Chapter Fifteen: Bryan the Digidestined
"How the hell did they get loose?" Zartan grumbled as he and the well kids ran through a hallway. "We've had half the troops down with it before and they managed to keep it contained!"
"I think we should check the cafeteria." Kristen said. "That's where Ry and Mitch will have gone."
"Good plan." Andi said. "Oh, and Sharra, be prepared to use your powers on him. He may be our friend, but he's sick now."
"Kinda like old Yeller." Kristen commented.
"I will do my best." Neal nodded as the group turned the corner and opened the mess hall doors. There, in the middle of the room, was Bryan. His hair was spiked in all directions, wore a blue t-shirt and khaki shorts, and had hijacked a pair of goggles from some poor fellow.
"Oh, lord, he thinks he's Tai." Andi groaned.
"Who?" Zartan asked.
"You ever watch Digimon?" Kristen asked. "He's the group leader."
"Okay…" Zartan sighed. "Bryan! Get down off of that table so we can talk!"
"Who is this Bryan?" The brown-haired boy shouted back. "My name is Tai!"
"Fine, Tai, come down so we can talk." Zartan tried again
"Not until I'm done defeating Andromon!" Bryan said as the snack machine sparked and fizzled.
"I think he's dead, Tai!" Kristen shouted. "Now get your goggle-wearin' ass down here!"
"Yeesh, Sora, you don't have to be such a grouch." Bryan winced as he flew over.
"Uh, Boss, he's invulnurable." Andi whispered.
"I know that, Atlantis." Zartan replied. "I swung by the munitions bunker and picked up a container of knock-out gas."
"That'll work, but how will we get him to smell it?" Andi asked.
"Who are you talking to, Jeni (A/N: forgive me if this is misspelled)?" Bryan asked Zartan. "Is she another digidestined?"
"Uh… Yes." Zartan said. "Yes, she is another like you."
"Cool!" Bryan smiled. "What's your name?"
"I'm… My name is Akai." Andi covered.
"Hello, Akai." Bryan said. "Why were you brought here?"
"Jeni has something for you." Kristen said. "Something special."
"What is it?" Bryan asked eagerly.
"It's in this container." Zartan answered. "It's a very special formula. Take a whiff."
"Okay." Bryan sniffed the gass and instantly passed out on the floor.
"That wasn't too bad." Neal said.
"But we need to find the others." Andi said. "Kris, you and Neal go see if you can track Regan down. I'll take Mitch."
"Cool." Kristen said. "See ya in a few!"
And the team splits. What will Vampira and Thunderbird do when they find Regan? Keep reviewing, and I'll update so you can find out!
