A/N: Thank you for all the reviews! I have Writer's block as you all know so I'll be trying my best to write!

Shadow: Nobody will want to read this. *reading a magazine*

Me: ;_; R-Really? Please read! Oh, and Happy New Year!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN DIGIMON, YYH, OR DBZ! Although I wish I did. Not, DBZ though.

Chapter 10~ Nobody's POV

As everybody watched on in sadness, anger, and worry, they noticed the flames slowing changing colors. First black, then silver, and finally, white. Through the white flames, a figure could be seen making unreadable signs.

~WHOOSH~

"What the…" Kazu yelled, raising his arms to try to block the flames from scorching him.

The flames had suddenly blown apart, revealing Henry in the middle, safe and sound. (I bet you expected that.) Forming symbols again, Henry gained control of the flames and created a cage of flames around the group.

Mel's POV~

Tensing, I sensed several evil/darker ki's surrounding us. (I am taking a leaf out of DBZ and YYH) Immediately, I could tell that Evils were nearby. Calming down, I reached out my own ki and brushed gently against our visitors.

//Well, I'll be damned. Whaddya know? It's twiddle-dee-dee and twiddle-dee-dum (Alice In Wonderland, people!) Aka, dumb and dumber, aka Brian and Bryant. The two twins of Evil (that doesn't sound right, ya know), stupidity, and sheer Evil power. \\

"MEL! Hello? Answer me!" Kazu yelled, shaking me. Irritated, I shoved him away from me.

"On your guard, idiots! We have some company! Evil company," I snapped, shifting into a fighting position. The group immediately switched from faintly annoyed to defensive and ready.

"Careful you guys, these are S class Evils! (Yes, that is also from YYH. Did I forget to mention how much I love YYH?)" Rika cried, narrowing her eyes and forming an ice spear in her hand.

Scowling, I yelled at the terrible two and said, "Come out, Brian and Bryant! We know you're here so you'd better come out and face us! Of course, unless you're too scared…"

Two forms jumped out of the shadows and stood in front of us, examining us carefully. Brian was tall and slender, with spiky brown hair and piercing green eyes. He was wearing blue and lots of it. A blue trenchcoat, muscle shirt (exactly what is a muscle shirt?), tennis shoes, socks, jeans, and a blue chain that wrapped around Brian's middle.

Bryant, on the other hand, was wearing a lot of green. Same as his twin, but everything in green with a baseball cap. He too had spiky brown hair and green eyes.

"Why, hello there Mel! Fancy seeing you here. How'd you get them to trust you? After all, you did betray your own family! Not to mention your own race," Brian said, smirking.

"Mel, what's he talking about? What are you hiding from us?" Ryo asked me, upset. I immediately felt ashamed and guilty and lowered my head.

"Oh my god Mel! You haven't TOLD them yet? How you are actually an Evil and not a Mystic? How you spent years spying on them and giving us their secrets? I don't believe you! How could you not tell your friends that? Much less your own boyfriend!" Bryant said, feigning surprise while thoroughly enjoying this.

//Those bastards! They are so dead! \\

//Mel! No! Don't you dare attack them! \\

//What the? Henry!? Is that you? \\

//Yes, it's me. \\

//Why can't I attack them!? \\

//Because, they are telling the truth and you are only attacking them out of anger and fury. Don't you see? That's exactly what they're trying to do! They're taunting you so you'll attack them! \\

//… \\

Damn, why did Henry always have to be right? How does HE know that the terrible two are telling the truth anyway? Oh, yeah. I forgot. He knows everything.

//No, I don't, actually. I had a hint that you weren't pure Mystic and had Evil in you, but I couldn't figure out why. \\

//GET OUTTA MY HEAD!!! Please? \\

*Quiet laughter inside Mel's head*

//Sorry. \\

//No, you're not. \\

No answer.

"Shut up, bastards! You have no right coming here and blabbing out my private life to everyone!" I screamed, furious.

"Mel…" Ryo whispered, looking lost, confused, hurt, and angry. Mentally, I winced and prayed that Ryo would still love me even after this.

"Oh really now? So I guess it was OK for you to go ahead and betray your own family and race but it's not OK for us to blab about your not-so-secret past, huh," Brian said, glaring at me. Unfortunately, he had a point but there was no way in hell would I ever admit that.

"Why don't you two just leave? There is nothing here for you to discover and bring back to your Master," Henry said, icily.

"Oh no, we can't do that! Our Great Lord wants YOU, Henry, to come join us. If you join us, you'll gain ultimate power and also have a hand in ruling over the land of Evil and control all Mystics. So what do you say? If it's no, then we'll have to destroy you," Bryant snapped, getting back to business.

Coolly, Henry crossed his arms over his chest and leaned back against a tree. Briefly closing his eyes, he seemed to be deep in thought.

//Well? What is he waiting for? He isn't seriously considering joining them, is he? Dammit Heny! Make up your freakin' mind already! \\

//MEL! \\

Startled, I jumped and looked frantically around me. Brian and Bryant narrowed their eyes and reached out their ki to see what could have disturbed me. Henry took that opportunity to throw a shield around us and attack.

"WHAT THE HECK!?" Brian screamed. He was, literally, on fire. Bryant quickly doused out his twin with water and whipped around to glare at Henry.

"So that's who it's going to be, is it? Fine then. You're no match for us!" Bryant snapped.

"Want to bet? You're mine, greenie!" Rika shouted joyfully.

//She seriously needs to get out more. \\

"Everybody let's go!" Brian shouted, bringing his arm down to point down at the ground. (Think of Mr. Referee in Medabots.)

All at once, many more Evils popped out of the shadows. Immediately, they threw their attacks at us but their attacks sizzled out on contact with Henry's shield he had put up earlier.

//Henry! Bring that shield down now! \\ I screamed in my mind at Henry. Flinching from the volume of my screams in his mind, he quickly brought the shield down to allow our volley of attacks straight at the Evils. However, the Evils noticing Henry's slight hesitation because he was still slightly out of it (remember the scream in his mind? Think of it, it must've hurt like heck!), threw a magical net around it that was laced through with the Evil Lord's power. Henry threw a shield around him and started to attack the net with all his might but all his efforts were in vain.

"Henry! You-you bastards! Attacking someone when they aren't even ready!" Takato yelled, growing in size. My eyes widened as I realized that Takato was shifting to his true form.

//Ah, shit. \\

"Blizzard!" I yelled even as I backed away from Takato. Several Evils were successfully frozen and Ryo finished them off with his own lightning attack.

"Hydro Spear!" Rika yelled, launching an extremely sharp and cold spear at Bryant.

"I don't think so! Steel Malice!" Bryant cried, launching his own attack at Rika.

The two attacks crashed into each other, canceling each other out. When the dust cleared, Rika could be seen with an ice sword in her hands striking down at Bryant.

"AHHHHH!!!" Bryant cried, as Rika's sword sliced cleanly through him. Both halves of Bryant stood there for a minute before toppling over. His face would be forever contorted into an image of pain, fury, and pure terror. Shivering slightly, I marked myself with the symbol of 'Light' and hurried off to finish other opponents.

//I hope I'll never have to kill like that. \\

"RROAWR!" Takato roared, sweeping his tail around easily killing off half of the Evils. Trying not to get hit by Takato's tail, I didn't notice the net that was descending around me until too late.

"AHH!" I screamed, accidentally touching the net. Strong currents of Evil power ran through my veins and body like electricity. It was as if I was being electrocuted.

"Mel! Oh no!" Rika cried, just as another net descended around her, trapping Juri along with her.

"Kenta! Behind you!" Kazu yelled fending off his own attackers.

"Wha-?" Kenta muttered, turning around and throwing up a shield just in time.

"Stay away from me, you Evil freaks! Hiyah!" Kazu shouted, kicking an Evil in the face, cracking his (the Evil's), skull on the rock behind him. "Oh yeah! I rule! DAMMIT!"

"Kazu you idiot! You should've kept your guard up!" Kenta shouted angrily.

"Kenta! Watch your back!" Ryo shouted at Kenta just as a net descended over an unsuspecting Kenta.

"LET MY FRIENDS GO RIGHT THIS INSTANT!" Takato yelled, enraged. He let out a river of molten lava that killed all Evils who did not manage to move in time.

Eyes flashing dangerously, Brian raised his arms up and chanted, "La pluie, la glace, sleet, et vigoureux! Me venir et me donne votre pouvoir! Relâchement!" (you can find the translation at the bottom of this chapter, by the way.)

Brian thrust out his arms at Takato (Think of DBZ and when they attack) and released a sheet of rain, ice, hail, and sleet; effectively freezing Takato causing him to transform back into his human form. However, the damage was already done. Takato had decimated all but three Evils. There were not enough Evils to be able to capture Ryo and Takato since Ryo had taken up a protective position over Takato.

"Take one more step and I swear none of you will live to see the next sunrise," Ryo hissed, eyes flashing dangerously. The air around him started to crackle with energy and flashes of light could be seen in his aura. Lightning also crackled across Ryo's arms and up and down his body. One foolish Evil took a step towards Ryo and all that was left of him was a pile of dust. Ryo had attacked the Evil with his most famous, and powerful, attack; Heaven's Lightning. (Crappy name, ne?)

//Stupid Evil. I'm so sorry Ryo…I'm so sorry I didn't tell you the truth about me. I bet you hate me now but, please, please forgive me… \\ I whispered in my mind, struggling to stay awake.

//Mel, I forgive you and I could never hate you. I love you too much for that, Mel! Oh Seraphymon, please hang on Mel! Don't leave me, please! Mel? Mel! \\

//Ryo, thank you, and I love you too. Do me a favor and get Takato out of here! Then come and rescue us but when you do, don't kill ALL the Evils. Leave some for me! I love you, Ryo. \\ I managed to send back to Ryo, before collapsing onto the ground, my vision darkening.

"Mel, I love you and I swear I'll get you back no matter what the cost!" was the last thing I heard in from Ryo as I finally fell unconscious and Ryo teleported away with Takato.

A/N: Oh no! What are going to happen to them now? *laughs evilly* I finally got rid of my Writer's Block have way through this chapter! Okay, now to enlighten you on…parts of this chapter. First off!

The levels of Evils and Mystics: Remember I mentioned something about "master level" for Mystics? Yeah, well Evil levels are classified as "classes". Like in YYH. Here, I'll give you the level line-up for both Mystics and Evils:

Mystic Evil

Preliminary A class

Pre-juvenile B class

Juvenile C class

Novice S- class

Intermediate S class

Junior S+ class

Senior S++ class

Master Quest class

(I took most of these from figure skating) (I took most of these from YYH. Others, I made up)

Mel, since she comes from Evil lineage but is now a Mystic since she defaulted to that side, would be at Senior level Mystic and S++ class Evil.

"La pluie, la glace, sleet, et vigoureux! Me venir et me donne votre pouvoir! Relâchement!" translates to: Rain, ice, sleet, and hale! Come to me and give me your power! Release!

;_; I'm so sorry, Henry, Mel, Rika, Juri, Kenta, and Kazu! It's going to get better, I promise!

Henry: Yeah, right. -_-' Why do I have to be the one everybody wants? Can't it be Takato or somebody else?

Me: But, but you're so adorable and such a wonderful person to torture! ^_^

Takato: Aw, Henry! Come on, I'll make you feel better! *grabs Henry and runs of to who-knows-where to do you-know-what*

Me: Anybody else have any complaints about their part in my fic so far? *looks around and sees Rika and Juri playing tonsil hockey while Rika is giving me a death glare* Ookay…. Kenta? Kazu? What about you guys? _Where_ are you guys? *frantically looks around for them and hears some-sounds coming from a closet* O.O I do not want to know. I seriously don't. Ryo? Mel? How about you two?

Mel: I'm okay!

Ryo: Me too!

*the two of them start French kissing, happily oblivious to everybody else*

Me: ;_; I'm all alone! *hugs YuGiOh! deck and Shadow to herself*

Shadow: O.O LET GO OF ME, ONNA! (Wufei!) I SAID _LET_ _GO_! JAOU ENSATSU KO…

Me: eeps! OK! OK! Don't you _dare_ use that in here! *grabs a katana and starts chasing Shadow* Read and review, peoples! Thanx
