Compassionate Power: Part 6
A/N: Ano... Sorry it's taken me so long to get Part 6 out... High School is tough, bleh. Anyway, here's Part 6, THE FINALE, enjoy! Oh yes, there is some stronger language in this one. But oh well, what the fork are you doing reading fanfics in the first place if you can't even stomach some swearing? Ok, now, on to the fic! 3, 2, 1, GO!
Jijimon's ears pricked up. He turned, looking around slowly. "Hmm... Oh well. Thiefmon'll take care of anything. Best go check on the young ones t'see how they're doin'." He walked inside.
"Yayayayayayay!" Saiai grinned widely. "Everyone's ok!"
"Hehe." Hikari giggled. "Thanks for saving us, Saiai."
"I helped too!" Pixidramon flew in place happily.
Jijimon walked in. "Hmm, so everyone's alright, then?"
"Hai, Jiji-sama!" Miyako bowed slightly.
"Good, good. So, what's the plan of action?"
"Uh..." Saiai scratched his head. "I dunno. That's more Iori's field."
"Hey!" Daisuke yelled. "I'M the leader!"
"Aaaaaand...?" V-mon grinned.
"...Oh, whatever."
Iori thought for a second. "Hmmm... we have to stop ChaosDramon before he attacks any other Digimon. That's the important part. This time, we should attack head on before he gets the chance to create more minions."
"Hmm... sounds good," Takeru agreed. "I'm sure Pixidramon and Thiefmon will be happy to help too."
Jijimon nodded. "Ah, right. I've got some info for you that will help. The armour-version of your Digimon will protect them from the chaotic effect caused by ChaosDramon's attacks. I'd use them if you can." Jijimon thought for another second. "Oh yes, you'll need to get Tommon back too. I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out."
"Oh yeah..." Tailmon sighed.
Daisuke jumped into the air. "Alright! Let's do this!"
V-mon jumped up too. "Yeah! ...But where do we go?"
"Uh... I dunno." Everyone except Daisuke facefaulted.
BOOM! A large explosion shook the hut. "What the-?!" Everyone ran/flew outside. Miyako thought while she was running. *Why are there always explosions when we don't know what to do next?*
"Uhhn!" Thiefmon got knocked back forcefully. Assassinmon tossed another exploding star. He jumped it and retaliated. "Thief's knife!" It went right through the after-image Assassinmon had left. He landed and picked up his knife, looking around. "Where are you, coward? Show yourself!"
"Right here..." Assassinmon stabbed Thiefmon in the back with his dagger. He fell, gasping for air. "...B-bastard..."
"H-hey!" The Digidestined ran up. Iori yelled again. "What do you think you're doing!? Who are you?!"
Assassinmon turned slowly. "Hmmph... You are the ones... that Chaos-sama wished for me to kill...?" Something seemed to glint inside the skull. "Very well then..." He quickly drew a dagger from his cloak and threw it at Jijimon. "Die, old fool...!"
Thunk! The dagger embedded itself in a tree behind Jijimon. "Huh?" Daisuke scratched his head. "Did it go right through him?"
"Baka..." Thiefmon slowly climbed to his feet. "He deflected it with his staff..."
"Wow, Cool..."
Jijimon rested his staff again. "Hmm. Pixidramon, please heal Thiefmon, won't you?"
"Hai!" The kawaii dragon flew over and pulled Thiefmon away from the battle.
"So, you have some skill..." Assassinmon took up a battle position. "Then, we shall..."
"Hai, indeed..." Jijimon nodded and looked at the Digidestined.
"Oh, I get it!" Takeru and the others moved to the side and gave Jijimon some room.
"Alright... prepare yourself..." Assassinmon drew a long dagger from his cloak and charged, attacking swiftly. Jijimon parried with his staff and pushed him away. Assassinmon took another dagger from his cloak and began striking with both at once. Jijimon still managed to parry and kept trying to push him off balance.
"Wow, exciting..." Hikari watched intently.
Takeru nodded. "They're really good at this!"
Miyako walked over. "I made popcorn!"
Hawkmon, Armadimon, Patamon, and V-mon all jumped up. "I want some!" "Me too!" "C'mon, share!"
Assassinmon jumped back for a second. "Time to finish this... Assassin Barrage!" He drew 6 knives at once and threw them. Jijimon blocked all but the last perfectly, which glanced off and headed straight toward Saiai. Before he had time to react, it hit the pendant Jijimon had given him, emitting a bell-like tone.
...
Inside the darkness, Tommon's eyes snapped open. "What...?" He looked around. He could still feel the bats, but it didn't seem to matter. "There's light ahead!" He clawed at the bats. "Go away! I'll kill ya all if ya don't leave me alone! Cat's Eye Flash!" The attack's light drove the bats away. Tommon started flying towards the light in the distance, fighting off any remaining bats. "Holdon, guys, I'm coming!"
Assassinmon suddenly started burning with dark flames. "Agh... The light... So... powerful... Arrrgh!!" He suddenly exploded in a flash of light.
Saiai looked down at his pendant, undamaged from the knife. "Well, I didn't expect that to happen."
Miyako pointed. "Look! Something's still there!"
"What?"
Tommon was thrown out of the smoke and smacked right into a tree. "...Ow..."
Saiai jumped up. "Tommon!! You're back!!"
Tommon slid down the tree. "That's nice... can someone get me some headache medicine...?"
Tailmon looked at him. *Tommon...* She shook her head. "You jerk! Why'd you attack us?!"
Tommon jumped up and turned around. "Hey! It wasn't my fault! I was under ChaosDramon's control!"
"Oh, THAT'S an excuse..."
Takeru sweatdropped. "Well, looks like he's back to normal... so now all we have to do is take on ChaosDramon!"
Jijimon sat down. "Hoo. I'm getting too old for this. I think I'll head back with Thiefmon."
Iori bowed. "Ok, Jiji-sama. We'll take care of things here."
Daisuke once again tried to take the leadership position. "Let's go, then!"
"But where do we go?" Hikari asked.
"..."
"You STILL don't know, do you?"
"Shut up!"
"Don't worry, I can take us there!" Tommon jumped up. "Let's go!"
"Alright!" The Digidestined and Digimon followed, Daisuke trailing behind. *I'M supposed to be the leader...*
"Alright... Break time, everyone!" Daisuke sat down on a rock and stretched. "We don't want to exhaust ourselves before a battle."
"We've only been walking a half hour, Daisuke." Iori sweatdropped.
"Actually, we haven't eaten since we got cursed, so it might be a good idea to stop." Miyako sat down and started searching through her bag.
"Yay! Food!" Saiai sat down abruptly. "I'm STARVING."
Tommon sat down too. "Me too. Being temporarily evil builds up your appetite."
Everyone else sat down. Miyako pulled some rice crackers out of her bag and handed a package to everyone.
"*munch munch* Rice crackers are good." Daisuke ate one in one bite.
"*munch* Yup." Ken ate his slowly.
"Are they really made of rice?" Saiai broke his in half, then ate it.
"I dunno, but they look like rice balls."
"Hmm..."
"Well, let's get on with the storyline. Patamon, can you fly up and see if you can see anything?"
"Sure, TK." Patamon flew up above the treetops. "I don't see anything... oh wait, there he is." He then dropped out of the sky just before a black flame blasted the treetops. ChaosDramon flew past and landed a short distance away.
"Well, time to fight!" Daisuke finished his crackers and stood up. "Let's do this!"
"Hai!" Saiai jumped up too.
"We can't let him mutate more Digimon." Iori stood up.
"It's just wrong!" Hikari put away her crackers and stood up.
"..." Ken stood up silently.
"With Jijimon's advice, how can we lose?" Miyako packed up the rest of the crackers.
"Not to mention Pixidramon!" Takeru readied his D-3.
"Hai!"
ChaosDramon strode over. "Well said, all. But we shall see."
"V-mon, armour digivolve to... FlameDramon, the fire of courage!"
"Armadimon, armour digivolve to... Digmon, the drill of wisdom!"
"Hawkmon, armour digivolve to... Shurimon, the samurai of sincerity!"
"Patamon, armour digivolve to... Pegasusmon, flying hope!"
"Tailmon, armour digivolve to... Nefertimon, the angel of light!"
"Wormmon, digivolve to... Stingmon!"
"Tommon, digivolve to... Igamon!"
"Flames of Chaos!" ChaosDramon launched black fireballs at everyone. The armour absorbed the attack, except for Stingmon and Igamon, who dodged. "Hmmph. You think a little armour will stop me?"
"Gold Rush!"
"Double Stars!"
"Fire Rocket!"
ChaosDramon knocked away the attacks with his chain arm. "Fools. Your attacks are too weak in armour form to damage me!"
"Iga Style Shuriken Throw!"
"Lightning Strike!"
ChaosDramon blocked Stingmon's attack, but took damage from Igamon's attack. "Grrr. As I thought, the little one is the only one who could damage me." He slashed at him with his axe arm, which he dodged narrowly. "But he can't keep this up forever!"
"Lightning Strike!" Stingmon stabbed ChaosDramon from behind with the attack.
"So, you think you can fight me too?" ChaosDramon's dragon head suddenly whipped around and blasted Stingmon with Chaos Flames. He fell.
"Stingmon!" Ken ran to him.
"Baka! You haven't even begun to see my real power!"
"Golden Noose!"
Nefertimon and Pegasusmon wrapped ChaosDramon with their attack. "Pixidramon! Attack now!"
"Oh, ok. Dragon Spear!" Pixidramon threw his spear at the base of ChaosDramon's dragon head.
"Raaaargh!!" ChaosDramon's head whipped around in fury.
"Iga Style Sword Slash!" Igamon jumped into the air and slashed with his sword, cutting ChaosDramon's head off at the base.
"Uhhn... A double tech. Impressive..."
Daisuke jumped into the air. "Yes! We beat it!"
"Not quite." ChaosDramon's head suddenly flew into the air and implanted itself back into its body.
"...NANI?!?!" Daisuke's jaw dropped.
"B-but Jijimon said if we cut off the Parasimon part, then Dronimon would go back to normal!" Miyako fell to her knees.
"Heheh. I've taken total control of Dronimon by now. I'm afraid all you did with that last attack was make me MAD!" ChaosDramon's body started to give off a dark aura.
Takeru stared in silence. "I realize this is totally out of character, but I'm going to say it anyway: Oh SHIT!"
"SHADOW DRAGON FLARE!" ChaosDramon opened its mouth and shot a giant beam of dark light, which hit all the Digimon.
"Iie! Tommon, Tailmon! Everyone!" Saiai shrunk back from the attack.
Ken stared in fear. "What kind of monster is this thing...?!"
ChaosDramon finished the attack. "Baka. Prepare to taste the void!" The mouth in the center of its body opened and began sucking everything in.
The Digimon landed, all seriously hurt. Iori yelled, "Quick, everyone! Grab them before they're sucked in!" The Digidestined ran and began dragging them towards cover.
"I'll get Pixidramon too!" Miyako tried to pull both Digimon towards cover, but lost her grip and started being sucked in toward the void. "Iie! Help!"
"Miyako!" Saiai yelled from cover.
*HALT!!!*
ChaosDramon suddenly roared as if in pain, and the void's pull weakened. Saiai ran to Miyako. "Are you ok?"
"H-hai..." Saiai helped her pull Pixidramon and Shurimon to safety.
ChaosDramon shook its head and looked around. "What was that...? I'll destroy whoever did this!" The void's pull suddenly got many times stronger.
"We can't just keep sitting here! These trees can't hold out much longer!" Ken yelled over the noise. "We need a plan!"
Miyako called back. "I know, but what?!" Saiai looked down at Pixidramon. *Wait, the pendants... maybe the pendants could do something!* He pulled the pendant from around his neck and touched it to Pixidramon's. A great light suddenly shone from both of them, and the void was stopped. In place of the two pendants was a small rectangular object with the symbol of Compassion on it.
"The crest of Compassion?" Saiai touched it. Igamon's eyes suddenly opened.
"Igamon, digivolve to...!!"
Igamon grew and took on a more humanoid form. A scarlet karate gi covered his body. His face was covered with a more complex mask than before, covering his mouth as well. Several stands of red cloth hung from his clothing. In his hand appeared a katana, with several arcane symbols carved into it. His eyes shone with confidence as he shouted his name.
"Samuraimon!!"
Saiai stared in half-awe, not noticing that the crest had reverted back into the two pendants. "Sugoi desu..."
Samuraimon strode towards ChaosDramon. "You! For crimes against the digital world, I, Samuraimon, do pass judgment! You must perish!"
ChaosDramon roared in response.
"Ki Cutter!" Samuraimon concentrated, and launched a blue beam from his blade.
ChaosDramon charged forward, ignoring the damage from the attack. "DIE!!" It swiped with its chain arm and axe arm at once, which Samuraimon dodged.
"Hmm. He's gone berserk. I can't destroy him while he's like this." Samuraimon continued to dodge the wild attacks from ChaosDramon. "Then I have just the plan!" He leaped back and stuck his sword in the ground. "Mystic Blade!" He leaped back again as a large fissure appeared in the earth. ChaosDramon charged forward again, ignoring the fact that there was a large fissure right in front of him.
"RAAAARGH!!!" ChaosDramon fell screaming into the pit.
"Now to seal him before he tries to fly out. Mystic Blade!" Samuraimon stuck his sword into the ground again. The fissure closed up, trapping ChaosDramon underground.
"Wow." Daisuke and the others emerged from their cover. "Saiai, your Digimon is cool! He beat ChaosDramon!"
Samuraimon suddenly yelled. "He's not totally gone yet! He could still escape! Quick, Saiai, give me the pendants! Hurry!"
"Um, ok." Saiai took the pendant from Pixidramon, causing him to revert back to Thundramon. "Here."
"Ok, now where's a boulder? Ah, here!" He pulled a large rock out of the ground and put it on the spot where the fissure used to be. "Ok, now I just need to tie the shrine rope around it." He pulled some rope out of his Gi and started tying it around the rock.
"Oh, I get it now!" Iori snapped his fingers. "He's sealing the dragon underground using a holy stone!"
"So Samuraimon's an expert at sealing evil Digimon?" Hikari asked.
Ken nodded. "Hai..."
Samuraimon finished tying the rock with rope and hung the pendants off of it. "Ok, just one last thing to do." He shot a beam of light at the rock, making a sealing symbol appear on it. He then reverted back to Tommon.
"Hey, do you realize what we've done? We just beat ChaosDramon! We're heroes again!" Daisuke grinned widely.
"Hey, yeah!" Miyako jumped into the air. "We did it!"
The Digimon started waking up. "Uhhn. What happened?" V-mon rubbed his head.
Tommon grinned and gave a peace sign. "We won!"
Armadimon sighed. "And we missed all the action..."
Hawkmon sighed too. "Great..."
Thundramon looked down. "Hey! Why am I Thundramon again?!"
Wormmon sweatdropped. "Well, at least we're still alive..."
Patamon jumped around. "Yeah, we should be happy!"
Tailmon tackled Tommon. "Tommon! You did it!" She then punched him into a tree. "How DARE you hog all the glory like that! You jerk!"
Tommon groaned. "Geez... maybe I WON'T save you next time, how about that, huh? You are SO uncute!"
Saiai scratched his head. "Ok, enough Ranma references. Let's just go home, ok?"
"Oh my god, I forgot! We've been out here for 2 days!"
"Hmhm. Don't worry." Jijimon and Thiefmon walked into the clearing. "ChaosDramon's effect on the D-field caused time to slow down, just like it had before. It's only been about 2 hours in real time."
"My, what a convenient plot device."
"Arrgh, Takeru, do you HAVE to point out all the flaws in the plot?!"
"Geez, Gomen, Saiai!"
"Wait, does this mean I get to go home now?" Saiai looked hopefully at Jijimon.
"Hai. Just use this TV remote I found to get back."
"Thanks a lot!" Saiai took the remote, then looked around. "Um... but when can I come back?"
"Well, the gate will open when it needs to be."
"Oh... Then..." Saiai looked at the friends he had made during this trip. "I guess this is 'Sayonara' for now..." He looked down. "Ja ne, then." He pointed the remote at a tree and opened a gate.
"Wait, Saiai!" Miyako called out. Saiai looked back. "Ano?"
"...Good luck getting home."
Saiai grinned. "You too." He stepped halfway into the portal, then turned back. "See ya!" He then walked through with Tommon.
"Well, that was fun." Daisuke yawned. "But, it's time to go home."
"Yeah..." Miyako half-sighed. "Let's go."
Saiai stepped out of an alleyway in Zerorez where the gate had sent him. "Hmmph. I was hoping for someplace closer to home. Oh well... Coming, Tommon?"
"OK." Tommon followed Saiai. "So now what?"
"I guess I'll call my parents and try to explain where I've been for the past 24 hours... Where's a payphone when you need one?"
Tommon looked around, then saw something. "Look, Saiai! You're on TV!"
"Nani?" Saiai looked at the Electronic Store window, where one of the TVs on display had the News on.
"...Firefighters are still trying to control a fire started yesterday around 4:00 in the Holly Forest..."
"T-that's... that's where I live..." Saiai stared at the TV. "An hour after I left for the Digiworld..."
"Saiai? What's wrong?"
"...Fortunately, there have been no deaths, except for a family of 5 that lived in the forest... Chiki, Mune, Saiai, Ryouri, and Konchi Horisu. It is said that their house was near the center of the fire, and they most likely didn't have time to escape..."
"I-iie..." Saiai fell to his knees. "It can't be... it can't be true... my family... gone..." He started crying.
"Saiai..." Tommon looked around. "Er, you're attracting attention..."
Saiai sniffed. "You're right. I can't cry here. The feelings here are too strong. I have to go back."
"Go back where?" Saiai suddenly ran back to the alleyway. "Wait, wait for me!" Tommon chased after Saiai, as he returned to the only place where he could go without people staring at him, the only place he could run... the digital world...
Miyako dragged the garbage to the bin outside her apartment. She sighed as she dumped it in. *Back to normal life, I guess...* She went back inside. "I'm gonna go take a walk before dinner, ok?"
"Alright, but don't stay out too long."
"Kay." Miyako walked out to the park and sat down on a bench. *Saiai... when will I get to see you again?*
After a few minutes, she looked up. Sitting in a tree across from the bench was Saiai. "Saiai?"
Saiai looked down. "Konnichiwa..." He looked as if he had been crying.
"What's wrong? I thought you had gone back home."
"Well, I did, but, ah..." He stared off. "There was some trouble, and..."
"What happened?" Miyako boosted herself up.
"Um... my house was burned to the ground... and my family is missing..." Saiai sniffed. "N-nothing big, really..."
"Oh, Saiai..."
"Um... but they might still be alive... I gotta keep thinking that. I'll be ok then." Saiai sniffed again and smiled sadly. "So, um, what're you doing out here?"
"Well... Nothing, really, just..." Miyako shook her head. "Um... Saiai?"
"Yeah?"
"I know this might not be the best time for this, but... ah... I haven't thanked you for saving me again yet, so..." Miyako leaned over and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
"..." Saiai blushed intensely. "Ah, er, um, well, t-that's really..." Saiai swallowed and tried to concentrate. "I mean, um, thanks. D-does that mean you, um, like me?"
"Nani?" Miyako blushed too. "Well... hai..."
"T-that's good, 'cause, y'know, I like ya too. I mean, um, you're really kawaii and sweet and smart... h-how could I not?"
Miyako smiled. "Arigato." She leaned slightly against Saiai and looked at the sun, which was beginning to set. "So, what'll you do now?"
"Ano... I guess I can stay at Heza-chan's, since we were like siblings even back in Zerorez..."
"So, you'll stay?"
Saiai grinned. "Sure. I mean, how can I not now?"
"Itaii!"
"Shh, Dai-baka, you'll clue them in!"
Saiai pulled out his paper fan. "Excuse me." He stood up and jumped into the brush.
"AAAH!"
"Run!!"
Daisuke, Takeru, Ken, and Iori ran out from the brush. Miyako jumped down from the tree and glared at them. "I cannot BELIEVE you guys! What in the world do you think you were doing, watching us?!"
"Actually, Hikari was too." Saiai dragged Hikari from the bush. "I accidentally landed on her when I jumped."
Hikari jumped up and hugged Saiai. "Oh, Saiai! I'm so glad you're back! I missed you so much!"
"NANI?!" Daisuke looked dumbfounded.
"You mean to say Hikari liked Saiai too?!" Takeru's jaw dropped.
Ken laughed. "You owe me 1000 yen, Iori."
Iori scratched his head. "That wasn't fair..."
Miyako stomped up to Hikari. "HEY! Saiai likes me, I got him first!"
Hikari stuck out her tongue. "So? Saiai-kun can change his mind."
Saiai looked nervous. "Actually... I think Hikari would make a good match for Iori."
Iori's jaw dropped this time. "NANI?!"
Takeru stuck his tongue. "Now YOU owe me 1000 yen, Ken-kun!"
Ken grumbled. "Shimatte..."
Daisuke sat down, looking confused. "Why don't people ever tell me these things?"
As the arguments continued, far off, a boy with black hair watched. *No need to tell him about this now. He'll be fine.* He turned and entered a gate. *Farewell, Saiai Horisu... until our paths cross once again...*
* * * * * * * *
