That Terriermon likely would have fared much better if he had remained in the trash can. Why? Because the moment he revealed himself, Akemi found herself letting out a squee. It seems this fell under the things that triggered her weakness to cute things. She walked towards the little Terriermon.
"It's fine, she was just kidding. Um...We're looking for a friend of ours, he got lost. He was a..." "Mamemon." "That. He was a Mamemon...Could you tell me about the evil bird woman? Did you see where she went?" Akemi, for all intents and purposes, was trying to be kind to the little Terriermon, and get some information out of him.
Being nice to people usually leads them to give you what you want, right?

The Terriermon still looked a little scared even if Akemi seemed way nicer now, hearing her squee the little digimon lower his hands and hide his face behind his ears, tho the nicer approach and sweet voice of Akemi help the... Dog?... Rabbit? To feel at ease "Oh? You're friends with that Mamemon? He came out of nowhere and help me an my friend... But it was quickly knocked out" The Terriermon was shaking and almost crying "Me and my friend Lumiere the Meramon were on our way to the mercenary guild to employ some body guards when a group of Troopmon assault us, we were able to defend ourselves but we are not fighters then the Mamemon appear and gave us a hand but the evil bird woman appear and knocked both out I hid on a trash can hoping they didn't saw me" They? There was more? come to think about it there was actually one more figure that took Meramon when it was out but what digimon was it? "She had a partner a big muscular digimon with three heads! And then the little puppy just started crying And while the little digimon cried a figure loomed in the background, heavy mechanical footsteps could be heard and soon Akemi, Anzu and Gurren would see what it seemed to be a digimon covered in a rubber body and gas mask, it was a single Troopmon most likely send to either finish the job or hide the clues that they were there
As for Leo and Lagann follow the trail of feathers but sadly any trail that could be follow was cut short due to a small TV like digimon burning them... "Stop right there!" The German shouted, this could be the only trail they have and this ninja wannabe was burning them "Lagann initiate Battle routine!
After that order Solarmon X float to be in front of the Monitamon and spin its drills waiting for the attack order

Huh, they had only known this Terriermon for all of ten seconds and he already provided some valuable insight as to what had happened here. Akemi and Anzu folded their arms as they listened to the Terriermon, before Akemi went and knelt down to pet the little guy. It was mostly an attempt to calm him down. "So there's more than one culprit involved..." Akemi murmured, before both the tamer and her digimon looked up at the sudden noise.
Anzu quickly turned and glared at the oncoming Troopmon. "Wow, you sure look like shit! I bet your Ogremon of a mom's really proud of smashing a bunch of parts together and calling it a Digimon, eh?" This was Tsukaimon's bread and butter, an insult so vile that it actually caused pain, and also the target to shed tears. The Monitamon had honestly wondered what would happen if he had just burnt the feathers or smoked them rather than just...disintegrating them like he normally would. Unfortunately, this experiment was cut short by the timely arrival of a blonde lady and an ugly-looking Hagurumon that looked like it got dipped in orange juice.
He turned to face Leo and Lagann, the monitor on his face showing a face most cursed (it was an oWo, for the uneducated), before he raised a hand, lightning crackling through it as a shuriken formed within it. "Initiating gang-speak: Whatchu want, busters?"
Yep, this was definitely a ninja wannabe.

Akemi had a good idea by petting the Terriermon as it help him to calm down a little, he was still shaking and scared but at least he wasn't crying anymore, tho the arrival of the Troopmon made the little puppy to run and hide behind Akemi and why wouldn't he? He knew that figure very well, after all it was working with the evil bird lady
Anzu's words seem to hit deep on the rubber suit digimon, so much that Troopmon lower his gaze and hunch over, surely he would be crying if he could, what did the digimon did to deserve such treatment? Sure he was an amalgamation of evil energy in a rubber suit but that doesn't mean he doesn't have feelings too!
"Target located, also found hostile specimens, initializing fighting protocol!" The Troopmon raise his head again looking directly at Anzu, the eyes on the gas mask shinning with a bright red and the metallic claws on it's hand sparking with electricity "Surrender now or face the consequences" Troopmon strength was in numbers so one by itself probably wouldn't provoke too much fear specially after seeing the reaction to the bean's mean words, but it shouldn't be too hard to take down a Tsukaimon, a Human, a Terriermon and a weird looking Hagurumon, right? Yeah Troopmons weren't that brilliant
As for Eleonora and Lagann the expression made by the Monitamon sure got a reaction out of the German, first confusion and then annoyance as it felt like the thing was mocking her, and when it spoke the blonde went back to confusion as she honestly didn't understand a word the tv ninja said
"We were following the track of those feathers, but since you burned them we'll have to use you, cooperate and tell us where is the nearest entrance to Old Terminus"
"Also please lower the electric Shurkien or we will have to use force to stop you" Added Lagann, surely the phrase of the Solarmon X won't help much but being honest Eleonora wasn't being nice either

While Akemi held the Terriermon close, Anzu just grinned and continued her verbal assault of the Troopmon. This rubber-suited dingus walked into the wrong neighborhood to look edgy and be threatening, and she was gonna make him pay with his dignity for that. "Oh, what's that? You think you can fight? You think you can fight ME? Did you get dropped on your head as a baby?" Meanwhile?
Akemi had the bright idea of grabbing the Terriermon and running for cover. Hopefully the Hagurumon X would help keep that Troopmon away! The Monitamon's oWo became a rather angry-looking ÒwÓ as this hhhhhuman and her companions dared to question him. "Error! Bustas not allowed! Yeet shalt not passeth!" He cried, before he threw his shuriken towards the...ground?
...The shuriken began to beep. Ominously. Before it emitted a bright flash of light! It was likely meant to blind the group, and if they turned away in time? Then they could definitely avoid that. Or covered their eyes. What the Monitamon didn't realize is that they could still hear him, so him promptly screaming as he ran up to try decking the Solarmon in the face was...
Not wise. At all. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" What was wrong with this thing? Holy shit.

The Troopmon wasn't having a nice time to say the least, he just came to clean the place up and hide any indication that a fight went down here, instead he founds a Tsukaimon with a bad attitude that doesn't stop verbally assaulting him, which enraged even more the ruber suited mon
"Hostile specimen refuses to give up, starting battle engagement" As he pronounce this words the Troopmon run towards the flying bean with his claw sparking with electricity
He jumped ready to strike but in his blind charge induced by rage he forgot one little key element... Anzu was not alone and as soon as the masked digimon jumped he heard the sound of something being shot in his direction 2 drills to be exact and being in the air meant that there was no way he could dodge them.
The drills impacted on the digimon and with a small explosion the Troopmon fly and crashed against the wall bouncing back to the floor
"It does not seem to be a very brilliant enemy, should we capture or delete? Awaiting orders" The gear said looking at Akemi, if Eleonora is not present the leadership goes to the next human in charge, that's how the logic of the gears go as to who follow in this situations
That said the Troopmon stood up and was looking at both mons now thinking carefully of what will he do next, definitely giving more than enough time for Akemi to think or Anzu to strike.
Well it seemed that talking with the Monitamon was not going to be possible as the TV kept his "gangstah" speech and attack throw its shuriken at them, or at least that was what Leo expected when the Shurkien landed in the ground both German and orange gear looked confused it wasn't until it started beeping that the Blonde understood and quickly cover her eyes, if only she would've order that to her partner.
"Visibility at 0%, unable to see target" Lagann said after the flash of light blind him, of course he was still able to hear and so localized the Screaming Monitamon running towards him
"Right in front of you, activate Crashing Device!" If the Solarmon X didn't had any doubts before now it was blatantly obvious where the ninja was thanks to the order of its general and without a second though the gear shoot its drills

Anzu had to think fast when she was confronted with a Troopmon lunging straight for her, and think fast she did. The bean used her agility (of which she had plenty of in this form) to dart out of the way of the Troopmon. Luckily for her, she had a gear on her side, and this gear packed a huge punch with those drills.
Akemi would think quickly, before pulling out and slashing a card, namely...Commander's Rifle. Anzu reached up as she pulled out a particular firearm from seemingly out of nowhere. This...Was a rifle. One she aimed right at the Troopmon. "Alright, you ugly floorstain! You're gonna tell us everything you know about what happened here or I'm gonna give you lethal lead poisoning!" And as if to capitalize on her threat? She fired a few warning shots at the ground.
That. Was noisy. That. Was probably not wise. The Monitamon had not been the brightest tool in the shed. If he was to blind a target, then perhaps he should've remained silent. The gear shot his drills out and they struck the Monitamon...dead on, actually! He was sent flying back, but he did have another trick up his sleeve, as he threw a kunai for the Solarmon before he hit the ground and...rolled back a bit.
Ouch. Would Lagann be able to dodge in time? Leo could definitely warn him about that!

Troopmon was now cornered against the wall but the rubber suited digimon was still optimistic that he had a chance, that was until the purple bean pull out a freaking rifle... Yeah not a good spot to be in now to make matters worst the little thing was a happy trigger shooting a few rounds to the ground.
"Please, do not" The Troopmon raised his hands in the air instinctively, the eyes on the gas mask went from crimson red t light blue "I wasn't here on the first incursion, I just saw Harpymon and Asuramon come to the base with some digimon and then the boss ask me to clean any proof that something happen" He said shaking and probably would be crying if he was able to "Please don't make noise we don't need more witness"
"What digimon did Harpymon and Asuramon brought?" Gurren asked
"There was a Meramon, a couple of Poromon, a lousy Shoutmon that I'm sure will be deleted if keeps being so annoying and a Mamemon X"
"That's my friend!" Terriermon say when he hear Meramon being mentioned
"And the Mamemon X is Kamina"
With those confirmations there was only one thing left to do, find an entrance to Old Terminus and the hideout of this Troopmon's group
As for Leo and Lagann things looked good than what the blonde would've expected, even if Solarmon X was blinded with her order and the screaming monitor the gear was able to hit its target with its drills, tho the Monitamon didn't look like dropping without putting a fight as when it was sent flying the ninja threw a Kunai at the gear
"That thing has counter attack move out of the way, Lagann" The German ordered and the gear float to the right barely dodging the Kunai that landed just some meters near Eleonora, now she was thinking that she should've move out of the way too... Nonetheless the girl had a new plan, she decided to test her new chips for fight. "Lagann the enemy is at your 10!"
"Roger!" The gear turn in the opposite direction of the clock until it face the Monitamon again
Eleonora then loaded the Dokugumon on her digivice which send a stream of data towards the Solarmon X, who quickly open its mouth and release a net to capture its foe

Was the creature truly begging for it's life solely because it had been outnumbered? A wise move, to be sure, but also quite the cowardly. He -also- had confirmed a number of things that could be useful to the group in the near future. Anzu kept the rifle leveled. "Okay, I won't, but I'm not putting the gun down."
...Okay. Akemi clearly needed to step in here. "So, you know where they're being held, don't you? Lead us there, then." She decided, plain and simple. Would the Troopmon comply? The Monitamon was trying to desperately get to his feet in order to continue the fight, but unfortunately, Leo and Lagann were a bit too quick on the draw for him to keep up with. The net from the Dokugumon card landed right on the mark, and immobilized the Monitamon, who was now otherwise trying to get out by thrashing and screeching.
...How undignified.

The Troopmon didn't lower it's arms as the bean was still holding the rifle, it'll be best if he doesn't challenge the Tsukaimon, at this point the rubber suited digimon had nothing to fight being cornered, outnumbered and having spill the beans he might as well give up and accept its fate, but the human had other plans (a crazy plan at that) she wanted him to take them to the base in Old Terminus.
"Nope, the boss will rip my suit limb by limb and without this thing I can't live" Between angering the boss and being shot here there was no difference
"Technically you could just get into another suit" Gurren spoke
"Right... I don't think that will be an option, and being honest between a rifle and the Boss's Oro Salmon I'd take the rifle here thank you very much... Unless you have a plan for me to take you there and not getting shot down shoot me now"
Oro Salmon? Now that ring some bells for the gear but searching in her data banks for it could take some time, well now it was all in hands of Akemi and Anzu what to do with the Troopmon, he didn't seemed to cooperate yet at the same time it'll be extremely useful if he decides to as he can point them directly to the hide out
That worked much better than expected, Eleonora smiled and walk towards the trapped digimon, grabbing the net she pull the Monitamon back to the alley where the rest was, Lagann's vision was still blurred but it was slowly coming back too, once they reach the alley the blonde drop the net with the Monitamon
"Track was death thanks to this little weaboo TV" She bend over and started poking the Monitamon in the belly "But you're gonna help us now, right?" Whether he wanted or not Monitamon was outnumber too so saying no wouldn't be an option "What's with that rubber thing?" She said pointing at the scared Troopmon
Well, now the group was reunited and with 2 hostages, what would be the next procedure? Would both Troopmon and Monitamon want to cooperate? How would the group make them cooperate? And more importantly what will be the plan once they reach Old Terminus?

Anzu -was- ready to lower her rifle, but she wasn't getting anything good out of the damn Troopmon. So she kept it raised. "Not if I rip your boss up first! Besides, aren't you Troopmon functionally immortal?" ...At least he named one of his boss' attacks. Oro Salmon...
What Digimon had that move? "If you can't just take us there, then give us directions, you goofy gimp-suit wearing dork!" Anzu barked, before Akemi finally interjected. "Anzu, just shut up. You -genuinely suck- at this." The human stepped up to the held-up Troopmon. "I'll make sure my partner doesn't fill you with lead, just...answer a few questions for me, okay? Where's your boss' business? And how come they're kidnapping Digimon?" The Troopmon would need to wait to answer, though, considering the General came back with...A weaboo TV. "I'd rather commit seppuku than help your foreigner tushie! ...Except I'm a ninja, not a samurai, so honor is not my currency. You look like a bunch of weenies, anyways!"
"...Can I shoot that one?" Anzu asked, still holding the rifle up. "No." Akemi stated, firmly. "We have two sources of info here and two can be good...scouts. Or bait, really. So, Miss General, any course of action we should take? The Troopmon mentioned that his boss had a mean Oro Salmon, know any Digimon that use that move?"

The bean brought a nice point to the table, Troopmon are basically inmortal they are just an amalgamation of evil energy that got stuffed in the rubber suit, but without the suit it's nothing, it won't be able to talk or be solid or do anything really, just an useless purple cloud until it gets stuffed into another suit
Fortunately Akemi step forward because Anzu wasn't getting anything from the Troopmon, and while the girl's words calm the rubber suited digimon answering those questions could bring him more troubles than help him, but between facing the Boss's ire and stay here stalling and not getting shot, the latter sounded like the best option
"My boss's business is everywhere" It answered calmly "Any shadow corner you can find in the Digital World you can bet Kowloon Co is there and is not just digimon, the boss believes that everything has a value so digimon, artifacts, metals, everything is fair game for us" The Troopmon made a small pause, he was being vague on purpose giving small tidbits of info but not giving names directly "I am not working under direct orders of the boss but of one of his sons"
And that was all they could get out of the Troopmon before Eleonora came back with Lagann and the Monitamon which also refused to help even having the nerve of calling them weenies, frankly Leo was getting fed up of this TV and it's attitude
"Alright you listen to me here, Chubby" She said holding the digimon and making sure it was looking directly at her "Not too long ago I fought a Demon Lord and not only I survive but also I went back to that place and Knocked Out and Okuwamon, so you better start cooperating or I'll make sure to give you a real reason to commit seppuku"
While the blonde argue with the ninja and Akemi talked to Troopmon, Hagurumon finally finish checking it's data bank looking for the "Oro Salmon" it took him a while since it's easier to search digimon by name than by attacks as many digimon can share similar moves.
"Oro Salmon does not refers entirely to an ability but a weapon" Said Gurren "Oro Salmon next to Berenjena and Rizoma de Loto are fire arms forged by Vulacnusmon," As the weapons were named the eyes on the mas of Troopmon shine again that deep blue denoting fear, it recognize the names in the instant "The Data Banks say that the bullet of the Oro Salmon have their own will and are capable of tracking the target, also the weapon is wielded by Astamon"
And there's the name, they have made a lot of progress but they still have no idea where this group and the captured digimon are, the German took a deep breath and thought of the next step they could really use the help of these two... Eleonora stat smiling, that smile she has when a crazy plan is developing
"Chubby, do you want more feathers? I can give you more if you help us" She then look at Akemi "I need you to convince that rubber thing to work with us, I think I have a crazy plan that might work"

A business with fingers in every pie by the name of Kowloon Co...That also sold literally everything. Sheesh, imagine if they didn't deal in black market stuff like this. Akemi tilted her head at the mention that the boss had a son...A whole crime family? Yikes! The Troopmon shut up then until Leo got back with their hostage.
The Monitamon would be sticking his tongue at Leo if he had one. "Yeah? What're you gonna do, throw me in the dumpster? Jokes on you, I bask in the filth!" He continued to flail in the German's arms! Akemi meanwhile turned her attention to Gurren. Oro Salmon was the name of the type of rifle used by...Astamon. Anzu nodded a few times. "Astamon..." She repeated as her rifle faded. Well, Troopmon was still outnumbered and outgunned. "We're dealing with a ton here, then."
Upon being told to convince Troopmon, Akemi gave a few nods. She had a little plan of her own. "So, tell me...You're scared of your boss, right? How about we make it so that you can go free once we get our friend back, hm?"

Honestly at this rate it would be easier for Eleonora to just punt this TV into the sky, but patience as annoying as it is it can help with the stupid idea she's having, she put the Monitamon on the ground and hope it wasn't as dumb to try to escape when its surrounded.
As Akemi's words seemed to make the Troopmon consider its options, Eleonora bend to talk face to face with the rubber suited digimon, hopefully they could make an agreement and kickstart this plan.
"Let's say you come back with prisoners... Would your boss be mad with you?" The Blonde asked
"Hmmm... I don't think so... The boss would be even happier"
"Alright, this is the plan then" Eleonora made a pause and took a deep breath "You will take us to your hideout, but some meters before reaching it will stop, from there you will take me and Gurren as your "prisoners" The German pointed at the Hagurumon X and then look at Akemi and Anzu "You two will stay behind with Lagann and the Monitamon holding my Xros Loader just to make sure it won't be take away once we are inside, you will have to take a look at the surroundings and see if it has some other entrance, after five minutes you guys will use that entrance or window and try to give me the Xros Loader, once I got it I can Xros up my partners and start a riot to get free, I trust you'll be ready to fight and give us cover too"
That was the plan, extremely crazy and relying in many things as the Monitamon not taking the run when they turn their backs or not delivering the Xros Loader, she doesn't even know if she'll be taken to the same place as the kidnapped digimon, but it's not the first time she'd have to improvise something in the spot.
"You guys are crazy if you think that plan will succeed, I can poke so many holes on it... But I guess is my best chance to keep this rubber suit... I'll do my best but I'll play fool if something goes wrong"
"You girls want something to add or do we set this "plan" in motion?" The German said looking at her companions

As irritating as the Monitamon was, he wasn't that much of an idiot. Akemi and Anzu both perked up to listen to Leo's plan--and...honestly, it was pretty crazy. It relied way too much on assumptions. "Wow, you're not only a weenie but you're a weenie that SUCKS at planning!" The Monitamon barked. Anzu then glared his way.
"Do you have any better ideas, you tub of lard?"
...Scathing.
"...As much as I hate to agree with the two people who we just fought, this does have a few holes. We don't know how their hideout looks like, though I trust the Troopmon here can give us tips. Other than that, we can definitely set this in motion. It just depends on how quickly we can act, honestly..." Akemi tapped her chin in thought, trying to figure out what else to add.
"How will we know where to find you, though? Follow the sounds of fighting?"
