(Kari's voice) Previously we found ourselves back in a time when bending was still alive and we fought these people. We were told they were planning to start a war, but we can't afford to ruin the fabric of time. Our goal is to find a way back into our time and there might be something in the south pole.
Chapter 4: Chasing
Exveemon, Birdramon, and Nefertimon were flying over a forest carrying Davis and the others as they flew to the south pole.
"Are we there yet?" Ross complained.
"Do you see us flying over the ocean?" Exveemon said.
"How do we even know if we're heading in the right direction?" Gotsumon said.
"My compass says that we are since we're flying south." Armis said as he held up a compass.
"And since the place we're going is the south pole then south it is." Tai said.
"Yeah, but I wish Wormmon and Ken were here so we can get there faster as Imperialdramon." Exveemon said.
"Relax Exveemon enjoy the scenery." Nefertimon said.
"Speaking of scenery the sun is starting to set." Cody said.
"Yeah it could take us days before we get to the south pole. We might as well find a place to camp." Sora said and they all landed.
"How are we going to camp out? We don't have any sleeping bags or a tent." Ross said.
"Leave the tent to me." Cody said as he used his earth bending and formed a tent big enough for all of them.
"I got some fire wood." Armis said as he and Agumon carried some wood in their arms and set them down. Gotsumon launched some rocks around the wood.
"Now here's your lighter." Agumon said as he launched a flame. They all gathered around the fire and were having dinner from food they found around the woods.
"How are the berries kids?" Armis said.
"I be better off with a burger." Tai said.
"Well until we can figure out how to get back to our time this is practically all we're going to have." Kari said with her arm around Davis' arm.
"Let's just hope there is something in the south pole that can help us." Cody said.
"Alright kids better turn in." Armis said as they all went under the tent. They were all fast asleep, but Cody shot himself straight up as he felt something in the ground.
"Everyone wake up!" Cody shouted and that had them all wake up that Tai even banged his head against the rock.
"What the heck are you screaming about?" Tai said.
"Cody what is it?" Armadillomon said as Cody had his hands on the ground.
"It feels like a tank or something is coming out way." Cody said. He brought the rocks under the ground and they all saw birds flying away as if something scared them.
"Something is coming our way." Sora said.
"Whatever it is it's big and coming fast." Cody said.
"Can the digimon digivolve and get us out of here?" Ross said.
"We just ate so I think we have the energy." Biyomon said. They digivolved and flew off and they all some sort of metal machine on the ground.
"What is that thing?" Tai said.
"I've never seen anything like it." Armis said. Then it started launching chains at them, but they moved out of the way.
"I don't know what it is, but I don't think I want to find out." Davis said.
"Don't worry we'll lose it." Nefertimon said as they flew off. They kept on flying until they reached a mountain and rested on a cliff. "It might be best to sleep here."
"You might be right, whatever that thing was it's clear it's after us." Cody said.
"But who could be in that thing that is after us?" Armadillomon said. When Cody took a seat and had his hands on the ground he felt something.
"That thing is back." Cody said.
"What, already?" Tai said.
"It's coming this way." Cody said.
"I'll say." Aquamon said as he pointed out and they saw the machine pull up to them.
"Maybe we should go." Kari said.
"Hold up let's find out who they are first." Sora said. The door opened up and revealed to be Flint, Rogrif, and Aquaro on reptile creatures the size of horses.
"It's those three from before!" Tai said.
"So they are in this time." Ross said. All three of them ran up to them with Flint launching flames and Ron had rocks launched at them, but Sora launched a tornado and Cody rose the cliff's edge and shielded them.
"Come on let's go." Ross said.
"We can take these guys." Davis said.
"Not now Davis, I don't have any water to bend and we're not at full strength since they gave us a wake up call." Ross said. They got back on their digimon and flew off. As they flew they tried as best as they could to get far away.
"How did those three knew where we were?" Sora said.
"I don't know, but we better make sure we lose them." Tai said.
"Can we land soon, I'm so sleepy." Exveemon said and it looked like him, Birdramon, and Nefertimon were trying to stay awake.
"We can't keep flying. We need to find a place to rest." Birdramon said.
"Yeah I need some sleepy time." Agumon said as he yawned and fell asleep.
"I don't think we have much time to sleep." Kari said as the sun started to rise.
"It might take them awhile to get past that mountain. I think we can land and get some rest." Armis said.
"You think so, then look." Tai said as they saw the same machine.
"How did they get here so fast?" Ross said.
"We got to find some way to lose them. I think Exveemon and the others are starting to slow down." Gotsumon said. the machine started launching chains, but Tai and Davis shot flames that heated the chains up. When they touched the digimon it gave them a jump and flew off faster. When they were safe enough away the digimon crashed down.
"We need to work on those emergency landings." Exveemon said.
"We can't rest for long. It's only a matter of time before they show up again." Cody said.
"Cody's right. How are they able to find us?" Armis said.
"I don't know, but I have an idea." Davis said as he picked some fruit from some bushes and gave them to the digimon. "I think those three might be after me. I'll go on foot to by you guys some time to get away."
"How do you know if they'll follow?" Exveemon said.
"I'll leave a trail." Davis said.
"Davis you're going to take them alone?" Ross said.
"If you guys don't get attack then come after me in like 10 minutes." Davis said.
"Alright, but be careful." Kari said as she gave him a peck. The digimon flew off and Davis used his fire bending leaving a trail as he walked. Behind the trees was Valgo. When the three arrived they spotted the trail.
"Our little messenger said that the Avatar went on his own." Flint said.
"I've noticed, it's obvious he's leading us into a trap." Ron said standing over the trail Davis left.
"Wait look up there." Aquaro said as they saw the tops of trees knocked off. It was caused by the digimon when they flew off.
"We can't let any of those kids go. They could ruin everything." Flint said. "You two head that way and keep your eyes open for those creatures. I'll deal with the Avatar."
…..
The Others
The digimon continued to fly away, but Kari kept looking back hoping that Davis was okay.
"I'm sure Davis is fine Kari." Sora said knowing what she was thinking.
"In a while we can go meet up with him." Ross said.
"Uh oh." Tai said as they saw Aquaro and Ron right under them.
"How did they find us so fast?" Cody said.
"So much for Davis' plan. Get me to that river. We'll have to stay and fight." Ross said as they landed. Ross jumped in the water and Aquaro jumped in. "Bring it on old man."
"Old man! I'm in my early 40's." Aquaro said.
"You're that young?" Ross said. Aquaro raised the water and turned them into icicles, but Ross created a water wall blocking them. Ross brought up water tentacles, but Aquaro moved out of the way. Sora jumped kick launching some air, but Aquaro surrounded himself in ice.
"Hey Cody how about a rock fire combo." Tai said as they faced Ron. Cody launched some rocks and Tai surrounded them in fire, but Ron kept moving out of the way. Rogrif pounded the ground and had two rocks rise up and hit them in the gut. Sora and Ross continued to fight Aquaro, but he formed water spirals and knocked both of them down.
"I guess you children have had enough." Aquaro said.
"Cody, shall we?" Ross said.
"Let's." Cody said. Ross formed a curved piece of ice and Cody formed a curve rock and hit both of them locking them together. Sora created a gust of wind and sent them flying down the river.
…
Davis
Davis continued to walk down the path he went leaving a trail until he sensed something. He turned around and saw Flint walking up to him.
"Finally caught up to you." Flint said.
"What do you want?" Davis said.
"To get you out of the way of our plans. Are you sure you want to fight me?" Flint said. Then Valgo came jumping out of the trees with his swords out.
"Yeah I do." Valgo said.
"Valgo, you're here too!?" Davis said.
"Back off Flint. The Avatar is all mine." Valgo said.
"You had your chance junior." Flint said.
"I'll even take both of you on." Valgo said.
"Same here." Davis said ready to fight.
"It's your funerals." Flint said. Then he started launching flames at both of them. Valgo went into attack with his sword, but Davis jumped and cut them off with his air bending. Valgo tried slashing at him, but Davis ducked down and Valgo avoided Flint's flames. Davis slammed his foot on the ground creating a shockwave and unbalancing them. Then he tossed his flames, but they both moved out of the way. Flint continued to shoot fire, but Valgo was able to move out of the way and came up to him, but Flint jumped back. Flint jumped off a tree and tried to strike both of them, but Davis created an earth shield and Valgo took cover behind some trees. Flint looked up and saw the digimon flying towards them. "I guess it's time to go." He surrounded himself in flames and disappeared.
"Great I have you to myself." Valgo said as he charged in at Davis. Davis ducked from Valgo's attack and tried fire slid kick, but Valgo jumped out of the way. Then Davis tossed him back with air bending. Valgo noticed the others landed and ran off.
"Was that Valgo?" Ross said.
"Yeah he's in this too and he seems to know them. What about the other two?" Davis said.
"Taken care of." Cody said.
"But how were they able to find us?" Armis said.
"Valgo could have been spying on us?" Kari said.
"I don't think it was him. He seemed like he wanted me to himself, so then what gave us away?" Davis said.
…
The man in red Davis and the others fought the other day was talking to someone and was told about the fight.
"What one of them was an air bender?"
"Yes, but is most strange is that one bend earth and fire. He must have been the Avatar." The man in red said.
"That shouldn't be possible."
