Episode 5: Creature in the Darkness
"Thunder Rage!" Shockstarimon growled, running around Karomon, giving the projection that there were multiple ShockStarimon's running around Karomon, confusing her, and then Shockstarimon leaped up, and the shocks surrounding it's body gathered at it's eyes, and a gigantic shock wave hit Karomon, causing her to collapse to the ground, and a black spider emerged from the body, and leaped into the air and dissolved.
"Come on, guys," Angel said "We'll catch up with Matt later. If we don't keep moving now, those guys stalking Neko will catch up and ruthlessly kill us."
"We can't abandon Matt," I said, looking the direction he left "He would never do that to us. Besides, if what you say is true, don't you think the Great Lord's will ruthlessly kill Matt as well?"
"Well," Angel search for ideas, then smiled "They're after you more then him, so they'll probably capture him and keep him prisoner and make us walk into a trap."
"Exactly."
"So we should wait here and take on whatever attacks us..." Angel turned around quickly "I'll tell the other's."
"Wait, Angel," I said quickly.
"Yes?" She asked as she turned back to me.
I scratched my head "Was I the only who saw the black spider?"
She shook her head "No. That spider caused Karomon to be evil, that's why we're nursing her right now. The Great Lords use them to make any digimon they want to be their puppets."
"That's sad," I said "Being taken like that..."
Angel nodded "Yea... that's why I've been training Starimon hard lately... You may not be able to fight the Black Widows, but you sure can run from them."
Angel looked at me for a minute, we both stood with nothing to say to one another, and she nodded, then walked out of site to tell our digimon the latest news.
I was woken by the noise of crying...
"Starimon?" I asked surprised, seeing her only a few feet from me, partly covered by branches. I got up, nearly falling over from sitting down so long, and sat next to Starimon.
She looked up at me "You probably want me to stop. Sorry." She sniffed a coupled times, then turned away.
I looked at her "No, Why are you crying?"
"You don't want to know."
"Sure I do." I crossed my legs, then leaned agents a boulder that was behind me.
She slowly turned around and faced me, and sniffed again "I miss my friends and family."
"Did Angel kidnap you from them?!" I asked surprised.
She shook her head "No! Angel would never do that. She didn't kidnap me, she more gave me a fresh start for a new life. A better life."
"I don't understand." I shook my head slowly.
"The Great Lords set my village on fire one night... everyone was asleep but me. I always went on walks outside of the village. When I returned there was nothing. I remember when I was coming back from the walk I heard the echoing scream of my mother..."
"That's so sad." I said "And Angel found you and adopted you?"
"I stayed at the outskirts of my village for weeks, and Angel found me, nearly starving to death, and showed me that you can have memories of people you love, and still go on with life."
"I didn't know that's how your bond is so strong." I nodded.
She nodded in agreement "I always can imagine what I'd be doing right now if the Great Lords didn't burn my village. I would be at home helping my mom take care of my three younger sisters that were all just a couple months old. I would never of known the meaning of digivolving, though... I would of never met my best friend, Angel."
"Well, don't worry, Starimon." I faintly smiled "We'll get revenge on the Great Lords. If it's the last thing I do,.. we do... we'll get revenge."
"Thanks."
There was a sudden rustle in the bushes beside me.
"Did you hear that?" I asked as I got up quickly, and Starimon automatically hid behind me for protection.
"What did you hear, Neko?" Starimon asked me.
There was a sudden whisper of pain "Help me..."
"Who are you?" I asked out loud.
"Black... Widow..."
I could make out an image of something that looked almost human, but taller then me, and had a robe on or something.
"A Black Widow?!" Starimon said scared, turning around, then back at the figure.
"Tell Matt..." The whisper paused "Tell Matt T.K. is in trouble..."
"Come into the open," I said stepping forward, holding out my right hand.
The shadow repelled my gesture, and quickly ran off.
"Should we chase it?" Starimon asked.
I shook my head "No. It's obvious he wants to stay alone and away from civilization... all we can do is wait for Matt and find out who this T.K. is."
Starimon nodded "Right."
"Right now I'm thinking more of sleeping then anything else." I yawned, then fell down and laid down beside the boulder.
Starimon laughed "All you want to do is sleep!... but in this case I could agree."
"Sleeping on the job?" A voice woke me.
I sat up, rubbing my head "Who are you?"
"Sent to teach you, and you still can't remember me?" He laughed.
"Matt? Your back?" I rubbed my eyes "What took you?"
"I ran into some problems along the way."
I looked at his arms, that were holding up a small infant digimon.
"What happened to Gabumon?" I asked.
He looked at me, then shook his head "Never mind that. We just got caught up at the wrong place at the worst time."
"A stranger told us to tell you that T.K. was in great trouble."
"T.K. is in trouble?!" He asked, nearly dropping the baby digimon.
"The stranger looked almost like he had wings..." I said, remembering finally.
Matt paused, then shook his head "It can't be..."
"Can't be who?"
"It must of been Angemon,... T.K.'s digimon."
I nodded "So T.K. is a digidestined, and I'm guessing your... older brother?"
Matt laughed for a few seconds, then stopped "No, he's younger."
"And Angemon?"
Starimon heard the entire conversation, and nodded "Angemon, protector of the more weak. His special attacks include Fist of Hope and Group Flare."
"What's Group Flare?" I asked.
"That's when ever digidestined digimon put all there greatest attacks all in the use of Angemon, and he turned it into a ray of energy."
"Ouch." I said, then turned to Matt "We better keep moving. The Great Lords may of tracked us down again."
Matt nodded, then threw the baby digimon into the air and it began to glow.
I turned away from the light, then turned to see Garurumon.
"Garurumon!" I smiled and hugged him.
"Hello, Neko." He smiled.
We gathered up Angel, Nekomon and Karomon and we all set out to find the others.
"Thunder Rage!" Shockstarimon growled, running around Karomon, giving the projection that there were multiple ShockStarimon's running around Karomon, confusing her, and then Shockstarimon leaped up, and the shocks surrounding it's body gathered at it's eyes, and a gigantic shock wave hit Karomon, causing her to collapse to the ground, and a black spider emerged from the body, and leaped into the air and dissolved.
