Leaving the Dark Ocean
"What the..."Kari was in darkness looking around trying to find Gatomon."Gatomon? Tai? Davis? T.K? Chase? Oh no...not here!"Kari looked down to see water rising.
"Hey. Come on wake up."Kari snapped up awake to see Chase there looking at some of her photos."Well someone was adorable."She blushed as he showed a photo of her as a toddler.
"What are you doing here?"
"Your summer vacation starts today. We're spending most of it in the Digital World?"
"Oh yeah. How did you get in here?"
"Tai let me in, and by that I mean opened a Digiport."
"Okay let me change."Kari jumped out of bed and started to look at Chase impatiently.
"What?"
"I'm going to change."
"Okay and?"He was answered by Kari pushing him out the door and slammed it shut.
"Okay I'm ready."Kari walked out of her room in her summer clothes as Tai was throwing a ball back and forth with Chase.
"Alright. OW!"Chase got up but at the wrong time as Tai had already thrown the ball making it hit him in the face.
"Sorry, you going to be alright? I'm asking Sora to watch over you."
"She'll be fine man."
"Yeah Tai I am."
"She's got us and Gatomon."
"Okay then...anything or anyone hurts her, I'm killing you Chase."
"Why me?"
"If I try to kill Matt or Sora they'll kill me instead."
"That seems fair..."Chase hanged his head down depressed before Gatomon and Ryuninmon jumped on his back sending him to the floor."So did that..."
"Ready guys?"Chase, Kari, and their Digimon walked up to their teammates who were waiting for them while they were reading the Atlas.
"Yeah, what took you guys anyway?
"Tai went Big Brother mode."
"So do we head towards Cody's temple?"
"Let's go."
"I've been thinking, why were we chosen for this? Why us?"Ken looked at the campfire that Matt had started while he and Chase were fishing in the river near them as the girls and Cody were preparing the tools and the fire for Matt to cook while the Digimon grabbed some fruit.
"Well think about when we became normal Digidestined, why us? Because we're special."
"OW!"The ten looked to see a fish biting on Chase's finger and threw it at the fire. But he missed and hit Kari's head by mistake."Oh crap. Sorry!"
"You better be."Kari handed the fish to Ken and stood up and gave a friendly smile as she walked towards him. Before he could react, she jumped him and both of them went falling into the water.
"ACHOO!"Sora and Matt were trying hard not to laugh as Kari and Chase sat near the fire wrapped in towels soaked to the brim while Ken and Cody watched over the cooking food.
"Your fault..."
"You threw a fish at my head."
"Okay you two, stop the lover's quarrel. Dinner's almost ready."
"We're not...god that water's cold."
"Ow, why am I constantly getting hurt today?"Chase turned in his sleep and fell off the log he slept on waking him up as he landed on a rock. He then looked to see Kari with her eyes open but they looked dull and lifeless."Kari? Kari? Gatomon wake up. Ninja boy wake up."He then shook Gatomon awake and threw a pebble at Ryuninmon's head waking him up.
"What is it?"
"What's wrong with Kari?"Gatomon looked closely at her partner before recognizing what was happening.
"She's in the Dark Ocean."
"How do I get there?"
"What does that mean?"
"That place sounds like trouble and I want to help Kari. How do we get there?"
"I don't know, we usually get there some random way."
"Damn it. Of all things this dumb watch can do it can't..."Chase began to squeeze his Digistrap before slamming his hand on the ground and then grabbed his teammate's making it release a blue light as Kari's released a pink one merging both making a ball that scattered into three lights that hit Chase and the two Digimon in the heads and knocked them out.
"Have our babies Kari..."Kari was walking backwards trying to escape from a group of Divermon with a lust filled look in their eyes. She then tripped and was about to be grabbed but a sudden flash of lightning surprising her and the Divermon.
"That lightning?"
"DIGI NINJA ART: FLASH OF LIGHTNING!"She then shielded her eyes as lightning struck the Divermon sending them flying back as Gourydramon landed in front of them holding Gatomon and Chase.
"Kari!"
"Chase? Gatomon! What are you doing here?"
"Why wouldn't we be here?"Kari gave an interested look at Chase's answer surprising Gatomon."Okay fine, I woke up and you were terrifying me cuz your eyes had no light or life in them. So I woke these two up and our Digistraps acted all weird and next thing I know, we're here and...I wasn't about to let these creeps touch you."
"Get away from our Kari!"
"Your Kari? She's my teammate and I'll protect her even if it kills me got that! GOURYDRAMON GIVE THEM A LESSON ON WHAT I MEAN!"
"Got it. DIGI NINJA ART: FLASH OF LIGHTNING!"Lightning hit the Divermon again turning all of them into data making Chase chuckle. But what surprised all of them was that the data went into the water as a Cthulhu like Digimon rose up from it.
"That. Is. So. Not. Good."
"That's Dragomon...an ultimate level Digimon...he's the boss of this place..."
"YOU WERE ABOUT TO TAKE MY PRINCESS FROM ME AGAIN!"Dragomon grabbed Chase and began to squeeze him making Gourydramon jump at him.
"LET HIM GO! THUNDER BLADE!"Gourydramon tried to stab Dragomon only for when the blade touched his skin, it shattered into pieces shocking Gatomon and Kari. He then grabbed the Guardian of Thunder and began to squeeze him and Chase even tighter.
"You think that toy scares me? I killed Daemon and absorbed his data along with so many of my Digimon. I am untouchable now."
"Give him a shock bud!"
"Digi...Ninja...I can't...I can't even breathe."
"Kari make me Digivolve. We have to save them!"Gatomon shook Kari out of her trance making her nod.
"Right...we need Angewomon."
"Kari no...we...got...this..."They looked at Chase in horror as he began to stop struggling.
"NO CHASE! He's been helping and protecting us...it's time we do the same."
"Right, Gourydramon too."Kari's Digistrap began to glow as the words Digivolve appeared on it.
"Alright. GATOMON! ELEMENT DIGIVOLVE!"
"GATOMON ELEMENT DIGIVOLVE TO..."Gatomon was covered in a bright light shocking Dragomon as the light grew bigger before a silver version of Angewomon with longer hair, her blue eyes visible from a visor in her new helmet, and two sets of metallic wings and a gauntlet on her left arm resembling a crossbow."ARCHANGEWOMON!"
"Archangewomon?"
"Let go of them! HEAVENLY BOLT!"She raised her arm making a ball of light turn into a crossbow bolt and fired it. It then split in two and hit Dragomon's tentacles making him roar in pain and let go of the duo making them fall but she caught them just in time.
"Hey there...you look hotter."Gourydramon made Archangewomon blush as she put them down.
"Uh...Dragomon you and this damned place have tried to hurt Kari and our friends long enough."
"GIVE ME MY PRINCESS! FORBIDDEN TRIDENT!"Dragomon threw his trident with all his strength at the Guardian of Light only for her to stop it with ease.
"Not on your life. CELESTIAL AIR!"She then threw the Trident on the ground and spread her arms freezing Dragomon in place as Chase and Gourydramon's strength came back and they stood up feeling as if nothing had happened while a white ring appeared above her."Gourydramon give me your strength!"
"Got it beautiful! DANCE OF THUNDER!"Multiple bolts of lightning hit the ring making it glow even brighter until it shrank and went into Archangewomon.
"Thank you. AND FACE THE PUNISHMENT OF THE HEAVENS! HEAVENLY BOLT!"She fired another Heavenly Bolt making it go through Dragomon's head. As it seemed to regenerate, he was then electrified by the charge from Gourydramon's attack turning him into data.
"Wow, remind me not to get on your bad side."Gourydramon looked at his female teammate in awe making her chuckle."What?"
"There's no way you'd ever get on my bad side."
"No need to tell Tai about this right?"Kari blushed looking at Chase confusing him.
"About what?"
"Exactly."
"No seriously what?"
"Hm? Weird dream."Kari woke up right as the sun began to rise to see Chase and their digimon asleep next to her. But she held her hand and began to blush intensely seeing he was holding her hand.
"That wasn't a dream."Chase woke up and showed the red marks he got from being squeezed by Dragomon.
"No way...do you think our Digimon like each other?"
"Why?"
"Ryuninmon called her hotter and beautiful and she was blushing at all of that."
"Probably some platonic flirting. I'm going to go refill our water bottles."Chase stood up and went towards the river as Kari held her hand tighter.
"I heard some Digimon reflect the feelings of their Digidestined..."
