Previously on Digimon Frontier: Chaos Rising
It's complete chaos in Breezy Village when Hederamon and Foliamon were wreaking havoc all over the place. Beautymon tried to stop them, but even she was having trouble holding her own. Later, Chrysanthemon found the Spirits of Wind hidden inside a statue. But it was a good thing Zoe got to them first. She Spirit Evolved into Kazemon and took care of Chrysanthemon and her servants easily. But just when the butterfly was about to help Chrysanthemon come to her senses, wouldn't you know it? Malevomon finally shows up, ready to cause some more trouble. Uh-oh, Kazemon's in big trouble.
So, without further ado, here's chapter ten!
Evil Shows His Face
Normal POV:
"PYRO TORNADO!"
Large, hot fireballs appeared on Agunimon's fist as his entire body was surrounded by the scorching heat. He extended his arms to his side and started spinning around. The faster he rotated, the bigger the fireballs on his fists grew. Soon, a fiery tornado engulfed the Warrior of Flame. Once he was ready, the Warrior of Flame spun toward the closest Digimon towards hum.
The blazing hot attack collided against a nearby Tyrannomon. The Champion grunted in pain as the heated attack left behind several burns on his body. The red walking lizard collapsed on his back and remained motionless. Like a pinball bouncing off a bumper, Agunimon ricocheted off of the defeated dinosaur and into another Tyrannomon. The reptile beast grunted in agony as his body fell to the ground.
"DINO BLAST!" A third Tyrannomon shouted from a few meters away from the fiery tornado with a certain Legendary Warrior inside.
He unleashed a barrage of fireballs at the rotating Agunimon. But the flamed spheres weren't strong enough to stop or slow down the Legendary Warrior. The fireballs either bounced off of the fiery cyclone, or it added more heat to the tornado, making it more powerful. And thanks to Tyrannomon's contribution, Agunimon's Pyro Tornado has doubled in size and heat energy. All it took was one hit from the rotating attack, and the dinosaur-type Digimon was flat on his back. His body burst into bits when he was completely out of energy.
Agunimon stopped his attack as he slid his feet on the dirt. He then turned his attention to his next opponents, which happened to be another pair of four legged dinosaurs He pushed off towards a couple of growling Monochromon, running at them at full speed. With the building momentum on his side, Agunimon was ready to take both Digimon at the same time.
"Volcanic Strike!" The horned beasts roared.
The two Digimon opened their mouths and shot large fireballs at the Legendary Warrior. Agunimon juked left to avoid one of the blasts and spun to the right to avoid the second. He also jumped in the air to avoid a few more oncoming fireballs. But just when he landed on the ground, a fireball exploded near his feet, filling the spot with thick smoke. The Monochromon examined the smoky cloud in front of them and began to chuckle.
"Hey, what are you clowns laughing at?" A voice spoke.
The two dinosaur Digimon ceased their laughing when they saw a dark silhouette standing inside the smoke. They gasped in shock as Agunimon stepped out of the debris unscathed. The Warrior of Flame sprinted towards the two Monochromon. Large bursts of flame emerged on both of his fists. The Monochromon launched a few more of their Volcanic Strike attacks at the Legendary Warrior, but Agunimon was way too quick. He dodge left and right as he closed the distance.
Agunimon finally got within striking range and gave one Monochromon a fiery punch to the face, knocking the oversized Digimon to the ground. The Warrior of Flame turned around to face the second Monochromon. Agunimon could see the four legged dinosaur's cantankerous glare as he scrapped the ground with his front foot, like a raging bull ready to charge at a matador.
"Slamming Horn!" Monochromon screamed as he charged at the humanoid fighter.
The Warrior of Flame grappled the monster by his horn. The two Digimon displayed tremendous strength, pushing each other as hard as they could, trying to get their opponent off balance. So far, it's been nothing but a standstill. Neither the dinosaur, nor the Legendary Warrior were about to give their opponent an inch. Both Agunimon and Monochromon were pushing each other to their limits, trying to get the other to back down.
But as the seconds pass, Agunimon began to lose energy. His strength in his pushing decreased, which Monochromon took full advantage of. The Legendary Warrior stumbled onto one knee, trying to hold off the beast off. The dinosaur Digimon continued to apply pressure on the Legendary Warrior. Monochromon's grin grew wider when he realized victory was within his gasped.
"Hehehehe!" The mind controlled dinosaur chuckled.
"Ugh... can't... hold on..." grumbled Agunimon as he was down to the last of his strength.
"Diamond Cutter!" A valiant voice shouted.
Agunimon's head popped up at the sound of Swiftmon yelling his attack. The sound of his swords quickly slicing through the enemy made Agunimon's eardrums go crazy. In a matter of seconds, the warrior-like Digimon reappeared behind the ferocious Monochromon, still spinning his weapon around. Even though the swordsman wasn't watching his opponent, the look in his eyes told the fiery Digimon he's the victor in this fight.
The Warrior of Flame let out a quick gasp as he could feel the weight of the dinosaur monster being slowly lifted off of him. Monochromon turned his sharp horn towards the swordsman and was ready to strike. But when Swiftmon placing his weapon back in his sheath, the four legged beast screamed in pain as his giant body turned into shredded bits. Swiftmon marched toward Agunimon and helped him back to his feet.
"Are you alright?"
"Yeah! Thanks, Swiftmon." The Warrior of Flame said, wiping the dirt off himself.
"Don't let your guard down." The second-in-command reminded. "Our mission is far from over."
"Right!" complied Agunimon.
He got into defensive position as he observed the scene around him. Large numbers of Tyrannomon and Monochromon were lying on the sand, either unconscious, exhausted or on the verge of being deleted. On the other hand, that was only a fraction of the army sent to destroy Breezy Village. Agunimon looked back up and saw more strong Digimon approaching. Every time they take out one Monochromon or Tyrannomon, it seems as if three more show up to take its place. Agunimon lets out a 'can this get any worse' kind of sigh.
"Stand your ground! Things are about to get tough." Swiftmon commanded, swinging his sword and obliterating a couple more Monochromon.
Agunimon followed up by launching a couple of fireballs at the enemy. As he finished throwing his attacks, he looked up at the clear blue sky above. He began to see dark clouds forming up above. It shrouded the battlefield in darkness. Lightning crashed into the ground and thunder sounds echo throughout the area. These clouds weren't your average rain clouds back in the Human World.
"Swiftmon, what's going on?" asked Agunimon. Swiftmon looked up at the sky and also noticed the clouds in the sky.
"I got a bad feeling about this..." He murmured.
"What? What's wrong?" But instead of answering Agunimon's question, he turned his attention back towards the forest.
"What's taking those two so long?" He wondered. "They should've recovered the Spirits by now?"
"Maybe we should go back to help them."
"No. We have to stay and fight. Once when Beautymon gives us the signal, then we'll retreat. Understand?"
"Alright." answered the Legendary Warrior, with less enthusiasm.
He turned back towards the battleground and saw more Tyrannomon and Monochromon approaching the forest. He was about to get into his usual fighting stance, when his eyes caught three energy beams heading his way. He dove to the side to avoid getting hit by the blast. Agunimon rose to his feet to see his next opponent.
"Destroy them all!" A giant triceratops ordered. It had thick armor shell shielding his body and head. The sharp horns on the front had red stripes in them.
"Uh-oh! We got even more company!"
"Damn, I knew this was way too easy..." Swiftmon groaned.
"What is that thing, Swiftmon?" growled Agunimon.
"Triceramon..." The swordsman murmured.
Digimon Analyzer:
Name: Triceramon
Level: Ultimate
Attacks: Tri-Horn Blast; Mega Slam
Description: Triceramon is one of the most ruthless Digimon that ever lived. The armored shell he wears is said stronger than any other Digimon's armor. But his defense pales in comparison with his offense. His Tri-Horn Blast fires energy shots from his horns, making it three times more difficult to dodge.
"Careful, he's a lot stronger than the ones we've been fighting." said Swiftmon.
"Thanks for the warning!" The Warrior of Flame mumbled sarcastically. "Anything else I should know?"
"Yes. It's only going to get tougher than here! So, be on guard and don't take your opponents lightly!"
"Oh, that's just great." grumbled Agunimon. He was getting tired from all the fighting earlier. Still, he hadn't forgotten his mission. "More powerful Digimon. It's what I've always wanted."
"Is that so? Well, look no further. You're about to get your wish. See for yourself." said Swiftmon, pointing his sword towards his left.
Agunimon looked towards the direction where Swiftmon was pointing. There were more giant Digimon approaching the two warriors. They looked like Tyrannomon, but with black skin, green plates on its back and red marks scared across his arms, legs, and tail. What separates them from the Champions are that they're bigger and have a much nastier attitude.
"Whoa! They're huge! Are those Tyrannomon too?"
"Not quite." Swiftmon approved. "Those are called DarkTyrannomon."
"DarkTyrannomon?" Agunimon gulped.
Digimon Analyzer:
Name: DarkTyrannomon
Level: Ultimate
Attacks: Dino Fire; Iron Tail
Description: And you thought Tyrannomon was bad. That guy's nothing, compared to DarkTyrannomon. It is said that a computer virus transformed this cuddly creature, making him one nasty Digimon. His attacks not only got stronger, but his personality did a one-eighty. Don't believe me, try taking his Dino Fire attack head-on.
"Like you said, my boy. It's what you've always wanted." Swiftmon chuckled a bit.
"It's called 'sarcasm.' Ever heard of it?" argued the Legendary Warrior.
"Save the jokes for later! We got hold them off and give the girls time to find the Spirits. I just hope they're alright!"
"I do too." Agunimon said, glancing back at the forest.
"Zoe..." He said to himself.
"Come on, Agunimon! Let's go!" Swiftmon ordered, unsheathing one of his swords and charging at a nearby Triceramon.
"Right!" Agunimon said, turning his attention back to the battlefield. Suddenly, a large amounts of Fractal Code surrounded the Legendary Warrior's body. Inside the long steams of data, Agunimon began to change forms.
"Slide... EVOLUTION!"
Finally, the large body of Fractal Code disappeared, and a new Legendary Warrior emerged. Underneath the golden armor covering his mouth, the winged dinosaur grinned like he was ready to turn up the heat. Finally, the Beast of Flame spread his orange wings out wide and unleashed a thunderous roar that made the entire desert shake.
"BURNINGGREYMON!"
A massive earthquake struck the entire village, knocking down almost every Digimon to the ground. Bokomon and Neemon grabbed a hold of a nearby tree and hung on tight as the violent tremor progressed. A sick Chrysanthemon fell on all fours while the composed Beautymon stood her ground successfully. Kazemon somehow managed to stay on her feet, but almost lost her balance a few times.
The Warrior of Wind scanned the area, searching for anything peculiar. She looked towards the sky and saw dark clouds forming in the sky, covering the gardens with shadows and obscurity. In a matter of seconds, the entire village was shrouded in pitch darkness. Large number of lightning bolts struck the ground and numerous trees in the area. The trees burst into flames as it fell straight into the ground in front of the villagers.
"This is not good! THIS IS NOT GOOD!" Neemon ran around panicking.
"What's happening?" Bokomon yelped. Kazemon looked around the area again and could sense the presence of an evil Digimon nearby. She checked back with Chrysanthemon, who has a terrified look on her face. It looked like she had just seen a ghost. Either that, or something even more frightening than a ghost.
"Chrysanthemon, what's going on?" The Warrior of Wind asked the flower-type Digimon
"He... He's here." She said softly.
All of the sudden, thick clouds of smoke filled the area, blinding the Legendary Warrior's vision. Kazemon turned to find her friends, but the dark fog made it almost impossible for her to find Bokomon, Neemon or any of the villagers. On the other hand, the Warrior of Wind could feel the evil aura getting stronger and more malicious.
"Hahahaha!" A pitchy voice laughed. Kazemon looked up and noticed a black imp floating above the village. He flew around and around like a bat in a cave as he continued to speak. "Ladies and Gentlemon! It is the moment you've all been waiting! He's the Creator of Chaos, The Master of Disaster and the Emperor of the Digital World! I give you..."
"A headache..." The voice of Beautymon heckled the imp.
"Be quiet, you!" The angry Rookie growled. "As I was saying, he is the most powerful Digimon in the world, the Ruler of Ruination, and the..."
"Hey look! A giant flying stuffed animal!" Neemon aimlessly blurted out, causing the imp to suddenly fall to the ground, frustrated and extremely annoyed. He quickly got up to his feet and glared at the retarded rabbit.
"Hey! Shut up! Who are you calling a stuffed animal? Show me some respect you insignificant piece of..."
"Ooh! And it talks to!" Neemon gasped.
"Be quiet!" yelled the monster, pulling out a miniature bomb out of the black backpack.
"Take this! MINI BOOMER!"
He heaved his tiny explosive at Neemon and Bokomon. The bomb bounced and rolled on the ground towards the two rookies. It exploded a few feet short of its target, but it did knock the two Digimon back to the ground. The imp placed his hands on his hips and started laughing hysterically. Seeing others' pain and misfortune is always amusing.
"Bokomon! Neemon!" Kazemon cried. She leered back towards the imp Digimon, with her fist clenched tight. "Hey! Those are my friends! Who do you think you are?"
"Oh, that's right." The devil smirked. "How rude of me... I've forgotten to introduce myself! I am his majesty's most faithful servant! But you can call me... Sinistromon!"
"Sinistromon?" said Kazemon.
"Yeah, that's right! And you must be one of them Legendary Warriors, huh?" Sinistromon asked, observing Kazemon's features. He flew in a little closer to get a good look at her. He reached towards her long purple hair, but an annoyed Kazemon swatted Sinistromon's arm away.
"Hehe, for a cute Digimon, you got a lot of attitude. I like it. I like it a lo..." Sinistromon turned his attention towards another Digimon standing behind the Legendary Warrior of Wind. He flew past Kazemon and glided towards the other female Digimon with a smirk on his face.
"Well, now... What do we have here?" He asked, slowly approaching olive haired warrior. Beautymon gazed into Sinistromon's eyes before turning her head away I disgust.
"Oh great, you again..." She grumbled.
"Hello, Beautymon." Sinistromon grinned.
"Sinistromon. Been a while... I haven't seen your ugly face in a long time." Beautymon said unenthusiastically.
"Too long, if you asked me. But enough games! I want my rematch! Right here, right now!"
"Silly child... what rematch?"
"Don't play with dumb with me! You know exactly what I'm talking about! That rematch you owe me after you humiliated back in the Continent of Darkness. It was one of the worse days of my life!"
"What are you talking about?" Beautymon curiously asked. "I don't owe you a rematch. It'll only be a waste of time."
"Grrrr! You think, you're so tough, huh?"
"So what if I am?" She giggled before sighing again with disappointment. "Besides, why are you complaining? If I recall you and your master were the ones that walked away with the Spirits of Darkness..."
"That is beside the point, you crazy wackjob!" hollered Sinistromon. "Lord Malevomon was extremely frustrated at me for failing to destroy the Digimon Battlefront! And for that, the master put me through a hellish beat down with a few of his nastiest fighters! It was humiliating, I tell you! HUMILIATING!"
"Oh poor baby, I guess your life is tough." giggled Beautymon.
"Sure, rub it in. And now that you're here, Beautymon, vengeance will be mine!" Sinistromon took a huge leap into the air and pulled out a couple of small bombs out of his black backpack.
"MINI BOOMER!"
He heaved his small explosives towards the olive-haired warrior. The bombs exploded on the ground, filling the area with smoke, flames and debris. When the smoke cleared, Sinistromon could see Beautymon standing in the same spot, unfazed and unscathed. Covering her mouth with her sleeve, she gave the annoyed imp an arrogant wink.
This made Sinistromon very angry. He reached into his backpack and pulled out two handfuls of miniature explosives. He threw them as hard as he could towards the female warrior. Beautymon tilted her head side to side to avoid the first two bombs. However, she noticed another bomb coming from her right side. Instinctively, she leaped out of the vicinity and watched as the bombs went off like a bunch of firecrackers. Upon landing smoothly on the ground, her incomprehensible look changed into an irritated glower.
"Sinistromon..." She warned the little devil. "I'm not in a good mood. So, if you don't mind, get lost! Because if you don't, I'll..."
"Mini Boomer!" cried Sinistromon as he took out more explosives out of his backpack and heaved them once again towards Beautymon. She put her hands in front of her face as the bombs exploded all around her, covering Beautymon with a thick cloud of smoke. Sinistromon fell down to the ground and rolled with laugher.
All of the other Digimon, including Kazemon, gasped upon seeing the thick smoke surrounding the female Digimon. Everyone couldn't help but wonder the status of their third-in-command. Finally the smoke had cleared, revealing the Champion level Digimon with her beautiful white dress covered with dirt, mud, debris, rubble and burn marks. Sinistromon continued to roll on the ground laughing like a child; he failed to see Beautymon, with a small smudge on her elegant face, towering above him.
"You... little... BRAT!" Beautymon screamed, causing the entire village to shake. Kazemon was surprised at olive haired creature's outburst.
It's extremely rare for Beautymon to display any kind of emotion. Then again, messing up Beautymon's appearance is one way to get yourself killed. Sinistromon ceased his laughing when he noticed Beautymon's shower hovering above him. He hastily got back to his feet as Beautymon stuck her right hand in front of the tiny Digimon.
"My beautiful dress! My perfectly sown dress, the dress that makes every Digimon gasp with admiration... RUINED! YOU HAVE CROSSED THE LINE! BEAUTIFUL BEAM!" Beautymon fired her signature beam towards Sinistromon. The imp immediately took to the skies, barely evading the attack. After a couple more dodges, he grinned at the female warrior.
"Finally, you decided to get serious, huh?" He smirked. "Very well then... so will I! Double Ganger!"
Sinistromon's body becomes outlined in gray and then glows in white. During the process, the little monster was able to create four multiple copies of itself. Each clone of Sinistromon surrounded Beautymon. The female Digimon figured she was outnumbered, but that still didn't faze her. She noticed each copy of Sinistromon taking out a couple of miniature bombs. Beautymon planted her feet on the ground and waited for the enemy to strike.
"Hey Ugly!" One Sinistromon called out, drawing Beautymon's attention.
"Speak for yourself, you ugly little..."
"Mini Boomer!" A second copy yelled, heaving one of his bombs towards the distracted Beautymon.
Luckily, she saw it coming in her peripheral vision. She leaped out of the way to the blast. But when she landed back on the ground, she saw two more bombs coming her way. Again, she spun like a ballerina to avoid the first attack and performed a series of flips to avoid the rest. She backflipped into the forest, with the rest of the copies of Sinistromon following right behind her.
"Miss. Beautymon!" Floramon shouted.
"Oh great, where is she of to now?" complained Kazemon. "I swear, she does this every time. Whenever someone calls her the 'U-Word', she always has to..."
Suddenly, a lightning bolt struck the ground between her and the extremely ill flower-type Digimon on the ground. The clouds in the sky became darker and the bizarre feeling in the atmosphere has returned. Kazemon could feel her spine tingling in fear. Whoever was coming, not only was a Digimon unlike any other, but also more powerful than she could imagine.
But then she turned towards Chrysanthemon. Her eyes were red, puff and covered in tears. Her breaths were rapid and shallow. Chrysanthemon tried getting back to her feet, but some kind of invisible force caused her to stumble back to the ground. The flower Digimon stayed on all fours, waiting for a certain Digimon to appear.
"What's going on Chrysanthemon?" asked Kazemon.
"He's here..." The flower creature answered. The look of fear in her eyes, all of the sudden, had changed. A huge grin appeared from one side of her cheek to another as she started to laugh psychopathically.
"My master is here! Look!"
She pointed towards the thick cloud of smoke a few feet in front of her. Kazemon turned and saw a shadowy figure inside the cloud. The silhouette took a couple steps forward towards the two female Digimon.
The shadows had lifted, revealing the Master of Disaster, Malevomon.
He had black dress shoes with a dark spherical emblem on the front on each footwear. He also wore black pants with a small patch on both kneecaps. He also had a white dress shirt with a black vest, with a long, red scarf around his neck. A dark coat with a high collared cape draped down to his lower back. There was a small slit in the end of each of the emperor's sleeves and white gloves on each of his large hands. Lastly, he had a large silver mask covering his entire face only revealing his mouth and horrifying eyes. His eyes locked on the trembling Warrior of Wind.
"Hello... my child." He smirked.
"It can't be! Are... Are you... Malevomon?" Kazemon stuttered.
"Show some respect, you insolent little pest!" Chrysanthemon ordered as she got back to her feet. Still weak from the poison in her body, she wobbled towards her master and stood by his side.
"You will refer to him as Lord Malevomon! Isn't that right, master?" She asked, with her lovely eyes.
Malevomon gazed into Chrysanthemon's captivating eyes, causing him to smile. He cupped her chin with one hand while placing his other hand on her cheek. He chuckled softly to himself and noticed Chrysanthemon closing her eyes and puckering up her lips. He replied with the same suit, ready to return his subordinate the favor.
But just when his lips was about to make contact with hers, he pulled his head back and gave the flower Digimon a vicious backhand slap to her face. The powerful attack knocked Chrysanthemon back to the ground. Tears filled her eyes as she rubbed her swollen cheek. Malevomon walked towards the fallen female Digimon and viciously stomped on her petite body repeatedly.
Kazemon watched helplessly as the evil emperor continue to trample on Chrysanthemon. As much as she wanted to help, she couldn't move. Her body was completely stiff. She was too afraid to intervene. Malevomon is a violent creature and she's completely terrified of what he can do to her. It wasn't until she saw the malicious ruler grab the back of Chrysanthemon's neck and lifted her high off the ground. Kazemon snapped back into reality and focus on her new opponent.
"Hey! Leave her alone, you big brute!" She screamed, zooming towards Malevomon. "Hurricane Wave!"
Swirling pink tornadoes appeared out of her fingertips. When she got within range, she threw her tornadoes at Malevomon. However, the tornadoes bounced off the evil Digimon, leaving him practically unscathed. Malevomon glowered back at the Warrior of Wind. He stuck his hand out towards the human butterfly. She felt some kind of unseen force stopping her in midair. The Legendary Warrior tried to shake free from Malevomon's psychic powers, but to no avail.
"Fly away, weakling..." Malevomon snickered. He swung his hand towards the right, which pushed the helpless Kazemon also towards the right. She crashed hard into a nearby tree. Her body goes limp as she slumped to the ground.
"Kazemon!" Bokomon cried, running towards the fallen warrior. Malevomon chuckled to himself for a few seconds before turning his attention back towards the gagging Chrysanthemon.
"M... Master, what... what are you doing..." chocked the female Digimon.
"You disappoint me, Chrysanthemon." Malevomon answered. "I ordered you to retrieve the Spirits..." He tightened his grip around Chrysanthemon's neck. "... and you did not. And I also ordered you to destroy the humans..." He then lifts Chrysanthemon up and slams her down to the ground. "... and you failed!" The flower Digimon winced in pain upon impact. Her body went numb and her face was a huge mess.
"Forgive me, my lord..." Chrysanthemon faintly spoke. "I... I tried... but that human was too strong for me..."
"Pity... then again, I expected no less from a weakling like you." Malevomon spoke. Chrysanthemon felt a thousand daggers piercing her fragile heart. She got back to her feet and hobbled towards the evil emperor.
"My Lord... you surely don't mean that..."
"You're a failure, Chrysanthemon. I refuse to work with failures. They are better off dead."
"Please... give me another chance. Now that you're here, we can destroy the humans and take over the world... together. Please, master... what do you say?"
"Hmm..." Malevomon pondered, placing a hand on his chin.
He took a long look at the exhausted and beaten Chrysanthemon. Malevomon then turned his attention to all of the villagers still in the vicinity and then back to Kazemon, who was still on barely conscious on the ground. He sighed, turning back towards his subordinate.
"I'm sorry." He said. "You're right Chrysanthemon. I should be more sympathetic. After all, you're one of my hardest workers and strongest fighters. Not to mention the garden you grew in my castle was beyond extraordinary." His complement caused the flower Digimon to finally smile.
"Th... Thank you, my lord." She bowed.
"And now, let me reward you for your..." A fiendish grin appeared on the wicked emperor's face. He pointed his hand towards Chrysanthemon. "... grateful services."
But upon hearing those words, Chrysanthemon's smile had dropped. A black sphere of energy started to form in the palm of Malevomon's hand. The flower Digimon's eyes began to water as she subconsciously shook her head. Her mind was screaming at her, but her body was frozen like a statue.
"Malevolent Onslaught..."
Finally, Malevomon shot the energy ball towards the terrified female Digimon. Chrysanthemon tried to run away, but it was too late. The energy ball increased in sized and engulfed the poor Digimon's entire body. Malevomon grinned at his creation.
"What... What's going on?" A Mushroomon asked.
"I got a bad feeling about this!" Bokomon spoke.
Meanwhile, Kazemon managed to regain consciousness. After shaking off her mild headache, she noticed the dark energy shape in front of her.
"Chrysanthemon?" She called as she rose to her feet. But before she could take a step further, Kazemon could hear voices.
"No! Master, please! Spare me! I'm begging you! Don't do it... NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Breezy Village was covered with Chrysanthemon's screams of agony. The villagers gasped in fear, frightened of what's happening to their beloved Chrysanthemon. Malevomon, however, continued with his maniacal laughter. He snapped his fingers, and the ball of energy faded away.
Kazemon checked the spot where Chrysanthemon once stood, but she was gone. All that remained were the two pink flower head ornaments that hung on the flower-type creature's head. Kazemon and all of the other Digimon felt tears trickling down their faces. The Warrior of Wind glared at Malevomon, who had already ceased his hysterical outbursts. He turned towards the Floramon and Mushroomon in the village and smiled.
"BOO!"
"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" That one word was enough to get the other Digimon to disperse into the forest, leaving Bokomon, Neemon and Kazemon all by themselves.
"You monster!" roared the Warrior of Wind. "Who do you think you are?" Malevomon slowly turned until his eyes locked on to Kazemon's. Even though her eyes were covered by her silver visor, he could see right through them and he noticed the fear.
"How dare you treat Chrysanthemon like that? You sick freak! You'll pay for this!"
"Your empty threats doesn't concern me my child." Malevomon sneered. "But forgive me, I haven't properly introduced myself. I am, Malevomon, but you can call me the Digimon Emperor if you like. And when I collect all of the Legendary Spirits, this world will be mine! And every creature will become my salves for all eternity."
"That's some wacko dream you got there, tough guy." Kazemon growled.
"It's not a dream, it's my destiny. You have a couple of the Legendary Spirits I seek. Now be a good girl and hand them over. If you cooperate, I will spare your lives. I'll even leave this disgusting village alone. All you had to do is..."
"Never!" Kazemon replied.
"I'm sorry. I wasn't making myself clear. I'm not asking, I'm demanding you to give me the Spirits!"
"No way! There are a lot of innocent Digimon counting on me! I can't let them down! If you want to get my Spirits, you're gonna have to fight me!"
"Hahahahahahaha! Please, dear. You have no idea what you're up against?"
"I'm not afraid. I can take you!" declared Kazemon.
"Foolish girl. My powers are too great. I can do things beyond your imagination, things you only see in your wildest dreams... and darkest nightmares. You don't stand a chance."
"We'll see about that!" The Legendary Warrior leaped high in the air and flew towards Malevomon. She stuck her two hands out in front of her, creating swirling pink tornadoes on her fingertips.
"Hurricane Wave!" She yelled, throwing the tornadoes at the evil Digimon.
Kazemon's attack nail Malevomon in the face, but he didn't budge. The pink tornadoes either bounced off the creature's face or blew his hair back a little bit. Kazemon was shocked that her attack didn't do any damage.
"Hmmmm... that's such a nice breeze." Malevomon snickered. "Come now, my child. You're a Legendary Warrior. I expect more of a challenge, but so far, I'm not impressed. Is this the Warrior of Wind's true power, or are you just holding back?"
"Shut up! You haven't seen anything yet!" Kazemon put her hands on the ground and, with her legs spread out wide, she spun them around in the air.
"Tempest Twist!" She hollered, creating a strong force of wind using her legs.
The Legendary Warrior spun faster and faster, increasing the strength of the power of the wind being generated. She spun closer towards Malevomon until she was in range. Kazemon unleashed a barrage of spin kicks all over the emperor's head and body. The evil Digimon blocked a couple of Kazemon's kicks, but allowed the butterfly to get a few good hits on him.
Then again, all of Kazemon's attacks have been ineffective. Malevomon grinned as he watched Kazemon trying to find a weak spot. But no matter how many times she's hit her target, the evil Digimon was unaffected by her attacks. Suddenly, she sprung her hands toward the ground, causing her to ascend back in the air, which surprised the evil monster.
"Take this!" She screamed.
"Huh? UGH!"
Catching Malevomon off guard, Kazemon gave him one of the most ferocious roundhouse kicks she's ever delivered to the creature's head. The blow, however, twisted Malevomon's neck at almost one-hundred and eighty degrees. Malevomon was shocked that this little girl can unleash such an incredible attack. He groaned in pain and gasped for air. His body began to fall backwards. Kazemon landed on the ground and observed the damage she'd inflicted. The small victory made the Legendary Warrior smile to herself. She sighed and started walking back towards Bokomon and Neemon.
"Sorry... fooled ya..." A deep voice laughed.
Kazemon stopped dead in her tracks and turned back towards her opponent. Her eyes widened at what she saw. With all of his might, he readjust his somewhat broken neck, creating a loud cracking sound which echoed throughout the village. The Warrior of Wind cringed at the noise. Just like that, Malevomon's neck was repaired.
The butterfly stood there, frozen and afraid. She threw everything she had and it's still not enough. She took a step back, but stumbled back to the ground. Her entire body was covered with Malevomon's shadow. She looked up with fear written all over her eyes.
"It... It can't be!" She gasped.
Malevomon pointed his hand at Kazemon, levitating her off the ground. He pulled her toward him. Kazemon tried to break free, but she couldn't get loose. Once she was close enough, Malevomon punched her once in the face and twice in the gut. Kazemon winced in pain, but then the evil Digimon grabbed her head a slammed her hard on the ground. The Warrior of Wind screamed in agony upon impact. Malevomon chuckled at his defeated and dazed opponent.
"You don't understand, my child. Do you know why I ordered Sinistromon to fight your friend, Beautymon? Not just to make a fool out of himself, but to get her out of the vicinity. You see, she and Swiftmon were the only obstacles in my way. The rest of you pathetic creatures..." He extended his hand towards the fallen Legendary Warrior. He grabbed Kazemon by the neck and lifted her up in the air. She coughed and gagged for air, silently praying for someone to save her.
"... are already dead."
"Pyro Barrage!" shouted BurningGreymon.
Solar energy bullets shot out of the Digimon's machine guns attached to his arms. The attack sprayed a couple of DarkTyrannomons' body. The dinosaurs cried in pain, before they were obliterated. BurningGreymon turned his body around and gave another DarkTyrannomon a huge uppercut to the jaw. He then focused on a couple charging Triceramon.
He unleashed a huge roar as hot flames engulfed his body.
"WILDFIRE TSUNAMI!" BurningGreymon screamed, releasing the hot attack towards the Triceramon. But before the dinosaur Digimon could move out of the way, the flames swallow the Triceramon, incinerating their entire bodies until there was nothing left. BurningGreymon landed smoothly on the ground
"Behind you!" Swiftmon cried.
The Beast of Flame turned and noticed three energy blasts heading his way. He moved left and right to avoid the first two shots. However, the third blast hit BurningGreymon in the chest. He fell to the ground with a thud. Fractal Code surrounded his entire body as he transformed back into Takuya. He got on his hands and knees and saw a DarkTyrannomon standing really close to him. He growled at the young boy as he lifted up one of his leg, ready to stomp on the defenseless boy.
"Diamond Cutter!" Swiftmon yelled, quickly dancing around DarkTyrannomon and slashing his broadsword at the dinosaur. Swiftmon landed in front of Takuya. The goggle-headed boy watched as DarkTyrannomon's body exploded into tiny pieces. He quickly got back to his feet and looked back at the swordsman.
"Thanks, Swiftmon."
"We mustn't get careless! Hurry and get back in the..."
"Take this you, witch!" Some voice spoke.
Takuya and Swiftmon looked back towards the forest and noticed a few explosions, followed by a few pink beams. The attacks were drawing closer towards the warriors. Finally, a tiny imp flew out of the trees and landed on the ground, a few feet in front of Takuya.
"Ow... my back."
"Sinistromon..." snarled Swiftmon.
"Sinistromon?" Takuya asked. "Who's he?"
"This is bad. If he's here, then that means..." Suddenly, another figure jumped out of the forest and landed on top of Sinistromon. The wind gracefully blew her long olive hair back.
"Poor Sinistromon. Teehee! I told you! I'm too fast, too strong, too good and just too..."
"Beautymon? What are you doing?" Swiftmon asked, with both irritation and anger in his voice.
"Where's Zoe?" Takuya questioned. "Is she alright? Did she find her Spirits yet?"
"Oh hiya, Cutie!" waved Beautymon. "Aw, did my little darling get a boo-boo? Did those nasty Digimon hurt my little..."
"Beautymon!" Swiftmon yelled, snapping the female Digimon out of her ecstasy.
"Ow! What, Swiftmon? No need to yell so loud in my delicate ears!"
"What are you doing here? Where's the other human?"
"Oh, she's getting her butt kicked by Malevomon."
"WHAT?" Swiftmon screamed, again in Beautymon's ear.
"Zoe... no..." Takuya gasped.
"If Malevomon's at the village, why are you here? You should be protecting the..."
"But Swiftmon..." She complained, pointing at the beaten little devil on the ground. "He called me 'ugly.'"
"What..." Swiftmon sighed. "That's it? That's why you abandoned your post? Because of a stupid insult?"
"Stupid insult?" huffed Beautymon. "You know how I operate, Swiftmon. You call me 'ugly' and you pay the price. This unfortunate fool got what's coming to him. Now if you excuse me, Swiftmon..." She pointed her hand out towards the barely conscious Sinistromon. "... I got some unfinished business to take care of."
"Oh, you're going to be in so much trouble when Lord Eldestmon finds out." Swiftmon shook his head.
"Whatever..." Beautymon giggled. "What do you think, Cutie?" She then asked looking towards Takuya, who was running back to the forest. In a matter of seconds, the Bearer of Flame disappeared in the trees.
"Huh? Where's he going?" Beautymon asked.
"He's going back to save his friend from Malevomon."
"Oh, please. If anything, she's probably dead by now. And if she is, then good riddance. I have no use for such weak..."
"Shut up Beautymon and help me out here!" ordered Swiftmon, unsheathing his swords and heading straight for the remaining dinosaur Digimon.
"Fine... whatever... but you owe me a new dress when this is all over, Swiftmon." Beautymon sighed heavily, joining her partner in the long, vicious battle.
Takuya ran as fast as he could through the dense forest, praying that Zoe's still alright. At the same time, he felt some kind of evil presence surrounding his body. As he got deeper into the forest, the stronger the aura grew. He couldn't help but think of Zoe, what kind of danger she's facing right now, or better yet, who was she currently facing.
"I hope Zoe's okay." Takuya thought. He finally saw light at the end of the forest. "Zoe..." He said as he departed the forest and entered the boundaries of Breezy Village.
He observed what's left of the village. Besides a few huts untouched, the rest of the place was almost completely destroyed. A majority of the trees and small homes have been annihilated, wildfires destroyed much of the luscious plants and flowers. The sight devastated him. But that wasn't his concern right now. He looked around the village and saw Bokomon and Neemon hiding behind the giant tree still standing in the middle. He ran towards them and the first thing he saw were tears in their eyes.
"Bokomon, Neemon? What's going on?" He asked. However, neither one of the said anything. He saw the worried look on their faces, and he knew something was wrong.
"Where's Zoe? Is she..."
Suddenly, something crashed into the giant tree, nearly breaking it in half. The impact sent the other three towards the ground. Takuya quickly got to his feet and looked towards the tree. He noticed a giant beaten up butterfly slumped against the broken tree. She was panting heavily. Bruises and scratches were smeared all over her slender, fragile body.
"Oh God! Kazemon!" Takuya gasped heavily.
"T... Takuya?" Kazemon said wispily. She slowly turned her head towards the teenaged boy. She could see a nervous look on his eyes.
"Wha... What's happened to you? Who did this?" Takuya stammered.
"Ah, you must be another one of the Chosen Children!" A deep voice echoed. Takuya turned towards the source and saw a tall well-dressed humanoid standing in front of them.
"You..." Takuya growled. His heartbeat started to beat rapidly. "Did you do this to her?"
"Hahahahahaha! You humans are such fascinating creatures. You care so much for one another. Cute, but a nothing more than a sign of weakness."
"You slimeball!" Takuya growled, pulling his D-Tector out of his pocket.
*Insert Song: With The Will*
A large ball of Fractal Code covered the Takuya's hand. After a few quick arm swings and stretches, Takuya aggressively brought his D-Tector and ball of Fractal Code together.
"EXECUTE, NOW!" He yelled with all of his might. He swiped the ball of Fractal Code with the scanner on top of the D-Tector. "FUSION EVOLUTION!"
A long stream of Fractal Code spiraled around his body. The Human and Beast Spirit of Fire finally awakened and started to combine its powers with each other. The boy felt a surge of energy completely taking over his body. Takuya screamed as loud as he could during the transformation, signifying how much energy and power his body is consuming. It wasn't long before the transformation was complete. The cocoon of Fractal Code exploded, revealing a Hybrid Spirit of Flame.
"ALDAMON!" The Digimon cried.
He stepped in front of the fallen Warrior of Wind and got into a defensive position. Malevomon stood right on his spot with his arms crossed. He sighed deeply and shook his head in disappointment.
"Silly me, I forgot to introduce myself! I'm the future ruler of the Digital World, but you may call me... Lord Malevomon!"
"Malevomon!" Aldamon snarled. "So you're the one who's causing all of this chaos!"
"Chaos? Foolish boy! The world these pathetic creatures live in right now is already in chaos! I am here to restore order and..."
"You want nothing but to destroy the Digital World!" accused the fiery Digimon. "To force innocent Digimon under you control and hurt anyone who stands in your way!" The cannons on his arms made a 180° turn and opened up for firing mode. They started glowing red, increasing energy with each passing second until it reached full capacity.
"And for that, you're gonna play! ATOMIC INFERNO!"
Aldamon started punching rapidly towards the evil Digimon. He released thousands of rocketing fireball missiles from his cannons. Malevomon stuck his hand out towards the oncoming fireballs. With a wave of his hand, he telepathically moved the attack towards a couple of huts, making them explode on impact. He stared deep into the Aldamon's eyes.
"What a shame. You Legendary Warrior are such a disappointment. Playing with you children is a waste of time."
"Why you..." snarled Aldamon.
"T... Takuya..." Kazemon spoke behind him. The Hybrid Digimon looked back and noticed the Warrior of Wind struggling to get back to her feet. Moving alone would send huge jolts of pain throughout her body. Still, Kazemon fought through it and hobbled towards Aldamon.
"Kazemon! Are you alright?" Aldamon asked.
"I'm fine..." coughed the butterfly. "This is nothing. I've... I've been though worse."
"You should rest! You're in no condition to fight!"
"But..."
"He's right, you know!" laughed Malevomon. "I've toyed with you long enough! I'm sorry, my child, but you're not even worth destroying! If you asked me, you must be the weakest fighter out of all the ten Legendary Warriors! Hahahahahahaha!"
"Why you..." Kazemon snapped. She took a step forward, only to fall back on her knees again.
"Zoe!" Aldamon cried, helping her back to her feet.
"I'm fine, Takuya." She said. "Please, let's fight him together!"
"Are you sure? It's too dangerous. He's a very powerful Digimon. If we're not careful, he could..."
"He's insulted me for the last time! There's nothing I want more than to shut his big mouth up for good!" declared the Warrior of Wind.
"Zoe..." Aldamon said to himself. He thought about it for a few seconds before nodding his head.
"Alright, just be careful."
"I will. Just let me change into something more comfortable!" The Warrior of Wind said as Fractal Code surrounded her body. Inside the long steams of data, Kazemon began to change forms.
"Slide... EVOLUTION!"
Finally, the Fractal Code had vanished, and a new Digimon appeared. It was a winged beast Digimon that closely resembled a ninja whose skin is darker as opposed to Kazemon's. She has a pair of long brown wings for versatile movement and light blue hair, shaped into a pair of feathered wings. A long black scarf is worn around her neck, which hangs down behind her legs. Like Kazemon, her outfit consist of a lavender battle suit, bra, and underwear with metallic shoulder pads. Unlike Kazemon, Zephyrmon's hands are metal claws. The metal extend from her hands up to her elbows. The Symbol of Wind is embedded on each hand. She wore tight lavender stockings and metal knee pads. Her feet have three talons on each foot. Finally a face mask covered her neck and mouth, revealing her sparkling blue eyes.
"Zephyrmon!" The winged beast shouted.
"Oh... so you do have some fight left in you." Malevomon laughed. He crossed his arms and brought his two feet together.
"Very well, then. Come after me."
"Let's get him!" Aldamon commanded.
"Right!" complied Zephyrmon. She flew up in the air, getting ready to unleash her attack.
"Hurricane..." She slowly brought her arms back before... "... GALE!"
She created a purple tornado with throwing blades of pink energy at the enemy. Malevomon sighed deeply as he used his hand to move the attack away from him and towards the forest. The winged beast Digimon retreated as Aldamon made his move.
"Atomic Inferno!"
By punching rapidly at his opponent, he released thousands of fireballs towards Malevomon. Again, the evil emperor telekinetically pushed the attack out of harm's way and towards a few standing huts to his left. The small houses exploded upon impact. Malevomon laughed at the two Legendary Warriors in front of him.
"This is so tedious. You're attacks are useless against me."
"He's right." Aldamon said, clenching his fists. "We have to try a different approach."
"I got an idea. Keep him busy!" Zephyrmon said, taking to the skies.
"Alright! Be careful, Zoe!" Aldamon said, making his move towards Malevomon.
"What's this?" Malevomon said, unenthusiastically. He watched Aldamon throw more powerful fireballs in his direction. Again, he pushed them out of the way with a wave of his hand.
"Alright, buddy! Try this! SOLAR WIND DESTROYER!"
He raised his hand in the air and gathered all the heat energy all around him, creating a giant fireball. Once the energy reached its limit, he throw it at the evil Digimon. This time, the powerful attack surprised Malevomon. He gasped a little bit, before stepping out the way. As the fireball passed him, he did feel a strong surge of heat stroking his face. He landed smoothly on the ground and grinned at the Hybrid.
"Impressive. I underestimated you, children."
"Zoe, now!" Aldamon ordered.
"With pleasure!" Zephyrmon reappeared in Malevomon's blind spots. Her claws and talons started to glow crimson red, forming giant orbs on her hands and feet.
"PLASMA PAWS!"
Zephyrmon dove towards the unsuspecting Malevomon. The distance between the two of them closed quickly. But before she could land her attack on him, Malevomon turned his head a little bit, showing Zephyrmon his terrifying eyes. He then stuck his left hand out and caught the Beast Digimon of Wind by the neck. The red orbs on Zephyrmon's hands and feet disappeared. She tried to break free, but Malevomon's grip was too strong. She started coughing as her oxygen supply depleted.
"Zoe!" Aldamon shouted. "Let her go, Malevomon!"
"You want her? Come and get her." said Malevomon, with an evil smirk across from cheek to cheek.
"YOU MONSTER! TAKE THIS! ATOMIC INFERNO!"
He released more powerful fireballs at the evil emperor. Malevomon sighed as he held Zephyrmon in front of the attack. Aldamon eyes widened and gasped heavily as the fireballs spray Zephyrmon's defenseless body. The Digimon of Wind cried in pain. Even the muscles in her body felt like it was catching fire. Finally, the attack stopped, leaving a barely conscious Zephyrmon dangling in Malevomon's hands. Aldamon stood there; shocked and terrified at what he just did. He had inadvertently attacked his best friend, which made his sick to his stomach.
But Aldamon was so lost in thought, he failed to see Malevomon throwing the female Digimon directly at him. The Hybrid quickly snapped back into reality, but it was too late. Zephyrmon's body crashed into his, send the two Digimon tumbling on the ground. They both slammed hard into a nearby tree. Suddenly, a ring of Fractal Code surrounded Zephyrmon as her entire body turned into black. On the Fractal Code, the Beast Spirit of Wind revealed itself to Malevomon.
"Excellent!" He laughed. He held his hand up and telekinetically pulled the Spirit towards him. Finally, the Beast Spirit of Wind was in his possession. He looked back at the fallen Warriors. He saw Aldamon slowly getting to his feet and crawling towards his friend. A motionless Kazemon laid flat on her back, covered in dirt, scrapes and bruises. Although the ring of Fractal Code around her had disappeared, she was still out cold. She could be easily destroyed with one more attack.
"Zoe... no..." Aldamon said softly.
He reached his hand towards Kazemon's. But before he could grab her hand, an invisible force dragged the barely conscious Warrior of Wind away from him. Malevomon pulled Kazemon back towards him and caught her by the back of the neck. He then apply pressure to poor Kazemon's throat.
"No! Leave her alone!" Aldamon cried, listening to his friend gagging for her life.
The Hybrid tried getting to his feet, but his body wouldn't move. Malevomon snarled as he telepathically pushed Aldamon back into the tree. He fall to the ground, almost unconscious. Malevomon laughed as he turned his attention back to the choking Warrior of Wind.
"Pay attention, my child. I'm about to show you my most devastating attack."
Again, he pointed his hand towards the defenseless Hybrid of Fire. A black sphere began to take shape in the palm of his hand. Kazemon gasped deeply. Seeing this attack brought back a horrible memory of Chrysanthemon. She remembered the fear in her eyes, unlike anything she's ever seen before.
"TAKUYA! NO!" She cried.
"Malevolent Onslaught." Malevomon mumbled, releasing the energy ball towards Digimon of Flame. Aldamon regained his consciousness and saw the dark sphere approaching him, but by then, it was already too late. The energy ball increased in sized and engulfed his entire body.
"No..." gagged the Warrior of Wind as a large ball of Fractal Code surrounded her body. The long lines of data soon disappeared, and a teenage blond reappeared, still with Malevomon's grip around her small neck.
"Now, my girl... listen to the joyous sounds of your friend screaming in pain." Malevomon laughed. Zoe looked back at the dark sphere and noticed it surging with energy. However, she couldn't see what's happening inside the sphere. Her heart grew heavy and cold.
"AHHHHHHH!" A voice cried from inside the sphere. "KYAAAAAAAA! YEOOOOOOOOOWW!"
"Takuya... No!"
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Malevomon laughed. "Music to my ears."
"Stop... please..." Zoe said. Tears trickled down her cheek. "T... Ta... Takuya..."
"Most amusing. You humans are such interesting creatures." said the evil emperor.
Finally, Malevomon snapped his fingers. The ball of energy surrounding the Digimon began to fade. An unconscious boy lie motionlessly on the ground. Zoe's tears continued to fall. It breaks her heart seeing Takuya unconscious like that. She feared for the worst and knew that's going to be next.
"Ta... Ta... Takuy..." Zoe gagged
But before she could shout his name, Malevomon gave the teenage girl a vicious punch to the gut. Zoe coughed heavily for air after the blow to her midsection. Malevomon grinned at the beaten young woman. He then threw the teenage girl at the subconscious Takuya. They two bodies crashed into each other and tumbled on the ground and into a tree behind them. Upon impact, both human children fell unconscious. A large ring of Fractal code encircled Takuya's and Zoe's body.
"Perfect. With the Chosen Children out of my way, no one can stop me!" Malevomon pointed his hand towards the children, prepared to absorb their data, and destroying the children for good.
"Pity though... I expected more of a challenge from you Legendary Warriors. But I guess I was wrong. Now disappear, you pathetic worms... Huh?"
"Sage's Shower!"
Malevomon looked behind him and towards the sky. He noticed a bunch of meteors and comets raining down upon him. Giant boulders and balls of energy slammed the ground around Malevomon, exploding and sending dust and debris toward his face. Malevomon looked up again and saw another giant boulder coming his way. He disappeared and reappeared a few yards from his original spot.
The wicked sovereign looked back at the fallen children, only to discover that they were gone. He then turned towards the front and saw Swiftmon reappeared, with the children under his arms. A fiendish grin appeared on his face.
"Well, now... It's been a long time. Hasn't it... old geezer?" In front of Malevomon was an elderly Digimon with a long white beard on his chin and a wooden cane on his right hand.
"Indeed, it has." Eldestmon spoke softly.
"Malevomon! Your reign of terror ends right now!" Swiftmon declared, pulling out one of his swords.
"Easy, Swiftmon." Eldestmon said, placing a hand on the second-in-command's shoulder.
"Is that so?" Malevomon laughed. "Bring it on, pretty boy! At least you'll put more of a fight than those lousy, pathetic children!"
He took a step forward towards his opponent. He lifted his arm up and pointed at the two Digimon in front of him. Suddenly...
"KYYAAAHHHH!"
A tiny monster shot out of the forest, landed hard on the ground and tumbled toward Malevomon's feet. The imp Digimon was in a fetal position, coughing in pain.
"Nice of you to show up..." Malevomon snarled.
"For... Forgive me, master." Sinistromon begged.
"Hehe! Too bad, little one." An angelic voice sang. Sinistromon looked up and saw Beautymon slowly lowering herself to the ground, landing smoothly in front of Swiftmon. "Told ya so! Looks like I win again! Ooh! Am I good or am I..."
"Beautymon!" Swiftmon screamed again in his partner's ear.
"Again with the shouting, Swiftmon?" The female complained, playing with her olive hair.
"You'll never get away with this! Fate has chosen the children to defeat you!" Eldestmon declared.
"Oh, really? Then you can tell 'fate' that it's wrong! Look what I've got!" He held his hand up and revealed a pink orb with the Symbol of Wind in the center.
"He's got one of the Spirits! Give it back, Malevomon, or I'll slice you to ribbons." Swiftmon ordered.
"The Spirits belong to me! And soon, the rest will fall under my control! It's only a matter of time before The Digital World will be mine! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Why you..." growled the swordsman.
"Well, as much as I love to play with you pathetic creatures, it's time I take my leave! I'll be seeing you weaklings later! And tell the children this! The next time they see me will be their last! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
As he continued to laugh, dark clouds started to form around Malevomon and Sinistromon. Their bodies disappeared into the thick smoke. Moments later, the smoke began to subside. Swiftmon held his sword tight and leaped into the dark gaseous area, but it was too late. The dark Digimon was nowhere in sight.
"Swiftmon..."
"Sir?" The swordsman bowed to his leader.
"Quickly take the children to the Medical Wing."
"Yes, sir." said Swiftmon. He walked over towards the unconscious Takuya and Zoe. Bokomon and Neemon quickly followed behind him. He carried them under his strong arms, walked towards the Digiporter and immediately disappeared.
"I best be going too." Beautymon said, turning back to follow her partner.
"Beautymon..." Eldestmon said.
"What?"
"Report to my office immediately when you get back."
"Why?"
"Swiftmon told me about your carelessness and inability to follow directions. I'm very disappointed in you. And for that, there will be consequences.
"But..."
"THAT'S AN ORDER!"
"Fine... whatever." Beautymon sighed.
She opened her sleeve and flower petals danced out and surrounded Beautymon's body. Finally, the female Digimon was completely covered with flower petals. The petals soon fell to the ground, and Beautymon was already gone.
Eldestmon looked around and noticed the destruction brought upon Breezy Village. It was tragic, devastating and disastrous. Only a few huts were left standing. Everything else either burned to the ground or just simply destroyed. The once prosperous and fruitful Breezy Village had become an arid and abandoned ghost town. While many of the villagers have made it to safety back at the headquarters, there were a few recorded causalities, including the caretaker of the Sacred Garden.
"Malevomon must be stopped. If the Chosen Children cannot defeat the evil emperor, than this is exactly how our beautiful world will turn out." said Eldestmon after scanning the barren village for anymore survivors.
He finally lets out a heavy sigh before turning around and disappearing into the forest.
Author's Notes: So, that's chapter ten.
Now that Takuya and Zoe got a taste of what they're up against, it doesn't look good for our two heroes. Can they possibly survive and stop Malevomon from taking over the Digital World, or will this be the end of the Legendary Warriors? Stay tuned to find out what happens on the next Digimon Frontier: Chaos Rising.
