Chapter 6 - The Threat

Around me the ground exploded upwards, and some of the other tents were on fire. I saw Digimon running around frantically in different directions. Then in the corner of my eye I saw something flying in our direction, but more towards Gallantmon. I jumped on Gallantmon, tackling him to the ground, just as a ball of energy flew overhead. If I hadn't tackled Gallantmon to the ground, that ball of energy would have hit him, and he may have died.
"You pesky little brat," a raspy voice said.
I turned to see the source of the voice and saw a Digimon flying in the air. The Digimon was entirely new to me, I had never seen this Digimon before.
"I will not just let you hurt anyone, whoever you are!" I declared, standing up.
"Oh, yes, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Ruinmon," the Digimon said bowing.
"I don't really care who you are," I said, pulling out my Digivice. "I won't let you hurt any Digimon here."
"Are you going to try and stop me?" Ruinmon asked, with a laugh.
"Nathe," Jilly said with a worried tone in her voice.
"I'll be alright, no need to worry," I said. "So Nicole, you and Inumon up for a fight with this guy?"
"Of course," Nicole said excitedly.
I then summoned Infinimon which caught Nicole's attention.
"You have a Digimon too?" Nicole asked.
"Yes, her name is Infinimon, but now's not the time, we have to stop this Ruinmon," I said.
"I'll help too," Jilly said, pulling out a few Pokeballs.
"Your Pokemon will only get hurt Jilly, and there is no Pokemon Center around here," I said.
"Pokemon? They're real too?" Nicole asked.
"Let's talk about it later, Infinimon attack!" I said.
"Infini-fire," Infinimon said, as she shot a ball of fire in the direction of Ruinmon.
"Ha! Pathetic," Ruinmon said, putting one hand forward and causing the ball of fire to suddenly disappear.
"Go Inumon!" Nicole yelled.
Inumon rushed up and jumped at Ruinmon, slashing at him. Ruinmon just kept dodging every slash that came at him. Then Ruinmon formed another ball of energy and shot it right into Inumon, causing Inumon to fly backward and form a crater in the ground.
"Inumon!" Nicole yelled, rushing over to her Digimon.
I knew it was up to me now, yet Ruinmon was way to strong. What could I possibly do now to stop Ruinmon? Then something clicked in my head, I remembered where Guilmon and Takato Bio Merged and made Gallantmon. Maybe, just maybe me and Infinimon could do something similar. I pulled out my gold card and prepared to slide it through my Digivice.
"Digi-Modify!" I yelled as I slid the card through the card reader on my Digivice. "Bio Merge....Activate!"
Light shined from my Digivice brightly and hit Infinimon and me.
"Bio Merge Digivolution activated," a voice coming from my Digivice said.
I felt my body getting pulled towards Infinimon and get pulled inside. I could hear and feel everything Infinimon could. Then I felt something deep inside, Infinimon was Digivolving.
"Infinimon....Digivole to.....Universalmon," I felt my mouth say.
I moved my hands up towards my face to look at it. My hands were humanoid hands, like they've always been, except they were pure white, not the peachy color skin I normally have. I looked down to the rest of my body and nearly screamed, seeing breasts coming out of my chest. I was a female Digimon, and it wasn't something that I found very pleasant. Out of curiosity I reached my hand down my stomach and found something I was hoping wasn't what I was thinking it would be, and yet it was. My worst nightmare was turning into a girl, and that had now come true, although I was a Digimon.
"This is amusing to say the least," Ruinmon said.
I removed my hand quickly and looked up to Ruinmon floating in the air.
"Oh, you're not going to do anymore?" Ruinmon said, making a sad puppy dog face.
"Shut up! You are so dead!" I yelled out in a feminine voice, which was no real surprise now, considering I was female. "Universe Destroyer!"
My left hand turned into a large cannon and the tip of the cannon began blinking faster and faster. I felt something forming within my cannon arm, something very powerful. I then bent my knees slightly and then launched myself into the air, pointing my cannon arm at Ruinmon, and releasing the energy in a 50 foot wide energy ball directly at Ruinmon. The ball of energy continued into the ground half a mile away, forming an extremely large crater. I then faced the Digimon homes that were on fire, grabbed my cannon arm with the other hand, turning it right a couple clicks, making it turn to a water cannon, and began dousing the flames with the water, hovering in the air as I did so. I continued dousing the fire until all of it was gone, then I landed briefly on the ground near Jilly and Nicole.
"I'll be right back, stay here please," I said.
I then jumped into the air, flying again into the air. Then I turned my body head first, in the direction that Ruinmon flew off to, and flew off in that direction. I wanted to see if I had finished him or not. It took only a fraction of a second for me to get there. I hovered over the center of the crater, smoke coming up from it slightly. The crater was pretty deep, and I still didn't see Ruinmon anywhere in sight. Could he have been deleted already? Is that possible without my absorbing him? I flew around doing a perimeter check then returning to the crater. I flew down to get a closer look, hoping to look for Ruinmon. I thought maybe he was buried under dirt from the blast I shot at him. I dug at the dirt, in search of Ruinmon furiously, with no luck in finding him.
"Where are you Ruinmon?!" I yelled into the air with no answer.

Meanwhile elsewhere...

Ruinmon struggled with every step back to his boss, now standing before a shadowy figure.
"What happened to you?" the shadowy figure asked.
"I-I was defeated by a human boy and a female Digimon. They Bio Merged together," Ruinmon said, with slight fear in his voice.
"What?! A human boy?" the shadowy voice said angrily, standing to it's feet.
"He stopped me from destroying Gallantmon in Gamma Village," Ruinmon said.
"Very well," the shadowy figure said. "This boy cannot get in the way of my plans again. If you fail me again, you will regret it."
"Yes, I shall not fail you again, I underestimated the boy last time, I will not underestimate him again," Ruinmon said.
"You had better not," the shadowy figure said.

Back with Universalmon...

"Argh!" I yelled punching into the ground hard.
I decided then that Ruinmon must have gotten away, or was deleted somehow. I then jumped into the air again, and flew back to Jilly and Nicole.
"Is Inumon alright?" I asked.
"Yes, thank you," Nicole said.
"What about you?" Jilly asked, walking towards me.
"Yes, I am alright," I said. "I'm not hurt at all. I'm kind of getting used to this body. I don't know how long it will last though."
"I'm so glad," Jilly said, hugging me tightly.
"Glad that I'm alright? Or glad that I'm getting used to this new body?" I asked her curiously.
"I'm glad for both," Jilly said.
My eyes nearly bulged out of my head when she said that. I wondered why she would be glad that I'm beginning to get used to this body. I felt her hand slide down my thigh gently, and my eyes bulged more, if that's even possible.
"Is Ruinmon destroyed?" Nicole asked.
"I'm not sure, I didn't find any bit of data from him around the area, so he was either deleted or he survived and escaped," I said.
"I thank you, err..." Gallantmon started, not sure what to call me.
"Call me Universalmon for now," I said, thrusting my chest into the air with my chin high.
I'm not sure why I did that, it felt like I was flaunting my breasts, as if I was trying to impress Gallantmon with their size or something. I then quickly noticed what I was doing, and pulled my chest back.
"Okay, Universalmon, I must thank you for saving my life," Gallantmon said.
"Oh that," I said. "It was nothing, I was just doing the right thing."
"Don't be so modest, you really did good," Nicole said.
"Well, then you're - " I started, then feeling as if I was being watched and stopped.
I looked up into the air looking for anything that might be flying in the air, but found nothing.
"What is it?" Jilly asked me.
"I feel as if I'm being watched, and I have this foreboding feeling that something bad is going to happen," I said.
"That's comforting," Nicole said sarcastically.
"You should go see Sakuyamon," Gallantmon said. "Maybe she can help you get home. She's just south, south west of here."
"I shall do that thank you," I said, turning to face the south, south west direction.
"I'm coming with you, this is all too interesting to pass up," Nicole said, jogging to catch up to me.
"And of course I'm going wherever you're going," Jilly said.
"Well, then let's get going," I said, walking in the direction I was facing.
Jilly followed closely to my left side as we walked. Nicole quickly had Inumon return to her Digivice and ran to catch up to me and Jilly, walking to the left of Jilly. I looked forward thinking hard about the foreboding feeling I had.
"I can tell that this is only just the beginning," I thought to myself.
We continued walking for several hours, taking a break every so often. After a while we arrived at a town, but something was terribly wrong with it. There wasn't a single Digimon in sight, and some of the buildings were in ruin. This definitely wasn't good, whatever happened here, I felt had some connection with Ruinmon.
"Oh my god, this is terrible," Nicole said, noticing a Digimon lying on the ground nearby and pointing to it.
I looked to the Digimon, it was a Bullmon. Bullmon was the Hope Armor Digivolved form of Wormmon, or so I remembered. I rushed over to Bullmon to see if it was alright, I was wrong. Bullmon was badly hurt and twitched it's legs every so often in pain. It apparently fought a very strong Digimon, and lost.
"What happened here?" I asked Bullmon.
"We...were...attacked from...out of...nowhere," Bullmon said, with labored breathing.
"By who?" I asked.
"Someone who looked...just like...you," Bullmon said, then became limp.
I knew then that Bullmon has just died, as Bullmon's data began blowing into the air like leaves. I felt myself absorb Bullmon's data, to add his power to mine. I wondered what Bullmon meant by someone who looked just like me. There couldn't possibly be another Universalmon, or could there? Or did Bullmon see the human that I really am? That would mean there is a human who looks just like me, but I don't have any twin.
"This doesn't make any sense," I thought to myself.
