Last Time: Our heroes from both series went through the portal and headed into the Dark Ocean. The DigiDestined went in first and they met up with the three evil Digimon…and their master, Myotismon.
Keeping Secrets: Part 9
The tension was so thick, you could cut it with a knife. Davis couldn't believe what he was seeing. But the villainous Myotismon was standing before them all…along with these three evil Digimon. And Davis couldn't get passed one obvious detail.
"But we wiped you out!" Davis shouted.
"I remember you," Myotismon chuckled. "The impulsive one. The one who's even STUPIDER than he looks! You'd have to be to think that you could destroy me for good."
"Then HOW?!" Gatomon demanded.
"You'd like an explanation, wouldn't you?" Myotismon smirked. "One of those 'the villain reveals his master plan before destroying the heroes' bit, huh? Well I'm not the kind of guy to break tradition. And I wouldn't want you all to meet your doom without knowing the answer to the burning question: Just how DID the great Myotismon manage to cheat death THIS time?
"That's where my minions over there come in. Sinestromon, Savagemon, and Psychomon. All ultimate level Digimon…and my best work this side of Arukenimon and Mummymon."
"You CREATED them?" TK asked.
"That explains why I've never heard of them before!" Veemon piped up.
"You see, I had a backup plan in case my original plan failed," Myotismon continued. "In the unlikely even that I was defeated, I would gather bits of my digital data onto these three, who would be lying in wait where they wouldn't be seen. Once I was beaten by Imperialdramon, I managed to shift my data to Sinestromon, Savagemon, and Psychomon before he could deliver the final blow. But there was not enough data salvaged for me to reconfigure myself.
"That's the other reason I created these three. They were sent out to find a power source that would give me enough power to reconfigure myself. And they DID find a power source. All it took…was the power of 53 cards. The power of those cards…was enough for me to resurrect myself as Myotismon."
"You think that scares us?" Kari said boldly. "We've beaten you in this form before, Myotismon! And we can do it again! Right, Gatomon?"
Gatomon took another step forward. "It'll be my pleasure to destroy you FOR GOOD, Myotismon!"
**Gatomon…Digivolve to…Angewomon!**
"You won't win, Myotismon!" TK added. "Your brand evil and darkness can NEVER win!"
Patamon flew forward and landed by Angewomon. "We won't LET you win!"
**Patamon…Digivolve to…Angemon!**
"You should have known when to stay down!" Davis shouted. "If you think we're gonna let you go back to terrorizing the world, then you've got another thing coming!"
Veemon took a step forward. "You'll have to get passed us first!"
**Veemon…Digivolve to…ExVeemon!**
The three Digimon had now Digivolved. The mighty Angewomon, Angemon, and ExVeemon all stood side-by-side and got ready to take on Myotismon. But it didn't go quite as planned, because the other three evil Digimon stood side-by-side in front of their master.
Before a battle could break out, however, more figures began to emerge from the portal. Davis turned around to see Eriol, Madison, Yue, Ruby Moon, Spinner, and Kero all coming through.
"We've arrived just in time for a party," Ruby Moon chuckled.
"It looks like we're needed here," Yue added.
"Well…can't do much good looking like this," Kero thought.
With that, a large set of white wings engulfed the stuffed animal. When the wings spread, the stuffed animal had turned into a much-larger armored yellow lion creature.
"Nice of you to come out, Keroberos," Spinner nodded. "I suppose I should also reveal MY true form."
Having said that, another set of wings spread out and covered Spinner. When the wings opened up, the stuffed animal had turned into a fearsome black panther-like creature. Davis' spirits were raised even further now. ExVeemon, Angewomon, and Angemon weren't going into this battle alone.
But Myotismon had his sights set elsewhere. "It's Yue! Get him!"
The three evil Digimon suddenly ran AROUND ExVeemon, Angewomon, and Angemon and immediately headed towards Yue.
"Hey, you can't just ignore us!" ExVeemon said indignantly.
Angewomon immediately flew over to head them off. "Celestial Arrow!"
The Celestial Arrow attack landed on the ground, cutting the evil ones off. That gave time for Angemon and ExVeemon to run up to them for another face-off.
"What's the idea of just ignoring us like that?" ExVeemon demanded.
"Take care of those meddlers first!" Myotismon shouted. "I shall take Yue myself!"
Hearing that, Yue flew over towards Myotismon. "So…you wish to do battle with me."
The yellow lion, Keroberos, tried to protest. "Yue, what are you…?"
"Find the Mistress!" Yue cut him off. "You and Spinner Sun must find Sakura and Tori. I shall handle this evil one."
Keroberos hesitated, but then nodded towards the black cat-like guardian known as Spinner Sun. The two guardians headed off while Ruby Moon headed over to Yue's side.
"Go with them, Ruby Moon," Yue ordered.
"You can't be serious," Ruby Moon argued. "You think I'd leave you alone with this Dracula wannabe over here?"
"They may need your help," Yue persisted. "Now leave me be! Do it for Tori!"
Ruby Moon also hesitated, but finally understood. She flew off, trying to catch up to Keroberos and Spinner Sun. And that left Yue alone to face off against Myotismon. Davis wanted to help, but ExVeemon looked like he was about to have his hands full.
That fight looked like it would be one-on-one.
Yue's demeanor hadn't changed at all throughout this entire exchange. He still kept that same emotionless look on his face. The look of a warrior, ready to fight.
"I sense you want something from me," Yue said coldly.
"The power of the girl's brother resides within you!" Myotismon bellowed. "And once I have it, I will have enough power to take over BOTH worlds!"
"You want the power that was given to me?" Yue asked. "I cannot let you have it. If you want it, you'll have to defeat me."
"Then I shall do just that! Grisly Wing!"
Myotismon opened his cape to unleash a swarm of bats. The bats all headed for Yue, but they didn't get very close. Yue shot out a series of ice crystals at the bats, sending them scattering away. Then he aimed the crystals at Myotismon. But the crystals only shattered on his body without leaving a scratch.
"Is that the best you can do?" Myotismon mocked. "Crimson Lightning!"
Yue saw a whip of red light and electricity heading his way. The guardian put up his shield barrier just before the whip made contact. Once again, it was a stalemate. And it appeared that Myotismon was about to go back to square one again.
"Grisly Wing!"
More bats came flying towards Yue, so the guardian defended himself just as he did before. But as the bats flew away from his ice attacks, Myotismon struck again.
"Nightmare Claw!"
Yue didn't know what hit him, but SOMETHING hit him HARD. The guardian fell to the ground and immediately felt woozy…as if he were about to lose consciousness.
"Defeating you was easy enough," he heard Myotismon say. "Now…with your power…I shall RULE!"
Sakura didn't see where everyone went. All she knew was that she was still down on the ground…and Tori was trying to inch his way towards her.
"I don't know how, Sakura…but I'm gonna get us out of here."
But it wouldn't be easy. Both Sakura and Tori were still stuck and barely able to move. And Sakura, herself, was still feeling weak. Without the power of the cards…she felt helpless. But that's when she saw something that raised her spirits.
"Sakura!"
She didn't know how he got there…but Sakura was glad to see him, nonetheless. Keroberos was coming to her rescue, along with Spinner Sun and Ruby Moon. The three guardians landed beside Sakura and saw the situation she was in. Ruby Moon bent down and used all her strength to break Sakura free. Sakura no longer had the pressure on her arms…but still didn't feel 100% by any stretch of the imagination.
"How did you know we were here?" Tori asked.
"We have some new friends," Ruby Moon answered, as she broke Tori free. "Are you all right?"
"He looks ok," Spinner Sun said. "But Sakura looks like she needs help."
"Those things drained the cards of their power and sent them to that…vampire guy. I've never seen her like this!"
"Sakura and the cards are linked," Keroberos explained. "If the cards have been drained of all their power then we're lucky that Sakura has ANY strength whatsoever. But it won't last long. We have to get the power back to the cards!"
"This guy doesn't look like he plays around," Tori said ominously. "I don't think he'll give up that power without a fight."
"We're not exactly giving him a choice," Ruby Moon shot back. "I think we can all take him. Right now Yue should be warming him up for us."
"Yue's HERE?" Tori asked wide-eyed. "Where is he?"
"He's fighting that Myotismon thing," Spinner Sun answered. "We should help him."
"Then what are we waiting for?" Keroberos exclaimed. "Let's go!"
Sakura tried to get to her feet on her own, but it was no use. Luckily, she had a big brother there to pick her up. Tori draped Sakura over his shoulder and started walking off while the guardians led the way.
But by the time they reached their destination, Sakura had lost consciousness again.
Impmon watched as those humans were saved by those…things. They obviously weren't Digimon. Impmon was fed up with all these unwanted visitors and he decided it was time to do something about it.
Using every ounce of strength in his little body, Impmon pulled his right arm out of the sand. Then he pulled the rest of his body out until he was back on his feet again.
Impmon had given all of them a chance. They had their chance to just leave him be, but they didn't listen. Instead, they only mocked him. And although technically they were away from his cave, Impmon wasn't going to let them escape that easily. He was tired of being nice and now he would make them pay. And he knew the one way to make them ALL pay. Impmon got an evil smirk on his face, because he knew what time it was.
It was time for him to Digivolve.
The battle had begun and thus far it had been a very even three-on-three match. These three evil Digimon, all at ultimate level, weren't going down without a fight. But Davis wasn't backing down either, nor were any of his friends.
Angewomon struck again. "Celestial Arrow!"
The Celestial Arrow attack narrowly missed Sinestromon and now the cloaked being was ready to retaliate.
"Sinister Ice Rings!"
The Sinister Ice Rings wrapped around Angewomon and ExVeemon, leaving them both tied up. Both Digimon were stuck. The only one left free was Angemon. And it was down to a three-on-one.
"Sinestromon!" Myotismon called out from the distance. "Get over here!"
Sinestromon signaled to his two colleagues to finish the job as he ran over to join Myotismon. Savagemon and Psychomon closed in on Angemon.
Kari started to clutch her head. "T-The darkness…I can feel it."
Davis immediately rushed over to her side. "Kari! Don't give up!"
With the whole Dark Ocean surrounding her, this must have been a horrible experience for Kari. Davis and TK both held one of Kari's hands and tried to calm her. Davis then looked over at TK, who only grew more determined as he eyed the evil Digimon. It didn't look like he was fazed at all by the situation facing Angemon.
"I know you can do this, Angemon," TK said softly. "Don't give up! I know you can beat them!" Then he turned to Kari. "And we'll survive this. I know we will."
It was at that moment that something TK was keeping with him began to glow. TK reached in and took it out. It was his crest. The Crest of Hope was reacting. And with that…
**Angemon…Digivolve to…MagnaAngemon!**
Davis looked on in amazement as Angemon Digivolved into his ultimate form. He Digivolved into the heroic MagnaAngemon. With his mighty sword in his hand, Davis now knew that the odds had just shifted in favor of the DigiDestined.
"Come on, MagnaAngemon!" TK cheered. "You know what to do!"
MagnaAngemon went on to unleash his strongest attack. "Gate of Destiny!"
MagnaAngemon sliced his sword into the air, creating a void. TK told Davis about this once. It was the same void that entrapped evils like Piedmon. But the other two evil Digimon weren't going in easily. They clutched the ground and tried to hold their place on the ground.
"We won't be taken in!" Savagemon grunted.
"We ain't going down like this!" Psychomon added.
"HEY!" a third voice shouted.
Davis looked over to see…another Digimon. It was a huge purple Digimon covered in what looked like black leather from head to toe to tail. He looked like a deranged biker with a head of purple and white. And in his hands…were a pair of shotguns.
"I warned you guys to get out!" the third one said. "But ya just wouldn't listen!"
"Uh…you look familiar," Savagemon muttered.
Psychomon gulped. "You related to that little pipsqueak we buried?"
"I AM that little pipsqueak! Or at least I WAS. Now I'm…Beelzebumon! And it's the last name you losers will ever hear. Double Impact!"
The huge Digimon known as Beelzebumon opened fire and Savagemon and Psychomon lost their grips on the ground. The went flying into the vortex opened up by MagnaAngemon. As soon as the two evil Digimon were in, the vortex closed. Just as he had beaten Piedmon in the past, MagnaAngemon had now beaten Savagemon and Psychomon. Only this time…he had an assist.
MagnaAngemon tried to approach this Digimon, but Beelzebumon only pointed his guns at him. Helpful or not, this Digimon was certainly VERY hostile.
"You're lucky I don't waste you, too. Angels make me SICK! But I got another joker to deal with! So while I deal with him, maybe YOU should think about vamoosing!"
TK ran over to MagnaAngemon and pointed over at Angewomon and ExVeemon. "Free them first! We still have to deal with Myotismon!"
Suddenly, Madison and Eriol both rushed over and tugged on Davis' shoulder. They pointed out into the distance.
Davis looked over to see that Myotismon had already finished his battle with Yue. And Yue looked to be down and out. Time was short, so they all urged MagnaAngemon to free Angewomon and ExVeemon. But help was also arriving.
The guardians were returning.
Myotismon waited impatiently as Sinestromon prepared to use his Power Shift attack to transfer Yue's power to him. He already had the magic power of the girl and her cards flowing within him, but he needed more. And for that, he needed the power of her brother…which resided in this guardian.
Finally, Sinestromon raised his arms to begin the transfer, but he didn't make it in time. A huge flame was tossed at him and Sinestromon fell over. Myotismon looked over to see that Yue's friends had arrived…along with the girl and her brother.
"Now you weren't planning to do anything to Yue, were you?" the yellow lion known as Keroberos demanded. "Because you'll have to get through all of us first!"
"I'm getting sick of all these delays!" Myotismon growled. "Crimson Lightning!"
Myotismon attempted to use his Crimson Lightning attack, but his aim was off. He didn't end up hitting anybody. And matters only got worse as he saw three other Digimon headed his way. They were the Digimon of the DigiDestined.
Angewomon aimed her arrow. "Just…like…last time………Celestial Arrow!"
The Celestial Arrow was heading straight for Myotismon and looked to pierce his heart, just as he had been defeated once before. But it didn't happen, because Sinestromon jumped in and took the blow. The blow was a brutal one, however, as the evil Digimon fell to the ground and looked to fading fast.
"NO!" Myotismon shouted. He knew that if Sinestromon perished, there would be no one to transfer Yue's power to him.
Sinestromon breathed heavily. "I have been beaten! By my defeat shall not go in vain! I shall use what I have left…to ensure my master's victory!"
With that, Sinestromon let out a loud scream as his body pixilated. But the bits of digital data remains…started floating towards Myotismon. Myotismon then realized what was happening. Sinestromon was using his own power to strengthen Myotismon. And it was working…because Myotismon was beginning to Digivolve.
Everyone present gasped as Myotismon grew more powerful…and was restored into a familiar form.
He was now…VenomMyotismon.
Next Time: It's not exactly what he had in mind, but now Myotismon has Digivolved into VenomMyotismon. The Digimon and the guardians will have to bring everything they have to defeat this villain. So come back next time for the final battle! AND…is there one more side effect to this evil villain holding the power of the Sakura Cards?
