Yuka couldn't think. Or rather, she couldn't stop thinking. Mostly about Ai's lips. The young girl groaned, and rolled over onto her stomach, burying her face into her pillow.

Tsukaimon looked over at her, concerned. “You're being mopey,” he said, sounding a little bit sad as he looked over at her.

Yuka grabbed another of the many pillows from her bed and threw it over in the general direction of Tsukaimon. She heard a small thudding noise, and figured that Tsukaimon had moved out of the way and the pillow had landed on the floor. And it wasn't long before Yuka found a familiar weight on her back. “Get off Tsukaimon.”

“Stop with the mopey!”

Yuka threw her arm at her back, hoping to knock him off. All she really managed to do was slap her hand at her back, and to make it worse Tsuakaimon hadn't even bothered to get off of her. She groaned, and quickly turned around, Tsukaimon's weight leaving her back... and then landing on her stomach with a thud.

Tsukaimon stared at her with his wide eyes. “What's wrong now? You're both mopey and blushy!”

“I am not!” Yuka protested. Then again, considering where her thoughts were, he was just telling her what she already knew. Not that she was going to admit it, like, ever.

“Yes you are!” Tsukaimon countered in a singsong voice. Then he blinked and stared at her again. “So, what's wrong?”

Yuka didn't say anything for a moment, staring up at the ceiling. Just thinking about that kiss again... kinda made her feel funny inside. She let out a sigh. “Ai kissed me,” she paused. “No, not just that. I kissed her back.”

“So?” Tsukaimon asked.

Yuka just stared at him for a moment. “We're both girls!”

Tsukaimon just blinked at her.

Yuka didn't say anything else, she just stared at her digimon for a moment. He obviously wasn't understanding why that could be a problem.

Tsukaimon then broke out into a grin “You liked Relena's chest well enough!”

Yuka growled and threw another pillow at him, grinning as it slammed into the small digimon's face. Granted, the grin faded when he went flying and she heard Tsukaimon slam into the floor, but still. For a comment like that, anyone else would've done much worse. “That was mean!” she heard her partner shout.

Yuka snorted. “You deserved it.”

“But why!?”

Yuka just ignored him and turned back over on her stomach... and then her partner pounced her again, landing on her back. This was starting to get annoying. “You're making a big deal out of nothing!” he shouted.

Yuka sighed. “It's different for humans.”

“Why?”

“Because it is. Digimon might not care about gender since an Angewomon can make babies with a Gesomon, but it doesn't work that way for me!” Yuka shouted, although why she was using that as a point she had no idea. It wasn't like she and Ai could be anywhere near that serious for a good long while anyway.

“Again, why?” Tsukaimon asked.

Yuka growled. “Because I didn't even think I liked girls until today!” she shouted.

“Again, Relena's chest staring. Ignoring obvious liking you Tomoki.”

Yuka just blinked at that. “I did what?” She asked, slowly turning over to face her partner, grabbing him by the sides as she turned over.

Tsukaimon grinned. “You ignored a boy who wanted to make out with you!” he chirped. “I didn't need to be Ikuto!”

Yuka just groaned and put her partner down, flipping over and burying her head into her pillow again.

Chapter 26: What can go Wrong...

.o0o.

Chika could only stare at Relena and the evolving Lighdramon next to her. What was going on here? Everything didn't make sense, first with Silphymon and with what was just happening here...

“Lighdramon evolve!” Lighdramon shouted, his body becoming more humanoid before his head shifted into that of a wolf. His armor exploded off of his body as black fur started growing out of his skin, torn jeans appearing on his bottom... or rather now only legs. “Were Garurumon!” the creature shouted, looking down at Chika and letting out a snarl.

Chika turned to the smirking Relena, who already had another aura of digisoul raging around her body, and within moments she had evolved into Bio Lighdramon. “Time for us to finish what we started on File Island!” And with that, the dragon and the wolf-man charged towards her.

“Where'd you get that model of digivice!?” Chika shouted as she backed away from a swipe from the other hybrid.

Relena snarled. “From someone who wants you just as dead as I do for Father's death!” she shouted, lightning gathering around her body. In the next moment, it was firing towards her.

Chika's eyes widened as the blast sent her flying backwards, slamming into the ground. She quickly brought herself to her feet, ducking under a swipe from Were Garurumon's claws. This didn't make much sense at all... “V-mon?” she asked.

“And if I am?” Were Garurumon growled before taking another swipe at her head, but Garudamon's was suddenly slamming into the side of Were Garurumon's head, sending him flying away from her.

Chika looked back over at Relena, already gathering energy in her eyes at the snarling hybrid. She fired the two beams of energy at Relena at the same time the younger girl fired off another blast of lightning, the two attacks colliding and exploding. “Where did you get that digivice!?” Chika shouted again. That model was designed by Noguchi Misuzu, and as far as Chika knew she was the only person to have one of them. Even if Kurata could've managed to make something that... “Did Kurata give that to you!?” she asked. She thought for sure that Relena was with the Virus Busters.

Relena just sent another blast of lightning over at Chika, the attack sending her crashing inot the ground again.

Chika climbed to her feet and glared over at Relena. Between this and Garudamon's fight with Were Garudamon, things weren't going well at all.

.o0o.

Ikuto glared at the other hybrid that had shown up with Relena. This was one of the guys from File Island... one of the guys that had attacked Yuka. He wasn't going to let this guy get away, not now.

Ravemon flew forward and slashed down at the hybrid with his sword. “I'm not going to lose to you guys this time!” he shouted, even as the hybrid dodged the sword strike. Ravemon just slashed at him again.

“You just tell yourself that!” the hybrid shouted, two blades on his arms glowing read as they rotated to point at Ravemon's chest. Small blasts of fire shot out of the blades at the Ultimate digimon's chest, sending Ravemon moving back a bit.

Ikuto saw the digimon charge forward towards Ravemon, his two pronged arm-blades ready to go through his partner's head. Ikuto jumped forward, his dark violet digisoul flaring to life around his body. He grabbed his boomerang off of his back and threw it at the digmon attacking his partner, but the weapon just bounced off the hybrid's armor. He let out a curse and grabbed the weapon out of the air. He turned to look over at Takeru, who was running towards the two clashing digimon, body and sword consumed by a brilliant green digisoul now. Takeru lifted his sword and prepared to strike against the hybrid.

Their attacker jumped back as Takeru swung down with his blade. “Neo Devimon! Ravemon!” he shouted.

Ravemon stabbed his sword into the pavement and concentrated. Lightning shot down from the sky towards the blade. He quickly grabbed the blade and slashed at the hybrid with it, the lightning shooting off it and slamming into the fire warrior's chest, knocking it back.

Neo Devimon flew down towards it, claws extended and shining as he slashed at the staggering hybrid, but the digimon let out a growl and easy blocked Neo Devimon's attack. “I'm not going down that easily!” he shout his arm blades glowing red.

Takeru's eyes widened and he ran forward again with his blade raised to strike.

“Bramha Sutra!” Ardhamon shouted, firing balls of flame out of the blades and into Neo Devimon's chest, knocking the viral digimon to the ground. Neo Devimon let out a scream, glowing white for a moment before Patamon was in his place and bouncing on the street.

Ikuto heard Takeru scream as black flecks appeared in his digisoul again, slashing down at the armored warrior. The blade scraped against the hybrid's armor and managed to leave a rather deep gash in it, but the fighter himself was still pretty much unharmed. The hybrid turned back towards Takeru and prepared to fire at him, but Ravemon suddenly landed and slashed at the hybrid, forcing it to jump backwards to avoid it. The hybrid recovered quickly enough, and started firing his arm cannons at Ravemon, but Ikuto's partner managed to parry all of the blasts away from him with his sword.

The hybrid let out a curse, and charged towards Ravemon again.

.o0o.

Relena charged towards Chika, lightning jumping around her body. This time she was going to make that bitch pay! “Lightning Blade!” she shouted, the lightning on her body leaping off her as she slashed down in the air with her head. The younger of the two hybrid's let out a smirk, her body almost about to start dancing in place as she saw the strike slam into Chika's back and knock her to the side.

But the grin faded as she saw Chika land on her feet and glare right at her. Relena let out a snarl and charged forward again. She was going to tear her jaws through that bitches throat! It would be such a fitting end for her.

Chika's eyes stared glowing read and she fired off beams of energy at Relena, but the younger hybrid jumped out of the way, jaws opening as she started heading towards Chika again. She wasn't going to let something like that attack keep her from what she wanted. Not now. Not again. Chika fired off another blast, but Relena dodged that too and this time as she ran forward she was too close for Chika to be able to fire another blast in time.

A blast of flame suddenly slammed into Relena's side and before she could even let out a gasp something else slammed into her head and sent her flying into a large slab of concrete. It had probably been a building before this battle had started. It took her a few moments to shrug off the feeling of a sledgehammer slamming into her skull, but she needed to get back to her feet.

Garudamon was standing near Chika, looking enraged. What happened to... and then Garudamon tossed Were Garurumon to the ground, the digimon devolving into V-mon who struggled to his feet.

“V-mon!” Relena shouted, before she broke out in a run towards her partner. “Are you alright?” she asked.

V-mon nodded. “I'm sorry,” he said, looking away from Relena for a moment.

“Don't be,” Relena said, shaking her head before turning back to Chika. She let out a small growl.

“Relena-chan! This is stupid!” Chika shouted. Like the bitch had any right to say that... even so, as things were now, Relena realized that she couldn't win. Even with Takuya helping her... this wasn't going to work. There was no way she could stop Chika from becoming Slash Angemon now.

“Takuya! We need to leave!” Relena shouted, and the hybrid just flew over to her without a word.

“I'm not going to let you run!” Ravemon shouted, flying towards the three of them.

Takuya screamed and focused a massive ball of fire in his hands before throwing it at Ravemon. He then turned back to her, not even waiting to watch the blast he threw explode and send Ravemon flying back. “If we're going to get out of here we need to do it now!” he said.

Relena nodded and devolved. And in the next moment Takuya scooped her and V-mon in his arms and took to the sky. The young girl glared in Chika's direction. She needed to get stronger! There was no way around it.

.o0o.

Chika let out a sigh, shaking her head as she devolved. That could've gone much better than it did. “We need to keep going with the plan,” she said after a moment.

Ikuto looked over at her. “But Relena and that hybrid are going to report that we were here. Any surprise that we had is gone now.”

“But what are we supposed to do!?” Chika shouted.

Takeru walked over to them, cradling Patamon in his arms. “We need to lay low for a while, probably without anyone from here knowing that we're with the main DATS force. Actually, it might be better for us to leave Yokohoma for a moment...”

Patamon shook his head and flew out of Takeru's arms. “We still have a few contacts here in Yokohoma!” he said, flapping his wings furiously. “I can blend in pretty well with the Virus Busters with my adult form. I'll go speak with a few of them, but you guys need to get Miyako to safety!”

“Wait!?” Gaudamon shouted before he devolved to Piyomon. “Right now we should get out of here. If the Three Great Angels even stay here they'll be looking for us for sure!”

Ravemon shook his head. “They've already thought of that. The outskirts of the city are probably being patrolled. Patamon's plan is probably the best one we have.”

Ikuto sighed and nodded, before pressing the button on the headset in his ear. He frowned, and then let out a curse. “They've jammed our communicators too. I thought we got that fixed after last time!” He said, pulling his out of his ear.

Chika sighed. “Alright, we'll head back to main forces for now, and bring Miyako to safety.”

Takeru nodded. “Alright then.” He began, before pulling out his digivice, a flash of green digisoul appearing around his palm. In the next moment he slammed his palm down on it and Patamon was suddenly an Angemon. He turned to his partner. “You be careful, alright?”

Angemon nodded. “Don't worry, I'll be back soon.” And with that, Patamon took off to the sky.

Chika turned to the others for a moment and sighed. For once couldn't things go well for them?
