Hamtaro Zero: Okay, I have some news. I'm going to be gone most of December, and I might not be on FanFiction.net for a while, but I'll still be working on my FanFictions constantly. I'll be continuing my SMRPG/Hamtaro Crossover FanFiction during December too. But if I don't come on much, then whenever I do come back during December, I'll have more than 1 new episode done (if I ever get a chance to get on the computer, that is) I might not be able to get 1 ep done a day, but I'll do my best!

So, I'm going to need everyone to be patient if they want more of my stories. I'm just informing you that if this FanFiction does not update every day, it's because I'm not able to get on the internet every night while I'm at my mom's house, but I might be able to.

Okay answering NICOLES' review. The only reason I'm doing Hamtaro+Bijou is because none of the other Hams are in the Dark Ham's Realm. I've done Maxwell+Sandy, and Stan+Pashmina. Laguna and Aeris will return later. There's James+Amy and Jim+Kimono, also. Respectfully, I might do Cappy+Penelope, if everyone wants it. Review with your answers!

Also, everyone may use Jim and/or Kimono in their stories, but I beg them to please use the same profile as I had, they can change the weapon, but not the personality or attitude. And any other hamster that I give stats for (or already gave for) may be used. I still have more hamsters to introduce to the story later. But anyway... here's the next episode!! Enjoy!

Episode 22: The Final Guardian! Part 2: Rising Power

Hamtaro: I think he's still alive, but I feel a strange power where he is.

Bijou: Do you think he's gaining power?

Hamtaro: It seems so...

Shade: *jumps back through the hole in the wall and lands, his body glowing red with anger*

Hamtaro: He was gaining power the whole time! He took that advantage of me slamming him through the wall to stay there and power up!

Bijou: Now what?!

Hamtaro: We just battle!

Shade: It won't be that easy! *releases a huge fireball and it speeds towards Hamtaro*

Hamtaro: *jumps and slashes his sword through it and the fireball explodes*

Shade: You still underestimate my power! *sends lightning bolts at Hamtaro*

Bijou: *jumps in front of Hamtaro and whirls her sword around and the lightning bolts get sucked into it, giving it thunder powers* *puts sword forward and shoots the lightning bolts back at Shade*

Shade: *knocks the lightning bolts away*

Hamtaro: He couldn't have!!

Bijou: No....!

Shade: I am much more powerful than before you slammed me into the wall.

Hamtaro: That won't make any difference!

Shade: Want to bet?!

Bijou: Yeah!

Shade: Then I'll finish you off early! *powers up*

Hamtaro: He's gonna send a wave of energy blasts at us!!

Bijou: What should we do?

Hamtaro: Stay behind me!

Shade: Grrr..... Take this! *starts sending waves of energy blasts at Hamtaro*

Hamtaro: *holds up sword and the blasts hit the sword and bounce off and ricochet back at Shade*

Shade: *turns on his energy field and the blasts disintegrate as they hit the shield*

Hamtaro: *starts to gain power as well*

Bijou: *runs back to James and Amy*

James: What's going on?!

Bijou: They're both gaining power! This will be one hell of a battle!

Amy: You said it!

Shade: Running away won't help you! Once I deal with Hamtaro, you all are next!

Hamtaro: So you think I'm going to lose to you that easily?

Shade: With all my power I haven't shown you yet, how hard could it be?

Hamtaro: You must be overconfident!

Shade: It is you who is overconfident! You think you can withstand my power?! Ha!

Hamtaro: Let's see what you can do then.

Shade: Gladly! *powers up and shoots a huge lightning bolt at Hamtaro*

Hamtaro: *holds out his paws to stop the blast, but it hits him and sends him reeling into the wall behind him*

Bijou: No!!

Shade: I told you that you were overconfident!

Hamtaro: *falls to the ground*

Bijou: Then it's my turn! *jumps into the air and twirls her katana around and then dashes at Shade*

Shade: *holds out paw and shoots a huge lightning bolt at Bijou and knocks her back as well*

Hamtaro: Bijou... *encounters a memory*

*Flashback/Memory*

Boss: Hamtaro, I know she loves you. And I am not mad at that fact, though I act it. I just get jealous because I liked Bijou. You just do me one favor - always take care of Bijou, no matter what.

Hamtaro: I promise I will take care of her forever.

Boss: You are a good friend, Hamtaro. I just wish I had a girl-ham...

Hamtaro: Don't worry, Boss. Someday, you will find one. You will. And when that time comes, everyone will be very happy for you.

Boss: Thanks for the encouragement, Hamtaro. Now go to Bijou. I know you want to go see her.

Hamtaro: I know. See ya Boss!

*End Flashback/Memory*

Hamtaro: *remembers!* I promised to take care of Bijou. And I won't break it! Shade!!! You'll pay! *jumps and glows rainbow, then dashes at lightning speed at Shade and slashes his sword, and Shade is knocked back into the wall*

Shade: *falls to the ground, and now has a cut on his side that is bleeding*

Hamtaro: *lands on his feet in the middle of the arena*

Shade: No...I cannot be defeated...I WILL not be defeated!! *gets up and dashes back onto the arena* *heals his cut and it stops bleeding and goes away* You will pay dearly for this, Hamtaro! *starts powering up, and he glows blood red with furiousness*

Hamtaro: *to himself* He must be going into his final form!! What do I do now?!

So Hamtaro has shown Shade his power, but now Shade seems to be transforming into his final form!! What will Hamtaro do now? And will Bijou heal? Find out on the next episode of A New Series of Hamtaro!

Sorry this wasn't much of an episode, but I didn't have much time and I wanted to get this ep on FF.Net. Well I'll be working on my FanFictions throughout the month of December! I hope to be able to get on here to update it a few times. Until then, I'll be working on more episodes of this FanFiction and my Bloopers Fic.
