MA: this is gonna be a while. Popcorn?
MAX: popcorn. On with the fic.
D3: FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE
CH. 6 "BROTHER OF DESTRUCTIONS"
" Why do I always get the hard jobs?" complained tentomon as he flew. He had the unfortunate task of find the most feared digimon in the digital world; BlackWargreymon. Ever thought he not a real digimon, he is the ultimate fighting machine. He has battle again the digidestined on several occasions with him dominating them. Even with the help of Wargreymon, he remained a force to be reckoned with. With the threat of the digital warlord, the destined and the d3s feel they need him as an ally.
" Well I hope they appreciate the risk I'm putting myself in. this is fucking ridicules."
Just then, a dark shadow appeared behind him.
" I heard you were looking for me."
" Uh.. No habla ingles?"
The digidestined waited at izzy's place for tentomon to report back. Tai was pacing around the room while the others sat. Sora sat by matt but watched Tai with worried eyes. Mimi played with yolei's hair while matt secretly watch. T.K. and Kari saw what was going on and whispered to each other with Davis glaring at them. The semi-silence was cut by izzy's computer beeping. Izzy got to it and punched a few keys.
" Tentomon?"
" Nope but you were almost right." A voice said as the screen cleared to show a human.
" Doc!" said Tai.
" We're happy to see you man." Said matt.
" Same here." He responded.
" So what can we do for you?" asked ken.
" No. It's what I can do for you. I have decrypted the second half of the prophecy. And I tell you, it's unbelievable!"
" Well, spill!" said an impatient Davis.
" Well it goes 'and at the place of birth for digimon, at the highest point, courage and love shall shire a hero. He shall have power over the digimon to digivolve. In the human world, he will be a warrior. In the digital world he will be a god. His power will be unrivaled. He shall be called the chosen one, the hero of heroes, and the hope of two worlds.' That's it."
" What does that mean?" asked Davis.
" Well for what I understand, the reason why this warlord want Tai and sora dead because of something they've done or will do in the future. From there this chosen one will appear. But what they will do and how it will happen, I don't know."
" Have you two done anything unusual in the past few days?" izzy asked the two of them. Tai and sora looked at each.
" Other than me eating chili dogs the past few days, nothing." Said Tai.
" Me neither." added sora.
" Well that's not all I've found. I found a sequence of events on the wall and it will lead up to something huge, something BIG." Doc said.
" What is it?"
" One word; Armageddon!"
The group stared with their mouths open. True, the digidestined have been in a lot of tough battles but none of them included in word Armageddon, the ultimate battle between good and evil. They have all heard the word before, but never in reference to them.
" Well thanks for the update, doc. We'll call if we need anything." Finally spoke Tai.
" Ok. See ya guys." And with that, he disappeared.
" I don't know about the rest of you but I need some air." Said Kari.
The others nodded in agree and filed out of the apartment. They found a spot in the park and thought about what has just happen.
" Man, I can't believe we have go through this." Said matt.
" Yeah I mean battling a evil digimon is one thing but fighting in g a battle prophesied by every religion on the planet. That's a lot to take in." said Joe.
" I know Joe. But we have to face this challenge like all the other, with courage." Said Tai. Sora smiled at him with matt shooting a questioning look at her. Just then, a dark portal appeared overhead as the destined look up. A figure stepped out of the portal and landed in front of the group. It looked like Wargreymon but part of him were dark meaning it could only be one being; blackWargreymon.
" Word on the street is that you're looking for me."
" Wait! Where's tentomon?" asked izzy.
The digimon in question flew from behind blackWargreymon.
" I would've stopped him but what the hell could I do!?
I'm just a damn rookie!" he said as he flew by izzy.
" As I was saying, I heard your were looking. What do you want?"
Tai naturally stepped forward.
" We need your help. The real and the digital worlds are in danger from some one called-"
" The digital warlord."
The destined looked shocked as he said it.
" Shocked. I've known about him since the day I was created. I felt his power from dark territory. I hoped to meet him to battle him but his forces are unbelievably strong."
" Yeah and that's why we need allies to battle him. You're the strongest fighter in the digital world. What do you say?"
" You fool! You couldn't beat me at your best. What makes you think that you can beat the warlord?"
" Hey we beat malomyotismon!" said Davis.
" FOOL! The warlord's power makes him look like a rookie. You see, I have the ability to sense power levels. That's how I was able to find the destiny stones. Well in regards to your request and, after careful consideration, I've decided to help you..."
The group cheered.
" Under one condition!"
They stopped.
" If one of you agrees to battle me in mortal combat. If you win, I'll join you. But if you lose, the digimon and their human dies."
The digidestined looked among them, wondering who would fight him.
" I'll fight you." Said Tai.
"But tai-" said sora.
" Look sora, Wargreymon has fought him before and has years of battle experience on his side." He said
" Nice statement, but I have already beaten you before. Who else will challenge me?"
" I will."
They all turned to see max, sam, and keke. Max had the same look in his eyes as when he faced the warlord. Blackwargreymon looked at them with questioning eyes but soon his gaze fell on their leader. Both of their eyes locked as the stared each other down. The others just stared at them with wide eyes. BlackWargreymon, than, walked toward max, not losing his lock on him.
" So who are you?"
" Name's max. I was the one who asked tentomon to look for you."
" Really? So you want to battle me in mortal combat, a human? A boy no less?"
" My father always told me that appearances can be deceiving."
Just than he shot his claw at max's face causing every one to yell and close their eyes. They open them to find the claw just inches from max's face, still with his glare.
" You didn't flinch? Why?"
" I searched you intentions. You weren't going to hit me."
His eyes are those of a warrior. Could he be the foe I've searched foe?
" Alright. You've proven you metal. I'll fight you. Meet me on the alzual plains in two days. Prepare yourself." And he turned and flew into the portal and disappeared. Max was looking up at where he disappeared as Tai walked up to him.
" Man are you sure you wanna do this? I know you're strong but he beat Wargreymon and imperildramon at the same time."
" I'm sure tai."
In the two days that passed, max trained hard as to prepare for his fight with blackWargreymon. Weight training, sparing with the twins, and deep meditation were the norm as readied him for battle. Meanwhile at the alzual plains, blackWargreymon wait on top of one the many natural stone pillars. (Think the place where goku and vegeta first fought.) His thoughts fell on the upcoming battle:
I never thought I think so long about a battle. I have battled and defeated the most powerful digimon on two worlds, yet that boy, his eyes were like mine; those of a true warrior. Since the moment I was created I've searched for an opponent worthy of my power. Have I finally met my ultimate rival?
The day of the battle finally arrived as the destined met at the computer room.
Half of them were excited to witness a good fight while the other half were scarred for max. The d3s entered the room; the twin ran in with big smiles, followed by sam and keke. Than the man of the hour entered in unusual attire; a white dress shirt, a black tie, white dress pants and white shoes. The girls looked at him with dreamy eyes while the boys looked at him with questioning looks.
" What? Just because I'm going fight doesn't I can't look good doing it." He said with a smile.
" All right digi port-" said Davis but max stopped him.
" No davis. Allow me."
He stuck his hand at the screen with his palm open to it. It then started to glow with a golden energy.
" Digi-port open." He said and with that, all of them were transport to the digital world. They landed in a wooded area near a desert. The destined looked at max with shocked eyes, all except Tai.
" Tai did you see that?" asked matt.
" Yep, but frankly after all the things I've him do, I'm not surprised." He said with his smirk.
" Ok. The site is about 1/4 of a mile that way so let's go." Said izzy.
" All that way! I can't walk all that way!" said Mimi.
" Meems you did it before, you can do it again." Said matt.
" Thanks matt." She said with a smile.
The group walked across the desert for an hour. Max was in the lead as he was ready to fight.
" Tai?"
" Yeah sora?"
" Can I talk to you?"
" But what about matt?"
" He wouldn't understand. Anyway, for some reason I feel worried about max."
" It's ok. We all-"
" No I mean I fear for his life. Like I have a connection to him. I know it sounds stupid."
" Well true be known, sora, I fell the same. It's like I wanna to protect him."
" I have been this worried about someone since-" she paused as they looked at each other and smiled as walked the rest of the way.
The group caught site of the battleground as well as the file island digimon.
" Hey leomon what are you guys doing here?"
" We heard about the fight so we decided to watch." He said.
" Yeah and meet the poor bastard who got this job." Added ogremon.
" That would be me." Said max.
" Well all I have to say is good luck." Said leomon.
" Yeah and you better win too. I got 500 digi-dollars riding on your ass." Said ogremon.
" Right." And he headed towards the area.
On a cliff, the nightmare brigade with the warlord in his hover chair watching.
" Master, why are we watching this fight? Why can't we just destroy them?" asked bountymon.
" My boy, you see, blackWargreymon is very powerful but this 'max' person, he's strong. So I'm very interested in seeing who will come on top."
" Well if I were a betting digimon, which I am, I'd lay chips on blackWargreymon." Said casinomon.
" No way mate. I've seen how strong he is. Max is gonna win."
" Quiet down! I think the main event is about to begin!" the warlord said with a grin.
The wind blew dryly as max slid down the slope on the ground and surveyed the area. Than he say his opponent, still standing on the rock pillar with his back turned to him and in one swift motion, he turned around, jumped off and landed about three yards in front of max.
" I thought you wouldn't come."
" Hey, I love a good fight."
" Even one you might die in?"
" My father always said every battle could be your last, so fight with a smile."
" Your father sounds like a wise man."
" He was. Now if you're done chatting, let's dance."
The two took fighting stances as the destined, the d3s, the digimon, the NBs, and the warlord looked on as they prepared to do battle. They stood as statues as the wind blew as silence fell until.. HE STRUCK! BlackWargreymon lunged at max with his right claw causing a dust cloud. After it settled, blackWargreymon was surprised as his claw stuck in a while max had dodged his attack. Furious, he removed his claw and started to slash at max but he dodged his attacks with a smile. It went on for what seemed hours until max decided to retaliate and dashed a punch at blackWargreymon but he ducked his fist and kneed him in his gut. This caused him to fly up and blackWargreymon flew up and head-butted him in the back. He then grabbed max and threw him into a stone mesa. He brought his claw up and created a small energy ball and lugged it at his fallen opponent that caused an explosion. As the dust cleared, blackWargreymon landed near the rubble. The destined stood in shock after the struggle while the d3s smiled. The mega looked at his work and seemed somewhat disappointed.
Pity. It was almost too easy.
He turned as he heard a noise near the pile. To his surprise and the destined, max pushed the rocks off him as he calmly dust off his shirt and straighten his tie.
" That was nice. That blast cleared my nose."
He than start to stretch his arms and legs. The destined and the digimon looked on.
" Uh-oh." Said keke.
" What is it?" asked ken.
" When max starts to stretch, that means he's REALLY gonna fight now."
" Whoa." Said the destined except Tai and sora who looked one with worried eyes,
Max finished his routine as he to a fighting stance.
" Now play time is over."
He than launched himself forward with break-neck speed to blackWargreymon. Before he could react, max landed a punch right in the mega's eyes causing him to stagger back. Max than flew behind him and landed a kick to the back of the neck. He punched him in the stomach, breaking his armor. BlackWargreymon flew up and raised his arms in the air.
I didn't want to do this but-
TERRA DESTROYER
The ball flew straight at max but he just stood in his spot. He than stuck his arm out at the ball with an open fist and his other on his wrist. The ball struck him and exploded. In the aftermath, max was barely burnt. The destined and the digimon were wide-eyed, while Tai and sora smiled almost with pride. The NBs looked just as shock while the warlord grinned. No one had ever taken blackwargreymon's attack and live let alone take it as if it were nothing. Max looked at the stunned digimon with a grin.
" That was good. You know I've got something like that too."
Max placed his legs apart on the ground while he cupped his hands to his side. Soon, his body started to glow a bluish color. The warlord looked at max.
What is he doing? I know he can do energy attacks but- WHAT! His power-it's going up! Fast but how?
Max continued to glow until a blue orb appeared in his hands, as he looked his enemy. The warlord suddenly put it all together.
THAT'S IT! He can raise his power level by concentrating it into one spot. Interesting.
The orb grew in size and it filled both of his hands. Max grinned as he spoke.
" Here it comes!"
TSUNAMI WAVE
As he said this, he brought his hands toward blackWargreymon as the orb exploded into a beam of energy toward him. In an instant, he put up his shield off his back in front of him. The beam connected with him and exploded in a bright blue blast. Every one who was watching the battle shielded their eyes as it died down. Blackwargreymon was survived the impact but not without injury; his shield was gone, his armor was cracked and he was leaking fluid. In return, he flew straight down at max, ramming him in to a stone pillar. He kneed him in the gut once again causing him spit up blood. Max caught him claws under his arms and head butted blackWargreymon repeatedly. BlackWargreymon flipped max to the wall of the plain and added a shoulder charge to the pain. Max punched him in the face causing him to fall on his back. Max jumped on his chest as he rain super fast punches on him. BlackWargreymon claw him off to the side and flew up to perform his terra destroyer. It connected with max in a massive blast. In desperation, he began loping wave after wave of terra destroyers at the site expanding the blast area. He landed near the destined and dropped to his knees, breathing hard. They all stood in shock; they had never seen blackWargreymon racked with pain.
That took every thing I had. He was tough.
The destined looked stunned as the d3s looked horrified s their leader met defeat.
" Damn! Thanks a lot kid. Now I'm out 500 digi-dollar." Said ogremon.
" That's right. And I want my money now, bitch!"
They looked to the side to see the warlord in his hover chair flanked by the NB.
" Aw casinomon! I don't have the money on me so can you wait a few?"
They all looked back at him.
" Let me get this right; ogremon you made a bet with casinomon?" asked Joe.
" It seemed like a good bet."
They all sweat dropped.
" So you come here to rumble?" asked Davis.
" Please, if we wanted to fight than you'd already be dead. We're just here to watch the fight."
" Yeah, and what a fight! I mean it was unbelievable!" added bountymon.
" Now to award the victor- blackWargreymon. I, the digital warlord, am offering you membership in my army. You've proven yourself the superior fighter."
" I don't want to join your little army." He said as he staggered to his feet.
" Pity." Said the warlord as he raised his finger to the mega.
An explosion in the canyon interrupted him. They saw max standing with his legs spread apart and his arms at his side. His cloths were in ruins and he was bloody all over. His teeth were clenched and an aura surrounded him.
" Hey blackWargreymon! We're not done yet!"
He, as well as the others around, stood in awe.
How is he still standing? I threw everything at him and he's still standing. What is he hiding?....................................WHAT!!! THE POWER! I never felt such energy. He stronger than he looks. He stronger than me!
Max ran at blackWargreymon up on the cliff and grabbed him and threw him in the canyon. He jumped at him, not before winking at his friends. As blackWargreymon got up, he caught a foot to the face and return to the ground. Max picked him up by the collar and smashed him to the ground again and again and again. The destined, the digimon, and the d3s cheered him on. Keke had sam in a headlock and beating his head with her fist as she cheered her boyfriend on.
" That's it baby! Hit him! Hit him!"
" And while you're at it, STOP HITTING ME!"
Max continued his assault of punches and kicks. BlackWargreymon fired his terra destroyer at him with churned a cloud of dust, blinding him.
Where did he go?
Max was on a pillar and was powering up with a blue sphere around him. He than just off toward blackWargreymon at great speed with his head out. The mega looked up in time to see the boy coming at him.
" FLYING HEADBUTT!
Almost in so motion, his head connected with blackWargreymon's as both warriors dropped to the ground, tired and beaten. The cliffs erupted with the cheers and whistles of the destined, the d3s, and the digimon. Sam was laid out on the ground from the blows from keke.
" Hey casinomon. Where's my money bitch?" said a happy ogremon.
Casinomon reached in his pocket and gave him a fist full of bills. Ogremon counted the money and smiled.
" Pleasure doing business with ya."
Tai and sora looked at each other and than to max smiling, in pride.
Max and blackWargreymon laid next to each other too beat up and tired to move but not to talk.
" Hey blackWargreymon. Thanks."
" For what?"
" For giving me the best fight I've had in a long time."
" You think this fight is over? Just wait, when I get up I'll really whoop your ass."
Just then, max started to laugh, uncontrollably.
" What's so funny?"
" It's just.........you can't even move. So what are you gonna do, limp me to death?"
The other stopped cheering as they faced the warlord.
" This fight has had some surprises. I'll have to look into this. Until next time, digi-fools." With that, he and his men vanished.
" Hey! Shouldn't we check on max?" said tike.
Tai, sora, and keke were already sliding down the hill to the canyon. The other followed suit. As they near the place where they land, they saw a sight that caused them to jaw drop; max and blackWargreymon LAUGHING like madmen.
" I don't know what weirder, the fact their both laughing, or the fact that blackWargreymon is actually laughing." Said ken.
" I know man. I'm scared too."
As the sun began to set, the file island digimon set off back while max was being wrapped in bandages.
" Do you have to wrap them so damn tight?"
" Hey just because you can heal yourself doesn't you don't need help." Said sam.
" Yeah and you can't just walk the street in torn cloths and blood."
Sora than went up to max and hugged him. At first, he resisted but then hugged her back. The d3s smiled at the sight while the destined looked on questioningly.
" Sora, what was that for?"
" Just don't do it again, okay?"
He nodded as Tai come up to him next.
" Well I've got to hand it to max, that was an amazing fight! You really show your strength." He said as he slapped max on the back, causing him bulged his eyes out.
" OWWW! Please don't do that! I'm in a lot of pain!"
" Oops! Sorry." Tai said just before sora slapped the back of his head.
Max grinned a little at the scene. BlackWargreymon approached the bandaged boy.
" Are you okay?"
" I've had worst."
" You have had a lot of battle experience for some one so young."
" Let's just say it came with the territory."
" Since you battled so good I was hoping to answer my question; why do you fight?"
Max looks at the others and turned back to the digimon.
" It's not why I fight, it's what I fight for."
" What do you mean?"
" What I fight for is the future, my future. It's the reason I get up in the morning and fight that bastard the warlord."
" But how are you so sure that you fight is the right thing?"
" Because every battle I win against the warlord, I get a great feeling here, in my heart. If I have any doubts, I lesson to my friends and my heart."
BlackWargreymon looked back on himself and let his words sink in, and for the first time in a long time, his questions have answers. He did feel good fighting with the digidestined than he did destroying destiny stones. He than looked at max, the only person who seemed to understand him because unlike the others he was a true warrior. Blackwargreymon then stuck out his hand.
" Because you defeated me in honorable combat, when the time comes, I will battle with you."
" Thanks." He said as he shook his hand.
" But afterwards, we will battle again and I will win."
" I look forward to it." He said with a smile.
" Man, the way those two act, they're almost like brothers." Said matt.
" Yeah, brothers of distinction." Added izzy.
" Hey with those two, it's more like brothers of destruction." Said T.K.
The two warriors looked at them and smiled.
" Well see ya around, bro."
" Yeah you too...little brother." And with that, blackWargreymon turned and walked away. Max turned to the others smiling at him.
" Well I've got one question for all of you; can I get a little something something? I just went 12 rounds with a mega digimon, and I'm hungry as hell."
As we walked away, I caught one last look at blackWargreymon before he disappeared. Their were different, he was a control spire digimon and I was a super fighter for the future, but that day, we found something in each other and when we left, I think we truly were................................................brothers.
Next time: the d3s head to file island for a party for the digidestined from around the world, the 12 from odiba and their families. But it cut short as the warlord crashes the party. Plus Max has what you call a homecoming.
CH.7 "ASSAULT ON FILE ISLAND"

MAX: popcorn. On with the fic.
D3: FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE
CH. 6 "BROTHER OF DESTRUCTIONS"
" Why do I always get the hard jobs?" complained tentomon as he flew. He had the unfortunate task of find the most feared digimon in the digital world; BlackWargreymon. Ever thought he not a real digimon, he is the ultimate fighting machine. He has battle again the digidestined on several occasions with him dominating them. Even with the help of Wargreymon, he remained a force to be reckoned with. With the threat of the digital warlord, the destined and the d3s feel they need him as an ally.
" Well I hope they appreciate the risk I'm putting myself in. this is fucking ridicules."
Just then, a dark shadow appeared behind him.
" I heard you were looking for me."
" Uh.. No habla ingles?"
The digidestined waited at izzy's place for tentomon to report back. Tai was pacing around the room while the others sat. Sora sat by matt but watched Tai with worried eyes. Mimi played with yolei's hair while matt secretly watch. T.K. and Kari saw what was going on and whispered to each other with Davis glaring at them. The semi-silence was cut by izzy's computer beeping. Izzy got to it and punched a few keys.
" Tentomon?"
" Nope but you were almost right." A voice said as the screen cleared to show a human.
" Doc!" said Tai.
" We're happy to see you man." Said matt.
" Same here." He responded.
" So what can we do for you?" asked ken.
" No. It's what I can do for you. I have decrypted the second half of the prophecy. And I tell you, it's unbelievable!"
" Well, spill!" said an impatient Davis.
" Well it goes 'and at the place of birth for digimon, at the highest point, courage and love shall shire a hero. He shall have power over the digimon to digivolve. In the human world, he will be a warrior. In the digital world he will be a god. His power will be unrivaled. He shall be called the chosen one, the hero of heroes, and the hope of two worlds.' That's it."
" What does that mean?" asked Davis.
" Well for what I understand, the reason why this warlord want Tai and sora dead because of something they've done or will do in the future. From there this chosen one will appear. But what they will do and how it will happen, I don't know."
" Have you two done anything unusual in the past few days?" izzy asked the two of them. Tai and sora looked at each.
" Other than me eating chili dogs the past few days, nothing." Said Tai.
" Me neither." added sora.
" Well that's not all I've found. I found a sequence of events on the wall and it will lead up to something huge, something BIG." Doc said.
" What is it?"
" One word; Armageddon!"
The group stared with their mouths open. True, the digidestined have been in a lot of tough battles but none of them included in word Armageddon, the ultimate battle between good and evil. They have all heard the word before, but never in reference to them.
" Well thanks for the update, doc. We'll call if we need anything." Finally spoke Tai.
" Ok. See ya guys." And with that, he disappeared.
" I don't know about the rest of you but I need some air." Said Kari.
The others nodded in agree and filed out of the apartment. They found a spot in the park and thought about what has just happen.
" Man, I can't believe we have go through this." Said matt.
" Yeah I mean battling a evil digimon is one thing but fighting in g a battle prophesied by every religion on the planet. That's a lot to take in." said Joe.
" I know Joe. But we have to face this challenge like all the other, with courage." Said Tai. Sora smiled at him with matt shooting a questioning look at her. Just then, a dark portal appeared overhead as the destined look up. A figure stepped out of the portal and landed in front of the group. It looked like Wargreymon but part of him were dark meaning it could only be one being; blackWargreymon.
" Word on the street is that you're looking for me."
" Wait! Where's tentomon?" asked izzy.
The digimon in question flew from behind blackWargreymon.
" I would've stopped him but what the hell could I do!?
I'm just a damn rookie!" he said as he flew by izzy.
" As I was saying, I heard your were looking. What do you want?"
Tai naturally stepped forward.
" We need your help. The real and the digital worlds are in danger from some one called-"
" The digital warlord."
The destined looked shocked as he said it.
" Shocked. I've known about him since the day I was created. I felt his power from dark territory. I hoped to meet him to battle him but his forces are unbelievably strong."
" Yeah and that's why we need allies to battle him. You're the strongest fighter in the digital world. What do you say?"
" You fool! You couldn't beat me at your best. What makes you think that you can beat the warlord?"
" Hey we beat malomyotismon!" said Davis.
" FOOL! The warlord's power makes him look like a rookie. You see, I have the ability to sense power levels. That's how I was able to find the destiny stones. Well in regards to your request and, after careful consideration, I've decided to help you..."
The group cheered.
" Under one condition!"
They stopped.
" If one of you agrees to battle me in mortal combat. If you win, I'll join you. But if you lose, the digimon and their human dies."
The digidestined looked among them, wondering who would fight him.
" I'll fight you." Said Tai.
"But tai-" said sora.
" Look sora, Wargreymon has fought him before and has years of battle experience on his side." He said
" Nice statement, but I have already beaten you before. Who else will challenge me?"
" I will."
They all turned to see max, sam, and keke. Max had the same look in his eyes as when he faced the warlord. Blackwargreymon looked at them with questioning eyes but soon his gaze fell on their leader. Both of their eyes locked as the stared each other down. The others just stared at them with wide eyes. BlackWargreymon, than, walked toward max, not losing his lock on him.
" So who are you?"
" Name's max. I was the one who asked tentomon to look for you."
" Really? So you want to battle me in mortal combat, a human? A boy no less?"
" My father always told me that appearances can be deceiving."
Just than he shot his claw at max's face causing every one to yell and close their eyes. They open them to find the claw just inches from max's face, still with his glare.
" You didn't flinch? Why?"
" I searched you intentions. You weren't going to hit me."
His eyes are those of a warrior. Could he be the foe I've searched foe?
" Alright. You've proven you metal. I'll fight you. Meet me on the alzual plains in two days. Prepare yourself." And he turned and flew into the portal and disappeared. Max was looking up at where he disappeared as Tai walked up to him.
" Man are you sure you wanna do this? I know you're strong but he beat Wargreymon and imperildramon at the same time."
" I'm sure tai."
In the two days that passed, max trained hard as to prepare for his fight with blackWargreymon. Weight training, sparing with the twins, and deep meditation were the norm as readied him for battle. Meanwhile at the alzual plains, blackWargreymon wait on top of one the many natural stone pillars. (Think the place where goku and vegeta first fought.) His thoughts fell on the upcoming battle:
I never thought I think so long about a battle. I have battled and defeated the most powerful digimon on two worlds, yet that boy, his eyes were like mine; those of a true warrior. Since the moment I was created I've searched for an opponent worthy of my power. Have I finally met my ultimate rival?
The day of the battle finally arrived as the destined met at the computer room.
Half of them were excited to witness a good fight while the other half were scarred for max. The d3s entered the room; the twin ran in with big smiles, followed by sam and keke. Than the man of the hour entered in unusual attire; a white dress shirt, a black tie, white dress pants and white shoes. The girls looked at him with dreamy eyes while the boys looked at him with questioning looks.
" What? Just because I'm going fight doesn't I can't look good doing it." He said with a smile.
" All right digi port-" said Davis but max stopped him.
" No davis. Allow me."
He stuck his hand at the screen with his palm open to it. It then started to glow with a golden energy.
" Digi-port open." He said and with that, all of them were transport to the digital world. They landed in a wooded area near a desert. The destined looked at max with shocked eyes, all except Tai.
" Tai did you see that?" asked matt.
" Yep, but frankly after all the things I've him do, I'm not surprised." He said with his smirk.
" Ok. The site is about 1/4 of a mile that way so let's go." Said izzy.
" All that way! I can't walk all that way!" said Mimi.
" Meems you did it before, you can do it again." Said matt.
" Thanks matt." She said with a smile.
The group walked across the desert for an hour. Max was in the lead as he was ready to fight.
" Tai?"
" Yeah sora?"
" Can I talk to you?"
" But what about matt?"
" He wouldn't understand. Anyway, for some reason I feel worried about max."
" It's ok. We all-"
" No I mean I fear for his life. Like I have a connection to him. I know it sounds stupid."
" Well true be known, sora, I fell the same. It's like I wanna to protect him."
" I have been this worried about someone since-" she paused as they looked at each other and smiled as walked the rest of the way.
The group caught site of the battleground as well as the file island digimon.
" Hey leomon what are you guys doing here?"
" We heard about the fight so we decided to watch." He said.
" Yeah and meet the poor bastard who got this job." Added ogremon.
" That would be me." Said max.
" Well all I have to say is good luck." Said leomon.
" Yeah and you better win too. I got 500 digi-dollars riding on your ass." Said ogremon.
" Right." And he headed towards the area.
On a cliff, the nightmare brigade with the warlord in his hover chair watching.
" Master, why are we watching this fight? Why can't we just destroy them?" asked bountymon.
" My boy, you see, blackWargreymon is very powerful but this 'max' person, he's strong. So I'm very interested in seeing who will come on top."
" Well if I were a betting digimon, which I am, I'd lay chips on blackWargreymon." Said casinomon.
" No way mate. I've seen how strong he is. Max is gonna win."
" Quiet down! I think the main event is about to begin!" the warlord said with a grin.
The wind blew dryly as max slid down the slope on the ground and surveyed the area. Than he say his opponent, still standing on the rock pillar with his back turned to him and in one swift motion, he turned around, jumped off and landed about three yards in front of max.
" I thought you wouldn't come."
" Hey, I love a good fight."
" Even one you might die in?"
" My father always said every battle could be your last, so fight with a smile."
" Your father sounds like a wise man."
" He was. Now if you're done chatting, let's dance."
The two took fighting stances as the destined, the d3s, the digimon, the NBs, and the warlord looked on as they prepared to do battle. They stood as statues as the wind blew as silence fell until.. HE STRUCK! BlackWargreymon lunged at max with his right claw causing a dust cloud. After it settled, blackWargreymon was surprised as his claw stuck in a while max had dodged his attack. Furious, he removed his claw and started to slash at max but he dodged his attacks with a smile. It went on for what seemed hours until max decided to retaliate and dashed a punch at blackWargreymon but he ducked his fist and kneed him in his gut. This caused him to fly up and blackWargreymon flew up and head-butted him in the back. He then grabbed max and threw him into a stone mesa. He brought his claw up and created a small energy ball and lugged it at his fallen opponent that caused an explosion. As the dust cleared, blackWargreymon landed near the rubble. The destined stood in shock after the struggle while the d3s smiled. The mega looked at his work and seemed somewhat disappointed.
Pity. It was almost too easy.
He turned as he heard a noise near the pile. To his surprise and the destined, max pushed the rocks off him as he calmly dust off his shirt and straighten his tie.
" That was nice. That blast cleared my nose."
He than start to stretch his arms and legs. The destined and the digimon looked on.
" Uh-oh." Said keke.
" What is it?" asked ken.
" When max starts to stretch, that means he's REALLY gonna fight now."
" Whoa." Said the destined except Tai and sora who looked one with worried eyes,
Max finished his routine as he to a fighting stance.
" Now play time is over."
He than launched himself forward with break-neck speed to blackWargreymon. Before he could react, max landed a punch right in the mega's eyes causing him to stagger back. Max than flew behind him and landed a kick to the back of the neck. He punched him in the stomach, breaking his armor. BlackWargreymon flew up and raised his arms in the air.
I didn't want to do this but-
TERRA DESTROYER
The ball flew straight at max but he just stood in his spot. He than stuck his arm out at the ball with an open fist and his other on his wrist. The ball struck him and exploded. In the aftermath, max was barely burnt. The destined and the digimon were wide-eyed, while Tai and sora smiled almost with pride. The NBs looked just as shock while the warlord grinned. No one had ever taken blackwargreymon's attack and live let alone take it as if it were nothing. Max looked at the stunned digimon with a grin.
" That was good. You know I've got something like that too."
Max placed his legs apart on the ground while he cupped his hands to his side. Soon, his body started to glow a bluish color. The warlord looked at max.
What is he doing? I know he can do energy attacks but- WHAT! His power-it's going up! Fast but how?
Max continued to glow until a blue orb appeared in his hands, as he looked his enemy. The warlord suddenly put it all together.
THAT'S IT! He can raise his power level by concentrating it into one spot. Interesting.
The orb grew in size and it filled both of his hands. Max grinned as he spoke.
" Here it comes!"
TSUNAMI WAVE
As he said this, he brought his hands toward blackWargreymon as the orb exploded into a beam of energy toward him. In an instant, he put up his shield off his back in front of him. The beam connected with him and exploded in a bright blue blast. Every one who was watching the battle shielded their eyes as it died down. Blackwargreymon was survived the impact but not without injury; his shield was gone, his armor was cracked and he was leaking fluid. In return, he flew straight down at max, ramming him in to a stone pillar. He kneed him in the gut once again causing him spit up blood. Max caught him claws under his arms and head butted blackWargreymon repeatedly. BlackWargreymon flipped max to the wall of the plain and added a shoulder charge to the pain. Max punched him in the face causing him to fall on his back. Max jumped on his chest as he rain super fast punches on him. BlackWargreymon claw him off to the side and flew up to perform his terra destroyer. It connected with max in a massive blast. In desperation, he began loping wave after wave of terra destroyers at the site expanding the blast area. He landed near the destined and dropped to his knees, breathing hard. They all stood in shock; they had never seen blackWargreymon racked with pain.
That took every thing I had. He was tough.
The destined looked stunned as the d3s looked horrified s their leader met defeat.
" Damn! Thanks a lot kid. Now I'm out 500 digi-dollar." Said ogremon.
" That's right. And I want my money now, bitch!"
They looked to the side to see the warlord in his hover chair flanked by the NB.
" Aw casinomon! I don't have the money on me so can you wait a few?"
They all looked back at him.
" Let me get this right; ogremon you made a bet with casinomon?" asked Joe.
" It seemed like a good bet."
They all sweat dropped.
" So you come here to rumble?" asked Davis.
" Please, if we wanted to fight than you'd already be dead. We're just here to watch the fight."
" Yeah, and what a fight! I mean it was unbelievable!" added bountymon.
" Now to award the victor- blackWargreymon. I, the digital warlord, am offering you membership in my army. You've proven yourself the superior fighter."
" I don't want to join your little army." He said as he staggered to his feet.
" Pity." Said the warlord as he raised his finger to the mega.
An explosion in the canyon interrupted him. They saw max standing with his legs spread apart and his arms at his side. His cloths were in ruins and he was bloody all over. His teeth were clenched and an aura surrounded him.
" Hey blackWargreymon! We're not done yet!"
He, as well as the others around, stood in awe.
How is he still standing? I threw everything at him and he's still standing. What is he hiding?....................................WHAT!!! THE POWER! I never felt such energy. He stronger than he looks. He stronger than me!
Max ran at blackWargreymon up on the cliff and grabbed him and threw him in the canyon. He jumped at him, not before winking at his friends. As blackWargreymon got up, he caught a foot to the face and return to the ground. Max picked him up by the collar and smashed him to the ground again and again and again. The destined, the digimon, and the d3s cheered him on. Keke had sam in a headlock and beating his head with her fist as she cheered her boyfriend on.
" That's it baby! Hit him! Hit him!"
" And while you're at it, STOP HITTING ME!"
Max continued his assault of punches and kicks. BlackWargreymon fired his terra destroyer at him with churned a cloud of dust, blinding him.
Where did he go?
Max was on a pillar and was powering up with a blue sphere around him. He than just off toward blackWargreymon at great speed with his head out. The mega looked up in time to see the boy coming at him.
" FLYING HEADBUTT!
Almost in so motion, his head connected with blackWargreymon's as both warriors dropped to the ground, tired and beaten. The cliffs erupted with the cheers and whistles of the destined, the d3s, and the digimon. Sam was laid out on the ground from the blows from keke.
" Hey casinomon. Where's my money bitch?" said a happy ogremon.
Casinomon reached in his pocket and gave him a fist full of bills. Ogremon counted the money and smiled.
" Pleasure doing business with ya."
Tai and sora looked at each other and than to max smiling, in pride.
Max and blackWargreymon laid next to each other too beat up and tired to move but not to talk.
" Hey blackWargreymon. Thanks."
" For what?"
" For giving me the best fight I've had in a long time."
" You think this fight is over? Just wait, when I get up I'll really whoop your ass."
Just then, max started to laugh, uncontrollably.
" What's so funny?"
" It's just.........you can't even move. So what are you gonna do, limp me to death?"
The other stopped cheering as they faced the warlord.
" This fight has had some surprises. I'll have to look into this. Until next time, digi-fools." With that, he and his men vanished.
" Hey! Shouldn't we check on max?" said tike.
Tai, sora, and keke were already sliding down the hill to the canyon. The other followed suit. As they near the place where they land, they saw a sight that caused them to jaw drop; max and blackWargreymon LAUGHING like madmen.
" I don't know what weirder, the fact their both laughing, or the fact that blackWargreymon is actually laughing." Said ken.
" I know man. I'm scared too."
As the sun began to set, the file island digimon set off back while max was being wrapped in bandages.
" Do you have to wrap them so damn tight?"
" Hey just because you can heal yourself doesn't you don't need help." Said sam.
" Yeah and you can't just walk the street in torn cloths and blood."
Sora than went up to max and hugged him. At first, he resisted but then hugged her back. The d3s smiled at the sight while the destined looked on questioningly.
" Sora, what was that for?"
" Just don't do it again, okay?"
He nodded as Tai come up to him next.
" Well I've got to hand it to max, that was an amazing fight! You really show your strength." He said as he slapped max on the back, causing him bulged his eyes out.
" OWWW! Please don't do that! I'm in a lot of pain!"
" Oops! Sorry." Tai said just before sora slapped the back of his head.
Max grinned a little at the scene. BlackWargreymon approached the bandaged boy.
" Are you okay?"
" I've had worst."
" You have had a lot of battle experience for some one so young."
" Let's just say it came with the territory."
" Since you battled so good I was hoping to answer my question; why do you fight?"
Max looks at the others and turned back to the digimon.
" It's not why I fight, it's what I fight for."
" What do you mean?"
" What I fight for is the future, my future. It's the reason I get up in the morning and fight that bastard the warlord."
" But how are you so sure that you fight is the right thing?"
" Because every battle I win against the warlord, I get a great feeling here, in my heart. If I have any doubts, I lesson to my friends and my heart."
BlackWargreymon looked back on himself and let his words sink in, and for the first time in a long time, his questions have answers. He did feel good fighting with the digidestined than he did destroying destiny stones. He than looked at max, the only person who seemed to understand him because unlike the others he was a true warrior. Blackwargreymon then stuck out his hand.
" Because you defeated me in honorable combat, when the time comes, I will battle with you."
" Thanks." He said as he shook his hand.
" But afterwards, we will battle again and I will win."
" I look forward to it." He said with a smile.
" Man, the way those two act, they're almost like brothers." Said matt.
" Yeah, brothers of distinction." Added izzy.
" Hey with those two, it's more like brothers of destruction." Said T.K.
The two warriors looked at them and smiled.
" Well see ya around, bro."
" Yeah you too...little brother." And with that, blackWargreymon turned and walked away. Max turned to the others smiling at him.
" Well I've got one question for all of you; can I get a little something something? I just went 12 rounds with a mega digimon, and I'm hungry as hell."
As we walked away, I caught one last look at blackWargreymon before he disappeared. Their were different, he was a control spire digimon and I was a super fighter for the future, but that day, we found something in each other and when we left, I think we truly were................................................brothers.
Next time: the d3s head to file island for a party for the digidestined from around the world, the 12 from odiba and their families. But it cut short as the warlord crashes the party. Plus Max has what you call a homecoming.
