Part 13

Perceptmon licked her lips dangerously and flew above everyone's heads. "Shall we start or are you just going to stand around all day?"

"Let's get this over with," Merwoman replied, joining her enemy in the air. Suddenly she got a flashback back to when the village was being destroyed.

"Yes, let's do it then," Perceptmon replied.

Merwoman frowned and extended her hands. "Aquatic Shocker!"

"Ha! Missed!" Perceptmon exclaimed happily as she side stepped the attack. She then charged Merwoman, finding a force matching her strength. Perceptmon continued pushing her body weight as Merwoman did the same. When they finally broke apart, each fired an attack at the same time.

"Aquatic Shocker!"

"Acidic Light!" Black energy swirled dangerously towards Merwoman's attack.

Merwoman used all of her strength, but found that her attack was weakening. The black energy was coming closer and closer. Merwoman started to remember the pain, horror, and torment of her home, family, and friends destroyed. Remembering her silent oath that evil would not win as long as she was around, this gave her more will power. Soon she was pushing the black energy away. With a final war cry, she closed her eyes and released more energy.

"No! This can't be happening!" screamed Perceptmon as she felt a hole being ripped through her stomach. Then she felt her body go numb, and soon darkness overtook her.

"Yeah! She's gone now," cheered a small and unfamiliar voice.

"Who are you?" inquired Delia.

Everyone stared at the gray looking Digimon curiously. It resembled a Koromon, except it had two pointy ears.

"I can't believe you don't recognize me. I was Aquamon and Merwoman, but now I'm Musamon," replied the small voice.

"Muwahahahaha!" cackled an evil voice. "Savor your victory," Magikmon said darkly as he placed the limp body of Perceptmon in his arms. "I am sorry I never told you that I love you," he said as she disappeared forever. For a brief moment, his face softened. "You will pay dearly for my heartache." Anger and resentment now burned in his eyes.

As if on cue the skies and city darkened quickly, leaving the stars and moon shedding the only light on everyone on the battlefield. The silence echoed like someone scratching fingernails on a chalkboard.

Magikmon let loose a bloodcurdling war cry as he let loose his Magik Dust attack. Brown dust shot out and enclosed Magikmon, allowing him to triple in size.

"Patamon digivolve to Angemon!"

"Gatomon digivolve to Angewoman!"

"Birdramon digivolve to Garudamon!"

"Palmon digivolve to Togemon!"

"Agumon warp digivolve to WarGreymon!"

"Gabumon warp digivolve to MetalGarurumon!"

"Musamon digivolve to Aquamon!"

"Tentomon digivolve to Kabuterimon!"

"Gomamon digivolve to Ikkakumon!"

"Falcamon digivolve to Freedamon!" She looked like Perceptmon and Angewoman, except for the head piece and white skin color. She still had the same wings from when she was Falcamon. Her outfit was blue and her hair was silver.

Magikmon laughed mockingly at the Digimon in front of him. "Ha! You think you can beat me? Pathetic!"

Delia stepped up and yelled, "Aquamon digivolve!"

"Aquamon digivolve to Merwoman!"

"You too Togemon."

"Togemon digivolve to Lilymon!"

"Muwahahahaha! Prepare to meet your end!" Magikmon crowed. He looked directly at Lilymon. "Laser Strike!"

Lilymon gracefully dodged the attack and fired back hers. "Flower Cannon!"

"Electro Shocker!"

"Wing Blade!"

"Hand of Fate!"

"Terra Force!"

"Arial Destiny!" yelled Freedamon, as she unleashed a white fire in the shape of a falcon. It flew towards Magikmon's stomach. He grimaced in slight pain as he was burned there.

"Aquatic Shocker!"

"Shadow Beam!" Magikmon bellowed, as he aimed it at MetalGarurumon.

MetalGarurumon dodged another attack from Magikmon. "Metal Wolf Snout!"

"No! Ikkakumon! Watch out!" Joe yelled extending his hands. "Water!"

"Ikkakumon digivolve to Zudomon!"

"We keep on attacking and nothing is happening," Asia said.

"Vulcan's Hammer!"

"Yeah, he's just too strong. Kabuterimon you'd better digivolve!" Izzy exclaimed.

"Kabuterimon digivolve to MegaKabuterimon!" "Horn Blaster!"

"Celestial Arrow!"

"Ah!" Tai exclaimed. "What are we doing watching our Digimon fight? We have to help them!" Tai then shot out fire from his hands. "Fire!"

"Right," Tk agreed. "Laser Rings!"

Matt joined them too. "Laser!"

Joe nodded. "Water!"

"Lightning!" shouted Izzy.

The Angelics all looked at each other at the same time. They all attacked at the same time. "Golden Illusion! Blue Wonder! Tear Blast! Fairy's Light! Pixie's Call!" They all aimed for the exact spot, his stomach.

"Aquatic Shocker!"

"Ariel Destiny!"

Magikmon howled and then, the unexpected happened. Magikmon digivolved to his mega form. "Magikmon digivolve to UltiMagikmon!" He now was now towering a little over the buildings around Odaiba. His outfit remained the same, except his hat was gone and two curved black horns rested on his head. His eyes and hair were now red.

Everyone gasped at the mega in front of them.

"I don't…" trailed Sora.

"…Believe this," Delia finished.

"Everyone! Hit him with your most powerful attacks!" Tai cried out. "Fire!"

"Water!"

"Laser!"

"Lightning!"

"Laser Rings!"

"Siren's Lark!"

Suddenly Kari's eyes started glowing white. She could feel new energy coursing through her veins. "Celestial Dawn!" A beam of millions of white stars, moons, and suns shot out from her hands.

UltiMagikmon howled from the pain that was inflicted on his horns. Suddenly, they both crumbled and fell off.

Mimi's eyes started to glow yellow, as her hair and dress was lightly being blown from an unnatural wind. Mimi then closed her eyes and folded her arms in a x, so that her right hand touched her left shoulder and her left hand touched her right shoulder. "Razor Beauty!" A ball of energy was swirled with pink and yellow. Mimi then freed her hands of that position, extending her arms horizontally. The ball of energy then took the shape of a rose and shattered into multiple flower petals of light yellow and pink.

UltiMagikmon screamed as he was hit in the arm by the petals. When the attack finished, his upper arm had multiple cuts all over it. "You will pay for that!"

"Aquatic Shocker!"

"Horn Blaster!"

"Metal Wolf Snout!"

"Wing Blade!"

"Flower Cannon!"

"Vulcan's Hammer!"

"Hand of Fate!"

"Celestial Arrow!"

"Terra Force!"

UltiMagikmon threw out his hands and yelled "Skull's Death!"

It hit all of the Digimon, except for Freedamon and Merwoman. They all collapsed on the ground motionless.

"Nooooooooo!" the Digidestined cried!

"Ariel Destiny!"

"Aquatic Shocker!"

The Digimon that were lying motionless started to open their eyes and get up. Once they were all standing, they were shocked to find that they couldn't move anything. They watched helplessly, praying for a miracle.

After seeing Garudamon gettng hit, Sora's eyes began to glow a bright blue as a golden aura appeared around her. Her eyes snapped shut as she floated upwards.

"Sora!" cried everyone.

Sora ignored them and the aura around her grew into a brighter golden white light. She could feel the energy surging through her body as she yelled, "Royal Nemesis!" Gold and white energy shot out from her entire body. It shot UltiMagikmon back a few feet, causing an enormous cloud of white smoke and dust. Sora's eyes snapped open and she fell from the sky.

Tai leapt up and caught the limp Sora in his arms. "Is he gone?" asked Tai.

As if on cue, loud footsteps were heard. "It appears not," Izzy said.

"Huh?" everyone asked.

Asia shook her head. "Deadbeat over there means that he's still alive." She stared innocently away from Izzy's glare.

"Fools! You cannot get rid of me that easily! Aw! What happened to your poor precious princess Tai? Is she hurt? Ha! What a fool!" They then saw a badly bruised limping UltiMagikmon emerge.

Tai's eyes burned with fury, as did Delia's. Her eyes began to flash a brilliant blue, matching Sora's eyes when she attacked.

"Delia, your eyes!" Matt exclaimed.

"A new power," Asia whispered amazed. "Wow."

Sora opened her eyes by now, and was standing with the help of Tai.

Delia ignored the noise around her and closed her eyes. Her eyes snapped open to reveal them glowing a silver light. Her hair blew back wildly as she started to levitate about a foot off the ground. A silver aura circled around her as she yelled, "Silver Essence!" Silver mist shot out from her mouth engulfing UltiMagikmon. He screamed in pain as he was reduced to half of his size.

"You wench! Making me half of the size of this building! Luckily, your attack was not powerful enough to kill me! Ha! Skull's Death!" The attack hit Freedamon, causing her to fall into the same fate as her fellow Digimon.

Delia cried out.

"Only one Digimon left," UltiMagikmon said gleefully.

Asia made a mental wish that Merwoman would digivolve. Suddenly, Merwoman started to glow. "Merwoman digivolve to AngeMerwoman!" She looked the same, except her hair was now blue and her skin color was now a creamy white color. She also had two wings of white extending from her back. Asia's wish came true.

Everyone looked in awe at AngeMerwoman.

AngeMerwoman suddenly made a long staff of blue appear out of nowhere. On the slender stick, were pictures of mermaids and angels carved on it. At the top of the staff was a round hollow circle with a sapphire in the middle of it. It appeared that the sapphire was held by some invisible force, causing it to stay floating in the center of the circle.

"What?! How can this be?" UltiMagikmon asked.

"You have caused pain and suffering to many innocent beings. Now prepare to meet your doom!" AngeMerwoman fired back.

"Ha! I have been a mega longer than you have. I shall triumph! Skull's Death!"

AngeMerwoman raised her staff in front of her and yelled, "Oceanic Destiny!" A swirling blue light hit the black light. They both pushed harder until their attacks dissipated.

"It appears my powers match yours. We are equal in strength!" UltiMagikmon spat out hatefully.

Asia then closed her eyes and concentrated on helping AngeMerwoman to defeat him. She then started to glow and levitate a foot off of the ground.

"What are you doing?" asked Izzy.

"Be quiet! Don't break her concentration. She's trying to give her Digimon more power," Mimi said.

"How do you know this?" asked Tk.

"Our powers! ESP! Did you forget about that?" Kari said.

Asia kept thinking of her family and new found friends. She did not want anyone to hurt any more of the innocent.

Suddenly, AngeMerwoman started to glow.

"What?! No! How can this be? A stage past the mega? I've heard of stories about only one Digimon in the past achieving that level. The royal stage," UltiMagikmon practically whispered in awe and shock.
