"You have failed me." The vampire-like figure spoke, cloaked by darkness in the forest. All three of the Patamon shivered.
"We're sorry!" The last two of the Patamon shouted at once, bowing down to this mysterious digimon who could force evolution. The first Patamon just bowed, a glazed look in his eyes. The mysterious figure sighed.
"It doesn't matter. I obviously made a mistake in thinking that once perfect digimon would be enough to fight against something like that." The figure said as it lifted up his arm, black light consuming the three Patamon once again. Suddenly a bunch of digicode wrapped around each digimon, creating three separate cocoons.
"Patamon Evolve!" all three of them yelled as the cocoons of data expanded in size. All three cocoons of data suddenly vanished, each revealing a separate digimon. In the place of the first Patamon was a large black dragon with tattered wings. Its body seemed to be covered in leather and it had black eyes. "Devidramon!" Devidramon was an evil dragon digimon. His attacks include Crimson Nail and Red Eye.
The second Patamon had evolved into a large humanoid figure wearing samurai armor. He held a large katana in one hand. "Musyamon!" This digimon happened to be Virus type demon man digimon. His attacks are Violent Dismissal and White Bird Sword.
And finally the third Patamon had become a large a large green skinned humanoid digimon with overgrowing fangs. He held a club in his right hand. "Ogremon!" This digimon's attacks were Supreme King Fist and Bone Club.
"There." The figure said. "Now you know what to do. Recapture the Soul Core from that human!" And with that order, all three digimon were off…waiting for their chance to strike.
Chapter 2: The Temple of Spirit! Birth of HolyRenamon
-----------------------------------
Harry sighed as he looked up at the ceiling. The previous day's battle had really taken its toll on him, and LordHolyAngemon had offered to let him and the others rest at his castle for the night. Everyone took the offer eagerly; as it was obvious that Harry needed to regain his strength.
After the battle had ended, Lynxmon had devolved into her child form of Plotmon, completely identical to her late sister. 'No need to think of that right now.' Harry thought glumly as he brought himself out of the bed.
"So you're finally up." A voice said from the doorway. Harry turned to see Tsukaimon hovering in the doorway. "That was a pretty impressive battle that you fought yesterday."
"Thanks…" Harry said as he and Tsukaimon went out of the room. Harry didn't even have enough energy to undress himself yesterday. They walked through the halls of LordHolyAngemon's castle in silence for a few minutes. Finally Tsukaimon broke it.
"Tailmon and I are going with you." The small purple digimon said simply.
"What?" Harry asked, confused. Tsukaimon sighed.
"LordHolyAngemon wants me and Tailmon to go with you guys to help you find the Soul Cores." Tsukaimon said. "Besides… you're going to need a guide to get around this world."
"So I take it that Tailmon's back into her adult form?" Harry asked, the two of them continuing down the hall.
"Yep. And Patamon evolved back into LordHolyAngemon overnight." Tsukaimon answered. Harry suddenly brought out his digivice. "Why are you taking that out for?" the small purple digimon asked.
"No reason really." Harry said. "I'm just trying to figure out how I evolved yesterday…that part was really a huge blur." Tsukaimon looked over at the human.
"I'm sure that you'll figure it out eventually." Tsukaimon said. "And unfortunately, protecting the group has now fallen into your hands mostly." Tsukaimon paused. "Although don't think that you can keep me and Tailmon out of the action!" Harry laughed at this remark.
"How could anyone think you were evil?" Harry asked the small digimon. Tsukaimon just shrugged. Suddenly the human and digimon entered a room with a large table housing many different types of foods, including pancakes, waffles, fruits, cereal, and other foods that Harry didn't recognize. Dudley, Hermione, Ginny, Cedric, and the other two digimon were already seated at the table. Harry noticed that there were two vacant seats…one next to Hermione and the other next to Tailmon. Both creatures in question sat down in the chairs. Harry sat down in the seat next to Hermione, while Tsukaimon sat down next to Tailmon.
"Did you have a good night?" the brunette asked as Harry sat down.
"As good as I could have had anyway." Harry answered. "I mean, with what happen…"
"Alright. I get it. Stupid question." Hermione cut him off. Harry took a few pancakes off of the serving plate and placed them on his own plate. Harry looked over at Dudley and saw him uncharacteristically eating a small portion of food… small for Dudley at any rate.
"Are you alright?" Harry asked from across the table. Dudley looked over at him.
"Yeah…I'm just not that hungry." Dudley said. Harry shrugged; maybe Dudley's appetite had finally started to level off.
After the group finished eating their breakfast, they all turned their attention to LordHolyAngemon. "Alright… I bet you're all wondering where you are going to go from here." Several different versions of acknowledgment proved this statement. "I've figured out that you'll all leave the city from the main entrance and enter the Forest of Spirit."
"Why are we going to go there for?" Cedric asked. Tailmon looked over at him.
"We would go there because that's really the only place we can go from this city without the ability to fly." Tailmon said.
"Tailmon is correct. But once you get there, you'll be looking for the Shrine of Spirit." LordHolyAngemon added.
"The Shrine of Spirit?" Hermione asked, confused.
"Yes. The Shrine of Spirit. After I examined the energy being sent out by the Soul Core of Heaven, I found another energy signature similar to it at that Shrine." LordHolyAngemon answered. "I believe that it might be another Soul Core."
"Well, then it's obvious that we're going to have to go after it." Ginny said, already getting out of her seat.
"Alright… you're all free to leave as soon as you're ready." LordHolyAngemon said.
---------------------------------------------
A blonde haired human boy looked up at what he saw with interest. This figure seemed to be a tall demon of some kind wearing black leather-like garment. He had tattered wings coming out of his back. This was Devimon. The boy was wearing a simple blue pair of jeans, and a black cloak-like item that covered his shirt.
"Hold on…you mean that I got sent here along with five other humans like me to help save this world that I know nothing about?" the boy asked.
"That's the general bits of it." Devimon said.
"And you're actually trying to help the world?" the boy asked. Devimon sighed.
"Yes, just because I'm a fallen angel digimon doesn't mean that I'm evil." Devimon said. "Besides, if this world is destroyed then how can I live?"
"All right, so where do I have to go to find these other humans?" the boy asked again.
"I don't know." Devimon admitted. "I believe that you'll find that out in time Draco." Devimon said again. "Although you must be exhausted. Feel free to rest while you're here." Draco looked up at the demon.
"No thanks." Draco said. "But really, I'm not about to let my guard down while I'm alone." Devimon frowned, thinking that Draco didn't trust him. "Besides, if the world is really in as big of trouble as you say, I should probably fix it as soon as possible."
----------------------------------------
The group has currently left the City of Light and was now walking in the middle of a forest. Except for Tsukaimon, who was currently perched on Ginny's shoulder. Hermione looked over a Cedric.
"So," she began. "What do you think is going to happen now?" Cedric sighed.
"I don't have any clue." The oldest boy answered. Ginny looked at him.
"That's true." The redhead said. "After all, I think SkullSatamon has proved that magic isn't going to be that useful here."
"So that's what you were doing back in that battle." Dudley said, sounding like something that had been bugging him had finally been answered. Harry was holding his Digivice out.
'Alright, now I know that I can evolve into Paladinmon…but how am I going to protect the others if we get separated.' Harry thought, as a holographic 3-D compass appeared to be floating out of the digivice. A red dot was northwest from the group.
"What's wrong with your digivice?" Tsukaimon asked. Harry looked down at it.
"…I think it's a compass." Harry said.
"So what direction are we supposed to head in?" Dudley asked.
"We should try to get to the center of the forest." The cat digimon said. "That's were the shrine should be."
Suddenly a large blue dinosaur with red stripes along his body charged towards the group. This digimon was Allomon. His attacks include Dino Burst and Dynamite Head.
"What is that thing!?" Ginny yelled. Tsukaimon flew up off of the red head's shoulder.
"That's Allomon." Tsukaimon said. The small digimon turned to Harry. "Don't worry Harry. Let me and Tailmon handle this."
"What are you doing here!?" Tailmon exclaimed. Allomon looked at Harry hungrily.
"Give me the Soul Core!" the dinosaur yelled.
"Why should I!?" Harry yelled, grabbing his digivice.
"Harry stop. Like Tsukaimon said let the two of us handle this." Tailmon said as her eyes started glowing red. "Cat's Eye!" she yelled as the beams shot off into the dinosaur's eyes. Suddenly Tailmon jumped up and appeared above Allomon's head. "Cat Kick!" she yelled as her paw collided with Allomon's head, sending the digimon back a few feet before she landed on the ground. Tsukaimon looked over at the dinosaur, noticing the lack of damage on it. Tailmon looked over at him expectantly. The small Patamon clone nodded. Suddenly he was incased in a bunch of digimon once again.
"Tsukaimon Evolve! Airdramon!" Once the digicode subsided, Tsukaimon was in his adult form once again. The flying dragon flapped his wings hard. "God Tornado!" the wind from his wings flapped around the dinosaur, obstrucking his vision. Airdramon turned around to face the group of five humans.
"What are you waiting for!? Run!" the vaccine dragon yelled. Harry soon complied, dragging Ginny and Hermione, who couldn't seem to move, along with him. Cedric soon followed him. Harry looked back to see his cousin not budging from his spot.
"Dudley! What are you doing? Move!" Harry shouted. The overweight boy complied with the plea, moving after the group but lagging behind. Airdramon turned back to the dinosaur digimon who had broken free from the tornado.
"Good… Now I don't have to worry about them." Airdramon said. Suddenly a bunch of needle-like blast shot out from his mouth. "Spinning Needle!" When the blast collided with Allomon, Airdramon turned towards his feline comrade. "You should run after them too. We don't know how long Harry will be able to maintain his evolved form if they're attacked." Tailmon just nodded as she took off after the human's. Suddenly Airdramon was forced to dodge a burst of flame from his opponent.
'Of course now I have to worry about myself.' Airdramon thought as he prepared to attack once again.
-----------------------------
"Do you think that we're far enough from the battle yet?" Hermione asked, obviously not liking being dragged around by anyone. Ginny, after hearing so much about the Boy-Who-Lived, would have normally blushed at how he was dragging her away from danger, although the circumstances prevented that. Harry stopped suddenly.
"I think we're far enough away for now." Harry said as he let go of the two girls. Harry looked over behind him to see Cedric and Dudley running up towards him. Cedric was panting slightly, and Dudley seemed really winded. Ginny looked over at the overweight boy with some showing of concern.
"Are you alright?" she asked. Dudley didn't answer her…if he even heard her through his loud breathing. After a few minutes, Dudley looked over at Harry to see that he wasn't affected that much at all.
'Now I know why I could hardly ever catch him.' Dudley thought. He turned to Ginny. "I'll live." Dudley said, not trying to talk to Harry as much as possible. Hermione easily picked up on this.
'What exactly is going on between Harry and his cousin?' She thought. 'They said something about hatred, but I thought they were just joking. They live in the same house! How could they hate each other!?' She was shaken out of her thoughts when Cedric began to speak.
"So, I'm guessing that we should wait here, right?" Cedric said. Suddenly Tailmon ran and joined the group.
"I'm guessing that would be best." Tailmon said, not winded in the slightest. Harry looked over at the adult cat oddly.
"Where's Tsukaimon?" the black haired boy asked. Tailmon looked over at him.
"Tsukaimon's still dealing with Allomon." Tailmon answered simply.
No one in the group noticed a blond haired boy looking over by them. Unlike the other children, he wore something that was reminiscent of a robe, which was really unpractical for this type of world, yet was useable anyway.
"Fools." Draco said, his right hand grasping a stick similar to Cedric's while his left held a red digivice with black grips. "Pathetic Muggles, all of them." Then a rustling noise seemed to startle Cedric as he drew his version of the stick that this boy had in his possession. 'He has a wand! But why is he wearing Muggle clothes!?' The boy thought, obviously this group of children would have to be watched more closely. He was told by Devimon that he and other human's like him were charged with protecting this world once he found his Soul Core and destroyed the Baromon that was attacking him…but were these the ones. If so why did it seem that most of them were muggles…after all, muggles weren't anything like him.
Cedric looked over at where he heard the rustling noise. He pointed his wand in the direction, until a small black bouncing head moved past him, ignoring the group completely, saying something similar to 'bota'. The twelve-year-old boy re-pocketed his wand and sighed.
"I'm getting paranoid." Cedric said under his breath. No one asked what the strange stick was, and just decided to ask about it later.
"But still, eventually either Allomon or Tsukaimon's going to come back here." Harry supplied. "We really can't afford not to be ready."
"And by being ready, you mean all of us hiding behind you and Tailmon." Dudley said. Harry thought for a moment.
"Unless someone else find's their Soul Core, then yes." Harry said.
Draco looked over at the group. So they were the ones that he was supposed to find. 'Oh well, I might as well reveal myself then.' And with that thought he put his wand away and moved towards the group of children.
"So, you're the others that I'm supposed to be looking for." Draco said. Every single head turned to see Draco moving towards him.
"What is that you're wearing?" Hermione asked, confused by the blonde haired boy's attire. She faintly heard the term 'ignorant muggle' in a whisper. However Ginny and Cedric looked over at the new comer in shock.
"You wore robes on the train!" Ginny yelled. "What the hell is wrong with you!?" Draco looked over at her in mild surprise.
"Let me guess…you're a Weasley." Draco said, slight disgust entering his voice. "I hope what father said about your family is exaggerated…otherwise we're all in serious trouble."
"Just who are you?" Cedric said, notice that the boy should only be starting at Hogwarts this year, so he didn't bother to draw his wand.
"I'm Draco Malfoy." The blonde haired boy said simply, causing Ginny's eyes to bulge slightly in shock. This was the son of someone who hated her dad with a passion. Cedric just asked a simple question.
"Do you know any spells?" Cedric asked, his hand reaching into his pocket, grabbing for his wand just incase. Dracon gave him a puzzled look.
"I'm a Malfoy! Of course I know some spells." Noticing what Cedric was going to do, he added "Don't worry, I'm not going to attack all of you. I perfectly know why we're here in this world. Killing each other isn't going to do anything. Now I think its time for introductions to be in order." And with that, everyone introduced themselves… Draco's eyes betrayed some shock to hear that one of the people that he'd have to work with was Harry Potter, and even more shocked to know that he knew nothing about magic.
"Alright, now that that's settled," Tailmon said. "It would probably be wise to check out the Shrine of Spirit. We need the Soul Core hidden there." Suddenly three digimon appeared in front of the group. Namely Devidramon, Ogremon, and Musyamon.
"Well, that was easy to find them." Ogremon said cockily as he drew his club. "And that Tsukaimon isn't here… Damn, I really wanted to bash that guy into the ground a few times."
"We can do that after we retrieve the Soul Core." Musyamon said, raising his sword. Devidramon just growled. Harry looked over towards the three digimon.
"Damnit!" Harry yelled, already grabbing his digivice.
"What's wrong?" Dudley asked.
"It's those three Patamon from before!" Harry yelled. Tailmon growled in rage.
"I knew it was a mistake to let those guys live!" the white feline yelled. She was about to pounce when she noticed Harry grab his digivice.
"Tailmon, get everyone to the Shrine of Spirit and find the Soul Core. There isn't much time." Harry said. On the digivices screen the outline of a knight holding a sword appeared on it. Harry just lifted up his digivice, and his right arm had the back of his hand facing away from him. A single ring of that digicode formed around it. He then brought the digivice and his hand together. "Soul Core Evolution!" He yelled. He then pulled the digivice down away from the hand as the digicode swirled around his body, as his clothes seemed to disappear as his form became black. Suddenly white armor formed on his body and in a flash of light a large knight was in Harry's place. He was wearing white armor. The areas between each part of the armor was black. A helmet completely covered his head. "Paladinmon!" the new digimon yelled as his transformation was complete.
Paladinmon now stood as majestic as he was when he first appeared. Harry looked over at his body in shock. 'Must be instinctive.' Out loud he shouted, "Run!" All of the children and Tailmon moved deeper into the forest.
That is except for Draco. Draco just raised his digivice up. On the digivice's screen the outline of a knight holding a demonic sword appeared. Draco brought his hand above his head, a single ring of digicode forming around it. Dracon then brought his hand down to his digivice. " Soul Core Evolution!" Draco yelled as he pulled the digivice and his hand apart, the digicode now swirling around his body. His clothes seemed to dissappear as his form became black. Dark armor with red streaks in it began to form on the child's body. In a flash of light, a large knight wearing blood-red streaked armor and holding a blade that seemed to be made of flesh appeared in Draco's place. The knight had two dark red eyes and silver shoulder length hair on his head. "ChaosKnightmon!"
Paladinmon looked up in slight shock at the new digimon next to him. While the Draco's intention had seemed to be to help him fight off these three adults, the holy knight couldn't keep the feeling that he was supposed to fight against ChaosKnightmon in check. The dark knight turned his head to the Paladin, and mouthed 'You too, huh?'Paladinmon had a pretty good idea about what Draco ment.
Suddenly a broadsword appeared in the Holy Knight's hands. Paladinmon charged at Musyamon as he raised his sword to attack. "Crusade Sword!" Paladinmon yelled as he swung down, only to have the samurai digimon dodged the blade.
"White Bird Sword!" Musyamon yelled as he slashed Paladinmon's chest with his sword, causing a gash to appear in the knight's chest. ChaosKnightmon charged towards Ogremon, intending to end this quickly. His demonic blade was raised over his head, pulsating a dark black energy.
"BLADE OF CHAOS!" ChaosKnightmon yelled as he slashed his sword down. The Ogremon blocked the attack with his club.
"Is that all you've got!" Ogremon taunted, causing a look of rage to appear on ChaosKnightmon's face.
In the heat of the battle no one had noticed that Devidramon had disappeared.
--------------------------------------------
"God Tornado!" Airdramon yelled, blasting Allomon with another blast of wind. The dinosaur howled in pain. Suddenly Airdramon heard the sounds of battle in the distance. 'No, the others!' Suddenly Airdramon bit the large dinosaurs neck, causing a ring of digicode to appear around the dinosaur as it started reverting back into its digitama form. Without even waiting to scan the data, Airdramon flew away, hoping to get to the battle before it was too late.
------------------------------------------
"Supreme King Fist!" Ogremon yelled as he thrust his arm forward, a large black fist shaped blast of energy colliding with ChaosKnightmon, sending him flying into the ground. Paladinmon landed right next to him a second later
"Damn it." ChaosKnightmon swore before picking himself off of the ground. This fight was not going in a direction that he would have liked. Suddenly the dark knights demonic blade started glowing with a dark red light as he slashed it in front of himself, sending a large red beam out towards Ogremon.
"CHAOS ARC!" ChaosKnightmon yelled in rage. The attack collided with Ogremon, sending him flying back, although he wasn't really hurt all that much. ChaosKnightmon cursed under his breath as Paladinmon brought himself off of the ground and charged at Musyamon once again. His sword had disappeared, as his arms were glowing white.
"HOLY FLARE!!!" Paladinmon shouted as the thrust both arms forward, sending to huge blast of light at the samurai digimon. Musyamon just dodged the blast, obviously being the more intelligent of the two of the hybrids opponents.
The again, since his Perfect form was the one that lost to Paladinmon when he and the other two Patamon jogressed, he might just not want to find out the strength of his adult form.
Musyamon's sword started to glow red as he slashed downwards towards Paladinmon. "Violent Dismissal!" Suddenly a light red blast of light shot out from the blade and charged at Paladinmon. Paladinmon formed a shield and sword and blocked the blast, before charging again at his opponent.
-------------------------------------
Ginny didn't know how long that she and the others had been running, until the finally stopped. She looked around, noticing everyone else but Cedric and Tailmon panting slightly. She looked around her surroundings…it seemed that they were outside a temple of some sort.
"Where are we?" Dudley asked, somewhat dismayed. Cedric looked around, as did Hermione. Finally it was the bushy haired brunette who answered.
"I think we might be at the Shrine of Spirit." The young girl said. Cedric looked around, a little confused.
"We made it here that quickly?" he asked, although it was more to himself than to others. Suddenly any other conversations that they might have had were cutoff by the sound of a large dragon roaring.
"KILL!!!!!!!!" the large Devidramon that had appeared before them shouted. Tailmon growled, while saliva dripped from the Devidramon's mouth. It would seem that when that Patamon evolved into this form, he lost any and all forms of intelligence. All four humans who were present moved backwards, trying the get away from the demon as fast as possible.
However, the Devidramon saw them. Its eyes glowed red for a second.
"Red…" the demon began, although he never finished.
"Cat's Eye!" Tailmon said, much faster than Devidramon was shouting his attack, so it interrupted his, causing his head to jerk back a few millimeters. However, it really didn't do anything more than to upset the beast once again. This time it flew very low to the ground as it was prepared to slash each human in half with his claws. Dudley screamed as Cedric went to pull out his wand once again, not really knowing if it would do any good. Suddenly Tailmon was consumed in a familiar light as she jumped in front of the dragon. She was then consumed in Digicode.
"Tailmon Slide Evolve! Lynxmon!" When the digicode subsided, Tailmon was once again a large cat made of fire. Suddenly a blast of fire shot out from the large cat's fur.
"Thermal Mane!" Lynxmon shouted as the fired collided with Devidramon, causing him to howl in pain. However it used one of its arms to swat Lynxmon away, knocking her into a tree. It then stopped as if to sense something. Suddenly, instead of charging towards the humans, it started charging towards the shrine.
"What's that weird dragon doing?" Dudley asked, asking a question that was on most of the human children's minds.
"He must be heading for the Soul Core!" Cedric yelled. Before the group had time to panic at what would happen if this digimon found it and evolved again, Devidramon slammed into a barrier. Lighting seamed to shock the dragon as it went flying back into the ground.
"What just happened?" Ginny asked, when her digivice started beeping. "Never mind that. What's happening now?"
"How are any of us supposed to know?" Hermione said, slightly annoyed. Although that didn't say as Devidramon started charging towards the human's once again. Ginny gripped her digivice tightly, while preparing to dodge out of the way.
-------------------------------------
Both Paladinmon and ChaosKnightmon went flying into the ground once again.
'Darn it!' Paladinmon thought. 'Why can't I beat this guy? I mean, I defeated SkullSatamon easily enough, and he was a Perfect. This guy is just an adult.' Paladinmon looked over towards his ally.
"ChaosKnightmon! This doesn't make any sense! We should've been able to stop these two by now!" Paladinmon shouted.
"I know that!" ChaosKnightmon spat back irritably. Suddenly ChaosKnightmon placed his sword to his side as black light gathered around it. Suddenly the dark knight charged towards Musyamon, deciding to switch his opponent.
"BLADE OF CHAOS!" ChaosKnightmon shouted as he slashed his sword across the samurai digimon's chest, leaving a large gash in the armor as Musyamon went flying into the ground. The samurai digimon didn't stay in that position long though, as he jumped up and slashed his sword in front of ChaosKnightmon.
"White Bird Sword!" ChaosKnightmon dodged the sword slash as he dropped his own demonic blade, his arm glowing black.
"DARKNESS KNUCKLE!" ChaosKnightmon yelled as he thrust his fist into Musyamon's chest, wondering why Ogremon wasn't helping his teammate.
"HOLY FLARE!"
Suddenly Ogremon went flying into Musyamon, propelled by a huge beam of light. ChaosKnightmon looked over where it came from to she Paladinmon with both of his arms forward, his hands even smoking from the blast. Both Adult digimon looked over at the two hybrids in rage.
"You… will not get away with this!" Musyamon yelled.
"We'll see…" ChaosKnightmon yelled as his blade flew into his hand. Before he could do anything however, something happened.
"GOD TORNADO!" Airdramon yelled as he appeared above the battle and blasted both adult digimon with his blast of wind, sending them both flying into trees. Musyamon looked over towards Ogremon.
"We have to run." Musyamon mouthed as Ogremon nodded. And then suddenly, both adult digimon ran into the forest. Airdramon landed on the ground and was consumed in Digicode. After it cleared he was Tsukaimon again.
"It's a good thing that I got here in time." Tsukaimon said, then he looked over at ChaosKnightmon. He looked puzzled. "Who's did he evolve from?"
"Not anyone that you know." Paladinmon said. Then ChaosKnightmon looked around. "Wait a minute…where did that Devidramon go?" Suddenly Paladinmon's eyes went wide.
"He must have gone after the others!" Paladinmon said. Paladinmon looked around for a second… and they went in the direction that Muysamon and Ogremon ran off to. ChaosKnightmon swore as Tsukaimon perched himself on Paladinmon's shoulder.
"Then let's get going then!" Tsukaimon said as both hybrids charged off after their enemies.
----------------------------------------
Suddenly bright light shot out from the Shrine of Spirit, the blast hitting Devidramon straight in the chest, knocking the adult digimon to the ground.
"What's going on?" Cedric asked as Hermione looked over at the bright light.
"Why are you asking us?" Dudley asked, shielding his eyes. Hermione eventually had to do the same, as the light was two bright for her. Cedric kept himself focused on the adult dragon digimon, who had gotten up and started growling with rage. Eventually he turned towards Ginny, a hungry look on his face.
"KILL!!!!" the digimon shouted, as it charged towards the red haired girl.
"Ginny! Get out of the way!" Lynxmon shouted, distressed that no matter what she did, she wouldn't be able to get in front of the girl and the dragon in time.
Suddenly a light shot out from the shrine and collided with Ginny's digivice. The bright light caused Devidramon to pause for a moment, looking over at the girl in confusion. Suddenly the light died down and Ginny looked at her digivice.
"Well, I couldn't have asked for a better time." Ginny said as she held up her digivice. On the digivice's screen, an outline of a biped fox appeared. Ginny lifted up her hand as a single ring of digicode apperaed around it. She pressed her hand to her digivice. "Soul Core Evolution!" She yelled as she pulled her hand away. The Digicode left her hand as it swirled around her body, her form going black as her clothes seemed to melt away. Suddenly something that seemed to be part of a fox costume appeared to go over the girl's form. In a flash of light Ginny was now a human sized bipedal fox white sliver fur and brown eyes. This figure had two blue shin guards on her shins and two blue gauntlets on her hands. "HolyRenamon!"
Hermione, Cedric, Dudley, and Lynxmon looked over at Ginny with awe. "She actually did it." Hermione said, her eyes transfixed on the fox digimon.
"But will something that small actually be able to do anything?" Cedric asked. Suddenly Devidramon charged towards HolyRenamon in rage. He lifted up his arm as energy gathered around his claws.
"Crimson Nail!" the large dragon yelled as he slashed at HolyRenamon…
Only to meet air as she disappeared.
Devidramon howled in anger, looking around frantically for any sign of the newly evolved hybrid.
"Up here!" a voice called out from behind the dragon. Devidramon turned as he looked up to see HolyRenamon floating up in the air with her arms crossed over her body. "Spirit Arrowheads!" she yelled as she moved her arms to her sides as a bunch of multicolored beams of light shot out from where her arms were. All of the beams tore into the dragon's flesh, drawing blood as it demon cried out in pain.
"KILL!" The demonic dragon roared again as he flew up into the air, charging after HolyRenamon. The fox digimon disappeared once again and then reappeared on the ground.
"Lynxmon! I'm going to need some help here!" HolyRenamon shouted as she looked over towards the group.
"Right." The large fire cat said as she moved closer to the Hybrid digimon. Suddenly the flames on her back shot off towards Devidramon. "Thermal Mane!" Lynxmon shouted as the flames left her body. Devidramon dodged the flames and charged at HolyRenamon once again. Suddenly white light began gathering around HolyRenamon's right arm as she poised herself to strike. As Devidramon got within striking distance, he raised his arm up to strike the small hybrid. Suddenly HolyRenamon disappeared once again.
White light dance across Devidramon's right shoulder as HolyRenamon shouted out "White Claw!" Blood shot out of the evil dragon's wound as the fox digimon landed on the ground behind him. The large dragon screamed in pain, it's vision going red.
"She's so fast!" Cedric remarked.
"Yeah…wow…" Dudley said, a star struck look on his face. Hermione looked over at him.
"Please don't tell me I'm seeing what I think I'm seeing." Hermione remarked. Dudley just ignored her.
"KIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!" Devidramon roared as he charged towards HolyRenamon once again.
"Is that the only word that you know how to say?" HolyRenamon said with a smirk on her face as she jumped up into the air, crossing her arms over her chest once gain.
"Spirit Arrowhead!" she yelled as she moved her arms to her sides, many blast of light colliding with the Adult level digimon's skin, causing him to roar in pain and annoyance.
"Wild Nail Rush!" Lynxmon shouted as she scratched Devidramon with her claws. Devidramon howled in pain as he swung his tail towards the large fire cat. Lynxmon dodged out of the way as HolyRenamon charged towards Devidramon once again. White light began to gather around her white paw. The fox digimon jumped as she pulled her arm back.
"WHITE---"
"CRIMSON NAIL!" Devidramon yelled as he slashed HolyRenamon in mid air, sending the hybrid to the ground. Devidramon growled, as he smelled fresh blood. HolyRenamon clutched a wound on her chest, blood oozing out of the gash.
'Damn it…' HolyRenamon thought.
"He actually hit her…" Dudley said in disbelief. Cedric pulled out his wand again, hoping that it would have a much better effect this time around than it did against SkullSatamon. He aimed it at the gash on the dragon's shoulder. Green light started to gather around his wand as Cedric decided to avoid fooling around, as Devidramon charged closer towards the fallen HolyRenamon.
"Avada Kedavra!" Cedric yelled as the light shot out towards Devidramon. The green blast passed over HolyRenamon's head, causing the fox digimon's eyes to widen with shock as it collided with the dragon's wound. The large dragon roared in extreme pain as the curse's energy spread through his body, although the blast didn't kill him. "Ginny! Finish it before the pain leaves him!" the older boy yelled. White light gathered around both of the fox digimon's paws as she charged towards the dragon.
"DOUBLE WHITE CLAW!!!!" HolyRenamon screamed as she slashed her claws around Devidramon's throat, causing him to move back. A black ring of digicode appeared around his body as his formed turned completely black. Suddenly Ginny's digivice appeared in HolyRenamon's hand.
"Dragon of evil, be purified by my spirit!" HolyRenamon chanted as she slashed her digivice forward. "Digicode Scan!" she yelled as the digicode around Devidramon shot off into her digivice. After all of the digicode went into the digivice, Devidramon's body shrunk back into the form of Patamon. The small digimon fell to the floor and opened his eyes. He took one look at HolyRenamon's body and started going into shock.
"What have I done!?" he shouted, looking over at the hybrids body as she devolved back into Ginny. She was clutching her body, although the blood had disappeared, as well as the actual cut.
Cedric, Hermione, and Dudley ran off towards the ground, as did Lynxmon as she slide evolved into Tailmon.
"Are you alright?" Dudley asked as Hermione grabbed Ginny in an attempt to support the young red haired girl.
"I'm fine…" Ginny said through stressed teeth. "It just hurts a lot…"
"WHAT HAVE I DONE!?" the small Patamon screamed, not seeming to realize what was going on. He started going into convulsions as he vomited. Everyone looked over at the small digimon.
"WHAT WAS I GOING TO DO!?" Patamon screamed again, vomit still dripping down his face. Hermione sighed and picked up the small digimon as Tailmon made a motion to sharpen her claws, obviously wanting to take the chance for revenge against this murderer. "What was I…" the small digimon was then interrupted by the arrival of Ogremon and Musyamon.
"So, they actually managed to defeat you…" Ogremon said. The Patamon turned his eyes over to the other two adult digimon.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!?" Patamon screamed, jumping out of Hermione's arms roughly, flapping his wings to keep himself up in the air.
"Why, we helped up gain power, just like the three of us always wanted." Musyamon said. "Why don't you rejoin us to and help us destroy these allies of Tsukaimon's?" the samurai digimon asked.
"Air Shot!" Patamon yelled as he inhaled air and fired the blast towards Musyamon, doing nothing against the adult virus digimon. Musyamon raised his sword.
"So that's your answer. White Bird Sword!" the large samurai digimon shouted as he charged towards the group…
And slashed his sword at Ginny.
Ginny brought her arms up to futilely block the sword strike…expecting her death to come at any second.
It never came.
Patamon jumped up in front of the sword strike and took the full force of the blow. Ginny just stared at the small digimon who had just recently tried to kill her and her friends in shock. The small flying mammal digimon's body fell to the ground, lifeless as blood poured from his side.
"Patamon!" she yelled, her eyes, along with Tailmon's showing pure shock as Hermione and Dudley had similar looks of disbelief on their faces.
'Patamon…' Tailmon thought weakly. 'Even though you tried to kill us, you sacrificed yourself to save Ginny. I don't understand.'
"You bastards…" Cedric said. "You killed your own brother!" Ogremon just laughed.
"That traitor is no brother of ours!" Ogremon said. "And now…" he paused, black energy coursing around his fist as he raised it.
"You all die!" Musyamon shouted as he raised his sword.
"GOD TORNADO!" Suddenly a blast of wind knocked the two adult digimon back as Airdramon came into view.
"…Tsu…kai…mon…" Patamon said weakly. Ginny moved over towards the bleeding child digimon as Paladinmon and ChaosKnightmon ran up towards the group.
"HOLY FLARE!" Paladinmon shouted as he fired off a white blast of energy at Musyamon, hitting the large Samurai in the back, sending him flying into. ChaosKnightmon raised his blade and charge, black energy swirling around the demonic sword. Ogremon turned around towards the other two hybrids.
"Not you guys again!" Ogremon shouted.
"Blade of Chaos!" ChaosKnightmon shouted, bringing the sword down at Ogremon, sending him flying. Both Adult digimon brought themselves off of the ground.
"Hey Musyamon!" Ogremon said.
"What?" the samurai digimon said, propping himself up on his sword.
"Why don't we make a strategic retreat?" Ogremon suggested. Musyamon looked over at him.
"That's a good idea." The samurai digimon said tiredly as the both ran into the forest.
Paladinmon and ChaosKnightmon went to follow them before blue digicode completely consumed them. When the digicode receded, the two digimon were back to being Harry and Draco.
"Damnit! We're letting them get away!" Draco exclaimed as both he and Harry fell to the ground, exhausted. Harry then looked to see Ginny bent down over the dying Patamon.
'Is that one of the Patamon that attacked us back at City of Light?' the black haired boy thought. Airdramon landed on the ground and devolved into Tsukaimon. The purple digimon moved over towards Tailmon.
"What happened here?" Tsukaimon asked. Tailmon just looked over at him, before pointing to Ginny and Patamon.
"Patamon, don't die…please…this happened to you because of me…" Ginny said. The small child digimon looked over towards the red haired girl.
"Don't…worry, this is to make up for what I've done." And with that the child digimon closed his eyes.
"No!" Ginny cried out in anguish as light burst out of her digivice and hit Patamon. Suddenly the small gerbil digimon was consumed in a bunch of blue digicode. Everyone thought it was over, until they hear something they didn't expect.
"Patamon Slide Evolve!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once again Cedric's use of Avada Kedavra is justified due to the monster that was trying to kill him and everyone.
Preview for Chapter 3: After the tiring battle that the chosen have just faced they end up resting for the night. However when a rouge digimon attacks, and every chosen who can evolve is out of energy, not to mention that there isn't a Soul Core anywhere nearby, it's up to the Digimon to protect the group.
