Chapter Thirty Six: Sakura's Death, New D-tectors, New Evolutions

Cherubimon explained how everyone was his pawn in the whole game. Cherubimon grabbed Oryxmon and killed him. The shadows below were due to Cherubimon experimenting with the digimons to fuse with the spirit. Only Koichi worked out with it. Cherubimon grabbed Loewemon and Koji and Takuya fusion evolved. Aldamon fired at Cherubimon but his attack hit Loewemon, Cherubimon threw Loewemon on the ground and grabbed Aldamon. Beowulfmon fire at Cherubimon, but the attack went to Aldamon. Aldamon was thrown on the ground. Patamon flew up to Ophanimon's cage and I followed. Patamon said that the light was affecting their aim and power. Ophanimon said it was true. Aldamon and Beowulfmon took Cherubimon outside and told us to free Ophanimon.

Cherubimon punched both Aldamon and Beowulfmon causing them to fall.

"How are we supposed to free Ophanimon?" Kazemon asked.

"Maybe if we bend the lights and reflect the lights somewhere else we can destroy the cage." I suggested.

"Okay" Kumamon said and used his ice to try to direct the light. The lights started to bend.

"Ophanimon don't worry we'll get you out as soon as possible" I said placing my hand on hers.

She flinched and whispered to me "You must leave the digital world at once"

"I'm sorry I can't. Not until I'm finished here" I stated.

"You must or you'll die." Ophanimon stated taking my hand she then flinched again.

"Are you alright?" I asked. "Y-you're already dead." She stated.

"I'm what?" I question drifting back a bit.

"You're dead; you're just a body that is empty. You're the one whose spirit I called to the digital world a long time ago." She stated.

"So I'm dead? But how can that be I'm right here, and if you did take my spirit world to the digital world a long time ago then, then you killed me?" I asked.

"Yes, you are dead, I don't know how come you're here but I didn't kill you, your spirit was wondering around and I draw it here to live. If you find her and get back together you can still live." Ophanimon explained.

I stared straight at her seeing if she was lying but there was nothing but honesty. She let go of my hand. "So…I'm…dead?" I choked out. She nodded.

"Sakura are you alright?" Kazemon asked.

"No." I stated.

"What's wrong?" Beetlemon asked.

"I'm….dead" I choked again.

Cherubimon punched both Aldamon and Beowulfmon, again, they fell off. Cherubimon summoned some thunder and attacked Aldamon and Bewulfmon again and again. "Can't you see, inside or outside it doesn't matter, I'm still stronger." Cherubimon stated and continued to attack Aldamon and Bewulfmon.

Kumamon was shot back and the light was still there. Kazemon caught Kumamon. Beetlemon punched a mirror angered that Kumamon couldn't reflect the light. The mirror shattered and a light disappeared. "I got it we can destroy the mirrors so no light could reflect off it. We did so and destroyed some lines. Kazemon used a love tap and bounced off the mirror she then slide evolve to Zephyrmon and used hurricane gale to destroy the mirror.

Aldamon charged at Cherubimon but Cherubimon dodged and Aldamon was lodged into the ground. Taking the chance, Cherubimon summoned a lightning bolt and aim for Aldamon. Beowulfmon used his sword to save Aldamon but the thunder bolt electrocuted him. Aldamon got himself free in the time and blocked Cherubimon's attack. Cherubimon has thrown Aldamon onto Beowulfmon. Cherubimon then threw down the lightning on both of them. They both reverted back. Cherubimon then took both their D-tectors and use wind to push them down. Takuya fell over and Koji grabbed his arm pulling him on while Cherubimon went to get the rest of the D-tectors.

Cherubimon appeared and attack Beetlemon who was on his way to destroy the last light holding Ophanimon. Beetlemon fell and reverted back. Zephyrmon when to tend to J.P, but was told to get Ophanimon free and Koichi and Tommy volunteer to distract Cherubimon.

The two slide evolved to Korikakumon and JagerLoewermon and attack Cherubimon. They attack Cherubimon, but Cherubimon attacked back and the two reverted back and their D-tector was stolen. Cherubimon charged for Zephyrmon but she dodge and he hit the cage. He attack Zephyrmon and she hit the cage this time. "Now I'll have the power of all the ten legendary warriors." Cherubimon stated.

"Aren't you forgetting one? Slide evolution Rosemon X. Roses Rapier." I said and charge at him. I started fencing with his hand until he summoned a lightning and I started to fence with it, getting electrocuted a few times. I used my left whip ready to whip him with it. He threw the lightning bolt at me. I was pin up to the wall and was electrocuted. I reverted back and fell down, Zephyrmon caught me.

"Thanks" I stated.

Cherubimon attack both of us and Zephyrmon hit the cage again and I fell down. "I didn't forget I need you as well" Cherubimon said as he grabbed me. "Now it's time for me to get the last D-tector." Cherubimon said as he summoned a lightning bolt he threw it at Zephyrmon.

"Zoe" I screamed as the lightning went towards her. Ophanimon pushed open the cage and Zephyrmon out of the way and was hit herself. Zephyrmon reverted back to Zoe.

"Ophanimon" she cried.

"Why did both you and Seraphimon sacrifice yourselves for peace?" Cherubimon questioned.

"How can you think that digimon is your pawn, you're heartless" Ophanimon shouted.

"I am strong and I will conquer." Cherubimon said as his dark power overflowed. I started to shudder at the dark, hatred power. He shattered the rest of the mirror with his dark power.

"Let me go" I screamed.

"Quiet you." He said tightening his grip on me. I screamed.

"SAKURA!" Zoe, Koichi, J.P, and Tommy shouted.

Ophanimon started to tell Cherubimon how she felt pity for him being turned evil. Cherubimon couldn't believe that he was once good. Ophanimon took out a shield and javelin and fire something in Cherubimon's mouth. Cherubimon covered his head with his hands dropping me in the process. I screamed. Patamon flew up and try to catch me but is now fall with me. But Patamon didn't give up and continue to beat his wings slowing the fall down.

"Thank you" I thanked.

Ophanimon convinced Cherubimon that she could make him back to what he was. Cherubimon started to look like his own self until he reverted back.

"What happen? The D-tectors, you stole them from me." Cherubimon said. Ophanimon threw the D-tectors back at us and teleport us to where Koji and Takuya are.

"What happened in there?" Takuya asked.

"I don't know" Zoe admitted and handed them their D-tectors.

Ophanimon crashed into a rock and it shattered. "He's too strong I got no other choice" Ophanimon said. "Sefirot Crystals" Ten little rainbow color crystals flew towards Cherubimon. Cherubimon shot a blow at the crystals. Cherubimon was thrown over and he hang over a rock.

"He's done for" J.P said.

"But where Ophanimon?" I asked. Takuya D-tector started to talk. She said that she underestimates the power of darkness and hatred Cherubimon had and his power was too strong. She said we had to combine the powers of the 11 legendary warriors. With the last of her powers she had change our D-tectors. Koji's and Takuya's and mine D-tector changed ours evolve. My D-tector was now all golden.

"But the rest of our D-tectors look the same." J.P whined.

"Hey there a digiegg" Tommy shouted.

"So that means Ophanimon's…" Zoe trailed on. "But how do we combine all the spirits?" I asked as I looked into my new D-tector. I saw the cage Relemon was in shattered I gasped. "Relemon" I said happily.

"Look deep within yourself" Takuya stated we did so and we saw the spirits within ourselves. We started to switch our spirits around, we all knew what we were suppose to do.

"Wind into fire." Zoe said.

"Ice into fire" Tommy said.

"Darkness into light" Koichi said.

"Thunder into light" J.P said.

"Ku (Void) into Light" I said. "Ku (Sky) into Fire" I said and Relemon jumped out of my D-tector.

Takuya unify evolved to EmperorGreymon and Koji unify spirit evolved to MagnaGarurumon.
