Neo Digimon:
Digital War
Episode 19 - Battle For File Island
Chibi-Koushiro walks up. "Hi," he waves. "This series is NOT FOR KIDS. It is
rated R for a reason. It was not arbitrarily assigned. If you are under 18 years
old, and your parents won't let you see a rated R movie-- then you should NOT be
reading this either."
Chibi-Koushiro coughed. "Anyway. The characters are properties of Toei Animation
Inc., Saban Entertainment and others. They are used without consent. Archive is
only borrowing them for an indefinite amount of time.
"Strict Japanese spelling for all names when possible. If an English name for a
digimon or his attack is used and you know what the name is supposed to be in
Japanese-- please tell Archive so it can be corrected."

"Panjamon led a small group of Perfection level digimon into Primary Village.
While Monzaemon fought Waru Monzaemon, the Chosen and their digimon battled
against a new Vamdemon and Phantomon, the uninjured adult digimon from Unimon's
troops tried to fight Panjamon and were all killed. In the end, only the Chosen
and their digimon were able to defeat Panjamon and return him to being Leomon,"
Kuro explained in an angry tone.
"Now the one behind the killing on innocence has appeared, the dark lord Devimon
evolved, Skull Satamon!"
_________________
The night sky seemed to darken as giant form with black wings attached to red
and black skeleton holding an evil looking staff. He gloated haughtily, "I WAS
Devimon, but I have evolved! You can't stand against the perfected might of
Skull Satamon!"
"DIE!" Kuro screamed as he shot up into the air.
"Don't!" Hikari cried out, unwittingly sending out energy to him.
"Piyomon evolve!" There was no pillar of light, rather the black Piyomon
shimmered in a glowing light and grew to the size of Birdramon. However, his
feather remained the same jet black color. "Sabirdramon! Mach Shadow!"
Skull Satamon saw the bird begin his super-sonic speed attack quickly stretched
out his hand and backed off a little. Sabirdramon was moving too fast to change
direction, he flew straight into the bony clawed fingers. The giant skeleton's
arm was yanked hard as the black bird gutted himself on the claws.
The Chosen and their digimon could only stare as Sabirdramon deleted after only
one attack.
Skull Satamon peered down at his enemy. "Now, I'll give you two options. One,
you all follow me to Railroad Field where you entered this village and fight, or
two, I'll just kill you all here and now."
"You don't want to damage Primary Village any more than we do," Koushiro
surmised.
"Correct. If I ruin this place, I don't get my army. However, none of the
innocent digimon that are being killed will be reborn either," Skull Satamon
said haughtily.
"We've got no choice. We agree," Daisuke called out.
_________________
The Chosen and the Chosen digimon, including Gomamon who was now with Hikari,
went to Railroad Field as Skull Satamon instructed.
"How nice of you to walk into your deaths," Skull Satamon said with disdain.
"This was too easy." He reared back with his staff and threw it into the ground.
The Chosen and the digimon were caught in what felt like an Earthquake as the
ground began to buckle and collapse. All the children fell into a large
underground cavern filled with untold number of Black Gears. While some of the
digimon were able to avoid falling by flying, they had to fly down to catch
their partners and the other Chosen. However, the pillars of Black Gears in the
underground cave served to separate everyone.
Skull Satamon swooped down and grabbed his staff which remained at the starting
point of the large hole. After he flew inside, the ground resealed itself. "Let
the game begin."
_________________
Stingmon saw that XV-mon already had caught Daisuke, but noticed Hikari and
Gomamon weren't as fortunate. He streaked down and grabbed them several meters
above the ground, but skidded as his feet touched the ground while trying to
keep from crashing.
"Whoa. Wild ride," Gomamon commented a little dizzily.
Stingmon looked around and only could see walls of Black Gears around him.
"Where are we?"
"Inside File Island, I guess," Hikari replied uncertainly. "Thanks for the
save."
"No problem," Stingmon replied.
"Any idea where Daisuke is?" Gomamon asked.
"I think he's this way," Stingmon answered, and began to walk in that direction
still holding Hikari and Gomamon.
They turned a corner in the underground maze and Stingmon had to back off as
XV-mon took a swipe at him.
"Oops! Sorry, thought you were Skull Satamon," XV-mon said sheepishly. "He
followed us in."
"You all right, Hikari?" Daisuke called out.
"I'm fine, Daisuke-kun," Hikari replied. "You?"
"Nothing I can't handle," Daisuke answered. "Any idea where the others are?"
They all shook their heads.
Daisuke shrugged. "Guess there isn't anything more we can do but search for
them."

Greymon bounced off the ground as he landed from the fall. He shambled back to
his feet and shook his head. "That hurt."
"I'd certainly think so!" Miyako shot. "I'm surprised you're not dead."
"You say that like it's a bad thing he lived," Taichi clipped, now riding
Holsmon with her.
"That's not what I meant!" Miyako retorted.
"Now isn't the time," Holsmon intoned. "We've got to find the others."
"How are we supposed to do that?" Miyako huffed. "It's so dark down here, I can
barely see your shining helmet, let alone anything else.
Greymon sniffed the air. "This way." He pointed.
"Why that way?" Taichi asked.
"I smell Palmon's pollen," Greymon replied.
Miyako shrugged. "Good enough. Let's go."
_________________
Yamato clutched desperately to Garurumon's back as the wolf digimon hopped down,
bouncing between pillars before finally landing safely on the cavern's floor.
"Thanks, buddy," Yamato said while breathing hard.
"Anytime," Garurumon replied.
Yamato looked around, unable to see anyone. "Which direction should we go?"
Garurumon sniffed the air, and listened intently to see if he could hear
anything. "Hmmm... Palmon's pollen and Mimi's perfume is coming from the right.
However I smell Sora and Birdramon to the left."
Yamato paused for a second. "Let's go see if Sora's all right first. Then go
back for Mimi."
"If you say so. But I think Mimi would be in worse trouble," Garurumon
commented.
Sora's scream echoed through the cavern.
"Then again..." Garurumon trailed off as he started to run in Sora's direction.
"Sora!" Yamato cried out seeing the girl face down in the sandy ground with
sever small craters near her.
Birdramon wearily stood up, with one of her wings ripped open by a claw. "Sora?"
Yamato hopped off Garurumon but Sora was already moving to sit up before he
reached her. "Are you all right?" he questioned.
"Yeah," Sora replied, her voicing shaking a little. "Skull Satamon just attacked
us."
"Is he toying with us?" Yamato questioned, knowing Skull Satamon could've easily
killed both Sora and Birdramon.
"I don't think so," Birdramon replied. "Satamon mentioned something about 'not
the smallest, nor the angel' before flying off."
Yamato shivered as if someone stepped on his grave. "He's after Takeru!" He
turned toward Garurumon. "Where's Takeru?"
Garurumon sniffed around and listened intently. He then sagged. "I don't know. I
can't smell or hear either him or Patamon."
Yamato clenched his fist. "We've got to find him!"
"Let's go back and get Mimi," Garurumon suggested. "She might've noticed which
direction he went."
"Fine!" Yamato jumped on Garurumon's back. "Let's go!"
Sora just stared as the two left her and Birdramon behind.
Birdramon de-evolved to Piyomon, before carefully walking over to Sora. "Guess
we should try to follow them."
Sora nodded. "How's your wing?"
"It's seen better days," Piyomon replied simply.
_________________
"Any ideals?" Takeru asked while being carried by Angemon.
"Sorry." Angemon frowned. "If it weren't for all these black gears I could at
least sense where Skull Satamon was."
"What about the others?" Takeru questioned.
Angemon shook his head. "I can detect absolute good or absolute evil, your
friends aren't exactly 'absolute.' Skull Satamon is a different matter, but
we're surrounded by evil here."
"That's swell," Takeru sighed. "Are we just going to wander around aimlessly
then? Aren't you suppose to stay in one place when you're lost?"
"We're all lost down here," Angemon replied. "If we all stayed in one place,
we'd never be able to find each other."
Takeru shrugged. "I guess you have a point."
_________________
"Mimi?" Greymon called out looking around.
"We're up here!" Mimi cried out hanging with Palmon from one of the pillars.
"We'll get you in a moment," Holsmon replied, landing so Miyako and Taichi could
get off him.
"Hurry up!" Mimi yelled.
"I don't know how much longer I can hold on," Palmon added, urgency in her
voice.
"I'm coming," Holsmon told them, taking flight again.
Suddenly the area illuminated with light, however they wish it hadn't. Skull
Satamon hovered toward them holding his glowing staff. He glanced at each of
them. "Bah. None of you are the smallest either. Nail Bone!" He whirled the
staff sending out a spray of explosive energy spikes.
Mimi and Palmon cried out as one spike exploded near them, causing them to fall.
Holsmon streaked toward them and Palmon immediately wrapped her vines around his
body, while he grabbed Mimi by the back of her skirt and panties.
Mimi's eyes went wide as her panties went up more than her butt crack, giving
her a spike of pleasure and pain mixed. She was quite thankful that Holsmon set
her down on the ground quickly so she could adjust her panties correctly.
Fortunately for Mimi, Taichi's attention had been on Skull Satamon. He now
pointed off into the darkness and ordered, "We've got to go after Satamon!"
"How?" Miyako questioned. "We barely know which direction he went. He could be a
hundred feet away, waiting to ambush us."
Taichi growled and punched a pillar. "You heard him. He's after the smallest.
That has to be Hikari."
"Wrong!" Yamato yelled as he came into view riding Garurumon. "He's after the
one with the angel, and that's Takeru."
"Either way, we still have to find them," Mimi pointed out. "Anyone have an idea
which direction they might be?"
Garurumon sniffed the air. "All I smell is Sora coming towards us."
"What about Skull Satamon?" Taichi questioned. "He was just here."
"His scent is all around us," Garurumon replied.
"Any ideals how we should look for them?" Miyako questioned.
Taichi though for a moment. "Greymon, lob a few fireballs into the air, away
from us."
Greymon shrugged, aimed away from everyone, including Sora, and hawked a
fireball into a high arc. It worked to cast enough light let them see deeper
into the cavern. However, it served to filll them with more dread as the falling
fireball made numerous eerie shadows that were soon engulfed in absolute
darkness again.
Sora was thankful for the light, since she would've walked right pass their
group and not know it as she wouldn't have seen them thanks to the oppressive
darkness.
"Now what?" Greymon asked.
"Just keep firing ahead of us while we walk," Taichi replied. "Even if we can't
see them, they'll probably see your fireball."
"So would Skull Satamon," Mimi pointed out nervously.
"He already found us once," Taichi retorted.
"Try twice," Piyomon corrected, nursing her injured wing.
"Okay, twice. He can find us again. We need to find the others quickly," Taichi
pointed out.
"Especially since anyone of them might be the smallest that Skull Satamon is
looking for," Sora added.
"Let's just find Takeru, now," Yamato said impatiently.
_________________
"Do you see that light?" Kabuterimon asked.
"Yes," Koushiro replied. "Do you think it's the others?"
"Either them or Skull Satamon," Kabuterimon answered.
Koushiro frowned. "We might as well find out."
Kabuterimon nodded before carefully flying toward the light.
The surround gloom of darkness gave way to a horrifying sight.
Skull Satamon laughed. "You might not have the angel, but you certainly seem
small enough."
"What's this about the smallest?" Koushiro questioned in fear.
"It was prophesied that I would die by the smallest Chosen. I will make sure
that never comes to pass," Skull Satamon replied. He then pointed his staff and
called out, "Nail Bone!"
Kabuterimon tried to dodge, but caught a couple energy spikes in his back. He
screamed in pain before crashing to the ground.
Koushiro tumbled across the ground, his lame leg throbbing in pain again along
with soon to form bruises. He blearily looked up only to see Skull Satamon point
his evil staff directly at him.
"Scratch one Chosen. Nail Bone!" Skull Satamon fired his attack.
Koushiro couldn't possible dodge. He could only curl up into a ball, praying
that the attack would somehow miss him.
A cry of pain echoed throughout the cavern and a heavy weight crashed on top of
Koushiro. At first he thought it was his own injured body refusing to move, but
when he opened his eyes he found that Taichi's limp body was covering him.
Koushiro could only stare at the burns on Taichi's back and lower right leg,
unsure if Yagami was even breathing.
The screams of "Taichi!" echoed through the air while Skull Satamon merely
laughed haughtily and wasted no words as he prepared to attack again.

Author's Notes:
This probably ended worse since I just saw episode 34 of Tamers before writing
half of this chapter. An episode that surpasses the Zero-One battle against
Vamdemon in Odaiba for darkness level.
Coming Soon:
Episode 20 - Hollow Victory
The battle against Skull Satamon concludes, but what is the cost of this final
battle to the victor?
"OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE!"
shouts the entire chibi-Chosen as they prance around File Island.
Chibi-Daisuke tries to sneak a skirt peak of what's under chibi-Mimi's school
dress. A tail whips out from her skirt, wraps around his neck, and draws him in.
Chibi-Mimi makes a strange face and chibi-Daisuke is suddenly thrown out of her
skirt by the tail. He looks like he had been beaten into a bloody pulp.
The remaining chibi-Chosen continue the mantra until they start climbing up
Infinity Mountain. Chibi-Hikari falls off and her skirt lifts up showing a
picture of a broken heart on her white panties.
"Now for a little extra," chibi-Hikari moans.
------------------
"Welcome back to 'Whose Line is it Anyway' - Digimon style," Referee announced.
"To recap our guests, we have Bobby from Lord Archive's Diaries series."
Bobby waved, a blond America boy of fourteen who was dressed in torn jeans and a
new T-shirt with 'Shameless Plug: Read War Diaries Entry 13' written on it.
"Hirokazu, or 'Kazu' to you North American viewer, to represent the Digimon
Tamers," Referee continued. "Also we have Armadimon for Adventures Zero-Two,
and...." Referee glanced to make sure who was in the forth seat. He then
coughed. "Along with Gomamon representing Zero-One.
"Now for the second part of theater styles," Referee stated. "This will be for
Armadimon and Gomamon. They'll come up and act out a scene using various film or
television genres. As we don't have a live audience, I'll have to come up with
them as we go. The scene will be acting IS: two geeks talking about the same
girl who they both secretly like."
Gomamon and Armadimon moved forward and gazed deeply into the audience.
"You know, she's a really sweat girl," Gomamon said fondly.
"Certainly is, and pretty cute too. Think she's seeing anyone?" Armadimon asked.
"Don't know." Gomamon glanced over. "But I doubt she'd be interested in you."
Armadimon shot him a look. "She's out of your league."
BUZZ
"Sport's movie," Referee announced.
Armadimon continued, "You have as much chance of getting her as you do beating
me in bowling!"
"Bah, you wouldn't have a chance against me!" Gomamon retorted.
"You want to bet?" Armadimon challenged.
"Hell, yes. Winner gets to ask her out," Gomamon called out.
Armadimon's eyes widened. "You mean I'd have to TALK with her."
Gomamon flinched. "Right, we would have to talk with her..."
BUZZ
"Soap opera," Referee called out.
"Did you hear how about her last boyfriend?" Gomamon questioned.
Armadimon shook his head. "No. I haven't."
"He died," Gomamon stated firmly.
"How?" Armadimon asked.
"He was murdered," Gomamon informed him.
"Really?" Armadimon asked.
"Yeah. How else do you explain someone drowning in her bedroom?" Gomamon
returned.
Tentomon jumped down in front of Gomamon. "I will have my revenge!"
Gomamon screamed like a little girl. "Her boyfriend?! But I killed you!"
BUZZ
Referee was staring at Tentomon. "Okay. Let's go with B-movies now!"
"You did kill. I come back from dead to have revenge!" Tentomon said poorly.
Gomamon seemed to scamper around quickly but didn't go anywhere, while Tentomon
followed slowly and was catching up.
"Kill!" Tentomon called out.
Gomamon attempted to move in slow motion as he slapped Tentomon in the face, who
then teetered backward and fell to the ground.
BUZZ
"Finish with Hospital Drama," Referee intoned.
Gomamon and Armadimon moved to either side of Tentomon.
"Scalpel," Gomamon asked for.
Armadimon pretended to hand him one. "Did you know this guy is dating Nurse
Joy?"
"He is?" Gomamon question, his flipper with the scalpel 'accidentally' slipping
over Tentomon.
Tentomon cried out in pain.
"Doctor, you must be more careful," Armadimon reminded. Then looked away.
"Still, you can imagine my surprise when I found the two of them making love."
Gomamon seemed to pale as his flipper slipped again.
Tentomon seized up before falling limp.
"Oh, dear, Doctor! You just killed the patient!" Armadimon cried out in horror.
"Just because you loved Nurse Joy is no reason to kill him!"
Hirokazu and Bobby walked down and picked up Gomamon.
"You're under arrest for the murder of Tentomon," Hirokazu informed him.
"I didn't mean to do it! It's just malpractice!" Gomamon cried out as he was
carried away.
Armadimon then laughed evilly. "Now that those two are out of my way, Nurse Joy
will be all mine!"
BUZZ
"Don't know if that's Hospital Drama or a Hospital Soap Opera." Referee
shrugged. "What does it matter anyway? This isn't Medabots and I'm not getting
paid to care. Stay tuned for the next installment of Who's Line is it Anyway -
Digimon style after the next chapter of Neo Digimon - Digital War!"
