Kazumi walked down the streets of Shibuya on her way to her apartment. In her hands was a box containing a new computer game. She seemed lucky to obtain a copy since there was only one left at the store despite it being a busy day there. Not much was known other than it had a VR hookup for the computer and it involved fighting monsters. The company that made the game had been pretty mysterious about the details which intrigued her. Vemmon, however, had been slightly suspicious so he had stayed at the apartment when she went to get the game.
Soon the goggle wearing red head entered her apartment and called out "Vemmon! I'm home!"
At his general's voice, the small purple digimon with a combination of features that made him look like a movie alien and a bug, came into view. Green eyes flashed in and out of view underneath his black visor as he said "Is t-that the game, Kazumi? D-Doesn't it seem odd that not much information is known a-about it? S-Seems weird to me."
Thinking about her partners words she replied "Okay, I have to admit that it's kind of strange but that isn't the half of it. Vemmon, there was only one copy at the store on a busy day. Usually new games sell out on days such as these."
"M-Maybe this game was set on the shelf shortly before you came in or something. E-Either that or you just had dumb luck."
"Vemmon, for a guy who spends a lot of time in Shibuya, you might be getting paranoid." Kazumi chuckled getting only an irritated clicking sound in response. She then walked into her room where she kept her computer and opened the box. She then began plugging in the VR headset. Then she placed the CD in her computer and began installing the game. After a surprisingly swift installation she placed the headset on and clicked on the game to start it.
Vemmon entered the bedroom a short time later and looked at game screen. At first glance it seemed like a run of the mill VR game until the headset gave of small sparks and the screen glitched. Though he knew the voltage wouldn't harm Kazumi, he was now wary of the game on the screen.
"K-Kazumi, are you okay? C-Can you hear me?" Vemmon asked. When Kazumi didn't respond he tried to remove the headset but a painful jolt went through his body causing him to let go of it and leap back with a yelp. Looking at the screen it seemed Kazumi was being stalked by something. Then an attack shot out at her grazing her left arm. Vemmon then heard a cry of pain from Kazumi and looked at her seeing a burn on her left arm where she was hit. Knowing he had no other choice he used his ability to enter computers to hack them, he had to get to his general before this game killed her.
A few minutes earlier inside the game.
Kazumi had entered the game through a standard login process and arrived in what looked like a small forest. The peaceful sound of birds chirping around her was relaxing and in the distance was what looked like a small town. Knowing other games, it was logical she could find out where to go next by heading there. So she began walking and looking at the various plants around her. Suddenly the sounds of chirping birds ceased making her uneasy so she picked up the pace while looking for the source of the trouble. Purple electricity crackled out from the forest narrowly avoiding lethal damage but still inflicted a nasty burn on her arm. The pain was intense leaving her scared and confused. 'If this is a game why would I be feeling pain?' she thought as her attacker came into view.
A small purple alien with a bug like mandible and long white claws came out of the shadows. The species was all to familiar to her. "Vemmon?" she asked as her attacker raised its claws as electricity danced through them. The intention was clear and Kazumi knew she wouldn't be able to evade the next attack.
A familiar voice was heard from behind her as it yelled "V-Viral Lightning!" Purple electricity arced out from behind her hitting the other Vemmon causing it to howl in pain as electricity traveled through its body. Hissing in pain, the unknown Vemmon ran back into the forest with steam rising from its burned body. "K-Kazumi, are you alright?"
Turning toward the familiar soft spoken voice she asked "Vemmon? Why are you here? Did you hack into the game through my computer?" Her tone was relieved not angry.
"Y-Yes I hacked into your computer. O-Outside the game I saw you get burned w-when that other Vemmon hit you so I couldn't stand by and do n-nothing. T-This game is obviously not an ordinary game and would e-explain why there was only one copy of this game." Vemmon said.
"Hmm. Maybe if we make it to the end of this game we can both get out of it." Kazumi said. She then looked toward the town and said "We might find out where to go next if we get to that town not far from here."
"T-That's better than any ideas I have r-right now. M-Maybe we can also find out why there was also another Vemmon in t-this game. M-Most humans aren't supposed to know digimon exist."
With that the two of them made their way to the town. Luckily they reached the town with no further ambushes. It was what they saw in the town that surprised them. Various digimon of many shapes, sizes, and levels wandered the streets as if going about there normal daily routines. Then the townsfolk spotted Vemmon and began fleeing in alarm. Before Kazumi could say anything a Flamedramon came up to them and shouted "You have a lot of nerve coming into our town, foul creature!" Fire spread across the digimon's forearm before he growled "Vermin like you Vemmon bring nothing but suffering."
"This Vemmon would never hurt anyone, sir." Kazumi said in an attempt to defend her partner. "He protected me from a Vemmon in the forest near here."
The Flamedramon glared at Vemmon with suspicion before letting his flames dissipate and then looked at Kazumi before he said "He protected you by attacking his own kind? That makes no sense because these creatures were only created to attack travelers."
Knowing that Flamedramon was suspicious of him, Vemmon decided to let Kazumi handle things. "Why would someone create such violent digimon?"
"I have no idea why someone would create these things but there are rumors that the one responsible is in an old castle a few miles west of here." Flamedramon answered.
"What if Vemmon and I head to that castle to help you with this problem." Kazumi suggested.
"I don't know if you could defeat that enemy even with that Vemmon helping you. There is a strong digimon living near that castle that has been fighting the dark forces that come out of that castle. Her name is BlackWarGreymon and her heroic exploits are legendary."
"Would she help us if we ask her?"
"She should if she believes that the Vemmon with you means no harm." Flamedramon said. Though he was suspicious of the Vemmon with her, he had a feeling those two might be the only hope their world had.
With information on the location they needed, Kazumi and Vemmon headed west toward the castle. After traveling for quite awhile they came across scorch marks on the ground. They resembled circular burn marks in shape and some even seemed fresh judging by the smell in the air. "T-The ground around here is more scorched than your arm." At the stern look Kazumi gave him he then said "S-Sorry. Y-You think that Flamedramon would of given you something for that burn though."
Thinking back on all the characters she had met before she said "Hey, Vemmon. Haven't you noticed that all the NPCs have been digimon? What is going on with this game?"
"I h-have to admit, I've been wondering that since y-you mentioned it earlier. C-Could this game be a trap made by a digimon?"
"I don't think that is likely, Vemmon. I'm have no reputation as a Xros General in the Digital World. The few humans and digimon we met have been in the Human World. Unless you have enemies I'm not aware of."
I-If I have enemies, like h-how I got to the Human World the day we met, I d-don't remember them. M-Maybe my amnesia goes deeper than we both thought. I h-hope in this case I'm just being paranoid." Vemmon said as he paced back and forth.
A shadow flew overhead causing Vemmon to stop pacing. He and Kazumi looked skyward seeing what looked like a bipedal black reptile like digimon wearing armor. The digimon landed a short distance in front of them and in a feminine voice said "Creature of darkness stop right there. I will not allow you to harm that human." The digimon then flexed her claw like weapons as if ready to strike.
Vemmon knew he wouldn't likely believe him if he tried to reason with her but fortunately he didn't have to as Kazumi stepped protectively in front of him and said "He means me no harm. In fact we are journeying to the old castle not far from here to stop the one creating the darkness. However we are also looking for a digimon called BlackWarGreymon hoping she would help us against this evil."
"A Vemmon seeking to destroy the dark being that spawned it? Strange indeed. As for you search I can help you with that for I am BlackWarGreymon." BlackWarGreymon said.
Kazumi wasn't sure of Vemmon's origin but neither was Vemmon so she asked "What do you know of the one responsible for the destruction?"
"Unfortunately not much. Only thing anyone knows is when it came the regions nearby came under attack by its Vemmon minions." BlackWarGreymon said with a shake of her head.
"D-Doesn't help my kind's bad reputation when dark b-beings create and use them for their dirty work." Vemmon said with an angry click of his mandible.
"Please help us then, BlackWarGreymon. Maybe with your help we can stop this being responsible." Kazumi said hoping BlackWarGreymon would agree.
Fortunately, they didn't have to wait long before the female digimon said "I shall help you. I'm tired of just dealing with the mess left behind by the fiend. We'll get there much faster if I fly us there. That is if you don't mind me carrying you guys there."
"I don't mind if you carry me." Kazumi said.
"I d-don't mind either." Vemmon said.
BlackWarGreymon gently lifted both Kazumi and Vemmon into one of her arms before she took to the air flying in the direction of the castle. It wasn't long before the castle was in sight. "Land on that balcony on the top floor, BlackWarGreymon. There is a good chance the being we're looking for is near there."
"W-Would also be good not to deal with hordes of minions no matter what s-species they are. I h-hardly find the idea of bringing the entire building d-down on our heads a charming option." Vemmon said in agreement.
BlackWarGreymon chuckled before she said "This little one is different from the others. He has a good sense of humor." Seconds later she landed on the balcony and placed Kazumi and Vemmon down so they could walk. The trio then walked into the castle. Not a word was needed to be said between the three as they made there way into a room not far from the balcony. Inside was a figure that reminded Kazumi of Vemmon in appearance but taller and more alien like.
"That digimon kinda looks like you, Vemmon." Kazumi said in astonishment.
"That might be but that is the champion form of Vemmon. This digimon is called Snatchmon." BlackWarGreymon informed.
The digimon identified as Snatchmon turned when he hear the voices and took in the sight of the three intruders. One was a young human woman, BlackWarGreymon, and curiously a Vemmon. "So you have finally returned to me, my creation."
"W-What are you talking about? I d-don't know you." Vemmon hissed his stance aggressive.
To say Kazumi was confused was an understatement but before she could say anything Snatchmon said "It seems you have no memory of me so I'll explain. I had been using my dark powers to build an army in secret for many years. I didn't recruit modern Vemmon since most were too soft hearted for my needs. Somehow my plans were discovered by a Justimon who raised an army to fight my forces. Most were destroyed except for you. Shortly before I fled from Justimon's forces the stasis unit you were in was forced to release you before your programming was complete. It obviously caused you to forget everything I had already programmed into you."
"If w-what you say is true, it doesn't explain h-how I ended up in the Human World." Vemmon said in disbelief.
"That is one factor I didn't count on either. I assumed you were lost until I detected your data signature on the human over there." Snatchmon said before he continued "I had been tailing her recently when I discovered your data signature. Then I realized she is a Xros General of low rank and you are her partner to boot."
"W-Who I befriend is hardly your business. S-She was nice to me and we became friends w-while you apparently just wanted to use me for ill gains." Vemmon said venomously. Kazumi, meanwhile, had remained quiet while taking in all the information.
"If I were you I would watch what you say to me. In case you haven't noticed, this is no ordinary game and I am no ordinary opponent. I created this game and the reason there are digimon that aren't my minions here is because I captured them and imprisoned them in this game world. The reason I was even able to capture strong digimon such as BlackWarGreymon is that I'm able to digivolve to my mega form." Snatchmon said with a smirk.
Kazumi watched as both Vemmon and BlackWarGreymon grew tense as Vemmon said "It c-can't be. I t-though that form was a legend."
"Vemmon, what is Snatchmon talking about? What is this form?" Kazumi asked growing more worried by the minute. Not only was this game just a fancy prison for digimon but Snatchmon could become a mega digimon too.
"A f-frightening digimon that no one hoped to see again. G-Galacticmon." Vemmon said nervously.
With cold laughter Snatchmon began to warp digivolve to the massive Galacticmon. He blew the ceiling to atoms during the evolution process and was now floating over them in his massive glory. BlackWarGreymon flew up to meet Galacticmon in battle as she said "I'll deal with him. Free the others with the computer in the back of the room."
Kazumi and Vemmon looked at the back of the room seeing the up until now unnoticed computer that BlackWarGreymon saw as she went up to fight Galacticmon. The two of them ran over to the computer trying to figure it out while the sounds of battle sounded overhead. Vemmon knew one way they could get this done but could he hack a computer inside a computer? There was only one way to find out as he entered the computer in the back of the room. Apparently he could, so he began looking for the data he needed to free the prisoners. Soon he found it and activated the release sequence throughout the game. Just as he exited the computer Kazumi cried out "No!" Looking up Vemmon saw BlackWarGreymon scatter into data fragments before there eyes before the fragments disappeared into the portal that appeared at the far end of the room. Grabbing onto Kazumi's hand, Vemmon began pulling her to the exit.
Galacticmon dedigivolved back to Snatchmon before he said "Looks like we'll have to meet another time, my creation. Farewell." Snatchmon created his own exit and disappeared into it with a cold laugh.
The world around them began to collapse as they made their way to the exit. They managed to get out just in the nick of time. Kazumi woke up still at her desk chair while Vemmon woke up lying on the floor near Kazumi's desk. Kazumi looked at her computer screen and noticed that the game had deleted itself and the CD and VR headset had vanished too. Neither she or Vemmon were going to miss those things though. Kazumi went to the bathroom to treat her burns since they looked bad. Vemmon, meanwhile, thought back to all that just happened. If they were going to meet Snatchmon again then Kazumi needed an army that was not only strong but one she could trust and he was going to help her with that.
