Chapter 13: Apocalymon vs. How Many?
Apocalymon had turned the younger digidestined and their partners into data. As they looked back to when their digimon first digivolved to their ultimate stage, their crests were reactivated inside of them and their digimon digivolved all the way to the ultimate and mega level. While this was happening, their older selves along with digimon and children looked down into the large fissure.
"I was hoping we would never have to fight again, but I guess that bubble burst." Gatomon said. The digidestined held their digivices in their hands.
"Just like old times!" Tai said.
"Ready?" Asked Matt. Everyone nodded. All the digidestines' digimon digivolved to their ultimate and mega forms.
"Our turn!" Andoru yelled looking at Koromon. The children also had digivices but were the newer models like TK's and Kari's.
"I never thought we would need these things." Kado said looking at his.
"Hey there's a first time for everything!" Said Makoto excitedly.
"Koromon digivolve to Agumon!"
"Tsunomon digivolve to Gabumon!"
"Yokomon digivolve to Biyomon!"
"Bukamon digivolve to Gomamon!"
"Tanemon digivolve to Palmon!"
"Motimon digivolve to Tentomon!"
"Tokomon digivolve to Patamon!" The digimon digivolved again reaching champion, but not having crests or Azulongmon's power, they couldn't go any further. Everyone jumped through the opening and found themselves in darkness.
"We're back!" Adult Tai said. Just then the younger digidestined with their digimon appeared.
"We did it, we reassembled ourselves!" Cried Izzy. The younger digidestined gasped as they saw their future children with eight adults and sixteen digimon.
"What's going on here? Who are these people?" Asked Tai. The adult Tai looked back and smiled.
"What people? Wait, how did you get back?!" Apocalymon asked.
"We just believed in ourselves, now back to our original question, who are these people?" Tai asked again.
"Believe it or not, we come from the year 2027." Older Matt said. The younger digidestined and their digimon gasped.
"That's us 28 years from now?!" Young Tai asked. He chuckled nervously.
"Hey I finally cut my hair!" He said.
"Well for a 38 year old woman I don't look that bad, then again, I never look bad." Mimi said.
"How do they know we're them?" Asked Adult Sora. Mara and Ariyo smiled nervously.
"We kinda told them that we were from the future and that we were their kids, isn't that funny?" Mara explained to the adults.
"Yeah, ha ha." Adult Kari said sarcastically. They all sighed.
"Enough of this idle talk, it's time to fight!" Cried adult Tai.
"Wow, deja vu." Said adult Kari. Apocalymon unleashed his death claw attack. Many of the digimon dodged them, but the older MagnaAngemon and Angewomon were caught. They reverted back to Patamon and Gatomon.
"Sorry TK but we're not as fast as we used to be." Older Patamon said.
"Lets face it, we're not young anymore." Gatomon said. Younger TK and Kari eyed them.
"That's okay." Adult TK said.
"Hey why don't we try armor digivolving and see how that works out against Apocalymon?" Adult Kari suggested.
"Okay!" Younger TK, Kari and the other younger digidestined stared at them confused.
"Digi-armor energize!" Adult TK yelled.
"Patamon armor digivolve to Pegasusmon, galloping hope!"
"Digi-armor energize!" Adult Kari said.
"Gatomon armor digivolve to Nefertimon, the angel of light!" The younger digidestined along with their digimon were in awe. A claw headed towards the armored digimon.
"Star shower!" one of the claws vanished as it was hit but a few more had popped up in it's place. Adult Kari looked to her younger self.
"Lets work together!" Young Kari nodded.
"Rosetta stone!"
"Celestial arrow!" The arrow shot through the stone, it broke into pieces and hit each of the claws headed towards them. Young and older Kari cheered. Dakedo smiled.
"Lightning claw!" His Gatomon yelled and destroyed a claw.
"Hand of fate!" Hiroshi's Angemon cried and he made a claw disappear as well. Every digimon helped out in destroying the claws and soon all that was left was Apocalymon. Both the younger and older Tai and Matt ordered their digimon to attack.
"Metal wolf claw!" The two Metalgarurumon cried.
"Terra force!" Both Wargreymon yelled. Apocalymon vanished but wasn't destroyed just yet.
"Why is it that your attacks are causing double the damage they usually do?" Apocalymon asked.
"That's our little secret!" Matt answered.
"Well you may have beaten me, but I won't go down alone; I'll take you and both world's with me using my ultimate attack!"
"What?!" Tai asked. The older digidestined knew what was to come but never lost hope. They stood aside pulling their children with them, the digidestined from this time needed to believe in themselves and do this on their own.
"Total annihilation!" The young digidestined gasped not knowing what would happen. 'He's gonna destroy everything!' Matt thought. 'I should have made out my will!' Joe thought. 'I'm too good-looking to go!' Mimi said to herself. 'I want my mommy!' TK said in his mind. 'There must be a solution.' Izzy thought. 'We won't give up!' Matt said to himself. 'We're stronger than he is!' Tai told himself. 'We're a team!' Joe said in his mind. 'It's destiny!' Sora said to herself. 'After all,' Kari told herself.
"We're the digidestined!" They all cried. Their hope caused their digivices to react and were able to contain the attack by making a large box out of light that was unleashed from the digivices. It then burst without harming anything. The older digidestined and their children smiled proudly while the younger digidestined were left flabbergasted.
