Old Ones Return (VI)

E"That wouldn't work, sprinkler systems don't use the main power system. Probably not the water, either."

Ts"So what do you suggest? We blow down the doors & run like Hell?"

E"Between the cards & the D-Power shields, I'm sure we have enough protection."

T"No, no, that's far too reckless!"

D<What, like charging into Kurata's base? I say we just get going before he finds us.>

G<But aren't you worried about dissolving?>

D<Like we've never faced that threat before.>

A<Good point. I'm with Euryale.>

Ts"Big surprise there."

Lunamon:<Alright, let's go blow up some of Kurata's stuff and rescue the parents!>

*Fist pump*

Azuma: "This threat of dissolving is different than the last. It's not like they'd have D-Reaper mojo running through their pipes."

D<Whatever, still been there, done that. 'Sides, he said we'd de-digivolve first. So it's not like we won't have warning. Better than wasting time here.>

E"How do we get those clearance cards?"

Data<I can find a secluded space & place a request for detention center guards. You can wait for them to emerge & retrieve them.>

T"But, if they find you out, won't you be deleted?"

Data<A calculated risk.>

Cameron:<How should we place a request?>

Azuma: "Say their assistance os required in another part of the facility."

Data<Affirmative. That is my general stratagem.>

D<Alright, I'm starting to get mad. I'm not going to stand here waiting for someone to find me & start shooting at me. Like that guy!>

*She points to Netzach, who is descending the stairs. Datamon & Venusmon run into a hallway. He looks around & Wizardmon pokes a hole in the sound bubble with her staff.*

Netzach<You know I can smell ya, right? Can't stay hidden forever. And someone put all those guards to sleep. So, I'm guessing...some kinda Sleepinggasmon? Dreammon? C'mon, we're all friends, here. Give Unkie Netzach a hint. I promise to only destroy you a little?>

*He makes a little pinching motion with his fingers.*

Monodramon growls.

Hideki: "Yield."

*Everyone glares at the asshole making the noise, except for Kylie, who's too nice but probably pissed too*

*Everyone with good sense shuffles off after Venusmon & Datamon.*

*Following!*

Everyday they're shuffling!

*Heading down a staircase.*

E"So, split up, head to east & west ends, & use Datamon to keep in touch?"

Azuma: "Why not? Besides obvious pairings anyone in dire need to go in a certain direction?"

Cameron:<Our parents?>

Ts"I'm going where my parents are, obviously."

G<That's probably something everyone should do. We may not be able to recognize your relatives.>

A<Why not just open all of the cells?>

E"We won't have time for that."

T"Also, there could be other prisoners here from before Kurata took over. People who are actually dangerous."

*Euryale shrugs.*

E"It seems like he drafted most of the lunatics into his army, but maybe."

Cameron:<I thought that was the plan from the beginning.>

Azuma: "Unless Datamon's plan worked, half of us are going to be exposed."

D<Actually, my invisibility spell affected everyone in the vicinity, & the sound barrier is easy enough to split in 2. Though you won't have any control over it without me, so you'll have to be careful.>

Cameron:<Will it move with us?>

Azuma: "Pretty convenient if it did."

D<Yeah, but I can't say how much stress it will take without breaking.>

Cameron:<So it'll likely be a one way thing?>

Salamon: "So what are we standing around for?"

D<I don't know.>

*Euryale checks her D-Power.*

E"If we have to be separated, I feel better knowing that Taiyo is with you. If something goes wrong, you'll get yourselves out first, right?"

*Wizardmon takes her hat off. Holding it over her chest, she salutes with her other hand.*

D<I would be honored to save myself over you!>

*Euryale narrows her eyes.*

E"I was obviously implying that you would come back for the rest of us."

D<Your noble sacrifice is greatly appreciated!>

Data<Fear not, large human female, for you shall have LadyVenusmon & myself to serve as escort.>

*Wizardmon turns & starts walking away, putting her hat back on. Thiera scampers after her as the bubble stretches & begins to cleft in the center. Tsune & Gomamon also follow.*

T"She's just joking!"

A<You 2 be careful out there. And don't worry about Euryale, we can take care of ourselves.>
