Leaving Kazemon, Kumamon and Patamon comfort Eva's mother, the others headed back to the Seal room where they were able to venture into Eva's soul... Erm, what will happen next...?
DIGIMON FRONTIER:THE REVIVAL OF VALMARMON!
EPISODE 10:ValEyemon's Wrath!!! Takuya's Painful Choice!!!
By Ninetalesuk.
Agunimon, Lobomon, Beetlemon, Lowemon, ExVeemon, Bokomon and Neemon ventured through a weird dimension that is said to be Eva's soul...
Eva, a young female Eevee hybrid and daughter of Flara, was possessed by the Eye of Valmarmon and thanks to Valmarmon's powers, half of the Articuno villagers were cursed by a powerful sleeping spell. Now, she is heartbroken and scared after Flara was in shock of the Eye on her forehead.
Now, the only way to save the Articuno villagers is to remove the Eye of Valmarmon away from Eva. But, there will be a price for doing that as Eva's soul will shatter by the Evil God's power!
And they know that Velene, High Priestess of the Holy Cathedral Knights will kill Eva with her loyal Knightmon. The Digidestined know they have to get to Eva first before Velene does.
Somehow, Lowemon was able to sense Eva's pain and sorrow and led the group through different areas of Eva's soul. They started their journey off by walking through a room that looks like they were walking on clouds in the sky, with mist going around the floor.
Their second arrival were Lowemon announced that Eva is somewhere in here was filled with evil as the second area was filled with lava, fire and brimstone.
After what seems to be a long journey, the Digidestined finally saw what they were looking for... They approach the edge of a cliff and a giant eyeball appears in front of them. They slowly entered and found Eva, sitting alone in a dark area.
Eva lifted her head up and growled at the Legendary Warriors. "Why don't you just leave me alone? I didn't do anything wrong. Why does everyone hate me?"
"I know, believe me, kid, I know." Agunimon said, walking to Eva. "Come on, little one. We'll take you to your mother."
"You're lying, I know it. You're afraid of me, too! The man dressed as a lion just wants to hurt me! I know it!" Eva cried out before her voice became sad. "It must be a lie. Even my mother asked you to kill me, right?"
"NO!!!" Beetlemon called out. "You're wrong, kid, see....?"
"Bah! All of you, just go away!!!" Eva screamed out as the room lighted up to show the Digidestined that the young child was standing upon an eye. She sunk into the iris....
"Eva!!!" Agunimon yelled out. "NO!!!!!!"
The eyeball slowly transformed into a giant creature with tentacles and covered with eyeballs.
"Its too late..." ExVeemon said, sadly. "The Eye of Valmarmon has now taken upon its true form.."
"Ah!!! We got company!!!" Bokomon called out as 4 EyeBatmon joined with the giant creature.
"He has arrived..." The 4 EyeBatmon said together. "The Eye of Valmarmon has finally arrived! ValEyemon has been born!!!"
"The Eye of Valmarmon is ValEyemon!?" Lobomon gasped.
***DIGIMON INFORMATION***
NAME:ValEyemon.
LEVEL:Ultimate.
TYPE:Virus.
Mutant Digimon.
ATTACKS:Glaring Eye, Wacking Tentacle.
(Impmon) Badda boom, baby! This is the Eye of Valmarmon all right! ValEyemon is really dangerous with his Glaring Eye to freeze his enemy before using Wacking Tentacle to win! And I'm telling ya, when he wacks! He wacks you like a baseball!
*************************
"Eva!!!" Agunimon yelled out. "This... This is terrible..."
Lobomon ran over to Agunimon's side. "Agunimon! We have to defeat ValEyemon!!!"
"WHAT?!?" Agunimon gasped. "But, Eva is..."
"I'm sorry, Agunimon." Beetlemon said. "She is gone... And we have to right! Its either us, or ValEyemon. What do you think...?"
Agunimon clenched his fists and felt anger in his soul. "Eye of Valmarmon!!! You will pay!!!" He leapt up and spun in a pillar of flame. "Take this!!! Pyro Tornado!!!!"
"Agunimon!!!" Lowemon called out. "Wait!!!"
"HAHAHA!!!!" ValEyemon laughed out as Agunimon's attack didn't faze him. "Warrior of Flame?! You got to be kidding me..."
"Agunimon's power didn't faze ValEyemon!!!" ExVeemon gasped.
Agunimon landed and knew what he had to do... "AGUNIMON!!! SLIDE EVOLUTION!!! BURNINGGREYMON!!!"
"Oh lookie..." ValEyemon said, not scared of the apperance of the Beast Warrior of Flame. "Its a dragon where I can knock down..."
"Knock this down!!!" BurningGreymon roared as he started to cover ValEyemon with flames. "Wildfire Tsunami!!!"
When the flames calmed down, ValEyemon was still standing and not burnt. "Pathetic..."
BurningGreymon cursed under his breath. "Whats with this guy?!"
"Did you see that...?" Neemon gasped.
"I did! The power of the Beast Spirit of AncientGreymon didn't do much damage Agunimon's power!!!" Bokomon cried out. "What happens next?!"
"THIS!!!" ValEyemon yelled out as the eyes started to glow. "Glaring Eye!!!"
BurningGreymon gasped as he couldn't move after accidently stared into the eye. "I... I can't move my body..."
"Now, time to make a home run!!!" ValEyemon said as he threw a tentacle to BurningGreymon. "Here comes a strike! Wacking Tentacle!!!"
"Watch out!!!" Lowemon said as he, Lobomon, Beetlemon and ExVeemon ran to BurningGreymon's aid.
"ARGH!!!!!!" BurningGreymon yelled as the Wacking Tentacle hits. Not only freeing him from ValEyemon's Glaring Eye but, also knocking him to the ground. He slowly got up and groaned. "This is crazy!!! I gotta collect myself..."
He didn't had time to finish as the EyeBatmon made their move on the Beast Warrior of Flame by using their... "TRI-BURST RAM!!!!"
BurningGreymon screamed in pain as he changed back to Takuya. The young boy fell to his knees in pain as the EyeBatmon pulled back for another attack. "Man... this can't... end like this..."
"Lobo Kendo!!!" Yelled Lobomon as he used his Light Sabers to cut the 4 EyeBatmon in half and used his D-Tector to scan their Digi-code before turning back to Takuya. "Are you all right?"
"Yeah..." Takuya said, winching in pain. "Whats wrong with me...?"
Lobomon kneeled beside his friend and sighed. "You are afride, Takuya. Afride for Eva and her mother... Thats why..."
ValEyemon was about to attack Takuya and Lobomon but Beetlemon, Lowemon and ExVeemon stopped him before he could do anything.
Bokomon ran up to Takuya and Lobomon with Neemon at his side. "Takuya! The others need your help!! You have to fight ValEyemon!!!"
"I.. I can't... Eva..." Takuya studdered.
"Takuya..." Lobomon sighed. "You can't give up now... If you want to save Eva, you have to fight her! Like we saved Kouchi from being as Duskmon and also Veemon as he was ShadowExVeemon..."
Takuya gasped and nodded. "Your right..."
"AH!!!!" Neemon gasped. "We are in trouble..."
Takuya and Lobomon looked up and gasped as they saw ValEyemon grabbing Beetlemon and Lowemon with his tentacles. ExVeemon was struggling to get them free.
"Hold on, you guys!" ExVeemon said as he started to bite the tentacles. "Critical Crunch..." But, he winched in pain. "OW!!! This stuff is strong!!!"
ExVeemon gasped as ValEyemon wrapped his tentacles around his body. He struggled to get free but, they were too strong.
"Now, the fun begins..." ValEyemon laughed as he started to squeeze the life out of Beetlemon, Lowemon and ExVeemon.
"STOP!!!" Lobomon yelled as he jumped to ValEyemon, ready to cut his friends free. "Let them go, you... you monster!!!"
ValEyemon laughed as he threw another tentacle to grab Lobomon. "Too bad! Too late!"
"Lobomon!!!!!!" Takuya yelled out. "Lowemon!!!!! Beetlemon!!!!! ExVeemon!!!!!! I gotta help them!!! Right now!!!"
"But, how...?" Bokomon wondered. "Agunimon wasn't strong to win. Neither was BurningGreymon. How can we beat ValEyemon...?"
Takuya was silent till, he stood up and held the D-Tector out. "There IS a way..."
"You mean...?" Neemon gasped.
Bokomon slammed his fist into his hand. "Of course! Go for it!!!"
"EXECUTE NOW!!!!!!!! FUSION EVOLUTION!!!!!!" Takuya yelled out as the Human Spirit and Beast Spirit of Flame combined upon him to become... "ALDAMON!!!!!"
"What the...?" ValEyemon gasped as the new Warrior of Flame that is combined with Agunimon's and BurningGreymon's appreance, crashed into him, letting his captives go.
ExVeemon landed on the ground and gasped at the apperance of Aldamon. "What... happened...?"
"Takuya used a special evolution known as Fusion Evolution." Bokomon explained. "It happens when the Human and Beast Spirit of the same element is combined together to form an Advance Warrior. Combineding the Spirits of Flame produces Aldamon!!!"
"Aldamon, huh?" ValEyemon laughed. "I will beat you with my eyes closed. All of them!!!"
Aldamon turned to his friends. "Lobomon, Beetlemon! I have an idea! Slide evolve!"
"Got it!" Lobomon said as he... "LOBOMON SLIDE EVOLUTION!!! KENDOGARURUMON!!!"
"Right, sir!" Beetlemon said as he... "BEETLEMON SLIDE EVOLUTION!!! METALKABUTERIMON!!!"
"What is this?!" ValEyemon cried out.
"Time for me to start things off." Aldamon said as he raised his blasters and pointed them to the Eye of Valmarmon. "Don't blink or you will miss. Solar Wind Destroyer!!!!"
"ARGH!!!" Screamed ValEyemon as countless balls of fire struck him. "He.. he is stronger..."
"All right! Attack together!!!" Aldamon yelled out.
"Lupine Laser!!!" Yelled KendoGarurumon.
"Electron Cannon!!!!" Yelled MetalKabuterimon.
"Endlich Meteor!!!" Yelled Lowemon.
"Vee Laser!!!" Yelled ExVeemon.
ValEyemon coughed as 4 attacks struck him, causing a small explosion making him cough from the smoke. When it was cleared, he saw Aldamon holding a giant ball of flame!!!
"This is for Eva!!!!" Yelled Aldamon. "Atomic Inferno!!!!"
"No..." ValEyemon cried out. "No... NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
When the Atomic Inferno crashed into ValEyemon, a giant explosion appeared.....
---------------------------------
Aldamon, Lowemon, KendoGarurumon, MetalKabuterimon, ExVeemon, Bokomon and Neemon found themselves back in the Garden of Dreams and they were standing over the unconscious body of Eva.
"Aldamon..." Lowemon sighed. "It is time..."
Aldamon bowed his head. "I know... I'm sorry, Eva..."
"Wait a second!!!" ExVeemon yelled out. "Where else do we look? There's a way to save the girl! We just have to find it!"
"You said it yourself, ExVeemon!!!" Bokomon called out. "Taking the piece of Valmarmon out of the victim's body is no easy task! Besides, it either us or her!"
"Didn't we already go through this, everyone?" KendoGarurumon said, sadly. "She's only going to suffer. There... there is nothing else we can do...."
"Damnit..." MetalKabuterimon said, sighing sadly.
The group was silent until they heard some flower rustles... They turned around to see Flara walking into the garden with Zoe and Tommy at her side and Patamon on her head.
"So this is the Garden of Dreams..." Flara said, as she looked around the garden. She spotted the Digidestined and gasped. Not because of MetalKabuterimon's apperance, nor KendoGarurumon, nor ExVeemon and/or nor Lowemon... It was Eva she gasped at.
"Whoa!" Patamon said, as Flara ran off to Eva's body.
Flara kneeled beside Eva's body and started to cry. "Aah! I'm sorry Eva!!! I love you more than anyone! And that is the truth!!!"
Eva started to moan, move her body and slowly opened her eyes to see Flara. "Mother?"
"I never thought you were a monster, even for a moment." Flara said, stroking Eva's head.
Even though Eva was weak and tired, she still gave her mother a smile. "Oh. I'm so glad! So you don't hate me, right? Look. This is the Garden of Dreams you told me about, mother. Isn't it pretty?" Eva asked as her mother nodded.
"Yes..." Flara said, nodding as tears fell out of her eyes. "Its beautiful..."
Eva turned her head to Aldamon and Lowemon. "Lowemon, I am sorry for thinking you were trying to hurt me. Instead, you want to help me. Like all of you... Please, take out this eye. Mother smiled. So I don't need this eye anymore. I understand everything now."
"I can't take the eye out..." Lowemon sighed.
"I can." Aldamon said, stepping up.
"Aldamon?!" Zoe gasped.
"Aldamon. Do you know what to do?" MetalKabuterimon asked.
Tommy sighed. "Aldamon..."
"Please! Leave her alone, please!" Flara begged.
Eva turned back to her mother and gave Flara a smile. "Mother, don't worry. I have to get rid of this or I might make for trouble for everyone... Mother. I love you so..."
Aldamon caused a small shockwave and Digi-code started to revolve around Eva. Inside the Digi-code was the Eye of Valmarmon. Aldamon held his D-Tector into the air. "Eva... You have been a brave girl.... And ValEyemon, we will never forgive you for taking this child's life! This Digivice will purify your soul!!! Digi-code SCAN!!!"
"Bye mother..." Eva sighed as the Digi-code was collected. Flara hugged Eva before a bright light appeared around the group.
When their vision came back, all the flowers in the garden are gone. Leaving behind a barren area. In Flara's arms was a limp figure of Eva...
"Look!!!" Tommy gasped, as he pointed to the small fireflies. "The fairies are going back into the bodies of the villagers."
"If I were as able to save her as I was able to shoot my mouth off..." Aldamon said, bowing his head. "I'm sorry.... I'm so, so sorry...."
"I wish to thank you. It was because of your words that I had the courage to come here." Flara said, smiling as tears came down her face. "In the end, you saved her. You saw her smiling, right? Look at her. She is still smiling..."
Aldamon turned around, sadden by the affiar...
"But, tell me..." Flara said. "What shall I do now...?"
"I... I don't know..." Zoe said, sighing. "I'm sorry... I don't know..."
"Look!" Patamon cried out as he flew over to a tulip that was blooming in the garden. "It's Eva!"
"Eva?!" MetalKabuterimon gasped. "That can't be her! Its a flower!"
"ThIS single flower is Eva's heart. It is growing here because it couldn't return to her body." Patamon said, with hope in his voice. "Eva might come back if enough of those flowers bloom to fill this place."
"With a snowy mountain like this, there is no way that will happen." Bokomon noted.
" Yes it will! I'll make it happen! I'll turn this whole place into a garden!" Flara called out.
Tommy ran over to Patamon. "Patamon! So little Eva will come back!?"
"Maybe..." Patamon sighed. "As long as she doesn't lose hope!"
"I don't think we all will..." Aldamon said, as a smile came to his face.
ExVeemon smiled. "Agreed."
It was much later and the Digidestined were back at Flara's house in the Articuno Village. Aldamon, KendoGarurumon, MetalKabuterimon, Lowemon and ExVeemon were back at Takuya, Koji, JP, Kouchi and Veemon. Flara was holding Eva's body.
Takuya bowed his head. "I'm so sorry, little Eva. I could do nothing for you."
"She'll be okay." Veemon piped up. "I know it. A kind girl like little Eva cannot end up like this. So, have hope for her!"
"Right!" Takuya said, rising his head up.
Flara looked at Takuya and his friends and smiled. "A wise Digimon once said to me, as the raven is born of its own, so does kindness beget kindness. There will be good even in this."
"You think so...?" JP asked.
Koji turned to his friends. "She knows so..."
Takuya took a deep breath and smiled at Flara. "Well, we should be going. Don't lose hope in Eva.
We won't. Take care, and thank you for everything."
"Miss Flara!!!" Called out a voice and a young Growlithe male hybrid came in. It was Canine's son, Growly. "Hello, Miss Flara!!!"
Flara placed Eva into bed and walked over to Growly. "Well, Growly! You're awake!"
"Yess, but I'm really hungry." Growly said, smiling. "Where is Eva?"
"Eva's still sleeping. Sorry." Flara said, glancing at her daughter.
Zoe walked over to Growly. "Growly..."
"Yes?" Growly said, looking up at Zoe.
"Be nice to little Eva, will you?" Zoe asked.
"Huh? Of course. We're friends, after all!" Growly said, before walking out of the house.
Koji placed his hand on Takuya's shoulder and smiled. "Come on, let's go..."
"Thank you for all your help. Please take care." Flara said, waving as the Digidestined left the house before she went back to her caring on Eva...
The Digidestined were sad but, they still have high hopes on Eva's recovery... Plus, they will make their way to Holy Cathedral but, they will need to get some rest before going on their journey... However.... the High Priestess Velene and her Knightmon are still here...
Takuya and his friends stopped when they saw Velene standing with her Knightmon in front of the Jolteon chief, the Espeon, Charmeleon, Nidorina and Houndour.
"Well, well. Look what the slavish devotion to sanctimonious bloodshed dragged in." Takuya giggled. "What brings you here, or did I answer myself?"
Velene glared at Takuya before she said. "I shall put that mother and daughter that surports Valmarmon before the inquisition!!"
"Why?! Haven't the people who fell ill recovered?" Kouchi yelled out. "Shouldn't you be driving back into your crypt and gnawing at bones by now?"
"He is right, Velene." Zoe said, stepping up. "The girl cannot see, nor can she hear. She is harmless. So, please, just leave her alone."
"Hold your tongue, Warrior of Wind!" Velene said, sharply as she remembered the 6 children turning into the Legendary Warriors. "Those tainted by Valmarmon must be dealt with accordingly. In the name of Granasmon, all that is evil and corruptible must be purified!"
"Please stop with that word!!" Koji yelled out. "Tell me, is it wrong for a mother to wish to heal her sick daughter!!? Is it 'righteous' to string up a grieving mother!!?"
"Koji...?" Veemon gasped.
Velene was silent until she said. "Koji... right...? You do seem to want to protect them. Some
would find your words to be heretical. You have no issue with this."
"High Priestess Velene. Surely you would not!!?" Patamon gasped.
"Fine, fine. I'm a heretic! I hate god. I hate your ridiculous outfits. I hate YOU. Call me whatever, but leave those two alone!" Takuya screamed out.
The Jolteon chief decided to say something. "Ah, Velene. Do not worry about us. Everything has been resolved. Let's not argue any more. Please. Please let us get back to our lives. We were suffering but that was o reason for our cruel treatment of Flara and Eva. Please, forgive us."
The Charmeleon, Espeon, Nidorina and the Houndour agreed with the Jolteon chief.
Velene remained silent but, sighed. "I remain reluctant, yet let it not be said that Granasmon is without mercy. So be it. However, children. You seem to be lacking in piety for being as the Legendary Warriors. This I shall report to Zera."
And with that the Holy Priestess and her Knightmon left the Articuno village.
"Well, thats that..." JP sighed. "Articuno village is saved and the people are now awaken from their sleeping spell..."
"Though... in order to do that... we had to sacrafice Eva..." Tommy sighed.
Takuya looked at the sky, sadly. "Wish there was some other way..."
"But, there wasn't..." Bokomon said. "There was no choice, Takuya. We bit the right thing, even though it wasn't an easy choice."
"What shall we do next..?" Neemon asked.
Bokomon sighed. "Listen to me *very* carefully, we are going to rest in the inn and then, tomorrow morning, we leave!"
"Thats right..." Koji said, nodding.
"And in two days time, we will finally arrive at the Holy Cathedral..." Veemon said, happily.
"Okay... Come on, you guys..." Takuya said, as they moved towards the inn. "Its time for some good rest after a hard day's battle..."
And with that, they walked to the Articuno inn where they were greeted by a sadden Canine, whom felt she should apologise to Flara and hope that Eva will be all right in the end. After a good night's rest and saying goodbye to the Jolteon chief, Canine, Flara and the villagers, the Digidestined finally continued their journey to Holy Cathedral...
"And nothing will stop us..." Takuya said, smiling. "Nothing..."
TO BE CONTINUED...
(Rika) That was the end of an emotional story. And I wonder, will Takuya and the others finally arrive at Holy Cathedral? Stay tune to the next chapter of Digimon Frontier!
All right! Now thats done, chapter 11 will have more emotional as you will soon see. So long...

"Ah!!! We got company!!!" Bokomon called out as 4 EyeBatmon joined with the giant creature.

ValEyemon coughed as 4 attacks struck him, causing a small explosion making him cough from the smoke. When it was cleared, he saw Aldamon holding a giant ball of flame!!!
"This is for Eva!!!!" Yelled Aldamon. "Atomic Inferno!!!!"
"No..." ValEyemon cried out. "No... NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
When the Atomic Inferno crashed into ValEyemon, a giant explosion appeared.....
---------------------------------
Aldamon, Lowemon, KendoGarurumon, MetalKabuterimon, ExVeemon, Bokomon and Neemon found themselves back in the Garden of Dreams and they were standing over the unconscious body of Eva.
"Aldamon..." Lowemon sighed. "It is time..."
Aldamon bowed his head. "I know... I'm sorry, Eva..."
"Wait a second!!!" ExVeemon yelled out. "Where else do we look? There's a way to save the girl! We just have to find it!"
"You said it yourself, ExVeemon!!!" Bokomon called out. "Taking the piece of Valmarmon out of the victim's body is no easy task! Besides, it either us or her!"
"Didn't we already go through this, everyone?" KendoGarurumon said, sadly. "She's only going to suffer. There... there is nothing else we can do...."
"Damnit..." MetalKabuterimon said, sighing sadly.
The group was silent until they heard some flower rustles... They turned around to see Flara walking into the garden with Zoe and Tommy at her side and Patamon on her head.
"So this is the Garden of Dreams..." Flara said, as she looked around the garden. She spotted the Digidestined and gasped. Not because of MetalKabuterimon's apperance, nor KendoGarurumon, nor ExVeemon and/or nor Lowemon... It was Eva she gasped at.
"Whoa!" Patamon said, as Flara ran off to Eva's body.
Flara kneeled beside Eva's body and started to cry. "Aah! I'm sorry Eva!!! I love you more than anyone! And that is the truth!!!"
Eva started to moan, move her body and slowly opened her eyes to see Flara. "Mother?"
"I never thought you were a monster, even for a moment." Flara said, stroking Eva's head.
Even though Eva was weak and tired, she still gave her mother a smile. "Oh. I'm so glad! So you don't hate me, right? Look. This is the Garden of Dreams you told me about, mother. Isn't it pretty?" Eva asked as her mother nodded.
"Yes..." Flara said, nodding as tears fell out of her eyes. "Its beautiful..."
Eva turned her head to Aldamon and Lowemon. "Lowemon, I am sorry for thinking you were trying to hurt me. Instead, you want to help me. Like all of you... Please, take out this eye. Mother smiled. So I don't need this eye anymore. I understand everything now."
"I can't take the eye out..." Lowemon sighed.
"I can." Aldamon said, stepping up.
"Aldamon?!" Zoe gasped.
"Aldamon. Do you know what to do?" MetalKabuterimon asked.
Tommy sighed. "Aldamon..."
"Please! Leave her alone, please!" Flara begged.
Eva turned back to her mother and gave Flara a smile. "Mother, don't worry. I have to get rid of this or I might make for trouble for everyone... Mother. I love you so..."
Aldamon caused a small shockwave and Digi-code started to revolve around Eva. Inside the Digi-code was the Eye of Valmarmon. Aldamon held his D-Tector into the air. "Eva... You have been a brave girl.... And ValEyemon, we will never forgive you for taking this child's life! This Digivice will purify your soul!!! Digi-code SCAN!!!"
"Bye mother..." Eva sighed as the Digi-code was collected. Flara hugged Eva before a bright light appeared around the group.
When their vision came back, all the flowers in the garden are gone. Leaving behind a barren area. In Flara's arms was a limp figure of Eva...
"Look!!!" Tommy gasped, as he pointed to the small fireflies. "The fairies are going back into the bodies of the villagers."
"If I were as able to save her as I was able to shoot my mouth off..." Aldamon said, bowing his head. "I'm sorry.... I'm so, so sorry...."
"I wish to thank you. It was because of your words that I had the courage to come here." Flara said, smiling as tears came down her face. "In the end, you saved her. You saw her smiling, right? Look at her. She is still smiling..."
Aldamon turned around, sadden by the affiar...
"But, tell me..." Flara said. "What shall I do now...?"
"I... I don't know..." Zoe said, sighing. "I'm sorry... I don't know..."
"Look!" Patamon cried out as he flew over to a tulip that was blooming in the garden. "It's Eva!"
"Eva?!" MetalKabuterimon gasped. "That can't be her! Its a flower!"
"ThIS single flower is Eva's heart. It is growing here because it couldn't return to her body." Patamon said, with hope in his voice. "Eva might come back if enough of those flowers bloom to fill this place."
"With a snowy mountain like this, there is no way that will happen." Bokomon noted.
" Yes it will! I'll make it happen! I'll turn this whole place into a garden!" Flara called out.
Tommy ran over to Patamon. "Patamon! So little Eva will come back!?"
"Maybe..." Patamon sighed. "As long as she doesn't lose hope!"
"I don't think we all will..." Aldamon said, as a smile came to his face.
ExVeemon smiled. "Agreed."
It was much later and the Digidestined were back at Flara's house in the Articuno Village. Aldamon, KendoGarurumon, MetalKabuterimon, Lowemon and ExVeemon were back at Takuya, Koji, JP, Kouchi and Veemon. Flara was holding Eva's body.
Takuya bowed his head. "I'm so sorry, little Eva. I could do nothing for you."
"She'll be okay." Veemon piped up. "I know it. A kind girl like little Eva cannot end up like this. So, have hope for her!"
"Right!" Takuya said, rising his head up.
Flara looked at Takuya and his friends and smiled. "A wise Digimon once said to me, as the raven is born of its own, so does kindness beget kindness. There will be good even in this."
"You think so...?" JP asked.
Koji turned to his friends. "She knows so..."
Takuya took a deep breath and smiled at Flara. "Well, we should be going. Don't lose hope in Eva.
We won't. Take care, and thank you for everything."
"Miss Flara!!!" Called out a voice and a young Growlithe male hybrid came in. It was Canine's son, Growly. "Hello, Miss Flara!!!"
Flara placed Eva into bed and walked over to Growly. "Well, Growly! You're awake!"
"Yess, but I'm really hungry." Growly said, smiling. "Where is Eva?"
"Eva's still sleeping. Sorry." Flara said, glancing at her daughter.
Zoe walked over to Growly. "Growly..."
"Yes?" Growly said, looking up at Zoe.
"Be nice to little Eva, will you?" Zoe asked.
"Huh? Of course. We're friends, after all!" Growly said, before walking out of the house.
Koji placed his hand on Takuya's shoulder and smiled. "Come on, let's go..."
"Thank you for all your help. Please take care." Flara said, waving as the Digidestined left the house before she went back to her caring on Eva...
The Digidestined were sad but, they still have high hopes on Eva's recovery... Plus, they will make their way to Holy Cathedral but, they will need to get some rest before going on their journey... However.... the High Priestess Velene and her Knightmon are still here...
Takuya and his friends stopped when they saw Velene standing with her Knightmon in front of the Jolteon chief, the Espeon, Charmeleon, Nidorina and Houndour.
"Well, well. Look what the slavish devotion to sanctimonious bloodshed dragged in." Takuya giggled. "What brings you here, or did I answer myself?"
Velene glared at Takuya before she said. "I shall put that mother and daughter that surports Valmarmon before the inquisition!!"
"Why?! Haven't the people who fell ill recovered?" Kouchi yelled out. "Shouldn't you be driving back into your crypt and gnawing at bones by now?"
"He is right, Velene." Zoe said, stepping up. "The girl cannot see, nor can she hear. She is harmless. So, please, just leave her alone."
"Hold your tongue, Warrior of Wind!" Velene said, sharply as she remembered the 6 children turning into the Legendary Warriors. "Those tainted by Valmarmon must be dealt with accordingly. In the name of Granasmon, all that is evil and corruptible must be purified!"
"Please stop with that word!!" Koji yelled out. "Tell me, is it wrong for a mother to wish to heal her sick daughter!!? Is it 'righteous' to string up a grieving mother!!?"
"Koji...?" Veemon gasped.
Velene was silent until she said. "Koji... right...? You do seem to want to protect them. Some
would find your words to be heretical. You have no issue with this."
"High Priestess Velene. Surely you would not!!?" Patamon gasped.
"Fine, fine. I'm a heretic! I hate god. I hate your ridiculous outfits. I hate YOU. Call me whatever, but leave those two alone!" Takuya screamed out.
The Jolteon chief decided to say something. "Ah, Velene. Do not worry about us. Everything has been resolved. Let's not argue any more. Please. Please let us get back to our lives. We were suffering but that was o reason for our cruel treatment of Flara and Eva. Please, forgive us."
The Charmeleon, Espeon, Nidorina and the Houndour agreed with the Jolteon chief.
Velene remained silent but, sighed. "I remain reluctant, yet let it not be said that Granasmon is without mercy. So be it. However, children. You seem to be lacking in piety for being as the Legendary Warriors. This I shall report to Zera."
And with that the Holy Priestess and her Knightmon left the Articuno village.
"Well, thats that..." JP sighed. "Articuno village is saved and the people are now awaken from their sleeping spell..."
"Though... in order to do that... we had to sacrafice Eva..." Tommy sighed.
Takuya looked at the sky, sadly. "Wish there was some other way..."
"But, there wasn't..." Bokomon said. "There was no choice, Takuya. We bit the right thing, even though it wasn't an easy choice."
"What shall we do next..?" Neemon asked.
Bokomon sighed. "Listen to me *very* carefully, we are going to rest in the inn and then, tomorrow morning, we leave!"
"Thats right..." Koji said, nodding.
"And in two days time, we will finally arrive at the Holy Cathedral..." Veemon said, happily.
"Okay... Come on, you guys..." Takuya said, as they moved towards the inn. "Its time for some good rest after a hard day's battle..."
And with that, they walked to the Articuno inn where they were greeted by a sadden Canine, whom felt she should apologise to Flara and hope that Eva will be all right in the end. After a good night's rest and saying goodbye to the Jolteon chief, Canine, Flara and the villagers, the Digidestined finally continued their journey to Holy Cathedral...
"And nothing will stop us..." Takuya said, smiling. "Nothing..."
TO BE CONTINUED...
(Rika) That was the end of an emotional story. And I wonder, will Takuya and the others finally arrive at Holy Cathedral? Stay tune to the next chapter of Digimon Frontier!
All right! Now thats done, chapter 11 will have more emotional as you will soon see. So long...
