Chapter 10 journey complete
Armageddemon deleted a few Digimon before the knight got in range of the spider like Digimon and once he did however the knight brought his sword down on the mighty creature with a great yell "Transcendent Sword"
While the blue eyed knight's swing was powerful that was all the great fusion warrior had considered, he had not thought that the spider like Digimon would evade using its superior speed, it did so and quickly got behind the knight releasing it's Destiny Destroyer point blank to Omnimon's backside then leapt high and used it's Full Scale Attack but the brave warrior, leader of the royal knights would not be out done by such an attack, quickly Omnimon devised a plan that validated his title of leader first the holy knight swung his right arm down toward the ground unlocking the Supreme Cannon next he focused the power of the sword until the runes on it began to glow fiercely, then he fired the cannon at his feet and as expected Armageddemon was stupefied landing he fired his Destiny Destroyer which only increased the smoke around Omnimon which the great knight used to expertly counter attack using his Delete All Attack to completely destroy Armageddemon however his victory was short lived as a lone Parasimon attacked and took control of the weary knight and a great laugh was heard from the dark area.
"Infested…Darkness isn't needed" the Digimon stated peering out into the area known as the dark area, he would have mistaken for a small human child if not for the twelve angelic wings spreading from his back "Matsuki" he mumbled scratching his left hand.
Speaking of Takato he woke up preparing for school, oddly enough he couldn't find his goggles, shrugging lightly he raced out the door not forgetting to take some food for his partner.
He dropped the food off with Guilmon and turned to leave finding Rika standing in his way "Uh hi Rika…what's up?" Takato asked
"School goggleh- hey where'd they go?" Rika asked slightly annoyed
"Oh yeah that…well I couldn't find them so I just left without them I was running late" Takato replied.
Something inside Rika stirred she didn't quite understand why but she didn't like seeing Takato without his goofy goggles somehow it made her feel uneasy.
Elsewhere another uneasy redhead approached a large cave near the base of Mount Infinity she had Renamon with her but given the Kitsune's current state she would rather not fight still she felt she had to go forward, so she and her ever fateful companion trekked into the cave and found Shiro and a black Agumon sleeping 'ha, doesn't Dedigivolve my ass' she thought turning to signal Renamon to hold the boy down because the cave was too small for the black Agumon to Digivolve and she didn't think the little guy would try anything if his friend was being held down, Asuka pinched the boy's nose force him to wake up.
Shiro shook off affixation taking a deep breath and looked over at the two girls and realized that they were trying to hold him down to keep him from attacking or maybe to kill him, ether way he didn't care he was a failure.
"Move and your dead" Asuka whispered
Shiro nodded slowly "Ok sure…I guess you and Renamon want revenge, go ahead I won't try and stop you…I deserve it just…please don't hurt BK, please he's my only friend in the world…do whatever you want with me just don't take him from me…please" the boy pleaded looking up into Asuka's blue eyes as he started to cry again clutching the coat on his shoulders.
"That's enough Renamon let him go…I think you'd better explain yourself from the beginning…Shiro was it?" Asuka asked and the boy nodded in response "Ok but they isn't much to tell about myself because I don't remember how I got to the digital world…lately, well since meeting you and your friends I've been able to remember some things" Shiro explained
Asuka nodded motioning for him to continued, Shiro took his cue and continued "As for me and BK well, we've always been together and he has always been at the Mega level…we worked for the royal knights as spies against Zetamon that's why we fought you…you see we had to play like we were helping Zetamon…he was constructing a new body with which he could leave the dark area" the boy explained
Renamon spoke up "what do you mean you work for the knights?" the vulpine Digimon asked staring into the boy's eyes to make sure she was not deceived "they are alive, they serve Yggdrasil, they want to destroy Zetamon and me and BK and every virus Digimon in the digital apparently and Miss Renamon the way you're staring is making me uncomfortable, so if you could I would ask you to please stop" the boy replied
Renamon was startled by the boy politeness and blushed slightly backing away though their connection Asuka teased her partner 'Miss huh?'
'Shinji' was Renamon's reply which made the red head back off quick as she came
Shiro watched the invisible exchange until BK stirred and sat up groaning lightly (Author's note: unlike Agumon and the others BK's voice doesn't change it always sounds the same as Black Wargreymon English voice) "anybody get the number of the truck that hit me?" he asked absently while rubbing his head, Shiro shot the others a pleading look.
Asuka nodded and gave him a reassuring smile "Thank you Miss…uh I just realized I don't know your name" Shiro stated apologetically
"Asuka Langley Sohryu" Asuka replied
"Well Miss Sohryu my name Makai Takashiro Ishida…call me Shiro" Shiro explained
"Call me Asuka and please continue your story" Asuka stated
"Ok so, well like I said I worked for the knights…until yesterday when they attack us and hurt BK…he Dedigivolved…he's never done that since becoming Black Wargreymon" Shiro paused shaking a little as he recalled the moment in his mind "and then out of nowhere BantyoLeomon shows up and saves us by destroying Craniummon…then he told me about this cave and gave me his jacket and I've been here since then"
"Come on Shiro we're going with them!" BK announced
"What?" both humans exclaimed in alarm
"It's time you embraced your destiny…you can do that if you go with them, remember you're Digidestined as well…besides what else do we have to do?" the small black dinosaur stated with a laugh.
Shiro nodded laughing a little in return "I guess you're right buddy…well as Vademon says take me to your leader" he stated giving the other two a sheepish grin.
The two ladies nodded and lead them back to camp where only Maria and Shinji could be scene. Asuka realized that the rest of the group must have been out looking for her and Renamon, she immediately felt horrible again, that is until Touji came out of nowhere and gave a right hook to her companion sending him to the ground.
Touji was about to continue his assault on Shiro when Maria and Shinji who had heard the commotion came running up, Maria smacked her brother in the face "Ouch! Damn it Maria what was that for?" Touji asked her rubbing his cheek "IS THAT HOW YOU TREAT EVERYONE THAT SAVES ME BROTHER, WELL?" Maria screamed the question at her brother's chest.
Touji was dumbstruck "Maria I…is that true?" he asked turning to Shiro who stood up quickly nodding "Yeah but don't worry about it…I kinda deserved that anyway" he stated wiping the blood off his mouth turning to Maria "I may have saved you earlier from SkullMeramon but that doesn't mean that I should be pardoned for everything else I did while following you guys, ok Maria?"
Maria nodded and looked at her brother; the two siblings came to a silent understanding after a moment the tension died down and the whole group finally reassembled.
Everyone was curious about the newcomer and Shiro was happy to get to know the others and answer their questions and except for a fainting spell which BK had explained was cause by the fact that Rei looked exactly like a friend of Shiro's named Katelyn there were no other problems.
Later that night after the Digidestined had learned that the royal knights were alive and kicking and that they served Yggdrasil Shinji marched over to Asuka and Renamon, he sat down in front of them with a stern look on his face which seemed to have infected his usual happy dog bunny partner. "Asuka…I'm glad that the whole team is together now but…what you did…it scared the hell out of me, you can't go running off like that…we're a team Asuka…just like when we fought the seventh…remember?" Shinji sighed as he finished his statement.
Asuka nodded with a smile "Yes Shinji I remember, now go you have a wonder girl to talk to about things" she laughed slightly turning to Terriermon "I'm sorry for hitting you"
Terriermon nodded "Momentai Asuka" he replied
Shinji blushed slightly "I don't know what you mean Asuka" Shinji denied
"She means you have a thing for that blue haired girly" Shiro's voice echoed from the tree Asuka was sitting under "well go on" he stated looking down at Shinji who looked up to face him "Go get her, after all Miss Langley wants you to be happy" Shiro laughed slightly pointing toward the beach and a certain blue haired girl who was staring at the moon.
Shinji looked at Asuka once more; she nodded shooing him toward Rei and laid back letting out a sigh 'geez sometimes he cares too much' she thought
'But he does care…Miss Langley' Renamon laughed though their connection while Asuka blushed.
Rika Nonaka blushed holding the article of clothing she held in her hands, she hadn't known why she bought it. No that wasn't right she knew why she just didn't know how she was going to present to the person they were for. 'Takato…' she thought nervously.
In the shadow realm the great dragon god of chaos was also thinking of the boy known as Matsuki however unlike the Digimon queen Megidramon had no reason to be nervous "Medi prepare yourself, you shall be the one to see if the shadow of justice is ready to accept the Trinity" the Dragon god roared
"Yes lord Megidramon…shall I dispatch the corrupt knights of the tree?" Medi asked
"If they should prevent you from your mission. Otherwise do not bother…I have a feeling that Ikari boy shall be Yggdrasil's downfall, after all "he" is already with him" the great dragon replied, Medi nodded in understanding "Go Medi, I wish you success in your mission…I shall see you on the day of the Trinity"
Medi nodded and his leave
'This form is useless as the boy has already seen it' Megidramon thought as his body began to twist and change until he was an exact copy of the Gallantmon except that his armour was Blue and black instead of Red and gold. The dragon god was no more all that was left was ChaosGallantmon the Dark knight 'soon the trinity shall arrive but fight you must be prepared Matsuki Shining knight of the Hazard' Chaos thought as he ripped open a portal to the southern quadrant of the digital world to await the bridge.
