Chapter 15: Battle of Shinjuku

"So this is a modify card. When used it can add traits to a digimon like armor or strength or even special attacks." I told Juri as she marveled. "Okay..hey Dori do you ever think Leomon will come back?" She asked me as I was shocked and frowned before smiling. "Of course he will. I believe everyone will come together one day.." I said as I looked and saw Akasuki on the step looking at his digivice. I felt awful for him having to deal with this. I couldn't imagine losing Vee but even still he is dealing with it worse because of the loss of..me. I really want to tell him the truth but I don't want him to be more confused or even upset. However watching him like this is just tourture to me. As I watched him I heard walking as Henry and Rika came up the stairs. "Hey what are you two doing?" Rika asked me as I smiled. "Juri want to know more about digimon cards and so I am teaching her." I told her as Rika smirkled. "Maybe I should teach both of you. You are not exactly the best at the card game." She said as I knew she was talking about my 100 losing streak to her when we had spare time. "You don't have to be so mean about it.." I puffed as she chuckled and begin to teach us more. However watching her do that made me smile at how much she changed and became better as a person and a tamer. In fact, it reminded me of a certain purple haired girl I met. "So what's that about?" I heard my brother as I turned and saw Henry, him, Terriermon, Guilmon and Kazu and Kenta all looking at some poster. "The devas." Was all he answered as all of us were confused and shocked as we all got up and looked at it. "All the deva's look like these animals. Mihermamon the tiger, Sandiramon the snake, Sinduramon the roster, Pajiramon the sheep, Vajiram And the bull, Kumbhiramon the rat, and Indramon the horse." he explained as our eyes opened wide. "So the only ones left are the hare, monkey, dragon, dog and the boar." I said as he nodded. "Yes it would seem." Henry said as I nodded. "Huh that's really weird but whatever we need to go home." Kazu said as he saw Kenta look at the ground. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen.." He said as we followed his finger only to see the odd boy who has been popping up lately. "Hey you were the one from the other day right?" Juri asked as he chuckled at us and ran. "Hey wait up!" Juri yelled as she and the rest of us gave chase. As we ran we eventually made it into the city before we felt a shemsmic movement that caused me to fall on my butt but Akasuki caught me. "Are you okay?" he asked as I nodded only to see the boy was gone. "Darn it." Rika Said before all our partners tense. "Takato it's a digimon." Guilmon Said as he and the rushed off near a park area where a digital field appeared. "This isn't good." I Said as from the fog came a deva one which was massive and was a pig. "Akatsuki kazu kenta Juri run and get out of here we'll Handle it!" Takato Yelled as they nodded although Akatsuki was hesitant but left. As they did the pig moved into the city as we scanned his data. "Okay ready guys!" Takato Said as we nodded. "Digimodify digivolution activate!" We Yelled as our digimon changed into their champion forma as they rushed at the deva. "Quatro Storm!" Rinkmon Said as she rushed around the deva but it walk through her tornado. "Pyro Blaster!" "Bunnie Blast!" "Fox Tail Inferno!" Growlmon Kubimon and Gargomon Yelled But the attacks didn't even phase him. "Damn he's tough we need to evolve into ultimate." Gargomon Said as I nodded however we didn't know how. "Oh no guys look." Takato Said as we looked and saw the deva move farther but also we saw the destruction dealt to our town. It was in ruins. "If this keeps going it will hit our apartment." Henry Said as he looked panicked. "I bet there worried for me.." Rika Said sadly. "Their probably looking for us Dori…" Takato Said as I picked up on it. Our parents..no no they could be..No! "At this rate it'll destroy everything." Takato Said as we watched feeling helpless. "We gotta try our best to fight back. Maybe if we think about it hard and wish we can go ultimate..." Takato Said as we looked at our cards. "I want to protect my siblings.." Henry Said. "I want to protect my family." Rika Said. "I want to protect my friends.." I Said. "I want to protect my town." Takato Said as our cards shone brightly as they became blue cards. "It's a blue card! We did it!" My brother yelled before becoming serious as we nodded. "Digimodify matrix digivolution activate!" We all Yelled. "Growlmon, Gargomon, Kyubimon, Rinkmon digivolve to Taomon, MegaloGrowmon, Rapidmon, Peakockmon!" Our digimon Yelled as they rushed to the deva as we looked forward ready to fight it. To protect our town, family, friends, and siblings we needed to defeat this monster. As our digimon got ready they stopped in front of it as the boar looked confused. "Rapid fire!" Rapidmon Yelled as he fired missiles at him. "Charging strike!" Megalogrowmon Yelled as he charges at the deva only to be blasted back by a black goo like substance which covers him. "Megalogrowmon!" My brother Yelled as his partner was now trapped under a red pillar. "Our powers don't seem to be as strong against this deva." Toamon says as he blasted the liquid but Toamon blasted one of her talismans at it. "Common get up boy!" My brother Yelled as I looked up at the sky as I saw something come from the boar digimon back. It was the sky! "Guys look the sky!" I Yelled as Henry and Rika looked up. "Why did everything turn out this way?" Henry Asked as we heard our digimon cry out as they were submerged in the goo. "No!" We all Yelled as I looked for a card to grab them out. "It's no use our cards are useless.." I said before Henry opened his eyes. "'No wait our faith is what our cards are about, if we don't believe in them there just cards but if we do believe then..that's it!" He Said as me and Rika looked at him. "The evolution card only work if we beloved in them. The digivices must take our emotions and will it to happen." He told us as we opened our eyes wide. "That's it!" We exclaimed as we then looked and nodded. "Digimodify! Radiance of destiny activate!" We Yelled our digimon glowed as they were soon freed from the goo through the power of light. "Yes we got him on the ropes!" I Yelled as Rapidmon fired into his mouth alone with Peackmon with her rainbow beam as the digimon Yelled as fire came from its mouth. "Ouch talk about heartburn." I Said before Rapidmon and Toamon cried out. "What's..this my powers it's fading away.." Rapidmon Said as we saw him, Toamon, and peacockmon glitch as to was the boar deva. "What's going on?" I asked. "Gooo." I heard as I saw MegaloGrowmon struggling as Takato watched. "Takato. TAKATO snap out of it." I said to him shaking him. "I don't get it?" He said. "What don't you get?' Rika asked. "When digimon evolve, they grow bigger and stronger and their attacks get stronger, but they kept becoming less of friends. Is that evolution..is that what evolution means?" He asked as I was shocked by his attitude. I was gonna say something but Rika beat me to the punch. "No matter how big or strong, she becomes Taomon is still renamon, my friend." Rika says as he looked at her. "There's a reason they grow stronger." Henry said as Takato looked at him. "A reason?" Takato asked. "Because they do it out of love." I said smiling as I saw our partners as my brother smiled to. "Henry." We heard as we saw Henry dad right there as his eyes opened wide. "Dad?" He asked

(Akatsuki Pov)

Menwhile with me and the others we had moved to try and find the strange boy to find out why he was stalking us. However I got a really bad feeling about it. "YOU!" I heard Kenta yell as the boy stopped and stared at us. "We are not your playthings. Now that we have evolved, our human creators are no longer gods for us." He said menacingly. "What..are you talking about?" Juri asked. "We are only protecting our world, it is natural to do so. However humans deepen their interference in our world. They threaten our world." He said as my eyes opened wide. 'Your a digimon.." I told him as his sick smiley continued. "We have a right to evolve to higher stages, but to do that we must eliminate those who threaten our evolution of our world. WE MUST ELIMINATE YOU!" He yelled as we moved back a little. I was worried as my magic would have no effect on him and thus I couldn't keep him away. "Don't come any closer!" Juri said as we backed away more. "Who are you!" I yelled as he transformed as his body became that of a monkey with a robe. "Makuramon Ultimate level beast type." My digivice read as I spoke it. "So he really is a digimon?" Kazu said "Yes and this is where I take a monkey wrench to your machine." he said but he wasn't talking to us as he chucked a small orb into a green opening near the building with two near it.

"Taomon and the others are in danger!" Rika said as we watched our digimon go into Toamon's portal but even that was getting deleted. "The digimon will be deleted..I have done something so horrible to your friends.." I heard Henry's dad say as I was sad. "My friend..Guilmon.." Takato said as I put a hand on his shoulder to try and keep him hopeful. "Hey look in the sky! It's a ball!" Rika yelled as we saw a ball being chucked into the green energy field on the top of two buildings. As this happens a huge explosion went off as Henry dad grabbed us. "Get away Henry and you all to. This is too dangerous." He yelled as we were rushed away but the digimon were up again. "So the impure energy that shaped our strength is gone..unfortunately his strength has come back. " Taomon said to the digimon as we saw the boar get up. "Dori!" I heard a voice as I looked to see Akatsuki and the others near us on the other side of the street. "Stay away from here!" Henry dad yelled as Akasuki looked scared. "The boy from earlier he's a digimon and he was talking nonsense." He told us as my eyes opened. "Oh no not two in the same town." I said before Henry's dad pushed us away as we looked at our partners fighting. Takato looked at Metal Growlmon. "You said it right?" He said as we faced him. "No matter how much they evolve the digimon are still our friends..and friends help each other right?" Takato said as I smiled. "That's right that's why we were here to help them." I told them as he nodded and ran off to him and then started to yell. "Okay he's losing his mind." I said as he continued to do it until MegaloGrowlmon got up and charged at the deva breaking his attack as our digimon namely Taomon repaired the sky. "Atomic Blaster!" Megalogrowlmon said as he blasted the deva into data as we watched impressed by how he went down. "These are..real digital monsters..this is what we have made." Henry's dad said as we ran to Takato. "TAKATO!" I yelled as I hugged my brother as he looked beat. "Are you okay what was the yelling and the moving about it's like you two were in sync." I told him as he sighed. "I don't really know it just happened." He said. "DOri!" I heard as I saw Akatsuki and the others run to us however out of nowhere a monkey came out of nowhere and snatched calumon. "The objective we need in order to evolve is this creature.I shall bring it back to where it belongs." He told us as he flew up "Hey stop!" We yelled as we saw Leomon jump off a building and grab onto the digimon. "Return Calumon." He told him as a silhouette of a bird appeared in the sky as it rained small needles which smashed into leomon sending in crashing down as Juri cried out as a light shown as Juri got a digivice and ran to him and healed him with the digivice. "She's got a partner." I said as I smiled until I saw my brother. "Our town is in ruins and now like Takato said Calumon is the digimon who can allow us to evolve but now without him.." Henry said as all of us were bumped until. "Were gonna rescue him.." My brother said. "But how?" I asked. "Were going to the digital world." He said as we looked and nodded. "Don't worry Calumon where gonna save you." I said as we looked to the sky.
