Chapter 2:
Years of Work
Ruined


Genni taught Shawn many things about protecting himself from danger and how to fight digimon in case Shawn would get seperated from his digimon, which had hatched days before into a ramuhmon. Also Genni had given him a pendant, which Genni told him would help him and his digimon fight. And Genni even taught Shawn all what he would learn in school. It had been one year in earth's time but in digiworld it had been a milenium or more. So when it was over Shawn could speak quite well two or three languages, solve complex math problems, and all other advanced skills of those in high school and even probaly college.

One day a short figure dressed like Genni's kind walked up to Shawn. It was the day Shawn was going to leave to hunt down Draculmon and destroy him. "Shawn, I'm scared you'll get hurt." the figure told him. "No I won't, not as long as Magemon's with me." Shawn said as his digimon ran up to him, who had recently digivolved. "Please promise you'll be back." the figure said taking off her hood. "You're a human! Just like me." Shawn said surprised. "Yes, my name is Katie, awhile ago I was brought here through a gate and Genni found me and said he'd take care of me." the girl told Shawn. "I remember you. You were one of the other four children at the excavation site." Shawn suddenly remembered. "Yes, now please promise you'll be back." she asked him again. "I promise. Lets go, Magemon. We have to go." Shawn said as he and Magemon left.

It had been four days since Shawn had left to hunt down Draculmon. Magemon was very bored and started to talk to himself. Shawn had began to use the labtop Genni had given him. He sat and looked at the profiles of SkullGarurumon and Sphinxmon. As it seemed both were rare and equal in power. "Interesting, this counters what Genni taught me about digimon. Usually a Mega or Ultimate digimon can easily defeat a Champion, but in this case a Champion, Sphinxmon, can defeat or come to a draw with a Mega, SkullGarurumon." Shawn explained. "Yes, I've heard of these rare events, but Shawn think about it, why did that SkullGarurumon go after you?" Magemon asked. "I don't know." Shawn said then a tree branch broke behind him. "Hello, human." a cloaked figure said as it and five Vilemon slowly walked towards Shawn. "Who are you?" Shawn asked very scared. "I am SkullMerlimon, the Dark Prince of Nightmares, and my master has ordered me to kill you. Oh and I'm sure you know him. He is the one you are hunting for, Draculmon. Vilemon, attack!" the figure said as he removed the hood of his cloak to reveal a palish grey face. "Magemon, what are we going to do?" Shawn asked backing away. "I'll fight them, you go and run." Magemon told Shawn as he attacked the vilemon. Shawn then ran into the nearby forest. But as he entered the forest Magemon digivolved into Morphamon. Morphamon took out the vilemon and then stood infront of SkullMerlimon. "So, its down to you and I. I must say you are strong. If you can take me on I will, like my former partner Merlimon, help you to fight Draculmon. I too dislike him and find him as an evil that must be stopped." SkullMerlimon said as he began to attack. "It's a deal." Morphamon said as he shapeshifted to look like Merlimon. They fought for a few minutes, then Morphamon turned back into his true form and finished SkullMerlimon. "You are strong. I am badly damaged and am starting to reformat. Take this Data which will change some of your champion form so if you are seperated for your partner, no virus will think about attacking you because the data will make you look like you serve a very evil master. I will one day come back to help. So, goodbye for now, Morphamon." SkullMerlimon said giving the data to Morphamon, which absorbed into him. He then turned to digital dust and disappeared. Morphamon then went to find Shawn.

Days had passed and Shawn had gotten far from where he wanted to be by this time. He wished he could be with Magemon, which he didn't he had digivolved to Morphamon. Shawn sat under a tree eating a sandwich. As he finished he heard something in the distance. He jumped up and ran out from under the tree with his pack and saw two dark creature flying towards him. Then from a tree a monkey-like digimon jumped and laughed. As it stopped laughing the other two creatures landed on both sides of it. "Hmm, interesting, I've never thought I'd find a creature like this." the one that resembled a demon said as he thought of what Shawn was. "I found him first!" the monkey digimon said as he attacked the demon digimon. Shawn seeing this chance ran away from them. But the third digimon, which was vampire-like, chased after him. "You can run, but I will catch you. I am Myotismon, and when I catch you I will make you my prisoner." the vampire digimon yelled as he flew closer and closer. Shawn then looked back to see a better look of his chaser. Even though he looked nothing like Draculmon, Shawn saw Draculmon's face and stopped. Myotismon landed a few feet infront of Shawn and laughed. "Hahahaha, why did you stop? Are you tired?" Myotismon asked as he began to walk closer towards Shawn. "Don't you dare get any closer to him!" a voice came then Morphamon jumped out from a bush. "A morphamon? Ahahahahaha, do you think you're a match for me?" Myotismon laughed. "Stop laughing! With my help he will beat you!" Shawn suddenly yelled as he realized Morphamon was Magemon. "And how will your help defeat me? Tell me that." Myotismon said as he did an attack called crimson lightning then an attack called grisly wing to Morphamon. "I'll show you! Digidestined of Destiny digivolve to....Emperor Vampiremon!" Shawn yelled as his pendant glowed and he digivolved, something humans couldn't do. But as he stopped glowing the power of the form caused him to faint. "Shawn, no...I can't help you now. I'm too scaried of you now." Morphamon whispered then ran away. "He digivolved. Hmm...maybe he can be made to serve me." Myotismon said to himself as he commanded some bats to carry Shawn away.

Shawn woke in a stone castle in an area near server. He was in a gigantic room. As he stood up he saw Myotismon at the top of the nearby steps. "So you are awake. I will let you live, but only if you become my servent." he said as he command some bats to carry a black robe down to him. "You mean your Dark Prince." Shawn said as he looked at the robe. "Yes, and if you serve me well, I might set you free." Myotismon told him. "I have no choice. If I refuse you destroy me. I will be your dark prince." Shawn said as he took the robe. Then Myotismon threw a small black sphere at him which absorbed into him. "That will make sure you don't turn against me when I need you to do an important task." Myotismon said as he went through the doorway at the top of the steps. Now alone Shawn could feel the sphere in him. But also he felt something in him he had always had but never noticed. He put his arm out and as if it was natural the darkness in him collected in the palm of his hand and then as he released it a dark beam went from his hand. Then suddenly his laptop turn on. Shawn took it out and found a program that identidified attacks. As he looked at the scrren he saw a video of what he had done, the attack he had done was called Dark Prince beam. Shawn then put on the robe and as if he always could he floated up to the top of the steps and flew out the door into the hallway.

Shawn had been given a private room in one of the castle towers. There he found a mirror. "What happened to me?" Shawn asked himself looking in the mirror. What he saw was his skin was now very pale and also he noticed that sun light weakened him and could possible burn him, mainly because with his skin pale he could burn easy. He then right away covered the window then got some candles and lighted them. Shawn then got his labtop and opened a program Genni told him to turn on as so as he could after digivolving. As he looked at it a message from Genni came on. "Shawn, this program is a profiler for you to use. You can scan then make a profile or update an existing profile of a digimon. Also there is a feature for you to use to make up your report on the effects of digivolving on humans. End message" the message told Shawn. After the message Shawn entered the feature to do the report.

After an hour he finished and then transfered the profiles of digimon from the one program who looked at before to the new program. It was now late and Shawn usually went to sleep at this time but he didn't feel tired so he got up and began to explore the castle. As he walked down the tower he saw many Bakemon floating around. All flew by as fast as possible because Myotismon had told them about him. He actually felt safer than usual with the hooded robe on. No digimon could see who he was and they would fear what could be under the hood. Suddenly he had a feeling of being summoned. He then walked to a room close by where he found Myotismon waiting. "I see the dark sphere works well at controling you. Now, tomorrow you are going to go and destroy a digimon that stands in my way, Aeromon. He is two days to the west. After he is destroyed I want you to take over his area and find a book I require." Myotismon explained. "Yes, master." Shawn said as he began to leave.

The next morning Shawn left alone to the west. He walked all day until night fall where he stopped for the night. By as he began to fall asleep an eerie glow came a few meters away. Shawn walked towards it and found a cave that felt like it was calling to him. He enetered and walked to the back of the cave where he found a cloak, four swords, a piece of a digimon's egg, and a weird digiegg. As Shawn looked around he saw a stone pillar big enough to hold his digivise, pendant, and tag and crest. Shawn then put them on the pillar and left the cave. Once outside he watched as the cave was sealed and a voice say, "When the time of evil comes this cave will be unsealed." Shawn had no clue to what it meant but he then returned to where he set his pack down and then went to sleep because he'd need as much of strength he could get for the fight he'd have the next day.
