Recruitment Drive 7

Overlooking the data you were compiling from the source themselves of light and Hope, you hummed in thought. They were powerful, for sure, but, what you could really do with them, was limited.

It would be childs play to recreate the digivolution items before you using them. But really, that was so small time. the next option, was to use them as an enhancement battery. You could enhance the abilities of say, of processing speeds and such using them as amplification, or even outright feed the stream of powerful data from them right into your partner's digi-egg.

But, the power of Light and Hope seemed to be geared towards specific digimon. And you didn't want to limit your partners like that. For instance, what if, using them, forced your partners into holy digimon lines like they did for that Gatomon and Angemon. Would they say, even be compatible with the Viral Factor?

A crazy idea swam through your mind and a smirk spread across your face. It was foolish, but foolishness tended to be the beginning of innovation.

'If I can't find much good uses for them alone, what if I fuse them together?' you wondered.

You weren't sure what you would get from it. But, you copied the basic shape and data configuration of the hope and Light digivolution items. The only thing you did not copy, was the specific species data. You created a receptacle capable of holding both of the powers, or at least, the framework that would become one.

And then, it was child's play again, to funnel both conceptual data powers into the framework and begin its foundation.

You directed the frame into the storage area of your digivice. From the looks of things, the finished project, would take quite a while.

So with that accomplished, you left the cave behind, not even glancing over your shoulder as you left at the digivolution items of Light and Hope.

You got back on Airdramon's back, and had him take you right to Santa Korea, home of the Vegimon.

It wasn't a long trip at all with Airdramon's flight speed, and the dark tower was quite a bit out of the sloping hill of a village, and there weren't many guarding the area around it.

There was one Red Vegimon, an interesting variation species of Vegimon you hadn't seen before. A natural pseudo evolution of the species, like Dark Tyrannomon was to Tyrannomon.

But, even with being quite a bit stronger than the standard Vegimon, it was beaten down quickly by Airdramon, and the ring around its body destroyed. It was quick to apologise profusely for its actions while controlled, and recruiting it was easy as pie. From there, you simply did as you had to the towers before, transferring the data that made it up into your partner's digi-egg, and the territory was freed from the rule of the Digimon Emperor.

Red Vegimon wasn't long in persuading its fellows to come along with it, becoming your subordinate and enjoying the safety of your protection.

Surprisingly, there were five extra digimon amongst the bunch eager to join up with you for your protection. Another species you had never seen before. Gazimon, bipedal rabbit like digimon, rookie-level digimon, that you were quite fascinated by, due to the apparent potential they had for many, many different champion forms.

You happily allowed them to join you as well. You'd like to take a look at their species data, they might be a good rookie form to take your partners in when they hatched, just for the potential branching paths.

Really, the only problem was that you didn't have any digimon subordinates currently that were good with infrastructure. Every subordinate you had was talented in their own way, but there were not any that were well learned in the art of leading business and growing community needed groups and organizations.

'I miss Jijimon.' you sighed wistfully as you flew back towards your base on Airdramon's back not long later, after taking the Vegimon and Gazimon into your digivice.

Jijimon was amazing at finding the right digimon for the right job, and he made your job as king infinitely easier.

Well, at least the Vegimon didn't really need much direction at all to just start growing food. And the Gazimon could work as runners when things got up and going.

You looked down from your place on Airdramon's back, flying over a forest. And just then, a glint of gold in the moonlight caught your eye.

You directed Airdramon down to land beside it, and hopped off of his back. 'Well now, what's this?' you peered at the item in interest.

it was a large golden ring. Engraved with runes of the High Coding language.

Gabumon, from his position hiding within the trees of a towering tree wiped sweat from underneath his fur, "Oof, good thing that guy didn't spot me," the wolf furred digimon collapsed on his backside, "What a crazy guy."

The human teenager who had just liberated the entire Vegimon village, and then recruited them and somehow stored them inside that odd device, flew off on the back of an Airdramon above.

"I need to hurry and tell Matt and the others." Gabumon nodded to himself. He hadn't had the chance to speak to Matt despite the fact he was in the digital world today. He was off, with the others, helping Agumon and Tai, while Gabumon had been planning on how to break out his Gazimon buddies from the Vegimon's prison and save all the VEgimon while he was at it.

This was a village he frequented quite often, so when he saw one of the Control Spires up and constructed, and all the familiar friendly Vegimon he new enslaved, he knew he had to save them somehow from that nasty Digimon Emperor.

'But who was that guy?' Gabumon wondered, he clearly wasn't the Digimon Emperor, he looked entirely different, and there was no way the Digimon Emperor would liberate his own slaves from himself.
