Rika pulled out her D-Power.
The Digimon bird was about as big as a Birdramon. He was covered with spiky, blue feathers, and his neck was surrounded with a collar of white feathers. He had a short, but curved beak, and the rest of his face was covered by a red, spiky mask. His feet ended in sharp talons.
"BioThunderbirmon..." Rika muttered. "Level Champion. No other data available."
"An unknown Digimon?" Kenta yelped as they had to dodge yet another barrage of lightning that came down from the bird's wings. "How can that be? Today, every known Digimon has to be registered. Even such unknown species as TinyDevimon and ChibiBakemon are registered within the government computers... and even the four Sovereigns themselves!"
We will have to find that out later," Rika grumbled. "First we have to deal with that wacky bird."
"Won't be too difficult, I suppose," Terriermon smirked. "I mean, he is all by himself, is he?"
"What's wrong?" BioThunderbirmon's voice came thundering from above. "Less prattling, more fighting!"
"Well, if you insist..." Guilmon grumbled.
Takato stepped next to his brother.
"Takato..."
"Guilmon..."
"Hybrid Digivolution to... Ceratomon/BlueCeratomon!"
The others didn't let him wait either.
"Terriermon Digivolve to... Gargomon!"
"Harmony Hybrid Digivolve to... Dachsmon! Dachsmon Digivolve to... Canismon!"
"Renamon Digivolve to... Kyubimon!"
"Rika Hybrid Digivolution to... Kitsumon!"
Nalamon was already on her Champion Level, so she didn't have to digivolve.
"Um, we just hide here until you are finished with him..." Kenta spoke up.
"I knew it wasn't a good idea that Guardromon and MarineAngemon got those jobs..." Kazu whined. "They are never there when you need them..."
"Well, that was quite the lightshow," BioThunderbirmon laughed. "Now show me your power!"
"Bring it on!" BlueCeratomon shouted, while he and his brother went into their battle stances. Kitsumon did it likewise. Canismon pulled out her boomerang. Guardromon brandished his guns. Kyubimon spread out her tails like a fan.
Again, BioThunderbirmon swooped down from the sky. "Thunderstorm!"
The others answered with their own attacks.
"Aura Sphere!" both Ceratomon Brothers shouted at once.
"Gargo Pellets!"
"Fox Tail Inferno!"
"Flare Bullet!"
"Bone Boomerang!"
"Fist of the Beast Queen!"
But the the Hybrid Tamers' attacks never hit their target.
"Is that all you got?" Bio Thunderbirmon mocked. "I thought you were better than that."
"What just happened?" Canismon asked in confusion.
"His lightning bolts have disrupted our attacks," Kyubimon realized. "We will have a hard time hitting them whenever he is using it."
"Well, we just have to beat him in close combat then," Ceratomon grumbled. "You coming, bro?"
"Thought you'd never ask," BlueCeratomon grinned, and both humanoid dinosaur Hybrids jumped on top of the fence, and from there, right at their enemy.
"Twin Comet Horn!" they shouted as they combined their attack and hit BioThunderbirmon from both sides at once.
"Well, that stung a little..." BioThunderbirmon grumbled. "But not much." He shook them both off and concentrated on the Champion Hybrids, which were his bigger threat.
"If you want to get close to me... you just had to ask!"
And he dive-bombed right into the middle of the assembled Tamers.
"Watch out!" Kyubimon shouted and tackled Kitsumon to the ground. Terriermon and Canismon dove to the other side.
But Nalamon, suddenly overcome with a surge of confidence, stood her ground. "No problem! I'll knock him out of the sky... Royal Kick!"
"Jeri! Don't!" BlueCeratomon screamed and ran towards her. But it was too late.
Nalamons powerful foot connected squarely with the lightning bird's face... but unfortunately, his hard mask protected him from the force.
Instead of throwing her opponent backwards with her kick, Nalamon got thrown backwards herself as BioThunderbirmon slammed his beak right into her stomach. An additional flap of his wings caused a sudden shockwave that blew Nalamon even further, causing her to crash into a house wall.
"Hah! Weakling!" BioThunderbirmon laughed.
This phrase made BlueCeratomon see red.
"JERRIIIIII..."
----
"C'mon, let's play one more time!" ChibiBakemon said excitedly as she bounced up and down on the sofa.
"Um... okay," Kai replied. Well, this babysitting wasn't as bad as he had figured. Eiko was actually a pretty nice kid.
Still, he was worried about Takato and his friends. His cousin told him they would just go and follow some clues, but knowing them, they would run right into trouble. Hopefully they would do fine without his help as the Game Master...
Well, if things would look too bad, they could always digivolve. While the Tamers had been in the Digital World, Kai had spent most of his time to design a few more Champion forms for them.
He hoped that Takato and Guilmon liked the forms he had made for them.
"Hey!" Eikos annoyed voice pulled him out of his thoughts. "Concentrate on the game!"
"Oh! Sorry about that! Where were we?"
Eiko grinned. "You were getting your butt kicked by me!"
"Are you SURE it's not just because of that character you chose?"
"No, I'm just better than you!"
Kai sighed. While he had fun, he wondered if Eiko was actually interested in another game than Super Smash Bros. Melee...
He threw her a dark glance. "I we would play Mario Kart Double Dash, I would SO beat you!"
----
Two spheres of light rose up into the air on both sides of BioThunderbirmon.
He smirked. "Well, well, I was already wondering when you would digivolve as well! Bring it on!"
"CERATOMON DIGIVOLVE TO... MEGALOMON!"
"BLUECERATOMON DIGIVOLVE TO... BARIOMON!"
Suddenly, BioThunderbirmon found himself surrounded by two dinosaur Digimon that were about as big as Greymon.
Megalomon was looking similar to Tyrannomon, but with Guilmon-like ears on his skull and various parts of plate armor on his body.
Bariomon was much sleeker, had a long, thin muzzle, an elongated neck and nasty-looking claws on his forelegs. He also had a pair of goggles on his forehead.
"All right!" he sneered. "Now we're talking!"
Canismon looked up at the two massive dinosaurs in awe. Nalamon, who was slowly recovering from her collision with the wall, was dumbfounded as well.
They then exchanged a dissatisfied look. "Why can't WE be as big as them?"
Megalomon wasted no time. "Vulcan Punch!"
He pulled back his fist, which got surrounded with fire. He then smacked it hardly against BioThunderbirmon's body. The sharp feather were stinging him, but he ignored the pain.
"Was that supposed to impress me?" the thunderbird laughed. "Thunderstorm!"
Megalomon yelped as the thunder attack electrocuted him.
"Is that the only attack you got?" Bariomon mocked and jumped at his opponent from behind. "Sickle Claw!"
BioThunderbirmon screeched in pain as Bariomon buried the curved claw on his right hand into his body.
Kenta and Kazu, who were watching the battle from afar, shook their heads in disbelief.
"I never thought Takato could be so... savage," Kazu murmured.
"Get OFF me!" BioThunderbirmon screeched and took off into the sky, shaking Bariomon off. He winced when the sharp claw got forcefully pulled out of his flesh.
"Now I'm gonna make you pay!" he shouted. "No one is strong enough to beat me, you hear? NO ONE!"
And he came flying down again, grabbing the dazed Bariomon's arms with his talons and dragging him up into the air.
"TAKATO!" Megalomon shouted. He lunged at his opponent, but BioThunderbirmon nimbly dodged.
"Let's see if you can withstand a drop from THIS height," the blue bird chuckled as he ascended even more. "Ready to drop?"
"In your dreams..." Bariomon snarled and turned around his flexible neck. "FROST BITE!"
He bit his enemy savagely into the leg, and it instantly got covered with a thick layer of ice.
"GYYYAAAAAAHHH! You filthy little..."
But he couldn't stand the pain for long, so he had to let go of his prey. Bariomon reacted quickly and jumped up on BioThunderbirmons back, just as the flying Digimon was plummeting to the ground.
Kouki tried to flap his wings, but the stinging pain in his right leg made it hard to concentrate.
Bariomon waited until the very last moment, then he jumped off his enemy's body, just as it crashed down to the floor. He landed on top of the wire-mesh fence and shouted: "Now, Megalomon!"
His brother reacted instantly: "MELTDOWN!"
He opened his mouth wide, and a hot burst of scorching hot energy came shooting out of it, covering BioThunderbirmon's body with a coating of molten magma.
"YEEEOOOUUUUUCCHHHH!" he screamed. "HOT! HOT HOT!"
He flapped his singed wings frantically, until he was freed from the burning pain. "You guys are crazy..." he muttered. "First you freeze me, then you burn me... Make up your mind already!"
He then grumbled: "Well, seems like you are too strong for me. I'll let you go... today! But I will come back, you here me? I won't forget you until I have defeated you! Remember that well, dino-boys!"
With a wince, he turned around and flew away.
Megalomon was going to blast him from behind, but his brother stopped him in time.
"You wanna let him go?"
The blue-scaled brother nodded at his fiery counterpart. "Why delete him when he surrenders? We are not in the Digital World, remember that! We still have to follow the laws. And what we just did was nothing but self-defense, right?"
"Well, that's one way to put it..." the red-scaled dinosaur shrugged. He then grinned. "But for a moment I believed you were gonna bite off his leg."
Bariomon grinned. "Well, Mom should have made more pancakes for breakfast..."
"Hey!" Kitsumons voice suddenly came from down below. "Big boys! You wanna stay like this for the whole day? I don't believe you can enter the basement like that... even if we find it!"
"Oh, right!" Bariomon grinned sheepishly. "Sorry about that, Rika!"
The two-tailed Rookie vixen crossed her arms and huffed.
Gargomon snickered. "I guess she's just mad that she's the only one who still has to reach the Champion Level..."
----
BioThunderbirmon didn't fly away too far. He landed directly in the nearby junkyard, where he hid behind a big pile of junk. He then turned back into his human form.
"Man, I'm gonna feel this for months..." he grimaced. "But I haven't shown them my true power yet..."
Kouki pulled a cell phone out of his pocket and dialed Alice's number. "Kouki here! I had to retreat, but it was a fun battle! Where are you two now?"
"We found the entrance to the basement," Alice's voice spoke out of the phone. "It's bigger than I thought, we will need some time until we find what we have been searching for. You might as well go back to Yamacus, you won't be able to come after us without the others seeing you."
"Okay, I got it, boss-lady!"
A short pause.
"Don't call me that!!"
