Always Left Out

Chapter 8: The Battle

By Salamon2

Salamon2: Okay, I think I have an idea of how to end it!

Salamon: Yeah!  Is the ending this chapter?

Salamon2: Uggh... not that again!  NO!

Salamon: Aww... Well... anyway... Salamon2 doesn't own Digimon.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'Maybe I am who that girl thinks I am...' thought Kai

'No, how can you be two people, your Takai...' said another voice, sounding like that Digimon's master's voice, inside his head, it paused and then said 'Why fight what's happening, maybe if you let it happen, maybe something good will happen...' said the voice

'Maybe...'thought Kai and he let the weird machine do it's thing, more and more the bottle filled, until it was filled, he felt as though all of his energy had been drained from him, his body fell, weakly off the table and to the floor, next the girl, who now looked the same age as he was.  Now he was too weak to care what happened next.

~~~

            "Bring it to me now MarineDevimon..." said the orb, and then suddenly a red blur flashed by grabbing the bottle.

            "I'll be taking that, thank you!" said a girl with violet hair, flying on an Aquillamon.

            "GET HER!" shouted the orb

            "Catch me if you can slow poke!" shouted Yolei, her hair flying freely in the wind that she made going at this fast speed, she out flew MarineDevimon.

"Howling Blaster!" shouted Garurumon

            "Tail Hammer!" shouted Ankylomon    

            "Meteor Wing!" shouted Birdramon, all three attacks headed straight for the orb, but all three attacks had no affect, whatsoever, on it.

But then, all of a sudden, from the depths of the cave, something pulled at Aquillamon's talons and Yolei's grasp of the bottle fell out of her hands, and into a beam of light which carried it straight to the orb, it laughing evilly.  Yolei was shook off Aquillamon.

            "Good work LadyDevimon..." said the orb as the liquid drained from the capsule.  A bright light shown throughout the cave, the rest of Yolei's group, Sora and Birdramon, Matt and Garurumon, Gatomon, Cody and Ankylomon were engulfed in a bright light which transported them into separate platforms, Ken was transferred to where Yolei was, she now noticed she seemed to look like she was four, Cody, who looked normal, to where Ken had been, and Matt and Sora, both looking like they were seven, to their own platform. Their Digimon all became Digi-eggs and were put in the container full of Digi-eggs.  By this time the orb had finished drinking the bottle, and another wave of light emitted from its center, this one too bright for any of the children to keep their eyes open for.  When the light subsided only one figure floated where the orb had been, but no it couldn't be him... they had locked him away in the Dark Ocean.

~~~

            "Where am I???" asked a lonely Tokomon in the desert, he had been dropped as a Stingmon and a boy with two companions of theirs had been flying to rescue Kai.  He walked slowly, but steadily towards the direction the two Champion Digimon had flown.  Suddenly the Digimon tripped, and found a green D3 in the sand.  Suddenly a light shot from it and the young In-training Digimon digivolved to Patamon.

            'Whoa... I've got a migraine! Wait, what's a migraine?  Maybe T.K. will know' thought the young Digimon picking up the D3 in his mouth and started flying towards the two Champions direction.

~~~

            "Master, you have returned to all your glory!" said SkullSatanmon bowing before Daemon.

            "Yes... and now I'm more powerful... you Digidestined... don't stand a chance against me... prepare to feel your own power used against you!" he said.  And he centered his forces and then shouted "EVIL INFERNO!" aiming at the defensless children.

            'We can't be doomed!'

            'I won't die this way!'

            'This can't be happening!'

            'I'll find a way to stop him!'

            'I'll help any way I can!'

            'We have to make it through!'

            'What's happening?'

            'I can't fail my friends!'

            'Daemon must not win!'

            'I can't let this happen!'

...were the thoughts going through their heads.

But the attack did not hit the Digidestined, instead a light beam from each one aimed at the attack, creating a white shield of light, right in front of the attack, and the attack bounced off the shield and hit MarineDevimon, who instantly was Digideleted.  Daemon shot again and again, each time the shield moving to intercept the attack, by the time Daemon gave up, all of his henchmen were dead, and several holes showed the desert outside the cave.  Then the shield dissipated, and then Daemon grinned, and waved his hands, and the tops came down on the bottoms of the platforms, trapping the young Digidestined, in a small space, just enough for three, but a little extra room with only two inside, there were small holes so air could travel through.

"Now you are all my prisoners... apparently, even though I have drained from two of your comrades most of their crest powers, they still have a little of it left... it is apparent now that you must all die... now that you can't see me... your little shield technique won't help you now... death awaits for you..." said Daemon, circling the group of platforms, trying to decide which platform to destroy first.

~~~

            'I'm coming T.K...' thought Patamon, as he continued on his journey.

~~~

            "Eanny, meanny, minny, moe... catch a tiger by the toe... if he hollers... let him go... eanny, meanny, minny, moe!" said Daemon deciding which one to hit at random, moving his finger and pointing at a platform with every word said.

(Salamon's Note: WILL YOU JUST HURRY UP AND HAVE HIM ATTACK FOR GOSH SAKES!  THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME!

Salamon2's Note: I will have him attack when I want him to attack, who I want him to attack, and not when you say I should!

Salamon's Note: A bit in a bad mood are we?

Salamon2's Note: Be quiet before I have to send for you to go to your room without any supper...

Salamon's Note: yes daddy...)

~~~

            "I still can't find the Digidestined... I had their readings a while ago, all over the Digital World... now they're no where to be found..." said Gennai, as he bowed to Azulongmon, who lay on a rocky platform, unable to move, across from Gennai's rocky platform.

            "I grow weak Gennai... something has happened to Hope and Light... I can barely move... find them..." said Azulongmon as he fell unconscious.

            "I will Azulongmon... I will..." said Gennai, who rose immediately and left to head back to his home.

~~~

            'What's this?' thought Patamon, as he looked at the D3, which showed the rest of the group were not too far away.

~~~

            Kari, heard only muttering coming from above the platforms, she slowly moved, every muscle aking with every move.  She slowly sat up, and saw she was now four years old, and with T.K.... or Kai, whatever he called himself now... but that didn't matter, she could sense he was still the same person underneath... just a few memories rearranged.

            'What has he done to T.K.?' thought Kari as she just starred at Kai.

            'Oh the things I want to tell you... first off my apology... and then...' thought Kari, still starring at Kai.

            "AND NOW TO ATTACK!" shouted Daemon, and he shouted his attack and Kari waited for the impact, but it never came...

            "MATT!" cried Sora's voice.

~~~

            "MATT!" cried Sora, as the half of the platform that Matt had been on was destroyed, the seven-year-old Matt thrown into her seven-year-old arms, his body, lifeless.

            "NO! MATT!  DON'T BE DEAD!" cried out Sora, as she cried, trying to feel for a pulse on his neck.

            "That should have destroyed the whole platform, not just half, oh well... my aim must be off..." said Daemon ignoring her cries.

            "FIST OF THE BEAST KING!" shouted a voice from behind the demon, and the attack hit the back of the demon lord, who was knocked to the side, a little.

            "What!?  What is this?" asked Daemon turning around to see a Leomon, Elecmon, Frigimon, Pixiemon, Chuumon, Sukamon, Wizardmon, Centarumon, Meramon, Ogremon, and two human boys.

            "Someone called for backups..." said a boy with somewhat spiky brown hair.

            "... and we're it!" said the other, a blue haired, boy.

            "TAI!  JOE!" cried Sora seeing them, and their party.

            "Well, your pathetic attempt to stop me is useless... I out level all of you..." said Daemon

            "We don't care!  We are going to fight for the Digidestined's release!  Even if we have to die for it!" said Leomon

            "Pit Bomb!" said Pixiemon

            "Bone Cudgel!" said Ogremon

            "Fire Ball!" said Meramon

            "Super Thunder Strike!" said Elecmon

            "Whisper Voice!" said Chuumon

            "Solar Ray!" said Centarumon

            "Bomber!" said Sukamon

            "Thunder Ball!" said Wizardmon

            "Snow Ball!" said

            Daemon ducked, and most of the attacks missed.

            "Hah! You think you can just come charging in here and take them back that easily?  Well you're wrong! EVIL FLAPPING!"  The attack sent most Digimon flying out of the cave, except for Leomon, Ogremon, and Wizardmon.  "FOOLS!" shouted Daemon, as they stood their ground, ready to attack at any second.

            "You will not win Daemon..." said Tai courageously

            "Wait a minute... Tai, give me your digivice..." said Leomon, and Tai obeyed the lion Digimon.

            "LEOMON... WARP DIGIVOLVE TO SABER LEOMON!" shouted Leomon as he digivolved from champion to mega.

            "This changes the odds a bit..." said Joe, smirking, Tai a little astonished.

            "No... this can't be happening..." said Daemon in disbelief, backing up.

            "Time to end this once and for all!  TWIN FANG!" shouted SaberLeomon, the attack hit Daemon and he fell.

~~~

            'Please Tai... win... for me and T.K.... I don't think we can last much longer...' thought Kari, who felt Kai's pulse, which was very weak, and her strength leaving her.

~~~

            "Magical Game!" shouted Wizardmon

            "Pummel Whack!" shouted Ogremon, their attacks now taking more effect on the weaker Daemon.

"EVIL INFERNO!" shouted Daemon, aiming for SaberLeomon's belly, and hitting it, digideleting the poor Digimon.  And suddenly, surprising both Tai and Joe, a great beam of light came from Kari's and Kai's dying bodies.

~~~

            'T.K.??" thought Patamon, as the light surrounded him

            "PATAMON WARP DIGIVOLVE TO... SERAPHIMON!" shouted Patamon as he warp digivolved.

~~~

            "Now what, still think you have a chance?  Since that light contained the dying powers of hope and light, and since I've taken most of theirs, it just rehealed me, and with your mega gone, you're doomed now... prepare for the reign of darkness!" shouted Daemon

            "SEVEN HEAVENS!" shouted Seraphimon, his attack hitting Daemon right in the heart

            "Oh, you think your powers are any match for me Seraphimon, when I have the powers of the crest that powers you, running in my veins... no... this means... sadly that I cannot destroy you, and you cannot destroy me..." said Daemon

            'There has to be a way...' thought Tai

            "And now, if there are no more distractions... I'll destroy you pests immediately... you were all very amusing, while you lasted, even after I possessed the boy you called Davis, to send Hope into solitude... which led you all here, for me to capture you all, one by one... Good Bye you insects!" said Daemon, but before he could attack, again the lights from the Digidestined, each one showing a different light, as their crests came from their chests, passed through the platform covers, and surrounded Daemon in the light.  And then a white light surrounded Daemon, the shouts of pain came from the Demon Digimon, as two lights, one yellow, and one pink, they came out of Demon and flew right into a platform.  "NO!" said the Demon, as Seraphimon chose the right moment as the lights faded away and he came charging towards Daemon screaming "SEVEN HEAVENS!" and the attack went straight through the Digimon, deleting him.  And the cave vanished, leaving twelve teenagers, and twenty-two Digimon lying in the sand.
