And another new character! You'll find out once you hear how he speaks (hint hint…). I don't want to give too much, ON TO THE STORY!!!

Chapter 5: Kiss from a Rose

'One of those idiots better delete Beelzebumon,' the ultimate dark one thought as he lounged in his dark throne room, 'if he realizes his true power, all of us are doomed.'

"Sir," a white digimon walked into the dark room, the dark one quickly turned around, "may I speak with you?"

"God dammit!" the dark one yelled as he got up, "what the hell did I say to you, Yashamon, AND the others about coming in here without talking to me OR knocking?"

"Sorry sir," Yashamon bowed, "I was just asking if sending Zanbamon is such a good idea."

The dark one sat down, "are we a little envious Yashamon?"

"No sir, its just Zanbamon is a little questionable." Yashamon said.

"What do you mean?" the dark one asked.

"Quite simply," Yashamon stabbed his swords into the ground, "he seems like he has less…strength than us other ones."

"Hmmm," the dark one thought aloud, "no, it's not possible."

"What?" Yashamon looked at his master, "sir, what do you mean?"

"Because," the dark one sighed, "no, you will learn over time, now leave."

"Sir…" Yashamon said, but was cut off by his master.

"No more!" the dark one yelled, "no get out!"

"But sir," Yashamon said, "I need to know what you mean…"

"What did I say?" the dark one yelled, "now pay the consequences for not obeying your master."

The dark one stood up, Yashamon got into a defensive stance. The dark one seemed like he would leap but suddenly disappeared in his own darkness. Yashamon looked around, but then the dark one showed up behind the Demon digimon and grabbed him by the neck. He raised him high in the air and raised his arm for a strike, but Yashamon also disappeared and found himself behind the dark one.

"How the hell can you do that?" the dark one said as he turned around to face his own soldier of darkness.

"Sir, with all due respect, you know nothing about me," Yashamon said, "I will go now."

"Hmph," The dark one grunted as he teleported back to his throne, sat down, and laid his chin on his fist, "maybe I don't know as much as I thought I did, but one thing is sure, you aren't as much as you know, my dear Yashamon."

'You'll have it…' Yashamon thought to himself as he closed the door to the dark throne room.

Volcamon watched as the Yashamon walked calmly away from the dark throne room, "Stronger than us? Hmmm…"

~*~

"I should have believed what I believed before Cris," Beelzebumon dragged his feet across the sand, "once you start to believe in love, it will shoot you down in your prime."

Beelzebumon looked to his side and saw a few desert shrubs. He quickly pulled his guns and fired at the shrubs, totally destroying the shrubs.

"God damn love! God damn Cris!" Beelzebumon yelled as he fired his guns randomly, not caring if he ever hit anything.

"Hath, thou cease!" a voice said out of nowhere. It was a strange voice that sounded like an old English accent and he seemed to speak like it was the Elizabethan Era, "Ye shall delete I if thy not cease."

"What?" Beelzebumon turned around and saw a small brown dog-looking small rabbit.

"Shall thy introduce?" the small dog-bunny bowed, "Young Prince noble Lopmon."

"Introduce…oh, none of your business." Beelzebumon turned.

"Ye shall be rude to a noble prince?" Lopmon folded his arms, "thou shall not be tolerated."

"I have no idea what the hell you're saying, but if you want a fight," Beelzebumon pulled his twin guns, "I will gladly fight."

"I do not wish to fight thee," Lopmon said, "Ye hath on an expedition?"

"I'm not on an expedition." Beelzebumon answered coldly.

"Is that so, angry one?" Lopmon asked, "Than why thou a kind soul, such as thee, must attack while slurring a female's name?"

"Like I said," Beelzebumon raised his voice, "none of your business!"

"I see thou thee is in love," Lopmon folded his arms, "with thy one dubbed Cris?"

"Chrysanthemum," Beelzebumon looked down, "but what do you care about my problems? You were only here to stop me from shooting blindly, and that benefited yourself."

"I was protecting thou self too," Lopmon said, "for thy weapon is both a threat to himself as well as others."

"Enough of your bullshit," Beelzebumon said, annoyed by the dog-bunny, "I need to get on with my life without Chrysanthemum, she was just in my way anyway."

"Art thou loyal to this Chrysanthemum?" Lopmon asked, "if thy truly love her, ye shall go after and re-capture your love."

"I don't want to, and if I did it would be no use," Beelzebumon put his guns away, "she's possessed or brainwashed or something."

"Young lad," Lopmon said, "love is thy power of a million Tamers."

"I hate the Tamers," Beelzebumon said, "I wouldn't care to have a power as strong as theirs. I have my own power."

"Thy cold words from a digimon," Lopmon shook his head, "ones not blessed with ones love is truly missing out."

"Its not like I need love," Beelzebumon said, "its just another emotion, like hate, angst, anger…and we all get over it eventually."

"True, but it thou seems thy needs that emotion," Lopmon walked closer to the digimon, "like thy needs hate and anger to quarrel, or angst for sadness. And sadness is needed for happiness. Thy love from thee Chrysanthemum is needed for you young lad."

"Whatever," Beelzebumon turned to leave again but then turned back to face Lopmon, "how would you know about love?"

"Experience, young lad," Lopmon said, "for thy heart can sense a heartbroken one."

"Will you help me get her back," Beelzebumon asked, "I need to get her back…"

"O thy powers of love is strong," Lopmon smiled, "for thy name of love, I will embark with thee on this expedition of love."

"Alright," Beelzebumon turned, "but stop calling me lad."

"Agreed, knight." Lopmon called Beelzebumon a "knight." Beelzebumon turned around.

"Why are you calling me knight now?" Beelzebumon stopped.

"For reasons of thou own," Lopmon said, "thee a knight on a conquest of love."

"Oh whatever, lets go," Beelzebumon turned, "but I will warn you now, it may get ugly."

"For love, any price must be paid." Lopmon said as the two digimon set out to find Chrysanthemum.

~*~

The two flower-pixie digimon were in the middle of a forest, surrounded with different exotic flowers of the digital world. One watched the other one with a grin on her face.

"So you are my slave now are we?" Ivy looked at the zombie-like Chrysanthemum.

"Yes ma'am," Chrysanthemum monotonously answered, "I will obey."

"Good," Ivy's smile disappeared, "then why didn't you delete Beelzebumon!"

"Sorry, ma'am," Chrysanthemum said, "It won't happen again."

"Damn straight it won't happen again," The Rosemon looked at Chrysanthemum again. She suddenly felt something strange. The Rose digimon felt a strange feeling, and she looked at Chrysanthemum differently, "since you are my little pet now, I will call you Cris-Chan."

"I am at your command." Chrysanthemum responded dumbly.

"Good," the Rose digimon walked up to Chrysanthemum and grabbed her by the face, "so will you be a good assassin and destroy your boyfriend?"

"Yes, ma'am." Chrysanthemum answered.

"Good," Ivy smiled as she leaned closer to the brainwashed Lillymon. She started to whisper in her ear, "Because I want to be the only love in your life." She pulled Chrysanthemum in for a kiss, but Ivy then realized what she was doing and broke away.

'W…what the hell am I thinking? We're both females, but I seem to find myself attracted to my own slave…Probably got it from that idiot Devimon and his little crush. Damn you Devimon…' Ivy thought. "L…let's go." Rosemon stuttered. Rosemon blushed as she tried to figure out what just happened. Chrysanthemum stared blankly to nothing.

The two digimon flew away. Ivy was blushing heavily, when she found out a new feeling she has never felt before. Both were on a mission to delete Beelzebumon.

~*~

Zanbamon trotted out of the castle and as he left the castle grounds, Volcamon stopped him.

"Hey, Zanbamon," Volcamon, with his deep voice, stopped his colleague, "something is suspicious with Yashamon."

"Don't you think I know that already?" Zanbamon turned.

"More than you know," Volcamon started, "you see, I heard him talk to the Dark One and he was questioning if you were strong enough to take care of Beelzebumon. He thinks both you and I are weaker than him."

"Who the hell does he think he is?" Zanbamon pulled out a large gold sword, "is he TRYING to get deleted?"

"I don't know," Volcamon looked up at their large castle, "but I'll keep an eye on him while you are on you're mission."

"Yeah," Zanbamon said, "someone has to keep that nut-case in check. When I get back, we'll have to teach him a lesson."

"I'll keep an eye on him. He does seem suspicious." Volcamon said.

"Alright, I'm off." Zanbamon said as he trotted away.

Volcamon made his way back into the dark castle. Inside, he heard a voice from above him. He looked up to see Yashamon sitting on a rafter with his arms folded and his swords stabbed into the plank of wood.

"So you think you know?" Yashamon said.

"What business do you have talking to the Dark One anyway?" Volcamon asked angrily.

"For my business." Yashamon simply replied.

"Is it to upstage me or Zanbamon?" Volcamon interrogated harshly.

"This isn't a popularity contest," Yashamon said, "I have my reasons for talking to the Dark One."

"Sure, I heard you talk to the Dark One thinking you are stronger than Zanbamon," Volcamon said, "I seriously doubt that."

"Don't doubt anything you have no idea about," Yashamon stood up and grabbed his swords, "now if you excuse me, I must take care of some of my business." Yashamon disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Humph," Volcamon grunted as he turned.

~*~

The two warriors, Beelzebumon and Lopmon, continued their journey to find Chrysanthemum and to destroy the Union of Darkness. They came across a large canyon, where they walked into it. It was a surprisingly large canyon.

"So where thee hail from?" Lopmon asked Beelzebumon.

"I don't know." Beelzebumon said, "Don't know much about my past. That's why Chrysanthemum is important, she is part of my past."

"Ah, so thee love serves two purposes." Lopmon said.

"So why are you traveling?" Beelzebumon asked.

"Reasons that I cannot reveal yet." Lopmon said, "but if thee sticks around long, thee will discover."

"Yeah sure," Beelzebumon said, "well, we should almost be there, probably after this canyon…"

Suddenly, a force to their side attacked the two travelers. Both turned to see a digimon, who seemed to be a horse, but they were not sure. It was Zanbamon.

"Beelzebumon," Zanbamon pointed his large sword to Beelzebumon's head, "your head will be mine."

Beelzebumon smirked. "Looks like I just found a fight. You can try, but I doubt you could catch me with that bulky horse body of yours."

"Think again," Zanbamon hunched. Suddenly, he powered up and he jumped off the horse, which became a surge of electricity and his large gold sword absorbed the energy. He smiled, "much better. Now your head will be on a silver platter for my master. And maybe I'll take your little friend's head too." He pointed to Lopmon.

"I shall be deleted with honor! Not by a scoundrel!" Lopmon yelled.

"Alright, get ready to fight, horse boy!" Beelzebumon pulled out his guns.

"I shall assist thee knight." Lopmon said as he evolved to Antiramon.

"How did you get to ultimate already?" Beelzebumon asked real quickly.

"It lies in my blood," Antiramon explained, "My noble blood is rich in power and honor. Its thy blessed by the Gods."

"I don't care what the hell you two are now," Zanbamon waved his large sword, "Prison Gate of Beheading!" A large constraint tried to constrain the two warriors, but they moved out of the way.

"Treasure Axe!" Antiramon attacked with two large blades.

"Double Impact!" Beelzebumon attacked with two strong shots from his guns.

"You think your pathetic attacks will do anything to me?" Zanbamon slashed his swords and the two attacks were voided, "I have the power of darkness, it is unstoppable."

"I doubt thy beliefs," Antiramon pointed his blades at the dark demon, "ones blessed with darkness shall pay for their sins in time."

"Not if darkness can destroy the ones to punish the sinner," Zanbamon stood in a fighting position with his large gold sword, "and seems like you are trying to be my punisher. Prepare to be beheaded."

Beelzebumon and Antiramon were ready for all Zanbamon's attacks. The Demon man rushed at the two digimon with his large sword. Antiramon jumped to one side while Beelzebumon jumped to the other side of Zanbamon. Zanbamon looked up to see the two warriors try to attack him with the same attacks as before. He quickly jumped away as the two warriors landed on the ground to regroup. "Cross Slash!" Zanbamon slashed his sword once down, then from left to right. The two large slashes formed a large cross of dark power, which went rushing towards the two warriors. They quickly dodged it and were back on the offensive. Antiramon attacked with "Treasure Axe" again and was successful. He hit Zanbamon, but Zanbamon was barely fazed by the attack. "No one can destroy the power of darkness!" Zanbamon yelled as he attacked with "Cross Slash" again. He hit Antiramon and Antiramon went flying into a wall.

Beelzebumon looked at his fallen colleague, "Damn," Beelzebumon yelled, "you're going to pay for that! Darkness Claw!"

Zanbamon quickly jumped out of the way, "I don't know what the Dark One is talking about," Zanbamon laughed arrogantly, "You're nothing! Cross Slash!"

The attack successfully connected and it sent the Satan Digimon flying into a wall on the side of a canyon. Zanbamon walked up to the fallen Beelzebumon and stepped on his neck and dragged him to only reveal Beelzebumon's neck and head. "Prepare to be beheaded! This will be my finest victory!" Zanbamon raised his gold sword into the air and before he could swing down, something happened.

"Flower Cannon!" A yell came and a large blast sent Zanbamon to the ground before the sword could strike down.

"He's our deletion, horse!" Rosemon yelled.

"What the hell!" Zanbamon yelled, "I'll take your head after Beelzebumon!" He got up again and tried to behead him again, but once again, he was stopped, but this time, by a tackling Ivy.

"Cris-Chan!" Ivy yelled, "Complete your mission!"

"Yes Ma'am," Chrysanthemum flew down to the unconscious Beelzebumon. She aimed her Flower Cannon at Beelzebumon's head. Suddenly she had a flashback.

*****Flashback*****

Beelzebumon grabbed his chest and fell to his knees. He finally fell face first to the dusty digital ground. "Why Cris?" was the last words he mumbled as he fell in and out of consciousness. He was conscious for a few more moments, but fell out of consciousness.

Chrysanthemum's arms collapsed and she dropped her flower cannon. She broke down and started crying. "I…I must delete him, but I can't…Dammit, I need to but I can't! Why can't I do it?! It's my mission, my responsibility, but I can't do it!" Chrysanthemum yelled in frustration as she started pounding the ground. She slowly rose to her feet and she dragged herself to Beelzebumon, who was unconscious by the strong Flower Cannon concussion blast. "Why can't I do it? Why can't I delete you?" She started kicking the unconscious Beelzebumon, not hard, but in frustration. She then fell to the ground as she looked at the unconscious Satan digimon, "I can hate you for killing my family, friends, burning my village, but the thing I hate the most is that I don't hate you at all…"

*****End Of Flashback*****

"Can't hate you at all…" Chrysanthemum mumbled as she pointed her Flower Cannon to the rubble and blasted it away. She shed a tear when she remembered what she has done to him in the past. She suddenly fainted and lay there beside the unconscious Beelzebumon.

~*~

"Its our deletion! Now leave before I delete you!" Ivy yelled at the Demon man Digimon, not noticing that Chrysanthemum became unconscious.

"Hell no! My master sent me on a mission and I will finish it! What do you know? You're only a creation of that dumb ass Devimon. " Zanbamon retaliated.

"I am higher than that bastard! Its your deletion, horse boy!" Ivy pulled out a sword, "Roses Rapier!"

"I'll have your head." Zanbamon said as he attacked.

The two digimon started fighting. It was like a classic sword fight: Ivy swung left, Zanbamon blocked, she swung low, and he blocked and swung high. The two dueling digimon continued their sword fight, each one being countered by the other one's movements. Their fighting seemed beautiful, yet deadly to one of them. The two digimon interlocked their swords and sparks came from both. "You got nothing! Your just artificial!" Zanbamon yelled. "I'm more than you think! I'm more than ANYONE thinks!" Ivy yelled back as they broke their grapple and jumped away from each other.

"Why don't you just turn me into a slave like that Lillymon over there!" Zanbamon yelled.

"Because," The Rosemon blushed a little with the thought of Chrysanthemum, "I…I have my reasons. I just have to delete you!"

"More foolish than I thought," Zanbamon smirked, "your head is now truly mine!"

Zanbamon jumped towards Ivy who quickly moved, tripped the Demon man, and placed the tip of her Rapier right beneath his head, on his neck. "Looks like I can take YOUR head." Ivy was about to stab into his neck when suddenly a blurry character quickly passed by the Rosemon, hitting her and sending her to the ground.

"Never doubt something you have no idea about," the voice of the character said. It was Yashamon, "I knew you would need my help."

"Yashamon," Zanbamon growled, "I never needed your help."

Yashamon was silent as he quickly left before anything else happened.

"Bastard," Zanbamon said as he turned to Ivy, "now for my revenge." He raised his sword high into the air and was about to strike down, when suddenly a blast of energy struck the demon man in the head, knocking him unconscious and sending him to the ground.

Ivy looked to where to the blast came from, to see Chrysanthemum and her cannon. "Cris-Chan…"

'W…why did I help her…' Chrysanthemum though. She just woke up as the old Chrysanthemum and instinctively protected the Rosemon. "Wha…"

"Cris-Chan," Ivy walked up to her, "you truly do love me."

"Wha…" Chrysanthemum was cut off by the Rosemon's kiss. She still didn't know what was going on, but she didn't have the strength to stop it.

Beelzebumon started to stir and he sat up, and the first thing he saw was Ivy passionately kissing Chrysanthemum. All he could do was watch, with large eyes and a lot of confusion.

A/N: Controversy, love triangles, and Yuri (FemalexFemale) relationships…hmmm, I am experimenting a lot more than I thought ^_^. Oh well, in my mind, the story is getting more and more interesting ^^. I'm sorry it took a while for this chapter, it took me a while to write the Lopmon and Antiramon lines, trying to keep him in character as his original. One note, to keep myself from confusing…myself, I will consider Antylamon the female version of Lopmon (like in the dubbed Tamers, Suzy's Lopmon and Antylamon) and Antiramon the male, old school English original Lopmon Deva like in the original non-dubbed version. So that should take care of some confusion. There were also hints of what may have been a secret crush that Devimon had on Chrysanthemum. I always wanted to throw that somewhere in here and it tied in with this when I decided to do the little Yuri thing and the love triangle. Thanks for reading, and like always PLEASE R&R! And if you have any questions or comments, feel free to e-mail me at dexstrosity2@hotmail.com like always. THANKS!!!
