21. Chapter

Surrounded by Darkness, The Primary Village is in danger!

"So, we are in the Forest Area?" asked Suzie.
"That's right!" replied Kotemon. "But I wonder where the others are."
"Ditto." said Suzie with a sad expression. They then heard someone singing and rose their head, surprised as they saw a golden monkey with a cape and a crown.
"Say helooo to KingEtemon, the King of all Kings!" sung KingEtemon. [A/N: He's baaaaack!]

Alphamon, BlackAgumon, Takuto, Akira, Guilmon, Beelzemon, Lilithmon, Arisa and Akari got out of the Data Stream which brought them to the Forest Area.

"Alright, now our primary mission is to find Lucemon and..." Alphamon got cut off by Beelzemon.
"Yeah, yeah, we know that already." said Beelzemon. Guilmon sniffed the air.
"Hey, do you sense something...burned?" he asked. Everyone looked at him and they then noticed a smoke coming from a part of the forest.
"Let's go check it!" said Akira.

"Ok, Imperialdramon, we got out of it." said Dean as they got out of the Data Stream. He, Hikaru, Elecmon, Miko, Monodramon, Satoshi, ExAgumon and Andromon (Crainamon's lower level) were inside the dome of Imperialdramon Dragon Mode and were now flying above Alpha D-City.

"Hey guys, seems like we found the rest of the team." said Hikaru as she looked down. At Alpha D-City, the group got joined by Itsuki and Datamon.

"So, you didn't see her?" asked Taiki. Marcus shook his head.
"I'm sure she's fine. Not far away, there's the Primary Village. Maybe she and Kotemon landed there."
"Then I'm going there." said Taiki. Bipp, bipp... Thomas took out the commuication device.

"Yes, alright. We'll come there as soon we can." said Thomas and put the device away.
"What is it?" asked Yoshi.
"Bad news guys. The Real World got attacked." explained Thomas.
"Ow great. So, I guess we should then go back." said Marcus. He wanted to stay in the DigiWorld.

"Huh?" They all looked over to Imperialdramon who landed. As everyone got out, he de-digivoluved to Veemon. Andromon digivoluved back to Crainamon.
"Hey Hikaru, Dean! He, he..." greeted Kenny. The group gathered around.
"Guys, Leviamon's dead." said Crainamon.
"Just as Belphemon." said Akita.
"Barbamon's dead too." said Coronamon.
"That are good news, but here are the bad. The Real World got attacked." said Yoshi. "A part should go back to the Real World and help them."
"Well, I'm staying here." said Marcus.
"Marcus!" hissed Yoshi. "You are a Ranger and it's your duty to listen to what our Commander has to say."
"Yoshi, I think Marcus and Agumon will be much more usefull here then in the Real World." said Thomas. He looked around. "Anyone who wants to go back?"
"Well, we're going back for sure." said Itsuki and Datamon nodded.
"We're going back to. I told my mum that I'll be back by dinner." said Miko. "I had no idea that'll stay a little bit longer here."
"Yoshi, Lalamon, I and Gaomon are going back also." said Thomas.
"We're going to." said Satoshi. ExAgumon nodded.
"I'm sure you'll need a strong Royal Knigth." he said.
"Two Royal Knights." said Kudamon who runned towards them. Majiramon was also with him.
"Alright, two Royal Knights." said ExAgumon.
"Taiki, why don't you and Agumon go too." suggested Rene.
"What? And leave Suzie alone? No Way!" said Taiki.
"You mustn't worry. We're gonna find her and Kotemon, I sweare. And we'll bring them savily back home." said Rene.
"Rene's right. We should go back. Sora, Biyomon, Matt and Gabumon are sure worried about us." said Agumon. "And I'm really tired."
"I don't know..." said Taiki.
"Taiki, if Rene's promise wasn't enough, I give you mine too." Wizardmon stepped out. "Crusadermon's my best friend and I don't want to see him die again. Neither Suzie. No one." he whispered the last sentence.
"I'm still not sure..." Taiki thought for a bit and then sighed. "Good. We're coming too."
"That's the spirit!" Akita taped Taiki's back.
"We'll, seems like I'm not needed anymore. I better go back." said Majiramon.
"Wait Majiramon, did you see any of the other RK's?" asked Crainamon.
"Yes, Duftmon, Examon and UlfoceVeedramon are at Lord Azulongmon's Castle." said the Dragon Deva.
"Then I'm going with you." said Crainamon. He and Majiramon then flied away.
"Ok, follow me. I'll activate the portal which'll lead us to the Real World." said Itsuki. Datamon, Yoshi, Lalamon, Thomas, Gaomon, Taiki, Agumon, Kudamon, Miko, Monodramon, Satoshi and ExAgumon followed him.
"And we should better get going to the Primary Village. Something tells me that there'll be some action." said Marcus. Agumon, Akita, Dorumon, Kenny, Terriermon, Hikaru, Elecmon, Dean, Veemon, Rene, Renamon, Taito, Shoutmon, Shawn, Coronamon, Noah and Wizardmon followed him.

Daemon was angry. His primary relief turned into angrines as he realized that he couldn't beat the Celestials. He flied upwards, above the forest and looked around, noticing the Primary Village.

"Hm, now let's have some fun." he smirked and flied towards the Village.

"Have you found them? Calu!" asked Calumon as Ken, Wormmon, Ami, Opossumon, Sara, Lunamon, Nanami and DemiDevimon came back. Ken shook his head.
"Nope. They got caputured by a Data Stream Calumon. We have no idea where they got transported." said Ken. Calumon's ears shrinked.
"Aw, com'n. Like they don't know how to watch out for themselves. They're sure in better condition then we are." said Ami. Swanmon and the Messanger DemiDevimon walked towards them.
"Any news about the others?" asked Swanmon.
"No." replied Sara.
"Evil Inferno!" A heat wave hit the ground in front of them. As the group rose their heads they saw Daemon above them. The Messanger DemiDevimon quickly hid behind Swanmon as he noticed the Demon Lord of Wrath.
"Aw, great..." muttered Ami.
"What do you want Daemon?" asked Swanmon.
"To destroy this place." said Daemon.
"Over our dead bodies." yelled DemiDevimon. The Tamers rose their Digivices.

[Shinka Theme One Vision/Eine Vision by Digimon Tamers plays]

"DigiModify, Super Digivolution activate!"

CHO-SHINKA!

"Opossumon, Cho-Shinka!"

Opossumon's digivolution was smiliar to the digivolution in Digimon Xros Wars Hunters. He got covered in a circle of energy, changing his shape.

"Cho-Hakkaimon!"

WARP DIGIVOLTION!

"Wormmon, Warp Digivolution to..."
"Lunamon, Warp Digivolution to..."
"DemiDevimon, Warp Digivolution to..."

They all got covered in coocon shaped DigiEggs in their respective colors.

"GranKuwagamon!"
"Dianamon!"
"MaloMyotismon!"

"Swanmon, you better go and help the baby's. Calumon, DemiDevimon you too." ordered Ken. "We'll try to distract Daemon and get him out of the Primary Village."

Dianamon and Cho-Hakkaimon jumped on GranKuwagamon's back while MaloMyotismon levitated next to them.
"Take this! Arrow of Artemis!" Dianamon pulled a faintly sparkling arrow of ice from the quill-like protrusions on her back, then fired it at Daemon. The Demon Lord of Wrath easily destroyed it with his claw.
"Kyoushin Homuran!" Cho-Hakkaimon jumped off GranKwagamon and swung his Roketto Ding at Daemon. Daemon escaped and for in the next second he catched the hammer, charging up his own energy.
"Evil Flapping!" He unleashed a beam of unholy energy at Cho-Hakkaimon who yelped in pain and hit the ground hardly.
"Ow, that's bad. Calu." said Calumon. He and DemiDevimon hid behind a tree.
"Indeed. Lord Daemon is really strong. He even can reach the Super Ultimate Level." said DemiDevimon.
"We have to entice him out of the Primary Village!" said Dianamon.
"Leave it to me." said MaloMyotismon. "Screaming Darkness!" He fired an extremely high-temperature beam from Sodom and Gomorrah on his shoulders. The attack hit Daemon, however it didn't leave any damage on him.
"Com'n catch me!" yelled MaloMyotismon.
"Grr, I'll show you!" Daemon followed MaloMyotismon, who, together with Dianamon and GranKuwagamon, flied out of the Primary Village. As they were out of the sight of the Village they turned to the Demon Lord of Wrath.

"Screaming Darkness!" "Arrow of Artemis!"
"Catastrophe!"

The three attacks hit Daemon directly. However, he soon emerged out of the smoke and turned to the Digimon.

"Evil Inferno!" He attacked with extremely high-temperature hellfire that burned up everything around him. GranKwagamon, Dianamon and MaloMyotismon, who got hit by the attack, landed on the ground which was also burned up by the attack. Soon, Cho-Hakkaimon, their Tamers, Calumon and the Messanger DemiDevimon joined them.

"Now I'm mad! Dadada Minchi!" Cho-Hakkaimon runned towards Daemon, but before he could do anything, Daemon countered. "Evil Inferno!"

The wave hit Cho-Hakkaimon directly and threw him back at a tree.

"Ha, your angrines is nothing compared to my Wrath. You have no chance against me." said Daemon. He glanced over to the group and noticed Calumon.

-Hmm, I can sense a great power coming from that Digimon.- he though. Then he recognized the Zero Unit and a devious smirk formed on his lips.

"Take this!" KingEtemon threw a tree which was burning at Crusadermon.
"Fist of Athena!" Crusadermon shot sonic booms at the tree, destroying it.
"If you accept me as your King I won't attack you anymore. Maybe you can become my Prime Minister." said KingEtemon.

"Ow, shad up you monkey-butt!"

"Huh?" Crusadermon and Suzie turned around and saw Beelzemon, Alphamon, Guilmon, Takuto, Akira, BlackAgumon, Arisa, Lilithmon and Akari poping out of the bushes. Crusadermon's eyes wided in shock as he saw the two Demon Lords, while on Suzie's face formed a smile.
"Yay, Arisa, Akari, Akira and Takuto are here!" she turned to KingEtemon. "Now we'll gonna beat you, you monkey king."
"KingEtemon's mine name!" hissed KingEtemon and turned to the group. "Heh, so we meet again."
"Do you know him?" asked Akira.
"Unfortantly, that's that Etemon guy who I and Akari beat at the Karaoke Contest." said Arisa.
"He's a bad loser." said Lilithmon and sighed.

"Let's check him out: KingEtemon, level mega. Attribute Virus, type Puppet Digimon. It styles itself among other Etemon as the "King of Etemon", and after all, it is an ultimate form that is said to be a being set at the top. It gets even more carried away and calls itself the "King of Kings". It is snazzily dressed in its "Monkey Suit", engraved with the characters "Great King" on its chest, but although it swaggers around with the affectation of a star, it only earns derision from other Digimon." read Takuto on his D-Power.

"Ok, I'm gonna finish this in a few seconds." Beelzemon stepped out crackling his knuckles.
"Ha, now I'm gonna beat you. Don't think that I forgot our last encounter." said KingEtemon.
"Neither did I and to be honest, it's a bit irritating to always make you shad up." Beelzemon pulled out a gun. "Well, let's finish this. I have better things to do then battle you."
"Ow yeah! King Mon-kick!" KingEtemon rushed over to Beelzemon to deliver a mighty kick. Beelzemon just hmpfed and stepped out of the way so KingEtemon bumped into a tree. Everyone sweatdropped and some of them started to giggle.

"Ugh, stop laughing!" yelled KingEtemon. Beelzemon smirked and aimed the Berenja Gun at the moneky Digimon. KingEtemon startled. "Huh, err, can we talk about it instead fighting?"
"Double Impact!" Instead answering, Beelzemon simply fired two rounds at KingEtemon. The bullets went through his chest and with a yell, he faded away into data partickles.
"Sheesh, that was short." commented Akira.
"Indeed." nodded BlackAgumon.

"Metal Wolf Claw!" MetalGarurumon spewed cold air at absolute zero that completely freezed his foe. A Parasimon. Or better to say, a group of Parasimon.
"Wing Blade!" Garudamon unleashed a vacuum blade at super-speed, chopping up the Parasimon. "Kahuna Waves!" MarineAngemon fired bubble-shaped hearts at the nearest Parasimon. Matt, Sora and Sam cheered their partners up. Soon they got joined by Thomas and his group. Satsuma told them that there's a Parasimon Invasion in the Real World, and, they also found out that the Parasimon were the culprits for destroying Arisa's school.

"Ready?" Thomas rose his D-Power. Taiki, Yoshi, Miko, Itsuki and Satoshi rose their D-Powers as well. Kudamon couldn't join them since he was too injured to fight.

WARP DIGIVOLUTION!

"Gaomon, Warp digivolution to..."
"Agumon, Warp Digivolution to..."
"Lalamon, Warp Digivolution to..."
"ExAgumon, Warp Digivolution to..."
"Monodramon, Warp Digivolution to..."

They all got covered in DigiEggs like coocons in their respective colors.

"MirageGaogamon!"
"WarGreymon!"
"Rosemon!"
"Omnimon!"
"Justimon!"

"Thanks for your help!" said Sam.
"Hey, where's Suzie?" Matt asked Taiki.
"Well, I had found her but I lost her thanks to a Data Stream." said Taiki.
"Oh, and you left your own daughter just to help us?" said Sora angrily.
"Sora, it's our fault not Taiki's that he's here. He wanted to search for Suzie." explained Yoshi. "Thank Godness, she got her own, really powerfull Digimon Partner so we don't have to worry much. And the ones who stayed at the DigiWorld are searching for her."
"If that's so..." Sora turned to the Parasimon. "We should then concentrate on those parasites."

"Let's see: Parasimon, level Mega, atributte virus. Parasite Digimon. It is a special Digimon that can't survive without leeching off of other beings, even though it is a Mega. Parasimon is powerless when by itself, but when it gathers in numbers, it can easily defeat Champion Digimon. When Parasimon leeches off of another, it can draw out the host Digimon's abilities to their utmost limit, exhibiting a dreadful power. Also, it can amplify the host's desires, and it is capable of taking advantage of those weaknesses. The existence of Parasite Digimon types other than Parasimon has been confirmed, and the influence of Parasite Digimon, in addition to viralization, is considered the cause of berserk Digimon." read Satoshi on his D-Power.
"Just watch out that the Parasimon don't get you." said Thomas.

"Yes, Master! Double Crescent Mirage!" MirageGaogamon fired crescent moon-shaped shock-waves from both hands.
"Forbidden Temptation!" Rosemon fired a beam covered with rose petals.
"Great Tornado!" WarGreymon spun at tremendous speed like a tornado and launched himself at the Parasimon.
"Thunderclap!" Justimon slamed the Accel Arm to the ground, generating shockwaves.
"Supreme Cannon!" Omnimon freezed the Parasimon with frigid, absolute zero shots that he fired from the "Garuru Cannon".

They managed to destroy some of the Parasimon, but new joined the battle.

"Ok, Datamon, now show'm whatcha got!" said Itsuki.
"Sure thing Boss! Digital Bomb!" Datamon fired several computer viruses from his fingers, which deleted the Parasimon.

"Kahuna Waves!"
"Metal Wolf Claw!"
"Wing Blade!"

MarineAngemon, Garudamon and MetalGarurumon destroyed some of the Parasimon, but they keept on poping out.

-Damn, where the heck are they coming from?- thought Thomas, clenching his teeth.

Crusadermon stepped in front of Suzie protectivily, eyes fixed on the two Demon Lords. He was confused and he had no idea what to do. He growled at Beelzemon.

"Aw, com'n stop growlin'. You sound like a dog." he said and he seemd to expect from Crusadermon to bark at him.

"Arisa!" Suzie runned towards the older girl and hugged her much to Crusadermon's surpriese.
"Hey, Suzie, what are you doing here? Where are the others?" asked Arisa.
"We got seperated by a Data Stream." said Suzie.
"Then you have luck that you bumped into us." said Akari.

"Can someone please explain me what's going on here!" yelped Crusadermon. Alphamon walked over to him and pated his back.
"It's great to meet you finnaly. I'm Alphamon, the new leader of the Royal Knights." said Alphamon.
"New leader?" asked Crusadermon. "And what's with Omnimon?"
"He got a human partner." said Alphamon.
"Hey, Crusadermon, remember me? I'm Gallantmon's lower form." said Guilmon. Crusadermon nodded.
"Yeah I do. Nice to meet you again." he then turned to the Demon Lords. "And what are those two doing here? Shouldn't we fight them?"
"Well..."
"Duh, yes Pinky." Beelzemon cut Alphamon off. "You're really stupid. If you didn't get it yet, we got into the situation to work in the same team due a few acidents."
"In other words, we want to stop Lucemon." said Lilithmon. Crusadermon looked over to Arisa, Akari who were standing next to their partners.
"And you two...are you..." Crusadermon couldn't finish the sentence. It was just unbeliveable.
"I'm Arisa Bunya, and I'm Beelzemon's partner." said Arisa.
"Name's Akari Inoue and I'm Lilithmon's partner." Akari introduced herself.
"Okay..." muttered Crusadermon.
"And I'm Takuto Satome. Guilmon's Tamer." said Takuto.
"And don't forget us. I'm Akira Tatekawa and BlackAgumon's mine partner." said Akira.

Guilmon's pupils suddenly shrinked and he growled, looking upwards. Everyone looked up and saw Lucemon Chaos Mode floating above them.

"So, I was right. You got human partners. Traitors!" he said and then looked over to Alphamon, Takuto and Guilmon. "And I'm not finished yet with you."

"Lucemon Chaos Mode. Level ultimate, attribute virus, type Demon Lord Digimon. One of the "Seven Great Demon Lords", it represents the Sun and the sin of Pride. It is the strongest of the group, and possesses both the divine and the diabolic. It instigated a rebellion in the far-flung past, and so it was sealed in the Dark Area along with many other Demon Lord Digimon. Its power exceeds that of Megas, and is said to rival that of the existence called "God" as well. It has a contradictory existence, in that one side of it loves all things, as God does, while the other is trying to destroy the whole world, as the Devil does. Hence, once it destroys this world, it intends to create a fresh new world." read Akira on his D-Power.

"We're neither finished with you." Takuto rose his D-Power. Akira rose his D-Power as well.

WARP DIGIVOLUTION!

"Guilmon, Warp Digivolution to..."
"BlackAgumon, Warp Digivolution to..."

Both got covered in their respective colored DigiEgg cocoons.

"Gallantmon!"
"BlackWarGreymon!"

Gallantmon whistled and soon Grani joined them. Suzie went behind Arisa, while Crusadermon, Alphamon, Gallantmon, BlackWarGreymon, Lilithmon and Beelzemon stepped out.

That's it guys. The last two battles against the Demon Lords. How will it end? Stay tuned for the next episode of Digimon Tamers Awake of the Demon Lords!

Hi, Lilithmon is speaking. This time we'll battle Lucemon. We just have to defead him. Even if it means that I must sacrisfice myself. (That reminds me on a part of the prophecy). Anyways, Marcus' and Karin's team will join Ken's group in the battle against Daemon who'll reach his next level. Neither the group in the Real World will have it easy against the Parasimon.
