Ruki44: Ok who actually thought I would update this in a week.
Nobody raises hands
Ruki44: Well that is harsh.
Ruki: Nobody is stupid enough to get their hopes up.
Ruki44: True. Well I learned why nobody takes out Megidramon. Everyone seems to like that deranged dinosaur.
Hinata: People seem to like the dark side of people a lot. Like the Atasuki.
Ruki44: Yea, that's true. Due to a request from Zeromaru Chaos Mode I will be including Chaos Gallantmon insteaded. Cuz I do like that guy. You'll probably see him during the D-Reaper.
Tetra: Would the fact that you have Digimon World Dusk do anything with your acceptence of Chaos Gallantmon?
Ruki44: ...Quite possibly...
Rukia: So not only do you two share the same name, you're both tamers.
Ruki: ...Oh dear god. Ok in Dusk your starter is Lunamon, so that must be your most powerful Digimon. So we're different in that regard.
Ruki44: Actually...
Ruki: No! You better not say it!
Ruki44: It's Sakyumon.
Ruki: Oh come on how does that work!
Ruki44: I wasn't able to Digivolve Taomon into Sakuyamon because I needed a Kuzamon. So I had to go between Kyuubimon and Taomon like 2 or 3 times before I could.
Ruki: cries
Tetra: Poor kid.
Rukia: Well this conversation got way off hand.
Hinata: Doesn't it always?
Rukia: Point taken.
Ruki44: Well I don't own anything!
Chapter 21
"Dude…" Takato whistled as we stood staring at the sovereign's (or one of them according to Lopmon) hide out. The others had gone before us across the first part of the bridge this area to the sovereign's den.
"Tell me about it." I agreed with Takato's statement of awe. "It looks like a conch shell, it must be a hermit crab."
"Can you be serious for any length of time?" Henry asked me with a sigh. I frowned.
"I am being serious! It seriously looks like a conch shell." I shot back, giving Henry a death glare. Henry seemed like he was about to reply until he was interrupted by Takato.
"Relax Henry and let's just go meet this guy so we can go get Calumon and we all can go home." He laughed as he wrapped one of his arms around me in a friendly hug and making me blush against my will. And I wasn't blushing because I liked him, it's because he was invading my personal bubble!
"Keep telling yourself that." Ruki told me in a sing song voice, like she had won something. "I know it's not true, everyone else knows it's not true, hell even your body knows it's not true." I growled at her and conjured up a land mine in my head and sent her flying into somewhere that wasn't bugging me.
"This bridge will take us right to Zhuqiaomon's castle and Calumon will be in there." Lopmon informed us, pointing across what looked like a bunch of huge steeping stones that led to the conch shell. I raised my hand to my forehead as I peered across the way. Well didn't that look ominous?
"Is it just me, or does it feel like we're volunteering to walk in the lion's den?" Takato asked us nervously. I sighed and started to push him across the bridge.
"Not that we have a choice." I grumbled. Henry watched me push Takato across the chasm with a slightly amused look on his face.
"Not that we ever really have a choice." He replied almost too cheerfully. "We could try to chicken out, but we're just going to get dragged back and forced to do it anyways. Most likely by Rika, but you know all about that don't you Takato?" How can he tease the both of us in one sentence?!
"I am failing to see what you mean." Takato grumbled as he took a few steps forward, making me trip since I was unaware of the sudden change. He luckily caught me before I hit the floor. I felt my face start to turn red but I forced it down. In case Ruki came back, I didn't want to hear her crap.
"Thanks." I mumbled before I continued walking slightly behind him. Henry sighed.
"All I ever wanted to do is become a good Digimon Tamer and have some fun. But now Suzy's life is in danger and I don't even know if we'll ever get home." Henry told us.
We reached the other side where the rest of the group was waiting for us. Just then the idiot duo came running up to us, a big grin plastered on their faces.
"We're ready to fight!" They told us enthusiastically. Ready to fight huh? More like ready to die… That's when a low crying sound reached my ears. I looked over to the pillar that looked like a foot and frowned. Takato must have heard it to because he too frowned and walked over to it warily.
"Jeri?" He said slowly and I watched him peer around the pillar to where Jeri was no doubt hiding. "Are you going to be ok? Listen I don't want anybody to get hurt either, that's why we have to fight Zhuqiaomon." When he didn't get an answer, he cast me a look that begged for help. I walked over to where Takato was standing and peered over his shoulder to see Jeri sitting down and staring at her D-arc. Poor girl.
"You never did want to fight in the first place, did you Jeri?" I asked her, walking over to her and kneeling down. "I don't think fighting is fun anymore either, but you have to understand, this isn't the kind of fight we can run away from." I tried to explain to her.
"Why don't you wait here, and when we come back, we'll all come home." Takato suggested.
"All of us?" Jeri asked, finally speaking. "Except for Leomon you mean." I looked at her sympathetically. She was hurting. I understood her feelings all too well…
"Jeri…" I tried to speak but I was cut off.
"He's never coming back is he?" I frowned, I knew the feeling of guilt and abandonment all too well. After all, my father died in a car accident when I was just five. But it must be 100 times worse for Jeri. She saw Leomon die…get murdered right before her vary eyes. I was at least, spared from that.
"No!" Henry's voice rang out and I looked up surprised. I looked over at Takato who shrugged.
"We'll be right back Jeri. I have to break up a little family argument it seems." I told her kindly before standing up and walking to where everyone else was and walked into Suzy screaming at her brother.
"You can't! You can't leave me alone! Not again!" I sweatdropped, I felt bad for the kid. She must really love Henry. Henry however seemed to reach his limit.
"Quiet!" He yelled, and I winced as he only succeeded in making her scream louder.
"I'm not staying!" She wailed as Henry pulled at his hair in frustration before standing up.
"Oh let's just leave her here and go already." He growled, turning his back on his crying sister. Harsh. However Suzy wouldn't have none of that either since she latched onto Henry's legs and began to wail harder. What happened next shocked me.
"Quiet!" He roared, turning around and raising his hand before clenching it in a fist. "You're staying. We already told you, this place is very dangerous and you'll just be in the way! I don't know why you came here, a little girl is no use against Digimon. It's going to have to be me alone, you got it." He yelled at his sister. I raised my eyebrow as his sister curled up in a little ball and began to cry. I never knew Henry could be like that.
"What is he talking about?" Renamon asked me quietly.
"I know right. I mean come on, what are we, chopped liver. And he better recant that girl statement otherwise I'll just beat him up." I whispered back earning a sigh out of Renamon.
"Old habits die hard…" Ruki sighed in my head. Damn, so she's back.
'Could say the same for you. I don't know why I bother to kill you anymore.' I grumbled at my conscious.
"It's ok Henry, she can come with us." Takato offered, looking at the crying Suzy sympathetically. That's when the idiot twins finally proved they had a brain and could use it.
"Hey Kenta and I will stay and look after her." Kazu offered with a smile. "Sure I'd like to go with Guardromon and beat up on the sovereign, but if I have to take one for the team and stay behind and keep the little lady safe, so be it. And I'm sure Kenta feels the same way." He then turned to Kenta with a smile. "Isn't that right Kenta?"
"Yea, that's right!" Kenta agreed all too quickly and enthusiastically. "It's our duty as gentlemen to stay behind with a little girl!" I sweatdropped.
'They just don't want to come.' I voiced my opinion to Ruki.
"Big time." She agreed with me.
'Cowards' We both said at the same time, coming to the same conclusion in the same instant.
"Thanks a lot you guys." Henry thanked them relieved.
"Did you both just have a good idea?" I teased them, putting my hands on my hips. They turned and looked at me in shock.
"Can it Rika!" They both yelled at me as I grinned wider.
"See Suzy, you won't be alone, see?" Henry tried pleading with the crying girl now. However this didn't stop Suzy's tears at all.
"I don't think she sees Henry." Terriermon noted. However he was proven long seconds later.
"I'll be ok." She sniffled, between her sobs. Takato smiled.
"Ok then, let's get started." Takato declared before turning and looking at the longer bridge we now must cross. "It's look we have a long ways to go." He sighed.
"Do we have to walk the whole way?" Guilmon asked. I groaned.
"Probably, I bet there isn't some sort of magical transport device that will take us there. I mean that would be too easy." I told the dinosaur before I started to cry inside. I had enough walking in this damn place! Lopmon however didn't say anything and ran across few of the stone. We followed her until she abruptly stopped. Following suit we stopped behind her. What was she doing?
My question was answer in a few seconds because a giant bubble appeared around our group and began to move forward.
"Wow, there is some sort of magical transport device!" Takato cried out gleefully, throwing his hands up in the air and almost hitting me if I hadn't moved my head. I sighed and looked outside the bubble. The sovereign must be really lazy.
After a few minutes of riding on the bubble Guilmon decided to break the silence with a morbid thought.
"At least we'll be destroyed in comfort." I shot Guilmon a look before giving his tamer the same dark glare. Takato began to whistle innocently.
"I can't believe Suzy." Henry said suddenly as we all turned and looked at him. That was still eating at him? "Why did she have to come to the Digital World anyways?"
"She came here for me." Lopmon said suddenly, and she sounded just as depressed as her tamer and her tamer's brother.
"Yea, maybe." I mused. They were partners after all…
"Well you should have gone to the Real World, there is no reason for her to be here!" Henry shot back. I sweatdropped.
"And how could Lopmon go about doing that if she was guarding the gates?" I asked the supposed smart one in our group. Henry opened his mouth and raised his finger. When he realized he had nothing, he shut it and looked away, grumbling darkly. "My parents are going to wring my neck." He resigned finally. "They must be so worried…" He trailed off, realizing what he just said.
"My mom and grandma…must be pitching a fit." I said quietly. Then I shuddered inwardly. Hope Grandma managed to get breakable items away from mom's reach.
"I'm sure they're both doing just fine. After all I did send that email letting them know you were ok." Takato told me cheerfully. My eyes widened. He did what not?! I looked up at him in surprise.
"What?! Sent them an email? When did this happen?" I demanded quickly. Takato frowned slightly.
"Oh, it happened awhile back, when we got separate from you guys, we got email from the real world so I kind of…well I guess you could say…that I…" Takato stammered over his words.
"Send an email pretending to be me to my mom and grandma, that sum it all up?!" I asked him a bit angrily. How come he didn't tell me that earlier? Takato raised his hands defensively.
"Woah there, calm down! I only did it because if I said you weren't with us, your mom and grandma would have gotten worried so…" Takato looked like he lost a train for an argument before hanging his head. "Ok go ahead, hit me."
"Why?" I asked him, making him raise his head again, obviously confused why he wasn't getting beat up. I blushed and looked down. "Thanks for doing that." A sudden thought then occurred to me. "Wait, you didn't put a girly heart on it or something after it did you?" I demanded, making Takato suddenly very flustered. I narrowed my eyes. "Did you?" I demanded as Takato looked like he was a deer caught in the headlights.
"What, I don't even know what a heart looks like." Takato told me looking away suddenly. I growled, he did!
"Hey, you did, didn't you! Oh man when I get through with you, the devas will seem like cuddly little kitty cats!" I yelled at him accusingly. "And you can't say you never saw a heart before because one's on my shirt!" I yelled, pointing to my chest.
"It is impolite for a gentleman to stare at a lady's chest." Takato told me, his face still looking away from me. I felt my face turn red.
"Fine, if you want to play that way!" I growled before launching myself at him, getting him in a headlock.
"Mercy, mercy!" He yelped as I gave him a noogie.
"Is Takato going to be all right?" I heard Guilmon ask Renamon worriedly.
"Yea, he'll be fine. They're just having a lovers spat." Renamon replied coolly. My face, and Takato's too surprisingly enough, turned bright red. I instantly dropped Takato.
"RENAMON!" We both yelped as Renamon began to chuckle, with Henry and Terriermon following suit. Guilmon was too confused to understand what was going on.
XxXxXxXxXxXx
Takato and I were at the far side of the bubble plotting ways to extract our revenge on Henry, Terriermon, and Renamon when Guilmon announced we were at our destination.
"Wow this thing looks like it goes on forever." Takato whistled as he looked up at the sovereign's lair.
"You have better eyes then me, I can't see forever." Guilmon replied, flicking his tail. I was about to tell him that Takato didn't mean he could actually see forever when the doors opened up.
"Here we go." Takato called to us over the noise the door was making. I braced myself. Here we go indeed. The minute the doors opened all the way, all our Digimon started to growl.
"Woah Renamon, I haven't seen this up in arms in like forever. You ok?" I asked my partner. Her fur was standing on end and she was growling. The best way to describe it is how a dog acts when there is danger present.
"Something's here, I can feel it. It's like a powerful overpowering anger that will crush us if we let our guard down." She told us.
"Oh yea, that sounds pretty much about right." Lopmon told us before giving a little laugh that sounded like she was crying as she began to move forward again.
"You know, you'd think we'd learn to move away towards danger, not towards it at this point." Takato grumbled as she shoved his hands in his pockets.
"I guess some of us are thick headed." I replied as I put my hands behind my head. Henry gave us both a smirk.
"I can give two excellent examples." I gave the blue haired tamer a death glare that told him if he said another word he would die a slow and painful death. Just then Lopmon stopped again and we were at the foot of another big door.
"Jeez, what's with this guy and huge ass doors?" I asked the ex-deva. Lopmon shrugged before turning her attention to the closed door.
"My sovereign, please hear my humble request!" She called out to the closed door. At her words, the door opened.
"Well, it's good that he's got an open door policy." Takato tried to joke.
"Good for us, or good for him." I asked, my eye twitching as the door opened all the way.
"Sovereign…" Lopmon said quietly stepping in the room. It was a purple and red room with a giant ring in the middle and in the middle of that, a huge ass flame.
"Trespassers." The flame growled. I cocked my head slightly. The sovereign was a talking flame? "You have disturbed the lair of Zhuqiaomon, sovereign of the Digital World and protector of its inhabitants. Look upon me and tremble with fear, for in my eyes you see your own undoing." The flame roared as it turned into a fire bird. Sort of like Moltres from Pokemon was the first comparison that came to my mind.
"Ok, well I'm trembling over here." Takato whimpered and I could see his body shaking. I wonder if there was an Articuno and Zapdos look alike too…
"You got a friend of ours, give Calumon back!" Henry demanded as I was busy trying to figure out how exactly would these other sovereigns look if they were like Articuno and Zapdos…
"Such a large demand for a small creature. Why should I give him up, so you can take him back to the other world? Never! The catalyst belongs here!" Zhuqiaomon roared. I wonder if the other sovereigns are this temperamental…
"The catalyst, what do you think he means by that?" Takato asked us. Isn't a catalyst something you use in Chemistry to get a reaction or something?
"He must be talking about Calumon!" Renamon replied. I think she's the smartest one here, the only thing she really doesn't understand is human behavior.
"Even that she somewhat understands. I mean having a temperamental Tamer would do that to you." Ruki told me with a smirk.
"You're not going to scare me off!" Henry declared. Takato and I looked at each other, before nodding, reaching our silent agreement.
"What do you mean scare you off? What about us? I'm not scared of this overgrown Moltres." I told him as I put one hand on his shoulder and Takato put his hand on the Henry's other shoulder.
"Rika…Renamon…"
"Hey you didn't forget us did you? I played a few Pokemon games in my time so I know how to beat and capture a Moltres." Takato bragged giving me a wink.
"Takato…Guilmon…" Henry smiled. "All right, hope you guys know what you're getting into. After all battling a Moltres in the game and battling one in real life are two completely different things." He warned us, for once going along with our 'unique way of thinking'. "You ready to fight?" He asked Terriermon. Ah he changed so much from that pacifist I had first met…
"Anytime, anywhere." Terriermon declared.
"Then let's teach this guy a lesson he won't forget!" Henry declared, pulling out a card. Takato and I followed suit.
"Digi-Modify!" We all yelled at the same time. "Matrix Digivolution activate!" All our Digimon then digivolved to their ultimate form.
"Am I supposed to be afraid?" Zhuqiaomon sneered at us.
"No, that would just make you smart." I called out to him.
"Impudent human! You all are just wasting your time!" He roared at us as Taomon and the others flew up to meet Zhuqiaomon head on.
"I could say the same thing!" Rapidmon shot back.
"Phoenix Fire!" Zhuqiaomon roared, opening his mouth and shot out a flame, hitting our Digimon head on and knocking them to the ground. Is it just me or are fire attacks over rated?
"No, Rapidmon!" Henry called out worriedly.
"I think that really well, don't you?" Rapidmon asked weakly. That's when I noticed the a part of his back was phasing in and out, sort of like that one time Guilmon disappeared a long time ago. But when I looked again, it was fine. Was I imagining things?
"He took them down with one shot." I mused, still slightly confused.
"How can he be that powerful!" Takato demanded. I looked over at Takato out of the side of my eye. He's a freaking sovereign, that could be why.
"You Digimon depend on these human faggots for strength, but we don't need filthy weaklings in the coming battle." Zhuqiaomon sneered before attacking again. "Phoenix Fire!"
"We shall see who's weak." Taomon replied coolly, casting a barrier around her and us as Rapidmon and WarGrowlmon dodged.
"You brought the human infestation into our world, and if it crumbles, it will be your fault!" How can this guy speak while spewing flames out of his mouth!
"If we keep this up, we'll all be roasted." Takato noted worriedly.
"Taomon, we got to figure out some way to Digivolve to Mega level!" I called out to her. If we went Mega, like Takato and Guilmon then, oh we would pawn so much ass.
"I'm sorry Rika, but my hands are full trying to maintain this shield." She said slowly, obviously exerting herself to hold up the barrier, just like she said.
"If only Guilmon and I could figure out how to be Gallantmon again!" Takato said wistfully. Yes, that would be helpful. He raised his D-arc and looked at it. "But how?"
"Please figure it out quickly." I told him with a frown.
"Atomic Blaster!" I heard WarGrowlmon yell, followed by Rapidmon's Rapid Fire. I was able to see that it wasn't effective.
"The heat is like a barrier, nothing can get through it." I noted. "Quick, does anybody have a high powered hose, you know something off a fire truck would be good. Except you know, way more powerful." I asked around. Nobody answered. I was expecting that.
"Phoenix Fire!" Zhuqiaomon roared, attacking WarGrowlmon and Rapidmon. He really needs to change up his attacks. WarGrowlmon was thrown back into the barrier and popped it. Zhuqiaomon saw his chance and attacked again. WarGrowlmon rolled over quickly and blocked the attack with his body.
"Pick on somebody your own size!" Takato yelled up angrily. Rapidmon flew through the flames and got up right into Zhuqiaomon's face.
"Bunny Blast!" However just then the part I thought I saw phasing in and out simply disappeared. So I wasn't imagining things… "Oh no, not now!" Zhuqiaomon saw the cheap shot and took it, sending Rapidmon flying.
"Rapidmon!" Henry called out worriedly. Rapidmon twitched on the ground, sparks appearing out of him and different body parts.
"Without the ability to Digivolve, I'm powerless, I might as well not even be here." Lopmon sighed.
"Lopmon." Lopmon looked up at the Moltres wannabe. "You are my last remaining deva, come back to me and I'll forgive you're betrayal. Together we will destroy these traitors and disgusting humans." Zhuqiaomon offered the little rabbit.
"I can no longer serve someone who believes in violence." Lopmon told Zhuqiaomon, not even wavering a bit in her resolve. Impressive little thing.
"Then you're a traitor too." Zhuqiaomon snarled.
"Say what you will, but I will not be swayed." Lopmon declared, standing up a bit taller. Impressive little bunny, she was very brave.
"So be it. Phoenix Fire." And with that, Zhuqiaomon attacked Lopmon. WarGrowlmon then blocked the attack with his body.
"Hot, hot!" He yelped as he held up against the flame.
"Thank you WarGrowlmon." Lopmon thanked the cyborg dinosaur. WarGrowlmon sure could stand up to the guy.
"Impressive." I told Takato nodding my head. "WarGrowlmon really has a high tolerance for this doesn't he?" Takato scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
"I guess. I'm thinking the fact he also spews fire type attacks is also helping." Takato told me as he watched his partner worriedly.
"Had enough maggots?" I am still failing to see how he can talk while spewing flames!
"Never!" I heard Rapidmon yell and a missile whizzed by my head and hit Zhuqiaomon's heat shield. Zhuqiaomon stopped his attack and looked over at the fallen Rapidmon. The rabbit was in bad shape. "I mean it's not like we like being bruised, it's just that…well…you know what we mean! We'll never give up, even if…" Rapidmon winced in pain.
"Rapidmon! Back off, you're hurt too badly, if you sustain any more damage, your data will be destroyed." Taomon told him worriedly.
"Back off? There's no way I'm going to let this overgrown canary stop me!" Rapidmon shot back, still withering in pain. I frowned. I understood his feelings exactly, but he's at his limits.
"What was I thinking?" I looked over to Henry who looked like he was sucker punched. "I mean I knew you were hurt but all I could think about was Suzy. How could I send you into battle like that?" Takato and I looked at each other as Henry started to cry. "I guess I'm about the worst Digimon Tamer there ever was." I was about to suggest to Takato we hit Henry to knock him out of his funk but Rapidmon beat us to the punch.
"No! It's not your fault!" Rapidmon tried telling his tamer, but Henry just wouldn't listen.
"I shouldn't have pushed you to fight, I should have found another way!" Henry started to cry harder.
"Listen to me! It was the bird's fault and I won't let him win!" And with that, Rapidmon got up and flew at Zhuqiaomon again.
"You still try to oppose me?" Zhuqiaomon asked coldly.
"I'll never stop trying!" Rapidmon shot back.
"As you wish! Phoenix Fire!" The attack his Rapidmon head on and Rapidmon de-digivolved back into Terriermon and landed on the floor. Henry ran up and scooped up the rabbit in his arms.
"Terriermon!"
"Sorry Henry, I tried. Bird brain was just too much for me." Terriermon apologized.
"Don't be sorry Terriermon." Henry told his partner. "I was the one who failed you." Terriermon just laughed at that.
"What are you Henry, the center of the universe? What do you think the sun won't rise if you're not to greet it there or something?" Terriermon asked his tamer with a smile. I pointed at the scene and looked at Takato confused. What was he talking about? Takato shrugged.
"What are you talking about?" Henry asked the little rabbit.
"Just look behind you Henry." Henry turned and looked at us. I waved at him, giving him a grin. "You don't have to do anything by yourself. They're all here to help you, let them." Just then Suzy came flying into the room. No seriously, she came flying into the room.
"That's not fair! I want to fly!" I yelled, pointing my finger at the little girl who just landed next to Lopmon.
"Suzy?!" Henry asked amazed.
"What are you doing here Suzy?" Lopmon asked surprised.
"You called me, didn't you silly?" Suzy answered cheerfully.
"I called you?" Lopmon repeated confused before folding her arms across her chest and looked down. "You know you may be right." But that doesn't answer the more important question, how can she fly?!
"I guess the demanding big brother voice doesn't work so well huh?" Terriermon wise cracked before he stood up. "Well there is no way I can stop fighting if Suzy is going to be in danger."
"Terriermon, you can't." Henry tried pleading with the little rabbit.
"Remember what you told me if I ever got lost? Meet back at your house." I am failing to see where this conversation is heading…
"That's right, we'll all meet back there." Henry agreed.
"Lopmon is coming too, right?" Suzy asked her partner happily. Lopmon seemed surprised at the invite.
"I can come too?" She asked in awe. Suzy nodded her head happily.
"We just got to get past that Moltres!" Takato declared valiantly. "Come on Rika, let's put our endless hours of playing video games into good use!" He called out to me, pumping his fist.
"Yea!" I agreed with him, throwing both of my hands up in the air.
"I seriously wonder about you sometimes." Ruki sighed.
"Can you tell your friends that you got beaten by a Moltres huh Henry?" Terriermon asked his tamer.
"Not a chance. Let's do this together!" And with that being said, a giant shaft of like, kind of like the one Guilmon and Takato were in before they turned into Gallantmon appeared. When it dimmed down it was replaced by what looked like a giant green robot dog with missiles. All right!
"Another biomerge…" Taomon said in awe. I took out my D-arc, let's see what this guy is called.
"MegaGargomon, special attack, Gargo Missiles!" I read the data.
"Jeez, he should be called humongous, giant, seven stories tall, missile from the looks of it." Takato whistled as he leaned back just to see the top of MegaGargomon's head.
"Dude, way too long to say." I told him with a frown. "Plus I would never remember that."
"Digimon and humans Digivolving together? This is an abomination! You have tainted the very core of the Digital World and you will pay." Zhuqiaomon snarled.
'Dude he's just jealous.' I thought with a grin.
"Pretty much." Ruki agreed with me. Zhuqiaomon spread his wings and flames came out.
"Decimation Blast!" This pretty much destroyed his ring and the room started to crumble. "Now where you will run?" And with that being said, he began to laugh evilly. Taomon put a spell around Lopmon, Suzy, Takato, and I.
"Is that all you got? And you call us pathetic." MegaGargomon shot back and he flew up into Zhuqiaomon's face.
"You dare talk back to me?" Zhuqiaomon roared.
"Yep, and I'll do it again too." I've been thinking lately, our witty comebacks really aren't all that witty. "Power Pummel!" MegaGargomon yelled, punching Zhuqiaomon in the face and caused him to cry out in pain. Oh well, at least we can kick ass. Speaking of which, MegaGargomon started to unleash some type of martial arts moves. I'm guessing that's Henry's doing, I do believe he studies tie chi or something like that. Well MegaGargomon was done with that, he let loose a bunch of missiles.
"Argh, Phoenix Fire!" Zhuqiaomon roared, unleashing his signature attack.
"You think that scares us now?" MegaGargomon asked. "Try this on for size! Gargo Missile!" Two missiles then shot out from MegaGargomon's shoulders and cut through the Phoenix Fire and hit Zhuqiaomon head on. When the dust cleared, Zhuqiaomon was on the ground, badly bruised.
"You think you can defeat me that easily…woah!" Zhuqiaomon started to ask before the floor caved in from underneath him.
"Well, since you put it that way, YES!" MegaGargomon yelled into the wreckage.
"And he fainted, too bad we couldn't have captured him!" Takato grinned. I winked at him.
"It's ok, I'm saving my Master Ball for Mewtwo anyways." I told him.
"You can stop with the Pokemon references now you two!" Henry called out to us as he and Terriermon separated again and he peered down the hole.
"You're no fun." Takato whined before smiling again. "Thanks Henry, we would have lost without you two."
"Not at all, we are a team aren't we?" Henry asked us with a smile.
"Are you going to be sappy all day?" Terriermon asked his partner, pretending to barf.
"Terriermon." Henry sighed, lightly knocking on his partner's head before smiling. "Come on, let's go find Calumon." He started to walk away from the hole until beams of red light emitted from it and Zhuqiaomon appeared out of the wreckage, laughing dementedly. Damn it!
"Surprised, you dare believe you could defeat me! Ha!" Zhuqiaomon called out to us arrogantly. "I am a sovereign, there will be nothing left but ashes when I'm done! Prepare to meet your doom!"
Takato sighed and turned to me.
"You might have to use that Masterball after Rika." He told me with a sigh.
"Yea…" I replied with a sigh. "Too bad, I really wanted to save it for Mewtwo."
Tetra: Just what this fic needed, a reference to Pokemon.
Ruki44: This was a pain in the ass to write since I had to write Zhuqiaomon so many times. I had to look it up since apparently Zudamon isn't the soverigns name, it's Joe's partner ultimate form.
Ruki: Yea I remember that. You made that mistake in the Furbies chapter in A Day in the Life.
Ruki44: Yea....anyways please review!
