Chapter Fourteen
Eterna City...
“Unbelievable,” Renamon snarled. “We came all this way to get those orbs and someone beat us to it!”
“Without those orbs, we won't be able to summon forth Palkia and Dialga,” Mewtwo said. “Our only chance to stop the invasion hinges on those two.”
“But who would take the orbs,” Gatomon wondered. “I mean, are they valuable?”
“Of course they're valuable,” Mewtwo replied. “They're ancient relics and as such, are priceless. I wouldn't be surprised if there were people out there who wouldn't want to add the orbs to their personal collections. In fact, one person comes to mind.”
Renamon glanced at Mewtwo. “Giovanni?”
Mewtwo nodded. “Yes. Team Rocket steal more than just rare Pokemon. They also take valuable items as well. But, I remember hearing of a group that attempted to take the orbs in a plan to capture Palkia and Dialga. Team Galactic, I believe they were called. Their leader sought to use Palkia and Dialga to reshape this universe for his own purposes.”
“He was able to take control of those two,” Renamon asked.
“Yes, he did,” Mewtwo replied. “Using the orbs, and capturing the three Mirage Pokemon, he created red chains of energy to imprison them.”
“So what happened,” Gatomon asked.
“Team Galactic was defeated,” Mewtwo continued. “A trainer named Ash and his friends freed the Mirage Pokemon and together they stopped Team Galactic and managed to calm the two Dragons' wrath. Team Galactic's leader disappeared inside a dimensional warp and the rest of the team was arrested.”
“Do you think the remnants of this team might be trying to finish what they started,” Renamon asked.
“It's a possibility,” Mewtwo said. “Though considering the disastrous results of last time, I would think they wouldn't be foolish enough to repeat it.”
“So how do we find out,” Gatomon asked.
“Good question,” Mewtwo replied.
“Perhaps I might be able to help you there.”
All three looked around, trying to spot who had spoken. But oddly, no one was in sight.
“Tell me I'm not the only one who heard someone talk,” Renamon said, her eyes darting around the area.
“Someone is here,” Mewtwo said. “I can sense him.” He glanced over at a nearby tree. “There!”
Raising his hand, the Psychic Pokemon grabbed the tree in an invisible grip and pulled it aside, revealing a human. He was dressed in a brown trench-coat and suit and had black hair.
“You know, it's not nice to eavesdrop on people,” Gatomon said.
“Who are you,” Mewtwo asked, glaring at the human.
“Allow me to introduce myself,” he replied. Reaching into his coat, he pulled out a badge. “The name's Looker, and I'm an International Police officer.”
“You're a lawman,” Mewtwo said.
“Correct,” Looker replied. “As it is, I'm investigating the theft of the Adamant and Lustrous orbs.”
“So what was with the disguise,” Gatomon asked, holding up the ''tree''.
“I'm something of a master of disguises,” Looker replied. “It comes in handy on the job. Now then, I couldn't help but overhear your conversation a moment ago. You seem interested in those orbs.”
“So what if we are,” Renamon said.
“The last time someone showed interest in those orbs, it nearly brought about a catastrophe,” Looker replied. “So, I'm curious, why would you want them?”
“That's our business,” Mewtwo replied, his tone cold.
“As an officer of the law, it's my business to know why you want those orbs,” Looker said, his tone even, despite Mewtwo's obvious hostility.
Renamon stepped forward. “We have no intention of misusing them,” she said. “Quite the opposite in fact. We need them to help save the world.”
Looker stared at her for a moment. “Please, explain.”
The Digital World...
IceLeopardmon was in the midst of preparing the portal program for another run when Emperor Leomon entered his lab.
“My liege,” IceLeopardmon greeted him, bowing. “How may I be of service?”
“I may have found a solution to our problem,” Emperor Leomon replied, holding up the book. He set it on the desk and opened it to the section that discussed Palkia and Dialga. “These two are the ones who will be our key to conquering the human realm.”
IceLeopardmon stared at the images of the two Dragons. “I'm not sure I understand, sire.”
“This book says that these two dragons control time and space,” Emperor Leomon explained. “Imagine if we had that power at our command. We could maintain an open gateway between the Digital World and the Human World.”
“And it would be large enough to move all our forces through,” IceLeopardmon said. “But how would we manage this, sire? I highly doubt these two will lend their power to us. Moreover, how would we even control them?”
“There is a way,” Emperor Leomon said. “Look. There are two orbs of power that have a connection to these two Dragons. If we were to obtain these orbs, would it be possible to use them in some way to control them?”
IceLeopardmon thought on the question. “Hm. It could be possible. If these orbs do indeed have a connection to these Dragons, then there may be a way to utilize the energy to control them. I would have to see these orbs and study them to know for certain.”
“And you shall have them,” Emperor Leomon said. “According to this, the orbs are in a place known as Eterna City in the Human World. I will dispatch someone to go and retrieve them. Prepare the portal for departure.”
“Yes, my liege,” IceLeopardmon replied.
A few moments later, BlackTigramon entered the throne room. She stopped before her master and bowed to him.
“You summoned me, sire,” she said.
“I have a mission for you,” Emperor Leomon replied. “I'm sending you to the Human World to retrieve two items of great importance.” He handed her the page containing information on the two orbs. “Find these orbs and bring them back here.”
BlackTigramon stared at the picture for a moment and then stuffed it into a pouch on her belt.
“It shall be done, my lord,” she said. “What if I should meet with resistance of any kind? How shall I proceed?”
“Do as you see fit,” Emperor Leomon said. “So long as you get those orbs. Oh, and one other thing. I will be sending our newest recruit with you.”
BlackTigramon looked up in surprise. “Is he ready for this so soon?”
“I have confidence he will do just fine,” Emperor Leomon assured her, a slight smile on his face.
“Very well then,” BlackTigramon replied. “I will depart at once.”
“Do not fail me, BlackTigramon,” Emperor Leomon growled.
Eterna City...
Renamon finished explaining to Looker about the impending invasion of Emperor Leomon and the need to call upon Palkia and Dialga to help them. Looker remained silent, pondering over what he had heard.
“I never would have imagined another world existed,” Looker said, breaking the silence. “And that there was an army set to invade.”
“Now you see why we need to retrieve the orbs,” Mewtwo said. “I don't know for certain if Palkia and Dialga will help us, but if they hear of an invasion they may be more inclined to lend a hand.”
“Unfortunately, we don't know who took the orbs to begin with,” Gatomon said.
“As it so happens, I have my suspicions,” Looker replied. “Like you, I believe there are remaining factions of Team Galactic that are still out there, planning to continue Cyrus' work.”
“Cyrus,” Renamon asked.
“He was the leader of Team Galactic,” Mewtwo said.
Looker nodded. “After he disappeared, we rounded up his followers. Well, as many as we could. However, there was one character in particular that we didn't apprehend. His name was Charon, a commander and lead scientist of Team Galactic. It was his research that allowed Cyrus to gain control of Palkia and Dialga. He disappeared after that whole incident and we've been searching for him ever since. I wouldn't be surprised if he was behind this.”
“That's not much to go on,” Renamon said. “Do we even know where this Charon is hiding?”
“Not at the moment,” Looker said. “However, I have been tracking someone who I believe to be involved. This suspect of mine was spotted around here just prior to the museum theft. What's more, he left town right after the break-in.”
“Then why aren't you going after him,” Gatomon asked.
“Relax, I know where he's heading,” Looker said. “He's going to Veilstone City. And it's that location which confirms my suspicions about Team Galactic being involved.”
“Why's that,” Gatomon asked.
“Because that is where Team Galactic's old hideout is,” Looker replied.
“Wouldn't it be unwise to return to a previous hideout,” Renamon said.
“Normally, yes,” Looker said. “But, at the moment, it's the best lead I have. Now, since we have a common goal, I suggest we join forces. Help me find and arrest Charon and his henchmen, and I'll help you get the orbs back. After you use them, I will return them to the museum. What do you say?”
Mewtwo glanced at his two Digimon companions. “What do you think?”
Renamon shrugged. “If he can help us get the orbs, then I say why not?
“I'm with Renamon,” Gatomon said.
Mewtwo turned back to Looker. “Very well, Looker. It's a deal.”
Looker nodded. “Thank you. Now we'd better get a move on. Our suspect has a head-start.”
Mewtwo smiled. “I think we can make up for lost time.”
A few moments later, all four were airborne and making their way towards Veilstone City.
Shortly after the group had departed, a portal opened up just right on the edge of town. BlackTigramon emerged, followed by a group of Feralmon. Her golden eyes took in the area, noting the humans and the creatures called Pokemon.
“So, this is the Human World,” she commented.
From the portal, another figure emerged and stood behind her, taking in his surroundings. It was Leomon. The lion Digimon towered over the Feralmon, who backed away from him, despite the fact he was now on their side.
“Alright, lets go get those orbs,” BlackTigramon said.
They entered the town and made their way towards the museum. Immediately, the townsfolk noticed them. Some backed away in fear at the sight of the fierce feline Digimon. Others, such as bold trainers, came forward, intent on battling and capturing what they thought were Pokemon. BlackTigramon halted her troops as several trainers surrounded them.
“Stand aside,” she addressed the trainers. “Or perish.”
The trainers didn't listen. Instead, they called out their strongest Pokemon, ready to battle. BlackTigramon sighed. So they would have to do this the hard way. She drew her battle blade and swung it in a vicious arc.
“SHATTER FANG,” she shouted.
The ground cracked and erupted, causing a massive tremor as energy tore from the blade and scattered the trainers and their Pokemon. With the way now clear, they continued onwards. Soon they reached the museum and entered. BlackTigramon seized a security guard, bringing him just inches from her face.
“I'm here for the Adamant and Lustrous Orbs,” she said. “Where are they?”
“Th-They're not here,” the guard stammered. “They were s-stolen.”
“What,” BlackTigramon exclaimed. “Who stole them? Where did they go?”
“I don't know,” the guard said.
BlackTigramon tossed the guard aside, sending him crashing into a display case.
“Of all the bad luck,” she snarled. She pulled out a communicator and called IceLeopardmon. “We have a problem. The orbs have been stolen and no one knows who did it and where they have gone.”
“Stand by,” IceLeopardmon said. “I'm sending Lynxmon. She'll be able to get some answers.”
A moment passed and then a portal opened before them. Lynxmon stepped out and joined her cohorts.
“So, somebody beat us to the punch, huh,” she said. “Well, don't worry, we'll fix that.”
Lynxmon approached the display case where the orbs had been on display. Drawing her staff, she closed her eyes and concentrated, using her magic. A circle of light appeared on the floor and then a beam of light shot off from the circle, passing through the museum.
“There's our trail,” Lynxmon said. “All we have to do is follow it.”
BlackTigramon nodded. “Thank you, Lynxmon. Alright, let's move out!”
They turned and exited the museum, only to find the police waiting for them.
“They just never learn,” BlackTigramon said.
“Allow me to deal with them,” Leomon spoke up.
He stepped forward. Immediately the cops brought their guns up and pointed right at him.
“Stay where you are,” Officer Jenny yelled over the megaphone. “All of you put your weapons on the ground and then put your hands in the air! You're all under arrest!”
Leomon raised a massive fist which began glowing. He pulled it back and then thrust it towards the assembled cops.
“FIST OF THE BEAST KING,” he roared.
A massive blast of energy surged from his fist and struck, sending the police and Officer Jenny flying in all directions. With the police down for the count, they followed the glowing line of light that would lead them to the orbs.
Elsewhere, miles from Eterna City, Mewtwo, Renamon, Gatomon and Looker were flying towards Veilstone City, unaware of what was transpiring back the way they had come. As they flew along, Renamon glanced down and suddenly noticed something.
“What's that? Look, down there!”
Mewtwo looked down and saw what Renamon had seen: A line of glowing light.
“What is that,” he said.
They flew down and landed on the ground. Cautiously, they approached the glowing line.
“That's weird,” Gatomon said. “What is this thing? And where did it come from?”
Mewtwo glanced back in the direction they had come from then followed the line's current trajectory. It was going in the same direction they had been going. He had not noticed it when they had left Eterna City.
“I wonder...Maybe we should trace this line back the way we came from,” he said.
“I'm afraid that's out of the question,” Looker said. “We need to get to Veilstone City and track down our suspect. Otherwise we'll lose any chance of finding the orbs.”
Mewtwo gazed down at the glowing line. Looker had a point. They had to find those orbs if they were going to have any chance of stopping Emperor Leomon's invasion. Still, something about this light gave him an uneasy feeling. He glanced at Renamon and could tell she wanted to find out about it just as much as he wanted to.
“As much as I want to figure this out,” Renamon spoke up, “I think we should press on to Veilstone City. We need to find those orbs and stop the invasion.”
Mewtwo nodded. “Alright. We'll keep going. But I think we should be on guard. I have a sneaking suspicion this light may be connected to our enemies.”
“Well, if it is,” Gatomon said, “Then we're bound to meet up with them, considering it's going the same way we are.”
Mewtwo enveloped everyone in a psychic field and they floated back up into the air, resuming their flight towards Veilstone City. As they flew, both Mewtwo and Renamon watched the line below them, occasionally glancing at each other, both concerned about what lay ahead of them.
