Reflecting Shadows: Black WarGreymon vs. Mewtwo

Round One

By D1

Black WarGreymon glared menacingly at the new creature that now opposed him. " Who are you to decide the fate of these humans!?" he snarled.

Who are you to execute them? the being countered. This world is not of your own. Leave this material plain at once.

" I do not, and will not take orders from a mere Poke`mon! This land and all who dwell in it will have to just deal with me until I find my answers; and you shall not stop me!" With that, Black WarGreymon hurled a medium sized Terra Destroyer at the new comer, but Mewtwo simply pointed his hand, and the attack was hurled aside without any trouble.

If fighting is your wish, then I have no choice but to oblige it. You shall soon learn that I am no mere Poke`mon. At this time you may pop the 1st Movie CD into your CD player and play track 16 (Brother my Brother).

" Raaarrrrrrrrrr!" the vicious battle cry of Black WarGreymon echoed throughout Mt. Moon as he charged strait ahead, ready to take out the challenger with a swipe of his gauntlet. Mewtwo glowed with awesome psychic energy before unleashing the full force of his Psychic attack upon Black WarGreymon. To his grim realization however, the attack had no effect on the creature, and now it was too late. The metallic armored claws of Black WarGreymon slammed into Mewtwo, sending the Poke`mon hurtling towards the ground. SMASH! The super-clone landed hard on the rocks, sending dust into the air.

Severely hurt and bloodied, Mewtwo struggled to his feet. That creature…my powers had no effect, he must be a Dark type! He though grimly.

" I must admit, you are strong. Not many things can still move after I deliver a punch like that." The dark dragon warrior sneered. " Tell me, what is your name so that I may put it on your tombstone."

The few who know of my existence call me Mewtwo; and it will be the last name you will ever hear if I can help it! Though it was true that psychic attacks wouldn't work on his enemy, Mewtwo used the bought time to use his Recover, letting him return to full health. I must rely on other attacks.

" Take a good look at the scene around you Mewtwo, it will be the last sight you will ever see!" with that, Black WarGreymon dived towards the ground for another assault.

You will find that I won't be defeated so easily! Eyes glowing, Mewtwo harnessed his ability to use a variety of other type attacks. Black WarGreymon was suddenly shocked to find his self-fighting to stay oriented against a pounding and unrelenting Blizzard, generated just by Mewtwo's energy. While the Digimon struggled, Mewtwo absorbed as much energy from the golden, life giving sun as possible. An instant later, Solarbeam shot forth from his hands and struck Black WarGreymon with incredible, intense force, sending him sprawling through the air. Pressing his advantage, Mewtwo unleashed a burning Fire Spin that completely surrounded Black WarGreymon and trapped him in a sphere of fire. But it didn't last for long.

" Dragon Slasher!" the Digimon roared. With a swipe of his claw, his fiery prison was destroyed. But the attack had other effects too; I shockwave of fire was generated from his claws and repelled Mewtwo violently. With Mewtwo down, Black WarGreymon struck harder. As his claws reached out to tear away the Poke`mon's throat, Mewtwo suddenly grabbed back and the two now locked hands, trying to out-shove and overpower the other. Surprisingly, Mewtwo's arms were far more muscular than they seemed. Then, with surprising physical speed and power, Mewtwo lashed out his thick tail as a scorpion would and struck Black WarGreymon across the face, sending the Digimon tripping. This was followed by a direct hit to Black WarGreymon's chest with a Hyperbeam. But the combo momentarily reduced Mewtwo's energy, giving Black WarGreymon enough time to recover from the assault and strike back. In lightning fast movements, he delivered a series of powerful martial art punches and kicks that battered the Poke`mon until with final blow, hammered Mewtwo into the ground. Black WarGreymon flew in for the kill that he planned to deliver with one swift, Mega Claw. However, he did not anticipate that Mewtwo had allowed himself to be thrashed so badly. Every blow that Black WarGreymon delivered aided Mewtwo's Rage attack and powered him up. When the control spire Digimon assaulted once more, Mewtwo combined Rage with the Fighting type move of Counter, and hurled Black WarGreymon into the base of Mt. Moon, sending dust flying. Mewtwo finished it with a machinegun volley of Shadowballs.

" Black Tornado!" Pointing his claws down and spinning dangerously, Black WarGreymon erupted from the dust cloud and charged Mewtwo in a shadowy cyclone, but the Poke`mon raised his Barrier just in time. Try as he might, Black WarGreymon could not bore through the bubble of blue energy. Mewtwo's psychic powers may not have been effective offensively, but defensively, they still had their uses. And Mewtwo lived by the motto; 'the best defense is a good offense.' The clone powered his bubble straight at Black WarGreymon's tornado and slammed into it. Then the Digimon echoed the process. Back and forth they struck each other like bumper-cars; dangerous bumper-cars. Every time the attacks struck each other, a pulse of destructive energy would blast the landscape. Though hurt, Mewtwo would not give up and continued to power up his Barrier. A wounded Black WarGreymon also didn't back down.

I cannot continue this for long. Mewtwo realized. Just as the Black tornado came hurtling again, Mewtwo dropped his Barrier and used Teleport to avoid the attack as it went spiraling by.

Ceasing his assault, Black WarGreymon turned and glared at Mewtwo, who just stood there motionless. What is he up to? No matter, I shall destroy him with one more blow. " It is time you died!" With that, Black WarGreymon flew directly at Mewtwo; head on, claws pointed.

This was just what Mewtwo had been waiting for. Suddenly, he summoned all his powers and concentrated them on one, large, powerful Shadowball that was larger than himself. The sheer energy of it blasted Black WarGreymon back and pinned him against a rock. It ends now! As the sphere of ghostly energy plowed the ground towards Black WarGreymon, he too used what was left of his strength to unleash one last Terra Destroyer. The two orbs, both equal in power collided with devastating effect. Boulders shattered, trees were ripped from the ground and splintered, Poke`mon of all kinds fought for their lives until they over-exhausted themselves and collapsed. But the fate of Black WarGreymon and Mewtwo would be far worse.

With neither combatant having any power left, they couldn't resist being blown about by the catastrophic shockwaves that devastated what was left of Mt. Moon. When the worst had passed, the pair were mere yards from each other, half-buried in ruble but too weak to even raise an arm. Slowly, human shadows crept towards them. An omnipotent face appeared in Black WarGreymon's eyes.

" You cost me a lot of money and agents with the destruction you and your equally rare and powerful friend wrought." Giovanni snarled. Then his gritted teeth became a grin. " Bring whatever equipment left to secure these two before they regain their strength!" He shouted to what was left of his combat force.
