A/N: Thanks everyone for the reviews and everything else (especially those who prayed). I can't believe I already got over 200 reviews for this story. Anyways, you guys want to know what Zoe did when she found out what happened to Takuya? Well, here it is...
Chronicles of Time: Of What the Future Brings
Chapter 35: Zoe Saves Her Prince!
Zoe hasn't slept since Takuya left, she was worried.
"Something doesn't feel right." Zoe thought to herself as she sat deep in thought at her bed. But since she promised to wait for him, she could not go out and run after him.
And she thought about that until she finally drifted into an uneasy sleep.
Zoe was awoken by the loud chattering and noise the next morning. Out of curiosity, Zoe went outside of the room and saw what the ruckus was all about.
"Neemon, how'd you escape?" Bokomon asked, surprised to see his friend back, safe and sound.
"Takuya helped me out." Neemon replied, scratching his head.
"Takuya?!" Everyone asked surprised.
"Neemon, you're back!" Zoe joined in, "Then that means Takuya was successful!"
Neemon nodded.
"But, where is Takuya?" Bokomon asked.
And for the first time, Zoe noticed that Flamon was not in the crowd that encircled the little, yellow digimon.
"That's right, where is he?" Zoe asked as well.
"He is fighting against Yukiaramon." Neemon answered. "He asked me to go on ahead and escape last night."
"What!?" Everyone exclaimed in unison
"Last night?" Zoe asked, "The Flamon should have been back by now, unless…"
Just then, A Guilmon came running from outside of the headquarters.
"Everyone, Yukiaramon has called for the citizens of the whole town to meet in front of his mansion!" Guilmon told the others.
"He's still alive?" Greymon asked.
"Then that would mean…" Garurumon said.
"…no, it can't be!" Zoe gasped.
"Then what are we waiting for, everyone?" Bokomon asked, "Let's go, maybe Flamon managed to loose Yukiaramon and escape, maybe that's why Yukiaramon's calling for the whole town, he wants to know if anybody has seen him."
"I hope that's the case." Zoe said, very worried.
And so, everyone in the HQ began to head out towards the mansion. But before Zoe could even put a foot out of the door, Bokomon stopped her…
"I don't think it's such a good idea for you to come with us, Zoe." Bokomon said, "There has never been a human here since we came here. You'll get in trouble if he sees you."
"But, Takuya, he might be in trouble." Zoe said.
"I know you're worried about him, Zoe." Bokomon said, "But, think about what could happen if Yukiaramon sees you. It might cause trouble. Just relax and we'll tell you what the whole 'meeting with the whole town' was all about."
Zoe sighed knowing that Bokomon has a point and that everyone else might be in trouble if she chose to digivolve and join the whole town since they already met Yukiaramon. So she agreed to stay behind along with Neemon who apparently did not want to even come within ten feet of the mansion.
When everyone was gathered right in front of Yukiaramon's mansion, Yukiaramon appeared before them, still wearing the same cloak which covered every inch of him save his eyes.
"So, everyone's already gathered here…" Yukiaramon said eyeing everyone that was right in front of him with his cold, steel gaze.
"Why did you call us and so early in the morning?" One digimon shouted over the noise of the others.
"I'm glad you ask." Yukiaramon replied.
Meanwhile, Zoe could not help but not follow Bokomon's words. She knows where she must be and because she was so curious, she left without even telling Neemon.
Hidden near the fence that was not so far from where Yukiaramon stood, listening to every word that the evil tyrant said.
"Why do I have a bad feeling about all of this?" Zoe asked herself, ready to take out her digi-vice and digi-volve if something got out of hand.
"Someone broke into my mansion last night," began Yukiaramon, "And freed one of my prisoners."
At this everyone did not move, they know very well as Yukiaramon did, that the evil digimon that was right in front of them already have an idea as to who might have sent the one who freed Neemon, although Bokomon really had nothing to do with it.
"You rebels have annoyed me long enough." Yukiaramon continued, "And it seems that base on the recent events that have transpired in this city, I would have thought that you all would have learned your lesson NOT to mess with me!"
Everyone got themselves ready, expecting a fight yet knowing well enough that they might not stand a chance just like for the past times that they have tried to defeat the tyrant.
"And yet it seems that you have not listened to my warnings and the things that I already have done to make it clear." Yukiaramon continued, "But maybe this would make this a little different."
And with that, Yukiaramon snapped his fingers. What everyone saw made them gasp in surprise, with his whole body frozen, stood Flamon.
"Takuya…" Zoe muttered, surprised and anger filling her.
"Takuya!" the others exclaimed.
"This has gone too far, Yukiaramon!" Bokomon shouted.
"Well, if it isn't the little pip squeak that leads the rebels," Yukiaramon smirked, "you have some guts having no ability to fight and all. Do you want to join this pathetic fool, frozen for all eternity?"
"At least he's a better leader than you'll ever be!" Shouted Greymon, "We won't allow you to do whatever you wish any longer."
"You want to fight me?" Yukiaramon asked, "Maybe you have indeed forgotten how many times I have defeated you – all of you – already. But I don't mind finishing everything now."
"Fine, we'll show you that we are no longer pushovers!" Shouted Garurumon as well.
That was when Zoe could not stand it any longer, knowing what she needed to do to free Flamon from his icy prison. Immediately, Zoe rushed to the aid of the others, holding her digi-vice.
"I can not forgive you!" Zoe shouted.
DIGI-BEAST SPIRIT! EVOLUTION!!
ZEPHYRMON!!!
"I was hoping you'll show up." Yukiaramon said, undaunted.
"Zoe, what are you doing here?" Bokomon asked, "I told you to stay at the HQ!"
"Sorry, Bokomon," Zephyrmon replied, "I just can't let any of you be hurt, this is between me and that monster!"
"This should rather be interesting." Yukiaramon said, as he poised himself to battle.
Zephyrmon did not wait for her foe to attack, immediately she was the first to do so.
"GILGAMESH SLICE!" Zoe attacked at once.
"Your attacks are futile!" Yukiaramon shouted as he literally pushed the attack away.
"Be careful, Zephyrmon!" Shouted Bokomon, "Attacks like that has very little effect on him!"
Zephyrmon nodded, "If that is so, then how about this? WIND OF PAIN!!!"
Yukiaramon laughed as he pushed the attack away once again, "Why don't you just give up? You can be with your friend if that's what you want? Well, maybe this'll help! FREEZING POINT BULLET!"
"Zephyrmon, dodge that attack or it'll freeze you!" Greymon shouted at which Zephyrmon dodged just in time before the attack hit her.
"Thanks," Zephyrmon said as she flew above the ground.
Yukiaramon glared at the crowd that encircled their battle field, "You are all getting annoying, STAY OUT OF OUR FIGHT!!!"
With that, Yukiaramon attacked everyone with his Freezing Point Bullet freezing them right at their spot. Zephyrmon, who was still flying high above the air, was angered at what she saw.
"That should keep all of you quiet!" Yukiaramon said as he looked up over to Zephyrmon, "Now, you're next."
"You really are a monster!" Zephyrmon said, "First you froze Takuya, and now you've frozen even those who are not part of this battle! I cannot take this any longer!"
"What can you do?" Yukiaramon asked, "You know you don't possess enough power to fight against me, you're weak. I've already dealt with you before at the Data Line, I can do that again. And this time, I won't make any mistakes!"
"Takuya, Bokomon, Greymon, Garurumon…everyone," Zephyrmon thought, "I know I can do this, there's no such thing as not having any weakness. If my long range attacks don't work against him, then there must be some other way."
"I have more things to do," Yukiaramon said as he changed his hand from the cannon-type to his sword type hand, "So, let's finish this fast."
With those words, Yukiaramon jumped right in front of the hovering Zephyrmon and with a speed as quick as the speed of light itself, he slashed Zephyrmon into dedigi-volveing back to Zoe.
"Had enough already?" Yukiaramon asked.
"I'm not finish yet, I can still digi-volve and fight." Zoe said as she stood up wobbling as she did so.
"I admire you're will for a woman," Yukiaramon said, "But it's over, you don't have the power to fight against me, I'll make freezing you quick."
Zoe could not help but close her eyes, trying to hold back tears. "Takuya…I'm sorry."
"I guess you've already accepted your defeat then." Yukiaramon said as he converted his hand once again to a cannon as aimed at Zoe. "This fight…is over."
And with that Yukiaramon fired his Freezing Point Bullet attack, just when the attack was about to hit Zoe, someone jumped in the way.
"What the --!" Yukiaramon shouted in surprised, which caused Zoe to open her eyes and see what surprised the tyrant.
The digimon who jumped in the way of the bullet surprised Zoe.
"Neemon?" Zoe gasped.
Neemon, whose body began to freeze said, "Zoe, you're stronger than you think you are. Remember everything you have learned about strength, you are a human who can turn into a digimon. If the digimon part of you cannot beat him, then make the human part of you help the other part."
And with those words, Neemon was also frozen.
"Neemon…" Zoe muttered.
"What a fool," Yukiaramon said, "He could have saved his life if he chose to hide, and yet he just has to do that. He really is an idiot."
Zoe however, was deep in thought again, something about what Neemon said was right. All the while that she has been fighting; she was only using the power of the digimon that she turned into, forgetting what she had learned during the fight with Lucemon's Satan mode.
"Neemon's right," Zoe whispered to herself, "Just like Kazemon said before, I'm not the only one who's fighting…so are they, but I have to unleash her power…her true power."
"What are you mumbling about now?" Yukiaramon asked, "Don't tell me you intend to fight me again."
"No." Zoe replied, gripping her digi-vice harder, "I intend to defeat you!"
"Defeat me?" Yukiaramon asked as laughter filled the air, "Don't make me laugh, you're already beaten."
"Not yet." Then holding her digi-vice close to her heart she prayed, "Please, give me the power. The power I need to defeat this monster and save my friends!"
With those words, the digi-vice shinned its purple light. Zoe knew right then that it was time to digi-volve. Words of what she must say appeared in her mind, and she knew what to do with them.
DOUBLE DIGI-SPIRIT! EVOLUTION!!
JET SILPHMON!!!
"What the --?!" Yukiaramon shouted, surprised at the sudden turn of events, "How did you --?!"
"There's more to power than just having the ability to defeat your opponents, Yukiaramon." Jet Silphmon said.
"Oh really?" Yukiaramon said, "You may have digi-volved but you're still no match for me!"
With that Yukiaramon lunged forward again, but this time, Jet Silphmon was ready for him and she evaded his attack easily.
"You don't know what I can or cannot do." Jet Silphmon said, "So don't tell me that I cannot defeat you! ULTRA TURBULENCE!!!"
The attack hit the digimon directly and set him flying over to the fence. This time, Yukiaramon was wounded, this time, not just a scratch but the attack also tore his cloak off revealing his true form.
Part machine and part digimon. Yukiaramon's digimon part looked like a dark version of Agunimon, instead of yellow hair, it was a fierce red, and the armor was dark with color. It would have been normal for him to have a mechanical part, but it wasn't and you can tell that he was a part of an experiment gone wrong.
"Impressive…" Yukiaramon said as he stood up, his eyes burned in hatred now more than ever, "I did not expect that someone would be able to do that to me, much less a woman."
"You put yourself in a higher position than others, you are too confident." Jet Silphmon said.
"Haven't you heard the saying about the strong having everything?" Yukiaramon asked, "I am strong, I have power and that is why I have the right to rule those who are weak. I am known for my strength! And I shall be known for it for all eternity!"
"You're wrong." Jet Silphmon argued, "A person's strength has nothing to do with being famous, it's his deeds. You're not famous at all, no one cares about you. They care only about one thing and that's putting you to your place! Not above them but below them!"
With that Jet Silphmon attacked once again with her Ultra Turbulence technique, "That's for all the others that you have killed!" She said as the attack hit Yukiaramon.
She attacked once more, this time offering her attack for Garurumon and Greymon. It was soon followed by another attack that she offered for Bokomon and Neemon; this attack blew Yukiaramon to the mansion which caused the mansion to collapse.
But as soon as the smoke cleared out, Yukiaramon jumped from out of the rubble and countered Jet Silphmon's attacks, but she just blocked them with her staff.
"And this," Jet Silphmon said before she attacked Yukiaramon with everything she got, "Is for TAKUYA!!! JET WINTER!!!!"
"How?" Yukiaramon asked as his data began to appear, "How can there be someone stronger than me? There should only be Dynasmon and Lord Chronosmon...how?"
Jet Silphmon looked at Yukiaramon with pity as she began to capture the enemy's data saying, "Like a refreshing breeze, this digi-vice will turn you into a pure and lovely spirit! Digi-code! Capture!!"
As Jet Silphmon's digi-vice captured the digi-code of Yukiaramon, the ice that froze the citizens of the town as well as Flamon began to melt. And when Yukiaramon's digi-egg finally appeared, Jet Silphmon attacked her enemy one final time. Destroying, what was unknown to her then, one of the twelve generals.
To be continued…
