agumon hold Armadillomon off while I try to see if I can't get Cody out from the spell he is in," I state watching as Agumon intercepts Armadillomon.
"Gabumon, help Agumon" speaks Matt staying close to me.
"Wormon help out as well," commands Ken.
"Come on Cody, you don't want to kill me, I'm your friend, Tai. Remember, we are the Digidestined children you can't kill me off" I say not moving from where I am because I don't trust that Cody won't attack me himself.
You must touch his forehead and call forth his Crest to release him from the mind control. He will then be able to use his Crest to release Armadillomon from the mind control. You must do this will all who are being controlled.
Bossy voice is back, but I might as well try to see if what it says is true. I wonder if this is my new power. I walk forwards, moving around the four Digimon fighting, hoping that Agumon, Gabumon, and Wormon, will hold Armadillomon off just long enough for me to free his trainer. I continue my walk and stand right in front of Cody. His hands come up and wrap themselves around my neck, trying to choke me.
I move one of my hands up to his forehead and concentrate on his two Crests as Matt pries Cody's hands from my neck. Crest of Knowledge and Crest of Reliability, which belong to Cody. Release Cody from that which forces him to do that he does not want to do. I feel a pulse coming from deep within Cody and I push the pulse straight for his forehead to release him from the mind control.
I pull back as the pulsing stops at the center of Cody's forehead. Taking a step back I watch as Cody falls to his knees, a hand coming up to touch his forehead as if in pain. Armadillomon stops fighting our Digimon and drops to the ground in pain. We watch as Cody and Armadillomon fight off what is left of the mind control.
I know we can't do anything right now but have faith in Cody and Armadillomon. Cody lifts up his head and stares right at us before he gets up on his feet and walks over to Armadillomon. He kneels in front of his Digimon and uses his crests powers to help Armadillomon free.
"Thanks guys, I figured we would have to work for him for the rest of our life" speaks Cody standing up as Armadillomon goes back to normal.
"Not a problem" smiles Izzy.
"We came as soon as we could" I say before I close my eyes to find our next friend.
"Who is he?" I hear Cody ask the others.
"I can't believe you don't recognize Tai" I hear Matt say.
"He is different but not that different. He's half-digimon now. It turns out that he is the Crest of Life Holder," remarks Ken.
"All our friends have been ordered the same thing; kill the Crest of Life Holder. They are at different places a couple hours walk away from each other. I don't know who is going to be next" speaks Cody. "Our children are too young to be taken over with mind control. I know he is going to use our children as an advantage against Tai."
"Don't worry too much about it. Tai won't let anything happen to the kids" speaks Ian as if he truly believes I will save everyone from this evil Digimon.
I tune out whatever they talk about after that and concentrate on the next Crest that is a few hours away from us. It seems that the next Crest is Mimi of Sincerity. It is the only one I feel. It is not Yolie for she would have love as well. I open my eyes and turn toward our next destination.
"Mimi is a couple hours away from us," I state coming to look at Matt. "Sorry everyone, I know how much we each want the ones we love to be next."
"It's fine, they are our friends, let's get moving" speaks Izzy.
We head out together, I know how much each wants their family back, but we have to stay calm and understand that we will find them. Of course, we will have to be careful with Mimi. She is pregnant. I wonder if we can send her home after we free her. I'll have to ask after we free her.
As we move through the desert of the Digital World, I am beginning to wonder why this evil wants to kill me. I don't believe I did anything wrong but perhaps this evil doesn't care much about who did what, just who is trying to stop him. I growl as we come up to a small tent. Figures Mimi would try to stay cool even under mind control.
The flat comes up and Mimi and Palmon come out of the tent. "Finally, I have been waiting forever for you guys to get here. I don't think I can wait much longer. Someone take me back to the Real World" speaks Mimi hands on her hips.
"Mimi are you alright, you're not under mind control are you?" I ask her not moving from my spot.
"He tried to control me but once he left me here, I got free form the control and freed Palmon and have been waiting forever. I am perfectly fine Tai" she huffs. "I mean, just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean I can't take care of myself."
"You're not going to harm Tai are you?" asks Izzy.
"No, by the way I like the new look on you Tai" smiles Mimi sitting down.
"She's being controlled" speaks Ken stepping forward.
"I am not," grumbles Mimi.
"How did you know about Tai?" asks Cody.
"I know Tai, I might not have seen him like this before, but not much has changed and I would know him anywhere. I've kept in touch with Tai, I know him" huffs Mimi while I start to laugh. "Stop laughing at me."
"I'm sorry, but it's funny that they think one thing and it's the opposite," I say shaking my head. "Ken, send Mimi, Palmon, Cody, and Armadillomon back to the Real World."
"Alright, I will" nods Ken as he opens a portal. "Have a safe trip home. It'll open at Matt's place."
"Wait, I want to help" speaks up Cody.
"I know you do, but you can't. You're wife and children will be sent to you when we free them. You're tired and can't fight anymore. It's best to go home and wait. Trust us to save everyone" I state knowing that Cody understands but can't help but want to fight to save his family.
"I know" he sighs and moves through the portal.
Mimi smiles as she takes Palmon with her "Get my husband back."
Armadillomon is the last one to go. I watch as the portal closes and I sit down in the tent. We might as well camp out here, as nighttime is upon us and we won't be able to do much in the dark. Ken, Matt, and Izzy follow me. Agumon, Wormon, and Gabumon decide which one is going to stand guard for the first shift. I close my eyes and let Matt pull me closer to him for the night.
I wake up to some screaming going on. I run out of the tent to find…
