Argetlahm (Various Locations)
Day 14, 11:35 AM


Ah, yes, it was a peaceful day on the Argetlahm for once. Everything apparently returned to its normal self. Karsh and Vegeta exchanged scowls. Goku and Gohan trained. TK and Izzy looked up arcane and obscenely powerful Ki attacks and magic spells in the library. Conker relaxed with Berri along with a case of beer. Kari chatted with friends over the internet. Heero and Duo were outside in space perfecting their piloting skills on their new Gundams. Serge once again attempted various Kata moves in the training gym. Veemon let off some steam in the shooting range. Davis played Quake 3. Ultimanium stared into space. Magnus ate. Lord Raul sat in the hall of his bunk and spoke to anyone who dared pass him in Draconian dialect. For once, everything was normal.



But then again, that's how it always starts, doesn't it?

Tai sat at his computer terminal, attempting to decipher the computer code in front of him. "I'm not good with computers."

"It's not computer language, it's just a math equasion," Armadillomon chirped. "Can't you at least figure out your schoolwork?"

Cody sat on the top bunk, letting his feet dangle. "Tai, are you sure it's a good idea to sneak into TK's bunk like this? If he found us..."

Tai turned around in his chair. "If he found us, he would know that we had a perfectly legitimate reason to do something like sneak into his bunk without his permission. Now, help me look at this."

Cody squinted. "All I can understand out of the entire thing is 0.00001. It's all Greek to me."





********




(A/N - Remember that throughout this chapter, the Yolei from the sixth dimension boarded the Argetlahm by accident (see the end of last chapter), and any tastes expressed by her are of her 6D form. Tread lightly. Oh, and Ultimanium will smite her if need be.)






The light in the engine room slowly subsided. A dazed Yolei stepped forward from the dimensional warp, the door behind her fading slightly. It was still there, but somewhat less noticeable. Yolei stood about the massive engines and scattered machinery lying across the massive floor of the engine hall, her eye focused on the brilliant blue blasts raging out the rears of the thrusters, pushing the Argetlahm forward. "Such primitive propulsion."

During the next several hours, she managed to sneak undetected about the Argetlahm, cloaking herself against the wall whenever someone passed. The privacy shielding built into her ID chip helped her greatly to avoid detection from the people who walked the halls of the capship. Somehow, they all seemed familiar to her. But, still, they remained a good ways away from her understanding. She began to get ideas as she listened in on some private conversations in the rec room.

Karsh picked up the remote control and started flipping through the channels. "Hey, Davis. How's you're training going?"

"Same old, same old," Davis sighed, as he flopped down on the couch. "I'm trying to get Squall to teach me some of his Limit Breaks but he isn't complying."

"You know our game special moves. Secret stuff. How about Veemon? How's he taking the Gatomon ordeal?"

Yolei blinked. Davis? THAT'S Davis?! Veemon?? Gatomon?!? What's going on here?!

"Okay," Davis sighed. "I think he's been getting waaaay too trigger happy in the range lately, though."

"Aaah, he needs to blow off steam, even if it means missing a lot."

"He's gotten head shots every single time since he started."

"....oh."


Yessir, Yolei knew that something was different about Davis. Rather than his yellow shirt, green plaid pants and cokebottle glasses (A/N - Sixth dimension fashion. Who would've knew?), he had spiky hair, khaki shorts and a killer 60's vintage jacket. Hot stuff, Yolei giggled to herself. I wonder if any other of the digidestined are aboard.

TK threw open the door. "Alright, who put the fake python in my bed?!" He held up the plastic snake in one hand.

Omigosh! TK! He actually had hygeine! He shaved! He bathed! ...which couldn't be said for the 6D TK, no. That TK let loose a fearing primal scream at the sight of soap and every damn girl in school hated his guts. But this one... what's with all the digidestined guys? They're all so...

Tai burst in. "Hey, guys! Conker's hosting drinking games down at his bunk! Who's comin'?"

Yolei shook her head. No way. Tai, the computer nerd, who shared Davis' dress code. But wait a minute, now he drinked! He had muscle mass of SOME sort! And his hair was wild! WILD!! Calm down, Yolei.


Ultimanium walked in. "I'm up for some fun."

"Ultimanium?!"
"Ultimanium?!"
"Ultimanium?!"
"Ul timanium?!"


Yolei's eyes grew wide. Now THIS was what she was looking for. Some mysterious prince with an attitude. Yolei's mental competition fought between Davis, TK, Tai and... Ultimanium.

Ultimanium frowned, and looked around nervously. "Hey, Ulty," Karsh laughed. "What's wrong, having second thoughts?"

"...um..." Ultimanium stammered. "Is there anyone else in this room that I don't know of? Besides Davis, Tai, TK and Karsh?"

"No," TK said, tossing the plastic python to his side. "Why?"

Ultimanium shook his head. "I don't know.. it's like I sense someone else in here.."

Everybody except Yolei began walking to the door. "Eh, guys..." TK stuttered.

"What?" Tai asked.

"Do you really think it's a good idea to drink right now?"

Karsh grabbed TK's collar and began hauling him off. "Quite being a damn wuss and drink with us."


Yolei grinned. Great. Maybe she would join in, who knows...












". .and then his chest exploded! And this huge alien came after me, and..."

Goku shook his head. "Conker, you've had too much to drink."

Conker peered at the unopened case on the table. "I haven't even started yet."

The door creaked open slowly, TK, Tai, Davis and Ultimanium looking in. The room was relatively clean, for Conker staying in there, anyways. Conker and Goku were seated on the bottom bunk in the room. A small card table was placed in the center of the room with a pair of cases of beer sitting on it. Lord Raul sat in the corner of the room, meditating.

"....Raul?" TK said, confused.

"..." Raul had his hands placed on his temples. He was focusing on a small piece of blue crystal lying on the ground in front of him. Slowly, he disengaged his hands from his head and looked up at TK. "...Takeru. Don't bother me, I'm trying to forge something here."

"Ah, don't mind him," Conker sighed. "He's been sitting here since this morning trying to weld crap together with his mind. Swords. Big swords, small swords, whatever. I couldn't understand anything he was saying. Stuff like the Sword of Troop."

"That wasn't it," Raul hummed. "And you'll never truly know if you keep bothering me."

Goku nodded. "You should move into the tech library. It would be easier to concentrate in there."

Raul sat up, grasping the crystal. Miniture waves of energy pulsed off the rock every couple seconds. "I guess you are right. I'll see you all tonight."

Tai shoved out of the way as Raul went by. "....tonight?"

Ultimanium grasped Tai's shoulder. "Let him go. He has work to do."

Conker leaned back. "We're just here to have a night of drinking, ruminating, ... drinking...ruminating.... drinking, drinking, ruminating, drinking, ruminating, ruminating, drinking... and some ruminating if we have time."

"Don't forget drinking." Karsh said.

Conker grinned. "Oh, yeah. Can't forget that." He reached back and took a long sip from his beer before placing it back on the table. "To keep it simple, Ulty and us decided to just lay smooth for the night and relax. Share adventures. You know."

TK glanced around hesitantly. "Well.. we don't drink..."

"I suppose just one won't hurt," Davis moaned. He reached in and opened a beer and took a sip from it.

Oooh, Yolei thought. He drinks.... if we could get him drunk enough...

TK sat down on the bunk as everyone else joined in on a hearty drink. As he heard the various topics flying around the table, he decided to join in. "Hey, Ultimanium," TK questioned. "Has anyone been to the sixth dimension before?"

Ultimanium placed down his beer. "The sixth dimension.. I know a few people, mostly Zeal avatars. Why?"

"I was wondering what it was like."

"There's only been a few classified attempted jumps to the sixth dimension," Ultimanium mumbled. "What you saw on Izzy's last night was only the beginning of things.. as you may have noticed, everything is generally a full 180 from what you would expect in the fourth dimension... since reality editation regins supreme there, Zeal sages hypothesized that someone may have tampered with the dimensional fabric in that world, turning it back on itself. That is what you see through the uplink - a total reversal of beliefs, personalities, everything. To that extent, people look at the sixth dimension as an even more dangerous place than the first or second dimensions."

Sixth... fourth dimension? Is this what I'm going through?

Tai rocked back on his chair. "But if we had some kind of advocate of the sixth dimension, I could imagine we could learn a lot about it."

You want an advocate? I'll show you an advocate!

Yolei quickly decloaked and leaped into an empty seat. "Hi, guys!!"

Everybody's eyes widened as they let out a horrified scream. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

"Everybody!" Yolei sputtered, holding various people down. "It's me, Yolei!"

"Y-you're not Yolei!" Davis yelped. "You're too hot to be Yolei!! You don't have glasses! You're..."

Everybody looked at Davis strangely.

Davis sweatdropped. "What?"

Ultimanium stood up. "She DOES look different from Yolei..."

Yolei drug her seat closer to Ultimanium. "Well... who are you... 'Ultimanium'..."

Ultimanium sweatdropped. "You can get away from me now."

"Would this be an example of someone from the sixth dimension?" TK asked.

"I guess she gets points for falling out of thin air." Conker said.

Goku stepped forward. "Yolei."

Yolei whipped around to stare Goku in the face. "Whoa-hoa-hoa!! This one's even better!!"

Goku threw his arms in front of him to stop the overzealous Yolei from glomping him. However, she was slowly gaining ground.

"Goku!" Conker yelled. "Put some strength into it!"

"I'm... I'M TRYING!!" Goku shouted back, inbetween grunts. Eventually, Yolei threw him onto the bed. It took Ultimanium to stop her before Goku would have things to say to Chichi. Ultimanium tossed Yolei back onto the floor.

"Goku!" Ultimanium barked. "Was Yolei really able to overpower you?!"

"Y-YES!!" the traumatized Goku stammered.

Conker grit his teeth. "Do people from the sixth dimension have that kind of power?"

"Well.." Ultimanium sighed. "With the reality editation that occurs all the time in the sixth dimension, it is common for everyday people to possess super powers... I've been told it's a way of life there..."

"Shut up, all of you!" Yolei shouted. "All this fourth, sixth dimension crap - our reality is always referred to as the sixth dimension - what dimension am I in right now?"

"We're in the first." Goku said.

"But everybody here is from the fourth and fifth dimensions." Conker added.

Yolei smirked. ".. I'm kind of liking this one better... hot guys and all..."

Everybody sweatdropped. "We have to get out of here." Karsh said.

Yolei twisted a strand of her purple hair. "In the sixth dimension... every single guy out there wants me... but they're all nerds! I think I've found who I want right here."

TK snickered. "Alternate dimension, all right."

Ultimanium stood forward. "You're taking no one from this ship."

"Who's going to stop me?" Yolei scowled, turning toward Ultimanium. "You are all fifth-fourth-dimensioners, I have a greater power level than all of you! Ultimanium, I'll fight your guys if that's what it takes to get them back to the sixth dimension with me!!.. especially you."

Davis frowned. "She's an even bigger nutcase than she was in the fourth dimension."

"...sixth-dimensional trash!" Ultimanium muttered. "If that's what it takes, then yes. We'd be more than happy to fight you. I or my crew wouldn't go out with you if you were the last bitch remaining in ANY dimension, period. Get out of our faces!" He turned to the drinking crew. "Can you take her?"

TK fell onto the bunk. "We can try."

Ultimanium turned back to Yolei. "Please, Yolei, don't do this. We're on a very important mission..!"

"SHADDUP!!" Yolei yelled, throwing a blind fist at Ultimanium. Ultimanium caught it and threw it back in Yolei's face.

"Let's get this over with." Conker mumbled.








********







Gatomon woke up, finding herself in someone's arms. "W-where... where am I..?"

"About damn time you woke up." Ultramagnus muttered, throwing the half-awake Gatomon to the floor. "You have work to do."

Gatomon pushed herself away from Ultramagnus. "Work? Now what the hell do you want? The forcefield was bad enough, but..."

A roar echoed down the hall.

Ultramagnus smiled. "Gatomon, do you have any idea what that is?"

"...can't say I do."

"Welcome, Gatomon, to my tower's basement floor. This is where I keep the evil digimon that some friends of mine have accumulated throughout their travels.. you might know their leader well. KAISER!!"

A figure shrouded in darkness stepped around the corner. "Yes, Ultramagnus?"

Gatomon's eyes grew wide. "...I know that voice..."






Ken plodded slowly up to Ultramagnus, looking down to the powerless Gatomon at his feet. He was fully decked out in his Emperor outfit, though the colors on his clothes were faded somewhat. "New genetic samples. Great. Thanks, Ultramagnus."

"K-Ken?!" Gatomon yelped.

Ultramagnus laughed. "Oh, don't worry, I assure you, this isn't the Ken you know. You want to know what happened to the Digidestined from this dimension? They were smacked down by MaloMyotismon. Bad. These Digidestined didn't particularly show the same ambition and hope the ones in your dimension did, and they lost. Ken is the only one living. Seeing no other alternative, he decided to join up with my little band. I hope you enjoy experimentation.."

"Megakimeramon is awaiting one more sample. After that, he will be completed." Ken droned.

"Megakimeramon?!" Gatomon wailed. "Ken! What have you done?! What's Megakimeramon?!"

Ultramagnus smirked. "Just a little idea I got from the original model Kimeramon that was constructed in your dimension. Except this one is made up of many, many more models of digimon. I believe the number tops off at 50. You should be proud to contribute to a masterpiece like Megakimeramon."

"You're not getting any needles in me!!" Gatomon yelled.

Ken shook his head. "Who said anything about needles? We cannot obtain pure genetic information from a digimon like you using bloodstream genes, Gatomon. We intend to breed you to Megakimeramon and raise the hatchling to fight Ultimanium's crowd. The gestation is extremely short... 8 hours, I believe. However, we need you to be fully rested before you can fertilize properly. We're going to leave you for... I don't know.. about 36 hours. Then we will... well, you know."

Gatomon growled. "Never!" Picking herself off the ground with superhuman agility, she hurled herself at Ken. "Lightning Claw!!"

Gatomon's claws shredded across Ken's face, leaving a trail of blood in the air, and some dripping from Gatomon's paw.

"YYYYAAAAGGUUUUUGHHH!!!!!" Ken screamed, holding the multiple dripping scars implanted across his face. "Stupid little bitch!!"

Gatomon was ready to launch another strike when Ultramagnus brought a fist down on her, knocking her out. "Problem solved."

Ken fought back against the searing pain scorching across his face. "..ackkk....get her rested. When she's done resting, we'll get her down here and breed her. Then I kill her. Good enough?"

Ultramagnus shrugged. "Suit yourself." He turned and began hauling the unconscious Gatomon back up to his office.

















Yolei flung Goku against the training gym wall. With some effort, Goku shoved himself off the wall and lunged at Yolei. They locked in a flurry of punches, Yolei dodging every single assault by Goku with minimal effort. With a single gesture, Yolei brought her arm up and knocked Goku away from her into the air, him landing about 20 feet away.

Goku quickly leaped to his feet. "This is impossible!!"

The entire Argetlahm crew watched from a nearby bench. "This is nuts!" Kid shouted. "Even Goku is getting wiped!"

Vegeta stood to his feet. "Maybe it requires a little more effort on the Saiyan end of things. WOMAN!! You don't want to fight him!! I, Vegeta, will defeat you!!"

Cloud buried his head in his hands. "Here he goes again."

With no warning, Goku and Vegeta dove at the occupied Yolei at the same time, limbs flailing. Even through the tag-team assault of the two Saiyans, Yolei was effortlessly sidestepping every single attack the team threw at her.

Agumon threw his fists in the air, a good distance away. "Right! Left! Left! Right! Nooooo!! You're doing it wrong!"

Davis glared at TK. "If someone went with her we wouldn't be in this mess right now."

TK's eyes grew wide. "But she's so.... weeeeeeeeeird..."

Goku flew past the observation bench, and kept going through a nearby wall. Vegeta fired himself back and landed by the bench. "Everybody! I wouldn't mind some help here!!"

"We could always just try to talk some sense into her." Patamon chirped.

"But then again, you would have to digivolve just to get close to her." Cody sighed.

Gohan leaped into the fray. "Try me!!"

Yolei froze and stared at the enraged Gohan. "Oooooh!! You're so cute!" She slowly began to walk up to Gohan, bending down to him. Gohan railed Yolei in the face with an elbow, sending her into the wall. She slowly got up from the wreckage. "....I hate kids." Yolei, now aware, dove at Gohan and smashed him into the ground. The crippled Gohan slowly made his way back to the bench.

Conker rubbed his chin. "Maybe if she wasn't fighting someone she would take back with her, she wouldn't fight so vigorously."

Everybody stared at Conker.

"....fine, I'll get up there." Conker slowly pushed himself off the bench and waddled over to Yolei's position. "Hey! Fight me!"

Yolei stared down on Conker. "...who the hell are you? I don't have a fetish with squirrels, sorry. Do you even like girls?"

Conker grinned.

Yolei patted Conker on the head. "Well, you're a ways off from getting a girlfriend."

Berri waved. "I'm his girlfriend!"

Yolei gave Berri a disgusted stare. "...now that is the sluttish outfit I have ever seen!"

Conker frowned. "Maybe she just likes wearing shorts and belly shirts. Do you mind?"

Yolei snickered. "Weeeeell, looks like you're going to get more action than I thought!"

Both Berri and Conker glared at Yolei. "Eh... Yolei..." Conker mumbled. "You're beginning to bother me."

"Well, it would figure that the one freak-squirrel-man would have to go with the whore that had no where else to go, right?"

Both Conker and Berri were looking extremely aggravated... Conker more so than Berri.

"What.. did.. you... say?" Conker growled.

Serge fanned his face. "Is it getting hotter in here, or is it just me?"

Squall wiped some sweat off his brow. "No way, it is getting warmer in here."

"Aeroblaster!!" Serge yelled, activating one of his elements. A gust of wind shot by the bench, cooling everybody on the bench down instantly.

"Thanks, man." Tai said.

Gohan sat up from his crater in the corner of the room. "...huh? Wait a minute, his power level's rising!"



"You heard what I said," Yolei laughed. "WHORE!"

A heat wave radiated off of Conker. Ultimanium felt it.

Ultimanium smiled. "The Ki's activating." (A/N - The Ki liquid... remember?)

Conker twitched. "Say it again and I pound the living shit out of you."

Yolei started twisting her hair again. "What?.... WHORE?!"

Everybody could catch sight of the small blue flame that shot up from around Conker's feet, before subsiding.

Conker plugged his ears.

"Whore! WHORE! WHORE!! WHORE!! WHORE!!!" Yolei taunted.









"SHUT THE FUCK UP, BITCH!!!" Conker bellowed. Everybody hid behind the bench. Conker threw himself at Yolei and started pounding her in the gut. Once Yolei realized what was going on, she threw her clasped fists down to flatten Conker, but realized he wasn't there. Conker drove a fist into Yolei's side, making her yelp. When she swung around to pound him, he was already on Yolei's opposite flank, ready to deliver a kick to Yolei's head. With a sickening crack, Yolei was sent sliding across the gym floor. Conker shot off after Yolei, diving a knee into her ribcage as she attempted to get up. Before anybody could say anything, they righted themselves and started nailing each other with blurred punches. Conker whipped out his Uzis and fired off several rounds, Yolei stopping to deflect them. However, it bought Conker enough time to leap back in and deliver several quick jabs to Yolei. Yolei hit the ground hard, Conker still kicking her.

Magnus ran in carrying the J3. "What's going on here? Ulty, what did you need the J3 for?"

"Put it down!" Ultimanium shouted. "Get a portal going to the second dimension!!"

"But if anyone goes through there, they'll be compressed!!"

Ultimanium nodded. "Exactly."


The J3 crackled with energy as the black, misty portal shot open. "Conker!!" Ultimanium yelled. "Get her over here!"

Conker picked up Yolei and threw her to Ultimanium. Ultimanium's fist lit up with blue flame as him and Yolei continued beating on each other. Through the fray, Ultimanium delivered the flaming fist to Yolei's face, busting her nose. He picked her up and threw her as hard as he could through the portal, the portal closing behind her.

Conker dusted his hands. "Done like dinner." The blue aura around him slowly crept down. Everybody let out a hearty cheer as Conker made his way back to the bench, stumbling every couple of steps.

"Holy shit!" Goku laughed. "That was sweet!"

Ultimanium wiped his brow. "Let's hope we don't have to go through that again. Conker, that power you just experienced was that of the Ki you absorbed. That is what I meant by Ki enhancing you."

Lord Raul came in from the hallway. "Good news, everyone. The dimensional rupture has finally been completely healed. Nobody's going to be able to get through."

Everybody breathed a sigh of relief.




Besides, it was time for lunch.









The evil Yolei has finally been defeated! (Sorry, I just had to say that.) That's all I have to say on that front. Next comes another mission... but, it's not one you might expect... Some pissed off digimon get to go it alone next time on the Argetlahm Adventures!!
