2. Chapter

Meeting of the Rivals, Akari's Quest!

It was late evening as Akari and BlackGatomon arrived in the Underground Arena. They soon found their friends talking with each other.

"Hi, Akari, we thought you wouldn't come." said Nanami.
"My mother wanted me to take some piano lessons so I couldn't come eariler." explained Akari.
"You're pretty good at it." said BlackGatomon. Akari only shrugged and looked at her friends.
"Am I counting it right or are Akira, BlackAgumon, Arisa and Impmon really missing?" she asked.
"They told me that they're searching for that boy, Ryo Monogami and Dracomon." explained Takuto.
"Yeah sure." replied Coronamon with slight sarcasam in his tone. "They're only searching for a corner to start making out."
"Coronamon, please shut up." said Shawn.
"Anyways, you noticed that today are much more Tamers and Digimon then yesterday." Noah tried to change the topic.
"It's the 2nd day of the DRA Tournament. I bet that half of the competitors were kicked out." said Ken.
"And I bet that our group who went to the Tournament is still participateing at the Survival Exam." said Nanami.
"There should be 16 Teams at the Arena Battles. And our group has about 10 teams." said Wormmon.
"If they hold together they'll sure all pass to the Arena Battles part." said Guilmon.
"What I wondered, are we counting Sara, Lunamon, Ami, Opossumon, Miko and Monodramon in the group?" asked Wizardmon.
"Not sure." shrugged Shawn.
"Well, I don't count in that little hussy and her furball partner." said Akari.
"You mean Ami and Opossumon? Why are you so angry at them?" asked DemiDevimon.
"That's a loooong story." Akari sighed.
"Why don't you tell us? We have time." said Coronamon.

[Angels by Morandi plays]

It was night in the DigiWorld. The Tamers deceided to split up in three little groups. The first group contained Rene and Renamon, Hikaru and Elecmon, Taito and Shoutmon. The second group contained Kenny and Terriermon, Dean and Veemon, Akita and Dorumon, Satoshi and ExAgumon. The third group contained Haruka and Gatomon, Karin and Lopmon, Ryoma and Patamon.

The Guardians were walking through a dark forest. Everything was pitch black, save for the Real World which was illuminating their way.

"So, which way should we go now?" asked Haruka. They stopped in front of three paths. They suddenly twitched as they heard laughs.

"Why don't you just go home?" came a sharp feminine voice from the crown of the tree.
"Who are you? Show yourself!" hissed Gatomon.
"And who are you?" came a cold, male voice from an another tree.
"Wanna a battle?" came a different male voice.
"Why not, but batteling voices ain't a real battle." said Lopmon. Soon, three humans, two boys, one girl and three Digimon jumped down from the trees. The teens all had dark colored clothes and jet black hair. They all seemed to be between 15-17 years old.

"How about telling us who you are." said Ryoma.
"I'm Kura and this is my partner BlackGatomon. I'm the leader of our group." said the girl.
"My name is Otoshi and I'm Kura's older brother. This is my partner DemiDevimon." said the older boy.
"I'm Kai and this is Lopmon, my partner." said the other boy. "We would now like to hear who you are."

"I'm Karin Matsumi and Lopmon is my partner." said Karin.
"I'm Haruka Hinaki and Gatomon's my partner." said Haruka.
"And I'm Haruka's younger twin brother Ryoma Hinaki. Patamon's my partner." said Ryoma.

"So, since we all introduced ourselves, let's start the match." said Kura pulling out a card. "3 vs. 3 like it seems."

"DIGIMODIFY, DIGI-ARENA ACTIVATE!"

~DemiDevimon 100 HP BlackGatomon 100 HP Lopmon 100 HP

Patamon 100 HP Gatomon 100 HP Lopmon 100 HP~

"Seems like everyone will pick up an foe. I'm starting with the pussy cat and her Tamer." said Kura.
"Who do you call pussy cat!" yelled Gatomon angrily back.

"BlackGatomon. Level: Champion. Attribute: Virus. Type: Demon Beast Digimon. Attacks: Lighting Paw and Cat's Eyes." read Haruka on her D-Power. "It's a black version of Gatomon and lacks the Holy Ring."
"Gatomon. Level: Champion. Attribute: Vaccine. Type: Holy Beast Digimon. Attacks: Lightning Paw and Cat's Eye Hypnotism." read Kura on her D-Power "It has a very healthy curiosity, so it loves pranks. Although its body is small, it is a precious Holy-species Digimon, and its appearance does not match the true strength it possesses. It wears a Holy Ring on its tail, but if it is lost, its power is decreased and it can no longer exhibit its original power. In order to defend itself, it wears long claws copied from SaberLeomon's data."

"Then we're taking on that twin brother." said Otoshi, smiling deviously. "Patamon. Level: Rookie. Attribute: Vaccine. Type: Mammal Digimon. Attacks: Boom Bubble and Hane Binta. It is characterized by its big ears, and is able to fly through the air by using them as big wings, but because it only goes at a speed of 1 kph, it is said that it is definitely faster walking. However, it's very popular because its appearance is cute when it is desperately flying (though it seems that it doesn't feel the same). Due to its extremely obedient personality, its trainers are well-defended. Also, even though Patamon doesn't wear a Holy Ring, it is able to exhibit its hidden holy power, and it appears to have inherited the genes of ancient Digimon."
"DemiDevimon. Level: Rookie. Attribute: Virus. Type: Mini Devil Digimon. Attacks: Demi Dart and Evil Whisper. DemiDevimon is an Evil Digimon who plays spiteful tricks. He resembles a bat. DemiDevimon is a constant liar and, with great skills in wording, he can fool almost anyone with his sweet-sounding 'Evil Whisper' lies." read Ryoma on his D-Power.

"And since we two have the same Digimon, I don't think we have to find out more about them." said Kai.

[Analyzer:
Lopmon. Level: Rookie. Attribute: Data. Type: Animal Digimon. Attacks: Tiny Twister and Blazing Ice.

It is an extremely precious Rookie Digimon that it is a twin to Terriermon. While Terriermon has only one horn growing from its head and has a calm but robust personality, Lopmon has three horns growing from its head and has the personality of a lonely crybaby. The way it grows is shrouded in mystery, and though it can be classified as a Beast-species Digimon from its body structure, aside from that it is still not understood. Neither of them seem like "Combat Species" Digimon, but when battling, they show that they are more powerful than they appear.]

"Okay, so you want to say that Ami and you were BFF but she used you just to make herself popular? That's mean." said Nanami after Akari told them her story.

"Sure it is mean when your BFF dosen't invite you to her brithday party."

They heard a voice from behind and turned around. Behind them were Ami, Sara and Miko and their Digimon.

Ami Mizutani was a 16 year old girl with blond shoulder long hair and blue eyes. She wore a pink T-shirt and a blue skirt. Her partner was an Opossumon.

[Analyzer: Opossumon. Level: Armor. Attribute: Vaccine. Type: Beast Digimon. Attacks: Mad Balloon Bombs and Mystery Hat.]

Miko Tatsumi, a 14 year old girl, had brown hair binded in a ponytail and green eyes. She wore a grey T-shirt with the Digimon logo and black jeans. Her partner was Monodramon.

[Analyzer: Monodramon. Level: Rookie. Attribute: Vaccine. Type: Mini Dragon Digimon. Attacks: Cracking Bite and Beat Nuckle.

It has bat-like wings attached to both of its hands, but is unable to fly. Despite being a Vaccine, its personality is not so much considerably rough as it is near to brutality, giving the impression that it is a brawl-loving Digimon. Even in the Digital World, this Monodramon is in the heart of most brawls enough that it seems even Ogremon is fed up with Monodramon s tenacity. Also, the horn growing behind it is said to be its weak point, but this definitely has no degree of truth.]

Sara Uzumaki was 16 years old and had dark blue hair and pink-red eyes. She wore a simple blue T-shirt and dark blue jeans and white-blue sneakers. On her red belt was a yellow D-Power with a blue strap and ring. Her partner was Lunamon.

[Analyzer: Lunamon. Level: Rookie. Attribute: Data. Type: Mammal Digimon. Attacks: Lunar Claw and Tear Shot.
It was born from the fusion of moon-watching data. It can hear sounds from any distance with its big ears, but it is timid, so it develops attachments easily and can't stand being alone. Its attacks are lovely at first glance.]

"Not true! Well, it depends on which birthday you mean." said Akari angrily. "But be sure, I won't invite you."
"Like I would come." replied Ami.
"What do you want?" asked Ken.
"Well, we are at an Underground Arena. I want a battle." said Ami.
"If you say so. I agree." said Akari.

"I wonder where he is." said Arisa. She, Akira, BlackAgumon, Impmon and Calumon were searching for Ryo and Dracomon.
"Why do you want to find him?" asked Akira.
"I, errr, I don't know. Guess I want to find out what's wrong with both." said Arisa.
"Hey, look!" exclaimed Calumon. The two Digimon and Tamers looked at the rest of the group who was on the way to one of the arenas, together with Ami, Opossumon, Lunamon, Sara, Miko and Monodramon.
"Looks like trouble." said BlackAgumon.
"Looks like a battle. Let's watch it! Ba-Boom!" said Impmon and went to the group, followed by Arisa, Akira, BlackAgumon and Calumon.

"Huh? Where are they going?" asked Ryo as he watched Arisa and her team passing by. They didn't notice him.
"Let's find it out." said Dracomon and both followed them.

"Lighting Paw!" Kura's BlackGatomon attacked. Gatomon dodged it with her Holy Ring.
"Neko Scratch!" Gatomon tried to scratch BlackGatomon but failed.
"DigiModify, Hyper Speed activate!" Kura slashed her card. BlackGatomon became even faster then before.
"Lightning Kick!" She derived a kick at Gatomon's back.

~BlackGatomon 75 HP Gatomon 70 HP~

"Boom Bubble!" Patamon sucked in air then spited it out all at once as an air bullet.
"Demi Dart!" DemiDevimon threw a syringe filled with a toxin at Patamon's bubble. The syringe made the bubble explode before it could hit DemiDevimon. Patamon escaped it, but DemiDevimon rushed over to Patamon.
"Bat Flutter!" He used his wings to slap Patamon. He then kicked him at the ground. DemiDevimon flied now above him.
"Wanna play dart? I do. Demi Dart!" He tossed syringes at Patamon, however, he managed to escape them.

~DemiDevimon 80 HP Patamon 80 HP~

The two Lopmon's had a kind of glaring contest. Though they were identical, Kai's Lopmon had darker fur then Karin's.

"Tiny Twister!"
"Tiny Twister!"

Both generated a tiny tornado by spinning their ears like a propeller. The torando's hit each other.

"Blazing Ice!"
"Blazing Ice!"

Both spit out shots of supercooled air. However the result was the same.

~Lopmon (Kai's) 85 HP Lopmon (Karin's) 85 HP~

"This is useless." muttered Karin.
"Yeah, it's like youre batteling your copy." said Lopmon.
"Ha, I am your copy." said the other Lopmon, looking deviously at his foe.
"You ain't my copy. I'm unique." said Karin's Lopmon. She was indeed unique. She was one of the Celestial Angels.

"This is boring, let's bring it one level higher." said Kura and pulled out a Blue Card. Kai did the same, while Otoshi took out a normal Digivolution card. The Guardian's did the same.

[Shinka Theme Slash/Spiel dein Spiel by Digimon Tamers plays]

"DigiModify, Digivolution activate!"

"Devimon!"

"Patamon digivoluves to..."

Patamon got covered in an orange DigiEgg cocoon.

"Angemon!"

"Lopmon digivoluves to..."

Lopmon got covered in a light pink DigiEgg cocoon.

"Turuiemon!"

"Lopmon digivoluves to..."

The other Lopmon got covered in a brown DigiEgg cocoon.

"Wendigomon!"

MATRIX DIGIVOLUTION!

"BlackGatomon, Matrix Digivolution to..."

BlackGatomon merged with the Crystal Matrix.

"LadyDevimon!"

"Gatomon Matrix Digivolution to..."

Gatomon merged with the Crystal Matrix.

"Angewomon!"

"Turuiemon, Matrix Digivolution to..."

Turuiemon merged with the Crystal Matrix.

"Antylamon (Data)!"

"Wendigomon, Matrix Digivolution to..."

Wendigomon merged with the Crystal Matrix.

"Antylamon (Virus)!"

"LadyDevimon. Level: Ultimate. Attribute: Virus. Type: Fallen Angel Digimon. Attacks: Evil Wing and Darkness Wave." Haruka read on her D-Power. "Because of its strength, due to the incomparable purity of its Darkside Power, it is said that the limits on its spread and growth on personal computers is "0"."
"Angewomon. Level: Ultimate. Attribute: Vaccine. Type: Archangel Digimon, Attacks: Celestial Arrow and Heaven's Charm." read Kura on her D-Power. "Although it was previously classified as an Angel-type, it was confirmed as an Archangel-type because of the greatness of its abilities. As their trait, Champion angels have six wings, and Ultimate angels have eight wings. Although its personality is extremely gentle, it cannot forgive those who are crooked or evil, and it won't stay its hand from attacking until the opponent converts. Because of its soul and power, it is said to be a being like a goddess of the Digital World. Angewomon wears a Holy Ring on its left ankle, and the DigiCode on its ribbons reads "Digital Monster"."

"Devimon. Level: Champion. Attribute: Virus. Type: Fallen Angel Digimon. Attacks: The Touch of Evil and Death Hand." read Ryoma on his D-Power. "Its body is clad in jet-black cloth. Although it was originally a shining Angemon-species Digimon, it became a fallen angel when it was won over to the Dark Side and fell to the Dark Area. As proof of that, the Mark of Evil surfaced dramatically on its chest. It has a fiendish personality, but due to its cunning it is also an extraordinarily creative thinker. It is said that those who have stared into its two eyes, which shine a deep crimson, are mind-controlled and completely dominated by Devimon."
"Angemon. Level: Champion. Attribute: Vaccine. Type: Angel Digimon. Attacks: Hand of Fate and Angel Rod." read Otoshi. "It has six shining wings, and its body is clad in cloth so pure white as to be divine. It is a being of perfected virtue, and although it is called a Digimon that brings happiness, when confronting evil it will not stop attacking, with extreme composure, until the opponent is completely annihilated. On the countless times when the Digital World is visited by a crisis, it is told that it descends to lead Digimon of the same species, and Devimon, who was won over to the Dark Side, was originally of the same species. The DigiCode on its ribbons reads "Digital Monster"."

"Hmm, seems like we have different Antlyamon species. Yupp, there it is. Antylamon. Level: Ultimate. Attribute: Data. Type: Holy Beast Digimon. Attacks: Bunny Blades and Treasure Axe." read Kai on his D-Power. "It is the "Rabbit" Deva, and serves the Sovereign Azulongmon. As a follower of Azulongmon, it is the owner of a gentle spirit. It likes small things, and because it attends to them with profound tenderness, if anything appears that tries to tread on them then its personality is completely reversed, and it attacks with the "Treasure Axes" which are its arms transformed into razor-sharp axes. Once it loses its temper and starts spinning it doesn't calm down until the opponent's figure is no more."
"And your's a virus. Antylamon. Level: Ultimate. Attribute: Virus. Type: Animal Digimon. Attacks: Meditation Cure and Arm Bomber." read Karin on her D-Power. "It is able to freely manipulate the "qi" flowing within its body, allowing it to interact with softness as well as hardness, so that at times it moves flexibly as if it were flowing, and at other times it unleashes heavy blows like iron."

"Hey, are you a Deva?" asked the virus type Antylamon.
"Nope, I'm a Celestial Angel. We all three are." said Antylamon.
"Interesting." muttered Devimon.

"What's going on here?" asked Arisa as she joined her friends watching the battle between Akari and Ami. The battle took part in a smaller arena then the last one but it was big enough for Digimon who're a little bit taller then a Greymon. Ryo and Dracomon went to the other side of the arena and joined Sara, Miko, Lunamon and Monodramon.
"Ami challanged Akari to a battle. That's all we know." said Noah.

"So who's batteling?" asked Ryo the two girls.
"Ami Mizutani and Opossumon vs. Akari Inoue and BlackGatomon. We're cheering for Ami." said Sara.
"And you are?" Ryo turned to Sara.
"I'm Sara Uzumaki and this is my partner Lunamon."
"I'm Ryo Monogami and this is Dracomon."
"And I'm Miko Tatsumi and this is Monodramon."

"Okay, ready to get beaten?" asked Ami.
"No and you?" replied Akari.
"Well, since I know all your tricks, it'll be easy to beat you." said Ami and pulled out a card. "DigiModify, Matrix Digivolution activate!"

MATRIX DIGIVOLUTION!

"Opossumon, Matrix Digivolution..."

She merged with the Crystal Matrix.

"Cho-Hakkaimon!"

"Cho-Hakkaimon. Level: Ultimate. Attribute: Data. Type: Puppet Digimon. Attacks: Kyoushin Homuran and Dadada Minchi." read Ryo on his D-Power. "It is a Female Digimon clothed in a pig costume. It was originally an Angel-species Digimon, but it committed a crime that incurred the wrath of Ophanimon and was banished from heaven, and that's when it took on its current appearance. As it is normally optimistic, it doesn't mind that it was changed into this appearance, and it has a very cheerful personality, but if it gets hungry it will be voracious enough to start getting all worked up, and it will take on a ferocious personality. If it becomes starved, it will go completely out of control. Cho-Hakkaimon's "Roketto Ding weapon is equipped with boosters, and combined with its superhuman strength, its power is tremendous. Because it wants to change its ferocious personality, it seeks to reform itself by going on a journey."

[A/N: Okay I gave Opossumon the Matrix digivolution since it says Cho-Hakkaimon's an ultimate. The same will go for OmegaShoutmon.]

"I wonder what they're up to." said BlackGatomon.
"You ain't the only one." replied Akari and rose her D-Power. "Well, better feel save then sorry."

WARP DIGIVOLUTION!

"BlackGatomon, warp digivolution to..."

BlackGatomon got covered in a light purple cocoon and the Crest of Lust appeared behind her.

"Lilithmon!"

"Dracomon, do you think this might be..." whispered Ryo.
"She is. This is Lilithmon, the Demon Mistress of Lust." nodded Dracomon. Ryo took out his D-Power.
"Lilithmon. Title: Goddess of Darkness. Level: Mega. Attribute:Virus. Type: Demon Lord Digimon. Attacks: Nazar Nail and Empress Embrace. One of the "Seven Great Demon Lords", it has the appearance of a woman and represents the Moon and the sin of Lust. It is thought that it was originally an Ophanimon, but it fell from heaven and eventually became known as the "Goddess of Darkness". It confounds its opponents with its bewitchingly lovely appearance, and it is said that those who are taken in by its temptations are invariably granted death. Its reputation as the "Goddess of Darkness" is appropriate, as it offers generosity towards vice, but only cruel outrages towards virtue. The demonic "Nazar Nail" on its right arm corrodes everything it touches."

[Whispers in the Dark by Skillet plays]

"Okay, Lil, ready to beat that hussy again?" said Akari.
"I am! Ha, Nazar Nail!" Lilithmon rushed over to Cho-Hakkaimon.
"Kyoushin Homuran!" Cho-Hakkaimon swung her Roketto Ding at Lilithmon, who managed to block it.

"DigiModify, Angemon, Angel Rod activate!" Ami slashed her card. In Cho-Hakkaimon's other hand appeared Angemon's staff.
"Angel Rod!" she swung with it at Lilithmon. Lilithmon blocked it with her Nazar Nail and the staff corroded.
"DigiModify, Angemon, Hand of Fate!" Ami slashed another card.
"Hand of Fate!" Cho-Hakkaimon fired a purifiyng blast at Lilithmon which hit her. She clenched her teeth and prepeared for a counter.
"Empress Embrace!" she fired a darkness wave at Cho-Hakkaimon.
"DigiModify, Sakuyamon, Crystal Sphere activate!" Ami slashed her third card.
"Crystal Sphere!" Cho-Hakkaimon created a spherical barrier around herself to dodge the attack.
"And now, DigiModify, Angewomon, Celestail Arrow, activate!" Ami slashed a card.
"Celestial Arrow!" On Cho-Hakkaimon's hands appeared Angewomon's bow and she fired an arrow at Lilithmon.
"DigiModify, WarGreymon, Brave Shield activate!" Akari slashed her card. The arrow stabbed right into the shield and both dissappeared.

"I think I get it." said Ken.
"What?" asked Akira.
"Ami's strategy. She uses cards of Holy Type Digimon to weak Lilithmon, since Holy Type mostly surpass Dark Type Digimon." explained Ken.
"So, Akari and Lilithmon will have to figure out how to beat Cho-Hakkaimon and Ami before they lose the battle." said Arisa.
"Or before Akari loses her partner." added Noah. "Remember, in the Underground Battles, everything's allowed."

Arisa looked over to her rival. She knew Akari is a smart person and she'll figure out what to do. However, something else occupied her mind.

-What's that?- Arisa observed the walls and the roof carefully. In the corners were some kind of pipes which lead to the roof top to a kind of ball. Arisa saw the pipes before, in the previous arena, but she didn't payed much attention. Now, as the pipes started to glow in a dark crimson color she knew something was wrong here. But what?

"Evil Wing!" LadyDevimon fired countless bats at Angewomon. Angewmon escaped them.
"Darkness Wave!" LadyDevimon's arm formed into a spear and she tackled Angewomon.
"Celestial Arrow!" Angewomon fired an arrow at LadyDevimon. The holy arrow hit right at LadyDevimon's chest. LadyDevimon let out a yell of pain.
"Haven's Charm!" Angewomon attacked with a certain-kill ray of light which is packed with beauty and affection. LadyDevimon let out an another cry in agony, before she de-digivoluved to BlackGatomon. Haruka only smirked.

"Well, Dark type Digimon have no chance against Holy type Digimon." she said.

~Angewomon 60 HP BlackGatomon 0 HP~

"The Touch of Evil!" Devimon slashed at Angemon.
"Angel Rod!" Angemon used his staff to dodge the attack. "Omni Typhoon!" He then created a divine tornado. "Death Hand!" Devimon unleashed a blast of unholy energy from his hands to dodge the tornado.
"DigiModify, Power Up, activate!" Ryoma slashed a card.
"Hand of Fate!" Angemon absorbed the power of the Angel Rod and then fired a blast at Devimon. Devimon yelped in pain as the attack hit him. He de-digivoluved back to DemiDevimon.

"Well done Angemon!" cheered Ryoma.

~Angemon 50 HP DemiDevimon 0 HP~

"Asipatravana!" Antylamon (virus) spun on her axis like a tornado.
"Like I don't know this attack! Arm Bomber!" Antylamon (data) hardened her body tissue to the level of Chrome Digizoid by liberating all of the energy within her body, then unleashed a mighty blow which hit her virus counterpart.

"Let's end this! DigiModify, Cherubimon, Holy Hug activate!" Karin slashed her card.
"Holy Hug!" Antylamon summoned a cloud. "Beware the power of the Celestail Angels!"

She fired countless thunders at her virus counterpart. The counterpart yelled in pain before she de-digivoluved back to Lopmon.

~Antylamon 65 HP Lopmon 0 HP~

"And so we won." said Karin. The Celestails de-digivoluved back to Gatomon, Patamon and Lopmon.
"Nice battle by the way." said Kura.
"Yeah, can you please show us now which way to go?" asked Haruka.
"Well, the first path leads to a lake." said Kura.
"The second path leads to a labyrint." said Otoshi.
"The third path leads to a cave." said Kai. Before they could say more, they got captured by a Data Stream.

"Aw, great." said Haruka angrily.

"DigiModify, Angewomon, Haven's Charm Activate!" Ami slashed an another card.
"Haven's Charm!" Cho-Hakkaimon fired a ray of energy.
"Empress Embrace!" Lilithmon countered with a dark wave of energy. Both attacks hit into each other and faded away.
"Kyoushin Homuran!" Cho-Hakkaimon runned towards Lilithmon with her Roketto Ding ready to blow the Demon Mistress away.
"I just waited for that." said Lilithmon with a smirk on her face. She swiftly escaped the attack.
"Nazar Nail!" She slashed with her hazardous hand at Cho-Hakkaimon's back. Cho-Hakkaimon yelped in pain. Ami was ready to use an another card, but Akari was faster.

"DigiModify, Ophanimon, Eden's Javeiln!"

In Lilithmon's hands appeared Ophanimon's Javelin.

"I don't know if you're aware of it, but I was once an Angel too. An Ophanimon to be honest" she said with a smirk. "Eden's Javelin!"

She fired a purifying energy wave at Cho-Hakkaimon. Cho-Hakkaimon yelped in pain.

"And now, DigiModify, Ophanimon, Sefirot Crystal activate!" Akari slashed a second card.
"Sefirot Crystal!" Lilithmon fired ten crystals in a Sefirot formation at Cho-Hakkaimon. Cho-Hakkaimon let out an another yelp, before she de-digivoluved to Opossumon.

"Oh, no!" Ami clenched her teeth angrily. Arisa noticed that the pipes shined even in a stronger crimson red.

"Everything alright Lil?" asked Akari. Lilithmon de-digivoluved back to BlackGatomon.
"Aha. Thanks for the power bust." said BlackGatomon. She had no idea why, but she felt somehow happy using her attacks she once used as Ophanimon. Akari then glanced over to Ami. She picked up Opossumon and walked out of the arena, but not before she pushed Akari by side. Sara, Lunamon, Miko, Monodramon, Ryo and Dracomon followed her quietly.

"This wasn't the last time we batteled Akari." she muttered under her breath as they got out of the arena.
"So you're Ami?" asked Ryo. Ami turned to the boy.
"Yes, and you are?" asked Ami.
"I'm Ryo Monogami and this is my partner Dracomon." said Ryo. "Seems like you don't like that girl and her Demon Lord friend."
"Yupp, Akari and BlackGatomon just make me feel sick." said Ami.
"Well, I don't like the Demon Lords either. Maybe we can join forces?" said Ryo.
"Why not?" replied Ami with a devious smirk on her face.

What is Ami up to? And what are the pipes good for? Does the Underground Arena hide something? Stay tuned for the next episode of Digimon Tamers Underground Battles!

[Ending Song Regenbogen/3 Primary Colors by Digimon Tamers plays]

Hi guys, Takuto's speaking. Okay, maybe I still didn't overcome my feelings towards Arisa. And that'll be an another reason to battle Akira. The duo team in the DigiWorld (speaking of Dean, Veemon, Satoshi and ExAgumon) will have it a bit easier. What's real sorrow is that Arisa will be more occupied with some strange pipes in the arena, instead with the battle itself. Man! -sighs- Stay tuned for episode 3.:~Relationship Crisis, Akira vs. Takuto!~ Don't miss it!
