Chapter Thirty Five: Rescue Ophanimon
We walked the way to the Rose Morning Star. Under the Rose Morning Star is a large pink rock like skinny temple surrounded with flying rocks. We heard Ophanimon's voice and Takuya pulled out his D-tector. "You are finally here my children. With the powers of the ten legendary warriors you will defeat Cherubimon." Ophanimon said.
"What Cherubimon's here?" I asked.
"Yes, he has be waiting for your arrival" Ophanimon answered.
We saw streams of data going to the top of the building where Ophanimon is.
"Where the data coming from?" Zoe asked.
Takuya D-tector started to give off static sounds then cut off. "The overflow of the data cut me off" Takuya stated.
"Maybe Koichi knows" Tommy said quietly.
"Yea he worked for Cherubimon he should know" J.P agreed. "Hey Koichi, you were Duskmon do you know anything about this or Cherubimon?" J.P asked quite rudely.
Zoe and I elbowed him and he cringed. .
"That was rude." I said.
"Couldn't you think of a better way to ask?" Zoe asked angrily.
"I don't know anything about what Cherubimon was planning, I'm sorry I couldn't be more useful" Koichi said sadly, my anger dispersed at how sad he seems.
"Hey, let's get going we got to rescue Ophanimon." Takuya said changing the mood.
"How do you suppose we get up there?" Tommy asked.
"Yea it's not like we can jump up there" I said.
"There has got to be another way." Zoe said.
"I bet it's a trap" J.P said.
"A trap? I can't fly" Neemon said.
"Do I have to remind you that they, the legendary warriors went through tougher situations, am I right, Takuya?" Bokomon asked with sparkling eyes.
"Well actually Neemon has a point" said Takuya. Bokomon's face when down. "Got ya." Takuya said and we all spirit evolved.I carried Kumamon while Beetlemon carried Neemon and Bokomon who complained about how slow he is and Kazemon carried Patamon.
We arrived at a gate. "Does this remind anyone of the dark gate?" Beetlemon questioned.
"What's on the other side?" Kazemon asked.
"There nothing on the other side." I stated and ran around.
"So we have to go through here." Agunimon stated. Two maces flung towards us, Lobomon and Agunimon dodge it. "How perspective." Agunimon stated. The mace flung back towards two cloaks. The cloaks flung over and two digimons appeared. Bokomon identify them as Phantomon.
Phantomon sliced down at Agunimon, Agunimon leaned back and dodged the attack, the other Phantomon slash at Beetlemon who fell back. Lobomon went in front and took out his sword and charged at Phantomon, Phantomon dodge the attack with no difficulty. Phantomon took the chance and was going to slashed down when Loewemon used Shadow Meteor and aiming at Phantomon, Phantomon dodged the attack. "Nice shot" Lobomon praised.
"Hurricane winds" Kazemon said and attacked another Phantomon. Phantomon dodged the attack charged at Kazemon. Kumamon attack Phantomon and Phantomon dodge. Kazemon thanked Kumamon.
"Crescent Harken" I said and attacked a Phantomon but it slide away. Beetlemon used a fist of thunder and attack and also missed so did Agunimon. The two Phantomons disappeared. "Where did they go?" I questioned.
"The crystals they wear can take you to another dimension where you will be trap forever" Bokomon explained.
"That doesn't sound too good." Kazemon said. We started to wander apart looking for the two Phantomons.
"Don't wonder too far" Patamon warned. Beetlemon was captured. Kazemon followed.
"Kazemon" I shouted and was cut off by being capture myself.
"It's no use, they're capturing us when were not looking." Loewemon said. Agunimon and Kumamon gasped as they were captured, Loewemon looked away and Lobomon was snatch.
"You can't save them now" said a Phantomon.
"Why don't you just give yourself up and save us the trouble and join your friends?" asked the other Phantomon.
Loewemon closed his eyes and concentrated on his surrounds, Loewemon dodged the two Phantomon and they crashed together. Loewemon summoned a lance and attacked the eye necklace. We were all freed and the Phantomon fractal code showed. He scanned it and the gate open. We ran through the gate and up a spiral staircase
At the end of the staircase was flying screens and more staircases some upside down.
"What is this place?" I asked.
"I don't know, this world just get more and more weird." Beetlemon stated. Shadows and hands stretch out towards us.
"How do you stop these things?" Kazemon asked.
"I don't know" I said backing up. A bell ran and the hands stop.
"Well, that stopped them." Agunimon stated. The bell ran again. The hands disappeared and so did the shadow.
"This is the hall of Shadows. Those that came here before and died to the wrath of Cherubimon became these Shadows" explained a mysterious digimon.
"And who are you?" Agunimon asked with a demanding tone.
"Don't worry, I'm on your side, I am Oryxmon." Oryxmon identify himself.
"Do you have any proof?" Agunimon asked. There was silence. Patamon flew over to Oryxmon Agunimon apologized and Oryxmon lead us to lady Ophanimon.
Kazemon, Beetlemon and I went to attacked the cage wielding Ophanimon but our attacks did nothing. Ophanimon told us the story of why we were brought to the digital world. It was the same as the on Seraphimon told us. Ophanimon continued and said that Cherubimon's thoughts of philosophy was different from ours and when he saw Seraphimon and herself talking by themselves he mistook the idea. Cherubimon lead a group of beast type digimons and convinced them that Seraphimon and she were the cause of all their problems.
Cherubimon became a monster. Seraphimon was hit by Cherubimon and she gave herself up to save Seraphimon and every since she been waiting for Seraphimon to be rescued. Kazemon wondered if it was because Cherubimon like Ophanimon, Beetlemon disagreed. Ophanimon continued to explain what had happen; she had called out to us because Cherubimon didn't have power over here and then she praised us for our commitment.
Cherubimon appeared and explained how Ophanimon had help him, how he can use the powers of the 11 legendary warriors. Our crest started to glow, we ask Bokomon what's going on with a little panic in it.
