Ch. 32 Evil Approaches! Fun Time Ends Now!
Ch. 31 Review(Rytlock P.O.V)
After that first battle with Zeq vs. Kouji things didn't seem like they were going to be too bright. Death threats, and other problems have arisen at this tournament too and I don't like it one bit. Even Duke was mad enough to kill and with there being no rules after armor breaks it makes it pretty scary to say the least and with a diminishing losers bracket because of it. I hope it stops soon but it doesn't look like it will.
Ch. 32 Jamie P.O.V
With the quarterfinals coming up after this losers fight things are going to get interesting now that we will have to fight ourselves most of the time instead of fighting random Black Army goons. Myself, Tybalt, Duke, Reyn, Mark, Zeq, Cade, Shoutmon, Gumdramon, Rytlock, Coronamon, V-mon, and Alyssa all made it to the top 16 with John Alec, Marcus, Drake, Markel and Jayden in the losers bracket. They moved it down in the top 16 to two matches at a time and with only 16 people left in winners and twelve of them are us its going to be epic. They already announced the first match-up in the top 16 was actually pitting Cade against a random meaning it shouldn't be too hard for Cade but they placed Mark against Reyn which will most likely be the one to watch. After watching Jayden win the last match of the day we all settled down and ate. I sat with my younger brother today and we were by ourselves until Tommy came over as well. He looked worried about something and I wanted to know and Mark was no where to be found.
"Cade, is something wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing no at all, I mean I what meant to say-," Cade started to say nervously making mistakes in his speech.
"Cade your bad at lying so just tell us alright," I said and then Cade started to blush.
"Come on Cade," said Tommy, "you can trust us right?"
"It' just that…" started Cade and then he tensed up, "I'm nervous about this tournament. I have a feeling someone is going to get hurt."
"You'll win your match don't worry Cade," I said and then he sighed.
"That wasn't what I meant. It's Zeq, I'm worried if it comes down to it that we'll have to fight him without the armor and I don't want to hurt him," said Cade.
"If he goes out of control then we'll have no choice, Cade. I wish I could sugar coat it but I'm not as good as Mark is," I said.
"That's why I'm nervous. We can't do anything about it and I don't want to lose a friend," said Cade. Cade still looked strong but it was starting to fade fast, "Who knows what he's been doing with those first two private matches. He could have been under the influence of the sword and absorbed them. I want to know how many souls he has now I'm sure it's changed." That is true, the number of souls that Zeq has could have easily changed in the past two days which would mean Zeq would be an even more formidable foe who I don't want to fight either but I don't see a choice given to us other than surrendering to him.
"I especially don't want Tybalt or Duke to verse him. The sword would show no mercy and I wouldn't have the heart to fight Zeq without the armor on. He's still a good guy and I don't want to risk killing him," Cade started tearing up a little bit, "I just don't want to hurt my friends and I don't want them to hurt but I guess it's too much to ask. I'm afraid Jamie, afraid of what's going to happen next." Cade was starting to cry and then I hugged him and he looked surprised. I guess it is true that he has never received a hug from me unless it was a fun surprise attack other than the time I was worried he would kill himself. He's always the one that comforts me, not the other way around.
"Have faith in Zeq, Cade," I said, "sure he may be lost now but I'll fight him and free him from that prison so just have faith that my fight with him is soon. If you have to fight him you can always forfeit if you don't want to hurt him or you can run if you lose."
"I guess you're right but me running away won't solve anything," I said.
"It won't, it's not supposed to," said Tommy.
"Yeah Tommy's right, it shows you have faith in our team that we can do it alright. No worries," I said, "now perk up it's near ten o'clock and you're the first one to go."
"Why am I so nice that I can't even help my friends get through a rough patch without trembling and worrying I might hurt them. No one else has this problem but me. I spared Craniamon after I beat him because I could never finish anyone unless they were pure evil but Zeq isn't so why?" asked Cade to himself and he punched the wall next to him still crying. He thinks he's weak because he can't help his friends when it matters the most.
"I like how nice you are Cade," said John Alec as he joined the conversation noticing Cade crying, "I think it's amazing how nicely you treat people who hurt you. It's something I could never do which is why I have a friend like you. Don't let my aggression inspire you Cade because aggression only leads to greater problems alright. If you can't do it then don't. Try not to force yourself into doing anything." Cade looked up at John Alec and smiled at the rest of us.
"I know your right but… I'm still nervous," said Cade as he stopped crying as much as before.
"Well keep being nervous, at least we know your human. Ironic your in the body of a digimon but you still feel all the human emotion," I said to him, "I'm nervous too, hell everyone is nervous so just look forward and we'll be nervous together alright."
"You're right, I guess I should stop crying now," said Cade. Then John Alec grabbed hug around the shoulders and started to nuggie him for a little bit and let go.
"That's the spirit!" said John Alec smiling and Cade smiled back.
"See you guys tomorrow and don't stay up too long or you won't be able to wake up early for top 16 alright," I said.
"You can count on it Jamie," said Cade with John Alec and then we both parted ways and Tommy went over to wherever his room was. I walked into my room and I saw the TV was on but Tybalt and Duke were asleep right next to each other on the bed hugging which was kind of cute. At least they went to bed on time and I guess it's time for me as well.
***Zeq P.O.V***
I was in my room by myself and then I started hearing that damned voice again.
"Come on it's time Zeq, you know you want to let me take control. It'll be easier for everyone since I can force you too whenever," said the voice but I held my ground.
"I think I'm good thanks, you just stay in there nice and tidy," I said and I could tell the voice was mad.
"You've held this for long enough Zeq. Now it's time for me to take the wheel," it said and then I felt my body morphing, "you humans don't learn that I will conquer all worlds. Now that the pathetic whelp you beat me last time doesn't have a digivice or partner it's game over." Then I remembered the advice that Mark told me.
"Let it happen," rang the advice multiple times in my head so I conceded.
"Fine you win," I said and it sounded like the voice was confused.
"Are you sure? I was kind of expected some action," said the voice slightly upset.
"Nah you win, I can't fight it anymore but I have friends that can so I'll sit back and enjoy watching you get pummeled. You now have full control but don't expect to have it for too long," I said to the voice and then the voice was back to it's evil nature.
"Suit yourself," it said and by that time I could see what was going on in the outside. Those good old horns were a little larger probably because I'm older than the last time. The big floppy ears and the white fur.
"Why the hell are you some goat thing anyway?" I asked.
"Ask Lord Bagramon that but you banished him so you can't," said the Sword of the Damned feeling his new body. I could feel all the movements he was talking but I couldn't control any of them.
"Don't bother going anywhere tonight. I haven't slept in three days and I think your somewhat tired," I said and then he fell on the bed.
"What did you do?" he asked.
"Sleep deprivation, one of the bad things about having a real body," I said laughing, "good luck."
"Don't worry Zeq, whoever you face in the tourney tomorrow won't be alive to move to the losers bracket and considering a lot of them are your friends they won't be having much fun."
"We'll see,"
"Evil Approaches, Zeq! The Fun Time Ends Now!" said the sword as he laughed for a long time but not before he went to sleep. Good thing I did that or who knows what he would've done to the others in their sleep. I hope Mark is right, I hope they can beat him.
***Jamie P.O.V The Next Day***
Things were getting crazy and Zeq still hasn't shown and Mark and Reyn were already in the fighting arena and same with Cade and that Barbramon most likely 2X. One of the Deadly Sin digimon are here meaning we got pretty far up in the chain. I hope didn't turn into that thing already for top 16 or who knows who he'll have to face.
"Looks like you, Cadence Gredder, should pay more attention to where your stuff is," said Barbramon as he showed off Cade's digivice surprising Cade as he looked to see how it got away from him.
"You want a fair fight don't you. You should give that back," said Cade.
"No I don't want a fair fight that's why I stole it," he said smiling.
"That's not the right thing to do," said Cade.
"Is he actually lecturing a Seven Deadly Sins digimon on what the right thing to do and what the wrong thing to do is?" asked Tai.
"Yeah, Cade really likes to do things like that," said John Alec, "he remember when he tried to spare Puppetmon even after he did all of those things to us in his mansion until Jamie just you know."
"That was the first time I saw Cade mad and even when he was mad he didn't sound mad at all just you know a little irritated," I said to Tai.
"I guess he is the resident white knight," said Matt.
"You can try to steal it back if you dare," said Barbramon.
"I can't do that, you went to all that trouble to take it from me," said Cade then Barbramon stepped back astonished.
"Do you ever get angry," said Barbramon.
"I do, but now isn't the time too and besides I don't need my digivi-," said Cade.
"Um about that because of the level 3 crest we can't do that," said Kumamon.
"That really doesn't make any sense. Shouldn't the crest give us an upgrade to that power not take it away," said Cade upset, "that's okay it might be hard but I'll beat him like this." Cade then took out the Blizzard Blaster and shot Barbramon for 10 out of his 5000HP.
"This will take a long time," said Cade nervously.
"You idiot!" said Barbramon throwing a fire ball at Cade but Cade dodged it and covered the whole field in ice. Barbramon slipped on the ice and Kumamon shot him again this time for 15HP instead of 10 which wasn't much of a gain but still an improvement.
"Frozen Tundra!" said Cade as he turned both of his hands into spiked gloves made of ice and punched Barbramon for 50HP.
"How are you so strong even when you only have the strength of a champion level digimon?" wondered Barbramon.
"The crest of truth is on my side that's why," said Cade as it started to shine and then disappeared. Barbamon looked up infuriated and then slipped back on the ice.
"Dark Inferno!" said Barbamon as fire started to appear below Cade and he dodged by skiing on the ice but the ice was slowly melting due to the fire and Cade started to slow down. Until all the ice was melted but Cade was already in the air shooting his blizzard blaster to shoot down Barbamon this time for 100HP which had Barbamon at a little over 4800HP. Cade froze over the entire battlefield again but this time the ice looked thicker and Cade looked even stronger than before and faster.
"I won't be able to help Zeq if I can't beat you," said Cade determined as he kept sliding around dodging every fire attack that Barbamon could throw.
"Your insolence annoys me and now it's time for you to die! Death Lure!" said Barbamon as he rose his staff and Cade froze in place and started holding his head. He was taking 10HP a second and he was confused at that. It only lasted a few seconds though which made Barbramon even more angrier than before.
"How did you…Death Lure!" said Barbramon and this time the attack had no effect.
"I don't have any evil thoughts so your attack won't do that much to me. It may try to make me afraid but I know that it's all a dream," said Cade as he pointed at his head.
"It could also mean your stupid," said Barbamon.
"Then your losing to a stupid kid then," said Cade as he stuck his tongue out.
"Dark Inferno!" said Barbamon as he fired but Cade's crest started to light up to the point where it blinded Barbamon and then Cade used his ice gauntlets to punch Barbamon and this time it did 2000HP and Barbamon staggered backwards and fell to his knees.
"How…just how when I have your-," started Barbamon.
"Digivice," finished Cade as he held up his digivice in front of Barbamon.
"When did you get that and why didn't you digivolve yet," he said.
"I just got it after that attack but I won't need it after this," said Cade. Cade's gauntlets were now gone and instead his whole arm turned into a large icicle spike and then Cade ran up to skated up to Barbamon on the ice and Barbamon could not move fast enough because of the ice.
"Finish Move: Icicle Crash!" said Cade as he dove into Barbamon straight through and he would have a giant hole through his chest and the attack did 3000 damage which it still surprises me on why Cade's damage output got up so high. Barbamon's armor cracked and then he fell to the ground.
"I guess you can kill me now," he said in defeat.
"Nah, I'm not in the mood. Bye!" said Cade as he left twirling his digivice and he left the arena and then I turned my attention to Reyn and Mark. Mark looked fine standing at 1500HP but Reyn was down to 500HP. Mark though was bleeding for 75HP every 10ish seconds.
"Come on Reyn, you got to be tougher than that," said Mark and then Reyn rushed towards Mark which Mark took the hit and then knocked Reyn down. Mark stood above Reyn but Reyn kicked him upwards and then shot Mark while he was on the ground and although the shots only did 2HP the bleed went up to 100HP and now Mark was at 1398HP.
"I know Zeq is in danger and he needs help and I have to be the one that does it. Or at least if I lose then I know that I tried," said Reyn.
"I can't let that happen. It's way to dangerous for a kid," said Mark.
"It's not like if I die then I die in the human world. Justin will make it snappy no doubt," said Justin.
"The Sword of the Damned is different. It doesn't erase the data that let's you stay human in the digital world it erases the part of you that stays digital in the real world. If you were to go back after you lost to the Sword of the Damned then you would disappear in the human world without a trace," said Mark.
"It's like…the sword rips apart your soul. After you lose your like a lifeless husk in the digital world," said Reyn surprised.
"Yeah, with no data to transcribe back into DNA when you reach the digital world. You will die with no trace." said Mark, "The sword can switch between killing your Human Data and your transcribe Data meaning we can sever both lines therefore forcing you back to the human world where you'll have nothing to transcribe and then you will die."
"It's a risk I'll have to take then. To save a friend," said Reyn and Mark looked angry.
"No I won't let that happen! If you can't beat me then how will you beat Reyn," said Mark, "I don't want to see any of my friends die anymore. I don't want good people to disappear because I couldn't even protect them. Jeremy, his father, those other two and now Mr. Feyit was in a coma. I couldn't even lift I finger but now I can. I have a plan alright and I may die but… I just don't want to involve anyone. If I lost here or to anyone in this top 16 just for them to get placed with Zeq I don't know what I would do."
"I don't think I'm going to let you kill yourself to save a couple people. Not on my watch," said Reyn as he ran at Mark but Mark reached ahead and stabbed Reyn for his remaining 500HP.
"I won't let you kids throw your life away when you have so much to live for. Not after the selfishness I did 14 years ago. I don't want to watch as multiple people die and I can't risk getting lucky or anyone else for that matter," said Mark and then battle was over and he left. J.T. looked concerned and went over to me.
"Do you know what happened 14 years ago?" asked J.T.
"He never mentioned it to me," I said.
"Well in the first grade, before I was Mark's friend, there was a school shooting at his school and his classroom was the unfortunate classroom closer to the door," said J.T.
"What! Why?" I asked quickly.
"The man was drunk," said J.T., "anyway before they came in Mark was forced to hide as he was literally thrown into a closet with some of his classmates by a teacher only to watch her die in front of him not being able to do anything. The police would be there in two minutes but someone or something had a bright idea to push him out of the closet in the killer's eyesight. It took a minute but he finally noticed and tried to kill Mark. Mark was shot in the arm but then he fired another shot that didn't hit him."
"Who'd it hit?" asked Markel next to me.
"It hit his only two friends. His friends, first his friend Roni stood in front of Mark and was killed instantly and then what really pushed him was Lucy. Lucy tried to grab the gun and called for Mark's help. Mark couldn't move and he sat there paralyzed until the drunk man got a hold of her and shot her three times. Right when Mark was about to get shot the police came and caught the man," said J.T.
"All those times the kids at school called him a selfish bastard even when he was the nicest guy I knew was because-," said Jamie.
"Yeah, it was because Mark was to afraid to move a muscle and lost his two best friends. He said he wished he was with them but was still to afraid to kill himself so he just ambled the rest of his life carrying that burden."
"I remember when he told me that," said V-mon, "he can still never forgive himself. He always charges in to get stabbed because he really does love his friends but when he gets mortally injured he said he always thought of Roni and Lucy dying in front of him."
"It seemed like he stopped worrying when I came into the picture," said J.T., "in the third grade kids still picked on him but I backed him up and soon people just left us alone and that was the first time I saw Mark smile. I might have moved in to Miami in the 3rd grade but I never talked to him for a couple months. Mark will make sure you, especially, don't get hurt if you have to face him so please just try to snap him out of his guilt trip. It's been 14 years and he needs closure," said J.T.
"I'll make sure of it J.T.," I said smiling, "nothing is going to bring my brother down anymore."
"That's the spirit," said Markel smiling, "and it looks like your up next against V-mon and Tybalt is against Zeq. What a shitty pairing."
"Good luck V-mon, try not to get creamed," I said.
"Me creamed, you must mishtake me for a Black Army flunky," said V-mon fired up.
"V-mon, kick some ass," said Mark holding his thumb.
"You bet I will," said V-mon.
"You know he's up against me right. You vote for him but not your own sister," I said jokingly upset.
"Yes I am and it will be amazing," said Mark playfully holding my shoulder, "but if you want it I guess I could say 'Break a leg!'"
"Thanks, I guess," I said.
"I need to talk to Tybalt alright, I'll be back alright," said Mark and then he left in the other direction. That's right, I might have to face V-mon which is a tough match all on it's own but god knows what Tybalt has to go through.
***Tybalt P.O.V***
Of all people why did I have to be the first one to fight Zeq in a fight. Couldn't Jamie, Mark, or someone capable of beating him fight him first. I'm just so worried I can't think without sweating, what am I going to do what am I gonna do. I was sitting with Duke, Rytlock, and Drake at a table in the food court but I couldn't eat at all and the others saw that I looked worried. I didn't want them to see me worry so I covered my eyes but that did the exact opposite and now I was shaking so it was even worse.
"Hey Tybalt!" yelled someone behind me and I knew that voice from anywhere. It was Mark and I was going to say hi back but I was too nervous to say anything. Instead I just kept shaking and I knew it was wrong to ignore him but I still couldn't move.
"Tybalt, is this because you have to fight Zeq now?" asked Duke and then I nodded my head "yes" and then Mark spoke.
"Someone was going to have to fight him at one point," said Mark, "just remember you can always surrender if you don't want to fight him. You aren't confined to that area. You may lose street cred but if that armor comes off and Zeq has given in to the sword then he won't hesitate to kill you if you lose so be on guard." He'd kill me but why, I thought we were friends. Won't Zeq try to stop the sword from doing so. I don't even know Zeq that well, in fact, I don't know a lot of the people here that well other than Duke and Reyn. Rytlock and Drake may be my best friends but I still haven't known them for that long but Duke is me so that breaks the rule and Reyn is my brother.
"I don't know Zeq that well, what do I do to snap him out of it?" I asked.
"This situation is completely different then the last time," said Mary after she was done talking with Jayden, "last time, Zeq's soul was merged with the sword so we have to pull him out. Now we have a complete replacement kind of like Cade and Kumamon so we can't just snap him back the easy way. He have to beat him in a fight or tire him out." Now I have to fight him, but I don't want to.
"Good luck, Tybalt," encouraged, "just remember you don't fight have to if you don't want to. I mean-."
"I know, Rytlock," I said to him smiling and then he started to blush embarrassedly until I left. I got over to the arena entrance, Jamie and NEO UlforceVeedramon were already there.
"Good luck Jamie!" said UlforceVeedramon hapily.
"Same with you, but where is Zeq?" asked Jamie and I wanted to know where he was too until the lights flashed off and back on quickly and Zeq stood in front of us instantly except it wasn't Zeq at all.
"I can't wait to slice you in two. When you lose I'll make sure you won't feel the humility of defeat for that long," said a voice that clearly did not belong to Zeq.
"Shut the fuck up your voice is so raspy it makes my throat cry hearing it," said Jamie madly, "hopefully I won't have to face you but if I do then you'll be in some deep shit."
"Hmpf, I'd like to see you try. Good luck, shorty. You're going to need it," said the thing controlling Zeq and then he walked outside and left the three of us.
"Try your best Tybalt," said V-mon, "I'm cheering for yah." Then he patted me on the back and looked up to me and that kind of gave me courage but my legs were still shaking.
"Relax, he can't kill you with that armor on so win it," said Jamie smiling and then the two of them went outside and I soon followed. Outside there was no cheering, in fact, everyone looked just as scared as I was and they aren't even in the fight. I walked into my arena and Jamie with V-mon did the same except they didn't start fighting and they looked over into my arena.
"I'll make this quick enough so you don't have to here yourself cry!selfthis quick enough ty ydi Now die!" said the evil sword.
"Wait! I-," I started to try and surrender but Zeq's body was already running towards me extremely quickly and then when he sliced me I felt the armor break off my body and I looked at the score board and it read ten "9's" across the screen and the life bar turned instantly black. I could still stand but my body wouldn't move. I was frozen stiff and my eyes were wide open expecting the worse.
"I would say it was fun knowing you but it wasn't! Become food for me you child!" and then the sword became his hand and he stabbed me in the chest. I started bleeding but I'm in the digital world, it shouldn't be happening this badly.
"Tybalt!" I heard Reyn scream. I can't go down, I just can't. I have to save Zeq so we can be friends. I can't just die here.
"I bet your wondering why you feel like your dying on the inside. If I kill you here you won't reform in the human world. Both your lines, DNA and digital, will be cut by this sword and it will be as if you never existed!" said the voice laughing and then he took the sword out but I was still standing and he looked surprised.
"How are you alive!" he asked starring at me.
"I know Zeq is in there. I want to save him and I can't do that if I'm dead. They're counting on me to live and I can't let you take Zeq's body," I said.
***Mark P.O.V***
"I've never felt this strongly about anything before. Now that I have family and friends I can't let down, it wouldn't be generous of me to just leave them without saying goodbye. Now I'm going to free Zeq so we can be friends!" said Tybalt and then his crest started to glow until it turned golden and the whole battlefield flashed white. When it reappeared Tybalt's hat was off and his body had a white aura around his body. The thing was though that he only had a max HP of 1 which made me extremely worried especially when Zeq almost did ten billion damage with one swipe. Tybalt raised his right arm and small white balls were all over the stage. When he swiped his hand the right the fifteen white balls on the floor began to shoot out white beams in eight direction and the Sword had to try and dodge them but they were moving faster until Tybalt stopped them and the balls formed together into a giant one that shot a laser which was dodged and the ball disappeared. This time the sword attacked and it looked like he had a clean hit but Tybalt only took .01HP from the attack.
"How do my attacks go from ten billion to not even 1HP! It makes no sense!" said the Sword.
"I said I would try my hardest and I'm going to," said Tybalt angrily as he appeared behind the Sword and then shot him with bullets in rhythm but it was fast enough for him not to be able to escape the combo from the hitstun. A clone of Tybalt came with a sword made from light and attacked from the back and the Sword could do nothing until the combo would stop doing damage. At the end another Tybalt clone was charging a huge ball of light and threw it at Sword taking him down a quarter HP leaving him at 7500HP.
"I let you have your fun but now it's my turn," said Sword as he rushed towards Tybalt and slashed but the image of Tybalt just faded away. The real Tybalt was behind Sword and he punched him hard enough to knock him over but it only did 50HP which was a lot less than I thought it would. Sword got up and threw dozens of swords from his arm and one of them captured Tybalt causing bleed damage at .001HP a second and hitting him for another .01HP. Tybalt's willpower to be friends with Zeq is decreasing Sword's damage output which is fairly impressive. I thought only I had that much determination but in the end I knew Tybalt would fight him. Tybalt turned around and tried to punch Sword but he changed his body so that he would end up punching a blade causing Tybalt to stop just before he hit it but he then slashed the sword and this time it did .05HP so Tybalt's health was at .94HP. Tybalt isn't wearing any armor meaning he'll die if this gets too serious but who would be able to stop this fight now. Tybalt stood up and raised his hands again but this time the balls were in the air and they shot in 16 different directions making them harder to dodge but he was still able to until Tybalt punched Sword from behind even though I swear Tybalt is over there still, which his afterimage was. Tybalt's punch knocked him right into an orb dealing 250HP. Tybalt pressed his hands downward and everything in the air fell and merged together again and that ball made a huge giant laser but this time Tybalt held Sword in a looked position so he couldn't move. The laser did a total of 400HP leaving Sword at 6850HP but since he held that for 3 minutes he took .ooktes The laser did a totlaast18HP and it could be seen that Tybalt was tired. Tybalt again shot a beam at Sword but this time from himself instead and that did 100HP but then Tybalt was behind Sword except he saw it coming and from behind stabbed Tybalt in the stomach and it increased the bleeding to .002HP and he took .1HP from the attack leaving him at .658HP and steadily declining. If Tybalt takes no damage he still only has a little over 5 minutes until he goes unconscious from blood loss. The light balls appeared again this time the lights moving faster then ever but Sword was able to dodge them all but the light stopped moving completely until they all went in reverse which was not anticipated and Sword paid the price with 500HP because of it. Tybalt brushed his hand to the left and everything minus himself was crushed over to the left side of the field. Sword was right on top of the light balls as they shot right at him in point blank range dealing 1000HP and leaving him on the floor.
"You better find another way to beat me kid because if you kill me then Zeq will have this body forever since nobody will be able to reverse it," he said smiling. This had to have been a bluff but with Tybalt being young and innocent he froze up and didn't move.
"I…I don't want to do that to Zeq. What would he think of me then?" asked Tybalt to himself as he looked defeated.
"Tybalt, that doesn't matter!" said Reyn from above but it doesn't matter because the field blocks out sound.
"You should just let me kill you and maybe your friends and can a way to save Zeq the right way," said Sword as he rose his blade and sliced Tybalt for .25HP causing the bleed to increase even ore. Tybalt lost his determination to save Zeq and it might be over now. With the same slash doing another .3HP and then bleed damage Tybalt's aura faded and he fell on the floor not able to move.
"You really are stupid are you. He might be in this form forever but it's worth it try and save him right?" he said in a mocking and sarcastic tone, "If you just 'believed in yourself' then maybe he could have changed back." He said this last bat smiling and then ten swords appeared above Tybalt's head and Tybalt still couldn't move. I started to get out of me seat and rush towards the stadium jumping down the stairs.
"Die!" he yelled as the swords rushed towards him and then a gust of wind blew the swords away and with a large gust Alyssa appeared out of thin air.
"Hey you miss me kid?" asked Alyssa.
"Alyssa, is that you?" Tybalt asked not still not able to move or open his eyes to see it.
"Yeah it's me. Let's get out of here," said Alyssa.
"I'm not done I'm in the middle of killing someone," said Sword.
"Watch me," said Alyssa defiantly as he took Tybalt and in a gust of wind they were both on the bleachers.
"You'll be sorry you crossed with me Alyssa Valentine. With Zeq and all his digimon 'friends' in my posession. I'm invincible!" he said laughing.
"Wait he absorbed Agumon?" asked Jamie upsetly.
"He did, I'm going to kick him to next week," said V-mon on top of Jamie's shoulder so I guess Jamie won that fight but looking at Jamie's 150HP left it seemed like a close fight.
"You can't but I will, soon," said Jamie and she walked back to the arena entrance. Back at the bleachers I went to talk to Alyssa and she seemed solemn like she was grieving something or someone.
"I kept him safe for you," I heard her whisper and I went to talk to her.
"Is something wrong? By the way it seems out of the blue but do you know where iTybalt is?" I asked her. The person supposedly running the tournament hasn't been seen since the second round.
"He's dead," Alyssa said quickly.
"How!?" asked everyone around us which was just J.T, Cade, Tai, Markel, and Jayden. The rest were with Tybalt in his room after Alyssa took him there.
"You see your uncle was running out after he saw Mr. Michaels being pulled away by the police," started Alyssa, "Your Uncle was running and that's when he ran into iTybalt and it seemed like he was his next victim. iTybalt tried to get your uncle but luckily your uncle had a blue card on him and put it in an explosive causing it to explode and that was the end of iTybalt."
"That's awesome!" said Cade.
"Well, the person controlling iTybalt was in close proximity and aimed his gun at your uncle but luckily, and I do mean all luck was on his side, your mother happened to be driving home from the school early and noticed it running over the person attacking your uncle. Your uncle told your mom what happened and told your mom to leave and tell the others and that he would be over there soon. Afterwards, your uncle killed the A.T.A flunky with his own gun but after walking over to the next block the police saw the whole act but luckily your mother was gone after that," Alyssa started crying, "your uncle tried to run away. The police that saw the scene were with the A.T.A of course. They labeled your uncle as hostile and they shot him. Your mother still hung around but got away fast enough to see everything and report back. They shot your uncle 4 times before he finally stopped. Now, he's dead."
"Did you just say Uncle Thomas…died?" asked Cade and then he started crying, "it's not true I don't believe it."
"They're so low…so low as to kill people in the real world. It's sickening!" said Markel angrily.
"I'm sorry," said Tai and he was patting Cade on the head, "but he helped out a lot."
"What's up you guys!?" asked Jamie happily with John Alec and then Jamie did a full 180, "why is everyone crying? Everyone is alive, Tybalt is still okay." Cade hugged John Alec and John Alec looked worried.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"They killed our uncle, Jamie. They killed Uncle Thomas," said Cade. Jamie was extremely angry enough so that there was a noticeable temperature difference.
"Who?" asked Jamie calmly but I could tell she would explode
"The A.T.A" I answered and immediately Jamie punched one of the benches and some it started to melt but the whole thing was broken apart.
"Those bastards are going to burn in hell! When I find them no one survives!" exclaimed Jamie. I stood up and started to walk away.
"Where are you going Marcush?" asked V-mon worriedly.
"I need some time alone," I said and then he followed.
"I'm coming with you alright. You need guidance and I'll give it to you," said V-mon. I smiled at him.
"Thanks V-mon," I said and then we both left Cade who was still crying intensely but more importantly how does dad feel.
***D.S.S Headquarters***
"Everyone, our primary goal is to find the A.T.A headquarters and stop this killing now!" said Mr. Mains.
"Don't worry Thomas, I'll make sure your sacrifice was not in vain," said Mr. Gredder.
