Light shone through cracks in the planks that boarded the windows as Bacuma and the others walked through the empty halls of the building that once housed Hypnos and were it was believed a portal to the Digital world existed. Renamon had gotten to know Verdera and had learned many things about dragons that like stories they could breath fire but it was a ability that was forbidden to be used unless it was necessary. Bacuma was still sad about what he had learned about him being an orphan and didn't talk unless he had to "Who are my real parents? Why did they abandon me? Will I ever see them?" Bacuma thought to himself over and over until he felt a hand rest on his shoulder as he looked around he saw it was Leon. "Look Bacuma I'm sorry that I had accused you of being the one who killed my family I know what it's like to not have a true family." Leon said kindly

"Thanks Leon." Bacuma replied

"You're welcome." Leon replied as they walked into a small room full of busted computers and other machines. "I've got something it's a large data surge under this room." David said

"Well then let's bust through and get going." Airdramon said

"Don't be hasty Airdramon if we do that this entire building could collapse." John replied

"Well then I say we find another way there." Bacuma said before he began to hear something in the room. "So you're looking for the Digital World that must mean you're the ones master sent me to get rid of." a feminine voice before Bacuma noticed a shadow moving through the room that he guessed was were the voice had come from. "Yeah were them." Bacuma said before using his D-Ark to bring out his sword. David and John both pulled out their guns as Calvina brought out her bow and arrows and Verdera pulled out her daggers ready to fight. "Ha such strong enthusiasm but it won't do you any good." the voice said before a figure walked out the figure looked like a ghost that seemed to have the appearance of a young women her entire body was pale almost transparent her eyes were black as coal and her smile revealed a pair of sharp fangs. "And you would be?" Bacuma asked

"I am Spiritmon not that it matters you're as good as dead anyway." Spiritmon said before lunging at Bacuma her hands reaching for his throat "Spirit touch." Spiritmon yelled before her hands hit Bacuma sending shivers down his spine "I can see your heart your fears your dreams... your anger." Spiritmon said "Soon you will have nothing left but sorrow."

"Not if I can help it. Diamond storm." Renamon yelled jumping into the air and sending shards of diamond at Spiritmon. "Ha such a pathetic creature." Spiritmon said as the attack went straight through her. "What the hell?" Renamon said astonished that he attack did nothing and Bacuma was still being harmed

"You see I have a very special power I can make my body shift its data so that any attack sent at me will go through me as if it was merely a breeze of wind." Spiritmon said still attacking Bacuma who was getting weaker by the second. "We can't just let this happen we have to save him." Verdera said before running towards Bacuma and knocking him out of Spiritmons grasp and sending him to the ground "You will pay for attacking him you bitch." Verdera yelled running at Spiritmon and swinging her daggers at her. Not noticing Verdera's attack Spiritmon was barly able to dodge the attack "So is the child's mommy going to fight for him?" Spiritmon asked mockingly

"I may not be his real mother but I've taken care of him his entire life and I will not stop now." Verdera replied before attacking Spiritmon relentlessly. Spiritmon merely shifted her data and avoided the attack however Verdera kept attacking determined to harm the ghost like Digimon "So you want to keep fighting well then I won't stop you in fact I'll help you. Spirit soul." Spiritmon said before grabbing Verdera and began to move into Verdera's body. "Verdera are you alright?" John asked

"Verdera is no longer here." a voice said as Verdera's body turned around revelling her eyes to have become completely black rather than the emerald green hue that they normally were. "Thanks to my Spirit soul attack I have taken over this young dragons body." Spiritmon said through Verdera's body before lunging at the group daggers ready to strike.

Verdera woke surrounded by darkness she could see nothing hear nothing feel nothing all her senses were completely useless "Were am I?" Verdera asked before she felt like something was grabbing her arm and out of reflex she turned around and saw two windows shaped like eyes and found the image through the windows looked like the place they were when Spiritmon attacked but what shocked her the most was the image of her husband John holding her arm and stopping one of her daggers from striking his heart "What's happening?" Verdera asked before she heard a voice behind her. "I'm just helping you fight like I said I would." the voice said as Verdera looked around and saw that it was Spiritmon

"You bitch what are you doing to me?" Verdera asked

"I've taken your body for myself." Spiritmon replied

"Well then I'll just have to kick you out." Verdera said lunging at Spiritmon. "Damn I can't shift my data without leaving her body." Spiritmon thought to herself and could only dodge the attack but still got hurt when Verdera's claw hit her arm "Gah you'll pay for that." Spiritmon yelled lunging at Verdera.

John finally managed to knock Verdera's dagger out of her hand and knocked her onto the floor before John quickly ran up to her and grabbed Verdera's body as it soon started to struggle "So what now?" Bacuma asked getting up

"We can't harm her even though Spiritmon is inside her it's still Verdera." John said

"We could tie her up so that she can't move." Leon suggested

"Even though I don't like the idea that sounds the most reasonable option." John said

"Only question now is what do we tie her up with I didn't bring any rope did any of you?" Bacuma asked

"I've got some." Calvina said using her D-Ark to materialise a long strong rope and tied it around Verdera's arms and legs to the she couldn't move. When that was done John walked up to Verdera's body and looked right into her black eyes before he began to speak "Listen Spiritmon you better release Verdera or I swear when I find a way to get you out myself I'll make your life a living hell." John said when he heard Spiritmon's voice

"Such a pathetic human do you really think that you of all people can have power over me? after all once I'm done with your precious friend this body will be all mine." Spiritmon said

"Damn it we have to find a way to help Verdera." John said

"Maybe I can make something out of the equipment I brought with me that will send you into Verdera's mind and help her." David suggested

"How long would it take?" John asked

"Depends could be a few minutes or it could be hours." David said

"Well if it will save Verdera go for it." John replied before looking over at Verdera's body that had settled down and looked like she was sleeping "Don't worry Verdera I'm going to save you." John said as David took his equipment and started building.

Verdera struck at Spiritmon once again but just before the attack hit Spiritmon grabbed Verdera's arm and quickly moved so that she was behind Verdera with her arm around Verdera's throat "So what do you think of my power now?" Spiritmon asked mockingly

"Could do with some improvement." Verdera replied before hitting Spiritmon as hard as possible "I know that while you're my mind you can't phase out and avoid an attack." Verdera said running up to Spiritmon as fast as possible ready to strike. "I hope John and the others can help otherwise I'm as good as dead." Verdera thought to herself as she got ready to fight for control of her mind.
