Author's note: Sorry this was late. By the way, if the tense swings, SORRY! But this is ultimately in the present tense.
The cool breeze blows across Sam's face and rouses her slightly. She opens one eye, letting her see enough to know it is night. She closes her eye and snuggles deeper into S.K'S warm coat, rather enjoying the relative calm than waking up just yet.
S.K feels his master movements and nudges her insistently till Sam finally concides.
"Okay! Okay! I'm up,"
Sam righted up to a sitting position and stretches her arms to the night sky as she let's out a loud yawn.
"You haven't changed being a farm dog! Always waking me before I'm ready."
"Rowf!" S.K barks his reply and his face breaks into a soppy grin.
"Yeah," Sam laughs and places a hand on S.K's neck, partly as a pat and partly to let him help her get up.
"Now, then, exactly what happened?"
S.K tosses his head and Sam follows where he is pointing, to see a large bonfire with several children and monsters gathered around it.
"Hello," greets Sam, waving a hand friendly as she approaches the camp.
"Sam! You're finally awake!" Ash exclaims, diverting from a conversation he is having with Tai.
"Do you feel better?" asks Mimi concernedly.
"Yeah, and I look better too," replies Sam, noticing her wounds are competely gone.
"Where's Elementroar and the Legends?"
"Elementroar just went off somewhere and the Legends said they were returning to their islands and towers," answers Ash.
A gurgling sound is heard.
"He! And I think I feel much better if I get something to eat," she says sheepishly, sitting crosslegged between Joe and Misty.
"No problem! I've just finished cooking some Vitamin Fortified Porridge," says Brock, tending to a bubbling pot on the bonfire, "Or just really healthy porridge."
He starts dishing out the porridge into bowls and hands the first one to Sam.
"Yes! Thanks!"
All the rest start eating immediately while continuing on with their conversations.
"This is the first good meal I've had in days!"
"So, if you catch'em, you can train them up and some even evolve!"
"Myotismon suddenly comes back as VEMONmyotismon but me and Wargreymon took care of him easy!"
"Don't take this wrong way, Sora, but I think Tai's as pigheaded as Ash."
"Why should I take that the wrong way? It's not like Tai's my boyfriend or anything!"
"So, how do you get the Pokemon into the Pokeballs?"
"Where's my hat?! Oh, there it is!"
"Hm?"
Sam finds her shirt sleeve being tugged by S.K anxiously.
"What's the"
~GURRR~~~GGLLEEE!
"What was THAT?" exclaims Joe in alarm, backing away from S.K (for having never seen such a big dog before).
"Oh, S.K's just hungry."
Everyone sweatdrops.
"Doesn't any of you Pokemon Trainers have ANY Pokechow?" Sam turns to Ash, Misty and Brock.
"It might not be enough for S.K even if we pooled all of ours together!" comments Brock, noting S.K's immense size.
"We don't have anything either." says Tai, holding up his empty hands.
"Hey! What about the place at the foot of the mountain? I think we left our stuff there." says Joe.
"My labtop should be there as well,"
"Great, S.K will take you there,"
Before Izzy can protest, S.K rises and tosses him onto his back and speeds off to the mountains.
"AARRRGGhhhhh!"
"He'll be back in less than 10 minutes, S.K's can run faster than the wind when he's hungry."
Sam thinks for a few moments then asks,"Where are those two guys who pulled out of danger? I want to thank them,"
"You mean Team Rocket? You want to thank Team Rocket? Are you out of your mind!? They're the worst bunch of villians this side of Kanto! They can't even steal a Caterpie if their life depended on it," scoffs Misty.
"Team Rocket, you say. Yes, I've heard of them, an organization dedicated to using Pokemon for profit. All the same, I want to thank them. So where are they?"
"They're over there, don't get too friendly with them,"
Sam strides across to the edge of the field where it meets the forest, to find a Ash and co's Pokemon as well as the Digi-destined Digimon in a huddle, talking.
"A few moments more, when those dopey monsters let their guard down, we'll get them!" whispers Jessie excitedly.
"Hee hee hee!" laughs James in reply.
"Quiet down, you two!" hisses Meowth.
"Do you want them to hear us?"
"Hear what?" queries Sam, stepping up behind them.
"ARGH!" shouts Team Rocket and start gibbering out excuses.
Sam smiles, "You don't have to worry, all I wanted was to thank you for saving me out there,"
Sam extends a hand to shake which Jessie shook tentatively.
As Sam turns back to walk away, she makes an off-handed gesture.
Suddenly, huge vines spring out of the ground and wrap themselves around Team Rocket and pulls them to the ground.
"HEY! WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA?" screams Jessie, struggling.
"LET ME OUT OF THIS THING!" shouts James in protest.
"LET MEEE-OWTH OUT!!!!" screeches Meowth.
"Sorry, I'm grateful and all, but you are Team Rocket and I can't take chances letting you be free with Pokemon and Digimon around," says Sam apologetically,"Believe me, I'm no fool country bumpking."
Leaving Team Rocket protesting and struggling in the brush, she walks towards the Pokemon and Digimon.
"Hi, how's everything?" she asks as she approaches.
"Heeeyy, Sam! You're okay!" says Agumon gleefully, running up to her.
"We were worried when you slept so long!" adds Biyomon, flying close by.
"Yeah," agrees Patamon, flying along side.
"Are you still hurt?" asks Palmon.
"Nay! I never felt better in my life, what have you guys been doing?" she replies.
"We've been talking with the Pokemon! They've been telling us all the battles Ash and there went through and we've been telling the battles we've had with the evil Digimon and Myotismon and the Dark Masters!" chirps Biyomon.
"CHAARRRRAAWWW!" Charizard roars a greeting, turning his big frame to meet Sam.
"Pika! Pika chu!" Pikachu walks up to her and does a victory sign to her.
"He he! Yeah," Sam returns the gesture.
"Bulba, bulba-SAUR!" Bulbasaur slowly walks up her.
"Psy?"
"You guys were great out there. If it weren't for you, the Digimon would have died unjustly."
"Char!"
"Pika!"
"BulBA!"
"Psy?"
"Oh! By the way," Sam turns to the Digimon with a sad look on her face.
"I'm really sorry, for trying to, well, kill you,"
"It's okay, we were trying to kill you too. Besides, you weren't yourself and so were we," replies Gomamon.
"We should say sorry to you too!" says Patamon.
"Why don't we say sorry together?" suggests Sam.
"Okay! 1 2 3 and..."
"SORRY!"
The Digimon and Pokemon fall over laughing as well as Sam, finally having the guilt lift off her chest.
When she finally has gasped for air, Sam realises something.
"Wait a minute, how can you guys be talking with each other?"
"Why, by using our mouths of course," says Gabumon.
"Now, not that. It's just that, I know Pokemon understand English, but if you are speaking English and they speak Pokemonish, how can you guys be having a conversation?"
"Pokemonish? They're sound like speaking English to me," says Palmon.
"Yeah, I've been talking to Charizard for half an hour now and he's been talking English to me," says Agumon.
"That's wierd. Can you Pokemon really speak English?"
"Pika," Pikachu shakes his head.
"See! He just said no!" says Patamon.
"No, he said 'Pika' but you heard 'No'. So that means Pokemon and Digimon can understand each other no matter what language they use and are able to talk to each other."
"This is kind of wierd. I guess monsters have their own language universally."
"But this isn't the Digital World or the real world we know"
"Digital World? Where's that?"
"That's where us Digimon live. It's parallel to the real world," explains Gomamon.
"But this isn't our real world," protests Biyomon.
"The real world never had Pokemon, at least, I guess it didn't,"adds Gabumon.
"So, if this isn't your real world, then how come you're here?" wonders Sam.
"I believe I can explain that, if you all shall return to the bonfire," says a deep, ominous voice out of nowhere.
"Who's that?" shouts Sam in alarm, whirling around, only to stare straight into the Elementroar's ice plate.
"All shall be explained once you all have gathered at the bonfire. I shall be waiting,"
With that, Elementroar walks to the bonfire, his wings furling and unfurling everyone few moments and his tail, mouth closed for the night, swishes slowly back and forth. Even in the darkness of the night, moonlight and starlight still reflect off his horn, or perhaps, it radiates its own light.
Sam, the Pokemon and the Digimon all look at each other and shrugg, and start going back to the bonfire as a group.
The talk at the bonfire immediately cease as Elementroar approaches, behind him are Sam, the Pokemon and the Digimon. (Izzy and S.K are back already)
After sitting themselves in a large circle around the flickering firelight, Elementroar sits beside Sam and seems to be deep in thought for a few moments.
"You, Digi-destined and Digimon, wish to know why, you have appeared in this world," he finally speaks, not just addressing the Digimoners but everyone present.
"The answer, dates far back into the past, back past the days of knights and dragons, perhaps, back to when the world was black and dark and creatures unnatural prowled the land,"
Elementroar's voice was hypnotic and melodious. Whether he meant to or not, he was lulling everyone into a trance, their heads swayed and bobbed like a small rowboat on the rocky seas. As Elementroar's stories unfold, they found themselves in the midst of the Old World, reliving what was.
"Not many knew that, the Digimon World and the Pokemon World were always close to each other. So close that, on many occasions, dimensional rifts would be opened and the two worlds will be joined."
"When evil monsters from the Digimon world spilled forth into this world, they wrecked havoc and destruction. The monsters and people of the Pokemon would fight back, creating wars and spilling bloodshed of both on this land. The people, did not know what the Digimon were, and thus came the myths of ogres, trolls and demons."
The children and monsters were transported to world long past, set in a sea of fog over a desolate wasteland where grim faced men with shimmering and bright swords rode on fiery steeds to battle. Out of the gloom came Orgremons, Fuugamons, Devimons and the like, roaring and growling in the darkness, it was easy to see why they were thought to be demons from the underworld. The men charged and the monsters charged and they hacked and killed till the bodies piled high and the earth became damp with blood. No matter how many battles the children faced, or how many times the Digi-destined have fought and deleted countless foes, none were prepared for the cruel face of true war, where an arm lost was but a minor casualty. The children were in tears and all closed their eyes to the horror.
"However, for every war, there was one who knew and one who was fated to seal the rift for the good of all. Such was his destiny."
Another tall, human figure strode out of the gloom, clad with ancient armour and grasping a great sword in his hand. Walking beside him was none other than Elementroar. Together, they fought of the hordes of monsters what an army of the finest warriors could not and forced them back towards the hole whence they came. The great warrior sealed the rift and at that moment, the vision ended and the children and monsters snapped back to reality.
"What you saw, was the last time I was summoned. It was more than 1000 years ago and the man you saw,"
Elementroar turned to Sam and said meaningfully.
"That man was your great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather,"
Elementroar snickered.
"I know it's a mouthful but it's true. He was the last summoner in your family before you and he was a great knight of noble blood in the courts of the king at that time,"
"Your bloodline, Sam Khan, are the ones chosen by He from the dawn of time, to ensure the balance. You are bound to She by name and fate and are destined to do Its bidding on these worlds,"
"What do you mean He, She and It? Are they three people or things?"
Elementroar shaked his head, "No. They are one an the same. But, the one is not He, She or It or all three together. The One is probably the best title I can come up with. As for who or what he is, again, he is not a "who" or "what" but everything and nothing,"
"What the heck does that all mean?" shouted Tai, confused and a little shaky after the scene of the battlefield.
"Is he God?" asked T.K tentatively.
"No. One is not of nor bound to any religion. One is before religion and beyond God, Satan, Buddha, Odin and other gods."
"What does he do? I mean, if he is so powerful, why have we not known "it" until now?" asked Mimi.
"I admit I do not know that much of One. He is as much a mystery to me as he is to you. Just bare this in mind, One does things for a reason, if he believed that this way is the best then it is all we can do to follow it."
"Elementroar, I've been to ask you this,"
"What is it, Summoner?"
"Why did a false Elementroar appear first when I summoned you?" Sam asks.
"Ah yes, I have almost forgotten that. In truth, the false one was planted by me,"
"But why"
"Hush! I shall explain. Of all the summoners I have seen, you are by far the youngest. And I feared that you would not be wise enough to take this task seriously."
"So, that was a test. That almost killed us, Elementroar," Sam was angry, how could Elementroar, just, just do that!
"Yes, yes it was a test. A test that you passed very well, Summoner! But I assure you, that all your lives were not in danger. Of all things, I would not have killed you."
"What was that test for, anyway?" asks Ash.
"That test, was a test of judgement. If she could see through predjudice, hate and fear to see truth, then, she is far wiser than most men."
"So, like, what do we do now?" asks Joe, hugging Gomamon.
"It is simple really, we have to get you back to your own dimension. This is complicated as firstly, the dimensional balance is still shaken from your entry, more so since your entry to this world, was not natural,"
"Someone from this world has created a device so powerful it has made an artificial dimensional rift! And before I return to the earth, I must find it and destroy it! A device like that shall destroy both dimensions!"
"But we have no clue where to start! All we have are, are," Tai feels in his pocket and brings out a small, black object."
"This blackchip!"
"Ah! Give it to me, boy. Let me examine it,"
Elementroar placed the chip on his paw and looked at it closely while the other Digi-destined brought out their chips.
"I cannot detect much. This chip was made here, in this dimension from its scent and beyonf that I do not know,"
"Let me try, Elementroar, I believe the magnifier and mini-scanner on my labtop would be quite useful here,"
"You have a microscope?"
"And a mini-scanner?"
"Why didn't you tell us before!?!?" shouts Tai in anguish.
"Because there was nothing much to use it on back in the Digital World. Besides, the resolution is horrible! But I believe it should find some things on our blackchip,",
Izzy places his black chip under the mini-scanner that has popped out of the sideboard. After scanning, he uses his program to magnigy it several times.
"Well, is there anything?" asks Misty.
"Yes, wait! Okay, I think I got it! It looks like, it looks like letters! Wait, I see a, a T and I think an R next to it!"
"What do you think they mean?" muses Izzy, raising his head from the computer screen.
However, Ash, Misty and Brock eyed each other and then...
"TEAM ROCKET!"
"I KNEW they had to be involved with this!"
"But this time they've gone too far!"
"Team Rocket? THEY made this chip?" asks Sam, looking closely at the chip.
"Hmmm...The fact that there are two dimensions is only known to the summoner's family and myself. How could they have found out?" says Elementroar.
"Well, let's just get over there and find out!" exclaims Tai.
"We don't know where to start, Tai. Do you guys know where Team Rocket is?"
"Their main headquarters? Nah, we only get bothered by Team Rocket by Jessie, James and Meowth..."
Everyone freezes and turns to the place where Team Rocket was tied up.
"This damn rope is chaffing my delicate skin!" complained Jessie, struggling to unbind the vines.
"I'm hungry!" whined James,"They're having porridge, I can smell it all the way here!"
"Quit yer yapping, I'll get us out of here in two shakes of a Nidoran's tail,"
"The male or female?" asks James dumbly.
"SHUT UP!" shouts Jessie.
Meowth has almost cut through the vines with his claw and he suddenly realises a very large stone paw beside his own."
"Uh? ARGH!"
Elementroar bends down low.
"We will need your assistance,"
"Yeah? With what?" gibbers James, kicking and pushing himself backwards (ultimately crushing both Jessie and Meowth).
"Do you know where the Team Rocket HQ is?" asks Sam, standing beside Elementroar.
"Te-Team Rocket HQ? You mean the main one? Well..." Jessie grins and smirks as a plan forms in her head.
"What are we getting if we told you?"
"Give us half the monsters and we'll call it a deal," says Jessie.
"What do you think?" Sam asks Elementroar.
"I think, I'll just read their minds then,"
"Isn't that risky?"
"I admit I might be too powerful and quite possibly destroy their minds,"
"WHAT?!" exclaims Team Rocket.
"I guess we have no choice, they aren't going to tell us anything,"
"WAIT! WE'LL TAKE YOU THERE! WE'LL TAKE YOU THERE!"
The next morning...
"Are you guys ready?"
The children just had a really good breakfast thanks to Elementroar who used his "Elemental Creation" to create bread, fruits, mushrooms and all sorts of stuff for them to eat.
"Yeah, we're done." answers Tai, his mouth still filled with food.
"So, Team Rocket has to ride on Elementroar to tell him where to go and we just follow, right?" Ash asks Sam.
"Yeah, I'll ride S.K and the Digi-destined said that they would either ride on their Digimon or some of them will ride with Elementroar. I guess you can ride on Charizard,"
"Yeah, well, Charizard doesn't like to be ridden often but I guess he'll let me," says Ash unsurely.
"Okay. are you ready. guys?" Tai asks Agumon, Biyomon, Gabumon and Tentomon.
"Yeah! Let's Digivolve!"
"Agumon Digivolve to..."
"GREYMON!"
"Greymon Digivolve to..."
"METALGREYMON!" roars Greymon as wings sprout from his back and his head and arm metallizes.
"Biyomon Digivolve to..."
"BIRDRAMON!"
"Gabumon Digivolve to..."
"GARURUMON!"
"Tentomon Digivolve to..."
"KABUTERIMON!"
"You know I REALLY don't think you need so many Digimon. Especially since they're so big!" exclaims Sam.
"But you have to admit it's kinda cool," remarks Misty.
"I guess I don't have to ride Charizard," says Ash with relief (Charizard was giving him a VERY angry look when Ash said that he had to ride him again).
"Get on!" says Elementroar in a little like a growl, at least in Team Rocket's eyes.
They hesistantly get on to Elementroar and Sam, on S.K, instructs them from the side.
"Just grip real tight with your legs and lean forward and you'll be fine!" she asures them but that does not lessen their fear.
"Now, where do we go?" Elementroar asks his riders.
"Um...um...Team Rocket HQ is near Viridian City so I guess that's, that's..." thinks James.
"It's just straight ahead!" shouts Ash, alight on Metalgreymon with Tai and Brock and Pikachu on his shoulder. He points in front of them.
"We've been to Viridian City before, we're make sure Team Rocket doesn't get us on a wild goose chase!" adds Misty, alight on Birdramon with Sora, Mimi and of course, Togepi.
"All right! Let's go!" Elementroar gives a roar and pounces forward. All the Pokemon and Digimon follow in his wake, flying and running.
"I'm impressed, summoner!" he shouts to Sam, the only one really keeping up with him.
"Why?" Sam asks back. She was exilirated! She loved riding.
"Your Arcanine can actually keep up with me. You trained him well!"
"Nah! He's just a great Pokemon!" shouts back Sam.
"ROWF!" barks S.K in reply.
"Ha ha ha!" laughs Elementroar.
"S-s-t-top l-l-a-aughing..." stutters Team Rocket, in pure horror.
"So, this is Team Rocket main HQ," whispers Ash to Misty.
They were hiding in the brush close to a large building, hidden in an unknown part of the Viridian forest. It looked harmless enough but they knew better. The Digimon had already reverted back to their Rookie forms and were waiting around with the humans for Elementroar to decide what to do next. Team Rocket had been rebounded and gagged by vines and leaves and were struggling in a corner.
"Since we have to enter the building, I guess the easiest way is to attack it and hope they run out," suggests Matt.
"No, that is risky and the building must have a security system that can even destroy the Digimon. I believe I have a better plan," Elementroar's horn starts to glow deep blue and dark green.
Almost immediately, screams and shouts can be heard and suddenly, huge trees and vines burst through the roof of the biulding, crushing the roof. Men and women and even some teenagers, some clad in uniforms, others in casual clothes, flee through the doors of the building. Suddenly, a huge gush of water bursts through the front war, washing Team Rocketeers right off their feet and out the building.
Most of the Team Rocketeers run away quickly but some regain their composure quickly and stare in dismay at their wrecked headquarters.
"Hey! Who are you kids?" a gruff voice demands.
A large Team Rocket executive draws out a Pokeball, "I don't know who you did it but I bet capturing those Pokemon you have there will bring in enough cash to get HQ back up. Rocketeers! Get over here!"
Immediately, black Team Rocketeers gather at the executive's side and brandish their Pokeballs menancingly.
"Digi-destined, go ahead," says Elementroar.
"All right! Let's go!" shouts Tai.
All the Digimon Digivolved and the Team Rocketeers, staring at a giant wolf, dinosaur, bird, insect, cactus, walrus and the most shocking of all, an angel. Their bravado betray them and they flee, screaming that God had finally come for them.
"Well, that was easy," remarks Angemon while the others sweatdrop.
This time, the Digimon stay as Champions as the children and Elementroar enter the building.
"Be careful, who knows what my attacks have done to the buliding. The floor does not seem very stable, we must be careful," warns Elementroar.
Irony must have struck them straight in the face, just then the floor gives away and even Elementroar is taken by surprise.
They plunge into eternal darkness, down and down...
"Oh! Where are we?" asks Joe, straightening his glasses.
"I see you have finally come, Digi-destined,"
"Who was that?" shouts Mimi, looking around in the subterranian chamber.
The others also look fearfully around, glancing here and there. Elementroar growls.
"Are you the one who created the dimensional rift?" roars Elementroar, his roar bouncing of the walls.
"Yes, I was," replys the ominous voice. It is somewhere between a hiss and had a denseness to it, like it surrounds them.
"Do you know what you have done? No matter the reason, I demand you give me the device you use or I shall kill you if I must," growls Elementroar.
"I'm afraid I can't do that. You see, I destroyed that device long ago for I don't have the intention to go back,"
"Go back? A Digimon! Show yourslf to us now!"
"If you wish,"
The darkness around them seem to collect in front of them. The darkness swirls and spreads across from the ground to the top, taking form. Slowly, it solidifies, taking form. It soon takes the slender shape of a woman, clad in black leather, her face half covered by a mask. Where one hand is elegant, the other is a huge, grosteque claw that ends in tips that are deep red, as if dipped in blood. Tattered wings spring out of her back and bats hover and disappear, then reappear somwhere else, dissolving into darkness then reforming from it again. She stood a giant, her head just touching the roof of the cavern. By then, the Digi-destined had no problems recognizing who it is.
"Ladydevimon?"
"But I thought, I thought, who? Who destroyed Ladydevimon? Why can't I remember!?" shouts Tai, his mind a sudden total blank.
"Can't you remember your own sister, Tai?" laughs Ladydevimon.
"My sister? Kari? How how could I forget her!?" screams Tai in dismay.
"Don't worry, it's simply an aftereffect of the chips I implanted in your heads,"
"So you did do it! I thought Angewomon destroyed you and we were going after Piedmon!" shouts Sora.
"THAT Ladydevimon? Oh, you are so wrong! I'm not THAT Ladydevimon though you did fight me back a long time ago," she says with a thick sense of malice in her words.
She glares at Angemon and Angemon sees the truth.
"That is Devimon!"
"Devimon? But you destroyed him before!" says T.K perplexed.
"Obviously we did not. What's more, he has Digivolved to the Ultimate Stage, Ladydevimon,""Yes, I'm glad you remember Angemon. For long I suffered to regain my strength to one day destroy you and make you suffer as you did me. But I was weak. I had reverted back to a Botamon and by the time I was a Betamon, I was near death and was about to be deleted. Imagine my luck when a rift appeared in front of me. Of course at that time, I had no idea what it was but I took a chance and was about to step through it. But that fool summoner suddenly appeared out of nowhere, trying to close the rift. Ha! I was already through it, but that idotic man struck me with his sword and the tip was stabbed into me. The tip broke off when I went through and that thing stayed embedded in me,"
"Summoner? But I thought I was..." stutters Sam.
"That was your great-great-great grandfather, the last person to summon me," explains Elementroar but with a strange hint of sadness.
"I was thought to be a rare Pokemon and brought here. That fool Giovanni," Ladydevimon unclutches her giant hand to reveal the lifeless form of Giovanni. She casually tosses him to the ground. Joe, Matt and Brock immediately rush to help him and are relieved to find him still breathing.
"He was greedy for power, played right into my hands! He created the chips and after analyzing the tip of the sword, created an artificial device to cross dimensions. I used the chips and ta-daa! Everything worked as planned *except*," she glares at Sam.
"YOU! I never anticipated the appearance of another Summoner,"
"Wait! Why did you make us forget Kari? What have you done to her!" Tai demands.
"Ah, yes. Well, let me show you," Ladydevimon raises both her normal hand and her clawed hand to her chest. She pushes into her own flesh and winces but soon she smiles an evil smile and pulls back the skin to reveal a cavity.
"Oh-my-God," gasps Misty, clutching Ash for support.
Inside her stomach is a giant semi-transparent, red chamber, connected to her by tubes embedded into the flesh at the side. Inside the chamber, it is half-filled with liquid and hanging in the middle is a young girl. Suddenly, electricity sparks and shocks her, causing her to cry out in pain.
"Kari...KARI!" Tai tries to save his little sister but is held back.
"Kari..." Sora, Mimi and Misty are in tears and T.K is sniffling. Matt averts his head while Joe, amazingly, looks plain angry. Izzy has a face of disgust and Brock frowns in anger and disgust, making him look just like his father (okay, he already LOOKS like his father but now, more so).
"You let her go!" shouts Ash, pointing at Ladydevimon.
"PIKACHU!"
The other Digimon are like mirror images of their human partners though Agumon is more calm.
"You monster!" growls Elementroar, pawing the ground.
Sam doesn't say anything but is in a silent rage. Her fists are clutched and her head bowed and her whole body is shaking with fury.
"I kidnapped Kari when you were all...not yourselves. Unfortunately, Gatomon got free of the chip and attacked me but she was short work. She met the same fate as well. I needed their energy to make myself truely invincible,"
"We'll free of your damn chips now! We'll going to destroy you once and for all!"
"As if you can beat me! I have increased my strenght more than tenfold thanks to Giovanni's research and I have the power of the child and Digimon of the Light at my whim! How can you hope to defeat me!?" Ladydevimon throws back her head and laughs horribly, like the croak of a withered hag.
"STOP!"
"What?" Ladydevimon says in surprise.
"You say you are invincible, but you lie! Nothing is invincible! Everything has a weakness! And you moronic little bitch have just shown it to us! How "invincible" can a stupid, idotic, crap-for-brains trollup like you EVER hope to be invincible!" Sam retorts, pretty much shocking everyone present, including herself, when she used the swear words.
"You...imprudent...fool..." stutters Ladydevimon, obviously quite affected by the insults.
"FLY!" ghostly wings spring from her back and Sam flys straight at Ladydevimon.
"Summoner, NO!" shouts Elementroar but is too late to stop her.
"I'LL KILL YOU!"
Ladydevimon swings out her clawed hand that moves as quick as lightging and grabs Sam out of mid-air.
"ARGH!"
Slowly, Ladydevimon crushes her, enjoying the thrill of killing the insulting brat and lengthing the suffering and pain as much as possible.
"Tele...teleport..." Sam says weakly, gasping for air as she feels her insides collasping.
But nothing happens.
"What's...wrong..." she cries in dismay.
"Your mark! It is covered! The mark must be in contact with air, water, light or earth! It can't work without them," shouts Elementroar.
"Ha ha ha! Not so tough now, aren't you, brat? I'll love torturing you longer but I must get rid of the others too. And I don't like delays," Ladydevimon clunches her claw for the final squeeze.
"NO!" roars Elementroar.
He flies up and swings back his head, "ELEMENTAL SLASH!"
The multi-coloured bolt hits Ladydevimon dead-on but dissipates on contact.
"Ha ha! I gave myself full resistance to any type! Say goodbye to your precious Summoner,"
'If my present form cannot fight then...'
"What?!" says Ladydevimon in surprise as bright light encompasses Elementroar and covers his form.
"Look at Elementroar!" cries Misty.
"If you ask me, I think he's..."
"Evolving." finishes Ash, staring in awe.
"But into what?" asks Brock.
