A/N: Simplistic reasoning behind the delay: Skyrim. Trying to resist the urge and buckle down into writing?
I leave the rest to your imagination on how that went...
Tai and Agumon have returned, and are coiled to strike back at the malicious dark master Mneod, also well renowned as Alphamon, the Eternal Ascendant. With the whole cast gathered, the curtain is about to be lifted on one of the greatest battles in the Digital Realm's long history.

Alphamon: The Eternal Ascendant
Part 4: The Gauntlet is Thrown! The Beast of 1000 Years!
Digi-Verse /Archnologia Shuttle Launch Area /9:49am
(One Piece Best Soundtrack 05)
Yamato blanched with a cold, yet visibly restrained sweat, "What did you just say, Taichi Yagami?" he said, baffled as his eyes peered over his shoulder and revealed an intense gaze at Carrmon, who also looked stunned.
Tai quickly repeated himself, as he steeled for any intervention Carrmon may order, "Carrmon, the jigs up. Tell good old... Yamato about how you've concealed the truth; that Mneod is the Eternal Ascendant." He snapped harshly.
Fully pivoting on the spot, Yamato fully pierced through a now agitated and apprehensive looking dark wolf, "You tricked me!" he bellowed in a furious shriek, fully emphasising the now taxed veins in his neck and forehead as Carrmon began to guffaw at the teen sensation's violent, unbefitting expression.
Back behind the puppeteer wolf and his 'human' compatriot, the other members of the Digidestined looked terrified; Mneod had been the one to attack Tai and Agumon in a flashy ordeal, and they hadn't suspected much in their shaken state.
Sora began stuttering as she reeled backwards, "S-s-so he's the o-one who attacked Tai?" her expression of terror quickly changed to irate fury, "T-that jerk!"
Joe tried lightening the stagnant mood of his friends before the obvious began, "Were you and Kari not calling him a hunk just a few hours ago; or does my hearing fail me at those early hours?"
Biyomon scoffed viciously and pointed her taloned wing at the young medical practitioner, "Don't say anything about Sora, or you'll answer to me, mister!" she had a furious, yet somehow elegant purr in her voice.
Kari snapped, "This really is not the time! Get yourselves ready, everyone!" she reaches out and clutched Gatomon's paw, as the two begin their mergence to the ultimate power. Her friends also prepared, readying Digivices and Crests, and clasping onto their partners in preparation to ascend by channelling power to them. A beautiful tower of light gathered around them and purged them from Carrmon's now unperturbed expression, as he looked on with distain rather than fear.
(End BGM)
Gatomon, Fusion Shinka! Celesta X!
Biyomon, Chou Shinka! Garudamon!
Gomamon, Chou Shinka! Zudomon!
Yamato gave a serpentine hiss as he and Gabumon begun their power ascension as well, Carrmon laughing lightly now at the raw, unadulterated power that encircled him, Mneod and some SkullMeramon.
Gabumon, Fusion Shinka! Metalla X!
The odds were insurmountable; a grand total of no less than four Ascendants, two Ultimate-levels, two Mergence Ultimate-levels and Tai along with his dino friend, Agumon, ready to elate the battle in what was a marvel of a gathering for the battle to come.
However, Mneod still remained blank and expressionless like a doll, ignoring and dissuading any insinuation of fear from the gathering that encircled him. Carrmon chortled, placing his finger to his mouth in an aristocratic gesture.
"Well done, Taichi Yagami." The black hearted wolf guffawed further, "But you must inform me; how is it you survived Mneod's strike before? I thought you were smashed in dust." He cocked his head back and extended a wide, condescending smirk on his canine features.
Digi-Verse /Archnologia Wastes / Time Unknown
(DBZ – Long Flashback)
Davis panted painfully, carrying Veemon on his back while Cody and a mobile Armadillomon took point across the barren wastes, walking back toward the now distant tower, that began to refract like a mirage, making Davis discredit his sanity every few steps.
Cody gaped in shock and horror, looking over to his distant left at a strange formation in the landscape, like a circular bump in the surface, similar to a caldeira, "Davis! Look at that!"
Davis remained calm and replied slowly, "They may have attacked someone else; lets take a peek."
Still brandishing Veemon like an unconscious backpack, Davis grudgingly trudged up the small hill that formed around the diameter of the crater, peering in and feeling his heart freeze, "It's Tai and Agumon! Holy shit, they look like hell!"
Davis was correct.
Within the crater at the epicentre lay to broken bodies, bereaved of breath and twitching unceremoniously. Taichi managed to divert the attention from his pain and bloodied body to spot Davis and Cody static at the far edge of the crater, releasing a wild, insatiable bellow with his eyes sealed.
"DAVIS! CODY! HELP AGUMON, I BEG OF YOU!"
Reopening his eyes slowly, he came adjacent to the stares of the two also beaten boys and their Digimon, all four struck with awe at the sight before them; the strongest pair in the group had somehow been pulverised and struck with enough ungodly force to carve a crater into the barren landscape.
Tai was still wheezing as he spoke, "The hell are you two looking at? Can't ou see Agumon's -!"
"But Tai..." Davis cut in massively, "His body seems fine except for his cuts and bruises; you... your leg and arm..."
"Broken, yeah, I figured... but nevertheless, we all look like we need a healer to-!" Tai gagged as his cheeks inflated like ballons and his mouth coughed up grievous amounts of blood, increasing his wheezing.
"A healer! Cody, do you know any Digimon that might be able to heal us?" Davis questioned with a nervous chide.
However it was Cody's calm and composed partner who answered, "Well... there are Wizardmon, Lillymon... almost all angelic Digimon..."
"Angelic! It'll have to do for now!" Veemon cried with a pained whimper as pain shot through his shoulder.
Staring at Armadillomon intently with fixated eyes, the naturally sloth bitten Digimon quickly snapped, "Shakkoumon is not gonna cut it."
Digi-Verse /Archnologia /Time Unknown
Yolei paced back and forth, investigating and tending to any wounded Digimon with basic aid, doing a clumsy but respectable hash of the treatment as all Digimon who had previously been imprisoned began to garner more and more strength in the absence of the Bio-Isotonic Generator Dimitri had decimated with apathetic ease.
The bespectacled girl finally judged she had done enough and returned to Angemon X alongside Hawkmon, "Well, these guys are cared for... should we leave them and find the others?"
The benevolent, angelic voice sounded again, "Well, first I'll locate them... even the Rookies have a faint presence I've become accustomed to in the brief time I've been with you all..." he sounded like he was backtracking as his focus divulged deeper into feeling out the energy trace in the air as Yolei grimaced.
"Mimi's son... arrogant jerk, isn't he?" she pouted while Hawkmon signalled for her to simmer down, Angemon X jolting as he found the group that had luckily huddled together, making it much quicker for him. He began to walk out toward the gargantuan rust encased gate when he felt a tug at his loincloth.
He peered down to find the Lillymon that refused to be bereft of Tanemon, "I can help you if you want... My kind developed a healing technique based off of our natural Vaccine bodies."
Before an arguement could ensue, the usually uncatchable Ascendant seemed stunned as his words were rendered recluse, the Lillymon already having shot out of the gate. She was indeed fast, the Ascendant cackled as he followed after her toward the injured gathering.
Digi-Verse /Archnologia Crater /Time Unknown
GAAHHHHHH!
"T-TAI!" the pair cried, watching their idol writhe in agony.
"D-damn it... my legs..."
"T-Tai... are you okay?"
Looking sluggishly across his shoulder, a smile managed to adorn itself upon the bloodied features of Tai, as his dear partner and friend, Agumon, had awoken.
Trying to put on his usual bravado, Tai restricted his pained features before the bleary eyed dinosaur, "Y-yeah! Of course I am, buddy! With you by my side, how could I not be?" he shot a beaming smile.
"Oh... that's good... I thought I had failed as a partner for a moment there..."
"Agumon..." the former goggle head seemed on the verge of tears, raising his steady hand and slopping it atop Agumon's paw, garnering his full attention, "I'm still here, bud, and I always will be. Neither of us ever will be alone."
SWWWOOOOMMMM!
"Down there, Lillymon!"
"Lets get to work!"
A few moments of recuperation later...
Tai felt his pain leave him, focusing on the smooth palm Lillymon had placed on his forehead gently as it flared with fanatic green energy, spreading throughout Tai's body as his broken bones and bruises healed, the others waiting for him after he had insisted on being last.
Now separated from the Ascendant stage, Dimitri approached Agumon, Faith stowed comfortably on his shoulder perch.
"By the way, what the hell happened to you two?" he asked.
Agumon still focused on Tai, and as such didn't pivot his head as he spoke, "We were attacked... and beaten by that strange human boy, Mneod."
Dimitri shot up, "Toothpick? Seriously, how did a mere human –"
"He can't be human," Agumon sparked, patting his reptilian tail on the ground to dissuade his aggravation, "He used ki. Did you see a huge flash a while ago?"
"Yeah, actually..."
Tai interjected massively, kipping up of the ground as Lillymon finished and patting Dimitri on his free shoulder, "That was Mneod throwing a stray ki blast; that I seriously doubt he charged up. There is something rather insignificant you should know about him."
Davis rubbed his eye in exhaustion, "Insignificant?"
Cody sat on Armadillomon's shell with a tired grunt, "How insignificant?"
"He's the Eternal Ascendant. Been following his energy and traced it to him, there is no doubt." Tai sped through saying this as Davis began shaking his collar.
"How the hell is that insignificant!" he cried, Veemon backing him up and wrangling with Tai's leg.
The elder Ascendant chortled darkly and twisted his head archly, "Well, now you know how significant it really is."
"Do you really think this is the time for a joke!"
Cody piqued in thought, 'Better yet, how does that little twist even make sense, Taichi...'
"Your crappy sense of humour aside..." Dimitri began, "How exactly should we deal with an enemy that Omega X couldn't beat in a one on one battle?"
Tai and Agumon had a problem there. It wasn't a matter of pride, but of morale, that prevented them from telling of their lightning fast loss to Mneod, which saw the epic battle toll of exactly one hit.
However Tai began to act with a brash plan one more, "Lets go and retrieve Yolei, and then we can wait above for Carrmon and Mneod to show themselves."
Davis glanced over to Lillymon, "There is a special task for you, if you want to help bring down this demon you told us about in the cells."
Lillymon and Tanemon lit up like a stacked set of smiling faces, "W-what do you want us to do?"
(End BGM)
Present time...
"...And sorry, but anymore and you'll have an advantage in this fight." Tai ended.
Carrmon roused with violent wrath, "I see... Lillymon, the one species that never dies away without messing with other worldly affairs."
Agumon scoffed and pointed at the black wolf, "If we let you and that monster get away, it'll be an inter-dimensional catastrophe."
The menacing guffaw sounded again, "Such is the power of a god... and his revered weapon."
Mneod remained stonefaced, 'Someone else calling me a monster... why?
WAIT! WHAT AM I THINKING; I AM ALPHAMON, NOT SOME CHILD SCUM! I CAN'T REALLY MOVE WITH THE HEADPIECE... BUT THEY WILL ALL DIE!'
"Carrmon," Metalla X violently spat with a hiss evident, "You are going to die by my hand; not to mention your little pet there."
Carrmon brushed past Mneod and raised his fist at the metallic Ascendant, "You're part of the reason I even require Alphamon's power; prophecy dictates that the Omnimon that defeated him is ever lasting in the Digital realm, and as such, it makes sense why you two should be killed. You and Tai with Agumon forge the very same Omnimon that is passed down through the endless ages –"
(Pantera - 10's)
GRRR... GRRAAHHHHH...
Wincing, Carrmon lifted his elongated palm before his face, the jewel glowing it's usual radiance in unison with Mneod's headgear, while the Eternal Ascendant began literally crying in torment through his voice, his muscles expanding as he took a resilient pace forward, much to his 'master's' dismay.
"W-what is this?" the dark wolf quivered as the very thing he feared most brushed past him, veins poignant on his head from a dangerous combination of anger, effort and mentally disturbed territory, watching as he stomped toward Tai with a death glare.
OMNI...MON
OMNIMON
OMNIMON!
TNK,TNK,TNK,TOMP,TOMP,TOMP~
His heavy, sluggishly propelled feet began to become heavy, cracking the ground while his dark, searing energy began protruding out of his back initially like a spear, before it acted strangely and began to mist around him in a veil, shielding his body.
"I think not! That Ascendant is mine to finish!" Metalla X growled, veins now appearing on his forehead out of irritation of Carrmon's plans with the Datatron Warp that was upcoming.
Leaping high into the air, the aggravated warrior clutched his right wrist and charged a beautifully metallic blue energy sphere, thrusting it at Mneod in a blind, wrathful move.
BOOM!
A suitably exquisite light engulfed Mneod and cleansed his dark aura from view as the explosion went off, the towering obelisk of dust blowing with the wind as the Chosen all vehemently sighed with relief at the end of their troubles, while Yamato's fusion counterpart still looked down with malicious anger at Carrmon, who returned the glare while trembling in fear.
The dark wolf cried out belittlingly, "You fool! You've angered him!"
Not comprehending what he meant, Angemon X stood before the gathered group on the spire peak with a stunned expression, "G-guys... do you... feel that?"
Ultima X stuttered after doing so, "Who needs to sense that... the gravity feels greater and the air is so –"
"Cold and relentless..." Celesta X finished for him, assuming a defensive stance as the dust and rubble finally cleared and ceased obscuring their view of... a dark knight?
The dark knight standing motionless in the epicentre of Metalla X's vaguely destructive path was an obscuringly tall figure, wearing a long, torn black and deep purple cloak that fluttered behind his body, revealing an almost architectural set of jet black armour, with the central chest piece forming into a small, scowling dragon and his mask being Medieval, the kind ferocious, fearless battle mongers wore. But he still possessed the same, cracked circlet of obedience on his forehead, and his black eyes with blood red iris's shook madly, scanning his surroundings.
(End BGM)
Carrmon raised his jewel desperately, beginning to guffaw, "S-so you want to fight, Alphamon?" the jewel began its usual synchronisation sequence with Alphamon's circlet, "ATTACK!"
Not taking heed, the beast stood perfectly still, maniacally chortling in a restrained, aristocratic manner as his joints twitched and his will tried to overpower the circlet.
"CARRMON... YOU ARE... A TRUE FOOL..."
"What was that?" the wolf spited.
Silphymon took a stride forward, "He can talk freely?"
"He's trying, Yolei." Agumon replied, not detaching his eyes from the frozen Alphamon.
"You never truly thought... that you had complete control, did you? You're a fool, I am the bane of kings, the world devourer, the Alpha to the Omega; in short, I am a Digital god! After... I am finished with these weaklings, and you, I will become God in the other Plain. That pitifully docile Human Realm; I shall return it to surprise and fear."
Carrmon was furious now, stomping his foot forward with authority, using the jewel to it's maximum potential as a blinding light overcame both sources, and Alphamon growled with an insidious dark accompaniment of lightning in the true sky above.
"You... fool... I am a god... you cannot do this to me!"
Carrmon chortled darkly at the positive feedback the jewel was receiving, "YOU ARE MY WEAPON, NOTHING MORE, ALPHAMON!"
But then, the wolf felt a disturbance in the fluctuation of energy emitted from the jewel, cussing as he checked, and noted a loud crack that filled the air, releasing the beast within.
(Fairy Tail OST: Fairy Law)
GRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
Alphamon's cape went against the wind, retracting itself into dark energy that blanketed and formed a sphere around the knight's body, as the chosen stared on in horror as the lightning grew rampant and restless above them, and the dark sphere began to crack a deep shade of green, releasing red bio-electricity as the cracks met and the Digivolution of the night bringer sounded out in a very deep, echoing voice of monotone hatred.
"W-What is he doing?" Celesta X screeched, shielding her face from the rising dust storm like everyone else.
"It...It can't be..." Tai shivered and quailed beneath the surging dust storm, feeling his feet retract across the ground as the screams became insidious.
Alphamon, Darkness Shinka!
The sphere shattered with intense air magnitude, revealing the horrifyingly glorious 'god' of the night. Alphamon was now garbed with a newer, but still torn robe that was decorated at the shoulders by beautifully golden epaulets that rode down from his red shoulder vanguards. His dragon decorative armour had now become more broadened, shaping around his chiselled muscles and resembling a dark fire that poured from the tighter dragon's mouth, now extended by two wings that extended across his collar bone. At his side was the greatest addition, a large broad sword that had a sabre like hand guard, while the rest of the light silver blade was sealed within his red sheath, while his now exposed face reverted to a more agitated version of his Mneod form, but with light green spikes that fell down his back rather than the usual gold. Finally, his formerly black and red eyes had vanished, leaving a blank void of white that washed across his sclera.
Angemon X continued shielding his face, peering at the strange evoloution with reverence, "That... that can't be... from a singular body, can it?"
Alpha Xcel!
(End BGM)
Carrmon blanched and trembled as he cried out for reason, "Easy... easy! Calm down, Mneod, you'll destroy the planet!"
Alpha Xcel scoffed and keeled over in laughter like a child, "Omnimon... I choose you to be the first of my victims!" his empty eyes gazed over to Tai and Agumon, and then upwards to the trembling Metalla X.
Carrmon looked confounded with overflowing anger and stringent fear, "...He's awoken... I-I need to get out of here..."
"You shall do no such thing, you pesky rodent."
Looking up, the entire group saw two blotched out areas of the skies above, the Destined with personal recollection of the two Digimon deducing from their forms that they were the Finality Vitae from hours past, Ultima X looking with murderous wrath at Sunamon.
(Kutless – Hearts of the Innocent)
"Omnimon!" with a blood curdling shriek of wrath, Alpha Xcel stunned the Chosen with his astonishing speed as he advanced in a blind bulldozer motion at Tai, not taking to kindly to Celesta X's intervention as she phased in and nudged Tai an Agumon aside as the monster cried with a pivot, his breast plate dragon's mouth flaring with a horrific shade of green and firing a ki blast at the still reeling Celesta X, the girl this time being dragged into the air by the valiant Omega X, who looked stunned as the dark foe pursued him with no tactful grace in his charge.
Volcanmon himself was amazed by the new speed and raw power of his master, but was pondering to himself on the reasoning behind the knight Digimon's outraged assault, "Sunamon... we should move before he comes after us."
"Indeed; I say we attack them, separate and then we see who gets who." The sand master chided as he faced the terrified group, ignoring Dimitri and Davis's trailing after the former 'Mneod'.
Digi-Verse/ Archnologia Palace Atrium /10:08am
Yamato stumbled and swayed lifelessly, Gabumon tailing him with a concerned snarl on his face, disappointed with the sudden elopement of his eldest friend's valour and zeal.
"Matt! Get a hold of yourself!" the Rookie pleaded, his paw being slapped away as Yamato stumbled and leant on a nearby pillar, covering half of his face with his hand.
"Gabumon... that... I could have sworn he only had a singular form... but that new one..."
"It figures that only you, no matter how meagre your intelligence, could comprehend the depth and magnitude of Mneod's power." Carrmon walked into the chamber, his gentlemanly prowess all but gone, "Go on, say it. Mneod... no, Alphamon, the living legend, is right outside massacring your allies."
Yamato shuddered as he considered what was occurring outside.
Vast explosions.
Decimation.
Craters below from the fallout.
Carrmon shook also with a boisterous guffaw, "But now, he is free. Broken from my control, anyone's control! I bet his mind has left him completely now, meaning he is a man without fear; a man that can do anything!"
(End BGM)
Digi-Verse /Archnologia Sky / Time Unknown
(Giant Stronghold, Takeoff!)
Bane of the Kings!
Alpha Xcel sneered and extended his sickly smile as he thrust his hand through the air and released dozens of dark ki balls that exploded like a chain reaction in a mine field, all the Ascendants present apart from Metalla X dodging diligently.
Lower down, chasing after Garudamon and Zudomon as they both glided and ran down the spire corridors, Sunamon appeared outside one of the destroyed sections from Mneod's violent spat.
Desert Sparda!
Slashing through the air, he shot two large sand sickles at the two Digimon, both manoeuvring in a way that protected their partner as Zudomon prepared to slam down with his war hammer.
Zulcan's Hammer!
KKKKOOOOOSSSSHHHH!
Back in the air, Volcanmon was flying downwards of the spire, tilting his head and searching for Silphymon and Shakkoumon, who had vanished as he chased them through the cloud.
Suddenly feeling energy swell above him, he glanced with apprehension, as a careless manoeuvre had made him an easy target for Silphymon, who had her hands cupped and containing pink energy.
Static Force!
FWWOOSSHH!
The Finality Vitae clenched and grunted as his back enveloped the pink fire and began absorbing it, a sinister chortle following as he eyes flared with the colour of blood.
Volcanmon, Rage Mode!
He assumed the darker, larger form he had used against Davis, and encased his arms in magma as he swivelled and began flying downward with his back, raising the magma like guns as Silphymon veered to an abrupt stop, much to his delight.
Meteor Kerberos!
Like twin machine guns, the imbued arms began firing an endless tirade of magma fists in multiple directions, Silphymon barely able to dodge and just moving on instinct as Volcanmon ceased his descent and floated in mid air, not 2 miles above the earth of the nameless planet.
Luckily for Silphymon, the anger induced beast seemed totally ignorant to Shakkoumon's presence behind him.
Kachina Mine!
Releasing the bombs, Shakkoumon gave an angelic snigger as they hit the target beautifully, ceasing the magma flow and sending him soaring upwards into Silphymon's attack.
Now glowing with a radiant pink aura, Yolei and Hawkmon's united form began to descend at the speed of sound, colliding into the enemy like a missile and forcing him into the ground below with an almighty sense of security now bestowed upon them.
Silphymon snickered, "We're lucky he's a blithering idiot."
But Shakkoumon was unperturbed, "Keep an eye out, we haven't even begun to win yet... and I have a bad feeling about this."
Scoffing, the hawkman gesturered to Shakkoumon's high sense unease, "Are you sure? Not only is he stupid, but we have a speed advantage over this dunce."
"Bitch, if anyone's the dunce, it's you."
Looking up in shock, Silphymon resembled Omega X from hours past as a single hammerfist to the cranium sent him flying like a meteor down into the desolate surface of the planet, leaving Shakkoumon in wonderment.
"Now for you, cookie jar!" before the cry had even finished, the angelic Digimon felt a violent pain in his back, looking up to find Volcanmon, who had moved so quickly, the light had refracted and kept an afterimage with a moving jaw for a second, sending him down into the surface beside Silphymon.
'What the hell... was that! His speed and timings were exquisite and meticulous, so why didn't he use it before?'
(End BGM)
Alpha Xcel vs Ascendants...
"Pahahahahaha! You're all so weak!" the Eternal Ascendant chortled, his maddened smirk somehow raising even further as he cupped a single hand behind him, the Ascendants still dodging his mine field attack as he readied it.
Crimson Lightning!
Celesta X blanched as the red stream approached and ensnared her, "You've gotta be kidding! Myostismon's attack?" she began to shriek as a dark electrical discharge flowed through her body.
Omega X immediately let his emotions get the best of him at the sound of his sister's cry, rushing forwards and grasping at the red energy, pulling with all his might and breaking it.
After breaking his sister free, he gazed up at the sniggering Alpha Xcel, "This bastard... is he even going all out? He doesn't have the look or feel of full power maintainance..."
He didn't notice Angemon X and Ultima X soar up towards him and Celesta X, the Davis and Veemon combo automatically offering unrequired help to the female Ascendant while Angemon X conferred with Omega X.
"His power is impressive... but I sensed much greater from his humanoid form. What do you think, it's clear he not taking us seriously." He said.
Omega X just shrugged, "Would you power up against a group of Ascendants that haven't even managed to get within 5 feet of you?"
Piqued at this with his advanced hearing, Alpha Xcel giggled madly, raising his palm into the air and raising two fingers, "How about we try 2% now, Omnimon?"
Ultima X hinged nervously onto his sheathed blade and assumed a battle stance in the air, "So he wasn't even using the power that form unlocked... we have to hold out; Lillymon should be preparing to help."
Celesta X shrieked a warning to the pondering Ascendant beside her, "DAVIS! LOOK OUT!"
(One Piece Best Soundtrack 02)
Bane of the Kings!
GAH!
A green hued explosion erupted in Ultima X's centre plate, the brown smoke from the blast spilling out as the blade wielding warrior began to fall downwards, trailing several pieces of golden armour chips behind him as he descended.
And violent wrath befell upon the undaunted Alpha Xcel.
Terra Beam!
Strike of the Seven Stars!
Holy Terra Beam!
All the attacks converged into a large beam of blinding, iridescent light that blinded the void expression of the dark knight, who unsheathed his Hell Blade and struck forward like a serpent's strike at the blast and felt overbearing force behind it, bellowing as the tip of his blade fired off some of his energy and dissolutioned the blast with a cataclysmic explosion, the Ascendants all retreating in search of Ultima X in the dead city beneath the cloud.
"Now for 3%, little weaklings." the dark knight spited with fury as he raised his power to the level he yelled, the brown smoke from the blast clearing from the green, translucent orb that engulfed the still smirking Alpha Xcel as bio-electricity of the darkest nature began to flare off of him, akin to Yamato's second stage Ascendancy form.
His fist swathing with dark green ki, he shot a single blast toward the cloud beneath him, tightly clenching his fist at the right moment and...
SWWWOOOOMMMMMM!
...blasting a crevice like clearing into the tundra, one large enough to show roughly 24 miles of land from the skies. He hastily shot down with increased, rampant speed.
(End BGM)
Sunamon vs Garudamon and Zudomon
Sunamon looked up at the darkened skies from the decimated corridor, and noted the large explosive calamities erupting above him, "Master, that is impressive power you unlocked... but more to the point, are you two done yet?" he sighed vehemently as he looked back over to the battered bodies of his foes, their partners screaming reassurance to them from atop their shoulders as the quivered.
Sora was rubbing Garudamon's cheek, looking deeply saddened, "I-it's okay, it's just a scrape... listen to the mother of the group, it'll be fine."
Joe was less worried, as his medical knowledge let him accumulate the fact that Zudomon was still battle worthy, "We've got to figure out a strategy... everyone is weak at something, it's the ultimate law of the human world; completely unavoidable."
Zudomon coughed a little and taunted Joe, "Trying to sound like Izzy, are you Joe?" he twinged a little as Joe gave a curt punch to his chin, even though it didn't amount to much.
Sunamon just stood there taping his foot and began muttering, "Do these kids not realise I'm still here?" he slinked his arms back and shot them forth, sending another pair of sand sickles down the corridor at the two Ultimate-levels, hearing Zudomon and Joe cry as the sand impacted.
The pair had been air lifted by Garudamon, who held one of the behemoth's horns and began to fly down, the Chosen tightly clenched to her mane as Sunamon began descending as well, throwing all manner of sand blades at them.
Tiring of the game of following them down a spire, Sunamon brushed toward the spire and planted his palm onto it, watching as the Chosen got further and further away.
Desert Girasol!
The wall cracked and withered, breaking apart into tiny micro particles of sand that burrowed unstoppably fast down the spire wall and caught up with the still moving group, surprising them as several spikes started shooting out of the sand, Garudamon getting clipped across her back and falling fast, the others holding on for their lives as they fell into the barren wastes outside of the dead city.

Next Episode: Alphamon's Pity! The Boy Called A Monster!
A/N: Oh snap! It seems the Finality Vitae are cut from a very different cloth than former member Hiemon. They actually present a challenge!
And Alpha Xcel! What a beast!
Well, after a slight delay... oh, what the hell, I dropped the ball, sorry.
This is a little shorter than the others, but I believe the action is worth it.
Next episode shall delve into history. Who is this spoken of child that empowers Alphamon with his hatred of humanity?
Due to this, I shall try my best to make it a tear jerker (If you can cry to a FanFic, that is...)
