Tamers: Guardian of The hazard [chapter 10: The eyes of guilmon]

Sunday 1ST /02/06:

Subway: 9:00Am


Hideki Fujita was your average guy, a little lazy and overly fond of noodles but average non-the less. He gazed with a lazy expression out of the window of the subway, bored out of his mind. The only saving grave of driving these things was the view, such as it was.

It was his first shift of the day, and he was halfway down the line to Shinjuku. He sighed at the prospect of another long day.

He knew from memory that the line ahead forked, and he was preparing to take the one he needed when he was distracted by movement further on. He peered closer, and his eyes widened.

"What the F…!"

"HISSSSSSssssssssssss!"


Henry`s Apartment: 9:00Am

Henry had been up early finishing the homework his busy week had deprived him of the time to do. Since defeating Mihiramon a week ago the number of Digimon bio emerging had increased… as had the Deva attacks.

It was still quiet in the house; his father was probably at work already, was everyone else asleep? He poked his head into his sister's room and found her fast asleep, lopmon in her arms. He shook his head at the little digimon, he wasn't sure what to think of her, or even whether to trust her, but she and his sister were inseparable now.

Only a few days after defeating the Ox Deva, Vajramon, the group had found themselves confronted by Majiramon the dragon Deva and Antylamon the Hare Deva. Then, right bang in the middle of the fight, Suzie, who had followed him to the scene of the battle, found herself the target of Majiramon`s attack.

While he had been busy having a heart attack and the Digimon were otherwise occupied, Suzie had found an unlikely ally in Antylamon, who had protected her from the attack and helped destroy her former partner. The moment this was done the Hare Deva had reverted to her rookie state, having had her power drained by her "father" Zhuqiaomon.

And now she was Suzie's partner… funny how these things happen

He shook his head again, carrying on towards the kitchen. His mother was already there as it turned out, nibbling on a slice of toast as she watched the news on TV. It had the volume way down and the optional subtitles turned on so as not to wake Suzie.

"Hey mom, good morning" he smiled, joining her at the table and taking a piece of toast from a plate left for him. It was slightly cold but otherwise just how he liked it.

"Good morning Henry…" sounding a little tired. Henry wasn't surprised, she had probably stayed late at the matsuki`s again. He had been surprised though when a day or two after Mihiramon he had found that his mother Mayumi Wong, had in fact gone to the same school as Takato`s mother.

She had been visiting her and her husband almost every day to check up on them.

"How are they…?" He asked, as concerned for them as he was for takato.

She shook her head "No better, they're both worked up to the limit, they have no idea why he may have left, they`ve closed the bakery, and Ms Nonaka isn't helping. She`s somehow convinced herself that the boy and her daughter have run off together, she`s a regular jarhead!"

Henry blinked, his mom didn't usually talk unkindly about anybody, she must`ve really annoyed her.

"Where the hell are you takato…?"


Domain: One week since defeating Lilithmon

Compared to finding a way home escaping the Dark Area had been easy. Wizardmon has been constantly insisting that he had once had a book filled with different ways to do it, but someone had thrown it away due to a little spine rot! After which he would be promptly smacked upside the head by witchmon, who would say that if he took better care of his books, and organised them better, they wouldn't need to be thrown out! Wizardmon would blame her parents and they would be like that for hours on end.

When they started the tamers would usually find somewhere else to be, and their partners would follow them closely. Takato had spent a lot of time outside the city practicing his newfound abilities with the Hazard, and was progressing surprisingly quickly, Wizardmon had even taught him a thing or two.

Mummymon had been gone since before they arrived, apparently he went off into the wasteland every now and then to find a good fight

They had all but given up hope of returning home, though admittedly the only one who seemed in that much of a hurry was Takato, who knew that his parents must be in quite a state after this amount of time.

Today, having found nothing else to do and with Takato exhausted from the previous day`s training, the five were stuck listening to Witchmon and Wizardmon bicker. Rika was attempting to distract herself by petting Witchmon`s ethereal cat, and though her hand kept slipping through [witchmon seemed to be the only one able to actually touch it] he seemed to like being scratched behind the ears.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when the couple took a break for lunch and after a brief row over which would be cooking, Wizardmon ended up getting out the frying pans and making lunch.

While he was at it, Witchmon came and sat beside them. While they had been gone the two had redecorated. Wizardmon now had a new [much smaller] book case, with one shelf dedicated to Witchmon`s porcelain cat collection. The clutter was all but gone, warm rugs had been placed down, and a large C shaped sofa took up the space between the fireplace and the door. The five plus Witchmon could comfortably sit here, even with guilmon and the cat floating just above Rika`s lap.

Witchmon chuckled "Sorry again about me and Wizardmon, we`ve always been rivals since leaving our home town, how we ended up together is beyond me…"

"I still believe you used some kind of enchantment, it's the only explanation!" Wizardmon called though from the kitchen.

"Shut up Wizardmon! …Any way perhaps when he Digivolve`s to Wisemon he`ll grow up a little… unlikely… so, you come up with anything…?"

"Takato shook his head "No… far as I can tell we`re stuck here…" Witchmon looked concerned for them "Well, for as long as you need it this can be your place as much as ours, right Wizardmon"

"Of course" he replied, coming back into the room levitating 7 plates piled high with bacon, egg and sausages, plus a large basket of bread. "One thing the two of us agree on is that nothing is more important than friends"

Barbamon surveyed the city with cold eyes. Belphamon, in his almighty rage mode stood beside him, waiting only for the word to attack, Barbamon sneered in distaste "Destroy…!"

"Lampranthus!"


"Lampranthus!"

A loud roar reached the ears of the seven in the apartment, rapidly followed by screams and crashes. Before any of them could react the side of the building was torn away, they leapt to their feet and looked into the receding dust cloud.

"Is that…?" takato began.

"Yes…" Renamon confirmed "It`s Belphamon"

Belphamon, the demon lord of sloth, was huge, larger than any digimon Takato had seen before including the SkullGreymon that had attacked them when they had first arrived in the digital world. He was a humanoid black dragon wrapped in black chains that glowed with green energy. The membrane of his wings was also green, and his demonic eyes were fiery red.

Looking closer Takato felt a sinking feeling in his gut. Standing on the first demon lord`s shoulder was another, one he recognised… as Barbamon. Barbamon had the cruellest expression he had seen yet, and appeared to be an old man, with pointed ears, an ankle length beard, and a yellow mask similar to that worn by Myotismon he was dressed in long robes, had clawed hands, the right of which had an arcane staff held in its grasp. His black wings stretched out raising him into the air.

He grinned evilly at them "So you`re the tamers that infiltrated the citadel, I must say… I'm not impressed… little rookies surviving on nothing but luck and the fortune to have the Guardian of the hazard in their group. And as for you guardian… a fool… that is the impression I get from you, a gullible fool who acts on gut instinct with only the faintest inkling of how to use his power… Hn, after today the digital world will be troubled by you no longer! Crimson Flame!"

A burning sea of hellfire streamed toward them before they could respond. They shielded their eyes waiting for the searing pain to come… but it never did, Takato was the first to open his eyes and see Wizardmon sprawled out in front of them, bleeding data from various burns across his body, he suddenly realised that he has cast up a barrier to protect them!

"Wizardmon!" witchmon yelled, pushing past them and crouching beside them, cradling his head in her arms.

"Witchmon…" he croaked, blinking with bleary eyes "You know… now I'm glad you threw out my… stuff… at least it won't end up as part of… Barbamon`s collection…" His head slumped to the side. Thankfully his data did not scatter, meaning he was merely knocked out. But that was still enough for Witchmon.

"Bastards!" she screamed, charging at the two Demon Lord`s "Baluluna Gale!"

A powerful gust of wind struck Barbamon, pulling at his robes and ripping at his beard… but he just grinned through it all, gesturing to Belphamon who struck at the witch with a clawed fist, propelling Witchmon to the ground with a sickening crunch. Takato had had enough

"Now Guilmon!"

MATRIX -D-I-G-I-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N "GUILMON DIGIVOLVE TO... GROWLMON!"

"GROWLMON MATRIX DIGIVOLVE TO... WARGROWLMON!"

Rika clenched her fist around her digivice "You too Renamon!"

"Yes Rika"

MATRIX -D-I-G-I-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N "RENAMON DIGIVOLVE TO... KYUUBIMON!"

"KYUUBIMON MATRIX DIGIVOLVE TO... TAOMON!"

Barbamon sneered "Hn, Ultimate level, is that really all you have…? Well… at least I'll be able to add your digivice`s to my collection of artefacts… I'll catalogue them under N… for novelty items… I'll put them right next to the Patamon slippers…!"


Henry's Apartment: 9:30Am

A slice of toast dropped to the ground.

Mrs Wong looked up "Henry…? What's wrong?" Henry stared at the screen, captured by the images, strings of sound reached his ears.

"… Unexplained…"

"… No wreckage of the second…"

"… No survivors have yet…"

"… Shinjuku line…"

"Those poor people…" his mom spoke from beside him, making him jump. She blinked "Are you ok?"

He nodded "Yea… sure…. Uh, mom, I need to go out for a while, ill be back soon!" he ran past her, toward the door, grabbing a last slice of toast on the way.

The door closed loudly.

Mrs Wong stared after him "… What got him in such a hurry?"


"Gift of Darkness!" Belphamon roared as he slashed his flaming claws at war growlmon, missing by inches and the Mech-dragon. Like his other attacks this left slash marks in the air itself, through which came a green glow, but each gash healed to quickly to really get a good look.

"Atomic Blaster!" Growlmon called, firing his chest lasers in retaliation. They had managed to draw the Demon Lord`s away from the city in to the surrounding desert, where they were finally able to fight full out. But it seemed it wasn't enough.

"Take This!" takato yelled, running up Wargrowlmon`s back and spring boarding off his nose, his entire body covered in what he had come to call "The Hazard Cloak" and delivered an axe kick to the floored Belphamon, causing him to grunt in pain as the hazard burned the flesh on his cheek.

Takato jumped back, retreating from the dragon to gain back his breath. He was already exhausted, sweat glistened on his face and his shirt was damn "Damn…" he thought "I`ve only attacked twice and I'm already like this…" he ground his teeth as Belphamon got to his feet, seemingly unfazed by his attack "Damn it, maybe I should just distract him while Wargrowlmon does the attacking…? Ok, duck and weave…"

A little ways off, Taomon and Gatomon were having just as little luck against Barbamon. For an old guy he was pretty fast, and the intensity of his flame attacks was tremendous! Something about his mask made him immune to Gatomon`s "Cats Eye" and Taomon`s "Thousand Spells" Were taken more like a thousand tickles.

Only her "Talisman of Light" seemed to even hurt him.

Gatomon landed in a heap beside Taomon, rather battered. Taomon looked tired, fighting while keeping up her "Talisman Spell" to protect Rika was becoming difficult. As for Rika, she was feeling helpless, her modify cards were enough to keep Taomon going, but none seemed to give her an edge, and there was nothing she could do to help the others, even takato was able to fight to some degree! He had landed a solid kick to a Demon Lord and was still breathing.

She so desperately wanted to help.

Gatomon was back on her feet, determined to keep fighting. They had gone through all this trouble just to get guilmon back and she would be damned if they died now. Looking over to Takato she saw his running rings around Belphamon, annoying him like a fly while Wargrowlmon beat at him with his attacks, it didn't seem to be doing anything but pissing him off.

"Pandemonium Lost!"

Gatomon was taken by surprise, she had been distracted! The power of the detonation was unbelievable! The energies of the dark area channelled into one explosion of force. The attack his her full on, blasting her over a hundred feet away as she returned to her salamon state, broken and bleeding. Taomon was hit by the shockwave and barely managed to sustain her form, the talisman spell protecting rika dropped and she too was blown back.

"No!" Salamon heard Takato yell she turned her head towards him, seeing him punch Belphamon in the stomach before running towards them "Gatomon! Rika…!"

Salamon forced herself to her feet, she had to do this! She had to fight for Takato! Fight for her friends!

MATRIX -D-I-G-I-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N "SALAMON DIGIVOLVE TO... GATOMON!

GATOMON MATRIX DIGIVOLVE TO…

The broken data was cast aside as a new wave of power flowed into her core, the bright light emanating from it taking the form of a human woman with four angelic wings sprouting from her back. The new data fit over the form, creating her skin which was soon covered by a white body suit over her torso and left leg. Her left arm gained a feathered glove and her right leg a feathered boot. The golden breast plate and black straps were soon in place followed by the winged iron helmet from under which a river of silkey blond hair flowed.

A beautiful pink ribbon materialised and wrapped loosely around her right arm, levitating behind her head to do the same around her right, the ends reaching far past her arms. A smile touched her angelic face as she announced her name…

ANGEWOMON!


11:00Am

"Are you sure this is a good idea" Alice asked. They [Henry, Alice, and Jeri were riding in a subway car on the closest line to the crash that was in service.

"The deva`s don't exactly like us, I'm sure this will lure it out" Henry spoke confidently but was clearly nervous, that was why he had insisted Suzie stay home to "Take care of Lopmon"

Henry glanced out of the window as they moved into the station.

A thunderous crash reverberated through the air as the car not only shook but flipped! Glass shattered and metal screeched as they were derailed in a spectacular display of destruction.

Over it all the sound of a snake's angry hiss is predominate.

Alice blearily opened her eyes. Through the red haze she was only just aware of Leomon and Gargomon struggling to maintain their forms, having digivolved instinctively to protect their partners.

Dobermon was similarly protecting her; of course he hadn't been able to evolve for her as he was not technically her partner, just as she was not technically human. She stared at her palm where a nasty cut was pixilating, the blood had stopped flowing already "Not human… not anymore…"

Dobermon moved to let her up and she looked around the car, quickly wishing she hadn't. The metal had crumpled in on itself crushing everything in its way, the larger forms of Gargomon and Leomon had protected them from being crushed but both were hurt badly.

She had come off best; Jeri had several nasty cuts including one on her jawbone that would probably scar. Henry was pretty banged up, his left knee was bleeding and his right arm was hanging limply, but both were conscious, and more importantly alive.

The larger digimon were worse off having supported the crumpling roof with their backs, Dobermon seemed to be limping slightly.

Many others in the cabin were not so lucky…

The Tamers barely had time to recover as the damaged metal was torn away to reveal the reptilian form of sandiramon. The creature chuckled sadistically

"Ku ku ku… Tamerssss and Traitorsss die!"

The long, muscled silver and purple tail lashed out like a whip and grabbed the three champions, throwing them away like dead batteries.

Alice moved quickly, pulling Jeri to her feet "Help me move Henry!" Jeri blinked, taking a moment to catch up before shaking her head to clear it. "Right!"

The two moved the downed boy "Hold on!" Jeri stopped Alice as she was about to move him "Henry, grit your teeth!" the boy complied as the girl took the dislocated arm and unzipped his jacket a little, pushing the arm inside so that it would not jar.

Henry grunted in pain "Thanks"

Jeri nodded and looked to Alice "Now" as gently as they could, the two girls guided Henry out of the ripped up cabin and hurried him to the stairs leading to the surface.

Sandiramon had vanished into the ground, leaving the three champions on edge, unable to discern where the deva would appear.

Having deposited Henry Jeri sprang to her feet digivice in hand "Perhaps this will help"

"Digimodify - Hyper-wing Activate!"

Glowing white wings sprouted from Leomon`s shoulders, lifting him into the air just a Sandiramon emerged from the ground below his feet.

"Fist of the Beast King!"

The burning lion head struck Sandiramon in the eye causing him to hiss in surprise and pain. It opened its mouth to retaliate but was struck from the side by some kind of sound wave released from the maw of Dobermon.

"Grey Noise! Dobermon howled, knowing this was all he could do to help the tamers.

Sandiramon hissed "What a pathetic attack… it didn't even sssting! Venom Axe…!"

The deva stood there looking very stupid, his mouth hung open with no sign of an attack emerging "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!"

"Grey noise, an attack that temporarily disables that of an opponent" Dobermon explained, attempting to buy time for the others.

"YOU BASSSTARD DOG!" Sandiramon spat, slamming his tail down onto Dobermon`s back in rage, immidiatley taking him down for the count.

Sandiramon rose his tail to strike again but once again was thwarted by a volley of Gatling lasers.

"Gargo Lazer!"

Sandiramon dove below the ground again, at the last moment hooking his tail around Gargomon to pull him down as well.

The ground split as sandiramon tackle Leomon from underground causing his wings to disperse. Gargomon was trapped between the snakes jaws, one of his Gatling guns the only thing preventing him from being chewed up and spat out.

"Bunny Pummel"

Gargomon`s free arm, charged with data, mercilessly pummelled Sandiramon`s face to no avail. Sandiramon bit down harder causing the bunny to scream.

"Jeri!"

The girl jumped hearing her name and turned to see Henry`s pleading eyes on her "Jeri evolve Leomon! I cant even use modify cards like this! Please you have to help him!"

Jeri nodded "Leomon!"

She flinched as her partner rapidly avoided having his legs taken out from under him and back flipped towards her

"Yes Jeri?"

"We need you to digivolve!"

Leomon focused his gaze on his captured comrade "Yes Jeri…"

MATRIX -D-I-G-I-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N

"LEOMON MATRIX DIGIVOLVE TO... GRAPLEOMON!"

GrapLeomon darted forward and delivered a mighty punch to Sandiramon`s throat, a punch that carried with it such a surge of wind that it seemed for a moment that gravity had been nullified.

"King of Fist!"

Sandiramon choked and released Gargomon, the continued mighty updraft forced him into the roof and held him there, constantly battering him and denying him movement.

Gargomon growled weakly and took the opportunity to fire another Gatling round into the snakes hide, this time it seemed to further hurt the already wounded reptile, a fact which gave Gargomon much pleasure.

The attack eventually wore off and sandiramon crashed to the ground. By then his enemies [minus Dobermon] had regrouped and were waiting for him, he was hurt but not seriously he could still take them. His eyes refocused on the tamers, particularly the wounded one. With then gone, the ease of his task would increase tenfold.

With a hiss he bored into the ground once more and made a beeline for his targets. The digimon realised his intention too late to stop him as his jaws closed on the wounded tamer, cleaving him in half and filling his mouth with blood.

..

..

Wait… where was the taste of blood…? The texture of flesh and bone…? With a start sandiramon realised that his targets were nowhere near him, never mind in his mouth! Who had taken them!

"Greetings handbag…!" a strangely polite voice called "I believe you are looking for I?"

Between him and the other digimon stood a three foot tall lavender coloured Bunny, she stood on two legs dressed in an orange training outfit and black shoes. On her hands red gloves sported extendible metal blades, and below her tri-horned head a blue scarf finished off the image that was…

"Turuiemon, I`m very Pleased to meet you" the bunny-girl bowed "And now you shall die"

While curious as to the nature of their new ally the digimon and their tamers soon saw that this was not the time to question and leapt into battle.

Turuiemon cut deep and fast, never still for a moment, for sandiramon it was impossible to dodge her blades, GrapLeomon`s fists and Gargomon`s bullets and still attack. To his shame he realised his only options were to continue his now feeble attempts at battle without his ability to attack, or flee.

"Don't let him get away!" Gargomon shouted, seeing the snake about to try tunnelling.

"King of fist!"

Finding himself once again battered and pinned to the wall sandiramon could only watch as the finishing blows came.

"Gargo laser!"

"Ninja fist!"

"Blades of the kamikaze!"

Sandiramon slumped to the ground at the gates of death, but still he chuckled "You may have defeated me but my brethren the De…"

He was interrupted by the calm voice of Turuiemon "Don't think we are not aware of the deva, already your numbers are halved, now if you would kindly expire my friends and I would appreciate the peace"

Sandiramon hissed weakly and dispersed.

Turuiemon turned and bowed to Henry "Have I now earned your trust brother of my partner?"

Henry blinked "Lopmon?"

The bunny-girl nodded.

Henry felt awful, this digimon had saved his sister and he had still not trusted her, now she had saved his life.

"Of course I trust you Turuiemon, and I'm sorry, you saved Suzie's life and you're so close to her, I should have treated you like another sister instead of being suspicious"

Turuiemon smiled "I will forgive you if you make true what you have said and be my big brother"

Henry blinked "Uh… okay, sis"

Terriermon pumped his fist into the air "well then I guess that makes me the big brother of the family!"

"Terriermon"

"Momuntai!"


"Heaven`s… Charm!"

The rainbow coloured waves rippled out from Angewomon`s hands, striking Barbamon directly, the holy energies had an adverse effect on the Demon Lord. He roared in pain as the energy was stripped from him and his mask fragmented. He growled "You`ll pay for that… Crimson Flame!"

Angewomon dodged the attack nimble with twice the elegance she would have had as Gatomon, a small smile on her face. "Now Taomon!"

"Talisman of Light!"

The explosion caught Barbamon by surprise and without the artefact protecting him from holy attacks the power damaged him badly, data flowed freely from his body, and he seemed incredibly fatigued.

"This is it Barbamon…" Angewomon spoke quietly "It seems it is you who will trouble the digital world no more…"

"Celestial Arrow!"

"Agggh…!" Barbamon yelled in pain as the holy arrow pierced his chest. He spat up blood before speaking his last "Wha…? So pathetic... this shouldn't be possible… hn… no matter… I may not… but Belphamon will destroy you!" and with those words his data polluted the air.

Angewomon smiled and turned back to the others. Taomon's robed were dishevelled, but she was mostly fine. Rika was sitting up and staring at her, seeming almost disappointed. "Strange…" she thought, but brushed it off as she looked over to the second fight. Takato was sending her a huge grin as Wargrowlmon grappled with Belphamon "Looking good Gatomon! Sorry, I mean Angewomon!"

She laughed "Need some help over there!"

He grinned, and after dodging a tail swipe from Belphamon replied "Maybe just a little!"

Rika sighed as Angewomon went to join the second battle with Taomon by her side "I guess they don't need me then…"

"Atomic Blaster!"

WarGrowlmon jumped back after firing his attack, leaving belphamon as a target.

"Celestial Arrow!"

"Thousand Spells!"

The resulting explosion shrouded belphamon in a smokescreen that quickly spread out across the field. Angewomon peered into the smoke.

"Did we get him…?"

Silence fell… then…

"Lampranthus!"

Belphamon, who had manoeuvred behind them, released the full power of his flames on the unprotected backs of Angewomon and Taomon. The two screamed loudly, shocking the others, but belphamon did not waste the opportunity to tackle WarGrowlmon to the ground, trying to tear out the cyborgs throat.

Takato held himself back from attacking until he could se clearly, leaping back outside the smokescreen he surveyed the area keenly, seeing Rika also watching the smoke, even more tense than he was.

"Don't worry Rika, they'll be fine…?"

She glanced at him, and for a moment she looked grateful… before they heard a high pitched groan of pain an the smoke cleared.

Belphamon had WarGrowlmon pinned down, unable to move, Angewomon and Taomon were gone. In their place, huddled together in the sand, the tamers instantly recognised their bleeding partners...

Viximon and Nyaramon.

"Viximon!" Rika screamed, dashing towards her digimon.

"Rika NO!" Takato called out too late as belphamon`s thrashing tail slammed into Rika with a sickening crunch. She was thrown for hundreds of feet before she hit the ground and began too roll. She came to a stop an moment later, her leg was twisted the wrong way. She coughed up what seemed to be a gallon of blood to the frozen takato, before collapsing into blissful unconsciousness.

Takato stood still, inside he was shaking, fear anger and sadness raging in a blinding maelstrom of hatred toward belphamon and the demon lords.

"Hey… HEY CAN YOU HEAR ME IN THERE!"

"I hear you"

"Help me draw on the hazard! I need more!"

The red energy of the hazard was like a storm around takato`s body, drawing belphamon`s attention.

"BELPHAMON!"

The mega watched to the boy closely as the tamers voice went cold.

"… You will die for this"

WARNING, DATA INFLUX,

HAZARD MATRIX – A-C-T-I-V-A-T-E

"WARGROWLMON… HAZARD DIGIVOLUTION…!

The cyborg dragons body was completely obliterated as his core glowed a fiery red. The hazard was being streamed directly into his as the energy took on a liquid like nature.

This liquid soon took shape, a humanoid torso, dragon wings and head, a lashing snakes tail in place of legs. New data collected on the surface, adding the features, blood red scales, a creamy yellow underbelly, his chest had the hazard symbol, and looked reminiscent of a ribcage.

His arms were strong and vicious, the claws sharp enough to lacerate a mountain. But the face was the real horror, a snarling mouth dripped acid drool, and his heavy breathing sent It flying as spittle.

It roared angrily at belphamon, the intent to kill obvious…

MEGIDRAMON!"

Takato clenched his fist, he could feel the insanity in Megidramon`s mind pressuring him to give into anger and violence.

"Help me! We need to control this!"

"Concentrate on your D-Power! Its job it to control and stream data, feed the hazard into it, and it will adapt!"

Megidramon threw the demon lord off him, a wild look in his eyes. The ground was beginning to shake, and the data streams had turned red.

The digivice glowed brightly, takato had to look away to protect his eyes! And then, it shattered…

Large red markings of the hazard decorated the terrain, storm clouds filled the sky, the hazard was running amuck!

Takato`s right arm burned as more of the hazard than he could handle flowed into his wrist, the scattered data of his D-Power gathering around the spot.

And the chaos stopped, takato`s D-Power had reformed, now a manacle of blood red steel, on his inner wrist was a black jewel. Like a marble it was semi clear, and inside a red hazard spun slowly.

Megidramon seemed to calm, and looked back to takato. His eyes had changed, these were the eyes of his friend, the eyes of guilmon.

"Takato… my head feels funny…"

Takato smiled "it`s ok buddy, guess with great power comes great headaches… now then boy, we have some ass to kick don't we?"

Megidramon grinned and looked back and the demon lord seeing he was about to attack "Hey belphamon!" he brandished his claws "Time for a tickle fight!" and the dangerous but childish dragon lunged at his demon opponent, attempting to rip out his stomach.

Takato cracked his knuckles and summoned the hazard cloak "Hm, clobbering time…"

Belphamon found himself blindsided by a punch from takato and was sent reeling into the waiting claws of Megidramon. The other dragon cut deep gashes into the arms and chest his opponent, raising a scream of pain.

"Gift of darkness!"

Belphamon slashed wildly at takato who was coming in for another shot but found Megidramon in his way. Takato quickly spring boarded off his partners face to deliver an axe kick to the demon's nose.

Pained and humiliated, belphamon went wild.

The citadel shook as lucemon pounded the wall with his fist "Daemon!"

His second in command stepped out of a shadow and nodded "Yes lucemon?"

The ruler of the demon lords glared at him, daemon found it ironic that the lord of pride was sinking to the level of himself, the lord of wrath, perhaps the madness that had caused lucemon to wipe out his own kind was once again in control.

All the better for him if so.

"Daemon, I want those tamers dead, them and their digimon, why wont they die! How wont they die!? First lillithmon, then barbamon! Are my demon lords just pathetic!?"

Daemon decided to stay silent.

"No, they are not… not my lillithmon, she was strong, barbamon was stupid… perhaps belphamon will succeed, his wrath my friend may be greater than yours… leave"

Daemon did leave; best to keep up the act, but inside the full wrath of the demon lord was burning. A demon of sloth had greater wrath than him! It was an insult, and now more than ever, lucemon was the focus of wrath itself…

The hazard cloak fell away as takato`s breathing became laboured, belphamon took hits and kept coming, its injuries were fatal even for a mega, it was only the berserk rage that kept it on it`s feet.

Unlike his tamer Megidramon had not tired, and to his eye belphamon was slowing "I can do this, I can do this…!"

Forcing all of his strength into his muscles he pressed the demon lord into the ground and wrapped his tail around it`s thick ugly neck.

"Break… come on break!"

Belphamon grinned, quite obviously preparing his final move.

"No time to snap it, I need to attack too!"

The two mega` s were building up more energy than their surroundings could handle, rocks and sad were blasted into data as the pressure built.

Megidramon smiled "Belphamon… consider your ass kicked!"

"Megiddo Flame!"

"Lampranthus!"
