Eiko stood in front of her mother, a coy smile on her face. "Um... hi, Mom!"
Mizuki Sasaki, overstrained mother of two daughters, and ex-wife of a Bakemon, stared at the attractive, pale-skinned woman in front of her. "Ei... eiko?" she stuttered. She then turned to the equally attractive Lillymon, envious that a pair of children had bigger breasts than her. "Kei?"
Kei sighed. "Eiko, I guess it's time to explain everything to your mother..."
Yui, who barely was able to stand upright on her two legs, didn't say anything. She just sucked on her thumb.
Some time later, they were all sitting in the living room. Stingmon was sitting on the sofa next to Mrs. Sasaki and her eldest daughter, and suppressed a gasp of surprise, when all of a sudden, Yui leaned over so that she was slumbering in his lap.
"I hope you don't mind, sir," her mother sighed. "Yui's not like herself today... but neither are you, young lady!" she frowned and looked at Eiko.
"Yeah, isn't it cool?" Eiko grinned. "You always said you wished one of your daughters was a bit more mature..."
Mrs. Sasaki rolled her eyes. "That's not what I meant, Eiko... but anyways... how do you plan on fixing this mess?"
"I suppose we just have to deal with it for now... and later, when all the important stuff has been taken care of, I can try to find a way to..."
"Excuse me?" Eiko's mother glared. "What could be more important than bringing me my little babies back? My eldest daughter is acting like she's barely potty-trained, and my little Eiko has turned into a... a whore!"
"Hey, I'm not a whore!" Eiko defended herself.
"Then why does your dress have a cleavage deeper as the Grand Canyon?" Mrs. Sasaki shouted. "You won't enter my house dressed like this, Eiko Sasaki!"
"Fine!" Eiko crossed her arms, which emphasized her ample bosom even more. "Then I'll stay with Kei... at least she's not a stick-in-the-mud, like you..."
Realizing that the deep frown on Mrs. Sasaki's face foreshadowed certain doom, Kei quickly threw in: "Now let's all calm down, okay? I mean, we've got more serious troubles than this..."
"What can be worse than this disaster?" Mrs. Sasaki shouted.
Kei stood up from her chair. "May I show you?" She walked over to the window, opened it and pointed at the distant fleet floating above the park. "Is that bad enough?"
"Well, let the authorities deal with it," Eiko's mother snapped. "I don't see how that is connected with what my little girls are going through..."
"I'm not a baby anymore, Mom!" Eiko said and stuck out her tongue.
"But don't you see? All of this only happened because of the RPG Maker, and Eiko and I are working to return everything back to normal."
"Well, how about you start with my daughters... or your mother, for that matter?" She gestured at the little Tanemon, who was happily munching on a piece of chocolate offered by Eiko. "After all, I really think you need some adult supervision... nothing against you, sir, but..."
"Ma'am, I think you really underestimate the threat of that program," Stingmon frowned. "As a soldier, I am trained to recognize a threat to society, and that's exactly what that program is. And since neither you nor I can actually see the pictures on the screen, I suggest we wait and leave everything to my sister and your daughter. Kei is right: If we don't do anything, the whole town is in danger."
"I don't care!" Mrs. Sasaki yelled. "I just want my babies back!"
Suddenly, Yui, who was still lying in Stingmon's lap, opened her eyes. With her thumb still in her mouth, she stared up at the insect soldier. "Um... hello?" she mumbled.
"Oh, uh... looks like your daughter is back to normal, Mrs. Sasaki..." Stingmon blushed.
Yui quickly sat up. "GAH! Sorry about that! I mean... Mom, where are we? How did I get here? Who's this guy and... those ladies?"
Eiko grinned. "Why, thank you, sis! Now you wish you had a body like mine, huh?"
Yui gasped. "EIKO? B-but how...? I mean..."
Kei groaned. "Look, I don't have the time to explain this again. Bro, why don't you tell her? I have to go back and take care of our current problem. I still have to place a few backup provisions in places where the Hybrid Tamers will come through. If I don't hurry, Bio will take over... Eiko, can you take care of my Mom? And Mrs. Sasaki... PLEASE try to understand that I'm not doing this willingly. I'm doing this because I HAVE to. And as soon as I find a way to turn me, Eiko, or my Mom back to normal, I will do it. But for now, I have some work to do."
And with those words, Kei left a baffled Mrs. Sasaki behind while walking back to the PC.
Holy looked at her a bit reproachfully. "Wasn't that a bit harsh?"
"If she were able to see you, you could have talked to her yourself," Kei grumbled. "And now shut up and place some items in the Blimpmon already!"
"Sheesh, no need to take it out on me..." Holy muttered.
"I'm sorry, Mom," Eiko said while tickling Miss Asaji. "But Kei really wants to help, you know?"
"I guess so," her mother sighed. "I mean, if she really said the truth, I can understand that it's pretty hard for her. So much responsibility at such a young age... I'm just glad Yui's all right..."
Yui winced. She didn't dare tell her mother yet that her... condition came back to haunt her on a regular basis...
"Are... are you feeling better now?" Stingmon asked her.
"Um, yes," she blushed. "Thanks for asking..."
Her mother raised an eyebrow when she saw how her daughter was acting around this young, handsome Digimon... having been married to a Digimon once, she wondered if this was the perfect chance for Yui to let go of her Renamon infatuation...
"DAMN!" Kei suddenly cursed. "That motherf*** bastard... now the holy rays I came up with are USELESS!"
Mrs. Sasaki sweatdropped. "Now I know where Eiko learns all these expressions..." she muttered.
"FLAME DAGGER!"
"PUISSANCE DE LA PUCELLE!"
d'Arcmon and Compsomon both used their weapons to fight back against the transformed crew members of the MAGNADRAMON'S GLORY. A few Angemon and Angewomon fought at their sides, but there weren't too many left that were either transformed or defeated by their former comrades.
Finally, they reached the gunner's chamber behind the giant main cannon at the front of the ship.
"Where are the gunners?" she shouted. "Why did they leave their posts?"
"I suppose it's because they now have fur in addition to their feathers..." Mie muttered. "But anyways, can you start this thing? If we aim them at those Blimpmon, maybe we can change this battle to our favor."
"No problem!" Ai's mother said and ran to the controls. She let out an unladylike curse when she reached them, though. "DANGIT! Those creeps have sabotaged the cannon... we can't fire it anymore! I bet they did the same with all the other ray cannons..."
"What about the normal cannons? I mean, those that don't shoo holy rays? Are those still working?"
d'Arcmon's fingers flew cross the console. "Yes, those are still intact."
"Strange..." Mie frowned. "Why would she only sabotage the ray guns?"
"Maybe it's just a coincidence, but... Ai has always been an advocate of fairness. Back home, every time she noticed that Mako had more sweets than her, she'd complain and say how unfair it was..." She shook her head. "What am I talking about? This isn't Ai... not anymore..."
"Well, do you have any other solution?" Compsomon asked.
"We could still try to shoot down the Blimpmon with our 'old-fashioned' cannons... but first, I must make sure that order on my ships is restored. Wait a second..." She opened a hatch at the cannon and pulled out a white crystal that was giving off a gentle light. "Here, use this to turn any crew member you run across back to normal. Just make sure they make skin contact with the crystal..."
"Can't we use this on the Blimpmon?" Mie asked.
d'Arcmon shook her head. "We have to get in close to make them work... and while I'm a good warrior, I still can't dodge so many bombs and missiles at once, sorry!"
Mie looked out of a window, at the multitude of explosions in the sky. "You have a point there..." she murmured. Then, she suddenly saw a couple of shapes approaching the MAGNADRAMON'S GLORY...
"Are those... Jeri and my boys?" she wondered. She looked back at d'Arcmon and pointed out of the window. "Say... how come THEY can dodge those missiles?"
"Mako, you have to go home," MarineAngemon sighed. He, Mako and Fafnimon were sitting next to each other at the kindergarten. "The others have already left... don't you want to go as well?"
Mako shook his head. "Don't wanna..." he muttered.
"Hey there, sweetie, I know it's hard," Fafnimon said. "I mean, my Ryo is fighting again and again, and there's not a single day I'm not worried... and I can't even know how it must be for you, but... just moping doesn't help."
"I know..." Mako sighed. He looked out of the window. "Impmon is up there... why can't I help, too?"
"I hate to say it, but you're still a bit young, Mako," MarineAngemon said.
"Why can't I become bigger like Ai?" Mako frowned. "That's not fair..."
"Hey, you're a TinyDevimon," Fafnimon grinned. "Since when do you like fairness?"
"His mother is an Angel Digimon," MarineAngemon explained. "The devil gene in his body is from his great-grandfather... and while he still likes to play tricks, he's not really evil."
"Yeah, I know, I was just kidding around," the dragon woman smirked.
"Still..." Mako sighed. "I wish I could help, too..."
"Okay, that's it! No more Miss Nice Lillymon! If Bio wants to play like that, I'm gonna have to beat him with his own weapons!"
"K-kei, now don't do anything too rash," Holy said. "Besides, what are you planning to do?"
Kei grinned. "He wants an angel that's corrupted by the power of darkness? Well then... what's stopping me from using a devil... who can use the power of light?"
Holy gasped when she noticed the commands Kei had entered into the RPG Maker. "Kei, no, don't do it..."
But it was too late. Kei's finger was pressing the ENTER key...
Mako looked down at his hands in surprise when they began to glow in a soft light. "Wha... what's happening to me?"
"Mako?" MarineAngemon gasped. "You... you're digivolving!"
"Holy Minotarumon..." Fafnimon whispered. "How did that happen?"
Mako's round, little body grew in size until he was as big as a regular, human child. His tiny little bat wings grew in size and turned a brilliant white, and in addition, he gained a second pair of feathered, raven-black wings. He wore a pretty simple, white cloth outfit with a black belt and black shoes. A slim, golden ring was attached to his right arm and left leg, and a silver headband with the yin/yang symbol attached to it was around his head.
"TINYDEVIMON DIGIVOLVE TO... TWILIMON!"
Twilimon raised his hands and looked at them. Now the two powers of his ancestors within him were released... the power of light and the power of darkness.
"I'm bigger!" he gasped. "I'm... I'm stronger..." He looked up into the skies, out of the window. "Now I can help Ai!"
"M-mako, just wait a second..." MarineAngemon tried to stop the boy, but it was no use. Mako had already opened the window and flew outside.
"I'm coming, sis!"
"Oh boy..." MarineAngemon sighed. "Miss, could you please do me a favor and call his father? You'll find his number next to the phone... now I have to see if I can bring that boy back to his senses."
"Of course," Fafnimon nodded.
MarineAngemon flew after his young charge and sighed. "Those kids... they're gonna kill me some day..."
