Powers Released #2:
Ice and Earth
The next morning, Izzy called everyone to a quiet part of school and told then what he had found out from Gennai. "I read the prophecy over again last night and I understand the first part. 'Friendship will bring Compassion, without one both will fall' means that Matt brought Alexis to us to meet. Last night I got a call from Matt saying Alexis had gone to the park to meet me. I told him I didn't know what he was talking about so he left to find her. Without her, he left." Izzy explained.
"So what does it mean when they fall?" Sora asked.
"It means they fall into the digital world. Like we did back at camp, six years ago." Izzy replied.
Tai was confused as usual. "So they went back?"
"Presicely. Now Gennai said that there's a new evil that wants Alexis. He doesn't know why, but right now all we know is we have to go save them."
"All of us? What about Joe?" Mimi asked. Everyone knew she had been with Joe before he went to college. He wasn't very far, but with their different schedules they barely saw each other.
"It means him too. I've contacted him and told him to meet us at the park. Only the six of you can go though. I have to stay behind here." Izzy said.
"But why?" T.K. asked.
"Because I have to be here to monitor everything that goes on. Besides, the last part of the prophecy says 'Knowledge will bring nine home'. Which means I have to be here to pull you out."
"Ok, then it's settled. Everyone in agreement?" Tai looked around at everyone. They all nodded and went to their classes.
Alexis awoke in a dark room. It was damp and she could hear water dripping. She looked around her surroundings and found the walls were made of stone. She pushed herself off the ground and felt cold metal touch her wrists. She glanced down to see she was chained to the wall, but was given at least four feet of chain. Why would someone chain her up and give her leeway? She didn't know, but what she did know was that she was cold.
Even though she had left at night, she had worn her cut-off shorts from school that day and her lavender sleek shirt. Once up she tried to break the chains on a rock in an attempt to break them but it was no use. She just leaned against the wall and slowly slid down. She pulled her legs up to her chest and tried to keep warm.
She knew where she was. She was in the digiworld. But she didn't know why or how. Her dream had become a reality and now she was living a nightmare. As these thoughts entered her mind she heard footsteps coming her way. She got up and went as far as the chains would allow her to go, but as the creature came into view she went as far away as possible. All she could see was a large dark shadow. It resembled a human, but with a cape. It's head was an animal of somesort. A bull. Probably the same shadow that grabbed her at the park and sucked her into digiworld.
"Ah, I see my sleeping angel has awakened." It said in a deep satanic voice.
"Get away from me!" Alexis shouted.
"Now now. I don't intend to hurt you that much." It gestured with it's hand and Alexis lifted off of the ground and floated towards the creature. Only the chains stopped her from hitting him. "I only intend to hurt you as much as neccessary to draw your friends back into my realm."
Alexis was now right in front of it. "I don't know what your talking about." She said. The digidestined couldn't get involved. She wouldn't bring them to harm.
"I think you do. You know who you are. If you didn't you wouldn't be carrying these." He took out her digivice and crest.
"I found those. They aren't mine." Well that was half true.
He drew her closer. "Now, now. No need to lie. I think I'll start now." He dropped her from where she was and she fell right in front of his feet. She landed with a thump, but nothing was broken. She got up on her hands and knees and tried to get up.
"Are you bowing to me? No need to." He said. This made Alexis angry. She pushed up and kicked the creature where she thought his shin was.
He yelled in pain and swatted her aside. She hit the rock with teeth-jarring impact and slumped to the floor. "You imbasil! How dare you try to attack me. Do you think your brave?"
"Only compared to some." She replied. He laughed and threw his hand forward. Out of his hand came lighting bolts. They hit Alexis right on. She couldn't avoid them because of her run in with the wall. She just screamed in agony until he stopped. She could barely breath, let alone move.
"I will kill you when the time comes. Right now. I must go meet your friend. The gaurdian of friendship will be the next to feel my wrath." He said as he turned to leave. Alexis knew he meant Matt. She had dragged him into this and now he was going to suffer. When the creature left, Alexis had no strengh left to do anything, but cry. She cried that whole first night. Her first night in the digiworld.
Matt found himself in a forest, which didn't surprise him one bit. Everytime he entered the digiworld it was in a forest. He didn't know where to start looking for Alexis. He looked at his digivice. It was working and it told him she was north of his location. He took one step when he heard a tree branch snap. He froze and looked around. The trees seemed to be looking at him. He didn't see anything so he took another few step when he heard the same noise again. He froze and looked around.
He still didn't see anything but trees, but the trees were getting closer. Then he knew what happened. He cursed himself and broke into a dead run. He made it maybe ten feet went a branch from the ground came up and tripped him. He turned around and saw those "trees" were none other than Woodmon. He tried to get up again but a vine wrapped around his foot and draged him back.
Matt knew if those trees touched him his energy would be drained. Mimi had told him that from what Ogremon had told her. He tried to find something to grab on to but it was no use. "Why don't you guys leave me alone. If you know what's good for you." He made a threat. He knew it didn't carry any weight. Without Gabumon, Matt couldn't defend himself too well.
The Woodmon just laughed as their leader came forth. Another vine came around his otherfoot and two more on his wrists. "Our master invites you to his castle."
"Sorry, but I have a dinner date in a half hour." Matt replied.
"Oh I believe I must insist." The leader said. He reached with one of his branches and wrapped it around Matt body. Matt screamed as he felt his energy leave him as he slipped into darkness.
Tai and the others met at the park as agreed. Well, mostly agreed. Joe wasn't too keen on going, but knew he had little choice. To be honost, Tai was happy to go back. "It sure is going to be great to see Agumon after all this time."
Izzy looked up off his computer. "I hate to bring this up now, but you're on your own."
Everyone looked at him with a what-do-you-mean? look. "Our digimon were reconfigured with the rest of the digital world. They're digieggs now." Izzy explained.
"You mean all our digimon can't help us?" Kari said.
"Nope, you're going to have to save them on your own. I can help you from here. I'll keep in contact through your digivices. I did it with Mimi. I pretty sure I can do it with all of yours." Izzy said.
"Ok, well let's do this." Tai said. Now a little less thrilled about going back. "Everyone know's what to do." Everyone took out their digivices, which opened the portal and they all went in.
"Good luck, you guys." Izzy said, knowing they couldn't hear him.
Matt awoke in a dark room and looked around. He didn't feel all that great. He had a headache the size of a Whamon. Matt's gaze soon fell on Alexis who was chained to the wall next to him. Though Matt was chained too, he could reach Alexis. He brought her up and placed her head in his lap. He wasn't sure if she was unconscious or asleep, but he could tell she'd taken quite a beating from her captors. Her face was scapped and her body was brised in several places. She had a few burn marks that Matt could see on her stomach through her shirt.
"Hey Alexis. Wake up." He whispered. She moved slowly and opened her eyes.
"Matt?" She asked. She tried to get up, but wheezed in pain. In the end she needed help sitting up. "What are you doing here?" She asked.
"I was at the park when you disappeared. I followed you here." He explained.
"I'm sorry." She said. "Now I've doomed us both."
"Hey, don't say that. If you know everything about the digidestined, you should know we always come out on top. We've been against so-called unbeatable odds and came out triumphant. Didn't we?" She nodded.
"Ok, now let's see if we can't escaped and get back to physics huh?" Matt said. She laughed.
"I don't know what's worse." She replied with a smile. "Do you have enough strength?"
Matt wasn't really sure, but he lied anyway. "Sure do." He got up, but a litle too fast and went tumbling towards the ground. He would've hit his head but Alexis caught him and steadied him. He looked up at her. "Thanks," he said with one of his smiles.
Alexis shugged and smiled. "Just returning the favor." Then she winked. She smiled more, but stopped.
"What's wrong?" Matt asked looking around.
"Someone's coming." She said. "He's back."
"Who's back?" Matt asked.
"The one who brought me here." She said.
Matt turned his head towards the entrance and saw the creature enter. He felt his knees buckle under him and Alexis had to steady him again. "Apoclymon." He said.
"Ah so you recognize me?" He said. "I thought without my cube puzzle body I would elude you."
"Sorry, but there's no mistaking that ugly face." Alexis said.
"Oh, so you recognize me too now do you?" He asked.
"Let's just say I see you in a new light." She replied. She couldn't recognize him before becasue it was so dark. Now though it was lighter and she could make out his face. Same horns, same teeth,some digimon. Everything without the claws.
"But how?"Matt managed to say.
"I signed up for a reconfiguration job. How do you like my make-over?" He said.
"I don't think you're going to be around long enough to enjoy it." Alexis said coldly.
"I think you're are. See, your other friends have joined us and are headed this way. I intend to use my pawn to lure them here. That means you." He said pointing to Alexis. The bonds on her arms broke and she was pulled away from Matt. Without the extra support Matt went down on one knee.
"Matt help!" Alexis yelled as Apoclymon grabbed her. "
Let me go you overgrown pin-cushion!" Apocymon just laughed and exited the dungeon.
"Alexis, NO!"But Matt couldn't get up. Then he remembered the crest he had. Why hadn't Apoclymon taken it away. Then Matt remembered that Apoclymon had broke them. He must think they're still gone! Matt knew he had to help Alexis. He told himself he was going to protect her. It was his responsability!
Matt stopped struggling and concentrated on the chains. He knew with the power of the crest he could break the chains. He started feeling a cold chill surround him, become one with him.
My power as a friend
Is to protect those I care about
May the power of ice be released
He said this encantation like he knew it his whole life. The power he was feling went into the chains and in an instant, the turned to ice. Matt was in a fury and yanked his hands away from the wall. The force shattered the Ice and he was freed. He didn't question what happened. He simply ran to the bars of his cell and threw his hand forward. The bar turned to ice and when he punched them, the broke.
He went off in the direction of Alexis' screams until he found himself in a large carern. Apoclymon was no where to be seen. So the old digimon didn't want to do his own dirty worl? Matt though. He had to get his underlings to do it. Matt hid behind a boulder and watched what was going on.
"Let me go!" Alexis yelled. The digimon was unknown to Matt, but he didn't like it at all. "Who are you anyway."
"My name is Cyclomon. And I have every intention of fofilling, my master's request. That does not include releasing you." It replied.
"Well, that explains the one eye thing." Alexis said. "What are you putting me in anyway?"
"Think of it as a focusing device. This beam will shoot at you and will be reverted up towards the sky. Unfortunatly, taking in that much energy will kill you. But that's part of the plan. After the beam is release, your friends shouyld come here. And then my master will have his revenge."
Now relizing her danger, Alexis tried to break free of the bonds that held her in the device. "I won't let you harm the digidestined." She said.
"I'm afraid you have little choice. It's done" Cyclomon said. "Are you ready?"
"Noooo!!!" Yelled Matt. "You will not harm her!" He came out of his hiding spot.
"So the guardien of friendship has escaped." Cyclomon turned towards him. Mat looked at him and trrew his hand forward. Cyclomon was frozen in midstride and stopped dead in his tracks.
Alexis was shocked. "How did you..."
"No time to explain." Matt said running up to her. He waved his hand over the bonds and they turned to ice. He then broke them and set Alexis free. "We have to get out of her and warn the others." They got down and started to leave when The frozen statue and Cyclomon started to shake. "He's breaking lose!" Matt yelled.
Alexis then though of something. Eight powers will be release. Eight powers within them. "I can do it!" She said.
Matt turned to her. "What do you mean?"
"Your ice. It's your power that was mentioned in the prophecy! I think I have it too." She explained.
"Well, it's worth a shot. Cyclomon's almost free." Matt stepped back.
Alexis ran over and grabbed her tag and crest from the machine and put them away. The digivice in her pocket and her crest of compassion around her neck. She could feel it start to glow. She concentrated and felt the energy building inside her.
"Compassion warms the heart
Like the earth warms the soil
May the power of earth be realsed"
She raised her hands and the ground started to shake.
"He's almost free." Matt yelled over the rumbling.
"Not if I can help it." She lower her hands, but made sure her hand passed over Cyclomon. As if on cue, the earth opened up and a large crack split the ground. Cyclomon feel through the crack just as he broke free of the ice. He yelled and was gone. The earth stopped shaking and it was over.
"You did it!" Mat said picking up Alexis and twirling her around. He put her down and grabbed her hand. "Now let's get out of here." They found the exit to the cave and escaped into the forest. They had to find their frineds.
Tai and the others had been searching ever since they got back and the digivice's reading was always the same. Due North it beeped. Tai was getting annoyed. "How far could they have gotten in one night anyway?" He asked. The others felt like a rest and sat down for a while. Joe sat with Mimi, T.K. sat with Kari, and Sora sat next to Tai.
Sora looked up and saw two figures running their way. "Guys!" She yelled as she stood up. Evertone was one their feet and ready. She strained her eyes to see who was coming. She recognized them right away. "Matt! Alexis!" She yelled.
Everyone ran to meet them and they were happy to be together again. Matt explained what happened at the castle and who the new evil was. Tai then spoke into his digivice and relayed the message to Izzy. "Did you get all that?"
"Sure did." Izzy's voice came back. "Prodigious! Guess that's why you don't need your digimon one this trip."
"Well, we have to go up against him. So let's get going." Tai said.
Everyone agreed and Alexis felt like she actually belong. What she never said though was she also knew Matt and her made a pretty good couple.
What will happen next? Tai and Sora come into thier powers. But you'll have to read to knew the rest.
Ice and Earth
