Chapter 18
~Koji's POV~
I wanted so much to faint right there. Every single part of my body burned as if it was being cremated.
But I can't give up. Everyone's depending on me. If I give up, Zoe will never have a chance of being free. I have to go on, for her sake, and everyone else's.
I hate this.
"How pathetic," An evil voice laughed.
That is got to be Cherubimon
"Cherubimon," Ophanimon confirmed my guess. "So you are here."
"Nice to see you again Ophanimon," The villain shown himself.
"I cannot say the same."
"Have I done anything to displease you?" He chuckled mockingly.
"You know very well of the evil you did."
"I don't call it evil. I call it noble."
"Noble you call it?" Koichi stood up. "I, call it crap."
"Well, if it isn't the little traitor Koichi," Cherubimon narrowed his eyes.
"My brother is not a traitor!" I rejected.
"Are you sure? The next thing you know he might be stabbing your back, like Zoe." He answered amusingly.
"Shut, up." I said, cold fury rose within me, and I clenched my fist tightly around my sword.
JetSilphymon rushed up to me and began to attack.
"Jet Turbulence." Over and over again she struck me with her jets, changed from her wings. I was too busy to defend to notice my pains.
"Zoe, please I don't want to fight you," I called, when I finally found a break.
"I do." She replied merely.
"But we're your friend!"
"Yeah, what Koji said." JP yelled from behind.
"I do not have or need friends," after her final reply, she elevated her staff and a shadowy light came up. "Kaze no Kazu."
Right away, before I could even think what to do, a gust of indescribable darkness swiped in. But instead of attacking me, it was heading towards the others.
"No!" If that hits them, Cherubimon will be able to suck up their data. I can't let him.
I ran across to in front of them just in time to block the attack. The weight of it crashed down on me. I couldn't hold on any longer.
I felt myself weakening and slipping away as I became human again, and my data was outside, clear and shining.
The daylight was too bright for me. Amongst all the blurriness I could still clearly see JetSilphymon walking towards me.
This cannot be the end for us. There must be something we can do.
"What can we do?" A voice said in my head. "There's no hope, might as well give up."
While I was busy arguing with my head, JetSilphymon was already over me. I saw her claw coming my way.
I closed my eyes and breathed my last breath. Maybe I was meant to die in this world.
