The sounds of something being shifted around would catch the attention of both Kaya and Hawkeye. They would both turn their heads towards one of the nearby buildings where the sound was coming from. With the creepy vibe this village was giving off, they were on edge as they watched. There was always a chance something was going to jump out and attack them. But thankfully they waited until something happened before deciding what they would do.
The door of the building swung open, revealing a boy that seemed to be around Kaya's age. He claimed he was stuck in the building for six days, asking if they were here to save him and if they heard that screech. "Please calm down, young one. We have no idea what exactly is going on here."
This young man looked completely out of his mind, so much so that words couldn't even describe how uneasy Kaya was feeling just from his presence. It certainly didn't help that he smelled awful as well, possibly not bathing or showering for six days would do that to you. She tried not to look visibly affected by the smell though.
He was slowly but surely starting to scare Kaya and Hawkeye to an extent. He kept begging them to "get us out of here." What did he mean? Was he talking about the village? Was there some evil Digimon around? "What is going on? Is this village under attack or something? We'll try to help, but we don't even know what's happening. We did hear the screech but that's it."

"Hang on. That mist managed to turn rocks into... whatever those things are now, and you want us to go into that same mist? Are you serious?" Data said, as the Megadramon pointed at the wall of mist with one cybernetic claw.
"Calm yourself, Data." Hana said. "Let's just go get Kaya and Hawkeye, and then we can figure out where to go from there."
The Megadramon opened his mouth to speak, but swallowed what he was going to say and crossed his arms. "Fine, but this conversation will be continued later. Rush, you and Hana should go after Kaya and Hawkeye. I'll stay here with Tatsuya and Blake in case something unfriendly tries to pop out of the mist."
"If that's how you want to do it, then fine. We'll be back soon." Hana replied with a salute as Rush took off in the direction of the village the other duo had gone towards. The Infermon ran through the trees much faster than Megadramon could fly, so he was the better choice to send after Kaya and Hawkeye.

"Well that's the only way to know.... Plus rocks are structurally more primitive than Digimon, this one is obvious enough." Yuuki commented. Ah he thought to return with the rest and hitch a ride, but looks like the other have different kind of plan. That's fine he guess...
".....It's worrying," Hikaru mused.
"It's worrying indeed... but regardless we must get down to this..." Yuuki answered.
"..Come to think of it, does clearing the battlefield with a card slash would do anything?"
"Not wise... It might cause an unknown chain reaction."
Kaya and Hawkeye meanwhile managed to calm the boy down. "Huff, sorry about that... alright, hear this out...Me and my partner was doing our usual adventuring when this screeching sound happened. It... it happened about two weeks ago alright? We had no idea what happened, but there's this strange mist... So like any sane people we avoided it. We tried to get to one of the village but they were so hostile against strangers! So we gone to this one and they accepted us kindly. Our plan was to leave after the mist is gone, but.... yeah it was gone the next day! We thought "ah well it must be just some bug in Digital World or something!"
The boy took a deep breath and start pumping out some water to drink. "Sorry, I gotta drink for a bit... I'm damn starving but whatever! ANyway! We decided to stick to this village and helps around... you know, just paying back kindness with kindness! We kinda like... did this for two days before suddenly the screeching sound was heard again! This time the location of the mist pouring was about twenty meters away! Some vilalge guards were sent.... they entered the mist and welll..."
Nervously, the boy looked toward the forest, nothing is going on.
"They returned... they said they found nothing, but... it's noted that they become a bit aggressive. Like, they easily snaps, even the kindest of them! It's like a person who drunk too much and now is cranky... but thankfully they seem to be fine after a day rest. Two days after that... it happened again! This time it moved away again, and so the same people sent to the mist... but they didn't return.... We watied, and waited, and waited... what's worse, the mist is getting wider and wider everytime it appears! We have sent number of people to investigate... and... and... None of them returned... some admitted they were attacked by thee missing people in the forest! But those missing people's eyes were bloodshot, and they're berserking without direction! Ah--I said people but I mean Digimons... for some reason humans are unaffected. But I guess because we're humans it makes sense?"
The boy took a deep breath. "Afterward I and my partner gone to check the place out... we... we found traces of battles. Something... like spores and strings.... Whether this was the cause of madness or not I have no idea, but... but! My partner! He... he was killed by IT! Oh God, I can't begin even how to describe it... It looked like an insect Digimon, but I never... I have never seen that one before! It looked like something infecting it. It wailed and growled in pain.... The last thing I remembered was my partner spiriting me away before he got impaled by that creature... on the chest! The creature... the creature always stopped in front of the village. It always came accompanied by the mist... it... it let out a screeching sound that just rattled us! But it never came in! The frequency of its appearance getting shorter and shorter between gap too... Please, please god, tell me that you're here to rescue us and take us to Rosewood!"
...Well, that's a story.

Thankfully the two had managed to calm this boy down enough for him to tell them exactly what was going on. The only problem was that the story he explained, if it was actually true, was beyond horrifying and sounded like something out of a horror movie take on the typical monster collecting anime.
To sum it up, the boy explained that he and his partner came here two weeks ago to avoid this weird mist that had appeared, which went away after a single day. They decided to stick around to help out, in order to thank the villagers for letting them stay there. That's when the first screech was heard, and more mist poured out of the forest, so some guards went to investigate. According to the boy, they came back pretty uncharacteristically aggressive, claiming that they found nothing.
But that is not where the story ended. Two days after that, another screech was heard and even more mist poured out of the forest. This was confirmation that this was a new regular thing that was happening. More were sent to investigate, and they claimed to be attacked by those who went missing. So the boy and his partner themselves investigated, resulting in the partner's death by a seemingly infected insect Digimon. This insect seemed to be the source of the screeching, and according to the boy it always waited outside of the village, but never entered.
Both Kaya and Hawkeye looked... well, any word to describe how they looked would be a gross understatement. They never heard of anything like this before. "Y-You can't be serious, can you?"
"I don't think he's lying, Kaya," Hawkeye said. The fear in his voice was very clear.
"But that's insane! What he's saying is that there's like a... a VIRUS that's changing Digimon like that! Something like that can't exist, it just can't...!" Ultimately Kaya was just lying to herself. This boy had no reason to lie, and it would explain why the other Digimon were boarding themselves in their house. Something was affecting Digimon, seemingly turning them into actual nightmare creatures. The boy begged them to tell him that they were here to rescue him and the Digimon. Before she could answer, Hana and Rush would be arriving at that time, perfect timing.
"Hana! Rush!" Kaya would say, running up to the duo. Her facial expression was just pure fear at this point. "Listen to me, something bad is going on. Something's changing Digimon somehow, and one of those changed Digimon is stalking this village I think, the same Digimon that might be causing that screeching sound. We need to help get everyone out of here. We need Tatsuya and Blake to help, too!"

"Changed... Digimon? But that would mean... oh crap! We need to get to the others NOW!" Hana said, her face paling from both the realization of how bad things were and from seeing the look of pure fear on Kaya's face. "Data and the others are still out there with that thing! Come on!"
Hana and Rush immediately turned around and ran back in the direction they came from. Hana prayed they'd make it back to the others before this... mutated Digimon found them first. This whole situation was reminding her of their painful encounter with MarineDevimon, and she did NOT want to lose Data so soon after getting him back. Please let us get back in time!
Back with the other group in the woods, Data's sense of unease was growing by the minute. "I still don't like this. As much as I don't agree with your idea of going into the mist, I'm beginning to think it might be our only chance of finding whatever's causing it, if it won't show itself outside of the mist."
"Don't worry, Data. I'm sure we can take care of ourselves." Sakura said, trying to reassure him even though he's one stage higher than her.

"Well, it's not like we're trying to get ourselves killed in here... But what option do we have?" Yuuki countered. "It's a bit too long to go to Rosewood, and what should I even tell them anyway? There's a mist here, anomaly specialists might be needed? It's a bit farfetched... and well, how to say this... my partner here... said that our first battle happened there...When it comes to Digital World I guess you can't really write off this sort of thing as coincidence."
Honestly, the logical step is to back the hell out and call response team from Rosewood, but... At the same time if he goes to the Rosewood, what sort of guarantee the ExD inside won't get out and chase him instead? No, actually... if it's really ExD then...
"Fuck," Yuuki cursed. "It's not that Rosewood was never informed... whatever inside is stopping any potential messenger to reach Rosewood to begin with!"
Then there's the screech again. Yuuki and Hikaru gritted their teeth. Whatever is inside seem to have finished its prey... Which means, it'll soon come out. Not good, what should he even do?
"Get the other here, quick! If possible, withi--"
"YUUKI!!"
The sudden shout from his partner make Yuuki jolts. Something flew past him, and was about to stab where he was standing prior. Hikaru have tackled him away. His holosuit letting out a noise from the impact. It might look a bit eerie to onlooker, almost like Hikaru just took some large damage. But his image quickly stabilized.
"...W-wh..."
On where he was standing was a stinger... but not a normal stinger. It was sickly green-yellow, with filament-like threads connecting it to whatever is inside. It was almost as tall as him and the shape cannot be used as an exact reference for what kind of monster it is... but there's no need, As it moved, so does the mist. Now the team is enveloped with mist... to which Yuuki quickly use the breathing mask of his diving gear to fight against, and activates EV suit.
The first that appeared... was a crusty head, whcih looked like a hardened, tree mushrooms. then... the saliva and the low guttural sound... it came from mouth that has been parted six ways: two mandibles and the two beaks that supposed to be like a normal mouth now split into four like an alien. Its wings colored as sickly green as its stinger. Its limbs, twitching, crackling, and pretty much like empty exoskeleton. Its entire abdomen is riddled with beecomb-like pattern, except rather than bees, something slimy and disgusting trickled down, pulsating with each trickle. Slime mold? Whichever it is, it's colored lime green.
"Ay fuck," Yuuki cursed once again.
ExD Flymon. Its size is nearly double of the normal Flymon.
"GET UP, GETUP! GET UP FROM THE GROUND!"
"I HEARD YA!"
The creature let out a massive screech, and now is trying to detect the party. It... seems to be blind.
The screech was heard until the village. At this point the boy shrieked and dived back to the house, closing it and barring the door again. From outside Kaya could hear him screaming "IT'S THE DEVIL! IT'S THE DEVIL! THAT WAS THE DAMN FLYING VESPID!!"
Kaya and Hawkeye would perhaps notice that the mist is "moving". It's moving closer to their village rather than this one. Which means... the rest of the party is in danger.

Upon hearing the news, Hana panicked and left the area along with Rush, saying that Data and the others are still with "that thing," which did not sound good after hearing this boy's story. Of course, Kaya wasn't exactly thrilled with something like that. "Hey! Don't just leave, we gotta get everyone to safety before-"
She never did get to finish that thought as the screech was heard yet again. The boy panicked once more and ran right back into the house that he came out of, closing and barricading the door again. "W-Wait! Come out, we can still get you out of here!"
"We have bigger issues at the moment, Kaya!" Hawkeye yelled, referring to the mist that was spreading into the village. "Hurry, get on my back, whatever that thing is will most likely run into Tatsuya and the others!" Kaya hesitated for a few moments, but she knew that Hawkeye was right. The preteen ran over to her partner and got onto his back, allowing the Halsemon to take off into the skies once again. "Whatever it is that screamed just now," Kaya was telling Hawkeye, "it has to be the Digimon that guy was talking about. The one that... the one that killed his own partner."
"I am well aware of that, Kaya. I am also just as scared as you are right now. But I promise you, I will never leave your side. Whatever this thing is, this virus is, I will protect you from it. That is my sworn vow as your partner." While Kaya completely appreciated the words, she was in no mood to respond back. How do you stay positive when you learn about a virus that can completely corrupt and possibly mutate a Digimon, such as your closest friend?
It didn't take long for them to reach up with the others, Tatsuya and Blake especially. "Tatsuya! Blake! Are you guys oka-"
Kaya couldn't even get her words out when she and Hawkeye laid eyes on what was in front of them. So much was wrong about the... the CREATURE that they were looking at. Most of it was like a lime green, especially the colored slime that was coming out of its beecomb-like abdomen. Low guttural growling sounds came from its mouth, its alien-like mouth. Both Kaya's and Hawkeye's eyes widened and their pupils and irises shrunk, with the former holding her mouth with both her hands tightly to prevent herself from screaming.
"What... what the fuck..." Hawkeye stammered, "What the fuck is this thing...?!"

When the mist came towards them, Sakura used her diving kit's mask to keep herself from breathing in whatever was in the mist. She was especially glad she did when she saw what the mist had done to the Flymon that made itself visible to them.
"Jesmon Christ Mode! What happened to that thing?!" Data said, the Megadramon and Sakura both reeling back in revulsion at the sight of the mutated insect. They noticed that the creature (they couldn't bring themselves to call that thing a Digimon anymore) seemed to be blind, so Sakura quietly flew around it to try and see if that was indeed the case.
It was at this point that Hana and Rush arrived and caught sight of the mutated abomination. The sight was so horrifying that Hana immediately leaned over the Infermon's side and threw up onto the grass. That was a nightmarish image that'll be seared into the Tamer's brain for the rest of her life.
"We have to stop this thing. Dark Side Attack!" Data cried out as he launched a barrage of organic missiles at the mutated creature.
Dark Side Attack: Megadramon launches organic missiles from his hands that home in on foes. Increased accuracy, 4 post cooldown. CD: 0/4

Oh shit, oh shit... well there's no need for any distraction anymore... Time to pull out his Digivice... As long as he could scan it for one thing, then it would be just fine. Come on, come on....
ExD Helix - Spores This Digimon is infected with spores. Its body is riddled with it. It causes this Digimon to be berserking, blind, but also very lethal. Any attack directed to it releases noxious spore that infects its attacker with Spored status effect, unless it's with Ice, Darkness, Lightning, Light, Wood, Metal, Earth and Water Element. Explosion or Wind based element will aggrevate it, causing it to infect everyone in 20 meter radius. Spored enemies is vulnerable to ExD Flymon's technique's secondary effect. It'll be purged from the system after a turn.
A loud boom and shriek followed. What Yuuki remembered was that the mist blown away before replaced by EVEN THICKER ONE. "Shi--- EVERYONE MOVE AWAY! HANA AND KAYA, GET YOUR DIGIMON TO ADULT STAGE AT MAX! IF IT ATTACKED MORE THAN THAT WITH HIGHER STAGE IT COULD EVOLVE!"
ExD's thing is that they, unless work in pack, usually would evolve when threatened with higher power. That is not something he'd like to deal. Thankfully there are nothing against teaming it up. Yuuki immediately pointed at the Flymon.
"...I'm keeper of the lore. I'm the maelstorm that devours all information, gale that casts away fog of deceit! You who stand before me... reveal your true nature to me!"
A glyph appeared before the young man momentarily. The spore mist made it too hard to see what it looked like. However, the young man's voice soon followed. "YOU ALL! ITS ATTACK WILL NOT BE AS POTENT AS BEFORE FOR A WHILE! HANG ON WHILE YOU GET USED TO ITS ATTACK PATTERN!"
However, before they could even move, the Flymon suddenly hisses once more. It ignores Data who attacked it prior, and going straight for Hikaru!
"Oi you can't be se-- WAH!" Hikaru quickly dodged to the side. It's not done however. It quickly launches several stringy projectiles at the king in disguise. Hikaru quickly skittered away, dodging the attack. Thanks to its blindness, its accuracy is reduced, but even so... that's DANGEROUS! Ew, wait, it came out from its abdomen, which riddled with pattern and holes like beecombs?
"DASH ME--"
Only clicking sound came out from Hikaru, who opened his mouth to execute a Dorumon's signature Technique...Right, he forgot, he doesn't have that kind of technique, nor card would work on him. While holosuited he can't fight. Crap crap crap...
"Tsk...!" Yuuki pulled one fo his card. It's a silver grade, but just as he card slashed... it... it rejected. Rather than messages such as "Condition Impossible", it refuses to slash. No way... he can't even fight with cards then!? Don't tell me he really have been regressed to Child stage and stuck there!?
Battle Summary: Flymon takes damage from Data's attack ExD Helix: Spore Activates due to explosion Spreads [Spored] status effect to every Digimon in 20 meter radius.
Before it takes effect, Yuuki and Hikaru countered with: Eye of Wisdom Once per thread. Member of research and exploration division targets one opponent. Halven damage dealt by the target to all ally for three turns. As addition, additional effects and debuff from the target does not affect the user of this technique for that three turns.
ExD Flymon attacked Hikaru with: Paralyzing Slime Mold: Prevent an enemy from moving for one turn. If the enemy is spored, this technique also put one of their technique in cooldown.Three turns cooldown.

Now it has come to this. It was Yuuki and Hikaru, Kaya and Hawkeye, and Hana, Data, Rush and Sakura against this creature that could have been called a Digimon once before. But now... in its current state, calling it a creature or a monster was much more appropriate than calling it a Digimon.
Data wasted no time as he shot a missile attack at the damned thing, followed by it releasing more of that mist that the group saw earlier. Seeing it come OUT of the monster made it clear that this was not normal mist and that breathing it in may not be a good idea. In a fit of fright, Kaya pulled out the mask portion of her diving kit and put it on, hopefully that along with the EV suit would protect her. As Hawkeye soared up into the air, Tatsuya warned the others to not evolve higher than Adult, as it could evolve if they went any higher than that.
"That thing can still evolve?!" Hawkeye asked in an incredulous tone. He flew higher and higher into the air, it was going to be clear that they needed to upgrade at least a little bit in order to fight against this thing. Once they were high enough, Hawkeye morphed back to his Hawkmon form, the Digimental going right back into Kaya's Digivice. This of course meant that the two were now falling to the ground. But they wouldn't go splat.
Her Digivice in her left hand, Kaya snapped her fingers with her right, causing the hand to glow with Digisoul. "DNA CHARGE!" Kaya would shout, transferring that Digisoul to the device.
"Hawkmon, Evolution!" The Hawkmon's body would glow and morph into a more humanoid shape, with long blonde hair and white wings, a black mask covering his eyes. "Angemon!" And just like that, Kaya safely landed on the Angemon's shoulder as well.
After Hikaru was able to dodge the monster's attacks (which were coming from the same holes that slime was coming out of, absolutely disgusting) Hawkeye felt as if he had to inflict some damage as well. Charging an arrow with blue energy, the Angemon pulled it back with his golden bow and released, sending the icy attack right at the insect. "Freeze Arrow!" Halsemon slide-evolved to Angemon and uses "Freeze Arrow" on the ExD Flymon.
Moves Freeze Arrow: Hawkeye turns his arrow into pure ice, which will then release cold air and freeze its surroundings. Cooldown is two posts. Diameter is 25 meters.
Passives Deadshot (Combat Passive): Hawkeye's aim is far superior to most Digimon. Each attack has its accuracy increase by 30%, making it more likely that his attack will hit its target.
Cooldowns -Freeze Arrow (0/2)

Seeing that his attack only made the monster spew out more mist, Data growled as he forced himself to revert to his Guardromon form and backed away after hearing Tatsuya's (Or was it Yuuki's?) warning about the thing possibly evolving further. "Why didn't you warn us about that BEFORE I shot at the d**n thing?! Sakura, rush, can you guys cover me while I ready a Thunder Break?"
Sakura nodded at the Guardromon's request, as she didn't want to give away her position to the Flymon.
Rush lowered himself to the ground so Hana could climb off of him before he reverted to his Chrysalimon form. He readied a Disconnect Buster and fired it at the mutated Flymon at the same time that Sakura fired a Flower Cannon shot at the creature from the opposite side.
While they attacked, Data raised a hand towards the sky, as he started summoning storm clouds for his Thunder Break attack.
Dark Side Attack CD: 1/4 Thunder Break: Thunder Break: Guardromon summons storm clouds which unleash bolts of lightning from the sky in a 50m diameter. 1 post charge time, 5 post cooldown. Disconnect Buster: Launches a ball of concentrated dark energy at the opponent. Deals medium damage, 2 post cooldown. CD: 0/2 Flower Cannon: Thrusts both of its arms forward, makes a gun muzzle from the petals on its wrists, and fires an energy shell. 2 post cooldown. CD: 0/2

"I'm trying to save my life first BEFORE I could even think straight!" Yuuki yelled back. "Plus the scanning take a while! This damn abomination's data is aberrant for that matter!" Anyway, the evolution part might be just a conjencture... mainly because he have seen Jijimon in Hawkeye's village. So at least there would be a perfect stage around, right? In that case, if there are indeed perfect stage, why couldn't it take down this creature despite fighting in group? The answer is because this thing itself can evolve further, or at least that's what he think. The Flymon hisses. It noticed some shift in the data, but was too focused on Hikaru. The king only can grit his teeth in annoyance. What's the deal with this guy!? Why it have such a laser focus on him? Thankfully, the salvo of attack arrived. The Flymon, completely distracted, was buffeted by attack. Normally,a Digimon would have been in critical to be buffered by this kind of attack withotu defending itself, yet here it is... it's still there. It's frozen, but... "...KREEEEEEE----------------" Suddenly it let out a massive screech. It's a sound attack! Thankfully it doesn't deal much damage... or is it? Someone who charges might will find their attack backfires! On top of it, its abdoment fell from its thorax, and with a disgusting squelching sound it hits the ground, broken into pieces, just like something wet and fiber-y splatting on the ground. The impact releases the slime mold inside... The thing pulsated... before it formed what looked like another organism... Is it a minion? Either way, it's now... Attacking Hikaru! "WHOA SHIT!" the king quickly skittered away from his posiition. The point of impact with the slime mold, which is a tree, immediately turned into something grotesque, like a dying tree that got slime molds growing on it. The Flymon's abdomen is starting to regrow, but it doesn't seem to be a painless process as it hisses in pain. Yuuki grits his teeth. Hikaru cannot fight, he'll be a sitting duck right here... The only option was to take off the holosuit... But that would mean to expose Ys' internal problem out... What to do, what to do... Is there is really nothing to do? ...But that's when he noticed... that this Digimon... still have yet done. It releases tons of spores from its wings... What... what is it doi--- The answer came soon after. The ground now covered with mushroom-- It's a territory creation move! "Dammi--!" Hikaru managed to be immune from the wasp's third ability thanks to Eye of Wisdom. However, the rest would find their strength sapped and their speed lowered greatly. Hawkeye is affected to certain extent, but not as bad as the rest. "Kuh-- No wonder it could take down a lot of fighters just by itself!" What should he do... what should he do? If only he could do something... But... but taking off the holosuit... Between his partner... and the kingdom they built together painstakingly... Yuuki bit his lips. ...it might be too irresponsible for him but... ....Please let him trust everything will be fine..."................. HIKARU, TAKE OFF THAT HOLOSUIT!" There's no need for a second command. Hikaru immediately ripped off a pendant from his neck. The holosuit immediately faded along with bright light. Runes starting to appear on his body. His height increased slightly... but the most striking is the stained glass-like wings that grows bigger and bigger, enough to allow him a proper flight compared to a normal Dorumon. Despite being nerfed to child stage still, the king now can fight! Burst of data surges from his body. The king took flight, squaring directly with the Adult stage. His tail glows bright blue, and immediately... He spun once, sending a blade of ice toward the wings of the Flymon! The insectoid screeched in pain, but as it's still frozen, it cannot do much to Hikaru's attack just now.
Combat log: ExD Flymon ExD Flymon took three attack squarely. It's currently frozen for a turn. ExD Flymon's passive kicked in! Parasitic Mutuals- Once per thread only. When ExD Flymon took more than two attack in a turn, its abdomen will deattach and releases out a minion Slime Mold. This Slime Mold is treated as an Adult stage, share same senses as Flymon, and also copies its ExD Helix ability. It doesn't have any skill.
ExD Flymon releases Wail of the Unliving: AoE damage against all enemy in 35 meter diameter. If any enemy is charging an attack, its charge is spontaneously released at itself, with lower efficiency. 4 turns cooldown.
ExD Flymon then continues with Kingdom of Fungus: 50% hit to defense and attack for 4 turns to all enemies within the 50 meter radius. On top of it, apply [Spored] continuously during the duration as long as the enemy is still inside the area. Flying targets will only feel 30% debuff rather than 50% but will still get [Spored]. Once per thread.
Cooldown: Paralyzing Slime Mold 1/3
Hikaru Dodged Slime Mold's attack. Took off the holosuit Activates: Mana Burst EX (RAM Upgrade GIGA) This technique allows this Digimon to increase its power of its offensive technique as if it's one cooldown higher. Two turns cooldown per activation.
to executes: Frosty Trail: Hikaru sweeps his tail in a horizontal arc to conjure freezing beam. Upon hit: damages the target and the target opponent's next attack takes 50% penalty in speed and strength. Only do half of the effect to adult. 3 turns cooldown.

While Tatsuya was yelling at Data, he claimed that the scanning he was doing was going to take a bit, since the creature's data was completely all over the place. That reminded Hawkeye of a question he was going to ask, but because of the initial shock of seeing this crime against nature momentarily caused him to forget. "Do you even know what this thing is, Tatsuya? Or whatever is affecting it is called, for that matter?!"
Thankfully for Hawkeye and Data, the abomination was too distracted on Blake to notice Hawkeye's digivolution, or both their attacks soaring right at it. The Freeze Arrow froze it solid, which meant it would be in critical condition... but unfortunately, this was not a normal Digimon. It suddenly let out a loud SCREECH, affecting both Kaya and Hawkeye. Kaya removed her hands from her ears, a bit of blood now firmly displayed on them. One more screech and it was possible that her eardrums would completely burst.
But that wasn't all. Something beyond disgusting happened next. The thing's abdomen would fall, hitting the ground with an absolutely revolting sound effect. The slime mold inside would be released, pulsating and seemingly forming into another organism. And not only that, the slime mold would leap at Hikaru, landing on a tree and turning said tree into something horrid. Kaya couldn't hold it in anymore as she turned around, puking many feet above the air. Hopefully that puke would not land on anyone below. Even Hawkeye was looking fairly green at this point.
The demon wasn't done, sadly. It released a bunch of spores from its wings, causing a bunch of mushrooms to sprout up from the ground. They did something to Hawkeye, as he felt a bit of his strength fading away. He still had enough to fight, but he wasn't as strong as he was before. Things were looking bad, at this rate they'd all be defeated, or worse... infected, or at least the Digimon would. Hawkeye pulled out another arrow, he had to try-
And the it happened. Tatsuya called out to Hikaru, with the Dorumon responding by ripping off his pendent. The holosuit faded, and a very familiar Dorumon was now on display as he took to the sky, sending a sharp blade of ice right at the infected creature. Despite the circumstances, it was a majestic display from the King himself.
"Hikaru..." Kaya mumbled, her eyes shimmering as she laid eyes on the fabulous Dorumon. "It's King Hikaru..."
"He was in disguise the whole time, I should've known," Hawkeye grumbled as he charged his arrow with yellow energy, pulling it back with his bow and releasing it at the frozen abomination again. "Zap Arrow!" Hawkeye is hit by both the sound attack, which depleted some health, and the "Kingdom of Fungus"
Hawkeye uses "Zap Arrow" on the ExD Digimon

Data unfortunately found his concentration interrupted by the monster's wail, breaking his concentration and messing up his Thunder Break attack. Instead of unleashing a rain of lightning bolts, it only released a single bolt that Data was barely able to dodge before it hit him. "Darn it! What the hell hap- ohdearYggdrasilwhatisthat?!"
The Guardromon was horrified to see the abomination's abdomen break off and release some kind of blob that went after Blake/Hikaru, who was apparently a king in disguise if what Kaya and Hawkeye said was accurate. He wasn't 100% sure, since his audio receptors were still ringing.
Hana, meanwhile, had backed up enough to be out of range of the creature's wail, but was still horrified by what she was looking at. The poor girl was never going to get this nightmarish sight out of her head at this rate. Haaving an idea, Hana went over to Rush and whispered her plan into his ear.
Sakura and Rush were both left clutching at their ears upon hearing the monster's wail. The Lillymon was shocked to learn that "Blake" was actually the disguised king of her homeland, but this mind-blowing revelation could wait until after they stopped this mutated abomination. Moving between the monster and it's slimy minion, the Lillymon unleashed a Petal Blizzard, hoping to hit both opponents at once.

"No time to talk! I do know what it is but I can't talk right now ALRIGHT? It's long story!" But now that Hikaru is unveiled, it's pretty much... a thing that is on the past. Yuuki quikcly summoned his real Digivice to his right hand.. However, contrary to his expectation, the Flymon would now looked at something else... It... Now focused on Hana and her partners! "Ah..." It doesn't register Hikaru anymore as a threat, for whatever reason. It now registered the quartet as a threat instead. Fuck... Hawkeye's attack was fast, nearly stopping it. However, due to losing its abdomen (and waiting it to regenerate (it's almost fully regenerate back it seems)), it's now technically faster. It managed to dodge Hawkeye's shot, albeit not entirely! Hawkeye's attack managed to sever one of its front claw, but it feels like it was meant to be easily severed to begin with. It's ready to use another of its technique... Sakura's petal attack scattered even more spores on the air. but it doesn't seem the Flymon really care all that much about the attack, letting it to hit it squarely... yet it keeps going forward! "HIKARU, SUPPORT!" "AYE!" Hikaru immediately took out his bagpipe. He know it doesn't do much for adult stage, but even so... Rousing Tune! He played a song that feels like uplifting song that makes you feel like you can win. The fact that he could do it while flying is perhaps the testament of the king's mastery in bagpiping. The target of this technique is... Rush and Data! "If only we can evolve, that can turn the table..." Yuuki muttered under his breath. The ExD Flymon immediately sends slicing wind toward Data, who it sensed was the most damaging attacker between the three Digimons. But... for some reason, it also launched the same attack at Rush! The slime mold was indeed attacked by Sakura, but it instead used the wind to move away from the Flymon. It uses the momentum to immediately goes after Hikaru whle being launched. It fired projectiles at both the king and Hawkeye! It was chilling to see machinegun fast attack launched like that. If it wasn't for their sheer distance, Hikaru is very sure that it gonna shot holes on his body. "Hawkeye, go for the slime mold! Reduce their number before they could do pincer attack!" The last thing he want is when the abdomen fully regrows and this thing... decided it would be funny to do something even worse than this ExD Flymon
Dodged Hawkeye's attack, but took Sakura's attack More spores scattered Attacked both Data and Rush with Slicing Wind: A slicing wind, simple attack. However, toward Spored opponent, this technique deals damage as if it's a two turns cooldown move. 0 turn cooldown (the one aimed at Data is 30% weaker and slower)
Cooldown: Paralyzing Slime Mold: 2/3 Wail of the Unliving: 1/4
Hikaru
Under same banner: Counter: 1 Used Rousing Tune: Hikaru whips out his trusty bagpipe and plays a song, which also enchanted with magic to increase two allies' strength and speed by 50% for three turns. This skill only can affects Hikaru if he fights solo. 4 turns cooldown. In case of only affecting one people, reduce cooldown by one. (because this affects adults, it becomes 25% on speed and strength. It's aimed at Rush and Data)
Cooldowns: Mana Burst EX 1/2 Frosty Trail 1/3
