Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ Digimon 02: The Strength of Friendship ❯ Stuck in the Digital World ( Chapter 2 )
[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
A word of caution before I continue with this story. Last night, two people unintentionally offended me. It was how they said what they said in their reviews. Be careful what you say because I was so angry last night that I could've literally burst an artery or a vein in my brain, which would've really made me not feel well. If you think you don't understand my story, then email me, and I will guide you in a direction because I felt that the two reviwers really didn't get the point of the fic and really should've just waited before saying something. Otherwise, forever hold your peace and wait for the story to develop. It was only the first chapter. I'll admit, there are some fics that I don't understand at first, but I catch on as the fic develops. So be careful okay? Anyway:
Recap: The Digidestined had a washout of a day in the Real World and went to the Digital World. It was a beautiful day there, and they decided to relax. A couple of blasts to the past revealed that Flamedramon had kept a secret from Davis and his friends for a year. The secret of flight.

Chapter 2: Stuck in the Digital World
Unlike many nights in the Digital World, this night was very peaceful for the younger Digidestined. They and their Digimon slept peacefully. They woke up completely refreshed the next morning. Cody and Kari went fishing and came back with two small baskets full of fish. They had found the baskets in the cave. The Digimon and their partners ate their fill.
Veemon then sat in a corner to think. He really wanted to show Davis his[Veemon's] secret as Flamedramon. He knew that he would have to eventually, but he didn't feel that comfortable about it yet. He was still afraid of how Davis would react. The longer that he[Veemon] put on the charade of not being able to fly in public, the more it ate him alive.
'I wish that I was comfortable enough to tell you my secret Davis,' Veemon thought. He didn't register Davis right beside him.
"Something wrong Veemon?" Davis asked.
"Wha? Oh, it's nothing Davis," Veemon responded.
"Are you sure? You looked really deep in thought," Davis said.
"Yes. I'm sure," Veemon said.
Davis shrugged and left Veemon alone. He couldn't figure out why Veemon wouldn't say anything. 'What is bothering you so bad that you can't even tell me Veemon? I want to help you, but you won't give me the chance,' he thought, looking at Veemon.
Veemon looked back at Davis. 'I'm sorry Davis, but I can't tell you what's on my mind yet,' he thought. He didn't know that he would have to reveal his secret much sooner than he expected.
In another part of the Digital World, the enslaved Digimon destroyed the ports back to the Real World one by one. Soon, all but one port had been destroyed. This one port remained in tact for one reason only, which was to let Yolie, TK, Kari, Cody and their Digimon through, but to destroy it before Davis and Veemon could get through. That would trap Davis and Veemon in the Digital World.
"Now, we wait until the fools move to return to their world," the Digimon emperor said.
Back in the Emperor's base, Wormmon watched helplessly. 'I wish that there were something I could do. I don't want to see Davis hurt or killed,' he thought. He knew that he could be a big help if he could Digivolve, but he wouldn't be able to because of Ken's twisted personality. The next day, the Digidestined prepared to return to the Real World. Just as they got to the port they came in from, a bunch of Snimon attacked. Two of them immediately separated Davis and Veemon from the others. Veemon couldn't do anything because their sickles were dangerously close to Davis. The other Snimon went for the port.
"We got to stop them from destroying the port," Hawkmon said.
"You've got it Hawkmon," Yolie said as she and the others got out their D3s and D-Terminals.
"Digi Armor Energize!" everyone but Davis shouted.
"Hawkmon Armor Digivolve to...Halsemon: The Wings of Love!"
"Armadillomon Armor Digivolve to...Digmon: The Drill of Power!"
"Patamon Armor Digivolve to...Pegasusmon: Flying Hope!"
"Gatomon Armor Digivolve to...Nefertimon: The Angel of Light!"
The battle to keep the Snimon away from the port was on. The Digidestined and their Digimon were so focused on the fight, that they didn't notice Davis in a very dangerous situation.
"Tempest Wing!" Halsemon shouted.
"Star Shower!" Pegasusmon shouted.
"Gold Rush!" Digmon announced.
"Rosetta Stone!" Nefertimon announced.
The attacks kept the Snimon at bay for a little while. Then they came back at full force. The Digimon were overwhelmed and Dedigivolved.
"We have to leave now. Digiport open!" TK said.
The Digidestine and their Digimon left through the port. They were unaware that the Snimon waited for them to do that.
"Twin Sickle!" one of them shouted, destroying the port.
The other Snimon left, including the two that held Davis and Veemon at bay. Davis breathed a sigh of relief. He knew it was pure luck that he wasn't cut to ribbons. What he didn't realize is that he Snimon were told to hold him, but not kill him, just yet.
"Are you all right Davis?" Veemon asked.
"Yeah Veemon. I'm all right," Davis responded. "But now we're trapped," he added.
"The Digimon Emperor must have planned this," Veemon said.
"I absolutely agree Veemon," Davis agreed.
Meanwhile back in the Real World, the Digidestined got untangled form their rough landed in Izzy's room. TK couldn't help but feel that something was missing. He looked at his colleagues and figured it out right away. Davis didn't make it through.
"TK, what's wrong?" Yolie asked.
"Davis isn't here," TK responded.
The others looked around and saw that Davis was indeed not present.
"He must still be in the Digital World," Upamon said.
"We have to go back," Kari said. She tried to open the Digiport but nothing happened.
"What went wrong? It always works when we do that," Yolie said.
"Maybe our D3s can't access the Digital World now," Cody suggested.
"I don't think so Cody. Something must have happened before Davis could get through," Izzy said.
"Izzy is right Cody," Kari agreed.
Suddenly, TK, Kari, Cody, Izzy and Yolie heard Yolie's D3 beeping. She checked it and saw an email from Davis on it.
"It's an email from Davis," Yolie said.
"What does it say?" Gatomon asked.
"Give me your D3 Yolie. I'll hook it up to my computer so we'll all see what it says," Izzy said.
"Good idea Izzy," Yolie said, giving him her D3.
Izzy hooked up the D3 tho his computer, and they all saw the email that Davis sent them.
The email read: Guys, you probably tried to return here only to find out that you couldn't. The reason why is that the Snimon destroyed the port before I could get the chance to come through it. They held me back so I couldn't help you. I was literally on the edge of a sickle. I heard the Snimon say that the other ports were destroyed as well, trapping Veemon and me here, and keeping you from coming in. Davis
The others had only one reaction to that. They gasped very loudly.
"We better call the others for a meeting. Davis is in grave danger now," Patamon said.
The humans agreed. Soon, all the older Digidestined and their Digimon had come to Izzy's house. They wanted to know what was so urgent.
"So, what's the big emergency?" Joe asked.
"It's a huge one Joe. Davis is trapped in the Digital World," TK responded.
"What?!" the older Digidestined and their Digimon except Izzy screeched.
"How did this happen?" Matt and Tai asked.
Izzy printed out Davis's email and passed it around. The older Digidestined and their Digimon responded the same way the younger did. They gasped very loudly.
"We have to do something," Mimi said.
"There's nothing we can do Mimi," Palmon said.
"But there must be something," Mimi argued.
"I'm afraid that Palmon's right Mimi. We can't do anything with the Digiports destroyed. We can only hope that Veemon can protect Davis until the ports are fixed," Matt said. "I hate being this helpless as much as you do Mimi. We all do."
"I just wish that there was something we could do," Sora said.
"I know," Biyomon agreed.
Meanwhile in the Digital World, Davis and Veemon were back at the place whre they slept last night. With the seemingly unending supply of food and fresh water there, they could live there as long as necessary. They didn't know that the Digimon Emperor watched their every move from his base.
"Perfect. It looks like Snimon are good for something after all," the Digimon Emperor said. He was unaware that Wormmon snuck out of the base again.
Wormmon went to meet up with Davis and Veemon. He knew places to hide so Ken wouldn't see him and be far enough from hearing range. He[Wormmon] would lead Davis and Veemon to one of those places so they could secretly talk. The path he'd chosen was even well hidden from the spotters from the base. He reached Davis and Veemon's location in half an hour because he caught a break as an Airdramon not controlled by the emperor flew by.
Davis and Veemon just sat around. Airdramon landed, but hidden so it wouldn't be seen. Wormmon got off, thanked the Airdramon, and the Airdramon flew off. Wormmon then hid in a patch of bushes.
"Who's there?" Davis asked as he heard the bushes rustle. He and Veemon approached the bushes.
They saw Wormmon in the bushes. Wormmon put one of his legs to his mouth and gestured for them to follow him. They followed Wormmon to one of the few areas that the emperor didn't bother to put spotters at this time.
"So what are you doing here?" Davis asked curiously.
"I suppose you know that Ken was responsible for trapping you here," Wormmon said.
Davis and Veemon nodded.
"Well, you're going to have to ward off a lot of Digimon then because I overheard him say something about testing how much endurance Veemon has. I don't know exactly how many Digimon he will send to face you, but I know that it's quite a few," Wormmon said.
"We'll just have to do the best we can, right Veemon?" Davis asked.
"You said it," Veemon responded.
"I would love to help you, but I can't Digivolve without Ken," Wormmon said.
"You never know Wormmon. Maybe you can. Just think about Ken before he became the Digimon Emperor. Think of what he would say to you. There aren't any control spires around so give it a try," Davis said.
"I'll try," Wormmon said. He took Davis's advice and focused on the Ken that he knew. He began to glow white. He felt the power from only the memories of the Ken he knew. Before he knew it, he was Digivolving. "Wormmon Digivolve to...Stingmon!"
Davis and Veemon could only look at the new Champion in awe. Stingmon looked like a cross between a human and a wasp.
"I can't believe I did it. Thanks Davis," Stingmon said.
"Anytime buddy," Davis said. "Now, let's get out of here."
Stingmon picked up Davis and Veemon and flew back to Davis and Veemon's current living area. Just like Stingmon said, there were enslaved Digimon ready to fight them. This large group consisted of Snimon. Stingmon landed and put Davis and Veemon down. Then he led the attack against the Digimon.
"You ready Veemon?" Davis asked.
"Do you even have to ask?" Veemon responded.
"Digi Armor Energize!" Davis shouted.
"Veemon Armor Digivolve to...Flamedramon: The Fire of Courage!"
"Go get 'em Flamedramon," Davis said.
"With pleasure," Flamedramon said, joining Stingmon in the fight.
"We can't fight them all. The best thing to do is to get rid of the dark rings around their necks," Stingmon said. "Spiking Strike!" he added as he made contact with a dark ring, shattering it.
"That sounds good enough of a plan to me," Flamedramon said. He jumped into the air and flames surrounded him. "Fire Rocket!" he shouted, aiming for an unsuspecting Snimon's dark ring. He made contact with the ring, and the ring shattered.
The now freed Snimon helped to free the other Snimon. As more Snimon were freed, the number greatly increased in Stingmon and Flamedramon's favor. With the help of the freed Snimon, they were able to free all the Snimon from the dark rings.
"Thanks for freeing us," a Snimon said.
"Don't mention it," Stingmon said.
Then the Snimon flew away. Stingmon and Flamedramon decided not to revert back to their Rookie forms. This way, they would be prepared for when the Digimon Emperor struck again. Back at the Emperor's base, the emperor was angry that yet another group of Digimon was no longer under his control. He carefully looked at the new Digimon with Davis and Flamedramon.
"I wonder who he is?" the emperor wondered. "No matter though because not even he can stop what I intend to do." He didn't even notice his Dark Device glowing a little. If he did, then he would've easily figured out that the new Digimon was his Digimon.
Meanwhile, Flamedramon went for some private time. He flew throught the skies. What has happened was still fresh in his mind. 'I can't believe how fast all this happened. Davis and I are stuck here until the ports are fixed. Now we have to fend off Digimon,' he thought. He didn't register Stingmon beside him.
"Something bothering you?" Stingmon asked.
Flamedramon snapped out of his trance at the question. "Is Davis alone now that you're here?" he asked.
"No, Davis is not alone. One of the Snimon we freed returned and is watching over him," Stingmon responded. "Does he know you can fly?" he added.
"No he doesn't. I'm just not comfortable about telling him yet. I kept my wings a secret for a year, and I still haven't told him," Flamedramon responded.
"You will have to show him eventually, probably sooner than we both think. I have a feeling that you will have to use your wings quite a bit as long as you and he are stuck here," Stingmon said.
Flamedramon nodded. They headed back to Davis and Stingmon. When in earshot, they heard a big explosion.
"We need to get there fast," Flamedramon said, speeding up.
Stingmon also sped up. 'Hang on Davis, Snimon, we're coming,' he thought.
Meanwhile, Snimon did all he could do defend Davis from the enslaved group of Monochromon and Unimon. Snimon tried to destroy the dark rings with his Twin Sickles attack, but the Monochromon countered with their Volcanic Strike. Snimon was seriously overpowered and got knocked unconscious. The enslaved Digimon then approached Davis.
"Fire Rocket!" a familiar voice shouted.
Davis saw Flamedramon collide with a Monochromon. The Monochromon got forced back into a tree. Flamedramon retracted his wings before he rocketed towards the Monochromon. He stood in front of Davis.
"Are you all right?" Flamedramon asked.
"I am now than you and Stingmon are here," Davis responded.
"Horn Blaster!" a Unimon shouted from high above.
Fortunately, Stingmon saw the attack. "Davis, Flamedramon, heads up!" he shouted.
Flamedramon saw the oncoming attack first and tackled Davis to the ground.
"Spiking Strike!" Stingmon shouted as he flew for the Unimon that attacked Davis and Flamedramon.
The Unimon easily dodged the attack. Flamedramon got off of Davis and helped him stand.
"Are you okay?" Flamedramon asked.
"I am," Davis responded. He stood behind Flamedramon. He, Flamedramon and Stingmon failed to notice a Unimon come up from behind Davis.
The Unimon suddenly grabbed Davis and flew off. It happened so fast, that Davis didn't react at all. Flamedramon and Stingmon were so focused on the other Unimon and Monochromon, that they didn't realize that Davis was no longer with them. Flamedramon and Stingmon managed to free two Unimon and two Monochromon. Then just like when they freed two Snimon, the now four freed Digimon helped to free the others. Soon, all but one Unimon was accounted for.
"That was one crazy battle. But I'm glad it's over. What do you think Davis?" Flamedramon said.
No response.
"Davis?" Flamedramon asked again. He looked behind him to see Davis no longer there. "Davis!" he screamed.
The other Digimon looked to see that Davis was no longer there as well.
"One of the Unimon is missing. That one must have taken Davis," one of the Monochromon said.
"But where?" the other Unimon asked.
"I intend to find that out," Flamedramon responded in determination.
"One of us can give you a lift if you like," one of the Unimon said.
"No thank you. I'd rather do this on my own," Flamedramon said. His wings appeared in a flash of light. Then he took off.
"Flamedramon wait. We'll help you," Stingmon and the other Unimon said.
"All right," Flamedramon said smiling.
Then they flew in search of Davis with Flamedramon leading the way. He had picked up Davis's scent and followed it. Being with Davis just about all the time had given him[Flamedramon] a good period of time to recognize Davis's scent. They closed the gap fairly quickly because of their determination to rescue Davis.
"I see it up ahead," Flamedramon said.
"I see it too," Stingmon said.
The still enslaved Unimon landed near a cliff and put Davis on the very edge of it. Davis had to remain still not to go off the edge because he was almost off the cliff already. Flamedramon and the others landed out of the enslaved Digimon's range of sight.
"We need to get Unimon away from Davis. That way we can destroy the dark ring on its neck," Stingmon said.
"You Unimon can serve as a distraction. While it's distracted, Stingmon can try to destroy the dark ring. I'll get Davis," Flamedramon said.
The others nodded to the plan and got into position.
"Horn Blaster!" one of the non-controlled Unimon shouted.
The attack hit the controlled Unimon square in the back. It cried out in pain and looked towards the direction of the attack.
"So, you want to play. I'm ready," the controlled Unimon said. It attacked, but still kept Davis trapped.
'Come on. Get away from him,' Flamedramon thought. He was in the tree above the controlled Unimon.
The controlled Unimon had to move to keep up with the one fighting it. Flamedramon saw his chance and jumped down form the tree and landed in front of Davis. The controlled Unimon turned its head and saw Flamedramon. It prepared to kick him. Flamedramon saw that and ducked the kick. Unfortunately, Davis got kicked instead and got knocked off the cliff.
"Flamedramon!" Davis screamed.
Flamedramon looked over the cliff and saw Davis falling. "Davis!" he screamed. He dove off the cliff after Davis.
Davis saw that Flamedramon had jumped off the cliff. 'Now he's going to die with me,' he helplessly thought. He then saw a blue light come out of Flamedramon's back. He gasped when the light died down. 'Flamedramon has wings?' he thought.
Flamedramon caught Davis a few moments later. Then he flew back up. "Are you all right?" he asked.
"I am now thanks to you," Davis responded. "How long did you have wings?" he added.
"A year," Flamedramon responded. "I'm sorry for not telling you earlier Davis. It's just that I was afraid how you would react."
"Well I think it's awesome that you can fly," Davis said.
"You do?" Flamedramon asked.
"Yes," Davis responded smiling.
Flamedramon flew back up to the cliff and saw that the once controlled Unimon was no longer controlled. He then flew back home. An hour later, Stingmon joined them.
"I'd better be heading back to the base. I'll come when you need me," Stingmon said before Dedigivolving back to Wormmon. He got on a Unimon's back, and they headed back to the base. Wormmon showed the Unimon where to fly so they wouldn't be seen.
Unimon landed out of the base's sensors, and Worrmmon jumped down. He snuck in the base the same way he snuck out. As always, Ken didn't even acknowledge that he[Wormmon] was there.
'I will never be able to repay you for helping me Digivolve just from my memories of Ken before he became the Digimon Emperor. I'll be your friend forever and helpn you Davis,' Wormmon thought.
Flamedramon and Davis fell asleep not too long after Flamedramon landed. Things were peaceful right now, and Davis and Flamedramon wanted to enjoy that while it lasted. Flamedramon held Davis protectively and wrapped his wings around Davis.
Well, that's the end of Chapter 2. For the first time, there is no preview for the next chapter so sorry. This is a surprise that I want you to find out. Sorry, but I won't give any hints this time. As I said at the end of the first chapter, I have Chapter 3 already done and will post it either later today, or tomorrow. After that, then I will work on the chapters of the two Yugioh fics that I said to be on the lookout for.
And if you're going to review, please be careful of what you say and how you say it. One misunderstanding can lead to a lot of trouble. For those on ff.net, I'm in trouble because the administration misunderstood me, and that's why you no longer see this story under the Digimon category. Unless I get the go ahead to repost, you're going to have to read this story from mediaminer.org so sorry again but I've been under fire because of misunderstandings that so far ranged from people who totally missed the plot to those who just said something way too soon without giving this story a chance to develop.

"I'll try," Wormmon said. He took Davis's advice and focused on the Ken that he knew. He began to glow white. He felt the power from only the memories of the Ken he knew. Before he knew it, he was Digivolving. "Wormmon Digivolve to...Stingmon!"
Davis and Veemon could only look at the new Champion in awe. Stingmon looked like a cross between a human and a wasp.
"I can't believe I did it. Thanks Davis," Stingmon said.
"Anytime buddy," Davis said. "Now, let's get out of here."
Stingmon picked up Davis and Veemon and flew back to Davis and Veemon's current living area. Just like Stingmon said, there were enslaved Digimon ready to fight them. This large group consisted of Snimon. Stingmon landed and put Davis and Veemon down. Then he led the attack against the Digimon.
"You ready Veemon?" Davis asked.
"Do you even have to ask?" Veemon responded.
"Digi Armor Energize!" Davis shouted.
"Veemon Armor Digivolve to...Flamedramon: The Fire of Courage!"
"Go get 'em Flamedramon," Davis said.
"With pleasure," Flamedramon said, joining Stingmon in the fight.
"We can't fight them all. The best thing to do is to get rid of the dark rings around their necks," Stingmon said. "Spiking Strike!" he added as he made contact with a dark ring, shattering it.
"That sounds good enough of a plan to me," Flamedramon said. He jumped into the air and flames surrounded him. "Fire Rocket!" he shouted, aiming for an unsuspecting Snimon's dark ring. He made contact with the ring, and the ring shattered.
The now freed Snimon helped to free the other Snimon. As more Snimon were freed, the number greatly increased in Stingmon and Flamedramon's favor. With the help of the freed Snimon, they were able to free all the Snimon from the dark rings.
"Thanks for freeing us," a Snimon said.
"Don't mention it," Stingmon said.
Then the Snimon flew away. Stingmon and Flamedramon decided not to revert back to their Rookie forms. This way, they would be prepared for when the Digimon Emperor struck again. Back at the Emperor's base, the emperor was angry that yet another group of Digimon was no longer under his control. He carefully looked at the new Digimon with Davis and Flamedramon.
"I wonder who he is?" the emperor wondered. "No matter though because not even he can stop what I intend to do." He didn't even notice his Dark Device glowing a little. If he did, then he would've easily figured out that the new Digimon was his Digimon.
Meanwhile, Flamedramon went for some private time. He flew throught the skies. What has happened was still fresh in his mind. 'I can't believe how fast all this happened. Davis and I are stuck here until the ports are fixed. Now we have to fend off Digimon,' he thought. He didn't register Stingmon beside him.
"Something bothering you?" Stingmon asked.
Flamedramon snapped out of his trance at the question. "Is Davis alone now that you're here?" he asked.
"No, Davis is not alone. One of the Snimon we freed returned and is watching over him," Stingmon responded. "Does he know you can fly?" he added.
"No he doesn't. I'm just not comfortable about telling him yet. I kept my wings a secret for a year, and I still haven't told him," Flamedramon responded.
"You will have to show him eventually, probably sooner than we both think. I have a feeling that you will have to use your wings quite a bit as long as you and he are stuck here," Stingmon said.
Flamedramon nodded. They headed back to Davis and Stingmon. When in earshot, they heard a big explosion.
"We need to get there fast," Flamedramon said, speeding up.
Stingmon also sped up. 'Hang on Davis, Snimon, we're coming,' he thought.
Meanwhile, Snimon did all he could do defend Davis from the enslaved group of Monochromon and Unimon. Snimon tried to destroy the dark rings with his Twin Sickles attack, but the Monochromon countered with their Volcanic Strike. Snimon was seriously overpowered and got knocked unconscious. The enslaved Digimon then approached Davis.
"Fire Rocket!" a familiar voice shouted.
Davis saw Flamedramon collide with a Monochromon. The Monochromon got forced back into a tree. Flamedramon retracted his wings before he rocketed towards the Monochromon. He stood in front of Davis.
"Are you all right?" Flamedramon asked.
"I am now than you and Stingmon are here," Davis responded.
"Horn Blaster!" a Unimon shouted from high above.
Fortunately, Stingmon saw the attack. "Davis, Flamedramon, heads up!" he shouted.
Flamedramon saw the oncoming attack first and tackled Davis to the ground.
"Spiking Strike!" Stingmon shouted as he flew for the Unimon that attacked Davis and Flamedramon.
The Unimon easily dodged the attack. Flamedramon got off of Davis and helped him stand.
"Are you okay?" Flamedramon asked.
"I am," Davis responded. He stood behind Flamedramon. He, Flamedramon and Stingmon failed to notice a Unimon come up from behind Davis.
The Unimon suddenly grabbed Davis and flew off. It happened so fast, that Davis didn't react at all. Flamedramon and Stingmon were so focused on the other Unimon and Monochromon, that they didn't realize that Davis was no longer with them. Flamedramon and Stingmon managed to free two Unimon and two Monochromon. Then just like when they freed two Snimon, the now four freed Digimon helped to free the others. Soon, all but one Unimon was accounted for.
"That was one crazy battle. But I'm glad it's over. What do you think Davis?" Flamedramon said.
No response.
"Davis?" Flamedramon asked again. He looked behind him to see Davis no longer there. "Davis!" he screamed.
The other Digimon looked to see that Davis was no longer there as well.
"One of the Unimon is missing. That one must have taken Davis," one of the Monochromon said.
"But where?" the other Unimon asked.
"I intend to find that out," Flamedramon responded in determination.
"One of us can give you a lift if you like," one of the Unimon said.
"No thank you. I'd rather do this on my own," Flamedramon said. His wings appeared in a flash of light. Then he took off.
"Flamedramon wait. We'll help you," Stingmon and the other Unimon said.
"All right," Flamedramon said smiling.
Then they flew in search of Davis with Flamedramon leading the way. He had picked up Davis's scent and followed it. Being with Davis just about all the time had given him[Flamedramon] a good period of time to recognize Davis's scent. They closed the gap fairly quickly because of their determination to rescue Davis.
"I see it up ahead," Flamedramon said.
"I see it too," Stingmon said.
The still enslaved Unimon landed near a cliff and put Davis on the very edge of it. Davis had to remain still not to go off the edge because he was almost off the cliff already. Flamedramon and the others landed out of the enslaved Digimon's range of sight.
"We need to get Unimon away from Davis. That way we can destroy the dark ring on its neck," Stingmon said.
"You Unimon can serve as a distraction. While it's distracted, Stingmon can try to destroy the dark ring. I'll get Davis," Flamedramon said.
The others nodded to the plan and got into position.
"Horn Blaster!" one of the non-controlled Unimon shouted.
The attack hit the controlled Unimon square in the back. It cried out in pain and looked towards the direction of the attack.
"So, you want to play. I'm ready," the controlled Unimon said. It attacked, but still kept Davis trapped.
'Come on. Get away from him,' Flamedramon thought. He was in the tree above the controlled Unimon.
The controlled Unimon had to move to keep up with the one fighting it. Flamedramon saw his chance and jumped down form the tree and landed in front of Davis. The controlled Unimon turned its head and saw Flamedramon. It prepared to kick him. Flamedramon saw that and ducked the kick. Unfortunately, Davis got kicked instead and got knocked off the cliff.
"Flamedramon!" Davis screamed.
Flamedramon looked over the cliff and saw Davis falling. "Davis!" he screamed. He dove off the cliff after Davis.
Davis saw that Flamedramon had jumped off the cliff. 'Now he's going to die with me,' he helplessly thought. He then saw a blue light come out of Flamedramon's back. He gasped when the light died down. 'Flamedramon has wings?' he thought.
Flamedramon caught Davis a few moments later. Then he flew back up. "Are you all right?" he asked.
"I am now thanks to you," Davis responded. "How long did you have wings?" he added.
"A year," Flamedramon responded. "I'm sorry for not telling you earlier Davis. It's just that I was afraid how you would react."
"Well I think it's awesome that you can fly," Davis said.
"You do?" Flamedramon asked.
"Yes," Davis responded smiling.
Flamedramon flew back up to the cliff and saw that the once controlled Unimon was no longer controlled. He then flew back home. An hour later, Stingmon joined them.
"I'd better be heading back to the base. I'll come when you need me," Stingmon said before Dedigivolving back to Wormmon. He got on a Unimon's back, and they headed back to the base. Wormmon showed the Unimon where to fly so they wouldn't be seen.
Unimon landed out of the base's sensors, and Worrmmon jumped down. He snuck in the base the same way he snuck out. As always, Ken didn't even acknowledge that he[Wormmon] was there.
'I will never be able to repay you for helping me Digivolve just from my memories of Ken before he became the Digimon Emperor. I'll be your friend forever and helpn you Davis,' Wormmon thought.
Flamedramon and Davis fell asleep not too long after Flamedramon landed. Things were peaceful right now, and Davis and Flamedramon wanted to enjoy that while it lasted. Flamedramon held Davis protectively and wrapped his wings around Davis.
Well, that's the end of Chapter 2. For the first time, there is no preview for the next chapter so sorry. This is a surprise that I want you to find out. Sorry, but I won't give any hints this time. As I said at the end of the first chapter, I have Chapter 3 already done and will post it either later today, or tomorrow. After that, then I will work on the chapters of the two Yugioh fics that I said to be on the lookout for.
And if you're going to review, please be careful of what you say and how you say it. One misunderstanding can lead to a lot of trouble. For those on ff.net, I'm in trouble because the administration misunderstood me, and that's why you no longer see this story under the Digimon category. Unless I get the go ahead to repost, you're going to have to read this story from mediaminer.org so sorry again but I've been under fire because of misunderstandings that so far ranged from people who totally missed the plot to those who just said something way too soon without giving this story a chance to develop.
