Last time on Digimon Digital Dreams: Dreams of the Arena. Our friends Arthur, Tye, Gaomon, and Tyranomon were trapped by Bakemons that were taking the forms of this slime-like darkness that corrupted everything in its path, including Zack who was revealed to be the previous Arthur! How many times has this cycle gone on? Can this generation's Arthur change it? Or will he fall to his beaten and broken heart? With Tye Gaomon and Tyrano by his side, will Arthur make it!? All these questions and more will be explained on this shocking episode of Digimon Digital Dreams: Dreams of the Arena.
"Let's begin, shall we?" the two stared at each other as Tyrano blocked Tye and Gaomon from stopping this, it had to be done and he knew it.
The two took out their weapons, the Chain Longsword and Twin Chain Daggers, the chains shined when they brought out the chains. The chains created a force-field around them as the battle truly started as they used their skill without their chains. Arthur rushed and jumped over Zack, using the chains as a second jump as he rushed Zack, who sidestepped and brought down his longsword as he predicted Arthur's sidestep which never came as Arthur ducked and Zack narrowly dodged the dagger strike.
"There will come a time. When we must fight, there is no avoiding it, teach him, but never tell him." Zack thrust his longsword forward as Arthur seemed to disappear as Zack felt no pain as he fell forward. A thud hitting the ground as the chains retracted.
Tyrano and the others ran up to where the battle began and ended, the sight scared them so much that Gaomon wouldn't let Tye see it.
The blood splatter was everywhere.
But it wasn't Zack's.
Arthur was the one on the ground as he knew one had to die as the daggers were stabbed in his chest. Zack being knocked unconscious seconds earlier as he struggled to get up. Arthur struggled and took the daggers out, having only broken ribs as he coughed out blood, kneeing in pain.
The path to chaos has opened.
Hours past as they helped Arthur recover, blind to the future opening up. Zack walked in silence through the now darkened forest, unsure of what to do now that his time has past, was this really how it was to end? Zack reached into his pocket and brought out a necklace and opened it, revealing a old photograph, one of Zack, Tye, Nikki, Danny, Michael, and Cody. Ricky and Arthur were no where to be seen from the photograph as he looked up to the data filled sky, which turned darker with the pasting second.
'Will we ever be free?' Zack thought to himself as he laid down by a nearby tree, deep in thought as darkness soon claimed him into sleep, never to wake again as a figure grinned, hidden in the darkness.
Tye, Gaomon and Tyrano were fast asleep as Arthur was still awake in his bed; slowly he got up as he looked to the window. So much has changed for him and that fight yesterday scared him, he was a completely different person. But that wasn't the reason why Arthur was so terrified
It was the fact that he loved the feeling. The thrill of the hunt engulfed him as he rushed for the scent of spilled blood, hungry, DESPERATE for the taste, the satisfaction, and it terrified him. He wanted to be done with it all, away from this madness he found himself lost in. It was fun at first but it just seems like a hell made just for him, for all the sins he had committed and he wanted out of it all.
"Arthur, why you still up?" Tye asked, rubbing his eyes in tiredness as Arthur didn't answer. He walked up to him, feeling a bit scared as Arthur was lost, lost in his memories, and lost in himself. "Arthur?" Tye asked as he nervously tapped Arthur's shoulder. He screamed as Arthur turned around.
"TYE!" Gaomon yelled as he got up, already being woken up earlier by Arthur as he ran to see a horrible site.
Arthur held a bloody dagger in his hand as Tye's head rolled across the floor as his body fell down. Tye was the first to go as a crazed look appeared in Arthur's eyes. He ran up to Gaomon as Gaomon fought back.
"ARTHUR! WHY, WHY WOULD YOU KILL TYE!?" Gaomon yelled in confusion and pure anger as he rushed at Arthur, hoping to end it with a single punch. "BREAKTHROUGH PUNCH!" He yelled as he focused his power in his fist as tears ran down his face. Arthur dodged the blow as the dagger went right through Gaomon's body. Tyrano got up as he looked at the crazed Arthur.
"Arthur...I guess you weren't the one either." Tyrano shook his head, knowing what was to come. Only he and Zack remember their previous cycles, but still are unable to stop it. This was the farthest they ever gotten as Tyrano thrust Arthur's dagger into his heart, ending his own life as he fell forward onto it. Arthur started laughing as tears ran down his face. Laughter and screams were heard from him as his spirit flew from his own body, unable to stay in the madness as he saw his body ran outside and fell onto his hands and knees, crying as the spirits of Tye, Gaomon, and Tyrano patted his back.
"There is nothing we can do but watch at this point." Tyrano said simply as tears fell from their dead eyes, rain falling onto the ground.
"Arthur? Wher-" Nikki barely had any time to ask the question before the dagger was struck in her stomach. As Cody and Danny heard her scream, running towards the danger.
"NIKKI!" They both yelled as the came to the clearing, the crazed Arthur licking the blood off of his dagger, the spirit of Arthur vomiting, looking away from his inner demon, unable to face it as Nikki's spirit punched Arthur's in the afterlife, tears running down her eyes as they watched in unified sadness.
Both heads were decapitated at once as Arthur used his twin daggers on them.
Ricky never died as Arthur viewed him as equals as they destroyed the land together. No one was spared as the world crumbled in their success, with no way out.
As soon as Arthur fell down the void a bright light shined and came out, engulfing everyone.
A/N I combined the 3 chapters of Destruction together so this is not numbered and instead the Missing Chapter
