Disclaimer: I only own Doommon, and this version of Shadowmon, someone else owns the name, I think. I don't own the other digimon characters.

A/N: Here is chapter 2, and I hope it is good. I really liked writting this one. So, read on and tell me what you think.

Chapter 2

Unexpected enemy

Daemon glided down the hallway, towards the chamber where Takato was being held. After a while, he entered the large circular room. "Well, hello boy."

"Who are you!" Takato snapped.

"Yeah," Guilmon added with a nod.

"I'm Daemon, one of the demon lords," Daemon simply stated as he glided up to Takato.

"What do you want with me?" Takato asked. Daemon gave a short laugh as he stared at the tamer.

"I want you to join us," Daemon said. Takato took a step back, and continued to stare at the digimon in front of him.

"Why would I join you," Takato said.

"I can grant you power," Daemon said with a smile. "I can give you enough power to destroy the boy known as Ryo."

"W-why would I do that?" Takato stammered.

"I know your jealousy for the boy. He loves Rika, and she loves him," Daemon said. Takato stopped and thought for a few seconds.

"You got a point," Takato said. "But, I still won't join you." Daemon frowned under his hood and just stared at the tamer. He then gave a heavy sigh as he floated closer to Takato.

"Fine then, I'll just do this the hard way," Daemon said. He lifted his hand up and placed it on Takato's forehead, right under his goggles. A sudden dark wave went over Takato's body and mind, and he collapsed into Daemon's arms. "There we go. LadyDevimon!" he called into the darkness. A few seconds later, LadyDevimon appeared beside Daemon.

"Yes Lord Daemon," LadyDevimon said in a whisper.

"Take this boy and monitor him. I want to know if he lost all of his memories," Daemon said. He then turned to Guilmon and did the exact same thing. "And take Guilmon also." LadyDevimon nodded as she lifted up Guilmon onto her shoulders, and then picked up Takato. She then disappeared out of the chamber, and Daemon turned to look at Doommon. "What are you doing here?"

"I just wanted to see the runts," Doommon replied.

"And, what for?" Daemon asked.

"Nothing much," Doommon answered. "Just felt like it I guess."

"Could you since the power in those two?" Daemon asked, turning to the exit and beginning to leave.

"Yes, they are really strong. Being the reincarnation of Shadowmon makes them so," Doommon said.

"Very good," Daemon said. "Now, its time for us to get ready for the war that is to come."

"Yes Lord Daemon," Doommon nodded. "I forgot to add that you are pretty cruel."

"And why's that?" Daemon asked with a chuckle.

"Using the boys darkness, and his jealousy as a way to manipulate him," Doommon laughed.

"I see your point," Daemon nodded. "But, it was necessary."

"Yeah, sure," Doommon simply stated. Daemon took one last look at Doommon before gliding out of the room, and towards where Takato and Guilmon were being held. He had to give the duo some new memories so that they could destroy the sovereigns. Doommon stayed in the room for while, thinking about everything.

"I wonder how things will play out," Doommon whispered as he turned to leave also. "This war will be the longest and most tragic in digimon history," he whispered. "I can't wait." With that, Doommon disappeared into the huge castle.

Rika sat on her bed, looking down at her digivice. "Don't worry gogglehead, we'll save you," she muttered.

"Rika, you need to go to bed," Rika's mom said.

"Yes mom," Rika answered. The past couple of weeks had increased the relationship between Rika and her mother. She had told her mom about what happened, and where they were going. At first her mom wouldn't let her go, but in the end, she knew she had too. Tomorrow would be a long day, they were leaving to go see the sovereigns and hopefully save Takato.

"You okay Rika?" Renamon asked as she appeared into her room.

"I'm fine," Rika simply stated as she lay back in bed and fell asleep.

"Sleep easy Rika, you need your rest," Renamon whispered. She left the room and vanished onto the top of the house. She just stood there, watching the night sky, and thinking about Guilmon and Takato. "Don't worry guys, we'll save you," Renamon muttered. She stayed up there the entire night, and just watched the stars. Thinking about what was about to happen in the next day. She just had one mission right now, to protect Rika, and try to save Takato and Guilmon. Tomorrow came really quick, and in no time, Rika and Renamon were off to the park to meet the others.

"Hey Rika!" Henry called when they were in sight of the others.

"Hey braniac," Rika said when she reached them.

"All that's left is Kazu, Kenta, and Ryo," Jeri said. Rika looked down to see Henry's hand around Jeri's waist.

"What's going on?" Rika asked.

"I'm going out with Jeri," Henry smiled.

"Well, you had to get a girlfriend didn't you," Rika smirked.

"Yep, he did," Terriermon said. "They are so gross though, kissing yesterday at the door. I thought I was going to throw up."

"Terriermon!" Henry said. "You shouldn't have stayed anyway. I sent you in remember."

"Yeah, but I wanted to have some fun," Terriermon grinned. "Now, I need to figure out a way to tease you."

"Wildcat!" a voice called. Rika turned to see the one person she couldn't stand.

"Its you," Rika growled.

"Hey, what's a matter with me," Ryo smiled. "I know you love me."

"I would rather gag myself," Rika coughed.

"Haha, very funny," Ryo sighed. Monodramon walked up beside him, and Kazu, Kenta, and their digimon came running up the path.

"Hey guys," Kenta said.

"Ready to go to the digital world and kick some serious bad guy booty," Kazu said, punching the air with his fist.

"Is everyone ready then," Leomon said.

"Wait!" a voice called from behind them. The others turned to see Impmon running towards them.

"Can I come. You are going to need all the help you can get," Impmon said. "And what better help than me."

"Yeah, like we need some puny purple demons help," Terriermon said.

"Shut it you pathetic excuse for a bunny rabbit," Impmon snapped.

"Make me," Terriermon challenged.

"Calm down guys," Henry said. "We need to get going."

"Right," Jeri nodded. "Leomon," she said as she turned to the lion digimon. He just nodded and led the digimon into Guilmon's house, and down to the gate.

"Alright everyone, go on in," Leomon said. The tamers nodded as they entered the gate and began to fall down to the digital world. Everyone had the same thought on their mind. I hope we can win.

Rika lifted her head up to find herself in a rocky canyon. "Looks like we made it," she said. "Everyone okay!" she called over her shoulder.

"Still here," Kazu said.

"I'm fine wildcat, thanks for caring," Ryo said with a smile.

"Shut up right now Ryo," Rika warned.

"I'm doing fine," came Kenta's voice.

"Yeah, we are doing okay also," Henry said from beside Jeri. Leomon stood in front of them, looking around the area. He lifted his hand and pointed off into the distance.

"That way. There we will find a gate to the sovereigns' lair," Leomon said. The others got up and nodded. They followed Leomon, their digimon right beside each of them. After a while, Rika heard a sound and turned to see a shadow on the cliff.

"What's that?" Rika asked. The others looked up to see the same shadowy figure.

"I don't know," Henry said. The figure then jumped down, finally reveling himself. It was Gallantmon.

"Gogglehead," Rika said with relief.

"Who are you," came Gallantmon's dual voice.

"What do you mean," Kazu said.

"You are here to ruin the digital world, and your leader Ryo is the worst one," Gallantmon said.

"What do you mean?" Ryo snapped. Gallantmon's shield and Lance appeared as he got into a fighting stance.

"Bring it," Gallantmon whispered.

"Let's rumble Terriermon!" Henry called.

"Ready Monodramon!" Ryo called to his partner.

"Renamon, lets go," Rika muttered. She didn't want to fight Gallantmon. But why, she always fought before, but now it was different. She was having feelings for the goggle wearing kid, and she didn't know why.

Biomerge digivolution

"Biomerge activate!" Ryo commanded.

"Monodramon biomerge digivolve to...Justimon," the android looking digimon declared.

"Biomerge activate!" Henry called.

"Terriermon biomerge digivolve to...MegaGargomon," the giant seven foot tall robot announced as he appeared inside the canyon.

"Biomerge activate!" Rika called out.

"Renamon biomerge digivolve to...Sakuyamon," the shaman digimon declared.

"Impmon digivolve to...Beelzemon Blast Mode!" the flying demon digimon said as he appeared in to the battle field.

"Mega digimon," Gallantmon grumbled. "Fine, this will be fun."

"Takato! Stop!" MegaGargomon's dual voice shouted out.

"I'll stop, when you are all dead," Gallantmon growled. He lifted up his lance, which was gathering energy at the point. "Lightning Joust!" he commanded. A giant bolt of electricity shot out, which everyone barley dodged. Gallantmon ran forward and hit MegaGargomon with his shield, knocking down the giant digimon. Gallantmon quickly turned on his heel, and sent a kick into Justimon's chest.

"Double Impact!" Beelzemon BM called as he fired two shots from his guns. Gallantmon quickly turned and blocked the attack with his shield.

"Lightning Joust!" Gallantmon called, sending another blast at Beelzemon BM. He barley dodged the attack, but came face to face with Gallantmon's foot. "Nice try fools, but you guys are pathetic."

"I'll show you," Sakuyamon said. "I don't want to fight you, but I have no choice. Spirit Strike!" Four fox spirits were shot out and towards Gallantmon. When the attacks hit, they didn't even leave a scratch. "Damn, that's impossible," she muttered.

"You're a data digimon, so what did you expect," Gallantmon laughed. Sakuyamon jumped up and swung her staff at Gallantmon, but was caught by the lance.

"How boring," Gallantmon said. As they continued to stay like that, Rika and Renamon could feel something different.

'They are being controlled,' they both thought. "Stop it! It's me, Rika and Renamon!" Sakuyamon said, trying to get through Gallantmon's thick skull.

Inside his orange sphere, Takato was looking at Sakuyamon with a concentrated look. "Rika," Takato muttered. "Sounds familiar."

"Yeah, and so goes Renamon," Guilmon whispered. "But we can't think about that, we need to stop them. They will destroy the digital world."

"True," Takato nodded.

"Then, let's finish this!" Gallantmon called. He kicked Sakuyamon hard into the ground, causing her weapon to fall from her grasp.

"Gargo Missle!" MegaGargomon commanded as he launched the two missles on his shoulders towards Gallantmon.

"How lame," Gallantmon yawned. He quickly jumped high in the air, dodging the explosion from under him.

"Voltage Blade!" Justimon called. His right arm turned into an electric blade and he clashed it against Gallantmon's lance.

"Is that it," Gallantmon taunted.

"I won't let you beat me Takato," Ryo growled from inside his sphere. "I have no choice but to kill you."

"Then bring it on metal head," Gallantmon challenged. He pushed Justimon with his foot, and sent a roundhouse kick into Justimon's head, sending him to the ground.

"Ryo!" Kazu called.

"I'm scared," Kenta shivered as he saw Gallantmon walking towards them. MegaGargomon turned around to face the retreating digimon.

"I can't believe Takato is so strong," Henry said from inside his green sphere.

"Well Henry, you better believe it. Takato is knocking us around like a rag doll," Terriermon whined. Justimon was trying to get up a few feet away, and the same for Beelzemon BM. Sakuyamon had not moved in a while, her weapon still lay on the ground. She was useless, and she couldn't fight Gallantmon, and she didn't want to. She now knew he was being controlled by something or someone.

"Why?" Rika cried from inside her blue sphere. "Why can't I fight? I always wanted to fight, but I don't want too anymore. Not against Takato, not against someone I might love. No, I can't love, not after my father. Takatos also being controlled, maybe that's why I don't want to fight either. I just don't know!"

"Rika..." Renamon whispered. Sakuyamon lifted her head to see Gallantmon approaching Kazu and Kenta.

"I wont let you hurt my friends. You Takato, are no longer one of my friends," Kazu challenged.

"Oh, what a shame," Gallantmon laughed. There was a glowing sensation around Kazu and Guardramon.

"I will defeat you!" Kazu called.

Biomerge Digivolution

"Biomerge activate!" Kazu called.

"Guardramon biomerge digivolve to...Machinedramon," the giant machine digimon announced. Everyone looked at him with awe, and Kenta pulled out his digivice.

"He's Machinedramon, a digimon on the mega level. His body is composed of different machine digimon parts. His only reason for living, is to destroy. His intelligence and power overwhelm his opponents. His Giga Cannon can destroy anything in his path," Kenta announced.

"This is cool," Machinedramon said in his duel voice. "Now Takato, try this on for size. Giga Cannon!" he commanded. Two giant blasts shot out of his cannons, and pushed Gallantmon back onto the ground.

"I'll help too," Jeri called. "I'll make Takato pay for hurting Henry and other digimon. He is no longer one of my friends!"

Biomerge Digivolution

"Biomerge activate!" Jeri commanded.

"Leomon biomerge digivolves to...SaberLeomon," the lion digimon said. "Twin Fang!" he commanded. A barrage of needles from his fur shot out and pierced through Gallantmon's armor.

"Time to end this," MegaGargomon announced. A handful of guns began to make themselves known, and targeted Gallantmon. "Mega Barrage!" A barrage of different weaponry were shot out and all hit their mark. They could all hear the scream of Gallantmon.

"Gogglehead," Sakuyamon whispered. "Why can't I get him out of my head." As the smoke cleared, all they could see was a dark energy surrounding Gallantmon. He lifted his head and smirked.

"Finally. It's time," Gallantmon whispered. "Gallantmon dark digivovles to..." The others watched as Gallantmon began to change and look totally different. He had blades on his black body, and sharp claws. His eyes became piercing red, and he had the mark for hazard on his chest. "Shadowmon!" he finished with a roar. The true fight had begun.

To be continued...
