Chapter 7: The Enemy Revealed

Will this separation continue the same as last time? Will the two L
crests overcome the two D crests? Will T.K and Patamon be able to
survive being in the middle of it all?

"K.. Kari?" T.K said weakly. The little girl was standing over him, looking
rather concerned. "T.K! Your awake!" Little Patamon said. T.K managed to
force a grin. He felt like his body was going to snap at any moment. "Are you
hurt anywhere?" Kari asked. "I could name about 79 different places in my
body that are aching, and another 20 I couldn't name." T.K replied. "And Kari?
Where's my hat?" He asked. "Your hat? It got blown up by MetalGigadramon."
Kari answered. T.K sniffed. "I liked that hat." He said sadly. "If you don't
mind my asking, exactly what is a hat?" Gatomon questioned. "Your head has
been looking kind of funny since you landed T.K. Maybe you hit it?" Patamon
said.

"A hat is a thing you wear on your head to keep out the sun." Kari
explained. Both Gatomon and Patamon now realized the problem with
T.K's head. "So does your hat do anything special or is it just for
good looks?" Patamon asked, jumping up on T.K, who noticed he was
still lying down. "Hey Patamon, careful, that hurt. But the only thing
that my hat did that was special was being green, and hiding my hair."
T.K replied. Everyone laughed.

T.K attempted to sit up for the 5th time, this time succeeding. "Don't
worry T.K, you can always get another hat when we get out of the
digiworld. But this time don't get a green one, okay?" Kari said,
helping T.K prop himself up against a tree. "So, exactly where are
we?" T.K asked, surveying his surroundings. "I think we are near the
base of Mt. Digital." Kari said, her eyes wandering to the giant
statue of Machinedramon. The very sight made her shudder.


"HA! Now you four are separated from the group you shall be easy to
defeat." A voice said. The owner came in to view, a dark haired boy
of about 12 years of age. "Cerin." Kari said simply. T.K immediately
struggled to his feet, almost yelling in pain, but looking ready to
throttle the other boy. "Let us take care of this T.K." Patamon
said. MetalGigadramon came into view behind Cerin, demolishing trees
as he flew. "Gatomon, digivolve too --- Angewomon!" Angewomon said as
she flew up into the trees. "Celestial Arrow!" She shouted.
MetalGigadramon stepped in front of Cerin to block the attack. "You
fools can't defeat me that easily." He snapped. "I'd love to hang
around, but i have things to do and places to take over." Cerin said
before flying off with his jets.

"Patamon, you better digivolve." T.K said. Patamon nodded. "Patamon, digivolve
too ---- Angemon!" Angemon flew up to aid Angewomon. "Go angels!" both T.K and
Kari shouted together. "Hand of Fate!" The beam from the giant angel's hand
was merely brushed away. "Genetic Bla---" MetalGigadramon was cut off as a
white beam hit him. "Oh no you don't!" Tristan said as Celidramon and him flew
down to aid the angels. "Everyone fire at the same time!" Angemon said.
"Hand of Fate!" "Celestial Arrow!" "Holy Breath!" All the attacks knocked
MetalGigadramon down. "Angemon, digivolve again!" Tristan ordered. The angel
nodded.

"Angemon, digivolve too ---- MagnaAngemon!" The newly digivolved angel walked
over to the lying down body of the giant machine dinosaur creature. "Your days
of evil are over! Gate of Destiny!" MagnaAngemon swung his sword in a circle,
creating a dimensional gate. "Noooooo...." MetalGigadramon screamed as he was
sucked in to the gate.

"How come Tristan always seems to be saving us?" Kari asked to no-one in
particular.

Cerin hissed angrily. How come my brother has to interfere every time! He
thought to himself. He looked down from the air, surveying the giant jungle.
Ah well. I'll soon be in the observatory, Cerin thought. He came up level
with one of the giant cannons and flew inside, landing and walking in to the
lab. He walked over to his computer desk and sat down. Pressing a button, he
relaxed back into the chair. "This is Merla, Cerin. What is it?" The girl
asked. "MetalGigadramon has been defeated. My damnable brother interfered with
the plan." Cerin replied. "Has ImperialDevimon been summoned yet?" He asked.

"I-Devimon has come. He has agreed to aid us. Shall I send him to the three
little children now?" Merla asked. Cerin nodded his approval and switched off
the monitor. Now is the time for T.K and Kari to die... and with them all my
problems! He laughed manically.

"I wish we could fly up this mountain." Tristan complained, wiping his
forehead. "Sorry, us digimon don't have enough energy to digivolve."
Patamon said. Tristan sighed. How had he gotten himself into this? He
thought. "I say we rest for the night. In the morning we can continue the
hike." Tristan suggested. Everyone yawned their approval and took the sleeping
bags from their backpacks. Tristan set up his tent on the flattest part of the
mountain ground.

"I'll take first watch this time. You two always get to do the boring
work." Kari said. T.K and Tristan and their digimon appeared unable to
be more grateful as they lay down to sleep inside the tent. "Good
night everyone. Don't let the evil digimon bite." T.K said as he dozed
off. Kari sighed and sat down outside the tent to ponder. Why was she
doing this, anyway? Kari thought, fiddling with her warm, bright
crest. She knew the answer to that already, but she thought of it
anyway.

It was very simple. The other children needed her. Kari sighed and
stood up. She looked up to see a star flying around in circles. Her
mouth opened involuntarily. "That could only mean one
thing... trouble." Kari said. "Kari?" A concerned voice asked from
behind her. The child turned around to find T.K standing in the
entrance of the tent. Kari mentally scolded herself, finding she had
forgotten her crest link with T.K. "Star trouble. We better hurry."
she explained to the small child. T.K nodded and rushed inside the
tent to wake everyone else up.


"Not again!" Tristan shouted. "Looks like it." Wyvermon replied. "We
need to be ready. Everyone digivolve!" T.K ordered. "Patamon, warp
digivolve too, Angemon, MagnaAngemon." "Gatomon, digivolve too -----
Angewomon." "Wyvermon, warp digivolve too, Dragomon, MagnaDragomon."
The three Ultimate level digimon flew up into the sky with their human
partners on them. "He he he... trying to run away from my new pet are
whey?" Their escape was blocked by Machinedramon and Cerin. "The other
way!" Kari shouted. "Sorry, this road is blocked." A voice said from
behind them.

Everyone turned around to see a orb of blackness from which emerged a
black Magnadramon and Merla. "It appears it has come down to this.
Everyone digivolve to Mega!" Tristan shouted. "Angewomon, digivolve
too ---- Magnadramon!" "MagnaAngemon, digivolve too ---- Seraphimon!"
"MagnaDragomon, digiv----" "Giga Cannon!" Machinedramon shouted,
firing a bullet to cut MagnaDragomon's digivolution.

"Oh no you don't, I'm not going to risk you getting Azulongmon."
Cerin said from his perch on top of Machinedramon. "What right
do you think you have to take this world?" Kari asked the two evil
teenagers in front of the group. "Kari! Catch!" Tristan said as he
threw his crest to Kari. Kari had a puzzled look on her face as she
caught it. "T.K! Throw your crest to Kari!" Tristan instructed as he
and MagnaDragomon flew up higher above the mountain path.

T.K did as he was told and threw the crest towards Kari. It glowed
very bright as it entered Kari's hands. "Dark Flame!" VenomMagnadramon
shouted, showering Magnadramon with black ash and fire. Magnadramon
flew up out of the cloud of blackness and started circling
Seraphimon. "Heaven's Blast!" The two of them shouted, going side by
side. They both unleashed a bolt of white. The two bolts joined
together to form one bolt, knocking Cerin and Machinedramon out of the
sky and making them land. "Where is that damned ImperialDevimon
Merla!?" Cerin shouted. "Should be here any minute." Merla answered.

"Freezing Annihilation!" MagnaDragomon's breath was blocked by
VenomMagnadramon. "Time for Plan B!" Cerin shouted to Merla, who
nodded. They both held out their crests, firing beams of black at the
good digimon. For every beam that touched them, they screamed out in
pain. "Two can play at that game. Kari! Purity time!" Tristan shouted
above the noise of the still-raging battle. Kari brought all the
crests together to form one, shining, golden crest. A defeated Gatomon
and Angemon flew down from the sky, while MagnaDragomon desperately
tried to hold the two Megas. T.K and Kari fell to the ground with Tristan.

"Angemon! Gatomon! DNA digivolve!" Tristan instructed. T.K, Kari and
their digimon looked quizzical at this. "Just do it!" Tristan said.
"Angemon!" "Gatomon!" "DNA digivolve too ---- Saintmon!" After the
digivolving was finished, a jet-pack equipped holy knight stood in
front of them. It had no armour, but wore silver robes and a sword belt
attached to it. "Wow!" T.K and Kari both said. "Hope's Blade!"
Saintmon brought it's blade down to slice into the side of
VenomMagnadramon. "Time to fly!" Cerin shouted at Merla. The two evil
children took off into the distance. Tristan managed to catch Wyvermon
as he plummeted from the sky. "Darn, he got away." Tristan said.
