"Is everybody ready!?" the announcer cried as the crowd cheered. "Is it me or does it feel like a long time since we've seen some action?" The crowd roared in agreement. "I mean really, it feels like a long time huh? Well enough of waiting, it's time to get this battle going! On this corner we have Haseo's team! Please welcome Haseo, Keramon, Kotemon, and Dorumon!" The crowd cheered as the white haired boy walked up to the arena with his partners.

"My, it's been a while." Haseo muttered with a small smile on his face. "I think a certain author has memory problems."

"Did you say something?" Keramon asked confusedly.

"Hm? Oh nothing important." Haseo answered with a calm smile.

"Now, on this side we have the icy cold flame of passion! Please welcome Ember, Blaze, Sky, and Frost!" Ember and her team walked up to the other side of the arena. All six of the digimon jumped into the arena and got ready to battle.

"Careful you guys. I won't be able to save you." Haseo said warningly, though he didn't really think his presence was necessary. If anything he would get in their way. He looked over at Ember and gave a shy smile. "Normally I don't like fighting women, but in this case we will not hold back."

"Fair enough." Ember answered. "I don't normally fight against guys that are weaker than me, but we're not going to hold back either."

"Begin!" the announcer cried.

"I'll burn you up!" Blaze cried as he ignited his fist in fire. He charged at the three digimon, aiming to punch out Kotemon. Dorumon intervened, firing a storm of canon balls at the fire user. He jumped up into the air, away form the speeding projectiles. The fire in his palm increase and he blasted it towards Dorumon. This time Kotemon stepped up to intervene, blocking the flame with his sword. The fire wrapped around the kendo blade, Kotemon bending the blaze to his will and empowering it. He charged at the other two digimon.Sky flew up into the air as Blaze landed. Sky fired several green twisting energy bolts at Kotemon, but he managed to skillfully dodge the attacks. He raised his blade and attempted to slash into Frost, but he parried the blow with his horn. The two began battling aggressively, Frost using his horn as a blade to counter Kotemon's own.Meanwhile, Dorumon and Blaze were having their own battle. Blaze was using his superior speed and fire power to assault Dorumon from seemingly every direction. Dorumon was narrowly managing to dodge the attacks, hardly getting a chance to shoot one of his own. Luckily, Keramon intervened and tied his tentacles around Blaze's arms. Blaze glared up at Keramon as he pulled him down to the ground. Sky flew in and began pecking at Keramon's head, making him loose his grip and defend himself with his tentacles.

"Spiral Twister!" Sky cried, firing a green spiral of energy right at Keramon's face. The living virus was knocked back violently and landed a few feet away. Sky charged again, but Keramon refused to get hit again.

"Crazy Giggle!" he laughed as he fired a ball of dark energy at Sky so hard and fast his head was knocked back a bit by his own attack's force. This time it was Sky that was hit and knocked back. Keramon kept up the attack, laughing madly as he fired off more and more Crazy Giggle attacks. The energy balls were exploding, covering the pink bird in a cloud of smoke.

"Horn attack!" Frost cried. Keramon turned too late to see the odd beast had left this duel with Kotemon in order to save his friend. Keramon was struck back by Frost's horn but quickly retaliated by wrapping his tentacles around the beast's arms.

"Crazy Giggle!" he cried.

"Blue Blaster!" Frost cried. The two attacks met between the two digimon and exploded violently. Keramon was ripped form Frost and both went flying to other sides of the arena. Meanwhile, Kotemon had taken up the fight against Sky. He slashed and cut with his blade, but Sky was gracefully moving through the air.

"Thunder Kote!" Kotemon cried as he charged his sword and pointed it at Sky. The bird was surprised when the lightening flew form the blade and struck him. The pink bird cried out as he was electrically shocked by the attack. Sky fell down to the arena, Kotemon jumpin up to strike him with his now blazing sword.Blaze appeared in front of him, catching the sword in his hand. Kotemon's eyes widened as the fire left his sword and went right into Blaze's hand.

"Sorry buddy." Blaze said confidently.

"Baby Salamander!" he cried, the fire spreading from his fist and covering his body. Kotemon cried out in pain as the flames knocked him back. Keramon, who had just been standing up again, was knocked down once more by the flying kendo monster. Keramon was knocked down, his tentacles involuntarily tangling up Kotemon.

"Get off of me! I'm not some Japanese school girl!" Kotemon yelled as he tried pulling away form Keramon.

"Give me a minute and calm down!" Keramon snapped back. He tried uncoiling from his partner but Kotemon was moving too much for him to focus and unwrap. Haseo sighed from his spot on the sidelines.

"We are so doomed." He muttered.Dorumon, his friends both preoccupied, was now stuck facing against all of the opponents.

"Normally ganging up on him would be unfair." Ember said.

"But like I said, we're going all out!" The three charged at Dorumon, the furry dragon's instincts kicking in. Blaze threw a flaming punch at him, but he ducked and shoved his head up into the digimon's gut. He spun around Blaze and faced the other two.Sky and Frost charged at Dorumon. Frost began striking with his horn, Dorumon shifting just enough each time to dodge the sharp point of the horn. Sky meanwhile flew up into the air and created yet another green energy spiral.

"Spiral Twister!" the bird cried as the energy flew at Dorumon. Dorumon smirked as he ducked under Frost.

"Hyper Dash Metal!" he cried, unleashing a cloud of foam from his mouth. Frost twisted his face in disgust as the slime covered him and froze to create hard metal. The Spiral twister hit his back, Sky originally thinking the two would have moved enough for it to have hit Dorumon instead.

"Sorry!" Sky cried down.

"Metal Shoot!" Dorumon cried as he launched a small shockwave up at Sky. Sky dodged around it and flew down to Dorumon for more physical attacks. Sky knew that Dorumon, while fast, wasn't as good when it came to up close combat with his small and stubby arms. Sky landed and slashed forward, the sharp claws on the wings cutting into Dorumon.

"Don't worry, we're here to help!" Kotemon cried as he jumped down, narrowly missing Sky with his sword.

"Gee, lucky me." Dorumon muttered.Flamemon threw a large fireball at the two while they were distracted. Kotemon however, saw the attack coming and pointed his sword in front of him. The fireball struck it, surrounded it, and empowered Kotemon.

"Fight fire with fire." He said confidently as he took a battle stance. Dorumon moved away so his and Sky's battle wouldn't get in the way of Kotemon's and Blaze's. He fired a cannon ball at the pink bird, but once again Sky took to the air and dodged it.

"You'll have to do better than that!" Sky cried down.

"I intend to!" Dorumon growled.While the other four were battling Keramon was taunting the still stuck Frost.

"The doggy is stu-uck. The doggy is stu-uck." He taunted in a sing song voice.

"Digisoul charge!" Ember cried as she energized her digivice.Her three partners were covered in bright light. Blaze become taller and covered in red and white armor. His hair grew longer, becoming a yellow mane. Sky had grown as well, turning into a large phoenix-like bird. Frost had grown into a large wolf, his face turned up in a grin when Keramon gave a tiny afraid squeak at his new form. Keramon tried running away but Frost was much faster and caught Kermaon by his tentacles.

"The squ-uid is stu-uck." He mocked rhythmically.

"I hate karma." Keramon muttered. "A lot."

"Don't worry, I'll get you out." Haseo said kindly.

"Digisoul charge!"Haseo's team was covered in light as well. Dorumon grew bigger, the colors of his fur more pronounced and his wings and tail stronger. Kotemon didn't grow in size much but his body changed quite a bit. He was now more like Pacman, his body wearing ninja armor. Keramon had grown larger, floating in front of Frost. His body was a segmented chrysalis with tentacles ending in sharp spikes and a red horn.

"Things are about to get very messy." Ember muttered. Haseo over heard her though and nodded in agreement.

"Power Metal!" Dorugamon roared as he fired off several larger canon balls from his mouth. Blaze kicked each of them away, his limbs on fire. He charged the fire and sent it towards Dorugamon. The dragon pulled away, but the fire struck him and exploded. Dorumon charged out of the smoke, his eyes glaring angrily at Blaze.

"Hyper Dash Strike!" he roared as he charged at Blaze. He fired several cannon balls at Blaze, getting more accurate as he got closer. Blaze punched his fists together, his arms covered in fire. He spun forward, forming into a blazing tornado. He knocked the canon balls away and kicked Dorugamon in the jaw.

"Internet Surge!" Kurisarimon cried as he fired a bolt of energy from his horn. Frost didn't bother dodging; rather he opened his mouth and unleashed a torrent of blue energy at Kurisarimon. He let out a startled cry and withdrew into his shell to protect himself form the attack. He popped out and sent his sharp tentacles at Frost. The cut into the wolf's legs and tied around them. Kurisarimon tripped the wolf over, using his weight against him.

"Data Crusher!" the virus roared a she formed a large ball of viral energy and fired it at Frost.

"Howling Blaster!" Frost roared as he fired another surge of blue energy. The energy struck the ball of energy and a power struggle began. It was cut short however, when one of Ninjamon's stray shurikens hit the Data Crusher and caused it to explode. Frost took his chance and began biting at Kurisarimon's tentacles. Kurisarimon cried in pain as the large wolf bit into his arms. He pulled the wolf closer, trying to impale him with his horn.Ninjamon wasn't going to let Sky hit him easily. He jumped and moved as much as he could, throwing his shuriken and kunai from every direction. He refused to get burned, it wouldn't be nearly as forgiving now since this form didn't have his same fire manipulation ability. Sky roared and sent out several fire balls from his glowing wings at Ninjamon. He flipped above them and pulled out a shuriken and aimed.

"Take this! Iga-style, Shuriken Nage!" he cried. He threw the star, the blade glowing as it created copies of itself. Sky roared and curled his glowing wings around himself, creating a sort of shield.Ninjamon landed and cried when Sky's leg shot out and kicked him back. He landed, but disappeared with a poof of smoke.

"What?" Sky asked in confusion.

"Kege Bunshin no Jutsu!" Ninjamon cried. Sky looked up to see several Ninjamon in the air. Each one threw a shuriken down, the blades cutting into him painfully. The clones covered Sky, holding his wings to the ground so the bird couldn't move. The original appeared in the air in a storm of leaves. He took his katana in his hand and stared calmly down at the bird. He closed his eyes and focused on his blade. The sounds of the battle and crowd were blocked out as he focused.

"Nadegiri." He said quietly as he drew his sword forward calmly.When he opened his eyes, he was on the ground again and his sword was drawn in his right arm. He calmly sheathed it into his back and turned back to Sky. The phoenix cried out suddenly, a large cut appearing on his chest. He exploded into flames and reformed as the small pink bird he had been before. Ninjamon smiled, but gasped when his leg gave out and he dedigivolved. He looked down to see a large burn on his right leg. Looking back at Sky, he saw a confident smile on the pink bird's beak.

"That's it! Kotemon and Sky can't fight anymore! They are out!" the announcer cried.

"Good job Kotemon." Haseo called over.

"You too Sky!" Ember called to her weakened partner.Frost and Kurisarimon glared at each other. Kurisarimon's tentacles were too worn out to pull anymore. Frost shakily stood up and tore the tentacles off.

"Howling Blaster!" he roared as he unleashed one more jet of blue energy. Kurisarimon withdrew into his shell, unable to do much else. He stood up to the full brunt of the attack, but slowly his shell was giving out. Kurisarimon let out a loud roar and charged forward, ignoring the burning energy around him. He charged at Frost, surprising the wolf. Kurisarimon created a large yellow energy bomb and fired it at Frost. The two digimon and attack collided, exploding in a massive mix of conflicting energies. When the smoke settled, it revealed the two dedigivolved digimon panting and on their sides.

Dorugamon and Blaze smirked at each other, both of them breathing heavily. Their teammates were out of commission. It was up to them to win the battle for their side. Blaze formed a ball of fire on his fist, and Dorugamon aimed for one last cannon ball. Everything was riding on this last shot, and neither digimon wanted to loose it for their team.Unfortunately, their dramatic battle was cut short when a massive explosion filled the area.

CS: Yes, yes, I know it too forever!!! I was just slow! Now I think I'll do better.

Gaomon: Hopefully.

CS: Watch it!
