Digimon: Evil Revealed (Part Two: Betrayal)
I came out of the Digiport into Valerie's room. I looked around and saw her. She was laying on her bed, sleeping. The early morning sunlight streamed across her face. I walked over to her and leaned over her.
"Valerie, I'm sorry for leaving." I whispered in her ear. She stirred and looked up at me. Her face filled with shock. She sat up and put her arms around me. Her lips touched mine and all was forgiven.
"Why?" She asked, and that's all she asked.
"I was being stupid and stubborn. I heard you say, "Come back!" but, I was mad." I held her close. "I'm sorry. But, that's only one of the reasons I came back. We need to get to the Digital World and stop the attacks. I have a plan."
"Okay. But, it will take the others awhile to get ready. Want some breakfst?" She asked as if nothing had happened yesterday. She walked over to her closet and got out some clothes. "Listen, I'm sorry too. But, with losing Pengomon and all..." Tears welled up in her eyes. I froze for a second. No, concentrate. She hates you. My thoughts told me. I blinked and my mind was clear.
"It's my fault." That was more true than she realized. I allowed myself a quiet chuckle in my mind. "It is."
"That's why I love you." She came over and hugged me and kissed my cheek. "You're very forgiving."
Ha! Yes, I am very forgiving. I thought. I forgive after I wreak havoc. Just wait, you'll see how forgiving I am.
"You said something about breakfast?" What? Evil geniuses get hungry like any guy.
* * *
The breakfast conversation was pitiful. Mindless small talk, chitchat, meant to waste time. I faked enthusiam through the whole thing. Her parents had accepted me, the old weak me, and seemed very interested in my disappearence.
"Why were you gone yesterday?" Her dad asked.
"Um... well, we had a huge defeat yesterday and stuff happened." I said. Like I have to explain myself to you. I thought.
"Where's your monster?" Her mom asked, looking around the kitchen for Wormon.
"Oh, he's in the Digital World now, keeping an eye out for anything that could go wrong."
"Where's Valerie's monster?" Her dad asked. Valerie shifted in her seat uncomfortably.
"He uh.... was killed during the fight." Valerie said.
"WHAT!?" Her parents both cried. This is good, if she has issues at home, she won't be able to concentrate on the Digital World on my goings on. I ate, while watching Valerie getting verbally torn apart by her parents. I smiled when none of them were looking. Then, Valerie ran from the table, crying. Her brother, who had no clue what was going on, stared at his parents.
"Can I have some more waffles?" He asked. I stood and followed Valerie, leisurely.
* * *
I opened the door she slammed and closed it behind me.
"Well? When are you going to tell me that everything's okay and that you're here for me?" She asked while hugging a pillow against her chest. Tears streamed down her face.
"Nothing is okay." I said. "But, I am here for you." The words were not from me, but from the other me, the one that cared. I would have to take care of him soon.
"How could they yell at me like that? And in front of you?"
"We don't have time for this. We need to get to the Digital World." I said while pulling out the 2-Way from my pocket.
"GUYS, GET TO THE DIGITAL WORLD RIGHT NOW. VALERIE AND I ARE ON OUR WAY. WE WILL MEET YOU IN GRID V14. YOU SHOULD GET THERE SOON. I HAVE A FEELING THAT SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN THERE. BYE."
"Let's go." I said while hugging her.
"I'm useless without a Digimon."
"Valerie, you're a Digidestined. Digimon or no Digimon, you're part of the group." Too bad, too. I might not care for you as your toyfriend side of me, but I still have affection for you. Maybe I'll let you know about me before I destroy you. Maybe we could rule together. I thought sadly.
"Okay, but I'm just going to get in the way." You already have, you and your Diaper-Destined.
"Ah, no you won't. Let's go." I grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the computer. "Digiport open!" We landed in the Digital World seconds later. The others were there too. They all greeted each other. Stingmon appeared from the woods and flew slowly towards us. They all failed to notice the dark ring around his right wrist. I tapped my D3's button twice. That was the signal. Musyamon leapt out of the treetops. BlackWarGreymon landed in front of the group. Everyone cried out in shock. I reached into my backpack and put on my cloak. I put on the Digital glasses and everything was in a purple tint. Everyone looked at me when I didn't say anything. Their faces looked terrified when they saw me.
"Ta-da! Hello, kids. Didn't see this coming did you?" I reached into my backpack and pulled out a black whip with a gold pummel. I cracked it down in front of them and they hopped back, terrified like the vermin they were. "I do take surrenders."
"We'll never surrender!" Davy yelled at me. All of them nodded.
"I also take Digimon." I pointed towards Stingmon. Valerie looked at me with a look of disgust and anger.
"I hate you! All this time? You've been the guy we've been fighting?" She asked.
"Not quite, but, I don't have to explain myself to you. Any of you. Allow me to introduce myself." I said as Chamelamon appeared at my side, an exact duplicate of me.
"What?" Everyone gasped. Chamelamon changed into his grayish form and laughed.
"Okay, since I don't hear any surrenders, I take it you want to go down with the ship." I waved my hand dimissivly and sighed. "Okay. I hate to lose you guys though. Who will stand in my way and cause petty and trivial trouble for me? Attack them."
"Terra-Destroyer!" His orb of dark energy flew through the air.
"Agumon warp-digevolve to... oh no!" Agumon slumped to the ground sadly.
"Oh, did someone forget about those control transmitters? Ha! Your armor forms are no match for Chamelamon. He can take the form of any living creature, human or Digimon. I created him myself, I think I deserve a pat on the back." I smiled smugly. They couldn't win. "Show them."
"ChamelaClone!" He said as he grew taller and more lean. WarGreymon stood in front of the Digidestined. Valerie, you can't let her die. I thought. That was the only part of the old me I would keep. Valerie was a part of me, whether I be good or evil, she would be with me.
"I believe this is who you were trying for Agumon." I cracked the whip down on his snout. Davy grabbed him as he fell.
"You prick!" Ryan yelled. "Armor energize Gotsumon!"
"Gotsumon armor digevolve to... Digmon."
"Salamon armor digevolve to... Nefertimon!"
"Patamon armor digevolve to... Pegasusmon!" The armor Digimon stood poised to attack. I just laughed.
"Rock Cracking!" Digmon drilled into the ground and it shook.
"Terra-Force!" The grayish WarGreymon flung his orb at Digmon. Ryan screamed as Digmon went flying into the forest somewhere.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I just always take games like these so seriously." I said mockingly. The false WarGreymon was about to attack and I saw who it was; Valerie. He launched his attack. I snapped the whip out and it wrapped around her legs, pulling towards me. She shrieked as she hit the ground, barely escaping the blast. I stood above her and unwrapped the whip. The weak me, the good side, broke through.
"Forgive me.... I love you...." He said as tears streamed down his face. He blinked and I was back in control. "Go, get out of here and take the others. I may be evil, but at one time they were my friends. I get no pleasure of seeing all of you suffer."
"Go to hell." She said as she stood and ran back to the group. I turned towards Chamelamon, he had reverted back to his normal form.
"Now, as for you. Time to get Digital..." I said as I flung a dark ring at him. It enclosed around his neck. His eyes flashed red. "Now, get out of here. Maybe you can follow orders this time." He rumbled off into the forest.
"Equis Beam!" A green laser shot out of Pegasusmon's head, hitting Musyamon.
"Shogun Sword!" He slashed at his attacker, sending him flying and dedigevolving
"Cat's Eye Beam!" Two pink beams struck BlackWarGreymon in the chestplate.
"Oh, nice. How about I show you a real attack? Terra-Destroyer!!!" He flung his black/red orb and it smashed against the side of Nefertimon. Davy said something to them and they retreated into the forest. Valerie paused at the edge of the wood and stared at me with heartbroken eyes. Then, she disappeared into thicket.
* * *
I sat in my chair in the dark, staring at the screen that showed the DigiDestined conversing about the third defeat. I had opened a Digiport and watched them through that.
"I think he still has good in him." Valerie said, speaking for the first time in the entire 20 minutes I'd been watching them for. I chuckled. She had much hope. Everyone stared at her wide-eyed.
"Why do you think that?" Tara asked. "I mean, I really liked Cody and all but, he ordered Digimon to kill us!"
"Yes, but he saved me. And, I think he still has good in him. I know it. He was unwrapping my legs and he froze for a second. Then, he said, "Forgive me. I love you." He's just very confused. He went all evil again a second later. But, still, even when he was evil he said to me, "Get out of here. I don't want to hurt you guys." I know he's good. I saw it in his eyes."
I turned away from the screen and hunched over the computer.
"Yes. This will work nicely." I said quietly as I entered new data. On the computer screen a 3-D image of a scale-down dark ring floated. It was about the size of a normal ring. Yes, my plan would work. I reprogrammed it every few minutes, thinking of new updates to be made to it.
I came out of the Digiport into Valerie's room. I looked around and saw her. She was laying on her bed, sleeping. The early morning sunlight streamed across her face. I walked over to her and leaned over her.
