Chapter 25: Lilithmon the Demon of Lust
I DO NOT OWN DIGIMON
With the digidestined at Lucemon's castle the demon lord of pride has other plans, he is interested in fighting the leader of the royal knights who is currently using the powers of hope to amplify his powers. Daisuke has the teams in the outer towers of the castle split up and they each attack a certain part of the castle where they know that they are going to have to fight one of the 3 demon lords. Daisuke's team went after Daemon while Rika's team attacked Beelzemon. They try antagonizing the demon lords hoping that they will attack their own. With Beelzemon and Daemon at equal strength as the digidestined Daisuke's team comes up with the plan on making the demon lord of wrath chase them despite Juri's bad feelings about the whole plan.
When the digidestined arrive at Beelzemon's tower they are right in time for Beelzemon to use his most powerful attack which is heading straight for Juri. Saber Leomon intercepts the attack and the force of the attack is too much for the mighty lion and he breaks up into data which Beelzemon absorbs. Stunned at what happened the digidestined and Beelzemon don't know what just happened being it happened all too fast. Daemon is furious that Beelzemon could destroy the digidestined but is doing nothing at all. He decides to attack the demon lord of envy even though he is unaware of the new powers the demon possesses and finds out that his attack didn't even faze his brother. Beelzemon warns the digidestined that they must all attack at once to defeat the demon lord of wrath in which they all do. After the battle Beelzemon gives up the power knowing that no good has come from it and he leaves to find his partners once again. We now find Sora's group taking on Lilithmon and Lilithmon has made it so Holy Goddmon is being attacked by Crusadermon, Giga Seadramon, and Ancient Kazemon while she is attacking Crimsonmon.
"Sora/Mimi are you girls alright?" Tony asked while dodging Amanda & Jessica
"Well Lilithmon is not helping the matter, what she is doing reminds me of how Puppetmon was able to make friends fight each other." Mimi commented
"How are we going to break the trance that they are in?" Sora asked
"I don't know but don't give up hope!" Tony encouraged
Suddenly Lilithmon blasted Crimsonmon into one of the pillars holding up the structure.
"Tony look out!" Sora yelled as stone started to rain over him
Tony was able to barely dodge the falling stones from crushing him and continued to try to break the trance that the girls were under.
"It seems if I block one attack I get blasted from the other 2 and they are not letting me use my holy light to break them from the trance. Tony you are going to have to knock out the girls and maybe it will give me enough time to free our friends from this witch's spell." Holy Goddmon informed
"How do I do that when I'm trying to not hurt them? Sora/Mimi I need your help!" Tony pleaded
"I'm sorry but we are busy avoiding Lady Devimon!" Mimi shouted back
"Amanda it is me Tony don't you remember me?" Tony wondered
"Ha you are the enemy and you will be destroyed! I was told that you would try any tricks to get me not to achieve my main goal." Amanda spat
"You killed my boyfriend Davis and you will pay for what you did!" Jessica cried
"I didn't kill Davis he is fine and he is helping us defeat the demon lords." Tony stated
"LIAR!" Jessica accused
While they were dealing with their own problems with Lilithmon we find that the digidestined fighting the nightmare soldiers are running into similar problems as well.
"Susanoomon is it just me or has the nightmare soldiers gotten stronger in the past ten minutes?" Ancient Sphinxmon questioned
"It seems that they are getting their power from a different source of power." Ancient Megatheriummon informed
"Not only are they drawing the energy out of the elements but it seems that they are drawing the energy elsewhere. If we could find where they are getting their powers from and destroy it then maybe we could destroy them as well." Ancient Beetlemon suggested
"If you could provide a distraction I could take half of the team and try to find their power source." Tigerramon offered
"How long are you going to need?" Susanoomon asked
"I don't know as long as we could get because we are going to have to find the power source." Tigerramon stated
"Ok! Anthony take a team of 7 with you and find the power source, my team is going to hold them off as long as we could so please hurry." Susanoomon stated
"Ok! Hannah, Kyle, Ashley, Henry, Catherine, and Kazu you are with me we have to find where this power source is and destroy it in order to have a fighting chance." Anthony informed
Susanoomon and his team was busy distracting the nightmare soldiers hoping that they will not follow Anthony and his team while they went to look for the power source that is feeding the nightmare soldiers.
"Hey guys is it just me or is it getting really cold the further we head in this direction?" Ashley inquired
"You are right we must be heading towards the power source. Be prepared for whatever we run into." Anthony warned
The further they got the more colder it got until Kazu spotted something in the distance.
"Hey guys look up ahead!" Kazu pointed out
"Oh wow it is beautiful!" Hannah stated
"That must be the power source; don't go near it." Anthony warned but was too late for Hannah, Catherine and Kazu touched it and disappeared with in the egg.
"Hannah!" Kyle yelled
"Kyle stay back, it is looking to add more victims we have to destroy the egg in order to save them." Anthony informed
Suddenly the egg started to emit cold blasts which managed to knock the remaining members of the team to the ground then Hannah, Catherine, and Kazu came out of the egg and started to attack Anthony and the others.
"Stormmon/Windmon it is time for the digidestined to suffer the fate for disturbing the corrupted power. Attack!" Hannah yelled
"Get them Gryphonmon!" Catherine encouraged
"Andromon we can't let them win! This time we are going to be their worst nightmare." Kazu added
Their Digimon partners went forth and attacked Anthony and his team not allowing them near the power source. Not knowing what to do they decided to defend themselves hoping that they would be able to restore them back to their former selves. While this was going on Daisuke's team felt that their friends were in trouble and decided to go help them out.
"Hey guys what is going on here?" Daisuke asked
"We need to destroy that power source it is controlling Hannah, Catherine, and Kazu not to mention that it is supplying the nightmare soldiers a lot of power and it is too much for us to handle by ourselves." Anthony explained
"Rika take a small team and assist Susanoomon and his team while we figure this out." Koushiro suggested
While this was going on Juri used her digivice and all her hopes then walked towards the corrupted power. When she was close enough she activated her digivice hoping it would weaken the power that was coming out of the egg. Suddenly a bright blast of yellow light shot out at the egg and it started to weaken the egg. Daisuke then joined her and hoped for a miracle which caused his digivice to emit a golden light that shot out at the egg which also started to weaken the powers of the egg. Hannah and her corrupted team tried to prevent them from destroying the egg but Henry, Suzie, Rika, & Anthony was holding them off while the others proceeded to do the same thing as Juri & Daisuke. The corrupted egg couldn't withstand the amount of light that was coming at it and the next thing anyone knows the egg blows up which sends a shockwave at all the digidestined. Being Juri used a great amount of energy to destroy the egg she became too weak and passed out due to the lack of energy. When the egg exploded Hannah, Catherine, and Kazu woke up from the trance they were in and Susanoomon noticed that it was no longer as cold as it was a moment ago.
Susanoomon told his team that it was time to gain the upper hand and ordered his team to attack the nightmare soldiers. His team also noticed that the nightmare soldiers were not as strong as they were moments ago and decided to finally end this nightmare once and for all. Daisuke and his team went to assist Susanoomon while Rika stayed behind to keep an eye on Juri, Hannah, Catherine, and Kazu being they had no energy to move. The nightmare soldiers kept coming despite they lacked the power to fight the digidestined and it seemed that as soon as they defeated one of the nightmare soldiers 20 more would take its place. Koushiro suggested to give all of the energy to Susanoomon so he has the power to end it all right now. The Digimon then gave Susanoomon all their energy and reverted back to rookie/human while Susanoomon unleashed his celestial blade and heavenly thunder combo attack which was enough to stop the nightmare soldiers once and for all. While this was going on Sora's team was still struggling with Lilithmon.
"You digidestined are going to have to do better than that if you want to fight me. It is beautiful how a simple mind trick could turn friends against each other." Lilithmon taunted
"Hey wench why don't you fight someone who is not affected by your parlor tricks." Kaden yelled
"How dare you call me a wench you will pay for that, I don't care if you are the child of darkness no one gets away with calling me that." Lilithmon spat
"Then how about we call you an ugly hag?" Alyssa taunted
"I am not ugly I am beautiful." Lilithmon justified
"If you are beautiful then have you looked in a mirror lately?" Mimi added
"If you want beautiful then maybe you should look at Ophanimon! She is beautiful but she is not obsessed with how she looks. She doesn't try to be beautiful she just is and she spreads her light throughout the worlds." Sora commented
"You play mind tricks on people to make it look like you are beautiful but you are the ugliest creature on that ever existed." Tony shouted
With all this taunting Lilithmon is losing control of Ancient Kazemon, Amanda, Jessica, and their Digimon. Holy Goddmon is able to summon his powers and purify the girls which petrifies Lilithmon which she is not able to react to the attacks from Crimsonmon, Dianamon, Lucemon, Holy Goddmon, Giga Seadramon, Crusadermon, and Ancient Kazemon. The combination attacks are strong enough to stop Lilithmon once and for all. As soon as the 6th medallion goes out the outer castle starts to collapse and a barrier surrounds Lucemon's chamber. Sora and her team gets out of the castle before it comes down upon their heads and joins the others knowing that Alphamon, Omnimon, Gallantmon, Taichi, Yamato, Hikari, Ophanimon, Cyberdramon, Takeru, and Hallow Angemon are all alone with the most powerful demon lord.
