HOW CAN I LET YOU GO-CHAPTER FIVE

Duskmon squeezed Kouji tightly as he struggled to breathe. Just then, the Digidestineds and Lilly arrive. Tai asked, "Lilly? How did you come?" Lilly just stared at what was happening......

Ken spoke up, "Kouichi, let go of your brother! Can't you recognise him? I know you're under control of Myotismon, but you are a human and he is just a Digimon. A human being's power is definitely stronger than Digimon's just that you need to push the evil away!! I was once taken control by him, but I beat him with the help of my friends! Kouichi, we're trying to help you to get out of Myotismon's spell! We all know you can do it!" Duskmon looked at him with blank eyes. He snared, "There's no use! I chose to go to Myotismon! It's my will!!" He threw Kouji onto the ground. Shutumon appeared behind him and Duskmon put his arm around her waist. He continued, "Shutumon will be my queen and we will rule the sorlds with Myotismon." He laughed evilly and Shutumon glared at the Digidestineds. Tai couldn't take it any longer, "That stupid Myotismon! How dare he used two of our friends! Everybody, show time!!"

The Digimon all Digivolved and fought. Duskmon and Shutumon showed no fear at all. Lilly knelt beside Kouji whose eyes were half opened. He was breathing heavily. She grasped his hand. Kouji whispered, "I lost...everything..my brother and Takuya...It's my fault. I shouldn't have let Takuya to come with me in the first place...Takuya, I'm sorry." Kouji let out a sigh...blood from his wounds was flowing out. Lilly whispered, "Kouji, please tell me you're OK...I'm here now with you..." He hugged his cold body against hers. The fight was cruel, but Duskmon handled them with ease.

Takuya opened his eyes. "I thought I was dead but why.."he whispered. He looked around. Indeed, he was in the magma. He did not feel the heat, it was just...well..normal. He stared at the Digivice. The Spirit of Fire was flashing, as if something was here. He heard footsteps towards him, he turned around.... There stood a Digimon with parts of Agnimon and Vitramon combined together. He asked, "Who are you?" The Digimon replied, "I am Ardhamon, Takuya. You are the Frontier of Fire and I come here because it is time for you to receive new power." Takuya blinked and replied, "New power? Does that mean that I can defeat Myotismon?" Arhamon nodded and added, "But not alone, Takuya. With your partner together." Takuya immediately thought of Kouji. He stared at his friend's blood stains on his glove. "I wonder if he's...alive..." Ardhamon said, "Takuya, receive my new power!" Takuya held out his Digivice. Fire wrapped around his body. New power and extreme hear revealed the now Warrior of Fire. "I'm coming, Kouji.." He spread out his wings and sped up from the magma.

The Digimon were running out of power. Some de-digivolved and lay on the ground helpness. Duskmon laughed, "Dear me! So weak! I don't even have to evolve to Velgmon to finish you off!" He looked around, his enemies were defeated. He turned to Shutumon and grinned, "My dear Shutumon, thank you for all you did for me!" He grabbed her close and whispered, "Now, give your soul and power to me!" Shutumon's eyes widened, "What? I-I thought you loved me, Duskmon!" Duskmon evilly, "Love doesn't exist! To me, power is my most wanted thing in the world! Farewell, you pathetic creature!" He took the last bit of power from Shutumon and she de- digivolved into Izumi. Duskmon stared at the unconscious girl in his arms. "I-Izumi?" A glimpse of memory flashed in his mind. But then, he grunted his teeth and threw her down.
