The Digimon Wars

Chapter 2 And So It Begins

When the morning came Michael was walking back and forth at the window. He had woken up in confusion, for a moment he had forgotten all about yesterday and when it all had come back to him he was slightly shocked and couldn't stop pacing in front of his window. He had witnessed how the morning sun had awoken the Digimon and how kids were the first to get outside to play, it all seemed just like in a some small town in the human world.

So this isn't a dream either huh? And I thought I was hallucinating but it doesn't seem that way. But the main question remains, how am I supposed to help them? It's just....How? He thought to himself.

That's when his thoughts were interrupted when Tailmon came in. She carefully opened the door and said. ''Is it alright to come in?"

''That's alright.'' Michael said as he stopped his pacing, he sat on the couch and looked curiously at Tailmon. She came in and closed the door behind her, she looked a little humorous because she was standing on her toes in order to reach the door handle. When she had closed the door she turned to Michael. "Did you have a good night's sleep?"

Michael scratched his head, when he had woken up he had quickly gotten his clothes back on but still desired to go back to sleep because the bed was so soft. "Well, it's a very good bed to sleep on."

Tailmon smiled. "I'm glad."

She pointed at the map on the wall. "Did you have a look at that map?"

Michael nodded and Tailmon continued. "Great, do you have any plans on what we should do?"

Michael wondered for a moment. "Do you have an army?"

Tailmon shook her head. "No, we're only refugees."

Michael rubbed his chin. "Then who is in charge of defeating the virus types?"

"EmperorGreymon, didn't I tell you?"

Michael continued rubbing his chin. "Just reminding myself, well...can you bring me a glass of water I-"

Michael was shocked, he just remembered that he didn't have his pill case here. If he didn't have his pills, then...He held his head as Tailmon nodded. "Sure, anything else?"

Michel shook his head. "No, just water."

Michael watched as Tailmon left the room, he wanted to yell. How could he have forgotten about something so important?! He grinned his teeth as he started thinking about it, the effects of the medicine would be gone in a few days and his mind would be rendered useless!

Michael kicked the couch and moved it a little, the couch made a lot of noise and sounded like something broke. He turned around to see Lilymon standing in the open doorway. "I-Is everything alright?"

Michael sighed. "It's okay, I'm just thinking about stuff."

"If there's anything I can do to help, then just ask."

Michael looked at her worried face, he turned to the window and looked at some clouds. They were big white clouds that happened to be the shape of an airplane, Michael found it a little humorous and started walking towards Lilymon. "Let's get Tailmon and go for a walk."

As Michael was walking down the dirt road accompanied by Tailmon and Lilymon every single Digimon they passed either cheered or bowed, it was a little strange but Michael found it a bit amazing.

He liked the feeling of actually being respected, he looked how kids stopped their playing to see him, how Digimon stopped their working to look at him, how the Digimon in front of him stood aside to make him way and to salute him properly. He was honored, he chuckled as he waved to some Digimon. When they had been walking for a while They stopped at the city gates, Michael leaned on one of the pillars and started talking. "I don't know what to do, I have no clue how to lead an army here. But like I said, I will try. Anyway, I have a small plan. I'm thinking that we should go meet EmperorGreymon and try to persuade him to give me some of his troops."

Tailmon and Lilymon nodded, Michael was about to continue when he noticed something. The forest in front of them...The trees had started to either move of fall, he stopped leaning and looked at the forest. After a moment he saw rather big black Digimon coming out of the forest. Lilymon and Tailmon were both shocked, they yelled in unison. "The virus types!"

All the Digimon that happened to hear the scream carried it on and soon alarm bells started ringing and the entire town was in panic, Michael looked at the virus Digimon who had started running towards them. In total there were a dozen of them, they looked like big dogs with black and white tiger-like color patterns. Lilymon started flying and put her hands together and put them like a gun. "They're a BlackGarurumon scouting party, Tailmon! Get the other champion Digimon! I'll hold them off!"

Tailmon nodded and started running into the town on all fours, Michael looked at Lilymon whose hands had been surrounded what looked like a big closed rose. The rose opened and glowed, Lilymon yelled. "Flower Cannon!"

Michael was awed when Lilymon's hands shot out a big blast of energy at the attacking BlackGarurumon, they dodged it but it made them to slow down a little because Lilymon kept on shooting and forcing the BlackGarurumon to keep on dodging rather than charging. "Run Michael!"

Michael didn't hesitate, he started running into the town. After a few minutes of running he was greeted by Tailmon who was accompanied by Garurumon and Greymon, they weren't many in number but they were still looking ready for a fight.

Tailmon stopped in front of him while the other Digimon kept on running. Michael looked confused. "Where did those guys come from?"

"No time to explain, just get to safety!"

Michael looked as Tailmon ran after them, he continued running to the town square. In the open are there were almost all the Digimon in the town. They were shivering in fear, they looked to him in hope of salvation and safety. Michael felt sick, he wanted to help them but couldn't. He turned around after hearing an explosion, he looked as one of the BlackGarurumon was running straight towards him. Michael was paralyzed in fear, he just looked at the big black and white wolf was running straight for him.

Michael was just about to close his eyes when he saw that a big fireball hit the wolf's back and it stopped to turn around, he watched as the BlackGarurumon ran a little bit back to bite one of the Greymon's arms. He watched as the Greymon shrugged BlackGarurumon off and started to breath fire on him, BlackGarurumon didn't care about it and jumped behind Greymon and started pushing him as much as he could.

Michael understood something as he saw how easily the BlackGarurumon managed to push Greymon down and to push him towards Michael, the virus types are much stronger than regular Digimon. That's why the normal typed Digimon are unable to win this war!

Michael watched as BlackGarurumon dragged Greymon near him, BlackGarurumon howled and jumped towards Michael. Michael was afraid, he looked as the black wolf was in the air coming right at him. He didn't even notice when Greymon launched another fireball at BlackGarurumon and knocked him to a building that shattered under its weight.

Michael watched as the panting Greymon stood up and walked to Michael, the big dinosaur Digimon roared and yelled. "Stay away from our savior!"

Michael knew that Digimon could speak but Greymon's loud and deep voice still scared him, he looked as BlackGarurumon jumped in front of Greymon and started breathing blue fire at him. Michael watched as Greymon commenced into a duel of fire, the two Digimon tried to beat each other in this struggle of fire. Michael looked as the two pillars of fire were pretty evenly matched until BlackGarurumon stepped it up a notch and defeated Greymon in the struggle, he watched as Greymon was consumed by the blue flames and roared in pain. He watched as BlackGarurumon stopped breathing fire and how Greymon stood there for a second and then exploded into small green bits of data. Michael witnessed how Greymon had died, a Digimon had died. How a Digimon had died trying to protect him, he looked at the citizens who were behind him screaming in panic and fear. Michael grinned his teeth and yelled, he yelled from the bottom of his lungs and yelled to the sky.

Everyone was confused about him yelling and no one noticed how some of Greymon's data turned blue and started flying back towards Michael, the data was absorbed by Michael and soon enough he started glowing white. The blinding light that came from him started getting stronger as his body had started to expand, it expanded and expanded. His body was now much larger than the Greymon who had perished and had started to take shape, slowly it Michael grew horns and a tail, big stomach and big feet, strong arms, horns, big teeth and a big mouth. Hr wasn't a Greymon, he was a VirusGeoGreymon. When his transformation was complete the light quickly faded and revealed that Michael had turned into a black and blue Greymon that was much larger than the Greymon who had just died. Michael opened his eyes and roared loudly, the citizens had to cover their ears and the BlackGarurumon seemed frightened. Michael looked at the BlackGarurumon who had started to take a few steps back, Michael laughed and kept staring at him.

Michael looked at himself and grinned, he had become a BlackGreymon. He looked at the cowarding BlackGarurumon who seemed so small right now, Michael roared and called his attack. "Mega Flame!"

Michael's mouth was filled with bright red flames and when he opened his jaws he freed them, he watched as the BlackGarurumon perished in flames. Michael let out a big laugh and looked around, he saw that the others were still fighting some BlackGarurumon at the gate. He started running through the now narrow streets and jumped over some building to get to the gate quickly. No one saw him as he jumped on one BlackGarurumon who was engaged in a flame duel with a Greymon, the wolf let out a wheeping cry as he was destroyed into bits of data by Michael's foot. Michael looked around and saw that the remaining nine BlackGarurumon had seen him and started to flee. Michael didn't pursue them because he knew that his size didn't give him the speed he would have needed to catch them.

He turned around to see the open jaws of the Greymon, Garurumon, Lilymon and Tailmon. Michael laughed. "I found a way to help!"

He laughed some more until he started glowing white again and got turned back into his human form, as soon as the while glow had vanished he saw blurry images and fainted.

Fog, so much fog... Wet grass, moonlight and slow warm wind. Shapes taking form in the fog... Big feet marching slowly in unison, ground shaking and slow quiet growling. Loud footsteps getting closer, forms taking shape. Greymon's marching behind their leader. A big VirusGeoGreymon, it growled and looked straight at him. It started quickly running at him and launched a huge flamethrower at him.

Michael woke up panting, he put his hands on his face and was collecting his thoughts. "God damn nightmares."

"You're okay!"

Michael barely got his hands off his face when Tailmon jumped to his bed and hugged him while sobbing. Michael looked at her and around himself and noticed that he was in his room, it was then when he saw Lilimon who was holding her tears.

Marcus held his head. "Wait, did I transform into one of...You?"

Lilimon nodded. "You somehow digivolved into a VirusGeoGreymon, it was scary. You digivolved into one of 'them'"

Lilimon took a step forward. "Did something happen?"

Marcus petted Tailmon who was still sobbing. "One of those dog things attacked me and one of those orange dinosaurs came to my aid, when he died I just...snapped. I don't really know what happened."

Lilimon took a step forward. "Well, whatever it was I'm glad that you're on our side. The bad thing is that we have to leave now."

"Why?"

"Now the virus types know where we are, we must leave in order to prevent another attack."

Marcus rubbed his chin as Tailmon finally calmed down and stood up while apologizing. "You're right, now that they know that we're here they won't be holding back. They most likely want me dead now that they know of my existence. How soon will we be ready to leave?"

"We're already preparing to leave, while most Digimon don't want to leave they are still packing up and preparing to leave their homes behind." Lilimon replied.

Marcus stood up from the bed and walked to the window to see the Digimon packing their belongings. "I know that leaving your home isn't fun, do they understand the threat we're facing?"

"Yes."

"Good, how long until we're ready to leave?"

"About an hour." Lilimon said.

Michael sighed, he looked at the many different types of Digimon who were preparing to leave their home behind. There was a large variety of Digimon including:Poromon, Nyaromon, Tanemon, Koromon, kokomon, Tokomo, Piyomon, Azuramon, Elecmon, Lopmon, Patamon, Plotmon and Agumon.

Michael sighed again and turned around to look at Lilimon, he crossed his arms and looked down. "I don't want to make them leave their homes behind but it just isn't safe now that the enemy knows where we are, do you have any suggestions on where we should go?"

Michael looked at Lilimon who began to think, after almost a minute or so she smiled. "I know a place, what about the human worl-"

"No!"

Lilimon was startled, she looked at Michael who glared at her angrily. Michael turned around and sighed. "I'm sorry, it's just. I don't know, I mean. It is an option but even if we would go there then how? How would we get there?"

Lilimon took a step forward. "There's a portal to the human world in Mount Hope."

Michael turned round to Lilimon with a confused look. "Mount Hope? Who names these places? And what is it?"

"Well, it is said that in Mount Hope there is a shrine to Valdurmon and that its monks are capable of traveling between worlds."

Michael looked into Lilimons eyes and started walking towards her, Lilimon was slightly scared and took a step back. "And you decide to tell me about this just now?"

Lilimon was shaking a little. "I-I d-didn't think t-that you would care that much."

"Are you sure that the shrine is real?"

Lilimon nodded. "Some of its monks have visited us and various different cities before the war."

Michael smiled and grabbed her shoulder. "Then, that's where we're headed. Do you have a map?"

Lilimon nodded and ran out of the room to look for the map, Michael smiled and turned to the window again. He saw how Tailmon was outside helping some little Digimon with their packing. He sighed again. "How will Earth react to Digimon....?"

Michael and the Digimon of the village had been traveling for six straight hours now, the huge convoy was shaped like a long rope. The outer part of the convoy was being protected by all the Greymon and a few other champion level Digimon while in the middle there was everyone else. Michael, Lilimon and Tailmon were in the front of the convoy. During this long travel they had told Michael of everything going on in this world.

He had gained more knowledge on how this war between virus types and other types of Digimon had started, it seemed that the situation was much more complicated that he had predicted. The virus Digimon were actually rather few in number a few years ago in here, to what he had been told virus types were a minority with barely any rights. A virus type Digimon was rarely seen in any place working, no one wanted to hire them because of all stories they had heard about virus types. It seemed that a stereotypical virus type Digimon was one that wanted young Digimon to follow them and then it would kill them and eat their data in order to repair its own corrupted data.

This story only actually happened a few times, the virus that actually changed Digimon was much like some sort of a disease in the human world. No one would go near them in fear of infection and death. If you caught a virus here then you were doomed. Viruses have never been removed from a Digimon before, only certain types of Digimon could actually catch the virus but it was still largely believed that anyone anywhere could be infected by the virus if they hanged out with a virus type Digimon.

From Michael had learned the virus itself didn't actually do anything, it only seemed to make Digimon much stronger and different color. This all seemed like when slaves were freed in the human world.

When the virus types had had enough and decided to fight for their freedom and rights, the first victims were innocent Digimon and thus the emperor of the Digital World had to come in and stop them. EmperorGreymon had called his generals and ordered them to collect their armies, he had thought that they virus types could easily be destroyed but he didn't know that they were actually even more organized and loyal than his own armies.

The virus types didn't have a single leader unlike the Digital World had with EmperorGreymon. They had a council, this council consisted of  Khaosmon, ChaosDukemon, BlackOmegamon and BlackImperialdramon. These Digimon also had killed some of EmperorGreymons generals.

Magnadramon was a ruler of a floating sky temple known as the Golden Shield, this temple produced some of the finest soldiers of EmperorGreymons army including some of his generals bodyguards. Those days were over when ChaoDukemon and his pet attacked it and killed everyone.

ChaosDukemon had been an apprentice there before he was consumed by the virus and kicked out of the temple, he now had his revenge.

The Royal Knights, they were like the CIA was to the USA. They belonged to EmperorGreymon and did all sorts of secret work, including taking out powerful Digimon. One of the old members of the Royal Knights was BlackImperialdramon, when he had gotten the virus he was kicked out. Later when the cirus revolution had started he had lured them out and killed everyone single one of them one by one.

Chaosmon had challenged EmperorGreymons greatest general, VictoryGreymon and defeated him. VictoryGreymon was the only Digimon in existence who wa sin some ways stronger than EmperorGreymon so this had panicked the entire Digital World, virus types were too powerful to not to take seriously.

While all this was happening BlackOmegamon attacked the "capital" city of the Digital World, Taisinki. The virus types had timed their attack perfectly because all of this was happening at the same time and EmperorGreymons army base was too far in order to help any of these places, BlackOmegamon had led this attack accompanied with thousands and thousands of virus type Digimon. Once they had almost completely destroyed the city they had rebuilt it with a military sense and renamed it Helsinki.

EmperorGreymon had collected his remaining generals to meet him in his hidden fortress near Helsinki. AncientGreymon and ShineGreymon.

EmperorGreymon had many allies including HervulesKabuterimon, HiAndromon, MedievalDukemon, Rosemon and CrapLeomon.

Michael was also told about the Dragon island that was in a civil war, he didn't care about it too much thou.

Michael and the others just got out of the forest after their six hour walk, they had managed to get to an open grassy area with some rocks around perfect for sitting. Michael turned around and raised his voice. "Everyone! We're taking a rest here! Pass it along!"

Many Digimon cheered in exhaustion, Michael looked how some Digimon started running to the field and how children started cheering when they would finally get to rest. He watched how the Greymon took most of the stuff everyone was carrying and taking them to the middle of the field. Michael walked with them to the middle of the field and watched how exhausted everyone was, he was approached by Lilimon. "You should take some rest as well."

Michael laughed a little. "Easy for you to say, you flew the whole way here and I'm in charge of this little migration. I can't rest."
