**X-mon Part 4: Apoclyamon's Return** by Artemi§blink
They were all there in the Digi World. Tai, Kari, TK, Matt, Sora, Mimi, who came all the way from America through the gate, Izzy, Yolei, Davis, and even the non-mutants, Cody and Joe. Plus, the digimon were there.
Mimi's power was predicting the future through dreams. She could also walk through walls.
Cody was training Tai. He would throw plates at Tai and Tai would have to shoot them as fast as he could. Cody threw them harder and faster. Tai only missed one. It hit him in the knee.
"Ow!"
"You ok, Tai?" Cody asked.
"Fine. Fine. Just throw softer please."
All of a sudden the clouds became darker. Soon they were black and lightning covered the sky. The ground began to shake violently.
"Yolei, stop trying to freak us out!" Tai yelled.
"It's not me!" Yolei yelled from the sky.
"Haha, fools! Do you think a puny mutant girl could do that?" a booming voice demanded.
"Why does that sound familiar?" Kari asked.
Matt sniffed the air. "It's him. He's back."
"Who?" Hawkmon and Agumon said at the same time.
"Apaclyamon," Matt grunted.
"Who's that?" Davis asked.
"An evil digimon we fought seven years ago," Mimi said. "He's a mutant digimon."
"He's composed entirely of extinct digimon," Izzy added.
"He also destroyed our crests and tags and temporarally stole our mutant powers," Matt said.
"And I can do it again!" Apaclyamon yelled. "Death Claw!"
Nine claws outstretched from his cube-puzzle like body. They grabbed the mutant kids and started to drain their power slowly. Tai felt as if his eyes were being sucked out of their sockets. Sora felt unbelieveable pain in her head as her power being stolen. It was the last battle all over again. Kari felt her strength leave her. Yolei fell from the sky because she could not fly anymore.
"With these powers, I consume this world into darkness all over again!" Apaclyamon roared with laughter. "You Digidestined are powerless now! Your digimon cannot defeat me again!"
He let them all go. They were powerless. Apaclyamon disappeard. They got up off the ground.
"Our powers!" Tai said taking off his goggles revieling normal eyes. "That asshole stole our powers!"
"This is worse than before," TK said.
"Our powers came back eventually," Sora said rubbing her head. "But I have a feeling they're not now."
"You can't give up hope!" Cody yelled. "TK, you're the carrier of Hope! You have to keep the others on the bright side!"
"What bright side?" TK demanded. "There is no bright side! He completely took our powers! Our digimon are completely powerless too!"
"There has to be a way," Patamon said to TK.
TK reached into his jacket and pulled out a card. He tried so hard to power it up. Nothing. Matt didn't extend his claws because he didn't have his healing powers. Davis took out his D3 and examined it. There had to be a way. Patamon and Cody were right. They were the Digidestined. They always found a way for something.
They all headed back home. Not to attract attention from his dad, Tai kept the goggles on. He didn't want his father to become suspicious that his son all of a sudden stopped wearing the goggles. Kari felt so weak. She wished she could fly and have her strength back.
"Hey, kids," thier mom said when they walked in. "Dinner's almost ready."
"I'll be in my room," they said at the almost exact same time.
Tai walked to his room and shut the door. He took off his goggles, almost hoping his power would come back. Nothing. Auburn eyes stared back at him in the mirror.
Damn, Apaclyamon, Tai thought to himself. How did he come back? We completly destroyed him! How are we going to destroy him now?
Over in the next room, Kari was rejoicing on the inside. She could touch again! She didn't have to wear gloves. Then she realized she was being selfish.
We were given these powers for a reason. And we became Digidestined for a reason. If only we had our powers. How did Apaclyamon come back?
Mrs. Kamiya called Tai and Kari to dinner. Kari didn't want to wear her gloves and Tai left his goggles in his room.
"I see you finally took off those damn goggles, boy," Mr. Kamiya said to Tai as they sat down.
"Let me help you with the plates, Mom," Kari said helping her mom in the kitchen.
"Thank you, Kari."
Kari put the dishes down and hugged her mother. "I love you, Mom."
Mrs. Kamiya was surprised. "Ok, Kari, what do you want?" she asked laughing.
"Nothing. Nothing at all."
Izzy was finished eating dinner and he logged on the computer. There was an e-mail from Gennai. He read it and found the solution to their problem. He gave Ken a call.
