Disclaimer: For the minuscule portion of you who are BRAINDEAD IDIOTS, I DON'T own Digimon. Not that I wouldn't like to, but I don't Toei Animation, Saban, Fox Kids, and those Japanese people own Digimon, not me. There are lots of Digimon that I've created for the sole purpose of putting them in this story, so if you see a name you don't recognize, it's probably one of my creations. There will be a list at the end of the fic, and in the Author's Note at the beginning of every chapter, I'll put the names of my creations for that particular chapter, as well as the origin of some Digimon you may not recognize.
Author's Note: Comments, suggestions, and CONSTRUCTIVE criticism welcome. Flames will be answered by a multitude of things from my army of faithful and loyal (and powerful) Digimon. The following Digimon are 100% my creations. If there are actual Digimon with those names, oops, and sorry to whoever created them. Here they are: Shadowmon and Sorcemon. Blackgatomon is just the dark version of our favorite feline, Gatomon. Oh, a note about Sorcemon. There IS a Digimon by the name of Sorcerimon (a Wizardmon look-alike) but I discovered that AFTER I finished with the whole 'Sorcemon Saga'. Oh well. I hope no one sues me. Enjoy the story! Oh, one last thing. I apologize for Serpentmon's bad accent, but I had to put it in there somewhere. Ok, NOW enjoy the story.
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Ladydevimon's Castle
"Look! What's that?" April asked. We were still sitting on the beach, pondering our next move. We looked to where she was pointing.
"Whoa...it looks like an island or something!" Randy exclaimed, as we stood up. Out in the middle of the ocean, was a gigantic brown thing that had just risen out of the ocean.
"That CAN'T be an island, there is no way!" I exclaimed. The island like thing began to rise up, and revealed that it wasn't an island...it was...
"A whale?" Will asked, astonished.
"Looks that way to me," Nick replied.
"Actually, I think that's Whamon," Syakomon said.
"A whale Digimon?" Wendy asked.
"The question is, is he on
Ladydevimon's army or is he a good Digimon?"
I asked. The others nodded.
"I could go find out," Syakomon suggested.
"First of all, what is the 411 on that Digimon?" Nick asked.
"Let's see..." I said, and got the fusion computer out of my backpack.
"He's a Champion Level Digimon of the sea, who uses Water Spout and Tidal Wave attacks. He's normally mild mannered Digimon, but he can be pretty powerful if he's not," I said.
"Well?" Syakomon asked Nick. Nick considered it for a minute.
"Ok, go and find out if he's in Ladydevimon's army or not. But be careful," Nick warned. Syakomon nodded, and dove into the water. We sat down and waited.
"MISTRESS! MISTRESS!!!!!" a Demidevimon yelled.
"WHAT NOW!? WHAT???" Ladydevimon screeched at the ball of feathers.
"Well....we've sort of...lost the position of the Digidestined..." the Demidevimon said, cowering in fear.
"WHAT????? WHAT!!! WHAAAAAAAAATTTTTT??????????" Ladydevimon screamed.
"Well uh..." he began.
"You LOST their position??? HOW???" she screamed.
"It's not my fault! The lookouts on the beach lost their position somehow! We scoured over the beach and the surrounding area, but they were nowhere to be found!" the Demidevimon replied.
"Well GO FIND THEM!!" Ladydevimon yelled, and the Demidevimon flew out quickly. She walked up to the wall and pounded on it with her fist in despair.
"So, Whamon, you say that you met up with another set of Digidestined?" I asked. We were now standing inside the mouth of the gigantic whale Digimon. He had offered to carry us underwater to Ladydevimon's island after Syakomon had told him we were the Digidestined.
"Yes, it was a group of seven. I ran into them just off of this coast of Server. They were coming from File Island," Whamon replied.
"File Island? Isn't that what Frigimon told us about?" April asked.
"Where is it?" Will asked.
"A small island. It's about a three day's swim from here, provided there's no traffic," Whamon explained.
"Oh," April replied.
"So this group of seven kids... are they our age?" Nick asked.
"Yes, they looked about your age. Well, six of them. One of them looked to be about the age of the smallest in your group," he replied.
"Will, my name's Will," Will said.
"Anyway, I still haven't asked, why do you want to go to Ladydevimon's castle? That seems awfully brave of you six. I mean, you ARE the Digidestined, but Ladydevimon is very strong. Oh, and I've heard terrible stories about that castle being haunted," Whamon said.
"Well thanks ALOT, that REALLY makes us want to go to the castle NOW," Randy said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Haunted? You mean with Bakemon right?" I asked, a little fear in my voice.
"No, with the ghosts of deleted Digimon," Whamon replied.
"What? But I thought Digimon don't die!" Nick exclaimed.
"Most of the time, they are reborn, but in some rare cases, their ghosts are left behind, because they have done something terrible, and in order to be reborn, they must do something to pay back for what they did. These Digimon killed here are staying behind for one reason or another, no one is too sure," Whamon said.
"Well, ghosts or no ghosts, we're still going to take down Ladydevimon, right?" Nick asked. We nodded.
"Right, we'll never get home if we don't fight!" Wendy exclaimed. We smiled, and Whamon laughed.
"I admire your spirit, Digidestined! Good news, we're almost there. I'll drop you off as close to shore as I can without being spotted. Good luck getting to Ladydevimon, I would imagine her fortress is heavily guarded," he said.
"Ok, thanks Whamon," Randy replied.
"Mistress! MISTRESS! THE DIGIDESTINED ARE HERE!! THEY'VE BEEN SPOTTED ON THE WESTERN SHORE OF THE ISLAND!!" A Demidevimon shrieked, flying into her room. She jumped up from her throne, startled.
"They're HERE?" she asked.
"Yes!" the Demidevimon replied. She took off out of the room, wondering how they'd gotten to her island without being spotted.
'I'll bet those incompetent guards were on a coffee break again. I'll make sure they pay DEARLY for that.' She thought.
"Serpentmon! Assemble the whole army to the Western Shore! Have all available forces ATTACK!!" she exclaimed, flying past the snake Digimon.
"Including me?" he asked.
"Yes YOU! IMBICILE!!" she yelled, and continued. He turned to the computer screen.
"OK, let's storm this castle!" Randy exclaimed.
"Yeah!" the rest of us replied. The six Element Digimon stood beside us, ready for battle. We started forward.
"Stop INTRUDERS!" came from the inner gates of the castle. A bunch of Digimon burst through the gates, and took off toward us.
"It's the welcoming party," I said, a little nervously.
"Who are they?" Nick asked.
"Most of them are Bakemon and Devilamon, with a flock of Crowmon. The others are Blackgatomon, catlike Digimon at the Champion level who use their Black Luck attacks. There are also three Phantomon. They are ghostlike Digimon at the Ultimate level, who use Shadow Scythe attacks. There are also Shadowmon, Champion Level Digimon who use Black Lightning." I said.
"BLACK Gatomon?" Kari asked, astonished.
"Yep," I replied.
"I have evil twins?" Gatomon asked. I pulled up the profile. Blackgatomon looked exactly like Gatomon, except with no tail ring, and was also completely black, with dark eyes.
"I guess it's kinda like a black cat, you know, gato is cat in Spanish," April pointed out. I continued.
"Those Digidestined brats! I'll get them. Serpentmon! Are your forces ready to attack?" Ladydevimon asked, impatiently. She was pacing up and down, inside her castle. There were several video screens positioned around the room, with the ongoing battle between the Digidestined and the castle's guards. She looked at one, and glared at it, angrily.
"Almossssst, my lady," Serpentmon said, cowering. She turned around to face him abruptly.
"HURRY UP, IMBECILE!! AND DON'T CALL ME 'MY LADY' GOT IT???" she screeched.
"Got it!" Serpentmon replied, cowering.
"GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK, SCALY HEAD!! I DON'T HAVE TIME TO PLAY GAMES WITH YOU!!" she continued to scream.
"Yessss ma'am," Serpentmon squeaked, cowering in fear. She turned her attention to the battle going on outside the castle.
"And HURRY!! Oh, and I'll need you to go fight them too," she said.
"Yess misstresss," Serpentmon replied, still cowering.
"All right! We've got them on the run!" I exclaimed. Most of the Digimon that had come to meet us were retreating, not because they were outnumbered, but because we were beating them badly. "Great, but what are we going to do about Ladydevimon?" Randy asked.
"I'm sure she'll show her ugly face eventually, this is just a waiting game," Wendy said. The rest of us agreed. We suddenly heard an evil laugh.
"Ssssso, you think that you can beat Ladydevimon'ssss army? You haven't got a chansssssss!" a voice hissed. The retreating army suddenly stopped, and faced us again. They parted a little, and a snakelike Digimon slithered through them, and came to face us. He coiled up the bottom part of him, and raised his head.
"Oh great, a snake Digimon," April said.
"My name issss Ssssserpentmon, I am a cobra Digimon at the Ultimate level. Watch out for my Sssssssnake'sssss Venom attack!" he hissed. Behind him, more evil Digimon in Ladydevimon's army piled up.
"Ready?" we asked the Ultimate Digimon.
"Ready!" they chorused.
"This is getting out of hand!" Ladydevimon said, watching the screen. The battle was beginning to take a turn for the worse...for her anyway.
"Serpentmon had better hope that those bratty kids destroy him if he fails, because he does NOT want to face my wrath," she mumbled.
"Having troubles, are we?" the cold, evil voice asked. The room was suddenly dark.
"No, none at all, things are going just as I wanted them," Ladydevimon started. "Those kids were dumb enough to come to my castle, where all of my forces are. It'll only be a matter of time before I have them captured, and ready for you,"
"Good," the voice said. The shadow disappeared from the room Ladydevimon was in. She looked at the screen, and stomped her foot angrily.
"No! They're winning! That's it!" Ladydevimon exclaimed, and stormed out of the room.
"Electromagnetic Pulse!" that hit a Phantomon, throwing it back into a stone pillar. The pillar was broken in half, and fell apart.
"Flaming Laser!" a bunch of Bakemon were blasted into oblivion.
"Ocean's Fury!" a few Crowmon were thrown into the side of the castle.
"Eagle Claw!" another Phantomon bit the dust.
"Nature's Fury!" a green ball of energy hit a few Devilamon.
"Jaga Earthquake!" a pulse of purple light shot across the ground, hitting the remaining Devilamon and Blackgatomon.
"Get them!" Serpentmon hissed.
"Black Magic!" "Crow's Call!" "Shadow Scythe!" "Dark Lightning!" the Crowmon, Blackgatomon, Phantomon, and Shadowmon attacked. The Element Digimon quickly dodged, and fired their attacks.
"Snake's Venom!" a black orb hit Electramon, throwing her to the ground. A shadow appeared over her. She writhed in pain, and screamed.
"What happened?" I asked.
"She must have been poisoned!" Will exclaimed.
"Electramon!" I yelled. Naturamon stopped firing her attacks.
"Nature's Healing!" she glowed green. Her green light spread to Electramon, and the shadow disappeared. Electramon got up.
"Wow, I didn't know you could do that!" April commented, astonished. They turned back to the battle at hand. Serpentmon called for more reinforcements.
"This battle is going nowhere, and Serpentmon just called for more reinforcements, we've got to do something," Nick commented. I thought for a moment.
"I think Serpentmon is the general, commanding this part of the army," Randy said. We all nodded, knowingly. Electramon and Naturamon heard us, and jumped into action.
"Vines!" "Static Whip!" the two attacks wrapped around Serpentmon, and he was lifted up and out of the crowd of Digimon. He hissed, and spit a Snake's Venom at Naturamon. She let go of Serpentmon for a second, and dodged.
"Mega Volt!" Serpentmon was jolted with a bolt of electricity. Electramon's whip disappeared, and Naturamon's vines wrapped around Serpentmon once again. Naturamon landed, and slammed Serpentmon hard into the ground. She picked him up again, and tossed him into the water.
"That's one fried snake," Wendy joked. We turned back to the army. They were now cowering in fear, seeing the easy defeat of their leader. The other two Phantomon got brave, and decided to attack.
"Shadow Scythe!" their bursts of light were blown away by two bursts of red light. Egalamon had deflected them.
"Stone Spear!" "Eagle Claw!" one Phantomon disintegrated.
"Flaming Laser!" "Ocean's Fury!" the other Phantomon was blasted away. The rest of the army turned to us, and cowered in fear.
"Give up, while you still can," Electramon said. The army started to turn and run away, but a cold, dark voice stopped them.
"Get back here!" the voice said. They stopped in their tracks. The twelve of us looked to the direction of the voice. The army parted, allowing a dark, black figure to walk through. She stopped at the front of the army, and laughed.
"Ladydevimon!" we exclaimed. The Digimon tensed for battle. She laughed.
"Silly children! Serpentmon and the Phantomon were only flunkies of mine. Now you must face me, Ladydevimon!" she started, and held out her hands.
"Darkness Wave!" a wave of bats flew toward us. The Digimon concentrated their attacks to the oncoming wave of bats, and it disintegrated. They leapt forward, and started to attack.
"What are you imbeciles standing there for? ATTACK!!" Ladydevimon screeched to her army. They obliged.
"Crow's Call!" "Electromagnetic Pulse!" the two attacks hit each other, and they both disintegrated.
"Black Magic!" Jagamon ducked, and the attacks bounced off his shell.
"Jaga Earthquake!" the Blackgatomon were thrown off their feet.
"Eagle Claw!" an orange light disintegrated them.
"Black Lightning!" the Shadowmon attacked.
"Flaming Laser!" "Hydro Blaster!" the Dark Lightning vanished, along with the Shadowmon. The entire army was either blasted into oblivion, or gone in mere seconds. Ladydevimon looked back in shock.
"Those were just puny, powerless Champion Digimon. Now you face me, an Ultimate!" she exclaimed, and glared at us.
"Are you sure that you want to fight all six of these Digimon? They're at the same level of power as you, and I know that you aren't powerful enough to beat all of them," Randy asked. Ladydevimon glared at us.
"Well, I'm not surrendering. Looks like you're going to have to destroy me," she replied. We looked surprised.
"What?" I asked.
"Go ahead, destroy me! Get it over with!" she said, lowering her hands.
"I don't know about this, guys, it seems really unfair," I whispered back to them.
"Yeah, but remember what Kasheramon said, she isn't following orders. Besides, she is the only Digimon standing in the way of us and going back to the Real World," Nick replied.
"But we just can't destroy her like that...I know she's not following orders, she's doing this of her own free will, but WHAT is she doing, other than taking over a part of the Digital World?" April asked, siding with me. The Digimon didn't move, and neither did Ladydevimon.
"Maybe we could convince that she isn't evil, and to do good instead of bad," Wendy suggested.
"Yeah, like King Arthur did with his Roundtable idea," I commented.
"Well, I guess it's worth a shot," Will said.
"No! No way! We'll never get home then! Kasheramon said that we had to DESTROY her!" Randy protested.
"No she didn't, she just said that we had to rid the Digital World of evil, that doesn't necessarily mean destroying her, that just means to get rid of her EVIL," I replied.
"Well, that could work," Nick said.
"Guys, I doubt she's going to turn good, I mean, think about her name, Lady DEVI mon, it just SOUNDS evil," Randy argued.
"So?" I asked.
"Well?" Ladydevimon asked, getting impatient.
"We won't destroy you," I said, ignoring Randy's protest.
"You won't?" she asked.
"Not unless you want us to. We want to offer you a chance to side with good first," I replied.
"Side with good?" she asked.
"You know, turn over a new leaf, and help us fight for a good cause..." April said.
"Well I..." Ladydevimon started, but suddenly, the area was engulfed with a dark shadow. Ladydevimon gasped, in surprise and fear. We looked around, to see what had caused the shadow.
"You aren't actually thinking of joining them and betraying me, are you Ladydevimon?" a cold, dark, feminine voice asked, from out of nowhere.
"Of course not, master!" Ladydevimon replied, fearfully.
"Master?" I asked, astonished. The voice laughed, and the shadow began to condense until it was the size and shape of a person on the ground between us and Ladydevimon. Out of the shadow, a dark figure began to rise. The shadow completely disappeared, and standing in front of us was a being with a humanlike figure. Only, she wasn't exactly human. She had large, demonic wings on her back, and wore a long, flowing dress and cape. On her hat sat a hat like a witch would wear. Her hair was jet black, and her eyes were black as well. She floated a few inches in the air, her feet not even close to touching the ground.
"Who...who is that?" Randy asked, trying to hide the fear in his voice.
"A Digimon?" Wendy asked. The figure laughed.
"You fools, of course I am! My name is Sorcemon, and I am a Mega Digimon!" she exclaimed. We gasped.
"Me..ga?" I asked, fearfully.
"You mean there's a level of Digivolution past Ultimate?" Randy asked, nervously.
"Are you telling me you don't know what Mega is? It is the highest level of power for a Digimon. Your weakling Ultimate Digimon don't stand a ghost of a chance against me!" Sorcemon said. We gulped. "How appropriate...yes, you don't stand a GHOST of a chance, and that is what you shall soon become! Prepare to face my wrath!"
Next Chapter: Uh oh. This does NOT look good! Can even six Element Digimon stand up to the mighty Sorcemon, Mega level Digimon? How will the Digidestined survive?
