21: I'm going on vacation next week and will be unable to upload another chapter come this weekend.

Sponsor: What about me? Do I get a vacation?

21: Don't be silly. You're too incompetent to get vacation time.

Sponsor (mumbles): Talk about the pot calling the kettle black...

21: Sorry, didn't catch that.

Sponsor: I said, the21stMartian does not own Digimon, so no suing permitted.

21: That's better. Alright, here's the next installment of my story namely...

Episode 38: When Universes Collide part one: Divide and Destroy

(Dan): George woke up and told us about the journey of our evil counterparts, but then went catatonic again. Koromon, the digivolved form of Botamon, of all people, told us that there was nothing we could do but pray that George had the courage to do what needed to be done. Whatever he did it worked and Koromon warp digivolved to WarGreymon. Although George was now mentally fine, his body was still beaten from his battle with Dark George. Azulongmon told us we had to hurry, so we'll be going into battle without him…I know we can win!!!

"Good luck to all of you!!!!" said George weakly.

He and Azulongmon watched as the others departed. A look of concern crossed the goggled teen's face.

"I'm sure they'll be fine. Right now you need some rest," Azulongmon remarked.

-------------

The Digidestined had been wandering for a while, guided only by a sixth sense in WarGreymon, who seemed to know where BlackWarGreymon was.

"If you can sense your counterpart, why can't I sense mine?" Dan inquired, befuddled.

The orange warrior shrugged his shoulders. "I'm not sure, maybe it has to do with being a higher level digimon. After all, that requires a lot of energy, so it's bound to be detected by someone with a similar energy type. Of course that would mean he knows where I am, so we better be careful," he replied.

-------------

In BlackWarGreymon's citadel…

BlackWarGreymon launched a negative energy blast at a nearby console destroying it out of frustration.

"NO!!! Those bungling idiots have somehow managed to create the one thing that could possibly stop me, and he's heading this way!!!" he roared.

The counterparts of Dan and Jimmy came in, they were snacking.

"What's the matter, we thought we heard some yelling…" Dan's counterpart remarked casually munching on a few more chips.

"My counterpart is coming, and we can assume your own counterparts are coming with them. Assemble everyone! We must prepare for their arrival!!!" shouted the dark warrior.

"Would their leader be coming with them, because we seem to be short one leader…" Jimmy's foil inquired, eating another cookie.

BlackWarGreymon sighed. "I think not, even if he somehow managed to destroy his counterpart, our George inflicted too much damage for him to be able to battle," he answered.

Dan's counterpart put down the chips, an evil glimmer in his eyes. "Then after we're finished here, we can return to their base and destroy their remnants. At last those honorable fools will be crushed!" he laughed triumphantly.

With that, the two anti-Digidestined exited to gather the others.

-------------

2½ hours had passed. The Digidestined saw a citadel about ten miles away.

WarGreymon stopped and frowned. "He's in there!"

"Then everybody digivolve and we'll wipe them off the map!!" ordered Dan, temporarily taking George's vacant position.

Dark Dan stepped out from behind a tree. SkullGrandmon already digivolved by his side.

"I really don't think so. SkullGrandmon, if you please…" he said.

"Black Blizzard!!!!!!"

Huge black snowflakes bombarded the Digidestined and their digimon, causing a blackout instead of the usual whiteout. The Digidestined ran for cover, except Dan, who stood his ground with Starpimon.

"This is my fight, the rest of you go on!!!" he demanded.

The other Digidestined ran away while Dan faced his evil counterpart.

Dan spat on the ground in front of his counterpart's feet. "You struck us when we weren't capable of fighting back! That is the last dishonorable thing you'll ever do!!!"

His counterpart arched an eyebrow. "Bold words, but how can you back them up with such a puny digimon? SkullGrandmon?"

"Black Blizzard!!!!"

"Starpimon warp digivolve to—SaberGrandmon!!!!"

-------------

The Digidestined encountered no other challenges as they approached the entrance. At the entrance, however, they met Jimmy's counterpart.

"I'm here to help you guys," he exclaimed.

Jimmy snorted. "Yeah right, and I'm the Queen of England," he laughed.

Hannah was not so sure. "Why should we trust you?" she demanded.

Dark Jimmy shrugged. "My team is going to lose anyway, so I figure why be on the losing side? I even brought the key to the front door," said he.

Much to the surprise of the Digidestined, Jimmy's counterpart produced a key that unlocked the front door. They ceased to be surprised when they saw what was waiting for them behind the door…BlackElectromon

"I knew we couldn't trust him!!! He's a backstabber to the end!! I'll take this battle, the rest of you go on!!" Jimmy sighed.

His counterpart laughed. "And how are you going to stop me?"

Jimmy stared his counterpart straight in his eyes. "Like this!! Ferarimon warp digivolve!!!"

"Ferarimon warp digivolve to—MetalElectromon!!!"

-------------

The two remaining Digidestined raced around the castle looking for the throne room. Eventually, they came to a big stone door. Together with the help of their digimon and WarGreymon, they pushed it open. Inside, reclining on the throne, was Rachel's counterpart.

"Are you going to give yourselves up, or are you going to make me destroy you. Personally, I'd much rather you take the first option…" she sighed lazily.

"Yeah! 'Cuz you know we'd beat the living daylights out of you!!!" declared Rachel angrily.

Her counterpart sighed again and stood up. "Please, lazy I may be, but weak I am not…sigh, it looks like you're making me go through with this aren't you…ah well DarkDilmon, you might as well warp digivolve…"

"You too Dilmon. This battle is mine!!!!"

"DarkDilmon warp digivolve to—DeviCybressmon!!!!"

"Dilmon warp digivolve to—MetalCybressmon!!!!"

-------------

Hannah, Lizardmon, and WarGreymon ran through a door at the other end of the throne room. It led to a flight of stair. After descending the stairs, they found themselves in a giant underground laboratory. Hannah's counterpart and BlackPterodactylmon are there waiting.

"So nice of you to drop by, but this is the last place you'll ever see!! BlackPterodactylmon, vaporize them!!" said she.

"Dark Winds!!!!!!"

Hannah braced herself. "This is my fight, you go on WarGreymon. I know you can defeat BlackWarGreymon!!!"

"Lizardmon warp digivolve to—GigaPterodactylmon!!!!"

-------------

WarGreymon descended yet another flight of stairs and found himself in another giant room. This one was empty except for two giant doors with ancient inscriptions on them and BlackWarGreymon who was standing in the center of the room looking right at his counterpart.

"Well, are you ready to die?" he said mockingly, not showing his fear.

The orange warrior stood at his full height. "I shall not be the one to perish! It is you who will be defeated!!"

The dark warrior chuckled. "Perhaps…since the fate of our two universes depends on the outcome of this battle I thought it very appropriate for us to battle in my portal room."

WarGreymon's eyes widened. "Your portal room?"

"Yes, this is how I move freely between the two universes, but that is of little concern to you…after all, your main concern right now should be me! Terra Destroyer!!!!!!" the dark warrior said beginning the final showdown.

"Terra Force!!!!!!"

-------------

Back in the positive dimension, Humongousmon has led his troops to victory after victory. Most of the Continent of Driver is now under his control, but it is still not good enough.

"They will all perish and I will own the entire Digital World, and when I am finished conquering this world, I shall conquer the world of the humans. I will teach them to interfere in the affairs of Digimon!!!! I AM THE GREAT HUMUNGOUSMON!!! LET BOTH WORLDS QUAKE IN FEAR OF MY WRATH!!!!!!" Humongousmon declared.

Narrator: Will the Digidestined be able to defeat their evil counterparts and BlackWarGreymon once and for all, and will they return in time to stop Humongousmon's evil plans for world domination? Find out next time on Digimon: Digital Monsters!!!

21: Yeah, not much actually happens in this episode, but I seem to be enjoying 2 parters as of late.

Sponsor: Yeah..about that

21: What?

Sponsor: I don't know how good it will be for your ratings if you continue using 2 parters...

21: Oh, don't worry about that. I think for the rest of this sequence there will be no more 2 parters.

Sponsor: Promise?

21: yep, that said, there may be a few three parters...

Sponsor: Such as what?!

21: Well, the Humongousmon story arch will have 2 three parters in it, the first will be the Great Digital War (which will be three long chapters), and the second will be George's battle with Humongousmon...oops I think I revealed too much.

Sponsor: nonsense. That's a nice teaser.

21: Whatever, I'll see if I can upload part 2 before I leave. See you next time!
