Me: Wazzuuuuuuuuup?! I don't own Digimon.
Tai: What would you-never mind; I know already.
Me: Good.
Tai: You wouldn't put me with Matt, would you?
Me: AHHH! I don't know who's denser, Davis, Ash or you! I'd put you with SORA!
Sora: Someone say my name?
Me: Talk to him! Your boyfriend seems to have lost his mind.
Sora: (blushes) W-What?
Me: Has everyone in the world of Digimon gone crazy?
Tai: Just about. Whoa! What do you mean "boyfriend?" You'd better not mean Matt!
Me: Sora, please slap some sense into him!
(Sora slaps Tai)
Tai: OW!
Sora: Sorry, Tai. He told me to!
Me: (sighs) I'm gonna go nuts…
Digimon
The Evil Clone
Chap. VIII-Crests and Digi-Eggs-restored for Evil?
T.K.: We didn't know what to expect when Sora, Yolei, Kari and Mimi went AWOL with Tai and Davis, but when they came back, the girls were snoozing away and Tai and Davis insisted they were okay. When morning came, Matt knew he had to get over Sora, but didn't know how to go about it until Tai set him straight-although I don't see how telling your best friend you planned to marry the same girl he'd had his eye on ever since the two of them were in diapers helps. Anyway, Taichi kidnapped Matt and Gabumon and he insisted that Matt join him in the pursuit of power. Matt refused and declared that he'd love Sora only as a friend would. That alone gave Gabumon the ability to Warp-Digivolve and restore Matt's Crest. Ken came in with Stingmon as backup and Matt had to admit that that was a kind thing Ken had done to help out someone he'd previously tried to kill. Ken's Crest was restored and Stingmon Mega Digivolved to GranKuwagamon! The tide's turning in our favor, and we only need three more Crests and Digi-Eggs!
"Hmm. Interesting." Koushiro "Izzy" Izumi noted on his computer. Joe Kido heard him-they were the only ones up on guard duty; everyone else was asleep.
"What is it, Izzy?"
"I believe I may have located our Crests as well as T.K.'s Crest and Digi-Egg. And unless I miss my guess, Cody's Digi-Eggs are there as well." Izzy explained.
"That's great! Where's there?!" Joe yelled insanely.
"SHHHH! Do you want to wake everyone up? You know how Mimi gets if you wake her up at 3:00 in the morning." Izzy replied irritably.
"Oh, sorry. Seriously, where's there?"
"Near a river not too far from here. I'll e-mail T.K. and Cody and let them know. It could be the key to activating our powers and finally having the strength needed to defeat Tai's clone once and for all."
"Great! Just what I need to be near-water."
"T.K.! Wake up, you've got mail!" Patamon insisted. T.K. woke up from his post.
"Patamon, you don't sound at all like those AOL commercials on TV." T.K. grumbled as he turned to his computer.
Boy with Knowledge: T.K., if you get this message, then you're obviously on guard duty but you probably fell asleep so Patamon will be waking you up soon. Here's the deal-I think I may have located the last of the Crests and Digi-Eggs, so I need you to get Cody and wake him up so that we can go to this river that's right around the corner from you guys. It'll take us longer to get there, but not too long. See you in a few minutes! Izzy
T.K. sighed as he walked over to Cody. "Wake up, Cody. OW!"
Cody had, on reflex alone, whacked T.K. with his kendo stick.
"Oops! Sorry, T.K. I thought you were an evil Digimon. What's going on?"
T.K. nodded as he pulled out his Digivice. "We'll explain on the way. Get Armadillomon up and Digivolving."
"Patamon Digivolve to…ANGEMON!!!"
Nodding, Cody woke Armadillomon up.
"Time to Digivolve, pal."
(yawns) "Right, Cody. Armadillomon Digivolve to…ANKYLOMON!!!"
"Ankylomon…"
"…Angemon…"
"DNA Digivolve to…SHAKKOUMON!!!"
Within minutes, they were off and ready for battle.
Once T.K. and Cody got to where they needed to get to, Shakkoumon deDigivolved to Patamon and Armadillomon. Izzy and Joe came up on Ikkakumon; Tentomon flew as fast as he could to keep up.
"The next time you wake me up at 3:00 in the morning, you'd better have breakfast ready, Izzy!" Tentomon warned irritably.
"Unless you want Tai or Matt or-shudders-Sora eating your share of the pancakes, you'll wait like everyone else. According to my Digivice, the Crests and Digi-Eggs are in a cave below us. So, we'll have to swim to get there, or we could all just ride on Ikkakumon-"
"Terra Destroyer!!"
WHAM! Black WarGreymon's attack decimated ½ of the ground under their feet! That revealed the cave that they needed to get to, though.
"-Or we could just have Black WarGreymon destroy the ground under our feet and go from there." Izzy concluded as he sweatdropped.
The four DigiDestined scrambled to the cave entrance as quick as possible with their partners behind them.
"PRODIGIOUS! I could spend a month down here studying these diamonds! How'd they get embedded in the face of the cave and how come Tai and the others weren't this fortunate to stumble across this?" Izzy asked in amazement.
"That's simple: The diamonds would've distracted everyone else-including Tai, Sora, Matt and Davis, but not you guys!" Tentomon declared calmly.
The others nodded. "Ohhhh…."
"SURPRISE! You're not going anywhere unless you hand over your Crests and Digi-Eggs." Black WarGreymon warned as he appeared at the front of the cave. Everyone else groaned.
"Get a brain cell! We don't have them yet!" Joe yelled impatiently.
"What? Crap! I wasted a good line for nothing!" The Dragon Digimon grumbled angrily as he flew off.
After walking down the cave for a while, T.K. looked at his Digivice. It was glowing. "Guys, I've got something!" The boys raced forward while the Digimon tried catching up. They almost ran into their Crests on the wall but stopped.
T.K., Joe and Izzy stepped forward first. They effortlessly picked up their Crests and started glowing, as did their Digimon.
"What gives? The others had to go through tough battles before receiving their Crests, why not us?" Joe demanded heatedly.
"Possibly because some battles wouldn't rely on reliability, knowledge or hope all the time, Joe." Izzy remarked. "Pun not intended." He added.
"Funny." Joe retorted as Cody stepped in his place; T.K. stayed where he was. The Digi-Eggs appeared and they picked them up with ease.
"I preferred the temple as opposed to this." Cody noted.
"You got off easy. I still have to come to a cave." T.K. said.
Black WarGreymon reappeared and their Digimon finally Digivolved!
"Tentomon Warp-Digivolve to…HERCULES KABUTERIMON!!!"
"Gomamon Warp-Digivolve to…MARINE ANGEMON!!!"
"Patamon Warp-Digivolve to…SERAPHIMON!!!"
"Armadillomon Mega Digivolve to…VIKEMON!!!"
The Digimon Analyzer popped up as Izzy exclaimed in shock, "Amazing! Hercules Kabuterimon's Tentomon's Mega form! His Giga Scissor Claw and Mega Electro Shocker are nothing to sneeze about! The Mega form of Gomamon, Marine Angemon, has a strange attack: Ocean Love. Seraphimon's Seven Heavens attack is twice as fatal as MagnaAngemon's Gate of Destiny. Finally, Vikemon's Arctic Blizzard is massive and deadly!"
Black WarGreymon sweatdropped a bit as he found himself staring down four Mega Digimon.
"Another time, when I am not that outnumbered, DigiDestined!" The Digimon vanished and the boys face faulted in shock. Their Digimon shrank back to their Rookie forms, since they didn't have to battle.
"No way! We go through all this trouble to come here and get the Crests and Digi-Eggs and we don't have to battle anybody?" Joe asked in shock.
The others nodded.
"I could get used to this! SUPER JOE SAVES THE DAY AGAIN!" Joe exclaimed. Izzy and T.K. sweat dropped.
Camp. The team had reassembled themselves after getting the e-mail from Izzy and T.K. When they finally got back, they only had to answer one question:
"Did you guys kick butt?" Davis asked.
"Yeah! We won easily!" lied Joe. Cody, Izzy and T.K. rolled their eyes in mock sarcasm. A moment later, Daemon, Taichi, Black WarGreymon, Arukenimon and Mummymon appeared.
"Think again!" Daemon declared. The DigiDestined jumped to their feet in shock and anger.
"Hand over those Crests and Digi-Eggs-if you want to live!"
Black WarGreymon advised.
"Fat chance, pal! You want these Crests and Digi-Eggs, you'll have to get 'em yourselves!" Davis warned. The others nodded as they prepared to activate their recently discovered powers. Taichi and Tai faced off and were seconds from activating their powers.
"You don't really think you'll win, do you?" Taichi taunted.
Tai felt like laughing. "We've got a significant number of Digimon, all of whom can go to the Mega level, and you guys have just him!" Tai pointed to Black WarGreymon. Daemon shook his head.
"Au contraire, DigiDestined. There's one more playing card I have yet to play." Daemon snapped his fingers and an Android Digimon appeared-who looked like MetalGarurumon!
"That's Black MetalGarurumon! His Torpedoes of Flames literally burn his enemies to a crisp! I wouldn't want to be in his way!" Gabumon exclaimed.
"You'll have to if we want to win this!" Matt objected.
"I am about to level the playing field!" Daemon rose his hands and the two Mega Digimon rose to the skies.
"Black WarGreymon…"
"…Black MetalGarurumon…"
"DNA Digivolve to…BLACK OMNIMON!!!"
The DigiDestined gasped in shock as they faced down their most evilest of foes, who used to be an ally for the powers of Good.
Davis summed it up in two words: "We're screwed."
