User blog:Mgoff92/Chapter 7: Ikkakumon's Harpoon Torpedo

[Open to all the KIDS and DIGIMON walking through the forest. it’s very cold, and some of them are shivering.]

Gomamon: I know this is no day at the beach, Michael, but that’s no reason to be a worry wart about it, and make all your friends unhappy. Pardon the pun, but chill out. Only you’ve got a problem with the cold. Everyone think warm.

Michael: I’m allergic to fur.

Joe: Oh, come on. The cold isn’t that bad.

Rylan & Alyssa: [gasp]

Ben: Perhaps not if you’re a polar bear or a penguin.

Joe: Yeah, but if it shows, we’ll throw some snowballs!

Afton: And make snowmen!

Gomamon: Who do you think Snowmon is?

Gabumon: A Digimon from their planet?

Ben: It’s difficult to explain.

Tentomon: Well, if it’s edible, count me in.

Alyssa: No, the best thing about show balls is that you can throw them at each other. It’s a fun game that we play in the winter months.

Gatomon: You throw food?

Jaren: We could build a snow fort!

Joe: You’ll need one!

Amree: I bet I could beat you both, blindfolded!

Rylan: I wanna build an igloo!

Palmon: I’ll help! If you tell me what it is.

Tentomon: An igloo sounds scrumptious!

Ben: Too bad they’re not edible.

Michael: You can’t be serious. It’d be horrible if it started snowing right now.

Amree: Lighten up, Michael. We’re just trying to look on the positive side of things.

Michael: [gags]

Rylan: Hey, Joe, when’s it gonna snow?

Joe: Probably any second now.

Jaren: Right on Michael’s head!

Rylan: That’d be so funny!

Joe: I can’t wait to see his face!

Michael: You know, if the temperature drops any lower than it already is, we won’t be able to camp out anymore! We’ll be frozen Digi-treats!

Joe, Jaren, Ben, Alyssa, and Rylan: [laugh]

Michael: Right. Go ahead and laugh. But when your tootsies freeze don’t come crying to me. I’ll just say I told you so. It’s always better to be safe than sorry. Think first. Humph.

[Scene change to a field of snow]

Gomamon: What’s the white stuff?

Afton: It’s a field of snow! There’s bound to be a ski resort nearby!

Michael: Oh, man. This is much worse than even I thought it was!

Alyssa: What now, guys?

Joe: I think we should keep going. We won’t get anywhere just sitting here.

Jaren: But if we cross the field in our sneakers our toes will go numb.

Michael: It’s impossible to continue!

Joe: So what are we supposed to do? Just stand around like a bunch of dorks? We eight cross that field or go up that big mountain.

Gatomon: Wait a sec. I think there’s a weird odor in the air.

Biyomon: I do believe she’s right.

Gabumon: But what could it be?

Joe: I don’t know. But it smells like…

Ben: Very familiar…

Biyomon: It’s steam!

Jaren: She’s right. But where’s it coming from?

Michael: A big geyser!

Alyssa, Afton, and Rylan: Wow! A hot springs!

Afton: Yipee! We can take a bath! Finally, now I can get warm!

All: Yeah! Woohoo!

[They all go and check out the hot springs.]

Joe: Uh, oh. This water is way too hot.

Tentomon: We’d be cooked if we jumped in this.

Ben: Yes, boiled.

Afton: Well, there go my big dreams of a nice warm bath.

Palmon: It looks so inviting.

Jaren: Maybe if you’re a vegetable.

Michael: What’s a little dirt compared to starving? We need to eat and there’s nothing in sight!

Rylan: Oh, yes there is!

Michael: What are you talking about? There’s nothing here but a bunch of rocks and hot water!

Rylan: Look!

Michael: Tell me I’m not imagining this.

Joe: Yeah! It’s real!

Michael: Oh, come on, that’s ridiculous! What would a refrigerator be doing all the way out here?

Jaren: Hey, where there’s a fridge, there’s grub!

Amree: Well, we won’t know till we open it.

Alyssa: I want hot cocoa!

Gatomon: What’s that?

Joe: Come on already, let’s open it! [JOE opens the fridge] Huh? Eggs!

Agumon: There must be a zillion of em!

Joe: Grub on! These’ll keep us all fed for a month!

Michael: Wait! Don’t touch those! We don’t know if they’re fit for human consumption!

Joe: Then I’ll be the guinea pig! If I turn purple you’ll know they’re not edible.

Michael: There’s more to it than that! Even if they were edible they don’t belong to us! That’d make us all thieves! You gotta think of stuff like that!

Jaren: Unless you’re in to eating rocks, we don’t have much of a choice.

Amree: I’m sure they’d say yes if they knew our position.

Ben: Right. We’d just tell them it’s an emergency situation.

Michael: Hmmm.

[The KIDS start to cook the eggs]

Amree: Sunny-side up eggs are my specialty!

[RYLAN and PATAMON are boiling eggs in the water]

Patamon: There! Done!

Joe: Hey, come on man, how are those chopsticks coming?

Afton: Hurry, we want to eat!

Michael: Sorry, this just makes me feel uncomfortable. We’d be in big trouble if someone got sick. No doctors, you know. Why do I always have to be the one to think of these things?

[They all sit down to eat the eggs]

Afton: Très gourmet!

Amree: It’s your turn, next time.

Biyomon: Go on, dig in!

Joe: Oh, yeah! I haven’t had food like this in a long time! My stomach’s chiming!

Jaren: If we had some ketchup to go with this it’d be perfect!

Rylan: Mmm…I love ketchup and eggs!

Amree: Sounds pretty gross, to me.

Gomamon: What’s the matter, Michael? You haven’t eaten anything!

Michael: I was just thinking that if we were able to get back home, ketchup wouldn’t be a problem.

Afton: Oh, now I’m homesick. How depressing.

Rylan: Now I want to go home, too.

Alyssa: Me too.

Ben: It’s been four days since we’ve been here. I wonder if anyone’s tried to find out where we are.

Amree: Cheer up! Just tell me how you like your eggs and I’ll try my very best!

Joe: I like mine with soy sauce.

Jaren: How about salsa?

Amree: How about a reality check?

Ben: I’ll have mine with mustard and jelly beans, please.

Joe: [laugh]

Jaren: How gross!

Rylan: Mmmm…jelly beans, that sounds good!

Afton: What? You’re both weird. My favorite is eggs topped with maple syrup. Yummy! Sometimes I like them with cherries on top!

Amree: That’s weird.

Rylan: But I bet it’s good.

Jaren and Joe: [laugh]

Michael: What? You’re making me lose my appetite! I just like plain eggs! Ugh, I wish we could talk about something other than egg recipes.

Gomamon: Don’t be so hard on yourself; they’re just having a little fun.

Jaren: Yeah, join the party!

Joe: I think it’s really too late for him. I think Michael thinks we’ve gone a little crazy.

Michael: Well, I mean really. Jelly beans and cherries on eggs? That’s crazy talk. Salt and pepper’s all they need. Keep it simple! That’s always been my motto.

Gomamon: I’m afraid Michael’s just not the kind of guy that’s meant to be adaptable.

Michael: Just what do you mean?

Gomamon: Face it Michael, you’re kinda of a stick in the mud, if you get my drift.

Michael: I’m just practical!

Gomamon: You’re stuffy!

Biyomon: It never stops. Here we go again.

Michael: Someone has to have a head on his shoulders.

Gomamon: You wanna fight? Huh? Huh?

Michael: Yeah, sure!

Jaren: Hey! Hey! Stay calm!

Michael: I am calm! He’s the one who’s dingy. And why’d you squeeze my arm?

Jaren: You don’t seem like yourself today, Michael. You’re a basket case.

Michael: I am just trying to be careful, unlike the rest of you weirdos. You’re just asking for trouble.

[Switch to MICHAEL sitting in front of the geyser, throwing rocks into it.]

Michael: [sigh] I’ve got to be the cautious one around here. I have to be…the voice of reason.

[Switch to JAREN and JOE fighting at the base of the mountain]

Joe: Why are you making such a big deal out of this?

Jaren: Because it’s way too dangerous!

Joe: There’s no place else to go! We have no choice!

Jaren: Look, before we do something foolish, we should think it over a little!

Joe: You’re just a big old chicken Jaren!

Jaren: I am not!

Joe: You are too!

Jaren: I am not!

Michael: Hey, everybody, what’s all the ruckus about? Why are Jaren and Joe fighting?

Ben: They’re debating about whether or not we should climb up Infinity Mountain, which is way up over there.

Michael: That’s practically up to the sky!

Joe: It’s the perfect spot! We’ve got to climb up there. It’s the best view of the island!

Michael: He’s got a point there.

Amree: That’s not the way Jaren sees it.

Jaren: Nobody would make it up that peak! It’s too much of a gamble!

Biyomon: He might be right, Michael. There might be lots of evil Digimon up that peak.

Michael: That’s not good. It wouldn’t be worth the risk.

Joe: Come on, Jaren! Don’t be a wimp! We won’t get anywhere if we just stand around talking!

Jaren: Put your fists down when you talk to me! And stop acting like you can just bully your way into being leader!

Joe: What do you mean?!

Michael: Come on, you guys! Chill out. Now look, calm down. Let’s think this over.

Jaren: So, what’s your opinion about this, Michael?

Michael: Huh?

Joe: Yeah, who’s right? Me or Jaren?

Michael: Well, uh…Joe is right about going up that peak. We could see the landscape of the island much better.

Joe: See, Jaren?

Michael: Hold on. Jaren brought up a good point too. He’s right about the danger. It’d be dumb to lead everyone up to a place we don’t know anything about.

Joe: Hmmm…

Michael: Hmmm…

Jaren: Hmmm…

Joe: Oh, come on! Let’s just go as far as we can up the mountain!

Jaren: That’s stupid! We can’t protect ourselves up there!

Michael: Stop! You’re both making me a nervous wreck! Just give me a chance to think. Don’t be difficult!

Jaren: What? You are the most difficult person I ever met, Michael!

Michael: Hey! In am trying to make a decision here! Don’t interrupt me!

Joe: You’re just a big old chicken, Jaren!

Jaren: Joe, you better take that back!

Michael: Enough already! You’re giving me a headache!

Amree: Put a cork in it, you three!

Joe, Jaren, Michael: Huh?

Amree: Now, grow up. We need to make a decision.

Biyomon: Plus, it’ll be dark soon.

Gatomon: I think we’d better get some shut eye.

Gabumon: There will be plenty of time to argue later.

Amree: First of all, we need to find a good place to sleep. Let’s head for the caves.

Agumon: Yeah, it’ll be warm in there!

Biyomon: I get the top rock!

[MICHAEL is sitting by himself in front of the boiling water]

Michael: [Thinking] Someone is gonna get hurt if I don’t do something fast. Instead I got involved myself. If I’m responsible for everyone’s safety, I’ve got to protect them. Their lives depend on me!

[Everyone is sleeping. MICHAEL wakes up, and walks out of the cave. He looks at the mountain]

Michael: I’ll do it!

[MICHAEL starts walking up the mountain by himself.]

Michael: I’ve always been good at climbing. I’ve got the best chance of making it to the top.

[GOMAMON joins MICHAEL.]

Gomamon: What are you up to, Michael? Huh? Michael, you’re not thinking of climbing that mountain all by yourself, are you?

Michael: Gomamon?

Gomamon: Yep. You forgot me already?

Michael: Why don’t you go get some sleep?

Gomamon: Not happening.

Michael: Yes, it is.

Gomamon: I don’t think so!

Michael: Humph. You’re not going, so quit following me around.

Gomamon: I’m not. You see, I’ve got some business to take care of up there. It doesn’t always have to revolve around you.

Michael: Fine then.

Gomamon: [To himself] Sometimes I just have to trick him.

Michael: Did you just say something?

Gomamon: Uh, yeah…nice night for a walk!

Michael: You’re nuts.

Gomamon: What’s wrong with that? I sure have more fun!

[MICHAEL and GOMAMON climb the mountain for a while. They stop as MICHAEL gasps for breath]

Michael: Infinity Mountain is sure bigger than I thought it was.

Gomamon: Are you ready to quit? We can turn around.

Michael: Never.

Gomamon: I can give you a hand.

Michael: Huh? Oh. What? You call that a hand?

Gomamon: Watch it!

Michael: I was kidding. Lighten up!

[GOMAMON stares at him]

Michael: What?

Gomamon: I think you may actually have a sense of humor.

Michael: Huh?

Gomamon: Maybe not.

[MICHAEL and GOMAMON climb up the mountain some more.]

Gomamon: I could use a hand!

Michael: Oh, here.

Gomamon: Thanks.

Michael: Whew. I’m about ready to take a rest. Well, it looks to me like we’re about halfway there.

Gomamon: We make quite a team!

Michael: Actually, we do.

[A rumbling comes from higher up the mountain.]

Michael: What was that? You don’t think this mountain could be a…volcano?!

[Some Black Gears come flying out of the mountain.]

Michael: Look up there!

Gomamon: The black gears.

Michael: They’re coming from the top of the mountain! I guess there’s no running away this time.

Gomamon: Mmm-hmm.

[MICHAEL and GOMAMON climb up to where they saw the Gears come from]

Michael: I know I saw them here. Where did they go?

Gomamon: Would it be too much to hope they disappeared altogether?

Michael: I’m gonna go up there and see.

Gomamon: Huh?

Michael: What?

Gomamon: That sound. Up there!

[MICHAEL looks up. UNIMON, a white flying horse, wearing a red mask, comes down to the mountain]

Michael: Oh, that’s just a great. A flying horse wearing a mask. This can’t be good.

Gomamon: That’s no ordinary flying horse, Michael. That’s Unimon. He’s a wise old Digimon. I never knew he lived in these mountains. He’s not much of a talker.

Michael: Hide!

Gomamon: Unimon’s very gentle. We don’t have to hide from him.

Michael: Your information hasn’t always been reliable.

Gomamon: Cold, but true.

Michael: He must be coming down to have a drink. This must be his watering hole.

Gomamon: You see? I told you he was a nice Digimon. He wouldn’t hurt a fly.

Michael: Wow, what a beautiful looking horse!

Gomamon: Maybe Unimon can tell us what we need to know. Then we can go back to our friends.

[GOMAMON walks over to UNIMON.]

Michael: Gomamon!

Gomamon: Hello, Unimon! It’s me Gomamon. It’s been a long time since we…what’s going on?

[UNIMON and GOMAMON look towards the sky to listen.]

Michael: What is it?

Gomamon: I hear something, out there!

Michael: Huh? Where?

Gomamon: There! Can’t you hear it, Michael?

Michael: Oh, no! A Black Gear!

[The Gear flies down and hits UNIMON in the back]

Gomamon: Woah!

Michael: Gosh, you think he’s in trouble?

Gomamon: Uh, we’ll have to wait and see. Woah, look at his eyes! I think we’re the ones that are in trouble!

Unimon: Hello, Gomamon! Aren’t you happy to see me?

[Scene change to the cave. AMREE is the first to wake up.]

Amree: Mmm…I sure slept well! Hey, I wonder where sleepy Michael is. Michael, where’d ya go? Huh. [Reads message written in the dirt] “I’ll be back in a little while. Please wait for me. Signed, Michael.” He wouldn’t be climbing that mountain by himself, would he? Quick, everybody wake up! We have an emergency!

[Back at the mountain]

Unimon: Having a good time, dear guests? I’m in the mood for a game of Aerial Attack.

[UNIMON throws his attack]

Michael: Do something, Gomamon!

Gomamon: What?

Unimon: You’re not thinking of leaving, are you? It’s a perfectly safe route if you’re planning on flying away.

Michael: We need some help!

Unimon: Aerial Attack!

[BIRDRAMON flies up and smashes UNIMON into the side of the mountain, swerving his attack]

Michael: Huh? Birdramon?

Joe: We’ve come to save you!

Michael: Just in time, I’d say!

Amree: Are you alright?

Unimon: Aerial Attack!

[It hits BIRDRAMON, and she falls down the cliff]

Amree: Birdramon!

Joe [looking at AGUMON]: Well?

Agumon: Agumon, Digivolve to…

Greymon: Greymon!

[UNIMON smashes GREYMON into the mountain]

Joe: Greymon, are you gonna be alright?

Greymon: I’ll be fine, Joe.

[UNIMON fights with GREYMON]

Greymon: Nova Blast!

Michael: Greymon and Joe are in trouble! Oh, no! He’s going after Amree!

Unimon: What do we have here? Another uninvited guest?

Birdramon: Meteor Wing!

Amree: Oh!

[AMREE’s knocked down the cliff with BIRDRAMON]

Michael: Amree!

[MICHAEL looks at the Gear on UNIMON.]

Michael: The Gear! I’ll get it!

Gomamon: Huh?

Michael: This is crazy!

[MICHAEL leaps onto UNIMON’s back.]

Gomamon: Michael!

Michael: Come on, now!

Gomamon: Hang on!

Michael: Oh, no! It won’t budge!

[UNIMON squirms as MICHAEL pulls on the Gear.]

Michael: Ahh!!

Gomamon: Michael! Stop! Don’t try to be a hero!

Michael: I know! But there’s just this one thing I have to do. I’m not going to stop until it’s done.

Gomamon: Ahhhh!!

[UNIMON kicks around]

Michael: I have to think positive! I’m responsible! I’ve got to do it!

[MICHAEL is thrown off by UNIMON.]

Michael: Ahhhh!!!

Gomamon: Oh no!!

Michael: Ahhh!!!

Gomamon: Michael!!!

[GOMAMON starts to Digivolve for the first time.]

Gomamon: Gomamon, Digivolve to…

Ikkakumon: Ikkakumon!

Michael: Ahh!!!

[MICHAEL lands on IKKAKUMON.]

Ikkakumon: Hang on, Michael! Cause we’re going for a ride!

Unimon: Aerial Attack!

[IKKAKUMON dodges it.]

Ikkakumon: Harpoon Torpedo!

[UNIMON dodges the attack.]

Michael: You missed him! He’s much too fast for us!

[IKKAKUMON shoots again, and gets UNIMON. The Black Gear comes out, and deletes.]

Michael: The Black Gear just dissolved! Yeah, you did it!

Greymon: Hope I didn’t shake you too much, Joe!

Joe: Nah!

Amree: That was a close call!

Michael: Good Job! That’s what I call pulling it together!

Joe: Wow, Michael, you were jamming out there! You’re a pretty cool dude, after all.

Amree: You were so awesome. You made it possible for Gomamon to Digivolve!

Gomamon: That’s not why I did it! It cause I’m just a nice guy. Plus, Michael would’ve fallen on his head. That’s why! I didn’t have anything better to do anyway. If you don’t believe me, put up your dukes, and we’ll fight about it!

Michael: Chill, Gomamon! And heroes don’t have to fight!

Gomamon: Oh, uh…heroes?

[GOMAMON blushes.]

Biyomon: Uh, oh! Gomamon’s embarrassed!

Gomamon: I’m no such thing!

Joe: Come on, everybody! We’re almost there! Let’s go all the way to the top!

[They climb to the top of the mountain.]

Joe: Alright! I knew we could do it!

All: Yay!

Joe: Woah, not much out there.

Michael: So, Gomamon and I fought to the top. When we got there, we found…well, nothing. But I think we discovered quite a bit on the way up.
