Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ First Terra ❯ The Anti-Digidestined ( Chapter 5 )

First Terra

Ch. 5-The Anti-Digidestined

Prologue-Have you ever wondered what it would be like if the Digidestined fought themselves, well get ready to rumble!! Note: The future scene in Chapter 4, where they found out that the Overlords went 21 years into the future and not 12, well that 21 is supposed to be 121 years. Now to recap, here's Biyomon.

Biyomon enters, "We set out to find Lewis, who ran off looking for Matt. When we found them, Matt was incoherent and paranoid, a disorder caused by one of the Emperor's 'experiments.' After subduing him, we were attacked by the Masked Empress. During the battle, Lewis and Izzy get the idea to use Odinkabuterimon's Staff of Asgard to disable the device. He was able to partially disable it, before he himself was hit by an EM Pulse from the copycat Mimedramon and all his power neutralized. Things didn't look good for us until Araiya realized that Andromon was her Digimon and he digivolved to his ultimate level of NeoAndromon. In the nearby cave, Matt found a secret room. Combatting the voices and urges in his cerebrum, he reached the center and found the Shard of Trust and its amulet. He used it to make Gabumon Terravolve to his Terra level of DaoGarurumon. With time frozen, he stopped a near catastrophe from happening and terminated the Subatomimon. Lewis captured the Empress, but was then assaulted by Metalseadramon. When he was attacked though, he removed the Mask from the Empress, revealing Sora as the one behind all the atrocities. The Digimon Emperor sent us a message that was followed by Dark Rings. I was one of the victims. Agumon though, gained the power to shatter Sora's black digivice and Terravolve to Paladingreymon, again. He cured us, and by doing so made it impossible to fall under his infleuence ever again. Lewis revealed his secrets behind how his digivolving abilities to Izzy later that night. Overnight, Lewis's secret regret, the thing that kept him from true focus and ultimate power, was revealed to Araiya. We learned from the Marines that they were planning to raid the future and wipe the past at the same time, which was why time was repeating itself. A diversionary army was sent out to stop up, but with the combined forces of Mimi, Paladingreymon, DaoGarurumon, Archangemon, Saintangemon, and Andromon Warp Digivolving to his Mega level of Xaviomon, we leveled the army in plenty of time to travel back ahead of them. Araiya, Lewis, Joe, thier digimon, and me came to the past, where we helped to stop an assasaination attempt on Mimi when she was in Toy Town. She somehow did most of the work herself when she gave Togemon the strength to digivolve to Lilymon, well before her previously known time. Afterwards, we had to stop them from trying the same thing to Matt & Tai when they were first separated on the tundra section of File Island. Lewis, trying to obscure his sight after Gabumon removed his fur, inadvertently defeated Mojyamon, who was supposed to fight them. Lewis and I were able to salvage the gear and the day when it accidently hit Frigimon. Meanwhile, in the future, Tai was sent to what seemed an alternate timeline. After meeting the future Digidestined in the Full Metal City, he shocked the Digimon Emperor when he leveled his forces with no effort what so ever. The rift that was the gate that sent him there reopened, sending Miyako and Hawkmon, as well as Tai to the coordinates he was originally supposed to arrive at. Things didn't look so good for them when they found out they couldn't Warp Digivolve or Terravolve there. Things grew worse when Digitamamon integrated himself into a Xenozobimon to become a Giga level Wraith Digimon called Darklichemon. The battles though were enough to level enough Control Spires to let Metalgreymon Terravolve and stop his reinfocements. His Light of Judgement not only stopped the reinforcements, but helped give the enslaved humans and digimon below us the edge they needed to escape. That's when Gabumon told them that they had been had, used to give the Overlords access to a future Rebellion's high tech gear. They regrouped with us on a lakeshore in Server, just before the remaining kids found Sora. They decide to finish it themselves and use Sora to fire a heavy energy cannon at them. Lewis ran out like a fool and nearly got himself killed trying to defend Lilymon. If it wasn't for NeptuneZudomon, we'd have a Lewis pin-cushion right now. Lewis was able to Warp Digivolve to Hypertomorrowsapien, but was too weak to use his full strenght. He was able to send Lucimon away by destroying his legs by continuously hurling his boomerangs at them. By the time he tried to come and help us, he was so weak that the Digimon Emperor could beat him up. Lilymon took him to safety while we fought a losing battle. Sora was ready to shoot me when the primary control signal was knocked out. She was filled with memories of her past, and she then broke the Emperor's control of her, and used the Shard lodged in her hand to make me Terravolve to my Terra level of Patriotaviamon, where I smacked the surprised NeoApocalymon around and made him run, but not before he used a disc-shooting weapon to extract a small amount of blood from each of us except Patamon and Tentomon. We returned to our time to find Lilymon receiving us. Lewis woke up long enough to acknowledge her and then pass out before her. If you ask, I think it's great having Sora back. By the way, why do I think Lewis is in love? Oh, I out of breath..... (gasp, gasp)...."

Several hours have passed. They are in a large condo-like suite. Lilymon says to them all, "Well, you're probably wondering where you are. You are in the hidden city of Serenity on the continent of Network, one of the new land masses to emerge from the sea. It ties in to how I ended up here." Lewis enters, patched up. He sits beside Lilymon. "Good thing you're here, Lewis. I was going to explain to everyone how I got here. Well, Tai & Sora, Lewis, Oswald, Mimi, Yokomon, you all remember the glowing knife and the surge of light. The light struck at 5 AM, the time that I took control of Lewis's body. During this period same period though, the light intersected with us, and Mimi was horribly wounded and burned. Since I noticed that we were being separated, I knew that she wouldn't survive the trauma, so I gave up my body to save hers. I thought for sure I was going back to Primary Village, but instead, I encountered the beings that possessed Kari, in their true form. They told me, 'Because of your willingness to gie up your life to help a friend, and our need for a leader of the newly established haven of Serenity in the Digital World, we have decided to name you that leader.' For which I asked, 'How, I'm data now, just like you, waiting to be formatted at the Primary Village?' They said, 'Our power is great. We can use our strenght to restor your life, and you will retain your present level and power. You will also have acute telepathic abilities with the one you call Mimi. Please use them only when necessary. Go now. Guard Serenity. It will the last safe haven for humans and digimon alike if the Digidestined fail in stopping the Overlords.' When I woke up, I found myself in this apartment, in that bed, still Lilymon, and with all you see here." "All that matters is that you're safe." Lewis says. "Lewis, you didn't have to go out of your way to save me like you did." she says. "I know. I just felt, obligated to, like losing you was my fault, and I had to avenge that." He answers back. Lilymon takes and runs her fingers through his hair. "Well, still, I like the noble sentiment." Everyone looks at them. "Where was I? Oh, yes, This city is a sanctuary for many digimon, mostly champions and ultimates. You've noticed the varying archetechure. Some of the best building concepts, both in safety and beauty, were chosen to make up this city. The dome is a holographic emitter that projects the illusion of more mountains where the city is. In fact, there is no safe land route in or out. You have to either go through the air and get clearence, or take the caves, of which they are mostly submerged, or just take the sea inlet, but none of you, except Gomamon, could hold their breath for the lenght of time it takes to travel the inlet. Besides, there's a wild and savage sea digimon that attacks the inlet occisionally. That's why when we find digimon who can't fly or swim, we have problems. So far, the problem hasn't arose yet. As for the city, it spans 7/8's of this whole valley, and an additional living area being built off the coast, about 600 feet under on an area called the Gold Reef by the natives. The digimon vary greatly here. We mostly have flying and swimming Digimon, like in the populace there are a few Bakemon, reformed, of course, some Gomamon, a few Ikkakumon, a Gesomon, 10 or so Ebidramon, some Snimon, just to mention a few you know of. Oh, did I menton who the Vice President and the other office holders of this colony was? They also got the same deal as I did, but after they asked me. Wanna meet them?" Everyone says, "Sure!! Let's go!!" Everyone goes out. Lilymon orders two Secret Service agents to stay and guard her room. "So, you already have humans here?" Izzy says to Lilymon. "Yeah, it's easier for humans to be brought in. Just give them an air tank, and an escort, and they can go through the caves easily. But so far there are only a few, and then it's hard to find ones who consent to come here." They all arrive at the Capitol Building, a structure with Roman pillars, modern lighting and interior, and a mostly Japanese outside and doors, with a river through it in one area. "Because of the Overlords, life had to be restored hastily. Many of our old friends were reborn, and many have been able to return to their old level. After the last battle I had with the Ovelords, which was your first, a new type of Ultimate digimon, called Adrenomon, were created. They took and recreated Primary Village here, which we call Secondary Village. They were mutated digimon smilar to Nanimon whos digiegges were in the initial shock wave and survived the force, and then hatched, pre-digivolved. They saw the destruction, and knew they had to move the Village, but the Village was too big. A beacon of sorts that has been here ever since we got here activated and somehow telepathically pursuaded them to move the digieggs here. Elecmon wasn't very cooperative, but once they brought him to Serenity and met me, he calmed down. After building Secondary Village here, they returned to guard Primary Village. That's how many of our friends ended up here." Lilymon dispenses. "Wow, a history lesson. Just what I want, more education." Oswald laments. They enter an office area with a giant pool and access to the river. The room seems to be over 1000 foot long in either direction. On the hardwood area is a Numemon at a typewriter. "That's the VP?" Sora asks. "No, I'm his secretary. Pays good though." the Numemon looking up. Something comes up out of the water. The digimon chuckles, "Well, I'll be. Never though I'd see you guys again." Tai looks at him squarely, "Hey, it's Whamon!!" "Yup, I'm the VP, and if you want to know, I'm 100% Republican." Whamon answers back. "Did I ever say that you're my favorite digimon? By the way, do you happen to know where I could find a Mr. Jefferson, or maybe Mr. Franklin?" Lewis sweet talks. "No, I'm not THAT type of Republican, so don't expect any kickbacks or Vice Presidental favors from me, so stop sucking up, whoever you were." Whamon commented. "Well, I tried. At least you're not a Democrat." Lewis utters in defeat. "Mental Note: Don't let Lewis sweet talk anyone else." Matt says. Everybody laughs at his comment. "Well, time for me to get back to work. Zzzzz......." Whamon falls asleep. "It's good to be the VP!!" Oswald says aloud. They leave and go to a meeting room. Inside is Wizardmon, Monzaemon, Elecmon, Centaurumon, Deramon, Frigimon, and 3 unknown digimon. Lewis and Yokomon start to slide back out of the room when they see Frigimon. Sora turns arounds and requests, "Where are you going, you two?" "Uh.., we well, accidently threw a black gear at Frigimon." they answer back. Frigimon looks over. "Eep." they peep. They bolt. As they run down the hall, three digimon block them off at a bridge. "Freeze right there. This is a restricted area." Lewis and Yokomon stop, but trip and fall off the sides into the water. "I told them that we need guard rails on these bridges." one of them says. Lewis and Yokomon start sinking like rocks since they can't swim. Then, unknown digimon swam up and towed them up to the surface. The guards from the bridge jump in the water and helped them up. "What were you guys doing?" all of them asked. "First, who are you guys?" Lewis says, coughing. The guards answer, "We're Aquagullmon, an aquatic fowl digimon. We are the perfect guards for Serenity, since we can swim and fly. Our Typhoon Wing can wash anything away." The digimon in the water climb up onto the bridge. Lewis looks at them. They have blonde hair on their beautiful heads and a long purplish fish tail for a bottom half of body. "You look like mermaids." "Close," one of them says, "We're related. We're Sirenamon, Ultimate level digimon of the Water element. Like Lilymon, we too are Nymphs, but she is a Flower Nymph, whereas we are Water Nymphs, relatives to the Merfolk digimon who inhabit the area. Our Siren Song can cause major sea storms and even bring weaker Digimon to our beck and call." Yokomon finishes up, "Well, we might as well answer your question. Well see, we did something to Frigimon a long time ago..." Frigimon and the others arrived at the bridge. "Let me guess, you're the reason I had a second black gear put in me?" Lewis and Yokomon duck behind a Aquagullmon. "Yes." they peep in cowarice. Frigimon lifts his fist up, but it is caught by Lilymon. "Joe's already explained that was an accident, and if they hadn't of done it, the timeline wouldn't be the same. Besides, it was a while ago. So let's all go back to the Cabinet Hall and talk like ciilized digimon." "Oh, okay." Frigimon says. They all return to Cabinet Hall, where after Lewis and Yokomon dried off, the tour continued. "Wizardmon is the Secretary of Education, Monzaemon is Secretary of Morale, Frigimon is Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Elecmon is Secretary of Health and Serenity's Surgeon General, Centaurumon is Secretary of the Treasury and Defense, and Deramon is our Secretary of Labor. As for these three, this is Nauticawomon, an Ultimate level Merfolk digimon who is our Secretary of State. Over here is Talonmon, a samurai-like falcon digimon who is our Secretary of Domestic Affairs, and this is Bengoshimon, he is one of our court judges. I really don't know why he's here." Peyotemon sneezes. Tentomon says, "Gesunheit!!" A Numemon hands her a clipboard. "Oh, yes, he's that 8 o' clock I remember hearing about. He wanted to meet with us about how we can see if we can get the humans here more involved in the government......." Alarms go off. Rock falls from above and ground shakes. Everyone runs down a few corridors following Lilymon. She meets these Bakemon. "Report?!" The head Bakemon answers, "An army of robots, led a man in a plane and 10 kids with 9 digimon," he stops and points at them. ", who look just like them, except they all the boys except their leader have jet black hair and the girls all have blonde hair, and all of them have leather suits on." "We got to check this out!!" Matt yells. "Follow me. There's a secret cave exit that you can use. It takes you out to one of the cliffs." Lilymon mentions. They run up a hill to a guard station. She opens the vault door to the cave with her Presidential Keycard. Outside, they see what the Bakemon was talking about. Over a loudspeaker, Col. Spencer's voice boomed. "Well, well, well. If it isn't the snot-nosed who almost got me courtmartialed. Fortunately, I have the president under my thumb, and instead got promoted. Well, it's time for me to take you out." One of the figures walks up. It's the Tai clone, his hair was blood-red (a.k.a. Crimson), with an Agumon clone beside him. Over his shoulders were black shoulder plates and chest plates and black armbands. "Wait, we'll take care of them. You go and help the Zybots." "Okay, but leave that cat.... Gatomon, for me. I'm going to love torturing her." Col. Spencer flies his Harrier over to a raging fight at the base of the mountains. "What the!!!" the real Tai exclaims. "Allow us to introduce you to those that will undo you. I'm Tamiko. I possess the Crest of Cowardice and the Shard of Knavery. This over here is Metzger (Plates are yellow), and he has the Crest of Loneliness and the Shard of Betrayal. The girl over there is Cora (Plates are sea green/teal), and she has the Crest of Hatred and the Shard of Tyranny. Next to her is Shapiro (Plates are Green), no relation to Robert Shapiro. He has the Crest of Ignorance. Over there is Mai (Plates are Cobalt), and she possesses the Crest of Conceit and the Shard of Futility. Joining us is Tanaki (Plates are Blue), whom has the Crest of Despair. We call him TK for short," "Hey, that's my name!!" TK yells. "Shut up, you insolent brat!!" Tanaki yells, throwing a rock at him. Patamon flies up and catches the rock. "Now, I'll continue." Tamiko answers, "Over there wearing the shades is Moe (Plates are Grey), and he has the Crest of Negligence. Beside him is Ariel (Plates are Red), and she has the Crest of Apathy. Next to her holding the minigun and battle axe is Drew (Plates are Gold). He has the Crest of Chaos." "All I need now is to meet a girl named Kate and we can be the real life version of the Drew Carey Show. Let me clarify. Me Lewis, last name Wick, as in Mr. Wick. You're Oswald. My clone is Drew. This is Mimi, but a lot skinnier than the Drew Carey Show's Mimi Bobeck, and who's missing?" "Ahh, great, you ruined the surprise. She's Kate (Plates are Teal). She also has the Crest of Hatred." He points to Miyako's clone. "So the Overlords do have a sense of humor." Lewis remarks. Oswald says. "Hey, let's go to Cleveland, buy a golden retriever named Speedy, and sue ABC into the ground for back royalties!!" Drew says, "Not right now. Besides, we got to destroy you and stuff now, so don't hold this against us when we file the lawsuit." Tamiko looks over at them, "We'll speed dial Johnny Cocharan later. Mind letting me finish?" "Whatever." Lewis says. "Now, you know the Rookie digimon Agumon, Gabumon, Biyomon, Palimon, Gomamon, Hawkmon, and the Champion Andromon. I'll even bet you know of Demidevimon." Demidevimon pops up from behind Tanaki. "I told you I'd be back. Myotismon, you're a traitor to all evil. You're just like that furball Gatomon!!" Demidevimon yells out. "Hey, you be quiet, you cream puff with wings." Gatomon calls back. "SHUT UP ALL OF YOU!!!!!! IT"S TIME IN THE SPOTLIGHT. MY TIME!!!! SO SHUT UP!!!" Tamiko screams at the top of his lungs. Everyone looks at him. "That's better. Shapiro's digimon is a delight from your past. What's grey, stupid, and looks like a killer bunny? Well??? ANSWER ME!!!!" No one answers. Matt says, "Uh, I'm totally guessing, but that Gazimon sitting in front of Shapiro is a big hint. Next time you give a riddle, be sure the answer isn't in plain sight." "How dare you insult my intelligence!! Hurt him!!" the evil Agumon prepares to fire a Pepper Breath when Tai punches Tamiko. "Quit pummeling me. It really, really hurts!!" "Call him off!!" Tai yells. "Okay, you win." Agumon stops. Metzger slaps his forehead. "You idiot!! Surrendering already.... Alright, who had 2 minutes?" all the evil ones pull out raffle tickets. Mimi whispers to Sora, "Boy, my clone looks good. Maybe I should dye my hair blonde. This green is so bold. I'd look so good in leather." Sora whispers back, "I'm glad you ditched the dress. I didn't have the heart to say it earlier, but your dress totally sucked. Keep the hair. It signifies your individuality. Besides, you know what they say about blondes...." Izzy walks up. "Hate to interrupt your fashion talk, but where's Tentomon?" Sora says, "I haven't seen him." Moe yells out, "I do!! I do!!" Metzger looks at it. "Pay up, everyone." the evil kids and digimon pay Moe. The evil Gabumon attacks Tai. Oswald says, "This shouldn't be hard. We outnumber them 23 to 19." "Like, 27 to 19, man." Peyotemon yells out them, accompanied by Wizardmon, Piximon, and Frigimon. Peyotemon counts again. "Okay. That's right. Uhh.... Cool." Metzger yells out, "Digimon, digivolve!!"

"Agumon digivolve to Greymon!!"

"Greymon corrupt digivolve to Skullgreymon!!"

"Gabumon digivolve to Garurumon!!"

"Garurumon corrupt digivolve to Crimsongarurumon!!"

"Biyomon digivolve to Birdramon!!"

"Birdramon corrupt digivolve to Psychobirdramon!!"

"Gazimon digivolve to Haerdramon!!"

"Haerdramon digivolve to Elechaerdramon!!"

"Palimon digivolve to Togemon!!"

"Togemon corrupt digivolve to Venomtogemon!!"

"Gomamon digivolve to Ikkakumon!!"

"Ikkakumon corrupt digivolve to Swampmon!!"

"Demidevimon digivolve to Devimon!!"

"Devimon digivolve to Magnadevimon!!"

"Andromon corrupt digivolve to Borgdromon!!"

"DigiArmor Corruption!!"

"Drew, Ninth Anti-Digidestined Armor Digivolve to Daimyosapien!!"

"Daimyosapien Demi Corrupt to Rogue Sapien!!"

"Hawkmon Armor Digivolve to Chimeramon, The Talons of Hate!!"

"Chimeramon corrupt digivolve to Jimeramon, Legendary Hatred!!"

"Is it just me, or did they just digivolve horrible, psychotic monsters?" Joe panics. "Time to respond in kind!!" Matt yells.

"Gabumon digivolve to Garurumon!!"

"Garurumon digivolve to Weregarurumon!!"

"Yokomon digivolve to Biyomon!!"

"Biyomon digivolve to Birdramon!!"

"Birdramon digivolve to Garudamon!!"

"Patamon digivolve to Angemon!!"

"Angemon digivolve to Magnaangemon!!"

"Gatomon digivolve to Angewomon!!"

"Technomon digivolve to Andromon!!"

"Andromon digivolve to NeoAndromon!!"

"Hawkmon, your Armor Digivolving isn't as advanced as that phony. Try regular digivolving!!" Miyako yells out.

"Hawkmon digivolve to Aquillamon!!"

"Aquillamon digivolve to Talonmon!!"

"DigiArmor Energize!!"

"Lewis, Ninth Digidestined Armor Digivolve to Daimyosapien!!"

"Daimyosapien Demi Digivolve to Samurisapien!!"

"Samurisapien Focus Digivolve to Hypersapien!!"

"Um, ya know, it isn't as clear cut as Oswald made it seem. Botemon and Pichimon still haven't digivolved and Tentomon is AWOL. This is going to be an interesting battle." Lewis blurts out. Tamiko yells out from the ground, "Hurt them, hurt them, save me, save me!!" Digidestined and Digimon alike charged into battle. The extra digimon attempted to combat Skullgreymon. A barrage of attacks starts the mayhem.

"Peyote Spores!!" Peyote chanted.

"Magical Game!!"

"Sub-Zero Ice Punch!!"

"Hit Bomb!!"

"Flower Cannon!!"

"Noble Edge!!"

"Wolf Claw!!"

"Wing Blade!!"

"Flower Staff!!"

"Gate of Destiny!!"

"Celestial Arrow!!"

"Fist Missiles!!"

"Scrameaxe Feather!!" Talonmon yelled.

"Masamune Thrust!!"

"Demon Inferno!!" howled Crimsongarurmon.

"Acid Cannon!!" Venomtogemon spewed.

"Quantum Bolt!!" muttered Elechaerdramon.

"Claws of the Swamp Beast!!" bellowed Swampmon.

"Gears of Despair!!" cried out Magnadevimon.

"Nanite Assault!!" emotionlessly spoke Borgdromon.

"Chaotic Thrashing!!" screamed Drew.

"Boiling Brimstone!!" called Jimeramon.

The other corrupt digimon had no speech capibility and pea-sized brains so they aimlessly attacked with Dark Shot and bone claw boomerangs. The explosions caused by the attacks nearly collapsed the cave. The digimon and digidestined began to all-out brawl. Matt fighting Metzger, Sora fighting Cora, Izzy fighting Shapiro, Joe fighting Moe, TK fighting Tanaki, Kari fighting Mai, Lewis fighting Drew, Araiya fighting Ariel, and Miyako fighting Kate. Tamiko ran off and hid behind a boulder. Tai was left to stand there with Botemon and Pichimon in his arms. For the digimon, Wizardmon and Piximon worked over Skullgreymon, Weregarurumon fought Crimsongarurumon, Garudamon and Viscountmyotismon fought Psychobirdramon, Mimi fought Venomtogemon, Peyotemon and Angewomon combatted Elechaerdramon, Lilymon tangled with Swampmon, Magnaangemon faced Magnadevimon, NeoAndromon and Elecmon engaged Borgdromon, and Talonmon wrestled with Jimeramon. For reasons unknown, the Anti-Digidestined seemed to pummel them as though they were pinned to the wall, unable to stop them, and with incredible strenght. This travesty of a fight went on for minutes. Then the bad news came. "Let's kick it to high gear, everyone!!" Cora yelled. The three evil amulet-wearing kids still there held there amulets.

"THE SHARD OF FUTILITY!!"
"THE SHARD OF BETRAYAL!!"
"THE SHARD OF TYRANNY!!"

"Venomtogemon Dark Terravolve to Golgothamon, Executioner of Martyrs!!"

"Crimsongarurumon Dark Terravolve to Bakkaigarurumon, Demon Dog of Acheron!!"

"Psychobirdramon Dark Terravolve to Tyranoravemon, Oppressor of Freedom!!"

"Toxic Wasteland!!" Golgothamon yells.

"Vampiric Pounce!!" screams Bakkaigarurumon.

"Iron Fist!!" chants Tyranoravemon.

Everyone is reduced to the level they started at by a Weregarumon-like digimon, except he is black and crimson, and has long vampiric fangs, a digimon who looked like a zombified cross between Metalgreymon and Togemon, with elements of Garbagemon included and toxic waste oozing all over her, and a raven in a military uniform carrying multitudes of big guns, and wearing an iron gauntlet on her left arm. Lewis runs over to catch the falling Lilymon. "You okay?" Lewis asks. "Oh, it's just a cut. I'm okay. Not to sound inconsiderate, but you need to handle the situation at hand." "Yes, Lilymon." He lays her in Wizardmon's arms and stands before them. "I hereby challenge all of you." he calls out. The evil Terras laugh. "A puny hu-mahn. Hah, don't waste our time." Bakkaigarurumon says. "Puny is only in the eye of the beholder." Pichimon and Technomon grow stronger. Peyotemon decides to buy them time, so he charges out.

"Serum of Sweet Surrender!!"

The bubble was deflected by Tyrannoravemon and it hits Lewis. Spitting, "Ugh, this tastes nasty, and I hope it doesn't stain my clothes. Gotta focus, gotta focus....." Pichimon says, "Joe, I can digivolve now." Andromon concurs and says the same about himself.

"Pichimon digivolve to Bukamon!!"

"Bukamon digivolve to Gomamon!!"

"Gomamon Warp Digivolve to NorseZudomon!!"

"NorseZudomon Warp Digivolve to NeptuneZudomon!!"

"Andromon Warp Digivolve to Xaiomon!!"

"DigiArmor Optimize!!"

"Lewis, Ninth Digidestined Armor Warp Digivolve to Hypertomorrowsapien!!"

Wizardmon, holding Lilymon, says, "Here is his true power." Tai requests, "Where?" "In my arms." Tai looks at Lilymon, who sits there watching Lewis. Lewis pulls out a gargantuan lightsaber from.... nowhere, and proceeds to charge.

"Hypertomorrowsapien Blade!!"

"Ballistic Missile Barrage!!"

"Zudo Hailstorm!!"

The combined power reverts Tyranoravemon to Yokomon. "His energy levels continue to build." Xaviomon takes a walloping by Bakkaigarurumon. Then he digs his claws into his armor. "Don't give up, Xaviomon. I'm counting on you. Everyone is counting on you. Please respond..." Bakkaigarurumon smacks her, throwing her into the other kids. "Now I feast on this metal bounty.... WHAT!!" Xaviomon starts glowing.

"Triple Claw Grenades!!"

"Bakkai Blitz!!"

The two cancel out. "I know you can do it!!" Araiya yells. Bakkaigarurumon tries to jump Xavimon from behind, but Araiya yells out, "Look out behind you, Xaviomon!!" He sidesteps out of his way. Xaviomon calls out at Bakkaigarurumon, "I will never let you near them as long as I function....."

"Xaviomon Warp Digivolve to AlcyaidXaviomon!!"

"Raging Maverick!!" AlcyaidXaviomon acknowledges.

The glowing cluster missile strikes Bakkaigarurumon. He is nearly knocked off the mountain. Lewis whips out a second lightsaber.

"Warp Clash!!" Lewis screams.

Bakkaigarurumon falls off the mountain after taking 42 hits in 3 seconds. "That's it for him....." Lewis utters, then turning around to find him flying at him. Wizardmon says, "His energy level just hit 100%!!" Lewis starts pulsating. He links his sabers together at the ends. Bakkaigarurumon pounces.

"Vampiric Pounce!!"

Just as he is about to stick his claws and fangs into his meat, Lewis throws him with tremendous force. A cyclone of silver light whirls around him. A flash of light occurs.

"Omega Silver: Hypertomorrowsapien Elementals!!"

Instead of the standard four base elements whirling from the blades in the normal Hypertomorrowsapien Elementals, storm clouds form in the sky, the earth rumbles, everything starts glowing, thunder, rain, and hurricane force winds blow everywhere. Meteors of pure plasma strike down the area. Leaves blew all around him. The rain hitting the mountain freezes. Columns of light strq down from through the clouds. Beams of energy from each element converged on Lewis as he hovered. He started spinning the blades. Rocks started flying up, smashing Bakkaigarurumon and Golgothamon. Araiya runs to AlcyaidXaviomon, scared "I'm afraid of all this. Protect me." AlcyaidXaviomon says to her, "Climb in." "What?!" "I am all machine now, so inside of me is a compartment. This compartment can house one person, and they sit sheltered from harm." His chest folds down, his arms swing behind him, and his back bends back. Araiya jumps in. AlcyaidXaviomon closes over her. A metallic seat belt wraps across her chest and waist. Video screens turn on. Next to her is a blue lever. "When absolutely necessary, when the time arises where I am too weak to move on my own, I will tell you to pull the blue lever. It will give you manual override of my motor functions. If I become severely damaged and I can't eject you safely, pull the red lever. It will remove my back and eject your seat, much like an ejection seat on airplanes." AlcyaidXaviomon tells Araiya. "Wow, my own armored transport!! This is so cool!!" Lewis continues to build energy. "Ya know what? I like the special effects, but I'm tired of him. ATTACK!!" Metzger says.

"Bakkai Blitz!!"

"Quantum Bolt!!"

"Poisons of Mankind!!"

"Claws of the Swamp Beast!!"

"Gears of Despair!!"

"Nanite Assault!!"

"Chaotic Thrashing!!"

"Seething Venom!!"

Every attack is deflected by an intense electrical storm. Suddenly, a voice, sounding like someone talking through a bullhorn is heard as his swords turn faster and faster.

"5... 4... 3... 2... 1...!!"

Rocks flying up start hitting everyone. A final flash occurs.

"Omega Silver Attack Initiate!!"

A beam of electrified light 3x the size of Lewis flies out in front of him. "Let's help out!!" NeptuneZudomon barely could yell over the roaring sound.

"Poseidon's Trident!!"

"Quartz Lasers!!"

From the rock barrages, lightning strikes, freezing rain, and the main beam, all the evil digimon revert to their training level except Demidevimon. Bakkaigarurumon, already weak, is vaporized by the blast. Flails of energy surging start lashing out from Lewis and continue the punishment, but they also are hitting his friends. Sora's left arm is hit and burned, made useless. AlcyaidXaviomon and Araiya were the only ones not hit. Parts of the mountain start collapsing, and then he stops, falls to the ground, reverts to normal, and falls into a comatose-like state of sleep. Lilymon gets up and picks him and carries him out of the way. When the light clears, all of the kids are wounded, along with their digimon. Lucimon, his legs regenerated, and Nosferatumon. Lucimon started clapping. "Wow. That was good. All was good, the Anti-Digidestined proved their usefulness, and he spoiled it with some super attack. Didn't expect that. Now if you don't mind." He gathers the injured Anti-Digidestined. "I'm not here to fight you, doctor's orders, but he is. Smell you later." Nosferatumon shoots forth at AlcyaidXaviomon!!

"Alcedes Claw!!"

"Plague Fist!!"

The bolt like claw shot from his left hand splits in half against Nosferatmon's fist. The punch sends him sliding back. Part of his chest was rusted. AlcyaidXaviomon pulls out a double-sided battle axe with a shortened handle.

"NeoTech Tomahawk!!"

He hurls the axe. It begins to burn at super high temperatures. The axe hits its mark and lands in his shoulder. A chain ejects from the axe and lands in AlcyaidXaviomon's right hand. He pulls the chain, pulling Nosferatumon. He flies towards AlcyaidXaviomon's six-barrelled, four clawed left forearm. The barrels start turning.

"Sonic Vulcan!!"

Nosferatumon takes advantage of his proximity and uses Death and Decay. AlcyaidXaviomon's left arm rusts up and falls off. "Crtical Damage: Left Arm!!" he says. "Power Levels @ 16% and Falling. Ejection Suggested." Araiya says, "I'm not about to abandon you just yet." she pulls the blue lever. Sleeves of metal and cloth wrapped over her arms. Controls pop out the ends. Her seat folds away and braces wrap around her ankles. On one of the screens, it says, "Manual Override Engaged!!" "Let's see what I can do."

"Quartz Lasers!!"

She fires off his shoulder and chest-mounted crystalline lasers and put some distance between her and Nosferatumon. She has AlcyaidXaviomon pick up his rusted arm and run back to the cave. "Open hatch and Disengage Manual Override!!" she says with authority. She exits and he reverts to his training level of Cymon. "You didn't have to do that. Could you listen to me next time, Araiya?" he says. "Well, I couldn't leave you to get thrashed by Mr. Cryptkeeper back there, could I?"

Back outside, NeptuneZudomon was fending off Nosferatumon when he hits him with a Wall of the Undead and send him back to Bukamon, with some of his muscle and skin necrotized (Dead or dying). "Alright, time to do what we should of done from the start." Mimi utters.

"THE SHARD OF MARTYRDOM!!"

"THE SHARD OF TRUST!!"
"THE SHARD OF LIBERTY!!"

"Dryadsapia Terravolve to Gaiasapia, Avenger of Martyrs!!"

"Tsunomon Terravolve to DaoGarurumon, Entrusted Gatekeeper of Time!!"

"Yokomon Terravolve to Patriotaviamon, Patriot & Revolutionary!!"

"Rain of Blossoms!!"

"Blitzkrieg Claw!!"

"Patriot Missile!!"

The attacks throw Nosferatumon through a cracked wall in the mountain. An avalanche of boulders crush him. "It's over. We beat an Overlord!!" Tai yells out, only to be surprised when he bursts out from the earth. "If I'm going down, then I'll just take someone with me." He looks at Lilymon and Lewis.

"Death and Decay!!"

Lewis, still in his coma-like state, raises his arm up and just points to an open field. The attack narrowly misses them and heads for the field. Lewis then mumbles, which for someone in a coma-like state, is a miracle in itself, "Nobody hurts the one I love." Then he goes back to his sleep state. "What!! I will not be denied!!" he raises his hand to attack, and the others block him.

"Wall of the Undead!!"

"Atlas Barrage!!"

"Magnum Ice!!" DaoGarurumon says, firing his .357's

"Minuteman Cutlass!!"

"Viscount Bolt!!"

"Thunderball!!"

"Flower Cannon!!"

"Sub-Zero Ice Punch!!"

"Super Thunder Strike!!"

"Hit Bomb!!"

"Cannabis Leaves!!" Peyotemon yells.

The combined force caused a devastating explosion, causing more avalanches and DaoGarurumon reverting to Tsunomon and Patriotaviamon reverting to Yokomon. Mimi reverted to Lilysapia. Everyone laid there on the ground for nearly a minute, when Nosferatumon got back up and charged up. "Now we finish it." Sora says, "This can't be how it all ends...." A bloody Tauromon runs up to Nosferatumon. "Sir... (Cough, Wheeze)... We've been decimated (Barfing)...." "WHAT!!" Nosferatumon bellows. "A dragon with a giant metal plate on its chest, hooking over its shoulders, with a pinkish purple gem in the center of that plate.... (Cough)... Inside thhat gem was an amulet that looked like... ", He points at the Crest of Knowledge. "And it had red-violet scales, and 12 hole-filled leathery feathers of sorts fused to the ends of its wings attacked us with fire and lighning unlike anything we have ever seen before. He.... (Coughing, Wheezing).... leveled most of us in the blink of an eye. He's on... his... (Cough, Wheeze)... way." The Tauromon disintegrates. Then the dragon arises. "I am not afraid of a... miniscule... dragon....." he looks in fear as he sees from head to tail he is over 450 feet long, standing he is 360 feet tall (In other words, he's 36 stories tall). On the ends of his wings, where the feathers meet the wings, two metal plates start spinning. A mighty dragon roar could be heard as the plates fired off emmense voltage. Nosferatumon is cooked. "Lilymon, do you know who or what this dragon is?" Tai yells. "No, I've never seen him before in my life." Lilymon says back. "I may have an idea, but now's not the time for talk." Wizardmon calls out. The dragon pounds Nosferatumon into the earth. He stands on him and spews sulfury fire down upon as he stands on him. He throws him up using his powerful arms and snaps him in half in his jaws. "Is this the end to poor Nosferatumon?" Nosferatumon says, disintegrating, but instead of his remnents vanishing, they speed off into the distance, towards the flying island. "Now there's just 6 more!!" Tai says. The dragon though, decides he needs a reward, so he takes and flies over and scoops up Izzy and Kari into his talons. Nyaramon jumps up after them and the dragon grabs her in his right claw and flies off towards a remote island barely visible from the mountain. The mountainside and cliff altogether begin to quake. "Quick, back inside everyone!!" Lilymon yells, carrying Lewis. "But what about Izzy and Kari?" Tai yells. "We can't help them if we're not alive ourselves." Matt says to him. Matt and Sora drag him in. Mimi flies over to where Izzy was abducted and sees his laptop there. "Gotcha!! You're too valuable to lose." The entire cliffside collapses from all the battle damage. Going in, Lilymon looks around to see if any damage came to the city. "Who made that hole in the dome?"

The next day, Lilymon and the others gather at the Serenity Medical Center. Elecmon comes out. "It doesn't look good. That uncontrolled surge of energy he unleashed on the mountain caused some intense muscle and bone damage. I figure that because of his undisciplined skills, it caused much harm to himself. That muscle relaxer/truth serum Peyotemon used didn't help either." "Isn't there anything we can do?" Lilymon says. "A Life digimon could accellerate the healing rate, but they can't heal this level of trauma unless they were a Giga who has had Life powers all their life. He'll be here at least a week, if we can find a Life digimon, that is." Elecmon finishes. "Well, I do have powerful Life abilities. I have brought him back from the dead before." Mimi says. "Okay, you prep. As for Sora, the procedure you told me this Digimon Emperor did on her was a marvel of bio-robotics, or cybernetics if you will. Now though, the strike to her arm has caused the organic and technological to turn on each other and start fighting one another. She will require an operation to purge all the organic material from her left arm if we are to save it. If we don't, the fighting will progress all over her body as the technological will consume the iron in her blood to reproduce, trying to consume her. The only person who would know how to do save her arm as is is the Digimon Emperor. Sora has OK'ed the proceedure and she'll be able to leave about the same time as Lewis. Well, I gotta get back to Secondary Village now." He goes back down the hall and gets on an elevator. Mimi, Tai, Botemon, Matt, Tsunomon, and Lilymon go into Lewis's room. "Well, here goes."

"THE SHARD OF MARTYRDOM!!"

"Lilysapia Terravolve to Gaiasapia, Avenger of Martyrs!!"

"Gaia's Touch!!"

Lewis starts glowing. His skin looks healthier. His eyes open. Botemon looks up at Tai. "I can feel my strenght returning, Tai." Botemon says.

"Botemon digivolve to Koromon!!"

"Tsunomon digivolve to Gabumon!!"

A nurse walks in. "Uh, we could use your help. That Bukamon has gotten worse. Everyone leaves except Lilymon. "How did you save us?" she says. Lewis, with barely the strenght to lift his arm, grabs her left hand and caresses it. "Love can do strange things to a person." "But you were comatose, well, sort of." she says back to him. "I made a vow long ago, that when I found love, to protect it until death, and beyond. I didn't want to end up like most people today, letting love get hurt or flee, and ending up lonely. When I first lost you, I thought I had failed that vow, and my mind stayed troubled by that. But when I found you again, I was so happy. Besides, I could still hear everything that was going on. My burst of strenght left me with enough strenght to defend myself one more time." he says. "But you saved me instead." Lilymon mentions, fighting off tears. The nurse comes back in. "Madam President, the patient needs to rest now." "Okay." She gets up, kisses Lewis on the cheek, and leaves.

Back at the apartment building where Lilymon lives (We'll call it the Presidential Tower from now on), arrangements were made for each kid to get their own room with their digimon. After getting a bath, and despoiting their stuff, they convened in Lilymon's room. "Do any of you know how the Overlords cloned you?" Lilymon asked. They sat and pondered, then Miyako answers, "I know!! That disc shooter he used on wasn't a weapon at all, it was a gene extractor of some sort. Why else would he fire just one volley, have it cut us, and then signal the discs to return and flee. He wanted our blood and skin cells so he could make evil clones. That also explains why there is no Tentomon, Kari, or Gatomon clone. They were never hit." TK adds in, "But why did my clone have Demidevimon instead of Patamon?" Mimi, fiddling with Izzy's laptop, says, "Because Patamons have corruption immunity. Instead of becoming some monstrosity, they just don't digivolve. Apparently they knew this and tried to find and opposite to Patamon. Who better than Demidevimon. Patamon = Angemon. Demidevimon = Devimon. Angels and Devils are absolute opposites." Matt scratches his head surprise and dumbfoundment. "I'm just never going to get used to her being so much more smarter than she used to be." Just then a transmission came in on the laptop. "Hey, it's Genai & Jake!!" she says. Genai's face pops up and it shows him and Jake held up in an office building, Jake guarding the elevator with an AK-47. "I was expecting Izzy, but you'll have to do." Genai says. "Hey, insulting people isn't nice." Mimi says back. "Sorry. I got to tell you what's going on." He continues. "Okay, but just because Izzy isn't here doesn't mean you get to dumb down the message. Tell us as though Izzy was here." Mimi adds on. "Well, we came to Camp David, but found it vacated. Then we were ambushed by Marines and Secret Service. Jake fought out of it and dragged me along. We carjacked one of those Army Jeeps and fled to Annapolis, where we have been held up for 5 days now." "Who wants to bail out Genai?" Tai yells. Tai's, Matt's, Mimi's, TK's, and Miyako's hands go up. Entering in the room is Piximon and Wizardmon. Genai says, "Hurry. You don't how hot Annapolis can get in August, espicially in a closed-up office building with no power. To speed things up, use the Digital Sat-Com Program on the CD. There should be a pad at your locale." The message ends. Piximon says, "Today's fight shows some of you are getting sloppy. Tai, Matt, Miyako, I want you three to stay here. You right now need the most training." "NO!!! Not more of your training!! I hate it, I hate it, I hate it!! Last time I was trained by you, I sent half the time cleaning your house and the other half running from Tyrannomon!! What are you going to have us do now, polish the city with toothbrushes!!" Matt exerted. Piximon writes something down. "Polish city with toothbrushes. Why didn't I think of that?" he looks at Koromon. "In the last 9 days, how many times have you Terravolved?" "Uh..., 8 times, 5 times just yesterday." he answers. "And you, Gabumon?" "3 times. Only one a day." Gabumon answers. "How about you, Yokomon?" "Two times, both yesterday." Yokomon responds. "And now you, Mimi." "Uh, let's see.... 6 times. 2 times the day I first learned to do it, 3 times yesterday, and once today to treat Lewis and Bukamon. Yup, that's 6." she completes. "Okay, I can compile a training regiment for tomorrow with this. By the way, I think Mimi, TK, and Araiya should go for Genai, but that's my opinion." Piximon leaves. Wizardmon walks in. "I think I know who our dragon friend is. Remember that the Tauromon mentioned an amulet embedded in the gem in the metal plate that looked just like the Crest of Knowledge." everyone nods. "Well, one of the dome guards claimed that during the battle he heard a voice similar to Tentomon say 'Ouch!! My head...' after a girder fell down from the mountainside, then a flash of light, terrible screaming, roaring. He went down to investigate and found a pocket of mist in the general area of the girder, then seeing a dragon fly up and bust a hole through our dome. Fortunately, it didn't disrupt holographic function." Lilymon asks, "So, you're saying that that thing reared its head after the girder fell, and did something with Tentomon?" Wizardmon follows up, "A good assumption. We could have built Serenity over its native home, and the girder woke it up, and then attacked Tentomon afterwards, blaming him for awaking him. That's a good guess for someone without mind reading abilities. No, I found that the girder was irradiated by a powerful force, as though something digivolved. Then, on the cliff, I read its mind and found it to be paranoid, fearing that someone had deceived him, as though his friendship was a token one, that he more interested in the laptop. That, and Peyotemon sneezed near him just before the alarms went off." Tai comments, "No way!! You're saying that the dragon IS Tentomon!! But does any of this have to do with Kari?" Wizardmon finishes up, "He probably wants to be with the most truthful person he knows, that being your sister." He flips the page on the clipboard. "We tracked him to an uncharted island about 250 miles away. He would catch an air landing, but he wouldn't expect an underwater landing. I think I know the perfect rescue mission plan." Lilymon says, "Good. Have it ready in 3 days." Wizardmon leaves. "Well, I guess they settled it. Mimi, TK, and Araiya will get Jake and Genai. Tai, Miyako, and Matt will start training with Piximon, and Joe will sit back and wait while Bukamon recovers." "I hope this place has some good decongestants." Joe says. Lilymon quotes, "We expected you guys to find this place, so Joe, we got the best decongestants and anti-histamines that the real world has to offer." Joe jumps with excitement, "I'll be the healthiest person on Earth!!" She leans over to Tai and whispers, "Don't worry, we know he's a hypochrondriac, so we loaded the place with placeboes just for him."

The next day, they are awoken by Piximon smacking them over their heads with a stick. This worked on everyone but Mimi, who just rolled over. He continued to pummel her senseless to no avail. He stopped when she grabbed the stick and broke it. Next he tried ice. Nothing. All she did was say in her sleep, "Gotta turn down the AC." Finally, he tried a small gong. All he heard was her saying, "What am doing watching The Gong Show?" Piximon gave up. "The city could be going up in flames and she'd sleep peacefully. How do you wae her up?" Lilymon walks to her door. "Hurry up!! There's a sale at Macy's!! 25% off everything in the store until noon!!" Mimi bolts out the bed, and probably set a world record for getting dressed. She ran out of her room when Tai called her, "Uh, sorry, there was no sale. We needed to wake you up." she punches him and goes back to her room. "That's for waking me up at 7 o' clock in the morning for no good reason, and lying to me to get me up." She grows closer to her bed. Lilymon stands in the doorway. "Oh no, you don't!! Flower Cannon!!" Lilymon blows up Mimi's bed. She stops in mid-step. "But staying up is also good. Yes, very good. I'm going to see if there's something for breakfast now." she runs to the stairs. "The elevator was right there." Tai mutters, holding his jaw. "I'm a great motivational speaker." Lilymon comments to Tai. After eating a breakfast of whatever they wanted, they split off into their groups. Joe went and got a relaxing massage while everyone got ready. Lilymon leads them to a temple. "This was here when Serenity was established. It ties into a vast network of other pads that go all over the Digital World. We know where they lead, and where they are, but we can't seem to operate them. Genai said you could. Now, if you want the quickest route to the Koromon Village on Server, take the one that ends up near Etemon's old pyramid. It's the closest to the Washington, DC rift." she hands Mimi $5000. "While you're out, get some T1's and a Palm Pilot. Oh, and a cell phone with a one of those 1-year unlimited use and no roaming charges contracts. We really need to upgrade government communications systems around here." Mimi reviews the files on the disc. She is prompted to enter a password. "Enter Password? I'll show you!!" She goes to DOS and starts altering the CMO settings in BIOS. "Whoa, 8 days ago I knew nothing of computers except that they could access the Internet and you could play Solitaire on them, and here I am now, altering DOS command codes. It's like I'm possessed!!" Screens flash by on and off as she meddles with Izzy's password files. "Deleting all .pwl files...., now. Izzy, you can't keep any secrets from me." Araiya butts in. "You sure you should have deleted all the .pwl files? What if the computer falls in the wrong hands?" "Except for Windows 2001 and the Sat-Com program, this is a 34,632 Yen paperweight. C'mon, most laptops are designed to be disposable. See, if you think about it, it all makes perfect sense." "Sure it does. Maybe later." Araiya says. Patamon butts in, "It was bad enough listening to Izzy explain computers. Now this. Maybe I'll just buy one of those books for dummies and get it over with." "Sat-Com online. Let's go get Genai!!" The pad lights up, and they flash away. The second pad lights up. Everyone is thrown to ground. Patamon notices something. "Isn't this where we found out that this a shadow world of Earth and TK got the Crest of Hope? Isn't this the Sphinx?" TK says, "This does remind me of the Sphinx. But I thought it was destroyed." "Remember, the Digital World was rebuilt after we had beaten Apocalymon, so all the buildings that were destroyed were restored." Andromon, having digivolved back to his Champion level earlier that morning, says, "Intruder!! Intruder!! 500 feet ahead!!" A figure in a short to medium length dress stands in the mouth of the Sphinx. "You're calling me the intruder? I live here, at least temporarily. Who are you?" she yells down the hall. "I'm TK!!" TK shouts back, "And this is Patamon, Mimi, Araiya, and Andromon." Mimi squints at her. "All that light outside is makng it hard to see your face, but that dress I reconize. You visit a Gekomon castle in the recent past?" "Well, I did pass by a Gekomon castle having a yard sale a year or so ago, before the Dark Masters leveled it." the woman said. "Mind letting us see your face, seeing how we're all getting to know one another." "Okay, but don't ask for my name. I don't really remember mine." She steps forward. Araiya looks at her, mouth gaping. "Another S... so.. Sora!!" Yup, the computer copy of Sora in fact lived on despite the pyramid's destruction. She looked like an adult in her mid-20's and had brown hair dangling down to her hips. TK says, "Whoa, she's much older than the Sora we know." Mimi adds on, "Let's see here, 1 minute of real time equals 1 day here before the Overlords arose so, let see here. We found the pyramid about 4 months into our journey through this world. We spent 4 more months here until we found the gate at Myotismon's castle. We were in the real world for 3 days, came back and fought the Dark Masters for another 4 months, and then time synchrinized, so you are....." she takes a moment to calculate. "24 years old." "Yeah. The Gekomon were even nice enough to resew this dress to meet my physical parameters and needs." Sora says. Patamon says, "I'm beginning to believe Biyomon was right. There ARE millions of Soras, well, at least three or four, if you counted the Masked Empress." Araiya taps the shoulders of TK. "Need the FYI?" "Oh, see, the digimon called Datamon abducted Sora after we were nice enough to free them, and copied her. We all though he had deleted her when we saved Sora, but I guess all he did was saved her onto the computer, and then she must of reactivated on her own afterwards from another computer." "Well maybe that's why I don't remember anything before age 11. Well, although I have a general distrust of strangers, I feel as though I already know you from somewhere, so I'll trust you, for now. Why are you here..., Mimi?" Sora asked. "We're going to save a friend, Genai. You wanna come with? We could help you learn about your past." "Well, okay. I was going to move on anyway." She gets up a sack and ties it over her shoulder. "You mind leading the way? If I were to lead the way, I'd just get us all lost somewhere. Besides, living here on Server for nearly 13 years, you should know this like the palm of your hand, or something like that." They head off into the canyon.

Meanwhile,at Overlord HQ, NeoApocalymon sits looking out a window. "The Anti-Digidestined have proven themselves well. Ken, give them some, enhancements." he signals him, and him and Wormmon go down to do it. "The remnants of Nosferatumon rush through the window and into a vial. Ah, so the Chronicles are occuring as written. Anytime soon, I shall have the Sword of Life, and Life itself will bow to me. Lucimon, prep the Zybots and the armies. Time to invade the real world."

"Will they reach Genai in time? How did this new Sora live for so long in the Digital World alone, with no memories or friends? What does NeoApocalymon plan to do in the real world? How will Lewis's truth change President Lilymon? And what of Izzy, Kari, and Nyaramon taken hostage by the dragon revealed to be some altered form of Tentomon? What will Ken do to the Anti-Digidestined? Why did the United States government turn on Jake? Find out in 'First Terra: Chapter 6 - The Dragon's True Name'!!"
