I'm sorry if this chapter took a while, but I've gotten hooked on Wind Waker, which has taken up a lot of my time. Sorry for any delay!
Disclaimer: See last chapter.
BlackWarGreymon: Last time, I paused in my quest to save a town from a pair of destructive Rinkmon. Needless to say, I set them straight. I then joined up with the other Digidestined at China Town, where the final Destiny Stone was nearby. I would have set off immediately, but the others had to eat, so we stopped at a restaurant. While there, I received a fortune cookie foretelling my future, and Arukenimon and Mummymon showed up to spoil lunch! They ran away, but I went after them in hot pursuit. I will see to it that those two will never do evil again…
BlackWarGreymon burst out of the bamboo jungle, entering a large clearing. The jeep was parked nearby, vacant. In the middle of the clearing was a big spring of fresh water. In the center of the spring was the seventh and final Destiny Stone. Arukenimon and Mummymon were approaching the Stone, unaware of the Dinosaur's presence. He decided to change that. "Terra Destroyer!" BlackWarGreymon hurled an energy ball at the jeep, blasting it to smithereens! That got the villains' attention.
Mummymon took one look at the burning wreck and fell to his knees, tears streaming from his single eye as he cried uncontrollably. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! My poor, precious ba-a-a-a-a-aby!"
Arukenimon groaned. "Oh great, now he's going to be crying for the next twenty minutes."
"I loved it as if it were mine and Arukenimon-Chan's love child…" the Ghost whimpered.
BlackWarGreymon took a step forward. "You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this day, witch. You have no Control Spire Digimon with you. No tricks. No escape routes. Nothing will stop me from making sure you never threaten this world or my friends ever again."
The Insectoid grinned. "Don't be so sure. I still have a trick or two up my sleeve…"
The Digidestined burst into their clearing, along with their partners. "How did you get away from Digitamamon?" asked BlackWarGreymon.
Ken held up a credit card. "We found out he took credit cards. Good thing I never leave home without my Digi-Express!"
Arukenimon giggled. "So, all you rodents are here in one place. That'll make it easier for us to squash you like the flies you are!"
"Yeah? You and what army?" challenged Paildramon.
"Uh, Paildramon? What if she actually has an army?" said Spidermon.
"She has no army. She used up all the Control Spires left in the Digital World during the last battle. I'm the only living remnant of those dark towers." Said BlackWarGreymon.
The spider nodded. "Quite right. However, just because I'm out of Spires doesn't mean I'm finished. We still have our trump card, don't we Mummymon?"
"I only had six more payments to make…" Mummymon sobbed.
Arukenimon growled and kicked him. "Get up! We've got work to do!" He fell over, continuing his wailing. "Oh for the love of…come on, the jeep would want you to avenge its demise!"
Mummymon thought that over, then got up. "Right! Let's show those jeep-breaking ingrates what we can do!"
Arukenimon grinned and tore a huge hank of hair off. She flung the hair into the air, which slowly started to drift down. "Spirit Needle!" The hairs stiffened and shot towards the two evil Digimon, piercing their bodies. The Ghost and Insectoid stood there for a moment, pierced by the needles, then began glowing. There was a flash of light, and then...
"Arukenimon Digivolve to…Babamon!"
"Mummymon Digivolve to…Pharaohmon!"
Babamon was, in essence, nothing more than a little old lady. She wore a long green cloak with a repeating diamond pattern on the front. Purple-nailed hands came from her long sleeves. She held what looked to be a large broomstick in her right hand. She had gray skin and a face that was featureless except for a stitched-up mouth. She had pointy elf ears sticking out from her gray hair, which was done up in a bun with a pin through it. She wore a pink bead necklace with the Crest of Light on it around her neck.
DIGIMON ANALYSER
Davis: Babamon may look like a kindly old grandmother, but she's far from harmless. Her Dark Broom and Empress Haze attacks make her the meanest old woman in the world! (Even worse than my grandma!)
Pharaohmon, on the other hand, looked much more intimidating. He was tall, covered from head to toe in golden bandages. His feet ended in claws, with red shin guards strapped on above them. He wore a red and gold belt with a loincloth hanging down to the ground. He wore a white cape reminiscent to Piccolo's, and several bead necklaces hung down to his chest. He wore gold bracelets encircling red wrist guards around his wrists. His face was hidden behind a golden burial mask, and he carried a huge golden body-length sarcophagus lid for a shield.
DIGIMON ANALYSER
Yolei: Pharaohmon is a Digimon freshly awakened from a thousand-year slumber. His Necro Mist and Tut Ankh Rail attacks make him a truly powerful ancient Wizard.
The good guy's jaws dropped. "H-how did they Digivolve?" stuttered Cody.
Babamon cackled. "The boss added another program to my needles so that I could make any Digimon I wanted to Digivolve! Thanks to this ability, Mummymon and I now have the ability to destroy you once and for all!"
Silphymon laughed. "Ha! We've defeated you losers before; we can do it again! So you've Digivolved, so what? There's seven of us and two of you, there's no way we're going to lose!"
Pharaohmon chuckled. "You really believe that? Babamon, I think it's time we initiated our plan, don't you?"
The witch grinned. "I quite agree, Pharaohmon. Empress Haze!" She belched out a huge blast of fire.
"Tut Ankh Rail!" His burial mask's mouth gaped open, spewing several dozen razor-edged and explosive ankhs.
The Digidestined gasped as the two attacks instantly wiped out their Digimon! BlackWarGreymon looked at the floating clouds of data that had once been his friends in disbelief. That soon turned to anger. "Congratulations. You've just sealed your fates."
The duo laughed. "Oh, I wouldn't be so sure of that!" said Babamon.
"Observe! Necro Mist!" Pharaohmon started waving his hands. A black mist formed, enveloping the clouds of scattered data. When the mist vanished, the six Ultimate Digimon had been reborn!
"He brought them back from the dead!" said the awed TK.
"But that's impossible! We're nowhere near Primary Village, and they weren't even Digi-eggs. How did he do that?" asked Kari.
"A better question is why did he do it?" asked Cody sagely.
"I'll tell you why!" crowed Pharaohmon. "My Necro Mist ability allows me to not only resurrect fallen Digimon, but bend them to my will. Your partners will now do everything we tell them to! These six should prove to be worthy opponents for you, BlackWarGreymon."
BlackWarGreymon didn't look worried. "Even if they are under your control, they are too weak to defeat me. What makes you think you can win?"
Babamon sneered. "How about this?" She plucked several hairs from her head. "Spirit Needle!" The hairs stiffened and pierced the bodies of the reborn Digimon. They started to glow.
"Paildramon Digivolve to…"
"Spidermon Digivolve to…"
"Silphymon Digivolve to…"
"Shakkoumon Digivolve to…"
"MagnaAngemon Digivolve to…"
"Angewomon Digivolve to…"
"Imperialdramon!" (EVERYONE should know what this guy looks like.)
"CyberSpidermon!" CyberSpidermon looked a bit like Spidermon, except for a few differences. He wore a short, ragged web cape on his back. The web patterns on his costume had vanished, turning into circuit board designs. He wore complex metal wristbands with spiders engraved in them and a utility belt of sorts. Also, his colors had gone from red and blue to black and green.
"Valkyrimon!" Valkyrimon was a tall, human-looking Digimon in a white bodysuit. Blue cloth hung from a belt, covering part of his right leg. He had gold-tipped boots and kneecaps, and a gold sword in a scabbard hung from the aforementioned belt. Several large feathers grew from his back, forming a kind of cape. A crossbow was strapped to the back of his "cape." A gold diamond-shaped shield was strapped to his left arm, a small gold bird of prey was perched on his right arm, and his upper face was hidden behind an eagle-shaped helmet with little wings growing from it.
"Vikemon!" Vikemon was a huge, hairy gray beast vaguely reminiscent of Zudomon. A red banner hung from his belt, going down to the ground. A furry tail like a wolf's grew from his rear. Belts crisscrossed his chest, holding a large brown bearskin over his shoulders and back. Round metal shields protected his shoulders. His lower arms had several belts wrapped around them, and rings were on his thick fingers. Two big maces were attached to his back. His beady blue eyes shone out from his shaggy, fanged face. A small horned helmet sat on top of his head.
"Seraphimon!" (Everyone who's seen the Digimon Movie should know what he looks like.)
"Magnadramon!" (See above.)
DIGIMON ANALYSER
Davis: Imperialdramon is the legendary King of all Dragons! (At least, that's what he claims.) He covers the skies of the Digital World with his wings and deletes evil with his Positron Laser and Mega Crusher attacks!
Ken: CyberSpidermon is a one of a kind Android Digimon who excels at exploring the Internet. He can fire E-mails loaded with deadly viruses and use his Web Surfer attack to delete those annoying pop-up ads from your computer forever!
Yolei: Valkyrimon is rumored to have the power to revive heroes fallen in battle and restore them as Digi-eggs. (It's not true, but it makes for a good story!) His Feral Sword attack can turn anything to ice with one swipe!
Cody: Vikemon is a powerful pirate from the distant north. This is reflected in his Viking Axe and Arctic Blizzard attacks!
TK: Seraphimon is one of the three Celestial Angel Digimon. His special attack, Strike of the Seven Stars, cleanses evil with seven balls of light! (Which almost makes up for its incredibly corny name.)
Kari: Magnadramon is one of the four great Dragon Digimon. She severs evil with her great strength and her Fire Tornado attack! (Wonder who the other three great dragons are.)
"Well, BlackWarGreymon? Are they still too weak to defeat you?" asked Babamon mockingly.
BlackWarGreymon took a long look at the six Megas before giving his answer. "Too weak? Hah! They wouldn't stand five minutes against me."
"Well, why don't we test that theory? Attack!" yelled Pharaohmon. The six Megas charged towards BlackWarGreymon.
He leaped into the air, causing the six to crash into each other. He instantly formed a huge energy ball. "Terra Destroyer!" The blast struck the six Digimon, causing an explosion that obscured them from view.
As the blast dissipated, the six Digimon, only marginally damaged, attacked at once.
"Poshitron Lasher!" Imperialdramon fired a huge laser from the cannon mounted on his back.
"E-Mail Virus!" CyberSpidermon hurled E-mail icons from his wristbands.
"Lightning Arrow!" Valkyrimon whipped out his crossbow and shot a high-voltage arrow.
"Arctic Blizzard!" Vikemon opened his mouth wide and let loose a great blast of ice breath.
"Strike of the Seven Stars!" Seraphimon made weird motions with his hands, causing seven balls of light to appear. The balls hurtled at their intended target.
"Dragon Fire!" Magnadramon let loose a huge amount of flame from her mouth.
BlackWarGreymon instantly pulled out his Dark Brave Shield. His trusty shield once again proved its strength, withstanding the six powerful attacks with barely a scratch. He put the shield back on his back and prepared himself for the next strike.
Vikemon reached for his weapons. "Viking Axe!" He hurled the maces at BlackWarGreymon. The Dinosaur deflected the first mace with his arm shield and grabbed the second one as it flew towards him. He dropped towards Vikemon and swung the mace, smashing the startled Beast's skull in! He was deleted instantly, and the mace went with him a few seconds later.
"Feral Sword!" BlackWarGreymon spun around immediately, catching Valkyrimon's sword between his hands before it could slice open his helmet. The blade felt extremely cold to the touch, and started to freeze the Dinosaur's hands. BlackWarGreymon quickly kicked Valkyrimon in the stomach, causing him to lose his grip on the sword. Before the Warrior could recover his strength, BlackWarGreymon drove his Dramon Killers into Valkyrimon's chest, killing him.
"Fire Tornado!" Out of the corner of his eye, he could see Magnadramon starting to spin, generating flames from her body. He grabbed Valkyrimon's sword as it began to disintegrate and hurled it at the Holy Dragon. His aim was true, and the sword imbedded itself in Magnadramon's forehead, freezing her to ice just before it was completely deleted.
BlackWarGreymon started spinning. "Black Tornado!" He drilled into the frozen Dragon, smashing her to pieces. He came out of the spin, facing the other three Megas. "I've defeated three Megas in less than a minute. Not bad." He charged towards the remaining three, intending to prove his earlier assessment on their strength correct.
The Digidestined were appalled. "What is he doing?" asked a shocked TK.
"He killed Gatomon like she was just another Control Spire Digimon…" whispered Kari.
"I was right about him after all. He really is a monster!" said Cody angrily.
Yolei stared at her friends in disbelief. "What is with you people?" she said. They all looked at her. "BlackWarGreymon's trying to save the world here and all you're doing is whining about how he's killing our partners! Big deal! Do you have any idea what would be happening if he wasn't fighting? Our own partners would kill us, then destroy the Destiny Stone over there!"
"They would never do that!" protested Davis.
"No, wait a minute." Ken said suddenly. "Maybe they would. What Kari said isn't far off. BlackWarGreymon killed Gatomon like she was just another Control Spire Digimon because in a way, she is just another Control Spire Digimon! Haven't you ever read stories about the undead? You can resurrect the flesh, but not the soul! Those Digimon that look like our partners are nothing but mindless shells created from Pharaohmon and Babamon's dark magic, just like the Control Spires! Our real partners are probably halfway to rebirth at Primary Village by now."
"Then…that Vikemon he killed wasn't Armadillomon?" asked Cody.
"No way!" said Yolei.
"If that's the case, then what are we doing moping around? Let's cheer him on! If he's doing something as courageous as taking on six Megas at once, the least we can do is provide some support instead of getting angry at him!" said Davis.
"Yeah, go BlackWarGreymon!" yelled Kari. The others soon joined in.
"Web Surfer!" CyberSpidermon hopped onto an energy board and surfed through the air towards BlackWarGreymon, leaving a trail of numerals and letters behind him. He swerved in front of the Dinosaur, causing a huge energy wave to ripple towards BlackWarGreymon.
He used his Dark Brave Shield to ride out the wave until it dissipated, then charged up an energy ball. "Terra Destroyer!" The ball stuck the surfboard, destroying it and launching CyberSpidermon face first into the Destiny Stone. The impact killed him instantly.
BlackWarGreymon cracked his knuckles and glared at Seraphimon and Imperialdramon. "Who's next?"
Imperialdramon roared and flew into the air. "Poshitron Lasher!" The cannon fired an incredible laser beam at the Dinosaur.
BlackWarGreymon started spinning. "Black Tornado!" He drilled his way straight through the laser and into the cannon, causing it to explode and destroy Imperialdramon! He flew out of the explosion, his armor scorched and tarnished, and faced Seraphimon. "Looks like it's just you and me, Angel."
Seraphimon's armor began to glow in response to the taunt. "Testament!" To BlackWarGreymon's surprise, ornate iron bonds materialized and slammed onto his armor, immobilizing him. The Angel then started motioning with his hands. "Strike of the Seven Stars!"
The seven balls of light struck BlackWarGreymon, causing damage to his armor. However, they also destroyed his bonds! Free, he shot towards Seraphimon, slamming into the Angel. Before Seraphimon could recover, BlackWarGreymon planted his hands on the Angel's chest and gathered energy. "Terra Destroyer!"
The resulting explosion completely annihilated Seraphimon and hurled BlackWarGreymon into the bamboo at the edge of the clearing. He dug a short trench through the fragile bamboo before he could stop himself. He got up and strode towards Babamon and Pharaohmon, ignoring the cheers from the Digidestined. Although his chest armor was almost completely shattered by his point-blank Terra Destroyer and some of the cables holding the armor together were damaged and squirting black fluid, he was still well enough to fight the two evil Megas. "I defeated your servants in four minutes and thirty seconds. As I said before, they were too weak to defeat me. I imagine that neither of you will pose much more of a threat then they did."
To his surprise, the duo laughed. "Are you sure you've won?" asked Pharaohmon. "Necro Mist!" His black mist swirled up, bringing all the scattered data together. When the mist dissipated, the six Megas were back, as good as new!
"What…how…"
Babamon grinned. "Don't you understand, BlackWarGreymon? Pharaohmon's Necro Mist can raise the dead an infinite number of times. That way, he can bring back every Digimon you've killed here with a wave of his hand. The only way to stop it is to keep him from making any more mist."
"Then that's what I shall do!" The Dinosaur started to run towards the duo.
But before he could get there, Imperialdramon crashed down in front of him and knocked him away with a sweep of his giant claws. "My pets are very loyal to me. Any attack you attempt on me or Babamon will be countered, sad to say. As long as they live, we're safe from your wrath. And since they can never really die thanks to my mist, you'll never be able to lay a single claw on us." Said Pharaohmon.
"Oh, and before I forget…" said Babamon. She ripped out several hairs. "Spirit Needle!" The hairs stiffened and shot towards the zombie Megas, sinking into their skin. They glowed briefly, then looked fiercer than before. "Every time Pharaohmon resurrects a Digimon with his Necro Mist, I will contribute ten of my hairs to give that Digimon a power boost. It may take a while, but this will eventually make our servants so powerful that you won't be able to defeat them!"
"And once you fall," said Pharaohmon, "There will be nobody left to stop us. We will destroy the Destiny Stone allowing our boss to enter the Digital World and reassert his true form as the Ultimate Evil MaloMyotismon! With all opposition washed away, and with our unbeatable army of the undead here, he will have enough power to conquer both worlds!"
"Try as you might, you can't defeat us! So, prepare yourself BlackWarGreymon, for your short life has finally come to an end!" said Babamon.
Is there any way BlackWarGreymon can defeat this deathless evil? Can he protect the Destiny Stone? Will MaloMyotismon come to the Digital World? Will I ever shut up? Can anyone tell me how to get a good mortgage? How much wood can a woodchuck-
Me: Aha! I've found you at last! BlackWarGreymon, destroy the announcer dude!
BWG: With pleasure! (Starts chasing the screaming announcer guy.)
Me: Finally, done with this chapter! Don't expect another one for a while, exams are coming up. Here's some fanmail!
…

…
Wait, there's nothing interesting. Wait, I know! Cut to BlackWarGreymon.
BWG: (Holding announcer dude by the foot.) At last, I shall exact my vengeance!
AD: Noooo! Please don't hurt me! I have a picture of a wife and three kids!
BWG: Too bad. (Prepares to gut announcer dude.)
AD: Will I be gutted like a fish? Is this the end of my career? Find out on the next- (BWG kills him.)
Me: See you next time!
