Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ The Digital Trilogy - Episode 5 - A Phoenix from the Ashes ❯ Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Kari finally opened her eyes for good; she blinked while allowing them to readjust to the light. She sat up with her head spinning and made her way slowly to the kitchen. "Need some help Kari?" TK asked. Kari responded by hissing at him like a cat. Salamon woke up when she heard it and was in shock Kari could make that sound.

"Sugar." She said slowly, her voice sounding like gravel. She opened a two-litre bottle of cola, put it to her mouth and started sucking.

"Okay, no more Pepsi for me, ever." Yolei said watching Kari assimilate the bottle. "So anything exciting happen to you while we were away?" She asked Allura.

"Not really. Some girl stopped in and asked if Kovin was here."

"Oh, 'some girl'." TK said. "Is Kelryn going to have reason to kill him when they get back?"

"I don't think so. I forget her name. She had straight rusty hair halfway down her back."

"Belch!" The three humans and four digimon turned when Kari burped. All were shocked that such a loud noise could come from such a small human.

"Get enough to drink?" Ken asked pointed at the empty bottle. She glared daggers at him and everyone felt the temperature in the room drop a few degrees. She sat down at the table backward facing on the chair.

"Ken, what level is Wormmon?" She asked.

"Ultimate five. Remember that fight a few weeks ago?" Ken said.

"Yep. TK?" TK thought about it, and checked his digivice.

"Ultimate eight."

"Good, good." Kari said. "Gatomon is ultimate four so she can't play. You two have enough D-Power to DNA digivolve." Ken and TK stared at each other. It was usually easy to guess what a digimon would go to by itself when it hit the next level, but DNA combos were hard. They usually avoided it because DNA digivolving gave them brute strength at the cost of one fighter. But since they didn't have access to any mega digimon, merging two ultimates was the only way.

"What would they become?" Ken asked.

"No idea." Said TK. "Magnaangemon and Paildramon. Hope its better looking that some combinations we've seen."

"Yeah. Part angel, part wasp/dinosaur." Ken said.

"OK boys, you can try it later. For now we need information." Kari said.

"Who elected you leader?" Ken asked.

"No one. Just making a suggestion."

"Ok then. Let's review. They know a lot about us, they seem to be organised, they are fighting in groups now, and they talked about making a weapon." Ken said.

"They called it a 'cannon'." TK said.

"What kind of cannon?" Allura asked.

"No idea. That's all they said. I don't think we were even supposed to know about that much." TK said. He turned to Ken who was on the computer checking and sending messages in the entire Guardians message board.

"I've asked everyone else to watch out, but no one has reported anything strange." Ken said.

"Is that good or bad?" Kari asked. No one answered, just thought. "What we need to do is find another fight. We can follow them and find some answers."

"Looks like you'll get the chance." Patamon said from by the window.

"Yes. It seems there is another fight already. I've counted five different attacks." Wormmon said in his low wavering. They were both out on the balcony of the apartment looking into the hills beyond Tokyo where small bursts of light were illuminating the landscape.

"You watch Azuma this time." Allura said to Kari. Kari reluctantly agreed and let the other three go. Palmon was looking foreword to some action beyond changing diapers.
