MA: hey peoples! Finally, takuya and Zoe have broken that little love/hate feast they had going.
Zoe: sorry about that.
Takuya: we get a little carried away.
MA: I see. Well we're all going swimming soon so enjoy the fic.
(Everyone comes out in bathing suits.)
Takato: uh-huh! Check me out!
Rika: please gogglehead. Calumon got more muscle than you.
Tai: take a look kid. Learn from the master!
Sora: Tai, you're no better.
Takuya: say, why are you where your clothes?
Tai: yeah, show us what you got!
Max: I don't think you want that.
Takato: come on! How bad came you be? You got a beer belly or something?
Max: well, I warned you.
(Max removes his shirt, revealing his well developed upper body. As he flexes his muscle, all the girls look at him with lust.)
Takuya: Zoe? Hello?
Zoe: MOLTO BONO!
Rika: damn! Now that's a body!
Takato: what about me?
Tai: sora, what are you looking at?! He's your son!
Sora: not yet. That's a good boy.
Max: if you think that's something, take a look at this!
(He ripped off his pants, leaving nothing but his underwear and his, umm, package.)
Sora, rika, and Zoe: AHHHHHHHHH! (Faints)
Mimi: hey guys! It's time to-AHHHHHHHHHHHH! (Faints)
Kari: what's taking you so-AHHHHHHHHHHH! (You know what happens.)
Renamon: I heard there was-AHHHHHHHHH!
(Girls from all the digimon seasons, pokemon, gundam, dbz, and just about every other anime around, come in, see him and pass out. In walks in BW.)
BW: he showed off didn't he?
MA: yep. Hey, keke, why aren't you jealous?
Keke: I don't mind. Besides they can look but he's mine.
MA: fine. Hey, Mr. Universe, do the disclaimer.
Max: great. Ma doesn't own digimon or the many anime girls unconscious on the floor.
MA: good. Now while I get some smelling salts, on with the fic!
DIGIMON THE MOVIE: THE RETURN OF THE DIGITAL WARLORD
THE DIGITAL GOD'S REVIAL
" But rika, you can't go!" urged renamon. Rika was out of bed and getting dress in her usually attire, though she was clearly very weak, so weak she couldn't tie up her ponytail.
" I have to go! Takato needs me! I know he's in trouble." She said.
" Rika, you have to conserve your strength."
" No. We have to go! At least to let me know that he's alright."
Rika looked into her digimon's eyes with a pleading need that renamon have never seen from her.
" I shouldn't even be doing this but we shall go but only to watch. Rika, you're still too weak to do any kind of battling. Agreed?"
" Agreed."
RENAMON DIGIVOLVE TO---- KYUBIMON
" Rika, get on."
" Thanks renamon." She smiled as she hopped onto the furry back of kyubimon and together, they jumped over the gate. Rika's grandmother came out just in time to see her and her digimon sprint down the street but instead of being angry, a smile appeared her face.
" Go on, rika. Follow your heart."
Takato matsuki seemed like a normal kid until he became a tamer and went into a separate league than his friends. When guilmon went ultimate, he again separated himself form his fellow tamers. When he and guilmon bio merged to gallantmon, he went into a new level that the others barely able to achieve this. Now, the young goggled headed leader of the tamers has now achieved the honored level of the ascendant, the power of the ultimate human warrior. He must use this power to now face off with the most evil being to existence, next to the devil himself. For the first time in his life, takato must fight this battle alone, with his friends, with fellow tamers, and with his digimon. And for the first time in his life, he knows whom he fights for.
The evil one cackled as takato flew right at him with an arm pulled back. The warlord threw a punch but he ducked under it. Taking him by surprise, takato gave him a well-deserved upper cut to his chin, sending him air born. The warlord stopped himself and looked around for the youngster. Takato materialized behind him just as he turned around, just time for a kick to the head. Takato began to punch him at high speed to the awe of everyone watching. Just then, a car appeared on the grounds as the battle raged on. From the car emerged takato's parent, both, clearly, upset.
" Henry! Henry! Have you seen takato?" his mother asked franticly while shaking him.
" Yes, I have."
" Well, where is he?"
Her answer came as a loud crash interrupted her integration. She gasped while her husband's eye's shot out of her sockets as takato flipped up from the ground as the warlord came down with a fist, destroying the street where takato was. He skipped back a few stepped while the warlord punched wildly at him, missing him each time. Takato hit him with an open palm to the gut, sending him sliding across the ground. The two were now lock in a steely staring contest as his parent got a good look at him.
" What's happened to him? What wrong's with takato?" asked his frantic mother.
" We really don't know but some how, takato has become some kind of super fighter and right now, he's the only one who can beat that warlord guy." Explained Henry.
" But I don't want him to fight! Takato! You come here right now!"
" Honey calm down."
" Calm down?! That's your son out there too!"
" I know but like I told you before, he's going up and I think he must do this on his own."
His wife, like him, could only watch as her son stare down the ultimate evil.
Good, now to begin.
" So takato, who's the old couple? They look like they're worried about you."
" Keep them out of this!"
" Now I remember. They are you folks. Well, this is a really family affair."
" Leave them alone!"
" Don't worry. I won't mess with them. I just want to see the looks on their face you scream for mercy as I kill you."
The insult struck a nerve with him as his aura got a little larger, responding to his anger. The warlord smirked as his mystery plan was coming to fruition. Meanwhile, another familiar face appeared on the scene as justimon jumped from rooftop to rooftop and finally on the group of people watching the battle.
" Hey guys! Why aren't we fighting him?" justimon said, seemingly ready to battle.
" I never thought I say this but ryo, we don't know you." said kazu.
" What?" he said as he dedigivolved back to ryo and monodramon.
" Takato got him on the ropes right now." Kenta simply said. Intrigued, ryo turned tot eh battle, watching in awe as takato attacked the warlord with fist and kicks flying, all connecting with his body.
Well, well! Takato's really laying it into him. How did he get such power?
Takato shot into the air as the warlord resorted to firing off ki blasts at him. The goggle warrior easily dodged or knocked them away and fired his own in response. The warlord joined him in the sky as the both of them began to fight fast, so fast that the spectators on the ground couldn't even keep up. The two slammed into the side of a building without even slowing down. The impact of their fist created shock wave that shattered windows around the area. Just then, the fox digimon know as kyubimon jump off a roof and on to the scene.
" Renamon?" guilmon said as she appeared.
" You shouldn't be here. Where's rika?"
" I'm sorry but she wanted to be here."
Almost as if on cue, the tamer in question jumped off her back but overestimated her strength as she barely stayed on her feet. Kyubimon dedigivolved back to renamon and loyally held up rika.
" Man rika, you don't look so good." Stated ryo.
" You don't look so hot yourself." She spat, gasping for air. X, just then, materialized in front of rika, somewhat cross at her.
" Rika, what are you doing here?"
" I had to see takato. I wanted to make sure he was okay." She coughed out.
" Ryo was right. Rika what's wrong? And who are you?" asked Henry.
" It's her energy. You know that energy siphon on his hands? After the battle, he wanted to make rika pay for refusing his offer so he used it on her. She was very close to dying that day."
" Man, I don't know. How did she live?" wanted kenta as they all listened to his story.
" True, rika was dead for moment but takato saved her. Her death pushed him over the edge with rage and in that moment of righteous anger, takato transformed in the form you see now."
" Whoa. I knew never to chumly mad but man!"
" That's right. The reason he was gone for so long is because he was training with me."
" And you are?" asked takato's mother.
" Call me X. I was send by the same people that sent Simms. Takato has a rare gift; the power of the ascendant. In this form, he is the most powerful being on the face of the earth. For the past two weeks, takato has been training under me, learning how control his powers, and preparing for this fight right here."
" And what about rika?" asked jeri.
" Takato's powers brought her back but she has to rest so her body can recover the energy she lost. Which is why you should be back at home rest."
" Hey. That bastard almost killed me and I didn't spent two weeks watching him train just be told how he beat him!"
" Wait a minute! If you were so weak, how did you watch him train?" asked ryo.
" He trained over at my house."
" You mean takato was over at your house all this time and you didn't tell us?! I was over there five times! Why did you tell me?"
" You didn't need to know, ass."
" It was my fault. I know you were worried about him but I need his full attention. You all would prove a distraction. I'm sorry."
As he finished what he said, the fighters in the sky finished their fist-to-fist showdown and were now facing each other with hate in their eyes.
" Pretty good kid. I must say, you're proving to be the best fighter I've faced since I got here."
" You're not such a bad fighter yourself."
" Thanks. You need to look good because a very special guest just arrived." He grinned as takato looked behind him. On the ground, rika looked up at him while takato's expression never left him.
Rika, what are you doing here?
Takato? Is that you?
No, it the voices that drive people to kill. Of course it's me.
But how?
X taught me how to project my thoughts.
Neat trick gogglehead.
Thanks. But what are you doing here?
I felt that you were in danger. I had to see you.
I don't want you fighting.
Right now, I don't feel like fighting old age. I'll stay back and watch.
Good.
Just don't get killed out there or I'll beat you to death. Got me, gogglehead?
Since you put it that way, I will rika.
Takato turned back to the warlord with a grin on his face while rika sported the same.
" What with the smile?"
" No reason. Let's just do it."
" Fine!"
He fired a dark ki blast right at takato; watch the young man swat it away with his hand. Still smirking, he fired a massive barrage of energy blasts at takato. Takato batted away as many as he could, until one caught him in the face and the others followed suit, colliding with his body and cover him in smoke. As the smoke faded, takato floated out, virtually unharmed.
" Well, that was impressive!" he laughed clapping his hands at the show.
" I don't see why you're so happy. I've been winning this fight."
" For now you are."
Saying this, he extended his arm and began creating a large energy ball in his hands but takato didn't seem too threatened by it.
" It's useless. You can't beat me with that. I'm still stronger."
" True but you have learn a lesson son; sometime it's the smartest who wins, not the strongest."
Takato didn't have time to ponder this statement, as the eyes of the warlord fell to the group of people below him. Before he could stop him, he threw the ball straight at his friend and family.
" NO!!!" Takato screamed as he used all his super speed and flew down at it. The group scattered out of the way but unfortunately, renamon was slowed because rika was too weak to move fast. Takato appeared in front of the ball, just feet from her. Takato struggled against the dark ball as rika watched him fight it. In a big roar, he shoved the ball back into sky. On instinct, he covered rika as the ball exploded in the sky, blowing wind all over the city, causing every to grab hold something to keep from blowing away. When it was safe, takato uncovered rika with a look of murderous rage on his face, as the warlord landed with a smile.
" Very good. A second later and this city would be a big smoking hole in the ground."
" I TOLD YOU THIS IS BETWEEN US!"
" Oh really? I must have missed that memo."
Takato's anger was boiling over as he began to emit a low growl.
" Takato." Rika said before takato roared with anger that sent a chill up even ryo's spine. His aura grew in size as well as all his muscles and his green eyes faded out, leaving only his whites show.
" YOU ARE EVIL BEYOND EVIL! I WILL KILL YOU WITH MY BEAR HANDS!" he yelled, throwing himself at the warlord and furious punching him in the head.
" Man! I thought I'd seen takato mad before but this is crazy!" said terriermon.
" Oh no! Takato too mad!" said X.
" But why is that wrong? He's winning." Asked kenta.
" His anger is clouding his thinking and he is now prone to any mistakes."
Takato continuing to battle in a blind rage, punching him relentlessly as the warlord seemed helpless to defend himself. Takato locked his hands together and gave him an axe hammer blow to the warlord, smashing him into the concrete with a loud boom. Takato looked down at his fallen and beaten foe and grabbed his shirt prepare to deliver the finishing blow.
" Takato no!"
He looked back to see rika, looking right at him with her tired eyes.
" Don't do it."
Slowly, takato's overwhelming anger died down as his eyes returned to normal.
" You're right rika. He ain't worth it." he said dropping the warlord on the ground and turning back to her. But just as he did, the warlord opened his eyes and began to laugh. Before takato knew it, the warlord wrapped his legs around his arms and his arm around his neck.
" Two more lessons dill weed; never turn your back on your opponent and never show mercy."
" This is pathetic. How long do you think you can hold me?"
" Long enough to do this!"
The warlord then slapped on his energy siphon on to his chest and began to absorb his power.
" What the?!" was all takato could get as his power was getting lower.
" I played you like a ukulele! I purposely pushed your anger levels just to get your power up!"
" But w-why?"
" You see, I could absorb the energy of a thousand digimon and still not get the energy I need. But that's when I saw you transform. I had an idea; to let you train and master you power so I would have enough. You see, out of all the powers I've seen, nothing was like the power of you ascendants so all I had to do was make you angry and wait for your power to rise enough for me to do this!"
" Do what?!"
" To return to my true power! My status! To reclaim my godhood!"
Suddenly, as takato's glow began to fade, the warlord's body began to illuminate and his eyes are shot open wide. A strange green aura surround him as the ground began to crack, and the sky began to darken.
" What's going on?" yelled Henry.
" The worst possible thing that can happen! Take cover!!!!" X shouted as he and everyone took cover while renamon protected rika from the updraft of wind. In a loud boom, the entire sequence, the tamers looked on the warlord god form; he was now much taller then he was before, his skin was now a green armor-like hide, with two insect-like wings. His face seemed human but a crown like appendage that rose up and split up the middle. In his hand was the now normal and limp body of takato.
" Ahhhh! It's good to be back!" he said in a much deeper voice.
" Thank you, X, for training such a strong fighter. Pity I no longer need him. You can have him." He said casually throwing takato's body towards them. Takato parents ran to their son's body while the warlord crossed him arms and smiled.
" Takato! My sweet little boy! What has he done to you?" his mother cried but takato's lifeless eyes silently answered her. The other tamers ran up to his body but there was nothing they could. Henry knelt down and felt for a pulse.
" I'm sorry. There's no pulse."
The tears in the tamer's and digimon's eyes were enough to show the sorrow.
" No! Takato! Wake up please!" guilmon said nuzzling his tamer's head in futile attempt to wake him.
" He's not dead."
Rika walked up to his lifeless body and knelt down. Without warning, she slapped him across the face.
" Wake up gogglehead!"
" Rika, he's gone." Spoke ryo.
" No! He's tougher than that! Come on gogglehead. Get up. Get up or I'll bust you up, I swear to god! Wake up. You promised you'd also be by my side. You promised. You promised."
She finally lost controlled and cried right on his chest, and for the first time, not really caring if everyone thought she was weak or not.
" Well that was over dramatic." The warlord said, chuckling at the scene. Henry and ryo faced the villain with their digimon, all teary eyed.
" How can you laugh at something like this?!" yelled ryo.
" How can I? Like this!" he said before laughing evilly, causing the named tamers to grow with rage.
BIO-MERGE DIGIVOLUTION
TERRIERMON BIO MERGE TO---MEGAGARGOMON
MONODRAMON BIO MERGE TO---JUSTIMON
" You think this is funny?! Think again!" mega gargomon screamed, rocketing towards him with his fist pulled back. His punch connects but the warlord didn't seem to register blow, not even losing his smile. Justimon swerved behind him and delivered a kick to his back. This also seemed not to have any kind of effect on his person. The digital god slowly began to slowly rise into the sky as the two megas punched and kicked all over him, hoping to find a weak spot but to no avail. As the rising battle in the sky raged on, rika didn't move from her spot on takato chest, her tears staining his sweatshirt. Suddenly, X, having watched the scene unfold before, walked over and put his hand on her shoulder.
" Rika, I know you're hurting but I need you to move."
" I'm not moving until takato wakes up."
" But if you don't, I can't bring him back."
The remaining people, including rika, looked at him as he said this.
" If you're joke Mr. X, it not at all funny." Said Mr. Matsuki.
" No, I'm not. You see, the power of the ascendant can keep a person alive beyond what we perceive as death. His body may be dead but his spirit is in limbo. I hope I can contact him before he chooses."
" Chooses what?" asked jeri.
" While his spirit is in limbo, he will be offered a choice; go back to his body or go on to a realm where he will know no pain or suffer. It's go thing that your friend are fighting the warlord. If I tried to do this in front of him, he would have surely destroyed his body."
" Do it. Bring him back." Said his mother.
" I'll try."
" Don't try, do."
X then placed his hand on takato's chest and as he did, both began to glow a slight gold color, as X seemed to zone out.
" Where am I?"
Takato floated aimlessly in a void of white, not coming or going. His mind in a euphoric state, drift between conscious thought and mindlessness.
" Is this heaven? Where are the angels?"
His question was answered as a small voice began to echo through out the void.
" Takato?"
" God? Is that you?"
" Takato!"
" Who are you?"
Just then, X appeared over him, floating parallel to him.
" Takato! I finally found you! Come on. We have to go back."
" Why should I?"
" To beat the warlord."
" No. I can't beat him. What's the point?" he said turning his back on him.
" What's the point? The destruction of the known world! That's the point!"
" But I'm dead. It doesn't matter to me any more."
" But I can bring you back."
" I don't want to go back. I'm tired of fighting. I just want to rest."
" You are an ascendant. You have a responsibility to the world!"
" But I can beat him! He's too strong."
" Takato! Look at this!"
Takato turned as X called up the images of the d3s fighting in many battle.
" Who are they?"
" They are your predecessors. They are the ones that came before you. They were in many battles that many thought were hopeless. You are their legacy and you want to give up? You can't give up. You're scared. That's ok. But don't forsake everyone you care about because of it."
" But why should I fight?"
" Do it for the city, for your friends, for your family, for guilmon, for rika?"
" Rika?"
" Yes. Rika is the only on who thinks that you are still alive while everyone thinks you're dead. She still believes that you'll keep your promise, to never leave her, that you'll be behind her always. Don't make me go back say you lied about it. So what are you going to do?"
X waited for what seemed for an eternity, wondering his answer. He looked down and saw his fist ball up slowly and tightly as he turned to him with a different look in his eyes.
" Let's go."
The loud crash of justimon's form impacting the ground shook the ground. Both megas put up a good fight but compared to the new warlord they didn't stand a chance.
" Now that they are out of the way, now for the rest of you."
" Aww man! This is it!" said kazu when the glow around X faded and he stood up.
" Well?" asked takato's mother.
" Give him room."
They all did as he requested but didn't understand what he was doing.
" Takato, open your eyes."
Takato's eyes blink as the color returned to him.
" Now get up."
Takato got to he feet, feeling no ill effects of the draining.
" Now go kick some ass."
As if on cue, he screamed to the top of his lungs as the golden power of the ascendant returned to him with a vengeance, much to the dismay of the warlord. As the ground crack under him and his screaming fit ended, his hair was now sticking straight up, save a small lick of hair in front of him.
" Takato are you all right?" asked his worried mother.
" Don't worry. I'm fine." He said calmly.
" Rika, I'm still keeping my promise."
Rika smiled as the leader of the tamers, now a surpassed ascendant, floated up into the sky, leveling off near the warlord.
" I'll say this about you ascendants, you don't know when to stay dead. Ready for round 2?"
" Let's rock."
NEXT TIME: its takato vs. the warlord round 2 but when loses the fight, takato does something unbelievable.

DIGIMON THE MOVIE: THE RETURN OF THE DIGITAL WARLORD
THE DIGITAL GOD'S REVIAL
" But rika, you can't go!" urged renamon. Rika was out of bed and getting dress in her usually attire, though she was clearly very weak, so weak she couldn't tie up her ponytail.
" I have to go! Takato needs me! I know he's in trouble." She said.
" Rika, you have to conserve your strength."
" No. We have to go! At least to let me know that he's alright."
Rika looked into her digimon's eyes with a pleading need that renamon have never seen from her.
" I shouldn't even be doing this but we shall go but only to watch. Rika, you're still too weak to do any kind of battling. Agreed?"
" Agreed."
RENAMON DIGIVOLVE TO---- KYUBIMON
" Rika, get on."
" Thanks renamon." She smiled as she hopped onto the furry back of kyubimon and together, they jumped over the gate. Rika's grandmother came out just in time to see her and her digimon sprint down the street but instead of being angry, a smile appeared her face.
" Go on, rika. Follow your heart."
Takato matsuki seemed like a normal kid until he became a tamer and went into a separate league than his friends. When guilmon went ultimate, he again separated himself form his fellow tamers. When he and guilmon bio merged to gallantmon, he went into a new level that the others barely able to achieve this.

For the first time in his life, takato must fight this battle alone, with his friends, with fellow tamers, and with his digimon. And for the first time in his life, he knows whom he fights for.

" Henry! Henry! Have you seen takato?" his mother asked franticly while shaking him.
" Yes, I have."
" Well, where is he?"
Her answer came as a loud crash interrupted her integration. She gasped while her husband's eye's shot out of her sockets as takato flipped up from the ground as the warlord came down with a fist, destroying the street where takato was. He skipped back a few stepped while the warlord punched wildly at him, missing him each time. Takato hit him with an open palm to the gut, sending him sliding across the ground. The two were now lock in a steely staring contest as his parent got a good look at him.
" What's happened to him? What wrong's with takato?" asked his frantic mother.
" We really don't know but some how, takato has become some kind of super fighter and right now, he's the only one who can beat that warlord guy." Explained Henry.
" But I don't want him to fight! Takato! You come here right now!"
" Honey calm down."
" Calm down?! That's your son out there too!"
" I know but like I told you before, he's going up and I think he must do this on his own."
His wife, like him, could only watch as her son stare down the ultimate evil.
Good, now to begin.
" So takato, who's the old couple? They look like they're worried about you."
" Keep them out of this!"
" Now I remember. They are you folks. Well, this is a really family affair."
" Leave them alone!"
" Don't worry. I won't mess with them. I just want to see the looks on their face you scream for mercy as I kill you."
The insult struck a nerve with him as his aura got a little larger, responding to his anger. The warlord smirked as his mystery plan was coming to fruition. Meanwhile, another familiar face appeared on the scene as justimon jumped from rooftop to rooftop and finally on the group of people watching the battle.
" Hey guys! Why aren't we fighting him?" justimon said, seemingly ready to battle.
" I never thought I say this but ryo, we don't know you." said kazu.
" What?" he said as he dedigivolved back to ryo and monodramon.
" Takato got him on the ropes right now." Kenta simply said. Intrigued, ryo turned tot eh battle, watching in awe as takato attacked the warlord with fist and kicks flying, all connecting with his body.
Well, well! Takato's really laying it into him. How did he get such power?
Takato shot into the air as the warlord resorted to firing off ki blasts at him. The goggle warrior easily dodged or knocked them away and fired his own in response. The warlord joined him in the sky as the both of them began to fight fast, so fast that the spectators on the ground couldn't even keep up. The two slammed into the side of a building without even slowing down. The impact of their fist created shock wave that shattered windows around the area. Just then, the fox digimon know as kyubimon jump off a roof and on to the scene.
" Renamon?" guilmon said as she appeared.
" You shouldn't be here. Where's rika?"
" I'm sorry but she wanted to be here."
Almost as if on cue, the tamer in question jumped off her back but overestimated her strength as she barely stayed on her feet. Kyubimon dedigivolved back to renamon and loyally held up rika.
" Man rika, you don't look so good." Stated ryo.
" You don't look so hot yourself." She spat, gasping for air. X, just then, materialized in front of rika, somewhat cross at her.
" Rika, what are you doing here?"
" I had to see takato. I wanted to make sure he was okay." She coughed out.
" Ryo was right. Rika what's wrong? And who are you?" asked Henry.
" It's her energy. You know that energy siphon on his hands? After the battle, he wanted to make rika pay for refusing his offer so he used it on her. She was very close to dying that day."
" Man, I don't know. How did she live?" wanted kenta as they all listened to his story.
" True, rika was dead for moment but takato saved her. Her death pushed him over the edge with rage and in that moment of righteous anger, takato transformed in the form you see now."
" Whoa. I knew never to chumly mad but man!"
" That's right. The reason he was gone for so long is because he was training with me."
" And you are?" asked takato's mother.
" Call me X. I was send by the same people that sent Simms. Takato has a rare gift; the power of the ascendant. In this form, he is the most powerful being on the face of the earth. For the past two weeks, takato has been training under me, learning how control his powers, and preparing for this fight right here."
" And what about rika?" asked jeri.
" Takato's powers brought her back but she has to rest so her body can recover the energy she lost. Which is why you should be back at home rest."
" Hey. That bastard almost killed me and I didn't spent two weeks watching him train just be told how he beat him!"
" Wait a minute! If you were so weak, how did you watch him train?" asked ryo.
" He trained over at my house."
" You mean takato was over at your house all this time and you didn't tell us?! I was over there five times! Why did you tell me?"
" You didn't need to know, ass."
" It was my fault. I know you were worried about him but I need his full attention. You all would prove a distraction. I'm sorry."
As he finished what he said, the fighters in the sky finished their fist-to-fist showdown and were now facing each other with hate in their eyes.
" Pretty good kid. I must say, you're proving to be the best fighter I've faced since I got here."
" You're not such a bad fighter yourself."
" Thanks. You need to look good because a very special guest just arrived." He grinned as takato looked behind him. On the ground, rika looked up at him while takato's expression never left him.
Rika, what are you doing here?
Takato? Is that you?
No, it the voices that drive people to kill. Of course it's me.
But how?
X taught me how to project my thoughts.
Neat trick gogglehead.
Thanks. But what are you doing here?
I felt that you were in danger. I had to see you.
I don't want you fighting.
Right now, I don't feel like fighting old age. I'll stay back and watch.
Good.
Just don't get killed out there or I'll beat you to death. Got me, gogglehead?
Since you put it that way, I will rika.
Takato turned back to the warlord with a grin on his face while rika sported the same.
" What with the smile?"
" No reason. Let's just do it."
" Fine!"
He fired a dark ki blast right at takato; watch the young man swat it away with his hand. Still smirking, he fired a massive barrage of energy blasts at takato. Takato batted away as many as he could, until one caught him in the face and the others followed suit, colliding with his body and cover him in smoke. As the smoke faded, takato floated out, virtually unharmed.
" Well, that was impressive!" he laughed clapping his hands at the show.
" I don't see why you're so happy. I've been winning this fight."
" For now you are."
Saying this, he extended his arm and began creating a large energy ball in his hands but takato didn't seem too threatened by it.
" It's useless. You can't beat me with that. I'm still stronger."
" True but you have learn a lesson son; sometime it's the smartest who wins, not the strongest."
Takato didn't have time to ponder this statement, as the eyes of the warlord fell to the group of people below him. Before he could stop him, he threw the ball straight at his friend and family.
" NO!!!" Takato screamed as he used all his super speed and flew down at it. The group scattered out of the way but unfortunately, renamon was slowed because rika was too weak to move fast. Takato appeared in front of the ball, just feet from her. Takato struggled against the dark ball as rika watched him fight it. In a big roar, he shoved the ball back into sky. On instinct, he covered rika as the ball exploded in the sky, blowing wind all over the city, causing every to grab hold something to keep from blowing away. When it was safe, takato uncovered rika with a look of murderous rage on his face, as the warlord landed with a smile.
" Very good. A second later and this city would be a big smoking hole in the ground."
" I TOLD YOU THIS IS BETWEEN US!"
" Oh really? I must have missed that memo."
Takato's anger was boiling over as he began to emit a low growl.
" Takato." Rika said before takato roared with anger that sent a chill up even ryo's spine. His aura grew in size as well as all his muscles and his green eyes faded out, leaving only his whites show.
" YOU ARE EVIL BEYOND EVIL! I WILL KILL YOU WITH MY BEAR HANDS!" he yelled, throwing himself at the warlord and furious punching him in the head.
" Man! I thought I'd seen takato mad before but this is crazy!" said terriermon.
" Oh no! Takato too mad!" said X.
" But why is that wrong? He's winning." Asked kenta.
" His anger is clouding his thinking and he is now prone to any mistakes."
Takato continuing to battle in a blind rage, punching him relentlessly as the warlord seemed helpless to defend himself. Takato locked his hands together and gave him an axe hammer blow to the warlord, smashing him into the concrete with a loud boom. Takato looked down at his fallen and beaten foe and grabbed his shirt prepare to deliver the finishing blow.
" Takato no!"
He looked back to see rika, looking right at him with her tired eyes.
" Don't do it."
Slowly, takato's overwhelming anger died down as his eyes returned to normal.
" You're right rika. He ain't worth it." he said dropping the warlord on the ground and turning back to her. But just as he did, the warlord opened his eyes and began to laugh. Before takato knew it, the warlord wrapped his legs around his arms and his arm around his neck.
" Two more lessons dill weed; never turn your back on your opponent and never show mercy."
" This is pathetic. How long do you think you can hold me?"
" Long enough to do this!"
The warlord then slapped on his energy siphon on to his chest and began to absorb his power.
" What the?!" was all takato could get as his power was getting lower.
" I played you like a ukulele! I purposely pushed your anger levels just to get your power up!"
" But w-why?"
" You see, I could absorb the energy of a thousand digimon and still not get the energy I need. But that's when I saw you transform. I had an idea; to let you train and master you power so I would have enough. You see, out of all the powers I've seen, nothing was like the power of you ascendants so all I had to do was make you angry and wait for your power to rise enough for me to do this!"
" Do what?!"
" To return to my true power! My status! To reclaim my godhood!"
Suddenly, as takato's glow began to fade, the warlord's body began to illuminate and his eyes are shot open wide. A strange green aura surround him as the ground began to crack, and the sky began to darken.
" What's going on?" yelled Henry.
" The worst possible thing that can happen! Take cover!!!!" X shouted as he and everyone took cover while renamon protected rika from the updraft of wind. In a loud boom, the entire sequence, the tamers looked on the warlord god form; he was now much taller then he was before, his skin was now a green armor-like hide, with two insect-like wings. His face seemed human but a crown like appendage that rose up and split up the middle. In his hand was the now normal and limp body of takato.
" Ahhhh! It's good to be back!" he said in a much deeper voice.
" Thank you, X, for training such a strong fighter. Pity I no longer need him. You can have him." He said casually throwing takato's body towards them. Takato parents ran to their son's body while the warlord crossed him arms and smiled.
" Takato! My sweet little boy! What has he done to you?" his mother cried but takato's lifeless eyes silently answered her. The other tamers ran up to his body but there was nothing they could. Henry knelt down and felt for a pulse.
" I'm sorry. There's no pulse."
The tears in the tamer's and digimon's eyes were enough to show the sorrow.
" No! Takato! Wake up please!" guilmon said nuzzling his tamer's head in futile attempt to wake him.
" He's not dead."
Rika walked up to his lifeless body and knelt down. Without warning, she slapped him across the face.
" Wake up gogglehead!"
" Rika, he's gone." Spoke ryo.
" No! He's tougher than that! Come on gogglehead. Get up. Get up or I'll bust you up, I swear to god! Wake up. You promised you'd also be by my side. You promised. You promised."
She finally lost controlled and cried right on his chest, and for the first time, not really caring if everyone thought she was weak or not.
" Well that was over dramatic." The warlord said, chuckling at the scene. Henry and ryo faced the villain with their digimon, all teary eyed.
" How can you laugh at something like this?!" yelled ryo.
" How can I? Like this!" he said before laughing evilly, causing the named tamers to grow with rage.
BIO-MERGE DIGIVOLUTION
TERRIERMON BIO MERGE TO---MEGAGARGOMON
MONODRAMON BIO MERGE TO---JUSTIMON
" You think this is funny?! Think again!" mega gargomon screamed, rocketing towards him with his fist pulled back. His punch connects but the warlord didn't seem to register blow, not even losing his smile. Justimon swerved behind him and delivered a kick to his back. This also seemed not to have any kind of effect on his person. The digital god slowly began to slowly rise into the sky as the two megas punched and kicked all over him, hoping to find a weak spot but to no avail. As the rising battle in the sky raged on, rika didn't move from her spot on takato chest, her tears staining his sweatshirt. Suddenly, X, having watched the scene unfold before, walked over and put his hand on her shoulder.
" Rika, I know you're hurting but I need you to move."
" I'm not moving until takato wakes up."
" But if you don't, I can't bring him back."
The remaining people, including rika, looked at him as he said this.
" If you're joke Mr. X, it not at all funny." Said Mr. Matsuki.
" No, I'm not. You see, the power of the ascendant can keep a person alive beyond what we perceive as death. His body may be dead but his spirit is in limbo. I hope I can contact him before he chooses."
" Chooses what?" asked jeri.
" While his spirit is in limbo, he will be offered a choice; go back to his body or go on to a realm where he will know no pain or suffer. It's go thing that your friend are fighting the warlord. If I tried to do this in front of him, he would have surely destroyed his body."
" Do it. Bring him back." Said his mother.
" I'll try."
" Don't try, do."
X then placed his hand on takato's chest and as he did, both began to glow a slight gold color, as X seemed to zone out.
" Where am I?"
Takato floated aimlessly in a void of white, not coming or going. His mind in a euphoric state, drift between conscious thought and mindlessness.
" Is this heaven? Where are the angels?"
His question was answered as a small voice began to echo through out the void.
" Takato?"
" God? Is that you?"
" Takato!"
" Who are you?"
Just then, X appeared over him, floating parallel to him.
" Takato! I finally found you! Come on. We have to go back."
" Why should I?"
" To beat the warlord."
" No. I can't beat him. What's the point?" he said turning his back on him.
" What's the point? The destruction of the known world! That's the point!"
" But I'm dead. It doesn't matter to me any more."
" But I can bring you back."
" I don't want to go back. I'm tired of fighting. I just want to rest."
" You are an ascendant. You have a responsibility to the world!"
" But I can beat him! He's too strong."
" Takato! Look at this!"
Takato turned as X called up the images of the d3s fighting in many battle.
" Who are they?"
" They are your predecessors. They are the ones that came before you. They were in many battles that many thought were hopeless. You are their legacy and you want to give up? You can't give up. You're scared. That's ok. But don't forsake everyone you care about because of it."
" But why should I fight?"
" Do it for the city, for your friends, for your family, for guilmon, for rika?"
" Rika?"
" Yes. Rika is the only on who thinks that you are still alive while everyone thinks you're dead. She still believes that you'll keep your promise, to never leave her, that you'll be behind her always. Don't make me go back say you lied about it. So what are you going to do?"
X waited for what seemed for an eternity, wondering his answer. He looked down and saw his fist ball up slowly and tightly as he turned to him with a different look in his eyes.
" Let's go."
The loud crash of justimon's form impacting the ground shook the ground. Both megas put up a good fight but compared to the new warlord they didn't stand a chance.
" Now that they are out of the way, now for the rest of you."
" Aww man! This is it!" said kazu when the glow around X faded and he stood up.
" Well?" asked takato's mother.
" Give him room."
They all did as he requested but didn't understand what he was doing.
" Takato, open your eyes."
Takato's eyes blink as the color returned to him.
" Now get up."
Takato got to he feet, feeling no ill effects of the draining.
" Now go kick some ass."
As if on cue, he screamed to the top of his lungs as the golden power of the ascendant returned to him with a vengeance, much to the dismay of the warlord. As the ground crack under him and his screaming fit ended, his hair was now sticking straight up, save a small lick of hair in front of him.
" Takato are you all right?" asked his worried mother.
" Don't worry. I'm fine." He said calmly.
" Rika, I'm still keeping my promise."
Rika smiled as the leader of the tamers, now a surpassed ascendant, floated up into the sky, leveling off near the warlord.
" I'll say this about you ascendants, you don't know when to stay dead. Ready for round 2?"
" Let's rock."
NEXT TIME: its takato vs. the warlord round 2 but when loses the fight, takato does something unbelievable.
