Digimon: Death of Akume

Chapter 7: The Rescue

"What does the prophecy say, Izzy?" Sokkia asked the shorter boy.

"Well, it is rather odd, but go ahead and read it." Izzy said, then Sokkia read the message.

Kari of the Kahn shall be the downfall of her brother.

When the younger has fallen, the wall of fire shall open to reveal the greatest enemy.

When the venom has been spat, the world shall send a new foe.

This foe shall reveal the crests of the youngest group, and one shall die.

The death will seal fait's door with ice, and the group will break.

When they come together, life will live again and take the throne.

So says the Mystic Kahn Queen Prophecy.




Sokkia gasped.

"Kari of the Kahn." Sokkia said thoughtfully. "Gatomon, do you think Kari of the Kahn could mean me?" Sokkia asked as Kari read the message. Kari gasped when she read the prophecy.

"Yes, that sounds right. But what about that last line, 'So says the Mystic Kahn Queen Prophecy.' What could that mean?" Gatomon asked. Gatomon had read the prophecy before Sokkia had.

"Beats me." Sokkia said. "Hey, Izzy, what does the rest of that e-mail say?" Sokkia asked him.

"It just has a description of Yapmon. That little guy is it." Izzy replied. "He's still an In-Training Digimon."

"You bet I am!" Yapmon said. Sokkia picked the small creature up and sat it on her shoulder. It grabbed on with a pair of talons.

"You have talons?" Sokkia asked, surprised.

"Yes, are they hurting you" Yapmon asked her.

"No, I was just surprised, that's all." Sokkia replied with a smile. Sokkia spoke to the group. "You guys, we need to rescue the rest of the Digimon, and if we're going to do that, we need to get the other Digidestined. Greymon, Kabuterimon, and Neferitymon may be strong, but they're not invincible." Sokkia said matter-of-factly. "I suggest someone goes back to get the others while the rest of us go get the Digimon. I suggest Davis, Cody, T.K., or Yolei go back. With Greymon, Kabuterimon, and Neferitymon here, getting the other Digimon will go a lot quicker." Sokkia suggested.

"I agree," Tai said. "I think all four should go. If they are all making calls, the others will get there faster." Everyone nodded at Tai's suggestion. "Alright, everyone meet back at the TV in this area." Tai said, then Cody, Yolei, T.K., and Davis went through the Digi-port and back to the real world. Agumon, Tentomon, and Gatomon then Digivolved to Greymon, Kabuterimon, and Neferitymon. Izzy went on Kabuterimon to get Gomamon. Kari went on Neferitymon to get Togemon. Tai and Sokkia went on Greymon to get Garurumon and Biyomon.

An hour after they left, all the Digidestined were back at the TV. None of them had any problems. Mimi had even been able to come. As soon as the rest of the Digidestined had read the prophecy, they set out for the Emperor's prison. When they were nearing the prison, Sokkia spoke up.

"Alright, we're getting real close to the prison now, and since I know the way around there best, I'll tell you where you need to be to pull this thing off. Davis, you're with Tai and Matt, you will be coming in at southern corner. T.K., you will be with Kari and Sora coming in at the northern corner. Cody, You're with Joe and Izzy coming in at the eastern corner. Yolei, you and Mimi are coming in at the western corner. I'm going in at the southwest wall. I need to get my Digivice back." Sokkia said, and everyone did as they were told. When Sokkia gave the signal over the Digivice, everyone attacked their respective corner. Sokkia climbed over the rubble of the fallen southwest wall. She had known it was a weak spot. Sokkia went to the center of the arena and spotted her brother. She went up and tried to tackle him from behind, but some sort of force field protected him from her. He turned and grabbed her, throwing her against a wall. Sokkia slowly got up. Just then a huge dust cloud enveloped the Emperor. When the dust cleared, he was surrounded by ArmorDigimon. The plan had been successful. Sokkia walked up to her brother with a stone face. She reached into his cape pocket and pulled her Digivice and computer out. Sokkia was very surprised that a force field didn't stop her. She walked out of the circle of Digimon.

"You can do with him as you wish. I have no need to ever see him again. He is evil, and I do not wish to be tempted." Sokkia said as she left the arena with Yapmon. She heard the Emperor give a laugh, then heard a small explosion and she knew he had escaped. The other Digimon De-Digivolved back to rookie except for Greymon, Garurumon, and Togemon. Then the rest of the Digidestined caught up with her.

"What happened back there, Sokkia?" Tai asked

"Yeah, you seem pretty shaken up." Matt added.

"The curse has been activated. I can not intentionally cause any physical harm to him. I tried to tackle him, but a force field stopped me." Sokkia replied. "I need to look into the curse better, and find out how this ring comes into play." Sokkia had then reached the Digi-port. "Let's go home. I have a lot of explaining to do." With that Sokkia held her Digivice up to the TV and was transported back to the computer lab.
