Chapters Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
It was another normal day. Tomorrow was the day of the Normal Rank Tournament between Night Claw and Light Fang. Spike was participating in said tournament on behalf of Night Claw. Spike may have been a new Tamer, but his partner Digimon Dracmon was a force to be reckoned with, along with his SkullMeramon and Antylamon.
As Spike stood in the line with the other Normal Rank Tamers of Night Claw, Chief Twilight Sparkle and her partner, ChaosGallantmon spoke, "Ok everyone. As you all know, tomorrow is the day of the Normal Rank Tournament between Night Claw and Light Fang. We're here to practice before tomorrow's tournament. Now, I've gotten the local Digimon to agree not to interfere with out training, but I still don't want anyone getting hurt. Stay alert, just in case anything happens. Spike, you'll be practicing with Garble and Gabby. Starlight Glimmer, you'll go with Thorax and Iron Will.
Spike nodded as Twilight told him he was training with Garble and Gabby. Garble suggested, "Hey, why don't we go further in?"
Gabby rolled her eyes, "What's the point? We're not practicing against the local Digimon, so it's not like going any further will be any different than training right here. You agree, don't you Spike?"
Spike shrugged his shoulders, "Honestly, I agree with Gabby, but if all of us stay here, we might accidentally get mixed up. I'm fine training here, but both groups might want to train somewhere different."
Garble smiled, "That sounds like he agrees with me more!"
Gabby growled lightly, "Don't be a smart ass Garble! Spike even said he agreed with me!"
Before the two could continue arguing, Spike sighed and walked farther into the ruins and called back, "You two can argue if you want, I'm going to train, feel free to join me if you decide to stop acting like a couple of 5 year olds fighting over a toy."
As Garble and Gabby stopped arguing and ran after Spike, Garble yelled, "N-No fair Spike! It was my idea to go further in!"
Gabby sighed, "Stop. Just stop Garble. We're going further in, isn't that good enough for you?"
As Spike stopped, he turned around and asked, "How about you and me go at it first Garble?"
Garble nodded, "Yeah! My Impmon is itching for a fight!"
Before the two tamers could send out their Digimon, Spike felt a shiver go down his spine and said, "Wait... something's not right..."
Garble raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean Spike? Everything looks fine to-" before Garble could finish his sentence, the ground started shaking and he fell over, hurting his ankle. As the earthquake ended, Garble groaned in pain, "F-Fuck! I think I broke my ankle!"
Gabby ran over to Garble and checked his ankle, "I'm no doctor, but it doesn't look broken, just badly twisted. Spike, can you go check on the others? I'll stay here with Garble to make sure he gets back safe. He may be an idiot, but he's still my teammate, and I'm not leaving the injured behind."
Garble growled lightly, "H-Hey, don't call me an idiot..."
"The injured should stay quiet! Spike, go see if the others need help-" Gabby was about to help Garble up when a Vilemon appeared, "Vilemon!? I thought Chief Twilight got the local Digimon to agree not to interfere with our training!?"
Spike stepped in front of Garble and Gabby and said, "It might be because of the earthquake, they're startled and wary. But Vilemon, if you want to get to my friends, you'll have to go through me."
The Vilemon was growling and foaming at the mouth, and when it attacked, Spike's SkullMeramon came out and slammed one of his flaming chains into the Vilemon, defeating it quickly. "You ok boss?"
Spike nodded, "Thanks SkullMeramon, that was too close for comfort. Let's go see if the others need help." Spike and his Digimon headed back towards where they came from and saw Starlight Glimmer, Thorax, and Iron Will being attacked by more Vilemon.
When Starlight saw Spike, she called out, "Spike, help out over here!"
As if on cue, Spike's Antylamon turned its hands into axe like appendages and spun in a twister motion, cutting up the Vilemon and causing them to go back to data. "This isn't normal, these Vilemon are much more aggressive than normal. Master, we should check on Chief Twilight and see if she might know what's going on."
Spike nodded and headed back to the entrance to the ruins and saw Twilight and ChaosGallentmon defeating three Vilemon without much effort. Twilight chuckled, "You seem bored ChaosGallantmon."
The tall dark knight Digimon sighed, "I didn't even break a sweat. If we're fighting out here, I'd much rather have some sort of challenge. But still, these Vilemon weren't just mad, something was controlling them, I'm sure of it." As he looked around, he saw a strange man in a dark red cloak laughing in the corner. He and Twilight ran over, but the man disappeared before they could catch him, "Damn! He got away!"
Spike didn't say anything, but something about the man in the red cloak, which he saw as well, felt strangely familiar. As the other Normal Rank tamers came back to meet with Chief Twilight, He said, "Sis, what could have possibly happened that made those Vilemon go nuts? Garble nearly broke his ankle because of those little buggers."
Twilight Sparkle sighed, "Right now, I'm not sure. Everyone, go back to Darkmoon City and get some rest for tomorrow's tournament. After what happened here, we're all going to need a good night's sleep for tomorrow. Spike, if you don't mind, I'd like to talk to you in the Union Room when we return to Darkmoon City, it's just some procedural things, nothing too big."
Spike gulped, he had a feeling there was more to it than that, but he nodded, "Yeah sis, I'll see you there."
When Spike met with Twilight and ChaosGallantmon, Julia smiled, "Calm down Spike, this is nothing to be worried about. I just wanted to show you this. Whoever that guy at Thriller Ruins was, he had a picture of you, which he dropped when he ran. Do you know who this person might be?"
Spike shook his head, shocked at the picture of him when he was younger. "No... I have no idea who that guy was, but... this picture... it's an old one, why would he have it? Please Twilight, don't leave me in the dark on anything you learn about this guy."
Twilight nodded, "Wouldn't dream of it Spike, if this person knows you, you'll be the first to know if we figure anything out about this. Go back to your Tamer Home, get some rest."
When Spike left, ChaosGallantmon sighed, "He knows this man, even if he doesn't know where he knows him from."
Twilight nodded, "I agree, but for now, it's just theory, nothing concrete. Let's go home."
Who is this mysterious person, and why did he have a childhood picture of Spike? Spike seems to recognize the man from somewhere, but where? Only time will tell...
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
The Normal Rank Tournament
Spike had been up early on the day of the tournament between Night Claw and Light Fang. Getting up early had helped him be alert enough to win the Group A battles in the tournament, placing him in the finals against whoever would win the Group B battles.
While the rest of Night Claw was watching the battles in Group B, Twilight and ChaosGallantmon were going over some data they'd pulled up overnight. Twilight was shocked as she read the findings, "ChaosGallantmon, this can't be right... Spike... a Draconian? The Draconians went extinct back in Equestria decades ago."
ChaosGallantmon nodded, "As surprising as it is, there's no mistaking it, Spike is made up of human and Draconian DNA, with some data. You realize what that means, don't you? Spike is part Digimon."
Twilight couldn't believe it, the boy she'd raised as her little brother was part Draconian, and part Digimon? She sighed, "Well, that might explain why he's so in sync with his Digimon, he's one himself. We'll have to keep an eye on him"
Back at the Night Claw waiting room, all hell broke loose when Iron Will came out of the Group B final match, defeated. Spike calmed everyone down, "Come on you guys, we can still win the tournament. I already won the Group A matches, and I know if I try hard enough and believe in my Digimon, I can win the finals."
Gabby nodded, agreeing with Spike, "Spike's right, it's not over yet. I'm sure Spike can win!"
The others got over their disappointment and quickly voiced their confidence in Spike. As Twilight came back into the waiting room, she asked Spike, "Spike, I'd like you to meet Chief Flash Sentry of Light Fang. Follow me."
As Spike followed Twilight, he saw Chief Flash Sentry along with his partner Ophanimon. Spike introduced himself after saluting, "Hello Chief Flash Sentry. My name's Spike Drake. I don't know if Twilight has told you, but I'm her adopted little brother."
Flash nodded, "Yes, she's mentioned you before. You were impressive in the Group A matches, but Ember is not a Tamer to be taken lightly."
Ophanimon spoke, agreeing with her Tamer, "Yes, Ember has a lot of potential as a Tamer."
A voice came from the Light Fang waiting room, "Thank you Flash and Ophanimon, but I've still got a lot to learn." A girl with turquoise hair walked out and saluted, "It's nice to meet you Spike. My name's Ember, I'm the one you'll be facing in the finals."
Spike smiled, "Nice to meet you Ember. I think I'll enjoy our match." The two groups headed back to the waiting room until it was time for the final match. Spike stepped on the warp pad to the arena and smiled when he saw Ember, "No matter who wins, let's be sure to have a good battle!"
Ember nodded, "Right!"
And with that, the battle began. Spike's SkullMeramon acted first and slammed one of his chains into Ember's Palmon, dealing a lot of damage. However, Ember's MegaSeadramon was able to lighten the damage by encasing Palmon in a bubble of water.
As the battle continued, eventually it came down to Ember's Palmon and Spike's Dracmon. The two were exhausted, but continued to fight on. Spike smiled, "I think our Digimon are running out of energy, this next attack may be the last one for our Digimon."
Ember nodded, "Yeah, let's do this Spike!"
As the two Rookies ran at each other, they stood after colliding. After a few seconds, Palmon passed out on the arena floor. The referee said, "And the winner of the Normal Rank Tournament is Spike of Night Claw!"
Ember groaned, "Man, how could I lose? Heh, you're going to be a good rival for me Spike. I guess this is where we part ways for now, but I'm looking forward to the day we fight again."
Spike nodded, "So do I Ember, so do I." and headed back to the Night Claw waiting room.
Twilight smiled as Spike came in and told him, "Good job Spike, I'm proud of you, both as your sister and the Night Claw Leader. I have a reward for you when we get back to Darkmoon City. Go to Tamer Home to pick it up."
Spike smiled, but as he and Twilight walked back towards the warp gate back to Darkmoon City, they saw the strange man from the other day. One of the guards said, "You there! State your name, rank, and intention!"
Twilight gasped, "It's him, from before!"
The man snickered and disappeared once again, just like he did in Thriller Ruins. Flash Sentry asked Twilight, "Twilight, do you know that guy?"
Twilight nodded, "The other day during a training session, that guy caused the wild Digimon in Thriller Ruins go crazy and attack us indiscriminately. Something about him bugs me. You should get back to Sunshine City and check your servers. Something's not right about this guy, and I have a feeling this isn't the last time we'll see him."
Flash nodded, "Right, we'll be in contact Twilight." and stepped on the warp pad back to Sunshine City.
When Twilight was meeting with the Bronze Tamers from Night Claw, she was also meeting with Spike. After she dismissed the Bronze Tamers, she told Spike, "Spike. I need to tell you something important."
Spike sighed, "Alright, lay it on me, what did I do this time sis?"
Twilight shook her head, "You're not in trouble, I just need to tell you this. You know that everything you see around you is made of digital data, binary code, whatever you'd like to call it. And then there's Equestria, the world we humans came from before coming here. Well... you're not fully human. For reasons I can't disclose right now, we did a blood test, and your results tell us... you're part Draconian."
Spike's eyes widened, "Draconian!? B-But I thought the Draconians went extinct years ago?"
Twilight nodded, "They did, that's why I don't understand how it's possible. I have a feeling that strange man we saw yesterday and at the coliseum today knows something about this, and like I said, if I learn anything more, I'll contact you."
Spike nodded, "Thanks sis. I'm going back to Tamer Home. I'll see you around."
ChaosGallantmon sighed as Spike left, "We can't tell him the full truth, not yet at least."
Twilight nodded, "Yes, you're right. For now, let him rest."
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
Spike had been asleep since he got back from the Coliseum, so he had no idea what was happening in Darkmoon City. People were talking about the tournaments. They were really excited for them. Tomorrow was the Bronze Tournament. But things were about to get crazy. In the Dark Terminal, a Cherubimon was talking to a Ghoulmon, "So, who do you think will win tomorrow's Bronze Tournament?"
The Ghoulmon sighed, "Well, if Spike were a Bronze Tamer, there'd be no doubt Night Claw would win. Spike's a natural Tamer, he's just got some sort of gift. It might be the fact that his sister Twilight Sparkle is Night Claw's chief, but I think he got to where he is on his own. Anyway, since Spike's not in the tournament, you can't underestimate Light Fang's Bronze Tamers."
All of a sudden, an alarm started blaring and a strange mass of energy appeared. Cherubimon stepped in front of it, along with Ghoulmon and said, "Hey, you look suspicious!"
Ghoulmon took a battle stance, "Darkmoon City is beyond this point. I won't let anyone suspicious through!"
The mass of energy cackled and shot out strange orbs of energy, knocking the nearby humans out and converting all the Digimon into Digi-Eggs. The energy made its way onto the warp panel into Darkmoon City, more specifically, Dark Gate.
When BishopChessmon and RookChessmon saw the intruder come in from the Dark Terminal, BishopChessmon told it, "Stop right there! I will not allow someone like you to enter Darkmoon City!"
RookChessmon nodded, "Don't bother resisting, this shield is impenetrable."
The mass of energy cackled again and said, "Oh really? Why don't we just test that theory?" before sending out more strange orbs of energy, turning the guards and all the other Digimon into Digi-Eggs. It then made its way to the Union Room.
Meanwhile at Tamer Home, Spike had just woken up, but he was feeling strangely sick. He got up from his bed and walked towards the warp panel back into the City when Gatomon, his Navigation Digimon stopped him saying, "Spike! We've got a big problem! A virus attacked the city, and it even got to here at home. SkullMeramon and Antylamon have degenerated back to their Rookie forms. You were supposed to- huh? Spike, you look horrible! What's wrong!?"
Spike rubbed his temples and said, "Nothing, it's just a bit of a bad wake up."
Gatomon sighed, "Fine, if you insist. You should go out to the city to see if you can help, just be careful." As Spike left, Gatomon said to herself, "Is it possible that the virus is affecting him? No... a computer virus shouldn't affect a human. Maybe he's just caught a cold..."
Spike arrived in Dark Plaza and saw that all the Digimon had been turned into Digi-Eggs. "Holy shit... All this destruction... I've got to get to Twilight!" he ran towards the Union Room, but stopped when he got a headache, right in front of the warp panel. "What's going on with this cold? It shouldn't be this bad... Just focus Spike!" before stepping onto the warp panel to the Union Room and seeing the strange mass of energy attacking Twilight and ChaosGallentmon.
Twilight groaned, "Something's trying to worm its way into my mind."
ChaosGallantmon tried to get up, "Got to get rid of the virus data... before... it takes over."
Spike ran over to them and said to the mass of energy, "Leave my sister alone!"
The energy mass turned around to see Spike, "Hmm... ah, yes... Well, since it's you, I'll be leaving. I've caused enough destruction for now. But first, let me test your skills! Defend yourself or perish Spike!"
Spike was shocked that the strange energy mass knew his name, but his Digimon were ready to fight. Even though SkullMeramon and Antylamon has degenerated to Candlemon and Lopmon, they were still strong enough to help Dracmon fight. As the three Digimon attacked the energy mass, Spike's cold started to get better. "Keep it up you guys, we can do this!"
As the energy mass was bested, it laughed again and said, "Impressive. I'd expect nothing less from you Spike. We'll meet again, you can count on it." before disappearing.
Twilght got up, followed by ChaosGallantmon, and thanked Spike, "Good job driving whoever that was off little bro."
ChaosGallantmon nodded in agreement, "Thank you Spike, you saved my life."
Spike smiled, "It was nothing, but how did that thing know my name? And why was it that the weaker it got, the better my cold got?"
Twilight sighed, "You're asking questions I don't know the answers to, yet. For now, you and the others should start system checks. We need to know the extent of the damage that the virus caused."
As Spike and the other Normal Rank Tamers checked on the systems, Thorax complained, "Man, why do we have to check the systems? We've seen the damage the virus did on the way here."
Iron Will agreed, "Yeah, plus this is so tedious! I hate system checks!"
Starlight Glimmer sighed and rolled her eyes, "Shut up you two, this is important work for the Union. Just because we can see some damage doesn't mean there's not damage we can't see."
Gabby walked over from talking to Twilight and said to Spike and Garble, "Come on you two, Chief Twilight wants to talk to us."
As Spike and Garble followed Gabby, Twilight told them, "From what we can tell, there's minimum injuries from the attack, but the North, South, and East areas of Darkmoon are down, and so is the bridge to Sunshine City."
ChaosGallantmon nodded, "Which means we have no contact with Sunshine City or any of their Tamers. We were able to get three Digi-Areas online. Chip Forest, Thriller Ruins, and Sunken Tunnel are back online after the attack. Spike, we'd like you to check out the Sunken Tunnel. Just be careful."
Thorax, Iron Will, and Starlight Glimmer ran up to them, Thorax saying, "Chief Twilight, let us go too!"
Iron Will agreed, "We can help, I know we can!"
Starlight Glimmer was nervous to ask, but got out the words, "Chief Twilight... I request your permission as well..."
Twilight shook her head, "Request denied! We don't know what's going on outside, you'd be putting yourselves in harm's way, and I won't allow it. That's the final word on the matter."
The three tamers left, and when they did, ChaosGallantmon sighed, "I understand how they feel, I want to get out there and help as much as they do, but we don't know what's out there. Spike, report back here once you've investigated Sunken Tunnel." Before saluting him, along with Twilight and Spike saluting back.
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
Spike had been helping out Digimon who needed favors done. Helping Digimon was just part of the job as a Tamer. He decided to go back to Tamer Home to Digiconvert the Chionmon data he'd collected at Sunken Tunnel. Chionmon was a Champion level Digimon, so he'd be helpful to have, even if it was in his reserves. When he had finished creating his Chionmon, he headed back to Dark Center and heard Piedmon, "Spike! We've got a Union request. Head over to see your sister in the Union Room."
Spike sighed, but it was just part of the job. He headed to the Union Room and Twilight addressed him, "Spike, a new Digi-Area has come online. I'd like you, Buff Biceps, and Time Turner to head and take a look around there."
Time Turner tipped his hat, "No problem chief. But are you sure Spike is ready to go there? I've heard there's a lot of tough Digimon, and Spike's still a Normal Rank Tamer, me and Buff Biceps are Bronze Rank."
Twilight nodded, "Yes, I'm sure. Spike needs more experience with the new Digi-Areas."
Spike smiled, "Thanks sis. I'll do my best." and headed out towards Dark Gate. When he got to Dark Terminal, he heard a voice cackling, and it was the same cackle as the strange mass of energy had.
A voice spoke in his head, "Come Spike, come to Limit Valley. I want to push you beyond your limits, to see if you can tap into your true power. I'll be waiting."
Spike shook his head and sighed, "What's up with that guy? Who is he, and how does he know so much about me?" He continued on his way through Limit Valley.
When Spike made his way to the end of the valley, the energy mass was waiting for him. "Ah, so you're here. I believe it's time I explain who I am, and who you are." The energy exploded into a large Digimon, "My name is Grimmon, and you Spike, were an experiment I worked on years ago. I knew humans were helpful towards Digimon. 20 years ago, I collected human DNA, along with a small portion of Draconian DNA. The Draconians were a race of proud and powerful warriors. I saw potential in using their DNA in the experiment. Finally, I used my own Digital DNA Data. So, you are my son, my own flesh and blood. I created you 20 years ago, but it took 2 years for your form to develop enough that I could send you into the real world."
Spike was shocked at what Grimmon was saying, "No... that's a lie! I can't be... a Digimon! That's not possible!"
Grimmon chuckled, "I expected such a reaction. I'll prove it to you!" he roared loudly, and sent a beam of energy at Spike, which enveloped him, causing him to glow.
Spike looked at his hands, his whole body was glowing, just like a Digimon that was about to Digivolve. As the light enveloped his body, he grew purple and green scales, his nails turned into claws, his teeth became much sharper, and he grew a lizard like tail. When the light faded, Spike looked at himself and said, "S-So it's true... I really am a Digimon..."
Grimmon nodded, "Yes, and since you are my son, you will join me as we rule the Digital World, together as father and son!"
Spike spit in Grimmon's direction, "Like hell I will! A father who abandons his only son for 18 years, just for the sake of an experiment? I'll have no such father! If I really am a Digimon, than I can still fight you!"
Sangloupmon and Chionmon came out of their Digi-Cards, and said, "We're with you boss!"
Grimmon growled, "Very well. I see you will not be swayed. It's truly a shame, but if you will not join me, you will die! I don't accept any resistance, even from my own son!" before swinging his tail at his son and his Digimon.
Sangloupmon and Spike jumped out of the way while Chionmon went into his igloo shell to avoid damage. Spike felt instinct overcome him, "Needle Fang!" his already sharp teeth grew longer as he bit into Grimmon's arm, causing lots of damage.
As Grimmon was being overpowered, he growled, "Damn it! It seems I underestimated you my son. For now, I leave. But remember, a piece of me will always be inside you!" before disappearing
Time Turner and Buff Biceps had just seen the end of the battle, and Time Turner asked, "S-Spike? Is that you?"
As Spike turned to see the Bronze Tamers, he went back to his human form, proving that it was him, "Yeah, it's me... apparently that Digimon... he's... he's my father... I'm part Digimon, and I guess I just went into my Rookie form."
Buff Biceps was confused yet amazed at the same time, "That's wicked Spike! What are you going to call your Rookie form?"
Spike never thought of that, he'd been so wrapped up in the battle, he didn't even think of giving his Rookie form a name, "How about... Magidramon?"
Time Turner smiled, "It's got a nice ring to it. For now, let's head back to Twilight and tell her about this."
When Spike had returned to Twilight, a look of sorrow was in Twilight's eyes, "Spike... I'm sorry. I knew you were part Digimon since the Normal Rank Tournament, when I got the blood test results. I'm sorry I lied to you, but I wasn't sure how to tell you."
Spike hugged his sister and said, "It's fine sis. It's not something easy to accept, but Grimmon is my father. Still, I hold no loyalty to a father who abandoned his only son for 18 years. My loyalty remains to Night Claw, and it always will."
Time Turner cleared his throat, "Sorry to interrupt, but we've still got problems to deal with. Grimmon doesn't seem like the type who would give up on having Spike join him that easily. I have a feeling this isn't the last time we'll see him."
Spike nodded, "Time Turner's right, Grimmon will return for me, and we'll have to be ready."
Twilight smiled, "We will be. Spike, do you know if you can tap into your Rookie form?"
Spike sighed, "I'm not sure, Grimmon activated it, and after the fight, I turned back to normal. But I will need to learn control over my Digimon form if I want to beat Grimmon. I'll start training as soon as possible."
Twilight nodded, "Good idea Spike. And remember, human or not, you're still my brother, and you always will be."
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
Spike sighed. Ever since he fought Grimmon in Limit Valley, his Navi-Digimon Gatomon had forced him to stay in Tamer Home so she could run some tests. "Gatomon, how much longer do you need to do these tests? So far they haven't told you anything useful."
Gatomon rolled her eyes as she turned around from her chair, "Well, that's about to change. It seems Grimmon's data wasn't the only data used in your makeup. He also used data from an ancient virus called NRG. That's why you were having such a bad cold when he attacked the city. The virus that he used to destroy the city caused a bad reaction to the virus in your body."
Spike raised an eyebrow, "So I've got virus data in my body? Is there a program we can upload to get rid of it?"
Gatomon shook her head, "Well, technically, we could easily get rid of it, but it seems that the NRG Virus is what lets you turn into Magidramon. I theorize that Grimmon knew this and made it so you couldn't change when he was attacking. But there's a few more tests I need to run. The Digi-Egg of Love you got from the Union Quest in Limit Valley, if Magidramon can use it to Armor Digivolve, I'd like to set it up to your Digivice so you can use it any time you need to."
Spike nodded, "That sounds like a good idea. Armor Digivolving could help out if Magidramon isn't strong enough."
Gatomon put an armband on Spike and connected it to the PC, and connected Spike's Digivice to the PC. It beeped for a few moments and Gatomon typed in some data. "Good, it looks like the Digi-Egg of Love is compatible with Magidramon. What should we call the armor form?"
"Well, it would be easier to name it if we knew what it looked like, don't you think?"
Gatomon laughed nervously, "Well.... yeah. Right now the NRG Virus is in a stasis mode, so we can't activate it right now. But maybe... Hmm..." Gatomon went back to typing on the PC and said, "Well, I can energize the Digi-Egg of Love to bypass the NRG Virus's stasis mode, but you'll only be able to stay in the armor form for a little while."
Spike nodded, "Do it."
Gatomon crossed some wires between Spike and his Digivice and told him, "You still need to say Digi-Armor Energize in order to activate it."
Spike nodded, standing up and holding his Digivice in his hand, "Digi-Armor Energize!"
The Digi-Egg of Love showed up on his Digivice's screen and he started to transform. He skin turned to pink scales and he grew four white angel wings on his back and gained a bow and arrow, with the arrowhead being in the shape of the Crest of Love. When he looked at himself he said, "Well, it's a bit girlie, but flying sure is useful." After he changed back, he sat back down, "Hmm... it reminded me of Cupid from Greek mythology, so maybe Cupidramon? It's still definitely a Dramon type Digimon, and Cupid is the God of Love."
Gatomon nodded, registering Cupidramon's data into the Digivice. "You'll still need to take it easy on Digivolving for a while, the NRG Virus needs more time to come out of stasis."
Spike nodded, "Thanks Gatomon. I should tell this to Twilight." Before exiting Tamer Home and heading to the Union Room, "Hey sis, I found out a bit more about my Digimon form. I have virus data from the NRG Virus in my makeup, and that's what allows me to change into a Digimon. Gatomon says it's what caused my cold during Grimmon's attack. One more thing, I was able to use the Digi-Egg of love to Armor Digivolve into Cupidramon." He showed her the information on Cupidramon that Gatomon had gathered.
Twilight smiled, "That's a very interesting Digimon, and I like the name. By the way, do you think you're ready for an advancement test? I was thinking about giving Leomon at the Digi-Coliseum the green light for you to take the Bronze Tamer Test."
Spike's eyes widened and thought for a moment, "I think I want to get more used to my Digimon forms before I take the advancement test. I want to see what Magidramon and Cupidramon can do in battle so I can decide if I want to use them in my tests."
Twilight nodded, "Ok, I can understand that. There's a battle simulator opening up in Dark Square. I'll have Gatomon send over Magidramon and Cupidramon's data to it, that way you can see what they can do in the simulation, so you'll know what they can do without having to change into them. In the meantime, get some rest, you'll need it if you really want to beat Grimmon."
Spike nodded, "Thanks sis, I'll see you tomorrow morning." before heading back to Tamer Home, and getting ready to go to bed. "Gatomon, before I go to bed, did you transfer the data from Magidramon and Cupidramon to the battle simulator?"
Gatomon nodded, "Sure did, the data will take a while to load, but it should be ready by tomorrow."
Spike yawned, "Thanks Gatomon. I'll see you in the morning." before plopping down on his bed and falling asleep.
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
From Simulation to Realization
Spike got up early in the day to go check out the new Battle Simulator. He wanted to learn more about his Digimon forms, and since the data was uploaded to the Simulator, he finally could see what they can do. He stepped into the simulator and activated it.
The simulator asked Spike, "Greetings Spike. What Digimon would you like to use?"
Spike told the simulator, "I'd like to use Magidramon and Cupidramon."
The simulator beeped and whirred before saying, "Digimon data acquired. Starting battle simulation."
Spike was met with an Agumon and Gabumon against his Digimon forms. He looked over their skills and decided to use Cupidramon's Coupler Arrow attack on Gabumon. Cupidramon pulled out one of his arrows and shot two of them at Gabumon. The Gabumon then used Blue Blaster against Magidramon, who took little damage.
Soon enough, Spike had gotten used to what his Digimon forms could do and said, "End simulation."
The simulation ended, and Spike stepped out of the simulator. He headed to the Dark Office and went up to Piedmon, "Hey Piedmon, any new quests?"
Piedmon nodded, "Yes, something about Loop Swamp, go talk to your sister for more information."
Spike nodded and headed to the Union Room and went up to Twilight, "What's new Twilight?"
Twilight looked from the monitor behind her, "A new link was established in Loop Swamp. We've detected illegal activity there similar to the virus that attacked the city.
Spike nodded, "I'm on it, I'll check it out." before heading to Dark Terminal and then Loop Swamp.
When he got there, Meramon came out of his Digi-card and asked, "Boss, you look a bit under the weather. Is the NRG Virus reacting to the illegal activity?"
Spike sneezed, "Yeah, it's just like when my father attacked the city. Gatomon gave me some special vaccine data though." He hooked his Digivice up to his neck and pressed a button on it, feeling better almost instantly. As he continued through the swamp, he finally found his way to the end of the swamp after figuring out what whirlpools he was supposed to go through.
A large skeletal Digimon was standing at the end of the swamp and saw Spike, "Are you the client?"
Spike thought something was definitely suspicious about this Digimon, but decided to go along with it. "Yeah, that's me."
The Digimon said, "Good, let's get down to business. Name's SkullBaluchimon. I had this made, just like you asked. This wasn't easy to make, but with that virus you gave me, I was able to finish it. Now, do you have the goods?"
Spike gulped, he knew he had to get whatever it was that SkullBaluchimon had made, but he didn't know what he was expecting. He took a battle stance, "Sorry to disappoint, but there's been a change in plans."
SkullBaluchimon growled, "You traitor! I'll show you what happens to those who cross me!" before jumping into battle.
Spike quickly took his Magidramon form and Chionmon and Wendigomon came out of their Digi-Cards. Wendigomon sent out a blast of dark energy, and Chionmon rammed into SkullBaluchimon with his igloo shell.
As SkullBaluchimon grimaced from the attacks, he said, "Not bad, but not good enough!" before releasing a wave of darkness.
As Spike attacked SkullBaluchimon with his Needle Fang attack, he got knocked away and was badly injured, "D-Dammit! This wasn't supposed to happen! I-I'm still too weak..."
Wendigomon and Chionmon continued to fight, but when Spike started to lose hope, SkullBaluchimon told them, "You'd be better off giving up like your boss!"
Wendigomon growled, "Never! Boss, you have to believe in yourself, just like we do!"
Chionmon nodded, "You can do anything if you put your mind to it Spike! We believe in you!"
Spike got up panting, "Y-You're right guys. I need to believe in myself." He screamed, powering himself up. As he did, he started glowing. A large suit of armor formed around him and his tail grew an axe-like appendage on the end. "Magidramon Digivolve to... Guerrilladramon!"
Wendigomon smiled, "Told you boss! You've Digivolved to a Champion!"
Spike got used to his new body, in this form, you could easily consider him a one man army, considering he had a rocket launcher, a flamethrower, and a Gatling gun. "Guys, get back!" when Wendigomon and Chionmon backed away, Spike activated his jet pack to fly high up in the air.
SkullBaluchimon snickered, "If your wimpy Rookie form couldn't do anything against me, do you really think your Champion can do anything? Bring it on!" standing in place to take on Spike's attack head on.
Spike activated the rocket launcher and flamethrower on his shoulders before firing off his Gatling gun, "Ballistic Blowout!"
As the attack came at him, SkullBaluchimon smiled lightly, "Oh, how cute he named it- OH SHIT!" before being knocked off his feet and falling in submission. "D-Damn... You're stronger than I expected... Wait... are you... a Union Tamer?"
As Spike landed on the ground and turned back to his human form, "That's right, I'm Spike of Night Claw!"
SkullBaluchimon growled, but then sighed, "Well, I'm not going to be stupid, here, take this." and handed a strange USB drive to Spike, "I was hired to make this. I'm a mercenary who'll get anything anyone wants. This mission was an epic failure though. Don't get too cocky though, this was a fluke, I'm sure of it!" before fleeing.
Spike smiled at Chionmon and Wendigomon and said, "Thanks you guys. I should have believed in myself more."
Wendigomon nodded, "It's nothing boss, we'll always believe in you, and as long as you do too, you can do anything. I like the name you came up for Guerrilladramon, very cool for a one-man army."
Chionmon cleared his throat, "Sorry to interrupt, but we should get that USB drive to Twilight."
Spike nodded, "You're right Chionmon." before stepping on the warp pad back to Dark Terminal and heading back to the Union Room. "So sis, what is this thing anyway?"
Twilight looked over the data from the flash drive, "It seems to be a reboot system for the virus that attacked the city. If this was uploaded the correct way, the city would have taken even more damage."
One of the Night Claw engineers came over and said, "Chief Twilight, we were able to produce a vaccine against the virus that attacked the city, and we were able to restore Dark Area East."
Twilight smiled brightly, "That's perfect! Does that mean you can get Dark Area South and Dark Area North back online?"
The engineer shook her head, "Sadly, no. The virus developed an immunity to the vaccine we created. We'll need more time to make a stronger vaccine."
Twilight sighed, "Well, I suppose it would be too easy for everything to be fixed at once. We'll just have to keep working."
Spike mumbled to himself, "And by we, she means me."
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
After the battle with SkullBaluchimon, Wendigomon had finally returned to her original form, Antylamon. While Meramon and Sangloupmon were out training, Antylamon stayed in Tamer Home with Spike. "Master, can I tell you something?"
Spike looked up from his book and said, "Sure, what's up Antylamon?"
Antylamon blushed lightly, "Well... ever since I was a Lopmon, I've always felt a strong connection to you. More than just partners..."
Spike blushed as well, "W-Well... I'd be lying if I said I didn't have the same feelings. I've always admired your fighting spirit and your beautiful body."
Antylamon smiled, "Y-You think I'm beautiful?"
Spike nodded, "Of course I do. You're one of the most beautiful Digimon I know of."
Antylamon sat next to Spike on his bed and said, "I want us to be more than just partners master. I'm in love with you." before kissing Spike.
Spike smiled as Antylamon kissed him and said, "I love you too Antylamon, let me show you how much." before softly pushing her onto his bed.
Antylamon smiled, "Yes master, please take me." before moving her fur to show a D-cup rack and her dripping pussy.
Spike caressed Antylamon and moved them into a 69 position. "I'll show you how much I love you Antylamon." before licking her dripping cunt and sucking on her clit.
Antylamon moaned in pleasure, "Allow me to return the favor master." before she started sucking on Spike's cock while squeezing it in between her breasts.
Spike moaned out, "If you keep that up, I won't last long."
"Neither will I master, let's cum together." before both of them screamed out in pleasure as they came in union.
Spike moved up to lay next to Antylamon and kissed her, "Now, should we move to the main event?"
Antylamon kissed Spike back saying, "Yes, I want you inside of me."
Spike laid down and moved Antylamon on top of him, lowering her onto his cock, "Tell me if the pain is too much, you're really tight."
Antylamon giggled lightly as she moaned, "Of course I'm tight, I've saved myself for you this whole time master. The pain feels good. I love the way my cunt twitches to squeeze your big, fat cock." before moving herself up and down on Spike's cock, "Master, would you like to play with my tits?"
Spike smiled and as he brought Antylamon down to him, he said, "I'd love to have a taste of them." as he started to lick, suckle, and grope her breasts.
Antylamon moaned out in pleasure, "Oh god yes! Use me, I want to be your bitch! You deserve as many Digi-sluts as you want, but please make me your first bitch!"
Spike grinned, "Damn you're really into this. I'm not complaining about starting a harem though. You'll always be my first though, no matter what, I love you more than anything."
As the two of them came close again Antylamon told Spike, "Master, cum inside of me, I want to be your baby mama!"
Spike moaned as he said, "If you say so. Here it comes!" before cumming in Antylamon's cunt. His cum was filling her up so much that it started to drip out.
As Antylamon fell into Spike's arms, she told him, "This was the best bonding day ever. I love you Spike."
Spike kissed Antylamon's cheek and said, "I love you too Antylamon. Were you serious about the harem though?"
Antylamon nodded, "Yes, you're a great guy, any girl would be lucky to have you, and I'm willing to share you with any other Digimon you'd like to fuck silly. We'd better get cleaned up before Meramon and Sangloupmon get back though." before getting off the bed and heading to the shower.
Spike followed her to the shower and got in with her. When she turned around he grinned and said, "We're not done yet, we still have one hole I haven't filled yet." before slipping his cock up Antylamon's ass.
Antylamon yelped and then giggled, "What a naughty boy you are master. Sex in the shower is a bit cliché though, don't you think?"
Spike raised an eyebrow, "Are you saying you want me to stop?"
Antylamon shook her head, pressing herself against the glass of the shower door, "Nope, keep going."
As Spike continued to ram Antylamon's ass, he came closer and closer with every thrust before yelling out, "Here's the last of everything I've got!" before cumming again in her ass.
After the second round of sex, the two of them cleaned up for real. Spike got dressed and Antylamon covered her breasts and pussy with her fur so they didn't show. Antylamon asked Spike, "Spike, what would you like to do if I do end up pregnant with a Digi-Egg? If you were purely human, I wouldn't be worried, but you're not, so you may have been able to knock me up."
Spike sighed, "Well, if we do have a child together, I'd like to keep them out of battles. I won't let my son or daughter get hurt, even if it is for the good of the Digital World."
Antylamon smiled, "Thank you Spike, that means a lot to me."
When Meramon and Sangloupmon got back from training, Meramon asked, "So, how'd you do on a boring day staying at home with Antylamon?"
Spike smiled lightly "Just fine, we did just fine alone together."
Sangloupmon sniffed around and raised an eyebrow, "What's that smell? It smells like lavender shampoo."
Antylamon crossed her arms, "Oh, so just because I'm a Digimon, I can't take a hot shower after a day of getting covered in dirt and sweat?"
"She has a point you guys. I may not battle much, but I'd still want to take a hot shower after a day of battling." Thankfully, he'd used non-scented shampoo, his other Digimon wouldn't suspect he was in the shower with her.
When Sangloupmon and Meramon had gone to sleep, Antylamon met up with Spike before they went to bed, "Thanks for giving me the best time I've had master."
Spike smiled, "It was great for me too. I'll see you in the morning." before going to sleep with Antylamon cuddling up to him.
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
The Enemy of My Enemy is My Friend
Spike woke up in Tamer Home and made himself a cup of coffee. He needed to get his head straight after the night he had with Antylamon. He did have feelings for her, but he wasn't sure the relationship was a good idea. It might cause one of them getting hurt trying to protect each other in battle. But for now, he wanted to train so he could get used to his new Champion form, Guerilladramon. He went over to the Union Room and asked Twilight, "Hey sis, do you think you could help me with something?"
Twilight nodded, "Sure, what's up?"
Spike explained, "When I was in Loop Swamp the other day, I was able to Digivolve into my Champion form. I'd like to spar with somebody for a little while to get used to the new form. Do you think you could help me find a sparring partner?"
Twilight smiled lightly, "Of course, I'll call you on your Digivice when I've found a suitable sparring partner."
Spike smiled, "Thanks sis." before heading back out into Darkmoon City. He decided to check out Dark Area East, wanting to see some of the shops out there.
While Spike was shopping for Equipment, the storekeeper, Wizardmon asked him, "Hey, you're the Tamer who beat SkullBaluchimon, aren't you?"
Spike nodded, "Yes, that's me. Why?"
Wizardmon explained, "I have a friend who has a long-held grudge against SkullBaluchimon, and he's been looking for you ever since we heard about SkullBaluchimon being defeated by a Union Tamer. He's very eager to meet the Tamer who took down SkullBaluchimon."
Spike smiled lightly, "Well, what's your friend's name? I'd be happy to meet him."
"My friend is WaruSeadramon, and he's been hanging out in Loop Swamp to see if SkullBaluchimon would return for a rematch with you."
Spike's eyes widened when Wizardmon told him the Digimon looking for him was WaruSeadramon. "WaruSeadramon? You mean... the WaruSeadramon? The one who protected Darkmoon City from Lucemon?"
Wizardmon nodded, "The same one. He's been looking for a Tamer he deems worthy of being his partner, and when he heard about SkullBaluchimon's defeat at the hands of a Union Tamer, he seems to think he's finally found the one."
Spike smiled, "Well, I'll go see if I can find him in Loop Swamp." before heading out to the Dark Terminal to head to Loop Swamp.
As Spike explored the swamp to find WaruSeadramon. He saw a strange looking portal and walked over to it, "What is this? This wasn't here the last time we were here..." He thought to himself, "I can sense virus data coming from this portal... If I go into it, it's going to be tough in there." but nodded, "I have a feeling this will take me to WaruSeadramon, but I still have a bad feeling." before going into the portal.
When they arrived in a strange place, SkullMeramon came out and looked around, "This place... I've heard of places like these called Chaos Zones... I'm not sure this is a good idea boss. Gatomon hasn't have a vaccine strong enough to protect you from all the virus data in here."
Spike coughed loudly, "Yeah, that's why we should get to the other side quick." before running through the area as fast as he could before succumbing to the pain caused by the virus data. As he fell to the ground, he grabbed his head screaming in pain. "I can't take it anymore!"
Suddenly, another portal opened up and a voice from the other side said,, "Hurry up!"
Spike struggled to get to the other portal, nearly passing out as he fell into it. As he found himself back in Loop Swamp, he gasped for air and tried to sit up. Antylamon came out of her Digi-Card and told Spike, "Rest master, the Chaos Zone did a number on you."
The voice that came from the portal said, "Your partner is right. You need time to recover. Here, take this. It's some vaccine data. It won't cure you, but it'll get you on your feet."
Antylamon took the flash drive and inserted it into Spike, who finally caught his breath and could sit up. When he sat up, he saw the voice who helped them was WaruSeadramon, "WaruSeadramon!? You helped me?"
The sea-serpent Digimon nodded, "I'm sorry about the Chaos Zone. Had I known it would do this to you, I would never have opened it. I'll close it up right now." before shooting a beam of light into the portal, sealing it shut. "So, you must be the Tamer that defeated SkullBaluchimon. Again, I'm sorry about the Chaos Zone. I created it since I thought only the bravest Tamers would enter it. You're even braver than I was expecting considering what it did to you."
As Spike listened to WaruSeadramon, he nodded, "Yeah, SkullBaluchimon was still tough to beat though. Why are you so interested in that though?"
WaruSeadramon sighed, "SkullBaluchimon and I used to be partners, but when we were on a dangerous job, it was either saving me, or completing the job, and he betrayed my trust. I survived, barely, but I never forgave SkullBaluchimon, and I never will."
"Oh... I'd be angry with him too if it were me, someone who I considered a friend putting the mission over his friend. So, Wizardmon told me you were looking for a Tamer who you considered worthy of being your partner... Do you mean me?"
WaruSeadramon nodded, "Well, beating SkullBaluchimon is no easy feat. But I want to test you myself. Show me your power, those strange Digimon you use, I want to battle with them."
Spike gulped lightly, "Y-You want to battle Guerilladramon?"
WaruSeadramon nodded again, "Yes, he's the one who dealt the final blow, that's the one I want to face. Is there a problem?"
Spike sighed, "No, I don't mind that you want to face Guerilladramon, it's just... Guerilladramon isn't just a Digimon, him and I are the same being."
WaruSeadramon raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean? Are you saying that you are Guerilladramon?"
Spike nodded and explained, "I'm not fully human. A Digimon named Grimmon created me 20 years ago, I have human DNA, Draconian DNA, and some of Grimmon's DNA Data. That's why the Chaos Zone was causing so much trouble, it corrupts my internal data and causes me to exhibit symptoms of a bad cold. Guerilladramon is my Champion form, I first took that form in my battle against SkullBaluchimon. But I don't know how to achieve it again."
WaruSeadramon smirked, "Well, I happen to know of a special item that lets Digimon Digivolve instantly. I don't have one, but they form in the murkiest waters of Loop Swamp. Consider it a test, if you can find it and Digivolve to Guerilladramon, you'll be one step closer to proving yourself to me."
Spike nodded, "I'll do it!"
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
Spike made his way through the murky Loop Swamp. When he came to a pipe, he walked up to it and said, "This must be the way to the murkiest waters..." As he walked into the pipe and came out in the deep waters, he thought to himself, "I'll never understand how we manage to breathe while we're underwater."
As Spike made his way through the murky waters, he felt a strange presence creeping up on him before turning around to see an angry group of MetalPiranimon. He quickly tried to get out of their way, but the piranha-like Digimon were too fast, and he was forced to fight them.
As Antylamon and SkullMeramon came out of their Digi-Cards and attacked, Spike felt useless, as he couldn't Digivolve to Guerrilladramon and help defeat the Mega Digimon. Still, he tried to help by changing into Cupidramon and firing his Coupler Arrows.
Soon enough, the MetalPiranimon fled, but Spike still had a strange feeling. As he changed back to his human form, he asked Antylamon, "Does something feel strange about this place to you?"
Antylamon nodded, "Yes, something's definitely going on here. We'd best be on our guard."
Spike continued to move through the waters until he came up to a strange cluster of crystals. "These must be the things WaruSeadramon was talking about. They're Digi-Crystals, aren't they?"
SkullMeramon nodded, "Yeah, those are definitely Digi-Crystals. I didn't know they could help with Digivolution though."
"Wait, perhaps this is what WaruSeadramon was talking about." Antylamon moved some of the crystals and found a small stone. "Digi-Crystals don't help with Digivolution, but I've heard of these, they're called Digi-Stones. They're rare stones that form in unusual conditions."
Spike picked up the Digi-Stone and held it close to his chest, where he assumed his Digi-Core was. He could feel it warming his chest as he digivolved into Guerrilladramon. When he changed back to his human form, he felt that he could go back and forth between his human and champion forms. He smiled, "All right! Now let's go back to meet WaruSeadramon and tell him I can Digivolve into Guerrilladramon."
When Spike went back to see WaruSeadramon, the sea-serpent Digimon smiled lightly, "I assume you found the Digi-Stone. Well then, are you ready to fight me?"
Spike nodded and turned into Guerrilladramon, "Let's do this!" before jumping into battle with WaruSeadramon.
WaruSeadramon shot bolts of lightning at Spike from his horn, but they were easily avoided because of Guerrilladramon's speed with his jet pack. WaruSeadramon smirked, "Impressive, I can see why SkullBaluchimon had trouble against you."
Spike smiled back, "Yeah, but for the record, I had trouble against him in my Rookie form. Plus, I ended our battle with one hit after Wendigomon and Chionnmon weakened him already."
WaruSeadramon smiled, "Well, then you'd better do your best against me, since it's one on one." He shot more bolts of lightning out, and one of them actually hit Spike, causing him to land to reboot his flamethrower.
Spike groaned from the pain of the lightning, but continued to fight. He sent out two rockets from his rocket launcher. As the rockets hit WaruSeadramon, his flamethrower had fully rebooted and he took to the air again. He said, "Well, it's been fun, but I think it's time to wrap this up."
WaruSeadramon chuckled, "I was thinking the same thing. We've been at it for a while, and we're both running out of energy, this last attack will decide it. Maelstrom!"
As WaruSeadramon created a massive electrified tornado, Spike got ready and as he charged up his weapons, he yelled, "Ballistic Blowout!"
As the two attacks collided, it seemed as if they were at even strength, but the Maelstrom attack dissipated as Ballistic Blowout went through it, hitting WaruSeadramon. Spike went down to ground level as his Champion form fizzled out back to his human form. "You ok?"
As WaruSeadramon got itself up, it said, "Yeah, I knew you were strong and I was right. I'd be honored to be your partner. I'll send my scan data to your Digivice. Once you convert it, I'll be at your side until I turn into a Digi-Egg again." before diving into the water.
When Spike returned to Dark Terminal, his Digivice beeped and Twilight was calling, "Hey Spike, where'd you go? I just found you a sparring partner."
Spike grinned nervously, "Well, about that. WaruSeadramon was looking for me because I beat SkullBaluchimon, and I sparred with him. I can still spar with whoever you found though if you want me to."
Twilight's eyes widened, "Wait, you were sparring with the WaruSeadramon? The one who protected Darkmoon City from Lucemon?"
Spike chuckled, "I said the exact same thing when I found out he was looking for me, but yes."
Twilight sighed, "Well, if you can hold your own against him, you're sparring partner will be at a disadvantage. It's getting late anyway, so why don't you just head to your Tamer Home for now. Piedmon will let you know if I need you for anything. Have a nice night Spike."
Spike nodded, "Thanks sis, I'll see you in the morning." before heading back to his Tamer Home and scanning WaruSeadramon's data before heading to bed.
Meanwhile...
Grimmon was furious with SkullBaluchimon, "You idiot! How could you lose to that Tamer!? And you call yourself a top-notch mercenary!"
SkullBaluchimon growled, "Hey, it's not my fault you created that kid in the first place! His Champion form was crazy strong!"
Grimmon's eyes widened when SkullBaluchimon said Spike was in his Champion form, "What!? He's already gotten to his Champion form!?" He thought to himself, "The boy is progressing faster than I would have imagined, perhaps he may be more useful than I first thought." before saying to SkullBaluchimon, "Even though you failed, I'm a man of my word, I'll send the payment to your boss and give you the 10,000 bits up front we agreed on." before handing 10,000 bits to SkullBaluchimon.
SkullBaluchimon grumbled lightly, but nodded, "Well, I'll be off." before disappearing
Grimmon sighed, "Spike's Champion form... how did he reach it so quickly? Perhaps I miscalculated the growth of the NRG Virus in him. I must reassess. If Spike continues to grow at this rate, he'll grow to his Mega form before I can complete my plan..."
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
Spike had been training for a few days and was finally able to skip from his human form straight to Guerilladramon. He decided today would be a good day to test his skill at the Digi-Coliseum with the Bronze Tamer test. He went to the Union Room to go to Twilight and ask her, "Hey sis, I'm thinking of taking the Bronze Tamer test. I can skip Magidramon and jump straight to Guerrilladramon. Do you have any tips?"
Twilight smiled at her little brother and said, "Well, I could give you tips, but that'd be too easy. You have to pass the test on your own. I can tell you a bit about it though. The test consists of three parts, a written test, an obstacle course, and a battle. You have to pass all three parts in order to become a Bronze Tamer, well, technically 2 out of 3 will get you a passing grade, but I expect flying colors from you."
Spike gulped, when it came to exams, Twilight was an all or nothing kind of person, "I'll try my best sis." before heading back to Dark Terminal to go to the Digi-Coliseum. When he arrived, he went up to Leomon and said, "Hey Leomon, I'm here to take the Bronze Rank Exam."
Leomon smiled, "Good luck then, I'll sign you up, then go to the Night Claw waiting room to take the written exam."
Spike handed over the entry fee of 800 bits, and then headed in. When he arrived, Chrysalimon was waiting for him and said, "Welcome to the written test Spike. The test contains 50 questions, and you have one hour to complete it." before laying a stack of papers on a table.
Spike sat down and started on the test. The first questions were easy, but as the test continued, the questions got harder and harder. He thought to himself, "What is the alternate X-Antibody evolution of MegaSeadramon… MetalSeadramon is the normal evolution... GigaSeadramon! That's right!" before writing it down on the paper.
After the timer went off, Chrysalimon told Spike, "Time's up Spike, pencil down." After Spike put his pencil down, Chrysalimon took the papers and put them in a machine. The machine graded his test and when it gave the results, Chrysalimon said, "Good job, you passed with a 95%."
Spike smiled, "So, next up is the obstacle course, is it for me or my Digimon?"
Chrysalimon explained, "It's for both of you. You and one of your Digimon must both clear the obstacle course together in five minutes or less. What Digimon would you like to use?"
Spike thought about what Digimon he should use for the obstacle course. He decided to go with Antylamon and let her out of her Digi-Card, "Antylamon, we're running the Bronze Obstacle Course together. Are you ready?"
Antylamon nodded, "Ready when you are." before following Spike to the obstacle course. There were lots of different obstacles, and she was slightly worried if she could do this in less than five minutes.
Spike and Antylamon stood side by side before the starter's pistol went off and started running. First was swinging sandbags, trying to knock them off a balance beam into water. Antylamon was able to dodge them with ease, but Spike got knocked into the water, before swimming back and doing it a second time.
The second obstacle was having to crawl underneath a fishing net without getting stuck. Spike was able to crawl through, thanks to his small size, but Antylamon's fur got caught in the netting, and she needed Spike's help to get out.
The third and final obstacle was a rock wall. But by the time they were halfway up the wall, a buzzer went off, meaning the five minutes had gone by. Antylamon and Spike jumped down from the rock wall, and Spike sighed, "Damn... I guess we both have room to improve."
Antylamon kissed Spike's cheek, "Don't worry master, we still have the battle left, I'm sure with me, WaruSeadramon, and your Guerrilladramon form, I'm sure we can win.
Spike smiled and kissed Antylamon's cheek back, "Thanks, you're right." before heading back to the waiting room to meet the ref and tell him he was ready.
As he walked into the Battle Arena, Spike saw Lyra Heartstrings, the exam supervisor, who said, "Well, looks like you've made it this far Spike. I have to admit, this is my first day as an exam supervisor, I just recently became a Bronze Tamer, so let's go!"
Spike nodded, "Right! Let's do this!" before turning straight into Guerrilladramon, and sending out Antylamon and WaruSeadramon.
Lyra was shocked to see Spike turn into a Digimon and said, "I thought all that gossip about you was just... well gossip. Seems I was wrong, Shadramon, Magnamon, let's do this!" before sending out her two Armor Digivolved Digimon.
As the fight started, Magnamon sent a burst of light at WaruSeadramon, who countered by shooting lightning from his horn. Antylamon used her Treasure Axes to out speed Shadramon and get behind him before blasting an orb of dark energy at him, KOing him instantly, after his confusion from trying to keep up with Antylamon weakened him.
Spike jumped up in the air and activated his jet pack before yelling, "Ballistic Blowout!"
Magnamon looked up at Spike saying, "He wouldn't dare fire his Ballistic Blowout from that angle, he'll destroy the Coliseum if he does!" As Spike's weapons started to heat up, Magnamon cringed, "No, Spike!" All of a sudden, Spike disappeared, and reappeared right in front of Magnamon, and as his eyes widened, he said, "Oh... crap baskets!" before being hit head on with the point blank Ballistic Blowout, and being knocked out.
Lyra's eyes widened as well from the recoil of Spike's attack, and as she saw her Magnamon turn back into a Veemon, she stuttered before saying "Holy shit! I didn't know your Digimon form was that powerful! Still, you won fair and square. You and I are both Bronze Tamers. Talk to Leomon for your reward and license upgrade."
Spike headed back to Leomon who congratulated him, "Good job Spike, I just finished upgrading your license, and here's your reward, three Battle Chips, Life Aura, Mirror Shield, and Pressure Cannon." before handing Spike three SD card like chips.
Spike smiled, these were rare Battle Chips, so he could get even more skilled with these. "Thanks Leomon, I'll see you around." before heading back to tell Twilight, even though he knew she'd be sour about him failing the obstacle course. "Sis, I did it, I passed!"
Twilight smiled, "Good job Spike, I'm proud of you. Now that you're a Bronze Tamer, you have access to the Chip Shops here in the City and at Dark Area East. Keep up the good work."
Spike nodded before heading back home for the night.
Spike's Adventure through the Digital World (Dusk Edition)
Spike made his way to the Dark Gate to head out to Sunken Tunnel when the degenerated guards stopped him, "You there! Come over here." When they saw it was Spike, the guard apologized, "Oh, it's you Spike. Sorry about that, I thought you were going to force your way through like those other three."
The other guard nodded, "It's dangerous out there, I hope those three kids are alright. If the virus impacted the Digi-Areas, there's no telling how hostile the Digimon might be. Spike, I don't know where those three are heading, but please, make sure they get home safe."
Spike sighed to himself, he knew that it was Thorax, Iron Will, and Starlight Glimmer, who else could it be? But he nodded and told the guards, "Don't worry, I will." He stepped on to the warp pad to Dark Terminal and saw the others getting on the warp pad to outside. When they were gone, Spike ran over to the tamer who was trying to stop them and asked, "Do you know where those three were heading?"
The tamer nodded, "They said they were going to Sunken Tunnel. Chief Twilight told me that you were going out there, so I can't argue, but I'm going to report those three to Chief Twilight."
Spike nodded, "Thanks." he sighed and got on the warp pad and selected Sunken Tunnel as his destination. When he got there, he soon saw Starlight Glimmer and walked over to her, "Starlight! What the hell do you think you're doing, disobeying orders like that!?"
Starlight jumped when she heard Spike, "O-Oh... it's just you Spike... I-I'm sorry, I just wanted to help, but me and the boys got separated, and now I don't know what to do."
Spike sighed, "I know, but you of all people should know orders are orders. Head back home, don't argue, just do it."
Starlight Glimmer nodded, "You're right, I'll only be a liability here. I'll head home now." before going back to the warp panel back to the city.
Spike continued his way into the tunnel, but had a problem with a large Digimon called Chionmon , a crab-like Digimon with razor sharp claws and an igloo shell it could pull itself into if the need arose. Normally you'd see Chionmon in cold places, similar to how you wouldn't find a polar bear in Saddle Arabia in the real world. What could a Digimon like this be doing in the Sunken Tunnel? And more importantly, how was he supposed to get past it? If Candlemon and Lopmon were still in their Ultimate forms, it wouldn't be too much trouble, but that wasn't the case. He gulped and knocked on the igloo shell of the Digmon, causing it to come out and yawn, "Huh...? Why is it so hot here?"
Spike gulped and told Chionmon, "Sorry to disturb your nap, but I think you're in the wrong habitat. You're in Sunken Tunnel. Do you know how you got here?"
The Chionmon's eyes widened when he was told he was in Sunken Tunnel, "Sunken Tunnel!? No wonder it's so hot here! I can't deal with this. Thanks for letting me know though. Here, have my scan data. If you ever need help, I'd be happy to pay you back for letting me know where I am. Well, I'd better get out of here before my shell starts melting." before heading off.
As the Chionmon left, Spike sighed in relief until his Digivice beeped, alerting him that he had collected enough of Chionmon's data to Digiconvert the data into a physical Digimon. "That went better than I thought it would. Maybe the virus that attacked the city did this, I can't think of any other explanation." He continued through the tunnels, hoping he wouldn't run into more out of place Digimon.
As Spike walked through the tunnels, he heard growling and saw Iron Will and Thorax up against a Raremon. The Raremon growled, "Are you mocking me? Did you really think you could beat me with such weak skills?"
Thorax gulped, "Iron Will, we don't stand a chance! We should just apologize and beg for mercy."
Spike snickered, "A Night Claw never gives up, and you two are no different. But, considering your Digimon are out of commission, I'll do this."
Thorax smiled when he saw Spike, "Spike! Thank god you're here! Help us out!"
Spike stepped up to the Raremon and said, "You want my friends, you have to go through me."
The Raremon roared, "Stop mocking me!" and attacked
During the battle, Dracmon was jumping from side to side as he avoided Raremon's attacks, and suddenly, he started glowing, "Dracmon Digivolve to... Sangloupmon!"
Spike's eyes widened, "Sweet! Dracmon digivolved into Sangloupmon, a Champion Digimon! Now, Sangloupmon, Sticker Blade!" Sangloupmon fired thousands of tiny blades that struck the Raremon, knocking it out.
After the battle, Raremon shook his 'head' and said, "Huh? What's going on? Was I... fighting you? No, that can't be right. I must have caught a virus... sorry for any trouble I caused in my sleep. I'm out." before leaving the tamers.
Thorax sighed in relief, "Thanks Spike, we-"
Iron Will growled, interrupting Thorax, "We could have won on our own Spike! Don't butt in!" before running off to the warp panel back to the terminal.
Thorax sighed, "Sorry about him Spike, he never knows when to swallow his pride. But I'm sure he's really thankful. It's embarrassing, but we'll just have to suck it up and apologize to Chief Twilight." he followed Iron Will back to the Terminal, and Spike went after them.
When Spike got back to the Union Room, ChaosGallantmon was furious when he was told that the three Tamers disobeyed orders. Twilight calmed him down, "ChaosGallantmon, don't you think you're being a bit too harsh? I think they learned their lesson. However, ChaosGallantmon's anger is not without good reason. As punishment, you three will be doing Spike's, Garble's, and Gabby's server work, as well as your own."
Iron Will groaned, "Man, not again! I hate server checks!"
Thorax scoffed, "Then maybe you'd rather go back to Sunken Tunnel, on your own, without Spike or any of us to help you!"
Iron Will's eyes widened, "N-No way man! I'm not going through that again!"
Starlight Glimmer crossed her arms, "You think you had it bad? At least you two knew where each other were! Those two idiots completely ditched me!"
The group laughed before the three tamers went back to the server work. Twilight sighed when they left to go back to work, "Spike, thank you for making sure those three got home safely. For now, we've confirmed that the Digi-Areas have also been impacted by the virus. Right now, there's not much else we can do, but if we do need you, Piedmon will let you know in Dark Center. Dismissed!"
