Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ The Digital Trilogy - Episode 9 - And Now the Guns are Silent ❯ Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Kovin, Sara and Yolei were each on their digimon flying over Tokyo's deserted east end. They were making sure their city was kept safe. Defending a city of Tokyo's size was hard, but they were doing fine to date. Yolei and Kovin took Sara out with them on this patrol, not to get her used to flying in formation or their new military like structure, but rather to familiarise her with the city. Birdramon, Feamon, and Aquilamon were enjoying the time out in the air even though it was a circular patrol.

Yolei was flying point with Sara on her left, and Kovin on her right. He and Sara were scanning the city streets for anything out of the ordinary. Kovin looked at a street a few blocks over and found something that fit that category. A Konpakumon and an Inferimon were standing outside a convenience store, undoubtedly while their partners raided it for food or fun.

"Ladies, we got two hostiles four points to the right," Kovin said. "Everyone in for some target practice follow me."

"I'm in."

"I'm in," both said and all three birds banked right in sync. The Konpakumon floated slightly being a ghost digimon, and was slightly transparent. It was little more that a tradition white-sheet looking ghost. The Inferimon looked pale and white, like some dead thing that shouldn't be seeing the light of day. Both looked small, but their own digimon could sense that both of their targets were mega-capable.

"Feamon, can you set us down in the intersection away from them?" Kovin asked. Feamon set down on the street half a block away from them. The other two digimon had seen them and alerted their partners.

"Once they digivolve, they're going to be hard to beat," Feamon said.

"They're both virus type," Aquilamon said.

"And we're all data type," Birdramon said.

"Actually," Kovin said. "Aeromon is virus type."

"I thought Ozlimon was vaccine?" Sara asked.

"I am up to champion," Feamon said. "At ultimate I'm data type, and mega I'm virus type." A boy and girl came out of the store and dropped bags stuffed with things on the ground. They looked about twenty, and although they weren't uniformed, they were dressed for a fight.

"So what's the goal here, Kovin?" Yolei asked. "Repel or reconfigure?" She said the last word while punching her own fist, feeling the need to shed blood.

"Sara, what do you think?" Kovin asked.

"We try to repel, and use lethal force if needed. Either way they leave the city," Sara said. "The humans must survive."

"You know they're army does have non-digidestined people in it," Kovin said. "You're right to that point. If they challenge us to the death, make sure they lose."

Konpakumon digivolve to ... Yuureimon digivolve to ... Yureimon

Inferimon digivolve to ... Letalismon digivolve to ... Letifermon

They're enemy had digivolved, but only to ultimate. "Why'd they stop there, why not to mega?" Kovin asked. "Guys, don't one-up them, wait until they go to mega before you do."

"But then Talomon will only be data-type," Birdramon said.

"It's still three on two. Make it work," Kovin said.

Feamon digivolve to ... Talomon

Birdramon digivolve to ... Garudamon

Aquilamon digivolve to ... Halsemon

Talomon, Garudamon and Halsemon began walking slowly at the others. They held a defensive stance preparing for a fast attack from the others. Garudamon held the centre position while Talomon and Halsemon flanked her preparing to circle the others. When they realised they were being penned in they struck fast and hard.

"Yuurei blast!"

"Death's hand!" They fired their attacks as hard as they could, but it looked like they were already out of breath. The Yuureimon now looked like a spectral bird, and left glowing yellow trials behind it's transparent glowing white body. It's teeth shone, but the thing appeared to be nothing more than a smoky tendril. It's attack corrected them of that assessment when it shattered some concrete. The Letifermon was like a human corpse, pale-green skin that was missing in places revealing bone and layers of decaying flesh. Both girls found it horrid, and it also looked like it should have no strength but it's attack hit Halsemon hard. The armoured bird lost a lot of colour and fell to the ground severely weakened.

"Halsemon!" Yolei yelled and ran to him. The Yuureimon tried to fire again but Garudamon's Wing Blade sopped it.

"Do they look weak to you?" Sara asked.

"I noticed," Kovin said. "They should be firing much heavier attacks at the ultimate level. Those are barely champion strength."

"Wing Blade!"

"Sonic Blast!" Garudamon's and Talomon's attacks brought the other two back to rookies and sent them into unconsciousness. Both of the humans picked up their digimon and the food and started running, but slow because of their burdens. Kovin drew one of his blade's feeling suspicious, but none of them perused.

Talomon and Garudamon reverted to Ozlimon and Biyomon. They walked over to where Yolei was cradling Hawkmon. "He's just stunned," she said. "He'll be fine." Biyomon fluttered over with a bottle of water from the store.

"Here," she said. "It's nice and cold." Yolei accepted the bottle and Hawkmon drank willingly.

"That was too easy," Sara said. "There's something wrong with their digimon. They must be in worse shape than we thought."

"That could also be a trick," Yolei said. "They want us to think that they send their best into enemy territory. What if they sent their weakest to fool us?"

"Exactly why we have to find out," Kovin said.
