A Digimon Frontier Fanfic
By Haru Glory
A/N: Thanks for reviewing everyone and I am very, very sorry for not being able to upload sooner and on schedule. I ran into a little trouble with our internet connection and had to wait for a while before I could connect to the internet again. But anyways, enough about that, here's chapter thirty-one of CoT: Of What the Future Brings! Enjoy!!!
Chronicles of Time: Of What the Future Brings!
Chapter 31: A New Calamarimon!?
Meanwhile, as all those are happening, the bearers of the spirit and water were still searching for their own enemy's fortress. Right now, JP and Erika are resting under the starlite sky near the Hub Beach.
"So, what kind of enemy is this Crusadermon?" Erika asked.
"Crusadermon? She's Dynasmon's partner." JP recalled what he knows about their enemy, "They used to be good guys here in the digi-world, known as the royal knights. But, Lucemon corrupted their mind and told them that they will be given the power and the chance to rule over the human world."
"Then that explains why they joined Chronosmon." Erika said, "Earth's really lucky that you managed to defeat them both before."
"Actually…" JP said, "It was Lucemon who destroyed and absorbed their digi-code. He only used them to achieve freedom, and after their part was done, he mercilessly destroyed them."
At this, Erika nodded, knowing very well that there are those beings – human or digimon otherwise that would use another just to achieve what they want.
"Right now, I'm having doubts." JP voiced out his thoughts.
"Doubts?" Erika asked, surprised.
JP nodded, "About whether we can win against Crusdermon…if the power that we both possess is enough."
"Crusadermon may be tough, but I don't think she's THAT though." Erika said, "Is she?"
"You have no idea how many times we lost against them, before Takuya and Koji managed to fight them equally." JP replied, "And that was with them digi-volving to their Hyper forms. We can't do that. Right now, I'm only able to evolve to my beast and human forms and you're only able to evolve with the human spirit."
"And you think that's not enough?" Erika asked.
"Not enough? It's far from that." JP said, "I can even say that we have a point one percent of winning."
"In other words you're saying that we can't win?" Erika said.
"By ourselves…yes." JP replied.
"What are you trying to say then? That we give up?" Erika asked.
"Not give up, we'll just call the others using our D-Tectors and tell them that we can't beat Crusadermon by ourselves and we need their help." JP told her his idea.
"Without even trying?" Erika continued to ask.
"Erika, I know what you're thinking, but if we fight her by ourselves, we'll lose – not only the battle but maybe even our life!" JP replied.
"We'll lose our lives anyway." Erika said, "Whether it be by fighting against Crusadermon or nor, we will eventually die."
"Erika…" JP muttered.
"It's not that I want to die, of course not! It's just that I don't want the others to think that we can't do anything by ourselves. Even if there is only a point one percent probability that we will win with our current strength, we can still use that point one." Erika said.
What Erika said stunned JP and he remembered what his friend and rival once said, "Courage is not just about facing your fears. It's about doing something knowing that there's a possibility to fail. Nothing we do in life has a 100 rate of success. It's most likely that the things that we have done…has even as small as a .05 of success, and even so we managed to succeed, it's not so different in everything that we do…no matter what the instance may be."
JP smiled as he remembered those words, and said, "You sound just like Takuya, now."
"What?" Erika asked surprised.
"He told us something like that before…whenever we thought we can't win." JP reminisced, "And you're right…"
"Finally." Erika thought.
Then, thinking about Takuya and his other companions, reminded JP one other thing…
"You're actually right!" JP suddenly exclaimed catching Erika in surprise, "We may have a chance after all."
"Really?" Erika asked, "How?"
"Attack combinations." JP replied, "We used that technique before, when we fought against Sefiritmon – Mercurymon's beast spirit. We combined all of our attacks together to create a new attack that he can't copy. Crusadermon might already know all of our attacks as well, so, maybe it's a good idea to use that tactic. What do you think?"
"I'm okay with that." Erika replied.
"What time is it?" JP asked.
"Huh? It's 6:33 pm…I think." Erika replied as she looked at her watch.
"The it's still pretty early." JP said, "I think you should try and digi-volve to your beast spirit. And maybe you'll be able to control it at once just like how Zoe did."
"But is it safe to try that out now?" Erika asked.
"Sure." JP nodded, "Much safer now than during the fight."
Still unsure whether it was a good idea or not, Erika still took out her blue-colored digi-vice and readied herself to try.
"Alright, first why don't you digi-volve to Lanamon." JP instructed.
Erika nodded.
DIGI-SPIRIT! EVOLUTION!!
LANAMON!!!
"Great." JP said.
"Now what?" Lanamon asked.
JP could tell that she was nervous, so he told her to first calm down.
"It's not going to help you to be nervous, you know." JP added, "Besides, there's nothing wrong if you can't control it the first time around. I'm sure I can stop you from going berserk or anything."
"And I should be relaxed with that?" Lanamon asked.
"C'mon relax already." JP coached.
Lanamon breathe deeply a couple of times before saying, "I'm relaxed and ready."
"Alright, now, digi-beast evolve." JP instructed, "Don't ask me how, you should know."
"Yeah." Lanamon replied, "Well, here it goes…"
LANAMON! SLIDE DIGI-VOLVES TO…
CALAMARIMON!!!
The moment that she digi-volved to Calamarimon, JP expected to see the disgusting looking creature that they fought before. It came a surprise to him, that the Calamarimon that they had fought before and the Calamarimon that was standing infront of him did not look the same at all…not one little bit!
Instead of a giant squid-looking creature with a hideous face. What stood before him was a Kazemon look-alike.Instead of fairy wings however there was none. There was also no helmet revealing the still-yellow eyes of the original Calamarimon. She still has her sharp claws. To make the discreption short, the Calamarimon that stood before JP, looked more like a mermaid than a monster.
"No way!" JP thought, "Can this be possible? There's no way that this could happen. I thought the digimon's data – how they look like, cannot be changed…!"
"What's wrong JP?" Calamarimon asked.
"Whoa!" JP exclaimed, "You…recognize me? I mean – you don't feel anything weird like some sort of vibe that's telling you to do something…? An instinct taking over perhaps?"
"What are you talking about?" Calamarimon asked.
JP smiled, "You certainly have a lot of surprises in stored for me. You did it Erika! You're controlling the beast spirit now!"
"I did?" Calamarimon asked, then notices for the first time that she was indeed controlling her own body, "Yeah! I did!"
But even before the beast type digimon could jump for joy and for them to celebrate, Calamarimon suddenly dedigi-volved back into Erika.
"What…happened?" Erika asked.
"I guess we have to work on that for a little while before we can head onto making that combination attack." JP sighed, "But that was better than you causing havoc or something."
"Yeah, you're right." Erika said, "I can try again if you like."
"Are you sure?" JP asked, "You might be tired, it's okay if we sleep now and try again tomorrow."
"It's okay, JP." Erika replied, "I'm not yet tired anyway, besides, the sooner I manage to completely control Calamarimon the better, right?"
JP laughed, "I guess you're right. But if you insist that you're not yet tired, then, we can continue."
"Hey JP, mind if I ask you something?" Erika asked.
"Uh, besides that one?" JP asked back, and getting a yes from Erika, replied, "Yeah, okay."
"Why were you so surprised to see me digi-volve to Calamarimon?" Erika asked.
"What?" JP asked back.
"Why were you surprised to see me digi-volve to Calamarimon?" Erika repeated, "Don't tell me you didn't believe that I could do it."
"No, that's not it." JP replied, "It's just…you digi-volved to a different…err…version of Calamarimon."
"What do you mean, a different version?" Erika asked.
"Well, the Calamarimon we fought with was err…weird looking. But the Calamarimon you transformed into was…" JP explained.
"Was what?" Erika asked.
"Uhh…I…um…" JP was trying to search for words.
"Yes?" Erika continued to ask.
"I thought you…were…I mean…are…uhh…" JP still continued to search for words.
"C'mon, spit it out already, JP." Erika pouted.
"Ithinkyourebeautiful!" JP spitted out, hoping that Erika would not understand what he just said.
But the moment that those words escaped his lips, he began to blush wildly and Erika understood at once what he just said, which caused her to blush as well. No one spoke for a couple of minuted, nor did they dare look in each other for fear of what the other might say.
After a couple of mintes have passed, JP decided to tell Erika to try and digi-volve again.
"Err…why don't you digi-volve again…maybe you'll be able to control it this time." JP said.
"Umm…sure." Erika replied.
To be continued…
