Chapter 7

"Who the..." Before Kovin finished the sentence he has hit over the head with something blunt, he couldn't see what. Kelryn was a formidable fighter, and was making it very difficult for the two larger men to hold her down. Both were bleeding and one was starting to show signs of a black eye. Kovin fell to his knees. He couldn't concentrate on anything except the pain. He was dizzy and couldn't see strait let alone be any help to anyone. The one that hit him had a bottle of ether ready and a rag. He soaked the rag and held it on Kelryn's face. She was unconscious almost instantly. They were both hauled into the forward cabin. By this time Kovin had some of his senses back and could look around the room and see the details. There was a fourth attacker, this one female, holding a gun on everyone else.

The humans were tied together back to back in pairs; Yolei and Izzy, Tyler and Mathew, James and David. Jody, Mitzy and Sara were tied together as a group of three. There was a large sack hanging from the roof near the back of the room making several degrees of squawking, and Kovin concluded that all three birds were in it. Demireumon was hog-tied by the wall, her deadly claws pointing harmlessly in to the air. Agumon and Gabumon were tied together with their mouths tied shut to prevent their attacks. Tentomon simply had a belt around his body, preventing his shell to open. His dull claws were useless against it. Veemon looked dazed and had his arms tied together behind him. Gomamon was the only one free, but he was completely knocked out.

"Who are you people?" Kovin asked. He was hit in the stomach and thrown to the floor. The attackers got together and stood.

"Well. That does it. Ten digimon, ready to move us up a few levels. And look who it is!" The boy looked toward the back of the room. "You were right, I'm sorry."

"Of course I was right. Yep, yep." A voice said. The smallest digimon Kovin had ever seen jumped of a table and came walking over. He looked like a fuzzy pink cannon ball with pixy-wings, and a short blue staff.

"How the fuck did you beat ten rookies with that little shit?" Kovin asked. He looked at Yolei shaking her head, meaning not to ask the question.

"I am Piximon, it was no trouble, nope nope." It said.

"Demireumon alone could swallow you whole." The digimon's partner was laughing.

"You think so? He's not a rookie. Not even a champion. Piximon here is an ultimate level."

"Shit."

"Damn right. In your current state, you humans are useless. Your digimon could be valuable if they could digivolve, but not in a pressurised plane five miles above the Earth." It didn't look good. "Now move." They were escorted at gunpoint into the rear cabin. All the humans were sequentially tied down into their chair.

"Where the hell did you people get so much rope?" David asked. They answered by knocking him out cold with a hit from a maglight to the back of his neck. The digimon were left in the foreword cabin because Piximon could handle an attack from all of them simultaneously. The girl with the gun was left guarding the humans, while the other three went to the cockpit. Kelryn was just starting to wake up. The girl came over and slapped her hard on the face.

"I'm not done with you missy." She said.

"Shit, you." Kelryn said.

"That's right." She said, and walked off to sit and watch. Kovin leaned over and whispered to Kelryn.

"Is there anyone from your past that doesn't want to kill you?"

* * *

They sat quiet for hours, absorbing and compiling all the information about what had happened. They all also saw the girl guarding them was tired, and starting to nod off. When she did, Sara spoke up.

"Guys, I think I can get my ropes off, they're not tied very tight." She said.

"Great, you free then the rest of us." Kovin said. Sara could be heard grunting quietly trying to get her restraints off. "Problem back there?"

"Yeah, it almost seems like someone tied me down. Shut up and let me work."

"Sorry." After a few moments a rope came over the back of Kovin's seat.

"See? Told you." She said. Sara untied Kovin and then Kelryn beside him. Kelryn and Sara started freeing everyone else quietly so as not to wake their sleeping guard. Kovin went strait to the back and got his katanas. He came back to find people stretching limbs and waiting for something to do.

"What's the plan?" Tyler asked.

"We kick some ass." Yolei said.

"Yeah," added Kelryn, touching the spot on her face where she was slapped. "But we need to be a bit more specific."

"Right." Said Kovin. "We take her out first, then figure a way to get Piximon away form our digimon."

"Shall we?" Kelryn asked Kovin.

"Enjoy yourself, but no blood please."

"No promises." She said as she tiptoed up to the sleeping girl. Kelryn looked at her quietly for a moment, then grabbed her neck with one hand and slapped her with the other.

"Fuck, ahh!" She screamed. Kelryn picked her up bodily by just her neck and threw her to the floor. One of Kovin's blades had its tip on her stomach, ready to pierce. The other was on her windpipe. Kelryn took a few steps back feeling proud of herself.

"Sorry to wake you." Kovin said. "But I don't like being tied up. I have some friends here who don't like it either. Where are you taking us?"

"She doesn't have to answer." A voice said. Kovin turned to see one of the other people standing by the door the girl was guarding. He was also holding a knife to Kelryn's throat. "Let her go."

"You let her go." Kovin said.

"If you hurt the mother of my children, I will kill you."

"What a coincidence." Kovin said. Both stood and stared at each other, both holding a knife to a throat.
