The realization that Chrome would die hit him like a tonne of bricks. They might not have know each other for long, but they were true friends. "I refuse..." David grunted, getting back up in slow painful bursts. "Chrome is my friend. My partner. "As if I'd let you kill him!" David lunged at Troopmon.

Troopmon swatted David aside with a wide blow, knocking him back and to the ground. He turned to Chrome, clenching his fists as he watched the data the Kuramons and Tsumemons had yet to absorb enter into the young Digimon's body. David's D-Gaunt unlocked the [Digivolution] function.
"So, you, who were totally incapable of Digivolution just moments prior, have now reduced that hurdle to a mere, paltry task. You really are a genius, at least for a Digimon your age. Being capable of absorbing data instinctively...it's a rarity, to be sure," Troopmon said, brandishing his dual tasers and lunging forward in the hopes that he could deal a fatal blow to Kapurimon while he was in the middle of digivolving.

"As if I'd let you! Chrome! Digivolve!" David yelled, thrusting his hand towards his partner, and accelerated the process. in a bright flash of light, Chrome had Digivolved to Kotemon, only this was a strange Kotemon that Troopmon had never seen before. This Kotemon held a western training sword and shield. "Fire.... MEN!" Chrome roared hitting Troopmon with a flaming blade, then kicked at him in an effort to put some distance between the two.

Troopmon withstood the brunt of the initial attack due to his flexible armor, failing to hit Kotemon with his electrodes as a result of being knocked back by both blows.
"Yes, a true prodigy. I wonder...do you know what the source of your power is? Or, instead, do you remember?" Troopmon asked, taking a more defensive stance to be prepared for any follow-up attacks. "That said, you still aren't a match for me, not in your present state. Just think...if you had a little more time to adjust to this new power, you'd be able to hold your new form together properly and not be subject to a time limit or energy restraints as you are now. Even a genius like you can't keep a forced digivolution stable for long. The normal balance between maturity and energy has been upset, and your body won't be able to resist the unstable forces within your DigiCore without you trying to force it and killing yourself in the process."

"You think so, huh?" Chrome said, removing the electrodes from David's flesh. "As long as I'm with my partner, that's all the time I need."
"Chrome..." David said, slowly getting back up. "Sorry about that. but this guy's tougher than we thought."
"I'll say, and he seems to know something about me. So let's beat him up." Chrome lent David his sword and drew a second, shorter one. "Let's go!"
Chrome and David dashed forwards and encircled the Troopmon, maintaining a variable speed that wouldn't allow him to use his tasers. Then they pincer attacked.

Troopmon jumped up above both of his opponents, landing behind David and putting him into a chokehold.
"I take back what I said about you being a prodigy. It seems that you are merely a Digimon with some sort of hidden power, and an uncontrollable one at that. I'm going to take this human and be on my way, seeing as I've already spent more than enough time playing around with you," Troopmon said, motioning for the Tsumemon to swarm Chrome. "If you really care about your tamer and you want me to stick around for a bit longer and give you a shot at saving him, you'll show me this hidden power of yours. And when you do, I'll take every last drop of it."

David began to struggle. "David!" Chrome said.
Who was I..? Chrome thought. No. It's not about who I was. It's about who I am right now! I am Chrome, David's partner!
Chrome became wreathed in purple fire, a silhouette of a large digimon appearing. "BURNING HEAD!" Chrome roared, sending out a massive amount of heat that drove the Kuramon back. Chrome began taking steps towards Troopmon, the silhouette mimicking his movements. the closer Chrome got, the more the silhouette gained clarity. David threw his loaned sword to Chrome, and Chrome dashed towards Troopmon and began stabbing at Troopmon, barely missing David in the process. (Not entirely sure if I should stick with this.)

The swords became lodged in Troopmon's body, causing him to let go of David from the sheer pain. "Ah, so that's what it is..." Troopmon mumbled, coughing before reaching into Chrome's body and taking hold of his DigiCore before the furious Digimon could react. "This...this thing I'm doing now...this is my hidden power."
In an instant, Chrome felt something leave his body as Troopmon pulled back. The two of them collapsed simultaneously and Chrome reverted to MetalKoromon, losing consciousness.
"Now...now you'll have to find your own power to fight with..." Troopmon mumbled, letting a golden sphere of data escape his hand and dart off to the East before anyone could try and stop it. "Sorry for doing that, and thank you for freeing me from this hell. Before I die, you should probably know...Troopmons don't have knuckles."
With that, Troopmon died. Strangely enough, he didn't regress to data or to a Digi-Egg. The Kuramons and Tsumemons began closing in, no longer having anyone there to control them.

"Shoot..." David said, grabbing hold of Chrome. "There's always a way out." David began to bounce on the ground, and with enough force, leapt onto the lowest cloth box buildings. "Time to run." David said to himself. That Troopmon... What was with him? Those last words... David ran along the buildings, and leapt down, using the unusual terrain to make quick movements.

Out of the corner of his eye, David saw a bright flash of light. The orbs Troopmon had placed around his residence let out intense light before disappearing, regressing Troopmon's body, the Tsumemon, and the Kuramon into an enormous cloud of data. Any survivors of the attack were spared, including David, Chrome, and the residents of Primary Village.

David let out a sigh of relief. "Glad we managed to get out of there..." David said, leaping down from one of the blocks. Several Swanmon came up to make sure he was alright. "Please, see to Chrome." David asked, concerned from his friend.
"We'll put him in one of the healing rooms, he should be able to wake up by morning." One of the Swanmon said. "In the meantime, we'll get you patched up, you took quite a beating, and you're leaking some red stuff onto your shirt."
David looked down and saw quite a bit of blood soaked into his shirt. "Wah. That's quite the amount of blood." He commented, before feeling the pain flare up. "I think the patch up would be nice." David groaned.
Half an hour later, David was in a bed next to a pod containing Chrome. There's too many things that don't add up. The Troopmon's message, that ball of light coming from Chrome's body... and this Digivice... David looked at his Digivice clad hand, and clenched it. We have to get stronger. For Leomon's sake...
David then went to sleep, and thought no more.
