Digimon Xros Wars - Chapter 05

The fifth chapter of Digimon Xros Wars

Characters
=Summary= Dorulumon is walking through the forest, having just left Xros Heart. He thinks that his back feels a little empty now, without Cutemon. Suddenly, an explosion goes off back at where Xros Heart is, and he thinks that someone must have found them. As soon as this happens, he sees Akari and Cutemon, who came to get his help.

Back with Xros Heart, Shoutmon X2 is fighting Kiriha's Greymon. Taiki and a group of his Digimon are running from Mail Birdramon. Taiki apologizes for taking a gamble, but he says he's sure Dorulumon will come back because of his warrior pride.

Cutemon says he came to apologize to Dorulumon, who is frustrated with his soft-heartedness, and reminds Cutemon he could have been the one who destroyed Cutemon's village. Akari points out Dorulumon has reflected on his actions, and taken care of Cutemon. Dorulumon thinks this is not enough to make up for everything he's done, and some things are to big to be forgiven. He resolves not to come and fight. Then a troop of Kiriha's Gaossmon led by a Baromon attacks them. Dorulumon tells Akari and Cutemon to get on so they can run away, but Cutemon refuses. He attacks a Gaossmon to encourage Dorulumon to fight, but as he is not at all an offensive Digimon, he is knocked aside and injured. Dorulumon asks why he would do that, and Cutemon says that Dorulumon is like his family now, after all their travels. As Baromon begins to attack again, Dorulumon uses his to fight back.

Where everyone else is fighting, they see the tornado spiraling into the sky. Dorulumon arrives and Taiki Xroses him with Ballistamon, then Shoutmon with the Starmons to make Ballistamon SR and Shoutmon SH. They engage Greymon and Mail Birdramon while Zenjirou, holding the Chibick Sword, fights Kiriha. He knocks the Xros Loader out of Kiriha's hand, and then Taiki opens the DigiXroses before combining his team to make Shoutmon X4. X4 fights Greymon, and overpowers him.

Kiriha orders his troops to retreat, much to Greymon's rage. He grabs Kiriha around the neck, and Kiriha, not seeming at all rattled, says Greymon can kill him if it makes him feel better, but without Kiriha, Greymon will end up dying in battle. Mail Birdramon points out that they chose Kiriha to be their general because he is this way, and Greymon lets him go. Kiriha demands his Xros Loader back from Taiki, who gives it to him. Kiriha then gives them the Snow Zone Code Crown, acknowledging that Taiki has fairly bested him there. Blue Flare makes their exit.

Tactimon arrives at the Bagura Army headquarters, and says that he has not yet defeated the Generals, as he is interested in the power of DigiXros. Dark Knightmon asks Nene what she thinks about the two Generals, and she says both their colors are too pure, and won't mix together. Dark Knightmon says it's a shame, and asks which one Nene will choose. Taiki wonders if there's any reason the humans were chosen to come to the Digital World. Ochi Musyamon asks to join their team, much to everyone's dismay. Tactimon speaks with Bagramon about possible removing the seal on his sword.
