The group searches the area, looking for an entrance into the assumed underground lair. Eva brought up a good point about looking for a back door. "I don't know if they would have one or not. Besides, if things get crazy, Stingmon can always Digivolve again. The entrance has to be large enough for Terriermon's giant robot to squeeze through." After searching for a while longer, Tokomon falls into a large hole, hidden under some bushes. Stingmon comes over and checks the hole out. "This definitely looks like an entrance. Down the rabbit hole we go."
The gang jumps into the hole. There's a dark path leading to what must be the secret base. Stingmon, being the toughest Digimon around at the moment, walks down the path, until he encounters a large metal door. "Bingo! Okay, Yokomon, he we come!" Stingmon charges his energy cannon, and fires a powerful blast at the door. It hardly scratches it. Stingmon charges up his energy spike and tries to bust through, to no success. "Well, I'm out of ideas. We got to find a way past this door." Dante wonders what sort of artillery Terriermon has in store for any would-be intruders.
He could be armed to the teeth with all sorts of turrets and laser grids. This was all pretty advanced for a Digimon crime lord. The only thing Dante was certain of is that they were going to make Terriermon pay. "This is strange. Terriermon said he would return Yokomon if we stayed out of his fur for a while. Did he really expect us to take his word for it?" "I don't care what kind of goons he's got guarding his base. Once we turn that stupid little rabbit inside out, this might make a great location for my ice cream factory." "For the last time, you're never going to have your own ice cream factory! We'll buy all the ice cream you can eat as soon as we save Yokomon and stop bunny brain once and for all."

Timothy hopped down the rabbit hole after Tokomon and looked around, "Hopefully we won't be in huge trouble..." He stood next to Dante with Tokomon rushing ahead, ready to move through any security systems. Timothy sighed and said, "Tokomon, wait up, no point in getting captured yourself."
"Yeah, but-"
"No. You're gonna slow down."
"Why?"
"Because, if you don't, you get captured yourself and that's no fun or helpful to the cause, now is it?"
"No..."
Timothy was glad to have gotten through fairly quickly and said, "Alright, Tokomon, we'll find Yokomon, we just need some more time."
"I know."
"Good." That ended well, now they just had to get through this bunker and find the little in training.

Eva peeks down the hole, before climbing down and being confronted by that large solid looking door.
"Unless anyone has thermite or some sort of breaching charge capable of going through a solid reinforced door, I can't see a way through this. Damn thing looks like it could stop a tank shell."
The cyborg started looking around for a way of getting in, perhaps they were stupid enough to leave the equivilant of the keys under the proverbial doormat? Or leave an access code somewhere?

No one seems to have any idea how to get past the door. Dante looks around for any kind of secret switch, but has no luck. Stingmon gets an idea. "Alright, let me try something. Everybody out of the hole!" Dante's digivice starts to glow. Stingmon digivolves to the giant Spider Queen Archnemon. "Let's see if my Spider Bomb does the trick." Everyone climbs back out of the hole. Luckily, there's some steps dug out in the side of the entrance that act as a ladder.
Archnemon goes up to the door, and plops down a Spider Bomb from her abdomen. Archnemon quickly dashes up out of the hole. A loud explosion can be heard, with lots of dirt flying out of the top of the hole. Archnemon goes back down to check on the door. "It worked! Oh ya, let's here it for the Spider Queen!" The explosion was enough to blast the door loose. The group goes back down and continues through the rabbit hole.
Once past the door, they reach a large round room, what looks like the inside of a tower. Stairs wrap around the walls, leading down, with several doors along the way. To fall off down the middle would mean certain death. "Alright, which way do we go now?" "I guess we just start picking doors." Archnemon goes first, crawling down the steps to reach one of the doors. They approach one of the doors and walk through, entering a small armory full of ammunition and spare parts for Terriermon's bunny bots. "Oooh, stalk up now while you can."
Archnemon tries another door. They enter a very large wide open room. "What's this?" Archnemon walks into the center of the room and looks around. "What is this room used for? Deploying robots? House parties?" Several large turrets emerge from the floor. "Uh oh..."

Timothy follows Archnemon through the first room after the door is blown up, and shrugs, he doesn't know how to use a weapon. Tokomon continues on as well. In the second room, the pair walks in after Dante and Archnemon come in and looks around, confused, "This is empty..."
"Yeah, why would anyone have a room this empty?"
Just then, the turrets appear, "Heeeeey... Lets go out of here."
"Good idea Timothy!"
They both run out of the room and behind the walls and Tokomon shouts, "Archnemon, you have this!" Timothy nods in agreement as they both duck for cover.

That armoury was like Christmas for Eva, if Christmas had a whole lot more firepower and Santa Claus' sleigh was actually an A-10 Warthog made out of even more guns that shot missiles which in turn shot even more bullets. In short, it was bloody perfect. The cyborg quickly stocked up on all the supplies it could, walking out of there with a serious firepower boost in the form of a half assembled rabbit bot arm, which was essentially just an LMG by this point, seeing as it had all its armour and arm parts stripped. Heavy for sure, and maybe not the best choice for such close quarters but hey, it was a big gun for big problems, and the current situation certainly seemed like a big problem indeed. Besides, not like they hadn't been detected already. May as well make some noise.
Eva stacks up against the door Archnemon just walked through, strategically scanning around with her newly acquired weapon pointed and ready to go. "Room clear. Maybe this is... Crap! Take cover!"
the cyborg quickly let off a burst from her weapon while backing off as quickly as possible, trying to disable the turrets before they could open up on them!

Archnemon crawls up the wall and dashes across the ceiling, shooting razor sharp Spider Threads down below to rip through the turrets. Several of the turrets aim up, trying to hit the Spider Queen, while others target the door, pinning the rest of the group down. Archnemon is hit by several rounds, but due to her exoskeleton, the damage is reduced. The turrets going off triggers an alarm. Terriermon turns his attention to the intruders. "What's this?! Those fools found my secret hideout? Well, this rabbit has claws! Wuhuhahaha!"
Terriermon goes over to the base's command console, and sends in additional forces. Large bay doors on the other side of the room open up. Two large war machines roll out, part tank, part cybernetic. The upper part appears like the torso of a large robot, and they are equipped with grenade launchers on either side. "Crap, that's not good!" One of the war machines locks onto Archnemon and fires some grenades. The explosion deals heavy damage to the spider Digimon, sending them falling to the floor below.
Dante watches from the other side of the doorway. "Damn! Archnemon's going to be blown to pieces. We need reinforcements to deal with this much machinery." Archnemon dashes across the floor in a zigzag pattern, going up to one of the war machines. She bites down on its head. The other war machine launches several grenades over, damaging both Archnemon and the other machine. The turrets continue firing at anything that moves besides the other machines deployed.
Terriermon watches the battle from the monitor, taking delight in the carnage. "Now I'm glad those bozos found my base. I get to watch them explode!" Terriermon turns and looks at Yokomon, trapped inside a small energy cage. Terriermon lights up a cigar and takes a puff. "You know, this is all your fault! If I did not capture you, they wouldn't be risking their lives trying to save your pathetic hide! Mu ha haha!"

Timothy watched at Archnemon wiped out the first wave of turrets, in awe, he had never actually seen an ultimate level digimon truly at work. He held a happy smile on his face due to how well this was going. That was, until the war machines came into play and ruined everything for them. Now that they were on the receiving end of this, he peeked his head out, only to see Archnemon being blown to pieces and sighs, "If only I could do more..."
He popped his head out, only to be met by the bots looking at him menacingly, as he slowly moved his head back behind the wall, they slowly looked away. Shortly, thereafter, Tokomon ran out barking like a dog at one of the great machines, strafing to avoid the shots, to... Some success. Timothy shouted out while Tokomon did this, "Wait! Tokomon!" Tokomon continues rushing at the hulking robot, strafing his way over, not even listening to Timothy now.

Uh oh. As if turrets weren't enough, now they were facing down two full on tanks. Tanks fused with monstrous robotic torsos instead of a turret, flinging grenades all over the room. "Incoming enemy armour!... Argh!" Shrapnel from the grenades was flying everywhere, one stray fragment tearing into Eva! Luckily, her dragonskin dermal armour was designed to withstand such impacts, and all that hit seemed to do was rupture one of the non Newtonian fluid cells, seeping a "blood" like liquid into her clothing.
With only light damage, Eva managed to easily activate her cloak, a subtle orange glow rippling across the digimon's body as she seemed to disappear into thin air mid stride, rapidly closing the distance on the enemy vehicles, managing to get around behind one of them and jumping up onto the engine deck before locking on, sighting in her weapon at the back of one of the monstrosities' heads and firing, the strong muzzleflash disrupting the cloak!

Things didn't look good. If it was just one of these war machines, Archnemon wouldn't have a problem taking them out. While much stronger than a bunny bot, they couldn't stand up against the power of an Ultimate. But with two of them, and multiple turrets firing, this battle felt overwhelming. At least Eva has a cloaking device. But now Tokomon was running out into the firefight. One grenade and *Kaboom!* Back to egg form. Archnemon had to do something to ensure that they stayed safe.
Archnemon crawls up on top of one of the war machines and grabs it from behind. They pull back on the machine's head and torso, and stand on the tank-like base. Archnemon rips the torso right off, and tosses the remains at the other war machine. Archnemon uses Spider's Layer, creating a large web all around the room. The other war machine gets caught in the web, unable to move. (Thinking) "Great job, Archnemon. They will be stuck in the web, and you'll be able to move faster." Archnemon dashes across the web and goes over to Tokomon. They lower one of their legs and let Tokomon hop on. Archnemon places Tokomon on her back, out of danger.
Terriermon is not pleased. "Gahhh! My war machine! Rrrrr, I hate you, you stupid spider!" Terriermon activates another security measure. The lights in the room start to shine very bright. They flash on and off a few times, temporarily blinding Archnemon. "Hey! Where did everybody go?!" The turrets continue unloading fire, slowly depleting Archnemon's health. The remaining war machine tries to move, but only gets more caught in the web. "There! Now what are you going to do, fools?! Your best fighter can't see anything!"

Things certainly were looking like they were getting worse, indeed. However, Tokomon, on the back of Archnemon as able to mostly shield himself from the flashes and quickly jumped off of Archnemon's back and onto one of the turrets, biting into it, trying very hard to get through it. As this is happening Timothy is letting out a great sigh, knowing that Tokomon is gonna get himself killed. He covered his eyes, not wanting to watch that little Digimon go back to egg form already.
Tokomon eventually tore into one of the turrets and started severing wires as Timothy's digivice's screen started to glow once more. Tokomon sudden got on two feet and... Turned into an falcon thing in a ninja suit, also known as Falcomon, "Yeah-ha! Finally, lets have some fun! Yokomon style!" Timothy started hearing something different from the battle and saw Falcomon, "Oh..." Falcomon raced to another turret and unleashed a ninja blade on it, cutting into the back and taking it out, still ignoring the massive war machine stuck in the web, he'd get to that later.
Nyokimon had been quite dizzy from hitting a cage and only just recovered, hearing what Terriermon said earlier, she shouted, "You're just an ugly bunny! Get in here and lets go paw toe thing to seed bottom!" The effect of the digivolution of Tokomon to Falcomon seemed to affect Nyokimon and she suddenly reappeared as Yokomon and then shouted, "See, now let's go weird paw toe thing to flower feet thing!" She blasted a few bubbles towards Terriermon as a challenge, and hopefully to annoy or injure him.

Webs! Not good! Eva nearly falls off the hostile tank, almost dropping her heavy weapon before regaining her balance. The webs would be a major problem for the cyborg, because not only could they tangle her like anyone else, they could easily get caught in robotic joints, locking them solid and therefore causing the motors and artificial muscles to overheat and potentially fail!
She clings tighter to the war machine, falling in these webs would not be good... Oh crap! She barely ducks out of the way of a flying robotic torso, the breeze knocking her hood off! Right now though Eva had bigger problems than hiding her cybernetic appearance, despite that hood not exactly doing much in the first place. Namely, the big scary armoured vehicle she was riding on the back of.
Just as she was lining up to engage again, suddenly the lights went crazy! Eva's HUD flickers and glitches out, the optics not able to compensate for the sudden light changes, warnings popping up everywhere about optical sensor miscalculations, aperture errors, white balance errors etc, temporarily blinding and disorientating her, before the optics reboot and recalculate for the current light levels.
After regaining her balance, she moves up even closer to the torso, and rams the barrel of her weapon as deeply as it could go into whatever cooling vent, hatch, vulnerable looking opening or weakly armoured looking spot she could find, before opening up, spraying bullets into the potential vulnerability, hoping to disable or destroy as many systems as possible!

With Archnemon temporarily out of action, the other Digimon stepped up to the plate. Tokomon digivolved to Falcomon and took out some of the turrets. After some of her sensors failing from the blinding lights, Eva jammed her firearm into the back of the remaining war machine and unloaded rounds directly into its interior. The damage is severe enough to disable multiple vital motors and gears, cutting off the power flow from the internal battery. The war machine slowly shuts down.
Archnemon's vision returns, and she looks around the room to see them kicking butt. "Wait, did we win?" The Digimon take out the remaining turrets, and Archnemon's web starts to fall apart. Dante is psyched they were able to get past the defenses. "Alright, you guys! Are you watching that, Terriermon? We're coming to getcha!" Terriermon is most displeased. He turns back and faces a taunting Yokomon. "You my have a big mouth, but I'll just have to bring in the big guns to kill your friends! And after I make you watch, I'm flushing you down the toilet, where you'll spend the rest of your life hopping around in the sewer system! Muhuhahaha!"
Dante walks into the room and looks around. He sees the large bay doors that the war machines came in from. "I guess that's as good of place as any to keep on going. Hopefully we've already dealt with the worst of Terriermon's defense system." Archnemon can't maintain her Ultimate form any longer, and devolves all the way down to Minomon. "Ooh, that battle took a lot out of me. Can we get something to eat once we discombobulate Terriermon?" "Sure, little buddy. It won't be much longer now. We're coming for you, bunny!"

Timothy watches as Falcomon wipes out a few turrets and smiles, "Terriermon better start running..." Falcomon races back to him and says, "We did it! Now lets go get ourselves a rabbit's foot!" Timohty laughs before turning to Dante, watching Archnemon go back into Minomon, "I'm guessing he isn't in any condition to fight anymore... So welcome back to my daily life!" He then turns back out the door and moves onto the next door down the stairs.
Yokomon sticks her tongue out at Terriermon, "Your bunny army is nothing to my currently big brother, the... Robot... Thing?" She takes a quick look at Eva through the screen and moves her entire body around a little bit thinking of what it was, "Whatever she is! And Spider lad- I mean little guy about my size!" She bounces in the air a little blowing flower shaped bubbles at Terriermon, "Now come at me! I dare you!"

Seems those turrets were now out of action! With the webs dissipating into thin air, Eva jumps clear of the ruined tank which was still smouldering and billowing smoke into the room, its ammunition popping and sizzling away. That weapon in her hands was feeling rather light, readouts were showing empty. She drops the magazine and slots in a new one, just in case any more hostiles show up as she regrouped with the rest of the team.
"Enemy armour neutralised. We need to find this wanker and finish the job ASAP."
Eva nods at the mention of the bay doors, taking cover by the doorway, ready to peek out and blast any hostiles who were in the next room.
