Power of the Mystics
Chapter 2: "The Mystics Clan"
Previously on Power of the Mystics:
Elzom avoided trouble with the Salunaic Clan in Meric Orphanage, but Feroan was able to return his prayer rug. Acemon had almost conquered the Digital World, with Sacred Star Island remaining. He sent Dreadincemon, Mistmon and Tromon to scout Earth, while he sent Gazimon for him to make trouble on Earth. A wealthy twin with his copedam was able to neutralize Gazimon, but the two ran into Dreadincemon, Mistmon and Tromon. Dreadincemon distracted them while they escaped. While her older twin brother was away with his copedam, Tanumia received her own copedam and D-Meric digivice...
The Whistlebow parents were returning from shopping with their twin children when they passed by an orphanage. The father, mother and the twins were all carrying grocery bags in their hands. One of the family cars was nearby. It had been a few days since Coronamon deleted Gazimon, and only Tanumia knew about Lunamon. It was difficult but she was able of keeping Lunamon a secret. She was fearful that Coronamon might sense her but it didn't happen yet. Gentra's orange D-Meric was a cellular with the name above the monitor being Meric.
Parts of the D-Meric were orange while other parts were white. The D-Meric's monitor was something totally different. There was an orange sphere in the center of the D-Meric's monitor, with the crest of light spinning around in the sphere, against a black background. The location of the external connections for the D-Meric hadn't changed, and neither did the connections themselves change. The buttons on the D-Meric were all white in color, while the shapes on the buttons were in orange.
Tanumia's D-Meric was the same except some other crest was spinning around in a black sphere against a black background. Most parts of Tanumia's D-Meric was black while other parts were white. Tanumia had visited with Lunamon when she could and kept her D-Meric with her copedam. Lunamon didn't understand why Tanumia kept her hidden but she remained loyal to her. Tanumia and Gentra glanced inside the orphanage's ground momentarily. They saw orphans inside on its grounds.
They saw Elzom with his eyeglasses alone reading some book, while Samonara was by herself playing with her dolls and Feroan was all alone under a tree. Tanumia noted what Samonara was wearing and took interest in it. The twins saw Salunaic Clan together laughing and talking together. The twins glanced at each other then looked away. The family reached one of their cars and Mr. Whistlebow opened the trunk of the car. One by one, the grocery bags were put into the car's trunk. Once they put all the grocery bags they were carrying in the trunk, they got into the car, closing the doors shut behind them.
The father took the driver's seat, the mother took the passenger seat beside her husband and the twins sat in the back seat together. The car was a white Mercedes. Mr. Whistlebow drove his family back home. The twins glanced at each other, knowing what was on the other's mind. Knowing her older twin brother, Tanumia decided on taking the initiative.
"Mom, was that an orphanage we passed on our way to the car?" Tanumia inquired.
Mrs. Whistlebow didn't turn around to her daughter. "Yes Tanumia. It was an orphanage sweetie."
"Umm... Do you two know anything about it?" Tanumia asked.
"Why?" Mr. Whistlebow asked. "Do you and your brother want to be orphans?" He asked glancing at them with the rear center mirror in the front.
Gentra shook his head. "N-No! But we're just curious."
"Well, it's called Meric Orphanage and it's owned and directed by the same woman: Mrs. Eve Helmina. In the orphanage she lets the orphans choose their own names, whether its first names or family names, and actually is able to register the orphans in the names they choose." Mrs. Whistlebow explained.
"You two aren't planning to check it out some time, are you?" Mrs. Whistlebow inquired, turning to face her children.
The twins shook their heads. "No mom! Why would we want to do that?"
"It was just a thought sweeties." Mrs. Whistlebow muttered, turning her attention towards the street...
The family's Mercedes car stopped in front of the familiar gate to the family's mansion grounds. They all waited for a few moments and the gate opened up. Mr. Whistlebow drove the car into the mansion grounds and stopped the car in front of the mansion. The twins' uncle, who was the father's brother, and the family butler were waiting for them on the steps in front of the mansion entrance. Mr. Whistlebow opened up the trunk and the uncle and butler took the groceries out. The twins and their mother stepped out of the car, closing the doors behind them.
The uncle and butler went into the mansion carrying all the groceries with them. Mr. Whistlebow stared at his wife.
"I'm just going to park the car in the mansion's garage and then I'll join you all in the mansion." Mr. Whistlebow informed.
His wife nodded, and Mr. Whistlebow drove away. The twins hurried into the mansion before their mother. Once in their mansion, the twins separated with Gentra heading upstairs to check on Coronamon while Tanumia went into the kitchen. The family chef was there cutting some vegetables. Ms. Foreen Flowbreeze noticed the younger twin opening the wide refrigerator door.
"Hey Tanumia. Getting yourself a snack?" Ms. Flowbreeze inquired.
Tanumia turned to the family chef, nodding her head quietly, with some food in some container in her hands. She quickly rushed out and the family chef shook her head, smiling quietly. Tanumia hurried through the mansion and went down into the basement. The mansion basement was neatly organized with different stored foods.
"Lunamon?" Tanumia inquired quietly.
"Ms. Tanumia?" Lunamon asked, poking her head out from behind some boxes.
The Tsunami Tide smiled when she saw her human. She quickly noticed the food Tanumia was carrying.
"Hey Lunamon. I was out with my family getting stuff." Tanumia informed, putting down the food. "I don't know if you would like these or not... I'm sorry to have left you all alone all this time."
Lunamon looked up at Tanumia with worry in her human's eyes. Lunamon smiled.
"It's O.K. Ms. Tanumia." Lunamon assured cheerfully. "When can Mr. Gentra and Coronamon know about us?"
Tanumia shook her head. "Not now Lunamon. Have your food, and I'll check up with you later... That reminds me."
Tanumia opened one of the containers, took a piece of cake and started eating it. She rushed towards the basement stairs. She stopped in front of the stairs and swallowed, turning to Lunamon.
"Hide when your hear someone. I'll see you later Lunamon." Tanumia waved.
Lunamon sighed. "I will Ms. Tanumia."
Tanumia vanished up the basement stairs and up into the mansion. The Tsunami Tide put down her human's D-Meric on the ground gently. She sniffed the cakes and her eyes were confused. She opened the other container and sniffed it. Knowing what the smell was and realizing what it was, the Tsunami Tide smiled.
"Well I know milk when I see it." Lunamon muttered. "Even if I sniffed it... Big deal!"
Mr. Whistlebow walked into the family room and the rest of the family, excluding the twins, were all there. His brother, parents and wife were all there.
"I know that look in your face son. Something is bothering you." Mr. Whistlebow's father noted.
The father sighed, taking a seat. "Something has been on my mind since we got back from getting groceries."
"It doesn't have to deal with the twins, does it honey?" Mrs. Whistlebow asked.
Semuz Whistlebow blinked, staring at his wife. "It's bothering you also Sonaka?"
Mrs. Whistlebow nodded.
"What's all this about my grand kids?" Semuz's mother asked.
"On our way back, we passed by Meric Orphanage." Semuz paused. "... The twins must've noticed it because on our way back in the white Mercedes they asked Sonaka and I about it."
"Meric Orphanage?" Conar Whistlebow, Semuz's brother, repeated. "Don't you pass that orphanage all the time?"
"Yes." Sonaka replied. "We do, but it seems this time my babies took notice of it and they seemed interested in it."
"Did you actually see them noticing or paying attention towards the orphanage?" Ranos Whistlebow, Semuz's and Conar's father, asked.
"No." Semuz replied. "But their questions about it made Sonaka and I conclude that they paid attention to it, even though we didn't see it for ourselves."
"They were walking behind us so we wouldn't know." Sonaka added.
"From what you two know, what exactly happened?" Taramowa Whistlebow, Semuz's and Conar's mother, asked.
The parents quickly recounted the conversation they had with their kids in the car on their way back to the mansion. The grandparents and the uncle listened quietly. There was a knock at the door when Sonaka finished recounting the conversation.
"Come in!" Semuz replied.
The door opened up and the family butler walked in with a tray. He put the tray down on the table in the middle of the room.
"It's cider. Would anyone like some?" Travis inquired.
They all nodded solemnly. One by one, Travis gave each one a cup of cider, leaving the cider jar and tray on the table. He left the room, closing the door behind him. Ranos drank some of his cider and placed it back down on the table.
"Well, our grand kids are interested in it. Another thing is for sure, but let them do it. The twins are going to go to that orphanage together soon, and there would be no need for us to try and stop them." The grandfather explained...
"Brother?" Tanumia inquired, poking her head into the twins' bedroom.
Gentra jumped startled, with Coronamon near him. Tanumia quietly stepped into the bedroom she shared with her twin brother, closing the door behind her. Gentra noticed his twin sister's lips and grinned.
"Have you been having cake sis?" Gentra inquired.
Tanumia blinked. "How did you know?"
"There's some crumbs on your lips." Coronamon noted, pointing at the younger twins lips.
The younger twin wiped her lips with the back of her right hand, wiping the crumbs off her lips. Coronamon nodded.
"What have you two been up two?" The younger twin questioned.
"Well, I was going to ask you about not following me, but the cake crumbs pretty much told us that." Gentra muttered, folding his arms and sitting on his bed.
"Your brother has told me about the orphanage." Coronamon informed.
Tanumia turned to her twin brother, taking a seat on her separate bed. "Are we actually going to go there?"
"Yes. Tonight and Coronamon's coming with us." Gentra explained.
"How are we going to leave the mansion grounds?" Tanumia asked.
"The same way your brother and I always leave the grounds." Coronamon replied.
Tanumia blinked, lowering her head and looking at her feet.
"I was going to ask if you wanted to come or not, but it seems something else is on your mind for tonight." Gentra noted.
Tanumia hesitated, but she looked up at her older twin and his copedam.
"There's someone I'd like the two of you to meet in the basement. We'd need to go down there." Tanumia decided, deciding on letting her brother and his copedam meet Lunamon.
The younger twin wanted her copedam to go with them to the mansion and the only way was through letting her brother and Coronamon meet her. Tanumia stood up and opened the bedroom door. Gentra and Coronamon followed the younger twin out of the bedroom...
"Is it O.K. with you for me to see more of your home?" Coronamon asked Gentra, whispering to him.
Gentra nodded. "We'll have to be careful, but I think we'd be able to sneak you into our basement."
Coronamon nodded. He was happy that he was going to see more of his human's home, since the bedroom was the only part of the home that Coronamon knew of. The three walked down the hallway on the second floor and reached the stairs, going downstairs. They turned on the stairs and Tanumia stopped, gesturing for her older twin and his copedam to stop as well.
"Tanumia is going to check where the others are now. We'll wait here." Gentra whispered.
Hearing her twin, Tanumia glanced back at him and nodded, confirming what he said. Coronamon had explained a lot about codelimin to Gentra and Tanumia a few days before he deleted Gazimon so the two twins were aware about codelimin and the Digital World through Coronamon. With Gentra and Coronamon waiting on the stairs, Tanumia continued her way down the stairs reaching the first floor. She stopped and glanced around her for a few moments. With the hallway secure, Tanumia went into the kitchen and saw Ms. Flowbreeze cooking some stuff on the stove.
"Hey Foreen." Tanumia greeted.
The family chef turned her head towards the younger twin. She smiled.
"Hey Ms. Whistlebow. How were the cakes?" The chef inquired.
"Great! Where are my parents and Mr. Jawhiz?" Tanumia asked.
"Your parents are in the family room with your grandparents and your uncle. They've been in there talking with the door closed. Travis is in the garage cleaning the cars. Why?" Ms. Flowbreeze questioned.
Tanumia grinned. "It's a secret, but I promise you'd find out eventually."
Ms. Flowbreeze nodded, watching the younger twin walk out of the kitchen. She returned to the stairs and saw her older twin waiting for her with Coronamon. She nodded towards them and gestured for them to come down. Gentra got up and Coronamon followed him down the stairs. Coronamon made sure that he had a good look of the home that he was seeing. The younger twin led the three towards the basement entrance and she opened the door. She hurried her brother and Coronamon into the basement, and then she entered it, closing the door behind her.
The three walked down the stairs carefully, and once they reached the bottom, Gentra switched on the basement lights, turning on the lights. Tanumia walked pass them towards the containers she put on the ground. Lunamon was no where in sight, but Tanumia wasn't going to call her out just yet. She found the milk container empty, but the cake container was still full. Coronamon noticed the cake container with the cakes in it.
"Cakes!" He exclaimed, hurrying over to the container.
He sat down in front of it, and took a cake from the container and started eating it. Cake was Coronamon's favorite since he had become Gentra's copedam and Gentra introduced cakes to his copedam. Gentra rolled his eyes at his copedam and he walked over to his sister.
"Lunamon!" Tanumia exclaimed.
"Ms. Whistlebow?" Lunamon asked, poking her head out from behind the boxes.
Gentra gasped when he saw the Tsunami Tide, and Coronamon froze, with cake in his mouth and in his hands. Coronamon blinked in surprise at Lunamon, recognizing his twin sister.
"... Are you sure it's time Ms. Whistlebow?" Lunamon asked Tanumia.
Tanumia nodded quietly. Coronamon swallowed and got onto his feet.
"Sis?" Coronamon asked, staring at Lunamon.
Lunamon nodded. "You know it brother."
"Her brother? What?" Gentra exclaimed.
"Lunamon is Coronamon's twin sister." Tanumia explained.
Lunamon walked over to her brother and hugged him. Coronamon dropped his cakes and returned his sister's hug. The twins let go of each other.
"So you're with Tanumia like I'm with her older twin." Coronamon smiled.
"Yeah. It's nice to be with you again Coronamon." Lunamon stated.
Gentra looked at his younger twin sister. "When did this happen?"
"Soon after you and Coronamon left after Gazimon." Tanumia replied.
"And this is your D-Meric." Lunamon added, handing Tanumia her D-Meric.
Tanumia nodded, taking her D-Meric. Gentra glanced at his sister's D-Meric and noticed the difference. He nodded.
"So you want Lunamon to come with us tonight?" Gentra inquired.
"Yes." Tanumia nodded.
"I see it's reasonable, since I'm coming with you Gentra." Coronamon noted, shrugging.
"Come where?" Lunamon questioned...
"You summoned us master?" Dreadincemon asked.
He was with Mistmon in Acemon's throne room. Acemon nodded his head.
"Yes. I've been watching a place on Earth and I think it's a good place to attack. It would lure Apollomon from the Twelve Olympus towards it. Mistmon, go to the portal room. I've already spoken with Vademon. You'll be going to Earth and watching an orphanage. Stay out of sight and out of the buildings, but on the orphanage's grounds. Report back in a few hours." Acemon explained.
"Yes master." Mistmon nodded, bowing.
Mistmon hurried out of the throne room.
"How has our hunts being going Dreadincemon?" Acemon asked.
"The Commandramon after Dorumon is chasing after him, while the Commandramon after Night Salamon is keeping a close watch on him without Night Salamon knowing." Dreadincemon reported.
"Excellent. The two manufactured Commandramon from Kokuwamon's factory assembly do know that they are to bring them back alive, right?" Acemon asked.
Dreadincemon nodded. "Yes master. The Commandramon do know of this."
"Good. As soon as Mistmon returns, I'll send some of my minions to Earth where Mistmon should be watching now. Hopefully Coronamon would arrive and my minions would defeat him, with one of the Olympus Twelve being the only defense in Earth." Acemon explained.
"Coronamon is Apollomon's juvenile form and he's on Earth master?" Dreadincemon questioned.
"You encountered him the last time with his human partner. You were with Mistmon and Tromon scouting a park on Earth, and you distracted Coronamon and his partner with your attack." Acemon reminded.
Dreadincemon nodded. "Of course master. I remember now."
"Good, now leave me." Acemon requested.
"As you wish master." Dreadincemon bowed, leaving the throne room...
Nighttime had arrived and the twins made sure that everyone in the mansion was sound asleep. They had to pretend to sleep too good to not let their parents be suspicious of them. The mansion was dark and quiet through the night. It sent a cold shiver down Tanumia's spine. Gentra noticed.
"Hey sis. I'll be with you, and both Coronamon and Lunamon would be with us." Gentra assured.
"I know." Tanumia replied. "This first time is really nerve-wracking."
Gentra chuckled. "Don't I know!"
He turned to his copedam. "We're ready Coronamon?"
Coronamon nodded. "Yes Whistlebow."
Tanumia locked the bedroom door. Coronamon was the first to go down the wall of the window. Next it was Lunamon's turn, then it was Tanumia's turn. She was scared but she went down the wall carefully. Both Coronamon and Lunamon were ready to catch her if it was needed, but Tanumia was able to reach the ground safely without any trouble. Gentra was last and he had decided beforehand to keep the window open so they would have easy entry when they returned.
Once Gentra was safe on the ground with them, Coronamon led them through the grounds out of sight until they reached a high wall that was part of the wall surrounding the mansion grounds. Coronamon moved some bushes away from the ground near the wall, revealing a hidden hole and tunnel. It was wide enough for one to go in one at a time. Both Gentra and Tanumia had their D-Merics with them. Coronamon was the first one through the short underground tunnel. He had to crawl though and he pushed some bushes aside before he got out on the other side of the wall.
"O.K. Lunamon, you're next." Gentra whispered.
Lunamon nodded and crawled into the tunnel. Moments later Coronamon helped his twin sister out of the tunnel.
"My dress is going to be a mess and it won't go unnoticed!" Tanumia whined, whispering.
Gentra chuckled. Tanumia got down and crawled through the tunnel. She got out the other side, and Gentra quickly followed her. Once they were all together, Gentra covered the tunnel entrance with the same bushes his copedam moved aside. Knowing where the orphanage was and how much they had to walk, the twins started walking with Coronamon and Lunamon behind their humans. The streets were dark but with her twin brother with her and their copedam close behind them, Tanumia felt more secure and safer.
The twins were thinking of disguising their copedam, but once Gentra reminded them that no one would be out at such an hour, the twins abandoned the thought. Gentra dearly hoped he was right and he was sort of nervous that someone might see them and their copedam in the street. So far the streets were empty of people and automobiles. Tanumia wanted to share something with her copedam, and so she stalled and once she was by Lunamon's side, Coronamon hurried over to Gentra's side, keeping him company.
"Is something on your mind Ms. Whistlebow?" Lunamon asked, whispering.
"Yeah. There's something I didn't mention before in the basement. I wanted to tell you first. I haven't told anyone else and I expect that you won't tell anyone including your twin and my twin. Can I trust Lunamon?" Tanumia asked, whispering.
The two kept behind Gentra and Coronamon, but they whispered so that Gentra and Coronamon won't hear them and they didn't hear them. Lunamon was interested and excited.
"Of course Ms. Whistlebow!" Lunamon exclaimed, whispering. "I promise you what you're going to tell me would stay between us and only us would know about it. What is it?"
"Earlier when I saw the orphan girl in Meric Orphanage, the one playing with dolls... Well, she was wearing some clothes, covering her hair completely and not showing her feminine curves. I'm just interested in that and I was wondering if I was to meet her if I would find out what it was she was wearing and why." Tanumia explained, whispering.
Lunamon's eyes lit up. "This sounds serious."
Tanumia nodded. "It is."
Lunamon smiled. "I won't tell a soul Tanumia. I promised you already. Thanks for sharing this with me."
"Your welcome Lunamon." Tanumia smiled.
"... There's something that we forgot about that has been on my mind." Lunamon informed.
"What is it?" Tanumia asked.
"This late during the night, won't everyone in the orphanage be asleep?" Lunamon questioned.
Tanumia sweat-dropped. "Uh... That's a good point Lunamon. I believe they would be. We'll see when we go inside."
The double twins stopped in front of the orphanage. The orphanage had walls around it and the only gate in was locked with a lock and chain. One would need the right key to unlock the lock and open the gate.
"Now what?" Tanumia inquired, whispering.
"Leave that to me." Coronamon grinned, clenching his fists.
Gentra's eyes widened. "Coronamon? I hope you're not going to..."
"Coro Knuckle!" Coronamon yelled, punching the chain hard.
Gentra winced and glanced around him. The two sets of twins waited for a few moments to see if they were going to get any audience and attention. Everything remained quiet and peaceful as if Coronamon didn't punch the chain. The chain had broken from Coronamon's punch and fell to the ground loudly.
"We might've found an easier and quieter way Coronamon." Gentra hissed.
"Yeah." Tanumia agreed, with his hands on her waist. "There's a large tree right there that's big enough and easy enough for all of us to climb over."
"Now in the morning... That is if we aren't caught... Someone is going to find the broken chain." Gentra moaned.
"You worry too much twin." Tanumia giggled.
Coronamon sniffed. "A bad human is approaching our position! We better hide twin sister!"
Lunamon blinked. "I'm right behind you Coronamon."
The two copedam rushed towards the tree quietly.
"We'll see you guys on the other side." Lunamon whispered.
"Hopefully." Coronamon added.
Tanumia and Gentra watched their copedam hide behind the tree. The gate opened up and the twins turned their attention towards it.
"Well, well. What do we have here?" A voice asked.
There was a teen in late teens standing in near the open gate he opened grinning. He was staring at Tanumia and winked his right eye at her.
"Move aside or you're going to be sorry... Who ever you are." Gentra hissed.
"Shouldn't you be sleeping?" Tanumia asked, ignoring his wink and stare.
"My name is Jereiph Scorpion. I'm the leader of Salunaic Clan in this humble orphanage and we own this orphanage. As for your question babe, I was sleeping but then I heard some sort of yell and I came out to check." Jereiph explained.
Gentra laughed. "Oh yeah! That's funny! Now move aside before your groin would hurt you as hell."
Jereiph raised his eyebrows, staring at Gentra. "... No need to be hostile. Just say you want to come in. Everyone else is sleeping."
"Yeah... I'd bet that... I also told you to move aside!" Gentra muttered, walking into the orphanage grounds.
Tanumia followed her older twin onto the grounds, and the moment she stepped into the orphanage grounds, she felt an arm around her neck, knowing it was Jereiph.
"Tell me babe, what has brought you and him here?" Jereiph asked, staring at Tanumia.
"Umm... That's none of your business." Tanumia replied.
"O.K. That's the only time I'll hear that from a babe like you. Now I want you to answer me before he gets hurt." Jereiph warned, gesturing towards Gentra.
Tanumia laughed. She slipped Jereiph's arm off her neck and quickly joined her older twin.
"This is my older twin brother." Tanumia informed.
"Exactly, so you better back off." Gentra warned.
"Jereiph?" A feminine voice asked.
"Frisnee?" Jereiph gasped, turning to the voice. "What are you doing up late?"
Frisnee walked over to Jereiph. "Well you weren't in bed when I woke up, so I decided to come out and see where you were."
Gentra snapped his fingers. "Corona Flame!"
A flame hit and caught onto Jereiph's jacket and another on Frisnee's vest. The two clothes quickly caught fire, and they had to rush away out of sight to deal with it. Gentra sighed.
"That was amusing." Tanumia remarked, grinning.
"He was flirting with you and you call that amusing? It was gross! Come on. We need to regroup with Coronamon and Lunamon." Gentra reminded.
"Did you and Coronamon understand each other with the snapping of the fingers?" Tanumia asked.
"Yeah. We agreed on it long ago. Forget about the gate; we might need to have a quick escape." Gentra informed.
The twins rushed towards the tree where the attack came from, and regrouped with their copedam.
"Are you O.K. Ms. Whistlebow?" Lunamon asked with concern in her eyes.
Tanumia sighed. "Yes Lunamon. The way Jereiph acted with me was amusing. Everything's O.K. now."
"Were those two some of the orphans you saw earlier?" Coronamon asked.
"Yeah. Jereiph Scorpion of Salunaic Clan. They'd be back, and they're trouble. A yell and flames coming after them won't be something they'd quickly forget. You were right; he is bad. Thanks Coronamon." Gentra thanked, rubbing Coronamon's cheek.
"Your welcome Gentra." Coronamon nodded.
"We probably need to stay on the buildings side now and hope that we'd find an open window to sneak in." Tanumia whispered.
Gentra nodded. Staying near the building's side, Tanumia took the lead with Lunamon behind her. Behind Lunamon were Gentra and Coronamon. They had their backs knelt down and their legs also knelt so they would stay out of sight just as a precaution...
It wasn't long before the four twins found an open window close to the ground. Tanumia was the first to carefully peek in and look around carefully and slowly. It seemed it was an orphan bedroom with all the orphans sleeping. Tanumia nodded and looked at Lunamon, Gentra and Coronamon.
"O.K. This might be our only way in. We need to be quiet and careful now." Tanumia whispered.
"What room was it sis?" Gentra asked.
"Some orphan bedroom." Tanumia shrugged.
"Did you see any familiar orphan?" Gentra asked.
"It's dark and the orphans are sleeping on their sides, so I don't know." Tanumia replied.
"I'm going in first." Coronamon informed, moving in front of the window.
"No brother! Your light might wake them up. I'll go in first and have a look. When it's clear, I'd tell the rest of you." Lunamon decided.
"Sure thing Lunamon." Coronamon nodded, backing away.
Lunamon took her twin brother's place and pulled herself up, and quickly jumped into the bedroom.
"First time out of the mansion and you're doing great sis." Gentra smiled.
Tanumia blushed. "Really? Thanks."
Lunamon looked around the dark bedroom. There were over a dozen sleeping orphans in the bedroom, but all were asleep. Lunamon nodded to herself and went back quietly to the window.
"O.K. They're all asleep." Lunamon informed.
"Wait... I have a better idea. I'll go in and look around at the orphans. When I find two of the orphans we saw earlier I'll cover their mouths, they'd wake up and you Coronamon would take the first while you take the second Tanumia." Gentra explained.
"What about the third?" Tanumia asked, whispering.
"The third would come out after us and them." Gentra grinned, going over the window.
Tanumia shook her head. "I don't like this."
"We aren't going to harm them." Coronamon whispered. "I do like Mr. Whistlebow's plan though."
"Of course you would." Tanumia muttered.
Lunamon watched Gentra, remaining in her place while Gentra slowly and carefully walked around the bedroom. Gentra looked from one face to another. When he didn't recognize a face, he moved on and that continued on for awhile while Tanumia and Coronamon waited patiently outside. Without Lunamon or Gentra knowing it, an orphan was quietly watching them. He had his eyes wide open in fear and shock, but he remained quiet. The orphan that was awake was hoping that both Lunamon and Gentra won't notice him and eventually leave, leaving him alone.
The orphan didn't even know what Lunamon was, but he knew it was alive when it moved around on its own. The door to the bedroom suddenly opened flooding the bedroom with light. Outside, both Tanumia and Coronamon moved away from the window. Their hearts were racing and straining their ears to hear anything. When the bedroom was suddenly flooded with light, Gentra had just finished checking one of the sleeping orphans, an orphan he didn't recognize. He quickly ducked onto his stomach with the beds covering him from sight from who ever entered.
Lunamon acted quickly and also ducked onto her back as fast as she could. The orphan that was awake closed his eyes, but he felt more secure with a smile on his face thinking that the intruders would get caught. Noticing that everything was quiet and that the orphans were sleeping, Mrs. Eve Helmina closed the door, eliminating the light that had flooded into the bedroom, returning the darkness to the bedroom. Gentra quietly sighed. Lunamon was the first to get up. Frightful once more, the orphan that was awake opened his eyes and kept watch of Gentra and Lunamon, noticing that they weren't caught.
When the light went away, Tanumia glanced into the orphan bedroom. She noticed Lunamon getting up, and her older twin brother also getting up. She sighed deeply.
"They're O.K. right?" Coronamon asked, whispering.
Tanumia nodded. Coronamon smiled. Gentra went back to checking the sleeping orphan faces one by one. He eventually reached a familiar face and his eyes widened. The orphan was sleeping, but his blonde long hair was too familiar. Gentra grinned, quietly clapping his hands together and rubbing them. He saw the orphan wearing eyeglasses before, where as while he slept he wasn't wearing them. Gentra glanced around him and noticed some eyeglasses on a bed stand. The bed stand was near the sleeping orphan's bed. Gentra took the eyeglasses and put it securely on his shirt.
He quickly covered the sleeping orphan's mouth, careful not to cover his nose. Feeling his mouth being covered, the orphan's eyes snapped open and they were the familiar green eyes. Even though he was far, Gentra was able to see the eyes of the orphans he saw. The orphan's eyes were wide in fear. Gentra quickly uncovered him. He found that the orphan was in the same clothes he was in when Gentra saw him earlier during the day. The blonde orphan wasn't wearing his blue cap or his shoes, but he was wearing his blue cape.
Gentra easily picked him up in his arms, even though their age difference was only one year. Gentra carefully walked to the window carrying the blonde orphan. The orphan that was awake was even more fearful for himself when he witnessed his fellow orphan being taken. Gentra reached the window. Tanumia saw him and recognized the orphan he had. She nodded her head and helped in getting the blonde orphan quietly over the window. Coronamon quickly took hold of the blonde boy, putting his hand around the orphan's mouth, keeping him quiet.
Tanumia stared at the blonde orphan, while her older twin brother went back in checking the orphans.
"We aren't going to harm you." Tanumia whispered. "We just want to talk with you and two other orphans outside the building. Are you going to be quiet?"
The blonde orphan nodded his head with Coronamon covering his mouth.
Tanumia nodded. "You can let him go Coronamon."
Coronamon sighed. "O.K. I'll cover your mouth quicker if you yell or something."
He slowly removed his hand from the blonde orphan's mouth. The orphan was quiet for a few moments.
"... What about my eyeglasses and my shoes?" The orphan asked, whispering.
"My older twin brother would get them." Tanumia assured.
The orphan nodded. Feroan's eyes opened slowly, and he had witnessed some total stranger around his age take Elzom. Feroan remained quiet and watched as the stranger looked around the bedroom with a strange creature staying in its place. Feroan would've screamed but he wasn't that type of person who could easily get scared like that, especially with strange creatures like the one in the bedroom. Feroan didn't hear Elzom, and hoped quietly that he was fine. Feroan also noticed Jolin awake, with his eyes wide in fear. Feroan realized that Jolin was awake before him and probably saw more than he did.
Gentra reached the second orphan he recognized and it was a girl this time with her hair completely covered. He was more careful and gentler with her, but he did the same with her as he did with Elzom. Samonara's eyes snapped open in fear, but she remained quiet. Gentra brought her to the window. Feroan realized that the stranger had also got Samonara. He quietly gasped. Tanumia got Samonara and covered her mouth. Samonara noticed Elzom with them and her eyes were fearful and questioning.
"They aren't going to harm us. We'll be fine. They just want to talk with us and another orphan." Elzom assured.
Samonara blinked, and trusting the blonde, her fear slowly vanished and she relaxed a bit. Tanumia sensed the younger girl relax and she let go of her. Gentra helped Lunamon out of the window. With Lunamon out, Gentra went over the window and joined the others.
"We better moving away from the building. Hopefully Jereiph and Frisnee won't come out onto the grounds." Gentra whispered.
"Is the third going to come after us?" Tanumia asked, whispering.
Gentra nodded. "I saw him awake out of the corner of my eyes, slowly getting up... This means we better get moving."
Elzom turned to Tanumia. "What about my shoes?"
"And mine?" Samonara added shyly.
Gentra shrugged. "I have a feeling the third guy would get them for you two."
Elzom narrowed his eyes at Tanumia and shook his head. Tanumia shrugged. The two sets of twins and the two orphans quietly and quickly walked away from the building. Inside Feroan gathered Samonara's boots and Elzom's sport shoes. He put on his own shoes, went to the window and jumped over. The shoes and boots remained with him...
The two sets of twins and the two orphans reached the orphanage's front wide yard and settled down under a tree. Lunamon remained close to Tanumia, with Gentra and Coronamon on Tanumia's other side. Elzom was on the opposite side with Samonara close to him, with her face lowered. Both Tanumia and Gentra noticed the girl's shyness and sensed that she felt more secure with Elzom. Gentra took off Elzom's eyeglasses from his shirt and handed it over to Elzom. Elzom quietly took them and put them on, with his eyesight becoming clear with his eyeglasses on.
"O.K. So what's this all about?" Elzom asked.
Tanumia smiled. "I'm Tanumia Whistlebow and this is my older twin brother, Gentra Whistlebow. We've just wanted to talk with you two."
"Who-Who or what are-are they?" Samonara asked, pointing at Lunamon and Coronamon.
"They're codelimin. It's quite a long story. They're peaceful and loyal to us. That is Lunamon and she's my sister copedam. Coronamon here is my copedam. Copedam is a codelimin partnered with a human." Gentra explained.
"I'm Elzom Greenglade and this is Samonara Silverstar. How did you four get in? Aren't the gates shut and locked?" Elzom asked.
Coronamon sweat-dropped. "Not anymore."
Gentra snorted. "Yeah! Coronamon here busted the chain on the gate and he hid with Lunamon when Jereiph came out."
"So Salunaic is awake?" Elzom asked.
Tanumia shrugged. "Not the whole clan, probably just Jereiph and Frisnee. They might have went back to sleep by now."
"If they were successful in putting out Coronamon's flames." Gentra grinned.
Tanumia laughed. Elzom and Samonara sweat-dropped staring at the twins in confusion.
"Who the hell are you two?" An angry voice demanded.
Gentra sighed. "And here comes the third orphan."
Feroan slowly approached them angrily. He was carrying Elzom's shoes and Samonara's boots. Samonara sighed when she saw Feroan carrying her boots.
"Excuse him. His name is Feroan Spenian." Elzom informed.
Feroan reached the twins and dumped the shoes and boots on the ground. He was glad to see that no harm came to Elzom and Samonara, but he was glaring at Gentra and Tanumia. Elzom grabbed his shoes and Samonara's boots. He gave Samonara her boots, while he put on his own shoes, tying the shoelaces. Samonara took her boots from Elzom and put them on her feet, quickly covering them after she put them on.
"They just want to talk with us Feroan. They aren't going to hurt us." Elzom whispered.
"Mrs. Helmina should know about this, because I don't want to be blamed on this!" Feroan exclaimed.
"Why would you be blamed?" Samonara inquired.
"Because I always am the one blamed!" Feroan snapped at her.
Samonara jumped in surprise at Feroan's harshness. Quickly realizing what he did, he sighed.
"I'm sorry Samonara, but it isn't everyday strangers come into the orphanage!" Feroan hissed, glaring at the twins.
"... I'm Tanumia Whistlebow and this is my older twin brother Gentra Whistlebow." Tanumia hesitantly greeted.
They all noticed Gentra trying to restrain himself from snapping at Feroan.
"What? But won't couples come in to adopt orphans?" Lunamon asked quietly.
Feroan turned to the Tsunami Tide and he was silenced. He backed away behind Elzom and Samonara.
"Yeah!" Coronamon agreed. "Couples who would come to adopt orphans are "strangers" just like Mr. Whistlebow and Ms. Whistlebow here."
Elzom shook his head. "As far as I remember, no couples, or even singles, have come into the orphanage to adopt any of its orphans. I've been here since I was two-years-old and Samonara when she was one-year-old."
"What?" Gentra exclaimed.
"But why?" Tanumia asked.
Elzom shrugged. "I don't know. It might be that people know this orphanage and know that we choose our own names, both first and family names, for ourselves. They also probably don't have time for us."
Gentra smiled, tapping his chin with his finger. "That's new. It's interesting to know that we're the first "strangers" in here sis."
Tanumia nodded. "It sure is interesting."
Feroan remained quiet, taking a seat behind Elzom and Samonara, but he kept his eyes on the human twins.
"... Wait a minute... Aren't you two wealthy with money?" Elzom asked. "I mean I've read that the Whistlebow has lots of money and a mansion here in the city."
Tanumia sighed. "We are the children of Mr. Semuz Whistlebow and Mrs. Sonaka Whistlebow. It's our father's family that is loaded with money. We are well off financially."
"What are two spoiled loaded twins doing in an orphanage during the night? Isn't it more comfortable back at your mansion?" Feroan asked rudely.
"Spoiled?" Gentra repeated. "I..."
He turned to his twin sister. "We're spoiled, aren't we sis?"
"I'm afraid so." Tanumia nodded. "We just would like to become friends with you three. That's why we're here."
"Yeah. Our parents had told us earlier today about you orphans choosing your own first and family names. So we already knew that... We might be "loaded" with money, but we don't have friends our age." Gentra explained.
"And you two chose the three of us out of all the orphans?" Feroan asked.
"Well, you three are definitely better than that Salunaic Clan!" Tanumia snapped.
Feroan winced. "You know them?"
Gentra chuckled. "Yeah. Jereiph flirted with my sis here. Frisnee showed up and it was Coronamon here who chased them away with one of his attacks."
"Attacks?" Elzom repeated.
Coronamon nodded. "All codelimin have their own techniques or attacks they could do. Since I'm loyal to Mr. Whistlebow here, I won't let any human or anything harm him. If he asks for my help, I'd eagerly respond and help out."
Feroan folded his arms, lowering his head. "Just another thing to add to the list of why I hate that clan."
"... Is it true what Jereiph said?" Tanumia asked. "I mean he said that Salunaic Clan "own" this orphanage."
The three orphans glanced at each other nervously.
"I'm going to be direct with you. Salunaic Clan is like a bullying and teasing gang. They are the only "gang" here in the orphanage. I remember a few years ago when Jereiph tried to overpower Mrs. Helmina, who's the founder and director of this orphanage. He failed because Mrs. Helmina knows Martial Arts and she was able to teach Jereiph a valuable lesson." Elzom explained.
"What?" Feroan asked.
"How did you know such a thing Elzom?" Samonara asked, staring at the blonde.
"I kind of witnessed it with other orphans. Other Salunaic Clan members also witnessed it, but it happened before Jolin and Jereim joined it. After that, Salunaic Clan has been trying to suck up to Mrs. Helmina." Elzom replied.
Feroan snorted. "I'd say."
"Why doesn't Mrs. Helmina do something about the clan? I mean she knows Martial Arts and she's the founder and director. She could easily kick the clan out of the orphanage, or have the police send them to jail." Gentra informed.
"I'd love to see that day come." Feroan agreed.
"I think Mrs. Helmina doesn't do it because if she kicked the clan out of the orphanage, they won't have any shelter and would become worse on the streets. She's also trying to keep young people away from jail." Elzom explained.
"Hey, what do you three say we form our own "clan" to counter Salunaic Clan?" Tanumia inquired.
The three orphans were quiet.
"It's a good idea sis, but even if they agree what should we name it?" Gentra asked.
"Spenian Clan." Feroan instantly suggested.
Gentra snorted. "You'd wish! Besides we need a name that isn't related to our own names in anyway."
"How about the Mystics Clan?" Lunamon asked.
The five teens were quiet for a few moments.
"I like it." Elzom agreed.
"Yeah. Mr. Whistlebow being my Mystic. That does have a good ring to it." Coronamon agreed.
"I'm in." Samonara added.
"So am I. I admit that I like it." Feroan shrugged.
"Sis?" Gentra asked.
Tanumia nodded. "Lunamon was the one to come up with it. Great job Lunamon! I love it!"
Gentra smiled. "I accept it."
Gentra put his palm into the air in the middle. "O.K. Let's agree from tonight that the Mystics Clan has officially been made."
Coronamon put his hand over his mystic's hand. Tanumia put her hand over Coronamon's, and Lunamon's put her hand over Tanumia's.
"What would we mystics do?" Elzom asked.
"My brother and I would not always be around to help you with Salunaic Clan, so you three would have to trust and help each other against them." Tanumia informed.
"We'd help you when we come." Gentra grinned.
Elzom shrugged. "I'm in."
He put his open palm over Lunamon's hand.
"Just as long as we get a copedam each like Lunamon and Coronamon, I'm in." Samonara decided, putting her hand over Elzom's.
Feroan got up and walked over to them.
"Yeah sure. I've been wanting to kick Salunaic so hard. I'd appreciate any help I get. Not to mention, if Elzom and Samonara are around, they help me with Mrs. Helmina, especially when Salunaic start sucking up to her." Feroan requested.
"I'd definitely support you and help you against Salunaic with Mrs. Helmina." Elzom nodded.
"Same here." Samonara agreed.
Being the last, Feroan put his hand over Samonara's hand.
"On three we move our hands away." Gentra informed. "1... 2... 3..."
"Mystics Clan!" The seven yelled, quickly withdrawing their hands.
The orphans laughed with the twins...
Samonara stopped laughing when she saw a bush moving. With her friends laughing, Samonara quietly slipped away from them and headed towards the bush. She glanced behind it and yelled out, quickly catching her friends' attention. Feroan and Elzom quickly rushed to Samonara's side. Gentra glanced at Coronamon. Coronamon sniffed towards the bush and blinked.
"I smell a codelimin, but it isn't hostile or bad." Coronamon informed.
"What?" Gentra asked, getting up.
He went over the three orphans. Some sort of plant raised its head out of the bushes. The plant seemed to have red petals for a head and blue eyes. Gentra glanced back at Coronamon. Coronamon and Lunamon were smiling at the codelimin. They approached it with Tanumia.
"Floramon!" Lunamon exclaimed.
The plant blinked at Lunamon and it gasped. "Lunamon?"
Lunamon nodded. "The one and only."
Floramon sniffed, tears appearing out of her eyes. "I thought Acemon had caught you!"
The two codelimin embraced each other.
"What's going on here?" Feroan asked.
Floramon let go of Lunamon. She wiped her tears from her face.
"My name is Floramon and I'm one of Lunamon's close friends from the Digital World. I thought she was captured by Acemon..." Floramon paused, noticing Samonara who she saw in the first place.
"Samonara Silverstar?" She asked, blinking.
"I don't believe it." Tanumia gasped.
"No way." Gentra muttered.
"What?" Elzom asked.
Lunamon grinned. "That's the same way at least I met Tanumia. I'm Tanumia's copedam, so if Floramon recognizes Ms. Silverstar, then that means..."
"... That she's her copedam." Coronamon finished, smiling.
Floramon nodded. "Yes. Ms. Samonara Silverstar, I'm Floramon and I'm your copedam. I also have you D-Meric, but it's behind the bushes."
Samonara was completely speechless. It was her who mentioned that she and the other two orphans get a codelimin like the twins, and so afterwards her wish was granted. Understanding Samonara's shock, Tanumia retrieved her friend's D-Meric and noticed that it was the same except with the difference being it was green and white with some different crest spinning in the digivice's screen. Everyone remained silent.
"... My very own copedam." Samonara whispered, sniffing and getting on her legs.
Floramon walked over to her mystic. She embraced Samonara, and her mystic return the embrace.
"I never thought I'd actually meet you Samonara, but I'm so happy that I finally have." Floramon explained, sobbing happily on her mystic's shoulder.
Samonara patted her copedam's back, closing her eyes. Elzom noticed how happy Samonara was and he was happy for her...
"Thisss isss nice." A new voice hissed.
Feroan jumped and turned around, noticing three snakes near them. He paled, backing away. Coronamon, Lunamon and Floramon all quickly jumped in front of the mystics. Floramon wiped her face from her tears.
"I just got you Floramon." Samonara whispered, slowly standing up.
Elzom put his hand on Samonara's shoulder.
"She'll be O.K." Elzom assured.
"Get them Coronamon!" Gentra ordered, with his copedam in front of you.
"You too Lunamon." Tanumia nodded, with her copedam in front of her.
"Watch out for yourself." Samonara whispered.
Floramon nodded.
"Corona Flame!" Coronamon yelled.
"Tear Shoot!" Lunamon yelled.
Lunamon released a crescent shaped blast from her hands at one of the snakes.
"Serpent Guard!" The two snakes yelled.
The snake was a large snake with yellow eyes. Its snake skin was colored red.
The eyes of the two snakes turned red and a red energy serpent was summoned in front of the snakes, and twirled around itself, forming a red serpent shield with the serpent's head at the front. The two attacks collided with the shields and exploded harmlessly. The shield vanished. Coronamon's eyes twitched. Lunamon readied herself for another attack.
"Who are they?" Tanumia asked.
"We don't know. We see them a lot in the Digital World, but we don't know much about them." Lunamon replied.
"The D-Meric could help us." Gentra suggested, taking out his orange D-Meric.
A 3D image of one of the snakes was imitated out of Gentra's D-Meric, with the snake spinning around. The voice that spoke, giving information about the snake, was close to Gentra's.
"Basimon - Maturity Reptile Grasl - Basimon was short for Basilisk Monster. Basimon was part of the Nether Troops. Basimon understood snake language, codelimin language and some human language. He was the evil brother of the two brothers. Basimon took pleasure in killing and eating their victims. Spiders of any kind fear them and flee before them. Basimon were one of the most deadly known codelimin of any kind - His attacks are: Serpent Whip, Serpent Guard, Serpent Death, Serpent Squeeze, Serpent Petrify, Arachnid Acid."
When the D-Meric mentioned the attacks, the 3D image imitated them harmlessly.
"Well, that's our answer." Gentra shrugged, putting his D-Meric back into his shorts.
"First time you use it?" Feroan inquired.
"Like that, yes." Gentra replied.
"Rain of Pollen!" Floramon yelled.
She released her pollen at the third Basimon, and it couldn't defend itself quickly so when the pollen reached it, it quickly fell asleep, falling onto the its side on the ground. Samonara smiled.
"Nice." She commented.
"The sssame won't happen with usss." One of the Basimon that was awake informed.
"We'll see. Petit Prominence!" Coronamon yelled.
"You shall be the firssst to fall." The second Basimon that was awake decided.
"Never! Coro Knuckle!" The two Coronamon yelled.
"Serpent Petrify!" Basimon yelled.
"Brother!" Lunamon yelled. "Dark Crusher!"
Lunamon released a blast of dark purple energy from her lower ears. Dark Crusher intercepted Serpent Petrify before it reached either Coronamon. The attack was instantly turned to stone. It dropped to the ground and shattered to data. The two Coronamon merged into one out of surprise. Floramon rushed at one of the Basimon that were still awake. The Basimon noticed her.
"Serpent Petrify!" Basimon yelled.
Floramon stopped, and the attack exploded on her, turning her to stone.
"Floramon!" Samonara yelled.
She would rushed over to her copedam, if Elzom wasn't holding her back.
"Elzom, please!" Samonara pleaded, struggling against Elzom.
"You'll just be turned to stone. Lunamon and Coronamon are still here and they still can fight. They'll handle this." Elzom assured.
'Besides I won't want you to turn to stone.' Elzom silently thought.
Samonara sobbed sadly, stopped struggling and turned to Elzom, putting her face on the boy's chest, quietly sobbing on it. Elzom was surprised, but he closed his eyes and hugged Samonara.
"Serpent Whip!" Basimon yelled, whipping Coronamon back.
Coronamon fell onto his back on the ground in front of his mystic.
"Shadow Nail!" Lunamon yelled.
"Serpent Petrify!" Basimon yelled.
The attack exploded on Lunamon, instantly turning her to stone. Tanumia moaned.
"It's up to you Coronamon." Gentra whispered.
Coronamon blinked, standing up. "I won't let you down Gentra."
He slowly approached the two Basimon.
"Serpent Petrify!" The two Basimon yelled.
"Petit Prominence!" Coronamon yelled, splitting himself.
"Corona Flame!" The two Coronamon yelled.
The two Serpent Petrify attacks smashed into the duel Corona Flame attacks, turning them to stone, and protecting Coronamon. The Corona Flame attacks fell to the ground and shattered into data. Coronamon quickly withdrew his clone back into himself. The five mystics were in awe at Coronamon's performance, and their hope started to rise with thoughts of Coronamon being able to actually defeat the two snakes. Except for Gentra, who knew it was still dangerous for Coronamon.
"Be careful Coronamon!" Gentra exclaimed.
Coronamon raised his right arm and gave a thumbs-up to his mystic. Gentra smiled, and felt some warmth from his D-Meric. He took it out of his shorts' pocket. Coronamon felt his strength returned, and his strength wasn't only fully returned, but it was also boosted. Coronamon glowed orange. With the words coming to his mind without even knowing them, Gentra acted on them. He brought the orange glowing D-Meric closer to his chest.
"Digital Breeze Engage!" Gentra yelled, releasing energy from his orange glowing hand into his D-Meric.
An orange beam was released from the glowing orange D-Meric towards the orange glowing Coronamon. It exploded into Coronamon and orange fire covered his entire form, evolving him. Coronamon became huger and got onto four legs. His yellow mane grew thicker around his head and chest. His face become somewhat similar to a lion's snout, with some of Coronamon's features still on the lion's face, but bigger. Orange feathery wings sprouted out from underneath the thick yellow mane.
"CORONAMON SHINKA!"
"... FIRAMON!"
The glow around the new copedam vanished along with the glow from the D-Meric. Gentra gasped at the site of his copedam. A 3D image of the newly evolved Coronamon was imitated out of Gentra's D-Meric, with the evolved form spinning around. The voice that spoke, giving information about the snake, was close to Gentra's.
"Firamon - Maturity Beast Jerebi - Firamon was also known as "The Lion of the Skies". He was both a troublesome codelimin and a brave-natured leader. Firamon was Coronamon's maturity form, and the maturity form of Apollomon, who was one of the famous Olympus Twelve. No other maturity codelimin's firepower matches Firamon's - His attacks are: Flame Dive, Fira Claw, Fire Bomb."
"Wow." Feroan whistled.
"Way to go twin brother!" Tanumia cheered. "Go get them Firamon!"
"Amazing." Samonara whispered in awe.
"Truly." Elzom agreed.
It was obvious that the two Basimon that were awake were startled from the sudden appearance of Firamon. Firamon just held his ground, letting everyone around him slowly swallow and absorb his site. Gentra was speechless, with his jaw wide open. It was the first time Coronamon had evolved to his maturity form since Gentra became his mystic. Gentra didn't understand how it happened or how he knew what to say.
"... Ready for round 2?" Firamon's loud and firm voice questioned.
The two snakes hissed.
"Serpent Petrify!" The two Basimon yelled.
"Fira Claw!" Firamon yelled.
Firamon's claw caught fire, and he smashed his claw into the attacks, deleting them. The two Basimon were stunned. Taking the advantage, Firamon flew into the dark night sky. He was like a lighthouse beacon in the dark sky.
"Flame Dive!" Firamon yelled.
Firamon's entire body caught fire, and then he dove down at one of the stunned Basimon. Both Basimon were too shocked to move. Firamon smashed into one of the Basimon, and exploded, with the second Basimon being caught in the explosion and also being deleted. The smoke calmed down and Firamon walked out of the small crater he made. He stopped and absorbed the deleted data into his body. When he was done, he slowly approached the sleeping Basimon. He was growling in his throat.
"This is unbelievable." Tanumia whispered with wide eyes.
"He's one strong form." Feroan noted.
Firamon pressed one of his clawed paws against the sleeping Basimon's throat.
"Wake up!" Firamon roared.
The mystics winced at Firamon's tense voice. The Basimon's eyes snapped open. It saw Firamon and felt his claws on its throat.
"Your fellow snakes are deleted and I absorbed their data. Now tell me, there is a way to turn my sister and Floramon back to normal. What is it?" Firamon demanded.
"You-You'll-You'll need to-to-find Lissskmon in the-Digital-World. Only Lissskmon can-turn them-back to-normal." Basimon explained.
"Liskmon?" Firamon repeated. "Who's that?"
"Lissskmon are relatives to Basssimon. They are good codelimin and would willingly help anyone out." Basimon informed.
"Thank you." Firamon thanked. "I didn't mention I'd spare your data though. Fira Claw!"
The last Basimon was deleted and Firamon absorbed his data. Elzom heard what the Basimon had told Firamon. Firamon glowed orange and devolved back to Coronamon. Gentra shook his head and rushed towards Coronamon, hugging him, with his D-Meric still in his hand...
COMING UP! CHAPTER 3: TRAILING FOR ASSISTANCE
